Here's a lot 77 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 5: of moisture showing up that's on the ground right now, 78 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 5: or I should say not hitting the ground zones virga. 79 00:03:58,240 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 5: And that's going to be the rain that you're gonna 80 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 5: feel much later when it does hit the ground, and 81 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 5: quite a bit still coming our way. So we're gonna 82 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 5: be tracking all that for you. On the temperatures, we're 83 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 5: gonna stay fairly mi out here.

So here's not going to set 88 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 5: up for us. The next couple of days or so, 89 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 5: we'll see some rain moving in late tomorrow. The cloud's 90 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 5: building more and more today and into Thursday, and then 91 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 5: by Friday. 92 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 2: Now I've seen. 93 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 5: The really heavier rain and we're talking about some pretty 94 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 5: good amounts. 95 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 2: One to two inches on Friday. One to two inches 96 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 2: on Friday is a big deal. 97 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 5: And that's kind of just the beginning, because there's still 98 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 5: more to come. 99 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 2: We head into now Saturday. Now we got more intense. 100 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 5: Rain building up besides the heavy stuff on Friday, more 101 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 5: so on Saturday, more rain added on. So flooding could 102 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 5: then be a concern for us over southern California. 103 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:54,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. 104 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 3: And then in Malibu and Pacific Palisades especially and Altadena 105 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 3: looking at pot pssible mud slides Friday and Saturday when 106 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 3: the heavy rain comes in. 107 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 6: As we're at fire Station seventy in Malibu, this is 108 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,479 Speaker 6: one of several areas that people can come and fill 109 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,799 Speaker 6: up sandbags to try and protect their property. There's actually 110 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 6: a bit of a problem here this morning. They had 111 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 6: a pound of about one thousand sandbags like this out overnight. 112 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 3: Someone that technology really hasn't improved over the last thousand years. 113 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 3: She's literally putting sand in a bag and tying it 114 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 3: off and taking it home maybe ten thousand years. All 115 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 3: these other technologies haven't improved. 116 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 2: You know. The TV set isn't what it used to be. 117 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 3: You know, it's not a seven hundred pound tube that 118 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 3: you have to drag, you know, through the house to 119 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 3: and it takes three minutes to warm up before you 120 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 3: can watch it. That's improved a lot. Computers obviously improved 121 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 3: a lot. But the sandbag other than that new one. 122 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 3: That home depot sells quick Dam. That's like the newest technology, 123 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 3: but they're a little expensive. They do work really well. 124 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 3: We have three or four met home last couple of years. 125 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 3: During the rain, they do work. The quick dam it's 126 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 3: called quick dam. It weighs about a pound and a half. 127 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 3: They stretch out to about ten feet long, and then 128 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 3: they absorb water and then they actually become their own 129 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 3: sand bags as more moisture and more water, you know, 130 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 3: soaks into them. And it's really a great way to 131 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 3: protect your house. I don't know if there's any left 132 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 3: at Low's at home Depot, but if you can get 133 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 3: in there, it's called quick Dam. They're about thirty thirty 134 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 3: five bucks and it'll be the best thirty to thirty 135 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 3: five bucks you've ever spent, if it can save you, you know, 136 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 3: from having to change your carpet out or your hardwood 137 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 3: floors because your home is soaking. 138 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 2: Wet took all of them. 139 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 6: So anyone showing up here this morning had no way 140 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 6: to get all this sand into a bag to get 141 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:47,919 Speaker 6: it back to their property. They had to drive to 142 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 6: another location, get another pollet of bags and bring it 143 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 6: out here. 144 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 3: And you know, and these men and women who are 145 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 3: in their eighties, they can't fill up a forty pounds 146 00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 3: sand bag and take it home. I hope there's some 147 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 3: people out there helping the older folks out with doing this. 148 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 6: They are once again on site also the Malibu Library. 149 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 6: But as folks here in Malibu discovered back in February, 150 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 6: even if you have sandbags lined up, sometimes a wall 151 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 6: of mud coming down a hill, it's not gonna stop 152 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 6: what's coming down. Like we saw several months ago here 153 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 6: in Malibu. There are two twenty twenty five dates etched 154 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 6: into everyone's mind. One, of course, is January seventh, when 155 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 6: the Palisades fire ripped through town. The other is February thirteenth, 156 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 6: when a storm caused massive mud slides down the hillsides 157 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 6: above nearly wiped us out. Duke's Malibu was completely overtaken 158 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 6: by mud, and here we are eleven months later and 159 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 6: they're still not open. 160 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 7: If you told me it would take you this long, 161 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 7: I told you we were crazy. We were initially thinking 162 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 7: partial by July and fully by maybe Labor Day, And 163 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 7: now you know, I'll be getting into twenty twenty six, 164 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 7: maybe by the year anniversary. 165 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 6: With another major storm coming this week, Caltrans put up 166 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 6: k rail to try and prevent the same thing from 167 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 6: happening again. 168 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 7: We jetted all of our drains. We'll do some stuff 169 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 7: on the roof. It's like you said, like you're saying 170 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 7: right there too, you minimize interior leaks. 171 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 3: You know, you may remember this also at Dukes there 172 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 3: was a fireman, I think it was a fire captain 173 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 3: driving one of those white SUVs, and the mud came 174 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 3: down and knocked him into the Pacific Ocean, him, his car, 175 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 3: his gear, right into the ocean. He ended up in 176 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 3: the Pacific. He made it, He survived. But man, is 177 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 3: that water powerful when it comes off these hills. 178 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 7: But it's really, like I said, just keeping the water out. 179 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 6: And it's hard. 180 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 4: We don't want a lot of mud back on this 181 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 4: property no. 182 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,199 Speaker 6: Right across pch Lynn Biehler saw mud inundate her Malibu 183 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 6: Bungalows flower shop back in February. It took her weeks 184 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 6: to clear it all out. 185 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 2: It's called one wheelbarrow at the time. 186 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 6: Today she went to get sand from nearby Station seventy 187 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 6: and lined her property with sandbags. 188 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,719 Speaker 1: We're all working really hard to bring this part of 189 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 1: Malibu back, So it is a struggle. 190 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 2: It's a struggle. 191 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, Malibu has been hit really hard with fires and 192 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 3: then floods now we got this weekend. 193 00:08:58,440 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 2: It's tough out there. 194 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 6: Remnants of the fire remain in this part of Malibu. 195 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 6: You can see trees having burn scars. In fact, this 196 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 6: hillside you can see has given way recently. That again 197 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 6: is the concern here. La County issuing an evacuation warning 198 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,319 Speaker 6: for recent burn scars, including the Palisades burnscar that specific 199 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 6: Palisades and Malibu. The hope is that the hillsides hold 200 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 6: Everything that could have come down came down back in 201 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 6: February in our spring storms. But with the amount of 202 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 6: rain that is coming this week, there was a lot 203 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 6: of concern, a lot of anxiety that we might have 204 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 6: a repeat of what we saw back here in February. 205 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 6: We'll see if people utilize these sandbags, the k rails 206 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 6: and just have a go bag ready in the event 207 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 6: you're forced to evacuate. For now, we're live in Malibu, 208 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 6: Jury Rand ABC seven.

Michael Monks, Hi, you bub my 221 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 3: pleasure to be here on this rather dreary Wednesday. We're 222 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 3: keeping an eye on this now. I know where you 223 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 3: come from. Northern Kentucky. 224 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 2: Rain is not news, no, unless it we're threatening the 225 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 2: Ohio River to crest. 226 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 3: Right, I went to I was I've been to Cincinnati 227 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 3: and Cleveland and Columbus, and remember being in Cincinnati at 228 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 3: a baseball game and they said, there's a tornado watch 229 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 3: that turned into a tornado warning. They stopped the game 230 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 3: for about eight seconds blue by and then they continue 231 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 3: the game. 232 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're a different breed there. We're tough, very tough. Yeah. Yeah, 233 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 2: I mean we had what a half an inch here 234 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago. Everybody was in meltdown. But 235 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 2: I don't criticize different parts of the country when they 236 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 2: have weather that's not as extreme as what we've experienced, 237 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 2: because you just have different topography. Sure, you have different 238 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 2: types of expectations and different regularity when it comes to 239 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 2: this type of stuff. 240 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 3: And on the other hand, if you guys ever get 241 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 3: a three point four earthquake, that's the talk that month long. 242 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 2: We did. I think the last time was like twelve 243 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: years ago. A nice little shaker, you felt it, right, 244 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 2: no damage, nothing serious, but something like what would be 245 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 2: a regular old Tuesday here in southern California was definitely 246 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 2: the talk of the town for like four days. 247 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,359 Speaker 3: All right, let's talk Rent. What are they doing downtown 248 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 3: with Rent? 249 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 2: Well up? There's something called rent stabilized units. In the 250 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 2: city of Los Angeles. There's more than six hundred and 251 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 2: fifty thousand of these things. That means that the rent 252 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 2: can only be raised a certain amount of money. I 253 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 2: don't live in one of those units, so my landlord 254 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 2: can email me when the lease is up and say, 255 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 2: your rent's going up a thousand bucks. I don't have 256 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 2: that protection. A lot of renters do have a protection. 257 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 2: Right now. That cap is eight percent. Oh, that's a lot. 258 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 2: So the rent can't go up more than eight percent. 259 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 2: And there are folks who would agree with you that 260 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 2: eight percent is a lot, except for the fact that 261 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 2: the people own the properties are saying, look, rents have 262 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 2: not gone up that much in recent years. They're staying 263 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 2: in they're aligned with the market. And we're also getting 264 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 2: hurt on cost. The cost of owning buildings has gone up. 265 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,679 Speaker 2: Insurance is expensive, utilities are expensive. The city's jacked up 266 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 2: cost related to trash collection and sanitation and other things 267 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:41,959 Speaker 2: like that. So we can't have any types of restrictions 268 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 2: that are this extreme. The proposal tim was to cap 269 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 2: the rent increases at three percent. That sounds better, as 270 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 2: low as zero percent, as long as it kept up 271 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 2: with no more than sixty percent of the rate of inflation. 272 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 2: So it's kind of a weird math thing. And that's 273 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 2: how it was presented at City Hall today. You had 274 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 2: a lot of people go out to speak, tenants coming 275 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 2: out to speak, and property owners and pure property managers 276 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 2: coming out to speak. It looked like Congress. You had 277 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 2: one side on one side of the City Hall and 278 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 2: the other on the other side. You'd have applause at once, 279 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:15,559 Speaker 2: like the State of the Union. Right. 280 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 3: But the problem with that, mister Monks, is that when 281 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 3: you do have these, when you establish these these ceilings 282 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 3: for rent, a lot of these landlords will hit the 283 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 3: ceiling because they don't know ten years down the line 284 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 3: if they go zero zero, zero zero, and then they're 285 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 3: here with a big bill, they'll go, oh, we can 286 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 3: only get eight percent. So they will do eight percent 287 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,079 Speaker 3: every year. And let's say you pay three thousand dollars 288 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 3: a month in downtown ally, which is not unusual, right, 289 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 3: And so the very first year it goes to thirty 290 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 3: two forty, then two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, 291 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 3: nine ten. In ten years, the three thousand dollars rent 292 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 3: is sixty five hundred dollars a month in ten years. 293 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 3: In ten years, yeah, and that's too much. 294 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 2: You know. 295 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 3: They just did this thing in Burbank where they set 296 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 3: this feeling at four percent. They did overnight. They didn't 297 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 3: really ask many people, and they said four percent. You 298 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,079 Speaker 3: can't do more than four percent. Well, a lot of 299 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 3: the people own these buildings immediately put in the four percent, 300 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 3: and they'll do that every single year. So the rent's 301 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 3: going to go up more with these with these you know, 302 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 3: with these caps. 303 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 2: The other potential fallout is folks who own apartments that 304 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 2: are rent stabilized may sell their units and may have 305 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 2: them sold to folks who don't participate in this type 306 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 2: of program, so you might have fewer of those properties 307 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 2: that are available. There were folks who were talking about 308 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 2: getting out of this business because of the restriction. There 309 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 2: was also a point made by Councilman Monica Rodriguez, who 310 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 2: did ultimately vote in support of this cap, which was altered. 311 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 2: I should note it was marked at four percent right 312 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 2: with ninety percent of the rate of inflation, so it 313 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 2: was a little bit better than what the property owners wanted, 314 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 2: a little bit worse than what the tenants wanted. So 315 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 2: there was a compromise made on the floor. But she said, 316 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 2: this city makes it very expensive to live here. So 317 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 2: when we talk about the cost of living, we need 318 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 2: to be talking about the trash hikes and the taxes 319 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 2: and those sorts of things that we have established here. 320 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 2: That is also on our hands. 321 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 3: But eight percent is astronomical. I mean, you know, eight percent, 322 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 3: you're quickly going to double your rent in you know, 323 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 3: seven or eight. 324 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 2: But the example you gave him was of a market 325 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 2: rate rent, right, And so I pay a market rate 326 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 2: and I'll just tell you I pay twenty three hundred 327 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 2: dollars a month. That's pretty good pride off, not a 328 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 2: bad price. It's a decent apartment, good thousand square feet 329 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 2: loft in downtown LA. It's skid row near right right, 330 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 2: So that's you know, there's a bit of a trade off. 331 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 3: When you rented it, did it say skid skid row adjacent? 332 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 2: No, that would be a bad real estate agent and 333 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 2: put that in there. It said it said fashion district. 334 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 2: All right, you stay about it, say yeah, we're going to. 335 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 3: Talk about because they voted on something else today, okay, 336 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 3: vote on something else. And you were a hero over 337 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 3: the last time we talk about that. Yes, yes, and 338 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 3: I'll I'll tell you why.

I know 351 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 3: you accused me of doing that, but I think that 352 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 3: the audience needs to know that. 353 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 2: You saved a life. I saved an animal. Okay, that's 354 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 2: a life. It's a life. She's somebody, she is. 355 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, And there was a cat on skid row and 356 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 3: you and your spouse saved that cat and adopted it. 357 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 2: We'd seen this cat for a few nights, hanging down 358 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 2: the parking lot and skid row, as we noted my 359 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 2: apartments skid row near Okay, so I'm far from skid 360 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 2: row a block. In fact, my part, my parking lot 361 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 2: is now surrounded by tents. Skid Row is absorbing the 362 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 2: fashion district. Has skid Row gotten closer to you since 363 00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 2: you've been down there? Okay, yeah, maybe let me find absolutely. Yeah, 364 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 2: I mean all my neighbors live in tents, Okay, basically, yeah, 365 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 2: And so there and there are animals on skid Rush. 366 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 2: Sure people have dogs and they live in the tent. 367 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 2: But I saw a couple of cats hanging outside, and 368 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 2: it's kind of heartbreaking. So like, let's go see if 369 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,679 Speaker 2: we can drop a little bit of food, you know, 370 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 2: And we did on Sunday, left a little bit of 371 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 2: food for this gray cat who was very small and 372 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,679 Speaker 2: this orange cat who looked to be a little more grown, 373 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 2: and put the food out. They didn't want to come 374 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 2: near us, so we walked away and they went and 375 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,479 Speaker 2: they ate it. When I left here on Monday and 376 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 2: got home, I saw the gray cat again walking around 377 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,159 Speaker 2: looking for something to eat. Right, So I go in 378 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 2: the little tea and at the bottom of our apartment 379 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 2: and I buy a little can a big can actually, 380 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 2: of wet food, and I take it over to this 381 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 2: cat and This cat eats every I mean licking the 382 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,360 Speaker 2: crevices of this can. This cat is starving, maybe maybe 383 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 2: the first can of food he's ever had. Completely. We 384 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 2: have a cat, my little free Holdies. It lives upstairs 385 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 2: with us and loves to watch the cats from the window. 386 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 2: But I called the spouse and we were thinking about 387 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 2: getting a new cat. Anyway. In fact, that day we 388 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 2: had gotten text messages from a friend of a friend 389 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 2: who's like, I've got some kittens, come take a look, 390 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 2: and we were going to perfect time. I saw this 391 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 2: cat starving, and after she ate, she came over and 392 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 2: just started rubbing on us and purring and falling on 393 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 2: the ground. It's like, go get the kennel. We go, 394 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 2: get the kennel. We bring it down, she gets right 395 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 2: in it. She had enough. Yeah, and she has this 396 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 2: meal like a cat that you would expect to have 397 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 2: on skid row where life is rough. It's smokers. Yeah, 398 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 2: I mean she's had, she's been around the block. Okay, 399 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 2: so she's filthy also, So we take her up and 400 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 2: we immediately try to wash her. Here's the problem. We 401 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 2: already have a cat, and we live in a loft 402 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,120 Speaker 2: apartment and they tell you if you're getting a second cat, 403 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 2: this has to be sort of uh need intervals, intervals. 404 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 2: These cats they'll get along fine after a while, deally, ok. 405 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 2: But at first you've got to have maybe the new 406 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 2: cat in just one room. We only have one room. 407 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,439 Speaker 2: So I'm at Walmart in Southgate at nine thirty at 408 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 2: night trying to find something that I can keep this 409 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 2: cat in. And I find a dog pen that's meant 410 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 2: for a yard, and I bring it up and I 411 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 2: put her in. We could a blanket over top of 412 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 2: it to make her feel secure. She was in there. 413 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 2: She ended up being comfortable all night long. It was 414 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:30,400 Speaker 2: wow wow, And the cat. Milo's looking at this cat like, oh, 415 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 2: kissing at it a little bit, but not too much. Zoo. 416 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 2: Completely complete madhouse. I had to call in sick to 417 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 2: work yesterday. Yes what I was honest, I was like, love, 418 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 2: I saved a cat. I've got to get it to 419 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 2: the vet today. And that's what we did. Found out 420 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 2: it's a girl. Oh good, Okay, what was the other cat? 421 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 2: Is the other cat of girl? A boy? Boy? Okay? 422 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 2: Now this cat we have named dos oh like as 423 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 2: in number two, number two? Okay, do well. We thought 424 00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 2: it was a boy. I thought it was a good uh. 425 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 4: And what was what was that number two? 426 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:07,679 Speaker 2: Yes, it's exactly a little a little turd. Uh, yes, absolutely, 427 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 2: So we thought it was a boy. I thought it 428 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 2: was a boy and so does sound like a cute 429 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 2: name for a boy cat? And now she's stuck with 430 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,360 Speaker 2: this moniker. But she's healthy, no fleas, none of that. 431 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 2: But she is apparently missing her front teeth, not the incisors, 432 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 2: but the little tiny feet that they have. But she's 433 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 2: young enough where they'll still grow. Yeah, but I also 434 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 2: learned she's she's she may have been had by a 435 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 2: male cat. Oh no, streets at are very young age, 436 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 2: because they have little marks on the back of her 437 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 2: neck where the male cat kind of holds on. Oh 438 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 2: my god. Like this poor tramp has been all over 439 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 2: skid run and you saved her, brought her in. That's great. 440 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 2: A skid row hooker cat. 441 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 3: And maybe that maybe that that kitten's transitioning. Did you 442 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 3: think about that? 443 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 2: I hope not. I can't deal with that right now. 444 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 2: It's enough drama just bringing two cats, and I don't 445 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 2: need any like social pressure. And so when you left today, 446 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 2: you left them both in trouble, and I know the 447 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 2: listeners are going to call in, and rightfully so, because 448 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,919 Speaker 2: this cat did not like being in the kennel. The 449 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 2: cat likes being under the bed. When would let her 450 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 2: out to kind of snip around, she'd go right under 451 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 2: the bed and stay there. Milo had kind of kept 452 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 2: his distance while monitoring her occasional hissing. We both went 453 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 2: to work today and we left dos under the bed 454 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 2: and Milo is out, So in about thirty minutes, i'll 455 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 2: know if they're still alive. They'll be alive. 456 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 3: They may have had one fight, but they'll go to 457 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 3: their separate corners. And Buddy, it really breaks my heart 458 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 3: when I see dogs and cats outside and strays and 459 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 3: on their own, because you can see it in their 460 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 3: eyes that they don't want to be there. And you 461 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 3: saved the life, Buddy, You save that cat's life. And 462 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,159 Speaker 3: I hope that cat brings you as much joy as 463 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 3: you brought that cat. 464 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 2: I hope so too. She does like us. She's just 465 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 2: a little scared and a little confused. That's all to 466 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 2: be understood, So we're giving her time.

If I could afford an 586 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 3: altic one, I'd buy one in a hard paton. 587 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,159 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, we've you got to spend a grand to 588 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 2: get a good fake tree. 589 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 4: That's in there in lies the rub. Yeah, we put. 590 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 4: I got a smaller, cheaper artificial one a couple of 591 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 4: years ago, right after we got our cat. But within 592 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,439 Speaker 4: an hour the cat bit through the wire and the 593 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 4: whole lights were out. All the lights were out. So 594 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 4: these aldic ones, I know that won't happen because the 595 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 4: light is individual. 596 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 3: But that's a true story. We went to Low's and 597 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 3: my wife and daughter loved this tree. It was like 598 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 3: the perfect Christmas tree. And I said, but there's a 599 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 3: chunk taken out of the base of it, out of 600 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 3: the trunk. 601 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 2: And I said, that's going to affect. 602 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 3: The water, the water it absorbs, because water a tree 603 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,360 Speaker 3: drinks from the outside. You know, the inside doesn't mean anything. 604 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,719 Speaker 3: It's the outside, right below the bark. That's where all 605 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 3: the water gets absorbed in the tree. And when that 606 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 3: bark is missing, the tree is going to die. And 607 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 3: I said, this tree is going to die, because yeah, 608 00:27:58,200 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 3: we really like it. I said, yeah, but it's going 609 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 3: to die. Ye, put it on, put it on the car, 610 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 3: we'll take it home. Take it home, Put the lights on, 611 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,199 Speaker 3: put the ornaments on. Three days later, after tons of 612 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,439 Speaker 3: water and putting in the new tree and all this stuff. 613 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 3: Dead dead lights come off, bulbs come off, ornaments come off, 614 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 3: the stars come off, the flood, the icicles, everything comes off. 615 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 3: I take it back to Low's. I go, hey, this 616 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 3: thing died. And she said, well, how long if you 617 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 3: had it?

It was 621 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 3: very nice to them. 622 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 4: Well, first of all, the argument of how long ago 623 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 4: did you buy?
