WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:05.320 You're listening to camp I am six forty the Bill Handles show on demand on 2 00:00:05.360 --> 00:00:15.560 the iHeartRadio app. You know, you're just a very fun guy. I 3 00:00:15.599 --> 00:00:21.120 am a fun guy. I'm just fuzzy. I am yeah, I just 4 00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:26.320 you know not only I've often said this. The glass is always half empty 5 00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:30.000 in my life with a hole in the bottom, so water is pouring out 6 00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:34.560 the bottom. I think she meant fun guy, right, but it's like 7 00:00:34.560 --> 00:00:39.719 a mold. And now a handle on the news, Ladies and gentlemen, 8 00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:49.679 here's Bill Handle and Morning Bunday. Morning's June twenty four, and we are 9 00:00:49.759 --> 00:00:58.359 almost over with June. Summer has hit, I mean with a vengeance, 10 00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:04.560 and it is no fun. Although it's not as bad as it is the 11 00:01:04.599 --> 00:01:07.680 rest of the country. The rest of the country is kind of crazy, 12 00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:11.560 to say the least. There was an interview I saw in the news last 13 00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:18.280 night where there was some lady visiting from Las Vegas and she was in Washington, 14 00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:22.519 D C. And she was going to go visit Lincoln Memorial and the 15 00:01:22.599 --> 00:01:26.359 Washington Memorial and she was in a park in the shade and she wasn't moving. 16 00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:32.359 She said, I know one hundred and ten degrees and I live in 17 00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:38.719 Las Vegas. It's nothing compared to this. The humidity, the Schwitz, 18 00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:48.599 it's unbelievable over there. Oh real quickly, Heather, let me ask you, 19 00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:52.799 Heather Brooker, who is with us next couple of days and comes back 20 00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:59.079 with a Wednesday? I mean, do we know and Amy comes back on 21 00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:02.359 Wednesday? Right? Yes? Okay, so they come back here? What 22 00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:07.840 when do you come back? Never? Never? But thank you for bringing 23 00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:10.520 that up, Heather. I'm assuming you've been following up on weather news. 24 00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:17.280 How humid is it today? It's very humid. It's a Schmitz. It's 25 00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:22.520 a Schwitz, all right, kono. So we do not have to argue 26 00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:27.759 or we don't have to play the drop that it's hot but it's not. 27 00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:35.000 But that's not the case. It is a schwitzt and that is correct. 28 00:02:35.199 --> 00:02:38.840 And there are descriptions of what the day is going to be like, do 29 00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:43.919 we have those? Let me see it. It's not just a Schwitz. 30 00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:54.240 It's schmitz fest. Yeah, there are others too, especially Schitz that will 31 00:02:54.520 --> 00:02:59.560 tell me what that is. It's a Schwitz. That's when you go, 32 00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:05.439 that's when you're swimming in your shorts. I mean, it is right yesterday 33 00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:08.919 I mean it was hell degrees, but it was it was nice. Actually, 34 00:03:08.919 --> 00:03:12.840 I thought, yes, it was kind of nice. It was beautiful 35 00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:15.159 once you got till about five thirty years. You know, I just this, 36 00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:17.879 you know what this morning? I mean right now, I walked in. 37 00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:23.439 I have the window open in the studio here and I'm broadcasting it home 38 00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:28.000 from today today, and it is I gotta tell you, window open. 39 00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:30.439 What is it? Just after six o'clock in the morning, and uh, 40 00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:36.719 it's it's a Schwitz. Matter of fact, it's not just a Schwitz. 41 00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:45.319 It's Schwitzmageddon. Let me turn the fan on. I'll be When I came 42 00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:47.400 in at three this morning, it was very balmy. I was a little 43 00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:51.319 I was surprised. Yeah, well, I wouldn't use the word balmy. 44 00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:53.280 Hold on, man, I'm going to turn the fan on. Oh yeah, 45 00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:58.199 oh yeah, this is a real time. This is I like your 46 00:03:58.199 --> 00:04:05.039 shorts. It's not just a Schwitz. It's Schwitz Apocalypse. My favorite thing 47 00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:10.240 is how you put yourself ahead of the listener. It just is uh, 48 00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:13.960 it just shows your priorities. It does. And by the way, Heather, 49 00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:17.120 when I'm broadcasting from home, I have a shirt on just for the 50 00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:23.920 benefit of everybody here. I'm in my sports shorts and sometimes I'm commando. 51 00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:30.079 I go commando. So I mean, do you say vorts you know sports 52 00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:33.040 Schwitz. Well, that's one of the benefits of radio, I suppose, 53 00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:38.680 and just getting Yeah, if you're in commando, we can I have the 54 00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:42.720 hand the fan on high, and I get the air going past the score, 55 00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:49.120 the scroat, and it is it's very pleasant. Okay, I have 56 00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:51.839 the fan on two, but for different reasons, because I'm a middle aged 57 00:04:51.879 --> 00:04:57.319 woman and we get hot. Yeah, yeah, you get these hot you 58 00:04:57.319 --> 00:05:00.279 get the hot all right. So anyways, Heather is with us a couple 59 00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:06.279 of days. Neil, good morning, Good morning Bill, and Cono, 60 00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:16.040 good morning Gross and and good morning morning Bill. See there we go. 61 00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:19.920 We've started. See it's almost like every day is Friday. Now have you 62 00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:24.639 noticed, as it should be? Yeah, as it very well should be. 63 00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:27.720 All Right, guys, we've got plenty of news to cover on this 64 00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:32.800 Monday morning, June twenty four. Let's do it a handle on the news 65 00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:46.040 with Heather and Neil and me leave Storry. Yeah, it's definitely sits a 66 00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:50.319 rama today. Now it's going to be I don't know how crazy it is. 67 00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:57.639 Heather, just show throw out some degrees. What we're going to hear 68 00:05:59.399 --> 00:06:00.839 six? You can give us where it is, but thank you for that. 69 00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:06.360 Sorry. Yeah, that's like doing baseball scores eight to two, five 70 00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:11.839 to three. I get that those are nice scores in the Antelope Valley. 71 00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:15.439 We've got it's supposed to be nice in the central coast, but we don't 72 00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:17.839 care about them. Santa Clarita, San Fernandos, and Gabriel Valleys. There 73 00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:21.399 is a heat advisory in effect in all those areas because it is going to 74 00:06:21.439 --> 00:06:25.279 be brutally hot today. Yeah, it's going to be a switch today. 75 00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:30.000 We have to have that drop by the way, kno in and out those 76 00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:33.879 various drops because it is insane and unfortunately, I think people are gonna die. 77 00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:39.759 And that's no joke. Can you say that without laughing? No? 78 00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:44.000 I can't. But yeah, that was weird. Okay, and listen is 79 00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:47.839 I looked at the story and I'm going come on, really? So the 80 00:06:47.959 --> 00:06:57.519 National Weather Service has issued a statement of course very warm conditions will continue through 81 00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:01.839 Thursday. If this is very warm? What is hot to these people? 82 00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:10.160 I don't know the answer to that, but let me put it this way. 83 00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:15.279 Very warm is an understatement. Okay, speaking of understatements, we should 84 00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:18.759 put a thermometer in your pants and we can have scroat watch. Oh no, 85 00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:21.279 we can find out like what there you go, we see. We 86 00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:31.879 take it to what I've had in those areas and it's they're very, very 87 00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:34.680 accurate, you know that. So Heather, if you can add that to 88 00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:43.000 the list the hot zips that we are talking about, the heat watch is 89 00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:46.000 in effect. All right, let's move on Bill's pants. All right, 90 00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:50.439 father, this is a terrible transition from these the story, but there has 91 00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:54.680 been a father of four that was shot and killed on the Metro station, 92 00:07:55.360 --> 00:08:00.000 on a metro train. Specifically, it happened Friday night, thirty eight years 93 00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:03.279 one. Garcia. He got into an argument apparently with a group on the 94 00:08:03.279 --> 00:08:07.600 Metro elne at Losiennega and Jefferson. The argument continued and they all gone on 95 00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:11.279 the train and that's when police say one of the suspects shot Garcia in the 96 00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:15.040 head and he was pronounced dead. There another one on the metro training. 97 00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:20.439 At what point do people simply stop going on the metro train unless you have 98 00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:26.920 physically impossible, no possible way to get any place else and or you're homeless. 99 00:08:26.040 --> 00:08:28.879 I think we're there. I think the people that are riding the train 100 00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:35.639 now have to and riding public transit have to. And it's the worst case 101 00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:41.000 scenario. So the ads that you see from the authorities, from the government 102 00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:46.919 saying ride the train, ride public transport, it'll help the environment. Does 103 00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:52.600 anybody, even even environmentalists? Is that off the table now because you die 104 00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:56.519 when you get on a metro? Yeah, yeah, unless it's about the 105 00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:01.679 nutrients the body give the earth when you bury it, says could be. 106 00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:07.240 But I will tell you this, it's very simple. Government has two jobs, 107 00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:11.600 protect and fill potholes. Good point, good point. Neither of them 108 00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:16.519 are done here in Los Angeles. All right, gav is going to take 109 00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:24.000 the mic. You've got California residents being able to watch Governor gab Newsom State 110 00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:28.840 of the State address online this week. He continues to do these, you 111 00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:31.440 know, tries to hip it up or change it. I guess. So 112 00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:37.000 this pre recorded speech well premiere simultaneously across the office's social media channels and on 113 00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:41.039 the website. If you remember, last year he didn't give a State of 114 00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:46.320 the State address. He sent a letter out. Yeah, you can do 115 00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:50.000 that. Historically, the state of the state, and state of the Union 116 00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:54.600 and state of the city is really very interesting. It all stems from the 117 00:09:54.679 --> 00:09:58.879 US Constitution, where the president must give a state of the Union, not 118 00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:05.440 an address, but a state meant about the state of the Union. By 119 00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:09.159 the way, the Constitution says from time to time. It doesn't say annually. 120 00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:13.399 Oh but the California Constant. Yeah, the California Constitution says annually. 121 00:10:13.480 --> 00:10:18.120 But it doesn't say how you can do a letter. You can literally do 122 00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:24.879 two words, were great, and there's the state of the Union. So 123 00:10:24.399 --> 00:10:28.799 or in the state is a guy who doesn't doesn't mind cameras. It's always 124 00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:33.480 a curiosity. By the way, he's not he's just delivering it via the 125 00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:37.519 internet. On this he's just because the state of the state sucks, all 126 00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:39.600 right, Oh no, no, not to no, please, not to 127 00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:43.320 the governor. Not come on, and every president, we could be in 128 00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:48.320 the middle of a nuclear apocalypse and you're here going to Biden is going to 129 00:10:48.360 --> 00:10:52.440 say, the state of the Union is strong, and look what I did, 130 00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:54.080 and look how terrific I am. But here's what we have to do. 131 00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:58.480 Come on. So, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin net Yahoo says that the 132 00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:03.679 intense phase of the war with Hamas is about to end. However, he's 133 00:11:03.720 --> 00:11:09.240 still vowing that he's going to continue operating in Gaza until Hamas is eliminated. 134 00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:16.840 Yeah, it's not stopping, it's going on. How do you stop the 135 00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:22.840 war and still destroy Hamas without the war the final phase? I don't even 136 00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:26.440 know what that means anymore. I mean, are they just going for full 137 00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:31.519 apocalyptic destruction over there like that? Yeah, Well, it's as far as 138 00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:35.600 Hamas is concerned. Yeah, Natanyahu in the far right wing, it's at 139 00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:41.240 the war Cabinet, which is all really hardliners, those that are left, 140 00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:46.600 and yeah, they're saying we're not going we're not taking civilian targets out, 141 00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:50.159 but of course they are because Hamas is in the civilian targets. And so 142 00:11:52.759 --> 00:11:56.480 there's no good answer here at all. And Hamas will never cave as far 143 00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:01.240 as its own power is concerned. It'll never be able to Israelis will never 144 00:12:01.320 --> 00:12:05.960 be able to force comastases functioning. So they'll cut some kind of a deal, 145 00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:09.279 but there won't be much left the Gaza by the time this is over. 146 00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:13.279 Yeah, who is slowly becoming the Opera of the Middle East. You 147 00:12:13.320 --> 00:12:16.799 get a ball, and you get a ball, You get a ball. 148 00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:22.879 Yeah, all right. So gunman opened fire on places of worship, into 149 00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:30.519 cities, among other targets of Russia's southernmost Augistan providence on Sunday, killing at 150 00:12:30.600 --> 00:12:35.679 least fifteen police officers for civilians, including an Orthodox priest. Yeah, this 151 00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:39.399 is not the say it's coordinated, co ordinating. This is not Ukraine versus 152 00:12:39.480 --> 00:12:48.000 Russia. These are fanatical Muslims, terrorists versus everybody. And they happen to 153 00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:50.759 be in Russia. I mean, this province happens to have a lot of 154 00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:54.960 Muslims in it. Isn't this the second of attack of its kind recently? 155 00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:58.679 It wasn't there? Oh, there was a huge one. I mean there 156 00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:01.840 was one if you remember the video in that Yes it was in that arena 157 00:13:01.879 --> 00:13:05.759 where one hundred and fifty seven people were killed. Then you can it's a 158 00:13:05.799 --> 00:13:09.399 few months ago, right, Yeah, it was crazy. So and I 159 00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:13.720 think Isis took credit for that one. This ice is k or whatever, 160 00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:16.480 Yeah, yeah, something like that. It's just the whole world has problems 161 00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:20.200 with that one. All right, Do we want to play the baby Shark 162 00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:24.799 music here? Kono? No? All right? Shark Sightings closing Orange County 163 00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:28.919 Beaches. Surfside Beach and Seal Beach was closed on Saturday after shark was spotted. 164 00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:35.120 Seal Beach Police Department said that they're investigating. Yeah, but it was 165 00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:37.240 two hours. Yeah, it was two hours. I mean, you know, 166 00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:41.480 a shark didn't it wouldn't even have time to actually fully eat someone in 167 00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:46.200 two hours. Well, fortunately they didn't, so they're they're all clear. 168 00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:50.440 The beach is back open. Nobody was hurt, so that's good news. 169 00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:52.559 Right. So, just it's kind of boring. Be aware of your surroundings 170 00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:56.679 in the ocean people, How do you do that? For shark is swimming 171 00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:01.720 underneath you? Are you aware of your surroundings and you I am because I'm 172 00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:05.120 sitting on the beach. I'm not getting exact and you can see. Yeah, 173 00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:07.799 when do you know there's a shark in the water When someone next to 174 00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:11.399 you gets eaten or when your leg comes off. Well, if you've seen 175 00:14:11.480 --> 00:14:16.879 Jaws, it's when the screaming begins and people start being pulled underwater. But 176 00:14:16.919 --> 00:14:22.240 you think about it, what do they eat seals? Where was this? 177 00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:26.000 Yeah? Where did this take place? Beach? No? In? Where 178 00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:31.399 beach in? So that's the equivalent of handle swimming around a place called Hamburger 179 00:14:31.480 --> 00:14:35.440 or pizza Beach. Yeah? Wait, does that beach exist? Because I 180 00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:39.039 want to go to there. I know, sign me up for a cabana. 181 00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:43.080 All right. A summer carnival in Los Angeles turned deadly. Yet teen 182 00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:50.879 fatally stabs another team, and this particular carnival was sponsored by the LA Police 183 00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:54.440 Department. Just happened to be But it sounds like a sixteen year old and 184 00:14:54.559 --> 00:15:03.159 fifteen year old boy were involved. One of them was stabbed death. I 185 00:15:03.159 --> 00:15:07.840 mean, are we getting more of these or they're just we just pick and 186 00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:13.360 choose. That's what makes us a little bit of a spin because otherwise, 187 00:15:15.080 --> 00:15:18.639 you know, this is nothing of a story because we get these every day. 188 00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:22.039 You get shootings every day, so they're getting younger too. How many 189 00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:26.600 mass shootings were there over the last few days, I don't know, several 190 00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:31.039 of them around the country. It's yeah, now it's getting now. The 191 00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:35.559 question is what makes a story a story? And you're right. The only 192 00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:39.440 reason that this is a story, Neil, it was at an LAPD event 193 00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:43.480 where someone gets stabbed. There's the story, not that someone got stabbed. 194 00:15:45.039 --> 00:15:48.320 Well, we're starting to get these stories now because the difference is that they 195 00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:54.240 weren't on a metro train. Yes, yeah, good point. Solid point. 196 00:15:54.600 --> 00:16:02.720 Protesters are facing multiple charges after delaying travelers. Sixth Climate protesters stormed the 197 00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:08.200 eighteenth Green at the PGA while leaders were lining up for their putts, lining 198 00:16:08.279 --> 00:16:14.879 up their puts rather for the final hole of the PGA Tours Travelers Championship yesterday. 199 00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:18.159 Protesters they came in from all directions around the green and waved smoke bombs 200 00:16:18.159 --> 00:16:22.279 that left white and red residue on the putt and green. Before Scotti, 201 00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:27.840 Scheffler and crew finished their rounds, they had t shirts with the words no 202 00:16:29.039 --> 00:16:33.120 golf on a dead planet, just mean crazy. First of all, we 203 00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:38.039 could do a lot with their quote lining up for their puts spelled putz. 204 00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:45.639 That's one. The second point here is this is Connecticut. You know these 205 00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:52.120 guys were released after posting five thousand dollars in bail. If there were if 206 00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:56.799 this were to happen in Los Angeles, do you think anybody would get tagged 207 00:16:56.840 --> 00:17:00.840 with a five thousand dollars bail? There would be no bail, there would 208 00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:06.960 be nothing. There would be there coming in and walking right out of the 209 00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:11.799 gas out of the police station. Stopping only long enough to do a fingerprint 210 00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:17.559 and take a photo, and we're sorry for the inconvenience, or we'll try 211 00:17:17.559 --> 00:17:21.240 to move this as quickly as possible. That's what you get in Los Angeles. 212 00:17:21.400 --> 00:17:26.279 These guys, hopefully are going to get nailed for this first degree criminal 213 00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:30.720 mischief, first degree criminal trespass, and breach of peace. And I'd like 214 00:17:30.799 --> 00:17:36.960 them to see six months in jail. Saying you want to protest, and 215 00:17:37.000 --> 00:17:41.759 you want to get in the way of people's liberty and life and the ability 216 00:17:41.799 --> 00:17:45.400 to go to a golf tournament, you pay for it. Okay, So 217 00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:48.920 this is what we do. We get the whole gang here for the morning 218 00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:53.599 show, We invite listeners out, and we start protesting and blocking Trader Joe's 219 00:17:53.759 --> 00:17:59.880 and vegan restaurants, and see how these protesters like it. I'd like it. 220 00:18:00.400 --> 00:18:02.640 Oh, Trader Joe's is great. Don't do that with Trader Jose. 221 00:18:02.759 --> 00:18:07.119 No, I'm just saying, oh, Kagan restaurants, absolutely, vegan restaurants 222 00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:11.720 and Petuli oil factories, and will just block them and then they you don't 223 00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:15.839 have to worry about deodorant factories because they don't wear it, but you know, 224 00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:22.480 block something they like yeah, it's like these protests around the country in 225 00:18:22.519 --> 00:18:30.359 which the Palestinian pro Palestinian protesters are blocking entrance to their students, they're defacing 226 00:18:30.960 --> 00:18:37.039 the buildings, they're taking over various parts of the university, and everybody's pissed 227 00:18:37.079 --> 00:18:41.440 off. The university is not quote that they're not talking to them. They're 228 00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:47.759 not negotiating. You refuse to negotiate with us. Negotiate about what. Explain 229 00:18:47.799 --> 00:18:52.400 to me where WIT's they're to negotiate. You should only go up three feet 230 00:18:52.519 --> 00:18:55.160 in terms of your tagging, and not a full six feet. What are 231 00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:59.160 you doing? That's how crazy it has become good for Connecticut. I hope 232 00:18:59.200 --> 00:19:04.240 these guys. I hope these guys literally get six months at least and by 233 00:19:04.319 --> 00:19:11.000 court order sodomized by Bubba several times a day. That'll straighten them out. 234 00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:15.319 Can you order that legal? I think, well depends. Heads are what 235 00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:18.160 you're gonna need. Yeah, I would, I mean I wouldn't order that. 236 00:19:19.000 --> 00:19:25.000 Saudi Arabia said just yesterday that more than thirteen hundred people have died on 237 00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:30.680 this year's Hajj pilgrimage, and breaking it down, eighty three percent of those 238 00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:36.559 who died were what they referred to as unauthorized to perform the hajj. That 239 00:19:36.720 --> 00:19:44.240 it means they were walking long distances under direct sunlight. But they're severely elderly 240 00:19:44.359 --> 00:19:48.960 or several elderly people, chronically ill individuals. These are the people that are 241 00:19:49.039 --> 00:19:53.000 dying during this. Yeah. Also it's one hundred and twenty degrees out there. 242 00:19:53.240 --> 00:19:57.720 Now have you seen the video of what happens at the hodj? This 243 00:19:57.880 --> 00:20:04.400 is in Mecca. You've got the big building in the center, this Kaba 244 00:20:04.680 --> 00:20:10.720 or Kaba, and there's a zone that is at the corner of it that 245 00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:15.359 the pilgrims people Muslims they go to the Hajj are supposed to kiss, but 246 00:20:15.400 --> 00:20:18.720 you can't because there are hundreds of thousands of people there, so it's not 247 00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:23.119 mandatory to kiss the stone. It's been going on for millennia. And they 248 00:20:23.160 --> 00:20:27.920 go counterclockwise. The entire crowd of three hundred thousand people that you see there, 249 00:20:29.279 --> 00:20:33.720 and they have to circle it seven times, and everybody's dressed in white. 250 00:20:33.000 --> 00:20:38.640 And this is the holiest spot in all of Islam. And you're supposed 251 00:20:38.640 --> 00:20:47.039 to Muslims if they can make the hajj once in their lives, and that 252 00:20:47.359 --> 00:20:52.160 is mandatory unless you can't do it. Obviously, poor people can't go. 253 00:20:52.759 --> 00:20:57.720 But that's something that every Muslim strives for. And when you have hundreds of 254 00:20:57.920 --> 00:21:04.400 thousands of people congregating and then moving as a group around the Kabbah, let 255 00:21:04.440 --> 00:21:07.559 me tell you, it gets hotter than hell. People are crammed together. 256 00:21:07.799 --> 00:21:11.680 A few years ago, there was a real problem in that there are the 257 00:21:11.720 --> 00:21:18.519 bridges over various areas that were there was gridlock. People died, but thirteen 258 00:21:18.599 --> 00:21:22.880 hundred I don't remember thirteen hundred dying on Hajj this year. I mean, 259 00:21:22.920 --> 00:21:27.200 it is crazy. And the Saudi Arabia tries, I mean they are a 260 00:21:27.200 --> 00:21:30.240 lot of crowd control, but you know you're going to have people dying. 261 00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:37.039 It's one hundred and twenty degrees outside, so that is a tremendous amount of 262 00:21:37.039 --> 00:21:41.480 people. Shocking number of people just dying in the desert. And I have 263 00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:45.039 to say, I recover this story all morning and was totally pronouncing Hajj wrong. 264 00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:51.079 But don't worry, everyone corrected me very swiftly. So how'd you I 265 00:21:51.119 --> 00:21:55.680 don't know, my country was showing, but I was saying, Haji no, 266 00:21:55.680 --> 00:22:00.039 no, that is no, that's like an impanada. Haji is a 267 00:21:59.839 --> 00:22:03.279 little pastry thing with meat in it. Oh, by the way, that's 268 00:22:03.319 --> 00:22:07.640 not true at all. I just I was like, I just literally made 269 00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:10.839 up. I was gonna say, not only have I not heard of it, 270 00:22:10.920 --> 00:22:15.200 but it sounds still delicius. You too can have a Oh my god, 271 00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:21.160 it's it's the hodge. My apologies to all of the people who celebrate 272 00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:23.079 Hajj and also to the news director who is very upset with me. All 273 00:22:23.160 --> 00:22:27.720 right, uh us, this is a little bit of blowback for the leaf 274 00:22:27.759 --> 00:22:33.599 blowers pun intended. Hello, a little bit of controversy here in New Jersey. 275 00:22:34.119 --> 00:22:38.279 The excuse me second, Okay, I'm not dying. That just got 276 00:22:38.279 --> 00:22:45.039 weird. In New Jersey, it looks like they're considering banning statewide. They're 277 00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:51.799 considering banning leaf blowers, and it's kind of a controversy between people who don't 278 00:22:51.920 --> 00:22:56.359 like the gas powered ones versus the battery powered ones. The leaf blowing industry 279 00:22:56.400 --> 00:23:02.920 says the battery powered ones are not as effective, but people who want the 280 00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:08.359 band say that the gas powered leaf blowers aren't good for pollution, and they 281 00:23:08.400 --> 00:23:11.799 aren't good where people live and where children should be illegal. To begin with, 282 00:23:12.079 --> 00:23:17.039 Yeah, you know, has anybody ever seen a broom and a big 283 00:23:17.119 --> 00:23:22.640 broom and a dust pan. You know those do exist. I have to 284 00:23:22.680 --> 00:23:26.039 say, I wish that if they're going to keep the leaf blowers, I 285 00:23:26.079 --> 00:23:29.720 wish that everybody would get on the same leaf blowing schedule, because in my 286 00:23:29.839 --> 00:23:34.079 neighborhood there are leaf blowers going off every single day of the week, every 287 00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:41.839 morning, every day. That should be a round out the gunfire in my 288 00:23:41.920 --> 00:23:45.599 neighborhood. So it's kind of a nice change. Tell you, it's more 289 00:23:45.640 --> 00:23:49.559 expensive, it's much more expensive to use batteries, it's inefficient, and yeah, 290 00:23:49.559 --> 00:23:53.160 it would be better if you had a vacuum, but a broom and 291 00:23:53.240 --> 00:23:57.119 a dust pan is not going to do it, will Well, Okay, 292 00:23:57.119 --> 00:24:00.200 how I know you do this yourself all the time? Oh yeah, you 293 00:24:00.240 --> 00:24:04.680 know, yeah, I certainly do. I hit that old leaf blower every 294 00:24:04.720 --> 00:24:08.440 week. They should have. I mean, what they're arguing, which is 295 00:24:08.519 --> 00:24:14.039 legitimate, is that the gas powered ones, even though they're more powerful, 296 00:24:14.119 --> 00:24:17.119 I mean, look at the pollution, look at the noise. They should 297 00:24:17.160 --> 00:24:22.880 have nuclear these because now nuclear motor's nuclear engines are so small they can put 298 00:24:22.920 --> 00:24:26.640 them in leaf blowers or completely silent at least the engine part of it. 299 00:24:29.559 --> 00:24:32.160 Wow, that's a great idea. I have to look into that. It's 300 00:24:32.200 --> 00:24:37.359 like a nuclear powered submarine, a nuclear powered leaf blower. Doesn't that this 301 00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:41.839 is what this I tell you? Sounds safe? Yeah, sure, sounds 302 00:24:41.839 --> 00:24:45.400 good to me. I've seen those old test explosion videos. It pretty much 303 00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:51.519 cleans the block. Yeah. It certainly does nothing better than Donald Trump speaking 304 00:24:51.559 --> 00:24:56.279 to a group of evangelicals. What a match. So he said to them 305 00:24:56.359 --> 00:25:00.559 they cannot afford to sit on the sideline in the twenty twenty four election, 306 00:25:02.240 --> 00:25:07.640 imploring them at one point to go and vote Christians please. Yeah. And 307 00:25:07.680 --> 00:25:11.960 then he also endorsed displaying the Ten Commandments in school and elsewhere. While speaking 308 00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:18.079 to a group of these influential politically, he was commenting on Louisiana just passing 309 00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:25.839 a law that says the Ten Commandments must be displayed in every classroom in the 310 00:25:25.880 --> 00:25:33.960 state, all public schools, in nice, big letters. So he is 311 00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:37.559 endorsing that. Now I have a question when you look at the Ten Commandments 312 00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:42.839 and Trump endorsing that, it is questionable as to nine of them. Okay, 313 00:25:44.599 --> 00:25:48.720 I think number seven Trump has a real problem with thou shall not commit 314 00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:55.039 adultery. So maybe he just bypasses one, and Trump says, I believe 315 00:25:55.079 --> 00:25:57.640 in the publication of the Nine Commandments. What do you think he just goes 316 00:25:57.680 --> 00:26:02.480 through and goes nope, Yeah, just check some off. This one's bad. 317 00:26:02.839 --> 00:26:07.960 Yeah, I could do better. Nope, that's true. I like 318 00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:12.039 to see that. All right. This is a really heartbreaking story that happened 319 00:26:12.039 --> 00:26:18.599 at Wild Rivers water Park in Irvine. A young boy died after a medical 320 00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:23.000 incident. It happened outside of the pool. We don't have a lot of 321 00:26:23.039 --> 00:26:27.279 details when what exactly happened. He was twelve years old, enjoying the water 322 00:26:27.359 --> 00:26:33.799 park this weekend and he passed away. And we don't know what it is. 323 00:26:33.839 --> 00:26:36.400 We just know that it wasn't water related. That's what the park is 324 00:26:36.400 --> 00:26:38.599 saying, Yeah, which seems to indicate there was. Are they going to 325 00:26:38.640 --> 00:26:42.960 say natural causes? And we don't know natural causes with a twelve year old. 326 00:26:44.119 --> 00:26:47.279 I mean, obviously it's heart problems. It's something going on, and 327 00:26:47.319 --> 00:26:49.640 it does happen. You could have had an allergic reaction, could be you 328 00:26:49.759 --> 00:26:52.359 just don't know at this point, or we don't know. Really sad, 329 00:26:55.839 --> 00:27:00.680 all right. Democrats in California have agreed to delay a minimum way agent increase 330 00:27:00.759 --> 00:27:06.039 for about four hundred and twenty six thousand healthcare workers because they need to balance 331 00:27:06.039 --> 00:27:10.119 the state budget. Now. Of course, Governor Gavin Newsom doesn't have a 332 00:27:10.119 --> 00:27:15.519 problem forcing that minimum wage hike on others, but he can't afford it, 333 00:27:15.559 --> 00:27:18.440 so they're pushing it off from yeah, we can't afford it. And as 334 00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:22.480 far as the healthcare workers, we're talking about twenty five dollars per hour up 335 00:27:22.480 --> 00:27:25.400 to the next decade, So you know, you don't know how long that's 336 00:27:25.400 --> 00:27:29.079 going to take. Now, that's going to be delayed, delayed and delayed. 337 00:27:29.440 --> 00:27:33.440 And I'm going to talk a little bit about healthcare workers and their connection 338 00:27:33.599 --> 00:27:38.759 to the topic that I am going to do, and that's at where's that 339 00:27:38.839 --> 00:27:49.519 going to be? I think? Let me see seven thirty wow, seven 340 00:27:49.640 --> 00:27:52.279 thirty. I was just trying to figure out where he goes because it's sort 341 00:27:52.319 --> 00:27:56.119 of connected peripherally, and I just wanted to somehow put that together, and 342 00:27:56.160 --> 00:28:00.920 I didn't do a wonderful job. Okay, let's move on to American Paul 343 00:28:00.039 --> 00:28:07.799 Wheelan has now surpassed two thousand days in Russian custody. He told CNN he's 344 00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:12.480 urging the Biden administration to take some more decisive action to help secure his release 345 00:28:12.599 --> 00:28:18.759 and fellow detained American Evan Gerkovich. I hope I'm saying that correctly. He 346 00:28:18.920 --> 00:28:25.200 has been declared wrongfully detained by the US State Department and was arrested in Moscow 347 00:28:25.599 --> 00:28:30.839 in December of twenty eighteen and sentenced to sixteen years in prison on espionage charges 348 00:28:30.200 --> 00:28:34.559 and has consistently and vehemently denied those charges. Yeah, there's a problem with 349 00:28:34.640 --> 00:28:40.480 the Americans being being locked up over there. Britney Griner got out after eight 350 00:28:40.559 --> 00:28:45.640 or nine months, but she was not accused of espionage. These two are 351 00:28:47.680 --> 00:28:56.440 certainly Paul Wheelan straight out espionage, and then you have you've got Evan who 352 00:28:56.680 --> 00:29:00.799 has been accused of I guess spying. Also, one is es manage, 353 00:29:00.839 --> 00:29:03.160 one is straight out spines. So we're not going to see them anytime soon, 354 00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:11.880 unfortunately. All Right, Hollywood business owners are rightfully upset. They're frustrated 355 00:29:11.960 --> 00:29:18.200 after planters that were installed to keep homeless encampments from growing were ordered to be 356 00:29:18.279 --> 00:29:25.599 removed by the city. So if you pee and poop on the streets and 357 00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:29.440 put your garbage everywhere and set up tents, that's okay. But if you 358 00:29:29.519 --> 00:29:34.160 put planters and trees. Now, these are the businesses that are putting planters 359 00:29:34.200 --> 00:29:38.720 in trees to keep those people off. I realize that, but that gets 360 00:29:40.000 --> 00:29:42.079 the city boomed. They're right there, I say, they cover them in 361 00:29:42.240 --> 00:29:48.519 tents and they put human feces around them, and the city will assume that 362 00:29:48.559 --> 00:29:53.839 they're They can rightfully be there.
