WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.760 --> 00:00:04.080
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to KFI AM six forty The Bill Handles

2
00:00:04.120 --> 00:00:09.080
<v Speaker 1>show on demand on the iHeartRadio f Bill on vacation,

3
00:00:09.240 --> 00:00:13.160
<v Speaker 1>Wayne Resnik here with you until nine along with the

4
00:00:13.240 --> 00:00:18.480
<v Speaker 1>morning crew. Anne is here. Oh she's doing what Michelle

5
00:00:18.559 --> 00:00:20.719
<v Speaker 1>used to do. Oh no, never mind. I thought I

6
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:25.399
<v Speaker 1>was gonna say man's running around, but you weren't running around?

7
00:00:26.039 --> 00:00:26.640
<v Speaker 1>There you are?

8
00:00:27.199 --> 00:00:29.679
<v Speaker 2>That makes it sound like she's dating everybody.

9
00:00:30.280 --> 00:00:34.840
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, no, Neil, please, there is a long tradition.

10
00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:38.200
<v Speaker 1>How do you not know? This was a long tradition

11
00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:42.479
<v Speaker 1>on this show. If the the producer cannot necessarily just

12
00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:45.359
<v Speaker 1>sit in one place the whole show, they have a

13
00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:47.560
<v Speaker 1>lot of things they have to do. Oh yeah, very

14
00:00:47.560 --> 00:00:50.359
<v Speaker 1>so sometimes when the show starts, they're not sitting in

15
00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:54.920
<v Speaker 1>a certain place. They're running around, as in working. And

16
00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:58.439
<v Speaker 1>there's a long tradition. This is odd that I have

17
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:01.880
<v Speaker 1>to be the historian for you. Okay, but there's a

18
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:04.840
<v Speaker 1>long tradition of if the producer is not right there

19
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:08.480
<v Speaker 1>to say good morning, that the audience is told they

20
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:12.200
<v Speaker 1>are running around and it doesn't mean what you mean?

21
00:01:14.079 --> 00:01:15.840
<v Speaker 1>That is that speaks more to your.

22
00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:19.079
<v Speaker 2>Mind, unless it's the Conway Show in which he always says,

23
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:23.680
<v Speaker 2>whenever Bellyo's not on the micro, she's in the can

24
00:01:24.359 --> 00:01:25.359
<v Speaker 2>every single time.

25
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:30.560
<v Speaker 1>The here's the thing. If you told me that somewhere

26
00:01:30.599 --> 00:01:33.000
<v Speaker 1>out there there was a show or a person who

27
00:01:33.159 --> 00:01:38.840
<v Speaker 1>was less graceful and subtle than Bill, I would have thought, no,

28
00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:42.640
<v Speaker 1>that's not possible. But then along comes Tim Conway Junior.

29
00:01:45.400 --> 00:01:47.599
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, Neil, Good morning, sir.

30
00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:48.079
<v Speaker 2>How are you?

31
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I am fine? How are you?

32
00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:54.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm swell? What's on your mud? Not your face?

33
00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:58.840
<v Speaker 1>This is a poly you know, Polly's Pies the restaurant.

34
00:01:58.840 --> 00:02:02.400
<v Speaker 1>I think, yeah, this is a polyse Pies Conderfall.

35
00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:07.680
<v Speaker 2>Yes, they've been on the program many times. You're talking

36
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:12.960
<v Speaker 2>about the Fork Report. Yes, sir, go ahead and plug it.

37
00:02:13.199 --> 00:02:15.360
<v Speaker 2>Fork Report. I'm not gonna plug that. It's on Saturday.

38
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:16.840
<v Speaker 1>Well you just kind of did you just kind of

39
00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:20.360
<v Speaker 1>you just you just sort of gratuitously connected my coffee

40
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:23.120
<v Speaker 1>mug to your show, the Fork Report on Saturdays here

41
00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:25.840
<v Speaker 1>on KFI. Why not full throated plug?

42
00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:29.479
<v Speaker 2>People know the Fork Reports on Saturdays two to five.

43
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:32.080
<v Speaker 1>Way, I don't do they know? It's all they talk

44
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:40.599
<v Speaker 1>about is my very special uh friend at KFI in

45
00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:43.120
<v Speaker 1>that we we have a thing that I don't have

46
00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:45.000
<v Speaker 1>with anybody else. I don't know if you have it

47
00:02:45.039 --> 00:02:47.759
<v Speaker 1>with anybody else, but I don't have it with anybody else.

48
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:52.240
<v Speaker 1>And that is the the adding of o's to the

49
00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:56.039
<v Speaker 1>end of names. She is Amo king Oh to me,

50
00:02:56.159 --> 00:02:58.840
<v Speaker 1>and that's right.

51
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:00.280
<v Speaker 3>When did we start that?

52
00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:02.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember a long way.

53
00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:03.159
<v Speaker 3>Why didn't we start that?

54
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:07.479
<v Speaker 1>It's a that I definitely don't know. I might someday

55
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:10.800
<v Speaker 1>be able to remember when I will never remember why

56
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:17.400
<v Speaker 1>or how? And uh in for kono oh, he should

57
00:03:17.400 --> 00:03:20.080
<v Speaker 1>be here for this part of the discussion. Is elmea

58
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:26.360
<v Speaker 1>row elm, good morning, good morning? All right? Is everybody ready,

59
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:29.439
<v Speaker 1>because we do have some things that are not that

60
00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:31.360
<v Speaker 1>that that are not frivolous. We have some things that

61
00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:33.319
<v Speaker 1>are pretty serious right now to talk about and handle

62
00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:36.680
<v Speaker 1>on the news. I just want to make sure everybody's ready,

63
00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:41.080
<v Speaker 1>are ready? Here we go, uh Neil Savedra Amo Kingo

64
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:44.000
<v Speaker 1>and me with handle on the news. This is the

65
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:50.280
<v Speaker 1>lead story. We've been talking about the efforts on the

66
00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:53.240
<v Speaker 1>part of the Biden administration to get some kind of

67
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:57.800
<v Speaker 1>indication from Israel as to what specifically they are planning

68
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:03.159
<v Speaker 1>to do to retaliate against Iran. For Iran's missile strike recently,

69
00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:06.639
<v Speaker 1>and for a while it seemed like Israel just didn't

70
00:04:06.639 --> 00:04:10.960
<v Speaker 1>want to give any information. But now we're being told

71
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:15.120
<v Speaker 1>that Israel has a sured President Biden they will not

72
00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:22.720
<v Speaker 1>hit Iran's nuclear facilities or their oil facilities. You can

73
00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:28.480
<v Speaker 1>understand the concern there. If Israel hits Iran's oil facilities,

74
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:31.279
<v Speaker 1>what happens to the price of oil immediately boom through

75
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:36.120
<v Speaker 1>the roof, even if it's not valid based on the

76
00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:38.160
<v Speaker 1>rest of the supply in the world. That's what's going

77
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:40.959
<v Speaker 1>to happen. And so I guess Israel has promised Pinky

78
00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:44.959
<v Speaker 1>promised that they will not hit any of those facilities,

79
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:48.040
<v Speaker 1>that they will go after military or intelligence targets, but

80
00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:51.360
<v Speaker 1>they still won't tell us which targets. They're keeping that

81
00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:52.800
<v Speaker 1>close to the vest.

82
00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:57.839
<v Speaker 2>So women, children, okay, oil no, because cost will go up.

83
00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:02.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't I know that Israel would say that's right, Neil, Yes, women,

84
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:05.920
<v Speaker 1>bombing women and children is okay, but not oil. But

85
00:05:07.279 --> 00:05:11.279
<v Speaker 1>nuclear and oil facilities are the only facilities they have

86
00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:17.279
<v Speaker 1>apparently ruled out. I can't imagine Israel would purposefully bomb

87
00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:20.720
<v Speaker 1>a purely stillion target in Iran.

88
00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:25.279
<v Speaker 2>But your point is well taken, I would hope. So

89
00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:27.439
<v Speaker 2>I'm just saying that it war is.

90
00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:32.360
<v Speaker 1>Weird given given, uh, something else we're gonna get into.

91
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:34.240
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna actually get into it in just a couple

92
00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:39.439
<v Speaker 1>of minutes. Here your your doubt about what Net and

93
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:42.360
<v Speaker 1>Yahoo may or may not be capable of is well placed.

94
00:05:42.399 --> 00:05:44.439
<v Speaker 1>So that's a little teaser for something that will be

95
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:47.839
<v Speaker 1>paid off just in a couple of minutes. But first, Amy,

96
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:53.160
<v Speaker 1>this gas law in California is a bigger deal than

97
00:05:53.240 --> 00:05:55.399
<v Speaker 1>it was even yesterday when it was signed.

98
00:05:55.759 --> 00:06:00.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, gasprike, gas price hikes should now be history. We

99
00:06:01.079 --> 00:06:06.240
<v Speaker 4>shall see. Governor Newsom signed the law yesterday. It's supposed

100
00:06:06.279 --> 00:06:12.040
<v Speaker 4>to stop prices from spiking by requiring the oil refineries

101
00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:15.959
<v Speaker 4>to keep a certain amount of fuel on hand. That

102
00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:19.000
<v Speaker 4>would keep prices more stable if the refineries have to

103
00:06:19.040 --> 00:06:21.680
<v Speaker 4>go offline for maintenance or something like that, or there

104
00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:22.480
<v Speaker 4>are shortages.

105
00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:25.839
<v Speaker 1>And we were talking just yesterday about how the oil

106
00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:28.279
<v Speaker 1>industry is saying, oh, we don't even know if we

107
00:06:28.319 --> 00:06:30.839
<v Speaker 1>can store enough gasoline. We don't know. If we have

108
00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:34.360
<v Speaker 1>to build tanks, it might actually end up making the

109
00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:38.680
<v Speaker 1>price of gas go up. And at seven to prove

110
00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:41.720
<v Speaker 1>that this thing is still a huge deal and controversy.

111
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:48.040
<v Speaker 1>There's another angle coming from another group of folks about

112
00:06:48.079 --> 00:06:53.120
<v Speaker 1>why this law that Newsom signed yesterday is so bad.

113
00:06:55.319 --> 00:06:57.759
<v Speaker 2>I want to know how much he pays for petroleum

114
00:06:57.839 --> 00:07:00.000
<v Speaker 2>to products for his hair.

115
00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:11.519
<v Speaker 5>Yes, sing zing the hot guy exactly all right.

116
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:15.720
<v Speaker 2>As Wayne was alluding to more coming out of Israel,

117
00:07:15.879 --> 00:07:19.560
<v Speaker 2>Israeli Prime Minister of Benjamin Nettan Yahoo, he's kind of

118
00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:23.639
<v Speaker 2>mulling over the plan to seal off humanitarian aid to

119
00:07:23.800 --> 00:07:27.040
<v Speaker 2>northern Gaza and attempt to starve out Hamas militant. So

120
00:07:29.120 --> 00:07:32.519
<v Speaker 2>this could trap you know, everybody there in the northern

121
00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:37.199
<v Speaker 2>part Uh without food or water. Now, the thought here

122
00:07:37.319 --> 00:07:40.240
<v Speaker 2>is that they get a week or so to get

123
00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:45.000
<v Speaker 2>everyone out that is not a combatant, and then in

124
00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:48.519
<v Speaker 2>his thoughts, anybody that remained is a combatant.

125
00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:52.759
<v Speaker 1>But but in practical terms that's probably not true. No,

126
00:07:53.079 --> 00:07:54.959
<v Speaker 1>there are people, there are people, believe it or not,

127
00:07:55.079 --> 00:07:58.439
<v Speaker 1>there will be people who don't get the message. That's howkay.

128
00:07:58.480 --> 00:08:00.720
<v Speaker 1>It's so chaotic. There'll be there will be people who

129
00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:02.839
<v Speaker 1>don't get the message. And there will be people who

130
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:07.160
<v Speaker 1>will not get the message because on purpose Hamas will

131
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:10.480
<v Speaker 1>not let them get the message. To get out. There

132
00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:13.959
<v Speaker 1>will be people who understand what's happening but can't get out.

133
00:08:14.720 --> 00:08:17.920
<v Speaker 1>And if you think Hamas is gonna let everybody get

134
00:08:17.959 --> 00:08:22.800
<v Speaker 1>out and lose their ability to talk about how civilians

135
00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:26.600
<v Speaker 1>are suffering in Gaza at the hands of Israel, then

136
00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:29.439
<v Speaker 1>you're crazy because they're not going to let that happen.

137
00:08:29.879 --> 00:08:33.279
<v Speaker 1>So therefore, I declare this a bad plan because it's

138
00:08:33.320 --> 00:08:36.039
<v Speaker 1>based on a false premise, which is you could successfully

139
00:08:36.120 --> 00:08:40.960
<v Speaker 1>get out of Gaza every single person who is not

140
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:44.200
<v Speaker 1>a direct combatant threat to Israel, and you can't.

141
00:08:44.679 --> 00:08:48.080
<v Speaker 2>How do you what would you if you have any idea?

142
00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:51.840
<v Speaker 2>Do they drop leaflets? How do they go about trying

143
00:08:51.879 --> 00:08:54.240
<v Speaker 2>to articulate, hey, get the hell out of here?

144
00:08:54.360 --> 00:08:56.919
<v Speaker 1>That is one of the methods they do drop leaflets,

145
00:08:57.279 --> 00:08:59.320
<v Speaker 1>and they try to send word over and they get

146
00:08:59.360 --> 00:09:03.759
<v Speaker 1>on they get on PA systems and make announcements. But

147
00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:07.559
<v Speaker 1>it's just it doesn't mean you could ever say we

148
00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:11.600
<v Speaker 1>now know everybody there is a bad guy. So what

149
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:15.399
<v Speaker 1>he's saying is we'll just assume everybody there is a

150
00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:18.480
<v Speaker 1>bad guy and then we're going to do a thing.

151
00:09:19.679 --> 00:09:21.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, a lot of the world has already turned

152
00:09:21.480 --> 00:09:24.679
<v Speaker 1>against Israel on this and if they do this where

153
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:31.600
<v Speaker 1>they absolutely stop any food, medical aid, water there, they

154
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:32.720
<v Speaker 1>may never recover.

155
00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:37.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's not legal, right for the Geneva Convention, it's.

156
00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:40.879
<v Speaker 1>Not, but their thing would still be. But you can't

157
00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:43.159
<v Speaker 1>do that to civilian populations. And they're going to say,

158
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:46.080
<v Speaker 1>we're not doing it to civilian populations. We told all

159
00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:48.960
<v Speaker 1>the civilian population to get out. We're only doing it

160
00:09:49.000 --> 00:09:52.440
<v Speaker 1>to enemy combatants. And then that's the big argument is

161
00:09:52.600 --> 00:09:57.120
<v Speaker 1>are you is every single person there an enemy combatant? Still,

162
00:09:57.440 --> 00:10:00.639
<v Speaker 1>that's why it's a bad plan. There's no for Israel

163
00:10:00.759 --> 00:10:04.960
<v Speaker 1>to prove that they're not violating the Geneva Convention. It's

164
00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:08.039
<v Speaker 1>just that they have to figure out another way. Bill

165
00:10:08.080 --> 00:10:11.559
<v Speaker 1>on vacation, Wayne Resnik here sitting until nine, Amy King

166
00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:15.559
<v Speaker 1>is here, Neil is here, and is here, Elmer's here

167
00:10:15.600 --> 00:10:18.440
<v Speaker 1>for Kono. That's your crew today and we are a

168
00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:23.879
<v Speaker 1>continuing handle on the news. Uh. This is another story

169
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:30.759
<v Speaker 1>that is related to what Neil brought up about the

170
00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:34.360
<v Speaker 1>mindset of a Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel and what kinds

171
00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:39.399
<v Speaker 1>of things he might be capable of ordering with regard

172
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:44.679
<v Speaker 1>to retaliating against Iran for their missile attack and in

173
00:10:44.720 --> 00:10:49.360
<v Speaker 1>regards to the next steps with regard to Gaza, and

174
00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:53.120
<v Speaker 1>this this is a little window I think further maybe

175
00:10:53.159 --> 00:10:57.399
<v Speaker 1>into the mindset. You know, there was a gentleman named

176
00:10:57.440 --> 00:11:02.679
<v Speaker 1>Hirsh Goldberg, Poland who was taken hostage and killed by Hamas,

177
00:11:04.360 --> 00:11:07.080
<v Speaker 1>and his parents have been in the media and talking

178
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:09.960
<v Speaker 1>about it, and they did an interview with Anderson Cooper

179
00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:14.919
<v Speaker 1>on CNN and the only thing I want to focus on,

180
00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:16.960
<v Speaker 1>because a lot of it is just what you would expect,

181
00:11:17.000 --> 00:11:20.679
<v Speaker 1>how heartbroken they are and all those things. But they

182
00:11:20.759 --> 00:11:25.639
<v Speaker 1>said that at one point they expressed concern to Israel

183
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:32.200
<v Speaker 1>that as the military pressure mounted, that Hamas might start

184
00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:38.960
<v Speaker 1>executing hostages, and they say officials from Israel assured them

185
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.039
<v Speaker 1>that that was not going to happen.

186
00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:45.120
<v Speaker 2>And it did.

187
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:49.759
<v Speaker 1>And the point being, again, did they believe it might

188
00:11:49.799 --> 00:11:53.600
<v Speaker 1>happen but they told them otherwise? Did they actually not

189
00:11:53.799 --> 00:11:58.080
<v Speaker 1>believe it would happen when in fact it did. Is

190
00:11:58.120 --> 00:12:01.080
<v Speaker 1>this more akin to when they had a lot of

191
00:12:01.080 --> 00:12:04.360
<v Speaker 1>intelligence telling them I'm talking about Israel. Now, they had

192
00:12:04.399 --> 00:12:07.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of intelligence telling them that Hamas was going

193
00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:11.240
<v Speaker 1>to launch the kind of attack against them that they

194
00:12:11.240 --> 00:12:15.519
<v Speaker 1>did on October seventh, And yet somehow either didn't want

195
00:12:15.559 --> 00:12:18.559
<v Speaker 1>to stop it or failed to stop it, So that

196
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:21.840
<v Speaker 1>would be some kind of incompetence. I don't know how

197
00:12:21.840 --> 00:12:25.360
<v Speaker 1>else to characterize it. Or is this some kind of

198
00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:30.399
<v Speaker 1>two faced chicanery on the part of Israeli officials saying

199
00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:33.320
<v Speaker 1>things to the face of the parents of hostages that

200
00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:36.240
<v Speaker 1>maybe they know they shouldn't be saying because they're not

201
00:12:36.840 --> 00:12:43.000
<v Speaker 1>entirely true. But imagine expressing your concern, being told you're crazy,

202
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:45.399
<v Speaker 1>that's not going to happen, and then the very thing

203
00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:53.559
<v Speaker 1>you were concerned about happens and there's still stuff going

204
00:12:53.600 --> 00:12:54.240
<v Speaker 1>on over there.

205
00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:59.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, as that continues, Israel continues to pound Lebanon and gods,

206
00:12:59.840 --> 00:13:04.360
<v Speaker 4>and of course Lebanon's firing back, and Israeli airstrike has

207
00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:07.639
<v Speaker 4>hit an apartment building in northern Lebanon, killing at least

208
00:13:07.759 --> 00:13:11.039
<v Speaker 4>twenty one people, according to the Lebanese Red Cross. The

209
00:13:11.080 --> 00:13:14.200
<v Speaker 4>strike comes a day after a Hesbel drone attack on

210
00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:17.960
<v Speaker 4>an army base in northern Israel killed four soldiers. All

211
00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:22.039
<v Speaker 4>of them were nineteen years old. Well, so you've got

212
00:13:22.360 --> 00:13:24.639
<v Speaker 4>the only thing I'm not hearing about. And if I'm

213
00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:27.159
<v Speaker 4>missing something, Amy or Neil or anybody, if I'm missing it,

214
00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:30.799
<v Speaker 4>just pipe in because we're hearing about back and forth

215
00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:33.720
<v Speaker 4>now between Israel and Iran, and we're hearing back and

216
00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:37.679
<v Speaker 4>forth attacks between Israel and Hesbelah in Lebanon, which is

217
00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:42.440
<v Speaker 4>a proxy for Iran, and we're hearing about Israel doing

218
00:13:42.519 --> 00:13:45.440
<v Speaker 4>strikes and things in Gaza. The only thing I'm not

219
00:13:45.519 --> 00:13:53.159
<v Speaker 4>hearing about is retaliation coming out of Gaza. And that's interesting,

220
00:13:53.240 --> 00:13:55.759
<v Speaker 4>it might speak first of all, maybe I'm just missing

221
00:13:55.799 --> 00:13:56.600
<v Speaker 4>those incidents.

222
00:13:56.799 --> 00:13:58.759
<v Speaker 3>They're still firing, they are.

223
00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:04.639
<v Speaker 1>Still firing back. Yeah, all right, let's switch gears to

224
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:08.240
<v Speaker 1>a completely different situation and the threat of a lawsuit.

225
00:14:10.440 --> 00:14:13.840
<v Speaker 2>This is interesting. So we heard about VEM. Miller forty

226
00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:21.240
<v Speaker 2>nine just this past Saturday, was arrested there in Coachella

227
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:25.759
<v Speaker 2>with the Donald Trump rally that was going on there,

228
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:30.559
<v Speaker 2>that his campaign rally, And they found this man to

229
00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:33.879
<v Speaker 2>have a lot of weird stuff in his vehicle, including

230
00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:39.519
<v Speaker 2>those sovereign license plates on his unregistered car that said,

231
00:14:39.759 --> 00:14:43.120
<v Speaker 2>you know that I don't really have to listen to you,

232
00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:48.000
<v Speaker 2>Nina Niner. And then they had loaded weapons, which is

233
00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:53.519
<v Speaker 2>illegal to take from Nevada, I believe, to California, and

234
00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:58.120
<v Speaker 2>all this stuff. Well, he got he's gotten mad. And

235
00:14:58.159 --> 00:15:02.000
<v Speaker 2>in a video statement he released on Monday, is calling

236
00:15:02.080 --> 00:15:07.200
<v Speaker 2>for local lawman's claims that he posed an assassination threat

237
00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:12.200
<v Speaker 2>false and defamatory, and that he's a staunch supporter of

238
00:15:12.279 --> 00:15:17.279
<v Speaker 2>Republican nominee Donald Trump. There So now he's going after

239
00:15:17.480 --> 00:15:22.320
<v Speaker 2>Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, who is not a not

240
00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:26.320
<v Speaker 2>one to sit in the back quiet. I kind of

241
00:15:26.399 --> 00:15:28.480
<v Speaker 2>like it about him actually, that he's kind of an

242
00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:32.480
<v Speaker 2>upfront fellow. But he said he stands by his comments

243
00:15:32.639 --> 00:15:35.799
<v Speaker 2>and his department's actions and would handle the incident the

244
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:37.440
<v Speaker 2>same way if it happened tomorrow.

245
00:15:38.679 --> 00:15:39.799
<v Speaker 1>Threatening a lawsuit.

246
00:15:40.799 --> 00:15:44.639
<v Speaker 4>Was he was arrested on weapons charges. He wasn't arrested

247
00:15:44.679 --> 00:15:48.840
<v Speaker 4>on attempted assassination, but says he might sue because of

248
00:15:49.399 --> 00:15:54.000
<v Speaker 4>Chad Bianco's comments that the sheriff said he probably thwarted

249
00:15:54.039 --> 00:15:55.679
<v Speaker 4>a third assassination attempt.

250
00:15:56.799 --> 00:15:59.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and yeah, well filing that lawsuit.

251
00:16:01.960 --> 00:16:04.559
<v Speaker 2>When you look down the list of things in the

252
00:16:04.559 --> 00:16:07.200
<v Speaker 2>car and the situation, I would have said the same.

253
00:16:08.399 --> 00:16:10.080
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's not really it's like, that's not what

254
00:16:10.120 --> 00:16:13.320
<v Speaker 2>I was doing. It's like, Okay, you had multiple loaded

255
00:16:13.360 --> 00:16:16.960
<v Speaker 2>weapons that you crossed state lines.

256
00:16:16.600 --> 00:16:20.679
<v Speaker 4>With which he said he didn't know that was illegal. Okay,

257
00:16:21.000 --> 00:16:23.399
<v Speaker 4>I'm just saying, I'm just saying what he knows, what.

258
00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:23.960
<v Speaker 1>He thought that.

259
00:16:23.960 --> 00:16:26.480
<v Speaker 2>He said he didn't know that it was illegal to

260
00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:27.840
<v Speaker 2>have the magazine.

261
00:16:28.360 --> 00:16:30.039
<v Speaker 4>You are correct, he said he didn't know it was

262
00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:33.960
<v Speaker 4>illegal to have those weapons in California. He also said

263
00:16:34.000 --> 00:16:36.840
<v Speaker 4>he's not a member of that sovereign.

264
00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:39.639
<v Speaker 2>Society, although he had the sovereign license.

265
00:16:39.320 --> 00:16:43.159
<v Speaker 4>Exactly, and he had several passports with several different names on.

266
00:16:43.120 --> 00:16:49.360
<v Speaker 2>It and driver's driver license. But I would say, you know,

267
00:16:49.480 --> 00:16:52.159
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to get sued. It's just my opinion.

268
00:16:52.679 --> 00:16:54.639
<v Speaker 2>What did you say yesterday when he said the most

269
00:16:54.679 --> 00:16:57.919
<v Speaker 2>beautiful statement, constitutional opinion?

270
00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, based on publicly available information.

271
00:17:02.840 --> 00:17:06.640
<v Speaker 2>Yes, everything I see he strikes me as being nuts.

272
00:17:07.880 --> 00:17:12.480
<v Speaker 1>He has no case for a bunch of reasons, because

273
00:17:12.680 --> 00:17:16.720
<v Speaker 1>how are you going to prove that when Sheriff Bianco said, hey,

274
00:17:16.759 --> 00:17:19.200
<v Speaker 1>I think we may have thwarted an attempt, But that

275
00:17:19.440 --> 00:17:23.839
<v Speaker 1>was a false statement that Bianco knew was false or

276
00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:29.400
<v Speaker 1>had reason to believe was false. That's his opinion of

277
00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:32.119
<v Speaker 1>a situation. Not to mention that he is a law

278
00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:35.640
<v Speaker 1>He is a law enforcement official speaking officially about law

279
00:17:35.720 --> 00:17:40.839
<v Speaker 1>enforcement matters, which means he gets more leeway in terms

280
00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:43.039
<v Speaker 1>of what he says. So it's just you can threaten

281
00:17:43.079 --> 00:17:45.680
<v Speaker 1>a lawsuit. That's not the same thing as filing a lawsuit.

282
00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:48.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't think there'll be a lawsuit. If there's a lawsuit,

283
00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:52.720
<v Speaker 1>it's being thrown out, you know, a preliminary at a

284
00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:53.839
<v Speaker 1>preliminary stage.

285
00:17:54.319 --> 00:17:58.160
<v Speaker 2>You may or may not know this, but you brilliantly

286
00:17:58.519 --> 00:18:01.799
<v Speaker 2>had experience with the folks because they go they would

287
00:18:01.799 --> 00:18:05.319
<v Speaker 2>go through the tax court, and you were explaining how

288
00:18:05.359 --> 00:18:09.240
<v Speaker 2>you dealt with them. In your mind, if they don't

289
00:18:09.279 --> 00:18:12.920
<v Speaker 2>recognize the courts and they're sovereign out of the how

290
00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:15.680
<v Speaker 2>do they sue someone in the courts that they don't recognize.

291
00:18:16.319 --> 00:18:22.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well, such a good question. Listen, they recognize the

292
00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:27.559
<v Speaker 1>authority of the government. When they need something that only

293
00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:31.640
<v Speaker 1>the government can do, Suddenly they will recognize the The

294
00:18:31.680 --> 00:18:36.480
<v Speaker 1>alternative is, and I've seen this happen. He files the

295
00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:45.079
<v Speaker 1>lawsuit in some fake sovereign court in his room, and

296
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:47.440
<v Speaker 1>then you've got to figure out who's gonna who's gonna

297
00:18:47.480 --> 00:18:51.519
<v Speaker 1>serve the loss. It's look, it's please, here's the thing

298
00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:52.559
<v Speaker 1>we're talking about.

299
00:18:52.599 --> 00:18:52.680
<v Speaker 3>It.

300
00:18:52.680 --> 00:18:55.319
<v Speaker 1>We're trying to talk about it and and give it

301
00:18:55.759 --> 00:19:01.240
<v Speaker 1>some do respect as a legitimate thing that maybe we

302
00:19:01.279 --> 00:19:04.680
<v Speaker 1>think is wrong. But no, no, it's just craziness, that's

303
00:19:04.680 --> 00:19:08.680
<v Speaker 1>all it is. And any time that those people come

304
00:19:08.759 --> 00:19:13.240
<v Speaker 1>up against the government because there's an issue, they always

305
00:19:13.559 --> 00:19:19.960
<v Speaker 1>lose every time, so they don't it doesn't it's a

306
00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:23.720
<v Speaker 1>thing you should dismiss. Like flat earthers. They are the

307
00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:29.720
<v Speaker 1>flat earthers of governmental theory. The acting US Labor Secretary

308
00:19:29.960 --> 00:19:33.759
<v Speaker 1>Julie Sue went to Seattle yesterday to try to get

309
00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:37.720
<v Speaker 1>this strike by Boeing factory workers to resolve itself sooner

310
00:19:37.799 --> 00:19:43.000
<v Speaker 1>rather than later. There's about thirty three thousand Boeing workers

311
00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:47.119
<v Speaker 1>on strike. This strike now has entered its second month.

312
00:19:49.160 --> 00:19:52.160
<v Speaker 1>They want a forty percent wage increase over four years,

313
00:19:52.160 --> 00:19:57.480
<v Speaker 1>so ten percent a year each year for four years,

314
00:19:57.519 --> 00:20:00.599
<v Speaker 1>and I remember Boeing offered them I think thirty percent

315
00:20:00.799 --> 00:20:03.839
<v Speaker 1>and they said that's not enough. And then Boeing said, oh,

316
00:20:03.839 --> 00:20:06.799
<v Speaker 1>well then you can't have it. We're taking it off

317
00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:09.200
<v Speaker 1>the table. We're taking off the table the thing you

318
00:20:09.279 --> 00:20:12.160
<v Speaker 1>already told us you don't want. This is like Neil,

319
00:20:13.480 --> 00:20:17.200
<v Speaker 1>when you've made dinner for the family and you put

320
00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:19.480
<v Speaker 1>a plate of Brussels sprouts in front of Max, your

321
00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:22.880
<v Speaker 1>delightful son. You go, here are Brussels sprouts, and he said,

322
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:25.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to eat that crap. And then you go, well,

323
00:20:25.119 --> 00:20:27.839
<v Speaker 1>now you can't have any I don't think. I don't

324
00:20:27.880 --> 00:20:32.240
<v Speaker 1>think you've scored a point, and I don't think Boeing

325
00:20:32.279 --> 00:20:35.400
<v Speaker 1>scored a point. I break up with you first. Yeah, exactly.

326
00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:38.640
<v Speaker 1>So in any event, Bowie, here's the thing. So the

327
00:20:38.640 --> 00:20:44.960
<v Speaker 1>strike's been going on since September thirteenth. On Friday, after

328
00:20:45.359 --> 00:20:49.079
<v Speaker 1>business hours, Boeing released a statement saying, you know what

329
00:20:49.119 --> 00:20:54.839
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna do. They're gonna take five billion dollars in losses.

330
00:20:56.200 --> 00:20:59.079
<v Speaker 1>They're going to book those losses, and they're gonna cut

331
00:20:59.119 --> 00:21:05.039
<v Speaker 1>seventeen thousand jobs. Now supposedly, none of the jobs that

332
00:21:05.079 --> 00:21:07.960
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna cut are any of the workers who are

333
00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:13.039
<v Speaker 1>on strike from I am the International Association of Machinists

334
00:21:13.039 --> 00:21:16.680
<v Speaker 1>and Aerospace Workers. They need more any more letters in

335
00:21:16.720 --> 00:21:21.680
<v Speaker 1>their acronym, I think. But it's still like the the

336
00:21:21.920 --> 00:21:26.279
<v Speaker 1>The union's on one track, which and Boeing's on another track.

337
00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:30.319
<v Speaker 1>Boeing is on a track of a company that's that's

338
00:21:30.680 --> 00:21:36.039
<v Speaker 1>in a downturn and headed probably for disaster, almost like

339
00:21:36.079 --> 00:21:40.480
<v Speaker 1>a thing, almost like a thing that's in the sky

340
00:21:40.519 --> 00:21:44.519
<v Speaker 1>flying high, but then but then it starts like it

341
00:21:44.599 --> 00:21:48.480
<v Speaker 1>starts to drop and drop and drop, and then at

342
00:21:48.480 --> 00:21:52.119
<v Speaker 1>the end of that it it crashes and is destroyed.

343
00:21:52.240 --> 00:21:57.680
<v Speaker 1>It's almost like that. You and the union seems to

344
00:21:57.720 --> 00:22:01.079
<v Speaker 1>be talking like and I'm I'm I'm still on the

345
00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:04.000
<v Speaker 1>side of the union, but they seem to be talking

346
00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:07.680
<v Speaker 1>like they're working for a company that's on the up

347
00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:11.640
<v Speaker 1>and up whose future looks bright. I'm not so sure

348
00:22:11.640 --> 00:22:16.000
<v Speaker 1>that that's true. But in any event, let's see if

349
00:22:16.359 --> 00:22:21.160
<v Speaker 1>Acting Labor Secretary Julie Sue can bring these parties closer together.

350
00:22:21.240 --> 00:22:23.759
<v Speaker 1>You know, the FEDS got involved with the dock workers'

351
00:22:23.759 --> 00:22:28.839
<v Speaker 1>strike and shortly thereafter they had a resolution, or at

352
00:22:28.880 --> 00:22:30.799
<v Speaker 1>least they had an agreement to go back to work

353
00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:34.440
<v Speaker 1>while a new contract was put together. So maybe it'll

354
00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:35.039
<v Speaker 1>be effective.

355
00:22:38.079 --> 00:22:41.559
<v Speaker 4>FEMA workers coming under fire. A man in North Carolina

356
00:22:41.559 --> 00:22:46.079
<v Speaker 4>it's been arrested for allegedly threatening harm against FEMA employees

357
00:22:46.640 --> 00:22:53.519
<v Speaker 4>responding to Hurricane Helene. Captain Jamie Keever with the Rutherford

358
00:22:53.519 --> 00:22:57.160
<v Speaker 4>County Sheriff's Office said that William Parsons was armed with

359
00:22:57.200 --> 00:23:00.799
<v Speaker 4>a handgun and a knife. He's been charged with a misdemeanor.

360
00:23:01.400 --> 00:23:04.079
<v Speaker 4>Parsons was arrested in his car outside a grocery store

361
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:06.680
<v Speaker 4>that is functioning as a storm relief site.

362
00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:11.759
<v Speaker 1>I heard that they're actually not just this guy threatening

363
00:23:12.599 --> 00:23:15.920
<v Speaker 1>while also having weapons, but that they're groups of people

364
00:23:16.599 --> 00:23:21.559
<v Speaker 1>going around saying they're hunting for FEMA workers, which is

365
00:23:21.599 --> 00:23:24.680
<v Speaker 1>why FEMA told them to get out and stop operations.

366
00:23:24.720 --> 00:23:27.960
<v Speaker 1>Not just stop operations, stop operations and leave the area.

367
00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:32.079
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how much confirmation there's been, but I mean,

368
00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:37.039
<v Speaker 1>you know, the rumor is circulating that there are groups

369
00:23:37.079 --> 00:23:40.240
<v Speaker 1>of people saying we're out hunting for FEMA workers.

370
00:23:40.440 --> 00:23:46.119
<v Speaker 2>Well, deep enough rumors or at least possible actualities there

371
00:23:46.160 --> 00:23:48.519
<v Speaker 2>that FEMA said, Okay, we're going to pull out. I

372
00:23:48.519 --> 00:23:51.400
<v Speaker 2>don't know that they do that unless they thought there's

373
00:23:51.400 --> 00:23:53.799
<v Speaker 2>some sort of danger, which is scary as hell.

374
00:23:54.799 --> 00:23:58.839
<v Speaker 4>Well, right, they have resumed their door to door operations

375
00:23:58.839 --> 00:23:59.920
<v Speaker 4>though they just paused them.

376
00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:02.400
<v Speaker 1>Okay, now they're back at it. That's good.

377
00:24:03.200 --> 00:24:08.160
<v Speaker 2>With guns and flak jackets everything else. No, that's just me.

378
00:24:08.799 --> 00:24:13.359
<v Speaker 2>Vice President Kamala Harris, vice president slash current president. No,

379
00:24:13.599 --> 00:24:16.359
<v Speaker 2>that's too much. Vice President Kamala Harris has agreed to

380
00:24:16.400 --> 00:24:20.279
<v Speaker 2>sit down and for an interview with Fox News. Brett

381
00:24:20.279 --> 00:24:24.720
<v Speaker 2>Bear is they announced on Monday, and they're gonna tape

382
00:24:24.720 --> 00:24:28.839
<v Speaker 2>it in Pennsylvania and me twenty five thirty minutes of

383
00:24:28.960 --> 00:24:33.279
<v Speaker 2>questions scheduled to air October sixteenth at six pm Eastern

384
00:24:33.359 --> 00:24:36.119
<v Speaker 2>time for special report with Brett Bar.

385
00:24:36.319 --> 00:24:37.519
<v Speaker 3>That's three pm our time.

386
00:24:38.000 --> 00:24:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so I don't know when are they gonna have

387
00:24:40.559 --> 00:24:41.759
<v Speaker 2>time to edit it?

388
00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:45.519
<v Speaker 1>And no, oh and make her look bad?

389
00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:45.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

390
00:24:46.039 --> 00:24:46.920
<v Speaker 1>Is that what you're implying?

391
00:24:47.240 --> 00:24:53.440
<v Speaker 2>Well? To make her look good? I mean, why not? So?

392
00:24:53.759 --> 00:24:57.720
<v Speaker 1>Now? Will Will? Former President Trump agreed to do an

393
00:24:57.759 --> 00:24:59.039
<v Speaker 1>interview with Rachel Maddow.

394
00:25:01.559 --> 00:25:04.960
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. He's interviewed with pretty much everybody though.

395
00:25:05.039 --> 00:25:05.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

396
00:25:05.319 --> 00:25:08.519
<v Speaker 2>I think at this point any any outlet he goes

397
00:25:08.599 --> 00:25:09.119
<v Speaker 2>on is a.

398
00:25:09.119 --> 00:25:13.720
<v Speaker 1>Hostile except for that is that is like Maria Bartiromo

399
00:25:13.880 --> 00:25:18.119
<v Speaker 1>really really gave him a hard time, which she wouldn't

400
00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:20.319
<v Speaker 1>at like two years ago, you would she would not

401
00:25:20.400 --> 00:25:22.920
<v Speaker 1>have given him a hard time at all. No, And

402
00:25:22.960 --> 00:25:25.400
<v Speaker 1>also I don't think Brett Bear, Brett Bear is not

403
00:25:26.920 --> 00:25:32.599
<v Speaker 1>one of these you know, super extreme hostile guys, is he?

404
00:25:33.519 --> 00:25:34.640
<v Speaker 3>I don't think so.

405
00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:36.480
<v Speaker 1>So I don't know, it's gonna be a lot of fire.

406
00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:39.400
<v Speaker 1>And also, look, I don't think he's like that. I

407
00:25:39.440 --> 00:25:42.920
<v Speaker 1>think he's much more a responsible journalist than he is

408
00:25:43.559 --> 00:25:49.000
<v Speaker 1>some partisan firebrand. And also, Kamala Harris can probably handle anything,

409
00:25:49.119 --> 00:25:52.799
<v Speaker 1>unless he's like arm wrestle me right now to prove

410
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:55.839
<v Speaker 1>your fit to be president. I think she can handle anything. Well,

411
00:25:56.759 --> 00:25:58.200
<v Speaker 1>now I think about it, she might be able to

412
00:25:58.240 --> 00:26:02.880
<v Speaker 1>beat him in arm wrestling too. I don't know. I'm

413
00:26:02.920 --> 00:26:04.960
<v Speaker 1>not prepared to say she couldn't beat Brett Baar in

414
00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:08.680
<v Speaker 1>an arm wrestling contest. She never shows her arms. She

415
00:26:08.759 --> 00:26:11.519
<v Speaker 1>always she's always wearing sleeves. We don't even know. She

416
00:26:11.599 --> 00:26:14.559
<v Speaker 1>might be buff under there. She might have some guns, yeah,

417
00:26:14.559 --> 00:26:16.279
<v Speaker 1>she might. Well, she has some guns.

418
00:26:16.480 --> 00:26:19.559
<v Speaker 3>Yes, she has at least one, right, she might have others.

419
00:26:20.519 --> 00:26:22.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, I just ran a marathon. What were you saying?

420
00:26:24.440 --> 00:26:26.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh you know what, I can't repeat it. I have

421
00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:27.200
<v Speaker 1>to go run a marathon.

422
00:26:27.519 --> 00:26:30.559
<v Speaker 2>Oh my gosh, I've been running marathons all day.

423
00:26:30.960 --> 00:26:32.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm running a marathon right now.

424
00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:36.160
<v Speaker 2>You know what. I was running a marathon while I

425
00:26:36.359 --> 00:26:38.799
<v Speaker 2>was having a sit down, not but five minutes ago.

426
00:26:39.440 --> 00:26:41.440
<v Speaker 1>Oh, that's one of the best times to run a marathon.

427
00:26:41.799 --> 00:26:43.119
<v Speaker 2>Yep, yeah, me.

428
00:26:43.200 --> 00:26:44.920
<v Speaker 1>How many marathons have you run today?

429
00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:48.720
<v Speaker 3>M none? But I did do a ten k last month.

430
00:26:49.559 --> 00:26:52.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh well, don't talk about it. I see.

431
00:26:53.359 --> 00:26:55.480
<v Speaker 4>I'm always saying that because I've never done that before.

432
00:26:55.519 --> 00:26:57.480
<v Speaker 4>It was sort of a big deal for me to

433
00:26:57.559 --> 00:27:03.000
<v Speaker 4>run a ten k. I didn't run it said, I

434
00:27:03.039 --> 00:27:03.920
<v Speaker 4>did a ten k.

435
00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:08.759
<v Speaker 2>So last week you walked a lot. Well, then I

436
00:27:08.839 --> 00:27:12.599
<v Speaker 2>did a ten k two over the past three months.

437
00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:15.480
<v Speaker 3>Yes, anytime you go to Disneyland you do at least.

438
00:27:15.680 --> 00:27:17.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. All right.

439
00:27:17.200 --> 00:27:21.279
<v Speaker 1>It's KFIM six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app,

440
00:27:21.359 --> 00:27:24.119
<v Speaker 1>So tune us in while you're running those marathons. It's

441
00:27:24.160 --> 00:27:27.720
<v Speaker 1>the Bill Handle Show. He's on vacation, Wayne resnik here

442
00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:30.079
<v Speaker 1>till nine, Neil is here, Amy is here. We're doing

443
00:27:30.119 --> 00:27:35.000
<v Speaker 1>for you. Handle on the news. And Starbucks is scaling

444
00:27:35.119 --> 00:27:40.519
<v Speaker 1>back their special deals and promotional offers. It is a

445
00:27:40.599 --> 00:27:44.759
<v Speaker 1>move by the new CEO, Brian Nickel to reposition Starbucks.

446
00:27:44.799 --> 00:27:46.960
<v Speaker 1>Here's two things he wants to accomplish with this. One,

447
00:27:47.960 --> 00:27:52.720
<v Speaker 1>Let's make Starbucks a premium brand again, because when I

448
00:27:52.839 --> 00:28:00.559
<v Speaker 1>think high end coffee, I don't think of Starbucks. And also,

449
00:28:01.640 --> 00:28:03.680
<v Speaker 1>The other thing is when they do these big deals,

450
00:28:03.720 --> 00:28:05.960
<v Speaker 1>because they they would do buy one, get one free

451
00:28:06.039 --> 00:28:09.000
<v Speaker 1>or fifty percent off deals and they would get slammed.

452
00:28:09.160 --> 00:28:12.960
<v Speaker 1>And guess who gets slammed. The parists gets slammed, not

453
00:28:13.039 --> 00:28:16.200
<v Speaker 1>just with the increase in orders because people are cheap,

454
00:28:18.160 --> 00:28:22.200
<v Speaker 1>but also because with the special requests all the time.

455
00:28:23.480 --> 00:28:25.960
<v Speaker 1>And so he's trying to address both of those problems,

456
00:28:25.960 --> 00:28:27.720
<v Speaker 1>and he basically it sounds like what he wants to

457
00:28:27.759 --> 00:28:31.079
<v Speaker 1>do is return Starbucks to its roots as a community

458
00:28:31.119 --> 00:28:33.759
<v Speaker 1>coffee house where you go and you stay there and

459
00:28:33.799 --> 00:28:37.359
<v Speaker 1>you hang out in comfortable seats, rather than a place

460
00:28:37.400 --> 00:28:39.880
<v Speaker 1>where you get on an app and you order two

461
00:28:39.920 --> 00:28:43.160
<v Speaker 1>for one frappuccinos and go and pick it up and

462
00:28:43.160 --> 00:28:43.839
<v Speaker 1>get the hell out.

463
00:28:44.240 --> 00:28:49.440
<v Speaker 2>He really wants a homeless people now in there. So

464
00:28:49.480 --> 00:28:53.200
<v Speaker 2>the community has changed rapidly pass.

465
00:28:53.079 --> 00:28:56.039
<v Speaker 1>And they're losing They've lost business. Their sales are down

466
00:28:56.200 --> 00:28:57.799
<v Speaker 1>for two straight quarters.

467
00:28:57.839 --> 00:29:03.000
<v Speaker 2>Because you can get great coffee everywhere now, yeah I can.

468
00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:06.880
<v Speaker 2>I can throw a rock in my neighborhood and hit

469
00:29:07.240 --> 00:29:12.480
<v Speaker 2>ten fantastic, world class coffeehouses.

470
00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:15.799
<v Speaker 1>Well, to be to be fair, you live in Hipsterville,

471
00:29:16.160 --> 00:29:18.759
<v Speaker 1>so of course you have right. How far are you

472
00:29:18.799 --> 00:29:22.920
<v Speaker 1>from that intelligentsia on sunset. You want me to give

473
00:29:22.920 --> 00:29:25.279
<v Speaker 1>you a map of my house? No, I just said house.

474
00:29:26.680 --> 00:29:29.200
<v Speaker 1>Put it this way. Would you would you walk there?

475
00:29:29.279 --> 00:29:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Or would you feel like it's too far to walk?

476
00:29:31.440 --> 00:29:33.640
<v Speaker 2>I would take my helicopter like a normal person.

477
00:29:33.720 --> 00:29:34.200
<v Speaker 1>All right.

478
00:29:35.440 --> 00:29:41.880
<v Speaker 2>You like the marathon that I just ran, And if.

479
00:29:39.960 --> 00:29:42.720
<v Speaker 1>You like the deals in the app from Starbucks, there

480
00:29:42.759 --> 00:29:49.680
<v Speaker 1>will be fewer of them and they will be further between. Oh, baseball.

481
00:29:49.720 --> 00:29:53.839
<v Speaker 4>In the news, Clayton Kershaw's got the blues, the Dodger Blue.

482
00:29:54.279 --> 00:29:56.839
<v Speaker 4>He has announced that he plans to return to the

483
00:29:56.839 --> 00:29:58.599
<v Speaker 4>Dodgers for his eighteenth season.

484
00:29:59.200 --> 00:30:05.440
<v Speaker 3>I haven't seen a lot this season. He was He had.

485
00:30:05.039 --> 00:30:09.720
<v Speaker 4>Shoulder surgery that kept him out until July twenty fifth,

486
00:30:09.759 --> 00:30:11.240
<v Speaker 4>and then he came back, and then he got a

487
00:30:11.240 --> 00:30:13.400
<v Speaker 4>bone spur in his left toe, so he sidelined again.

488
00:30:13.960 --> 00:30:16.799
<v Speaker 4>He only pitched like five seven games this year.

489
00:30:17.799 --> 00:30:21.079
<v Speaker 1>All right, But hopefully next year, hopefully his eighteenth season

490
00:30:21.119 --> 00:30:22.720
<v Speaker 1>will be chock full of games.

491
00:30:22.920 --> 00:30:26.680
<v Speaker 4>He's iconic. I'm thrilled at Kirk Show's coming. Yeah, he's

492
00:30:26.720 --> 00:30:35.759
<v Speaker 4>all right. He's okay, ball thrower, Wow, sports talk.

493
00:30:36.720 --> 00:30:38.920
<v Speaker 2>He likes to get the w.

494
00:30:40.960 --> 00:30:46.799
<v Speaker 1>Yes, he's competent. He's competent and taking a ball in

495
00:30:46.880 --> 00:30:49.960
<v Speaker 1>his hand and making it go away from his body

496
00:30:50.440 --> 00:30:52.720
<v Speaker 1>toward another guy who's waiting to catch.

497
00:30:52.519 --> 00:30:56.599
<v Speaker 2>It, thrust in speed. Good for him, he seems like

498
00:30:56.640 --> 00:31:00.680
<v Speaker 2>a nice guy. All right. This is a horrible, horrible story,

499
00:31:00.680 --> 00:31:03.480
<v Speaker 2>and you've got to wonder how the hell this came down.

500
00:31:03.680 --> 00:31:09.519
<v Speaker 2>Bizarre bizarre, grizzly crime. Popular hiking trail in San Gabriel Mountains.

501
00:31:09.960 --> 00:31:13.079
<v Speaker 2>Nineteen year old man reportedly stabbed his father to death.

502
00:31:13.920 --> 00:31:17.960
<v Speaker 2>So the victim here has been identified as well known,

503
00:31:18.440 --> 00:31:22.680
<v Speaker 2>award winning war photographer, photojournalist and a professor at the

504
00:31:22.759 --> 00:31:26.920
<v Speaker 2>University of the Arts in London, sixty one year old

505
00:31:27.039 --> 00:31:30.519
<v Speaker 2>Paul Lowe, and he was found dead at the scene

506
00:31:31.079 --> 00:31:33.759
<v Speaker 2>a mere low His nineteen year old son has been

507
00:31:33.799 --> 00:31:42.240
<v Speaker 2>identified as the on suspicion suspicion of murder. The county

508
00:31:42.559 --> 00:31:46.119
<v Speaker 2>Medical Examiner says the cause of death was stab wounds

509
00:31:46.160 --> 00:31:46.799
<v Speaker 2>in the neck.

510
00:31:49.480 --> 00:31:53.200
<v Speaker 1>The bizarre twist here is that the victim his father,

511
00:31:53.839 --> 00:31:57.400
<v Speaker 1>was a war photojournalist. The idea being he was in

512
00:31:57.480 --> 00:32:02.559
<v Speaker 1>all kinds of super dangerous place is and came out fine,

513
00:32:02.799 --> 00:32:05.319
<v Speaker 1>and then you know his own son.

514
00:32:06.839 --> 00:32:10.720
<v Speaker 2>And it's just straight up mental illness, or if there's

515
00:32:10.839 --> 00:32:15.759
<v Speaker 2>some backstory. Yeah, I don't know, nothing to justify it,

516
00:32:15.839 --> 00:32:17.880
<v Speaker 2>just yeah, curiosity.

517
00:32:18.480 --> 00:32:21.200
<v Speaker 1>True Value. When I say to you the two words

518
00:32:21.240 --> 00:32:26.640
<v Speaker 1>true value, what do you think of? I hope it's hardware, Yeah,

519
00:32:26.759 --> 00:32:32.079
<v Speaker 1>the True value hardware stores. Well, True Value has declared

520
00:32:32.240 --> 00:32:37.119
<v Speaker 1>bankruptcy and they're going to sell itself to a rival,

521
00:32:37.319 --> 00:32:40.519
<v Speaker 1>the Do It Best. But here's the thing this is,

522
00:32:40.680 --> 00:32:43.759
<v Speaker 1>this is I don't know if it's weird, but you

523
00:32:43.839 --> 00:32:48.079
<v Speaker 1>have all the True Value stores everywhere. They're not part

524
00:32:48.119 --> 00:32:52.319
<v Speaker 1>of this bankruptcy. Nothing's happening to them. It's True Value,

525
00:32:53.400 --> 00:32:59.839
<v Speaker 1>the wholesaler that sells all of this hardware stuff to

526
00:33:00.200 --> 00:33:05.319
<v Speaker 1>the stores. That's what's going bankrupt. And Do it Best

527
00:33:05.920 --> 00:33:11.559
<v Speaker 1>also has this big, you know, wholesale component to it.

528
00:33:12.480 --> 00:33:15.559
<v Speaker 1>So I think what will happen is some of these

529
00:33:15.559 --> 00:33:21.279
<v Speaker 1>True Value stores may become rebranded and they won't be

530
00:33:21.319 --> 00:33:26.400
<v Speaker 1>getting their saws from True Value. I don't think True

531
00:33:26.480 --> 00:33:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Value is even really technically a parent company of the stores.

532
00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:35.319
<v Speaker 1>It's like two businesses using the trade name True Value.

533
00:33:35.400 --> 00:33:38.400
<v Speaker 1>A series of independently owned stores, and then a big

534
00:33:38.440 --> 00:33:43.519
<v Speaker 1>company that sells the products that those stores sell to you.

535
00:33:44.359 --> 00:33:47.480
<v Speaker 1>But in any event, the main thing is it's a bankruptcy,

536
00:33:48.000 --> 00:33:52.119
<v Speaker 1>and then do it best has filed what they call

537
00:33:52.200 --> 00:33:59.279
<v Speaker 1>a stocking horse bid. You know what that is. So

538
00:33:59.319 --> 00:34:02.359
<v Speaker 1>here's what happens. So you you've you've declared bankruptcy, and

539
00:34:02.400 --> 00:34:06.079
<v Speaker 1>then before before anybody can get into like bidding for

540
00:34:06.119 --> 00:34:09.119
<v Speaker 1>you or whatever, a company can do what's called a

541
00:34:09.159 --> 00:34:12.960
<v Speaker 1>stalking horse bid right out of the gate premature basically,

542
00:34:14.280 --> 00:34:18.039
<v Speaker 1>and then what that means is nobody can bid less.

543
00:34:18.679 --> 00:34:25.440
<v Speaker 1>It sets a floor for what you're gonna get, and

544
00:34:25.480 --> 00:34:27.480
<v Speaker 1>that's what do it best at one hundred and fifty

545
00:34:27.519 --> 00:34:32.559
<v Speaker 1>three million dollars. So that's why True Value is already

546
00:34:32.559 --> 00:34:34.760
<v Speaker 1>saying we're just gonna we're just gonna sell to do

547
00:34:34.800 --> 00:34:36.800
<v Speaker 1>it best for one hundred and fifty three million dollars,

548
00:34:38.159 --> 00:34:41.000
<v Speaker 1>shut it down. At least they'll have the supplies necessary

549
00:34:41.159 --> 00:34:44.039
<v Speaker 1>to board up the windows and everything at headquarters.

550
00:34:45.039 --> 00:34:46.159
<v Speaker 2>Well else are you gonna sell it to?

551
00:34:46.559 --> 00:34:49.599
<v Speaker 1>They do it well, there's d it center, there's a

552
00:34:49.679 --> 00:34:51.360
<v Speaker 1>home depot or lows.

553
00:34:51.800 --> 00:34:58.159
<v Speaker 2>They don't do it best? Why go through with you

554
00:34:58.159 --> 00:35:03.159
<v Speaker 2>already know where you're going do it best? All right?

555
00:35:03.239 --> 00:35:06.880
<v Speaker 1>That is handle on the news when we come back

556
00:35:07.119 --> 00:35:11.519
<v Speaker 1>Governor Newsom did sign the Gasoline Bill, designed to lower

557
00:35:11.679 --> 00:35:14.000
<v Speaker 1>the price of a gallon of gas in California and

558
00:35:14.079 --> 00:35:19.440
<v Speaker 1>prevent you from experience those price spikes. We talked about

559
00:35:19.440 --> 00:35:20.920
<v Speaker 1>some of the people who don't like it and why

560
00:35:20.920 --> 00:35:22.840
<v Speaker 1>they don't like it yesterday. Now there's a new group

561
00:35:22.880 --> 00:35:25.000
<v Speaker 1>of people who have come out to say we don't

562
00:35:25.079 --> 00:35:28.039
<v Speaker 1>like it either for our own reasons, and we'll talk

563
00:35:28.039 --> 00:35:31.159
<v Speaker 1>about them. It's KFI AM six forty live everywhere on

564
00:35:31.199 --> 00:35:32.840
<v Speaker 1>the iHeartRadio app
