Speaker 5: place right in front of my front yard, and I

75
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 5: feel so bad that you know, it got this far.

76
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: Montclair police say it started when several people got into

77

78
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,320

Speaker 1: people in the car, but she was able to get away.

Speaker 1: Another person ran off. Police say all four people knew

83
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: each other. An active shooter reported a hospital in Newport

84
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,680

Speaker 1: Realise say they got a call of shots fired at

89
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 1: another hospital in the area on Monday night. It turned

90
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 1: out to be a false alarm.

91
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 3: As well.

92
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,120

94

00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 6: victims of sex abuse. Supervisor Catherine Barker says the county

98
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 6: has accepted responsibility in its multi billion dollar settlement.

99
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 7: We know that there are thousands of victims who suffered

100
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 7: terrible abuse at the hands of trusted adults.

101
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:14,919
Speaker 6: But she says if the law firm that sued the

102
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,359
Speaker 6: county paid money to vulnerable people outside government service buildings

103
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 6: to make their claims, something should be done. The law

104
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 6: firm denies it paid anyone. Michael Monks KFI News.

105
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:30,760

106
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 3: He hasn't been home all night.

107
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:38,520

108
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: from the front yard of a home in Corona. It

109
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,840
Speaker 1: was caught on a home security camera. The footage shows

110
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: someone wearing a dark hoodie hauling Jack down an alley

111
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: and onto the top of a car early Saturday morning

112
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,679
Speaker 1: on Grand Avenue. Anyone who's seen Jack is being asked

113
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 1: to call Corona Police. Let's say good morning now to

114
00:05:54,360 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: ABC's transportation reporter Clara McMichael. Clara, on Monday, Hey, the

115
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 1: Hollywood Burbank Airport didn't have any air traffic controllers on

116
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,280
Speaker 1: site for like six hours and Bourbank is not the

117
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: only airport affected.

118
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 3: What's going on now?

119
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 8: Good morning. So, yes, we're now over a week into

120
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 8: the shutdown and we're seeing it start to impact flights nationwide,

121
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 8: and that's because we're seeing some air traffic controllers start

122
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 8: to call out sick. So, as we know, staffing has

123
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 8: been a big issue with air traffic control for years,

124
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 8: and the margins are so thin that when you have

125
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 8: even just a few controllers calling out back in a

126
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,119
Speaker 8: major impact. So, as you said, we saw the start

127
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 8: on Monday with Burbank, then yesterday we saw thousands more

128
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 8: delays and staffing issues at multiple other air traffic control

129
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 8: facilities across the country. So experts say that the longer

130
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 8: the shutdown goes the worst, these issues could become.

131
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 1: Okay and Clara, so what are some of the risks

132
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 1: of happening, Like for the Burbank air traffic control, they

133
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: didn't have anyone in the tower, but another group took

134
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: over air traffic control, and I would venture to say

135
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: that they've already got their hands full. And you talked

136
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: about the shorting, the staff shortages that they've already had,

137
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 1: so it's kind of just overloading the system, right.

138
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 8: It definitely is an overload in some places, and not

139
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 8: just Bourbank. We saw it happened last night in Nashville

140
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 8: as well when some of those flights had to be

141
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 8: passed off to controllers in Memphis. But there are so

142
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 8: many layers of redundancy in the national airspace. There are

143
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 8: more than ten thousand controllers working, and they'll continue to work.

144
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 8: When there aren't enough controllers for a certain area. That's

145
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 8: when they reduce the number of flights, and that's to

146
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 8: ensure that the airspace remains safe. So while passengers may

147
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 8: be slightly inconvenienced with a delay, it's still safe and

148
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 8: to fly.

149
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,559
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, that's good news. I'm glad to hear that, Clara,

150
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: So let's talk about the air traffic controllers and they're

151
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 1: calling in sick. Last time there was the long government

152
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: shut down, it was like thirty five days, and they

153
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 1: didn't start calling in until much further into the shutdown.

154
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 3: This time, they're starting early.

155
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 8: That's right. Last time it was over a month. This

156
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 8: time it is just a little over a week. And

157
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 8: last time you saw that that was a pivotal point

158
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 8: in putting pressure on politicians to get this figured out.

159
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 8: We're definitely going to be watching to see if it

160
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 8: has the same impact this time.

161
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 4: Now.

162
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 8: These control the controllers work very stressful jobs six days

163
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 8: a week, ten hours a day in some cases, and

164
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 8: they're in charge of safety. You add in that they're

165
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 8: not getting paid and that's when it gets to a

166
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 8: breaking point with childcare, food, medical expenses. So that's what's

167
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 8: leading to folks calling out sake.

168
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: Okay, and just for clarification, they're they're not getting their paychecks.

169
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 1: They will get paid, but it's delayed, and if you're

170
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:51,559
Speaker 1: you know, if you don't have an extra ten thousand

171
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 1: dollars sitting around that that can really put pressure on it.

172
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 3: But they do get paid once the shutdown is over.

173
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 8: That's right, they will get that back pay. They have

174
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 8: one more partial paycheck coming on October fourteenth. But a

175
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 8: lot of these folks live paycheck to paycheck, and when

176
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,079
Speaker 8: you have those expenses to think about. Last last shut down,

177
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 8: you even saw some start driving for Uber in order

178
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,559
Speaker 8: to make some extra cash. So we'll we may be

179
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 8: seeing those same issues this time.

180
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: Okay, And then a quick question, do you know, Clara,

181
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: is there an air traffic controllers union?

182
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 8: There is an air traffic controllers union.

183
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 3: Do you know what's they're telling their people to call

184
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 3: in or call out sick?

185
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 8: They are definitely not telling their people to call out sick.

186
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 8: And this isn't like a coordinated thing, you know. A

187
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 8: secretary Transportation Secretary Jean Duffy said, it's spread out over

188
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 8: a bunch of airports, but I think everybody understands the

189
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 8: plight that these controllers are in.

190
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: Right, Okay, all right, just wanted to clarify that. ABC's

191
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: Clara McMichael, Transportation reporter.

192
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 3: Thanks so much.

193
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: We'll probably be talking to you again soon if they

194
00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:58,959
Speaker 1: don't get this thing resolved.

195
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 8: I look forward to it.

196
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 3: Thanks great, Thanks so.

197
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: Much, Clara. Let's get back to some of the stories.

198
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: Coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Homeland

199
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 1: Security Secretary Christy Nome is in Portland, Oregon, where President

200
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: Trump is ordered a National Guard deployment. She met with

201
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 1: police Chief Bob Day and other Oregon police representatives. Chief

202
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: Day admits that there are some differences of opinion between

203
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 1: Nome and local police, but they have to talk to

204
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: one another.

205
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:29,679
Speaker 4: Appreciate having lines of communication, and I believe that communication

206
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 4: is the first step to resolving our differences.

207
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: A federal judge is temporarily blocked to the Trump administration

208
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 1: from sending any Guard members to Portland. Former FBI Director

209
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,719
Speaker 1: James Comy is said to be arraigned in Virginia on

210
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: federal charges of providing false statements and obstruction of a

211
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: congressional proceeding. The charges are related to Comy's twenty twenty

212
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: testimony to Congress, where he allegedly lied about his knowledge

213
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 1: of a leak of classified information, which was later reported

214
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 1: by several news outlets. President Trump fired Comy over the

215
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: FBI's investigation into alleged Russian election meddling in the twenty

216
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 1: sixteen presidential election. High stakes talks to end the war

217
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: between Israel and Hamas in Gaza continuing in Egypt. They're

218
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: going into day three.

219
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 6: Top officials from the US, Cutah, Turkey, and Israel set

220
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 6: to join as momentum grows for a deal to end

221
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 6: the war and bring all the remaining hostages home.

222
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: ABC's Ian Panalsa's Hamas wants guarantees that Israel will not

223
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: restart the war once the remaining hostages are released. The

224
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: terror group also has not accepted a condition to disarm

225
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: and leave Gaza. It's been two years since Hamas's cross

226
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: border attack on Israel that started the war. The Trump

227
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: administration has warned that there may be no back pay

228
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: for some federal workers affected by the shutdown.

229
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 9: That would be a reversal of what's been a long

230
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:51,119
Speaker 9: standing policy for some seven hundred and fifty thousand furloughed employees.

231
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 9: Trump said some people don't deserve to be taken care

232
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 9: of during an event at the White House. A memo

233
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 9: being circulated by the White House yesterday said legislation the

234
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 9: President signed into law in twenty nineteen does not require

235
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 9: back pay. The memo said it's up to Congress to

236
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 9: provide the funds. The move was widely seen as a

237
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,199
Speaker 9: negotiating tactic debor Mark KFFI News.

238
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 1: The National Hurricane Center says tropical Storm Jerry has strengthened

239
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,079
Speaker 1: in the Atlantic Ocean and is on a path toward

240
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,199
Speaker 1: the Caribbean. It's expected to strengthen into a hurricane in

241
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 1: the coming days. Hurricane Priscilla continues to churn in the

242
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 1: Pacific Ocean off the coast of Mexico. A tropical storm

243
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: watch is in place for Baja California, and Tropical Storm Octave,

244
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 1: further out in the Atlantic or actually in the Pacific,

245
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 1: is weakening. One in five adults are still addicted to tobacco.

246
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 1: A report by the World Health Organization shows the number

247
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: of tobacco users has dropped from one point three to

248
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: eight billion in the year two thousand to one point

249
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 1: two billion in twenty twenty four. The report shows that

250
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: there are at least eighty six million e cigarette users

251
00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:00,680
Speaker 1: and at least fifteen million children ages thirteen to fifteen

252
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: used the product. A WHO official says e cigarettes are

253
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:09,439
Speaker 1: fueling a new wave of nicotine addiction and Chicago may

254
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,199
Speaker 1: not be the hell hole that President Trump has called it.

255
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 5: As National Guard troops head to Chicago on orders from

256
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 5: President Trump to crack down on crime and what he's

257
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 5: called a hellhole. Others have quite a different opinion. Chicago's

258
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 5: being named the best city in the country for the

259
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,719
Speaker 5: ninth year in a row. The city was recognized by

260
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 5: Conde Nas Travelers Reader's Choice Awards. Chicago was also named

261
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 5: the friendliest city in the World by the UK edition

262
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 5: of Conde Nass Traveler. The rest of the top five

263
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 5: include San Francisco, Milwaukee, Portland, which Trump called war ravaged

264
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 5: and said he's considering using the Insurrection Act for and

Speaker 5: New Orleans. Mark Ronner KFI News.

266
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 1: The Senate plans to vote again today on the House

267
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: passed Continuing Resolution spending bill, and also on the Democrats

268
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: spending plan that adds one and a half trillion dollars

269
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 1: to the budget. Both bills have already failed five times

270
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 1: on the Senate floor. This is the eighth day of

271
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: the government shutdown. Getting rid of the trash is about

272
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: to cost you more. The La City Council's given preliminary

273
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 1: approval to rising or raising trash collection fees. It would

274
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: be the first rate hike in seventeen years, and it's

275
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: a big one. Single family homes and small apartment fees

276
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 1: would increase about fifty four percent to fifty five ninety

277
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 1: five a month. If it's given final approval, rates would

278
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 1: go up next month. San Francisco leaders are pushing back

279
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 1: after Governor Newsom veto to bill meant to create more

280
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 1: drug free housing for the homeless. They say not funding

281
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 1: sober living for the homeless hinders recovery efforts. Current policies

282
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: do not require people to be sober or drug free

283
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: to move in. Newsom says he vetoed the bill because

284
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: existing regulations already support recovery housing. Let's say good morning

285
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 1: now to the host of Rich on Tech on KFI.

286
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 1: It's KTLA's tech reporter Rich DeMuro.

287
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 7: Morning, Rich, good morning to you.

288
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 4: Amy.

289
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 1: It's day two of Prime Days on Amazon, and I

290
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: put a several things in my cart, but nothing's on

291
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 1: sale right now.

292
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 3: So are there some good deals out there?

293
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 7: I do think there are a good deals. So this

294
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 7: is the final day of Prime big deal days. Don't

295
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 7: assume everything is a bargain. So my advice is to

296
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 7: check the price history before you actually buy, because they've

297
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 7: got a lot of labels that make things seem like

298
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 7: they're a big deal, but sometimes.

299
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 4: It's just a dollar off the you know.

300
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 7: Standard asking price. But two ways you can check Number one.

301
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 7: Rufus this is their built in AI shopping assistant. Is

302
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 7: on every Amazon shopping page. Just tap it and ask

303
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 7: for price history. You can type that right in you'll

304
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 7: see a thirty or ninety day chart of the recent prices.

305
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 7: Or you can go to camel Camel Camel and now

306
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 7: I'll do like sort of a nice graph of the

307
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 7: price of the past six months, year, or whatever you want.

308
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 7: I got a question finding yes, rufous.

309
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 3: Where do you find rufus. It's on the Amazon.

310
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 7: Side any Yeah, any Amazon product page, you'll see it.

311
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 7: It depends if you're on the phone or on the

312
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 7: the desktop. If you're on the desktop, it's right underneath

313
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 7: the product pictures. If you're on the phone, it's in

314
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 7: the lower right hand corner, so you tap that. It's

315
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 7: basically like a chatbot, and you can ask all kinds

316
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 7: of questions one of them. Yeah, And it's really handy

317
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 7: for products too, like if you're trying to figure out

318
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 7: what kind of batteries of product takes, or like if

319
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 7: a product does a certain thing. It can answer a

320
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 7: lot of things or similar products. I mean, it's actually

321
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 7: pretty good.

322
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 4: Anyway.

323
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 7: I put a lot of my picks on my website

324
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 7: rich On tech dot TV. Kindle paper white, lowest price ever,

325
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 7: iPad two hundred and eighty bucks, AirPods ninety bucks, Bose

326
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 7: headphones two hundred dollars, Echo Spot forty five bucks, all

327
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 7: kinds of stuff that I personally would buy listed on

328
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 7: the website rich on tech dot TV. And yes, I

329
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 7: bought a bunch of stuff yesterday, Amy, And if you

330
00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 7: can believe it, I got a message from Amazon last night.

331
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 7: We're sorry. We couldn't leave your stuff in a secure area,

332
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 7: so we didn't do the delivery. I was like, I

333
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 7: don't believe that, because they leave every package in front

334
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 7: of my mind for ten years now, I know.

335
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've never had anything left in a secure area.

336
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, me either. In fact, I have a secure area,

337
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 7: and they leave it in the area that's not secure,

338
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 7: so they go out of their way to make sure

339
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 7: it's not secure. So I don't know if someone just

340
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 7: got a little bit like I'm tired, I don't feel

341
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 7: like delivering. I also was surprised that they were delivering

342
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 7: everything I ordered the same day, which is pretty amazing,

343
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 7: But I didn't get it, so I guess it's not amazing.

344
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:24,120
Speaker 4: Yeah.

345
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 1: I am constantly amazed at how quickly they can get

346
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: stuff too, you, especially when they do that same day thing.

347
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: A lot of my stuff doesn't come someday same day,

348
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 1: but when it does, I'm like, wow, that's amazing. Okay, yeah,

349
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: let's move on to another Amazon topic, and that is

350
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 1: that you might be able to pick up your prescriptions

351
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 1: out of a vending machine or something.

352
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 7: Now, yeah, I thought this was so cool. So you know,

353
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 7: Amazon has these medical offices called One Medical. I've got

354
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 7: them at various places around Los Angeles. Well, now they're

355
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:59,679
Speaker 7: going to put self service pharmacy kiosks inside those offices,

356
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 7: so starting in December, basically, if the doctor prescribes you

357
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 7: something like antibiotics and inhaler, blood pressure drugs, all the

358
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 7: common stuff, you literally just walk out to this kiosk,

359
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,360
Speaker 7: scan a QR code, and you get your prescription instantly.

360
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 7: So it's stocked with like all of the you know,

361
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 7: standard medications. Takes minutes instead of waiting in line or

362
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 7: going somewhere else. And I just thought this was a

363
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 7: super smart idea. Obviously, Amazon throws a lot at the

364
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 7: wall to see what sticks we'll see if they stick around.

365
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 7: But kind of a new way to get medicine instantly

366
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:33,640
Speaker 7: after your doctor's appointment.

367
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, and not have.

368
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 1: To wait in line with all the sick put people

369
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 1: at the pharmacy at CBS.

370
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, which you know.

371
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 7: That's like you're like, I'll be back next week for

372
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 7: something else because now I'm sick for real exactly.

373
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,479
Speaker 1: Okay, Ways has a new feature tell us about it.

374
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 7: So I thought this was cool. I actually saw a

375
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 7: demo of this feature last year in New York City

376
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 7: that tells you how long some of these things take

377
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 7: to roll out. But it's called conversational Report. If you

378
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 7: use Ways, you know, you press that little button to

379
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 7: help report things to other drivers behind you, like if

380
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 7: there's an officer, or if there is a car that's

381
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,679
Speaker 7: stuck on the road or something in the lane. You

382
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 7: can alert drivers behind you. Well, typically you have to

383
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 7: press a button and then look at the options and

384
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 7: press a couple other buttons to report that stuff. Now

385
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 7: you can just press one button and speak naturally, saying

386
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 7: something like object in road, there's construction on the road,

387
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 7: there's a speed trap, there's cars jammed up here, and

388
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 7: AI will interpret what you say and then file that

389
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 7: away and help alert other drivers, so less fiddling with

390
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 7: menus while you're driving. I thought this was really cool.

391
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 3: I like that.

392
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,160
Speaker 1: So it doesn't you won't hear people tell you, hey,

393
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:46,239
Speaker 1: there's a car that's on fire coming up. You'll hear that,

394
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: but it takes the what you tell it and then

395
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 1: turns it into an alert.

396
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 7: Yes, you still have to tune into KFI for that,

397
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 7: but if you want to just like object and road ahead,

398
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 7: you know, it'll just it'll just it's just basically helping

399
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 7: people use their voice to tell what's wrong instead of

400
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 7: tapping your screen a million times while you're driving, which

401
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 7: I say on my show every week. Do not drive distracted.

402
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 7: Put the phone down. It can wait. Please please please please.

403
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 1: I know.

404
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 3: But you want to help people rich, you want to

405
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 3: help people.

406
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 7: Well that's that's okay. You can help, but do it safely,

407
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 7: all right.

408
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 1: So this is a great This sounds like a great

409
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: feature to help you do that stay safer. UCLA new

410
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,119
Speaker 1: Esports Gaming Center tell us about that.

411
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, So I visited this last week, brand new at

412
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 7: UCLA e Sports and Gaming Lounge inside their student union.

413
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 7: So thirty alien Ware PCs, which are super high end.

414
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 7: They've got all the high end processors, graphics displays, wireless keyboard,

415
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 7: wireless mouse, headphones. It's just such a cool setup. So

416
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,120
Speaker 7: it's for students to come and play video games. Now

417
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 7: why you know, students have these in their dorms and

418
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,239
Speaker 7: this and that, but these are high end. Plus it's

419
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 7: a sense of communit. The plus, you know, esports has

420
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,399
Speaker 7: actually become kind of a big deal around college campuses,

421
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 7: and so it's you know, people can go into careers

422
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 7: that involve esports, not only as an esports athlete. I

423
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 7: know that sounds silly, but yes, there are people paid

424
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 7: money to play video games. But there's also a whole

425
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 7: business around it, just like a movie business or any

426
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 7: other business. So they need people to do finance and

427
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 7: marketing and this and that. So the idea is that

428
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 7: Alien were teams up with these schools to get kids

429
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 7: not just playing video games, but interested in the potential

430
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:31,679
Speaker 7: beyond just the screen.

431
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 3: Okay, and it's only open to students though, right.

432
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 7: As far as I know, I think, you know, you'd

433
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 7: be kind of weird if I walked in there. I'm like, hey,

434
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 7: what's up, kids, I want to play?

435
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,400
Speaker 3: Okay, And then real quick.

436
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: I want to get an update on the Apple Watch.

437
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,640
Speaker 1: And it's something cool that helps you, you know, find

438
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 1: out how you're feeling.

439
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 4: I don't know.

440
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 7: I've just been testing this app and it you know,

441
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,640
Speaker 7: the Apple Watch collects so much data, but actually seeing

442
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:01,679
Speaker 7: any of the data it's like impossible. Like all I

443
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:03,159
Speaker 7: see are my rings and I'm like, all right, I

444
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,639
Speaker 7: finished my rings today. A big deal. This app is

445
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 7: called bevel b e ve e L and it gives

446
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 7: you so much more actionable info about the data that

447
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,360
Speaker 7: your Apple Watch is collecting. So, for instance, it gives

448
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 7: you how hard you're working, out, how much recovery you've had,

449
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 7: how much sleep you're getting, and it gives your energy bank,

450
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 7: like right now, my battery. It gives me literally a

451
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 7: little battery of my life and I'm at seventy nine percent,

452
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 7: which is scary because I just woke up, so.

453
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,159
Speaker 3: You haven't had enough pulse yet, you haven't put any gas.

454
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 7: It tells me my stress is at fifty seven percent

455
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 7: right now, So I mean, it's really it's just it's

456
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 7: such a cool dashboard of all of your vitals. I

457
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 7: can see my resting heart rate, my regular heart rate,

458
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 7: my oxygen, my sleep my temperature. I mean, it's really

459
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 7: really the best app I've seen in putting all your

460
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 7: data in one place. And also you can chat with

461
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 7: the app. So after you take a run, says hey,

462
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 7: that was a great run, blah blah blah, and I said,

463
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 7: how much water do I need to drink?

464
00:22:59,359 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 5: Now?

465
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 7: Place all that sweat and it will tell you. So anyway,

466
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,120
Speaker 7: test it out. It's called BEVLL. I think you got

467
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:06,679
Speaker 7: to pay fifty bucks a year if you want this

468
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,239
Speaker 7: for real, because I'm still on the free trial. But

469
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,720

00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 3: Them on to you.

541
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,160
Speaker 1: Last week I mentioned Chad Powers. It's still brand new,

542
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:38,399
Speaker 1: just three episodes have dropped. Uh it's on Hulu, and uh,

543
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:42,199
Speaker 1: I was reserving judgment on it. Like I liked it,

544
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 1: I didn't love it. I wasn't sure. I think it

545
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,400
Speaker 1: was a little over the top. But it's the show

546
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 1: that stars Glenn Powell as a quarterback basically has to

547
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 1: go undercover because he's ruined his football career and has

548
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,119
Speaker 1: to go undercover to try to get onto a team again.

549
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 1: And I watched episode three yes day and I loved

550
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 1: episode three. So remember I said I was preserving judgment.

551
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,679
Speaker 1: Right now I'm leaning toward it, So you might want

552
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 1: to check out Chad powis Okay Roy Kent as you've

553
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,440
Speaker 1: never seen him. He stars in a movie called All

554
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 1: of You on Apple TV Plus. It's about a man

555
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 1: and a woman, Simon and Laura. They've been best friends

556
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 1: since college, but she wants to find the one, so

557
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 1: she takes this test which is supposed to help you

558
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 1: find a soulmate. They don't really explain the test, like

559
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 1: is it an online dating test or is it a

560
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,679
Speaker 1: test that tells you why your soulmate is or or

561
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 1: who your soulmate is? And then you go from there.

562
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: It's it's a little bit unclear, but everybody's taking this

563
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,160
Speaker 1: test and then they're worried that it's going to wreck

564
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,919
Speaker 1: their friendship and all that stuff. So the movie starts

565
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 1: off kind of slow, and I'm thinking, what is the

566
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 1: point of this movie? And I was almost going to

567
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:54,679
Speaker 1: give it up, And then there was this twist, and

568
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 1: then there was another twist, and then there was another

569
00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:02,679
Speaker 1: twist because it's about friend who've always been friends and

570
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: how if one of them gets into a love relationship,

571
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:08,479
Speaker 1: it's going to mess up their friendship. Right, there are

572
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 1: things that I feel don't get explored enough. But it's

573
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,159
Speaker 1: also compelling enough to keep me watching. Sometimes it was predictable,

574
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 1: sometimes it was surprising, And for a while I've got

575
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 1: Roy Kent on the brain right because it's Brett Goldstein.

576
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 1: I mean, he is Roy Kent, and I think, honestly,

577
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 1: I like Roy Kent better than this guy. But Brett

578
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 1: is a great actor, and he does a great job

579
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,399
Speaker 1: in this role. And after a while you kind of

580
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 1: forget the Roy Kent because his character is so different

581
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 1: than that. So both the actors, they do a great job.

582
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 1: If you want a lot of action, this probably isn't

583
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 1: for you. And if you want the best love story ever,

584
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: this probably isn't for you.

585
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 3: I can't say I.

586
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: Love this movie, but I did like it all of

587
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: you Apple TV. Plus, I wouldn't say rush to see it,

588
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 1: but you know, for a lazy Sunday afternoon, it's a

589
00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: good watch.

590
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 3: I'm on it. Maybe you should give it a shit too.

591
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 1: Time to get in your business now with Bloomberg's and

592
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 1: Dan Schwartzman, Good morning.

593
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 2: Dan, Good morning Amy. Is it more like the Roy

594
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 2: Kent from Shrinking? I guess sympathetic Brett Goldstein? Yeah, yeah, okay.

595
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 3: Kind of like that.

596
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 1: He's he's kind of a woos sometimes and like that

597
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,560
Speaker 1: is so not Roy Kent, right, But I mean, Brett's

598
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 1: such a great actor that it's still it's fun to watch.

599
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 3: I gotta watch it. Would you say the other those

600
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 3: Chad Powers? He said, Oh yeah, Chad Powers. I gotta

601
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 3: watch it. You gotta try.

602
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: It's a football show and it's outlandish and it's a

603
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: little bit over the top, and I wasn't sure, but

604
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 1: now I'm like, I loved this episode. Okay, let's talk

605
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 1: about if you bought a lot of gold a while ago,

606
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:46,719
Speaker 1: you're probably loving today.

607
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 2: Or just go through granny's closets and see if you

608
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 2: can find some. Because gold rose above four thousand dollars

609
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 2: in ounce for the first time due to concerns over

610
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 2: the economy and that continuing government shutdown. Overall, gold is

611
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 2: game fifty two percent this year, putting the traditional safe

612
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 2: haven on course for its strongest annual advance since nineteen

613
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 2: seventy nine. Just two years ago, gold trading below two

614
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 2: thousand dollars announced Amy Central banks have been a key

615
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 2: driver of gold's rally. They're flipping from being net sellers

616
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 2: to now net buyers following the global financial crisis.

617
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:21,560
Speaker 1: Okay, so yeah, it's crazy. Over fourth have four thousand

618
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 1: and sixty right now? Yeah, announced, I think I don't.

619
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 1: I think I have about a half an ounce in

620
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 1: a gold chain somewhere. Two grand Yeah, no kidding, okay.

621
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 1: And speaking of going up, mortgage rates, they're up. They

622
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 1: were down and now they're inching back up again, are they?

623
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 2: No, they slightly dropped last week. The rates are still

624
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 2: remaining elevated at just over six point four percent, that's

625
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 2: according to Mortgage Bankers Group. Meanwhile, applications for mortgages to

626
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 2: buy a home or refinance both fell for a second week.

627
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 2: The Mortgage Bankers Association's index of home purchase applications declined

628
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 2: one point two percent in the weekending October third, a

629
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 2: gauge of refine dancing file seven point seven percent. So

630
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 2: it's like every week, Amy, the news is just more sluggishness, right,

631
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 2: Like nothing's happening, it's not moving. So eh, Like you

632
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 2: want to buy a house, it may not be the

633
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 2: best time.

634
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 1: Okay, If you want to buy an electric vehicle, now,

635
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: maybe the best time. We talked about Tesla earlier and

636
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:21,960
Speaker 1: now they've owned officially unveiled their new cheaper cars.

637
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, they unveiled the new versions of the top selling models.

638
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 2: Priced at under forty grand. The EV Giant looks to

639
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 2: counteract the loss of those subsidies for electric cars. The

640
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 2: new standard versions of both the Model three Sedana model

641
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 2: YSUV started. It's just under thirty seven thousand and just

642
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 2: under forty thousand dollars. The prices amy are around thirteen

643
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 2: and eleven percent cheaper than the longer range versions of

644
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 2: each model. So why are they cheaper while they come

645
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 2: with less battery range and they don't offer the ambient

646
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,239
Speaker 2: interior lighting and that second row screen. So if you're

647
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 2: okay with that, hey have that at under forty grand

648
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 2: for a nice EV. Now you can do so with

649
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 2: Tesla's offerings.

650
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 1: I would be okay with the fewer SC I wouldn't

651
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 1: be okay with the shorter range, because that's what one

652
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 1: of the concerns is in the first place about them.

653
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 2: And I like the nbent interior lighting. It's nice.

654
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 3: I want that too.

655
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Dan Schwartzman Bloomberg getting in your business

656

Speaker 1: Thanks. Nashville International Airports air Traffic Control tower's gone dark

659
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 1: because of the government shutdown. Air traffic controllers have called

660
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 1: in sick, forcing the tower to close from seven to

661
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:33,080
Speaker 1: midnight last night. Pilots worked with a regional air traffic

662
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 1: control center in Memphis to safely land and take off

663
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 1: from Nashville. LAPD says it's arrested eight Mexican mafia members

664
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 1: and associates in San Pedro. The LAPED says it's looking

665
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 1: for six more people. The arrests are the result of

666
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 1: a multi year investigation. The Dodgers could clinch a spot

667
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 1: in the National League Championship Series with the win tonight

668
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 1: at Dodgers Stadium. LA's leading the series against Philadelphia two

669
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 1: games to none. First pitch goes out at six oh eight.

670
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 1: Of course, you can listen to all of the action

671
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 1: on our sister station, AM five P seventy k LAC.

672
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 1: We're just minutes away from handle. On the news this morning,

673
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 1: ag Pam Bondi is on the hot seat and she.

674
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 3: Fired back hard. Okay.

675
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 1: There's a brand new documentary on Prime Video and it's

676
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 1: called Case for Kindness. And in a world where people

677
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 1: are polar opposites, people have stopped being friends with others

678
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 1: who are on the other side of the aisle. Bullying

679
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:31,360
Speaker 1: is rampant, people socialize only on social media instead of

680
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,560
Speaker 1: face to face, and we're more separate and more alone

681
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 1: than ever.

682
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:39,080
Speaker 3: Well, now comes the Case for Kindness.

683
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 1: Would like to welcome the director of Case for Kindness,

684
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 1: Stephen so Walitch. Good morning, Stephen, good morning. Thank you

685
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: so much for joining us this morning. I saw the

686
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: press release on this and I'm like, oh my gosh,

687
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 1: I want to talk to this gentleman. And I watched

688
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 1: the documentary yesterday and I loved it. It's on Amazon Prime,

689
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 1: and so please please tell us what is the Case

690
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 1: for Kindness?

691
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 4: Oh? Thank you. Case for Kindness is a journey that

692
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:11,879
Speaker 4: we did it across the US to look at kind

693
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 4: of the different issues we face in the US today,

694
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:16,760
Speaker 4: like some of that you mentioned from bullying and hate,

695
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 4: racial injustice to gun violence, climate and looking at it

696
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:26,360
Speaker 4: through her lems of kindness, as well as exploring the

697
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,920
Speaker 4: science behind kindness and how it can affect your body emotionally,

698
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 4: mentally and physically.

699
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I loved learning the science behind kindness and how

700
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:39,360
Speaker 1: like it actually makes you feel better. And you discussed that,

701
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 1: and you you mentioned that bullying comes into play and

702
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 1: how maybe we can use kindness to combat that. And

703
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:53,319
Speaker 1: you spoke to the mother of a murdered child from

704
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 1: Sandy Hook Elementary.

705
00:34:55,040 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 4: She is extraordinary, She really is. Carlat Bleus lost her

706
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 4: son in Sandy Cook and you know, she as you know,

707
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 4: I can't imagine the pain in English that she went through,

708
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 4: as well as all the other families as lost others

709
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 4: and school shootings. And the other thing that Scarlett did

710
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 4: was she looked at it from a perspective of kindness

711
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 4: and looked at the shooter and you know, tried to

712
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:30,240
Speaker 4: understand why they did that. And you know, in doing that,

713
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 4: she kind of found her piece and purpose. And that's

714
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 4: kind of one of the themes we found throughout the film

715
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 4: is like our darkest moments, we can find our purpose.

716
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 4: And I think it's just how we choose to come

717
00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 4: out of that other side, is you know, how we

718
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 4: grow and together.

719
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I thought one of the things that she

720
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,720
Speaker 1: said that was so interesting, of course, is Adam Lanza

721
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:58,279
Speaker 1: murdered her son, and she said that instead of like

722
00:35:58,520 --> 00:35:59,839
Speaker 1: blaming the shooters, she.

723
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,240
Speaker 3: Said, to hurt people, hurt people.

724
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 1: And I thought that that was so profound because she

725
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,839
Speaker 1: was like, he obviously had issues, but what did they

726
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:09,479
Speaker 1: stem from?

727
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 3: You know, was he alone?

728
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 1: Was did people not show him kindness and that kind

729
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: of stuff? And so she kind of turned it around

730
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 1: and turned it into a nurturing and a healing moment,

731
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,319
Speaker 1: which I just thought was it was so beautiful and

732
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 1: I think the way you handled it was so great.

733
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 4: Oh thank you. That was a hard story to enter you.

734
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean, and I'm like tearing. I cry

735
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,320
Speaker 1: at the drop of a dime anyway, but I teared

736
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 1: up several times during this because it was just so

737
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:36,360
Speaker 1: like powerful about how we just need to stop, because

738
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 1: we're all so angry and wound up and maybe just

739
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 1: a little kindness would do us all a little good.

740
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,280
Speaker 4: Yeah. I don't think there's ever been a time before,

741
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 4: you know, or at least in recent my time, of

742
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 4: where we've been so polar opposite and we are kind

743
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,680
Speaker 4: of forced to choose a side. And you know, one

744
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 4: of the stories in there is Darryl Davis is an

745
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 4: Africa American journalist a musician that was writing a book

746
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:09,880
Speaker 4: about the KKK and he decided to interview members of

747
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:14,080
Speaker 4: the KKK, one being the you know, the head of

748
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 4: the organization. And you know, the thing that Daryl did

749
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,360
Speaker 4: was he chose to have a conversation and he chose

750
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,840
Speaker 4: to listen as opposed to coming in and breaking hate

751
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 4: and you know, just like not accepting their points of view.

752
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 4: You know. He the thing he said was it's it's

753
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,399
Speaker 4: okay to have a difference of opinion, you know, as

754
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 4: long as you can create that conversation and start And

755
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,839
Speaker 4: by creating that conversation, you can start to listen, and

756
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 4: you can start to kind of create a common ground

757
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 4: and that will close the gap. And by doing that

758
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 4: and by listening as opposed to like forcing, he befriended

759
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,800
Speaker 4: members of the KKK and later they end up leaving.

760
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:02,040
Speaker 4: I think he said, over one hundred and forty people left.

761
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 4: And I think it's all through listening, Yeah, having a

762
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 4: respect for each other.

763
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 3: Yeah.

764
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 1: And I think that the other thing that you said

765
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,240
Speaker 1: was when you were talking about the kindness and acts

766
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 1: of kindness aren't only for the other people, it's for

767
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: you too.

768
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 4: Yeah. I think one of the hardest people to be

769
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:24,360
Speaker 4: kind to with ourselves and I know that is for me,

770
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:26,839
Speaker 4: and you know, and I think until you can start

771
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,759
Speaker 4: being kind to yourself, then it's harder to be kind

772
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 4: to others. And so, you know, it says Journey that

773
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 4: we have to go on to kind of be a

774
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 4: piece with ourselves and listen to ourselves and what we

775
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:41,359
Speaker 4: need every day, and that's a choice that we can

776
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,759
Speaker 4: make and how we show up every day that can

777
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:46,680
Speaker 4: be the difference in your life, but also in the

778
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:47,720
Speaker 4: life of another person.

779
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

780
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 1: Okay, and Stephen, what what do you hope people are

781
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:53,520
Speaker 1: going to take away from your documentary?

782
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:56,239
