official letter falsely claiming the justice department had identified significant concerns that may have impacted the outcome of the election in multiple states did you discuss this draft letter to Georgia officials with the president of the United States and executive privilege again Trump calling the whole thing sad what has taken place here is that travesty of Justice we did nothing wrong I did nothing wrong but Trump's campaign started fundraising off his mug shot less than an hour after it was released his Republican Rivals now desperate to talk about anything else if the election ends up being about what happened in the past if it ends up being about you know personalities and and other things like that well then Biden is going to be able to sit in his basement again not have to justify his record as a tremendous distraction from what the average person and the average household is facing but Tim Scott and Ronda santis say if Trump's the nominee he'll support him even if he's

center of the nation's deadliest wildfire in the last century we're not recovering whole bodies we're picking up Ash some of it's crumbling that same Wildfire also Fanning the Flames of resentment

into the County Health Department from some who competed aside from the rash it started to feel like physically ill um uh cold sweats like a mild fever videos from that weekend show people crawling on their hands and knees and wading through waist-deep water typical for the event it really did not think that this was something that I should be aware of you know I was thinking I'm physically fit person so I can do the obstacles and when I looked at my skin I noticed a lot of like blisters and and kind of bumps Sonoma County Health officials say this could be a range of illnesses from mild irritation to staph infections or possibly a rare skin infection called aromonas which requires antibiotics without treatment it's more likely to move into a more serious infection Tough Mudder telling ABC News all necessary protocols were followed in preparation for and during the event and that it contacted all of the registered participants from the races to seek medical care if they develop any symptoms our thanks to Cana you may or may not remember a wild story from a couple of years ago when a fake high school football team played the best team in the country the result was ugly IMG Academy beat Bishop Sycamore High 58-0 now there's a documentary going behind the scenes of exactly how this happened IMG to kick off to Bishop Sycamore do you want my hands like this like this like that just be natural you don't have to try coach Roy Johnson told us they had a number of division one prospects [Music] Tim intercepted thanks in a pick six into the end zone that will do it do I look like a con artist the director of BS High Trayvon free is here with me in the studio Trayvon thank you so much for joining us thank you for having me you talked to a lot of people for this documentary you talked to players and students and parents and community members you even talked to the coach he was a central part in all of this how did you get him to talk to you honestly it's hard to get Roy not to talk if you really think about it he actually came to us after me and Martin my co-director Martin Desmond Roe saw the game like everybody else and Martin happened to be friends with uh a guy who works for Strahan's uh production company Ethan Lewis and Ethan called up Martin and was like hey we have the coach and he wants to talk like do you guys are you guys interested in directing this movie potentially and so we got on the phone with Roy and after like five minutes we were like absolutely like we have to do this he's a talker yeah very much so we learned a lot about the students too in this film their stories and their dreams and a lot of those cases these were upended by the events of this team what was it like hearing what they went through you know that was probably one of the hardest things I've ever done just probably in life to to sit across from these kids and hear them tell the stories of this really heartbreaking and painful experience they went through because as directors we also had to get them to a place where they were willing to talk about it in a vulnerable way because they weren't initially they were very hardened and uh you know hurt by it and they didn't want to talk about it like they wanted to like keep that push down and keep it away and try to like move forward and we were asking them to go back to a time uh in their lives where something that was so important to them was taken away and does it have Ripple effects to a lot of these guys now oh absolutely I mean a lot of them found themselves in the position where had they gone to a real school or played for a real Coach in that time frame that they had to actually play football they might have actually landed somewhere they might not have necessarily landed that in Alabama or an LSU or something like that but they would have actually had a shot playing for Roy meant they had no shot there was just no way that was going to work out for them because there was no school so there was no eligibility so you were basically playing for nothing you talk about the school a lot of people figured out pretty quickly that this school was a fraud pretty quickly into that game against IMG but but also in the film there are forged checks assaults and killing Giza I'm looking at it here everything that's in it I mean was there anything that stood out to you and surprised you you know the the ghee story was definitely surprising I did not see that coming until Pahokee started telling that story and we thought that there's no way Roy is going to admit to to doing this and as you see in the movie he does immediately um but I mean it was it was also kind of surprising to see just how far the tentacles of his manipulation spread because it wasn't just manipulating the kids because a lot of people uh think and I've seen people say like oh well like the parents are are dumb and to blame like how could they let their kids how could they evolve this and you when you watch the film you get to see and hear how he lied to them too and as a parent you're trying to protect your child's dreams right but you're also trying to protect your child from danger from predators and so when a predator shows up who's specifically praying on your child's dream it's even more difficult to protect them from that because you as a parent don't want to say hey I know football is your dream and this is your last chance to potentially make something of it but I don't want to let you go play for this guy well this story it gripped the country when it came out and that game happened and we know that officials in Ohio called for some legislative fixes to try to make sure that this doesn't happen again the state legislature didn't do anything can this happen again and what should be in place to make sure it doesn't this can absolutely happen again and the reason that the state of Ohio used in not doing anything about it was because Bishop Sycamore used a religious exemption uh for their school and they have no governance over uh the churches right and so what we should be doing is looking at just how far that exemption goes when it comes to damaging the lives of not just kids but anybody Trayvon free thank you very much the documentary is BS high you can find it on HBO and stream it on max we have for you now a staple of 80s rock who've put out

we started with how they met in 1975 both in the same production of Jesus Christ Superstar in Australia neither of us had any musical background or any training of any kind but when we met we knew something was going on because we'd sing between shows in superstorm people would come by and go wow you guys sound amazing we went on tour the next day after Superstar closed we had a number one record in Australia their self-titled debut album it happened that fast and just a year later they were on a whirlwind Tour opening for Rod Stewart but when the tour ended we got back to Australia we couldn't get arrested you know we uh we had seven in the band I think we were getting offered two hundred dollars a night to play after touring with rods yeah yeah we were we were not no nowhere nothing I went and stayed with my sister in Melbourne and and got work doing Jingles here and there and then Graham said he'd written some songs why don't you come to Adelaide and one of those songs was lost in love and I went that's a monster right there and it was their 1980 release lost in love changed everything for the British Australian rock group certified double platinum in the U.S
[Music] from the title track to All Out of Love And every woman in the world after that there was no looking back the next year they dropped the one that you love with hits like here I am three more albums in the 80s another four in the 90s and three releases so far in the 2000s there are bands that last if they have 15 or 20 years that's a successful career yeah yeah you guys are now in 47 you're selling out shows you're doing two a week all year long still we're valid in 2023 just as much as we were in 1976. making love out of nothing at all even then it's a better every woman in the world the list goes on and on they cross decades because as you were writing love songs on a guitar with piano and your voices that are as valid as you say today as relevant today as they as they would be then was there was that conscious was that a conscious decision or was that just how you were writing and singing it's just the way I I wrote songs and still do to have a conscious decision for us was very rare when we've made our first record uh which was living on the bruise didn't have a plan well we really didn't know what we were doing we just knew that we both loved this song and when Russell went in to sing it uh everything changed because suddenly it was you know beautiful song then Russell just popped it out at the end and he just happened to jump up the octave and sing it higher because he could do that [Music] Studio everyone that's it so suddenly our sound was created and when you write the kind of moving lyrics that Graham does and sing them the way Russell does the songs become a part of fans lives especially during deeply personal moments we had a young guy at a show and he said I just came out to my dad and he's disowned me and uh I was actually thinking about killing myself and I got put on one of your records or something and I thought well you know this is not worth any of this you go wow this is this is far beyond somebody paying 20 bucks for a concert and going home with somebody saying oh that was great you know actually changed somebody's lives saved saved in any case you need somebody's life so we don't take that for granted [Music] and that is at the core of Air Supply taking nothing for granted and reaching as many fans as possible [Applause] helping them do that on tour an amazing group of musicians building on those gigantic love songs with guitar solos hitting drums a solid Baseline and a charismatic pianist keeping it all together [Music] just love to play and you know we love stepping on stage and seeing people's face faces light up I mean you can't buy that you also can't buy the kind of support they get from their wives Russell married to his wife Carrie Graham first met Jody on the set of their music video for making love out of nothing at all she was cast as his love interest they later married [Music] another [Music] one now in their 70s the Legends are not slowing down in the middle of yet another world tour you guys are Rockstar yeah we've also considered ourselves always a touring rock and roll band because we don't sit on for any length of time we've done over 5300 shows in our career and no slowing down you're doing 100 a year yeah we're doing 120. so many great songs I kept going oh they've got that one and that one and that one anyway that is our show for tonight I'm Jay O'Brien in for Lindsay ABC News live is here for you all night with the latest news context and Analysis you can always find us on Hulu Roku the ABC News app and of course on abcnews.com have a good night
