• 0:17
  Speaker 2: and how much was cut overall? Because the story doesn't

  Speaker 2: each other here. The only difference is I actually mean

  Speaker 2: every word of it, and everybody else has uh does
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: it lightly and with frivolity. All right, you guys ready
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: to do it. Let's start moving, said boy. We got
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: some stories. One is a lot bigger than I thought
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: it would be. And as a matter of fact, as
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: we go into handle on the news with Amy Neil
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: and me, this is the story. It's the lead story.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: It's the story of says our Chavez. And I had
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: no idea. I mean, this thing has exploded. It's gotten
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: some serious legs now after the allegation which has basically
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: been accepted by everybody that sees their Chavez abused women,
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: raped a couple of women, and even his his longtime
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: companion professionally that co founded United farm Workers with him. Uh.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: The Laura was going to talk about her a little
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: later on. Now everybody is trying to figure out what
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: do you do with his name on buildings, on parks,
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: on roads. They are replace them with or you replace them. Well,
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: there's a national move to take all of Caesar chob
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: as his uh name, his name on all the buildings
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: and replace them with the president's name. I won't tell
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: you which president.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: But Trump wid in. Hey, I got an idea.
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah, until all files are released, we should probably put
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: put that up full.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: And it's mean people. They're spinning and no one's refuting it,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: and no one has said, especially the organizations that are
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: connected to Caesar job as United farm Workers. No one
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: is saying it didn't happen. No one is saying these
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: are just allegation, which normally you would expect to hear
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: from some quarters. I mean, nothing but crickets in that regard.
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: Yesterday, when it was coming down, there was a finality
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: to it, even though some information still hadn't come out.
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: It just the wheels were moving so fast you felt
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: like they had to have something more than just blank
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: allegations for a guy who's been dead since the nineties.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: Well, especially after Delores's.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so she's very respected as well, and she had
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: two kids with.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: This guy as the result of the rapes.
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, is what she said. Well, I couldn't tell if
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: one was consensual and one was rape.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: No, she said, neither one was consensual. One was an
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: outright rape, the other one was simply under pressure. Is
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: I think what the arcade that said? And then there's
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: even statues, Well, what is that university that has a
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: statue of Caesar Chavez in there in the courtyard. You
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: know they're trying to find a groud show mask into
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: the mustache and his face.
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: Listen, you gotta we gotta stop holding people up like
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: this because the reality.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: Is the reality is what they all right, people know,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: but it's like the number of people's extraordinaries coming out.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: Go do some research on Gandhi for Christ's sake. I mean,
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: it's like you you it's holding people up like this
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: the things that we can, but.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: You can when they're when they're put on a pestal,
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: pedestal like this, and when they're put that they're deified
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: like this. I I believe that any even an investigation
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: into their backgrounds, even looking at it or possibly saying, hey,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: we'd really like find out is a media attack is
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: considered an immediate attack on a on a almost deified
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: human being. How dare you do that? So yeah, I
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: think you're right, and this goes beyond that. You know,
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: we should do a topic on this and uh, this
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: is where Lindsay and I always have this discussion and
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: she goes, she says, women are crap in society no
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: matter what men. This is how men rule the world.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: I always thought that women rule the world. Only look
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: at the women around me. But there's a lot more
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: reality to that. You turn around and look at all
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: this time. Not completely wrong there.
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: No, she is not.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: No, she is not at all used to and it's
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: being proven more and more. Okay, we'll take a break
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: and come back and get into No, not some Trump stuff, No, no, God, no, yep,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: we have to all right, big bucks to.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: Bust up Iran. The Pentagon has asked the White House
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: to approve more than two hundred billion dollars in funding
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: for Congress to fund the war in Iran. They apparently
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: need our asking for it to urgently increase production of
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: critical weaponry that has been used as the US and
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: Israeli forces have been hitting thousands of targets. During a
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: White House or not a White House, but a Pentagon
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: briefing today, the Secretary of War Pete Hegsas said, it
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: takes a lot of money to kill the bad guys.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: It does.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: I mean he's right about that. And look where our
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: munitions have gone. A lot of them have gone to Ukraine.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: I'm a huge number, although for the last year they
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: haven't gotten any. But Europe has given it to him,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: and we're supposed to replace Europe. And then what's going
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: on with this attack.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: Well, they talked about the Ukraine thing a long time ago,
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: saying we don't have the stockpiles because there so much
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: to Ukraine.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and then it turns out that there was
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: plenty of stockpile. And I don't know if the if
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: our government, if our military is running low. I haven't
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: heard that. There's been some talk, but as of right now,
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: the administration say no, we have plenty. And that seems
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: to be the case because they're certainly not letting down
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: on the number of attacks and certainly terms of munitions.
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: All right, So you know what's worse than being blown up,
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: being massively blown up, And that's the threat coming from
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: our fearless leader, Donald Trump. He is threatening Iran's South
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: Pars gas field. So basically this all has to do
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: with the strikes on Qatar, and he's saying if they continue,
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: then he's going to massively blow up Iran South Pars
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: gas field. And right now you've got Brent crude, that's
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: the global oil benchmark climbed past one hundred and seventeen
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: bucks per barrel.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's going up pretty quickly. I mean we're going
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: to see gasoline prices as well as all the other
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: prices because everything relies on oil. I mean everything, transportation costs,
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: manufacturing costs, because everything is made out of oil. Neil,
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: you and I talk about food and it's all petroleum
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: based products. Everything. They say it's fresh vegetables, but who
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: are we kidding? But if you look at eye products,
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: it's insane. What's made from all oil, all of it.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: And here is the issue, I think is that if
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: the administration attacks the South Pars, takes it out, and
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: then you have Iran attacking Qatar, attacking Saudi Arabian hitting
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: their facilities, their transportation and holding facilities, and let's say
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: the Straight of Horror moves does open up, which it will,
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: there won't be any oil to transport through the Strait.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is going to get really really serious
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: if this moves into taking out those oil facilities across
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: the entire Mid East. I mean that's a big problem,
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: which is why this war is becoming more and more
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: unpopular by the day. And there's all kinds of controversy
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: we're going to talk about, and that is, you know,
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: we didn't or we did talk to our allies, and
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: accusations are going back and forth. But let's continue on
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: because that's going to be up for discussion for a
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: long time.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Down but not out. Director of National Intelligence Tilsea Gabbard
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: has told lawmakers that the regime in Iran appears to
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: be intact but largely degraded after almost three weeks of
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: attacks in the Middle East. Gabbard said in her opening
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: remarks that Tehran could face increased challenges as its economy falters,
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: but that the country and its proxies continue to attack
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: US and allied interests in the Middle East.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: Now could consider what the President said, the war was
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: over in one hour. We took out their ability to
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: fight because we just what is it decimated as far
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: as there are nuclear facilities were concerned. What was the
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: word that the President used. It was pretty It was
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: pretty graphic in terms of saying that it's no longer
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: in existence. I'm trying to remember the word. And so
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: that was at the beginning of the war. Now they
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: still have it, and it's and the attack was imminent
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: by the same nuclear capability that was taken out, And.
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: You go, what what?
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: And then Tulsa Gabbert out did herself yesterday when she
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: was asked by one of the senators Democratic senators, now,
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: let's talk about the eminent attack. Was the United States
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: under eminent danger of being attacked? Eminent? Eminent? Yeah, you know,
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: it's you know, eminol And she said, and she said,
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: it is up to the president to decide when an
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: attack is eminent. Wait a minute, the senator said, isn't
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: it your job as National intelligence director to tell the
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: president what the risk is? She goes, it's up to
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: the president to make the decision as to whether an
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: attack is eminent or not. So I had as soon
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: as she said that, I had these visions of her
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: or a briefer walking into the Oval office with piles
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: of briefing books, putting it on his desk and saying, here,
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: you figure it out, mister president. The whole point is
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: for them to come in every day and talk about
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: the risk factor. That's what intelligence does. I mean, this
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: is I mean, it's gotten stupid. Is what it has.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: It's not even not even deflection anymore. It's just downright stupid. No,
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: intelligence isn't really intelligence. It's up to the president decide
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: the intelligence come on, or the risk factor. Man, that's
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: their whole point. Okay, Handle has talked about this before.
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: It used to be fun to watch other governments from
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: other countries scream at each other and threaten each other
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: and sometimes get physical. Well, now we can watch the
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: home version because you had Rand Paul confronting Senator Mullen
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: Trump's Department of Homeland Security pick bitter exchange, and you'd think, well,
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: you know politics, people have differing views. No, this goes
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: this goes way back to something that happened at Rand
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: Paul's neighborhood. I guess a neighbor attacked him, broke some ribs,
• 14:55
  Speaker 5: and Mullen sided with the neighbor. It's a weird story,
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: but ultimately it has made itself now into the public
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: domain and people going back and forth. Paul rim Paul
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: calls Mullen a liar.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it was great Mullen, and Mullen had called
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: him a freaking snake at the time of the attack.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: Out of control and Mullen admitted that he loses his temper.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: He's a mixed martial arts champion who is now a senator,
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: and it just or was a senator and now it's
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: just the last thing you want to do is piss
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: a guy like that off.
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: He actually ended with saying, if you if I have
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: something to say, I'll say it directly to your face,
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: which is not where you want to mix martial arts.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: I know when he got up, I mean, they came
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: close to a fisticuff. Although can you imagine a mixed
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: martial arts expert and there you are a senator not
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: in particularly great shape. Boy, would that be television television?
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: Where pretty short TV it would be, but it would be.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: And of course that just means that Trump administration would
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: push him even further to be in office. Now that's
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: just me joking, but man, this has gone so crazy.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: You're obsolutely right. You know, in the Korean parliament, I mean,
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: they smashed chairs over each other's heads.
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: That's what I want to see.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's getting closed. I mean it's just they're riots.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: It's hilarious. So we're getting there, We're getting there.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: Here come the Marines. At least one US Navy warship
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: carrying more than two thousand marines appears to be on
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: its way to the Middle East, fueling speculation about ground
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: troops being deployed. The USS Tripoli is an American class
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: amphibious assault ship. It was spotted on satellite along with
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: two escort ships escort ships traveling southwest across the South
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: China Sea on March fifteenth. The next day was near Singapore.
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: They're based out of Okinawa, Japan, so it looks like
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: the direction they're taking is the Middle East.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they look like a small aircraft carrier because f
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: thirty fives can take off from the deck so long.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: That's pretty big. That's pretty long. Now the other ones
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: that I can give eleven hundred square feet twelve.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: The carriers are about three hundred feet more.
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, So Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell continues
• 17:32
  Speaker 5: to push back and keep his feet firmly planted on
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: the ground. He says he will not step down from
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: the Central Banks Board until this investigation launched by President
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: Donald Trump that has not turned up anything at this point,
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: that the Justice Department is fully put to rest, and
• 17:54
  Speaker 5: he says, with complete transparency and finality, and even then
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: he says he he may not step down.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: Well, there's a criminal investigation that was opened up because
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Powell would not reduce interest rates, so and he told
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: the President to go pound sand and then the criminal
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: investigation immediately opened up. And pal was saying it's gonna
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: and it's gonna come back to bite the President and
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: the ass on this one. Because Powell was going to
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: retire goodbye, I'm done, and now he says I'm not leaving.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: He can stay until the end of twenty twenty eight,
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: just not his chair. His term is chair is up,
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: I think Arch April in May, so he's gonna stay there,
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: which is and it's going to hold up the confirmation
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: of his new appointee. So this doesn't make a lot
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: of sense. Okay, By the way, the chair has one vote.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: You know that there's an entire board, and if the
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: share votes one way and the majority vote his way,
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: then the descent doesn't really matter.
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: So why see the chair he just gets the gavel. No,
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: he was a pointed the chair the press the power
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: of being the chair.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: I see if it has more power. I think he's
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: a spokesperson and I don't think he can make the
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: decision unilaterally.
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: iPhone users could be going to a dark place. It's
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: new spyware called dark Sword, and the software exploit, that's
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: what they call. It is capable of penetrating and stealing
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: information from potentially hundreds of millions of Apple iPhones. It's
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: been planted on dozens of websites in Ukraine in recent weeks.
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: It's the second time this month that researchers have found
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: spyware targeting iPhones and other Apple devices.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: Fantastic, Yeah.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: Not clear how many iPhones were vulnerable to dark Sword attacks.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: Researchers say that Apple has been releasing fixes for the
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: underlying bugs, but when they do the fixes, it means
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: you have to update your software, and not everybody does
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: it all the time.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: Okay, around the room, who has an Apple device and iPhone?
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: Neil right here? Oh yeah, okay, Colono yep, Amy yep, right,
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: and yep, Will yep. And I'm right there too, every
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: one of us.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: And so if you have automatic updates on your phone.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: I don't have automatic updates. I do update, but not
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: automatic update. Oh I guess I do, because it tells
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: me I'm gonna you're gonna update tonight yeah, yeah, that's
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: not I guess that's automatic updates. Yeah. You know, I've
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: always been frightened of one of these spyware programs going
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: into my finances and grabbing all the money I have
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: in checking accounts and savings. And I'm told, don't worry
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: about it, don't worry about it. The banks have these firewalls,
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: these protections, And I'm still frightened about this because can
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: you imagine if they had the ability to clean out accounts.
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: You know, you're newly remarried, right, Oh, yeah, well that's different.
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: That's at least I know where to go. All right,
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: you want an investigation, just go against Trump. Former senior
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: intelligence official who resigned. We talked about this, gosh was
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: it earlier this week said that the Iran war was
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: not an imminent threat and did not need to move forward.
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: He's now being investigated. So this show Kent and a
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: longtime Trump ally retiring.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: And appointee and a Trump appointee. Yeah, well, and he
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: now says he resigned, remember we talked about that yesterday,
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: resigned because he said there was no imminent threat, that
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: that's just not true. And he goes, I'm quitting and
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: immediately of course the criminal investigation now will start and
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: irrightly it started before he left. Well, and I don't know.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: He was on Tucker Carlson and he was very interesting
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: by the way. He's an avout anti Semite. You know that,
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: don't you?
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: Uh?
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: And a conspiracy and a conspiracy theorist of the first order.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: That's what you have said. That's true, that's true. I
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: mean there's crazy people that are up there Israel and
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: I know, yeah. Well, he he talked about the Jewish
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: lobby and how the attack on Iran is because Israel
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: and the powerful Jewish lobby in the United States forced
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: Trump that Trump is an acolyte of Netanyahu. And you
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: can't say that about Trump. I don't believe it for
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: one thing. Uh. No, no one tells Trump what to do.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: I mean, Trump does what he wants to do. Was
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: he influenced by Nitta Yahu? Yeah? Probably?
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: Uh?
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: And given in and given intelligence by Nathania who probably
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: Now Israeli intelligence is superb. But tell me it's not biased.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: How could it not be biased? Because as has been
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: described by Ntsan Yahoo, and it's true, Iran is an
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: existential threat to Israel. It would destroy Israel. Tomorrow afternoon,
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: if you could so. Anyway, another criminal investigation is up
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: and running. Oh and the President said when he was
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: asked about the resignation, he said, I Kent's a nice
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: enough guy, but I thought he was weak. I always
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: thought he was weak. He's your appointee.
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: Moving on, it's a date. The date is April fourteenth.
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: That is the date that the Teachers' Union and Service
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: Employees Union in Los Angeles say they will join forces
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: and go on strike if no contract deal is reached
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: before then. The strike would affect almost four hundred thousand
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: students and more than sixty thousand district workers. Teachers, counselors, nurses,
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: bus drivers, janitors, and cafeteria workers would walk off the job.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: Yep, it's going to be another one. And this is
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: labor flexing its muscle. Labor's back up. It was to
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: the point where labor was enormously strong. My dad was
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: part of the union electricians labor. He was a union member,
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: tremendous benefits. And then when you talk about the sixties
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: and seventies, labor started falling apart. And now it's back
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: with a vengeance. So we'll see. I think the strike's
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: going to happen.
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: If I had to guess, surgeons, tattoo artists, and airline
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: pilots are these people you don't want to hear say.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: Oops. True.
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: Heard our own Amy King talking about this very close
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: call between a plane and a helicopter there near Hollywood
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: Burbank Airport. It happened earlier this month on March second,
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: But you had a Beachcraft ninety nine was cleared to
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: land at Burbank Airport will a helicopter crossed into its
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: final approach path. The helicopters saw the plane and made
• 24:55
  Speaker 5: a right hand turn to avoid the incoming plane. So
• 24:59
  Speaker 5: that could have been pretty horrific, is my guess.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, now it has to be. Now it's radar no
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: longer visual usually during the day and everybody can see everybody.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: You're on visual control, you watch out for everybody else.
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: Now it's going to be on radar and controlled by
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: the control tower, which is new.
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: Do you know what's interesting? Do you remember back in
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: the it was the end of January when Jennifer Hammandy,
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: the head of the National Transportation Safety Board said, you
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: know what Burbank Airport like, singled out Burbank as an
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: airport where there could be a mid air collision.
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: And there it is. It's close close spur Bank, very
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: busy airport. And it's right next to Van Eyes Airport.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Do you know that Van Eyes, which is a private airport,
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: private planes, it's not a general airport, is the busiest
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: general airport in the United States. More private planes take off,
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: it's a jet, private jet, et cetera. More private planes
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: take off from there in Land than any other airport
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: in the United States general airport. You and I have
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: flown out of there a couple of times. You bet
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: we have. You bet we have helicopters, planes, it's meat
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: and trains and even automobiles. Those aren't pillows. All right,
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: we knew one. I think we can do one more,
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: Neil or Amy, Right, this is it?
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, Pharrell could have written a song about this place.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: Uh huh okay. According to the latest edition of the
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: World Happiness Report, the three happiest countries in the world
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: are Finland, Iceland, and Denmark. Finland was number one. And
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: are you from Finland?
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: Denmark?
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: I think she's from Denmark. Yeah, yeah, okay, So that's one, two, three,
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: and then Costa Rica is fourth. Then back to the
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: Nordic country. Sweden is fifth, Norway sixth, the Netherlands is seventh,
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: Luxembourg is nine, and Switzerland is ten.
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: The Danish countries or the Scandinavian countries have four years
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: and years and years been the happiest place. Can you
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: imagine if Disneyland were to build a Disney park in Finland,
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: it would be the happiest place on Earth, within the
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: happiest place on Earth?
• 27:24
  Speaker 5: Would they have to change it to the second the
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: second half the happiest place on Earth?
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: The second happiest place in Denmark is flipping us all off.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: I don't know Kona's joining in on it, okay, I
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: have no idea what he's saying. Let's get out of here. Yeah,
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: let's let's just get out of here. We're done, all right.
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: A story that broke a couple of days ago that
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: has become much bigger than I thought it was going
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: to be is Caesar Chavez. And adding to that story
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: is Dlorus Suerta, who is basically as big a name,
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: just not particularly paid enough attention to with the farm
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: workers Union. Now I'll talk about that coming up. This
• 28:07
