  Speaker 2: And I have, by the way, my first, my very
• 1:27

• 1:29
  Speaker 2: America ship. Yeah, and so I'm sorry. Yeah, I mean
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: they're pretty good. And this is the way it works.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: I mean, there's no racism aboard these ships. Right, it's
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: a Zandam or the Hall of America is Dutch, so
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: the officers are all Dutch, the entertainment is all American,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: and the manual labor is all Indonesian. Okay, Filipinos, right,
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: anything in the Filipino the office, well, I don't think
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: there's any Filipino ship or ship line out there, but
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: French lines. Officers are all French. The entertainment is always
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: American because Americans cruise more than anybody else. And then
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: the staff, the clean up staff, the cooks, etc. Are
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: all insert name of major ethnic group that is in
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: that country. The striations are I mean, it is so
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: clear cut. It's like you know you make those jello
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: moles where you have different colors of jello. Where green
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: that's the seventies? Yes, different. Yes, that is what cruise
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: ships personnel are like, or how they're dispersed among the ships.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: Would you ever do one of those around the world
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: or you know, I was thinking about that.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: I would say, I mean they're pretty pricey. I mean
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: they run the cheapest you can do them is probably
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: sixty sixty seventy thousand dollars. But you're on the ship
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: ninety days or one hundred or one hundred and five days.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: That's a long time to be on the ship. And
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: unless you're willing to spend a couple of one hundred
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: thousand dollars, Uh, you know that's it gets pretty cramped
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: for a very long time. Now. It's a it's a
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: uh definitely is a bucket list where some people will
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: say when I retire, I'm going to take a chunk
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: out of my retirement and I'm going and uh, there's
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: some people do there's I was on a trip. I
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: was on a ship I remember which one. Maybe it
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: was a Regent ship where uh, there was a couple
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: from Beverly Hills that lived on the ship, lived on
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: it and it was actually cheaper to live on the
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: ship than to live at home.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: That's what That's what I'm hearing is that, Yeah, but.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: It's a one but it's a one room. It is
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: a room. It's a well yeah, but you're living in
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: one room in a city.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Not when I'm partying, do get a little tired?
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: I mean it's the same. Yeah, I mean, the same
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: menu goes around and around, right, enough of that. Amy,
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Hi Bill, Hi there, and good morning, good morning,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: and Cono there you are, good morning. And there's a
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: lovely Neil still with still with his background of Amy
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: with shadow and boxer or whatever.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: That lovely picture of Amy. I thought it'd be nice
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: to have over my shoulder.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Yep, all right, you guys ready to do it. We've
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: got a how unusual do we have a fair amount
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: talk about? Oh? You bet you? It's time for handle
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: on the news and of course, oh my goodness with Amy,
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Neil and me, and what a shocker is it about
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump? It is? Okay, So yesterday, Donald Trump is
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: in the middle of an interview with former FBI director
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: Dan Bongino, who left resigned as posts in December and
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: return to his podcast career. So he's being interviewed. Trump
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: is being interviewed by Bongino or Bongino and things Bongino
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: and out of the blue. And of course he's fixated
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: with the twenty twenty election that has not stopped. I mean,
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: it's like the most important thing in life to him.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: And he called on Republicans to take over and nationalize
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: the voting, put it into Republican hands, take it away
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: from the states, and certainly take it away from the Democrats,
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: where only the Republicans will determine how the voting goes
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: during the twenty twenty six mid terms. And you know,
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: he told Bongino, it's amazing the Republicans aren't tougher on.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: And he's talking about the alleged voting inaccuracies, non citizen
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: voting that improperly influenced election outcomes. Because all illegal migrants
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: are Democrats. There's no such saying as an illegal migrant
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: who is a Republican, of course, and he only wants
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: those states. He only wants those states that went to
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Joe Biden. The rest of them don't need the Republican help.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Haven't We had.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: Studies that have shown that any of that kind of
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: interference is minuscule.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, there is no widespread fraud at all at all.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: There isn't any competing studies that have said no, it's
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: all the studies have come bined and said, I'm not
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: a big fan of not showing your ID at the voting.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: Oh me neither. I think it's it turns out that
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: all reports are saying you know what, widespread fraud does
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: not take place in any case. So here's the problem.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Any other president saying this, of course we would all
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: reel and go, oh my god, how crazy it is.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: The problem with Donald Trump is there is I think
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: a good chance that he will issue an executive order
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: saying that states now no longer control their elections. It
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: is now in the hands of Congress, which, by the way,
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: of course the Constitution. But let me also tell you
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: what he's done. He, by executive order has said that
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: birthrights citizenship doesn't exist anymore. And that is a straight
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: out in the Fourteenth Amendment. People that are born in
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: the United States are citizens. Thank you.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: You can.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: It's not constitutional, but the Supreme Court is listening to
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: it did bring it up to hear it, which I
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: don't understand. So let's say issues an executive order that
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: says Congress shall take over all elections, and only Republicans,
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: by the way, can do this. Democrats are not allowed
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: to take over elections. Only Republicans can do it because
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: because Congress is in the Republican what he's actually saying
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: is since Republicans control. This is all anticipation in the
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: midterm of which he and others are thinking it may
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: be a wipeout. If there were today, the Republicans would
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: get nailed because of the cost of living, because of immigration,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: because of everything that Trump promised to do he is
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: not doing, and everything he promised not to do he
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: is doing so well, it's going to go no place.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: But look at this. Normally we would talk about the
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: protests in Minneapolis, right, So he comes up with this
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: and all of a sudden this becomes a lead story.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: And does he what a job he does of deflecting
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: because a lot of people are arguing that's all he's doing,
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: is just deflecting. Hey, look over here. Nothing on my
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: sleeve is sleight of hand. Don't look at my left hand.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: Look what my right hand is doing.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: I thought he didn't want us to look at his hands.
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: Well, it's yeah. If he supplants his hand with someone
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: else's hand, takes it out of your pocket and now
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: let's just move on.
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: The medical examiner has ruled Alex Pretty's death in Minneapolis
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: was a homicide. Of course, Alex Predi was the guy
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: shot by Department of Homeland Security agents in Minnesota, and
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: the homicide ruling typically triggers an investigation into the death
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: that will aim to determine whether the killing was justified
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: or not.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, now there's a homicide just means a killing of
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: a person by another.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: It's almost it's a weird actually it's actually written story.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Actually it well, actually it isn't because I'll tell you why.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: One of the defense arguments, and this was made in
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: the Derek Chauvin case, is that George Floyd did not
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: die of exphyxiation. What he died of complications from his
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: medical condition, and that was really the cause of death.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: I get that in that about that here is not yet,
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: not yet, they're waiting for the autopsy. You and they're
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: going to say, oh, it wasn't there bullets that shot him,
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: the twelve bullets that went through his heart. It was right,
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: it was the pre existing conditions that he had. That's
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: what did it. So I can see that. But there's
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: going to course the autopsy says, oh, yeah, he was
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: shot fifteen times.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: Most people don't know what that word means and they think, oh,
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: see it was murder.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: Now, yeah, murder is murder. Yeah, But you can have
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: a homicide justifiable for example, self defense totally justifiable, and
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: it's still the killing of a person by another, All right.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: This is a no brainer. It seems that effective. Immediately
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: we are told by Gnome that all of the ICE
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: agents and the federal agents in Minneapolis will be wearing body.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: Cameras on them when they're out in.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: The field there.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: This will go and expand nationwide as well. But they're
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: going to rapidly acquire these and deploy the body cams.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: And the true believers on the left and the right
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: won't care, but maybe some people in the middle will
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: appreciate the information.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Well, this is how you see the administration back backing
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: down on huge mistakes that are made. Christinoman will no
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: longer say that that Good and Prettie were terrorists, domestic terrorists,
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: and we're there to massacre officers ICE officers, and we're
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: there to do as much damage as it can in
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: the United States. That's off the table now. It never
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: came back and said we were wrong, or g I misspoke,
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: or maybe that was the just crazy stuff. So instead
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: what they're doing is, okay, we're going to take we'll
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: do batty cams. And then you hear from the White
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: House we're going to take ICE officers off the streets,
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: and you're going to see them backing down because they've
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: gone so over the top with this and this, and
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: the government the shutdown is based on. This is based
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: on what immigration authorities are doing, and you're going to
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: see a change. But you're never going to hear them
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: admit any wrongdoing ever. And you're right, the MAGA supporters
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: doesn't even matter. And I was thinking that if literally
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: a group of ICE agents were to shoot point blank
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: into a crowd and they said, well, I thought someone
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: was reaching for a gun on his waist and therefore
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: self defense, they would still say absolutely and in.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: All balance, if someone was to let's say, say come
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: at me, come at me, and then drive over them
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: with a car. Right, so they were going to get milk.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: For their fans. Yes, that's correct, that's correct. The only
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: problem is is that the MAGA supporters have their guy
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: in power to chee okay, yeah, and absolutely right, sir.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: The clock is ticking to find Savannah's mom, and we've
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: got some new information about that. Of course, we're talking
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: about today co anchor Savannah Guthrie's mom, who has been
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: missing since Saturday night. Apparently that was the last time
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: she was seen at her house in Arizona. And now
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: we're hearing from the Pima County Sheriff that blood was
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: found in the home. Earlier, they said that it appears
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: the mother had been taken from her.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Home, probably on Saturday night dead.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: Oh well, that's horrible, it's true.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that part is no one knows. I mean,
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: that one is really weird.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: If they were for money, you'd think something would have
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: been said by now, like if call would have been
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: made saying, hey, give us money or whatever.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're play and the sheriff's office is completely perplexed
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: as to why. And it's a crime scene, which means
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: that I had to find blood, and there was those
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: signs of a struggle. We know that, and that she
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: is on medication that she needs daily otherwise, see it's
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: life threatening. I'm assuming it's diabetes medication, Sincerlin. And so
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: I woke up this morning, My God, NBC the Today Show,
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: and then of course I made the joke that both
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: Amy and Neil said, I am not allowed to make
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: cono you're laughing, because I don't know if you were
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: going in the same direction I was along.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: Oh, okay, walking, we're walking alrighty did it? Okay, billery
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: are speaking of backing down, are reversing? I love editorializing
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: in stories. It's written. It's a remarkable reversal for the former.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: As opposed to just a reversal.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just a reversal, people, it's a reversal.
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: Okay. They looked, they looked at all the information. They said, listen,
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: we're gonna have to do this. So the former president
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: and Secretary of State last month, we know they were defying.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: The committee issued subpoenas well. A spokesperson for Bill Clinton
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: said in a statement on social media. Of course the
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: former first couple looks forward, just setting a precedent.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because they were looking at it. They were looking
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: at a contempt citation, and they were going to get it.
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: They were going to vote on it tomorrow, I think.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: And they and it would have gone it would it
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: would have gone it?
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: What Wait, what's the meaning of it?
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Contempt?
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: They contemp you because it Oh yeah, yeah, what is
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: the meaning of is is? Yes? Yes? Depends on what
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: is it? Nobody else? Oh, there have been tons of
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: people are being called. They're just a way way at
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: the top of the heap. In terms, there are so
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: many political Oh yeah, there is a big one. It's
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: one too, Yeah, it's a huge one. And here is
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: what happens. All these committees are chaired by Republicans, every
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: one of them, because that's just the way government works.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: And when a Democrat Congress comes in, all the House
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: committees will be chaired by Democrats. Uh. Again, that's the
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: way it works.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: And documents they have them in Uh oh yeah, but
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: you know these what ends up happening with these committee
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: hearings they have they're quote investigative committees.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: That's what they are defined as. There's nothing investigative about
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: any of these. It's simply making getting in front of
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: the camera and doing your spiel.
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: Lets Obama had this, Biden had this. If there was anything,
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: that would have been the perfect thing to come out
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: with and say, listen, look at this picture. This is
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: not the person you want. Yeah, it's I mean, really,
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: if there was the all I've seen is ai stuff
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: the uh you know, which is the which is out there,
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: which makes it a little more complicated.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you one thing. You've seen this President Obama
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: and Biden. Philosophically, there's no issue there on opposite sides
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: it's just that Obama and Biden wouldn't order Congress to
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: do uh what No, Trump is ordering. And so what
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: happens is there make life miserable for Clinton? What are
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: they going to get out of Clinton appearing in front
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: of the committee that has the information has already come out.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: Yes I knew him, Yes I knew him. Here are
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: your pictures? Well they've already been made public. Explain this
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: because I don't remember us twenty two years ago. Yes,
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: I think it was at a party. How's that for investigation?
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: And it really is about the Republicans saying you, the
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: Democrats are horrible, terrible, the worst presidency in history. And
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: excuse me, that's the Republicans and then the Democrats when
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: they do their questioning, it's under the great leadership of
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: President Bill Clinton. Look how great we did as a country.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: That's both pigs exactly. Either side is going to come
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: out Clinton.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: The only way, Yeah, the only way you can make
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: these truly investigative committees is to do it in secret.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: And the investigators are investigators that are assigned to those committees,
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: that are hired by those committees. That's real investigation. As
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: Amy said, this is just grandstanding.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: I was just going to use the excuse that the
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: alibi that he was at a Diddy party that night,
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: And that's very funny, all right.
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: California is about to cash in on Super Bowl sixty.
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: This year's Super Bowl is just the first in some
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: big sporting events that's expected to generate more than eighteen
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: billion dollars for the state of California. Of course, super
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: bowls first of them. This Sunday I expected to bring
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: in about five hundred million dollars for the Bay Area.
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: The game's being played in Santa Clara, but a lot
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: of the events are happening in San Francisco. The championship
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: game also expected to support five thousand jobs and bring
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: ninety thousand visitors to the Bay Area this weekend.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and keep in mind, our president is a Patriots fan,
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: So if Seahawks win, it's a rig game. There's no
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: such thing as an honest game. Okay, Amy, you give
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: me the look because I'm always making these jibes. At
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: do you talk.
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: About you know what I want to not do President
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: Trump all day every day.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: I know, you just inject stuff stuff like crazy, you know,
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: I just you know, I think it's going to change
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: when a Democrat comes in. Yeah, it is going to
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: change because it won't be as much to make fun of.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: You know, there's for you knew something You're not gonna
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: make my other than the way he looks and his liberalism.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: I don't think you're going to see anything close to
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: what's going on ever again. We'll never see this again.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: He's a genuine idiot, Newsome.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: I know he's not an idiot.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: No, no, genuine idiot.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: I don't think have you ever sat down and talked
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: to him. I haven't. I don't know if he's a
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: genuine idiot. We hang out.
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: We go to the French laundry all the time. During Yeah,
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: during COVID. Yeah, here's Bill handle. Oh my god, I
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: think I have a rash?
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: Is that okay? Looks moving on?
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: Speaking of Orange, nice segue, all right. The California teams
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: care about your children, and they want to protect them
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: by saying no to cars that don't have somebody in
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: them that they can charge to become Teamsters. So the
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: Teamsters Union of California is asking the state to suspend
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: Weimo's operating license in the state indefinitely because a kid
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: got hit last.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: Month in Santa Monica.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: A kid jumped out from between cars and the Waymouth
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: Carr was right there and the kid was slightly injured.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: And so they want to the operating license that wamo's
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: self driving cars are now illegal. That would have been
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: the same thing. Airplanes to this day would not be
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: able to fly, you know that because there were some
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: early crashes. Cars in general will not be able to
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: be driven. I just want to let you know. Helicopters
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: would never be flown. They by the way, even horses,
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: horse and buggies used to run over people.
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: But it isn't this so transparent because as the union
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: wants it, Yeah, you can't.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: Get a union.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: You can't get a car to join a union. Well,
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: it's a car.
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: And the other thing I think is kind of interesting
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: about this because we were talking about this because I
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: have been skeptical of the driverless vehicles, but this one
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: slammed on its brakes when a child darted out from
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: between cars. What are the like what's the likelihood that
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: a person would have seen it and reacted to it?
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: Not as quick not as quickly, not as quickly. The
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: brakes happen much quicker, They are much safer if you
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: look at the number of miles that Waimo has driven
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: and the accidents that these cars have gotten into per
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: capita is a fraction of what the number of cars
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: that got into accidents with the human drivers or even
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: unhuman drivers non human drivers. So that's just stupid, all right.
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: As news, astronauts are going to need to wait a
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: little while longer to reach for the stars. NASA says
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: it is delaying its Artemis two mission that aims to
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: send a crew of four around the Moon. They were
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: doing what they call a wet dress rehearsal at Kennedy
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: Space Center yesterday. They had to delay it once because
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: of the weather. But then they were doing this dress rehearsal,
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: basically a run through before the launch that was scheduled
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: for February eighth, engineers detected a leaking hydrogen at the
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: base of the Space Launch System rocket, and so they
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: stopped the test and pushed back the next possible launch
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: window into March.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: Do you notice the crew when they were interviewed, and
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: they're all brilliant people. I mean they're the credentials are
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: of course there. But it's one white guy, one black guy,
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: one woman, I think one Hispanic of the four if
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: I'm not mistaken. So no, the dwarf that was the
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: next one. The hunchback Dwarf was number five. But unfortunately
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: the gay hunchback Dwarf was gonna be five, but they
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: ran out of space in the capsule.
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: Today we're putting in space the mighty people of Benetton.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: Yes, all right, Benison going on sale soon.
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: On Catalina Island, they got a plan to restore Catalina
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: Island's ecosystem with the very controversial killing of roughly two
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: thousand non native deer. This helps actually this helps condor
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: recovery as well. The whole thing is they submitted this
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: by a private nonprofit Catalina Island Conservancy, was approved, and
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: they're gonna do it on the ground because everybody freaked
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: out they were doing it from a helicopter.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: And then they're gonna, you know, redo.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: The soil and do all these other.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's gonna come back to it's gonna come back
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: to its original ecosystem because he's mule deer like eat
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: everything in sight. So that makes sense. Of course, there
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: are people, oh my god, the deer. How could you
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: kill the deer? All right, now, take a break, come
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: back and guns. That's the what you can do with guns,
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: bow and arrows. You can do with a lot of stuff.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: Poison you can do it with a joke.
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: Oh, don't poison them.
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: Or you can throw some kid in a little some
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: toddler and hope they choke on the toddler.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: Okay, they're putting a bunch of way mos on the
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: there we go, all.
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: Right, take them all out right. Eddie Bauer is going bust.
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: Eddie Bauer, which opened its first store in Seattle in
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: nineteen twenty and currently owns and operates more than two
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: hundred stores in North America, is planning to close those
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: stores and filing for bankruptcy. E commerce operations apparently will continue.
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: I liked their luggage, Oh it, okay, they have some
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: great stuff.
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: And now because times have changed, they didn't switch quickly
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: enough to items that are people are more in demand of,
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: and that is couches and potatoes. And if they had
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: limited themselves to those two, the store would have been
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: in great shape.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: Oh boy, all right.
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: So last March, almost coming up on a year, by
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: the way, I had the honor of standing next to
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: this wacky bastard get married in Italy and one of
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: the places we went by is the Trevy Fountain, and
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: every tourist goes over there and they throw in coins
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: and make wishes and all that stuff, right, gorgeous, gorgeous. Well,
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: now there's a two dollars charge to toss a coin
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: in the Trevy Fountain, and all I can think about
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: was why don't they just take the coins out?
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: They do? Oh, you're talking about the people that throw
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: them in, Oh, because every night the city takes them
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: out and give them the charity. It's you throw the
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: coin over your shoulder and good luck. And that was
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: what from what fifties filmed. I don't remember which one,
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: but in any case, there's so many people. I didn't
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: go there. You went there, and it's bumper to bumper.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: I mean literally, coins are tossed, are hitting people in
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: the eye. You know how they have kiosks around where
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: they sell fruit and little bits of food. Ophthalmologists have
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: set up a little sands tiosks all the way around
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: Trevie's falka.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: Look, yeah that's a quarter.
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but two bucks just just to toss coins in.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's ridiculous. It's so crowded just make any
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: sense at all. It's a weird one, huh.
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: A snake has silenced a rising star Ifu Nanya Nuanjana.
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: I think I said it right. Was on season three
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: of The Voice in Nigeria, not here in the US.
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: But she's twenty six years old and she died at
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: a hospital in Nigeria after she got bit by a
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: venomous snake while she was sleeping, and apparently she was bitten.
• 26:44
  Speaker 4: They got her to the hospital, but they had one
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: dose of anti venom and apparently not the second one,
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: and so she could not breathe and she died.
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the hospitals and they they did have the anti venom,
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: but I guess they didn't get it to her close enough. Now,
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: when I read this story, I'm trying my damnedest to
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: find something funny about this, and I can't think of
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: a funny retort here being bitten in bed by a
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: cobra you were on the Voice. I still can't put
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: it together. Okay, that's okay, vill No, No, it's very
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: unusual for me. I'm going what's wrong with me? I
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: have to put myself on probation from not coming up
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: with something funny on this.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: She was a Harry Potter fan. House of slip.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: That's good. Okay, that's better. Okay, not bad.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: It's pretty rough, man, you know, no kidding. We don't
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: die of stuff like that here, No, because we don't
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: have cobras. Say yes, all right, So Rams did their
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: some big business. They re signed coach Sean McVay and
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: the general manager Less Sneid.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: Mcveigh's forty.
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: Sneid is fifty five and they're in the final year,
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: or at least entering the final years of their contract.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: So can't even imagine what Sean McVay is going to
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: be paid on this next contract. Ten million a year,
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: fifteen million a year. Kno, you keep up with this stuff.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: Any idea what Sean McVay is getting paid If you
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: had to guess, I would think around ten a year. Yeah,
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: it's not a bad living, all right.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: Do we have time yarning show money?
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: But uh yeah yeah, right, okay, one last one, let's
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: do it.

  Speaker 4: The ice house is out at the Olympics, so US
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: Figure Skating, USA Hockey and US Speed Skating have a
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: place where like it's a hospitality space that they were
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: planning to have at in Milan, where the Olympics are
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: about to get underway, and they called it the Ice House. Well,
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: because of the immigration operations and protests, they've changed the
• 28:49
  Speaker 4: name of it, so it's the Winter House.
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: Now. Oh oh, they're not alone. They're not alone. I
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: mean when the house in Pasadena is yeah, is going

• 28:58
  Speaker 2: those at the front of the store. They have those
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: huge freezer containers that have ice in them. Now instead
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: of the saying not, instead of saying ice, just says
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: frozen water. I mean, they are just getting away from
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: all of that.
