Speaker 2: six forty dot com forward slash pastathon for our auction items,

Speaker 2: She had her own segment and she turned that into
Speaker 2: her own show. Put your Hands Together for Tiffany Hops.
Speaker 4: Thank you, Thank you all very much. I do appreciate it.
Speaker 4: This is my second pastathon and I love it.
Speaker 5: I really enjoy being here.
Speaker 4: It is my first time actually eating food here at
Speaker 4: pasta thon.
Speaker 2: Ooh, how was it? I know it was good.
Speaker 4: I ate something I couldn't pronounce and it was delicious.
Speaker 2: Oh that's the best kind of food. People ask you,
Speaker 2: what did you eat is? I don't know, but it
Speaker 2: tasted it good.
Speaker 4: We just kind of pointed and said, give me that.
Speaker 4: That description looks really good, and it was. Everything here
Speaker 4: that I've had has been wonderful. The people, the staff,
Speaker 4: Bruno and just the entire environment is. I see why
Speaker 4: everyone comes out and why it's such a huge event
Speaker 4: year after year.
Speaker 2: You kind of took my next question, but I'm going
Speaker 2: to ask it anyway. You have a very particular perspective.
Speaker 2: You first could look at this from the outside end.
Speaker 2: You could listen to Pastathon, you could listen to KFI.
Speaker 2: You might have even come down. But that's one perspective. Yes,
Speaker 2: now to see popon from the inside, KFI, working with
Speaker 2: Smart and Final, working with Wendy's having a role to
Speaker 2: play on air with it as well. What's it seem like?
Speaker 2: What's it feel like?
Speaker 3: Now? Oh? It is.
Speaker 5: It's magic.
Speaker 4: It's magic, but that magic is very deliberate, is very intentional.
Speaker 4: Michelle and what she does year after year should be
Speaker 4: celebrated beyond.
Speaker 5: The pale it is.
Speaker 4: I can't imagine the amount of work it takes to
Speaker 4: put something like this on and the fact that again
Speaker 4: it's been fourteen years, and that it just grows with
Speaker 4: each year. And magic is probably the best word. We
Speaker 4: don't understand magic, but if you are lucky, you believe
Speaker 4: in it. And I see why people invest so much
Speaker 4: in this event.
Speaker 5: It's heartwarming.
Speaker 4: It really moves you to hear the stories from the
Speaker 4: youth who are a part of the program and have
Speaker 4: been under Bruno Serrado's tutelage. To hear Bruno talk about
Speaker 4: Katerina's club and his mother, and just to see people
Speaker 4: here really appreciating and supporting, it's it's very moving.
Speaker 2: There's been a lot of discussion about the decline of
Speaker 2: AM radio quote never but there's been that discussion. But
Speaker 2: it's moments like these where people are reminded the power
Speaker 2: and also the responsibility we have is on their personalities
Speaker 2: with this microphone. Because for all that people want to
Speaker 2: use it for things unimportant, me included, there are these
Speaker 2: moments where the power of AM radio, the power of
Speaker 2: KFI can no exaggeration, change thousands of lives. We have
Speaker 2: eight hundred and nine thousand dollars and eight hundred and
Speaker 2: thirty eight dollars worth of donations in one day basis.
Speaker 5: On one day.
Speaker 2: That's the power of AM radio. That's the power of KFI.
Speaker 2: That is the power of what we've collectively built with pastathon.
Speaker 2: There are thousands and thousands of children who are going
Speaker 2: to be fed. They're going to be any number untold
Speaker 2: numbers of families who are going to be rehoused. Now.
Speaker 2: Chef Bruno is to conduit. He is the centerpiece of
Speaker 2: all this, but we all play a role in this.
Speaker 2: We all play a part. It may be small. Your
Speaker 2: donation may have only been five dollars today, it may
Speaker 2: have been five hundred dollars today. It may have been
Speaker 2: just stopping by and offering a word of support and
Speaker 2: reminding us of what we're doing. That also has its place.
Speaker 2: And I'm just overwhelmed again and in awe at your
Speaker 2: consistent and dependable generosity. You don't have to do it.
Speaker 2: It's one thing to say, hey, we had a great year. No,
Speaker 2: but we're saying we had a great fourteen years and
Speaker 2: we're building on it. And I know that I'm further
Speaker 2: inspired by what you do collectively. I know Michelle is
Speaker 2: inspired by what you do. We have these conversations where
Speaker 2: I don't know how we're going to be able to
Speaker 2: top it next year. Well, we don't know, but somehow
Speaker 2: you make a way, You collectively find a way to
Speaker 2: not only feed children, but amaze us in the process.
Speaker 2: And Tiffany, let me come back to you, because your
Speaker 2: story is very specific. You got to see all this grow.
Speaker 2: You listen to it grow.
Speaker 4: Yeah, listen before Pastathon was a thing. I've been a
Speaker 4: listener since for twenty plus years. And to jump in
Speaker 4: to KFI and see the reach into the community and
Speaker 4: how KFI has changed as a station and continues to
Speaker 4: be so community focused and oriented, just gives me a
Speaker 4: lot of pride in being associated with this station and
Speaker 4: just seeing again what it can do and how it
Speaker 4: can in fact change lives. Like you said, Mo, there
Speaker 4: are children who are now teenagers, who are now adults
Speaker 4: who have gone through this fourteen years and have been
Speaker 4: benefactors of this Pastathon And the fact that you can
Speaker 4: look at people and see change is amazing. It's tangible.
Speaker 4: It's not some figment of your imagination. You don't have
Speaker 4: to it's not obscure, it's not abstract.
Speaker 5: These are people, and you get to see and hear.
Speaker 4: The stories of how this entire operation has changed lives.
Speaker 5: It's really special.
Speaker 2: Now you brought some very special people with you tonight,
Speaker 2: did you I did?
Speaker 5: I did.
Speaker 4: I brought as I did last year, my fiance TJ.
Speaker 4: And my mother is here for her first Pastathon, Miss
Speaker 4: Connie Hobbes. So I'm glad to share this with them.
Speaker 4: I know, my mother is proud to be here. I
Speaker 4: come from a radio lineage. My grandfather was a radio
Speaker 4: broadcaster in Peoria, Illinois, Rannie Bryson. And so to be
Speaker 4: able to share again this with my mother and all
Speaker 4: of you, I am touched beyond belief.
Speaker 2: I want to ask you this, and look at your
Speaker 2: mother when I ask you. Did your mother believe you
Speaker 2: when she when you first told her that you were
Speaker 2: going to be on KFI in a host capacity?
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, oh yeah, there was no doubt. There was ever.
Speaker 4: You know again, if you're fortunate, your parents are your
Speaker 4: first fans and your first cheerleaders.
Speaker 5: And my mother has been that throughout my life.
Speaker 4: So to have her here now to do that just
Speaker 4: as a testament to our relationship and her belief in
Speaker 4: what I do.
Speaker 5: So I want to make her proud.
Speaker 4: I want to do well in this position, and I'm here,
Speaker 4: I'm trying and it's going well. I am on Saturdays
Speaker 4: from five to seven pm.
Speaker 5: Look at that.
Speaker 4: I think that's something to be proud of and to continue. So,
Speaker 4: if you've been listening to the five to seven pm
Speaker 4: show Saturdays with Tiffany, thank you so much for that.
Speaker 4: We're about two and a half months in and it
Speaker 4: feels like it was just yesterday and I'm looking forward
Speaker 4: to much more with the station.
Speaker 2: Well you've heard me say it before and on to
Speaker 2: say it again. Your success is our success. I know it. Well,
Speaker 2: put your hands together for Tiffany Hobbs.
Speaker 5: Thank you guys very much.
Speaker 2: It's Later with Moke Kelly. We're continue to broadcast live.
Speaker 2: You can hear. We have a nice crowd here at
Speaker 2: the Anaheim White House. And don't forget, we still have
Speaker 2: some grand prize giveaway, so if you're in the neighborhood,
Speaker 2: you have to be in the house to win it.
Speaker 2: I'm talking about a family four pack to see Pam
Speaker 2: Tillis and Laurie Morgan as part of the Grits and
Speaker 2: Glamour tour coming up in two days on December fifth
Speaker 2: at Lamarada Theater. We're given that away, a family four pack,
Speaker 2: and also this big ass basket we're given away, this
Speaker 2: holiday gift basket. It can be yours, but you got
Speaker 2: to be in the house, so come on and see us.
Speaker 6: You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
Speaker 6: KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2: We're not done because we cannot leave up out of
Speaker 2: here without speaking to the man of the hour, or
Speaker 2: I should say the man of the day or the
Speaker 2: man of the year, however you want to phrase it.
Speaker 2: Chef Bruno Serrato is good to see you, my friend.
Speaker 3: Always nice to see my friends, so happy you would
Speaker 3: coming tonight, and always cool to see you back in
Speaker 3: our house.
Speaker 2: I'm amazed, but I'm not surprised. You are so consistent
Speaker 2: in your service of children and families. I should not
Speaker 2: be surprised that you were here at five am, and
Speaker 2: you'll be here to at least ten pm. You've been available,
Speaker 2: You've been speaking with people. You've been making sure not
Speaker 2: only that the people here here at the broadcasts are comfortable,
Speaker 2: but you have customers to the restaurant is open, there's
Speaker 2: you know, you're conducting business. I don't know how you
Speaker 2: had the energy to do it.
Speaker 3: A lot of people ask me the same question. I said,
Speaker 3: I have no idea where I come mynd that you
Speaker 3: from me like you say, I was you at five am.
Speaker 3: I have a full restaurant tonight. And then my plority
Speaker 3: is said hi to every customer, said thank you for
Speaker 3: being here in everyth and at the same time, we
Speaker 3: saw the five thousand meals today for the kids.
Speaker 2: How does that work? Because I was saying, I don't
Speaker 2: know how you do it because that is a separate
Speaker 2: operation and corporationto itself. How are you able to manage
Speaker 2: and monitor what is happening in the restaurant as well
Speaker 2: as the kids who are being fair?
Speaker 3: Well? You always to be a good a good ceoor cfl.
Speaker 3: You have to have good people behind you. Yes, I
Speaker 3: have a great people in the kitchen then helping to
Speaker 3: prepare the past us since six o'clock this morning. I
Speaker 3: have a great people back up for the kitchen. I
Speaker 3: have a great driver. We take the buses so Luva
Speaker 3: Race County, which is the big things. And I have
Speaker 3: a great people in office. That I mean, all the
Speaker 3: great people surround me make me look good. I mean honestly,
Speaker 3: we walk out, we talk, we communicate pretty much every day.
Speaker 3: I mean every hour and hour. The restaurant is empty too.
Speaker 3: My nephew Silvanna is my GM and in Catalina too
Speaker 3: is taking care of the restaurant. But I know people
Speaker 3: come to say hi to Mina. I have to be
Speaker 3: here and I to say hi to everybody. And a
Speaker 3: great chef for the restaurant to that mina. I'm surrunning
Speaker 3: with a great amount of people, and that's why I
Speaker 3: can't do what I do. Without them, I could not
Speaker 3: do what I do.
Speaker 2: Caterina's Club has grown, Pastaton has grown. You're not only
Speaker 2: feeding children, but you're rehousing families.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a big deal. The children is I
Speaker 3: means nineteen nineteen years ago. The family is about thirteen
Speaker 3: years ago. I met a family. They live in a
Speaker 3: motel room for twelve years. And when I find that out,
Speaker 3: I know idea motel room family was doing this. I
Speaker 3: was like, well, why are you just living for so long?
Speaker 3: Because you pay? Your motel is not free or not
Speaker 3: even cheese, I said, I said, we have to pay. Yes,
Speaker 3: when we stay here. I would love to move to
Speaker 3: an apartment, but no way, I'm going to save three
Speaker 3: four five thousand dollars down payment. And that was bingo,
Speaker 3: that's the problem. It was the down payment to move
Speaker 3: to an apartment. Now, the first family I moved, like
Speaker 3: I mentioned, living thirteen years in six people and they
Speaker 3: still live there. And a couple of weeks ago we
Speaker 3: moved Family number two hundred and seventy three.
Speaker 2: Two hundred and seventy three families.
Speaker 3: And you change life. I mean I was done in early.
Speaker 3: When you see people move to from a motel area,
Speaker 3: part in loto, garage car to an apartment, that's the
Speaker 3: life change. We have to qualify them. We have to
Speaker 3: have children, because if you have no children, you can't qualify.
Speaker 3: I do for the safety of the kids. And you
Speaker 3: have to have a job because you need to pay
Speaker 3: your rent, have to pay the deposit, and no drugs
Speaker 3: or art and stuff like that. I mean, when you
Speaker 3: move them and you hear people detect in you and say,
Speaker 3: she will thank you. My kids was the worst at
Speaker 3: school and this morney came home and it's a student
Speaker 3: of the month. When you hear stories and like young
Speaker 3: girls don't have any friends because I'm embarrassed to live
Speaker 3: to have my friends and a motel room. And now
Speaker 3: that you move them out and she say, oh, I
Speaker 3: have a lot of friends. I mean, you hear a
Speaker 3: story like this then, which is very touchy in your heart,
Speaker 3: then the life changing that you do. And I give
Speaker 3: dignity back to the parents because if your father or
Speaker 3: your mother and you have your children live in a
Speaker 3: parking lot and a garage in a motel room and
Speaker 3: your kids does homework sit on the toilet because it's
Speaker 3: only cheaper quite as place to sit on it. Yes,
Speaker 3: and you move there to an apartments. Life change emotionally, academically, mentally,
Speaker 3: as completely a life change, Like I mentioned the dignity
Speaker 3: of the parents, because the parents, you want to give
Speaker 3: your kids the best thing responsible. You don't have to
Speaker 3: give view a million dollar car, but at least a
Speaker 3: decent home. Home is home. Home is the base of
Speaker 3: the family. Family is the base of a home. I
Speaker 3: mean when you have a house, then you can have
Speaker 3: your children grow up with mom and dad, or I
Speaker 3: mean if you single parents, is a life changing When
Speaker 3: you don't do that, or you live in a motel room,
Speaker 3: I can't even imagine the parents' mind can't give to
Speaker 3: their own children what they deserve. Has to be very
Speaker 3: tough for the parents.
Speaker 2: It's one thing to want to help someone, and it's
Speaker 2: another thing to have some semblance of resources to help someone.
Speaker 2: But how did you go about making these steps? Even
Speaker 2: if baby steps? You know, you don't start out feeding
Speaker 2: twenty five thousand kids a week.
Speaker 3: Yeah, start with one kid, one location at one boys
Speaker 3: Girls club. One Apule eighteen, two thousand and five, four
Speaker 3: to five o'clock PM. That said the first one, Mom
Speaker 3: say the kid live in a motel. Then why don't
Speaker 3: you feel in pasta? Some put things like, what don't
Speaker 3: you feel in pasta? It's cheap, it's not expensive to
Speaker 3: that one, two, three, five ten, one hundred, two hundred.
Speaker 3: I think when we start with pasta tone there was
Speaker 3: probably three hundred meals a day. We got to five
Speaker 3: thousand meals of the day because every time people hear
Speaker 3: about me all on a radio or with friends. Oh,
Speaker 3: SHO would like to feed children. We need some here,
Speaker 3: we need some there. Now we are in tourist city
Speaker 3: in osht County, Tory, one thing and one hundred in
Speaker 3: three location in the wash Cany know that is how
Speaker 3: the pasta came.
Speaker 2: When I talked to you last year, wasn't there discussion
Speaker 2: of others trying to use your uh blueprint internationally?
Speaker 3: Oh? I love that? In fact one or a friend
Speaker 3: of mine, I never met him. My considers because he
Speaker 3: did the first Caterinas program in Texas and from there
Speaker 3: he will start to travel internationally. You don't filip in
Speaker 3: it Nepal. A couple of days ago, he said India
Speaker 3: and Pakistan because he saw me on CNN eleven years ago.
Speaker 3: And I know the people are done in Ethiopia, other
Speaker 3: people are done in Oklahoma, Texas, Chicago, New York, Mexico, Italy.
Speaker 3: That just because they see me, or they talk to me,
Speaker 3: or they hurt me on media and stuff like that.
Speaker 3: I mean, I keep saying it's a spread of love,
Speaker 3: a spread of kindness went internationally.
Speaker 2: How does that impact you when you see your work
Speaker 2: come back to you in that way. It's one thing
Speaker 2: when you feel the child, the child grows up and
Speaker 2: comes back and says thank you. But when you have
Speaker 2: people who've seen you and then want to share your
Speaker 2: gift with the world and the world comes back to you,
Speaker 2: how does that make you feel?
Speaker 3: Honestly, I don't even understand this day big the impact
Speaker 3: that don't. I'm just Bruno do what I do and
Speaker 3: know people as follow me do it what I do,
Speaker 3: and I love it and reopen my heart to the
Speaker 3: fact and a million children get feed beside ouse just
Speaker 3: because they saw me. And but I am no ego.
Speaker 3: I'm down to health and I feel like kindness is
Speaker 3: like maybe it's my mission from God to be here
Speaker 3: and do people who follow me too. I'm not just
Speaker 3: saying it. I'm not a god, but I'm just like,
Speaker 3: it's beautiful to see people off a shot and can
Speaker 3: feed that many cases. Why can I fit ten twenty
Speaker 3: of them? I just say start with one. I start
Speaker 3: with one. I did start with one. I never start
Speaker 3: with five thousand meals and from one meal then I start.
Speaker 3: Here we are today and this year when we celebrate
Speaker 3: the ten million meals, is like ten millions already and
Speaker 3: we're going to be close to eleven million because we
Speaker 3: saw so many weekly. It's a there's a great impact
Speaker 3: around the world. And we all know you look at
Speaker 3: the TV every t and is a lot of nues,
Speaker 3: A lot. I mean when people look at me or
Speaker 3: listen to us on the radio because K five is
Speaker 3: my family, K five is Caterina's family. K five is
Speaker 3: part of us for so many years. K five will
Speaker 3: give us over fifty percent of the budget for what
Speaker 3: they do. That I mean the importance of K five
Speaker 3: and not just Bullo as everybody like you and everybody
Speaker 3: was there all day today. All the people listen to
Speaker 3: the program, all the people don'tate it online. They're the
Speaker 3: one who should be proud to know them. Brunus off
Speaker 3: ten million meal because it thanks to them that we've
Speaker 3: done that.
Speaker 2: Jefer can't get you to hang around for one more
Speaker 2: seven because I would love to talk about your hospitality academy.
Speaker 3: Definitely, I'm here, all right, Yeah.
Speaker 2: You're not going anywhere. You live here, Chef Bruno more
Speaker 2: with him in just a moment.
Speaker 6: You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
Speaker 6: KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2: We still have the party going here at the Anaheim
Speaker 2: White House on this occasion, the fourteenth Annual CAFI Pastathon.
Speaker 2: Just want to let you know you have about maybe
Speaker 2: seven minutes to put in your final bid at KFIAM
Speaker 2: six forty dot com forward slash Pastathon for the gift
Speaker 2: or the experience of your choice. You have about seven minutes.
Speaker 2: And when I hear there is a bidding war right
Speaker 2: now for the co hosting slot with Lady with Moe Kelly,
Speaker 2: I hear that's going on right now. That's all I'm
Speaker 2: gonna say. But the minutes are ticking away. Your last opportunity.
Speaker 2: And also I want to have a little bit more
Speaker 2: conversation with Chef Bruno Serrato, who continues to join me.
Speaker 2: Chef Bruno, you have your hospitality Academy, which is something
Speaker 2: else that you are devoted to helping those who are
Speaker 2: going to be working in this industry long after all
Speaker 2: of us are gone. What inspired you to also put
Speaker 2: your hands in that well?
Speaker 3: I was fourteen years old when I start to washing dishes,
Speaker 3: walk in a restaurant business and boys girls club kids
Speaker 3: when the teenager they cannot go back there. I mean,
Speaker 3: what's the best way else to teach a kid to
Speaker 3: do something? Teach them at work. And if you start
Speaker 3: when you're young, when you're an adult, you won't be
Speaker 3: working to walk, that's right. And I start to do
Speaker 3: hospitality at a restaurant. Some kids walk in the back
Speaker 3: in the kitchen, some in the dining room with my customer,
Speaker 3: and obviously they're not professional, but my customer knows what
Speaker 3: they do. Even if they make mistakes, they don't worry.
Speaker 3: But when you work for me with me for three months,
Speaker 3: after that, you can have a job anywhere you want
Speaker 3: them bestically teaching them then learn something. You can find
Speaker 3: a job tomorrow in an Hia your ady hotel that
Speaker 3: I mean, can you hear the fireworks? That's because you're
Speaker 3: hanging the show soon you see this.
Speaker 2: I hope that was fireworks from a different neighborhood. Is
Speaker 2: that fireworks something else?
Speaker 3: Ninety fireworks.
Speaker 7: Like?
Speaker 3: But yeah, you teach teenager to walk at a younger age,
Speaker 3: like I mentioned, when they get more adults, they will
Speaker 3: look for a job in the restaurant business is an
Speaker 3: easy job to learn and make money fast. I mean
Speaker 3: some of our kids make like four hundred.
Speaker 2: Dollars a month and that's nothing to sneeze at.
Speaker 3: Leamy at a young age like they are sixteen. Yes,
Speaker 3: it's a big deal. I mean I never mix six
Speaker 3: four hundred a month and sixteen years old. And some
Speaker 3: of them graduated from US, but a few of them
Speaker 3: got hired by me, by management anyway, because they are good.
Speaker 3: After the young girl, she was on the radio early,
Speaker 3: she's very good. Most probably when she finished here most training,
Speaker 3: she could get hired here. I have a few kids
Speaker 3: who graduate way that the CIA Anapa Valley Culinary Institute
Speaker 3: of America and did not do that. They did. They
Speaker 3: did that, and I'm so proud of them because I'm
Speaker 3: sure the philosophy is to look a job in the
Speaker 3: hospitality in the restaurant industry and graduate a CIA with
Speaker 3: talent you cast school is use, use accomplishment. And when
Speaker 3: you see that from your own I called kids because
Speaker 3: I feel like that my kids that's walking with you
Speaker 3: three months you will just put to the bread at
Speaker 3: the butt of the water and on the kitchen pil potatoes.
Speaker 2: Detail.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I love it. I mean you can't see
Speaker 3: that the passion at the beginning, they kind of like
Speaker 3: tell me the shy they don't know that. The only
Speaker 3: you can tell you that I don't look at them
Speaker 3: too much. We don't want to scare them because usually
Speaker 3: a new way to get scared by me when I'm working,
Speaker 3: and I'm work every night. After that they get used
Speaker 3: to and I make the jokes and they love it.
Speaker 2: They really love it. I know someone who's listening, who
Speaker 2: may be thirteen, fourteen, fifteen years old, who may have
Speaker 2: never considered or possibly has already considered doing something like this.
Speaker 2: How can they become part of your hospitality academy.
Speaker 3: They can come to the restaurant. If that young teenager
Speaker 3: I can mentioned, they say, I would like to be
Speaker 3: part of Caterina's Club hospitality program, and we know exactly
Speaker 3: what to do, and we will talking to that because
Speaker 3: when we get usually thirteen kids at the time, some
Speaker 3: of them they drop. Now it's not for me, die
Speaker 3: well too far away. I mean, we always try to
Speaker 3: change and get the new kids on board. But I
Speaker 3: like to have ten twelve kids. I'm not talking and
Speaker 3: they don't work for you. So's a week either, probably
Speaker 3: fifteen hours. The more I get, the more it is better.
Speaker 2: You're feeding kids, you're housing kids and their parents, you
Speaker 2: are training kids, I would say, young adults. I don't
Speaker 2: know how you do it, but I'm glad that you
Speaker 2: do it.
Speaker 3: Do you know why I do that? Because someone told me,
Speaker 3: if I keep doing that, I go to heaven first class.
Speaker 3: I do not want to go coach, Ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 3: Chef Runo Serrata, thank you, my friend, Thanks everybody, Thank
Speaker 3: you Chow.
Speaker 2: When we come back, we have some giveaways for you.
