WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.680 --> 00:00:05.839 You're listening to KFI AM six forty wake Up Call with Me Amy King on 2 00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:15.400 demand on the iHeartRadio app KFI and KOST HD two Los Angeles, Orange County. 3 00:00:15.400 --> 00:00:27.960 It's time for your morning wake up call. Here's Amy King. It 4 00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:34.000 is five o'clock. This is your wake up call for Tuesday, January sixteenth, 5 00:00:34.359 --> 00:00:41.000 twenty twenty four. I'm Amy King. Back to work. Well, 6 00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:45.479 for those of you who didn't have to work yesterday, Martin Luther King Days. 7 00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:50.320 This great, great holiday, but it seems like a lot of people 8 00:00:50.359 --> 00:00:54.520 don't have it off, even though it is a federal holiday. But that's 9 00:00:54.560 --> 00:00:59.520 okay, celebrating a great man. I was watching the MLK Junior Parade. 10 00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:03.400 It's the biggest one in the country. Kind of cool and Princess Tiana was 11 00:01:03.400 --> 00:01:06.480 there, Mickey and Minnie were there, so you know, that made me 12 00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:11.879 happy. So last night was a I was in a quandary, as many 13 00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:15.079 of you probably were too. What to watch. We had the Emmys, 14 00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:23.319 the NFL playoffs, and the Caucuses. What won out For me? It 15 00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:26.000 was really between the Emmys and the Caucuses. I didn't watch football last night, 16 00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:30.280 but the Bills beat the Steelers thirty one seventeen, Tampa Bay beat the 17 00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:36.079 Eagles thirty two nine. Let's head to the playoffs. Actually we're in the 18 00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:40.719 playoffs, but let's continue down that road. And super Bowl is late this 19 00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:42.920 year. Did you notice that it's like February eleventh or something like that. 20 00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:47.000 Why is it so late? It used to be on my birthday weekend, 21 00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:51.159 which is the last weekend in January, but not anymore. Here's what's ahead 22 00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:55.519 on wake up call. Speaking of the caucases, Donald Trump escored a commanding 23 00:01:55.560 --> 00:02:00.239 win in the Iowa caucuses. The results have the former president getting just over 24 00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:02.959 fifty percent of the votes. Ron DeSantis was a distant second, followed by 25 00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:08.360 Nikki Haley. Vivek Ramaswami dropped out of the presidential race following his fourth place 26 00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:15.719 finish. Trump won ninety eight of Iowa's ninety nine counties. A vacant kmart 27 00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:20.759 in Riverside could become a large apartment complex of city if the city council approves 28 00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:23.960 the project. Some neighbors say they're worried about increased traffic and whether the new 29 00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:29.199 tenant's children would put a strain on the school district if approved. A three 30 00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:34.080 hundred and forty seven unit complex could start taking tenants by twenty twenty seven. 31 00:02:34.479 --> 00:02:38.520 And speaking of the other thing that you know was what to watch last night, 32 00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:43.719 Elton John is now an egot. He's got an Emmy, a Grammy, 33 00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:46.479 an oscar An, a Tony after he was awarded the Emmy last night 34 00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:52.080 for his Apple TV special, which was his farewell concert at Dodgers Stadium. 35 00:02:52.319 --> 00:02:54.639 Oh what a show it was. He's the nineteenth performer to win all four 36 00:02:54.680 --> 00:03:00.759 awards and at seventy sixties, the oldest to complete the feat. So it's 37 00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:07.240 handle on the news. Ron DeSantis is claiming the networks engaged in election interference 38 00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:10.319 and last night's Iowa caucuses. We'll tell you why. Let's get started with 39 00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:14.520 some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour news room. 40 00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:21.879 Well, I want to thank everybody former President Trump has won the Iowa caucuses. 41 00:03:21.919 --> 00:03:23.800 He thanked Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who came in second last night, 42 00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:28.919 and Nikki Hayley, who was third. Trump says he thinks they both did 43 00:03:29.080 --> 00:03:34.039 very well. I also want to congratulate the Veake because he did a hell 44 00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:38.719 of a job and after that fourth place finish, as we mentioned, the 45 00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:44.680 Vike Ramaswami ended his campaign and endorsed Trump. The results are the first in 46 00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:47.800 what will be a month's long effort by Trump to secure the Republican nomination for 47 00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:53.280 president. The vaked Ramaswamy, as I mentioned, dropped out after falling short 48 00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:59.319 last night. As of this moment, we are going to suspend this presidential 49 00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:04.159 campaign. Ramaswami got eight percent of the vote among caucus goers. The Santas 50 00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:10.960 and Haley each got roughly twenty percent. Former President Trump got more than fifty 51 00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:15.439 percent. The LAPD says a homeless guy wanted for the fatal shooting of a 52 00:04:15.520 --> 00:04:18.800 dog has been arresting. Investigators say they found David Someone just after midnight Monday 53 00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:23.519 in downtown LA. He was booked on fifty thousand dollars bail. Please say. 54 00:04:23.519 --> 00:04:26.560 On January second, someone and the dog's owner got into an argument, 55 00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:29.920 and sometime during that exchange, someone grabbed a pillow, put it on the 56 00:04:29.959 --> 00:04:32.079 dog, and pushed a gun into it, and then he said it's either 57 00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:36.240 you or the dog. Detectives say someone then shot two rounds into the pillow, 58 00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:40.600 killing the four month old puppy. It's not known how someone got the 59 00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:46.040 firearm. Steve Gregory k if I News. USC quarterback Caleb Williams has decided 60 00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:50.839 to leave college behind and enter the NFL Draft. The twenty twenty two Heisman 61 00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:55.720 Trophy winner, who threw for more than ten thousand yards in his three college 62 00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:59.839 seasons, is expected to go number one in the draft. The Chicago Bears 63 00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:05.279 have the number one pick. Let's now say good morning to ABC's Tom Rivers. 64 00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:10.399 Tom, we just talked yesterday about the US hitting hooty targets and then 65 00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:14.879 got word that the rebels hit a US owned ship, the Gibraltar Eagle. 66 00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:19.959 Yeah, exactly. That's the latest one. A bolt carrier that was overnight 67 00:05:20.519 --> 00:05:27.279 and it hit the port side above the waterline. Minor damage. The crew 68 00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:33.199 is safe. It's carrying on with its journey, carrying describe it shipment of 69 00:05:33.439 --> 00:05:38.199 steel products. I don't know exactly what that is, but steel products. 70 00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:41.680 Now, in the past couple of hours, we had another vessel. This 71 00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:47.879 one is a Greek flagged vessel, the Zographia. It is a dry bult 72 00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:53.720 carrier and it was hit as well, same kind of storyline, minor damage, 73 00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:58.600 no injuries. It is continuing on with its its journey. But we've 74 00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:04.079 seen more of this in the houtis basically ignoring any kinds of quote unquote warnings 75 00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:06.920 from from the US, and they're saying them to carry on with what they've 76 00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:13.519 done until the Israeli incursion in Gaza is over. So then are we expecting 77 00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:18.000 the US to respond now because they keep warning and they've they've launched some attacks. 78 00:06:19.120 --> 00:06:21.959 Well, well, they don't want any other country to escalate, but 79 00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:27.399 the US may escalate. I guess that's kind of inferred in your question. 80 00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:33.959 And that's always a difficult one when you go into a conflict of this kind 81 00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:38.759 and you don't have you don't have a quote unquote end game scenario written in. 82 00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:42.319 Does it mean there's going to be a lot more military activity? Will 83 00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:46.319 it mean you boots on the ground, et cetera that's not been articulated by 84 00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:51.839 this administration and whatsoever. And certainly you know Britain had a small participatory role 85 00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:58.639 end of last week. Parliamentarians are asking the same questions. If we're into 86 00:06:58.680 --> 00:07:02.639 this thing, you better tell us what direction we're going so we can tell 87 00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:08.160 our constituents what to expect down the road. And that we've heard that nothing 88 00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:11.279 of the sword from Washington, nothing of the sword in Congress. Nothing of 89 00:07:11.279 --> 00:07:15.120 the sword in parlad here in London. Okay, So you mentioned that the 90 00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:19.199 damage to both of the Greek ship and the US owned ship was minor, 91 00:07:19.399 --> 00:07:26.959 So they were both hit by Houthi missiles. And I'm curious as to why 92 00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:31.480 the damage was minor, Like well, obviously because the the missile didn't have 93 00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:38.639 enough firepower, But is that because the Houthis don't have stronger missiles or and 94 00:07:38.680 --> 00:07:44.759 they're just like yes Anderston was looking at a study yesterday, of course IV 95 00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:48.399 it means supplied through to Orion, just like Saudi Arabia, which had been 96 00:07:48.959 --> 00:07:55.240 dropping missiles on the Hooties for nine years, were supplied by the US and 97 00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:59.759 the UK. But if you look at a cost wise, they reckon. 98 00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:03.680 These are pretty pretty primitive missiles, you know, maybe costing up to ten 99 00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:11.519 thousand dollars a crack, and if they're shot down by say a US vessel 100 00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:16.480 a missile, they could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to knock them down. 101 00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:20.439 So it's it's bargain basement prices. These these missiles that the Hoodies are 102 00:08:20.439 --> 00:08:28.079 firing, but very much more expensive ones by the taxpayer are being used by 103 00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:31.360 the US predominantly to shoot them down. And you mentioned and I know that 104 00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:35.879 we talked about how the US has shot down some of these missiles. So 105 00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:41.720 are are the hoodies firing more and just these are a couple that are getting 106 00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:46.080 through or are they just doing isolated firings. Yeah, well they had they 107 00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:50.600 had a slew of them the day before the US led strike, if you 108 00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:56.320 had a last week, and now it's been more just the occasional missile here 109 00:08:56.399 --> 00:09:01.360 there and everywhere. So maybe maybe they're they're they're using a different tactic, 110 00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:05.679 maybe their supplies maybe running. We don't know, but they're not going, 111 00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:09.480 if you will, with the shotgun approach. They're just doing the rifle approach, 112 00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:13.320 doing maybe one or two a day, and that's it, at least 113 00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:16.360 that's the track record over the past four or five days. It feels like 114 00:09:16.360 --> 00:09:20.039 they're just poking the bear, doesn't It Like just we're going to fire off 115 00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.840 one here and one here just to say, ha, We're going to keep 116 00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:26.879 going even you know, I mean it just it doesn't feel like an organized 117 00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:31.039 assault, No exactly, But I mean that's what's required, you know, 118 00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:37.240 and you got if you want to tangle up world trade, you can be 119 00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:41.039 the Hootsies, who could be quashed in a day if all the firepower of 120 00:09:41.120 --> 00:09:46.159 the US were leveled against it. But they're playing a game. And fifteen 121 00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:50.759 percent of the traffic the world trade goes through the Red Sea. We have 122 00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:58.279 liquefied gas tankers that are now stacking up off a cutter. Insurance companies are 123 00:09:58.279 --> 00:10:01.399 saying to not go through there. Uh, stay where you are. Guess 124 00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:05.840 what natural gas prices are going to be increasing in Europe in the short term. 125 00:10:05.960 --> 00:10:11.480 So it is in fact having a pretty good effect, if you want 126 00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:15.720 to look at it that way, punching above their weight the Hooties and affecting 127 00:10:15.799 --> 00:10:20.759 the world global economy. And are US ships which are in the area. 128 00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:26.159 Are they actively protecting the ships that are traveling through the Red Sea? I 129 00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:31.200 think it's ketch as catch can depending on where they are and where activity may 130 00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:35.840 be. They're not they're not escorting one on one. They don't have the 131 00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:39.480 resources to do that. But they're going to be in certain certain areas, 132 00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:43.559 certain corridors, and if something happens there they can they can steam and get 133 00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:48.000 close to the quote unquote potential action pretty hard and quick. Yeah, Well, 134 00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:52.600 it'll be interesting to watch this because it's just bizarre. Again. Like 135 00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:56.399 I said, it feels to me like they're just poking the bear, and 136 00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:01.200 it'll be interesting to see if the bear pokes back. Tom Rivers, thank 137 00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:03.519 you so much for your time this morning. Thank you. All right, 138 00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:05.879 let's get back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four 139 00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:11.000 hour newsroom. A man has fallen out of an RV onto the fourteen freeway 140 00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:13.960 in the New Hall area. Dash Cam video from another vehicle shows the RV 141 00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:20.480 driver loses control yesterday morning and then crashes into the center divider. After that, 142 00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:22.440 the door of the RV opens and the guy falls out onto the freeway. 143 00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:26.279 This driver says he rushed over to help. He was actually more conscious 144 00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:31.000 than I thought he was gonna be. Like, his biggest concern was how's 145 00:11:31.039 --> 00:11:33.200 my wife? So I was like, you're the one that just kind of 146 00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:37.679 flew out of the vehicle, and he was more concerned about her. Firefighters 147 00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:41.600 confirmed the man was conscious and breathing when they treated him. He is in 148 00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:46.399 critical condition. San Diego and SeaWorld are headed back to court because they were 149 00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:50.240 unable to reach a settlement in a lawsuit over back rent. During the pandemic. 150 00:11:50.679 --> 00:11:54.279 The city had sued the theme park for twelve million dollars in back rent 151 00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:58.639 and fees. SeaWorld says it didn't make the least payments because the city shut 152 00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:03.679 them down in early twenty twenty and it couldn't make any money. They'll appear 153 00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:07.600 in court in April of next year. Federal officials in LA say thirty one 154 00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:11.919 thousand machine gun conversion devices have been taken off the streets in the last five 155 00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:16.120 years. Simply possessing a conversion device can carry a sentence ab up to ten 156 00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:20.440 years in federal prison. US Attorney LA spokesman Kieren McAvoy says the devices, 157 00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:24.519 also known as switches, chips or auto seers, are considered by federal law 158 00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:28.919 to be machine guns, even if the person's caught with the device but no 159 00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:33.720 gun. These conversion devices can convert semi automatic pistols and rifles into fully automatic 160 00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:37.360 weapons in less than sixty seconds. One pull the trigger can release all the 161 00:12:37.399 --> 00:12:41.360 ammunition in the magazine. Macavoy says the devices are being advertised as legal, 162 00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:46.639 but that ain't true in La. Corbin Carson kaf I News, the Prime 163 00:12:46.679 --> 00:12:52.679 Minister of Qatar has warned of the massive destruction inflicted by Israel's offensive on Gaza 164 00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:58.799 and criticize the Israeli Defense Minister's rejection of a ceasefire. He says Gaza isn't 165 00:12:58.840 --> 00:13:03.000 even there anymore. Urged for a two state solution, the fighting in Gaza 166 00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:05.720 has been going on more than one hundred days. A woman in Israel has 167 00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:09.360 been killed and nearly twenty others have been hurt in what police have called one 168 00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:15.440 of the worst terror attacks since the war against Hamas began. ABC's Patrick Revel 169 00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:20.519 says two Palestinians stole cars yesterday and deliberately drove into pedestrians. We've seen a 170 00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:24.440 number of shootings in Jerusalem now. I think what this underlines is the growing 171 00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:28.000 fears of violence in the West Bank as we see tensions that really just continue 172 00:13:28.039 --> 00:13:33.759 to boil over fury, really from over the war in Gaza. Reval says 173 00:13:33.840 --> 00:13:37.639 at least four people are in serious condition. The drivers, who are reportedly 174 00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:41.679 related, were arrested. Fresh off an Emmy win for Best Special for his 175 00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:46.240 Farewell concert at Dodgers Stadium, which was fabulous, Elton John is auctioning off 176 00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:50.720 another batch of personal items. The items will go up on the auction block 177 00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:54.679 at Christie's in New York February ninth through the twenty first. The collection includes 178 00:13:54.759 --> 00:13:58.799 a pair of his platform boots, a grand piano, some art, Home 179 00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:03.120 to Corps, sunglasses, and more. Town and Country Magazine says the items 180 00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:07.679 are from a condo he owned in Atlanta. Elton. John held an auction 181 00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:13.159 in the late nineteen eighties that one raised over eight point two million dollars. 182 00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:20.720 Is he strapped for cash or something? Former President tump uh tump. Former 183 00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:26.320 President Tump. I like that. I think we'll stick with it. Trump 184 00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:30.720 says now is a time for the country to come together. His comments came 185 00:14:30.840 --> 00:14:33.960 last night in Des Moines after he easily won the Iowa caucuses in the first 186 00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:39.399 big test of the Republican primary race. Second place finisher Ronda Santis finished thirty 187 00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:43.159 points back, followed by former South Carolina governor Nikki Hayley. The focus now 188 00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:48.200 shifts to next week's primary in New Hampshire. Work to widen an eroded stretch 189 00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:52.360 of beach in San Clement he's been delayed for two months. The US Army 190 00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:58.320 Corps of Engineers has decided to wait until he can get better quality sand after 191 00:14:58.399 --> 00:15:03.240 beachgoers noticed the white sand near the San Clementi Pierre was being replaced with black 192 00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:09.480 rocks. Pope Francis says some people have jumped to ugly conclusions over his recent 193 00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:13.480 decision to allow blessings for same sex couples. Francis says the blessings do not 194 00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:20.120 equal approval of gay sex and aren't anything at all like the sacrament of marriage. 195 00:15:20.679 --> 00:15:22.600 At six oh five. It's handled on the news. The focus is 196 00:15:22.639 --> 00:15:26.320 on the Republicans right now, but the Biden machines taken in huge amounts of 197 00:15:26.360 --> 00:15:31.399 money as it gears up for the twenty twenty four election. Let's say good 198 00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:35.600 morning to the host of How to Money on KFI. It's Joel lars Guard. 199 00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:39.600 Joel, we have a lot of streaming services out there. A lot 200 00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:43.879 of people signed up for them over the weekend because of the NFC. Was 201 00:15:43.919 --> 00:15:48.759 that the NFC playoff, the wild card game, That's right, But I 202 00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:54.279 also was reading that about a quarter of US subscribers to the major streaming services 203 00:15:54.639 --> 00:16:00.759 have canceled at least three of them over the last three years. This was 204 00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:03.600 music to my ears because this is something I've been telling people to do, 205 00:16:03.879 --> 00:16:08.039 like I don't know for years now. Just because we have. When you 206 00:16:08.039 --> 00:16:12.440 look at some other stats, most people don't even know how many services they're 207 00:16:12.480 --> 00:16:18.000 subscribed to, and they vastly underestimate how much money they're spending each and every 208 00:16:18.039 --> 00:16:21.440 month on streaming costs. Since so it just shows up on your credit card 209 00:16:21.440 --> 00:16:25.120 bill, and if you're not sitting there looking closely at it, you don't 210 00:16:25.159 --> 00:16:29.039 even see I fall into this trap. Yes, and you're not alone. 211 00:16:29.039 --> 00:16:33.120 There's so many people where they just they they forget about it. It's understandable 212 00:16:33.279 --> 00:16:37.519 they're not pouring over their credit card bill like they should be, and so 213 00:16:37.600 --> 00:16:38.960 because of that, they're like they lose track. Oh wait, I do 214 00:16:40.039 --> 00:16:42.600 have paramount plus, don't I? And I am paying eight dollars a month 215 00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:47.039 for this or twelve dollars a month for that, and so those costs add 216 00:16:47.159 --> 00:16:51.039 up. And so I've been telling people like these subscription audits are crucial because 217 00:16:51.039 --> 00:16:53.159 it's those recurring costs that each you, even if they don't feel like they're 218 00:16:53.240 --> 00:16:57.399 terribly significant. Streaming costs have gone up significantly over the past couple of years. 219 00:16:57.440 --> 00:17:02.440 So what might been a six dollars bill is probably now a thirteen dollars 220 00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:04.319 bill. Like that's just how it's been going in this space, and so 221 00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:08.559 I'm heartened to see that more people are canceling. But then there's things like 222 00:17:08.599 --> 00:17:12.559 that wild Card game on Peacock. It's it's getting people to sign up for 223 00:17:12.559 --> 00:17:15.720 a free trial. Oh, they forget to cancel in time, and then 224 00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:18.319 oh, well, you know what, then they forget to cancel for four 225 00:17:18.359 --> 00:17:21.960 months after that. Those are the kind of things. We have to change 226 00:17:21.960 --> 00:17:26.839 our behavior. We've got to set calendar reminders to actually hit the cancel button 227 00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:30.799 so we actually unsubscribe. And the truth is, like less loyalty in general 228 00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:33.880 to these streaming service providers is the way to go. If one of my 229 00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:37.720 favorite shows comes back on Hulu or something like that, yeah I'll sign up 230 00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:40.920 for a month, maybe i'll binge it. But for the most part, 231 00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:44.400 it's just it's done with it. I'm done with it, and I can 232 00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:48.680 always sign back up in the future and they don't penalize you or anything like 233 00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:52.319 that if you cancel and then come back. No, That's what's beautiful is 234 00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:55.720 there are no contracts. It's not like cable used to be, those cable 235 00:17:55.759 --> 00:17:59.079 relationships where it's so you know, if you cancel, there's going to be 236 00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:02.880 some sort of penalty or you're locked into a one or two year contract or 237 00:18:02.880 --> 00:18:06.279 something like that. These streaming services, it's it's it's totally at will, 238 00:18:06.559 --> 00:18:10.359 and so you can sign up for a month and then you can immediately cancel 239 00:18:11.000 --> 00:18:12.880 even the day you signed up, and then have it for that month and 240 00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:15.079 then, guess what, You've already done the hard work of canceling, so 241 00:18:15.119 --> 00:18:18.880 you don't have to remember to do it later. Oh that's good, because 242 00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:22.599 like, uh, I think Handmaid's Tale is on Hulu. That is the 243 00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:27.279 only show I watch on that network. Okay, so you got to watch 244 00:18:27.279 --> 00:18:30.400 The Bear? Can I tell you that? Oh? Is that on Hulu? 245 00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:32.400 Wait a second, I do watch the Bear? Okay, so now 246 00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:33.960 there's all right, that's one of my favorites. But I'm caught up on 247 00:18:34.000 --> 00:18:37.519 them. So here are the services. Watch your credit card bill for them. 248 00:18:37.680 --> 00:18:42.920 Apple TV Plus got it, Discovery Plus don't have it, Disney Plus 249 00:18:44.000 --> 00:18:48.240 got it, Hulu got it, Max got it, Netflix got it, 250 00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:52.920 Paramount Plus got it, Peacock and Stars. Yeah, it's almost it's kind 251 00:18:52.960 --> 00:18:57.119 of crazy, like because early on in your personal finance talk fifteen years ago, 252 00:18:57.119 --> 00:19:00.559 it was all about cutting the cord right, and that was how you 253 00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:03.480 save money. And now the truth is some people will actually save money by 254 00:19:03.519 --> 00:19:06.599 going back to cable if they're signed up for the majority of those services. 255 00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:08.640 It's pretty crazy to think about, yeah, because I mean just reading off 256 00:19:08.640 --> 00:19:11.920 this list with the ones that I have, So there's six, there's fifteen, 257 00:19:11.960 --> 00:19:15.359 there's twenty five. I mean that's like seventy dollars right there. Yeah. 258 00:19:15.440 --> 00:19:18.799 Yeah, it adds up real quick. And I think we're going to 259 00:19:18.839 --> 00:19:22.680 see more consolidation in the space this year, which I'm hoping is going to 260 00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:25.880 bring prices down a little bit and cause people to need to sign up for 261 00:19:25.960 --> 00:19:29.880 fewer of these streaming services in general. So we might see like slightly higher 262 00:19:29.880 --> 00:19:33.119 prices for each service, but a whole lot more content under each of these 263 00:19:33.160 --> 00:19:36.160 service providers, just as we see some of that consolidation. So I think 264 00:19:36.200 --> 00:19:38.359 that's going to be a good trend. But it's it's something we'll I'll be 265 00:19:38.440 --> 00:19:41.640 keeping my eye on. Yeah, I'll be watching it. But I got 266 00:19:41.640 --> 00:19:44.160 to tell you, I love streaming. I love to be able to sit 267 00:19:44.200 --> 00:19:47.000 down and watch stuff when I want to watch it. H I mean, 268 00:19:47.119 --> 00:19:49.480 it's clearly a winning model, right, I Mean, like that's what people 269 00:19:49.480 --> 00:19:52.920 want they want to be able to watch what they want to watch when they 270 00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:56.880 want to watch it, and like instead of sitting down at Thursday night at 271 00:19:56.920 --> 00:20:00.519 eight pm to watch your favorite show, that's just there for you when you 272 00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:03.599 want to watch it, which I think, Yeah, of course you can't 273 00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:06.440 put that. You can't put that the genie back in the bottle. Yeah, 274 00:20:06.519 --> 00:20:11.640 okay, let's talk about another trend that you that you brought up in 275 00:20:11.680 --> 00:20:15.119 conversation called career cushioning. What is it? All right? So we're coming 276 00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:19.279 up with QT labels for all these different things that have just kind of been 277 00:20:19.960 --> 00:20:22.519 things that we've talked about, we just have never put the QT word to 278 00:20:22.559 --> 00:20:26.599 it. And so for instance, like the cash envelope method became known recently 279 00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:30.000 as cash stuffing, and so I kind of like when there's a neat little 280 00:20:30.079 --> 00:20:33.799 term to go along with it because it helps it stick in people's mind. 281 00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:37.759 And this one is career cushioning. This is the new term, and basically 282 00:20:37.920 --> 00:20:42.359 all it is it's kind of setting yourself up for success if something were to 283 00:20:42.359 --> 00:20:45.759 happen with your job. And I think this is something that we should all 284 00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:51.000 be doing on the RAG, like, especially if you're a w two employee 285 00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:56.359 because you never know kind of when contraction might happen in your industry at your 286 00:20:56.400 --> 00:21:00.599 specific employer, and so it's always a good idea not to be and not 287 00:21:00.640 --> 00:21:03.119 to have this cloud hanging over your head about what am I going to do 288 00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:07.039 next, or be fearful about getting laid off, but instead get prepared. 289 00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:11.519 And so there's a couple of things that you can do that what really career 290 00:21:11.519 --> 00:21:15.240 cushioning is all about in my mind, and that is to one, the 291 00:21:15.279 --> 00:21:19.680 best thing you can do is to have cash savings, because if you're gonna 292 00:21:19.680 --> 00:21:22.240 if you lose your job, that's gonna be the most helpful thing, right 293 00:21:22.359 --> 00:21:26.279 is to have something like six months of an emergency fund built up so that 294 00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:30.079 you're not like stressed taking the next job, even though it pays forty thousand 295 00:21:30.079 --> 00:21:36.160 dollars a year, less that you have time to get your resume out there, 296 00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:40.440 to contact your network, and to really try to find the next great 297 00:21:40.519 --> 00:21:44.240 job. So building up your emergency fund is like rule number one of career 298 00:21:44.240 --> 00:21:45.960 cushioning. And the next thing I just kind of mentioned it your network. 299 00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:52.000 Your network is as some people would say, your net worth and who you 300 00:21:52.079 --> 00:21:55.400 know those contacts that you built up over the years, just staying in touch 301 00:21:55.440 --> 00:21:59.079 with those people like you put it on your calendar to every Monday or Tuesday 302 00:21:59.119 --> 00:22:02.640 morning, maybe send an nail out to at least one person who you know, 303 00:22:02.759 --> 00:22:04.319 not asking for anything, but just checking in, Hey, how are 304 00:22:04.319 --> 00:22:11.759 things where you are? Those friendly relationships inside of where of your kind of 305 00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:15.960 industry are going to go a long way if for some reason you did lose 306 00:22:15.000 --> 00:22:19.279 your job. For some the job market is great right now. Right unemployment 307 00:22:19.359 --> 00:22:22.880 still pretty close to record lows, but we are starting to see some contraction. 308 00:22:23.000 --> 00:22:26.200 We are starting to see layoffs tick up just a little bit. And 309 00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:30.240 so this is again not a cause to be fearful, but it is a 310 00:22:30.319 --> 00:22:33.680 cause to be prepared. It's my friend Jordan Harbinger says, dig the well 311 00:22:33.720 --> 00:22:37.039 before you're thirsty, And that's exactly what you're doing here when it comes to 312 00:22:37.119 --> 00:22:41.400 networking. You're you're maintaining those relationships so that the well is there for you 313 00:22:41.559 --> 00:22:45.440 if for some reason you might need it. I think I'm going to put 314 00:22:45.480 --> 00:22:48.599 that on my wall. Dig the well before you're thirsty. That's a good 315 00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:49.640 one. It's a smart move, right, It's a smart way to go. 316 00:22:51.079 --> 00:22:53.799 And I think sometimes we're just kind of we're hoping that things stay the 317 00:22:53.799 --> 00:22:59.759 same where we are or and and and hope is like fine, but it's 318 00:22:59.799 --> 00:23:03.359 not great strategy if things do, if the economy does contract, or if 319 00:23:03.440 --> 00:23:07.640 where you work maybe they lose a big client or something like that, and 320 00:23:07.160 --> 00:23:11.359 you're out, even if you've been there for ten, twelve years or something 321 00:23:11.400 --> 00:23:15.200 like that. So that networking is crucial. It's not just about asking for 322 00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:18.960 help from other people. It's about building those relationships and that mutual. That 323 00:23:18.039 --> 00:23:22.960 mutuality that comes from networking is so powerful, and it's called career cushioning. 324 00:23:23.240 --> 00:23:26.279 That's right. Joel Larsgard. You're so full of wisdom. And if you 325 00:23:26.319 --> 00:23:29.799 would like to hear more of Joel's wisdom, you can listen to How to 326 00:23:29.799 --> 00:23:33.279 Money right here on KFI Sundays from noon to two.

I just know, Yeah, I wasning. 337 00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:15.240 I was waiting the whole show for it too. I thought they were going 338 00:24:15.279 --> 00:24:18.000 to open with it, and it was just, I don't know, made 339 00:24:18.039 --> 00:24:21.480 me sad. Yeah, I don't think that was a highlight of it. 340 00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:26.079 But wow, and Succession six wins and the Bear six wins well deserved on 341 00:24:26.160 --> 00:24:30.599 both. I know, you know what, in Succession, I'm glad they 342 00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:33.680 won just because I hate them all so much, which again, and I 343 00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:37.319 always say, this means that actors did such a great job because I hated 344 00:24:37.359 --> 00:24:42.079 them. Former President Trump says now is the time for the country to come 345 00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:47.599 together. He made his comments last night in Des Moines after easily winning Iowa 346 00:24:47.640 --> 00:24:52.519 caucus's in the first major test of the Republican primary race. Second place finisher 347 00:24:52.720 --> 00:24:57.480 Ron Desantist finished thirty points back, followed by former South Carolina Governor Nikki Hayley 348 00:24:59.279 --> 00:25:03.440 worked to widen an eroded stretch of beach in San Clementy has been delayed for 349 00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:07.480 two months. The US Army Corps Engineers has decided to wait until it can 350 00:25:07.519 --> 00:25:11.119 get better quality sand. This after beach goers noticed the white sand near the 351 00:25:11.119 --> 00:25:15.960 San Clementi Pier was being replaced with ikey black rocks. The city of San 352 00:25:17.000 --> 00:25:21.000 Diego and SeaWorld headed to court after not settling a lawsuit over back rent during 353 00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:25.319 the pandemic. The city sued the theme park looking for twelve million dollars in 354 00:25:25.400 --> 00:25:27.839 back rent and fees from the early days of the pandemic, but SeaWorld says 355 00:25:29.079 --> 00:25:33.200 they didn't make the payments in San Diego because the city shut the park down 356 00:25:33.400 --> 00:25:36.960 and didn't allow it to make money. We're just minutes away from Handel. 357 00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:41.359 On the news this morning, Rond de Santis claims the networks engaged in election 358 00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:45.640 interference in last night's Iowa Caucus's Bill will be talking about that, but right 359 00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:51.720 now we are talking caucus with ABC's Stephen Portnoyd. Good morning, Stephen, 360 00:25:52.200 --> 00:25:57.160 Well, good morning to you. About thirty minutes after the caucuses started, 361 00:25:57.720 --> 00:26:02.440 the network started declearing Donald Trump the winner, which I guess is why DeSantis 362 00:26:02.480 --> 00:26:06.480 is claiming are crying foul right now? Yeah, I mean, look, 363 00:26:06.839 --> 00:26:11.640 his complaint is that the announcements by the networks were made as members of the 364 00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:18.680 Republican Caucus were listening to speeches and no one had actually filled out scraps of 365 00:26:18.720 --> 00:26:23.200 paper, and so the votes hadn't actually been cast. Look, I don't 366 00:26:23.240 --> 00:26:29.480 think that the thirty point margin of victory for Donald Trump would have been affected 367 00:26:29.519 --> 00:26:34.359 if the networks had withheld that announcement, because it's all based on entrance poll 368 00:26:34.440 --> 00:26:38.000 data. What you have to understand is as people are going in to the 369 00:26:38.039 --> 00:26:44.240 caucus site, outside of the door, there are a couple of poll takers 370 00:26:44.599 --> 00:26:48.759 at you know, a representative sample of precincts, and they hand voters questionnaires 371 00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:53.720 and they ask for whom will you vote? What are your demographical you know, 372 00:26:53.799 --> 00:26:57.400 characteristics, what are your answers to these specific questions about issues like abortion 373 00:26:57.599 --> 00:27:02.079 and whether Joe Biden won the presidency, and a whole bunch of other things 374 00:27:02.079 --> 00:27:06.440 that we can use to explain the sort of the themes and the narratives of 375 00:27:06.440 --> 00:27:10.640 the night. That data is collected and then it's reported in and it's analyzed, 376 00:27:10.720 --> 00:27:15.079 so we have data, and it happens that that data bore out the 377 00:27:15.160 --> 00:27:22.759 outcome. It is a time tested way of covering election nights, and you 378 00:27:22.759 --> 00:27:26.920 could have media ethicists and political analysts who can debate academically whether it was the 379 00:27:27.000 --> 00:27:30.880 right decision. Rohn de Santis is complaining, I don't think he was going 380 00:27:30.920 --> 00:27:36.480 to win the Iowa caucuses, but for the announcement of what our entrants polled 381 00:27:36.519 --> 00:27:37.880 data indicated, Yeah, I mean if it would have been like that's the 382 00:27:37.920 --> 00:27:42.000 complaint. Yeah, but if like it had been maybe three percent margin, 383 00:27:42.319 --> 00:27:45.480 maybe he'd have an argument, but a thirty point market. If it had 384 00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:49.000 been a three percent margin in the entrance poll, the networks would not have 385 00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:53.039 made the announcement. It was such an overwhelming And then I want to underscore 386 00:27:53.079 --> 00:27:56.720 this and say it one more time so there's no confusion on this point. 387 00:27:56.359 --> 00:28:00.759 If there had not been such a decisive indication in the Entrance poll that Donald 388 00:28:00.759 --> 00:28:04.319 Trump was going to win, the networks would not have made that announcement. 389 00:28:04.599 --> 00:28:11.240 Okay, were there any surprises Stephen from last night? The extent to which 390 00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:15.119 I was surprised was to see how wide and sweeping. Donald Trump's victory was 391 00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:19.920 he won among older voters, younger voters, rural voters, urban voters, 392 00:28:21.119 --> 00:28:25.000 suburban voters. He won among men, and he won among women. He 393 00:28:25.039 --> 00:28:27.720 won among college educated voters, which was a bit of a surprise, and 394 00:28:27.920 --> 00:28:33.079 non college educated voters, which has been his base. And so because it 395 00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:37.200 was so sweeping and so vast, he won ninety eight of Iowa's ninety nine 396 00:28:37.240 --> 00:28:38.839 counties. In the only county he didn't win, he lost to us by 397 00:28:38.839 --> 00:28:44.319 a single vote, to Nicki Haley. So the idea that we focused as 398 00:28:44.400 --> 00:28:47.759 political reporters on who came in second, because frankly with we all find it 399 00:28:47.799 --> 00:28:52.200 interesting, it's irrelevant. Donald Trump won this contest by more than thirty points, 400 00:28:52.319 --> 00:28:56.559 a more historic and larger margin of victory than in any other prior competitive, 401 00:28:56.599 --> 00:29:02.599 modern Republican caucus. So when you are asking at those entrance polls, 402 00:29:02.799 --> 00:29:08.000 Stephen, did you get an answer to why people are supporting Trump? Like, 403 00:29:08.039 --> 00:29:12.200 do they have a one number one reason? Well, we ask it's 404 00:29:12.240 --> 00:29:15.119 hard to read too much into this data, so we try to stick to 405 00:29:15.160 --> 00:29:21.079 what we have. What we have is we asked voters what motivated you in 406 00:29:21.519 --> 00:29:23.599 your vote tonight? What are the issues. We gave them four options, 407 00:29:23.640 --> 00:29:27.480 foreign policy, abortion, immigration, and the economy, and immigration and the 408 00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:32.119 economy tied for the top answers. And among the people who said so, 409 00:29:32.359 --> 00:29:34.519 most of them voted for Trump. So you get a sense that people are 410 00:29:34.640 --> 00:29:40.160 primarily concerned about immigration and the economy, and on those issues, Donald Trump 411 00:29:40.319 --> 00:29:44.839 offers them the best answers when it comes to some of these other issues. 412 00:29:44.920 --> 00:29:48.200 Those who said that, roughly, I think it was about twelve percent in 413 00:29:48.240 --> 00:29:51.680 the Entrance poll who said that abortion was their top concern. That's fine. 414 00:29:51.720 --> 00:29:55.200 For those people. They voted for Ronda Santis and that might explain his strong 415 00:29:55.240 --> 00:29:59.319 showing on the abortion question. They oppose abortion, they feel Ronda Santis is 416 00:29:59.359 --> 00:30:02.759 the best per to carry that message forward, and those voters voted for him. 417 00:30:02.759 --> 00:30:04.799 There were just not enough of them for those voters to say that foreign 418 00:30:04.839 --> 00:30:10.279 policy was most important. Well, the former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley won among 419 00:30:10.319 --> 00:30:12.680 those voters. But again they represent a small fraction. The majority of voters 420 00:30:12.680 --> 00:30:15.640 who came out last night said that they were concerned about immigration in the economy 421 00:30:15.720 --> 00:30:19.839 and they voted for Trump. Okay, And did people come out or did 422 00:30:19.880 --> 00:30:25.839 the weather really keep people away? One hundred and ten thousand people took part 423 00:30:25.839 --> 00:30:29.160 in last night to Iowa CAUCUSUS. Now, that's a small percentage of the 424 00:30:29.160 --> 00:30:33.079 population of this state. It is a participatory process, but relative to past 425 00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:37.279 Iowa caucus as it was significantly down. The high water mark for a Republican 426 00:30:37.319 --> 00:30:41.759 caucus was set eight years ago. In twenty sixteen. Donald Trump entered the 427 00:30:41.839 --> 00:30:45.400 national political scene, made his first appearance on a ballot, if you will, 428 00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:48.680 in the Iowa caucuses in twenty sixteen, and that year one hundred and 429 00:30:48.720 --> 00:30:53.640 eighty six thousand people came out again one hundred eighty six thousand in twenty sixteen, 430 00:30:53.839 --> 00:30:56.960 one hundred and ten thousand. Last night. You could see the impact 431 00:30:57.119 --> 00:31:02.079 that these dangerously cold temperatures had or out. Yeah, and uh. And 432 00:31:02.119 --> 00:31:04.680 then the other the one that I thought was sort of a surprise was that 433 00:31:04.799 --> 00:31:08.119 the vig Ramaswami dropped out. I thought he'd hang around a lot. Well, 434 00:31:08.400 --> 00:31:12.480 just because he has money, he spent more time in Iowa than any 435 00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:15.720 other candidate. He's you know, I mean, and and he placed fourth 436 00:31:15.880 --> 00:31:18.759 with roughly I think seven or eight percent of the vote. He dropped out 437 00:31:18.799 --> 00:31:22.079 last night, acknowledging he doesn't have a path forward and he endorsed Donald Trump. 438 00:31:22.680 --> 00:31:32.039 Hmm. Okay, so what's next New Hampshire from tonight? Okay? 439 00:31:32.119 --> 00:31:34.720 And is it just is it just the three left? Or isn't Asa Hutchinson 440 00:31:34.880 --> 00:31:41.559 still technically in the race, like he hasn't suspended. Asa Hutchinson is still 441 00:31:41.559 --> 00:31:47.200 in the race theoretically, I mean, in fact, he is still in 442 00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:49.759 the race. All Right, all right, thank you so much. There 443 00:31:49.759 --> 00:31:55.480 are there. I just pointed there are like two dozen candidates that will appear 444 00:31:55.480 --> 00:31:57.839 on the ballot, but when it comes to who's a real contender, you've 445 00:31:57.839 --> 00:32:01.160 got the three Donald Trump, Ron de Sanitis, Nicky Haley. All right, 446 00:32:01.359 --> 00:32:05.279 there you go. Thank you for that clarification. Stephen Portnoy. Always 447 00:32:05.279 --> 00:32:07.599 a pleasure. Let's get back to some of the stories coming out of the 448 00:32:07.640 --> 00:32:12.960 KFI twenty four hour newsroom. It could become easier to charge auto burglars in 449 00:32:13.000 --> 00:32:16.200 California. Prosecutors currently have to prove cars were locked when thieves broke into them 450 00:32:16.200 --> 00:32:22.000 to charge otto burglary. Senator Scott Wiener says under his bill, proving forcible 451 00:32:22.160 --> 00:32:25.119 entry alone would be enough to charge the crime in San Francisco, and I 452 00:32:25.119 --> 00:32:31.559 imagine elsewhere the prosecution, the DA is losing cases or having to drop cases. 453 00:32:31.920 --> 00:32:37.440 Pasadena Police Lieutenant Keith Gomes told KFI News yesterday that prosecutors often charge petty 454 00:32:37.519 --> 00:32:43.039 theft instead of auto burglary because of current requirements. Petty theft charges come with 455 00:32:43.119 --> 00:32:46.839 lighter consequences. Blake Trolley KFI News, a volunteer at a cemetery in Carson, 456 00:32:46.839 --> 00:32:52.680 says it's disgusting that thieves would target headstones and grave markers while looking for 457 00:32:52.799 --> 00:32:57.000 metal to steal. I'm so choked up right now because to know that they 458 00:32:57.079 --> 00:33:01.079 came back to try to take this wonderful statue of Lincoln. Aisha Wood says 459 00:33:01.119 --> 00:33:06.319 Lincoln Memorial Park was likely vandalized Thursday night, about a week after a cemetery 460 00:33:06.319 --> 00:33:09.680 in Compton was desecrated. She says about one hundred name plaques were taken. 461 00:33:09.799 --> 00:33:14.759 Families have been stopping by to place pieces of tape on their loved one's graves 462 00:33:14.759 --> 00:33:19.599 to replace the plaques. The vandals even defaced a memorial for African American soldiers 463 00:33:19.640 --> 00:33:22.599 killed in World War Two that was donated by boxer Joe Lewis in nineteen forty 464 00:33:22.640 --> 00:33:28.200 four. Thieves usually steel, copper and other medals to sell to recyclers. 465 00:33:28.640 --> 00:33:32.640 Succession has won six awards at the seventy fifth Primetime Emmy Awards at the Peacock 466 00:33:32.720 --> 00:33:37.240 Theater in LA. The show had twenty seven nominations going into last night's show. 467 00:33:37.599 --> 00:33:43.799 ABC's Rhianon Allie says. Some of Succession's awards went to actors Kiaren Colkin 468 00:33:43.960 --> 00:33:47.559 and Sarah Snook, and also won Best Drama Series. The Bear also won 469 00:33:47.680 --> 00:33:52.240 six Emmys, including Lead Actor Jeremy Allen White and Best Comedy Series. The 470 00:33:52.359 --> 00:33:58.160 night also produced a brand new ego Elton John with his win for Outstanding Live 471 00:33:58.240 --> 00:34:01.640 Variety Special and it was outstanding. It was for his final concert at Dodgers 472 00:34:01.640 --> 00:34:05.519 Stadium. You can still watch it on Disney Plus. I think I said 473 00:34:05.519 --> 00:34:08.480 it was on Apple TV earlier, but it's on Disney Plus.
