  Speaker 3: And Bill, Yes, yeah, well I do.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: I do.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: There's a story that I'm following. It's just in the
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: La Times that it's just an aside. And all of
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: the entertainers who have dropped out of the two hundred
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: and fiftieth anniversary program that Trump has put together as
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: you know, and there as soon as they realize this
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: was more political.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: Than now, they're just bailing like crazy.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: And what the people are also upset two hundred and
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: fifty years the UFC White House fight, you know, you
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: the MMA fight in the cage match. Also, there are
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: going to be race cars. There's going to be a
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: race and the White House has said these are sports
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: that the American people love and it is one of
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: those things that we can't.
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: Ignore one of the biggest spectator sports in the world.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I'm not arguing that.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying, you know, it's it's sort of taking
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: a spin away from what you would think at two
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: hundred and fifty anniversary is going to be where President
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Trump said he is going to make it a rally
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: of which he is going to be.
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: The speaker because everybody, because.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: Everybody is bailing out.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Here's I have an idea, you know for the Second Amendment, folks,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: is they put up a fence.
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: On the South Lawn and release some deer.
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: And Kono's signing up right now.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: You know, we could really do There's a lot can
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: be done all rights before you do.
• 5:13
  Speaker 6: That, though, I was going to tell you about that
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: UFC fight at the White House. Do you remember Morgan
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: who used to work for us and she got press
• 5:22
  Speaker 6: credentialed for that. She's going to the White House for
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: that fight.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: Ah, then maybe you know what we can do is
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: I have her on, have her on afterwards, Uh talk about,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: oh absolutely what it was like.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: And I also heard that they're painting, you know, because
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: the White House, they're painting all the cars white and
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: it's going to be the white race.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: M no, no, I jump, I kid, I kid. They
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: could although for the race.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: You know how all the racers wear those outfits that
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: have the different sponsors names on them. It's all going
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: to be pictures of Trump, all of them. It's going
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: to be absolutely fantastic. There's so many visuals here that
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: you can have with this. All right, guys, let's do
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: it. It is time for handle on the news on this
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: Tuesday December or excuse me, June two.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: Why December? I don't know.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Okay, here we go, lead story, everybody, jes Okay. Today
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: is election day for it's the primary day and in
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: California it gets kind of interesting because California. I'll talk
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: more about this, but the top two vote getters go
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: and it can be then go to the general assuming
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: no one gets the fifty percent plus one, and so
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: the top two are going to go in the general election.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: They both can be Republicans, they both can be Democrats
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: or one or the other, which is probably gonna happen hopefully.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: And a lot of races are nonpartisan. The DA's race,
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: the mayor's race is nonpartisan. You can't you don't put
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: down a party that you belong to, although everybody knows
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: there's Democrat and there's Republicans.
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: So to talk much more about that. At seven o'clock.
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: Free ride for election Day, Metro is offering free rides
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: on buses, rail service, bicycles, Metro micro all free of
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: charge to help get voters to polling places to cast
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: their ballots.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: All right, so they're making it as easy as possible
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: for people to cast their ballots, which is kind of neat.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: And here again is the fight between those folks that
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: are effectively saying that we're going to make it so
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: easy and I'll actually almost push people to vote, versus
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Republicans who are arguing mail in ballots should either be
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: disallowed or at least limited to a great extent. For
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: political purposes, because Republicans tend to vote on the day
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: of the election far more than Democrats do. All right,
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: you want to take a break, Yeah, why don't we
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: take the sign for the La Metro says for those
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: dying to vote.
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: Huh, that's very strong, that's good.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: On again, off again, on again.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: So you've got escalated violence going on in the Middle East,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: and what does this threaten everything? The people? It stalled
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: peace talks between Iran and the United States. Negotiations are
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: completely struggling, shaky ceasefire boom.
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: That's where we're at.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: So Iran suspended talks with US the US on Monday
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: after Israel intensified attacks in Lebanon and.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: Two different stories here.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: The president says, we're about to sign a deal. They're
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: really negotiating. The Iran wants a deal desperately, and Ran
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: is saying, what are you talking about. We're suspending all
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: the talks and so getting weird stories from both sides,
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: and who do you believe?
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: None of them. I'm sure there's a little bit of
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: truth and a whole lot.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Of lying from both sides, and the attacks on Lebanon continue.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: He calls Netanyahu, this is the President and is quoted
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: as saying, are you effing crazy?
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: Right? Yeah, this obviously has some some issues with it.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: But I got to tell you, if I was Iran,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: I'd be playing it this way too, just like, but
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: you make Trump look like an idiot in a country
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: where people think he already is and all they have
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: to do is go we never said that, and everybody
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: believes them.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it's just it's too weird, and Trump supporters
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: are still out there. I was listening to a congress
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: person being interviewed and he said, when this is over,
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: oil prices will drop to before the war's prices. It'll
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: be some of the cheapest oil or gasoline will ever had.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: And then he was asked, yeah, when is the war
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: going to be over? When the war is over, I
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: can't tell you exactly when. Wait a minute, the war
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: was over day one. Remember, we obliterated their navy. We
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: obliterated their ability to enrich uranium. Although the negotiations now
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: are to enrich uranium or their their ability to rich
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: uranium in uranium program that they don't have. Okay, this
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: is completely crazy, but moving on. Oh that was the story.
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it was, Neil, you're up again.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Oh you you're just gonna want one, the one that
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: said that about crazy. Yeah, yeah, I can. I gotta
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: see Trump doing that. I can see him literally blowing up.
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: He goes people hate Israel? Right now? What are you doing?
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: And that's hanging out? Who doesn't care? Well, he just
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: doesn't care, not much. Why is he continuing on amy?
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Why does he at this point just ignoring what Trump
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: has asked him to do.
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: It's principle.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: I don't say it's they attacked Israel, right, I understand,
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: no question about it, no question about it. It's the issue
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: of how far you can go. For example, is there
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: any threat whatsoever from Hamas against Israel anymore? Does anybody
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: think Hamas is the threat? Israel is now about controlling
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: about two thirds of Gayza eyect me.
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: Is a hydra, you know that.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: Terrorism is a hydra. They're going to cut one head
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: another head.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: Comes, Well, we'll see. And the problem is one hundred
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: thousand Palestinians have died. And that's a question. Is that
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: a bridge too far? A bridge has already been blown up.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: I've told you this before. You had about three thousand
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: Americans die when Pearl Harbor was bombed and we killed
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: well over two hundred and fifty thousand people by dropping bombs.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: That was a four year war, four year war in
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: which the Japan went all the way and killed as
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: many Americans as possible and tens of thousands and the
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Pacific theater maybe even the hundreds of thousands of Americans.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: That if Hamas had the power and the ability, they
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: would have killed more Jews that day, that's correct.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: But they don't anymore. And you still continue on and
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: wipe out Gaza. That's the question. Okay, let's move on.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: You and I can do this forever, all.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Right, Hey, don't worry about war. We got carstagens to
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: talk about. So this new study is looking at the
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: Eton fire zones the Palisade fire zones again back in
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. They say that some of these carcinogens
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: known as chromium six, that's a toxic metal and carstogen.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: It affects per people's lungs. It's associated with asthma, bronchitis,
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: even lung can sir. They're showing that this from these
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: two fires spread to more than three million people as
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: it floated through the air even after the fire was
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: put out up to nine miles or so away.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're going to find you're going to analogize this
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: what happened nine to eleven, How many people were actually affected.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: That's where my immediate that were not in the immediate
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: zone of the building's falling.
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: Okay, who's going to pay and how much? That's what
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: jurors are going to be deciding. Deliberations are scheduled to
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: get underway in a civil trial to determine the financial
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: responsibility for the deaths of eleven year old Mark Iskander
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: and his eight year old brother Jacob. They were hit
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: and killed crossing the street with their family in Westlake
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: Village in September of twenty twenty. Rebecca Grossman has already
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: been held convicted criminally for it. Now this is the
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: civil trial for jurors to decide how much responsible Rebecca
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: Grossman and former LA Dodgers Pitcher Scott Ericson bear for
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: the boy's deaths and how much money should be awarded
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: to their family. Damages sought in the hundreds of millions
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: of dollars.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's going to be huge, by the way, if
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: they get one hundred million dollars, if they get hundreds
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: of millions. That's not going to go anyplace. That's the
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: symbolic number. The judge will, of course bring it way
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: way down. How much do you think she's worth? You know,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: I don't know, but she's going to be cleaned out.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you that. There's not going to be anything
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: left that she has. And they come from a fairly
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: wealthy family. She is part of the family. The Grossman
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Burn Center and these are that's a major worldwide burn
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: center that's here in southern California. And on top of that,
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: as Amy just said, the jury is simply going to
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: determine how much money. There's no such thing as arguing
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: liability anymore other than trying to compare the two drivers,
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: because once you have a conviction, there's no defense anymore.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: In a civil trial, you cannot argue a defense. The
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: only thing that's left is how much money is going
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: to be awarded, and it's going to be big, big money.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: But again, what normally happens when you have huge awards
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: is the defendant immediately goes in front of the judge
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: and asks for something called remitter, and the judge looks
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: at it and brings it way way down because it's
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: it's not reasonable to you know, collect eighty million or
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: one hundred million. Maybe it is, depending on what the
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: judge thinks, but it will be the award will be massive.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: And you're right, Neil, the award will be massive.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: All right, stop giving giving your kids motor vehicles.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: It's bad.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: Authority is here in so Cal are warning parents yet
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: again about the dangers of teens illegally riding these et
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: bikes and these e motorcycles that we see all all
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: over the freaking place. There's this video going around. Fontana
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Police Department sent it out. It shows two riders on
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: E motorcycles speeding through Hunter's Ridge neighborhood back in late May,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: and the cops are saying both riders were seen performing stunts,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: popping wheeli's, standing on their bikes, traveling through residential streets
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: and they saw the officers and just took off.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: And yeah, that's all the chicks. But see that's the thing.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: One of well, Lindsey's assister in law that knows a
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: lot of the kids, and you can see him around
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: here doing crazy ass stunts and to your point of
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: running away from the cops, that's part of the game
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: that when the cops show up. They now are running
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: away and think that is fun and terrific to avert
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: the cops, to make sure the cops it's just it's
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: sick stuff, and they do follow.
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: These kids are going to make it worse.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: The kids are, you know, it's it's horrible. It's just
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: all of it in the scale. And I think we
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: talked to Jim. The number of injuries among these yeahs
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: has just gone astronomical.
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: Well, some of these bikes can go up to fifty
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: miles an hour. They're not really bikes, they're really motorcycles.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: H Yeah, they are, and they you don't need a
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: license and just crazy, yeah yep.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: And you can't be fifteen and ride them. That's the
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: issue is that they're they're not edally allowed to ride these.
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: I don't know, you know what, I don't know the
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: answer to that.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: I think I don't think the motorcycle versions for show
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: maybe not.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: But those are official motorcycles, not the ones that are
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: not d motorcycles.
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: Well, there's E bicycles and there's E motorcycles, right, and
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: there is bicycles can go up to twenty eight miles
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: an hour. The motorcycles can go faster, and kids under
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: eighteen are not supposed to be on them. That's why
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: they're they're bringing charges against parents now.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: Yes, they're letting their kids ride as they should. I
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: just bought an e twice goal, not a bicycle. I did,
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: I did. I just bought it a couple of days
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: ago to run and only because I have no balance.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: And if I tried to ride a bicycle and I'm done,
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: Neil has a video.
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: I have videos.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: You tried to ride a bike?
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I fell off it as long as a
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: canal when we were in France and I came this,
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: I mean I fell over and I came this close.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: Uh really just drill a lot, just falling right into
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: the canal.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: I almost went into the drink because he was trying
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: to close and I was behind him and on my hat.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: I think I had a go pro.
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think clearly. Instagram posts of that.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: I know I gotta find it. I gotta to find it.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: It was high hilarious. I know how we can stop
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: this though. They need a police department with paintballs with
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: they just ride up alongside him.
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: That might work.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: That might work anyway. The trike that I bought goes
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: I think up to twenty two mile per hour. And
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: since I'm fairly frightened to falling off even a trike,
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: I am going to be obviously in a helmet because
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: that's the law. And I'm gonna have shoulder pads and
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: knee pads. You ever been to a birthday party where
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: they have those Suma Wrestler Sumo wrestler costumes. I'll be
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: wearing one of those also when I ride the trunk. Yeah,
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be.
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: Jew in the world.
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's gonna be It's actually gonna be fun. It's
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: delivered on Friday.
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: Wait, you're serious. You really got one?
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: I really got one. I really got I can go.
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: And hang out with everybody in leisure world.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: They all have true Thank you very much. I actually
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: got an e trike and my thing is bad. I
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: haven't had a balance. I mean, Neil has seen me
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: lose my balance over the years, where it's gotten worse
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: and worse. I started losing my balance while when I
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: was in my thirties.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: Hmmm.
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: Pulling the plug on plus one seating for plus size passengers.
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: Southwest air Lines has reversed its policy that required people
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: who needed an extra seat to buy it. Now, they
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: will allow passengers to show up at the gate if
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: there's space on the plane. The ticket agent or gate
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: agent will say, okay, here you can have this seat,
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: and you can have this extra seat. But they also
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: are saying that it's probably still a good idea for
• 20:23
  Speaker 5: you to buy the ticket, and we'll reimburse it, reimburse
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: you for it.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: I had once gone on a West Southwest flight and
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: this is the day's way. I weighed over three hundred
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: pounds and there were only there are very few seats
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: that were left, and there was a woman that weighed
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: about four hundred pounds sitting in a seat and I'm
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: three hundred pounds, and she took up one in three
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: quarter seat. And I went to the stewardess, female stewardess
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: and pointed, and they just started laughing. Everybody just started laughing,
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: and so they so, you were.
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: Three hundred pounds, she was four hundred pounds. You tried
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: to fat shamer.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: No, no, well everybody started laughing. I just started laughing
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: because it was just ridiculous. Yeah, you're right. I started
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: pointing at her and starting to laugh and say a
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: lot of pretzels going into her, I was.
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: Just oki doki.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: GLP one's going from you know, heavy set people on
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: flights to how to deal with it. Obviously a lot
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: of response, positively positive response to the GLP one medicines.
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: But now they're looking at another version.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: It's an experimental weight loss drug caused people with obesity
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: is SHD on average twenty eight percent of their body weight.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: And this is a huge step up in potency from
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: the existing crop of GLP one medications.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this looks like it's gone from golp one, which
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: is reasonably healthy to get your weight down and avert
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: diabetes right into dangerous, dangerous levels. I just get too thin.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: Well, in this case, maybe this is for people that
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: are much bigger. Obviously it would come with much more
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: supervision than the current golp ones. But patients on average
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: lost seventy pounds after eighty weeks at the highest dose.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: So they're looking at this stuff, and you know, they're
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: finding all kinds of other things that it's helping with addiction,
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: other addictions other than food, and it's an interesting class
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: of drugs.
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: I'll be curious to see where that goes.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's I think it's the magic bullet which they've
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: been looking for for so long in terms of weight loss,
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: it's pretty impressive stuff.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: Okay, on Neil, my turn, No.
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: Fun, Amy's got to do the next two?
• 22:57
  Speaker 5: No fun? Okay. Forty eight percent of Americans say their
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: lives are currently lacking in fun. Twelve percent say they
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: can't remember the last time they had a full free
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: day to just enjoy themselves. People who do make time
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: for fun say it reduces their stress, they feel more motivated,
• 23:18
  Speaker 5: and eighty nine percent say fun strengthens relationships. I think
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: it's true.
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: There's actually been an on wake up call this morning. Yeah,
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: there's no fun in having fun, Yes, there is, you
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: have fun? A Disney fun is way overrated.
• 23:32
  Speaker 5: It is not. It is you seriously, like the sitting
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: there like belly laughing with not rolling out your nose
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: with your best friends isn't like the best thing ever.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: No, it's just not running out my nose. That is
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: not connected to belly laughing. I don't laugh. I just got.
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: Laughing is the best.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: I heard it you talking about this earlier, and I
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: was like that, I'm with you just being idiots.
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you should hear the kno and show off the air.
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: Big dummies. We just make each other laugh. That's what
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: we do.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: Bro. Yeah, great fun laughing, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, it's
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: a lot of fun.
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, all right.
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: The other one limits. The Defense Department has declared its
• 24:16
  Speaker 5: press office is now a classified space and is inaccessible
• 24:20
  Speaker 5: to journalists. The acting Press Secretary for the Pentagon as
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: Joel Valdez. He confirmed it saying on X there was
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: nothing controversial about that, and it is being done because
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: now speech writers who use classified material are occupying the
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: press office, and because they're occupying the press office, the
• 24:40
  Speaker 5: press can't have access to it because then they'd see
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: classified information.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what a piece of work. Pete Hegseth is a
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: matter of fact. The story afterwards is another story of
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: Pete Hegseth.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: This is an interesting one indeed. So going through the
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: promotions list, which he has the right to do, I suppose,
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: and promotions kind of go down. They're selected by a
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: board of senior Navy admirals, right, so they send that
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: list to hag Seth, and then hag Seth apparently has
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: disproportionately targeted women and minority officers and blocked them from promotions.
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: That is, that is the accusation, Well some accusation.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: It happened, and this is a Secretary of Defense should
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: not get involved traditionally does not get involved in promotions,
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: follows recommendations, as Neil has said. And it's just he's
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: turning it around, I mean, just turning it all around.
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: No female officers were included in the new one star list,
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: despite the fact that women made up twenty one percent
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: of the active duty.
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: Maybe seventeen seventy six is about to eighty sixth. The
• 26:01
  Speaker 5: Trump administration has signaled that it's one point seven to
• 26:06
  Speaker 5: seven six billion dollar payout fund called the Anti Weaponization
• 26:10
  Speaker 5: Fund is on shaky ground. Republican lawmakers pushed the White
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: House to abandon the idea of reimbursing people who were
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: wronged by the Biden administration.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and and the problem is, oh, you talk about
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: the backlash on this one. Even Republicans are so offended
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: by this because who is open to getting money the
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: January sixth perpetrator of the overrunning of the Capitol.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: But again, why did Trump do this?
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: Because they were not criminals, they were patriots and that's
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: and they were held hostage, the ones who in fact
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: were convicted, So no surprise, and it's falling apart because
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: it's so offensive to so many about Republicans. Every Democrat,
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: of course, is going to vote against it, but just
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: even the Republicans are just stunned by this. It's falling
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: apart very very quickly. Okay, we're done with that. Coming
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: up today is primary election day. What to know who's
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: running and the importance, and we've got a couple of
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: races here that have national import we'll be back with
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: all of that. This is KFI AM six point forty.
