00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.919
<v Speaker 1>This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI

2
00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:05.839
<v Speaker 1>AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand

3
00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:09.880
<v Speaker 1>on the iHeartRadio app. What a full show for a Monday,

4
00:00:10.720 --> 00:00:12.919
<v Speaker 1>So much we're going to accomplish a day. There was

5
00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:16.679
<v Speaker 1>all that fervor over this massive immigration sweep in Los

6
00:00:16.679 --> 00:00:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Angeles with ice over the weekend, and even the LA

7
00:00:20.440 --> 00:00:22.879
<v Speaker 1>Times will tell you the numbers don't show that it

8
00:00:23.079 --> 00:00:26.760
<v Speaker 1>was a massive immigration sweep. It was much more targeted

9
00:00:27.160 --> 00:00:30.359
<v Speaker 1>and smaller than the hair on fire people would like

10
00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:30.839
<v Speaker 1>you to think.

11
00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:32.960
<v Speaker 2>Ye, but what about all the schools that they raided?

12
00:00:34.039 --> 00:00:35.280
<v Speaker 1>No, No, it did not happen.

13
00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:37.119
<v Speaker 2>But what about all the churches that they went they

14
00:00:37.159 --> 00:00:37.759
<v Speaker 2>went into.

15
00:00:39.479 --> 00:00:43.079
<v Speaker 1>Nope, also not in the uh, not in the reporting.

16
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Very weird swamp watch in about an hour. I don't

17
00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:50.119
<v Speaker 1>know what the Democrats are doing in terms of circling

18
00:00:50.159 --> 00:00:54.159
<v Speaker 1>their wagons. I think that they're by and large ignoring

19
00:00:54.359 --> 00:00:56.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot of what's going on with the new administration,

20
00:00:57.880 --> 00:01:00.920
<v Speaker 1>which I think is really good for your self care.

21
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:04.439
<v Speaker 1>If you're a Democrat, if you're a strong progressive, I

22
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:06.640
<v Speaker 1>think that you probably don't want to pay attention to

23
00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:09.480
<v Speaker 1>what's going on. But for Democrats as a whole. I

24
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:12.040
<v Speaker 1>don't know how helpful that is going to be considering

25
00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:16.000
<v Speaker 1>the ground that Republicans are gaining. And I'm not talking

26
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:18.959
<v Speaker 1>about Trump Republicans specifically. There are a lot of people

27
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:22.000
<v Speaker 1>that are now having a little bit of buyer's remorse

28
00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:30.719
<v Speaker 1>with his activity. Is lots of activity, shall we say,

29
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:33.439
<v Speaker 1>coming out of this administration in terms of executive orders

30
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:36.840
<v Speaker 1>and actions, right, And there are some people that, well,

31
00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:39.959
<v Speaker 1>let's pump the brakes a little bit, But there is

32
00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:45.040
<v Speaker 1>a large amount of young people that are looking at

33
00:01:45.120 --> 00:01:48.040
<v Speaker 1>what's going on with Elon Musk and the young techies

34
00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:51.079
<v Speaker 1>that he is kind of raised up to the upper

35
00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:55.359
<v Speaker 1>echelon of his government cutting efforts, and that's said to

36
00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:58.400
<v Speaker 1>be a big youth magnet moving forward, and what that

37
00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:01.719
<v Speaker 1>could mean for the Republican Party and for how Democrats

38
00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:06.599
<v Speaker 1>respond to that moving forward. We have just experienced the

39
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:11.400
<v Speaker 1>worst natural disaster that our city has ever experienced. It

40
00:02:11.439 --> 00:02:14.199
<v Speaker 1>would be wonderful to think that everything would be.

41
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:16.919
<v Speaker 3>Smooth every step of the way, but I don't believe

42
00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:18.039
<v Speaker 3>that that is realistic.

43
00:02:18.439 --> 00:02:21.199
<v Speaker 4>Man. It was an interesting three days. It started with

44
00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:26.120
<v Speaker 4>Karen Vass's interview with Fox eleven, where she admitted leaving

45
00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:29.599
<v Speaker 4>town was an absolute mistake, but then blamed the fire

46
00:02:29.719 --> 00:02:33.400
<v Speaker 4>chief for not calling the mayor's office to suggest that

47
00:02:33.479 --> 00:02:38.199
<v Speaker 4>the giant windstorm could potentially bring with it dangerous wildfires,

48
00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:39.680
<v Speaker 4>despite the fact that we had been.

49
00:02:39.599 --> 00:02:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Talking about it for a week.

50
00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:44.120
<v Speaker 4>And then, of course, Friday, the announcement came down that

51
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:47.439
<v Speaker 4>Karen Bass fired Kristen Crowley as the chief of the

52
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:52.560
<v Speaker 4>La Fire Department. At the time, Chief Crowley was relatively

53
00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:57.680
<v Speaker 4>quiet most of most of Friday, but by Saturday she'd

54
00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:00.159
<v Speaker 4>put out a statement that said, as the fire chief,

55
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:02.479
<v Speaker 4>I based my actions and decisions on taking care of

56
00:03:02.479 --> 00:03:05.080
<v Speaker 4>our firefighters so that they could take care of our communities.

57
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:08.000
<v Speaker 4>I'm extremely proud of the work, the sacrifice and dedication

58
00:03:08.039 --> 00:03:10.879
<v Speaker 4>of our LAFD members, both sworn and civilian.

59
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:13.360
<v Speaker 2>No mention of the fact that she was fired in

60
00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:16.240
<v Speaker 2>that statement. Bit of a mean girl's.

61
00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:20.759
<v Speaker 1>Vibe going on with La County and the powers that

62
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:25.319
<v Speaker 1>be right now. As I mentioned, when Kristin came out,

63
00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:28.280
<v Speaker 1>the fire chief Kristan Crowley, excuse me, I keep calling

64
00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:31.960
<v Speaker 1>her Kristen. Kristin Crowley came out and said LA failed us,

65
00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:34.840
<v Speaker 1>the leadership failed us. In the days after that fire.

66
00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:36.439
<v Speaker 1>We didn't have what we needed, we didn't have the

67
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:39.479
<v Speaker 1>resources that we needed. LA City Hall cut our budget.

68
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:41.719
<v Speaker 1>We're screwed, and this is proof we're screwed. And now

69
00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:44.800
<v Speaker 1>everyone's feeling the horror of this. When she came out

70
00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:46.800
<v Speaker 1>and said that, and then we all thought she was

71
00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:49.319
<v Speaker 1>going to get canned. And then Karen Bass came out

72
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:51.800
<v Speaker 1>and said, no, we had a very productive conversation. Blah

73
00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:53.840
<v Speaker 1>blah blah blah blah blah blah. We all knew that

74
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:58.560
<v Speaker 1>that relationship had been soured. And then came the ensuing

75
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:01.479
<v Speaker 1>weeks when Karen Bass told all of her employees basically

76
00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:04.360
<v Speaker 1>what Elon Musk told all the federal employees. Hey give

77
00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:06.400
<v Speaker 1>me a list, give me a five point list of

78
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:09.159
<v Speaker 1>ways I can fire this woman. Essentially is what happened.

79
00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:11.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure of it. Karen Bass was like, let's go

80
00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:14.680
<v Speaker 1>through line by line and give me tangible reasons why

81
00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:17.839
<v Speaker 1>I can fire this person who just sandbagged me on television.

82
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:20.240
<v Speaker 1>And they did, and they came up with the fact

83
00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:24.079
<v Speaker 1>that Kristin Crowley is sent under her watch. I guess

84
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:26.319
<v Speaker 1>you could say, I don't know if she personally did this,

85
00:04:26.399 --> 00:04:29.000
<v Speaker 1>but that a thousand firefighters on the morning that the

86
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:33.120
<v Speaker 1>Palisades fire broke out were sent home, essentially that there

87
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:35.160
<v Speaker 1>were a thousand firefighters at home that could have been

88
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:38.879
<v Speaker 1>working the lines. Is the assertion that Kristin Crowley refused

89
00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:41.879
<v Speaker 1>to do an after action report. These are two things

90
00:04:41.920 --> 00:04:44.360
<v Speaker 1>that people came up with. Oh and she also didn't

91
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:47.199
<v Speaker 1>do this. Okay, perfect, we've got an excuse to fire her.

92
00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:50.720
<v Speaker 1>But it also should not be ignored the kerfuffle that

93
00:04:50.759 --> 00:04:54.079
<v Speaker 1>has happened with Karen Bass and Lindsay Horrvath at the

94
00:04:54.160 --> 00:05:00.240
<v Speaker 1>Supervisor's building, and that power strugs well Karen Bass as

95
00:05:00.439 --> 00:05:04.040
<v Speaker 1>practiced is she is being a cutthroat politician, ascending all

96
00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:07.120
<v Speaker 1>of the ranks in California on the state level and

97
00:05:07.160 --> 00:05:11.040
<v Speaker 1>now locally there's a very new thing that's happening where

98
00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:14.759
<v Speaker 1>people are rolling on her the way that we haven't

99
00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:18.240
<v Speaker 1>really seen people roll on people that have titles like

100
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:20.639
<v Speaker 1>Mayor of Los Angeles in the past when it comes

101
00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:23.319
<v Speaker 1>to Horvath and Kristin Krowley.

102
00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:25.879
<v Speaker 4>Well, and the other thing that came out on Friday,

103
00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:28.920
<v Speaker 4>right towards the end of the show after the news conference,

104
00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:35.120
<v Speaker 4>the Monica Rodriguez had come out City council member increasingly

105
00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:37.920
<v Speaker 4>critical of Mayor Bass and said, oh, hell no, are

106
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:41.519
<v Speaker 4>not quoting there necessarily, but hal no, she said she

107
00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:45.120
<v Speaker 4>wants to get ten of the fifteen lax city council

108
00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:49.199
<v Speaker 4>members on board to override the firing of the chief. Now,

109
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:52.560
<v Speaker 4>that's a pretty significant uphill climb. You know, two thirds

110
00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:55.399
<v Speaker 4>of the board. You they wouldn't be able to agree

111
00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:59.560
<v Speaker 4>on anything. But I mean, I can't remember in the

112
00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:02.040
<v Speaker 4>twenty plars plus years that I've been in La where

113
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:04.720
<v Speaker 4>the city council has fought back, even if it's just

114
00:06:04.759 --> 00:06:08.680
<v Speaker 4>an individual city council member has fought that, fought back

115
00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:10.600
<v Speaker 4>that aggressively against the mayor.

116
00:06:10.959 --> 00:06:12.040
<v Speaker 2>Well, it was never public.

117
00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:14.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, when I was a reporter. Yeah, I mean

118
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:17.759
<v Speaker 1>when I was a reporter whatever, fifteen years ago. There

119
00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:20.600
<v Speaker 1>was always consternation between city Hall and the County Board

120
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:25.399
<v Speaker 1>of Supervisors. You know, Jaroslavsky and via Gosa, what have you.

121
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:28.439
<v Speaker 1>There's always been that, but it's been behind closed doors.

122
00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:31.560
<v Speaker 1>It's been behind the city council chambers that those questions

123
00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:34.399
<v Speaker 1>were asked and answered. It wasn't so public as it

124
00:06:34.519 --> 00:06:37.600
<v Speaker 1>is now. You knew that those were you have those

125
00:06:37.639 --> 00:06:40.120
<v Speaker 1>power struggles, but isn't that what we're seeing kind of

126
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:43.800
<v Speaker 1>nationally as well? You know, we always go back to

127
00:06:43.879 --> 00:06:47.920
<v Speaker 1>the note that you know, George H. W left for

128
00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:52.079
<v Speaker 1>Bill Clinton and how you know, civil things were just

129
00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:54.839
<v Speaker 1>a handful of years ago and now everyone's fighting and

130
00:06:54.879 --> 00:06:58.920
<v Speaker 1>it's out in the open it and within party within

131
00:06:59.079 --> 00:07:03.759
<v Speaker 1>party two. Assolutely excellent point. That is shocking. But local

132
00:07:03.800 --> 00:07:06.519
<v Speaker 1>politics as always within party, isn't it like in a

133
00:07:06.519 --> 00:07:07.040
<v Speaker 1>place like.

134
00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:10.600
<v Speaker 4>La Well, yeah, just because it's so monoculture in terms

135
00:07:10.600 --> 00:07:13.360
<v Speaker 4>of which party you belong to and how how you

136
00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:16.879
<v Speaker 4>get into the into the upper echelons.

137
00:07:16.600 --> 00:07:19.319
<v Speaker 1>Ben to Union Square on this trip or or for

138
00:07:19.360 --> 00:07:21.680
<v Speaker 1>the past ten years, because it's a toilet now it's

139
00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:24.600
<v Speaker 1>an actual toilet where people just go to treat the

140
00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:29.720
<v Speaker 1>streets like their own personal toilets and the city. Instead

141
00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:34.160
<v Speaker 1>of realizing that and saying, huh, we should do something

142
00:07:34.279 --> 00:07:37.439
<v Speaker 1>about criminalizing the open air drug markets and the needle

143
00:07:37.439 --> 00:07:42.319
<v Speaker 1>paloozas and the defecation in the streets. Instead of doing

144
00:07:42.360 --> 00:07:45.279
<v Speaker 1>anything about that, their answer is to put up a giant,

145
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:51.639
<v Speaker 1>forty foot tall nude statue of a woman. Riddle me that,

146
00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:53.920
<v Speaker 1>like I just want someone to explain to me, like

147
00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:57.160
<v Speaker 1>I am here to listen. I am. I love to

148
00:07:57.160 --> 00:07:59.399
<v Speaker 1>hear your ideology behind that and how it's going to

149
00:07:59.439 --> 00:08:00.199
<v Speaker 1>fix things.

150
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:03.639
<v Speaker 4>The beautification of the city, one naked lady at a time.

151
00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:07.240
<v Speaker 1>I think you're gonna explain it to me how boobs can.

152
00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:08.199
<v Speaker 2>Break everything better.

153
00:08:08.800 --> 00:08:09.199
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm.

154
00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:11.839
<v Speaker 4>I'll see what I can do, but I'm not showing

155
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:14.399
<v Speaker 4>them to you. Gary and Shannon will continue seeing them.

156
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:17.720
<v Speaker 3>Welcome back, Shannon. It's good to hear your boys back

157
00:08:17.720 --> 00:08:21.600
<v Speaker 3>on the airwaves. There was a little, uh, it was

158
00:08:21.600 --> 00:08:23.079
<v Speaker 3>a little lonely without you here.

159
00:08:23.079 --> 00:08:26.639
<v Speaker 4>Hey, but we managed, grag struggled a little bit, but

160
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:28.680
<v Speaker 4>we try to keep them alive.

161
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:33.639
<v Speaker 3>And now that your bag an Airheart Radio. That's awesome.

162
00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:37.159
<v Speaker 5>Hi Gary, Hi Shannon. I just wanted to say, welcome

163
00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:39.639
<v Speaker 5>back Shannon. It's so nice to hear you on the

164
00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:41.279
<v Speaker 5>air again. We've missed you greatly.

165
00:08:42.399 --> 00:08:44.399
<v Speaker 1>Not that we don't love you, Gary, it's just.

166
00:08:44.440 --> 00:08:49.720
<v Speaker 5>You two have such a good banter between each other

167
00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:52.399
<v Speaker 5>that I missed it and I'm happy to hear you

168
00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:53.679
<v Speaker 5>on air together again.

169
00:08:53.759 --> 00:08:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Thank you.

170
00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:57.320
<v Speaker 5>Also, please ignore Maggie in the background screaming about Louie.

171
00:08:57.399 --> 00:09:01.440
<v Speaker 1>Sorry Maggie and Blue. I mean, I could just listen

172
00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:03.679
<v Speaker 1>to that all day long instead of this crap.

173
00:09:04.840 --> 00:09:09.120
<v Speaker 4>I love Union Square up in San Francisco, organizers, with

174
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:11.879
<v Speaker 4>the backing of the San Francisco Recreation and Park Department,

175
00:09:12.320 --> 00:09:16.080
<v Speaker 4>are hoping that they can install this for fifty foot

176
00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:21.679
<v Speaker 4>tall statue of a nude woman called r Evolution and

177
00:09:21.759 --> 00:09:24.879
<v Speaker 4>the embarked aero plaza across from the Ferry Building. They're

178
00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:27.399
<v Speaker 4>going to have to get approval from the city's Arts Commission.

179
00:09:27.960 --> 00:09:31.039
<v Speaker 4>The plan was originally to put it at Union Square,

180
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:35.960
<v Speaker 4>but they realized that there is a bunch of granite

181
00:09:36.120 --> 00:09:39.519
<v Speaker 4>tiles that could crack at the base because of the

182
00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:40.440
<v Speaker 4>size of this gal.

183
00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:44.600
<v Speaker 1>There's a couple problems with this. I mean, put away

184
00:09:44.759 --> 00:09:48.480
<v Speaker 1>all of the easy, low hanging fruit jokes about putting

185
00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:50.679
<v Speaker 1>up a naked statue of a woman in a drug

186
00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:51.799
<v Speaker 1>infested area.

187
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:52.960
<v Speaker 2>Just put that away.

188
00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:59.399
<v Speaker 1>The ridiculous, isn't it. Put it away? She's rather sveltz.

189
00:09:59.399 --> 00:10:01.799
<v Speaker 1>Have you seen the sure I'm looking for it. She's

190
00:10:01.879 --> 00:10:07.159
<v Speaker 1>got a nice little waistline. She's too, she's too she

191
00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:10.559
<v Speaker 1>looks like a model, really, and I don't think that's

192
00:10:10.559 --> 00:10:12.840
<v Speaker 1>going to go over well in twenty twenty five, especially

193
00:10:12.840 --> 00:10:16.080
<v Speaker 1>in a progressive, body conscious city. Like San Francisco.

194
00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:20.240
<v Speaker 2>Apparently you a regular like it's a.

195
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:22.600
<v Speaker 1>Is that a twenty four inch waist? I mean, what

196
00:10:22.639 --> 00:10:24.799
<v Speaker 1>are we dealing with here? That's not attainable. That's not

197
00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:26.919
<v Speaker 1>a woman. That's not a real woman. That's somebody who

198
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Karen Carpenter. That's a struggle three an aarexia, your whole life.

199
00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:33.159
<v Speaker 1>That's not real. Side, If you're gonna put up a

200
00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:35.799
<v Speaker 1>naked woman, at least make her portion it to what

201
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:36.759
<v Speaker 1>real women.

202
00:10:36.559 --> 00:10:39.559
<v Speaker 2>Look like like real women in San Francisco.

203
00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:43.120
<v Speaker 1>San Francisco, I mean, come on, if you're gonna put well,

204
00:10:44.399 --> 00:10:45.440
<v Speaker 1>I won't be offensive.

205
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:47.200
<v Speaker 2>Why stop now?

206
00:10:50.360 --> 00:10:53.519
<v Speaker 1>But I mean, it's kind of interesting for saying it's

207
00:10:53.519 --> 00:10:56.879
<v Speaker 1>an interesting move for San Francisco. The whole objectify you know,

208
00:10:57.080 --> 00:10:59.159
<v Speaker 1>probably it's one of those take your power back women

209
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:02.240
<v Speaker 1>feminist things, But on its face, it looks like it's

210
00:11:02.279 --> 00:11:05.600
<v Speaker 1>a very objectifying type statue of a woman who has

211
00:11:05.639 --> 00:11:09.240
<v Speaker 1>a beautiful figure naked in a town square. For a

212
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:12.279
<v Speaker 1>number of reasons, why this just flies in the face

213
00:11:12.320 --> 00:11:15.399
<v Speaker 1>of what San Francisco is. But I guess that's the.

214
00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:17.120
<v Speaker 2>Paradox that is that city.

215
00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:22.240
<v Speaker 4>I guess this. I still can't figure it out. If

216
00:11:22.279 --> 00:11:24.840
<v Speaker 4>this is a sculpture that moves like. They bring it

217
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:28.840
<v Speaker 4>to different areas and part of the word, but they

218
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:30.080
<v Speaker 4>erect the statue there.

219
00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:31.000
<v Speaker 2>They do call it.

220
00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:34.240
<v Speaker 1>An installation, which to me means it's moved. It goes

221
00:11:34.240 --> 00:11:36.240
<v Speaker 1>from city to city, because there's a bunch of different

222
00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:37.399
<v Speaker 1>are moved.

223
00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:37.720
<v Speaker 3>Correct.

224
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:40.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean you're more into the arts community.

225
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:45.639
<v Speaker 4>But I see it like there's a in Miami, there's

226
00:11:45.720 --> 00:11:48.440
<v Speaker 4>one in Outed Burning Man.

227
00:11:49.039 --> 00:11:50.559
<v Speaker 1>Those both make sense.

228
00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:54.039
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, exactly, So I assume this is a This is

229
00:11:54.120 --> 00:11:57.039
<v Speaker 4>one piece that gets moved around different part the piece

230
00:11:57.120 --> 00:11:59.720
<v Speaker 4>is part of a triptych of three similar sculptures. Oh

231
00:11:59.720 --> 00:12:02.080
<v Speaker 4>that there is, one of which is in Vegas, the

232
00:12:02.120 --> 00:12:05.200
<v Speaker 4>other in San Leandro. Of course, it has been displayed

233
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:08.360
<v Speaker 4>in Petaluma, last Vegas, and Miami Beach.

234
00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:11.679
<v Speaker 1>I just want to cover her with sensible shoes and

235
00:12:12.080 --> 00:12:15.600
<v Speaker 1>RII clothes and granola. I want to put a handful

236
00:12:15.639 --> 00:12:18.279
<v Speaker 1>of granola in her and her stone fingers there.

237
00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:19.879
<v Speaker 2>I don't think that's stone.

238
00:12:19.879 --> 00:12:22.240
<v Speaker 1>I think it's uh and maybe a hat to protect

239
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:23.960
<v Speaker 1>herself from the sun that comes out once.

240
00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:26.639
<v Speaker 4>Yes, she's she's gonna need some sunscreen if it gets

241
00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:27.519
<v Speaker 4>too warm.

242
00:12:28.039 --> 00:12:28.919
<v Speaker 1>It's ridiculous.

243
00:12:29.159 --> 00:12:31.240
<v Speaker 2>I did wear sunscreen over the weekend, by the way,

244
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh you did? Yeah? Good, Yeah, I know everybody's worried.

245
00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:35.720
<v Speaker 4>I actually was going to take a picture and send

246
00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:37.519
<v Speaker 4>it to Keana so that she could post it on

247
00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:39.960
<v Speaker 4>our Instagram, just to you know what I pull off

248
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:40.399
<v Speaker 4>my back.

249
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:45.399
<v Speaker 1>You know what I found in my childhood bedroom. I

250
00:12:45.559 --> 00:12:48.480
<v Speaker 1>found a Bible, like a real Bible that like you

251
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:51.519
<v Speaker 1>could It's like a church bible. It's huge.

252
00:12:51.639 --> 00:12:53.960
<v Speaker 2>Could I feed it to my dog because he's got.

253
00:12:53.840 --> 00:12:56.799
<v Speaker 1>A picture of Jesus on the front of it and everything.

254
00:12:57.279 --> 00:13:01.960
<v Speaker 1>It's a huge bible. It's like it's I mean, the

255
00:13:02.039 --> 00:13:05.120
<v Speaker 1>width of it is like six inches. It's like the

256
00:13:05.240 --> 00:13:07.919
<v Speaker 1>legit bible that the priests use during a service.

257
00:13:08.000 --> 00:13:09.039
<v Speaker 2>It's the real Bible.

258
00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:10.639
<v Speaker 1>It's a huge bible.

259
00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:15.519
<v Speaker 2>Had it been opened, there's.

260
00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:19.759
<v Speaker 1>Even Encyclopedia dictionary at the end. It feels like it

261
00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:22.320
<v Speaker 1>has never been opened, which it was my original point.

262
00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:24.080
<v Speaker 1>Like I opened it, and I think it was the

263
00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:25.080
<v Speaker 1>first time it's been open.

264
00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:30.440
<v Speaker 2>You cracked their binding on it for the first time. Yeah.

265
00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:32.399
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, I'll take a picture of it to show you.

266
00:13:32.480 --> 00:13:33.879
<v Speaker 1>It's very fancy, all right.

267
00:13:34.240 --> 00:13:35.440
<v Speaker 2>As we get into swamp Watch.

268
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:37.080
<v Speaker 4>By the way, at the top of the hour, there

269
00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:39.480
<v Speaker 4>were a couple I wanted to point something out. We'll

270
00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:41.759
<v Speaker 4>do when we come back, a couple of people regarding

271
00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:45.360
<v Speaker 4>the quick Elon Musk email that went out. There's a

272
00:13:45.799 --> 00:13:48.039
<v Speaker 4>point of clarification I think we need to make, but

273
00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:49.399
<v Speaker 4>we will talk about it as well.

274
00:13:49.399 --> 00:13:50.919
<v Speaker 2>Coming up in swamp Watch, I.

275
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:54.039
<v Speaker 1>Took a picture of the massive Bible and said to Keana,

276
00:13:54.200 --> 00:13:57.559
<v Speaker 1>it's right. It's on this shelf here right next to

277
00:13:57.639 --> 00:14:02.039
<v Speaker 1>a replica of the state a Notre Dame stadium. There's

278
00:14:02.080 --> 00:14:05.320
<v Speaker 1>a Bible and a replica of the Notre Dame stadium.

279
00:14:05.480 --> 00:14:08.679
<v Speaker 4>That's very, very Catholic. You are really leaning into this thing,

280
00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:11.679
<v Speaker 4>you bet Youah. People are upset that you gave away

281
00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:16.360
<v Speaker 4>the twist in Conclave, by the way, Oh well.

282
00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:19.399
<v Speaker 1>I haven't seen it. I've just heard. Well I've heard

283
00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:20.320
<v Speaker 1>this twist.

284
00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:23.279
<v Speaker 4>Since it was before it even came out, and I

285
00:14:23.440 --> 00:14:25.480
<v Speaker 4>I looked it up.

286
00:14:26.320 --> 00:14:28.759
<v Speaker 2>It's not that the person is transsexual.

287
00:14:29.360 --> 00:14:31.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh well, then I didn't give away anything.

288
00:14:32.279 --> 00:14:37.080
<v Speaker 4>It's a it's uh, there's there's some confusing gender issues

289
00:14:37.080 --> 00:14:38.679
<v Speaker 4>in there, but it's not true.

290
00:14:38.919 --> 00:14:42.840
<v Speaker 1>What else is confusing as opposed to penis? No penis? Well,

291
00:14:42.879 --> 00:14:45.080
<v Speaker 1>they're presenting as someone with a penis or presenting as

292
00:14:45.080 --> 00:14:46.039
<v Speaker 1>someone without a penis.

293
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:50.960
<v Speaker 4>I don't want to say, but let's just say there's surprise,

294
00:14:51.559 --> 00:14:54.039
<v Speaker 4>there's one of those penis.

295
00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:54.480
<v Speaker 1>Surprise.

296
00:14:55.120 --> 00:14:57.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, no, actually that the part.

297
00:14:56.919 --> 00:15:00.159
<v Speaker 1>Was not surprise. Then how is it not involving a trans.

298
00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:03.759
<v Speaker 4>Person because trans people make the transition.

299
00:15:04.759 --> 00:15:06.799
<v Speaker 2>This person may have been born.

300
00:15:06.600 --> 00:15:09.279
<v Speaker 1>With Oh no penis.

301
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:12.919
<v Speaker 2>No, No, that's not it. You're stuck in one lane.

302
00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:15.159
<v Speaker 1>Just tell me yes or no when it comes to

303
00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:20.759
<v Speaker 1>the penis. Yes, got it used.

304
00:15:21.440 --> 00:15:24.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're gonna have to see the movie. That sounds exciting.

305
00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:27.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna go pay twenty five dollars to find

306
00:15:27.519 --> 00:15:29.080
<v Speaker 1>out what's going on with the penis.

307
00:15:29.360 --> 00:15:32.080
<v Speaker 2>Hey, Gary and Channon, Channon, it's great to have you back. Love.

308
00:15:32.120 --> 00:15:36.320
<v Speaker 2>When you're back, the show is just that much better. Anyway.

309
00:15:37.080 --> 00:15:39.039
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, this email, Yeah, I don't have a problem with

310
00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:40.159
<v Speaker 4>the email itself.

311
00:15:40.480 --> 00:15:42.000
<v Speaker 2>I have a problem with who it came from.

312
00:15:42.200 --> 00:15:42.399
<v Speaker 4>Uh.

313
00:15:42.440 --> 00:15:45.480
<v Speaker 2>If my boss asked me this question, fine, I'll respond.

314
00:15:45.639 --> 00:15:49.200
<v Speaker 2>But some guy named Elon that I don't even freaking know. No,

315
00:15:49.600 --> 00:15:50.679
<v Speaker 2>I'm not responding to that.

316
00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:54.360
<v Speaker 3>I guess about why people don't want to respond to Elon.

317
00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:58.240
<v Speaker 3>The email is the principle of the matter. They don't

318
00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:01.440
<v Speaker 3>believe that he has any right to know.

319
00:16:02.200 --> 00:16:07.120
<v Speaker 4>Well, to be clear, it does say please reply to

320
00:16:07.159 --> 00:16:09.600
<v Speaker 4>the email with approximately five bullets of what you accomplished

321
00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:12.320
<v Speaker 4>this week and c see your manager. So it's not

322
00:16:12.360 --> 00:16:14.519
<v Speaker 4>like Elon Musk is going to go through two point

323
00:16:14.559 --> 00:16:19.559
<v Speaker 4>three million emails from every federal employee and look at them.

324
00:16:20.279 --> 00:16:22.919
<v Speaker 4>It also is supposed to go to your manager too,

325
00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:27.720
<v Speaker 4>so that's if people care. For days, there have been

326
00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:30.840
<v Speaker 4>rumors that there's going to be a big immigration enforcement

327
00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:35.480
<v Speaker 4>sweep or sweeps throughout LA County and they.

328
00:16:35.320 --> 00:16:38.519
<v Speaker 1>Were going to raid the churches for the children or

329
00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:39.159
<v Speaker 1>something like that.

330
00:16:39.879 --> 00:16:42.919
<v Speaker 4>So it turns out ICE has not yet said whether

331
00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:47.120
<v Speaker 4>any special operations had taken place. They haven't arrested or

332
00:16:47.159 --> 00:16:51.720
<v Speaker 4>released any arrest figures for the day. Representatives for FBI,

333
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:55.440
<v Speaker 4>LA County Sheriff LPD referred all their questions to ICE

334
00:16:55.480 --> 00:16:58.600
<v Speaker 4>because those agencies are not in charge of whatever's going

335
00:16:58.639 --> 00:17:03.600
<v Speaker 4>on with immigration and customs enforcement. So officers at Metro

336
00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:05.960
<v Speaker 4>Detention Center down Town, LA, which is run by the

337
00:17:05.960 --> 00:17:07.960
<v Speaker 4>Federal Bureau of Prisons, had been asked to prepare for

338
00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:12.039
<v Speaker 4>an influx of new bookings from expected raids this weekend.

339
00:17:12.880 --> 00:17:16.480
<v Speaker 4>Typically their staff to get new inmates only on weekdays.

340
00:17:16.599 --> 00:17:20.039
<v Speaker 4>The handling weekend intakes actually requires ordering staff to come

341
00:17:20.079 --> 00:17:22.000
<v Speaker 4>in on their off days, and.

342
00:17:21.960 --> 00:17:22.519
<v Speaker 2>They were there.

343
00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:25.640
<v Speaker 4>They did show up, but by mid afternoon, the immigration

344
00:17:25.720 --> 00:17:28.319
<v Speaker 4>officials said they had dropped off fewer than a dozen

345
00:17:28.440 --> 00:17:33.000
<v Speaker 4>people for processing. So some sources said that they were

346
00:17:33.039 --> 00:17:35.000
<v Speaker 4>not getting the numbers that they want.

347
00:17:39.440 --> 00:17:43.359
<v Speaker 1>So there's been no children corralled at the schools nor

348
00:17:43.440 --> 00:17:47.279
<v Speaker 1>the churches. What do you argue that Los Angeles is

349
00:17:47.799 --> 00:17:55.359
<v Speaker 1>the city most populated with people who are here illegally, who, well,

350
00:17:55.400 --> 00:17:56.039
<v Speaker 1>just leave it at that.

351
00:17:56.759 --> 00:17:57.359
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if.

352
00:17:58.920 --> 00:18:00.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, probably Texas somewhere.

353
00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:03.559
<v Speaker 4>Top five for sure, but La Chicago, New York, I mean,

354
00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:07.000
<v Speaker 4>not just even compared to those places along the border.

355
00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:09.559
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, San Antonio, I guess Tucson.

356
00:18:09.720 --> 00:18:13.319
<v Speaker 1>My point is, if this administration was rounding up people

357
00:18:13.359 --> 00:18:17.599
<v Speaker 1>who are just here illegally, not people being targeted specifically

358
00:18:17.680 --> 00:18:20.480
<v Speaker 1>because they're here illegally and have committed heinous crimes, that

359
00:18:20.799 --> 00:18:24.279
<v Speaker 1>we would be hearing about this. US working in news,

360
00:18:24.519 --> 00:18:26.960
<v Speaker 1>US living in Los Angeles, we'd be hearing about this

361
00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:30.240
<v Speaker 1>every second of every day. If that was the case.

362
00:18:30.359 --> 00:18:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes, okay, that's I think that's the same.

363
00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:37.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad that it's not, you know, but like, let's

364
00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:43.319
<v Speaker 1>not start chaos and and you know, make people afraid

365
00:18:43.359 --> 00:18:45.880
<v Speaker 1>to leave their homes when there's no reason.

366
00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:46.079
<v Speaker 2>To do that.

367
00:18:46.160 --> 00:18:49.000
<v Speaker 1>If there was, we would be talking about it. Nobody's

368
00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:51.920
<v Speaker 1>hiding anything, but that's not what's going on. And I

369
00:18:51.960 --> 00:18:54.799
<v Speaker 1>just think that that needs to get, you know, oxygen,

370
00:18:54.880 --> 00:18:58.640
<v Speaker 1>so that people aren't living in fear. It's easy for

371
00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:00.519
<v Speaker 1>me to say. I know it's easy for me to say,

372
00:19:00.559 --> 00:19:06.599
<v Speaker 1>but I'm just I don't think it's doing anybody any favors.

373
00:19:06.759 --> 00:19:09.799
<v Speaker 1>With the communities that are that we're talking about, to

374
00:19:09.960 --> 00:19:12.880
<v Speaker 1>be fear mongering, well, it's just in the media. The

375
00:19:12.920 --> 00:19:15.440
<v Speaker 1>boy in the media to put it on the nightly news.

376
00:19:15.599 --> 00:19:18.279
<v Speaker 1>They're going into the schools and they're they're getting your children.

377
00:19:18.400 --> 00:19:20.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that that's doing anyone any favors.

378
00:19:20.559 --> 00:19:23.000
<v Speaker 4>And I don't know any kid in LA Unified, despite

379
00:19:23.039 --> 00:19:25.359
<v Speaker 4>the fact that they've all got their information cards about

380
00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:28.319
<v Speaker 4>what to do and say and their rights as fourteen

381
00:19:28.359 --> 00:19:32.680
<v Speaker 4>year olds, I don't think have we haven't heard anything

382
00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:35.519
<v Speaker 4>about any kid from LA Unified being approached by any

383
00:19:35.559 --> 00:19:38.720
<v Speaker 4>federal agent about their immigration status.

384
00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:43.279
<v Speaker 2>No, all right, when.

385
00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:47.960
<v Speaker 4>We come back, the best place to get Nikes should

386
00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:51.799
<v Speaker 4>be the Nike outlet, not the train as it rolls

387
00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:53.000
<v Speaker 4>through the Mohave Desert.

388
00:19:54.559 --> 00:19:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I can't wait to hear this story. And does

389
00:19:57.960 --> 00:20:02.480
<v Speaker 1>anybody hear about mass branded shoes and not think of

390
00:20:02.599 --> 00:20:04.200
<v Speaker 1>the cult mass murder?

391
00:20:05.960 --> 00:20:08.759
<v Speaker 2>So what do you mean the guy.

392
00:20:09.160 --> 00:20:10.960
<v Speaker 1>The people that all put on the Nike shoes?

393
00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:12.880
<v Speaker 2>Ah, yes, the old Heaven's Gate.

394
00:20:14.039 --> 00:20:17.000
<v Speaker 1>I can't get past that. Nike, can't get past that

395
00:20:17.079 --> 00:20:17.920
<v Speaker 1>in my mind.

396
00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:20.200
<v Speaker 2>In your mind? But you still own Nikes, don't you?

397
00:20:21.160 --> 00:20:22.799
<v Speaker 1>I don't for this reason.

398
00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:30.279
<v Speaker 4>Wow, it's good thing you let things go. Why thirty

399
00:20:30.359 --> 00:20:31.240
<v Speaker 4>five years old?

400
00:20:31.319 --> 00:20:38.599
<v Speaker 2>But ROBERTA. Flack has died the age of eighty.

401
00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:43.720
<v Speaker 1>Big ups to Lauren Hill too for bringing this back

402
00:20:43.759 --> 00:20:46.920
<v Speaker 1>into the nineties so that people could love this song.

403
00:20:47.000 --> 00:20:49.759
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm never really a big fan of remakes

404
00:20:49.880 --> 00:20:53.279
<v Speaker 1>unless there's a whole generation of people that just would

405
00:20:53.279 --> 00:20:56.119
<v Speaker 1>have never heard this song. Yeah, and that's definitely what

406
00:20:56.240 --> 00:20:57.119
<v Speaker 1>happened with this one.

407
00:20:59.079 --> 00:21:01.160
<v Speaker 4>That the first time I ever saw your fate, our

408
00:21:01.240 --> 00:21:03.400
<v Speaker 4>first time ever I saw your face. Both of those

409
00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:07.160
<v Speaker 4>songs in the seventies. She suffered a stroke about nine

410
00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:10.960
<v Speaker 4>years ago. A couple of years out at als she collapsed. Yeah,

411
00:21:10.960 --> 00:21:14.000
<v Speaker 4>she diagnosed with Louke Garrick's disease in twenty two, which

412
00:21:14.599 --> 00:21:17.880
<v Speaker 4>took her ability to sing. She won five Grammys in

413
00:21:17.920 --> 00:21:21.039
<v Speaker 4>her career, including a Lifetime Achievement award back in twenty twenty.

414
00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:25.119
<v Speaker 1>So we'll get into it coming up in swamp Watch.

415
00:21:25.279 --> 00:21:29.200
<v Speaker 1>But here's your teas. The Trump administration is now backing

416
00:21:29.279 --> 00:21:34.480
<v Speaker 1>off Elon Musk's weekend mandate that federal employees submit five

417
00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:36.839
<v Speaker 1>things they accomplished in the last week. So we'll have

418
00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:40.000
<v Speaker 1>all the details about how they're backpedaling that one and

419
00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:44.400
<v Speaker 1>what that means, and what the new edict to federal

420
00:21:45.359 --> 00:21:46.319
<v Speaker 1>organizations is.

421
00:21:47.079 --> 00:21:53.359
<v Speaker 4>Sixty five thousand railroad cargo thefts last year of forty percent.

422
00:21:53.440 --> 00:21:56.759
<v Speaker 4>It increased from the year before that, according to the

423
00:21:56.799 --> 00:22:01.519
<v Speaker 4>Association of American Railroads. Typically classified at his burglaries because

424
00:22:01.519 --> 00:22:05.000
<v Speaker 4>they don't often involve directly confronting any victims. They believe

425
00:22:05.119 --> 00:22:07.960
<v Speaker 4>to cost the nation's largest rail companies more than one

426
00:22:08.039 --> 00:22:10.119
<v Speaker 4>hundred million dollars.

427
00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:13.519
<v Speaker 1>And there's a lot of new sneaker releases. This is

428
00:22:13.519 --> 00:22:15.680
<v Speaker 1>a big thing I mean, like there's guys that are

429
00:22:15.680 --> 00:22:18.920
<v Speaker 1>into watches, some guys that are into watches and sneakers.

430
00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:23.200
<v Speaker 1>There are women that are into handbags and also sneakers sometimes,

431
00:22:23.200 --> 00:22:27.079
<v Speaker 1>but this is like a whole lifestyle of the new

432
00:22:27.200 --> 00:22:31.839
<v Speaker 1>Nike sneakers, and so it's understandable. I can't believe this

433
00:22:31.880 --> 00:22:34.440
<v Speaker 1>is the first time we're hearing about trains being targeted

434
00:22:34.759 --> 00:22:38.160
<v Speaker 1>for mass items when it comes to these shoes.

435
00:22:38.319 --> 00:22:41.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and it's a weird it's not. It's not that weird.

436
00:22:41.640 --> 00:22:44.200
<v Speaker 4>I mean, the idea of a train robbery probably goes

437
00:22:44.240 --> 00:22:47.000
<v Speaker 4>back one hundred and forty years, but the way that

438
00:22:47.039 --> 00:22:51.319
<v Speaker 4>they're doing it now, especially because trains themselves do not

439
00:22:51.640 --> 00:22:53.359
<v Speaker 4>have the staff.

440
00:22:52.880 --> 00:22:54.680
<v Speaker 2>That they used to one hundred years ago.

441
00:22:54.799 --> 00:22:57.200
<v Speaker 4>You may have a couple of conductors, but you don't

442
00:22:57.200 --> 00:23:02.680
<v Speaker 4>have a train wide that exists to keep an eye

443
00:23:02.680 --> 00:23:05.599
<v Speaker 4>on all that stuff. So you've got these cargo containers

444
00:23:05.680 --> 00:23:09.960
<v Speaker 4>basically that roll through in this case the Mohave Desert,

445
00:23:10.079 --> 00:23:12.279
<v Speaker 4>just kind of out in the middle of nowhere. Somebody

446
00:23:12.279 --> 00:23:16.400
<v Speaker 4>will go along, either they're tipped off to the contents

447
00:23:16.480 --> 00:23:18.960
<v Speaker 4>of that container from somebody in the warehouse or somebody

448
00:23:19.000 --> 00:23:21.720
<v Speaker 4>else in the shipping industry, or they just look for

449
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:26.559
<v Speaker 4>those containers with the biggest locks on them, because those

450
00:23:26.599 --> 00:23:29.839
<v Speaker 4>are the ones that they know contain the most valuable

451
00:23:30.480 --> 00:23:33.759
<v Speaker 4>products whatever it is, cut the lock, and then even

452
00:23:33.799 --> 00:23:37.160
<v Speaker 4>while the train is still moving in some cases, they

453
00:23:37.200 --> 00:23:40.160
<v Speaker 4>start unloading that stuff just by throwing it off to

454
00:23:40.240 --> 00:23:43.880
<v Speaker 4>the side of the railroad tracks. And then whoever their

455
00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:48.759
<v Speaker 4>comrades are, they roll up and just throw the boxes

456
00:23:48.799 --> 00:23:50.960
<v Speaker 4>of shoes in this case, into the back of a

457
00:23:51.119 --> 00:23:52.559
<v Speaker 4>box truck and take off.

458
00:23:53.200 --> 00:23:54.079
<v Speaker 2>Okay, hot tip.

459
00:23:54.160 --> 00:23:56.200
<v Speaker 1>If you want some of these shoes and you go

460
00:23:56.240 --> 00:23:59.039
<v Speaker 1>to places like you know santi Alli, I mean, maybe

461
00:23:59.079 --> 00:24:01.640
<v Speaker 1>you know a guy that will meet you in the

462
00:24:01.720 --> 00:24:04.799
<v Speaker 1>valley and operate out of his trunk of his like

463
00:24:04.880 --> 00:24:07.599
<v Speaker 1>nineteen ninety four Volvo. But if you don't and you

464
00:24:07.640 --> 00:24:10.440
<v Speaker 1>go to like santi Alli, you gotta go behind the

465
00:24:10.480 --> 00:24:12.759
<v Speaker 1>stuff that's in the front. Like you go by the stalls,

466
00:24:12.759 --> 00:24:14.720
<v Speaker 1>and there's the stuff that's in the front of the stalls.

467
00:24:15.079 --> 00:24:17.119
<v Speaker 1>You got to find the shady looking guy that's like

468
00:24:17.240 --> 00:24:19.680
<v Speaker 1>back like near the curtain and kind of make eye

469
00:24:19.720 --> 00:24:22.799
<v Speaker 1>contact and initiate conversation with him, because all the good

470
00:24:22.839 --> 00:24:25.960
<v Speaker 1>stuff is behind that curtain. They don't put the good

471
00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:28.640
<v Speaker 1>the real stuff that's taken off the trains up front

472
00:24:28.640 --> 00:24:31.319
<v Speaker 1>at Santi Ali because of the raids. You gotta go

473
00:24:31.440 --> 00:24:33.519
<v Speaker 1>to the guy near the curtain at the back of

474
00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:34.160
<v Speaker 1>the stalls.

475
00:24:34.759 --> 00:24:35.200
<v Speaker 2>Join us.

476
00:24:35.200 --> 00:24:37.559
<v Speaker 4>Next segment when Shannon tells us how to buy the

477
00:24:37.599 --> 00:24:39.119
<v Speaker 4>best cocaine.

478
00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:44.319
<v Speaker 1>Well, kids, you can't do it anymore. They put fentanyl.

479
00:24:44.599 --> 00:24:45.480
<v Speaker 2>Buy the cocaine.

480
00:24:45.759 --> 00:24:46.599
<v Speaker 1>Nineties are over.

481
00:24:49.240 --> 00:24:54.400
<v Speaker 4>In paren Arizona, thieves cut an air brake hose on

482
00:24:54.480 --> 00:24:57.480
<v Speaker 4>a BNSF freight train back in the middle of January.

483
00:24:57.599 --> 00:25:03.200
<v Speaker 4>They unloaded almost two thousand and pairs of unreleased Nikes

484
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:06.279
<v Speaker 4>that were worth more than four hundred and forty thousand dollars.

485
00:25:06.319 --> 00:25:10.839
<v Speaker 4>These were most of them were the Nigel Serve Nigel

486
00:25:11.039 --> 00:25:16.319
<v Speaker 4>ser Sylvester Air Jordan fours, which aren't actually available in

487
00:25:16.359 --> 00:25:18.279
<v Speaker 4>the public until the middle of next month.

488
00:25:20.200 --> 00:25:21.640
<v Speaker 2>Who is pure?

489
00:25:21.839 --> 00:25:24.920
<v Speaker 1>I think it's called a piata, a picture of I

490
00:25:24.920 --> 00:25:28.519
<v Speaker 1>think it's marrying Jesus and somebody else just found that.

491
00:25:28.440 --> 00:25:30.880
<v Speaker 2>In this room too, and somebody else.

492
00:25:31.640 --> 00:25:33.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't know who it is. It might be

493
00:25:33.240 --> 00:25:36.559
<v Speaker 1>like an angel like Gabriel, right, is that the thing Gabriel?

494
00:25:37.119 --> 00:25:38.200
<v Speaker 2>Gabriel like the angel?

495
00:25:38.279 --> 00:25:40.279
<v Speaker 1>Was that an angel that was around with Jesus being

496
00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:42.240
<v Speaker 1>born angel I feel like that sounds right.

497
00:25:42.279 --> 00:25:43.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't get but I don't know who would be

498
00:25:44.400 --> 00:25:45.519
<v Speaker 2>depicted with it, was it.

499
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:46.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to take a picture of it and send

500
00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:47.319
<v Speaker 1>it to you.

501
00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:51.480
<v Speaker 4>Okay, I'll run it through my my Cassine.

502
00:25:51.519 --> 00:25:53.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna send it to Keana because you said that

503
00:25:53.960 --> 00:25:56.559
<v Speaker 1>picking the new pope was like picking somebody out of

504
00:25:56.559 --> 00:25:59.680
<v Speaker 1>the farm season for your utility. Still base, No, no, no,

505
00:25:59.759 --> 00:26:02.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying you are most sacriligious. I can't even get

506
00:26:02.839 --> 00:26:03.240
<v Speaker 1>over it.

507
00:26:03.319 --> 00:26:05.960
<v Speaker 4>Oh boy, don't start with the feedback that we've already

508
00:26:05.960 --> 00:26:07.640
<v Speaker 4>gotten about how sacriligious we're being.

509
00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:09.519
<v Speaker 2>But it is more.

510
00:26:10.200 --> 00:26:13.160
<v Speaker 4>It's just that there is there is a mechanism, like

511
00:26:13.240 --> 00:26:16.680
<v Speaker 4>there's some I mean, you went through the farm system already.

512
00:26:16.720 --> 00:26:19.319
<v Speaker 4>You talked about the three or four different candidates that

513
00:26:19.359 --> 00:26:20.640
<v Speaker 4>could be elevator.

514
00:26:20.279 --> 00:26:22.640
<v Speaker 1>That's on the farm system. This is like shohe O

515
00:26:22.799 --> 00:26:27.359
<v Speaker 1>Tani of the pope candidates. This isn't like somebody who's

516
00:26:27.400 --> 00:26:30.680
<v Speaker 1>just some you know, nineteen year old out of Tulsa

517
00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:33.480
<v Speaker 1>that got brought up through the Oakland A's. This is

518
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:36.279
<v Speaker 1>like the krem de la Creme. This is like Juan Soto.

519
00:26:36.400 --> 00:26:40.559
<v Speaker 1>This is like the all star team of people that's

520
00:26:40.559 --> 00:26:42.880
<v Speaker 1>going to be selected out of to become the pope.

521
00:26:44.880 --> 00:26:53.400
<v Speaker 4>Defensive Catholics, You're damn right. Nobody wants the Pope to pass.

522
00:26:54.319 --> 00:26:56.960
<v Speaker 4>But I'm trying to die, you guys, I'm not saying.

523
00:26:57.000 --> 00:26:59.000
<v Speaker 4>I'm not saying because I wanted to happen. This is

524
00:26:59.039 --> 00:27:01.839
<v Speaker 4>somebody who's had a series of health issues. He's eighty eight,

525
00:27:01.920 --> 00:27:03.599
<v Speaker 4>and I think we need to make peace with that.

526
00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:09.279
<v Speaker 4>I believe that he's gonna have some space at the

527
00:27:09.279 --> 00:27:12.480
<v Speaker 4>front of the line that he's great. I love that Pope.

528
00:27:12.480 --> 00:27:14.599
<v Speaker 4>By the way, he was a great pope. Which one

529
00:27:15.680 --> 00:27:16.599
<v Speaker 4>Tho's the one who's dying.

530
00:27:16.680 --> 00:27:20.200
<v Speaker 2>He's still the Pope. No, I know I'm talking about

531
00:27:20.240 --> 00:27:21.279
<v Speaker 2>him in past tens.

532
00:27:22.680 --> 00:27:24.200
<v Speaker 1>We all deal with grief differently.

533
00:27:24.319 --> 00:27:25.119
<v Speaker 2>I guess something.

534
00:27:25.200 --> 00:27:28.440
<v Speaker 1>There's no playbook. I learned it from Mark Garregist.

535
00:27:28.480 --> 00:27:29.559
