Speaker 5: Oh.
Speaker 2: I have an update on South Korea for everybody who's
Speaker 2: paying attention to see which which side's going to win
Speaker 2: on this. So I told you that South Korea's president
Speaker 2: Yunsok yule declared an emergency martial law because he was
Speaker 2: afraid that communists and North Korean sympathizers were going to
Speaker 2: take over parliament.
Speaker 1: I thought it was his own party that was closing
Speaker 1: in on him.
Speaker 2: Well here's the thing now, he says, I declare martial
Speaker 2: law in order to eradicate the shameless pro North Korea
Speaker 2: anti state forces. A few hours after that, the National Assembly.
Speaker 2: Their legislature said he's cuckoo pants. Said he's cuckoo pants, right,
Speaker 2: even though that's not how you pronounce his name. They
Speaker 2: said they want an immediate lift of the immediate emergency
Speaker 2: martial law.
Speaker 1: Crazy and he was barring his own people from coming
Speaker 1: back to the parliament. It was a total mess.
Speaker 2: So under the South Korean constitution, martial law must be lifted.
Speaker 2: But we don't know what he's going to do because
Speaker 2: it's the middle of the night in South Korea, so
Speaker 2: we'll keep an eye on that.
Speaker 4: Oh it's a twinkie.
Speaker 2: I also have some good news. Are ten o'clock totals
Speaker 2: already at ten o'clock this morning. Thanks to your generosity,
Speaker 2: Kfi's Pastathon has raised for Katerina's Club one hundred and
Speaker 2: forty three thousand.
Speaker 3: Six Wow.
Speaker 6: That's a that's a big jump from nine and just
Speaker 6: shy of six thousand, nine hundred pounds of pasta and sauce.
Speaker 2: That is is well over three tons of pasta and
Speaker 2: sauce that have already been raised as the result of
Speaker 2: your generosity on this Giving Tuesday.
Speaker 1: I know we were just running out of time, but
Speaker 1: briefly I wanted to bring this to your attention, because
Speaker 1: I know that you've had bats in your house, Yes,
Speaker 1: multiple couple times. A few times. A bat has flown
Speaker 1: into a woman's classroom in Fresno. An art teacher at
Speaker 1: a middle school bitten her and she has died. It
Speaker 1: was a rabid bat, So you need to be careful.
Speaker 1: I don't fly into your house. I got a set
Speaker 1: the screen for the door so they don't come in.
Speaker 4: How many years were you in that house with no
Speaker 4: screen on that door?
Speaker 1: Six five five?
Speaker 2: So I only had two bats that came in that
Speaker 2: I don't have bats the first bat, and the bat.
Speaker 3: Never bit me, I don't think.
Speaker 1: So you could have rav's right now.
Speaker 3: I could.
Speaker 2: I probably would have felt the effects of it long
Speaker 2: before that, following at the mouth something like that. All right,
Speaker 2: we're gonna be out here today, live until one o'clock
Speaker 2: for our show.
Speaker 1: Yes, I just have common signs that an animal has rabies, okay,
Speaker 1: a bat that can't fly all right, a wild animal
Speaker 1: that seems unusually tame okay. These are all scary signs
Speaker 1: because they seem so passive.
Speaker 3: Right, animals are so cute? Yeah, No, an animal.
Speaker 1: Out during the day that's usually active only at night,
Speaker 1: a pet that has trouble walking, that's so pet cemetery, right.
Speaker 1: Just don't touch the wild animals.
Speaker 2: I think that's that's a good, good, helpful hint. Today
Speaker 2: on Giving Tuesday, don't help the crippled animals.
Speaker 1: Are at Anaheim White House Restaurant for our annual pastathon.
Speaker 1: This is all about feeding hungry kids in southern California.
Speaker 1: Of course, because of Katerina's Club and your generosity, Chef
Speaker 1: Bruno is able to provide more than twenty five thousand
Speaker 1: meals every week to kids in needs. So this is
Speaker 1: a big day for the entire year. If you can
Speaker 1: come by, donate pasta, sauce, money, whatever. We've got auction
Speaker 1: items on the website KFI AM six forty dot com
Speaker 1: slash Pastathon. You can check those out. Our auction item
Speaker 1: is going to the Dodger game and the suite all
Speaker 1: the Dodger dogs you can eat. You've put down three
Speaker 1: or four sometimes yeah before the third inning, and then
Speaker 1: you leave with a Dodger dog sticking.
Speaker 3: Out of your pocket, one in each back pocket.
Speaker 1: Yeah good.
Speaker 3: Look, Well I.
Speaker 2: Figured you know, if I need to bribe my way
Speaker 2: to get out quicker, I can offer them a semi
Speaker 2: warm Dodger dog that's been in my back pocket. There
Speaker 2: are a couple of stories that are going on that
Speaker 2: we're keeping our eyes on. In Manhattan, for example, a
Speaker 2: jury is to set to decide whether Daniel Penny, the
Speaker 2: guy who choked a homeless man in a subway car
Speaker 2: last year, would be guilty of manslaughter. The prosecutors are
Speaker 2: finishing their closing arguments today. When we get into swamp Watch,
Speaker 2: just a shortened version of swamp Watch. Next hour, we'll
Speaker 2: talk about President elect Trump's demand that hostages be released
Speaker 2: before his inauguration or there will be hell to pay.
Speaker 2: That was the comment that came in. And then in
Speaker 2: La County we get a new DA today. Thank the
Speaker 2: Lord Jesus, Nathan Hofkman is going to be sworn in
Speaker 2: this morning on the front steps of the Hall of Justice.
Speaker 2: And not that we have to point this out, but
Speaker 2: he stomped George gascon uh sixty.
Speaker 1: Turns out law and order is essential for a civilized society.
Speaker 2: Well, let's not get crazy about civilized society.
Speaker 1: The criminals, you know, they keep doing the criminal stuff
Speaker 1: if you don't do anything other than kiss them and
Speaker 1: tickle them and take their picture.
Speaker 2: One of the ways that you can help out today
Speaker 2: at our postathon is you go into a wild Fork
Speaker 2: Foods location in Costa Mesa, Mission Viejo, Laguna de gall
Speaker 2: Or huntingson Beach, do your regular shopping.
Speaker 3: Say KFI postathon.
Speaker 2: At checkout, fifteen percent of your total is going to
Speaker 2: be donated to the postathon. You can plan your meal
Speaker 2: when you go to Wildforkfoods dot com and by the way.
Speaker 1: High highest quality meat and seafood at crazy low prices.
Speaker 2: Game poultry, veal, rabbit, goat bison, elm venison, alligator, ostrich
Speaker 2: and then all of your normals, the lambs and the
Speaker 2: beefs and the chickens and turkeys and things like that.
Speaker 1: Patrick Shinagawa has the best job in the world manager.
Speaker 5: It's fun because there's over seven hundred different products and wow,
Speaker 5: we can cram it into a small place because it's
Speaker 5: all frozen, right. And this is even better because people
Speaker 5: can come and shop and fifteen percent of the sales
Speaker 5: go to the pastaton.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really incredible. So explain who's your regular customer.
Speaker 2: People that come in and they're gonna they're gonna store
Speaker 2: their meat for a while. They want to eat it fresh?
Speaker 5: What's we have foodies, we have grill enthusiasts, families, budget shoppers.
Speaker 5: Everybody comes, well, people that know about us.
Speaker 3: Trying to get it out there.
Speaker 4: What is your favorite meat?
Speaker 1: Patrick? I ask everyone this.
Speaker 2: Okay, well, she just to be clear, she's gonna judge
Speaker 2: you on your answer.
Speaker 1: It in a deli for about six years, so meats
Speaker 1: are near and dear to my heart.
Speaker 5: Well, my favorite beef would have to be a hangar steak,
Speaker 5: and then the flat iron is a close second.
Speaker 3: It's delicious, yes, Now how when you cook it? When
Speaker 3: you do it, do.
Speaker 2: You do you mess it up with a bunch of
Speaker 2: extra stuff or you just the salt and pepper guy.
Speaker 5: And it depends on the mood.
Speaker 3: Okay, I do both, Yeah for sure. Because it's versatile,
Speaker 3: you you could.
Speaker 5: Have it any way you want.
Speaker 1: It's like butter.
Speaker 3: You can just eat it.
Speaker 1: Sometimes it's good cold, sometimes it's good warm.
Speaker 2: Just stab it with a fork and just gnaw on
Speaker 2: it like it's a popsicle.
Speaker 1: Right, have you had the alligator?
Speaker 7: I have?
Speaker 5: And you know, if you want something breaded and fried
Speaker 5: and delicious, that's what you should.
Speaker 2: The two magic words breaded and fried. You guys havemultiple
Speaker 2: locations and I we just drove My wife and I
Speaker 2: just drove by one last night way up in North
Speaker 2: La County, so we were excited about the idea. We
Speaker 2: haven't been in there yet. When someone goes in there
Speaker 2: for the first time, what do you think they should
Speaker 2: should ask?
Speaker 3: They should look for? What's your what's your suggestion?
Speaker 5: I think that people should just take their time and
Speaker 5: look around, because over seven hundred products, if you go
Speaker 5: too fast and just zero in on what you want,
Speaker 5: you might miss something that you didn't know that you wanted.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: And then you guys also have some of the quick
Speaker 2: and easy options, which are the appetizers, some of these
Speaker 2: ready meals and things like that.
Speaker 5: Sure, all kinds of convenience meals from chicken pop pie
Speaker 5: to a frozen pizza, pastas, dessert spreads.
Speaker 1: So something for everybody. Everyone's going to be fine. What
Speaker 1: they're looking for.
Speaker 3: Where do you source all this? All the meat from animals?
Speaker 2: Well, that's probably a good good play. No lab grown
Speaker 2: anything in there. That's not where we're looking.
Speaker 7: Me.
Speaker 1: I get overwhelmed the places like that. I was in
Speaker 1: Bishop Mahogany Smoked Meats is the place and I walk
Speaker 1: in and I was just I was overwhelmed with all
Speaker 1: the different meat. And do you have people that walk
Speaker 1: in and they're just like, oh my gosh, I've reached
Speaker 1: the mecca.
Speaker 5: Right, Well, we don't want that to happen. So just
Speaker 5: ask for any of us and we'll we'll give you
Speaker 5: a personal tour.
Speaker 2: And then if somebody comes up with a slab of
Speaker 2: meat that they've never had before, whether it's a venison
Speaker 2: or alligator like we were talking about, or even rabbit,
Speaker 2: and you guys have tips and tricks on how to
Speaker 2: cook it perfectly correct.
Speaker 5: Yes, all of our associates are fully trained. They know
Speaker 5: all about the meats.
Speaker 1: This website is incredible.
Speaker 3: The website is incredibly well done.

Speaker 3: It is it is. It is a scene. It is
Speaker 3: a it is a scene something. But we've never been
Speaker 3: kicked out. Maybe that's what we try for this year.
Speaker 4: There there was a questionable time.
Speaker 2: We didn't get kicked out. We got escorted. I mean
Speaker 2: that was and that was very different. It was very
Speaker 2: amiable at that point.
Speaker 1: It was kind of like when we got escorted out
Speaker 1: of the casino in Cleveland because Ray Lowez kicked the
Speaker 1: penny slot machine the good old days. John co hosting
Speaker 1: with John. That's up to four thousand dollars, four thousand
Speaker 1: and one. What now, what happens if it's like a
Speaker 1: crazy person, you know what I mean? And then John's
Speaker 1: there for three hours trapped in this padded room.
Speaker 3: No, I was gonna say.
Speaker 2: I think they kind of cancel each other out at
Speaker 2: that point. That's the two kinds of crazy. They can't
Speaker 2: bat Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1: I forgot forgot who we're dealing with, Ted Barnes, Tom
Speaker 1: George from Thorst and Buick GMC, always great partners. This
Speaker 1: is where the Kfi family goes to buy vehicles because
Speaker 1: they make us great deals. It's where I bought my truck.
Speaker 1: Best experience I've ever had. In fact, I put off
Speaker 1: buying a vehicle for a long time because I was
Speaker 1: dreading going to a dealership, and these guys made all
Speaker 1: of that go away. Just a real family atmosphere there
Speaker 1: at Thorston BOGMC. It's right off the two ten there
Speaker 1: in Pasadena, and they've all not only partnered up with
Speaker 1: us to give you guys all a great deal, but
Speaker 1: they have become major partners with the pastathon and this
Speaker 1: year you can see the beautiful electric GMC truck. I
Speaker 1: don't know anything more about it than that, but it
Speaker 1: is gorgeous. Instead of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3: Sierra right, grab that, hit that little white button and
Speaker 3: make it red. Oh yeah, there you go, you go.
Speaker 8: Came out in twenty twenty four. This is a new
Speaker 8: twenty twenty five. It's got like four hundred miles of range.
Speaker 8: It's it's the nicest car I've ever driven, for sure.
Speaker 8: Everybody I talked to you says it's it's really it's incredible.
Speaker 1: It's luxury. It's just complete luxury in there.
Speaker 2: You guys have been a drop off location for us
Speaker 2: this year, which has been great. And the back of
Speaker 2: that truck is full of pasta and sauce, So thank
Speaker 2: you all for that.
Speaker 3: When you I mean as a business.
Speaker 2: Outside of car dealership, outside of GMC specifically, but when
Speaker 2: you guys get involved in situations like this, charitable events
Speaker 2: like this, how do you make the decision about which
Speaker 2: ones they get involved with?
Speaker 7: Great question. I've been listening to KFI for years and
Speaker 7: obviously listened to the show, and then I met Shannon
Speaker 7: when you bought the car from us, and you know,
Speaker 7: you got to get involved with something, and I just thought,
Speaker 7: what better way than to partner up with KFI and
Speaker 7: something I like to listen to and I guess that's
Speaker 7: how I made the decisions.
Speaker 3: Well, we greatly appreciated that.
Speaker 1: It feels good too. I mean I was talking, we
Speaker 1: were talking to Smart and Final earlier, Tina, and it's
Speaker 1: a great business model to get involved with charity, you know.
Speaker 1: It just the overall feel probably in the showroom there,
Speaker 1: with people dropping stuff off and with staff and everything.
Speaker 1: It's just it feels good, especially around the holidays, especially.
Speaker 7: Around the holidays, and the employees got involved, so and
Speaker 7: they're bringing stuff and so it was it's just really cool.
Speaker 1: That's very cool. You shall have a competition next year
Speaker 1: to see, yeah, to see who brings them the most.
Speaker 1: I love a competition, you know.
Speaker 2: Well, you guys, I mean, you guys have been great
Speaker 2: partners of the show as well. Tell us about what
Speaker 2: it is that's different about Thorson in terms of the
Speaker 2: there's dealerships.
Speaker 3: On every corner. But why why would people go to
Speaker 3: Thorston as supposed to other places.
Speaker 7: Well, we're still family owned. What's my business now? But
Speaker 7: been there for thirty four years so just a little while.
Speaker 7: Got employees have been there even before we bought the store,
Speaker 7: over forty years. Wow, So I got a handful of
Speaker 7: employees that have been there for well over twenty five
Speaker 7: so it just it's a nice family asphere, and that's
Speaker 7: one of the reasons people like to work there too,
Speaker 7: is that just they feel like family and not just
Speaker 7: a number and part of the corporate you know, corporate
Speaker 7: scene or anything. So you know they can come in
Speaker 7: go see the boss anytime and went on there.
Speaker 2: What they call you on your cell phone when you're
Speaker 2: not prom is that there's always that.
Speaker 1: Anything you want to tell us about new vehicles, new stock,
Speaker 1: get out the twenty twenty four still or what's the deal?
Speaker 4: I don't even know how to speak car.
Speaker 1: So I'm just stumbling over every you have.
Speaker 3: Any ones with four wheels now or most four? That's
Speaker 3: so cool.
Speaker 8: Yeah, we're at the end of the year, so the
Speaker 8: deals are as good as they've been all year. And uh,
Speaker 8: we're making deals. We got a lot of inventory. During COVID,
Speaker 8: a lot of the inventory was gone, so it's all back.

Speaker 3: How many mean? How many?
Speaker 1: Yell a lot?
Speaker 3: We send them home.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's funny because his wife sent him out of
Speaker 1: the house this morning, right, and if you send it back,
Speaker 1: it's like a fight between you and the wife.
Speaker 3: Right, that's it.
Speaker 2: The freeway wins, exactly, the freeway. Well, you can come
Speaker 2: on out and check out that twenty twenty five gmcc
