Speaker 1: You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
0:04
Speaker 1: six forty. You are listening to the Bill Handle show.
0:09
Speaker 1: Here's Nil Sevadra.
0:12
Speaker 2: He stopped going back in training. Its rebelling again. Okay.
0:18
Speaker 3: So my buddy Joe as Galotte hit me up. He
0:21
Speaker 3: was at that party too. He's actually the one who
0:23
Speaker 3: introduced me to Greg Gutfeld and he goes, I remember
0:25
Speaker 3: that night. Well, all right, KFI am six forty. Nil
0:29
Speaker 3: Savadra in the morning crew with you. Handle is enjoying
0:34
Speaker 3: his Jewish holiday, even though he's a secularist and so
0:39
Speaker 3: ob so he's out doing that pretending he's Jewish while
0:43
Speaker 3: we're here working together. That's fine.
0:45
Speaker 2: And of course lars Guard, that's not Jewish, is it? No? No, okay,
0:51
Speaker 2: it sounded more Viking. I just I feel solidarity with
0:56
Speaker 2: the Jewish people.
0:56
Speaker 3: On a day like today. So do you you are
0:59
Speaker 3: you atoning today? I have a lot to atone for
1:02
Speaker 3: I have a zero doubt in that at all. Joel
1:06
Speaker 3: Larsgard is with us. You can hear them on KFI
1:09
Speaker 3: every single Sunday. So he gives us all we need
1:14
Speaker 3: to know when it comes to you know, money smarts
1:17
Speaker 3: and one of those things is dealing with cars. People
1:21
Speaker 3: are returning their cars, they're used cars while they are
1:28
Speaker 3: upside down in them.
1:30
Speaker 4: Why if I could get into the psyche of the
1:34
Speaker 4: American consumer and I knew why they did the crazy
1:37
Speaker 4: stuff they did that was in their own worst interest,
1:39
Speaker 4: I think I would have a lot more money than
1:41
Speaker 4: I do. But this is one of those things where
1:44
Speaker 4: it's a trend that's just gotten worse and worse over time.
1:47
Speaker 4: And we know that the rige American doesn't handle money
1:51
Speaker 4: spectacularly well, but this is one of those examples where
1:55
Speaker 4: there just aren't many worse things you can do to
1:58
Speaker 4: harm yourself for many years to come. And so what
2:01
Speaker 4: people are doing is they're like, well, I have this car.
2:04
Speaker 4: It's worth like fifteen grand, but I owe I still
2:07
Speaker 4: owe twenty two thousand dollars on it, you know what,
2:10
Speaker 4: It's still time for me to upgrade, Like I can't
2:13
Speaker 4: roll with this thing anymore. And so they're trading in.
2:16
Speaker 4: They're going to a car lot, trading in that car,
2:18
Speaker 4: getting less than it's worth. They're also rolling the additional
2:23
Speaker 4: money that they owe into the new loan for the
2:26
Speaker 4: new car, and especially with higher interest trade something like
2:29
Speaker 4: one in four trade ins right now are being done
2:31
Speaker 4: with negative equity, where people owe more on the car
2:34
Speaker 4: than they're worth. And this is something I could have
2:36
Speaker 4: I was really predicting years ago because as car loan
2:41
Speaker 4: links have continued to grow, people are taking out eighty
2:44
Speaker 4: four month car loans. Now there's so much time during
2:49
Speaker 4: that loan where you do have negative equity. That's why
2:52
Speaker 4: these super long car loans are so nefarious. And then
2:54
Speaker 4: people get tired of their car they traded it in
2:57
Speaker 4: trade in their role car, get a new one. They
2:59
Speaker 4: have a much bigger loan. They're rolling with negative equity
3:02
Speaker 4: on that car for many many years too, So it's
3:04
Speaker 4: a huge problem.
3:05
Speaker 2: It's a car man.
3:06
Speaker 3: I you know, I for a long time drove three
3:10
Speaker 3: series BMW's. I just liked them as cars. I did
3:14
Speaker 3: never went to the five or anything above because everybody
3:16
Speaker 3: I knew that had them, they were in the shop.
3:19
Speaker 3: You go above a three for some reason, they were
3:21
Speaker 3: always in the shop. That's just my perspective. So I
3:24
Speaker 3: was like, I like the way they ride. Until I
3:26
Speaker 3: got in an accident and they put me in a truck.
3:29
Speaker 3: As a loaner, I'm like, what am I doing? I
3:32
Speaker 3: should always be in a truck. This is the greatest thing.
3:35
Speaker 3: I don't have to shove things in the back of
3:36
Speaker 3: my you know, BMW, I can do this And I
3:40
Speaker 3: never looked back. But Handle told me a long time ago.
3:44
Speaker 3: Never think of a car as an investment. It's a tool.
3:47
Speaker 3: You have to drive it, you need it, use it
3:50
Speaker 3: as a utility. Expect to pay for it. And if
3:52
Speaker 3: you have time where you run it into the ground
3:55
Speaker 3: and you're not paying, still put that money aside, knowing
3:58
Speaker 3: that sooner or later, whether you're fixing it or whatever.
4:01
Speaker 3: And so that's how I treat it. I buy three
4:04
Speaker 3: years old. I never buy new cars. I buy three
4:07
Speaker 3: years old, and I run them into the ground. I
4:09
Speaker 3: keep them as good as I can, and that I
4:12
Speaker 3: feel has been and my wife does the same thing.
4:15
Speaker 2: So and that's.
4:16
Speaker 4: Like foreign to most people, right, Like that's not how
4:19
Speaker 4: they they roll, that's not how they think about their car.
4:21
Speaker 2: And they think about it as well.
4:23
Speaker 4: I'm in this thing for two hours a day in
4:26
Speaker 4: LA traffic getting to and from work, and so I
4:29
Speaker 4: want something nice, man. But the problem with that mentality
4:33
Speaker 4: is that it's going to keep you perpetually behind in
4:35
Speaker 4: your ability to make your finances to build wealth and
4:39
Speaker 4: to be become like a smart operator when it comes
4:42
Speaker 4: to your money. So I think, I like I'm similar
4:45
Speaker 4: to you, although I end up buying much much older cars.
4:48
Speaker 2: I'm down with like ten fifteen.
4:50
Speaker 4: The car I'm driving right now that I recently upgraded
4:52
Speaker 4: to is a two thousand and six, And most people
4:54
Speaker 4: would say that's crazy, man, Like, why would you.
4:58
Speaker 2: Especially I didn't do that. Yes, I know a two
5:02
Speaker 2: thousand and six Toyota.
5:03
Speaker 4: Man, Wow, I get some beer you drink. I get
5:08
Speaker 4: so excited to drive that car every day. And it's
5:12
Speaker 4: I think part of the reality what makes me happy
5:16
Speaker 4: about it is that I keep my expectations low, and
5:18
Speaker 4: I see so many people have high expectations of what
5:21
Speaker 4: they deserve. And the truth is, the more money you're
5:24
Speaker 4: funneling into the car payment, buying the fancy new thing
5:27
Speaker 4: and trying to keep up with the joneses, the less options,
5:31
Speaker 4: the fewer options you're giving yourself. I prefer optionality to
5:34
Speaker 4: nice wheels, and so I would just rather see and
5:38
Speaker 4: not everybody's going to feel that way. And some people
5:40
Speaker 4: want a nice car. That's totally fine. Just make sure
5:43
Speaker 4: you can actually afford it and that means if you're
5:45
Speaker 4: going to buy a new car, or even a three
5:48
Speaker 4: or four year old car, a thirty six to a
5:50
Speaker 4: forty eight month car loan is the max I want
5:52
Speaker 4: to see you taking on. And if you're like, I
5:54
Speaker 4: need a nicer car than that, but you're paying you
5:56
Speaker 4: can't work out the payments to pay to pay it
5:59
Speaker 4: off in three to four years, then it's too much
6:01
Speaker 4: car and you need to reconsider. Maybe you need to
6:03
Speaker 4: dial back and get a slightly older one, or get
6:05
Speaker 4: something that's not quite as fancy. But this sort of
6:09
Speaker 4: rolling the negative equity in when you're making the trade,
6:11
Speaker 4: and it's like, this is one of those things that
6:13
Speaker 4: can create perpetual financial problems.
6:15
Speaker 2: For years to come. Yeah.
6:16
Speaker 3: The old when you sit down and the first thing
6:19
Speaker 3: the salesperson asks you is how much do you want
6:21
Speaker 3: to pay a month?
6:22
Speaker 2: I'm like, wrong question, yep, that's a big trap. Zero.
6:26
Speaker 3: Actually they pull that off. Yeah, yeah, that same thing.
6:30
Speaker 3: I like that concept of lowing your lowering your expectation.
6:34
Speaker 3: I think that's actually one of the ways that Cono
6:37
Speaker 3: got married at all. But God bless his wife for
6:41
Speaker 3: doing that. You know, kick the tires, get something that's
6:44
Speaker 3: a fixer upper.
6:45
Speaker 2: To serve us to the world she's doing.
6:47
Speaker 3: But I am big on that, like just it can
6:50
Speaker 3: be nice. My car looks nice, my truck looks nice.
6:53
Speaker 3: But it's going to be ten years old next year. Yeah,
6:55
Speaker 3: and I'm okay with that. It feels new to me.
6:59
Speaker 3: I still smile, like you said, I still smile every
7:01
Speaker 3: time I get in it, and it treats me well.
7:04
Speaker 3: And I you know, four wheel drive, go up in
7:07
Speaker 3: the mountains like and it feels as exciting to me
7:11
Speaker 3: as when I first saw it.
7:13
Speaker 4: And what you're doing is the exact opposite of what
7:15
Speaker 4: most people do. They are getting close to the end
7:17
Speaker 4: of their payments and they're thinking about the next car
7:20
Speaker 4: that they can get into, and what you're doing is saying, well,
7:23
Speaker 4: I'm just gonna like stay in love with this thing
7:26
Speaker 4: and then I'm gonna I don't have any payments anymore.
7:28
Speaker 4: Let me stick that money into a savings account. So
7:30
Speaker 4: the next time when you do need to upgrade, Neil,
7:32
Speaker 4: when you are getting the truck's getting longer, the tooth
7:35
Speaker 4: or has given you too many problems, then you can
7:38
Speaker 4: You've got the cash to go get the next thing,
7:40
Speaker 4: and you don't have to worry about payments at all.
7:42
Speaker 2: That's the way to live.
7:43
Speaker 3: Yeah, we all know that one, that one breakdown where
7:46
Speaker 3: they give you the cost to fix it and you go, okay,
7:51
Speaker 3: but I'm a big I'm a big fixer. I believe
7:53
Speaker 3: on that because that car's got to go somewhere, and
7:56
Speaker 3: if it's just going to go into a dump or
7:58
Speaker 3: something like that, I'd rather try and fix it and
7:59
Speaker 3: run out. Right now, we're talking to Joel lars Guard
8:02
Speaker 3: from How to Money, heard here on Sunday's Noon to two,
8:07
Speaker 3: and we're talking about money, right, I think that's what.
8:11
Speaker 2: You like to talk about. Or were you talking about
8:14
Speaker 2: California beers.
8:16
Speaker 4: Both, Yeah, simultaneously. California beers will cost you a lot
8:18
Speaker 4: of money though.
8:19
Speaker 2: Yeah, but the man knows his beers. I'll give him that.
8:23
Speaker 3: So there's a real estate investor that thinks emergency funds
8:27
Speaker 3: are stupid.
8:28
Speaker 2: Now I've heard you just recently.
8:29
Speaker 3: You were talking with Amy King about having a certain
8:31
Speaker 3: amount of money in emergency and you adjusted that for inflation.
8:37
Speaker 3: I think as three thousand and some odd dollars three
8:39
Speaker 3: thy forty something like that to have in an emergency
8:42
Speaker 3: fund at you know, kind of bare minimum type thing.
8:47
Speaker 3: So what's the reasoning behind this.
8:49
Speaker 4: So first, like to hear people disparage the emergency funds,
8:53
Speaker 4: like that's fighting words for me, man, Like I'll go
8:56
Speaker 4: enter into the octagon with you. If you're going to
8:58
Speaker 4: talk smack about emergency funds, just not cool. And so
9:02
Speaker 4: to hear somebody be like in the real estate business
9:04
Speaker 4: say emergency funds are totally overblown and they're a tool
9:08
Speaker 4: of the banks to siphon off your savings. You should
9:11
Speaker 4: be investing every dollar. I'm a big fan of investing
9:15
Speaker 4: and growing your money up for the long haul, but
9:17
Speaker 4: that doesn't mean you don't need some fallback liquid cash
9:20
Speaker 4: at the same time. And so it's just a ridiculous assertion.
9:23
Speaker 4: And the number that I prescribe Neil Sabatra is three
9:27
Speaker 4: thousand and forty five dollars, and I like a really
9:30
Speaker 4: specific number for a couple of reasons. One, it's based
9:33
Speaker 4: on a finding from a few years ago that economists
9:35
Speaker 4: said twenty four hundred and sixty seven dollars is the
9:38
Speaker 4: optimum amount to have if you enter some if you
9:41
Speaker 4: have some sort of financial emergency, whether that's a car
9:44
Speaker 4: issue or a health issue, like this will get you through,
9:48
Speaker 4: and I just updated it for inflation and now it's
9:51
Speaker 4: three thousand and forty five, So I just kind of
9:52
Speaker 4: wanted to make it more more accurate. But I think
9:55
Speaker 4: there's something nice about a highly specific number to shoot for,
9:57
Speaker 4: because if you just say probably like twenty five hundre
10:00
Speaker 4: it or something like that, it doesn't stick in your
10:02
Speaker 4: brain as well, and it's there's there's something about that
10:05
Speaker 4: stickiness that really helps people go after a goal that
10:09
Speaker 4: they've set in front of them. So I really want people,
10:11
Speaker 4: yes to have an emergency fund. Don't listen to the
10:13
Speaker 4: haters out there who say that they're overrated or anything
10:16
Speaker 4: like that, because they're certainly not. And I'm thinking about
10:19
Speaker 4: real estate investors too. Right now, it's not a great market.
10:22
Speaker 4: There's some people who are losing money every month.
10:24
Speaker 2: Good thing.
10:25
Speaker 4: It's nice to have liquid cash on hand to be
10:27
Speaker 4: able to absorb those losses.
10:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, there there is something weird about that. Like I
10:32
Speaker 3: learned early on that if you have down payment for
10:37
Speaker 3: a car and the amount of money you need to
10:39
Speaker 3: pay it off each month, that's not enough. You got
10:43
Speaker 3: to have something, even if it's a new car. You
10:46
Speaker 3: got to have something put aside. In case there's a breakdown,
10:50
Speaker 3: an accident that you need to pay. You know, you're
10:53
Speaker 3: part of the insurance, your premiums and all that. You know,
10:57
Speaker 3: they're that's part of the cost. It's like tips now,
11:01
Speaker 3: it's part of the cost of going out period.
11:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, yep.
11:04
Speaker 4: And I if I'm going to be incredibly generous to
11:07
Speaker 4: this guy, his name's Grant card Don If I'm gonna
11:09
Speaker 4: be incredibly generous.
11:11
Speaker 2: Take him down, man, take him down.
11:12
Speaker 4: Maybe what he's trying to say is that there are
11:15
Speaker 4: people who way over index to saving money and they
11:18
Speaker 4: don't start investing early enough when they should. And you
11:22
Speaker 4: can go on howdmoney dot com and you can look
11:25
Speaker 4: at click the start here button and you can see
11:27
Speaker 4: the money gears. And I do think that there's obviously
11:30
Speaker 4: a real importance to investing and to start investing early on.
11:35
Speaker 4: That's like, but after the first thing, which is saving
11:38
Speaker 4: up that basic emergency fund, it's snagging your company's four
11:41
Speaker 4: one K match that's the very next thing on the list,
11:43
Speaker 4: and investing is all throughout the money gears. It's like
11:45
Speaker 4: a really important part of it is to you're not
11:48
Speaker 4: gonna be able to grow your wealth in the way
11:49
Speaker 4: you want to through basic savings, especially if you're with
11:52
Speaker 4: one of the crappy big banks that I really hate.
11:54
Speaker 4: So yeah, if I'm gonna be really generous, maybe he's
11:57
Speaker 4: just trying to say there's way too many people who
11:59
Speaker 4: are over indexed on savings and they're not investing money
12:02
Speaker 4: in the way they need to be.
12:04
Speaker 2: But you just can't.
12:05
Speaker 4: Hate on emergency funds because they're a really crucial part
12:08
Speaker 4: of the peace of mind that you need to have
12:10
Speaker 4: when you're trying to manage your finance as well, and
12:12
Speaker 4: the financial backstop as well.
12:15
Speaker 3: I'm a big fan of for one K in the matching.
12:18
Speaker 3: I think it's it's a no brainer. But I guarantee
12:22
Speaker 3: that people that don't have that emergency fund, the first
12:24
Speaker 3: thing they do is look to their four A one
12:27
Speaker 3: K to take money out when they you know. So
12:30
Speaker 3: to me, it's the same thing. It's if you don't
12:32
Speaker 3: have that, then you're it's just gonna screw you know,
12:36
Speaker 3: with your money cu La.
12:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's a huge problem.
12:39
Speaker 4: I'm glad you mentioned that, because where do people turn
12:41
Speaker 4: if they don't have an emergency fund. There aren't many
12:44
Speaker 4: great places, And yeah, not making as much money on
12:49
Speaker 4: the thousands of dollars that you have in a savings account.
12:52
Speaker 4: That's a really small problem, not having that money in
12:55
Speaker 4: the account when you need it and turning to your
12:57
Speaker 4: four oh one K to rip money out of there.
13:00
Speaker 4: It's becoming easier to do that, but it doesn't mean
13:02
Speaker 4: it's a good thing, and that's a really big problem
13:04
Speaker 4: in my estimation. I had a listener reach out recently
13:07
Speaker 4: and he's trying to move jobs, and he's gotten outstanding
13:09
Speaker 4: for a one K loan and he doesn't have the
13:11
Speaker 4: money to pay it back yet, and so there are
13:13
Speaker 4: all these issues that come down the line. Not to
13:15
Speaker 4: mention you're pulling money out, it's not working for you
13:17
Speaker 4: anymore in the market, but there's a lot of issues
13:20
Speaker 4: with taking loans and taking money out of your retirement accounts.
13:24
Speaker 4: I'd much rather have you save up that basic emergency fund.
13:27
Speaker 4: You can always grow it up to a bigger number
13:30
Speaker 4: at a later date, which is a smart move, But
13:32
Speaker 4: that basic e fund is like, there's just no there's
13:35
Speaker 4: no better option. I guess it's no better place to
13:37
Speaker 4: start for people when they're trying to get their finances
13:39
Speaker 4: in shape.
13:40
Speaker 3: I've made little money, and I've made more than little money.
13:44
Speaker 3: And I will tell you nothing makes me feel more
13:48
Speaker 3: rich in life than having a little bit of padding. Yeah,
13:53
Speaker 3: that's it. Yeah, I'm not talking about my belly, Kno,
13:55
Speaker 3: I know where you're gonna go. I'm just saying there's
13:57
Speaker 3: something about having a reserve that that means more to
14:01
Speaker 3: me than having a fancy car or living in a
14:04
Speaker 3: massive house. Just having enough padding that when the it
14:08
Speaker 3: hits the shan somewhere in life and you're like, you
14:12
Speaker 3: know what.
14:12
Speaker 2: We're okay, okay. One of my favorite means more And
14:16
Speaker 2: that's like three thousand, like you said. Yeah.
14:19
Speaker 4: One of my favorite quotes is from financial writer Morgan Household,
14:23
Speaker 4: and he says, to save like a pessimist, but to
14:25
Speaker 4: invest like an optimist. And I think that's just a
14:27
Speaker 4: really smart way to live your life. I'm an optimist.
14:30
Speaker 4: But also like, if you're overly optimistic and you say
14:33
Speaker 4: nothing bad's going to happen to me, well that's unlikely, right.
14:36
Speaker 4: Bad things do happen and financial emergencies do occur. So
14:39
Speaker 4: you need to save in such a way where you're
14:42
Speaker 4: ready for those bad events. But you want to invest
14:44
Speaker 4: in such a way where you're like the sky's the limit,
14:46
Speaker 4: not not like Yolo sort of investing, but like truly investing,
14:50
Speaker 4: because you believe that in the future of this country,
14:53
Speaker 4: and you believe in the companies that are helping create
14:56
Speaker 4: some of that future for us.
14:57
Speaker 2: So I love that sort of dichotomy.
14:59
Speaker 4: If you can live your life with your foot in
15:02
Speaker 4: both of those spaces, I think that's a good way
15:03
Speaker 4: to go.
15:04

Speaker 3: out because she works tonight. What is it rams in
15:41
Speaker 3: forty nine ers?
15:42
Speaker 2: Yes, it's Rams and forty nine ers. It's so fine.
15:45
Speaker 2: Not the chargers earlier, right, I was thinking it was
15:47
Speaker 2: the chargers.
15:47
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna correct you on sports ball. I don't know,
15:51
Speaker 3: okay about sports ball.
15:52
Speaker 4: I'm sure I know something about it, so I should
15:54
Speaker 4: have had that one.
15:56
Speaker 3: What What did Shannon Farren come in? Screaming, choking you,
16:01
Speaker 3: punching you in the face. I don't think she's here yet,
16:03
Speaker 3: but I will keep that in mind and lock my door.
16:06
Speaker 3: Yeah I would. She's small but mighty fearsome. Still got
16:12
Speaker 3: the bite marks on my arm from something she didn't
16:15
Speaker 3: like that. I said, horrible, horrible human being. Oh stop,
16:19
Speaker 3: I just okay, switching things just a little bit.
16:22
Speaker 2: I was gonna.
16:24
Speaker 3: Do a story about Trump, hence the music there, but
16:27
Speaker 3: I wanted to talk about something that I was reading
16:30
Speaker 3: last night about Tennessee setting to execute a woman thirty
16:37
Speaker 3: years after the murder she committed when she was eighteen.
16:42
Speaker 3: I think her name's Krista Pike. Now they set the
16:47
Speaker 3: date for about a year out. It'll be September thirtieth
16:53
Speaker 3: of twenty twenty six. She was eighteen years old when
16:57
Speaker 3: she and two others lured a nineteen year old old
17:01
Speaker 3: young lady, Callen Slimmer into the woods in Knoxville in
17:07
Speaker 3: nineteen ninety five and carried out an attack that made
17:12
Speaker 3: national headlines. Oh well, that's rude. It's got a two
17:19
Speaker 3: letter text from Shannon Farren. How rude from such a
17:28
Speaker 3: demure young lady.
17:31
Speaker 2: I'll give you a hint. The first letter was an
17:34
Speaker 2: F so Christa Gail.
17:39
Speaker 3: This story is absolutely horrible about what they did to
17:44
Speaker 3: this young girl. A groundskeeper found the body the next day, beaten, stabbed, bludgeoned,
17:53
Speaker 3: a pentagram carved into her forehead and her chest.
18:02
Speaker 2: The very act.
18:05
Speaker 3: And brutality of the killing stands alone, vulgar and heinous
18:12
Speaker 3: in every way, indescribable from a standpoint of humanity, without
18:21
Speaker 3: explanation that could ever cover the smallest of cracks and
18:29
Speaker 3: what was done. Not a lot of women have been
18:36
Speaker 3: on death row or been executed. As a matter of fact,
18:39
Speaker 3: in Tennessee, it's been two hundred years and she'll only
18:42
Speaker 3: be the nineteenth woman executed if they go through with this,
18:45
Speaker 3: which I think they should. She also kept a momento
18:50
Speaker 3: from smashing in the skull of this young lady.
18:53
Speaker 2: She took a piece of the skull.
18:55
Speaker 3: She bragged about it to friends, her boyfriend at the time,
19:04
Speaker 3: to Darryl Shipp was convicted of first degree murder, sentenced
19:08
Speaker 3: to life in prison will become eligible for parole, by.
19:12
Speaker 2: The way, in November.
19:13
Speaker 3: According to inmate records, she says that she's changed and
19:20
Speaker 3: learned a lot since then. And I have no doubt
19:22
Speaker 3: whether she did or didn't. I mean they if she
19:26
Speaker 3: says so.
19:26
Speaker 2: Sure. But the.
19:31
Speaker 3: Judicial system has a couple different purposes, one of which
19:38
Speaker 3: is to protect. The most important to me is to
19:40
Speaker 3: protect society. The second is to punish. But ultimately, all
19:53
Speaker 3: of that has to be first to protect society. Someone
19:58
Speaker 3: who brutally murders someone like that, that takes a momento
20:02
Speaker 3: of their skull and brags about it has no more
20:06
Speaker 3: place in society. I'm sorry you don't. You're going to
20:12
Speaker 3: go on the teaching circuit about how bad you were
20:14
Speaker 3: and how people No, that's for somebody who makes a mistake.
20:16
Speaker 3: This is not a mistake. You're not going to change
20:21
Speaker 3: people's hearts and say, hey, I did this. I truly
20:25
Speaker 3: believe that when it comes to the death penalty, that
20:31
Speaker 3: it is more humane to treat to treat another human
20:38
Speaker 3: like they knew what they were doing, if they were
20:41
Speaker 3: in their right mind, meaning that there was no obvious
20:44
Speaker 3: you know, everybody's mental kill someone else. I guess you'd say,
20:47
Speaker 3: but didn't have something specific that made them stand out.
20:52
Speaker 3: They could be in court and they could be prosecuted.
20:58
Speaker 3: That it is less humane to put them in the
21:01
Speaker 3: cage for the rest of their life like an animal
21:03
Speaker 3: who doesn't know the difference than it is to put
21:09
Speaker 3: them out of their misery, and to make your area
21:17
Speaker 3: wherever you live, wherever she lived, wherever she could go
21:20
Speaker 3: and cause more havoc safe. There are two options in life.
21:27
Speaker 3: You put bad people in jail, or they get executed
21:33
Speaker 3: for heinous crimes that are irreversible in their own psyche
21:38
Speaker 3: and the psyche of the public in which is supposed
21:41
Speaker 3: to be protected. You put them in jail or the
21:45
Speaker 3: rest of us that didn't do those things, or in
21:47
Speaker 3: prison with them because they're on the outs. So either
21:52
Speaker 3: the entire country is a prison because we decide to
21:57
Speaker 3: let people who don't deserve to be free, who have
22:02
Speaker 3: done heinous crimes against the very system. We all say, Okay,
22:07
Speaker 3: we're agreeing upon this. This is what society is, and
22:09
Speaker 3: this is how it's got to work for it to have.
22:13
Speaker 2: Structure and.
22:16
Speaker 3: Be strong and endure and grow and be able to
22:20
Speaker 3: raise children. In So, either you think you're better than
22:27
Speaker 3: these people, and you're so superior that they can't control
22:31
Speaker 3: themselves the way you can, or you say they are
22:35
Speaker 3: my equal, and they chose to go out of the
22:40
Speaker 3: bounds of what we've agreed upon, and they need to
22:43
Speaker 3: be locked away or better yet, in a heinous crime
22:47
Speaker 3: like this male female doesn't matter to me. They committed
22:52
Speaker 3: a heinous crime of murder, especially in the way they
22:58
Speaker 3: that they did. They're done, human garbage. You have no
23:03
Speaker 3: place in society. Let God sort that garbage out.
23:08
Speaker 1: God. Good doodle doo, folks. I'm Donald Trump, and there's
23:11
Speaker 1: two things in the world.
23:13
Speaker 2: I love a good deal and a good deal. Join
23:17
Speaker 2: me at Donald Trump's House of Wids.
23:22
Speaker 1: You know we're making you know me well.
23:39
Speaker 3: Trump Dancing Man is the best I want to get into.
23:43
Speaker 3: Where Trump's focus lies on the next possible cancelation, Who
23:48
Speaker 3: knows in just a moment.
23:49
Speaker 2: First, I want to tell you it's.
23:51
Speaker 3: Halloween time at the Disneyland Resort and k IF I
23:54

Speaker 3: a lot of fun foods as well. A Happiest Halloween

24:19
Speaker 3: for your chance to win a four pack of one day,
24:22
Speaker 3: one park tickets to Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure
24:26
Speaker 3: Park from KFI am six forty boom. So, President Donald Trump,
24:33
Speaker 3: you just heard Drum's Wings. That's probably one of my favorite.
24:36
Speaker 3: They've done a lot of skits on Saturday Night Live
24:39
Speaker 3: about Trump and with Trump. That one was with Trump
24:42
Speaker 3: years ago, and he talks about how it's the best
24:45
Speaker 3: part of the bird. It's fantastic and he's dancing and
24:50
Speaker 3: they're singing and everything. But that love affair ended after
24:56
Speaker 3: he ran for the first time. Over the years they
25:01
Speaker 3: were friends, they'd have him on. He was kind of
25:04
Speaker 3: inseparable with the vibe of New York City.
25:07
Speaker 2: Show up in movies.
25:09
Speaker 3: The President actually hosted the show in two thousand and
25:12
Speaker 3: four and in twenty fifteen, so shortly after they announced
25:18
Speaker 3: that his first run for presidency was going to take place.
25:22
Speaker 3: It was kind of controversial at the time SNL decided
25:25
Speaker 3: to have him come host. NBC's Top Brass defended the move.
25:30
Speaker 3: They said, hey, he's a front runner runner and that
25:34
Speaker 3: status among Republicans and the high ratings that produced made sense.
25:37
Speaker 3: At the end of the day, he was on the
25:39
Speaker 3: show for about eleven minutes and the earth didn't fall
25:42
Speaker 3: off its access.
25:44
Speaker 2: But then.
25:47
Speaker 3: He was referred to as toxic and demented by NBC
25:53
Speaker 3: Entertainment chairman, and so their relationship has gone south. So
26:00
Speaker 3: right now with Trump coming out and saying that ninety
26:06
Speaker 3: seven percent of what is said about him on television
26:11
Speaker 3: is negative and that maybe he needs to look at
26:14
Speaker 3: licenses and these types of things, which should shake you
26:18
Speaker 3: to your bones. Not because I believe everything he says.
26:23
Speaker 3: I do not, but a president saying that is not good,
26:29
Speaker 3: even playing around like I said, if he came out
26:31
Speaker 3: and said we're going to take away guns from Democrats,
26:35
Speaker 3: that should shake you to the bones too. Anytime you're
26:37
Speaker 3: messing with the Constitution, there's a problem. But now it's
26:41
Speaker 3: there is some speculation. This comes from Caitlin Huemani from
26:48
Speaker 3: The La Times says that maybe Saturday Night Live might
26:52
Speaker 3: be in his crosshairs.
26:54
Speaker 2: He for some time has gone after it. Now.
26:57
Speaker 3: I've said this before on the Jimmy Kimmel thing did
27:00
Speaker 3: with Jimmy because you had the car from the FCC,
27:04
Speaker 3: and you had Trump making allusions to messing with free
27:09
Speaker 3: speech on the air. And to me, that's different than
27:12
Speaker 3: Roseanne Barr getting booted for saying racist things.
27:15
Speaker 2: Iking it to.
27:18
Speaker 3: Gina Carano being booted from the Mandalorian, which I thought
27:22
Speaker 3: was a horrible censorship, even though they had the right
27:28
Speaker 3: to do it because of the fact that they let
27:30
Speaker 3: the Pedro Pascal stay on, even though he said something
27:34
Speaker 3: very similar prior. But one was conservative and one was
27:38
Speaker 3: liberal and they were treated differently. But I still don't
27:42
Speaker 3: believe Trump had anything to do with Jimmy Kimmel passed
27:47
Speaker 3: the part of.
27:49
Speaker 2: Him saying those things.
27:51
Speaker 3: I don't know that there's any evidence that he actually
27:53
Speaker 3: went to somebody like Sinclair and said, hey, don't put
27:56
Speaker 3: him on. Could happened, but I don't know that there's
27:59
Speaker 3: any evidence that. However, if he goes after Saturday Night
28:06
Speaker 3: Live or things like that, that's just straight up censorship,
28:08
Speaker 3: and nobody who has any love or understanding of the
28:12
Speaker 3: Constitution should celebrate that in any way, shape or form.
28:17
Speaker 3: So we'll see if he ends up trying to go
28:19
Speaker 3: after that. They're firing all their funny people over there anyways,
28:24
Speaker 3: so I'm not sure that it will matter, but we
28:27
Speaker 3: shall see. All right, stick around, You've got Gary and
28:29
Speaker 3: Shannon coming up. Bill will be back tomorrow. Thanks so much.
28:33
