• 1:43
  Speaker 2: got married by the Wayheim, I was there. Yeah, I
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: know that worked out very well. She was married for
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: ten months when she fell out for the divorce. It
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: was by far. I often say, if I had taken
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: the money and just lit it on fire, I at
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: least would have gotten a little bit of heat out
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: of it. But it was it was tough in any case.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: All right, what do we have doing today? Some some
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump news? What a shocker that one is. Weather.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: It's going to be a hot day today, not crazy hot.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: The weather on the East Coast is insane in the Midwest.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: And then Hurricane La la They wanted Lulu, but that
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: was the name of a stripper, so intent instead it
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: was La la Is and it hit the Big Island
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: and one of the coasts had forty two inches. Forty
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: two inches of rain. I mean that's over a yard.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Can you imagine, not inches? Not measuring it by feet injury,
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: measuring the rain by a yard over what a three
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: four day period? Just crazy making. Yeah, a lot of troubles,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: to say the least, except we're in great shape here.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: We're in we're very very lucky here. As a matter
• 3:09

• 3:14
  Speaker 4: eighties and nineties, seventy six beaches.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: See, that's that's why people come. That's why I hate
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: the Rose Parade when it's great weather, because you have
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: people in upstate New York where the snow drift is
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: over the eaves of the house, and when they walk
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: through to the sidewalk or their car that's outside, they're
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: literally looking up because this what. The walkway has a
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: wall that's twelve feet high, and it's eighty degrees out here,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: and it's sunny and beautiful. And that's January first, And Okay,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: come on, guys, really we're going to stay here. No,

• 4:02
  Speaker 2: a little tiny project that's being built two thousand homes
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: or within half a mile of my house. Is that

  Speaker 3: Not comfortable with. His sexuality.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: I know it certainly is not.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: He so many marks against him. He doesn't want to.
• 5:39

• 5:41

• 5:55
  Speaker 2: hello to everybody Cono and I said hello to Will
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: and Neil. Okay, we're all the excellent. Let's do it. It
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: is time for handle on the news on this Monday morning.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: This is KFI and it's lead story, right, some Trump news.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: He's pretty pissed off about South Korea not helping out
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: in the war in Iran. So what he has done
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: is reduce military exercises with South Korea that happened every year,
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: and he only reduced the part that he didn't reduce.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: He couldn't reduce, so he did what he could. And
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: these exercises joint military exercises, ten days, eighteen thousand South
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Korean military folks. And it was that they get very sophisticated.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: I mean they're really extensive training, encounter drones, GPS, jamming,
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: cyber attacks, I mean all of it. And he is
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: really unhappy and he pointed out, which I thought was
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: kind of interesting. While he is or while he announced
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: that he was cutting back on the expenditure, cutting back
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: on the level of cooperation between the US and South Korea,
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: he describes his quote very good relationship with Kim John Un.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's just nuts. Our friends or our enemies
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: or our enemies are now our friends. And man, I
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: don't understand any of it. And he's not very happy
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: because the entire world said, no, thank you, we're not
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: getting involved in helping you with Iran.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: He has been trying to reduce these for years. This
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: isn't a new thing.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: That's true. That's true, but I think he's connected it
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: politically at this point. And that was and prior to this,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: I don't think he did connected politically. It was just
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: a question of expenditure, which I find kind of surprising
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: because one of the things about this president is he
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: goes balls to the wall when it comes to military expenditure.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's a big fan of spending money on
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: the military, So that is surprising maybe to a bunch
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: of Koreans. And he'd rather not do military exercises with
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: Korea or doesn't believe the North Korea is going to
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: be that big of a threat, and I tend to
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: think that Kim Jong owen is not going to be
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: that big of a threat. I don't think he's going
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: to attack anybody or anything anytime soon.
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: Meta under the Microscope. Meta is headed to court starts
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: tomorrow in Oakland. It's a major lawsuit alleging that the
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: company violated child safety and consumer protection laws and harmed
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: children's mental health. It's part of a lawsuit filed by
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: twenty nine states, including of course, California. Testimony will include
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: Meta's CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Instagram CEO Adam Mussi. The
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: suit claims that Meta developed and refined a set of
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: psychologically manipulative platform features designed to maximize young users time
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: spent on its social media platforms, including infinite scroll, auto play, likes,
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: and more.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: Now, if I read this correctly, damages could be one
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: point four trillion dollars, So I'm assuming it is damages
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: per use per child that were the only way to
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: get to be that high, and the entire car capitalization
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: the company is worth one point five trillion, and effectively
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: the fine would be the entire value of the company.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: We're not talking about money in the bank. We're talking
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: about earnings, We're on talking about profit, We're talking about
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: everything about Meta. Okay, we'll see what happens with that one.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: If the judge, if they found that Meta was guilty
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: of doing this or responsible for doing this because it's
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: civil right, could the judge say, I know that's too much.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Judges have the ability to say that all
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: the time. Absolutely. When you see massive settlements, civil settlements
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: where a plaintiff goes up there and let's say against
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: Johnson and Johnson, you know, for a case of ovarian cancer,
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: and the jury comes back with a two hundred and
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: forty million dollar award for a plaintiff, judge often goes
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: the defense. It's called remitter, and the judge is then
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: brings it back to what the judge thinks is reasonable.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: So you don't see forty to fifty eighty million dollar awards.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: The judge brings it back to two three four million dollars.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: You'll see that often, all.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: Right, So Taylor Farms in Mexico finally finally getting investigated.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: It had been some seven years or something since last
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: time federal regulators have been out there, so now the
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: Food and Drug Administration is conducting an inspection and collecting
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: samples at Taylor Farms there in Mexico. And the agency
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: said just this past week that the inspection comes almost
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: a month after the California headquartered Taylor Farms said that
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: it was removing iceberg lettuce sourced from Mexico from the marketplace.
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: So it's all involving the cyclosporiasis sporiasis rather and where
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: that's coming from. And as we heard before and talked
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: about seven years, it had been seven years since an
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: American inspector had been over to those farms.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm wondering how long it would take to get
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: another supplier. I mean, we're talking about the Taylor Farms is,
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: if not the biggest, one of the biggest produce suppliers,
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: and if you're talking about them, some of this could
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: literally take take the business out of a business. I
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: mean literally, you have the company has recalled everything and
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: who's going to buy? But the switchover? What do you
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: do with that? Does that mean there's gonna be no
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: lettuce for a period of months, Yes, it's just I'm
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: assuming they're still producing every other kind of lettuce to
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: every other customer out there, and I don't know the
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: answer to that.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: Well, they had other issues besides lettuce, they had jalapeno's,
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: they had some other things as well.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so far we all and just produced. Does Taylor
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: Farms even survive something like this?
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: The FDA should make them change their name to Diarrhea Farms. Yeah,
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: that I think people would probably buy less of their stuff.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: Hayden Panitier has died at the age of thirty six.
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: She was the proper pronunciation.
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: Yes, she was found unresponsive in Greenville, South Carolina yesterday.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: Her dad confirmed that she had died. Said she was
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: an incredible light and a force of nature who brought
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: immeasurable love and joy to all who knew her, and
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: of the millions who watched her on screen. You watched
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: her on screen, probably for the first time that I
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: remember her was in Remember the Titan. She was the
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: assistant coach's kid, and she was spectacular, and then again
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: in Heroes and as Juliette Barnes in Nashville.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to assume that she took her own
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: life because she had gone public with her addiction, recovery
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: and depression, and it was tough. You know, thirty six
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: people don't die of natural causes of thirty six. It's
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: a shame, that really is. Yep, you know when you
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: have young people, actually, when you have anybody who kill themselves,
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: it's kind of a shame. No, that's not true. There
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: are plenty of people that I would be very happy
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: who kill themselves, and I would go through the list,
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: but we still have to do the news.
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: So I think he already did when you said, hello,
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: die every one of them.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: That is probably correct too.
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: But this is a sad story. Very very talented and
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: to see someone that young. You're right, but we don't know.
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: There hasn't been any claims as to why, but a
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: lot of hints.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: Service at sea is being talked about, of course, dealing
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: with the USS Abraham Lincoln, and you had this this
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: is close to home too. This is a San Diego
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: based carrier, got about five one thousand sailors, and you
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: had Admiral Brad Cooper say service at sea for long
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: periods isn't for everyone?
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: And does does that sound like an admission?
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: Well, I he go, there's more to it than that.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: He definitely had different words than Trump, who said you
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: know who's just flat out no, no, no. When asked
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: if the deployment had got too long as a matter
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: of fact, I think he doubled down on that and
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: added not nearly long enough, which is a strange thing
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: to say with other people's lives. But they Lincoln, this
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: San Diego based carrier, with those five thousand sailors on board,
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: is supporting US operations there in the Middle East against
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: you Ron. So Democratic lawmakers obviously are citing these reports,
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: some say they're blown out of proportion. But and as
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: interesting thing that was said is Admiral Brad Cooper insisted
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: that the Lincoln currently has among the lowest number of
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: cases related to mental health issues, which made me wonder about,
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: you know what about the other eleven active aircraft carriers.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: Also, the accusation against the Navy is supplies were running low,
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: food was some par working conditions, toilets were not working properly,
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: and Hegseth said, absolutely not, that is not true. And
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: then Hegseth showed a picture of supplies, plenty of supplies
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: going aboard the ship. So don't know, and these were
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: some family members that were sharing I think just a
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: few plaints among sailors and.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: They've got to be talking to their loved ones, And.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, of course they are.
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: How do you get any more correct than that?
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: How many? And I don't know how many because with
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: five thousand people, there's plenty of disgruntled people aboard. And
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: there are plenty of people I know in that I
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: have volunteered for the service as an all volunteer armed services.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: We have that we're not happy. Oops, I shouldn't have
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: done that. So I don't know where it goes on
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: this one. I don't know who to believe. At this point.
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: The AG says the president kind of likes a fight.
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: Attorney General Todd Blanche she's the brand new Attorney General
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: just sworn in says there's a misnomer about President Trump,
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: which is that he wakes up in the morning, calls
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: me up and says, Todd, go prosecute this. But he
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: does say that Trump expects his cabinet to disagree with
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: him when needed. He said, and he said, he's not
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: a yes man. It made me think of you, Bill
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: Handle when I was watching him during the interviews on
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: the Sunday shows yesterday. He said, Nope, he would expect
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: me to tell him no, if his own legal opinion differed.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what planet? What planet is he on that? He
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: said that? Let me tell you with Todd he gets
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: off the phone with the president. Every time he talks
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: to the president, he does an impression of me when
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: I my life is yes, dear, yes, dear, yes, dear.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: You know what would have been funny if he says
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: that and then his phone rang. He picked it up
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: and said, yes, sir, No, I don't believe that.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: And I'll tell you why I I don't believe it
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: because he does not particularly think that the the Department
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: of Justice should be independent of the president. And there's
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: a lot of thinking in that way because it is
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: an executive branch, the Department of the of the Department
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: of Justice is part of the executive is part of
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: the presidency. And there is an argument and the policy
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: has been independent since the Constitution doesn't hold independence. And
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: as a matter of fact that one of the hearings,
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Blanche took out a copy of the Constitution. He says, here,
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: where is the Department of Justice independent? Where in the
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: constitutions has said that? And he's right. So it's just
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: a question of looking at this philosophical difference, that's all.
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: Does the Department stay independent? Is the SEC independent? Is
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: the FBI independent? And there are plenty of people say no,
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: they all work for the president. Then the issue is
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: does he use the department as a weaponization to go
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: after in terms of retribution. That's a different story entirely.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: But so I don't think for a moment that Blanche
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: is not going to follow exactly what the President wants.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: If the President says go after this person first thing,
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: you know, there only be an indictment. Boom, it's over.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: Okay, I've been trying to read between the lines on
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: this story. It's kind of interesting the pushback here. You've
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: got Los Angeles City Council proposing training requirements for fast
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: food workers. Okay, that sounds like that's great, right. You
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: have the LA City Council currently weighing in new training
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: mandate for the cities sixty seven thousand fast food workers.
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: Yet this recent survey they took found that workers disapprove
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: of some key components of the policy, and the primary
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: concerns is basically focus on the fact that it is
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: a six hour in person training program administered by an
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: outside third party. So this survey they took found that
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: seventy percent of the respondent's disapproved of that proposal. Now
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: there's some logistics stuff. Obviously, people working many hours having
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: kids now have to go to six hour training that
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: is not there at their workplace. But the pushback sounds
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: like people don't want to give their private information to
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: a third party, which makes me believe that maybe they
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: aren't legal residents.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: Why would you give your private information to a third
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: party you work for?
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: Uh, you're training. This is a government training.
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: I understand you're government training for fast food.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why.
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: Wouldn't Wendy's train Wendy's people in McDonald's.
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: Well that's the quiets are every beyond that. Everybody who
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: works for any food location has to be trained outside
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: for certain things. To get you have to be licensed
• 20:29
  Speaker 5: for food handling, which is government controlled and not controlled
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: by the place themselves. It's almost like self police it.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I read I think somewhere I read that even
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: if a customer cannot see you, you have to wash
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: your hands after picking your nose. Uh, they're pretty careful
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: about that.
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: Did you ever work in fast food.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: For just a moment, because they did. They caught me
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: picking my.
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you have to be certified to work with food.
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you have to be when I worked at Wendy's.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's probably changed since then. It has.
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, if you have to work at a restaurant, you do.
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: You have to learn about, you know, proper food. I
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: don't think.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: I don't think the individuals. I think there has been
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: someone on staff has to it's if you look at
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: the certificate, has been someone in management, a person. I
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: don't think everybody has to be licensed. I don't. I
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: think the certificate goes to was ever manager there? And
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: you can look that up. Matter of fact. I was
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: about to do that on Siri, but matter of fact,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: let me look that up. Hey, Siri, does everyone working
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: at a restaurant in California have to be certified in
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: food handling? Do do? Do? Do? Do do doo? Yeah?
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: California requires most food workers to complete an approved food
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: handler training course and obtain a food handled License card
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: within thirty days of employment. I WoT how many actually do?
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: Who would have thought the FOK reporter knew that that's
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: all okay?
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: Because when I look at certificates and restaurants, I see
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: one name up there usually well, yeah, you have.
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: It's not like they're going to have a list of everyone,
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: but they have to have.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: No I understand, but you would think people that are
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: licensed they would put a list up. But let's move
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: on because we good point. I hate it when you're right,
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: but let's move on.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: Don't talk to that evil media. That's the word coming
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: out of Iran. The parliament has approved a bill that
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: would criminalize interviews and other communications with media deemed hostile
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: to the Islamic Republic, including US or Israeli media and
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: other outlets. Interviews or participation in discussions with said media
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: would be banned, and violations would be punishable by six
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: months to two years in prison.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: Now doesn't that I mean run six months to two years?
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: Is that before or after they execute you? Just as
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: you know, to six month two years for violating public
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: policy and then they're like, okay, you could walk out
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: now yeah, oh yeah. Yeah.
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: It's a dangerous world though, but you can walk out
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: of prison now, all right. Laala is again a tropical storm.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: So Hurricane la La, the huge hurricane weekend thankfully to
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: a tropical storm back on Sunday just yesterday, skirting why
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: without making land fall that would have made it La
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: La land fall.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: That's true. But have you seen the video of what
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: that storm did, especially the Big Island as I mentioned
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: when we opened the show up to forty two inches
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: of rain. I mean, it's just oh.
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you had one hundred and thirty thousand households without power.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: I know, it's just it was just crazy. It's been
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: a long time since I think Hawaii was hit with
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: a hurricane, has been what twenty thirty years, But it's
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: a boy was this a killer? Well yeah, I think
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: only one person has died so far, which I guess
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: is in pretty good you know, it's pretty good news.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: So you've got one of the islands, Maui, Molokai, Lenai,
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: I mean goes on and on.
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: Okay, Well, Nick Reiner's trying to get his hands on
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: some cash. It's one point six million dollars sitting in
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: a trust set up by his parents. Of course, he's
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: accused of killing his father and mother, Rob Reiner and
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: Michelle Reiner back in December of last year. They were
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: found stabbed to death in the bedroom of their home
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: in Brentwood. So he's been fighting to get this trust.
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: He says that five hundred and fifty eight thousand of
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: it is owed to him because he was supposed to
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: have access to it starting when he was thirty. He's
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: thirty two.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: Now, yeah, that gets interesting, because can you You can't
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: inherit money or sell any story of criminal of any
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: criminal action you have is taken place. He has not
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: been convicted. That's for starters. And number two, if this
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: money is to be used for his defense, and only
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: for his defense, I can't see the court saying no
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: to that.
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: So you better believe that those attorneys are like, aren't
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: you there's some money?
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I know the attorneys. You got. The attorneys
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: are arguing for that money to be released, but only
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: to them, So the court restricts what they can do
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: with the money. So I don't know what's going to happen,
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: because obviously I don't do that kind of law. Frankly,
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: I don't do much of any kind of law.
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: But it's on Saturdays.
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: I know it's really depressing, and I don't I don't
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: see the court not releasing it.
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: Wow, Ain't that about a bitch?
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: The world's large, as it is fascinating. Fully, Battery Power
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: Jet officially completed its made in flight, and I chuckled
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: because I thought, wait a second, I can't bring batteries
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: on the plane. But now they can put batteries on
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: the plane. Uh so the it was a success. The
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: test marks a noteworthy step forward and long the way
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: to electrical aircraft and battery technology. So pretty amazing. And
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: it's manufacturing manufactured rather here in Los Angeles with the
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: LA based Heart Aerospace called the X one. Pretty pretty
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: You would.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: Think there have been planes that have been solar powered,
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: but they have solar panels on the on the the
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: upper part of the wing, and that there's been one
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: that's gone across the English Channel, for example, a solar
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: powered one, but never a battery powered. Batteries are heavy.
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: I mean they are really heavy. I wonder if they
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: used a Crookland batteries because it's such a great deal
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: instead of.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: The name brand. They must have gone to Costco. Yeah, yeah,
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: that makes sense. Yeah, it does not a specific proprietary battery.
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: They just go to Costco.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: President sure loves his big Max. Health and Human Services
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior, who's working on MAHA Make
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: America Healthy Again, says that when he flies with the president.
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: There's boxes and boxes of McDonald's in the plane. Wow,
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: he says. When you get on his plane, it's just
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: boxes and boxes of McDonald's. He says he doesn't try
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: to shame the president. It's not his job. He says,
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: I'm not like a scold. He said. He eats really
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: good food most of the time, but when he's traveling,
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: he likes to eat food from national chains because he's
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: scared of getting food poisoning.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't know. I would think he just happens
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: to like a fast food I think is what the
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: reason is. I doubt the issue is because he's afraid
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: of getting food poisoning. Well, you think secret service wouldn't
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: have some kind of arrangement for the food other than
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: fast food. And it doesn't make any sense because diet
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: coke and he likes his fast food. It's just that simple.
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: Who was the other president who was a huge McDonald's person? Clinton?
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: Bill Clinton? Yeah, Clinton loved it. Yeah, and then he had.
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: A heart attack and I think he stopped eating him.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he did, that's true. And uh, you
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: know he was also a diet coke person. Was uh,
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: what's his face? Colin Powell loved his diet coke.
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: Has there ever been a diet pepsi person?
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: No, yes, die diet pepsi people don't exist. Have you
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: ever been to a restaurant ever where you heard is
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: diet coke? Okay, well why don't you? Why don't you
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: research that and see why I never have been. I
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: never have been to a restaurant. I've asked waiter people.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: I've asked both male and female waitresses. I have his
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: have because I asked that question. No. Never, No one
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: says is diet coke? Oh say, okay, no, they don't
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: do that.
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: Well, look into the history miss there. You know he
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: could say, maybe the president should send some of those
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: boxes and boxes of McDonald's to the USS Lincoln.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, wouldn't that work?
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: Nice?
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: Oh, here's okay.
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: So Tomorrowland has often been one of the things that
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: Disneyland fans uh say, Hey, how come you haven't done
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: much to it? They really haven't.
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: And I was just thinking this the last time I
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: was walking through the park, going, yeah, they need to
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: do something with Tomorrowland.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: They just had a couple of times.
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: Yes, they've had a little things, but they now are
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: finally saying they just announced this at D twenty three
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: they're big convention that was held in Anaheim this past
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: weekend that that they're gonna, you know, judge up the
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: aging Tomorrowland. And they said it's going to be large
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: scale overhaul, new attractions and the like, and maybe some
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: refreshers of old ones. But they just said soon.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, which means I mean they're going to be putting
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: billions in there. They haven't decided which projects put in.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: Maybe they already have and we don't know about it.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: But even while Disney said, when you talk about tomorrow Land,
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: tomorrow happens very very quickly, and then tomorrow Land passes
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, it's yesterday Land. And the
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: only thing that works, I think is retro stuff that
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: never gets old. Ever, so if they were, for example,
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: they do I was just thinking the first flight to
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: the moon. Uh you know, have that kind of a
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: ride that way used to have the trip to the moon.
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and that ridiculous uh oh yeah, there was.
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: When you see them, you'd see the earth.
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: And you hear and and then the seats would rumble
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: and it was it was kind of lame, it really was.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: And they have a ton of unused space there where. Yeah,
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: the World Tomorrow or whatever. That carousel, the carousel you
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: know they had. There was that ride there where people
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: were crushed to death. I think there was only one
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: that was actually crushed to death. Oh yeah, Amy, there
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: was one employee on one of the gallops sixty. I
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: don't know, it doesn't matter. It was the carousel. It
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: was the carousel of crushing people to death. Look it up.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: That was the name of the ride.
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Amy, they haven't. They did. They did some Star
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: Wars Paraphernelia still.
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: Have the launch pad and that's where America things used
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: to be. But it's a cool thing if you're a
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: Star Wars fan. But it's just a static display.
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a So.
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: They have a lot of buildings that are unused, a
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: lot of structures there that could be Okay, we're done, guys,
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: coming up California. We were going to get out of
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: the nuke business. Guess what, We're going back into the
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: nuke business. And we're gonna go balls to wall even
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: if those balls are glowing green. And I'll tell you
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: all about that when we come back. KF I am
