- 1:01Speaker 2: to start a tony, and I went to bed very
- 1:03Speaker 2: late and couldn't quite get all of them in. There
- 1:07Speaker 2: was a very long list. In any case. All right,
- 1:12Speaker 2: we can get into the religious aspect of that, but
- 1:14Speaker 2: I'm not going to even.
- 1:16Speaker 4: Thought it was a day of a tony, so you watch.
- 1:18Speaker 2: That's why when I first said a day of a tony,
- 1:20Speaker 2: I go Tony.
- 1:21Speaker 4: Yeah, watched a bunch of musicals.
- 1:23Speaker 2: Yeah we're talking. I did talk to Tony Sorrentino yesterday.
- 1:27Speaker 2: Good guy, Yeah, good guy. And yeah that was it.
- 1:31Speaker 4: So can I tell you that opening there about the
- 1:34Speaker 4: car chase. We have never ever received so much positive,
- 1:39Speaker 4: so many positive talkbacks ever saying please continue to talk
- 1:47Speaker 4: about the car chase. Okay, well I tell you one
- 1:50Speaker 4: negative not okay.
- 1:51Speaker 2: Fair enough, fair enough. So here's what you want to
- 1:53Speaker 2: do on a regular basis, Kno, Since you are the
- 1:57Speaker 2: master of editing, why don't we just go ahead and
- 2:00Speaker 2: put together a car chase who the hell knows, and
- 2:06Speaker 2: we'll do it with sound effects, you know, all of it,
- 2:08Speaker 2: the screeching, the helicopter sound in the background, wah blah
- 2:11Speaker 2: blah blah, occasional silent siren, and we'll just make it
- 2:16Speaker 2: up and we'll have the exclusive. By the way, because
- 2:19Speaker 2: you will not be able to go to any of
- 2:20Speaker 2: the local television stations that normally carry these things cover
- 2:25Speaker 2: to cover, wall to wall.
- 2:26Speaker 4: I'm going live from the car now. I'm just gonna
- 2:30Speaker 4: look drive around looking for him, and if there aren't any.
- 2:33Speaker 2: We make them up. The one, all right, we make
- 2:35Speaker 2: them up all right, So anyway, good morning Neil, good
- 2:37Speaker 2: morning you look back are yeah, I am, yes, And
- 2:43Speaker 2: good morning Cone, Good morning Bill, and Amy there you are, Hi, Bill, welcome,
- 2:48Speaker 2: Hey you're welcome. Yeah, I done, Tony, and good morning.
- 2:53Speaker 2: And by the way, do you know that there's fasting
- 2:56Speaker 2: that goes on. You keep pour you fast for twenty
- 2:59Speaker 2: four hours and that's not only no food, but no water.
- 3:05Speaker 2: I mean it is a serious fast because, for example,
- 3:10Speaker 2: if you're a Muslim, Ramadan is thirty days, but you're
- 3:13Speaker 2: only fast during the day and then you eat like
- 3:15Speaker 2: a pig at night, which is I think a great
- 3:19Speaker 2: way to fast is you just hold off and then
- 3:22Speaker 2: you really eat, not on. You don't keep poor. I mean,
- 3:25Speaker 2: you fast, then you go to synagogue and you do
- 3:29Speaker 2: your prayers and you do all of it.
- 3:31Speaker 3: And it's uh, I gotta say this, traffic was lighter yesterday.
- 3:35Speaker 2: It was. It was much lighter. Yeah. Most most Jews,
- 3:39Speaker 2: most Jews are synagogue pleasure. They call them high holiday Jews,
- 3:46Speaker 2: where they only go to synagogue those days, not during
- 3:50Speaker 2: the rest of the year.
- 3:52Speaker 4: There's holiday Christians too, holiday Catholics.
- 3:55Speaker 2: That okay, that's fair enough, okay, fair enough. And one
- 4:01Speaker 2: of the I don't go anymore. You know that they
- 4:03Speaker 2: sell tickets to go to synagogue.
- 4:08Speaker 4: Oh, thanks for breaking the stereotype.
- 4:10Speaker 2: Yeah, well they do it. It's a fundraiser, and it's
- 4:15Speaker 2: something they don't do collection plates or anything at church
- 4:18Speaker 2: or at synagogue. It's simply well, they're not interested in coin.
- 4:23Speaker 2: They just want checks.
- 4:27Speaker 4: Tricks.
- 4:28Speaker 2: Yeah, that works all right anyway. And but it's free,
- 4:30Speaker 2: I mean if you don't want to, you know, I
- 4:33Speaker 2: mean every synagogue of course, if you want to walk
- 4:35Speaker 2: in and just say it's free, but you will sit
- 4:37Speaker 2: in the nosebleed seats. Okay, what else? What else can
- 4:41Speaker 2: I make fun of?
- 4:42Speaker 4: Now?
- 4:42Speaker 2: Religious wise? October was another religious holiday, Halloween, Oh the Pagans. Yes, yes,
- 4:50Speaker 2: let's do that. We'll do are you? Are we going
- 4:52Speaker 2: to do costumes, by the way, on Halloween at the
- 4:55Speaker 2: station this year?
- 4:57Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 4:58Speaker 4: Maybe you know what I mean, I'll do digital costumes.
- 5:01Speaker 4: Will just take pictures up to the cameras.
- 5:04Speaker 2: That actually would be a lot of fun, wouldn't it.
- 5:08Speaker 2: Let's okay, enough of that, we are digressing, which, oh,
- 5:11Speaker 2: how unusual, how unusual the show digresses? Okay, guys, it's
- 5:17Speaker 2: time to do it on a Friday morning. Oh by
- 5:20Speaker 2: the way, kno, just before we go? Do I have
- 5:22Speaker 2: this right? Only four commercials this morning? It is odd, yes,
- 5:26Speaker 2: only full. Wow, that's a very light day. Rarely, rarely
- 5:29Speaker 2: do we only get four commercials. Okay, let's do it.
- 5:33Speaker 2: It's time for Handle on the News with Amy Neil
- 5:37Speaker 2: and me lead story. And it's a big explosion, a
- 5:46Speaker 2: massive explosion at the Chevron refinery in El Segundo. And
- 5:52Speaker 2: it was what was it on the way back from
- 5:56Speaker 2: Sofi And you saw this, didn't you? Oh? I didn't
- 5:59Speaker 2: see it. Oh okay, I heard about it, all right.
- 6:03Speaker 2: Yeah I was asleep. So but oh, that's right, you
- 6:06Speaker 2: would have. That's just before ten thirty. Well, no, you
- 6:08Speaker 2: were working, you were working. Yeah. In any case, just
- 6:12Speaker 2: this huge thing. And here's the problem with any time
- 6:15Speaker 2: there is a refinery taken off line here in California,
- 6:19Speaker 2: and that is, expect gas prices to go up five
- 6:22Speaker 2: dollars a gallon because that's what ends up happening.
- 6:24Speaker 4: How long like today?
- 6:26Speaker 2: I think it was pretty quick. I think it was
- 6:28Speaker 2: up pretty quickly. Yeah, we'll see, we'll see how much
- 6:31Speaker 2: gas goes up today. It'll be several my guess. It'll
- 6:34Speaker 2: be several cents a gallon because they don't build refineries anymore.
- 6:40Speaker 2: You know, if you look at the last what forty years,
- 6:43Speaker 2: as California's population has doubled, the number of refineries has
- 6:49Speaker 2: not doubled, not even close.
- 6:51Speaker 5: And a couple more are leaving the state.
- 6:53Speaker 2: Yeah, it's even better because California has these weird rules
- 6:57Speaker 2: with the summer blend and it, so they can't buy
- 7:00Speaker 2: California can't buy gas from outside of the state. All
- 7:04Speaker 2: the other states when they run low on gas, they
- 7:06Speaker 2: just go to the pipeline and they go to the
- 7:08Speaker 2: gasoline grid will if you will, and buy from whoever,
- 7:13Speaker 2: not California. It's got to be California, which is miserable.
- 7:17Speaker 4: Yeah, says the guy that says vote yes on Prop fifty. Okay, yeah,
- 7:24Speaker 4: what does one thing have to do with the other
- 7:27Speaker 4: politicians having very specific needs for our gas in California
- 7:31Speaker 4: has nothing to do with it.
- 7:33Speaker 2: I think it's more of the environmental that's right without
- 7:37Speaker 2: I think we should let the Southern states manufacture new
- 7:41Speaker 2: districts to make sure that Republican Congressation.
- 7:46Speaker 4: Okay, that gas down.
- 7:48Speaker 2: There, you go, all right? Moving on?
- 7:51Speaker 3: Okay, So there was a car and a knife used
- 7:56Speaker 3: in an attack on a synagogue yesterday in Manchester or
- 8:00Speaker 3: two people died others were hurt. Well, now they're saying
- 8:04Speaker 3: that one of the victims actually died from a gunshot wound,
- 8:08Speaker 3: not a knife or a car. And they say that
- 8:12Speaker 3: they believe that two of the people affected were huddled
- 8:17Speaker 3: behind a door in the synagogue trying to get the
- 8:21Speaker 3: attacker not to be able to come into the building,
- 8:23Speaker 3: and they ended up getting shot. They said that the
- 8:26Speaker 3: wounds were consistent with a gunshot industry so injury. So
- 8:31Speaker 3: it appears that police may have shot them as they
- 8:33Speaker 3: were trying to go after the attacker.
- 8:35Speaker 2: From what I understand, the attacker did not have a weapon, Yeah,
- 8:38Speaker 2: no knife. He did it only with a knife, yeah,
- 8:41Speaker 2: and so, and the police killed him because he I
- 8:45Speaker 2: don't know it was it drop the knife incident or
- 8:48Speaker 2: did he get up and try to go after the cops.
- 8:49Speaker 2: I had no idea, but unfortunately friendly fire and two
- 8:54Speaker 2: members of the congregation were killed.
- 8:56Speaker 4: As you said, Amelia Earhart, so long so lost maybe located.
- 9:05Speaker 4: So Pardue University and some of the researchers there traveling
- 9:09Speaker 4: are set to travel to the South Pacific. There's this
- 9:12Speaker 4: visual anomaly. Some say that they've seen it is since
- 9:18Speaker 4: the thirties, since the late thirties, you know, not far
- 9:21Speaker 4: not long after the plane disappeared with Earhart and Noonan
- 9:25Speaker 4: her navigator. But they've seen this visual anominally this thing
- 9:31Speaker 4: that is, it's an object of some kind in the lagoon.
- 9:34Speaker 4: There and a small island which is about four hundred
- 9:37Speaker 4: miles southeast of Howland Island, which is where Earhart and
- 9:42Speaker 4: Noonan planned to their planned destination. Right, so, I guess
- 9:48Speaker 4: back in nineteen thirty seven, that's when that took place.
- 9:51Speaker 4: In nineteen thirty eight, they started seeing this little anomaly there.
- 9:55Speaker 4: So they're gonna go check and see if that anomaly
- 9:58Speaker 4: is actually the plane.
- 10:00Speaker 2: Every once in a while, you hear we found it,
- 10:02Speaker 2: we found the plane. I mean, that's been going on
- 10:05Speaker 2: for literally decades and decades. But January twentieth of this year,
- 10:10Speaker 2: they had announced that they found the plane under a
- 10:12Speaker 2: pizza parlor in Chicago. And so you just don't know.
- 10:16Speaker 4: No, But in twenty twenty, in twenty twenty they did
- 10:21Speaker 4: is when they started zeroing in on this particular location
- 10:24Speaker 4: thinking it's it, and they're just putting together.
- 10:27Speaker 2: Yeah, we know she was lost somebody and howl An
- 10:30Speaker 2: Island is this speck, and they were going to go
- 10:33Speaker 2: and refuel there she and Noonan and totally disappear. It's
- 10:37Speaker 2: one of the great disappearing stories of the previous centuries.
- 10:41Speaker 4: So you think they'd still find bones.
- 10:44Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know.
- 10:44Speaker 4: Why not in place like that?
- 10:46Speaker 2: Sure?
- 10:47Speaker 4: Yeah, did we have to find any bones in the
- 10:50Speaker 4: Titanic or is that just all consumed by animals?
- 10:54Speaker 2: I think you know, I don't even know. I don't
- 10:56Speaker 2: think there were bones because that was down to ten
- 10:58Speaker 2: thousand feet. Yeah, and I don't know if I don't
- 11:02Speaker 2: even know do bones survive? I mean this was in
- 11:04Speaker 2: a lagoon, probably forty feet underwater. I mean, this was nothing.
- 11:08Speaker 2: But that's a good question, a matter of fact. And
- 11:11Speaker 2: would you look that up? I mean, whatever's preserved is
- 11:14Speaker 2: preserved at ten thousand feet below a sea level. But
- 11:18Speaker 2: do bones survive at that depth? And I don't know
- 11:24Speaker 2: the answer.
- 11:26Speaker 4: If they find this, I mean, just think about how
- 11:28Speaker 4: many years it is taken.
- 11:32Speaker 2: Well, one hundred and well almost one hundred years, ninety
- 11:35Speaker 2: years something like that.
- 11:36Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, No human bones have been found in
- 11:39Speaker 3: the Titanic wreck.
- 11:40Speaker 2: Okay, so my guess is that they have been consumed,
- 11:44Speaker 2: were crushed, or whatever happens at ten.
- 11:47Speaker 3: Thousand jack Crushing, pressure, corrosive salt water, and deep sea
- 11:51Speaker 3: scavengers have caused them to decompose and dissolve over time.
- 11:56Speaker 2: There's the answer, exactly. But they are dense and resistant
- 11:59Speaker 2: to pressure.
- 12:01Speaker 4: So is Bill.
- 12:02Speaker 2: Thank you Today it's a foody Friday, and also ask
- 12:07Speaker 2: handle anything Friday, which is always fun sort of my
- 12:09Speaker 2: last well, my favorite hour because it's the last hour
- 12:14Speaker 2: of the last day of the last month of the
- 12:18Speaker 2: last year.
- 12:19Speaker 4: Or who you work on Saturdays.
- 12:21Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. It's a World War One reference. Okay.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Used to be yeah, used to be armistic day. Now
- 12:28Speaker 2: it's Memorial Day. All right, guys, let's do it more
- 12:31Speaker 2: handle on the news with Amy Neil and me.
- 12:33Speaker 5: In it to win it.
- 12:35Speaker 3: President Trump says the United States is in an armed
- 12:39Speaker 3: conflict with drug cartels. You sent a notification to Capitol
- 12:43Speaker 3: Hill seeking to give legal cover for taking lethal action
- 12:48Speaker 3: against potential drug traffickers. Remember, there have been several strikes
- 12:52Speaker 3: against what's the administration says are Venezuelan boats in international waters.
- 12:55Speaker 3: We've seen the video of them blowing up the boats
- 12:58Speaker 3: that the administration has said, we're filled with drugs. Some
- 13:01Speaker 3: lawmakers say those were unlawful military strikes on alleged civilian
- 13:06Speaker 3: criminals in the Western Hemisphere. So Trump directed the Pentagon
- 13:10Speaker 3: to do operations pursuant to the law of armed conflict
- 13:15Speaker 3: after he determined that the US is in a non
- 13:17Speaker 3: international armed conflict with these designated terrorist organizations that have
- 13:22Speaker 3: helped kill US citizens with drugs.
- 13:26Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't know whether that's legally within his ability
- 13:30Speaker 2: to do that, because now we may be parsing what's
- 13:33Speaker 2: going on. But I don't think too many people are
- 13:35Speaker 2: opposed to this, and it's pretty easy to tell what
- 13:39Speaker 2: one of those boats look like. You know, they're zipping
- 13:41Speaker 2: along at ninety miles an hour, and they pretty well
- 13:45Speaker 2: can tell these or drug boats.
- 13:47Speaker 4: Well, we've always called it the war on drugs.
- 13:50Speaker 6: Now we're acting now it's a legitimate Yeah, I agree,
- 13:54Speaker 6: all right, Israelly Navy, those Gaza bound flotillas, they the
- 14:00Speaker 6: the strategy keeps changing.
- 14:01Speaker 4: They're looking at getting as many of them as they
- 14:04Speaker 4: can out there. So it's harder for Israeli police officers
- 14:09Speaker 4: and the like to keep them from getting to Gaza.
- 14:13Speaker 4: So they were deployed yesterday and the southern port ofd
- 14:20Speaker 4: And to process some four hundred and fifty international activists.
- 14:24Speaker 4: That's a lot.
- 14:24Speaker 2: They forty boats up there and thinking that the Israeli
- 14:28Speaker 2: Navy or the Israeli coast Guard is not going to
- 14:31Speaker 2: be able to stop so many. They can stop them,
- 14:34Speaker 2: that's not a problem. They can throw up as many
- 14:36Speaker 2: as they want. The Israelis will stop them. Did you
- 14:38Speaker 2: know that Israel has a submarine fleet.
- 14:41Speaker 4: I did, but I learned through Yeah.
- 14:42Speaker 2: I think they have six or eight submarines out there.
- 14:45Speaker 2: And my guess is the next time of flotilla has
- 14:49Speaker 2: one or two more boats than can be picked up
- 14:52Speaker 2: by the Navy or their coastguard. You'll see a couple
- 14:56Speaker 2: of these flotilla human.
- 15:00Speaker 4: What's their biggest concern? These are humanitarian?
- 15:04Speaker 2: Yeah boats right, Well, they're concerned two things. One is
- 15:07Speaker 2: because the argument is that humanitarian aid is being diverted
- 15:11Speaker 2: by Hamas and it's being used to actually fund Hamas.
- 15:15Speaker 2: And I know they're the israel Is not putting up
- 15:17Speaker 2: a whole lot of evidence for that one. The other
- 15:20Speaker 2: one is a lot of pressure they want to put
- 15:23Speaker 2: on Gaza, and the more pressure it is, the they think,
- 15:27Speaker 2: the stronger they are Israel. It's not going to block
- 15:29Speaker 2: backfire or not. Who knows. But I'm waiting for the
- 15:34Speaker 2: Israeli military, the navy to just start torpedioing some of
- 15:37Speaker 2: these aid boats. That is entertainment just watching those things.
- 15:43Speaker 2: I think that would be bad.
- 15:45Speaker 4: Pr thornbook would be all how dah you yeah, it
- 15:51Speaker 4: would be now dah you yeah.
- 15:55Speaker 2: But realistically, for whatever purposes, human aid is just not
- 16:02Speaker 2: going in. That's all there is to it. It's just
- 16:06Speaker 2: not going in. They're stopping it. These activists are just
- 16:09Speaker 2: being stopped cold. And it's in a symbolic by the way,
- 16:11Speaker 2: it's not very much. Even if they will on forty boats,
- 16:15Speaker 2: you're not going to get there's small and they're small
- 16:18Speaker 2: boats and most of them been chartered by the Venezuela cartel.
- 16:23Speaker 2: So they're bringing in drugs. Okay, let's uh, let's move on.
- 16:28Speaker 2: I think I have a couple of stories conflated there.
- 16:32Speaker 3: Uh. An out of office message sent without consent. Apparently
- 16:38Speaker 3: several people who've been furloughed from the Department of Education
- 16:42Speaker 3: say they had out of offices. Uh. Messages that blame
- 16:46Speaker 3: the Democrats for the government's shutdown, automatically sent from their
- 16:49Speaker 3: email accounts without their consent or their knowledge. The sources
- 16:52Speaker 3: are speaking on condition of anonymity. They're worried about retribution.
- 16:56Speaker 5: Uh.
- 16:57Speaker 3: They say the move is disturbing and violating, as well
- 17:00Speaker 3: as one that could potentially impact their professional reputations.
- 17:04Speaker 2: Let me ask this, and I maybe I misheard this
- 17:07Speaker 2: yesterday that I heard a story about an official notification
- 17:13Speaker 2: from the TSA to some of its employees saying you
- 17:18Speaker 2: are furloughed because the Democrats won't come to the table
- 17:23Speaker 2: and it's their fault. Did I get that right?
- 17:26Speaker 3: I haven't seen that particular message, but it sounds like
- 17:29Speaker 3: that's what these were out of office messages.
- 17:32Speaker 2: Now this one was yet right, But this one I
- 17:34Speaker 2: had heard, and I don't know if it's true or not,
- 17:36Speaker 2: came directly from the TSA to subordinates. And I don't
- 17:39Speaker 2: know the answer. But you know, I mean, at what
- 17:42Speaker 2: point do you say, Okay, it's the Republican's fault. Now
- 17:45Speaker 2: you go ahead of these agencies saying it's the Democrats
- 17:47Speaker 2: the Democrats? I mean, is there anything that is not politicized?
- 17:51Speaker 3: Anything although your government shut down is pretty purely political,
- 17:57Speaker 3: isn't it.
- 17:58Speaker 2: No? No, I know, I don't know, I don't miss uh,
- 18:01Speaker 2: you know, please don't misunderstand. I agree. But the notification
- 18:05Speaker 2: to employees that they have been furloughed, do you think
- 18:09Speaker 2: that should have political overtones?
- 18:14Speaker 5: Well, they're coming, they're probably.
- 18:16Speaker 4: That is about as petty as you can get at that. Yeah,
- 18:18Speaker 4: if you're coming, right, Yeah, that is about as petty
- 18:23Speaker 4: as you can get. To put it in and out.
- 18:25Speaker 4: We will not be working today because of the Democrats.
- 18:31Speaker 4: Please please reach out maybe in another week to see
- 18:34Speaker 4: if those damn Democrats have have pulled their head out.
- 18:41Speaker 4: It doesn't go back to work organization. That's funny, sad,
- 18:45Speaker 4: but funny. All right. Amazon, we've talked about this before,
- 18:48Speaker 4: Bill about the private labels doing very well, like Kirkland
- 18:53Speaker 4: and at your local stores. In Amazon, although they have
- 18:58Speaker 4: their you know, a couple of private labels launching their
- 19:00Speaker 4: own private label brand called Amazon Grocery, which will be
- 19:04Speaker 4: the umbrella for all of their little brands. And this
- 19:07Speaker 4: is to challenge Costco and Walmart, any of these groups
- 19:10Speaker 4: that are coming up with their really high end private
- 19:14Speaker 4: labels that people seem to be switching before you never did.
- 19:18Speaker 4: That was the whole thing in marketing, right, you got
- 19:21Speaker 4: to grab somebody early. They have brand loyalty, and then
- 19:25Speaker 4: they die using that brand, and we're switching now. I
- 19:28Speaker 4: have many of these you know stories. Well look at
- 19:32Speaker 4: look how what.
- 19:33Speaker 2: Percentage of food as a result as a percentage of sales?
- 19:38Speaker 2: This Costco selling food? Huge chuck out? And where was
- 19:43Speaker 2: I yesterday? Of course I was at Costco. Yeah, I
- 19:47Speaker 2: was atoning at Costco and your protegraphers. I generally try
- 19:51Speaker 2: to go for the I generally try to go for
- 19:54Speaker 2: the snacks and samples. But it's Costco I go to.
- 19:57Speaker 2: There are a lot of very aggressive Korean ladies who
- 19:59Speaker 2: push be out of the way, and so should And
- 20:03Speaker 2: now you know what they're doing now is the demonstrators
- 20:07Speaker 2: are they're hawking? I mean they're hawking like they're at
- 20:11Speaker 2: a circus, midway samples, sapballs there, Try your samples and
- 20:17Speaker 2: over the good.
- 20:18Speaker 3: Ones, not the demonstrate I was thinking of protesters when.
- 20:21Speaker 5: You said demonstrate. No, no, you're talking about the people
- 20:23Speaker 5: who give out the samples.
- 20:24Speaker 2: Didn't I say, Oh, demonstrators as in those who demonstrate, Okay,
- 20:29Speaker 2: I got it, and yeah, they're I want to go
- 20:31Speaker 2: to them and go, hey, you know what, there's some
- 20:32Speaker 2: English second language courses at your junior college. You may
- 20:36Speaker 2: want to consider those. Book. But that's a no no
- 20:42Speaker 2: because that's everybody who works at Costco and hands out samples.
- 20:48Speaker 4: You're still a racist, Well yeah, well that's one you'll
- 20:51Speaker 4: go to a bad one.
- 20:54Speaker 2: Let me ask some me. If you hate every single race,
- 20:57Speaker 2: does that make you a racist? If you if you
- 21:01Speaker 2: hate your own race, does that make your races?
- 21:04Speaker 4: Yeah, it just means that you're well rounded.
- 21:08Speaker 3: Turning out the lights in the city of Lights. Nationwide
- 21:12Speaker 3: strikes in France have led to the closure of the
- 21:15Speaker 3: Eiffel Tower. About eighty five thousand demonstrators hit the streets
- 21:19Speaker 3: to protest governments spending cuts. So they said, okay, fine,
- 21:24Speaker 3: the Eiffel Tower is shutting down. No reopening date has
- 21:27Speaker 3: been posted as of last night.
- 21:30Speaker 5: The strikes come.
- 21:31Speaker 3: As President Macron and his new Prime Minister Sebastian Lacarneu
- 21:36Speaker 3: negotiate the country's budget. Union leaders are advocating for more
- 21:41Speaker 3: spending on public services, a reversal of an increase to
- 21:44Speaker 3: the retirement age, and higher taxes for the wealthy.
- 21:46Speaker 2: Right, Well, that's a franch that's the French. I mean
- 21:49Speaker 2: they got a little upset with the retirement age of
- 21:51Speaker 2: thirty six and one can bring it down to thirty four.
- 21:54Speaker 2: And they are nine weeks of vacation. Now, a couple
- 21:57Speaker 2: things about the Eiffel Tower. If you ever get to
- 21:59Speaker 2: go to France, first place to see the Eiffel Tower
- 22:02Speaker 2: is on the Eiffel Tower. It is a monumental waste
- 22:06Speaker 2: of time. What you want to do is see the
- 22:08Speaker 2: Eiffel Tower and that lit up against the skylight of.
- 22:14Speaker 4: Paris.
- 22:15Speaker 2: And so there are a couple of great places to
- 22:18Speaker 2: do it. So I don't think it's any great loss
- 22:20Speaker 2: for those. And it's a fortune to get up there,
- 22:22Speaker 2: and you got to climb the stairs. And if you
- 22:24Speaker 2: want to have food there the Jules Verne restaurant. It's
- 22:27Speaker 2: a Michelin star restaurant. It's nine thousand dollars for a meal.
- 22:31Speaker 2: I mean it's crazy, man, Yeah, no, it's so no
- 22:36Speaker 2: great shakes. You know, this is Europe. You know in Europe,
- 22:39Speaker 2: go to in Italy, for example, you can go to
- 22:42Speaker 2: the newspaper in Italy and they print up the dates
- 22:46Speaker 2: of the strikes that are going to be happening throughout
- 22:48Speaker 2: the year. Seriously, they print up the dates.
- 22:53Speaker 4: When do they get anything done? Does anybody in Europe
- 22:57Speaker 4: actually work? It's weird. They want to retire by noon?
- 23:01Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty much.
- 23:02Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, more time for our art, all right.
- 23:06Speaker 4: Texas Mega Church founder m mmm mmmm. He is pleading
- 23:12Speaker 4: guilty to sexual abuse. What a horrible story. Mega Church
- 23:17Speaker 4: founder Robert Morris has been accused and he finally coped
- 23:23Speaker 4: to it. Uh, it's you know, to have a predator
- 23:28Speaker 4: like this in a power position over a church, especially
- 23:32Speaker 4: this large is horrific. And he didn't apologize either. The
- 23:38Speaker 4: young girl said that she came forward. What a brave
- 23:42Speaker 4: human she is to say that there that she knows
- 23:46Speaker 4: that she can't be the only one to any of
- 23:49Speaker 4: these stories.
- 23:50Speaker 2: When you think about the kind of craziness going out there.
- 23:56Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I told John Cobalt once, I said,
- 24:00Speaker 4: not everybody in the church is crazy, but everybody everybody
- 24:03Speaker 4: that's crazy is in a church.
- 24:05Speaker 2: That makes sense.
- 24:06Speaker 4: So there's a difference to it. But the religion does
- 24:09Speaker 4: attract nuts. Not everybody is nuts.
- 24:12Speaker 2: But it's because it's a great place, that's a good
- 24:16Speaker 2: place to be. Hidden. You know, why are so many,
- 24:19Speaker 2: for example, Scout leaders and clergymen. Why there are so
- 24:23Speaker 2: many I think relatively speaking. I don't know the statistics
- 24:26Speaker 2: percentage wise, but those are great organizations if you are
- 24:29Speaker 2: a child predator to be protected and stay hidden. Particularly
- 24:34Speaker 2: I mean the Catholic Church, which actually protected those people
- 24:37Speaker 2: outright for decades and decades, which is knowing about it.
- 24:43Speaker 4: Yeah, one of the reasons why I left the Catholic Church, honestly.
- 24:48Speaker 5: So, somebody's lurking off the coast.
- 24:51Speaker 3: Venezuela says it has detected US fighter jets near its
- 24:56Speaker 3: Caribbean coast. The Defense minister said it was a provocation
- 25:01Speaker 3: by the United States opposed a threat to national security.
- 25:04Speaker 3: Later yesterday, the Venezuelan government then issued a statement saying
- 25:08Speaker 3: the aircraft had been detected about forty six miles off
- 25:11Speaker 3: the coast, away from standard territorial waters, which are about
- 25:15Speaker 3: twelve nautical miles off coast.
- 25:18Speaker 2: This is international waters. A provocation. I think Venezuela should
- 25:23Speaker 2: send up one or two of its own fighter jets
- 25:25Speaker 2: and maybe attack American planes. What do you think that'll
- 25:28Speaker 2: show the US? Will show them provocation?
- 25:34Speaker 4: Right? Hey?
- 25:35Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you know, we fly all over the place.
- 25:37Speaker 2: They fly all over the place. You know, Russians fly
- 25:41Speaker 2: all over the place. The US goes near Russian airspace.
- 25:44Speaker 2: It just happens all the time. Venezuela. This guy Maduro
- 25:47Speaker 2: is kind of really crazy. He's yeah, he's up to
- 25:51Speaker 2: his eyeballs and all the bad stuff that's going on
- 25:54Speaker 2: out there. California News, Oh, I thought you were going
- 25:59Speaker 2: to go to a break.
- 26:00Speaker 4: No, sure, the votes of Californians. You know, we're Dilley Deli.
- 26:06Speaker 4: And you get at last minute November fourth, you drop
- 26:10Speaker 4: your ballot in a mail box, and now you have
- 26:13Speaker 4: Attorney General Rob Bonta and Secretary of State Shirley Weber.
- 26:17Speaker 4: They're saying, you know, they may not be counted because
- 26:23Speaker 4: the speed in which the US Postal Service gets them
- 26:26Speaker 4: and puts the stamp on them. They have to have
- 26:28Speaker 4: the date, stamp and all that on them beforehand. And
- 26:32Speaker 4: they said, you know, this is a problem because you
- 26:35Speaker 4: have voters who live fifty miles or more from regional
- 26:39Speaker 4: mail processing facilities in Los Angeles, Belt Garden, San Diego,
- 26:42Speaker 4: Santa Clarita and these areas that may not be eligible
- 26:49Speaker 4: because of the postmark has to be on or before
- 26:52Speaker 4: election day.
- 26:53Speaker 2: Yeah. So if you're going to vote, vote early, and
- 26:55Speaker 2: as Neil said, in this case, if you dilly, there
- 26:59Speaker 2: will be no Deli.
- 27:01Speaker 4: Yeah. That's my biggest concern is that that.
- 27:03Speaker 2: Is well, you started that.
- 27:05Speaker 4: That should be your new tag, just like Conway Deale Deli.
- 27:08Speaker 2: Why don't we take a break, now, what do you think?
- 27:10Speaker 4: And will?
- 27:12Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, and we'll finish Dagle on the news, all right, Daly. Uh.
- 27:17Speaker 3: There are penalties for playing with the president. Governor Newsom
- 27:22Speaker 3: has threatened to cut billions of dollars in state funding
- 27:26Speaker 3: to universities, including usc UH, to any campus that agrees
- 27:31Speaker 3: to a Trump administration UH compact to enact sweeping, largely
- 27:36Speaker 3: conservative campus policies in exchange for prior priority access to funding.
- 27:43Speaker 3: Newsom said if any California university signs this radical agreement,
- 27:46Speaker 3: they will lose billions in state funding, including cal grants.
- 27:50Speaker 3: California will not bankroll schools that sell out their students, professors, researchers,
- 27:54Speaker 3: and surrender academic freedoms.
- 27:57Speaker 2: This is well, I'm going to talk more about this
- 27:59Speaker 2: seven o'clock. This is Newsome and the President playing chicken
- 28:03Speaker 2: with each other at the university level, particularly by the way,
- 28:06Speaker 2: University California Davis, where they study poultry sciences, that's where
- 28:11Speaker 2: they really are playing chicken. The point is what You're fine, okay,
- 28:17Speaker 2: thank you.
- 28:17Speaker 4: Very much, But it was so no right and wrong anymore.
- 28:21Speaker 4: No one's standing up for what's best. They're just playing
- 28:23Speaker 4: against each other, and we get to sit here and
- 28:26Speaker 4: get screwed as I think.
- 28:27Speaker 2: I'm going to give Newsome the moral high ground on
- 28:31Speaker 2: this one, I really am, because it's it's fighting back
- 28:34Speaker 2: for what I believe is a position that is not fit.
- 28:38Speaker 4: And then the right would say that Trump was fighting
- 28:41Speaker 4: a back against the democratic rule from previous administrations, and
- 28:47Speaker 4: then we keep going back to an infinite regression.
- 28:50Speaker 2: Except and I'm going to throw something in university, whether
- 28:53Speaker 2: it was liberal or liberal or conservative, and I happen
- 28:58Speaker 2: to think the universities are have been wildly left wing.
- 29:01Speaker 4: I'm not ugamating to start that way.
- 29:04Speaker 2: It's well it's even going on that way for Oh yeah, okay,
- 29:08Speaker 2: let's go to John Okay, let's go to John Harvard.
- 29:10Speaker 2: You know who started this little theo theologialological But thank
- 29:15Speaker 2: you back in the sixteen hundreds in Massachusetts, I'm talking
- 29:18Speaker 2: about modern day universities which are wildly left wing, but
- 29:22Speaker 2: they've been left alone. The point is academic freedom is
- 29:26Speaker 2: academic freedom, and that is the point. He's not going
- 29:30Speaker 2: to see the Trump administries just start screaming about Brigham
- 29:32Speaker 2: Young University. Oh no, that's different. So that's the point
- 29:37Speaker 2: I'm making, all right, Neil. Yeah, I can't hear you,
- 29:42Speaker 2: But that's a say.
- 29:43Speaker 4: If you justify these things, there is no moral ground.
- 29:45Speaker 4: It's just people coming up with their own excuses. Is twy,
- 29:48Speaker 4: it's moral.
- 29:49Speaker 2: I am going to talk more about that at seven
- 29:51Speaker 2: o'clock and dive into the political aspects of that, and
- 29:54Speaker 2: the morality will leave to mister moral. And that's over
- 29:58Speaker 2: there in the where Neil hangs out. God forbid reason,
- 30:02Speaker 2: there's a morality center of our show. Moving on, it,
- 30:06Speaker 2: ain't you, sister, Neil eure Rope.
- 30:13Speaker 4: I'm taking my time. Yeah, woman admits to stealing two
- 30:17Speaker 4: point eight million. She worked for an instant noodle company
- 30:21Speaker 4: and now she's in hot water in Orange County. You
- 30:27Speaker 4: had this woman. She oversaw all the you know, the
- 30:31Speaker 4: moneies going on, and those are the ones that usually
- 30:34Speaker 4: embezzle slowly but surely over the years between twenty seventeen
- 30:38Speaker 4: and twenty twenty three, she embezzled more than two point
- 30:41Speaker 4: eight million. And you know, the first thing people do,
- 30:44Speaker 4: it's not like they save and they you know, it's
- 30:46Speaker 4: like all these riches like jewelry and designer bags, and
- 30:54Speaker 4: she brought bought property in Alabama and Hawaii and all
- 30:58Speaker 4: these things. And you eventually get caught. Somebody goes the
- 31:02Speaker 4: numbers aren't numbering, and they come after you.
- 31:07Speaker 2: Okay, this was Oh it was a ramen company.
- 31:10Speaker 5: Yeses a noodle company.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Okay. Were you a college student eating a lot of ramen?
- 31:16Speaker 5: Yes?
- 31:17Speaker 4: Was that you?
- 31:18Speaker 5: Okay, I still eat a lot of romen.
- 31:20Speaker 2: Glad to hear that.
- 31:21Speaker 5: I love it.
- 31:21Speaker 2: Oh, that's right, because you work here at iHeart there
- 31:23Speaker 2: you go. Of course you eat a lot of ramen.
- 31:25Speaker 5: Oh the drones.
- 31:27Speaker 3: Munich Airport in Germany is becoming the latest airport to
- 31:31Speaker 3: have to shut down because of drone sightings a little
- 31:35Speaker 3: too close to for comfort. The airport was shut for
- 31:41Speaker 3: several hours. Seventeen flights were grounded. It was shut down
- 31:46Speaker 3: from about ten pm until five am the next day.
- 31:48Speaker 3: Fifteen arriving flights had to be diverted to other cities
- 31:52Speaker 3: because of the drone sightings. They had about three thousand
- 31:57Speaker 3: passengers affected, and so they had picked of some of
- 32:01Speaker 3: the passengers who were just stuck there overnight, sleeping in
- 32:05Speaker 3: a row of camp beds, and they have food and
- 32:07Speaker 3: drink and blanket.
- 32:08Speaker 2: Have this become more and more prevalent. What a problem
- 32:10Speaker 2: gonna have to just develop? And I'm assuming the technology's
- 32:12Speaker 2: out there, some kind of death ray. A drone goes
- 32:15Speaker 2: too close to an airport, boom just takes it out
- 32:17Speaker 2: right there and just it falls down.
- 32:20Speaker 4: Well, it's all done by you know RF. It's all
- 32:23Speaker 4: radio frequencies. I'm surprised they.
- 32:24Speaker 2: But they can just knock out right drop those frequents,
- 32:28Speaker 2: knock them down. Why, it's just why do you need this?
- 32:31Speaker 2: You know these cockroaches who decide they're going to interfere
- 32:34Speaker 2: in commercial airspace near airports where people land, where air
- 32:40Speaker 2: traffic controllers are too busy not working because they're out
- 32:44Speaker 2: on strike. Okay, we'll be back with that. Kf I
