• 0:55
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Sound like you knew a little something.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: And the thing is that in California, it really isn't
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: much higher than it has been.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Let me tell you something.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to lie. I normally, this is going
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: to sound bougie, but it's not. I don't go to
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: the grocery store. I'm an Instacart-aholic, okay? But I went
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: to the grocery store over the weekend, and I was
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: just appalled at the prices.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I went to Pavilion.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Okay. Okay.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: And when I tell you, I picked it. You do.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to say.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Common people go to Ralph's.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Well, Ralph's is kind of like Pavilion.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: It's the target.
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: But let me tell you something. I picked up a
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: bag of lemons and them suckers were $ 8. 99.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Then why didn't you make lemonade? Because when life gives
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: you lemonade.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: Well, you got to bottle lemons first. You got to
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: buy them first before you can get on to make
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: the lemonade. I was like, what in the tomfoolery is happening?
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: I went to the grocery store yesterday.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: $ 8.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: 99 for some lemons? Oh, my God.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: I was like, okay, let me go to the ginger section.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: I was trying to do a little healthy thing, a
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: little ginger, a little, you know, lemon and cayenne. The ginger,
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: which is, you know, it's normally fairly cheap. And I'm
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: not talking about the, the lemons were not organic.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: By the way. These are just a regular 100 meal
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: down the street jack lemons.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: You should have just drove on down Ventura Boulevard long enough.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Man, let me tell you something.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Look at that Mexican with the rainbow umbrella.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: I'm going to look for him the next time. That
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: ginger was $ 5.
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: 99. Yeah.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: I'm thinking to myself, what is happening? And then you
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: talk about the price of gas. I filled my truck up.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: It's almost $ 140.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: I filled mine up. It was $ 182.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: I believe it.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: That was crazy. That's crazy. We're going to have to
• 2:29

  Speaker 1: for all of the details. Jasmine Sanders, can you please
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: tell us what's trending? Well, the press versus Trump. I
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: don't know if you've been following this, but wow, my goodness.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: So Obviously, Donald Trump banned a lot of members of
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: the press from CNN, MSN, Now, Politico.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: All the people they own. All the people, yeah, from
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: coming to the White House.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: Now, originally, you know, they just basically were kind of
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: arguing about this back and forth.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: But now they're suing Trump over this particular ban.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: And they're going to win.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: Well, there are some people who say that he has
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: a right to ban them.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: That is a Republican Congress senator from Ohio. Of course,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: it's not true. They'll say he has the right to
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: do anything, but he doesn't. Yeah. He can't keep the
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: press out of it. Here's the problem. Everybody is going
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: to give you bad news because things are inherently bad. Yeah.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Like it ain't that like that. Like that move. Don't
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: nobody bring me no bad news. And even they're quietly
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: telling him that all of the election is not going
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: to go well. And that people are blaming him. I
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: said this before. This is not a case of things
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: he didn't get that he wanted. He got exactly what
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: he wanted. And they were dumb decisions. And they admired
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: this country in debt and in all kinds of things.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: And it's his ticket. He got it. It's his sandwich.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: You got to lay in it.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: It is.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: It's real.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: It's interesting, though, to watch them. twist the truth about,
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: you know, what you mean? Lie.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: Well, twist the truth, lie, all of those things. But
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: it is interesting to watch how far they'll go just
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: to protect him. And we know they're all lies. And
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: speaking of lies, uh, also trending, people are talking about
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: Jay-Z and eight.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys have seen this.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: Um, But a lot of people on social media are
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: saying that he's lying quite a bit and he's leaving
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: out a lot of the truth, a lot of what
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: actually happened in some of the circumstances that he's talking about.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: I actually watched it. I'm still missing some of them.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: I haven't seen all of them. And I actually think
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: it's pretty good. I don't know. I don't know his
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: life like that to say whether or not. He's telling
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: the truth or not. But he did have an interesting
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: story that reminded me a lot of something that happened
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: to you. And that's with Rick Rubin, who is actually
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: the one interviewing him. And he talked about how Rick
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: Rubin talked about how when he way back in the
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: day when he was much heavier and unhealthy, he was
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: in first class and he sat.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Look, he looked right away like, yep, that's my language.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: He sat down and he had back issues back then
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: and the seat would not recline. He goes and he
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: tells the flight attendant that the seat won't recline. And
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: she says, there's nothing we can do. First class is
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: sold out. He comes and he sits down and he
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: hear a voice that says, excuse me, sir, I'll trade
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: seats with you. The guy trades seats with him. He
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: goes on. They're flying, I think, to New York, I think,
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: from L.A. He ends up in New York. He goes
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: to a show because a friend of his is doing
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: a show there. And he looks on stage and it's Jay-Z.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: And he says, wow, that's the guy who traded seats
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: with me. And he didn't know who he was. And
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: it was a full circle kind of moment. about how
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: doing something nice for someone, and then it comes back around.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: But that isn't what happened with Shaq. You gave somebody
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: your cachet, he gave you a tin bag. See, that's
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: the thing. That was way different. I could even see
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Papa John's giving him something.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: After that, and I.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: Love the fact that online, that guy Matthew just grabbed
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: all his stuff and threw it all in the trash.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Like, I don't care. And then Shaq tried to be
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: petty and came back and called him broke.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, everybody broke compared to Shaq. Yeah, for sure.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: But that backfired on Shaq, too.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you something.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: He's still trying to get out of that hole.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: If Shaq would have worked as hard on his free
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: throws as he does collecting these fake-ass badges.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: Amen, brother. Amen.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: I swear to God.
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: Amen.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: I swear to God. I ain't seen him make this
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: many dumb-ass moves since his time.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: And that's what's trending. That is what's trending.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: All right, coming up. All right, coming up.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: She's jazz.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: She's smart.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: It's the Jazzy Report on the D.L.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Hughley Show.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: California added new protections around its elections with Gavin Newsom
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: signing a slate of 13 bills that he say are
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: aimed squarely at blocking interference by Trump and his allies.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: The measures move up the opening of ballot drop boxes
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: to 30 days before an election, allowing counties to expand
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: non-electeering zones to 200 feet around polls and bar police
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: for making arrests near voting sites.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: I like it. Come on, Governor Gavin.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: You know, we can we can you can online you
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: can on Instagram. They ask you if you register to vote.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: They sure will. As soon as you open.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I think I think ultimately, I think that if
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: there is ever a new different administration, they should abolish
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: the Electoral College and they should make voting mandatory.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: I agree with you.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking about, you know, jury duty is mandatory.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying you have to vote for anybody. You
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: could take none of the above. But you've got to
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: say something.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: You shouldn't be able to do that. You can't just
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: not say I ain't going to jury duty.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: And I think it should be the same way about voting.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: I mean, if you're participating in all of the civil
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: liberties and whatnot, you should have to vote.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: And I think if your state votes against the stuff
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: that people benefit from, like all these red states are
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: voting against, you shouldn't get the things like they should
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: never have gotten out of this infrastructure money since everybody
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: voted against it. Yep. You shouldn't get Medicaid money since
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: everybody voted. You should get the stuff you actually voted
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: for or against.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: You better come on with some.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Come on now.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you.
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: Well, in gym classes across the country, kids are now
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: learning to ride bikes. All kids bikes teaches kids how
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: to ride the bikes and visit with access to learning
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: in 2000 U.S.
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: Schools.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: Now, some schools also pair the curriculum with other programs.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: to teach road and pedestrian safety and expand access for
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: children with disabilities.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, to ride a bike, you got to
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: go outside. So first they got to have a mandatory. Yeah.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: It's like even they cut PE and wonder why people
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: got diabetes. All you need is a patch of grass
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: and a ball. That's all you need. Play a little kickball.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: That's it.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: A little tag.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah. A little murder ball.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Murder ball.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: It's like dodgeball, but you throw it harder. Yeah, because
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: you throw it hard on purpose. Straight to the face. So,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: that's not that's not murder that's a weekend travel influencer Dr.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Beaches asked a question on audio would you want $ 50, 000
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: a month and never have to work again or $ 5, 000
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: a month and keep doing the same job right now
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: which one are you taking so this is the audio.
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: Alright y'all I gotta jump in on this conversation so
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: The people want to know, would you take $ 50, 000 a
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: month and not have to work again?
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: You just get paid.
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: Or keep your same job right now and.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: You make $ 500, 000 a month.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: Which would you do?
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Me personally, I'm taking $ 50, 000 a month.
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: I don't want to work.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: I think the people who say.
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: They want to keep working to make $ 500, 000, I don't
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: understand your logic. Some people are saying, well, if you work...
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: You stack your money, you can retire. Bro, if I'm
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: making $ 50, 000 a month not working, I'm retired. What other
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: money do I need?
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: I'm making $ 50, 000 a month.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: There's not anything really more that you're going to do
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: that I can't do by making $ 50, 000 versus you making $ 500, 000.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: There's not too many things you're going to be able
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: to do that I can't do. Give me the $ 50, 000
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: all day, but which one would you pick?
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Which one would you take? You could get $ 50, 000 a
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: month and never have to work again or $ 500, 000 a
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: month and still keep doing your same job.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: Wait, what?
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So would you rather take $ 50, 000 a month and
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: never have to work again? And never work again. So
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: that'd be $ 600, 000 a year.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Or would you take $ 12, 000, 000 a year? Because what is it? Women. No,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: that'd be $ 6, 000, 000 a year, wouldn't it?
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: No.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Wait, I'm so confused. 500,000 times 10, it'd be 600,000.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: That'd be $ 6 million a year. That's what I'm saying.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: And keep doing your job right now. I know I would.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: So which one are you taking?

  Speaker 1: Yeah, not me. I mean, I don't hate nobody at
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: work that bad.
