Speaker 2: With Shannon and Neil.
Speaker 3: So he'll be filling in today, which means we don't
Speaker 3: get him, which means it's going to be Amy and

Speaker 3: that one. Amy, we're getting sort of used to each
Speaker 3: other where you're calling me on stuff. You know it
Speaker 3: takes a while for newspeople. How long you been here
Speaker 3: with us? A couple of months?
Speaker 4: Well, I just celebrated one year? Is the most of
Speaker 4: wake up call?
Speaker 2: Wow? Yeah, I do think.
Speaker 5: How time flies?
Speaker 2: Right? It really does?
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 2: It's just one of those things where.
Speaker 3: Yeah, wow, you know I had people that work for
Speaker 3: me for fifteen years and I didn't know their name.
Speaker 4: Hi, I'm Amy.
Speaker 3: I know I have people that work for me. Literally,
Speaker 3: I said, haven't you you've been around for what?

Speaker 2: over a year?
Speaker 4: See, there you go, because you're over a year. Yeah,
Speaker 4: because Tyler was still here when right when I started.
Speaker 3: I think Tyler went and got a job behind the
Speaker 3: counter at a taco bell for twice the money that
Speaker 3: he was being paid here.
Speaker 6: If I'm not mistaken, I was going to follow him.
Speaker 6: Still thinking about it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that job was taken.
Speaker 3: Have you noticed at all the fast food places the
Speaker 3: Latin usually Latinez, who work at those places are completely
Speaker 3: totally bilingual, and I mean extraordinarily bilingual. And to me,
Speaker 3: bilingual is you know, Well, let me give you an example.
Speaker 3: Natanyahu who went to MIT when he speaks English, you
Speaker 3: would not think he's not an American.
Speaker 2: And when he.
Speaker 3: Speaks Hebrew, you would not think he is not Israeli.
Speaker 2: That's bilingual.
Speaker 3: And I see more and more of those people behind
Speaker 3: the counter at fast food restaurants. I really and I
Speaker 3: only admire that. I'm jealous as hell that they have
Speaker 3: they have the ability to do that.
Speaker 2: There you go. What's your last name? Cono? Cono? There
Speaker 2: you go? There you're going? What what? What ethnicity is that?
Speaker 6: I don't know. I'm jure of. My dad's a big
Speaker 6: white guy, but my mom is a little Hispanic lady.
Speaker 3: So do you speak any Spanish other than.
Speaker 2: More than kio taco? About that?
Speaker 6: Okay, I'm more like Chicano or I don't like understand
Speaker 6: a lot of Spanish.
Speaker 2: Okay, So he speaks Spanglish.
Speaker 6: Yeah, my grandma speaks Spanish. My grandpa spoke Spanish.
Speaker 2: All right, fair enough, and morning, good morning.
Speaker 3: You're just a traditional white person, your background, your.
Speaker 2: Nordic. So Hitler loved you, you were right? He didn't
Speaker 2: love you.
Speaker 3: No, he did not love me. No, he didn't. Okay,
Speaker 3: what do we have going with? You know, that's the
Speaker 3: story that we're going to do. At seven o'clock the
Speaker 3: Matthew Perry story and the rest were made. And I'm
Speaker 3: going to share with you what happened last night to me.
Speaker 3: I was at dinner at some friends we have to
Speaker 3: call him friends. That was dinner at people's houses, and
Speaker 3: the news came on about the doctor, and I'll tell
Speaker 3: you what happened. It's a good story. See that's the tease.
Speaker 3: And you have to seven o'clock. You have to watch.
Speaker 3: You have to listen to that. Okay, let's do it, guys.
Speaker 3: It is time for handle on the news and it
Speaker 3: is Amy and it is not Neil. Neil is back
Speaker 3: on Monday, is he not? When does he take the
Speaker 3: week off? I think he's due for a week off
Speaker 3: at some point.
Speaker 5: Didn't he just have a week off?
Speaker 2: I don't know if he did.
Speaker 3: I just I have no idea when Anne's looking at
Speaker 3: the calendar finding out when Neil is here?
Speaker 2: Oh? Was he here next week? I don't know? All right?
Speaker 3: And Amy, are you taking off between now now the
Speaker 3: the year you have vacations?
Speaker 5: I'm taking a couple of days off at Labor Day?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, what all of us do?
Speaker 3: Kno, you're still working here at labor day, right, yes,
Speaker 3: iron food chain issue and you're here, right, that's when
Speaker 3: you're that low on the food chain as some more money.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's right, they do give you.
Speaker 5: You get more money if you work on a holiday.
Speaker 3: Double double double, so you do match Taco bell money on. Yeah,
Speaker 3: all right, guys, let's do it handle on the news
Speaker 3: with Amy and me lead.
Speaker 2: Sorry, Well, they.
Speaker 3: Have arrested four people in connection with the killing of
Speaker 3: Johnny Walkter, h the actor former actor of General Hospital. Now,
Speaker 3: this story from CNN calls him an actor, not the
Speaker 3: star or a star of General Hospital, because you wonder
Speaker 3: if you're a star, I mean, do you end up
Speaker 3: being doing a shift at a bar? Do you know
Speaker 3: you're a bartender? And I don't.
Speaker 2: That's how crazy the showbiz is.
Speaker 5: Well, I think he still he wasn't still working on
Speaker 5: General Hospital.
Speaker 2: Well I'm assuming he's not former cast.
Speaker 3: Mean, yeah, well, if it was an iHeart production, he'd
Speaker 3: have to be a bartender for some extra money. I
Speaker 3: get that, but they don't have a television division. And anyway,
Speaker 3: so they arrested for people, and I was kind of
Speaker 3: stunned that they arrested people because these guys had hoodies
Speaker 3: on you couldn't see their faces. At first, there was
Speaker 3: no connection. They had no clues at all. And then
Speaker 3: it turned out that I guess through tips one of
Speaker 3: the guys had what what is it to tattoos on
Speaker 3: his eyeballs and his face.
Speaker 2: That'll do it, right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And they also gott fingerprints off a tire iron
Speaker 4: to help identify at least one of them.
Speaker 3: All right, So they're kind of dumb because of course
Speaker 3: there is a database fingerprints out there in the world.
Speaker 5: World eighteen and twenty two years old.
Speaker 3: Yeah, stealing a catalytic converter and then deciding to shoot
Speaker 3: the guy. Whether going to be arrested for the rest
Speaker 3: of their lives or are they're going to be in
Speaker 3: prison hopefully with the rest.
Speaker 2: Of their lives.
Speaker 4: So nothing friendly about the people arrested in Matthew Perry's death.
Speaker 4: Five people charged in the death of friends actor Matthew Perry,
Speaker 4: including his live in personal assistant, two doctors like legitimate doctors,
Speaker 4: and is alleged drug supplier who is known as the
Speaker 4: Ketamine Queen. Three of them have pleaded guilty to charges,
Speaker 4: two of them have pleaded not guilty. The Ketamine Queen's
Speaker 4: still in custody, but one of the doctors was released.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I was having a convers Well, I'm not
Speaker 3: going to tell you about my conversation that's coming up
Speaker 3: at seven o'clock.
Speaker 5: You have to stick around and listen.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because personal story about this not involving Kenemine. I
Speaker 3: might add, because it's been a while since I've done.
Speaker 4: Ke to me, just what we need, fewer car lanes,
Speaker 4: more bike lanes.
Speaker 5: Yep, they did it. They put them in along Hollywood Boulevard.
Speaker 4: LA City leaders did a ribbon cutting ceremony for the
Speaker 4: three bicyclists to dry or ride down Hollywood Boulevard two
Speaker 4: point one miles of protected bike lanes. So they took
Speaker 4: away a lane of traffic in each direction, put in
Speaker 4: bike lanes, making it wider, sidewalks, that kind of stuff.
Speaker 4: It's too make the streets safer and give residents more
Speaker 4: options to get around.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: I happen to be in favor of bike lanes because
Speaker 3: it's easier to hit bikes and run over the riders
Speaker 3: because they're concentrated. Oh, those places just what you need.
Speaker 3: And is it going to somehow do anything about traffic?
Speaker 2: Of course not.
Speaker 4: It's going to make traffic worse, of course it.
Speaker 3: Is, And all of a sudden, bike riders get a
Speaker 3: priority over drivers people in cars because naturally we have
Speaker 3: to go green with.
Speaker 2: The bike riding.
Speaker 3: And you know, it's not like Amsterdam, you know, where
Speaker 3: everybody rides bicycles.
Speaker 2: Can't even drive a car through most of Amsterdam in
Speaker 2: the downtown, downtown area.
Speaker 5: But everybody has bikes there. There's every three in la.
Speaker 3: Yeah, everybody has a bike in Amsterdam. I mean ninety
Speaker 3: year olds are buzzing around in their bicycles all right.
Speaker 4: Day two of ceasefire talks happening in Doha, Guitar mediators
Speaker 4: between Hamas and Israel are making last stitch efforts this
Speaker 4: week to revive the stalled negotiations as an Iranian attack
Speaker 4: is looming.
Speaker 3: You know, I don't know if it's going to happen
Speaker 3: real soon. And I'll tell you why. First of all,
Speaker 3: the talks Katar Egypt in the US are talking, Hamas
Speaker 3: is not and Israel is not. They're not even there
Speaker 3: when they do talk, do you know what, They're in
Speaker 3: separate rooms.
Speaker 2: They never meet each other.
Speaker 3: They are always in separate rooms, and the mediator goes
Speaker 3: back and forth and here's what's going on with Iran.
Speaker 3: They are as scared as a regional war. Do they
Speaker 3: want to get into a full scale regional war with Israel.
Speaker 3: That is a tough decision to make. And they have
Speaker 3: said we will hold off if peace talks continue, and
Speaker 3: if they can cut a deal, we're going to pull back.
Speaker 3: So now, you would have thought that the attack would
Speaker 3: have happened by now, and it didn't.
Speaker 2: Sorry, I interrupted you, Amy.
Speaker 4: No, that's okay, and it may not as the ceasefire
Speaker 4: negotiations continue, because they've also said that they'll kind of
Speaker 4: back down if there's a deal.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And but it's it's tough because Natagne who says
Speaker 3: no deal until all the hostages are returned, the Ahmas
Speaker 3: is saying no deal until Israel pulls out. And they
Speaker 3: know once the hostages are returned, all of them, that
Speaker 3: it's wide open and they have absolutely no ammunition on
Speaker 3: their side. There's nothing to negotiate with. And what the
Speaker 3: world doesn't say very much is the Palate and they're
Speaker 3: negotiating for Palestinian prisoners. Every single one of the Palestinian
Speaker 3: prisoners are there because either they committed a terrorist act
Speaker 3: or they're accused of doing whatever illegal act within Israel
Speaker 3: or the West Bank. And on the other side it's men,
Speaker 3: women and children who are held hostage, eighty year old women.
Speaker 2: Okay, moving on.
Speaker 4: It was a beautiful night, but it didn't go off
Speaker 4: without a hitch. Did you get that reference at all?
Speaker 4: He didn't, did you?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 5: Oh, it's a Bruna Mars song.
Speaker 4: Oh, I didn't start of Bruno Mars song.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 4: So Bruno Mars was at Intuit Dome for the grand
Speaker 4: opening performance of the two billion dollar dome that will
Speaker 4: eventually be home to the Clippers.
Speaker 5: And it did not go off without a hitch because.
Speaker 4: The ticketless system that they have crashed, so thousands of
Speaker 4: people are waiting in line. The show was supposed to
Speaker 4: start at eight, it actually started at ten. And then
Speaker 4: once the show did start, Bruno was singing something happened something,
Speaker 4: There was something going on in the first couple of rows.
Speaker 4: It might have been somebody in distress. Security came in
Speaker 4: took somebody away. But it's good.
Speaker 5: Take two for tonight. He's performing again tonight.
Speaker 2: See.
Speaker 3: I thought it said the Inuit Dome and it was.
Speaker 3: There'd be a statue of the most famous Eskimo leader
Speaker 3: out there.
Speaker 2: But it's not the Inuit dome, is it.
Speaker 4: No, it's the end two it.
Speaker 2: It's close Inuit into it. It's close.
Speaker 5: It's off by one letter.
Speaker 2: A big deal. Yeah, but it's a dome just like
Speaker 2: an igloo, just like it. There you are, okay.
Speaker 4: Driver's license is going digital. Californians will soon be able
Speaker 4: to add the driver license or state ID to your
Speaker 4: Apple wallet or also your Google wallet. So that's what
Speaker 4: you can show when you need to show ID. Here's
Speaker 4: the problem. You still have to carry the driver license.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you just don't have to take it out of
Speaker 3: your wallet. Can I see your ID? And usually you
Speaker 3: pull it out and then they do the what do
Speaker 3: you call it the barcode and they run it through
Speaker 3: whatever machine. Or you go to Costco and they had
Speaker 3: just that little gun that with a red light.
Speaker 5: Dude, dude, is that when you get carted when you're
Speaker 5: buying booze?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't.
Speaker 3: You go to Target and they ask for driver's license
Speaker 3: and they go, look at me, do you think I'm
Speaker 3: not twenty one? Sorry, that's what we do. And they
Speaker 3: literally you could be ninety five years old and you
Speaker 3: go to Target and they're gonna take out your driver's
Speaker 3: license and scan it.
Speaker 4: That makes you feel good when you get carted.
Speaker 3: Yea, it makes you feel stupid when you get carted.
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, fee in your thirties and your
Speaker 3: twenties and they caught you, then that's kind of neat.
Speaker 3: You know, you're especially women, you know, look younger. They
Speaker 3: kind of like that. But you know when you're in
Speaker 3: your sixties and seventies and you're falling apart and you
Speaker 3: got creepy skin, you know, on your arms, you know,
Speaker 3: you look like you're Batman with a k you know,
Speaker 3: with your cape, and which is why you don't want
Speaker 3: to wear sleeveless, especially women.
Speaker 2: Amy, I'm not going to say anything.
Speaker 5: Actually not, you already said something.
Speaker 2: No, not you. Actually you are in good shape.
Speaker 3: You really are for a woman your age.
Speaker 5: Thank you for that backhanded company.
Speaker 4: Oh you're welcome taking a bite out of the mayor
Speaker 4: of the Big Apple. New York City Mayor Eric Adams
Speaker 4: has been handed a federal grand jury subpoena. It's part
Speaker 4: of an investigation into corruption and a legal campaign donations.
Speaker 4: This has been going on the investigation anyway for months
Speaker 4: into Adams and his campaign that has focused on possible
Speaker 4: public correct corruption and foreign influence.
Speaker 3: Not good news for him unless well it's bad news
Speaker 3: no matter what. And even if it's declared innocent or
Speaker 3: they failed file charges, who was it that the supervisor
Speaker 3: where federal charges? Matter of fact, the county and the
Speaker 3: FEDS were involved in investigating Sheila Cule.
Speaker 5: They investigated her for two.
Speaker 2: Years and then they said there's nothing there.
Speaker 5: Now they didn't say there's nothing there.
Speaker 2: No, they said there's not enough. Yeah. Is she still
Speaker 2: a supervisor or is she gone already?
Speaker 5: I think she is.
Speaker 2: She retired. Do you remember? This goes back years.
Speaker 3: Ago and so you have to watch this on TV Land,
Speaker 3: the TV show TV shows of the sixties.
Speaker 2: Do you remember Dobie Gillis. Does that sound familiar at all?
Speaker 5: I know the name.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was.
Speaker 3: It's an old old TV show going back to whenever
Speaker 3: she was the star of that show.
Speaker 4: She was Zelda really yeah, because she's eighty one now
Speaker 4: yeah she oh, no, she's eighty three.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she was Zelda.
Speaker 3: So if she if it started in the fifties or
Speaker 3: the sixties, that was fifty years ago.
Speaker 2: So yeah, she was in and she looked young as hell.
Speaker 4: She was one of those she was a supervisor until
Speaker 4: twenty twenty two.
Speaker 2: By okay, thank you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's fun to watch, and boy does that date me?
Speaker 3: And that's one of those obscure facts that I have
Speaker 3: no business knowing.
Speaker 4: Jordan Child's speaking out for the first time, so she
Speaker 4: hasn't had a lot to say since she was stripped
Speaker 4: of her bronze medal at the Olympics.
Speaker 5: If you'll recall she did her performance.
Speaker 4: On the floor, Tmosa said, hey, hold on, she didn't
Speaker 4: get credit for one of the more difficult moves that
Speaker 4: she did, so they challenged it. They changed her score,
Speaker 4: She won the bronze, and then the IOC came back
Speaker 4: and said, oh, you missed the deadline to file your
Speaker 4: challenge by four seconds, so the bronze goes to the Romanian.
Speaker 3: Even worse, according to the Olympic, the US team, they
Speaker 3: could prove that it was that the dispute the challenge
Speaker 3: was put in within the minute timeline, and it doesn't matter.
Speaker 4: Right, they said, even if we have evidence, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 4: They're not going to reconsider the decision. So Jordan's coming
Speaker 4: back out and saying the decision feels unjust. She said,
Speaker 4: it's a blowout to just her, but everybody who has
Speaker 4: championed her journey. And she said that she will make
Speaker 4: every effort to make sure.
Speaker 5: That justice is done.
Speaker 2: What does that mean.
Speaker 5: That somebody gives her a bronze medal? Okay, which they should.
Speaker 3: And by the way, she shouldn't return it. Just say no,
Speaker 3: I'm keeping it.
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 5: What are they going to do? Come to the door.
Speaker 3: No, they're gonna yeah, the bronze medal police are going
Speaker 3: to show up. It's the problem is is that the IOC,
Speaker 3: the International Olympic Committee, can say no, thanks, you're not
Speaker 3: going to be at the next Olympics. You're not going
Speaker 3: to be any Iowa see event. So that's tough. Yeah,
Speaker 3: Oh she's out of.
Speaker 4: Metal surge pricing at the grocery store. So. Democratic Senators
Speaker 4: Elizabeth Warren from Massachusetts Pennsylvania's Bob Casey have sent a
Speaker 4: letter to Kroger questioning their practices of using electronic price tags.
Speaker 4: They say it raises concerns that they could adjust prices
Speaker 4: on a whim or with the electronic pricing, they could
Speaker 4: change the pricing when it got busy.
Speaker 3: They can they can't dynamic pricing. Everybody everything else going
Speaker 3: on dynamic pricing. I'm doing the story at seven twenty.
Speaker 3: And notice the operative term that you said, it can
Speaker 3: change the pricing so it becomes more expensive. This has
Speaker 3: been going on for a couple of years and a
Speaker 3: lot of stores testing, so's I'll talk more about that
Speaker 3: at seven twenty because that's a really interesting We have
Speaker 3: dynamic pricing Uber Airlines and I'll do that story at
Speaker 3: seven twenty.
Speaker 4: Could we have Wi Fi spies? The House Select Committee
Speaker 4: on the Strategic Competition between the US and Chinese Communist
Speaker 4: Parties holding a hearing on Capitol Hill. They want to
Speaker 4: look into China's TP Link Technology Company and its affiliates
Speaker 4: for potential national security risks from Wi Fi routers used,
Speaker 4: because they're saying they could use those Wi Fi routers
Speaker 4: for cyber attacks against the US.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: This is by the way, this investigation started originally when
Speaker 3: they subpoenaed Panda Express.
Speaker 2: Did you know that for their Wi Fi use?
Speaker 5: Are you making that up completely?
Speaker 4: I guess I just haven't worked long enough with you
Speaker 4: to know when you're completely lying.
Speaker 2: Oh that was a lie.
Speaker 4: It was more of a yah embellishing.
Speaker 2: Embelliching, and yutz Yeah, Okay.
Speaker 4: Being satirical. Okay, all right, you've heard of All you
Speaker 4: Can Eat. How about all you can fly whiz Airs.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're gonna go with that one. Okay, whiz Air Okay.
Speaker 4: Yeah, whiz Air has a new all you Can Fly
Speaker 4: pass which will allow unlimited flights for pass holders for
Speaker 4: a year starting on September of twenty fifth. And when
Speaker 4: you do the euro conversion, it's five hundred and forty
Speaker 4: nine dollars.
Speaker 3: Wow, isn't that great? Now, let's look at the limitations, okay,
Speaker 3: because no one can actually use it, well that's problematic. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you have to book it what two minutes in advance,
Speaker 3: so you can't plan on anything. And of course, if
Speaker 3: you want to add luggage or seating assignments priority boarding,
Speaker 3: you're gonna pay extra, but that's that's a given. And
Speaker 3: bags cost about fifty five dollars per bag, which is
Speaker 3: not unusual.
Speaker 2: It covers the entire whiz Air network, which is big.
Speaker 4: But there their plane, their airline, whiz Air.
Speaker 3: No, I don't know, I have absolutely no idea. I mean,
Speaker 3: it gets their attention. By the way, what kind of
Speaker 3: a paint job would you have? And I don't even know.
Speaker 3: I've not seen one of their planes or picture of
Speaker 3: their planes? What do you do with wiz air?
Speaker 4: I don't even want the visual on that. Yeah, you
Speaker 4: think the planes are yellow?
Speaker 2: Ooh, very strong.
Speaker 4: Russia is reacting to Ukraine's border incursion. Russia appears to
Speaker 4: have diverted several thousand troops away from Ukraine to counter
Speaker 4: the surprisingly successful Ukrainian offensive inside Russia that's been going
Speaker 4: on for more than a week now.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is surprising.
Speaker 3: I mean it's always been on Russian soil, I mean,
Speaker 3: excuse me, on Ukrainian soil. The incursion and Putin has
Speaker 3: said many many times that any attack within Russia means
Speaker 3: a nuclear war, because he said, well, we're not. Everything
Speaker 3: that we have is on the table, and when asked
Speaker 3: about nuclear war, using a nuclear device against Ukraine would
Speaker 3: be a tactical device. Obviously they're not going to make
Speaker 3: a strategic list bomb. They held out of the entire country,
Speaker 3: but they have tactical weapons, which means small scale dealing
Speaker 3: with specific locations. I mean, they're still brutal, but it's
Speaker 3: not entire cities that are wiped out with a big bomb.
Speaker 3: And so okay, you know you cross the line. Well,
Speaker 3: let's get a new line here. Any arm if any
Speaker 3: boots on the ground from any Allied means that we're
Speaker 3: at work. Okay, fair enough, which no boots are on
Speaker 3: the ground from any Allied forces. Any Allied equipment used
Speaker 3: by Ukrainians means that we are going to that crosses
Speaker 3: the line, is what he said. Well, Ukraine is full
Speaker 3: of equipment, doesn't have its own equipment, doesn't have its
Speaker 3: own tanks, you know, it doesn't manufacture any of it.
Speaker 3: And the Allies are giving it to Ukraine. And here's
Speaker 3: how America gets away with it and still complies. It's
Speaker 3: not we're not giving the weapons to Ukraine. What we're
Speaker 3: doing is supplying our allies with the weapons who they'd
Speaker 3: give it to Ukraine. And we just then order the
Speaker 3: manufacturers to refill our ammunition and our supply of these weapons.
Speaker 3: So Putin, you know, and Putin is still doubling down constantly.
Speaker 3: You know that he keeps on doubling down, doubling down.
Speaker 3: And it was one of those things where it's Selawn
Speaker 3: musk Ish, I'm gonna wake up this morning, I'm going
Speaker 3: to buy Twitter. I'm gonna go ahead and invade Ukraine.
Speaker 3: He'd always wanted to but decision was pretty quick.
Speaker 5: Okay, another reason not to eat healthy food.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 4: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued a
Speaker 4: new update on a multi state saminola outbreak that has
Speaker 4: been linked to cucumbers. Reports of sickness tied to the
Speaker 4: outbreak started back in March. The cucumbers linked to the
Speaker 4: outbreak so far have made four hundred and forty nine
Speaker 4: people across thirty one states sick. Out of three hundred
Speaker 4: and sixty that they have available information on, one hundred
Speaker 4: and twenty five people have had to go to the hospital.
Speaker 5: No one's died yet, which is good.
Speaker 3: And the two outbreaks Salmonella africana. Can you even say
Speaker 3: that is that? Isn't that considered racist today? I think
Speaker 3: it is Salmonella africana and then salmonella bray under Rup.
Speaker 2: Now what the hell is that?
Speaker 5: A different kind of seminela?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 2: I guess ray under rup.
Speaker 3: Okay, I mean I can guess Africana comes from Africa.
Speaker 2: But where is brand rup? Yeah?
Speaker 5: Don't know.
Speaker 4: Got typhus in o oh oh, that's lovely from salmonella
Speaker 4: to typhus. So the latest case is cropped up in
Speaker 4: Fountain Valley of course, Typhus is a flea born disease.
Speaker 4: It's spread by the actual flea dirt or the excrement
Speaker 4: of the fleas. So when you scratch yourself, that dirt
Speaker 4: gets into your blood stream and makes you sick. So
Speaker 4: there have been five confirmed cases of typhus in Orange
Speaker 4: County this year, the most recent as I just mentioned,
Speaker 4: in Fountain Valley, but also in Santa Anna, Anaheim and
Speaker 4: Garden Grove. And it doesn't spread person to person, but
Speaker 4: you get it from your pets, so they can carry it,
Speaker 4: and possums are a big source of it too.
Speaker 5: Of course, I don't know anybody who's petting possums.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you know, I mean there's there are
Speaker 3: a few people that have immigrated from Appalachia who you know,
Speaker 3: do a lot with possums, possum sandwich, bossom soup, soup.
Speaker 3: I understand, I understand, But yeah, I don't know anybody
Speaker 3: who deals with plossoms.
Speaker 2: I really don't.
Speaker 3: Typhus is no small joke. I mean it can be
Speaker 3: very very serious. I mean it. Did you know that
Speaker 3: willbur Wright of the Right Brothers died of typhus?
Speaker 5: I did not know that.
Speaker 2: Probably, Yeah, that's that was gerbilicious.
Speaker 3: Facts that are completely totally useless just come out of
Speaker 3: my brain. Actually, they come out of my rear end
Speaker 3: more than anything else.
Speaker 4: Okay, well, here's the fact that could be useful. A
Speaker 4: drink a day is not aoka, apparently at least not
Speaker 4: with a younger generation. A Gallup poll released this week
Speaker 4: says almost half of Americans forty five percent, say that
Speaker 4: having one or two alcoholic drinks a day is bad
Speaker 4: for a person's health. And then here's the number breakdown.
Speaker 4: Sixty five percent who say it's bad for you are
Speaker 4: under thirty five, thirty seven percent of adults thirty five
Speaker 4: to fifty fours say that it's bad, and thirty nine
Speaker 4: percent of adults fifty five and older say that a
Speaker 4: drink a day is not a good thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's big news because you would think it's
Speaker 3: the other way around, where people are drinking more and
Speaker 3: they're not. People are, especially in that age group, drink less.
Speaker 3: And mocktails are you know, ordered like crazy at bars.
Speaker 3: I like mocktails, I really do, you know, with a
Speaker 3: little umbrella you know on it and the fruit coming out.
Speaker 3: It's very gay drink. But I absolutely love mocktails. Alcohol
Speaker 3: ruins the taste of cocktails. That's true, by the way,
Speaker 3: that that isn't shtick. I don't drink. I've never I
Speaker 3: just don't like it. And it's not like I'm a
Speaker 3: teetotler or anything. It's just you know, when you're a
Speaker 3: kid and you've drink that first sip of alcohol and ooh,
Speaker 3: you have to get over that. It tastes like medicine.
Speaker 3: I've never gotten over that. And mocktails are cheaper.
Speaker 2: At least by much. Oh yeah, you know, you're right.
Speaker 3: But then they put a rot guy booze in there
Speaker 3: because there's no reason not to.
Speaker 2: I mean, think about it.
Speaker 3: Why would you put high end booze that's going to
Speaker 3: be in a drink that it's a blended drink with
Speaker 3: you know, passion fruit and guava and pineapple and whatever
Speaker 3: the hell else they put in those things. Anyway, interesting news,
Speaker 3: that's it. We're done with the news. So now we
Speaker 3: have two minutes to spin.
Speaker 2: Amy. Yes, okay, I was going to pass.
Speaker 3: You and I was gonna, you know, in the hallway
Speaker 3: and go why don't you ask me what I'm wearing?
Speaker 5: Bill, what are you wearing? We're both wearing shorts today, we.
Speaker 2: Are wearing shorts. We are absolutely wearing shorts. What color
Speaker 2: are your shorts?
Speaker 3: This is desperation time. I just want to point this
Speaker 3: out for people that are listening. This is when we're
Speaker 3: out of news and we are desperate. Minor kind of
Speaker 3: tan mine too?
Speaker 2: Wow? Look at that?
Speaker 3: What's that brown tan? A brown top you're wearing? Yep, okay,
Speaker 3: mine is sort of Oh you know what, this is
Speaker 3: actually a really expensive shirt.
Speaker 5: It's not a costco shirt.
Speaker 2: No, it isn't for me. It's no when I buy,
Speaker 2: it's not.
Speaker 4: But this could have been eighty dollars scintillating.
Speaker 5: We should take a picture and put it on social media.
Speaker 2: Lindsay bought this for me? I think, yeah, I would
Speaker 2: never spend.
Speaker 5: This blue and white floral. And if you in case
Speaker 5: you're curious, Oh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it doesn't matter. You're in radio anyway. Okay,
Speaker 3: we're done spinning. That was highly, highly entertaining.
