Speaker 1: You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
Speaker 1: six forty.
Speaker 2: Just contact. Neil does a great job the T shirts.
Speaker 2: They are very inexpensive. They're made in Pakistan by four
Speaker 2: year old kids. And you can't get wet because the
Speaker 2: dye tends to run, so don't sweat in them.
Speaker 3: Much less wash them.
Speaker 1: The handle Twiggs or in my basement making clothing for me.
Speaker 2: And now Handle on the news, ladies and gentlemen. Here's
Speaker 2: Bill Handle. All right, good morning everybody, Bill Handle here
Speaker 2: on a Monday morning, September thirty September. Is it thirty
Speaker 2: one or thirty? This is the last day or tomorrow?
Speaker 4: It is the last day of September?
Speaker 2: It is? I always get confused to this day, to
Speaker 2: this day, I do not know thirty thirty one. You know,
Speaker 2: I don't work with the knuckles. I've never had tattoos
Speaker 2: on my knuckles that tell me the days, and just
Speaker 2: I just don't do it anyway. Good morning, last day
Speaker 2: of September. Uh and we uh oh god, what a
Speaker 2: weekend news man. It doesn't stop. First of all, a
Speaker 2: hello to one and all amy, good morning, good morning. Though.
Speaker 2: Oh is that a T shirt to say over the edge.
Speaker 2: It does, Neil, did you make those?
Speaker 3: Have one? But they didn't make them?
Speaker 2: Oh, I thought, you know, you usually produce a lot
Speaker 2: of the KFI stuff, but this was out of ki.
Speaker 2: That's from Over the Edge. Okay, so Amy, you can
Speaker 2: sweat in that one, and that die is not going
Speaker 2: to run. There's anything that Neil makes. It's uh, your
Speaker 2: WoT with the most colorful armpits you've ever had in
Speaker 2: your life. As the as the dye runs, how did
Speaker 2: it go? Instantly? And good morning Neil? Let me say
Speaker 2: good morning everybody. Then I'll ask how it goes. There's
Speaker 2: Amy and kN O'Neil. Okay, good morning everybody. Now tell
Speaker 2: me about the over the Edge and you repelling down
Speaker 2: that office building so amazing.
Speaker 5: We went twenty five stories down, something I've never done
Speaker 5: before in my life.
Speaker 4: I know that Neil's afraid of heights. I'm afraid of heights.
Speaker 5: I have to tell you. It's almost heart stopping. I
Speaker 5: hoped I didn't cry. But they take such good care
Speaker 5: of you, and I think the most nerve wracking thing
Speaker 5: is when you literally you're standing on the edge of
Speaker 5: the building. You're all strapped up and you're like, Okay,
Speaker 5: what do I do now? And the guys go, We'll
Speaker 5: sit down, and you're like, but there's nothing to sit on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like and they say it very matter of factly.
Speaker 2: So you don't push off, No, you just sit.
Speaker 5: You sit down, and then as you repel down, you
Speaker 5: release the rope and you basically walk down the building.
Speaker 3: And did you go fast or slow?
Speaker 4: The first time? I went pretty slow?
Speaker 2: Oh? You went several times.
Speaker 1: They wan to slow me down multiple times because I
Speaker 1: was booking.
Speaker 3: Oh, that was fun for me.
Speaker 4: Did you lock up?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I locked up on Oh so if you go too fast,
Speaker 4: they've got these safety things in place, they'll lock up
Speaker 4: and then they have to stop you and then they
Speaker 4: have to release it and then you can start going again.
Speaker 4: But the first time I went pretty slow. The second
Speaker 4: time because I had so much fun. The first time,
Speaker 4: I went back on Saturday and did it again.
Speaker 2: You have our listeners go down the mountain side there
Speaker 2: the building.
Speaker 4: We know that some did. We just don't know who they.
Speaker 2: Are because they were wearing hoods.
Speaker 4: Right when they did it, because.
Speaker 2: They were goods, because they thought they were going to die.
Speaker 5: No, come on, they had like they had almost two
Speaker 5: hundred people go over the edge over the weekend.
Speaker 2: That's true.
Speaker 1: If it was as far as scary it is, they
Speaker 1: do such great work making sure that you're safe.
Speaker 3: It didn't. It was not unnerving at all.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: The weird thing was I thought stepping over the edge
Speaker 1: was going to be the weirdest thing. It didn't bother
Speaker 1: me much. What bothered me was the weight of the rope.
Speaker 1: So the rope that dangles off the side at six
Speaker 1: hundred feet, it feels like one hundred pounds and it
Speaker 1: very counterintuitive to your brain because you feel like you
Speaker 1: have weights on you.
Speaker 2: Anyway, Thank God, and I am Amy.
Speaker 1: You said that I was a one and done. No,
Speaker 1: I I just couldn't do it again Friday or Saturday.
Speaker 1: But I am in for next year. So you are okay,
Speaker 1: absolutely and uh And they just kept telling me slow
Speaker 1: down because I was looking it.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Anyway, you know, thank that both of you because raising money,
Speaker 2: and I know you raised a pile of money.
Speaker 1: Amy kicked, but God bless her. That is such a
Speaker 1: great cause. Everybody who thank you to those that.
Speaker 2: Everybody who gave so thanks a lot. Okay, Okay, so
Speaker 2: that's the good news. Now let's talk about the news
Speaker 2: that I particularly immediately default too. And that is horrible news.
Speaker 2: And let's do it handle on the news with Amy
Speaker 2: Neil and me leave story. There comes a study mount
Speaker 2: Hurricane Helen was as bad as was anticipated, if not worse.
Speaker 3: It was brutal.
Speaker 2: One hundred and sixteen people dead, six hundred missing in
Speaker 2: North Carolina. It's just crazy. It's they don't even know.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's gonna be dozens and dozens more because
Speaker 2: I mean, you see the video of this thing.
Speaker 3: Insane.
Speaker 2: One of the towns forgot which one I was watching
Speaker 2: an interview yesterday. This is the third hurricane that hit
Speaker 2: in a year. At what point do you say, Okay,
Speaker 2: this is a sign from God, get the hell out
Speaker 2: of here. Oh no, we're gonna rebuild. We're not gonna
Speaker 2: we're not gonna leave.
Speaker 4: Time to move to Oklahoma.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no kidding. And then you get struck by lightning
Speaker 2: or a tornado and it takes your house out twice
Speaker 2: in one year, and then at some point you go,
Speaker 2: you know what, let's move the North Dakota. The worst
Speaker 2: that happens is a moose runs you over and you die.
Speaker 1: That weird, how out of all these natural disasters if
Speaker 1: they put them in a circle, we'd probably I'll go
Speaker 1: I'll take the earthquakes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, except when the big one hits. When that big
Speaker 2: one hits, the good thing about an earthquake is it's over. Basically,
Speaker 2: it hits, it's over, except for the aftershocks that go
Speaker 2: on and on and on. But for the most part,
Speaker 2: the big one hits, you don't drown. I mean, you know,
Speaker 2: there's rubble above you.
Speaker 1: But you know, the.
Speaker 2: Reality is that if you have a building or a
Speaker 2: house that was built in the last twenty thirty years,
Speaker 2: I mean, it'll be damage, you'll destroy, but you'll probably survive. Okay,
Speaker 2: moving on, Well.
Speaker 5: This fire's got some flare. The fire that's burning in
Speaker 5: San Bernardino County, of course, we have the three big
Speaker 5: ones burning down here, flared up and that prompted some
Speaker 5: new evacuation orders yesterday afternoon, so it's active fire again.
Speaker 5: The evacuation orders are in place for Seven Oaks, also
Speaker 5: the Barton Flats area, including all the campgrounds and cabins,
Speaker 5: and then warnings are in place in Angelus Oaks and
Speaker 5: the Older Bear area of Big Bear. The good news
Speaker 5: is the fire is still eighty three percent surrounded it's
Speaker 5: burned almost forty three thousand acres. It started on September fifth.
Speaker 5: This is the one that was arson. The other two
Speaker 5: accidentally started.
Speaker 2: It's three weeks now. Ben Now the story tends to disappear.
Speaker 2: The disaster keeps on staying, but the news part of
Speaker 2: it is okay, new news cycle, Let's move on. It's
Speaker 2: tough these wildfires, and they're gonna get worse. That's the
Speaker 2: problem climatologists, whether people said, be prepared for a lot worse.
Speaker 2: And one of the things that all the climate experts
Speaker 2: who said the world's going to a hell in a
Speaker 2: handbsk it. I'll tell where they were dead wrong. The
Speaker 2: speed it is going far faster than what was anticipated.
Speaker 3: Wow, I will tell you this.
Speaker 1: The Boulder Bay area Big Bear is gorgeous, and of
Speaker 1: course on that south side you get into the village
Speaker 1: there and stuff, and if it continues cree being in
Speaker 1: that area would be devastating for the.
Speaker 3: Big Bear Lake area.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's no fine, It's so fine. I've said
Speaker 2: it many times. You know, it's tough for my kids
Speaker 2: and the grand kids. You know, I'm gonna be happy
Speaker 2: that when this, when it all burns up, when Hell
Speaker 2: is actually here. You know how you tell me you're
Speaker 2: I'm going to Hell all the time, Neil. Yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's going to be all universal. We're all going to
Speaker 2: live there. Okay, let's take a break.
Speaker 1: The only difference is when you die, you're going to
Speaker 1: continue to be in global warming.
Speaker 2: Well I don't like the cold, so it's fine with me.
Speaker 3: Oh, you're going to love this place, okay.
Speaker 1: Talking about time flying time is absolutely running out to
Speaker 1: avoid a work stoppage it ports along the East and
Speaker 1: Gulf coasts in what could be the most disruptive strike
Speaker 1: yay to the US economy in decades. Of course, this
Speaker 1: is the International Longshoreman's Association. They're set to go on
Speaker 1: strike at twelve o one a m. Eastern Time Tuesday
Speaker 1: at three dozen facilities spread across fourteen port authorities.
Speaker 2: Yes, when you look at what the union is asking
Speaker 2: for more pay, Okay, I'll buy that benefits better working conditions,
Speaker 2: that's fine with me. But they're also saying, slow down
Speaker 2: the automation. We do not want the ports automated because
Speaker 2: that'll take that will take our workers off the payroll.
Speaker 2: Now can you imagine that kind of thinking? Can you
Speaker 2: imagine the United Auto Workers saying no more robotics.
Speaker 3: None, well we wor pardon didn't they push back on
Speaker 3: that yet?
Speaker 2: I mean, you can't stop that, you I mean you
Speaker 2: literally cannot see. Yeah, but the.
Speaker 1: People to protect your jobs because of technology, it always
Speaker 1: is ridiculous.
Speaker 2: But that's exactly what the Longshoreman's Union is saying, you know,
Speaker 2: stop the automation, you know, because it's going to put
Speaker 2: people out of work. It's it's pretty tough, it really is,
Speaker 2: because in that sense, they are ledites. And if we
Speaker 2: if we get to go in that direction, where how
Speaker 2: far back do we go? You know, let's go back
Speaker 2: to manufacturing typewriters, because look what the computer has done
Speaker 2: for that. All right, So anyway, is there going to
Speaker 2: be a strike, probably because they're very far off, And
Speaker 2: is that going to decimate the economy. Probably even in
Speaker 2: the short term, it's going to really hit.
Speaker 5: Israel has not let up on the gas. The Israeli
Speaker 5: military said it has killed another high ranking HESBE law
Speaker 5: official in an air strike. This has there have been
Speaker 5: several devastating blows and the killing of the HESBO law leader,
Speaker 5: Hassan Nazraala. So the guy that you took out yesterday
Speaker 5: was the deputy head of Hesbela's Central Council. That makes
Speaker 5: him the seventh senior Hesbela lead that has been killed
Speaker 5: in Israeli strikes in a little over a week.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this changes the dynamics and the equation fairly dramatically.
Speaker 2: With the pagers exploding and those walkie talkis exploding. It
Speaker 2: showed the people of Lebanon and particularly has Belah, how
Speaker 2: well Israeli intelligence has infiltrated. I mean, they know where
Speaker 2: everybody is. And the Israelis are just taking it to
Speaker 2: its full level. They said, we're done, we are done,
Speaker 2: and the people of Lebanon, I mean, this is crazy.
Speaker 2: This isn't Palestinians, this isn't Gaza, where I think it's
Speaker 2: more justified in terms of occupation, et cetera. Israel is
Speaker 2: not at war with Lebanon. Israel has no desire to
Speaker 2: be in Lebanon. It's strictly Hausbolad launching the missiles as
Speaker 2: an act of solidarity, and that's in quotes. Okay, and
Speaker 2: we'll see how much solidarity you want. Israel would pull
Speaker 2: out of that if stopped. I'm convinced of that, maybe
Speaker 2: not anymore Isn't.
Speaker 1: This good news to see some of these people being
Speaker 1: checked off, because that's closer to an end.
Speaker 2: It's not so much closer to an end, you know,
Speaker 2: it's a vacuum that's going to be filled instantly. But Hezbollah, boy,
Speaker 2: it has been degraded, it really has. And Israel is
Speaker 2: now on the it's now on the attack. Took out
Speaker 2: Hohoti tockets, pockets in Yemen, and it's just going balls
Speaker 2: to the wall. Israel's fully prepared to do a two
Speaker 2: front war straight out. And so the next step is
Speaker 2: maybe an incursion like it happened in two thousand and six,
Speaker 2: which was a disaster for everybody, including Israel. All Right,
Speaker 2: so we'll be talking about that this week. Let's go
Speaker 2: ahead and.
Speaker 3: Move on, all right.
Speaker 1: Governor Handsome Gavin voted vetoed rather at bill just yesterday
Speaker 1: that would have instituted the nation's strictest artificial intelligence regulations.
Speaker 3: So basically, you've.
Speaker 1: Got a bunch of tech and venture capitalists who lobbied
Speaker 1: fiercely against this legislation, and they said it would be
Speaker 1: a setback or a setback for technology and everything. And
Speaker 1: so this is actually good news for tech people.
Speaker 3: But there are those that want big.
Speaker 1: Time AI regulations and they're obviously disappointed.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm going to be talking about at seven
Speaker 2: o'clock there are new laws kicking in and also on
Speaker 2: top of that, so there we'll talk about that. At
Speaker 2: seven o'clock, we.
Speaker 4: Have lift off.
Speaker 5: Our friend, Colonel Nick Haig, who's been a guest on
Speaker 5: wake Up Call several times, launched from Cape Canaveral on
Speaker 5: Saturday with a Russian cosmonaut. They were headed to the
Speaker 5: International Space Station, which they reached yesterday and they're now
Speaker 5: going to be there for six months, and then when
Speaker 5: they're done, they're going to bring back Butch Wilmore and
Speaker 5: Sonny William they're the ones from the Boeing star Liner
Speaker 5: that got stuck up there.
Speaker 4: Because the star Liner is a mess.
Speaker 2: Now, you would think they could just bring up a
Speaker 2: ship SpaceX ship to rescue quote not rescue, because there's
Speaker 2: no rescue necessary to bring down. The astronauts that are
Speaker 2: going to stay there are eight months instead of one week.
Speaker 2: And I was reading this is even though with two
Speaker 2: seats empty, it's still going to be months and months
Speaker 2: because SpaceX is so backlogged and every seat is taken
Speaker 2: and is in advance. It's all taken. So this thing
Speaker 2: is going to open up in I think February is
Speaker 2: when they're coming.
Speaker 5: Back, right, Yeah, And they had to bump two of
Speaker 5: the astronauts from the mission, a NASA astronaut and a cosmonaut.
Speaker 4: We're supposed to go up on with Colonel Haig.
Speaker 2: And yes, so let me ask you those two astronauts
Speaker 2: that are bumped, you think they're going to be spokespeople
Speaker 2: for Boeing. Probably not not very happy with that company.
Speaker 4: They'll go up again just later.
Speaker 1: All right, Teresa Flores, she's still very much in shock
Speaker 1: after forty eight Your old son was fatally shot aboard
Speaker 1: a hijacked metro bus. Earlier this week, we all heard
Speaker 1: about this story, just ramping up the hillacious stories of
Speaker 1: what's going on on the La Metro. Anthony Rivera her son,
Speaker 1: a former National guardsman. He was shot and killed on
Speaker 1: a metro bus when it was hijacked in South La.
Speaker 3: Just Wednesday morning.
Speaker 1: She said she didn't believe it when the cops came
Speaker 1: and told her, could you imagine?
Speaker 2: No, No, I just can't holrific your son has been
Speaker 2: killed on a bus. Yeah, on a bus. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 2: we're not getting much information about the guy who hold on,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna sneeze.
Speaker 1: Hang on, please stand by for the sneeze off.
Speaker 2: And I turned off the microphone. Usually I sneeze right now.
Speaker 3: It was a big boy.
Speaker 2: Oh god, this mic sock is dripping.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, let's let's move on.
Speaker 1: Where was I You were profusely shooting your secretion over
Speaker 1: your mic sof.
Speaker 2: Yeah. In any case, we don't know much about this
Speaker 2: guy motive or whatever at this point, but it's still.
Speaker 1: You just think it's a crazy homeless person.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did, or something along those lines. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: think so. I don't think it was targeted in any way.
Speaker 2: I just think unfortunately, there's too many crazies out.
Speaker 3: There and make any demands no and on.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And on top of that, it's too easy to
Speaker 2: get on a bus, you know, with a weapon. I mean,
Speaker 2: there's just no one stops you from doing that if
Speaker 2: you hide your weapon.
Speaker 5: And yeah, oh, it's ridiculous that we even have to
Speaker 5: worry about it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is ridiculous, all right, it's too one more.
Speaker 4: Missus Thomas has been targeted.
Speaker 5: Jinny Thomas, who is the wife of Supreme Court Justice
Speaker 5: Clarence Thomas was among the prominent political figures that are
Speaker 5: raign and hackers were trying to impersonate as they tried
Speaker 5: to target people associated with former President Trump. US federal
Speaker 5: prosecutors unsealed criminal charges against three Iranian government linked hackers
Speaker 5: in connection with that hacking operation aimed at Trump.
Speaker 2: It's weird that they're hacking into former President Trump's emails
Speaker 2: and his campaign, because especially using Genie Thomas. I mean,
Speaker 2: she is the queen of the deniers, election deniers, you know,
Speaker 2: as you know, she's like a conspiracy theorist of the
Speaker 2: first water. You would think it'd be the other way around,
Speaker 2: wouldn't she. But maybe it's I don't know, a red
Speaker 2: flag or red herring or blue mackerel.
Speaker 3: Chaos is chaos. Yes, we spread chaos.
Speaker 1: It just causes confusion, and that's good in their book.
Speaker 1: I would imagine Donald Trump, former president, can stop the
Speaker 1: insults pouring from his face. On Sunday, he repeated his
Speaker 1: personal insults about Vice President Kamala Harris and her mental state.
Speaker 1: GOP allies are urging him stay on message. Donald avoid
Speaker 1: these attacks after he made a similar remark at a
Speaker 1: rally the night before so he basically was saying Joe
Speaker 1: Biden became mentally impaired. It's sad, but lying Kamala Harris, honestly,
Speaker 1: I believe she was born that way.
Speaker 3: Kamala is mentally impaired.
Speaker 2: That is tough. I mean, you know, he this is
Speaker 2: self destruction on his part. I mean, what good does
Speaker 2: he think that does? Even Lindsey Graham, who would take
Speaker 2: a bullet for him, says, you know, stick to the issues.
Speaker 2: We'll never say has said anything wrong. I mean saying
Speaker 2: that she's mentally impaired, there's nothing wrong with that. Or
Speaker 2: saying that Haitians eat cats and dogs, there's nothing inherently
Speaker 2: wrong with that. I may even agree with that, but
Speaker 2: you know, I can't say that. Stick to the issues.
Speaker 2: You got some strong issues, very strong issues. You got
Speaker 2: the economy. You have the border, which, by the way,
Speaker 2: we're going to be here spectacular lies about what's happening
Speaker 2: at the border. You know, for example, in this Trump's
Speaker 2: first year, not one terrorists came in, that's what the
Speaker 2: border patrol called not one, and his worst year, eleven
Speaker 2: came in. But with Harris thirteen thousand, Biden Harris thirteen
Speaker 2: thousand have come in all right, you know, so it's
Speaker 2: twelve to thirteen thousand. They just why not.
Speaker 1: I will tell you, working in radio with talent for
Speaker 1: a long time, especially talent that's been in it for
Speaker 1: a long time, and seeing talent age not just at KFI,
Speaker 1: other stations as well. The reality is, if you have
Speaker 1: success doing something, it's hard to change from that.
Speaker 2: And it is now.
Speaker 3: It is.
Speaker 1: It was very successful with that method the first time,
Speaker 1: and it's going to be a hard thing to separate.
Speaker 2: And it's just dumb. I mean it said, now we're
Speaker 2: getting new personal personal stuff. I can't wait for him
Speaker 2: to argue that she has STDs or you know whatever.
Speaker 2: I it's just, yeah, where do you go with this's
Speaker 2: not helping himself, it's not he has to go for
Speaker 2: that middle ground. He's got some strong stuff. Take it,
Speaker 2: use it, okay, Oh you're some news.
Speaker 4: It's a girl.
Speaker 3: It's a girl.
Speaker 5: Claudia is Shinbaum will officially become the first woman president
Speaker 5: in Mexico's two hundred year history. She's scheduled to be
Speaker 5: sworn in tomorrow. Women didn't have the right to vote
Speaker 5: in Mexico until nineteen fifty three. The first woman was
Speaker 5: elected as a federal representative in nineteen fifty four. And
Speaker 5: now women make up about fifty percent of the House
Speaker 5: in Congress, but they haven't had a woman leader before.
Speaker 2: Do you find it. I was stunned by that figure.
Speaker 2: Women got the vote, the right to vote nineteen fifty
Speaker 2: three in Mexico. I mean pretty crazy stuff. Of course,
Speaker 2: you go to Afghanistan, women can't.
Speaker 3: And when did we get it?
Speaker 2: We got nineteen to twenty nineteen twenty, Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 4: Well, I don't remember that far back.
Speaker 1: Oh, I bet you know when probation or prohibition.
Speaker 4: Was nineteen thirty three, Well that's.
Speaker 3: What it ended.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's pretty crazy, nineteen fifty three. All right, Okay,
Speaker 1: Just two and a half percent of homes in the
Speaker 1: US changed hands this year in the first eight months,
Speaker 1: lowest turnover rate in at least thirty years, according to
Speaker 1: an analyst there at Redfin. The latest data from the
Speaker 1: real estate brokerage underscores just how much housing market. The
Speaker 1: housing market is stalled in twenty twenty four. So horrible
Speaker 1: combination record high home price is elevated mortgage rates, very
Speaker 1: unaffordable housing market.
Speaker 2: Yeah, not enough being built. It's too too difficult to
Speaker 2: buy homes, too difficult to build them. Mortgage rates although
Speaker 2: they're dropping, uh, they're gonna they're right on the cusp
Speaker 2: of under six percent. Uh and it was seven point
Speaker 2: eight or something at its highest. So you know, we'll
Speaker 2: we'll see. But it's still it's going to be decades
Speaker 2: before there is enough housing out there. Uh. And the
Speaker 2: cities are making harder and harder build in LA sometimes
Speaker 2: see how difficult they are.
Speaker 1: Well, see, that's what I think it is in California.
Speaker 3: Wants to build.
Speaker 1: There's zero incentive to be a landlord or build or
Speaker 1: do anything out here.
Speaker 2: Got and we're desperate for more housing. That's the fun part.
Speaker 1: And the understand what do you mean we're desperate for
Speaker 1: more housing? We have to house everybody here or can
Speaker 1: they go?
Speaker 2: No, I'm talking about we locally are desperate for more housing.
Speaker 2: Just ask our elected officials screaming about more housing and
Speaker 2: at the same time possible to build more housing. That
Speaker 2: is the insanity of all this. So all right, I
Speaker 2: think we knew one more.
Speaker 5: You may have been hearing Sell Sell Sell as Chrysler
Speaker 5: parents Stilantis made some announcements Monday, saying that they're not
Speaker 5: going to be as profitable as they thought, and their
Speaker 5: cash flow is low, and their stock plunged fourteen percent
Speaker 5: in Milan after the announcement.
Speaker 2: It's almost across the board that they make Ram and
Speaker 2: Jeep and Citron and bog Bugio cars. What do you
Speaker 2: call it? Volkswagon, they'd stock traded lower story. It's yeah,
Speaker 2: car companies right now, good time to buy stocks or not.
Speaker 5: Increased competition from Chinese rivals was listed as one of
Speaker 5: the big reasons.
Speaker 2: Well, the Chinese are going crazy. I'll tell you they're
Speaker 2: not going to be selling cars here.
Speaker 4: I know I was going to. We don't have any
Speaker 4: Chinese cars.
Speaker 2: You won't have any Chinese cars, especially if Donald Trump
Speaker 2: becomes president. China is just done, which by the way,
Speaker 2: is not a bad thing if we can get away
Speaker 2: with it not hurt ourselves. I kind of like the
Speaker 2: idea of American workers. However, you know, do you is
Speaker 2: a car worth ten thousand dollars more for this same
Speaker 2: basic quality because it simply, you know, comes with a
Speaker 2: fortune cookie inside of it.
Speaker 1: Okay, the incredibly likable in my opinion, Former NBC News
Speaker 1: star Brian Williams he is finalizing a deal after a
Speaker 1: long time to anchor live coverage of the presidential election
Speaker 1: results for Amazon's Prime Video now the streamer. This is
Speaker 1: its first attempt at live news coverage. And you remember Williams,
Speaker 1: who's now sixty five. He's been off television since gosh
Speaker 1: leaving NBC.
Speaker 5: Is he the one who got busted for lying about
Speaker 5: being combat Yeah, being in the helicopter and being shot
Speaker 5: at And it turns out it never happened, and so
Speaker 5: uh they which.
Speaker 1: Was unfortunate because he was incredibly likable.
Speaker 2: Oh god, he was fana.
Speaker 4: He was the anchor for NBC thing.
Speaker 2: He'd still be there today. He just got caught up
Speaker 2: in a lie and it's just you can't do that.

Speaker 2: he's been there for a million years and now.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't I never saw. I liked
Speaker 3: them and was trying.
Speaker 2: No, no, no. I like him a lot, but he
Speaker 2: got caught up in it got you know, it's every
Speaker 2: other word is a lot that's in my case, so
Speaker 2: you just expect it. I'm not going to get fired

Speaker 2: in my contract. I have to lie.

Speaker 1: righty handsome Governor Gavin Newsome back in the news. This
Speaker 1: guy wants to be in the news so bad, so bad.
Speaker 1: He signed the first in the nation legislation on Saturday
Speaker 1: that will prevent public schools in California from serving food
Speaker 1: dyes that color fruit loops flame in hot Cheetos, and
Speaker 1: of course that's going to be other processed snacks as well.
Speaker 1: So the blue, red, yellow, and red additives effect affected
Speaker 1: by the band have been linked to hyperactivity and behavioral issues,
Speaker 1: particularly in people who have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or ADHD.
Speaker 3: DoD you have fruit loops?
Speaker 2: No, I no, I've never been a fan of fruit loops.
Speaker 2: Although this is not the first time, by the way,
Speaker 2: that the cereal companies got nailed, you know, when they
Speaker 2: found out that everybody misunderstood tricks are for kids and
Speaker 2: found out what they really meant. There was a lot
Speaker 2: of trouble there. That is horrible. By the way, that
Speaker 2: is absolutely horrible, And I've already gone to that table.
Speaker 3: To that that what I think.
Speaker 2: No, absolutely not, no, I completely deny it. It's I
Speaker 2: never meant that. Ever.
Speaker 3: Some of these colors were in Peeps. That explains a lot.
Speaker 2: That's true, although Peeps cave on that.
Speaker 3: Thank goodness, they changed.
Speaker 2: They changed.
Speaker 1: So I guess if it actually affects kids, then god
Speaker 1: speed if it.
Speaker 3: But if it's one of those things.
Speaker 1: Where the toxicity would have to be eating a billion
Speaker 1: bowls of fruit loops, then silly, careful what you say.
Speaker 4: Because this is reminiscent of the Dixie Chicks.
Speaker 5: Green Day's lead singer, Billy Joe Armstrong had a few
Speaker 5: things to say about the a's leaving for Las Vegas.
Speaker 5: W course, the Oakland Athletics played their last game at
Speaker 5: Oracle Stadium on Thursday, and they're moving to Las Vegas

Speaker 2: Handle on the Law in Vegas, I want to put
Speaker 2: it on the record. I love Las Vegas. Okay, well,
Speaker 2: I absolutely love Las Vegas. Is one of the greatest
Speaker 2: towns in the world. As the other towns they carry
Speaker 2: Handle on the Law by the way, they are some
Speaker 2: of the greatest towns in all of the United States.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 1: I just think it's funny that you're talking about Oakland
Speaker 1: and then saying Las Vegas is an a whole.
Speaker 2: Have you ever flown into Oakland? To go into San
Speaker 2: Francisco and Oakland you drive through and I was stunned
Speaker 2: when I saw this. You drive through miles of r
Speaker 2: v's along the streets that are decrepit and falling apart,
Speaker 2: and tents and I just don't mean a few blocks
Speaker 2: and campments. I'm talking miles of this stuff. And you go.
Speaker 1: I will tell you back in the day when I
Speaker 1: was in the tattoo, the tattooing industry, and I would
Speaker 1: go to a lot of conventions. I went to a
Speaker 1: convention in Oakland, and I got to tell you, you're
Speaker 1: talking about big ass tattoo guys. And there were fights. Ever,
Speaker 1: it was a mess. I saw people back in the day.
Speaker 1: It was pretty surprising to see people openly using drugs,
Speaker 1: like smoking pot. They were smoking pot in front the cops.
Speaker 3: It was. It was one of the crazy No, it's
Speaker 3: not like everywhere.
Speaker 1: I have family in Oakland, yeah and everywhere, But I'm
Speaker 1: just saying that in the parts I was in, it was.
Speaker 3: It was pretty intense. Now to my point, Troy, in
Speaker 3: all kinds of places.
Speaker 2: There are great places in Oakland. There are some very
Speaker 2: high end residential areas in Oakland. So it's not all
Speaker 2: r vs lined up on side.
Speaker 1: When when in and out, Burger like shuts down. It's
Speaker 1: Burger Joint. You know it's a bad city. They left Oakland.

Speaker 2: news Handle on the law heard on radio stations across
Speaker 2: the country. Just want to point that out, including Las Vegas,
Speaker 2: including Las Vegas. And the other thing I want to
Speaker 2: point out is whenever anybody makes fun of the scientologists,
Speaker 2: I think they are a great, great organization, and I
Speaker 2: would never make fun of them, not because I'm frightened
Speaker 2: of them with potential lawsuits or rattlesnakes in my mail
