WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.919 This is Gary and Shannon, and you're listening to KFI 2 00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:05.839 AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand 3 00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:07.160 on the iHeartRadio app. 4 00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:08.679 Let's go down the list of things that are not 5 00:00:08.919 --> 00:00:15.080 blowing up in Beirut. Hard to the list of things 6 00:00:15.080 --> 00:00:17.800 not blowing up is shorter than the list of things 7 00:00:17.839 --> 00:00:18.920 that are blowing up. 8 00:00:19.160 --> 00:00:22.280 I wondered what was next yesterday when we were talking 9 00:00:22.399 --> 00:00:24.640 to Shannon Kingston with ABC. 10 00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:25.719 News, what's next? 11 00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:28.679 There's got to be an escalation here, and now we 12 00:00:28.760 --> 00:00:31.719 have the second wave of explosions with the walkie talkies 13 00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:35.560 and the solar systems. This follows months of tensions between 14 00:00:35.640 --> 00:00:38.640 Hesbela and Israel since the October seventh terror attacks. 15 00:00:38.679 --> 00:00:41.560 Really goes back there, and it was a late. 16 00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:45.679 Monday that Israel announced their latest war objective, right, the 17 00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:49.200 safe return of the residents displaced from all the fighting 18 00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:53.399 with Hesbela across that northern border there with Lebanon. And 19 00:00:53.479 --> 00:00:58.159 then the pagers exploded because there was definitely some form 20 00:00:58.240 --> 00:01:01.880 of escalation that was coming, the pagers exploded, and then today, 21 00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:03.679 like I said, the second wave. 22 00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:06.640 Yeah, so the second wave appears to be even lower 23 00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:09.879 tech than the pagers that were hit yesterday. This was 24 00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:14.319 a series of walkie talkies that included some walkie talkies 25 00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:18.560 held by people attending funerals for those who were killed yesterday. 26 00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:21.120 This is Nick patten Walls. She's a correspondent for CNN. 27 00:01:22.200 --> 00:01:23.879 Uh Jack, go give me the thing. 28 00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:26.840 We are looking at it yet more low tech form 29 00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:31.040 of communication. Remember hesbla pits. We've reached to Pages because 30 00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:33.840 of concerns and warnings that Israel would use smartphones to 31 00:01:33.959 --> 00:01:37.599 track their members and target them the pages they use. 32 00:01:37.719 --> 00:01:40.480 The supply chain, it seems from Taiwan. Unclear how it 33 00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:42.920 necessarily got to Lebanon, having lived there. 34 00:01:42.840 --> 00:01:43.359 For a while. 35 00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:45.799 All sorts of stuff turns up in the ports there 36 00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:49.680 from various dodgy provenances, so you know, very easy to infiltrate. 37 00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:53.760 They're peer to. According to New York Times, reporting infiltrated 38 00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:57.239 that supply chain put explosives in the pages. The question 39 00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:02.040 now is was indeed a walkie talkie supply chain also infiltrated. 40 00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:06.040 It appears that this series of explosions can't be too 41 00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:08.840 much of a coincidence, that indeed it happened about twenty 42 00:02:08.840 --> 00:02:10.439 four hours off the previous. 43 00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:15.680 One, exactly twenty four hours yeah, Israel could benefit on 44 00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:19.439 several levels from this kind of operation. First, of course, 45 00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:24.639 the physical damage to the HESBLA militants right. Secondly, disrupting 46 00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:29.520 the communication right, the group's ability to communicate. It could 47 00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:32.080 take a large number of the commanders out of the field. 48 00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:33.680 This could be crippling. 49 00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:37.120 Well, and you figure Hesbela after yesterday's attack had already 50 00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:39.639 I mean, listen, that's one of the things that they 51 00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:42.400 have said forever is that they would destroy the Zionist 52 00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:44.439 state or whatever their philosophy is. 53 00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:46.520 So they have threatened to. 54 00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:50.599 Rain down all fire and hell on top of Israel 55 00:02:50.919 --> 00:02:54.639 for decades. This made them more angry, I suppose. And 56 00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:58.479 they do have several tens of thousands potentially missiles and 57 00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:01.360 rockets that are ready to go to fire at Israel. 58 00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:05.319 But if they don't have the simple command and control 59 00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:08.719 structure to call for those attacks, what do they do? 60 00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:11.360 I mean your point that this. 61 00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:15.719 Disintegrates literally their communication apparatus. 62 00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:18.840 So what is next? There is a report you mentioned this. 63 00:03:18.919 --> 00:03:22.199 There is a report in the Guardian out of the 64 00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:26.319 UK that said that several solar power systems have exploded 65 00:03:26.360 --> 00:03:30.919 in people's homes across Lebanon. They're exploded solar panels. They 66 00:03:30.919 --> 00:03:33.919 said that there are pictures of fingerprint readers that have 67 00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:38.039 exploded and other small electronic devices that are currently circulating 68 00:03:38.039 --> 00:03:41.000 throughout social media. Not clear if they blew up my 69 00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:44.120 favorite favorite line of the day. It's unclear if they 70 00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:47.360 blew up by themselves or they were simply near the 71 00:03:47.360 --> 00:03:49.599 walkie talkies which blew up. I don't know why solar 72 00:03:49.639 --> 00:03:52.280 panels would have blown up. I don't know why anybody 73 00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:54.400 would have a walkie talkie and you're a solar panel. 74 00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:58.560 And it makes you wonder if smartphones are next. 75 00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:04.199 Well, they're clearly, they're clearly potential targets smartphones would be. 76 00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:06.560 But people that are smarter than I am when it 77 00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:11.840 comes to technology and explosives say that modern smartphones are 78 00:04:11.879 --> 00:04:15.000 constructed in ways that such tampering could be anywhere from 79 00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:17.040 very difficult to nearly impossible. 80 00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:22.560 Well, I would have said that it was nearly impossible 81 00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:25.920 to put an explosive charge inside a twenty year old pager, 82 00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:30.079 but clearly it's not. I mean, I don't know if you, 83 00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:33.800 I wouldn't put anything past the abilities of the A 84 00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:35.360 group like Mosade. 85 00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:38.360 They say that agent's plant as little as two ounces 86 00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:41.720 of explosives next to the lithium ion battery. That's the key, 87 00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:44.920 I think, as well as a remotely operated switch to 88 00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:48.000 trigger a blast within those pagers and walkie talkies. 89 00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:51.079 Yeah, and I do believe that the explosives is a 90 00:04:51.160 --> 00:04:55.079 key component here. It's not just what I assumed yesterday, 91 00:04:55.079 --> 00:04:59.759 which was hacking a pager causing it to overcharge itself 92 00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:03.360 and then having the battery get so hot. 93 00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:04.319 That it explodes whatever. 94 00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:05.160 But unlikely. 95 00:05:05.439 --> 00:05:08.439 Yeah, because if you saw the video of some of 96 00:05:08.439 --> 00:05:11.920 these explosions, those are not batteries exploding. I mean that 97 00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:14.800 would obviously be painful, hot, cause fire. That sort of 98 00:05:14.879 --> 00:05:17.519 thing that was a small explosion, I mean that was 99 00:05:17.560 --> 00:05:22.319 a that was larger than a battery simply going. That 100 00:05:22.439 --> 00:05:24.879 had to be something like we talked about yesterday, that 101 00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:30.279 PETN or some sort of semtech using PETN something like that. 102 00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:33.399 So listen, we're all explosives experts now, aren't we. 103 00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:36.439 I need to talk to you about uh. 104 00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:39.839 Oh man, I have you have never said those words 105 00:05:39.879 --> 00:05:42.720 to me, really, that you need to talk to me 106 00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:43.360 about something? 107 00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:46.360 Well, I need to talk to you about moo Dang. 108 00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:49.720 Moodang has been a blind spot for you and I 109 00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:53.519 and I was in the Chargers breakfast in the meal 110 00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:56.319 room and hanging out with a bunch of people that 111 00:05:56.399 --> 00:06:00.279 are younger than us, and said, what do you talk 112 00:06:00.279 --> 00:06:01.600 about on the show today, And I'm like, oh, I'm 113 00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:04.800 just reading this story about Moo Dang and they're like, oh, yeah, Moodang. 114 00:06:04.920 --> 00:06:05.120 Yeah. 115 00:06:05.279 --> 00:06:08.319 But one of the social well yeah, they've known about it, 116 00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:10.800 and apparent everyone knew about it but me, and one 117 00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:13.560 of the social media girls goes, yeah, we were going 118 00:06:13.639 --> 00:06:15.360 to try to do something with Moodang, but it was 119 00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:17.720 just too late, like it's just it's old now. And 120 00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:20.439 I'm like, great, that's how old I am. It's too 121 00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:23.360 old and I'm just hearing about it now.

So I'm 123 00:06:25.240 --> 00:06:26.800 going to have to tell you about Moodang when we 124 00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:27.199 come back. 125 00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:30.319 Did you then say something like, uh, I'm trying to 126 00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:31.920 be very demure, very mindful. 127 00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:35.120 No, God, I try to. I try to speak as 128 00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:35.920 little as possible. 129 00:06:35.959 --> 00:06:38.800 I literally said two words and then those deemed me 130 00:06:38.839 --> 00:06:42.079 as an old woman, and those two words were Moodang. 131 00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:45.639 Well, we also have a huge animal roundup store segment 132 00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:46.759 coming up next hour. 133 00:06:47.199 --> 00:06:49.160 Yeah, So I just want to get this out of 134 00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:51.199 the way real quickly in case anyone wants to move 135 00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:53.240 about their day and doesn't want to sound like they 136 00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:54.439 don't know about Moo Dang. 137 00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:56.680 We are going to do a segment later this hour 138 00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:59.600 called Nothing to See Here, which is a prelude to 139 00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:02.480 World War or three. The US military has moved a 140 00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:05.000 bunch of people along with mobile rocket launchers to an 141 00:07:05.040 --> 00:07:08.439 island in the Illusion Chain of western Alaska. Excellent because 142 00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:12.040 of the increase in Russian military planes and boats approaching 143 00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:13.120 American territory. 144 00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:14.680 We'll talk about that, just. 145 00:07:14.879 --> 00:07:17.399 So everybody is clear and you can move about your 146 00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:21.519 day and feel educated. There is a baby pygmy hippo 147 00:07:22.040 --> 00:07:25.600 in a Thailand zoo that has become a worldwide internet sensation. 148 00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:31.519 Moodang is two months old. Photos of Moodang have flooded 149 00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:35.399 social media. Utah Jazz included the hippo and a post 150 00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:37.079 about the team's home opening game. 151 00:07:38.120 --> 00:07:42.079 This is all about this baby hippo. 152 00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:46.759 A Sephora Thailand celebrated moudang stardom by posting on social 153 00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:47.680 media about. 154 00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:49.600 How to wear your blush like a baby hippo. 155 00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:54.639 The zoo where Moodang lives has limited visitation to just 156 00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:59.199 Saturday and Sundays for five minutes because the of the 157 00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:03.120 interest in Moodang. But people are it's such a celebrity. 158 00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:05.199 People are not behaving well at the zoo, so they 159 00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:07.959 have to be very careful. Moodang was born on July 160 00:08:08.079 --> 00:08:11.199 tenth and rose to fame apparently when the zoo began 161 00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:15.079 posting videos of her eating, even opening a door at 162 00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:19.279 one point. She is the seventh baby hippo born to 163 00:08:19.319 --> 00:08:22.519 her parents at the zoo. It's just very cute baby hippo. 164 00:08:23.959 --> 00:08:28.639 Her name, by the way, Moodang means bouncy pig. Oh, 165 00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:32.399 and she was named by an online vote, so people 166 00:08:32.440 --> 00:08:35.559 already had skin in the pig before the pig came out. 167 00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:36.039 That's big. 168 00:08:36.399 --> 00:08:41.159 I don't think that that would be a good nickname 169 00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:43.519 for a spouse or partner. 170 00:08:43.960 --> 00:08:47.440 Bouncy pig. Yeah, I don't know. 171 00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:49.440 I kind of like it. But this it looks that 172 00:08:49.600 --> 00:08:52.519 Moodang kind of has like human features a little bit. 173 00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:55.320 It is funny because they The whole Washington Post article 174 00:08:55.399 --> 00:09:00.120 today is about why we humans react to baby the 175 00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:01.799 animals the way that we do it. 176 00:09:03.679 --> 00:09:05.240 Kitchens, the pudgy bodies. 177 00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:07.840 It makes us want to take care of them, just 178 00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:10.039 like our babies makes me want to eat them. 179 00:09:10.279 --> 00:09:12.000 You're not gonna eat the baby, no, I know. 180 00:09:12.120 --> 00:09:14.879 I don't mean literally, but I mean you you you 181 00:09:14.919 --> 00:09:15.360 know when. 182 00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:16.759 You react to a baby. 183 00:09:17.240 --> 00:09:20.840 I never have that reaction like when I've heard people 184 00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:22.639 say that, oh, I just want to eat them up. 185 00:09:23.080 --> 00:09:25.279 Like I've never had the reaction like I want to 186 00:09:25.279 --> 00:09:27.080 eat that baby. It doesn't make any sense. 187 00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:27.480 I know that. 188 00:09:27.879 --> 00:09:29.879 I know that you're looking at it in a literal. 189 00:09:29.960 --> 00:09:33.440 I don't think anybody wants to actually bite into a child. Right, 190 00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:35.720 there's something about you want to and I'm going to 191 00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:37.519 use this word and it doesn't mean that it doesn't 192 00:09:37.559 --> 00:09:39.720 mean it literally either, but you want to smother them 193 00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:40.480 like you just want to. 194 00:09:43.960 --> 00:09:48.559 All Right, It's a thing I get you, guys. Seriously. 195 00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:51.720 An hour and a half from now is when the 196 00:09:51.759 --> 00:09:53.639 feder Reserve is going to announce whether or not it's 197 00:09:53.639 --> 00:09:55.200 going to raise interest rates. And we think it is 198 00:09:55.240 --> 00:09:56.879 going to raise interest rates. We just don't know how 199 00:09:56.919 --> 00:09:58.200 much it's going to raise interest. 200 00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:01.720 I feel like we need sexy music for oh, for 201 00:10:02.360 --> 00:10:03.159 interest rates? 202 00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:07.279 Yeah, all right. 203 00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:11.559 Because relief is on the way borrowing money. It's about 204 00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:12.240 to get cheaper. 205 00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:16.120 ABC News chief business correspondent and friend of the show. 206 00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:19.559 At least she was at one time, Rebecca Jarvis, you 207 00:10:19.720 --> 00:10:20.440 are never going. 208 00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:21.759 To get over her breakup with us. 209 00:10:21.799 --> 00:10:24.039 And the reason the Fed is doing this right now. 210 00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:27.679 Inflation is now at a three year low. It's well 211 00:10:27.679 --> 00:10:29.879 below the nine percent peak. It is back in what 212 00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:32.720 they would consider the normal zone where the Fed wants 213 00:10:32.759 --> 00:10:35.000 to see it at two and a half percent. Meantime, 214 00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:38.759 unemployment still historically low four point two percent, but it 215 00:10:38.840 --> 00:10:41.200 is starting to take higher. You may have heard this 216 00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:44.360 term soft landing. That is exactly what the Fed is 217 00:10:44.399 --> 00:10:46.879 trying to do here. They want to land this plane 218 00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:48.080 nice and easy. 219 00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:50.600 Oh man, did I call for the music at the 220 00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:51.240 right time. 221 00:10:51.120 --> 00:10:56.360 Or what he certainly did. Speaking of the. 222 00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:00.840 Dow Jones Industrial average right now, is that is only 223 00:11:00.879 --> 00:11:03.440 down about forty two points. They say, basically, the markets 224 00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:06.279 have been treading water waiting for whatever announcement is going 225 00:11:06.360 --> 00:11:08.799 to come today. S and P five hundred and the 226 00:11:08.879 --> 00:11:11.320 NASTAC are basically flat. 227 00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:12.960 They're down just a couple of points. 228 00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:16.720 So we don't expect to see much of a huge change, 229 00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:18.120 at least not right away. 230 00:11:18.919 --> 00:11:20.480 We'll kind of see what goes on over the next 231 00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:21.120 couple of weeks. 232 00:11:21.120 --> 00:11:23.360 Now, the biggest question is, and I know everybody's on 233 00:11:23.399 --> 00:11:26.200 the edge of their seats, the big question is whether 234 00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:30.200 or not this is a fifty basis point reduction or 235 00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:34.039 a twenty five basis point reduction. 236 00:11:34.320 --> 00:11:36.799 Jeffrey Solomon is the president of T D Cowen. 237 00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:39.600 They may actually do fifty bases voints, but I think 238 00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:42.960 they shouwly do twenty five because why are we Why 239 00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:43.759 what's the rush? 240 00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:44.120 Like? 241 00:11:44.399 --> 00:11:48.159 There's no urgency. They can they can ease a little bit, 242 00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:51.720 see how it goes, see if we continue to see 243 00:11:51.759 --> 00:11:56.360 inflation or continue if inflation continues to abate, and there's 244 00:11:56.360 --> 00:11:58.480 no reason for them to go to fifteen. And my 245 00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:00.840 point now, the market bay price and you can see 246 00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:02.879 a pullback in equities if they don't do it, But 247 00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:05.519 you know that would just be a today event or 248 00:12:06.159 --> 00:12:07.080 next few weeks event. 249 00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:08.480 I think longer term, it's. 250 00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:10.919 Better for them to be cautious to ensure that inflation 251 00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:12.399 doesn't rear its ugly ahead. 252 00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:14.559 He wasn't a sexy. 253 00:12:17.879 --> 00:12:20.360 Right when we come back, Yeah, let's cut the sex music, 254 00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:23.480 because when we come back, we're going to talk about 255 00:12:23.519 --> 00:12:27.480 Diddy and his latest proposal for bail, which is asinine. 256 00:12:27.559 --> 00:12:30.799 It just shows he does not take this seriously, or 257 00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:33.399 his attorneys don't take this seriously. If this was their 258 00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:35.120 contingency plan, you. 259 00:12:35.080 --> 00:12:37.919 Can always leave us a talkback message on the iHeart app. 260 00:12:38.000 --> 00:12:40.000 Just shit that little microphone button while you're listening on 261 00:12:40.039 --> 00:12:41.960 the app, and you can send us a quick note. 262 00:12:42.039 --> 00:12:45.000 Shannon and Gary, the real brilliance and the attack against 263 00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:48.320 Hesbola using pages and walkie talkies is that not only 264 00:12:48.360 --> 00:12:52.159 does Israel disrupt their communications, but now there's a fundamental 265 00:12:52.159 --> 00:12:55.120 distrust of all electronic devices mark which is going to 266 00:12:55.159 --> 00:12:57.320 make communications really difficult in the future. 267 00:12:57.399 --> 00:13:00.320 Yep, going forward. It's a good point. Don't listen to me. 268 00:13:00.840 --> 00:13:01.840 I don't know what I'm. 269 00:13:01.759 --> 00:13:02.480 Saying, guys. 270 00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:05.360 I thought it was pretty funny. Gary consistently said the. 271 00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:08.679 Fed was going to raise rate. I'm pretty sure they 272 00:13:08.679 --> 00:13:12.919 were going to lower. Yes, the percent, Gary, lower, They're 273 00:13:12.919 --> 00:13:16.120 going to lower lower, lower. It's not going to raise 274 00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:17.480 the interest rates. 275 00:13:17.960 --> 00:13:18.600 Lower. 276 00:13:18.759 --> 00:13:22.039 Lower lower means cut, raise means more. 277 00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:26.039 Yes, Okay, yes, still giving like you're a four year old. 278 00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:28.320 Well I did, I made a four year old mistake. 279 00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:30.320 I didn't hear that. Maybe I should listen. 280 00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:35.080 When the FED makes an announcement at eleven just after eleven. 281 00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:39.159 The expectation is that they will be cutting interest rates, 282 00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:43.480 the borrowing rate by fifty basis points or twenty five 283 00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:45.799 basis points. We don't know that part yet, but we 284 00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:51.679 do know it's widely expected that they will in fact cut, lower, shrink, 285 00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:53.120 make smaller. 286 00:13:53.399 --> 00:13:56.039 This is this is why you know, this is why. 287 00:13:57.080 --> 00:13:59.879 This is why Rebecca Jarvis broke up with us, because 288 00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:02.320 you probably said stupid stuff. 289 00:14:02.039 --> 00:14:03.559 Hey, and then she was like, I'm done. 290 00:14:04.360 --> 00:14:08.799 There's another We haven't gotten the details specifically yet if 291 00:14:08.799 --> 00:14:11.960 this is considered an actual threat, but police have reportedly 292 00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:16.679 found explosives in a car near a rally site for Trump. 293 00:14:17.519 --> 00:14:20.399 This is on Long Island ahead of a speech tonight. 294 00:14:20.559 --> 00:14:22.960 If it's confirmed, then I guess you could say this 295 00:14:23.000 --> 00:14:26.559 would be a third assassination to Tap. Again, the details 296 00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:31.080 are sketchy at this point. They have apparently detained somebody 297 00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:34.519 who was running away from the scene of a vehicle 298 00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:37.200 that did contain some sort of explosives, and again we 299 00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:39.080 don't know if it was fireworks, if it was something 300 00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:42.840 more nefarious than that. That rally is expected tonight at 301 00:14:42.840 --> 00:14:46.080 the Nassau Coliseum about seven o'clock New York time. 302 00:14:47.519 --> 00:14:52.120 Well, Diddy is taking another swing at getting out on bail. 303 00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:54.080 He's upping his offer to the court. 304 00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:57.639 He says he will forego contact with almost all women. 305 00:14:57.399 --> 00:15:04.000 If he's out. Oh thank you, it says, Oh my goodness. 306 00:15:04.039 --> 00:15:06.600 In the documents, his legal team says, if he's released 307 00:15:06.600 --> 00:15:09.320 on bail, the security company it keeps a log of 308 00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:12.399 all visitors to his home in Miami Beach, will hand 309 00:15:12.440 --> 00:15:15.200 over those logs to the government nightly in order to 310 00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:18.320 be fully transparent about who did he is contacting. That 311 00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:22.240 he will limit all visitors to family, property caretakers and 312 00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:24.320 friends who are not co conspirators. 313 00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:25.480 In the federal indictment. 314 00:15:25.720 --> 00:15:29.039 You don't get to have friends over after you have 315 00:15:29.480 --> 00:15:33.720 spent more than ten years at least kidnapping and assaulting 316 00:15:33.919 --> 00:15:37.000 and beating women like that is not something. 317 00:15:36.679 --> 00:15:37.519 You get to have. 318 00:15:38.919 --> 00:15:42.039 Also, who's going to believe his security team and the 319 00:15:42.159 --> 00:15:45.600 logs they keep. Also, women coming over to your house 320 00:15:45.679 --> 00:15:47.559 wasn't the problem. It was the fact that you were 321 00:15:47.679 --> 00:15:50.480 keeping them there for weeks and months and beating them 322 00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:53.799 and assaulting them and having them raped essentially, Like that's 323 00:15:53.879 --> 00:15:56.279 the problem. It's not that we don't think that you 324 00:15:56.320 --> 00:15:58.759 should be fraternizing with women. It's the fact that you 325 00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:03.399 held people against their will. And don't forget when this happened. 326 00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:06.399 Not when this happened, but when the original. 327 00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:11.159 Problems arose and we saw the raids on his properties 328 00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:14.399 at Holmby Hills and down in Miami. He took off, 329 00:16:15.000 --> 00:16:18.519 he left, he fled. I mean, the idea that he's 330 00:16:18.559 --> 00:16:23.080 now somehow not a flight risk is absolutely ridiculous. And 331 00:16:23.120 --> 00:16:27.039 the idea also of him where was it They said 332 00:16:27.039 --> 00:16:29.720 that they wanted to put him on home detention fifty 333 00:16:29.759 --> 00:16:35.080 million dollars bond secured by his home in Miami. Okay, 334 00:16:35.279 --> 00:16:37.600 So how rough a life is it going to be 335 00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:41.440 if you're stuck in a fifteen thousand square foot mansion 336 00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:42.240 in Miami. 337 00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:45.080 Why do people keep calling him a rapper too? I mean, 338 00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:47.759 he is a mogul, He had his own record label, 339 00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:53.360 he discovered artist like Usher clothing line Mary J. Blige. 340 00:16:53.559 --> 00:16:57.240 I mean, this guy is essentially a titan of industry. 341 00:16:57.559 --> 00:17:00.559 When you say rapper, it kind of water it down. 342 00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:03.600 I mean, this guy had a immense power, immense power. 343 00:17:04.079 --> 00:17:07.000 He was at the very least he was a rapper. 344 00:17:09.440 --> 00:17:11.640 Did she ever? Did she? 345 00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:14.720 I've already mentioned her in my head without saying it 346 00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:16.359 out loud. Jennifer Lopez. 347 00:17:16.400 --> 00:17:17.960 What was her connection to Ditty? 348 00:17:19.960 --> 00:17:22.440 I don't know. They never got. 349 00:17:22.279 --> 00:17:23.200 Married, is what I mean. 350 00:17:24.279 --> 00:17:28.119 In fact, for those of you who uh, I don't know, 351 00:17:28.400 --> 00:17:32.359 gauge your Jennifer Lopez memories based on outfits that she's worn. 352 00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:36.480 That Versace, that green Versace outfit that blew everybody's doors 353 00:17:36.519 --> 00:17:40.240 off twenty four years ago. She went to the Grammys 354 00:17:40.279 --> 00:17:44.559 that year with Ditty, so they were they were boyfriend 355 00:17:44.599 --> 00:17:47.000 and girlfriend at least she dated. 356 00:17:46.759 --> 00:17:49.240 Him between nineteen ninety nine and two thousand and one. 357 00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:54.960 Okay, now I am not that that matters or no, 358 00:17:55.559 --> 00:18:00.240 I'm just curious about the timelines. Again, I'm not saying 359 00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:02.160 Jennifer Lopez had anything to do with this or even 360 00:18:02.200 --> 00:18:02.920 had knowledge of it. 361 00:18:02.960 --> 00:18:03.400 I don't know. 362 00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:05.799 She's definitely not named as a co conspiracy I don't 363 00:18:05.880 --> 00:18:06.200 think so. 364 00:18:06.279 --> 00:18:09.440 I mean, his transgressions go back to the nineties, but 365 00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:11.599 it seems like he got out of control and this 366 00:18:11.799 --> 00:18:15.359 escalated circuit two thousand and nine. That's when he really 367 00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:18.920 started these these crazy parties and keeping this layer and 368 00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:21.000 trying to direct live porn and. 369 00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:23.079 The mentality of that is it just that he got 370 00:18:23.119 --> 00:18:26.119 away with it for so long and then just thought 371 00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:27.240 he was untouchable. 372 00:18:27.400 --> 00:18:31.119 Yes, exactly. Well, if I can get away with that, 373 00:18:31.119 --> 00:18:34.920 then I can get away with this right awful. 374 00:18:35.440 --> 00:18:37.960 He is expected to be back in court today and then, 375 00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:41.799 like you said, arguing for some bail. He's in jail 376 00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:44.039 right now on no bail. He's arguing for some bail 377 00:18:44.119 --> 00:18:48.200 so that he can go leave. There's I can't imagine 378 00:18:48.759 --> 00:18:52.559 a world where they offer him bail. No because even 379 00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:55.039 if you post, you know, a ten million dollar bail 380 00:18:55.119 --> 00:18:57.640 or something like that, he can afford it. So the 381 00:18:57.680 --> 00:18:59.960 only option I think it has to be no bail. 382 00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:02.599 But we'll see how that goes this afternoon. Hey, we 383 00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:06.440 were talking yesterday about plastics, microplastics and stuff and the food. 384 00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:09.200 Did you see that Tupperware is going to a file 385 00:19:09.279 --> 00:19:10.400 for bankruptcy protection? 386 00:19:10.640 --> 00:19:12.000 Prescient, You're very prescient. 387 00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:14.880 The Tupperware brand, introduced in the forties by a guy 388 00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:19.039 named Earl Tupper, a chemist, developed a clean, durable plastic 389 00:19:19.119 --> 00:19:24.079 to create airtight containers. They said that the direct sales campaign, 390 00:19:24.160 --> 00:19:27.319 the Tupperware parties that we saw back in the eighties 391 00:19:27.319 --> 00:19:30.279 et cetera are the reason why they can't make money. 392 00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:32.519 Now there's just no there's no way to do it 393 00:19:32.559 --> 00:19:33.799 the way that they did it before. 394 00:19:34.599 --> 00:19:38.200 Well back then, I think women and moms needed an 395 00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:41.599 excuse to get together and drink wine. And now they 396 00:19:41.599 --> 00:19:43.799 don't feel like they need an excuse anymore. Like it 397 00:19:43.880 --> 00:19:45.240 used to be like, oh, I want to check out 398 00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:48.240 this tupperware. Oh yeah, come over, And the tupperware was 399 00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:49.640 the vehicle for socialization. 400 00:19:50.720 --> 00:19:53.440 Yeah, they and they don't what is there a an? 401 00:19:54.680 --> 00:19:56.400
