Lots of cool stuff planned on your wake up call 15 00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:19.879 this morning. On a Friday. But let's start with some of the stories 16 00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:23.280 coming out of the twenty four hour KFI news room. Record high temperatures are 17 00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:27.319 expected for parts of La County as the heat wave moves into the weekend. 18 00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:34.040 The National Weather Services temperatures could hit a record one thirteen in Palmdale today That 19 00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:38.560 would break a record set in two thousand and seven and also in nineteen sixty 20 00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:44.040 one. Landcaster could see one hundred and fifteen. A severe excessive heat warning 21 00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:48.640 for parts of southern California starts at ten this morning and continues through Monday morning. 22 00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:51.879 In Orange County, in excessive heat warning will be in effect until eight 23 00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:57.439 pm Tuesday. The South Coast Air Quality Management District has issued an ozone advisory 24 00:01:57.480 --> 00:02:00.239 for parts of the South Coast air Basin and the Coachella Valley because of the 25 00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:05.359 heatwave. It takes effect at ten this morning and goes through Tuesday night. 26 00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:09.240 Officials say ozone levels will be highest in the Lake Arrowhead area and in the 27 00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:14.560 San Bernardino Valley. Meteorologists say temperatures over the weekend, as I mentioned, 28 00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:17.400 are going to reach the one hundreds in the Inland Empire at one tens in 29 00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:22.719 the Coachella Valley. The La Kenny Sheriff's Department says it has arrested two people 30 00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:27.080 who were looting evacuated homes in Rolling Hills Estates. The man and woman were 31 00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:30.599 seeing on a homeowner's ring camera app They called nine one one, and when 32 00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:32.919 deputies arrived, the two had already taken off. That's when torrens Pete put 33 00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:36.560 drones in the air. Put the drones up overhead and they were able to 34 00:02:36.599 --> 00:02:39.680 guide us into the heavy areas of brush. Deputy Air and Myastis says the 35 00:02:39.719 --> 00:02:43.560 two were spotted and when they got to them early yesterday morning, the man 36 00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:46.840 had a bunch of stuff. The property was then positively identified as belonging to 37 00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:51.439 one of the victims. Myasti says the couple looted at least two homes. 38 00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:58.479 Steve Gregory Kafine News LA Mayor Bass's office says a third bus of migrants from 39 00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:02.000 Texas has arrived at Union Station in downtown LA. The last drop off was 40 00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:06.960 two weeks ago. Bass's office says it found out about the latest arrival of 41 00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:12.000 migrants on Wednesday and activated a plan to take care of them when they got 42 00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:15.599 here. Belief they're looking for three people accused of robbing a mail carrier at 43 00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:20.879 gunpoint in North Hollywood. Officials say the three took off with the Postal workers 44 00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:25.199 master key Wednesday and were later seen on security video using it to steal from 45 00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:30.840 mailboxes at an apartment building. The Postal Service has offered a fifty thousand dollar 46 00:03:30.919 --> 00:03:36.639 reward for information leading to the trio's arrests. The Huntington Beach Fire Department says 47 00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:39.120 if a swimmer gets caught in a rip current, it's best to flip, 48 00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:46.360 float and follow Marine Safety. Battalion Chief Trevor McDonald says, flip on your 49 00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:50.840 back, float to conserve energy, and follow the best path to safety by 50 00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:53.280 swimming to the side away from the current. Some of the characteristics of a 51 00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:58.199 rip current is brown choppy water, so all that water comes to shore, 52 00:03:58.240 --> 00:04:00.199 it needs to find a way back out to see because there's too much water 53 00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:03.560 along the shoreline, it's gonna go kind of against the grain and it kicks 54 00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:09.159 up that sand. McDonald says they had three hundred and fifty rip current rescues 55 00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:14.039 last week. He says beachgoers can check with lifeguards or wave conditions before swimming, 56 00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:15.639 and as you can imagine, the beaches are probably going to be kind 57 00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:19.480 of crowded this week because forecasters have said, in spite of the really really 58 00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:24.240 hot temperatures that there may be a bit of a break at the beaches with 59 00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:30.879 the high hovering in the eighties. Lawsuit claims politics, not oil grounded the 60 00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:34.680 twenty twenty one Pacific Air Show in Huntington Beach, but a critic calls it 61 00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:39.480 a distraction from corruption. I don't think there was a dry eye in the 62 00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:43.519 entire place. Specific air show director Kevin Elliot recalls telling the pilots the air 63 00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:46.600 show was shut down because of the oil spill. The Blue Angels, the 64 00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:49.639 Thunderbirds, and the Canadian Snowbirds were all in one location. It was the 65 00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:54.360 biggest gathering of military air power in the history of the planet, he says. 66 00:04:54.399 --> 00:04:57.720 Former Mayor Kim Carr canceled the air show as part of an agenda Beacific 67 00:04:57.800 --> 00:05:03.279 Air Show was collateral damage as a result of somebody's political aspirations and animosity towards 68 00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:06.800 the year show and myself. Former Mayor Kim Carr says a group made the 69 00:05:06.839 --> 00:05:11.000 decision, including the police, chief, health department in Coast Guard. The 70 00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:15.759 city's priorities were to protect the health and safety of the Huntington Beach community and 71 00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:19.959 mitigate the impacts of thousands of gallons of oil car says Elliot's lawsuits just a 72 00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:26.040 distraction from a different lawsuit claiming corruption, which is four newly elected city council 73 00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:30.240 members in Huntington Beach were quick to give their political ally donor and friend a 74 00:05:30.399 --> 00:05:35.319 four point nine million dollars settlement in Huntington Beach. Corbin Carson kaf I News 75 00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:41.319 former President Trump's son in law Jared Kushner, and former aide Hope Hicks have 76 00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:46.639 testified before a federal grand jury. ABC's Jonathan carl says the panel is hearing 77 00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:49.920 an evidence about the January sixth riot at the Capitol and efforts to overturn the 78 00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:55.879 results of the twenty twenty presidential election. The special Council is specifically trying to 79 00:05:56.040 --> 00:06:02.079 establish whether Trump knew that he had lost the election and therefore knowingly committed illegal 80 00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:08.240 acts to try to overturn an election that he knew he lost. Carlos says 81 00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:12.480 several people close to Trump told him at the time that Trump knew full well 82 00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:16.120 Biden had won the election. Some airline prices have dropped two pre pandemic numbers, 83 00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:19.319 and officials say they'll be even lower this fall. Ooh, maybe a 84 00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:23.879 good time to travel. Hopper economist Hayley Bergs is now would be a good 85 00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:27.600 time to add a vacation to your post summer plans. Prices are still coming 86 00:06:27.639 --> 00:06:30.839 down from that post pandemic high, but in part because of seasonality, fewer 87 00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:34.439 people are taking vacations in September and October. We're back to school or back 88 00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:39.360 to word. Burgs says international flights are still at an all time high because 89 00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:42.639 of high fuel costs, but she says domestic flights in the US and to 90 00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:46.399 Mexico and Canada are cheaper than normal. An India's space agency says it's launched 91 00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:51.519 a lander and rover to explore the Moon's south pole. It's the country's second 92 00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:57.160 attempt. Since twenty nineteen, only the US and two other countries have landed 93 00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:01.399 a spacecraft on the Moon. Coming up twenty we're gonna be talking with Chicken 94 00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:05.160 Charlie, who you're gonna find at the Orange County Fair, which gets underway 95 00:07:05.279 --> 00:07:11.040 today. But right now it's time to say good morning to Nick polio Keine. 96 00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:14.639 We've got a crash and choes on the sixty. Yeah, good morning, 97 00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:16.160 any king checking the drive, It's gonna be pretty rough. First thing 98 00:07:16.199 --> 00:07:19.439 this morning, any eastbound before your drive as you're making away before Central, 99 00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:23.319 now it looks like it's only the far leftling that's open. Everything else is 100 00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:25.720 shut down right now due to this wreck. And you're seeing a pacton type 101 00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:29.279 drive westbound sixty as you're coming away from the seventy one, the westbound or 102 00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:31.439 rather the eastbound side of the sixty seeing delays for you from the seventy one 103 00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:34.079 and you make your way towards Central westbound. No. Six is going to 104 00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:36.879 be busy for you from Mountain. As you're making a way back toward almost 105 00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:41.879 Ramona Avenue east and westbound along the ten same rut denal freeways, you're alternate 106 00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:44.319 into the sixty east and westbound. Looks great for your drive so far this 107 00:07:44.439 --> 00:07:46.720 morning, even though there are problems being reported on the westbound side of the 108 00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:51.079 ten or before Central that have been cleared to the senator divider a motorcycle wreck 109 00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:55.519 there, but it's still going to definitely be your better alternate the ten to 110 00:07:55.600 --> 00:07:58.279 the sixty. Got an update on this issue on the sixty or anything else 111 00:07:58.319 --> 00:08:01.000 on you down pound to fifteen yourself on the word is kfy traffic westbound side 112 00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:05.279 of the ninety one before Magnolian Riverside got a flare pattern from an earlier a 113 00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:09.399 wreck. It looks like the wreck itself has long since been cleared, but 114 00:08:09.639 --> 00:08:11.040 right lane is still taking away for some cleanup work. And that's why you're 115 00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:15.519 seeing an especially heavy drive through Riverside right now, ninety one westbound from Tyler. 116 00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:18.279 As you make way towards McKinley, kay I find the sky helps get 117 00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:22.839 you there faster. I'm Nick Paul o'keiny. It's five h eight on your 118 00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:24.600 wake up call. We're saying good morning to lots of people packed with lots 119 00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:28.879 of information today. Right now, let's turn our attention to Jason Nathanson. 120 00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:35.279 Jason, you've got one hundred and sixty thousand sag After members officially on strike. 121 00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:39.679 Yeah, that's the you know, it's like a sequel in Hollywood. 122 00:08:39.679 --> 00:08:41.320 Hollywood loves a sequel. Right, So, you had the writer's strike, 123 00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:45.240 which is still on glowing. Now you have the actor's strike, which is 124 00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:48.679 strike two, and they're going to hit the picket lines today. Although a 125 00:08:48.679 --> 00:08:52.240 lot of the shag After members have already been on the picket lines and solidarity 126 00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:56.159 with the Writer's Guild, but those lines are gonna get much more crowded. 127 00:08:56.200 --> 00:09:01.200 Studying at nine today is where they're going to be. You know, they're 128 00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:05.480 gonna hit Warner Brothers, Disney, Netflix, so you can expect a lot 129 00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:09.559 of extra traffic in those areas of those studios. You can expect lots of 130 00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:13.559 extra honking in those areas of those studios. And also you'll see the sag 131 00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:18.320 after leadership out there as well, including fran Drescher, who really put on 132 00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:22.919 a show yesterday at the news conference announcing that the strike was going to happen. 133 00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:28.480 We saw some fiery language from her, including she knows. She talked 134 00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:31.879 about knowing how this strike is a hardship. It's a really big deal, 135 00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:35.480 especially for a lot of those people who are going to be out of work, 136 00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:39.720 who aren't just actors but the crew as well. She's heavy on us, 137 00:09:41.120 --> 00:09:45.720 but at some point you have to say, no, we're not going 138 00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:50.639 to take this anymore. You people are crazy. What are you doing? 139 00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:56.000 Why are you doing this? She was really really emotional, and there was 140 00:09:56.039 --> 00:10:01.399 the first sign that we had seen that these talks were really far apart between 141 00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:05.279 the studios and the actors Union. We didn't know that they were, that 142 00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:11.000 there was this level of animosity there, which was really not great, because 143 00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:15.720 it's not it doesn't seem like this is gonna end in a couple of days. 144 00:10:16.039 --> 00:10:18.320 It seems like this is going to go on for a while. So 145 00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:22.679 I was curious when they brought in the Federal mediator to say, hey, 146 00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:26.720 this is kind of a last ditch thing, which made me think, obviously 147 00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:30.519 incorrectly, that maybe they were kind of close and just had a few sticking 148 00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:33.960 points that thought maybe that the mediator could kind of get get over that. 149 00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:37.440 Hum well, we really thought when they ended the first deadline, which was 150 00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:41.519 at the end of June, and they went for an extension, a twelve 151 00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:43.480 day extension, a lot of us thought that, Okay, well, they're 152 00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:48.240 close there, because if you're gonna have an extension, you know, if 153 00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:50.639 they're far apart at that point, why not just go on strike. But 154 00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:54.759 if you ask for an extension, maybe they were close and they just needed 155 00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:58.039 a little more time to you know, dot some eyes and cross some teas 156 00:10:58.399 --> 00:11:03.919 and get get a few little things ironed out. That clearly wasn't the case 157 00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:07.759 at the news conference yesterday, Frank Drescher talked about how the fact that during 158 00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:13.559 those twelve days they basically got nothing done and then the mediator was a last 159 00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:16.480 ditch effort and also too little, too late, that they were so far 160 00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:22.279 apart by that time when Wednesday rolled around, that there was nothing a mediator 161 00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:24.559 was going to do before that deadline. And so as we were sitting there 162 00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:28.720 on Wednesday night going into Thursday morning, waiting for something to happen, and 163 00:11:28.799 --> 00:11:33.639 it hits midnight and we get no statement, and it's twelve thirty, twelve 164 00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:37.480 forty five, and then we finally get a statement around twelve twelve fifty. 165 00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:43.039 We weren't sure if maybe they actually did talk up until the very end, 166 00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:46.960 but apparently that wasn't the case. And again these sides seemed to be very, 167 00:11:48.159 --> 00:11:52.480 very far apart, which means, you know, at this point a 168 00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:54.600 lot of things are going to be threatened. We already have Comic Con which 169 00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:58.480 is next week, which the studios were already preparing for the fact that the 170 00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:03.799 actors be on strike. But Comic Con is usually a big event with all 171 00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:07.879 sorts of big people, and they announce big things and they fly in all 172 00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.639 the stars from all around the world. That's not going to happen. They're 173 00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:16.919 going to be almost no stars there. The studios aren't going to be represented 174 00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:20.600 to the extreme that they usually are. So that's the first thing that's going 175 00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:24.720 to go down. Many people think that the Emmys are going to be affected 176 00:12:24.759 --> 00:12:26.320 as well, and that's September, so that's a couple of months away. 177 00:12:26.919 --> 00:12:30.639 But you know, with the nominations announced this week, one of the things 178 00:12:30.639 --> 00:12:33.240 that Hollywood is doing right now, usually at this time of year is now 179 00:12:33.279 --> 00:12:37.399 the campaigning starts, and there's all these events and the people are out there 180 00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:41.600 trying to, you know, get their name out there and their projects out 181 00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:43.799 there. But none of that's going to happen. They're doing interviews and all 182 00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:48.200 that stuff. None of that's going to happen. All these interviews you saw 183 00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:52.279 last night, there was a premiere for and this is probably the last premiere 184 00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:56.039 you're going to see for a while. In London, there's a premiere for 185 00:12:56.080 --> 00:13:01.000 Oppenheimer, which opens next weekend, and the stars they moved it up an 186 00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:05.039 hour early because they knew this deadline was coming, so so the stars could 187 00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:09.240 actually hit the red carpet. They did Matt Damon and Christopher Nolan and Emily 188 00:13:09.240 --> 00:13:13.519 Blunt, they're all out there on the red carpet and then they got word 189 00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:16.080 that the strike Okay, it's official, it's happening. They all left before 190 00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:20.960 the screening even started, and that was probably the last red carpet you're gonna 191 00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:24.679 see for a while. Yikes. Okay, So we're gonna see these striking 192 00:13:24.679 --> 00:13:28.960 members just at the same places where all the w WGA people are striking. 193 00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:33.759 Yeah, all the same studios. Um, you know, they they're putting 194 00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:37.960 out lists every day so you can kind of track it. Today they're striking 195 00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:41.639 from nine to one, which I guess maybe they're ending at one because it's 196 00:13:41.639 --> 00:13:46.000 gonna be hot and that's yeah, it's not gonna be fun to be out 197 00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:50.600 there striking in this heat over the next few weeks for sure, but yeah, 198 00:13:50.600 --> 00:13:52.519 today is gonna be the first day. And um, you know, 199 00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:56.840 I know on their list is Warner Brothers, Disney, Netflix, Sony, 200 00:13:58.519 --> 00:14:01.879 I believe Paramount as well, and maybe a couple other places. Okay, 201 00:14:01.879 --> 00:14:03.399 and real quick before we let you go, So what does this mean for 202 00:14:03.559 --> 00:14:07.960 us? Because there's still a lot of TV shows out there, and I 203 00:14:07.879 --> 00:14:11.480 do a little feature on streaming and there's a ton of things to watch. 204 00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:16.960 So I mean, can the can the actors wait it out until the content 205 00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:20.799 runs out? Well, yeah, but the content is we're we're seeing it 206 00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:24.720 at this point. Um, you know there, there's it's starting to slow 207 00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:28.519 down. They got in a bunch of the you know, the studios knew 208 00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:31.840 that this was coming, so they got in a bunch of interviews and stuff. 209 00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:35.279 So I've you know, I've been banking interviews now for stuff that's coming 210 00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:39.799 out in August. And there's still movies and TV shows that are going to 211 00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:43.879 be coming out, but the fall season for broadcast television, that's all screwed 212 00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:46.600 up at this point. Um. A lot of this stuff was already screwed 213 00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:52.480 up from the writers strike. Uh and you know, Disney already moved stuff 214 00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:56.039 some some movies years out because of how screwed up everything is going to be. 215 00:14:56.559 --> 00:15:01.000 Um, So that's going to continue, and it's just it's a matter 216 00:15:01.039 --> 00:15:03.919 of time. The longer this continues, the more screwed up things are going 217 00:15:05.000 --> 00:15:07.320 to be. There are still some things filming. House of the Dragon, 218 00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:11.960 which is on HBO. That's the Game of Thrones prequel, that is the 219 00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:18.399 season two of that is still going to film because that's uh, that's most 220 00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:22.120 of the actors there are in equity or which is the British version, and 221 00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:26.960 they cannot actually strike in solidarity. It's against the British law for them to 222 00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:31.039 do that. So they're going to keep filming. But they're one of the 223 00:15:31.080 --> 00:15:35.399 few productions that is actually still going. That's just crazy. Okay, well, 224 00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:39.840 hunker down. Sounds like we're in for the long haul for this one. 225 00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:43.080 Yeah, that that's unfortunately that seems to be the case. I mean, 226 00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:46.480 but also fran Drescher said last night that they'll come back to the table, 227 00:15:48.080 --> 00:15:50.519 you know, at any point, including if they wanted to go back 228 00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:54.399 to the table last night to negotiate, they would. It just doesn't seem 229 00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:58.720 we thought that with the writer strike as well, but they hadn't been negotiating 230 00:15:58.759 --> 00:16:03.799 at all over the past two months. So is there any movement in the 231 00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:07.000 writers strike at all? No, because they've been focusing on first dad to 232 00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:11.799 get the Director's Guild deal done, So the negotiators for the MPTP, we're 233 00:16:11.840 --> 00:16:15.320 focusing on that, and then they jumped right into the actors negotiations as well. 234 00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:21.279 So those two sides I don't believe they've even been talking when it comes 235 00:16:21.320 --> 00:16:23.919 to the writers strike. So now they have these two guilds that they have 236 00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:27.679 to deal with and come up with some solution. They're ganging up on him, 237 00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:32.840 all right. Jason Nathanson, thanks so much for spending some time and 238 00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:36.080 sharing the information this morning. Sure thing, take care, you got it. 239 00:16:36.440 --> 00:16:40.320 As you know, today is the opening day of the Orange County Fair 240 00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:45.120 and it wouldn't be fair in Southern California if we didn't have Chicken Charlie. 241 00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:48.759 We'd like to welcome Chicken Charlie to the show. Thanks for joining us early 242 00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:52.679 this morning. Thank you so much for having me. I'm honored. Thank 243 00:16:52.679 --> 00:16:56.279 you. Okay, So, Chicken Charlie, A lot of people may not 244 00:16:56.440 --> 00:17:00.320 know your face, but I don't know anybody in Southern California who does not 245 00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:04.400 know the name Chicken Charlie. I mean, you just become infamous at fairs 246 00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:11.839 because of the lovely and really weird, bizarre fun food combinations that you offer 247 00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:15.400 at the fairs every year. So I would love to find out if we 248 00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:19.599 have anything new for the Orange County Ferret this year. Yeah, you know, 249 00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:22.039 of course, we have to have something new every year. We try 250 00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:26.400 to outdo the year before. I'm so blessed. I love what I do, 251 00:17:26.440 --> 00:17:30.599 and I love people's reactions to all the crazy new concoctions. This year, 252 00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:37.920 we have deep fried s'mores on a stick. Okay, I'm in so 253 00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:41.160 okay, let me run this down. So I take jumbo marshmallows, three 254 00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:45.200 of them, put them on a stick, and then I put a bunch 255 00:17:45.279 --> 00:17:51.680 of chocolate fudge chopped roll that into chopped up Graham crackers. Then I dipped 256 00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:56.440 that in batter, a sweet batter, and then fry it. And then 257 00:17:56.759 --> 00:18:02.400 I top it with chocolate syrup, more Graham crackers and powdered sugar. Oh 258 00:18:02.480 --> 00:18:06.440 my god. Okay, so let me tell you the first time. The 259 00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:08.440 first time I ever did that and took a bite of it, my brain 260 00:18:08.519 --> 00:18:12.240 stopped working for about three seconds. It took about two or three seconds to 261 00:18:12.319 --> 00:18:17.119 get back to work and realize where I was standing. Oh my gosh, 262 00:18:17.160 --> 00:18:21.240 that sounds so good. And so it comes out like in a big ball 263 00:18:21.319 --> 00:18:25.640 on a stick. It's like a big ball. It's like a humongous corn 264 00:18:25.720 --> 00:18:27.160 dog if you will. Oh, it looks like corn duck, but like 265 00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:30.839 double triple the sides. Yeah, because it's three marshmallows, so it's it's 266 00:18:30.839 --> 00:18:36.359 it's crazy good, Okay, And then you continue to offer some of the 267 00:18:36.440 --> 00:18:41.640 favorites of different concoctions that you've come up with over the years. Yeah. 268 00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:44.720 Absolutely, I mean we're bringing back a lot of favors. So last year 269 00:18:44.759 --> 00:18:49.119 we did a flame and hot Cheetos pot stickers were bringing that back. Of 270 00:18:49.160 --> 00:18:52.920 course, the fried Oreos I invented that. That's going to be there. 271 00:18:53.319 --> 00:18:56.519 Um. We also sell bacon wrap pickles. I also invented that, and 272 00:18:56.680 --> 00:19:00.359 along with many many of it, we got about thirty it. The Crispy 273 00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:06.319 Cream Chicken sandwich. I've had that, because I've had that, Charlie, 274 00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:10.640 it is to die for. So if you haven't, if you haven't tried 275 00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:15.279 it yet, Charlie, tell us about the Crispy Cream Chicken sandwich, Well, 276 00:19:15.640 --> 00:19:18.119 yere's the two thousand and six I think it was. I took a 277 00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:21.960 jelly filled donut and just sliced it in half and put a crispy fried chicken 278 00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:25.160 breast in the middle of it and just playing like that and just tried that 279 00:19:25.279 --> 00:19:30.000 and it was so good that since then we just can't get enough of them 280 00:19:30.039 --> 00:19:33.759 at the Krispy cream shop every day. Behind those donuts, we also sell 281 00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:37.920 it with a burger that's the triple Decker. That's three hamburger patties with three 282 00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:42.200 slices of cheese and two fold donuts. But we're bringing back a lot of 283 00:19:42.279 --> 00:19:45.440 stuff, and we also have a lot of healthy options. We also have 284 00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:49.480 the Pineapple Bowl that you could get chicken or shrimp. That's actually our number 285 00:19:49.519 --> 00:19:55.960 one cellar, and it's grilled. The chicken is grilled. We also added 286 00:19:55.960 --> 00:19:59.960 another healthier item, which is kind of weird coming from me, a Mediterranean 287 00:20:00.079 --> 00:20:07.000 salad that comes with pickled turnups, avocado of person, cucumbers, tomatoes, 288 00:20:07.039 --> 00:20:11.880 lettuce, um, hummus. And it's gonna be served with a garlic a 289 00:20:11.960 --> 00:20:15.000 garlic key yogurt sauce, a hole plain a whole yogurt with garlic. Okay, 290 00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:18.880 So that's that's really good. That's awesome because if I get the chicken 291 00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:26.119 pineapple bowl, then I can also get the deep Fried's Moore, and I 292 00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:30.559 can justify it because I had something healthy first. That's right, that's exactly 293 00:20:30.680 --> 00:20:34.480 right, or vice versa. That's exactly I think it's hilarious to come to 294 00:20:34.559 --> 00:20:38.839 the fair and get something grilled and a salad m But but people do it 295 00:20:38.880 --> 00:20:42.279 all the time. But but I think you know the fried the crazy fried 296 00:20:42.319 --> 00:20:45.640 concoctions, you know, fried twinkie, a fried oreo cookie, fried cookie 297 00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:49.160 though, those are my favorite stuff at the fair, so delicious. I 298 00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:52.359 can't wait. And I know our own Nick Poliochini's gonna be visiting you. 299 00:20:52.799 --> 00:20:56.240 I think he's gonna grab some goodies and bring him in for Mo Kelly's show 300 00:20:56.319 --> 00:21:00.559 later today because he's he's a big fan too. Um So, how many 301 00:21:00.559 --> 00:21:07.119 fairs do you do in a year? I do four fairs LA in Fresno, 302 00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:10.039 four right now? Yeah, about four months worth. Yeah, and 303 00:21:10.160 --> 00:21:11.880 um, I have a restaurant in San Diego, Chicken Charlie's Table. It 304 00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:15.480 keeps me pretty busy. I love my restaurant. I love the fairs. 305 00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:19.079 And yeah, and at Chicken Charlies in San Diego, do you offer these 306 00:21:19.079 --> 00:21:23.480 same things or is it more kind of mainstream restaurant. It's it's the mainstream 307 00:21:23.519 --> 00:21:26.359 restaurant. But we do offer the fried oreoles, the bacon wrap pickles, 308 00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:32.279 the fried avocados. Um. And we have specials, daily specials. Um. 309 00:21:32.440 --> 00:21:36.640 You can see them on Instagram or TikTok. The Chicken Charlie's um, 310 00:21:36.680 --> 00:21:38.960 but we have specials. Sometimes I'll do like some of the fair stuff, 311 00:21:38.960 --> 00:21:42.319 but I try not to do too much. Like the Krispy Clean triple decker. 312 00:21:42.359 --> 00:21:48.119 It's fifteen hundred calories there, that's a whole days. It's like it's 313 00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:52.400 it's like it's fun at the fair because you come to the fairs that one 314 00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:55.680 cheap day, if you will. Ye. The calorie counter doesn't work at 315 00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:56.680 the fairs, So I don't know. At the restaurant, I feel like 316 00:21:56.720 --> 00:21:59.799 I got to be a little bit more real with it. Okay. Now, 317 00:21:59.839 --> 00:22:03.240 if if you had to pick one of your things that you've had been 318 00:22:03.279 --> 00:22:07.839 and what's your favorite, your favorite tasting thing of all of it, fried 319 00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:11.279 orioles. It's my original invention and it's my favorite inventions. Okay, then 320 00:22:11.319 --> 00:22:17.640 there has to have been an epic fail somewhere down the line. Yeah, 321 00:22:17.680 --> 00:22:19.400 is there anything that you've tried? The latch went that. There's no way 322 00:22:19.480 --> 00:22:23.960 we were not serving that. Um. You know, frying is an art 323 00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:26.960 and you could make anything good. I don't know. I've been asked that 324 00:22:27.079 --> 00:22:30.240 question before. I can't think you I don't know. I think I could 325 00:22:30.240 --> 00:22:33.359 take I think I could make anything taste good. I'll try your wallet. 326 00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:37.359 Okay. So I'm going to leave you with that because and say that. 327 00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:41.559 Chicken Charlie says, frying is an art. You can make anything good. 328 00:22:41.559 --> 00:22:44.920 And you're going to find Chicken Charlie at the Orange County Fair, which opens 329 00:22:44.960 --> 00:22:48.480 today. Chicken Charlie, thank you so much for taking the time. Can't 330 00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:52.559 wait to come down and try some of your goodies. And I am so 331 00:22:52.680 --> 00:22:56.160 in for that deep Fried smore this year. Thank you so much for having 332 00:22:56.160 --> 00:22:59.720 me. I'm honored and I'm a big fan. Thank you. Thanks again, 333 00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:03.960 Chicken Charlie. And I will tell you it's my responsibility to try this. 334 00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:07.200 I mean, don't you think wouldn't be again? It wouldn't be fair 335 00:23:07.359 --> 00:23:10.759 if we didn't try it. Okay. So the Orange kind of Fair again 336 00:23:10.839 --> 00:23:14.359 opens today and then runs through August thirteenth. I didn't know he only did 337 00:23:14.400 --> 00:23:17.279 four fares. I thought he did that like all year long. So cool. 338 00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:22.160 Let's say good morning to our house whisper Dean Sharp. Good morning, 339 00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:26.400 Dean, Good morning, buddy. How you doing doing great? I'm cool, 340 00:23:26.519 --> 00:23:30.799 man, You're cool. That makes one of you. Yeah, Well, 341 00:23:30.839 --> 00:23:34.119 I'm gonna be cool for about another two or three hours. There you 342 00:23:34.160 --> 00:23:38.720 go. So the heat's here and you can help us stay cool during it. 343 00:23:40.440 --> 00:23:42.119 Yeah, you know, I feel like I'm the opposite of the chicken 344 00:23:42.160 --> 00:23:45.200 guy, right. I don't want you to fry today. I don't want 345 00:23:45.200 --> 00:23:52.160 to fry anybody today. Oh it's a punny day. Have you tried any 346 00:23:52.160 --> 00:23:56.839 of chicken Charlie stuff? You know, I'm not sure. I'm not your 347 00:23:56.920 --> 00:24:00.960 guy. Well, thank you, but that doesn't mean that I don't like 348 00:24:02.079 --> 00:24:04.240 some good fried food. I've spent some time in the Midwest, so you 349 00:24:04.279 --> 00:24:08.799 know, I actually have had a fried stick of butter before. I regret 350 00:24:08.839 --> 00:24:15.079 it, but I tried it. Gross, you're good a fair in the 351 00:24:15.119 --> 00:24:21.880 Midwest deep fried stick of butter. So you know, it's a thing, 352 00:24:22.039 --> 00:24:25.559 and we're gonna probably melt like butter if we don't figure out a way to 353 00:24:25.640 --> 00:24:29.519 keep our Yeah, so let's do let's dive in. What do you what 354 00:24:29.640 --> 00:24:32.400 should we do? Well, here's a thing. There's a lot. There's 355 00:24:32.440 --> 00:24:37.720 so many misconceptions about how to keep your home cool, and people do all 356 00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:40.960 sorts of crazy things. So I think I would rather I'm going to be 357 00:24:41.000 --> 00:24:44.200 spending time this weekend telling people what not to do. First thing, The 358 00:24:44.240 --> 00:24:48.079 one thing you should do for sure as we ramp into some hotter temperatures now 359 00:24:48.200 --> 00:24:55.279 this summer, is please please change the filter on your HVAC. Change the 360 00:24:55.559 --> 00:25:00.759 filter. You have basically one job to do as a homeowner with your air 361 00:25:00.759 --> 00:25:03.000 conditioner, one job, and that is to keep the filter changed out. 362 00:25:03.160 --> 00:25:06.480 Do you do that every year? How often do you do it? You 363 00:25:06.599 --> 00:25:08.640 do it? If you're doing it right, you're doing it every three months 364 00:25:08.640 --> 00:25:15.640 every season. Okay, yeah, four times a year. And a lot 365 00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:19.720 of misconceptions about the filter. It's not there for you. It's not there 366 00:25:19.720 --> 00:25:23.519 for your comfort. You know, there are some really fancy filters out there. 367 00:25:23.559 --> 00:25:26.599 You know, you can spend upwards of thirty forty dollars on an AC 368 00:25:26.799 --> 00:25:32.079 filter because they're heppa and they pull out pollen out of the I And that's 369 00:25:32.119 --> 00:25:36.480 all well and good, but you got to understand the primary purpose of a 370 00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:40.359 filter is to protect the air conditioner unit. And if it hasn't been changed 371 00:25:40.359 --> 00:25:42.599 out in a while, then your AC is not breathing the way it should 372 00:25:42.640 --> 00:25:48.680 and you're just about to ask it to do some heavy lifting and without being 373 00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:52.880 able to take a full breadth. So change the filter, and if you 374 00:25:52.079 --> 00:25:56.119 if you are terrible at remembering it, there are some really cool ways these 375 00:25:56.359 --> 00:26:00.839 I mean, set a reminder in your calendar, or better yet, get 376 00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:07.039 on a filter subscription service. There are places like filter buy dot com filter 377 00:26:07.279 --> 00:26:11.759 buy dot com where you can put in the details of the filter that you 378 00:26:11.839 --> 00:26:15.119 need, put in the regularity with which you want it changed out four times 379 00:26:15.119 --> 00:26:21.599 a year please, and then boom magically, right on your doorstep your filter 380 00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:23.319 shows up. And as soon as it does, then just change it out 381 00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:26.640 and there you go. Okay, So even if you're not using it, 382 00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:30.759 like because I don't use the air conditioner in the fall and winter, well 383 00:26:30.839 --> 00:26:34.319 maybe late fall, but generally for the winter you don't, but still do 384 00:26:34.359 --> 00:26:38.119 it every three months. Yeah, Well again it counts for the heater as 385 00:26:38.119 --> 00:26:41.359 well. It's the same filter for the same unit. So yeah, if 386 00:26:41.359 --> 00:26:45.039 you're not running the heater for an extended period of time during the winter, 387 00:26:45.160 --> 00:26:49.200 then don't worry about it. But under regular use, if the acs running 388 00:26:49.200 --> 00:26:52.839 and the heater, if air is passing through the ducts in your home, 389 00:26:53.279 --> 00:26:57.240 change the filter out every three months. Bottom line. The other thing though, 390 00:26:57.480 --> 00:27:03.839 is to understand how to drive the air conditioner the right way, and 391 00:27:03.000 --> 00:27:07.960 this is the thing that I think most people get wrong. They decide, 392 00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:10.160 well, okay, I'm leaving for the day, so I'm just going to 393 00:27:10.240 --> 00:27:14.119 turn the whole thing off because I want to save energy during a heat wave. 394 00:27:14.440 --> 00:27:17.880 Moderate temperature that's fine, But during a heat wave it's not a great 395 00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:21.720 idea to do. Okay, turn your thermostat up, get it up into 396 00:27:21.759 --> 00:27:25.680 the upper seventies, even set it at eighty degrees if you want, but 397 00:27:26.000 --> 00:27:30.640 don't turn it off completely because asking your AC to do again the heavy lift 398 00:27:30.680 --> 00:27:36.599 of starting from zero again once you get home, that's a big pull. 399 00:27:36.759 --> 00:27:38.559 It's a big pull, and it's a big pull during a time of day 400 00:27:40.000 --> 00:27:44.160 when energy is being used by everybody in the same way, and it's more 401 00:27:44.279 --> 00:27:48.039 likely to cause brownouts and all those kinds of problems. So the whole key 402 00:27:48.119 --> 00:27:56.400 with an AC system is moderate, gentle, incremental moves. So turn the 403 00:27:57.279 --> 00:28:02.279 temperature up on the thermo step, but not off completely. The other reason 404 00:28:02.599 --> 00:28:06.400 is amy one of the things that an AC unit does that a lot of 405 00:28:06.400 --> 00:28:11.880 people don't realize. One of its most important functions is it's a dehumidifier. 406 00:28:11.079 --> 00:28:17.599 It pulls moisture out of the air, but it needs time to do that 407 00:28:17.640 --> 00:28:21.559 it's not just about cooling the air, it's about pulling moisture out because human 408 00:28:21.599 --> 00:28:27.039 beings cool off as moisture evaporates from our skin. So the drier the air 409 00:28:27.400 --> 00:28:33.519 is inside your home, the cooler you will feel, even at higher temperatures. 410 00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:37.480 And we all know this sort of anecdotally because we're like, yeah, 411 00:28:37.559 --> 00:28:41.559 you know, down in the Deep South, when it's like eighty five degrees 412 00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:47.759 and ninety percent humidity, it's just awful. It feels offul when you step 413 00:28:47.799 --> 00:28:48.960 out of the shower and you dry off, and then you feel you're all 414 00:28:48.960 --> 00:28:52.720 wet again, exactly. So, just as a point of example, here, 415 00:28:53.480 --> 00:28:59.480 a seventy two degree room with thirty percent humidity feels like a seventy two 416 00:28:59.480 --> 00:29:03.759 degree room, but a seventy two degree room at eighty percent humidity feels like 417 00:29:03.799 --> 00:29:08.279 a seventy nine degree room. Okay, So drying the air, and that's 418 00:29:08.319 --> 00:29:14.759 why I would rather have your air conditioner running longer at a higher temperature, 419 00:29:14.839 --> 00:29:18.039 so that it gets a jump start on drawing out the air, because inevitably 420 00:29:18.160 --> 00:29:23.240 you'll be more comfortable in your place with the thermostat set a little higher, 421 00:29:23.519 --> 00:29:29.119 and that means a lot of reduction in cooling and energy costs in the end. 422 00:29:29.400 --> 00:29:32.079 Okay, And I'm going to give you my analogy. Are you ready 423 00:29:32.440 --> 00:29:36.599 all right? So when it comes to you, so think of your house 424 00:29:36.720 --> 00:29:41.240 as you and like a doctor will always tell you to take the aspirin like 425 00:29:41.359 --> 00:29:47.960 before your headache hits full bore, because then you keep it under control. 426 00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:52.119 So if you can absolute kind of the same thing, that's a perfect analogy. 427 00:29:52.319 --> 00:29:56.119 You just don't want to be running behind on it. You want to 428 00:29:56.160 --> 00:29:59.240 get ahead of it, okay. And by the way, getting ahead of 429 00:29:59.279 --> 00:30:04.279 it activity in your house at night that is so critical. In other words, 430 00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:08.160 I want you to think of your home as like a you know, 431 00:30:08.200 --> 00:30:11.680 a cooler that you've got, right, an igloo cooler or whatever. What 432 00:30:11.880 --> 00:30:18.160 we want to be doing at night is charging our homes with the cool air 433 00:30:18.279 --> 00:30:22.920 and cool temperatures, and then come the morning, lock it all down, 434 00:30:22.359 --> 00:30:27.319 seal it all up, and let that charge roll as long as possible into 435 00:30:27.400 --> 00:30:33.400 the day before the ac has to start to working hard to you know, 436 00:30:33.480 --> 00:30:37.680 to augment and supplement that as the heat of the day rolls on. That's 437 00:30:37.680 --> 00:30:41.599 why installation is such an important component in making your house cooler. Whether you 438 00:30:41.640 --> 00:30:45.079 have an air conditioner or not. Okay, So are you saying that, 439 00:30:45.160 --> 00:30:48.839 like, once the heat of the day is done and it's a nice cool 440 00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:51.640 evening, do you go and open up all the windows. You can open 441 00:30:51.720 --> 00:30:56.039 up all the windows. If there's cooler air outside then there is in the 442 00:30:56.079 --> 00:30:59.000 house, then by all means open up all the windows. A lot of 443 00:30:59.000 --> 00:31:02.519 people think of about having a whole house fan installed, which you can do 444 00:31:02.599 --> 00:31:06.839 for just for a few hundred dollars, and its whole job is to basically 445 00:31:07.000 --> 00:31:11.519 run at night with the windows open, sucking in intentionally that cooler air. 446 00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:15.720 You run that all night, suck in the cool air, shut those windows 447 00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:18.680 down in the morning, keep it locked in, and let it roll for 448 00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:22.480 as long as possible. Okay. And then also you say to keep the 449 00:31:22.480 --> 00:31:26.920 heat out during the heat of the day. Keep Yeah, keeping the heat 450 00:31:26.960 --> 00:31:33.000 out during the heat of the day means shutting down windows, pull the blinds, 451 00:31:33.240 --> 00:31:36.759 close the shades, especially if these are rooms that you're not in. 452 00:31:36.960 --> 00:31:40.559 I don't want you turning off closing the doors on those rooms, or shutting 453 00:31:40.559 --> 00:31:45.599 the AC register. That actually causes problems. But from the outside, what 454 00:31:45.640 --> 00:31:49.039 we want to do, in addition to we're really not trying to block visible 455 00:31:49.119 --> 00:31:52.599 light. But with the visible light comes the infrared, and that is what 456 00:31:52.680 --> 00:31:57.079 heats up the house. So draw those shades, keep the rooms dark so 457 00:31:57.160 --> 00:32:01.240 that infrared light is not pen of trading inside the room and heating things up. 458 00:32:01.599 --> 00:32:08.640 Okay, with just a a minute left. Final tip, Final tip 459 00:32:08.880 --> 00:32:15.400 I just mentioned it, don't shut down unused rooms thinking that this is going 460 00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:20.839 to maximize your air conditioning situation. I was talking to Conway about this last 461 00:32:20.920 --> 00:32:23.359 night. He's got an entire room where the doors are shut and he's taped 462 00:32:23.440 --> 00:32:27.920 over the register. I'm like, take that tape off, dude. And 463 00:32:28.000 --> 00:32:30.559 here's the problem. He's got the right idea. Everybody's got the right idea. 464 00:32:30.599 --> 00:32:32.680 They're like, listen, why do I want it? Okay? The 465 00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:37.880 problem is this, though, that change of airflow needs to happen back up 466 00:32:37.920 --> 00:32:42.680 inside the attic at the duct. Okay, So if it's an ongoing issue, 467 00:32:42.799 --> 00:32:46.079 you can have your HVAC person install a damper up there. But if 468 00:32:46.119 --> 00:32:51.680 we stop it at the register, air flows down that duct, it gets 469 00:32:51.720 --> 00:32:54.279 backed up, it backs up into the system, and it causes back pressure 470 00:32:54.279 --> 00:33:00.799 in the system that will reduce the efficiency of the airflow for the entire house. 471 00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:05.000 So as much as you don't like it as counter and two of it 472 00:33:05.079 --> 00:33:08.680 as it may feel. Open up all the registers in the house, open 473 00:33:08.799 --> 00:33:13.279 up all the interior doors of the house, and let the air flow. 474 00:33:14.039 --> 00:33:17.400 Let the airflow, all right, let it flow. Fabulous, We'll do 475 00:33:17.440 --> 00:33:22.240 it. We'll stay cool. Thanks Dean, appreciate it. Thanks Amy. 476 00:33:22.960 --> 00:33:25.319 Okay, there's all ways so much going on around the Southland, and our 477 00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:30.640 very own Nick Poliochini knows what's up, when and where and shares that with 478 00:33:30.680 --> 00:33:31.920 you every Friday night on Later with Mo Kelly. So we're gonna give you 479 00:33:31.960 --> 00:33:37.319 a little sneak peek of weekends with Nick and share a couple not to miss 480 00:33:37.359 --> 00:33:40.519 events. Nick, what's you got for us? Well, let's start out 481 00:33:40.559 --> 00:33:45.000 in Cyprus, actually at Los Alamnos Racetracks. So it's gonna be the twenty 482 00:33:45.000 --> 00:33:52.880 sixth Annual Nationals, which is yeah dog races, Weiner dog races sponsored by 483 00:33:52.880 --> 00:33:58.799 Wiener Snis And earlier this year I went to Wienerfest in Huytington Beach with Sandy 484 00:33:58.839 --> 00:34:02.240 Stack from Coast and then Mono and I went over to Sanito Racetrack to check 485 00:34:02.279 --> 00:34:06.480 out of the quirky Nationals. This is the Wiener nationals. I'm going to 486 00:34:06.599 --> 00:34:08.440 kind of call this the granddaddy of them all, if you will, for 487 00:34:08.480 --> 00:34:14.280 our animal events here in southern California. It takes place tomorrow evening at a 488 00:34:14.440 --> 00:34:20.199 Los aal Medos Racetrack insiders and you can see well pretty much they're competing for 489 00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:23.639 brigging rights and a title to be the top dog, if you will. 490 00:34:23.880 --> 00:34:29.440 But it's also an opportunity to raise money for the Seal Beach Animal Care Center. 491 00:34:29.719 --> 00:34:31.760 So last time around it it was a three hundred thousand dollars that was 492 00:34:31.880 --> 00:34:37.079 raised through the ticket sales and T shirt sales for the event, So this 493 00:34:37.239 --> 00:34:39.039 is kind of returning. A lot of these things are returning from the pandemic, 494 00:34:39.119 --> 00:34:43.480 so it's been a little bit of an unusual situation. They did do 495 00:34:43.679 --> 00:34:47.199 this as a virtual event, but now it's in person and a great opportunity 496 00:34:47.239 --> 00:34:52.079 if you've never been over to Los aal Medos Racetrack, not too far off 497 00:34:52.199 --> 00:34:54.800 of the six or five on Katella. It's really easy to get to and 498 00:34:54.840 --> 00:34:59.880 you can do anything from just going and you know, standing on a tra 499 00:35:00.199 --> 00:35:02.840 side to be able to see the competition underway. They also have some really 500 00:35:04.480 --> 00:35:08.039 cool VIP experiences that you can check out at kf I am six forty dot 501 00:35:08.039 --> 00:35:12.280 com forward slash Snake for all the details on how you can attend for that. 502 00:35:12.480 --> 00:35:15.360 Okay, quick question, Yeah, can you bet on the dogs? 503 00:35:15.519 --> 00:35:21.239 Hypothetically? No, but yes, having been to this many times before, 504 00:35:21.360 --> 00:35:23.960 there is betting that happens on it. So usually what's happening is either quarter 505 00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:30.760 horse races at Los Almos Racetrack or greyhounds. Those are illegally, you know, 506 00:35:30.800 --> 00:35:35.519 opportunities for you to place bets, but for a Wiener dog racing, 507 00:35:35.559 --> 00:35:37.239 it's not because it's more of a charity event, so they don't really allow 508 00:35:37.280 --> 00:35:39.920 for it. But I have been there several times and let me tell you, 509 00:35:39.960 --> 00:35:45.199 I see plenty of side bets that are going down a track side little 510 00:35:45.360 --> 00:35:49.320 sneaky, sneaky. Yeah, that's exactly the case. Okay, so you 511 00:35:49.400 --> 00:35:52.079 got dogs, what else we got? We got dinosaurs. So actually coming 512 00:35:52.119 --> 00:35:57.079 to two locations this weekend at Haunter Center in Anaheim and then next weekend it'll 513 00:35:57.119 --> 00:36:01.119 be Crypto dot Com Arena in downtown LA. It will be Jurassic Worldlive that 514 00:36:01.280 --> 00:36:06.800 is coming. And this is something you and I did a really cool eventum 515 00:36:07.199 --> 00:36:13.000 in Montabello area, right, and so we got to experience some really amazing 516 00:36:13.039 --> 00:36:16.639 installs of dinosaurs. This is actually taking that to the nth level and taking 517 00:36:16.679 --> 00:36:22.000 that to the next level where you'll actually be partnering with you know, paleontologists 518 00:36:22.039 --> 00:36:27.920 as well as scientists in an arena show with the dinosaurs coming to life. 519 00:36:27.960 --> 00:36:30.199 So okay, so we would the one we went to and it's like Dino's 520 00:36:30.239 --> 00:36:32.559 Alive. If you've been to that, right, and it's been it was 521 00:36:32.599 --> 00:36:36.800 out in Montabello, and it's been at a couple other places where it's like 522 00:36:36.920 --> 00:36:43.480 static displays, but they have like ginormous, ginormous brontosauruses and then of course 523 00:36:43.519 --> 00:36:47.199 the t rex, which are huge and is super really interesting to see them. 524 00:36:47.440 --> 00:36:52.840 But this then takes it and becomes a live show as opposed to just 525 00:36:52.280 --> 00:36:57.320 going and looking standing next to the big guys exactly. So you're going to 526 00:36:57.400 --> 00:37:00.960 be actually like, if you're a fan of the Drastic Park franchise, this 527 00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:05.719 is your opportunity to come nose to snout with Blew the raptor. You can 528 00:37:05.760 --> 00:37:10.639 meet Stegosaurus's Trisatops and then of course two of the most terrifying dinosaurs would be 529 00:37:10.679 --> 00:37:15.679 the Indominus Rex and then the Trantosaurus Rex. All of them are in the 530 00:37:15.679 --> 00:37:17.920 show, and so that is really cool. And it comes down to the 531 00:37:17.920 --> 00:37:22.519 fact that you're able to see these creatures. Granted, okay, you know, 532 00:37:22.559 --> 00:37:24.199 pull back the curtain. They're not, you know, back from the 533 00:37:24.239 --> 00:37:28.480 dead, but they are as close as you possibly can get to. That 534 00:37:28.519 --> 00:37:31.519 being the case, it's a great opportunity for you to come out and enjoy 535 00:37:31.559 --> 00:37:34.519 with your friends and family. I mean, look at it. We're two 536 00:37:34.519 --> 00:37:37.440 adults and when granted we're you know, we love Disneyland, but this was 537 00:37:37.519 --> 00:37:40.119 such a cool event in Montabello and this is taking that again to that next 538 00:37:40.199 --> 00:37:45.679 level where it's an actual show. You're you'll be actually experiencing those animals freely 539 00:37:45.719 --> 00:37:50.480 walking around the arena. What's really impressive is some of the dinosaurs are just 540 00:37:50.519 --> 00:37:53.840 absolutely massive, so you'll be able to see even like a Brontosaurus that is 541 00:37:53.880 --> 00:37:59.559 just towering in the arena to you know, really just get a concept of 542 00:37:59.599 --> 00:38:02.199 what it will is like to be around during that time period. But you 543 00:38:02.239 --> 00:38:06.239 know, think about if you were walking around, if you were walking around 544 00:38:06.280 --> 00:38:08.760 at the dinosaurs, you probably wouldn't been around long well during that Yeah, 545 00:38:09.199 --> 00:38:12.840 I mean that's true. I mean, but I don't know. I feel 546 00:38:12.840 --> 00:38:15.000 like landon Lost, we've got some homework from a you know, old TV 547 00:38:15.159 --> 00:38:17.480 series. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I'm saying like, I think 548 00:38:17.480 --> 00:38:21.800 we've got that homework that we've done, even though it may have been absolutely 549 00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:24.159 ridiculous, I got a good feeling about it. So I think we've survived. 550 00:38:24.199 --> 00:38:28.599 And when that When is that on? That's gonna be this weekend at 551 00:38:28.639 --> 00:38:31.199 the Honda Center in Anaheim, and then next weekend will be in downtown LA 552 00:38:31.239 --> 00:38:36.239 at Crypto dot com Arena. You can get details for that again KFI am 553 00:38:36.239 --> 00:38:39.159 six forty dot com Forward Slash Nike is where you can find out information on 554 00:38:39.159 --> 00:38:44.519 tickets and also a lot of things including one more thing to throw your way 555 00:38:44.800 --> 00:38:47.800 is going to be the forty second annual Lotus Festival happening in Echo Park. 556 00:38:47.880 --> 00:38:52.280 Now, again, these are those events that are returning, and what I 557 00:38:52.320 --> 00:38:53.920 love about them is their outdoors. Anyway. Now, granted, it will 558 00:38:53.960 --> 00:38:59.519 be warm this weekend, so maybe statement yes and make sure to put on 559 00:38:59.559 --> 00:39:02.559 the suns green and travel light and make sure that you dress light. But 560 00:39:02.840 --> 00:39:07.079 this is a celebration of the wonderful people and culture of Indonesia, and so 561 00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:10.000 it will have food, it will have music performances, and if you've never 562 00:39:10.039 --> 00:39:14.519 been to Echo Park lake, that's where this goes down. There's quite a 563 00:39:14.519 --> 00:39:17.159 few different events. Also. There will be dragon boat races that'll be happening 564 00:39:17.159 --> 00:39:20.519 out on the water, which is really cool. You'll be able to see 565 00:39:20.519 --> 00:39:24.079 those boats beforehand on the land on the dock, and then you'll be able 566 00:39:24.119 --> 00:39:29.559 to see them competing in the lake there. Okay, and Echo Park if 567 00:39:29.599 --> 00:39:32.440 you're not super familiar what you probably are, but that's where that big homeless 568 00:39:32.480 --> 00:39:35.960 camp was set up a couple of years ago, and then they tore it 569 00:39:36.000 --> 00:39:38.280 down and they put fencing up and stuff. The fencing is down now, 570 00:39:38.360 --> 00:39:44.000 the lake is beautiful and it's just such an iconic spot around La. So 571 00:39:44.039 --> 00:39:45.800 that sounds like it's really cool. Yeah, it's really cool because this is 572 00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:49.800 also one of those unique places that has those swan boats that you can go 573 00:39:49.920 --> 00:39:52.440 into, the paddle boats. So yes, they will be there. They 574 00:39:52.519 --> 00:39:54.880 may not be working because of the festival taking place in that dragon boat race 575 00:39:54.920 --> 00:39:58.679 that will be underway, but this is a great opportunity. Just like Amy 576 00:39:58.719 --> 00:40:00.519 said, it's a really fun place in the Heart of LA that you can 577 00:40:00.599 --> 00:40:05.360 visit anytime, and that is going to be put on by LA Parks and 578 00:40:05.360 --> 00:40:08.320 Wreck so it is being sponsored locally. And yeah, and there's like I 579 00:40:08.480 --> 00:40:13.199 know, kids area of food court. They'll have music performances. It really 580 00:40:13.320 --> 00:40:15.840 is a lot of fun. I have been to this in year's pass. 581 00:40:15.159 --> 00:40:19.679 It is well worth your time. And this event is free ninety nine, 582 00:40:19.719 --> 00:40:22.320 which is one of our favorites on Later with Mokelly. So there is no 583 00:40:22.320 --> 00:40:25.800 admission costs for you here. Granted, obviously the food and everything else will 584 00:40:25.840 --> 00:40:30.679 be a purchase price, but that goes down both tomorrow and Sunday. Tomorrow 585 00:40:30.679 --> 00:40:35.360 from noon until eight and then a Sunday from noon until seven. So it 586 00:40:35.400 --> 00:40:37.280 will be in the middle of the day. Again, pack your sunscreen and 587 00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:40.400 dress light. But as the day goes on it will cool off, as 588 00:40:40.480 --> 00:40:43.880 you know, the sun kind of goes down a little bit. Okay, 589 00:40:44.000 --> 00:40:49.159 So those are some sneak peaks at things that are going on this weekend, 590 00:40:49.719 --> 00:40:52.519 right, I want to give you guys a couple of sneak peaks of things 591 00:40:52.559 --> 00:40:57.000 that are coming up that you probably don't want admit.

This year's, which 602 00:41:44.760 --> 00:41:47.480 happened a couple months ago, had Luke, Brian, Kane Brown, oh 603 00:41:47.480 --> 00:41:51.440 my god love Kane Brown and Chris Stapleton.

So they say that the petrifying Haunted House will 612 00:42:30.239 --> 00:42:32.920 transport guests to Hawkins, Indiana.

I have not been to this because 616 00:42:49.519 --> 00:42:52.320 I don't love the super scary, but Nick, you do.
