WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.919 This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI 2 00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:05.839 AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand 3 00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:07.320 on the iHeartRadio app. 4 00:00:09.039 --> 00:00:12.320 Hey, everybody, Neil savedra in for Gary and Shannon today. 5 00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:16.920 We're on vacation. I was on with Marlon Tez yesterday. 6 00:00:17.120 --> 00:00:20.440 I hope she will return tomorrow, but she's not feeling well. 7 00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:24.039 It's this place. It's this place. 8 00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:26.280 No, it's probably not this place. 9 00:00:27.160 --> 00:00:30.640 A horrible story out of the Long Beach area, and 10 00:00:30.839 --> 00:00:34.880 that our very own Blake trolley is on Blake. 11 00:00:35.039 --> 00:00:35.719 How are you, sir? 12 00:00:36.520 --> 00:00:39.079 Hey, Neil doing good? Yeah, just here in Long Beach. 13 00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:42.799 And this attack happened just south of downtown on Alamitos Beach, 14 00:00:42.920 --> 00:00:45.560 which is just a few blocks down from the little 15 00:00:45.560 --> 00:00:50.200 mini skyscrapers, if you will, high rises here in downtown 16 00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:53.880 Long Beach. Yesterday, early in the morning, about five in 17 00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:56.119 the morning, a guy says a homeless man broke into 18 00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:59.439 his beachfront condo, started a fight with the man, ended 19 00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:02.119 up stout the man a few times in the chest 20 00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:05.439 than taking off the man's stab was taken to a hospital. 21 00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:07.760 He is expected to survive, but he did have several 22 00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:10.760 stab wounds. Again all to the upper body. The homeless 23 00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:14.840 man was found nearby. Officers described him as being non compliant, 24 00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:18.239 and they say that they had to use les lethal 25 00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:21.719 rounds to take him into custody. He's facing assault with 26 00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:25.400 deadly weapon charges as well as burglary for breaking into 27 00:01:25.400 --> 00:01:25.920 that condo. 28 00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:30.319 Didn't they just try to get him housing because that's 29 00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:33.680 the problem, right, Blake. They just get him a house 30 00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:35.120 and they'll be fine. 31 00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:38.640 No, Well, all this does come at an interesting time 32 00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:40.680 for the city of Long Beach. Less than a month ago, 33 00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:43.400 August twelfth, AMMO went out to the city saying that 34 00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:47.159 the city was going to start sweeping more problematic homeless camps. Now, 35 00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:49.439 this doesn't mean every single homeless camp in the city, 36 00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:53.159 but it certainly meant homeless camps they said, on beaches, 37 00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:56.760 at parks, near libraries, camps that have racked up a 38 00:01:56.799 --> 00:02:00.280 lot of complaints with the neighbors, large camps, and caps 39 00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:03.840 that pose public safety threats. Now, city officials said that 40 00:02:03.879 --> 00:02:07.280 they would start with kind of an outreach model offering services, 41 00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:12.319 then resort to citations and possibly, in very rare cases, arrest, 42 00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:14.840 But they did note that if somebody's arrested, it's highly 43 00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:18.400 unlikely they'd spend a lot of time in jail. But nonetheless, 44 00:02:18.599 --> 00:02:21.479 here we are less than a month later, and we 45 00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:25.439 have a homeless man breaking into somebody's house and stabbing 46 00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:28.360 the guy. Interestingly, Neil, I spoke with one woman and 47 00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:30.840 she she lives in the same exact neighborhood where this 48 00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:33.520 home got broken into. And I said, how would you 49 00:02:33.560 --> 00:02:37.000 describe the homeless situation here? And she said, out of control. 50 00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:40.479 And she then proceeded to tell me a story that 51 00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:43.560 her home was recently almost broken into by a homeless woman. 52 00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:45.919 I was sitting in my living room table working on 53 00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:48.680 my computer because I work from home, and she just 54 00:02:48.759 --> 00:02:50.719 tried to open my door and walk in, and I 55 00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:52.759 was like, hey, what are you doing. And she's like oh, 56 00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:54.599 and she waved at me like she knew me. I 57 00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:56.280 was like, get out of here. You don't belong here. 58 00:02:56.560 --> 00:02:59.080 And then she grabbed my plant and she tried to 59 00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:00.639 take off, you know, off my porch. 60 00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:02.400 And so you had a potted plant on the porch. 61 00:03:02.439 --> 00:03:04.120 You hat a potted plan on the little table on 62 00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:06.039 the porch. And I opened the door. It was like, 63 00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:08.080 that's not yours. Get out of here, give me that, 64 00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:10.759 and you know, and you struggle, right, you don't know 65 00:03:10.759 --> 00:03:11.319 if they're sick. 66 00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:14.680 And then she was telling me Neil also, so I 67 00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:16.360 had asked her how this is affecting people in the area, 68 00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:17.840 and she said, you know a lot of people that 69 00:03:17.919 --> 00:03:20.280 live here, they don't even go for walks anymore on 70 00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:22.120 the beach, or if they do walk, they walk in 71 00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:26.280 Paris because they just don't feel safe with the homeless 72 00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:27.719 situation in the area. 73 00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:31.120 Yeah, and it's becoming more and more like that. I 74 00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:35.879 this particular story you had mentioned that the officers had 75 00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:40.960 said that it was the individual was less than cooperative 76 00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:44.080 and they needed to use some less than lethal rounds. 77 00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:44.479 Correct. 78 00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:49.039 Yeah, that's correct, So just to subdue the per individual 79 00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:51.919 and to get them into cuffs. You're talking about forty 80 00:03:52.240 --> 00:03:57.400 millimeter less than lethal rounds, which I've seen him close. 81 00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:02.439 But that is an insane story. This continues to go on. 82 00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:04.560 We're now about what a month and a half or 83 00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:07.960 so after Newsom came out and started putting pressure on 84 00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:12.400 the cities. I think Long Beach was a little molasses footed. 85 00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:17.879 And you know, I maybe just the appearance of sweeping 86 00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:21.279 the homeless up and off is unpleasant to people. 87 00:04:21.319 --> 00:04:21.759 I get it. 88 00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:24.279 It's unpleasant to me, but it needs to be done. 89 00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:28.439 This is yet another story coming out of Long Beach, 90 00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:34.240 this time about a homeless individual arrested. This case a 91 00:04:34.319 --> 00:04:37.399 sufficion of burglary and assault with a deadly weapon. Was 92 00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:41.600 that just because the person was defending their home. 93 00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:42.639 And was stabbed? 94 00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:45.560 Well, he said, the way he described it was that 95 00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:47.560 the guy broke into his house and started a fight. 96 00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:50.120 So, you know, it's still a little blurry. What exactly 97 00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:51.439 does that look like? Who knows? 98 00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:53.839 I mean, I think anytime somebody intrudes it on your home, 99 00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:58.399 there's already a perceived threat when you hear that. Officers also, 100 00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:00.839 you know how to use less than rounds. You could 101 00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:03.879 only imagine the kind of condition the guy was in 102 00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:07.680 when the homeowner, the condo holder i should say, confronted 103 00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:09.879 him and yeah, Neil, you know, one of the challenges 104 00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:12.160 that the city did lay out is, you know, essentially 105 00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:15.600 the city did acknowledge that this model of just clearing 106 00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:18.720 camps might just move people around. They also said that 107 00:05:18.759 --> 00:05:22.000 it might also further put people into jeopardy with trying 108 00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:25.519 to get back into housing, as the citations will create 109 00:05:25.560 --> 00:05:30.120 another burden for them. I'm curious to see though, if 110 00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:33.759 in another year homeless people move out of the city 111 00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:36.279 of Long Beach and somewhere else. I was looking at 112 00:05:36.319 --> 00:05:39.959 the numbers, you know, last year in the latest count 113 00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:42.399 I should say, there were three three hundred and seventy 114 00:05:42.399 --> 00:05:45.399 six people. That was down two point one percent from 115 00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:48.839 the numbers in twenty twenty three, where there was more 116 00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:51.240 than thirty four hundred homeless people in the city. What 117 00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:55.160 I'm curious about is if the city does take these 118 00:05:55.160 --> 00:05:58.519 measures and it continues to make things less comfortable for 119 00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:02.600 homeless people, will we steep decline next year in the 120 00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:04.120 numbers again. 121 00:06:04.279 --> 00:06:06.279 This enforcement started less than a month ago. 122 00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:10.680 So far, I've counted four parks and a library, as 123 00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:12.480 far as zones where they've cleared camps. 124 00:06:13.399 --> 00:06:15.720 Wow, and you know, much more to go. 125 00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:18.360 I know they're wrestling with how this needs to be done, 126 00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:21.040 but I will tell you what's not good is having 127 00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:23.959 you know, fairal humans at this point that don't know 128 00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:26.040 how to take care of themselves, and we think it's 129 00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:29.600 more humane to leave them on the streets with you know, 130 00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:33.759 melee weapons ready to go into people's houses. 131 00:06:33.800 --> 00:06:35.680 It's just nuts, right. 132 00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:37.800 I was always curious Neil when this story was coming. 133 00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:40.839 I mean we covered a big homeless encampment sweep in 134 00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:43.199 Venice a couple of years ago. Yes, and while people 135 00:06:43.240 --> 00:06:45.480 didn't say that they went actually into their homes, I 136 00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:48.439 got a couple stories of them going into people's yards 137 00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:51.000 to use the hose and you know, things of that nature. 138 00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:52.920 So I was always wondering when we were going to 139 00:06:52.959 --> 00:06:55.120 actually see it, you know, a full on break in 140 00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:55.480 like this. 141 00:06:56.160 --> 00:07:01.759 Yeah, I've had more than one confrontation with the homeless individual, 142 00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:06.600 one on my porch and once laying on the gate 143 00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:10.920 drug completely drugged out, you know, just a normal front 144 00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:13.279 yard gate. And we don't live in a big gated 145 00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:18.279 community or anything very you know, mainstream areas. I'm not 146 00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:23.120 rich by any big stretch and just laying passed out. 147 00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:26.839 It's sad that we think that the most humane thing 148 00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:29.079 to do is just leave them as they are. 149 00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:30.560 It's not about housing. 150 00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:32.439 You're not going to put a forty six year old 151 00:07:32.439 --> 00:07:36.279 homeless man who broke into someone's home to stab them 152 00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:39.199 in a house and go. Finally, I just needed a 153 00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:42.800 microwave for Pete's sakes. I got this hot pocket and 154 00:07:44.279 --> 00:07:47.920 thank you, but I appreciate you being out there.

Obviously at this point, not 194 00:09:51.480 --> 00:09:56.120 only is the land moving, which is a problem, but 195 00:09:56.320 --> 00:10:03.159 also that gas was turned off in the area some 196 00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:08.279 gosh weeks ago or something, and then on Saturday they 197 00:10:08.320 --> 00:10:12.720 shut off the power. They continue to give warnings of 198 00:10:12.879 --> 00:10:18.080 evacuation the thing. The latest evactuation evacuation warning came at 199 00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:22.960 three twelve pm. The power was shut off, so residents 200 00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:25.840 were warned not to use water or plumbing after the 201 00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:30.279 electricity was shut off for fear of triggering a sewage 202 00:10:30.440 --> 00:10:35.039 spill in the area. The reality is this the city 203 00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:44.360 and Portuguese Bend community it I don't want to say 204 00:10:44.399 --> 00:10:49.080 it's done. I know that's dark. But the reality is 205 00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:53.080 this is not getting better. I have a doctor friend 206 00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:57.720 who says, you know, bad things don't get better, and 207 00:10:57.879 --> 00:11:02.879 think good things don't get worse. And in this particular case, 208 00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:09.200 you're looking at step after step after step of problems. 209 00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:13.919 And although this area Rancho's Palace Verdes has been moving 210 00:11:14.799 --> 00:11:18.679 for decades, a tiny bit here, a tiny bit there, 211 00:11:19.080 --> 00:11:22.679 that for the last twelve months or so, after the 212 00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:25.759 heavy rains in the spring of twenty twenty three, it 213 00:11:25.960 --> 00:11:34.600 has changed. It is moving incredibly quickly, to the tune of, 214 00:11:34.759 --> 00:11:37.600 you know, one and a half inches or so per day, 215 00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:39.879 give or take. 216 00:11:41.039 --> 00:11:41.960 That is massive. 217 00:11:42.039 --> 00:11:47.039 If you look at photos, they are breathtaking to see. 218 00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:54.879 The house is still standing, but the entire street caved in, 219 00:11:56.000 --> 00:12:03.080 just caved in. It looks like a disaster now. Thankfully, 220 00:12:03.639 --> 00:12:08.919 local law enforcement is upping their patrols there, not only 221 00:12:09.080 --> 00:12:12.639 on foot, but with drones, helicopters and the like to 222 00:12:12.759 --> 00:12:15.679 keep an eye on it. If you are stupid enough 223 00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:19.320 to go to that area to try and loot, you 224 00:12:19.399 --> 00:12:25.799 will be prosecuted. If not worse, we can keep our 225 00:12:25.840 --> 00:12:29.679 fingers crossed for the worst part. The thing that stands 226 00:12:29.759 --> 00:12:34.600 out to me in this story is not the helplessness 227 00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:34.919 of it. 228 00:12:36.440 --> 00:12:39.200 Yes, it looks helpless. 229 00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:44.080 I don't know how you shore up a sliding chunk 230 00:12:44.120 --> 00:12:49.480 of land. Now you have gas, that's a problem. Shut 231 00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:52.559 it off, power problem, shut it off. You can't use 232 00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:55.919 the plumbing. This should be condemned. You would not be 233 00:12:56.039 --> 00:13:00.080 able to live in a home like this anywhere. They 234 00:13:00.080 --> 00:13:03.120 wouldn't let you move into this home. So the so 235 00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:06.919 called evacuation warnings, I think at this time it's you 236 00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:09.320 prepare to get out of there. I know they gave 237 00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:15.080 the five p's or whatever it's people, pets, photos, paperwork, 238 00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:17.240 and the list of the things that you should have 239 00:13:17.320 --> 00:13:18.840 on hand to be able to get up and get 240 00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:23.799 out with. But it looks very bad. The problem, or 241 00:13:23.799 --> 00:13:30.919 the thing that stood out to me is that it's 242 00:13:30.919 --> 00:13:36.759 become a class issue. I've heard many times and read 243 00:13:36.799 --> 00:13:40.399 on social media that people have said, well, you know, 244 00:13:40.879 --> 00:13:43.399 it's rich people, so they can afford it, or they 245 00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:48.120 deserve it. Somehow, They shouldn't live in that area. Now, granted, 246 00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:52.039 if there is a geological problem there, then nobody should 247 00:13:52.039 --> 00:13:56.559 be living there. But in this particular case, I found 248 00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:59.200 that strange that that is what coming out. And I 249 00:13:59.240 --> 00:14:04.720 think a lot of this is the perception politically that 250 00:14:04.799 --> 00:14:07.919 the left and the right are protecting two different people. 251 00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:12.159 The right always look like they're protecting the rich, and 252 00:14:12.200 --> 00:14:14.799 the left always look like they're protecting the poor. And 253 00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:18.039 I make reference to that all the time. You've got 254 00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:22.240 the right that looks after the upper one percent and 255 00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:25.960 the left that looks after the lowest one percent. But 256 00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:32.840 in this particular case, we're kind of associating that someone's 257 00:14:32.919 --> 00:14:38.879 wealth with being bad. And what freaks me out is 258 00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:42.919 the American dream is to be successful. Now, for you, 259 00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:47.200 I have a particular mark of success, and it's not 260 00:14:47.320 --> 00:14:50.360 being rich. There's a certain mark where I say, this 261 00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:53.200 is where you can live comfortably, have money to give 262 00:14:53.919 --> 00:15:00.759 to your children, to charity, to interests, that you're at 263 00:15:00.799 --> 00:15:02.919 a good place. You don't need to buy everything, you 264 00:15:02.919 --> 00:15:06.759 don't need to do all those things. But this story, 265 00:15:06.879 --> 00:15:09.960 to me, the back the back door of the story 266 00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:15.480 of Rancho Pales Verdes is that people care less, even 267 00:15:15.519 --> 00:15:19.519 the governor, at least from yesterday or looking into anything today, 268 00:15:19.799 --> 00:15:22.759 has not reached back to the mayor or to the 269 00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:26.919 people of Rancho Palas Verdes. If it was a poor neighborhood, 270 00:15:27.360 --> 00:15:30.559 I would put money that Newsom would have already reached out. 271 00:15:30.720 --> 00:15:32.960 And it's just sad that that gets tied into a 272 00:15:33.000 --> 00:15:36.919 real need that can be seen, can be heard, felt 273 00:15:37.039 --> 00:15:38.120 and feared. 274 00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:39.919 That it gets tossed into that. 275 00:15:40.000 --> 00:15:42.759 And is Neil Savager and for Gary and Shannon Today, 276 00:15:42.799 --> 00:15:43.679 we'll be back with more. 277 00:15:45.200 --> 00:15:48.639 You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI 278 00:15:48.879 --> 00:15:49.759 AM six forty. 279 00:15:51.879 --> 00:16:02.200 Hey, everybody, it's the Gary and Shannon Show. Gas Yeah, yeah, 280 00:16:02.240 --> 00:16:06.200 that's kind of unfortunate. I mean, they focus on it 281 00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:09.559 being like the gas station, but it's kind of unfortunate 282 00:16:09.639 --> 00:16:15.360 the year then they have the gas bag. No, no, no, no, Deborah, 283 00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:17.879 I wasn't talking about Shannon. I mean the mail bag 284 00:16:17.919 --> 00:16:18.399 that they have. 285 00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:19.840 Oh, okay, I was a. 286 00:16:19.879 --> 00:16:21.720 Little sorry about that. 287 00:16:21.720 --> 00:16:22.879 That was kind of rude. 288 00:16:23.000 --> 00:16:25.720 Any who, Nil Savagra in happy to be with you. 289 00:16:25.879 --> 00:16:28.720 I believe my buddy Marla Taez is going to join 290 00:16:28.759 --> 00:16:30.600 me tomorrow and we'll be finishing out the rest of 291 00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:33.879 the week. As Gary and Shannon are on vacation, it's 292 00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:36.440 going to be hot, hot, hot, and you're gonna hear 293 00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:40.240 all those songs over and over and over again as 294 00:16:40.279 --> 00:16:43.960 southern California and all of those here in it get 295 00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:47.519 to enjoy this heat wave bringing massive temperatures again up 296 00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:52.480 to one hundred and nineteen degrees. Does it Does it 297 00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:56.399 feel like that's becoming the norm, like the high end norm, 298 00:16:57.600 --> 00:17:02.320 because now, like I remember walking out of the house yesterday, 299 00:17:02.679 --> 00:17:05.680 and of course I get up early, and it's cooler 300 00:17:05.720 --> 00:17:07.960 in the mornings, and you go and you do whatever. 301 00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:10.960 But then if I'm tooling around in the house, I 302 00:17:10.960 --> 00:17:13.720 don't feel it. If I'm in my shop, my shop 303 00:17:13.759 --> 00:17:17.160 doesn't have air conditioning. It's a converted garage, so there's 304 00:17:17.200 --> 00:17:19.559 no you know, air in there. Maybe a fan, so 305 00:17:19.640 --> 00:17:21.720 I can feel it in there, and then you go 306 00:17:21.799 --> 00:17:24.880 out and it's like boom. Well, we're looking at this 307 00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:28.440 triple digit heat becoming, you know, something to deal with 308 00:17:28.519 --> 00:17:32.119 this week, as the Los Angeles basin could reach one 309 00:17:32.200 --> 00:17:36.119 hundred and thirteen degrees by the weekend, and you know, 310 00:17:36.359 --> 00:17:39.880 in the Coachella Valley area, you're looking at one hundred 311 00:17:39.880 --> 00:17:42.799 and nineteen. Now I love the desert. I don't know 312 00:17:42.799 --> 00:17:44.960 who would be stupid enough to be traveling to the 313 00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:50.039 desert today. It's gonna be hot, but in those areas 314 00:17:50.480 --> 00:17:54.440 it gets incredibly high. I love going over there, you know. Obviously, 315 00:17:54.480 --> 00:17:57.359 going out to Marongo is wonderful. 316 00:17:57.400 --> 00:17:57.640 You know. 317 00:17:57.720 --> 00:18:01.079 I love that they're pool that they have set up there, 318 00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:06.480 the Lazy River come on, ye boy, And going to 319 00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:10.960 Palm Springs and those areas are fantastic. But holy hell, 320 00:18:11.680 --> 00:18:16.200 this is typically the hottest time of the year when 321 00:18:16.240 --> 00:18:20.000 you're dealing with the climate and everything. But now we're 322 00:18:20.039 --> 00:18:23.759 going to be ten to fifteen degrees above normal. So 323 00:18:23.799 --> 00:18:28.400 we're already looking at some pretty hardcore days ahead of us. 324 00:18:28.480 --> 00:18:31.559 In the San Gabriel Valley, in the San Fernando Valley. 325 00:18:31.880 --> 00:18:35.880 I was in the San Fernando Valley this past weekend 326 00:18:36.319 --> 00:18:40.279 hanging out with family and in the shade, it was hot. 327 00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:43.599 I live in the west San Fernando Valley and let 328 00:18:43.640 --> 00:18:46.000 me tell you, Okay, it is so hot. 329 00:18:46.400 --> 00:18:49.599 So what were the temperatures, you know, for what was 330 00:18:49.640 --> 00:18:52.519 the temperature for you on Sunday m I. 331 00:18:52.759 --> 00:18:54.160 Would say about one hundred and five. 332 00:18:54.440 --> 00:18:57.640 Yeah, it So what do you do, Deborah? 333 00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:01.279 I mean do you get like, uh, you know, the 334 00:19:01.319 --> 00:19:04.359 top of a bottle, a twist off from the top bottle, 335 00:19:04.359 --> 00:19:06.400 fill it with some ice water and jump in or 336 00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:08.079 a thimble or something. 337 00:19:08.519 --> 00:19:11.160 No, I just don't really go outside.

Okay, So we have a small pool. 367 00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:19.200 It is not big. It's twelve by twenty four roughly, 368 00:20:19.880 --> 00:20:22.759 and my wife loves to swim. She has one of 369 00:20:22.759 --> 00:20:25.160 those tether things that tethers her to the center so 370 00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:29.440 that she can do laps like or endurance like all that. 371 00:20:29.640 --> 00:20:31.599 So it's not a big pool, but you can splash 372 00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:34.240 in it. However, because it's not a very big pool, 373 00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:36.960 and it's not a very deep pool that with the 374 00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:41.359 cover and the security cover on it gets up to 375 00:20:41.480 --> 00:20:44.440 ninety seven ninety five easy, just because it's in the sun. 376 00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:47.000 You don't have so you don't have a pool heater 377 00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:47.480 or you don't. 378 00:20:47.480 --> 00:20:48.680 We do, but we don't use it. 379 00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:51.839 We only use it because we usually it probably comes 380 00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:55.599 on near the end of October. Let's say, okay, but 381 00:20:55.759 --> 00:21:00.000 I like the pool like eighty six eighty seven because 382 00:21:00.440 --> 00:21:02.160 on a hot day you feel like you're cooled down. 383 00:21:02.559 --> 00:21:04.359 I don't want to get in and feel like I'm 384 00:21:04.359 --> 00:21:04.920 in the spot. 385 00:21:05.039 --> 00:21:06.920 Oh No, I need it in the nineties. 386 00:21:07.039 --> 00:21:09.039 And we don't want to heat our pool because it's 387 00:21:09.079 --> 00:21:11.720 just too expensive. So I hardly ever go in because 388 00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:14.440 I need it to be hot, even if it's one 389 00:21:14.480 --> 00:21:15.240 hundred and five out. 390 00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:20.920 Okay, I'm just putting down schedule playdate for Tracy and 391 00:21:21.079 --> 00:21:25.200 Deborah to frolic in the ninety five degree Yes. 392 00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:27.519 That's the best. Oh cold pools. 393 00:21:27.599 --> 00:21:30.519 Yeah, you and my son will get along too, because 394 00:21:30.559 --> 00:21:34.319 he's now based on that because it's a dark bottom 395 00:21:34.400 --> 00:21:39.440 pool and the sun hits us. The sun in our 396 00:21:39.480 --> 00:21:41.559 place we have almost zero shade. 397 00:21:41.960 --> 00:21:44.359 Yeah, same with me because it goes east. 398 00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:47.599 To west and it's it just bakes us the whole day. 399 00:21:47.640 --> 00:21:50.240 But I don't have one of those pool covers on. 400 00:21:50.680 --> 00:21:53.839 So that's probably why my pool just maybe it maybe 401 00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:56.319
