  Speaker 1: Baja and possibly Southern California. ABC's Alex Stone says we

  Speaker 1: should feel the remnants of the storm this weekend.

  Speaker 5: It could bring rain, maybe heavy at times, to areas
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: as it moves inland over Las Vegas and Arizona and
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: high tide along the coast. But it will not be
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: a hurricane and likely not even a tropical storm.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: The storm comes as we finally get some relief from
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: this October heat wave. Forecasters say temperatures will continue falling
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: today and tomorrow. as an approaching low-pressure system brings increasing

• 4:41
  Speaker 6: part of a broader federal push against open-air drug markets.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: We've seen us do this work already on whether it's
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: fraud regarding homelessness down in Skid Row. We've been after that.
• 4:50

  Speaker 1: Three firefighters have been hurt fighting a fire in Eagle Rock.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: All three were taken to the hospital yesterday. The fire
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: started just before 3 p.m. near Occidental College. Crews found
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: flames in the attic of the house and fought the
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: fire from inside. It was put out in just a
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: few minutes. The firefighters' conditions and the reasons for them
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: going to the hospital were not immediately known. Love that song.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Taylor Swift is going to be performing at the 6th

• 5:50
  Speaker 1: the museum with proceeds supporting exhibitions, Educational opportunities, public film screenings,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: and programs intended to make cinema accessible to visitors of
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: all ages. Let's say good morning to ABC's Jordana Miller
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: in Jerusalem. So, Jordana, President Trump told reporters yesterday that
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: there won't be any military action against Iran until at
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: least after the midterm elections. But things are not all
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: quiet in the Middle East. Saudi Arabia has come under attack.
• 6:19
  Speaker 7: That's right. And I think, first, You know, we have
• 6:22
  Speaker 7: to take everything the president says about an attack or
• 6:26
  Speaker 7: not an attack on Iran with a grain of salt,
• 6:29
  Speaker 7: because we've seen over the last three years that the
• 6:33
  Speaker 7: president can say one thing and there's you know, it
• 6:36
  Speaker 7: can be followed by U.S. strikes in Iran. So I think,
• 6:41
  Speaker 7: you know, we've been misled before and the president has
• 6:48
  Speaker 7: been close.
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: To attacks, called them off.
• 6:50
  Speaker 7: So I think we should be very cautious about anything
• 6:54
  Speaker 7: the president says. There's an ongoing standoff with Iran over
• 6:58
  Speaker 7: the Strait of Hormuz. And by the way, it is
• 7:02
  Speaker 7: related to those attacks in Saudi Arabia. They were carried
• 7:06
  Speaker 7: out by the Houthis, which are backed by Iran, funded
• 7:09
  Speaker 7: by Iran. And Iran is using their proxy, the Houthis,
• 7:13
  Speaker 7: their rebel group that operates out of Yemen. They're using
• 7:18
  Speaker 7: the Houthis to continue to disrupt oil markets. And they're
• 7:24
  Speaker 7: using the Houthis to continue to attack American allies in
• 7:27
  Speaker 7: the Gulf. Right now, it's the Saudis. And it's been
• 7:29
  Speaker 7: going on for several weeks. The Houthis carried out what
• 7:34
  Speaker 7: we will say in quotation marks was a very effective
• 7:38
  Speaker 7: strike on the capital, on Riyadh, and on the international
• 7:41
  Speaker 7: airport there. The Saudis say at least three were killed,
• 7:46
  Speaker 7: several others injured. Among the dead is a Saudi pilot.
• 7:50
  Speaker 7: There was also a aircraft damage and dozens of flights
• 7:55
  Speaker 7: in and out of Riyadh were canceled on Thursday. And
• 8:00
  Speaker 7: this comes as the Saudis over the last week or
• 8:03
  Speaker 7: so have intensified their own strikes against the Houthis in
• 8:08
  Speaker 7: and around the Bab al-Mandab Street and the coast of Yemen,
• 8:12
  Speaker 7: the Red Coast, the Red Sea Coast, because we've seen
• 8:17
  Speaker 7: over the last several weeks The Houthis are trying to
• 8:20
  Speaker 7: take exclusive control of the Bab al-Mandab Strait. That's that
• 8:25
  Speaker 7: critical narrow waterway in the region, the other one, aside
• 8:29
  Speaker 7: from the Strait of Hormuz, that is so important for
• 8:32
  Speaker 7: global oil supplies. About 10% goes through that. that waterway.
• 8:36
  Speaker 7: And it's been closed for Saudi vessels because the Houthis
• 8:40
  Speaker 7: control the area around it. The Saudis started striking the
• 8:44
  Speaker 7: Houthis several days ago. The Houthis were fighting the Saudis.
• 8:48
  Speaker 7: And the Saudis finally are getting a little bit of
• 8:50
  Speaker 7: help from the British and from the United States in
• 8:54
  Speaker 7: their fight against the Houthis. And all of this left
• 8:59
  Speaker 7: oil prices uh, spiking higher again. Brent crude, uh, went
• 9:04
  Speaker 7: up again after these strikes on Thursday. Um, maybe they'll
• 9:08
  Speaker 7: come down a little bit, but this is the way
• 9:11
  Speaker 7: that Iran continues to keep its low, a low fire,
• 9:15
  Speaker 7: a low level of pressure on the United States and
• 9:19
  Speaker 7: really on global oil markets by, uh, again, turning on
• 9:23
  Speaker 7: its proxy, the Houthis who are fighting the Saudis.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: All right. Well, we will continue to watch it and, uh, Again,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: hope for better days. Jordana Miller in Jerusalem, thank you
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: so much for the update. Appreciate it.
• 9:34
  Speaker 7: Talk soon.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: All right, let's get back to some of the stories
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: coming out of the KFI 24-hour newsroom. Hurricane Isaias is
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: now a Category 2 storm, packing winds of 100 miles
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: per hour. ABC's Stephanie Ramos says it's headed for the U.S.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: Gulf states with landfall expected sometime today or tomorrow.
• 9:52
  Speaker 6: The storm forcing major oil companies to evacuate rigs.
• 9:56
  Speaker 8: Producers halting nearly two-thirds of all oil production in the Gulf.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: And more than half of gas production. Governors have declared
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: states of emergency and some have even ordered evacuations. New
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani has called for ICE to
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: leave his city after a man was shot during what
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: the Department of Homeland Security called a targeted operation.
• 10:16
  Speaker 9: I have been on the phone with President Trump and
• 10:18
  Speaker 9: Secretary Mullen. negotiating the release of the man ICE agents shot.
• 10:24
  Speaker 9: Those negotiations were unsuccessful.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Mamdani says the man's five-year-old son was in the backseat
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: of the car when the shooting happened. Police Commissioner Jessica
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Tisch says city cameras captured the man backing into a
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: parking spot yesterday when agents in plain clothes approached with
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: guns drawn. War Secretary Pete Hegseth says soldiers at Fort
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Hood will carry out the execution... of base shooter Nidal
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Hassan by firing squad, and it's going to be public.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: ABC's Trevor Ault says a Pentagon official confirms the execution
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: later this year will be live streamed.
• 10:58
  Speaker 10: If this execution takes place in December, and Hegseth says
• 11:01
  Speaker 10: it will, it would be the first public execution in
• 11:04
  Speaker 10: the U.S.
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: In some 90 years.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Hassan was sentenced to death for the 2009 mass shooting
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: at Fort Hood in Texas, in which 13 people were killed,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: 32 others were hurt. If you're in the market to
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: buy a home, mortgage rates could throw a bit of
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: a monkey wrench into those plans. ABC's Michelle Franzen says
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: mortgage rates are up for the seventh week in a row.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: The average 30-year fixed rate for a home loan now
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: stands at 7.4%, up from 7.28% last week, according to
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: mortgage buyer Freddie Mac. That's the highest level in almost
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: three years. And speaking of high costs, the cost of
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: drugs from Canada is set to soar for millions of Americans.
• 11:44
  Speaker 8: Americans who buy cheap drugs from Canada could soon lose
• 11:47
  Speaker 8: access due to a new customs rule. It suspends an
• 11:50
  Speaker 8: international trade rule exemption, making it harder for low-value shipments,
• 11:54
  Speaker 8: including medications, to enter the U.S. without additional data and
• 11:57
  Speaker 8: a bond guarantee. President Trump's administration has prioritized lowering drug prices,
• 12:02
  Speaker 8: but advocates say the president's policies don't benefit everyone. Lawmakers
• 12:06
  Speaker 8: are urging the Trump administration to reconsider the rule to
• 12:09
  Speaker 8: protect access to affordable care. The rule becomes effective October 22nd.
• 12:14
  Speaker 8: Debra Mark, KFI News.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: A class action lawsuit claims McDonald's is using AI to
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: help set menu prices.
• 12:25
  Speaker 11: The lawsuit accuses the fast food giant with violating antitrust
• 12:28
  Speaker 11: laws by sharing non-public sales info with franchisees. That info
• 12:31
  Speaker 11: is used to set prices that would otherwise be set
• 12:33
  Speaker 11: by the independent stores. The complaint says McDonald's pressures stores
• 12:37
  Speaker 11: to use the system and tracks when restaurants don't follow
• 12:40
  Speaker 11: its recommendations. It also says the system looks at how
• 12:42
  Speaker 11: much customers are willing to pay and how sensitive they
• 12:45
  Speaker 11: are to price changes. Mickey D says AI does not
• 12:48
  Speaker 11: set menu prices and says the claims are speculative and uninformed.
• 12:52
  Speaker 11: Michael Crozier, KFI News.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: A pair of Renoir paintings stolen from a small museum
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: on the French Riviera have been found. Authorities say six
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: people have been arrested. The paintings were stolen last month.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: The thieves actually took four paintings from the Renoir museum,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: but they dropped two as they took off. I just
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: don't think that's very smart. Like, who are you going
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: to sell them to?
• 13:16
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: I never got that.
• 13:17
  Speaker 9: Oh, well.
• 13:18
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: Looks like they got them. That's good news. We were
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: talking about Hurricane Isaias and Richard's out on a walk.
• 13:26
  Speaker 12: It's Hurricane Isaias.
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: Hurricane Isaias.
• 13:29
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: Well, thank you, Richard. So then we Went to the
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: professionals and there's the pronouncer on the Google.
• 13:36
  Speaker 13: Isaias.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: And then there's another guy.
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: Isaias.
• 13:39
  Speaker 13: So if you didn't know how to pronounce it, this
• 13:41
  Speaker 13: was mispronounced so much in 2020 that I just wanted
• 13:45
  Speaker 13: to let everyone know, just as it sounds out because
• 13:47
  Speaker 13: it's in Spanish, Isaias.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: Isaias.
• 13:50
  Speaker 13: Is going to be one that we're going to have
• 13:51
  Speaker 13: to say a lot of this next week.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: So say it with me.
• 13:54
  Speaker 13: Isaias.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: Isaias.
• 13:55
  Speaker 12: Isaias.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: There you go. Here's what we're following in the KFI
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: 24-hour newsroom. An environmental advocacy group has sued the EPA,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: claiming it is withholding records over its response to the
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: fire in June at the Lineage Logistics Cold Storage Warehouse
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: in Boyle Heights. They're seeking data related to air pollution
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: and official communications from L.A. city and county officials on
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: how bad possible chemical contamination was. Caltrans has called for
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: drivers to pay closer attention in work zones and have
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: announced additional safety measures following six construction workers being hit
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: and killed in California since August 10th. Three of those
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: workers were killed in a single crash September 25th in
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Riverside County. Caltrans is urging drivers to slow down, move over,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: and avoid distractions while driving. Four astronauts have splashed down
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: in the Pacific Ocean after nearly eight months on the
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: International Space Station. Crew 12 spent 235 days aboard the
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: orbiting laboratory conducting research involving stem cells, crystal growth, and
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: the effects of weightlessness on bone density. Nice to have
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: them back here on Earth. Let's say good morning to
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: the host of Home on KFI, the house whisperer, Dean Sharp.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Good morning, Dean.
• 15:09
  Speaker 12: Hey, Amy.
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: How you doing?
• 15:10
  Speaker 7: Doing good.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: So we're going to talk about keeping you safe inside
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: your home because we're getting so many reports. We get
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: these weird break-ins in the middle of the night in
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: these mansions. We get Home invasions when obviously people are
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: still at home. In Rancho Cucamonga, they're talking about neighborhoods
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: being cased with cameras hidden in bushes. And keeping your
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: home safe is very important. So let's talk about that.
• 15:34
  Speaker 14: It is.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: And that's what we're going to be talking about on Sunday.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: The big show on Sunday, Home Security 2026. There are
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: some things that are just important to realize that burglars,
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: you know, they're not picking locks. They're trying handles. And
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: I don't mean that there aren't some professional, I mean,
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: real professional burglars out there. But by and large, most
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: home robberies are opportunistic, meaning that somebody sees an unlocked
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: door or an unlatched window or Or they notice that
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: there's a car in the driveway with the old style
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: garage door remote clipped on the visor. Not a great
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: idea because everybody knows that's a key to the house
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: right there. And so if there's an easy way in,
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: then people are taking it. And it's important to know
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: that and to guard against those things. Detection is one thing.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: That's another issue that a lot of people have. They've
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: spent a lot of money on cameras and smart home devices.
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: I'm all for that. I love that idea. But you
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: got to understand that detection is just that. You know,
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: we like to say that cameras and alarms are smoke detectors.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: They are not fire sprinklers. And by that, I mean
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: a smoke detector will tell you something's on fire, but
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: it won't put it out. Okay. Okay. It's not a
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: fire sprinkler. And so when we say, oh, okay. my
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: home is secure now because I've got cameras and alarms
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: in place. Well, it's not. What you have in place
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: now is a means of monitoring and alerting you when
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: somebody breaks in.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: That reminds me of that guy, that couple, they were
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: on a plane and there was a guy breaking into
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: their house at the time and they were watching the
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: whole thing on ring camera. And he took off his
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: shirt and he was eating the food. And that was
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: the one where the dog came up to him and
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: was not a very good guard dog.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: Exactly.
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, but so, yeah, you're, you're watching it, but
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: what do you do about it?
• 17:35
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, you know, you call the police, you call 911,
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: you say, Hey, somebody's in my house. And, and, but
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: most burglaries take place very quickly because most people realize
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: that there's a good chance that there's a camera or
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: some monitoring system. So they're in, they're out and, you know,
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: and now you're missing whatever it is that they took.
• 17:54
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 17:55
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: So let's talk about, uh, security screens. Cause that's, you know,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: a screen doesn't seem like much security cause I can
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: take a knife and cut right through it.
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: Well, uh, security screens are not your, uh, ordinary screen.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: They are in fact made out of, uh, uh, high
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: grade Marine mesh and they look, here's the thing they look,
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: I like to call the security screens, uh, Kind of
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: superheroes walking around in their Clark Kent outfit during the day.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: You might make the mistake of picking on this guy
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: because he seems nerdy and normal. And the next thing
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: you know, you realize, oh my gosh, I just threw
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: a punch at Superman. And that's kind of what a
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: security screen is. Our clients ask us all the time, how–
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: Can we really, really protect the home? And I'm like,
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: security screens are one of those things because they're essentially invisible.
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: They look like they're screens. OK, but they cannot be
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: pried open. They cannot be cut. You know, I've been
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: invited so many times now to bash against a security
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: screen with a baseball bat. With an axe. I actually
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: successfully got the blade of an axe through a security
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: screen once. And all that happened was the axe got
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: stuck in the security screen and nothing else happened.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: And you can't see them.
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: You can't see them because they just look like screens.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: That's very cool.
• 19:22
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: And so that's actually, you know, we'll be talking about
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: that on Sunday. We've actually got our one of our sponsors,
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: California Security Screens in California. studio with me on Sunday
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: for that portion of the security show. Security screens are
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: actual security. It's not monitoring. It's not notification. It's actually
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: the ability to keep somebody out.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's very cool. OK, so the other thing that
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: we're going to be talking about this weekend, you're going
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: to be talking about this weekend is how burglars aren't
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: just well, some of them are opportunistic and waiting to
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: see an open door, but other ones are really watching
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: before they move in.
• 19:59
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: And the ones that watch are specifically looking for patterns
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: and most likely they key in on the idea, like
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: you were saying, there are cameras in bushes now, they
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: key in on the idea of like, when are you away?
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: And if you go away on vacation, those kinds of things.
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: And this is where a smart house with smart lighting
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: control can really be an underused deterrent. And what I
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: mean by that is, If you've got some smart lights
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: in the house and those smart lights, when you go
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: away on a trip, it's wise to set them on
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: a random pattern of coming on and off during the house.
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: Because the fact of the matter is they're like, oh, gee,
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: somebody's in the kitchen. The kitchen light just went on
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: for five minutes and then it went off. The family
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: room light went on for a couple of minutes and
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: then it went off. Now the bedroom light is somebody
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: is home, right? And no burglar is looking to confront
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: people when they come into your home. That's the number
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: one biggest rule. So the fact that you've got a
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: random pattern of lights moving in your house when you're
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: not there always raises the question, well, I'm pretty sure
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: somebody's there. And that means it's not happening.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: Great advice, Dean Sharp. And for more great advice about
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: how to keep your home safe, some tricks and tactics.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: I'm going to listen because I... I did not know
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: about security screens. I'm intrigued. And so you could listen
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: this weekend with Home on KFI. Our House Whisperer, Dean Sharp,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: is the host. It's Saturdays from 6 to 8 a.m.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: and then Sunday from 9 to noon. You can also

  Speaker 10: Thanks, Amy.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: The candidates for mayor of L.A. have used a forum
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: to talk about their plans to deal with immigration enforcement.
• 21:52
  Speaker 14: Last night's event was broadcast by Univision 34 and featured
• 21:56
  Speaker 14: Mayor Karen Bass and Councilwoman Nitya Raman. Bass highlighted how
• 22:00
  Speaker 14: she restricted the use of city resources during immigration raids.
• 22:03
  Speaker 14: She also expanded coordination of legal services to support families
• 22:07
  Speaker 14: facing detention or deportation. Raman criticized Bass for how the
• 22:11
  Speaker 14: mayor handled the June 2025 immigration protests. She said it
• 22:14
  Speaker 14: seemed that the Los Angeles Police Department officers were protecting
• 22:17
  Speaker 14: federal agents versus helping L.A.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: Residents. Mark Mayfield, KFI News.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: A man wanted in Iowa for a violent kidnapping in
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: 2012 has been arrested in San Diego, where he was
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: working as a chef under a fake name. Authorities say
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Brian Williams and others kidnapped a woman, assaulted her, and
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: shot her before leaving her in a field. Williams was
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: charged a year later with being a fugitive. He was
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: found working as a chef in San Diego's Mission Beach neighborhood.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: He'd even appeared in local news publications and TV reports
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: talking about food. The High Speed Rail Authority's meeting to
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: talk about the alleged misuse of taxpayer money on consultants.
• 22:54
  Speaker 12: State Senator Tony Strickland from Huntington Beach.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Every one of them should be fired.
• 22:58
  Speaker 12: More than half a million bucks was spent on those
• 23:00
  Speaker 12: consultants for things like.
• 23:01
  Speaker 7: First.
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: Class travel, they've used it for nightclubs, cigar lounges.
• 23:06
  Speaker 12: Strickland says he's doubtful anything will be done.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: I've requested Attorney General Rob Bonta investigate. My guess is
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: these are friends of his who are these consultants, so
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: my guess is he's not going.
• 23:16
  Speaker 7: To go after.
• 23:17
  Speaker 12: The price of the rail has ballooned from roughly $ 30
• 23:19
  Speaker 12: billion to now over $ 200 billion to finish. Jason Campadonia,
• 23:24
  Speaker 12: KFI News.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: And the UCLA Bruins take their perfect 4-0 record to
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: the Northwest this weekend. The 21st-ranked Bruins face No. 13
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: Oregon Ducks in Eugene tomorrow at 1230. Then you'll be
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: over that one.
• 23:41
  Speaker 7: I will.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: The 19th ranked USC Trojans are at Penn State facing
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: off against the Nittany Lions. I just like saying Nittany Lions.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: Kickoff is at 430. There's a storm headed toward Alabama, Florida, Panhandle.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: There's a little bit of a debate over the name
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: because it's an unusual name. It's Isaias. And we had
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: a wake up call listener say, no, it's Isaias. And
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: then another guy said, no, it's Isaias. And then Florida
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: Governor Ron DeSantis, who's having to deal with this hurricane
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: that's on its way to his state, is having a
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: little issue with it, too.
• 24:17
  Speaker 10: I don't know how to pronounce this because it's not normal. So,
• 24:21
  Speaker 10: you know, I'm calling it Isaiah. You guys can call
• 24:23
  Speaker 10: it what you want. I know that's not how you
• 24:25
  Speaker 10: pronounce this. It's something else. But it's weird, and I'm
• 24:28
  Speaker 10: just going to keep butchering it for the next 72 hours,
• 24:31
  Speaker 10: and I'd rather just be that. So I'm calling it Isaiah.
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: Say it with me.
• 24:35
  Speaker 13: Isaias.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: There you go.
• 24:36
  Speaker 15: Isaias.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: Here's what we're following in the KFI 24-hour newsroom. A
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: busted water main in Porter Ranch has flooded streets and
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: left a large hole in the street. It was reported
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: just after 2 yesterday afternoon in the area of Van
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: Alden Avenue and Kenya Street. The water shot up high
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: as the treetop's. or as high as the treetops, as
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: drivers nearby pulled over to watch. LADWP crews shut the
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: water off by about 2.45. Nobody was hurt. A study
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: by UCLA and UC Berkeley shows nearly 15,000 people arrested
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Southern California in
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: 2025 and 26 have been deported. In June and July
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: of last year, researchers said 75% of those arrested were deported.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: The findings also show 33% of the arrests in the
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: region happened in the city of L.A. Dinner time should
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: not be screen time. That's the advice of a health expert.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: The Cleveland Clinic's Margarita Shook says eating while distracted does
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: not help kids learn hunger cues because they're distracted and
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: focused on the tablet instead of their food. Here's more
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: coming out of the KFI 24-hour newsroom. The USS Abraham
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: Lincoln has returned home to San Diego after a record-setting
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: uninterrupted time at sea. The crew was greeted yesterday by
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: overjoyed family members.
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: Welcome home!
• 25:57
  Speaker 10: We're praying for you guys' return.
• 25:59
  Speaker 6: We're so excited!
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Can't wait to hug you!
• 26:02
  Speaker 6: Praise God!
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: Some of the arriving sailors met their babies for the
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: first time. The aircraft carrier left port in November and
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: the deployment was extended when the war in Iran started.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: That extra time drew the nation's attention following reports of
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: crew stress and poor mental health as well as supply shortages.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: The Navy says it has made changes. A fire in L.A.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: 's Chinatown has destroyed a large commercial building. It started
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: around 7 last night on Main Street, took firefighters almost
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: two hours to put it out. It's not clear how
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: the fire started. Arson investigators were called to the scene.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: A brush fire near the 5 freeway south of Gorman
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: has been stopped from spreading. It burned 150 acres yesterday.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: It's 21% surrounded this morning. Evacuation orders were decreased last
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: night to only include the fire footprint and the area
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: immediately around it. And health officials are recommending you get
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: your flu shot sooner rather than later. California is seeing
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: an early increase in flu cases. Flu season usually starts
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: in November and then peaks between January and March. Alaska, Washington,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: and Hawaii have also seen an early spike in flu cases.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: Most of the cases recorded are the H1N1 strain, which
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: health officials say the flu shot does protect against. So
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: far this season, there have been 34 flu-related deaths in California.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: Time to get in your business as we do each
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: weekday morning. Let's say good morning to Bloomberg's Erica Herskovitz.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Good morning, Erica.
• 27:27
  Speaker 7: Good morning, Amy.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: Okay, so let's talk OpenAI because it is making a
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: lot of money.
• 27:35
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 27:36
  Speaker 15: OpenAI projecting annualized revenue of $ 70 billion or more by
• 27:40
  Speaker 15: the end of the year, up from about $ 50 billion
• 27:43
  Speaker 15: at the end of September. The chat GPT maker shared
• 27:46
  Speaker 15: the figures with investors as it looks to raise at
• 27:48
  Speaker 15: least $ 30 billion to fuel its artificial intelligence ambitions. So
• 27:51
  Speaker 15: the projection is higher than estimates cited in a recent
• 27:54
  Speaker 15: Financial Times report, helping ease concerns about the company's growth
• 27:58
  Speaker 15: and giving tech stocks a little bit of a boost
• 27:59
  Speaker 15: this morning.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: Taylor Farms is going to suspend iceberg lettuce shipments.
• 28:06
  Speaker 15: Yes, from Central Mexico. For much of next summer, the
• 28:09
  Speaker 15: produce giant was linked to that recent cyclospora outbreak that
• 28:13
  Speaker 15: sickened more than 12,000 people and killed two. Taylor Farms
• 28:17
  Speaker 15: grows and processes a large portion of the produce sold
• 28:20
  Speaker 15: in the country, including 40% of bagged or packaged salads.
• 28:24
  Speaker 15: I love packaged salads because it's so easy.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: I know, right?
• 28:27
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I love it.
• 28:29
  Speaker 15: The supplier says it's also ramping up water and crop
• 28:32
  Speaker 15: testing and investing in new technology to better detect contamination.
• 28:35
  Speaker 4: Okay, fantastic.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: Um, let's see. Amazon is giving Apple a run for
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: its money.
• 28:43
  Speaker 15: Yeah, with a tablet. So the gadget, the Amazon gadget,
• 28:47
  Speaker 15: is going to run Google Apps and come in three sizes,
• 28:49
  Speaker 15: priced between $ 230.
• 28:50
  Speaker 7: And $ 500.
• 28:50
  Speaker 15: The new devices are going to be available next Wednesday.
• 28:55
  Speaker 15: Apple plans to overhaul its tablet lineup in 2027 after
• 28:58
  Speaker 15: launching a new iPad mini later this month. The tablet
• 29:00
  Speaker 15: market has been in a bit of a slump, though,
• 29:03
  Speaker 15: and it's made it worse by a persistent memory chip shortage.
• 29:06
  Speaker 15: Worldwide tablet shipments fell 12.3% in the second quarter from
• 29:09
  Speaker 15: a year earlier, according to market researcher IDC.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not a tablet person. I do stuff on
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: my phone. My best friend is all about the tablet,
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: and I'm all about the phone. So I guess that's
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: just personal preference. Denny's latest drop is a real drip.
• 29:24
  Speaker 15: Yeah, the diner decided to bring back its syrup-infused sneakers
• 29:30
  Speaker 15: after the first edition sold out in about a minute.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: Syrup infused sneakers.
• 29:37
  Speaker 15: Yes, they're $ 195. They're Sticky Kicks. They're called the Sticky
• 29:42
  Speaker 15: Kick 2.0, launched overnight. With real Denny's syrup inside the shoes,
• 29:47
  Speaker 15: blueberry-colored laces, a syrup-inspired sole. The limited edition sneakers did
• 29:52
  Speaker 15: not last.
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: Long, though.
• 29:53
  Speaker 15: They are already sold out, Amy, so you cannot get
• 29:55
  Speaker 15: a pair if you even want to.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: How do you get syrup in a shoe? Oh, you
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: put it in the lining. I've got a picture of
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: it now. A little bit.
• 30:05
  Speaker 7: And then you smell like syrup all day.
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: No, thank you.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: Well, except if they put it in the shoe and
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: they've got it so it doesn't leak out all over
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: the place, then it wouldn't smell, would it?
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, it would totally smell, I think.
• 30:20
  Speaker 15: I mean, I would imagine that that would be the
• 30:21
  Speaker 15: point of having, you know, like scratch and sniff stickers.
• 30:24
  Speaker 15: I'm dating us. But, you know, sort of like that,
• 30:27
  Speaker 15: where your sneakers smell like syrup, which for some people
• 30:30
  Speaker 15: might be a positive.
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I think if you haven't already, go Google them.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: Search it up because they're really cute. Too bad you
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: can't get them. Another promotional thing.
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: Erica Herskovits with Bloomberg. Thanks so much for getting in
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: your business. Let's do it again Monday, shall we?
• 30:44

• 32:13
  Speaker 1: Good morning, Sue. Good morning. So, Amazon knows you, or
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: at least it thinks it does, but it doesn't just
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: know what you buy. It knows you. What is going on?
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: Well, a lot of companies these days really have a
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: lot of data that they can collect about us. And
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: I think people, you know, you know it as a
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: kind of concept, but I think it really came home
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: to people this week because a couple of posts went
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: viral about this Amazon About You feature.
• 32:44
  Speaker 12: And the first.
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: Post I saw that seemed to really go big was
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: a woman who discovered that Amazon categorizes her as having
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: flat buttocks. And then people chimed in with other things.
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: So what is the About You feature? So the About
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: You feature, if you have an Amazon account, you go on,
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: you click on either your account or your profile, that tab.
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: If you want, we can do it in real time.
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: And then it'll show your shopping preferences, I guess. Yeah. Yeah.
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: Are you on it?
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I just opened it up. About You.
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: We use these details. Okay, and then if you scroll
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: all the way down about you, yeah, you can see
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: how they describe you.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't know if that's– it says I likely
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: read fiction regularly. I don't know about regularly. I like
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: World Harbors for marinades. Mine is not very interesting. I
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: like Paramount Plus streaming, yes. Oh, it knows I have–
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: it says I have a cat. It says I have
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: a pool. I wish I had a pool. Likely has
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: a pool. So they can figure this out. How do
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: they figure this out?
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Um, it's your brow.
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: It's not just what you buy. It's your browsing history. Um,
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: they can, um, it's like, if you have an Alexa, um,
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: conversations that you have at home, a ring camera, same thing,
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: like kind of like what, you know, what your setup
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: looks like, who's coming, who's going. Um, and then like, um,
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: and not just a, you know, what you click on,
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: you might not buy it, things that, you know, They
• 34:24
  Speaker 4: have a lot of information about you, the credit cards
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: you score, probably your credit rating, a lot of demographic
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: information about, you know, where they deliver the packages, like
• 34:33
  Speaker 4: what kind of house or apartment you might live in,
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: you know, like kind of, you know, how many people
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: might be in your household depending on what you buy.
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: If you've ever had a wedding registry or a child
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: gift registry or something like that on there, they would know.
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: The books you read or order, what you highlight on
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: a Kindle, you know, maybe... You know, you know, if
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: you're reading the Bible, the Koran or something like that,
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: they might know your religion, who you ship things to.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: Like and their demographic information, because they would know their address.
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: And then, of course, tracking across devices. They know what
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: kind of device you have, but also tracking across websites
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: and other apps.
• 35:08
  Speaker 12: OK, so. Yeah.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: So I have a question. So it's also following not

  Speaker 1: only what you do on Amazon, but it's digging into
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: other stuff you do, too.
• 35:17
  Speaker 9: Correct.
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: Like in terms of there are a lot of like
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: third party apps that are kind of like embedded into
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: the Amazon app or website. And then like they will
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: be there. They'll be tracking across, you know, like, you know,
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: when you're on a website and like like cookies pop
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: up and they'll say like reject or accept or whatever.
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: You know, a lot of people just kind of breeze
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: past that. And then some people have a lot of
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: information connected, like like, you know, connected across apps, you know, and.
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: and like uh it will be um like uh like
