1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.

2
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:10,040
Speaker 2: KFIAM six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app bym

3
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 2: Andy Reesmeyer. Being with you here for the next fifty

4
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 2: five minutes or so. Appreciate you joining us here. On

5
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 2: the Monday before the storm, heard a little bit from

6
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 2: Karen Bass and what I mean a little bit like

7
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 2: probably four sentences from Mayor Karen Bass press conference earlier

8
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,599
Speaker 2: that many in the media did not know about. I

9
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,159
Speaker 2: was looking at KTLA's teams. I didn't see anything. We

10
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 2: didn't see anything here. So I do have some information

11
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,160
Speaker 2: from at least to her press release. Thirteen thousand feet

12
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 2: of k rail are in place in the Pacific Palisades.

13
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 2: That's what they put up along the burnscar border over

14
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 2: there on PCH. All of this because of the National

15
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 2: Weather Service issue to floodwatch, which will impact burnscar areas,

16
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 2: including the Pacific Palisades, the Hurst, the Sunset burn scars.

17
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 2: That's just for Los Angeles. The city La County also

18
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 2: issuing an evacuation warning saying get ready to go if

19
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 2: you need to for areas of the Eton Fire burn scar.

20
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 2: That would be Alta Dina. There's also some concerns rather

21
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 2: in San Bernino County as well. The evacuation warning will

22
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 2: go into effect ten o'clock tonight. It's about fifty five minutes.

23
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 2: That'll be all the way with us till six o'clock

24
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 2: in the morning October fifteenth, that's Wednesday. That's within the

25
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 2: Pacific Palisades, the Sunset and the Hurst Burn scar areas.

26
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 2: People in the area might receive a knock on the

27
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,480
Speaker 2: door from the Los Angeles Police Department sixty properties that

28
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 2: are especially vulnerable to any debris flow in that area.

29
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 2: So we will be watching that. Expect for the rain

30
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 2: to start falling in Ventor County overnight into the early

31
00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 2: morning hours. Los Angeles probably start to see some of

32
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 2: the precipitation in the early morning hours rained throughout the

33
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 2: day twelve hour window there, as Kati alas Vera Jimenez said,

34
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 2: probably going to be a pretty miserable morning on the roadway.

35
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 2: An investigation continues into Saturday's helicopter crash that injured five

36
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:21,119
Speaker 2: people in Huntington Beach. Of course you saw it. It's

37
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 2: been on social media everywhere. Out of control video, the

38
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 2: video almost as heart stopping as the audio. The big

39
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,399
Speaker 2: sound of those the sound of those big, big rotors

40
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 2: whipping through the air, before, of course, the helicopter ends

41
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 2: up in a bunch of trees there next to PCH

42
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 2: Two people who aboard the helicopter, three on the ground

43
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 2: were injured. The helicopter is still there as of today.

44
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 2: The cops and cars and copters rather event still went

45
00:02:55,360 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: on on Sunday. Joining us now was former KTLA five

46
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 2: News helicopter pilot Tim Lynn, who spoke to us yesterday

47
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 2: on the Andy Reesmeier Show. Thanks for joining us on

48
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 2: this Monday night, you know, Tim, since we talked yesterday,

49
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 2: I hope you had a good time at be Most Stadium,

50
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 2: but you've been everywhere. You were on Conway earlier. I

51
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 2: saw you on KTLA. You were talking about what you

52
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: think might have happened after reviewing some of the footage,

53
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 2: of which we have a ton of really close up footage.

54
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 3: Well that's one thing about this crash.

55
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 4: It probably has more footage than must crashes because of

56
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 4: all the people. They're at cars and copters waiting for

57
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 4: the helicopters to come in. Now, three other helicopters had

58
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 4: already landed, so there was quite a crowd watching them

59
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 4: come in and watch and looking at some of the

60
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 4: video posted on social media, I finally saw one where

61
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 4: I could see on the tail roader that a part

62
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 4: of the tail rotor had failed and it's called a

63
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 4: pitch link and it was hanging straight down, which is

64
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 4: in the centrifugal force was keeping it out of sticking

65
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 4: straight down, and that is what controls the pitch air

66
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 4: control of that tail rotor blade. And so with that

67
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 4: you lose a functionality of the tail rotor. You also

68
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 4: put a very heavy imbalance on that system. Now I

69
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 4: realize that system is spending, you know, seven to eight

70
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,359
Speaker 4: hundred RPMs, and any little bit of weight out of

71
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 4: balance will start a environment shape. And then that violence

72
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 4: shape continues on getting worse, and the blades start flapping

73
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 4: and you might have contact with the tail boom with

74
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 4: one of those blades. And then eventually in the video

75
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 4: you can see the whole transmission, the tail rotor transmission,

76
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 4: break off of the tail with the tail rotors and

77
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 4: fly off into the parking lot.

78
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 3: That's what you were saying, catastrophic failure.

79
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what you can see fly off the back

80
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 2: of the helicopter there. And is it is it that

81
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 2: were they lucky that this failure occurred so close to

82
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 2: the ground, Like if this had happened five thousand feet

83
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 2: or even ten thousand feet like this would have been

84
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 2: a lot harder to get it to the ground safely.

85
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 4: Right, Actually, just the opposite, really, you would have been

86
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 4: at five thousand fs. Because the procedure for loss of

87
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 4: tail rotor control, which we do practice, I practice it

88
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 4: every six months, to where you lose control of the

89
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 4: tail roader. There's a way to fly the helicopter in

90
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 4: such a way that the vertical stabilizer on the back

91
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 4: actually works as a wind mane and keeps the tail

92
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 4: behind you, and you can control the helicopter. And each

93
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 4: helicopter is a little bit different on coming in and

94
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:38,359
Speaker 4: you basically come in to a suitable area to land,

95
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 4: and you shut off the engine and do what's called

96
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 4: it hotter rotation. Now, what causes the helicopter to spin

97
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 4: is there's an opposite equal reaction to those main rotor

98
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:52,039
Speaker 4: blades that are overhead. Now they turn to the left. Well,

99
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 4: when they turn to the left, by the torque of

100
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 4: the engine, that puts torque onto the body of the aircraft.

101
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 4: And without that tail rotor there's nothing to stop the

102
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 4: cabin from spinning to the right. And that's what you

103
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 4: saw here. So soon as that tail roader departed, he

104
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 4: had absolutely no control of the tail. He was in

105
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 4: the worst possible position if you could be wow, he

106
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:15,359
Speaker 4: was low.

107
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 3: He was low.

108
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 4: He was very slow air speed in a very high

109
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 4: power setting.

110
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 3: Because he was.

111
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 4: Coming into land, you're in that vulnerable stage where you're

112
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 4: just about ready to get to the ground and stop

113
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 4: and put it on the ground nice and nice and smooth.

114
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 4: And at that point he was like out of ill

115
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 4: as we say, out of airspeed, altitude and ideas, because.

116
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 3: There's really nothing he could do, I mean.

117
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 2: At this point, and he did go ahead, I'm sorry.

118
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 4: And what he did do is applied a little bit

119
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 4: of power which caused it to go up a little bit,

120
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 4: and then held that helicopter in a flat attitude, which

121
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 4: is extremely difficult as it spins. Now you got to

122
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 4: realize that's to be like sitting in your care and

123
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 4: you're caught in a tornado getting spun. Everything outside gets

124
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 4: real blurry.

125
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 3: Oh yeah.

126
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 4: And so he's doing his best to keep that level

127
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 4: and then bring it and slet off power and then

128
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 4: start bringing it down to the ground, and luckily he

129
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 4: hit the stairs and the trees which kind of slowed

130
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 4: him down and held him up off the ground, so

131
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 4: kind of slowed that descent. He wasn't very high, so

132
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 4: he hadn't picked up a lot of raiate of descent,

133
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 4: and very well could have it had landed in the

134
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 4: parking lot. Would have been a very hard impact, but

135
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 4: nothing that was going to be devastating.

136
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 2: So as was the way to help, right And as

137
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 2: we know now, Eric Nixon is the name of the pilot.

138
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 2: He was a self styled aviation enthusiast. According to the

139
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 2: Orange County Register, he is in the hospital with some

140
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 2: broken ribs, crushed vertebrae, and several bruises. The serious injuries, however,

141
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 2: compared to most aircraft crashes, I imagine that you know,

142
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 2: he did remarkably well. Some of people have said that

143
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 2: he's he's famous for his daring maneuvers. Do you think,

144
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 2: as a professional pilot that means anything at all?

145
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 3: It depends on what you're doing.

146
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 4: And Eric does a lot of the Baja racing coverage

147
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 4: where he supports the teams that race in the deserts

148
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 4: and those guys fly pretty low pretty fast along with

149
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 4: the vehicles on the ground. They're doing one of two things.

150
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 4: They're transporting medical personnel in case something happens is right

151
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 4: there on the spot, they have to catch up with it,

152
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 4: stay with their.

153
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 3: Vehicle on the ground.

154
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 4: They're also looking ahead for vehicles who have crashed, because

155
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 4: when you come over a hill you don't know what's there.

156
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 4: They get that driver heads up on what's ahead. They

157
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 4: also look for obstacles and let's say holes or something

158
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 4: that wasn't there before that could cause their part to crash.

159
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 4: So this is a normal operating thing down in Baja,

160
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 4: especially where they do chase and they follow the aircraft

161
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 4: or follow the racers along. Also, at that same time,

162
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 4: you could be hired to do video, and the video

163
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,719
Speaker 4: you want to get down load to where you get

164
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 4: the right angle. Coming out of news, you know they

165
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 4: want the money shot and you get down low, fly sideways,

166
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 4: you do things.

167
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 3: You hold a however, let a car come right at

168
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 3: you and let it go underneath you.

169
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,439
Speaker 4: I mean there's a few times that I've flown a

170
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 4: movie ship that's gotten very close to the object that

171
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 4: I'm filming, because that's respect what they were want.

172
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 2: So then I mean, as far as you can tell,

173
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 2: it sounds like it was a mechanical issue, sort of

174
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,199
Speaker 2: an active god thing. It had nothing to do with

175
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 2: him being a sport pilot or anything like that.

176
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 4: No, his social media post and his influencer profile has

177
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,680
Speaker 4: nothing to do with what happened here. This was a

178
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 4: catastrophic failure of a piece of mechanical equipment on the

179
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 4: helicopter that happened at the worst possible time.

180
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,199
Speaker 3: And you know, just.

181
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 4: Luck in the hand of God got people from dying,

182
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 4: because that could have been something else. At one point

183
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 4: I'd be yesterday, is that that helicopter was hanging on

184
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,040
Speaker 4: its side against those palm trees, against the steps, the

185
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 4: engines were still running and gas or jet fuel was

186
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,959
Speaker 4: pouring out onto the ground. Now, had that aircraft hit

187
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 4: the ground and that jet fuel came out, you could

188
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 4: have had postcrash fire and Eric wouldn't be with us

189
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 4: here today.

190
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 3: Oh my god. You know.

191
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 4: On another side, note that he had to use the

192
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 4: farting part to come out and instruct them on how

193
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 4: to shoot water into the intake of the engine to

194
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 4: shut the engines down because they could not get back

195
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 4: in to turn off the engine. So a lot of

196
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 4: things could have gone real sideways on this last question.

197
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 2: For you here before before we get out of here,

198
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,319
Speaker 2: and I so appreciate you spending so much time with us.

199
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 2: Does this make yours a little bit apprehensive about flying

200
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 2: helicopter or do you just say that's just how it goes.

201
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 4: Look, Andy, I found a parking spot at five point

202
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 4: thirty in the afternoon on our Friday in Hollywood, So

203
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 4: if that didn't stop.

204
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 3: Me for flying, that's true.

205
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, referring to the time when the engine gave out

206
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 2: somewhere above Hollywood and you and yeah and your photog

207
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 2: were able to well, you set it down in the

208
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 2: middle of a park Nott in Hollywood. Amazing stuff. Auto rotated.

209
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 2: That was I guess that same situation where you lost

210
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 2: had to auto rotate the aircraft down to the ground.

211
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, a little different. I still had a power to

212
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 3: the to the rotors, but I was I had to

213
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 3: get to the ground pretty quickly. Man. There was a

214
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 3: lot of smoke coming out of it.

215
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 2: Crazy stuff, but.

216
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 4: It's just doll You have to jump back in and

217
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 4: I'm sure if Eric wasn't as injured as he is,

218
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,599
Speaker 4: he'd be back buying one of his other four helicopters

219
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 4: that he owns.

220
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 2: Jeez Louise. All right, well, mister tim Lin, thank you

221
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 2: so much for talking to us. As always former Katla

222
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 2: helicopter pilot who still up there flying around, and we

223
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 2: really appreciate you. Don't be a stranger to the show.

224
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 2: We'll talk to you real soon.

225
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:42,839
Speaker 3: Call me any time.

226
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 2: It's I AM six forty. We're live everywhere on the

227
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 2: iHeart radio app caf I AM six forty live everywhere

228
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 2: on the iHeartRadio app. As we've been telling you head

229
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 2: of the storm, here we are about forty minutes away

230
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 2: from an evacuation warning going into effect all the way

231
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 2: till Wednesday morning. This is from the City of Los

232
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 2: Angeles for areas within the Pacific Palisades, the Sunset and

233
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 2: Hurst Burnscar. Basically to prepare in case it is necessary

234
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 2: to issue an evacuation order. This is not the same.

235
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 2: A warning is not the same as they order. That's

236
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 2: very important. They just say they want you to be

237
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,680
Speaker 2: ready to go in case. The County's also done a

238
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 2: similar issued a similar warning for areas around Altadena and

239
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 2: the Eton Fire Burnscar. The mayor bass recently tweeting a

240
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 2: twenty two members strike team with dozers. Those are bulldozers.

241
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 2: Twenty seven member hand crew, six member Urban Search and

242
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 2: Rescue team, plus swift water rescue teams and helicopters will

243
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:49,959
Speaker 2: be available to respond to potential debris flows and swift

244
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 2: water conditions. LADWP rather will be ready to respond to

245
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 2: any potential power outages. Thirteen thousand feet of k rail

246
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 2: are in place throughout the Palisades from all that wet

247
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 2: weather earlier this year. LASA has been conducting outreach to

248
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:12,080
Speaker 2: inform unhoused Angelinos of the inclement weather, to provide them

249
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 2: with safety information and supplies, and looking to get all

250
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 2: of the homeless people who are near waterways and areas

251
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 2: prone to flooding out of that area. We don't want

252
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 2: to see those swift swift water rescues tomorrow. Storm on

253
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 2: the way, it's rain. Hopefully it's just rain, you know.

254
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 2: The government to shut down, of course, that means some

255
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 2: things aren't going so well for the National Parks and

256
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 2: apparently up in Yosemite, chaos has ensued since October first,

257
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 2: reports of illegal base jumping from El Capitan squatters filling

258
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 2: up campgrounds and climbers using the half doned cables without permits,

259
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 2: ring to multiple media reports, where would they get permits?

260
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 2: The San Francisco Chronicle says it's unclear exactly how many

261
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,559
Speaker 2: federal employees are working in the park. Most Yosemite staff

262
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 2: have been furloughed since the beginning the beginning of the month.

263
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 2: You know, base jumping, it's when people just go run

264
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 2: and jump off of a big building or a cliff.

265
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 2: It was actually pioneered in Yosemite during the seventies and

266
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 2: it was outlawed in the eighties. They were like, we'll

267
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 2: do anything during the eighties that is too much. You

268
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 2: might have heard were about big, crazy things. The hair

269
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 2: is out of control, the shoulder pads unreal, the synthesizers

270
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 2: in every song. But jumping off of a large cliff

271
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 2: we will not do. And obviously it's because people die

272
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 2: doing it.

273
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 3: Crazy. Uh.

274
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 2: I think with the with this too, it's every time

275
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 2: we do a government shutdown, there is this sense of

276
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 2: like it'll be over in a couple of minutes, it'll

277
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 2: be over in a couple of days, it'll be over

278
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 2: in a couple of weeks. Now it might go on

279
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 2: for a few months. I don't know what's gonna happen.

280
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 2: It's hard to say. Coming up, we're also going to

281
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 2: talk about the longest lasting car brands. That's fun. What

282
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 2: I think is obvious is probably what you already know.

283
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 2: The longest lasting car brands would be boys, what do

284
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 2: we take, Well, Ford's got to be up there. You

285
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 2: think that's a that's a high reliability one. Oh well,

286
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 2: the longest lasting in terms of yeah, I don't mean

287
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 2: like it's been around for the longest.

288
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 5: Oh, okay, English, Sorry, it's gotta be the uh, the

289
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 5: Toyotas then, or Honda Honda Sorry.

290
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 2: Okay, Honda Honda and Toyota. Yeah, Honda Toyota Lex is accurate.

291
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 2: Those are always like the top. What I'm going to

292
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 2: get into later is what are the worst. Maybe you're

293
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 2: looking to save some money and buy a used lug vehicle.

294
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 2: Maybe one of those land Rover discoveries popped up on

295
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 2: Facebook marketplace for like three thousand dollars. So you ever

296
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 2: wonder why a twenty year old land Rover is only

297
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 2: three grand. There's a perfectly good reason for it. We'll

298
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 2: get into that. Plus, if you're traveling around the country today,

299
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 2: weather a lot of weather, over five hundred canceled flights

300
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 2: as of this evening, according to flight Aware, the FAA

301
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 2: says most of those were weather related, but there are sighting.

302
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 2: They are citing staffing issues at the Austin Airport. They

303
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 2: implemented a ground stop for flights there. Flights departing for

304
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 2: Austin delayed an average of forty minutes. Of course, on

305
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 2: October sixth, over here in Burbank, the control tower went

306
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 2: unstaffed for a few hours overnight yikes, leading to flight

307
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 2: delays in the area. But they really don't fly much

308
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 2: overnight out of Burbank, as many of the people in

309
00:16:55,000 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 2: Burbank would tell you, they are happy about. Mister Honnor

310
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 2: ready when you are, Yeah, let's do it.

311
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 1: You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.

312
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 2: It's a six forty. I'm Andy Reesmeyer. We can find

313
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,560

Speaker 8: Now, Christina, Yeah, And just to give you an idea

349
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 8: of how early investigators must have been looking at this suspect.

350
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:47,360
Speaker 8: They talked to this passenger and his girlfriend back in February. Now,

351
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 8: back then, they didn't tell him what this was all about,

352
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 8: so they had no idea until they saw the coverage

353
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:53,120
Speaker 8: this week.

354
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 2: Take a look. I couldn't believe it.

355
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 6: I feel like I was witnessed in the middle of history.

356
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 8: On accident Brennan White showing me the receipt for an

357
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 8: Uber ride with a driver named John on New Year's Eve,

358
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:10,360
Speaker 8: right before investigators believe Uber driver Jonathan Rindernecked started a

359
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 8: fire that eventually erupted into the Palisades fire.

360
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 6: I got an uber ride and it was late at night,

361
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 6: and the uber driver was acting super crazy. He was

362
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 6: going on we weren't even really talking to he was

363
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 6: just ranting, going on rams about Trump and now I

364
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,920
Speaker 6: hated Trump so much, and how he can't find a girlfriend.

365
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,479
Speaker 6: There's no good girls out here. Really, just mad at

366
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 6: the world.

367
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 2: I'm so curious about how long this uber ride was

368
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,640
Speaker 2: and if he at any point said maybe he looked

369
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:37,959
Speaker 2: at his girlfriend. I was like, we got to get

370
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 2: out of here. See, this was one of the things

371
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 2: back in the day in taxicab land, when there was

372
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 2: just anonymity. I mean, things were far worse, but you

373
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 2: could just say let me add over here and that

374
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 2: was it and you'd go about your day. Now you're

375
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 2: all connected on the internet. You got a whack job

376
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:59,680
Speaker 2: who obviously is setting fires, or allegedly setting fires, burner

377
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:07,679
Speaker 2: down communities. It's a little bit scary here. Really just

378
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 2: mad at the world.

379
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 6: Dropped us off, didn't think anything of it, and then.

380
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 2: It's all this, this is a crazy this is a

381
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 2: normal thing for this guy in an uber. It just

382
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 2: shows you where things have gotten. I guess with some

383
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 2: uber experiences, or you can have all of the things

384
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,199
Speaker 2: that he just accused this man of talking to him

385
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 2: about and then didn't think anything of it, anything of it.

386
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,600

00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,680
Speaker 2: data of over one hundred and seventy four million vehicles

470
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:53,919
Speaker 2: confirmed that Japanese car reputation for durability is well earned. Toyota, Alexis, Honda,

471
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 2: and Acura all producing cars with a better than average

472
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 2: chance of hitting two hundred and fifty thousand Toyota. Toyota

473
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:06,879
Speaker 2: has a seventeen point eight chance percent chance rather of

474
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,879
Speaker 2: lasting two hundred and fifty thousand miles, going to a

475
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 2: quarter million miles. Lexus came in second, Honda, third, Acura,

476
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 2: fourth GMC, fifth Tesla amazingly at sixth, which is crazy

477
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 2: because I can't imagine there's even that many Teslas that

478
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 2: are old enough to have two hundred and fifty thousand miles.

479
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 2: But life is a great mystery, I guess. Down at

480
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:33,120
Speaker 2: the bottom of the list, no surprise the European manufacturers,

481
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 2: the Yuppi sleds like the BMW at number twenty six

482
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 2: a point four percent chance, followed by Volkswagen Audi land

483
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 2: Rover at point one percent chance. Rounding out the list

484
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 2: Jaguar yeah, yeah, zero percent literally zero point to no

485
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 2: one surprise zero and then Mini, which is a surprise

486
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 2: to me. After that, but maybe people just don't I

487
00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 2: don't know, Maybe people crash their minis. I feel like

488
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,359
Speaker 2: I know about a lot of Mini drivers who who

489
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 2: can't keep those minis around for long. And then Maserati

490
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 2: is at the bottom with a zero percent. But as

491
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 2: we know, things that are Italian are meant to be

492
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 2: beautiful yet impermanent. They are in permitent. It's the ephemeral

493
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 2: beauty of an Italian motor vehicle. All right, So there

494
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 2: you go. I see that a lot. I get a

495
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 2: lot of Facebook Messenger ads or Facebook marketplace ads for

496
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 2: these cool fifteen twenty year old range Rovers. And they're cheap.

497
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 2: You know, they're two thousand dollars, they're three thousand dollars.

498
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 2: Do they cost more if they move?

499
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 3: Yeah?

500
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 2: I mean absolutely, Like these are cars that maybe we'll

501
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 2: start once. I looked at one of them because I

502
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,199
Speaker 2: was kind of curious, you know, I have I have

503
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 2: a sort of a problem with buying cars, like old cars,

504
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 2: old junkie cars. Like Jay Leno did it right, you know,

505
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 2: he's like got money and he has like one hundred

506
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 2: years like the first car ever made I got. I

507
00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 2: like end up getting swindled into a twenty five year

508
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 2: old land Rover that has a timing chain issue. And

509
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:05,679
Speaker 2: like I went and looked at this car and I

510
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 2: drove it around. It was up at Burbank and I

511
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:09,440
Speaker 2: drove it and I got it back, and I kid

512
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,119
Speaker 2: you not, I was like, well, steering's kind of I

513
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 2: didn't notice this when we took it out. Steering's just

514
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,119
Speaker 2: really there's a lot of play in the steering. But

515
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 2: get it back and park and the tyrod had failed

516
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 2: on the test drive. So the I park it and

517
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 2: you turn in the wheel and the left wheel doesn't

518
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,159
Speaker 2: move and the right wheel does move, which is a

519
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 2: that's just that's just used car European car ownership, all right.

520
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:37,159
Speaker 5: I think if you're rich enough to be able to

521
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 5: buy a land Rover, knew the strategy is to pawn

522
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 5: it off on somebody like us, yes, before it starts

523
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 5: to go haywire.

524
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

525
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 2: And I don't know what that is about the Psyche

526
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 2: because I don't want a new one. You know, even

527
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 2: if I could afford a new one, I wouldn't want

528
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 2: a new one. But I see one that's like twenty

529
00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 2: years old, and I think, man, that's so cool because

530
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 2: it's only like three grand. Okay, if it's three grand,

531
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 2: how much money would I have to put into it

532
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 2: for it to be a reliable car. That's a trick.

533
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 2: It'll never be reliable. Now, just put it on your

534
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 2: front lawn next to your non working washing machine. Yeah.

535
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 2: Another one. I looked at the they have a lot

536
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 2: of issues with leaks in the sun roof. So the

537
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 2: entire headline. What is it called the roofliner? What is it?

538
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 2: What is the word? Why am I losing it? I

539
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 2: got five minutes left. You've got a phasia? No time

540
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 2: to wrap it up? Oh, Bruce Willis, Okay. I went

541
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 2: to work this morning at five o'clock in the morning.

542
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 2: I did the morning show. I got off work there

543
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 2: at eleven thirty twelve whatever. I came into work here

544
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 2: it's six o'clock PM. So it's remarkable that I'm even

545
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 2: standing up.

546
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 5: Well, naps are important. I can't do it. There's a

547
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 5: comfy couch in the newsroom.

548
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 2: I can't. He's gonna prank you.

549
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 5: You're not gonna wake up with with sharpie on on

550
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 5: your on your forehead.

551
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 2: Well, there would have to be a little bit more

552
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 2: foot traffic for that to happen.

553
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 3: You know.

554
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 2: It's a very quiet place, very place to take a nap. Uh.

555
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 2: The the word that I'm looking for is slipping my mind.

556
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 2: But I get in there and the whole roof on

557
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 2: the inside of the car is just completely soaked through

558
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 2: and there's mold everywhere, and like, this is a car

559
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 2: that somebody's trying to sell just crazy, not a strong

560
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 2: selling point. No, no, you're right, I mean, and I'm

561
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,719
Speaker 2: doo dumb stuff, but that one. Even I got buddies,

562
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 2: even they know, they know my weakness, so they'll send

563
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 2: me these listings to these old trucks that are like,

564
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 2: oh yeah, here you go, and I'll say, man, even

565
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 2: for me, I even know that that's a bad idea.

566
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 2: Why is it the British stuff? Though?

567
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 5: The range Rovers look cool, they look like a real alpha,

568
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 5: like a Simon Templar Alpha male. And the Jags too,

569
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 5: those are those beautiful cars ever made, and their absolute

570
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 5: Cleveland Steamers totally.

571
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe it's because they don't like I'm

572
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 2: not sure. Maybe it's a joke, like they work better

573
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:04,960
Speaker 2: in England, but they send them over here and they're

574
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 2: they send the lemons over here. I don't I don't

575
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 2: understand it. When I look at a Jaguar also, I think, like,

576
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 2: that's a car that is designed to be you should smoke,

577
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 2: would drive it smoke cigarettes with the windows up, Like

578
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 2: that's the kind of vibe that that a Jaguar with

579
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 2: a holder Sorry, it's a Jaguar. A Jaguar a Jaguar.

580
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 2: A Jaguar. I don't know what the deal is why

581
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 2: they're so bad, because they're notorious. British things are. British

582
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 2: things are cool. But I guess they're just not known

583
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 2: for their reliability. I don't know what the story is.

584
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 2: It's too bad. There's no more beautiful car than like

585
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 2: a Jaguar XK.

586
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 8: E ooh.

587
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, one of those real grandma looking cars from the nineties,

588
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 2: like a cool, rich grandma car. Oh like, bury me

589
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 2: in it. Wait, what's a grandma car? I think, like

590
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 2: I imagine, like what I maybe this is my own upbringing.

591
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 2: But in the nineties, I remember seeing these Jaguars, these

592
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 2: beautiful Jaguars in Indiana that were only driven by affluent

593
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 2: older women.

594
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 5: Wait you're from Indiana. Oh yeah, I h My first

595
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 5: newspaper job was in Indiana and I went to grad

596
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 5: school at Purdue No way way Yeah, boilermaker, I'm afraid.

597
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 5: So yeah, but I think we're both happy to be

598
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 5: here now, and that's probably all I should say.

599
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, what part? What was the paper you worked at?

600
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 5: It was one of the hydra heads on the Gannette

601
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 5: Hydra's called The Journal and Courier in Lafayette and West Lafia.

602
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 2: Is it still in publication. I just checked in with.

603
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 5: A friend a couple of nights ago, and I think

604
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 5: there are print circulations down to something like thirty five hundred.

605
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 5: Oh man, So it's basically a pamphlet. Yeah, well, hey,

606
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 5: at least there's this. Having a background in Indiana can

607
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 5: only make you appreciate and love La more.

608
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 2: Absolutely, And I'd still love Indiana. My family's still there.

609
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,280
Speaker 2: I think it's a great place to grow up. They Indianapolis,

610
00:32:56,320 --> 00:33:00,920
Speaker 2: So the whole whole crew in Indianapolis. My brother, other

611
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 2: family as well down there. So it's a good place

612
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 2: to be from. And honestly, I go back there. This

613
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,480
Speaker 2: is the thing that's so annoying about how life can be.

614
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 2: I grew up. I couldn't wait to get out of there.

615
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 2: There was nothing going on. The most popular thing was

616
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 2: that our high school rival re like the school that

617
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 2: we had the biggest rivalry with. Our rival had a

618
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 2: claim to fame in that David Letterman went to school.

619
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 2: There wasn't even our school.

620
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah, the Letterman, he's god there, right, And

621
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 5: so I interviewed Letterman's mom once and it was like

622
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 5: the story of the year in my little paper.

623
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 2: That's awesome.

624
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 5: She told me how she made his fried bloney sandwiches.

625
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,200

626
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 5: just want to hug her. I mean your chance to

627
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 5: do that has elapsed. Well at the time, that's all right, Yeah, but.

628
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I mean she you know, he was

629
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 2: a big deal. But that was pretty much the only

630
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 2: thing that we had going on, right, And years go

631
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,200

632

Speaker 2: time I had no idea, Yeah, silly.

635
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 5: I think Lafayette is the place with the highest tattoo

636
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 5: to tooth ratio. Ily not much to distinguish it.

637
