1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:00,880
Speaker 1: Can't.

2
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,080
Speaker 2: I am six forty.

3
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,319
Speaker 3: You're listening to the John Cobel podcast on the iHeartRadio

4
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 3: app every day. We do the show between one and

5
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 3: four o'clock every day. You can also hear it streaming

6
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 3: on the iHeart app, and after four o'clock the podcast

00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 3: version also on the app, and it's same as the

8
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:18,640
Speaker 3: radio show.

9
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:20,920
Speaker 2: After four o'clock you can download it.

10
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 3: Later this hour, we're gonna go through all the bizarre

11
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 3: reactions in Washington over Trump trying to stop people from

12
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 3: getting murdered. This is like the Great Insanity Test. How

13
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 3: angry do you get because Trump wants to stop people

14
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:43,519
Speaker 3: from getting murdered in.

15
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 2: Washington, DC? All right, we'll do that.

16
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,880
Speaker 3: We'll also talk about absolutely the stupidest selfie ever taken,

17
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 3: but boy did he get justice. That's later on. Chrys

18
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 3: La Graz coming on with us there. He's a local

19
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 3: journal to as we've had on this for quite a

20
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 3: few times. He does great work. He's got a piece

21
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 3: at Pasadena noow dot com. After the Palisades and Altadena

22
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 3: burned out, they were trying to pass laws so that

23
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 3: developers can move in and build low income housing, multi

24
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 3: family units, apartment buildings and duplexes and quadruplexes. And most

25
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 3: of the people who live in the Palisades, I know

26
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 3: for sure, live in single family homes and they like

27
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 3: it that way. And you have these outsiders who are

28
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 3: banging the drum for low income housing, and nobody wants

29
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 3: that in the Pallisades.

30
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:43,839
Speaker 2: Beleeve me nobody.

31
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 3: And eventually Newsom realized he was on the losing side,

32
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 3: issued an executive order and they're not going to be

33
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 3: building low income housing. So the low income housing advocates

34
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 3: want to sue to reverse Newsom's order. Let's talk to

35
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 3: Chris Lagrad to see what this is about. Chris, how

36
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 3: are you hey?

37
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 1: Good John? How are you?

38
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 2: I'm all right.

39
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,519
Speaker 3: So as it stands, news is shoot in order and

40
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 3: that blocks these low income housing ideas.

41
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 2: What are these groups planning to do.

42
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,239
Speaker 1: Well? First of a couple of quick points of clarification.

43
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,119
Speaker 1: The story opacity that now is not actually mine. There's

44
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: actually not a name on a story, but that's where

45
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 1: the story first ran that brought people's attention to this.

46
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: And Newsom's order applies specifically to one law called SB nine,

47
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 1: and what SB nine does is allows developers to go

48
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: in and buy a single family parcel, split it in

49
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 1: two and build duplexes on each of the two new

50
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 1: parcels for a total four units where there used to

51
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: be a single family house. And then using ADUs and

52
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 1: JADUs you can get as many as eight and possibly

53
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 1: ten units where there used to be, you know, a house.

54
00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: And obviously Pacific Colisades in Alpadena are ripe for this

55
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: kind of development because you don't have to pay for

56
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 1: the demolition because mother nature already did it for you

57
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: if you're a developer. So about two and a half

58
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 1: weeks ago it was reported that developers had started doing

59
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 1: exactly this with SB nine on a half a dozen

60
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: or so parcels in the palisades. And these are not

61
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: people rebuilding. These are developers who bought parcels from people

62
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: whose homes had burned out and do it, decided or

63
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: would not be able to rebuild, and tried to start

64
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: shoehorning multiple units into the palisades. We haven't seen if

65
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: it's happening in Altadena, but it is almost certainly happening

66
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: in Altadena. So this resulted in a letter both from

67
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: Tracy Park, the council woman of course for the Palisades,

68
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: who wrote to the governor as soon as you've learned

69
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 1: of it two fridays ago. That was followed by a

70
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,839
Speaker 1: letter from Mayor Bass, and within about five days knew

71
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: some e signed as executive order exempting just Altadena and

72
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: the Palisades from this kind of quote unquote multi family development.

73
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: And in response, Yimbi Law has announced that they are considering,

74
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: I don't want to stay threatening, but considering a lawsuit

75
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 1: to overturn Newsom's order so that developers could continue adding

76
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,919
Speaker 1: thousands and thousands of new units to places that have

77
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 1: already burned. And the quote I think that sums it

78
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: all up is that one of the attorneys in this

79
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 1: Pasadena Now story was quoted as saying, quote, there is

80
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 1: nothing linking additional density to added fire danger. And he's

81
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 1: saying this about a place where, with the current density,

82
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: we had gridlocked evacuations, people running through smoke and embers

83
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: on foot, and bulldozers pushing cars out of the way

84
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: so fire engines could actually get to the fire. But

85
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: adding a couple thousand more people at no real connection.

86
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 3: YIBBI stands for a yes in my backyard, which I

87
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 3: find to be one of the most obnoxious phrases yes

88
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 3: in my backyard, Well, then put them in your backyard.

89
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,159
Speaker 3: But this crowd is saying yes in other people's backyards.

90
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 1: Well, and here's the thing. The reason and Gavin Newsom

91
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: acted so quickly is that this is he's actually and

92
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 1: people really need to understand because that this is the

93
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 1: greater significance. The reason he did this so quickly is

94
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 1: there is another even worse bill as we speak, making

95
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 1: its way through the legislature, SB seventy nine, And what

96
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: SB seventy nine does is that it requires cities to

97
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 1: approve multifamily developments up to seven stories, and then when

98
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: you add other existing laws, it could be up to

99
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: as many as fifteen stories in single family neighborhoods.

100
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 3: Fifteen fifteen stories and a single family neighborhood.

101
00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 2: There's a bill that would allow that.

102
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 1: And the only requirement is that the parcel will be

103
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: within a half mile or a quarter mile of certain

104
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: kinds of transit stops. And you don't even need to

105
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,040
Speaker 1: worry about the definitions because ultimately the goal of this

106
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: build is that any parcel that's within a half mile

107
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: the bus stop will be automatically up zoned and I

108
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 1: can go build fifteen stories where they're used to.

109
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 3: I mean, I heard about f SP seventy nine, we

110
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 3: talked about it. I had no idea could lead to

111
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 3: a fifteen story apartment building on a single family site.

112
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: Absolutely, because nine itself has new heights allotments, and then

113
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,840
Speaker 1: when you add again density bonus and other incentives, you

114
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: just multiply the number of units. Oh and also, according

115
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: to recent law, you can build that, let's say, fifteen

116
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: stories without a single off street parking spot because you're

117
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 1: near a bus line or a train line.

118
00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 3: To try to force everybody onto buses and trains. Yes, yeah, yeah,

119
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what it could effect me. Because you're

120
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 3: a half mile away from Sunset Boulevard and I'm pretty

121
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 3: sure there's a bus stop there, So yeah, this is

122
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 3: trying to force me to take the bus to take

123
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 3: the bus to Burbank.

124
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're screwed.

125
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

126
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 2: I could wake up and.

127
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 3: There could be a fifteen story low income apartment building

128
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 3: across the street.

129
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: It could be low income, it could be luxury, it

130
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: could be anything that developer can get away with. Here's

131
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: Oh and here's another wonderful example. I just learned of

132
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 1: a project up in the Bay area that's taking advantage

133
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 1: of some of these laws. And it's a twenty unit development,

134
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: except one of the units is a fifty four bed

135
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: assisted care facility that this developer, who is very creative.

136
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: My head is off to their legal team somehow managed

137
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: to get this fifty four unit assisted care facility counted

138
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: as a single units for purposes of the approvals.

139
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 2: Is that going into a residential area?

140
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's up there. I believe it's Marine Countla County.

141
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

142
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: And the reason I'm telling that story is it's another

143
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: example of these laws that have been passed over the

144
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 1: last seven or eight years by people like Scott Wiener

145
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: and EMBs. We are now starting to see the worst

146
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 1: fears that those of us who have been advocating against

147
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,119
Speaker 1: these laws all along, our worst fears are coming true

148
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 1: because they are written so broadly and in language that

149
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 1: has so many loopholes you could, you know, literally drive

150
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: a construction truck through it. And we're now starting to

151
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: see that manifest in all of these different ways. And

152
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: so Gavin Newsom said, sure, I'll get rid of Stbnine

153
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: in the Palisades and Altadna, which also by the ray,

154
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: raises another question. So then the question is, mister governor,

155
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 1: are just so unclear? There are hundreds of other communities,

156
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: including yours, including mine in the Bay Area, that are

157
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,960
Speaker 1: very similar to the Palisates in terms of fire danger, evacuations,

158
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 1: et cetera. So, mister Governor, is the new policy that

159
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: I have to wait for my neighborhood to burn down

160
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: before I get relief from these laws?

161
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 2: Yes? Why is the only on behalf of the governor?

162
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: Yes?

163
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 3: The answers, yes, can you all right? Thanks very much

164
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:20,680
Speaker 3: for coming on, Chris.

165
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 2: We'll talk.

166
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 1: There's a ton more to talk about.

167
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:26,199
Speaker 2: Do you got time to stay on it?

168
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: Wait?

169
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 2: Wait, do you got time to stay in another segment?

170
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: Oh?

171
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 2: Sure, okay, all right, then hang on, hang on, we'll

172
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 2: talk more about this Crystal Gras.

173
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM

174
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 4: six forty.

175
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 3: We continue with Crystal Gras. Chris is a local journalist,

176
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 3: and we're talking about all these outrageous laws which are

177
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 3: going to allow developers to buy lots in your single

178
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 3: family neighborhood and build all kinds of high density housing.

179
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 2: Is the polite term. It's could be love income housing, It.

180
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 3: Could be housing that ends up fifteen stories high right

181
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 3: across the street from you, because they're using the state

182
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 3: law to overrule all local law, local zoning law, especially

183
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 3: when it comes to single family housing, which apparently has

184
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 3: been declared evil by the progressives in Sacramento.

185
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 2: Chris, when we left off, you said there's a lot

186
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 2: more going on. What else is going on?

187
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 1: Well, you know, since since about twenty for about the

188
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: last ten years, the legislature has passed something like three

189
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: hundred bills that have been signed in the law and

190
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 1: in some shape or form, rest control from local governments

191
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 1: away from development and housing and land use. And there

192
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: are all sorts of new exceptions and exemptions for multi

193
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: family development because, as you alluded to, the prevailing wisdom

194
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: and Sacramento is that single family houses are responsible for

195
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: everything from racism to to you know, polar bears dying,

196
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 1: horrible depths.

197
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 2: Right, climate change.

198
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, So, now never mind the fact that eighty two

199
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: percent of Calns, of every conceivable walk pipe in the

200
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: background live in low density neighborhoods, single family neighborhoods and

201
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:21,439
Speaker 1: duplexes and the like. You know, that's that's the California

202
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: a dream, and that has declared war on so whether

203
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: it's a density bonus is something that they use that

204
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,680
Speaker 1: if a developer adds just a small sprinkling of quote

205
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: unquote affordable units, they get to add multiples of that

206
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: in regular price, market rate and measury units. So the

207
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 1: way it pencils out for the developer, who, by the way,

208
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: there's no way of enforcing even those affordability requirements, but

209
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 1: the developer just puts it down on paper and they

210
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: get their extra units and their extra levels, And as

211
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: I said a few minutes ago, that's how you get

212
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: to as many as fourteen or fifteen under SB seventy nine.

213
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 1: So they are now SB seventy nine is a culmination

214
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 1: of this whole process. And California is in good company.

215
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 1: Oregon has has all but outlawed single family zoning. The

216
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 1: city of Minneapolis got rid of single family zoner. New

217
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: York is trying to do it, and there's even some

218
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: similar legislation in Texas and Florida. Because you know, for

219
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: certain Republicans, they think this is a matter of property

220
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: rights and if you want a piece of property, if

221
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 1: you want to build fifteen stories, well you should be

222
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: allowed to build fifteen stories. So there's actually a Bill

223
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: in Florida right now, that would do something similar to

224
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,199
Speaker 1: SB seventy nine. Ex a mile radius, not a half

225
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: mile radius. And as I often say to folks, you know,

226
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,959
Speaker 1: when Gavin Newsom and Ron De Santis starts singing from

227
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: the same hymn, all the rest of us better pay attention.

228
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 3: And this is all funded by developers who spend lots

229
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,319
Speaker 3: of money on guys from Newsome to Desantus.

230
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Scott Wiener in Sacramento. So yeah, absolutely, this

231
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 1: is big developers, big finance, big philanthropy, and big tech.

232
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 1: And you know, this is all the fifteen minute city,

233
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 1: which you and I have talked about many times, and

234
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: I know others have talked about on the show. But

235
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: lest anybody have any doubt, take a look at SB

236
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: seventy nine.

237
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 3: Fifteen minute cities. Just briefly run down that whole concept

238
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,319
Speaker 3: because most what I bring this up every once in

239
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 3: a while with people and.

240
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:26,839
Speaker 2: They've never heard of this.

241
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 3: And that's the real problem here is most people don't

242
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,680
Speaker 3: know this is all going on. But briefly, what's a

243
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 3: fifteen minute city?

244
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 1: Right? Well, because most people have better things to worry about,

245
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: the idea of the fifteen minute city was originated in

246
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: where many great ideas have come from over the last

247
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 1: century or so, at the Sorbonne in Paris, by a

248
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: professor there who the concept is that everybody should live

249
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 1: in intense urban cores where everything we need is a

250
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: fifteen minute walk, bicycle ride or transit ride away from

251
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:05,680
Speaker 1: work in school, creation, to socializing, to shopping to everything.

252
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 1: It's all in about fifteen minutes and get there. We

253
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:11,679
Speaker 1: need to get rid of our cars, which is why

254
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 1: the city of Paris over the last five years has

255
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: gotten rid of about sixty percent of its public parking spaces.

256
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 1: And if you want to see the future if California

257
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 1: continues down this path, go to the fifteenth or on

258
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: these months, a TikToker or a delivery driver how they

259
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 1: feel about lousy about parking. It's it's always, you know,

260
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: the lower income and the working folks who get hit

261
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: first and worst. So this is this SB seventy nine,

262
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 1: this up zoning, this trying to turn single family homes

263
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 1: into many Miami beaches, the Manhattan's this is this is

264
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: a very well refined theory, and it's happening.

265
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 3: But eighty two percent of the public is living in

266
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 3: single family home neighborhoods. When when everybody figures this out,

267
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 3: and clearly very few have, there's going to be a

268
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 3: big blowback.

269
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 2: There has to be.

270
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: Well, but by that time Zron, Momdamnie will be president

271
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 1: and we'll be out of lock.

272
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 3: Chris, I gotta go, gotta do the news. Thank you,

273
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 3: all right, Chris Lagra, journalist. Yeah, we can't do enough

274
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 3: on this topic. And you've got to become aware of

275
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 3: this and start spreading the word yourself or you are,

276
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 3: because there's usually there's no parking requirements for these developers

277
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 3: to put up these monstrosities, these up to fifteen story buildings,

278
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 3: with all these dozens of units, there's no parking requirements,

279
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 3: and there's no there's no uh way to get out

280
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 3: in the Palisades. It was nearly impossible to get out

281
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 3: as it was. Oh, they hate suburbia. And of course

282
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 3: the Republicans are finding a reason to join this because

283
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 3: they want the money. You know, for decades the Republicans

284
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 3: were just as complicit in open borders because their corporate

285
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 3: buddies wanted the cheap labor. That's why we had a

286
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 3: huge problem. And now they're back joining forces with the

287
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 3: likes of Scott Wiener and Gavin Newsom because they're all

288
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:20,119
Speaker 3: got their heads in the troth enjoying all those campaign

289
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 3: donations from the developers. We got there's a lot of

290
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 3: work to do. You got to wake up, stop staring

291
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 3: at your phone. We got Briginta, Oh we come back,

292
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 3: more reaction from journalists who are angry with Trump, trying

293
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 3: to slow down the murders in Washington, and the story

294
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 3: about a guy who took the stupidest selfie ever and

295
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 3: he got instant justice.

296
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI Am

297
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 4: six forty.

298
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 2: We're on from one until four.

299
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 3: If you missed the show today, ah, it's wrong with you.

300
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 3: We covered Trump's taken over the Washington, d c. Police

301
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 3: Department and the reaction of the media in the first hour,

302
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 3: and you should go listen to that after four o'clock

303
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 3: on the iheartapp John Cobel Show on Demand, the podcast

304
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 3: and I want to follow up a little bit here

305
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 3: because what we talked about before is was the ABC

306
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 3: News anchored him, Tyra Phillips, and she told a story

307
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 3: on air about getting jumped in DC.

308
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 2: By a half dressed.

309
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 3: Homeless guy that must have been really pleasant, and then

310
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 3: Joe Scarborough said, and of course he was a known liar.

311
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 3: He insisted, even after the Joe Biden bellyflop debate, that

312
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 3: Biden was the best version of Biden ever. He had

313
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 3: previously said that all of his guests who defend Biden

314
00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 3: say privately that Biden is shot. So he's bailed the

315
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:05,439
Speaker 3: truth and then went back to pretending that Biden is Okay.

316
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 3: I don't understand this. I don't know what's wrong with

317
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 3: these people. They're all mental LYO. Well, now he's back,

318
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 3: and he said the same thing about all the criticism

319
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 3: of Trump going into Washington, d C.

320
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:21,639
Speaker 2: To take over the police.

321
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 3: He said, all these reporters are going on TV, going

322
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 3: on Twitter, bashing Trump, and then they privately tell him

323
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:33,400
Speaker 3: Joe Scarborough, that yeah, crime really is out of control

324
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 3: and something's got to be done. So a lot of

325
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,399
Speaker 3: the people in major positions in the media, on television

326
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 3: and in print internet, they they're liars. They're performing for

327
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 3: fellow Trump haters in the media, or they get I

328
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 3: guess kicked out of the club. I don't know. One

329
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 3: of these guys is Peter Baker. He's the New York

330
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 3: Times Chief White House correspondent, let that sink in New

331
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 3: York Times Chief White House correspondent. You'd think he'd try

332
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,199
Speaker 3: to pretend to be objective, even though he's not. But

333
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 3: he put out a series of tweets saying, citing a

334
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 3: non existent crime crisis, Trump's taking over the DC police.

335
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,239
Speaker 3: Contrary to his claims, violent crime in DC is at

336
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 3: a thirty year low. Now Baker knows that there's an investigation.

337
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 3: Apparently a Washington DC Police captain is being investigated because

338
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:42,199
Speaker 3: he was screwing with the numbers. They do that on

339
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:49,159
Speaker 3: purpose so that it doesn't register as as such a

340
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 3: high crime rate. When the federal government collects data, there's

341
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 3: many ways to do it, and this guy was accused

342
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 3: of it. So there's an investigation going. The numbers were

343
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 3: fake numbers, is the bottom line. And they've done this

344
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 3: in Los Angeles as well. LA Times had a story

345
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,680
Speaker 3: on that some years ago. So often crime numbers are fake.

346
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 3: But I've got to tell you this, even if it

347
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 3: was at a thirty year low in Washington, it's the

348
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,880
Speaker 3: fourth worst homicide rate in the country. So can you

349
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 3: imagine what it's been like in Washington, d C. When

350
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 3: you hit a thirty year low, and you're still fourth

351
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 3: worst in the nation. And for four years from twenty

352
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,160
Speaker 3: five years, I guess twenty twenty twenty one, twenty two,

353
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:36,679
Speaker 3: twenty three, four years, it's been extremely bad because they

354
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:42,119
Speaker 3: defunded the police and there's no bail and most of

355
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 3: these criminals are teenagers and they're not put away. So

356
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 3: of course you're going to get this. But Baker claims

357
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:53,399
Speaker 3: it non exist in crime crisis. Then Peter Baker says, okay,

358
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 3: the worst single day crime spree in modern Washington history

359
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 3: took place on January sixth, twenty twenty one. Then here's

360
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 3: another tweet. Trump himself has been convicted of thirty four felonies.

361
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 3: First criminal elected to president. This is the objective New

362
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 3: York Times White House correspondent. So one media guy named

363
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 3: Tom Elliott, he runs a conservative website called Grabian. He

364
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 3: got fed up with this and said, I'll personally pledge

365
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 3: three hundred dollars for Peter to live stream himself walking

366
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 3: the following route unarmed after nine o'clock on any weekend night.

367
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 3: That is the perfect response. We're inviting New York Times

368
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 3: reporter Peter Baker, who assures us the streets are safer

369
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 3: than Disneyland to take a scenic, unarmed stroll through the

370
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 3: nation's capital capital after nine pm on a weekend night,

371
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:49,959
Speaker 3: and the route a lovingly curated trail of fun cmp

372
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 3: weaving through some of DC's most charming neighborhoods, no security detail,

373
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:59,640
Speaker 3: no pepper spray, just pure, unfiltered utopia. And people were

374
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 3: on trying to add to the offer, and Tom Elliott

375
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,399
Speaker 3: kept upping it, saying, we're already up to more than

376
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 3: one thousand dollars to a charity of your choice, and

377
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 3: he was personally offering three hundred dollars. They're offering a

378
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,880
Speaker 3: go pro that he could work, that he could wear

379
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 3: for Crystal Clear night footage, make T shirts for him

380
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 3: and his cameraman. They'll buy him gold chains so he

381
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 3: walks in style, and they do the walk two nights,

382
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 3: one weekend night and one weeknight. All money donated to

383
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,679
Speaker 3: Peter's charity. See if the guy takes him up on it.

384
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 3: There are some who's thinking that Trump set a trap

385
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 3: for all these progressive Democrats, and he might well have,

386
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 3: because he said, Okay, I'm taking over the police department,

387
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 3: I'm sending in the national guard, which he's legally allowed

388
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,239
Speaker 3: to do. The crime is extremely bad. Knowing that all

389
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 3: the progressives would squeal, And then what do they look like?

390
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 2: Utter fools?

391
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 3: They're getting angry because Trump wants to reduce the murders

392
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 3: in Washington, DC. Say that slowly. Trump wants to reduce

393
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 3: the murders in Washington, d C. And you have all

394
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:27,639
Speaker 3: these Democratic progressive legislators and Democratic media members screaming, bloody

395
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:32,640
Speaker 3: murder boy. Can't have that. You can't lower the murder rate.

396
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 3: What are you trying to do here? Lowering the murder rate?

397
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 3: It means less people dead, less people getting shot in

398
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 3: the head. What are you crazy? But if that's the

399
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:48,160
Speaker 3: position you want to take, go ahead, good campaign point.

400
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 2: We come back stupidest.

401
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 3: Selfie ever involving an elephant and the guy got what

402
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 3: was coming.

403
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 4: You're listening to Cobels on demand from KFI AM.

404
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 3: Six forty moistline for Friday. We got some vacancy. He's

405
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 3: eight seven seven moist eighty six eight seven seven moist

406
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 3: steady six or you usually talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app.

407
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 3: The following is a true story. I know, I saw

408
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 3: the video, I saw the photos. It's in the Daily Mail.

409
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 3: In fact, you might want to look yourself because it

410
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:30,359
Speaker 3: is highly entertaining. There was a man from India. His

411
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 3: last name is Bossa Varaju. They don't have his first name,

412
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 3: it's just an initial initial R, so we'll call him Bassavaraju.

413
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 3: He's a tourist from another part of India and he

414
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 3: was visiting a temple near Karnataka on Sunday and he

415
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:59,919
Speaker 3: saw elephant. And India has lots of elephants, thirty thousand

416
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 3: wild elephants, more than any other country and it had

417
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 3: it has sixty percent of the world's entire Asian elephant population.

418
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 3: And you see them, I guess, all over the place,

419
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 3: and tourists run out of their cars and try to

420
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 3: take photos with them. And that's what happened to That's

421
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 3: what this guy, Bassa Varaju did. He walked into a

422
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 3: restricted forest area he was trespassing. He saw the wild

423
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,920
Speaker 3: elephant and he went up close and tried to take

424
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 3: a selfie. The animal was minding its own business at

425
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 3: the side of the road, eating carrots. Elephant eating carrots,

426
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 3: and this fool runs up to the elephant and I guess,

427
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 3: turns around and holds out his camera well. According to

428
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:57,160
Speaker 3: a bystander named Daniel Osorio, the elephant became provoked by

429
00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:01,680
Speaker 3: the camera flash, got agitated, and on video you could

430
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 3: see the elephant raising his trunk and charging across a road,

431
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:08,919
Speaker 3: chasing Buzzavarju.

432
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:12,640
Speaker 2: It is so funny.

433
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 3: So bassa Arju is trying to escape, but he falls

434
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 3: flat on his face right on the asphalt of the road.

435
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,880
Speaker 3: The elephant caught up with him in seconds and started

436
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 3: stomping on him repeatedly. The attack was so forceful it

437
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 3: tore off the man's trousers and underwear, and if you

438
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 3: look at the photo, you see him lying on the

439
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 3: road on his side with his rear end exposed full moon.

440
00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 3: The elephant hovered over Basavarajou for a moment and then

441
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:05,919
Speaker 3: trotted back into the forest. Now Bassa Varju survived the

442
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 3: attack but was rushed to the hospital. Apparently he does

443
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 3: have severe injuries. So I guess we're supposed to feel

444
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:18,199
Speaker 3: sorry for him. I what a dope is he going

445
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 3: to sue? If this was LA, he'd sue and probably

446
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 3: get fifty two million dollars. They did find him twenty

447
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 3: five thousand rupees rupees are not worth much. That's only

448
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 3: two hundred and eighty five in US dollars trespassing and

449
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,879
Speaker 3: provoking wildlife and he has to record a video confession

450
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,920
Speaker 3: and admit that his actions were the result of ignorance

451
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 3: regarding wildlife safety rules?

452
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 2: Do you need to know wildlife safety rules?

453
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 3: Do you need to know them to not walk up

454
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,119
Speaker 3: to a elephant and take a selfie and flash a

455
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 3: camera in the elephant's face. I mean that has to

456
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 3: you have to go to a class that has to

457
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 3: be written down. In India, a lot of people think

458
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:04,120
Speaker 3: wild animals well, provoking wild animals should be treated as

459
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 3: a criminal offense.

460
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:08,120
Speaker 2: I think he got justice.

461
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,880
Speaker 3: I think when you end up getting stomped repeatedly by

462
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 3: an elephant hoof, I think everything everything works out there.

463
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:20,120
Speaker 2: You could see this. You got to see.

464
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 3: The photos and the video of him running away from

465
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 3: the elephant and then ending up on the road, stomped

466
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,920
Speaker 3: with his rear end exposed to the world. I mean,

467
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 3: that is the dumbest guy on the planet. Conway's up next.

468
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,400
