Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: No, there really is a beautiful concert.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and the tickets are very inexpensive. Twenty to ninety dollars.
Speaker 4: I know that sounds like a lot, but percent at tax.
Speaker 2: Deductible, and it's it's going to be great. It's a benefit.
Speaker 4: By the way, it helps poor people with legal representation
Speaker 4: because poor people have a hard time coming up with
Speaker 4: seven hundred dollars an hour for a lawyer. As a
Speaker 4: matter of fact, rich people have a hard time coming
Speaker 4: up with seven hundred dollars an hour for a lawyer.
Speaker 7: Seven hundred dollars an hour.
Speaker 5: Now oh yeah, oh yeah for a really high end lawyer,
Speaker 5: not that.
Speaker 4: High end for a pretty good lawyer. Well you can
Speaker 4: get them for five hundred, four hundred, five hundred. If
Speaker 4: youre getting a lawyer for three hundred dollars an hour,
Speaker 4: something's wrong. And there are appellate lawyers out there, high
Speaker 4: end criminal especially federal criminal defense lawyers at clock in
Speaker 4: at one thousand dollars an hour. Seven hundred is high.
Speaker 4: I mean, I have to admit that's that's on the
Speaker 4: upper tier. But three four hundred all day long.
Speaker 6: So the ticket prices are between twenty dollars and ninety dollars.
Speaker 5: Did they take thirty percent right off the.
Speaker 4: Top that's very funny. No, they take more than that,
Speaker 4: but they give most of it away. So please come
Speaker 4: the concerts. A couple of our concert is two hours long,
Speaker 4: and at seven hundred dollars an hour, it's fourteen hundred
Speaker 4: dollars to go. Okay, guys, it's election day, and I'll
Speaker 4: be talking more about that, and i'll tell you about
Speaker 4: putting that up on the website because I haven't told
Speaker 4: you yet.
Speaker 5: With a concert.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was talking to Gary last night, Gary Green,
Speaker 4: who is the conductor, great guy, known him for twenty years. Anyway,

Speaker 4: we actually have news to talk about.

Speaker 2: Okay, excellent, all right, listen, look, okay, let's do it.
Speaker 2: An has on her phone.
Speaker 6: I voted, I just posted the I vomited sticker nextllek instagrams.
Speaker 2: All right, guys, let's do it.
Speaker 4: Handle on the news with Amy Neil and me lead
Speaker 4: story and it's all.
Speaker 2: About election day.
Speaker 4: But unfortunately the news is going to be interference, unrest,
Speaker 4: allegations of fraud. Whatever you think we got in twenty twenty,
Speaker 4: it's going to be multiplied.
Speaker 2: This time around.
Speaker 4: The lawsuits have already been filed now it's over one
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty lawsuits have been filed, and we're going
Speaker 4: to see many, many more filed this week. And it's
Speaker 4: look at this in terms of the way it's laid out.
Speaker 4: The longer it's going to take to announce the results
Speaker 4: means that the more careful they are going to be.
Speaker 2: For example, in Georgia, there were.
Speaker 4: Two recounts last time out, the vote recount recount on
Speaker 4: top of that.
Speaker 2: So the longer it's going to take.
Speaker 4: Knows a lot of states aren't gonna come until Thursday Friday.
Speaker 2: The longer it's going to take, let me repeat, the
Speaker 2: more evidence that there is fraud, the more careful they are,
Speaker 2: the easier it is to argue fraud because how much
Speaker 2: time they have.
Speaker 4: They look at the days they took figuring out how
Speaker 4: to change the vote.
Speaker 2: That's what we're gonna hear.
Speaker 4: And I'm gonna talk a little bit more about later
Speaker 4: on the interference, the unrest, what Missouri and Florida have done.
Speaker 5: It's just do the campaigns pay for this?
Speaker 4: No, Sometimes they do, depending on state law. Sometimes it's automatic.
Speaker 4: Sometimes it's pursuant to a lawsuit. Sometimes depending on the win,
Speaker 4: if it's less than half a point in some states,
Speaker 4: you have to recount. Sometimes they Sometimes the campaigns do
Speaker 4: pay for it when law demands it.
Speaker 2: So it runs the gamut. It runs the gamut. You're
Speaker 2: gonna see horrific stuff going on in this selection.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna talk more about that and a story about
Speaker 4: people simply leaving the country. And I got to tell
Speaker 4: you I'm in that pile, and I'll explain that that's
Speaker 4: my future is. Yeah, it's pretty depressing. I mean, I'm
Speaker 4: having a very very tough time with this election, very tough.
Speaker 4: And it's not Trump versus Harris. I'm you know, Trump wins.
Speaker 4: I'm not a fan of Trump, but if Trump wins,
Speaker 4: I mean, that's the way America works. It's the trying
Speaker 4: to undo the very election. That's the part that I.
Speaker 2: Have a real rough time with undoing our ability to
Speaker 2: vote in this country.
Speaker 8: Well, the welcome Matt has not been rolled out for
Speaker 8: some election monitors. Some Republican led states say they're going
Speaker 8: to block the Justice departments election monitors from going into
Speaker 8: polling places today, which pushes back on federal authorities decades
Speaker 8: long practice of watching for violate violations of federal voting laws.
Speaker 8: In Florida and Texas, they say they will not allow
Speaker 8: federal election monitors into polling sites. Missouri filed a lawsuit
Speaker 8: seeking a court order to block federal officials from observing
Speaker 8: inside polling places, and then Texas followed with a similar lawsuit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is really crazy.
Speaker 5: Now, well, what does that all mean?
Speaker 4: This one that means that the Republicans have believed that,
Speaker 4: for example, the Justice Department, following the Trump's line, the
Speaker 4: Just Department has been weaponized by the Biden administration, and
Speaker 4: therefore Justice monitoring inside the polling places and at counting
Speaker 4: centers is part of the fraud, and they're going to
Speaker 4: make damn sure that no fraud happens.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 2: Now, well, let's dive into this a little bit. Federal
Speaker 2: workers are not about counting the vote. The Justice Department.
Speaker 4: It's about access to the polling places. It is about
Speaker 4: it's basically, people with disabilities have a right to vote.
Speaker 4: It was actually created because blacks were doing even things.
Speaker 4: Even though all Americans can vote, the states, particularly Southern states,
Speaker 4: not now, but the Southern States historically during the Civil
Speaker 4: rights era, did everything they could to stop blacks from voting.
Speaker 2: And so the Justice Department came in.
Speaker 4: And that has been a very long, long history, sixty
Speaker 4: seventy years. It has ever been a problem now because
Speaker 4: of the politics. We don't want the Feds in there.
Speaker 2: This is our state matter with us.
Speaker 4: Well, I'll tell you this is this is just the
Speaker 4: start of the craziness that's going to happen.
Speaker 5: This is part of the game. This too will pass.
Speaker 2: Eventually, hopefully.
Speaker 5: All right.
Speaker 6: Speaking of weird election stuff, Pennsylvania judge ruled just yesterday
Speaker 6: that Elon Musk and his daily one million dollar giveaway.
Speaker 6: You remember that he was going to give it to voters.
Speaker 6: He can continue. This is a I don't know, kind
Speaker 6: of moot point. Now, yeah, it.
Speaker 2: Doesn't mean because how clever.
Speaker 5: This is clever. This is all right, mostly symbolic now
Speaker 5: it is, But look.
Speaker 2: How clever it has been. Here you have.
Speaker 4: It's done through a pack and what it did, it
Speaker 4: didn't affect voters. What it did is asked voters to
Speaker 4: simply sign a petition. I believe in the second Amendment,
Speaker 4: I believe in the First Amendment. If you sign up,
Speaker 4: you have a chance to win just those petitions, you
Speaker 4: have a chance to win a million dollars. This is
Speaker 4: to reach people who had not voted or weren't going
Speaker 4: to vote. Now, if you sign up for those two
Speaker 4: and you're on a mailing list, now you can be
Speaker 4: sent information.
Speaker 2: Please vote.
Speaker 4: It's important to vote. Trump is a second Amendment advocate
Speaker 4: first Amendment. Look what the Democrats are doing. It's to
Speaker 4: increase the turnout for the Trump campaign.
Speaker 2: It is very smart they did that.
Speaker 4: It's a way to It's just whoever came up with
Speaker 4: that is absolutely brilliant. And by the way, what's illegal
Speaker 4: about asking people to sign a petition saying they believe
Speaker 4: in the first and second Amendment.
Speaker 2: There's nothing illego about that. Does it translate into more
Speaker 2: people voting? They think so.
Speaker 4: And even the Democrats are saying, wow, a couple of
Speaker 4: Democratic advisors going that's smart and it could turn in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2: This is in Pennsylvania. So that's all.
Speaker 5: That's Pamela God on Saturday Night Live. So she did oh.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no she did, she did oh And Trump was
Speaker 2: bitching about.
Speaker 6: That and everybody is pulling out this stupid I know
Speaker 6: everybody is stupid, stupid things and stupid old.
Speaker 4: Yeah, today it's going to be I'm going to talk
Speaker 4: about all of that, plus bailing out of the US,
Speaker 4: getting out of Dodge Dodge being dodged United States. So
Speaker 4: we'll we'll talk about that and what the electoral College means,
Speaker 4: because that's a complete cluster truck.
Speaker 2: All right, Let's move on.
Speaker 7: Russia is up to no good again.
Speaker 8: They have apparently sent incendiary devices shipped via DHL as
Speaker 8: part of a covert Russian operation to start fires on
Speaker 8: cargo and passenger planes flying in to the US and Canada.
Speaker 8: The device is ignited at DHL logistics hubs in July,
Speaker 8: one in Leipzig, Germany, and another in Birmingham, England. They
Speaker 8: were electric massages this isn't funny, implanted with a magnesium
Speaker 8: based flammable substance, and they were part of a wider
Speaker 8: Russian plot to blow stuff up on planes.
Speaker 5: They were what massagers.
Speaker 2: Let me ask you, did they describe the shape?
Speaker 5: No, they were going to blow up vibrators on a plane.
Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty much.
Speaker 6: I never want to deal with these mother father vibrators
Speaker 6: on a mother father plane.
Speaker 2: There you go.
Speaker 6: Wow, see what happens when we have all the infighting?
Speaker 6: The commedis are back. Nice job America, All right. Man
Speaker 6: in Nashville is a wing not apparently, Apartment of Justice
Speaker 6: said just yesterday federal agents have arrested this Tennessee man
Speaker 6: and he has tied to a white nationalist group. They
Speaker 6: say that he attempted to put explosives not in a vibrator,
Speaker 6: but put them on a drone, and that they were
Speaker 6: going to go over in an energy facility.
Speaker 5: For some reason.
Speaker 6: This guy had several pounds of C four explosives otherwise
Speaker 6: known as what plastique, and he was going to put
Speaker 6: it on an aerial drone and destroy the electric substation
Speaker 6: in Nashville.
Speaker 2: Now he has a.
Speaker 4: Straight out white supremacist eradicating Jews the blacks, and rightly so.
Speaker 4: He said, attacking these power centers, which they have done before,
Speaker 4: these wild ass groups with weapons, is nothing like blowing
Speaker 4: them up.
Speaker 2: That's the way to go.
Speaker 4: But he's an idiot, and you talked to an FBI
Speaker 4: in formant, which is great news.
Speaker 5: So keep it zipped up as what you're saying.
Speaker 2: Oh, some other news.
Speaker 7: That's good, let's build some planes.
Speaker 8: In striking Boeing workers have voted to accept the company's
Speaker 8: latest offer. That means that the seven week long strike
Speaker 8: of thirty three thousand union machinists will end and they
Speaker 8: will be back to work starting on Wednesday. The workstock
Speaker 8: stoppage has caused Boeing over the last seven weeks and
Speaker 8: estimated I believe it was six and a half billion dollars.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's yeah.
Speaker 4: It's going to be years before Boeing comes back from
Speaker 4: this one. If ever, in terms of the reputation one
Speaker 4: of the big ones, there's plenty of money.
Speaker 2: That they agree to, so the raises are pretty good.
Speaker 4: But Boeing still does not pay into its pension plan.
Speaker 4: It took away the pension plan from Boeing employees.
Speaker 2: A few years ago. It's still not there. Part of
Speaker 2: it that accepted.
Speaker 4: The reason that it was accepted is that iHeart agreed
Speaker 4: to establish a pension plan for us and the Boeing
Speaker 4: workers insisted on that.
Speaker 2: Oh no, I'm sorry, I got that story wrong.
Speaker 5: How dare you.
Speaker 2: Get your hopes? Get your hopes up? Hunt?
Speaker 7: Does anybody offer pension plans anymore?
Speaker 2: Yeah, the big some big big companies do.
Speaker 7: I don't think.
Speaker 4: I don't know specifically which ones, but they are completely
Speaker 4: out of favor.
Speaker 6: When when the heads of Boeing were asked how they're
Speaker 6: going to make up the loss in the payment, they said,
Speaker 6: not a problem.
Speaker 5: We're just gonna take a couple of bolts here, but
Speaker 5: there will be fine.
Speaker 2: True.
Speaker 4: Yeah, By the way, the unions have a pretty strong
Speaker 4: pension plan after for example, our SAG, after our union
Speaker 4: screen after gil slash American Federation of Radio and Television
Speaker 4: or Television Radio Artists. I don't know where that came in,
Speaker 4: that we are artists. Go figure, that's a pretty good pension.
Speaker 7: Oh so I do get a pension.
Speaker 2: You do? How long have you been in AFTRA.
Speaker 7: Twelve years?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got a pension?
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, one hundred and fifty dollars a month.
Speaker 2: It's probably a.
Speaker 4: Little bit more than that, depending on you know, if
Speaker 4: you work through your eighties, you know you're gonna get.
Speaker 2: A little more than that.
Speaker 4: Well, this this is gonna have to so yeah, you
Speaker 4: call them up, but that you know, it's the unions.
Speaker 2: That really have the strength and pension plans. Companies themselves
Speaker 2: not so much.
Speaker 6: All right, such a cool story. I saw this last
Speaker 6: night as I was in bed. So there's this tiny
Speaker 6: little town called Dicksville notch Hey, cough on, you're from Dicksville, right, No,
Speaker 6: I don't know why I had that, but it's in
Speaker 6: New Hampshire, tiny little place and since the nineteen sixties
Speaker 6: they have midnight voting, so they're the first ones to vote.
Speaker 5: But it's a tiny little town.
Speaker 6: So six people voted last night, and the tally was
Speaker 6: three voted for Kamala and three voted.
Speaker 2: Wow, where does I tell you huh in that?
Speaker 4: I mean Nixon was it was seven votes at that time,
Speaker 4: was seven zero against Humphrey.
Speaker 2: And you've got I mean just really saying JFK. He
Speaker 2: lost in Dixville.
Speaker 4: So you've got six or seven people voting, and you
Speaker 4: have three hundred people in the media outside.
Speaker 6: Well yeah, but you know what's interesting is you had
Speaker 6: four registered Republican voters, two independents that voted in January
Speaker 6: in the GOP primary primary. Rather and unanimously they voted
Speaker 6: for Nikki Hayley, so that you could perceive that as
Speaker 6: at least three of them picked up four.
Speaker 2: Interesting.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's we're going to be pointing this stuff all
Speaker 4: over the place in terms of this election as well.
Speaker 2: I'll talk a lot more about that today. All right. Oh,
Speaker 2: here's another election story. It's kind of interesting, Amy.
Speaker 7: Well, abortions on the ballot.
Speaker 8: Voters in nine states are deciding whether their state constitutions
Speaker 8: should guarantee you right to abortion. Passing amendments in Arizona, Florida, Missouri, Nebraska,
Speaker 8: and South Dakota would likely lead to undoing bans or
Speaker 8: restrictions that have been put in place blocking various levels
Speaker 8: of abortion across our access to more than seven million women.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: A couple of things about this is all these abortion
Speaker 4: bands and restrictions have been in.
Speaker 2: Place, put in place by the legislators of these states.
Speaker 4: There have I think been seven states in which abortion
Speaker 4: was put on the proposition level where the voters themselves
Speaker 4: voted laws into or out of existence. All seven, and
Speaker 4: even in red states, the voters have voted in favor
Speaker 4: of abortion.
Speaker 2: Which took the pro choice people or the pro life
Speaker 2: people for a loop.
Speaker 4: The majority of Americans want abortion, the majority of Americans
Speaker 4: want reproductive rights. And this is going to say a lot.
Speaker 4: This will be a bell weather. Now does it matter
Speaker 4: because you still have very conservative, very conservative legislatures that
Speaker 4: are out there, Texas and Florida and Mississippi, et ceter Right,
Speaker 4: You've got these states Arizona, Florida, Missouri, Nebaska, South Dakota.
Speaker 2: We'll see what happens.
Speaker 4: I'm willing to get that, willing to guess that a
Speaker 4: good portion of those are going to go through the
Speaker 4: to the poorab pro abortion side.
Speaker 6: All right, So we talked about this North Korean troops
Speaker 6: going to Russia putting on their uniforms and then fighting
Speaker 6: in the Ukraine or in Ukraine rather right. We talked
Speaker 6: about that, well, they're actually on the front lines now
Speaker 6: and that the Pyeongyang units were struck and deployment there.
Speaker 6: They have, you know, now a new level of complexity
Speaker 6: with all this as we approach the milestone of a
Speaker 6: thousand days of this war. You think they when they
Speaker 6: were fired upon their.
Speaker 2: Like whoa, whoa, whoa.
Speaker 5: We weren't told we were going to be fired on.
Speaker 4: No. I think the I think the government sort of knew.
Speaker 4: And this one gets interesting. Russia is is dominating here
Speaker 4: because Russia has virtually unlimited number of soldiers going in
Speaker 4: even though half a million have died or several hundred
Speaker 4: thousand have died.
Speaker 2: Here's why.
Speaker 4: Not only is it North Korea and this is ten
Speaker 4: twelve thousand, but also what Russia is doing is paying
Speaker 4: for people to sign up. So when you have these
Speaker 4: little towns out in Siberia, et cetera, where people make
Speaker 4: two hundred dollars a month, all of a sudden, the son,
Speaker 4: the father can make two thousand dollars a month fighting
Speaker 4: for Russia and signing bonuses a five and ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 4: I mean this is a lifetime So you have people
Speaker 4: that are willing to go. It basically is a life
Speaker 4: insurance policy where they're willing to jump off a cliff
Speaker 4: for their families.
Speaker 2: It's effectively what this is.
Speaker 5: Ye have a doesen't the money stop when you're dead?
Speaker 4: I think there's also a pension for the wife where
Speaker 4: the family, I.
Speaker 5: Mean, it's really moved there.
Speaker 2: What Putt Putin is doing is unbelievable.
Speaker 8: All right, Off in Ohio says he may have taken
Speaker 8: things a little too far. Apparently, he went on Facebook
Speaker 8: and made several posts saying he would not help Democrats
Speaker 8: and would require proof of who a person voted for
Speaker 8: before providing them with aid.
Speaker 7: He has now apologized.
Speaker 5: What's the matter with people?
Speaker 8: He blamed his out of character posts for prescribed sleeping
Speaker 8: aids or on prescribe.
Speaker 2: Please please the politics, It's just it just drives. I mean,
Speaker 2: that's what's going on. It really is. I've told you,
Speaker 2: I'm going through a.
Speaker 4: Mini depression, even even more depressed than when I think
Speaker 4: about having kids.
Speaker 7: You're gonna have kids.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, you're gonna have more kids? No, no, no,
Speaker 2: having the first go round.
Speaker 5: Oh, he's still depressed from them.
Speaker 2: I'm still depressed about that. Yeah, and this one too.
Speaker 5: Weird about this. We went through a civil war. We
Speaker 5: will be fine.
Speaker 2: Oh, I know, we're going to be fine. That doesn't
Speaker 2: mean we're.
Speaker 5: Set of people.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know it is.
Speaker 4: It is, But I talk to the people that were
Speaker 4: in the civil war. Okay, that's a little hard I understand.
Speaker 4: But the future of the country was really at stake.
Speaker 4: There was a there was a big malaise, and that's
Speaker 4: going on now. Is it going to be fine. Of course,
Speaker 4: we're very resilient. That doesn't mean you don't have a
Speaker 4: rough time. Certain things may change, Certain things may change,
Speaker 4: and that is looking at our elections.
Speaker 2: We may never look at our elections again, or.
Speaker 4: A big portion of our population looking at elections as free.
Speaker 4: That may have turned a page. That may have turned
Speaker 4: a page maybe, And I'm hoping if that's the case,
Speaker 4: it's only for a period of time. I mean, we've
Speaker 4: gone through major, major issues.
Speaker 5: But you could tighten all this stuff up.
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter how ask you how much more tight,
Speaker 4: how much war tight can you make the election? You
Speaker 4: have to do it in person, you have to do
Speaker 4: it for only two hours. You can't do mail in ballots.
Speaker 5: How much it would take to throw an election?
Speaker 4: It's not a question, no, no, no, no, it's not a quote,
Speaker 4: no no, don't do misunderstand We're I'm talking about throwing
Speaker 4: an election.
Speaker 2: Okay, I agree with you. Throwing an election is tough.
Speaker 4: But faith in our election system that has never been
Speaker 4: at issue except now that we've never.
Speaker 6: Had on that all the time because we're worried about it.
Speaker 6: But it's that eventually will die down as we go out.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I think it eventually will, but that doesn't
Speaker 4: mean that for the immediate five years, ten years coming up,
Speaker 4: elections will.
Speaker 2: Be suspect that there's no such thing as a free election.
Speaker 4: How many Americans think today that there is no such
Speaker 4: thing as a free election? If Kamala Harris wins, what
Speaker 4: percentage do you think that's the case? A huge number
Speaker 4: of people in this country. The only fair election is
Speaker 4: a Trump win. Anything else is a rigged election. That
Speaker 4: is the problem here. That's what kills me on this one.
Speaker 4: Not the win, not the policy, not the craziness that
Speaker 4: Trump has showed. I mean, you know, we've had crazy
Speaker 4: presidents before. We had Andrew Andrew Jackson, who was nuts.
Speaker 4: I mean, we've had pica that are just crazy, Andrew
Speaker 4: Johnson who is a virulent, virulent anti black president who
Speaker 4: wanted to reslave every black in the country as president.
Speaker 4: But I've never seen it where the very nature or
Speaker 4: our election is at risk, where we don't have a
Speaker 4: free election anymore.
Speaker 2: That's what's really getting to.
Speaker 6: Take because people don't and that's a symptom of another
Speaker 6: pain going on in the country.
Speaker 5: It's just not.
Speaker 2: Even arguing that.
Speaker 4: I don't even care what reason It isn't because it's
Speaker 4: a rigged election. It isn't because the election is unfair.
Speaker 4: It is because of other reasons. That's the problem I have.
Speaker 2: We'll go on.
Speaker 4: I've I can go gone for crazy, but let's do
Speaker 4: some more news before we just go.
Speaker 5: I think I think this is good news.
Speaker 6: The Board of Police Commissioners said yesterday or just earlier today,
Speaker 6: rather we're considering our considering.
Speaker 8: Rather they're meeting at n at five. What's they're meeting
Speaker 8: at nine thirty to talk about?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 6: Is that when it is? They're looking over thanks David King.
Speaker 6: They're looking over a five hundred and seven thousand dollars
Speaker 6: and change annual salary for former county sheriff Jim McDonald.
Speaker 6: He's expected to serve as the next LAPDKA chief. And
Speaker 6: I got it. And that's a couple hundred thousand over. Yeah,
Speaker 6: you know, predecessor. But you know what, give Jim McDonald
Speaker 6: anything you can. He seems like an excellent choice.
Speaker 4: Not arguing and not well, let me throw let me
Speaker 4: throw some arguments at you against this one. The it's
Speaker 4: a what a two hundred thousand dollars rais or or
Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty thousand dollars rays two. You compare
Speaker 4: it with other police chiefs around the country. Of sizeable
Speaker 4: police forces. This is nine thousand or almost ten thousand
Speaker 4: cops on the on the streets and.
Speaker 2: In various positions.
Speaker 4: It's the second biggest police force in the country.
Speaker 2: New York is the biggest, and the police chief there
Speaker 2: makes two hundred thousand dollars less.
Speaker 4: The police chiefs in other major cities make several hundred
Speaker 4: thousand dollars less.
Speaker 5: So what who cares? Why we can afford you know
Speaker 5: you're right?
Speaker 2: I mean this doesn't you know what? We can afford it?
Speaker 4: With a budget of several billion dollars, LAPD can afford
Speaker 4: paying him five million dollars a year.
Speaker 2: You could probably.
Speaker 5: Afford need a good leader that we have.
Speaker 4: A good leader on your Okay, let me ask this.
Speaker 4: He's not going to work for three hundred and fifty
Speaker 4: thousand dollars.
Speaker 6: I think he should get I think he should get
Speaker 6: a private car service he has one. I think people
Speaker 6: should take care of him and does they do jackets?
Speaker 6: I think he should get daily hugs.
Speaker 4: Well that is, but he does have a he has security,
Speaker 4: has a private car, he has a driver, he has
Speaker 4: a neat office.
Speaker 5: Times and I got to tell you he's likable, He's
Speaker 5: I like him.
Speaker 2: I've met him many times. But I know is he
Speaker 2: worth five hundred thousand dollars?
Speaker 4: By the way, the president gets four hundred thousand dollars,
Speaker 4: but the president gets free rent.
Speaker 2: He doesn't all I forgot that too.
Speaker 6: I think that soon to be police chief Jim McDonald
Speaker 6: should get free rent.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 4: Also, when he flies, he probably I'm willing to bet
Speaker 4: that they can. They upgrade him to business class when
Speaker 4: he flies, and when the president flies, the president really
Speaker 4: gets business class.
Speaker 6: He we need him more than he needs us, so
Speaker 6: pay him what what we can.
Speaker 5: Okay, I love you, Jim.
Speaker 8: Yeah, maybe Kamala should have done that. Podcast podcast host
Speaker 8: Joe Rogan has officially endorsed Donald Trump. That came yesterday.
Speaker 8: He released his latest podcast yesterday that had a two
Speaker 8: and a half hour interview with Elon Musk, who of
Speaker 8: course is a Trumps surrogate. Rogan tweeted out or xed
Speaker 8: out or whatever you call it. He makes what I
Speaker 8: think is the most compelling case for Trump. You'll hear
Speaker 8: I agree with him every step of the way. And
Speaker 8: for the record, yes, that is an endorsement of Trump.
Speaker 4: It would have changed at all if Kamala Harris had
Speaker 4: gone on his show.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 4: Second of all, Trump had a three hour interview and
Speaker 4: Trump went to Rogan, and Kamala Harris said that she
Speaker 4: wanted Rogan to go to her. And so there are
Speaker 4: you know, I mean, do you do it? Is Rogan
Speaker 4: important enough where you basically yeah?
Speaker 2: Probably probably.
Speaker 6: You know how many viewers Saturday Night Live has about
Speaker 6: five million?
Speaker 5: You know how many listeners Rogan has?
Speaker 7: What isn't twenty six million?
Speaker 2: I think sanity?
Speaker 5: Yeah, there, there's zero comparison. It is to the value
Speaker 5: of that.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 6: Tropical Storm Raphael heads towards hurricane strength before Cuba landfall
Speaker 6: coming probably.
Speaker 4: Tomorrow, okay, and we'll be talking about that of course
Speaker 4: as Raphael starts destroying everything in its past, and it's
Speaker 4: going up the Gulf, so we'll see some of the
Speaker 4: Gulf stays getting hit with.

Speaker 6: they don't let anybody with Hispanic names.
