We've had all those low clouds and stuff, and at least 13 00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:18.079 in Burbank, we don't have them this morning, so it was just gorgeous. 14 00:01:18.920 --> 00:01:23.079 And here's something else that's fun today, Producer AND's birthdays today. And 15 00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:26.439 I'm such a knucklehead. I walked out of the door and I was about 16 00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:30.799 halfway to work and I went, oh, I forgot her present. It's 17 00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:33.560 sitting on my dining room table. But that's okay. That just means we 18 00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:38.280 get to celebrate next week too. I'm all for that. Okay, let's 19 00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:42.680 get started with what's ahead on wake up Call. Heat advisories have been issued 20 00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:47.840 for this weekend as temperatures are expected to top one hundred degrees in some areas. 21 00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:53.280 The National Weather Service has put out advisories and heat warnings. They'll be 22 00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:57.760 up from Saturday morning through Sunday evening for the Santa Clarita, San Fernando, 23 00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:01.400 and San Gabriel Valleys, the San Gabriel Mountains, Analote Valley foothills, and 24 00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:07.319 Analote Valley Freeway Corridor. The White House says it will rush delivery of air 25 00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:14.120 defense interceptor missiles to Ukraine by redirecting shipments that had been planned for other Allied 26 00:02:14.199 --> 00:02:19.319 nations. National Security spokesman John Kirby calls it a difficult but necessary decision. 27 00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:22.960 We're going to be talking more about this with ABC's Karen Travers. That's coming 28 00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:27.159 up in just about three or four minutes. State utility regulators have rejected a 29 00:02:27.159 --> 00:02:31.439 bid by AT and T to get rid of its traditional landline service for most 30 00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:36.439 of the Bay Area and for much of California. Critics of AT and t's 31 00:02:36.439 --> 00:02:40.639 plan said it would have cut communication lifelines off for thousands of older people and 32 00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:46.599 rural residents during power outages and natural disasters like wildfires and floods. ABC's Jim 33 00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:51.680 Ryan is coming up in about fifteen twenty minutes. He's going to tell us 34 00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:54.319 about a big, beautiful discovery in the bad Lands, and we're going to 35 00:02:54.360 --> 00:03:00.759 find out later this hour. If ABC's Jason Nathansen is revd up about what's 36 00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:04.719 coming out in theaters this weekend. That was a hint at six oh five. 37 00:03:04.759 --> 00:03:07.439 It's handle on the news right after wakeup call. A flyover that no 38 00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:12.639 one wants to see. A Southwest Airlines flight dropped to just over five hundred 39 00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:15.240 feet off the ground in Oklahoma earlier this week. Let's get started with some 40 00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:20.199 of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. A student 41 00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:24.199 at USC who fatally stabbed a homeless man near campus will not face charges. 42 00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:28.759 Ye Gascon says after careful review, he believes the nineteen year old student I 43 00:03:28.759 --> 00:03:31.039 even gayegos, acted in self defense out of fear for his life. The 44 00:03:31.080 --> 00:03:36.000 homeless man was stabbed multiple times after the student confronted him for allegedly trying to 45 00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:38.479 steal a car outside of his frat house. Police say Gayego's remained at the 46 00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:42.759 scene Monday night and told police the homeless man said he had a gun before 47 00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:46.199 stabbing him. Friends of the student who were with Gayegos say he had no 48 00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:50.240 choice but to defend himself. Police said yesterday no gun was found at the 49 00:03:50.280 --> 00:03:55.680 scene. Chris Adler KFI News. The California Supreme Court has removed a measure 50 00:03:55.719 --> 00:04:00.479 from the November ballot that would have required voters to approve any state tax hikes. 51 00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:04.680 It would have also raised the threshold required for voter approval of local government 52 00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:10.159 tax increases to a two thirds public vote instead of a simple majority. Alex 53 00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:15.319 Stone says. Governor Newsom and Democratic lawmakers sued to block the measure. The 54 00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:19.439 California Supreme Court unanimously ruling the measure could not be enacted because it would substantially 55 00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:26.000 alter the basic plan of government. The measure threatened to retroactively reverse most tax 56 00:04:26.079 --> 00:04:30.439 increases approved since January of twenty twenty two. More than a million people signed 57 00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:33.680 a petition to get that measure on the ballot. The US Supreme Courts expected 58 00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:39.040 to deliver more opinions this morning. Seventeen cases still left to come down from 59 00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:44.240 the Supreme Court, more than half of those of major political and social significance. 60 00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:46.399 A lot is going to be packed into the next seven days or so 61 00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:50.680 before the justice has gone their summer break. ABC's Devin Dwyer says the biggest 62 00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:57.319 case is whether or not former President Trump has absolute immunity from criminal prosecution by 63 00:04:57.360 --> 00:05:02.399 Special counsel Jack Smith. Let's say good morning now to ABC's Karen Traver's Karen, 64 00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:05.639 a big shift at the White House. A new plan is out to 65 00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:12.720 divert more missiles to help Ukraine in its war against Russia. But that's going 66 00:05:12.759 --> 00:05:15.480 to come at the cost to some of our other allies. Yeah. The 67 00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:21.399 White House said yesterday that they have made a difficult but necessary decision to reprioritize 68 00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:29.000 near term plan deliveries of some foreign military sales to other countries, particularly Patriot 69 00:05:29.040 --> 00:05:32.439 and Naysam missiles. John Kirby said that this decision. He's the National Security 70 00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:38.279 spokesman. He said that this decision was made because quote more is needed and 71 00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:43.040 it's needed now in Ukraine. So they're going to reprioritize the deliveries so that 72 00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:46.759 missiles, as he put it, rolling off the production line will be provided 73 00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:50.519 to Ukraine right away. The timeline on this is as soon as possible. 74 00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:55.839 He said that they hope to have these reprioritized missiles heading to Ukraine, the 75 00:05:55.879 --> 00:05:59.800 first shipment in the coming weeks, he said, certainly before the end of 76 00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:02.720 the summer. In terms of the delays, though that the countries who were 77 00:06:02.759 --> 00:06:08.360 expecting weapons, he couldn't give guidance on how long of a delay that will 78 00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:11.600 be. You know, when will they get their now delayed shipments, He 79 00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:15.680 couldn't say. He also wouldn't say who is impacted by this. That was 80 00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:18.959 my next question, and that was all of our questions yesterday. You know, 81 00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:23.480 tell us who isn't getting their stuff. He just said that there's a 82 00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:28.439 range of countries impacted and that those countries have been notified, but that it 83 00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:31.439 wasn't up to the United States to now identify everybody. They could if they 84 00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:34.920 wanted to, but you know, for sensitivity of course and security, they 85 00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:39.319 perhaps don't want to be known as the country is getting this stuff. He 86 00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:44.000 did notably say that Taiwan was not on the list of countries that now would 87 00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:46.240 have a delay, and that there would be no impact felt by Israel. 88 00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:49.439 So that was something that was a bit of a headline. Okay, So 89 00:06:49.519 --> 00:06:53.120 they did say that it didn't have to do with Israel, because that was 90 00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:56.759 the first thing that popped into my brain because of the little the spat that 91 00:06:56.879 --> 00:07:00.879 Israel in the US seemed to be happening right with the timing right now exactly. 92 00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:03.879 So those two things Taiwan not on this list of countries impacted and no 93 00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:09.480 impact felt by Israel. Okay, Now I have a housekeeping question. So 94 00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:15.360 the Patriot missiles, those are the defensive missiles, and what are Naysam missiles? 95 00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:19.639 These are another short term, short and medium range missiles that we've I 96 00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:24.360 guess have been sending and they need more of them now. Okay, but 97 00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:28.920 no one else is in active conflict, right or are they that we just 98 00:07:28.959 --> 00:07:31.480 don't hear about it? Yeah? I guess not. I mean I don't 99 00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:34.079 know, And that's you know, why everybody was kind of pushing of like 100 00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:38.600 who else has been getting these you know, who else gets these air defense 101 00:07:38.680 --> 00:07:43.240 systems? You know, whether it's Eastern European countries, you know, kind 102 00:07:43.240 --> 00:07:46.959 of on that eastern flank of NATO. I just don't know the answer to 103 00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:49.839 that, Okay. And then do we know, Karen, if these missiles 104 00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:55.560 are in addition to the sixty one billion dollars in aid or is it part 105 00:07:55.600 --> 00:07:58.720 of that package. They're just getting pushed to the front of the line. 106 00:07:58.759 --> 00:08:01.879 This is getting pushed to the front of the line. I think that this 107 00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:05.120 just kind of shifts what. You know, They've got the things that would 108 00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:09.319 be going, They've got the stuff that is coming from the stockpiles, and 109 00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:13.759 now this is putting them on the higher priority list for other things that would 110 00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:16.279 be coming their way. Okay, and I know we have just about a 111 00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:18.839 minute left, so we want to shift gears. President Biden's in full debate 112 00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:24.040 prep mode. Yeah, he was heading to Camp David last night. Reporters 113 00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:26.600 were asking him, you know, how he feels it's going. He gave 114 00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:30.399 a thumbs up. But now he's expected to spend really, you know, 115 00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:33.799 the next week, anticipated to be in debate prep ahead of that showdown with 116 00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:37.639 Donald Trump. No official events on his schedule over the next couple of days. 117 00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:41.600 It's going to be huddling with senior advisors at Camp David. That's the 118 00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:45.639 presidential retreat out in Maryland. Beautiful place out in the mountains of Maryland. 119 00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:48.759 Maybe it's a little cooler for him out there, but he's really, you 120 00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:52.600 know, spending a lot of time going over the briefing books and actually doing 121 00:08:52.679 --> 00:08:58.039 debates, like doing mock debates with senior advisors. Very different policy or approach 122 00:08:58.080 --> 00:09:01.639 than what Donald Trump is doing. We're told he's not doing mock debates. 123 00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:05.279 Instead, he's doing like policy discussions with former and current advisors and even some 124 00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:09.120 Senators JD. Vans and Marco Rubio. Okay, do other presidents or have 125 00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:13.279 they spent this much time? It just seems like a whole week, did 126 00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.919 not have anything else on your schedule? Is a lot, you know, 127 00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:20.960 I think because of the way this debate is, like there's one now and 128 00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:24.200 then there's one in September. There's so much focus on this when you know, 129 00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:28.879 I covered the George W. Bush re election campaign seven hundred years ago. 130 00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:31.039 Back then, you know, there were three of them, so they 131 00:09:31.080 --> 00:09:35.639 would take a couple days before each one leading into it and drop off the 132 00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:39.440 campaign trail for several days. So it was a kind of a weird time 133 00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:41.639 to be covering the campaign because you just they went down and went dark for 134 00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:45.360 days leading up to it. Okay, well we know the big debate is 135 00:09:45.399 --> 00:09:46.919 next week. We're going to be watching Karen Travis. Thank you so much 136 00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:50.279 for the information this morning. Thank you have a good weekend. Let's get 137 00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:54.360 back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. 138 00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:58.320 The LAPD is offering a twenty five thousand dollars reward to find the person 139 00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:01.879 who shot a man from the back seat of a car in downtown LA. 140 00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:05.159 The man was closing up his business on Alvarado Street back in April when he 141 00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:07.600 noticed two women arguing near a car double park next to a car with his 142 00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:11.679 wife and three kids waiting inside. Afraid for his children's safety, he begins 143 00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:16.960 to walk towards his vehicle from the rear side to move his vehicle or check 144 00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:18.919 on his children. Officer Chris motta Ken says as the man approached the car, 145 00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.960 the rear window went down and a gun appeared. As the man walked 146 00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:26.320 away, he was shot in the back, paralyzing him. The silver four 147 00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:30.759 door Toyo to Camri sped away in downtown La Steve greg ri kaa Fine News. 148 00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:33.879 A man suspected of trying to kidnap two young girls from the Mission Valley 149 00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:39.480 Mall and San Diego has been arrested. The Lice Lieutenant Daniel Meyer says they 150 00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:43.159 were able to catch the guy with the help of automated license plate readers. 151 00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:46.360 There are some features that are built into the system that allow for us to 152 00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:50.000 actively search for vehicles. In this case, we were very fortunate to have 153 00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:54.000 a full license plate for the suspect vehicle. Meyer says. The system automatically 154 00:10:54.039 --> 00:10:56.399 alerts all officers in the city when the car is spotted. They got the 155 00:10:56.399 --> 00:11:01.519 suspect in custody, who was later positively identified by the witness. In the 156 00:11:01.559 --> 00:11:05.159 first case, the man tried to run away with the first girl on Tuesday 157 00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:09.480 before she screamed and he put her down. His second attempt yesterday was just 158 00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:15.879 hours before his arrest. A lifeguard tower in Malibu painted with Pride colors has 159 00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:20.240 been vandalized. The tower at will Rogers State Beach was spray painted with homophobic, 160 00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:26.120 racist, anti Semitic slurs and symbols earlier this week. Local officials say 161 00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:31.960 the lifeguard tower will be repainted. The leader of Lebanon's militant Hesbolag group, 162 00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:37.240 says it has new weapons and intelligence capabilities that could help it target more critical 163 00:11:37.279 --> 00:11:43.159 positions deeper inside Israel in case of an all out war. Tensions in the 164 00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:48.720 region have been increasing since the war with Hamas began in Israel. Israeli's Defense 165 00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:54.799 Forces Lieutenant Colonel Doughton Razili says they are ready to take action. We know 166 00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:58.000 what we're doing, we're planned, we're ready, and we've been booing the 167 00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:03.960 plan for the last months. Ill if the government tells us to do it, 168 00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:07.039 we'll do it very decisively. The Biden administration says it wants to prevent 169 00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:13.600 a second war in Israel and has been pursuing a diplomatic resolution. A federal 170 00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:16.399 appeals court has rejected a bid by longtime Trump allies Steve Bannon to stay out 171 00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:20.879 of prison while he fights his conviction related to the January sixth attack on the 172 00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:24.320 capital. Bannon is supposed to report to prison by July first to start serving 173 00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:28.639 a four month sentence for contempt of Congress after he defied a subpoena from the 174 00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:33.480 House committee investigating the capital of riot. Bannon is expected to ask the Supreme 175 00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:39.399 Court to prevent or delay his sentence. LA wants to expand the Convention Center 176 00:12:39.480 --> 00:12:43.879 downtown before the Olympics. The city Council's Travel and Tourism Committee approved fifty four 177 00:12:43.879 --> 00:12:48.440 million dollars in pre construction design work on the expansion. Union leader Antonio Sanchez 178 00:12:48.440 --> 00:12:52.000 says it would be a boost of the downtown economy and construction workers. We're 179 00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:56.919 seeing a lot of restaurants close in dout Town, empty hotel rooles. We're 180 00:12:56.919 --> 00:13:01.240 also seeing a lot of unemployed electricians, too many for my comfort. The 181 00:13:01.279 --> 00:13:05.000 Convention Center is slated to host multiple Olympics events in twenty twenty eight. The 182 00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:09.399 full project, if approved, would cost close to five billion dollars in downtown 183 00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:15.120 La. Michael Monks KFI News. A USC student accused of fatally stabbing a 184 00:13:15.159 --> 00:13:20.240 homeless man on Greek Row who was breaking into his car won't face any charges. 185 00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:22.840 LA County da George Gascone says the nineteen year old student was driven by 186 00:13:22.919 --> 00:13:26.879 a genuine fear for his life and the lives of others. The student says 187 00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:31.519 the man he stabbed told him he had a gun. The US Supreme Courts 188 00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:35.639 expected to issue more opinions today The court has not yet ruled on Donald Trump's 189 00:13:35.639 --> 00:13:41.440 claim that as president, he's immune from prosecution. The court upheld a Trump 190 00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:46.320 air attacks on Foreign Investments yesterday that was meant to stop Americans shielding their foreign 191 00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:52.039 earnings from US taxes. Carol Burnett has placed her handprints and footprints in cement 192 00:13:52.159 --> 00:13:56.960 in front of the TCL Chinese Theater in Hollywood. Dick Van Dyke, Jimmy 193 00:13:56.000 --> 00:14:01.080 Kimmel, Urin Dern and Bob Odenkirk were all there for the so menting yesterday. 194 00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:03.279 The ninety one year old Barnette told the crowd how she and her grandmother 195 00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:07.720 would often visit the Chinese Theater when she was growing up in La and that, 196 00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:11.480 in her words, this is quite a trip. I love. Carol 197 00:14:11.480 --> 00:14:15.200 Burnett at six oh five. It's handled on the news. It's no three 198 00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:18.720 percent, but buying a house is a little more affordable. Now right now, 199 00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:22.240 let's say good morning to ABC's Jim Ryan. Jim, it's big, 200 00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:26.399 it's beautiful, and it's a billion years old. Okay, maybe not a 201 00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:30.080 billion, but quite a billion, no, but it's old anyway. Yeah, 202 00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:33.559 and it's pretty amazing stuff. Do you know that you live in Laramidia 203 00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:37.399 lara media. No, what's that? That was the big island continent that 204 00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:43.240 extended from Washington State down through Mexico, divided from the rest of what is 205 00:14:43.279 --> 00:14:48.320 now the United States by a big ocean. Appalachia was the other side of 206 00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:50.120 that ocean. Well, somewhere in the middle, up in what is now 207 00:14:50.120 --> 00:14:56.320 in northern Montana, there was a monster living Locas Sarah TUFs range of formus 208 00:14:56.559 --> 00:14:58.759 lived about seventy eight million years ago. Well wait, wait say it again, 209 00:15:00.399 --> 00:15:03.600 do I have to uh huh Locu Serratops range of formis okay? So 210 00:15:03.679 --> 00:15:07.679 is it related to the Triceratops. It is, ah good, a cousin 211 00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:11.399 the big three horn Triceratops. This was a cousin, you know, the 212 00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:16.799 Triceratopsis. Besides those big horns that it has, has that big flare, 213 00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:20.000 you know, that shield up the back of its head, right it kind 214 00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:22.159 of sticks up. This one had that too, But it also had horns 215 00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:28.200 on top of that thing on top of that flare atop its head, so 216 00:15:28.240 --> 00:15:31.240 it looked different. And it had more horns on its body and different spikes 217 00:15:31.279 --> 00:15:35.200 down its back. So, and it is thought to be at least by 218 00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:41.759 some scientists, a completely separate species from any other dinosaur that has been found. 219 00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:45.759 So it's a pretty remarkable discovery up there in northern Montana, the bad 220 00:15:45.840 --> 00:15:50.559 lands near the US Canada border. Okay, and you're saying it's a separate 221 00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:52.120 species. So this is the first time they've found one of these guys. 222 00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:56.200 It is first time ever. And to the people who've discovered it and who 223 00:15:56.279 --> 00:16:02.919 have been working on this project since nineteen it says that there may be animals 224 00:16:02.960 --> 00:16:07.399 and creatures dinosaurs that we have no idea about that are still left to be 225 00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:14.240 discovered. I wonder why dinosaurs were so big. Uh they just had a 226 00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:17.240 random thought, Yeah, like because they don't have you know, we have 227 00:16:17.320 --> 00:16:21.639 elephants now, But I mean, dinosaurs were so ginormous. There must have 228 00:16:21.720 --> 00:16:23.720 been some benefit to that. And of course obviously you know, they had 229 00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:27.600 plenty of ee, especially herbivores like this one. They could they had plans 230 00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:32.039 to eat all over the place swamps. You know that that part of Montana 231 00:16:32.039 --> 00:16:34.039 which is kind of desert now, it used to be a big swamp and 232 00:16:34.200 --> 00:16:41.039 it's the big section of Leeramidia was Okay, did they find like the whole 233 00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:44.840 thing or did they find pieces of it. They found piece and you know, 234 00:16:44.960 --> 00:16:49.320 hundreds of pieces of fossils. That great quote here from one of the 235 00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:53.720 palaeontologists who've been working on this said that they spread their stuff out on a 236 00:16:53.799 --> 00:16:59.360 table down in Utah. They carried it all down there to a lab and 237 00:16:59.600 --> 00:17:03.639 started finding that these pieces kind of clicked together, sort of like legos. 238 00:17:03.960 --> 00:17:07.960 Once it was all put together, they had this big skull sitting in front 239 00:17:07.960 --> 00:17:10.400 of They stood back and looked at it and said, this is brand new. 240 00:17:10.400 --> 00:17:14.079 We've never seen anything like this before, and so yeah, there it 241 00:17:14.119 --> 00:17:17.759 is. They I'm sure they'll be looking for any other parts of this animal, 242 00:17:17.799 --> 00:17:21.200 but so far they do have a skull. Are they still finding a 243 00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:25.640 lot of dinosaurs up in Montana? They are, Yeah, Montana, Wyoming, 244 00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:32.039 California is a hotbed of discovery of dinosaurs and fossils and whatnot around. 245 00:17:32.039 --> 00:17:36.039 You know, You've got stuff around the Labrett Harpeads and elsewhere in the state 246 00:17:36.119 --> 00:17:41.240 that are yet to be discovered. This you can see this skull, the 247 00:17:41.279 --> 00:17:45.519 skull of this animal that was discovered. You're going to have to go to 248 00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:48.640 Denmark though, to do it. It sits at the Museum of Evolution in 249 00:17:48.759 --> 00:17:56.680 Marabau, Denmark. Why Why Because the scientist who found it is a professional 250 00:17:56.680 --> 00:18:02.640 and paleontologist working under contract with the Museum of Evolution in Marabo. So essentially, 251 00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:07.039 the Museum of Evolution in Marabo, Denmark owns that skull. Okay, 252 00:18:07.119 --> 00:18:10.920 and I'm not going to Denmark for this one, but I'd like to see 253 00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:12.160 it. Do you check it out? Where? Do I google it? 254 00:18:12.200 --> 00:18:17.440 Because I can't remember that name? Big story on abcnews dot Go. Abcnews 255 00:18:17.440 --> 00:18:21.160 dot Co is our website and there is a big picture of it as well 256 00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:25.559 as an artist depiction of what the thing looks like. And it's pretty fascinating. 257 00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:27.599 Okay, perfect, Thank you, Jim Ryan. Yeah, good week, 258 00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:30.000 I have a good weekend. Let's get back to some of the stories 259 00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:33.960 coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. People in La can trade 260 00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:38.240 in their illegal fireworks this weekend. The LAPD is encouraging folks to go to 261 00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:42.720 professional fireworks or drone shows this Fourth of July holiday. Chief Dominic Choice says 262 00:18:42.759 --> 00:18:47.960 he understands there's a tradition of lighting off one's own supply. However, in 263 00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:52.359 the city of Los Angeles, they are illegal and they have a significant impact 264 00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:56.400 on certain parts of our community. This Saturday at Brand Park in Mission Hills 265 00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:59.480 from nine to noon, illegal fireworks can be traded in for gift cards and 266 00:18:59.519 --> 00:19:03.200 event tech. It's anonymous with no questions asked. Michael Monks KFI News accord 267 00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:07.200 in LA has ordered a judge from Orange County to stand trial for shooting his 268 00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:12.359 wife in the chest during a drunken argument. Prosecutors allege Jeffrey Ferguson shot his 269 00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:18.279 wife in August, then admitted to it in text messages and slurred comments caught 270 00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:22.640 on bodycam video. Ferguson lawyers say the shooting was an accident. The judge 271 00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:29.079 yesterday ordered the trial court resumes next month. The DOJ could request the Adelanto 272 00:19:29.240 --> 00:19:33.799 Detention Center in the High Desert start taking in illegal immigrants again. Around eighty 273 00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:37.640 five million dollars is currently being spent to house five people at the facility. 274 00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:41.440 Congressman Jay Olbernulty says the facility was barred from taking in immigrants because of a 275 00:19:41.519 --> 00:19:48.039 lawsuit filed in twenty twenty over COVID concerns. The President ended the official state 276 00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:52.720 of emergency for COVID over a year ago, and it's completely nonsensical that we 277 00:19:52.839 --> 00:19:56.920 haven't been able to get that facility back online. The facility has four courtrooms 278 00:19:56.920 --> 00:20:00.519 on it to hear asylum cases. The DOJ is expected file court papers next 279 00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:06.839 month requesting the center be reopened. Like Charlie k if I Knews, greeting 280 00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:11.680 through these things quite top guys might happy hold slip card. Yes you know 281 00:20:11.799 --> 00:20:18.960 that that's from the Haunted Mansion. Disneyland's Haunted Mansion has been closed for refurbishment 282 00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:25.480 since January. Disney says it's going to be open again in time for Halloween 283 00:20:25.599 --> 00:20:30.839 time. Crews have been wrapping up work on the extended refurbishment that includes an 284 00:20:30.920 --> 00:20:36.519 accessibility elevator for wheelchair users, a new retail shop at the attraction's exit, 285 00:20:36.680 --> 00:20:40.160 like most of the big rides have. Park officials say the mansion's dining room 286 00:20:40.200 --> 00:20:45.960 scene is also going to feature a new ghoulish gingerbread house. And that's just 287 00:20:45.039 --> 00:20:49.079 one of the things happening at Disneyland. They did put out a big release 288 00:20:49.119 --> 00:20:52.960 of what's coming up for Halloween Time. I know, we just started summer, 289 00:20:52.359 --> 00:20:56.839 but Disney likes to do things up big and they get started early. 290 00:20:56.000 --> 00:21:02.039 So Halloween Time is coming to Disneyland starting in August, and they're going to 291 00:21:02.119 --> 00:21:07.680 have lots and lots and lots of things to do and see. So I 292 00:21:07.799 --> 00:21:11.039 know that Nick Polly Okanie isn't here right now. You know, Halloween's his 293 00:21:11.480 --> 00:21:14.799 favorite time of year, so he's excited about this. But it starts August 294 00:21:14.880 --> 00:21:18.079 twenty third, runs through October thirty first, So they're going to have, 295 00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:21.240 of course the reopening of the Haunted Mansion, which is going to be very 296 00:21:21.319 --> 00:21:26.480 cool, and then they'll have the overlay, I believe for Christmas time at 297 00:21:26.519 --> 00:21:32.279 that the Nightmare Before Christmas overlay, and there also are going to have like 298 00:21:32.640 --> 00:21:36.359 new outfits for the characters, and they're going to have some new family fun 299 00:21:36.559 --> 00:21:41.839 entertainment. And then Disneyland has done such an amazing job with their fireworks shows. 300 00:21:41.880 --> 00:21:45.240 They're not just fireworks. They call them Nighttime spectaculars now because they have 301 00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:52.680 the fireworks, but then they also throw these projections onto Sleeping Beauty's Castle and 302 00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:56.640 the it's a small world and along Main Street, so it's just like this 303 00:21:56.880 --> 00:22:02.319 total surround experience. It's a three sixty experience. So that's happening. And 304 00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:07.480 then if you are a big Ugie Boogie Bash fan, or if you haven't 305 00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:10.279 been yet you know that it sells out. You might have tried to get 306 00:22:10.319 --> 00:22:14.519 there. They've got more days I think than ever, and those start in 307 00:22:14.799 --> 00:22:19.559 late August and they go all the way through the through October thirty first, 308 00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:25.680 and they're going to go on sales starting next week. And again, if 309 00:22:25.720 --> 00:22:29.039 you want to go, it does sell out, we'll see if it does 310 00:22:29.119 --> 00:22:33.400 this year. But for Magic keyholders, it starts on June twenty fifth and 311 00:22:33.519 --> 00:22:36.359 twenty sixth, and then for everybody, if you don't have a pass or 312 00:22:36.400 --> 00:22:40.640 anything like that, I'll guess the Magic or the Oogie Boogie Bash tickets are 313 00:22:40.680 --> 00:22:45.440 available starting on June twenty seventh, giving you a heads up because they are 314 00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:48.200 highly sought after and it's a lot of fun and you can do trick or 315 00:22:48.240 --> 00:22:52.200 treating all night around Disney California Adventure Park, so and you know, be 316 00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:55.680 an adult and dressed like a kid and have a great time. The California 317 00:22:55.720 --> 00:23:00.400 Supreme Court has removed a measure from the November ballot that would have made it 318 00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:04.200 harder for state and local governments to raise taxes. The Taxpayer Protection and Government 319 00:23:04.319 --> 00:23:11.200 Accountability Act would have, among other things, allowed voters to approve future taxes 320 00:23:11.319 --> 00:23:15.000 and fees imposed by state and local governments. More than a million people signed 321 00:23:15.039 --> 00:23:18.200 the measure to get that one on the ballot, and the Supreme Court took 322 00:23:18.240 --> 00:23:23.160 it off. Almost all the protesters at Columbia University last month are having charges 323 00:23:23.240 --> 00:23:27.799 against them dropped. The Manhattan DA's office is thirty one of the forty six 324 00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:33.519 people charged with trespassing had those charges dismissed. Prosecutors said the remaining fourteen cases 325 00:23:33.599 --> 00:23:37.319 would be dropped if the people involved don't get arrested within the next six months. 326 00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:42.000 Former NBA shooting guard JJ Reddick has been named the new head coach of 327 00:23:42.079 --> 00:23:47.680 the LA Lakers. It'll be his first coaching job. Reddick has agreed to 328 00:23:47.720 --> 00:23:51.079 a four year deal. The Lakers have seventeen NBA titles, one of the 329 00:23:51.079 --> 00:23:55.400 biggest brand names in world sports, and Lebron James, the top scorer in 330 00:23:55.559 --> 00:23:57.880 league history at six POZHO five. It's handle on the news. It's all 331 00:23:57.960 --> 00:24:02.799 in the family. A whole family is accused of dozens of robberies around southern 332 00:24:02.880 --> 00:24:06.640 California. At ive point fifty. We're going to take a ride with ABC's 333 00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:11.839 Jason Nathanson and Julia Louis Dravis Dreyfus takes flight. It'll make more sense in 334 00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:15.640 just a few minutes. Right now, let's say good morning to the host 335 00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:18.960 of Home on KFI. It's Dean Sharp. Good morning Bean, Good morning 336 00:24:19.000 --> 00:24:25.319 Amy. Okay, So, sometimes you can do stuff yourself. Sometimes it's 337 00:24:25.400 --> 00:24:27.359 not such a great idea, and sometimes you really need to bring in a 338 00:24:27.440 --> 00:24:33.279 specialist. That is very very true. This weekend, we are talking about 339 00:24:33.480 --> 00:24:40.920 specialty vendors, our specialty venders. I get so many requests on a weekly 340 00:24:41.039 --> 00:24:47.200 basis. Sometimes who do you and Tina turn to to get this stuff that 341 00:24:47.440 --> 00:24:51.160 you always come up with? So this is Dean Sharp approved, it is, 342 00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:53.160 this is our list. This is our list of vendors. It's going 343 00:24:53.240 --> 00:24:59.559 to be a very very kind of fun, so cal centric show this weekend. 344 00:24:59.599 --> 00:25:02.359 Even though we've got listeners from all over the country, they're just going 345 00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:06.279 to have to Grin and Barrett because we're talking about all of our local favorites 346 00:25:06.720 --> 00:25:11.400 that we go to for various things, but specialized things, great great vendors 347 00:25:11.519 --> 00:25:15.839 all over southern California, and we're going to be celebrating them this weekend. 348 00:25:15.400 --> 00:25:19.160 Okay, So, do you want to give us a couple of highlights? 349 00:25:21.079 --> 00:25:25.000 Sure? I'll give you one of my favorites when it comes to doing a 350 00:25:25.119 --> 00:25:29.240 period home. I think you would really appreciate this. A period home meaning 351 00:25:29.319 --> 00:25:33.279 that we're trying to get some old vintage stuff in play, at least that 352 00:25:33.519 --> 00:25:41.319 look. Pasadena Architectural Salvage. Pasadena Architectural Salvage. They're on Foothill, they're 353 00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:45.519 on East Pasaden, East Pasadena. They've been out there forever in a day. 354 00:25:45.799 --> 00:25:48.160 And Pasadena is a good place to have it because they got a lot 355 00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:52.720 of a lot of old, old historic homes there exactly, and that's why 356 00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:56.680 they're based there, because this is what they do, what a unique business 357 00:25:56.839 --> 00:26:00.559 right, and it's always been fantastic. Whenever they get win that there is 358 00:26:00.839 --> 00:26:07.599 a century home, something that's one hundred years plus that is being major remodeled 359 00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:11.920 or maybe torn down or a major renovation, they want to get in there 360 00:26:12.000 --> 00:26:17.400 and they want all the hinges, all the hardware, all the door handles, 361 00:26:17.440 --> 00:26:25.599 all the accessories, anything worth taking away from that place that the owners 362 00:26:25.640 --> 00:26:29.359 are not going to reuse or what have you. They will hang on to 363 00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:33.680 it, recondition it when necessary, and then sell it at their location on 364 00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:40.559 Foothill boulevards. So I have a question for you bits and pieces, because 365 00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:44.519 I've been to the replacement hardware stores. They have them all over in Portland 366 00:26:44.559 --> 00:26:48.319 because they have a lot of old houses there too. Is it like you 367 00:26:48.400 --> 00:26:53.720 can go in and get a hinge or a door knob or is it bigger 368 00:26:53.799 --> 00:26:59.839 things or it's all of it, all of it? So yeah, So 369 00:27:00.799 --> 00:27:06.240 I'll call my buddy over there and we'll I'll say, heykay, we just 370 00:27:06.440 --> 00:27:11.279 we're redoing this one hundred and twenty year old craftsman home. It's got a 371 00:27:11.519 --> 00:27:15.640 tub, one hundred and twenty year old cast iron tub in it, but 372 00:27:15.880 --> 00:27:19.279 this one is all messed up and I need a new one. I need 373 00:27:19.359 --> 00:27:23.680 a new one hundred and twenty year old tub. And they're like, all 374 00:27:23.759 --> 00:27:27.039 right, we gotoy. Let me check what color do you need? Oh? 375 00:27:27.160 --> 00:27:30.920 I don't know. Baby blue would be nice, pink would be great, 376 00:27:30.079 --> 00:27:33.640 but off white is fine too. They're like, all right, we 377 00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:34.839 got like eight of them in here right now. You got to come down 378 00:27:34.880 --> 00:27:38.880 and just see what you like. Okay. So that's the kind of place 379 00:27:40.119 --> 00:27:44.720 that this is. They are just just fantastic people to work with too. 380 00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:48.480 I love that, and they probably have fun because it's all little treasure hunts 381 00:27:48.519 --> 00:27:52.079 for them and for customers, then in return give us a couple more. 382 00:27:53.079 --> 00:27:57.440 Okay, so here's not a vintage one if you live in Well, I 383 00:27:57.480 --> 00:28:00.240 would say, if you live anywhere in southern California, this is worth the 384 00:28:00.279 --> 00:28:07.240 trip down, but definitely if you live in oc light Styles. Light Styles 385 00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:12.119 is a lighting store, okay, And yet I hesitate to just call it 386 00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:15.480 that, because yeah, you can just go in and oh they have lovely 387 00:28:15.599 --> 00:28:21.200 lighting fixtures, and oh you can buy replacement bulbs here especially. They have 388 00:28:21.279 --> 00:28:26.359 two locations, one in Santa Ana, one in Coasta Mesa down by the 389 00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:32.200 well down on. Okay, I'm blanking out now, but anyway, in 390 00:28:32.359 --> 00:28:38.160 Coasta Mesa, down near Newport. And here's what I love about light Styles. 391 00:28:38.559 --> 00:28:44.680 Light Styles in the back room, okay, they have an entire staff 392 00:28:44.880 --> 00:28:51.079 of lighting designers. This is a lamp store essentially that you can go to 393 00:28:51.759 --> 00:28:55.920 and have a serious conversation, not just about oh I would like to buy 394 00:28:56.000 --> 00:28:59.759 this or that, but how do I light my home? In fact, 395 00:28:59.799 --> 00:29:03.200 if you could take a set of prints for your home and go down there, 396 00:29:03.400 --> 00:29:08.720 or photographs of a particular room and get professional, I mean full on 397 00:29:10.039 --> 00:29:15.759 professional lighting design advice, about how to light this room properly. And you 398 00:29:15.839 --> 00:29:19.680 know what, that is just so few and far between these days. They 399 00:29:19.759 --> 00:29:27.359 are an intensely amazing resource. They understand all things lighting, color correction, 400 00:29:29.000 --> 00:29:33.480 dimming, all of it. And they're just the just they're the best. 401 00:29:33.599 --> 00:29:36.279 They're just the best. Okay. And then here's another one. I always 402 00:29:36.279 --> 00:29:38.799 I love like the big pots and fountains and stuff that people are putting in 403 00:29:38.880 --> 00:29:42.920 their house, in and around their houses. What's a good one for that? 404 00:29:45.200 --> 00:29:48.559 Oh, receided Discount Pottery and Fountains. Just one of the most amazing 405 00:29:48.680 --> 00:29:52.160 places in southern California. And again, never discount in its name. That 406 00:29:52.400 --> 00:29:57.279 makes me like it. It does. That's one of the reasons I haven't 407 00:29:57.319 --> 00:30:00.519 been able to get them to be a sponsor on the show, by the 408 00:30:00.559 --> 00:30:06.279 way. But the point is, these guys are amazing fountains. This is 409 00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:11.880 just it's on receipta boulevard in the valley and you walk in and what you're 410 00:30:11.920 --> 00:30:15.400 going to experience is a thousand I kid you not, I am not exaggerating. 411 00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:22.319 A thousand fountains of every shape and size, all running, all working. 412 00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:27.559 You'll walk underneath these arched water fountains of dolphins shooting water across the room. 413 00:30:27.920 --> 00:30:32.039 I mean, it is a fountain playland. And so when it comes 414 00:30:32.119 --> 00:30:34.559 to oh I need a f I need an Italian wall fountain. In fact, 415 00:30:34.839 --> 00:30:38.680 I'm going to say that we came up with a fountain for Robin our 416 00:30:38.759 --> 00:30:45.160 program. Dur At, the boss from Recita discount fountains and pottery, and 417 00:30:45.680 --> 00:30:49.559 it is just an amazing place. They have pottery, yes, but man, 418 00:30:49.960 --> 00:30:53.359 when it comes to fountains, if you're looking for any kind whatsoever, 419 00:30:53.519 --> 00:30:57.400 you have to start there. I love a good water feature, Okay, 420 00:30:57.480 --> 00:31:03.079 And you're going to be featuring lots more of these stores and shops that are 421 00:31:03.160 --> 00:31:07.400 your go to Dean Sharp, tested and approved, and that's happening this weekend 422 00:31:07.640 --> 00:31:11.599 on Home with Dean Sharp right here on KFI six to eight am Saturday and 423 00:31:11.960 --> 00:31:15.680 nine to noon on Sunday.

The union 435 00:31:56.400 --> 00:32:00.079 says Warehouses and Commerce and Riverside are being shut down because the company wants to 436 00:32:00.119 --> 00:32:05.920 cut pay and benefits for tenured employees.

Smartin Finals 442 00:32:22.119 --> 00:32:27.279 said yesterday the union isn't being truthful and their new facility would create about one 443 00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:31.240 thousand new jobs. Chris Adler KFI News and the FAA is investigating how a 444 00:32:31.319 --> 00:32:37.720 Southwest Airlines flight dropped to about just over five hundred feet as it approached Oklahoma 445 00:32:37.799 --> 00:32:42.440 City.

A USC student accused 452 00:33:10.359 --> 00:33:15.720 of fatally stabbing a homeless man on Greek Rowe who was breaking into his car 453 00:33:15.039 --> 00:33:20.960 won't face any charges. La County District Attorney George Gascone says the nineteen year 454 00:33:20.960 --> 00:33:23.079 old student was driven by a genuine fear for his life in the lives of 455 00:33:23.119 --> 00:33:27.440 others.

We're just minutes away from Handle. On the news this 468 00:34:16.559 --> 00:34:20.719 morning, We're going to find out why Donald Trump will get the last word 469 00:34:20.800 --> 00:34:23.760 at next week's debate. Right now, let's say good morning to ABC's Jason 470 00:34:24.119 --> 00:34:29.280 Nathanson. So, Jason, Hollywood finally had a big weekend with Inside Out 471 00:34:29.320 --> 00:34:34.960 two. I think you you said that Hollywood had projected about maybe one hundred 472 00:34:34.960 --> 00:34:37.440 million, but it took in one hundred and fifty five million, So that's 473 00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:40.000 kind of cool. Yeah, expectations were actually eighty to ninety million, and 474 00:34:40.119 --> 00:34:43.719 I thought it had a chance of hitting one hundred million, but one hundred 475 00:34:43.719 --> 00:34:47.320 and fifty five million was definitely not in the cards. Just to kind of 476 00:34:47.760 --> 00:34:52.639 just goes to show just how weird this year has been, how unreliable tracking 477 00:34:52.880 --> 00:34:55.599 is right now, and we just really don't know what's going to happen. 478 00:34:55.639 --> 00:35:00.440 And usually during the summer, when there is a big movie like or this 479 00:35:00.559 --> 00:35:04.800 has been historically, there's something to follow it up. There's going to be 480 00:35:04.840 --> 00:35:08.719 another one. Every weekend is another big one. But that's not the case 481 00:35:08.760 --> 00:35:15.840 this year unfortunately, just because of the strike, in production delays and things 482 00:35:15.960 --> 00:35:20.000 like that, we just don't have the inventory we once did, so we 483 00:35:20.119 --> 00:35:22.119 have to make do. Although Inside Out two is going to roll the roost 484 00:35:22.159 --> 00:35:27.039 again this weekend. There are a few things out there that are new that 485 00:35:27.159 --> 00:35:30.400 you can go watch, and one of them is The Bike Riders, which 486 00:35:30.559 --> 00:35:34.280 if you've gone to the movies anytime in the last couple of months, I 487 00:35:34.320 --> 00:35:37.280 don't know about you, but I've seen this trailer every single time I've gone 488 00:35:37.320 --> 00:35:38.519 to the movies. Oh yeah, in the last three months. I'm sick 489 00:35:38.559 --> 00:35:43.840 of this trailer and I'm glad it's no longer going to be shown ahead of 490 00:35:43.920 --> 00:35:46.800 the movies because I've seen it too many times. The Bike Riders is a 491 00:35:47.000 --> 00:35:53.519 story about a Midwestern motorcycle gang called the Vandals in the nineteen sixties. It 492 00:35:53.679 --> 00:36:00.360 is very loosely based on a true story, and it is about a guy 493 00:36:00.440 --> 00:36:05.519 named Benny who joins the gang, played by Austin Butler, the guy who 494 00:36:05.559 --> 00:36:09.800 played all this, Yes, Jody Comer who plays his wife, who is 495 00:36:10.039 --> 00:36:14.840 absolutely fantastic in this, and you have Tom Hardy who plays Johnny, who's 496 00:36:14.880 --> 00:36:17.239 the leader of the gang, and when the whole thing starts out and again 497 00:36:17.360 --> 00:36:21.639 going into this, I'd seen the trailer too many times. But also I'm 498 00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:27.320 not nostalgic or romantic for this kind of setting for the sixties motorcycle clubs, 499 00:36:27.920 --> 00:36:34.199 like that's not really my thing. Like I'm more romanticized probably mobster movies and 500 00:36:34.239 --> 00:36:37.159 things like that. And when this started, I actually got a good fella's 501 00:36:37.239 --> 00:36:44.000 feeling to it because it's the sixties, because it's these two younger people going 502 00:36:44.119 --> 00:36:49.679 into this underworld type thing and exploring it, and it's well directed in the 503 00:36:49.719 --> 00:36:52.880 acting is really good. I kind of got this goodfella's thing, and I 504 00:36:53.239 --> 00:36:57.800 was excited for that because it kind of won me over. But then it 505 00:36:57.920 --> 00:37:01.159 just didn't really go anywhere with the story. You have great performances here by 506 00:37:01.199 --> 00:37:06.639 everybody involved. I think everybody's doing a really strong job, especially Jody Comer, 507 00:37:07.519 --> 00:37:12.679 who is just she's great and I hope they find some kind of movie 508 00:37:12.800 --> 00:37:16.679 vehicle for her in the future because she is doing Oscar caliber stuff. But 509 00:37:16.920 --> 00:37:21.480 overall, this story just didn't really go anywhere for me. I didn't really 510 00:37:21.519 --> 00:37:25.760 find any emotion of why these guys are so drawn to this motorcycle gang lifestyle 511 00:37:27.639 --> 00:37:30.880 and what they love about it so much. Michael Shannon is in this for 512 00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:34.719 like two seconds and completely wasted, which if you're wasting Michael Shannon, that's 513 00:37:34.840 --> 00:37:39.480 not a great sign. But despite its flaws. The film was ultimately watchable, 514 00:37:40.280 --> 00:37:44.119 just hollow for me. So this was a six point eight out of 515 00:37:44.199 --> 00:37:47.000 ten. That's not a great score on the Jaysonometer. It's not okay, 516 00:37:47.159 --> 00:37:52.840 So what about the it's not a follow up, it's because it's completely different. 517 00:37:52.880 --> 00:37:58.320 But Emma Stone's got a new movie and it's you know, her latest 518 00:37:58.480 --> 00:38:02.360 since Poor Things, which was a freakishly good movie. Yes, a freaky, 519 00:38:02.639 --> 00:38:06.920 freaky movie in a freaky movie and a weird movie. And this is 520 00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:10.199 the latest from her and director Yorgos Lanthemos who did Poor Things and wrote that, 521 00:38:12.239 --> 00:38:15.480 and this is there. Yeah, you're correct, it's not a follow 522 00:38:15.599 --> 00:38:17.400 up. This is not a sequel. It's just the next movie that they 523 00:38:17.519 --> 00:38:21.679 made together, which they they were making. Is it gonna be weird? 524 00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:27.360 Well, okay, so Poor Things was probably of the Yorgos Lanthemois movies a 525 00:38:27.400 --> 00:38:31.320 little more accessible. His movies do tend towards the weird and strange, and 526 00:38:31.880 --> 00:38:38.239 his previous movies were even weirder. Poor Things actually was was his most crowd 527 00:38:38.320 --> 00:38:42.239 one of his most crowd pleasing. And that's you know, saying something because 528 00:38:42.239 --> 00:38:45.159 that was still a very weird movie. So I think people who saw that 529 00:38:45.559 --> 00:38:51.280 are gonna go see this one and expect to maybe similar storyline or something like 530 00:38:51.360 --> 00:38:57.199 that, and be very very surprised, because this is even weirder, one 531 00:38:57.280 --> 00:39:01.159 of the weirder movies that he's ever made. And I'll forgive you for watching 532 00:39:01.199 --> 00:39:05.079 the trailer and thinking it's more accessible. You got em a stone, she's 533 00:39:05.199 --> 00:39:08.880 dancing around, it's in modern day. She's driving a sports car around really 534 00:39:08.960 --> 00:39:13.360 fast, and you know, it looks like fun. But this is a 535 00:39:14.000 --> 00:39:17.079 deeply strange movie. I don't want to get into too much of the plot 536 00:39:17.159 --> 00:39:22.000 and everything, because it's the kind of thing that I think you're just best 537 00:39:22.159 --> 00:39:24.400 seeing without knowing too much going in, kind of like Poor Things. I 538 00:39:24.440 --> 00:39:30.239 didn't know anything about it, sure, and so I was pleasantly surprised by 539 00:39:30.320 --> 00:39:34.960 it in a weird way. Sure. I just think with that film and 540 00:39:35.280 --> 00:39:37.880 this one as well, you just have to know going in expecting A it's 541 00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:42.480 going to be very very adult, and B you're about to see something that 542 00:39:42.559 --> 00:39:45.719 you've not never really seen before and you don't know where it's going and it's 543 00:39:45.719 --> 00:39:51.440 surprising, which I like you have. William Dafoe is also back, who 544 00:39:51.559 --> 00:39:52.679 was in Poor Things as well, and fantastic in that, and I think 545 00:39:52.719 --> 00:39:57.400 he's fantastic in this. I don't think em Astone is gonna win any Oscars 546 00:39:57.440 --> 00:39:59.920 for this one. Not to say that she's bad or anything like that. 547 00:40:00.239 --> 00:40:05.039 I just think, giving the nature of it and everything, but she's good. 548 00:40:05.679 --> 00:40:08.400 And Jesse Plemons also stars in this as well, who I really like, 549 00:40:09.079 --> 00:40:15.159 although doesn't really excite me too much in this again weird, disturbed, 550 00:40:15.559 --> 00:40:21.920 uncomfortable. I want to be in people's cars as they're driving home discussing this 551 00:40:22.079 --> 00:40:27.039 film, because that's going to be a very interesting place to be, or 552 00:40:27.119 --> 00:40:30.320 maybe just hanging outside a theater, you know, like at the Grove and 553 00:40:30.400 --> 00:40:35.559 then listening as they eat dinner afterwards, something like that they can't eat afterwards, 554 00:40:35.679 --> 00:40:37.199 if they can eat afterwards. Seven point seven out of ten for me, 555 00:40:37.760 --> 00:40:43.519 I liked the weirdness, but it is not going to be for everybody. 556 00:40:43.599 --> 00:40:45.079 And it is two hours and forty five minutes long. Oh my, 557 00:40:45.400 --> 00:40:50.599 okay that thank you for that warning. Appreciate it all right, Jason Nathanson, 558 00:40:50.920 --> 00:40:53.400 thank you so much.
