Speaker 1: Cam if I am six forty, It's later with Mo Kelly.
Speaker 1: We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2: And Hello November kind of snuck up on us.
Speaker 1: I hope you had a really, really safe and enjoyable
Speaker 1: Halloween evening. I was out with friends after the show
Speaker 1: last night, went up to West Hollywood, went to this
Speaker 1: place called Soho House. You're not even allowed to take
Speaker 1: care of take pictures there or anything. It's like a super
Speaker 1: secret Eyes White Shut membership party. You know, people were
Speaker 1: having sex in the corner and I felt almost uncomfortable,
Speaker 1: felt like joining in, and I said, nah, probably not
Speaker 1: a good idea little performance anxiety. Yeah, yeah that, and
Speaker 1: you know I ran into people I knew and they
Speaker 1: may tell my wife, and awkward it was. It was
Speaker 1: really awkward, you know, but it was great.
Speaker 2: It was great.
Speaker 3: You could have borrowed my red cloak from the Halloween
Speaker 3: party fit right in.
Speaker 2: No, but I hung out with some friends from college.
Speaker 1: Shout out to my Hoya Sachson brothers, Joe Pierce, who's
Speaker 1: with the Atlanta Falcons General counsel. Just want to throw
Speaker 1: that out there, so you know, the Atlanta Falcons and
Speaker 1: the Rams make it to the playoffs against each other.
Speaker 2: I need some like great seats.
Speaker 1: Joe, and also markham Stansbury, my brother from Georgetown. We
Speaker 1: were hanging out last night, just catching up and it's
Speaker 1: always good to be in the company of friends.
Speaker 2: And that's what I guess.
Speaker 1: We can say we're in the holiday season, now, can we,
Speaker 1: Because we're past Halloween, all right, so we're.
Speaker 2: Kind of been the holiday season.
Speaker 1: And it's off to a great start with the Dodgers
Speaker 1: winning the World Series. And for me, I can't say
Speaker 1: for you, but for me, this particular World Series win
Speaker 1: was really really special for a number of reasons. You
Speaker 1: may remember the Dodgers won the World Series in twenty twenty,
Speaker 1: but it was the pandemic. The Dodgers only had a
Speaker 1: sixty game regular season, that's a little more than a
Speaker 1: third of the games that they usually play. There were
Speaker 1: no fans in the playoffs. Still, there was no Dodger
Speaker 1: Stadium and no visiting games, away games. There was no
Speaker 1: real energy behind it. And I remember when the Dodgers won,
Speaker 1: I was standing, you know, in my underwear in the
Speaker 1: living room.
Speaker 2: Who was going to see me? No one was gonna
Speaker 2: see this at my wife and she doesn't care and
Speaker 2: I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Yay, the Dodgers won, and like, there's nothing to celebrate.
Speaker 1: My wife hates baseball, and it didn't feel the same.
Speaker 1: There was no parade, there was no celebration one because
Speaker 1: it felt awkward to celebrate anything.
Speaker 2: During the pandemic.
Speaker 1: Let's not forget nationally we were losing anywhere from a
Speaker 1: Cup one hundred to almost two thousand people per day,
Speaker 1: per day. We were in a different headspace. So this
Speaker 1: particular World Series meant a loe. We beat the Yankees,
Speaker 1: We beat the snot out of the Yankees. The Yankees
Speaker 1: choked it all away in Game five, and you had
Speaker 1: a different type of Dodger team that didn't care. They
Speaker 1: threw caution to the wind, they talked smack, they were
Speaker 1: dancing on the diamond, on the basis and everything, and
Speaker 1: it kind of made sense they let it all hang
Speaker 1: out for the parade.
Speaker 2: I didn't get a chance to go to the parade,
Speaker 2: but if.
Speaker 1: You didn't get to see the videos everywhere, it was,
Speaker 1: from what I can understand, a pretty good event.
Speaker 2: Not as many knuckleheads as I feared.
Speaker 1: There were some knuckleheads, and the speeches at Dodger Stadium
Speaker 1: were the best. The first voice you're gonna hear is
Speaker 1: Walker Bueller, and he kind of sets the tone and
Speaker 1: then it goes into manor Dave Roberts. It's not exactly
Speaker 1: you know, great for kids, but he said it off
Speaker 1: a couple of bombs.
Speaker 2: How do you do? Oh?
Speaker 1: And Walker Buehler, he's a pictuer who closed out the Yankees.
Speaker 1: He's a starting pitcher. He came in from the bullpen
Speaker 1: to get that save and that ninth inning he was
Speaker 1: wearing one of Oral Hirsheizer's game worn jerseys. He went
Speaker 1: to Oral Hirscheizer, who's now a member of the broadcast team,
Speaker 1: asked for a game warn jersey from the nineteen eight
Speaker 1: eighty eight World Series. So if you see the video
Speaker 1: and you'll see Walker Buehler turn around, he has to
Speaker 1: name Herscheid's on the back. That's not a replica. That
Speaker 1: is an actual Oral Hirschheizer jersey worn in the nineteen
Speaker 1: eighty eight World Series in which the Dodgers won. I
Speaker 1: just want to hear more bombs. Part of time.
Speaker 2: One on the job. This is Dave Roberts, Manager one
Speaker 2: on the job. One day.
Speaker 4: I know, guys, the day, My god, you don't want
Speaker 4: you to parade.
Speaker 2: We gotta parade.
Speaker 4: Thank you, guys.
Speaker 2: I want to thank you, thanks, I want to thank
Speaker 2: you players. I loved every single one of you.
Speaker 4: Guys.
Speaker 2: Hey, guys, let's get ready to run this sing by
Speaker 2: thank you too. Okay, alright, come up as kek Hernandez. Hey,
Speaker 2: I'll sound telling us. I really I got a question
Speaker 2: for you all?
Speaker 4: What makes this teem different from every other Dodger team.
Speaker 1: If you've been listening to the Dodger broadcast and following
Speaker 1: the team, it was a frequent refrain that we keep
Speaker 1: getting asked, what's different about this team? Why is it
Speaker 1: that they were able to overcome another team? And other
Speaker 1: Dodger teams fell short? And the answer they'd always give
Speaker 1: is usually vulgars like, we don't give it f Okay,
Speaker 1: that's the reference point.
Speaker 2: They said about me.
Speaker 4: Gosh, twenty twenty fan Fast, we got asked some really
Speaker 4: tough questions and guess what I said, twenty twenty decade,
Speaker 4: it's gonna be the La Dodger decade.
Speaker 2: I guess what, who.
Speaker 4: Lost more championships than us in the twenty twenties.
Speaker 2: I'm totally nobody, totally nobody.
Speaker 1: I mean, be fair we're still not even halfway through
Speaker 1: the decade. You know, I'm a Dodger fan at all,
Speaker 1: but I could pass basic math.
Speaker 2: And it's only twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: I mean, if it was like twenty seven or twenty
Speaker 1: twenty eight, then I'd be more confident in that statement.
Speaker 2: But you know where's I was?
Speaker 1: Cute?
Speaker 2: I sue, were you up? Cute?
Speaker 1: Give it up?
Speaker 2: Rights cute people, and be clear, they're all drunk.
Speaker 1: Every single one of them are very very ineviated at
Speaker 1: this point. Nobody's driving home on their own.
Speaker 2: Nobody. I s Q came out and gave two and
Speaker 2: whether it's performance, we didn't drunk at Nude, they started
Speaker 2: drinking like at eight am. Performance. We didn't even didn't
Speaker 2: play that game. We had already won it. There we
Speaker 2: go to New York and this guy he used to
Speaker 2: be fair, he's not fout anymore. His name is Joe.
Speaker 4: He came out of side and guess why we didn't
Speaker 4: even need to play because after that performance we had.
Speaker 2: Already won straight clowning. We want to and do you guys?
Speaker 2: We gotta play. I love your life. I love everybody
Speaker 2: And like that said, they're.
Speaker 5: Not like us er.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's the lyric to the song, but
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna quibble. Congratulations Dodgers. Congratulations, Let's do it
Speaker 1: again next year. Hopefully you won't preempt us this Later
Speaker 1: with mo Kelly, we have rain on the way and
Speaker 1: also a time change on the way.
Speaker 5: You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
Speaker 5: KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1: And this is going to be a very difficult weekend
Speaker 1: for me, a very very difficult weekend.
Speaker 2: Besides the fact.
Speaker 1: That I have four hundred and fifty three and a
Speaker 1: half people at my house right now, four hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty three point five people, and a point five is
Speaker 1: a newborn, which should count like three times because they're very,
Speaker 1: very loud.
Speaker 2: It's going to be a very.
Speaker 1: Difficult weekend because I'm going to have to deal with
Speaker 1: the rain, which is on the way and it's not
Speaker 1: staying mainly on the plane, and that's going to be
Speaker 1: an issue. And I actually am offended because it doesn't
Speaker 1: seem that Mark Ronner wanted to in any way prepare
Speaker 1: me for this.
Speaker 2: Well, it's not that I didn't want to prepare you.
Speaker 3: It's that I respect you so much that I know
Speaker 3: that you don't need my help.
Speaker 1: Well, you can't help me, but you could have at
Speaker 1: least said, moe be on the lookout, rain drops might
Speaker 1: be falling on your head.
Speaker 3: Well, I figured that is the caliber of professional that
Speaker 3: you are. You might have listened to the newscasts that
Speaker 3: I did hear several feet away from you.
Speaker 1: I would never listen to any of your newscasts. You
Speaker 1: have delusions of grandeur over there.
Speaker 3: I tell you, you know, I understand you're trying to
Speaker 3: hurt me with your words, but it's just not gonna work.
Speaker 1: Well, let me know if at least I have this
Speaker 1: correct that we may get rain as early as tonight,
Speaker 1: well into the weekend.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it should be.
Speaker 3: Over Sunday, and we'll have sun about seventy degrees on Sunday,
Speaker 3: So you got basically a day to be nervous that
Speaker 3: your makeup's gonna run.
Speaker 1: Now, I need you to be specific when you say
Speaker 1: it's into Sunday. Are we talking about no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: it'll be over Saturday. Sunday we'll have sun, but Sunday
Speaker 1: we then have to deal with the end of daylight
Speaker 1: Saving time.
Speaker 3: That's true, and I'm glad you didn't put the s
Speaker 3: on it, because so now you're not going to get
Speaker 3: a call from Chris Little.
Speaker 1: You don't know how many calls and texts from Chris
Speaker 1: Little over the years. For those who don't know, Chris
Speaker 1: Little is a stickler for certain words and phrases.
Speaker 2: Chris in this case, it's correct. No, he's correct.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying he's he's a stickler to the point
Speaker 1: of I remember the first time I said daylight savings
Speaker 1: on the air, he walked all the way down the
Speaker 1: hall from the News News into the building and said, oh,
Speaker 1: h mo, just got let you know that it's it's
Speaker 1: not pluralist daylight saving.
Speaker 2: He only walked though. He didn't sprint. No, he didn't sprint.
Speaker 1: Okay, he didn't sprind or at least I didn't see
Speaker 1: him sprint, because it seemed like it was maybe a
Speaker 1: minute or two after I said save e's and then
Speaker 1: he came down the hall and corrected me.
Speaker 2: He just materialized. Yes, that's one of.
Speaker 1: Many times we've had a back and forth about driver
Speaker 1: license and driver license. Yes, you know, whether there's a
Speaker 1: plural to that or there's an apostrophe s going back
Speaker 1: and forth. But Chris is a Stickler. Now that's only
Speaker 1: me as an air personality. When it comes to news anchors,
Speaker 1: he will call every segment, every news break with a correction. Now,
Speaker 1: Mark can't say that, but I can say that. Well,
Speaker 1: I say it correctly, or at least I do. Now, Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that one thing. But I'm saying you can never
Speaker 1: please Chris Little. Oh that's not true.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'll say the truth when it's warranted, but
Speaker 3: in this case, I think it's kind of a bum
Speaker 3: rap and it's correct to do it that way.
Speaker 1: No, it is correct. Daylight saving is correct. I'm just saying,
Speaker 1: in the kingdom of Chris Little, it's very hard to
Speaker 1: please the king.
Speaker 2: But I mean, we've all got stuff like that. You
Speaker 2: like it. You can see that.
Speaker 3: My head almost explodes when people say begging the question
Speaker 3: when it's correct to say raising question.
Speaker 2: That kind of thing. So it just it falls into
Speaker 2: that category.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but there are such a there are such things
Speaker 1: as colloquialisms. It's not necessarily either grammatically correct or rhetorically correct.
Speaker 2: It's just a colloquialism.
Speaker 1: Like, for example, a lot of people say chomping at
Speaker 1: the bit, and exactly champing at the bit yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: but so.
Speaker 2: Many people have said chomping.
Speaker 1: I don't try to correct people anymore because they say, well,
Speaker 1: you're just being a you know, an a hole justic, yes,
Speaker 1: and being pedantic. But yes I am. But I would
Speaker 1: rather you say it correctly, you know. And I think
Speaker 1: the original saying, or the correct saying is have your
Speaker 1: cake or eat it.
Speaker 3: Oh it's eat your cake and have it too. Actually
Speaker 3: take it that you can't eat it and then still
Speaker 3: have it right. But I'll tell you the one that
Speaker 3: drives me absolutely insane with rage. It's when people, especially
Speaker 3: people who claim to be Christians, talk about the Book
Speaker 3: of Revelations.
Speaker 1: There's going to be more than one. It's going to
Speaker 1: be like the matrix. They're going to destroy Zion six times.
Speaker 3: It's the Book of Revelation. One revelation. That's the book.
Speaker 3: Look at you with your Christian self. I'm just raining
Speaker 3: down all of this godly knowledge. I'm just telling you
Speaker 3: that if we don't insist on correct things when we
Speaker 3: hear mistakes, then we'll have chaos. People eating breakfast food
Speaker 3: for dinner. The world will just go down the toilet.
Speaker 1: Look, we've already had chaos, and we've had breakfast for
Speaker 1: dinner for all of my life, time, my god, and
Speaker 1: you know there's nothing you can do.
Speaker 2: Look, the world is getting ready to end anyway.
Speaker 1: To Walla Sharp took it upon himself to force this
Speaker 1: next story upon me, saying that a barrage of one
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty earthquakes rattle Death Valley, I guess over
Speaker 1: the past day or over the past month, and experts
Speaker 1: again are fearing a big earthquake is about to hit California.
Speaker 1: One hundred and thirty quakes have struck in Death Valley
Speaker 1: since October ninth, less than a month. The largest ones
Speaker 1: occurred on October twenty fifth and clocked in at four
Speaker 1: point seven and four point five magnitude. So the big one,
Speaker 1: according to geologists, just may be on the way. And
Speaker 1: I'm going to be in Washington, d C. The thirteenth
Speaker 1: through the seventeenth of this month, so hopefully it'll hit
Speaker 1: when I'm in DC. That's big of you. That's thoughtful.
Speaker 1: Isn't Survival of the fittest an okay thing? I didn't
Speaker 1: know that was a controversial concept. If you knew that
Speaker 1: put his way, people left where they lived when they
Speaker 1: knew that the hurricane was coming. Why can't I leave
Speaker 1: if I think that the earthquake is coming.
Speaker 2: Your friends and family need you, the city needs you.
Speaker 2: How about this?
Speaker 1: I will give them the same opportunity that everyone was
Speaker 1: given for the hurricane. Hey, the earthquake is coming. I
Speaker 1: think it's going to be when I'm in Washington, d C.
Speaker 1: So why don't you go ahead and leave town November thirteenth?
Speaker 1: How about it. I've done my service. I'm not trying
Speaker 1: to create a panic. I'm just saying I'm going to
Speaker 1: d C. That might be a good time to go
Speaker 1: to DC right after the election. It's like Ted Cruz
Speaker 1: heading to Cancun. Mo Kelly right there. It's not my
Speaker 1: job to save everyone. My job is to save one.
Speaker 3: Of course, those earthquakes are eventually going to hit wherever
Speaker 3: you're going.
Speaker 2: Sir, right, but they're not going to hit DC this month.
Speaker 2: That's all the bat Well, we don't know what this
Speaker 2: swarm of earthquakes is doing. We don't know what's on that.
Speaker 1: The whole point is, you gave me this article to
Speaker 1: show that there was gonna be a big one in California,
Speaker 1: not in Washington, d C.
Speaker 2: What happens in CALLI happens everywhere. That's how big we are. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but not the same month. I will I will play
Speaker 2: those percentages.
Speaker 1: I will take my chances that a huge earthquake will
Speaker 1: not hit Washington, d C.
Speaker 2: When I'm in Washington, d C.
Speaker 1: Now, whether there'll be some other unrest because of the
Speaker 1: election not going a certain way, I don't know. That's
Speaker 1: a distinct possibility too.
Speaker 2: Well. Chance favors the prepared mind. So take some kevlar.
Speaker 2: I don't know if kevlar would be enough. Yeah, really,
Speaker 2: I'm being serious. You might be right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's Later with Mo Kelly, can if I am
Speaker 1: six forty live everywhere the iHeartRadio Apple. When we come back,
Speaker 1: we have a lawsuit to tell you about, and it
Speaker 1: involves coke and PEPSI.
Speaker 2: That's all I'll tell you.
Speaker 5: You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
Speaker 5: KFI Am sixty.
Speaker 1: And remember when I told you about I'm not so
Speaker 1: sure about this whole plastic bag band. There's so much
Speaker 1: more plastic in a grocery store which could be addressed,
Speaker 1: which should be addressed, that is, if you're serious about
Speaker 1: addressing plastic and waste, and what are truly recyclable. Let
Speaker 1: me give you an example. Remember those two liter bottles
Speaker 1: I told you about that. I said, hey, why isn't
Speaker 1: somebody doing something about the two liter bottles of the
Speaker 1: of the sodas than every aisle of every grocery store. Well,
Speaker 1: today something might be done. La County has sued Pepsi
Speaker 1: and Coke. And when you say suing Pepsi and cocas
Speaker 1: all their subsidiary brands, you know, it's all of their
Speaker 1: their drinks which are connected to them. And they're accusing
Speaker 1: LA County is accusing Pepsi and Coke, accusing them of
Speaker 1: polluting this county with plastic bottles and also misleading the
Speaker 1: public about the environmental impact and recyclable nature of their containers.
Speaker 1: They're also saying that Coke and Pepsi are contributing to
Speaker 1: the plastic pollution with them being only single use, and
Speaker 1: they were engaging in this very specific campaign trying to
Speaker 1: deceive customers into believing that they were recyclable. The county
Speaker 1: contends that the plastic pollution trace to products made by
Speaker 1: the companies constitutes a public nuisance that they must be
Speaker 1: forced to redress. Coca Cola and Pepsi, according to La
Speaker 1: County should be required to pay penalties for engaging in
Speaker 1: what is seen as unfair and deceptive business practices.
Speaker 2: And I didn't even know this.
Speaker 1: I was thinking like, well, okay, La County is doing
Speaker 1: something that is not being done elsewhere.
Speaker 2: That's not true.
Speaker 1: This is the latest in a string of similar lawsuits
Speaker 1: across the country on a state at local level, and
Speaker 1: they're trying to fight against similar companies doing allegedly similar things.
Speaker 1: An appeals court in Washington, DC revived an older lawsuit
Speaker 1: filed in twenty twenty by the environmental group Earth Island Institute,
Speaker 1: accusing Coca Cola of misleading consumers into believing its business
Speaker 1: was environmentally sustainable. And there's also Pepsius fighting a plastic
Speaker 1: pollution lawsuit, which was filed by New York's attorney general
Speaker 1: last year. California's attorney general earlier in September similarly sued
Speaker 1: oil company ex Automobile, which produces polymers that are used
Speaker 1: to make single use plastic. Now, yes, you can say
Speaker 1: that there is a political aspect to this, because these
Speaker 1: are coming from I think all democratic jurisdictions, be it
Speaker 1: democratic attorney general and other democratic areas which are forwarding
Speaker 1: and fighting these lawsuits. But it does speak to what
Speaker 1: I think is a little bit more honest approach to
Speaker 1: addressing single use plastics. If you're going to give me
Speaker 1: another law about single use plastic bags and grocery stores,
Speaker 1: I think I will vomit. I don't know how many
Speaker 1: we've had over the past seven or eight years where
Speaker 1: you can't use these grocery bags, you can't use those
Speaker 1: grocery bags, you can't use these straws. It's like that's
Speaker 1: minuscule in comparison to the other plastic which is on
Speaker 1: the actual shelves.
Speaker 2: And I always raise the ire of Mark Ronner when
Speaker 2: I make.
Speaker 1: Statements like this, because I like looking at his facial expression,
Speaker 1: because I'm so you will, because when I say that
Speaker 1: I don't care about climate change, that's when I usually
Speaker 1: get your attention. And I say that because there are
Speaker 1: so many other things that I feel that I need
Speaker 1: to care about, or I don't have the bandwidth to
Speaker 1: care about everything in my life right about now. And
Speaker 1: if this country's going to go to hell in a
Speaker 1: handbasket with respect to sustainability or climate change, I will
Speaker 1: not be around to see it.
Speaker 3: I lightened point of view. The people in Valencia, Spain
Speaker 3: might have some notes for you on the subject, since
Speaker 3: they've been living in car soup the last few days.
Speaker 3: I knew I get you on the minke. In fact,
Speaker 3: I shouldn't have taken the bait. I'm I'm backing away
Speaker 3: from this because this is just too childish to be
Speaker 3: part of.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 1: No, No, I didn't say that climate change was not real.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that climate change is not important. Hear me, Mark,
Speaker 1: and anyone else who may think similarly to Mark. I'm
Speaker 1: saying I have a list of things that I can
Speaker 1: emotionally care about in a given day, in a given month,
Speaker 1: in a given life. Change is not going to be
Speaker 1: on the top ten of that list. What's above it
Speaker 1: for you?
Speaker 3: Moll?
Speaker 1: Economics, racial relations, women's rights.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean.
Speaker 1: No, no, I'm talking about care about as far as
Speaker 1: the larger world international conflict.
Speaker 2: Well, at least my young padawan. Let me inform you this.
Speaker 3: It's all connected, and if it isn't in your list
Speaker 3: of priorities now, it will be made to be on
Speaker 3: that list, probably sooner than we think, because all the
Speaker 3: information that we get from scientists shows us that it
Speaker 3: keeps happening faster than they all projected.
Speaker 2: I'm not disputing any of that.
Speaker 1: I'm saying for my sanity, my blood pressure, and my
Speaker 1: overall disposition, I cannot emotionally be concerned about all these
Speaker 1: things that I cannot conn and I will not be
Speaker 1: able to impact to any large degree in this lifetime.
Speaker 3: Well emotionally. I'm here for you, mo, I'm here for
Speaker 3: you to lean on. I got your back.
Speaker 2: Don't you ever.
Speaker 1: Think that you get to a certain point where it's
Speaker 1: like you can't care about everything?
Speaker 2: Honestly?
Speaker 3: Sometimes yeah, but it's part of being an adult. I mean,
Speaker 3: there are important things that require our attention, and you
Speaker 3: know you don't want to worry yourself into an early grave,
Speaker 3: but you got to tend to business.
Speaker 2: And I would respond this way.
Speaker 1: Part of being an adult is also making decisions and
Speaker 1: prioritizing things are which are most impactful, most important, and
Speaker 1: most urgent for you to address you personally.
Speaker 3: As an adult, I should have resisted this entire conversation.
Speaker 3: I knew I could get you in. I took the bait,
Speaker 3: and I regret it.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's look I look at going back to
Speaker 1: the story, I look at what La County is doing
Speaker 1: suing coke and PEPSI. That's fine, it's not going to
Speaker 1: change anything. I think it sick a direction in how
Speaker 1: our country may look upon the issue of climate change
Speaker 1: and how we may try to address it on a
Speaker 1: local level, not talking about our national and international legislation
Speaker 1: or anything that we may do in partnership with the
Speaker 1: rest of the world. I'm just saying that, Look, there's
Speaker 1: only so much I can care about in a given day.
Speaker 1: There's only so much I can worry about in a
Speaker 1: given day. And if we're going to be hit by
Speaker 1: a giant hurdcane tornado earthquake next week, well, you know what,
Speaker 1: there's not a damn thing I can do about it.
Speaker 1: And even if I don't buy any more plastics, there's
Speaker 1: nothing I can do about it.
Speaker 3: It's very frustrating to find out things like we have
Speaker 3: lately that say, all the recycling that we've been laboriously
Speaker 3: and religiously doing that doesn't amount to much at all.
Speaker 3: If anything, that's frustrating.
Speaker 2: It may be frustrating, but what does that tell you.
Speaker 3: Well, it's still tells me that anything that can make
Speaker 3: a difference better safe than sorry, you know, any anything
Speaker 3: that you think will help. What's it cost you to
Speaker 3: do it? Maybe a little bit of inconvenience, Okay, I'll
Speaker 3: cope with that.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I have my blue recycle bin, and I put
Speaker 1: all the stuff that I'm supposed to put in the
Speaker 1: blue recycle bin.
Speaker 2: I put it out there this morning.
Speaker 1: Because my trash and recycling is picked up on a
Speaker 1: excuse me yesterday, is picked up on a Thursday. So
Speaker 1: I do my part. I do what's expected of me.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying I am not going to go out
Speaker 1: there and protest. I'm not going to go out there
Speaker 1: and follow a lawsuit. I'm not going to go out
Speaker 1: there and try to, you know, fight for a piece
Speaker 1: of legislation that's for the next generation.
Speaker 2: Kids. Leave it for them. It seems how you're not
Speaker 2: having any kids, you know. I wonder why I'll leave
Speaker 2: it to to to.
Speaker 1: Wallace kids or maybe Stephan's kids if he gets around
Speaker 1: to them.
Speaker 2: That's big of you, and I I still really will
Speaker 2: be old man. There would be nothing for me to do.
Speaker 3: How far in the future are you planning on becoming
Speaker 3: an old man.
Speaker 1: I'm an old man now we go. But think of
Speaker 1: it this way. In twenty years, I won't be in
Speaker 1: the workforce. Okay, what is it I'm going to do
Speaker 1: at that point? I want to enjoy the rest of
Speaker 1: my life, even if the big hurricane, tornado, earthquake might
Speaker 1: descend upon my head.
Speaker 3: Well, I don't have any intention of spending the entire
Speaker 3: remainder of my life miserable either. But if you think
Speaker 3: something will help, why not do it?
Speaker 2: And here you've been recycling all this time and it
Speaker 2: hasn't helped.
Speaker 3: Actually, I had a friend to a number of years
Speaker 3: ago who just to get a reaction from me. We'd
Speaker 3: be driving in my old Mustang and he'd throw his
Speaker 3: ice cream container out the window just to see if,
Speaker 3: like my eyes would bulge and I would shriek atm
Speaker 3: or something. So you're not the only person who's tried
Speaker 3: to wind me up about it?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 1: How about this Mark? Okay, I just got a car.
Speaker 1: It's a hybrid, a hybrid. I'm reducing my carbon footprint.
Speaker 1: It's smaller now. I recycle and I have a hybrid.
Speaker 1: Are you fick it happy?
Speaker 4: Now?
Speaker 2: High? Like? Half male, half female? What kind of hybrid?
Speaker 2: Kfi am six forty? We're live everywhere the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5: You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
Speaker 5: KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you about Orange County Mayor Carol Gamble,
Speaker 1: and she served as the City of Rancho Santa Margarita
Speaker 1: as mayor and as a city council member for the
Speaker 1: past twenty years. She's well known, well respected, and this
Speaker 1: is actually pretty shocking. Today Gamble admitted to falsifying twenty
Speaker 1: signatures from registered voters, which would have allowed her to
Speaker 1: qualify as a candidate for the city council, and as
Speaker 1: a result, she pleaded guilty and is barred from office.
Speaker 1: Gamble pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor of the California Elections
Speaker 1: Code making a false affidavit concerning signatures appended to an
Speaker 1: initiative rather than felony perjury. The document that she sighed, well,
Speaker 1: you're required to sign it under penalty of perjury. So
Speaker 1: that's why she was facing the possibility of being convicted
Speaker 1: of a perjury. But with the guilty plead and the
Speaker 1: plea deal down to a misdemeanor. As a result, she
Speaker 1: will have to serve one hundred and sixty hours of
Speaker 1: community service and check this out, submit her DNA, submit
Speaker 1: her DNA, and pay restitution that will be determined after
Speaker 1: the election.
Speaker 2: This is a real question I have. It's a genuine one.
Speaker 1: Why would someone have to submit their DNA for an
Speaker 1: elections violation? I understand, you know, identification, but DNA. I
Speaker 1: understand if it was a sex offender, submit your DNA,
Speaker 1: but for one misdemeanor of making a false affidavit. How
Speaker 1: does the DNA come into this?
Speaker 2: Now, mark you you are a police reporter, for lack
Speaker 2: of a better phrase, yeah, just cop speed reporter. Okay,
Speaker 2: have you heard of this before?
Speaker 3: No, we're well into minority report.
Speaker 2: So it's just not me because this struck me.
Speaker 1: It's really really honestly, why would you be submitting your
Speaker 1: DNA as part of a plea deal for an election
Speaker 1: code violation?
Speaker 2: Did they did they mention how they'd like it submitted?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 2: Was it at high velocity?
Speaker 1: Perhaps they didn't say swab, they didn't say you'reine, They
Speaker 1: weren't specific like that in a balloon. Maybe they just
Speaker 1: said submit her DNA.
Speaker 2: It seems like a bit much, doesn't it. It just
Speaker 2: seems completely unrelated.
Speaker 1: But you know, it was a condition of the plea deal,
Speaker 1: but in her affidavit, Gamble said she witnessed the supporters
Speaker 1: signed the document. However, numerous voters who signed her paperwork
Speaker 1: told investigators that he did not witness them signing the
Speaker 1: nomination forms. So I'm unclear as to whether the people
Speaker 1: didn't exist or she just lied about having viewed and
Speaker 1: witnessed the signing of the forms.
Speaker 3: And I think this story we had this on the
Speaker 3: night of the party, and so all those details aren't
Speaker 3: clear in my head any longer. But the point remains
Speaker 3: that the DNA thing seems like a bit of overkill.
Speaker 1: It seems overkilled, and I wonder where that was the negotiation.
Speaker 1: It's like, look, if you don't give you give us
Speaker 1: your DNA, we're going to charge you with the full
Speaker 1: felony and you're going to jail.
Speaker 2: You're going to prison. That has to be somewhere in
Speaker 2: the negotiation. I mean, you don't need Philip K.
Speaker 3: Dick to see very far into the future that we're
Speaker 3: entering a phase where anytime anybody has a conviction and
Speaker 3: they have to surrender their DNA, that goes into a database.
Speaker 3: And I'm not some knowcy freak either, but it does.
Speaker 3: It does go into a database, and we hear we
Speaker 3: read in the news over and over again more and
Speaker 3: more lately about people getting caught that way, all the
Speaker 3: way across the country for something they did years ago,
Speaker 3: that there's a DNA record of them now.
Speaker 1: Or there is a partial match or a familial match
Speaker 1: which leads back to someone. This is something that you
Speaker 1: and I actually definitely completely agree on. I mean completely.
Speaker 1: This is unnerving to me where I think that for
Speaker 1: any crime having nothing to do with actually DNA related
Speaker 1: would then necessitate someone submitting their DNA that has all
Speaker 1: sorts of unintended consequences and problems that I'm not comfortable with.
Speaker 3: It's completely dystopian. And the thing is, I think we
Speaker 3: you and I love all the same shows, like all
Speaker 3: the cop shows and the and like the MI five,
Speaker 3: Secret Agent Federal agent type of shows where they use
Speaker 3: this stuff to track down bad guys. What's Mark's number
Speaker 3: one rule of technology? You don't remember, it's it's well,
Speaker 3: that's not the tech the tech rule, but that's certainly
Speaker 3: one of them.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: The rule of technology is that the very worst stuff
Speaker 3: you can imagine being done with it is guaranteed to
Speaker 3: be done.
Speaker 1: Uh, and not to you know, get too far into
Speaker 1: the star chamber. There was this recent Law and Order
Speaker 1: episode that I watched I think was Law and Order SVU,
Speaker 1: and the premise was there was a woman who because
Speaker 1: she submitted to a rape kit, her DNA was in
Speaker 1: the system, but then law enforcement used that information illegally
Speaker 1: to track her for a different cry. Totally plausible, Completely plausible,
Speaker 1: and I think about what happens. Look, I don't think
Speaker 1: my DNA is in the system. I know my fingerprint
Speaker 1: is in the system because I was fingerprinted as a
Speaker 1: portion of working with kids in the city of Carson,
Speaker 1: So that's one of the things she got to do.
Speaker 1: You have to do a drug test and you have
Speaker 1: to be fingerprinted. So I know I'm in the national data.
Speaker 1: So if I were to mess up, everyone's going to
Speaker 1: be able to find me.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: It's always used for good and all the entertainment we like,
Speaker 3: but it'll be abused, make no mistake.
Speaker 1: It's later with mo Kelly. We're live everywhere on the
Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app.
