  Speaker 4: The other well, although you can do it arthroscopically, I
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: don't know about nice replacement. You can do that arthroscopically, yeah,
• 1:36

• 1:40
  Speaker 4: can do it outpatient. I think these days where you're

  Speaker 4: my closet.

• 3:27
  Speaker 4: And I understand the last part of it. As Anne
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: was saying, it was actually kind of neat too, with
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: messy crying, and I mean he was he was just
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: a messy when it was all over. That's so clever.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: Oh okay, we started with mister clever at work. Also,
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: that halftime show, which they have never done before, was tremendous.
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: I thought, yeah, I thought it was great too.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: That is a halftime show and that and for the
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: first time taking a well, first of all, they took
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: a page out of the Super Bowl with the halftime show.
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: They also took a page out of the US super
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: Bowl with rings. They now have created a championship ring,
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: which never happened before. But they actually hit you know,
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: that little tiny trophy that the World Cup Cup winner gets,
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: It doesn't seem very impressive. Now, the Stanley Cup. That
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: is an impressive piece of trophy. That's that what the
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: Stanley Cup. It's like it's given to the team keeps it. Yeah, yeah,
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: and they turn out and then they every team member
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: gets to take it home and they do things like,
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: you know, bathe their kids in it and use it
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: as a urinalal and serve it as a pipe.
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: I've had imis or out of the.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: The Stanley Cup at a private party.
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: All right, let's let's do it, guys. It is a
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: Monday morning, July twentieth. Lot's going on. The war continues,
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: but uh, I would say relatively good news that happened yesterday,
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: especially from Ispana. You are happy campers. Time for handle
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: on the news, Amy Neil and me lead story. Well,
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: Spain did it over Argentina and it wasn't even close.
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: It was one zero, It should have been ten zero.
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: Didn't you say Argentina was gonna win?
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: Yep, Argentina was favored. Actually to wait, I think no,
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: Spain favored. I think Spain was favored as a stronger team.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: But Argentina didn't even come to the table. I mean
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: they might as well have not shown up. How many
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: shots on goal? I think it turned out to be
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: what twelve thirteen?
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: Good? Two? No, that's for Argentina.
• 5:45
  Speaker 6: Argentina onl had two.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: Right, and then when it was Spain had what thirteen
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: fourteen shots on goal? It was not even close and
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: they had totally Spain totally dominated the game. Messi basically
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: was on the field, but in the stands for the
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: most of the game he might as well have been,
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: I mean, completely irrelevant. I got I think he got
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: what two touches on the ball?
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: Nothing? And so it was I thought it was a
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: pretty exciting game.
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: Do you watch the.
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: Game on Saturday, the third place game between.
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: Yes, that was a riffic. That was a game. You
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: wish that was the final, but so I watched and
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: a lot of people. Then we'll do a story a
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: little bit later on about what the World Cup did
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: for the United States. It turned the US into a
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: soccer loving country. It was all upside, all upside for
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: soccer foot the ball in the US. Oh yes, one
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: zero in extra time and I don't even know how
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: Argentina could stay stave off Spain. The miracle is they
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: did it that long and it was only one zero.
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: New ceasfire possibility. The US and Iran are moving closer
• 7:07
  Speaker 6: to an all out conflict as they exchange attacks and
• 7:11
  Speaker 6: civilian and military structures. The attacks are escalating. At least three,
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: possibly four US service members have been killed since the
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: combat resumed a week ago. Last night, they carried out
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: another round of strikes in and then Iran fired back there,
• 7:26
  Speaker 6: firing at like Bahrain and Kuwait. This morning, we talked
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: to Jordana Miller in Jerusalem and they said that she's
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: said that mediators have put out a plan for a
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: ten day ceasefire, which could potentially calm things down a
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: little bit.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't understand what's happening. There shouldn't be a
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: war at all here because Iran has been their military
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: has been decimated completely, where there's nothing left of their military.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: There's nothing left of their drone capability or their missile capability.
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: The Strait of horror moves is open pursuant to the administration. Uh,
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: and let's not forget that we control everything, and so therefore,
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: you know, why do we even report on a war
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: that doesn't exist. There's nothing happening. Oh and let's not
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: forget regime change. That happened too, as the president has announced,
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: we have regime change, and they didn't take back any
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: of it. They did not take back any of it.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: We still control the strait. The strait is still open.
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: Iran has no military capabilities. Regime change has been in effect.
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: Are they talking about the same thing?
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: They might know someone named regime Yeah, who has moved? Yeah,
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: you don't know. Yeah, all right, La was known for
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: its crack pipes. Cracked pipes.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Oh not strong, not bad, not bad. I pretty.
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: I do what I can for you. So not only
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: you've got a section of Sunset Boulevard remain closed Sunday,
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: and I know they've got at ton of people out
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: there working very hard to get that back up. And
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: this was all because of last Thursday, that big destructive
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: water main brink put a bunch one hundred and ten
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: year old pipe, put a bunch of water on the street,
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: in people's houses. And there's even you know, not only homes,
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: but there's restaurants and businesses that are closed indefinitely. It's
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: it's pretty horrible. But not only that, we had a
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: couple more, had a couple more not only West Hollywood
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: with those issues, but Venice and another in Hollywood. Some
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: have been repaired. There's one on Lincoln Boulevard that I
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: think happened Sunday morning. Crews are still working on. So
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: this is what happens when you have, you know, old
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: ass pipes that nobody has looked at. And it's way
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: more expensive for us to go back and try and
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: cram water back in the old ones instead of fixing
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: them the first time.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: But what do you mean, Yeah, but the cost, the
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: cost of replacing those old pipes are just completely astronomical.
• 10:12
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but you know what's more expensive.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Doing that's happening now?
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: They should combine everything that what they should do is
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: re route those pipes, keep those pipes open, no water
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: going through, put homeless people into those pipes, use them
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: for housing, and you've got to just the triple threat
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: is done.
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: Plug them with the homeless. Yes, yeah, Bill handle for mayor,
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: ladies and gentlemen.
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: Maybe background checks need to be beefed up. An ICE
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: agent connected to the fatal shooting of that man in
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: Maine once told a court that he had lingering cognitive
• 10:51
  Speaker 6: issues after he got a serious head injury. David Bruyette
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: said that the head injury results of from a steel
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: eyebeam falling on his head, and it was so debilitating
• 11:05
  Speaker 6: he couldn't get through a firefighting training course. He was
• 11:07
  Speaker 6: still feeling the effects years later. This information came out
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: when he filed a lawsuit in twenty twenty three against
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: the main community college system, saying he was significantly impaired
• 11:19
  Speaker 6: in his activities and is daily living. And then two
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: years later he's working as an ICE officer and he
• 11:26
  Speaker 6: was among the officers on scene in Biddeford, Maine after
• 11:29
  Speaker 6: that fatal ICE shooting on Monday. Not clear if he's
• 11:32
  Speaker 6: the guy who did the shooting, but he was there.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: Well, you would think that being hired by a federal agency,
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: they would do a just a minor background check, cursory
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: background check. In this case, it was a lawsuit filed
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: and there was my brain is fried.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: And he also was.
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: When he went into interview in him taking a page
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: out of the Wizard of Oz. If I only had
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: a brain, that it would have been a problem he
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: should have.
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: And then they said that ham a gun and a badge.
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's it's only had a brain in Maine and
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: it rained on.
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: On the plane.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, it's nice.
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: You know, it helps things when you just don't investigate
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: them and you don't deal with all those clumsy facts.
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: Federal agents around the country were told, apparently in some
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: sort of memo, that the FBI would no longer investigate
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: confrontations with immigration agents, so cases that sometimes yield evidence
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: that could be used to prosecute Department of Homeland Security
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: agents implicated and violent encounters. This is according to people
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: briefed on the decision. So FBI managers around the country
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: received this written notice informing them of the change on Thursday,
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: and the people that kind of leaked this information did
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: it under the condition of anonymity, and some the same day,
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: ice agents around the country were notified.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean, I think what's happening is the.
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: Investigation of federal agents is going to be limited. Let's
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: investigate them less during the course of these shootings or
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: any other kind of altercation like this. Yeah, well that's
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: the way we're going right now. At least some good news.
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: Diarrhea lettuce, well it's really not so.
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: You know that cyclospora that's made like sixteen hundred people
• 13:37
  Speaker 6: sick and they're having cases of explosive diarrhea. Well they
• 13:44
  Speaker 6: did a test on Taylor Farms lettuce and it turned
• 13:50
  Speaker 6: up positive for cyclospora. So we got the source right. Well,
• 13:53
  Speaker 6: not so quick because subsequent testing has found no evidence
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: of cyclospora. Still, Taylor Farms has recalled Iceberg lettuce source
• 14:04
  Speaker 6: from Central Mexico and removed all lettuce from US markets,
• 14:08
  Speaker 6: including apparently Taco Bell.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: It's surprising or not surprising.
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: Neil will tell you how much of our produce comes
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: from Mexico, and it is a lot.
• 14:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, considering that here in California we have some we
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: have pretty much more fertile land than most when it
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: comes to being able to grow crops right here. You'd
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: think we'd be our own supplier, but part of the system.
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: I suppose, all right, California passes. I love this. This
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: shows you the keen stupidity of politicians. So got high
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: temperatures going everywhere, right, some parts of California being baked
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: by those triple digits. Well, last week Gov. Gav knew
• 14:55
  Speaker 5: Some signed a law that will require very hard stance.
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: Here the State Board Education to consider teaching students about
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: the symptoms of heat illness in school. Now he signed
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: another one with a key deadline for this month, requires
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: school to come up with rules for outdoor activities when
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: there are extreme weather events like heat wave. All great,
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: these are low costs, don't cost anything really. However, experts
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: are going, hey, you know, if you really want to
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: make them safer, why don't you get them AC update
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: the AC that there's that they have shade structure and
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: funded health curriculum. Yeah, so I'm just to cast a
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: law that says you've got to teach them that heat
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: is hot.
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: Right now, there is one aspect of this that I
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: don't know if you have to teach kids because you've
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: got you know, teachers, I assume in adults around. But
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: one of the things about eat stroke, for example, is
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: that you stop sweating, and when it is though, I
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: mean you, that can lead very quickly to some very
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: serious consequences. But you're right. The bottom line is during
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: heat spells, it is hot outside. And so you know,
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: there you go.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: Thank you. Oh an Amy story.
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, So we have a Big Bear bald eagle update. Uh.
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: Social media has been buzzing because there is an eagle
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: in Big Bear that has been rescued by a wildlife
• 16:35
  Speaker 6: rescue group and everybody who's wondering who it is, they
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: do think it's Jackie. If Jackie and Shadow, the Big
• 16:42
  Speaker 6: Bear bald eagles that we've been following for a couple
• 16:44
  Speaker 6: of years and they have got their kids, Sandy and Luna.
• 16:47
  Speaker 6: They say that they don't know definitively that it's Jackie,
• 16:50
  Speaker 6: but they think it's probably her. They say that she
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: was seen on the ground near Dana Point Park. There's
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: lots of pictures on social media Thursday and Friday, and
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: then while on the ground, she was seen in a
• 17:02
  Speaker 6: fight with two subadult eagles. Because there's lots of eagles
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: flying around and Jackie in Shadow protect the nest area
• 17:09
  Speaker 6: so that Luna and Sandy can learn how to fish
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: and hunt all that kind of thing. So she apparently
• 17:16
  Speaker 6: was able to fight them off, but then she couldn't
• 17:20
  Speaker 6: fly away. So now again we don't know for sure
• 17:23
  Speaker 6: that it's Jackie, but they think it's Jackie. And she's
• 17:26
  Speaker 6: been taken in by la Keunty Parks and Recreation. Sandymus
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: wrapped her rescue and it's being cared for.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Oh, she's at a rehab center.
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: She is at a rehab center, so hopefully they'll get
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: her back and she'll be okay. We don't know yet.
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: We don't know how bad she may have been injured,
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: but they've got her.
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: That park is not far from the nest.
• 17:47
  Speaker 6: No, it's in fawn skin and that's where the nest is.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: And look at the irony here you go to the
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: eagles go to rehab and are no longer flying. People
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: like me went into rehab because.
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: We were flying, all right.
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: For the first time to a sitting vice president more
• 18:06
  Speaker 5: than one hundred and fifty years. A baby is born, JD.
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: Vance And how do you say his wife's names? Usha?
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: Usha Usha, pretty lady. They welcome to baby boy born
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: Sunday Alec Neil vance to ease, and that Neil, by
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: the way, joins the other siblings. You've got Ewan, Ewan nine,
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: Vivic six, and Marabelle four.
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: I wonder I think they're being raised a Catholic. What's
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: interesting is she is Muslim, I believe, and he is
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: of course, has converted to Catholicism. And he had said
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: that she is going to be Catholic, although she never
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: said a word about that. So that is I think
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: that's disappeared. She's in She's Hindu, right, I think she
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: is Hindu. You're right, I think she is Hindu.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: And so he has a picture of Jesus. She has
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: a picture of an elephant with eight arms right next
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: to I am and at all. It's a very interesting
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: religious concept when you go to their house.
• 19:15
  Speaker 6: Homer's a hit. The Odyssey is off to an epic
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: start at the box office. It brought in one hundred
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: and twenty four point five million dollars domestically and globally.
• 19:26
  Speaker 6: The total is two hundred and sixty four point one
• 19:28
  Speaker 6: million in its opening weekend, which is a big deal
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: because it's more than or. It's almost three hours long
• 19:34
  Speaker 6: and it's not part of a major franchise.
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's gonna be pretty terrific. I mean the no,
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: we can't get tickets. I want to go and watch
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: it in imax. And if you read about or watch
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: videos about this film Christopher Nolan, who is a director,
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: it's the first film that has been filmed entirely in
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: seventy milimeter and it is even the backstory is fascinating.
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: In the meantime, it's supposed to be absolute incredible.
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: You heard what those seventy millimeter cameras sound like. They
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: can't use the audio.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: They're neither. They're loud.
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, they are loud. It's really really weird.
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: I don't know. I'm an iliad guy. I you know,
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: I thought they should have put the iliad out first.
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: But that's me.
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: Hello, Yeah, i know I'm wrong.
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: Just listening, Okay, all right, Disneyland.
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: Everybody talks about them raising prices on tickets. Well, now
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: it is as it normally is. In July is usually
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: when they raise the prices of food. But they've got
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: a per item increase range anywhere between one point five
• 20:41
  Speaker 5: and twenty three percent, and a lot of these are yes,
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: there's like eight hundred items across one hundred and seventy
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: eight dining locations there Disneyland at Disney California Adventure. The
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: price achs hikes are really going to hit on some
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: of the most popular things churros, foodles, popcorn, caramel popcorn,
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: even seventy cent increase on vanilla soft served, so you're
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: getting fifty cent increases on some things here. Some things
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: get a buck, like pizza slices and a three pack
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: of beignets or what I like to call them begnet.
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: No bignets are. They do a fabulous job with bignets.
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: I mean, some of the best out there are best
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: out of Old Orleans. But it's sent Yeah, I mean
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: the one point five is a percent isn't bad, but
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: twenty three percent it's expensive. You know, Disneyland has become
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: an explosive, expensive place to eat. Although the food is
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: certainly better than it was twenty years ago, wasn't a
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: huge phenomenal.
• 21:41
  Speaker 5: Very very good. They've tuned it up big time.
• 21:45
  Speaker 6: Got a whale of a rescue going on twenty eight.
• 21:48
  Speaker 6: Beluga whales are going to be relocated from a theme
• 21:53
  Speaker 6: park in Canada that's shut down in twenty twenty four.
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: They're being sent to aquariums across the US and might
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: even go to Spain for a couple of them. So
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: the Marine land closed down but held on to the whales,
• 22:10
  Speaker 6: and now it says it can't continue to care for them,
• 22:12
  Speaker 6: and he even was talking about euthanizing them. But some
• 22:17
  Speaker 6: other places have stepped up and stepped forward and they're
• 22:20
  Speaker 6: going to take them. So SeaWorld, San Antonio and San
• 22:22
  Speaker 6: Diego are getting some of them. The Georgia Aquarium, the
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: Shed Aquarium in Chicago are all getting some of them.
• 22:28
  Speaker 6: So twenty eight beluga whales are getting a new home
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: and have a new lease on life.
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Belugas are just great. They have that great smile
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: and they are.
• 22:39
  Speaker 5: Very neat whales wonderful conversationalist, good dancers.
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: Good dancers, very tasty when barbecued correctly. I have had whale,
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: and it is you have to. It's very hard to
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: cook whale well. I will do a whale to eat.
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: It's like fat. There's no fat well outside. You don't
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: eat the blubber. That's the whole point. The blubber is
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: all on the outside, so the meat itself has virtually
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: no fat, which is why it's so difficult to cook,
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: because in one millisecond you overcook it.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: It's like ostrich meat, very difficult to cook. Well, I
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: mean it's whale.
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: You eat whale in Norway. You eat whale at my
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: house when we can sneak some in. There's ue whale
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: in Japan. You eat whale in Norway because they never
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: sign on the International Whaling Agreement. You know, every country
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: in the world is sign on to whaling agreements, even Uruguay,
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: which is completely landlocked, but certainly not Norway or Japan. Anyway,
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: Moving on.
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: Well, everybody screams for ice cream, especially now, and it's
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: the one thing that is falling in price. Butterfat is
• 23:51
  Speaker 5: actually bringing the relief that we are seeing now monetarily,
• 23:55
  Speaker 5: so summer heats going up. The average price of a
• 23:59
  Speaker 5: half gallon of ice cream in the container in the
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: US is below six dollars last month, same time last year,
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: averaged around the past two years, actually averaged around six
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: twenty six per container.
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I've always a confused butter and butter fat because
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: when you look at a cube of butter, it's one
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: hundred percent butterfat. And I always thought that butter and
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: butterfat were one and the same thing. I guess they're not,
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: are they?
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: Oh you can separate them. Yeah, that's what like if
• 24:32
  Speaker 5: you have gh that's removed, it's clarified butter, and you're
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: removing the butterfat from the butter. Got it.
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: You're a gee? I am no, I was talking to cono.
• 24:43
  Speaker 6: Oh, dummy, A penny for your thoughts, maybe all it's worth.
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: Eight months ago, the US minted its last penny. The
• 24:57
  Speaker 6: Common Sense Act formally ends the reduction of the penny,
• 25:01
  Speaker 6: and it also is supposed to address how retailers are
• 25:05
  Speaker 6: going to give you change because they can't give you
• 25:08
  Speaker 6: pennies back or they won't be able to once the
• 25:10
  Speaker 6: pennies get out of circulation. And a lot of retailers
• 25:13
  Speaker 6: are having problems with it because if they round up
• 25:16
  Speaker 6: then people might sue them, and so they're trying to figure.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: Out how to pay me I was supposed to get.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: I paid for something.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: I was supposed to get eighteen dollars and two cents change,
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: and I got eighteen dollars and a nickel back. Oh
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: yeah that was that was a windfall and going, hmmm,
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: penny issue. So you're right, it's going to be a
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: big problem. And the easiest way of doing it is
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: you figure out at tax and tell me.
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: There's no algorithms to do this. You have a.
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: Product for sale, it is priced at exactly where it
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: would turn out to be with no pennies.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: So that works. That's an easy way of doing it.
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: All right, Do you want to finish with this?
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: No?
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: No, go, Yeah, let's finish with it, all right, So
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: let's brew it in the United States, so says the teamsters.
• 26:08
  Speaker 5: They're targeting Mexican beers like Modello, which is a fantastic
• 26:12
  Speaker 5: beer by the way, Corona, but they are pushing to
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: get these Mexican made beers here in the United States.
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: So not only does Trump want these tariffs, but now teamsters.
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, they want labor. Why is it in Mexico
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: because of the Mexican beer. I guess you can have
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: Mexican beer in the United States. I think has a
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: plant in the US.
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: Well, yeah, you're you're just doing the recipe, yeah, pretty much.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: All right, I think we're done. Guys, Do we have
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: one more left?
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: Nah?
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: We don't. Yeah.
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: Real quickly, California forest service workers were taking hostage. They
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: were held they were released, so CA camping was over. Okay,
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: so much for the news, lesip one coming up, the
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: economic boost of the World Cup Games. At first it
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: was now we're not doing so well. Boy, what a comeback.
