Okay, 0:01:11.040 --> 0:01:14.600 I'm gonna read you a quote and you have to 0:01:14.680 --> 0:01:20.760 tell me who this individual is referring to. Okay, all right, 0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:24.200 This is from Politico this morning and they did an 0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:29.600 interview with California Assembly Speaker Robert Revis. Here is what 0:01:29.680 --> 0:01:35.360 he had to say about Javier Bakaia quote. I think 0:01:35.520 --> 0:01:40.039 one quality about Javier Bakaia is he doesn't wake up 0:01:40.120 --> 0:01:43.959 every morning thinking how he can make headlines or be 0:01:44.080 --> 0:01:46.080 on the front page of our newspapers. 0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:49.480 End quote. 0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:53.920 That sounds like a shot across the bow from Reavus 0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:55.720 to Gavin Newsom. 0:01:57.280 --> 0:02:00.800 That's what I thought, too, scrub it. 0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:03.160 So the best thing that you can say about Bessera 0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:06.120 is that he's not chasing clout. 0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:09.600 I think the only times he pays attention to the 0:02:09.639 --> 0:02:13.360 television is when there's a toothpaste commercial from the nineteen fifties. 0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:18.200 That whole idea that he's put out there that we're 0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:20.519 going to give you the free power hour, it's going 0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:21.760 off like a lead balloon. 0:02:22.320 --> 0:02:24.800 Yeah, how about free power for twenty four hours? At 0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:26.880 least you can do something with that. Can you even 0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:28.120 cool your house in an hour? 0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:32.880 It is a policy that screams of I didn't do 0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:34.839 any research when I came up with this. 0:02:35.680 --> 0:02:40.919 Well, we know he's not big on reading. Eight hundred 0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:43.720 two two two five two two two is a telephone 0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:47.880 number one eight hundred two two two five two two two. Well, 0:02:47.919 --> 0:02:51.600 the top story today is the President Donald Trump is 0:02:51.639 --> 0:02:55.720 looking for a new White House Press secretary. That is 0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:58.680 a job. That's a very difficult job where you have 0:02:58.720 --> 0:03:02.560 a Washington Press peppering you with questions trying to play 0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:06.359 gotcha twenty four to seven. You need someone who can 0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:09.600 think on their feet and is quick with their tongue. 0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:13.960 One of the individuals who made the short list, according 0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:18.800 to one story in the California Post, is former candidate 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:22.200 for Los Angeles mayor Spencer Pratt. 0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:27.040 Spencer Pratt apparently is in the running and is being 0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:31.440 considered to become the next White House Press secretary. How 0:03:31.480 --> 0:03:33.520 long would his tour of duty be. Would he be 0:03:33.600 --> 0:03:35.760 there for two and a half years, would he be 0:03:35.840 --> 0:03:37.440 there for a scaramoci or two? 0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:38.200 Who knows? 0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:42.840 So we don't have an official list. Obviously. It's not 0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:45.480 like when you're looking at the NBA playoffs, you know 0:03:45.520 --> 0:03:48.400 which teams are going to the playoffs and which teams aren't. 0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:52.040 So this is yet another instance where we rely on 0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:55.280 the betting markets to try to tell us who is 0:03:55.760 --> 0:03:57.640 in the running. Are you ready for the list? 0:03:58.160 --> 0:03:58.880 I'm ready? 0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:04.080 Okay, this is according to bet online dot ag. 0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.400 That sounds lodhit. That sounds so legit. 0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:11.640 Okay, Am I going to get a virus by going 0:04:11.680 --> 0:04:12.480 to that website? 0:04:13.160 --> 0:04:15.960 Well we will know if all of a sudden, Johnny's 0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:18.960 feed starts displaying ransomware ads. 0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:24.479 Oh worried, It's too late. Now I should have done 0:04:24.480 --> 0:04:25.919 this on somebody else's computer. 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:30.120 I can't do it here. 0:04:30.200 --> 0:04:32.640 If I do it here, the whole system might go down, 0:04:32.880 --> 0:04:35.240 and the radio station may go off the air, and 0:04:35.240 --> 0:04:36.839 we'll end up like Sassoon City. 0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:40.599 Whenever I was researching a topic back of the old 0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:43.560 days and I had to look at something questionable, I 0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:46.240 always moved over to Peter Tilden's computer to do it. 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:52.679 But when you work from home, I guess I could 0:04:52.800 --> 0:04:54.479 tell my neighbor I need to borrow a cup of 0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:57.960 sugar and then go bring up betonline dot ag. 0:04:58.640 --> 0:05:00.800 Let's go ahead and just do it. Tell us what 0:05:00.880 --> 0:05:04.880 the odds are. Who is on the apparent short list 0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:10.679 for Press Secretary of these United States? On betonline dot ag, 0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:12.600 which I can't believe they're not paying us for the 0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:15.760 amount of times we've said that website. Right now, maybe 0:05:15.760 --> 0:05:17.680 that'll be the title sponsor. 0:05:17.520 --> 0:05:19.760 All right. So the first name on the list is 0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:24.320 Alina Hababa. She's the president's lawyer. If I'm not mistaken, I. 0:05:24.440 --> 0:05:28.360 Think it's just Haba. What did I call her? Hababa? 0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:33.919 Oh? God, you are having a week with names. I 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:39.440 turned her into a clerk at seven to eleven. That 0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:40.800 cashier is no dummy? 0:05:42.240 --> 0:05:43.520 Is the cashier's dummy? 0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:47.040 Okay? Anna Kelly? Is it four to one? Me doing 0:05:47.080 --> 0:05:49.599 this without my glasses? Man, this is a drunk band 0:05:49.680 --> 0:05:53.720 driving down an icy road. Number three is Jen Pellegrino. 0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:59.600 She's at six to one. Roma Haravi is at seven 0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:02.599 to one. Is it wrong that I haven't heard of 0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:05.040 any of these people? The only one I've heard of 0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:08.920 is Alena Haba, and I called her by the wrong name, 0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:14.600 Alena Hababa. He got Steve Chung and I follow him 0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:16.960 on Twitter. He was the guy that came from the Mma. 0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:19.840 He's at ten to one. Oh, he'll never be him. 0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:21.800 Trump thinks he's too fat to be in front of 0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:23.960 the camera every day. Have you ever seen a picture 0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:26.960 of the back of his head. It looks like a sharpay. 0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:34.680 And then you have Emerald Robinson at ten to one, 0:06:35.200 --> 0:06:39.400 Chanelle Rion at ten to one, Scott Jennings, oh, my 0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:42.880 former co worker over at CNN, he's at sixteen to one. 0:06:43.279 --> 0:06:45.599 Oh, that would be a pay cut. He's making a 0:06:45.640 --> 0:06:48.320 ton of money off of CNN and that Salem show. 0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:49.440 He's not going to do that. 0:06:49.600 --> 0:06:51.400 Yeah, he's not going over there. He's going to fight 0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:54.080 on Abby Phillips show every night and laugh all the 0:06:54.080 --> 0:06:58.039 way to the bank. Natalie Harp is at sixteen to one. 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:01.679 Jason Miller I used to work with him over at CNN, 0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:05.279 He's at sixteen to one. Scotti Nel Hughes, good friend 0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:07.280 of the show, who's going to be odd later today. 0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:11.360 She's at twenty two to one. Lara Trump is at 0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:14.560 thirty three to one, Carrie Lake is at thirty three 0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:19.200 to one, and our boy Spencer Pratt He's at fifty 0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:23.040 to one. And then below him is Erica Kirk at 0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:26.400 sixty six to one, and Tucker Carlson it one hundred 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:26.880 to one. 0:07:27.000 --> 0:07:30.320 Well, that one's not happening if it's Carrie Lake, the 0:07:30.840 --> 0:07:34.640 former talk show host and candidate for everything in Arizona 0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:37.120 and she's in the briefing room. Are they going to 0:07:37.200 --> 0:07:39.840 put vaseline on the lens? 0:07:39.960 --> 0:07:40.600 I don't know. 0:07:42.080 --> 0:07:44.320 It's kind of her move. Every single one of her 0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:47.720 campaign videos was shot like it was a nineteen seventy soap. 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:52.920 But yeah, Spencer Pratt is in the running and is 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:55.280 on the short list, which can mean a lot. It 0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:57.880 could also mean nothing. At one point, I was on 0:07:57.920 --> 0:07:59.920 the short list to replace Ken Champeau. 0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:01.480 Oh and that's right. 0:08:01.640 --> 0:08:04.200 That helped me get a very nice contract here, even 0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:07.360 though I think literally my name was floated once and 0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:13.120 that was enough. At one point I was being considered 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:15.840 to be the new board up for Tomkis. And by 0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:18.760 being considered, I mean my buddy Dino mentioned my name 0:08:18.840 --> 0:08:24.880 once and then they said, hell no, I would have 0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:25.600 loved that job. 0:08:26.440 --> 0:08:28.960 Oh you could press that blow up sounder all the time. 0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:31.080 Here you go, Tommy. 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:37.600 All right, So this is the way I see it. 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:40.320 At what was it fifty to one? I think it's 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:45.320 unlikely that he'll be the next Press secretary, but I 0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:47.199 think he would do a bang up job. 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:51.920 He is a very effective communicator, and unlike I would 0:08:51.920 --> 0:08:55.040 imagine the vast majority of people on that list who 0:08:55.080 --> 0:08:59.040 probably a lot of them have cable news experience. Spencer 0:08:59.080 --> 0:09:02.760 Pratt not only had the background in reality TV and 0:09:02.840 --> 0:09:07.600 the media, but he understands social media and the new 0:09:07.679 --> 0:09:10.440 media better than most people that are out there. 0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:14.280 And you look at his options, assuming he wants to 0:09:14.320 --> 0:09:16.959 stay involved in politics, which he says that he does, 0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:22.640 his options in California are somewhat limited in the sense 0:09:22.679 --> 0:09:26.440 that he's not making the November ballot. That's said and done, 0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:30.720 it's going to be Nitthia Rahman versus Karen Bass. So 0:09:30.720 --> 0:09:32.959 we're gonna have a choice between worse and worser. 0:09:33.360 --> 0:09:36.640 Well, the idea now is elect the one that's the 0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:39.800 most likely to get recalled or indicted, and then the 0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:42.680 hope will get prod elected in the recall vote. 0:09:43.559 --> 0:09:46.480 But if someone gets kicked out, they get impeached, or 0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:49.440 they resign, doesn't the council president become mereor until the 0:09:49.520 --> 0:09:50.120 term is up. 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:53.599 Oh that's a good point. We could have mayor unices. 0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:56.040 Yeah, I don't think you can put your chips on 0:09:56.240 --> 0:10:01.079 someone going to prison. But he can't run as a 0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:03.800 write in candidate. I know that gets suggested all the 0:10:03.840 --> 0:10:06.920 time by listeners. Well, just run as a write in candidate, 0:10:07.360 --> 0:10:09.640 and that way we will have the option of Spencer 0:10:09.640 --> 0:10:13.160 Pratt on the November ballot. It doesn't work like that. 0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:18.079 You cannot do that in a top two system. If 0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:23.000 there is closed primaries, you can run as a write 0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:26.400 in in the general election, usually depending on the rules 0:10:26.400 --> 0:10:30.280 of the jurisdiction. But when you have a top two system, 0:10:30.720 --> 0:10:33.160 everyone puts their name on the same ballot. You could 0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:35.800 run as a write in candidate in the primary and 0:10:35.840 --> 0:10:38.440 if you make the top two, then you move on 0:10:38.559 --> 0:10:42.559 in November. But November is just the top two from 0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:47.080 whatever whoever was on the ballot in the primary. So 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:49.720 he's not going to be a candidate for mayor in 0:10:49.840 --> 0:10:54.080 any capacity in Los Angeles. That being said, I think 0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:58.600 given the makeup of the electorate, I don't see him 0:10:58.640 --> 0:11:00.920 winning if he were to run again in four years 0:11:00.920 --> 0:11:04.600 from now unless something dramatically changes in this city. And 0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:06.880 I think he kind of feels the same way. He 0:11:06.920 --> 0:11:11.000 doesn't think he's electable citywide in Los Angeles as it 0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:16.000 exists today. You look at other offices, whether it be 0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:19.920 the city Council or the state legislature or the Congress. 0:11:20.880 --> 0:11:25.400 There's realistically speaking, in the city of Los Angeles, not 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:28.280 really much of an option for a Republican to get 0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:31.719 elected to any of those offices. Maybe if he were 0:11:31.760 --> 0:11:35.400 to move to the San Fernando Valley, maybe he could 0:11:35.440 --> 0:11:38.960 get elected to one of those seats. But you look 0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:41.240 at the seat that he's in right now, the Tracy 0:11:41.320 --> 0:11:46.679 Park seat. That doesn't only include Pacific Palisades, which has 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:51.800 essentially zero residents now, it also includes mar Vista and 0:11:51.920 --> 0:11:56.439 Venice and other areas that are way bluer than Pacific Palisades, 0:11:56.760 --> 0:12:00.480 which I would add is also blue. He would have 0:12:00.520 --> 0:12:03.439 a difficult time, I think, even winning that seat. And 0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:06.800 why bother running when the best member of the La 0:12:06.920 --> 0:12:11.160 City Council is already representing that seat. There's no need 0:12:11.200 --> 0:12:14.200 to replace Tracy Park. She's the one, sane one. She's 0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:16.240 the blonde girl on the monsters over there. 0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:19.480 Yeah, but she could run for mayor in twenty thirty. 0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:22.280 Yeah, if she runs for ryer office, he could do that. 0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:26.600 But she's up this time, correct, She just won. 0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:30.360 She just won, so she wouldn't run again until twenty thirty. 0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:34.600 But pract doesn't want to go to the city council. No, 0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:37.760 we know, we've been there, we know what that building 0:12:37.800 --> 0:12:38.440 smells like. 0:12:39.600 --> 0:12:41.560 So what you go to the city council so you 0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:45.920 can lose every vote thirteen to two. That would be 0:12:45.960 --> 0:12:49.120 a complete waste of time. There's no point in doing that. 0:12:49.480 --> 0:12:51.760 Go to Sacramento, what so you could be in the 0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:55.240 super minority and lose every vote up there too. That 0:12:55.360 --> 0:12:59.640 makes no sense. So why not go to Washington? If 0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:00.960 offer the job. 0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:04.480 Well, then you're leaving California to have to go to 0:13:04.520 --> 0:13:05.560 that dumpy swamp. 0:13:05.760 --> 0:13:07.920 That's true. I wouldn't want to do that. 0:13:08.320 --> 0:13:10.280 But the guy seems like he's been bit by the 0:13:10.320 --> 0:13:15.960 politics bug. He seems like he is genuinely interested, and 0:13:16.040 --> 0:13:19.520 when we had him on the program, he demonstrated that 0:13:19.600 --> 0:13:23.440 he is well read. He has spent a considerable amount 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:27.600 of time thinking about these issues. He has solutions to offer. 0:13:27.640 --> 0:13:30.400 It's not like he's just the complaint department where he 0:13:30.440 --> 0:13:33.600 spends the whole time bitching about things. He said, what 0:13:33.640 --> 0:13:37.040 they're doing isn't working. Here's my solution that I think 0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:40.040 can make things better. And that was his answer to 0:13:40.320 --> 0:13:42.920 almost every question that I asked him. That's what you 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:48.000 want from a politician. He doesn't use bureaucratise. He's not 0:13:48.120 --> 0:13:50.120 one of these people where you have to parse every 0:13:50.160 --> 0:13:52.720 word that he uses to understand what he's trying to 0:13:52.720 --> 0:13:56.959 communicate to you. He speaks very plainly. He comes from 0:13:57.000 --> 0:14:02.800 a background in television, so he understands the medium. He 0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:07.560 understands how to use the camera to get whatever message 0:14:07.600 --> 0:14:11.120 it is that you're trying to get across across. He 0:14:11.160 --> 0:14:13.520 clearly gets along with Trump. I think Trump has had 0:14:13.600 --> 0:14:15.840 him at the White House at least on one occasion. 0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:18.320 And I know that Trump is a fan of his 0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:21.480 because Trump has been tweeting about him on social media 0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:25.560 and certainly endorsed him in the LA mayor's race. Whether 0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:28.400 Pratt wanted that endorsement or not remains to be seen, 0:14:29.040 --> 0:14:33.240 but he got it. A lot of candidates want Trump's 0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:37.160 endorsement and can't get it. Pratt was able to get 0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:43.400 the President to sign on. So I think if you 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:45.920 were to put him in front of that press corps, 0:14:45.960 --> 0:14:48.320 in front of those cameras, it would be a show 0:14:48.360 --> 0:14:52.320 every day, it would be worth tuning into. I think 0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:55.240 that he and Trump would get along, so you wouldn't 0:14:55.280 --> 0:14:59.120 have conflict between those two, and I think he would 0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:01.640 help advance Trump's this agenda. 0:15:02.440 --> 0:15:05.000 I think he would have a miserable time doing that job. 0:15:05.000 --> 0:15:07.200 But right now we know what things he cares about, 0:15:07.240 --> 0:15:09.760 we know what things he advocates for. And he's doing 0:15:09.800 --> 0:15:12.800 a great job on social media going after Bob Bonta 0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:15.280 and this lawsuit against the Paramount Merger. 0:15:15.320 --> 0:15:15.880 What have you. 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:18.400 We've seen all the videos he's put out against Bass 0:15:18.440 --> 0:15:21.080 and Nitia. He does his own podcast from his burned 0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:24.200 out lot. If you're the press secretary now you have 0:15:24.240 --> 0:15:26.080 to answer questions about the straight of. 0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:29.600 Horror moves every day. Who wants that job? But you 0:15:29.720 --> 0:15:32.920 also have the president's here. You're also in the same 0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:37.840 building as him, and you're in constant communication with him. 0:15:38.440 --> 0:15:42.280 And even though it seems like it's never gonna get 0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:46.360 better in California, when we do see signs of things 0:15:46.400 --> 0:15:49.600 getting better of late, it's because there's been pressure coming 0:15:49.600 --> 0:15:53.000 from the federal government. Whether it's them cutting off the 0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:57.240 funds to the phony Boloney homeless services groups, whether it's 0:15:57.280 --> 0:16:00.920 them cutting off the funds to high Speed Rail after 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:05.160 they failed to meet their obligations in the contract, whether 0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:09.960 it is the US Attorney in Southern California, Bill A. Sale, 0:16:10.320 --> 0:16:13.560 who is going after the fraudsters who are stealing money 0:16:13.560 --> 0:16:18.040 from taxpayers. We're not getting any progress at the city level, 0:16:18.440 --> 0:16:21.320 we're not getting any progress at the county level or 0:16:21.360 --> 0:16:24.320 the state level, but we are having pressure put on 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:27.040 us by the federal government that is pushing us in 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:30.840 the right direction. And that's just with people like Assie 0:16:31.400 --> 0:16:35.840 and other Californians har to meet Dylan and others. If 0:16:35.880 --> 0:16:39.720 you had someone who came from this state in that 0:16:39.920 --> 0:16:44.800 press room on a daily basis in Trump's ear, I 0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:47.480 think you could get even more pressure put on these 0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:50.359 people and see more progress in California. 0:16:51.160 --> 0:16:54.320 Well, there definitely is that aspect to look forward to, 0:16:54.480 --> 0:16:57.720 but you know, you could argue that his advocacy is 0:16:57.760 --> 0:17:00.280 already doing that. You look at what the the US 0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:04.000 Attorney's Office announced in the FBI announced yesterday where they're 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:06.960 going to start offering five thousand dollars rewards for people 0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:09.800 on information for the animal abuse that's going on every 0:17:09.880 --> 0:17:13.280 day in skid Row. That is because of advocacy of 0:17:13.359 --> 0:17:16.240 because of people like Joey Tuccio and Spencer Pratt, who 0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:19.719 has elevated and promoted Joey Tugo, and that is a 0:17:19.920 --> 0:17:22.879 huge deal. So he's been able to accomplish a lot 0:17:22.920 --> 0:17:25.880 of that stuff from where he is right now, as 0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:29.080 this kind of like parapolitical influencer. 0:17:29.840 --> 0:17:32.119 Well, let's throw it open to the phones right now 0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:35.000 at eight hundred two two two five two two two 0:17:35.600 --> 0:17:38.520 one eight hundred two two two five two two two. 0:17:39.160 --> 0:17:42.240 Do you think Spencer Pratt would make a good press secretary? 0:17:42.840 --> 0:17:45.920 I do, And not only that, I think he could 0:17:46.000 --> 0:17:49.640 use his position there to really improve things in California. 0:17:50.240 --> 0:17:53.080 What say you at eight hundred two two two five 0:17:53.160 --> 0:17:56.360 two two two one eight hundred two two two five 0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:58.720 two two two. If you want to weigh in in 0:17:58.800 --> 0:18:01.280 the chat, you can do so. Johnny don't Like dot 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:03.800 Com will read some of those remarks on the air 0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:05.840 as well, And of course, if you want to email 0:18:05.920 --> 0:18:08.760 us at Johnny don't like dot Com. If you'd like 0:18:08.840 --> 0:18:10.960 to email the show, you can do so at Johnny 0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:15.040 don't like dot Com. That's Johnny don't like dot Com. 0:18:15.359 --> 0:18:18.880 Wait no, nope, you screwed it up. Damn it. 0:18:20.040 --> 0:18:24.840 I thought I was the one exhausted this week. The 0:18:24.920 --> 0:18:28.320 email is Johnny Don't like Show at gmail dot com. 0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:32.200 The website where you can watch us and play around 0:18:32.240 --> 0:18:35.199 in the chatroom is Johnny don't like dot Com. And 0:18:35.240 --> 0:18:38.160 we're getting tons and tons of suggestions and comments on 0:18:38.200 --> 0:18:43.520 this press secretary gig, including listener Dbapacity, who writes in 0:18:43.880 --> 0:18:46.520 let's send John Phillips, Randy can hold down the show 0:18:46.600 --> 0:18:47.560 until he gets fired. 0:18:49.680 --> 0:18:51.919 How long do you think I would last in that job? 0:18:52.520 --> 0:18:56.000 Well, it's a job where, depending on the events of 0:18:56.040 --> 0:18:58.560 the day, you may be having to say on the 0:18:58.640 --> 0:19:02.199 podium names of foreign dignitaries. 0:19:02.760 --> 0:19:08.120 Yeah, that wouldn't mark. Nope. My problem is that when 0:19:08.119 --> 0:19:11.719 I get really tired, I get really punchy, really fast, 0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:18.439 you don't say. And that job requires a lot of 0:19:18.480 --> 0:19:21.879 travel where you have to switch time zones and that 0:19:22.080 --> 0:19:26.159 sort of thing, and so my sleep patterns would be 0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:29.560 disrupted twenty four to seven. I can't imagine I would 0:19:29.600 --> 0:19:31.520 be terribly pleasant to be around. 0:19:32.000 --> 0:19:36.040 You'd be real cranky. And the demand of that job 0:19:36.359 --> 0:19:38.840 means you will not be able to go on monthly cruises. 0:19:39.320 --> 0:19:42.399 That's true. And if Johnny doesn't make me cranky. 0:19:42.160 --> 0:19:45.040 If Johnny doesn't have his cruises, he is a bitch 0:19:45.080 --> 0:19:45.840 to deal with. 0:19:49.880 --> 0:19:52.159 That, Big said. I did work at CNN for a 0:19:52.240 --> 0:19:56.600 number of years where I was being fired at pretty 0:19:56.640 --> 0:19:58.760 much the entire time I was on the air. 0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:02.080 But definitely have battle experience. 0:20:02.520 --> 0:20:05.879 Yeah. Not for me though, that's for sure, but maybe 0:20:05.880 --> 0:20:09.440 for Spencer Pratt. What say you at eight hundred two 0:20:09.520 --> 0:20:12.800 two two five two two two What eight hundred two 0:20:12.920 --> 0:20:18.040 two two five two two two. Let's begin with Bob 0:20:18.160 --> 0:20:19.400 and Rancho Cucamonga. 0:20:19.720 --> 0:20:26.000 Bob, Hello, gentleman, longtime, no speak, Hey, Brandy, I'm gonna 0:20:26.000 --> 0:20:29.159 propose a new backdrop for Johnny.

He's different. His name is 0:21:02.480 --> 0:21:05.960 spelled different than yours. You're Bob Bonta. He's Bob with 0:21:06.040 --> 0:21:06.560 two oh's. 0:21:07.760 --> 0:21:11.280 No, I'm Bob from Kukamonga. Oh yeah, yeah, he's dog 0:21:11.400 --> 0:21:14.360 at it. Yeah, taking a second. 0:21:14.080 --> 0:21:15.920 Sorry, I call him Bob afe. 0:21:17.240 --> 0:21:22.160 Yeah that's that's pretty good. But yeah, uh man, Spencer Pratt, 0:21:22.320 --> 0:21:26.359 I would love to have him as a up there 0:21:26.359 --> 0:21:29.520 in front of the media, just burning them every stupid 0:21:29.600 --> 0:21:32.840 question have they ask. The only reject the only objection 0:21:32.960 --> 0:21:35.960 I have to it is that I think that the 0:21:36.280 --> 0:21:40.399 administration is having enough fires stirring around it in excuse me, 0:21:41.119 --> 0:21:44.000 around it right now because of the media. I think 0:21:44.119 --> 0:21:47.359 throwing him it'd be like throwing just another another coal 0:21:47.400 --> 0:21:49.960 into the fire. I would love to have him just 0:21:50.119 --> 0:21:53.600 burn everybody on the media the way Trump has had 0:21:53.600 --> 0:21:56.720 his uh, his press people going out there and doing 0:21:56.720 --> 0:21:59.960 which is just it's phenomenal. And the one thing I 0:22:00.160 --> 0:22:03.840 know he would hould up where the Trump administration would 0:22:03.880 --> 0:22:07.159 be just the clarity and just the openness and the 0:22:07.200 --> 0:22:10.720 willing to tell it how it is. People don't say 0:22:11.000 --> 0:22:15.840 how it really is nowadays. Everybody wants to just cover 0:22:15.880 --> 0:22:19.400 everything with sugar and roses. Are just lie about everything, 0:22:19.520 --> 0:22:22.760 be it the good the bad. They just nobody can 0:22:22.840 --> 0:22:26.960 even understand straight on talk right now without being offended. 0:22:27.760 --> 0:22:32.760 America needs a press agent, like, I mean, a press guy. 0:22:32.840 --> 0:22:35.679 I got that telling it how it is. But I 0:22:35.720 --> 0:22:39.280 think it would really scare and stir up the fire 0:22:39.359 --> 0:22:41.760 even more so. I'd love to see it, man, God, 0:22:41.800 --> 0:22:44.159 I kind of hope he does. Maybe he might do 0:22:44.280 --> 0:22:47.000 the skyamuci thing and just be there for a handful 0:22:47.040 --> 0:22:49.440
