Speaker 1: You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from kf I
Speaker 1: AM six forty.
Speaker 2: Not only would the men as brothers themselves and the
Speaker 2: issue of the trials there were two of them, but
Speaker 2: also the accusation that Gascon is doing this for political purposes.
Speaker 2: Why are you smiling? Neil? Did I just say something?
Speaker 3: Did you sit on a duck or something?
Speaker 2: Oh? Did I just go I just gulped something. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: it was just something came up.
Speaker 3: None of us could figure out what the hell that playing.
Speaker 1: Now and now Handle on the news, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 1: Here's Bill Handle.
Speaker 2: Okay, Monday morning, October twenty eight, and we are close
Speaker 2: a week from tomorrow the election Saturday. I'm going to

Speaker 2: see you, sort of.
Speaker 3: Good morning Billiam, thank you.
Speaker 2: It's a partial. Yeah, you're not gonna be my sony.
Speaker 2: Actually no, I like to say something, but I'm not
Speaker 2: going to go there. Amy. Good morning, Hi Bill, Hey,
Speaker 2: and and good morning good morning.
Speaker 3: Bill.
Speaker 2: Ann and I were having a religious conversation a few
Speaker 2: minutes before we went started the show, and we were
Speaker 2: talking about, Uh, you know that I'm not religious yet
Speaker 2: at the same time, I consider myself Jewish. And I said,
Speaker 2: it's a cultural thing there, it's its own food, it's
Speaker 2: its own culture. And so she's we're going back and forth,
Speaker 2: and yeah, a lot of it is rules like you
Speaker 2: wear that funny little hat, Bill, Well, that comes directly
Speaker 2: from the Torah. But that's religious, that's true, that is religious.
Speaker 2: So you can't separate the two. You certainly can't. You
Speaker 2: can you can be a Jew and not believe in God.
Speaker 2: You cannot be a Christian and not believing. Are the
Speaker 2: rules that are all derived from the real You know,
Speaker 2: there are plenty that aren't. There are plenty of There
Speaker 2: are plenty of holidays or plenty of traditions for examples
Speaker 2: for example, well, yeah, cultural Christians, for example Christmas. People
Speaker 2: don't have to be religious and they enjoy Christmas. But yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, for example, there's let me ask you this, Neil,
Speaker 2: you're an expert in those things. Uh, Lent is that
Speaker 2: a lent?
Speaker 3: Lent? Lent?
Speaker 2: No, no, lent l a n T. Which, by the way,
Speaker 2: most of the most of the holidays derive from the
Speaker 2: Judeo Christian from from the Jewish law and lent really
Speaker 2: is simply a verb in the past tense that comes
Speaker 2: from uh, the Jewish law and lent. Stop it they
Speaker 2: little ant. It's not called the little hat whatever. It
Speaker 2: has two names, Fred and George. It's either a yamica,
Speaker 2: which is Yiddish, or it is a keepa or keep
Speaker 2: poet if you wear three or four of them. All right, anyway,
Speaker 2: So I love having religious discussions with Ann. And then
Speaker 2: she asked me do you believe in having her head? Like, oh, absolutely,
Speaker 2: not good, because you're going to one of them, I hope.
Speaker 2: So let me tell you if there is a heaven
Speaker 2: and hell, I've talked about this with Neil before, why
Speaker 2: would I want to go to heaven with all the
Speaker 2: boring people? Don't you think all the interesting fun just
Speaker 2: laughing at him down below, just waving. I am the
Speaker 2: right hand side of Jesus. Why is no one on
Speaker 2: the left hand side. Don't you think the right hand
Speaker 2: side is getting really crowded?
Speaker 3: He's left handed and you get elbowed.
Speaker 2: Well, there you go a lot of people on the
Speaker 2: right hand side of Jesus out there, you know, all right?
Speaker 2: Enough of that, We're not Neil and I have gotten
Speaker 2: into these discussions over the last twenty five years, over
Speaker 2: and over and over again. And as a matter of fact,
Speaker 2: the Jesus Show came out of a discussion that Neil.
Speaker 3: And I had. The Jesus Show came out of an
Speaker 3: idea that you and David G.
Speaker 2: Hall had, Yeah, Yeah, where I asked where it was
Speaker 2: on an Easter and I had Jesus come in and
Speaker 2: we played it straight. Everybody thought it was blasphemous, which
Speaker 2: it is not. If you listen to the Jesus Show,
Speaker 2: it is. People are really really amazed and astounded that
Speaker 2: it is nothing to do with blasphemy, even though Jesus
Speaker 2: is the host. It's as if Jesus had a show
Speaker 2: on KFI. And do you remember the first question that
Speaker 2: I asked of Jesus.
Speaker 3: You and I remember it slightly different, but I will
Speaker 3: tell you the only blasphemous show on the station is
Speaker 3: the one you're listening to right now.
Speaker 2: So I asked Jesus, Jesus, do you masturbate? And there
Speaker 2: was an uh what, well though he was, and he answered,
Speaker 2: I am both man and God. And then I came
Speaker 2: back with, well, this is the man part of you masturbate.
Speaker 2: I mean, come on, there are only two kinds of
Speaker 2: people on this planet, two kinds of men, men who
Speaker 2: masturbate in liars, and that's it.
Speaker 4: Christ couldn't masturbate because you'd have to fantasize for one
Speaker 4: and two. I believe the first question you asked was
Speaker 4: do you go to the bathroom?
Speaker 2: No, that was the second question. And then the same answer,
Speaker 2: and that is.
Speaker 3: You remember differently? Yeah, of course, all right, because every
Speaker 3: every first question is your head is in your head?
Speaker 3: Is about masturbation?
Speaker 2: No, it's not. No.
Speaker 3: Sometimes to meet you, Bill Handle, do you message.
Speaker 2: That is not that is not true? Sir?
Speaker 3: Stand over there so I can take the picture for you.
Speaker 2: But what I do how many times when I interviewed Donald,
Speaker 2: when I interviewed when I interviewed No, the first question,
Speaker 2: the first question I asked, is how much money do
Speaker 2: you have in your pocket?
Speaker 3: And sir, please just pay us. We just changed your oil.
Speaker 2: All right, let's do it. Handle on the news on
Speaker 2: this October twenty eighth Monday with Amy Neil and me
Speaker 2: lead story spell. I'm surprised it took so long after
Speaker 2: the attack that Israel, after Israel attacked Iran and the
Speaker 2: Iran already said it is the United States as its fault.
Speaker 2: They were the United States is complicit to all of this. Yeah,
Speaker 2: of course, of course, and that's just what the United
Speaker 2: States wants to do, is escalate the war in the
Speaker 2: Mid East. Sure, and it.
Speaker 3: Has to be the bad guy because everybody assumes Israel is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and actually it's the other way. Israel with the
Speaker 2: United States insisted that Israel does not attack or do
Speaker 2: not does not attack either the nuclear facilities of Iran,
Speaker 2: that's the weapons facilities, or it's oil infrastructure, and it didn't.
Speaker 2: The Israel listened to what the United States had to do,
Speaker 2: So it really is the other way. And did I say, he's.
Speaker 3: Admitted the nuclear weaponry. I'm sorry, why would we not
Speaker 3: go after because facturing of nuclear.
Speaker 2: Because that would set off everything. Then we that means
Speaker 2: we attack Iran and that's a straight out going to war,
Speaker 2: and we're not prepared.
Speaker 3: To do that.
Speaker 2: You know, maybe Trump will with Israel could be, which
Speaker 2: is why there are so many Jews in America that
Speaker 2: are pro Trump more so than usual. Jews are genuine
Speaker 2: generally Democrats, not so much anymore because of this issue
Speaker 2: of Israel. When Trump says he is the most pro
Speaker 2: Israeli president that's ever been. He's absolutely right, and that
Speaker 2: carries a lot of weight.
Speaker 5: Well, maybe too little, too late, But the governor is
Speaker 5: dangling a carrot. He wants to get production back up
Speaker 5: for movies and TV in California and in LA in particular,
Speaker 5: so he's come up with a expansion of the tax
Speaker 5: credit for the movie and TV industry. It would more
Speaker 5: than double the credit that's been in place since two
Speaker 5: thousand and nine, from three hundred and thirty million dollars
Speaker 5: to seven hundred and fifty million dollars. It could go
Speaker 5: into effect as soon as next June, but has to
Speaker 5: get the approval from the state legislature. Newsom said, this
Speaker 5: is about investing in the future of this industry.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't understand this because every single sound stage
Speaker 2: in southern California is jammed. Everyone is being used and
Speaker 2: they're building them like crazy. And I saw soon that's true.
Speaker 2: I think that's true. I think that's true. And would
Speaker 2: you look that up? See what the usage rate of
Speaker 2: sound stages in Los Angeles is? Where do you looked
Speaker 2: that up? I just want to know I made a
Speaker 2: statement because I'm going to.
Speaker 3: Get that information. I'm just saying that I know people
Speaker 3: in the industry. You know people that have maybe the
Speaker 3: big time sound studios, but there are there are many,
Speaker 3: many sound and different types of studios out here that
Speaker 3: I know that are sitting more vacant than they have.
Speaker 2: Okay, then you and I have different information. But the
Speaker 2: point is that a lot of productions moving to Georgia,
Speaker 2: for example, it has no limit on the amount of
Speaker 2: money that it pays in tax credits and the in
Speaker 2: other states, I think they just write a check to
Speaker 2: pay under the line underline costs. You know, the techies
Speaker 2: that are on the show soundstage, the sound people, the
Speaker 2: camera people, you know, the grips, the lighting people. All right,
Speaker 2: let's go ahead and take a break and we will
Speaker 2: come back on Bill.
Speaker 5: Yes, the average occupancy right for sound stages in the
Speaker 5: LA area was ninety percent in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 3: Well that's two years ago, going on three years ago.
Speaker 2: I'll give you that, I said, everyone, So I'm gonna
Speaker 2: I was sort of right. I'm gonna give myself sort
Speaker 2: of a b on that one.
Speaker 3: Neil, Yeah, that's me. I was just getting over spewed.
Speaker 4: Them from sput them to quarter pounders, so we had heard.
Speaker 4: I think it was the last Tuesday we got the
Speaker 4: warning from the CDC about McDonald's quarter pounders. Now they
Speaker 4: had to check two things. They had to check the
Speaker 4: fresh patties because you know they use those on the
Speaker 4: quarter pounders, and they had to check the onions. It
Speaker 4: seems that the onions are the one as they first thought,
Speaker 4: that are the problems. So the quarter pounder will be
Speaker 4: sold again, just without the the slivers of onion on
Speaker 4: it now as that seems to be the problem.
Speaker 2: So right now you cannot order quarter pounders coli.
Speaker 3: You can't. You can get a coli on the side
Speaker 3: if you bring it yourself.
Speaker 2: Got it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Another no endorsement for Vice President Harris, and it's
Speaker 5: not sitting very well. The Washington Post announced that it
Speaker 5: would not endorse a presidential candidate. Jeff Bezos, who owns
Speaker 5: the Post, won't talk about it. Is paper's journalists say
Speaker 5: it was him who ultimately spiked the planned endorsement. In
Speaker 5: the last twenty four hours, at least one editor has resigned,
Speaker 5: and several staffers have publicly expressed their dismay.
Speaker 2: This is a pattern I've never seen before, not a
Speaker 2: pattern because it's only two so far. One is the
Speaker 2: owner of the La Times spiked an endorsement of Harris,
Speaker 2: and now is the Washington Post with Bezos spiking the endorsement.
Speaker 2: And this is after the editorial board went ahead and
Speaker 2: was going to publish an endorsement. And usually there is
Speaker 2: a firewall amongst owners and the editorial staff. Owners do
Speaker 2: not cross that line. And now there's doesn't seem to
Speaker 2: be a problem not out endorsing Trump, but at the
Speaker 2: same time not endorsing Harris, which is almost an endorsement
Speaker 2: for Trump. Very unusual what's going on? But wow, how
Speaker 2: about this very unusual? Is that the way I'm describing
Speaker 2: this election cycle?
Speaker 3: Why don't they go back to newspapers and politics and
Speaker 3: everything just being separate.
Speaker 2: Well, because you always had an editorial board and they
Speaker 2: and the paper does endorse. And as a matter of fact,
Speaker 2: if you look at the down ticket and you read
Speaker 2: the La Times, they endorse right down the line for Assembly,
Speaker 2: for senator, for Congress people. They have no problem endorsing
Speaker 2: fifty years old. I'm sorry, was it not?
Speaker 3: What's that fifty years old? I think they can do it.
Speaker 3: Fifty years they've been doing that. I mean, I don't
Speaker 3: think it was since the beginning of newspapers.
Speaker 2: I don't know, No, I don't know. I think, well,
Speaker 2: certainly newspapers were horribly, horribly biased. Uh. If you look,
Speaker 2: for example, the election of Lincoln and you saw the
Speaker 2: northern papers versus the southern papers. Uh, it was it
Speaker 2: was crazy.
Speaker 3: There's always owned by rich white men, yeah, pretty much,
Speaker 3: but then there was.
Speaker 2: But here here's the problem. Pre Civil War, the only
Speaker 2: people that were rich were men. Uh, and the only
Speaker 2: people that were rich were white. Therefore rich white men,
Speaker 2: and a lot of them were you know, the entire
Speaker 2: North was pro Lincoln. You know, all abolitionists. Now he
Speaker 2: ran on the abolitionist ticket, all right.
Speaker 4: Widows and families of fallen LAPD officers came together just
Speaker 4: this past Sunday yesterday with the list demands of sorts
Speaker 4: in response to La City Council candidate Isabelle Geraldo.
Speaker 3: What is she? Coroto? Who is anti police?
Speaker 4: Apparently because she quoted a very famous NWA song saying
Speaker 4: f the police in this meeting, this meet and greet
Speaker 4: with college students.
Speaker 3: So she sounds like a real winner.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and she's trying to worm her way out of it.
Speaker 2: By saying all I was doing was quoting the song
Speaker 2: and the quote she says, what's the rap verse f
Speaker 2: the police?
Speaker 3: And then asked a question.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And then she went and said, that's how I
Speaker 2: see them. How do you get yourself around that one?
Speaker 3: Quoting mine confidence?
Speaker 2: I totally agree, Yeah, yeah, it's so. Then she tried,
Speaker 2: you know, she really list the statement, I understand the
Speaker 2: pain that families feel after the loss of a loss
Speaker 2: of a love one. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: thank you. Yeah. Worm yourself out. By the way, she
Speaker 2: didn't deny she said that. All she said is I
Speaker 2: believe in police officers, families who have fallen, and I
Speaker 2: feel the pain and the all I'm doing is pushing
Speaker 2: for accountability and equity and policing and real investment in
Speaker 2: our communities. Yeah, the police. That's the way I feel. Okay.
Speaker 3: They tell you just how bad that was that John
Speaker 3: Cobalt had de leone on the other day to no joke.
Speaker 2: That's how bad it was.
Speaker 3: Dog Cobalt had I.
Speaker 5: Love their picture on social media, all happy and smiles.
Speaker 5: I'm like, yeah, never thought we'd see that one.
Speaker 3: The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Speaker 5: Yeah, show hey can play Dodger Superstar show. Hey. Otani
Speaker 5: has been given the okay by Dodgers manager Dave Roberts
Speaker 5: to play in World Series Game three as long as
Speaker 5: you feel up to it. But he's in the lineup
Speaker 5: for tonight. He hurt his shoulder on Saturday night trying
Speaker 5: to steal second He got picked off, and then they
Speaker 5: said he had a sublaxation in his shoulder, which is
Speaker 5: basically a partially dislocated shoulder.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm assuming you were watching Amy. Oh yeah, so
Speaker 2: was I actually, and you could see and of course
Speaker 2: they do the replay, replay, replay, and you could see
Speaker 2: how he hurt himself and the guy was clearly in
Speaker 2: a whole lot of pain. And uh, how much is
Speaker 2: he getting? Seven hundred million dollars? Is that his contract
Speaker 2: over ten years?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Okay, isn't it?
Speaker 2: Show hey the money? No, you're actually the one that
Speaker 2: came up with that line. I must tell you, very's
Speaker 2: very strong, So show hey, show what I'm sorry, go ahead, Neil.
Speaker 4: Do they do the math, like how how much they're
Speaker 4: paying him per day he's out?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's an injury, you know, I don't even know.
Speaker 2: Do does he get paid or not paid? If he
Speaker 2: is out for injury a contract and is it a
Speaker 2: It can't be a no cut contract over ten years.
Speaker 2: That's insane. But there are no cut contracts, which is
Speaker 2: too bad. Didn't Aaron Rodgers have a no cut where
Speaker 2: he just got his money come hell or high water
Speaker 2: last year?
Speaker 3: I don't know. You remember those days, spell of what
Speaker 3: no cut contracts?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I remember those long long gone. Do you remember
Speaker 2: the days when there was a pension here?
Speaker 3: I was just at the end of it.
Speaker 4: So by the time I got the KFI, they were
Speaker 4: just getting rid of the pension.
Speaker 2: It was just just as you were getting out of
Speaker 2: elementary school. Yeah, the last day.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was learning to spell pension.
Speaker 2: Yeah. You know, the world is simply not the same.
Speaker 2: It isn't.
Speaker 3: That's across the board.
Speaker 2: What we have. We have a union, we have had
Speaker 2: a we have not had a contract in ten twelve years,
Speaker 2: negotiating maybe fifteen years.
Speaker 4: So the AP is reporting that you Just over a
Speaker 4: week before the election day, speakers labeled Puerto Rico a
Speaker 4: floating island of garbage, called Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris
Speaker 4: the devil, and said the woman vying to become the
Speaker 4: first woman and black or first woman and black woman
Speaker 4: president has begun.
Speaker 3: Her career as a prostitute.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there is this came out of Tony Hinchcliff, who
Speaker 4: I've never heard of, apparently a stand up comic, and
Speaker 4: all kinds of lewd and what could be seen as
Speaker 4: racist comments about Latino's Jews and black.
Speaker 2: You know what's not going to Trump campaign on that
Speaker 2: one is Puerto Ricans can't vote in the presidential election.
Speaker 3: No, but you have massive amounts of Puerto.
Speaker 2: Ricans some of the swings you do New York. But
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter because New York can go of course
Speaker 2: for Kamala Harris.
Speaker 4: And I have a questioningly enough Trump's campaign did distance themselves.
Speaker 2: They did for the first time. Yeah, and I have
Speaker 2: a question even though there are the biggest population of
Speaker 2: Puerto Ricans is in New York. You know there were
Speaker 2: no Reecans in New York before West Side Story. Did
Speaker 2: you know that?
Speaker 3: Really?
Speaker 2: Yeah? No, yeah, of course not. I'm Neil, Please of course,
Speaker 2: matter with you.
Speaker 4: And it wasn't a blatant ripoff of the Bard either
Speaker 4: Romeo and Juliet.
Speaker 2: No, not at all. Actually is I just came from
Speaker 2: Romeo and Juliet's house by the way, or Juliet's house,
Speaker 2: just to let you know.
Speaker 3: In Verona they weren't real people.
Speaker 2: Uh. Well, the house is there, and that balcony, that
Speaker 2: balcony is there, and there I was. And then you
Speaker 2: have Juliet statue that in front of the house. Okay, well,
Speaker 2: which everybody rubs her boots. A church is the house
Speaker 2: of God. So now do you believe in God? No,
Speaker 2: I'm just mentioning it's a church. Well, of course, you know,
Speaker 2: come on, we're not going to get into religion or
Speaker 2: we will do it. You want to take it away
Speaker 2: from here, please?
Speaker 3: Sure.
Speaker 2: So this could be really tough.
Speaker 5: Trump might have to make good on a campaign promise
Speaker 5: in deeport elon Musk okay maybe. President Biden slammed Musk
Speaker 5: on his immigration stance after a published report said that
Speaker 5: the CEO of Tesla once worked illegally in the US.
Speaker 5: Of course, Musk was born in South Africa. He came
Speaker 5: here on a student visa, and they say he was
Speaker 5: supposed to be on a student visa but then started working.
Speaker 2: Yes, he calls all this a lie, except there does
Speaker 2: seem to be evidence that, in fact he was working
Speaker 2: on a student visa, not that it's any big deal.
Speaker 5: Because when you come over. I remember, my friends have
Speaker 5: had nanny's come over and they can't get a job.
Speaker 5: They're not allowed to get a job in the US
Speaker 5: if they're on a student visa.
Speaker 2: Right, Maria or housekeeper is an allowed to work because
Speaker 2: she's illegal. She's not even really allowed to be in
Speaker 2: the country. That's why I get it for so so inexpensively.
Speaker 2: I threaten to call Immigration every week. None of that
Speaker 2: is true.
Speaker 3: By the way, are you here illegally?
Speaker 2: No? Absolutely not. I was. I was naturalized as an
Speaker 2: American citizen when I was eleven years old, Thank you
Speaker 2: very much.
Speaker 3: And it's stuck. Huh.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they can't take it away. I am a US citizen.
Speaker 2: They can't throw me out. And so when I get
Speaker 2: emails from you idiots that say, hey, go back to
Speaker 2: where you were used to be thrown out, you can't.
Speaker 2: I'm a citizen. I'm a US citizen. Stop it.
Speaker 3: You're a dual citizen.
Speaker 2: I am a dual citizen and about to be and
Speaker 2: about to be a triple citizen.
Speaker 3: Oh, you're going to gain the weight back.
Speaker 2: No, I'm about I'm applying for it, and I haven't
Speaker 2: shared this before. I am and shared it with you.
Speaker 2: I am applying for Polish citizenship because my father was
Speaker 2: actually born in Poland, even though he left as an
Speaker 2: infant went to Yugoslavia. And why would I want to
Speaker 2: be a Polish person?
Speaker 3: Oh? I thought they were just going to give you
Speaker 3: like a test and know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's you know, so I can change light bulbs.
Speaker 2: Why would I want to be a Polock right of
Speaker 2: somewhat of Polish descent.
Speaker 3: To say that term anymore?
Speaker 2: I don't think you can either. And that's because Poland
Speaker 2: he is belt and if him, I'm sure it does
Speaker 2: not or whatever. Yeah, may And that's because Poland is
Speaker 2: a member of the EU, and therefore I can go
Speaker 2: to Europe where I when I retire, I plan on
Speaker 2: living there for a period of time sort of. I
Speaker 2: want to be by coastal and it is. I'm a
Speaker 2: citizen of your.
Speaker 3: I think they'll take you any place that is pronounced eww.
Speaker 3: I think they'll take you.
Speaker 2: That's very strong. That's very strong anyway. So yeah, I'll
Speaker 2: have three passports. My niece had as four or five passports.
Speaker 2: That's kind. You can do that now, Okay, garsone.
Speaker 3: I'd like your finest port. You give that in a minute,
Speaker 3: All right, Long Beach will receive more than six point
Speaker 3: eight million in federal funding to enhance security and improve
Speaker 3: cargo flow rather at the port.
Speaker 4: The funding comes from the US Department of Emergency Management
Speaker 4: Agency's Port Security Grant program.
Speaker 3: That's a mouthful.
Speaker 4: And so two point six million will go to support infrastructure,
Speaker 4: strengthen cybersecurity, improved drone detection capabilities, which I have to
Speaker 4: imagine is a pretty big one now, among other things.
Speaker 4: So it'll be well spent. It sounds like your Microsoft, sir.
Speaker 2: I'm assuming that the Port of Los Angeles also has
Speaker 2: money coming in too, right next door, So I mean,
Speaker 2: the story doesn't talk about it, but money is being
Speaker 2: spent on a federal level, as it should.
Speaker 5: I would have loved to have seen the listing on
Speaker 5: this one, a four bedroom, thirty five hundred square foot
Speaker 5: mid century modern home in Pacific Palisades where a celebrity
Speaker 5: died in a hot tub. Matthew Perry's home sold for
Speaker 5: eight point five five million dollars. Of course, it was
Speaker 5: almost a year ago to the day that he died
Speaker 5: of a drug overdoser from ketamine in his hot tub.
Speaker 3: So sad.
Speaker 2: And look at the woman who bought it as a vacation.
Speaker 5: Home, which is just weird to me. I know people
Speaker 5: live in houses that people have died in, but.
Speaker 2: I don't see I would. I mean, I'm more impressed
Speaker 2: with who she is, NBA from sc and she founded
Speaker 2: this real estate consulting firm, I mean, a huge, huge business.
Speaker 2: This woman is so sharp.
Speaker 3: I hope the listing didn't say a great place to
Speaker 3: enjoy with friends.
Speaker 2: Oh, would be excellent.
Speaker 3: I'm just saying that, you know how they try, and
Speaker 3: you know, piek ap Yeah, and then.
Speaker 2: Let's go into that howlo. I'm going to give you
Speaker 2: the credit. Did she get a friends and family price?
Speaker 3: She did not.
Speaker 2: Get? But you're the one that started that.
Speaker 3: You put the light on it. Now that that's yours, you.
Speaker 2: Come up with a couple of good ones today. All right,
Speaker 2: let's move on, all right.
Speaker 4: Egypt's president announced Sunday that his country has proposed a
Speaker 4: two day ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, during which four
Speaker 4: hostages held in Gaza would be freed. So far, none
Speaker 4: of the actual parties participating have responded. I know, so
Speaker 4: they have you might as well, say, Bill Handle has
Speaker 4: announced that he proposed a two day cease fire.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they go back and forth, but nothing, the basics
Speaker 2: haven't changed at all. Hamas still wants number one the
Speaker 2: destruction of Israel, although they're not going to get that,
Speaker 2: but they'll only talk ceasefire in Israel completely leaves Gaza,
Speaker 2: which is not going to happen, and not Neta Nya
Speaker 2: who says we're not leaving until Hamas is completely destroyed. Okay,
Speaker 2: where do you go with that? No one's getting no
Speaker 2: one's getting off their perch.
Speaker 5: So how much do you make? It's not enough living
Speaker 5: paycheck to paycheck. Now, about a fifth of US households
Speaker 5: that earn more than one hundred and fifty thousand dollars
Speaker 5: a year say they're living paycheck to paycheck.
Speaker 3: Wow, that's defined.
Speaker 2: There's a reason for it. It's not even though it's
Speaker 2: more expensive to live, there is a reason for it. Amy,
Speaker 2: I'm going to throw that back at you. And why
Speaker 2: is that?
Speaker 5: Well, they're saying that the analysis defines people living paycheck
Speaker 5: to paycheck as those who dedicate more than ninety five
Speaker 5: percent of their household income to necessities including gas, food, internet, utilities,
Speaker 5: public transportation, childcare, and house incomes.
Speaker 2: Now, also, the more more money you make, the more
Speaker 2: money you spend. Well, there's that. That's the problem. You
Speaker 2: buy a half you're making one hundred and fifty thousand dollars
Speaker 2: a year. You're not going to buy a five hundred
Speaker 2: thousand dollars house. You're going to buy a million a
Speaker 2: two million dollar house.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 4: I have theories about that. There are math equations you
Speaker 4: can do. Because everybody thinks more money, more better, and
Speaker 4: it's just not. I think that when you push past
Speaker 4: a certain point, you end up spending.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you do have that money right now, quest checked it.
Speaker 2: I w I went to law school with a bunch
Speaker 2: of people who became senior partners. Made buckets of money,
Speaker 2: but they maintained that lifestyle and they wanted to get out,
Speaker 2: but they couldn't because it was so expensive to live.
Speaker 2: Because as they made those hundreds of thousands dollars a year,
Speaker 2: they lived one hundreds of dollars a year lifestyle. That's
Speaker 2: the problem, and that's why.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're better off living below your means no matter
Speaker 3: what you make.
Speaker 2: Yeah, buy costco clothes.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's for you, all right.
Speaker 4: So astronaut who was briefly hospitalized after returning from the
Speaker 4: spake space has been released. So apparently, as they come
Speaker 4: back to Earth, they go basically, they're flown to a hospital.
Speaker 4: They do these medical checks and usually they are released,
Speaker 4: and most of them, three of them were. One who
Speaker 4: was not identified was kept for observation for an unspecified
Speaker 4: medical issue. This is all due not naming them and
Speaker 4: not naming what the situation was. It is all due
Speaker 4: to patient privacy. But apparently the astronaut is in good
Speaker 4: health now and we'll resume normal post flight reconditioning with
Speaker 4: the other crew member.
Speaker 2: I have a question the identity will not be released.
Speaker 2: There's exactly three of them, and it doesn't take much
Speaker 2: to have someone planted at the hospital to see which
Speaker 2: two were released.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's kind of said with a wink, right,
Speaker 3: It's like, we can't give this inform patient information.
Speaker 4: Wink wink. But yeah, you do the simple math. It's
Speaker 4: not it's not really, you know. It's like the old
Speaker 4: thing about being in an elevator. There's two people in
Speaker 4: an elevator and they smell gas. Somebody passed gas. They
Speaker 4: both know who did it.
Speaker 3: Hello, Yeah, I'm.
Speaker 2: Just trying to come up with some kind of a joke,
Speaker 2: and I just can't.
Speaker 3: Getting such deep philosophical Neil.
Speaker 2: Neil, you and I have had some experience with that.
Speaker 3: Okay, you've had trips in the elevator get Oh.
Speaker 2: Yes we have.
Speaker 4: There was a time after his gastric bypass that I
Speaker 4: gotta tell you, it was like the devil himself was
Speaker 4: escaping from Shiol.

Speaker 2: do KF. I am six forty live everywhere on the
