• 0:45
  Speaker 1: at a Dodger game. I gotta admit, you do sweat
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: a little in those daytime games because you're just sitting
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: out in the exposed sun. But another great win for
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: the Dodgers. Very excited. Sorry for Ann. The Chargers didn't
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: do so well yesterday. And we got the Rams tonight.

• 1:12
  Speaker 1: driving under the influence of drugs and at a high

  Speaker 1: speed before slamming her SUV into a Metro bus in Chatsworth,

  Speaker 1: killing two and injuring herself and five others. is expected

• 1:48
  Speaker 1: have notified the Trump administration they're filing a lawsuit over
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: being denied White House access. Trump said he was barring
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: them because of reporting he found to be fake news.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: As people get more and more nervous about their investments,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: in spite of a booming stock market, some are turning
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: to precious metals. ABC's Jim Ryan says scammers are seeing
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: that trend and finding ways to take advantage of it.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: That's coming up a little bit later on Wake Up Call. Okay,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: so L.A. continues its assault on every single person who
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: relies on a car to get around the city. I
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: experienced something rather infuriating on Saturday as we were on
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: our way to the L.A. Zoo Zootoper Fest. A little
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Oktoberfest at the zoo. It was fun. Anyway, I'll tell
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: you about that coming up at 520. Also, four and
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: a half days until Neil Saavedra and I go over
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: the edge for Union Rescue Mission. We're headed into the homestretch,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: and we need your help so we can get more
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: people off the street and back on their feet. We'll
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: tell you more about that. Let's get started with some
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: of the stories coming out of the KFI 24-hour newsroom.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Public health officials in California are warning about possible measles
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: exposure in California. several counties because of an infected traveler.
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: The California Department of Public Health said the unvaccinated passenger
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: traveled through the state using Amtrak trains and thruway buses.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: Exposure likely happened in Alameda, Butte, Kern, Los Angeles, Sacramento,
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: and San Joaquin counties. The passenger arrived in California from
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: an Amtrak train to Los Angeles on September 10th. After
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: arriving in L.A., they took a route to Bakersfield. and
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: then went to Stockton, Oroville, Sacramento, and Emeryville before leaving

  Speaker 4: the state for Denver on September 14th.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Lisa Carton, KFI News. San Diego State University is facing
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: a mumps outbreak. County health officials say all five cases
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: have been linked to student athletes on the same team.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: SDSU says three confirmed cases and two possible cases have
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: been found among students. They're no longer considered contagious, but
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: health warnings have been issued on campus. In response to

  Speaker 1: the outbreak, SDSU is urging students to avoid close contact

• 4:14
  Speaker 1: coast guards were notified. The search for him continues, but
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: the man has not been found. California's investing millions more

• 5:02
  Speaker 1: in california governor newsom signed legislation yesterday designating 925 as
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: dolly parton day Newsom said in a statement, we could
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: all afford to live a little more like Dolly. Be kind,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: be humble, and have some fun. Be a diamond in
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: a rhinestone world. And he went on to say, we're
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: creating an annual reminder to us every year to live
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: the way she did, joyfully, graciously, and with a whole
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: lot of heart. I like that.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: I like that.
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: Which day is that?
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: September 25th. September 25th.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: 925.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: 925, okay. Get it? Got it.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Okay. Do you get the correlation?
• 5:40
  Speaker 7: 925.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: There you go. All right. Just wanted to make sure.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Time to say good morning to ABC's tech reporter, Mike Dabusky.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: So Mike, lawmakers finally passed a plan that will allow
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: people to listen to KFI on the radio.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Yes, exactly.
• 5:58
  Speaker 8: Specifically, the House of Representatives passed the AM Radio for
• 6:02
  Speaker 8: Every Vehicle Act. This happened last week before that chamber
• 6:06
  Speaker 8: went on recess. Yes, hooray for us radio folk. This
• 6:10
  Speaker 8: bill would require automakers to include AM radio hardware in
• 6:14
  Speaker 8: all new cars sold in the U.S. It would actually
• 6:16
  Speaker 8: instruct the Department of Transportation to instate a rule requiring
• 6:20
  Speaker 8: as much for this technology to be standard in all
• 6:23
  Speaker 8: new passenger vehicles. It also gets sunsetted after a period
• 6:26
  Speaker 8: of eight years. It was originally proposed as a 10
• 6:29
  Speaker 8: year period, but that was revised down. So the radio
• 6:32
  Speaker 8: industry did not get everything it wanted here. And this
• 6:35
  Speaker 8: has been a long time coming. If you remember back
• 6:37
  Speaker 8: in 2023, a similar bill was proposed and then shot
• 6:40
  Speaker 8: down in large part because of opposition from the auto industry. Audi, BMW, Ford, Porsche, Tesla,
• 6:47
  Speaker 8: and Volvo had already removed AM radio from some of
• 6:50
  Speaker 8: their cars, citing the increased cost of installing hardware that,
• 6:54
  Speaker 8: according to them, was not used by that many people.
• 6:57
  Speaker 8: Some also put forward this idea that electric vehicles might
• 7:00
  Speaker 8: not play well with AM frequencies. That was always kind
• 7:03
  Speaker 8: of a confusing claim. For example, General Motors, as well
• 7:06
  Speaker 8: as Hyundai and Kia, they sell plenty of electric vehicles,
• 7:09
  Speaker 8: all with AM bands in them. So it didn't seem
• 7:11
  Speaker 8: to be a problem for them. Even still, that particular
• 7:14
  Speaker 8: bill didn't go anywhere. But now it is back and
• 7:16
  Speaker 8: inching closer to President Trump's desk. Obviously, this still needs
• 7:19
  Speaker 8: to pass through the Senate and be signed by the
• 7:21
  Speaker 8: president before this becomes a reality.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: OK, and do we know how the Senate is leaning
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: on this? Is there any organized opposition to it?
• 7:30
  Speaker 8: Well, it seems like there's bipartisan support. The Senate version
• 7:33
  Speaker 8: of this bill is co-sponsored by Democrat Ed Markey and
• 7:36
  Speaker 8: Republican Ted Cruz. So it does seem like this thing
• 7:39
  Speaker 8: has a decent chance of becoming a reality. We don't
• 7:42
  Speaker 8: have a timeline, though. The Senate is in session right now,
• 7:45
  Speaker 8: but it goes on recess ahead of the midterms in
• 7:48
  Speaker 8: early October. Even still, President Trump says he will sign
• 7:52
  Speaker 8: it if it does reach his desk eventually. So it
• 7:54
  Speaker 8: does seem like this is, again, a little bit closer
• 7:57
  Speaker 8: to reality.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: Than it ever has been.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Well, that's great news. Welcome For us at KFI. So
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: I have a question for you about the wording in
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: the bill. Does it specifically say that an actual AM
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: radio receiver has to be in the car or they
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: have to have a way to like plug it in?
• 8:19
  Speaker 8: So this means building in, there's a quote from the
• 8:22
  Speaker 8: piece of legislation, devices that can receive signals and play
• 8:25
  Speaker 8: content transmitted by AM stations. So a receiver, essentially, and
• 8:30
  Speaker 8: that that must be easily accessible to drivers. So it's
• 8:33
  Speaker 8: actual hardware that is being required to be put into
• 8:36
  Speaker 8: these cars. Hardware that has been in cars for a very,
• 8:39
  Speaker 8: very long time. But, you know, there was this effort,
• 8:41
  Speaker 8: you know, in recent years among these automakers to, you know,
• 8:44
  Speaker 8: to kind of remove it as either a cost cutting
• 8:45
  Speaker 8: measure or other things. But even still, like it is
• 8:48
  Speaker 8: it's not just a sort of like now you can
• 8:50
  Speaker 8: get the AM frequency over, you know, Apple CarPlay through
• 8:53
  Speaker 8: the Internet. This is actual like a hardware receiver that
• 8:56
  Speaker 8: is built into your car somewhere.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: All right. Mike Daboski, thanks so much for the update.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: We appreciate it.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: No problem.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: Take care. Do you love that little echo? Did you
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: hear that little echo? I hate when those things happen.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Technical difficulties. Let's get back to some of the stories
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: coming out of the KFI 24 hour newsroom. CNN, MSNOW
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: and Politico say they have notified the Trump administration that
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: they are filing a lawsuit over denied access to the
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: White House. Journalists from the three outlets were barred from
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: entering the White House Saturday, the day after Trump's declaration.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: He announced the ban on social media and accused the
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: outlets of writing lies about him. He also warned other
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: fake news media outlets to follow, as he put it.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: According to the lawsuit, the Constitution protects the liberty and
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: property interests that news organizations and White House reporters have
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: in their press credentials. And the access to those credentials
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: afford them the ability to cover the White House for
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: the benefit of the public. New Jersey Democratic Senator Cory
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Booker says the president has no regard for constitutional protections for...
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: a free press. Booker also accused the Trump administration yesterday
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: on Meet the Press of using technology the Justice Department,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: to retaliate against journalists.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Look at what he did after the Qatar airway, that
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: sort of, I call it, cowardice.
• 10:13
  Speaker 9: Retreat from the airplane where he escaped in a dining car. Immediately,
• 10:18
  Speaker 9: they started launching investigations against those reporters.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Trump says he banned CNN, MSNOW, and Politico because he
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: considers their coverage false. And as I mentioned, he says
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: other media outlets could face similar restrictions. It'll be interesting
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: to see how it plays out in court because remember
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: when Trump It was during his first time that he
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: banned Jim Acosta from being part of the White House
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: press briefings. And that decision was reversed. So we shall see.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: An ICE officer has shot a man from Venezuela during
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: an immigration enforcement operation in Austin, Texas.
• 10:52
  Speaker 7: A source told NBC News the man was in the U.S.
• 10:54
  Speaker 7: illegally and was subject to a final order of removal.
• 10:57
  Speaker 7: He was taken to a local hospital with a gunshot
• 11:00
  Speaker 7: wound to the torso and was in serious but stable condition.
• 11:03
  Speaker 7: Texas DPS says ICE requested help pursuing a blue Toyota Corolla,
• 11:07
  Speaker 7: but the shooting happened before state troopers arrived. Video verified
• 11:10
  Speaker 7: by NBC News appears to show a dark SUV confronting
• 11:13
  Speaker 7: the Corolla, followed by screeching tires and at least three gunshots.
• 11:18
  Speaker 7: Mark Mayfield, KFI News.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: A senior official with the Iran-backed Houthi rebels has warned
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: countries against joining forces with Saudi Arabia in Yemen's revived
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: civil war. He also said in an interview yesterday that
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: the Houthis told the Trump administration they won't attack U.S.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: ships in the Red Sea. Mohammed al-Bukhari is a member
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: of the Houthis political bureau. He says the U.S. contacted
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: the rebels through Oman to ask about their intentions. He
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: says the Houthis are not targeting the U.S. or other nations,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: only Saudi Arabia, which has backed Yemen's internationally recognized government.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: An explosion inside the heavily fortified DMZ separating the Koreas
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: has injured three South Korean military officers. The country's defense
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: ministry says the explosion happened during an unspecified operation. The
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: cause of the explosion wasn't immediately clear. Officials didn't say
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: whether it may have been caused by a landmine planted
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: by North Korea. The North has added mines, anti-tank barriers
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: and other frontline fortifications in recent months as relations between
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: the two countries have worsened. President Trump set to meet
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: again with New York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani.
• 12:33
  Speaker 10: The mayor's office confirmed the two will meet to discuss
• 12:36
  Speaker 10: issues affecting New Yorkers while the president is in town
• 12:39
  Speaker 10: for the United Nations General Assembly meeting. Trump is set
• 12:42
  Speaker 10: to deliver remarks on Tuesday and meet with global leaders.
• 12:45
  Speaker 10: This will be the third public meeting between Trump and
• 12:48
  Speaker 10: the Democratic mayor, who was elected almost a year ago.
• 12:51
  Speaker 10: Mamdani has clashed with the president on a number of issues,
• 12:55
  Speaker 10: including the decision to go to war with Iran. In
• 12:57
  Speaker 10: New York, I'm Leslie Radabali.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Another one of those leaders that Trump is planning to
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: meet with is British Prime Minister Andy Burnham. It's expected
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: to happen on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Burnham plans to talk about ways to bolster Ukraine's defenses
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: and ease fuel prices that have soared since the Iran
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: and Israel-U.S.
• 13:20
  Speaker 11: War.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Burnham was once critical of Trump, but now says he
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: wants to seek common ground. President Trump is set to
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: host Chinese President Xi Jinping at the White House later
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: this week. Trade and AI are among the issues expected
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: to be discussed. The visit follows Trump's trip to China
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: in May, where he was greeted with a red carpet
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: and lots of waving flags. Trump is expected to host
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: a state dinner for Xi. And President Trump says his
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: proposed arch in Washington, D.C., would be used as a
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: top grade military complex. ABC's Stephen Portnoy says the president
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: posted on Truth Social that he agreed to it at
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: the strong request of the United States military and for
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: national security purposes.
• 13:59
  Speaker 12: He says it will house, store and have the rapid
• 14:02
  Speaker 12: ability to use a large number of drones. Plus, he
• 14:05
  Speaker 12: says snipers on both the roof and the plaza areas.
• 14:09
  Speaker 12: And he says, in addition, it would hold large quantities
• 14:12
  Speaker 12: of sniper ammunition.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Three Vietnam veterans are suing over the arch. They say
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: the very large structure threatens the historic skyline and violates
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: legal procedures for federal construction projects. Governor Newsom has made
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: another signing stop in the state. He was at the L.A.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: Coliseum yesterday to sign three bills aimed at boosting the
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: city's preparation for the 2028 Olympic Games. The bills provide
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: $ 7 million in new investment, in addition to the $ 96
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: million announced earlier this summer to upgrade and modernize Exposition Park.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: Protesters have gathered in Austin, Texas, following an ICE agent
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: shooting in the city. A man from Venezuela said, had
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: a final order of removal in place. He apparently tried
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: to run off. His agents attempted to detain him. He
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: was shot. He is in serious but stable condition at
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: the hospital. Toys R Us coming back in time for Christmas.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: The toy retailer announced late last week that it will
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: be opening 120 new standalone stores across the country in
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: time for the holiday season. 40 stores have already opened.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: The company hasn't announced where the stores are going to
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: be or specific opening dates. At 6.05, it's Handle on
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: the News. CNN, MSNOW and Politico say they're going to
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: sue the White House after their reporters were banned. Bill's
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: going to have a couple of things to say about that,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: I would imagine. OK, so I'm driving around on Saturday.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: And we're going to the Zootoberfest. At the L.A. Zoo,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: which was very cute. I was going to do an
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: out and about and share it with you, but it
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: was just this the one weekend. So next year you
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: might want to go. It was really great. But they've
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: got some cool events coming up at the zoo for
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: the holidays. So we'll probably go out and about for that.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: Maybe boo at the zoo. Zoo lights. Those are all
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: coming up. Anyway, we're driving through Griffith Park to get
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: to the L.A.
• 16:06
  Speaker 10: Zoo.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: And on Riverside Drive, as you're headed toward the park,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: you're heading north into the park. They've restricted the lanes
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: on the streets. They've put those bollards in. So they're,
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: instead of having two lanes of traffic in each direction,
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: there's one lane of traffic in each direction. And then
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: the bollards take up about the size of a lane.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: And then there's another lane that's about the size of
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: a regular traffic lane for bikes. I'm like, and I
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: know it's this road dialect and they've been doing it
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: around the city, but now they've done it in the park.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: So the whole park where there used to be two
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: traffic lanes in each direction, it's now down to one.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: And I was like, you know what? This is just
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: an affront. It's just making traffic worse because we cannot
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: get out of our cars in L.A. We're not going to.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: It's not physically possible. It's not New York City. It's
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: not Chicago where you can get around on the L's.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: But you were inside of a park.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: I was inside of a park, but it used to
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: be two lanes of traffic in each direction, and now
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: it's down to one in each direction, which, again, just
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: creates bottlenecks. It wasn't so bad on a Saturday because
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: it's Saturday, right? But probably on mornings when people don't
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: want to head on the 5 or the 134, they
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: probably go through the park. And then they have this big,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: beautiful bike lane. Isn't it great? Did you see any bikes?
• 17:32
  Speaker 10: None.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Not one bike. And you drive through pretty much the
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: whole park.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: And it's just so frustrating. Again, I'm all for a lot.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: There was room for a bike lane before. They didn't
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: have to take out a whole lane of traffic and
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: put the bollards there. And then the topper on this.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: And tell me if you don't agree with this. They
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: didn't fix the road before they chopped it up and
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: reduced the traffic in each direction. There were potholes all
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: over the place on that road in the park. I'm like,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: fix the roads in the park first. Like, what are
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: you spending money on? In my neighborhood, there are potholes
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: so big that they've put up those, the warning signs,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: the white with the reflector tape. They've got those up
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: all over the place around where the road needs to
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: be fixed.
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: Sure.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: And they've been that way for a couple of years
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: and they're not fixing the road. But they're putting up
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: bollards and restricting that traffic.
• 18:29
  Speaker 9: They did have a very tragic incident just a couple
• 18:31
  Speaker 9: of years ago. Somebody got killed. And I think maybe
• 18:33
  Speaker 9: there was perhaps a bit of an overreaction to that.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Somebody gets killed on the roadway in cars every single day.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: So I get the argument. But also bicyclists need to
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: be aware of their surroundings. Drivers need to be aware
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: of their surroundings. And please, I don't want any bicyclists.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: bicyclists to get hurt. And I don't want any drivers
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: to get hurt. But I just think restricting the traffic
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: that way, it just makes it harder to get around
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: when traffic is already a mess. Going over the edge.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Four and a half days to go until we make
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: the jump for Union Rescue Mission. I want to say
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: thank you so much to everybody who's donated. We've had
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: a lot of people pony up some cash. And we
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: know that times are tight, but we We want you
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: to help this organization because this organization actually helps homeless
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: people get back on their feet and off the street permanently.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: In fact, we're going to be talking to a lady
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: named Irene who went through the program. They have a
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: whole program to not only bring these people in, give
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: them a place to stay and feed them a meal,
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: but also bring them in, get them counseling, get them sober,
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: get them educated and help them figure out the best
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: way to successfully reenter society. So thanks so much to
• 19:54

• 20:20
  Speaker 1: Saavedra or to me, doesn't matter. It all goes to
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: the same pot. And we're making some headway, but we
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: got a ways to go for our goal. So anything
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: you can spare away, I would have so, so appreciated.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: And just one note, I did get a DM from somebody.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Because when we talked to Mark Hood, who's the CEO,
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: and we talked about going over the edge and that
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: it's rather terrifying. And he said, everybody's always made it
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: to the ground. And then I got a DM from
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: Scott who said, Well, he says that everybody made it
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: to the ground, but did he ever say that you
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: always are going to fall down to the ground even
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: if you come loose? We're not going to come loose.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: It's going to be fine. It's going to be great. Stop. Okay, sorry.
• 21:02
  Speaker 12: Stop.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: Anyway, going over the edge on Friday. Please help if
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: you can. We'll go urm.org slash o-t-e. There you go.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: The woman accused of causing a fatal bus crash in
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: Chatsworth could go before a judge today. Her arraignment has
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: already been pushed back twice because of her medical condition.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Bailey Rios was taken to court Friday on a stretcher,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: but her appearance was delayed. Prosecutors say Rios was speeding
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: while under the influence of drugs when her SUV slammed
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: into the side of the Metro bus last Tuesday, killing
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: two people and injuring five. She's charged with murder, DUI
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: and reckless driving. Governor Newsom's giving Hollywood some big tax
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: breaks and maybe looking for a handout.
• 21:48
  Speaker 6: Governor Newsom signed a bill that continues California's film and
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: television tax credit program.
• 21:53
  Speaker 8: You know, we got to be more competitive.
• 21:55
  Speaker 13: If you want to do well in the future, you
• 21:56
  Speaker 13: got to invest in it.
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: The bill is aimed at creating a new tax credit
• 21:59
  Speaker 6: to support workers in all areas of post-production. Newsom signed
• 22:03
  Speaker 6: the bill just before he was seen at a bougie
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: restaurant in Malibu with some Hollywood A-listers, including Leonardo DiCaprio,
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: Robert De Niro, and Tobey Maguire. Jason Campadonia, KFI News.

  Speaker 1: Former Dodgers star Justin Turner has another championship under his belt.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: Turner helped the Toros de Tijuana win the 2026 Mexican
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: League Championship. It's Tijuana's third championship in franchise history. MLB.com
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: says Turner spent the season commuting to the ballpark from
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: his home in San Diego. Turner spent nine seasons with
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: the Dodgers from 2014 to 2022 and helped L.A. win
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: the 2020 championship. World Series. I sure miss Justin Turner
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: on the team. Gas prices have increased for the 34th
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: straight day in both L.A. and Orange County.
• 22:50
  Speaker 9: L.A.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: County's average price is up to $ 6. 22 a gallon. Orange
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: County's at $ 6.
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: 20.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: It's $ 6. 10 in the I.E. Prices are about $ 1. 50 a
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: gallon higher than at the start of the war against Iran.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: Authorities are searching for a man and a woman they
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: say tricked an 82-year-old woman out of $ 2, 500 in a
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: lottery ticket scam. The Pomona Police Department says the man
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: told the woman that he was an illegal immigrant and
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: had a winning lottery ticket worth $ 10, 000. He promised to
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: double her money if she helped him cash it. The
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: man and woman then drove the elderly woman to the
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: bank and abandoned her after she withdrew $ 2, 500 and gave
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: it to them. President Trump's planning to meet with New
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani while in New York for
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: the U.N. General Assembly this week. The mayor's office confirmed
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: the two are going to meet today and plan to
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: discuss issues affecting New Yorkers. This will be the third
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: public meeting between Trump and the Democratic mayor, who has
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: clashed with the president on a number of issues, including
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: the war with Iran. Your official home for Dodger baseball
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: is AM 570 LA Sports. Yesterday, Dodgers big win over
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: the Giants. That was a fun one. Tomorrow, your back-to-back

• 24:13
  Speaker 1: The Home Depot Pro. It's about time. Here's what's coming
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: out of the KFI 24-hour newsroom. Hollywood Burbank Airport's getting
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: ready to open its brand new terminal, and some people
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: are getting a chance to try it out a little early.
• 24:25
  Speaker 9: Officials put it to the test with a simulation that
• 24:27
  Speaker 9: invited guests to go through the motions of a real
• 24:29
  Speaker 9: trip to the airport, from parking their car to getting
• 24:32
  Speaker 9: to the gate. The reaction?
• 24:33
  Speaker 12: I think it's an amazing design, just with the big
• 24:35
  Speaker 12: swooping design as you enter into the airport.
• 24:37
  Speaker 9: Mike Christensen, the airport's public information officer, explained why the
• 24:40
  Speaker 9: new terminal is necessary.
• 24:42
  Speaker 11: Obviously, our current terminal, 96 years old, so needless to say,
• 24:46
  Speaker 11: we are not up to the FAA standards.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: Things have changed a lot.
• 24:50
  Speaker 9: And the verdict?
• 24:51
  Speaker 6: I'll be picking this over LAX.
• 24:53
  Speaker 9: The new terminal opens in October. Rich Cassone, KFI News.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: Police are looking for the driver of a car who
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: they say deliberately hit and killed a person in downtown LA.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: It happened around 4 a.m. yesterday near 6th and Main Streets.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: Investigators say the driver... It accelerated and hit the victim,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: pinning him between two cars. He later died. The driver's
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: car was found abandoned. So far, no arrests have been made.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: Conditions in Malibu are not very beach-friendly these days.
• 25:22
  Speaker 14: The city of Malibu says conditions are the worst at
• 25:25
  Speaker 14: Point Doom State Beach. Officials are warning people to be
• 25:27
  Speaker 14: careful when walking or swimming in the area, as severe
• 25:31
  Speaker 14: beach erosion has exposed piling, concrete and steel. There are
• 25:35
  Speaker 14: also steep sand cliffs, leaving little to no sand to
• 25:38
  Speaker 14: walk on, except when there's low tide. The road leading
• 25:41
  Speaker 14: to the parking lot at Point Doom State Beach is
• 25:43
  Speaker 14: closed due to erosion, but the beach is still open.

  Speaker 14: Aileen Gonzalez, KFI News.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Time to get in your business as we do each
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: weekday morning at this time. This morning, we're saying good
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: morning to Bloomberg's John Tucker. So, John.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Amy.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: Good morning. Stocks are looking like they're going to be
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: higher this morning. How come?
• 26:03
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 26:05
  Speaker 10: U.S.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: And Chinese officials offering some upbeat assessments of talks on, yes,
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: artificial intelligence, trade and investment. Looks like they're trying to
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: steady things ahead of this week's summit between President Trump
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: and Xi Jinping. That's going to take place in Washington.
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: And of course, the United Nations General Assembly, those meetings
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: going on just down the street here today. Some of
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: the meetings leading up to that, trying to smooth things over.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: I can tell you from personal experience, I hate this
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: because the traffic is awful. That's between the two of us.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: We won't tell anybody, John. OK, so this is kind
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: of big news for us here on the other coast
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: in California. Paramount says it will stay in California.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're pledging to stay in the state. This is
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: part of the settlement with state officials over this lawsuit
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: that challenges the Warner Brothers deal. This, according to our
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: sources this morning, Amy, the discussions also include a financial
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: penalty if the company fails to distribute 30 films a
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: year in theaters. That was a point of contention with
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: Rob Monta, the AG out there. Shares of both companies
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: rising pre-market. Now, Paramount would have to pay $ 30 million
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: for each film that falls short of that goal. It
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: could also be forced to sell its stake in Miramax.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: And of course, you know, along with California attorneys general
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: from all 12 states, all Democrats and the Writers Guild
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: have sued to block Paramount's $ 110 billion acquisition of Warner Brothers.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: Among other things, it's going to give the company an
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: undue share of the movie and cable TV industries and,
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: you know, cut jobs.
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: OK, so they haven't reached a settlement. They're talking about
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: a settlement.
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: The settlement talks between the parties, they've accelerated. Let's put
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: it that way in recent days. So at this point,
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: it looks kind of optimistic that they'll get somewhere.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: Okay. John Voight, pushing for the role of a lifetime.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: He wants to be the man who revived Hollywood.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Voight is an interesting story. He's behind a push
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: for a federal tax credit to bring film and TV
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: production back to the U.S. He's got a pretty good
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: shot at doing it. The Midnight Cowboy and Deliverance Star
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: got the president on board. So Trump's support has spurred
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: politicians on both sides of the aisle now to try
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: and pass a bill that would pretty much enshrine federal
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: tax credits for film and TV production before the end
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: of this year. Now, if passed, it could potentially reshape
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: the entertainment business, bringing production back to the U.S. after
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: years of flight to countries like the U.K., and Canada.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: And for the first time, figures in both Hollywood and
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: Washington say that they are optimistic about this thanks to
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: an unlikely bipartisan coalition of lobbyists, producers, moguls, and politicians.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: And a lot of it was initiated by John Voight.
• 28:57
  Speaker 12: Lovely.
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: Lovely. All this optimism on a Monday morning. I love it.
• 29:01
  Speaker 12: Okay.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: There's not a lot of things that cost a million
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: dollars per day, but.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: Now, to get a.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: Ship through the strait, it is? I don't know, maybe
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: this is too shocking. Yeah, it is now the going
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: rate in the shipping industry. A million, well, actually over
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: a million dollars a day. The cost of hiring a
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: large oil tanker from the Persian Gulf to Asia rising
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: to a record $ 1. 1 million a day. Now, I picked
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: that route because it's sort of the global benchmark. The
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: high tanker rates may hang around for a while. The
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: cost of shipping along this route has risen 12-fold. In
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: just a few months to this record high. You know
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: the reason. Million dollar day. price tag reflects the danger
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: of crossing the Strait of Hormuz and also the fact
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: that not a lot of ship owners are willing to
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: take that risk.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: All right. Bloomberg's John Tucker getting in your business, as
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: we do each weekday morning. Thanks so much. We'll talk
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: to you soon.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: Well, a pleasure. Thank you.
• 29:56
  Speaker 11: All right.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: Another fire has broken out in Santa Clarita's historic Old
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: Town Newhall neighborhood. The fire tore through a building on
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: Railroad Avenue near Market Street yesterday. Crews were able to
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: quickly knock down the flames, but the fire did substantial damage.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Less than a month ago, a three-alarm fire destroyed a restaurant,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: a theater, and several other businesses in Newhall. Three people
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: have been rescued from a 40-foot commercial fishing boat that
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: was taking on water near Los Angeles Harbor.
• 30:23
  Speaker 10: L.A.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: Fire crews responded to the sinking boat south of Terminal
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Island Saturday afternoon.
• 30:28
  Speaker 10: L.A.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: Fire boats then began dewatering operations, as they call it,
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: to try to keep the boat from sinking. Not clear
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: what caused the boat to Start taking on water in
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: the first place. No one was hurt. Resident Evil did
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: very good at the box office. It opened with $ 60
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: million in ticket sales. That's the best opening in the
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: franchise's 24-year history. Practical Magic 2 finished in second place
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: in its second weekend of release, earning $ 11 million. And Spider-Man,
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: brand new day, still in the top three. It finished third,
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: adding another $ 6. 5 million to its record-breaking total. Let's say
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: good morning now to ABC's Jim Ryan. So, Jim, as
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: people continue to be nervous about the economy, in spite
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: of the stock market doing well, people are turning to
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: a more safe investment and scammers have taken notice of that.
• 31:19
  Speaker 13: Well, they have. And you can bet that in the future,
• 31:22
  Speaker 13: as more people buy precious metals, gold specifically, you'll see
• 31:25
  Speaker 13: more of this kind of scam happening. But yes, earlier
• 31:29
  Speaker 13: this month, there were three people arrested in California, by
• 31:32
  Speaker 13: the way. who were accused of perpetrating scams against people
• 31:36
  Speaker 13: in the Houston area. These older victims, they're contacted by
• 31:41
  Speaker 13: somebody who's actually calling from overseas and saying, hey, your
• 31:45
  Speaker 13: bank account has been hacked. You need to convert your
• 31:49
  Speaker 13: funds into gold coins and we'll send a courier to
• 31:51
  Speaker 13: pick those up and we'll keep them safe for you.
• 31:53
  Speaker 13: And people are buying it. I mean, partly because the
• 31:56
  Speaker 13: technology makes it so easy to spoof phone numbers. Somebody
• 31:59
  Speaker 13: gets a call, they look at the ID, it says
• 32:01
  Speaker 13: the FBI. or it says your local bank branch. And
• 32:05
  Speaker 13: suddenly there's this built-in credibility and scammers are playing on that.
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: Scammers are getting so good. It's just, it's scary because
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: you just don't know, but there are certain things to know. Like,
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: you know, if it's that IRS scam, the IRS does
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: not call you. The IRS does not text you and
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: neither do the courts. There's that court scam saying, hey,
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: you didn't show up and now there's a warrant for
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: your arrest. But if you pay us in these gift cards,
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: We'll clear the warrant. But the sheriff's office won't ever
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: call you.
• 32:38
  Speaker 13: No, no. And the FBI is not going to call
• 32:40
  Speaker 13: you and tell you about a hacking at your bank.
• 32:41
  Speaker 13: Your own bank won't reach out that way either.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: So you're right.
• 32:45
  Speaker 13: It's the same song, second verse. They just find a
• 32:47
  Speaker 13: new way to victimize people, look at vulnerabilities, look at
• 32:51
  Speaker 13: what's happening out in the economy and say this is
• 32:55
  Speaker 13: the best way to do it. And again, very often, Amy,
• 32:57
  Speaker 13: these victims are older people who either aren't familiar with
• 33:01
  Speaker 13: their spoofing technology or intrinsically trust authority. They trust this.
• 33:08
  Speaker 13: This is an FBI agent talking to me. I better
• 33:10
  Speaker 13: pay attention or it's my bank. And that person knows
• 33:13
  Speaker 13: what he or she is talking about.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: So I should listen.
• 33:15
  Speaker 13: So, yeah, the best thing to do, I mean, especially
• 33:19
  Speaker 13: if you have an older person in your life, is
• 33:20
  Speaker 13: to let them know that this is going on and
• 33:23
  Speaker 13: that the technology could trick you.
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And it's it's it's sort of a delicate balance, too,
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: because like my mom's got her faculties. She's older, but
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: I worry about her falling for these kinds of things
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: just because like she's not super tech savvy. I've got
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: some friends who've got parents who are there. You know,
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: they're on their computers and they're they use their phones
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: and stuff all the time. She's not as tech savvy.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: So I get worried, too, that she might fall for
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: something like this.
• 33:52
  Speaker 10: Right.
• 33:53
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 33:54
  Speaker 13: And if they do, let them know that, you know,
• 33:56
  Speaker 13: don't be embarrassed. Let's talk about this. Let's go to
• 33:59
  Speaker 13: the police. We'll get this cleared up. So I think
• 34:02
  Speaker 13: that a lot of these crimes just go unreported because
• 34:05
  Speaker 13: people are embarrassed about it, having been victimized, or in
• 34:09
  Speaker 13: some cases, they don't even realize they were victimized.
• 34:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: Okay. So have that talk with your parents. And probably,
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, the kids are probably more tech savvy, but
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: it wouldn't hurt just to have a refresher course with
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: the kids too.
• 34:20
  Speaker 8: Well, of course.
• 34:21
  Speaker 9: Of course.
• 34:22
  Speaker 8: Right.
• 34:23
  Speaker 13: A lot of scams specifically target people who are younger
• 34:26
  Speaker 13: because as they're more comfortable with technology, they may be
• 34:29
  Speaker 13: more vulnerable to being ripped off.
• 34:32
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: Jim Ryan, thank you for telling us about the latest scam.
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: You have so many of them that you share with us.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: All right. Have a good day.
• 34:39
  Speaker 13: The criminals just keep coming out of the woodwork.
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: I know. So that's why we'll just keep telling you
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: about them. We appreciate your input. Thanks, Jim.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: Thanks, Amy.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: Let's get back to some of the stories coming out
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: of the KFI 24-hour newsroom. The Jewish High Holiday Incident.
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: of Yom Kippur is underway.
• 34:54
  Speaker 7: It ends the 10-day period of introspection among followers of Judaism,
• 34:58
  Speaker 7: which began with the two-day Rosh Hashanah celebration of the
• 35:01
  Speaker 7: Jewish New Year. The Yom Kippur services are made more
• 35:04
  Speaker 7: solemn by a portion set aside for a remembrance of
• 35:06
  Speaker 7: loved ones lost. As a standard, law enforcement organizations are
• 35:10
  Speaker 7: conducting increased patrols around Jewish institutions during Yom Kippur services.
• 35:15
  Speaker 7: Mark Mayfield, KFI News.
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: A U.S.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: Immigration and customs enforcement officer has shot a man in Austin, Texas.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: The police chief says the man is in serious but
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: stable condition after the shooting yesterday afternoon. An immigration attorney
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: identified the guy as 28-year-old or as a 28-year-old from Venezuela.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: His name is Wilbur Perez. The Department of Homeland Security
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: says he is in custody and has a removal order.
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: Republicans are framing the November midterms as a choice over immigration,
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: crime and the direction of the country. House Majority Leader
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: Steve Scalise says Republicans are going to argue that President
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: Trump has secured the border and that Democrats would reverse
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: those policies. The Louisiana Republican says this election comes down
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: to common sense versus crazy.
• 36:03
  Speaker 11: The Democrats want to take us to a socialist place
• 36:06
  Speaker 11: where they're advocating for open borders again. Defund the police
• 36:10
  Speaker 11: is not just the opening bid. They want to go
• 36:13
  Speaker 11: to defunding prisons now. So there is a sharp contrast
• 36:17
  Speaker 11: in this election.
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: Scalise says Republicans will also campaign on affordability. He says
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: The party is working to bring down food and energy
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: costs and predicts the gas prices will fall once the
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: conflict with Iran is resolved. More Democrats say they plan
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: to vote in person this November.
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: An NBC News poll of registered Democratic voters found 23%
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: plan to vote by mail compared to 34% at this
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: time in 2024. Some 26% plan to vote in person
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: at an early voting site.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: That's up 6%.
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: While another 36% say they plan to vote in person
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: on Election Day. This comes as the Supreme Court has
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: blocked President Trump's latest efforts to restrict mail-in voting. Tammy Trujillo,
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: KFI News.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: Converse has pulled and apologized for one of its ads.
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: The ad featuring popular K-pop star Karina from the group
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: aespa has sparked accusation of racist imagery. People reports Karina
• 37:11
  Speaker 5: appeared in a campaign holding a pair of black high-top
• 37:14
  Speaker 5: sneakers beneath a star-shaped speaker. The ad quickly went viral
• 37:18
  Speaker 5: with some social media users saying the lighting resembled a
• 37:22
  Speaker 5: KKK hood, while the way the shoes were positioned evoked
• 37:26
  Speaker 5: lynching imagery. Converse has since apologized for the campaign after
• 37:30
  Speaker 5: getting backlash online.
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: Heather Brooker, KFI News. The long-awaited Lucas Museum of Narrative
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: Art in Exposition Park is ready to open its doors.

• 37:44
  Speaker 1: and his wife, Melody Hobson, held a special opening night
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: celebration over the weekend. The museum is dedicated to the
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: art of visual storytelling, with works ranging from paintings and

  Speaker 4: L.A.
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: Mayor Bass was on hand to celebrate the grand opening.
• 38:01
  Speaker 6: It's all about storytelling.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: That's what narrative art is.
• 38:04
  Speaker 6: And that's what we are, the storytelling capital.
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: Of the world. The Lucas Museum opens to the public tomorrow.
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: I don't know about you, I can't wait to go.
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: Heather Brooker got to go in early and get a
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: little sneak peek of it. Looks pretty cool. But don't
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: go if you think it's just a Star Wars museum,
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: because it's not. There's a whole lot more. This is
