Speaker 1: You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
Speaker 1: six forty k.
Speaker 2: I AM six forty Bill Handle. Here.
Speaker 3: It is a Tuesday morning, December tenth, and Southern California
Speaker 3: fire season is here. No surprise, major fire going on
Speaker 3: right now in Malibu. Up to this point, eighteen hundred
Speaker 3: acres that has been reported. We're going to get a
Speaker 3: press conference from the fire department coming up at eight.
Speaker 2: We'll get an update on the fire. Now, when you
Speaker 2: think of.
Speaker 3: Eighteen hundred acres, it's not a huge deal unless it's
Speaker 3: in an area that is particularly dense, although Malibu is not.
Speaker 3: But it's Malibu, and it's the homes are astronomically priced.
Speaker 3: Malibu has gone through several of these. So we're going
Speaker 3: to have Chuck Lovers coming in at seven thirty. Chuck
Speaker 3: is a friend of mine who was with La County
Speaker 3: Fire for thirty years and this is his wheelhouse, this
Speaker 3: is what he did for thirty years. And then Michael Monks,
Speaker 3: KFI reporter. He's coming in at seven twenty. So as
Speaker 3: of right now, Amy, I'm going to throw it to
Speaker 3: you and talk about evacuations and the various centers where
Speaker 3: people can go.
Speaker 2: Red Cross centers.
Speaker 4: Okay, so we've got the evacuations in place for east
Speaker 4: of Las Virgins, between Maulholland Highway to the north and
Speaker 4: Pyuma Road to the south, between Stunt Road to the
Speaker 4: north and Los Florists to the south, east of Carbon
Speaker 4: Beach Terrace, west of Old Malibu Road, north of Pacific
Speaker 4: Coast Highway, and then Malibu Canyon Road from Payuma Road
Speaker 4: to Pacific Coast Highway. A shelter set up at Palisades
Speaker 4: Recreation Center that's at eight five to one Alma Real
Speaker 4: Drive in Pacific Palisades. And then if you've got animals
Speaker 4: that need to be taken to shelters, they are open
Speaker 4: at Agora Animal Care Center in Agora Hills and also
Speaker 4: Pierce College in Woodland Hills. About two thousand are under
Speaker 4: mandatory EVACUS orders at this point. Also, the students and
Speaker 4: staff at Pepperdine were not evacuated. They were told to
Speaker 4: shelter in place. They've moved to the middle of campus
Speaker 4: and have been hanging out in the library overnight. The
Speaker 4: officials have said this is the safest place for you
Speaker 4: to be. Classes have been canceled for today, finals canceled
Speaker 4: for tomorrow, and Also, all schools in Malibu are closed
Speaker 4: today because of the fire.
Speaker 3: We had the director of communications for Pepperdine earlier this morning,
Speaker 3: Mike Friele, and he talked about the campus. If you've
Speaker 3: ever been to Pepperdine, it is the most beautiful campus
Speaker 3: in the world. It overlooks Malibu and it's just absolutely gorgeous.
Speaker 2: And is surrounded behind it.
Speaker 3: In front is this huge expanse of lawn which clearly
Speaker 3: is not going to burn, but it is surrounded. And
Speaker 3: Mike was saying that Pepperdine was built with fires in mind,
Speaker 3: that it is the safest place to be if you
Speaker 3: are going to be near a fire.
Speaker 5: Also, I've been going through social media and hours ago
Speaker 5: when the fire came just kissing Pepperdine, as you said,
Speaker 5: they were sheltering in place. They have these They're in
Speaker 5: the kind of the center of the campus, but they
Speaker 5: have these massive windows where they are sheltering in place.
Speaker 5: The videos that were taken by students in there on
Speaker 5: their phones that they're posting on social media are insane.
Speaker 5: It looks like the fire was surrounding them at that time.
Speaker 5: Thankfully at this point it's moved away. But those photos
Speaker 5: that they've taken and posted many of them to social
Speaker 5: media were just walls of orange and yellow.
Speaker 3: We have some lines open, by the way, and we
Speaker 3: are going to be taking in calls. If you are
Speaker 3: in a particular place or a place where something different
Speaker 3: is happening, we'd love to have you call in because
Speaker 3: now you become reporters out there, and the numbers eight
Speaker 3: hundred and five two zero one five three four, eight
Speaker 3: hundred and five to zero one five three four, And
Speaker 3: unless you sound like a complete imbecile and a moron,
Speaker 3: there's a good chance that we're gonna put you on
Speaker 3: to give us some insight.
Speaker 2: Also, you can go to.
Speaker 3: The iHeart app the KFI page microphone in the upper
Speaker 3: right hand corner, and you can leave a message as
Speaker 3: to particularly if you're running out the front door and
Speaker 3: your butt is on fire, that would you know?
Speaker 2: That would give us some insight that we.
Speaker 3: Don't have a little bit later on, Chuck Lovers is
Speaker 3: going to join us LA Fire, La County Fire for
Speaker 3: thirty years. We've got so much going on, And the
Speaker 3: mike was saying, no, it was you Amy that was saying.
Speaker 3: The Red Cross is already out there in force, and
Speaker 3: let's see if we can get some somebody from the
Speaker 3: Red Cross to report to us and tell us what
Speaker 3: they did and what's going on, because Michael or yeah,
Speaker 3: Mike A. Monks said he was at one of these
Speaker 3: evacuation centers and no one was showing.
Speaker 4: Up and they said there was like twelve cars there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was like nobody and they were eating all
Speaker 3: the snacks. So if you're interested in free snacks, just
Speaker 3: to go to the Malibu Evacuation Center and it's like
Speaker 3: unlimited Cheetos and coind bars and you know, you.
Speaker 5: Can have a little bit of breakfast on the Red
Speaker 5: Cross Bill. Yes, Amy has updated the acreage on.
Speaker 4: That, okay, Amy, Yeah, it's just up to twenty two
Speaker 4: hundred acres.
Speaker 3: Okay, so it has well, I guess good news, and
Speaker 3: it has only increased four hundred acres from five am
Speaker 3: this morning because it was moving very very quickly. The
Speaker 3: problem is that the winds are now going to hit
Speaker 3: and between I guess now in nine point thirty they
Speaker 3: expect the major gusts. That's it's gonna be tough.
Speaker 2: Homes on fire. We don't know how many.
Speaker 3: This is very high end stuff. And then before we
Speaker 3: get to Michael maybe I'll do that a little bit
Speaker 3: later on. And that is how many homes are not
Speaker 3: insured because in fire areas you can't get insurance, and
Speaker 3: so you have homes and the tens of millions of
Speaker 3: dollars up in that area and the owners are self insuring.
Speaker 3: That's just another way for saying no insurance or the
Speaker 3: California Fair Plan, which pays you well relative to the
Speaker 3: cost of these homes, virtually nothing. Michael Monks KFI reporter
Speaker 3: moving around the various fire sits. He's at PCH now
Speaker 3: next to the fire. Michael, what's the latest.
Speaker 6: I'm on PCH and it's a rare opportunity to get
Speaker 6: the chance to drive on this iconic road with no
Speaker 6: other cars around now the Sheriff's office allowing us to
Speaker 6: go by because we're members of the media, and that
Speaker 6: was quite surreal. And I don't know if you can
Speaker 6: hear I'm gonna hold the mic up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we can hear it.
Speaker 6: You got the chopper and this is one of those
Speaker 6: big choppers with the double propellers on top. And I've
Speaker 6: seen several of these go past, or maybe a couple
Speaker 6: of them the same vehicle. Not sure, but to go
Speaker 6: address this fire, they are finally able to attack it
Speaker 6: from the air, and maybe that's one of the reasons
Speaker 6: that spread has not been as fast as it was
Speaker 6: this morning. Man, it took off really crazily this morning.
Speaker 6: Amy came in very early and she noted what the
Speaker 6: acreage was at that time compared to what it was
Speaker 6: by even five point thirty six o'clock. It was just
Speaker 6: spreading exponentially fast, and that forced a lot of people
Speaker 6: out of their homes. And what I think I might
Speaker 6: be seeing on PCH are a lot of vehicles that
Speaker 6: are parked, maybe of residents who just came down this
Speaker 6: way to get away rather than going to an evacuation center,
Speaker 6: posting up on the side of the ocean for a
Speaker 6: little while until things get figured out. Because there were
Speaker 6: a lot of vehicles just parked on the side.
Speaker 2: Of the road.
Speaker 6: A lot of food trucks also parked along there, and
Speaker 6: it looked like business as usual for those guys. Meanwhile,
Speaker 6: I see a heavy, heavy plume of smoke coming off
Speaker 6: the hillside right now, with those choppers from above starting
Speaker 6: to address that situation. It's one of these quintessential twenty
Speaker 6: first century California images Right now here coast in Malibu,
Speaker 6: where you've got a beautiful sunrise, the silhouette of the
Speaker 6: palm trees and seabirds dancing around it. Just everything you
Speaker 6: might imagine when you hear the word California, and then
Speaker 6: in the background a mountain is burning.
Speaker 2: Now, how close to pch are the flames? What can
Speaker 2: you actually see right now?
Speaker 6: It's mostly just hazy, thick smoke that I'm seeing from
Speaker 6: right here in I'm on PCH Atlas Flores outside of Dukes.
Speaker 2: He's not going back a closer, and we're losing you
Speaker 2: in horrible line. At this point, we just lost you.
Speaker 3: I want to repeat, at last I heard it was
Speaker 3: you were outside of Duke's.
Speaker 4: You know, they've been saying that they've had bad Selle
Speaker 4: service because of the and everything going on there all morning.
Speaker 3: And Dukes is a landmark in Malibu. I've beaten there,
Speaker 3: and so have sure thousands of people. It's been around
Speaker 3: for decades and decades, So this is scary stuff. We're
Speaker 3: trying to get Lindsay's cousin who is at this point.
Speaker 3: He and his wife live in Malibu and they were.
Speaker 2: Victims of the previous.
Speaker 3: Malibu fire, lost everything, lost everything, and had to rebuild,
Speaker 3: and there she happens to be a interior designer and
Speaker 3: is helping us with our home. And I think the
Speaker 3: worst part of it is she has our doorknobs, and
Speaker 3: this is that's.
Speaker 2: Really distressful for your new home.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're switching out doorknobs and she she has them
Speaker 3: all And that's probably the worst part of this fire.
Speaker 2: You are not a good person, thank you.
Speaker 5: So Duke's Balibu there just across the one freeway, the
Speaker 5: Rombla Pacifico Street. There it sounds like where are Michael
Speaker 5: monks Is? There are a row of shops across the
Speaker 5: way there. But even more importantly, you can see that
Speaker 5: that is lined with very very expensive homes there right
Speaker 5: just to the side of the mobile gas station right
Speaker 5: there in that same area.
Speaker 3: Yeah, when we talk about expensive homes, if you're talking
Speaker 3: near or a view of the ocean from the.
Speaker 2: Bluff stuff above.
Speaker 3: Expensive is on a level that most people in this
Speaker 3: country have no idea ten fifteen, twenty million dollar homes.
Speaker 3: And as I unfortunately that makes news. One hundred people
Speaker 3: losing their homes that are in the four hundred thousand
Speaker 3: dollar range, that is less news than a movie Star
Speaker 3: or a major titan of business losing a twenty million
Speaker 3: dollar home. It goes to show you just where we
Speaker 3: sit in the iconicness. I guess it's the word of
Speaker 3: southern California.
Speaker 2: As you pointed out.
Speaker 5: If you're familiar with the area, that's the LaCosta Beach
Speaker 5: right there, and that's not far not even a mile.
Speaker 5: I don't think from the La County Fire Department Station seventy,
Speaker 5: which isn't far from there either. Of course, they're probably
Speaker 5: quite active in all of this as well.
Speaker 3: Hey, Amy, do we have any idea of the number
Speaker 3: of firefighters out there there? Usually we get that number,
Speaker 3: how many fire fighting teams where they're coming from.
Speaker 2: When you have fires they come from out of state.
Speaker 3: I'm assuming it's not that big a fire that is
Speaker 3: not being handled locally.
Speaker 4: It is being handled locally, but they have sent out
Speaker 4: teams from other areas have joined in, like La City
Speaker 4: has joined in the fire with La County, and then
Speaker 4: they're also there are other agencies that have come to
Speaker 4: the area. I don't have a number for you, but
Speaker 4: they're not fighting at alone in La County.
Speaker 2: And usually and I don't know what.
Speaker 3: The terrain is, I mean clearly it's mountainous, but we
Speaker 3: have not heard reports yet of the terrain being inaccessible
Speaker 3: by fire crews or fire fighters, trucks, water trucks, et cetera.
Speaker 3: So they send in the fire, not even fire fighters.
Speaker 2: They're digging. They're digging these.
Speaker 3: Fire breaks to try to stop and I don't know
Speaker 3: if that's happening yet, but I'm assuming that the only
Speaker 3: way that they're fighting parts of this fire is with
Speaker 3: air drops, which is fairly new technology or being used.
Speaker 2: I mean, technology is around, but in a big way.
Speaker 4: And the Super Scoopers have taken off. They had to
Speaker 4: wait till daylight, but so they had water dropping helicopters
Speaker 4: doing drops overnight. But now the Super Scoopers are up
Speaker 4: and they're there.
Speaker 2: The Super Scoopers are really interesting.
Speaker 3: Those are those yellow airplanes that are based out of
Speaker 3: Vanuy's Airport and they're Canadian airplanes, two of them, and
Speaker 3: they're leased by the county.
Speaker 2: They're rented where they.
Speaker 3: Literally just go to the nearest Hertz rent a plane
Speaker 3: office and just lease them and they're used.
Speaker 2: They're just parked there.
Speaker 3: And I'd like to talk to Chuck Lovers Chuck a
Speaker 3: friend of mine, for I don't know.
Speaker 2: Twenty five years or more.
Speaker 3: Who's spent almost thirty years with cal fire fighting these
Speaker 3: kinds of fires. So, Chuck, as you are watching this,
Speaker 3: what is going on? Typically because you know, so what's
Speaker 3: happening in terms of the fire fighting itself? Who's fighting?
Speaker 3: How many units would you normally call? Just tell us
Speaker 3: about some of the inside baseball here?
Speaker 1: Okay, well, good morning bill. Typically an initial brush response,
Speaker 1: you'll get a couple of crews, five engines, dozers, helicopters,
Speaker 1: and then they'll reassess, you know, their needs after they
Speaker 1: get on sea. And right now we have probably cruise
Speaker 1: from Vincetra helping us out. CDF is probably helping us out.
Speaker 1: You know, CalFire, I'm not CalFire, I'm LA County.
Speaker 2: And did I mention cal Fire County?
Speaker 1: I understand I always get anyway with.
Speaker 2: La County. Let me do that again, La County.
Speaker 1: All right, we all look alike. Anyway, we have we
Speaker 1: have automatic aid agreements with the other departments around us.
Speaker 1: They will fill in. Actually, when we send fire engines
Speaker 1: to the fire, we will fill behind with other fire
Speaker 1: engines from other agencies. So we keep everybody protected as
Speaker 1: much as we can, but what they're doing on the scene,
Speaker 1: they can't do anything at the head of the fire
Speaker 1: because the flying length is just too big. But they
Speaker 1: will be crews will be flanking the fire. And what
Speaker 1: that means the sides, Yeah, you know, starting at the
Speaker 1: origin and working all the way down to the coast.
Speaker 2: And does that mean containment?
Speaker 3: When they talk about containment, those areas surrounding the fire
Speaker 3: are you know, covered by the firefighters and it's only
Speaker 3: where the fire is moving forward. Is the fire not
Speaker 3: being fought? Do I have that correctly?
Speaker 1: Well, the head of the fire, they're right in front
Speaker 1: of the fire, but we will have crews flanking it
Speaker 1: wherever we can get a crew in the flame link
Speaker 1: determines what we can do. The dozers, you know, they
Speaker 1: can handle stuff, you know, ten, ten, fifteen feet tall sometimes,
Speaker 1: but the hand crew is someone on foot only you know,
Speaker 1: they can't go against anything feet, So that's kind of
Speaker 1: our criteria. Of course, you know we fudge those numbers
Speaker 1: sometimes so.
Speaker 2: They will go ahead.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, no, no, go ahead, No, I'm just saying
Speaker 1: that we start at the origin of the fire and
Speaker 1: just start cutting line and separating the fire from other
Speaker 1: stuff that hasn't burnt yet.
Speaker 3: Now, if you have crews from various agencies, who is
Speaker 3: telling what fire truck to go there and what fire
Speaker 3: crew to go We're there?
Speaker 1: Okay, Well we have pre planned you know, every every area.
Speaker 3: UH.
Speaker 1: The Jurisdictional Engines Station seventy, like you mentioned on air,
Speaker 1: it's the headquarters from Malibu, and they will have pre
Speaker 1: plans depending on what canyon is burning because we've we've
Speaker 1: we've done this before, UH, and they will assign a
Speaker 1: number of crews we have. We break down into what
Speaker 1: we call strike teams. A strike team for crews is
Speaker 1: two crews with it with a captain and a chief
Speaker 1: and that we will deploy them as needed. And then
Speaker 1: when crews come in from other agencies, they're already you know,
Speaker 1: they're already in strike team configuration. UH. An engine strike
Speaker 1: team will be five engines, you know, a total of
Speaker 1: twenty men are firefighters and and achieve and then we
Speaker 1: will assign them as necessary, depending on whether they're mostly
Speaker 1: structure protection or there or they're geared for brush.
Speaker 2: And who makes the decision.
Speaker 3: Someone ultimately has to make a decision as to which
Speaker 3: strike team goes where and for even the air drop,
Speaker 3: Where does it go in this valley or that value
Speaker 3: when both are on fire?
Speaker 2: Correct?
Speaker 1: Well, the ICs system incident command system is set up
Speaker 1: immediately on anything that looks like it's going to grow.
Speaker 1: The chief will get out his maps and he'll look
Speaker 1: around and he will start deploying at that point and
Speaker 1: the system will grow. Other chiefs will come in to
Speaker 1: assist p IO, people come in, The National Weather Service
Speaker 1: sends people in. You mentioned the Red Cross. They will
Speaker 1: come in and logistically, because like you said, we've done
Speaker 1: this before, people just fall in line, just like lining
Speaker 1: up a lunch wagon. Everybody just lines up and takes
Speaker 1: their turn. As things break out, we will deploy other units.
Speaker 1: We will put some units in reserve to attack in
Speaker 1: an area where something spot fires ahead, the helicopters will
Speaker 1: go ahead.
Speaker 3: Now, in terms of the knowledge of that area, you
Speaker 3: said you know the area, how specific do you know
Speaker 3: the area? Do you know every ridge, every valley?
Speaker 7: Uh?
Speaker 2: Literally, where everything is with specificity?
Speaker 1: Pretty much? You know, we know where water is. We
Speaker 1: know what you know because we have water staged in
Speaker 1: cisterns and we and yes, the local jurisdiction engines. That's
Speaker 1: what we do on a daily basis. We just drive
Speaker 1: the motorways and verify things. You know, even after the
Speaker 1: fire is over, we're going to drive those things. We're
Speaker 1: going to be there weeks after this fire is out
Speaker 1: and all the news people have gone home, because we
Speaker 1: will will be prepared. We were preparing for the winter rains.
Speaker 3: You know, I'll bet you, and that's when you relax
Speaker 3: when the rains come. Chuck, thank you so much. We're
Speaker 3: gonna come back to you. I mean, you're on top
Speaker 3: of this, watching this thing, and there's no one has
Speaker 3: more expertise than you do.
Speaker 2: La County Fire.
Speaker 1: Correct, all right, Chucks County Fire. But there are a
Speaker 1: lot of people that are the guys are on the
Speaker 1: line are very knowledgeable.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: I worked with him for years.
Speaker 2: Take care, Thanks.
Speaker 1: Chuck, Okay, any time, Bill.
Speaker 2: All Right. Chuck's a very interesting guy.
Speaker 3: Chuck is extraordinary in terms of his ability, and he
Speaker 3: turned down promotions because he wanted to fight fires.
Speaker 2: He wanted to be at the edge of the bay indet.
Speaker 2: Very very interesting guy.
Speaker 3: Mimi Teller is a spokesperson for the Red Cross, LA
Speaker 3: and Mimi, thank you for joining us.
Speaker 2: Red Cross extraordinary organization.
Speaker 3: First of all, where are you right now the Red
Speaker 3: Cross centers, what are you doing?
Speaker 2: And then I have a bunch of follow up questions.
Speaker 7: Yeah, good morning Bill. We have an evacuation shelter located
Speaker 7: in Pacific Palisades eight five to one, Alama Reale, and
Speaker 7: we have twelve residents at the moment, including some goats,
Speaker 7: and we're giving them a safe, warm place to stay
Speaker 7: and some food.
Speaker 3: Well, here's something important. What kind of food? And is
Speaker 3: it worthwhile coming down there for breakfast?
Speaker 7: Well, right now we just have continental fare, but we're
Speaker 7: going to have a nice warm lunch and if we
Speaker 7: need to, we'll have a nice warm dinner with warm
Speaker 7: breakfast tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Huh, that doesn't sound bad. Okay, fair enough.
Speaker 3: Now going back to the centers and getting a little
Speaker 3: bit more serious. Are these pre planned locations or does
Speaker 3: do the fire authorities tell you this is where we'd like.
Speaker 2: You to go.
Speaker 7: Now, the Red Class relationships with community partners throughout the
Speaker 7: whole county. So when we know that we're going to
Speaker 7: need to stand up a shelter, we rechat to those partners.
Speaker 3: Okay, so how close to the fires do you try
Speaker 3: to get? Uh?
Speaker 7: You know, we want to make sure that people can
Speaker 7: get here easily and quickly, so they also need to
Speaker 7: remain safe. So we were initially looking at some other
Speaker 7: locations like Malibu High School, but we wouldn't have had
Speaker 7: any road access, so we were able to be here
Speaker 7: at the Palisades Rec Center.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: So, typically when you set up these centers, how do
Speaker 3: you you know, anticipate how long people are going to
Speaker 3: say stay there?
Speaker 2: And what do you plan for?
Speaker 3: And you didn't tell me what people are having for
Speaker 3: breakfast breakfast or lunch either.
Speaker 7: Right now we have some chocolate cake and bagels and
Speaker 7: cream cheese, and there's even ramen in there, and some coffee.
Speaker 7: Usually we want to make sure they have all the
Speaker 7: basic facilities, hot showers, restrooms, of course, that they are
Speaker 7: accommodating for anyone with Adams and as we talked about,
Speaker 7: in proximity to where they live. Sometimes though, we have
Speaker 7: to shift our shelters. I know once that I was
Speaker 7: staying overnight in a basketball gym and the school needed
Speaker 7: to resume activities and we have to move to a church.
Speaker 3: Do you bring in your own you know, bathroom facilities?
Speaker 3: I know they're portable, toilets certainly about it, not just
Speaker 3: potty you know, you know those construction bathrooms, but I'm
Speaker 3: talking about you know, major trailers, eighteen wheelers that have
Speaker 3: bathrooms that have showers.
Speaker 2: I'm assuming you have a ton of those, and are
Speaker 2: those brought in?
Speaker 7: Actually, we always try and identify a location that already
Speaker 7: has facilities. We use a lot of gyms, school gyms
Speaker 7: or recreation centers, so for the most part, they usually
Speaker 7: come equipped with that. In the past us there have
Speaker 7: been times where we have brought in the fancy bathrooms
Speaker 7: and showers. Never a big rig, but you know, maybe
Speaker 7: two three restrooms and showers. I've seen that before.
Speaker 3: All right, And so you have a shelter now which
Speaker 3: has relatively few people, how many do you anticipate who
Speaker 3: plans how big a shelter facility you have to put out?
Speaker 7: Well, we work with again with our community partners, specifically
Speaker 7: the fire and we like to know the area that's affected,
Speaker 7: how many people they estimate are being evacuated, and we
Speaker 7: base it on that and also you know, just over
Speaker 7: history and the numbers and the demographics. Also with Malibu,
Speaker 7: a lot of people often look for hotels. They are
Speaker 7: friends and family, so you know, we try and accommodate
Speaker 7: as many as we can knowing how many people are
Speaker 7: being evacuated for this incident. This facility can take up
Speaker 7: to eight hundred people.
Speaker 2: Wow, and you've got it, and you've got a dozen
Speaker 2: only at this point.
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, I think a lot of people are
Speaker 7: still figuring things out. There's a lot of people that
Speaker 7: don't know that we're even here. I do know a
Speaker 7: lot of people stop. I decided to go to a
Speaker 7: hotel for whatever their reason.
Speaker 2: And you set up beds. I'm assuming cots where people
Speaker 2: can sleep in these areas, correct.
Speaker 7: Yeah, we have cuts and fancy, top of the line
Speaker 7: Red Cross blankets.
Speaker 2: You do an extraordinary job, Mimi.
Speaker 3: I have tell you, I've always been super super impressed
Speaker 3: about how the Red Cross. Hobviously do some reporting up
Speaker 3: until then and Amy coming back. We're going to give
Speaker 3: you the latest and then we'll see what the authorities
Speaker 3: have to say in that presser.
Speaker 2: You've been listening to The Bill Handle Show.
Speaker 3: Catch My Show Monday through Friday six am to nine am,
Speaker 3: and anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
