Speaker 1: You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from kf I
Speaker 1: AM six forty.
Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen, Here's Wayne Resnick KFIM six forty Live
Speaker 2: Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Wayne Resnick here filling in
Speaker 2: for Bill Handle, who's on vacation. He is back on Monday.
Speaker 2: Ann is here, the producer of the show. Good morning morning.
Speaker 2: I don't you really you have a thing about what's
Speaker 2: the what? How do I describe this? You were wearing
Speaker 2: your Padres gear in the building. Yeah, even though it's
Speaker 2: a Dodgers building. Now I know you stopped wearing the
Speaker 2: Padres gear.
Speaker 3: It's a Dodger's office, not building.
Speaker 2: Will I don't know. You walk around and now you've
Speaker 2: stopped wearing the Padres gear because they're out. And now
Speaker 2: I see you're wearing a hoodie from let's just say,
Speaker 2: a company that I heeart would rather not.
Speaker 4: Deal with.
Speaker 5: Really, I think so, ah, well, you know what, they
Speaker 5: gave me a free sweatshirt and my heart didn't.
Speaker 2: Well, this is actually an excellent point, you know. I
Speaker 2: don't want to brag, and Neil can back me up
Speaker 2: on this. That it used to be. It used to
Speaker 2: be there was wag a plenty, and we were lousy.
Speaker 4: With swag at one point.
Speaker 2: Yeah, actually there was a there was a do they
Speaker 2: still have that locker space downstairs in the parking garage.
Speaker 4: And you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but okay, it used to be full though, just
Speaker 2: wall to ceiling with swag. I don't know what's down
Speaker 2: there now. Maybe a couple of rats and an old
Speaker 2: Stephanie Miller mug.
Speaker 4: But in both.
Speaker 6: Never mind, in both circumstances, Uh, the.
Speaker 4: Rats have KFI logos on them though. Oh that's good.
Speaker 2: There there there were mugs and T shirts and hoodies
Speaker 2: and bumper stickers and I mean there was tons, tons
Speaker 2: and tons and tons of swag just laying around, just
Speaker 2: like the attitude was like, we have so much of
Speaker 2: this stuff, just we're just throwing it everywhere. Just please
Speaker 2: grab some of it.
Speaker 4: I'm taking it home.
Speaker 6: You remember Wednesday's Wayne, we'd have swag fights and we'd
Speaker 6: just throw swag at each other.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know.
Speaker 2: I tried to be nice about it and stick to
Speaker 2: T shirts and hoodies and you were throwing mugs.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and pen's.
Speaker 6: Progressive, Well, you wanted to win the You know, It's
Speaker 6: funny when I was the marketing director. If you remember,
Speaker 6: I had like these shelves behind my desk that were
Speaker 6: filled with swag. People could come in and grab shirts
Speaker 6: if they needed them or yes, just tons of it.
Speaker 6: Now now I think you sign it out like a
Speaker 6: garage bathroom key, and then you can use the mug
Speaker 6: for a little bit and then you got to bring
Speaker 6: it back.
Speaker 2: Yes, we're all. We're all sharing one Gary and Shannon
Speaker 2: mug and one Tim Conway junior pen ballpoint pen.
Speaker 6: All the jump belts wag has a cross out through
Speaker 6: Ken's name.
Speaker 4: We just we have a.
Speaker 2: All right, anyway, good morning to you. Uh that was
Speaker 2: Neil and anyway, and listen, I totally get it. I
Speaker 2: totally get it. If you can, if you can get
Speaker 2: clothing for free, that's nice clothing. You're gonna wear it
Speaker 2: regardless of loyalties, right, And it doesn't. It does not.
Speaker 2: It's not reflective of your loyalties. No, it's reflective who
Speaker 2: gave you free clothing? Exactly, Thank you.
Speaker 4: I agree.
Speaker 2: Amy King is here, Amo King, Oh, giving us the news.
Speaker 3: Good morning.
Speaker 2: I love it when there's breaking news and you are here.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 2: One of the things that we're watching today is some
Speaker 2: kind of a press conference slash rally in front of
Speaker 2: the Criminal Courts Building in downtown LA on behalf of
Speaker 2: the Menendez brothers, and I believe KFI News Michael Monks
Speaker 2: is going to be there covering it. And I bring
Speaker 2: this up because unfortunately, because we're on so early, I
Speaker 2: doubt it's happening while we're on the air, so we
Speaker 2: won't really have we will not have the pleasure of
Speaker 2: scooping it for you. But I'm sure, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: when you know, when it happens, KFI News will be
Speaker 2: all over whatever whatever it is, and we'll talk about
Speaker 2: that in a little bit, including here on Handle on
Speaker 2: the News, Kno good morning running the board. I must say,
Speaker 2: the faces of people when there are momentary glitches in
Speaker 2: the networking is priceless. It is, it is. It's massive
Speaker 2: panic time. And the thing about it is this, there's
Speaker 2: nothing that can be done. It used to be, and Neil,
Speaker 2: you've been around long enough to know this. In radio,
Speaker 2: it used to be you had a microphone and you
Speaker 2: had a cable and then it just went directly into
Speaker 2: an antenna and broadcast to the war world and that
Speaker 2: was it. And if there were any problems, you only
Speaker 2: had three things to look at, a microphone, a cable,
Speaker 2: and the antenna. But now you have, like our show,
Speaker 2: everybody is in a different studio room, and you've got
Speaker 2: all the kinds of other audio elements that are played,
Speaker 2: and you've got tons and tons of cabling that goes
Speaker 2: everywhere and around and through to connect everybody back and forth.
Speaker 2: And this is not just in radio. Everything has become
Speaker 2: so technologically complex that it has eclipsed our ability to
Speaker 2: understand it or to troubleshoot it. The technology itself is
Speaker 2: craftier than our ability to understand everything about how it works.
Speaker 2: And this is why we are forever rebooting things, because
Speaker 2: it's we throw up our hands and and go, He'll
Speaker 2: reboot it, And meanwhile.
Speaker 6: They're gremlin You remember the Jeff Levy Show. Sure Peter
Speaker 6: Guy back in the day, Yes, rest his soul. That
Speaker 6: used to be his answer to just about every question.
Speaker 6: Try a dry reboot, yes, because that's all we have.
Speaker 2: And I've wondered if the tech you know they talk
Speaker 2: about AI is going to become so smart and then
Speaker 2: it could maybe even turn against us, which I don't know,
Speaker 2: but I feel already there are certain things going on
Speaker 2: with our tech, not AI. I'm talking about our regular
Speaker 2: like internet computers, your Wi Fi routers, all these things,
Speaker 2: and there are little gremlins in there, and they are
Speaker 2: sentient and they like to mess things up, and then
Speaker 2: they love it when we go, oh, we better reboot.
Speaker 2: And once in a while they go, you know what,
Speaker 2: he's rebooted five times. Let's stop it for a while.
Speaker 2: Let's cut it out for a while and let him
Speaker 2: think that rebooting thing five times worked. And they go
Speaker 2: have a smoke, you know, and then they come back
Speaker 2: later and they start up their shenanigans again. And I
Speaker 2: do think, if we want to make this seriousness for
Speaker 2: a second, I do think we're at the point now
Speaker 2: where we are capable. We're absolutely capable of creating technology
Speaker 2: that we don't fully understand, and they can get ahead
Speaker 2: of us. And I want to sound like a luttite.
Speaker 2: It's not like I'm going to be like a ludite
Speaker 2: and come in there and smash, you know, the consoles
Speaker 2: or anything. But I think it's time to start thinking
Speaker 2: about that.
Speaker 6: A small little four hundred square foot cabin somewhere up
Speaker 6: in the mountain, start whittling, yeah, thinking about how the world.
Speaker 2: You never have to. When was the last time you
Speaker 2: had to reboot your whitlet knife.
Speaker 4: I'd be an excellent point.
Speaker 2: You never have to reboot an actual book. You're never
Speaker 2: reading a book and then you're like, I can't turn
Speaker 2: the page on this book. Oh, reboot, it doesn't happen.
Speaker 2: The Biden administration has told Israel it better start allowing
Speaker 2: a lot more humanitarian aid into Gaza or we will
Speaker 2: stop giving them weapons. Now, part of that may be
Speaker 2: a philosophical belief on the part of the Biden administration
Speaker 2: that this is the right thing to do. But another
Speaker 2: reason this is happening is because, guess what. The laws
Speaker 2: of the United States prohibit us giving military aid to
Speaker 2: countries that block the delivery of US humanitarian assistance. So
Speaker 2: if we are sending stuff to Gaza and Israel's not
Speaker 2: letting it through, we're technically not allowed to be giving
Speaker 2: them weapons. So Secretary of State Blincoln Defense Secretary Austin
Speaker 2: sent this, I assume strongly worded letter to their counterparts
Speaker 2: over in Israel. And this comes right after Netan Yahoo
Speaker 2: was talking about, Oh, here's what we're going to do.
Speaker 2: We're going to tell anybody to get out of Gaza.
Speaker 2: And then we're gonna conclude anybody who's still there is Hamas,
Speaker 2: and then we're not gonna let any aid through. And
Speaker 2: that's probably why we're doing this now, because Yaho's talking
Speaker 2: about a very extreme move, even within the context of
Speaker 2: all the other stuff that both sides have been doing,
Speaker 2: very extreme. And I think that's when the United States
Speaker 2: said no, no, no, no, no, we better slow his role
Speaker 2: big time. You got to give him a reason. No
Speaker 2: more weapons from the US. Pretty good reason, he said
Speaker 2: over and over.
Speaker 4: Though he's gonna do whatever he wants to do, regardless
Speaker 4: he has.
Speaker 2: But if he if suddenly he's deprived of assistance that
Speaker 2: he requires, he will have to change his tune. You know,
Speaker 2: these kinds of leaders always talk tough, They always talk tough,
Speaker 2: but there's still ways to get to them, to vake them,
Speaker 2: to cut it out.
Speaker 3: Well.
Speaker 5: People have been voting like crazy. A record number of
Speaker 5: early votes have been cast in Georgia. Residents are heading
Speaker 5: to the polls for the battleground state voting. More than
Speaker 5: three hundred and twenty eight thousand ballots were cast yesterday,
Speaker 5: which was the first day that they couldn't cast ballots
Speaker 5: early ahead of the election. The first day. Previous record
Speaker 5: was one hundred and thirty six thousand.
Speaker 2: That's more than double. Yeah. Wow, I guess everybody knew
Speaker 2: it was more than You didn't need to need me
Speaker 2: to tell you it was more than double. Show you
Speaker 2: have to show I'm smart and math because I got
Speaker 2: a D minus in college algebra, which is unimpressive. So
Speaker 2: now every time I know any math, I like to
Speaker 2: show it. This has been a trend all across the
Speaker 2: country that on the first day of early voting, it's
Speaker 2: different in every state. On that first day, they are
Speaker 2: seeing record numbers across the country. So some group of
Speaker 2: people is fired up more so than usual. Because votes
Speaker 2: are private, I guess we cannot conclude what type of
Speaker 2: voter is the most fired up, but I suspect it's
Speaker 2: all the same side. I believe that. I don't think
Speaker 2: it's equal one side and the other side equally fired
Speaker 2: up to get out and vote at their earliest possible day.
Speaker 4: We shall see.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, when the ultimate results come in, we'll probably
Speaker 2: be able to look backwards and see what was going
Speaker 2: on now.
Speaker 6: Davon Durrell Deed thirty nine. He worked at the Santa
Speaker 6: Monica College. He was accused of a shooting on Monday
Speaker 6: and at around ten pm there at the Santa Monica
Speaker 6: College Center for Media and Design. According to the Santa
Speaker 6: Monica Police Department, Well, he was involved in a standoff
Speaker 6: with law enforcement and he died of a self inflicted
Speaker 6: gunshot wound during the standoff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they found his car. Yeah, the shooting was Monday night.
Speaker 2: They found his car yesterday afternoon. There was a little pursuit,
Speaker 2: a standoff, and then he was found deceased in the car.
Speaker 6: The sucky part, I mean, it's all sucky, but you
Speaker 6: look back to twenty eleven, Durell was arrested on suspicion
Speaker 6: of attempted murder. In twenty nineteen, he was arrested for
Speaker 6: allegedly a lleged assault with a deadly weapon, but his
Speaker 6: only convictions were for misdemeanor property crimes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have a thing in this country where arrests
Speaker 2: don't really count in terms of taking action against anybody.
Speaker 2: I mean, except that they can prosecute you for the
Speaker 2: crime you were arrested for, but in terms of any
Speaker 2: other things, you can't really use an arrest history against
Speaker 2: the person. So the idea that they could have for example,
Speaker 2: forbidden him from having guns or something like that. You
Speaker 2: can't unless he had been convicted of something. But obviously
Speaker 2: now we know he was a problem person long before
Speaker 2: this event.
Speaker 4: Oh well, I'm glad we figured that out.
Speaker 2: I know, a little too late, a little too late.
Speaker 2: Oh So, remember the guy who was arrested after allegedly
Speaker 2: making threats against FEMA employees while armed with a handgun
Speaker 2: and having a couple of other guns in his vehicle.
Speaker 2: He is now speaking out, and this is his side
Speaker 2: of the story. He says he didn't threaten anybody, although
Speaker 2: he did post on Facebook that you know, I hear
Speaker 2: that people aren't getting the help they need. We're done
Speaker 2: playing games. It's time to show who we are and
Speaker 2: what we believe. They want to screw our citizens. Now
Speaker 2: we return the favor. We the people are seeking volunteers
Speaker 2: to join us and overtake the FEMA site in Lake Lure.
Speaker 2: So but he says he really wasn't threatening anybody. He
Speaker 2: really thought FEMA was refusing to help people, and then
Speaker 2: he went over there and he saw that that was
Speaker 2: not the case. And then he spent the day volunteering
Speaker 2: and helping. And yes, he happened to have a gun
Speaker 2: on his hip, but that's his Second Amendment right, and hey,
Speaker 2: I'm a reasonable person and I'm not dangerous. He's still
Speaker 2: charged with what they call going armed to the terror
Speaker 2: of the public. That law must have been written one
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty years ago. I guess today we would
Speaker 2: say having a gun and scaring of people, scaring a
Speaker 2: lot of people.
Speaker 3: I like the old way of saying it better going.
Speaker 2: Armed to the terror of the public. So that's his
Speaker 2: side of the story as of now. See what happens
Speaker 2: with these charges.
Speaker 5: The unexpected side effect of a hurricane. We're running out
Speaker 5: of iv bags. So the storm Hurricane Helene severely affected
Speaker 5: operations at Baxter International's North Cove production site. What does
Speaker 5: Baxter Internationals do well. They're the largest manufacturer of IVY
Speaker 5: fluids and dialysis solutions in the country.
Speaker 3: So they had to pause production.
Speaker 5: Then they started up again, but they have a lot
Speaker 5: of restrictions and since last week they've got their capacity
Speaker 5: back up to about sixty percent of typical volume. But
Speaker 5: because of that shortage, the FDA is saying that they've.
Speaker 3: Got shortages all over the country.
Speaker 5: Hospitals have been rationalized rationing supplies and people are even
Speaker 5: having to postpone surgeries in some cases.
Speaker 2: And now the Biden administration has invoked the Defense Production
Speaker 2: Act to help Baxter get what they need to remediate
Speaker 2: the damage to their facilities as quickly as possible. But
Speaker 2: it'll be a while before the supplies are back up
Speaker 2: to full capacity. What are all the influencers in Vegas
Speaker 2: going to do right now?
Speaker 5: If they can't get their be twelve, they can't get there,
Speaker 5: they can't get their morning after where the guy in
Speaker 5: the van comes and hooks you up to the IV
Speaker 5: to help you with your hangover.
Speaker 3: Do you think it's those.
Speaker 2: Well, it's all the same I mean a lot of
Speaker 2: it's the same stuff. It's saline and stuff like that.
Speaker 2: Whether you are a legitimate medical patient or you're just
Speaker 2: some dude who had too many espresso martinis in Vegas,
Speaker 2: it's the same thing goes in your arm.
Speaker 5: What is interesting to me about this is it it's
Speaker 5: sort of like the baby formula crisis that we had
Speaker 5: a few years ago, Like, why do we only have
Speaker 5: one or two manufactures of this stuff in the whole country?
Speaker 4: Why do we put them in Hurricane Row?
Speaker 5: Well that wasn't It was in North Carolina. It wasn't
Speaker 5: They didn't expect to get hit by that. It was
Speaker 5: four hundred miles inland. These are still good questions, yeah,
Speaker 5: both of them.
Speaker 6: So the Pentagon announced Tuesday that more than eight hundred
Speaker 6: military personnel have seen their service records upgraded to honorable
Speaker 6: discharges after previously being kicked out of the military under
Speaker 6: its former don't ask, don't tell policy. So latest development
Speaker 6: over the decades, undo that pass discrimination against the LGBTQ
Speaker 6: service members, which is horrific people serving their country and
Speaker 6: getting booted.
Speaker 2: And remember back in June, President Biden said, I'm going
Speaker 2: to issue a bunch of pardons to anybody who got
Speaker 2: in trouble just for just for having a gay interaction,
Speaker 2: if you will, with another service person. So now the
Speaker 2: only thing that's that's illegal or actionable is if it's
Speaker 2: not consensual, which obviously it never never should unconsensual sexual
Speaker 2: activity be considered cool.
Speaker 4: But for a.
Speaker 6: While nineteen fifty one unwing the Uniform Code of Military
Speaker 6: Justice or oh yeah, they were five criminalized consensual gay sex.
Speaker 2: Yes, they did not want any of that in the
Speaker 2: military at all. And then Clinton, which I mean, you know,
Speaker 2: I understand he was trying to move us forward. But
Speaker 2: I don't think that this was a good plan. We
Speaker 2: won't ask you if you're gay, You don't tell us
Speaker 2: if you're gay, and which sounds good until you realize
Speaker 2: the flip side of it is if in any way
Speaker 2: you tell us that you're gay, by telling us or
Speaker 2: through your behavior, then you're still in big trouble. So
Speaker 2: a lot of people still got dinged badly, even though
Speaker 2: Clinton thought he was trying to help. Now we're at
Speaker 2: the that now it's where it should be, which is
Speaker 2: it's the same exact rule. If you're straight, if you're gay,
Speaker 2: if you're by, if you're whatever, consensual activity is not
Speaker 2: you're not going to get court martialed. And and if
Speaker 2: you assault somebody, it doesn't matter. You're gonna be in trouble.
Speaker 2: That's how it should be. Oh, here we go. This
Speaker 2: is what we've been talking about. Today there will be
Speaker 2: a news conference slash rally, slash celebrity appearance in front
Speaker 2: of the Criminal Courts Building in downtown LA. This all
Speaker 2: has to do with the Menendez brother's case. And we
Speaker 2: get to today's news conference rally because earlier this month,
Speaker 2: Da George gascon not for much longer said his office
Speaker 2: is gonna review this new evidence that has been brought
Speaker 2: forward on behalf of the Menendez brothers and make a
Speaker 2: decision about whether they will seek a resentencing hearing in
Speaker 2: front of a judge for the two gentlemen. And I'm
Speaker 2: not sure there's confusion about who's gonna be there today
Speaker 2: at this event, whether Gascone is going to be there,
Speaker 2: whether they're going to announce that Gascone has in fact
Speaker 2: decided to move forward, or whether this is just going
Speaker 2: to be a public pitch on behalf of the effort.
Speaker 2: But I knew that, you know, their lawyers are going
Speaker 2: to be there, and their aunt's going to be there,
Speaker 2: and and then Michelle clued me in this morning that
Speaker 2: Rosie O'Donnell is going to be there. Why to speak
Speaker 2: out on their behalf? I assume you know the thing
Speaker 2: about the Menendez brother's case. First of all, nobody denies
Speaker 2: that they did it. They don't deny it, their lawyers
Speaker 2: don't deny it. Nobody denies that they killed their parents
Speaker 2: with a shotgun. But this is an interesting case to
Speaker 2: me because if you were around when it was originally
Speaker 2: going on, they had a trial and at that first trial,
Speaker 2: they introduced evidence that they had been sexually abused by
Speaker 2: the father, and the jury hung it was they did
Speaker 2: not convict them. Then they had a second trial, and
Speaker 2: for whatever reason, the judge in the second trial said,
Speaker 2: you are not allowed to introduce any evidence or tell
Speaker 2: the jury that they say or were sexually abused by
Speaker 2: their father, and they were convicted. The first trial gave
Speaker 2: jurors something to think about and way, and the second
Speaker 2: trial was like, here they are and they shotgun to
Speaker 2: their parents, and what do you think of that? Well,
Speaker 2: if that's all you're told, what you think of it
Speaker 2: is that they're despicable monsters. So now there's been new
Speaker 2: evidence a letter that one of the Menina's brothers wrote
Speaker 2: way back when, not now, not something he wrote now
Speaker 2: where you could say, oh, you're trying to make stuff
Speaker 2: up now, where he said his father was still abusing
Speaker 2: him up until just like eight months before the murders.
Speaker 2: And there also is information from a former member of
Speaker 2: Minudo that says their father, who was involved in the
Speaker 2: music industry, molested him when he was I forget if
Speaker 2: it's fourteen or fifteen, but something like that. And so
Speaker 2: the question becomes or what do we do now, and
Speaker 2: more specifically, do we want to vacate the first degree
Speaker 2: murder and maybe make it second degree murder, in which
Speaker 2: case they don't have to have life in prison without parole.
Speaker 2: They could get who knows, thirty five years, forty years,
Speaker 2: Maybe they could get a sentence where they actually come
Speaker 2: out of prison. We don't know what Gascone has decided yet,
Speaker 2: and we may not know after this event today because
Speaker 2: it's just so unclear what his role is the DA.
Speaker 2: He's the one who has to make the decision to
Speaker 2: seek a resentencing.
Speaker 4: So first what kind of abuse was and do we know?
Speaker 6: And then second, what power does Gascone have in this case?
Speaker 6: Is it only to look at it again? He couldn't
Speaker 6: free them or anything, could he?
Speaker 2: No, but he could he can make a hearing happen
Speaker 2: in front of a judge to have them re sentenced.
Speaker 2: He can do that. What kind of abuse? The worst
Speaker 2: kind of molestation type abuse that you, unfortunately can imagine.
Speaker 6: The aunt, I guess, the sister of Kitty who was
Speaker 6: killed the Mosuyes. She apparently has been on their side
Speaker 6: the whole time, and yes, and aunt boys tried to
Speaker 6: get Kitty to leave.
Speaker 4: The father. Yes, fascinating and I.
Speaker 2: Would take from that. My own supposition is that that
Speaker 2: she the aunt may have been well aware of what
Speaker 2: was going on and knew what the what the men
Speaker 2: and his brothers were being subjected to. So we'll just
Speaker 2: see Wednesday, and Michael Monks from KFI News is going
Speaker 2: to be there, so you know as soon as what
Speaker 2: as soon as we know what it really is about,
Speaker 2: you will know about it from listening to kfive because
Speaker 2: KFI News department is second to none. I'm Wayne Resnick
Speaker 2: sitting in until nine here with Amy King and Niel Savedra,
Speaker 2: finishing up handle on the news chaos and bedlam. Apparently,
Speaker 2: after Trump's rally, Amy Oh.
Speaker 5: The Humanity, Trump supporters were left stranded for hours at
Speaker 5: the Kochella Valley rally. Actually after the rally, so apparently
Speaker 5: they had to park like five miles away. They were
Speaker 5: bussed into the Calhoun Ranch, but then when the rally
Speaker 5: was over around seven o'clock, a lot of attendees were
Speaker 5: left stranded. It was still very hot, over ninety degrees.
Speaker 5: They said that there used to be like twenty buses
Speaker 5: when they were being brought in, but now there's only
Speaker 5: three buses operating. They kind of got stuck, and apparently
Speaker 5: it had to do with overtime that the buses weren't
Speaker 5: allowed to operate past a certain amount of hours. But
Speaker 5: they got stuck and they were left there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot of finger pointing. Some people are
Speaker 2: saying it's because the Trump campaign didn't pay the bus company.
Speaker 2: Some are saying it has something to do with overtime regulations.
Speaker 2: I don't know if we'll ever find out the real truth,
Speaker 2: but man, that must have sucked. And there were a
Speaker 2: lot of elderly people there just standing around in the
Speaker 2: hot desert, and at some point the bathroom facilities became
Speaker 2: unavailable and there was no water, and I think some
Speaker 2: people had to walk six miles.
Speaker 4: Thanks Obama, always.
Speaker 2: Always a valid response, I guess.
Speaker 6: So talking about the Mendenda's case, moving from a maniacal
Speaker 6: sex crazed music executive, let's try something different, diddies in
Speaker 6: the news. So uh, lawyers for Sean Diddy Combs asked
Speaker 6: a New York judge Tuesday, man, this story is rank
Speaker 6: to force prosecutors to disclose the names of his accusers
Speaker 6: in his sex trafficking case. So get this, The lawyers
Speaker 6: for Seawan Comb's wrote a letter to the Manhattan Federal
Speaker 6: Court judge and says that the hip hop music maker
Speaker 6: needs to know the identities the identities of his alleged
Speaker 6: victims so he can prepare adequately for the trial.
Speaker 2: Yes, here's the thing that's correct. It's a question of
Speaker 2: when do they need to know what if any of
Speaker 2: these people are going to be witnesses?
Speaker 4: What written? Doesn't it sound like, what are the names?
Speaker 2: It's I mean? And also because they're not talking about
Speaker 2: publicly just closing the names, they're talking about receiving the
Speaker 2: names in discovery with I'm assuming a protective order on
Speaker 2: that information. At some point they're going to have to
Speaker 2: have an opportunity to look into the anybody who is
Speaker 2: especially if they're going to testify. They they are allowed
Speaker 2: to get that information at some point.
Speaker 6: Of course, and they're home and they're driving practices and
Speaker 6: when they go to the grocery store.
Speaker 2: I know it feels it feels icky. It definitely does.
Speaker 2: But on the other hand, we've got like we've got
Speaker 2: all these like constitutional rights and things in this country.
Speaker 3: We are constitutional rights.
Speaker 4: Yeah, take them away now, you can do it. You
Speaker 4: can take them away now.
Speaker 2: Well, you know what, I guess that could be a
Speaker 2: motivation for some people to vote for Donald Trump, because
Speaker 2: maybe if he gets elected, he will take away some
Speaker 2: of them and then the the government will not have
Speaker 2: to disclose the victims.
Speaker 4: Thanks Obama.
Speaker 2: LOTHUNSA, Germany's biggest airline, has been fined four million dollars,
Speaker 2: which is a record, according to the Department of Transportation,
Speaker 2: for discriminating against some Jewish passengers. Here is what happened.
Speaker 2: There was an incident back in May of twenty twenty two.
Speaker 2: There were about one hundred and twenty eight Jewish passengers
Speaker 2: on this flight, and some of them apparent. Now you
Speaker 2: may say, well, how do they know how many Jewish
Speaker 2: people were on the flight. We're talking about people who
Speaker 2: were dressed up in the traditional Orthodox Jewish garb okay,
Speaker 2: and some of them, some of them, allegedly were disregarding
Speaker 2: the safety announcements, disregarding keeping the aisles clear, obstructing the
Speaker 2: flight attendants, and inconveniencing other passengers and arguing with the
Speaker 2: crew about wearing masks. Remember May twenty twenty two, you
Speaker 2: were still supposed to be wearing a mask. So when
Speaker 2: that plane got from New York to Frankfurt, which was
Speaker 2: a middle stop on its way to Budapest. They the
Speaker 2: airline said none of you were getting back on, and
Speaker 2: these passengers said, hey, even if some people dressed like
Speaker 2: us were causing trouble, we all didn't you just discriminated
Speaker 2: against all the Jews on the flight. And I guess
Speaker 2: Luthonsis said, well, maybe we did, maybe we didn't. But
Speaker 2: here's four million dollars, not to them, to the it's
Speaker 2: a fine to the Department of Transportation. The rowdy Jews
Speaker 2: if they were are not getting any money from this.
Speaker 3: What what's the point of that.
Speaker 2: Well, this is the Transportation Department cracking down and enforcing
Speaker 2: anti discrimination rules against the airline. Give the money, Well
Speaker 2: they will.
Speaker 4: Have to sue.
Speaker 2: They can sue Luthonsa and see how they fare with
Speaker 2: that in court.
Speaker 4: Can't they just say, come on pay us?
Speaker 2: Oh that was funny, Yes, pay us the traditional curly
Speaker 2: side burns that many Orthodox Jews wear. That was very
Speaker 2: very nice, very inside word play. Can we can you, Amy, Yes,
Speaker 2: I ask you, because I know you're a Dodger fan.
Speaker 2: Can we go a little bit late so that we
Speaker 2: can just quickly talk about this baseball. Yes, that is
Speaker 2: up for auction, of course, show hey O Tani's fiftieth
Speaker 2: home run ball of the season where he set a
Speaker 2: never before record of fifty home runs and fifty stolen
Speaker 2: bases in a regular season. It is up for option,
Speaker 2: and the bidding is now at did I say option auction?
Speaker 2: The bidding is now at one point seven million dollars
Speaker 2: and they think it could go much higher. If it
Speaker 2: gets to three point zero five million dollars, it will
Speaker 2: be the most valuable baseball in history, which is currently
Speaker 2: Mark McGuire's seventieth home run ball from nineteen ninety nine.
Speaker 2: And here's the thing. There's a big legal dispute about
Speaker 2: whose baseball it is and who owns it, and yet
Speaker 2: everyone has agreed they will allow it to be auctioned
Speaker 2: off and then when their spat about who really owned
Speaker 2: the ball is resolved, that's the person who will get
Speaker 2: their share of the proceeds from the auction. They want
Speaker 2: the money in escrow now, and then they'll worry about
Speaker 2: who actually gets it. So there's another week for you
Speaker 2: to bid. Neil, all right, you're on three different talk
Speaker 2: shows on KFI, so I assume you are rolling in
Speaker 2: do and can easily drop a couple of mill on
Speaker 2: this baseball. Amy, you'd loveable as baseball, wouldn't you?
Speaker 3: Oh? Sure, I could, and I could bid fifty dollars
Speaker 3: on it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a little out of my league as well.
Speaker 2: All right, that is handled on the news, And when
Speaker 2: we come back, so many reasons housing is out of
Speaker 2: control in California, we'll go through some of them see
Speaker 2: if we can make any sense of it at all.
