<v Speaker 1>Ready for another work week, another for Ready for another

10
00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:41.840
<v Speaker 1>super hot day.

11
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:45.600
<v Speaker 5>It is going to cool down, just not yet.

12
00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:50.039
<v Speaker 1>So I had had a huge weekend for me. This

13
00:00:50.159 --> 00:00:54.079
<v Speaker 1>was a big deal. I did a ten k. Never

14
00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:57.359
<v Speaker 1>done a ten k before. Don't know that I'll ever

15
00:00:57.439 --> 00:01:00.200
<v Speaker 1>do one again, but it was super funny. It was

16
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:05.959
<v Speaker 1>the Disneyland Halloween ten k. And after the run that

17
00:01:06.040 --> 00:01:08.799
<v Speaker 1>started at like five o'clock in the morning, I mean,

18
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:10.920
<v Speaker 1>you're at Disneyland, so you got to go play in

19
00:01:10.959 --> 00:01:13.000
<v Speaker 1>the park, right, So we spent the day running around

20
00:01:13.239 --> 00:01:14.480
<v Speaker 1>at a friend Heidi in town.

21
00:01:15.159 --> 00:01:16.560
<v Speaker 5>I think I hit a new record.

22
00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:19.560
<v Speaker 1>I had more than thirty three thousand steps, that's like

23
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:24.079
<v Speaker 1>sixteen miles. They did the half marathon on Sunday, so

24
00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:27.280
<v Speaker 1>technically I did the half marathon. I'm going to tell

25
00:01:27.319 --> 00:01:28.959
<v Speaker 1>you more about it and I'll also tell you a

26
00:01:28.959 --> 00:01:31.680
<v Speaker 1>couple of things I learned in my first, ever and

27
00:01:31.719 --> 00:01:35.120
<v Speaker 1>possibly last ten k But let's get to the important stuff.

28
00:01:35.159 --> 00:01:37.920
<v Speaker 1>Here's what's ahead on wake Up Call, and here's the

29
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:41.680
<v Speaker 1>latest on that fire burning near Highland in San Bernardino County.

30
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:44.280

32
00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:52.879
<v Speaker 1>and Mountain Home Village. A nearly one thousand acre fire

33
00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:57.079
<v Speaker 1>that started yesterday north of Glendora has forced people out

34
00:01:57.120 --> 00:01:59.159
<v Speaker 1>of the Camp Williams and River communities.

35
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:01.239
<v Speaker 5>The first and possibly.

36
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:05.120
<v Speaker 1>Only debates between former President Trump and and Vice President

37
00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:09.039
<v Speaker 1>Harris is just one day away. Over the weekend Trumpeldla

38
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:13.560
<v Speaker 1>rally in the battleground state of Wisconsin, Harris was in Pennsylvania,

39
00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:16.280
<v Speaker 1>where she's been since Thursday, preparing for the debate. We're

40
00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:18.599
<v Speaker 1>going to get the latest on that with ABC's Karen

41
00:02:18.639 --> 00:02:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Travers coming up in just a couple of minutes. The

42
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:24.319
<v Speaker 1>Rams started their twenty twenty four season with a twenty

43
00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:28.479
<v Speaker 1>six twenty overtime loss to Detroit last night. The Chargers

00:02:33.319 --> 00:02:35.879
<v Speaker 1>game as head coach. They beat the Raiders twenty two

46
00:02:35.919 --> 00:02:40.199
<v Speaker 1>to ten at SOFI Stadium. Hey, September is Suicide Prevention Month.

47
00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:42.960
<v Speaker 1>Our very own Debora Mark is taking a closer look

48
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:45.400
<v Speaker 1>at how suicide affects both the people who do it

49
00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:49.120
<v Speaker 1>or attempt it and how it affects those who are

50
00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:51.319
<v Speaker 1>left behind. That's coming up at the bottom of the hour.

51
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:53.800
<v Speaker 1>You are not going to want to miss miss it.

52
00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:57.240
<v Speaker 1>And Neil Savadra and I are not taking a plunge,

53
00:02:57.280 --> 00:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>but we are going to play Dar Devil's We're going

54

55
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:04.120
<v Speaker 1>We're going to tell you about that before the top

56
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:05.919
<v Speaker 1>of the hour at six o' five. It's handled on

57
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:08.919
<v Speaker 1>the news. The mom of the suspected school shooter in

58
00:03:08.960 --> 00:03:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Georgia from last week called the school before the shooting.

59
00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:12.879
<v Speaker 5>I'll tell you about that.

60
00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:15.039
<v Speaker 1>Let's get started with some of the stories coming out

61
00:03:15.039 --> 00:03:18.159
<v Speaker 1>of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Evacuation orders are

62
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:21.319
<v Speaker 1>in place in the San Bernardino County Mountains, where a

63
00:03:21.360 --> 00:03:23.680
<v Speaker 1>fire that started in Highland has grown to more than

64
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:26.560
<v Speaker 1>twenty thousand acres. The fire has been burning since Thursday night.

65
00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:30.840
<v Speaker 1>It's threatening more than thirty six thousand homes and other buildings.

66
00:03:31.080 --> 00:03:35.000
<v Speaker 1>The areas under evacuation orders include the communities of Running Springs,

67
00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:38.319
<v Speaker 1>Forest Falls, and Arrowbear. This man says he's staying at

68
00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:40.759
<v Speaker 1>a Red Cross shelter with his dog because he has

69
00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:41.599
<v Speaker 1>nowhere else to.

70
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:42.759
<v Speaker 6>Go, no family.

00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:49.800
<v Speaker 7>That's in southern California, and I'm not driving seven hours

72
00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:51.800
<v Speaker 7>to go see my kids or my ex wife.

00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:55.520
<v Speaker 1>Lake Arrowhead, Crestline and Seven Oaks are under evacuation warnings.

<v Speaker 1>Governor Knewsom declared a state of emergency for the county

75
00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:01.199
<v Speaker 1>over the weekend. Firefighters say the fire burns so hot

76
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:04.400
<v Speaker 1>on Saturday it created its own weather system that could

77
00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:07.800
<v Speaker 1>spawn lightning and gusty winds. Another fifty four homes in

78
00:04:07.919 --> 00:04:10.960
<v Speaker 1>Rancho Palace Vertes are having their electricity shut off because

00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:37.680
<v Speaker 1>your wake up call. Let's say good morning to ABC's

87
00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:41.839
<v Speaker 1>Karen Travers. Karen, the big debate is tomorrow night, could

88
00:04:41.879 --> 00:04:45.600
<v Speaker 1>be the only one. Yeah, tell us how they're preparing

89
00:04:45.639 --> 00:04:45.920
<v Speaker 1>for it.

90
00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:46.480
<v Speaker 8>Yeah.

91
00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:49.120
<v Speaker 9>So the Vice President has been in Pittsburgh for the

92
00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:52.959
<v Speaker 9>last couple of days, hunkered down with senior advisors, preparing

93
00:04:53.079 --> 00:04:55.879
<v Speaker 9>for what could be the only debate of this election

94
00:04:56.040 --> 00:04:59.160
<v Speaker 9>cycle between her and former President Donald Trump. She is

95
00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:02.959
<v Speaker 9>traveling to Fillladelphia today to be ready and be there

96
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:06.040
<v Speaker 9>in advance of tomorrow night. But you know she's preparing

97
00:05:06.199 --> 00:05:10.079
<v Speaker 9>is very traditional debate prep. She's doing mock debates. They

98
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:12.839
<v Speaker 9>set up a stage at her hotel with full lighting

99
00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:13.920
<v Speaker 9>so she can.

100
00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:17.000
<v Speaker 8>Do a recreation of what it will be like tomorrow night.

101
00:05:17.079 --> 00:05:19.519
<v Speaker 9>On that stage, she has a stand in for Donald

102
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:22.319
<v Speaker 9>Trump as somebody who is kind of going full method actor,

103
00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:26.759
<v Speaker 9>taking this role very seriously, and we're told that, you know,

104
00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:29.759
<v Speaker 9>she is planning to focus a lot on Donald Trump

105
00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:32.160
<v Speaker 9>and his record tomorrow night. You know, a lot of

106
00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:34.800
<v Speaker 9>the campaign strategy for the last couple of weeks has

107
00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:39.319
<v Speaker 9>been introducing herself to voters, defining herself and her message

108
00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:39.879
<v Speaker 9>for voters.

109
00:05:39.879 --> 00:05:42.439
<v Speaker 8>Certainly a lot of that at the DNC in August.

110
00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:45.319
<v Speaker 9>But you know, now the campaign says they want to

111
00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:49.160
<v Speaker 9>combat what they feel is Trump amnesia, voters forgetting what

112
00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:51.360
<v Speaker 9>his four years in the White House were like. So

113
00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:54.439
<v Speaker 9>look for her to really focus on that tomorrow on

114
00:05:54.519 --> 00:05:57.519
<v Speaker 9>the debate stage and also try to go on the attack,

115
00:05:57.759 --> 00:06:00.560
<v Speaker 9>to go after him and try to get under his

116
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:03.639
<v Speaker 9>skin and rattle him. As one person said, you know,

117
00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:05.519
<v Speaker 9>to make Trump go full Trump.

118
00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:09.480
<v Speaker 1>Okay, And so she's been hunkered down and she's doing

119
00:06:09.560 --> 00:06:10.319
<v Speaker 1>all this prep.

120
00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:13.720
<v Speaker 5>He isn't doing that so much. He was out at

121
00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:15.040
<v Speaker 5>a rally over the weekend.

122
00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:17.480
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, he has a different way of doing this.

123
00:06:17.560 --> 00:06:19.920
<v Speaker 9>He did it before his debate with Joe Biden back

124
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:23.439
<v Speaker 9>in June. He did this the last couple cycles. And remember,

125
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:26.000
<v Speaker 9>you know, he's experienced at this. This is his seventh

126
00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:29.040
<v Speaker 9>presidential debate because he's run for president three times. But

127
00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:31.720
<v Speaker 9>one thing that's been interesting is that he is preparing

128
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:35.319
<v Speaker 9>more than he is letting on. He's not doing mock debates,

129
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:36.879
<v Speaker 9>they're not setting up a stage in a.

130
00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:37.680
<v Speaker 8>Hotel for him.

131
00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:41.519
<v Speaker 9>But he is doing policy sessions with a team of advisors,

132
00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:45.839
<v Speaker 9>including Congressman Nat Gates, former Congresswoman Tulci Gabbard, who actually

133
00:06:45.879 --> 00:06:48.160
<v Speaker 9>was on a debate stage with the vice president back

134
00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:51.079
<v Speaker 9>in twenty nineteen. And we're also told that as part

135
00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:54.480
<v Speaker 9>of the preparation, the former President's been briefed on Harris's

136
00:06:54.639 --> 00:06:58.600
<v Speaker 9>past debates, including that very viral moment back in twenty

137
00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:02.240
<v Speaker 9>twenty with Vice pre it might Pence when they were

138
00:07:02.279 --> 00:07:04.879
<v Speaker 9>talking and she's fired back at him.

139
00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:07.680
<v Speaker 8>I'm speaking. That one very viral.

140
00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:10.759
<v Speaker 9>And we are told that Donald Trump has told his

141
00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:13.639
<v Speaker 9>aides and allies that he does not want to let

142
00:07:13.639 --> 00:07:16.439
<v Speaker 9>that happen and won't let that happen to him tomorrow night.

143
00:07:17.079 --> 00:07:21.360
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So do debates, Karen, from your experience, because I

144
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:23.079
<v Speaker 1>know you've been following this for a while, do they

145
00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:25.040
<v Speaker 1>really change people's minds?

146
00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:27.360
<v Speaker 8>I mean, look at what happened in June.

147
00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:29.480
<v Speaker 9>I think that's always going to be the thing that

148
00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:33.079
<v Speaker 9>we point out of Do debates matter? I think everybody

149
00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:36.279
<v Speaker 9>will say, look where we are right now, Is something

150
00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:38.959
<v Speaker 9>like that going to happen tomorrow night? I don't know,

151
00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:43.360
<v Speaker 9>but you know, it's just the moments are unexpected. You

152
00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:45.560
<v Speaker 9>don't know what the candidates are going to show up,

153
00:07:45.639 --> 00:07:50.600
<v Speaker 9>like what question might trip somebody up, and they're significant.

154
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:51.800
<v Speaker 8>I think this one is so.

155
00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:55.879
<v Speaker 9>Notable because there will be so many people tuning into this.

156
00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:59.279
<v Speaker 9>I think there is a very significant interest across the

157
00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:01.920
<v Speaker 9>country in this because it is the first time that

158
00:08:01.959 --> 00:08:03.160
<v Speaker 9>they have ever appeared together.

159
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:03.680
<v Speaker 8>It's actually the.

160
00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:05.519
<v Speaker 9>First time they've ever been face to face, which I

161
00:08:05.560 --> 00:08:08.680
<v Speaker 9>think might be striking to people. They've just never had

162
00:08:08.720 --> 00:08:11.600
<v Speaker 9>a chance to be together before because of course Trump

163
00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:14.560
<v Speaker 9>did not show up the inauguration back in twenty twenty one.

164
00:08:14.959 --> 00:08:17.279
<v Speaker 9>So I think there's such a heightened interest in this,

165
00:08:17.639 --> 00:08:20.720
<v Speaker 9>and the fact that this campaign is kind of, you know, turbocharged,

166
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:23.920
<v Speaker 9>with everything changing over the past couple of weeks, there

167
00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:28.079
<v Speaker 9>is a potential for such a game changing moment tomorrow night,

168
00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:29.879
<v Speaker 9>and there's a lot writing on it for both sides.

169
00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:33.919
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and this probably is the only one we know

170
00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:37.960
<v Speaker 1>that Trump wanted three. The Hairs campaign has only agreed

171
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:39.919
<v Speaker 1>to one. Do we have any rumblings that there might

172
00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:40.279
<v Speaker 1>be another?

173
00:08:40.360 --> 00:08:40.879
<v Speaker 5>Or is this it?

174
00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:44.840
<v Speaker 9>There's you know, discussion, there's like tweets and talk about it,

175
00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:47.679
<v Speaker 9>but this is the only one that is scheduled right now.

176
00:08:47.799 --> 00:08:50.080
<v Speaker 9>I think, you know, the Hairs campaign had said like,

177
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:52.080
<v Speaker 9>he has to show up to this one before they

178
00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:54.960
<v Speaker 9>would talk about anything else. He had wanted to do

179
00:08:55.039 --> 00:08:57.519
<v Speaker 9>one before this one. They said no because that was

180
00:08:57.519 --> 00:08:59.399
<v Speaker 9>not what was scheduled. This was the thing that had

181
00:08:59.399 --> 00:09:02.000
<v Speaker 9>been put on the case. So we'll see what happens

182
00:09:02.039 --> 00:09:04.279
<v Speaker 9>tomorrow night and where they can go from here. You know,

183
00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:07.200
<v Speaker 9>it is a weird calendar season with this coming early.

184
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:10.399
<v Speaker 9>Usually they're like late September, early October. But this does

185
00:09:10.480 --> 00:09:12.559
<v Speaker 9>take people off the campaign trail for a couple of

186
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:14.799
<v Speaker 9>days because of the prep work that goes into it.

187
00:09:14.879 --> 00:09:19.120
<v Speaker 9>So there is that calculation for and against doing another debate.

188
00:09:19.279 --> 00:09:19.440
<v Speaker 5>Yep.

189
00:09:19.480 --> 00:09:21.679
<v Speaker 1>All right, Well, we'll be watching and we appreciate your

190
00:09:21.679 --> 00:09:24.840
<v Speaker 1>insights and hopefully we'll get to maybe get some feedback

191
00:09:24.879 --> 00:09:26.399
<v Speaker 1>about what happened next time we talk to you.

192
00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:27.279
<v Speaker 8>Absolutely.

193
00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:29.279
<v Speaker 5>All right, thank you, Karen, have a great day.

194
00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:30.720
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's get back to some of the stories

195
00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:32.799
<v Speaker 1>coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. A

196
00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:35.200
<v Speaker 1>man's been arrested for the fatal stabbing of a woman

197
00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:38.200
<v Speaker 1>in Costa Mesa. Police recalled last night to an apartment

198
00:09:38.240 --> 00:09:41.559
<v Speaker 1>on Victoria Street. The woman was pronounced dead at the scene.

199
00:09:41.559 --> 00:09:45.080
<v Speaker 1>The man was taken into custody. Investigators in Georgia's say

200
00:09:45.080 --> 00:09:47.480
<v Speaker 1>the fourteen year old charged with killing four people at

201
00:09:47.480 --> 00:09:50.120
<v Speaker 1>his high school had only registered at the school about

202
00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:52.879
<v Speaker 1>two weeks before the shooting. The boys aunt said his

203
00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:55.840
<v Speaker 1>mom had called a school counselor the morning of the

204
00:09:55.840 --> 00:09:59.519
<v Speaker 1>shootings last week to warn the school about an extreme emergency.

205
00:09:59.639 --> 00:10:02.519
<v Speaker 10>Thanks He had told the school counselor to go immediately

206
00:10:02.559 --> 00:10:05.320
<v Speaker 10>and find her son to check on him. According to

207
00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:08.240
<v Speaker 10>the suspect's aunt, the call was made nearly half an

208
00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:09.919
<v Speaker 10>hour before the shooting.

209
00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:14.600
<v Speaker 1>ABC's Allison Kosek says investigators are still looking into the

210
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:17.440
<v Speaker 1>timeline of phone calls and events. We're going to hear

211
00:10:17.519 --> 00:10:22.039
<v Speaker 1>more about the shooting, how horrific it was, and how

212
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:24.519
<v Speaker 1>it actually could have been much worse. We're going to

213
00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:26.960
<v Speaker 1>be talking to ABC's Jim Ryan in just a few minutes.

214
00:10:27.519 --> 00:10:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Ground has been broken on a new homeless shelter for

215
00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:31.279
<v Speaker 1>families in Pasadena.

216
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:34.159
<v Speaker 4>The organization Door of Hope says it's fifth shelter will

217
00:10:34.159 --> 00:10:35.960
<v Speaker 4>be home to twenty families.

218
00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:37.639
<v Speaker 5>Who must give it all a big ground.

219
00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:37.840
<v Speaker 11>Of a bob.

220
00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:42.159
<v Speaker 4>Local leaders on Friday joined David and Catherine Lee, jewelry

221
00:10:42.159 --> 00:10:44.480
<v Speaker 4>retailers in the San Gabriel Valley, for whom the home

222
00:10:44.559 --> 00:10:47.519
<v Speaker 4>is named. It's the former home of Reverend Andy Bales,

223
00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:50.000
<v Speaker 4>who sold it to Door of Hope after retiring as

224
00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:53.360
<v Speaker 4>CEO of Union Rescue Mission on skid Row. The Lee's

225
00:10:53.440 --> 00:10:56.679
<v Speaker 4>donated a million dollars, while the City of Pasadena Supervisor

226
00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:59.960
<v Speaker 4>Catherine Barker's office and others provided other gifts, totally more

227
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:01.879
<v Speaker 4>than four million dollars for the project.

228
00:11:02.159 --> 00:11:04.159
<v Speaker 5>Michael Monks KFI News.

229
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:07.799
<v Speaker 1>As I mentioned a little bit earlier, I did my

230
00:11:07.879 --> 00:11:10.879
<v Speaker 1>first ten k. Don't know if you've ever done one,

231
00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:15.519
<v Speaker 1>but had a couple of lessons learns and some reflections

232
00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:20.120
<v Speaker 1>from it. And of course it was the Disneyland Halloween

233
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:23.679
<v Speaker 1>Time ten k. They did actually three races. They did

234
00:11:23.720 --> 00:11:26.000
<v Speaker 1>a five k, a ten k, and then a half marathon.

235
00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:29.440
<v Speaker 1>And my partner in crime, Nick polio'chini, also did the

236
00:11:29.440 --> 00:11:31.799
<v Speaker 1>ten k with me and the five k the day before.

237
00:11:32.120 --> 00:11:33.360
<v Speaker 5>How are you feeling today, Nick.

238
00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:36.600
<v Speaker 3>I will tell you that my feet are still killing me.

239
00:11:36.799 --> 00:11:38.799
<v Speaker 3>But I had a great time. You and I had

240
00:11:38.840 --> 00:11:41.639
<v Speaker 3>a great time. I was definitely near tears at many

241
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:44.080
<v Speaker 3>many times, having not ever done either, just like you,

242
00:11:44.200 --> 00:11:47.519
<v Speaker 3>never having done this before. But Yeah, it was an

243
00:11:47.519 --> 00:11:50.440
<v Speaker 3>amazing time covering all of the Disneyland resort and running

244
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:52.120
<v Speaker 3>around all that stuff. So it was so much fun.

245
00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:54.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was fun because different than a lot of

246
00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:56.879
<v Speaker 1>runs because well, first it wasn't time.

247
00:11:57.000 --> 00:11:59.000
<v Speaker 5>So to be honest, I rocked most of it. Nick

248
00:11:59.039 --> 00:11:59.759
<v Speaker 5>walked most of it.

249
00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:02.399
<v Speaker 1>We did a few little spurts and we're going to

250
00:12:02.399 --> 00:12:05.080
<v Speaker 1>be sharing some stuff on social media of the pictures.

251
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:06.840
<v Speaker 5>Yes, where it appears that we're running.

252
00:12:06.919 --> 00:12:09.600
<v Speaker 1>We didn't do a lot of running, right, And you

253
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:11.919
<v Speaker 1>mentioned that it was emotional, So again, I don't know

254
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:13.879
<v Speaker 1>if you've ever done any kind of a competitive run

255
00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:17.120
<v Speaker 1>or anything, but we finished and we crossed the finish

256
00:12:17.240 --> 00:12:19.200
<v Speaker 1>line and we went yay, we did it, and then

257
00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:21.399
<v Speaker 1>I got emotional too. I kind of teared up, like

258
00:12:21.440 --> 00:12:23.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm really proud of myself even though we just walked

259
00:12:23.720 --> 00:12:25.600
<v Speaker 1>it and didn't So it was kind of a cool

260
00:12:25.639 --> 00:12:28.039
<v Speaker 1>thing and you really feel this sense of accomplishment, which

261
00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:29.000
<v Speaker 1>I thought was really cool.

262
00:12:29.519 --> 00:12:30.360
<v Speaker 5>No, it's really cool.

263
00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:32.440
<v Speaker 3>And I think the thing the thing that is timed

264
00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:34.639
<v Speaker 3>if you're participating, not what we did, but if you're

265
00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:36.759
<v Speaker 3>doing the half marathon, that is time because that if

266
00:12:36.799 --> 00:12:39.679
<v Speaker 3>you're doing those marathons around the world. It does count

267
00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:42.320
<v Speaker 3>toward those qualifiers, but for what we did with the

268
00:12:42.320 --> 00:12:44.559
<v Speaker 3>five K, five K and the ten k, we know

269
00:12:44.679 --> 00:12:48.360
<v Speaker 3>together those are not counting toward anything. But it really

270
00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:50.399
<v Speaker 3>is a sense of accomplishment. And we ran past people

271
00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:53.320
<v Speaker 3>that were raising money for charities, so that was really

272
00:12:53.320 --> 00:12:56.480
<v Speaker 3>cool to see. We saw community organizations that were coming

273
00:12:56.480 --> 00:13:00.480
<v Speaker 3>out and cheering people on, different cancer organizations out there,

274
00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:04.480
<v Speaker 3>people with different childhood organizations were out there. It was

275
00:13:04.519 --> 00:13:07.840
<v Speaker 3>such a unique experience, and especially because we've worked with

276
00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:11.279
<v Speaker 3>the Children's Hospital Los Angeles before we do the Wigwagga Walk.

277
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:13.919
<v Speaker 3>We do things with Children's Hospital Orange County, so many

278
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:16.519
<v Speaker 3>different organizations, but this was such a different thing because

279
00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:20.519
<v Speaker 3>we walked past and we ran past so many different people,

280
00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:23.399
<v Speaker 3>just people in general, and different groups of people. People

281
00:13:23.480 --> 00:13:25.480
<v Speaker 3>that were making friends first thing in the morning, and

282
00:13:25.519 --> 00:13:27.879
<v Speaker 3>people that were just making friends as we were in

283
00:13:27.919 --> 00:13:29.759
<v Speaker 3>the corrals as they call it, as you're lining up

284
00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:32.080
<v Speaker 3>for the race and had never met before and we're

285
00:13:32.120 --> 00:13:34.960
<v Speaker 3>just trading you know, all of the Taylor Swift era

286
00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:38.080
<v Speaker 3>of trading friendship bracelets, and people were decked out in costumes.

287
00:13:38.080 --> 00:13:40.399
<v Speaker 3>There's a whole different energy than you would ever experience

288
00:13:40.679 --> 00:13:43.600
<v Speaker 3>at any other gathering, even at a Disney style thing.

289
00:13:43.679 --> 00:13:45.799
<v Speaker 5>So it was really really fun. Okay, And here's a

290
00:13:45.840 --> 00:13:47.080
<v Speaker 5>couple of things that I learned.

291
00:13:47.720 --> 00:13:51.000
<v Speaker 1>One as we were going because I don't know if

292
00:13:51.039 --> 00:13:53.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, but I had these ankle issues and it's

293
00:13:53.159 --> 00:13:55.200
<v Speaker 1>a whole other thing, but it's just something you deal with.

294
00:13:55.240 --> 00:13:57.200
<v Speaker 1>But my ankle has been bothering me a lot, so

295
00:13:57.240 --> 00:13:58.440
<v Speaker 1>I didn't even know if I was going to be

296
00:13:58.440 --> 00:14:01.080
<v Speaker 1>able to do it. And it was taking advil on Saturday,

297
00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:02.480
<v Speaker 1>which I don't like to take a lot of aspurn

298
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:03.639
<v Speaker 1>and not that kind of stuff, but I was taking

299
00:14:03.639 --> 00:14:07.080
<v Speaker 1>advil just to hopefully keep the pain down right. Well,

300
00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:09.159
<v Speaker 1>while I was digging in my pocket to get my

301
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:12.000
<v Speaker 1>advill as we were backstage, because you're running inside the

302
00:14:12.000 --> 00:14:13.879
<v Speaker 1>park and then you're running in the backstage area and

303
00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:15.519
<v Speaker 1>then you go back inside and you kind of weave

304
00:14:15.559 --> 00:14:18.639
<v Speaker 1>all over the resort. I was digging into my pocket

305
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:20.639
<v Speaker 1>to get an advil and I lost my credit card.

306
00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:24.039
<v Speaker 5>It fell out right, What a great.

307
00:14:23.840 --> 00:14:25.519
<v Speaker 1>Way to start the day, right, So then you realize

308
00:14:25.519 --> 00:14:27.320
<v Speaker 1>then you get that sick to your stomach. If you've

309
00:14:27.320 --> 00:14:29.240
<v Speaker 1>ever lost a credit card or had it stolen. You

310
00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:31.840
<v Speaker 1>just freak out. So I filed my report and I

311
00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:33.879
<v Speaker 1>was like, well, I better kiss this buddy, but goodbye.

312
00:14:33.919 --> 00:14:35.200
<v Speaker 1>But I thought, you know what, I'm not going to

313
00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:38.840
<v Speaker 1>cancel it yet because it's Disneyland. I got my credit

314
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:44.679
<v Speaker 1>card back like eight hours later. But they it's another

315
00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:46.759
<v Speaker 1>It's just a testament to Disney. Really, and you guys

316
00:14:46.799 --> 00:14:48.759
<v Speaker 1>know that we're both Nick and I are big Disney fans.

317
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:50.840
<v Speaker 1>But it's a testament to Disney that I got a

318
00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:54.360
<v Speaker 1>credit card returned that was lost fell out of my

319
00:14:54.399 --> 00:14:57.600
<v Speaker 1>pocket in the park. So I mean kudos to Disney.

320
00:14:57.639 --> 00:14:59.440
<v Speaker 1>And here's the other thing I learned. I was really

321
00:14:59.440 --> 00:15:01.600
<v Speaker 1>feeling sick. We did a lot of we were drinking

322
00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:03.480
<v Speaker 1>our water and doing all that, and then we had

323
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:07.159
<v Speaker 1>a nice breakfast after the race, but I was still

324
00:15:07.159 --> 00:15:09.399
<v Speaker 1>not feeling well and my friend Heidi, who came to

325
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:11.519
<v Speaker 1>town to cheer us on, said we need to get

326
00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:14.279
<v Speaker 1>you a pickle. I was like, what are you talking about,

327
00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:17.919
<v Speaker 1>and so got they'd sell those big giant pickles at Disneyland.

328
00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:21.879
<v Speaker 1>I had a pickle and almost immediately felt better, and

329
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:24.639
<v Speaker 1>it was because I was replenishing the salt in my body.

330
00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:26.759
<v Speaker 1>Even though I was drinking water. You know, you lose

331
00:15:27.039 --> 00:15:29.399
<v Speaker 1>salt and stuff because you're sweating. Plus it was one

332
00:15:29.440 --> 00:15:32.600
<v Speaker 1>hundred and ten degrees, so you're sweating profusely. So if

333
00:15:32.639 --> 00:15:36.200
<v Speaker 1>you're ever feeling overheated and you've been sweating a lot

334
00:15:36.240 --> 00:15:39.960
<v Speaker 1>and you're feeling a little off, get yourself a big

335
00:15:40.000 --> 00:15:43.399
<v Speaker 1>giant dill pickle. It really I was amazed how immediately

336
00:15:43.440 --> 00:15:44.320
<v Speaker 1>it made me feel better.

337
00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:46.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, look out, gettorade.

338
00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:47.679
<v Speaker 3>Here comes the ultimate electrolyte for you.

339
00:15:47.759 --> 00:15:50.320
<v Speaker 1>Well think about it, and a pickle a lot more

340
00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:52.519
<v Speaker 1>natural than the gatorade.

341
00:15:52.600 --> 00:15:55.039
<v Speaker 5>And like I said, so pickles can save your life.

342
00:15:55.120 --> 00:15:59.039
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so we took some really stupid fun videos. We're

343
00:15:59.039 --> 00:16:01.720
<v Speaker 1>putting those together and I'm going to put it up

344
00:16:01.759 --> 00:16:06.039
<v Speaker 1>on my Instagram shortly. It's at amy Kking and at

345
00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:09.399
<v Speaker 1>KFI AM six forty. It may be the first and

346
00:16:09.519 --> 00:16:12.679
<v Speaker 1>last time you ever see us running a front ten k,

347
00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:15.600
<v Speaker 1>but we invite you to come and check that out. Also,

348
00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:17.879
<v Speaker 1>we'd love to hear you to follow me at amy

349
00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:20.960
<v Speaker 1>K King and Nick POULIOCHANI where can they follow you?

350
00:16:21.000 --> 00:16:22.440
<v Speaker 5>Because I'm sure you're posting stuff too.

351
00:16:23.039 --> 00:16:25.000
<v Speaker 3>I will be posting stuff at this week with Nick

352
00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:28.279
<v Speaker 3>and Nick Poliochanni, both of those on Instagram, so definitely

353
00:16:28.320 --> 00:16:30.240
<v Speaker 3>check us out. We had a really really good time.

354
00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:33.200
<v Speaker 1>Yes, we did the latest on the fire burning in

355
00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:38.000
<v Speaker 1>San Bernardino County near Highland. More than twenty thousand acres burned,

356
00:16:38.360 --> 00:16:42.600
<v Speaker 1>zero percent surrounded and lots of evacuations in the areas

357
00:16:43.039 --> 00:16:44.679
<v Speaker 1>and fighting that fire in a one hundred and ten

358
00:16:44.720 --> 00:16:45.240
<v Speaker 1>degree weather.

359
00:16:45.399 --> 00:16:46.159
<v Speaker 5>My goodness.

360
00:16:46.480 --> 00:16:49.039
<v Speaker 1>The extreme heat is about to move out of southern

361
00:16:49.039 --> 00:16:52.360
<v Speaker 1>California and excessive heat warning though will remain in effect

362
00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:56.120
<v Speaker 1>until eight pm. The National Weather Services We're going to

363
00:16:56.200 --> 00:16:58.399
<v Speaker 1>cool down tomorrow. By Wednesday, temperatures are going to be

364
00:16:58.440 --> 00:17:00.919
<v Speaker 1>back in the seventies and eighties. That's going to go

365
00:17:00.919 --> 00:17:03.679
<v Speaker 1>through the rest of the week. The race for the

366
00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:06.640
<v Speaker 1>White House is a virtual tie a day ahead of

367
00:17:06.680 --> 00:17:09.680
<v Speaker 1>the first and possibly only presidential debate. A poll release

368
00:17:09.759 --> 00:17:12.119
<v Speaker 1>yesterday by The New York Times in Santa College gives

369
00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:15.359
<v Speaker 1>former President Trump a forty eight to forty seven percent

370
00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:18.119
<v Speaker 1>lead over Vice President Harris. That is within the margin

371
00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:19.359
<v Speaker 1>of error at.

372
00:17:19.240 --> 00:17:19.799
<v Speaker 5>Six oh five.

373
00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:22.200
<v Speaker 1>It's handle in the news. Classes in Kentucky have been

374
00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:25.640
<v Speaker 1>canceled today in Central Kentucky anyway, as a search for

375
00:17:25.720 --> 00:17:28.279
<v Speaker 1>a freeway shooter continues. Bill's going to tell you about that.

376
00:17:28.720 --> 00:17:29.000
<v Speaker 5>Right now.

377
00:17:29.160 --> 00:17:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Let's say good morning to ABC's Jim Ryan. Unfortunately, we're

378
00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:36.400
<v Speaker 1>talking about another shooter. The high school shooting at Appalachi

379
00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:39.640
<v Speaker 1>High School last week was of course horrific. Four people

380
00:17:39.680 --> 00:17:43.319
<v Speaker 1>were killed, nine others were shot, but they're thankfully going

381
00:17:43.359 --> 00:17:46.039
<v Speaker 1>to survive. And you say, Jim, that it could have

382
00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:47.000
<v Speaker 1>been much worse.

383
00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:50.240
<v Speaker 12>Well, yes, that school and schools all over the country

384
00:17:50.279 --> 00:17:53.480
<v Speaker 12>have been making preparations going into this school year, doing

385
00:17:53.599 --> 00:17:56.839
<v Speaker 12>different things to try to quote harden the school as

386
00:17:56.839 --> 00:18:00.680
<v Speaker 12>a target against this sort of activity. This district and

387
00:18:01.559 --> 00:18:05.880
<v Speaker 12>thousands around the country have contracted with one particular company.

388
00:18:05.759 --> 00:18:09.680
<v Speaker 12>The company called Crisis Alert Systems. It's made Atlanta based

389
00:18:09.680 --> 00:18:15.240
<v Speaker 12>at firm, and it's kind of multifaceted that has teachers

390
00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:18.680
<v Speaker 12>wearing the name badges or badges that have a button

391
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:21.119
<v Speaker 12>on them, and so if there's a minor emergency in

392
00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:24.400
<v Speaker 12>a classroom, somebody has a nosebleed or some minor small thing,

393
00:18:24.480 --> 00:18:26.200
<v Speaker 12>they can press the button a couple of times and

394
00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:28.680
<v Speaker 12>help will be coming down from the principal's office. Press

395
00:18:28.720 --> 00:18:31.799
<v Speaker 12>the button eight times, as the teachers and administrators did

396
00:18:32.079 --> 00:18:36.920
<v Speaker 12>on Wednesday, at Apalachi High School and school resource officers

397
00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:39.400
<v Speaker 12>are on the way, police are on their way, Strobe

398
00:18:39.480 --> 00:18:43.240
<v Speaker 12>lights are flashing, a PA message is telling everyone to

399
00:18:43.279 --> 00:18:47.359
<v Speaker 12>go onto lockdown, down mooade and the doors are automatically locked,

400
00:18:47.400 --> 00:18:51.599
<v Speaker 12>and so that appears to have limited the damn. I mean, obviously,

401
00:18:51.839 --> 00:18:54.559
<v Speaker 12>if you were related to or you either of the

402
00:18:54.559 --> 00:18:56.880
<v Speaker 12>two students or the two teachers who died, this is

403
00:18:56.880 --> 00:18:59.799
<v Speaker 12>a horrific loss, it really is, But the numbers could

404
00:18:59.799 --> 00:19:01.039
<v Speaker 12>have been much much hiring me.

405
00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:04.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and it's so hard to say that was the

406
00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:07.720
<v Speaker 1>good news when it was happening. So do you think

407
00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:14.160
<v Speaker 1>bringing parents into the mix in these school shootings and

408
00:19:14.200 --> 00:19:17.279
<v Speaker 1>holding them accountable like the father has also been arrested

409
00:19:17.319 --> 00:19:19.640
<v Speaker 1>sort of switching tack on you. Do you think that

410
00:19:19.640 --> 00:19:21.839
<v Speaker 1>that's going to bring any change to the number of

411
00:19:21.880 --> 00:19:23.680
<v Speaker 1>school shootings.

412
00:19:23.720 --> 00:19:26.200
<v Speaker 12>It's hard to say. If it convinces a parent to

413
00:19:26.720 --> 00:19:30.000
<v Speaker 12>somehow secure the weapons that might be in the house,

414
00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:32.759
<v Speaker 12>or in the case of Apple Acgy not to give

415
00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:37.480
<v Speaker 12>the kid an assault style rifle as a Christmas gift,

416
00:19:37.960 --> 00:19:41.160
<v Speaker 12>then maybe so. But I mean it's sort of mixed

417
00:19:41.200 --> 00:19:44.039
<v Speaker 12>result there. Because we had a case in Santa Fe,

418
00:19:44.160 --> 00:19:48.640
<v Speaker 12>Texas down by Houston where a shooting in twenty seventeen.

419
00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:50.960
<v Speaker 12>I think it was several people were killed in that

420
00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:55.200
<v Speaker 12>school shooting. The student who was responsible has been found

421
00:19:55.240 --> 00:19:59.240
<v Speaker 12>incompetent to stand trial, so parents sued his parents. Parents

422
00:19:59.279 --> 00:20:02.160
<v Speaker 12>are the victims suit the parents of the suspect in

423
00:20:02.200 --> 00:20:05.000
<v Speaker 12>that case for a million dollars, saying that they should

424
00:20:05.039 --> 00:20:07.680
<v Speaker 12>have secured the weapons, they should have seen the mental

425
00:20:07.720 --> 00:20:10.920
<v Speaker 12>health issues that their son was having, etc. The jury

426
00:20:10.960 --> 00:20:14.799
<v Speaker 12>found in favor of the shooters' parents. They found that

427
00:20:14.839 --> 00:20:18.319
<v Speaker 12>they were not liable for this, So there's kind of

428
00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:21.720
<v Speaker 12>a mixed messaging there. The father out in Georgia faced

429
00:20:21.799 --> 00:20:24.920
<v Speaker 12>criminal chargers. Those down in Santa Fe, Texas were looking

430
00:20:24.960 --> 00:20:27.240
<v Speaker 12>at civil charges. Maybe that would be the difference there.

431
00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:30.119
<v Speaker 12>But I think you're right. I mean, the specter if

432
00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:33.640
<v Speaker 12>a parent looks at those guns in the gun cabinet

433
00:20:33.680 --> 00:20:36.160
<v Speaker 12>which is not locked, and here's about a case in

434
00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:38.400
<v Speaker 12>which a kid shot up a school and the parents

435
00:20:38.440 --> 00:20:41.200
<v Speaker 12>were held responsible, if that convincesn't to lock that cabinet,

436
00:20:41.200 --> 00:20:43.319
<v Speaker 12>then yeah, there could be some effect from it.

437
00:20:43.480 --> 00:20:45.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, or, like you said, after the FBI came out

438
00:20:46.000 --> 00:20:49.039
<v Speaker 1>and talked to that family because of a possible threat

439
00:20:49.079 --> 00:20:51.839
<v Speaker 1>that was made a couple months later is when they're

440
00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:54.319
<v Speaker 1>saying that the dad bought the kid a gun.

441
00:20:54.440 --> 00:20:55.880
<v Speaker 5>I was like, what are you thinking?

442
00:20:56.319 --> 00:21:01.000
<v Speaker 12>Right right? You know, they believe that. Even the the

443
00:21:01.000 --> 00:21:04.640
<v Speaker 12>sheriff's investigators who went and talked to the family, talked

444
00:21:04.640 --> 00:21:06.440
<v Speaker 12>to the father and talked to the son. They said, well,

445
00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:08.240
<v Speaker 12>we don't see have any evidence that he was making

446
00:21:08.319 --> 00:21:11.720
<v Speaker 12>threats on discord this gaming platform. The kid says he didn't,

447
00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:14.759
<v Speaker 12>the dad says he didn't. So they more or less

448
00:21:14.759 --> 00:21:17.480
<v Speaker 12>dismissed this whole thing, you know, despite warnings coming from

449
00:21:17.480 --> 00:21:20.279
<v Speaker 12>the FBI. So but in a situation like when you

450
00:21:20.279 --> 00:21:23.599
<v Speaker 12>have a system like this, a security system inside of school,

451
00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:26.960
<v Speaker 12>it's not going to work unless that advance work has

452
00:21:27.000 --> 00:21:30.039
<v Speaker 12>done that. You know, the first of all, the school

453
00:21:30.119 --> 00:21:32.519
<v Speaker 12>has to have locking doors, has to have this PA

454
00:21:32.680 --> 00:21:36.880
<v Speaker 12>system school wide, the strobe lights, and then you know,

455
00:21:36.960 --> 00:21:41.759
<v Speaker 12>and working cameras. But how do you prevent something like that?

456
00:21:42.640 --> 00:21:44.759
<v Speaker 12>You know, That's that's the hard part. This is all

457
00:21:44.759 --> 00:21:47.799
<v Speaker 12>this stuff is a matter of responding to as opposed

458
00:21:47.839 --> 00:21:50.400
<v Speaker 12>to preventing school shootings like this.

459
00:21:50.759 --> 00:21:54.039
<v Speaker 5>That's the trick, and unfortunately we have to respond.

460
00:21:54.039 --> 00:21:57.119
<v Speaker 1>But I'm glad to see that they are implementing these

461
00:21:57.160 --> 00:21:58.359
<v Speaker 1>things too, hopefully.

462
00:21:58.799 --> 00:22:02.440
<v Speaker 12>Yes, you know, six thousand schools around the country had

463
00:22:02.440 --> 00:22:05.119
<v Speaker 12>that same system in place now within just the last

464
00:22:05.119 --> 00:22:09.400
<v Speaker 12>couple of years. Eighty percent in Georgia, and schools around Florida, Nevada,

465
00:22:09.400 --> 00:22:11.480
<v Speaker 12>and Alabama have similar systems.

466
00:22:11.880 --> 00:22:14.200
<v Speaker 1>It is our reality. Jim Ryan, thank you so much

467
00:22:14.200 --> 00:22:16.799
<v Speaker 1>for the information. Appreciated. Thanks you all right, we'll talk

468
00:22:16.799 --> 00:22:18.839
<v Speaker 1>to you soon. Let's get back to some of the

469
00:22:18.880 --> 00:22:23.200
<v Speaker 1>stories coming into the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. LEDWP

470
00:22:23.400 --> 00:22:26.599
<v Speaker 1>crews have been working overtime to restore electricity loss during

471
00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:29.319
<v Speaker 1>the heat wave. More than fifteen thousand customers are still

472
00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:32.759
<v Speaker 1>without power as of last night. Harvard Park, Hollywood, and

473
00:22:32.799 --> 00:22:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Northridge are among the communities with the most customers impacted.

474
00:22:36.559 --> 00:22:39.039
<v Speaker 1>A concert at the Hollywood Bowl had to be canceled

475
00:22:39.079 --> 00:22:41.640
<v Speaker 1>last night because the power went out. The State Food

476
00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:44.519
<v Speaker 1>Bank Association is met with Orange and La County food

477
00:22:44.519 --> 00:22:48.400
<v Speaker 1>banks to address the latest USDA food security stats.

478
00:22:48.599 --> 00:22:51.559
<v Speaker 2>The USDA report found more than forty seven million people

479
00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:53.720
<v Speaker 2>struggled to put food on the table last year, which

480
00:22:53.799 --> 00:22:56.319
<v Speaker 2>was three point two million more than in twenty twenty two.

481
00:22:56.680 --> 00:23:00.680
<v Speaker 2>California Association of Food Banks CEO Station Elevenfields says despite

482
00:23:00.680 --> 00:23:03.920
<v Speaker 2>California producing almost half of the nation's fruits and vegetables,

483
00:23:04.079 --> 00:23:06.559
<v Speaker 2>almost nine million people in the state are short on food.

484
00:23:06.680 --> 00:23:09.319
<v Speaker 13>As of June of this year, twenty six percent of

485
00:23:09.359 --> 00:23:12.960
<v Speaker 13>families with children across California communities are food insecure.

486
00:23:13.079 --> 00:23:15.240
<v Speaker 2>She says that status similar to the early months of

487
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:17.039
<v Speaker 2>the pandemic in Orange County.

<v Speaker 5>Corbin Carson kf I.

489
00:23:18.559 --> 00:23:22.680
<v Speaker 1>News study finds Santa Monica is the fifth most expensive

490
00:23:22.759 --> 00:23:27.799
<v Speaker 1>vacation destination in the US. Experts at travel agency Magical

491
00:23:27.880 --> 00:23:31.119
<v Speaker 1>NEPAL have analyzed more than one hundred well known attractions

492
00:23:31.119 --> 00:23:35.559
<v Speaker 1>across the country. Based on daily meal expenses, public transportation cost,

493
00:23:35.640 --> 00:23:41.279
<v Speaker 1>accommodation rates, and attraction fees. Santa Monica costs six hundred

494
00:23:41.279 --> 00:23:45.839
<v Speaker 1>and thirteen dollars per day or nine hundred and twenty

495
00:23:45.880 --> 00:23:50.480
<v Speaker 1>eight dollars per week. The most expensive destination is Aspen, Colorado,

496
00:23:50.559 --> 00:23:53.400
<v Speaker 1>at seven hundred and seventy nine per day. The most

497
00:23:53.440 --> 00:23:57.640
<v Speaker 1>affordable is Charleston, West Virginia, at one hundred and ninety

498
00:23:57.640 --> 00:24:00.880
<v Speaker 1>four dollars per person per day. A wildfire in the

499
00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:04.599
<v Speaker 1>mountains of San Bernardino County continues to rage out of control.

500
00:24:05.079 --> 00:24:07.839
<v Speaker 1>The fire that started Thursday has burned through more than

501
00:24:07.920 --> 00:24:10.920
<v Speaker 1>twenty thousand acres of forest land. It's threatening nearly five

502
00:24:10.960 --> 00:24:14.039
<v Speaker 1>thousand homes in Running Springs and highland. The fire is

503
00:24:14.079 --> 00:24:19.240
<v Speaker 1>still zero percent surrounded. LA County firefighters are working to

504
00:24:19.400 --> 00:24:22.359
<v Speaker 1>surround an eight hundred acre brush fire that has prompted

505
00:24:22.440 --> 00:24:25.880
<v Speaker 1>road closures and evacuations. The fire started yesterday afternoon near

506
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:29.599
<v Speaker 1>East Fork and Glendora Mountain Roads. Highway thirty nine and

507
00:24:29.680 --> 00:24:32.920
<v Speaker 1>Glendora Mountain and Glendora Ridge Roads have been closed. LA

508
00:24:33.039 --> 00:24:35.880
<v Speaker 1>National Force officials have cleared visitors out of the area.

509
00:24:36.319 --> 00:24:38.839
<v Speaker 1>A man has been rescued from a thirty six inch

510
00:24:39.119 --> 00:24:42.519
<v Speaker 1>drainage pipe in Oxnar. The Ventura County Fire Department used

511
00:24:42.680 --> 00:24:46.920
<v Speaker 1>robot technology to pinpoint the man's location, and then crews

512
00:24:46.920 --> 00:24:48.839
<v Speaker 1>had to cut a hole in the pipe to get

513
00:24:48.880 --> 00:24:51.359
<v Speaker 1>him out. He's been taken to the hospital. No word

514
00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:53.559
<v Speaker 1>on how long he was in there or how he

515
00:24:53.640 --> 00:24:56.400
<v Speaker 1>got in there. At six oh five, it's handle on

516
00:24:56.480 --> 00:25:00.480
<v Speaker 1>the news. LA is getting a new area code. I

517
00:25:00.480 --> 00:25:02.440
<v Speaker 1>don't know what's gotten into me. I did my very

518
00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:05.359
<v Speaker 1>first ten K over the weekend, and now Neil and

519
00:25:05.359 --> 00:25:07.799
<v Speaker 1>I are about to go over the edge to fight

520
00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:09.839
<v Speaker 1>homelessness in LA We're going to tell you about that

521
00:25:09.920 --> 00:25:15.079
<v Speaker 1>coming up in about fifteen minutes. September is National Suicide

522
00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Prevention and Awareness Month.

523
00:25:16.880 --> 00:25:20.279
<v Speaker 14>And experts say suicide remains one of the leading causes

524
00:25:20.319 --> 00:25:21.400
<v Speaker 14>of death Nationally.

525
00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:25.240
<v Speaker 15>We've seen a continual increase in the number of people

526
00:25:25.319 --> 00:25:30.400
<v Speaker 15>dying by suicide, with approximately fifty thousand people dying by suicide,

527
00:25:30.440 --> 00:25:33.440
<v Speaker 15>and here in California we have about four thousand people

528
00:25:33.519 --> 00:25:34.880
<v Speaker 15>dying by suicide each year.

529
00:25:34.960 --> 00:25:38.680
<v Speaker 14>Sherry Sinwelski is with Deede Hirsch Mental Health Services. In

530
00:25:38.759 --> 00:25:42.119
<v Speaker 14>twenty twenty, there were eight hundred twenty nine suicides in

531
00:25:42.279 --> 00:25:45.759
<v Speaker 14>La County, making it the eighth leading cause of death,

532
00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:49.119
<v Speaker 14>and officials say more than thirty three hundred people tried

533
00:25:49.119 --> 00:25:50.759
<v Speaker 14>to kill themselves that same year.

534
00:25:50.880 --> 00:25:54.359
<v Speaker 15>It's a combination of stressors. It can be mental illness

535
00:25:54.359 --> 00:25:57.839
<v Speaker 15>that they're struggling with particular things that are happening in

536
00:25:57.880 --> 00:26:00.119
<v Speaker 15>their life. You know, we're still coming off of a

537
00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:04.079
<v Speaker 15>pandemic where there was a lot of isolation. People of course,

538
00:26:04.200 --> 00:26:09.400
<v Speaker 15>are facing financial constraints sometimes and all different types of

539
00:26:09.839 --> 00:26:12.839
<v Speaker 15>events that are impacting their personal lives. And I think

540
00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:15.640
<v Speaker 15>that those stressors have gotten more intense.

541
00:26:20.279 --> 00:26:24.240
<v Speaker 7>Ah Well, a younger brother died by suicide twenty one

542
00:26:24.319 --> 00:26:24.759
<v Speaker 7>years ago.

543
00:26:25.119 --> 00:26:28.400
<v Speaker 14>That's Rick Mogel. The death of his brother would be

544
00:26:28.440 --> 00:26:30.960
<v Speaker 14>the start of his journey as a bereavement counselor at

545
00:26:31.039 --> 00:26:35.079
<v Speaker 14>DDE Hirsh. Did you ever feel embarrassed or did you

546
00:26:35.119 --> 00:26:39.319
<v Speaker 14>ever feel uncomfortable or concerned about what people would say

547
00:26:39.359 --> 00:26:41.720
<v Speaker 14>when you told them what happened to your brother.

548
00:26:42.200 --> 00:26:46.480
<v Speaker 7>No, I was very forthcoming, shouting from the rooftops because

549
00:26:46.480 --> 00:26:50.319
<v Speaker 7>I didn't want anybody to feel that. First of all,

550
00:26:50.359 --> 00:26:54.480
<v Speaker 7>that ed suicide to find him, nor did it define me.

551
00:26:54.759 --> 00:26:57.200
<v Speaker 14>But Rick says, if you're not comfortable talking about the

552
00:26:57.240 --> 00:26:59.839
<v Speaker 14>details of a loved one's suicide, then don't.

553
00:27:00.039 --> 00:27:03.640
<v Speaker 7>You have every right to say to somebody who wants

554
00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:06.559
<v Speaker 7>to all the details that you have every right to

555
00:27:06.599 --> 00:27:09.599
<v Speaker 7>say to somebody. It's too painful and I don't want

556
00:27:09.640 --> 00:27:10.519
<v Speaker 7>to talk about it.

557
00:27:18.039 --> 00:27:19.319
<v Speaker 8>So how are you doing? Just at all?

558
00:27:19.839 --> 00:27:20.640
<v Speaker 5>This is Joey.

559
00:27:20.759 --> 00:27:21.400
<v Speaker 8>I'm doing good.

560
00:27:22.119 --> 00:27:23.359
<v Speaker 16>So I fell into.

561
00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:28.799
<v Speaker 17>Massive, deep depression in twenty thirteen after my marriage fell apart.

562
00:27:28.960 --> 00:27:31.240
<v Speaker 14>I met up with him at Northridge Park, a place

563
00:27:31.279 --> 00:27:33.240
<v Speaker 14>he used to come to when he wanted to hide

564
00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:36.000
<v Speaker 14>from people. This is actually the first time he's been

565
00:27:36.039 --> 00:27:38.920
<v Speaker 14>back here since he tried to kill himself in twenty sixteen.

566
00:27:39.599 --> 00:27:42.640
<v Speaker 14>He had moved into his parents' home after his marriage ended.

567
00:27:42.839 --> 00:27:46.000
<v Speaker 17>So I tried to hang myself and I was out.

568
00:27:47.680 --> 00:27:48.319
<v Speaker 14>Who found you?

569
00:27:49.400 --> 00:27:51.200
<v Speaker 17>I woke up and I heard my dad knock on

570
00:27:51.240 --> 00:27:55.799
<v Speaker 17>the door, and I don't know why there's no locks

571
00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:58.720
<v Speaker 17>on my parents' doors. I don't know why he didn't

572
00:27:58.759 --> 00:28:02.359
<v Speaker 17>come in. And I was on the ground and he said, Joey, okay,

573
00:28:03.039 --> 00:28:04.960
<v Speaker 17>and I didn't want to see me, and I said, Dad,

574
00:28:04.960 --> 00:28:07.880
<v Speaker 17>I'm fine, I'm fine. And that was that.

575
00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:09.720
<v Speaker 16>I never told anybody for four.

576
00:28:09.559 --> 00:28:11.759
<v Speaker 6>Years, nobody.

577
00:28:12.799 --> 00:28:19.400
<v Speaker 17>My thought was I was a burden and that I

578
00:28:19.519 --> 00:28:22.519
<v Speaker 17>had nothing to give, that.

579
00:28:22.519 --> 00:28:27.319
<v Speaker 6>I had no hope, that I had no purpose, and

580
00:28:27.359 --> 00:28:29.559
<v Speaker 6>that everyone to be better off if I wasn't around

581
00:28:29.640 --> 00:28:32.759
<v Speaker 6>because I wasn't productive, I wasn't doing anything.

582
00:28:33.000 --> 00:28:34.880
<v Speaker 17>So my thought process was.

583
00:28:36.759 --> 00:28:39.200
<v Speaker 6>This will be better for everyone.

584
00:28:39.359 --> 00:28:41.839
<v Speaker 14>I asked Joey if he ever thought about the people

585
00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:43.000
<v Speaker 14>he would leave behind.

586
00:28:43.160 --> 00:28:45.359
<v Speaker 16>I'm telling you that I thought I was committing an

587
00:28:45.440 --> 00:28:48.720
<v Speaker 16>unselfish act. I thought I was doing something that would

588
00:28:48.720 --> 00:28:54.759
<v Speaker 16>relieve everybody of pain. That's what I thought, and you

589
00:28:54.799 --> 00:28:57.240
<v Speaker 16>can tell me it was selfish of me to do it,

590
00:28:57.279 --> 00:28:59.480
<v Speaker 16>But I will tell you I didn't look at it

591
00:28:59.519 --> 00:29:03.039
<v Speaker 16>that way. So when I hear people say this was

592
00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:07.440
<v Speaker 16>such a selfish thing to do, well, every time I

593
00:29:07.480 --> 00:29:09.799
<v Speaker 16>hear that, I hear that from somebody who's never been

594
00:29:10.319 --> 00:29:13.359
<v Speaker 16>suffered mentally deeply.

595
00:29:14.680 --> 00:29:22.960
<v Speaker 17>To that point, you know, I felt like I was relieving.

596
00:29:24.680 --> 00:29:34.279
<v Speaker 17>Everybody's paid And honestly, I don't know that I thought

597
00:29:34.279 --> 00:29:35.759
<v Speaker 17>about my kids at that time.

598
00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:40.279
<v Speaker 16>It was such a painful time, and I wasn't seeing them,

599
00:29:40.839 --> 00:29:42.880
<v Speaker 16>and I wasn't seen anybody.

600
00:29:47.240 --> 00:29:50.200
<v Speaker 14>Joey says he's much better now. He's been in therapy,

614
00:30:43.400 --> 00:30:47.160
<v Speaker 1>to highlight, So thanks Deborah. Let's get back to some

615
00:30:47.240 --> 00:30:49.079
<v Speaker 1>of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four

616
00:30:49.079 --> 00:30:52.079
<v Speaker 1>hour newsroom. The triple digit heat is sticking around for

617
00:30:52.119 --> 00:30:54.319
<v Speaker 1>at least a couple more days. Excessive heat warnings are

618
00:30:54.319 --> 00:30:56.880

<v Speaker 5>Heather Brooker CA if I knew, Thank you, Heather.

641
00:32:02.000 --> 00:32:04.440
<v Speaker 1>The heat wave pounding southern California is about to break.

642
00:32:04.480 --> 00:32:06.839
<v Speaker 1>The National Weather Service says the extreme heat will persist

643
00:32:06.880 --> 00:32:10.279
<v Speaker 1>through today, where a record high of one twelve was

644
00:32:10.319 --> 00:32:14.319
<v Speaker 1>recorded in downtown LA on Friday. Residents are being urged

645
00:32:14.359 --> 00:32:17.359
<v Speaker 1>to stay indoors, stay hydrated, and check on neighbors. Former

646
00:32:17.440 --> 00:32:21.359
<v Speaker 1>Wyoming Congresswoman Liz Cheney says she's still a conservative but

647
00:32:21.440 --> 00:32:26.599
<v Speaker 1>will vote for Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris for president

648
00:32:26.759 --> 00:32:29.640
<v Speaker 1>this November, and her father, Dick Cheney's going to do

649
00:32:29.680 --> 00:32:33.720
<v Speaker 1>the same. She says a traditional conservative Republican party must

650
00:32:33.759 --> 00:32:35.880
<v Speaker 1>be rebuilt after this election.

651
00:32:36.039 --> 00:32:37.400
<v Speaker 5>Cycle Beetlejuice.

652
00:32:37.519 --> 00:32:40.200
<v Speaker 1>Beetlejuice has scared its way to the top spot at

653
00:32:40.200 --> 00:32:42.960
<v Speaker 1>the box office. The sequel to Tim Burton's nineteen eighty

654
00:32:42.960 --> 00:32:45.279
<v Speaker 1>eight hit horror comedy took in one hundred and ten

655
00:32:45.319 --> 00:32:48.000
<v Speaker 1>million dollars in its opening weekend. That makes it the

656
00:32:48.039 --> 00:32:51.759
<v Speaker 1>second biggest September movie debut of all time. We're just

657
00:32:51.799 --> 00:32:53.640
<v Speaker 1>minutes away from handle on the news this morning, a

658
00:32:53.680 --> 00:32:56.160
<v Speaker 1>concert at the Hollywood Bowl had to be canceled because of.

659
00:32:56.160 --> 00:32:57.680
<v Speaker 5>A power outage of all things.

660
00:32:58.480 --> 00:33:01.400
<v Speaker 1>Let's say good morning now to our own Neil Savadra,

661
00:33:01.440 --> 00:33:02.759
<v Speaker 1>who's joining us a little bit early.

662
00:33:02.880 --> 00:33:04.559
<v Speaker 5>Normally you'll hear him starting at six.

663
00:33:04.640 --> 00:33:06.680
<v Speaker 1>But I said, Neil, come, can you come talk to

664
00:33:06.720 --> 00:33:09.079
<v Speaker 1>me this morning because we're we're about to do something

665
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:11.759
<v Speaker 1>really crazy and we're both doing it together.

666
00:33:12.680 --> 00:33:13.319
<v Speaker 17>Yay.

667
00:33:13.680 --> 00:33:15.279
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I don't know what's gotten into me. First of

668
00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:16.400
<v Speaker 5>ten k and now this.

669
00:33:17.119 --> 00:33:17.839
<v Speaker 3>Look at you?

670
00:33:18.079 --> 00:33:21.960
<v Speaker 5>Okay, this living your best life? Yeah, okay, this is

671
00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:23.279
<v Speaker 5>what this is.

672
00:33:23.960 --> 00:33:28.759
<v Speaker 1>We were approached by the folks at the Union Rescue Mission.

673
00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:34.319
<v Speaker 1>You said, we're doing our fundraiser, our annual fundraiser, and

674
00:33:34.559 --> 00:33:36.799
<v Speaker 1>we would love for you guys to participate. And Neil

675
00:33:36.839 --> 00:33:38.759
<v Speaker 1>and I both went, Okay, we'll do it.

676
00:33:39.920 --> 00:33:41.839
<v Speaker 5>So here's weird.

677
00:33:42.079 --> 00:33:45.839
<v Speaker 1>And I actually I was kind of incentivized to do

678
00:33:45.880 --> 00:33:48.960
<v Speaker 1>this because, you know, during the Olympics when Tom Cruise

679
00:33:49.400 --> 00:33:53.000
<v Speaker 1>repelled down into the stadium to take the Olympic flag

680
00:33:53.039 --> 00:33:55.200
<v Speaker 1>from Mayor Bass and bring it back to the good

681
00:33:55.240 --> 00:33:58.640
<v Speaker 1>old us of A. I said, that's the coolest thing ever.

682
00:33:59.000 --> 00:34:01.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if the Union disku Mission people got

683
00:34:01.000 --> 00:34:04.440
<v Speaker 1>wind of it, but anyway, they reached out and asked

684
00:34:04.480 --> 00:34:06.359
<v Speaker 1>us to basically jump off a building.

685
00:34:07.359 --> 00:34:09.360
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, tell us, tell us what it's going to be.

686
00:34:10.039 --> 00:34:12.440
<v Speaker 11>Well, Amy and I went and checked it out. This

687
00:34:12.559 --> 00:34:15.239
<v Speaker 11>is going to be on September twenty seventh and the

688
00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:18.639
<v Speaker 11>twenty eighth. We're doing our over the Edge on the

689
00:34:18.719 --> 00:34:22.079
<v Speaker 11>twenty seventh. It's at the La Hilton there in Universal City.

690
00:34:22.119 --> 00:34:25.559
<v Speaker 11>You can see it right off the freeway there and

691
00:34:25.920 --> 00:34:30.679
<v Speaker 11>it's there just help one campaign. So currently like seventy

692
00:34:30.960 --> 00:34:35.280
<v Speaker 11>over seventy five thousand people experiencing homelessness in Los Angeles County.

693
00:34:35.840 --> 00:34:42.400
<v Speaker 11>And the thing about the Union Rescue Mission that really

694
00:34:42.480 --> 00:34:47.760
<v Speaker 11>hit me is they don't get help from the government.

695
00:34:48.280 --> 00:34:50.079
<v Speaker 1>And you know why they don't get help from the

696
00:34:50.119 --> 00:34:53.000
<v Speaker 1>far This is this is why I'm behind this too.

697
00:34:53.800 --> 00:34:58.960
<v Speaker 11>Is because they are they have dry services, which means

698
00:34:59.000 --> 00:35:01.800
<v Speaker 11>you can't come in and use drugs, you can't drink,

699
00:35:02.119 --> 00:35:05.880
<v Speaker 11>you have to want help. And that hit me that

700
00:35:07.039 --> 00:35:09.519
<v Speaker 11>so you have to have a place where people can

701
00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:11.920
<v Speaker 11>come in and do drugs for the government to give

702
00:35:11.960 --> 00:35:12.760
<v Speaker 11>you money.

703
00:35:12.840 --> 00:35:16.000
<v Speaker 5>Which seems so crazy. Yeah, it's asked backwards.

704
00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:19.920
<v Speaker 11>So to have the Union Rescue Mission say no, we're

705
00:35:19.920 --> 00:35:23.599
<v Speaker 11>only going to help people that want help, that want

706
00:35:24.159 --> 00:35:29.239
<v Speaker 11>to transition, that want these types of services truly to

707
00:35:29.360 --> 00:35:32.960
<v Speaker 11>get better and get out of their their situation. I

708
00:35:33.159 --> 00:35:36.760
<v Speaker 11>just dug that. And so not only did am I

709
00:35:36.880 --> 00:35:43.440
<v Speaker 11>doing this alongside Amy, but they went on my monthly charity.

710
00:35:44.440 --> 00:35:47.639
<v Speaker 11>So I'm a big believer that you should have at

711
00:35:47.719 --> 00:35:51.000
<v Speaker 11>least three charities, even if you're only given a couple dollars,

712
00:35:51.320 --> 00:35:54.599
<v Speaker 11>an international one, a national one, and a local one.

713
00:35:55.559 --> 00:35:58.320
<v Speaker 11>And that way you're kind of covering your bases and

714
00:35:58.400 --> 00:36:02.360
<v Speaker 11>it doesn't have to be crazy, crazy money. But you

715
00:36:02.400 --> 00:36:08.480
<v Speaker 11>know that's they've been added to my local one. So okay,

716
00:36:08.519 --> 00:36:10.519
<v Speaker 11>I just really believe in what they're doing.

717
00:36:10.639 --> 00:36:13.159
<v Speaker 5>Okay, Yeah, and I feel the same way. And so.

718
00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:16.880
<v Speaker 1>When we were talking with the people from a Union

719
00:36:16.960 --> 00:36:19.320
<v Speaker 1>Rescue Mission. They said, you know, Mother Teresa once said,

720
00:36:19.320 --> 00:36:21.599
<v Speaker 1>if you can't feed one hundred people, then just feed one.

721
00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:24.639
<v Speaker 1>And as Neil mentioned, there's over seventy five thousand homeless

722
00:36:24.760 --> 00:36:27.599
<v Speaker 1>in LA. It's too big, it's too many. We can't

723
00:36:27.800 --> 00:36:30.679
<v Speaker 1>it's like your mind can't wrap yourself or you know,

724
00:36:30.679 --> 00:36:33.719
<v Speaker 1>wrap itself around helping everybody. But if you could just

725
00:36:33.760 --> 00:36:39.039
<v Speaker 1>help one person or one family, then it breaks it

726
00:36:39.119 --> 00:36:39.599
<v Speaker 1>down and it.

727
00:36:39.559 --> 00:36:40.320
<v Speaker 5>Makes it doable.

728
00:36:40.360 --> 00:36:42.320
<v Speaker 1>And so that's the goal of this campaign is to

729
00:36:42.400 --> 00:36:44.239
<v Speaker 1>help one So, like Neil said, doesn't have to be

730
00:36:44.239 --> 00:36:45.920
<v Speaker 1>a lot. If you can donate twenty bucks, if you

731
00:36:45.960 --> 00:36:48.880
<v Speaker 1>can donate one hundred dollars, if you can donate more,

732
00:36:48.960 --> 00:36:51.760
<v Speaker 1>that's great. But if you can't, that's okay because every

733
00:36:51.760 --> 00:36:53.639
<v Speaker 1>bit's going to help. And as Neil said, these are

734
00:36:53.679 --> 00:36:59.079
<v Speaker 1>the people who find themselves in this situation. They want

735
00:36:59.079 --> 00:37:01.559
<v Speaker 1>out of it, they want to get back into housing,

736
00:37:01.880 --> 00:37:05.320
<v Speaker 1>they want to have a better life. And the Union

737
00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:08.559
<v Speaker 1>Rescue Mission feeds a ton of people, but they also

738
00:37:08.679 --> 00:37:13.440
<v Speaker 1>have programs to transition people back into housing, to help

739
00:37:13.519 --> 00:37:15.920
<v Speaker 1>them get back on their feet again. And I am

740
00:37:16.239 --> 00:37:20.000
<v Speaker 1>so into a hand, you know, like reaching out a

741
00:37:20.039 --> 00:37:23.440
<v Speaker 1>helping hand don't. I don't necessarily always love a handout,

742
00:37:23.679 --> 00:37:25.760
<v Speaker 1>but a hand up is a great thing, and that's

743
00:37:25.800 --> 00:37:28.280
<v Speaker 1>what I think that we're trying to help with. So

744
00:37:28.440 --> 00:37:32.079
<v Speaker 1>here's what we're doing. As Neil mentioned on the September

745
00:37:32.119 --> 00:37:34.280
<v Speaker 1>twenty seventh, we're going to go up to the top

746
00:37:34.519 --> 00:37:36.679
<v Speaker 1>of the Universal Hilton and we're going.

747
00:37:36.679 --> 00:37:39.760
<v Speaker 5>To winning four stories. Is it twenty four or twenty five?

748
00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:41.239
<v Speaker 5>I'm going to say twenty five.

749
00:37:41.559 --> 00:37:46.440
<v Speaker 11>Is twenty five, I believe, is the helopad or whatever.

750
00:37:46.199 --> 00:37:48.079
<v Speaker 5>They're Okay, we're not going all the way up to

751
00:37:48.079 --> 00:37:48.880
<v Speaker 5>the helopad now.

752
00:37:49.119 --> 00:37:51.679
<v Speaker 11>I think we go off, which is you know, if

753
00:37:51.719 --> 00:37:53.679
<v Speaker 11>you want to round up there, you're looking at two

754
00:37:53.800 --> 00:37:56.159
<v Speaker 11>hundred and fifty feet basically.

755
00:37:56.360 --> 00:37:58.719
<v Speaker 1>And I will tell you we when we went to

756
00:37:58.800 --> 00:38:00.480
<v Speaker 1>look at it, because I said, I want to go

762
00:38:11.679 --> 00:38:13.719
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be wonderful, it's going to be safe, and

<v Speaker 5>Thank you, Neil, thank you.

802
00:40:03.639 --> 00:40:05.239
<v Speaker 1>Let's get back to some of the stories coming out

803
00:40:05.280 --> 00:40:07.440
<v Speaker 1>of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. A proposal in

804
00:40:07.599 --> 00:40:11.079
<v Speaker 1>La to require pets to be microchiped has moved forward.

805
00:40:11.159 --> 00:40:13.440
<v Speaker 4>More than thirty two hundred pets were reunited with their

806
00:40:13.480 --> 00:40:16.719
<v Speaker 4>families last year by LA Animal Services. City officials say

807
00:40:16.760 --> 00:40:20.360
<v Speaker 4>microchips are critical to such reunions. Any pet adopted from

808
00:40:20.360 --> 00:40:22.519
<v Speaker 4>the city's shelter is already required to have one, but

809
00:40:22.559 --> 00:40:25.639
<v Speaker 4>there's no city law mandating it in all cases. That

810
00:40:25.719 --> 00:40:28.719
<v Speaker 4>could change the city Council's Neighborhoods Committee approved a motion

811
00:40:28.880 --> 00:40:32.039
<v Speaker 4>last week directing Animal Services to explore the feasibility of

812
00:40:32.079 --> 00:40:36.199
<v Speaker 4>requiring all pet dogs, cats, rabbits, and horses in LA

813
00:40:36.280 --> 00:40:39.079
<v Speaker 4>to have a microchip. The Full Council considers it next

814
00:40:39.360 --> 00:40:42.480
<v Speaker 4>in downtown LA. Michael Monks KFI News Lisa.

815
00:40:42.519 --> 00:40:44.280
<v Speaker 1>In southern Kentucky, you're trying to find the person who

816
00:40:44.360 --> 00:40:47.719
<v Speaker 1>shot at least twelve cars on a highway and injured

817
00:40:47.760 --> 00:40:51.360
<v Speaker 1>five people. Investigators say they found an AR fifteen type

818
00:40:51.440 --> 00:40:54.639
<v Speaker 1>rifle they believe was used in the shootings near London, Kentucky,

819
00:40:54.719 --> 00:40:57.639
<v Speaker 1>on Saturday night. Laurel County Sheriff John Root says a

820
00:40:57.679 --> 00:41:01.159
<v Speaker 1>guy named Joseph Couch bought the rifle legally the morning

821
00:41:01.199 --> 00:41:01.920
<v Speaker 1>before the shooting.

822
00:41:02.159 --> 00:41:03.320
<v Speaker 12>You're not a failing or something.

823
00:41:03.360 --> 00:41:03.440
<v Speaker 7>You know.

824
00:41:03.480 --> 00:41:04.559
<v Speaker 3>If you can go in and you fail to fight

825
00:41:04.679 --> 00:41:07.000
<v Speaker 3>for work, anyone can purchase.

826
00:41:06.599 --> 00:41:07.400
<v Speaker 5>The guns, please say.

827
00:41:07.400 --> 00:41:10.599
<v Speaker 1>They also found the suspected shooters car abandoned near a

828
00:41:10.639 --> 00:41:13.719
<v Speaker 1>remote wooded area. They say the shootings on the seventy

829
00:41:13.719 --> 00:41:18.239
<v Speaker 1>five were calculated and planned. Chain restaurants and coffee shops

830
00:41:18.280 --> 00:41:20.000
<v Speaker 1>in New York City are going to have to add

831
00:41:20.199 --> 00:41:23.519
<v Speaker 1>new warning labels to their menus starting next month. The

832
00:41:23.559 --> 00:41:27.639
<v Speaker 1>City's Sweet Truth Act will require restaurants to warn customers

833
00:41:27.639 --> 00:41:30.239
<v Speaker 1>of menu items that contain at least fifty grams of

834
00:41:30.360 --> 00:41:34.159
<v Speaker 1>added sugar. Restaurants that failed to comply will face hundreds

835
00:41:34.199 --> 00:41:36.760
<v Speaker 1>of dollars in fines. Tonight, the Dodgers take on the
