00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:04.080
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to KPI AM six forty the Bill Handles

2
00:00:04.120 --> 00:00:13.400
<v Speaker 1>show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. How do you

3
00:00:13.439 --> 00:00:15.400
<v Speaker 1>get a shark to snort cocaine?

4
00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:19.239
<v Speaker 2>Actually, the cocaine gets into the sharks system from the

5
00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:22.320
<v Speaker 2>sewage discharges from humans who use the drug.

6
00:00:22.519 --> 00:00:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Well, let me tell you, any sharks that were around

7
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:28.879
<v Speaker 1>southern California back in the eighties were swimming around and

8
00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:31.920
<v Speaker 1>pretty excited every time I went to the bathroom.

9
00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:36.439
<v Speaker 3>And now handle on the news, ladies and gentlemen, here's

10
00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:39.719
<v Speaker 3>Bill Handle, And.

11
00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:44.880
<v Speaker 1>Good morning everybody. It is a Thursday morning, July twenty five,

12
00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:52.039
<v Speaker 1>and last night was the big one. A little froggy,

13
00:00:52.679 --> 00:01:00.280
<v Speaker 1>little flemy. Okay, should I do that again? Sure? Okay,

14
00:01:00.560 --> 00:01:04.799
<v Speaker 1>Hey everybody, It's Thursday morning, July twenty five, and welcome.

15
00:01:05.239 --> 00:01:10.079
<v Speaker 1>Last night was the big speech by Joe Biden. Going

16
00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:12.680
<v Speaker 1>to talk a lot more about that at seven am.

17
00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:20.760
<v Speaker 1>Some thoughts and commenting on the analysis, analyzing the analysis,

18
00:01:20.879 --> 00:01:24.920
<v Speaker 1>which I've got all kinds of comments on, all kinds

19
00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:27.959
<v Speaker 1>of opinions on, and the bottom line was Joe Biden

20
00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:32.560
<v Speaker 1>did pretty much what was expected. And for those Republicans,

21
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:35.040
<v Speaker 1>they say he didn't talk about his cognitive abilities. And

22
00:01:35.120 --> 00:01:36.760
<v Speaker 1>you know what, what's he going to say? I'm old,

23
00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:41.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm decrepit, I'm falling apart, thank you very much. And

24
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:43.680
<v Speaker 1>that was my question. Was he going to say I'm old, decrepit,

25
00:01:43.879 --> 00:01:46.640
<v Speaker 1>falling enough, falling apart. Was he going to say? Where

26
00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:51.920
<v Speaker 1>is the oval office? Huh? Look around and go where

27
00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:52.239
<v Speaker 1>am I?

28
00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:53.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

29
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:55.920
<v Speaker 1>Go figure? All right, Hello to one and all. Con O,

30
00:01:56.000 --> 00:01:58.799
<v Speaker 1>good morning, Hey Bill. You know what I like about Cono?

31
00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:01.840
<v Speaker 1>He actually laughs at this stuff. Amy for the most part,

32
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:06.120
<v Speaker 1>ignores me completely, and occasionally I'll get a chuckle out

33
00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:09.439
<v Speaker 1>of a and Neil just looks at me with utter

34
00:02:09.639 --> 00:02:14.360
<v Speaker 1>contempt and disdain. Cono, I like you a lot more

35
00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:16.800
<v Speaker 1>than anybody else on this show. I'll tell you that

36
00:02:17.199 --> 00:02:17.800
<v Speaker 1>right now.

37
00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:20.080
<v Speaker 3>That's huge. That's big for me.

38
00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:24.639
<v Speaker 1>That is well you deserve it. It's well well deserved.

39
00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:25.800
<v Speaker 1>What did I say on your T shirt?

40
00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:30.039
<v Speaker 3>Body Snatcher? It's a band. It's oh I thought.

41
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:33.240
<v Speaker 1>It was some kind of a description, a legal description.

42
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:37.599
<v Speaker 3>No, no, no, no, just I feel like heavy music

43
00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:40.000
<v Speaker 3>makes people angry.

44
00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:45.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah it is, yeah, heavy metal metal rock. Now. Very

45
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:47.039
<v Speaker 1>early on, I don't know how many years ago, I

46
00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:52.599
<v Speaker 1>was going to London and I somehow was upgraded. Occasionally.

47
00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:54.800
<v Speaker 1>I would get upgrade if I have enough miles. And

48
00:02:54.879 --> 00:02:57.080
<v Speaker 1>so I'm sitting in business class on a t W

49
00:02:57.280 --> 00:02:59.439
<v Speaker 1>A plane that's how long ago it was, and there's

50
00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:03.759
<v Speaker 1>this rungey looking guys. I figure, how did you get

51
00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:07.759
<v Speaker 1>up here? You know, you barely have bathed? And goes, oh,

52
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:11.520
<v Speaker 1>we're a rock group. I go, yeah, do I know

53
00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:14.639
<v Speaker 1>the name? And they said Metallica? And I said, what's

54
00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:19.439
<v Speaker 1>a Metallica? And what a dumb name for a group?

55
00:03:20.919 --> 00:03:24.120
<v Speaker 1>And so we had a conversation and they were trying

56
00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:26.360
<v Speaker 1>to explain to me what kind of music they do.

57
00:03:26.639 --> 00:03:28.319
<v Speaker 1>To this day, I don't understand.

58
00:03:28.599 --> 00:03:29.919
<v Speaker 3>They've done pretty well for themselves.

59
00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:37.039
<v Speaker 1>They've done okay, oh okay, all right, guys, we've got

60
00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:40.240
<v Speaker 1>news cycle. You know, that's one of the comments that

61
00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:45.159
<v Speaker 1>are being made Amy, I'm hearing among newspeople, and you

62
00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:48.800
<v Speaker 1>are in part of that. Ilk. Have you had a

63
00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:52.319
<v Speaker 1>three four week period that you can remember that had

64
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:55.639
<v Speaker 1>this much news into this magnitude.

65
00:03:55.840 --> 00:03:57.759
<v Speaker 4>No, it's like standing in front of a fire hose.

66
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:04.000
<v Speaker 1>It's just it's astounding and its NonStop. Yeah, it's crazy,

67
00:04:04.080 --> 00:04:07.439
<v Speaker 1>mate for us, Yeah, I mean it's you know, for us.

68
00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:10.039
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's you know, for news talk radio. It's

69
00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:11.960
<v Speaker 1>it's great stuff because it gives us a lot to

70
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:15.400
<v Speaker 1>talk about, all right, matter of fact, giving us a

71
00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:19.519
<v Speaker 1>lot to talk about. Grab the pile here, it is

72
00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:23.319
<v Speaker 1>time for handle on the news, Amy King, Neil back

73
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:32.920
<v Speaker 1>next Wednesday. Me late story. Probably it's all all right.

74
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:37.759
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden expected and we knew he was announcing him

75
00:04:37.839 --> 00:04:42.879
<v Speaker 1>leaving the campaign, dropping his candidacy for president, for as

76
00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:46.319
<v Speaker 1>the nominee of the Democratic Party, and we sort of

77
00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:50.439
<v Speaker 1>expected this. It was only eleven minutes, and it was

78
00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:55.399
<v Speaker 1>considered by many, particularly those papers of Joe Biden, and

79
00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:58.720
<v Speaker 1>I think even those that are non biased as somber.

80
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:04.639
<v Speaker 1>He talked about his accomplishments, which you'd figure he would,

81
00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:08.560
<v Speaker 1>because everybody else who has left the White House certainly

82
00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:12.680
<v Speaker 1>have no one of the three presidents that I can remember,

83
00:05:13.079 --> 00:05:16.279
<v Speaker 1>two of them actually in office leaving the White House, well,

84
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:20.120
<v Speaker 1>actually all three of them in office leaving the White

85
00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:22.680
<v Speaker 1>House in the last before the term was over. We're

86
00:05:22.759 --> 00:05:29.160
<v Speaker 1>not being the candidate again. It was not about why Nixon,

87
00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:31.800
<v Speaker 1>who was about to be indicted and thrown out of office,

88
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:36.600
<v Speaker 1>impeached and convicted by the Senate, he lost his political base.

89
00:05:38.120 --> 00:05:42.680
<v Speaker 1>That's it. Lyndon Johnson just said I'm leaving. And Joe

90
00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:46.759
<v Speaker 1>Biden last night didn't talk about his political base. All

91
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:50.160
<v Speaker 1>he said was it's time for me to go. That's it.

92
00:05:50.519 --> 00:05:53.439
<v Speaker 1>That was his reasoning for doing this time to pass

93
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:56.319
<v Speaker 1>the torch to a new generation. And a lot of

94
00:05:56.319 --> 00:06:02.639
<v Speaker 1>Republicans really pissed off that he didn't connected to I'm old,

95
00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:08.959
<v Speaker 1>I'm decrepit, I can't function, my cognitive abilities decreased. And

96
00:06:09.000 --> 00:06:12.759
<v Speaker 1>even Joe Biden fans, I mean, I like to watch CNN.

97
00:06:12.759 --> 00:06:14.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to talk more about this CNN. Could I

98
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:17.759
<v Speaker 1>really like the analysis of CNN. Forget about the politics

99
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:22.639
<v Speaker 1>of it, just the analysis. Van Jones, who is worked

100
00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:26.199
<v Speaker 1>in the Obama White House, who reveres Joe Biden, I

101
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:30.759
<v Speaker 1>mean revers the man. He's a genuine hero. To Van Jones,

102
00:06:31.439 --> 00:06:35.399
<v Speaker 1>he said, you could see how old Biden has become,

103
00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:38.399
<v Speaker 1>even the last two months. You could see the deterioration.

104
00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:43.319
<v Speaker 1>And he was really struck, I mean crying and really upset. Okay,

105
00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:46.040
<v Speaker 1>I'll do more about that at seven o'clock.

106
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:51.120
<v Speaker 2>And Tanya who had us lawmakers in the palm of

107
00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:54.959
<v Speaker 2>his hand, what kind of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin and

108
00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Nyahoo gave his speech to lawmakers at Capitol Hill yesterday,

109
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:03.240
<v Speaker 2>lashing out against the protests of Israel's war against Hamas.

110
00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:09.759
<v Speaker 2>He said that the protests that are happening outside and

111
00:07:09.879 --> 00:07:12.800
<v Speaker 2>around the country in the US are backed by Iran,

112
00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:16.319
<v Speaker 2>which effectively makes the protesters useful idiots.

113
00:07:17.639 --> 00:07:19.560
<v Speaker 1>It was a speech that took a lot of people

114
00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:22.240
<v Speaker 1>by surprise, because we were told that it was going

115
00:07:22.279 --> 00:07:26.920
<v Speaker 1>to be conciliatory. We were told that there would be

116
00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:32.079
<v Speaker 1>at least a reach out for peace in some way

117
00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:35.519
<v Speaker 1>to talk about ending the war, not even close, just

118
00:07:36.199 --> 00:07:40.519
<v Speaker 1>ripping into Hamas and anybody who was against the war,

119
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:45.560
<v Speaker 1>and then just outright line, we are sending unlimited aid

120
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:52.040
<v Speaker 1>to the Palestinians. Really we are not. We are not

121
00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:55.160
<v Speaker 1>targeting civilians, which is true, I believe for the most part.

122
00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:59.160
<v Speaker 1>But I mean the rest of it. We hand out

123
00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:02.480
<v Speaker 1>or we hand out millions of flyers and phone calls

124
00:08:02.480 --> 00:08:04.639
<v Speaker 1>and texts to tell people to get out of the way.

125
00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:05.639
<v Speaker 3>Do they do that?

126
00:08:06.120 --> 00:08:08.839
<v Speaker 1>They do do that. But what he left out was

127
00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:11.920
<v Speaker 1>get out of the way. There's the safe sone over

128
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:15.800
<v Speaker 1>there until we vomit, and then the flyers go out

129
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:18.360
<v Speaker 1>and say oh no, no, there's a safe son over safe

130
00:08:18.439 --> 00:08:22.800
<v Speaker 1>zone over there, and they vomit. And the argument is

131
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:26.480
<v Speaker 1>that those are Hamas strongholds or that's where Hamas starts

132
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:29.160
<v Speaker 1>its fight again, which I believe, by the way, just

133
00:08:29.279 --> 00:08:33.320
<v Speaker 1>don't say that we are there, just say we're fighting

134
00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:36.440
<v Speaker 1>him and if this is where they are, and effectively

135
00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:38.039
<v Speaker 1>he did say this, and this is where we go

136
00:08:38.639 --> 00:08:41.960
<v Speaker 1>as far as Hamas is concerned, and he talked about

137
00:08:42.519 --> 00:08:46.799
<v Speaker 1>in those are detractors of Israeli position. On the other side,

138
00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:53.759
<v Speaker 1>they the humanitarian workers, and there are thousands of them.

139
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:59.080
<v Speaker 1>Not one has said, yes, Hamas is fighting from the

140
00:08:59.159 --> 00:09:02.200
<v Speaker 1>hospitals or the schools. I have not heard one of those.

141
00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:08.320
<v Speaker 1>So clearly Kamas is not fighting from the schools and

142
00:09:08.919 --> 00:09:11.840
<v Speaker 1>the hospitals and the mosques. It's just not true. It's

143
00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:15.039
<v Speaker 1>not happening. Israel I guess isn't fighting at all. It's

144
00:09:15.039 --> 00:09:19.879
<v Speaker 1>just attacking civilians. Although there are Hamas fighters that Hamas

145
00:09:19.919 --> 00:09:25.320
<v Speaker 1>has said, but not in the civilian areas. The reality

146
00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:29.120
<v Speaker 1>on both sides, I don't get what's going on. I

147
00:09:29.159 --> 00:09:32.200
<v Speaker 1>think both sides are lying to some extent, to a

148
00:09:32.200 --> 00:09:34.799
<v Speaker 1>great extent, well.

149
00:09:34.639 --> 00:09:39.399
<v Speaker 2>There and they're they're challenged with the reality that people

150
00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:42.000
<v Speaker 2>can see now and people can get the information out.

151
00:09:42.039 --> 00:09:43.759
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you think about a war fifty years ago,

152
00:09:43.799 --> 00:09:46.480
<v Speaker 2>nobody knew what was going on. I mean you had

153
00:09:46.519 --> 00:09:49.840
<v Speaker 2>reporters there, but they had the delays. And now with

154
00:09:49.919 --> 00:09:54.960
<v Speaker 2>the instantanean or instantaneous information coming out, it's a different

155
00:09:55.320 --> 00:09:56.159
<v Speaker 2>It's a different war.

156
00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:58.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I would like to see if an attack is

157
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:00.960
<v Speaker 1>made on a civilian target because com is there, because

158
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:05.159
<v Speaker 1>the fighters are there, and let's say they're rocket launchers

159
00:10:05.440 --> 00:10:09.440
<v Speaker 1>coming from a school and Israel, Israel attacks it, I'd

160
00:10:09.480 --> 00:10:12.039
<v Speaker 1>like to see a few dead Hamas fighters in there.

161
00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:17.559
<v Speaker 1>I really would, you know, what where are they? And

162
00:10:17.639 --> 00:10:20.200
<v Speaker 1>then when you talk about the weapons they found, like

163
00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:23.679
<v Speaker 1>one cash of weapons is all I've seen on video.

164
00:10:23.799 --> 00:10:28.519
<v Speaker 1>They should be loaded with weapons as Israel attacks and

165
00:10:29.159 --> 00:10:33.559
<v Speaker 1>takes out a stronghold. So man, I just I don't

166
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:37.919
<v Speaker 1>get it. Well, I do get it, but unfortunately I'm

167
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:39.399
<v Speaker 1>not having a good time understanding it.

168
00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:45.240
<v Speaker 2>All right, Thousands protested outside the capitol as Israeli Prime

169
00:10:45.279 --> 00:10:50.039
<v Speaker 2>Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave his speech to Congress. They marched

170
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:55.120
<v Speaker 2>toward the capitol before police sprayed pepper spray on some

171
00:10:55.320 --> 00:10:59.879
<v Speaker 2>of them. They chanted free, Free Palestine. Some of the

172
00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:05.159
<v Speaker 2>removed American flags from Washington's Union Station, their train station,

173
00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:10.000
<v Speaker 2>and then hoisted Palestinian flags. And they also spray painted

174
00:11:10.120 --> 00:11:13.480
<v Speaker 2>monuments and wrote Hamas is coming in red spray paint.

175
00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:17.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well, I mean it's America. Well you can't deface property,

176
00:11:17.159 --> 00:11:20.240
<v Speaker 1>of course, under any circumstances. But you can put up

177
00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:23.159
<v Speaker 1>a Palestinian flag. I mean it's welcome to America. Can

178
00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:26.159
<v Speaker 1>burn the flag? They did? Did they did that Supreme Court.

179
00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:29.240
<v Speaker 1>There was a case decades and decades ago they said, hey,

180
00:11:29.320 --> 00:11:31.559
<v Speaker 1>that's that is a political speech.

181
00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:34.679
<v Speaker 2>Taking the American flag down off a flagpole on a

182
00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:37.320
<v Speaker 2>public building and then putting up the Palestinian flag is ill.

183
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:41.480
<v Speaker 1>That is illegal because you're you're you're trespassing for one thing.

184
00:11:42.240 --> 00:11:45.320
<v Speaker 1>But the act of doing that, being charged with taking

185
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:48.679
<v Speaker 1>down the American flag per se and putting up the

186
00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:52.159
<v Speaker 1>Palestinian flag in terms of any kind of treason, in terms,

187
00:11:52.240 --> 00:11:55.240
<v Speaker 1>you can absolutely do that. The crime here is doing

188
00:11:55.320 --> 00:11:59.360
<v Speaker 1>it on public land. For example, if I am a

189
00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:03.080
<v Speaker 1>protester and I can I burn an American flag on

190
00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:06.480
<v Speaker 1>my flagpole at home, you bet I can? You bet

191
00:12:06.559 --> 00:12:11.480
<v Speaker 1>I can? Now if I were. If I were there,

192
00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:14.039
<v Speaker 1>and thank god goodness, I'm not there, and if I

193
00:12:14.120 --> 00:12:18.039
<v Speaker 1>had a machine gun, these people would be just wiped out.

194
00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:20.440
<v Speaker 1>That is also a crime, by the way, taking a

195
00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:25.440
<v Speaker 1>machine gunning a whole group of people until they explode. Ok. Yeah, yeah,

196
00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:26.480
<v Speaker 1>I just wanted to point that out.

197
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:27.960
<v Speaker 4>Thank you for that clarification, yuy.

198
00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:30.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Also political speech, I might dad.

199
00:12:32.399 --> 00:12:36.919
<v Speaker 2>Our big fires pale in comparison, thankfully. You know, we've

200
00:12:36.919 --> 00:12:38.720
<v Speaker 2>got some fires. In fact, there's a there's a fire

201
00:12:38.759 --> 00:12:41.799
<v Speaker 2>that we're watching that's burning about fifteen miles outside of Paradise,

202
00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:45.639
<v Speaker 2>Remember the town that was destroyed by wildfire six years ago.

203
00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:48.039
<v Speaker 2>There's one that's grown to forty five thousand acres. But

204
00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:52.159
<v Speaker 2>up in Oregon, there's a lightning sparked wildfire. It's in

205
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:55.200
<v Speaker 2>eastern Oregon and it's torn through two hundred and seventy

206
00:12:55.240 --> 00:12:58.519
<v Speaker 2>thousand acres. So it's the largest wildfire in the US

207
00:12:58.679 --> 00:13:02.720
<v Speaker 2>right now. And in eastern Oregon there's nothing to stop

208
00:13:02.759 --> 00:13:05.440
<v Speaker 2>the fires. It's grassland, it's like high planes.

209
00:13:05.639 --> 00:13:07.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and so it just goes. This is a very

210
00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:12.480
<v Speaker 1>bad combination and that is a lot of dry vegetation,

211
00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:18.919
<v Speaker 1>strong winds, and truly hot weather. You put those three together,

212
00:13:19.879 --> 00:13:24.600
<v Speaker 1>it's like STDs and unprotected sex. That is a bad combination.

213
00:13:25.879 --> 00:13:29.759
<v Speaker 2>Break into the Mayor's office, no problem, Okay, there's a

214
00:13:29.799 --> 00:13:30.679
<v Speaker 2>little bit of a problem.

215
00:13:30.720 --> 00:13:31.480
<v Speaker 1>The mayor's home.

216
00:13:32.159 --> 00:13:34.000
<v Speaker 4>Oh did I say office, Yes, I'm at home.

217
00:13:34.080 --> 00:13:34.320
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

218
00:13:34.480 --> 00:13:38.440
<v Speaker 2>So back in April, somebody broke into La Mayor Bass's

219
00:13:38.519 --> 00:13:41.799
<v Speaker 2>home in Hancock Park, the Getty House. Twenty nine year

220
00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:45.759
<v Speaker 2>old accused of breaking in has pleaded no contest to

221
00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:50.440
<v Speaker 2>felony vandalism. Apparently they dropped the burglary charges as part

222
00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:54.600
<v Speaker 2>of his plea deal. He was given two years probation,

223
00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:57.679
<v Speaker 2>has to stay away from the Mayor's work and home addresses,

224
00:13:58.279 --> 00:14:03.080
<v Speaker 2>and has to have drugging out drug abuse and mental

225
00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:05.559
<v Speaker 2>health treatments, and has to pay some restitution.

226
00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the Getty House is kind of interesting. Six in Revine,

227
00:14:09.159 --> 00:14:12.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, one of the mansions in Hancock Park, the

228
00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:14.879
<v Speaker 1>Getty House has spent. The reason it's called the Getty House.

229
00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:16.840
<v Speaker 1>It was given to the city of Los Angeles by J.

230
00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:19.759
<v Speaker 1>Paul Getty, who was a resident of LA and the

231
00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Getty museums that he set up. Stiffed his kids completely

232
00:14:25.720 --> 00:14:29.440
<v Speaker 1>set up the art foundation. They have more money than

233
00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:32.000
<v Speaker 1>they know what to do with, because they have to

234
00:14:32.039 --> 00:14:36.960
<v Speaker 1>spend five percent of the assets of the foundation every

235
00:14:37.080 --> 00:14:41.559
<v Speaker 1>year or five percent of the income, and has wiped

236
00:14:41.559 --> 00:14:44.240
<v Speaker 1>out the world the world art market because they can

237
00:14:44.279 --> 00:14:48.519
<v Speaker 1>pay anything for anything. Do you know that if you're

238
00:14:48.519 --> 00:14:53.120
<v Speaker 1>a scholar and you're doing let's say some study, a

239
00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:55.679
<v Speaker 1>PhD study on a piece of art that Getty has,

240
00:14:56.279 --> 00:14:58.919
<v Speaker 1>you can apply for a scholarship or they will fly

241
00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:02.240
<v Speaker 1>you over or put you up for a year, pay

242
00:15:02.360 --> 00:15:06.279
<v Speaker 1>all of your expenses. And they have dozens and dozens

243
00:15:06.360 --> 00:15:10.600
<v Speaker 1>of those going every year. I should get into art,

244
00:15:10.759 --> 00:15:11.320
<v Speaker 1>no kidding.

245
00:15:12.720 --> 00:15:17.919
<v Speaker 2>Boeing has taken responsibility. There's an agreement between Boeing and

246
00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:22.240
<v Speaker 2>the Justice Department where the airplane maker will plead guilty

247
00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:26.120
<v Speaker 2>to a fraud charge for misleading US regulators who approved

248
00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:31.039
<v Speaker 2>the seven thirty seven Max jetliners. So apparently Boeing is

249
00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:33.639
<v Speaker 2>going to say that, through its employees, it made an

250
00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:39.039
<v Speaker 2>agreement by dishonest means to defraud the FAA the members

251
00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:42.399
<v Speaker 2>that evaluated the seven thirty seven, and because of that,

252
00:15:42.879 --> 00:15:46.919
<v Speaker 2>the FAA had incomplete and inaccurate information about the plane's

253
00:15:47.159 --> 00:15:50.080
<v Speaker 2>flight control software and how much training the pilots would need.

254
00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:50.840
<v Speaker 4>To be able to fly it.

255
00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:55.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that was the mcass debacle, that little software business

256
00:15:56.080 --> 00:15:59.200
<v Speaker 1>that would automatically put the plane into a dive if

257
00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:02.000
<v Speaker 1>it was going to go up. Install and pilots have

258
00:16:02.080 --> 00:16:04.159
<v Speaker 1>not been trained on that. Pilots didn't even know that

259
00:16:04.320 --> 00:16:05.399
<v Speaker 1>existed when they.

260
00:16:05.399 --> 00:16:05.799
<v Speaker 3>Put it in.

261
00:16:06.639 --> 00:16:10.720
<v Speaker 1>And the reason one of the ways that Boeing sells

262
00:16:11.360 --> 00:16:15.360
<v Speaker 1>so much Boeing is, here's a shortcut pilots. Whenever there's

263
00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:17.960
<v Speaker 1>a new system installed, pilots have to go into the

264
00:16:18.039 --> 00:16:20.639
<v Speaker 1>simulator and they have to study it. This was just

265
00:16:20.799 --> 00:16:24.679
<v Speaker 1>done on an iPad and that was it. That was

266
00:16:24.759 --> 00:16:26.120
<v Speaker 1>your training if you did it.

267
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:27.039
<v Speaker 2>Is that real?

268
00:16:27.279 --> 00:16:27.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

269
00:16:27.639 --> 00:16:32.559
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely, yep. Yeah, that's how That's what Boeing has done.

270
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:35.879
<v Speaker 1>Boeing is and the reason the fraud because let me

271
00:16:35.960 --> 00:16:39.159
<v Speaker 1>tell you how crazy the FAA is with its enormous

272
00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:43.320
<v Speaker 1>oversight because there are so few FAA auditors and inspectors.

273
00:16:43.919 --> 00:16:47.519
<v Speaker 1>When it is out there to certify a part, it

274
00:16:47.639 --> 00:16:51.759
<v Speaker 1>will ask Boeing to say does it meet our requirements?

275
00:16:52.159 --> 00:16:55.399
<v Speaker 1>And a Boeing inspector says yes it does, and the

276
00:16:55.600 --> 00:17:01.080
<v Speaker 1>FAA signs off on it. Well, those days have changed. Yeah,

277
00:17:01.559 --> 00:17:03.200
<v Speaker 1>that's bowing. And it used to be where you could

278
00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:05.799
<v Speaker 1>trust Boweing to do that. Well, it never used to

279
00:17:05.880 --> 00:17:08.079
<v Speaker 1>happen because you know, the budgets of the FA were

280
00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:13.200
<v Speaker 1>cut like crazy under Trump because that was just you know,

281
00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:16.119
<v Speaker 1>governmental regulations are not are not a big thing for

282
00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Republicans across the board, and so you used to be

283
00:17:20.559 --> 00:17:23.359
<v Speaker 1>able to trust Boeing. I mean that was in the

284
00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:25.160
<v Speaker 1>days when Boeing was Boeing. As a matter of fact,

285
00:17:25.240 --> 00:17:30.079
<v Speaker 1>that's the podcast. And when is that podcast already dropped?

286
00:17:30.359 --> 00:17:34.839
<v Speaker 1>The Boeing story. When's it coming on? We haven't said

287
00:17:34.839 --> 00:17:37.720
<v Speaker 1>a day yet. It will probably come next week on

288
00:17:37.880 --> 00:17:40.039
<v Speaker 1>the podcast that I drop every Tuesday and Thursday. And

289
00:17:40.079 --> 00:17:43.039
<v Speaker 1>one of the stories that have already recorded is what

290
00:17:43.240 --> 00:17:46.359
<v Speaker 1>happened to Boeing, the history of Boeing and how corporate,

291
00:17:46.759 --> 00:17:50.119
<v Speaker 1>how corporation that is most one of the most revered

292
00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:52.599
<v Speaker 1>companies in the world, How it went to the toilet?

293
00:17:53.119 --> 00:17:53.960
<v Speaker 1>And that's coming up.

294
00:17:54.119 --> 00:17:59.279
<v Speaker 2>Okay, well, we now know what caused it, and for

295
00:17:59.400 --> 00:18:02.839
<v Speaker 2>the important part, how much is the crowd strike failure

296
00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:03.559
<v Speaker 2>going to cost.

297
00:18:04.359 --> 00:18:06.880
<v Speaker 4>It's being described as the largest IT outage in.

298
00:18:07.119 --> 00:18:11.720
<v Speaker 2>History and will cost fortune five hundred companies alone more

299
00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:15.200
<v Speaker 2>than five billion dollars in direct losses. That's in a

300
00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:18.440
<v Speaker 2>preliminary report that also came out on the same day

301
00:18:18.680 --> 00:18:25.480
<v Speaker 2>as how CrowdStrike actually inadvertently calls the widespread it meltdown.

302
00:18:25.559 --> 00:18:29.759
<v Speaker 1>And that doesn't count the families that have loved ones

303
00:18:29.759 --> 00:18:33.079
<v Speaker 1>who have died because they couldn't get into surgery. And

304
00:18:33.359 --> 00:18:35.079
<v Speaker 1>they now that's not to say they're going to win

305
00:18:35.279 --> 00:18:39.720
<v Speaker 1>because it's elective surgery. But still, it's either a good

306
00:18:39.799 --> 00:18:42.519
<v Speaker 1>time to buy CrowdStrike or it's a very bad time

307
00:18:42.720 --> 00:18:47.119
<v Speaker 1>to buy CrowdStrike because at this point, if it comes back,

308
00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:49.079
<v Speaker 1>you're going to make some money, and if it doesn't

309
00:18:49.119 --> 00:18:50.880
<v Speaker 1>come back, you're going to lose your shirt.

310
00:18:53.480 --> 00:18:54.599
<v Speaker 4>Gotta bet either way.

311
00:18:55.000 --> 00:18:57.759
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's people who bet when things are down. People

312
00:18:57.920 --> 00:19:00.759
<v Speaker 1>buy Apple. When Apple was in the toilet, when Steve

313
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:04.039
<v Speaker 1>Jobs came back, I mean the company was moribund, it

314
00:19:04.119 --> 00:19:06.119
<v Speaker 1>was almost it was close to death. And if you

315
00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:08.440
<v Speaker 1>believe in Steve Jobs, you made a fortune.

316
00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:12.240
<v Speaker 4>Another attempted murder on Metro.

317
00:19:12.559 --> 00:19:15.039
<v Speaker 1>Why do they even report these anymore.

318
00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:17.839
<v Speaker 2>Because they're happening every week and they said that the

319
00:19:18.039 --> 00:19:20.640
<v Speaker 2>ridership is up for the nineteenth month in a row.

320
00:19:21.079 --> 00:19:24.640
<v Speaker 1>No, thank you. Well, there are people that i'd like

321
00:19:24.720 --> 00:19:27.240
<v Speaker 1>to pay Russian roulette. Talked about that a couple of

322
00:19:27.319 --> 00:19:30.160
<v Speaker 1>days ago. What Russian roulette is? Or are willing to

323
00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:31.000
<v Speaker 1>take their chances?

324
00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:33.559
<v Speaker 4>Well, and here's the thing. It's not only happening. I mean,

325
00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:34.920
<v Speaker 4>you hear about the fights and stuff.

326
00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:37.480
<v Speaker 2>So this is what happened to the guy getting off

327
00:19:38.039 --> 00:19:41.599
<v Speaker 2>at the Metro Redline station in North Hollywood. Apparently he

328
00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:44.160
<v Speaker 2>was on the steps that lead over to the Metro

329
00:19:44.319 --> 00:19:47.119
<v Speaker 2>buses when somebody comes up to him and stabs him

330
00:19:47.119 --> 00:19:47.640
<v Speaker 2>in the ribs.

331
00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:50.960
<v Speaker 1>That's lovely. You know, this going on the Metro is

332
00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:54.519
<v Speaker 1>a lot like torriadors, you know, is it worth the risk?

333
00:19:55.079 --> 00:19:59.599
<v Speaker 1>Or people who skydive, Why would you do that? You

334
00:19:59.759 --> 00:20:04.519
<v Speaker 1>jump out of a perfectly good airplane and why so

335
00:20:04.599 --> 00:20:05.720
<v Speaker 1>why would you ride the Metro?

336
00:20:06.200 --> 00:20:07.920
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, but I bet skydiving is a lot

337
00:20:07.960 --> 00:20:09.400
<v Speaker 4>more fun than riding the Metro.

338
00:20:09.920 --> 00:20:12.440
<v Speaker 1>Yes, well, at least until you hit the ground. That's true.

339
00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:15.759
<v Speaker 4>That's true, all right? Uh, too close for comfort.

340
00:20:16.720 --> 00:20:21.559
<v Speaker 2>Norad has intercepted to Russian and two Russian jets and

341
00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:27.079
<v Speaker 2>two Chinese bombers that were flying near Alaska yesterday kind

342
00:20:27.119 --> 00:20:29.720
<v Speaker 2>of right around the time that President Biden was about

343
00:20:29.720 --> 00:20:32.720
<v Speaker 2>to give his oval office address. A Defense officials said

344
00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:35.799
<v Speaker 2>it was the first time Russia and Chinese have been

345
00:20:35.880 --> 00:20:38.079
<v Speaker 2>intercepted while operating together.

346
00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:42.799
<v Speaker 1>That is the big issue because these interdictions, or at

347
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:47.079
<v Speaker 1>least you're noting that these uh these internet flying near

348
00:20:47.319 --> 00:20:49.000
<v Speaker 1>coasts and we do that over there, and they do

349
00:20:49.119 --> 00:20:52.359
<v Speaker 1>that over here, but China, as you pointed out, China

350
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:57.480
<v Speaker 1>and Russia doing it together as some kind of military exercise.

351
00:20:57.759 --> 00:21:00.880
<v Speaker 1>By the way, Nora had cost so much money. You know,

352
00:21:01.000 --> 00:21:03.759
<v Speaker 1>it's all Cold war stuff. You know that The only

353
00:21:03.799 --> 00:21:05.680
<v Speaker 1>time they're really worth the money is when they track

354
00:21:05.759 --> 00:21:09.559
<v Speaker 1>Santa Claus going across the world. You ever see you know,

355
00:21:09.640 --> 00:21:10.720
<v Speaker 1>you see that every Christmas.

356
00:21:10.839 --> 00:21:11.880
<v Speaker 4>Yes, it's very important.

357
00:21:12.039 --> 00:21:16.519
<v Speaker 1>That's Norad that's doing that tracking Santa Claus. Until we

358
00:21:16.640 --> 00:21:19.359
<v Speaker 1>find out that it really is a Russian missile that's

359
00:21:19.440 --> 00:21:22.599
<v Speaker 1>disguised as Santa Claus, then we're going to be in

360
00:21:22.680 --> 00:21:23.359
<v Speaker 1>a lot of trouble.

361
00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:26.119
<v Speaker 2>That makes sense because to get to all of the

362
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:29.200
<v Speaker 2>houses of all of the children all around the world,

363
00:21:29.480 --> 00:21:31.480
<v Speaker 2>Santa is probably have to go that fast.

364
00:21:31.680 --> 00:21:33.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I go pretty quickly. Yeah, and he's trying. I

365
00:21:33.759 --> 00:21:35.960
<v Speaker 1>don't know, because you can see Santa you know where

366
00:21:36.160 --> 00:21:38.880
<v Speaker 1>Santa is he's now over Bolivia and he's now over

367
00:21:39.200 --> 00:21:41.519
<v Speaker 1>Now here's my question. If he's over Bolivia, what are

368
00:21:41.559 --> 00:21:45.799
<v Speaker 1>people do in Brazil because he just transports right over

369
00:21:45.960 --> 00:21:47.839
<v Speaker 1>or he goes right over one country not the other.

370
00:21:47.960 --> 00:21:51.400
<v Speaker 1>So I've always wondered about that. This is deep deep

371
00:21:51.480 --> 00:21:51.880
<v Speaker 1>fis this.

372
00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:54.599
<v Speaker 4>Is deep thinking? All right, Well, it's a little supposed

373
00:21:54.599 --> 00:21:55.240
<v Speaker 4>to be all.

374
00:21:55.240 --> 00:21:59.519
<v Speaker 2>Fun and games, but then politics comes into play. At

375
00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:03.839
<v Speaker 2>uh tens of thousands of fans were at the park,

376
00:22:04.359 --> 00:22:09.000
<v Speaker 2>the Prince Stadium in Paris, booed and hissed and whistled

377
00:22:09.039 --> 00:22:11.559
<v Speaker 2>their way through the Israeli national anthem leading up to

378
00:22:11.640 --> 00:22:12.279
<v Speaker 2>the Olympics.

379
00:22:12.400 --> 00:22:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Come on now, and even though it's illegal for oh well,

380
00:22:18.279 --> 00:22:22.599
<v Speaker 1>athletes to show their political views, that's not allowed. But

381
00:22:22.680 --> 00:22:25.359
<v Speaker 1>how do you stop an audience from doing that? That's

382
00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:30.720
<v Speaker 1>you can't. And there's anti semitim. Anti Semitism is rife

383
00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:34.640
<v Speaker 1>now through the world. You're gonna see that. Isn't that special?

384
00:22:35.680 --> 00:22:40.400
<v Speaker 1>God help an Israeli athlete that wins the medal? Can

385
00:22:40.440 --> 00:22:44.160
<v Speaker 1>you imagine what's going to happen in the stadium. And

386
00:22:44.240 --> 00:22:46.920
<v Speaker 1>by the way, if that's the case, if I were

387
00:22:47.119 --> 00:22:49.599
<v Speaker 1>the coach, I would go here's what you do. If

388
00:22:49.759 --> 00:22:53.200
<v Speaker 1>they hiss at you, you moon them. And that would

389
00:22:53.240 --> 00:22:56.559
<v Speaker 1>be a view from the state from you know, the

390
00:22:58.079 --> 00:23:00.359
<v Speaker 1>stand where you stand up and take metal.

391
00:23:01.759 --> 00:23:05.319
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, special delivery and not in a good way.

392
00:23:06.559 --> 00:23:11.279
<v Speaker 2>Representative Norman Torres and the Inland Empire says her office

393
00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:17.880
<v Speaker 2>received two letters containing a white powdery substance. So Torres,

394
00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:22.720
<v Speaker 2>who is the representative of thirty fifth Congressional District in

395
00:23:22.759 --> 00:23:26.160
<v Speaker 2>California for Ontario, says no one was hurt, but her

396
00:23:26.200 --> 00:23:29.000
<v Speaker 2>staffers had to shelter in place while has Maat teams

397
00:23:29.079 --> 00:23:29.559
<v Speaker 2>checked it out.

398
00:23:29.680 --> 00:23:31.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you really went to screw with a political office

399
00:23:31.920 --> 00:23:36.240
<v Speaker 1>and an envelope with sweet and low in it. That'll

400
00:23:36.279 --> 00:23:40.319
<v Speaker 1>disrupt things. And by the way, is that illegal. I

401
00:23:40.359 --> 00:23:47.720
<v Speaker 1>don't think that is. It's just a political statement there.

402
00:23:48.200 --> 00:23:51.400
<v Speaker 2>How speedy is your broadband? There's a new app for that.

403
00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:55.079
<v Speaker 2>The FCC has revealed the launch of a new app

404
00:23:55.119 --> 00:23:59.119
<v Speaker 2>that will allow consumers to test their mobile broadband speed

405
00:23:59.480 --> 00:24:03.119
<v Speaker 2>in order to gauge the accuracy of a provider's mobile

406
00:24:03.160 --> 00:24:05.640
<v Speaker 2>coverage range. So I guess if they say we have

407
00:24:05.720 --> 00:24:08.319
<v Speaker 2>the best broadband coverage, you can check your app and

408
00:24:08.359 --> 00:24:08.960
<v Speaker 2>say no, you don't.

409
00:24:09.920 --> 00:24:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, right, now was it the other day? I wanted

410
00:24:13.039 --> 00:24:16.400
<v Speaker 1>to know, am I getting my three hundred MPs that

411
00:24:16.480 --> 00:24:20.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm paying for at home? And you're going into a program.

412
00:24:20.359 --> 00:24:22.680
<v Speaker 1>But it's not that easy, you know, I'll tell you

413
00:24:23.200 --> 00:24:26.480
<v Speaker 1>exactly what's happening in real time and what the FCC

414
00:24:26.720 --> 00:24:29.279
<v Speaker 1>is doing. Just you do this on your cell phone,

415
00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:33.559
<v Speaker 1>go right to the app. This is great, by the way,

416
00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:37.160
<v Speaker 1>to find out exactly what you're paying for.

417
00:24:37.640 --> 00:24:41.039
<v Speaker 2>Well, but then do you have any recourse if they're saying, hey,

418
00:24:41.440 --> 00:24:43.799
<v Speaker 2>you're supposed to get whatever that number you said and

419
00:24:43.920 --> 00:24:46.559
<v Speaker 2>then it's like half that, then you go back and say, hey,

420
00:24:46.599 --> 00:24:48.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm not getting that, give me a refund.

421
00:24:48.200 --> 00:24:51.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I don't know if they've gone that far yet,

422
00:24:51.200 --> 00:24:55.119
<v Speaker 1>because at this point it's simply the launch itself of

423
00:24:55.319 --> 00:24:59.839
<v Speaker 1>the app, and it allows consumers to test the broadband speed.

424
00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:03.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if there is a consequence if it

425
00:25:03.359 --> 00:25:08.759
<v Speaker 1>doesn't happen, because right now it's only enabling users to

426
00:25:08.839 --> 00:25:12.079
<v Speaker 1>get free, open and transparent information about the performance of

427
00:25:12.079 --> 00:25:15.680
<v Speaker 1>the network. So I think that's the next step. You

428
00:25:15.720 --> 00:25:17.480
<v Speaker 1>think there's going to be a political fight on that one.

429
00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:21.519
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Yeah, Disney's made a deal.

430
00:25:21.599 --> 00:25:24.680
<v Speaker 2>Speaking of fights, they're playing nice now with the union

431
00:25:24.880 --> 00:25:27.480
<v Speaker 2>and Disney and fourteen thousand workers are not going to

432
00:25:27.519 --> 00:25:29.839
<v Speaker 2>go on strike if they approve this deal. But they've

433
00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:33.720
<v Speaker 2>reached a tentative contract for three years that will have

434
00:25:33.880 --> 00:25:38.279
<v Speaker 2>wage increases apparently, some benefits to people who have seniority,

435
00:25:38.480 --> 00:25:43.400
<v Speaker 2>security increases, and additional premiums whatever that means. So, and

436
00:25:44.200 --> 00:25:48.559
<v Speaker 2>the deal came like four days after the union with

437
00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:51.759
<v Speaker 2>ninety nine percent in support, said yep, we're going to

438
00:25:51.759 --> 00:25:52.559
<v Speaker 2>authorize a strike.

439
00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and Disney tell me this isn't PR corporate speak.

440
00:25:58.519 --> 00:26:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Here's their statement. We care deeply about the well being

441
00:26:01.720 --> 00:26:03.920
<v Speaker 1>of our cast members and are pleased to have reached

442
00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:08.000
<v Speaker 1>a tentative agreement with Master Service Counsel the union that

443
00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:12.519
<v Speaker 1>addresses what matters most to our cast while positioning Disneyland

444
00:26:12.559 --> 00:26:16.640
<v Speaker 1>Resort for future growth and job creation. That's PR speak.

445
00:26:16.839 --> 00:26:21.000
<v Speaker 1>We fought so hard to screw them over that we

446
00:26:21.440 --> 00:26:24.799
<v Speaker 1>basically averted a strike by thirty seconds. Now the other

447
00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:29.119
<v Speaker 1>side will argue the other way. So it's just why

448
00:26:29.119 --> 00:26:31.319
<v Speaker 1>don't they just admit, Yeah, we had a battle, and

449
00:26:31.720 --> 00:26:33.480
<v Speaker 1>you know this is where we came to, and we

450
00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:36.519
<v Speaker 1>agreed to thirty cents an hour, and they dropped their

451
00:26:36.559 --> 00:26:39.640
<v Speaker 1>fifty cents an hour as opposed to the PR babble

452
00:26:39.720 --> 00:26:43.480
<v Speaker 1>that goes on and you have and that's what they

453
00:26:43.559 --> 00:26:46.039
<v Speaker 1>hand you, don't they amy? In terms of the releases,

454
00:26:46.119 --> 00:26:46.839
<v Speaker 1>the news.

455
00:26:46.720 --> 00:26:51.200
<v Speaker 4>Releases, Yeah, nope, we don't get the real stuff.

456
00:26:51.279 --> 00:26:51.920
<v Speaker 1>No, of course not.

457
00:26:53.599 --> 00:26:57.240
<v Speaker 2>But emotions are real and apparently they're good. Inside Out

458
00:26:57.319 --> 00:27:00.599
<v Speaker 2>two as surpassed one point four to six billion in

459
00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:03.960
<v Speaker 2>global ticket sales, making it the highest grossing animated feature

460
00:27:04.039 --> 00:27:08.279
<v Speaker 2>of all time. It just passed Disney's Frozen two and

461
00:27:08.559 --> 00:27:10.480
<v Speaker 2>it's going to get another shot at the box office

462
00:27:10.519 --> 00:27:12.400
<v Speaker 2>because it hasn't even opened yet in Japan.

463
00:27:13.079 --> 00:27:15.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't we talk to Mo about this? Moe is

464
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:18.240
<v Speaker 1>coming to board at eight fifty when we do earlier

465
00:27:18.319 --> 00:27:21.759
<v Speaker 1>with Mo Kelly, and he's our entertainment guy, and I

466
00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:25.680
<v Speaker 1>thought that no one's going to the movies anymore. And

467
00:27:25.960 --> 00:27:29.720
<v Speaker 1>look at these numbers, I mean they are astronomical. So

468
00:27:29.839 --> 00:27:31.839
<v Speaker 1>I mean that I'm going to have a conversation with

469
00:27:31.960 --> 00:27:34.480
<v Speaker 1>Mo about right. Thet's two one more before we end

470
00:27:34.519 --> 00:27:35.079
<v Speaker 1>the segment.

471
00:27:35.240 --> 00:27:39.079
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so it's the end of an era for Southwest Airlines,

472
00:27:39.119 --> 00:27:41.319
<v Speaker 2>which might make you very happy or maybe not, depending

473
00:27:41.359 --> 00:27:43.079
<v Speaker 2>on the consequences.

474
00:27:42.759 --> 00:27:44.559
<v Speaker 4>But no more first come, first served.

475
00:27:44.680 --> 00:27:48.240
<v Speaker 2>Southwest is shifting to assigned seating for the first time

476
00:27:48.319 --> 00:27:52.400
<v Speaker 2>in its fifty year history. But here's the downside of that.

477
00:27:52.599 --> 00:27:55.519
<v Speaker 2>It's going to allow Southwest to charge premiums for some

478
00:27:55.599 --> 00:27:57.279
<v Speaker 2>of the seats on the plane, like all the other

479
00:27:57.359 --> 00:27:58.480
<v Speaker 2>carriers who are already doing.

480
00:27:58.759 --> 00:28:05.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and that is charging for seating is insane how

481
00:28:05.160 --> 00:28:09.599
<v Speaker 1>much money they make. For example, I'm traveling to Europe,

482
00:28:09.640 --> 00:28:11.440
<v Speaker 1>as I do every year, I take a trip. So

483
00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:14.279
<v Speaker 1>I bought my ticket and there are two of us going.

484
00:28:14.640 --> 00:28:17.240
<v Speaker 1>So I just bought two tickets and they said, do

485
00:28:17.279 --> 00:28:19.559
<v Speaker 1>you want to sit together? What do you mean, do way?

486
00:28:19.599 --> 00:28:21.799
<v Speaker 1>I want to sit together? Of course, Oh, that'll be

487
00:28:21.799 --> 00:28:23.480
<v Speaker 1>an extra charge to confirm the two of you going

488
00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:25.519
<v Speaker 1>to sit together and go what are you talking about?

489
00:28:27.440 --> 00:28:31.200
<v Speaker 1>H that was one hundred and sixty two dollars.

490
00:28:33.640 --> 00:28:34.359
<v Speaker 4>That's crazy.

491
00:28:34.599 --> 00:28:38.880
<v Speaker 1>That's what's going on. That is literally what's going on.

492
00:28:39.319 --> 00:28:41.240
<v Speaker 4>And what ends up happening is one of you is

493
00:28:41.319 --> 00:28:43.400
<v Speaker 4>paying for a middle seat.

494
00:28:44.400 --> 00:28:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Oh that's another charge. If you don't want a middle seat,

495
00:28:48.079 --> 00:28:51.240
<v Speaker 1>oh yeah, I forget about that, and then you have

496
00:28:51.519 --> 00:28:54.359
<v Speaker 1>well it makes sense for the ultra ultra low cost

497
00:28:54.400 --> 00:28:57.640
<v Speaker 1>carriers like Spirit in Frontier. They make all of their

498
00:28:57.720 --> 00:29:01.799
<v Speaker 1>money on the junk fees. You pay extra for everything,

499
00:29:01.960 --> 00:29:05.880
<v Speaker 1>including carry on bags. If you're wearing pants, they charge

500
00:29:05.920 --> 00:29:11.319
<v Speaker 1>you more money. It's have you ever flown? I won't.

501
00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:14.079
<v Speaker 1>I won't fly those incredibly low cost fares because it

502
00:29:14.160 --> 00:29:17.279
<v Speaker 1>turns out to be pretty close to that unless you

503
00:29:17.400 --> 00:29:19.240
<v Speaker 1>literally are taking your clothes in your pocket.

504
00:29:19.920 --> 00:29:20.119
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

505
00:29:20.160 --> 00:29:23.359
<v Speaker 2>I just flew a Vellow which goes to some of

506
00:29:23.400 --> 00:29:26.680
<v Speaker 2>the smaller airports, and they charged for seats, but I

507
00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:28.720
<v Speaker 2>didn't buy it, so I just waited until I got

508
00:29:28.799 --> 00:29:31.480
<v Speaker 2>to the airport and I ended up getting great seats

509
00:29:31.519 --> 00:29:32.000
<v Speaker 2>both times.

510
00:29:32.119 --> 00:29:35.799
<v Speaker 4>Oh all right, but I lucked out. Yeah, yeah, you

511
00:29:35.839 --> 00:29:37.599
<v Speaker 4>can't catch I think that happens every time.

512
00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:40.240
<v Speaker 1>Not at all. All right, We're done, guys. KFI AM
