Amy Kay, good morning. It's five o'clock this 4 00:00:37.759 --> 00:00:41.840 Friday. This is your wake up call for May third. I'm Amy King. 5 00:00:43.759 --> 00:00:48.520 Added to a really busy weekend. The La County Fair is opening, 6 00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:54.000 going to that. Netflix is a joke is going on all over La. 7 00:00:54.799 --> 00:00:58.000 Actually, we're gonna be going to that too, and then Hey, Derby, 8 00:00:58.359 --> 00:01:03.200 Kentucky Derby is on Saturday. Dodgers are back in town. I got 9 00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:08.000 a lot to do. Hope you mix in a lot of activities with maybe 10 00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:10.640 a little bit of rest. I mean, come on, it is the 11 00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:12.799 weekend. Hey. You know, we didn't get any egltz from our big 12 00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:17.480 bear Eagles, Jackie in Shadow, And if you've been listening to the show, 13 00:01:17.480 --> 00:01:19.760 you know I was devastated and I got ann hooked on it, and 14 00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:25.000 then I felt bad because we didn't get any eggs to hatch. But there 15 00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:29.000 are eglts and you can see them. I got an email from Sherry in 16 00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:34.239 Seattle. She's listening on the iHeartRadio app and she said, there are eagles 17 00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:38.079 on Catalina Island, and there are some other places where you can find eagles. 18 00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:44.040 And then she said and then shortly she's going to start watching bears at 19 00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:47.959 Katmi in Alaska. I'm not sure if I'm saying that right. She said 20 00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:51.920 that their favorite bears come back every year and the moms and the cubs fish 21 00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:55.959 in the fall and they've got video cameras trained on it so you can watch 22 00:01:56.000 --> 00:02:00.640 it, and it's at explore dot org. I went and looked in. 23 00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:06.760 There's some egletz there on Catalina Island, all bundled and they're getting their feathers 24 00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:09.120 and they're getting pretty big. So we don't get to see Jackie in shadow, 25 00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:12.520 but if you want to go see it again, it's at explore dot 26 00:02:12.639 --> 00:02:15.560 org. And I always love watching them. I just think it's fascinating, 27 00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:19.439 Like if you're just chilling out, just watch them, because they're just living 28 00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:22.919 their best life. You know. Here's what's ahead on wake up Call. 29 00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:28.439 The campus of UCLA is quiet this morning after a showdown between pro Palestinian protesters 30 00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:32.080 and police. Before down yesterday. The encampment at UCLA has been cleared, 31 00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:37.319 but the area is still blocked off because there's graffiti on buildings and sidewalks looks 32 00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:42.120 awful. About three hundred protesters left the encampment on their own. Two hundred 33 00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:46.960 and ten were arrested. A forty nine year old being held hostage by Hamas 34 00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:53.280 in Gaza has died. The hostage Family's forum says Drawer Oors marks the thirty 35 00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:57.759 eighth hostage killed. Hamas is still holding about one hundred hostages and the remains 36 00:02:57.759 --> 00:03:00.719 of thirty others. As It says it is sending a delegation to Cairo to 37 00:03:00.759 --> 00:03:05.479 keep working on a cease fire deal. We're going to be talking with ABC's 38 00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:07.800 Jordana Miller about that in just a few minutes. We're trying to talk to 39 00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:12.159 her. Yesterday and had to switch some stuff around, but we had blake 40 00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:15.400 at UCLA and that kind of I guess Trump did. But we get to 41 00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:19.800 talk to Jordana today. Wake up calls going out and about to the La 42 00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:23.400 County Fair. That's good news for you because we have four pack four packs 43 00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:25.919 of tickets to give away. That's coming up in about twenty minutes and will 44 00:03:25.960 --> 00:03:30.520 you fall for the fall guy. We're going to be talking with ABC's Jason 45 00:03:30.759 --> 00:03:36.159 Nathansen about that and about how you're about to get hacked, and that's a 46 00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:38.319 good thing. Let's get started with some of the stories coming out of the 47 00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:43.919 KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Nearly twenty two hundred people have been arrested during 48 00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:50.120 pro Palestinian protests college campuses across the US. Officials say some police used riot 49 00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:53.400 gear, tactical vehicles, and flash bang devices to clear tens, camps and 50 00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:59.919 occupied buildings. They say one officer even accidentally fired his gun inside and Admit 51 00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:04.360 Ministration building at Columbia University earlier this week. No one was hurt. USC 52 00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:12.400 has updated security procedures ahead of commencement ceremonies. It comes after the university canceled 53 00:04:12.479 --> 00:04:17.720 its valedictorian speech over safety concerns. USC says car and pedestrian access to the 54 00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:24.759 campus is limited to the McCarthy and McClintock entrances, and access is still limited 55 00:04:24.800 --> 00:04:29.920 to students and employees with IDs. Officials say all bags are being searched at 56 00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:32.920 entry. Commencement events start on May eighth and go through the eleventh. A 57 00:04:32.959 --> 00:04:38.560 person accused of driving a car toward a crowd of pro Palestinian protesters at Portland 58 00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:42.800 State University in Oregon has been arrested. The driver sped toward the group, 59 00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:47.360 but stopped before hitting anyone. Police say the driver then ran off while spraying 60 00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:53.639 what appeared to be pepper spray yesterday at protesters who confronted him. Demonstrators damaged 61 00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:57.759 the car by smashing in windows and spray painting graffiti on it. The Portland 62 00:04:57.839 --> 00:05:02.480 Police Bureau says the driver was taken a hospital and is on a mental healthhold. 63 00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:06.560 Police have arrested a guy with a gun who crashed a corvette at Balboa 64 00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:12.040 Boulevard in San Jose Street in Granada Hills this morning after a high speed chase. 65 00:05:12.600 --> 00:05:16.759 Manhattan Beach wants to bypass the La County DA to prosecute its own misdemeanors 66 00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:21.040 like criminal threats, public intoxication, and trespassing. Our intention is to get 67 00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:25.600 them help, Manhattan Beats Mayor Joe Franklin says. The city is sponsoring an 68 00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:29.600 Assembly bill that's currently in committee which would allow smaller cities to not have to 69 00:05:29.639 --> 00:05:32.639 ask the DA for permission to put them into diversion programs for either drugs or 70 00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:36.519 alcohol or mental issues. It's not to put them into prison, but If 71 00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:42.519 you don't have that threat of prosecution, then there's no accountability. He says. 72 00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:46.199 The city has asked to prosecute quality of life crimes that are hurting businesses 73 00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:49.680 and homeowners four times and been denied. The La County DA has not responded 74 00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:54.120 for comment. Corbin Carson, kf I News, let's say good morning now 75 00:05:54.160 --> 00:06:00.120 to ABC's Jordana Miller in Israel. Jordana, we're just getting word that one 76 00:06:00.199 --> 00:06:04.319 of the hostages who's been held in Gaza has died. Do you have any 77 00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:11.759 more information about that? That's right, the State of Israel and his hometown, 78 00:06:12.240 --> 00:06:16.240 one of the key Buzas that was attacked on October seventh, announcing that 79 00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:24.959 they've determined, based on various pieces of evidence, that this man drawer Or 80 00:06:25.240 --> 00:06:31.120 was killed on October seventh. So this isn't okay, this isn't this isn't 81 00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:38.000 new, this is nope. This is an assessment. But he was believed 82 00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:42.160 to be a hostage alive, and now they believe that he's dead. So 83 00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:46.560 he now becomes the thirty fifth hostage to be declared dead of the one hundred 84 00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:50.759 and twenty nine that Hamas is holding. Okay, I got you, and 85 00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:58.000 then yeah, we think that there are one hundred still alive, but you 86 00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:00.680 just don't know because aside from like we got a video of a couple of 87 00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:04.040 them earlier this week, but from most of them, have they had any 88 00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:12.879 contact, no, Right, So the there's a gap between there's a gap 89 00:07:12.920 --> 00:07:16.839 in our knowledge really between those that are presumed alive and those that have been 90 00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:25.839 declared dead. Right, So there's proof that thirty five are dead, and 91 00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:31.240 that leads about ninety five or so that that could be alive, but we 92 00:07:31.319 --> 00:07:38.399 really don't know how many of those are alive. Hamas has claims that dozens 93 00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:43.879 have been killed by Israel in part of its offenses in Gaza through airstrikes or 94 00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:48.959 other attacks. Of course, we can't rely so much on Hamas's information because 95 00:07:48.959 --> 00:07:56.000 it's proved to be false in the past. So you know, we don't 96 00:07:56.040 --> 00:08:00.639 we don't really know. We got two signs of life over the Rush Holidays 97 00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:05.800 passover. Both of those hostages Americans, which clearly Hamas chose to pick the 98 00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:13.360 Americans, knowing it would increase pressure on Israel to cut a deal instead of 99 00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:16.920 going into Rafa, which is what Hamas is aiming for. They want to 100 00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:24.319 prevent that operation okay, and there may be some movement. We're seeing that 101 00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:31.120 Egyptian and American mediators have said that they're seeing some signs of compromised in recent 102 00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:35.639 days in regards to a ceasefire deal. And now Hamas says they're sending a 103 00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:41.360 delegation to Egypt. Correct. Correct, I mean there is a there's a 104 00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:48.159 seat hire proposal on the table. It all made several confessions and Hamas is 105 00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:56.960 looking at that deal and now it's being continue are looking at that ceasefire, 106 00:08:56.519 --> 00:09:05.919 maybe making some minor changes before they submit. Their official response is this is 107 00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:09.639 the same deal. This is the same deal that tech chair see Anthony Blinkoln 108 00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:13.600 was talking about a couple of days ago. Right, So it's thirty three 109 00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:22.080 hostages in exchange for six weeks of quiet. These Reelly concessions are about redeployments 110 00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:26.600 of its troops where they're going to move. They're going to move off main 111 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:31.960 quarridors and highways. Uh not only just not only cities. And then some 112 00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:37.639 concessions on the Palestinian prisoners that will be released, giving up veto over all 113 00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:43.039 of the ones convicted of murder. In other words, in other words, 114 00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:46.840 the mus can choose some of the Palestinians that will get out and Israel cannot 115 00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:52.159 say no, and a few other issues. The real question is, you 116 00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:58.759 know, Hama is Hamas really ready to to make a deal. That's the 117 00:09:58.799 --> 00:10:01.759 main question. It's shown, I think in good faith now that it's ready 118 00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:07.639 to cut a deal and put off the operation in Rafa, either temporarily or 119 00:10:09.039 --> 00:10:13.679 you know, forever. And now that Baul really is in Hamasa's court, 120 00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:18.120 We'll have to see. We'll love to see what comes of it. Okay, 121 00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:22.360 I'm curious, Jordana. We've got all these protests going on all over 122 00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:30.039 the US and college campuses. Are they having any kind of effect in Israel 123 00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:37.840 or on Israel pressure. I can tell you that the protests from California to 124 00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:43.759 New York are headlining here and all of the major evening broadcasts, television broadcasts, 125 00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:46.639 they're talking about them on the radio, They're in the print press here. 126 00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:52.480 Visual President just put out a statement yesterday in a video message, you 127 00:10:52.519 --> 00:10:58.320 know, you know, pluging his support for Jewish students across America and condemning 128 00:10:58.759 --> 00:11:03.919 the you know, anti Semitic rhetoric coming out of college campuses. I think 129 00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:11.879 Israelis are stunned, really that this is supposed to be America's brightest students at 130 00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:20.039 top institutions in America somehow justifying Kamas's deadly and ghastly attack and seemingly unable to 131 00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:26.080 distinguish between Hamas, which is a terror group. They don't support peace talks. 132 00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:30.120 They want to violently overthrow the state of Israel. I mean, the 133 00:11:30.200 --> 00:11:35.320 irony that Israel gets accused of genocideing Daza, but the real party that's interested 134 00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:39.279 in genocide is actually Hamas. And we see that even in the chance from 135 00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:43.240 the river to the sea, Palestine be free, I mean, that's a 136 00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:48.200 chance that where Israel doesn't exist, right, So, you know, I 137 00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:52.879 think there's a lot of concern that American students can't see the difference between supporting 138 00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:58.559 the Palestinian national cause, which many people in the world do, and here 139 00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:03.279 in Israel as well. Palestinians want their own independent state. This is supposed 140 00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:07.919 to be, you know, ultimately as shared land, and those like those 141 00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:16.159 groups like comea represent you know, a throwback to violent rejectionist terrorism from three 142 00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:22.639 four decades ago, and they have hijacked the agenda, and these students fall 143 00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:28.639 prey to some of their propaganda and their anti Semitism, their demonization of Israel, 144 00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:33.080 their demonization, you know, of the army. It's it's very disturbing, 145 00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:39.399 I think for Israelis, that's for sure. Yeah, Okay, Jordana 146 00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:41.279 Miller, thank you again for your time. Sorr. We didn't get to 147 00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:45.120 touch base yesterday. Have a nice weekend and we'll talk to you soon. 148 00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:48.679 Yes, cooking, all right, take care.

The protests have spread to all corners of the country with 155 00:13:16.679 --> 00:13:20.360 the nation's eyes. Yesterday focused on the dismantling of the encampment at UCLA, 156 00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:24.639 where more than two hundred people were arrested. The city of Long Beach has 157 00:13:24.679 --> 00:13:30.360 declared a public health emergency because of a tuberculosis outbreak. One person has died, 158 00:13:30.440 --> 00:13:33.159 nine are in the hospital. Fourteen cases are linked to the outbreak. 159 00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:37.000 Health officials say about one hundred and seventy people have been exposed to TB. 160 00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:41.600 The outbreak has been traced to a group of people who stayed together at a 161 00:13:41.639 --> 00:13:46.120 hotel in Long Beach. A lot of sea lions have taken arrest on San 162 00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:52.480 Francisco's Peer thirty nine. Harbormasters says they've counted about one thousand sea lions this 163 00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:56.360 week, the most they've seen in fifteen years. Marine mammal experts say they're 164 00:13:56.399 --> 00:14:01.120 following a big school of anchovy and that is a sign the San Francisco Bay 165 00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:05.639 is doing well. Officials say the sea lions will eventually head south to the 166 00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:09.759 Channel Islands to do a little mating. At six o five at Tandle on 167 00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:13.799 the news, The arrests racking up. As I mentioned, more than twenty 168 00:14:13.799 --> 00:14:16.440 two hundred arrested at campus protests around the US, and a new one has 169 00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:22.720 cropped up at Chapman University. So wake Up Call went out and about to 170 00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:26.279 get a sneak peak of the La County Fair, which opens today in Pomona. 171 00:14:26.320 --> 00:14:31.879 At the fair Plex. We caught up with the Fair Plex CEO Walter 172 00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:35.240 Marquez. Walter, how excited are you for opening day? I am beyond 173 00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:39.960 excited. I love being able to bring community together. We just get to 174 00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:45.679 have a great time celebrating joint rides, but more importantly breaking bread, having 175 00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:48.320 some good food in roaming around. Oh and we're going to break some bread 176 00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:52.759 because we've been tasting some of the food. We just tried some catfish, 177 00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:58.799 we tried some beignets. I had a very at taco was delicious. And 178 00:14:58.840 --> 00:15:01.000 then of course we had to stop by Chicken Charlie's place and he's got a 179 00:15:01.039 --> 00:15:03.879 new menu item that we'll be telling you about in a minute. It's this. 180 00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:11.360 And then also there's cheeto dumplings, I believe, and bacon wrapped pickles. 181 00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:13.279 I mean, how do you go wrong with that? Well, I'm 182 00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:16.399 glad you just got started with our appetizer menu, and I can't wait to 183 00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:20.320 get you through the main course. Me too. So the theme of the 184 00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:26.840 fair this year is what star, Stripes and fun. I think it really 185 00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:31.000 represents the community as a whole, La County, the diversity that exists here 186 00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:33.559 in the nation and within our county. You know, there's a lot going 187 00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:37.000 on in our nation today. There's a lot of county fairs in our nation 188 00:15:37.120 --> 00:15:41.000 as well, so everyone's got a county fair experience there is. It's very 189 00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:45.600 rare that you can talk to anyone that doesn't have a county fair experience. 190 00:15:45.879 --> 00:15:48.080 We want to celebrate all that making new memories here at the fair. Yeah, 191 00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:50.240 in the La County Fair. I have to tell you, it's a 192 00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:54.799 lot different than the fairs that I grew up with in Oregon because this is 193 00:15:54.919 --> 00:16:00.600 Los Angeles County. I mean, this place is massive. We are there's 194 00:16:00.639 --> 00:16:03.720 no doubt about that. There's a lot of programming that exists here. We 195 00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:07.120 still keep the stables, the staples, right, it's agriculture where there's really 196 00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:11.799 where it all stems from. Entrepreneurial spirit is here. We get to program 197 00:16:11.919 --> 00:16:15.320 quite a bit, so you can make I think you can go to the 198 00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:18.519 whole day and not see everything at this county Fair. Yes, I think 199 00:16:18.519 --> 00:16:22.639 you're right. I've been several times. I don't think I've still seen everything. 200 00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:26.039 But there's the traditional stuff For people who love rides, right, the 201 00:16:26.159 --> 00:16:30.440 rides are here. RCS is back. There's great rides. There's a ride 202 00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:33.240 for you. You need to go on. It's called titan. Oh. 203 00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:37.480 It goes up high and it comes down quick. Oh no oh no, 204 00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:40.159 no, no, no no, I need like the kiddie roller. Well 205 00:16:40.159 --> 00:16:41.360 we have those two. Okay, yeah, yeah, we have those two. 206 00:16:41.399 --> 00:16:44.799 So maybe we'll do a Ferris Will ride or somewhere, okay. And 207 00:16:44.840 --> 00:16:48.240 then you have other great things like I was telling you earlier, the shopping 208 00:16:48.279 --> 00:16:53.159 pavilion. It's massive too, like you can find so many fun, unique 209 00:16:53.200 --> 00:17:03.080 things. We have over about two hundred square feet of shopping and sorry thousand 210 00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:07.160 thousand, correctly, yes, I'm Jordan Square. I can tell you've done 211 00:17:07.160 --> 00:17:11.319 this shopping here already. You know we have. And so the aspect of 212 00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:15.200 it is what I really enjoy is that we're able to bring in entrepreneurs displaying 213 00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:18.279 new items, and so you have the items that you're familiar with and you 214 00:17:18.359 --> 00:17:22.960 come to of like where are they. But we're also partnering with a firm 215 00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:26.720 called Black on the Block. They're working Promider out of LA. It's focused 216 00:17:26.759 --> 00:17:30.759 on the African American community. We're bringing them out one day. They're bringing 217 00:17:30.799 --> 00:17:36.599 out tons of vendors and we've got these great vendor experiences. I love that, 218 00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:38.880 Okay, and now I'm still used to the fair being in the dead 219 00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:42.359 heat of summer, but we were, We're in May. Now, why 220 00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:45.000 did we make that change again? Well, we've made a lot of changes, 221 00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:48.880 ye, partly because of the weather. That's probably the one everyone always 222 00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:52.079 kind of just draws upon. I don't know if you recall last Septembers one 223 00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:56.799 hundred and five, what would have been the opening day. We're looking at 224 00:17:56.799 --> 00:18:00.759 a cool seventy five opening degree weather here in La. It's perfect. I 225 00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:04.240 love that. And the fair starts on Friday and goes through when it goes 226 00:18:04.279 --> 00:18:08.519 through the twenty seventh May. Yeah, so we close on Memorial Day. 227 00:18:08.920 --> 00:18:14.160 We're open on Thursdays through Sunday. Okay, So Monday, no Monday, 228 00:18:14.200 --> 00:18:18.200 Tuesday, Wednesday, okay, Thursday through Sunday eleven to eleven except for opening 229 00:18:18.279 --> 00:18:21.119 day. Okay. Perfect. And where do we get tickets? Ali coountyfair 230 00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:23.160 dot Com. That is where you'll get all the deals, get all the 231 00:18:23.200 --> 00:18:26.799 information.

Tickets one, eight hundred five, two zero 251 00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:56.759 one KFI callers number ten, eleven, twelve, and thirteen. Now let's 252 00:19:56.759 --> 00:20:00.480 get back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour 253 00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:03.160 newsroom. The captain of the dive boat that caught fire near Santa Cruz Island 254 00:20:03.160 --> 00:20:07.240 on Labor Day twenty nineteen has been sentenced to four years in prison in the 255 00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:11.599 deaths of all thirty three passengers and a crew member. Seventy year old Jerry 256 00:20:11.599 --> 00:20:15.880 Boylan was ordered yesterday to surrender and start serving his sentence. July eleventh, 257 00:20:17.359 --> 00:20:21.720 thousands of dollars worth of merchandise stolen by smash and grabbers has been recovered by 258 00:20:21.759 --> 00:20:25.559 the La County Sheriff's Department. The operation happened in different spots all over the 259 00:20:25.599 --> 00:20:29.319 county. Were you looking for the products themselves or the people that are fencing 260 00:20:29.359 --> 00:20:32.880 it, so it's a combination of all of it. Captain Calvin Moss as 261 00:20:32.880 --> 00:20:37.279 the Organized Retail Crime Task Force recovered numerous boxes and pallets of stolen stuff. 262 00:20:37.480 --> 00:20:40.680 I was in South La early yesterday morning when a guy suspected to be a 263 00:20:40.680 --> 00:20:44.880 part of a crew was arrested. Moss says in the last few months, 264 00:20:44.920 --> 00:20:48.920 stolen items from Arizona, Nevada, and California worth more than one hundred thousand 265 00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:52.519 dollars have been delivered to and sold in La County. The operation itself kind 266 00:20:52.519 --> 00:20:56.240 of put a dent in this organization. It's kind of grown into that where 267 00:20:56.519 --> 00:21:00.839 you have people that break into these retail store, steal the products, come 268 00:21:02.119 --> 00:21:03.920 and then defense it. And we've been able to identify some of the locations 269 00:21:03.920 --> 00:21:07.359 where they're storing the products, cleaning the products, and then reselling the products. 270 00:21:07.400 --> 00:21:11.799 Since September of twenty twenty three, the Organized Retail Crime Task Force has 271 00:21:11.839 --> 00:21:17.000 recovered eleven and a half million in stolen merchandise in downtown La Steve Gregory, 272 00:21:17.079 --> 00:21:21.799 King of Fine News, thousands of fans came and went and left a lot 273 00:21:21.839 --> 00:21:26.839 of stuff behind at Stagecoach Country Music Festival following the show last weekend, and 274 00:21:26.039 --> 00:21:33.160 estimated twenty four tons of trash and usable items and usable items were left strewn 275 00:21:33.200 --> 00:21:37.319 across the nearly six hundred and fifty acre Empire Polo Grounds in Indio. Charitable 276 00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:40.880 groups are scooping it all up say. They found everything from camping gear to 277 00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:45.279 tables and chairs, to clothes, food, and even a portable swimming pool. 278 00:21:45.319 --> 00:21:48.680 Everything collected is going to be repurposed to benefit the needy. Wanted to 279 00:21:48.720 --> 00:21:52.319 tell you that coming up on Monday, we're going to be talking to one 280 00:21:52.359 --> 00:21:56.240 of the stars of the Netflix Is a Joke Comedy festival, which is now 281 00:21:56.279 --> 00:22:00.799 going on all over southern California. He's got third thirty three million social media 282 00:22:00.799 --> 00:22:06.160 followers. He just signed on for two more Netflix specials, and he's headlining 283 00:22:06.279 --> 00:22:11.000 the Netflix Is a Joke Show next week at the Hollywood Bowl. We're going 284 00:22:11.079 --> 00:22:14.759 to be talking on Monday morning to comedian Matt Rich. So we hope you'll 285 00:22:14.759 --> 00:22:18.119 get your week started with wake up call. The campus of UCLA quiet this 286 00:22:18.200 --> 00:22:22.960 morning after a showdown between pro Palestinian protesters and police before dawn yesterday. Boy, 287 00:22:23.039 --> 00:22:26.279 that was crazy. The encampment at UCLA has been cleared out. The 288 00:22:26.359 --> 00:22:30.119 area remains blocked off because of all the graffiti on the buildings and sidewalks. 289 00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:34.720 About three hundred protesters left the encampment on their own. Two hundred and ten 290 00:22:34.720 --> 00:22:40.039 were arrested. The second week of testimony and former President Trump's hush money trial 291 00:22:40.079 --> 00:22:42.759 in New York will wrap up today. A forensic analyst will be back on 292 00:22:42.799 --> 00:22:48.519 the stand testifying about former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen after court. Yesterday, Trump 293 00:22:48.519 --> 00:22:52.759 went and took some pizza to firefighters at a fire station in the city. 294 00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:59.519 Researchers at uc San Diego have created plastic that can recycle itself. How cool 295 00:22:59.599 --> 00:23:06.799 is this? Two UCSD researchers found that adding microbial spores to traditional plastic allows 296 00:23:06.839 --> 00:23:10.279 it to just break down in about five months. The process would add ten 297 00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:12.759 percent to the cost of a plastic item, but would allow the plastic to 298 00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:17.119 break down a whole lot faster, no matter where it winds up. At 299 00:23:17.119 --> 00:23:19.559 six oh five, it's handled on the news. After being very quiet, 300 00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:25.599 UCLA's chancellor is speaking out about the protests in the and the aftermath. I 301 00:23:25.640 --> 00:23:30.680 want to say congratulations to the winners of our four pack of tickets to the 302 00:23:30.839 --> 00:23:36.519 La County Fair which opens today at the Fairplex and Pomona Garland and Jason and 303 00:23:36.559 --> 00:23:41.119 Mike and Doreen, congratulations, enjoy the fair. Let's say good morning too 304 00:23:41.240 --> 00:23:45.119 the house whisper and the host of Home on KFI. It's Dean Sharp, 305 00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:49.400 who is a very tired boy. Because remember we mentioned the Netflix is a 306 00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:53.400 joke is going on all over La, and you went last night. I 307 00:23:53.559 --> 00:23:57.359 went, and we got home late.

That sounds pretty impressive. 312 00:24:21.240 --> 00:24:25.279 It was great. You know I went saw Seinfeld one time and fell 313 00:24:25.279 --> 00:24:29.119 asleep during the show. Did you really? I did? But I was 314 00:24:29.240 --> 00:24:33.279 very tired. Okay, it was what I was doing brilliant. Yeah, 315 00:24:33.319 --> 00:24:36.599 I wasn't very good with my sleep patterns and all of that stuff. No, 316 00:24:36.680 --> 00:24:38.599 I love Jerry Steinfeld. All right. Well it was a really, 317 00:24:38.640 --> 00:24:41.680 really good show. It's going to be a great festival. It's happening. 318 00:24:41.720 --> 00:24:45.799 I mean, there's a multiple locations all over there. People playing at the 319 00:24:45.799 --> 00:24:52.160 Bowl like your guest on Monday, and there are other clubs and venues all 320 00:24:52.200 --> 00:24:53.920 over LA for the next two weeks. Oh, it's crazy. Like the 321 00:24:55.480 --> 00:25:00.279 Egyptian and we're going to The Pantagious tomorrow afternoon for one of the shows. 322 00:25:00.319 --> 00:25:03.799 I mean, it's everywhere, So it's everywhere. It's like every every great 323 00:25:04.039 --> 00:25:08.279 comic on the planet is in Los Angeles for the next two weeks. It's 324 00:25:08.319 --> 00:25:12.200 just fantastic. Yeah, but you know what, we digress, Actually we 325 00:25:12.200 --> 00:25:15.759 didn't. We're not digressing because we never really got started. But let's get 326 00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:19.119 started on what you're going to be talking about this weekend on Home with Dean 327 00:25:19.200 --> 00:25:25.200 Sharp here on KFI. There are several things about your home that you might 328 00:25:25.240 --> 00:25:29.039 not know. So you're gonna be going through this twenty five list of twenty 329 00:25:29.039 --> 00:25:32.279 five things, right. Yeah. I thought it was an interesting topic for 330 00:25:32.319 --> 00:25:36.599 the weekend, just because there are so many things that come up in conversations 331 00:25:36.640 --> 00:25:41.559 with clients and consults. I get asked these questions all the time, and 332 00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:44.880 I'm like, really, you didn't. You weren't aware that this was the 333 00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:49.680 thing, And it's so some of them are really really enlightening, and so 334 00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:52.559 Tina, you know, was suggesting, you know, you should throw together 335 00:25:52.640 --> 00:25:56.599 at least a small list, and believe me, twenty five is a small 336 00:25:56.599 --> 00:26:00.519 list of important things that people don't know and yeah, we're to be covering 337 00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:02.920 them this weekend, so it should be fascinate. Okay, So I went 338 00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:04.160 through the list, and I know that we can't go through them all, 339 00:26:04.359 --> 00:26:11.359 so let's just pick out a few of them. One, garbage disposals are 340 00:26:11.400 --> 00:26:15.519 not that great of an idea. That is true. I know, you 341 00:26:15.559 --> 00:26:18.839 know, most people who have grown up on garbage disposals really like them. 342 00:26:18.880 --> 00:26:23.559 But I gotta let you know that as far as the planet is concerned, 343 00:26:23.640 --> 00:26:29.319 I'm just talking percentages. In the Western world. The US has the most 344 00:26:29.319 --> 00:26:33.920 garbage disposals of any country. Any country, about forty eight percent of US 345 00:26:33.920 --> 00:26:38.519 households have garbage disposals. If we go up north to our Canadian friends, 346 00:26:38.680 --> 00:26:45.279 six percent of households have garbage disposals. They've been outlawed by the EU in 347 00:26:45.799 --> 00:26:51.319 most of Europe. So why why why are garbage disposals not that great of 348 00:26:51.319 --> 00:26:56.680 a thing. Well, the problem is that they turn food into a mush 349 00:26:56.000 --> 00:27:00.400 and then they flush it down our sewer lines, where it then proceeds to 350 00:27:00.480 --> 00:27:06.359 build up in your drain lines and your home and in the infrastructure. In 351 00:27:06.680 --> 00:27:11.200 most towns, this film that builds up on the inside of sewer line pipes 352 00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:17.519 and eventually causes them to clog and or prematurely age. So the point is 353 00:27:17.559 --> 00:27:22.240 this, in an age of recycling and of composting, it is far far 354 00:27:22.400 --> 00:27:26.599 better if you're remodeling your kitchen or you're thinking, you know, I'm going 355 00:27:26.680 --> 00:27:30.640 to get a new garbage disposal, Just get used to scraping off food scraps 356 00:27:30.680 --> 00:27:37.359 off your plates into a little compost container or compost trash can, and then 357 00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:41.559 rinsing the plate with as minimal amount of stuff on it as possible in the 358 00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:45.799 sink and not just macerrating every little bit of food and sending it down the 359 00:27:45.880 --> 00:27:49.640 drain. And that's really the problem. Do not be surprised if in the 360 00:27:49.680 --> 00:27:57.200 next decade we find that garbage disposal laws or bands are happening across the country 361 00:27:57.559 --> 00:28:00.799 because there are just more more cities who are like, you know what, 362 00:28:00.839 --> 00:28:06.400 we just don't need that additional problem to our infrastructure. I love chewing up, 363 00:28:06.720 --> 00:28:10.880 I love turning on the garbage disposal churn and all that. It's fun, 364 00:28:11.119 --> 00:28:12.559 I know, fun, but it's not the best thing for our plumbing. 365 00:28:12.640 --> 00:28:17.039 Okay, here's another thing that you might not know. Most bedroom windows 366 00:28:17.039 --> 00:28:23.039 should be doors. What well, this is purely from a design perspective, 367 00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:30.480 and it really has to do with the classic California ranch style house here in 368 00:28:30.599 --> 00:28:33.640 southern California, which so many people live in. But here's the thing. 369 00:28:34.160 --> 00:28:42.160 That bedroom window that is on the single story bedroom that has a chance of 370 00:28:42.240 --> 00:28:48.559 looking out over the backyard right which most bedrooms in single story ranch style houses 371 00:28:48.599 --> 00:28:52.720 do. That bedroom window, the sill and the window could be taken out 372 00:28:52.920 --> 00:28:59.240 so quickly because the header that supports the wall up above doesn't change and move. 373 00:28:59.640 --> 00:29:04.160 And what a great thing for a bedroom, especially master bedrooms, but 374 00:29:04.279 --> 00:29:10.839 definitely any bedroom that can to have its own sliding glass door, access to 375 00:29:11.200 --> 00:29:15.079 the rear yard, its own little patio, its own little bit of the 376 00:29:15.079 --> 00:29:19.240 garden. Double the amount of light that's coming into that room just by the 377 00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:23.880 sake of adding that much more glass from where the sill was down to the 378 00:29:23.920 --> 00:29:29.759 floor. So yeah, most windows, probably in bedrooms should be doors. 379 00:29:29.880 --> 00:29:33.920 Okay, here's a couple more quick ones. Your patio furniture is probably in 380 00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:37.160 the wrong place. Absolutely, What do you mean by that? I would 381 00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:41.759 say ninety eight percent of the patio furniture that I've seen on Southern California patios 382 00:29:41.839 --> 00:29:48.759 is when you walk right outside the patio door where most builders have poured the 383 00:29:48.799 --> 00:29:52.559 patiocondre. There's the furniture right there, sitting right there next to the house, 384 00:29:53.519 --> 00:29:57.920 against the heat of the stucco wall of the house. Honestly, if 385 00:29:57.920 --> 00:30:03.119 you were to walk through your yard amy and actually decide, forget about furniture, 386 00:30:03.319 --> 00:30:07.680 just walk around your yard and decide where is the place I like to 387 00:30:07.720 --> 00:30:11.279 stand in my yard the most. Almost always, it's not right up next 388 00:30:11.279 --> 00:30:15.599 to the house. It's somewhere out in the yard. And my argument as 389 00:30:15.640 --> 00:30:19.599 a designer is that's where we should set up your sitting area. Okay there, 390 00:30:19.799 --> 00:30:23.359 it's kind of like furniture inside the house. It shouldn't all be pushed 391 00:30:23.440 --> 00:30:27.759 up against the walls. It should be absolutely and it should be a destination. 392 00:30:27.880 --> 00:30:33.880 We can create a destination space out away from the home and then you 393 00:30:33.920 --> 00:30:37.039 get to spend time in the most pleasant part of the yard. Okay, 394 00:30:37.079 --> 00:30:41.000 and real quick, because mosquito season is upon us. Bug zappers don't work 395 00:30:41.000 --> 00:30:45.920 on mosquitoes. They don't. They just don't. So you know, they 396 00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:48.799 kill just about every other insect that's out there, most of which you don't 397 00:30:49.000 --> 00:30:56.640 necessarily one a half killed, but mosquitoes are not attracted to UV light. 398 00:30:56.720 --> 00:31:00.839 They are attracted to CO two. Now they are attracted to you exactly. 399 00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:04.799 It is the carbon dioxide that's actually coming off of us, Okay, that 400 00:31:06.240 --> 00:31:10.319 the plumes that they can see that they are attracted to. So the only 401 00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:14.480 real way to get mosquitoes away from you, other than wearing repellent on your 402 00:31:14.480 --> 00:31:18.759 skin, is to actually put a CO two attractor somewhere further away in the 403 00:31:18.839 --> 00:31:23.000 yard, so it makes a bigger plume of CO two than you, and 404 00:31:23.039 --> 00:31:27.240 they go there instead of towards you. Okay, there are twenty five important 405 00:31:27.319 --> 00:31:30.119 things that you need to know, and Dean's going to be talking about all 406 00:31:30.160 --> 00:31:34.920 of them this weekend on Home with Dean Sharp right here on KFI six to 407 00:31:36.000 --> 00:31:41.160 eight am on Saturday, nine to noon on Sunday. You can also follow 408 00:31:41.200 --> 00:31:44.799 them at Home with Dean. Thank you, Dean Sharp, Thank you, 409 00:31:44.799 --> 00:31:48.599 Amy, Go get some sleep. I will. Police have arrested more than 410 00:31:48.599 --> 00:31:52.680 two thousand people involved in a pro Palestinian protest at college campuses across the US 411 00:31:52.720 --> 00:31:56.119 in recent weeks. The protest has spread to all corners of the country, 412 00:31:56.160 --> 00:32:01.480 with the nation's eyes yesterday focused right here and and the dismantling of the encampment 413 00:32:01.559 --> 00:32:07.920 at UCLA. Two hundred ten people were arrested. The city of Long Beach 414 00:32:07.960 --> 00:32:12.480 is declared a public health emergency because of tuberculosis. One person has died niner 415 00:32:12.519 --> 00:32:15.440 in the hospital. Fourteen cases have been linked to the outbreak. Health officials 416 00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:20.359 say about one hundred and seventy people have been exposed to TB and they are 417 00:32:20.440 --> 00:32:24.359 reaching out to let them know. The first of the Triple Crown Races happens 418 00:32:24.400 --> 00:32:30.279 tomorrow at Churchill Down's Post. Time for the one hundred and fiftieth Kentucky Derby 419 00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:36.079 is three fifty seven hour time in the afternoon. Fierceness is the favorite at 420 00:32:36.119 --> 00:32:39.640 five and two odds, followed by Seria Leone at three to one, and 421 00:32:39.759 --> 00:32:44.880 catching Freedom Love that Name with eight to one odds. We're just minutes away 422 00:32:44.920 --> 00:32:49.359 from a handle on the news this morning. Secret audio tapes of former President 423 00:32:49.400 --> 00:32:52.240 Trump and Michael Cohen were played in the courtroom yesterday during the hush money trial. 424 00:32:52.519 --> 00:33:00.960 Apparently Cohen recorded everything let's say good morning now to ABC's entered Haymond Guru. 425 00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:07.680 It's Jason Nathanson. Jason is the fall guy, the sexy Bacon you've 426 00:33:07.680 --> 00:33:10.759 seen the movie. Apparently. I saw the movie last night. Yes, 427 00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:19.759 I This is based on the nineteen eighties TV series starring Lee Majors and which 428 00:33:19.839 --> 00:33:22.000 you know, again, it's one of these things. I don't know that 429 00:33:22.039 --> 00:33:27.720 anybody's necessarily looking for a reboot. And it seems like a weird vehicle for 430 00:33:28.000 --> 00:33:32.039 Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt, who are arguably two of the biggest stars of 431 00:33:32.160 --> 00:33:37.440 right now. Right He was nominated for an Oscar for Barbie from last year, 432 00:33:37.680 --> 00:33:40.839 she was nominated for Oppenheimer, and the two of them now coming together 433 00:33:40.920 --> 00:33:45.640 in this film, and they are true movie stars in the truest sense of 434 00:33:45.680 --> 00:33:47.480 the word. I think, you know, you would watch them do just 435 00:33:47.519 --> 00:33:52.960 about anything, even if a movie isn't necessarily great, and I don't know 436 00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:55.000 that this movie is necessarily great. But when they are on screen together, 437 00:33:55.279 --> 00:33:59.319 I think it's magic. I think the two of them are really good together. 438 00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:04.160 I think there are some really funny stuff going on here. Unfortunately, 439 00:34:04.440 --> 00:34:08.480 and this is he plays a stuntman who is he's injured on the job and 440 00:34:08.639 --> 00:34:13.880 kind of retreats from the industry, and then he gets pulled back in on 441 00:34:13.960 --> 00:34:16.800 a movie that she is directing. But then it turns into this action movie, 442 00:34:16.840 --> 00:34:22.519 which I didn't necessarily really need. It's so much better, I think 443 00:34:22.639 --> 00:34:25.440 as a Hollywood satire because when it's really leaning into that, I think it's 444 00:34:25.480 --> 00:34:29.599 really really funny, and I think the two of them are funny and fun 445 00:34:29.719 --> 00:34:34.280 together. The action stuff, though it gets a little boring, and action 446 00:34:34.360 --> 00:34:37.920 stuff does for me. It's really hard to do this stuff and make it 447 00:34:37.960 --> 00:34:40.800 interesting. But it's also a love letter to stunt people. Yeah, and 448 00:34:42.800 --> 00:34:46.159 I really I do appreciate that often the unsung heroes of the industry who don't 449 00:34:46.159 --> 00:34:51.559 get enough credit, so I know they feel they have to lean into that 450 00:34:51.599 --> 00:34:55.480 stunt stuff as well. But when the writing is good, it's really funny. 451 00:34:55.639 --> 00:34:59.519 There's an end credit scene that's also kind of fun if you want to 452 00:34:59.519 --> 00:35:01.719 stick around for the end, as you should, because so many movies are 453 00:35:01.719 --> 00:35:06.519 doing those little funny little things at the end. Yeah, so I like 454 00:35:06.599 --> 00:35:09.119 that, you know. So overall a little uneven, but the parts that 455 00:35:09.159 --> 00:35:13.719 I liked, I really really did like, and I did like watching at 456 00:35:13.719 --> 00:35:15.960 the theater. So I'm a seven point three out of ten for me on 457 00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:22.760 this film. Well that's a little bit conservative, don't you think. No, 458 00:35:22.800 --> 00:35:24.280 I'm just kidding. I agree with you. I think it was really 459 00:35:24.360 --> 00:35:30.000 it was an entertaining movie. Yeah, but it wasn't like I mean, 460 00:35:30.039 --> 00:35:31.960 there was I agree with you kind of on everything you said. I thought 461 00:35:32.000 --> 00:35:35.880 there was too much action. Yeah, I think there could have been a 462 00:35:35.920 --> 00:35:39.199 little more story. Yeah. The first hour is really really good. Yeah. 463 00:35:39.280 --> 00:35:44.760 Yeah, and then and then it kind of yeah, when it starts 464 00:35:44.800 --> 00:35:47.519 to get into this action story where he's hunting for the bad guys and stuff 465 00:35:47.559 --> 00:35:52.119 like that, then I cared a little bit less. And that also took 466 00:35:52.159 --> 00:35:54.039 the two of them away from each other. Yea, right, Emily Blunt 467 00:35:54.039 --> 00:35:57.599 and Ryan Gossling. In the first hour or so, there's a lot of 468 00:35:57.599 --> 00:36:00.679 them interacting and when they're when they're there's a you know, there's a great 469 00:36:00.679 --> 00:36:06.679 scene where she's directing him in the movie in Australia, and they're really really 470 00:36:06.719 --> 00:36:08.960 good together. I loved all that kind of stuff. So, you know, 471 00:36:09.039 --> 00:36:12.559 I hope to see I think we're gonna see more from them in the 472 00:36:12.559 --> 00:36:15.199 future, the two of them together there. They're a lot of fun, 473 00:36:15.360 --> 00:36:21.119 are they the new Carrie Grant and Catherine Hepburn. They've got that feel, 474 00:36:21.280 --> 00:36:25.280 they've got that feeld you know when that that feel of an old Hollywood couple 475 00:36:25.440 --> 00:36:29.440 who you're watching them and you just you love the banter, you love the 476 00:36:29.480 --> 00:36:34.320 two of them together and you and it feels like they're not reading lines, 477 00:36:34.760 --> 00:36:37.960 right, it feels like they're just talking like they like this is a conversation. 478 00:36:37.360 --> 00:36:39.920 And if you've watched an they've been all over the place over the past 479 00:36:39.960 --> 00:36:45.159 couple of months doing press for this and when you watch them together you get 480 00:36:45.199 --> 00:36:49.559 that feeling too. They are good together. So it's not just for the 481 00:36:49.599 --> 00:36:53.280 movie. Yeah, okay, so now doesn't switch into the stream. Jason 482 00:36:53.360 --> 00:37:00.800 has been slaving away over a hot TV I have. There's a lot coming 483 00:37:00.840 --> 00:37:04.199 out. There's been so much at all. Right, there's so much out 484 00:37:04.199 --> 00:37:07.760 this week, and I've watched at least a little bit of all of it, 485 00:37:07.239 --> 00:37:12.000 starting with the movie Unfrosted, which is on Netflix right now. What's 486 00:37:12.000 --> 00:37:15.880 that I haven't even heard of that. This is Jerry Seinfeld's ode to the 487 00:37:15.880 --> 00:37:20.599 pop Tart. It's a movie about the breakfast Wars of the nineteen sixties. 488 00:37:21.559 --> 00:37:23.599 It's all fake, it's all fiction, it's all made up. But you 489 00:37:23.599 --> 00:37:29.599 know Kellogg's and Post we're going at it. Then he's got like the heads 490 00:37:29.599 --> 00:37:31.880 of the breakfast families. Quaker Oats is in there, and he's a Quaker 491 00:37:31.920 --> 00:37:35.599 man. And you know, there's some really funny stuff in there, some 492 00:37:35.719 --> 00:37:38.199 really sharp writing in here from Jerry Seinfeld, who's the co writer, he's 493 00:37:38.239 --> 00:37:43.039 the director, and he's also the star. Jerry Seinfeld is an actor. 494 00:37:43.280 --> 00:37:45.639 You know, I don't know his acting was never the best of what he 495 00:37:45.679 --> 00:37:49.639 did. No, but he's still darned funny. But he but he is 496 00:37:49.639 --> 00:37:53.199 funny. He's great stand up comedian. He's doing some shows this week over 497 00:37:53.239 --> 00:37:57.800 the I don't know the exact days, but part last night at the Netflix 498 00:37:57.920 --> 00:38:00.559 is a joke right launched the whole thing. And that was at the Hollywood 499 00:38:00.559 --> 00:38:05.239 Bowl, I believe, And so you can you can if you if you've 500 00:38:05.280 --> 00:38:07.400 never seen his stand up I saw I got. I got to see him 501 00:38:07.519 --> 00:38:10.639 just a couple of years ago, so you're not not like in the height 502 00:38:10.719 --> 00:38:14.559 of the stand up days, he was one of the best stand ups I'd 503 00:38:14.599 --> 00:38:21.119 ever seen. But this film is very specific, I think for a specific 504 00:38:21.159 --> 00:38:24.719 audience. The humor in it is it's weird in a way that I appreciated. 505 00:38:24.840 --> 00:38:30.679 There's a little bit of airplane sensibility, mixed with Peewee's Playhouse, which 506 00:38:30.079 --> 00:38:34.039 and if you don't like a joke, don't worry, there's another one right 507 00:38:34.079 --> 00:38:36.599 around the corner. This is like a jokingm in it type thing. They 508 00:38:36.599 --> 00:38:39.119 don't lean into the bits necessarily. And you have a great cast here, 509 00:38:39.360 --> 00:38:44.679 including Melissa McCarthy. Hugh Grant plays Tony the Tiger. He's very, very 510 00:38:44.679 --> 00:38:49.239 funny in that. Christian Slater, Jim Gaffigan, Red Armisen, like Bill 511 00:38:49.280 --> 00:38:52.320 Burr, Amy Schumer, all the like. You know, so many big 512 00:38:52.360 --> 00:38:54.880 comedy names in this. It's not going to be for everybody. I have. 513 00:38:55.320 --> 00:38:59.400 I try not to read other reviews. I was told this morning that 514 00:38:59.440 --> 00:39:01.599 there's a review I think in the Chicago Tribune maybe that called it one of 515 00:39:01.639 --> 00:39:07.599 the worst movies ever made. I don't believe that myself. I'm a seven 516 00:39:07.599 --> 00:39:10.159 point four out of ten on this one. But it's not gonna be for 517 00:39:10.199 --> 00:39:14.599 everybody, Okay, And you keep giving the numbers, so I'm gonna call 518 00:39:14.639 --> 00:39:17.280 it the Jasonometer moving forward. Sure, let's do that, Okay, and 519 00:39:17.320 --> 00:39:22.760 then what what is the Jasonometer rate the new season of Hacks. This is 520 00:39:22.800 --> 00:39:27.480 a high one, this is I'll start with the rating nine point six. 521 00:39:28.000 --> 00:39:31.840 Whoa this is maybe this is a the best season of Hacks that there's been 522 00:39:32.119 --> 00:39:36.960 has been this show, there's been three. We've waited a long time for 523 00:39:37.079 --> 00:39:39.880 it. It's been two years. Various things happened in that time. Jeane 524 00:39:39.920 --> 00:39:44.760 Smart, who's the star, she had health scare. Also then these strikes 525 00:39:44.800 --> 00:39:46.280 happened. That's one of the delays. And I don't know if they took 526 00:39:46.320 --> 00:39:50.360 that time and sharpened things, or if it was just that good to begin 527 00:39:50.440 --> 00:39:52.559 with, whatever the case. And I think, you know, unfortunately, 528 00:39:52.639 --> 00:39:55.440 we're just used to waiting at this point, right, so it's not the 529 00:39:55.440 --> 00:39:59.400 biggest deal in the world, and there's so much stuff that you're like, 530 00:39:59.480 --> 00:40:01.119 Okay, this thing is going to come back, and it'll come back eventually. 531 00:40:01.159 --> 00:40:05.960 I would like to see two seasons of Hacks a year, right, 532 00:40:06.000 --> 00:40:08.840 that would be great, but maybe it wouldn't be as good this. It 533 00:40:08.880 --> 00:40:12.639 comes back firing on all cylinders. And in this season they get into the 534 00:40:12.719 --> 00:40:15.840 late night wars and it really doubles down on the kind of parody of show 535 00:40:15.960 --> 00:40:20.119 show business that it is and the satire where it is really sharp and doing 536 00:40:20.159 --> 00:40:23.840 that kind of stuff, and the relationship between Geen Smart and Hannah Einbinder. 537 00:40:23.920 --> 00:40:28.800 Right, Jean Smart plays a kind of agent comedian Hannah Einbinder, the gen 538 00:40:28.920 --> 00:40:34.639 Z writer who's trying to help her and refresh her material. Their chemistry together 539 00:40:34.800 --> 00:40:38.960 is fantastic, and the jokes in this are just really funny, really fresh, 540 00:40:39.199 --> 00:40:43.199 firing on all cylinders. I don't know what's going to beat it this 541 00:40:43.280 --> 00:40:45.880 year, Okay, Jason Nathanson. I wish we had more time because there 542 00:40:45.880 --> 00:40:51.199 are more things coming out. But thank you so much. And hey, 543 00:40:51.280 --> 00:40:54.599 I know what, maybe they can follow you at ABC News Jason to find 544 00:40:54.599 --> 00:40:58.679 out more. Sure they can. There you have it, Jason, thanks 545 00:40:58.679 --> 00:41:01.960 so much. Having a great weekend.
