00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:41.479
<v Speaker 1>with us. Of course, it is the busiest travel day

10
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:43.640
<v Speaker 1>of the year, so maybe you're up early getting ready.

11
00:00:43.399 --> 00:00:44.159
<v Speaker 2>To hit the road.

12
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:47.399
<v Speaker 1>There's only like eighty million people who are going to

13
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:50.840
<v Speaker 1>be traveling for the holiday weekend, and today is supposed

14
00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:52.520
<v Speaker 1>to be the busiest day. I think they said three

15
00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:57.759
<v Speaker 1>million people expected to pass through TSA security checkpoints by

16
00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:00.600
<v Speaker 1>air today. We're gonna be talking to ABC Jim Ryan

17
00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:01.920
<v Speaker 1>in just a couple of minutes about that.

18
00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:02.759
<v Speaker 2>He'll fill us in.

19
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:06.239
<v Speaker 1>Here's what's ahead on wake up Call. The Menendez brothers

20
00:01:06.359 --> 00:01:08.879
<v Speaker 1>will not be home for the holidays. Eric and Lyle

21
00:01:09.079 --> 00:01:12.680
<v Speaker 1>made their first court appearances in decades yesterday. It was

22
00:01:12.719 --> 00:01:15.840
<v Speaker 1>done virtually their lawyers and family members asked for the

23
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:18.200
<v Speaker 1>brothers to be re sentenced in the murder of their parents,

24
00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:22.319
<v Speaker 1>in nineteen eighty nine. The judge rescheduled a December eleventh

25
00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:26.319
<v Speaker 1>hearing to late January. A federal judge says a San

26
00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:29.879
<v Speaker 1>Jose State volleyball player can play in the upcoming women's

27
00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Mountain West Conference tournament even though she's apparently transgender. Nine

28
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:39.640
<v Speaker 1>players have sued, challenging the conference's rules that allow transgender

29
00:01:39.680 --> 00:01:42.359
<v Speaker 1>athletes to play. They claim it could be unsafe and unfair.

30
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:46.200
<v Speaker 1>They're appealing the judge's ruling. Santa has made one of

31
00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:49.079
<v Speaker 1>his first appearances of the season, attending the tree lighting

32
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:52.959
<v Speaker 1>ceremonies at both the Grove and Los Angeles Union Station

33
00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:57.359
<v Speaker 1>and Sinks Lance Bass American Idol winner Abby Carter, love

34
00:01:57.400 --> 00:02:00.359
<v Speaker 1>Her and Robin Thicke all joined Santa at the Grove

35
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:03.840
<v Speaker 1>last night for the tree lighting, drone show and fireworks.

36
00:02:04.359 --> 00:02:06.159
<v Speaker 1>Let's get started with some of the stories coming out

37
00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:09.080
<v Speaker 1>of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. The Menendez brothers'

38
00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:12.960
<v Speaker 1>potential re sentencing has been delayed until at least late January.

39
00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:15.599
<v Speaker 4>Eric and Leulman Indez appeared virtually in a courtroom in

40
00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:17.560
<v Speaker 4>van Nis, where they had hoped to argue for their

41
00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:20.639
<v Speaker 4>potential release after thirty five years in prison. The brothers

42
00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:23.599
<v Speaker 4>murdered their parents in Beverly Hills in nineteen eighty nine,

43
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:26.759
<v Speaker 4>but say new evidence details sexual abuse by their father

44
00:02:26.840 --> 00:02:29.000
<v Speaker 4>that would have benefited their cases back in the nineties.

45
00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:33.120
<v Speaker 4>Their aunt, Joan Vandermullen, supports the brother's release. What kind

46
00:02:33.120 --> 00:02:37.159
<v Speaker 4>of can do in its father's god, I can't stand

47
00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:39.960
<v Speaker 4>The judge says he needs time to review seventeen boxes

48
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:42.280
<v Speaker 4>of documents and that hearings at the end of January

49
00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:45.000
<v Speaker 4>are now scheduled. Michael Monks KFI News.

50
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:47.280
<v Speaker 1>A small plane that crashed while trying to make an

51
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:50.159
<v Speaker 1>emergency landing at Fullerton Airport has been taken to a

52
00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:52.439
<v Speaker 1>tow yard to try to figure out what caused it

53
00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:56.080
<v Speaker 1>to crash. The Mooney M twenty plane hit a tree

54
00:02:56.159 --> 00:02:59.319
<v Speaker 1>yesterday and sheared a fire hydrant as it went down

55
00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:03.120
<v Speaker 1>on art Jack. Fullerton Fire Department Division Chief John Miller

56
00:03:03.159 --> 00:03:05.479
<v Speaker 1>says the pilot couldn't make it back to the airports.

57
00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:07.400
<v Speaker 5>There was a fire hydrant that was hit, but other

58
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:09.479
<v Speaker 5>than that there was minimal damage. Other than to the

59
00:03:09.520 --> 00:03:10.639
<v Speaker 5>airplane itself.

60
00:03:11.199 --> 00:03:13.439
<v Speaker 1>Firefighters had to pull the pilot and his passenger out

61
00:03:13.439 --> 00:03:15.159
<v Speaker 1>of the plane. Both were taken to the hospital with

62
00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:20.639
<v Speaker 1>moderate injuries. LA School Superintendent Alberto Carvallo says a burglary

63
00:03:20.639 --> 00:03:23.879
<v Speaker 1>at Wadsworth Avenue Elementary School in South LA has caused

64
00:03:23.919 --> 00:03:27.199
<v Speaker 1>more than one hundred thousand dollars damage. About twenty four

65
00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:30.199
<v Speaker 1>doors were damaged over the weekend and a building was ransacked.

66
00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:34.319
<v Speaker 6>Beyond the cost is the inconvenience this brings to the

67
00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:38.560
<v Speaker 6>educational community, to the teachers, to the students themselves.

68
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:41.599
<v Speaker 1>Carvallo says more than one hundred and seventy break ins

69
00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:44.240
<v Speaker 1>have been reported at schools across the district this year.

70
00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:47.680
<v Speaker 1>He says the recent voter approval of the district's nine

71
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:51.439
<v Speaker 1>billion dollar bond measure will help by providing campus improvements

72
00:03:51.479 --> 00:03:53.960
<v Speaker 1>like security cameras and alarm systems.

73
00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:56.240
<v Speaker 2>Special Council Jack Smith.

74
00:03:55.919 --> 00:03:58.759
<v Speaker 1>Has filed a motion to drop all four felony charges

75
00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:01.840
<v Speaker 1>against President elect Trump in connection with efforts to overturn

76
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:06.039
<v Speaker 1>the twenty twenty presidential election. Smith also filed a similar

77
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:09.759
<v Speaker 1>motion yesterday to drop all charges over Trump's alleged efforts

78
00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:12.759
<v Speaker 1>to store classified documents at his home in Florida. The

79
00:04:12.800 --> 00:04:15.759
<v Speaker 1>Supreme Court put both cases in doubt this year when

80
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:18.720
<v Speaker 1>the Justice is ruled that Trump has some presidential immunity.

81
00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Smith and his team are expected to resign before Trump

82
00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:25.639
<v Speaker 1>takes office in January. Tiger Woods says he won't be

83
00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:28.800
<v Speaker 1>playing in next week's Hero World Challenge, a tournament he

84
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:32.160
<v Speaker 1>hosts in the Bahamas. The golf legend is still recuperating

85
00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:35.079
<v Speaker 1>from major back surgery in September. Wood says he is

86
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:38.720
<v Speaker 1>disappointed but is looking forward to being the tournament host.

87
00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:41.879
<v Speaker 2>Let's say good morning to ABC's Jim ryans So.

88
00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:44.839
<v Speaker 1>Jim Nick said that traffic right now is holiday light,

89
00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:46.319
<v Speaker 1>but I don't think that's going to last.

90
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:50.439
<v Speaker 6>Probably not no, because you've got something like seventy million

91
00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:53.800
<v Speaker 6>people who are traveling by car. It's fifty miles or

92
00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:56.800
<v Speaker 6>more for the holiday, and that's all going on across

93
00:04:56.839 --> 00:05:00.399
<v Speaker 6>the country right now. So, yeah, what are you five morning?

94
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:02.439
<v Speaker 6>It's going to pick up here within the next couple

95
00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:03.959
<v Speaker 6>of hours and it's going to stay that way for

96
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:09.360
<v Speaker 6>a few days. Record travel, we're well exceeded the highs

97
00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:11.759
<v Speaker 6>of twenty nineteen. That's kind of the benchmark and has

98
00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:14.199
<v Speaker 6>been for a few years amy as the point at

99
00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:17.439
<v Speaker 6>which the pandemic came in and essentially shut travel down.

100
00:05:17.519 --> 00:05:19.079
<v Speaker 6>We've fully recovered from that now.

101
00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:22.000
<v Speaker 2>Isn't that good to know? And so they're saying it's

102
00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:23.639
<v Speaker 2>the busiest travel day.

103
00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:25.800
<v Speaker 1>Today is supposed to be the busiest travel day of

104
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:27.480
<v Speaker 1>the of the weekend.

105
00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:31.519
<v Speaker 6>Today. Yeah, well, the next Monday we'll rival it, certainly

106
00:05:31.519 --> 00:05:34.079
<v Speaker 6>at the airports as people fly back home after their

107
00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:37.240
<v Speaker 6>long holiday weekend. So yes, today it's going to be

108
00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:41.040
<v Speaker 6>very heavy. And we were already looking at some travel

109
00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:45.160
<v Speaker 6>delays Northeast in Boston, New York and DC. They've got

110
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:47.959
<v Speaker 6>weather related flight delays, not a lot, but a few anyway,

111
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:49.920
<v Speaker 6>and including a couple of flights that are heading to

112
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:52.759
<v Speaker 6>southern California from Washington, DC.

113
00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:56.160
<v Speaker 1>So even if you're here and the weather is not

114
00:05:56.240 --> 00:05:59.639
<v Speaker 1>a factor, you probably should still call ahead because sometimes

115
00:05:59.639 --> 00:06:02.040
<v Speaker 1>planes coming in and get delayed, and that delays.

116
00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:05.399
<v Speaker 6>Year getting butterfly effect things across the country can affect

117
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:05.839
<v Speaker 6>you here.

118
00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:10.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And so the numbers are up from last year,

119
00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:13.160
<v Speaker 1>but it's like a two or three percent increase, right,

120
00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:14.879
<v Speaker 1>So it's not like we're going to see a marked

121
00:06:14.959 --> 00:06:16.360
<v Speaker 1>difference from last year.

122
00:06:16.519 --> 00:06:19.759
<v Speaker 6>Well probably not. No, Statistically, yes there is a difference,

123
00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:22.920
<v Speaker 6>but in terms of the real impact on individual travelers,

124
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:25.720
<v Speaker 6>probably not. But it's still it would serve you well

125
00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:27.879
<v Speaker 6>to get to the airport early, to maybe gas up

126
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:30.120
<v Speaker 6>and get out of there early as you start to

127
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:33.279
<v Speaker 6>hit the road. Gas prices are lower this year than

128
00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:37.040
<v Speaker 6>last year, and you know that's certainly feeding into people's

129
00:06:37.079 --> 00:06:39.759
<v Speaker 6>desire to go ahead and get out of town. I

130
00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:42.480
<v Speaker 6>think the average across the country right now is three

131
00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:46.399
<v Speaker 6>dollars a little over three dollars per gallon for regular. Oh,

132
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:49.759
<v Speaker 6>I know, I know. You want to hear the Texas number.

133
00:06:50.439 --> 00:06:51.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, what's the number in Texas?

134
00:06:51.720 --> 00:06:55.519
<v Speaker 6>You really want to hear it? Uh huh forty seven cents? Again, No,

135
00:06:56.160 --> 00:07:01.399
<v Speaker 6>it's average price around here is two sixty four for regular.

136
00:07:01.800 --> 00:07:05.800
<v Speaker 6>I suspect yours is a little higher than that. It is.

137
00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:08.360
<v Speaker 1>Last so I filled up yesterday it was four fifty

138
00:07:08.399 --> 00:07:09.759
<v Speaker 1>nine a gallon. I just remember that.

139
00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:12.680
<v Speaker 2>But that was how do you do that? I don't know,

140
00:07:12.720 --> 00:07:13.279
<v Speaker 2>you just do it.

141
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:18.720
<v Speaker 1>In California right now, the average for regular is for

142
00:07:18.720 --> 00:07:22.759
<v Speaker 1>forty four. And that's in California. It's yeah, it's usually

143
00:07:22.839 --> 00:07:23.800
<v Speaker 1>higher in La too.

144
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:26.639
<v Speaker 6>Yeah. Well, my brother lives in San Francisco, and he's, oh,

145
00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:28.079
<v Speaker 6>that's much anymore.

146
00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:31.600
<v Speaker 2>That's why you know, last time I traveled, I took

147
00:07:31.639 --> 00:07:32.000
<v Speaker 2>the train.

148
00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:34.920
<v Speaker 6>Oh yeah, yeah, a lot of people are doing that, yeah,

149
00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:38.600
<v Speaker 6>trains traveling by train. It figures into the statistics this

150
00:07:38.680 --> 00:07:43.120
<v Speaker 6>year too. So two does cruising. People are taking cruises

151
00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:45.759
<v Speaker 6>like never before. One report by Oh my God.

152
00:07:45.839 --> 00:07:50.279
<v Speaker 1>Can you imagine doing a Thanksgiving cruise because a cruise

153
00:07:50.879 --> 00:07:54.079
<v Speaker 1>you eat the whole time anyway, and if you build

154
00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:58.120
<v Speaker 1>in Thanksgiving around that, that would be well delicious and

155
00:07:58.399 --> 00:07:59.800
<v Speaker 1>probably painful for your stomach.

156
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:04.720
<v Speaker 6>I spent Thanksgiving eight years ago something like that. It

157
00:08:04.759 --> 00:08:07.040
<v Speaker 6>was right after Ferguson, So I was stuck in Saint

158
00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:11.439
<v Speaker 6>Louis for Thanksgiving and an ABC team and I ate

159
00:08:11.519 --> 00:08:14.040
<v Speaker 6>our Thanksgiving in a casino and it was the most

160
00:08:14.040 --> 00:08:16.839
<v Speaker 6>depressing thing you've ever seen. It was so sad.

161
00:08:17.399 --> 00:08:20.439
<v Speaker 1>Well, hopefully you'll be home this Jearsey pro tips, What

162
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:22.399
<v Speaker 1>are some pro tips for people who are traveling?

163
00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:24.959
<v Speaker 6>Always get there early, make sure you get there early.

164
00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:27.800
<v Speaker 6>Be patient. You know that I think is really a

165
00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:31.639
<v Speaker 6>lot of it is just keeping things in perspective. If

166
00:08:31.639 --> 00:08:34.720
<v Speaker 6>you're traveling somewhere you're not working right, and so if

167
00:08:34.720 --> 00:08:37.240
<v Speaker 6>you get a little flight delay, fine, just sit on relaxed,

168
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:39.279
<v Speaker 6>have a cup of coffee and read the paper, you know,

169
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:41.440
<v Speaker 6>because you're going to get there eventually. You'll have a

170
00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:44.639
<v Speaker 6>nice time. Just try to chill out a bit. Philadelphia,

171
00:08:44.960 --> 00:08:48.879
<v Speaker 6>they called the Wagging Tails Brigade. It's a team of

172
00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:52.159
<v Speaker 6>twenty three dogs and their handlers and they wander around

173
00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:54.360
<v Speaker 6>the airport letting and the vest on the dog. You

174
00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:56.919
<v Speaker 6>know you see vests on police dogs. They keep back.

175
00:08:56.960 --> 00:09:01.159
<v Speaker 6>Don't pet stay away the vest on these dogs, It says.

176
00:09:00.919 --> 00:09:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Pet me, that is so cute, except if you don't

177
00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:06.559
<v Speaker 1>like dogs, like one of my best friends complains, because

178
00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:08.000
<v Speaker 1>it's just like, why are dogs in stores?

179
00:09:08.320 --> 00:09:10.559
<v Speaker 2>She probably would not like to see dogs in airports either.

180
00:09:10.799 --> 00:09:12.039
<v Speaker 6>Well, you don't have to go pet.

181
00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:13.440
<v Speaker 2>It, Yeah, okay.

182
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:17.799
<v Speaker 1>And then what's going on with the Charlotte workers strike?

183
00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:19.519
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, there was a strike going on over there with

184
00:09:19.639 --> 00:09:24.000
<v Speaker 6>Charlotte Douglas International Airport. The airports support workers. These are

185
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:26.480
<v Speaker 6>folks who go in and clean the planes between flights,

186
00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:30.039
<v Speaker 6>and they wheel people in wheelchairs to the flights. You know,

187
00:09:30.080 --> 00:09:32.480
<v Speaker 6>they do kind of the support work. Well, the folks

188
00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:34.639
<v Speaker 6>at Charlotte say they can't even afford rent, They can

189
00:09:34.679 --> 00:09:36.840
<v Speaker 6>barely afford to drive to the airport to get to work,

190
00:09:36.879 --> 00:09:41.320
<v Speaker 6>and so they've gone on strike. It's not impacting flights

191
00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:44.159
<v Speaker 6>much even at Charlotte, much less across the industry. But

192
00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:50.000
<v Speaker 6>Charlotte being an American airlines hub, it's possible if you

193
00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:52.679
<v Speaker 6>suddenly started seeing a slow down there at Charlotte, then

194
00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:55.840
<v Speaker 6>that could ripple around the country again. Butterfly effects something

195
00:09:55.840 --> 00:09:59.159
<v Speaker 6>happening at Charlotte affecting folks in that you know, John

196
00:09:59.200 --> 00:09:59.960
<v Speaker 6>Wayne or Lai.

197
00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:03.919
<v Speaker 2>Yes, okay, any last final words?

198
00:10:04.039 --> 00:10:04.240
<v Speaker 7>Am I.

199
00:10:04.519 --> 00:10:06.320
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if we'll talk to you before Thanksgiving?

200
00:10:06.519 --> 00:10:09.519
<v Speaker 6>Maybe tom Well, I'm working tomorrow. Well, I'll try to

201
00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:11.080
<v Speaker 6>come up with something that you're interested in.

202
00:10:11.320 --> 00:10:13.840
<v Speaker 2>Okay, do that would you? It's always a pleasure.

203
00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:16.320
<v Speaker 1>Jim Ryan, thank you all right, and don't forget to

204
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:18.000
<v Speaker 1>pack your patients.

205
00:10:17.559 --> 00:10:21.840
<v Speaker 6>Pack some patience. I hate that cliches.

206
00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:22.799
<v Speaker 1>I know.

207
00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:24.320
<v Speaker 2>All right, we'll talk to you soon, Jim.

208
00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:24.879
<v Speaker 6>Thanks. Okay.

209
00:10:24.919 --> 00:10:26.759
<v Speaker 1>So let's get back to some of the stories coming

210
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:28.960
<v Speaker 1>out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. A couple

211
00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:31.440
<v Speaker 1>from Rosemeat have been arrested for the death of their

212
00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:33.960
<v Speaker 1>one year old daughter. The La County Sheriff's Departments' his

213
00:10:34.039 --> 00:10:36.919
<v Speaker 1>deputies were called to a home on Strathmore Avenue earlier

214
00:10:36.919 --> 00:10:40.320
<v Speaker 1>this month about a baby who was unconscious not breathing.

215
00:10:40.840 --> 00:10:44.120
<v Speaker 1>They say the girl was unresponsive and had multiple injuries.

216
00:10:44.200 --> 00:10:46.879
<v Speaker 1>She died at the hospital. A sibling was placed in

217
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:51.960
<v Speaker 1>protective custody. Stepfather and son team has been arrested for

218
00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:54.320
<v Speaker 1>trying to steal from a store in Upland. Police say

219
00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:56.679
<v Speaker 1>a police officer caught the teen in the store over

220
00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:59.399
<v Speaker 1>the weekend, and while he was being detained, the stepdad

221
00:10:59.440 --> 00:11:03.159
<v Speaker 1>was allegedly stuffing stolen closed into a suitcase. The stepfather

222
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:05.200
<v Speaker 1>tried to run off but was caught. He's out on

223
00:11:05.240 --> 00:11:08.440
<v Speaker 1>parole and has outstanding warrants. He was arrested. The teen

224
00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:11.799
<v Speaker 1>was cited and released to his mother. Most charges against

225
00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:14.759
<v Speaker 1>more than two dozen protesters who blocked the Golden Gate

226
00:11:14.799 --> 00:11:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Bridge and protests of the Israel Hamas war have been

227
00:11:17.759 --> 00:11:21.320
<v Speaker 1>dismissed a judge throughout thirty two of the forty four

228
00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:23.559
<v Speaker 1>charges against twenty six protesters.

229
00:11:23.559 --> 00:11:30.960
<v Speaker 8>Throughout history, people have used protest and civil disobedience as

230
00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:33.960
<v Speaker 8>a way of bringing about social change. These protesters are

231
00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:35.200
<v Speaker 8>simply in that tradition.

232
00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:39.360
<v Speaker 1>Rachel Liederman with the Center for Protest Law and Litigation

233
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:42.720
<v Speaker 1>says there's no precedent for the types of charges that

234
00:11:42.759 --> 00:11:45.639
<v Speaker 1>have been filed against the group. Most of those counts

235
00:11:45.639 --> 00:11:49.840
<v Speaker 1>were false imprisonment. The twelve charges that remain include federal

236
00:11:49.879 --> 00:11:53.519
<v Speaker 1>counts of conspiracy. Authorities Inventor County are searching for a

237
00:11:53.519 --> 00:11:56.879
<v Speaker 1>woman accused of running a home rental scam. Investigator Say

238
00:11:56.919 --> 00:11:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Jennifer Singh advertised a home for rent in Semi Valley

239
00:11:59.639 --> 00:12:02.120
<v Speaker 1>last year. She ended up promising to lease the home

240
00:12:02.159 --> 00:12:04.200
<v Speaker 1>to a family for twenty five hundred dollars, but it

241
00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:07.120
<v Speaker 1>turned out she didn't own the home and wasn't authorized

242
00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:09.720
<v Speaker 1>to rent it. She took the family's twenty five hundred

243
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:12.679
<v Speaker 1>dollars anyway. Detective say Singh did it again in March,

244
00:12:12.759 --> 00:12:15.559
<v Speaker 1>this time stealing four thousand dollars from would be renters.

245
00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Singh is facing two counts of grand theft. Democrat Derek

246
00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:23.600
<v Speaker 1>Tran has declared victory in the forty fifth congressional district race,

247
00:12:23.879 --> 00:12:28.200
<v Speaker 1>despite having only a slim lead over Republican Congresswoman Michelle Steele.

248
00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:32.519
<v Speaker 1>The Orange County Registrar of Voters's Tran added another thirty

00:14:25.360 --> 00:14:29.080

00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:33.440
<v Speaker 1>Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has approved the potential deal in principle.

286
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:35.879

288
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:44.039
<v Speaker 1>vandalized the Ebenezer Scrooge tombstone featured in the nineteen eighty

289
00:14:44.039 --> 00:14:46.440
<v Speaker 1>four version of A Christmas Carol starring George C.

290

<v Speaker 2>Scott.

291
00:14:47.240 --> 00:14:50.759
<v Speaker 1>The tombstone was left in the cemetery after filming and

292
00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:54.360
<v Speaker 1>had become a tourist attraction. Officials in Shrewsbury, England or

293
00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:58.440
<v Speaker 1>still deciding if the shattered tombstone at Saint Chad's Church

294

<v Speaker 2>So Jerdana.

297
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:07.960
<v Speaker 1>Yesterday when we talked, we talked about how a ceasefire

298
00:15:08.039 --> 00:15:10.919
<v Speaker 1>deal was in the works but probably still weeks away.

299
00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:12.759
<v Speaker 2>That timeline has been moved up.

300
00:15:14.559 --> 00:15:17.679
<v Speaker 9>Wow, it has really moved up, and it's probably the

301
00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:20.919
<v Speaker 9>first bit of really good news to report in more

302
00:15:20.960 --> 00:15:26.679
<v Speaker 9>than fourteen months of this relentless and painful war. But

303
00:15:26.759 --> 00:15:30.240
<v Speaker 9>it looks like Natagnell is prepared to put the US

304
00:15:30.279 --> 00:15:34.879
<v Speaker 9>back speacefire with levinonto a vote in his security cabinet

305
00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:39.440
<v Speaker 9>later today, and from what we understand sources telling ABC News,

306
00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:44.120
<v Speaker 9>there is a majority of support and this cabinet is

307
00:15:44.159 --> 00:15:48.840
<v Speaker 9>expected to approve a ceasefire. That means it could start

308
00:15:48.879 --> 00:15:51.919
<v Speaker 9>as early as Wednesday morning, it's a sixty day seafire

309
00:15:52.320 --> 00:15:56.759
<v Speaker 9>that would see Husbola forced to move about twenty miles

310
00:15:57.279 --> 00:16:00.320
<v Speaker 9>north of Israel's border, beyond the Latani River, and it

311
00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:04.039
<v Speaker 9>would also require the Israeli army to fully withdraw from

312
00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:08.639
<v Speaker 9>southern Lebanon, and then the Lebanese Army along with UNIFIL,

313
00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:13.159
<v Speaker 9>would be responsible for really policing southern Lebanon and keeping

314
00:16:13.200 --> 00:16:16.399
<v Speaker 9>Husbala out. Even the US is set to play a

315
00:16:16.480 --> 00:16:18.320
<v Speaker 9>role in monitoring the seasire.

316
00:16:19.320 --> 00:16:22.360
<v Speaker 1>And as far as like what the two sides have

317
00:16:22.440 --> 00:16:24.799
<v Speaker 1>to give up to come to a compromise. I would

318
00:16:24.840 --> 00:16:27.600
<v Speaker 1>imagine that Israel wants out of Lebanon anyway. I don't

319
00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:30.200
<v Speaker 1>they They don't want a long time.

320
00:16:30.240 --> 00:16:36.879
<v Speaker 9>They they don't. But I think many people presume that

321
00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:40.440
<v Speaker 9>the Israeli army would hold a security buffer. Certainly the

322
00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:43.159
<v Speaker 9>residents of northern Israel wanted to see Israeli troops on

323
00:16:43.200 --> 00:16:46.080
<v Speaker 9>the other side. It would give them a greater sense

324
00:16:46.120 --> 00:16:48.519
<v Speaker 9>of security. But that's not going to happen, and so

325
00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:51.440
<v Speaker 9>Israel the Prime Minister, he's really going to have to

326
00:16:51.440 --> 00:16:54.240
<v Speaker 9>try to sell this deal to the residents of the

327
00:16:54.279 --> 00:16:58.799
<v Speaker 9>north who've been you know, internally displaced now for more

328
00:16:58.840 --> 00:17:01.919
<v Speaker 9>than a year, and they are fearful to go back,

329
00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:05.000
<v Speaker 9>especially after the last few days where Osbala has shown

330
00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:09.000
<v Speaker 9>that they still have capabilities. They can still fire dozens

331
00:17:09.039 --> 00:17:11.799
<v Speaker 9>of rockets and drones on northern and even central Israel.

332
00:17:13.160 --> 00:17:16.680
<v Speaker 1>And then who polices this to make sure that the

333
00:17:16.720 --> 00:17:19.640
<v Speaker 1>two sides aren't firing at each other, because the ceasefires

334
00:17:19.640 --> 00:17:21.119
<v Speaker 1>are so fragile.

335
00:17:20.839 --> 00:17:24.000
<v Speaker 2>You know, just takes one rocket, took it out.

336
00:17:24.559 --> 00:17:28.599
<v Speaker 9>Right, right. So the Lebanese Army, which did not play

337
00:17:28.599 --> 00:17:32.160
<v Speaker 9>a major role policing the last agreement between the sides,

338
00:17:32.640 --> 00:17:36.079
<v Speaker 9>is supposed to bolster its presence in southern Lebanon along

339
00:17:36.119 --> 00:17:39.720
<v Speaker 9>with UNIFIL. And then again there's a committee that's going

340
00:17:39.759 --> 00:17:42.319
<v Speaker 9>to be led by the US that will be watching

341
00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:47.519
<v Speaker 9>and monitoring for violations. And Israel has signed an agreement

342
00:17:47.599 --> 00:17:51.599
<v Speaker 9>on the side with the United States, which in essence,

343
00:17:51.759 --> 00:17:57.119
<v Speaker 9>Washington is giving Israel backing for any major violations of

344
00:17:57.160 --> 00:18:00.599
<v Speaker 9>the deal that are imminent or critical threats and giving

345
00:18:00.640 --> 00:18:04.119
<v Speaker 9>Israel backing to go in and attack Hasbola that is

346
00:18:04.240 --> 00:18:07.160
<v Speaker 9>across Lebanon, so it could be in southern Bay route,

347
00:18:07.319 --> 00:18:11.640
<v Speaker 9>could be entire the Balbec Valley, or Southern Lebanon is

348
00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:14.400
<v Speaker 9>all very concerned. You know, it does not want his

349
00:18:14.480 --> 00:18:16.640
<v Speaker 9>Wola to come back into this area like it did

350
00:18:17.119 --> 00:18:17.960
<v Speaker 9>twenty years ago.

351
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:20.519
<v Speaker 1>Wait, did I just I'm not sure if I just

352
00:18:20.559 --> 00:18:23.960
<v Speaker 1>heard you right? So if even if there's a cease fire,

353
00:18:24.160 --> 00:18:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Israel could still fire on Hesbola positions.

354
00:18:28.599 --> 00:18:32.039
<v Speaker 9>That's right. It Bola violates the deal. Oh okay, okay,

355
00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:36.079
<v Speaker 9>going that, Yes, they violate the deal. They look like

356
00:18:36.119 --> 00:18:36.880
<v Speaker 9>they're coming in.

357
00:18:37.200 --> 00:18:39.960
<v Speaker 1>I got you, okay, all right, Well, hopefully next time

358
00:18:39.960 --> 00:18:41.839
<v Speaker 1>we talked we'll have better news.

359
00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:44.599
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, it's we'll keep our fingers starts welling.

360
00:18:44.920 --> 00:18:45.720
<v Speaker 6>It's good news.

361
00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:49.160
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, all right, so for the next four hours, okay, texting.

362

<v Speaker 10>The US National Retail Federation forecasts that winter holiday sales

366
00:19:03.319 --> 00:19:06.880
<v Speaker 10>will reach almost one trillion dollars in November and December,

367
00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:09.640
<v Speaker 10>but the rate of spending growth is expected to be

368
00:19:09.680 --> 00:19:12.519
<v Speaker 10>the slowest the country scene since twenty eighteen.

369
00:19:12.759 --> 00:19:15.559
<v Speaker 1>Sally Patterson says consumers are being more careful with their

370
00:19:15.599 --> 00:19:18.720
<v Speaker 1>spending and will be hunting for deals. Target says it

371

373
00:19:25.680 --> 00:19:28.079
<v Speaker 1>of nearly two dozen people in South LA for alleged

374
00:19:28.200 --> 00:19:32.240
<v Speaker 1>illegal gambling, drug possession, and gun violations. The LAPED announced

375
00:19:32.319 --> 00:19:34.880
<v Speaker 1>yesterday a warrant was served last week at an address

376
00:19:34.920 --> 00:19:38.119
<v Speaker 1>on Figaroa Street in Your Century. They say investigators found

377
00:19:38.119 --> 00:19:41.119
<v Speaker 1>gambling machines and illegal drugs, while two guns were recovered

378
00:19:41.160 --> 00:19:43.599
<v Speaker 1>during a search. Most of the twenty two people busted

379
00:19:43.640 --> 00:19:47.839
<v Speaker 1>were given citations and released. California may step in if

380
00:19:47.880 --> 00:19:51.519
<v Speaker 1>the President elect should kill electric vehicle tax credits.

381
00:19:51.559 --> 00:19:54.039
<v Speaker 4>Governor Newsom says the state could create its own rebate

382
00:19:54.079 --> 00:19:58.200
<v Speaker 4>program to encourage zero emission vehicle purchases. Republican state Senator

383
00:19:58.279 --> 00:20:01.799
<v Speaker 4>Roger Niello disagrees, argued the market to decide on its own.

384
00:20:01.960 --> 00:20:04.039
<v Speaker 3>That would be a much better way to handle it,

385
00:20:04.119 --> 00:20:08.039
<v Speaker 3>as opposed to exhausting state resources to fund that.

386
00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:10.480
<v Speaker 4>Newsom says the program could be modeled on the state's

387
00:20:10.519 --> 00:20:13.880
<v Speaker 4>old clean Vehicle rebate program, which funded nearly six hundred

388

<v Speaker 1>Greg Abbott and lawmakers in Eagle Pass to talk about

392
00:20:27.759 --> 00:20:30.839
<v Speaker 1>the border situation. Holman's also expected to take part in

393
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:33.680
<v Speaker 1>an event in Star County on land acquired by the

394
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:37.799
<v Speaker 1>State of Texas for additional border wall construction. The General

398
00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:52.759
<v Speaker 1>for a robotic spacecraft to visit an asteroid. The plan

399
00:20:52.880 --> 00:20:55.480
<v Speaker 1>is for the spacecraft to rendezvous with the asteroid in

400
00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:58.480
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty nine. The asteroid is about as wide as

401
00:20:58.480 --> 00:21:01.720
<v Speaker 1>the Empire State Building is to The agency says if

402
00:21:01.759 --> 00:21:04.480
<v Speaker 1>it were to hit Earth, it would cause wholesale destruction

403
00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:09.720
<v Speaker 1>hundreds of miles from the crash site. Warren Buffett has

404
00:21:09.720 --> 00:21:13.279

00:21:23.599 --> 00:21:26.039
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and six to start giving away his fortune.

409
00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:29.240
<v Speaker 1>He's worth almost one hundred and forty eight billion dollars.

410
00:21:29.400 --> 00:21:35.079

422
00:22:08.720 --> 00:22:10.079
<v Speaker 1>job of making it look real.

423
00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:12.960
<v Speaker 2>It's not. And as Rich and.

00:22:29.240 --> 00:22:32.079
<v Speaker 1>for these kinds of things because it just ticks me off.

431
00:22:32.119 --> 00:22:35.640
<v Speaker 1>They look legit and they're not. So if if and doubt,

432
00:22:35.960 --> 00:22:41.279
<v Speaker 1>contact the party that's contacting you, but on their official websites,

433
00:22:41.319 --> 00:22:44.400
<v Speaker 1>their official phone numbers don't click through to stuff. A

434
00:22:44.440 --> 00:22:47.160
<v Speaker 1>small plane has hit a tree and crashed in Fullerton.

435
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:49.200
<v Speaker 1>The crash happened as the pilot tried to make an

436
00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:53.759
<v Speaker 1>emergency landing at Fullerton Municipal Airport yesterday afternoon. Two people

437
00:22:53.799 --> 00:22:57.359
<v Speaker 1>on board have moderate injuries. A federal judge says a

438
00:22:57.440 --> 00:23:01.279
<v Speaker 1>San Jose State volleyball player can play in the upcoming

439
00:23:01.319 --> 00:23:05.640
<v Speaker 1>women's Mountain West Conference tournament even though she's allegedly transgender.

440
00:23:06.039 --> 00:23:10.079
<v Speaker 1>Nine players have sued challenging the conference's rules that allow

441
00:23:10.160 --> 00:23:13.839
<v Speaker 1>transgender athletes to play. They claim it could be unsafe

442
00:23:13.880 --> 00:23:16.839
<v Speaker 1>and unfair. Four teams have forfeited their games against San

444
00:23:20.880 --> 00:23:24.160
<v Speaker 1>to slap new tariffs on imported goods from Mexico, Canada,

445
00:23:24.200 --> 00:23:26.839
<v Speaker 1>and China. Trump said in a post on truth Social

446
00:23:26.880 --> 00:23:29.960
<v Speaker 1>that his administration will impose twenty five percent tariffs on

447
00:23:30.039 --> 00:23:33.240
<v Speaker 1>all Canadian and Mexican goods to boost border security and

448
00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:35.799
<v Speaker 1>crack down on the flow of fentanyl. The tariffs on

449
00:23:35.960 --> 00:23:38.880
<v Speaker 1>Chinese goods will be ten percent on top of tariffs

450
00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:42.839
<v Speaker 1>already imposed during Trump's first term. At six o five,

451
00:23:43.359 --> 00:23:46.000
<v Speaker 1>iight's handle on the news. President elect Trump is off

452
00:23:46.039 --> 00:23:48.240
<v Speaker 1>the hook when it comes to classified documents and alleged

453
00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:49.759
<v Speaker 1>efforts to overturn an election.

454
00:23:49.920 --> 00:23:51.519
<v Speaker 2>But is it for good?

455
00:23:52.799 --> 00:23:53.039
<v Speaker 6>Right now?

456
00:23:53.119 --> 00:23:57.720
<v Speaker 1>Let's say good morning to mad's national Ambassador Tara Repka Flores.

457
00:23:57.759 --> 00:23:59.880
<v Speaker 2>Good morning, Tara morning.

458
00:24:00.640 --> 00:24:03.559
<v Speaker 1>So we know that the holiday season is notorious for

459
00:24:03.680 --> 00:24:07.759
<v Speaker 1>parties and holiday celebrations, and with that people are drinking.

460
00:24:07.759 --> 00:24:10.720
<v Speaker 1>And there's nothing wrong with holiday celebrations. The problem comes

461
00:24:11.119 --> 00:24:13.960
<v Speaker 1>and it's potentially deadly when people go to parties and

462
00:24:14.000 --> 00:24:18.720
<v Speaker 1>then get behind the wheels. So Thanksgiving is said to

463
00:24:18.720 --> 00:24:21.400
<v Speaker 1>be one of the most dangerous holidays on the roadways.

464
00:24:21.720 --> 00:24:24.559
<v Speaker 1>When is it most dangerous, TARRA and how bad is

465
00:24:24.599 --> 00:24:26.000
<v Speaker 1>the problem?

466
00:24:26.920 --> 00:24:29.920
<v Speaker 7>I think that Wednesday evening is usually one of the

467
00:24:30.519 --> 00:24:33.559
<v Speaker 7>most challenging times. In twenty twenty two, there were one

468
00:24:33.640 --> 00:24:38.519
<v Speaker 7>hundred and eighty four fatal accidents on the evening before Thanksgiving.

469
00:24:39.160 --> 00:24:42.319
<v Speaker 7>So MAD just really wants to remind everyone to plan ahead,

470
00:24:42.440 --> 00:24:46.119
<v Speaker 7>make safety a priority. Plan for a sober driver or

471
00:24:46.160 --> 00:24:49.799
<v Speaker 7>to take an alternate method of transportation.

472
00:24:50.319 --> 00:24:53.759
<v Speaker 1>Okay, And the problem on that Wednesday evening is so

473
00:24:53.839 --> 00:24:56.279
<v Speaker 1>bad they've even given it a name, and it's kind

474
00:24:56.279 --> 00:24:56.440
<v Speaker 1>of a.

475
00:24:56.440 --> 00:24:57.400
<v Speaker 2>Scary one.

476
00:24:59.119 --> 00:24:59.519
<v Speaker 6>It is.

477
00:25:01.400 --> 00:25:05.799
<v Speaker 7>They call it blackout Wednesday. It is a very dangerous

478
00:25:05.839 --> 00:25:08.359
<v Speaker 7>time to be on the road and it really requires

479
00:25:08.400 --> 00:25:12.400
<v Speaker 7>all of us to be vigilant. Mad definitely recommends that

480
00:25:12.480 --> 00:25:16.160
<v Speaker 7>if you see someone who seems to be driving impaired,

481
00:25:16.200 --> 00:25:19.400
<v Speaker 7>that you call immediately. You could save someone's life. And

482
00:25:19.720 --> 00:25:23.440
<v Speaker 7>again we asked everyone to plan ahead, never drive impaired.

483
00:25:23.480 --> 00:25:24.440
<v Speaker 7>It's so important.

484
00:25:25.519 --> 00:25:30.200
<v Speaker 1>And Tara, a drunk driver had a tragic and life

485
00:25:30.319 --> 00:25:32.319
<v Speaker 1>altering effect on your life.

486
00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:34.079
<v Speaker 2>Can you share that with us?

487
00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:39.440
<v Speaker 7>Yeah? Absolutely. My son Alex Flrez was thirteen years old

488
00:25:39.519 --> 00:25:41.960
<v Speaker 7>and in the eighth grade. He was walking to school

489
00:25:42.000 --> 00:25:46.400
<v Speaker 7>on a Monday morning and a parent from the same

490
00:25:46.440 --> 00:25:49.799
<v Speaker 7>school was driving her kids to school. All three of

491
00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:52.200
<v Speaker 7>her kids were in the car and she hit Alec

492
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:57.160
<v Speaker 7>and he did not survive his injuries. Her blood alcohol

493
00:25:57.519 --> 00:26:01.720
<v Speaker 7>was more than three times the legal limit when she

494
00:26:01.839 --> 00:26:04.839
<v Speaker 7>was driving her kids to school, and you know, we

495
00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:06.160
<v Speaker 7>lost our son that day.

496
00:26:06.640 --> 00:26:09.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm so sorry. And how long ago was that?

497
00:26:10.160 --> 00:26:13.559
<v Speaker 7>It was in twenty nineteen, Alex would be a freshman

498
00:26:13.599 --> 00:26:14.519
<v Speaker 7>in college this year.

499
00:26:16.279 --> 00:26:19.359
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, and I you take that tragedy and

500
00:26:19.400 --> 00:26:21.359
<v Speaker 1>then you go and try to help others. I mean

501
00:26:21.400 --> 00:26:25.079
<v Speaker 1>that speaks volumes about you, Trek, because I just can't

502
00:26:25.119 --> 00:26:27.559
<v Speaker 1>even imagine going through what you have.

503
00:26:27.759 --> 00:26:32.119
<v Speaker 7>Well, thank you for that. I think that I'm trying

504
00:26:32.160 --> 00:26:35.640
<v Speaker 7>to honor alex memory and you know, make sure that

505
00:26:35.960 --> 00:26:39.000
<v Speaker 7>no one else has to experience that we have. But

506
00:26:39.240 --> 00:26:42.519
<v Speaker 7>I can't do it alone. I need everybody's help, and

507
00:26:42.720 --> 00:26:47.200
<v Speaker 7>it's just very important. It's very important that everyone makes

508
00:26:47.200 --> 00:26:52.519
<v Speaker 7>a plan before their their festivities, you know, during the

509
00:26:52.559 --> 00:26:56.920
<v Speaker 7>holiday even hosts can really play a really active role

510
00:26:57.039 --> 00:27:00.680
<v Speaker 7>in keeping everyone safe. You know, offer your guess a

511
00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:03.440
<v Speaker 7>place to stay if they're going to be drinking, or

512
00:27:03.519 --> 00:27:06.160
<v Speaker 7>make sure that they have arranged for a ride home,

513
00:27:06.599 --> 00:27:08.559
<v Speaker 7>that they have a sober driver, or that they are

514
00:27:08.640 --> 00:27:11.119
<v Speaker 7>using a ride share service or something like that. So

515
00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:13.920
<v Speaker 7>it takes all of us to really plan and be

516
00:27:14.079 --> 00:27:17.000
<v Speaker 7>active in making sure that we're all safe as holiday season.

517
00:27:17.240 --> 00:27:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and you mentioned the party host, which I think

518
00:27:19.119 --> 00:27:21.680
<v Speaker 1>was really is really key because I mean, we're all

519
00:27:21.720 --> 00:27:24.319
<v Speaker 1>there to have a good time, and I've hosted several parties.

520
00:27:24.359 --> 00:27:27.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you want people to be enjoying themselves and

521
00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:30.519
<v Speaker 1>celebrating and cutting loose a little bit, but then also

522
00:27:31.000 --> 00:27:33.640
<v Speaker 1>keep an eye on them, you know, watch them and

523
00:27:33.680 --> 00:27:36.039
<v Speaker 1>if you see that somebody's had a couple of drinks

524
00:27:36.039 --> 00:27:36.720
<v Speaker 1>and you go, you.

525
00:27:36.680 --> 00:27:38.799
<v Speaker 2>Know what, let's get you an ober or.

526
00:27:38.839 --> 00:27:40.400
<v Speaker 1>I love your idea of just saying, hey, why don't

527
00:27:40.440 --> 00:27:42.000
<v Speaker 1>you just crash here and drive home in the morning.

528
00:27:42.640 --> 00:27:42.880
<v Speaker 9>Yeah.

529
00:27:42.920 --> 00:27:46.240
<v Speaker 7>Absolutely. Party hosts even can the ride shares even have

530
00:27:46.480 --> 00:27:48.559
<v Speaker 7>where you can provide a link and you can pay

531
00:27:48.559 --> 00:27:51.400
<v Speaker 7>for people's rides and you can do that in advance.

532
00:27:51.599 --> 00:27:54.039
<v Speaker 7>So I encourage people to look into that too. And

533
00:27:54.119 --> 00:27:56.799
<v Speaker 7>for corporate holiday parties, I think that's a great idea

534
00:27:56.839 --> 00:27:57.200
<v Speaker 7>as well.

535
00:27:57.400 --> 00:28:01.400
<v Speaker 1>Okay, and it's not only the drivers who have been

536
00:28:01.519 --> 00:28:05.559
<v Speaker 1>drinking who are at risk. It what should everyone remember

537
00:28:05.599 --> 00:28:07.759
<v Speaker 1>when they are driving during the holidays, even if you

538
00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:08.559
<v Speaker 1>haven't been drinking.

539
00:28:09.799 --> 00:28:13.599
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, stay vigilant, and you know, call and report impaired

540
00:28:13.680 --> 00:28:16.119
<v Speaker 7>drivers if you if you see someone who seems like

541
00:28:16.160 --> 00:28:19.920
<v Speaker 7>they're in paired, call an alert law enforcement right away

542
00:28:19.960 --> 00:28:21.920
<v Speaker 7>so they can try and get that person off the road.

543
00:28:21.960 --> 00:28:22.839
<v Speaker 7>It's really important.

544
00:28:23.079 --> 00:28:25.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know I was driving one time Tara, and

545
00:28:25.759 --> 00:28:28.559
<v Speaker 1>it was I was on my way from Sacramento up

546
00:28:28.599 --> 00:28:32.720
<v Speaker 1>to Medford and there was somebody on the freeway, so

547
00:28:33.400 --> 00:28:36.400
<v Speaker 1>obviously just weaving and weaving, and it was freaking me out,

548
00:28:36.440 --> 00:28:38.480
<v Speaker 1>and I didn't I was scared to pass them. I

549
00:28:38.519 --> 00:28:40.279
<v Speaker 1>didn't want to get off the road, but I wanted

550
00:28:40.279 --> 00:28:41.839
<v Speaker 1>to like keep an eye on them. And I called

551
00:28:41.920 --> 00:28:44.079
<v Speaker 1>nine one one, and you know, they stayed on the

552
00:28:44.079 --> 00:28:45.759
<v Speaker 1>phone with me, and I'm like, okay, we're crossing, you know,

553
00:28:45.799 --> 00:28:47.680
<v Speaker 1>we're passing here, and that kind of stuff. They stayed

554
00:28:47.720 --> 00:28:50.599
<v Speaker 1>on the line with me so they could get to

555
00:28:50.759 --> 00:28:53.240
<v Speaker 1>the person and get them off the road. Because it

556
00:28:53.279 --> 00:28:55.839
<v Speaker 1>was really a dangerous situation. And I would imagine, and

557
00:28:55.880 --> 00:28:58.319
<v Speaker 1>that was during the day, like it happened at night

558
00:28:58.559 --> 00:29:00.960
<v Speaker 1>or something like that, when everybodybody else is out partying,

559
00:29:01.000 --> 00:29:05.880
<v Speaker 1>I can imagine it's much more dangerous. The prevention part

560
00:29:05.920 --> 00:29:09.759
<v Speaker 1>is a big part of keeping people safe. And you know,

561
00:29:09.799 --> 00:29:11.960
<v Speaker 1>it's not always easy to talk to your kids about

562
00:29:12.000 --> 00:29:13.960
<v Speaker 1>these kinds of things. But how should parents talk to

563
00:29:14.000 --> 00:29:15.559
<v Speaker 1>their kids about drinking and driving.

564
00:29:16.799 --> 00:29:19.799
<v Speaker 7>I think parents should have open and honest conversations with

565
00:29:19.880 --> 00:29:25.319
<v Speaker 7>their children before Thanksgiving about making safe choices and modeling

566
00:29:25.319 --> 00:29:30.599
<v Speaker 7>good choices, right, show your kids how to you know,

567
00:29:30.640 --> 00:29:33.440
<v Speaker 7>how to arrange for a sober driver and talk to

568
00:29:33.480 --> 00:29:35.559
<v Speaker 7>them about it, talk about what you're doing so that

569
00:29:35.680 --> 00:29:38.160
<v Speaker 7>they have they have a good example of how to

570
00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:38.440
<v Speaker 7>do that.

571
00:29:38.880 --> 00:29:39.160
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

572
00:29:39.160 --> 00:29:41.279
<v Speaker 1>And if you're not sure how to start a conversation,

573
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:43.680
<v Speaker 1>Mad has a handbook out there to help you out.

574
00:29:44.759 --> 00:29:47.039
<v Speaker 7>They do The Power of parent caanbook is a great

575
00:29:47.079 --> 00:29:48.000
<v Speaker 7>resource for parents.

576
00:29:48.119 --> 00:29:50.839
<v Speaker 2>Okay. And do they get that at the on Mad's website?

577
00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:51.759
<v Speaker 6>Yes?

578
00:29:52.000 --> 00:29:54.119
<v Speaker 1>Okay, and that's just is it mad dot org or

579
00:29:54.160 --> 00:29:57.799
<v Speaker 1>mad dot com? Yes, Mad dot org. All right, And

580
00:29:58.119 --> 00:30:01.319
<v Speaker 1>so before you get behind the weel this Thanksgiving holiday

581
00:30:01.440 --> 00:30:04.480
<v Speaker 1>and all through the long holidays, we asked that you

582
00:30:04.519 --> 00:30:07.680
<v Speaker 1>think about Tara, how profoundly her life has been affected

583
00:30:07.720 --> 00:30:10.559
<v Speaker 1>by drunk drivers. Think about your family, your friends, your

584
00:30:10.559 --> 00:30:14.079
<v Speaker 1>loved ones, and just don't do it. Tara, thank you

585
00:30:14.160 --> 00:30:16.480
<v Speaker 1>so much for your time, and again, I'm so sorry

586
00:30:16.519 --> 00:30:20.440
<v Speaker 1>for your loss, but I am inspired by how you're

587
00:30:20.599 --> 00:30:21.799
<v Speaker 1>now turning around and helping.

588
00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:24.519
<v Speaker 7>So thank you so much. We're we're so happy to

589
00:30:24.559 --> 00:30:27.480
<v Speaker 7>be here and I'm glad that you're reminding people about

590
00:30:27.480 --> 00:30:28.960
<v Speaker 7>how to be safe this holiday season.

591
00:30:29.119 --> 00:30:32.559
<v Speaker 1>All right, Thanks again, Tara, have a safe and happy Thanksgiving.

592
00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:33.839
<v Speaker 7>Thanks you too.

593
00:30:33.920 --> 00:30:35.160
<v Speaker 2>All right, Let's get back.

594
00:30:35.079 --> 00:30:36.519
<v Speaker 1>To some of the stories coming out of the KFI

595
00:30:36.559 --> 00:30:39.519
<v Speaker 1>twenty four hour newsroom. LA City schools have asked for

596
00:30:39.559 --> 00:30:41.079
<v Speaker 1>help after another break in.

597
00:30:41.319 --> 00:30:44.599
<v Speaker 4>Superintendent Alberto Carvaljo says the district has been targeted by

598
00:30:44.599 --> 00:30:47.720
<v Speaker 4>one hundred and seventy one incidents of burglary and vandalism

599
00:30:47.759 --> 00:30:51.200
<v Speaker 4>just in this semester. The latest happened at Wadsworth Elementary

600
00:30:51.240 --> 00:30:54.279
<v Speaker 4>in South LA. It was broken into and heavily damaged.

601
00:30:54.440 --> 00:30:57.079
<v Speaker 4>Garvaldo called a news conference outside the school and says

602
00:30:57.079 --> 00:30:59.640
<v Speaker 4>he's angry because Wadsworth serves what he calls some of

603
00:30:59.640 --> 00:31:02.960
<v Speaker 4>the most vulnerable and fragile students in LA. He's asked

604
00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:05.799
<v Speaker 4>anyone with info on the Wadsworth case to call police.

605
00:31:06.119 --> 00:31:07.720
<v Speaker 4>Michael Monks KFI News.

606
00:31:07.759 --> 00:31:10.440
<v Speaker 1>A man's been arrested in connection with an unprovoked attack

607
00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:13.319
<v Speaker 1>on a homeless woman in Santa Monica. The man's accused

608
00:31:13.319 --> 00:31:16.440
<v Speaker 1>of strangling the woman back on September twenty second. She

609
00:31:16.680 --> 00:31:19.640
<v Speaker 1>also suffered trauma to her face. Witnesses say the woman,

610
00:31:19.680 --> 00:31:22.359
<v Speaker 1>who was found in an alley, was repeatedly kicked and

611
00:31:22.480 --> 00:31:24.680
<v Speaker 1>punched while she was on the ground. The man's been

612
00:31:24.720 --> 00:31:28.200
<v Speaker 1>charged with attempted murder. He's doing court December eighteenth. The

613
00:31:28.240 --> 00:31:29.880
<v Speaker 1>search is on for a woman who walked away from

614
00:31:29.880 --> 00:31:32.720
<v Speaker 1>the female community re entry program in Santa Fe Springs.

615
00:31:33.000 --> 00:31:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Authority say Christina Hammond was able to remove her ankle

616
00:31:36.720 --> 00:31:40.119
<v Speaker 1>monitor yesterday and left it near her bed. Security video

617
00:31:40.119 --> 00:31:42.039
<v Speaker 1>shows the thirty four year old woman walking out of

618
00:31:42.039 --> 00:31:44.839
<v Speaker 1>the facility and climbing over a fence. She was wearing

619
00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:48.279
<v Speaker 1>a gray jacket, gray sweatpants, gloves, and was carrying a

620
00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:52.559
<v Speaker 1>blue bag. Hammond is serving a five year sentence for assault.

621
00:31:53.119 --> 00:31:55.960
<v Speaker 1>So now they're saying to heat it up, not I

622
00:31:56.039 --> 00:31:56.519
<v Speaker 1>sit down.

623
00:31:56.599 --> 00:31:58.559
<v Speaker 3>A new study shows a hot bath is better for

624
00:31:58.599 --> 00:32:01.720
<v Speaker 3>an athlete's body than an ice bath after exercise. It's

625
00:32:01.759 --> 00:32:04.519
<v Speaker 3>from a report presented at the recent Integrated Physiology of

626
00:32:04.559 --> 00:32:07.960
<v Speaker 3>Exercise conference in Pennsylvania. The study's lead author says, when

627
00:32:07.960 --> 00:32:11.240
<v Speaker 3>you exercise intensely, muscle fibers are damaged in the hot

628
00:32:11.240 --> 00:32:14.680
<v Speaker 3>water increases blood flow and that helps muscles repair themselves

629
00:32:14.720 --> 00:32:17.559
<v Speaker 3>and get stronger. Other studies show ice water can relieve

630
00:32:17.599 --> 00:32:20.200
<v Speaker 3>muscle soreness and can be best if there is an injury.

645
00:33:07.400 --> 00:33:10.359

646
00:33:10.359 --> 00:33:13.559
<v Speaker 1>to travel for the Thanksgiving holiday. That's about one point

647
00:33:13.599 --> 00:33:17.559
<v Speaker 1>seven million more than last year. Southwest Airline says it

648

649

653
00:33:32.640 --> 00:33:35.400
<v Speaker 1>from lawyers and two relatives yesterday, then said he needed

654
00:33:35.440 --> 00:33:38.839
<v Speaker 1>time and rescheduled a hearing that was initially set for

655
00:33:38.880 --> 00:33:43.759
<v Speaker 1>December eleventh to January thirtieth. Democratic challenger Derek Tran has

656
00:33:43.759 --> 00:33:46.799
<v Speaker 1>declared victory in the race for the forty fifth Congressional

657
00:33:46.960 --> 00:33:51.519
<v Speaker 1>district seat three weeks after the election. Trans lead is

658
00:33:51.880 --> 00:33:54.960
<v Speaker 1>just five hundred and eighty one votes out of almost

659
00:33:55.000 --> 00:33:58.480
<v Speaker 1>three hundred and fifteen thousand votes counted. That's a point

660
00:33:58.599 --> 00:34:02.640
<v Speaker 1>two percent lead. Tran is running down seat Republican Congresswoman

661

662
00:34:05.519 --> 00:34:08.880
<v Speaker 1>How to Money on KFI. It's Joel Large Scarred Joel.

663
00:34:08.920 --> 00:34:11.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm watching my doze. It's still up.

664
00:34:12.440 --> 00:34:12.920
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

665
00:34:13.079 --> 00:34:17.719
<v Speaker 5>No, I mean everybody who is into cryptocurrency right now,

666
00:34:17.800 --> 00:34:22.199
<v Speaker 5>they're probably pretty happy with themselves. And I get it,

667
00:34:22.239 --> 00:34:25.639
<v Speaker 5>like it's nice to see your investment go up in value.

668
00:34:25.760 --> 00:34:28.320
<v Speaker 5>I still I still just want to caution you, Amy,

669
00:34:28.360 --> 00:34:30.760
<v Speaker 5>and want to caution everyone else out there, like do

670
00:34:30.840 --> 00:34:33.079
<v Speaker 5>you remember what happened with the Super Bowl twenty twenty two,

671
00:34:33.199 --> 00:34:36.400
<v Speaker 5>and like all those crypto commercials and then the subsequent

672
00:34:36.480 --> 00:34:37.199
<v Speaker 5>crypto winter.

673
00:34:37.440 --> 00:34:39.519
<v Speaker 2>Just just do be careful.

674
00:34:39.559 --> 00:34:40.840
<v Speaker 5>Don't have too much exposure there.

675
00:34:41.079 --> 00:34:41.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I don't.

676
00:34:41.880 --> 00:34:44.760
<v Speaker 1>And just so I'm sure that you are very worried

677
00:34:44.760 --> 00:34:47.920
<v Speaker 1>about me, right, but I only have like two hundred dollars.

678
00:34:47.960 --> 00:34:49.480
<v Speaker 1>I only have like two hundred dollars, and I'm still

679
00:34:49.519 --> 00:34:52.599
<v Speaker 1>down because I put the money in and then it

680
00:34:52.639 --> 00:34:55.719
<v Speaker 1>immediately I think we headed into that crypto winter when

681
00:34:55.760 --> 00:34:57.920
<v Speaker 1>it was like worth two cents of share or something.

682
00:34:58.079 --> 00:35:00.920
<v Speaker 1>But it's getting close to what my original investment was.

683
00:35:01.440 --> 00:35:05.039
<v Speaker 5>Well, if we would dial back like twelve years and

684
00:35:05.239 --> 00:35:07.519
<v Speaker 5>like going the way back machine kind of thing, and

685
00:35:07.559 --> 00:35:10.599
<v Speaker 5>you had told all of us that this cryptocurrency thing

686
00:35:10.679 --> 00:35:12.679
<v Speaker 5>and then that all the subsequent fads and stuff that

687
00:35:12.719 --> 00:35:14.800
<v Speaker 5>were attached to it was going to happen, and that

688
00:35:14.880 --> 00:35:16.880
<v Speaker 5>people were actually going to say, this is a viable

689
00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:20.199
<v Speaker 5>asset class, and I'm excited about like investing in it for.

690
00:35:20.159 --> 00:35:20.840
<v Speaker 6>The long term.

691
00:35:21.559 --> 00:35:23.760
<v Speaker 5>I think we all would have laughed probably twelve years ago.

692
00:35:23.800 --> 00:35:27.039
<v Speaker 5>The fact that it has staying power is fascinating, and

693
00:35:27.079 --> 00:35:30.320
<v Speaker 5>I do think there's some there are some underlying reasons

694
00:35:30.320 --> 00:35:32.800
<v Speaker 5>in particular for something like bitcoin, but I just want

695
00:35:32.800 --> 00:35:35.679
<v Speaker 5>people to be really careful because it still is kind

696
00:35:35.679 --> 00:35:38.920
<v Speaker 5>of untested in many ways. It's still relatively new, and

697
00:35:38.960 --> 00:35:42.760
<v Speaker 5>you can't take like three years worth of data and extrapolated,

698
00:35:43.039 --> 00:35:45.159
<v Speaker 5>unlike the stock market, where we have a lot more

699
00:35:45.280 --> 00:35:47.639
<v Speaker 5>data and we have kind of underlying valuations that make

700
00:35:47.719 --> 00:35:50.480
<v Speaker 5>sense for companies that produce products and services that we use.

701
00:35:50.719 --> 00:35:53.320
<v Speaker 1>Yes, so be very careful. Here's something else to be

702
00:35:53.400 --> 00:35:56.400
<v Speaker 1>very careful about. Holidays are coming up. People may do

703
00:35:56.480 --> 00:35:58.719
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of overspending, which I know you already

704
00:35:58.760 --> 00:36:04.000
<v Speaker 1>recommend against. But the credit cards that they're offering, their

705
00:36:04.039 --> 00:36:06.599
<v Speaker 1>interest rates are ginormous.

706
00:36:07.599 --> 00:36:10.519
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah, So these are store cards in particular, right, Like,

707
00:36:10.639 --> 00:36:12.880
<v Speaker 5>I'm not an anti credit card guy. I think that

708
00:36:13.039 --> 00:36:16.360
<v Speaker 5>credit cards can if you use them well, Like they

709
00:36:16.360 --> 00:36:19.880
<v Speaker 5>can help you earn rewards, they can help you like

710
00:36:20.360 --> 00:36:23.079
<v Speaker 5>just I really like credit cards for people who pay

711
00:36:23.119 --> 00:36:25.599
<v Speaker 5>them off on time and in full every single month,

712
00:36:25.599 --> 00:36:27.880
<v Speaker 5>and I've been able to get free flights or two

713
00:36:27.880 --> 00:36:30.440
<v Speaker 5>percent cash back on other purchases, and so I like them.

714
00:36:30.440 --> 00:36:33.519
<v Speaker 5>But these store cards are the worst kind of credit card,

715
00:36:33.559 --> 00:36:35.679
<v Speaker 5>and they're the ones that I want people to mostly avoid.

716
00:36:36.079 --> 00:36:37.840
<v Speaker 5>So there are a couple of exceptions. I think the

717
00:36:37.880 --> 00:36:41.039
<v Speaker 5>Amazon and the Target credit cards are a little bit different,

718
00:36:41.079 --> 00:36:43.679
<v Speaker 5>and especially if you are hyper loyal to one of

719
00:36:43.719 --> 00:36:47.320
<v Speaker 5>those retailers. I think getting that credit card can make

720
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:49.920
<v Speaker 5>sense because you get five percent cash back whenever you

721
00:36:49.920 --> 00:36:53.000
<v Speaker 5>spend those at those retailers. I've got the Amazon card

722
00:36:53.039 --> 00:36:55.039
<v Speaker 5>and I use it just to shop at Amazon. But

723
00:36:55.440 --> 00:36:57.559
<v Speaker 5>all of these other store cards. It's kind of crazy

724
00:36:57.599 --> 00:36:59.800
<v Speaker 5>when the while the FED is cutting interest rates, these

725
00:37:00.199 --> 00:37:02.920
<v Speaker 5>cards are saying we're gonna raise interest rates on you.

726
00:37:03.159 --> 00:37:05.519
<v Speaker 5>So instead of like twenty two percent interest rate, a

727
00:37:05.559 --> 00:37:07.599
<v Speaker 5>lot of these store cards are charging thirty five, thirty

728
00:37:07.719 --> 00:37:13.320
<v Speaker 5>six percent interest five. Yeah, it's it's staggering. And the

729
00:37:13.400 --> 00:37:16.239
<v Speaker 5>other thing is that they might say, hey, there's a

730
00:37:16.320 --> 00:37:19.360
<v Speaker 5>zero percent intro offer, and you might say, no brainer,

731
00:37:19.599 --> 00:37:21.920
<v Speaker 5>let me get this gap card, put three hundred bucks

732
00:37:21.920 --> 00:37:23.800
<v Speaker 5>on it, and then I'm not gonna have to pay

733
00:37:23.800 --> 00:37:25.719
<v Speaker 5>any interest on it for like twelve months or something

734
00:37:25.760 --> 00:37:29.079
<v Speaker 5>like that. Well, many of these cards charge something it's

735
00:37:29.079 --> 00:37:32.159
<v Speaker 5>called deferred interest, so that means you're gonna be retroactively

736
00:37:32.280 --> 00:37:36.519
<v Speaker 5>charged interest for the entire time span going back to

737
00:37:36.639 --> 00:37:39.199
<v Speaker 5>day one of the promotional period. If you don't pay

738
00:37:39.239 --> 00:37:41.840
<v Speaker 5>it off before the end of that promo period, so

739
00:37:42.079 --> 00:37:44.119
<v Speaker 5>a lot. It sounds good on the front end and

740
00:37:44.159 --> 00:37:47.079
<v Speaker 5>then it can leave you like hurting in a big way.

741
00:37:46.920 --> 00:37:47.599
<v Speaker 9>On the back end.

742
00:37:47.840 --> 00:37:50.079
<v Speaker 2>Read the fine print most definitely.

743
00:37:50.119 --> 00:37:52.039
<v Speaker 5>And just the store cards, like what you're gonna get

744
00:37:52.119 --> 00:37:54.360
<v Speaker 5>ten percent off your order today? You're gonna save twenty

745
00:37:54.440 --> 00:37:57.239
<v Speaker 5>or thirty bucks? Like, it's just not worth it. There

746
00:37:57.239 --> 00:37:59.440
<v Speaker 5>are so much better credit cards out there with better

747
00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:02.039
<v Speaker 5>offers and better sign up bonuses. Like I just don't

748
00:38:02.039 --> 00:38:03.280
<v Speaker 5>want you to mess with store cards.

749
00:38:03.599 --> 00:38:06.159
<v Speaker 1>Okay, there you go from Joel, do not mess with

750
00:38:06.199 --> 00:38:09.199
<v Speaker 1>store cards. Here's something else that can be a mess,

751
00:38:09.239 --> 00:38:12.039
<v Speaker 1>and that's making returns. And I think we talked about

752
00:38:12.039 --> 00:38:16.119
<v Speaker 1>this before that some companies are letting you not return

753
00:38:16.159 --> 00:38:18.840
<v Speaker 1>your item, but you still get the credit back for it.

754
00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:21.719
<v Speaker 1>But there are some things you need to know about

755
00:38:21.719 --> 00:38:23.760
<v Speaker 1>this because it's not just a flat policy.

756
00:38:24.320 --> 00:38:27.199
<v Speaker 5>Sure, yeah, so this is interesting, like we're there were

757
00:38:27.199 --> 00:38:29.679
<v Speaker 5>some recent stats from this company called return pro and

758
00:38:29.719 --> 00:38:31.880
<v Speaker 5>I guess all they do is deal with returns and

759
00:38:31.920 --> 00:38:37.039
<v Speaker 5>they gather statistics on how retailers are processing returns and

760
00:38:37.159 --> 00:38:40.280
<v Speaker 5>they found that roughly sixty percent of retailers have an

761
00:38:40.320 --> 00:38:42.760
<v Speaker 5>internal policy, which means they don't tell us about it.

762
00:38:43.000 --> 00:38:45.880
<v Speaker 5>That allows us to keep some of the things that

763
00:38:45.960 --> 00:38:48.360
<v Speaker 5>we buy when we're trying to return them. And basically

764
00:38:48.360 --> 00:38:51.239
<v Speaker 5>what they're saying is that sorry, that that product's actually

765
00:38:51.239 --> 00:38:52.639
<v Speaker 5>pretty cheap. We're not going to be able to resell it.

766
00:38:52.679 --> 00:38:55.239
<v Speaker 5>There's nothing we can do if you return it, and

767
00:38:55.320 --> 00:38:58.000
<v Speaker 5>so we'll give you the money back and you can

768
00:38:58.079 --> 00:39:01.519
<v Speaker 5>keep it, don't bank on it. There are certain retailers

769
00:39:01.559 --> 00:39:04.639
<v Speaker 5>that are starting to say, m if you're a perpetual returner,

770
00:39:05.000 --> 00:39:07.760
<v Speaker 5>we are going to put the put the kaibash on

771
00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:10.800
<v Speaker 5>you being able to return things so frequently, so watch out.

772
00:39:10.840 --> 00:39:13.320
<v Speaker 5>There are certain companies saying, listen, if you are an

773
00:39:13.360 --> 00:39:15.800
<v Speaker 5>over returner, we're not okay with that.

774
00:39:16.039 --> 00:39:18.239
<v Speaker 1>So and it could change the policy. Like one time

775
00:39:18.239 --> 00:39:20.559
<v Speaker 1>when you return something, they may say, don't send it back.

776
00:39:20.599 --> 00:39:22.719
<v Speaker 1>The next time they may say, yeah, send it back.

777
00:39:23.000 --> 00:39:23.440
<v Speaker 9>That's right.

778
00:39:23.480 --> 00:39:25.519
<v Speaker 5>And then if you exactly and it's really hard to

779
00:39:25.519 --> 00:39:27.639
<v Speaker 5>tell on the front end, I think I want people

780
00:39:27.639 --> 00:39:30.199
<v Speaker 5>to know what the return policy is for the place

781
00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:33.599
<v Speaker 5>they're shopping and then and it varies, and it often

782
00:39:33.679 --> 00:39:37.519
<v Speaker 5>varies too during this time of year. Like return policies

783
00:39:37.719 --> 00:39:40.719
<v Speaker 5>often change, right, and there's a little more leeway given,

784
00:39:40.920 --> 00:39:45.079
<v Speaker 5>Like items purchased between now and Christmas Eve can be

785
00:39:45.119 --> 00:39:48.639
<v Speaker 5>returned sometimes through January fifteenth, sometimes through the end of January.

786
00:39:48.719 --> 00:39:50.079
<v Speaker 5>So you just have to be on it when it

787
00:39:50.079 --> 00:39:52.280
<v Speaker 5>comes to returns, or you might be holding onto stuff

788
00:39:52.280 --> 00:39:54.119
<v Speaker 5>and you might be out the money for things that

789
00:39:54.159 --> 00:39:55.679
<v Speaker 5>you thought you could return. You thought you had a

790
00:39:55.679 --> 00:39:57.679
<v Speaker 5>bigger window, but you might not actually have had that

791
00:39:57.679 --> 00:39:58.320
<v Speaker 5>bigger window.

792
00:39:58.519 --> 00:39:58.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

793
00:39:58.719 --> 00:40:00.639
<v Speaker 1>I ran into that when I got a a phone

794
00:40:00.719 --> 00:40:02.320
<v Speaker 1>charger and didn't return it in time.

795
00:40:03.199 --> 00:40:05.599
<v Speaker 5>And like, I think it's really important on the front

796
00:40:05.639 --> 00:40:08.679
<v Speaker 5>end to say, how serious am I about this thing

797
00:40:08.679 --> 00:40:12.000
<v Speaker 5>that I'm buying, because am I willing to go through

798
00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:15.559
<v Speaker 5>the hassle and you know, take it to the UPS

799
00:40:15.599 --> 00:40:17.519
<v Speaker 5>store or something like that, or to the local whole

800
00:40:17.519 --> 00:40:20.039
<v Speaker 5>foods to return for Amazon stuff, Am I actually going

801
00:40:20.079 --> 00:40:21.760
<v Speaker 5>to do that? Or is it just gonna like waste

802
00:40:21.760 --> 00:40:23.880
<v Speaker 5>away in a junk drawer or something like that. So

803
00:40:24.239 --> 00:40:26.400
<v Speaker 5>I just maybe a little more certainty on the front

804
00:40:26.480 --> 00:40:28.760
<v Speaker 5>end that this is an item that I think I'm

805
00:40:28.800 --> 00:40:30.679
<v Speaker 5>actually going to keep and use. I think can just

806
00:40:30.719 --> 00:40:32.400
<v Speaker 5>cut down on the return hassle too.

807
00:40:32.519 --> 00:40:36.199
