Speaker 4: rain a little bit heavier. So they are saying that
Speaker 4: in the burn areas we could get three quarters to
Speaker 4: an inch of rain Hopefully it'll fall more slowly like
Speaker 4: this last storm and it won't cause any mud slides
Speaker 4: or anything like that. But they are prepared for it.
Speaker 2: Are they anticipating much lights?
Speaker 4: The threat is there, okay, but they're not expecting any

Speaker 3: It's just what's it like to be in the room
Speaker 3: with Trump? What's the flavor? It just goes on and
Speaker 3: on and do people roll their eyes? For example, as
Speaker 3: Trump goes on and on and repeats himself and and
Speaker 3: goes flying off the cuff. I mean, the guy is
Speaker 3: you know, he's not what's the word I'm looking for?
Speaker 3: He is not methodical. He doesn't go from A to

Speaker 2: for me. Believe me.
Speaker 3: I was just shamed into it by Amy or was

Speaker 2: It was me, the one with a male voice sitting
Speaker 2: right in front of you. I've already forgotten. Now.
Speaker 3: If you want to know what jfk ate for breakfast, uh, the.
Speaker 1: The morning he was assassinating that I'll tell you, it's
Speaker 1: just it's Gerbil time.
Speaker 3: Who is at Alex Roza who used to be our
Speaker 3: producer before an kimeboard. Just describe it all as I
Speaker 3: have a Gerbil running around my head and that's where
Speaker 3: I go to.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've seen it, I know, I know.
Speaker 3: Okay, fair enough, let's do it, guys, handle on the
Speaker 3: news with Amy and Me and Neil and lead Sorry kid, Well,
Speaker 3: like I said, with President Trump sort of off the
Speaker 3: cuff and he said, we're gonna take over Gaza.
Speaker 2: That's what we're gonna do the United States. We're gonna
Speaker 2: go over there. We're gonna take all the Palestinians, move
Speaker 2: them out. We're gonna go and occupy. We're going to
Speaker 2: rebuild Gaza.
Speaker 3: It's gonna be the riviera of the Mediterranean area, the
Speaker 3: Middle East, and then it'll be an international enclave.
Speaker 2: It'll be Mara Gaza for everybody.
Speaker 3: And there's a little bit of pushback, just a little
Speaker 3: bit from everybody else around the world.
Speaker 2: He was spitballing, Yeah, that's exactly the point.
Speaker 3: So his press secretary came back, he said, wow, wow,
Speaker 3: he actually meant temporarily move out. When you think about it,
Speaker 3: Let's say you go home and a lot of Palestinians
Speaker 3: are in fact coming home to their quote neighborhood and
Speaker 3: all you see is rubble, and you're giving the opportunity
Speaker 3: to go to Jordan or Egypt, and the World Health
Speaker 3: Organization is setting you up with not housing, but they
Speaker 3: even say tenpting, but the facilities and schools, et cetera
Speaker 3: for the kids while they rebuild, and then you're invited back.
Speaker 2: I would take that offer.
Speaker 3: But Germany went nuts, Saudi Arabia went nuts, certainly Jordan
Speaker 3: and Egypt. He said, if you think you're bringing two
Speaker 3: million people to our side of the fence, that ain't
Speaker 3: going to happen. We're in for I know. I talked
Speaker 3: to John Decker, who is there in the room because
Speaker 3: he's one of the accredited. He's one of the accredited reporters.
Speaker 3: It's gonna be a lot of fun, Okay.
Speaker 4: New bird flu. Six dairy herds in Nevada tested positive
Speaker 4: for a new strain of the H five and one
Speaker 4: bird flu virus, not the same as the one that's
Speaker 4: been circulating around other dairy herds around the US. That
Speaker 4: virus is B three one three. The new strain is
Speaker 4: D one one and had previously been detected only in
Speaker 4: birds and in people who had contacted with infected birds.
Speaker 2: I mean you had to be close to birds.
Speaker 3: I mean just this side of having intimate relations with
Speaker 3: birds before you could catch it. Now it is spreading
Speaker 3: like wildflower, wild.
Speaker 2: Wild wild wild fire.
Speaker 3: Yes, you heard the phrase when pigs fly, that's changing
Speaker 3: to whin cows.
Speaker 2: Fly right over the moon.
Speaker 1: Elon Musk, those looking over under every little matt and
Speaker 1: every couch cushion. Elon Musk's department, of course and their
Speaker 1: representatives are at the Center Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Speaker 1: Services this week and they're examining payment and contracting systems
Speaker 1: of the Federal Health Agency And basically they're going to
Speaker 1: look through everything. Oh yeah, they're looking to see if
Speaker 1: and you know they're going to find it. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: there's plenty.
Speaker 3: When you have two and a half million employees at
Speaker 3: a budget of six trillion dollars, you think that you're
Speaker 3: going to find kind of some screw ups, which, by
Speaker 3: the way, I'm fine with the investigation, of course, I
Speaker 3: have no problem with the investigation. But they're firing people wholesale,
Speaker 3: shutting down entire departments.
Speaker 2: Prior to investigation. It's well, he think it's just a
Speaker 2: scare tactic. Nope, nope.
Speaker 3: I think his promise that he is going to take
Speaker 3: the government and shake it up and house I believe
Speaker 3: every word of it, and a lot of people think
Speaker 3: it's about time.
Speaker 2: It is about time. Oh it needs something. Yeah, that's it,
Speaker 2: and he's the one to do it.
Speaker 4: Amy, you can stay, but it's going to cost you
Speaker 4: a key. La City Council committee has rejected an effort
Speaker 4: to freeze the rents of tenants city wide in a
Speaker 4: you know, in connection with the fires. But they did
Speaker 4: move forward with a series of eviction protections for people
Speaker 4: who are affected by the fires. So it would ban
Speaker 4: landlords from evicting tenants for several reasons, including non payment
Speaker 4: of rent or if an owner wanted to move into
Speaker 4: a unit. Those evictions would be prohibited for a year.
Speaker 4: Again for people affected by the wildfires.
Speaker 3: I get questions all the time on handling the lot
Speaker 3: landlords who could not evict people for a year or
Speaker 3: a year and a half did not pay the rent,
Speaker 3: and now what do they do the rent? Well, they
Speaker 3: can't afford forty thousand dollars or forty five thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: What do I do? You go wait until they.
Speaker 3: Leave and go bankrupt on you and you've just sucked
Speaker 3: up a forty five thousand dollars loss.
Speaker 2: Is what they do.
Speaker 3: Landlords got screwed really well under this.
Speaker 2: And how does the government do that without putting in
Speaker 2: the money saying well, oh, it does it all the time.
Speaker 2: You can do that. You can say you don't owe
Speaker 2: the money you are.
Speaker 3: You know, there's a moratorium where I mean you owe
Speaker 3: the money at the end.
Speaker 2: They can't.
Speaker 3: They can't forgive the money you owe privately. They don't
Speaker 3: have the right to do that.
Speaker 1: But if they're helping the hardship of one right creating
Speaker 1: a hardship to the other right, they're just moving the hardship.
Speaker 2: That's correct.
Speaker 3: Landlords are the bad guys. Landlords are the bad guys.
Speaker 3: You own property, you are a bad, bad human being.
Speaker 3: And this is a city, Los Angeles, that is probably
Speaker 3: the most pro tenant right city.
Speaker 2: Santa Monica was crazy Santa Monica.
Speaker 3: If you were a landlord and you tried to evict
Speaker 3: someone and they fought it and went to court, you
Speaker 3: might as well get hand the tenant. The key to
Speaker 3: the place here, have an apartment building, It'll be cheaper
Speaker 3: for me to just give it to you.
Speaker 2: It's that bad, okay.
Speaker 1: California Governor Gav Newsome was in Washington, d C. Yesterday
Speaker 1: meeting with President Donald Trump.
Speaker 2: That's fun.
Speaker 1: Members of Congress as well helped secure additional funds to
Speaker 1: aid the recovery of Los Angeles following the deadly and
Speaker 1: destructive wildfires.
Speaker 2: So it's legitimate.
Speaker 1: He In late January, Newsom signed the two point five
Speaker 1: billion dollar relief package. So still looking it's expensive. I
Speaker 1: don't even know the numbers at this point. It's got
Speaker 1: to be the hundreds of billions.
Speaker 3: Right, well, it's certainly the tens of billions. I mean
Speaker 3: total damage maybe one hundred billion dollars. And Newsom went
Speaker 3: met with the president, you know, the enemy, and they
Speaker 3: have audio of that meeting.
Speaker 2: Please please give us some money I need.
Speaker 6: We did it.
Speaker 2: Let me put on a ring. See you can please it. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Parking lot to processing center. A Will Rogers State Beach
Speaker 4: parking lot has been designated by the EPA to be
Speaker 4: used as a temporary processing site for debris from the
Speaker 4: Palisades fire zone. The parking lot is going to be
Speaker 4: used as a staging area for potentially hazardous household items
Speaker 4: like paint, bleached asbestos, propane tanks, lithium ion batteries, all
Speaker 4: those things removed from the fire zone. And apparently Malibu's
Speaker 4: mayor and others are not too happy about that.
Speaker 3: No, does it matter where it goes. The neighbors are
Speaker 3: going to be unhappy. It's you can't win on this one.
Speaker 3: This is the ultimate nimbi. You how new, not in
Speaker 3: my backyard, not going to happen, and so lawsuits will
Speaker 3: be filed and just too bad. I mean, it's got
Speaker 3: to go someplace. And this is adjacent to the fire area.
Speaker 3: It's open, swide open. They have access to it. It's
Speaker 3: easy to get through, to separate out. It's a separation facility,
Speaker 3: basically an area where they take the toxics and they
Speaker 3: take the non toxics and what can be recycled.
Speaker 2: And it's got to be done. Without it, you can't
Speaker 2: clean up the area. So they bitch, oh no, no, no,
Speaker 2: not in Santam. You're moving to a new place. What's
Speaker 2: your backyard like, it's certainly not toxic stuff. I'll tell
Speaker 2: you that.
Speaker 3: I'd be filing I'd be the head of the line
Speaker 3: filing the lawsuits if it were me.
Speaker 2: US flu cases.
Speaker 1: Are peaking for the second time of the season, so
Speaker 1: you've got United States seeking this or seeing the second
Speaker 1: peak in the flu. Doctor's office visits for flu dipped
Speaker 1: earlier this year, and then they jumped past the previous
Speaker 1: season's peak at the end of last month with a
Speaker 1: thirty percent test positivity rate, And obviously we've got months
Speaker 1: to go still during for the can't wait flu season. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this year, I didn't get my flu shot for the
Speaker 1: first time in either, which is you know, and I've
Speaker 1: got the suppressed immune.
Speaker 3: System, and we're both gonna die. I'm over sixty five,
Speaker 3: so I'm at risk. We're both gonna die.
Speaker 4: Well, we're all gonna die.
Speaker 6: Bill, I'm talking about next week, Dark Amy, Yeah, Amy,
Speaker 6: come on, I like Dark Did you do a story
Speaker 6: this morning, Amy about how people are happier in the morning.
Speaker 2: You're some crapola like that?
Speaker 4: Yes, Oh God, and tell him how you guys both
Speaker 4: got mad at me today. You and Ann both got
Speaker 4: mad at me because I was all happy this morning.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's weird. It was a good mood. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, Amy got mad because she thought I was
Speaker 1: making fun of her when I smiled and said he
Speaker 1: when I took it from Will, thanks Will. Because nobody
Speaker 1: throws to the host. Everybody throws. The newspeople never get
Speaker 1: thrown at.
Speaker 4: I say that to Will every morning after our first
Speaker 4: little break, No, I was like, thanks Will, and.
Speaker 2: You know how you think you know how? You throw
Speaker 2: it to us? Amy? After this, thank you so much.
Speaker 1: After this, no one goes back to you in the studio,
Speaker 1: Bill Neil.
Speaker 3: By the way that the happy quotient you came up with,
Speaker 3: was that a survey that was done.
Speaker 4: A study published in the journal Journal B MJ Mental Health.
Speaker 3: They never interviewed anybody. They never in anybody here in
Speaker 3: the morning crew, I'll tell you that. All right, why
Speaker 3: don't we continue on what do you think?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 4: Funding for fireproofing so Cow schools. The LA School District
Speaker 4: is going to set aside two point two billion dollars
Speaker 4: to repair and rebuild three of the schools that were
Speaker 4: damaged in the Altadena area. And also they're going to
Speaker 4: spend some of that money, they say, to make all
Speaker 4: campuses more natural disaster resilient. Two schools. Superintendent Alberto Carvallo
Speaker 4: on Tuesday, or LA School Superintendent sorry Alberto Carvalla, also
Speaker 4: said that they're doing new health and safety evaluations at
Speaker 4: two of the campuses that were damaged by smoke and
Speaker 4: Pacific Palisy.
Speaker 2: Now can you imagine spending that much money?
Speaker 3: It would be much much more in expensive if they
Speaker 3: just increase the dropout rate, which is already astronomically high,
Speaker 3: and then there'd be fewer students to worry about. That
Speaker 3: is a knock on LAUSD by the way, where I
Speaker 3: went to school.
Speaker 2: Just wanted to share that with you. We're aware of
Speaker 2: their work, all right.
Speaker 1: Eligible federal workers must decide by eleven to fifty nine
Speaker 1: pm Eastern time today whether to take the Trump administration's
Speaker 1: deferred resignation offer. This will allow them to leave their
Speaker 1: jobs but be paid through the end of September. So
Speaker 1: at least forty thousand employees have already accepted the package.
Speaker 1: But there's a lot of pushback as well, and they're
Speaker 1: saying if this, if enough people don't take it, then
Speaker 1: they'll be furloughs or layoffs.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, though, there's no question, and that's the reason I.
Speaker 3: Think you're going to see more and more people taking it,
Speaker 3: because you get eight months, you don't have to work,
Speaker 3: and the number of people taking it is my job
Speaker 3: going to be eliminated anyway, so I might as well
Speaker 3: grab it.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 3: Is something out there that I'm looking at where I
Speaker 3: can segue right into a job in the private sector.
Speaker 1: But if they furloughed you, yeah, well, if they laid
Speaker 1: you off, wouldn't they have to give you severance?
Speaker 2: Anyways? I know, not eight months, No, not certainly not
Speaker 2: eight months.
Speaker 3: And I think you're free and clear, here's your eight months,
Speaker 3: go do whatever you want.
Speaker 2: You can go to work the next day for someone
Speaker 2: else and still because it's still yeah.
Speaker 3: So I see if I were in that position, I'm
Speaker 3: looking at the possibility being laid off, or I was
Speaker 3: planning on leaving and I was going to leave a
Speaker 3: year from now, and I had a job a possibility.
Speaker 2: I grabbed this in a heartbeat.
Speaker 4: Slip sliding away the Palace Verdes Peninsula. Of course, we've
Speaker 4: been talking about that because we've got neighborhoods that have
Speaker 4: been damaged from the slides. But NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory
Speaker 4: went and took a look and says that the slide's
Speaker 4: been moving about four inch per week.
Speaker 2: Per week, per week.
Speaker 3: Let's figure that one out per year, so that's four
Speaker 3: times fifty two.
Speaker 2: What is that figure? Two hundred? All right, so it's
Speaker 2: two hundred inchest? How many okay, how many feet? Is that?
Speaker 2: Divide by twelve?
Speaker 4: One hundred and forty four is twelve feet, So that's
Speaker 4: about what eighteen feet.
Speaker 2: Feet eighteen feet? So I feel like that that's eighteen
Speaker 2: feet a year.
Speaker 3: So you buy a house and if you're there at
Speaker 3: the bluff, we's going away. Next year, it's eighteen feet
Speaker 3: closer to the water slipping down. The year after that,
Speaker 3: it's another eighteen feet. Maybe this is not the time
Speaker 3: to buy a house near there. I wouldn't buy a
Speaker 3: house in Malibu along the water because you're going to
Speaker 3: be in one of those homes like Louisiana stilled homes
Speaker 3: to the buyou that's what it's going to look like.
Speaker 2: All right. This is an interesting story.
Speaker 1: The portion of Americans satisfied with the overall you know,
Speaker 1: nation's attitude towards gay and lesbian people, and the US
Speaker 1: has dipped the lowest levels in more than a decade.
Speaker 2: So it's.
Speaker 1: You go back and you know, according to the survey,
Speaker 1: fifty one percent of Americans say they're satisfied with national
Speaker 1: attitudes towards the LGBTQ plus community, but it's been dropping,
Speaker 1: I guess in the past couple of years. And the
Speaker 1: results reflect differences along partisan line. So of those who FI,
Speaker 1: of those who identify or lean, Republicans say they were
Speaker 1: satisfied with levels of acceptance, and then comparing with forty
Speaker 1: three percent of those that identify as Democrat.
Speaker 3: Less than satisfied. They wanted more levels of acceptance.
Speaker 2: Yes, so it's dipping. Yeah, a couple way. I'll tell
Speaker 2: you why.
Speaker 3: Okay, First of all, this has a lot to do
Speaker 3: with Biden and the Democrats and why Donald Trump got
Speaker 3: elected because Biden and the Democrats made a huge deal
Speaker 3: of LGBT rights, more than inflation. That was more important,
Speaker 3: more important than immigration. They just read it wrong. They
Speaker 3: just read it wrong. And this is why I think
Speaker 3: one of the major reasons Republicans did as well.
Speaker 2: They did.
Speaker 3: They pick up seats in the Senate, they did okay
Speaker 3: in the House, and of course they picked up the
Speaker 3: presidency and the and you now have a White House,
Speaker 3: you have a Congress that is for the most part
Speaker 3: anti LGP, anti LGPT right LGP, MF few or exactly.
Speaker 3: And so you know, when you have an administration moving
Speaker 3: and a society moving that fast in that direction, people
Speaker 3: are influenced by it.
Speaker 1: I think people put on the brakes when it comes
Speaker 1: to children and the trans stuff with children. I think, yeah,
Speaker 1: people at least slow down, even those of us who
Speaker 1: are supportive.
Speaker 2: You know, yeah, I'm totally supportive of trans rights.
Speaker 3: I mean I but the argument is, do we even
Speaker 3: look at whether women who used to be men and
Speaker 3: are now playing in women's league?
Speaker 2: Is there an advantage? Is that fair?
Speaker 3: Well, if there is an advantage, and then you have
Speaker 3: to look at that physiologically, is that fair? And according
Speaker 3: to the Democrats it doesn't matter. You know, it's racism.
Speaker 3: It's the discrimination if you even talk about it. So
Speaker 3: you know they pegged it wrong. I tell you, when
Speaker 3: you look back, it's all the logic in the world.
Speaker 3: What happened politically, And so yeah, I can see that.
Speaker 4: Okay, summer's coming and six Flags need you that. It's
Speaker 4: very farm too. They're hiring hundreds of workers for the
Speaker 4: season and are doing a hiring blitz from February fifteenth
Speaker 4: to the twenty second, and they're hiring for all kinds
Speaker 4: of positions, food and beverage, ride operators, lifeguards, security people,
Speaker 4: full sales people and the merchandise stores, guest services everything.
Speaker 4: It doesn't pay great, but it'd be fun to be
Speaker 4: work at a theme park for a while, right.
Speaker 1: We're gonna know, because you have to be nice to
Speaker 1: everybody you work on a theme park.
Speaker 2: I did I wear which one Universal Studios.
Speaker 3: I was a tour guide really yeah, and those were
Speaker 3: the days when it wasn't all contrived and it was
Speaker 3: and you're talking to screens and everything is timed up.
Speaker 3: They threw you on a van for three hours and
Speaker 3: said go for it.
Speaker 2: People paying you to talk for three hours blows my mind. Yeah, weird. Yeah,
Speaker 2: And yet and the minutia you had to learn.
Speaker 3: For example, you'd go through uh there was a giant
Speaker 3: warehouse where the train would go down in the middle
Speaker 3: and it was where they kept the cars and the buses.
Speaker 2: Oh I missed them doing those period.
Speaker 3: That was fabulous. You had to know every truck and
Speaker 3: every car. Didn't you want to do a promotion with that? Uh?
Speaker 2: Were Yeah? Actually we take winners and doing the tour
Speaker 2: and just basically do the tour and they wouldn't let us.
Speaker 2: I wanted to lead a tour like I did.
Speaker 1: They just did their sixtieth is what it was, sixtieth
Speaker 1: sixty fifth. What's the weirdest bit of information from that
Speaker 1: tour that you still remember?
Speaker 3: It was one of the old German staff cars that
Speaker 3: you had. You see those open German staff cars as
Speaker 3: when that was one of Rommels legitimate staff cars they
Speaker 3: used during World War.
Speaker 2: Two, and they used it in films and television. Didn't
Speaker 2: even mention it was just a German staff card.
Speaker 3: They picked it up and they found out later it
Speaker 3: was Rommels one of them that he used.
Speaker 2: Boh yeah, weird, yeah, all right. Lawsuit.
Speaker 1: Six women along with the California Coalition of Women Prisoners,
Speaker 1: have filed the lawsuit against the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
Speaker 1: They apparently, and this has been something we've been reading
Speaker 1: about more and more. This was a prison guynecologist. We've
Speaker 1: heard about the ones in the colleges, but various officials
Speaker 1: as well, with responsibility of overseeing the doctor allegedly ongoing
Speaker 1: sexual violence and the like. So and one of these
Speaker 1: one of these women's, John Jane Doe number three, said
Speaker 1: do that I can't even go to the gynecologists now,
Speaker 1: and I'm free.
Speaker 3: You know, I can understand these predatory cockroach gynecologists who
Speaker 3: get themselves into these positions because oh boy, you know,
Speaker 3: I'm a predator and it's a great place to be.
Speaker 3: What I have a real hard problem. Not that I
Speaker 3: don't have a problem with them, but they're easy. Put
Speaker 3: them in jail, goodbye, twenty years whatever.
Speaker 2: Naser. For example, it's the institution covering it up. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's already knowing that it's happening. That drives me nuts.
