• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Do you and I put a frozen turkey in one
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: of those turkey fryers because it will explode and they'll
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: be shrapnel flying all over the place and hugely entertaining
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: when pieces of people are on the front lawn or
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: the back lawne. So Neil is not here today either,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: What the hell is he doing today?
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Do we know? Do you have something to do with
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: with Max? Max is off this week? Oh that's so.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: I think they might be going to Disneyland. Oh what
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: a shocker, going to Disneyland. I think that's what it is.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I can understand when you got a kid,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: because I remember I was so excited when I was
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: a little one going to Disneyland.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: I can remember I was eight nine years old.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: But those are the days when you could go midweek
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: February March and there was zero wait zero wait.
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: Well times have changed. Still the most magical place in
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: the planet.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and it was magic walking right. You actually had
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: to get off the ride. Unfortunately, even though the ride
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: was empty, they wouldn't let you just stay on the
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: ride to go another go round. You had to go
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: around at the exit and then get back on the ride.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: It was devastating to anybody that did that. Okay, so yeah,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: those days have changed. How many days of the year
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: do they just shut the park down for new people
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: coming in because there's too many people in the park
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: and you have to wait half an hour hour until
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: enough people leave the park to let you in.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Like one or two days. It's not it doesn't happen
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: very often, but it's because you have to make you
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: have to make reservations. Now you don't just show up
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: at the park.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: You have to make a reservations to go into the park.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like's a movie ticket. You make a reservation.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: They don't so they don't oversell it.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: I did not know that. Yeah, I did not know.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: You have to reserve your spot.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: Yes, they started that during the pandemic because they had
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: to limit attendance and they said, hey, this works out
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: pretty good because then the park doesn't get overcrowded.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Okay, you learn something new every day. I was it
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: a Saturday. I was with Neil at Wendy's. We did
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: an event. It was a Neil event that he did
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: for Pastathon and it was it was so it's so
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: much fun where I had Several people come up to
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: me and say, hey, Bill, we went to high school together.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: And I look at them and I actually told them,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: of course, just thinking about it, go, you know, you
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: look like utter crap. You know that you are not
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: aging well. And they would turn around and look at
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: me and go looking in the mirror.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Huh.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: This is what I now do at events? Is out
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: you look like crap to each other? Very exciting. A
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: few people literally drag themselves out of their deathbed to say, hello,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: we have an older crap I think radio does.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Okay, what else is going on? Oh?

• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Hi Hi. All right you guys ready to do it? Yeah, okay,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: let's do it. It's time for handle on the news.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: On this Monday morning, November twenty fourth, two days before Thanksgiving,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: here's a lead.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Story that.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Well, if you plan on flying any place for Thanksgiving,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: you are out of your mind. Lax is racing for
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: two and a half million Thanksgiving travelers. Two and a
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: half millions are going to go through the terminals. This
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: is between November twentieth and December one, which is still
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: a record setting stretch.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: What is the.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Actual number for the day or the two the day
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: before and the day after. We don't have those numbers,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: but they're astronomical. It's just it's crazy to wait in
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: line that way. That's why here's a little hint. Okay,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: here is a little hint. Rent a wheelchair or and
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: this is for Disneyland too, and I don't think that's
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: the case anymore. There is a Walmart about half a
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: mile away from Disney and you could go in and
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: get one of those collapsible canes, and as you go
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: up to the turnstile, you get wobbly and put your
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: cane down and you go in as a disabled person
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: and you used to get at the front of the
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: line with that. They don't do that anymore, do they.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Amy They don't let people with canes move to the
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: front of the line.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: Do they at Disneyland. Er at the airport.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: At Disneyland the airport, you're well airport, if you're in
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: a wheelchair, you're in grete shape.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: Well, people who were faking it kind of wrecked it
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: for a lot of people. They do. I mean, they
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: still make some accommodations, but they're not as generous as
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: they used to be because too many people cheated it.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I always, unfortunately, I left my collapsible canes
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: at home, so I had to always buy one at
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: thought Walmart. Do you know how many of these I
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: have in my closet, These collapsible canes.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: When you open the door too fast, they all they just.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Fall right out. Yeah, okay, moving on, okay.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: Out of Congress than into the highest job in the land.
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Green announced that she was retiring
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: on Friday, and now she said no, no, no, I
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: am not running for president. Because apparently there were some
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: rumblings that she might want to. She did say I'm
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: not running for president. I never said I wanted to,
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: and have only laughed about it when anyone would mention it. Yeah.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: I don't remember her saying she was running for president.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: It was other people pushing and she goes, no, not
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: at all. But the story of Margor Taylor Green is phenomenal.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: I'm going to do that at seven o'clock. She has
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: when has gone from the most adamant Trump supporter, I
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: mean crazy supporter of Donald Trump, also crazy supporter in
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: terms of those conspiracy theories, I mean just insane conspiracy
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: theaters theories like QAnon stuff, and now she's become an
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: enemy of Trump. And I'll tell you the reason that
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: she is bailing too. And I'll do that coming up
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: at seven o'clock.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: Does Ukraine get the short end of the stick. There's
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: a peace plan. It's twenty eight points US and Ukrainian
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: officials or in Geneva working through the version of the plan.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: The plan, according to some was written pretty much by
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: the Russian side, and it would force Ukraine to shrink
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: its army, give up land. Russia hasn't mad that, even
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: more land than Russia's taken over apparently, and also would
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: bar NATO troops among other concessions.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Right, no, you can't join NATO reduce the army by
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: thirty percent.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: But the NATO thing's never been like the US has
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: never backed Ukraine joining NATO. Most people haven't.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Right, they were talk about it, but the Russians were
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: so adamant.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: There was talk.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: But if NATO, if a Ukraine were to join NATO,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: that put Well actually puts that entire region into position
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: of starting a war. Because I'm recording our Article five
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: of the NATO Treaty. An attack on one is an
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: attack on all and look, and Russia has wanted Ukraine,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: particularly Putin, for decades and decades, even before Putin became
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: the head honcho. And that would if he were to
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: attack Ukraine while Ukraine was a member of NATO, it's
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: a declaration of war against NATO.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: But here's what happens. NATO has no balls.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: It would sit back and go, oh, let's go ahead
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: and negotiate this. Yeah, that would be their tone, by
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: the way, Oh, let's go ahead and negotiate this. So
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: you know, there no one has any guts anymore. The
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: world has turned over on its head completely. And so
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: I'll talk about that a little bit later on too.
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: Well, we've got a Christmas Scrooge just in time for Thanksgiving.
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: There is a truck that is missing. It was carrying
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: nearly five hundred frozen turkeys. They were supposed to go
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: to a grab and go food distribution for the holidays
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: in Lake elsinor and it was stolen. You are important,
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: that you are Important. Foundation had planned to hand out
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: the turkeys to those in need, and the organization's director
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: said the team stepped away from the truck for a
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: quick break on Saturday, and when they came back, the
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: truck was gone.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: There's a special place in hell for people that steal
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: food that's going to go to the hungry people. Just
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: you know, it's bad enough stealing turkeys. I mean, I
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: don't know who the hell would steal turkeys, five hundred turkeys.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: How much is that what's the average.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: So let's say averaged twelve pounds, and how much is
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: a turkey ninety nine cents a dollar thirty nine of pounds,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: call it two dollars a pound for turkey, So that's
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: twenty five bucks a turkey. It's ten grand worth of turkeys. Okay,
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: it's a lot of kids that aren't eating, thank you
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: very much.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: Scraping out ice. So this was kind of an interesting
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: way to protest because you know, lots of ice raids
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: are carried out around home depots. And about one hundred
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: people went to the Home Depot in Monrovia on Saturday,
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: gut in line, and each one of them bought a
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: small ice scraper worth less than a dollar. Then they
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: got back in line minutes later and returned the item.
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: It's known as a buy in. It was part of
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: a larger demonstration at the home depot to pressure the
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: company to scrape ice out of its stores.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, those people certainly showed ice because as they were
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: going through the turnstile, they were all arrested and deported.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: So welcome to the world of fighting ice. Is it
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: going to happen?
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Do you think at some point it's going.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: To be so overwhelming, the demonstrations are going to increase
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: to such an extent that it politically, it goes over
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: the edge.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: I don't know what do you think exactly?
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: Okay, moving on, By the way, that was not a
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: political question. That was simply a timeline question.
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: Here's a side effect of Thanksgiving that I would imagine
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: nobody wants, but a lot of people get. It's called
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: brown Friday. The day after Thanksgiving is typically one of
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: the busiest days of the year for the plumbing industry.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: Kitchen drains and garbage disposals are clogging. They tend to
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: be the biggest source of plumbing calls. However, as they say,
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: other household activities can add to the problem as well.
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: You got nothing to say about that, bill.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I'm looking at the list and it
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: doesn't affect me at all.
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: I don't do laundry, I don't take showers.
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: You don't have a guess.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: So if I use the toilets, I mean if I'm outside,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: and if tope, there's a bush retreat right there.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: And I don't deal with a dishwasher, so I'm off
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: the line. I'm off the list here. You could, Yeah,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: for sure.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: Okay, there's and then there's a whole bunch.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Of stuff with that you're supposed to not put down there.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: And you are supposed to liquid soft foods, chop foods,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: you know that, just chop your food, you.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: Know, normally.
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: Dean Sharp was saying that they they may be getting
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: rid of garbage disposals completely, Yeah, because they're they don't
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: really do what they're supposed to do and they put
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: all kinds of gunk into the pipes.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: You know, I was talking to Dean once and he
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: and I thought you'd just scrape it off and throw
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: the food in there, and he says, no, you don't
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: put food down garbage disposal. You just put scrapings down there,
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: whatever is left on your plate, the you know, the
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: sauces and the bits and pieces of food. If you're
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: talking big food items larger than a tiny little bit,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what a tiny little bit is.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: By the way, it throw that in.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: The trash and that's your recyclable stuff. Well, it's your
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: food recyclable, it's your compost stuff. Anybody have a compost
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: and among.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: Us they delivered a compost trash can to where I live.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Uh huh.
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: But there's like, you know, the guys who own it,
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: and then there's a couple of us who rent from him.
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: I'm like, how are we supposed to do this?
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, you can't put.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Them in a plastic bag because the plastic bag doesn't compost, right,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: So I mean the only thing you do is put
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: a compost heap in the backyard.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: Well, they have the composting trash cans now, because you're
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: supposed to be you're supposed to be separating that out.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: No, I understand, But what do you do?
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: Do you have to put the trash or you have
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: to put the whatever material the compostable material in there.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: But how do you get from here to there? I've got,
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: for example, half a chicken that's left. Do I carry
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: half a chicken on a plate outside and then dump
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: it in the compost heap?
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: Or do I put it in a plastic.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Bag that then goes out to the compost heap? No
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: plastic See that's true, I'm telling you Trader Joe's. By
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: the way, I went a couple of days ago. No
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: plastic all done. So now it's do you want paper
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: or paper?
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: Well, you've heard of three strikes. Well, Meta's a little
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: more lenient. Apparently, a former employee of Meta, of course,
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: the owner of Facebook and Instagram, WhatsApp and threads, testified
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: as part of a major lawsuit that the tech company
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: had a policy that allowed seventeen strikes before it suspended
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: accounts engaging in the trafficking of humans for sex.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: You know, that's almost hard to believe. It's so many now.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Meta did not deny it. All they said is we've
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: sort of changed our rules that the first go round
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: will now remove someone from our platform.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: And that's another one.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: If one person complains, does that mean that the person
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: being complained about is off the platform?
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: I don't know, You don't know.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: Patel is being pelted with criticism for arranging for protection
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: for his girlfriend and other things. So Cash Betel is
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: the head of the FBI, and apparently his girlfriend, Alexis
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: Wilkins sang the star spangled banner at the National Rifle
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: Association's convention in Atlanta. Happened back in the spring, and
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: she showed up with a SWAT team with her to
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: protect her. Two agents were at the event. They checked
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: it out. They said the events secure, and so they said,
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: we're leaving, and they left, and then cash Betel was mad.
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: She was mad.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: But this also brings him under scrutiny because what's he
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: doing using taxpayer money to protect his girlfriend? And that
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: has is being looked at because he also apparently used
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: a government jet for some recreational travel, like a golf
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: trip with his buddies to a private resort in Scotland
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: over the summer.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: And look at the president. You know, the President does
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: not spend weekends in Washington. He is at mar A Lago,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: or he is in New Jersey. Uh and the one
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: to mar A Lago. He flies down there. I mean
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: dozens and dozens of times since he was sworn in.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: You know what that costs.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: I mean just flying in for the weekend is insane.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but not to this extent.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: Oh, George Bush used to go back to Texas every weekend.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Not every weekend, not like as a matter of fact,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: we should get the figures hid the weekend.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: You know what, that's a good.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Question George Bush versus President Trump in terms of numbers
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: of flights to hometown Texas versus mar A Lago. That
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: is a great bit of research that we should do.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: And by the way, and if I am in the
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: wrong here you say, I can't find it, Bill, all right,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: I I captain. Okay, Now, if it turns out that
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: Amy's in the wrong, We're gonna will be in and out.
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: Of every break with.
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: That breaking news. Yes, we've got some grizzly new details
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: about the body of that teenager who was found stuffed
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: in a trunk in a tesla in Hollywood. Remember she
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: was found back in September, and they've been trying to
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: figure out what's going on. Well now they're saying TMC
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: is reporting that the girls decomposing parts had been frozen
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: and they were thawing out in the trunk, including a
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: head and a torso and David, a singer who she
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: was friends with, and one of the persons are apparently
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: now suspects.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: But gosh gets worse. Yes, it was his car just
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: down the street. Yeah, I mean, this is a horror movie.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: This is horrific. It's almost beyond credulity. It's so insanely depraved.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: All right, I think we knew one more before we bailed.
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: Sort of playing nice after their friendly White House meeting
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: on Friday, President Trump, and so we're on Mom, Donnie
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: we're all chummy. After their meetings, said it was very productive. Well,
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: the mayor elect of New York City is saying that
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: the prospect of the National Guard being deployed to the
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: city seems less likely now. He was on Meet the Press.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: He said he had made a strong case to the
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: President that the National Guard wasn't needed and that crime
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: was under control. Trump said, if they need it, I'd
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: do it. So it's still up in the air, but he's.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: Not going to do it. Beyond that, they had a meeting.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: They were both smiling.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: Trump said, yeah, he thinks Mamdonnie is going to be
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: a good mayor. And they both agree on so many
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: aspects together. I mean, it became this from this vicious
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: attack on each other right down to now they're best friends.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: And you did you find the figure? Well, I found
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: a figure.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: You want to know about Biden.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: No, I want to know George Bush versus the President.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: I didn't say Biden, I said Biden. Sorry, she said Biden.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: I didn't say Biden. Well I have Biden's I'm gonna
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: tell Okay, all.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: Right, what is Biden? The number of flights Biden took
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: on weekends out of the White.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: House during his pregnancy. Privacy during his pregnancy, good point.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: Yes, his presidency, he took seventy six trips back home
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: to Delaware. Okay, that's a bunch. Were they were those flights?
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: I was he on Air Force one. I don't know
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: how far is Delaware from Washington, DC? Is that an
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: Air Force one flight?
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: Maybe he took the train like he did when he
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: was a congressman.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: Probably not, I doubt it.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: Anyway, The question was George Bush, all right, let's get
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: back on.
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: All right, Well, here's something else to worry about when
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: you're flying over the holidays, or well anytime. LA airport
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: police say they've noticed an uptick in car thefts at
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: the airports, parking garages and lots. A point. They are,
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: apparently the thieves exploiting a new flaw in some vehicles,
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: and that is that you can punch out the rear
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: windows of some cars and that doesn't set off the alarm.
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: So they're getting in that way that somebody broke into
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: my car sort of that way because I have a
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: soft top. They took a knife to the soft top
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: and cut it all the way side to side and
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: climbed in through the top, which didn't set off the
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: alarm because the doors and windows weren't opened or broken.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so I guess you put an a motion detector.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: They're not very expensive. It's just the new way of
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: dealing with security. And as newer cars are built, newer
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: and newer cars, the alarm system becomes more and more sophisticated.
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: To you can't buy a car without an alarm system.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, when's the last time you could actually buy
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: a car that didn't have an alarm system? And I
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: don't know the answer, so good for you. By the way,
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: do you still have a convertible?
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: Why would you admit that.
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: It's a hard top?
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Oh, it's hard They do actually have convertible hardtops. I
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: know they're kind of neat. Okay, So why don't we
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: share your address? And the other thing about alarms going off?
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: The problem with alarms going off because I use my
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: alarm all the time to find my car in parking
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: lots because I always forget where I parked the car.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: So I pushed the alarm and there it is going
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: Hong Hong Kong. That the lights flashing and I can
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: find the car. I'm not alone in doing that either.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: How do you know when someone is really breaking in
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: and someone's trying to find the car?
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: Okay, uh, these balls brought in big bucks. Dodgers fans
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: will never forget the base balls hit by Miguel Rojas
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: in the ninth inning that tied the game Game seven
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: of the World Series, and Will Smith in the eleventh
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: Inny His home run ball flew over the left field
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: wall and into the first row of seats, And the
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: people who caught those balls have sold them. They went
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: up for auction, and Will Smith's home run ball, which
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: was the game winning run, sold for one hundred and
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: sixty eight thousand dollars. Rojas's home run ball that set
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: the game into extra innings went for one hundred and
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: fifty six thousand. And you'll remember, possibly earlier in the season,
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: sho hey O Tommy had probably the greatest game ever
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: in Major League Baseball history when he pitched and then
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: hit and hit three home runs. Well, one of those
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: home run balls from Game four of the Championship Series
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: was sold for two hundred and seventy thousand dollars.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: Do you understand any of this? What you meant?
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: People spend money on it or what?
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the value of these balls Game three, Game six
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: of the World Series. I just assigned Babe Ruth baseball.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: I understand. I get that these were actually considered low, right,
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: because there are some balls that I've gone for over
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: a million dollars.
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Hey, when you've got more money than God, you
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: got to spend it on something, right.
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: When you have more money than brains, you sent it out.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, one of us cann't relate.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: That's because you're a real smart person, aren't you.
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: Yes, Okay. The Israeli military has taken out one of
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: Hesbela's big wigs, they say, and it's been confirmed by
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: Benjamin Ett Yaho's office that Hesbela's second most senior figure,
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: the chief of staff, was killed in an air strike
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: in southern Bay Root. And Israel has said they are
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: going to step up attacks against in Lebanon and in
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: Gaza if we don't see forward progress in this peace agreement.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: Now, this says a lot about the strength of Israel
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: relative to what it used to be. You've got Lebanon
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: being attacked a sovereign country. You have Iran being attacked
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: and nothing comes of it. There is no response. None
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: of these countries want to go up against Israel. It's
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: not simple. If Lebanon attacks, Israel has said, well, we'll
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: just take it to the ground. There'll be nothing left
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: of Lebanon, Southern Lebanon, and telling Iran you better be
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: pretty careful about what you're going to do with.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: Us, and they're all listening.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that October seventh attack was not such a great,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: great idea, was it?
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: All right, We're done with that.
• 27:00
