But first joining us in studio, 47 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 2: the one and only Michael Monks to update us on 48 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 2: the news of the day. 49 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 3: Tragic story here. 50 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 2: And I guess I'm not terribly surprised here that murder 51 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 2: is the case. 52 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 7: It's a terrible, terrible double tragedy for this family, the Levees, 53 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 7: a family that lost their home in the Palisades fire 54 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 7: and raising eighteen year old Bron Levee very well. This 55 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 7: kid was a senior at Loyola High School, tennis star 56 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 7: was set to go to the University of Virginia. Not 57 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 7: an easy school to get into. No, and obviously a 58 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 7: very good kid. Happened to be walking around Manhattan Beach 59 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 7: on the night of May fourth. This family lost their 60 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 7: home and relocated to Manhattan Beach, and just months later, 61 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 7: an alleged drunk driver coming down the street barrels into 62 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 7: Bron Levey and kills him. Now we've known this story 63 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 7: for a while, it's a tragedy one that we've reported 64 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 7: on intensively. But today the La County DA's office confirmed 65 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 7: the charges against that driver, Janaia raschamp Belt, and one 66 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 7: of those charges includes murder. 67 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, can we go back to that specifically, because I think, 68 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 2: you know, I know that the DA is now a 69 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: lot tougher on crime than maybe prior administrations. I know 70 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 2: that you maybe did you live did you live here 71 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 2: before Hawkman was the DA, So you recall, things are 72 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 2: moving very quickly now in the world of the Los 73 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 2: Angeles DAH, as far as as far as charging, as 74 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 2: far as making these grand statements about what we think 75 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 2: about crime. 76 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 3: They think that murder can stick. 77 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 7: He is convinced that they will be able to get 78 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 7: a unanimous verdict. He said as much on the charges 79 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 7: that they presented today. Not only did they present these charges, 80 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 7: but bron Levy's mother was also on hand. And to 81 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 7: hear a mother who's lost their child speak on any 82 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 7: occasion is very difficult because it makes the situation so vivid. 83 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 7: You know, we in the news business can throw a 84 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 7: headline out all day every day about a crash on 85 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 7: the five to people dead. We know as humans that 86 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 7: that's a terrible, terrible thing. And although we just pass 87 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 7: by it as a piece of news, there are families 88 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 7: somewhere ye really dealing with the consequences. Yeah, it is 89 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 7: rare that in these moments of deep grief that you 90 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 7: get open honesty from the families because they're inaccessible. I mean, 91 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 7: you don't want to come out and talk to the 92 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 7: media about what you're feeling right now. You've never been 93 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 7: more vulnerable or sad in your life. 94 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 2: And as somebody who has worked in news for a 95 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 2: long time, you know how weird it feels to go 96 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 2: knock on the door and have to try to say, hey, 97 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 2: will you I know you've asked for privacy at this point, 98 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 2: but will you share? But I think there are some 99 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 2: people who are family members of victims who, at least 100 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 2: in this situation, it sounds like it's a way to 101 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 2: honor her son, to see justice serve. I know a 102 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 2: lot of people process the grief that way. That's exactly 103 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 2: what they're doing. They've started the foundation and their sons 104 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 2: and what they've also done in not just today, but 105 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 2: what they reiterated today alongside a state lawmaker and a 106 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 2: city council member and the La County DA is a 107 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 2: call for tougher penalties for people who are convicted of DUI. 108 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 2: Here is part of what Jennifer Levey said today about 109 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 2: our son's loss. 110 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 8: The pain we feel is indescribable. Our family has been shattered, 111 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 8: ripped apart, and left to pick up the pieces and 112 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 8: keep on living without Braun, who we all loved with 113 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:38,919 Speaker 8: every cell in our body. We are no longer the 114 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 8: people we once were. We are profoundly changed by the 115 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 8: depth of our grief. California's current DUI laws are broken 116 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 8: and weak and fail to protect families like ours, and 117 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 8: it's devastating. There have been previous bills and laws, but 118 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 8: they have been gutted and a mess, and it's inexcusable. 119 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 8: I will not stand for that status quo. We can 120 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 8: stop these tragedies. We have the solutions. My plea is 121 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 8: to Governor Gavin Newsom and California lawmakers. This is not 122 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 8: a political issue. This is a human issue. And I 123 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 8: guarantee if any of you had to identify the body 124 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 8: of your child or loved one in the manner that 125 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 8: my husband and I did a few months ago, you 126 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 8: would not be silent. 127 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 3: Wow. 128 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 8: The feeling, the sight, the smell of identifying our son's 129 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 8: body will never leave my mind, body, or soul. So 130 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:47,919 Speaker 8: I will not be silent. 131 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 7: That's the part that really gets you, because again, as humans, 132 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 7: when you hear that somebody was killed. You don't know them, 133 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 7: but you feel that that's a tragedy. It's sad, but 134 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 7: you can move on with your day. But when you 135 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 7: really think about a teenage boy with his whole life 136 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,559 Speaker 7: ahead of him, obviously a good student, good athlete, headed 137 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 7: off to big things, struck down like this, and not 138 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 7: only do you get that call as parents that your 139 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 7: child has been killed, but can you come down and 140 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 7: identify the body? 141 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 2: It's unthinkable, and then you know it's already unnatural to 142 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 2: bury your child, to have something that's so avoidable. And 143 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 2: I say that because this woman shouldn't have been behind 144 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 2: the wheel for so many reasons. I don't know what 145 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 2: her blood alcohol content was. I don't know what the 146 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 2: level was. I saw the photos of her. She's clearly 147 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 2: not a lightweight, and I think if you look at 148 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 2: her prior arrest she has she's driving on a suspended 149 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 2: license because of a prior DUI or. 150 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 7: That's important to note here because that's what they're calling 151 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 7: this woman. Jenia Belt was driving on a suspended license 152 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 7: from a previous DUI charge when this happened back in May, 153 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 7: So State Senator Bob Archiletta, the Democh from Pico Rivera 154 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 7: was also at this news conference. He has filed legislation 155 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 7: that he said would bring tougher penalties on folks who 156 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 7: are convicted of DUI, and it would require that there 157 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 7: be a breathalyzer or ignition interlock device test before a 158 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 7: vehicle can start if. 159 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 3: You have had a DUI. I've had a die. 160 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 2: I was unaware that that wasn't the case. I mean, 161 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 2: I haven't done a lot of Darren Kavinoki calling in 162 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 2: my day, but I but I am surprised that that's 163 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 2: not something that they do in California. 164 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 7: There are laws about it involving multiple duys, but what 165 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 7: we heard today is that the judges are not always 166 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 7: enforcing that's art. That's according to La County DA Nathan Hawkman. Now, 167 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 7: by the way, Senator Archiletta earlier this excuse me this 168 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 7: time last year lost his granddaughter to an alleged drunk driver. 169 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 9: Wow. 170 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 2: That's tough out there, man, and especially a car culture. 171 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 2: You know, and you go to these cities outside of 172 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 2: LA where the traffic is not as bad, or you 173 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 2: go to off hours and there are people moving around, 174 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 2: but people versus cars, the car is always gonna win. 175 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 2: And especially when you add alcohol, you add high speed, 176 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: and the amount of roads that we have here. You know, 177 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 2: people don't take people don't take public transit, like in 178 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 2: New York and Chicago. They go out, they go drinking, 179 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 2: they get on the train, they go home. Los Angeles. 180 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 2: That it's not the case. It sounds like people are 181 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 2: just out here drinking and driving. And my heart goes 182 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 2: out to the family, and I think that you're right. 183 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 2: The feeling that as a newsperson or as somebody who 184 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 2: pays attention to the news is I know a lot 185 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 2: of the listeners do. It almost seems sometimes like it's 186 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 2: not real because you hear so much tragedy all the time. 187 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 9: You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI 188 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 9: AM six forty. 189 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 2: And when you listen to a victim's mom, a teenage 190 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 2: boys victim's mom, teenage boy is the victim, his mom 191 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 2: speaking about what happened here and about her son, and 192 00:09:56,040 --> 00:10:00,079 Speaker 2: the explaining to us in graphic detail the experience. It 193 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 2: just makes it so real, and it makes it so horrible, 194 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 2: and I'm curious to see what happens here. But no 195 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 2: amount of jail time finds whatever penalties are going to 196 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 2: bring bring broadback. No, she does face life in prison. Wow, 197 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 2: that's a tough story. Well, mister Monk's stick with us. 198 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 2: For the next block. We're going to talk about a 199 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 2: new rent cap. No more rent increases for Los Angeles. 200 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 7: Counts or a lot of units. The rent increases by 201 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 7: law will be very small. But there was a post 202 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 7: on X by a LA City counciloman that's getting a 203 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 7: lot of attention from real estate developers who think she's 204 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 7: talking in word salad. I'm going to have that tweet 205 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 7: for you to see if you can decipher it for. 206 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 2: Not word salad. I don't even eat regular salad. Michael Munk, 207 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 2: get the addressing ready. 208 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 3: So much more coming up. 209 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 2: It's Conway Show though I'm Andy Reesmeyer in for Tim 210 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:54,839 Speaker 2: Conway Junior. 211 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 3: It's k IF. I am six forty. 212 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 2: We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app joining me continually 213 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 2: in studio until I can release him from my grasp. 214 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 3: I hope you never do. Is Michael Monks got soft hands? Yeah, 215 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 3: I moisturize. 216 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 10: You know. 217 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 2: I do a lot of sitting behind a desk watching 218 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 2: a calidprompter roll up, you know, which is not backbreaking 219 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 2: work as they say. I wish sometimes I could stand, 220 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 2: especially like in the radio studio, you know, like because 221 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 2: like this is weird to me. I'm standing now, So 222 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 2: for all the people who are not watching, which is 223 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 2: everyone except for Michael Mount. Yeah, it's it's weird to 224 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 2: it's weird to be able to you know, you got 225 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 2: to move around stuff because you got to bring the energy. 226 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 2: But you're bringing the energy about this story. But rent 227 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 2: in Los Angeles the city, right, not necessarily the county here, 228 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,719 Speaker 2: it's just the city of LA They've got what they 229 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 2: call a rent Stabilization Unit RSO, and this applies to 230 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 2: about six hundred and fifty thousand apartments. And that is 231 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 2: to say that the property owners that operate these rental 232 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 2: units are only able to increase their rent by a 233 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 2: certain percentage as dictated by city hall. Now, it had 234 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 2: been a little more generous in the past, but some 235 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 2: of the members of city council thought that they needed 236 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 2: to get a little more aggressive on this. Originally they 237 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,599 Speaker 2: wanted to say there were no increases at all whatsoever, 238 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 2: only adjusted to the rate of inflation. Wish, if you 239 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 2: are a property owner, how are you keep in mind? 240 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 2: Probably owners have bills to pay too, right, and your 241 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 2: costs may be rising well, especially now, Yeah, absolutely are. 242 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,680 Speaker 7: Unless to replace a kitchen, if you have to lay 243 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 7: down new carpet, if you have to put in a 244 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 7: new window, all of that stuff costs money. And if 245 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 7: the product that you are selling in this case I 246 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,719 Speaker 7: rentally is not going up in price at all. 247 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 2: And everything is way more expensive than it was. Can 248 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 2: I tell you that when I was most of my 249 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 2: time in La up until about a year ago, I 250 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 2: was always the guy who was the renter, and I 251 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 2: was always like, Oh, these these landlords, these these guys 252 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 2: trying to rip us off of doing it. And now 253 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 2: I own a house and I wish, I just wish 254 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 2: I was read like, I want to go back to 255 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 2: that land, right, I didn't have to think about property 256 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 2: taxes and usage tax and homeowners' insurance and refinancing and 257 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 2: all these things that come with owning property that are 258 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 2: just truly like keep you up at night exactly. And look, 259 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 2: there are problems with property ownership rental property ownership. There 260 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 2: are larger companies that come in, They're not connected to 261 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 2: the tenants. They might not make the units safe, they 262 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 2: may not be responsive to concerns. There are you know, 263 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 2: venture capital firms that are private equity taking over some 264 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 2: of our residences, and those are worth keeping an eye on. 265 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 7: But there's also people whose entire net worth is connected 266 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 7: to the four family house that they have out in 267 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 7: the valley, right, and that's their entire retirement plan. Is 268 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 7: that they've worked their whole lives, but they have four 269 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 7: rental units somewhere out here. And now this comes along. 270 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 7: So this rental proposal, which ended up being that landlords 271 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 7: could increase the rent between one and four percent, depending 272 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 7: on inflation. And that's still not enough according to a 273 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 7: lot of real estate agents, a lot of property developers, 274 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 7: a lot of property they've basically been iced out of 275 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,719 Speaker 7: raising anything at all since COVID. So you're talking going 276 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 7: on six years here, and you think about how things 277 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 7: cost back in twenty twenty, twenty nineteen compared to where 278 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 7: they are. 279 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 3: Now, No doubt about it. It's exactly right. 280 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 7: And that's what they were saying, is you're basically putting 281 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 7: us out of business. No, keep in mind, this is 282 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 7: a city that the rent is comparatively higher than just 283 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 7: about anywhere else. 284 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 3: New York is higher. I think San Francisco is on 285 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 3: part of. 286 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 2: But astronomical compared to Indiana or exactly our home states 287 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 2: are much cheaper. 288 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 7: But there's a reason. There's always been a reason for that. 289 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 7: This is a very desirable place to live. There is 290 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 7: we're here, We're he's rocking and rolling, the weather's great, 291 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 7: So the prices are naturally going to be higher because 292 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 7: it is a more attractive place to live. 293 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 3: More people want to be here. I get it. I 294 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 3: left Indiana for the exact same reason. 295 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 7: But there's also a supply and demand effect, just like 296 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 7: with any other commodity. And there are mini reports that 297 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 7: suggest La doesn't have enough apartment units. If you would 298 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 7: build more apartments, you would have less they would cheaper. Yeah, 299 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 7: but the city doesn't make it easy to build, of course, 300 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 7: not so what the city council does. In my now 301 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 7: two full years of paying attention to them, what I 302 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 7: have noticed is they are big fans of treating symptoms 303 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 7: but not looking at the disease, which may be their 304 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 7: own policies. Now Mayor Bass has but that's not sexy. 305 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and this is an opportunity to say when I 306 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 2: want to get reelected. Look, I did allow there to 307 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 2: be a little bit of an increase but I'm sure that, like, 308 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 2: how is this How is the spin. 309 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 3: Coming from the Mayor's department. 310 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 7: It's not bad, It's what you would expect. Yeah, and 311 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 7: we're going to get to the spin right now. Because 312 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 7: Mayor Bass did sign this thing. They had a little 313 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 7: news conference last Friday. Councilman Isabelle Herado, who campaigned as 314 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 7: a tenants rights attorney, although she has also said she 315 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 7: was unemployed all last year because she was campaigning. So 316 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 7: I don't know what type of legal work she actually conducted, 317 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 7: but that's what she says her specialty as is tenants rights. 318 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 7: Maybe she ran a day Possibly she posted on X 319 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 7: after this thing was signed by the mayor and I'm 320 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 7: asking for I'm trying not to be condescending. Okay, I 321 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 7: have to cover these people, but I didn't understand what 322 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 7: this meant. I want you to decide, right, Yeah, here's. 323 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 3: I will take. Where'd you go to college? 324 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 2: I went to Santa Monica College for two years and 325 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 2: then I went to UCLA for about six months. 326 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 3: So and no, I didn't. I didn't. 327 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 2: I'm on television. It's all a lot, which I was 328 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 2: told you need a master for see. 329 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 7: I have a master's degree. And your father had an eye. 330 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 7: Here's what councilman Herado posted on Twitter. Evictions are a 331 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 7: modern vestige of imperialism and conquest. Mass displacement functions like 332 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 7: conquest itself, erasing people, culture and community dispossession turns residents 333 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 7: into tourists in their own hometowns, never able to return today. 334 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 7: Updating rent control and gapping the rent increase was a 335 00:16:55,800 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 7: huge win for Angelino's because housing stability is anti displacement policy. 336 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 7: What I felt like I was back at Santa Monica 337 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 7: College Bingo. That's exactly what I said earlier. We were 338 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,679 Speaker 7: on with Gary and Shannon talking about this issue, and 339 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 7: I thought, that is college coursework one hundred percent. 340 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 2: That's like, I need to reach a certain number of words, 341 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 2: So I'm going to put in as many as possible, 342 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 2: and I'm going to, by the way, use the Bingo 343 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 2: board of buzzwords that I see on Twitter or x 344 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 2: or whatever all day blue sky, and I'm assuming is 345 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 2: where they are now. But but it really does feel 346 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 2: like if you're trying to make a point to all 347 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 2: people and you talk like that, you're going to lose 348 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 2: eighty percent of everybody in the first five seconds. 349 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 7: You can look up that post on X and she 350 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,439 Speaker 7: got a lot of engagement, a lot from uh, like 351 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 7: if she ran ratio to like people literally ratio. There 352 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 7: was not a lot of support for the way that 353 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,880 Speaker 7: she characterized this. I mean you heard a lot from tenants. 354 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 7: I mean there are win It's very expensive here, Yeah, 355 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 7: there's no doubt about it, and wages may not be 356 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 7: keeping up with it. If you're spending more than thirty 357 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 7: or thirty three percent of your income on rent, I 358 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,640 Speaker 7: think that they call that house poor or something along 359 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,239 Speaker 7: those lines. I mean it's like you are spending too 360 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 7: much of your money on housing. It can only be 361 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 7: a thirty percent of your take home pay. Yeah, and many, 362 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 7: many people in Los Angeles are experiencing payments that are 363 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:18,439 Speaker 7: far more than that. 364 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 3: So, yeah, there are issues, But. 365 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 7: It seems that the biggest issue is how difficult it 366 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 7: is to build housing here. 367 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 2: And I think build housing. It's difficult not just because 368 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 2: of the policies. I understand, it's also difficult because people 369 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 2: who own single family homes in places like the Valley, 370 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 2: my neighborhood, they don't want large apartment buildings going up 371 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 2: on their streets because they probably correctly assume that that 372 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 2: will drive down the value of their homes. So it 373 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,880 Speaker 2: is a very complicated issue. And I think that there 374 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 2: are places in this city where you could see maybe 375 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 2: transit corridors or places where there are busier streets where 376 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 2: you could possibly put some buildings up for sure, well 377 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 2: very quickly before we have to go to the news. 378 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 2: There is a reference to that in the thread on 379 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 2: Councilman Herado's post. Somebody who is a housing activist in 380 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 2: support a building more talked about Senate Bill seventy nine, 381 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 2: which authorizes large cities like La to permit more quickly 382 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 2: big apartment buildings next to heavy transit, light rail, heavy rail, 383 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 2: and those bus lines like the Orange line of the 384 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 2: J line. These they got a lot of pushback to the 385 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 2: City of La went on the record against this thing. 386 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 2: Councilman Herado voted against, you know, the resolution that would 387 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,160 Speaker 2: have supported this. And so this user on x aster 388 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,680 Speaker 2: is SB seventy nine, which would build more housing. Is 389 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 2: it imperialism and conquest too. They're so caught up in 390 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,199 Speaker 2: the performance of the policy that they don't even have 391 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 2: the ability to get anything done. 392 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 7: Heroto's response was, it's a faint within a faint within 393 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,360 Speaker 7: a faint, but nuance is lost on the internet. 394 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 2: Oh my god, they just love sniffing their own Fuck. 395 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 2: I'm so sick of it. I think you could say 396 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 2: that a politically, just get stuff done. We give you 397 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 2: all this money, you have all this power. You're increasing 398 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 2: your ability to do things all the time. Can you 399 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,719 Speaker 2: just make it better for us? That would be okay. 400 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 2: I'd be okay given all of my money to the 401 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 2: government if they made things better. 402 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 3: I wouldn't be okay with. 403 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 2: Giving all of it, but I'd be okay with giving 404 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 2: as much as I do if I felt like there 405 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,880 Speaker 2: was some kind of, some kind of thing that. 406 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 3: We got out of it. 407 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,879 Speaker 7: This is the same city that told hotel operators and 408 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 7: restaurant operators concessioners at the airport you have to pay 409 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 7: your workers more, while at the same time admitting that 410 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 7: they don't have the funds to keep sixteen hundred people 411 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 7: on their own staff. 412 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 3: Ah Killing and Michael Monk, thank you so much for 413 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 3: joining us.

Now, how long does it 487 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 2: take for fish to stink? The first question I guess, 488 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 2: which is do live fish smell bad? 489 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:13,399 Speaker 4: Oh? Boy? 490 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 12: I think it depends on the fish going bad if 491 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 12: they're just left out in the sun just to like 492 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 12: rot away, or if you're refrigerating it and just leaving 493 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 12: it there and forgetting about it. So I think it 494 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 12: would take a lot shorter of a time for the 495 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,399 Speaker 12: fish to just go fishy and turn nasty if it 496 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 12: was just left out to its own devices.
