  Speaker 1: You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: six forty.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: KFI AM six forty Bill Handle.
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: Here it is a Tuesday morning, March seventeen, Saint Patrick's Day.
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: Some of the stories we are following Israel says it
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: has killed Iran's top security official and one of the
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: most powerful decision makers Ali Lata Johnny and the other
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: guy whatever his name, is also a head honcho, a
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: grand puba within his own publicity. And we have a
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: lot going on today now the gas tax, as Amy
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: reported this morning, we are now paying one dollar more
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: for a gallon of gas than the rest of the country,
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: where gas has exploded in cost anyway. So here is
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: the fight between affordability and environmental protection goals.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: And the fight.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Is not only among those people, but among those running
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: for governor. So you have two Democratic gubernatorial candidates are
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: calling for suspending California's field tax, fuel tax and or
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: easing the regulations. Why because gas prices have hit five
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: dollars and fifty two cents per gallon statewide.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Isn't that special? Amy?
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: In southern California, I know LA and Orange County. You
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: reported on those prices, and what are they.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: La County is five sixty three a gallon. Orange County
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: is five point sixty and it's five point fifty three
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: in the ie. Yeah, isn't that. No, that's fantastic, isn't it.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: And so Democratic lawmakers have rejected the fuel suspension.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Why because we need road.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: Funding and therein is the fight between affordability and the environment.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: So San Jose Mayor Matt Mahon or mayhan as if
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: we know him, he's.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Running for governor.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: He has a press conference in front of a gas
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: pump and there he is what a photo op, right,
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: and he says, the costs of gas becoming an emergency
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: for working families, and I think we ought to act
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: like it. And he said he called on state lawmakers
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: to suspend the gas tax, which is sixty one cents
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: per gallon, and.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: What a shocker. It is also the highest in the nation.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: Also, who is running for governor, former La Mayor Antonio
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Via ra Gosa, and he had his press conference. He
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: was in a pothole at the time, and he called
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: for an immediate moratorium on regulations that he for overburdening
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: California refineries and working families.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: By the way, that was not too obscure.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: Remember when he ran for mayor, he was going to
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: fix every pothole in the city, a million potholes, which
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: he didn't quite make. And so at the cost of
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: living in California is still astronomical. The cost of gas
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: has become astronomical and people just have a hard time
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: affording it. Cono, you drive in an hour each way
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: sixty one or seventy miles.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: How badly did is this hitting you?
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: Let's see before when it was in the mid fest
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: it was like forty five dollars a gallon, and now
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: it's sixty five, So twenty bucks each time I fill
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: up more.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: Twenty dollars more every time you fill up, and you
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: fill up how often?
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Once a week?
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: This car is twice a week just to come to work.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: So between the two cars three times a week.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, So what are you spending on gas
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: just my drive to work?
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: Or like, yeah, I know in general, across the board,
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: across the board when it's this high again, it's back
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: up to around seven hundred a month, but between both
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: cars and family and seven hundred.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: Dollars a month for now.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Granted Kno drives more than most, but the cost of
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: gasoline when people are living paycheck to paycheck and it's
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: going up.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: It's not seven hundred dollars a month.
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: Let's call it three hundred four hundred dollars a month,
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: which is not unusual that that can break you. And
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: so what can be done well before we have, in fact,
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: I think, suspended the gas tax. And what ends up
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: happening is there is so much money that the state
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: receives from gas tax that it makes a huge, huge
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: inroad in terms of what the budget is. I mean,
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: we do a lot of driving, we pay a lot
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: of taxes, and to remove those taxes as a real hit.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: Also the environmental aspects of this, because we have that
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: summer blend our restrictions in terms of the emissions of.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Fossil fuel. What do they call that emissions? Yeah?
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: Do I have that right? I'm mixing the two up.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: In any case, the amount of gunk that comes out
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: of the exhaust pipe, how's that for? This is why
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: I'm so damn good at this stuff, because I do
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: such a phenomenal job of explaining the gunk that comes
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: out of the tailpipes is so environmentally unfriendly that it's
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: a big deal.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Well, eating is probably more of a big deal, you think.
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: Oh no, Alasonia, California is known for trying to save
• 5:45
  Speaker 6: the world by trying to ruin California.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty much. Good point.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: I think you've just done a very very good job
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: of describing it. Now, the Democratic super legislature, you know,
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: there's a super majority, of course of Democrats who don't
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: like this idea and have shut down the idea of
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: lowering the gas tax and lowering the requirements of that
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: super blend of gasoline that reduces the emissions. I think
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: I got that right, not O missions, but emissions.
• 6:19
  Speaker 6: Old mission would be they don't tell us what they're
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: doing with that.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty much. O mission would be.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: Not having this show anymore, which would do everybody a
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: lot better. As matter of fact, there's a move in
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: a California legislature to remove this show, and it's.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: A jurisdictional issue.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: In any case, what is going to happen, Well, they've
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: got to do something, and the way I see it,
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: they probably have to do both. Because the difference in
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: the cost of gas as oil goes up up up,
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: which is going to do as long as this war continues.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: Then the disparity between the cost of gasoline here and
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: the rest of the country is also exploding, and it's
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: I think a dollar per gallon more. Well, yeah, it's
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: almost a dollar per gallon more nationally too. So we
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: are now at two dollars a gallon more than than
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: the national average was before the war started. Wow, okay,
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: do I have a story for you? And I really
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: enjoy doing. This is how we've changed society and where
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: we're going, and this one has to do. I'm going
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: to give you a stat. Service oriented tenants have least
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: over fifty percent of total retail square footage in twenty
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: twenty five, and that is surpassing goods based retail for
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: the first time.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: And there's two reasons for it. Reason Number one is.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: Brick and mortar stores, which are renters, are really reducing
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: their foot rent because of online shopping for the most part.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: And at the same time, the number of the wellness
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: stores and there's no way you can shop online for
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: a massage, for example, I mean you got to go
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: in there and they have to have a physical a
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: physical space. So Americans are out shopping these days. Here's
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: another reason. Far more likely to be buying botox or
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: boxing lessons than shoes or shampoo. Consumer dollars remain firmly
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: pointed at Services National director of say of US retail
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: analytics for a group called co Star and changes at
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: the property level, and it tells us that e commerce
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: is growing like crazy and the thinking of Americans are
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: very different. And what I didn't know this wellness is
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: expanding as a market two point one trillion dollars in
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty four in the US. Now, businesses are growing
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: the demand, I mean like crazy. There are now shops
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: for laser facials, IV hydrations, vitamin infusions, botox, red light therapy,
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: cryotherapy blasting the body with sub zero temperatures, reducing inflammation,
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: et cetera. Waxing centers, you know those waxing stores where
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: women get their Brazilian which everybody knows what that is.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: And there's also the Guyana where it's a little bit different.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: Women who remove their panties look like a rabbi. It's
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: just a different way for people to look. And they
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: care about how they look, and they care about their bodies,
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: and they care about how they feel their health. And
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: that is way more important now for people to that
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: Americans experience.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Planet fitness right.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: You've heard of Planet Fits Discourse, one of the big
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: gyms out there. They've added more than a million members
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: last year and they're going to open up two hundred
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: new locations in twenty twenty six. You talk about a
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: business that's crazy. Retail is shrinking. How many stores, major
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: brands retail stores have you heard about closing down.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: That story after story after story.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: Now when you're talking about Botox centers, those are exploding.
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: And it's see, I don't care how I look, but
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: I but I go to a gym, and I have
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: my choice of gyms. There are plenty of gyms around me,
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: far more than retail stores, for example.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: And that's what where we're going interesting.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: As I talked about, this is one of those This
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: is how America is dealing with itself and dealing with
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: its future. Things are changing and more rapidly than you
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: could ever imagine. And of course AI is the forfward
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: front of all this. And we're going to be doing
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: AI stories like crazy, because there are areas that AI
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: is now involved in that you can't even imagine how
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: much AI is going to influence our lives. I think
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: AI may actually be more important and have a bigger
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: impact than the computer. And it was in my lifetime,
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: which is when computer. I remember the first computer that
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: came out and I'm not that old. Yes you are, Bill, No,
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: I'm not. And I remember the first Steve Jobs computer,
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: and I remember popular mechanics. I think we're the first
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: actual computer you could have. You had to make it yourself,
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: and it just gave you the plans, et cetera. It's
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: a very different world. Okay, World Cup is coming to
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: LA this year, and then the Olympics are coming to
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: Los Angeles and a lot of hotels and rooms are
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: going to be well, the place is going to be full.
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think there's gonna be a hotel
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: room that exists anywhere near Los Angeles because of the
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: number of people that are coming in.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, those are two big, big, big venues.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: So the people at Airbnb issue what's called a doomsday
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: letter to LA ahead of the twenty twenty six feet
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: foot World Cup, demanding the city and the rules banning
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: second homeowners from letting out their properties as vacation rentals
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: during the tournament. Right now, if you have a second home,
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: you cannot be an Airbnb person. The company Airbnb said
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: that if they keep on doing this during these two events,
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: the explosion of properties, those that are that will be
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: available that are now not available. If they do that,
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: then you're going to see an average of taxes increasing
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: eighty percent. And we're only talking about a week or
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: two weeks during these events.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Deloitte.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: A Deloitte study found an Airbnb host in LA can
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: make up to five thousand dollars.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: For the week during the event.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: And what Airbnb is saying, you know what, just during
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: this time, you know, get rid of those rules. It's
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: gonna be one hundred million dollars just in taxes to
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: the city.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: You're going to make a bucket of money.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: And the problem is you've got the people who are
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: the homeless, the homeless housing people.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: And this is the reason.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: That we have that law in place, is because those
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: second homes were taken off the market, are no longer
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: long term rentals and they just keep the place for
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: Airbnb users or the very Trabago and the other platforms.
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: And it makes sense, I guess, in one way, and
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: that you take those off those properties off the market,
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: they they're no there, they are not long.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Term rentals anymore.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: And If you do that with enough people, you've got
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: a housing shortage added to the housing shortage, added to
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: the housing shortage, and we just don't have enough units available.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: And then the whole issue is low long term versus
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: the airbnb very short term. And then you have the
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: prices of housing and Neil, you are one of those
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: bastards that have an airbnb, don't you? Not in La,
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: But it's going to be close if you open it up.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: You don't think big bear, You don't think an hour,
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: and you don't think an hour and a half coming
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: into La. Look what happened in Japan, Okay, where people
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: were two three hours coming into the city.
• 15:13
  Speaker 6: There is no one that I see on a daily
• 15:16
  Speaker 6: basis talking to themselves and swinging sticks at trees. That
• 15:22
  Speaker 6: is going if I only had a house. We do
• 15:26
  Speaker 6: not have a housing problem. We have too many people problem.
• 15:30
  Speaker 6: Oh okay, I'm sorry, You're right. That's another way of
• 15:33
  Speaker 6: looking at it. Well, don't have I can't get it.
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: I can't afford Beverly Hills. You know what, I don't
• 15:39
  Speaker 6: live in Beverly Hills. I understand, But you're going to
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: be able to room on this. In the United States,
• 15:45
  Speaker 6: for people. And the homeless issue is not because people
• 15:48
  Speaker 6: don't have housing.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Well, okay, it depends on how you look at it.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: For example, we don't have we don't have people who
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: are food insecure.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: We don't have people that don't want enough to eat.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: We have to we have.
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: What we do is we have too many people for
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: the food that we have.
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: That's the problem. It's those damn people out there for food.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: We have plenty of food. I told you.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: We just say, understand, but but we waste the food. Oh,
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: here's the analogy. We throw away the food and the airbnb.
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: I understand, but we throw away the food. You're right,
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: but that's exactly what the airbnb folks are saying, is that, uh.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: You you give us a week, you.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: Give us two weeks, and we are going to pay
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: a lot of tasks every time there is somebody who
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: is poor or broke.
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: That people who make a living and work for it
• 16:42
  Speaker 6: are the ones that are punished. You are saying you
• 16:44
  Speaker 6: can't make money using your house. You are because an elitist, Oh,
• 16:49
  Speaker 6: says the guy who lives behind a gate.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: With a code.
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: I live with the people, baby, the people.
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: The people that don't have a house, on the sidewalk,
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: and that don't eat because they're eating canned they're eating
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: cat food because that's all he can afford.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Have you seen the fat homeless people here in La
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: Actually I don't see homeless people because I don't.
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: Starving homeless people in Los Angeles, Sir, they're very well fed.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: This is not about.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: Carving homeless people. Starving well fed homeless people. Let me
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: think that one through during the break, okay, because I
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: have to wrap my head around that one.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: Starving fat people, homeless and drug problems. That's not about
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: a house.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: Now, I want to move over to robotics and just
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: a clever idea. Having been in the construction business, as
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: you know, I've told you many times, I work my
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: way through law school in construction. I had a business
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: that went there was spectacularly failure that I lost my
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: shirt on, and law school will save my ass in
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: any case. The parts of the world world, particularly the
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: United States and UK, are experiencing a housing crisis. Demand
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: for housing outpacing supply. And this is a story mainly
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: odd of England, but it's quickly coming to the United States.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact that it has already reached
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: here and it is a hell of a story.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: It's a company called Automated Architecture and it makes portable
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: micro factories that produce the wooden framing of.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: A house, walls, floors, roofs.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: These micro factories produce the panels quicker, cheaper, more precisely
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: than a framing crew. And what it does is free
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: up carpenters to focus on the construction afterutely taking these
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: panels and just putting them together.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: And it's all about automation. So here's what happens.
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: Home builders send the company building plans and the software,
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: the AI that it has, calculates how many panels are needed,
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: exactly how much wood the developer has to buy, and
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: the whole thing is shipped in a shipping container to
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: the job site. An operator is there and inside the
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: factory a robotic arm measures cuts nails the timber into
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: panels and this is all done with AI, including windows
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: and door gaps, drilling holes for wiring and plumbing, and then.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: It's all put together. I mean, what a clever idea.
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: Now there are factory built homes that do it at
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: the factory and then deliver the homes or deliver the
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: kits right, the walls, etc. This happens at the job
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: site and it is made precisely there and is put
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: up well, it's put up in a matter of days
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: as opposed to weeks. It takes a normal timber framing
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: crew four weeks to put this up.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: This happens in one day. Actually, the service thirty percent.
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: Cheap than framing crew, fifteen percent cheaper than buying panels
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: from large factories pre built and shipping them to a
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: site more environmentally friendly. How is that Well, wood bends, twists,
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: has bits taken out, and has knots.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: The micro factory it's AI responds to the.
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: Flaws in the wood and then calculates how to best
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: work with the wood the available material. Also, the panels
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: fit together more tightly so heat loss of the final
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: home is reduced.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, how clever is this? I mean this is brilliant.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: They currently have three microfactories in the US and the
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: UK five more set to be delivered here. This is
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: something that well, the argument is that we're taking away
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: the construction workers are losing jobs. Well, you do have
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: framers that are losing jobs because now they work one
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: day instead of four weeks. But there aren't enough framers
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: out there to begin with. The industry is desperate for framers.
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: This is a terrific idea. And having been in the
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: construction business and had framers building homes, framers built my
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: house and it took weeks and weeks. Boy, I would
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: do this in a heartbeat. In a heartbeat, all right,
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: Coming up, Rich to morrow. It is our Tech segment
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: with Rich. This is KFI Am sixty.
