Speaker 1: You're listening to a wake up call on demand from
Speaker 1: KFI AM six fortys.
Speaker 2: I first spoke on a microphone nineteen eighty five. So
Speaker 2: what is that? Is that thirty seven years? I'm sorry?
Speaker 2: Is it thirty nine years now? Nineteen eighty five? To oh, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: thirty nine years? Good God. I think I'm gonna go
Speaker 2: in the other room and collapse. You know, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: take a break and change my diaper.
Speaker 1: Okay, and now handle on the news, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 2: Here's Bill handle. Okay. It is a Thursday morning, almost
Speaker 2: into the week, August eighth, and we've got well, first
Speaker 2: of all, I want to say hello. Let's start with Neil.
Speaker 2: Good morning, Neil, Neil, Neil. Oh, Neil's not here today,
Speaker 2: all right, Neil's at Disneyland, and he's probably how many rides? Ay,
Speaker 2: you're a Disneyland person considering, so how many rides can
Speaker 2: you actually get?
Speaker 3: Depending on how good you are planning, you can get
Speaker 3: a good ten or twelve minutes?
Speaker 2: Oh come on, yeah, ten or twelve.
Speaker 4: There's so much more to do.
Speaker 2: And see that's true, that's true. You know I went
Speaker 2: to Disneyland within a couple of years after it opened.
Speaker 2: Did I tell you the story of Disneyland and Marjorie No, Okay,
Speaker 2: Disneyland opened up in nineteen fifty five, and you know,
Speaker 2: Marjorie's one hundred and fifty years old, so they would
Speaker 2: and it's an amazing story, the Wonderful World of disney
Speaker 2: It was originally the Disneyland Show, and it was ABC.
Speaker 2: ABC was a new network. It kept the big stations
Speaker 2: and sold off all the crappy stations and now you
Speaker 2: have ABC, American Broadcasting Company that no one was watching.
Speaker 2: So they needed content. Disneyland opens up in July nineteen
Speaker 2: fifty five and the two companies, Disneyland desperately needed some publicity.
Speaker 2: ABC desperately needed content. So the two companies cut a
Speaker 2: deal that Disney would provide content Mickey Mouse Show the
Speaker 2: Disneyland Show, which turned out to be a Wonderful World
Speaker 2: of Disney at Morphed and it was a one hour
Speaker 2: commercial for Disneyland, all right. So that's how it opened
Speaker 2: up so early early those days, ABC would run commercials
Speaker 2: during the day because they had more inventory, you can imagine,
Speaker 2: and it was about Disneyland, and they would do the
Speaker 2: early rides and I mean, you know, that one of
Speaker 2: the rides was the Safari ride, what the Jungle Cruise cruise?
Speaker 2: That was it? That opened up the day that Disneyland
Speaker 2: opened and it's been real still open today. And one
Speaker 2: of the commercials, and I'm talking about a couple of years,
Speaker 2: three years after Disneyland opened up, they they did a
Speaker 2: commercial where there's this little girl who sees the hippopotamus
Speaker 2: and it's scared to death. She's maybe just a toddler
Speaker 2: and then grabs onto her older brother's leg so frightened.
Speaker 2: That was Marjorie.
Speaker 4: I love it, Yeah.
Speaker 2: And we try to get We tried to get the
Speaker 2: archives of that commercial. And in those days they didn't
Speaker 2: keep much. They had the kinescopes, which is the process
Speaker 2: they use for broadcasting. Uh, and it just it in
Speaker 2: terms of keeping in terms of keeping records, in other words,
Speaker 2: that we go on TV and a film camera would
Speaker 2: actually film that commercial on television and that's how they
Speaker 2: recorded and kept archives. And so in any case, so
Speaker 2: we're still looking for that commercial.
Speaker 4: That would be fun to have it wouldn't Somebody's got it.
Speaker 2: And here we are, I don't know how many years later,
Speaker 2: and every time Marjorie goes to Disneyland and sees the hippopotamus.
Speaker 2: She grabs a leg of who's ever seen.
Speaker 4: That's okay, I do the same thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what, I lost my clock here on
Speaker 2: my computer. I can't. I can't believe I do that.
Speaker 4: You know, how do you lose the clock?
Speaker 2: Because it's on the computer and I press buttons and
Speaker 2: I tried to get the newspapers and the zoom at
Speaker 2: the same time, and every time I press anything ive nine, Yeah, thanks,
Speaker 2: I'll figure it out.
Speaker 4: No, it's not it's six nine.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, you know. I lost it again. I
Speaker 2: can't believe I lost it. I'm not going to press
Speaker 2: a damn thing all right while I'm looking. Hello Cono,
Speaker 2: Hello Bill, okay, hello what I'm trying to find the
Speaker 2: clock and I just I can't do it.
Speaker 4: Maybe she could just get you a digital clock that's
Speaker 4: not on.
Speaker 2: I'm looking, but the digital clocks are so big. Oh no,
Speaker 2: I just lost you guys. Come on, Oh like, come on, guys,
Speaker 2: for god's sake, where's digital clock? I don't jeez, I
Speaker 2: don't see it. So you're you know you're gonna until
Speaker 2: I figure it out. Let me take my watch up.
Speaker 4: Well, we can hear you. That's all we really need.
Speaker 2: Yeah know when I can see you. But the three
Speaker 2: things that I desperately need is I need Obviously I
Speaker 2: have to see you. I need my clock. Those are
Speaker 2: the two things. And then my newspapers because I read
Speaker 2: the newspapers, which I did not this morning. I have
Speaker 2: the New York Times, the LA Times, of Wall Street journals.
Speaker 2: So by the end of the show, I'm done with them.
Speaker 2: So I have some idea of what the world's about.
Speaker 4: You know who has bigger problems than you? Who Taylor Swift?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, we're going to talk about Taylor Swift's. I
Speaker 2: mean end of the world stuff too is here. You know,
Speaker 2: World War three is about to explode. We know that
Speaker 2: the Eastern Seaboard is about to go underwater, and you know,
Speaker 2: get thousands of people that are drowned. But that's nothing
Speaker 2: compared to the Taylor Swift. Uh. The Taylor Swift concerts,
Speaker 2: three of them that have to uh that have been
Speaker 2: canceled because of terrorist threats. Did you see video of
Speaker 2: those people who were will not be able to people
Speaker 2: were flying in from America, uh to go And so
Speaker 2: today we're going to have a report on how many
Speaker 2: suicides there are because people missed the Taylor Swift concert
Speaker 2: because Swifties are crazy. I mean they're like her.
Speaker 4: Crying suicide.
Speaker 2: No, it's it's it's beyond loving her. It's well into
Speaker 2: mental illness. I mean there is. Yeah, but the Beatles
Speaker 2: fan were teenage girls. If you remember that, and that
Speaker 2: was it, you know. I mean I was a big
Speaker 2: Beatles fan. But you know, was I going to kill myself? No? No,
Speaker 2: although I have to tell you if it's a question
Speaker 2: between a Beatles fan, a Beatles show, and a Costco burrito,
Speaker 2: it's pretty close. Okay, Oh there it is. Clock.
Speaker 3: Hold on, hold on, Hold on, ladies and gentlemen, we're
Speaker 3: back in business.
Speaker 2: Okay, clock, okay, hold on clock almost as I'll do
Speaker 2: it now. It's a timer in five minutes. Damn. Okay,
Speaker 2: let's move on.
Speaker 3: Stuck in space, NASA officials say that the two astronauts
Speaker 3: who took a ride on the Boeing Star Line are
Speaker 3: up to the International Space Station and we're supposed to
Speaker 3: be there for a month. Well they've been there for
Speaker 3: like two months now because they got up there on
Speaker 3: June sixth, and now NASA is saying they might not
Speaker 3: be able to return until February of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 4: That's if they have to catch a ride on a
Speaker 4: SpaceX crew.
Speaker 2: Direct, you're gonna have to actually get an elon musk ride. Boy,
Speaker 2: that's not embarrassing for either NASA and more importantly, that's
Speaker 2: not embarrassing for Boeing. I'll tell you what. They're scared
Speaker 2: to death. Those astronauts get on the board that spacecraft
Speaker 2: start going back to Earth and the door blows off,
Speaker 2: and NASA is saying, ain't gonna happen on our watch.
Speaker 2: So thank you to Boweing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, back off Arrowhead. So Arrowhead or the company
Speaker 3: has been pulling water out of the San Bernardino Mountains
Speaker 3: since nineteen o six. There are springs up in the
Speaker 3: mountains and Arrowheads been bottling that water and selling it.
Speaker 4: Well. Now the federal government is saying.
Speaker 3: And they've decided not to renew a permit the US
Speaker 3: for a service is denied Blue Tritons permit to extract
Speaker 3: water after environmental activists claim that the removal of the
Speaker 3: water is harming wildlife.
Speaker 2: Now look at this, what a business model this is.
Speaker 2: Can you imagine any manufacturing or service provider where you
Speaker 2: pay nothing for the base product. Let's say your auto company,
Speaker 2: your manufacturing cars, you pay nothing for the metal or
Speaker 2: the electronics, or the steering wheel or the wheels. This
Speaker 2: is arrowhead. They pay nothing for the water, or virtually nothing.
Speaker 2: I can't even imagine how much they don't pay to
Speaker 2: the FEDS for the water. And so the natural spring water,
Speaker 2: I guess, is going to be natural tap water. You know,
Speaker 2: there are a lot of companies that basically just filter
Speaker 2: water and here you go, here's a bottle of water.
Speaker 4: But think how high their water bills must be.
Speaker 2: You know what, don't know how expensive water is when
Speaker 2: they sell it to you in a bottle for three
Speaker 2: bucks a bottle.
Speaker 3: All right, another day, another attack on Metro. A man
Speaker 3: has been arrested after he allegedly attacked a woman at
Speaker 3: a Metro station in Pasadena. Happened on the A Lines
Speaker 3: Allen station about five forty yesterday yesterday morning. According to witnesses,
Speaker 3: the guy punched the woman, knocked her to the ground,
Speaker 3: dragged her onto the dirt, kicked her onto the tracks,
Speaker 3: and then dragged her out onto the two ten freeway
Speaker 3: and then he ran off.
Speaker 4: And now they've arrested him.
Speaker 2: Okay. You know what we have to do amy is
Speaker 2: sort of change the way we approach news, and that is,
Speaker 2: I think, at a given time every day, you do
Speaker 2: the today's metro attack report, and you simply do the
Speaker 2: report as to how many people were attacked on metro
Speaker 2: and what happened and if anybody died. Good news is
Speaker 2: no one died today, And it's uh, every day. When's
Speaker 2: the last time we didn't do a.
Speaker 4: Metro attack yesterday? Although the attack happened yesterday.
Speaker 2: Okay, so we missed the timing. Okay, but it was
Speaker 2: a metro attack yesterday, and it's early. It's only six
Speaker 2: twenty two or six twenty three, where I think it's
Speaker 2: what six twenty one. We're on this minute delay business.
Speaker 2: In case I say something wrong and you say something.
Speaker 4: Wrong, Oh, don't look me into that.
Speaker 2: It's the broadcasting a little inside baseball. I thought i'd
Speaker 2: share with everything. I share everything with everybody.
Speaker 4: I know.
Speaker 2: I've gotten such grief from management over the years, saying
Speaker 2: you have to share everything. I go, Yeah, of course
Speaker 2: I do. Well if people are if they deign to listen,
Speaker 2: and they're kind enough to listen, all right, you know
Speaker 2: what I'll share what's going on? Okay, let's continue on.
Speaker 4: Okay, wait, there's more speaking of Metro.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, so down in Long Beach then or over
Speaker 3: in Long Beach, a man has been shot by police.
Speaker 3: This happened near Fifth Street and Pacific Avenue at the
Speaker 3: Metro station, and witnesses say a man was walking near
Speaker 3: the station and was seen taking a gun out of
Speaker 3: his backpack and putting it in his waistband. Officers confronted him.
Speaker 3: There was some sort of confrontation there, and then police
Speaker 3: shot him.
Speaker 2: This is actually good news for the police department because
Speaker 2: they can shut down their firing ranges for practice and
Speaker 2: just send their the practice teams to the Metro and
Speaker 2: here you go, and you're going to get some really
Speaker 2: good practice. It's pretty crazy. It really is the same.
Speaker 2: Would anybody go on Metro? I mean I would not
Speaker 2: get near a Metro line. I remember when Metro first
Speaker 2: opened up and we did a whole story the first
Speaker 2: one opened up, I don't remember how many years ago,
Speaker 2: and a bunch of us had to report and KFI
Speaker 2: I went there. It was all homeless people, that was it.
Speaker 2: Even back then, it was all yeah, it started as
Speaker 2: a homelessly homeless encampment where people just lived on the
Speaker 2: Metro buses. It was like a cruise ship. It was
Speaker 2: a moving hotel that went back and forth from station
Speaker 2: to station and you could stop. You oh, you know
Speaker 2: what it is. It's like those drive and hop off
Speaker 2: buses you do in Hollywood that it goes around and
Speaker 2: you can get off anytime and get back on. That's
Speaker 2: what Metro was like for homeless people.
Speaker 4: I didn't realize it had always been that.
Speaker 2: Way, like, oh, yeah, no, it's from day one.
Speaker 3: There was an issue with that dare up in the
Speaker 3: Bay Area, the Bay Area Rapid Transit system that was
Speaker 3: really really nice when it opened, Like my mom used
Speaker 3: to drop us off and we'd go and ride the
Speaker 3: bar all day like because that's what it was clean
Speaker 3: and it was fast and it was fun.
Speaker 2: And well, if you fly into Oakland, you fly into
Speaker 2: SFO San Francisco International or which is way south of
Speaker 2: the city, or you can go to Oakland across the
Speaker 2: Bay and it's the same ride. And flying into Oakland
Speaker 2: is a lot cheaper, always has been than into San Francisco.
Speaker 2: And then you would get on the Metro and the
Speaker 2: problem is when you got on the Metro station which
Speaker 2: was about a mile away from the airport or a
Speaker 2: mile and a half. You had to get on a
Speaker 2: bus and then you had to get off the bus
Speaker 2: and go to the metro station. And the metro station
Speaker 2: there was the station of death. It was such a
Speaker 2: sketchy area that you would good chance you would die
Speaker 2: because it was that kind of area, and I always
Speaker 2: enjoyed it. Well, I didn't enjoy the death part, but
Speaker 2: I really enjoyed the ride on bart Then I think
Speaker 2: it's now to the airport, so you don't have nearly
Speaker 2: as much fun.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So, speaking of the death part, would you want to
Speaker 3: know if you are going to die? No, Well, the
Speaker 3: family of a French explorer who died in that submersible implosion,
Speaker 3: remember it was going down to see the Titanic and
Speaker 3: it imploded. The family has filed a more than fifty
Speaker 3: million dollar lawsuit saying the crew experienced terror and mental
Speaker 3: anguish before the disaster, and accused the subs operator of
Speaker 3: gross negligence.
Speaker 2: Yeah, now that's interesting. The lawsuit for wrongful death may
Speaker 2: work or not work, but this is emotional distress that
Speaker 2: they're also really suing for, and I think it's quite
Speaker 2: a lawsuit. The lawsuit says the crew may well have
Speaker 2: heard fiber the carbon fiber's crackling noise grow more intense
Speaker 2: as the water pressure pressed on the titan's hole. They
Speaker 2: could have heard it. Okay, not necessarily hurt it, but
Speaker 2: they could have. And I get those questions all the
Speaker 2: time on handle on the law. I could have been
Speaker 2: in an accident. I could have been hit. I could
Speaker 2: have been beat up when I was in the gang area.
Speaker 2: Were you well, no, but I could have. And then
Speaker 2: I always share exactly the same philosophy of law. And
Speaker 2: this is why I'm such a great lawyer. And that is,
Speaker 2: if my grandmother had balls, she'd be my grandfather. But
Speaker 2: she doesn't, so therefore she could have been, but she's not.
Speaker 2: And that's the concept here.
Speaker 4: Ain't gonna fly, Okay, Debbie's not done yet.
Speaker 3: Tropical Storm Debbie has made its second landfall in the US.
Speaker 4: It happened early this morning.
Speaker 3: This time it came on to shore in South Carolina
Speaker 3: with fifty mile an hour winds, torrential rains spawning tornadoes,
Speaker 3: and they're expecting some pretty severe flooding and it's crawling
Speaker 3: along in about five miles per hour.
Speaker 4: It was a.
Speaker 3: Category one hurricane on Monday when I first came ashore
Speaker 3: in Florida. It's lost some power since then, but it's
Speaker 3: dumped more than a foot of rain over parts of Florida, Georgia,
Speaker 3: and South Carolina.
Speaker 4: It's killed at least five people.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a bad one. It's about well. We knew
Speaker 2: it was going to be a bad one, and we
Speaker 2: didn't know early on where it was going to go,
Speaker 2: because originally I thought maybe it was going to go
Speaker 2: into the Gulf Midway, where we could have said, Debbie
Speaker 2: does Dallas, and unfortunately we are not a I would
Speaker 2: have loved for that to have happened.
Speaker 4: It was looking good for a while.
Speaker 3: Then the Dow dipped again, So the Dow Jones Industrial
Speaker 3: Average was trading up is more than four hundred points yesterday,
Speaker 3: looking like we were going to have another day of
Speaker 3: rallying after that one thousand point loss on Tuesday or
Speaker 3: on Monday actually, but nope, it fell, so it ended
Speaker 3: up down two hundred and thirty four points yesterday.
Speaker 2: So it looks like we are right there on the
Speaker 2: precipice of the recession, or at least the y mcdownturn sore.
Speaker 2: The happening. We don't know, and then we kind of
Speaker 2: saying we're gonna have a soft landing, which we have
Speaker 2: not had. I mean, this economy has been roaring.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 2: And this also means if there's this much of a
Speaker 2: slow down, if the stocks drop dramatically and stay there,
Speaker 2: even though it's there in the stock market is insanely high,
Speaker 2: it's still up for the year.
Speaker 4: It's still up over thirty nine thousand.
Speaker 2: I know. It's I mean, it's nuts, it really is.
Speaker 2: And then we'll see ah an interest rate drop by
Speaker 2: the Feds, probably September when the next meet or in
Speaker 2: an emergency they can do it immediately, but that's not
Speaker 2: going to happen.
Speaker 3: So it was a year ago today that Lahina was
Speaker 3: almost wiped completely off the map.
Speaker 4: Remember the flames, oh yeah.
Speaker 3: Started on Maui and just tore through Lahina and basically
Speaker 3: destroyed this small historic town.
Speaker 4: But researchers are saying.
Speaker 3: That they are optim mystic because the reefs, coral reefs,
Speaker 3: are recovering from the impacts of the wildfire.
Speaker 4: And that big tree is it a banyon tree?
Speaker 2: What's the yes, the big it is it's a Banyan
Speaker 2: tree in the middle of town or the middle of
Speaker 2: the historic here.
Speaker 4: It's growing and it's beautiful.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Lahina started in the eighteen hundreds as a whaling
Speaker 2: town and the history of it it's incredible and a
Speaker 2: lot of those buildings that date back to those days.
Speaker 2: I mean, you talk about history, it's absolutely great. Anybody
Speaker 2: read James Mitchener's Hawaii, which is a phenomenal book, all
Speaker 2: thousand pages of it, and it is based Lahaina is
Speaker 2: a huge part of it. Also, I don't know if
Speaker 2: you ever been to Molokai, the leper colony. Oh, that's
Speaker 2: a lot of fun going there.
Speaker 4: You can are there still?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, there's still there are still lepers there. Yeah,
Speaker 2: yeah there or last I went, I don't know if
Speaker 2: they stay. If you stay there, you know, the lepers
Speaker 2: who stay there, you sort of have to have leprosy
Speaker 2: is it's paid for all paid for by the government.
Speaker 2: The government gives them a stipend and it's they're supported
Speaker 2: one hundred percent by the government. But you have to
Speaker 2: live there. And today leprosy is completely controlled. You know,
Speaker 2: it's chronic. You know, fingers and appendages don't fall off anymore, which,
Speaker 2: by the way, that's that is hugely entertaining with someone.
Speaker 2: Schwantz literally falls off when they have leprosy. Okay, let's
Speaker 2: just move on.
Speaker 3: Okay, let's see the war rages on in Ukraine. Russian
Speaker 3: forces are battling Ukrainian troops for a third day after
Speaker 3: they smashed through the Russian border in the Kursk region.
Speaker 3: So it was one of the biggest Ukrainian attacks on
Speaker 3: Russia in the two year war. About a thousand Ukrainian
Speaker 3: troops rammed through the Russian border early on the morning
Speaker 3: of August sixth, with tanks and armored vehicles and covered
Speaker 3: by swarms of drones and artillery from this from the sky.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Vladimir Putin calls it a major provocation, as if
Speaker 2: the attack on Ukraine was not a major provocation. Right.
Speaker 3: I just think it's amazing how they spin these things
Speaker 3: and things that we're going to believe it.
Speaker 2: It's absolutely crazy and it's and I'll tell you what
Speaker 2: I sort of didn't understand and why Putin didn't do this.
Speaker 2: Usually when a country attacks a neighboring country, much like
Speaker 2: what the Nazis did and other countries, it's because they're
Speaker 2: there to liberate the people in that country, because they're
Speaker 2: under the In this case, it would be the Ukrainian
Speaker 2: government is treating the Russians on the eastern part of Ukraine,
Speaker 2: that is with the border with Russia and treating him.
Speaker 2: So the Ukrainian people who speak Russian begged Russia to
Speaker 2: come in and save them. That's the way they spin.
Speaker 2: And it's just it's horrific, it really is. You're absolutely right.
Speaker 3: Amy, Costco's cracking down on membership moochers.
Speaker 4: So you've probably seen it. You may have even tried
Speaker 4: it us talking about to me or to the audience,
Speaker 4: to the audience.
Speaker 3: Using somebody else's card to get into Costco. Okay, well,
Speaker 3: Costco's cracking down on that. So they're doing it in
Speaker 3: a kinder, gentler way. But instead of like calling you
Speaker 3: out for it, they're just having you scan the Costco
Speaker 3: card before you go into the store.
Speaker 2: Yeah, today, yesterday, It's exactly what happened to me. Exactly.
Speaker 2: They put it in a couple of days ago. And
Speaker 2: there's the scanning and you put your card up and
Speaker 2: it scans. Although there are people right there at this point,
Speaker 2: standing membership people, and as you walk in, they point
Speaker 2: to the scanner and go here, scan here, as if
Speaker 2: you're a special needs customer. Yeah, I know what a
Speaker 2: scanner looks like, Thank you very much, but they still
Speaker 2: I mean that is now the thing. You scan the
Speaker 2: card to get in the door, and if you are
Speaker 2: either it is expired or let's say you don't have
Speaker 2: a card, they gently move you over to the membership
Speaker 2: line and go here, why don't you sign up as
Speaker 2: a member?
Speaker 4: Easy, easy, psy yep.
Speaker 3: So much for athletes treating their bodies as temples. An
Speaker 3: Australian Olympic hockey field player or Olympic field hockey player,
Speaker 3: has been arrested for buying cocaine in Paris. He's been
Speaker 3: taken into custody then released, and he put out a
Speaker 3: statement and said I would like to apologize for what
Speaker 3: has occurred. I made a terrible mistake and take full responsibility.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he made a mistake. Of the good news is
Speaker 2: he did it in Paris and not in Russia. So yeah,
Speaker 2: I wonder if he would do, you know, having, you know,
Speaker 2: having dabbled in the world of cocaine just before I
Speaker 2: went into drug rehab years ago, I would guess he
Speaker 2: would do better on coke, nice buzzy high.
Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, just saying Zell's under investigation. Apparently there's some
Speaker 3: problems with all this money going back and forth, and
Speaker 3: so the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is investigating major US
Speaker 3: banks for how they're handling customer funds on the so
Speaker 3: called peer to peer payment platform called Zell.
Speaker 2: YEP.
Speaker 4: It involves JP, Morgan, Chase, Bank of America, and Wells Farga.
Speaker 2: And at seven o'clock top of the hour, I'm doing
Speaker 2: this story because there is a lot here and a
Speaker 2: lot of people use Zel, including me. I use Zel,
Speaker 2: I do too.
Speaker 4: I haven't heard it. I've never had any fraud.
Speaker 3: But now, before you do it, have you noticed that
Speaker 3: now the screen pops up and you're supposed to like say, yes,
Speaker 3: I read all these warnings.
Speaker 4: Yes, it lets you do it.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And you have to be pretty dumb to get scammed.
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, there are a couple of rules
Speaker 2: that you follow, and they're not that hard to follow,
Speaker 2: and the chances of you get he scammed or minuscule.
Speaker 2: But it's the numbers of the amount of money that's
Speaker 2: transferred on Zell is so enormous that even a tiny
Speaker 2: little fraction is a very big, big, big number. And
Speaker 2: that's coming up the top of the hour.
Speaker 3: The Wild and Crazy Guy doesn't want to be Tim Walls.
Speaker 3: So Lourene Michaels from Saturday Night Live apparently called Steve
Speaker 3: Martin and said, Hey, Steve, do you want to impersonate
Speaker 3: Tim Walls? Who is the new vice presidential Canada or
Speaker 3: will be when it's official. And Steve Martin said, nah, thanks,
Speaker 3: but no thanks, he said, he said he turned it
Speaker 3: down because he's not an impressionist, and he said he
Speaker 3: would struggle with trying to impersonate well. And he said,
Speaker 3: you need somebody who can really just nail him.
Speaker 2: And he doesn't look like him particularly, he's lot thinner.
Speaker 2: It's just because he wears glasses and he has white hair,
Speaker 2: and I guess that's Tim Wallas occasionally does that. But
Speaker 2: I think you're going to well, I hold that back.
Speaker 2: If Donald Trump gets elected, you are going to see
Speaker 2: Alec Baldwin coming back as Donald Trump on SNL. However,
Speaker 2: my guess is he won't. They will not bring him
Speaker 2: back for fear that he would shoot one of the
Speaker 2: camera people.
Speaker 3: Okay, moving on to happier things. The governor has pronounced
Speaker 3: or proclaimed that today is California Panda Day. Because the
Speaker 3: giant pandas are making their public debut at the San
Speaker 3: Diego Zoo today.
Speaker 2: Love it, that's sweet.
Speaker 4: It is sweet.
Speaker 3: They haven't been here for a while. These are the
Speaker 3: first it's the first new set of pandas to come
Speaker 3: to the US in twenty one years. Remember we had
Speaker 3: like a little tiff with China and they said, okay,
Speaker 3: give us our pandacea.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, they're on loan. China does not give pandas
Speaker 2: to anybody. They loan them, They actually lease them. And
Speaker 2: these what mu gu Guy panda is one of them.
Speaker 2: And then if there are orange pandas. By the way,
Speaker 2: did you know that, actually they're called the orange chicken pandas,
Speaker 2: but no, they really are orange pandas. Now people will
Speaker 2: wait five hours in line to go see the pandas.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, the lines are gonna be I mean.
Speaker 2: They're going to be enormous. And I would never wait
Speaker 2: five hours. Now, I'm gonna give you a little hint.
Speaker 2: And I know, you know I'm being obnoxious here, I'm
Speaker 2: you know, being self arrandizing. If you ever go to
Speaker 2: the Beijing Zoo, if you ever ever have a chance
Speaker 2: to go to China, you want to go to the
Speaker 2: panda exhibit because there they have hot and cold running pandas.
Speaker 2: There are pandas all over the place. They roll around.
Speaker 2: You have pandas until you can't see anymore pandas. You
Speaker 2: get sick of pandas over there.
Speaker 4: You'd never get sick of it.
Speaker 3: And I wanted you to know that. I was like,
Speaker 3: is there really an orange chicken panda?
Speaker 2: So I look a no, look orange pandas.
Speaker 3: There are orange pandas. There's not orange chicken pandas.
Speaker 2: Well, well, they know they nose e chickens. So it's
Speaker 2: fair to.
Speaker 3: Say that when I googled it, I got Panda Express
Speaker 3: and orange chicken Pop.
Speaker 2: Well, okay, that's some orange. The orange pandas don't eat bamboo, okay.
Speaker 4: But the pandas here eat like forty pounds of bamboo
Speaker 4: a day.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And the zeo says they've got eight different varieties, so
Speaker 3: the pandas will have different bamboos to choose from.
Speaker 2: It's like choosing from column A collum b or you
Speaker 2: go to panda, you go to PF chains and you
Speaker 2: can choose on the menu. It's a there's a there's
