Here's what's 25 00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:51.560 ahead on wake up Call. Eight Orange County firefighters have 26 00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:55.319 been injured SI because of them critically in a rollover crash. 27 00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:57.280 They were on their way back from fighting the fire 28 00:01:57.280 --> 00:01:59.760 that started in tribue O Canyon. Officials say the fire 29 00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:02.920 truck swerved to avoid a ladder in the road, hit 30 00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:04.799 a guard rail, and then rolled over on the two 31 00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:07.519 forty one in Irvine last night. Several of the firefighters 32 00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:12.400 were airlifted to hospitals. Israel has hit several Hesbaalah targets 33 00:02:12.439 --> 00:02:15.400 in Lebanon, following an announcement by the Defense Minister that 34 00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:18.039 a new era in the war along the Northern Front 35 00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:21.520 was beginning. The strikes come following the explosion of Hamas 36 00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:24.840 owned pagers and walkie talkies this week that killed more 37 00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:28.560 than three dozen and injured more than three thousand. We're 38 00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:30.840 going to get the latest on that in a couple 39 00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:36.199 minutes with ABC's Geordana Miller. Oh My O Tani the 40 00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:39.120 La slugger became the first major League player to get 41 00:02:39.199 --> 00:02:42.719 fifty home runs and fifty stolen bases in a single season. 42 00:02:42.759 --> 00:02:45.879 He reached the milestone last night against the Marlins. Only 43 00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:49.800 five players have ever eclipsed forty home runs and forty 44 00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:53.199 stolen bases in the same season. We've got the house 45 00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:55.199 whisper coming up at the bottom of the hour. If 46 00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:58.120 your house is hot, he can help, and why this 47 00:02:58.199 --> 00:03:00.759 weekend might be a good one to grab some popcorn, 48 00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:02.639 curl up on the couch and turn on the TV. 49 00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:04.520 Lots of news shows are hitting the stream. We're going 50 00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:08.080 to be checking with ABC's Jason Nathanson. And if you 51 00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:09.919 don't want to curl up on the couch and you 52 00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:12.759 want to go to the beach, it's Coastal clean Up 53 00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:15.199 Day tomorrow. We're going to be talking to the founder 54 00:03:16.120 --> 00:03:20.039 of the Save Our Beach Group and that's coming up 55 00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:22.599 at five twenty. At six oh five, it's handle on 56 00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:25.439 the news. Insurance companies in California have been ordered to 57 00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:29.280 stop dropping policies for one year. Bill, I'll tell you 58 00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:31.560 about that. Let's get started with some of the stories 59 00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:33.919 coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. 60 00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:36.719 It's a tough time for the Orange County Fire Authority family. 61 00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:39.439 Eight firefighters have been hurt in Orange County when their 62 00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:41.800 fire truck crashed on the two forty one toll Road 63 00:03:41.879 --> 00:03:45.719 in Irvine. Six of the injured firefighters are in critical condition. 64 00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:49.159 CHP says the truck swerved last night to avoid hitting 65 00:03:49.159 --> 00:03:51.520 a ladder on the road and smashed into the guardrail. 66 00:03:51.919 --> 00:03:55.759 OCFA Chief Brian Fannessie says the crew was returning from 67 00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:58.639 the fire burning between Orange County and Riverside County. 68 00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:01.759 You can only imagine how tramat it it is for 69 00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:04.439 their brothers, sister firefighters to see them injured like that 70 00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:05.560 on the freeway. 71 00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:09.120 The CHP kept northbound lanes of the two forty one 72 00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:12.199 closed four hours following the crash. News brought to you 73 00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:15.199 by ruterhroo dot com. Resource centers have been open to 74 00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:18.240 help people impacted by the fires in La Orange, Riverside, 75 00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:21.720 and San Bernardino Counties. One of them is in Lake Elsinore, 76 00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:24.759 close to where more than eighty homes burned. Riverside County 77 00:04:24.759 --> 00:04:28.800 Emergency Management spokesman Shane Reichart says many people had to 78 00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:30.800 get out of their homes with just the clothes on 79 00:04:30.839 --> 00:04:31.439 their backs. 80 00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:35.199 So some people are in need of clothing. Some people 81 00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:38.759 are in need of documentation, so things like their registration, 82 00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:43.600 their marriage certificates, other important documents. 83 00:04:43.839 --> 00:04:46.279 He says. Reps from the DMV and the County Recorder's 84 00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:50.160 office will be helping people get temporary IDs and vital records. 85 00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:53.199 The center opened yesterday and we'll run from noon to 86 00:04:53.319 --> 00:04:55.959 nine Monday through Thursday, and eight to five on Saturdays. 87 00:04:56.639 --> 00:04:59.600 Sheriff's officials say the person who brutally attacked a valet 88 00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:03.759 at Barney's Beanery in West Hollywood also attacked at least 89 00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:06.759 four other people over a span of just about twenty minutes. 90 00:05:07.160 --> 00:05:09.680 The valet was knocked to the ground, stomped on, and 91 00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:12.560 kicked in the head last Saturday night. He remains in 92 00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:14.519 the ICU and the guy who did it is still 93 00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:17.879 on the loose. The Dodgers show, Hey Otani has made 94 00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:21.399 Major League Baseball history, becoming the first player to hit 95 00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:25.040 fifty home runs and steal fifty bases in a single season. 96 00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:28.240 He did it yesterday in the Dodgers game against the Marlins. 97 00:05:28.319 --> 00:05:31.279 As called on AM five to seventy LA Sports. 98 00:05:30.959 --> 00:05:34.000 So Hey Old Tony with an opposer Field home run 99 00:05:34.920 --> 00:05:36.600 fifty fifty. 100 00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:40.360 One a day for sure. 101 00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:44.279 Show Hey went six for six at the plate, smashed 102 00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:46.480 three home runs, two doubles in a single and of 103 00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:49.680 course stole two bases. And he wasn't the only one 104 00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:52.199 who had a good day. The Dodgers beat the Marlins 105 00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:56.000 twenty to four. They're back at home tonight. I would 106 00:05:56.040 --> 00:05:59.319 imagine that Show Hey's going to get quite a warm reception. 107 00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:05.079 Let's say good morning now to ABC's Geordana Miller in Jerusalem. Jordana, 108 00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:07.759 things continue to heat up in the Middle East. Can 109 00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:09.759 you please provide us with the latest. 110 00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:15.040 That's right, we're seeing today some of the most intense 111 00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:19.319 exchanges of fire between Hsbulla and the Israeli Army. We 112 00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:22.079 just got the first kind of look at the numbers, 113 00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:25.399 and about one hundred and forty missiles have been fired 114 00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:28.759 by Hasbella just today. It's only about three in the 115 00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:33.160 afternoon here and they've been fired, dozens of them deep 116 00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:37.079 into Israeli territory. That is, for example, the city of 117 00:06:37.160 --> 00:06:40.600 safid An artist a town that sits on a hill 118 00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:45.480 which has not been evacuated, that coming under dozens of 119 00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:50.519 missiles this morning. Now, the Israeli Army a few hours 120 00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:55.639 ago changed its home Front Command guidelines, asking Israelis in 121 00:06:55.920 --> 00:06:59.600 and around, for example, the city of Safid and further 122 00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:03.759 norse and to the west the Galilee, the Western Galilee, 123 00:07:03.879 --> 00:07:08.480 the Golan Heights to take shelter and stay by their 124 00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:12.519 safe rooms, not to go outside, not to gather. That's 125 00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:14.959 the first change. They did it last night also for 126 00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:19.560 several hours. These are the first changes really in several months, 127 00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:23.600 which it gives you an indication of the intensity of 128 00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:28.360 the firepower that's being exchanged. Now. It all really began 129 00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:32.519 last night when the Israeli Army saw that Husbolla has 130 00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:36.360 looked like they were preparing for a reprisal strike following 131 00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:40.959 the explosion of their devices on Tuesday and Wednesday, and 132 00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:45.199 the very defiant speech of a Husbala leader not in 133 00:07:45.279 --> 00:07:51.680 Husrel on Thursday, who vowed to avenge those attacks. And 134 00:07:52.199 --> 00:07:55.480 so Israel saw the preparations last night, and last night 135 00:07:56.040 --> 00:07:58.480 Israel took out they say. The Army says about a 136 00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:04.720 thousand rocket lawns with rockets inside, and that has that 137 00:08:04.720 --> 00:08:09.639 that also started uh this, you know, this more intensified 138 00:08:10.079 --> 00:08:12.600 level of strikes. And the question is how long will 139 00:08:12.600 --> 00:08:16.639 it go? On for will it stay within these kind 140 00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:20.920 of unwritten rules even though they're striking a little bit further, Uh, 141 00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:24.560 you know south into Israel. They haven't hit, for example, Haifa, 142 00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:30.319 Israel's huge city with hundreds of thousands of residents. Will 143 00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:32.759 will it be at this level for a couple of 144 00:08:32.840 --> 00:08:36.120 days and then die down? Or are we seeing what 145 00:08:36.200 --> 00:08:40.120 could lead to you know, a larger escalation, possibly an 146 00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:44.320 Israeli ground incursion into Lebanon. Right, it's where you know, 147 00:08:44.360 --> 00:08:46.559 it's unclear where this is going right now? 148 00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:50.840 Yeah, And and Jordana, we know that Israel has the 149 00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:54.039 Iron Dome, and you said that they're firing a lot 150 00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:57.159 of rockets and missiles into the area. Are they all 151 00:08:57.200 --> 00:08:58.960 being intercepted or are some getting through? 152 00:09:00.679 --> 00:09:04.039 So many are being intercepted, some are falling in open 153 00:09:04.120 --> 00:09:08.559 fields and setting you know, land on fire. You know, 154 00:09:08.639 --> 00:09:13.000 blazes are burning in parts of northern Israel. That happens 155 00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:16.919 almost every day now. But it's important also to point 156 00:09:16.960 --> 00:09:21.639 out that the Iron Dome deals with really uh, mid 157 00:09:21.759 --> 00:09:27.279 range rockets and short range rockets, the air to the 158 00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:31.399 Patriot system and the David Slange those are other layers 159 00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:34.519 of Israel's air defense system and they're also being employed 160 00:09:34.600 --> 00:09:39.240 right now, it's not just the Iron Dome, and they're 161 00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:42.840 only being employed when they pick up that the missiles 162 00:09:42.879 --> 00:09:46.919 or rockets or drones are heading towards populated areas. Otherwise 163 00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:51.879 they prefer to you know, keep the you know, there's 164 00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:57.080 a you know, the missile that intercepts a rocket mid 165 00:09:57.120 --> 00:10:00.840 air is expensive, and Israel wants to and use them 166 00:10:00.960 --> 00:10:02.679 when they're going to populated areas. 167 00:10:02.759 --> 00:10:04.639 So if they're not really going to hit anything, like 168 00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:06.639 you said, if they're going to just come down in 169 00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:10.000 a field, they'll probably let it go, that's right. 170 00:10:10.039 --> 00:10:12.600 They prefer to let them fall in an open field, 171 00:10:13.879 --> 00:10:17.120 you know, that's right. And that again, every day there's 172 00:10:17.159 --> 00:10:21.360 fields on fire. That's been part of what's happening in 173 00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:25.360 the North. It's clear that you know, Israeli leaders, including 174 00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:27.639 the Prime Minister and the Defense Minister, who've had a 175 00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:31.200 lot of disputes over the last several months, it seems 176 00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:33.720 that they are now on the same page that the 177 00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:38.480 war focus is shifting from Gaza to the North, and 178 00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:43.879 you know, Israel pushing really up to that line before 179 00:10:44.519 --> 00:10:47.960 maybe an open war, you know, And the question is 180 00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:50.600 what is Israel's intentions and I think this is where 181 00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:53.559 it gets dangerous and unclear. You know, is Israel pushing 182 00:10:53.919 --> 00:10:57.279 so that has Ball of backs down and decides maybe 183 00:10:57.320 --> 00:10:59.240 we don't want to go to war with Israel right now, 184 00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:02.480 right and Israel has said you know that, people have 185 00:11:02.600 --> 00:11:05.080 implied you know, we have other surprises for you besides 186 00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:07.480 what happened with the Pagers, right even though they have 187 00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:11.840 not technically or officially climbed that strip. Maybe Hasbolla will 188 00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:15.080 back down, but maybe it'll produce exactly the opposite. Maybe 189 00:11:15.159 --> 00:11:18.639 has Bolla will you know, big their heels in and say, 190 00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:21.200 you know, we're going to go to war. So I 191 00:11:21.240 --> 00:11:24.320 think you know, haustin Nosralla, the leader of Hasbola, left 192 00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:25.799 open the option of war. 193 00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:30.399 Okay, Gosha. So it's just everything is so complicated, and 194 00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:33.960 we appreciate it. We appreciate you helping to sort it 195 00:11:33.960 --> 00:11:36.600 out because like we said, it's just all these layers 196 00:11:36.600 --> 00:11:39.840 of this onion and there's not an easy answer to anything. 197 00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:42.840 So well, stay safe and we will talk to you soon, 198 00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:45.600 and thanks again, and have a good weekend. Okay, all right, 199 00:11:45.639 --> 00:11:49.360 take care. Yeah, by my goodness, it just gets more 200 00:11:49.480 --> 00:11:53.240 and more unsettling. Let's get back to some of the 201 00:11:53.240 --> 00:11:55.720 stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsrooms. 202 00:11:55.720 --> 00:11:58.159 Some people in Marina del Rey say the owner of 203 00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:00.759 the yacht that cut, caught fire and sank in the 204 00:12:00.799 --> 00:12:03.679 harbor was constantly partying on the boat. 205 00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:05.759 People in the area say the owner of the boat 206 00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:08.960 is known for throwing parties with lots of alcohol and pot. 207 00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:11.960 Curtis Burnett lives nearby and says he's not surprised the 208 00:12:12.039 --> 00:12:13.440 yacht went down in a blade. 209 00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:16.200 There's always people coming and going on the boat. They 210 00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:19.840 apparently lived on the boat, and I was always concerned 211 00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:23.159 about what possibly may happen. 212 00:12:23.320 --> 00:12:25.759 Fireworks popped off and explosions were heard as the boat 213 00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:28.559 burned and sank Wednesday night, leaking thousands of gallons of 214 00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:31.360 diesel fuel into the harbor. LA County Fire says it's 215 00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:37.679 investigating exactly what sparked the fire. Chris Adler, KFI News Circumental. 216 00:12:47.320 --> 00:12:49.720 Two former Disney stars have released a song about their 217 00:12:49.759 --> 00:12:52.240 experience with the mass shooting. They heard the mass shooting 218 00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:56.000 from their bus in Sacramento in twenty twenty hours after 219 00:12:56.039 --> 00:12:59.080 a performance at the Crest Theater. Allie and aj are 220 00:12:59.080 --> 00:13:02.200 demanding gun refer in the US six people were killed, 221 00:13:02.320 --> 00:13:06.200 twelve others wounded when at least when several people opened 222 00:13:06.240 --> 00:13:09.840 fire on a crowd on K Street. New research shows 223 00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:14.320 how COVID nineteen most likely started. ABC's Derek Dennis says 224 00:13:14.600 --> 00:13:18.320 scientists researching the origins of COVID have identified some animals 225 00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:20.679 that possibly sped the virus to people. 226 00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:25.240 Researchers analyzed genetic material gathered from the Chinese market in Wuhan, 227 00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:27.519 where the first outbreak was detected, and found the most 228 00:13:27.720 --> 00:13:31.279 likely animals spreading COVID were raccoon dogs, civet cats, and 229 00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:32.279 bamboom rats. 230 00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:36.559 Dennis says the scientists suspect the infected animals were first 231 00:13:36.600 --> 00:13:39.720 brought to the Wuhan market in late twenty nineteen and 232 00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:43.600 somehow infected humans. A man who claims his thumb was 233 00:13:43.679 --> 00:13:47.240 severed in the San Diego Central Jail has sued the county. 234 00:13:47.679 --> 00:13:49.840 The man says when he was an inmate in July 235 00:13:49.919 --> 00:13:51.639 of last year, he was lined up for a pat 236 00:13:51.679 --> 00:13:54.120 down and he was told to stand past a red 237 00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:57.440 line that showed where it is safe to stand. He says, 238 00:13:57.480 --> 00:13:59.960 as he stood there, a deputy shut a sliding door 239 00:14:00.200 --> 00:14:03.320 and severed his thumb. He says. Deputies then told him 240 00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:06.399 it's not that bad and taunted him for the remainder 241 00:14:06.440 --> 00:14:12.159 of his time in jail by giving him a thumbs up. Okay, 242 00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:15.320 so a week from today, we're going over the edge 243 00:14:15.399 --> 00:14:18.679 for the Union Rescue Mission. I'm going to do it. 244 00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:22.320 Neil Sevadra is gonna do it. And again we're raising 245 00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:25.679 money for the Union Rescue Mission, which is an organization 246 00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:29.000 that actually helps homeless people. We keep hearing about how 247 00:14:29.039 --> 00:14:32.000 money is being thrown at the homeless problem, and we 248 00:14:32.120 --> 00:14:35.799 see it it's just getting worse. But the Union Rescue 249 00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:40.320 Mission actually helps people. Their shelters are dry, no drugs, 250 00:14:40.360 --> 00:14:43.039 no alcohol involves, so the people who really want help 251 00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:44.679 are the ones who are getting it. They also have 252 00:14:44.799 --> 00:14:49.080 transitional housing, they have ged programs, job training, all this 253 00:14:49.159 --> 00:14:52.519 stuff to actually help people get back on their feet 254 00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:56.240 and get off the streets permanently. That's why both Neil 255 00:14:56.279 --> 00:14:59.600 and I are behind this because it's different, it makes 256 00:14:59.639 --> 00:15:02.639 a different rants, and eighty six cents out of every 257 00:15:02.679 --> 00:15:05.559 dollar goes directly to benefit the people who need it most. 258 00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:08.519 We're going to repel twenty five stories off the Universal 259 00:15:08.600 --> 00:15:14.559 Hilton on Friday, September twenty seventh, we need your help 260 00:15:14.600 --> 00:15:16.600 to do it.

And want to say thanks 264 00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:31.279 to Kim and Eric and Jan who donated to the cause, 265 00:15:31.360 --> 00:15:33.039 and I hope you'll join them again. We're going to 266 00:15:33.080 --> 00:15:35.720 be doing this a week from Friday, going over the 267 00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:39.159 edge for the Union rescue mission. Please join us and 268 00:15:39.440 --> 00:15:42.600 donate if you can.

Sean Diddycombe's lawyer plans to 276 00:16:04.799 --> 00:16:08.360 appeal his bail denial for a third time. Two judges 277 00:16:08.399 --> 00:16:10.600 have already said no Combs. His lawyers also trying to 278 00:16:10.600 --> 00:16:13.440 get Combs moved to a jail in New Jersey, where 279 00:16:13.440 --> 00:16:15.399 he says comes will be able to better prepare for 280 00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:18.799 his upcoming trial. The John Wayne Airport is the best 281 00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:22.279 one in the US. The twenty twenty four North American 282 00:16:22.320 --> 00:16:26.240 Airport Satisfaction Survey from JD Power shows the airport in 283 00:16:26.279 --> 00:16:29.799 Orange County is the best large airport in the United States. 284 00:16:30.039 --> 00:16:32.720 The rankings are based on customer satisfaction on things like 285 00:16:32.840 --> 00:16:36.360 terminal facilities, airport staff, and how easy it is to 286 00:16:36.440 --> 00:16:39.759 travel through the airport. At six oh five, it's handle 287 00:16:39.840 --> 00:16:43.879 on the news.

Specifically, I'm the president and founder of Saber Beach, 298 00:17:13.480 --> 00:17:17.000 which is located here in Seal Beach, and we are 299 00:17:17.039 --> 00:17:20.480 celebrating our twenty fifth year of doing Coastal Cleanup Day. 300 00:17:21.759 --> 00:17:25.279 The Coastal Cleanup itself is in its fortieth year, so 301 00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:29.759 Coastal Cleanup Day is all over California. We are specifically 302 00:17:29.880 --> 00:17:30.599 in Seal. 303 00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:34.440 Beach, okay, And and you said it's going on all 304 00:17:34.480 --> 00:17:37.000 over California. We'll mention a few of the places that 305 00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:40.640 you can go and do cleanups, but for yours specifically, 306 00:17:41.079 --> 00:17:43.480 when are you doing it and what are you looking for? 307 00:17:43.599 --> 00:17:45.400 Do you still need volunteers? 308 00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:49.400 We always need volunteers. Unfortunately, there's an endless supply of 309 00:17:49.519 --> 00:17:52.559 trash that comes down the river here in Seal Beach. 310 00:17:53.680 --> 00:17:58.400 Our cleanup is this Saturday in Seal Beach on starts 311 00:17:58.440 --> 00:18:01.960 at nine am through now. We'll have two locations, one 312 00:18:01.960 --> 00:18:04.799 at the first Street Beach parking lot and one at 313 00:18:04.799 --> 00:18:08.319 the pier. We are expecting around one thousand people, but 314 00:18:08.480 --> 00:18:10.119 we always got room for more. 315 00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:12.200 Okay, And do you need to register? Can you just 316 00:18:12.240 --> 00:18:12.640 show up? 317 00:18:13.640 --> 00:18:16.720 You can register at Save Ourbeach dot org or you 318 00:18:16.759 --> 00:18:20.000 can just show up and register at the cleanup okay. 319 00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:22.920 Perfect. And also just so you guys know, as you're listening, 320 00:18:22.960 --> 00:18:25.839 if you're missing the addresses, you can get a complete 321 00:18:25.880 --> 00:18:31.039 list of not only the save our beach in Seal Beach, 322 00:18:31.319 --> 00:18:35.240 but also all over the state in southern California. KFIAM 323 00:18:35.240 --> 00:18:37.799 six forty dot com slash wake up call. We've got 324 00:18:37.799 --> 00:18:39.799 a complete list. So what kind of things are you 325 00:18:39.839 --> 00:18:40.680 picking up? Steve? 326 00:18:42.279 --> 00:18:46.079 Unfortunately, it's anything and everything. The biggest item that we'll 327 00:18:46.079 --> 00:18:49.799 find is styrofoam. That's the one item that continues to 328 00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:52.759 break down and people pick up. But we get everything 329 00:18:52.960 --> 00:18:57.680 from couches to half a bowling ball. It's unusual, but 330 00:18:58.079 --> 00:19:02.759 it's always out there. But there's a never shortage of 331 00:19:02.839 --> 00:19:05.799 things to pick up. The small stuff is just important 332 00:19:05.920 --> 00:19:08.319 is the big stuff, because the small stuff will actually 333 00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:10.680 harm ocean life, and so we want to get that 334 00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:15.440 just as importantly. So, but we supply bags, gloves, pickers, 335 00:19:15.480 --> 00:19:19.400 free parking, so we try to make it as easy 336 00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:22.480 and as fun to do something good for mother Earth. 337 00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:24.799 Absolutely. And is the stuff that you find, is it 338 00:19:24.880 --> 00:19:27.920 dumped or left behind, or is washed up or just 339 00:19:27.960 --> 00:19:29.119 a combination of everything. 340 00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:33.400 It's a combination. Some of it's left behind, but some 341 00:19:33.480 --> 00:19:35.759 of it washes down the river. Some of it comes 342 00:19:35.839 --> 00:19:38.640 back to shore off the bottom of the ocean as 343 00:19:38.680 --> 00:19:41.920 the tide comes in. But we get a lot coming 344 00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:44.759 down the river. Here in se A Beach specifically, we 345 00:19:44.799 --> 00:19:47.160 have fifty two cities that flow into the sand Gable 346 00:19:47.240 --> 00:19:51.519 River that create the mountains of trash, especially after the 347 00:19:51.559 --> 00:19:53.839 first rain. And so really what we're trying to do 348 00:19:53.880 --> 00:19:56.799 here is to get the trash before the first rain comes. 349 00:19:57.119 --> 00:20:00.200 I hate to hear that the mountains of trash. So, 350 00:20:00.359 --> 00:20:04.480 Steve is the is the problem getting worse? Is it 351 00:20:04.519 --> 00:20:05.640 getting a little better? 352 00:20:07.079 --> 00:20:10.160 Oh? No, we have made progress in twenty five years. 353 00:20:10.799 --> 00:20:13.599 It was nothing to have one hundred people untill five 354 00:20:13.680 --> 00:20:17.200 or six numpters. Now it's hard to get five or 355 00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:20.079 six dumpsters, but which is a good problem to have. 356 00:20:20.160 --> 00:20:23.799 So we've made some serious progress. We've got some quantum 357 00:20:23.880 --> 00:20:26.720 leafs that we're going to make moving forward. We're working 358 00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:30.759 on a self contained trash wheel that will go out 359 00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:34.720 during these flushes, so we expect that sometime next year 360 00:20:34.759 --> 00:20:37.880 to get launched.
