00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:04.080
<v Speaker 1>K f I Am you're listening to Later with Mo

2
00:00:04.280 --> 00:00:07.519
<v Speaker 1>Kelly on Jamay on the iHeartRadio app.

3
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:34.320
<v Speaker 2>It is Later with Mo Kelly on KFI AM sixty

4
00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:37.320
<v Speaker 2>Live Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Mark Ronner in from

5
00:00:37.359 --> 00:00:41.240
<v Speaker 2>Mo with Tiffany Hobbs. Thanks for being here with me again, Tiffany.

6
00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:43.399
<v Speaker 3>Good evening. Thank you for allowing me to share the

7
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:44.240
<v Speaker 3>airwaves with.

8
00:00:44.280 --> 00:00:48.600
<v Speaker 2>You, allowing Moe. We'll be back with Tawala tomorrow. We

9
00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:53.759
<v Speaker 2>will hear all about their cruise and their assorted adventures.

10
00:00:54.159 --> 00:00:56.560
<v Speaker 2>Adventures is the word that I can say on the air,

11
00:00:56.600 --> 00:00:59.039
<v Speaker 2>because I'm excited to find out about all the filth

12
00:00:59.079 --> 00:01:01.280
<v Speaker 2>they got up to, all the drunkenness, all the key

13
00:01:01.320 --> 00:01:04.159
<v Speaker 2>swapping parties, whatever else people do on cruises. The only

14
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:07.040
<v Speaker 2>thing I know about cruises is from the old Kulshak

15
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:10.480
<v Speaker 2>the night Stalker episode where Carl Koleshak has to go

16
00:01:10.599 --> 00:01:13.760
<v Speaker 2>to a feature on a cruise ship and it turns

17
00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:16.439
<v Speaker 2>out there's a werewolf on the cruise ship. And I

18
00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:19.439
<v Speaker 2>don't think that's the experience Mo and Tuala are having.

19
00:01:19.480 --> 00:01:20.799
<v Speaker 2>Do you know the episode I'm talking about.

20
00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:23.280
<v Speaker 3>I don't, but I do think that if anyone were

21
00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:26.319
<v Speaker 3>to have that experience. It would be Mo and Twala

22
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:27.280
<v Speaker 3>on a cruise ship.

23
00:01:27.319 --> 00:01:30.599
<v Speaker 2>Well here's a spoiler if you haven't seen it. There's

24
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:33.760
<v Speaker 2>no silver bullets on the ship. So Coleshak has to

25
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:38.439
<v Speaker 2>sneak into the cabin's the captain's cabin and cut the

26
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:41.799
<v Speaker 2>buttons off his dress uniform and melt them down into bullets.

27
00:01:41.799 --> 00:01:44.040
<v Speaker 2>But there's no priest aboard to bless them, so he's

28
00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:46.359
<v Speaker 2>got to get a rabbi to bless them so that

29
00:01:46.400 --> 00:01:49.040
<v Speaker 2>he can shoot the werewolf. And it still doesn't go

30
00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:51.599
<v Speaker 2>as planned. So I'm excited to hear how this went

31
00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:56.120
<v Speaker 2>for Mo and Tuala. We got some good guests tonight.

32
00:01:56.159 --> 00:01:58.159
<v Speaker 2>We have Jackie Ray, of course, coming in on her

33
00:01:58.319 --> 00:02:01.040
<v Speaker 2>normal night to talk about sports, which will be funny

34
00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:05.400
<v Speaker 2>because I don't know anything about sports. Also, a really

35
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:07.719
<v Speaker 2>really cool guest one of the first people I thought

36
00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:09.360
<v Speaker 2>of when I found out we were going to be

37
00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:13.000
<v Speaker 2>hosting the show, Alison Martino, a vintage LA is going

38
00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:15.360
<v Speaker 2>to be here at nine o'clock. She seems like a

39
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:18.759
<v Speaker 2>terrific person. I'm a terrible judge of people, but she

40
00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:20.680
<v Speaker 2>seems like a lot of fun and I know we're

41
00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:23.360
<v Speaker 2>going to have a ton to talk about hope you

42
00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:25.719
<v Speaker 2>had a relaxing labor day, Tiffany. You said you went

43
00:02:26.120 --> 00:02:27.000
<v Speaker 2>swimming today.

44
00:02:27.120 --> 00:02:31.879
<v Speaker 3>I did. I was off today from my day job teaching, thankfully,

45
00:02:31.919 --> 00:02:34.240
<v Speaker 3>and I was able to go swimming before work. That

46
00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:35.199
<v Speaker 3>never happened.

47
00:02:35.199 --> 00:02:38.280
<v Speaker 2>But you didn't grill anything? And did nobody grill anything? Food?

48
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:43.240
<v Speaker 2>She grill anything? Nothing? Not today? Nop, Eileen, you don't

49
00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:48.199
<v Speaker 2>look like a griller. No, she's shaking her head. We've

50
00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:49.280
<v Speaker 2>got Eileen guns.

51
00:02:49.400 --> 00:02:52.319
<v Speaker 3>You'd be surprised. I want to be a vegan really badly,

52
00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:54.759
<v Speaker 3>but I just can't. I like steak too much, and

53
00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:55.360
<v Speaker 3>I do try.

54
00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:57.639
<v Speaker 4>I eat vegan most of the time, but I do

55
00:02:57.719 --> 00:03:00.120
<v Speaker 4>love barbecue and a good steak, I should tell you.

56
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:03.360
<v Speaker 2>And I do admire vegans. And I told Mark Thompson

57
00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:05.520
<v Speaker 2>I would like to get some information about him because

58
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:08.560
<v Speaker 2>the couple times I've tried to go vegan in the past,

59
00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:11.000
<v Speaker 2>I thought I was dying, I had no energy, I

60
00:03:11.039 --> 00:03:15.840
<v Speaker 2>thought my hair was falling out. But what I strenuously

61
00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:19.439
<v Speaker 2>object to on vegan foods is the fake grill marks,

62
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:22.120
<v Speaker 2>like either do it or don't do it. Don't don't

63
00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:25.280
<v Speaker 2>try to pretend like you've got some tofu that's secretly

64
00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:28.960
<v Speaker 2>meet that you've got the grill marks on. I was thinking,

65
00:03:28.960 --> 00:03:30.479
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's Labor Day, and I don't want to

66
00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:33.719
<v Speaker 2>spend a ton of time on this. If you're against

67
00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:36.639
<v Speaker 2>labor unions, I hope you worked today. I hope you

68
00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:39.919
<v Speaker 2>didn't take the day off like people who don't get

69
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:43.639
<v Speaker 2>to celebrate Labor Day. Howard Schultz, I hope you're I

70
00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:48.240
<v Speaker 2>hope Howard Schultz of Starbucks is working the counter there today.

71
00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:50.840
<v Speaker 2>You don't get to take Labor Day off work if

72
00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:53.400
<v Speaker 2>you're a union buster. I didn't get to grill anything

73
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:55.639
<v Speaker 2>today because my car engines light came on and I

74
00:03:56.000 --> 00:03:58.599
<v Speaker 2>didn't get to go to Costco, which I do most weekends,

75
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:01.439
<v Speaker 2>believe it or not, because because I'm a Patriot.

76
00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:04.840
<v Speaker 3>Bill Handle Bill Handle goes to Costco all the time.

77
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:07.680
<v Speaker 2>I believe that's the one thing that we have in common,

78
00:04:07.719 --> 00:04:11.719
<v Speaker 2>because is there anything more American than Costco? Is there

79
00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:16.639
<v Speaker 2>anything more American than bolt? Consumerism and no judgment. They

80
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:19.199
<v Speaker 2>don't have any judgment. Like here, when I go to Ralph's,

81
00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:21.439
<v Speaker 2>I always have to explain myself to the checker when

82
00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:24.160
<v Speaker 2>I have like five packs of cookies to get the

83
00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:27.279
<v Speaker 2>sale price that's insidious. By the way, you can get

84
00:04:27.319 --> 00:04:30.319
<v Speaker 2>just one packet of cookies for five bucks like a Schmo.

85
00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:33.519
<v Speaker 2>Or you can get them for two dollars if you

86
00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:37.160
<v Speaker 2>buy five of them and you don't want to get

87
00:04:37.160 --> 00:04:41.000
<v Speaker 2>caught without cookies if we have a pandemic again or

88
00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:44.920
<v Speaker 2>a zombie apocalypse. So five it is. But I'm always

89
00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:48.319
<v Speaker 2>explaining to the cashier. I hope you know I'm not

90
00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:51.240
<v Speaker 2>just driving straight home and eating these five things of

91
00:04:51.319 --> 00:04:54.040
<v Speaker 2>cookies like a filthy animal. Right, you got to buy

92
00:04:54.079 --> 00:04:56.240
<v Speaker 2>five to get the sale price, And they're just looking

93
00:04:56.240 --> 00:04:58.199
<v Speaker 2>at me like, just get through the line, buddy, Just

94
00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:02.519
<v Speaker 2>or like soup, No, ma'am, I haven't just had my

95
00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:05.120
<v Speaker 2>jaw wired shut and I can eat other things. But

96
00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:09.040
<v Speaker 2>to get this soup for one dollar, I had to

97
00:05:09.079 --> 00:05:12.959
<v Speaker 2>buy eight of them. Otherwise they were four dollars a piece.

98
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:17.240
<v Speaker 2>Nice to meet you. By the way, my name's Andy Warhol. Now,

99
00:05:17.319 --> 00:05:20.519
<v Speaker 2>because I was a bag boy a little while in

100
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:24.199
<v Speaker 2>high school, you better believe we used to profile people

101
00:05:24.279 --> 00:05:27.399
<v Speaker 2>by what they bought. I mean, that's what they all

102
00:05:27.480 --> 00:05:30.680
<v Speaker 2>do and what they always have do, Like how could

103
00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:33.360
<v Speaker 2>you not like box of tampons and some ice cream?

104
00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:38.879
<v Speaker 2>Hope your evening goes okay, many easy, easy, honestly, best

105
00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:41.000
<v Speaker 2>of luck. I'm not going to get in your face

106
00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:45.160
<v Speaker 2>about anything. This was before every single person who watches

107
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:48.000
<v Speaker 2>network TV knew what an FBI profiler was. People who

108
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:50.839
<v Speaker 2>work at grocery stores they should be called in to

109
00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:55.240
<v Speaker 2>solve crimes because they've been little consumer sherlock homes forever

110
00:05:55.639 --> 00:05:57.399
<v Speaker 2>and they judge you. I'm not going to say we

111
00:05:57.480 --> 00:05:59.959
<v Speaker 2>judge you. It's been a while since I did that.

112
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:03.800
<v Speaker 2>So let me see champagne, a couple of lobster tails,

113
00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:08.319
<v Speaker 2>box some magnums, too easy, give me something more challenging.

114
00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:10.680
<v Speaker 2>They don't do that at Costco, though, is my point.

115
00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:12.839
<v Speaker 2>I went through the checkout at Costco a few days

116
00:06:12.839 --> 00:06:15.639
<v Speaker 2>ago with a couple of gigantic bottles of vodka because

117
00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:18.560
<v Speaker 2>they're dirt cheap there. You're insane about them? Why sure,

118
00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:21.879
<v Speaker 2>it's an insanely good deal. Why wouldn't you? And then

119
00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:24.560
<v Speaker 2>I was in the aisle and I saw a killer

120
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:28.720
<v Speaker 2>deal on tequila, big gigantic bottle of Hornitos for like

121
00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:32.720
<v Speaker 2>twenty five bucks, approximately a small barrel of it. When

122
00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:35.079
<v Speaker 2>twenty five bucks it gets you maybe maybe two shots

123
00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:37.879
<v Speaker 2>of it at a bar but I'm feeling self conscious

124
00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:39.480
<v Speaker 2>when I get to the front of the line. Maybe

125
00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:42.199
<v Speaker 2>they slip a pamphlet into your stuff when they see

126
00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:44.680
<v Speaker 2>these kinds of purchases, like do you need helps or

127
00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:48.519
<v Speaker 2>do you have a drinking problem? No, I do not

128
00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:51.319
<v Speaker 2>need help unless you're going to suggest a mixer for

129
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:53.839
<v Speaker 2>all of this. So preemptively, I say to the cashier,

130
00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:56.519
<v Speaker 2>got a stock up for emergencies. No one wants to

131
00:06:56.519 --> 00:06:59.560
<v Speaker 2>get short, you know, a month into the purge, you know,

132
00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:03.279
<v Speaker 2>and I know this might seem like a lot, but

133
00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:07.040
<v Speaker 2>without hesitation, the cashier is like, nope, we're on the

134
00:07:07.040 --> 00:07:09.920
<v Speaker 2>same page. Now I may be imagining this, but I

135
00:07:10.040 --> 00:07:12.040
<v Speaker 2>seriously thought she wanted to high five me. She was

136
00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:16.040
<v Speaker 2>encouraging me, she was validating me. She saw me, and

137
00:07:16.079 --> 00:07:19.959
<v Speaker 2>she was not repulsed. Now, all that said, I love Costco,

138
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:23.120
<v Speaker 2>but you'd think they could use a PA system. And

139
00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:26.079
<v Speaker 2>when the store is closing, instead of the cutting edge

140
00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:29.240
<v Speaker 2>technology that they do use, which consists of a woman

141
00:07:29.279 --> 00:07:31.800
<v Speaker 2>at the back of the store shouting at people to

142
00:07:31.879 --> 00:07:34.720
<v Speaker 2>get the hell out of the store, Costco is now

143
00:07:35.079 --> 00:07:37.600
<v Speaker 2>they heard employees to the front of the store. Have

144
00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:39.279
<v Speaker 2>you been in a Costco when they're closing.

145
00:07:39.399 --> 00:07:41.439
<v Speaker 3>I have not. I try to stay away from things

146
00:07:41.519 --> 00:07:41.720
<v Speaker 3>like that.

147
00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:44.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's just short of turning the hose on people.

148
00:07:44.279 --> 00:07:46.759
<v Speaker 2>I would almost rather have the hose turned on me.

149
00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:49.600
<v Speaker 2>And since this labor Day, I did a little googling

150
00:07:49.639 --> 00:07:52.040
<v Speaker 2>and found out that Costco has something like a ninety

151
00:07:52.040 --> 00:07:55.600
<v Speaker 2>four percent retention rate with employees. They offer medical dental

152
00:07:55.839 --> 00:07:58.759
<v Speaker 2>benefits even to part timers, and so I do feel better.

153
00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:01.920
<v Speaker 2>I feel more patriotic opping at Costco than walmartin I

154
00:08:01.959 --> 00:08:03.879
<v Speaker 2>don't know why more people don't talk about this and

155
00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:06.600
<v Speaker 2>don't seem bothered by it. Walmart pays their employees so

156
00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:09.040
<v Speaker 2>little that it's one of the employers with the most workers,

157
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:12.800
<v Speaker 2>along with McDonald's. I think on public benefits, food Stamps, Medicaid,

158
00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:17.560
<v Speaker 2>and guess who pays for that, US taxpayers, while the

159
00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:22.720
<v Speaker 2>Walton family keeps getting richer than oil Sultan's. Anyone who

160
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:25.120
<v Speaker 2>tells you that that's a right or left issue, I

161
00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:29.160
<v Speaker 2>think they're gas lating, gaslighting you. It's a getting soaked issue.

162
00:08:29.240 --> 00:08:33.080
<v Speaker 2>I mean, people right, left and center pay taxes, and

163
00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:36.480
<v Speaker 2>Walmart and pays its employees so little they got to

164
00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:39.799
<v Speaker 2>go on public assistance and we have to take up

165
00:08:40.360 --> 00:08:44.679
<v Speaker 2>the slack for that they can afford to pay better,

166
00:08:44.679 --> 00:08:47.080
<v Speaker 2>but why should they when they can fleece taxpayers into

167
00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:50.000
<v Speaker 2>footing the bill For all that seems like the opposite

168
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:52.279
<v Speaker 2>of patriotic. I get the feeling that some people aren't

169
00:08:52.279 --> 00:08:54.960
<v Speaker 2>crazy about hearing that, But you have to explain to

170
00:08:55.000 --> 00:08:57.480
<v Speaker 2>me why because they sell red, white and blue stuff

171
00:08:57.480 --> 00:08:58.759
<v Speaker 2>in this story. You got to tell me how you

172
00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:01.840
<v Speaker 2>can possibly defend that. Something to think about on Labor

173
00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:04.320
<v Speaker 2>Day when we come back. We are going to stay

174
00:09:04.360 --> 00:09:06.720
<v Speaker 2>in the mo Kelly Show Later with mo Kelly tradition

175
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:12.559
<v Speaker 2>of covering Metro incidents. But let's make it a surprised you're.

176
00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:16.320
<v Speaker 5>Listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from KFI

177
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:17.159
<v Speaker 5>AM six.

178
00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:21.320
<v Speaker 2>Forty, Mark Ronner in for mo Kelly and Tuala with

179
00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:24.679
<v Speaker 2>Tiffany Hobbs here with me as well. It is a

180
00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:27.399
<v Speaker 2>day ending in why so, of course there's been another

181
00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:31.480
<v Speaker 2>Metro incident, but Metro doesn't seem to be the one

182
00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:34.960
<v Speaker 2>to blame in this one though. Still maybe time for

183
00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:37.399
<v Speaker 2>the people who run Metro to burn some sage on

184
00:09:37.480 --> 00:09:41.399
<v Speaker 2>some buses, do an exorcism, start some hazard pay for drivers.

185
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:44.000
<v Speaker 2>I'll give you the highlights here three cars attempting to

186
00:09:44.080 --> 00:09:46.720
<v Speaker 2>start a street takeover crashed into a Metro bus in

187
00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:50.159
<v Speaker 2>LA's Vermont Vista neighborhood overnight. Video from the scene shows

188
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:52.679
<v Speaker 2>the mangled vehicles, including one that had been turned on

189
00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:54.919
<v Speaker 2>its side in front of the bus, at the crash site,

190
00:09:55.080 --> 00:09:58.440
<v Speaker 2>located near the intersection of South Figueroa Street and Century Boulevard.

191
00:09:59.120 --> 00:10:02.320
<v Speaker 2>After the crash, off th drivers fled the scene. The

192
00:10:03.519 --> 00:10:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Metro spokesman said the bus was stopped at a red

193
00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:07.759
<v Speaker 2>light when the collision occurred. Here's what happened. A Metro

194
00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:10.879
<v Speaker 2>Line eighty one bus was waiting at a red traffic

195
00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:13.840
<v Speaker 2>signal behind a vehicle when a third vehicle attempting to

196
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:17.039
<v Speaker 2>make a left turn, collided with the vehicle, pushing it

197
00:10:17.200 --> 00:10:20.200
<v Speaker 2>in front of the bus. My god, these guys can't

198
00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:20.759
<v Speaker 2>get a break.

199
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:23.519
<v Speaker 3>They can't. And it's really funny that you say. This

200
00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:27.559
<v Speaker 3>is a story that somewhat atypical. Usually Metro is in

201
00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:32.240
<v Speaker 3>the victim position, or rather the victimizer position, and in

202
00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:34.600
<v Speaker 3>this case they are the victim. So we have a

203
00:10:34.639 --> 00:10:36.559
<v Speaker 3>bit of sympathy for them.

204
00:10:36.720 --> 00:10:40.679
<v Speaker 2>And sympathy for the drivers. What do these guys say

205
00:10:40.679 --> 00:10:43.440
<v Speaker 2>to their spouses, men or women when they leave the

206
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:47.759
<v Speaker 2>house for work every day, it's Lazarus like, it's been

207
00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:50.159
<v Speaker 2>a good life. You're the love of my life. No

208
00:10:50.159 --> 00:10:53.840
<v Speaker 2>matter what happens, never forget that. And if I come home,

209
00:10:53.879 --> 00:10:55.240
<v Speaker 2>what are we having for dinner tonight?

210
00:10:56.159 --> 00:10:58.879
<v Speaker 3>The interesting thing about this story, too, Mark, is that,

211
00:10:59.159 --> 00:11:03.679
<v Speaker 3>and we were speaking about this off air, typically Labor Day,

212
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:08.320
<v Speaker 3>Memorial Day, these weekend long weekends are synchronous when it

213
00:11:08.360 --> 00:11:12.559
<v Speaker 3>comes to the volume of high traffic incidents, DUIs, things

214
00:11:12.600 --> 00:11:16.600
<v Speaker 3>like that, and there were no shortage of these incidents.

215
00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:19.759
<v Speaker 3>There was another one that has kind of flown under

216
00:11:19.799 --> 00:11:22.159
<v Speaker 3>the radar at this point, it hasn't been picked up

217
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:26.000
<v Speaker 3>by the local TV outlets, but it is all over

218
00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:31.399
<v Speaker 3>kind of these social media local blogs that follow crime

219
00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:35.240
<v Speaker 3>and also report to the TV stations. And what happened

220
00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:40.440
<v Speaker 3>was there was an incident in downtown LA's Santi Village.

221
00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:43.720
<v Speaker 3>And if you're familiar with that part of downtown LA,

222
00:11:44.480 --> 00:11:47.960
<v Speaker 3>there are lots of old factories that have since been

223
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:53.000
<v Speaker 3>converted into lofts and it's a very trendy area if

224
00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:56.159
<v Speaker 3>you will. Eighth and Los Angeles Street right there, and

225
00:11:56.200 --> 00:12:00.600
<v Speaker 3>there's this little area that houses multiple develops and they

226
00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:03.039
<v Speaker 3>share this parking garage. I say all of this to

227
00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:07.840
<v Speaker 3>say there were YouTubers there filming, because the area itself

228
00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:11.000
<v Speaker 3>is very picturesque. They've used it for lots of movie

229
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:14.240
<v Speaker 3>backdrops and whatnot. And these YouTubers where they're getting content,

230
00:12:14.679 --> 00:12:18.720
<v Speaker 3>and they got content. Oh did they? They were able

231
00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:23.120
<v Speaker 3>to somehow catch a crime in action? And I say

232
00:12:23.159 --> 00:12:26.320
<v Speaker 3>somehow kind of ingest because it's LA and you can

233
00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:29.639
<v Speaker 3>probably catch crime if you just look out of any window.

234
00:12:29.679 --> 00:12:33.480
<v Speaker 3>There's probably crime happening right outside of our studio right now. Well,

235
00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:36.440
<v Speaker 3>LA one can hope. Well they did, and they were

236
00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:40.240
<v Speaker 3>able to catch this person driving erratically and this person

237
00:12:40.320 --> 00:12:43.679
<v Speaker 3>was on Eighth Street, crashes into this gate of this

238
00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:49.080
<v Speaker 3>apartment complex, these multi development area, knocks down, this gate, reverses,

239
00:12:49.240 --> 00:12:52.639
<v Speaker 3>goes backwards down the street, the makings of everything you

240
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:57.519
<v Speaker 3>could imagine good newscasts might include. Except these are YouTubers

241
00:12:57.559 --> 00:12:59.320
<v Speaker 3>catching this all on their cell phones.

242
00:12:59.399 --> 00:13:02.639
<v Speaker 2>Well they catch everything. Listen. If you had had these

243
00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:06.440
<v Speaker 2>YouTubers with the camera phones back like when The Fugitive

244
00:13:06.600 --> 00:13:09.399
<v Speaker 2>was on TV, Richard Kimball would have been busted after

245
00:13:09.480 --> 00:13:13.519
<v Speaker 2>one season. He wasn't gonna make it multiple seasons because

246
00:13:13.559 --> 00:13:16.559
<v Speaker 2>they see everything it's like the CCTVs and that old

247
00:13:17.039 --> 00:13:21.720
<v Speaker 2>five show. We have no privacy anymore. Anything you do

248
00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:23.559
<v Speaker 2>is going to get filmed, right, So.

249
00:13:23.559 --> 00:13:27.399
<v Speaker 3>They film this guy and this guy again is driving backwards.

250
00:13:27.720 --> 00:13:32.039
<v Speaker 3>Then the person goes forward hits a fire department truck

251
00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:36.120
<v Speaker 3>which is in pursuit of whatever. So there's all this happening,

252
00:13:36.159 --> 00:13:41.279
<v Speaker 3>this huge kind of cacophonists just crime center right there,

253
00:13:41.279 --> 00:13:45.440
<v Speaker 3>involving this one person who is clearly drunk. So that's

254
00:13:45.440 --> 00:13:49.120
<v Speaker 3>where the dui thing comes in or in some way intoxicated. Well,

255
00:13:49.240 --> 00:13:52.799
<v Speaker 3>they pursue, these YouTubers pursue this guy. They get in

256
00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:55.720
<v Speaker 3>their cars, they follow them, they call the police, and

257
00:13:55.759 --> 00:13:58.159
<v Speaker 3>in the interim they decide that they're going to corner

258
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:01.080
<v Speaker 3>this person, who then gets out of the car, runs

259
00:14:01.279 --> 00:14:04.679
<v Speaker 3>runs into another parking lot. They find him with his

260
00:14:04.840 --> 00:14:08.519
<v Speaker 3>little legs sticking out from behind a car, trying to hide.

261
00:14:08.600 --> 00:14:11.000
<v Speaker 3>And you know, if you've ever had too much to drink,

262
00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:15.080
<v Speaker 3>your ever rationalization is always off. He probably thought he

263
00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:17.360
<v Speaker 3>was really well hidden. No, and this is all on

264
00:14:17.440 --> 00:14:20.519
<v Speaker 3>video so you can see it. But they catch him

265
00:14:20.559 --> 00:14:25.440
<v Speaker 3>and they use a cell phone charger, a portable charger,

266
00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:28.679
<v Speaker 3>and they hold it and kind of conceal it to

267
00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:31.360
<v Speaker 3>make it look like it's a weapon of some sort.

268
00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:34.919
<v Speaker 3>And this is a YouTuber who then approaches this guy

269
00:14:35.039 --> 00:14:38.159
<v Speaker 3>and makes a full on citizen's arrest.

270
00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:40.879
<v Speaker 2>So this is the twenty first century equivalent of holding

271
00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:43.639
<v Speaker 2>your index finger in the pocket of your coat and

272
00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:45.320
<v Speaker 2>pretending like you got to hear around there.

273
00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:49.039
<v Speaker 3>Yet absolutely except now we're using digital devices. And so

274
00:14:49.519 --> 00:14:52.759
<v Speaker 3>they hold this person there, they put the person's arm

275
00:14:52.840 --> 00:14:55.679
<v Speaker 3>behind their back, and the police do show up and

276
00:14:55.720 --> 00:14:58.919
<v Speaker 3>they hand off this person to the police who this

277
00:14:59.000 --> 00:15:02.080
<v Speaker 3>person was in booked for dui and causing all of

278
00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:04.240
<v Speaker 3>these things. And again this has flown under the radar,

279
00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:07.279
<v Speaker 3>but it really speaks to kind of the chaos that

280
00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:10.960
<v Speaker 3>happens over these three day weekends, including the situation with

281
00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:15.159
<v Speaker 3>the Metro and this attempted street takeover with these cars

282
00:15:15.480 --> 00:15:16.960
<v Speaker 3>crashing into a bus.

283
00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:19.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, I haven't seen all the Fast and

284
00:15:19.639 --> 00:15:22.080
<v Speaker 2>Furious movies. Is there one of the more Vin Diesel

285
00:15:22.120 --> 00:15:24.240
<v Speaker 2>gets taken out by a Metro bus.

286
00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:27.600
<v Speaker 3>If it hasn't happened already, it's probably in the works.

287
00:15:27.679 --> 00:15:31.399
<v Speaker 2>I just can't imagine. Like when I was say, I

288
00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:34.200
<v Speaker 2>don't know. Charlie Brown, age eight nine ten years old.

289
00:15:34.480 --> 00:15:37.879
<v Speaker 2>I went everywhere on city buses, and I went alone,

290
00:15:38.039 --> 00:15:42.919
<v Speaker 2>and nobody cared. Nothing ever happened. But could you imagine

291
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:45.360
<v Speaker 2>letting your kids do that at this point?

292
00:15:45.639 --> 00:15:48.960
<v Speaker 3>It for some it's a necessity, and it does not

293
00:15:49.120 --> 00:15:54.200
<v Speaker 3>come without that paranoia and that anxiety. It's very volatile,

294
00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:56.639
<v Speaker 3>it's very unpredictable. I think what you can predict is

295
00:15:56.639 --> 00:16:00.679
<v Speaker 3>that there likely will be something to happen surrounding and

296
00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:02.360
<v Speaker 3>in this case, they are the innocent ones.

297
00:16:02.519 --> 00:16:03.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I mean we as long as we were home

298
00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:06.159
<v Speaker 2>in time for dinner. Nobody cared where we went because

299
00:16:06.200 --> 00:16:09.000
<v Speaker 2>it just this kind of stuff never happened before. So

300
00:16:09.159 --> 00:16:11.799
<v Speaker 2>like I would imagine a kid today coming home and

301
00:16:11.799 --> 00:16:16.000
<v Speaker 2>the parents like, so, anything happened today's son? Oh, just

302
00:16:16.039 --> 00:16:19.799
<v Speaker 2>an attack on the driver and oh a street takeover crash.

303
00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:22.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh is that all? Let's pass the meat loaf.

304
00:16:22.519 --> 00:16:24.879
<v Speaker 3>I that's kind of where it's going.

305
00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:28.080
<v Speaker 2>I just can't like there. You could make an argument

306
00:16:28.159 --> 00:16:31.440
<v Speaker 2>now for sending your kid everywhere in an uber, driving

307
00:16:31.440 --> 00:16:34.919
<v Speaker 2>them yourself, and having them chipped like a pet until

308
00:16:34.919 --> 00:16:36.720
<v Speaker 2>they're at least eighteen years old.

309
00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:38.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, I think you have to.

310
00:16:39.039 --> 00:16:42.360
<v Speaker 2>I like to end on a dystopian positive note like that.

311
00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:44.440
<v Speaker 2>So when we come back, we're going to talk a

312
00:16:44.440 --> 00:16:47.759
<v Speaker 2>little bit about the landslide in Rancho Palace Verdes. It

313
00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:51.600
<v Speaker 2>is getting worse fast and people are in a pretty

314
00:16:51.639 --> 00:16:53.639
<v Speaker 2>serious position, not sure what they can do.

315
00:16:54.399 --> 00:16:58.000
<v Speaker 5>You're listening too Later with Moe Kelly on demand from

316
00:16:58.080 --> 00:16:59.919
<v Speaker 5>KFI AM six forty.

317
00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:04.160
<v Speaker 2>Mo and Twala will be back tomorrow and they'll tell

318
00:17:04.160 --> 00:17:08.799
<v Speaker 2>you all about their ordeal, I mean, their fun cruise.

319
00:17:09.599 --> 00:17:13.359
<v Speaker 2>We have some actual news to talk about tonight, and

320
00:17:14.039 --> 00:17:16.759
<v Speaker 2>it seems like a situation in Rancho Palace Verdes is

321
00:17:16.799 --> 00:17:20.480
<v Speaker 2>getting more and more dire. Give you a little information here,

322
00:17:20.519 --> 00:17:22.720
<v Speaker 2>then go to a news report on it and additional

323
00:17:22.759 --> 00:17:26.119
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and five residents is will lose electricity today

324
00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:30.599
<v Speaker 2>as Southern California Edison continues implementing safeguards amid worsening landslides

325
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:33.480
<v Speaker 2>threatening areas of Rancho Palace vertis Fush will you played

326
00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:34.279
<v Speaker 2>the news clip please?

327
00:17:40.200 --> 00:17:43.400
<v Speaker 4>Gas power generators are now the main source of power

328
00:17:43.480 --> 00:17:45.839
<v Speaker 4>for nearly one hundred and forty homes in the Portuguese

329
00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:50.079
<v Speaker 4>ben community of Rancho Palace Verdes after Southern California Edison

330
00:17:50.119 --> 00:17:53.000
<v Speaker 4>shut off the electricity due to safety concerns with the

331
00:17:53.039 --> 00:17:53.839
<v Speaker 4>shifting land.

332
00:17:54.119 --> 00:17:57.680
<v Speaker 6>We got the one day notice just this weekend, during

333
00:17:57.680 --> 00:18:02.119
<v Speaker 6>a holiday weekend about Electric City, that that has been

334
00:18:02.960 --> 00:18:04.960
<v Speaker 6>just unreal, to be quite honest with you.

335
00:18:05.160 --> 00:18:08.319
<v Speaker 4>Kevin Cross rushed out to buy a generator Saturday night.

336
00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:11.119
<v Speaker 4>He says, it's been frustrating to be given less than

337
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:12.839
<v Speaker 4>twenty four hours to prepare.

338
00:18:13.079 --> 00:18:16.279
<v Speaker 6>It's crazy just driving all over the place. Still a

339
00:18:16.319 --> 00:18:19.240
<v Speaker 6>lot of unknowns. I have no idea how long the

340
00:18:19.319 --> 00:18:22.559
<v Speaker 6>generator works with a tank of gas. I'm trying to

341
00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:23.319
<v Speaker 6>feel that out.

342
00:18:23.720 --> 00:18:26.319
<v Speaker 4>This power shut off comes one month after the gas

343
00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:29.400
<v Speaker 4>was shut off. As the landslides in Rancho Palace Verdes

344
00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:33.000
<v Speaker 4>continue to worsen. It has been shifting since the nineteen fifties,

345
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:36.039
<v Speaker 4>but it's now moving at an accelerated rate of more

346
00:18:36.079 --> 00:18:38.880
<v Speaker 4>than a foot a week in certain areas. The increase

347
00:18:38.920 --> 00:18:41.880
<v Speaker 4>in heavy rains last year sped up the movement, damaging

348
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:43.119
<v Speaker 4>homes and roads.

349
00:18:43.519 --> 00:18:46.039
<v Speaker 6>Just did this just to reinforce it. Didn't want the

350
00:18:46.079 --> 00:18:47.279
<v Speaker 6>garage coming down here.

351
00:18:47.559 --> 00:18:50.799
<v Speaker 4>CHROs has been making adjustments to protect the foundation since

352
00:18:50.880 --> 00:18:54.000
<v Speaker 4>purchasing the property to deal with the crisis, which he

353
00:18:54.079 --> 00:18:58.440
<v Speaker 4>says is manageable but feels continuously running. The loud generator

354
00:18:58.759 --> 00:19:01.720
<v Speaker 4>is not an ideal salution and moving forward like.

355
00:19:01.640 --> 00:19:04.599
<v Speaker 6>This cannot be long term, Like I'm already losing my mind.

356
00:19:04.640 --> 00:19:07.079
<v Speaker 6>It's been a couple of days. I'm making constant adjustments.

357
00:19:07.079 --> 00:19:09.440
<v Speaker 6>I don't want to run the generators really loud at night,

358
00:19:10.079 --> 00:19:12.319
<v Speaker 6>so I have to turn it off, and there's no

359
00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:14.680
<v Speaker 6>power in the mouse, you know, I got to decide,

360
00:19:14.680 --> 00:19:16.880
<v Speaker 6>you know, when it's ready for time to go to bed.

361
00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:19.200
<v Speaker 6>I really don't need that much power. But if an

362
00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:21.640
<v Speaker 6>emergency happened and I need, you know, now, I need

363
00:19:21.680 --> 00:19:24.200
<v Speaker 6>to have lanterns, flashlights, I need to have all these

364
00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:25.079
<v Speaker 6>things prepared.

365
00:19:25.319 --> 00:19:28.880
<v Speaker 7>And it's also expensive. Crow says. A generator of this

366
00:19:29.039 --> 00:19:31.279
<v Speaker 7>size to run a home that's about four thousand square

367
00:19:31.319 --> 00:19:34.920
<v Speaker 7>feet costs around twenty five hundred dollars and about seventy

368
00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:37.559
<v Speaker 7>five dollars a day worth of gas just to fill

369
00:19:37.599 --> 00:19:39.599
<v Speaker 7>it up. I did reach out to the city to

370
00:19:39.640 --> 00:19:42.480
<v Speaker 7>see if there's any plans to reimburse or to help

371
00:19:42.880 --> 00:19:45.240
<v Speaker 7>with paying off the generators are paying for gas.

372
00:19:45.279 --> 00:19:46.799
<v Speaker 4>I still not heard back.

373
00:19:47.680 --> 00:19:51.880
<v Speaker 2>What on nightmare and running a generator indefinitely indefinitely is

374
00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:54.680
<v Speaker 2>no plan at all. So the latest shut off was

375
00:19:54.680 --> 00:19:57.839
<v Speaker 2>scheduled for seven to night in the Seaview area. That

376
00:19:57.880 --> 00:19:59.720
<v Speaker 2>comes a day after residents and one hundred and forty

377
00:19:59.720 --> 00:20:03.119
<v Speaker 2>homes and the Portuguese ben community lost their electricity. They're

378
00:20:03.279 --> 00:20:07.200
<v Speaker 2>under an evacuation warning some other highlights, although that's not

379
00:20:07.240 --> 00:20:09.960
<v Speaker 2>really the word you want here. Forty seven homes without

380
00:20:10.000 --> 00:20:12.799
<v Speaker 2>power for twenty four hours, forty properties without power for

381
00:20:12.799 --> 00:20:19.000
<v Speaker 2>one to three weeks, twenty properties without power indefinitely. They've

382
00:20:19.039 --> 00:20:23.000
<v Speaker 2>got vehicles, community care vehicles set up throughout the day

383
00:20:23.079 --> 00:20:25.279
<v Speaker 2>to give people some help. I don't know what they

384
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:30.119
<v Speaker 2>can do though. Without gas electricity service, many residents may

385
00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:33.920
<v Speaker 2>choose to seek alternative housing arrangements for the foreseeable future.

386
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:37.319
<v Speaker 2>The cities identifying hotels and other accommodations that can offer

387
00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:40.799
<v Speaker 2>discounted rates for residents. Again, a hotel, how long can

388
00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:41.640
<v Speaker 2>you stay in a hotel?

389
00:20:42.079 --> 00:20:46.119
<v Speaker 3>It assumes that people have this sort of emergency fund

390
00:20:46.599 --> 00:20:51.119
<v Speaker 3>to be able to furnish this sort of disaster relief.

391
00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:55.079
<v Speaker 3>And I know janis Han supervisor. Han is asking for age.

392
00:20:55.119 --> 00:20:58.480
<v Speaker 3>He's appealing to Governor Newsom to try and get somewhere

393
00:20:58.559 --> 00:21:02.200
<v Speaker 3>upwards of one billion in aid. But until that happens,

394
00:21:02.200 --> 00:21:04.960
<v Speaker 3>people are going to be footing the bill individually, and

395
00:21:05.319 --> 00:21:08.079
<v Speaker 3>again these are this is a community that is not

396
00:21:08.200 --> 00:21:13.200
<v Speaker 3>necessarily wealthy. They have really expensive homes, and yes, there

397
00:21:13.240 --> 00:21:16.720
<v Speaker 3>are people there who are wealthy or do have a

398
00:21:16.720 --> 00:21:18.440
<v Speaker 3>lot of money, But then there are other people who

399
00:21:18.519 --> 00:21:21.920
<v Speaker 3>got in a long time ago, lot of seniors who

400
00:21:21.920 --> 00:21:25.200
<v Speaker 3>are living right at their means, and this is their home.

401
00:21:25.279 --> 00:21:27.759
<v Speaker 3>This is their home, this is their savings, this is

402
00:21:27.799 --> 00:21:31.480
<v Speaker 3>their retirement. And now all of this is in peril

403
00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:35.880
<v Speaker 3>and they're saying indefinitely how the open endedness of this

404
00:21:36.119 --> 00:21:40.400
<v Speaker 3>is insane, and right at the beginning of a heat wave,

405
00:21:40.720 --> 00:21:43.400
<v Speaker 3>and at the coast at Portuguese Been, which I'm very

406
00:21:43.400 --> 00:21:47.079
<v Speaker 3>familiar with. Yes, it is typically cooler than inland, but

407
00:21:47.160 --> 00:21:49.880
<v Speaker 3>it can get really warm, and when you're dealing with

408
00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:53.200
<v Speaker 3>all of this, it's just adding insult to injury.

409
00:21:53.799 --> 00:21:56.240
<v Speaker 2>I see here the land movement in Rancho Palas Verdes

410
00:21:56.279 --> 00:22:00.279
<v Speaker 2>has accelerated across six hundred and eighty acres following heavy

411
00:22:00.359 --> 00:22:02.759
<v Speaker 2>rains in the spring of twenty twenty three, which caused

412
00:22:02.759 --> 00:22:06.079
<v Speaker 2>more damage to homes and roads and utilities. So I

413
00:22:06.079 --> 00:22:08.960
<v Speaker 2>guess there's a climate change component to this, but there's

414
00:22:08.960 --> 00:22:10.640
<v Speaker 2>more to it than that. Oh and by the way,

415
00:22:10.920 --> 00:22:13.799
<v Speaker 2>the fear of looters. For God's sakes, can you imagine

416
00:22:13.799 --> 00:22:17.000
<v Speaker 2>a lower life form than somebody looting a home that

417
00:22:17.039 --> 00:22:19.039
<v Speaker 2>people have had to skid daddle out of because they're

418
00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:21.279
<v Speaker 2>afraid it's going to slide into the ocean.

419
00:22:21.359 --> 00:22:24.079
<v Speaker 3>And it happened before, which is why they're issuing these

420
00:22:24.119 --> 00:22:27.480
<v Speaker 3>warnings to residents and to the local law enforcement. Because

421
00:22:27.519 --> 00:22:30.400
<v Speaker 3>back in May, back in March, back in these other

422
00:22:30.559 --> 00:22:32.880
<v Speaker 3>you know, in the past previous months where they've been

423
00:22:32.880 --> 00:22:37.240
<v Speaker 3>dealing with these evacuations, they absolutely had looting activity.

424
00:22:36.960 --> 00:22:39.599
<v Speaker 2>And arrest too. So I see that Sheriff Luna has

425
00:22:39.680 --> 00:22:44.440
<v Speaker 2>authorized drones to help guard against possible criminal activity. But

426
00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:47.480
<v Speaker 2>what good is a drone going to do if somebody

427
00:22:47.519 --> 00:22:49.279
<v Speaker 2>just gets in and out? I mean, I guess maybe

428
00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:55.039
<v Speaker 2>help identifying them there. But there's more to the situation

429
00:22:55.160 --> 00:22:59.039
<v Speaker 2>than the rain. Though. This is pretty interesting. It was

430
00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:04.160
<v Speaker 2>ancient landslide that goes back thousands of years, which was

431
00:23:04.359 --> 00:23:09.079
<v Speaker 2>activated by more recent tunneling involving a section of Crenshaw Boulevard.

432
00:23:09.160 --> 00:23:13.559
<v Speaker 2>You get that some of this or some unspecified portion

433
00:23:13.640 --> 00:23:18.799
<v Speaker 2>of a percentage of this awful landslide that's inconveniencing displacing,

434
00:23:19.519 --> 00:23:23.839
<v Speaker 2>losing the homes possibly of countless people. This was from

435
00:23:23.920 --> 00:23:27.440
<v Speaker 2>something that could have been avoided. So tunneling through something

436
00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:30.799
<v Speaker 2>that really got this going. Who is responsible for this?

437
00:23:31.039 --> 00:23:33.359
<v Speaker 2>Who pays? And I gotta tell you, this is so

438
00:23:33.559 --> 00:23:35.480
<v Speaker 2>dire that it sounds to me like something out of

439
00:23:35.480 --> 00:23:38.519
<v Speaker 2>one of those seventies disaster movies? Are you too young

440
00:23:38.559 --> 00:23:40.680
<v Speaker 2>for these? The ones in sense around that shook the

441
00:23:40.759 --> 00:23:45.279
<v Speaker 2>seats like you would have Charles Charlton Heston warning somebody

442
00:23:45.359 --> 00:23:47.480
<v Speaker 2>you can't do this, or X Y and Z is

443
00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:49.720
<v Speaker 2>going to happening, going to happen, and this is the

444
00:23:49.920 --> 00:23:52.720
<v Speaker 2>X Y and Z. So it seems to me like

445
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:55.880
<v Speaker 2>if this is true that it's at least partially the

446
00:23:55.960 --> 00:23:59.759
<v Speaker 2>result of tunneling, somebody's got to answer for this. Somebody's

447
00:23:59.759 --> 00:24:02.640
<v Speaker 2>got to pay, somebody's going to make these people whole again.

448
00:24:02.839 --> 00:24:06.079
<v Speaker 2>Like I don't really understand engineering at all. Of all

449
00:24:06.119 --> 00:24:10.039
<v Speaker 2>the stuff I try to school myself on, engineering baffles

450
00:24:10.079 --> 00:24:13.359
<v Speaker 2>me more than almost anything. So, Like there's sometimes late

451
00:24:13.400 --> 00:24:16.279
<v Speaker 2>at night I'll have a nightcap and I'll turn on

452
00:24:16.359 --> 00:24:20.640
<v Speaker 2>YouTube and watch documentaries about these skyscrapers in New York

453
00:24:20.960 --> 00:24:23.359
<v Speaker 2>and it gives me anxiety attacks. I'm not kidding y,

454
00:24:24.039 --> 00:24:27.759
<v Speaker 2>So the prospect of building in an area like this

455
00:24:28.240 --> 00:24:31.160
<v Speaker 2>that might be a little dicey to begin with, and

456
00:24:31.200 --> 00:24:34.720
<v Speaker 2>then just kind of doing the whole gopher routine in

457
00:24:34.799 --> 00:24:39.279
<v Speaker 2>networks that destabilize all the ground underneath. That seems insane

458
00:24:39.359 --> 00:24:39.599
<v Speaker 2>to me.

459
00:24:39.960 --> 00:24:43.400
<v Speaker 3>It's a huge part of the city of this region

460
00:24:43.480 --> 00:24:49.359
<v Speaker 3>that is going away and forcibly violently, some might say

461
00:24:49.680 --> 00:24:54.319
<v Speaker 3>it really kind of We thought peeked with Wayfarer's chapel

462
00:24:54.599 --> 00:24:55.039
<v Speaker 3>back in.

463
00:24:55.039 --> 00:24:58.200
<v Speaker 2>May remind people what happened with that. If you can recall.

464
00:24:57.920 --> 00:24:59.799
<v Speaker 3>The details, maybe we can do that when we come back.

465
00:25:00.480 --> 00:25:02.559
<v Speaker 2>Oh is it time to break? Now, let's move on,

466
00:25:02.599 --> 00:25:04.920
<v Speaker 2>but we're gonna stay on top of this story at KFI,

467
00:25:05.079 --> 00:25:07.279
<v Speaker 2>so stay tuned. When we come back from the break,

468
00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:10.759
<v Speaker 2>we are going to talk about sports fans getting cut

469
00:25:10.960 --> 00:25:14.720
<v Speaker 2>right off and the weekend box office and after that

470
00:25:14.880 --> 00:25:17.759
<v Speaker 2>Jackie Ray, Allison Martino Full Night Ahead. Stay tuned.

471
00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:21.839
<v Speaker 5>You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from

472
00:25:21.920 --> 00:25:23.480
<v Speaker 5>KFI AM six forty.

473
00:25:24.240 --> 00:25:27.440
<v Speaker 2>Mark Ronner in from the newsroom from O Kelly, who

474
00:25:27.519 --> 00:25:30.160
<v Speaker 2>is off on a cruise with Tuala Tiffany Hobbs here

475
00:25:30.279 --> 00:25:33.359
<v Speaker 2>making sure I don't burst into tears or stuff for

476
00:25:33.400 --> 00:25:36.519
<v Speaker 2>about of incontinence here in the host with different share

477
00:25:36.640 --> 00:25:39.519
<v Speaker 2>but same cru you got Foosh in the air mix.

478
00:25:39.559 --> 00:25:43.400
<v Speaker 2>We've got okay, not fully the same crew. We've got Eileen,

479
00:25:43.559 --> 00:25:46.839
<v Speaker 2>who is new in the news department. Welcome aboard, Eileen.

480
00:25:47.079 --> 00:25:49.519
<v Speaker 2>I you know what did I say to you the

481
00:25:49.559 --> 00:25:53.680
<v Speaker 2>first time I trained you? You don't remember? You said

482
00:25:53.759 --> 00:25:59.079
<v Speaker 2>run okay. Apart from that, I said, your learning curve

483
00:25:59.160 --> 00:26:01.640
<v Speaker 2>is frightening me, and you're going to have my job.

484
00:26:01.759 --> 00:26:03.279
<v Speaker 2>I just didn't think it was going to be quite

485
00:26:03.319 --> 00:26:07.119
<v Speaker 2>this fast. We've got Keana, and I think we're good

486
00:26:07.119 --> 00:26:11.000
<v Speaker 2>to go. The story that we're going to do right

487
00:26:11.079 --> 00:26:15.200
<v Speaker 2>now is hilarious because playing the sports theme before I

488
00:26:15.319 --> 00:26:18.039
<v Speaker 2>talk is about the most inappropriate thing in the world.

489
00:26:18.279 --> 00:26:20.640
<v Speaker 2>Not only do I not follow sports or know anything

490
00:26:20.680 --> 00:26:22.880
<v Speaker 2>about most sports that people watch. I did all the

491
00:26:22.960 --> 00:26:25.400
<v Speaker 2>crappy ones that nobody likes like. I wrestled, and I

492
00:26:25.440 --> 00:26:29.559
<v Speaker 2>had to wear the singlet, which honestly rather unflattering no

493
00:26:29.599 --> 00:26:31.920
<v Speaker 2>matter what kind of shape you think you're in the singlet,

494
00:26:32.440 --> 00:26:35.440
<v Speaker 2>I ran, I did kickboxing, and these are not real

495
00:26:35.640 --> 00:26:38.640
<v Speaker 2>crowd pleasers of sports. But I'm gonna start off with

496
00:26:38.920 --> 00:26:41.799
<v Speaker 2>a story here and then you're gonna understand why this

497
00:26:41.880 --> 00:26:45.000
<v Speaker 2>is interesting to me. The statute of limitations has run

498
00:26:45.039 --> 00:26:48.759
<v Speaker 2>out on this. It's been decades one time, and I

499
00:26:48.880 --> 00:26:51.480
<v Speaker 2>really wasn't into sports. One time, when I was living

500
00:26:51.480 --> 00:26:54.920
<v Speaker 2>in Indiana working at my first newspaper and not barely

501
00:26:54.960 --> 00:26:58.000
<v Speaker 2>making enough to make rent and have a nightcap after

502
00:26:58.240 --> 00:27:00.480
<v Speaker 2>my police beach shift. At the end of the night,

503
00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:05.079
<v Speaker 2>I had no money whatsoever, dirt poor. I heard there

504
00:27:05.160 --> 00:27:08.240
<v Speaker 2>was going to be a Wild Wild West TV show

505
00:27:08.279 --> 00:27:11.519
<v Speaker 2>marathon on one of the cable channels. I didn't have cable,

506
00:27:11.880 --> 00:27:13.920
<v Speaker 2>so what did I do. I got a ladder out

507
00:27:13.960 --> 00:27:17.720
<v Speaker 2>of the landlord's garage and I started hacking into my neighbor,

508
00:27:17.799 --> 00:27:21.359
<v Speaker 2>Hippie Jim's cable. And I had a splitter that I

509
00:27:21.400 --> 00:27:23.640
<v Speaker 2>bought for like a buck and a half at the store.

510
00:27:24.160 --> 00:27:26.680
<v Speaker 2>And I'm up on the ladder. I've cut it in half.

511
00:27:26.839 --> 00:27:29.200
<v Speaker 2>I've got half of it in my mouth and the

512
00:27:29.240 --> 00:27:32.119
<v Speaker 2>knife in the other hand, and I look down and

513
00:27:32.160 --> 00:27:35.359
<v Speaker 2>I see Hippie Jim and his wife standing there looking

514
00:27:35.480 --> 00:27:38.039
<v Speaker 2>up at me like they're going to kill me, like

515
00:27:38.640 --> 00:27:42.359
<v Speaker 2>it's one of those standiard ground states. Because apparently I

516
00:27:42.400 --> 00:27:44.680
<v Speaker 2>had cut off their cable right in the middle of

517
00:27:44.720 --> 00:27:48.960
<v Speaker 2>an important sports game. They're watching to watch the Wild

518
00:27:48.960 --> 00:27:51.720
<v Speaker 2>Wild West. They were within their rights to take my

519
00:27:51.799 --> 00:27:54.839
<v Speaker 2>life at this time. And so what's that I got

520
00:27:54.880 --> 00:27:57.519
<v Speaker 2>to do with this is that ESPN's gone off the

521
00:27:57.519 --> 00:27:59.960
<v Speaker 2>air on a major carrier for the second straight year

522
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:03.079
<v Speaker 2>during the US Open Tennis tournament and in the midst

523
00:28:03.119 --> 00:28:06.920
<v Speaker 2>of the first full weekend to college football. Disney entertainment

524
00:28:06.960 --> 00:28:09.599
<v Speaker 2>channels went dark on Direct TV Sunday night after the

525
00:28:09.640 --> 00:28:13.000
<v Speaker 2>sides were unable to reach a new carriage agreement. The

526
00:28:13.039 --> 00:28:19.119
<v Speaker 2>move angered some sports fans. You think, I bet seismologists

527
00:28:19.119 --> 00:28:22.759
<v Speaker 2>here at the university probably picked up the tremor from

528
00:28:22.799 --> 00:28:25.680
<v Speaker 2>people yelling that one word that starts to see.

529
00:28:25.759 --> 00:28:29.440
<v Speaker 3>You know, who was playing yesterday when this happened.

530
00:28:29.480 --> 00:28:31.720
<v Speaker 2>Football wise, college your side, don't who? Who?

531
00:28:31.920 --> 00:28:38.200
<v Speaker 3>USC my alma mater and LSU, which was a hugely

532
00:28:38.279 --> 00:28:42.359
<v Speaker 3>anticipated game watched by so many people, and it was

533
00:28:42.400 --> 00:28:44.680
<v Speaker 3>held in Las Vegas, and there was a lot of

534
00:28:44.720 --> 00:28:48.000
<v Speaker 3>interest because this is kind of the foray into SC

535
00:28:48.359 --> 00:28:51.799
<v Speaker 3>being a part of a whole new division. Yeah, and

536
00:28:51.839 --> 00:28:55.200
<v Speaker 3>we won, but it was interrupted in the very beginning

537
00:28:55.359 --> 00:28:58.880
<v Speaker 3>by this.

538
00:28:57.279 --> 00:28:59.759
<v Speaker 2>This it's not funny, I don't know, but on the

539
00:28:59.759 --> 00:29:03.559
<v Speaker 2>Ski one to ten of just absolute outrages that would

540
00:29:03.640 --> 00:29:06.799
<v Speaker 2>make you want to get on somebody with a baseball bat.

541
00:29:06.880 --> 00:29:09.160
<v Speaker 2>What is this with eight, ten, eleven?

542
00:29:09.440 --> 00:29:12.440
<v Speaker 3>This is a thirteen. Really, when you're watching the game

543
00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:14.920
<v Speaker 3>now that we're calm, it's a one. It's a two

544
00:29:15.119 --> 00:29:19.559
<v Speaker 3>because you're looking at these two huge conglomerates arguing about money.

545
00:29:20.200 --> 00:29:24.160
<v Speaker 3>But during your game, during the you know, the US Open,

546
00:29:24.440 --> 00:29:27.839
<v Speaker 3>during college football's first weekend. No one wants to you

547
00:29:27.880 --> 00:29:29.440
<v Speaker 3>wait all year for these things.

548
00:29:29.519 --> 00:29:32.839
<v Speaker 2>No, And apparently this is the result of unresolved negotiations

549
00:29:32.839 --> 00:29:35.960
<v Speaker 2>between DirecTV and Disney, resulting in the loss of access

550
00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:40.680
<v Speaker 2>to ESPN ABC owned stations in La San Francisco Bay Area, Fresno,

551
00:29:41.039 --> 00:29:45.559
<v Speaker 2>New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Houston, Raleigh. They also got cut

552
00:29:45.599 --> 00:29:48.400
<v Speaker 2>off last year. Disney and Spectrum, which is the nation's

553
00:29:48.400 --> 00:29:51.240
<v Speaker 2>second largest cable TV provider, we're involved in a nearly

554
00:29:51.319 --> 00:29:54.119
<v Speaker 2>twelve day m pass until coming to an agreement hours

555
00:29:54.160 --> 00:29:57.039
<v Speaker 2>before the first Monday night NFL game of the season.

556
00:29:57.400 --> 00:30:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Like there's a white knuckle finish for you. DirecTV says

557
00:30:01.000 --> 00:30:04.079
<v Speaker 2>Disney offered an extension to keep the channels on the

558
00:30:04.119 --> 00:30:08.279
<v Speaker 2>air and exchange for listen to this direct TV having

559
00:30:08.319 --> 00:30:11.759
<v Speaker 2>to waive all future legal claims that its behavior is

560
00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:15.240
<v Speaker 2>anti competitive. And even if I don't know much about sports,

561
00:30:15.319 --> 00:30:19.000
<v Speaker 2>I can tell you waving all future legal claims tends

562
00:30:19.000 --> 00:30:21.039
<v Speaker 2>to be a bit of a red flag, wouldn't you think?

563
00:30:21.240 --> 00:30:21.480
<v Speaker 7>Yes?

564
00:30:21.720 --> 00:30:24.359
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, so I can understand DirecTV not wanting to

565
00:30:24.519 --> 00:30:26.039
<v Speaker 3>enter into that type of agreement.

566
00:30:26.279 --> 00:30:29.640
<v Speaker 2>What's extra funny is that the Direct TV people are

567
00:30:29.680 --> 00:30:32.759
<v Speaker 2>getting into some smack talk here against old Uncle Walt.

568
00:30:33.000 --> 00:30:38.359
<v Speaker 2>Here's the chief content Officer, Rob thoone of DirecTV, the

569
00:30:38.400 --> 00:30:41.759
<v Speaker 2>Walt Disney companies, once again refusing any accountability to consumers,

570
00:30:41.799 --> 00:30:45.839
<v Speaker 2>distribution partners, and now the American judicial system. Disney's in

571
00:30:45.880 --> 00:30:48.960
<v Speaker 2>the business of creating alternate realities, but this is the

572
00:30:49.000 --> 00:30:51.319
<v Speaker 2>real world where we believe you earn your way and

573
00:30:51.400 --> 00:30:54.799
<v Speaker 2>must answer for your own actions. Honestly, this sounds a

574
00:30:54.799 --> 00:30:59.319
<v Speaker 2>little biting, it's a little bureaucratese. But this is thrown

575
00:30:59.400 --> 00:31:03.440
<v Speaker 2>down in language. This is like saying, you know, here's

576
00:31:03.440 --> 00:31:06.480
<v Speaker 2>a middle finger for you, Uncle Walt, and here is

577
00:31:06.519 --> 00:31:09.880
<v Speaker 2>Disney's response. Well, I'll read the response and then we

578
00:31:09.920 --> 00:31:13.319
<v Speaker 2>can interpret it. While we're open to offering direct TV

579
00:31:13.440 --> 00:31:17.680
<v Speaker 2>flexibility in terms which we've extended to other distributors, we

580
00:31:17.720 --> 00:31:21.240
<v Speaker 2>will not enter into an agreement that undervalues our portfolio

581
00:31:21.319 --> 00:31:23.240
<v Speaker 2>of television channels and programs.

582
00:31:24.160 --> 00:31:28.359
<v Speaker 3>They want more money, they do Disney. They always want

583
00:31:28.359 --> 00:31:28.880
<v Speaker 3>more money.

584
00:31:28.920 --> 00:31:32.440
<v Speaker 2>But honestly, after the acolyte, shouldn't you be a little

585
00:31:32.440 --> 00:31:35.160
<v Speaker 2>bit humble about what you're asking people to cough up?

586
00:31:35.279 --> 00:31:39.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, really, really, so the direct TV guy really

587
00:31:39.920 --> 00:31:43.799
<v Speaker 2>goes for it again down here, He says Disney Disney's

588
00:31:43.880 --> 00:31:48.359
<v Speaker 2>only magic is forcing prices to go up while simultaneously

589
00:31:48.440 --> 00:31:51.799
<v Speaker 2>making its content disappear. I mean, they might as well

590
00:31:51.839 --> 00:31:54.720
<v Speaker 2>just say it's not the happiest place on Earth Disneyland.

591
00:31:54.720 --> 00:31:56.839
<v Speaker 2>Go there and kill yourself. They're really pulling out the

592
00:31:56.880 --> 00:32:00.920
<v Speaker 2>stops here, or like Disney the happy place on Earth

593
00:32:01.200 --> 00:32:03.640
<v Speaker 2>for me to poop on? If it for a triumph

594
00:32:04.039 --> 00:32:09.039
<v Speaker 2>the insult comic dog, we blew right through the box

595
00:32:09.119 --> 00:32:11.319
<v Speaker 2>office results for the weekend. Maybe we'll get to that

596
00:32:11.400 --> 00:32:14.000
<v Speaker 2>later in the show, like say, for instance, if a
