Speaker 2: Why did you guys stop playing music like what? We haven't?

12
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:41,520
Speaker 2: I don't remember the last time.

13
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 3: The station was a music station, so someone wasn't listening

14
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 3: for a couple of fifty years or something.

15
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 2: So when was the last time caf I was a

16
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,760

Speaker 2: lineup well delay yeah, yeah, let's see. Earl c. Anthony

26
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 2: started the station in nineteen twenty one. Blah blah, yeah

27
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 2: our promos. Yeah, let's see World War two. We were

28
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 2: kind of a prime source for war news in the

29
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 2: Los Angeles area the nineteen twenty Yeah, in the nineteen twenties,

30
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 2: you're listening to KFI. I love our old promos. I

31
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 2: love when we crack out those old I know, that's great.

32
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 2: I didn't even need to rail your show with this.

33
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 2: See mid nineteen seventies. So we were a talk station,

34
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 2: and then we went to the mid nineteen seventies, we

35
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 2: went to top forty oh in the seventies. Wow, yeah, Hey,

36
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,679
Speaker 2: I didn't even know that Cox Broadcasting owned KFI in

37
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 2: mid seventies, and they hired John Rook is the program director.

38
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 2: John Rook. By the way, so John Rook is considered

39
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: to be the force behind the success of WLS in Chicago.

40
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 2: Wls LS. Yeah. So here's crazy. I don't even I've

41
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 2: never read this before. I've never read our I've never

42
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 2: read our Wikipedia page. Yeah, weird. So here's the crazy thing.

43
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 2: I started on Cogo in San Diego, and I was

44
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 2: kind of not a shock jock, but I was. I

45
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 2: pushed the boundaries right way more than what that station

46
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,079
Speaker 2: had ever done before. And all of a sudden, I

47
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 2: started getting these emails from this guy named John Rook,

48
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:46,959
Speaker 2: and I'm like, I have no idea who this guy is.

49
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,959
Speaker 2: And he says, I used to program WLS well growing

50
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 2: up at the Midwest. WLS is like, that's the station

51
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 2: I always used to want to work for. And he

52
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 2: really liked my stuff and he says, I think you're

53
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 2: doing great. Just keep doing what you're doing. And I

54
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 2: was like, Wow, that's that's tremendous. I didn't realize that

55
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 2: hid been the program director here in the seventies. That's crazy,

56
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 2: all right. So then when we go personality radio format,

57
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 2: no softening the playlist adult Top forty in the eighties.

58
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 2: By the mid eighties, station was more news and personality

59
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 2: driven than music intensive with a full service format. So there,

60
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 2: and then we transitioned to the mid eighties. Wow, all right,

61
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 2: good talk.

62
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 3: Hey, you know I mean, so, yeah, we all learned

63
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 3: something today.

64
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 2: This is something like when you get hired, don't you

65
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 2: think they ought to make us take this test, like

66
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 2: know your.

67
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 3: Station right, when's the last time you guys played music ABCD?

68
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess mid eighties like light rock? Okay?

69
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: Cool?

70
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 2: All right? Great? Speaking of entertainment and changing hands and

71
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 2: names and everything else. Paramount is not giving up on Warner,

72
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 2: even though Warner is telling all of their their investors like,

73
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 2: do not listen to Paramount. We want to go with

74
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 2: the Netflix deal. Ignore Paramount altogether. Just they don't have

75
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 2: the money. Don't believe the alesons. Uh, we want to

76
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 2: go with Netflix. Conglomerate parents from NBC mount.

77
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 5: Sky Dance announcing a new lawsuit today against Warner Brothers,

78
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 5: Discovery and their CEO David Zaslav, after it's offered to

79
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,359
Speaker 5: buy the company was turned down. This day round of

80
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 5: legal action in the media acquisition battle comes just a

81
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 5: after Warner Brothers board told shareholders to accept a bit

82
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 5: from Netflix instead of Paramount. Netflix's eighty three billion dollar

83
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 5: offer is for Warner Brothers Film and TV Studio as well.

84
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 5: Let's say it's HBO Max streaming platform. Clinton Maloss rnb's

85
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 5: news entertainment Corsepondent has been following this all and warned.

86
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: Us quite some time ago.

87
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 2: That it was not over until it's over.

88
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 5: And guess what, girl, it's still open.

89
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 6: Okay, really heating.

90
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 2: Up right now. And let's not forget there's always that

91
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 2: outside chance that we could have The Comcast was being

92
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 2: considered there for a while too, right, So, I mean

93
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 2: there's always an outside chance that all of a sudden,

94
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 2: Comcast goes. You know what, Let's beat both of their

95
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 2: bids and let's really throw a wrench in all of this.

96
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 2: Let's really give those investors something to think about it.

97
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 2: Let's come in at one hundred and fifteen billion dollars.

98
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 2: Paramount's offer is about one hundred and eight billion. That

99
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 2: would include the television properties Netflix wants, the film properties,

100
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 2: and the studios, and obviously the streamer Paramount. I guess

101
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 2: they want to keep everything together. Just let me get

102
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 2: Mark here, tuobe guy here, let me just get your

103
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 2: vibe on this, he and what's your vibe check? Just personally,

104
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 2: I don't care. I don't want you to think about

105
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 2: anybody else, because, let's face it, whoever this merger is with,

106
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 2: there's gonna be jobs lost. Is that fair to say?

107
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, we're stuck between one side. Netflix, which apparently

108
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 3: has absolutely no respect whatsoever from movies and the film

109
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 3: going experience. And they're they're fifth season of Strangers for

110
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 3: MA including that, and they think it's perfectly cool to

111
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,799
Speaker 3: watch Lawrence of Arabia on your phone, which is horrific.

112
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 3: But on the other side, we've got people who have

113
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 3: explicitly promised to turn everything into essentially state run media.

114
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 3: And I'm not exaggerating when I say that.

115
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, they kind of want to mirror the current administration.

116
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 2: Although this deal is going to continue well beyond this administration.

117
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 2: Will be interesting to see what they do after that.

118
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 2: Is Barry White is still going to be the head

119
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 2: of news at CBS if you've got president news. Yeah.

120
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 3: The Weiss da Kopyl experiments not going so well, but

121
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,119
Speaker 3: their backers have deep pockets, so we have no idea

122
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 3: how long that's going to last, even though they're getting

123
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 3: absolutely roasted NonStop.

124
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 2: So purely selfishly, do you have a preference on either

125
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 2: of these?

126
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,799
Speaker 3: Well, Netflix obviously, but neither one is great. And because

127
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:56,359
Speaker 3: anytime media consolidates like that, all the consumers always get screwed.

128
00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, Usually prices go up and content value slides off

129
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 2: without without exception. Yeah, And I'm just afraid that the

130
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 2: golden era of streaming is behind us because now we're

131
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 2: at the point of profit taking, and I think that's

132
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 2: why we're seeing this consolidation. It'll be really really curious

133
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 2: to see how these lawsuits play out. So Paramount of

134
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 2: course issuing because they're like Warner, you can't tell your

135
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 2: people not to vote for us or not to you know,

136
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 2: you can't do that. So I don't know why you

137
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 2: couldn't send out a message saying this is what the

138
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 2: board recommends. I don't know why that would be illegal.

139
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 2: They're not taking note for an answer. That's the issue here, right,

140
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 2: I Right. So Paramount is just like, Okay, well we're gonna,

141
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 2: We're gonna I just bog everything down in the courts.

142
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 2: And I'm guessing this is just meant to sort of

143
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 2: wear them out until they say, fine, just vote for

144
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 2: whomever you want. Yeah.

145
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 3: People have been thrown around the term lawfair because they

146
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 3: learn a new word the last couple of years.

147
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 2: Here's an example of it exactly. And I don't know

148
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 2: that this is even legitimate. But if there's an iota

149
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 2: of legitimacy to the lawsuit, can they stop the sale

150
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 2: just by basically being a poop wrench? Can they stop

151
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 2: the sale the Netflix? Right?

152
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 3: One aspect of lawfare is that you just try and

153
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 3: grind down and bankrupt and delay your opponent until they

154
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 3: throw in the towel.

155
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 2: Right, And I don't know what that looks like, but

156
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 2: he's not gonna throw in the towel. They still have

157
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 2: to have the They still have to have the shareholders

158
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 2: that would vote for paramount, and then what happens if

159
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,079
Speaker 2: they don't is paramount then sue the shareholders for not

160
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 2: voting the way that they wanted them to.

161
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a weird little Mexican standoff here because Ted

162
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 3: Sorrandos has deep pockets as well, and so he's he's

163
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 3: not going to give in that easy.

164
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. And he's the head of Netflix, by the way. Yeah,

165
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 2: they're like a like a Haitian standoff. I'm afraid not

166
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 2: it would be slower. I think. Is there a Colombian standoff?

167
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 2: Just piles of cocaine in the middle of it? Yeah,

168
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 2: you blow the powder at each other. Love that? Okay,

169
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 2: Like we learned something new today. This is all right.

170
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 2: You grew up watching the guys on the screen. Now

171
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 2: their names are scrolling past police blotterers. We got one

172
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 2: get we got to cited on a quiet Ventura County street.

173
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 2: The other just vanished and now it has reappeared. And

174
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 2: then we got news that maybe the greatest crime fighter

175
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 2: in television history gets picked up.

176
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: You're listening to KFI AM six on demand.

179
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 2: We got to celebrities behaving badly. Daniel Stern remember him.

180
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 2: He was the voice of h What was it not,

181
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 2: Boy Meets World? What was the Wonder Years? Right? And

182
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 2: of course he was the one of the robbers and

183
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 2: Home Alone. Actually, I think Daniel Stern's a heck of

184
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:54,079
Speaker 2: an act. I have to say.

185
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 3: Richie just started singing the Happy Days themes song. Not

186
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 3: Happy Days, we said Wonder Years in the Monday. Oh wait,

00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 3: that's Sepi Dad.

188
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 2: That's wrong. No, that is so wrong. I don't even

189
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 2: know the theme for the Wonder Years.

190
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 3: Oh it was Joe Joe Cocker.

191
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 2: You're right, you're right now, I do remember, yeah, yeah,

192
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 2: Oh go ahead, sorry, Oh that's right. Daniel Stern officially

Speaker 2: charged with one misdemeanor kunt of soliciting prostitution one Come on,

194
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 2: shouldn't even make news until the guy gets up to it,

195
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 2: at least a baker's dozenh for Pete's sake, he's a celebrity.

196
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 2: We're really gonna freak out over soliciting prostitutes one time.

197
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 2: Come on, he's sixty eight years old. Good for him,

198
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,359
Speaker 2: still get it up, best known for his role as

199
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 2: Marv Merchants and Home Alone, was recently issued a citation

200
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 2: allegedly soliciting a prostitute in Ventura County. All right, what

201
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 2: exactly was the address on that? Where was this? Where

202
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 2: was this hooker? Dies she rat him out? Or was

203
00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 2: this one of those undercover cop things like catch a predator? Yeah,

204
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 2: because it's sometimes you know, they'll take like a hot

205
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:05,599
Speaker 2: cop and dress her up and put her on the

206
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 2: street just to see if they can get somebody to

207
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 2: come on buy. And that's not fair. They should take

208
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 2: ugly cops, because that's somebody who really is willing to

209
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 2: pay for sex. But I mean, honestly, if a hot

210
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 2: girl is willing to do it with me, I might

211
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 2: throw her a tenor I gotta, for Pete's sake, I

212
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 2: got a call from the people who own the Home

213
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 2: Alone House, Stern said, And I'm a sculptor. They asked

214
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 2: if I would do a sculpture for the house. So

215
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 2: I'm creating a sculpture of me and the spider. He

216
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 2: added that what is this? Who's commissioned by the owners? Oh,

217
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 2: this is totally different.

218
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 3: Well, well, I was gonna say, I mean, he there's

219
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 3: a there's a famous scene with him and a spider. Yeah,

220
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 3: So I don't know if that had something to do

221
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 3: with it.

222
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 2: I guess so maybe. Oh, it's unclear whether the recent

223
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 2: legal citation might impact his commission for the Home Alone

224
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 2: House sculpture or any upcoming public appearances. All right, well,

225
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 2: I mean the question is, honestly, the question is not

226
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 2: was he soliciting to the prostitute? The question is does

227
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 2: he do this often? Right?

228
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 7: So?

229
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,680
Speaker 2: Is this did he get caught solutioning a prostitutor? He

230
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,959
Speaker 2: get caught this time soliciting a prostitute? And what happened

231
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,319
Speaker 2: to the hooker? How come hookers never get wrong?

232
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 8: Up?

233
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,439
Speaker 2: It's always about the Johns, like, Oh, we just need

234
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 2: to we don't need to attack the supply chain, we

235
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 2: just need to attack the demand. Okay, all right, break

236
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 2: up the hooker ring. Meanwhile, Keeper Sutherland one of the

237
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 2: best interviews I ever did when I was doing music radio.

238
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 2: Keeper Sutherland arrested for alleged sexual assault. No excuse me,

239
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 2: just not sexual pardon me reverse. Keeper Sutherland arrested for

240
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 2: alleged assault of a ride share driver in Hollywood. Mark

241
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 2: had this story early. Arrested early yesterday morning after an

242
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:02,120

244
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 2: assault involving rideshare driver at Sunset in Fairfax. Sutherland allegedly

Speaker 2: a fifty thousand dollars bond. Okay, no injuries requiring medical

248
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 2: treatment were reported. So you remember years ago Keiper Sutherland.

249
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 2: There was a video of him where he was in

250
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,079
Speaker 2: a hotel lobby and he had too much to drink

251
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 2: and he attacked at Christmas Tree. Yeah remember this? Yeah,

252
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 2: that was festive. I love that. What else would you do?

253
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 2: So I think it was I don't know, Like six

254
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,680
Speaker 2: months later, or something like that that he was I

255
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,559
Speaker 2: think twenty four was getting ready to launch, or maybe

256
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 2: it was the second season, whatever it was. And so

257
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 2: they were doing this press thing and they were allowing

258
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 2: for Keeper Sutherland to do these radio interviews, and I

259
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 2: was doing a morning show outside of Kansas City. We

260
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 2: had one hundred thousand watts, so we were in Kansas City,

261
00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 2: but we were not a I mean, we were a

262
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 2: Kansas City, but the station was like fifty miles away anyway.

263
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 2: So we get this interview with Keeper Sutherland and I

264
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 2: hadn't done a lot of celebrity interviews. That I'd done

265
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,559
Speaker 2: a few, but I was really excited about talking with

266
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 2: Keeper Sutherland because I thought this is an a lister,

267
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 2: you know, I got an A lister coming on my

268
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 2: dumpy little show in Lawrence, Kansas, and he was on

269
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 2: them that I used to do this bit. So I'm

270
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 2: talking to him about his show, and I'm talking to

271
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 2: him about growing up in a celebrity family, and you know,

272
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 2: there's basic boring questions. So I always just do this

273
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 2: bit at the end called friendly fire, where I would

274
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 2: just I'd say I'm going to ask you a question,

275
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 2: you give me the first answer and then I would

276
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 2: play like, you know, kind of an urgency type music

277
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 2: bed underneath it, and I would say, you know, what

278
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 2: was the first car you owned? You know, just dumb stuff.

279
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 2: And so I'm doing this friendly fire thing with him

280
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 2: and I come to the last question and he's doing

281
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 2: twenty four and I said biggest threat to America foreign

282
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 2: terrorists or Christmas Trees? And he just died laughing. And

283
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 2: I thought, I thought this is a bold question. It

284
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 2: could go either way, Like he could get mad at me.

285
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 2: I had Pauli shorre get mad at me one time.

286
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 2: I was kind of a jerk to him. I thought

287
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 2: I was being funny, but it wasn't really all that funny.

288
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 2: You don't want to get on his bad side. Yeah, right,

289
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 2: But I thought, I thought, oh man, I'm gonna ask

290
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 2: this a less celebrity about basically I'm gonna be I'm

291
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 2: gonna be kind of I'm gonna joke about this really

292
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 2: embarrassing video. And he just laughed. He was like, definitely

293
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 2: Christmas Tree's biggest threat that you can find. Definitely Christmas Tree.

294
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 2: Like he thought it was funny, like good for you.

295
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 2: Maybe he was pissed me when we were done, But

296
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 2: as we were doing the interview, it kind of felt

297
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 2: like he was like, good for you for asking the question.

298
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 3: It's good when they turn out to be good sports,

299
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 3: as opposed to say Bill Maher.

300
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 2: Yeah right, right. So anyway, I don't know, Maybe I

301
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 2: had too much to drink. I don't I can't condone

302
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 2: him attacking an uber driver. I don't like that.

303
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 3: Well, I feel like with Foush here, we can't really

304
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 3: do anything but take the side of the uber driver.

305
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 2: That's true. I'm pro fush uber driving, thank you. Yeah,

306
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 2: that's right. My question is just how did he end

307
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 2: up in an uber? Like, how do you not? Well,

308
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 2: that's that's a really good point. Don't you have a driver? Yeah? Stars,

309
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 2: they're just like are they take ubers just like the

310
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 2: rest of it.

311
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 3: I think he should be applauded for taking an Uber

312
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 3: because look at all the times we see celebrities pulled

313
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 3: over for duy and you've got to wonder they didn't

314
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 3: have a driver, they didn't have an uber Uber, he

315
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 3: couldn't call it uber. Yes, exactly, great, he was probably

316
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 3: absolutely lit and he had the intelligence to take an

317
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 3: Uber and then beat the hell out of the driver. Well, Okay,

318
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 3: you got it at a certain point. Maybe stupid tea,

319
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 3: you have it. Yeah, you have a good point on that.

320
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 3: I'm just wondering with the amount of success and money

321
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 3: he has, Like, how did he not just have a

322
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 3: driver waiting all night?

323
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 2: You know, well, it feels like a waste of money,

324
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 2: unless unless you know you're going to be a jerk

325
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 2: to an uber driver. I think he already had like

326
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 2: DUIs before.

327
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 9: Maybe I think you're right, why, maybe that's why he chose, Hey,

328
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 9: I'm gonna take an uber.

329
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 2: I think you might be right. You want to bring

330
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 2: that during the break, We'll just make sure that we're

331
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 2: not passing along better.

332
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 4: No.

333
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 9: According to this article of Times, it says that bout

334
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 9: in twenty twenty he did an illegal U turn in Hollywood.

335
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:04,400
Speaker 9: I guess that's and that led to a DUI charge.

336
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 9: And then there was others in four to seven.

337
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:11,120
Speaker 2: Well, if you're drunk, if you're drunk, user blinker, don't

338
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 2: do U turns. Well, I mean, don't drive, obviously, don't

339
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 2: do that.

340
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 3: But it's crazy too, how like half the time, because

341
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 3: I've seen a lot of those body cam videos. It's

342
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 3: all because he just made like a dumb like what

343
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 3: Richie just said, like an illegal turn, and then they'll

344
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 3: just pull him over for that they're driving normally and

345
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 3: then oh yeah, and you're.

346
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 2: Drunk, so yeah, and you know the cops are looking

347
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 2: for that that late at night, the cops are looking

348
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 2: for a reason to pull you over.

349
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,200
Speaker 3: And if you do something obvious and they're like, gotcha,

350
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,639
Speaker 3: and then they just smell the liquor coming out here.

351
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, there is a celebrity who went missing, and I

352
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 2: was kind of freaking out about this because I thought, Oh,

353
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 2: I don't like a celebrity who's wanted by the police

354
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 2: and goes missing. And there's an update on that story too.

355
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 2: You're gonna find out what is going on with that

356
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 2: super celeb that is next.

357
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 1: You're listening to KFI AM on demand.

358
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 2: We're just talking about some celebrities behaving badly. Daniel Stern

359
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 2: picked up for allegedly soliciting a prostitute, a misdemeanor charge.

360
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 2: Some of you hit us up on the talk back

361
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 2: on the Eyeheart Radio app and I appreciate you doing that.

362
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 2: One guy's not happy with me.

363
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 7: Hey man. Not only can crushing on the hookers, Oh yeah,

364
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 7: people that want to have sex too.

365
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 2: I mean do they know? I mean, if you have

366
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 2: to pay them, how much do they really want it? Hey,

367
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 2: come on, now, hooker's got to eat.

368
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,159
Speaker 7: Not your fault for being a male and wanted to

369
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 7: call up a chick and meet up and have a

370
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 7: nice time.

371
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,680
Speaker 2: And pay her to go home. Yeah, I get that,

372
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 2: you're right, But if we're gonna try to look, if

373
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 2: we're gonna try to stop prostitution, I think you've got

374
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 2: to stop prostitutes. Otherwise, all you're doing is you're just

375
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 2: hurting their their their customer base. If you're just gonna

376
00:18:53,720 --> 00:19:00,360
Speaker 2: arrest Daniel Stern for soliciting a prostitute, you gotta Yeah,

377
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 2: lets you have to address the prostitute for you know,

378
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 2: being a prostitute. Hey, guy, talk to me about I've

379
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,880
Speaker 2: never I've never been never been to a hooker. Sure

380
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 2: you haven't. I haven't because first of all, I'm wildly insecure, right,

381
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 2: I have very limited sexual experience. I don't I don't

382
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 2: have a large cadre of partners. I'm not very It's

383
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 2: not what I thought you were gonna say. I'm not

384
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 2: very attractive, and so basically, if I found a woman

385
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 2: to sleep with me, I was like, will you marry me?

386
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:29,879
Speaker 2: And a few said no, and then I found somebody

387
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 2: that was like fine, and you work the law of averages.

388
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 2: So I the last thing I want to do is

389
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 2: be like a notch in somebody's bedpostter where they're like,

390
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 2: where I'm completely forgettable, and honestly, you're paying a hooker

391
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 2: to forget you, right. So I'm not crazy about that

392
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 2: because I would be way too self conscious. The other

393
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 2: is I would be really nervous about, oh my gosh,

394
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 2: I'm breaking the law. What if this is a cop

395
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 2: that I'm soliciting and I'm gonna go to jail and

396
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 2: I'm gonna end up in the in the news. I mean, look,

397
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 2: Daniel Stern is wildly embarrassed today. His name is all

398
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 2: over the news, his face, his mug shot is being

399
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,919
Speaker 2: splattered everywhere because he got picked up for alictening hooker.

400
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,239
Speaker 3: Right, and you know what, I bet it gets him

401
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:12,400
Speaker 3: some bookings where as.

402
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 2: He'll he'll get a couple of.

403
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 3: Guest shots on on some network shows just based on

404
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 3: this because he's front and center now for a couple

405
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 3: of days.

406
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe a new sequel called Home Not So Alone.

407
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:30,440
Speaker 3: Keep trying, Okay, Uh, uh.

408
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 2: No, but I got I got nothing else.

409
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 3: It'll work, work on something, work off of city slickers.

410
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 3: I don't want to feed your lines, but I think

411
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 3: that'll be more fruitful, fruitful.

412
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 2: For city slicking hookers cities. There's there's a porn in

413
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:47,680
Speaker 2: there somewhere.

414
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 3: I think, just just city slickers. You really don't need

415
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 3: to change it. No, you're right that one. I'm with you, Okay.

416
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,439
Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you writing credit on that. God, I

00:20:58,480 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 3: love working with you. Such a good team.

Speaker 2: who played Laura Ingles Wilder. Uh and and she was

00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:48,600

Speaker 2: she for a while.

433
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,080

Speaker 2: the guy's name that played the father Little Joe exactly.

439
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 2: Nailed it. God, we are really good at this. We

440
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 2: should do trivia and deep dives here anyway. Uh. So

441
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 2: he's been accused of child sex abuse of two boys

442
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,239
Speaker 2: on the set of one of his shows, and they

443
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,640
Speaker 2: called the US Marshals to go look for him because

444
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 2: he disappeared for three days. And I thought, oh my gosh,

445
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 2: he disappeared for three days after they want him for

446
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,679
Speaker 2: child sexual abuse. If he's missing, I thought, this is

447
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,120
Speaker 2: not gonna end. Well, this is gonna end with somebody

448
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 2: discovering a body. And then I see another headline and

449
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 2: I thought, oh god, this gets worse. I mean, my

450
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 2: mind goes to a dark place as Timothy Busfield's child

451
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 2: sex abuse allegations come to light. Wife Melissa Gilbert goes

452
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 2: dark on Instagram. That's from the La Times, So that

453
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 2: was yesterday they published that. Thought, Oh god, this is

454
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 2: going to be really horrible. I hope this isn't going

455
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 2: to turn into like a murder suicide situation. Again, my

456
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 2: mind goes really dark and it sounds like it does

457
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,399
Speaker 2: not end that way. ABC had the update tonight, Timothy.

00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 6: a criminal complaint alleging he's sexually assaulted the boy twice

464
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 6: on the set of the TV show The Cleaning Lady

465
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,679
Speaker 6: when the boy was seven and eight years old. The

466
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,719
Speaker 6: family claims that occurred in a bedroom set on the show,

467
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 6: and tonight Busfield is claiming his innocence, saying this in

468
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 6: a video moments before turning him.

469
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 2: Hey, they say he was working on The Cleaning Lady.

470
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 2: That's like, that's a network show. That's pretty legit. Go ahead.

471
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 8: I'm going to confront these lies. They're horrible, they're all

472
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 8: and I did not do anything to those little boys,

473
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,199
Speaker 8: and I'm.

474
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna fight it.

475
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 8: I'm gonna fight it with a great team, and I'm

476
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,479
Speaker 8: gonna be exonerated. I know I am, because this is

477
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 8: all so wrong.

478
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 2: Yeah it is. Why'd you go missing for three days?

479
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:22,679
Speaker 2: You know? Okay? If I'm him, this is what I

480
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 2: say to explain why he went missing for three days

481
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 2: after the child sex abuse charges came to light, I say,

482
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 2: I heard about these awful accusations. I was mortified by

483
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 2: the accusations, and I immediately began seeking legal counsel. But

484
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,119
Speaker 2: it's Albuquerque, and the only attorney I could find was

485
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 2: better Call Saul, and that wasn't gonna cut it. So

486
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 2: I had to wait three days until I could get

487
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,919
Speaker 2: an appointment with a decent attorney. See only, I mean,

488
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,719
Speaker 2: how else do you explain three days of time going missing?

489
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 2: You're gonna have to say I was seeking legal counsel

490
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 2: during that time, and that at no point was I

491
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:06,679
Speaker 2: trying to abscond from the authorities. You got to use

492
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 2: a big word, that's the only otherwise, what do you say? Well,

493
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 2: I had to think about whether or not I was

494
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 2: gonna off myself. He did turn himself in, didn't he

495
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 2: He did? Yeah, I think that goes some distance to

496
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 2: establishing a little bit of credibility. I agree with you.

497
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,400
Speaker 2: I agree, And you say I was taking three days.

498
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,919
Speaker 2: It took me three days to find an attorney and

499
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 2: to get my affairs in order so that I could, uh,

500
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 2: you know, do the right thing and stand up and

501
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,639
Speaker 2: fight these charges. Yeah. If he'd gotten caught on the lamb,

502
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 2: that would be a whole different right right across the border,

503
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 2: we got an issue right probably in a covered wagon

504
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 2: with his wife. And I mean not to like, I mean,

505
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 2: because this is all alleged apparently, right, Yeah, I mean

506
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 2: he's just been charged. So yeah, he's been alleged, to say,

507
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 2: allegedly in front of everything posh, okay, well.

508
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 3: Allegends it's allegedly happened. But to have my fellow millennials

509
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 3: that happened to be listening, it's ironic because he played

510
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 3: aid the what is it called, go on secret service

511
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 3: for the President's son, and then he gets fired because

512
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 3: in the movie he was like basically abusing him. So

513
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 3: I just think it's kind of ironic that because when

514
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 3: I realized, I don't know who you're.

515
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 2: Saying that life imitates art.

516
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 3: Maybe because when I heard his name, I didn't know

517
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 3: his name, but when I saw his face, I'm like, wait,

518
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 3: I know that guy, and what movie are you talking about?

519
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 2: First kid was Sindbad. I had no idea either.

520
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:38,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I but because that exceeds anything I've ever said. No,

521
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 3: it's only I mean, some people will get it, but

522
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 3: it's just like, it's just ironic that I was just

523
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 3: like the name.

524
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 2: Of the director's nephew and you're at Ronner level. Yeah, true,

525
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:48,639
Speaker 2: I love that.

526
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 3: No, No, I yield. Woosh, you're the king. You win,

527
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 3: you win on that one. Yeah.

528
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,440
Speaker 2: Anyway, I'd like to think that there was not sex

529
00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 2: abuse going on. That's what I would like to think,

530
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 2: with to think allegedly and in just until proven guilty

531
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 2: and all those other things. But I just hate when

532
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 2: those stories come up.

533
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,960
Speaker 3: And well, if I'm correct, it's been a couple days

534
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 3: since I've read this, and I don't have the information

535
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 3: Sinbad movie, My god, No, no, no, no, no, we're gonna

536
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 3: go down that route.

537
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:14,240
Speaker 8: Now.

538
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 3: Busfield had had some other incident where he had faced

539
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,399
Speaker 3: allegations and that was dropped in the past, So I

540
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:24,439
Speaker 3: think there may be some nuance in that. Well, I

541
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 3: mean if it was dropped or I can't remember if

542
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 3: it was settled, but it didn't wind up going to court,

543
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 3: and he certainly wasn't convicted of anything. So I think

544
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,399
Speaker 3: we're gonna find out more and it may not be

545
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 3: as simple as it sounds.

546
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Well, I mean I loved him with

547
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:40,439
Speaker 2: Sindbad and Cherokee Kid.

548
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 3: Now you're looking at IMDb. Yeah, my god, here not being.

549
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 2: Loved loved Sindbad and uh and uh, I can't even

550
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 2: do it anymore. Sinbad the Sailor, My god, what a

551
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 2: great classic. This is a cinematic masterpiece.

552
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I yam what I am? Hey, you get you

00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,360
Speaker 2: for the longest time we said it felt old. Now

560
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 2: there's a return to it. What are they ditching in

561
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 2: the modern cars to go back to the classics?

562
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 1: That is next you're listening to KFI AM six forty

Speaker 2: right up at ten o'clock, A little bit of witchcraft,

574
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 2: A little bit of witchcraft. Does it sound like an

575
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 2: Oldman Brothers kind of thing? It sounds like, yeah, it

576
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 2: could be like an Eagles song. Oh yeah, okay, you know,

577
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 2: well we had we had like witchy woman, right, Oh yeah,

578
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 2: that's probably why it could be all right, very good.

579
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:26,239
Speaker 2: So I bought a car a couple of years back.

580
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 2: I think I mentioned this earlier in My Car is.

581
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 2: It's a twenty twenty three model. I bought it January second,

582
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, because I was looking for the zero

583
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 2: percent plus the discounts and I got them, and one

584
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 2: of the things that I found I'm I'm kind of

585
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 2: a closet car geek. I haven't been completely paying attention

586
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 2: to vehicles as much as I had in a year's past,

587
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 2: but I do like cars, and as much as I

588
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 2: love the classic cars, I also love how much technology

589
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 2: is advancing in these vehicles, and so when I buy

590
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 2: a car, I find it really tempting to rather than

591
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 2: doing the fiscally smart thing and buying a car just

592
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 2: a few years old has got a lot of the

593
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 2: depreciation out of the way, but still has a lot

594
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 2: of life to the vehicle, which is what I should

595
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 2: be doing. I find myself wanting the newest, the latest,

596
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 2: the greatest of the tech, right That's what I love.

597
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 2: So last car I bought I did. I got it

598
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 2: at zero percent interest, but it was a brand new

599
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 2: car and I had a lot of tech. But also,

600
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 2: unlike my last vehicle, which had a lot of tech,

601
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 2: the car I have right now has a lot of buttons.

602
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,719
Speaker 2: My last car had a touchscreen and very few buttons,

603
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 2: so all of the climate was controlled on the touch screen.

604
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 2: All of the vehicle diagnostic stuff was all on the

605
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 2: touch screen. The new car, it's got a touch screen,

606
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 2: got a lot of that stuff. But it still has

607
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 2: like the climate controls all on the buttons, and I

608
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 2: can change like I don't have to push a I

609
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:48,920
Speaker 2: don't have to push a touch screen to turn the

610
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:50,840
Speaker 2: I have heated seats. I know, I'm gonna sound really

611
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 2: fancy here all of a sudden. Don't get too excited.

612
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 2: It's not like it's Alexis now.

613
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 3: Those heated seats are creepy, what because they make you

614
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 3: feel like you got a load in your pants. I

615
00:30:58,600 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 3: hate those things.

616
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 2: I mean you don't. Don't just crap.

617
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 8: That.

618
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 2: They're awful. It's leather seats. It just feels gross. The

619
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 2: trouble is, you also have it's got vented seats, so

620
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 2: you don't want that stuff getting into into little perforations either.

621
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 2: So yeah, put you're you're gonna want to put a

622
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 2: sheet down. So anyway, appreciate you. Mark, that's fantastic. I

623
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 2: try to contribute. Yeah, that is excellent. That's really good. So, uh.

624
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 2: One of the things that car manufacturers are being asked

625
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 2: to do right now is bring back more buttons, more

626
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 2: old fashion controls. It was reading a science alert dot com.

627
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 3: Uh.

628
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 2: Car manufacturers asked to bring back old fashion controls. In

629
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 2: recent years, the way drivers interact with cars is fundamentally changed.

630
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,959
Speaker 2: Totally agree. Physical buttons have gradually disappeared from dashboards as

631
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 2: more functions have been transferred to touchscreens. I didn't realize this.

632
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 2: The first touch screen showed up in the eighties. God,

633
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:57,479
Speaker 2: those must have just been absolute trash. What was a

634
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 2: touchscreen doing in a car in the eighties, Well, it

635
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 2: was on kit even kid had Bidon's Kid just talk

636
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 2: to you. There was no screen. I mean I guess

637
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 2: there was a screen, wasn't there. It would show like

638
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 2: radar signaling or something, wasn't it. Yeah. It was like

639
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 2: those old handheld video games with the dots. Oh yeah, yeah.

640
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 2: It felt like you were playing war games. Right, yeah,

641
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 2: very good. Yeah, I'm trying to think I used to

642
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 2: have Why I thought I was Oh, I am I

643
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 2: got I'm just not fast enough. It's late at night.

644
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 2: I've already got my camera, meal and Bailey's in hands.

645
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 2: So there you go. I did happen, just wasn't readily available.

646
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 2: I should have thought about that ahead of time anyway.

647
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 2: So now what they're saying is the impression of the

648
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 2: modern technology and technologically advanced vehicles with the touch screens

649
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 2: were kind of an allure to people like me. Scientific evidence, though,

650
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 2: is increasingly pointing to touch screens is compromising oursels. Okay,

651
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 2: that's enough, compromising our safety. We're being distracted by the

652
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 2: touch screens. And so what's happening is there are a

653
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 2: number of places, specifically Australia and New Zealand are leading

654
00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 2: this and they're announcing that from twenty twenty six they

655
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 2: are going to start asking car manufacturers to bring back

656
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 2: buttons for important driver controls, including headlights and windscreen wipers.

657
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 2: I gotta be stray with you. I've never seen a

658
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 2: car that has had a touch screen for the headlights

659
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 2: and windscreen wipers. Now, one of the guys I work

660
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 2: with has just bought a Tesla here recently because he's

661
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 2: a Nazi, and when he did sell nice. When he

662
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,360
Speaker 2: did so, though, I asked him, I said, because he

663
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 2: gave me a ride in it one time, and I

664
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 2: was like, this is really nice, you know, it's and

665
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 2: it's super high tech. It's got that massive, huge screen yeah,

666
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 2: huge screen right in the middle. And so I said,

667
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 2: I go, hey, when you turn your headlights on or

668
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 2: your windshield wipers, is that on the Is that on

669
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 2: the touch screen? He goes, I don't know. I might

670
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 2: be able to do it on the touch screen. But

671
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 2: my steering wheel has a button to turn the windshield

672
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 2: wipers on it, and his his steering wheels very spartan.

673
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 2: I mean, the buttons are almost hidden. They're very they're

674
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 2: quite masked. It's the design and that is really sleek.

675
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 2: It's very unique, very discreet. Yeah, but it's still there.

676
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 2: So this idea that they're talking about in these different

677
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,440
Speaker 2: countries where they go you have to put the windshield

678
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 2: wipers in the headlights, you know, and the old school buttons.

679
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,799
Speaker 2: I haven't seen touchscreens that control those things yet. Now

680
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 2: maybe some of you have a car that does that.

681
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 2: I have no idea. Feel free to hit us up

682
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:21,240
Speaker 2: on the talk back and let me know what vehicle

683
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 2: has only touchscreen access to windshield wipers and headlights. But

684
00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 2: I feel like that is a major safety concern because

685
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 2: if you have an electrical issue and the vehicle needs

686
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 2: to be restarted or reset, you know, then all of

687
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 2: a sudden. You can't do those basic functions, and you

688
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 2: kind of need the headlights on. Otherwise you're in stealth mode,

689
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 2: which is found upon by the police. They'll pull you

690
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 2: over and give you a DUI test. So I will

691
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:49,920
Speaker 2: say this, for driver convenience, I'm all about bringing many

692
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 2: of those buttons back. I do like that My car has,

693
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 2: for instance, vehicle diagnostics. I can go in and I

694
00:34:56,560 --> 00:35:00,160
Speaker 2: can tweak certain things. You know, the illumination color. It's

695
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 2: got led lights and change the color of the lights.

696
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 2: That's cool. Keep that on the toch screen, that's fine.

697
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 2: I'm done with that. That's awesome. But as far as

698
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,800
Speaker 2: those basics, I think you got to have the heated

699
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 2: seats that Mark will never have. Those need to be

700
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 2: on a button. The cool seats, those need to be

701
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:21,359
Speaker 2: on a tackle button. The shifter, I've got what they

702
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 2: call shift by wire. Do you know what this is?

703
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 2: Are you familiar with this?

704
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 7: No?

705
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:27,920
Speaker 2: It sounds fun though. Okay, So you've got like a

706
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 2: mechanical shifter which has got it's got the shifter in

707
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 2: the middle. Okay, park reverse neutral drive, and you push

708
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,280
Speaker 2: the button in and you move the shifter around. Mine's

709
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 2: got a little wheel on it. And all that wheel

710
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 2: does is it just it tells the computer change gears.

711
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,879
Speaker 2: So that's called shift by wire maybe, oh, electronically.

712
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I've seen those on Like I'm not, I

713
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:49,799
Speaker 3: don't know what I forgot what you have, but I've

714
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 3: seen I've just got to.

715
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:53,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, Mercedes has them. In fact, I think the first

716
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,000
Speaker 2: one at my my wife's Mercedes that she had it

717
00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 2: was a twenty fifteen model. I think that had it.

718
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:00,360
Speaker 2: That's the one that they sold because we went broke.

719
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think them in Jaguar that that's

720
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:05,359
Speaker 3: when it started to take off.

721
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 2: Yes, I think you're right. The luxury models of course,

722
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,560
Speaker 2: pioneer a lot of the technology. And then actually my

723
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 2: wife drives the Maverick now and it's got it. And then,

724
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 2: like I said, my Hyundai has it as well. But

725
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 2: my son's Ford Fusion, which was mine, i sold it

726
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 2: to him, it's got the original you know, the shifter

727
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,719
Speaker 2: in the middle. But anyway, I'm a big fan of

728
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 2: bringing back in number those buttons. Plus I just like

729
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:27,760
Speaker 2: having a cockpit feel stop it, Mark.

730
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:29,919
Speaker 3: No, No, I'm looking at the shift by wire now

731
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 3: and it just is there anything that could make driving

732
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:36,120
Speaker 3: more joyless, Like, would Steve McQueen want that shift by wire?

733
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:40,839
Speaker 2: Come on, well, he never would have driven a been

734
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 2: automatic in the first place. That wouldn't have happened, right,

735
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 2: It would have been a stick shift. Which did you

736
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 2: know that with a stick shift? If you're in the movies,

737
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,279
Speaker 2: you can shift, You can pull the stick toward you

738
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 2: and that makes you go faster. But then if you

739
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,439
Speaker 2: push the stick forward, that makes you go faster. I say,

740
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:58,400
Speaker 2: that's how it works in the movies. Every time you shift,

741
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,320
Speaker 2: you go faster. It doesn't matter which direction. Fast and

742
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 2: the furio. I'll watch bullet differently, faster, faster, faster. I

743
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 2: love when they go from one scene where they're revving

744
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 2: up the engine and they show the shifter drop down

745
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:09,439
Speaker 2: and they and they drop it into the next gear,

746
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:11,799
Speaker 2: and then the the it revs up, and then they

747
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 2: go to the scene and then they're dropping it into

748
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 2: the next gear, and I go, how many? How many

749
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:16,160
Speaker 2: times can you drop that? And the money gears? Do

750
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 2: you have? What happened to the old h pattern? Don't

751
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:20,400
Speaker 2: you have to go down up, down, up? Nope, not

752
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:22,879
Speaker 2: in the movies. I love that stuff. I'm out of time.

753
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 1: I gotta shut up kf I AM six forty on

754
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:26,800
Speaker 1: demand
