00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.919
<v Speaker 1>This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI

00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:05.839
<v Speaker 1>AM six forty the Gary and Shannon Show on demand

3
00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:07.280
<v Speaker 1>on the iHeartRadio app.

4
00:00:07.320 --> 00:00:07.519
<v Speaker 2>Well.

5
00:00:07.559 --> 00:00:10.919
<v Speaker 3>For the second time in as many attempts, Twitter blew

6
00:00:10.960 --> 00:00:11.640
<v Speaker 3>it yesterday.

7
00:00:11.720 --> 00:00:13.439
<v Speaker 4>The social media site was glitchy.

8
00:00:13.480 --> 00:00:15.480
<v Speaker 3>A bunch of people couldn't listen to the interview that

9
00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:18.679
<v Speaker 3>Elon Musk was doing with Donald Trump when he started

10
00:00:18.679 --> 00:00:21.199
<v Speaker 3>about forty five minutes late. Elon Musk said there appeared

11
00:00:21.199 --> 00:00:24.120
<v Speaker 3>to be a massive d doos attack on Twitter and

12
00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:26.679
<v Speaker 3>working on shutting it down, and that they were going

13
00:00:26.719 --> 00:00:29.239
<v Speaker 3>to proceed with the interview, but it started about forty

14
00:00:29.239 --> 00:00:29.920
<v Speaker 3>five minutes late.

15
00:00:29.960 --> 00:00:31.359
<v Speaker 4>It did go for about two hours.

16
00:00:32.119 --> 00:00:37.359
<v Speaker 1>Protesters with the with an organization that I will not

17
00:00:37.520 --> 00:00:41.000
<v Speaker 1>name AH took over the four oh five this morning

18
00:00:41.039 --> 00:00:45.240
<v Speaker 1>in West LA terrible move, demanding a ceasefire in the

19
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:48.920
<v Speaker 1>Israel Hamas war colin to it arms embargo, so they

20
00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:51.439
<v Speaker 1>shut it down just south of the ten. If you

21
00:00:51.560 --> 00:00:55.399
<v Speaker 1>want to piss people off and get them further against you,

22
00:00:55.840 --> 00:01:00.479
<v Speaker 1>shut down the four five. That'll really ingratiate you to

23
00:01:00.759 --> 00:01:02.359
<v Speaker 1>the greater Los Angeles area.

24
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:06.920
<v Speaker 3>Moron, Oh, we have got to do the Gavenusom story

25
00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:08.599
<v Speaker 3>which one the photographer.

26
00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:10.400
<v Speaker 5>I do not know this story.

27
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:13.959
<v Speaker 3>All right, Well, we'll do it later this hour and

28
00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:17.000
<v Speaker 3>expand on it. But I will just say this. The office,

29
00:01:17.319 --> 00:01:21.879
<v Speaker 3>the Governor's office is defending the hiring of a director

30
00:01:21.920 --> 00:01:26.599
<v Speaker 3>of photography m A two hundred thousand dollars a year

31
00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:28.280
<v Speaker 3>director of photography.

32
00:01:28.480 --> 00:01:31.120
<v Speaker 5>Wow to the Governor's office. That's incredible.

33
00:01:31.319 --> 00:01:34.439
<v Speaker 1>But if there's something that he likes, it's favorable lighting

34
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:35.200
<v Speaker 1>and good hair.

35
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:37.879
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, all right.

36
00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:40.760
<v Speaker 1>So two former La County Sheriff's deputies and two former

37
00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:46.280
<v Speaker 1>foreign military officials have been charged with threatening a Chinese

38
00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:50.760
<v Speaker 1>national and his family with violence and deportation. It was

39
00:01:50.760 --> 00:01:54.560
<v Speaker 1>a sham raid at this guy's home in Orange County

40
00:01:54.599 --> 00:01:58.599
<v Speaker 1>five years ago. They demanded thirty seven million dollars and

41
00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:02.400
<v Speaker 1>the rights to the man's business. So they've been a

42
00:02:02.519 --> 00:02:05.680
<v Speaker 1>ragin this week on charges of conspiracy to commit extortion,

43
00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:09.400
<v Speaker 1>attempted extortion, conspiracy against rights, and deprivation of rights under

44
00:02:09.400 --> 00:02:10.280
<v Speaker 1>the color of law.

45
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:13.240
<v Speaker 5>All I pleaded not guilty.

46
00:02:13.479 --> 00:02:17.680
<v Speaker 3>So these two sheriff's deputies and the two former soldiers

47
00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:21.080
<v Speaker 3>from Australia and Great Britain go to this guy's house

48
00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:24.240
<v Speaker 3>in June of twenty nineteen and they force him, his wife,

49
00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:27.479
<v Speaker 3>and their two kids into a single room for several hours.

50
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:30.240
<v Speaker 3>They take their phones, and they threaten to deport him

51
00:02:30.280 --> 00:02:32.039
<v Speaker 3>unless he complies with their demands.

52
00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:37.039
<v Speaker 4>Now he's a legal permanent resident. Keep that in mind.

53
00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:37.520
<v Speaker 5>They said.

54
00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:41.240
<v Speaker 1>The man slammed the business guy against the wall, choked him.

55
00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:45.520
<v Speaker 1>Fearing for his and his family's safety, he signed documents

56
00:02:45.639 --> 00:02:49.360
<v Speaker 1>relinquishing his multi million dollar interest in a tech firm,

57
00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:52.400
<v Speaker 1>a China based company that makes rubber chemicals.

58
00:02:54.439 --> 00:02:58.479
<v Speaker 3>The money behind all of this, by the way, was

59
00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:02.879
<v Speaker 3>his business partner, a Chinese woman, not indicted, but they

60
00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:05.919
<v Speaker 3>said that all of this was her idea.

61
00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:06.680
<v Speaker 5>Ah.

62
00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:10.080
<v Speaker 3>I see, they had been fighting legal disputes over the

63
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:12.680
<v Speaker 3>company in the United States and China for more than

64
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:13.960
<v Speaker 3>a decade.

65
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:17.879
<v Speaker 1>So she hired these guys as hit men, financial hit men,

66
00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:21.000
<v Speaker 1>so to speak. Basically, now here's the problem. One of

67
00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:22.800
<v Speaker 1>the men charged is a guy by the name of

68
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:26.439
<v Speaker 1>Stephen Langford. He retired from the La County Sheriff's Department

69
00:03:26.479 --> 00:03:29.840
<v Speaker 1>in twenty twenty, but he was a pretty big deal

70
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:32.800
<v Speaker 1>in the Sheriff's department. Had his hands on a lot

71
00:03:32.840 --> 00:03:36.479
<v Speaker 1>of big cases. And now all the people that he

72
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:41.639
<v Speaker 1>helped put Away get to raise their hands and say this.

73
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:44.120
<v Speaker 5>Guy is not above board, he is dirty.

74
00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:47.800
<v Speaker 1>It's a Brady violation, and it puts all those cases

75
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:52.000
<v Speaker 1>in jeopardy, creates a lot more work for the current

76
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:54.159
<v Speaker 1>law enforcement structure that exists.

77
00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:58.879
<v Speaker 3>So the first person Langford wasn't apparently the first person

78
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:01.400
<v Speaker 3>of this group. Glenn Cozart of Upland used to be

79
00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:03.879
<v Speaker 3>a shriff's deputy. He was the one who was originally

80
00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:08.439
<v Speaker 3>hired and then brought on Langford, who in turn was

81
00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:12.120
<v Speaker 3>hired by Max Samuel Bennett Turbot. That's a lot of names,

82
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:15.560
<v Speaker 3>thirty nine year old British citizen, former member of the

83
00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:19.160
<v Speaker 3>British Military Prosecutors said that Turbot was hired by the

84
00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:22.000
<v Speaker 3>Chinese businesswoman who financed the bogus rate. And then there

85
00:04:22.040 --> 00:04:25.639
<v Speaker 3>was another guy, Matthew Hart, a forty one year old

86
00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:28.839
<v Speaker 3>Australian citizen who's also been charged in this case. And

87
00:04:29.279 --> 00:04:32.959
<v Speaker 3>if convicted, each of these guys could face up to

88
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:36.079
<v Speaker 3>twenty years in federal prison. And like you said, the

89
00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:40.360
<v Speaker 3>repercussions of potentially the shriff's deputy having his hand in

90
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:43.319
<v Speaker 3>all of these all of these other cases that now

91
00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:45.079
<v Speaker 3>are up.

92
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:47.519
<v Speaker 4>In the air. They're all being questioned.

93
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Right, And the law enforcement structure that exists now is

94
00:04:52.079 --> 00:04:54.120
<v Speaker 1>a lot more flimsy than it was when he was

95
00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:58.079
<v Speaker 1>handling cases. So it's good news for a lot of criminals.

96
00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:02.279
<v Speaker 1>This DA doesn't do anything about pains.

97
00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:04.560
<v Speaker 3>A reminder that next week we are going to be

98
00:05:04.639 --> 00:05:09.240
<v Speaker 3>live in Chicago for the Democratic National Convention. It could

99
00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:14.480
<v Speaker 3>be crazy, It could be absolutely bonkers, depending on how

100
00:05:14.519 --> 00:05:17.160
<v Speaker 3>things go, both inside and outside the Convention Center. It's

101
00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:19.439
<v Speaker 3>at the United Center. It's where the Chicago Bulls play,

102
00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:20.879
<v Speaker 3>the Blackhawks play there too.

103
00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:24.959
<v Speaker 1>We're set up right next to a magnificent Michael Jordan

104
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:27.160
<v Speaker 1>statue that I can't wait to climb.

105
00:05:27.519 --> 00:05:29.680
<v Speaker 4>Probably not available for climbing.

106
00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:31.480
<v Speaker 5>We'll see about that.

107
00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:33.600
<v Speaker 3>I mean, maybe it's one of those like let your

108
00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:36.000
<v Speaker 3>kids run the bases at Dodger Stadium. Maybe there's a

109
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:38.480
<v Speaker 3>day at United Center where they're like, let your friend

110
00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:40.000
<v Speaker 3>climb the Michael Jordan's.

111
00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:42.000
<v Speaker 5>Well, well, I did notice that it was roped off,

112
00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:43.399
<v Speaker 5>but I mean.

113
00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:46.279
<v Speaker 3>I think there were actual glass walls. It wasn't just

114
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:46.959
<v Speaker 3>roped off.

115
00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:50.240
<v Speaker 5>They were not glass walls. It was just a slight roping.

116
00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:53.160
<v Speaker 1>And there's just like Jim Harbaugh taught me, I'll walk

117
00:05:53.279 --> 00:05:55.720
<v Speaker 1>up right to that line and I'll cross it and

118
00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:58.920
<v Speaker 1>then blast through whatever glass walls. Hey, if I get arrested,

119
00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:03.040
<v Speaker 1>that's good for the show. If I get arrested, it's

120
00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:06.480
<v Speaker 1>even better, because yeah, that's true. But if I got

121
00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:11.439
<v Speaker 1>arrested for climbing on a Michael Jordan statue, the mileage

122
00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:13.240
<v Speaker 1>we could get out of that, that is true. I

123
00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:16.120
<v Speaker 1>mean I got caught with a sight or at Dodger Stadium,

124
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:17.920
<v Speaker 1>and I've brought it up seven hundred times.

125
00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:20.519
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, you have to get T shirts printed.

126
00:06:20.680 --> 00:06:21.360
<v Speaker 5>Oh my gosh.

127
00:06:21.439 --> 00:06:23.680
<v Speaker 3>So just so everybody knows, yes, we will be doing

128
00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:27.720
<v Speaker 3>the show live from Chicago all week next week talking

129
00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:29.759
<v Speaker 3>about what's going on in the convention. We'll be talking

130
00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:32.120
<v Speaker 3>about our opinions of what's going on at the convention,

131
00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:35.600
<v Speaker 3>et cetera. And we wanted to go to the Republican Convention.

132
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:38.839
<v Speaker 3>We wanted to. The financials didn't work out.

133
00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:41.399
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, the sales department didn't get it zact together.

134
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:42.959
<v Speaker 4>There wasn't anybody on this floor.

135
00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:45.519
<v Speaker 5>I know that we will nobody on this floor.

00:07:36.079 --> 00:07:39.399
<v Speaker 6>with the doorbell I work from home and it drives

156
00:07:39.399 --> 00:07:43.240
<v Speaker 6>my dogs crazy, which drives me crazy. Please don't make

157
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:46.519
<v Speaker 6>me change stations. I love you guys, but no more

158
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:50.360
<v Speaker 6>commercials with doorbells. Please, very very frustrating.

159
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:51.720
<v Speaker 5>There's this station that I listen.

160
00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:53.240
<v Speaker 3>Do you want to go for a walk? You want

161
00:07:53.240 --> 00:07:55.399
<v Speaker 3>to go for a walk? Oh no, oh, let's go

162
00:07:55.439 --> 00:07:58.439
<v Speaker 3>for a walk. No w A l K, let's go

163
00:07:58.480 --> 00:08:01.759
<v Speaker 3>for a walk. Stop it, you're horrible. That's worse than

164
00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:04.800
<v Speaker 3>saying mamesa. My dog's probably freaking out right now too.

165
00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:06.600
<v Speaker 5>Your dog's not listening to this show?

166
00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:08.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, is the r one.

167
00:08:08.720 --> 00:08:12.199
<v Speaker 1>But like, a certain annoying ad can really make you

168
00:08:12.240 --> 00:08:14.079
<v Speaker 1>stop listening to a particular station.

169
00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:14.639
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

170
00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:16.839
<v Speaker 1>Like, there's a station that I listen to from time

171
00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:20.560
<v Speaker 1>to time, and it's got the most annoying, disgusting ad

172
00:08:21.079 --> 00:08:25.160
<v Speaker 1>on it, and it's about a woman and she's talking

173
00:08:25.160 --> 00:08:30.279
<v Speaker 1>about her husband's yellow, crusty toes and it's disgusting and

174
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:33.600
<v Speaker 1>it plays all the time, and it makes me never

175
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:34.679
<v Speaker 1>want to listen to that station.

176
00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:38.200
<v Speaker 3>I'm awful. And the thing is, I don't even know.

177
00:08:38.799 --> 00:08:40.840
<v Speaker 3>I don't know the commercial that she's talking about. I

178
00:08:40.879 --> 00:08:42.399
<v Speaker 3>don't know the one that's got right either.

179
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:45.360
<v Speaker 1>But I feel bad about it because I understand how

180
00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:45.960
<v Speaker 1>that can happen.

181
00:08:46.840 --> 00:08:52.159
<v Speaker 3>Laguna Beach c's about six million tourists a year, but

182
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:56.480
<v Speaker 3>residents who live there say the challenges that these tourists

183
00:08:56.639 --> 00:09:00.240
<v Speaker 3>bring have begun to outweigh the benefits, mostly because people

184
00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:03.399
<v Speaker 3>don't pay attention to the rules at the beach. People

185
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:05.759
<v Speaker 3>wading into the water and the tide pools when they're

186
00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:08.720
<v Speaker 3>not supposed to. Laguna officials have gone to the city

187
00:09:08.759 --> 00:09:11.600
<v Speaker 3>council over and over again and urged officials to do

188
00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:15.840
<v Speaker 3>something to address the challenges brought on by these tourists.

189
00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:17.840
<v Speaker 3>And one of the things they have said is, hey,

190
00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:22.120
<v Speaker 3>just start issuing tickets for what is already illegal, which

191
00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:26.960
<v Speaker 3>is smoking. You can't drink in public, you can't litter,

192
00:09:27.399 --> 00:09:29.519
<v Speaker 3>you can't bring a pop up tent that's more than

193
00:09:29.559 --> 00:09:32.320
<v Speaker 3>six feet wide. All of those things they said, if

194
00:09:32.360 --> 00:09:34.039
<v Speaker 3>you were able to crack down on it would make

195
00:09:34.080 --> 00:09:35.879
<v Speaker 3>a big difference in terms of.

196
00:09:37.480 --> 00:09:40.320
<v Speaker 4>In terms of just the likeability. Perhaps.

197
00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:45.240
<v Speaker 3>Other people said that the influx of visitors also taxing resources,

198
00:09:45.639 --> 00:09:48.320
<v Speaker 3>because lifeguards have had to pull twenty two hundred people

199
00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:50.559
<v Speaker 3>from the water over the Fourth of July weekend and

200
00:09:51.279 --> 00:09:54.840
<v Speaker 3>since Memorial Day. Ocean rescues are up four hundred percent

201
00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:55.679
<v Speaker 3>since last year.

202
00:09:55.840 --> 00:10:00.279
<v Speaker 1>I love the way it's written in the La Times.

203
00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:04.320
<v Speaker 1>From the exclusive Montage resort, where an ocean view room

204
00:10:04.440 --> 00:10:08.360
<v Speaker 1>costs upwards of one thousand dollars per night, a colony

205
00:10:08.399 --> 00:10:14.200
<v Speaker 1>of seagulls battled over a costco retisserie Chicken carcass, like,

206
00:10:14.320 --> 00:10:18.960
<v Speaker 1>if that's if that's your plight, is a Costco, how

207
00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:22.639
<v Speaker 1>how dare I have to look at a five dollars

208
00:10:23.320 --> 00:10:24.120
<v Speaker 1>still five dollars?

209
00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:24.440
<v Speaker 4>I think?

210
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:27.720
<v Speaker 1>How dare I have to look at the carcass of

211
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:31.320
<v Speaker 1>a five dollars meal when I am paying one thousand

212
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:37.720
<v Speaker 1>dollars a night at the Montage? Ridiculous. I don't feel

213
00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:40.000
<v Speaker 1>bad for you. I just don't well.

214
00:10:40.039 --> 00:10:41.480
<v Speaker 2>And what is the.

215
00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:46.159
<v Speaker 4>I don't know what's the what's the downside?

216
00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:49.759
<v Speaker 3>The upside they're hoping would be more maybe tax revenue

217
00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:52.279
<v Speaker 3>or ticket revenue than which that would be coming in.

218
00:10:52.960 --> 00:10:56.360
<v Speaker 3>And then the downside is you get to live in

219
00:10:56.360 --> 00:10:59.559
<v Speaker 3>one of the most beautiful places in a beautiful rich.

220
00:10:59.440 --> 00:11:03.039
<v Speaker 1>People that complaining about the pores coming in in the

221
00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:06.360
<v Speaker 1>summer and eating their five dollars chicken, they don't.

222
00:11:06.159 --> 00:11:08.559
<v Speaker 5>Want to be They don't have to see the pores.

223
00:11:10.399 --> 00:11:11.879
<v Speaker 2>That it's not that.

224
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:17.840
<v Speaker 7>Is that just assured me that I called.

225
00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:22.039
<v Speaker 5>Wait, why did you play?

226
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:26.720
<v Speaker 1>That just assured me that.

227
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:29.879
<v Speaker 6>I call it speak and saw the.

228
00:11:29.840 --> 00:11:36.799
<v Speaker 3>Cow because of your succulent Costco rotisserie chicken.

229
00:11:36.840 --> 00:11:39.759
<v Speaker 5>Ah, my succulent Costco chicken.

230
00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:42.200
<v Speaker 4>Uh.

231
00:11:42.240 --> 00:11:45.159
<v Speaker 3>They have formed a committee dedicated to addressing visitor issues

232
00:11:45.159 --> 00:11:47.960
<v Speaker 3>there in Laguna, They've launched an ad campaign on Google

233
00:11:48.039 --> 00:11:51.519
<v Speaker 3>to target misbehaving tourists. These ads are going to run

234
00:11:51.559 --> 00:11:54.080
<v Speaker 3>for the rest of the summer and talk about the

235
00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:57.039
<v Speaker 3>common complaints, the litter of the cigarette smoke and the

236
00:11:57.159 --> 00:12:01.440
<v Speaker 3>loud vehicle exhaust So my mother now lives in Laguna.

237
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:05.399

<v Speaker 5>You could put that creative with some rice, with some

285
00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:52.879
<v Speaker 5>black beans. Is that a farting sound?

286
00:13:53.120 --> 00:14:01.000
<v Speaker 1>No, us, come on it. We're much more grown up, right. Actually,

287
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:03.919
<v Speaker 1>the boss told me, Debra yesterday. She brought me into

288
00:14:03.960 --> 00:14:05.879
<v Speaker 1>her office and she said, I need you to grow up.

289
00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:13.279
<v Speaker 2>Really hysterical.

290
00:14:13.399 --> 00:14:13.840

<v Speaker 3>trying to avoid Minnesota, Minnesota, trying to avoid the fate

293
00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:24.320
<v Speaker 3>of a couple of her closest allies. They're holding a

294
00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:28.240
<v Speaker 3>primary election today. She's defending her a fifth district seat

295
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:31.799
<v Speaker 3>against a repeat challenge from former Minneapolis City council member

296
00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:35.879
<v Speaker 3>Don Samuels, happens to be a much more centrist Democrat,

297
00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:38.399
<v Speaker 3>whom she narrowly defeated just a couple of years ago.

298
00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:42.759
<v Speaker 3>Tropical Storm Ernesto expected to lash the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico,

<v Speaker 3>other parts of the Caribbean today.

300
00:14:44.200 --> 00:14:46.480
<v Speaker 4>That storm could reach hurricane strength later this week.

301
00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Hey, we do have to get into this Gavin Newsome

302
00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:53.279
<v Speaker 1>story coming up next, the one you alerted me to

303
00:14:53.320 --> 00:14:58.080
<v Speaker 1>the fact that he has hired a official photographer who

304
00:14:58.279 --> 00:15:00.559
<v Speaker 1>is going to make more than the Secretary of State.

305
00:15:02.200 --> 00:15:03.919
<v Speaker 4>Well, it's a lot of photo editing.

306
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:06.960
<v Speaker 3>I assume of Gavin Newsom, we'd make him look smart

307
00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:08.320
<v Speaker 3>and strong and tough.

308
00:15:08.360 --> 00:15:10.960
<v Speaker 4>Guy. M tough guy, dude.

309
00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:13.240
<v Speaker 6>I just had to chime in about Laguna Beach.

310
00:15:14.080 --> 00:15:15.799
<v Speaker 2>I have a couple of clients that live there that

311
00:15:15.879 --> 00:15:18.559
<v Speaker 2>I got to deal with, which means I gotta go there.

312
00:15:19.639 --> 00:15:19.960
<v Speaker 6>Dude.

313
00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:23.960
<v Speaker 2>Laguna sucks. It's full of Karen's no parking.

314
00:15:25.480 --> 00:15:26.720
<v Speaker 6>It's just nonsense. Man.

315
00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:31.240
<v Speaker 2>Other than the view, Laguna Beach is not even worth

316
00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:31.679
<v Speaker 2>going to.

317
00:15:32.399 --> 00:15:35.039
<v Speaker 5>Getting in there too is always a hassle.

318
00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:35.799
<v Speaker 2>That's great, Hey guys.

319
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:40.320
<v Speaker 8>Gary from Santa Crita just wondering if Deborah and Shannon's

320
00:15:40.399 --> 00:15:42.919
<v Speaker 8>lap was because the boss pulled her in and told

321
00:15:42.919 --> 00:15:45.120
<v Speaker 8>her to grow up, or because they realized that she

322
00:15:45.200 --> 00:15:48.720
<v Speaker 8>probably wouldn't grow up. Have a good one, see.

323
00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:51.159
<v Speaker 5>Yea, probably both a little bit of both.

324
00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:53.120
<v Speaker 4>Well.

325
00:15:53.200 --> 00:15:56.480
<v Speaker 3>A good news story to tell you about a kayaker

326
00:15:56.799 --> 00:16:02.879
<v Speaker 3>on a cross country trip through Canada creeks and rivers,

327
00:16:02.919 --> 00:16:06.559
<v Speaker 3>ticks a brief detour to rescue a man's dog that

328
00:16:06.639 --> 00:16:08.799
<v Speaker 3>had been trapped under a log.

329
00:16:09.159 --> 00:16:10.480
<v Speaker 5>I got the wrong one.

330
00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:16.360
<v Speaker 4>I was gonna, God, I'm an idiot.

331
00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:18.080
<v Speaker 5>That's for off the air.

332
00:16:20.399 --> 00:16:22.519
<v Speaker 3>I was gonna say it didn't look like the right one,

333
00:16:22.559 --> 00:16:24.080
<v Speaker 3>but I was gonna let you determine that.

334
00:16:24.159 --> 00:16:26.279
<v Speaker 5>Why do you let me order things without help?

335
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:31.480
<v Speaker 3>You've never asked me for help ordering things, and you've

336
00:16:31.519 --> 00:16:34.879
<v Speaker 3>always you've always screwed it up. Tied eyed sweatshirt is

337
00:16:34.919 --> 00:16:37.639
<v Speaker 3>all I have to say. It's all I gotta say. Yeah,

338
00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:40.039
<v Speaker 3>you wore at one time new Zealander.

339
00:16:39.679 --> 00:16:43.440
<v Speaker 2>Tom Hudson was canoeing solo on the Saskatchewan River just

340
00:16:43.519 --> 00:16:47.120
<v Speaker 2>outside the Paw when he found himself on a side quest.

341
00:16:47.000 --> 00:16:50.399
<v Speaker 7>Okay, he doesn't look okay, And that's where I saw

342
00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:52.279
<v Speaker 7>saw a dog stuck.

343
00:16:52.519 --> 00:16:54.360
<v Speaker 4>I could just hear a boxing. I actually passed to

344
00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:56.600
<v Speaker 4>and then then turned.

345
00:16:56.360 --> 00:17:00.279
<v Speaker 7>Around and when I faintly heard the heard the bucking

346
00:17:00.360 --> 00:17:02.360
<v Speaker 7>and churning around and went back to investigate.

347
00:17:02.720 --> 00:17:06.079
<v Speaker 2>He struck Tom, who had been canoeing across Canada for

348
00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:06.640
<v Speaker 2>two months.

349
00:17:06.680 --> 00:17:10.480
<v Speaker 4>Now, by the way, this is small town Canada television.

350
00:17:10.559 --> 00:17:13.000
<v Speaker 2>He knew he had to do something when.

351
00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:15.839
<v Speaker 7>I found out she had a log was actually on

352
00:17:15.920 --> 00:17:18.359
<v Speaker 7>top of the back half of her. They made sure

353
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:20.720
<v Speaker 7>we stayed there for a few minutes first, just to

354
00:17:20.720 --> 00:17:23.440
<v Speaker 7>make sure she wasn't injured or spinal injuries or anything.

355
00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:26.920
<v Speaker 2>Tom was able to bring the large white dog onto

356
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:29.559
<v Speaker 2>his canoe. Then they had to find its home.

357
00:17:30.039 --> 00:17:33.119
<v Speaker 3>Now listen, he was flying to BC from his home

358
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:36.000
<v Speaker 3>in New Zealand, across Canada as far as Manitoba near

359
00:17:36.039 --> 00:17:38.920
<v Speaker 3>the pause, as you heard the reporter say, when he

360
00:17:38.920 --> 00:17:41.680
<v Speaker 3>heard this barking, decided to take a detour to investigate.

361
00:17:42.599 --> 00:17:45.559
<v Speaker 3>Ivy is the name of this fourteen year old Great

362
00:17:45.599 --> 00:17:50.440
<v Speaker 3>Pyrenees who was lost. The owner had been looking for

363
00:17:50.480 --> 00:17:53.400
<v Speaker 3>her all day the previous day, but there was heavy

364
00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:57.119
<v Speaker 3>brush that prevented him from seeing or hearing her. She

365
00:17:57.279 --> 00:17:59.519
<v Speaker 3>was stuck just a quarter a mile away from home.

366
00:17:59.799 --> 00:18:03.640
<v Speaker 3>And again she was stuck somehow under a log. So

367
00:18:06.079 --> 00:18:09.079
<v Speaker 3>under a law, yeah, Tom ties up his canoe. He

368
00:18:09.119 --> 00:18:11.839
<v Speaker 3>lifts the log off of her back. He carries her

369
00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:15.799
<v Speaker 3>through knee deep mud and attempts to position her very

370
00:18:15.839 --> 00:18:18.359
<v Speaker 3>comfortably on the canoe because again he wasn't certain at

371
00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:20.920
<v Speaker 3>the time that she was okay, you know, may have

372
00:18:20.960 --> 00:18:24.599
<v Speaker 3>been this spinal injury. She had never been afloat before,

373
00:18:24.839 --> 00:18:29.559
<v Speaker 3>said Tom. So Tom snapped a pretty self explanatory photo

374
00:18:29.599 --> 00:18:32.799
<v Speaker 3>of the first impressions. He paddles about four hundred yards downstream.

375
00:18:32.839 --> 00:18:35.759
<v Speaker 3>He finds a dock, and he puts Ivy down on

376
00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:39.160
<v Speaker 3>the dock and goes to ring a nearby doorbell, hoping, hey,

377
00:18:39.440 --> 00:18:41.759
<v Speaker 3>whoever answers the door may have an idea at least

378
00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:46.279
<v Speaker 3>who the dog is. So the owner, whose name is

379
00:18:46.359 --> 00:18:49.960
<v Speaker 3>also Tom, says, she's a pretty lucky old dog that

380
00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:52.839
<v Speaker 3>came when that He came by when he did because

381
00:18:53.039 --> 00:18:54.440
<v Speaker 3>he could have went the other way, on the other

382
00:18:54.480 --> 00:18:56.240
<v Speaker 3>side of the river, and he never would have seen her.

383
00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:59.039
<v Speaker 4>I probably would have never found her. He said.

384
00:18:59.079 --> 00:19:01.799
<v Speaker 3>It was funny because the New Zealand accent was startling

385
00:19:02.240 --> 00:19:04.279
<v Speaker 3>to him. Even though he's Canadian, he probably has his

386
00:19:04.279 --> 00:19:08.480
<v Speaker 3>own accent. Tom stuck around. Tom the kayaker stuck around

387
00:19:08.599 --> 00:19:11.720
<v Speaker 3>to help wash the dog off, after which Tom the

388
00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:13.200
<v Speaker 3>dog owner invited him to eat with.

389
00:19:13.200 --> 00:19:14.480
<v Speaker 1>His fanis I was just going to say, is this

390
00:19:14.559 --> 00:19:16.279
<v Speaker 1>going to be one of those stories where they have

391
00:19:16.319 --> 00:19:18.759
<v Speaker 1>Thanksgiving together for the next twenty five years?

392
00:19:18.839 --> 00:19:19.240
<v Speaker 4>Could be?

393
00:19:19.680 --> 00:19:22.799
<v Speaker 3>This is where it gets really sad though, Oh no, well,

394
00:19:22.839 --> 00:19:25.519
<v Speaker 3>I mean no, it's an overall the dog gonna die? No, no, no,

395
00:19:25.559 --> 00:19:32.359
<v Speaker 3>dog's fine. Dog's fine. But he said, being hundreds of

396
00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:38.000
<v Speaker 3>meters from home, probably able to hear your owner, probably

397
00:19:38.039 --> 00:19:41.799
<v Speaker 3>able to smell your owner. I just thought it would

398
00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:43.960
<v Speaker 3>have been a terrible way for Ivy to go.

399
00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:46.440
<v Speaker 5>Wow when you put it like that.

400
00:19:46.480 --> 00:19:49.119
<v Speaker 3>So, he says, So there was no way I could

401
00:19:49.160 --> 00:19:53.319
<v Speaker 3>not have done what I did. He does say he

402
00:19:53.359 --> 00:19:56.200
<v Speaker 3>plans to return next spring to finish the voyage. He

403
00:19:56.279 --> 00:19:58.799
<v Speaker 3>told the CBC that he left with a feeling that

404
00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:03.279
<v Speaker 3>all the world's kind people were located in Canada, endeuring

405
00:20:03.279 --> 00:20:05.519
<v Speaker 3>the nation him as much as the wilderness and wildlife

406
00:20:05.519 --> 00:20:06.920
<v Speaker 3>as he had seen along his route.

407
00:20:07.519 --> 00:20:10.000
<v Speaker 4>Where As they say in Canada, his rote.

408
00:20:10.960 --> 00:20:13.640
<v Speaker 2>Turns out the dog is Ivy, a fourteen year old

409
00:20:13.680 --> 00:20:17.079
<v Speaker 2>Great Pyrenees. This reporter says her owner had been looking

410
00:20:17.119 --> 00:20:20.319
<v Speaker 2>for her for several days. Her owners fed her and

411
00:20:20.359 --> 00:20:21.480
<v Speaker 2>gave her a thorough bath.

412
00:20:21.759 --> 00:20:23.279
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, very bath.

413
00:20:23.519 --> 00:20:27.279
<v Speaker 1>Very Everyone has a commercial that that bothers them.

414
00:20:27.480 --> 00:20:29.359
<v Speaker 4>I think I think everybody's got one.

415
00:20:29.519 --> 00:20:33.680
<v Speaker 1>The one for me from the one for me on

416
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:37.880
<v Speaker 1>this station is the is the singing of the diarrhea

417
00:20:38.920 --> 00:20:41.480
<v Speaker 1>we have we've gone through at least I think two

418
00:20:41.599 --> 00:20:46.200
<v Speaker 1>or three, right, Jacob, Different different jingles that involve diarrhea

419
00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:49.559
<v Speaker 1>on this on this station should two or three. It's

420
00:20:49.599 --> 00:20:52.759
<v Speaker 1>a word that should. You should not want to say

421
00:20:53.720 --> 00:20:55.680
<v Speaker 1>sing Why are we singing diarrhea?

422
00:20:56.200 --> 00:20:57.039
<v Speaker 4>Huh?

423
00:20:57.119 --> 00:20:59.000
<v Speaker 5>Unless it's Steve Martin, I don't want.

424
00:20:58.799 --> 00:21:03.119
<v Speaker 4>To hear it. And Gary, this is Mandy from Yukaipa.

425
00:21:03.839 --> 00:21:06.759

426
00:21:06.799 --> 00:21:07.200
<v Speaker 6>Shannon.

427
00:21:07.720 --> 00:21:10.480

<v Speaker 5>Thank you, that was nice. Funny dea, where did you

431
00:21:22.440 --> 00:21:22.759
<v Speaker 5>find that?

432
00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:23.240
<v Speaker 3>Jacob?

433
00:21:23.240 --> 00:21:26.480
<v Speaker 1>How do you keep everything but dia? Okay, stop it,

434
00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:29.160
<v Speaker 1>it's a order of audio. It's funny though. He takes

435
00:21:29.279 --> 00:21:33.599
<v Speaker 1>nice pictures of Steve Gregory. Oh yeah, glamor La glam shots.

436
00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:37.440
<v Speaker 3>It's like, it's like, Jacob is Steve's two hundred thousand

437
00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:38.720
<v Speaker 3>dollars a year photographer.

438
00:21:39.039 --> 00:21:40.920
<v Speaker 5>That's exactly what Jacob is.

439
00:21:41.000 --> 00:21:42.319
<v Speaker 4>How much are you making doing that?

440
00:21:43.039 --> 00:21:44.720
<v Speaker 5>Yeah? Not enough.

441
00:21:45.000 --> 00:21:50.319
<v Speaker 3>California Governor Gavin Newsom's office has added a two hundred

442
00:21:50.440 --> 00:21:57.240
<v Speaker 3>thousand dollars a year director of photography to his office.

443
00:21:57.680 --> 00:22:01.319
<v Speaker 1>That is uh, that's right in line with him getting

444
00:22:01.359 --> 00:22:05.359
<v Speaker 1>caught at French laundry during the COVID shutdown complete. It

445
00:22:05.440 --> 00:22:07.799
<v Speaker 1>wasn't just the fact that he was out eating when

446
00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:09.519
<v Speaker 1>he told us that we can't go out to eat,

447
00:22:09.759 --> 00:22:11.039
<v Speaker 1>but it was the fact that he was at a

448
00:22:11.079 --> 00:22:14.400
<v Speaker 1>place that charges upwards of seven hundred dollars with the

449
00:22:14.440 --> 00:22:17.839
<v Speaker 1>wine pairings for one person to have dinner. Right, I mean,

450
00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:21.240
<v Speaker 1>it's just egregious head in the sand, tone deaf about

451
00:22:21.279 --> 00:22:24.680
<v Speaker 1>how real people live in this state behavior.

452
00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:30.079
<v Speaker 3>The retired photojournalist, a guy named Charles o'mani is now

453
00:22:30.119 --> 00:22:34.720
<v Speaker 3>being paid to capture Gavin Newsom's pictures in wildfire zones

454
00:22:35.480 --> 00:22:38.559
<v Speaker 3>under the one eighteen Freeway when he's cleaning up homeless encampments.

455
00:22:39.319 --> 00:22:42.559
<v Speaker 3>And this guy is a pretty well known photographer. A

456
00:22:42.559 --> 00:22:45.759
<v Speaker 3>list of prominent politicians that he's worked with before, including

457
00:22:45.759 --> 00:22:50.240
<v Speaker 3>former Presidents Obama and Bush. His LinkedIn page shows that

458
00:22:50.279 --> 00:22:53.319
<v Speaker 3>he was a photojournalist for Newsweek. He's been published by

459
00:22:53.319 --> 00:22:58.039
<v Speaker 3>prominent magazines like Vanity Fair, Rolling Stone, the Governor's office,

460
00:22:58.079 --> 00:23:03.880
<v Speaker 3>and again it's that same vein of tone deafness. The

461
00:23:03.920 --> 00:23:09.079
<v Speaker 3>Governor's office issued a statement that says, unlike nearly all

462
00:23:09.200 --> 00:23:14.359
<v Speaker 3>of his predecessors and gubernatorial counterparts, the real story here

463
00:23:14.559 --> 00:23:18.920
<v Speaker 3>is that Governor Newsome did not have a dedicated photographer

464
00:23:19.119 --> 00:23:23.599
<v Speaker 3>for over five years. We're thrilled that changed when Charles

465
00:23:23.680 --> 00:23:24.480
<v Speaker 3>joined our team.

466
00:23:24.759 --> 00:23:28.119
<v Speaker 1>Who needs a Charles this day and age where everyone

467
00:23:28.160 --> 00:23:31.119
<v Speaker 1>can be a photographer with our iPhones, I we can

468
00:23:31.160 --> 00:23:34.920
<v Speaker 1>all take decent pictures of other people, right, nobody takes

469
00:23:34.920 --> 00:23:38.880
<v Speaker 1>decent pictures of us, But we could, you know, I

470
00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:43.000
<v Speaker 1>mean they said that plenty of other governors have dedicated photographers,

471
00:23:43.039 --> 00:23:47.000
<v Speaker 1>But I bet those other governor's photographers are not making

472
00:23:47.119 --> 00:23:50.279
<v Speaker 1>close to two hundred thousand dollars. Yeah, you could pay

473
00:23:50.319 --> 00:23:53.799
<v Speaker 1>an intern to take your picture, to vollow you around

474
00:23:53.799 --> 00:23:54.599
<v Speaker 1>and take your picture.

475
00:23:55.519 --> 00:23:59.839
<v Speaker 3>Rattis Doug Elmets is a Republican strategist who says this,

476
00:24:00.119 --> 00:24:03.880
<v Speaker 3>It just doesn't make any sense. The photographer could be

477
00:24:03.960 --> 00:24:08.640
<v Speaker 3>hired as a contractor to a newsome campaign position, and

478
00:24:08.680 --> 00:24:11.440
<v Speaker 3>then you wouldn't have all the questions raised about taxpayer dollars,

479
00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:14.279
<v Speaker 3>because if you hire somebody for two hundred thousand dollars

480
00:24:14.319 --> 00:24:19.319
<v Speaker 3>a year, given that the state is has a seventy

481
00:24:19.400 --> 00:24:24.720
<v Speaker 3>three billion dollar deficit right now, this is another one

482
00:24:24.759 --> 00:24:29.279
<v Speaker 3>of those tone deaf, complete unforced errors that he has

483
00:24:29.319 --> 00:24:34.200
<v Speaker 3>put himself in. By the way, the photographer makes two

484
00:24:34.279 --> 00:24:36.880
<v Speaker 3>hundred thousand dollars a year, do you know how much

485
00:24:36.920 --> 00:24:40.599
<v Speaker 3>the governor makes in the state of California two hundred

486
00:24:40.799 --> 00:24:44.400
<v Speaker 3>change two thirty? Yeah, he hot. Now, I don't know

487
00:24:44.440 --> 00:24:47.720
<v Speaker 3>if that means that this guy is clearly he's a Pulitzer.

488
00:24:48.279 --> 00:24:51.160
<v Speaker 4>Not a Pulitzer. He is an award winning.

489
00:24:51.599 --> 00:24:55.359
<v Speaker 1>Sandra Dale O'Connor Henry Kissinger are some of the portraits

490
00:24:55.400 --> 00:25:00.599
<v Speaker 1>featured on his Instagram. Very artful, very lot of black

491
00:25:00.640 --> 00:25:04.640
<v Speaker 1>and Whites, George wo and the great Gavin Newsom right

492
00:25:04.720 --> 00:25:07.400
<v Speaker 1>up there with Henry Kissinger and Sandra Dee O'Connor.

493
00:25:09.480 --> 00:25:12.519
<v Speaker 3>I just it blows me away that there is no

494
00:25:13.880 --> 00:25:19.240
<v Speaker 3>sense of normalcy. And listen and listen. This is why

495
00:25:19.279 --> 00:25:23.160
<v Speaker 3>people make fun of California. This is why. Yes, if

496
00:25:23.160 --> 00:25:27.799
<v Speaker 3>you live in Missouri, you think, why would anybody want

497
00:25:28.039 --> 00:25:32.000
<v Speaker 3>a picture of the governor? And you have to explain

498
00:25:32.079 --> 00:25:36.519
<v Speaker 3>to them, well, we come from the capital of narcissism,

499
00:25:36.920 --> 00:25:40.960
<v Speaker 3>and we have a king of narcissism who lives in Sacramento,

500
00:25:41.319 --> 00:25:45.200
<v Speaker 3>and he's gonna want this photographer again if he wants

501
00:25:45.240 --> 00:25:46.279
<v Speaker 3>pictures of himself.

502
00:25:46.599 --> 00:25:48.799
<v Speaker 4>I don't blame him, I don't fault him for that.

503
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:52.680
<v Speaker 3>But the idea that a tax payer two hundred thousand

504
00:25:52.720 --> 00:25:54.039
<v Speaker 3>dollars salary.

505
00:25:53.680 --> 00:25:54.480
<v Speaker 5>It's disgusting.

506
00:25:55.279 --> 00:26:00.200
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna in one week cry out for people that

507
00:26:01.279 --> 00:26:04.640
<v Speaker 1>work in restaurants to make twenty dollars an hour because

508
00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:08.319
<v Speaker 1>they're having such a hard time putting food on the table,

509
00:26:08.400 --> 00:26:10.839
<v Speaker 1>keeping the lights on right. But at the same time,

510
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:13.680
<v Speaker 1>you are going so you're going to pretend to know

511
00:26:13.759 --> 00:26:17.119
<v Speaker 1>how people are living or struggling, and at the same time,

512
00:26:17.200 --> 00:26:20.200
<v Speaker 1>in the next week, you're going to hire a photographer

513
00:26:20.279 --> 00:26:22.400
<v Speaker 1>for two hundred thousand dollars a year?

514
00:26:23.079 --> 00:26:26.920
<v Speaker 5>How many pictures I got taking? What do you it?

515
00:26:27.119 --> 00:26:29.039
<v Speaker 5>Just that that doesn't make any sense.

516
00:26:29.200 --> 00:26:30.920
<v Speaker 3>Maybe he's only taking a couple of day, but it

517
00:26:30.960 --> 00:26:34.160
<v Speaker 3>takes a lot of photoshopping. I don't know. I don't know,

518
00:26:34.519 --> 00:26:37.640
<v Speaker 3>editing after the after the I don't know. But are

519
00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:40.440
<v Speaker 3>you just paying for the name? Like he's not doing

520
00:26:40.480 --> 00:26:44.000
<v Speaker 3>a whole He's not, you know, digging ditches out there

521
00:26:44.039 --> 00:26:47.839
<v Speaker 3>as far as photographer world goes, But you're paying for

522
00:26:47.880 --> 00:26:48.319
<v Speaker 3>the name.

523
00:26:48.640 --> 00:26:50.519
<v Speaker 5>I think you are paying for the name, which makes

524
00:26:50.559 --> 00:26:52.079
<v Speaker 5>it even worse.

525
00:26:55.599 --> 00:26:56.200
<v Speaker 4>I agree.

526
00:26:56.359 --> 00:26:59.119
<v Speaker 3>A reminder, next week, we're going to be live at

527
00:26:59.160 --> 00:27:03.079
<v Speaker 3>the Democratic Nation Convention all week doing the show live

528
00:27:03.319 --> 00:27:07.759
<v Speaker 3>from the right there on the outskirts the concourse around

529
00:27:07.880 --> 00:27:11.920
<v Speaker 3>United Center, the all of the candidates, a bunch of

530
00:27:11.960 --> 00:27:15.000
<v Speaker 3>different politicians, political hacks, and a bunch of people are

531
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:17.160
<v Speaker 3>going to be walking around and as we did eight

532
00:27:17.240 --> 00:27:20.799
<v Speaker 3>years ago, we're going to be interviewing everybody.

533
00:27:20.920 --> 00:27:27.039
<v Speaker 1>We actually have a pretty impressive stage. Yeah, shall we

534
00:27:27.079 --> 00:27:30.240
<v Speaker 1>say it's bigger. It's bigger than all the other stages.

535
00:27:30.559 --> 00:27:33.440
<v Speaker 3>I would say most people would say that it's the

536
00:27:33.480 --> 00:27:36.839
<v Speaker 3>most impressive, the best. Yeah, yeah, I'm not saying that,

537
00:27:36.880 --> 00:27:37.480
<v Speaker 3>but most people.

538
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:39.880
<v Speaker 1>So I think we'll be able to get great guests

539
00:27:40.000 --> 00:27:44.759
<v Speaker 1>because of our beautiful I will admit our beautiful stage.

540
00:27:44.799 --> 00:27:48.079
<v Speaker 3>Our beautiful stage is going to make me repack. Not

541
00:27:48.119 --> 00:27:49.519
<v Speaker 3>that I've packed, but I'm saying.

542
00:27:49.319 --> 00:27:52.000
<v Speaker 1>If you could, if you could not just wear shorts

543
00:27:52.039 --> 00:27:56.039
<v Speaker 1>and flip flops and dirty stained undershirts, that would be cool.

544
00:27:56.319 --> 00:27:58.599
<v Speaker 3>And it's we're going to be in air conditioning, so

545
00:27:58.839 --> 00:28:01.000
<v Speaker 3>I can wear like a long sleeve shirt and not

546
00:28:01.039 --> 00:28:01.799
<v Speaker 3>be uncomfortable.

547
00:28:01.799 --> 00:28:04.920
<v Speaker 1>That would be nice. A couple of colored shirts, maybe

548
00:28:04.960 --> 00:28:09.200
<v Speaker 1>a jacket. Okay, all right, let's try not to look homeless.

549
00:28:09.359 --> 00:28:13.799
<v Speaker 4>Not this time. Not this time. You've been listening to
