1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,200 Speaker 1: It's CAMF I Am six forty and you're listening to 2 00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:07,840 Speaker 1: the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Dodger 3 00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 1: game coming up today at six o'clock. They won last 4 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,200 Speaker 1: night ten to five, but it was a little panicky 5 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: in the eighth and ninth innings. You know, it looks 6 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: like the bullpen was gonna come out and blow that game, 7 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:23,279 Speaker 1: which would have been a huge letdown for Los Angeles. 8 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 1: Thank god they won ten to five last night. Hopefully 9 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 1: I'm not spoiling it for you. Maybe you recorded it 10 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: and you're gonna watch it today. Sorry, And tonight's the 11 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 1: second game. If they beat the Red tonight, the Dodgers 12 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 1: beat the Red tonight, they will win the wild Card 13 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: and go on to the National League Divisional Series. So 14 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 1: there you go. Alex Stone is with us. Alex, I 15 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 1: know the government has been shut down. How has that 16 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,239 Speaker 1: affected your life, sir? Not at all, not at all. 17 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: Back to you. Well, look, if it doesn't affect it 18 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: doesn't affect anybody I know. 19 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 2: No, I mean, if you work for the federal government 20 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 2: shut themselves down. 21 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 1: Well, and they just got paid today. 22 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 2: I believe it's when they got their direct deposit from 23 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 2: the pay period ending yesterday, So in two weeks, if 24 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 2: their paycheck doesn't go in, well then that's going to 25 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 2: be a problem. But as of right now, it's Yeah, 26 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 2: it doesn't seem like that there's at least in the 27 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 2: LA area. If we lived in Washington, totally different ballgame. 28 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 2: But but here, sure federal workers are impacted, but who's impacted? 29 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,039 Speaker 1: Like Social Security is still going to be delivered, We're 30 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,039 Speaker 1: still going to get the mail. Banks are open. I 31 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: don't think anything's really closed parts. Maybe I don't know. Yeah, 32 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:33,479 Speaker 1: I mean there are some officers here and there. 33 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,400 Speaker 2: But the thing that if this goes on long enough, 34 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 2: then what we've seen historically is the airports would begin 35 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 2: to see some impacts. Not today and probably not the 36 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:45,960 Speaker 2: next couple of days. But the problem being if the 37 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 2: TSA officers who don't get paid a whole lot that 38 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 2: they probably don't. 39 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: They also don't do a whole lot. I mean they don't. 40 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 2: Most of them probably have a lot of savings and 41 00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 2: they're they're going paycheck to paycheck and if they around 42 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 2: to October sixteenth, is the next pay period for federal 43 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 2: workers and they don't get paid, we expect that then 44 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 2: it's going to be a lot of sick calls and 45 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 2: people bailing out and saying, you know what, I'm going 46 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 2: to a different job. Sam at the FAA with air 47 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 2: Traffic Control that we've seen that before. The TSA is 48 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 2: saying today fifty eight thousand of its sixty one thousand 49 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 2: workers are considered to be essential. They're being told, you 50 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 2: have a job. You're not getting paid, but you have 51 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 2: a job. You must report into work. It is not optional. 52 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 2: But as it drags on, that's going to be a 53 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 2: problem if people can't pay their bills. And this Johnny 54 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 2: Jones said that he's a TSA officer. He says, you 55 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 2: can only do this for so long. They can do 56 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 2: it for a couple of weeks, but then they know 57 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 2: that the people are going to be, you know, I'm 58 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 2: out of here, and they're not going to be showing 59 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 2: up for work. 60 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 3: The childcare does not take IOUs, Gasoline does not take IOUs. 61 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 3: Your house payments do not take IOUs. And sometimes it 62 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 3: becomes very difficult to maintain focused on the mission whenever 63 00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 3: you're trying to figure out how you're going to get 64 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 3: to it from work and. 65 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 2: Tim that's the thing. In twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen, that shutdown. 66 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 2: That one on for thirty five days, the longest in history, 67 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 2: and TSA officers it only took them about a week 68 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 2: two weeks to begin calling out sick and others. They went, 69 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 2: you know, this is still going I got to go 70 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 2: find another job, and they bailed out after it became 71 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 2: clear it wasn't going to be fixed right away. That 72 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 2: led to long lines at security checkpoints that turned into 73 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 2: a mess. Then air traffic controllers began calling out sick 74 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 2: at the big air traffic control centers. That then created 75 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 2: ground stops, and at about thirty thirty five days into it, 76 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 2: they ended up grounding flights in New York and Florida, 77 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 2: and that personally impacted President Trump at the time, and 78 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 2: he then orchestrated to make sure that it got over 79 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 2: pretty quickly and got Republicans to get on board with 80 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 2: a deal at that point because that was impacting obviously 81 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 2: the East coast, and the shutdown ended very quickly. So 82 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 2: air traffic controllers got the credit for ending that one 83 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 2: and putting pressure on the government and on the White 84 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 2: House to get that one over with. But this we'll see, 85 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, Democrats seem to be showing some 86 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 2: cracks today, but the earliest they could come to a 87 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 2: deal now would be Friday, when they all come back together. 88 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 2: This woman was flying today and she said she didn't 89 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 2: like any of it. If the TSA and FAA workers 90 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 2: aren't happy, that it's not going to lead to good 91 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 2: things here in the next couple of weeks. 92 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 4: You can only ask people to do so much genuinely, 93 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 4: even if a service is very important. People are only 94 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 4: going to do things out of the goodness of their 95 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 4: heart for so long. And I'm you know, genuinely worried 96 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 4: about what's going to happen in the future. When air 97 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 4: traffic controllers decide like, no, I can't do this anymore, 98 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 4: when you know, even the TSA agents decide like, hey, 99 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 4: I need to be paid. So yeah, I am pretty 100 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 4: worried about like flying in and out for now. 101 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 2: And this guy is flying today too. He has a 102 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 2: message for lawmakers. He says, get this over with. 103 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: Move on. At the lowest level. We know what to do, 104 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: We know our job. We do our job every day. 105 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: Please do your job. 106 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 2: So you go to LAX, you go to Burbank or 107 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 2: Ontario or John Wayne. Today everything's going to be normal. 108 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 2: But as this drags on. We go another week or two, 109 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 2: you could start to see longer lines than other problems. 110 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: But because now it's all right, you know they when 111 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: they said the guy said on your audio there, childcare 112 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: doesn't take IOUs, gas station doesn't take IOUs. I got 113 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: a pen and a piece of paper. Can you rattle 114 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: me off some companies or people that take IOUs? Here's 115 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: an iou you just you give me your seriousness. 116 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 2: If KFI came to you and said, you know what, 117 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 2: we're not going to pay you for the next month 118 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 2: and a half, would you keep doing your show. 119 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: As long as I could get the money later on? 120 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: You know, when they went back into business, will bye 121 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: by law? I will get paid back to them. 122 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 2: But it's living day to day as somebody who's making 123 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 2: what a TSA officer is, right, but it. 124 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 1: Bucks an hour, twenty bucks an hour. Oh no, they're 125 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: living paycheck to pat. I think a lot of people are. 126 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: But I remember the nineteen ninety five shutdown, But that 127 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: seems to affect that a lot of people remember everything 128 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: was closed. They put ropes around monuments in Washington to 129 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 1: scare the hell out of everybody. All the parks were closed, 130 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: and that was a big deal. But now I think 131 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: we're so used to the shutdowns that nobody really cares. 132 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 1: You know, there was a I don't remember when cable 133 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: station I was watching, they were asking people in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Hey, 134 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 1: what do you think about the shutdown? And the ten 135 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: people they interviewed, not one person even knew it was 136 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: going on. Yeah, this one. 137 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 2: Doesn't seem to I feel like in even more recent ones, 138 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 2: and it's been this big clock ticking down everybody's will 139 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 2: they won't day and to make a deal at the 140 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 2: last minute, and this one was kind of like, well, 141 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 2: you know, it's midnight now everything's shut down. 142 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: I just looked it up. 143 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,359 Speaker 2: The average TSA officer pay twenty two dollars and fifty 144 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 2: six cents per hour. 145 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 1: You know, I was at one point I was living 146 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 1: in Oregon and I was flying down here to work 147 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: on KFI when I was doing a weekend show, and 148 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: I was staying at the lax Hilton right out there 149 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: near the airport. Sure, and I saw this big, huge 150 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: graduation going on down in the courtyard, and so I 151 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: went down. I was getting a coffee and a donut 152 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: or something in the lobby, and I walked over to 153 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: see the graduation and there's probably about three hundred family 154 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: members there and there were maybe like thirty or forty 155 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: graduates and they were going to get there at diploma 156 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 1: and graduate and then parents were taking pictures and everything. 157 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: And I said to the guy, I said, hey, is 158 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: this a UCLA? Is this USC is a local high 159 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: school or college? And he said, no, no, these are people 160 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: who are graduating TSA school. Wow. And I'm like, whoa 161 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: we wait. So that guy up there was fifty five, 162 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: his parents are here watching him graduate TSA school. 163 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 2: I mean they got an academy. They're coming out of that. 164 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 2: By the way, that Lax children is massive. You ever 165 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 2: get lost place? 166 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and every tower looks the same, so you have 167 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: no idea what. 168 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 2: You around it wide around? Oh yeah, that bury outs 169 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 2: the same way. Yeah exactly.

Do you remember Marge Shot? Sure? 432 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 8: Yeah, they talked about her on Saturday Night that she's 433 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 8: sort of a forgotten figure in Major League baseball. 434 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,360 Speaker 1: And we were thrown out of baseball. Thro were out 435 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 1: of baseball. Little racist Nazi member of Billia had her 436 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: house on a life, didn't like Jewish people, didn't like 437 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 1: black people. 438 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 8: Other than that, relatively charming, Okay. 439 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of other than that, though, I mean 440 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 1: than that. 441 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 8: The Reds have not won a World Series since she 442 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,119 Speaker 8: owned the team heils back in nineteen ninety. Wow, I 443 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,199 Speaker 8: was talking about the only Reds hat. I was going 444 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 8: to wear a Reds hat to trol some people around 445 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 8: here just for fun. And the only one I have 446 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 8: is an old Reds cap autographed by Mark shott oh exce, 447 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 8: and I don't think I should be flaunting it. 448 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 1: She was an odd bird. I mean, she was a 449 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:35,360 Speaker 1: real spark plug. I mean, she didn't take asked from anybody. 450 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,239 Speaker 1: Why this is what I talked about on Saturday night 451 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,679 Speaker 1: last weekend. Why hasn't there been an HBO bio picture. 452 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 1: There should be, Absolutely that is a role of a lifetime. Yeah, 453 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: but I think the hatred of Jews and pro Nazi probably, 454 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 1: you know, terrible person, great for a character, really decent frigat. 455 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 1: But her problem is not only did she have Nazi memorabilia, 456 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 1: she when people went to her house for dinner. It 457 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 1: was on display, it wasn't in a back room. Yeah, 458 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: this was like, oh, we inherited this through the black market. 459 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 1: It's something we keep but you don't want to know. 460 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 1: This is like here's our fine china and here's something 461 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: Hitler war, right exactly. Yeah, and people were a little 462 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 1: turned off by that. Yeah, it didn't sit well since 463 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: Anti he's a very Jewish town. You know, that's where 464 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: reform Judaism was born. I didn't know that. 465 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a big, big Jewish city, really very important 466 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 8: in American Jewish history. 467 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: I did not know this, all right. So I saw 468 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: the groundbreaking at the convention Center today and I learned 469 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: something today. I think I heard it from you as well. 470 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: Two point seven billion dollars for the convention center is 471 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: going to be six billion. 472 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 8: Well, you know, when you finance something, you often pay 473 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 8: more than what the asking price was, and this city 474 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 8: is not paying cash for this massive project. So they're 475 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 8: financing it, and they're financing it over the course of 476 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 8: thirty years. So what we're hearing is this very strange 477 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 8: optimism from city leaders, particularly Mayor Bass and the members 478 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,439 Speaker 8: of city Council who voted to go forward with this 479 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 8: because they know the city's financial condition. They know that 480 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 8: they're strapped sure, and they just went through this very 481 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 8: difficult budget process where they thought they were going to 482 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 8: be laying off sixteen hundred workers. They were able to 483 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 8: save all those jobs, but only by rearranging the proverbial 484 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 8: decks on the Titanic, because some people who used to 485 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 8: work in one department are now working in another department. 486 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 8: By the time it gets around to the next fiscal year, 487 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 8: when they start crafting the next budget next spring, they're 488 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 8: still going to be in financial trouble. And these city workers, 489 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 8: I don't know how they're safe because the revenue situation 490 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:40,479 Speaker 8: is not improving in Los Angeles, and now with the 491 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 8: financing of this massive project, they've added a significant amount 492 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 8: of debt imediately. We're talking anywhere between like eighty million 493 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 8: two hundred million a year wow for thirty years. 494 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: And will the convention center bring that kind of revenue 495 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: in to pay for itself. 496 00:22:56,320 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 8: The economic forecast suggest that it will offset at least 497 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 8: some of that that There will be people coming in 498 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 8: to visit, they'll spend money, you'll collect some taxes that way. 499 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 8: It will create jobs, you'll get some taxes that way, 500 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 8: it will create development. You'll get some taxes that way, 501 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 8: hotel taxes, those sorts of things. But it's not going 502 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 8: to be open immediately. We've got the next few years 503 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 8: to deal with. They won't even finish the first phase 504 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 8: until before the Olympics start in twenty twenty eight, and 505 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 8: then they'll start another phase and they'll have to cancel 506 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 8: some previously scheduled conventions. They're up against a couple of 507 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 8: situations because this is going to be a construction site, 508 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 8: and if they don't get this thing finished before those 509 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 8: Olympic events that are slated there, like table tennis, run 510 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 8: and some of the karate stuff, they have to move those. 511 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 8: Forget about the conventions. You've got the whole world watching 512 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,399 Speaker 8: the Olympics, and then they have to move this. But 513 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 8: the point of maybe sacrificing some revenue now is because 514 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 8: they think they will be more competitive for bigger conventions 515 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 8: down the road. The argument has been we're losing out 516 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,199 Speaker 8: to Talsa Force because our convention center sucks. No what 517 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 8: he says that the area around downtown LA and the 518 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 8: Coastal Center is really the challenge. 519 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: But I say, Michael Monks is with it. Michael Monks 520 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: every Saturday seven to nine pm right here on KFI. 521 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: I saw some renderings of this new convention Center. It 522 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 1: looks beautiful. 523 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 8: It's gonna be nice, and hopefully it is, because that's 524 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 8: a pretty pretty price tag. But I brought some sound 525 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 8: from Mayor Bass in the day's okay, but before we 526 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 8: get to the sound I heard. But I want to 527 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 8: play this sound. Okay, but before we get to the 528 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,120 Speaker 8: sound before, please you stand at he's leaving there, he goes. 529 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 8: I heard that Current those gold shovels that they were 530 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 8: using for the you know, the first dig down there 531 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 8: at the convention Center. I heard somebody took one and 532 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 8: knocked Current Price out with one. 533 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 1: Is that true? 534 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 8: You have some of the facts correct. Others seem to 535 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 8: have come out of left field, which is appropriate on 536 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 8: a baseball day like this. So Councilman Current Price is 537 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 8: at this event. His district runs up against Downtown LA, 538 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 8: out of South LA. He fell down, Oh he did. 539 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 8: He didn't just fall I mean he had a meta situation. 540 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 8: Oh I didn't know, have to be tended to. Mayor Bass, 541 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 8: who's a former nurse, also helped him out a bit, 542 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 8: and he was placed in a wheelchair, taken over to 543 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 8: an ambulance and taken from the scene. So his office 544 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 8: came out later and said that he was dehydrated. 545 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:14,919 Speaker 1: They always say that. 546 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 8: So he's got the weight of being a city councilman 547 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 8: in a challenge city like Los Angeles. But he is 548 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 8: also under indictment on some charges of public corruption, and 549 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 8: he's supposed to appear in court again in early November 550 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,879 Speaker 8: on those charges. So a lot going on in his life. 551 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 1: How about passing out in downtown LA and the next 552 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: thing you see is Mayor Bass's face an inch away 553 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 1: from yours. Honestly, if you need mouth to mouth, if 554 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: it's Karen Bass, and it's better than nobody, that's right. 555 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: All right? Can you stay with us? Where do you 556 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 1: got to take off? No, let's stay. Let's talk about 557 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 1: those red Legs. I let's talk about the Reds, the Dodgers. 558 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 1: We have sound, there's gonna be sound, There's gonna be sound. 559 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 1: And then we have to talk about your Wednesday. You 560 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 1: always go out on Wednesday d dinner and you're going 561 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 1: to read to the Rio Soul. The real test is 562 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: that Rio Soul. It is okay, Monks is great. He's 563 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: on every Saturday seven and nine pm live every Saturday 564 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 1: seven to nine pm, and he owns that time slot. 565 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: He's number one talk show in Los Angeles on Saturday 566 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 1: from seven to nine pm. 567 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 7: You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI 568 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 7: AM six forty. 569 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 1: Michael Monks is with us without naming the supermarket because 570 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: I don't want to get in trouble. We did a 571 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: whole run yesterday on dogs are everywhere. They're in restaurants, 572 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: you go to, you know, anywhere you go to, you 573 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 1: go to the airport, you go to a you know, bookstore. 574 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 1: There's dogs everywhere, everywhere. Dogs. And you say, in your 575 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 1: supermarket you've seen dogs in the supermarket. Dogs in the supermarket. 576 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 8: Yeah, absolutely, And at least one occasion one of the 577 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 8: dogs has taken a dump and then one of the 578 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,200 Speaker 8: workers has to come on and said, very snarkily, but 579 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 8: thinks a lot for whoever brought your dog in is 580 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 8: a clean up. And I only you're not supposed to 581 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 8: have your dogs, but they are always dogs that down town. 582 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 8: You can't say it, yeah supermarket, Yeah, you know, downtown's 583 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 8: a mess anyway, So I guess the dogs can often 584 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 8: be cleaner than some of the other riff raft that 585 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 8: wander in there. 586 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 1: But you know we're supposed to be getting an Arawan 587 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 1: down there, can you? 588 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 3: Oh? 589 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 12: Really? 590 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 6: No? 591 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: I mean the dogs in Arawan. I mean there's more 592 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,360 Speaker 1: dogs than people in Arawan. But I agree with you. 593 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 1: I love dogs. I know you love dogs, but let's 594 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 1: keep the dogs out of the super I'm. 595 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 8: Comfortable telling you I don't love dogs, and I know 596 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 8: that's an unpopular opinion. I don't hate them, but I 597 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 8: don't need to petation. I don't need it to lick me. 598 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 8: I don't need to come near me. 599 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 1: I'm a cat guy. Okay, all right, I get that. 600 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 1: Do you have a cat? I do? What's the name 601 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 1: my little free holdes? Okay, all right, that's really cool. 602 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about the audio you're gonna play. 603 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 8: Okay, So we're at the Convention Center groundbreaking today in 604 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 8: downtown Los Angeles. The reason I want to play this 605 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 8: this is otherwise run of the mill audio from the 606 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 8: mayor who's at a groundbreaking, but I'm going to break 607 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 8: it down for you when she's finished. 608 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: Here's what marre Bas said today, take. 609 00:27:56,240 --> 00:28:00,040 Speaker 11: Bold actions to assure that we can deliver in a 610 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 11: way that is of course fiscally responsible. That includes implementing 611 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 11: cost saving measures and streamlining processes which will be key 612 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 11: to ensure that the convention center has an on time completion. 613 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 11: So while today is an important step in our city's future, 614 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 11: we take this step knowing that there is more important 615 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 11: work to do. But I know that Angelino's are more 616 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,639 Speaker 11: than ready to meet the moment. 617 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: Is that right? More than Mandy ready to meet the moment. 618 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 11: Thank you everyone, And I would be so excited to 619 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 11: come back here in a few years when the world 620 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 11: comes all of the conventions that I know will be 621 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 11: coming to our city. 622 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 8: Okay, so a couple of things there jazzing up the 623 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 8: crowd a bit like, Hey, this thing is coming. Did 624 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 8: you notice I know Angelino's are ready to meet the moment. 625 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 8: That's something that you say after a fire, sure, after 626 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 8: flood washes out of neighborhood, something like, we can do 627 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 8: this together. Imagine standing at the ground breaking of a 628 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 8: development so large that it's expected to cost about two 629 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 8: point six billion dollars. In saying we can do this together. 630 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 8: We can do that. It just expresses to me the 631 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 8: level of uncertainty that supporters of this project even within 632 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 8: City Hall have in. 633 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 1: Your beast, guess because you cover the LA city more 634 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: than anybody on TV or radio, and I think you're 635 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,479 Speaker 1: the only guy that really covers it, just a few 636 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: of us. How close is the city of Los Angeles 637 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: to total collapse. It was already on the verge of 638 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,239 Speaker 1: disaster when they were creating the fiscal year budget that 639 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 1: we are currently living under. Fiscal years start July first 640 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: run through June thirtieth. When they were making this year's. 641 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 8: Budget back in the spring, it was scary, and that 642 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 8: was after the previous scary year where they had to 643 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,719 Speaker 8: scale back mini services that are important people, animal services, 644 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 8: street lighting, street cleaning, those sorts of things. Next year, 645 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 8: with this added expense and no real prospects for additional 646 00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 8: revenue to be coming in, I don't see how it 647 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 8: could it's better. 648 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: This is why it has to be mismanagement. We have 649 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: the wealthiest people in the United States who live here. 650 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: We have the entertainment industry that's centered here, located here. 651 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 1: We have the computer world that's up in northern California, 652 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 1: a lot of it down here as well. We have 653 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 1: the most beautiful coastline. We have the most expensive houses 654 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: that are paying astronomical amounts in property taxes and yet 655 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 1: we're broke. 656 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:27,959 Speaker 8: Think about how much stuff costs. Not when you are 657 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 8: walking past a dog at Raufs who's taken a dump 658 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 8: an aisle eight right, think about how much the city 659 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 8: spends on stuff. Take, for example, Maribas's signature homeless program. 660 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 8: When you hear that it might cost upwards of one 661 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 8: hundred and twenty thousand dollars to house somebody for a year, 662 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 8: that's significant, and that project alone is not moving as 663 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 8: quickly as even she had anticipated. So when you have 664 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 8: the same characters talking about how we're going to be 665 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 8: fiscally responsible, we're going to get stuff done on time, 666 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 8: I think you can respect people's eye rol sure and cynicism. 667 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 1: Well, you know they've spent it's going to be one 668 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,959 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty to one hundred and fifty billion dollars 669 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: for that high speed rail. If you took the high 670 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 1: speed rail and you never you know, you never started it, 671 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: you never took all that money, all the one hundred 672 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: and thirty to one hundred and fifty billion dollars, and 673 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: you just gave it out to homeless people. You could 674 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 1: give every homeless person seven hundred and twenty thousand dollars 675 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,719 Speaker 1: and think about that project in particular. I mean, I 676 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,959 Speaker 1: like rail, I like writing, I do the public transportation. 677 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 1: It's not scary or filthy. 678 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 8: I love the idea of a high speed rail line 679 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 8: between Los Angeles and San Francisco. 680 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: Be great. 681 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 8: Sure, because this project has been so poorly managed. Think 682 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 8: about what that's done to the psyche For folks the 683 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 8: next time they're asked to consider, oh, I know, such 684 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 8: a watch it's over. So it's not just the financial 685 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 8: damage that they've done immediately. It's going to raise questions 686 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 8: anytime such a project is talked about. It really not 687 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 8: even just rail, but projects like this, because if we 688 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 8: have to do so much permitting, we have talking about 689 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 8: so many questions and public hearings and all of that. 690 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 8: It's so California made its own rail project more difficult 691 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 8: to build because of their own policies. 692 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: And the people who live in northern California don't like 693 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: Southern California no right, and they don't like us, and 694 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 1: vice versa. I love San Francisco. I think it's one 695 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 1: of the most beautiful Cities've ever been to my life. 696 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 1: I've not been there since nineteen eighty seven. Okay, some 697 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 1: things have changed, Yeah, yeah, a little bit. Yeah, But 698 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, why have a high speed rail over 699 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: two cities that hate each other? 700 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 8: Is that anecdotal or is that accurate? I think it's 701 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 8: pretty accurate that I think it is. I think that 702 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 8: that you would you would like Krozier. When's the last 703 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 8: time you've been to San Francisco? This is not a 704 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 8: scientific poe by the way, ten years ago, ten years 705 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 8: what about you, Tony? When's the last time you went 706 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 8: to San Francisco? 707 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: Yeah? Never, never, You've never been there. How old are 708 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 1: you me? Fifty forty nine? Belly, when's the last time 709 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: you went to San Francisco? 710 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 9: Like maybe four years ago? 711 00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: Four years ago? Wow? What about you? Monks? 712 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 8: I still lived back in the southern Midwest, but. 713 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: Made a visit in twenty fourteen. There you go. Nobody goes, 714 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 1: you know, And the only way Northern Californians come down 715 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: here to visit is when they're forty nine ers playing. 716 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 8: They swampy so far and they not get out. I mean, 717 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:21,479 Speaker 8: there's actual statistics out very recently. I think the La 718 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 8: Times at a big piece on tourism in Los Angeles 719 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 8: and how way down poorly we're doing right now. And 720 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 8: a lot of that has to do with our own 721 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 8: decision making. We have decided that the city can look 722 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 8: like this. San Francisco seems to be turning a corner. 723 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 8: They that's awoken a bit up there about what is 724 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 8: acceptable on the streets. Los Angeles has not had that 725 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 8: epiphany yet. I can tell you. I watch every government meeting, 726 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 8: I watch every government press conference. I'm there, I'm talking 727 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 8: to these folks. The epiphany has not happened in any 728 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 8: meaningful way to where they will say collectively that this 729 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 8: is not acceptable. 730 00:33:56,680 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 1: Okay. And also, if you just watch the news, and 731 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: if you're watching cable news, you assume that the city 732 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: of LA has burned to the ground. 733 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 8: Well, you know, there are certain ideologies on some cable 734 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 8: outlets that love to beat on any state that's run 735 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 8: by Democrats, and the same is true to maybe a 736 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 8: lesser extent, on other networks. Let's make fun of our 737 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 8: political opponents by based on the outcomes, whether it be 738 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 8: education or economic. So the problem when you see Fox News, 739 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 8: for example, really lay it on thick on Los Angeles 740 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 8: and California in general. La and California in general don't 741 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 8: really do a whole lot to counter that image. 742 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 1: They need to. 743 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 8: Those videos are not artificial intelligence. You can come down 744 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 8: to my neighborhood today and send a text message to 745 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 8: Jesse Waters this afternoon and he will have plenty for 746 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 8: his show tonight. 747 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,320 Speaker 1: Buddy, what's the dinner tonight? Cafe? 748 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 8: I'm going to try that I told you about last 749 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 8: week because I usually i'd been doing Panda okay, you know, 750 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 8: on Wednesday nights, but I'm locked in for the rest 751 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:59,320 Speaker 8: of the year. A little exercise, a little more creative exploits, okay, 752 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 8: and so, uh, you know, trying to mix things up. 753 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 8: And I found this little Brazilian barbecue place on Sunset 754 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 8: in Hollywood, across from the Target and the home depot 755 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 8: there right off the one oh one.

Okay, 761 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 8: the first time I went in there, the menu is 762 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 8: very confusing. 763 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 11: Uh. 764 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 8: They were surprised. A customer walked in but the food 765 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 8: was not expensive and it was good.
