00:00:00.680 --> 00:00:05.919
You're listening to KFI AM six forty
wake Up Call with Me Amy King on

2
00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:18.320
demand on the iHeartRadio app out let. All this commercialism ruin my Christmas KOSTHD

3
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:23.160
two Los Angeles Sorange County. I'll
take the solutree home and decorated. I'll

4
00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:29.280
show it really will work in our
plan. I never thought it was such

5
00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:36.119
a bad little tree. It's not
bad at all. Really, maybe it

6
00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:41.479
just needs a little love. Johnnie
Brown is a blockhead, but he did

7
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:45.840
get a nice tree. It's time
for your morning wake up call, Mary

8
00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:55.719
Christmas Y Brown. Here's Amy King. It's five o'clock on your wake up

9
00:00:55.759 --> 00:01:00.280
call, Monday, December eleventh.
I'm Amy King, ready to start your

10
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:07.000
work week. I love the Charlie
Brown Christmas. I have a Charlie Brown

11
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:11.640
Christmas tree, and I heard that
kno has one too. I do,

12
00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:15.280
and you have more than that I
have. So I have a snoopy or

13
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:23.280
or a snoopy lawn decoration like an
inflatable, an inflatable and a light that

14
00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:26.840
he's on top of the mailbox and
woodstock is coming out of the of the

15
00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:30.239
mailbox. It opens up cute and
then me and my daughter have magic Peanuts

16
00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:34.239
sweats She loves Snoopy. Oh aren't
you the cutest? That's so fun.

17
00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:38.719
I love seeing all the decorations and
people dressing up. I got on my

18
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:44.400
I've got another Disney sweatshirt on.
That's see, it's my Christmas candy cane

19
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:48.840
Disney year by not, but I
do so. It's the week before the

20
00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:52.159
week before Christmas, and I do
have a tree update for you. Last

21
00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:57.599
week I told you that I bought
my two hundred dollars Christmas tree and it

22
00:01:57.719 --> 00:02:00.159
just sat there in my house.
And I'm finally on Friday after I took

23
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:02.599
my nap on Friday afternoon, I
was like, all right, it's time.

24
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:07.959
So I did decorate and it's beautiful
and very happy about that. Hey,

25
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:10.039
and guess what. It's going to
be a blue Christmas for show?

26
00:02:10.039 --> 00:02:21.520
Hey. O'tani signing with the Dodgers
seven hundred million dollars ten year contract and

27
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:23.960
the kicker to this, I just
think it's yeah. I know he's an

28
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:29.080
amazing player. He's not even gonna
pitch until twenty twenty five, but he

29
00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:31.639
is expected to play an opening day
of twenty twenty four. I did read

30
00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:36.360
that it's nearly five hundred thousand dollars
per game that he makes. Oh my

31
00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:40.080
god, it's more than I'm making
like twenty years to most people. Yeah,

32
00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:43.560
yeah, I do think The cool
thing, uh, ConA and I

33
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:46.039
were talking about this kind of a
cool thing about it is that the way

34
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:51.639
that he structured it, he doesn't
get most of the money until the end

35
00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:57.360
of a contract, which frees up
the Dodgers to still spend the money so

36
00:02:57.400 --> 00:03:00.599
they can continue to get players because
he would take up such a huge chunk

37
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:05.080
of their allocation or what is it
whatever, the the money that they can

38
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:10.439
spend before they hit the cap.
So I'm excited great that he's turning blue.

39
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:15.400
Here's what's ahead on wake up call. Fire crews have surrounded about fifty

40
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:20.520
percent of a wind driven fire in
Ventura County. The fires burned twenty seven

41
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.719
hundred acres since it started Saturday.
Evacuation orders near Santa Paula have been lifted,

42
00:03:23.759 --> 00:03:27.599
but residents in the area have been
warned to be ready to get out

43
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:31.240
again if needed. Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyah, who says it's the beginning

44
00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:36.879
of the end for Hamas, who
says dozens of militants have surrendered as Israel

45
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:39.800
continues to pound the Gaza strip.
Netanyahu says it'll take more time, but

46
00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:45.520
his message to Hamas is it's over. A new Wall Street Journal poll shows

47
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:53.039
former South Carolina Republican Governor Nikki Hayley
would beat President Biden by seventeen points in

48
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:59.199
a hypothetical matchup, but Hailey still
trails former President Trump by more than forty

49
00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:03.039
percent in recent polling for the Republican
nomination. Let's get started with some of

50
00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:06.240
the stories coming out of the KFI
twenty four hour newsroom. We mentioned the

51
00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:12.360
fire in Ventura County that evacuation orders
have been lifted. There's a brush fire

52
00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:16.000
also burning in Cabazon. It burned
about sixty five acres on Saturday. It's

53
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:21.720
eighty percent surrounded. It started and
was pushed by winds. The fire spread

54
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:28.680
stopped by late Saturday afternoon. La
Kenny Sheriff's investigators have asked for the public's

55
00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:32.279
help to find three women who stole
about fifteen thousand dollars worth of clothing and

56
00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:36.839
shoes from a store in Calabasas.
The burglary at feature happened the day after

57
00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:42.199
Thanksgiving. Officials they security video shows
the woman as they entered the store and

58
00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:46.920
started grabbing merchandise. They took off
in a white Oudi with no license plates.

59
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:50.560
Former President Trump has canceled his plans
to testify a second time in his

60
00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:55.800
civil fraud trial in New York.
He posted on his truth social platform that

61
00:04:55.879 --> 00:05:00.439
he will not be testifying today as
originally planned. His reasons in included the

62
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:04.199
testimony of its expert witnesses and alleged
bias by the judge overseeing the case.

63
00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:09.319
He also says he already testified in
November and has nothing more to say other

64
00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:15.240
than that the case is election interference. Closing arguments are set for January eleventh,

65
00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:17.360
and a written decision in the case
could come later in the month.

66
00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:21.720
Now, let's say good morning to
ABC's Jim Ryan. Jim, this is

67
00:05:21.800 --> 00:05:27.000
just a heartbreaking case. Tell us
about the woman who has sued to get

68
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:29.680
an abortion, why she did it, and what's kind of happened so far,

69
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:31.199
Because there's been a lot of movement
in a very short period of time,

70
00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:33.959
right, and we're still waiting for
some movement in this case. Ammy.

71
00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:38.680
Yes, last week, a woman
named Kate Cox, who lives here

72
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:44.160
in the Dallas area, went to
the a District Court in Texas. Her

73
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:47.879
physicians had told her that her baby, her fetus twenty weeks into this pregnancy,

74
00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:53.160
has a fatal anomaly, meaning she's
either going to be stillborn or will

75
00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:57.360
live a very short life after that
because of these abnormalities. What's more,

76
00:05:57.360 --> 00:06:01.079
of those physicians told her that Kate
Cox her own health was in jeopardy.

77
00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:06.000
She's had two previous c sections and
this case, this pregnancy, this problem

78
00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:12.319
pregnancy, if the heart were to
stop, could have some serious consequences either

79
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:15.319
for Kate Cox's life or her fertility, her ability to have kids in the

80
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:20.720
future. So the attorneys, the
doctors went to the district court. Now

81
00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:24.680
last week, the district court said, yes, you can go ahead and

82
00:06:24.720 --> 00:06:30.240
have this despite the restrictions under Texas
law. This Texas Supreme Court, though,

83
00:06:30.279 --> 00:06:32.319
at the urging of the state Attorney
General, stepped in and said no,

84
00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:34.040
no, no, no, we're
going to put a hold on that.

85
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:39.040
We will issue a firm reading,
but for now everything is on hold,

86
00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:43.040
so we're waiting for the next step
that comes from the Texas Supreme Court.

87
00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:46.360
Iman. Okay, so the Supreme
Court hasn't issued a ruling yet.

88
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:49.759
They just put a stay on it
exactly right. The temporary restraining order,

89
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:54.360
they've said, no, we're going
to pause that. Tro do not get

90
00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:58.920
this abortion yet. But because we're
going to have a final ruling at some

91
00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:02.199
point, then both sides, the
plaintiff, side the defendants, the state,

92
00:07:03.399 --> 00:07:06.120
the Cox family, they all said
that the time is of the es

93
00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:09.560
and so we have to hope that
the Supreme Court is going to have some

94
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:14.360
ruling soon, right, And because
she's more than twenty weeks along, so

95
00:07:14.399 --> 00:07:17.160
she's got like what eighteen nineteen weeks
left to go. Okay, yeah,

96
00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:20.279
exactly so. And some of said, well, you know, why don't

97
00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:25.560
you just go to a state?
Something like twenty states now have restrictions similar

98
00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:29.199
to those here in Texas. Texas
has kind of been a boilerplate for other

99
00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:33.680
state legislatures and so many of them
nearly have now have a similar fetal heartbeat

100
00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:35.879
law. People have said, well, why don't you just go to a

101
00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:41.399
different state. Kate Cox says that
under Texas law, if she meets the

102
00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:44.879
exceptions that are in the law,
she shouldn't have to go anywhere else.

103
00:07:44.879 --> 00:07:47.839
Her attorneys have said the same thing. So that's what we're waiting for.

104
00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:54.360
Does her case really the heart of
the matter here, Amy is this does

105
00:07:54.439 --> 00:07:59.079
a lethal feel anomaly, a fetal
anomaly like the one that Kate Cox's feet

106
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:05.160
us have. Does that qualify Kate
Cox or any pregnant patient under Texas restrictions

107
00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:11.439
for an abortion. She's kind of
in a gray area. It's not absolutely

108
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:16.959
certain that her life would be jeopardized
by carrying this baby forward. The baby's

109
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:20.839
life certainly is not. There won't
be quality to it, if there's any

110
00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:24.160
life at all. So but at
the same time, the state is saying,

111
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:28.480
no, this doesn't meet the requirements. So because of the condition that

112
00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:33.240
the baby have, even if the
baby survived, you're saying that the baby

113
00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:35.879
would have no quality of life,
something like a ninety five percent fatality rate

114
00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:41.440
within the first year. And again, doctors say that normally the ends in

115
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:45.759
a stillbirth or a life that lasts
a few hours, maybe a few days.

116
00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:48.039
But yes, about five percent do
make it to the first year.

117
00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:52.840
Okay, And if the court does
end up ruling against her, she could

118
00:08:52.879 --> 00:08:56.840
still go to another state. She
could. Yes, last week, when

119
00:08:56.879 --> 00:08:58.720
the lower court ruling said go ahead
and you can get the abortion, she

120
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:03.759
could have gone and gotten the abortion
immediately. The state Attorney General Ken Paxton

121
00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:07.480
wrote an open letter to doctors and
to hospitals saying, well, if you

122
00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:13.159
do this, you're still subject to
potential lawsuits or losing your license or this

123
00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:16.120
sort of thing. So, yeah, she it gives Kate Cox the option

124
00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:20.919
to either have the abortion here,
have the abortion elsewhere, not have abortion,

125
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:24.720
the abortion at all. And you
just think that this case could be

126
00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:28.399
kind of a flashpoint because it could
go one of actually three ways. Right,

127
00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:31.840
she's forced to carry the term,
the baby dies, she can't have

128
00:09:31.879 --> 00:09:35.799
more children. Tragic, Right,
she goes somewhere else terminates the pregnancy,

129
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:41.320
or she has to carry to term, and somehow or another the baby survives,

130
00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:43.320
but then, like you said,
doesn't have a quality of life.

131
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:48.799
So it's like there's just it's like
a no win situation. Yeah, I

132
00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:52.919
mean, it's a tragic situation all
the way around. And her, you

133
00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:56.200
know, Kate Cox has been quite
vocal about it. Only she did not

134
00:09:56.320 --> 00:10:01.279
want to be the poster child for
the taxes of abortion law or against the

135
00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:03.679
Texas abortion law. Two weeks ago, everything was great as she and her

136
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:07.240
husband were looking forward to having their
third child. Well, along came this

137
00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:13.600
diagnosis of this trisomy eighteen, which
is a serious chromosomal anomaly, and suddenly

138
00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:16.879
their lives are turned upside down.
There's no happy ending to this at all.

139
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:22.039
Yeah. Absolutely, And you're in
Texas. What is the sentiment about

140
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:26.360
this law because it is one of
the strictest in the country. Well,

141
00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:30.320
it is, you know, And
I think that the state legislature can read

142
00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:33.240
the tea leaves. They know generally
how their constituents are going to feel about

143
00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:37.159
things like this, and so I
think that's why they've gone all in on

144
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:43.399
this kind of really restrictive abortion law. And again, other states have kind

145
00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:48.159
of taken this up and used it
as their own template for their own abortion

146
00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:52.200
laws, you know, to replace
Texas with Kentucky, or with Florida,

147
00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:56.639
or with Arkansas. And while you've
got your law written, yeah, and

148
00:10:56.679 --> 00:11:01.480
while I think that this specific circumstance
is more of an outlier than like a

149
00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:07.080
regular abortion case, it just it's
just tragic on all ends. There's no

150
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:09.279
happen Like you said, there's no
happy ending here, but we will be

151
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:11.759
watching it. And thank you so
much for the information. Very helpful.

152
00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:15.519
Thanks you all right, take care, Jim. Let's get back to some

153
00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:18.519
of the stories coming out of the
KFI twenty four our newsroom. A driver

154
00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:20.799
has been killed in a wrong way
crash in the Baldwin Hills area of la

155
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:26.480
Police say the man was driving southbound
in northbound lanes of Los Sienega Boulevard late

156
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:30.279
last night. A man and woman
in one of the cars he hit was

157
00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:33.519
taken to the or war taken to
the hospital. A Jewish man in his

158
00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:37.480
seventies has been attacked on his way
to synagogue. The first was a shock.

159
00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:43.720
There was a huge hard knock on
my forehead here that was really enraged,

160
00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:48.360
not because of the thing, because
I was heated a Jew, release

161
00:11:48.360 --> 00:11:52.559
say the forty four year old man
who allegedly attacked him yelled anti Semitic statements

162
00:11:52.639 --> 00:11:56.279
during the attack. The man's been
arrested and is facing assault with the deadly

163
00:11:56.360 --> 00:12:01.000
weapon, attempted robbery, a hate
crime, and elder abuse. Israeli forces

164
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:05.600
have been fighting Palestinian militants in Gaza's
two largest cities. People in one of

165
00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:09.519
those cities say the situation is extremely
difficult and that no place is safe.

166
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:15.519
ABC's Justin Finch says civilian infrastructure may
be on the brink of collapse. Israeli

167
00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:20.759
forces now claim they've killed seven thousand
Hamas fighters since the war began, but

168
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:26.159
at a heavy cost. More than
eighteen thousand Palestinians have died, according to

169
00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:30.360
the Hamas run health Ministry, and
he says nearly eighty five percent of Gaza's

170
00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:33.799
population is said to have been displaced. Israel has pledged to keep fighting until

171
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:39.679
it removest Has from power, dismantles
its military, and returns all of the

172
00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:45.360
hostages still held. Since October seventh, Santa Claus has taking some time out

173
00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:50.120
of his busy schedule to spread some
holiday cheer around Riverside. He'll be riding

174
00:12:50.159 --> 00:12:56.240
along with the Riverside Fire Department from
six to eight tonight through Thursday, six

175
00:12:56.279 --> 00:13:00.799
to eight each night and again next
Tuesday through Thursday. It's the twenty six

176
00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:05.679
annual Santa Ride along the fire truck
Key's on. We'll be making stops so

177
00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:09.799
people can get photos with San Santa
and the Jolly Old Elf. Will also

178
00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:13.600
be handing out candy canes to kids. Mom, Dad, don't even think

179
00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:18.639
about it show Hey Otani is turning
blue. The former Angels, Slugger and

180
00:13:18.679 --> 00:13:22.879
Pitchers signed a seven hundred million dollar
ten year deal with the La Dodgers.

181
00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:26.440
The Dodgers have been trying to get
Otani since he graduated from high school,

182
00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:28.399
but he went and played for a
Japanese league instead, and then they tried

183
00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:33.559
again in twenty eighteen, but Otani
went to the Angels. Now he's ours.

184
00:13:33.080 --> 00:13:37.080
We'll be talking more about this on
Handle on the News coming up at

185
00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:41.360
six oh five. The state is
investing thirty million dollars in fifteen projects to

186
00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:46.960
protect people against weather emergencies. Governor's
climate change is wiping out entire towns from

187
00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:52.399
the map, and this should help. The projects include adding a second road

188
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:54.440
in and out of Paradise, which
was destroyed by a fire a couple of

189
00:13:54.519 --> 00:14:00.559
years ago. The waiting game is
on for two people to come forward to

190
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:03.759
claim their share of a three hundred
and ninety five million dollar Mega Million's jackpot.

191
00:14:05.320 --> 00:14:09.679
Both tickets for Friday night drawing were
sold at the Chevron on Ventura Boulevard

192
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:16.440
in Ensino. Let's now say good
morning to ABC's Jordana Miller in Jerusalem.

193
00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:20.639
Now, Jordana, we're hearing from
Benjamin Netanyahoo that he's saying the beginning of

194
00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:24.960
the end has begun and is saying
that Hamas militants are starting to surrender.

195
00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:31.120
Right. Well, we saw over
the weekend lots of videos circulating both on

196
00:14:31.159 --> 00:14:39.519
the Israeli news and on social media
platforms of dozens of men a stripped to

197
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:48.279
their underwear, some blindfolded, handcuffed, some turning over weapons, being led

198
00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:54.559
off somewhere to be Later we were
told, questioned these were videos that were

199
00:14:54.559 --> 00:14:58.039
put out by Israeli soldiers, but
not through the official channels of the Israeli

200
00:14:58.120 --> 00:15:03.960
army. And it turns out that
now there's been a lot of criticism.

201
00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:09.440
Uh. First of all, Israel
obviously wanted to show that how Gaza and

202
00:15:09.519 --> 00:15:13.960
fighters are surrendering. Uh. And
that's where we also, you know,

203
00:15:15.080 --> 00:15:18.159
heard from the Prime Minister who said
just surrender, don't die for Yachtasinoir.

204
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:24.559
That's Hamas's militant leader, who Israel's
you know, he's the top of Israel's

205
00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:30.080
wanted list. But on the other
hand, these photographs and videos, you

206
00:15:30.120 --> 00:15:35.320
know, they're very you know,
dehumanizing for Palestinians. Uh. They you

207
00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:39.480
know, they they look like,
you know, there could be some kind

208
00:15:39.519 --> 00:15:45.679
of abuse going on there as well. So these are these were the basically

209
00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:48.279
the Prime minister's advisor in the end
said, you know, these pictures,

210
00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:52.639
these pictures don't serve anyone. We're
not going to see more of these,

211
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:56.960
uh, you know, And even
the chief spokesman for the Israeli Army said,

212
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:02.960
you know these photograph of these images. You know, we do we

213
00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:07.000
strip people because we believe they might
have explosive devices. But it makes sense

214
00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:10.399
like this, Yeah, it makes
sense, but maybe don't show it.

215
00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:15.159
Yeah, yeah, there, you
know, the civil there are civilians in

216
00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:18.559
there. They should be dressed,
and they are dressed, he said,

217
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:23.080
and then let go. So that
was I think a blunder on the Israeli

218
00:16:23.200 --> 00:16:29.360
armies part. Nonetheless, it does
show that some parts of the northern Gaza

219
00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:33.879
strip now are really coming under almost
full Israeli control, while they continue to

220
00:16:33.960 --> 00:16:41.360
fight intensely in Southern Gaza in han
units that battle far from one. It

221
00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:45.840
will be a few weeks of intense
fighting there, okay. And there is

222
00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:51.879
talk that that in the Southern Gaza
city on unis as you mentioned that some

223
00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:56.159
of the leaders may be hiding in
tunnels there and also hostages may be being

224
00:16:56.200 --> 00:17:02.320
held there. That's right, I
mean, Israel believes that Yehsinoar the head

225
00:17:02.360 --> 00:17:07.359
of Hamas and the man who masterminded
the October seventh attack. He is believed

226
00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:11.519
to be hiding in the tunnel network
under Han Yunis. And it's likely that

227
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:17.759
the one hundred and thirty seven hostages
that are still being held, albeit twenty

228
00:17:17.799 --> 00:17:22.039
at least a Israel knows are dead
or just bodies, they are likely there

229
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:26.920
as well in southern Gaza. So
you know, Israel's mission, it has

230
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:32.359
said from the beginning, is twofold. One to dismantle Hamas from the Gaza

231
00:17:32.359 --> 00:17:37.440
strip, push it out, and
two to bring the hostages home. We

232
00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:42.640
have not heard of any real momentum
again on talks for a new seafire,

233
00:17:44.279 --> 00:17:47.839
though it has to be said the
talks have never really ended the doors open.

234
00:17:47.920 --> 00:17:52.240
There just hasn't really been much progress. And Hamas today threatening that you

235
00:17:52.279 --> 00:17:57.759
know, they won't agree to any
release of the hostages except on their terms.

236
00:17:59.279 --> 00:18:03.319
But it look like they're putting those
terms on the table in a realistic

237
00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:06.400
fashion. Not now, okay,
And I don't know if you have the

238
00:18:06.440 --> 00:18:10.000
answer to this, Jordana, but
I was thinking about this. You know,

239
00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:14.000
Christmas is just two weeks away.
We're in the middle of Hanukkah.

240
00:18:14.119 --> 00:18:18.440
But do we know how the war
is going to affect Christmas celebrations in Bethlehem,

241
00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:23.880
which is in the West Bank right
right, Well, the West Bank

242
00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:30.160
has been I mean there have been
nightly Israeli army rates throughout the West Bank

243
00:18:30.559 --> 00:18:34.039
and hundreds of people have been arrested, hundreds that are linked to Hamas,

244
00:18:34.160 --> 00:18:40.799
hundreds that are not. They're props
aligned with other militant groups. But there's

245
00:18:40.799 --> 00:18:45.079
no question that the atmosphere and the
celebration of Christmas this year is going to

246
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:51.759
be different here in places like Bethlehem
and the Old City, in the Church

247
00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:56.599
of the Holy Sepulcher, primarily because
they're just you know, with the war

248
00:18:56.640 --> 00:19:00.839
going on. Usually there's tens of
thousands of pilgrims that here come here to

249
00:19:00.920 --> 00:19:07.400
the Holy Land for Christmas celebration,
and this is you know, you know,

250
00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:10.640
if you're thinking of a place to
visit over Christmas, you know,

251
00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:15.000
war time Israel not probably on that
list. Yeah. I just I remember

252
00:19:15.160 --> 00:19:18.759
seeing the images of Manger Square during
the pandemic, where like you said,

253
00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:22.839
normally there's just tens and tens of
thousands of people there and it's an amazing

254
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:26.839
place to be and then during the
pandemic it was empty, and I was

255
00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:30.880
just curious what it might be like
this year. Yeah, I think it's

256
00:19:30.880 --> 00:19:33.920
going to be. It'll also be
subdued. Look, even Hanuka, it's

257
00:19:34.079 --> 00:19:40.000
eight nights. There's a lot of
nights of celebration, and it's very subdued

258
00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:44.759
here as well. All Right,
Jordana, thank you so much for the

259
00:19:44.799 --> 00:19:48.240
information and the insight. As always, we appreciate it. Okay, Tucksan,

260
00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:51.720
all right, take care. Let's
get back to some of the stories

261
00:19:51.720 --> 00:19:53.640
coming out of the KFI twenty four
hour newsroom. A person has been killed

262
00:19:53.680 --> 00:19:57.279
in a shooting at a party in
San Pedro. It happened just after midnight

263
00:19:57.359 --> 00:20:02.400
yesterday near eleventh in Palace for Tardy
Street. A woman and another man were

264
00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:07.880
hurt. A teacher in Moreno Valley's
been arrested for allegedly being drunk in public

265
00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:11.759
and contributing to the delinquency of a
minor. The teacher was arrested Saturday at

266
00:20:11.880 --> 00:20:15.359
Valley View High School. A parent
had called the sheriff's station and reported the

267
00:20:15.400 --> 00:20:21.400
teacher appeared to be intoxicated on school
grounds. People in Tennessee are cleaning up

268
00:20:21.440 --> 00:20:26.960
after severe storms killed six people at
least twenty six tornadoes. Twenty six tornadoes

269
00:20:27.000 --> 00:20:32.680
were reported across the region over the
weekend. Government officials confirmed three people died

270
00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:37.400
near Nashville when a tornado hit Montgomery
County on Saturday. Three others were killed

271
00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:41.640
from tornadoes in a neighborhood near downtown. This man in Clarksville says he was

272
00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:45.480
putting his son in a car seat
when he heard what sounded like a freight

273
00:20:45.519 --> 00:20:48.359
train. That pulled my son out
as fast as I could. We ran

274
00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:52.880
inside, my two sons, and
my wife and I we jumped in the

275
00:20:52.920 --> 00:20:57.160
bathroom. Officials say the storms toppled
houses and cut power to tens of thousands

276
00:20:57.200 --> 00:21:02.920
of people. President Biden had invited
Ukrainian President Zelensky to the White House.

277
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:06.440
The two are set to meet tomorrow. The White House says Biden intends to

278
00:21:06.640 --> 00:21:11.720
underscore the US's unshakable commitment to supporting
the people of Ukraine in the war against

279
00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:18.119
Russia. Biden is pushing Congress to
approve more aid for Ukraine. Fire Crews

280
00:21:18.119 --> 00:21:22.640
have surrounded about fifty percent of a
wind driven wildfire in Ventura County. The

281
00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:26.319
fires burned twenty seven hundred acres since
it started Saturday, evacuation orders near Santa

282
00:21:26.319 --> 00:21:30.279
Paul have been lifted, but residents
in the area have been warned to be

283
00:21:30.319 --> 00:21:33.119
ready to get out again if needed. A man who allegedly tried to ram

284
00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:37.839
into several police vehicles at the end
of a chase has been shot by Huntington

285
00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:41.480
Park Police. The fifty one year
old is in critical condition. One officer

286
00:21:41.680 --> 00:21:45.559
was injured. Late Saturday afternoon,
a new Wall Street Journal poll shows former

287
00:21:45.599 --> 00:21:52.599
South Carolina Republican governor Nikki Haley would
beat President Biden by seventeen points in a

288
00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:57.200
hypothetical matchup, but Hailey still trails
former President Trump by more than forty points

289
00:21:57.240 --> 00:22:02.880
in recent polling for the Republican nomination. At six five, it's handle on

290
00:22:02.960 --> 00:22:07.680
the news, Netanyahu says, militants
have been surrendering, and this is the

291
00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:11.559
beginning of the end of Moss.
At five point fifty, we're going to

292
00:22:11.559 --> 00:22:17.000
be telling you how your presence could
be the best present this Christmas, and

293
00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:19.039
we've got a great idea on how
you can do it. Right now,

294
00:22:19.119 --> 00:22:25.640
let's say good morning to ABC's Steve
Roberts. Steve College campuses are in the

295
00:22:25.680 --> 00:22:30.920
spotlightest protest breakout across the us.
The president of the University of Pennsylvania forced

296
00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:38.039
to resign over the weekend. That's
true, and the reason for this is

297
00:22:38.079 --> 00:22:45.039
that she appeared at a congressional hearing
along with the presidents of Harvard and MIT

298
00:22:45.839 --> 00:22:52.000
and was asked pointedly about policies toward
anti Semitism on their campuses, and she

299
00:22:52.200 --> 00:22:56.400
gave a very legalistic answer. This
woman, Liz McGill, was formerly the

300
00:22:56.480 --> 00:23:00.599
dean of the Stanford Law School,
and so she interpreted the question from a

301
00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:06.839
very legalistic point of view, and
what she said this actually pretty accurate when

302
00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:11.160
she said, look, the American
tradition, our tradition is that we permit

303
00:23:11.279 --> 00:23:15.960
speech when we defend free speech until
it becomes conduct, till it crosses a

304
00:23:17.000 --> 00:23:21.440
line to threaten individuals. Well,
that was a legalistic answer, but it

305
00:23:21.480 --> 00:23:25.400
was not a moral answer. And
what she and the other the other two

306
00:23:25.680 --> 00:23:29.920
college presidents failed to do was say, look, we defend the right of

307
00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:33.759
our students to protest, we defend
the right of them to support Palestine,

308
00:23:33.119 --> 00:23:38.559
but we denounce anti Semitism. When
we denounced harassment and bullying on our campuses.

309
00:23:38.599 --> 00:23:45.279
There's a difference between banning speech and
criticizing speech and they just hit behind

310
00:23:45.279 --> 00:23:47.799
the notion of well, we're not
going to ban anything, but they failed

311
00:23:47.799 --> 00:23:55.440
to criticize the uglier themes that they
heard on their campuses, and it was

312
00:23:55.480 --> 00:24:00.200
a moral moment, and leading a
university is not just about legality, also

313
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:03.359
about moral leadership, and that's where
they failed. Yeah, well, and

314
00:24:03.400 --> 00:24:07.640
they have to walk this really,
you know, a really tight line because

315
00:24:08.079 --> 00:24:11.559
they kind of have to be politically
correct, and like you said, they

316
00:24:11.599 --> 00:24:15.839
have to say that the campus is
supposed to be more neutral on a lot

317
00:24:15.839 --> 00:24:19.559
of things and let the students protest
because they can. But I think that

318
00:24:19.680 --> 00:24:22.920
where they trip themselves up, like
you said, is they gave a legal

319
00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:26.000
answer, and all three of them
at least, well at least two of

320
00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:30.160
them that I saw, said well, it depends on the context. And

321
00:24:30.200 --> 00:24:33.519
I was like, the context of
whether genocide is correct? I mean it

322
00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:40.599
was. It became really uncomfortable to
watch too, it did, because and

323
00:24:40.920 --> 00:24:47.400
they just failed to understand the larger
implications of what they were saying. And

324
00:24:48.960 --> 00:24:52.359
look, the takeaway from this is
not that this speech should be banned.

325
00:24:52.440 --> 00:25:00.799
That would be an unfortunate takeaway.
The answer is is debate, it's robust

326
00:25:00.880 --> 00:25:07.839
engagement, it's criticism. This is
all part of the central role of any

327
00:25:07.960 --> 00:25:11.920
university. I've taught at George Washington
University for thirty three years, and that's

328
00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:18.519
what universities should do. They should
be forms of debate. They should be

329
00:25:18.720 --> 00:25:23.720
forms where views clash and contradict it
and argue. But also the other problem

330
00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:30.960
that these university officials have is that
they haven't always been consistent about free speech,

331
00:25:30.000 --> 00:25:37.720
because at times they have a supported
speech codes which actually restricts speech and

332
00:25:37.880 --> 00:25:47.720
protect students from being uncomfortable or coddled. And the same presidents who now are

333
00:25:47.720 --> 00:25:51.599
defending free speech have not always done
that, and they haven't always done free

334
00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:55.920
speech for conservatives. You look what
happened at the Stanford Law School last spring.

335
00:25:56.680 --> 00:26:00.799
A conservative judge was invited to speak. He was shot down by liberal

336
00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:07.319
hecklers, and an official in the
university got up and defended the hecklers,

337
00:26:07.799 --> 00:26:11.559
saying that they felt pained by what
the judge had to say, in part

338
00:26:11.559 --> 00:26:18.119
because he had been critical of transgender
rights and other issues that these students objected

339
00:26:18.160 --> 00:26:25.079
to. But this is also part
of the backstory here that these universities have

340
00:26:25.200 --> 00:26:29.119
defended the free speech rights of a
lot of liberals but not always the conservatives.

341
00:26:29.359 --> 00:26:33.480
Yeah. Now, so the University
of Pennsylvania President elizmcgill stepped down what's

342
00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:37.960
going on with Harvard and MIT and
the indications on whether one or both of

343
00:26:38.000 --> 00:26:44.839
them might resign as well. Well, the president of MIT was not quite

344
00:26:45.440 --> 00:26:51.240
as tied up in the debate,
and the governing body of MIT is pretty

345
00:26:51.279 --> 00:26:56.039
much supportive of her. Harvard's a
more difficult problem because Claudine Gave, the

346
00:26:56.079 --> 00:27:02.599
president of that university, has made
a number of statements that have angered donors

347
00:27:02.680 --> 00:27:07.079
and folks. But let's be completely
honest here, Claudine Gay is the first

348
00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:11.200
black woman the president of Harvard,
and Harvard is going to be very,

349
00:27:11.680 --> 00:27:17.920
very very reluctant to push her out. So, to be completely frank with

350
00:27:17.960 --> 00:27:22.160
you, she has some protections that
Lis McGill didn't have. Now, Steve,

351
00:27:22.200 --> 00:27:26.240
you mentioned that you've been teaching at
George Washington for like decades has and

352
00:27:26.319 --> 00:27:33.559
you're seeing a lot of anti Israeli
or anti Semitic sentiment. Is this something

353
00:27:33.599 --> 00:27:37.519
that's been simmering or did it just
really explode with the Israel Lamos war.

354
00:27:40.200 --> 00:27:41.839
Well, I think both. It's
a very good question, and I think

355
00:27:41.839 --> 00:27:48.000
it's both let's be honest here.
The formation of the state of Israel after

356
00:27:48.039 --> 00:27:52.880
the Holocaust is ancient history to students. Even the wars in sixty seven and

357
00:27:52.960 --> 00:27:59.400
seventy three, when Israel's very existence
was threatened by Arab invasions, that's also

358
00:27:59.440 --> 00:28:07.000
ancient history. And Israel's historic profile
identity as a struggling democracy surrounded by threatening

359
00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:11.440
and hostile Arab countries, that's not
the image young people have of Israel today.

360
00:28:11.440 --> 00:28:17.039
But they have of Israel as much
more of a powerful state that represses

361
00:28:17.079 --> 00:28:22.799
its neighbors and represses the Palestinians.
And you know, there's a I believe

362
00:28:22.799 --> 00:28:30.000
there's a direct line from movements like
Black Lives Matters. In effect, a

363
00:28:30.039 --> 00:28:33.920
lot of what you're seeing is it
could be called Palestinian Lives Matter. It's

364
00:28:33.960 --> 00:28:41.319
the same impulse on the part of
young people to identify with marginalized and oppressed

365
00:28:41.319 --> 00:28:44.519
peoples, and they see Israel as
the oppressor, not as the victim,

366
00:28:45.160 --> 00:28:51.119
and they've forgotten history and then maybe
they've never actually even learned it. But

367
00:28:51.319 --> 00:28:56.799
also, I think must be also
honest, Anti Semitism as always just below

368
00:28:56.920 --> 00:29:04.640
the surface, and this explosion on
the Middle East has triggered and permitted and

369
00:29:04.799 --> 00:29:11.799
enabled expressions of anti Semitism that have
always been there. So it's a combination

370
00:29:11.920 --> 00:29:18.400
of factors. But the bottom line
here is that young people are far less

371
00:29:18.920 --> 00:29:22.440
supportive of Israel. There was a
Quinnipiac poll about forty six percent of Americans

372
00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:29.079
overall supported Israel's policy in the Middle
East, but only twenty percent of young

373
00:29:29.079 --> 00:29:34.079
people under thirty five, which is
a stunning difference. And it's a political

374
00:29:34.119 --> 00:29:40.039
threat to Joe Biden because his staunch
supports for Israel has called growing unease among

375
00:29:40.039 --> 00:29:44.480
the number of younger voters. Yeah. Another sign too that higher education isn't

376
00:29:44.480 --> 00:29:48.880
necessarily educating, at least not fulling
educating. Steve Roberts, thank you so

377
00:29:48.960 --> 00:29:53.720
much for your time and your insight
this morning. Appreciate it anytime. All

378
00:29:53.799 --> 00:29:56.839
right, let's get back to some
of the stories coming out of the KFI

379
00:29:56.839 --> 00:30:00.519
twenty four our newsroom. Another claim's
been filed against the l Kenny Sha Department

380
00:30:00.599 --> 00:30:03.759
over the death of a deputy.
The twenty million dollar claim blames the department's

381
00:30:03.799 --> 00:30:10.160
overtime policy for the death of Deputy
Arturo Attilano Valdez, who killed himself in

382
00:30:10.200 --> 00:30:14.759
November. His widow says he suffered
from deep depression after being forced to work

383
00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:19.279
exhaustive mandatory overtime for a dozen years
at a jail facility. The parents of

384
00:30:19.279 --> 00:30:25.039
a deputy killed outside the sheriff's Palmdale
station in September have also filed a claim

385
00:30:25.119 --> 00:30:30.559
over the department's overtime policy. The
State Department has invoked emergency rules to bypass

386
00:30:30.640 --> 00:30:34.359
congressional approval for the sale of thirteen
thousand rounds of tank ammunition to Israel.

387
00:30:34.720 --> 00:30:40.559
Secretary of State Antony Blincoln also says
the US is in constant contact with Israel

388
00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:47.000
about complying with international humanitarian rules.
There's a gap between the intent and the

389
00:30:47.039 --> 00:30:48.599
results, and that's the gap that
we're trying to make sure his close.

390
00:30:49.000 --> 00:30:55.920
He says the US is trying to
lower civilian casualties. President Biden is traveling

391
00:30:55.920 --> 00:30:59.359
to Philadelphia this morning. The White
House says he's going to announce a federal

392
00:30:59.359 --> 00:31:02.960
grant for the city's fire department to
pay for the reopening of three fire companies.

393
00:31:03.359 --> 00:31:10.000
Lebron James Son Bronni made his college
basketball debut when USC hosted Long Beach

394
00:31:10.039 --> 00:31:14.599
State over the weekend. He scored
four points yesterday, but USC lost in

395
00:31:14.680 --> 00:31:18.920
overtime. The younger James suffered a
cardiac arrest during practice in July and was

396
00:31:19.000 --> 00:31:26.720
just cleared to play again last week. Shohy Otani is turning blue. The

397
00:31:26.799 --> 00:31:30.359
former Angel slugger and pitcher assigned a
seven hundred million dollars ten year deal with

398
00:31:30.400 --> 00:31:33.720
the Dodgers. The Dodger's been trying
to get Otani since he graduated from high

399
00:31:33.759 --> 00:31:37.680
school, but at that time he
went to a Japanese league instead, and

400
00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:41.000
then they tried again in twenty eighteen, but Otani went to the Angels.

401
00:31:41.000 --> 00:31:44.720
Well, now he's ours, and
we're going to be talking more about the

402
00:31:44.759 --> 00:31:48.240
deal in Handle on the news coming
up at six h five. Ukrainian President

403
00:31:48.359 --> 00:31:52.759
Zelenski will travel to Washington, d
C. Tomorrow. President Biden invited him

404
00:31:52.759 --> 00:31:56.480
to the White House for a meeting
to underscore US support for Ukraine. The

405
00:31:56.559 --> 00:32:01.079
meeting comes less than a week after
Senate Republic Pulicans blocked an aid package for

406
00:32:01.240 --> 00:32:07.319
Israel and Ukraine as well because it
didn't include a plan for the US border.

407
00:32:07.079 --> 00:32:13.880
Barbenheimer continues to rule. Barbie has
topped the Golden Globe Awards nominations just

408
00:32:13.920 --> 00:32:21.119
announced. Barbie got nine nominations and
Oppenheimer came up with eight. Right now,

409
00:32:21.839 --> 00:32:25.920
I'm going to explain to you how
your presence is the presence this Christmas.

410
00:32:27.880 --> 00:32:30.839
So we all have a lot of
stuff, and I think what we

411
00:32:30.960 --> 00:32:37.759
learned during the pandemic when we couldn't
be together is that we craved experiences.

412
00:32:37.839 --> 00:32:39.680
So I was thinking and my friend, a couple of my friends and I

413
00:32:39.680 --> 00:32:45.279
have done this throughout the years,
where we give each other experiences as opposed

414
00:32:45.279 --> 00:32:49.839
to something that you can hold in
your hand. So why not give the

415
00:32:49.920 --> 00:32:52.359
gift of an experience this Christmas.
You can do it with a friend,

416
00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:54.400
you can do it with a boy
or girlfriend, you can do it with

417
00:32:54.440 --> 00:32:58.440
a loved one. And we thought
that this one would be a really fun

418
00:32:58.599 --> 00:33:04.759
gift to give this Christmas. Again, your presence is the present. So

419
00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:07.799
this morning we have Laura popiing with
us. She is the owner of Prime

420
00:33:08.039 --> 00:33:14.079
Ingredient. So Laura tell us about
what we cooked and the whole process of

421
00:33:14.119 --> 00:33:16.160
the twelve of us who attended the
class, and what we just went through.

422
00:33:16.279 --> 00:33:23.160
These cooking experiences bring together friends,
family, just people around you that

423
00:33:23.240 --> 00:33:27.160
you want to just hang out with
that we hadn't been able to do for

424
00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:30.200
a long time. And the process
that we went through today was to give

425
00:33:30.200 --> 00:33:37.960
you a full folio of Lebanese history, culture, some funky words, and

426
00:33:38.079 --> 00:33:42.079
we heard lots of funky words,
yes, a lot lots of funky words,

427
00:33:42.119 --> 00:33:45.000
and kind of just take you through
some recipes that I had as a

428
00:33:45.079 --> 00:33:47.839
kid and that my mom showed me
how to make. And so these recipes

429
00:33:47.839 --> 00:33:51.519
are based on what you learned as
you were growing up. And you said,

430
00:33:51.519 --> 00:33:52.440
these are so good, I need
to share these with the world.

431
00:33:52.559 --> 00:33:57.240
Absolutely, And I expanded on what
my mom taught me a little bit,

432
00:33:58.119 --> 00:34:02.279
but primarily it was just about getting
good food on the table quickly, yep.

433
00:34:02.359 --> 00:34:06.960
And it doesn't have to be complicated. I love it and what we

434
00:34:07.039 --> 00:34:08.880
did, so you can see some
of the things we did. So let's

435
00:34:08.880 --> 00:34:13.800
point out a couple of the things
we did. We started out with this,

436
00:34:13.920 --> 00:34:15.320
and again I can't say any of
this stuff, so I'm gonna leave

437
00:34:15.360 --> 00:34:19.599
it. I'll help you out.
So this is monay Ish. This is

438
00:34:19.639 --> 00:34:23.400
the basic moneysh recipe, which is
basically zotar on top of some bread,

439
00:34:24.119 --> 00:34:30.519
but zotar with my prime spice.
So I make a prime spice that is

440
00:34:30.639 --> 00:34:37.320
similar to Zostart's. The Mediterranean blend
with thyme and oregano. And by the

441
00:34:37.360 --> 00:34:39.719
way, I grow the oregano in
my back round do yeah. Yeah,

442
00:34:39.800 --> 00:34:42.840
she told me is that she had
a lot of side hustles. Now I

443
00:34:43.000 --> 00:34:46.559
believe it, Okay, Yes,
So we made this and that was course

444
00:34:46.639 --> 00:34:51.239
number one, and we made three
different kinds. Super easy to do,

445
00:34:51.280 --> 00:34:53.960
and it was fun and you had
all of us up chopping things and decorating

446
00:34:54.079 --> 00:34:58.960
things and putting things in the oven
and coming out, which was why it

447
00:34:59.039 --> 00:35:01.039
was so much fun because we weren't
only watching you cook. We got to

448
00:35:01.079 --> 00:35:05.400
do it with you. And I
think the experienced part of it is great.

449
00:35:05.440 --> 00:35:07.880
It can get bedlam, which is
so much fun. You know,

450
00:35:07.960 --> 00:35:10.119
you just don't know what's going to
happen. In fact, I think I

451
00:35:10.199 --> 00:35:15.039
lit something on fire. Well that
just made it more fun, okay.

452
00:35:15.079 --> 00:35:17.519
And then we went on to salad
and so yes, so this is a

453
00:35:17.639 --> 00:35:22.480
grilled all of salad and it has
traditional Persian cucumbers in there, some roma

454
00:35:22.519 --> 00:35:27.440
tomatoes and the grilled olives. We
did it right here in class. Who

455
00:35:27.519 --> 00:35:30.559
knew you could grill olives and it
makes them like nutty and just give them

456
00:35:30.559 --> 00:35:36.039
a different taste and flavor. Absolutely, and you want to serve them slightly

457
00:35:36.079 --> 00:35:38.960
worn, so it's a really different
take on a salad, okay. And

458
00:35:39.000 --> 00:35:44.719
then we had the rice and we
had the salmon, which she also taught

459
00:35:44.760 --> 00:35:47.239
us how to make the marinade,
so that was fun. And then grilled

460
00:35:47.239 --> 00:35:51.800
the salmon and also baked the salmon. Did it a couple of different ways,

461
00:35:52.079 --> 00:35:53.519
and we would be remiss if we
didn't say that, not only are

462
00:35:53.519 --> 00:35:57.159
you teaching us how to do things, you're teaching us how to make like

463
00:35:57.199 --> 00:36:00.760
our own marinades and how to make
baby. Oh. The salad dressing so

464
00:36:00.840 --> 00:36:06.199
good pantry staple for sure. It's
super, super simple, and it's a

465
00:36:06.320 --> 00:36:12.360
basic vinaigrette, but it's elevated with
the prime spice and some really tasty olive

466
00:36:12.360 --> 00:36:15.119
oils. Okay, And speaking of
the really tasty olive oils, here they

467
00:36:15.119 --> 00:36:22.119
are. Yes, I love my
California based olive oils. They're grown in

468
00:36:22.239 --> 00:36:28.679
Yuba City, California, the olive
trees and they are crushed within the first

469
00:36:28.760 --> 00:36:32.920
twenty four hours of shaking from the
trees. And it's a robust blend which

470
00:36:32.920 --> 00:36:37.639
has a little bit of heat at
the finish. It's just the cultivar of

471
00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:44.639
olive that we use and the mild
blend which is perfect for cooking on heat.

472
00:36:45.400 --> 00:36:50.559
Have the chan habit, just shoot
it just like Tequila's. Okay,

473
00:36:50.599 --> 00:36:53.320
So you came up with these and
these, and if I want to get

474
00:36:53.400 --> 00:36:57.400
those, where do I find it? Yes, the Prime Ingredient dot Com

475
00:36:57.440 --> 00:37:00.800
Okay, And you can just click
on shop and there's a Prime trio which

476
00:37:00.800 --> 00:37:06.199
you can buy. You'll get both
all olive oils and the spice and it's

477
00:37:06.239 --> 00:37:08.199
all packaged together just like that.
Or you can buy them all a carte.

478
00:37:08.440 --> 00:37:12.480
That could be a fun Christmas gift
too. And like we were talking

479
00:37:12.559 --> 00:37:15.559
about, with the classes, you
generally do like an in home experience.

480
00:37:15.679 --> 00:37:20.360
Yeah, okay, So if somebody
is interested in having Laura come to the

481
00:37:20.360 --> 00:37:22.480
house and do an in home experience, and I will tell you this was

482
00:37:22.519 --> 00:37:25.519
so much fun because I am not
a very good cook and I don't know

483
00:37:25.760 --> 00:37:29.280
like, I don't know how to
think to put the things together. So

484
00:37:29.280 --> 00:37:31.760
she's kind of taken all of that
and done it for me, but made

485
00:37:31.760 --> 00:37:36.159
the whole experience really fun that you
can do it yourself. Oh, I'm

486
00:37:36.159 --> 00:37:37.639
going to totally do this for my
family at Christmas. I can't wait.

487
00:37:37.840 --> 00:37:40.760
Absolutely, they're going to think I'm
crazy because they're going to say, no,

488
00:37:40.840 --> 00:37:43.679
you can't do that, but I
think I'm gonna really do it.

489
00:37:43.679 --> 00:37:49.079
It's traditional holiday feast what you're having, so it who's tradition. It could

490
00:37:49.119 --> 00:37:52.079
be just yours now I love that. But you can find out about the

491
00:37:52.079 --> 00:37:57.920

494
00:38:05.840 --> 00:38:10.159
cooked a whole meal and we got
to take home some fabulous leftovers and the

495
00:38:10.239 --> 00:38:15.679
really cool thing again that made it
and fun experiences. We weren't only watching

496
00:38:15.679 --> 00:38:20.039
her, but we learned how to
cook this meal and really really fun.

497
