00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,360
Speaker 1: Run from one to four every day, and then after

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: four o'clock you can hear us on the podcast on

00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:08,480
Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app John and kennon demand. Yeah, and you

4
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:11,000
Speaker 1: can use the iHeartRadio app to connect to the Moist line.

5
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: It's there, it's waiting their openings. Get in there for

Speaker 1: seven eighty eight six. Well, it's time to check in

10
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 1: on Mayor Bess Eddie. She had a big event yesterday.

11
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 1: Somebody from the Biden administration came to town, a guy

12
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:41,320
Speaker 1: with the Interagency Council on Homelessness. You like that title interagency?

13
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 1: What does he do all day? He's supposed to be

14
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 1: the go between between like HUD and other agencies to

15
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:52,560
Speaker 1: coordinate homeless help, I guests, Interagency Council. Anyway, he came

16
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 1: and he toured with her and ABC seven reporter Josh

17
00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: Haskell put together this pretty happy story for Karen Bass.

18
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: Let's listen. Nearly thirty thousand people live on the streets

19
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: of Los Angeles more than any other city. No, no, no,

20
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: I want to cut number eight. It's a very exciting

21
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:21,039
Speaker 1: time because people are very thankful to be leaving the streets.

22
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is stepping up efforts to

23
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: house the homeless through her inside Safe program. In less

24
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,680
Speaker 1: than two months, inside Safe has moved two hundred forty

25
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 1: seven unhoused into temporary shelter at motels, and last week,

26
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 1: forty of those in motels were placed into permanent housing.

27
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,559
Speaker 1: The city has over forty one thousand homeless, so there's

28
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: a long way to go. And on Tuesday, Bass acknowledged

29
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: some of the challenges, including complaints about the conditions at

30
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: one of the motels. We did have a problem recently

31
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: with one of the motels. You know, it is challenging.

32
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: We've been fortunate in the sense that we've been able

33
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: to find motels, but we need so many more rooms

34
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: than that. The other thing that's challenging is is that

35
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 1: not in every council district are their motels. So we

36
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 1: don't want to ship people from one end of the

37
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: community to the next, or not keep them. Stop stop stop.

38
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: John calls a timeout. Oh, what do you mean you

39
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: don't want to ship people from one side of the

40
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: community is their community too. Just because they're on house

41
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: doesn't mean they don't belong there. Like in Venice, they

42
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: don't have a house. By definition, they don't have a community.

43
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: You have to live inside a house to be part

44
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 1: of a community. They adopted the community from the streets. Say,

45
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: most of these people came from out of state. They

46
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: left their community two thousand miles behind them. This is

47
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 1: such a load of steaming horse mareneur. This is another

48
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: wall we face. This crowd believes that just because you

49
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: PLoP down on that corner, you are now a member

50
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 1: of this community and we're gonna house you there. And

51
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 1: the word challenging. No, I don't want to it's challenging.

52
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 1: Oh gee, you didn't know there weren't enough empty motel

53
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 1: rooms in the city to house forty thousand plus homeless.

54
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: You didn't know that, all right, So challenging. We don't

55
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: have enough all And you know, someone tells lining up

56
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 1: to turn themselves over from homeless housing, and what's that

57
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: got to do to their business? Why would you do

58
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: that unless you were just renting out to drug addicts

59
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: and prostitutes. Why would you rent out your room to

60
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: the vagrants. All right, you want because you've got to.

61
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: You gotta go in there and clean it up every day.

62
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 1: You want to go in and provide room service to

63
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 1: a vagrant? Ah yeah, yeah, I guess want to slam

64
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: my head against the wall. Let's continue this report the district.

65
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: Are there motels, so we don't want to ship people

66
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: from one end of the community to the next. We

67
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: want to keep them nearby where they were were. Eighty

68
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: seventh and Western and South Los Angeles were a homeless

69
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: incament once occupied this entire block. It was cleared under

70
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: Mayor Bass's Inside Safe and it has not returned. Part

71
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: of the sidewalk still fenced off. Six homeless incamuts have

72
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: been cleared so far in the city of La which

73
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: were located at eighty seventh and etern Kuwanga in the

74
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: one on one Freeway in Hollywood, two in Venice, one

75
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: in Marvista, and another in South Los Angeles at ninety

76
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 1: nine and Flower, which was cleared Tuesday and all thirty

77
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: people living at the encampment accepted housing. I believe right

78
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: down to my core that we can solve homelessness here

79
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles, and if we can solve it, here,

80
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,919
Speaker 1: we can solve it anywhere. May Or Vass says the

81
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: key to being successful at this mission is by aligning

82
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: all forms of government. Jeff Olivette from the Biden administration

83
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 1: toward skid Row, a temporary shelter, and a substance abuse

84
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,039
Speaker 1: treatment center while in Los Angeles on Tuesday. We have

85
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 1: to address the crisis of unsheltered homelessness. Inside Safe is

86
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 1: a great example of how to do that. But we've

87
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,280
Speaker 1: got to also attend to the permanent housing and supportive

88
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: services that help end homelessness. If we only do those

89
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,359
Speaker 1: two things and we don't prevent homelessness from happening in

90
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: the first place, we will have failed. No, not heard

91
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: that before. You can't prevent homelessness from happening. If a

92
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 1: guy's brain is racked with schizophrenia or bipolar, or he's

93
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 1: whacked out on fentinelle or meth or cocaine, or he's

94
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: a drunk, you can't prevent. What you have to do

95
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: is not let him squat in the city. To begin unaccepted,

96
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: you are right, do not tolerated, do not accept it.

97
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: To tell people you have to find another way to

98
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: deal with your problem. If that means moving somewhere where

99
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: you can afford a place to live, or getting to

100
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: help you need for your mental illness or your alcoholism.

101
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: You do it, but you're not going to PLoP here

102
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: and expect us to take care of everything. Doesn't work

103
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: that way. That's exactly why we get more homeless. We

104
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: have tolerated it. Some methodic, some methodic bums stumbles in

105
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 1: from Texas and I've got to give him an apartment?

106
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: Are you out of your mind? And I looked up

107
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: two hundred and forty seven people have allegedly been taken

108
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 1: off the streets by by Bassetti, that is for a day,

109
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: since he cheats our office. And you notice in that

110
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: report only forty were allegedly placed into permanent housing for

111
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: a motel. Okay, so that's not even one a day,

112
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,239
Speaker 1: not even one a day. Do you know the staff

113
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 1: just at the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority, just at

114
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: that one agency, Yeah, over seven hundred staff, over seven

115
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: hundred people working there. Wow. And they're not even the

116
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: only agency. And that doesn't count all the nonprofits. There

117
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: are thousands and thousands of people spending billions of dollars,

118
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 1: and we're getting four people off the streets a day,

119
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: and there's probably more than that in the front row

120
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: of the first bust that comes in from Texas and

121
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: it says here, LASSA manages over eight hundred million dollars

122
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 1: annually in funding, eight hundred million dollars and they get

123
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: four people off the streets per day. If it's even

124
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 1: their agency doing it, which it probably isn't. They are thieves.

125
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: They are nothing but thieves, and Bessetti is just a

126
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,479
Speaker 1: front for a big criminal operation. The La County Border

127
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: Supervisors also announced yesterday they have authorized the largest ever

128
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: annual budget allocation for the county's homeless, six hundred and

129
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: ten million dollars. There you go, where does that go?

130
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: That's right, it's an eleven percent increase from the previous

131
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: year to get four people a day off. Supposedly, it's

132
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: for twenty two thousand housing units, along with more than

133
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: sixty million and rental subsidies to help quickly house newly

134
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: homeless people. Again, you don't want homeless people. You don't

135
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: tolerate it. Oh, by the way, a fifth person died

136
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 1: on that stretch on Ventura Boulevard and Nithia Raman's district,

137
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: oh Sherman in the Yeah, fifth person in front of

138
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: a restaurant my wife and I used to go to

139
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: all the time. As a photo I got yesterday on

140
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: the next Door app. Dead body laying there? Why are

141
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: they dying? I guess they're dying everywhere around LA. But

142
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: that's getting the attention, right, Yeah, because there's been a

143
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: cluster in the last few weeks out a cluster. All right,

144
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: when we come back, we'll play CNN took a look

145
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: at the best Setti inside Safe story with the motels.

146
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: We'll see what they have in their report. CNN nash

147
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 1: Lite broadcast Your Chance for Money is next though, John

148
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 1: and Ken Cafiam six forty Live Everywhere, the iHeartRadio app

149
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,119
Speaker 1: really challenging. All right, So now we're going to see

150
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 1: how another media outlet covers the homeless crisis in LA,

151
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: which has gone on far too long. We now have

152
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 1: may Or Bassetti in charge, and the one thing you

153
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 1: listen to this show for is that we're gonna ferret

154
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 1: through to the truth. Now. ABC seven did a largely

155
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: positive story on her housing two hundred and forty seven

156
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: people in two months with about forty thousand, seven hundred

157
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: and fifty to go. The rest of LA's estimated homeless

158
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,319
Speaker 1: population four a day. Somebody want to tell the Channel

159
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: seven guy, let's named Josh Haskell, why don't you do

160
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: the math? Do some division four people a day? And

161
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 1: now they got seven hundred people alone working at LASSA.

162
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 1: This could be me just falling for political tricks. But

163
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 1: at least she's out there and she's putting on a

164
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 1: brave face and talking about it. She's going to these encampments,

165
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: she's bringing people at might dump money she's doing. I mean,

166
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: Garcetti was nowhere to be seen, like for the last

167
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,719
Speaker 1: few years. He was a zero ever since he did

168
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: what were those the program they're gonna put almost encampment

169
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: in each No, were the homeless encampment in each district?

170
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: That planned the bridge housing the bridge housing. That's yeah,

171
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: he was out there a lot during that. That's like

172
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: five years ago already or something. But then he just

173
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 1: just disappeared, that's right. The gift baskets were for prisoners.

174
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 1: Uh no, No, they were for the homeless. The gift

175
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 1: baskets were for the homeless too. Yeah, you supposed to

176
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: welcome the homeless to your neighborhood when they put them

177
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: in the bridge housing. You're gonna come down with your

178
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,599
Speaker 1: gift basket and give them toilet tries. Right. That was

179
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 1: the idea that what were we giving the prisoners just

180
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: to thank them for their soul? Oh? Thank you, yes,

181
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 1: thank you for your service always if they were they've

182
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: done their time. Now they're out there, they're part of

183
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: the world like you are. You should thank them for

184
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 1: getting through that. People might have paid their debt to society,

185
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: our debt of gratitude should be thanking them for serving

186
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:56,599
Speaker 1: that time. Yeah, that's I know. Sometimes I think the

187
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 1: show's a joke and they're making this up over or not.

188
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: These are a few of my favorite. Really good luck, ambassador.

189
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: It's fun to pull out the Carcetti pinyad every once

190
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: in a while. So here is CNN and a reporter

191
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: named Nick West. They did a story on LA's homeless.

192
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 1: Nearly thirty thousand people live on the streets of Los Angeles,

193
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 1: more than any other city in America. Among them, Halima Fielding.

194
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: I've been raped a couple of times out here. I've

195
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 1: had a gun pointed to me, I've had a knife

196
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 1: points to me. I've been analyzed. This is bad for

197
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 1: the unhoused and for the housed who live amongst it.

198
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: I'm a caretaker from my mom and we were locked inside.

199
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 1: LA's new mayor, Karen Bass, day one on the job,

200
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 1: declared this state of emergency. She has a plan tear

201
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: down the tents, move the people into motels for an

202
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: indefinite stay, provide them services and eventually permanent housing. Two

203
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 1: weeks of Bass taking office, these notorious Venice streets were

204
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: cleared before after much safer today, much safer. I was thrilled.

205
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 1: The fact that these you know in camera sweet started

206
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 1: so soon after you took office makes me concerned that,

207
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: you know, perhaps at the back end and the actual

208
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: permanent housing hasn't quite been thought through. So you're getting

209
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 1: people off the street because it looks good. Let you

210
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: know what, though, I'm going to tell you something. I'm

211
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: not going to leave people on the street while we're building.

212
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 1: We have got to get people die on these streets.

213
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: The psychologically damages. How long were you on the streets.

214
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: I've never really had my own place. Now Noah has

215
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 1: a motel room. After decades in prisons and on the streets,

216
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: do you have any kind of time frame aus to

217
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 1: when you might move in some place permanent. It should

218
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 1: be still waiting on documentation. Stopped a second. What do

219
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 1: you mean after decades in prison? Why? Yeah, yes'll trouble

220
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,679
Speaker 1: with the law. What did he do? How many people

221
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 1: did he hurt? How much stuff has he stolen? Decades

222
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 1: in prison? How do you get decades in California? How

223
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: do you feel sorry for someone that's been in prison

224
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,680
Speaker 1: for decades? On the streets or both? Why do I

225
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: have to give him a house? Stop committing the crimes

226
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: and get your crap together. I don't understand this. A

227
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,959
Speaker 1: different universe five year old understands how to behave himself.

228
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 1: What's this guy's problem? Let's continue and I on the

229
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: lines were also moved from a van as sidewalk into

230
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: a motel. He talks people in streets and they would

231
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: walk hovers look as like you wear. Yeah, you are

232
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: listed in the wavete handle cheat me no acts, brushed

233
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 1: off the Louison, but the washingtontree hairbat would make wars

234
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: started death into my envibra, resentment in my heart. Yeah,

235
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,720
Speaker 1: didn't turn me into somebody don't want to be. There

236
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 1: is a quick pro quote motel room. You must let

237
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: the city destroy your That's when do you think you

238
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 1: might actually get somewhere permanently. That's a scary thing to think. Well, sorry, now,

239
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 1: tween is you're not going to need a tent. But

240
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 1: I think that some people feel scared giving up what

241
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: is their only safety. That I absolute absolutely understand that

242
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: we'll have to examine that. There's another condition. You can

243
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: only take a couple of bags of possessions with you

244
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:35,839
Speaker 1: to the motels. Everything else is crashed. Some are getting

245
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 1: moved twelve miles across town. Someone getting moved into motels

246
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 1: that don't have blankets, don't have towels. Oh, I'm glad

247
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: you mentioned that again. I'm tall of this. You're watching

248
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 1: something being born. Okay, So I want to now say

249
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,959
Speaker 1: to Angelino's, let's help these people. Instead of giving them

250
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 1: blankets so that they they're warm on the street, give

251
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: them blankets and towels and hygiene things while they move

252
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 1: in for the motels. Alima Fielding didn't live in a tent.

253
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 1: The first night I was in a tent, a game

254
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 1: member sliced it with a knife and I said, okay,

255
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: I can't live like this, and so I created this

256
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: over here. It's warm in here. It's because of the tarp,

257
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: and now she's very happy to give it up. You

258
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: will be glad to get into that motel. Yeah, heat walls,

259
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 1: a door, shower. Fielding is as optimistic and determined as

260
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 1: the mayor to make this work. Good luck, she gets

261
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 1: a motel room and the locals get their bike path

262
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: back there. You go see it as Nick Watts that

263
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 1: their takes eddies. He should be deported. What a nut.

264
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: He's complaining to Karen Bass that the vagrants are losing

265
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: their tents, their tents, it's their safety net, their safety net,

266
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: and that they're their setty bear. Yes, you can only

267
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: bring two bags of possessions to the hotel. I rest destroyed.

268
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm insane. I guess this is insanity.

269
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: We have to be the parents and guardians of such

270
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 1: dysfunctional people that there's probably no end to this. If

271
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 1: that's how you approach this problem, there'll be no end

272
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 1: to this. He feels sorry for a guy who's been

273
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: in prison for decades. Are you is he faking it? Why? What?

274
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: Why is that you enjoy that report for the other universe?

275
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 1: Look at this? Wow? Ohens really and the Marsians never

276
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: coming back? If they're still running that crap. They're Anderson

277
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: Cooper Show Special. They're gonna be a test pattern in

278
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 1: a year. More coming up, John and Ken caf I

00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:48,920

286
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 1: review in the State of the Union speech last night

287
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 1: you'd like to share me. I'm not talking about calling

288
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: into the motion, oh in the moistline course, right, Yes,

289
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: I think that you just said that. They'll probably going

290
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: to be a few people that will fire something off,

291
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 1: just a thoughts starter, like liar thoughts starter. I'd like

292
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: to hear from some of the Congress people that were

293
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 1: screaming at Biden they ought to call the moistline. Yeah,

294
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: we have weaponized the moistline. Yes, yes, remponizing everything. That's

295
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: our new big word. We're gonna weaponize everything. This story wow,

296
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 1: and it tells you all you need to know, we

297
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: were just talking about LA's Homeless and how they bend

298
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: over backwards and spend an incredible amount of money to

299
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 1: make a little dent in the problem. Now, on the

300
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: other end, people that could really use the help. And

301
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: I don't think any business got hit harder in the

302
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 1: early days of the lockdown than the poor restaurant people.

303
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 1: They got pulled left and right. No, you can't have

304
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: indoor die, just have outdoor dining. But oh well, oh

305
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: you want the space to do outdoor dining, guy, I

306
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,479
Speaker 1: gotta pay for the perlamit. And then oh no outdoor

307
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 1: dining either way too dangerous the famous Sheila Cule, except

308
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 1: except for Sheila Guelle. For everyone else, it's dangerous who

309
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 1: went and dined outdoors that night after declaring it way

310
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,920
Speaker 1: too hazardous to everyone's health? But the Times just did

311
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 1: this story that apparently there is going to be a

312
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 1: whole new permitting process for what they call LA's Alfresco.

313
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 1: I remember when Garsetti announced it two he liked to use.

314
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: Of course, it's outdoor dining to normal people. It seems

315
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 1: from what I can get from this story, you got

316
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: to start over. Yes, you have to start more paperwork,

317
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 1: more fees, more bureaucracy, and more months of approval. Yeah,

318
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 1: and and the restaurant owners in Los Angeles are so

319
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 1: pissed off and so exhausted. Why are the stupid bureaucrats

320
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,119
Speaker 1: in this city doing this making him get new permits

321
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: and pay more money. Why do you have to pay

322
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 1: money for permits? Why do you have to do that?

323
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 1: And why do you need permits when all these outdoor

324
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 1: dining patios already exist and are functioning superbly. That's what

325
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,679
Speaker 1: a bunch of restaurant owners said. I thought this was

326
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 1: permanent when we got this started a couple of years ago.

327
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: But no, the city, Oh boy, what a name yea

328
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 1: Yayhig Kahitian La City Planning chief External affairs officers, Well

329
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: old yayheg. It's Yeghig. Yeghig ought to get his beak

330
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: out of all these restaurants business. What's he doing charging

331
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 1: the money? I'm assuming Yeghigg is a man. Why is

332
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 1: he charging him money? Just to exist? Restaurants will need

333
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: to apply under the permanent al Fresco program in order

334
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 1: to continue offering outdoor dining at their establishment. So what

335
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 1: he's trying to say was what we did during the

336
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 1: pandemic was just temper y. Now we've come up with

337
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,159
Speaker 1: a permit program and a permitent program, which means we

338
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,159
Speaker 1: just want more money from people. Well, he says, the

339
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 1: emergency orders are being lifted, says Yeghig, and the city

340
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: must codify this program to preserve the original intent of

341
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 1: La al Fresco. The hell who speaks like that. They

342
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,120
Speaker 1: talked to a couple that owns a restaurant called All

343
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,879
Speaker 1: Time in La Oh in Los Felis, and he and

344
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,160
Speaker 1: his wife and their partner applied for the permit. They

345
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,640
Speaker 1: invested thirty thousand dollars for decks with seating and landscaping,

346
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 1: and they opened their new patio with sixty seats, so

347
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: the outdoor dining was made helped them bounce back. But

348
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 1: if the ordinance has passed us drafted and he doesn't comply,

349
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 1: he'll lose thirty seats and have the restructures economic plan

350
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: for the restaurant including cutting staff. Yeah, so cost jobs

351
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 1: and it's going to put some people out of business.

352
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 1: Like here's here's a woman, Christy Vega, invested hundreds of

353
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 1: thousands of dollars to would transformed part of her parking

354
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: lot into an large tented outdoor restaurant cass A Vega

355
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 1: in Sherman Oaks. I've seen that place, huh. And she

356
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,439
Speaker 1: thought that nobody's dead outside that she probably has to

357
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: hire somebody to collect the bodies every day of the

358
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 1: homeless people dying in Sherman Oaks. Wow. She thought the

359
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 1: allowances would be permanent, and now she says this permitting

360
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 1: process is very expensive and would take a year in

361
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: the process. Wow. Uh yegg Hig says the city is

362
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: still exploring ways to streamline the process and they're gonna

363
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 1: put forth their recommendations to the City Planning commissioned to

364
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: consider in the spring. Wait. Wait, such a big deal

365
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 1: out of this. Just take the list of businesses that

366
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 1: have the temporary permit, cross out the word temporary, write

367
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 1: in permitent. Don't charge him any money for it. I'll

368
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: buy the I'll buy the pen, I'll buy the marker,

369
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 1: put the word permanent in there, and then go home,

370
00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: close your office and go home and get a real job.

371
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 1: Gig Oh yeah. The Casa Vega woman says a section

372
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 1: of the ordinance, are required or shrink or patio to

373
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 1: just of five parking spaces, or apply for a conditional

374
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,159
Speaker 1: use permit, which would be very expensive. It could take

375
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 1: a year to process. That's some of these owners have

376
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: had patio dining for three years without any complaints. I

377
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 1: love patio dining. What not these days it's a little

378
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 1: cold out there, like hel Fresco. Oh I do. I

379
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 1: just think it's nice to be out of a picnic.

380
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 1: Most people do. Yeah, But why would you come down

381
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 1: under I mean they do everything backwards right, They take

382
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 1: chase after business owners all the time, and yet they

383
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 1: can't deal with the dirty, ugly streets from the homeless,

384
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,680
Speaker 1: of the drugs. And there's that's the thing. There are

385
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 1: thousands of people dying in the streets of Los Angeles.

386
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 1: They do nothing to stop it other than sometimes scraping

387
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 1: up the bodies. But people who work like fourteen hours

388
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: a day running a restaurant, employing people, serving customers, creating wealth,

389
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 1: creating tax a tax base, all you get our bizarre

390
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: charges for stupid permits. What they've got permits, They don't

391
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:19,880
Speaker 1: need new ones. And one person here, what's their name

392
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 1: or last name is Navarette says this ordinance is only

393
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: zoning rules. It doesn't go into how the Department of

394
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 1: Building in Safety will implement the actual permits. We don't

395
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,479
Speaker 1: yet know how we will approach other areas on public

396
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 1: rights of ways such as parklets, unused alleyways, or similar circumstances.

397
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 1: That has to come from the Apartment of Transportation both.

398
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: Most likely a separate permit will be required there as well.

399
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 1: So if you have patio tables that sprawl out down

400
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 1: a sidewalk or down an alley or into a parking

401
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: lot or whatever, you need separate permits for separate sections

402
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 1: of your tables. Wow. Another restaurant owner found Oyster and

403
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: NASA said that pre pandemic, it would take twelve to

404
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 1: fourteen months from signing at least opening a restaurant. Now

405
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 1: it takes closer to two years and can evolved at

406
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 1: least seven different department approvals, each with their own priorities,

407
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 1: their own fees, and their own timelines. Seven you've got

408
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:26,440
Speaker 1: to apply to seven different different departments. Yeah, what's best

409
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: SETTI doing about this? She said? If we have to

410
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,639
Speaker 1: build a new deck in a restaurant, will probably be

411
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: spending thirty five th forty thousand with furniture plus any

412
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 1: of the city's fees in time. Wow. Right, now, a

413
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: conditional use permit process by itself on spending ten to

414
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 1: twelve thousand dollars to apply, fifteen thousand to effectuate, and

415
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: that does include the cost of consultants if it gets

416
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 1: done consultants. That's forty five to sixty thousand for a

417
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 1: conditional use permit approval that excludes building in safety fees,

418
00:23:56,160 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 1: other permit FEESA and construction costs. This really is guy

419
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:07,159
Speaker 1: communist Russia. I mean, this is unbelievable. Now, and that

420
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 1: guy you mentioned, Navarette says he thinks they'll eventually do

421
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,159
Speaker 1: code enforcement warnings will be followed by possible final action

422
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: if you don't comply with these new permitting requirements. Oh

423
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: this is for outdoor dining. This is so wrong. This

424
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 1: is so abusive. That's the only word. Really, this is

425
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: abusive government. This is just wrong. This is the stuff

426
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: Best said you want to get rid of. She talked

427
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: about streamlining the red tape in the homeless program. Eddie

428
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 1: Navarett is the guy we were talking about, executive director

429
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:42,400
Speaker 1: of the Independent Hospitality Coalition. Oh, yeah, we should try

430
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,880
Speaker 1: to get him on ray. Yeah, we should. Somebody's got

431
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 1: to go to bat for these restaurant owners. They should

432
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,160
Speaker 1: all be left alone. No further permits, no further forms,

433
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 1: no consultants, no fees, no nothing. Whatever you got, you got.

434
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 1: If there's a new restaurant that wants to do this,

435
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: then you know, charge them five bucks for the cost

436
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: of the printing and not for nothing. But they bend

437
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 1: over backwards. For the street vendors that sell their bacon

438
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:05,439
Speaker 1: wrapped hot dogs in the street corners, they don't have

439
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 1: that permits, they don't, they don't have to have any rules.

440
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: They takeaway restaurant business, which is I mean, I don't

441
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: want to put you know, punch on the poor guy

442
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 1: trying to sell a hot dog on a corner. But

443
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 1: but then don't get take away from restaurant business. Don't

444
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: abuse the restaurant owners. Well, why would you charge him

445
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 1: sixty thousand dollars just to put chairs on a sidewalk?

446
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 1: Freaking crazy? All right, we'll return Johnny Ken KF I

00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 1: an even bigger rush at the border. Mostly it's, of

460
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,480
Speaker 1: course Biden has repealed a lot of Trump policies and

461
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 1: has a lot of people basically running this part of

462
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 1: the story who don't care how many migrants come into

463
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 1: the United States. But there is another aspect of this

464
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,399
Speaker 1: we need to talk about, and it brings us back

465
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: to the evil corporations and business owners that's coming up

466
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:41,639
Speaker 1: after the news at three o'clock. Well, we finally have

467
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 1: an animal story for Deborah Mark. Probably not a happy one, no,

468
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,919
Speaker 1: and it involves an animal that is really low in

469
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 1: my hierarchy, I mean probably bottom ten percent. It is

470
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 1: a pigeon. I knew you were going to do this story.

471
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 1: I knew it. Yeah, you don't like pigeons. I do

472
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:08,719
Speaker 1: not do to you. They pooped on your head. I

473
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 1: did get pooped on, yeah. In fact, there was one

474
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 1: day was welcomed by friends while we're in our three

475
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: piece suits back in the day as accountants, and he

476
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 1: got pooped on his head and it dripped down there

477
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 1: just a good luck you spent any Yeah, really pigeons

478
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: or ever said that, it's just an idiot that tried

479
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 1: to come up with some bright side to get it's

480
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 1: a very discerning pigeon. Well, it's getting pooped on, good luck.

481
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 1: I heard somewhere that it's good luck. Really, yeah, I

482
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: don't think anyone ever had that reaction. Probably not. But

483
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 1: it's any bird pooping on you, or it's a pigeon,

484
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 1: it's extra good. I think it's it's any bird. Well,

485
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: if you ever lived in New York City or been

486
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 1: in New York City, there's incredible amount of pigeons and

487
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 1: they're mostly annoying. However, they found recently in one of

488
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 1: the parks in New York City, Madison Square Park, a

489
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 1: pink pigeon, and of course the pigeon got a name, Flamingo.

490
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:09,680
Speaker 1: You get it. The pigeon's dead, so sad because somebody

491
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 1: dyed the bird pink? Yeah, why do you have to

492
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:19,640
Speaker 1: do that? Allegedly for a gender revealed party. People are

493
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 1: still doing these dopey gender revealed parties where they want

494
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,919
Speaker 1: to have some big demonstration as to whether or not

495
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,160
Speaker 1: it's a boy or a girl. Remember the morons who

496
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 1: started a huge wildfire. Dying a pigeon is better than that.

497
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 1: You can go and buy a stuffed pink pigeon. I'm

498
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 1: sure somewhere or something something that looks like, why can't

499
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 1: they use a stuffed animal? Why would you die up?

500
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 1: That's just because I think what they did was they

501
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: captured the pigeons, they dyed them pink. This might not

502
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 1: be the only one or maybe the only one. And

503
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: then will you release it? And flies into the air,

504
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: And that's a big dramatic moment. You can't get that

505
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 1: with a stuffed animal. Okay, then figure out something else

506
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 1: the animals alone, and we know your baby's genet hal you. Yeah,

507
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 1: and I thought we were entering an era now where

508
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 1: that was being played down. That's right, Yeah, that you're

509
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: just you're just cutting off. What if this child decides

510
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 1: to be non binary? There you go? Well, yeah, apparently

511
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: they believe the bird inhale the toxins suspected hair dye

512
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 1: Birds are highly sensitive to some fumes. The bird was

513
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 1: already weak and malnourished. You can't paint a pigeon, do

514
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,719
Speaker 1: you think they Well, they probably know what you do

515
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 1: is it's hair dye, because some women have like little

516
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: pink in their hair. Some kinds too, I guess. So

517
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 1: you put the hair dye in a tub of water

518
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: and then you kind of bathe the pigeon in the

519
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 1: in the So that's what hair dye can do to you.

520
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: Well you actually there there are studies that that and

521
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 1: I know many years ago using hair dyet could cause cancer.

522
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 1: So who knows. But look what happened to this poor pigeon.

523
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 1: Well you've stopped yeing your hair, right me? No, no, no, oh,

524
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 1: I get a to up every six weeks or so.

525
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: Otherwise arkend or lightened. Uh. Actually my hair got light

526
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 1: from being in the sun and driving it with my

527
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 1: top down. So I just matched the color, or I

528
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 1: get it matched, so I don't really die. My whole

529
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 1: color wouldn't come out naturally. It's like a light brown.

530
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,479
Speaker 1: Oh it's not gray, No, no, I do. I have

531
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: a little gray on top yes, I do. I have

532
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: a little gray on top, that's it. So that's right,

533
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 1: I a little stripe, Yeah, just a little bit. Fortunately.

534
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 1: I mean, some of us aren't as fortunate as you.

535
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 1: John Cobalt, you don't have a single gray hair. I

536
00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 1: don't either. Actually, oh god, you guys are I found

537
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: my first gray hair when I was twenty four. Twenty

538
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 1: four four. That must have been quite a shock that day.

539
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I have some I'm only twenty eight.

540
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 1: Say there you go. I mean, my family teases me

541
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: about it because half my family went gray pretty young. God,

542
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 1: you guys are so lucky. Another half of us didn't.

543
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 1: It's just because that's my mother was like that. She

544
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,720
Speaker 1: didn't go gray. Yeah, my mother. My mother didn't go grave. Yeah,

545
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 1: your mother didn't really go gray either. So I got

546
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 1: a picture of her my phone. She was seventy five. God,

547
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:11,719
Speaker 1: my mother didn't in die or hair or anything. Just

548
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 1: never really got any grays. Fortunately, I just have a

549
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: little bit. So it's not that difficult, right, It's only

550
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 1: a little bit of diace, you bin. I'm sure I

551
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: will die of something like that, you know, some humulative damage. Yeah.

552
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 1: Flamingo apparently was a king pigeon in case she didn't know,

553
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 1: there's separate types of pigeons. Uh, they're naturally all white,

554
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 1: although they occasionally get one of a small amount of

555
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 1: die or paint. But an all pink pigeon is the

556
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: first time they got the This was the wild Bird

557
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 1: fun out of the Upper West Side of New York

558
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: that cares for birds. And after this bird was found

559
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 1: in the park, it obviously was not in good shape.

560
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 1: They brought it there to care for it, and it

561
00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 1: died after a week because probably the die not necessarily

562
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 1: to die. But what kind of it ignorant bozo would

563
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: do and what's going to happen to that person? I'll

564
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 1: never find who did it? I mean, unless yeah, if

565
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 1: somebody rats them out, let's wrap them out. Whoever knows them,

566
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 1: sees them on social media? Wrap them outright, she's going

567
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 1: to start a vigilante mob. No, that's just not cool.

568
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 1: Leave the frigging animals alone. God, figure out something else.

569
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:30,080
Speaker 1: They're not there for you to mutilate, humiliate and die.

570
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 1: Why even though I don't have the pigeons very high

571
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 1: in my hierarchy, she makes a good point. I can wow,

572
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: look at that you got through mister hardheart. Why somebody

573
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:46,960
Speaker 1: would die an animal any color? I don't really understand. Oh,

574
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 1: you know what I do see people in my neighborhood.

575
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 1: They have dogs and they have a little pink feathers

576
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: that they put on them. Now, they're not dyeing the

577
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: dogs pink, but they go and they get little cute

578
00:32:56,120 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 1: pink feathers and they they attached stuff. Yeah, for my

579
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 1: neighborhood that put like little pink bows on their dogs.

580
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 1: The dog. That's an alternative right there. See I solve

581
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 1: the do you dress up your dog? Now? They do

582
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 1: have pink rhindstone collars. Oh, but you don't put little

583
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 1: coats on them in the winter, because I'm seeing a

584
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: lot of that this winter. Lone, No, I tried jackets ken.

585
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 1: I actually did try to find a leopard one for

586
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: one of my dogs a few years ago, but it

587
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 1: didn't fit, so I gave up. I know I was

588
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 1: coming down the right road. You got her pegged. My

589
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: favorite is driving around now I'm seeing people the dogs

590
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 1: have sunglasses on, which is really bizarre, but they wear

591
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 1: them kind of calmly. They're just staring at the window

592
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 1: with a pair of sunglass. What's kind of neighborhood you

593
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,719
Speaker 1: live in. Well, it was a convertible like Debra's car,

594
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: so oh yeah, it looked really cool, sticking his head

595
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: out the window. Yeah, I keep my top up when

596
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 1: the dogs are in there because I don't want them

597
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: to jump out, to fly out exactly. All right, we

598
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 1: got more coming up. Johnny Ken CAF, I am six forty.
