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 --> 00:00:10.679
demand on the iHeartRadio app. This
is the first full day of spring.

3
00:00:10.720 --> 00:00:15.320
Spring officially arrived last night at eight
o'clock. And more importantly, it's baseball

4
00:00:15.359 --> 00:00:19.879
season. The Dodgers and Padres are
playing right now in Seoul, South Korea.

5
00:00:20.039 --> 00:00:23.000
Now we're going to do a replay
of the game on our sister station,

6
00:00:23.440 --> 00:00:28.039
AM five seventy at noon, or
you can also listen to the game

7
00:00:28.399 --> 00:00:31.920
on the iHeartRadio app. I'm not
going to tell you what the score is.

8
00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:37.079
It's a good game. So far. Nine hundred and seventy seven million

9
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:39.320
dollars is on the line Friday night. I mean, you could just be

10
00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:42.840
a billionaire, which is six,
you know, if you could just get

11
00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:47.640
all six numbers, since nobody matched
all six from last night to mega millions

12
00:00:47.679 --> 00:00:49.920
drawing. Oh and if you don't
want to wait till Friday, Powerball has

13
00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:53.320
a drawing tonight. It's worth a
me easily, six hundred eighty seven million

14
00:00:53.359 --> 00:00:57.439
dollars. That kind of money is
just mind boggling, But I would like

15
00:00:57.479 --> 00:01:00.880
to be boggled by it. That
would be great. Here's what's ahead,

16
00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:04.359
on Wake Up Called. Police in
Soul, South Korea are investigating an alleged

17
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:10.920
bomb threat targeting shohe Otani during the
MLB season opener between the Dodgers and Padres.

18
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:14.760
The La Times says the threat is
not credible, No bombs were found,

19
00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:18.280
and the person thought to have made
the threat as a history of making

20
00:01:18.439 --> 00:01:23.599
false claims. Negotiations to reach a
temporary ceasefire in the war between Israel and

21
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:27.439
Hamas continue. The deal on the
table would stop the fighting in exchange for

22
00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:33.239
the release of hostages and an increase
in humanitarian aid into Gaza, which the

23
00:01:33.359 --> 00:01:37.319
UN has warned is on the brink
of famine. And Albertson's in San Diego

24
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:42.200
has taken steps to stop retail threat
theft at its store. It has been

25
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:45.599
fenced off. Yep, they fenced
the whole store off and now there are

26
00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:51.159
two entrance gates and one exit gate
on the other side of the store where

27
00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:55.040
you have to scan your receipt and
able to be let out of the gate.

28
00:01:55.959 --> 00:02:00.280
Locked in at Albertson's Great at six
oh five, It's handled on the

29
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:04.000
news. Looks like lawmakers are actually
doing their jobs and have passed a deal

30
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:07.719
to fund the rest of the US
government. Let's get started with some of

31
00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:10.800
the stories coming out of the KFI
twenty four hour newsroom. A union representing

32
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:16.960
DWP workers in La says double dipping
by city workers threatens the solvency of the

33
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:23.319
Water and Power employees retirement system.
The union says some workers are getting pensions

34
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:28.319
and also taking high paying salaries at
the Department of Water and Power. IBW

35
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:32.360
Local eighteen leader Gus coronas La is
violating the city charter. We've asked the

36
00:02:32.520 --> 00:02:39.120
city attorney to cease and desist on
allowing this practice to continue. We haven't

37
00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:46.080
heard back yet. We've also filed
the unfairlyer practice charge. The city Attorney's

38
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:50.120
office says a response will be issued
in writing. A man has been killed

39
00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:53.960
in a shooting involving inn La County
Sheriff's deputy in Long Beach. Video from

40
00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:57.479
last night shows the back of a
red muscle car on the hood of a

41
00:02:57.560 --> 00:03:01.360
Lakewood Sheriff's Deputy patrol car. Tenant
Michael Gomez says the driver of the nineteen

42
00:03:01.479 --> 00:03:07.199
seventies Pontiac apparently put his car in
reverse, sped backwards, and crashed as

43
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:10.439
they were giving him commands. To
exit the vehicle. He exited the vehicle

44
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:15.560
with a knife in hand, at
which point ultimately he charged towards deputies.

45
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:17.439
That's when he was shot. The
deputy in the crash patrol car was hurt

46
00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:22.439
and taken to the hospital. LA
City and County firefighters have been helping with

47
00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:25.080
the search for a missing swimmer off
Dockweler Beach should They have been out there

48
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:30.919
since last night. Two other possible
swimmers were seen on the shore. Former

49
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:35.680
President Trump has won the Republican primaries
in Arizona, Florida, Illinois, Kansas,

50
00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:40.520
and Ohio. President Biden won the
Democratic primaries except for Florida. Democrats

51
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:45.879
canceled their primary and just gave the
states two hundred and twenty four delegates to

52
00:03:45.919 --> 00:03:50.039
Biden. A former car dealer backed
by former President Trump, I has won

53
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:53.560
the Republican Senate primary in Ohio.
Say we have, but he said that

54
00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:55.919
you were tied to Trump. Let
me just say something. I wear with

55
00:03:57.159 --> 00:04:00.840
honor my endorsement of President President Trump. I wear that with a badge of

56
00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:06.560
honor. Bernie Moreno will now run
against Democratic Senator Shared Brown in November.

57
00:04:06.919 --> 00:04:14.039
Brown is running for a fourth term
in a state Trump won twice. Vietnam's

58
00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:17.600
state news agency says the president has
resigned, which is it says, is

59
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:24.800
raising questions over the direction of Vietnam's
fast growing economy. We'll take a closer

60
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:29.560
look at that developing story, and
now let's turn our attention to ABC's Jim

61
00:04:29.639 --> 00:04:33.079
Ryan. So, Jim, we
we thought this one was settled, but

62
00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:40.560
my things changed quickly. And of
course we're talking about the Texas immigration law.

63
00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:46.240
So tell us what happened yesterday and
then what happened last night. Well,

64
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:49.839
yeah, the Supreme Court yesterday essentially
cleared the way for enforcement of SB

65
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:56.199
four to begin. And again what
s before does It creates a state misdemeanor,

66
00:04:56.199 --> 00:05:00.000
a state misdemeanor here in Texas,
making it illegal to the border between

67
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.439
the checkpoints. There hadn't been a
state law before. It was strictly a

68
00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:08.240
federal law you were breaking by coming
into the country illegally. So the creation

69
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:14.920
of this misdemeanor makes every city police
officer, sheriff's deputy essentially a Customs and

70
00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:18.639
Border Patrol agent taking people into custody
if they feel these people have came have

71
00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:23.360
come into the country illegally. So
for a short time, yesterday, after

72
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:25.959
the Supreme Court said yeah, you
go ahead and enforce it if you want.

73
00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:30.319
Then it was in effect. Now
was anybody arrested under s before,

74
00:05:30.959 --> 00:05:34.879
no talent. But within a few
hours last night, then the Fifth Now

75
00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:38.879
what the Supreme Court doe. It
didn't say you must enforce the law.

76
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:42.000
It didn't say that's the law of
Texas. Now, what it did was

77
00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:44.920
say, Okay, we're going to
leave this down to the Fifth US Circuit

78
00:05:44.920 --> 00:05:47.759
Court of Appeals, and in the
meantime, we're going to clear the way

79
00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:51.800
for enforcement of S before. Well, the Fifth Circuit last night said hold

80
00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:55.600
on, we're going to tap the
brakes again. We're going to stop this

81
00:05:56.079 --> 00:06:00.879
enforcement and hold a hearing on the
matter later today. So that's where we

82
00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:04.279
are right now. That's before has
been blocked. City police can't legally take

83
00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:08.360
people in the custody if they think
they're in the country illegally, and the

84
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:12.160
Fifth US Circuit Court of Appeals plans
to hold a hearing later today. Amy,

85
00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:15.600
Okay, So here's my question,
and I'm relying on you because you're

86
00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:19.759
the smart one here. Okay,
So the Supreme Court said, okay,

87
00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:25.920
you can move forward. I thought
the Supreme Court was the last you know,

88
00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:29.040
the final say, the last line
of defense. Well, all it

89
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:31.720
did, all I was doing was
saying it was it was allowing enforcement while

90
00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:36.040
the Fifth Circuit considered this. The
Fifth Circuit still has purview over what happens

91
00:06:36.040 --> 00:06:41.120
here in Texas. That's if you
appeal far enough out of Texas, then

92
00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:44.040
you end up in New Orleans at
the Fifth Circuit and then up to the

93
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:48.079
US Supreme Court. So, no, didn't it didn't issue a firm ruling.

94
00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:51.920
The Supreme Court didn't. All it
said was Fifth Circuit, you guys

95
00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:56.920
stand in New Orleans, you handle
it, and in the meantime, yeah,

96
00:06:57.000 --> 00:07:00.680
go ahead and enforce that law if
you want. Okay. So it's

97
00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:05.639
now on hold again while the Fifth
Circuit kind of makes their decision. You

98
00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:10.519
got it, okay, And then
if they decide to block it, then

99
00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:13.319
it could still end up back at
the Supreme Court, and then the Supreme

100
00:07:13.360 --> 00:07:15.720
Court would have to issue a ruling
if they decided to take it up or

101
00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:20.120
if the if the Appeals Court decides
to let it go forward, it'll end

102
00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:23.279
up back at the Supreme Court.
I think either way, it's going to

103
00:07:23.399 --> 00:07:26.519
end up back in the hands of
the Supreme Court. So this is just

104
00:07:26.560 --> 00:07:30.600
another waypoint in this entire legal process
that started in December when kevinor Greg Gabbott

105
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:34.720
signed this law into a fact.
You know, it's been back and forth.

106
00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:39.120
It's been upheld, it's been declined, it's been put on hold.

107
00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:42.519
You know, it's been back and
forth. Somebody described it as kind of

108
00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:46.680
like a pickleball match. Used to
be tennis, now it's pickleball or racketball.

109
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:50.319
Okay, football, that doesn't work, never mind, So god,

110
00:07:50.360 --> 00:07:56.160
I haven't played racketball in the years. Okay. So under the law,

111
00:07:57.319 --> 00:08:03.199
they could stop people if they think
they're in illegally. So would they mainly

112
00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:07.800
be focusing at the actual border and
stopping people from coming across, or just

113
00:08:07.839 --> 00:08:09.279
like finding somebody in a Walmart parking
lot and say, hey, you don't

114
00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:13.279
look great. No the former,
and in fact, I think that's the

115
00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:20.040
advice that most law enforcers, police
sheriff's deputies are being given, is that

116
00:08:20.399 --> 00:08:24.199
you know, you don't pull over
somebody in San Antonio and just because you

117
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:26.519
think they're in the country illegally take
them into custody for questioning. Don't do

118
00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:31.319
that. But if you are a
police officer, in Eagle Past, Texas,

119
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:35.000
or in Brownsville or Laredo, in
some El Paso right there on the

120
00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:39.120
border, and you see somebody coming
across between the checkpoints, then you can

121
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:43.159
take them into custody. But again, we're talking about a misdemeanor, and

122
00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:46.399
the jails along the border, as
everywhere else in the country, are pretty

123
00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:50.720
well packed. So it's up to
the discretion of that officer to decide whether

124
00:08:52.000 --> 00:08:56.679
they're going to take this person into
custody on this misdemeanor and add someone else

125
00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:01.600
into the jail. Right. So
I sort of suspect that even if the

126
00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:03.799
sheriffs are out there saying, yeah, we support this, this is great,

127
00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:09.360
we need to secure the border,
that I suspect they're telling their deputies,

128
00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:11.399
look, we don't have room for
these people just to go along.

129
00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:15.919
Let's do the thing and be done
with it. So, I mean,

130
00:09:15.960 --> 00:09:20.279
it's very political. It's political obviously, it's a fight between the Republican governor

131
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:24.039
of Texas and the Democratic president of
the United States. Okay, and then

132
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:26.559
would another option, because you're saying
that the jails are already full, and

133
00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:30.480
it sounds like the way you explain
it, it could just end up being

134
00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:33.639
another form of catch and release,
like, huh, here we got you.

135
00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:35.320
We're arresting you. Here's a ticket. Well, we don't have room

136
00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:39.679
for you in the prison. So
is another option just to turn them around

137
00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:41.919
at the border and say nope,
you can't come across, go back.

138
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:48.679
Yeah, I think that's an option
there too. But carrying through it's a

139
00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:50.919
legal proceeding. Let's say you do
arrest somebody, you take them into custody.

140
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:54.480
It's then up to a judge,
not an immigration judge, a federal

141
00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:58.799
judge, but a state district judge
to say I'm going to deport you.

142
00:10:00.679 --> 00:10:03.720
They are taking out a whole new
responsibility as well. So not only is

143
00:10:03.759 --> 00:10:11.320
a local constable or a local police
officer taking on this extra responsibility, state

144
00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:16.440
district judges are as well. Nothing
is easy. I just everything just sounds

145
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:22.399
so convoluted. Hey, do you
know of other cases that are pending along

146
00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:26.360
the same lines as as I know
that Texas passed its own law, But

147
00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:28.799
are other states looking at doing that? Well, I think they're waiting to

148
00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:33.480
see what happens here. You know, New Mexico, Arizona. I think

149
00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:37.360
Arizona would be the most one,
the one most likely to create a statute

150
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:39.799
sort of like the one here,
used this one as a boiler plate,

151
00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:45.960
and put it into place in Arizona, because you know, I think politically

152
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:52.200
that's Arizona is maybe more conservative.
New Mexico has a democratic governor. California

153
00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:54.519
I'm not sure would put something like
this into place at all, probably,

154
00:10:56.080 --> 00:10:58.360
so you know, I think Arizona
might be the place you would next see

155
00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:01.639
a law like that. Okay,
and we will be watching ABC. Jim's

156
00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:05.600
Ryan. Thank you for sorting out
the pick a ball for us. You

157
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:09.480
will, all right, Let's get
back to some of the stories coming out

158
00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:13.240
of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Irvine Police say a string of thirty

159
00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:18.600
four burglaries in thirty five days includes
at least seven professional burglary crews. That's

160
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:22.240
about one a day on average.
Irvine Police Sergeant Kerry Davies says the burglars

161
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:26.919
often disabled security cameras, and they
typically hit through the backyard, travel up

162
00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:31.120
to the second story window or slider
and gain access that way. They're typically

163
00:11:31.120 --> 00:11:35.840
looking for cash, stewey, and
items of value that they can put in

164
00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:39.080
a backpack. Davy says homeowners can
protect property by installing motion lights around the

165
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:43.440
property, latching windows, locking doors, and closing garages, and keeping valuables

166
00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:48.799
in an anchored safe that cannot be
moved. In Orange County, Corbin Carson

167
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:52.840
KFI News, new unarmed crisis response
teams in LA have begun responding to calls.

168
00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:58.519
LAPD Chief Choi told the Police Commission
yesterday. The program started on March

169
00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:03.399
twelfth, and in its first four
days responded to eighty three calls for service,

170
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:07.960
one welfare checks, seventeen calls from
indition exposure, thirty nine calls for

171
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:11.799
disturbance, eight calls for persons suffering
from mental illness, eighteen calls of other

172
00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:16.759
types that include trespass and dispute choices. Each time, each team of two

173
00:12:16.879 --> 00:12:22.559
includes people with expertise in mental illness
and behavioral health. The pilot program is

174
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:30.000
being tested in Devonshire, Wilshire and
Southeast Divisions. Ev Drivers in Fresno will

175
00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:33.120
have to find other ways to charge
their cars since a bunch of charging stations

176
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:39.000
have been vandalized. Jennifer Clark with
Fresno's Planning and Development Office as a situate,

177
00:12:39.159 --> 00:12:43.000
the stations are expensive to maintain.
Typical cost of a charging station is

178
00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:50.639
anywhere from fifty to six seventy five
thousand dollars. Fresno's parking division manager says

179
00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:56.000
the copper wiring is valuable to thieves. Officials say all the charging stations will

180
00:12:56.039 --> 00:13:01.240
be repaired and working by this summer. Here's something that's not working. Apparently,

181
00:13:01.519 --> 00:13:07.000
it's the reservation system to get a
tea time at city golf courses.

182
00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:11.519
So if you are a golfer and
a producer, Ann and I were talking

183
00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:15.440
about this because her husband likes to
golf at city golf courses and has had

184
00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:20.159
issues booking a tea time. And
if you golf, you may know that

185
00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:24.279
it's just almost impossible to get a
good tea time, especially like on weekends

186
00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:30.600
or you know, at more prime
times. Well, apparently it's because there

187
00:13:30.639 --> 00:13:35.519
are brokers. This just reminds me
of like a Ticketmaster scam brokers who are

188
00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:41.879
charging up to forty dollars as a
booking fee. So apparently they go in

189
00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:46.679
snap up the tea times like right
when they become available, and then they

190
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:52.480
resell them thirty bucks for non peak
hours, forty dollars for a tea time,

191
00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:56.279
and you know some are saying,
you know, we go and play

192
00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:58.639
golf, we can't because the earliest
tea time available is like four thirty in

193
00:13:58.679 --> 00:14:01.879
the after afternoon, and now they
know why. But if you go out

194
00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:05.440
onto the golf courses, the people
who play a lot seem to know about

195
00:14:05.440 --> 00:14:11.840
this little underground system going on.
And then there's also talk that some of

196
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:18.519
the more prominent brokers are Korean and
they're selling mostly to other Koreans, so

197
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:24.279
that brings race and class into the
whole mix. And the brokers are peddling

198
00:14:24.279 --> 00:14:30.000
times at several golf courses including Griffith
Park, Rancho Park, and Hanson Dam.

199
00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:35.320
And the fee is the supposed to
be thirty five dollars per person,

200
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:39.720
but apparently you get to pay more
if you want to get a tea time

201
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:45.559
on these golf courses. Interesting,
but again it seems like there would be

202
00:14:45.600 --> 00:14:48.279
an easy fix to that, like
you know, like at Disneyland, for

203
00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:54.360
example, you making it a reservation
and you have to arrive for the reservation

204
00:14:54.480 --> 00:14:58.480
because it's your reservation. But apparently
they haven't discovered that yet. So we'll

205
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:01.440
be watching that. Come back.
KTLA Tech reporter Rich de Muro will join

206
00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:05.519
us, and if you're traveling,
Rich has some great resources for you to

207
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:09.480
make sure that you go to the
best spots and get good prices, and

208
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:11.639
also you can get poked again.
We'll say you about that coming up.

209
00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:18.159
You're listening to Wake Up Call on
demand from KFI AM six forty. Controversial

210
00:15:18.279 --> 00:15:24.639
La City Councilman Kevin da Leone and
tenant wrights attorney Isabelle Herado appeer headed to

211
00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:28.600
a runoff. The updated vote count
yesterday has Herado leading daily On by about

212
00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:33.679
four hundred votes. The top two
candidates will square off in November. Efforts

213
00:15:33.679 --> 00:15:37.840
continue to get US citizens out of
Haiti. Two rescue flights were supposed to

214
00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:43.039
leave yesterday, but plans fell through. Florida Division of Emergency Management Director Kevin

215
00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:48.240
Guthrie says they got close, but
the situation on the ground is so volatile

216
00:15:48.279 --> 00:15:50.440
because of all the gang violence.
But they're going to keep trying. Taylor

217
00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:56.559
Swift the Era's Tour. Taylor's Version
has quickly become the most streamed music film

218
00:15:56.679 --> 00:16:00.600
on Disney Plus No big surprise there. Disney said the movie had four point

219
00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:06.240
six million views and more than sixteen
million hours of viewing time over the weekend.

220
00:16:06.600 --> 00:16:10.039
It was released just last Thursday at
six so five. It's handle on

221
00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:14.279
the news. The first over the
counter birth control pill is now available.

222
00:16:14.600 --> 00:16:17.720
Right now, let's say good morning
to our tech guy. It's a host

223
00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:22.480
of Rich on Tech on KFI and
KTLAS tech reporter Rich DeMuro Rich, I

224
00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:26.799
would like to poke you now,
and I don't mean that in a weird

225
00:16:26.799 --> 00:16:32.320
way. Now you can the poke
is back on Facebook. Don't ask me

226
00:16:32.399 --> 00:16:36.519
why, but apparently they brought it
back. You can go to Facebook dot

227
00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:40.279
com slash pokes. You can see
a list of your friends and maybe someone's

228
00:16:40.279 --> 00:16:42.480
already poked you. My last poke
is from let's see I thought it was

229
00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:45.879
kind of funny, twenty sixteen,
someone poked me. So it's been a

230
00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:52.080
while. Oh my gosh, So
I forgot that there even was one because

231
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:53.840
it just kind of went away,
and I always thought it was sort of

232
00:16:53.840 --> 00:16:57.000
a weird thing. Anyway, Well, it's just a way to get someone's

233
00:16:57.039 --> 00:17:00.000
attention. And I think in this
day and age, it's so much social

234
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:04.039
media and so many different ways of
connecting with people, and maybe you scroll,

235
00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:07.799
you know. I think the thing
is you scroll through social media so

236
00:17:07.920 --> 00:17:10.839
much. You see your friends,
but maybe you're not interacting with them.

237
00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:12.559
Perhaps, so this is kind of
a fun, just way to get things

238
00:17:12.599 --> 00:17:18.119
started, and they're finding an uptick, especially with gen Z. The younger

239
00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:22.559
folks who had never seen this before, they're finding it really interesting. So

240
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:26.400
I guess that's why Facebook wants to
bring it back new audience. So it's

241
00:17:26.440 --> 00:17:29.680
a way to say hi without actually
communicating with anybody. Yeah, it was

242
00:17:29.759 --> 00:17:33.440
a really weird term. All right, Okay, don't poke your boss.

243
00:17:33.880 --> 00:17:41.400
Yeah, you could get in trouble
for that. So we've got Apple might

244
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:47.599
be using Google's AI tech on its
next iPhone instead of having its own.

245
00:17:48.359 --> 00:17:52.720
Yeah, talk about a strange partnership, right, So Apple's pretty much front

246
00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:55.400
of me, is with everyone at
this point. So as Google, all

247
00:17:55.400 --> 00:17:57.960
these tech companies because they need each
other, but they don't want each other

248
00:17:59.079 --> 00:18:02.119
because they all want their own silo. They all want you to use all

249
00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:07.400
their stuff. And so Apple has
always had this interesting relationship with Google because

250
00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:11.359
they need them because of the search
engine, and they pay them a lot

251
00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:15.160
of money. It's tons of money
that they pay every year to Google to

252
00:18:15.200 --> 00:18:18.920
be the primary search engine on the
iPhone. End users like that on the

253
00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:25.519
iPhone because what's the alternative? Bing
like? Come on? So apparently with

254
00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:29.720
iosa team because Apple wants to get
into AI. They don't have enough of

255
00:18:29.759 --> 00:18:33.240
their own AI to do something just
yet, so it looks like they may

256
00:18:33.359 --> 00:18:37.720
use Google's AI, which is called
Gemini, to power some of these AI

257
00:18:37.799 --> 00:18:41.039
features on the iPhone, you know, generative search, generative images, those

258
00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:45.799
kind of things. This is not
necessarily a done deal, but two major

259
00:18:45.920 --> 00:18:49.839
news organizations are saying this is what's
happening. And according to sources inside Apple

260
00:18:49.880 --> 00:18:55.079
and Google, so we'll see,
it would definitely be strange because Google has

261
00:18:55.119 --> 00:18:59.559
its own platform, Android, so
it'd be weird, okay, And so

262
00:18:59.799 --> 00:19:03.160
is Gemini basically just a different version
of chat GPT? Are they kind of

263
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:07.680
different? Yeah? No, they're
basically yeah, exactly. That's so all

264
00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:11.599
of these things are generative you know, uh, generative AI products. You've

265
00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:15.200
got chat GBT, you've got Claude
AI, you've got the uh oh,

266
00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:21.359
what's the one over in Paris Mistral
uh and then of course you've got Copilot

267
00:19:21.440 --> 00:19:26.200
from Microsoft and you also have Gemini
from Google. So lots of different flavors

268
00:19:26.200 --> 00:19:29.799
of AI out there. And are
they all kind of the same or are

269
00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:33.559
is like chat GPT sort of the
gold standard because it's first? Uh you

270
00:19:33.599 --> 00:19:37.720
know, they all they all have
their pros and cons, and I could

271
00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:41.119
probably do a whole story and I
probably should this weekend on my radio show

272
00:19:41.200 --> 00:19:44.160
because chat GBT is kind of like
the end all you know, it's like

273
00:19:44.200 --> 00:19:47.960
it's the early one. So everyone
uses it, but personally I use Claude

274
00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:52.119
for a lot of data processing and
transcripting and stuff like that. And Gemini

275
00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:56.680
is really good for real time like
that linked up to Google, like it

276
00:19:56.759 --> 00:20:00.400
has that full access to Google,
so it's really good for real time stuff.

277
00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:03.640
Look at that. I inspired you. I'm happy. Yeah, thanks

278
00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:10.279
for the idea. Sure. So
tell me about Glassdoor and it's it's sharing

279
00:20:10.359 --> 00:20:17.200
information. So Glassdoor is this website
that lets people anonymously sort of review where

280
00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:19.599
they work. Right, it's been
a good source of information for people trying

281
00:20:19.640 --> 00:20:23.319
to get the real deal on an
employee, an employer, I should say,

282
00:20:23.440 --> 00:20:27.680
okay, But the problem is they
bought this other company called fish Bowl,

283
00:20:29.279 --> 00:20:33.960
and now apparently they're starting to add
names, like real names to these

284
00:20:33.000 --> 00:20:37.000
reviews that are on the website,
and people are like freaking out because they're

285
00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:38.960
like, why would be Yeah,
I thought, well, yeah, because

286
00:20:38.960 --> 00:20:41.480
you're I read your review. I
saw it on there, and oh my

287
00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:45.720
gosh, I'm glad we were still
talking this morning. We were scheduled and

288
00:20:45.720 --> 00:20:48.279
I was like, I don't know
if it's going to happen now, I'm

289
00:20:48.279 --> 00:20:52.400
just kidding. Well, that's why
i'd like they even when sometimes at work

290
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:55.519
they go, oh, here's a
survey, it's anonymous, your name's not

291
00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:56.440
going to be tied to it,
and I'm like, hell, no,

292
00:20:56.640 --> 00:21:00.799
I'm not doing that, because you
know that some how your name's going to

293
00:21:00.839 --> 00:21:03.960
get tied to it. One hundred
percent every survey I get from a hotel

294
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:06.039
where I like rip them, and
it's like, all of a sudden,

295
00:21:06.039 --> 00:21:07.279
I get like a private email from
the manager. I'm like, wait a

296
00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:11.279
second. I didn't think this was
public information. Like I thought you'd just

297
00:21:11.279 --> 00:21:17.000
get an anonymous you know this room
needs cleaning better, you know. Yeah,

298
00:21:17.119 --> 00:21:18.920
okay, so be careful if you're

to ten hours if you just need
to take a nap or rest during a

312
00:22:08.519 --> 00:22:15.359
hectic day. That sounds like a
prostitution thing to me. Okay, where

00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:38.839
byebye. Okay, let's see when
we come back. What's old is new

319
00:22:40.200 --> 00:22:45.000
and before the new hits theaters?
I'm going to bust out the old that's

320
00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:49.039
your hint. You're listening to Wake
Up Call on demand from KFI AM six

321
00:22:49.160 --> 00:22:52.640
forty. If you're a big baseball
fan, you might be starting by watching

322
00:22:53.279 --> 00:22:57.519
the Dodgers and the Padres play in
Soul, South Korea. You can listen

323
00:22:57.519 --> 00:23:00.640
to the game on AM five.
Also, if you want to listen to

324
00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:03.839
the whole game because you don't want
to start it now, you can listen

325
00:23:03.880 --> 00:23:08.079
to a replay of it at noon
today on AM five seventy or on the

326
00:23:08.119 --> 00:23:12.319
iHeartRadio app. Here's what we're following
in the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.

327
00:23:12.359 --> 00:23:18.319
A controversial Texas immigration law is back
on hold. Hours after the Supreme Court

328
00:23:18.359 --> 00:23:22.480
decided the law could be enforced,
a three judge panel at the Fifth US

329
00:23:22.599 --> 00:23:26.079
Circuit Court of Appeals voted to block
it. The law would allow police to

330
00:23:26.200 --> 00:23:30.720
arrest anyone they suspect of crossing the
border illegally. The CDC says, so

331
00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:34.680
far this year, there have been
fifty eight cases of measles in seventeen states,

332
00:23:36.119 --> 00:23:40.160
and that's how many cases were reported
in all of twenty twenty three.

333
00:23:40.599 --> 00:23:45.119
The CDC is again urging families to
make sure they get their vaccinations against measles,

334
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:49.119
which had been eradicated. Doctor say
on average, one infected person infects

335
00:23:49.160 --> 00:23:55.880
twelve to eighteen unvaccinated people. And
Albertson's and San Diego's taking steps to stop

336
00:23:55.960 --> 00:24:00.839
retail theft at its store. It
has fenced the store off. There's a

337
00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:03.960
fence surrounding the whole thing with two
entrance gates and one exit gate on the

338
00:24:04.039 --> 00:24:07.079
other side of the store where you
have to scan a receipt to get through

339
00:24:07.079 --> 00:24:12.039
the gate. At six oh five, it's handle on the news. This

340
00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:15.039
isn't a great look. On the
first day of the Major League Baseball season.

341
00:24:15.079 --> 00:24:21.960
A bomb threat targeting at New Dodger
star shohe Otani. At five point

342
00:24:21.960 --> 00:24:25.480
fifty, we're going to be checking
in with ABC's Tom Rivers. We're talking

343
00:24:25.599 --> 00:24:32.599
Olympics and how Team Russia is affected
by the war in Ukraine. Aamie's on

344
00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:41.640
it, Gamie's on, Amy's on
it, Gami's on it? What am

345
00:24:41.640 --> 00:24:45.880
I on? I'm on movies,
TV shows, streaming, even books every

346
00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:49.480
now and again, because there's so
much to watch and see and do out

347
00:24:49.480 --> 00:24:53.920
there. Hopefully it can guide you
to some good things, so as you

348
00:24:55.240 --> 00:25:00.640
may or may not have heard the
new ghost Ghostmusters. The Ghostbusters movie is

349
00:25:00.680 --> 00:25:10.640
about to hit theaters. It's called
Ghostbusters Frozen Empire. So there are four

350
00:25:10.960 --> 00:25:15.960
Ghostbusters movies in the franchise. The
first one came out in nineteen eighty four.

351
00:25:17.160 --> 00:25:19.599
Of course, that's the one with
Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold

352
00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:26.559
Ramus, Ernie Hudson, Sigourney Weaver, Annie Pott's Rick moranis and then there's

353
00:25:26.599 --> 00:25:29.079
three other movies. So I was
like, you know what, I haven't

354
00:25:29.119 --> 00:25:33.799
seen these movies in forever, And
in fact, I never saw the New

355
00:25:33.160 --> 00:25:38.079
Girl Ghostbusters movie or Ghostbusters Afterlife,
which came out in twenty twenty one.

356
00:25:38.119 --> 00:25:41.640
So I thought, well, before
the new movie comes out, I should

357
00:25:41.680 --> 00:25:45.200
probably go and watch all of these
because you know how sometimes they make references

358
00:25:45.200 --> 00:25:49.160
to old movies or to old stories, and if you don't know the story,

359
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:52.920
you're kind of out of the loop
on a lot of the stuff that's

360
00:25:52.960 --> 00:25:56.440
going on. So I thought,
I'll go watch them all and see what

361
00:25:56.480 --> 00:26:00.599
they what I think. So again, the first one, the original from

362
00:26:00.680 --> 00:26:04.519
nineteen eighty four, I still think
it's hilarious. I mean, it's went

363
00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:08.680
forty what is that forty years thirty
years ago. I can't do math.

364
00:26:08.920 --> 00:26:12.880
It's forty years ago. But it's
still really good. I thought I thought

365
00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:18.440
it was. It's still entertaining,
it's still fun, not obviously not scary,

366
00:26:18.519 --> 00:26:23.440
but the little supposed to be scary
stuff that ends up not being scary.

367
00:26:23.480 --> 00:26:26.519
But I just thought it was a
great, great movie to watch.

368
00:26:26.599 --> 00:26:30.599
I think the acting was fun,
everybody was fun. And then Ghostbusters too,

369
00:26:30.680 --> 00:26:37.160
I think still was good. The
Girl version which came out in twenty

370
00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:40.720
sixteen that I had not seen,
I did watch, and it has Kristin

371
00:26:40.720 --> 00:26:45.039
Wig, who I love, and
Melissa McCarthy and Leslie Jones from Saturday Night

372
00:26:45.079 --> 00:26:49.000
Live, Kate McKennon also from Saturday
Night Live. Chris Hemsworth Hello. He

373
00:26:49.079 --> 00:26:55.599
plays a receptionist in it, and
he is absolutely adorable. So it was

374
00:26:55.680 --> 00:26:57.839
good, but it was like a
standalone movie. So it's along the same

375
00:26:57.880 --> 00:27:03.519
theme where there's ghosts showing up in
New York, and they do sort of

376
00:27:03.559 --> 00:27:07.680
reference the old movie, so it
helps if you have the background of the

377
00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:11.400
other movie, even though the storyline's
completely different. It's a good watch,

378
00:27:11.039 --> 00:27:15.559
but not my favorite. And then
the most recent one is Ghostbusters Afterlife,

379
00:27:15.559 --> 00:27:21.359
which just came out in twenty twenty
two, and that has McKenna Grace,

380
00:27:21.599 --> 00:27:26.079
who's she's the teenage actor who's kind
of the star of it. And then

381
00:27:26.279 --> 00:27:30.240
Finn Wolfhard Wolford I'm not sure how
to pronounce his name, but he's from

382
00:27:30.279 --> 00:27:33.640
Stranger Things. And then Carrie Kuhn
is the mom. She's from Gilded Age,

383
00:27:33.759 --> 00:27:37.119
and then Paul Rudd is in it
too, And I think that it

384
00:27:37.240 --> 00:27:45.160
was really really good because it happens
thirty two years after the second Ghostbusters,

385
00:27:45.559 --> 00:27:51.680
when they've disbanded, their legacy is
mostly forgotten. And then Carrie Kuhn plays

386
00:27:51.799 --> 00:27:56.359
a single mom and she and her
kids moved to a farm in Oklahoma that

387
00:27:56.440 --> 00:28:00.880
they inherited from their estranged father.
And they don't tell you right out of

388
00:28:00.920 --> 00:28:06.400
the gun or out of the gate
who the exchanged father is, but you

389
00:28:06.480 --> 00:28:10.400
find out pretty quickly. And I
think that this one was really fun.

390
00:28:10.640 --> 00:28:14.400
So I would say the first one
from nineteen eighty four probably the best one,

391
00:28:14.759 --> 00:28:18.160
but then After Life was really good, and it'll be interesting to see

392
00:28:18.200 --> 00:28:22.279
if Frozen Empire makes references to it. I don't want to tell you too

393
00:28:22.319 --> 00:28:25.000
much about it, probably if you've
seen it, you know, if you

394
00:28:25.079 --> 00:28:26.440
haven't seen it, It's worth the
watch, and I will tell you that

395
00:28:26.480 --> 00:28:33.680
there are some really fun cameos in
the last two movies. We'll just say

396
00:28:33.720 --> 00:28:37.880
that. Okay, So Gustbusters,
Frozen Empire, Nick Pauli, o'keeanne and

397
00:28:37.920 --> 00:28:41.160
I are actually going to go see
it and so we'll be reporting back to

398
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:45.279
you on that one. But really
was surprised, really liked After Life,

399
00:28:45.319 --> 00:28:48.799
which again was the fourth movie in
the franchise. Let's get back to some

400
00:28:48.839 --> 00:28:52.279
of the stories coming out of the
KFI twenty four hour newsroom. La City

401
00:28:52.279 --> 00:28:56.599
Councilman Kevin de Leone is set for
a runoff in November to try to keep

402
00:28:56.640 --> 00:29:00.680
his job. Results from the March
fifth primary show him in second place behind

403
00:29:00.759 --> 00:29:04.880
tenants rights attorney Isabelle Herado, who
has more than twenty four percent of the

404
00:29:04.960 --> 00:29:10.400
vote. Daily On has just over
twenty three percent. Their Register Recorder County

405
00:29:10.400 --> 00:29:14.240
clerks is There are still about thirty
four hundred ballots left to process county wide,

406
00:29:14.319 --> 00:29:17.480
but again the top two finishers will
head to the runoff in November.

407
00:29:17.920 --> 00:29:22.319
La County has changed its rules for
short term rentals in unincorporated areas. County

408
00:29:22.359 --> 00:29:26.240
leaders say the new regulations are designed
to preserve housing stock and quality of life,

409
00:29:26.319 --> 00:29:30.240
while also still allowing property owners to
rent out some spaces. Moving forward,

410
00:29:30.319 --> 00:29:33.759
operators of short term rentals found on
websites like Airbnb or verbo will have

411
00:29:33.839 --> 00:29:37.599
to pay a nine hundred and fourteen
dollars annual fee. Available rentals are also

412
00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:42.599
restricted to the host primary residents,
no accessory, dwelling units or vacation properties.

413
00:29:42.839 --> 00:29:45.799
The rules are only for the unincorporated
parts of the county, not the

414
00:29:45.839 --> 00:29:52.240
cities which manage their own regulations.
Michael Monks KFI News. The death of

415
00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:56.640
a woman whose torso was found in
a trash bin in Encino has officially been

416
00:29:56.720 --> 00:30:02.319
ruled a homicide, and autopsy report
released just also says the areas where the

417
00:30:02.319 --> 00:30:07.680
limbs were cut were so smooth it
suggests a sharp power tool was likely used.

418
00:30:07.279 --> 00:30:11.759
The woman's husband is charged with killing
her and her parents in November.

419
00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:15.599
He's pleaded not guilty. The bodies
of the parents have not been found.

420
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:21.680
Prosecutors say Rebecca Grossman has admitted during
jail phone calls in La County to trying

421
00:30:21.680 --> 00:30:25.960
to influence the jury, the witnesses, and even the judge in her case.

422
00:30:26.039 --> 00:30:29.519
Court records alleged Grossman admitted to trying
to get witnesses to say they were

423
00:30:29.519 --> 00:30:33.839
forced to testify, asked her daughter
to release sealed bodycam video to the media,

424
00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:37.400
and talked about sending someone to try
to convince the judge to order a

425
00:30:37.440 --> 00:30:41.279
retrial. A motion filed Monday also
alleges jury tampering, claiming a private investigator

426
00:30:41.319 --> 00:30:45.119
working for the defense showed up at
three jurors homes. Prosecutors will ask a

427
00:30:45.160 --> 00:30:49.440
judge on Friday to revoke the woman's
jail phone privileges. Grossman faces thirty four

428
00:30:49.480 --> 00:30:52.960
years that sentencing set for next month
for killing two boys during a crash in

429
00:30:53.000 --> 00:30:57.960
twenty twenty in Westlake Village. Corbin
Carson kf I News Doctor Dray, my

430
00:30:59.039 --> 00:31:03.079
brother from another hip hop legend,
Doctor Dre, has been honored with a

431
00:31:03.160 --> 00:31:07.000
star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He was joined yesterday by friends and

432
00:31:07.039 --> 00:31:11.400
associates who've been in his corner for
decades, like Snoop dogg Eminem, Jimmy

433
00:31:11.559 --> 00:31:15.680
Iovine, fifty Cent and others.
Dre says growing up in Compton, he

434
00:31:15.759 --> 00:31:21.039
would never have imagined that he would
one day be represented among some of his

435
00:31:21.160 --> 00:31:25.599
child childhood heroes. He told the
crowd, the saying is true, if

436
00:31:25.599 --> 00:31:29.319
you love your work, you'll never
work a day in your life. One

437
00:31:29.359 --> 00:31:33.680
of my favorite sayings. If you
missed my interview on Monday with Space Force

438
00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:37.839
guardian and NASA astronaut Colonel Nick Haig, we wanted to let you know that

439
00:31:37.880 --> 00:31:41.119
we've put it up on the KFI
website so you can go and give it

440
00:31:41.160 --> 00:31:47.400
a listen KFI am six forty dot
com slash wake Up Call and it's right

441
00:31:47.400 --> 00:31:52.599
there, really fun conversation and we're
going to be talking again with Colonel Hague

442
00:31:52.119 --> 00:31:56.119
as he gets closer to going to
the International Space Station. So he's been

443
00:31:56.200 --> 00:32:00.640
up in space before and was on
the space station and he gets to go

444
00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:04.839
back and he'll spend like six months
there, and so we're going to check

445
00:32:04.839 --> 00:32:07.400
in periodically with him while he's doing
his training and kind of find out what

446
00:32:07.480 --> 00:32:10.440
life on the space station is.
Like. I like that kind of stuff.

447
00:32:10.480 --> 00:32:15.640
I think, you know, he's
experiencing something that well, none of

448
00:32:15.720 --> 00:32:17.920

Call on demand from KFI AM six forty.

458
00:32:57.039 --> 00:33:00.559
Good morning. Here's what we're following
in the KFI twenty four hours newsroom.

459
00:33:00.640 --> 00:33:05.880
The Major League Baseball season is officially
underway today. The San Diego Padres

460
00:33:06.240 --> 00:33:08.880
and the LA Dodgers are playing right
now in Seoul, South Korea. The

461
00:33:08.920 --> 00:33:14.759
two game series marks the first time
that a regular season game has been played

462
00:33:14.839 --> 00:33:17.839
in South Korea. The Dodgers home
opener is a week from tomorrow at Dodgers

463
00:33:17.920 --> 00:33:22.960
Stadium. Producer and representing for the
San Diego Padres with her jersey I got

464
00:33:23.000 --> 00:33:30.039
my Dodger blue jersey on go Blue
controversial La City councilman Kevin Dalyon and Tenants

465
00:33:30.079 --> 00:33:36.279
Wrights attorney Isabelle Herado appear headed for
a runoff. The updated vote count yesterday

466
00:33:36.319 --> 00:33:39.200
has Herado leading daily On by about
four hundred votes. The top two candidates

467
00:33:39.200 --> 00:33:44.200
will square off in November. Almost
a billion dollars is on the line for

468
00:33:44.240 --> 00:33:47.200
the next Mega Millions drawing. No
one matched all six winning numbers from last

469
00:33:47.319 --> 00:33:52.480
night's drawing, so the jackpot for
Mega Millions goes up to nine hundred seventy

470
00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:55.359
seven million dollars for Friday. And
if you don't want to wait till then,

471
00:33:55.400 --> 00:34:00.839
Powerball has a drawing tonight. It's
worth six hundred eighty seven million dollars.

472
00:34:00.279 --> 00:34:05.000
We're just minutes away from handle on
the news this morning. Not such

473
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:07.920
a great look. On the first
day of Major Leagues baseball season. A

474
00:34:08.039 --> 00:34:14.199
bomb threats targeting new Dodger star Shohei
Otani. I'll tell you more about that.

475
00:34:14.559 --> 00:34:20.239
Let's say good morning now to ABC's
Tom Rivers in London. So Tom,

476
00:34:20.440 --> 00:34:22.960
the Russian and the Belarussian. I
don't know if that's the way you

477
00:34:23.000 --> 00:34:29.920
say. Athletes can participate in the
twenty twenty four Summer Games, but there's

478
00:34:29.920 --> 00:34:35.039
a hitch. Yeah, they've been
working on their rules at the IOC and

479
00:34:35.079 --> 00:34:39.920
they're going to be neutrals. So
thirty six individuals from Russia twenty two from

480
00:34:40.000 --> 00:34:45.960
Belarus are going to be allowed to
play, but not collectively. So there's

481
00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:49.679
any totals, it will not be
you know, Russian team winning is just

482
00:34:49.719 --> 00:34:55.719
going to be individuals. Oh okay, so what so opening ceremonies is one

483
00:34:55.719 --> 00:34:59.599
of my favorite parts. In closing
ceremonies, I always think is really fun

484
00:34:59.679 --> 00:35:04.519
just to kind of get the whole
party started. And so do they come

485
00:35:04.559 --> 00:35:08.320
out individually or did they come out
with no flag or did oh wait,

486
00:35:08.360 --> 00:35:14.079
they're not coming out at all?
Exactly. You're gonna love this. It's

487
00:35:14.119 --> 00:35:16.599
not going to be the parade around
the stadium. It's going to be the

488
00:35:16.639 --> 00:35:22.360
athletes on boats going down the river
then, except those individuals are going to

489
00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:28.239
be on the bank watching all of
their other colleagues go down the river.

490
00:35:28.760 --> 00:35:30.880
So it's going to be very different
in that regard, but it is what

491
00:35:30.920 --> 00:35:35.159
it is. I think it'd be
cute if they gave them a little kayaks

492
00:35:35.159 --> 00:35:38.320
and they could eat individually go down
the river. I hadn't heard of that

493
00:35:38.320 --> 00:35:42.440
that sounds like a kind of a
cool I mean, I love the stadium

494
00:35:42.519 --> 00:35:45.480
and all of that. So do
you know then after they go down the

495
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:49.480
boats, are they going to stop
at a stadium and then they do the

496
00:35:49.480 --> 00:35:52.400
opening ceremony show or is that going
to be completely different too. We don't

497
00:35:52.440 --> 00:35:57.199
know. We know they're heading toward
the Eiffel Tower, and how they're going

498
00:35:57.280 --> 00:36:00.000
to disperse from there, we're not
sure. But that's that's been nailed down.

499
00:36:00.800 --> 00:36:06.559
The closing ceremony though, is not
and their interaction with it, so

500
00:36:06.599 --> 00:36:08.400
we don't know. That's one of
the last pieces of the puzzle. They're

501
00:36:08.400 --> 00:36:12.960
going to figure that out in the
next couple of weeks. Okay, so

502
00:36:13.400 --> 00:36:21.920
then tell me if the athletes are
competing under neutral so it's basically they're competing

503
00:36:21.960 --> 00:36:28.119
as individuals. If they win medals, does it go into the pool for

504
00:36:28.239 --> 00:36:31.920
neutrals like when they have the medal
count or do they just not register anywhere

505
00:36:31.960 --> 00:36:36.400
because they're just in Yeah, they
get, they get they get just as

506
00:36:36.480 --> 00:36:39.159
individuals. Now five year old kid
could add them up and say, well,

507
00:36:39.199 --> 00:36:43.840
that's really Russia, but they're not
putting it in that category, in

508
00:36:43.880 --> 00:36:46.840
that total if you will in the
table. So it's going to be individuals.

509
00:36:46.880 --> 00:36:51.519
They're going to get their own anthem, which is going to be pretty

510
00:36:51.599 --> 00:36:55.719
neutral as well, no lyrics.
They get a neutral flag as well.

511
00:36:55.760 --> 00:37:00.079
But of course everybody knows where they're
coming from, right, okay, and

512
00:37:00.280 --> 00:37:07.039
has has Russia or Belarus reacted to
this information? I've been they'll resign to

513
00:37:07.079 --> 00:37:12.400
it. At least they get some
athletes to participate, and you know,

514
00:37:12.639 --> 00:37:15.760
that's better than not being there at
all. So I think a shrug,

515
00:37:15.000 --> 00:37:19.800
shrug of the shoulders, and they're
saying, yep, it is what it

516
00:37:19.840 --> 00:37:22.239
is. Well we'll take it at
that level. Okay. So there's no

517
00:37:22.280 --> 00:37:25.320
sign that they're gonna like say,
hey, you guys can't go and you

518
00:37:25.360 --> 00:37:29.159
can't compete or anything like that.
They're just saying, okay, fine,

519
00:37:29.280 --> 00:37:32.039
we're just kind of sitting there and
watching. Yeah, exactly, okay,

520
00:37:32.039 --> 00:37:36.039
exactly. Well, you know what, I think that that's great because we

521
00:37:36.119 --> 00:37:39.960
know how hard everybody works to get
to the Olympics, and so that they

522
00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:43.519
get to compete as good. I
think it's kind of weird that they have

523
00:37:43.599 --> 00:37:47.360
to sit on the on the shoreline
and watch the parade go by. It's

524
00:37:47.440 --> 00:37:50.760
kind of weird, but it is
what it is all right. Thank you

525
00:37:50.800 --> 00:37:54.079
so much for the information. Tom
Rivers, take care, take care,

526
00:37:54.199 --> 00:38:00.840
all right. LAPD Chief Choice is
new crisis response teams hit the streets.

527
00:38:00.880 --> 00:38:05.320
The Unarmed Model for Crisis Response program
is testing at Wilshire, Devonshire in Southeast

528
00:38:05.360 --> 00:38:07.800
divisions. It started March twelve and
then this short time period March twelve through

529
00:38:07.800 --> 00:38:13.119
the sixteenth, the UMCR responded to
eighty three calls for certain. Of those

530
00:38:13.159 --> 00:38:16.199
calls, most were for indecent exposure
and public disturbance. Forty three of those

531
00:38:16.199 --> 00:38:21.280
calls were in Wilshire area, twenty
seven of the calls were in Devonshire area,

532
00:38:21.360 --> 00:38:23.440
and thirteen of the calls were in
Southeast area. Choi told the police

533
00:38:23.480 --> 00:38:28.719
commissioned yesterday. Each of the teams
has two people with expertise and mental illness

534
00:38:28.719 --> 00:38:32.519
and behavioral health. Steve Gregory k
Fineows, a convicted murder, has been

535
00:38:32.639 --> 00:38:38.320
charged in Orange County with kidnapping for
extortion or ransom in Midway City near Westminster.

536
00:38:38.639 --> 00:38:43.880
The man's accused of grabbing another man
on Friday. The alleged kidnapper was

537
00:38:43.920 --> 00:38:47.000
found guilty of killing someone more than
twenty years ago. People who live in

538
00:38:47.159 --> 00:38:52.960
La County no longer have to pay
for the body of a deceased person transported

539
00:38:52.039 --> 00:38:57.920
and stored. The Board of Supervisors
eliminated the four hundred dollars fee yesterday.

540
00:38:58.159 --> 00:39:02.360
Supervisor Hilda Salasa's it's for compassion and
equity. Just as we know that many

541
00:39:02.400 --> 00:39:07.639
Angelinos do not have a savings account. When death in a family is sudden,

542
00:39:07.000 --> 00:39:12.400
it only then do we really realize
the steep cost of death. The

543
00:39:12.440 --> 00:39:15.800
county had budgeted this year for about
one point one million dollars in costs associated

544
00:39:15.840 --> 00:39:21.239
with the transportation and storing of bodies. A state in tech Or a state

545
00:39:21.320 --> 00:39:24.719
law in Texas that allows police to
arrest illegal immigrants has been blocked again.

546
00:39:25.079 --> 00:39:30.840
ABC's Connor Finnegan says the Supreme Court
yesterday allowed the law to take effect,

547
00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:34.519
and late last night a federal appeals
court put it back on hold. The

548
00:39:34.559 --> 00:39:38.480
Supreme Court's conservative majority had dismissed the
Biden administration's argument to keep the law on

549
00:39:38.559 --> 00:39:43.679
hold. Well it's being challenged,
sparking fiery descends from the liberal justices,

550
00:39:43.719 --> 00:39:46.719
and even a warning from the Mexican
government that it would not cooperate with Texas.

551
00:39:47.000 --> 00:39:52.079
Arguments are said to be heard this
morning on the state's request to reinstate

552
00:39:52.119 --> 00:39:57.719
the law. The CDC has issued
an advisory about an increase in measles cases

553
00:39:57.760 --> 00:40:01.000
in the US. Fifty Eight cases
the hi highly contagious virus have been reported

554
00:40:01.119 --> 00:40:06.880
this year in seventeen states, including
California. Doctors say on average, one

555
00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:13.480
infected person affects twelve to eighteen unvaccinated
people. Common symptoms include a rash,

556
00:40:13.599 --> 00:40:16.639
high fever, watery eyes, cough, and a writing nose. At one

557
00:40:16.679 --> 00:40:22.800
point, measles had been eradicated,
but oh joy, it's back. Hibernating

558
00:40:22.840 --> 00:40:27.880
bears in California are waking up and
they're hungry. Official say. Melting snow

559
00:40:27.920 --> 00:40:34.880
and wet weather brings wildflowers and wildflower
flyer. Wildflowers bring back bears to areas

560
00:40:34.880 --> 00:40:38.920
where they haven't historically lived. Official
say bears can smell food from miles away

561
00:40:39.159 --> 00:40:43.679
and can easily rip the door off
a house or a car if they smell

562
00:40:43.760 --> 00:40:50.159
something yummy inside. It is illegal
to intentionally feed black bears in California.

563
00:40:50.840 --> 00:40:54.280
I want to mention this bill Maher, the host of Real Time, has

564
00:40:54.440 --> 00:41:00.480
fired his agents, so he was
represented by CIA. He's been with CIA

565
00:41:00.599 --> 00:41:06.320
for more than two decades, but
we're getting word that he dumped his representation

566
00:41:06.559 --> 00:41:10.920
because he was mad that he wasn't
invited to the CEO's private Oscar party at

567
00:41:10.920 --> 00:41:15.039
his house on Saturday night. So
I'm guessing that it happened the Saturday night

568
00:41:15.079 --> 00:41:19.920
before the Oscars, And according to
sources, mar was furious that he was

569
00:41:19.960 --> 00:41:25.920
snubbed for the event, which was
attended by people like jj Abrams, Kamala

570
00:41:25.960 --> 00:41:30.960
Harris, Margot, Robbie bob Iger
and other CAA clients like Julia Robertson,

571
00:41:31.039 --> 00:41:35.360
Jennifer Aniston. So he was ticked
and he said, that's it. Man.

572
00:41:37.079 --> 00:41:38.840
Nice to be in that powerful of
a position. I'm guessing he can

573
00:41:38.880 --> 00:41:43.960
probably find a new agent, or
maybe they'll make up. This is KFI
