00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:04.360
Hey, it's Jennifer Jones Lee.
You're listening to KFI, a M six

2
00:00:04.480 --> 00:00:09.560
forty wake up call on demand on
the iHeartRadio app. This Friday Eve is

3
00:00:10.320 --> 00:00:19.839
particularly happy. Why is this Friday
Eve particularly happy? Because starting tomorrow morning,

4
00:00:20.359 --> 00:00:23.600
my alarm will not go off at
two forty five in the morning.

5
00:00:23.879 --> 00:00:31.120
What Tony is in for Tyler this
morning? And I just got a double

6
00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:35.920
one finger salute? Whoa. I
know it sucks when somebody's like, I'm

7
00:00:35.960 --> 00:00:39.439
going on vacation and you're like,
oh, yeah, I can tell you

8
00:00:39.439 --> 00:00:44.600
where to stick that vacation sunshine.
Anyway, I am going on vacation.

9
00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:49.399
I'm heading up to Redding. It
is. I know, this is like

10
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:54.159
the perfect opportunity for a handle to, you know, do something some redneck

11
00:00:54.200 --> 00:01:00.240
comment. But I think so.
This weekend, We've got Jones family get

12
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:07.280
together at Burrito Bandido. You can't
make this up. There were twenty six

13
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:14.640
Joneses on a text message thread.
Everybody's gonna get a burrito bowl. We're

14
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:18.200
all gonna chill out because that's what
Joneses due. We've got a steak feed,

15
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:23.400
We've got a rodeo in Cottonwood tomorrow. Mother's Day Sunday, followed by

16
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:26.840
next week much much time at the
lake, which is going to be great

17
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:34.439
with my cousins, and then next
weekend it gets real pancake breakfast Friday morning,

18
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:40.480
Friday night rodeo, Saturday night rodeo. And the best part about this

19
00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:46.280
is I've not been to Rodeo week
up there since I was seventeen and set

20
00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:51.799
the national anthem on a horse three
nights in a row at white jeans,

21
00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:59.120
red boots, blue shirt, red
hat. It's all gonna be on Instagram

22
00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:01.200
because I feel like a lot of
times I need to document my life.

23
00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:05.760
Otherwise you're you guys are gonna be
like, she makes that up. Nope,

24
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:12.080
Nope, nope nope. JJLKFI on
Instagram, Jennifer Jones Lee on Facebook,

25
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:15.599
And yeah, you'll get to see
what my life really is like the

26
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:20.039
Jones Best this weekend and I am
so here for it. It'll be fun.

27
00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:23.479
It's just cool because I haven't done
it in thirty years, so that's

28
00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:25.560
why I'm looking forward to it.
Some of the stories we're watching in the

29
00:02:25.639 --> 00:02:31.479
KFI twenty four hour newsroom. LA
County Probation officials have implemented emergency security measures

30
00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:37.199
at the county's juvenile halls after the
overdose death of an eighteen year old.

31
00:02:37.479 --> 00:02:43.479
Now talking about emergency measures, Tattle
forty two will officially expire tonight at eleven

32
00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:49.240
fifty nine. So unless a court
intervenes, it looks like the pandemic era

33
00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:53.680
immigration policy is out of here and
we've got all kinds of migrants lined up

34
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:57.039
at the border. We're gonna talk
about that with ABC's Jim Ryan. He's

35
00:02:57.080 --> 00:03:00.520
in El Paso, Texas. Also, you had the town hall last night

36
00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:05.719
with former President Trump and CNN's Caitlin
Collins. How did it go well?

37
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:09.400
At least in one case? Former
President Trump says that you know how he

38
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:14.520
was found liable for sexual abuse.
He still says he does not know a

39
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:17.520
Gene Carroll and that the whole thing
was fake. So let's start with some

40
00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:21.639
of the stories coming out of the
KFI twenty four hour news room. A

41
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:23.520
twelve year old boy has been killed
in the shooting in Long Beach. A

42
00:03:23.560 --> 00:03:28.439
fourteen year old girl was hurt.
Please say the two were walking along Lewis

43
00:03:28.479 --> 00:03:31.680
Avenue late last night between Martin Luther
King Junior and Orange Avenues when they were

44
00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:37.919
approached by at least two guys in
a car someone inside started shooting. Emergency

45
00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:40.879
security measures have been put in in
La County's juvenile halls. A list of

46
00:03:40.919 --> 00:03:45.560
new procedures were sent out in a
memo following the fatal overdose of an eighteen

47
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:49.599
year old at the Nidor facility in
Silmar. KFI News obtained the internal memo

48
00:03:49.719 --> 00:03:53.240
yesterday, which says new search protocols
would begin for visitors and staff only,

49
00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:58.599
see through bags will be allowed in
facilities, and metal detector wands will be

50
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:01.759
issued to dormitories. Sources in the
Probation department say these measures used to be

51
00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:04.960
in place, but were removed by
the Board of Supervisors in favor of a

52
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:10.599
more family friendly environment. The memo
also outlines more aggressive rules to deal with

53
00:04:10.680 --> 00:04:15.240
drones that drop contraband into the facilities
and the purchase of vapor tracer machines to

54
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:18.360
check for drug residue on anyone who
enters a facility. Steve Gregory, King

55
00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:23.240
of Fine, hundreds of troops are
heading to the US Mexico border, along

56
00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:27.800
with more US marshals, immigration officials, and National Guard troops as Title forty

57
00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:31.680
two expires. The COVID nineteen policy
allowed the US to expel migrants who cross

58
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:36.680
the border. Arizona Sheriff's Association President
Sheriff Don Rhodes has vowed to support all

59
00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:42.079
law enforcement stationed at the border.
We know what you're doing. We appreciate

60
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:46.000
it, we support you. We're
behind you one hundred percent. We're fighting

61
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:48.439
to get your resources. And we'll
talk more about this with ABC's Jim Ryan,

62
00:04:48.480 --> 00:04:51.600
who is in El Paso, Texas. In just a second. Former

63
00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:56.439
President Trump says the case in New
York where he was found liable for sexual

64
00:04:56.439 --> 00:05:00.680
abuse was fake. During a CNN
town hall meeting last night, told potential

65
00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:04.839
voters the case was made up and
politically motivated. The crowd laughed and applauded.

66
00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:10.839
Republican Senator Mitt Romney says he hopes
the civil trials outcomes shed some light

67
00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:15.319
on Trump's character. The jury of
President Trump's appears found him responsible for a

68
00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:20.079
sexual assault. I hope the jury
of the American people reached the same conclusion,

69
00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:24.160
which is he is not fit to
become president of the United States.

70
00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:28.240
When asked if the jury's decision would
prevent women from voting for him, Trump

71
00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:30.920
said no, I don't think so. When we come back more on what's

72
00:05:30.920 --> 00:05:35.920
happening at the border with the expiration
of Title forty two at eleven fifty nine

73
00:05:35.959 --> 00:05:39.920
tonight or right now. Let's get
a look at your drive. Good morning,

74
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:44.639
Robert Dubucky. Where we hadn't We're
heading to lake View terrors on the

75
00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:47.319
west und side of the two ten
where all lanes are shut down between Osbourne

76
00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:50.800
and the one eighteen. This is
Caltrans work scheduled until around six o'clock this

77
00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:55.519
morning, so you are seeing heavy
delays through the area there. We also

78
00:05:55.519 --> 00:05:58.519
had a full closure in Upland on
the eastbound side of the ten freeway.

79
00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:00.879
Youclid towards Fort Street. They've started
picking up those cones. Want for some

80
00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:04.360
minor delays heading through the area as
they continue that process. And then Loma

81
00:06:04.439 --> 00:06:08.079
Linda on the westbound side of the
ten. Just passed Mountain View. It's

82
00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:11.199
a crashed in the carpool lane backed
up. They're heavy to Alabama Street.

83
00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:15.079
KFI in the sky helps get you
there faster. I'm Robert to Bucky five

84
00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:17.079
or six on your wake up.
Called Jim Ryan, good morning to you.

85
00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:23.199
Has the situation at the border changed
at all? With now literally the

86
00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:28.439
countdown now going to just a few
more hours. At the expiration of Title

87
00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:31.680
forty two, thanks are pretty much
where they were yesterday in the day before

88
00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:36.040
that, although this migrant camp that
was set up outside of church here in

89
00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:40.120
El Paso has kind of been clear
to have. People have been taken to

90
00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:44.839
other shelters, are taken to different
locations. As you know, the Customs

91
00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:49.720
and Border Protection processing facilities here in
El Paso and down in Laredo, different

92
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:56.920
parts of the state are essentially overburdened
at this point, but there are locations

93
00:06:56.920 --> 00:07:00.279
that are not, and some people
are being shuttled to those other places,

94
00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:03.560
those other customs locations to make applications. So what happens to night at eleven

95
00:07:03.639 --> 00:07:09.279
fifty nine pm Eastern time. Title
forty two is replaced by Title eight.

96
00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:14.439
Title eight was the immigration policy before
Title forty two was imposed during the pandemic.

97
00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:17.600
Then it goes back into effect.
It has its own rules and regulations,

98
00:07:17.639 --> 00:07:25.519
its own stipulations that they imposed requirements
on people trying to apply for asylum

99
00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:29.800
or apply for immigration status here in
this country. And it also allows for

100
00:07:29.839 --> 00:07:33.920
the immediate expulsion of people who are
not here legally and they can turn around

101
00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:39.959
and be sent back either in Mexico
or to their home countries without hearing whatsoever.

102
00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:42.839
So some things will change, some
things really won't change. The one

103
00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:46.040
thing I tell you is that a
lot more people will be applying starting tomorrow

104
00:07:46.040 --> 00:07:48.920
four asylum. That's what I assumed, And so that's in probably the influx

105
00:07:48.959 --> 00:07:51.879
there, because they're like great,
starting at eleven fifty nine, you know,

106
00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:56.120
boom, the minute the clock strikes
midnight, I can go in for

107
00:07:56.279 --> 00:08:00.639
my asylum or apply for it.
Going back to now the title eight,

108
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:03.600
that one with the restrictions where you
can be turned around if you try and

109
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:07.639
come illegally, you can be flipped
around. I know that some of the

110
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:11.600
border patrol people were talking about people
who are trying to get in illegally through

111
00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:16.360
those border checkpoints, and that they
had seen an influx of people coming through

112
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:20.439
there. So those would be the
people, right who they would turn around

113
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:24.800
immediately if caught. Yes, right, the folks who are coming here illegally.

114
00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:26.439
So I mean you're dealing with two
different groups of people, those who

115
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:33.360
are trying to sneak into the country
illegally between the border checkpoints and those who

116
00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:37.240
are coming through legally or trying to
come through legally, making application, surrendering

117
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:41.080
to border patrol, filling out paperwork
and then being admitted into the country or

118
00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:46.759
being turned around immediately because you don't
qualify. So yeah, these are those

119
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:50.679
are kind of the two groups.
And the administration, the Biden administration,

120
00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:56.519
has sent active duty military personnel here
to back up the customs agents in processing

121
00:08:56.519 --> 00:09:01.840
all this paperwork. Governor Greg Abbott
has sent another can tinggent of National Guard

122
00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:07.440
troops who will be monitoring and between
the border checkpoints to see that people aren't

123
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:11.120
coming to the country illegally, all
right. And for these border towns that

124
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:13.559
have all these people in them,
and I realized that you're saying, you

125
00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:16.600
know, the church that you were
looking at where they had migrants there looks

126
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:20.480
like has been cleared out. That
kind of thing, the stress and the

127
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:22.720
strain on these border towns, and
I realized that's why a lot of the

128
00:09:22.799 --> 00:09:26.440
National Guard troops were brought there in
the first place. But the strain on

129
00:09:26.679 --> 00:09:31.320
resources even in those cities, and
I'm talking you know, bottled water,

130
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:33.720
food, that kind of thing.
I would almost think that it's sort of

131
00:09:33.759 --> 00:09:39.600
like you guys had just been through
some sort of natural disaster or you were

132
00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:43.559
prepping for a natural disaster. It
just seems like if you're going to have

133
00:09:43.559 --> 00:09:46.799
an influx of all these people,
you would have to kind of plan like

134
00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:50.360
that exactly. That's what's happening here
in El Paso. The city has been

135
00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:54.480
working on this for several weeks,
well, I think, planning for it

136
00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:58.879
for months. The city declared made
a disaster declaration a couple of weeks ago,

137
00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:03.600
and has been setting up temporary shelters. For example, two schools,

138
00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:09.000
disused schools have been set up with
cots inside and with the emergency feeding,

139
00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:11.200
and that's sort of thing. You're
right, it's very much like a natural

140
00:10:11.240 --> 00:10:16.559
disaster. Those are being prepared for
people coming in if they're needed. They

141
00:10:16.639 --> 00:10:20.320
might not be needed, but I
think the expectation is that they certainly will

142
00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:24.559
be put into put into use.
So now that you're right, there is

143
00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:28.200
this preparation in border communities all up
and down, not just here in Texas,

144
00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:31.759
but in Arizona, New Mexico and
over where you are in California.

145
00:10:31.919 --> 00:10:35.720
All right, thank you so much, Jim, I appreciate it. So

146
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:39.480
jan all right, see later.
ABC is Jim Ryan, And obviously we'll

147
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:43.399
be keeping up to date on this
if there's any I don't know anymore.

148
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:48.159
It's it's it's interesting to me because
the plan is for there to be chaos.

149
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:52.720
That's the word that the President even
used, that he predicted there would

150
00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:58.279
be chaos at the border. And
I think that even for all the planning

151
00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:03.200
that you do, if you're one
of these border towns or border states and

152
00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:09.360
all the prep that you can make, you can't predict all of the you

153
00:11:09.399 --> 00:11:13.879
know, facets of chaos, right. I mean, that's that's it in

154
00:11:13.919 --> 00:11:20.159
its definition. It's well, this
is my definition of chaos. You don't

155
00:11:20.159 --> 00:11:26.759
know what's coming because everything's kind of
out of control and scorely, and so

156
00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:31.759
I don't I don't know how even
as much as these border towns prepare,

157
00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:39.039
how prepared can they be for what
they don't know? Right, let's get

158
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:41.879
back to some of these stories coming
out of the KFI twenty four hour news

159
00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:46.240
room. Now. Florida Governor De
Santis has signed an immigration bill as his

160
00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:50.360
state is preparing for the end of
Title forty two. He says the state

161
00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:54.679
is bracing for some turbulent times and
things can get a lot worse. People

162
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:58.159
are gonna come if they get benefits, and so what you want to do

163
00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:01.240
is say there's not benefits for coming
legally now. The bill signed yesterday in

164
00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:07.120
Florida requires hospitals accepting Medicaid to include
a question on the forums about a patient

165
00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:15.159
citizenship status. The legislation also includes
banning undocumented law school graduates from being admitted

166
00:12:15.159 --> 00:12:18.639
to the Florida Bar and strengthens the
required use of e verify. That's that

167
00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:26.000
database that employers used to check and
employees employment eligibility. New York Republican Congressman

168
00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:31.159
George Santos has pleaded not guilty to
unemployment and campaign finance fraud charges. He

169
00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:35.759
was released on bail and said outside
of court yesterday he's gonna fight. The

170
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:43.559
reality is because it makes no sense
that in four months, four months,

171
00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:52.840
five months I'm indicted, mister Santos. There have been a lot of questionable

172
00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:58.320
things surrounding you, some of which
we have even cought to So I'm just

173
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:05.919
saying which unt Santos is facing a
thirteen count federal indictment. How Speaker McCarthy

174
00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:11.320
says he will not support Santos for
reelection, but for now he's not calling

175
00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:16.120
on him to resign. And remember, Republicans need every vote that they can

176
00:13:16.159 --> 00:13:20.559
get so I feel like even the
fact that McCarthy is like, I'm not

177
00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:24.679
touching you, buddy, is kind
of a big deal because he knows that

178
00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:28.320
there is the potential for a Democrat
to come in there. Should Santos be

179
00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:31.919
booted out of his seat, and
so for even the House Speaker not to

180
00:13:31.960 --> 00:13:39.320
get behind you kind of says something
because his position sort of puts or could

181
00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:46.440
potentially put the number of votes in
the party at risk. The La County

182
00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:50.159
Sheriff's Department says money is driving the
continuance of street takeovers in Compton. Police

183
00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:54.120
say drivers are paying off some workers
at tire shops to stay open during the

184
00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:58.879
street shows, and some people are
getting kickbacks for posting the driver's videos online.

185
00:14:00.320 --> 00:14:05.600
Former street takeover driver Ismael Tamar says
he stopped participating when he saw it

186
00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:09.759
was creating danger, a danger to
people and a danger to the public as

187
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:13.799
well as the people attending the events. The Sheriff's Department says it impounded several

188
00:14:13.840 --> 00:14:18.559
cars and handed out citations during street
takeovers Monday night. The department says it

189
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:22.519
has zero tolerance for anyone earning money
from street shows in Compton. Chris Adler,

190
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:26.240
KF I News. All right.
You guys know how much I love

191
00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:31.360
shows like Snapped or you know,
anything that's on ID or whatever. I

192
00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:37.200
love true crime stuff. This story
about the mom from Utah charged with murdering

193
00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:43.639
her husband then writing that children's book
to help them with grief. Yeah,

194
00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:48.679
we're going to talk more about her. She's been charged with murder and I

195
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:56.879
just want to know how she thought
a sort of preemptive strike. Oh honey,

196
00:14:56.960 --> 00:14:58.600
I want you to read this book
just in case anything ever happens to

197
00:14:58.639 --> 00:15:03.759
your dad, suspicious anyone. We'll
get into that with Brad in just a

198
00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:09.600
few minutes. You're listening to wake
Up Call with Jennifer Jones Lee on demand

199
00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:13.000
from KFI Am six forty. Welcome
to your wake Up Call for a Thursday

200
00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:16.080
Friday Eve. As I like to
say, some of the stories were watching

201
00:15:16.080 --> 00:15:20.679
in the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. A twelve year old boy's been killed

202
00:15:20.679 --> 00:15:22.679
in a shooting in Long Beach.
A fourteen year old girl was hurt.

203
00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:28.159
Police say the two were walking along
Lewis Avenue late last night between Martin Luther,

204
00:15:28.279 --> 00:15:31.840
King Junior and Orange Avenues when they
were approached by at least two guys

205
00:15:31.840 --> 00:15:35.759
in a car someone started shooting.
A couple in a Bentley have been shot

206
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:41.440
at in Valley Village and what police
say may have been an attempted follow home

207
00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:43.840
robbery. The people in the car
say they were waiting for a friend yesterday

208
00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:48.519
when a guy walked up with a
gun demanded cash and jewelry. The driver

209
00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:50.799
of the Bentley backed up to try
and get away, but hit a passing

210
00:15:50.840 --> 00:15:54.519
car. A woman in that car
was hurt and that's when the shooter ran

211
00:15:54.600 --> 00:16:00.279
off. And remember the guy who
was suspected of killing Natalie Holloway, the

212
00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:06.000
American teenager in Aruba in two thousand
and five. He's expected to be extradited

213
00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:10.320
to the US to face federal fraud
charges. Now, Natalie Holloway's body was

214
00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:14.480
never found and charges were never filed
against your in Vander Salute, but he's

215
00:16:14.519 --> 00:16:19.240
charged with trying to extort money from
Natalie Holloway's family. Hey, I know

216
00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:23.320
that you've heard the rumors as we
have. There is talk about AM radio

217
00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:27.440
being removed from new cars and trucks. But if you remove that, you're

218
00:16:27.480 --> 00:16:33.519
taken away the access to the very
AM radio stations that millions of Americans count

219
00:16:33.519 --> 00:16:37.480
on for local emergency information, especially
when our cell phones are dead because maybe

220
00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:41.879
we've lost power or the tower went
down something like that. That's when AM

221
00:16:41.960 --> 00:16:48.840
radio is your lifeline. Even FEMA
and first responders across the country rely heavily

222
00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:52.720
on AM radio just to deliver public
warnings and emergencies. And that's because of

223
00:16:52.759 --> 00:16:59.279
AM radio's unmatched reach, resiliency and
because it's free. And this hits home.

224
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:02.120
I mean, do you think it's
okay for you to lose access to

225
00:17:02.200 --> 00:17:06.960
KFI when you're on the road?
Exactly? You need to make your voice

226
00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:11.039
heard on this issue. Text the
letters AM to five two eight eight six

227
00:17:11.119 --> 00:17:15.480
and tell Congress to keep AM radio
in all our cars and trucks. Standard

228
00:17:15.519 --> 00:17:21.279
message and data rates apply. Let's
say good morning now to ABC's Crime and

229
00:17:21.359 --> 00:17:26.839
Terrorism analyst Brad Garrett. Brad,
this story is fascinating to me because I

230
00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:33.119
think that any person who does almost
a preemptive strike for a murder that they

231
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:37.720
are about to commit to me feels
really dumb, and it kind of in

232
00:17:37.759 --> 00:17:42.200
this case. I want to the
woman who is involved in this, mother

233
00:17:42.279 --> 00:17:48.319
from Utah, who wrote a book
on grief to help her kids. I

234
00:17:48.319 --> 00:17:52.000
guess, should their dad ever die
and then the dad dies, it seems

235
00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:53.599
like, come on, lady,
you didn't think you were gonna get caught.

236
00:17:56.079 --> 00:17:59.680
So it's actually the other way around. She actually didn't write the book

237
00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:03.079
after she killed her or allegedly killed
her husband, and the book was written

238
00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:08.799
so her children, you know,
it talks about grief and solace and all

239
00:18:08.839 --> 00:18:15.160
these things. And to even add
another bizarre aspect to it, Jennifer,

240
00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:19.839
is that apparently there's a picture of
her deceased husband with wings on and halo

241
00:18:21.759 --> 00:18:25.680
in the book, you know,
like so her children will never forget the

242
00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:29.440
father. You know, I'm going
to guess, you know, she's sort

243
00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:33.559
of a classic anti social personality.
In other words, anybody that could do

244
00:18:33.640 --> 00:18:37.599
what's been alleged she did is beyond
cold and calculating. But then to write

245
00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:42.680
this book on top of it,
and then go on local television to promote

246
00:18:42.720 --> 00:18:48.519
the book, you know, of
the very crisis and trauma that she actually

247
00:18:48.559 --> 00:18:53.519
caused. It gives you a lot
of insight into sort of her emptiness when

248
00:18:53.519 --> 00:18:59.359
it comes to feelings about other people
emptiness. And also I've noticed sometimes that

249
00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:03.799
when you have somebody who has they
murdered a spouse or something like that,

250
00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:08.279
the ego or the hubris behind with
which they think they're smarter than everybody else

251
00:19:08.440 --> 00:19:12.279
or you know, nobody's going to
catch them. It's amazing to me how

252
00:19:12.319 --> 00:19:17.480
they, not all, but a
majority of them sort of fit into that

253
00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:25.359
profile. And one thing that goes
with antisocial personalities is arrogance and you know,

254
00:19:25.519 --> 00:19:29.720
I'm better than you, sort of
that type of thinking. So,

255
00:19:29.839 --> 00:19:32.599
I mean, if you think about
the steps that she took, that would

256
00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:37.200
be you know, from an investigator
standpoint as at how I look at cases

257
00:19:37.240 --> 00:19:38.920
to start with, you know,
I mean, she leaves, it's almost

258
00:19:38.960 --> 00:19:44.759
like Hansel and Gretel dropping crumbs along
the way thinking with this crime. And

259
00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:48.599
I mean she goes through a local
apparently a local drug dealer to buy Fenton

260
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:55.200
all she changes the life insurance policy
so that she's the sole beneficiary of which

261
00:19:55.200 --> 00:19:59.519
he figured out before she died.
He died, and he switched it to

262
00:19:59.680 --> 00:20:03.279
his sister, and apparently she didn't
know it got switched till after she killed

263
00:20:03.359 --> 00:20:07.400
him. So you know, there's
those little twists that are you know,

264
00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:11.440
in this case, they apparently argued
about some house she wanted to buy.

265
00:20:11.519 --> 00:20:14.119
She was a real estate agent for
two million dollars. He didn't think it

266
00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:18.319
was a good investment. That day
after he dies, she buys that house.

267
00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:22.759
Oh see, I mean even that, even that, even that,

268
00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:26.799
I mean, it's kind of like
she's just sort of slapping it in people's

269
00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:29.720
faces that I'm going to get by
with this. You're not going to catch

270
00:20:29.799 --> 00:20:34.240
me, and I will say,
and I don't understand why that took them

271
00:20:34.279 --> 00:20:38.160
so long. It took them a
lot of months to charge her. I

272
00:20:38.200 --> 00:20:42.319
mean, she wrote this book,
she went on television promoting this book,

273
00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:48.319
and then recently actually they arrested her. So I don't I don't know what's

274
00:20:48.319 --> 00:20:52.759
going on, because this case strikes
me as pretty being pretty straightforward, but

275
00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:59.359
it's it's bizarre. Were they possibly
just I mean, making this an airtight

276
00:20:59.480 --> 00:21:03.319
case against her, and because she
had dropped so many breadcrumbs, like you

277
00:21:03.359 --> 00:21:06.640
were saying, maybe they assumed that
she would drop, you know, I

278
00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:11.160
don't know, a whole loaf of
bread along the way, Well maybe maybe.

279
00:21:11.240 --> 00:21:15.279
And if they believed that she was
not a public safety risk to leave

280
00:21:15.279 --> 00:21:19.559
her in a community, then you
know, that's one of the reasons you

281
00:21:21.000 --> 00:21:23.799
go ahead and arrest people because you're
concerned about them harming other people. I

282
00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:26.440
guess they didn't feel that that was
the case, and I don't think there's

283
00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:33.839
any indication that she did. But
yeah, so she has a detention hearing

284
00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:36.160
I think in the next few days
to see if they're going to keep her

285
00:21:36.160 --> 00:21:38.240
in jail. Oh my gosh,
Brad, in a case like this,

286
00:21:38.359 --> 00:21:41.440
would you keep her in jail now
that all of this is out, now

287
00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:45.119
that all of these evidence is against
her, would you keep her? Would

288
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:48.880
you look at somebody like her as
a flight risk? Well? Maybe,

289
00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:55.480
and we'll see what the prosecutor argues, because you know, his family was

290
00:21:55.519 --> 00:22:00.599
apparently or is a super well known
family in Summit County, which is where

291
00:22:00.720 --> 00:22:07.559
what Park City is, Utah,
And so you know, I assume she

292
00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:11.000
had a passport. They'd have to
take her, they'd have to seize her

293
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:15.359
passport. If if you were going
to let her out, I would put

294
00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:18.920
an ankle monitor on her so you
can keep track of everyplace she goes.

295
00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:23.559
Yeah, but we'll see if if
she a threat to other people that we

296
00:22:23.640 --> 00:22:27.680
don't know, that certainly will be
discussed if it's relevant in this hearing.

297
00:22:29.000 --> 00:22:30.960
All right, Thank you so much, Brad. I appreciate your analysis.

298
00:22:32.920 --> 00:22:36.319
You're welcome set. All right,
you two talk to you later. That's

299
00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:44.480
ABC's Crime and Terrorism analyst Brad Garrett. I didn't she's watched If I should

300
00:22:44.480 --> 00:22:49.200
say, the accused woman see you
look at me being the good news girl.

301
00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:56.160
I feel that if she is the
actual killer in this case, she's

302
00:22:56.200 --> 00:23:00.880
watched way too many Lifetime movies and
not right till the end because you always

303
00:23:00.880 --> 00:23:06.680
get caught. You know, you
killed the husband, the life insurance policy

304
00:23:06.720 --> 00:23:10.119
has changed. You write a book
about grief and you put a picture of

305
00:23:10.119 --> 00:23:14.160
your husband with wings and a halo
in the book. Nobody's gonna suspect you.

306
00:23:15.880 --> 00:23:18.880
Lord, Where's Valerie Burton Elly when
we need her? LA has voted

307
00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:22.720
to ban a crime ridden homeless camp
and a two block area of Woodland Hills.

308
00:23:22.799 --> 00:23:26.359
Officials say the camp has been home
to a rape, stabbing, and

309
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:30.319
an attempted murder. Him made and
who manages Pickwick's Pub, says her restaurant

310
00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:33.960
is now closing at ten instead of
midnight to keep staff members safe. She

311
00:23:33.039 --> 00:23:37.319
says that means a loss of business, probably a good thousand a night that

312
00:23:37.400 --> 00:23:40.200
you could probably bring in, but
it's just not worth it. Staff safety

313
00:23:40.279 --> 00:23:44.160
is everything. Councilman Bob Bloominfield says
his office has worked for months to house

314
00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:47.799
people living at the camp. The
city Council voted nine to five yesterday to

315
00:23:47.839 --> 00:23:52.160
approve the band Lake trolley. Kaf
I News, we're gonna talk with Kavised,

316
00:23:52.279 --> 00:23:56.839
host of Macro Tuesday Tuesdays. How
about Sundays two to four. Jason

317
00:23:56.880 --> 00:24:00.279
Middleton is here and we've got our
bis by this morning. I want to

318
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:06.039
ask him if inflation is cooling,
which it appears to be, why aren't

319
00:24:06.039 --> 00:24:12.039
things any cheaper? And what percentage
do you think of gen zers say they're

320
00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:17.839
having to work a one regular job
and they also have to have a side

321
00:24:17.880 --> 00:24:21.240
hustle. I'll tell you what the
percentage is in just a moment. So

322
00:24:21.400 --> 00:24:23.880
Catwhether from KFI. We've got more
sunshine on the way. We're going to

323
00:24:23.920 --> 00:24:27.559
start to warm it up. And
it looks like by Saturday, Heiselby in

324
00:24:27.640 --> 00:24:33.400
the eighties to the very low nineties, you're listening to Wake Up Call with

325
00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:37.440
Jennifer Jones Lee on demand from KFI
AM six forty. Tyler's on a Disney

326
00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:42.039
cruise, of course he is.
He's going to Vancouver. I was like,

327
00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:47.119
look at you crossing country lines there
boy, So anyway, it should

328
00:24:47.119 --> 00:24:48.759
be fun for him. He'll be
back next week. But Tony, thank

329
00:24:48.799 --> 00:24:52.799
you. In the meantime, I
enjoy your musical selections. Skaf I am

330
00:24:52.839 --> 00:24:59.000
six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio
app. La County health officials say people

331
00:24:59.039 --> 00:25:03.480
at high risk for monkey pox should
get fully vaccinated before the upcoming Gay Pride

332
00:25:03.519 --> 00:25:10.160
events. And there's an experimental skin
patch that has helped toddlers who are highly

333
00:25:10.200 --> 00:25:14.640
allergic to peanuts. Jason Middleton joins
me now. He is the host of

334
00:25:14.759 --> 00:25:18.720
Macro two to four here on Sundays
he anchors. He's our business guy.

335
00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:22.960
Jason has like eighteen hats out there. There's a whole locker of different hats

336
00:25:22.960 --> 00:25:25.920
for you. I sure know it
every time. Wait a second, I

337
00:25:25.960 --> 00:25:30.640
have a locker. Cool you didn't
know. I just found my mailbox not

338
00:25:30.680 --> 00:25:33.960
too too long ago. There's a
study, Jason, that was published in

339
00:25:33.000 --> 00:25:38.240
the New England Journal of Medicine yesterday
that says this patch called Biaskin helped toddlers

340
00:25:38.279 --> 00:25:42.519
who couldn't even tolerate a small peanut
to eventually safely eat. I mean I

341
00:25:42.519 --> 00:25:47.799
would think that this is huge for
this company. Yeah, absolutely, I

342
00:25:47.839 --> 00:25:51.279
mean isn't this a persistent worry for
anybody? I mean, and I mean

343
00:25:51.359 --> 00:25:53.599
kids of course, but other people
have peanut allergies too, and but this

344
00:25:53.640 --> 00:25:57.680
one specifically addresses, you know,
youngsters and whatnot. I have a family

345
00:25:57.720 --> 00:26:03.720
member who is a doctor who specializes
in infantcare and infant surgery, specifically neurosurgery.

346
00:26:03.759 --> 00:26:07.000
Even still, he covers a lot
of this, and so with his

347
00:26:07.400 --> 00:26:11.720
with his patient Coterie, and I
find that his uh, his reports back

348
00:26:11.720 --> 00:26:15.160
about peanut allergies are always like they're
they're terrifying. And he's himself allergic to

349
00:26:15.279 --> 00:26:18.759
tree nuts, so it does Oh
yeah, I think, yeah. But

350
00:26:18.880 --> 00:26:22.240
so so that's top of my medical
professionals. They'd be great. I mean,

351
00:26:22.519 --> 00:26:23.839
I mean, to be able to
reduce the worry on the medical side

352
00:26:23.839 --> 00:26:27.119
and for the printing parenting side.
Yeah, there was I had a neighbor

353
00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:32.039
once, and there was a neighbor
down the street who used to feed the

354
00:26:32.119 --> 00:26:36.799
birds peanuts in our neighborhood. Huh, And it was maybe two houses down

355
00:26:37.039 --> 00:26:41.640
from us. Anyway, the birds
would fly and drop the peanuts shells in

356
00:26:41.640 --> 00:26:45.240
our backyards. But his daughter was
allergic to peanuts, and so he had

357
00:26:45.240 --> 00:26:48.960
to go down the street and be
like, hey, you know, it's

358
00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:51.759
great you're feeding the birds, but
can I can we feed him something else?

359
00:26:52.079 --> 00:26:56.440
Because if my daughter steps on them
or something like that, the peanuts,

360
00:26:56.759 --> 00:26:59.000
right, I had neither. So
anyway, I loved this line.

361
00:26:59.119 --> 00:27:00.799
I do too, because it's all
so rapid response to I don't know how

362
00:27:00.799 --> 00:27:04.799
it works. I mean I just
recently of patch. Yeah, so anything

363
00:27:04.799 --> 00:27:10.000
that would mitigate the impact for sure, because their unintended consequences. Your person

364
00:27:10.039 --> 00:27:12.680
wasn't trying to that neighbor wasn't trying
to hurt anybody. Everything obviously trying to

365
00:27:14.240 --> 00:27:17.079
trying to feed the birds, right, Yeah. So it was just that

366
00:27:17.240 --> 00:27:19.480
was kind of crazy, very cool. I'm surprised artificial intelligence didn't come up

367
00:27:19.480 --> 00:27:22.599
with that for us. First.
Well, I'm glad that humans are still

368
00:27:22.640 --> 00:27:26.960
coming up with stuff. Well,
but I feel like increasingly fewer and fewer

369
00:27:26.000 --> 00:27:29.480
things we are coming up with.
I want to know, though, with

370
00:27:29.559 --> 00:27:33.720
inflation cooling this week, Jason,
why in the world don't we see,

371
00:27:33.759 --> 00:27:37.960
Hey, look, inflation's cooling,
prices come down, right, fantastic point,

372
00:27:37.000 --> 00:27:41.839
and I mean the price of peanuts
remains up, unfortunately, because it

373
00:27:41.880 --> 00:27:44.799
goes back to food prices. Right, So we got a four point nine

374
00:27:44.799 --> 00:27:47.759
percent increase a year every year,
so it's a little bit better than the

375
00:27:47.799 --> 00:27:51.160
five percent we were expecting. Okay, okay, So the FED stuff,

376
00:27:51.359 --> 00:27:55.039
the interest rate hikes, the ten
hikes over the last fourteen months started to

377
00:27:55.079 --> 00:27:56.680
take effect, but not as quickly
as we had hoped, and not as

378
00:27:56.759 --> 00:28:00.880
quickly and time wise as well,
is like number wise, right, So

379
00:28:00.920 --> 00:28:04.680
things aren't coming down, and one
of the reasons is inflation. So sticky

380
00:28:04.920 --> 00:28:08.599
is food costs, right, So
there we go, Steven. Airfares are

381
00:28:08.640 --> 00:28:11.720
coming down, but it's food costs
seven okay, four point nine percent,

382
00:28:11.759 --> 00:28:15.519
that's across the board. That's like
if you put the price of everything together.

383
00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:18.799
Think about it's called the consumer price
index, right, that's the very

384
00:28:18.839 --> 00:28:22.759
core index. It's it's it's a
blunt tool, it's not very surgical,

385
00:28:23.039 --> 00:28:26.680
but it does give us an indication. Seven point seven percent is food cost

386
00:28:26.720 --> 00:28:30.400
inflation. So that gives you the
idea of the gap between like what we

387
00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:34.359
feel and what they're telling us.
And have you noticed? And I was

388
00:28:34.440 --> 00:28:37.880
shocked. I went to the grocery
store, went to Trader Joe's and I

389
00:28:37.960 --> 00:28:41.519
don't remember what it was. My
bill would say, like a hundred bucks

390
00:28:41.599 --> 00:28:45.599
or something like that. But the
next week then I was super busy eating

391
00:28:45.599 --> 00:28:52.039
out all the time. I spent
less money eating out than I did buying

392
00:28:52.119 --> 00:28:56.960
food at the grocery store for a
week. They can buy bulk, they

393
00:28:56.960 --> 00:29:00.279
can get things through the supply chain
a little bit faster. The relief is

394
00:29:00.319 --> 00:29:02.400
coming. I know. I've been
saying that for months and it's true.

395
00:29:02.440 --> 00:29:03.960
But everybody's been saying it, and
it is coming. It's just not coming

396
00:29:04.000 --> 00:29:07.680
quick enough, right. I will
say that when doing Neil Savadra's show,

397
00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:11.880
The Fork Report on Saturdays, we've
been talking about egg prices. Oh gosh,

398
00:29:11.920 --> 00:29:14.559
yeah, we've been watching those as
well. So good news to report

399
00:29:14.599 --> 00:29:18.559
there is that we're coming off an
all time high in December of twenty twenty

400
00:29:18.599 --> 00:29:22.400
with egg price or twenty twenty one
with egg prices. So the wholesale price

401
00:29:22.519 --> 00:29:26.960
is coming down faster than the retail
price. Okay, okay, So the

402
00:29:26.000 --> 00:29:30.839
retail price is the tail that wags
the dog for us because we're the consumers,

403
00:29:30.920 --> 00:29:33.720
right, But in the middle where
the wholesale prices, the wholesale markup,

404
00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:37.200
that's coming down to a point where
we're going to get back to about

405
00:29:37.240 --> 00:29:41.160
two fifty for a dozen at most
next month. Okay, so that this

406
00:29:41.200 --> 00:29:45.880
month really how the restaurants are going
to buy, so their costs they're going

407
00:29:45.960 --> 00:29:48.839
to come down there, they're coming
down. So eventually it will hit us

408
00:29:48.839 --> 00:29:51.319
too at the grocery source for sure, and not just eggs, but as

409
00:29:51.319 --> 00:29:52.880
an example, I use eggs.
Okay, got it all right? So

410
00:29:53.079 --> 00:29:59.559
I thought this is a brilliant one. Brides and grooms going to Etsy to

411
00:30:00.079 --> 00:30:03.440
register and I was thinking back,
I got a crap ton of stuff what

412
00:30:04.000 --> 00:30:08.960
I don't know thirteen years ago,
I guess on Etsy for my wedding.

413
00:30:10.079 --> 00:30:15.440
I mean everything from the napkins to
the favors too. I remember I had

414
00:30:15.440 --> 00:30:18.119
a guard that was you know how
everybody in the bride takes the garter off

415
00:30:18.119 --> 00:30:22.039
and throsday, but it was an
Atlanta Braves garter because bride is supposed to

416
00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:26.240
wear the garter. Oh did you? I guess I messed that up.

417
00:30:26.759 --> 00:30:30.920
That's on me. I think it's
a great alternative. It's like it's your

418
00:30:30.960 --> 00:30:33.240
own boutique. Yeah. I dig
it. Being able to buy niche products

419
00:30:33.279 --> 00:30:38.559
online of something we're all used to. But having having protected and verified sellers

420
00:30:38.640 --> 00:30:42.680
I think is really important. And
Etsy has an established organization there, and

421
00:30:42.720 --> 00:30:45.759
so yeah, I mean, and
plus you can find you can find fun,

422
00:30:45.799 --> 00:30:48.599
novelty things, or you can find
everything everyday things that you might need

423
00:30:48.640 --> 00:30:53.319
as well. Yeah. Absolutely,
I didn't realize how much actual shopping shopping

424
00:30:53.680 --> 00:30:56.920
you can do on Etsy, right, Like you can go find you know,

425
00:30:57.039 --> 00:31:00.440
I don't know, Dodger stuff or
whatever. And it's not even stuff

426
00:31:00.440 --> 00:31:03.680
that somebody has made. It's like
an actual old, you know, starter

427
00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:07.519
jacket or something like that on it. So you can find briding groom supplies

428
00:31:07.559 --> 00:31:11.200
if you're planning the wedding or if
you're attending the wedding, you could do

429
00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:14.640
it that way too, maybe,
I mean, I think it's I think

430
00:31:14.680 --> 00:31:17.279
it's fun. I think it's a
way to put your personal stamp on something

431
00:31:17.519 --> 00:31:19.640
as as personal as a wedding,
okay, briding groom. And of course

432
00:31:19.680 --> 00:31:23.279
this isn't because Bed Bath and Beyond
is, let's say, less less than

433
00:31:23.319 --> 00:31:30.200
wedding ready, Okay, so other
other retailers are going to honor those coupons

434
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:33.160
that Bed Bath and Beyond was really
good about sending too many of out apparently,

435
00:31:33.279 --> 00:31:37.319
and then then when you push it
past that, other stores are going

436
00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:41.480
to honor those for a while.
I think most of that stuff expires by

437
00:31:41.480 --> 00:31:44.799
the end of this month. The
reason that I'm grabbing my phone is not

438
00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:48.559
because I'm being rude, but I
just got a bed bath and Beyond coupon.

439
00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:52.640
Oh yeah, in my email there
it is. It says bed Bathroom

440
00:31:52.680 --> 00:32:00.279
Beyond store closing sale new reductions added
ten to forty percent off lowest prices.

441
00:32:00.440 --> 00:32:02.920
Find your store here, great,
so you can go there and if you

442
00:32:02.960 --> 00:32:07.599
have an old one sitting around that
says ten percent off anything you buy over

443
00:32:07.640 --> 00:32:09.319
thirty bucks or whatever, you can
take it to one of their competitors right

444
00:32:09.319 --> 00:32:14.680
now in most cases and find some
kind of deals. So they're doing they're

445
00:32:14.680 --> 00:32:16.640
doing horse trading when it comes to
these coupons as well at their competitors,

446
00:32:16.759 --> 00:32:21.400
just trying to get some customer loyalty
coming in their doors. As bed Net

447
00:32:21.440 --> 00:32:23.559
and be honest, is shedding theirs
all right and really quickly before I let

448
00:32:23.599 --> 00:32:29.200
you go. I was fascinated that
forty percent of gen zers say they have

449
00:32:29.319 --> 00:32:32.160
to work multiple jobs because of the
cost of living. So they've got a

450
00:32:32.200 --> 00:32:36.960
full time job and then they have
a side hustle as an uber driver or

451
00:32:37.000 --> 00:32:38.880
something like that. Yeah, I
think there's a lot of reasons for this.

452
00:32:38.960 --> 00:32:42.680
Obviously, it's it's unfortunate in a
way. I mean, it's cool

453
00:32:42.720 --> 00:32:46.119
if you want that freedom of doing
that, but without a national health insurance

454
00:32:46.160 --> 00:32:49.799
program like other countries have, we
don't have that here, right, so

455
00:32:49.839 --> 00:32:52.400
we have to adapt for that.
So you have to have a core your

456
00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:55.039
net for your medical insurances to come
somewhere, and then you're augmenting it.

457
00:32:55.079 --> 00:32:58.240
And it seems like the younger you
are, the more likely you are to

458
00:32:58.279 --> 00:33:00.680
have to do that. I think
older work are staying in the workforce longer,

459
00:33:00.799 --> 00:33:05.359
taking up a lot of the top
end of salaries, and so a

460
00:33:05.400 --> 00:33:10.000
lot of the company's labor costs go
towards an odor and aging workforce, and

461
00:33:10.039 --> 00:33:14.200
so it's unable to really hire either
hire new talent, more talent, or

462
00:33:14.240 --> 00:33:19.079
pay the talent that they have more. You rock, I doubt that you

463
00:33:19.319 --> 00:33:23.319
explain things. Yeah, the guarter
thing maybe if I know confident if I'd

464
00:33:23.359 --> 00:33:28.279
done that, I mean, if
he had worn the Dodgers garter, that's

465
00:33:28.279 --> 00:33:30.960
true, but I mean you're a
Dodgers fander, you're not. It's true,

466
00:33:30.279 --> 00:33:35.200
And any kind of Dodgers attire,
yeah, is appropriate at any time

467
00:33:35.279 --> 00:33:37.119
that's true, and I'm sure you
can get some on Etsy somewhere. Absolutely

468
00:33:37.160 --> 00:33:43.519
not not legally authorized by the Major
League Baseball or it is. You'd never

469
00:33:43.599 --> 00:33:45.839
know some of them are registered on
there. I'm sure. Oh yeah,

470
00:33:45.880 --> 00:33:50.319
absolutely, all right. Jason Middleton
macro two to four on Sundays. You'll

471
00:33:50.359 --> 00:33:54.200
hear him later with handle eight o'clock
and yeah, Jason's everywhere. Yeah,

472
00:33:54.240 --> 00:33:58.240
and for me all next week.
That's right, tomorrow morning, I believe

473
00:33:58.279 --> 00:34:00.039
too. Yeah, that's right.
I heard you mentioned you're headed up for

474
00:34:00.119 --> 00:34:05.440
some kind of outdoor event. Yes, that will be some bull riding.

475
00:34:05.559 --> 00:34:07.840
I will not be riding the bulldog. Are you doing the national anthem again?

476
00:34:07.920 --> 00:34:10.360
I am not. I am not
doing the national anthem. I think

477
00:34:10.440 --> 00:34:15.000
my national anthem on a horse days
are over pictures exist somewhere right, Oh,

478
00:34:15.039 --> 00:34:19.079
absolutely, I'll find some when I
come back. I'd like Matt,

479
00:34:19.079 --> 00:34:22.079
I'd like to see it. Oh
yeah, oh you guys get ready Instagram.

480
00:34:22.280 --> 00:34:27.119
Oh you guys my performing days woo. Not a costume I didn't have

481
00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:30.079
back in the day, red boots
and red cowboy hat. It was a

482
00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:34.800
full on red stetson. Wow,
well done, thank you. I know

483
00:34:35.079 --> 00:34:37.679
I went big on it. All
right, Jason Middleton, thank you.

484
00:34:37.679 --> 00:34:43.039
We'll talk with kfies. So Jason
does Macro from two to four. Right

485
00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:46.159
before him, you have Joel lars
Guard with how to Money, and we're

486
00:34:46.159 --> 00:34:50.800
going to get in with Joel in
just a second, talking about new cars

487
00:34:51.199 --> 00:34:53.800
maybe no longer part of the American
dreams, so we'll find out just how

488
00:34:53.880 --> 00:34:57.880
much those are costing right now when
we talk with him in just a few

489
00:34:57.880 --> 00:35:02.159
minutes. You're listening to Wait Call
with Jennifer Jones Lee on demand from KFI

490
00:35:02.360 --> 00:35:07.440
AM sixty kf I AM six forty
live everywhere on the iHeart Radio WAFF.

491
00:35:07.519 --> 00:35:10.679
This is your wake up call.
I'm Jennifer Jones Lee. Some of the

492
00:35:10.719 --> 00:35:15.480
stories were watching in the KFI twenty
four hour newsroom. A couple in a

493
00:35:15.599 --> 00:35:20.000
Bentley were shot at in Valley Village
in what cops they may have been an

494
00:35:20.000 --> 00:35:22.679
attempted follow home robbery. The people
in the car say they were waiting for

495
00:35:22.719 --> 00:35:27.360
a friend yesterday when a guy with
a gun walked up demanded cash and jewelry.

496
00:35:27.599 --> 00:35:30.760
But the driver of the Bentley then
hit it, put it in reverse,

497
00:35:30.039 --> 00:35:32.800
tried to get away, but then
he hit a passing car. Then

498
00:35:32.840 --> 00:35:37.400
a woman in that car was hurt
and the shooter took off. A twelve

499
00:35:37.480 --> 00:35:40.320
year old boy has been killed in
the shooting in Long Beach and a fourteen

500
00:35:40.360 --> 00:35:45.079
year old girl was hurt. Police
say the two were walking along Lewis Avenue

501
00:35:45.159 --> 00:35:49.159
late last night between Martin Luther,
King Junior and Orange Avenues when they were

502
00:35:49.199 --> 00:35:52.599
approached by at least two guys in
the car and someone inside those cars started

503
00:35:52.639 --> 00:35:58.199
shooting. Also, the man suspected
of killing American teenager Natalie Holloway and Ruba

504
00:35:58.280 --> 00:36:02.400
in two thousand and five is being
extradited to the US to face federal fraud

505
00:36:02.519 --> 00:36:07.199
charges. Here's the deal. So, Natalie Halloway's body was never found and

506
00:36:07.280 --> 00:36:10.599
charges were never filed against your in
Vander Salute. However, he is charged

507
00:36:10.639 --> 00:36:17.239
with trying to extort money from Natalie
Holloway's family. Yeah, Joel lars Guard,

508
00:36:17.360 --> 00:36:22.320
good morning to you. Joel is
the host of How To Money Sunday's

509
00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:24.760
twelve to two here on KFI.
And I'm telling you, if you're in

510
00:36:24.800 --> 00:36:29.719
the new in the market for a
new car, holy cow, just stay

511
00:36:29.760 --> 00:36:32.559
in the market for a little while
longer. Yes, I think I think

512
00:36:32.559 --> 00:36:37.679
you're right. Hold off as long
as you possibly can, because new car

513
00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:40.760
prices are through the roof, and
we're talking the average new car price hit

514
00:36:42.239 --> 00:36:46.679
forty eight thousand dollars in March,
which is just unfathomable owne factor in higher

515
00:36:46.679 --> 00:36:51.559
interest rates combined with that, we're
talking about monthly payments, you know,

516
00:36:51.639 --> 00:36:53.920
getting closer to a thousand dollars like
in the in the upper seven hundred Graine.

517
00:36:53.960 --> 00:36:59.199
So it's it's a bad time to
be out there trying to find a

518
00:36:59.199 --> 00:37:00.960
new car, you know. And
some people are thinking, like, wow,

519
00:37:01.079 --> 00:37:06.639
that's close to a rent payment anymore. Well, yeah, rents have

520
00:37:06.679 --> 00:37:08.559
gone up uite a bit too,
right, So maybe that's rent payments from

521
00:37:08.599 --> 00:37:13.719
like two thousand and six or something
like that. Yes, But but it

522
00:37:13.800 --> 00:37:15.119
is funny, like the older I
get, the more I'm like, oh,

523
00:37:15.159 --> 00:37:19.480
I remember that a car payment used
to cost a rent cost. But

524
00:37:19.559 --> 00:37:22.119
it's yeah, so but it is
true. I mean, that's how expensive

525
00:37:22.159 --> 00:37:25.599
cars are getting. And I do
worry. It's just one of these places

526
00:37:25.679 --> 00:37:30.280
where it just feels normal to buy
a new car. But it's it just

527
00:37:30.360 --> 00:37:35.320
it can't be normal if you want
to make progress with your money in other

528
00:37:35.360 --> 00:37:38.079
ways. For most people, like
I am, I feel the pain by

529
00:37:38.079 --> 00:37:40.599
the way, because I am in
the market to buy a used car.

530
00:37:40.679 --> 00:37:45.039
Mine was just rear ended total,
and so I'm trying to find something new,

531
00:37:45.280 --> 00:37:49.639
and it's tough out there to find
even a reasonably priced used car.

532
00:37:50.079 --> 00:37:53.360
So but so I just I want
people to really think long and hard if

533
00:37:53.360 --> 00:37:58.119
they if they don't have to find
a new car right now, it's just

534
00:37:58.159 --> 00:38:00.960
a great time to be holding off
as long as you can, babing the

535
00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:04.199
car that you currently have, making
the fixes and kind of making it a

536
00:38:04.239 --> 00:38:07.440
car that you're happy to drive for
at least a couple more years, because

537
00:38:07.119 --> 00:38:09.639
we don't know how long it's going
to take for the car market to return

538
00:38:09.679 --> 00:38:13.760
to normalcy, but it's still way
out of whack right now. All right,

539
00:38:13.800 --> 00:38:15.679
Well, now, if you have
to buy a new car right now,

540
00:38:15.760 --> 00:38:20.239
and you are spending nearly a thousand
bucks a month this next story,

541
00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:22.920
you're probably thinking, well, that
might be me. A quarter of Americans

542
00:38:22.920 --> 00:38:28.440
say that they have never saved money
for retirement. But I guess if you're

543
00:38:28.480 --> 00:38:31.199
somebody who's living paycheck to paycheck,
maybe you do have a lot of debt

544
00:38:31.239 --> 00:38:35.920
and now you're seeing those prices go
up, it makes absolute sense. You're

545
00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:37.800
just working to keep a roof over
your head and food on the table at

546
00:38:37.840 --> 00:38:40.880
this point. Yeah, And I
mean there are a lot of people who

547
00:38:42.159 --> 00:38:46.199
because of just the circumstances of what
they earn and with rising costs of costs

548
00:38:46.199 --> 00:38:51.519
of so many things, that it
is difficult to kind of keep up with

549
00:38:51.719 --> 00:38:53.960
inflation, and maybe their salary hasn't
kept up with it, and so they

550
00:38:54.000 --> 00:38:58.079
are living paycheck to paycheck. But
there's a whole slow of folks, and

551
00:38:58.119 --> 00:39:00.800
these are the folks I'm really trying
to reach more than a name thing who

552
00:39:00.079 --> 00:39:07.639
have the ability to really change their
own circumstances. And we're talking about buying

553
00:39:07.679 --> 00:39:09.480
that new car, Well, if
you buy a forty eight thousand dollars vehicle,

554
00:39:09.559 --> 00:39:13.960
yeah, it's going to be a
whole lot harder to save anything for

555
00:39:14.119 --> 00:39:16.400
your retirement. And so I think
a big portion of that twenty five percent

556
00:39:16.440 --> 00:39:21.639
who have never contributed anything to a
retirement account, like they could find a

557
00:39:21.679 --> 00:39:24.760
way to put a couple of percentage
points away into a workplace retirement encounter,

558
00:39:24.800 --> 00:39:28.440
into a roth IRA if they don't
have access to one of those. And

559
00:39:28.639 --> 00:39:31.239
one thing I like, Jennifer for
people to do to kind of to kind

560
00:39:31.239 --> 00:39:36.320
of identify with their future cells so
that they feel more compelled to invest for

561
00:39:36.360 --> 00:39:38.920
their future. Now is to use
something called the face app. Download the

562
00:39:38.920 --> 00:39:42.920
face app, take a picture of
yourself, and it'll generate like a visual

563
00:39:42.960 --> 00:39:45.440
image of what you're going to look
like thirty years from now. I've done

564
00:39:45.480 --> 00:39:47.519
it for myself. I'm going to
age gracefully, I think, which is

565
00:39:47.519 --> 00:39:52.280
which is wonderful. Yeah, but
I think seeing what you're going to look

566
00:39:52.320 --> 00:39:57.239
like decades down the road can help
you understand. Wait a second, I

567
00:39:57.320 --> 00:40:00.440
am going to get older and I
am going to I'm gonna need money for

568
00:40:00.559 --> 00:40:05.039
future me. And I think there's
like an empathetic sort of response that we

569
00:40:05.079 --> 00:40:10.719
intuibibly have when we see an age
diversion of ourselves that makes us more compelled

570
00:40:10.760 --> 00:40:15.840
to invest for that future person that
we now like realize is actually coming to

571
00:40:16.400 --> 00:40:19.480
It's easy to put it off and
be like, I'm never getting old,

572
00:40:19.599 --> 00:40:21.719
but the truth is we're all going
to get old, and it's important to

573
00:40:21.719 --> 00:40:24.079
start saving money for the future.
And I think that's one tangible way that

574
00:40:24.119 --> 00:40:28.079
we were more likely to do it. I have done the face tapp,

575
00:40:28.119 --> 00:40:30.480
and just for anybody out there listening, I don't care how much you bleach

576
00:40:30.559 --> 00:40:34.559
your hair that would be me to
make it not gray, or how much

577
00:40:34.599 --> 00:40:37.920
botox and filler you get also me, it doesn't matter. It's going to

578
00:40:37.000 --> 00:40:42.480
still show you. Yeah, I
mean it's it's we're all going there right.

579
00:40:42.719 --> 00:40:45.719
There's there's no way around it.
So but the more we push it

580
00:40:45.719 --> 00:40:50.280
off and assume that we won't,
the more we can justify the spending in

581
00:40:50.280 --> 00:40:54.400
the here and now and avoid kind
of it's gonna be paying one way or

582
00:40:54.400 --> 00:40:59.000
another, either now or later.
And I want people to institute on purpose,

583
00:40:59.039 --> 00:41:01.679
a little bit of painting their lives
at removing some of their current spending

584
00:41:01.719 --> 00:41:06.840
so they can set aside some money
for their future. Okay, Jason Middleton

585
00:41:07.000 --> 00:41:08.840
was just talking about AI when he
was in here, and I know that's

586
00:41:08.880 --> 00:41:14.519
been a thing that I feel like
I can't do a business report anymore,

587
00:41:14.639 --> 00:41:19.840
or even sometimes just a regular old
everyday report, you know, news report

588
00:41:20.119 --> 00:41:25.760
without AI somehow making its way into
the newscast and in this case banking in

589
00:41:27.000 --> 00:41:30.400
the metaverse. I'm not sure if
this makes me nervous. I mean,

590
00:41:30.440 --> 00:41:32.800
it feels like I could go to
chat GPT and be like, hey,

591
00:41:32.840 --> 00:41:36.679
make me a millionaire and then boom, all of a sudden, it'll be

592
00:41:36.760 --> 00:41:38.679
in my bank account. But I
guess that's not the case. Yeah,

593
00:41:38.679 --> 00:41:42.440
I mean, I think AI and
the metaverse are two different things in my

594
00:41:42.480 --> 00:41:45.000
mind, and it seems like the
metaverse, at least from my vantage point,

595
00:41:45.039 --> 00:41:51.599
has failed catastrophically, and nobody,
especially after COVID and lockdowns and time

596
00:41:51.639 --> 00:41:54.840
alone, nobody wants to spend time
in the metaverse. Sorry, And I

597
00:41:54.880 --> 00:41:58.880
would rather be out in the real
world, going on hikes, hanging out

598
00:41:58.880 --> 00:42:02.159
with friends. Right, So I'm
the metaverse is what it is, and

599
00:42:02.239 --> 00:42:06.199
I think it's going to just kind
of go away at some point. AI

600
00:42:06.320 --> 00:42:08.199
not so much, and so I'm
curious to see the impact that AI is

601
00:42:08.199 --> 00:42:12.000
going to have about our personal finances. I think at some point it really

602
00:42:12.079 --> 00:42:15.719
is going to make a big deal. And I think Turbo tax announced that

603
00:42:15.719 --> 00:42:19.920
they had some sort of back end
AI thing to help you do your taxes.

604
00:42:19.960 --> 00:42:22.719
I don't know how much that was
actual marketing or how much that was

605
00:42:22.800 --> 00:42:27.880
actually accurate. It was just kind
of helping people with really really basic tax

606
00:42:27.920 --> 00:42:31.519
circumstances file their taxes quickly, which
they can already do. But so it's

607
00:42:31.599 --> 00:42:35.679
yeah, it's interesting. I don't
know how far or how big the impact

608
00:42:35.800 --> 00:42:37.679
is going to be of AI.
It certainly seems like, based on the

609
00:42:37.719 --> 00:42:42.480
prognostications of a lot of smart tech
folks, that it could be bigger than

610
00:42:42.480 --> 00:42:45.119
the Internet. But for right now, a lot of people I've seen people

611
00:42:45.159 --> 00:42:50.360
ask chat GPD questions about their personal
finances. Sometimes it gives great information back,

612
00:42:50.440 --> 00:42:52.760
sometimes it spits out inaccurate information,
and it doesn't know kind of the

613
00:42:52.840 --> 00:42:55.679
latest news on what's happening with student
loans or something like that. So you

614
00:42:55.679 --> 00:43:00.480
do have to be careful before you're
starting to use kind of these these AI

615
00:43:00.559 --> 00:43:04.159
generated answers to you know, inform
exactly how you handle your money day to

616
00:43:04.239 --> 00:43:06.960
day. Right now, Joel,
we love you. We are so glad

617
00:43:06.960 --> 00:43:10.719
you're on KFI twelve to two on
Sundays, How to Money with Joel lars

618
00:43:10.760 --> 00:43:15.400
Guard. His podcast is how to
Money as well. Have a great weekend.

619
00:43:15.440 --> 00:43:17.960
I'll be listening, all right,
sounds good. Thanks for having me,

620
00:43:19.039 --> 00:43:22.639
Jennifer, thanks absolutely anytime. Kfi's
Joel lars Guard. I love that

621
00:43:22.679 --> 00:43:29.159
guy. He's just between him with
Jason with kind of the macro like,

622
00:43:29.320 --> 00:43:32.639
here's how all these things you hear
in the news are going to impact you.

623
00:43:34.360 --> 00:43:37.199
Then down to Joel where he does
the more lifestylee like, Hey,

624
00:43:37.199 --> 00:43:42.840
if you need a car, if
you're banking or whatever. That Sunday like

625
00:43:43.079 --> 00:43:49.119
chunk, I guess of on airtime
is so freaking educational and fun because the

626
00:43:49.119 --> 00:43:52.360
two of those guys are super fun
and crazy and but anyway, I just

627
00:43:52.400 --> 00:43:55.480
if you, yeah, if you
want to, if you want to know

628
00:43:55.559 --> 00:44:00.800
about money, but not be preached
to while it's you know, while you're

629
00:44:00.800 --> 00:44:05.800
getting your information. Those are the
two guys to listen to. And apparently

630
00:44:05.840 --> 00:44:09.119
Amy King says every day could soon
be hump day outside schools in La.

631
00:44:09.280 --> 00:44:13.320
The La City Council has approved a
motion that calls for speed humps to be

632
00:44:13.320 --> 00:44:16.719
installed outside every public school in La. The motion comes just weeks after crashes

633
00:44:16.719 --> 00:44:21.800
outside district schools left a woman dead
and two children injured. The motion would

634
00:44:21.840 --> 00:44:25.599
be similar to a speed hump installation
program at public elementary schools in Council President

635
00:44:25.639 --> 00:44:30.159
Paul Krikorian's district in North Hollywood and
surrounding areas that will be completed by the

636
00:44:30.199 --> 00:44:35.159
time school starts this fall. No
timetable and no cost estimate has been given

637
00:44:35.159 --> 00:44:37.880
for the citywide speed hump plan.
There are almost eight hundred public schools in

638
00:44:37.880 --> 00:44:45.480
the LA School District. Amy King
KFI News and Finally over and Wiser,

639
00:44:46.679 --> 00:44:53.840
Young at heart, only a big
wiser. That's General Hospital actress Jackie Zeeman,

640
00:44:53.960 --> 00:44:58.519
known for her role as Nurse Bobby
Spencer. I remember sitting in the

641
00:44:58.559 --> 00:45:02.119
living room with my mom watching General
Hospital when I was a kid. She's

642
00:45:02.199 --> 00:45:07.440
died. The executive producer of the
show says he's heartbroken to announce Seman died

643
00:45:07.519 --> 00:45:10.440
last night. He says she was
a bright light and a true professional.

644
00:45:10.519 --> 00:45:16.119
Jackie Zeman was seventy years old.
