Speaker 1: bit shaky too. Hanging out yesterday afternoon. Felt the jolt?
Speaker 1: Did you feel it? It was only at two point nine.
Speaker 1: Normally we don't even report earthquakes if they don't hit
Speaker 1: a three. But it was centered in Pasadena, and I
Speaker 1: felt a jolt at my place, so just a little one.

Speaker 6: les Mortos is not even sure I'm saying it right,
Speaker 6: but uh and it's Disney, so how can you go

Speaker 1: hour of sleep for people in forty eight of the
Speaker 1: fifty states. Only Hawaii and Arizona don't observe the change
Speaker 1: in time. California has been talking about ending the time change,
Speaker 1: but so far hasn't decided to make daylight Saving time permanent.
Speaker 1: At six o five, it's handled on the news. The
Speaker 1: Fed lowered interest rates, but mortgage rates have gone up
Speaker 1: for the fifth week in a row.
Speaker 5: It's up with that.
Speaker 1: Let's get started with some of the stories coming out
Speaker 1: of the KFI twenty four hour news room. More than
Speaker 1: one hundred thousand people are expected to head to downtown
Speaker 1: La this morning to celebrate the Dodgers World Series win
Speaker 1: over the New York Yankees. LAPD Commander Steve Lurie says
Speaker 1: the expectations are that it will be a safe, family
Speaker 1: friendly event. Lurie says, well, he foresees large crowds, he
Speaker 1: believes they will be peaceful. The Fire Department and Sheriff's

Speaker 7: keep control while at gunpoint, allowing some to escape and
Speaker 7: alerting bystanders to call police. He says those passengers safety
Speaker 7: was top of mind for him.
Speaker 5: For me, lives are super important. Have actually over everything material.
Speaker 5: It's what mattered the most to me.
Speaker 7: The Metro Board bestowed the award on Contreras yesterday. Lamont
Speaker 7: Campbell faces murder and other charges in connection with that
Speaker 7: hijacking in downtown La. Michael Monks KFI News.
Speaker 1: Boeing is making a new offer to its thirty three
Speaker 1: thousand striking machinists who've stopped production of its jets. Alex
Speaker 1: Stone says if the machinist's agree to terms of the
Speaker 1: company's latest offer, the strike could end Monday.
Speaker 8: That's a day the workers will vote on it. The
Speaker 8: new offer would give them a thirty eight percent pay
Speaker 8: raise over four years and a twelve thousand dollars ratification bonus.
Speaker 8: The union is recommending members vote for it.
Speaker 5: He says.
Speaker 1: The main sticking point is the worker's pension, which was
Speaker 1: done away with ten years ago, something Boeing says is
Speaker 1: non negotiable. Actress Jennifer Lopez has campaigned with Vice President
Speaker 1: Harrison Nevada. Lopez told the crowd, they're the ones who
Speaker 1: are going to send the message that Nevada is Harris Country.
Speaker 9: Aamala Harris is running for the people who dream, for
Speaker 9: the parents working overtime, the kids studying by street light,
Speaker 9: the teenagers practicing in the basement.
Speaker 1: Lopez also said during the Yesterday that former President Trump's
Speaker 1: campaign offended every Latino in the US with his rally
Speaker 1: at Madison Square Garden on Sunday. She was referencing the
Speaker 1: comment made by a comedian who called Puerto Rico a
Speaker 1: floating island of garbage. Vice President Harris surrogate Mark Cuban
Speaker 1: is taking fire for comments he made on the view.
Speaker 1: The billionaire entrepreneur claimed that Donald Trump is never around strong,
Speaker 1: intelligent women. The Trump campaign called the words extremely insulting
Speaker 1: to the thousands of women who work for President Trump
Speaker 1: and women who are voting for him. The war of
Speaker 1: wards continues. Isn't it fun? Only four days left? Let's
Speaker 1: say good morning now to senior elections analyst with ABC
Speaker 1: News and five thirty eight, Jeffrey Scaley, Good.
Speaker 5: Morning, Jeffrey, Hey, good morning. So it's kind of hard.
Speaker 1: For us to admit this in California, but we're irrelevant
Speaker 1: in this election. But on the other side of the country, Pennsylvania,
Speaker 1: on the other hand, is arguably the most relevant state
Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty four presidential race.
Speaker 4: Tell us why, sure, Well, first, California is not irrelevant.
Speaker 4: It's very important actually to the Democrats' chances of winning.
Speaker 4: If you know, if Republicans won California, that would be
Speaker 4: a that'd be a huge event. But it is very important,
Speaker 4: very important in the House race as well, a lot
Speaker 4: of very important races for the US House representatives. But
Speaker 4: Pennsylvania and the presidential race is the most important state.
Speaker 4: In about one in four of our forecast simulations. Pennsylvania
Speaker 4: is the tipping point state, which is to say, the
Speaker 4: one that decides the election, or basically the state that
Speaker 4: gives the winner the magic two hundred and seventieth electual vote.
Speaker 4: So if you're sort of looking at the past the
Speaker 4: victory for both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, for both
Speaker 4: of them, it's sort of like, well, if you win Pennsylvania,
Speaker 4: this gets a lot easier. So that's that's the big thing.
Speaker 4: In npoles, they are very close. Trump's up by about
Speaker 4: a half percentage point our polling average there, so it's
Speaker 4: very tight. A lot of polls showing a tied race
Speaker 4: in Pennsylvania, so it's very much on a knife edge.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's interesting just watching all of the different polls.
Speaker 1: I just've been watching abc NN and Fox and everybody,
Speaker 1: and there it's just so close everywhere with if anybody
Speaker 1: is ahead, it's by like one point or maybe two points.
Speaker 1: But that's all within the margin of error, right.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 4: I mean, that's the thing is that we have all
Speaker 4: this collective data that's just showing a very tight race,
Speaker 4: and so in a lot of cases the we could
Speaker 4: expect it to be a very close election. I do
Speaker 4: think it is worth remembering, however, that there always is
Speaker 4: some degree of polling error, and if there, you know,
Speaker 4: if it happens to be to tend to be in
Speaker 4: one direction. You know, for instance, we saw in twenty
Speaker 4: sixteen and twenty twenty polling air was sort of over
Speaker 4: stated Democrats. So Trump bit better than expected in both
Speaker 4: of those elections some extent. So it's a sort of
Speaker 4: Republican benefit from the air. In twenty twelve, Obama outperformed
Speaker 4: his polls, so the error was sort of in a
Speaker 4: Democratic direction. Depending on how it pans out this time,
Speaker 4: you know, if it's consistent in its direction, that could
Speaker 4: end up leaving one of the candidates to win by
Speaker 4: maybe a more comfortable margin than it looks like. Maybe
Speaker 4: they win most of the swing states and so then
Speaker 4: the electoral College at least the margin is greater than
Speaker 4: it looks right now. But it also could be one
Speaker 4: of these rare elections where things really do come down
Speaker 4: to like one state, and that is a rare occurrence
Speaker 4: two thousand and four, two thousand, of the only two
Speaker 4: times in the last one hundred years that an election
Speaker 4: has been decided basically because one state went one way
Speaker 4: two thousand. Obviously famously Florida two thousand and four, Ohio,
Speaker 4: if John Kerry had won and he actually would have
Speaker 4: won the election, so it's you know, we could be
Speaker 4: headed for a photo finish in that way.
Speaker 1: And in Pennsylvania, which is considered this this so important state,
Speaker 1: are we expecting to know what the outcome of the
Speaker 1: election is on election night or is it going to
Speaker 1: be a couple of weeks?
Speaker 4: So I think obviously twenty twenty is fresh on people's
Speaker 4: minds for many reasons, but the experience of the counting
Speaker 4: process and how long that took, and obviously so many
Speaker 4: people voting by mail in the middle of the pandemic.
Speaker 4: This time around, you know, I think you're not going
Speaker 4: to have as much male voting vote by mail in Pennsylvania,
Speaker 4: and as to t voting, because you can it's just
Speaker 4: easier go vote in person this time around. That said,
Speaker 4: more people will be using it maybe than they did
Speaker 4: in say twenty sixteen. So I think there is a
Speaker 4: chance that we could have an idea of what the
Speaker 4: outcome is on the on Tuesday night in Pennsylvania or
Speaker 4: very early Wednesday morning, I guess. But at the same time,
Speaker 4: if it's very tight, which you know, the pull suggests, yeah,
Speaker 4: it could be a while as they as they count
Speaker 4: a provisional votes, as they they may you know, go
Speaker 4: back over things. I mean, you could even have a
Speaker 4: recount situation. I mean, you can't rule any of that
Speaker 4: stuff out. So I don't think it's going to be
Speaker 4: quite twenty twenty, but I do think there's good reasons.
Speaker 4: I think we won't know the winner necessarily on Tuesday.
Speaker 1: Night, and has polling changed, Jeffrey to try to accommodate
Speaker 1: for how far off they were, like in twenty sixteen
Speaker 1: and even in twenty twenty, are they changing who they
Speaker 1: contact or the questions they ask or do you just
Speaker 1: kind of say we're doing our best.
Speaker 4: Well, there's certainly been a lot of changes made by polsters.
Speaker 4: You know, it's interesting, actually the error that they saw
Speaker 4: in twenty sixteen was a little different from the error
Speaker 4: they saw in twenty twenty, and so you know, in
Speaker 4: twenty sixteen, there were sort of late deciders were a
Speaker 4: big part of it. In twenty twenty, though, there was
Speaker 4: a clear sort of missing Trump supporters, and not because
Speaker 4: they're shy, which is a common misconception, but just because
Speaker 4: of the nature of who was more likely respond to
Speaker 4: polls at that particular time, and there was Trump supporters
Speaker 4: were just notably consistently less likely across a number of
Speaker 4: different groups, and that ended up impacting the polling numbers
Speaker 4: this time around. You know, polsters are just basically trying
Speaker 4: to do a better job of getting a really good
Speaker 4: sample to start with, and that just has involved a
Speaker 4: number of changes to their methodology, how they recruit people
Speaker 4: or panel samples for example, for things like what the
Speaker 4: CNN uses with the SSRs. So it's it's I mean,
Speaker 4: it's kind of an ongoing struggle, right, but the Polsters,
Speaker 4: in my opinion at least, have made have made a
Speaker 4: concerted effort to try to improve their sampling techniques in
Speaker 4: order to sort of have a better starting place before
Speaker 4: they start waiting, so that the sample looks more like
Speaker 4: the country as a whole.
Speaker 5: Well, and we'll know in just a few days whether
Speaker 5: they were successful.
Speaker 4: Right, exactly exactly. I mean, look, there's always some polling
Speaker 4: error that's inevitable, but it's a question of how much.
Speaker 5: And in what direction, and we'll be watching it.
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Skelley with ABC News and five point thirty eight,
Speaker 1: thank you so much for your information.
Speaker 5: We appreciate it.
Speaker 4: Hey, thank you for having me.
Speaker 5: All right, let's get.

Speaker 1: other ceremonies. It is illegal to buy or sell eagle
Speaker 1: feathers or other parts of the bird. A man in
Speaker 1: New York is pleading with state officials to return his
Speaker 1: pets squirrel that was seized during a raid. Peanut is
Speaker 1: a rescued squirrel with hundreds of thousands of followers across
Speaker 1: his multiple social media platforms.
Speaker 10: Take Peanut away from my family is not only heart wrenching,
Speaker 10: but then you take it away from the organization that
Speaker 10: solely gets its funding from social media that requires Peanut
Speaker 10: to get that funding.
Speaker 1: Owner Mark Longo says he runs a sanctuary that houses horses, goats,
Speaker 1: and alpacas. Peanut was taken by the state Department of
Speaker 1: Environmental Conservation on Wednesday over concerns that the squirrel.
Speaker 5: Could carry rabies.
Speaker 1: When we come back, trying to think of anything to
Speaker 1: say about that, but come on, give Peanut a break.
Speaker 1: Former Orange County supervisor Andrew Doe has pleaded guilty to
Speaker 1: a federal bribery charge. He admitted that in twenty twenty

Speaker 1: closure of Highway three thirty runs from Highland Avenue to
Speaker 1: Live Oak Drive. Travelers are being advised to use Highway
Speaker 1: thirty eight from Redlands or Highway eighteen from Lucerne Valley
Speaker 1: as alternates. Let's say good morning now to ABC's Jim Ryan. Jim,
Speaker 1: almost all Americans are going to change this weekend. We
Speaker 1: spring this, we spring forward, and then we fall back.
Speaker 11: Yes, and we're falling back now fall back? And where
Speaker 11: are they not changing the clots.
Speaker 1: The clocks Arizona and Hawaii Boom. You win the price
Speaker 1: only because I just did a story about it about
Speaker 1: twenty seconds ago.
Speaker 11: Oh right, So Yeah, the clocks change back, and in
Speaker 11: most cases, obviously they change themselves back, don't they. Your
Speaker 11: Apple watch, your Samsung, you watch, whatever, you're android, They're
Speaker 11: all going to change themselves. There may be a clock
Speaker 11: or two around the house that you have to go
Speaker 11: over and change and pull back an hour. But yeah,
Speaker 11: that's only part of it. Changing your sleep schedule a bit.
Speaker 11: You know you're going to gain an hour of sleep potentially,
Speaker 11: but you're really the best advice from doctors is that
Speaker 11: you need to adjust your sleep schedule to match what
Speaker 11: you're seeing on the clock. Right, because your schedule, your
Speaker 11: get to work schedule is the same, You're going to
Speaker 11: bed schedule should be about the same, and so it's
Speaker 11: best to adjust yourself to match what's going on around you,
Speaker 11: including the time change. So you know, get to bed
Speaker 11: half an hour earlier tonight if you can, and then
Speaker 11: maybe half an hour earlier than that Tomorrow night. Yes,
Speaker 11: it's Friday and Saturday, but by the time Saturday night
Speaker 11: Sunday morning at two o'clock comes around, your body should
Speaker 11: be used to it.
Speaker 1: And falling back is usually easier easier than springing forward.
Speaker 11: Correct, Yeah, I mean springing forward. You're losing an hour
Speaker 11: of sleep, and if you're already sleep deprived, that can
Speaker 11: be a major problem.
Speaker 5: But the is and who of us isn't right?
Speaker 11: I know exactly, that's a big problem. And also your
Speaker 11: internal body clock knows what time it is. Anyway, this morning,
Speaker 11: you know, I woke up at two forty two and
Speaker 11: I said to myself, you know what, my clock's going
Speaker 11: to go My arm's going to go off in three minutes.
Speaker 11: I looked at my watch. Sure enough it was about
Speaker 11: to go off. That internal clock. Who's what time it is?
Speaker 1: I do the same thing, I because I get up
Speaker 1: at two thirty and I think it was two twenty
Speaker 1: four this morning.
Speaker 5: I opened my eyes and went, what time is it?
Speaker 5: It's almost that, It's almost that time.
Speaker 11: And you look forward to it. Don't you come bounding
Speaker 11: out of bed and say, let's face another day.
Speaker 5: No, I'm like, leave me alone in six more minutes.
Speaker 11: These are hours can't be good for people, can they?
Speaker 11: Two thirty in the morning, two forty five in the
Speaker 11: morning getting up? And yeah, you know who says? Anyway,
Speaker 11: But so getting to bed a little earlier tonight and
Speaker 11: tomorrow night should help your body to adjust. Try to
Speaker 11: get some daylight in your life, you know, because we're
Speaker 11: going to be missing that not only pulling the clouds back,
Speaker 11: but wintertime means that the days are getting older anyway,
Speaker 11: So the advice from doctors is to prioritize solar exposure,
Speaker 11: get some sun, get some vitamin billion exposure.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, like that.
Speaker 1: Just just go sit out on the patio for ten
Speaker 1: minutes and have your morning coffee.
Speaker 11: Nice right, that sounds pleasant.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, So adjust your schedule now so we're ready
Speaker 1: for it for the weekend. And if you don't, I
Speaker 1: mean it's only an hour, but it can be dangerous
Speaker 1: to your health.
Speaker 11: Well, it can be, you know. Again, it's potentially more
Speaker 11: dangerous in the springtime. That's when we see after the
Speaker 11: time change, when we spring forward, more car accidents and
Speaker 11: heart attacks and other health issues related to the time
Speaker 11: change itself. But yeah, there are potential side effects. But
Speaker 11: trying to maintain your eating schedule, getting some exercise. Everybody
Speaker 11: should be doing that anyway. Interestingly, yeah, there was a
Speaker 11: Moment University poll that came out a couple of years ago,
Speaker 11: and it found that sixteen sixty one percent of Americans
Speaker 11: would do away with the twice a year time change
Speaker 11: if they could, Well.
Speaker 1: California keeps talking about it, but we don't do it,
Speaker 1: And I just I also was watching on TV this
Speaker 1: morning where they said that nationally they've been trying to
Speaker 1: get rid of it.
Speaker 5: What's the big deal. I don't understand what the big
Speaker 5: deal is.
Speaker 11: Well, it comes up in Congress every session essentially, I
Speaker 11: think somebody brings it up and says, you know what,
Speaker 11: let's go ahead and do away with the time change.
Speaker 11: And they debate and they argue, and they move on
Speaker 11: to other priorities. It's kind of low priority anyway, I
Speaker 11: think for a lot of folks, and then they, you know,
Speaker 11: they drop it, and we go back to changing the
Speaker 11: clocks forward and back twice a year. So it just
Speaker 11: it never gets very far. Legislative efforts to try to
Speaker 11: change the time change.
Speaker 5: Well, then I think we just need to quit complaining
Speaker 5: about it. If nobody's going to do anything that.
Speaker 11: Yourself ready and prepare for the time change.
Speaker 5: Okay, guess I'm going to go to bed at six
Speaker 5: o'clock tonight. Good for you.
Speaker 1: No, I'm not. I'm not okay Friday exactly, Jim Ryan,
Speaker 1: thank you so much. Hope you had a g great Halloween.
Speaker 11: Yeah you too, see Amy, all right.
Speaker 1: Drivers in LA are going to be getting warnings for
Speaker 1: the next sixty days if they park in bus only

Speaker 1: Boulevard and Labria Avenue. After six sixty days, there will
Speaker 1: no longer be warnings, but citations will be issued for
Speaker 1: bus line of bus lane violations, and they start at
Speaker 1: almost three hundred dollars. The Vincent Thomas Bridge over the
Speaker 1: La Harbor is going to be shutting down for more
Speaker 1: than a year.
Speaker 12: The bridge is deteriorating and needs critical deck repairs. Longshoreman
Speaker 12: James Gillish says it would be a good idea to
Speaker 12: have truckers go through Terminal Island using the seven ten
Speaker 12: freeway once repairs start.
Speaker 11: That we would alleviate alleviate a lot of pollution in
Speaker 11: our residential areas.
Speaker 12: Once construction starts in late twenty twenty five or early
Speaker 12: twenty twenty six, the entire bridge will shut down to
Speaker 12: replace the bridge deck and its seismic sensors. Councilman Tim

Speaker 1: House subcommittees accused former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo of
Speaker 1: making criminally false statements about the state's COVID nineteen response.
Speaker 1: Cuomo has denied being involved in the drafting or editing
Speaker 1: of a report on New York's nursing home deaths, but
Speaker 1: his handwriting is apparently in the margins of a draft report.

Speaker 1: directive that initially required nursing homes to readmit recovering COVID
Speaker 1: patients to help hospitals that were being overwhelmed. In Spain,

Speaker 13: the city for any signs of survivors conducting hundreds of rescues.
Speaker 1: Officials in Spain say at least two hundred five people
Speaker 1: have been killed in the flash floods, and the death
Speaker 1: toll could go higher. A new poll shows nearly half
Speaker 1: of gen Z voters say they've lied about their political
Speaker 1: preferences to people close to them. The survey by market
Speaker 1: research and analytics company The Harris Poll finds that gen
Speaker 1: Zers are more sent to perceived social pressure and judgment

Speaker 5: detail free, aren't you.
Speaker 15: Yes, I am.
Speaker 5: And that's a good thing we all need to be.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 15: Well, probably not in every area of life, but when
Speaker 15: it comes to trying to alter your home and make
Speaker 15: the biggest transformation possible. I usually get on people to
Speaker 15: get more tuned into the details because it's not only
Speaker 15: is it almost universally the sign of a really really
Speaker 15: great design. In other words, when you you know, you
Speaker 15: walk into a place, let's think you walk into a hotel, right,
Speaker 15: and it's just all the little things. It's all the
Speaker 15: little things that really send you over the top. But
Speaker 15: the other reason details are so great is because details
Speaker 15: are usually like the least expensive thing that you can
Speaker 15: do to your home, and if you do enough layers
Speaker 15: of them, they really haven't been a big impact on
Speaker 15: everybody's vibe in your home without having a big impact
Speaker 15: on your wallet exactly.
Speaker 1: Okay, so you're going to be talking about this this
Speaker 1: weekend during your show from six to eight on Saturday,
Speaker 1: nine to noon on Sunday.
Speaker 5: So we want to just touch on a couple of
Speaker 5: the details.
Speaker 1: One, when you're doing some upgrading and remodeling, you tend
Speaker 1: to do the big things, but you said that since
Speaker 1: the details matter, you've got to remember to do the
Speaker 1: little things too, Like that you say are utilitarian fixtures.
Speaker 15: Yeah, okay, so people obsess over lights lamps that they're
Speaker 15: going to buy things like that, but we forget about
Speaker 15: things like switches and lamp cords and electrical outlets, and
Speaker 15: people are like, wait, now, I'm not talking about the
Speaker 15: ones that you don't see, the ones that are behind furniture,
Speaker 15: but the ones that are out in the open. This
Speaker 15: is an opportunity. It's an opportunity to take your style,
Speaker 15: whatever it is you're going for in the house and
Speaker 15: just push it one more little bit. There are so many,
Speaker 15: for instance, electrical outlet outlet and switchblade covers out there,
Speaker 15: styles of them that just send the story over the top.
Speaker 15: Our house is, you know, a perfect example. We've got
Speaker 15: this little early nineteen twenties vibe going on inside our home.
Speaker 15: And so when we did our last remodel here, we
Speaker 15: changed out almost all of the electrical switches, especially the
Speaker 15: most important ones to push button switches, the kind of
Speaker 15: old world you know, buttons that click on and off
Speaker 15: with a little mother of in the center.
Speaker 5: Of the button.
Speaker 15: Nothing new, I say push button. You're like, oh, that
Speaker 15: sounds very advanced. Now I'm talking about the old, old style.
Speaker 15: But there are companies that make brand new You don't
Speaker 15: have to go buy a hundred year old electrical switch
Speaker 15: and you know, worry about it burning out or something.
Speaker 15: There are companies that make brand new, cutting edge code
Speaker 15: approve dimmable electrical switches that look like they came out
Speaker 15: of one hundred year old house and they're brand new,
Speaker 15: and it's what five ten dollars more than a regular
Speaker 15: electrical switch. But in the end, what it does that
Speaker 15: makes this impact because as people reach to just turn
Speaker 15: on the light in the room, they think, oh my gosh,
Speaker 15: every detail of this home is going in this direction.
Speaker 15: It just feels wonderful. And that's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 15: That kind of thing. Lamps, same thing. If you've got
Speaker 15: a lamp in which the cord is going to be exposed,
Speaker 15: it's laying on the floor, or it's visible in the
Speaker 15: room somehow. Then consider what the cord looks like the lamp.
Speaker 15: But you know, instead of having a cheesy, regular old
Speaker 15: plastic cord, you can get cloth covered cords. You can
Speaker 15: get cloth sheaths to cover that cord. So that I
Speaker 15: hate is vibing? Yeah, I do too, I'm I you know,
Speaker 15: And I don't mind a cord being exposed as long
Speaker 15: as it's carrying on the story of the house.
Speaker 1: Okay, so the story is important, the details are important.
Speaker 1: And then uh, we're also you're not only talking about
Speaker 1: remodeling in the house, but also the details of decorating
Speaker 1: your house.
Speaker 5: And I love this and I totally agree with you.
Speaker 1: You say no props, no props in your house, and
Speaker 1: I firmly believe this. Like when I have pictures that
Speaker 1: hang around the apartment, they have to mean something. There's
Speaker 1: got to be a reason for one, not just because
Speaker 1: it's a cool piece of art. It has to have
Speaker 1: some sort of connection to me.
Speaker 15: Yeah, And you know, there was a time in my
Speaker 15: career when I was insecure enough as a designer, or
Speaker 15: when when you know, one of our wealthier clients would say, well,
Speaker 15: I want you to build us a library, and I'm like,
Speaker 15: all right, show me the books. And they're like, well,
Speaker 15: we don't have that many books, but you're gonna get
Speaker 15: us books and then we'll have a library. And I
Speaker 15: would have and I just nodded and said, okay, yeah,
Speaker 15: And I believe me, I've built some amazing libraries. Now
Speaker 15: now that i've you know, for a long time, have
Speaker 15: come into my own, I'll just look at a client
Speaker 15: and say, if you've got books, I'll build a library
Speaker 15: around your books. But they've got to be your books,
Speaker 15: your book And I strongly believe in that. I don't
Speaker 15: want you to waste time in your home trying to
Speaker 15: be something, to show something somebody else, something that you're not.
Speaker 15: No props. Every item on display in your home should
Speaker 15: have meaning. No books that you can't pick up and
Speaker 15: talk about. Don't display anything that doesn't have a story
Speaker 15: behind it. Here's one of the best quotes ever given
Speaker 15: in the design world, and it's this by William Morris,
Speaker 15: a very famous famous text designer in the late eighteen hundreds.
Speaker 15: Have nothing in your house that you do not know
Speaker 15: to be useful or believe to be beautiful. Period.
Speaker 3: That's it.
Speaker 15: That's how you make the decision of what stays and
Speaker 15: what goes.
Speaker 5: I love that. Okay, great.
Speaker 1: So for more useful and beautiful information, be sure to
Speaker 1: tune into Home with Dean Sharp this weekend from six
Speaker 1: to eight am on Saturday and from nine to noon
Speaker 1: on Sunday. You can also follow him at Home with Dean.

Speaker 5: It's in the details, Dean. It's all in the details.
Speaker 5: Thank you, Dean.

Speaker 4: This is not something that we would do on a
Speaker 4: year over year basis.
Speaker 11: This would be short term depth.
Speaker 13: We would pay off as soon as we could.
Speaker 7: Zabo says further, the city will have to keep its
Speaker 7: hiring focus solely on critical roles and that city departments
Speaker 7: will have to dig around for any extra money in
Speaker 7: their budgets in order to get the city back on
Speaker 7: track financially.
Speaker 4: In downtown La.

Speaker 1: Drivers in La are getting a sixty day warning period

Speaker 1: now to ABC's entertainment guy, Willgans.
Speaker 3: Good morning, Well, good morning, Amy, the entertainment guy. I
Speaker 3: like that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I think I saw Martha Stewart at the
Speaker 5: World Series. But that's not the only place you're going
Speaker 5: to be seeing her.
Speaker 3: No, she is having a moment in the spotlight again.
Speaker 3: This week. There's a brand new documentary out on Netflix.
Speaker 3: It's called Martha, and it is really like an incredible
Speaker 3: behind the scenes look at her from her childhood to
Speaker 3: her days as a model, to her days as a
Speaker 3: finance person. Uh, and then of course to what we
Speaker 3: sort of know her as now, which is, you know,
Speaker 3: the guru of all things domestic And yeah, it definitely
Speaker 3: gets into her infamous fall from Grace, and you know,
Speaker 3: she has had a lot to say about this. She
Speaker 3: gave a lot of access and now she has some
Speaker 3: stronger opinions that she's sort of like, well, I don't
Speaker 3: really love the last scenes of the movie or you know,
Speaker 3: so it's a really interesting and I think, honest, look
Speaker 3: at you know, one of the most famous women in America.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and is does Snoop make an appearance in it?
Speaker 13: Oh?
Speaker 3: You know he does, Yes, he does.
Speaker 5: Friendship is so interesting.
Speaker 3: But you know they talk about how that was sort
Speaker 3: of like very strategic and really helped rehabilitate her image
Speaker 3: after her time in prison. So you know, it looks
Speaker 3: at all of that stuff.
Speaker 5: Okay, and where is that on on Netflix?
Speaker 3: Netflix? Yes?
Speaker 5: And it's just it's a movie, so it's not a
Speaker 5: series exactly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just one and done. So it's you know,
Speaker 3: under two hours and done.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, speaking of a good one and done.
Speaker 1: We we talked about it on a feature on Amy's
Speaker 1: on It this week that the Women of the or
Speaker 1: Woman of the Hour that you talked about last week.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, creepy.
Speaker 3: Creepy and just like good, really eye opening look at, Like,
Speaker 3: you know, some of these serial killers were not geniuses
Speaker 3: that you know, did a whole bunch of crazy maneuvering
Speaker 3: to get around. It's just that there were so many
Speaker 3: obstacles in place for these women to be believed and
Speaker 3: listened to. So, you know, I think it's like a
Speaker 3: pretty incredible you know, look at you know a lot
Speaker 3: of those serial killers at the time that were sort
Speaker 3: of getting away with things simply because you know, the
Speaker 3: odds were stacked against the women who were reporting them.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So, if you haven't seen it, Woman of the Hour,
Speaker 1: very unsettling and unnerving, but really interesting and good and
Speaker 1: based on a true story too.
Speaker 5: Yes, okay, go ahead.
Speaker 3: Another good one out this week and this is available
Speaker 3: to stream now. I saw it in theaters a couple
Speaker 3: of weeks ago. It's called Lee, and it's about one
Speaker 3: of the first female war correspondents. She took photos for
Speaker 3: Vogue during World War Two. It's now out on Amazon
Speaker 3: and Kate Winslet plays the lead character. She plays Lee.
Speaker 3: But the thing that I didn't realize is like, and
Speaker 3: they kind of reveal this to you at the end credits,
Speaker 3: Like so many of the scenes in the movie as
Speaker 3: you watch them are like shot for shot recreations of
Speaker 3: some of the photos that she took. So it sort
Speaker 3: of gives you the backstory of, like, you know this photo,
Speaker 3: and here's how it came to be, and like even
Speaker 3: if you don't know the photo, just kind of keep
Speaker 3: that in the back of your mind as you're watching
Speaker 3: the movie. It's like, you know, pretty remarkable how they
Speaker 3: were able to really recreate some of these iconic images
Speaker 3: from World War Two.
Speaker 1: Okay, And so that was just in movie theaters and
Speaker 1: it's already stream.
Speaker 5: Is it a good movie?
Speaker 3: It's yes, it's good. And if you like historical sort
Speaker 3: of genre films like that, then yes, you'll like this one.
Speaker 3: It's you know, it's it's pretty remarkable how you know
Speaker 3: journalists back then had to operate, and in particular female journalists.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I always think stuff related to World War Two is
Speaker 1: so fascinating. Okay, So Kono loves only Murders in the Building.
Speaker 1: It's on my list to be my next big binge.

Speaker 3: my recommendations of why to watch only murders. Acting okay, perfect, perfect,
Speaker 3: Thanks for keeping me on track. The acting is incredible
Speaker 3: and season four just wrapped up, so if you are

Speaker 1: getting into it now and going, oh, yeah, this is
Speaker 1: this is kind of good.

Speaker 3: a whole nother level.
Speaker 4: They're just so great.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's I mean, it's about murder, but it's fun,
Speaker 1: and I think we need fun, especially when there's movies
Speaker 1: like Woman of the Hour out there that's just going.
Speaker 5: To creep it out. Yeah, this is a clean yeah exactly.
