And that's the point to achieve. 35 00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:15.719 We're going today to achieve. Not right now, we're not. 36 00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:19.680 We're not achieving anything right now. I should have probably 37 00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:23.400 what probably what we're doing is killing the two minutes 38 00:02:23.560 --> 00:02:27.639 or whatever that we normally would have had for Michael 39 00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:30.360 Monks to get back into the booth for me, by 40 00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:32.159 the way, to get a beverage, which I have no 41 00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:35.439 beverage because we started early. 42 00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:36.360 Is now killing? 43 00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:38.199 Did I end the previous hour too soon? 44 00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:40.000 No?

I will tell 61 00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:04.199 you who is here today. No need to respond anybody. 62 00:04:04.520 --> 00:04:08.000 Michelle Cube is producing for Anne. Kono is running the board. 63 00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:11.439 The only original member of the Morning crew who is 64 00:04:11.479 --> 00:04:14.520 here today, Michael Monks is in for Amy King. And 65 00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:17.720 that brings us to handle on the news and today's 66 00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:27.759 lead story. The plane, an Azerbaijan Airlines plane crashed yesterday, 67 00:04:27.879 --> 00:04:34.759 Christmas Day after an unusual and several hundred mile long 68 00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:37.279 detour in the wrong direction. 69 00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:40.879 There are apparently holes in. 70 00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:45.480 The fuselage, which is causing Russian military bloggers and some 71 00:04:45.639 --> 00:04:49.600 aviation experts to opine that it may have been accidentally 72 00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:55.079 shot down by Russia. For you see, it went into 73 00:04:55.160 --> 00:05:00.639 an area that Russia has heavily militarized and at the 74 00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:04.759 airport where it was trying to land in an emergency landing. 75 00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:08.439 At the same time that airport was under a drone 76 00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:14.519 attack from Ukraine, and so the theory is Russia was 77 00:05:14.519 --> 00:05:17.839 trying to get rid of these Ukrainian drones. Here was 78 00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:21.120 this other aircraft that really wasn't even supposed to be there, 79 00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:27.439 and down it went. Thirty eight people killed, another twenty 80 00:05:27.519 --> 00:05:32.639 nine injured. And why did it make such a detour? 81 00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:40.079 The working theory is there was some GPS jamming going 82 00:05:40.120 --> 00:05:42.839 on in the airwaves that screwed up its ability to 83 00:05:42.920 --> 00:05:43.879 navigate properly. 84 00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:46.040 This is one of those rare occasions where you have 85 00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:49.319 some survivors of a plane crash in which a lot 86 00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:51.639 of people died. So perhaps we'll get some answers to that. 87 00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:54.800 Later on, we got a story out of La County. 88 00:05:55.240 --> 00:06:00.480 At least eight La County sheriff's deputies basically fired federal 89 00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:05.160 investigation into one deputies beating of a transgender man last year. 90 00:06:05.439 --> 00:06:07.439 The Only Times reports this happened in a seven to 91 00:06:07.439 --> 00:06:11.759 eleven parking lot, and this was two years ago. Deputy 92 00:06:11.839 --> 00:06:15.319 Joseph Benza finally agreed to plead guilty to one felony 93 00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:19.680 civil rights violation in federal court, but in this plea agreement, 94 00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:21.959 he admitted that he lied to the FBI about it, 95 00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:25.720 and he said there were other deputies and sergeants who 96 00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:29.040 helped obstruct the investigation and cover up the misconduct, and 97 00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:33.279 that's what's led to these further dismissals of other folks. Apparently, 98 00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:37.439 this transgender man Wayne flipped off the deputy and sent 99 00:06:37.439 --> 00:06:39.800 the deputy into a rage. The deputy was on a 100 00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:43.759 call for another reason, left that call to chase down 101 00:06:43.800 --> 00:06:46.519 this transgender man because he got flipped off and rough 102 00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:47.120 them up. 103 00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:52.480 And the whole The only relevance of the that it's 104 00:06:52.519 --> 00:06:56.079 a transperson. The only it's in the headline of the story, 105 00:06:56.079 --> 00:07:01.639 which is kind of despicable, because at some point we're 106 00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:06.199 going to have to recognize that people are people, regardless 107 00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:11.000 of any of these categories that we have created. The 108 00:07:11.040 --> 00:07:15.720 only relevance would be that after they beat this guy 109 00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:21.120 up and arrested him and took him to jail, they 110 00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:26.360 required him to show his genitals in order to decide 111 00:07:26.439 --> 00:07:29.399 whether to put him in men's custody or women's custody, 112 00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:35.360 So that would be the only relevant thread here. It 113 00:07:35.399 --> 00:07:40.040 could have been any person of any type flipping off 114 00:07:40.079 --> 00:07:42.839 a cop and the cop chasing them down and then 115 00:07:42.959 --> 00:07:45.399 beating the holy hell out of them, and it all 116 00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:48.240 would have been every bit is wrong not to mention 117 00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:50.360 all the lying and the covering up and the creating 118 00:07:50.399 --> 00:07:53.680 of stories and saying that the guy bit the cop 119 00:07:53.839 --> 00:07:57.519 was biting the cop, which is apparently not true. And 120 00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:00.319 I mean I saw cases like this from time to 121 00:08:00.399 --> 00:08:03.079 time when I was with the FEDS, where some cop 122 00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:07.600 would go over the line, and then instead of just 123 00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:11.560 owning up to it, there's a big conspiracy afoot to 124 00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:15.160 cover it up. But a lot of times you can't 125 00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:20.120 sustain it. And if you're gonna lie, here's my advice 126 00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:24.160 to anyone who wants to lie, not just cops. If 127 00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:27.240 you're gonna lie, you better make damn sure that your 128 00:08:27.399 --> 00:08:32.879 lie is consistent with any objectively knowable facts. Because if 129 00:08:32.919 --> 00:08:35.600 you're gonna say that guy was biting me and biting 130 00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:39.120 me and then none of the reports about it mentioned 131 00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:42.840 that you have any bite marks on you, because you don't, 132 00:08:44.320 --> 00:08:48.320 you're gonna be tripped up. And that's what happened here. 133 00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:52.320 Oh the high surf is back. 134 00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:52.559 Now. 135 00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:55.120 Didn't we get a tiny little break from the high surf? 136 00:08:55.639 --> 00:08:57.919 We did, but now it's back. 137 00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:02.559 The surf sobered up and then it got high again and. 138 00:09:02.519 --> 00:09:05.320 So we're looking at now they're saying, in this case, 139 00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:08.080 there will be strong rip currents, so be careful if 140 00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:12.480 you're going in the water, or don't go in Coastal flooding, Yes, possibly, 141 00:09:12.600 --> 00:09:16.559 but minor. The National Weather Service is describing the flooding, 142 00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:22.519 the potential flooding as minor. And this continues through tomorrow 143 00:09:23.440 --> 00:09:29.720 for Ventura, Santa Barbara, and Los Angeles counties. And I 144 00:09:29.759 --> 00:09:33.600 love this quote from the National Weather Service about safety 145 00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:36.480 because it makes me think of a long lost TLC 146 00:09:36.679 --> 00:09:40.240 song or something like that. Use caution in or near 147 00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:43.559 the water, stay back from the water's edge, and never 148 00:09:43.720 --> 00:09:48.279 turn your back on the ocean. Never turn your back 149 00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:53.840 on the ocean or your heart is gonna get ripped 150 00:09:53.879 --> 00:09:54.840 aided out? 151 00:09:55.399 --> 00:09:56.200 Is that TLC? 152 00:09:58.080 --> 00:09:58.440 Sure? 153 00:09:59.519 --> 00:09:59.840 All right? 154 00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:02.639 Ye, that wasn't bad. That was not bad at all. 155 00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:06.320 But let's emphasize though, the danger here because we have 156 00:10:06.360 --> 00:10:08.399 basically called off the search for a couple of guys 157 00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:12.039 who were fishing around here. They're serious when they say 158 00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:14.200 don't go in the water when it looks like that. 159 00:10:14.279 --> 00:10:16.200 We saw what happened in Santa Cruz with the pier 160 00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:18.399 being ripped to shreds and now this search being called 161 00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:20.639 off for these two guys who went out fishing in it. 162 00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:23.679 It's serious when they say it. 163 00:10:23.840 --> 00:10:25.639 I'm noting a trend and I want to see. I'm 164 00:10:25.639 --> 00:10:27.919 not gonna say anything about it yet because I want 165 00:10:27.919 --> 00:10:29.879 to see if it is actually a trend before I 166 00:10:29.919 --> 00:10:32.039 say anything, because I don't want to be wrong. But 167 00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:35.000 just put a pin and I think I'm noticing a trend. 168 00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:37.960 We'll see maybe later in the show, if I'm right. 169 00:10:38.519 --> 00:10:43.840 A dolphins stampede off data point was quote off the charts. 170 00:10:44.240 --> 00:10:48.440 Yo See Register reports some estimated five thousand long beaked 171 00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:52.679 common dolphins recently raced through the churning waves off data 172 00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:55.480 point captured not only in the memories of a handful 173 00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:58.639 of folks on a rigid inflatable known as the All's Well, 174 00:10:59.120 --> 00:11:05.080 but also footage since shared online. So, according to GIZL Anderson, 175 00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:09.960 who operates Captain Dave's Dolphin and whale watching Safari, data 176 00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:16.039 point has made the dolphins stampede famous. So what causes 177 00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:21.480 dolphins to display stampeding behavior. It's unknown. The burst of 178 00:11:21.519 --> 00:11:27.159 activity as reported here appears to happen spontaneously.

Could you see 227 00:14:10.200 --> 00:14:13.200 the cats of the political leanings of animals, the cats, 228 00:14:13.559 --> 00:14:15.279 out of all the species, would be the one like, 229 00:14:15.480 --> 00:14:18.240 give me my raw meat, give me my raw milk. 230 00:14:19.200 --> 00:14:21.159 You don't tell me what to do? 231 00:14:21.919 --> 00:14:24.639 Uh? I mean, I can see it in the sense 232 00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:28.000 of cats being the ones saying, you are the government, 233 00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:28.600 leave me. 234 00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:31.159 Alone, but cats cannot. 235 00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:35.679 But just like human libertarians, by the way, cats are 236 00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:40.559 stupid as well about their political philosophies. Because let's say 237 00:14:40.559 --> 00:14:43.080 you're a cat and you're a libertarian, and you're. 238 00:14:42.919 --> 00:14:45.080 Saying, leave stay out of my life. 239 00:14:45.440 --> 00:14:48.639 Human who is the stand in for the government in 240 00:14:48.679 --> 00:14:52.440 this analogy? You stay out of my business? Yeah, how 241 00:14:52.440 --> 00:14:53.639 are you getting your food? 242 00:14:53.759 --> 00:14:54.240 Dumb ass? 243 00:14:56.240 --> 00:14:59.399 Mister cat? Now what does this have to do with 244 00:14:59.480 --> 00:15:00.000 human liberty? 245 00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:00.519 Tarians? 246 00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:05.480 The government should only do a national defense. Okay, then 247 00:15:05.840 --> 00:15:11.519 who's paving your road? Dumbass? Who's coming to put the 248 00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:16.200 fire out at your house? Your neighborhood's gonna get together 249 00:15:16.360 --> 00:15:20.320 and hire a private fire department and a and a 250 00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:22.759 private paving company. 251 00:15:23.399 --> 00:15:25.600 I wonder what the political leanings are of those dolphins 252 00:15:25.639 --> 00:15:28.759 that were stampeding nearby here. Do you think they're like, 253 00:15:29.200 --> 00:15:33.039 I bet there's socially liberal common Democrats. 254 00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:38.080 But are upper middle class suburban voters. Oh they're they're 255 00:15:38.080 --> 00:15:42.200 all They're like from Finland. Whatever the political system in 256 00:15:42.240 --> 00:15:44.000 Finland did get it? 257 00:15:44.120 --> 00:15:44.360 Cute? 258 00:15:44.559 --> 00:15:47.080 Cute Michelle, How dare you not last? 259 00:15:47.360 --> 00:15:48.279 Dare you not last? 260 00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:48.600 Laughing? 261 00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:51.759 I just we're talking about dolphins, and I said Finland 262 00:15:51.960 --> 00:15:53.679 and you just sacked there. 263 00:15:53.799 --> 00:15:56.960 Oh and I only just now got it perfect. Oh well, 264 00:15:57.279 --> 00:15:59.759 I'm sorry. I was six grat geography champ, but I 265 00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:02.279 didn't that I didn't get that reference. I apologize for that. 266 00:16:02.519 --> 00:16:04.360 Hey, that's all right, let's do this dog story. But 267 00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:07.240 I'm gonna ask you, I never mind, I'm not asking 268 00:16:07.279 --> 00:16:07.639 you anything. 269 00:16:07.720 --> 00:16:10.639 Do the dog for okay, okay, okay, I'm very nervous 270 00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:13.320 with you today. All right. A man reunited with a 271 00:16:13.360 --> 00:16:16.919 dog for the holidays after eleven years apart. These stories 272 00:16:16.960 --> 00:16:19.799 never get old when you see pets reunited after a 273 00:16:19.879 --> 00:16:23.759 long time away. This is reported by Fox eleven. As 274 00:16:23.799 --> 00:16:26.279 he watches his dog being brought down the hallway of 275 00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:31.000 the Seaaca Animal Care and Control Center, Tito Barossio says, 276 00:16:31.519 --> 00:16:33.879 I never thought I'd see this day. The day he 277 00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:38.039 and Goyle were reunited a dog Tito's wife gave him 278 00:16:38.039 --> 00:16:39.879 for a birthday present when the dog was just a 279 00:16:39.919 --> 00:16:42.679 pop just eight weeks old. Barosio says, the dog has 280 00:16:42.679 --> 00:16:46.360 been gone eleven years and two months, and he's missed 281 00:16:46.399 --> 00:16:49.879 him a lot. Now, this dog is fourteen limps, may 282 00:16:49.919 --> 00:16:53.519 have arthritis and doesn't yet seem to recognize Tito and 283 00:16:53.559 --> 00:16:56.799 actually snaps at him or anyone who gets close. Until 284 00:16:56.840 --> 00:16:59.320 Tito can get him to a vet, he won't know 285 00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:03.399 what his health might be like. All right, what's poor 286 00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:05.559 little guy? This dog is clearly a Republican. 287 00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:09.519 The saddest part of this story is he just got 288 00:17:09.519 --> 00:17:11.359 this dog, and he was sitting out at a pub 289 00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:13.880 on a patio and two girls were like looking at 290 00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:15.640 the dog and playing with the dog, and then he 291 00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:18.480 turned around, he turned away, and then he turned around 292 00:17:18.759 --> 00:17:20.160 and they had taken off with the dog. 293 00:17:20.960 --> 00:17:22.559 And it took eleven years to get them out. 294 00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:27.279 Man, that's so crazy. So yeah, but there's always a bond. 295 00:17:27.319 --> 00:17:30.400 I hope they can rekindle that bond. It's always interesting 296 00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:33.599 to see when animals who are separated from their owners, 297 00:17:33.720 --> 00:17:35.079 or you know a lot of those. I mean, you 298 00:17:35.079 --> 00:17:36.920 can't help but cry every time you see a soldier 299 00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:40.240 coming home after so many months or maybe even years abroad, 300 00:17:40.359 --> 00:17:43.400 and the dog just it takes a moment and then 301 00:17:43.440 --> 00:17:46.680 they sniff you and then it's your You're back in 302 00:17:46.759 --> 00:17:49.119 love all over again. It's always I'm tearing up a 303 00:17:49.160 --> 00:17:51.039 little bit just thinking about those videos they get. I'm 304 00:17:51.079 --> 00:17:53.920 a sucker for them every time they come across the algorithm. 305 00:17:54.240 --> 00:17:56.599 Yeah, let me, let me put in something that's one 306 00:17:56.680 --> 00:17:59.079 hundred percent positive and heartwarming. 307 00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:00.880 Video going around. 308 00:18:00.880 --> 00:18:02.440 It's been going around for a while. It's some guy 309 00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:04.960 who I don't know how long he was away from 310 00:18:05.039 --> 00:18:07.400 his dog. I don't know that it was a like years, 311 00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:12.160 but he used to be he was very heavy and 312 00:18:12.200 --> 00:18:14.799 he lost a ton of weight and now he's not heavy. 313 00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:15.759 He's not heavy at all. 314 00:18:16.880 --> 00:18:19.519 So here comes the dog and the dog's looking at him, 315 00:18:19.559 --> 00:18:23.880 does not recognize him by looking at him, barking at him, 316 00:18:24.279 --> 00:18:29.000 is barking. But finally the dog catches the whiff of 317 00:18:29.039 --> 00:18:30.480 his smell, and then it's like. 318 00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:31.759 Boom, you're my guy. 319 00:18:31.960 --> 00:18:35.039 I don't know what happened to half your body, but 320 00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:38.440 you're my guy. That was And that's the thing is 321 00:18:38.519 --> 00:18:43.400 apparently the smell. Kids should learn this I know, I'm 322 00:18:43.440 --> 00:18:48.640 going along. I don't care. And Michelle knows why kids 323 00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:50.599 should learn this because there are all the videos of 324 00:18:50.640 --> 00:18:53.160 the dog reunions, which are very nice. Then you have 325 00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:55.720 this other thing that's a very common video, and it's 326 00:18:55.759 --> 00:19:00.359 when dad shaves his beard and then the kid are 327 00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:05.039 horrified and terrified and crying. But if kids were smart 328 00:19:05.119 --> 00:19:08.599 like dogs, they would still know it smells like dad 329 00:19:10.039 --> 00:19:14.119 and they wouldn't have to be so upset. So what 330 00:19:14.200 --> 00:19:19.440 have we learned? Dogs are smarter than kids. That's two 331 00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:24.880 important things you've learned from me today. A mystery. After 332 00:19:24.960 --> 00:19:30.000 a flight from Chicago landed in Maui, the United Airlines 333 00:19:30.079 --> 00:19:33.359 crew found a body in the wheel well of one 334 00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:37.200 of the landing gears. Needless to say, the Airlines working 335 00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:40.799 with law enforcement to investigate the situation. The only thing 336 00:19:40.839 --> 00:19:44.359 we know for sure is that this wheel well is 337 00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:49.400 only accessible from outside of the aircraft, So nobody who 338 00:19:49.480 --> 00:19:54.039 was inside the plane somehow ended up in the wheel well. 339 00:19:54.799 --> 00:19:57.599 That's all they know. We don't have any information on 340 00:19:57.640 --> 00:20:00.559 who it is. Was it an employee of the airport, 341 00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:06.039 was it some rando? And what condition put on your 342 00:20:06.039 --> 00:20:09.880 true crime hats? You true crime lovers? What condition was. 343 00:20:09.799 --> 00:20:12.559 The body in Now, there have been people who have 344 00:20:12.680 --> 00:20:15.839 survived that, right, because I can't imagine how cold it 345 00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:16.440 must get. 346 00:20:16.839 --> 00:20:19.000 We reported yesterday that it had been done before, a 347 00:20:19.000 --> 00:20:22.759 guy from California survived that very route, apparently across the 348 00:20:22.759 --> 00:20:25.279 ocean to Hawaii. But the other thing that was included 349 00:20:25.279 --> 00:20:28.359 in the reports when this story broke yesterday was exactly 350 00:20:28.440 --> 00:20:30.960 what you just noted, Michelle, that it gets pretty cold, 351 00:20:31.000 --> 00:20:34.599 a cold that we probably can't describe because we've never felt, 352 00:20:34.680 --> 00:20:36.839 especially here in California. But I read that when you 353 00:20:36.880 --> 00:20:39.359 get up to the heights that this plane would have been, 354 00:20:40.079 --> 00:20:43.039 it can be minus fifty degrees in the area of 355 00:20:43.119 --> 00:20:47.720 the plane where that body was found, So pretty pretty cold. 356 00:20:47.799 --> 00:20:50.920 But I imagine that would preserve the condition of the body, 357 00:20:50.920 --> 00:20:54.559 to answer your questions, so probably not too decomposed, but still, 358 00:20:55.079 --> 00:20:58.640 what a terrible thing. All right, So yesterday was Christmas, 359 00:20:58.680 --> 00:21:03.400 and yesterday was the start of Hanka, but today begins Kwansa. 360 00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:05.240 And I think a lot of people may have an 361 00:21:05.279 --> 00:21:07.359 image in their mind of what it is, but we're 362 00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:09.519 gonna spell it out for you just in case you 363 00:21:09.559 --> 00:21:12.240 don't know. It is a non religious seven day long 364 00:21:12.519 --> 00:21:17.160 holiday that celebrates African and African American history and culture. 365 00:21:17.680 --> 00:21:21.759 According to NBC four Kwansa is celebrated between December twenty 366 00:21:21.759 --> 00:21:25.640 six and January one every year.
