Speaker 5: It is inspired to make more money, but it's not
Speaker 5: overcharging me for this past.
Speaker 2: Well, you guys to be honest, and I'm going to
Speaker 2: be honest now. Is uh The Disney pass pays for
Speaker 2: itself in very short period of time. Couple reasons. One
Speaker 2: is now a per day pass is what eight hundred
Speaker 2: nine hundred dollars and change?
Speaker 3: Don't rile up us Disney folks man on a Friday morning.
Speaker 2: You know, Disney has never asked me to do commercials.
Speaker 4: I wonder why.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Kaiser has done the same thing with me. You know,
Speaker 2: I'm a fan of Kaiser. I've been with Kaiser since
Speaker 2: I've been five years old, so I've been around a
Speaker 2: long time. When he came to America, almost the first
Speaker 2: thing we did to sign up with Kaiser, And I
Speaker 2: tell people, have Kaiser, it's phenomenal you've got I mean,
Speaker 2: you've got a fifty to fifty chance they're going to
Speaker 2: kill you whenever you go there, granted, but if you're
Speaker 2: one of the few people that survive, you're going to
Speaker 2: be very happy with the service. Wow, no commercials from Kaiser.
Speaker 3: The geriatric unit called Geezer.
Speaker 2: Oh not bad? Not bad?
Speaker 3: Okay, it's pretty bad.
Speaker 2: Yeah, see, you know what it's not bad? Neil. Neil
Speaker 2: occasionally has lines or retorts or views that I get
Speaker 2: very angry with him because I'm pissed off that I
Speaker 2: didn't think of those.
Speaker 3: You should hear the ones I don't say, so that
Speaker 3: you know, Oh, I've heard the ones you don't get fired.
Speaker 2: Oh no, I've heard the ones you don't say. And
Speaker 2: that's that's our law. That's my last broadcast here on
Speaker 2: KFI is We're going to be putting together a what
Speaker 2: is called a sizzle reel and it will simply be statements, comments, stories, interactions,
Speaker 2: retorts that would never ever make it on the air,
Speaker 2: or if they did, that would be the last day
Speaker 2: I'd have them. And that's exactly what the last day
Speaker 2: is going to be about. Okay, fair enough. Oh, tonight
Speaker 2: is an event that I am going to that none
Speaker 2: of you will be invited to or are and that
Speaker 2: is the anniversary of Caterina's cleb at Anaheim White House.
Speaker 2: And they've been around, I think for twenty years and
Speaker 2: they just hit ten million meals that Bruno has served
Speaker 2: to kids in need. I mean, it is phenomenal. So
Speaker 2: just on, behalf of the kids, thank you, and behalf
Speaker 2: that those those those of us that are gonna get
Speaker 2: free food tonight, thank you. Uh And again the morning crew,
Speaker 2: Bruno did say, please tell the morning crew that we
Speaker 2: appreciate the work and they are not invited tonight.
Speaker 3: You know, how about a little shout out to Michelle Cube.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Michelle is the one that first found Yeah,
Speaker 2: and someone asked me, and someone asked me last night
Speaker 2: or a couple of nights ago, exactly how it all started.
Speaker 2: And you have to give Michelle the credit. She found
Speaker 2: Catalina's club. She puts together our apastathon every year, and uh,
Speaker 2: without Michelle, this could really not have happened. Well, actually
Speaker 2: a coc to be honest with you, probably not listen.
Speaker 3: And she doesn't get paid extra to have, you know,
Speaker 3: those long days to during pastathon and.
Speaker 2: All nobody gets paid extra to do anything at iHeart.
Speaker 3: You see what she did for the wiggle wagglewalk too.
Speaker 3: She just she's very giving. It was you know Marion
Speaker 3: Brown here.
Speaker 2: It's very strange. All right, guys. It's a Foody Friday,
Speaker 2: which means that at eight o'clock we do Foody Friday
Speaker 2: with Neil. At eight thirty it's asked handle anything. However,
Speaker 2: at six am, which is right about now, it's handled
Speaker 2: on the news Amy Neil and me lead story. Well,
Speaker 2: federal judge ruled yesterday and this is the second time
Speaker 2: a ruling as like this has come down. Google has
Speaker 2: created a monopoly allowing to control parts of the entire
Speaker 2: online advertising industry. And what does that mean? Could be
Speaker 2: asked to break apart part of its vast empire. And
Speaker 2: so I mean, we're talking about hundreds of billions of
Speaker 2: dollars of revenue every year.
Speaker 5: So what do they do with that bill I mean,
Speaker 5: if they're ordered to break it up, do they just
Speaker 5: sell it off to friends?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, they spin it off, or it becomes an
Speaker 2: independent country company.
Speaker 4: It could be a country it's worth enough.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, But they're just forced to sell it off,
Speaker 2: spin it off, much like with Zuckerberg. It may happen
Speaker 2: that he's going to be forced to spin off WhatsApp, Instagram.
Speaker 2: Just sell it.
Speaker 3: People that rich don't lose money. What they do is
Speaker 3: they shift it around Amy's sometimes they sell it out
Speaker 3: control somehow some.
Speaker 2: I mean, they're really good at what they do. It's
Speaker 2: not an accident that these guys are billionaires and these
Speaker 2: companies so overwhelmed the entire industry. Anothery're shooting.
Speaker 5: Yeah, mass shooter uses his mom's gun. At eleven fifty
Speaker 5: local time yesterday, gunfire rang out on the campus of
Speaker 5: Florida State University in Tallahassee. Before it was done, two
Speaker 5: people had been killed, five others were hurt, and then
Speaker 5: the shooter was also quote neutralized by authorities.
Speaker 4: Police. He's got killed, not killed, He's still alive.
Speaker 5: Police are saying that the shooter's mom is a sheriff's
Speaker 5: deputy with the Leone County Sheriff's Office and said that
Speaker 5: the twenty year old shooter used his mom's weapon.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Now she's I think and should get in trouble
Speaker 2: for failing to secure her weapon, allowing her twenty year
Speaker 2: old to get access to that guy. Well, we're going
Speaker 2: to find out you bet having her anyult.
Speaker 4: He's not a kid.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're still talking about securing weapons. I think
Speaker 2: you have to secure weapons period at your house. I mean,
Speaker 2: and I don't know, maybe maybe not, maybe not in Florida.
Speaker 2: Maybe in Florida. You have to make weapons available to
Speaker 2: children and everybody else. He's not a child with big
Speaker 2: arrows pointing to where the guns are or they're in
Speaker 2: a gun say with a big posted a note that
Speaker 2: says here is the combination. This is Florida. But it
Speaker 2: doesn't matter whether it's a child or not. Maybe it's
Speaker 2: an enhanced law that's violated, but I think any gun
Speaker 2: at home has to be secured.
Speaker 3: And I thought modern day age is twenty is still
Speaker 3: a kid, aren't you?
Speaker 2: It depends eighteen. By the way, I may be dead
Speaker 2: wrong about the law. Maybe it's just children, but I
Speaker 2: would think against anybody, you have to secure the guns.
Speaker 2: If a burglar comes in, what.
Speaker 3: I think law enforcement, you would assume they have to
Speaker 3: secure their sight arm when they get home.
Speaker 2: Yeah, or it's even more a violation with law enforcement
Speaker 2: because they are aware and they live with guns. All right,
Speaker 2: all right?
Speaker 3: US President Donald Trump, maybe you heard of him, just yesterday,
Speaker 3: launched a series of attacks against Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.
Speaker 3: This is escalet. He's accusing the Central Bank chief of
Speaker 3: playing politics by not cutting interest rates, asserting that he
Speaker 3: had the power to evict Powell from his job. Hey,
Speaker 3: did we ever figure out if that's even possible? Bill?
Speaker 2: It is possible, but only for cause. The law says
Speaker 2: that a FED chair can be removed but must have
Speaker 2: done something fundamentally wrong for cause, otherwise can't be touched.
Speaker 2: Now nominated by the President, confirmed by the Senate, which
Speaker 2: is how Powell got in. He's a Trump nominee, and
Speaker 2: so Trump is arguing that Powell's refusal to lower interest
Speaker 2: rates is somehow political and it is anti Trump. Where
Speaker 2: the FED is actually independent of the federal government. The
Speaker 2: FED just does what the FED does monetary policy, totally
Speaker 2: non political.
Speaker 3: What the FED is separate from the Feds.
Speaker 2: No, the Feds, Well, yeah, good point, the FED, the
Speaker 2: Federal reserve system. This is it is in fact, just
Speaker 2: a quick one. And now we go back to my background.
Speaker 2: You've heard of that, you've been there, the Western Wall
Speaker 2: that Jews prey at in Jerusalem. The real Western Wall
Speaker 2: is the western wall of the FED building.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, nice, Moving on.
Speaker 5: Maryland Center has gotten his way, well sort of, at
Speaker 5: least half of what he wanted. Senator Chris van Holland
Speaker 5: flew to l Salvador. He said his goal was to
Speaker 5: meet with Kilmar Abrego Garcia, and at first they said, nope,
Speaker 5: you can't meet with him. But last night they did
Speaker 5: get together and had a meeting. Attorneys are fighting to
Speaker 5: force the Trump administration and to facilitate his return to
Speaker 5: the US, which so far the administration has said, nope,
Speaker 5: he's staying there.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Interesting that he was able to meet because initially,
Speaker 2: I mean he went down on his own, without any invitation,
Speaker 2: without any agreement, without any appointment, and El Salvador said, no,
Speaker 2: you're not meeting with him. And that's changed because there
Speaker 2: was there was talk out there that he had been killed,
Speaker 2: that he had been injured, that he was treated badly.
Speaker 2: And there's a photo of him of Abrego with the
Speaker 2: senator holding up that Trump gold card. Because Abrago seems
Speaker 2: to have been able to raise five million.
Speaker 3: Dollars, I wouldn't be surprised in this weird climate with
Speaker 3: somebody raising five million dollars on like gofund me.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And so so he comes back and it becomes well,
Speaker 2: he actually was here legally.
Speaker 4: We came here illegally.
Speaker 2: He came illegally granted, that's true.
Speaker 5: He was able to stay because the judge said, even
Speaker 5: though you're probably a gang member, the threat of you
Speaker 5: getting hurt in your home country is greater.
Speaker 4: So they let me.
Speaker 2: Now a point I want to make to your point.
Speaker 2: He was granted status to stay here, okay.
Speaker 5: And that grant legal status or they just decided not
Speaker 5: to kick him out.
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, he has legal status, but he can
Speaker 2: be removed instantly. The administration has the ability to remove.
Speaker 3: That all about paperwork, right, So it's.
Speaker 2: About granting the ability to stay. Now, the administration says
Speaker 2: he got tossed even though he was an accident because
Speaker 2: he's a member of MS MS thirteen, and his defense
Speaker 2: his lawyers are saying, there is he has never been
Speaker 2: charged or there is no evidence that has been presented
Speaker 2: in court. They're not refuting, by the way, that he
Speaker 2: is a member of MS or not. They're not denying, saying,
Speaker 2: oh no, he's not. His of course his family is
Speaker 2: all his defense attorneys are saying, there is no evidence
Speaker 2: that you've been able to produce. Is it the same?
Speaker 2: Probably not. There's a big difference between someone actually being
Speaker 2: guilty and there's not enough evidence to prove that action court.
Speaker 2: With tattoos or not that we've seen. Now, well, there's
Speaker 2: pictures of him with tattoos all over the place. I mean,
Speaker 2: the guy's tatted up like crazy. But you would think
Speaker 2: that the administration would show a tattoo showing he's a
Speaker 2: member of MS thirteen.
Speaker 5: Okay, so what about this one bill, Because then Carolyn Levitt,
Speaker 5: who's the Press secretary, did produce reports that he had
Speaker 5: like beat up his girlfriend a couple of Yeah.
Speaker 2: That doesn't mean he's a member of MS thirteen. By
Speaker 2: the way, beating up his girlfriend is probably beating up
Speaker 2: his girlfriend is probably enough to get him tossed because
Speaker 2: it has to do with we there's a moral aspect
Speaker 2: to being allowed in the United States. You have to
Speaker 2: be a good moral character, or the government can determine
Speaker 2: if you're a good moral character.
Speaker 3: Well, that's for sure. There is information about him beating
Speaker 3: up his girlfriend.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, but the point of this story is
Speaker 2: that the government mistakenly tossed him into prison. He got
Speaker 2: part of a group of people.
Speaker 3: Which means this is all based on a technicality.
Speaker 2: Uh No, I don't know, because the judge had once
Speaker 2: he was in the air. The judge has ordered that
Speaker 2: he'd be returned. Is it a technicality or was it
Speaker 2: a mistake? If you get if you get arrested because
Speaker 2: someone else's name is Savedra and it happens all the time,
Speaker 2: for example, when you have a do not if you're
Speaker 2: on the do not fly list, and you just have
Speaker 2: to say, is that a technicality? I don't know.
Speaker 3: We know who he is and we know that he's
Speaker 3: probably not a good guy, So on a technicality, we're
Speaker 3: saying he shouldn't have been. That's just weird to mean. Well,
Speaker 3: on the side of us being protected, I'm all right
Speaker 3: with that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I am all right.
Speaker 3: We're gonna take an identity. It's not anything like that.
Speaker 2: No, it's just that he got rounded up and where
Speaker 2: he normally would not have been tossed out. If they
Speaker 2: were more careful, they wouldn't have thrown him out. We're
Speaker 2: coming because the bad guys are being deported. Just the
Speaker 2: bad guys. Well, there's no proof he's ever been charged.
Speaker 2: You can't just assume someone's a bad person because they
Speaker 2: have a Latino surname unless it's Savedra. We're coming back tattoos.
Speaker 3: I have a Latino surname, absolutely, But.
Speaker 2: That's where it's I don't have a right anywhere phone
Speaker 2: called the ice.
Speaker 3: The Menenda twins or brothers resentencing bit is delayed, so
Speaker 3: you have this highly anticipated resenting hearing everybody who's waiting
Speaker 3: for yesterday for the convicted killers Eric and Lyle Menendez.
Speaker 3: If you remember, if you're familiar or forgot, in nineteen
Speaker 3: eighty nine, they shot their parents in the face basically
Speaker 3: the Beverly Hills mansion there and with a shotgun, if
Speaker 3: I'm not mistaken, and even went outside and reloaded it.
Speaker 3: So it kicked off yesterday, but it unraveled pretty darn quickly,
Speaker 3: and it was postponed by the judge. The hearing was
Speaker 3: set to decide whether the brothers serving a life sentence
Speaker 3: without the possibility of parole, should receive a new sentence.
Speaker 3: It could allow.
Speaker 2: Nathan Hachman, because someone mute, please Nathan Hawkman, the attorney.
Speaker 2: The DA has been fighting this. He wants to keep
Speaker 2: them in jail. And what he did is asked for
Speaker 2: a continuance and he got it. He got it, So
Speaker 2: we'll follow that one up on May third.
Speaker 3: You know what bugs meet. There's something in the logic
Speaker 3: called infinite regression where you just keep adding a link
Speaker 3: to the chain, right, instead of answering something. So I
Speaker 3: get that they might have been horrifically tortured and abused
Speaker 3: as children, which is I get it, that's horrible, But
Speaker 3: if what if their father was horrifically abused as a child,
Speaker 3: and you keep pushing this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know it's a good point.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so nobody's accountable at that point, you just keep
Speaker 3: pushing the blame back. Ultimately, have to be accountable for
Speaker 3: your own actions, regardless of what happened to you, unless
Speaker 3: it's directly self defense.
Speaker 2: That's true, that's true. You know. For example, just give
Speaker 2: me an example. My dad, because he's old school, beat
Speaker 2: the crap out of me when I was a kid.
Speaker 2: Does that mean I'm justified in playing kickball with my daughters?
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, defense. I don't think it was because you know,
Speaker 3: he was old school. I think any parent would have
Speaker 3: beat you.
Speaker 2: Thank you. He actually was seriously bipolar. But that's a
Speaker 2: different issue. Okay, moving on.
Speaker 4: Amy uh making the deal for minerals.
Speaker 5: Meetings between Ukraine and the United States on a rare
Speaker 5: earth minerals deal, for me to say, have been hailed
Speaker 5: as really productive and positive. That according to Ukraine's President
Speaker 5: Volodomyr Zelenski, remember the deal was close to being done
Speaker 5: and then they had that blowout in the Oval office
Speaker 5: between Zelensky and Trump. But now a memorandum of intent
Speaker 5: could be signed as early as today and then they'd
Speaker 5: work on the full agreement. And in the agreement, apparently
Speaker 5: we get the minerals, they get our protection.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't understand a lot of this. First of all,
Speaker 2: the political aspect of this. China controls most rare earth
Speaker 2: mineral around the world. I think they have eighty percent,
Speaker 2: which means if they stop it, stop exporting it. I mean,
Speaker 2: the world of iPhones, computers, cars just disappears because it's
Speaker 2: they're absolutely necessary to create all of that. Ukraine has
Speaker 2: a lot of this. Why the United States by treaty
Speaker 2: couldn't get all of it don't know. Well, maybe the
Speaker 2: deal is we'll support you and send you you'll you'll
Speaker 2: get arms and we get the rare earths. And if
Speaker 2: that pans out, okay, not a bad deal. We don't
Speaker 2: pay for it, well we do indirectly, but we're gonna
Speaker 2: get a lot more credit for most of the world
Speaker 2: by supply supplying Ukraine with arms than just buying rare earths.
Speaker 2: And Denmark that owns the Greenland Greenland, thank you very much.
Speaker 2: And this all Greenland has to do with all of this,
Speaker 2: Thank you very much, for that is a huge ally
Speaker 2: of the US. Because Greenland has a lot of this too.
Speaker 2: So it's it's a complicated mess as always. All right,
Speaker 2: let's do one more.
Speaker 3: All right, The Federal Grand Jury has returned a four
Speaker 3: count indictment against Luigi Mangioni, the most Italian name on
Speaker 3: the planet, the man accused, of course, in the December
Speaker 3: fourth killing of healthcare executive in man Manhattan, originally charged
Speaker 3: after his arrest in a federal complaint. But this indictment,
Speaker 3: and of course Attorney General Pam Bondi's April first announcement
Speaker 3: that the prosecutors will seek the death penalty is more
Speaker 3: aggressive and well, look at.
Speaker 2: Kind of look at the kind of support he has
Speaker 2: from women all over the countries like Ted Bundy, good
Speaker 2: looking guy demonstrations Free Luigi Freeman Gioni. I have a
Speaker 2: brilliant idea. Are you ready for this? This guy is
Speaker 2: very good looking. What if the government were to create
Speaker 2: a calendar of good looking death row inmates, oh boy,
Speaker 2: like fire department, like firefighters, and do it before and
Speaker 2: after photo. I don't buy calendars, I would I listen.
Speaker 3: This is what keeps me on the straight and narrow,
Speaker 3: because if I shot and killed somebody, my fat, ugly
Speaker 3: ass would be in prison and there would be no
Speaker 3: women cheering me on.
Speaker 2: Would there'd be a few men in your cell chearing
Speaker 2: you on and making you squeal? Okay, let's go ahead. No,
Speaker 2: you're too ugly for you even for that.
Speaker 5: From boards to bikes, people up in Big Bear get
Speaker 5: a rather historic opportunity this weekend. They could ski and
Speaker 5: mountain bike in a single day. They've got an extra
Speaker 5: long winter season, so it's the final weekend of skiing
Speaker 5: at Bear Mountain, and then Snow Valley is launching its
Speaker 5: summer season, which means that they're going to have lift
Speaker 5: served downhill, mountain biking, hiking, scenic skychair rides, and food.
Speaker 5: Somebody at Snow Valley said it's a unique chance to
Speaker 5: hit the Big Bear double.
Speaker 2: Okay. So the stores that sell skis with wheels on them,
Speaker 2: which are difficult to sell normally, they're they'ren't gonna be
Speaker 2: in good shape, right, those wheels going down the hill.
Speaker 2: I'm not a big skier, so I really don't know
Speaker 2: how you have wheels.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, you could do both, though, you could do
Speaker 3: wheels with skis on them and skis with wheels on.
Speaker 2: Them either way.
Speaker 3: Actually have some great biking trails there and at Santa's
Speaker 3: Village as well. There and gosh, right off the oat.
Speaker 2: Oh wait, I remember Santa's Village. Is that still around.
Speaker 4: It is.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, oh wow.
Speaker 2: You know they when I was a kid, they asked,
Speaker 2: have they asked me to leave? I actually got kicked
Speaker 2: out of.
Speaker 4: You were a kid, Yeah, what did you do?
Speaker 2: Well? Yeah, the little ones were getting on Santa's lap
Speaker 2: and I kept on saying, this guy is a fake,
Speaker 2: this is not real. And the parents got a little
Speaker 2: upset with that.
Speaker 3: And okay, no Jews are allowed in there.
Speaker 2: Especially the ones with oh the ones, the kids with
Speaker 2: Yamaka's He threw them right off his lap. He just said,
Speaker 2: not for you.
Speaker 3: Well, wear a red one with a little ball on
Speaker 3: the top. Nobody.
Speaker 2: Now, then you're going to a Halloween party as the pope. Okay,
Speaker 2: let's move.
Speaker 3: On all right. Hamas wants a comprehensive deal to end
Speaker 3: the war in Gaza, swap all Israeli hostages for Palestinian
Speaker 3: jailed in Israel. And this comes from a senior official
Speaker 3: from the Palestinian militant group. They said they are, but
Speaker 3: they are rejecting Israel's offer for an interim truce.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's there's gonna be no deal for a while.
Speaker 2: Israel wants all the hostages back and then we'll start talking.
Speaker 2: Hamas is willing to release the hostages if Israel permanently
Speaker 2: leaves the permanently leaves Gaza and allows Gaza to keep
Speaker 2: its arms, allowing it to still have an army, and
Speaker 2: cut a deal for reconstruction of Gaza where it's hundreds
Speaker 2: of billions of dollars that we construct Gaza and they
Speaker 2: want Israel too, Well, I guess spend more than it's
Speaker 2: an annual budget. So well, that's not gonna happen anytime soon.
Speaker 2: It'll happen, but not anytime soon, or I'm wrong and
Speaker 2: it will happen anytime soon. Damn, I'm good at this. Okay,
Speaker 2: that's analysis for you.
Speaker 5: Moving on, fire victims are fighting mad. The people who
Speaker 5: lost their homes in the Eton fire either lost them
Speaker 5: completely or had them severely damaged. Our accusing State Farm
Speaker 5: of a pattern of delays and denials in handling their claims.
Speaker 5: A group gathered in Pasadena yesterday demanding that the California
Speaker 5: Insurance Commissioner reject State farms proposed twenty two percent rate hike.
Speaker 4: One guy said, doing.
Speaker 5: This handling your claims is like having a full time job,
Speaker 5: and he said to just have the insurance company. That's
Speaker 5: really are you supposed to have your back? Completely abandon
Speaker 5: you is a living nightmare.
Speaker 2: Okay. First of all, asking an insurance company to have
Speaker 2: your back is always very difficult, and there's two issues here,
Speaker 2: and they're conflating the issues. State Farm wants twenty two
Speaker 2: percent more just to be viable to pay claims because
Speaker 2: it is so crazy out there in terms of wildfire
Speaker 2: and coverage. On the other hand, if they're delaying paying
Speaker 2: out and investigating these fires to either find out whether
Speaker 2: it's really that much damage to your home, which you
Speaker 2: have a legitimate interest in doing, and there's delay in that,
Speaker 2: then it's legitimate for the insurance commissioner to say, Okay,
Speaker 2: until you start acting appropriately, you're not going to get
Speaker 2: your twenty two percent. And so the two percent may
Speaker 2: be legit having nothing to do with their delay, just
Speaker 2: simply keeping the company viable. And I think you have
Speaker 2: to separate the two, and I don't know if they
Speaker 2: have separated the two. I think done. Guys. That's it.
