  Speaker 2: my annual physical and when I asked for the digital exam,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: the doctor said, no, we don't do that anymore. And
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: I said, yeah, but I was looking forward to it,

• 4:38
  Speaker 2: there it was physical exam with a happy face icon.

  Speaker 2: few people that really enjoyed that and do the exam.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: And he would have me take my pants off. Really weird, uh,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: the doctor? And I said, so where do I put this?

  Speaker 2: He said, on the peg over there next to my pants?
• 5:13

• 5:45
  Speaker 2: It's a hump day Wednesday in the middle of the week,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: which means we have more commercials than usual. Well, wait
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: a minute, we always have more commercials than usual, don't
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: we Okay, let's do it. It's time for Handle on
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: the News with Amy Neil and me lead story. Well,
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: there is yet another accuser that has come forward accusing
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Eric Swallwell, actually I think it's out and out rape
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: on this one, accusing him in twenty eighteen of drugging
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: her and raping her. She was at a press conference
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: and she said she delayed coming forward sooner because well,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: because of his political power. And she was represented by
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Lisa Bloom. You know Lisa bloom is by the way.
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: Sure she's the daughter Gloria al Red. Yeah yeah, yeah,
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: and in her own right, quite an attorney.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, almost represented or tried to represent Weinstein. Yeah, no,
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: he is, No, she's the real thing. There's no real thing.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: Tried to represent Weinstein, Yeah, well close, that's what lawyers do,
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: started to and her mom looked at her and said,
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: what the f are you doing?
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it's a it's a family thing, especially since
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Gloria Allread uh of course, or her reputation was built
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: on representing women, and if you look at her biography,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: she Gloria Allread. You talk about the real thing, man,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: She really walks the walk. She started right out of
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: law school women. I mean, uh, you know what, I
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: accused her for many years of doing that, which I
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: think she is anyway, but uh, it's it was not
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: for political convenience. I mean, she truly believes in what
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: she does and was doing what she did at of
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: when it wasn't popular. At least she's very consistent. Okay,
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: So anyway, we're going to talk more about that.
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: But the bottom line at eight o'clock, go to talk
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: about how, why and how Swallowell became such a major
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: figure and became atally the front runner or a front
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: runner for the governorship and is his fall big time?
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: And I'll talk more about that coming up at eight.
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: Time to talk some more. A new round of in
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: person talks between the US and Iran could be coming
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: as early as this week. Talks over the weekend led
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: by Vice President in Vance in Pakistan failed to reach
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: a piece deal by the end of the talks. The
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: big sticking points getting the Straight of Hormuz reopened for
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: free flowing traffic, and of course, Around's nuclear capability, which
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: around so far as saying, nat we can enrich if
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: we want to.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: We have the right to. Yeah, So we don't know
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: really what is being what the hope is and what
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Trump wants. Is it opening the strait?
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Is it the nuclear power? Which one is more important
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: because he has talked about both of them. For example,
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: all he was interested in was a strait being opened,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: and then lately is all we're interested in is making
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: sure that Iran does not have nuclear capabilities, should never
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: have the atomic bomb, should never have a nuclear weapon
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: of some kind. And so regime change is out of
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: the question, although the President has said there is regime
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: change in Iran. So a lot of it is very confusing,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: and the world is spinning on this one. I mean
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: the you know, it's not just Donald Trump the individual
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: being a little weird. It's Donald Trump, the president of
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: the United States, stretching the limits of the powers of
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: the presidency of the United States. No small deal.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: You act like he's not a doctor. He's going to
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: heal things. You're bugging me with that.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: Lebanon and Israel, this is quite historic. They held their
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: first direct diplomatic talks in decades yesterday.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: They're in Washington.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: More than a month of war between Israel and Iran
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: at Hesbelah, of course, the militant group there, and our
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: very own US Secretary of State Marc or Rubio defined
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: it just as that a historic opportunity, but no breakthrough
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: agreement would happen right away.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: Going to take that. Yeah, But interestingly enough, look who's
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: talking the government of Lebanon with the United States. The
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: actual enemy that is fighting Israel. I mean the government
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: of Israel and the government of Lebanon. They're not talking
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: to Hesbelah and Hezbollah. Is who the organization that is
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: fighting Israel. They're the ones that launched the missiles on
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: the rockets against Israel when the invasion of Iraq or
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: when Donald Trump started bombing Iraq or Iran, Iran, I'm sorry,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: and it was strictly in solidarity. I mean, Israel didn't
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: have a beef against Lebanon and just basically said, we're
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: going after Iran. And that's it. You have Hebolah, which
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: owns the lower third, controls the lower third of Lebanon. Hezbolah,
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: they're not coming to the table, and they're the ones
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: that are doing the fighting, and the government of Lebanon
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: is not involved. And so they're speaking, they're talking peace,
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: some kind of an agreement, and Hebolah saying, you're dreaming.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: So this doesn't make a lot of sense on its face.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: They're talking to the wrong people, and the wrong people
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: have all a control the war itself. So it's I
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: don't get it, you know. To me, it's just a
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: pr move. It doesn't make any sense. I guess the
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: big deal is that Lebanon and Israel are looking directly
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: at each other eating eating Lama.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: June's Lama june.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: It is Lama june is a Lebanese dish that is
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: sort of pizzalike, but it has really nice spices on it,
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: meats and things like that. That's lamajoun.
• 12:00
  Speaker 7: Sounds delicious, It is delicious. Comes to Elebanon, it is
• 12:03
  Speaker 7: very good, all right. A top US lawmaker here in
• 12:07
  Speaker 7: the US is calling for FIFA to pay for World
• 12:12
  Speaker 7: Cup public transportation costs. So there is the local authorities
• 12:17
  Speaker 7: there in New Jersey are planning massive price hikes during
• 12:21
  Speaker 7: the tournament.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: And when I say massive.
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: I mean that they are going to charge fans more
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: than one hundred dollars for tickets from Penn Station in
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: Manhattan to MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. A return ticket
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: normally for that journey normally costs twelve dollars and ninety cents.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: It will be out one hundred dollars. That's two ways.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: That's there and back thirteen bucks and now one hundred dollars.
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: I believe they're doing that for the public transportation to
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: SOFI too during the World Cup. So their rates are
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: crazy high.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: But so now you've got Now you've got Chuck Schumer,
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: the Senate minority leader. He's a Democrat set on exit.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: The governing body of football, which stands to earn eleven
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: billion from the tournament, should foot the bill for transportation costs.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: Why do they just not gouge? Uh huh, good point,
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: it's not very it not very Why should they not gouge?
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: Just correct, even though they are and then yeah sarcasm, Yeah,
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: I mean the tickets are insane. I mean, we'll be
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: talking more about the tickets for the games. I can't
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: even imagine what the final is going to be, The
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: Finals New Jersey, I think, if I'm not mistaken, and
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: ah man, I can't wait to see what those tickets
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: are going to cost. Yeah.
• 13:50
  Speaker 6: Oops.
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: A grand jury is indicted a doctor in Florida on
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: manslaughter charges because they say he removed patient's liver instead
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: of his spleen.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: So that's a problem.
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: That's that's a big Isn't a spleen a little thing?
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: Maybe?
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: You compare your livery Yeah, I think so. I think
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: the spleen is no big deal.
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: And it's he was supposed to be getting a laparoscopic splenecto.
• 14:18
  Speaker 6: Me.
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: That's just you know, three little holes that they puncture in,
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: go in with and pull stuff out. But the guy
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: removed the victim's liver instead, obviously catastrophic blood life loss
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: and the guy died.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, bad doctor to go to the liver is huge, yep,
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: it is doctor Schofnovski.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: Well he's got some spleening to do.
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: Not bad, everybody, no, not bada try no, don't shine
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: bomb uh President Claudia's shine Bomb just yesterday ordered Mexican
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: diplomats to set up a scrutiny of US detention centers.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: Why because Mexican nationals are being held for deportation and
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: they're dying. I guess there are some deaths. I find
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: it ironic that Mexican would complain about American prisons, But
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: if this is happening, it should be.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: A little bit into Yeah, this is an American prisons,
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: this is US detention centers for illegal migrants. And normally
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: it used to be in this case that the Council
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: of Officials once a week would go and check on
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Mexican nationals who were in custody federal custody. Now they're
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: going to do it every day because the controversy of
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: these people dying in custody. And the other thing is
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: most of these people are not in federal facilities. They're
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: in private facilities that have contracts with the federal government
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: because there's just too many of them. There aren't enough
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: federal facilities out there. Okay, one more and then we'll
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: take a break.
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: Let's get something straight. Hiking trails are for hikers. Equestrian
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: trails are for horses. An Lacity council panel is apparently
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: trying to make that official and is trying to ban
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: e bikes from city hiking and equestrian trails. So it's
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: moved on to a transportation committee and then would go
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: before the full council if it gets approved.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you would wonder how is it possible that bikes
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: are not allowed but e bikes are well, because it's
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: sort of a gray area at this point, they have
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: not yet passed laws relating to e bikes and so
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: a lot of different laws are relating to e bikes
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: that they just don't get. The law doesn't catch up
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: with what's going on technologically speaking. You know what screws
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: it up.
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: One thing, pedals, The pedals that they put on these
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: things end up changing or causing a little dip in
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: the law, a little loophole that allows them leeway and
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: they shouldn't they're a motor vehicle. Yeah, well they're straightening
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: that out.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: There is just as simply something that just fell through
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: the cracks, which they're going to strike it out.
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: So you've been hearing about the former UCLA guynecologist. His
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: name is James Heaps, seventy years old, He pleaded guilty
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: of thirteen felonies, including multiple counts of sexual penetration of
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: an unconscious person, and must register as a sex offender
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: for life. This all went down yesterday, and he apparently
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: sexually abused five of his patients during examinations. He was
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: once a renowned cancer experto sentenced to eleven years. And
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: I'm looking through this bill, and isn't there special circumstance
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: with like law enforcement where it's under the color of authority.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: No, he not's not under the color of authority. No,
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: that's law enforcement. I get it.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. There's nothing like that. No, there's
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: nothing in the law.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: There's nothing in the law that a physician is considered
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: differently than just someone who sexually abuses someone. But listen,
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: he got eleven years. He's been in jail since twenty
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: twenty two. I mean, he had getting out, And you think.
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: There should be something different when we are taught to
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: trust them and it's a different circuit.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't have a problem with that. I don't
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: UCLA paid seven hundred million dollars to settle the civil lawsuits.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: I mean the amount of money that's being paid off
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: I think Michigan University of Michigan paid over a billion
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: dollars to settle its lawsuits s C. I think paid
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: certainly in the hundreds of millions of dollars. I mean,
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: this is really crazy stuff. I mean, these doctors, there
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: aren't many of them. I mean, obviously there are a
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: lot of doctors out there, and this is a very small, small,
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: tiny number. But Mann does it hit the University's hard? Oh,
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Disney is being hit hard. Abe.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: Not the happiest place on earth for workers today. The
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: Walt Disney Company has begun layoffs. They started yesterday and
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: will ripple across Disney's TV and movie studios, ESPN, It's
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: product and technology unit, corporate functions, and marketing. A thousand
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: people are losing jobs.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's tough, and usually Disney. I don't look at
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: Disney as laying people off.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: It's just it happens every now and again.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Well, so you know Disneyland, which we're going to go
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: to on Monday, and looks like you're going to have
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: to do the singing of Yoho Yoho by yourself. There
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: won't be anybody to help you do that. I didn't work, okay, Amy,
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: Sometimes they work. Sometimes they don't. Okay, that one didn't,
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: I get it back. We go right, proctology joke, All.
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: Right, another one bites the dust here in beautiful California.
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: One of the most this is kind of ironic, actually,
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: one of the most influential homebuilders, KB Homes. We've all
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: seen their signs out in front of new construction. They're
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: relocating their headquarters out of state. They'll become the latest
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: type profile firm to do so. They're moving to Arizona,
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: which tracks La has been their base since nineteen sixty three,
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: all those sprawling suburbs and that everybody loves so much.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: Phoenix is going to be their new home starting in
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: the spring of twenty twenty seven.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: Eli broad Broad, one of the two founders of KB Homes,
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: has been an enormous philanthropist here in the city of
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: Los Angeles with MoMA and are particularly art in a
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: big way art museums. And the question is how many
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: people working at the headquarters are leaving and how much
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: money did KB home pay in taxes? Now they're moving
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: because of though it's certainly because of the taxes and
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: just how difficult it is to to build. But they well,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: you know, they still build in southern California. Yeah, but
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: they're land.
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: They want to be somewhere where housing is more affordable
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: for their employees and the like.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's their employees. I mean obviously the projects
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: that they're building, you know, higher enormous numbers of people. Oh.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: Something that we that I think we're going to talk
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: about with Jim.
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this sounds fun. A drug resistant diarrhea causing superbug.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: Wow, what is bill handle?
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: For five hundred alex?
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: Infections of this drug resistant strain of shigella are up
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: eight and a half percent from twenty eleven to twenty
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: twenty three. Officials say that increase poses a public health
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: threat because Shagela is spread easily and this one antibiotics
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: don't work against it, there's no real treatment for.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: It, sexual contact, contaminated food and water. And then the
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: one that I look at and you go, really fecal
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: oral transmission. Yeah, I'm going to talk to Jim about
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: how that works. That's eighth me up, No, maybe maybe,
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: And people that the fact that Neil even knows what
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: that is says something about Neil. Yeah. Yeah, you can
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: look that one Upay.
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: Come from picking up a big chunk of ice that fell.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Yes, it does, Yes, No, it absolutely does. Have we
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: gone through every single story, which we never do.
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: Well, I think Anne, in her wisdom, gave us a
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: little breathing room with the shagella story, knowing what you
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: want to talk about.
• 23:13
  Speaker 7: It a lot.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, I think so, because it's such a weird one.
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: We're going to talk to Jim about that later on.
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: What showed cases were predominantly non Hispanic white men.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: Well, that's interesting, Okay. Historically the US.
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: Illness that comes from shagella infections primary affected weight primarily
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: affected children. But the data from twenty sixteen to twenty
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: twenty three in the latest report showed cases were predominantly
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: non Hispanic white men.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And if it's children, obviously sexual contact is off
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: the table. Well, yeah, a couple of but contaminated food
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: and water that happens all the time, you know, particularly
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: when you're talking about salmonella. You talk about here dates. Well,
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's it's a foreign disease. It's not
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: like you know, marball or what's what's the word I'm
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: looking for? Yeah, exactly where you have various diseases that
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: come out of Mexico or come out of Africa, you know,
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: like AIDS, like HIV with monkeys, you know, having sex
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: with monkeys.
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: That's not where it came from.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: Well, first of all, this whole issue of value judgment
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: of having sex with monkeys being negative. Let's you know,
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: let's look at both sides of the coin on that one.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: Everybody is so one sided on that. Are you on
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: this one for the side of sex with monkeys? Well, no,
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: it's sexual freedom. It's the First Amendment issue. Let me alone. Okay,
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: all right, We're we're done. That's it, guys, we're done.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: Coming up a move by the Department of Justice and
• 25:06
