  Speaker 1: Dog Day. So give your little pup a little extra
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: love today. Sad news, of course, Dolly Parton. You have
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: to be probably hiding under a rock to have not
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: heard about this. It's amazing the outpouring of love and
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: support and all the stories and everything we're hearing. And
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: we're going to share some of them, of course, with
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: you here on KFI. But just amazing. What an amazing
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: life and a life well lived. Here's what's ahead on
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: Wake Up Call.
• 1:12
  Speaker 6: U.S.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Flags have been lowered to half staff at all federal
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: facilities to honor Dolly Parton. President Trump ordered that. Her
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: publicist says that. She died yesterday after a short battle
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: with cancer. Dolly Parton was 80.
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: An L.A.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: City Council committee has voted in favor of withholding reconstruction
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: permits for lineage logistics. The committee also voted to increase
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: fines for violations or noncompliance for the operators of the
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: burned-out cold storage warehouse in Boyle Heights. The matter now
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: moves forward to the full city council for consideration. Temperatures
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: will soar past 100 degrees for much of Southern California
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: as a heat wave continues. Parts of L.A. County are
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: also under a red flag warning for high fire danger
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: through Friday afternoon. Iran has put a $ 10 million bounty
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: on the president's son. ABC's Rich Frankel joins us to
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: tell us about the threat, whether it's real and what
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: other threats are out there. You can keep track of
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: your kids when they take an Uber. KTLA's tech reporter
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Rich DeMuro has more on that coming up at 520+.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Aura is fighting back against a class action lawsuit that
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: claims Aura doesn't really track your sleep. We were telling
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: you about that yesterday. And an app that can help
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: if you get motion sickness in the car. Oh, my gosh.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: I need this one. That's coming up at 520. Thank you, Will,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: for sound effects. Christmas is less than four months away now.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Preparations are underway for a Christmas tradition. The Nutcracker is
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: coming back to Whittier. We're going to be talking to
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: the woman who's behind the production and has been behind
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: the production for 27 years. It's performer, teacher, choreographer, Claylee Stewart.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: That's coming up a little bit later on Wake Up Call. Also,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: at the bottom of the hour, Amy's on it. It's
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: the number one streaming show on Netflix. Will it be
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: the last show I watch at my house? Quite possibly,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: because it's horrible. Let's get started with some of the
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: stories coming out of the KFI 24-hour newsroom. Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Fans are mourning the death of country music legend Dolly Parton.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: She died after a brief battle with cancer. Her nephew
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: and head of security, Brian Seaver, made the announcement yesterday
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: in a video message posted online.
• 3:36
  Speaker 7: Dolly opened doors, not just for me, but for her
• 3:39
  Speaker 7: entire family to reach the potential we didn't even know
• 3:42
  Speaker 7: was possible. Dolly also opened doors for generations of singers, songwriters, musicians,
• 3:48
  Speaker 7: and dreamers from every walk of life and across every continent.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Parton was known for her music, her movies, and her philanthropy.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: She talked about growing up poor in Tennessee, but built
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: a global brand through her Dollywood theme park and her
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Imagination Library program. Her hit songs, of course, include Jolene,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: 9 to 5, and I Will Always Love You. Dolly
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Parton was 80. American presidents are honoring the life and
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: legacy of the queen of country music.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: All the former presidents issued statements following Dolly Parton's death.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: President Obama wrote about Parton's journey from a one-room cabin
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: to winning Grammys and even helping to fund development of
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: the COVID vaccine. President Clinton called her a one-of-a-kind entertainer.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: The Bushes said they respected Dolly Parton's work promoting literacy.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Joe Biden called Dolly Parton an American original. President Trump
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: said Parton's death is a true loss for millions and
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: ordered flags to be flown at half-staff for one week.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: I'm Rory O'Neill.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: About 5,000 SoCal Edison customers have been told that they
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: could lose their power because of the heat.
• 4:52
  Speaker 8: Public safety power shutoffs are an important tool in keeping
• 4:55
  Speaker 8: people safe.
• 4:56
  Speaker 9: Edison's Diane Castro says the possible record-breaking heat prompted them
• 4:59
  Speaker 9: to warn customers in four counties, Inyo, L.A., Mono, and
• 5:02
  Speaker 9: Santa Barbara, that their power may be cut off because
• 5:05
  Speaker 9: of the heightened risk of wildfire.
• 5:06
  Speaker 8: We only initiate... A public safety power shutoff, if there's
• 5:11
  Speaker 8: strong winds combined with dry ground conditions and low humidity,
• 5:15
  Speaker 8: and that would increase the risk of wildfire.
• 5:18
  Speaker 9: Castro says the advance warning to customers should give them
• 5:20
  Speaker 9: time to power up their batteries and chargers and have
• 5:22
  Speaker 9: a flashlight handy. Michael Crozier, KFI News.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: The L.A.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: City Council may regulate e-bikes and other zippy little two-wheelers.
• 5:31
  Speaker 10: The council has unanimously approved a motion that instructed the
• 5:34
  Speaker 10: Department of Transportation, the L.A. Bicycle Advisory Committee, city attorneys,
• 5:39
  Speaker 10: the L.A. Police Department, Bureau of Street Services, and L.A.
• 5:42
  Speaker 10: Metro to provide guidance within 90 days on how to
• 5:45
  Speaker 10: go about it. The report is expected to cover things
• 5:48
  Speaker 10: like requiring all e-bikes, emotos, and electric mopeds in the
• 5:51
  Speaker 10: city to meet legal standards and requirements, banning the sale
• 5:54
  Speaker 10: or resale of e-bikes, emotos, and electric mopeds that don't
• 5:58
  Speaker 10: meet legal standards and requirements, among other things. Debra Mark,
• 6:02
  Speaker 10: KFI News.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Time to say good morning to ABC's former special agent
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: in charge at the FBI, Rich Frankel.
• 6:12
  Speaker 8: Hello.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Rich, we got a particularly worrisome threat against Trump, not
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: President Trump, but his 20-year-old son, Barron.
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: Yeah, this is a threat that is purported to be
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: out of Iran. If true and accurate, Iran has put
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: basically what we consider a bounty on President Trump's head
• 6:35
  Speaker 6: for $ 10 million. And what's concerning is there is some
• 6:39
  Speaker 6: specificity to this threat in that it says where the
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: president's son is. that they know how he gets to
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: and from school or his classes, what he wears, what
• 6:53
  Speaker 6: his detail may wear. So it's not just your average threat,
• 6:58
  Speaker 6: which comes against the president and his family, I think,
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: probably too often. But again, this is from a nation
• 7:07
  Speaker 6: state that we're currently in a shooting conflict with, and
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: it does give that specificity.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: Rich, how common are threats against the first families?
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: Well, often enough and with enough behind them that they
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: have details around the clock. Each of the president's family
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: members have their own detail, and this is something that
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: has not only happened, of course, with President Trump and
• 7:39
  Speaker 6: his family, but goes back farther than I can remember.
• 7:42
  Speaker 6: I remember Amy Carter having her detail in college, but
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: I'm sure that they were with the president's family prior
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: to that.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: And what's different about this one is that whereas we
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: probably don't hear about most threats against the first families,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: this one was broadcast on Iranian TV, wasn't it?
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: Correct. And, you know, we're not– again, this is purported.
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: We haven't confirmed it or we don't know if it
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: is entirely accurate and from the Iranian government. But the
• 8:15
  Speaker 6: fact that it was broadcast across their TV does give it,
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: of course, more substance. The Secret Service, I think, no
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: matter what, is going to be taking this seriously, again,
• 8:27
  Speaker 6: because of where it may have come from, the specificity
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: of the threat, how much detail was put in, the
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: fact about the reward for this or the contract for this,
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: and who is being threatened. With all that together, you're
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: going to see the Secret Service upping whatever protection they
• 8:49
  Speaker 6: have of the president's son to whatever can be the
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: most heightened level.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's in college now, isn't he?
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and this is open source, you know, that he
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: goes to school in New York. It doesn't, you know,
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: we don't know where he's living. At least I hope
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: we don't know where he's living, but that he goes
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: to school, you know, in downtown New York, that he goes.
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: To certain classes.
• 9:12
  Speaker 6: That is all, you know, basically been reported and is
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: on the Internet. This one, again, is a little bit
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: more specific because supposedly it's saying where he, you know,
• 9:22
  Speaker 6: where he goes to class and how he approaches class, right?
• 9:26
  Speaker 6: And if they do have that information, you know, for
• 9:29
  Speaker 6: all we know, they could be using, you know, people
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: in cells here or they could be using criminal actors.
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: Iran is not above using criminal actors throughout the world
• 9:39
  Speaker 6: to do their bidding against their enemies.
• 9:44
  Speaker 8: OK.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: ABC's former special agent in charge with the FBI, Rich Frankel.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much. Appreciate your time this morning.
• 9:53
  Speaker 6: Thank you. All right.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Let's get back to some of the stories coming out
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: of the KFI 24-hour newsroom as the U.S. trade war
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: with Canada escalates. A lot of people north of the
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: border say they're only buying products made in Canada. And
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: this woman in the province of Ontario says she's not
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: going to be visiting the U.S. anytime soon.
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: Unfortunately, tourism, we don't go there anymore.
• 10:15
  Speaker 11: Like a lot of us, there's other places that.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: The Canadian government will slap tariffs of 15 to 50
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: percent on hundreds of American goods starting September 8th in
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: retaliation for tariffs put on Canadian goods by the Trump administration.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Fourteen babies in Pakistan have been killed in a fire
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: in a nursery of a government hospital. Officials say at
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: least one baby was rescued by a doctor this morning
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: after an air conditioning unit compressor exploded inside the nursery
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: on the third floor. The rest of the hospital was
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: not affected. A committee has been formed to investigate. An
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: ICE agent charged in Minnesota with firing his gun through
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: a house door, hitting a man in the leg, and
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: then lying about it could walk out of jail if
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: a federal judge doesn't step in. Christian Castro is being
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: held in South Texas. Minnesota's governor and attorney general want
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: a judge to order Texas Governor Greg Abbott to extradite
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Castro to Minnesota. Texas law says he must be released
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: after 90 days of detention, which is tomorrow. Much of
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: the West is still bone dry with very hot temperatures,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: which is fueling more wildfires. ABC's Melissa Adon says one
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: of them has burned more than 50,000 acres near Fort Worth, Texas.
• 11:28
  Speaker 12: It's fueled by bone dry brush and triple digit temperatures
• 11:31
  Speaker 12: that have plagued the West all summer. Outside Reno, firefighters
• 11:36
  Speaker 12: are still trying to gain the upper hand on a
• 11:38
  Speaker 12: fire that's forced tens of thousands to evacuate.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: She says temperatures could get as high as 115 degrees
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: this week in the southwest. Senator Darlene Graham has won
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: the Republican nomination to replace her late brother, Lindsey Graham,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: on South Carolina's general election ballot. She defeated Congressman Ralph
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Norman in yesterday's special Republican primary runoff. Graham was appointed
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: by Governor Henry McMaster to serve out the remaining months
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: of her late brother's current term and was endorsed by
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: President Trump. Voters in Alaska will see two Dan Sullivans
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: running for the same U.S. Senate seat in November. Dan J.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Sullivan Jr. advanced to the state's U.S. Senate primary, along
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: with Republican incumbent Dan Sullivan and Democrat Mary Peltola. Dan J.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: Sullivan is a retired teacher. He sued to get on
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: the ballot. A top state elections official had said that
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: he filed his candidacy with an intent to confuse voters.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: But a judge invalidated that decision. The NFL is responding
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: to a new study that finds at least one in
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: four former players who died between 2016 and 2021 had
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: chronic traumatic encephalopathy or CTE. The league says it continuously
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: strives to make the game of football safer, including by
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: implementing strategies to reduce concussions and head impacts. Dr. Darian
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Sutton says CTE can only be diagnosed after death.
• 13:08
  Speaker 13: The cumulative experience of professional football over time was associated
• 13:12
  Speaker 13: with the worst severity of CTE, chronic traumatic encephalopathy.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: He says to put CTE in context, it affects less
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: than 1% of the general population. Target stock has taken
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: a hit following backlash over a Halloween costume controversy.
• 13:28
  Speaker 13: The cumulative experience of professional football over time was associated
• 13:32
  Speaker 13: with the worst severity of CTE, a chronic traumatic encephalopathy.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: That is not the correct one. Let's go to the
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Target controversy.
• 13:40
  Speaker 14: The company apologized for the costume Monday children's clown outfit
• 13:44
  Speaker 14: that some say evoked racist minstrel stereotypes and pulled it
• 13:47
  Speaker 14: from shelves and online sales. The stock fell as much
• 13:50
  Speaker 14: as 5% during the day's trading. Tejal Patel, the director
• 13:54
  Speaker 14: of Target shareholder SOC Investment Group, said the costume controversy
• 13:58
  Speaker 14: is another example in a chain of events where Target
• 14:01
  Speaker 14: has lost trust with its consumer base. Mark Mayfield, KOFI News.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: Your official home for Dodger baseball is AM570 LA Sports.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: This afternoon, your back-to-back world champion Dodgers will try to
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: get back on the winning track following a 4-3 loss
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: to the Braves yesterday. First pitch this afternoon goes out
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: in Atlanta at 4. You can listen on AM 570
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: LA Sports and stream on the iHeartRadio app live from
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: the Galpin Ford broadcast booth. Firefighters are preparing for potential
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: wildfires as temperatures continue to top the century mark with
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: low humidity levels during this heat wave. LA Fire is
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: pre-positioning crews and equipment so they can respond quickly to
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: any new fires that may get sparked. Red flag warnings
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: are in effect through Friday. The Palm Springs City Council
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: will consider adopting a temporary ban on data centers and
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: The staff report noted that other local governments, including Indio,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: Coachella and Desert Hot Springs, have already taken measures to
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: prohibit data centers and similar land uses. Well, it's about time.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: A city law dating back to 1936 that prohibited residents
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: from playing catch or other sports on public streets and
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: sidewalks has been taken off the books. City Council voted
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: 14-0 to repeal the law, calling it outdated and no
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: longer appropriate for a modern city.
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: Really?
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: Let's take a morning now to the host of Rich
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: on Tech on KFI, Saturdays from 11 to 2. It's
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: KTLA's tech reporter, Rich DeMuro.
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: Morning, Rich.
• 15:33
  Speaker 15: Good morning to you, Amy.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: We have so much to talk about today, so let's
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: get right to it. I want to see if we
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: can get through all of this.
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: Uber.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Says if you want to watch your kids when they're
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: riding Uber, you can.
• 15:47
  Speaker 15: Yeah, 13 to 17-year-olds have this thing called Uber Teen. And, yeah, basically,
• 15:52
  Speaker 15: if the parents want to tune into a live stream
• 15:55
  Speaker 15: from the driver's camera to check in on their kids,
• 15:58
  Speaker 15: they can. This is only live in about nine cities
• 16:01
  Speaker 15: right now, but they hope to roll it out to
• 16:02
  Speaker 15: the U.S. or the whole U.S.
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: In the upcoming weeks.
• 16:06
  Speaker 15: But the reality is parents, you know, if they're on
• 16:08
  Speaker 15: the edge about their kid taking a ride with a stranger.
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: This.
• 16:12
  Speaker 15: Should hopefully make them feel a little bit better about
• 16:14
  Speaker 15: sending them in that car. I think it's a good idea.
• 16:17
  Speaker 15: I think the main thing to look out for here is,
• 16:21
  Speaker 15: you know, are these phones going to work in the sun,
• 16:23
  Speaker 15: like driving all day and the battery life? I mean,
• 16:26
  Speaker 15: I don't know how many drivers are actually going to say, yeah,
• 16:28
  Speaker 15: I'll do this because of the impact it's going to
• 16:31
  Speaker 15: have on their phone.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, especially like you said, the sun, my phone will
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: overheat and go, sorry, you got to shut down.
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: OK.
• 16:37
  Speaker 15: Yeah, exactly. So I'm curious to see.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Is it in L.A.
• 16:41
  Speaker 6: Yet?
• 16:42
  Speaker 15: It's not in LA, Phoenix, Orlando, Portland, Cleveland, and parts
• 16:45
  Speaker 15: of Texas, but they say that they're going to roll
• 16:47
  Speaker 15: it out in the, in the U S across the
• 16:49
  Speaker 15: U S in the coming weeks. So, you know, it
• 16:51
  Speaker 15: should be pretty fast. They've been, you know, the teen
• 16:53
  Speaker 15: accounts have been around since 2023. So that's not new.
• 16:56
  Speaker 15: It's just the idea of letting you live stream. And
• 16:59
  Speaker 15: by the way, they're not thinking this is like live
• 17:01
  Speaker 15: streaming the whole ride. It's more of like a check-in
• 17:04
  Speaker 15: and the driver sees, you know, when the person's looking
• 17:07
  Speaker 15: and the teens, like they get an alert. I mean,
• 17:11
  Speaker 15: It's weird in general to think about sending your kid.
• 17:13
  Speaker 15: I have a teen this age, and we've talked about this. Like,
• 17:16
  Speaker 15: will we allow him to do Uber? We have signed
• 17:19
  Speaker 15: him up. We have not had him take his first
• 17:21
  Speaker 15: ride yet.
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Something to talk about within the family. Speaking of Uber, Rich,
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: I got like four texts yesterday from something that says
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: it's Uber with us. You know, one of those access codes.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: It says, Uber, your code is blah, blah, blah. And
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: it says, don't share this code with anyone. And I'm curious,
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: is it just some random phishing where they're trying to
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: get you to respond? Or is it someone trying to
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: hack into my account?
• 17:50
  Speaker 15: It could be someone trying to hack into your account.
• 17:52
  Speaker 15: If it's coming from the legitimate Uber number, then someone
• 17:55
  Speaker 15: is trying to get into your account. So if it
• 17:57
  Speaker 15: doesn't come from that number, it's just someone phishing. Or
• 18:01
  Speaker 15: they're just trying to get you. Is there something to
• 18:03
  Speaker 15: click in that link?
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: There's a number that says 0502 and it's highlighted. So
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: I think you could click through.
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: Hmm.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: Interesting.
• 18:14
  Speaker 15: Yeah, you're phony. I mean, I would scroll up and
• 18:17
  Speaker 15: if it's coming from like the actual like login number
• 18:19
  Speaker 15: that you've used to log in before, like if it's
• 18:21
  Speaker 15: coming from like the official Uber, I would probably change
• 18:24
  Speaker 15: your password immediately.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: I already did just in case.
• 18:28
  Speaker 4: OK.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: Look at me being safe.
• 18:29
  Speaker 6: OK.
• 18:29
  Speaker 15: And you have to factor on, which is smart.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: OK. Fake online party invitations. I got one of these
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: from my friend David Brinker, who I haven't talked to
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: for years. And I got an e-vite. I was like, oh, look. Careful.
• 18:44
  Speaker 15: This is like the saddest scam ever because people are
• 18:47
  Speaker 15: hearing from their old friends. These are people you know.
• 18:49
  Speaker 15: And basically you're like, oh, that's cool. They're inviting me
• 18:52
  Speaker 15: to a party.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 18:53
  Speaker 15: And what's happened is their email has been hacked. And
• 18:57
  Speaker 15: so the scammers are using it to send out what
• 19:00
  Speaker 15: looks like a legitimate invitation. And I've gotten a ton
• 19:03
  Speaker 15: of these. You know, I reply to a lot of
• 19:05
  Speaker 15: viewers and followers and listeners that email me. So I'm
• 19:09
  Speaker 15: on a lot of their contact lists. And so I've
• 19:11
  Speaker 15: gotten so many of these. And every one of them
• 19:14
  Speaker 15: is someone that I helped in the past. I'm like, oh, sad,
• 19:16
  Speaker 15: they got hacked. My wife got one yesterday, and so
• 19:19
  Speaker 15: she was asking me about it. So these are dangerous
• 19:22
  Speaker 15: because if you click, and of course, we're all kind
• 19:25
  Speaker 15: of like curious, wait, what's the deal on this party?
• 19:27
  Speaker 15: It will probably either try to install malware on your computer,
• 19:31
  Speaker 15: steal your login credentials. There's just a million ways that
• 19:34
  Speaker 15: they can try to get you with this. So when
• 19:36
  Speaker 15: you're not expecting any sort of party invite from someone,
• 19:40
  Speaker 15: text them on the side, hey, did you invite me
• 19:42
  Speaker 15: to something? If not, it's probably a scam.
• 19:45
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: And then when you say, did you invite me to
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: something and they go, no, then it becomes very awkward too.
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 19:52
  Speaker 15: Especially if they're throwing a real party. They're like, no,
• 19:54
  Speaker 15: I didn't send you that invite.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Okay, and I so want to hear about this because
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: sitting in the back seat in the car and trying
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: to do like, or even in the passenger side seat
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: for me can be a very motion sickness experience. And
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: there's a phone setting that might help.
• 20:11
  Speaker 15: Yeah, this is like the best-kept secret ever. So basically
• 20:14
  Speaker 15: the reason why I'm talking about this is because Android 17,
• 20:17
  Speaker 15: which is the latest version of the software for Android phones,
• 20:19
  Speaker 15: is adding something called motion cues, right? And so these
• 20:22
  Speaker 15: are little dots on your screen that basically light up
• 20:25
  Speaker 15: when you are driving, and they follow the movement of
• 20:28
  Speaker 15: the car. And so I guess it helps somehow with
• 20:30
  Speaker 15: your inner ear and your brain. kind of process everything
• 20:33
  Speaker 15: and you don't get sick while you're driving. I mean, well,
• 20:36
  Speaker 15: I should say while you're a passenger in a car, right?
• 20:38
  Speaker 15: This is not for drivers necessarily. But iPhone also has
• 20:42
  Speaker 15: had this feature for a while. It's called vehicle motion cues.
• 20:45
  Speaker 15: So if you get sick in the car as a passenger,
• 20:48
  Speaker 15: when you're looking at your phone screen, you can turn
• 20:51
  Speaker 15: this on. And I will tell you, I tested this
• 20:53
  Speaker 15: on the windiest road I've ever been on in Northern
• 20:56
  Speaker 15: California and And it works like a charm. My wife,
• 20:58
  Speaker 15: I told her about it. She uses it every single
• 21:01
  Speaker 15: time in the car now.
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: It is amazing.
• 21:03
  Speaker 15: There's also an app if you don't have a Pixel
• 21:05
  Speaker 15: phone called KineStop, K-I-N-E-S-T-O-P. And that is a way to
• 21:10
  Speaker 15: add it to any Android phone. But I'm not kidding.
• 21:13
  Speaker 15: Look for this feature. I've got the links on my website, richontech.tv.
• 21:16
  Speaker 15: Hit the star at the top and turn this on
• 21:19
  Speaker 15: if you get car sick. It's really a lifesaver.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Okay, and it's in your settings. If you have an iPhone,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: it's in your settings because I just found it. I'm
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: going to turn it on right now.
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 21:28
  Speaker 15: Yeah, you can even search for it. But yes, vehicle
• 21:31

• 21:57
  Speaker 1: All right, you too. The sanity phase of the trial
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: of the man convicted of first-degree murder in the killing
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: of L.A. County Sheriff's Deputy Ryan Klinkenbroomer is scheduled to
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: get underway today. A jury in downtown L.A. will be
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: asked to determine whether Kevin Salazar was sane or insane
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: when he pulled up next to the deputy at a
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: red light in Palmdale and shot him in the head
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: September 16, 2023. Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco is digging
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: in his heels as California's Supreme Court decides if he
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: must return the ballots he seized.
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: Bianco seized more than 650,000 ballots in March from November's
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: Prop 50 redistricting election over claims of voter fraud, which
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: election officials said were baseless. State Attorney General Rob Bonta
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: said Bianco had no authority to take the ballots and
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: ordered him to return them. In a video on social media,
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: Bianco called Bonta corrupt.
• 22:45
  Speaker 11: You don't give it back to the people that you
• 22:46
  Speaker 11: suspect may be committing the crime. And at this point,
• 22:50
  Speaker 11: we really don't know who that may be or what
• 22:52
  Speaker 11: it may do.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: Is it a person? Is it a machine?
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: Is it an accident? Was it on purpose?
• 22:57
  Speaker 11: We really don't know. And we were prevented from finding
• 23:00
  Speaker 11: out because of the attorney general.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: The ruling could take months. Mark Rauner, KFI News.

  Speaker 1: The mayor of Santa Ana says vagrants in the city
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: now have a choice to either accept help or be arrested.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: Mayor Valerie Mezcua tells KFI's John Cobalt it's part of
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: a new program her council has introduced to offer help
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: to homeless people with mental health or drug issues.
• 23:21

• 23:25
  Speaker 4: run around naked. We're not going to allow you to
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: shit in your feces. We're not going to allow that.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: Mezcua says there are almost 400,000 people in Santa Ana
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: and everyone deserves to be able to live in a
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: clean city. How about a noisy city? A new study
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: shows the state of California is the third noisiest state
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: in the U.S. The study was done by Alpine Hearing Protection.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: They are experts in earmuffs and ear defenders to protect
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: children's hearings in noisy environments. It found while California may
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: have vast natural spaces like Yosemite National Park and Big Sur,
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: which are very peaceful places, it also has contrasting chaos
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: of cities like Los Angeles. California's maximum decibels, 71.08. The
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: EPA's recommended outdoor noise limit is 55 decibels. Dolly Parton's
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: publicist says she died at a hospital in Nashville after

  Speaker 1: sales and more than a billion online streams. Dolly Parton

  Speaker 1: was 80. Health officials are going to be spraying for
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: mosquitoes in parts of Garden Grove, Stanton, and Westminster this
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: week in response to increased sighting of the pests and
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: the higher-than-normal West Nile virus infections. The truck-mounted operation will
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: be happening from midnight to 5.30 a.m. tonight and Thursday

  Speaker 1: night near Lamson and Western Avenues. Prince Harry and his
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: wife Meghan have arrived in the UK to make a
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: fresh start in Britain. six years after moving to Montecito, California,
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: for a fresh start. At 6.05, it's Handle on the News.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: Things are heating up economically as our neighbors to the
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: north slap retaliatory tariffs on the U.S. What am I on?
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: I'm on the stream because there's so much to watch.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: How do you know what the heck to watch?
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: Well, hopefully.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: I can steer you in the right direction or steer
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: you away from the wrong direction. What I watched this
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: week was The Last House on Netflix. It's the number
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: one streaming show on Netflix. I have a sneaking suspicion
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: it has to do with that billboard that was placed
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: on Sunset Boulevard that had the guy living in a
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: living room. To promote The Last House. And it was
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: covered by, well, us here at KFI, all the TV stations.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: I think it might have even gotten on some national news.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: So it really created some buzz about this show. And
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: isn't it going to be great? And this family becomes
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: stranded in their house. They can't get out. And then
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: their supplies are dwindling. That's kind of the tease that
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: we knew about. So we thought, well, we should watch this.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: It's over two hours that I'm not going to ever
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: get back. So it stars Wagner Mora, who's the dad, Jason.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: And then Greta Lee is the mom. She plays Anne.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: You'd recognize her from The Morning Show. She's really a
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: good actress.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: And he was from Narcos.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: And OK.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: So anyway, you go, OK, got some great actors on there.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: It's going to be great. It's slow. You keep waiting
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: for something to happen. The setup before anything actually happens is.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: painfully long. It's just.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: And it doesn't really go anywhere. And there's all these
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: weird storylines and there's this monster that you don't know
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: why it's there and how did it get there and
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: why can't they get out of the house and what's
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: that that's stopping them from getting the house? And when
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: something does happen, it's kind of gross and not because
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: of anything happening outside the house. So if you're looking
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: for a great show, the short of it is this
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: isn't it. However, I kept watching.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: I was waiting for something good or something bad to happen.
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: And it really doesn't. And the ending is weird. Although
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: it does have a sort of a positive message at
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: the end. I mean, I would say watch it just
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: because it's horrible. You know, like sometimes it's so bad.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: It's good. It's called The Last House. It's on Netflix.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: And then if you watch it and you want to
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: and you love it and you disagree with me, I
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: would love to hear from you because I just thought
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: it was. Well, I thought it was terrible.
• 27:49
  Speaker 6: Terrible.
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: But how do you really feel?
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: Time to get in your business with Bloomberg's Dan Schwartzman. Morning, Dan.
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: Good morning, Amy.
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: How are you?
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: I'm good, although I'm still reeling from watching a horrible,
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: horrible movie. NVIDIA is hoping that it will not have horrible,
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: horrible reports when they release their quarterly results today.
• 28:10
  Speaker 5: Real quick, what movie is it?
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: You can't leave me hanging.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: Oh, it was The Last House, number one streaming movie
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: on Netflix. I highly recommend it because it's so bad. Seriously.
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: It's so bad, it's good. If I find the time
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: I'll watch it, I'll report back. But let's get to
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: NVIDIA here because, as you said, all eyes are on NVIDIA.
• 28:29
  Speaker 5: The AI chip makers will be reporting earnings after the
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: markets close. NVIDIA considered the best barometer for AI spending.
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: Wall Street does expect the tech giant to deliver stellar
• 28:38
  Speaker 5: results for the fiscal second quarter, which ended July 31st.
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: Analysts project their revenue nearly doubled from a year ago.
• 28:45
  Speaker 5: So we're going to see how that AI spending is
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: going with NVIDIA.
• 28:48
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: Kohl's not doing great.
• 28:52
  Speaker 5: They report earnings per share in the latest quarter that
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: were lower than they were during the same period a
• 28:56
  Speaker 5: year ago. But the retailer beat analysts estimates. Now, net
• 29:00
  Speaker 5: sales fell nearly one percent and just missed estimates. But
• 29:03
  Speaker 5: the retailer raised its full year outlook. Cole says in
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: the latest quarter, it received about one hundred and fifty
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: million dollars back in tariff refunds.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: OK, and we're hearing rumblings that there may be a
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: settlement in the works in that landmark social media case
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: with Meta.
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, sources are telling Bloomberg that Meta and a group
• 29:22
  Speaker 5: of states have discussed a possible mid-trial settlement of that
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: blockbuster case, which accuses Meta of deliberately designing Facebook and
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: Instagram to addict teens. It also poses an enormous risk
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: for the company as the attorney generals of 29 states
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: are seeking both massive financial penalties and mandatory changes to
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: how the platforms operate the tech giant amy calculating that
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: a trial loss could cost them including penalties as much
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: as 1.4 trillion.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: Dollars that's a lot especially when you're valued at 1.5
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: trillion and then we just got some numbers about economic
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: growth that just came in do you have.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: Those I do not have those.
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: Oh, okay.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: It just flashed on the wire. Economy grew to sluggish 1.5%.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's not good.
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 30:09
  Speaker 5: The PC price index just rose 0.2% month over month.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: Not good. I mean, we're not surprised, though, I don't think.
• 30:16
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: Dan Schwartzman's with Bloomberg's, and we get in your business
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: every day, and we'll do it again tomorrow. Hopefully, it's
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: with you, Dan.
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: Sounds good, Amy.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: It will be tomorrow and Friday with me.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: Oh, fabulous. I love that. Talk to you soon.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: Thank you, Amy.
• 30:30

  Speaker 4: you for having me.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much for getting up early to tell
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: us about the 27th year of Of the Nutcracker. Maybe
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: it might have been around longer, but you've been involved
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: with it, the Whittier production of it for 27 years.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: And you're getting ready for this year's with auditions on Sunday.
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: Yes, I am so excited. If you have children or
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: grandchildren who are interested, come on out because this is
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: just an amazing family here in Whittier. I was encouraged.
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: after retirement to partner with the city of Whittier to
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: do the Nutcracker again. And it brings out hundreds of
• 32:26
  Speaker 4: people to come and see it. The children involved are families.
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: We become the Whittier family, actually. We have little ones.
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: We have adults that are in the party scene. And
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: it's a wonderful experience to have these children together. And
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: they only have 15 weeks to put this production on
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: at the Whittier Center Theater.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: So they got to get busy because we're less than
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: four months from Christmas. You know, it was one of
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: the first plays I saw as a child, The Nutcracker.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's just iconic and beautiful and timeless. So
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: I love that you're doing it again. Now, do a
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: lot of the actors and dancers come back year after
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: year or is there a lot of new blood?
• 33:11
  Speaker 4: That's a really good question because I have both. I
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: have brand new children. Some children have never even... done
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: a plie before so we willing to teach them and
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: put them we always find a place for everyone whoever
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: auditions make it we have children who have never danced
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: before we have experienced dancers the alumni children they're not
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: children they're young adults that come back not only come
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: back to participate but their children come back to participate
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: oh that's cool that.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: I love that. And then when are the performances going
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: to start, Kylie? Because you said you have 15 weeks
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: to get ready, and I'm guessing you'll have several performances
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: leading up to Christmas?
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: Yes, our productions will be performed at the Whittier Center
• 33:57
  Speaker 4: Theater from December 17th through December 20th. And we even
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: offer a field trip show for children in the area
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: that come and see it. We have homeschool groups. We
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: have mom groups. And we just reach out to the
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: whole community comes out for this production.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: And Claylee, what is it about this show that keeps
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: you coming back year after year?
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: I think the community, having the community and the Whittier
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: community come together just to celebrate Christmas time. I mean,
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: the music is classical. It's beautiful. The children have heard
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: the music in commercials at the markets. In the malls,
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: on the radio. And it just brings back a beautiful
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: memory and warmth with the Nutcracker.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: And of course, you don't have to be from Whittier
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: to participate or to go. So where are we going
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: to go to get information about getting tickets and that
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: kind of thing?
• 35:00

• 35:36
  Speaker 4: And I was actually, I knew Snow White quite well.
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: She's my favorite princess, Cinderella. But I think my favorite
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: was Mary Poppins because I got to dance with the
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: chimney sweeps. And, you know, she was practically perfect in
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: every way.
• 35:50
  Speaker 6: I love that.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: What made that so magical for you?
• 35:56
  Speaker 4: Just being able to be with other people who had
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: same idea about performing and projecting themselves. Joy to the
• 36:06
  Speaker 4: audience brought great joy to my heart. And I still
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: have a lot of friends that danced at Disneyland that
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: I still are in contact with. I love it. this
• 36:17

• 37:02
  Speaker 1: going to discuss the Paramount Warner Brothers merger when the

  Speaker 1: to follow the rules.
• 37:08

• 37:11
  Speaker 9: lawsuit he and 11 other states have filed to block

  Speaker 9: the deal between the two studio giants. Bonta told The

  Speaker 9: Wrap that Paramount leaked lies about the negotiations, despite both

  Speaker 9: sides agreeing they should be confidential.
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: They can't be playing games and leaking to reporters.
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: About what is said in these meetings or what they
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: misrepresent to have been said.

• 37:47
  Speaker 1: killed guarding the entrance to the airport in Kabul during
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: the U.S. pullout in 2021. Earlier this year, the Pentagon
