Modern 0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:20.760 day horse theft is grand theft, auto stealing cars. And 0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:22.000 that brings us to the word. 0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:23.160 Of the day. 0:03:23.760 --> 0:03:26.520 His words, the word of the day. 0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:30.560 You know, we always say when these guys get arrested, 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:34.519 we always call him out, and we always say thuggery, 0:03:35.040 --> 0:03:36.680 and we point our fingers and. 0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:39.280 We judge, judge, judge the rule breakers. You know what 0:03:39.360 --> 0:03:42.000 I'm saying, Matt, Yeah, thugery, skullduggery. 0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:46.480 But very rarely do we say, you know what, even 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:50.560 though we made claims of thuggery and skullduggery. This guy 0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:55.120 didn't do anything and apparently that's what happened with Pooka 0:03:55.160 --> 0:04:00.600 Nakua's brother, Samson Nakua remember the story from a few 0:04:02.800 --> 0:04:06.840 or something, okay, but he did not intend to jack 0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:13.000 that Lakers suv. According to the LA PD, who said 0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:15.840 the situation was are you ready. 0:04:15.600 --> 0:04:20.520 Matt misunderstanding giant misunderstanding. Yeah. 0:04:20.760 --> 0:04:26.320 Previously reported, Nikoua's brother Samson and his friend Trey rose 0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:32.160 Or which sounds like a troublemaker, were arrested in December 0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:36.440 last month taking a vehicle without the owner's consent, that 0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:41.000 is stealing, and they drove off in a due Terarrio's 0:04:41.360 --> 0:04:47.880 BMW without his permission, but the investigation says it was 0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:52.120 an honest mistake. There will be no charges. The quote 0:04:52.160 --> 0:04:57.960 that TMZ sports has is Samson Nakua who did slap 0:04:58.000 --> 0:05:00.120 the s out of that dude in the UFL that 0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:05.640 fan Samson nicole I mean, DK Metcalf has nothing on 0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:12.840 Samson Nicula's slapping ability. Samson Nicoula believed the vehicle was 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:16.880 his brother's jumand lid the door open. Sus my brother 0:05:17.040 --> 0:05:21.000 knows everything is okay. Was his brother Poka Nakula's car, 0:05:21.680 --> 0:05:25.799 and it's the exact same model and vehicle, but only 0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:30.280 a year or two older and the same color. That's 0:05:30.320 --> 0:05:32.480 what the LA excuse me, not the L A p D. 0:05:32.600 --> 0:05:35.640 The LA sheriffs told tm Z. 0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:40.800 There is the the small detail of the keys and 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:46.360 how to get it started. Well, you're gonna have to ask. 0:05:48.240 --> 0:05:51.720 It's not like one whatever g wagon or whatever the 0:05:51.760 --> 0:05:52.320 hell it was. 0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:57.080 As well, here's the here's the other, here's the other part. 0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:59.279 He doesn't want to prosecute TERRYO. 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.120 Okay, well there you go, right. 0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:07.159 And Pooka Nakua is about to pop off and have 0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:11.280 opportunity to become like the Super Bowl MVP. I'm sure 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:14.159 there's great odds. Kate's didn't tell us what those odds were. 0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:16.760 I had to sit there and worry about Caleb William's 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:18.240 nail polish color. 0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:20.240 Way more interesting. 0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:24.760 Right, But anyway, that is the story. I don't know 0:06:24.800 --> 0:06:27.719 how he got the keys, Matt, Okay, this is not 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:29.920 I was not the detective on this case. 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:33.279 If I was, I would be in jail for at 0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:34.200 least ten years. 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:39.800 And Puka is just straight and his brother straight.

It's time for the number of the same. 0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:50.480 Number of the day. 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:55.640 Well, a bit of a selfish number p But not entirely, Matt, 0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:58.799 You're not a selfish guy.

As we listened to 0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:53.960 ol CMC in the background last night. 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:57.400 This song was written at the Claremont Mining Company.

It's like a three and 0:09:23.480 --> 0:09:26.760 a half minute song. Keep it going. Now, I think 0:09:26.800 --> 0:09:29.560 that those might be the only lyrics. So if you 0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:30.240 want to hear. 0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:34.280 Well, now there's another verse. That night at the Glasshouse, 0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:40.960 puked up the guts and I confessed about misexuality. 0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:51.600 CMC. Oh verse two, I don't think so know? Oh 0:09:51.640 --> 0:09:57.079 you've reset it. Tell us about Brady back. The Claremont 0:09:57.480 --> 0:10:02.040 McKenna fifteen and zero record has come with victories over 0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:06.520 everyone in the sciac The Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic conference 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:14.160 save the University of Redlands, Ah the Dogs. Now the 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:19.440 Redlands basketball team is four and one in conference, twelve 0:10:19.559 --> 0:10:24.920 and two overall. And these two teams will not only 0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:28.320 tangle in the final game of the regular season on 0:10:28.400 --> 0:10:29.479 feb eighteen. 0:10:30.200 --> 0:10:32.520 That's gonna be a one of streets. 0:10:32.000 --> 0:10:34.520 Right, but they will also tangle on jan twenty one, 0:10:36.320 --> 0:10:39.600 one week from yesterday, at the University of Redlands, where 0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:42.200 their undefeated record could perhaps be challenged. 0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:47.480 I believe that Fred Rogan sun Jack Rogan is in 0:10:47.559 --> 0:10:54.200 his ninth year and Redlands.

I was hanging out 0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:33.480 with the mayor today, Matt. Yeah, I had a friend 0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:38.520 who was there. Send me the opening of your MC duties. 0:16:39.840 --> 0:16:44.400 Very exciting, Matt. How long? How long were you working 0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:44.800 out there? 0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:51.480 It's time for local knowledge, his local knowledge. 0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:54.000 He's very knowledgeable on the things that you come up with, 0:16:54.080 --> 0:16:56.880 as far as for with your knowledge or. 0:16:56.800 --> 0:17:06.280 What your knowledge is, Matt. Today, though David Vassay's very 0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:10.040 pointed remarks have hurt me, I have to be honest. 0:17:10.119 --> 0:17:18.119 His cousin gave me the hookup, and I was asked 0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:21.560 to be the MC of the State of the Port 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:28.040 event put on by the Port of Long Beach, the 0:17:28.040 --> 0:17:33.359 biggest and busiest port in the whole world. Now to 0:17:33.440 --> 0:17:36.600 say this is a step up, Matt, from my usual 0:17:36.680 --> 0:17:40.240 local hosting duties at the San Pedro Sports Walk on 0:17:40.280 --> 0:17:43.320 the deck of the USS Iowa, some might say, as 0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:44.720 an understatement. 0:17:45.160 --> 0:17:48.880 I'm counting in the shot that my friend Nick sent 0:17:48.960 --> 0:17:53.320 me no less than fifteen lights thirty feet in the 0:17:53.359 --> 0:17:56.280 air above you to give you the proper lighting for 0:17:56.359 --> 0:17:57.080 your introduction. 0:17:57.320 --> 0:18:01.040 Two thousand people there for a lunch. Yeah, It was 0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:04.080 in the Long Beach Convention Center, you know the one 0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:07.680 painted with the whales by Wyland that's all faded out. Yeah, 0:18:07.920 --> 0:18:11.159 where the Ice Doves used to play, used to have 0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:14.639 the Bob Marley Day concerts there. It was the state 0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:20.359 of the Port address. I met the mayor t Rex 0:18:20.560 --> 0:18:26.600 at a Covina, Rex Richardson, and he explained to me, Matt, 0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:32.800 that Long Beach has a more agile governance than the 0:18:32.840 --> 0:18:38.399 Los Angeles City aka the Port of San Pedro, so 0:18:38.440 --> 0:18:41.639 they can do things with the Long Beach port that 0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:44.159 Pedro can't do because they're tied to the city of 0:18:44.160 --> 0:18:48.679 Los Angeles, which is why Long Beach figured out a 0:18:48.720 --> 0:18:51.800 way to raise up. In fact, they just built a 0:18:51.800 --> 0:18:57.840 whole new Henry Ford Bridge so that most modern muscular, 0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:04.280 gigantic ships could get under the bridge and unload their 0:19:04.320 --> 0:19:09.760 stuff in Long Beach and sam Pedro has the sad 0:19:10.600 --> 0:19:15.160 though it was very innovative in its time, Vincent Thomas Bridge, 0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:19.080 which Yeah bridge. Sadly though, Matt, it is too low, 0:19:20.040 --> 0:19:22.880 so in sam Pedro we too. 0:19:22.720 --> 0:19:29.160 Low for the tall ships to get under. 0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:33.919 The two ports are the exact same size, but the 0:19:33.960 --> 0:19:38.439 Pedro side can't fit the big puzzo ships some bitch 0:19:38.840 --> 0:19:43.560 like the LBC Harbor, which makes me sad. I made 0:19:43.600 --> 0:19:49.040 a point of this difference in bridge clearing during my speech. 0:19:50.480 --> 0:19:52.320 I assumed it was received warmly. 0:19:52.480 --> 0:19:55.760 Very warmly received by the Long big hit with the 0:19:55.800 --> 0:19:59.639 Long Beach people, because they are very proud of the 0:19:59.720 --> 0:20:05.520 high of their bridge. 0:20:03.640 --> 0:20:04.480 And we too low. 0:20:06.520 --> 0:20:12.399 I also met the port commissioner, president and all the 0:20:12.440 --> 0:20:17.160 different commissioners. The president's Frank Kelowna, and I introduced him 0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:22.280 to and they had a music video for their house 0:20:22.359 --> 0:20:25.679 band and the port. They have a house band, Matt 0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:29.520 it should be Preston Smith and the Smiths, but it's not. 0:20:31.880 --> 0:20:35.400 It's unfortunate. Perhaps in the future. It's called the TEUs, 0:20:36.600 --> 0:20:37.760 which stands for to you. 0:20:38.320 --> 0:20:43.520 A TEU, I found out is a twenty foot equivalent unit, 0:20:44.359 --> 0:20:48.159 which is what those twenty foot long standard shipping containers 0:20:48.720 --> 0:20:51.679 that everything comes in and out. So the band is 0:20:51.680 --> 0:20:56.000 called the TEUs. And the CEO of the whole port 0:20:56.119 --> 0:20:59.680 thing was in the band playing the guitar and they 0:20:59.760 --> 0:21:04.080 cover modern English melt with you, but instead it was 0:21:05.320 --> 0:21:06.480 it was grow with you. 0:21:08.240 --> 0:21:09.679 I'll stop the world and grow with you. 0:21:10.080 --> 0:21:12.320 Yeah, We'll stop the world and grow with you because 0:21:12.320 --> 0:21:16.560 their port is growing, because their bridge is so high 0:21:16.920 --> 0:21:21.240 like the Tower of Babel. When the video started, I 0:21:21.320 --> 0:21:23.920 left because Great Sports Talk was calling, and now I'm here. 0:21:25.440 --> 0:21:27.920 I also learned a couple other things about Long Beach, Matt. 0:21:27.960 --> 0:21:30.840 If you're interested, you might have seen this because you 0:21:30.920 --> 0:21:35.800 live literally a stone's throwaway, yes, from the city of 0:21:35.800 --> 0:21:38.639 Long Beach. But did you know that Long Beach is 0:21:38.640 --> 0:21:41.680 getting a minor league baseball team, a new one for 0:21:41.800 --> 0:21:43.680 that pioneer Independent League thing? 0:21:44.440 --> 0:21:45.080 I did see that. 0:21:46.119 --> 0:21:49.040 Did you know that the people voted for a name. 0:21:51.240 --> 0:21:53.159 I did see that as well. Did you see what 0:21:53.200 --> 0:21:57.080 the name was? I believe there are two, which is interesting. 0:21:57.280 --> 0:22:00.320 Well, the name was the coast that beat out out. 0:22:00.240 --> 0:22:03.160 The parents, right? And I was a parent fan? 0:22:03.640 --> 0:22:07.520 Yeah, well of course you were. You're a big parentally, right. 0:22:08.160 --> 0:22:11.800 Who everybody knows Matt's favorite song is in Communicado. 0:22:13.960 --> 0:22:17.680 I have it on repeat. Uh? 0:22:17.720 --> 0:22:21.919 And I was explained uh this by the mayor today, Matt, 0:22:22.080 --> 0:22:23.760 of all people. I mean, I don't have the Long 0:22:23.800 --> 0:22:27.280 Beach papers right in my face like you do, mayor 0:22:27.280 --> 0:22:28.800 in your back pocket. I mean I got a mayor 0:22:28.840 --> 0:22:32.720 ride in my face, t Rex. But the people of 0:22:32.760 --> 0:22:36.359 Long Beach voted for the Coast, but because Warren g 0:22:37.440 --> 0:22:42.040 a former Petrosen money guest in person a part owner 0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:49.360 of the team, they're also going to be called the Regulators, 0:22:49.400 --> 0:22:52.760 Like how the Long Beach State Baseball team is also 0:22:52.880 --> 0:22:54.120 called the Dirt bg. 0:22:56.880 --> 0:22:59.400 Oh. I guess there's precedent there to have two names, right. 0:22:59.359 --> 0:23:07.280 So they're gonna have two names. Also in super cool 0:23:07.480 --> 0:23:10.960 Long Beach Rap News and maybe you saw this or 0:23:10.960 --> 0:23:14.840 didn't see it, Matten. So basically everybody in Long Beach 0:23:14.880 --> 0:23:19.159 has two names. Just to recap. You got lb the 0:23:19.200 --> 0:23:23.120 pronoun shark, right, and the forty nine ers. You've got 0:23:23.119 --> 0:23:27.080 the Dolphins and the Vikings at LBCC, and you have 0:23:27.200 --> 0:23:27.919 the Dirt. 0:23:27.640 --> 0:23:32.200 Bats Danny the Dolphin for diversity inclusivity. 0:23:31.840 --> 0:23:34.600 Danny, I thought, but yeah, what I mean, you know, 0:23:34.720 --> 0:23:38.960 I mean degree to disagree? Yeah, hey whatever. And the 0:23:39.040 --> 0:23:42.320 other one is vip Records. You know the vip Records 0:23:42.400 --> 0:23:46.159 sign that Snoop Dogg did his videos on and was 0:23:46.200 --> 0:23:49.320 a real famous from the Long Beach Rap movement of 0:23:49.359 --> 0:23:55.080 the nineties on P and MLK. They put two hundred 0:23:55.080 --> 0:23:59.560 and forty thousand dollars into it for renovations and another 0:23:59.560 --> 0:24:03.200 one hundred seventy thousand dollars they paid to VIP Records 0:24:03.240 --> 0:24:06.439 for five years of a licensing fee, and they're going 0:24:06.520 --> 0:24:09.119 to put up the sign at a Long Beach park. 0:24:12.560 --> 0:24:13.600 That's a lot of money. 0:24:14.280 --> 0:24:14.520 You know. 0:24:14.680 --> 0:24:16.920 I want to ask t Rex, like, really a half 0:24:16.920 --> 0:24:20.320 a million dollars for the VIP Records sign, Like I 0:24:20.320 --> 0:24:23.440 could get you Felix Chevrolet and Cadillac for fifty G's brother. 0:24:24.560 --> 0:24:27.520 You know if I remember right, because when my daughter 0:24:27.600 --> 0:24:31.840 used to practice at Long Beach CC, that's where it was. 0:24:31.960 --> 0:24:34.080 It was right there. So they're moving it from there 0:24:34.200 --> 0:24:38.200 to the VIP Records is closed. Oh so they've got 0:24:38.200 --> 0:24:40.720 a safe sign. Whatever occupies that building. 0:24:40.760 --> 0:24:43.800 The sign has been way beat up. They still own 0:24:43.840 --> 0:24:46.320 the building, although it's not open as a record store. 0:24:46.720 --> 0:24:50.280 The plan is in a few years, which is why 0:24:50.280 --> 0:24:53.000 I guess they haven't only a lease for five years. 0:24:53.359 --> 0:24:57.760 The plan, from what I understand, is after the five years, 0:24:57.880 --> 0:25:00.359 they're going to move the sign back to the v 0:25:00.600 --> 0:25:04.360 P building and by then they will have achieved their 0:25:04.440 --> 0:25:11.080 dream of turning it into a rap music museum. Okay, 0:25:11.680 --> 0:25:14.400 what's so funny? Well, you know, well I can see 0:25:14.400 --> 0:25:16.280 why I think it's funny.
