WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.960 --> 00:00:04.839
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM

2
00:00:04.879 --> 00:00:07.240
<v Speaker 1>six forty. Oh.

3
00:00:07.320 --> 00:00:10.720
<v Speaker 2>Yes, it is a Friday, February twenty. First, it's a

4
00:00:10.759 --> 00:00:14.039
<v Speaker 2>Foody Friday at A twenty. We do it for Foody

5
00:00:14.119 --> 00:00:17.879
<v Speaker 2>Friday with Neil and I have a very deep, deep

6
00:00:18.039 --> 00:00:21.359
<v Speaker 2>question that I have for Neil starting the segment. Not

7
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:22.960
<v Speaker 2>going to share it with you. This is a tease,

8
00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:26.800
<v Speaker 2>see to get you to listen. It is a question

9
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:32.320
<v Speaker 2>of great import. Also, looking at some of the news,

10
00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:36.600
<v Speaker 2>the Senate yesterday confirmed Cash Patel is FBI director. Of

11
00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:40.159
<v Speaker 2>course they did, because it really doesn't matter if Cash

12
00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:44.399
<v Speaker 2>Pattel is a lunatic and hates the FBI more so

13
00:00:44.479 --> 00:00:47.840
<v Speaker 2>than any FBI director that I can ever remember. But

14
00:00:48.439 --> 00:00:53.880
<v Speaker 2>for example, he wants to clean out closed down FBI headquarters.

15
00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:59.000
<v Speaker 2>That's what he said in Washington, d C. And that

16
00:00:59.119 --> 00:00:59.359
<v Speaker 2>is the.

17
00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:05.079
<v Speaker 3>Hoover Building, right you bet, j Edgar Hoover.

18
00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:07.840
<v Speaker 2>Building, and he wants to change it to what is

19
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:11.239
<v Speaker 2>historically correct, and that's the j Edgar transvestite building.

20
00:01:12.239 --> 00:01:16.000
<v Speaker 3>A little bit of historical background for you. So let

21
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:17.560
<v Speaker 3>me move to matter of fact. Let me move the

22
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:19.000
<v Speaker 3>administration on what's going on.

23
00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:24.159
<v Speaker 2>The response to Trump being elected I've never seen anything

24
00:01:24.239 --> 00:01:26.680
<v Speaker 2>like in all of the years that I've been looking

25
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:31.439
<v Speaker 2>at presidential elections. And one of the responses and people

26
00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:35.120
<v Speaker 2>are I mean, people are more engaged in what this

27
00:01:35.760 --> 00:01:38.319
<v Speaker 2>election is about on both sides.

28
00:01:39.319 --> 00:01:42.560
<v Speaker 3>And you have to only look around and not live under.

29
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:45.400
<v Speaker 2>A rock to realize that the people that hate him

30
00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:49.719
<v Speaker 2>really hate him, that people that love him really love him.

31
00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:55.319
<v Speaker 2>And one of the offshoots, one of the chapters of

32
00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:57.519
<v Speaker 2>all of this is a number of people who say

33
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:01.040
<v Speaker 2>they are leaving the United States because of Trump and

34
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:04.280
<v Speaker 2>are actually leaving now. The reality is a lot of

35
00:02:04.319 --> 00:02:08.240
<v Speaker 2>celebrities say they are leaving. They said they're leaving the

36
00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:11.919
<v Speaker 2>first time around, and they're now saying they leave. They're

37
00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:15.000
<v Speaker 2>lead definitely leaving this time around. A few have left.

38
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:19.759
<v Speaker 2>Eva Longoria has left, a few others have bailed out.

39
00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:21.960
<v Speaker 2>But for the most part, everybody says I'm leaving, I'm leaving,

40
00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:24.599
<v Speaker 2>I'm leaving. Don't but let me tell you what is

41
00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:27.000
<v Speaker 2>going on, And that doesn't matter those celebrities. Doesn't matter

42
00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:31.599
<v Speaker 2>if some film star leaves, Okay, fine, great, now, let

43
00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:36.879
<v Speaker 2>me tell you what is happening. February eighth, the German

44
00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:41.360
<v Speaker 2>news magazine Dershpiegel very well regarded report of the max

45
00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:46.000
<v Speaker 2>Planck Society, one of the world's top scientific research institution,

46
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:51.080
<v Speaker 2>is experiencing a major uptick in application from American scientists,

47
00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:56.360
<v Speaker 2>a brain drain. The president of the Society regards the

48
00:02:56.439 --> 00:02:58.759
<v Speaker 2>US as a quote talent new talent pool.

49
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:00.199
<v Speaker 3>Time.

50
00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:03.439
<v Speaker 2>When the Trump administration is cutting billions and funding, for example,

51
00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:08.800
<v Speaker 2>to the National Institutes of Help, scientists are leaving scientists

52
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:14.719
<v Speaker 2>who either work for the government or work for institutions

53
00:03:14.759 --> 00:03:20.039
<v Speaker 2>that are funded in grants by the government. That is

54
00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:22.960
<v Speaker 2>a problem, because that is a real brain drain. Now

55
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:25.400
<v Speaker 2>is that happening. Well, at this point, all we have

56
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:30.759
<v Speaker 2>is a huge uptick of applications and inquiries. By the way,

57
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:34.240
<v Speaker 2>the max Planck Society, here's a bit of historical irony

58
00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:38.319
<v Speaker 2>for you. The max Planck Society has been around in

59
00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:42.719
<v Speaker 2>Germany for well over one hundred years, if not earlier,

60
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:49.120
<v Speaker 2>and it was from the max Planck Society that still

61
00:03:49.159 --> 00:03:55.439
<v Speaker 2>existed in the Third Reich under Nazism, that German scientists

62
00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:59.080
<v Speaker 2>left Germany to come to the United States, including Albert Einstein.

63
00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:03.719
<v Speaker 2>You know that the majority of scientists who created the

64
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:09.360
<v Speaker 2>atomic bomb were German scientists who had come because of emigration.

65
00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:12.960
<v Speaker 3>They had to get the hell out. Now their lives

66
00:04:12.960 --> 00:04:13.560
<v Speaker 3>were at stake.

67
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:16.920
<v Speaker 2>Here, of course, lives are not at stake, but you're

68
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:23.959
<v Speaker 2>also seeing people searching for terms like dual citizenship. You

69
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:29.079
<v Speaker 2>had significant spikes on election day in inauguration day. And

70
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:32.680
<v Speaker 2>let me tell you what's going on personally. I am

71
00:04:32.720 --> 00:04:36.680
<v Speaker 2>applying for citizenship for Poland. Now does that mean I'm

72
00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:37.639
<v Speaker 2>leaving the United States?

73
00:04:37.639 --> 00:04:37.759
<v Speaker 3>Now?

74
00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:39.920
<v Speaker 2>I've always wanted to live in Italy for several months

75
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:43.040
<v Speaker 2>a year, of which I'm going to do. But I

76
00:04:43.079 --> 00:04:45.720
<v Speaker 2>am going to be a Polish citizen. I'm going to

77
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:47.720
<v Speaker 2>be the butt of every poll out joke you've ever heard.

78
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:50.319
<v Speaker 3>In your life.

79
00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:54.240
<v Speaker 2>Because I want a EU passport so I can zip

80
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:56.079
<v Speaker 2>and live wherever I want over in Europe. I don't

81
00:04:56.079 --> 00:04:59.279
<v Speaker 2>have to worry about American visus because Americans are not

82
00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:02.439
<v Speaker 2>going to do well over, not for a while. And

83
00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:05.600
<v Speaker 2>so if I have a European passport, of which Poland

84
00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:07.319
<v Speaker 2>is a member of the U, I'm home.

85
00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:09.360
<v Speaker 3>Free American passports.

86
00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:12.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't know right now, you know it's it's gonna

87
00:05:12.279 --> 00:05:15.639
<v Speaker 2>be rough, uh for those of us who have one,

88
00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:18.360
<v Speaker 2>and I probably matter of fact, I'm gonna probably use

89
00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:22.839
<v Speaker 2>my Brazilian passport when I travel around, even though there

90
00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:26.920
<v Speaker 2>are visa requirements. I think it's just just different Americans.

91
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:30.639
<v Speaker 2>You go to France, not so much anymore, but the

92
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:32.240
<v Speaker 2>French used to hate Americans.

93
00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:36.560
<v Speaker 3>There's still a little bit of disdain. So it's it's

94
00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:39.120
<v Speaker 3>a different world. It is.

95
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:47.720
<v Speaker 2>I'll talk to you from Italy. Aliva, derci baby, Okay,

96
00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:48.199
<v Speaker 2>maybe not?

97
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:49.279
<v Speaker 3>All right?

98
00:05:49.519 --> 00:05:53.959
<v Speaker 2>It is time for Foody Friday with Neil Sabedra and

99
00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:59.120
<v Speaker 2>me coming up right after this segment. It's asked handle anything,

100
00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:02.519
<v Speaker 2>which is always fine, all right, Neil, Yes, we do

101
00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:06.680
<v Speaker 2>Foody Friday. I have a very deep philosophical question. Oh boy,

102
00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:11.120
<v Speaker 2>since birds are killing us now right, well, it's or

103
00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:15.480
<v Speaker 2>we're we're on pandemic. Yeah yeah, So what's going to

104
00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:18.399
<v Speaker 2>kill us first? The chicken or the egg?

105
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh boy, that's what you want to lead with. Oh,

106
00:06:25.959 --> 00:06:30.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I don't know. I do know that

107
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:32.639
<v Speaker 1>one of the questions that I've been asked a lot

108
00:06:32.800 --> 00:06:36.879
<v Speaker 1>lately is how come egg prices are going up? One

109
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:39.439
<v Speaker 1>of the reasons is the Avian flu. The second is

110
00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:44.399
<v Speaker 1>just you know, economic inflation right now, and that's where

111
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:48.000
<v Speaker 1>we are. But the the avian flu has been a

112
00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:50.240
<v Speaker 1>huge part of it. You know that they have to

113
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:58.079
<v Speaker 1>proactively kill a lot of egg laying hens because of

114
00:06:58.600 --> 00:07:02.560
<v Speaker 1>concern about the avian So if one gets it, then

115
00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:05.839
<v Speaker 1>to protect other parts of the flock, they actually have

116
00:07:05.879 --> 00:07:06.480
<v Speaker 1>to destroy it.

117
00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:09.720
<v Speaker 2>Going back to my joke, which turns only out to

118
00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:12.959
<v Speaker 2>be half a joke, is actually yes.

119
00:07:13.079 --> 00:07:14.360
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes a quarter of a joke.

120
00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:19.959
<v Speaker 2>You would think that because of the culling of the flocks,

121
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:21.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean the destruction of.

122
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:24.279
<v Speaker 3>Entire flocks, millions, millions, Why.

123
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:27.839
<v Speaker 2>Aren't the the chickens that are used, you know, the

124
00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:32.399
<v Speaker 2>cooking chickens, eating chickens, Why aren't they affected like the eggs?

125
00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:35.560
<v Speaker 1>Okay, there are two types of chickens. So the hens

126
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:39.680
<v Speaker 1>that lay the eggs are egg laying hens. The other

127
00:07:39.879 --> 00:07:43.040
<v Speaker 1>chickens that we eat or you're going to get your

128
00:07:43.079 --> 00:07:46.160
<v Speaker 1>rotisserie chicken, and those prices aren't going through the roof

129
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:51.279
<v Speaker 1>or anything. They are roasters. They're two different chickens. And

130
00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:54.399
<v Speaker 1>not only are they two different chickens, but they are

131
00:07:55.120 --> 00:08:00.399
<v Speaker 1>raised differently as well. So the hen laying or the

132
00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:04.319
<v Speaker 1>egg laying hens tend to be in migrant they're in

133
00:08:04.439 --> 00:08:08.920
<v Speaker 1>tighter quarters, they're older because you're using them for longer.

134
00:08:08.920 --> 00:08:11.519
<v Speaker 1>You're not killing them for meat. Now you're killing off

135
00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:14.959
<v Speaker 1>the roaster chickens at a young age six eight weeks

136
00:08:14.959 --> 00:08:20.000
<v Speaker 1>whatever it is, and so they're not living long enough

137
00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:23.120
<v Speaker 1>to often catch this. Plus they're not in the migratory

138
00:08:23.240 --> 00:08:28.240
<v Speaker 1>paths of certain birds that are carrying the disease over,

139
00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:31.560
<v Speaker 1>so it's not hitting them. It hits them a little bit,

140
00:08:31.920 --> 00:08:34.399
<v Speaker 1>but it doesn't hit them to the degree, so it's

141
00:08:34.440 --> 00:08:37.120
<v Speaker 1>not passed along to us in any way, shape or form,

142
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:40.679
<v Speaker 1>because they're not being destroyed the same way. So you

143
00:08:40.759 --> 00:08:43.399
<v Speaker 1>can still go out and get chicken or you know,

144
00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:45.360
<v Speaker 1>we had the Super Bowl, people were going out get

145
00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:50.279
<v Speaker 1>chicken wings. Totally different situation. The birds that the hens

146
00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:54.320
<v Speaker 1>that are laying the eggs are around much longer. They're

147
00:08:54.360 --> 00:09:00.320
<v Speaker 1>in different quarters and they come across other birds depending

148
00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:02.799
<v Speaker 1>on where they are. And you know what's nuts. I mean,

149
00:09:02.840 --> 00:09:07.399
<v Speaker 1>we're down to I don't know, one hundred million egg

150
00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:11.360
<v Speaker 1>laying birds right now or something. We almost have to

151
00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:18.120
<v Speaker 1>have one egg laying chicken per person in the United

152
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:21.559
<v Speaker 1>States to be at.

153
00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:22.039
<v Speaker 3>The normal rationship.

154
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:22.879
<v Speaker 2>That's three times.

155
00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:27.720
<v Speaker 1>But isn't that insane? Like it takes that's about what

156
00:09:27.799 --> 00:09:31.000
<v Speaker 1>it is. It's somewhere around three hundred and let's say

157
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:37.559
<v Speaker 1>eighteen three hundred and twenty million hens, and we're around

158
00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:39.200
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and some odd million ring.

159
00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:42.039
<v Speaker 3>But you know you're right. For example, you still get

160
00:09:42.039 --> 00:09:42.879
<v Speaker 3>the rotistary chicken.

161
00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:46.240
<v Speaker 2>We talked about that earlier this morning at Costco, and

162
00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:48.279
<v Speaker 2>the other day I was at Costco because I'm always

163
00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:50.240
<v Speaker 2>at Costco, and I know you buy a rotissary chicken,

164
00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:51.639
<v Speaker 2>it's still five bucks and they.

165
00:09:51.480 --> 00:09:55.039
<v Speaker 3>Give you a thermometer they throw it in.

166
00:09:55.919 --> 00:09:59.279
<v Speaker 1>It is well, that's a lost leader of course for them,

167
00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:04.440
<v Speaker 1>of course, but it is. People do get confused when

168
00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:08.480
<v Speaker 1>they say, well, aren't we killing off the chickens? And

169
00:10:08.519 --> 00:10:12.519
<v Speaker 1>how come we're able to get decent prices When you

170
00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:13.519
<v Speaker 1>look at eggs.

171
00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:15.200
<v Speaker 3>We just paid.

172
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:21.360
<v Speaker 1>Nine dollars or something for eggs at the local grocery

173
00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:23.080
<v Speaker 1>store for a dozen eggs.

174
00:10:23.360 --> 00:10:25.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's pretty crazy. That's nine bucks. What should they

175
00:10:25.879 --> 00:10:28.080
<v Speaker 3>be considering inflation.

176
00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:32.120
<v Speaker 1>Around three dollars? I think three fifty? Yeah, I mean

177
00:10:32.559 --> 00:10:35.679
<v Speaker 1>that that could still be Yeah, that would probably be

178
00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:39.519
<v Speaker 1>about the norm, maybe maybe even a little lower. They

179
00:10:39.559 --> 00:10:43.320
<v Speaker 1>can be very inexpensive when we are in complete balance.

180
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:46.879
<v Speaker 2>So how long does it take to bring back the

181
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:50.480
<v Speaker 2>flocks to the point where we hit normal production?

182
00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:56.000
<v Speaker 1>You know there, I've seen different and read different different

183
00:10:56.039 --> 00:10:59.360
<v Speaker 1>timelines as to what it would take. But we're definitely

184
00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:02.360
<v Speaker 1>not going to turn it around overnight. I mean you're

185
00:11:02.480 --> 00:11:09.720
<v Speaker 1>looking at I was reading about someone breaking down how

186
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:12.559
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people want to start their own little

187
00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:15.440
<v Speaker 1>egg farms in their in their backyard. A lot of

188
00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:18.679
<v Speaker 1>people are doing that, and they're even saying don't buy

189
00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:24.080
<v Speaker 1>an adult chicken or hand to raise them from chicks,

190
00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:27.559
<v Speaker 1>to control their environment and how they're raised in all

191
00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:30.320
<v Speaker 1>of those things. So it does take to get to

192
00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:34.919
<v Speaker 1>maturity to start laying eggs does take some times, and

193
00:11:34.960 --> 00:11:37.639
<v Speaker 1>of course you know that's part of the egg laying

194
00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:42.480
<v Speaker 1>processes as well. They're just not eating them, they're fertilizing them.

195
00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:45.519
<v Speaker 1>And and when you have a shortage, now you're using

196
00:11:45.519 --> 00:11:47.559
<v Speaker 1>some of those eggs to create more.

197
00:11:47.799 --> 00:11:50.720
<v Speaker 2>You are you using less eggs in your life? I am?

198
00:11:51.480 --> 00:11:51.799
<v Speaker 3>I am?

199
00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:54.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean we go. I've got an eight year

200
00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:57.000
<v Speaker 1>old boy, so and I love eggs. I think eggs

201
00:11:57.440 --> 00:12:03.080
<v Speaker 1>are a cheap, easy protein and you know, and they're tasty,

202
00:12:03.960 --> 00:12:07.360
<v Speaker 1>so but yeah, I eat a little less eggs these days,

203
00:12:07.440 --> 00:12:10.200
<v Speaker 1>just you know, but we we still keep them in

204
00:12:10.240 --> 00:12:10.639
<v Speaker 1>the house.

205
00:12:10.679 --> 00:12:16.120
<v Speaker 2>They're still there, all right, Neil, Oh, tomorrow you do

206
00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:17.120
<v Speaker 2>the Fork Report.

<v Speaker 1>Yes, I'm broadcasting live tomorrow from Morongo Casino Resort and

00:12:27.519 --> 00:12:29.840
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not going to share with you. But Neil

210
00:12:29.840 --> 00:12:33.399
<v Speaker 2>and I are in the midst of putting together a

211
00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:36.120
<v Speaker 2>broadcast together that we have never done.

212
00:12:36.879 --> 00:12:42.240
<v Speaker 3>And I'm talking about yeah that one. Okay, okay, all right?

213
00:12:43.320 --> 00:12:44.000
<v Speaker 1>What a tease?

214
00:12:44.080 --> 00:12:44.720
<v Speaker 2>What a tease?

215
00:12:44.799 --> 00:12:50.440
<v Speaker 3>I can tease myself anything I can't fine handle.

216
00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:54.279
<v Speaker 2>Here we in Friday, last two segments with ask Me

217
00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:57.039
<v Speaker 2>Anything or ask handle Anything. And we do this every

218
00:12:57.039 --> 00:13:00.879
<v Speaker 2>Friday now and we record questions during the week and

219
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:01.879
<v Speaker 2>Cono plays them.

220
00:13:01.919 --> 00:13:03.240
<v Speaker 3>I have not heard these questions.

221
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:05.919
<v Speaker 2>Case of first impressionment is we say in the legal

222
00:13:05.919 --> 00:13:09.919
<v Speaker 2>field and I get to answer them spontaneously and usually

223
00:13:10.039 --> 00:13:14.080
<v Speaker 2>well you'll hear Cono. Why don't we start and give

224
00:13:14.120 --> 00:13:19.679
<v Speaker 2>everybody a taste of asininity? Is that now a verb

225
00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:20.440
<v Speaker 2>to asinine?

226
00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:25.960
<v Speaker 3>All right? Hey, Bill, just wondering what was the most.

227
00:13:25.720 --> 00:13:28.879
<v Speaker 1>Pivotal moment in your life that really shaped you into

228
00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:29.600
<v Speaker 1>the man you are?

229
00:13:29.679 --> 00:13:30.039
<v Speaker 3>Today.

230
00:13:30.919 --> 00:13:35.240
<v Speaker 2>My circumcision, I was eight days old and I still

231
00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:39.960
<v Speaker 2>remember the cutting off of the schwantz. By the way,

232
00:13:40.039 --> 00:13:43.279
<v Speaker 2>just a quick little bit of information for you. Do

233
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:47.919
<v Speaker 2>you know that you rarely see Jewish alcoholics very rarely.

234
00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:50.960
<v Speaker 3>And you know why. I'll tell you why. There's a

235
00:13:51.039 --> 00:13:51.679
<v Speaker 3>reason for it.

236
00:13:51.720 --> 00:13:57.120
<v Speaker 2>Because when a baby is circumcised, usually a male baby,

237
00:13:56.200 --> 00:14:00.519
<v Speaker 2>the moil, the guy who does a circumcision, usually a rabbi,

238
00:14:01.279 --> 00:14:05.200
<v Speaker 2>gets the kid drunk, literally gets the kid drunk. You

239
00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:08.360
<v Speaker 2>dip you a little rag or a little bit of

240
00:14:08.360 --> 00:14:12.240
<v Speaker 2>cloth into a into some wine, and the kid suckles

241
00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:14.600
<v Speaker 2>on it because kids do. That kid is high, and

242
00:14:14.639 --> 00:14:18.759
<v Speaker 2>then there goes the slice. And so here's what happens.

243
00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:22.519
<v Speaker 2>And this is subconsciously because you really don't remember. Subconsciously,

244
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:31.399
<v Speaker 2>it's alcohol schaunts being cut, alcohol schaunts being cut. That

245
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:34.039
<v Speaker 2>was a pivotal moment in my life. Let me tell you, God,

246
00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:37.799
<v Speaker 2>I remember that took off too much. Actually, okay, let's

247
00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:38.120
<v Speaker 2>move on.

248
00:14:39.279 --> 00:14:42.320
<v Speaker 1>Hey, Bill, is it true that you have a little

249
00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:44.320
<v Speaker 1>satchel of jew gold around your neck?

250
00:14:45.559 --> 00:14:47.480
<v Speaker 3>Just carrious you anti Semite?

251
00:14:48.519 --> 00:14:50.039
<v Speaker 2>You know what, I'm the only one that can make

252
00:14:50.039 --> 00:14:53.159
<v Speaker 2>fun of Jews. Okay, that that one's done. God, I

253
00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:55.360
<v Speaker 2>hit anti Semitism, except when I'm doing it.

254
00:14:55.440 --> 00:14:57.240
<v Speaker 4>What if he was a Jewish guy.

255
00:14:57.679 --> 00:15:01.720
<v Speaker 2>Then he's self loathing you the way I am. Then

256
00:15:02.200 --> 00:15:06.759
<v Speaker 2>that's legitimate. Then okay, moving on, Bill, I.

257
00:15:06.639 --> 00:15:09.279
<v Speaker 5>Have a question for you. What do you listen to

258
00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:12.000
<v Speaker 5>on your way home? Do you listen to KFI? Or

259
00:15:12.000 --> 00:15:15.799
<v Speaker 5>do you ever listen to KFI going or coming from home?

260
00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:18.480
<v Speaker 5>And will you listen to them on your way home

261
00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:22.720
<v Speaker 5>when you move? And if you listen to music, what

262
00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:23.960
<v Speaker 5>kind of music do you like?

263
00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:25.279
<v Speaker 3>Oh, it's a good question.

264
00:15:26.039 --> 00:15:28.399
<v Speaker 2>First of all, I already am in my new home,

265
00:15:29.360 --> 00:15:32.000
<v Speaker 2>so I'll tell you what I default to.

266
00:15:32.840 --> 00:15:34.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't listen to a lot of music.

267
00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:41.240
<v Speaker 2>Sometimes I don't listen to a lot of talk radio because, frankly,

268
00:15:41.279 --> 00:15:44.960
<v Speaker 2>I think that all of us are miserable. Had if

269
00:15:45.000 --> 00:15:47.080
<v Speaker 2>I was the program director, i'd fire everybody and put

270
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:50.639
<v Speaker 2>me on probation. Frankly at this station, because I hear that.

271
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:53.039
<v Speaker 2>I hear a lot, and so I'm involved. You know what,

272
00:15:53.080 --> 00:15:55.679
<v Speaker 2>I do listen to a lot of hard news. In

273
00:15:55.720 --> 00:15:58.240
<v Speaker 2>case you haven't guessed you yet, I'm a hard news junkie,

274
00:15:58.720 --> 00:16:01.639
<v Speaker 2>and so I'll listen on the way. I listen to CNN.

275
00:16:01.720 --> 00:16:05.120
<v Speaker 2>I'll listen to Fox. I'll listen to BBC. I read

276
00:16:05.159 --> 00:16:07.440
<v Speaker 2>the newspaper every morning, so I do that a lot.

277
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:11.879
<v Speaker 2>But I do Channel Surf. Whenever I want to feel

278
00:16:11.919 --> 00:16:15.200
<v Speaker 2>complete hatred towards everybody, I will tune into John COLEBLT.

279
00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:19.440
<v Speaker 2>When I want to hear sports that I don't understand

280
00:16:19.480 --> 00:16:23.879
<v Speaker 2>at all, I'll listen to Gary and Shannon. But and

281
00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:26.519
<v Speaker 2>then music I will listen to. I like Beatles, that

282
00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:31.200
<v Speaker 2>sort of thing. The two stations I listen to and Sirious,

283
00:16:31.840 --> 00:16:35.000
<v Speaker 2>the Blend and whatever the other one is that plays

284
00:16:35.840 --> 00:16:38.679
<v Speaker 2>my kind of mellow music, because I'm a mellow kind

285
00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:42.720
<v Speaker 2>of guy. Okay, on see, I don't say I'm telling

286
00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:44.519
<v Speaker 2>you I have not heard these questions.

287
00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:46.480
<v Speaker 3>And that's what makes this so much fun. All right,

288
00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:48.600
<v Speaker 3>cono one more before the break.

289
00:16:49.240 --> 00:16:54.559
<v Speaker 6>Hi, Bill, this is Joan, and I'm headed to Orange

290
00:16:54.600 --> 00:16:59.279
<v Speaker 6>County in April, and I'm going to go to the

291
00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:04.799
<v Speaker 6>Anaheim White House on your major suggestions, since your daughter

292
00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:07.720
<v Speaker 6>got married there, so I wanted to know what I

293
00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:08.680
<v Speaker 6>should order there.

294
00:17:10.200 --> 00:17:10.759
<v Speaker 3>Good question.

295
00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:16.599
<v Speaker 6>I would take your advice and hope that you can

296
00:17:16.720 --> 00:17:18.319
<v Speaker 6>offer good Joan.

297
00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:21.079
<v Speaker 2>All right, Joan, I hope you don't die before April.

298
00:17:21.119 --> 00:17:24.599
<v Speaker 2>You sound like you're one hundred and forty, which I

299
00:17:24.640 --> 00:17:27.599
<v Speaker 2>get a lot of that handle on the law and

300
00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:30.640
<v Speaker 2>what to order an Anaheim White House, I'll tell you what.

301
00:17:31.559 --> 00:17:34.119

310
00:17:59.359 --> 00:18:00.039
<v Speaker 3>Forget about it.

311
00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:02.480
<v Speaker 4>Also, the Secret Service drink was really good.

312
00:18:02.759 --> 00:18:03.720
<v Speaker 3>I have no idea what that is.

313
00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:05.920
<v Speaker 4>I don't beverage for over twenty one.

<v Speaker 3>Oh, it's called the Secret Service. Yeah.

318
00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:18.440
<v Speaker 2>So they do great pastas. They also have to have

319
00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:21.480
<v Speaker 2>great steaks too. Even though it's northern, a lot of

<v Speaker 2>northern Italian and Bruno is self taught.

323
00:18:29.920 --> 00:18:32.799
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, his mama taught him. Yeah, he did that right.

324
00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:34.200
<v Speaker 4>Okay, Bill.

325
00:18:34.240 --> 00:18:38.680
<v Speaker 6>Considering the price of eggs in southern California, my friends

326
00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:41.319
<v Speaker 6>and I are discussing and I need your economic advice.

327
00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:43.680
<v Speaker 5>Do you think the when the.

328
00:18:43.240 --> 00:18:46.759
<v Speaker 6>Market recovers from bird flu, if the prices will ever

329
00:18:46.839 --> 00:18:48.240
<v Speaker 6>go back to a dollar.

330
00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:50.279
<v Speaker 5>Ninety nine for a dozen eggs? Help?

331
00:18:50.359 --> 00:18:51.319
<v Speaker 4>We need your advice.

332
00:18:53.559 --> 00:18:56.279
<v Speaker 3>No idea, got nothing.

333
00:18:57.160 --> 00:19:02.400
<v Speaker 1>Next question, Bill, if you had a free trip on

334
00:19:02.400 --> 00:19:03.640
<v Speaker 1>that cruise ship with.

335
00:19:05.319 --> 00:19:09.799
<v Speaker 3>Colbert, would you go Cobalt? Would I go?

336
00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:14.200
<v Speaker 2>You have no idea how much money I would pay

337
00:19:14.519 --> 00:19:16.519
<v Speaker 2>not to go with John Cobalt.

338
00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:19.359
<v Speaker 3>It's astronomical.

339
00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:24.039
<v Speaker 2>I have actually traveled with John Cobalt, and I don't

340
00:19:24.039 --> 00:19:25.559
<v Speaker 2>know how many years ago. That must have been twenty

341
00:19:25.599 --> 00:19:28.000
<v Speaker 2>five thirty years ago. I'm still in therapy over that,

342
00:19:28.079 --> 00:19:28.519
<v Speaker 2>by the way.

343
00:19:30.119 --> 00:19:33.559
<v Speaker 7>Next question, I really enjoyed your podcast, and I was

344
00:19:33.599 --> 00:19:36.400
<v Speaker 7>sad that you decided not to do it anymore. But

345
00:19:36.480 --> 00:19:39.359
<v Speaker 7>I was wondering more about your mom's side of the

346
00:19:39.359 --> 00:19:41.119
<v Speaker 7>family and how she came to Brazil.

347
00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:43.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh that's a very good Oh, that's a good question.

348
00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:48.519
<v Speaker 2>She came to Brazil because my grandmother. Now she came

349
00:19:48.559 --> 00:19:51.000
<v Speaker 2>my mom went to Brazil and she came as an infant,

350
00:19:51.480 --> 00:19:55.880
<v Speaker 2>my grandma who came from Poland. She was a victim

351
00:19:56.119 --> 00:20:01.039
<v Speaker 2>of the Pigrims who that were going this Nazi Germany.

352
00:20:01.559 --> 00:20:05.799
<v Speaker 2>Jewish people didn't do very well in Poland, especially it

353
00:20:05.839 --> 00:20:07.759
<v Speaker 2>was always Russia Pole and it went back and forth

354
00:20:08.319 --> 00:20:11.480
<v Speaker 2>unzer Zar Nicholas, both the first and the second. They

355
00:20:11.519 --> 00:20:13.799
<v Speaker 2>just weren't treated well, and there were programs. The Cossacks

356
00:20:13.839 --> 00:20:16.119
<v Speaker 2>came around, they just started killing everybody, and so she

357
00:20:16.200 --> 00:20:19.039
<v Speaker 2>got the hell out, which is why interesting. I mean,

358
00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:22.000
<v Speaker 2>that gives me another offshoot. Good that let me write

359
00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:24.240
<v Speaker 2>into the next little segment that I want to give

360
00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:27.279
<v Speaker 2>you a little bit of history. The reason that in

361
00:20:27.319 --> 00:20:32.200
<v Speaker 2>the Jewish religion, your Judaism, someone's being Jewish flows from

362
00:20:32.240 --> 00:20:36.359
<v Speaker 2>the mother, not from the father. From the mother is

363
00:20:36.519 --> 00:20:42.240
<v Speaker 2>historically because Jewish women were raped so many times.

364
00:20:41.839 --> 00:20:43.079
<v Speaker 3>Over the course of history.

365
00:20:43.400 --> 00:20:47.960
<v Speaker 2>As these programs come through that you could delineate easily

366
00:20:48.039 --> 00:20:50.559
<v Speaker 2>a child from the mother you knew came from a

367
00:20:50.640 --> 00:20:54.920
<v Speaker 2>Jewish person. With the father you had no idea because

368
00:20:54.960 --> 00:20:58.440
<v Speaker 2>of these crazy Cossacks and these military guys who would

369
00:20:58.480 --> 00:21:01.720
<v Speaker 2>come in pillage and rape. I mean, it's a horrific story,

370
00:21:01.759 --> 00:21:06.559
<v Speaker 2>but there it is. Don't know if that's true or not,

371
00:21:06.599 --> 00:21:08.880
<v Speaker 2>but it sure sounds great. I think that is true,

372
00:21:08.920 --> 00:21:11.920
<v Speaker 2>by the way. Yeah, I mean I think that is.

373
00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:12.759
<v Speaker 2>Is that apocryphal?

374
00:21:13.079 --> 00:21:14.279
<v Speaker 3>Not really? All right?

375
00:21:14.359 --> 00:21:18.319
<v Speaker 8>Next question George Northridge. You know, Bill, I know that

376
00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:21.519
<v Speaker 8>sometimes you can come across as a pretty harsh person

377
00:21:21.599 --> 00:21:24.920
<v Speaker 8>in your opinions, And I'm just curious, Bill, have you

378
00:21:24.960 --> 00:21:27.079
<v Speaker 8>ever been in a situation where, you know, if you

379
00:21:27.200 --> 00:21:31.480
<v Speaker 8>expressed your opinion and you've angered that said person or

380
00:21:31.559 --> 00:21:33.279
<v Speaker 8>person so much that they just got.

381
00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:33.839
<v Speaker 3>Up and whooped you.

382
00:21:34.640 --> 00:21:37.319
<v Speaker 2>Oh that's a good question too, by the way, Georgia,

383
00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:42.319
<v Speaker 2>thanks for asking that question. Ironically enough, George Northridge lives

384
00:21:42.319 --> 00:21:45.359
<v Speaker 2>in Woodland Hills. I don't know if you knew that.

385
00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:51.720
<v Speaker 2>Has anybody gotten up and whooped me? No, they've gotten

386
00:21:51.799 --> 00:21:54.440
<v Speaker 2>up and left me. But you know, I'm a pretty

387
00:21:54.440 --> 00:21:57.240
<v Speaker 2>big guy. I mean I was six ' one and

388
00:21:57.279 --> 00:21:59.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, way in two hundred and while I used

389
00:21:59.440 --> 00:22:02.519
<v Speaker 2>to wig up to three hundred pounds, but no, it's now.

390
00:22:02.519 --> 00:22:03.799
<v Speaker 2>I used to be six to one. You know how

391
00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:07.079
<v Speaker 2>when you get older you tend to shrink. I used

392
00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:09.200
<v Speaker 2>to be six to one I'm five foot four now,

393
00:22:10.000 --> 00:22:13.160
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there just is incredible shrinkage going on.

394
00:22:13.960 --> 00:22:14.400
<v Speaker 3>All right.

395
00:22:14.720 --> 00:22:17.440
<v Speaker 2>I think we're gonna finish it up with that because

396
00:22:17.480 --> 00:22:20.799
<v Speaker 2>we have a good time. I had by all. Also,

397
00:22:20.839 --> 00:22:24.079
<v Speaker 2>at some point some one will ask me, and maybe

398
00:22:24.119 --> 00:22:26.160
<v Speaker 2>I'll share with you next time, and I'll ask myself

399
00:22:27.119 --> 00:22:30.400
<v Speaker 2>of all the questions I've gotten on Hand Along the Law.

400
00:22:30.440 --> 00:22:31.960
<v Speaker 3>I keep in mind, let me tell you how long

401
00:22:32.000 --> 00:22:33.079
<v Speaker 3>Hand Along the Law has.

402
00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:37.960
<v Speaker 2>Been on the air since nineteen eighty five, Okay, I

403
00:22:37.960 --> 00:22:42.960
<v Speaker 2>mean that's approaching a long time. I think next week

404
00:22:43.400 --> 00:22:47.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to share with you the best phone call

405

423
00:23:44.160 --> 00:23:45.440
