Speaker 3: Little little kids love those big trucks.
Speaker 2: I can see that. I can see that. Yeah, I

Speaker 2: are always very strange to me.
Speaker 1: I've never been in I've never a truck person, you know,
Speaker 1: or you girls. Yeah, also, I was big on I
Speaker 1: was big on ken dolls when I was when I
Speaker 1: was much younger, and that that translates into I'm not
Speaker 1: even going to talk about that. It's between me and
Speaker 1: my shrink.
Speaker 4: You took your daughters to musicals mostly I did take
Speaker 4: my daughters to musicals. I know, oh I've been to
Speaker 4: them with you.
Speaker 2: We've gotten Uh.
Speaker 4: I have a similar I have a similar love for for.
Speaker 1: When I take when I take my daughter to musical,
Speaker 1: particularly Pamela.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: You know the it's all the I Now, you have
Speaker 1: to have number one, the obligatory uh Latino, doesn't matter
Speaker 1: what the show is, the obligatory Latino, the obligatory insanely
Speaker 1: overweight person in the chorus dancing, the obligatory African American.
Speaker 2: Right, you have to have them. So every time I.
Speaker 1: Turn to my daughter when some one of those show up,
Speaker 1: I go, Pamela. She goes, I know, dad, shut.
Speaker 2: Up with those. She knows exactly what I'm going to say.
Speaker 4: By the way, you're watching them in southern California, and
Speaker 4: as a Latino, I would say, not obligatory when you're
Speaker 4: fifty percent of the population.
Speaker 1: But let me ask you this. For example, Hamilton, which
Speaker 1: is phenomenal. There's one white person in the cast. You
Speaker 1: know that said the rest of his all minority.
Speaker 2: I mentioned that if I remember, he's just the guy
Speaker 2: who plays George. It's just the guy who plays George.
Speaker 2: The third is Hunt.
Speaker 4: That's the whole premise is that they're taking something from
Speaker 4: the past, but it is still a reverse reversion.
Speaker 2: Don't explain. Yeah, please don't explain that to me.
Speaker 1: I don't want to.
Speaker 2: That's way too complicated for me.
Speaker 4: Give me a break.
Speaker 1: And usually you could point out you usually you can
Speaker 1: point out, you know, who is in the chorus gay,
Speaker 1: the gay dancers.
Speaker 2: And who is not?
Speaker 1: And you know that's that's impossible to her me. Very
Speaker 1: dear friend of mine, by the way, well their son buried.
Speaker 1: Dear friend mind went into dancing. He joined a dancing
Speaker 1: troupe and everybody made fun of him. Oh, and everybody's
Speaker 1: going to think, you know, you're that kind of person. Goes,
Speaker 1: first of all, this guy is the most depraved guy.
Speaker 1: He gets laid more than anybody he I have ever
Speaker 1: met or seen in my entire life. He goes, are
Speaker 1: you kidding with all of those chorus girls and I'm
Speaker 1: the straight guy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're the straight guy in a theater department.
Speaker 2: You do really well.
Speaker 3: You're doing really well. Hey, I also love musicals. I
Speaker 3: just want to propose, like a handle show musical outing.
Speaker 3: You know, she's a pantagious Maybe somewhere will also I.
Speaker 1: Agree, but I'm just going by myself. I do that
Speaker 1: all the time. I do kfi events where no one
Speaker 1: else shows up to cut me.
Speaker 3: You're just the only one there. Yeah, all right, Well,
Speaker 3: I would go to the theater with anybody if they
Speaker 3: ever want to go see a show. I'm down, all.
Speaker 1: Right, she's hustling for it. Okay, all right, guys, let's
Speaker 1: do it. What a weird Monday to start with, Just
Speaker 1: another week, just weirdness and weird.
Speaker 3: Ma me, we'll come back tomorrow. I'm sure, I promise.
Speaker 1: Okay, she'll get it too. All right, guys, let's do it.
Speaker 1: We're gonna start with a little bit of bad news,
Speaker 1: and it's a Handle on the News with Heather O,
Speaker 1: Neil and Me lead story. Well, Joe Biden diagnosed with
Speaker 1: an aggressive form of prostate cancer. It has metastasized now
Speaker 1: into his bones, and that is that ain't good news,
Speaker 1: Although you know, I don't know if the doctors are
Speaker 1: telling us the truth or not. And they're saying that
Speaker 1: it's hormone sensitive, which allows for effective management. I don't
Speaker 1: know what that means either anyway, So they're looking at treatment,
Speaker 1: but into the bones is not good news at all.
Speaker 2: And so it's not unusual.
Speaker 1: You know, many many I don't know what the percentage
Speaker 1: you may have pros day cancer, but usually you die
Speaker 1: of old age before you die of prost day cancer.
Speaker 1: When you have it so slow acting, it's kind of yeah,
Speaker 1: at some point every man will have it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Listening to Heather this morning, they were saying it could
Speaker 4: be five ten years. I mean, it's not like it's
Speaker 4: imminent death, right, Heather.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what Stephen Portnoy from ABC said that the
Speaker 3: doctors are saying that he could survive another five to
Speaker 3: ten years with this with the proper treatment, but you
Speaker 3: don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and bone cancer is no fun, probably one of
Speaker 1: the most painful cancers.
Speaker 3: Also, just a great reminder everybody go get checked. This
Speaker 3: is a good reminder to do that, all right. Suspect
Speaker 3: has been identified in the Palm Springs bombing, a twenty
Speaker 3: five year old man. His name is Guy Edward. Barkiss,
Speaker 3: and authorities are now confirming that he is the person
Speaker 3: who died during the explosion at the Palm Springs fertility clinic.
Speaker 1: Yeah, interesting story, Not that it has any societal implications.
Speaker 1: I mean, if anybody says this is important societaly, it's not,
Speaker 1: because this guy is just a complete fruitcake and it's
Speaker 1: basically a one off. But I'm going to dive into
Speaker 1: it because there are a couple of things about this
Speaker 1: that are just fascinating. He refers to some movements that
Speaker 1: I didn't even know existed, that these are things I
Speaker 1: was talking and about. This Really this is a thing,
Speaker 1: and so I'll do that at seven point fifty one.
Speaker 4: Thing.
Speaker 3: I know, a lot of families are probably very relieved
Speaker 3: that the embryos were not harmed in any way. So
Speaker 3: I know that's a big relief to a lot of people.
Speaker 1: Oh, it's a huge relief because in many many cases,
Speaker 1: those frozen embryos the last chance to have biological children.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, that's it. They're gone. They're gone.
Speaker 1: And there have been lawsuits when embryos have been destroyed
Speaker 1: or have left to baw by accident because they're in
Speaker 1: liquid nitrogen. These containers big lawsuits and going in front
Speaker 1: of a jury saying those are my kids, that's my
Speaker 1: chance of parenthood.
Speaker 2: Those cases settle pretty quickly. Go handle.
Speaker 1: Here on a Monday, May nineteenth, we continue more handle
Speaker 1: on the news, Heather in for Amy today, Neil in
Speaker 1: for Neil today, and me.
Speaker 4: Such a weird couple of days of news. You had
Speaker 4: that bombing there in Palm Springs, and then a Mexican
Speaker 4: Navy sailboat got two hundred and seventy seven people on
Speaker 4: board doing a demonstration, crashed into the Brooklyn Bridge on Saturday,
Speaker 4: killed two people injuring more than a dozen others who
Speaker 4: were on board. What a crazy s.
Speaker 2: Did you see the video? You saw that crowd?
Speaker 4: Yeah, from ten different angles.
Speaker 2: It's this huge sailing ship.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and tall ship because they're tall, and it goes
Speaker 1: right into the bridge and well the masks are higher
Speaker 1: than the bridge, and you know, how is that possible?
Speaker 1: They lost power and the current swept in and you
Speaker 1: see that, and you had all the sailors this training boat,
Speaker 1: all the sailors along the crossbars or whatever the hell
Speaker 1: they call them, on the masts and they're all lining
Speaker 1: up on that span and they're holding hands and and
Speaker 1: they got knocked off. It was like it's almost like
Speaker 1: one of those carnival side shows where you shoot those
Speaker 1: little ducks and you know that.
Speaker 4: Are copying over. Have a little bit of class? How
Speaker 4: about that?
Speaker 2: That was a little bit of class for me.
Speaker 3: They were definitely.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I think that it was a precursor to something
Speaker 4: it's supposed to take place on the fourth of July.
Speaker 4: I think it was a test run of something they
Speaker 4: were going to do to celebrate.
Speaker 2: Beautiful ship too.
Speaker 1: I mean, it is a knockout of a ship, but
Speaker 1: a horribles Yeah.
Speaker 3: All right. So President Trump says if he could just
Speaker 3: to Putin to Vladimir Putin that he they could work
Speaker 3: it out. They could work out this whole thing in Ukraine,
Speaker 3: the war in Ukraine. Apparently he's going to be speaking
Speaker 3: to him today and I guess he's going to try
Speaker 3: to convince him to stop the war in Ukraine. So
Speaker 3: we'll see.
Speaker 1: And he says, the only way the war's going to stop,
Speaker 1: of course, is for Trump and Putin to cut a deal.
Speaker 2: Zielinski's sort of off the table. We'll handle this.
Speaker 1: Now, you think this is what happened by now this
Speaker 1: phone call, because what Moscow is ten eleven hours ahead
Speaker 1: of US, and so we're already talking about.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1: It's late afternoon in Moscow, really late afternoon. So we'll
Speaker 1: see what time this happens. Man.
Speaker 2: I don't know if Putin stays up later or not.
Speaker 2: I have no idea early riser.
Speaker 4: Torturing bugs.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe early to bed, early to rise again.
Speaker 3: I'm keeping an eye on it. Hasn't happened yet.
Speaker 2: More prone to kill people. Okay.
Speaker 4: Israel announced Sunday it will allow limited amount of humanitarian
Speaker 4: aid to Gaza. You've got this three month blockade that
Speaker 4: they were participating in, and you've got global experts that
Speaker 4: came out on their you know, experts on food security
Speaker 4: and all these things and straight up just said, hey,
Speaker 4: you're you're running them into a famine. Prime Minister Benjamin
Speaker 4: Netanyahu said a starvation crisis would jeopardize Israel's new military
Speaker 4: offense in Gaza.
Speaker 2: So, I mean, none of this makes any sense whatsoever. None.
Speaker 1: One of the authority figures in the Palestinian authority said,
Speaker 1: when Hamas wants to have some kind of a truce,
Speaker 1: Israel says no. When Israel wants to have a truce,
Speaker 1: Hamas says no. Everybody is saying no. And the shame
Speaker 1: of it is Israel says, you just return all of
Speaker 1: the hostages or we're going to wipe out Gaza, and
Speaker 1: Hamas is prepared to do that, is perfectly prepared to
Speaker 1: have ninety five percent of the population of Gaza wiped
Speaker 1: out as long as it stays in power.
Speaker 2: Polly care about That's great, isn't that?
Speaker 4: Who are you ruling over? At that point, you're ruling over.
Speaker 1: Now you know what you're doing, You're ruling over and
Speaker 1: oh you're talking about the Hamas.
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. They just want I don't even know
Speaker 2: what they're thinking.
Speaker 1: I have no idea, and here is yeah, and here
Speaker 1: is what they're thinking. For example, we're talking about the Palestinians.
Speaker 1: The rest of the Middle East, the Arab world will
Speaker 1: be on their side.
Speaker 2: It's all lip service.
Speaker 1: This last four day or three day jaunt that the
Speaker 1: president had in the Middle East, it was all about business.
Speaker 4: There was one or.
Speaker 1: Two words that were about that were happening about what
Speaker 1: was going on in Gaza. But let's talk business. That's
Speaker 1: what we really care about. And the Palestinians, to their chagrin,
Speaker 1: they think the world's going to turn against Israel or
Speaker 1: they're going to be supported other than just straight out
Speaker 1: lip service, a little bit of money from Saudi Arabia
Speaker 1: and wait, but not a lot. So for the first
Speaker 1: time I was reading yesterday, I was looking at I
Speaker 1: think it was a Wall Street journal where there actually
Speaker 1: is a movement starting to realize that, or at least
Speaker 1: being vocal about telling us saying that Hamas is really
Speaker 1: killing us. Israel is going to wipe us out. Are
Speaker 1: the hostages worth the total destruction of Gaza?
Speaker 2: It's tough. And by the way, I am convinced that
Speaker 2: Israel is.
Speaker 1: Committing a war crime with the starvation, stopping humanitarian aid,
Speaker 1: no question anything else.
Speaker 3: Yeah, just a really devastating and deadly storm system moved
Speaker 3: across the central US and into the eastern parts of
Speaker 3: the US over the weekend. Twenty five people were killed
Speaker 3: in Missouri, southeastern Kentucky as the storm moved its way east,
Speaker 3: started in Kansas and Oklahoma, which is my home state,
Speaker 3: and just destroyed towns and left just a wake of
Speaker 3: death and destruction.
Speaker 1: This is brutal. These storms are absolutely brutal. I noticed
Speaker 1: on ones areguing climate change anymore. I'm not hearing how
Speaker 1: it doesn't exist anymore. And now it's just dealing with
Speaker 1: these horrific storms and it's just this is terrible.
Speaker 3: You know, I grew up in Oklahoma, right in the
Speaker 3: heart of tornado alley.
Speaker 2: Oh did you ever experienced a tornado?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, like right there, up close, clicking your heels
Speaker 1: three times.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think I wish I could go home
Speaker 2: kind of thing.
Speaker 3: It was more like, take shelter, it's half a mile away,
Speaker 3: and you know.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's not like dogs flying through the air or
Speaker 1: anything like that.
Speaker 3: No, it wasn't quite that picturesque. But I grew up
Speaker 3: with tornado sirens being a regular part of the you know,
Speaker 3: school year and of your life, and knowing where to
Speaker 3: position yourself in a safety in terms of where the
Speaker 3: tornado is going, and it's a it's a real thing.
Speaker 3: And what seems to be, you know, people don't understand
Speaker 3: is there's there is not that you can do to
Speaker 3: hide from a tornado unless.
Speaker 2: Well out if you got I mean, they are tornado shelters.
Speaker 2: I assume you do. Basements, so you go down in
Speaker 2: the basement.
Speaker 3: Yes, but even that, if your house completely falls in
Speaker 3: around you, you're not entirely safe. Or if the wind
Speaker 3: comes and you know, tornadoes have like a tip that
Speaker 3: touches the ground and lifts things up and pulls up,
Speaker 3: so anything is uproaded. I mean, you've seen the aftermath
Speaker 3: of tornado distruser, Oh yeah, I.
Speaker 2: See them all the time.
Speaker 1: But inevitably, but people survive. Inevitably, someone comes out of
Speaker 1: this place that was completely destroyed, yeah, and comes out
Speaker 1: and says, I mean, thank goodness, we're alive, which is
Speaker 1: absolutely true.
Speaker 3: Yes, you can't survive. There are shelters that are built
Speaker 3: for that. You definitely can't survive it. But it's just
Speaker 3: it's it's getting worse. I think you know, oh it is. Yeah, no,
Speaker 3: it's a listen, that's science.
Speaker 2: It's getting worse.
Speaker 1: I mean, it doesn't take an idiot to figure out
Speaker 1: that this is real stuff.
Speaker 2: It is a Monday morning, May nineteenth.
Speaker 1: Haven't looked outside yet to see what the weather is like, Heather,
Speaker 1: were we are looking at outside?
Speaker 3: Wise beautiful and sunny.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a nice day today, Okay, it would.
Speaker 3: Be in the seventy it'd be hot today, guys, really hot.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 2: And then the East Coast is drowning. That's great.
Speaker 1: See, that's I wish that they would that the news
Speaker 1: would cover how horrible the weather is here, because you
Speaker 1: know what ends up happening. Excuse me, fraud is I
Speaker 1: hate it when there's great weather New Year's Day because
Speaker 1: we do the Rose Parade and it's seventy degrees outside
Speaker 1: and everybody's in shorts and short sleeve shirts, and you've
Speaker 1: got a bunch of people in upstate New York and
Speaker 1: Buffalo and the snow is up over the eves are saying,
Speaker 1: what the.
Speaker 2: Hell are we doing living here?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, And Macy's Day Parade the past few years
Speaker 3: has been like rainy and miserable, and I'm like, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: So yeah, and welcome to southern California. Right, This is
Speaker 1: what we need is more people, all right, continuing on
Speaker 1: more handle on the news with Heather and Neil and me.
Speaker 4: All right. Police in Slavinia, that's a real place, by
Speaker 4: the way, they're investigating the disappearance of a bronze statue
Speaker 4: of the US First Lady Millennia Trump. I saw it
Speaker 4: off carried away from her hometown. It was unveiled in
Speaker 4: twenty twenty during the first President Donald Trump. I guess
Speaker 4: it actually replaced a wooden statue that had been set
Speaker 4: on fire that year.
Speaker 1: So did you even know that there was a statue
Speaker 1: of Millennia or a Millennia that didn't either.
Speaker 4: Be a blind spot?
Speaker 2: Yeah, because she's done so much.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's up on statue. Of course, she's the best.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she dresses, She dresses well too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, everything about her very pretty.
Speaker 1: She is very pretty, very attractive woman doesn't Yeah, she's pretty.
Speaker 2: I like that. That's what else can you say about her?
Speaker 1: She's pretty, She's Slovenian, she speaks with an accent, and
Speaker 1: she is the most inconsequential first lady that we've had,
Speaker 1: probably in the history of first ladies, certainly modern history.
Speaker 4: But he's pretty. He's pretty.
Speaker 3: World peace, all right. Bruce Springsteen is in a little
Speaker 3: bit of he's causing a little controversy. He called President
Speaker 3: Trump a dried out prune during one of his concerts,
Speaker 3: and then, of course, you know, President Trump heard about that,
Speaker 3: and and he went online and called him highly overrated
Speaker 3: Bruce Springsteen. And then so now Brucepingsteen, it's like this
Speaker 3: back and forth. Now Bruce Bingstein is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I Thinkdent Trump and then typical Trump, where he
Speaker 1: writes through social never liked him, never liked his music,
Speaker 1: where his radical left politics. He's not a talented guy,
Speaker 1: just to push the obnoxious jerk who fervently supported crooked
Speaker 1: Joe Biden, a mentally incompetent fool and our worst ever
Speaker 1: president who came close to destroying our country. At what
Speaker 1: point does Trump give up this Joe Biden stuff. He's obsessed,
Speaker 1: I know, completely obsessed years. I know, I mean completely obsessed.
Speaker 1: So you know his philosophy. You hit me once, I
Speaker 1: hit you twice. So it's that's not Joe Biden. But
Speaker 1: certainly Donald Trump.
Speaker 3: Isn't he older than Bruce Trump?
Speaker 2: Oh he has to be.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I think yeah, I don't think Bruce Springsteen
Speaker 1: is what Trump is seventy eight something like that, seventy seven,
Speaker 1: seventy eighty Springsteen is, is he?
Speaker 2: Oh that's pretty old too.
Speaker 3: I mean Bruce Springsteen is seventy five, so just a
Speaker 3: few years apart.
Speaker 4: Yeah, hey, Kettle, maybe it's yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it seems supermature. Supermature.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well that's a word I would use to
Speaker 1: describe our president.
Speaker 2: Mature is right, there isn't it?
Speaker 3: Just name calling each other.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's great. I know, these stupid duty pants runs idiots.
Speaker 4: Vandenberg Space Force Space announced the US military will be
Speaker 4: test launching an unarmed nuclear missile while fingers crossed. Let's hope,
Speaker 4: so northern Santa Arbor County. It's going to be Wednesday morning.
Speaker 4: So if you're out here and you're up between twelve
Speaker 4: oh one am and five oh one am on May
Speaker 4: twenty first, you might be able to catch a glimpse
Speaker 4: of the minute Men three intercontinental Ballistic missile the ICBM.
Speaker 4: They're just evaluating current missile systems competency, that kind of thing.
Speaker 3: People are going to take video of it and go
Speaker 3: does anyone know what this is?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Exactly does anybody know? We're telling you right here in
Speaker 3: kfive all right, emergency contraception. You can now get it
Speaker 3: at seven eleven and other convenience stores. It's going to
Speaker 3: be right next to the condoms. They're actually just in
Speaker 3: the stores. I think. I don't know if it's all
Speaker 3: the stores or not, but there's a company that is
Speaker 3: releasing the Morning After pills in single doses. It started
Speaker 3: in Texas and now it's kind of spreading across the country.
Speaker 4: They should put that next to all the greasy weenies
Speaker 4: and then you.
Speaker 1: Know the big and I'll tell you what they do
Speaker 1: not they should not do, is advertise the big gulp
Speaker 1: next to these things. People could truly misunderstand that entire concept.
Speaker 4: Well that you wouldn't need it, if.
Speaker 2: That's precisely my point.
Speaker 4: Okay, Yeah, moving on planes, trains, automobiles, don't use any
Speaker 4: of them. Apparently in New Jersey. New Jersey transit train
Speaker 4: engineers are now going back to work tentative deal Sunday
Speaker 4: and their three day strike. Planes not working right, trains
Speaker 4: not working right, halted service for some one hundred thousand
Speaker 4: daily riders routes to Newark Airport, which wasn't the best
Speaker 4: to fly out of anyways.
Speaker 1: I think four hundred and fifty people who have shut
Speaker 1: down New Jersey transit.
Speaker 4: Oh it's Jersey, am I right?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean it's just last time.
Speaker 1: This was what forty years ago, the transit strike, last
Speaker 1: transit strike.
Speaker 2: That's another reason you want to move to New Jersey.
Speaker 4: Taylor Ham Sandwich is good.
Speaker 2: You know, when we are in Italy, do you know
Speaker 2: what Neil the wedding, et cetera. Do you know that
Speaker 2: in Italy. The calendar strikes for the rest of the year.
Speaker 1: You can actually look at a calendar and say, this
Speaker 1: industry is going to for example, railroad workers will be
Speaker 1: striking on June second to June fifth's, yeah.
Speaker 2: Well we should know that, we should know.
Speaker 1: And on top of that, for example, in the railroad strike,
Speaker 1: in those strikes, not only do you calendar them, but
Speaker 1: they also publish what trains will still be running. And
Speaker 1: this is the union publishing this stuff. It's just a
Speaker 1: whole world of strike. I just thought i'd mentioned that.

Speaker 2: obviously I eat like crap.
Speaker 1: You know, it's all Costco, you know, frozen stuff occasionally
Speaker 1: Trader Joe's. But no, I walk an hour a day
Speaker 1: where I used to walk an hour a day and
Speaker 1: can't do that with my boot. It's going to the
Speaker 1: doctor today. I don't know when they're gonna pull out this.
Speaker 1: You know, I've got a pin like a rod going
Speaker 1: through my toe and it's sticking out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's really pleasant.
Speaker 4: Sounds real healthy. I'll come over and just yeah, you
Speaker 4: sound healthy as Yeah.
Speaker 2: It's one of let me tell you what I you
Speaker 2: know what you would do. I'll tell you what you
Speaker 2: would do. You would take that rod and you would
Speaker 2: ping it like a tuning for it, just to make
Speaker 2: me feel good. I know that, all right? Moving on, all.
Speaker 4: Right, LF Todd's you know, the worst thing you want
Speaker 4: to hear when you're flying in a plane is hey,
Speaker 4: there's no pilot.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So two hundred and five people on board went without
Speaker 4: a pilot for ten minutes last year after the pilot
Speaker 4: went to the bathroom and the co pilot fainted when
Speaker 4: he was alone in the cockpit. So yeah, Frankfurt to Spain,
Speaker 4: February of twenty twenty four. So they did an investigation.
Speaker 4: It was an autopilot which saved everybody, but the co pilot,
Speaker 4: they said, did operate controls unintentionally.
Speaker 2: Well passed, I just straight off fainted.
Speaker 1: Now to be fair, I mean this is it was
Speaker 1: a neurological problem. The co pilot didn't know he had
Speaker 1: and he fainted. And you talk about as perfect. It
Speaker 1: comes down when the pilot is in the course of
Speaker 1: the toilet and then tries to get back in and
Speaker 1: he can't and the code doesn't work. But they took
Speaker 1: care of it pretty quickly because the pilot has a
Speaker 1: secret code, so it all works out. By the way,
Speaker 1: what's worse on Lufthansa than the pilot not being there?
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what's worse. You come aboard and the
Speaker 1: stewardess or the pilot says, all the Jews on the
Speaker 1: left hand side, please of the plane.
Speaker 2: That's worse.
Speaker 3: I thought you were going to say the food.
Speaker 2: Backs of Food's not bad. I fight Lufton's all the
Speaker 2: time to good airline.
Speaker 3: I like it all right. So protests are coming to
Speaker 3: Target on the anniversary of George Floyd's death. Leaders in
Speaker 3: the Black faith community are calling on their followers to
Speaker 3: boycott Target after its recent retreat from the DEI inclusion
Speaker 3: programs that they had originally announced. They're asking for everyone
Speaker 3: to boycott outside of Target stores a peaceful protest if
Speaker 3: you will, on May twenty fifth, that is the fifth
Speaker 3: anniversary of the murder of George Floyd.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Target is being particularly targeted because it was
Speaker 1: one of the first companies that dove into UH into
Speaker 1: dei UH after George Floyd, to its credit to for
Speaker 1: many people in the black community and those who had
Speaker 1: a real problem with the police in Minneapolis. By the way,
Speaker 1: they're in the same city that George Floyd. They're headquarters,
Speaker 1: same city Minneapolis where George Floyd was murdered. UH. And
Speaker 1: they're now one of the first companies to go back
Speaker 1: from d i UH caving into the Trump administration other
Speaker 1: conservatives because they are woke.
Speaker 2: And that's in UH, that's in.
Speaker 1: Quotation marks. And so they're coming back very quickly. And
Speaker 1: so let's just say they're targeted on both ends.
Speaker 4: Not funning by law because of the federal no, of course.
Speaker 1: Not but but but the Trump administration is figuring out
Speaker 1: a way to do it.
Speaker 2: Believe me. Malcolm X.
Speaker 4: Yes, the city of Los Angeles and veiled street signs
Speaker 4: dedicated to civil rights activist Malcolm X in Lamartin Park.
Speaker 4: It would have been his one hundredth birthday. They unveiled
Speaker 4: us on Saturday, and so this was followed by the
Speaker 4: thirty third Malcolm X Festival. This year's theme was human
Speaker 4: rights by any means necessary, Okay, and a five mile
Speaker 4: stretch of Crenshove Boulevard will now be known as Malcolm
Speaker 4: x Way.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's cool, Malcolm x Way.
Speaker 1: A lot of people the x ray text just thought
Speaker 1: it was the guy who announced it. I just had
Speaker 1: a big lisp, so when he said Malcolm x way,
Speaker 1: it was they just Misunderstood's all.
Speaker 4: Right, it's Monday heating up a car.
Speaker 3: We can't end on that. We can't end on that joke.
Speaker 3: We got to talk about the Bachelor Mansion getting him makeover.
Speaker 3: I can't let you go down like that. We got
Speaker 3: the Bachelor bill. Is this your favorite show? Do you
Speaker 3: like this show?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 3: Yeah, A big, big Bachelor fan.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think I've seen it once.
Speaker 1: Because those reality shows are well, I think they're ridiculous,
Speaker 1: but they do great because they cost nothing to make
Speaker 1: and they make a fortune.
Speaker 3: That's true. I hate to a bit of two. I'm
Speaker 3: not a fan of the Bachelor or most of those
Speaker 3: reality dating shows. But for those of you who are,
Speaker 3: the Bachelor Mansion is which has been home to the
Speaker 3: Bacheler for forty seasons, getting a big facelift, and you
Speaker 3: can also rent it out for six thousand dollars a
Speaker 3: night on Airbnb. That's fun. It's in Aurora Hills.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this look at the look at the premise.
Speaker 1: You've had bachelor and bachelorette and they go in there
Speaker 1: and do things with each other. And now it's uh,
Speaker 1: let's do a makeover. Right, we'll do interior design of
Speaker 1: the mansion and see who wins. And then that's going
Speaker 1: to be following up with people that run waste management
Speaker 1: and pick up garbage.
Speaker 2: That's the next show after that. See.
Speaker 3: I like those kind of shows, the home runner shows
Speaker 3: where you can shoot do a before or an after
Speaker 3: thing or whatever. But I don't like the dating ones
Speaker 3: where they make out in hot tubs.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but ten weeks after the renovation, it falls apart
Speaker 4: with the camera.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's actually true. That's actually true the way they
Speaker 1: do this. Okay, guys, we're done. Coming up, Trump's Big
Speaker 1: Bill advances. That big beautiful bill looks like it went
Speaker 1: through the ugly forest and got hit with a couple
Speaker 1: of branches. And I'll explain coming up.
