00:00:00.680 --> 00:00:06.440
You're listening to KFI AM sixty wake
Up Call with me Amy King on demand

2
00:00:06.639 --> 00:00:11.359
on the iHeartRadio app. Good Morning, this is your wake up call for

3
00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:17.280
Monday, October twenty third. I'm
Amy King. It's five o'clock. Time

4
00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:20.239
to get up, get at it. We do have a chance of rain,

5
00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:24.000
more fall like temperatures. Finally,
I want to get out of sweater.

6
00:00:24.039 --> 00:00:27.039
I'm really anxious to wear a sweater, haven't. I don't think I've

7
00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:32.200
worn sweaters or a jacket for like
six months. Hey. So, seeing

8
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:38.479
that I was losing a ton of
games yesterday watching NFL and not doing well

9
00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:41.560
in my football pool, I decided
to go run some errands. So I

10
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:47.119
went on a Costco run. My
advice to you do not go to Costco

11
00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:53.320
on Sunday. It was like busier
than Disneyland, and people were mean and

12
00:00:54.159 --> 00:00:58.719
they're armed with you know, big
shopping carts. There wasn't even like then.

13
00:00:58.799 --> 00:01:03.200
The people were vultures around the food
samples. But I did get to

14
00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:04.920
try a Huggindaws bar that was good. But that was about the only thing

15
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:08.879
because men people were just hovering and
I was like, I think I'm gonna

16
00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:15.599
restrict my Costco runs to Tuesday or
maybe even Wednesday. Here's what's ahead on

17
00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:21.920
wake Up Call. Israel's military says
it is intensifying attacks as it gets ready

18
00:01:21.959 --> 00:01:26.840
for an expected ground invasion. It
has warned Palestinian civilians again to leave Northern

19
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:32.760
Gaza, saying you are risking your
lives if you do not leave. SAG

20
00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:34.959
after IT and Hollywood Studios are going
to be sitting down again for some more

21
00:01:36.000 --> 00:01:41.519
talks. Producers asked for the talks
to resume about two weeks after they broke

22
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:44.879
down. Actors have been on picket
lines for more than one hundred days.

23
00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:49.200
The next round of talks is expected
tomorrow. About twenty three thousand people turned

24
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:53.959
out at the Pomona Drag Strip,
not for drag racing necessarily, but to

25
00:01:55.000 --> 00:01:59.799
celebrate In and Out seventy fifth anniversary. The twelve hour festival had a car

26
00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:04.280
show, did have some racing,
live bands, and In and Out Museum

27
00:02:04.359 --> 00:02:07.479
and lots of burghers. The first
In and Out opened in Baldwin Park in

28
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:12.080
nineteen forty eight. At six oh
five. It's handle on the news.

29
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:16.439
Another co defendant in the election interference
case in Georgia has pleaded guilty. Why

30
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:22.159
that could be really bad news for
co defendant and former President Trump. Let's

31
00:02:22.199 --> 00:02:24.080
get started with some of the stories
coming out of the KFI twenty four hour

32
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:30.800
newsroom. Israeli military warplanes have hit
more targets across Gaza as Israeli tanks and

33
00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:35.000
troops have been moved to the Gaza
border. Israel says it's stepped up air

34
00:02:35.039 --> 00:02:38.840
strikes in order to reduce the risk
to troops in the next stages. ABC's

35
00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:44.120
Andrew Dimbert says Israeli forces have also
been fighting off attacks in the West Bank.

36
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:46.639
On Sunday, Israeli fighter jets struck
a mosque in the West Bank.

37
00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:51.560
At least two people were killed.
Israel also struck targets in Syria today and

38
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:54.680
along the border with Lebanon. A
barrage of missiles, artillery and tank fire

39
00:02:54.719 --> 00:03:00.840
between Israel and has bilat. Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin Natagnanhu told troops in northern

40
00:03:00.919 --> 00:03:05.439
Israel yesterday that if Hezbolo launches a
war, it will make the mistake of

41
00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:09.240
its life. Doctors in the Gaza
Strip say dwindling fuel supplies are putting dozens

42
00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:15.639
of premature babies in incubators at risk
of imminent death. The UN Health Agency

43
00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:20.080
estimates there are about one hundred and
thirty premature babies at grave risk. Some

44
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:23.280
hospitals say they're hours away from running
out of generator fuel. The UN agency

45
00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:29.479
responsible for Palestinians says it only had
three days of fuel stocks left to meet

46
00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:34.560
critical need. A memorial service has
been held for the four Pepperdine University students

47
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:38.240
killed in that nasty car crash on
the Pacific Coast Highway. The universities also

48
00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:43.439
offering support for students and staff through
its counseling center. The young women killed

49
00:03:43.520 --> 00:03:49.080
last week were all seniors at Pepperdine's
sever College of Liberal Arts. Sheriff's officials

50
00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:53.719
say the driver was apparently speeding,
lost control and slammed into three parked cars,

51
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:57.280
which hit the women. A man's
been killed in a crash involving two

52
00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:00.080
motorcycles in Palmdale. The crash happened
around six thirty line last night on Bouquet

53
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:04.599
Canyon Road. One of the writers
died at the hospital. The condition of

54
00:04:04.639 --> 00:04:10.360
the second biker is not clear.
Nine Republicans are now running for Speaker of

55
00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:14.919
the House since Congressman Jim Jordan failed
in several votes to get enough support among

56
00:04:14.960 --> 00:04:19.639
the contenders Byron Donalds of Florida,
retired Marine Corps Lieutenant General Jack Bergman of

57
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:25.319
Michigan, a majority web Tom Emmer
of Minnesota, who's backed by Alsted.

58
00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:30.560
Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Abc'sm WIN says
House Republicans will hear from each candidate in

59
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:33.800
a closed door forum tonight. The
internal secret ballot vote will be held tomorrow

60
00:04:33.879 --> 00:04:39.759
morning. The floor vote for speaker
could happen after the secret ballot. High

61
00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:44.879
school, varsity and JV football teams
on Maui have played their first home games

62
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:48.240
since the deadliest US wildfire in more
than a century destroyed the Heina. It

63
00:04:48.279 --> 00:04:51.600
was homecoming, many of the fans, coaches, and players tell the Associated

64
00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:55.720
Press. It was the closest thing
to feeling at home since the fire.

65
00:04:55.839 --> 00:05:00.319
On August eighth, classes have also
resumed at Lehina Luna High and two other

66
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:03.879
public schools that survived the fire.
Both teams won their games. Heather Broker

67
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:08.639
KFI News. Okay, Nick,
don't go away, because I know that

68
00:05:08.680 --> 00:05:14.959
you went out this weekend too,
that anniversary festival for In and out Burger

69
00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:17.279
that I mentioned just a couple of
minutes ago. Can you tell us a

70
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:20.839
little bit about about twenty five thousand
people out there. It was amazing and

71
00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:26.800
it was really unique and special because
not only was it recently the drag strip,

72
00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:30.839
the Pomona Drag Strip was rededicated in
the In and Out Burger name,

73
00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:33.759
but also you were catching a lot
of people that had registered for that event

74
00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:39.439
that weren't just complete competing on the
nhr A national circuit, but also we're

75
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:42.079
competing locally. So it was really
kind of fun to see a lot of

76
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:46.560
different, you know, almost family
organizations that were coming in and being able

77
00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:48.160
to compete there. Okay, but
oh wait, wait, wait, I

78
00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:51.040
want to find out about the burgers. Though, Oh the burgers. The

79
00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:54.519
burgers are fine, But I mean, that was not really what it was.

80
00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:58.439
It was more celebration of family and
music and community for the last seventy

81
00:05:58.439 --> 00:06:00.279
five years of In and Out because
yes, you could totally get it there,

82
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:02.920
but then it was like a regular
food food festival. You had many

83
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:06.120
different people outside of In and Out
that were available there, but you could

84
00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:10.199
get your double double animal style with
you know, whatever you want to hold

85
00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:14.600
girl onion, whatever you wanted was
definitely there available for you. And then

86
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:17.279
they had a special charity concert later
on in the day that was headlined by

87
00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:23.160
Zezy top Oh, and you also
had forty eight Special, which is Lindsay

88
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:27.519
Snyder, who is the co owner
or the rather not co owner, but

89
00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:31.439
the owner and a president of In
and Out Burger. She headlines that band,

90
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:34.360
so she actually opened up the concert
last night. And then yeah,

91
00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:38.040
I was a pretty good three eleven
was there? It was easy top headline.

92
00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:40.319
It was a lot of fun.
So it was a busy, busy,

93
00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:44.120
busy weekend. A little bit warm
at the Pomona drag Race, but

94
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:46.879
not too bad. And I've never
been Have you ever been to a drag

95
00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:48.680
race? Yes? I have?
I have? Okay, yeah, because

96
00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:51.759
I was gonna say this is my
first time in NHRA is no joke and

97
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:58.439
watching even speaking of Lindsay Snyder,
she took on La Sheriff Department and actually

98
00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:01.879
she went out there and is in
race Chabell. She race in her Chabelle.

99
00:07:01.959 --> 00:07:06.439
And I've got some video for us
on KFI AM six forty on Instagram

100
00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:10.839
as well as Nick Poliochini and this
weekend with Nick. See you knew Nick

101
00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:13.279
would be there, right, Okay, Thanks Nick, We'll check it with

102
00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:15.279
you in just a couple of minutes. Right now, let's say good morning

103
00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:19.879
to ABC's Tom Rivers in London.
Good morning Tom. With all the attention

104
00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:24.319
focused on Israel, it's like we're
not even hearing about what's going on in

105
00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:28.399
Ukraine. But there is a lot
exactly, there's a heck of a lot

106
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:32.439
going on there. But you're right, Networks wire services, we've all been

107
00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:36.560
focused for the last two weeks on
Israel and Gaza. That will continue,

108
00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:41.560
but the fighting continues in eastern Ukraine. Let's bring us up to speed.

109
00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:46.040
Over the weekend, late Saturday,
Karkiev up in the north, it was

110
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:49.079
a hit by a thought to be
an S three hundred missile, a ground

111
00:07:49.079 --> 00:07:55.360
to air missile that has been reconfigured
by the Russians, hit a postal sorting

112
00:07:55.399 --> 00:07:59.800
building. We don't know why it
was hit, but at least at least

113
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:05.399
civilians known to have died there.
Other parts of the country, Russians have

114
00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:09.639
been using a variety of different missiles
and drones. Now we don't know if

115
00:08:09.639 --> 00:08:15.759
that reflects logistics stocks of certain models
are dwindling, etc. Or if they're

116
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:20.399
testing defenses to see what works what
doesn't work. But we're seeing up spike

117
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:24.600
in that and a new town to
get used to av Divka is the name

118
00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:30.480
of the place, and Russian forces
surrounding that but taking very very strong casualties

119
00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:35.399
by Ukrainian sources trying to get that, and again it harkens back to World

120
00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:39.080
War One. Literally there are mine
fields, you can't get through them,

121
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:43.639
There are cluster munitions there from the
US side can't get through there. So

122
00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:48.759
yes, very very nasty, nasty
fighting there. If you look at the

123
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:50.919
calendar, all this fighting is going
on right now because in about a month

124
00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:56.279
winter will set in and everything will
grind to a halt, just as we

125
00:08:56.360 --> 00:09:01.080
had last winter. Okay, and
you mentioned a divcap that we need to

126
00:09:01.080 --> 00:09:03.840
get used to that. So where
in Ukraine is that one? What part

127
00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:07.080
of kin of south central? And
uh you know again it's it's it's an

128
00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:11.840
area that the Russians would like to
control, like today or tomorrow, get

129
00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:15.879
hold of it before the winter sets
in, because otherwise it's going to be

130
00:09:15.919 --> 00:09:18.159
a thorn in the side come come
the spring. So yes, we're kind

131
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:24.000
of into like it or not.
We're into the long haul there and no,

132
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:28.799
no, uh no, looking at
at at at the horizon and saying

133
00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:30.919
when this thing might end. It
looks like this is going to grind on

134
00:09:31.039 --> 00:09:33.759
for a long, long period of
time. That is just I was just

135
00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:37.240
I was wondering, like, is
anybody really gaining ground? I know you

136
00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:41.639
you said that that one town they're
going after that one. Is Ukraine gaining

137
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:45.240
any ground back? Or is Russia
taking any ground or is it just sort

138
00:09:45.240 --> 00:09:48.960
of the stalemate where they're just fighting
and firing. Yeah, well, you

139
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:52.639
know, how long is a piece
of piece of strength? You know?

140
00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:56.360
That was we had all summer long, the Ukrainian counter offense offensive, which

141
00:09:56.360 --> 00:10:01.120
you didn't do anything. And at
this stage the Russian forces and certain locations

142
00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:05.399
along this long, long, if
you will, confrontation line are trying to

143
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:09.320
do what they can to grab what
they can strategically before the winter. So

144
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:13.639
it is it is nasty in some
places, other places it's it's fairly quiet,

145
00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:20.080
but that's the nature of this part
of the world and the confrontation.

146
00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:22.960
As you say, we haven't really
looked at very closely for at least two

147
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:28.080
weeks. Yeah, it's just so
amazing that everybody's attention just focused in and

148
00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:33.159
like you don't even think about Ukraine
on a daily basis. Anymore, which

149
00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:35.559
I'm sure that they're worried about as
far as funding and that kind of thing.

150
00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:39.240
From the US. Well, yeah, but I mean the Europeans are

151
00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:43.440
worried about funding too. You know, you can go thirty three trillion in

152
00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:46.720
debt, but the European countries are
not going to follow suit. Yeah,

153
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:50.679
and we've had in the past.
Poland says, no, we're not going

154
00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:52.720
to supply any more weapons. There's
a change of government there. We had

155
00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:58.080
a recent election that may change a
little bit. Hungary says no more weapons.

156
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:01.320
Slovakia, no more weapons. France
says, look, we've shipped everything

157
00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:05.840
we can. But I'll tell you
what, We'll keep supplying ammunition for some

158
00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:11.799
of our weapons systems. The UK
kind of the strongest country after the US.

159
00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:15.240
They basically said, we've shipped out
everything we could afford to ship out.

160
00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:20.080
That's it. So yeah, it's
going to be a different dynamic going

161
00:11:20.120 --> 00:11:22.559
forward. As I say, we
get through this month, we get the

162
00:11:22.639 --> 00:11:26.559
lull of the winter. What's going
to happen in the spring. Anybody's guests,

163
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:30.559
All right, Tom Rivers, thank
you again if you want to follow

164
00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:33.840
Tom, because he's got all the
goods on all of this is at Tom

165
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.559
Rivers ABC. Thanks again, Tom. Take care. Let's get back to

166
00:11:37.559 --> 00:11:39.840
some of the stories coming out of
the KFI twenty four hour news room.

167
00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:43.960
Thousands of workers at Providence Saint Joseph
Medical Center in Burbank or walking off the

168
00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:48.720
job for five days starting today over
what their union calls unfair labor practices.

169
00:11:48.759 --> 00:11:52.759
They've accused the hospital of bad faith
bargaining and other illegal tactics meant to silence

170
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:58.440
workers. The hospital says it has
engaged in meaningful dialogue at the bargaining table

171
00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:03.399
and offered significant wage increases. The
statement says the union has offered unrealistic counter

172
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:09.399
proposals and has chosen to strike instead
of continuing with good faith negotiations. The

173
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:13.559
Capistrano School District has become the first
in Orange County to reject a proposed parental

174
00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:18.159
notification policy. Several variations of the
policy in other districts have claimed to just

175
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:22.200
be about keeping parents in the loop. The Capistrano School District's policy focused on

176
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:26.759
mental health, but trustees admitted the
policy included a student's gender identity. This

177
00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:31.320
student told the district last week,
it's just an outing policy. Identity is

178
00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:35.360
personal and no one has a right
to intimate details of one's identity without their

179
00:12:35.399 --> 00:12:39.320
permission. Tender identity and sexual orientation
is not a mental health illness, but

180
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:41.720
others asked why parents are being kept
out of such an important issue in their

181
00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:46.279
child's life. In Orange County Corbin
Carson k if I News, Taylor Swift

182
00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:52.080
has made history with a movie.
Taylor Swift is number one in the box

183
00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:54.039
office for the second week in a
row. That means Swift now has the

184
00:12:54.080 --> 00:12:58.759
first concert film to stay at number
one for two consecutive weeks. The film

185
00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:01.759
took in around thirty one million dollars, bringing the total to about one hundred

186
00:13:01.759 --> 00:13:05.679
and thirty million. Domestically. The
new Martin Scorsese flick Killers of the Flower

187
00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:09.480
Moon starring Leonardo DiCaprio finished second with
just under twenty four million. The Exorcist

188
00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:13.360
Believer came in third, followed by
Pap Patrol, The Mighty Movie, and

189
00:13:13.399 --> 00:13:16.480
fourth. Rounding out the top five
was a thirtieth anniversary rerelease of the nineteen

190
00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:22.399
ninety three Tim Burden film The Nightmare
Before Christmas. Andrew Caravella KFI News,

191
00:13:22.320 --> 00:13:26.759
speaking of Taylor Swift, NFL has
to be loving Taylor Swift right now.

192
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:33.399
She was at Arrowhead Stadium yesterday to
cheer on Kansas City against the Chargers.

193
00:13:33.639 --> 00:13:39.200
Of course, she was there to
cheer on her rumored boyfriend Travis Kelce.

194
00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:45.080
She even wore a bracelet featuring Kelsey's
team number eighty seven for her game day

195
00:13:45.080 --> 00:13:48.600
attire. And while I was on
the phone to my friend Debbie, she

196
00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:50.360
was watching the game and I was
getting ready to head out, and she

197
00:13:50.399 --> 00:13:52.799
was like, oh my god,
they went to Taylor again. And they

198
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:56.720
just kept going back to Taylor Swift
because she's all the rage. And apparently

199
00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:01.639
it's working because the game was the
most watched matchup of the week. It

200
00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:07.360
had twenty four point three million viewers
and ranked first among women twelve to forty

201
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:11.759
nine. When we come back,
we're going to hear from KFI reporter Chris

202
00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:16.159
Adler about a ghost who's working to
keep creeps away from kids. Has nothing

203
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:18.759
to do with Halloween, but boy, are we happy he's out there.

204
00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:22.639
And if you think you're stressed out
wait till you hear where you're most likely

205
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:26.720
to be the most stressed. We're
going to check in with ABC's Jim Ryan

206
00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:31.840
on that you're listening to Wake Up
Call on demand from KFI AM six forty.

207
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:35.960
In a sudden shift to more traditional
fall weather, Thank goodness, wind

208
00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:39.559
and light rain are expected in the
mountains and foothills through this morning. Forecasters

209
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:41.639
say the storm system should clear out
by this afternoon. Temps are going to

210
00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:46.440
be about twenty degrees cooler than just
a few days ago. I'm ready for

211
00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:50.039
it. It's back to square one
for the House. Nine Republicans have put

212
00:14:50.039 --> 00:14:52.399
their names into run for Speaker of
the House. Now that Jim Jordan is

213
00:14:52.440 --> 00:14:56.399
out. Republicans will meet tonight and
have an internal vote on a new choice

214
00:14:56.440 --> 00:15:00.799
er speaker tomorrow. A new study
suggests the more lly fat you have,

215
00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:05.320
the less brain volume you have.
Researchers at Providence Saint John's Health Center in

216
00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:11.840
Santa Monica say overactive and inflamed fat
cells send signals to the brain to downsize,

217
00:15:13.279 --> 00:15:16.840
which results in a higher risk for
dimension later in life. Oh great,

218
00:15:16.480 --> 00:15:18.399
At six oh five, it's handled. On the news, the US

219
00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:24.200
is sending more big guns to the
Middle East's tensions and attacks increase. Right

220
00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:28.799
now, let's say good morning to
ABC's Jim Ryan. Jim, we're all

221
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:33.720
stressed out, yeah, but we're
not as stressed as another state. No.

222
00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:37.879
In fact, you guys are probably
better than well, not better than

223
00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:39.159
most, but better than a lot
of them. You look down into the

224
00:15:39.200 --> 00:15:45.519
Deep South, into Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, those states are

225
00:15:45.559 --> 00:15:50.720
the most stressed places in the whole
country. Occurring crazy Yeah, wallet help

226
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:54.080
has found this. I love New
Orleans and Louisiana. I'd love to live

227
00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:56.159
over there, but it comes in
at number two in terms of the most

228
00:15:56.159 --> 00:16:03.159
stressed. Number one Mississippi. The
wallet hub survey looked to all sorts of

229
00:16:03.639 --> 00:16:08.720
different criteria mony related stress, family
stress, the availability of recreation in a

230
00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:11.600
community. I mean, it went
into lots and lots of different metrics to

231
00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:15.799
come up with this and found that
indeed, Mississippi comes out on top in

232
00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:19.799
terms of stress. That's so weird
because you think of the states in the

233
00:16:19.840 --> 00:16:25.279
South as more chill and relax and
laid back, and like they'd be just

234
00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:27.960
less stressed and more happy. Maybe
not, or maybe that's just how they

235
00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:32.080
react to the stress that's filed on
them. But if you look at California,

236
00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:37.480
you're at number twenty two, So
that's to most stressed twenty You know,

237
00:16:37.559 --> 00:16:41.000
what would that be forty six least
stress something like that, thirty eighth.

238
00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:42.840
My math is not good. But
yeah, you guys are doing better.

239
00:16:44.039 --> 00:16:45.840
A lot of petits early, Jim, you get a pass on mass

240
00:16:47.080 --> 00:16:49.799
Yeah. Besides that, we're at
number nine in terms of stress in Texas.

241
00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:52.799
So yeah, a little edgey today, but no, no, wait,

242
00:16:52.879 --> 00:16:56.960
Texas is more stressed than California.
It is. Yeah, by kind

243
00:16:57.000 --> 00:17:00.399
of a long shot. Here.
Texas at number nine, comes in with

244
00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:06.759
a total score. They scored these
things, they weighted them, they turned

245
00:17:06.759 --> 00:17:08.680
them into digits, and they came
up with scores. So Mississippi has a

246
00:17:08.720 --> 00:17:14.079
fifty eight point eight score for stress, which puts a top of the list

247
00:17:14.359 --> 00:17:18.680
Texas at fifty three point three four. You come into California and you're down

248
00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:22.319
at forty five point twenty six.
We got sunshine. We're ay, We're

249
00:17:22.359 --> 00:17:25.359
a happy bunch. You guys have
sunshine too. Okay, So who's the

250
00:17:25.480 --> 00:17:29.839
least stressed state? Head up to
the opposite end of the country. Minnesota

251
00:17:29.960 --> 00:17:33.160
comes in at least stressed. They
have the highest, you know, among

252
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:40.359
the highest employment rates, healthcare availability
is there more people graduate from high school

253
00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:42.480
and then go on to college in
Minnesota than they do down to the Deep

254
00:17:42.519 --> 00:17:47.759
South. Utah came in right up
close to that as well in Utah and

255
00:17:47.799 --> 00:17:51.319
then New Hampshire. So yeah,
it's kind of interesting. So you look

256
00:17:51.319 --> 00:17:53.640
at the Deep South or the Upper
Midwest, that Minnesota part of the country

257
00:17:53.680 --> 00:17:57.640
and then over to Utah, and
you'll find some of the most stress free

258
00:17:57.720 --> 00:18:03.519
living anywhere. I mean, Okay, Utah, I'm sure, and Minnesota

259
00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:07.640
and Minnesota. No too freaking cold
in Minnesota. Okay. Jim, thank

260
00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:10.079
you. You know Jim always digs
up such fun stories. You can follow

261
00:18:10.119 --> 00:18:15.640
him at Jim Ryan TX. Thanks
Jim. See you. News brought to

262
00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:18.599
you by American Vision Windows. We're
going to check it out with our very

263
00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:22.480
own Chris Adler. She's telling us
about a ghost, but not the kind

264
00:18:22.519 --> 00:18:26.519
you see at Halloween. This is
a private group in southern California that traps

265
00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:30.559
child sexual predators, does it online, says it has caught hundreds of people

266
00:18:30.720 --> 00:18:36.400
planning to have sex with kids.
The creep catching unit started in San Diego,

267
00:18:36.519 --> 00:18:38.920
but when the group's founder, who
refers to himself as Ghost, realized

268
00:18:38.960 --> 00:18:44.640
how prevalent online predators were in his
own county, he expanded the sting operation

269
00:18:44.839 --> 00:18:48.759
outward. I started going to Orange
County in La and Riverside and San Bernardino

270
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:52.720
and other counties, even to other
states as well, such as Arizona,

271
00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:57.559
Washington. Literally anywhere you go.
This problem is, you know, existing

272
00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:03.400
ghost sets up decoy counts on social
media platforms, posing as underage girls and

273
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:07.480
boys, exchanging sexual messages and planning
meetups. Once the predators take de bait,

274
00:19:07.559 --> 00:19:11.359
he and his team show up with
cameras and broadcast the catches online.

275
00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:14.880
We're going to get you reported.
Go ahead, you owe me too?

276
00:19:15.480 --> 00:19:18.200
How about what about what you're doing? I have all your pictures and chats,

277
00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:22.000
ghost says. Cc unit has caught
nearly four hundred online predators since the

278
00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:26.839
group started in twenty eighteen, and
has baited creeps ranging from marines to Hollywood

279
00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:30.920
actors and ministers to school cafeteria workers. How do you think the parents at

280
00:19:30.920 --> 00:19:36.680
the school would feel if they found
out about Ramsey, the chef of the

281
00:19:36.720 --> 00:19:40.240
elementary school talking to fourteen year old
boys like this? How do you think

282
00:19:40.240 --> 00:19:45.079
they would feel disgusted? Right?
Cc unit baited a staff member at Pepperdine

283
00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:49.000
University in August who was arrested for
soliciting a minor. That worker was terminated

284
00:19:49.079 --> 00:19:55.000
and committed suicide in September. Newport
Beach attorney Rick no Horres as any type

285
00:19:55.000 --> 00:19:59.200
of legal action taken against CC unit
would likely not be successful, and the

286
00:19:59.240 --> 00:20:03.759
question is will does that is that
actionable? Or if that guy left kids

287
00:20:03.799 --> 00:20:08.240
behind, right, can the children
sue the vigilante unit the CC unit equivalent?

288
00:20:08.279 --> 00:20:11.599
And the question the answer is,
of course they can sue them,

289
00:20:11.799 --> 00:20:15.079
but I don't see a California jury
being all that sympathetic to a child.

290
00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:19.039
Veteran Ghost says the group does not
advocate violence and doesn't want anyone harming themselves,

291
00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:22.640
But he says if they do the
crime and don't want to pay the

292
00:20:22.680 --> 00:20:26.559
time, the burden isn't CC units
to bear. I mean, it's not

293
00:20:26.680 --> 00:20:29.559
our fault that he did that.
He shouldn't have been going after a thirteen

294
00:20:29.640 --> 00:20:33.240
year old. Not every creep baited
as a creep arrested, as many police

295
00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:37.079
departments say they have to do it
by the numbers and hold their own investigations.

296
00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:41.920
CC Unit says on camera, police
will discourage the catches, but behind

297
00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:45.559
the scenes, cops appreciate their works
and they say thank you for what you

298
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:48.839
do. We respect what you do
because we have kids of our own.

299
00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:52.440
We have a family of our own. Ghosts says. People know CC unit

300
00:20:52.519 --> 00:20:56.079
is out there, but just like
other criminals, pedophiles and child molesters,

301
00:20:56.119 --> 00:20:59.880
won't stop just because the law lies
in waiting. And for those thinking of

302
00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:04.039
bout abusing children, he wants them
to know we're watching. We're watching.

303
00:21:04.200 --> 00:21:08.039
Yay, don't try to touch kids
in California because we're gonna get you.

304
00:21:10.119 --> 00:21:11.839
This is not a safe place for
you to, you know, pray on

305
00:21:11.960 --> 00:21:15.960
kids because we're out there and we're
gonna get you. For wake up call,

306
00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:21.279
I'm Chris Adler. Thanks Chris.
That's a good ghost. Hey.

307
00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:26.559
October is Breast cancer Awareness month.
iHeartRadio Los Angeles is teaming up with ABY

308
00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:30.079
seven and would love to get closer
to a world without breast cancer. Amazing

309
00:21:30.119 --> 00:21:34.039
how many people it affects, for
our mothers, for our sisters, daughters,

310
00:21:34.079 --> 00:21:37.240
friends, neighbors. I'm sure you

316
00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:02.839
When we come back, we're going
to be talking with ABC's Stephen Portnoy

317
00:22:02.880 --> 00:22:06.160
as the Republicans go back to square
one and they're search for a new speaker

318
00:22:06.200 --> 00:22:11.039
of the House. You're listening to
Wake Up Call on demand from KFI Am

319
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:15.279
six forty. I love that it's
Kroc Day. My mom loves Crocs.

320
00:22:15.680 --> 00:22:19.319
I don't get them, but did
you see they're coming out with new crowd

321
00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:23.960
cowboy boots. They're really funny looking
anyway, and as also slap your annoying

322
00:22:25.039 --> 00:22:30.240
coworker, day Tony, stay in
your room. Here's what we're following in

323
00:22:30.240 --> 00:22:34.319
the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
Israel's military says it is intensifying attacks as

324
00:22:34.319 --> 00:22:41.200
it gets ready for an expected ground
invasion. It has warned Palestinians civilians again

325
00:22:41.279 --> 00:22:45.279
to leave northern Gaza, saying they're
risking their lives if they don't get out.

326
00:22:45.839 --> 00:22:48.160
We're gonna be talking with ABC stor
Dana Miller in Israel at five point

327
00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:53.000
fifty with the latest from Israel.
Sag AFTRA and the Hollywood Studios are going

328
00:22:53.039 --> 00:22:56.880
to be sitting down for talks tomorrow. Producers asked for the talks to rezoom

329
00:22:56.920 --> 00:23:00.400
about two weeks after they broke down. Actors have been on the picket lines

330
00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:04.319
for more than one hundred days.
Taylor Swift's On a Roll Her Era's Tour

331
00:23:04.400 --> 00:23:08.240
concert movie earned another thirty one million
dollars at the box office to hold onto

332
00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:12.400
the number one spot for a second
week. It's the first concert movie to

333
00:23:12.480 --> 00:23:17.920
be number one two weeks in a
row. Martin Scorsese Killers of the Flower

334
00:23:17.960 --> 00:23:22.759
Moon debuted in second with twenty four
million dollars in ticket sales three and a

335
00:23:22.799 --> 00:23:26.519
half hours. That's commitment. Are
Killers of the Flower Moon? At six

336
00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:30.240
oh five, it's handle on the
news. Some eight is getting into Gaza

337
00:23:30.240 --> 00:23:34.599
as Israel steps up attacks on Hamas. Okay, So Jim Jordan came to

338
00:23:34.720 --> 00:23:38.839
a grim reality on Friday. It
was something that we learned from Hamilton.

339
00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:45.519
You don't have the boats, you
don't have the vote. Let's say good

340
00:23:45.519 --> 00:23:51.599
morning now to ABC's national correspondent Steven
Portnoy. Good morning, Steve. So

341
00:23:51.759 --> 00:23:56.279
Jim Jordan is out, Yeah,
he's out. He's out by a vote

342
00:23:56.279 --> 00:23:59.720
of his colleagues a secret ballot on
Friday to strip Jim Jordan of the nomination

343
00:23:59.759 --> 00:24:03.640
of the three failed attempts on the
House floor, three successive attempts that saw

344
00:24:03.720 --> 00:24:07.519
Jim Jordan's support in the House eroding
with each round. So the process starts

345
00:24:07.519 --> 00:24:12.039
a new square one and it's a
wide open field. Nine candidates are running

346
00:24:12.119 --> 00:24:15.119
for the speaker. Now. It's
like the presidential race in a way.

347
00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:18.559
Yes, and none of these people
are bold faced names. No, you've

348
00:24:18.559 --> 00:24:22.400
probably never heard of any of them. The front runners a man named Tom

349
00:24:22.480 --> 00:24:26.960
Emmer, who does not have a
national profile to speak of, but he

350
00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:30.480
was, in the last cycle the
head of the Republican campaign committee to elect

351
00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:36.480
Republicans to the House, so he's
established a fundraising prowess. He's the House

352
00:24:36.559 --> 00:24:40.000
majority whip, which puts him in
the leadership, so he's well known to

353
00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:44.720
his colleagues, to us exactly,
that's right, and so he is presumed

354
00:24:44.759 --> 00:24:48.119
to be the frontrunner in this effort. There are other candidates Byron Donald's of

355
00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:53.319
Florida, Pete Sessions of Texas,
one of the longest serving Republicans in the

356
00:24:53.319 --> 00:24:59.519
House, Mike Johnson of Louisiana who's
been on television a bit, Kevin Hearn,

357
00:24:59.599 --> 00:25:03.079
who is is the head of the
Republican Study Committee. But on the

358
00:25:03.079 --> 00:25:06.960
whole look, these, as I
say, are not bold face names.

359
00:25:06.960 --> 00:25:11.599
The candidates will speak to their colleagues
tonight in a closed door candidates forum,

360
00:25:11.920 --> 00:25:18.799
and then tomorrow successive rounds of secret
ballots. The rules say that a nominee

361
00:25:18.799 --> 00:25:22.200
has to achieve a majority, So
the presumption is with nine candidates, whoever's

362
00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:25.680
the number one vote getter will will
be in the lead with a plurality,

363
00:25:26.039 --> 00:25:30.400
so the bottom vote getter will drop
out of the running. As the rounds

364
00:25:30.440 --> 00:25:34.519
continue until a single candidate achieves a
majority and that person becomes the nominee,

365
00:25:34.599 --> 00:25:38.279
and then we'll move to the House
floor. Is that dictated by anything like

366
00:25:38.279 --> 00:25:41.039
in the Constitution or did they Is
that just how they do it? That's

367
00:25:41.079 --> 00:25:45.160
the Those are the written rules of
the House Republican Conference, So those are

368
00:25:45.160 --> 00:25:49.519
their own internal rules. Oh okay, so is there? It just seems

369
00:25:49.559 --> 00:25:52.960
like they're throwing spitballs up against the
wall to see if anything's going to stick.

370
00:25:53.000 --> 00:25:57.839
At this point, how did those
nine come forward? Like when Jordan

371
00:25:57.920 --> 00:26:02.440
said I'm out, then they just
raise their hands. Especially became a free

372
00:26:02.440 --> 00:26:06.839
for all. And look, they'll
give it a try. If the three

373
00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:11.480
best known Republicans in the House,
Kevin McCarthy, Steves Scalise and Jim Jordan,

374
00:26:11.799 --> 00:26:15.359
can't achieve the near unanimity that's required
for a Republican to win the gabble,

375
00:26:15.559 --> 00:26:18.960
let's see if someone lesser known can
do it. What's a liability for

376
00:26:18.039 --> 00:26:22.720
Tom Emmer. Well, he voted
to certify the results of the twenty twenty

377
00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:29.440
election, Okay, and that gives
pause to a number of the MAGA Republicans.

378
00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:33.039
And it's already believed that if he
were to become the nominee, though

379
00:26:33.079 --> 00:26:36.400
some of those MAGA Republicans might not
want to be on board for Tom Emmer.

380
00:26:36.480 --> 00:26:40.960
Let's see what happens. Okay.
So they're meeting tonight and they're gonna

381
00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:44.680
then they'll start their voting process.
You said tomorrow. That's right, all

382
00:26:44.799 --> 00:26:48.839
right, We'll be watching Stephen Portnoy. Thank you so much. You bet.

383
00:26:48.920 --> 00:26:51.799
All right, Let's get back to
some of the stories coming out of

384
00:26:51.799 --> 00:26:56.920
the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
Governor Newsom is starting his week visit to

385
00:26:56.160 --> 00:27:00.599
China. He's expected to be focusing
on climate change and what the US in

386
00:27:00.720 --> 00:27:06.039
China can do to help slow the
effects of it. Newsom made a stop

387
00:27:06.039 --> 00:27:07.960
in Israel on his way to China. It was a last second addition to

388
00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:12.119
his travel plans. He met with
survivors, impacted families, and others affected

389
00:27:12.119 --> 00:27:18.039
by the ongoing war with Hamas.
Israeli warplanes have hit more targets in Gaza,

390
00:27:18.200 --> 00:27:22.160
days after allowing convoys of food,
water, and medicine into the territory.

391
00:27:22.400 --> 00:27:26.160
The military says it has hit three
hundred and twenty targets in the last

392
00:27:26.279 --> 00:27:30.400
twenty four hours. It says they
were all militant targets. The Israeli military

393
00:27:30.519 --> 00:27:36.160
says Palestinian militants have fired over seven
thousand rockets at Israel since the start of

394
00:27:36.160 --> 00:27:38.440
the war just over two weeks ago. Israel says it has stepped up air

395
00:27:38.480 --> 00:27:42.759
strikes to reduce the risk to troops
in the next stages of the war,

396
00:27:42.839 --> 00:27:48.119
which are believed to include a ground
operation. News brought to you by American

397
00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:52.960
Vision Windows. The US has renewed
its warning that it would defend the Philippines

398
00:27:52.000 --> 00:27:56.680
in case of an armed attack.
The warning comes in response to Chinese ships

399
00:27:56.759 --> 00:28:03.599
blocking and colliding with two Filipino ships
in the South China Sea. China blames

400
00:28:03.599 --> 00:28:07.359
the Philippines for the collisions, saying
the ships were carrying construction materials to strengthen

401
00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:12.519
the Philippine outpost at the Second Thomas
Shoal, which is claimed by China.

402
00:28:14.359 --> 00:28:18.640
A funeral service has been held in
Michigan for the president of a local synagogue

403
00:28:18.880 --> 00:28:22.759
murdered outside her home in Detroit.
Aaron Katirsky says Samantha Wol was found early

404
00:28:22.839 --> 00:28:29.039
Saturday. Police followed a trail of
blood that led to her body being discovered,

405
00:28:29.079 --> 00:28:33.079
and she was stabbed multiple times for
no known reason. As of yet,

406
00:28:33.119 --> 00:28:37.400
police say there was no sign of
forced entry. Investigators say so far,

407
00:28:37.519 --> 00:28:41.920
there's no evidence suggesting Wol was targeted
because of her faith or events in

408
00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:48.440
the Middle East. A Vietnam a
Vietnam War memorial is said to be unveiled

409
00:28:48.440 --> 00:28:55.000
in Murrietta at the city's Veterans Memorial
in town Square Park. The Vietnam War

410
00:28:55.079 --> 00:28:59.400
Memorial wall is in addition to the
walls already in place for World War II

411
00:28:59.599 --> 00:29:03.640
ANDREE and War veterans. The unveiling
will happen at noon on November eleventh,

412
00:29:03.759 --> 00:29:19.160
Veterans Day. After the city's annual
Veterans Day parade, thousands of people have

413
00:29:19.200 --> 00:29:25.000
celebrated In and Out Burger seventy fifth
anniversary at twelve hour long festival in Pomona.

414
00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:27.920
Festival at the Fair Plugs yesterday included
a car show, racing, live

415
00:29:29.000 --> 00:29:32.920
bands, and an In and Out
museum. In and Out got the naming

416
00:29:33.000 --> 00:29:37.359
rights to the Pomona Drag Strip last
year. So, okay, what are

417
00:29:37.400 --> 00:29:44.839
you doing here, mister rare northern
right whale dolphin? So there was you

418
00:29:44.880 --> 00:29:48.920
know, the whale watching tours out
and about the off the coast of southern

419
00:29:48.920 --> 00:29:55.599
California. Well, last Thursday,
group was out and about five miles off

420
00:29:55.640 --> 00:30:00.920
the coast of Dana Point spotted a
rare northern right well dolphin. The dolphin

421
00:30:02.279 --> 00:30:06.799
it looks kind of like a dolphin, but it has sort of coloring of

422
00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:12.480
a killer whale. It doesn't have
a dorsal fin. It's typically seen up

423
00:30:12.519 --> 00:30:15.319
in the northwest. They don't come
down this far south, so it was

424
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:19.200
really unusual to see him there.
And they normally swim in groups of like

425
00:30:19.240 --> 00:30:23.880
one hundred to two hundred, but
apparently this spotting that was a lone dolphin

426
00:30:23.960 --> 00:30:27.759
but it was swimming with some common
dolphins. So wonder what he was doing

427
00:30:27.799 --> 00:30:32.799
so far away from home. Where's
his group, where's his clan? But

428
00:30:32.920 --> 00:30:34.039
fun for the people who got to
see him, because you don't get to

429
00:30:34.039 --> 00:30:37.799
see him every day. Down here, you're listening to Wake Up Call on

430
00:30:37.880 --> 00:30:45.119
demand from KFI AM six forty.
California's Governor Newsom is starting his week long

431
00:30:45.279 --> 00:30:49.240
visit to China today. He's reportedly
focusing on climate change and what the US

432
00:30:49.279 --> 00:30:52.799
and China can do to help slow
the effects of it. It comes after

433
00:30:52.839 --> 00:30:56.960
a stop in Israel to meet with
survivors, impacted families, and others affected

434
00:30:57.000 --> 00:31:02.920
by the ongoing war with It's back
to square one for the House. Nine

435
00:31:02.960 --> 00:31:06.799
Republicans have put their names in to
run for Speaker of the House now that

436
00:31:06.920 --> 00:31:11.799
Jim Jordan is out. Republicans will
meet tonight and have an internal vote on

437
00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:17.559
a new choice for speaker tomorrow.
A new study suggests that the more belly

438
00:31:17.640 --> 00:31:22.559
fat you have, the less brain
volume you have. Researchers at Providence Saint

439
00:31:22.640 --> 00:31:27.359
John's Hell Center in Santa Monica say
overactive and inflamed fat cells start sending signals

440
00:31:27.400 --> 00:31:32.680
to the brain to downsize shrinks your
brain and that results in a higher risk

441
00:31:33.200 --> 00:31:37.880
for dementia later in life. We're
just minutes away from handle. On the

442
00:31:37.920 --> 00:31:44.920
news this morning, sag after a
President, fran Drescher says actors are set

443
00:31:44.960 --> 00:31:49.640
to strike for up to six months
if they have to. Let's get back

444
00:31:49.680 --> 00:31:52.440
to some of the stories coming out
of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.

445
00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:57.759
Israel's war against Tomas is intensifying.
The Israeli military says it has hit three

446
00:31:57.839 --> 00:32:04.839
hundred and twenty military targets in Gaza
over the last twenty four hours. The

447
00:32:04.880 --> 00:32:07.839
IDF stepping up its air strikes into
Gaza over the weekend, and now more

448
00:32:07.880 --> 00:32:13.240
than three hundred thousand Israeli troops called
up from the reserves, some moved closer

449
00:32:13.279 --> 00:32:19.759
to the border, ready to invade
the Gaza Strip. ABC's Andrew Dimbert says

450
00:32:19.799 --> 00:32:23.359
the Biden administration has urged Israel to
delay the ground invasion to allow for the

451
00:32:23.400 --> 00:32:29.759
release of hostages and to provide a
safe way out for US citizens and others

452
00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:35.440
in Gaza. The head of Mission
for Doctors Without Borders and Gaza says the

453
00:32:35.480 --> 00:32:39.799
aid allowed in so far is not
enough. Twenty trucks actually is almost nothing.

454
00:32:39.880 --> 00:32:44.400
It's a drop in the ocean and
the only positive things to this is

455
00:32:44.440 --> 00:32:49.319
just that the border have opened for
very short time. Leo Kaines says the

456
00:32:49.480 --> 00:32:53.279
organization has two hundred and twenty three
people in Gaza, but not all are

457
00:32:53.279 --> 00:32:59.519
able to work, either because they've
lost family members or have been displaced themselves.

458
00:33:00.920 --> 00:33:04.160
Police and the US Marshals are trying
to find the man believed to have

459
00:33:04.319 --> 00:33:08.319
murdered a judge in Maryland. Deputies
armed with long gun swarming a wooded area

460
00:33:08.400 --> 00:33:14.960
near Williamsport, Maryland, on Saturday
morning, after Pedro Argot's silver Mercedes SUV

461
00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:19.880
was found by a resident just fifteen
minutes from where police say are Goatee gun

462
00:33:19.920 --> 00:33:25.960
down Circuit Court Judge Andrew Wilkinson outside
of his home. ABC's Morgan Norwood says

463
00:33:27.039 --> 00:33:30.200
Judge Wilkinson was killed in his driveway
last week, just hours after he awarded

464
00:33:30.359 --> 00:33:37.160
full legal custody of our Goatee's children
to his ex wife and issued a protective

465
00:33:37.240 --> 00:33:42.519
order based on a history of domestic
violence. High school football has returned to

466
00:33:42.680 --> 00:33:45.920
Lehina for the first time since a
deadly wildfire on Maui. The varsity and

467
00:33:46.000 --> 00:33:51.960
JV teams at Lehina. Luna High
won their homecoming games over the weekend.

468
00:33:52.400 --> 00:33:54.559
Many of the fans, coaches,
and players said that being back at the

469
00:33:54.599 --> 00:34:00.640
stadium Saturday was the closest thing to
feeling at home in my mind. Months,

470
00:34:00.319 --> 00:34:05.200
gas prices in southern California have continued
to drop. They've fallen for twenty

471
00:34:05.240 --> 00:34:08.079
three straight days. In La County, the average for a gallon of regular

472
00:34:08.280 --> 00:34:12.800
is five point fifty eight. In
Orange County it's five point thirty nine.

473
00:34:12.880 --> 00:34:16.480
Inland, the average is five forty
two per gallon. That's still too way

474
00:34:16.559 --> 00:34:21.719
high Way, too high, Too
Way high Way, too high. No

475
00:34:21.840 --> 00:34:25.280
trick candy prices are up about thirteen
percent this Halloween. That's according to the

476
00:34:25.320 --> 00:34:30.880
Bureau of Labor. A supply chain
expert at UCLA says candy is so expansive

477
00:34:31.000 --> 00:34:37.360
because of inflation and the cost of
ingredients, and because candy is mostly made

478
00:34:37.400 --> 00:34:40.920
in the US. He says workers
need to be paid more because the higher

479
00:34:42.079 --> 00:34:46.440
cost of well about everything. So
here's something we have to say goodbye to,

480
00:34:46.599 --> 00:34:49.960
which makes me very sad because I've
been to shows here. But the

481
00:34:50.000 --> 00:34:57.079
five point Amphitheater in Orange County.
It opened in twenty seventeen has closed permanently.

482
00:34:57.719 --> 00:35:02.440
The last show the Zach Brown Band
was Saturday, October twenty first,

483
00:35:02.480 --> 00:35:07.679
and then done so five point I
didn't even know. This was supposed to

484
00:35:07.679 --> 00:35:13.760
be like a temporary bridge between Irvine
Meadows Amphitheater and a permanent venue that was

485
00:35:13.800 --> 00:35:16.679
going to be built at Irvine Great
Park. It's a nice little amphitheater,

486
00:35:19.159 --> 00:35:23.559
like good seats, good size,
but apparently it was a temporary thing,

487
00:35:23.639 --> 00:35:29.000
and that permanent thing that was supposed
to be Live Nation had been in discussions

488
00:35:29.000 --> 00:35:31.360
with the City of Irvine. They
were going to build the permanent, like

489
00:35:31.400 --> 00:35:37.000
fourteen thousand seat venue, but then
the city ended its partnership with the promoter

490
00:35:37.119 --> 00:35:42.119
back in July because residents and council
members had said, you know that the

491
00:35:42.199 --> 00:35:45.679
venue is too big, the noise
impact on surrounding areas is too great,

492
00:35:45.760 --> 00:35:52.760
and so Live Nation dropped out.
So as of right now, no Amphitheater

493
00:35:52.960 --> 00:35:58.239
in Irvine. I'm guessing that you're
getting ready for the holidays. I'm starting

494
00:35:58.280 --> 00:36:01.119
to get ready for the holidays planning. I haven't gotten out Christmas yet,

495
00:36:01.159 --> 00:36:06.800
that doesn't come till after Halloween.
But I was reading an article on when

496
00:36:06.880 --> 00:36:10.880
is the best time to book your
flights because for me, going up to

497
00:36:10.920 --> 00:36:15.840
my hometown is always very expensive because
it's a smaller airport, so there's only

498
00:36:15.880 --> 00:36:20.039
a couple of different options for us. So I always start to get nervous

499
00:36:20.039 --> 00:36:22.559
about this time of year because I'm
like, Okay, it's five hundred dollars

500
00:36:22.599 --> 00:36:24.840
already for a round trip flight.
It'd be cheaper to fly to New York

501
00:36:24.880 --> 00:36:29.400
City across the country, but that's
fine. So I was looking around to

502
00:36:29.440 --> 00:36:31.880
say, when is the best time, because you know how there's best days

503
00:36:31.960 --> 00:36:37.960
to fly. Well, apparently the
head of Expedia, Christy Hudson, at

504
00:36:37.039 --> 00:36:43.760
least their PR department, says that
Sunday is probably the best day to actually

505
00:36:43.960 --> 00:36:49.199
book your flights, and they're looking
at billions of data points of booked flights

506
00:36:49.239 --> 00:36:52.679
and floan flights and watching to see
and Sunday is the day. So you

507
00:36:52.719 --> 00:36:58.000
missed it for this week. But
booking on Sunday can save you around six

508
00:36:58.039 --> 00:37:04.079
percent on domestic flights and thirteen percent
on international flights compared to like if you

509
00:37:04.119 --> 00:37:08.199
booked on a Friday, which is
the most popular day for best domestic flights.

510
00:37:08.199 --> 00:37:14.360
The best deals are available about a
month before departure fares are twenty four

511
00:37:14.440 --> 00:37:17.400
percent cheaper than they are last minute. Again, this is why I get

512
00:37:17.440 --> 00:37:21.079
nervous, because I'm like, Okay, what's the holiday is going to look

513
00:37:21.159 --> 00:37:22.440
like? And when can I you
know, what time am I going to

514
00:37:22.519 --> 00:37:25.599
have off? And that kind of
stuff. If you're going international, you

515
00:37:25.639 --> 00:37:32.079
should book sixty days out. Prices
for international flights peak about four months before

516
00:37:32.079 --> 00:37:37.880
departure and then they drop by about
ten percent around the sixty day mark and

517
00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:43.320
then they go back up. So
if you're looking at going to home for

518
00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:45.199
the holidays, to grandmother's house,
we go, and all that stuff,

519
00:37:45.239 --> 00:37:50.280
book on Sunday. Oh and also
book on Sunday, but leave on Thursday

520
00:37:50.280 --> 00:37:54.639
according to Expedia, and make sure
you lock your plans in at least twenty

521
00:37:54.679 --> 00:38:01.079
eight days out. Good advice.
