1 00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:02,200 Speaker 1: Can't. I am six forty. 2 00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:05,439 Speaker 2: You're listening to the John Cobel Podcast on the iHeartRadio 3 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 2: app on the radio from one until four. Then after 4 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:15,400 Speaker 2: four o'clock John Cobel Show on demand you could listen 5 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:16,280 Speaker 2: to what you missed. 6 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:23,640 Speaker 1: Oh thank you that makes me happy. 7 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 2: Yesterday we played a clip from the San Francisco Supervisor 8 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 2: Dean Preston. It is fascinating how people up there put 9 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 2: up with the Tenderloin district for years and years, literally 10 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 2: thousands of drug addicts. It's an open air drug market 11 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 2: that stretches for many blocks, and it's almost all men, 12 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 2: and they're busy injecting heroines, starting meth. 13 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 1: Fentinyl. 14 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 2: The fentinyl has xylezene in it, which causes. 15 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 1: Their bodies to rot. They're also. 16 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 2: You see these people in the street and at some 17 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 2: point they become like street sculpture. They're stiff, slightly tilted 18 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,559 Speaker 2: as if they're going to fall, but they don't quite 19 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 2: tip over completely, and you know, their brains are destroyed, 20 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,559 Speaker 2: and you know, one day they overdose and I guess 21 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 2: somebody zips them up in a body bag and on 22 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 2: on on with the day, and there's thousands of them 23 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 2: and Dean Preston is the supervisor and you may be 24 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,839 Speaker 2: shocked to find out that he's a full blown admitted socialist. 25 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,559 Speaker 2: And the other day in public he actually he said 26 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: this in a British News documentary. Dean Preston says, it's 27 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 2: the whole drug addiction public, open air market issue is 28 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 2: because of capitalism. 29 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: Listen to the clip. 30 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 3: I think what you're seeing in the tenorlan is absolutely 31 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 3: the result of capitalism and what happens in capitalism to 32 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 3: the people at the bottom run capitalism. 33 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 2: Okay, we're going to talk to Richie Greenberg. Now, we've 34 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 2: had him on the show a few times. Richie has 35 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 2: run for mayor of San Francisco and shockingly has not 36 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 2: won yet. I can't imagine why. I guess because he 37 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 2: hasn't declared himself a socialist and hasn't declared capitalism the 38 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: cause of an open air drug market and thousands of 39 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 2: drug addicts wander in the streets. 40 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: Richie, how are you hey? 41 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 4: Thanks for having me. I'm doing really great. 42 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 2: The people in San Francisco, do they believe what Dean 43 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 2: Preston believes? 44 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 4: Absolutely yes, in certain segments. So you know, we have 45 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:56,639 Speaker 4: these these district elections, and Dean Preston is the supervisor 46 00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 4: of District five, and those are the people. Those are 47 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 4: the voters that get to vote him in or anyone 48 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 4: else like him or whoever in. So it's not the 49 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 4: whole city, it's not even the quarter of the city. 50 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 4: It's just his district. And he was elected in twenty 51 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 4: nineteen running on this left wing kind of platform. But 52 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 4: you know, once he got elected, he goes he's further 53 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 4: left and off the rails and over the cliff and 54 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 4: all the different ways of putting it. But you know, 55 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 4: he won election under the rank choice of voting mechanism, 56 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 4: and when all the said and done, he only won 57 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 4: by one hundred and eighty five votes to a more 58 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 4: moderate center of Democrat. They're all Democrats everyone in San Francisco. 59 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 4: They're elected or appointed in the various government agencies. Everyone's 60 00:03:54,520 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 4: a Democrats, whatever flavor across the spectrum can be. But 61 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 4: there's no there's no Libertarians, no Greens, no Republicans, conservative, 62 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 4: it's all him. And so this actually makes a pretty 63 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 4: good case why we need to maybe get rid of 64 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 4: ranked choice voting and get rid of returned back to 65 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 4: at large city wide elections for supervisors because we have 66 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 4: this complete jerk, the schmuck of a guy A Putts 67 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:34,919 Speaker 4: being president, who even though he is elected by one 68 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 4: district and supposedly represents the sentiment of one district, we 69 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 4: all have to suffer with him in city Hall and 70 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 4: all of our taxes are going in some way to 71 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 4: pay his salary. 72 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 2: Well, the people in his district, they must be unhappy 73 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 2: with what's going on. I mean it's literally thousands. He 74 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 2: was a zombiefided drug addicts. That's not an exaggeration. 75 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 4: No, now here's here's very interesting. What happened He as 76 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 4: District five, right, If you look at a map of 77 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 4: District five, it was uh redrawn when they did the 78 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 4: redistrict thing a couple of years ago. So where he was, 79 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 4: or partially was as the district was drawn, has been 80 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 4: expanded to his He's not so happy. But then it 81 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 4: included the Tenderloin but not before, so in the middle 82 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 4: of his here being the supervisor. Now he inherits, in 83 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 4: a sense, the problem of the Tenderloin when it used 84 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 4: to be a different area. And that's not making him happy. 85 00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 4: But for sure, all of those voters that are in 86 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 4: that part of his district are going to in a 87 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 4: tidal wave. They're going to vote against him next year. 88 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 4: He's up for election next year. 89 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: I was going to say, are there regular people living 90 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: in this Tenderloin district? 91 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, actually it's one of the most dense people per 92 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 4: square per square mile section of San Francisco and has 93 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 4: a high number of children. Actually really and yeah, yeah 94 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 4: it does. And there are videos you could see some 95 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 4: of the citizen journalists and activists that myself within the 96 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 4: last year or so, this guy named Richie Wynn. He 97 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 4: caught kids, school kids getting off a bus and having 98 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 4: to walk through and over and around so these zombiefied 99 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 4: drug addicts brawled out or as you were alluding to 100 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 4: on fentanyl, you kind of do a hunched over fold 101 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 4: where you don't move. That's that's called We call it 102 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 4: the empty fold, is what we called it. So yeah, 103 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 4: that area of the Tenderloin also has most of the 104 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 4: cities live like off Broadway theaters, and you know, it's 105 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 4: a big problem. And those are the new constituents and 106 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 4: new voters that he didn't have before that are going 107 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 4: to throw him out in a landslide. But there's one 108 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 4: key problem. There are a lot of people that are 109 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 4: raising money. There's organizations that are being put together now, 110 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 4: and some of these tech billionaires are saying, we're donating 111 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 4: one hundred thousand, five hundred thousand, We're raising millions to 112 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 4: throw this guy out next year. But there's no credible 113 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 4: opposition to him. There's no one right now there's running 114 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 4: against him that could win. Really, yeah, really that is 115 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 4: the big problem. 116 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: And why do you think that is? 117 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 4: Well, Either, I mean, it's not easy to run for office, 118 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 4: you know, take it from me. It's not easy to 119 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 4: be either conservative or formerly. When I run as a Republican, 120 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 4: you get you know, you get beat up. 121 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 2: But but I mean just a moderate Democrat, No, just 122 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 2: just a person who's not even political, somebody who says 123 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 2: that this is no way to live, This is too disgusting. 124 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 4: To continue, right, Exactly. 125 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 2: It's not a political statement to say this is too disgusting. 126 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 4: Definitely not a political statement. But it does take some hooks. 127 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 4: But it does take a lot of nerve to go 128 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 4: out there and be on camera and to confront people 129 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 4: like Preston, Dean Preston. You know, Preston has a solid 130 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 4: core of not only voters, but financial backers, and why do. 131 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 1: They why do they want you know, why do they 132 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 1: want that? Though? 133 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 2: Why would they spend money and organize for that? And 134 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 2: there's nobody who wants to spend money and organized for 135 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 2: organized for normal life. 136 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 4: Again, so you have this philosophy that if things are 137 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 4: going wrong in the city, that's because there's not enough 138 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:13,679 Speaker 4: far left progressives that are in office. I'm serious, that's 139 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 4: what they think. And so that's why you have people 140 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:22,199 Speaker 4: like being Preston who who is a socialist the d 141 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 4: essay and if you go to their website, part of 142 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 4: what they their philosophy is is they want to install 143 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 4: socialism into our society. It's right there. I'm not exaggerated. 144 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: Oh I've read it. 145 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 4: We know, right. 146 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 2: We have three Democratic Socialists on the La City Council 147 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 2: and the city controller is a socialist and they're insane 148 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 2: and this is what they want to bring to La. 149 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. And it's it's a shame because 150 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 4: I moved here to San Francisco about twenty two years 151 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 4: ago from La. I used to live in Sherman Oaks 152 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 4: in the Valley, and I don't call things being like 153 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,319 Speaker 4: this the way they are now in Los Angeles. I 154 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 4: thought it was more of a unique San Francisco problem, 155 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 4: but just to see that this is also what's happened 156 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 4: to La really breaks my heart because this is not 157 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 4: what it used to be like there. 158 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 2: They they really want to undermine the capitalist system. Our 159 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 2: way of life are our peaceful existence. They want to 160 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 2: destroy it. 161 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 4: Yes, because you have people like him and any of 162 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 4: his allies and people who he either campaigned with or 163 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 4: endorsed or donated to or are endorsed by organizations such 164 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,959 Speaker 4: as the d Essay and the Workers Party, the Working 165 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 4: Families Party and San Francisco Rising Parties, all of these 166 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 4: different groups and organizations that are who knows how many 167 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 4: people are actually part of it. But you know they 168 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 4: want they want to make things socialists, they want to 169 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 4: remove capitalism. But you know, we've got to say to 170 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 4: mister with mister Preston that you know, why is he 171 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,079 Speaker 4: if things are so bad and he's calling himself a socialist, 172 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 4: why is he actually embracing capitalism?

Two Venezuelan men were at the door. They 220 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 2: needed help, but we're looking for a place to sleep. 221 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 2: Next night the men were back.

Eventually, 344 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 2: Eventually there's going to be backlash. 345 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 6: Ah. 346 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 1: Here's another. 347 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 2: Weird story from woke World. A Seattle high school is 348 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 2: dealing with an angry parent her tenth grade son was 349 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 2: marked wrong on his quiz. This was a true or 350 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 2: false quiz understanding gender versus sex. The question was sure 351 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 2: or false men only have penises and only women can 352 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 2: get pregnant. He wrote true and failed. That portion of 353 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 2: the quizz quiz included questions about they then pronouns, and 354 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 2: the idea of gender as a construct. 355 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: So he actually true false. 356 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 2: Only menim penises, he writes true, And it's like, I'm 357 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 2: sorry you failed. In case you're wondering, you see these 358 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 2: people in the streets, screaming like lunatics. 359 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 1: You see where this starts. 360 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 2: I mean it's in high school, in tenth grade, so 361 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 2: it's four years of high school, four years of college. 362 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 2: And I think this now is going on in the 363 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 2: elementary schools, so you could see, I mean, most of 364 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 2: my friends, their kids have come home from college and 365 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 2: they have all these whack job ideas that they're laying 366 00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 2: on their parents. 367 00:24:58,720 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 1: And it's stuff like this. 368 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 2: You know, if you say something like no, just men 369 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 2: have penises at holiday dinner, there's a fistfight and all 370 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 2: the parents talk about it, but they talk about it 371 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:16,919 Speaker 2: in hush tones. Everyone's afraid of everyone's afraid of getting, 372 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 2: you know, their kids mad. Nobody wants to stand up 373 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 2: and say no, really the guys that had the penises, 374 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 2: thank you.

They want 379 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 2: the bombing to stop in Gaza. I guess they want 380 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 2: their fellow Jews to be murdered in Israel. 381 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't believe that group is what it 382 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: says it is anyway. 383 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:09,120 Speaker 2: So Kamala Harris was giving a holiday party speech and 384 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:14,160 Speaker 2: she gets interrupted by a state representative, a Democrat, who 385 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:15,360 Speaker 2: wants a cease fire. 386 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:43,719 Speaker 1: In the Middle East.

There 406 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 2: was a supervisor of San Francisco, Dean Preston this week. 407 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:10,440 Speaker 2: Now Dean Preston's district includes the notorious Tenderloin neighborhood where 408 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 2: you have no exaggeration, go look it up yourself. Thousands 409 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 2: of drug addicts, open air drug market, people injecting heroin 410 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 2: fentin il laced with xy lazine, and they come to 411 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 2: a rigid stop in mid step. They become street sculptures 412 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 2: and they start to tilt a little bit. They never 413 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 2: fall over, They just tilt and their bodies free up 414 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 2: from freeze up from the fentanyl, and they got math, 415 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 2: and they got people running around screaming and shirtless, and 416 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 2: you know they terrorize. God forbid you stop at a 417 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 2: traffic light there. Holy Anyway, San Francisco has become a 418 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 2: national symbol of decay. It's become a disgusting cesspol and 419 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 2: everybody knows this, and now it is hurt. The San 420 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 2: Francisco Giants Buster Posey All Star. Someday he'll be in 421 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame. On three World Series teams for 422 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 2: the Giants. He's given an interview to The Athletic, which 423 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 2: is a major sports publication online and He told The 424 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 2: Athletic that the crime and drugs in San Francisco are 425 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 2: affecting the team's pursuit of free agents and Otane specifically, 426 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 2: he said, this is a quote. Something I think is noteworthy, 427 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 2: something that unfortunately keeps popping up from players and even 428 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 2: the players' wives, is that there is uneasiness with the 429 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 2: city itself as far as the state of the city, 430 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 2: with crime and with drugs. Whether that's completely fair or not, 431 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 2: perception is reality. It's a frustrating cycle, not just with baseball. 432 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 2: Baseball is secondary to life and important things in life, 433 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 2: but as far as free agent pursuit goes, I think 434 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 2: it does affect things. There were members of Shoheo Tani's 435 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 2: camp there was reservation with the state of the city 436 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 2: because it turns out the Dodgers offered I'm sorry, the 437 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 2: Giants offered almost exactly the same deal as the Dodgers. 438 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 2: Both were offering about seven hundred million dollars, both were 439 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 2: willing to defer about six hundred and eighty million dollars 440 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 2: in that paid to future years, and even the president 441 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 2: of Baseball Operations farhand Zaidi acknowledge there are problems with 442 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 2: how the players perceived the city. It's not a perception, 443 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 2: it's the reality. I love how people try to hide 444 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 2: behind Well, well, the perception is the perception is the reality. 445 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: No, the reality is the reality. Okay. 446 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 7: I was reading an article where Zeidi was talking about 447 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 7: this whole idea about players not wanting to come to 448 00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,959 Speaker 7: San Francisco and all that anxiety. Said that he had 449 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 7: suggested to Otani's camp like part of their meeting and 450 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 7: pitch to Otani was going to be a tour of 451 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 7: San Francisco and look at areas of real estate where 452 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 7: he could live in the area and all of that, 453 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 7: and Otani's camp completely shut that down. 454 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 1: I was like, no, we're just staying at the stadium. Yeah, 455 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: we don't want to tour that. We don't want to 456 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 1: risk our lives. Well, I've been to Tokyo. 457 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 2: I went there for a week some years ago at 458 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 2: the family There is absolutely no disorder at all. There 459 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 2: aren't There's no crime that we could see. There were 460 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 2: no homeless people in the street, there was nobody doing drugs. 461 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 2: Everything was this prestige. A random cab driver you stop 462 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 2: in Tokyo, he picks you up. He's wearing white gloves, 463 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 2: and he's he's good humored. He immediately started talking about 464 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,239 Speaker 2: sites we want to see opens the door for you, 465 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 2: closes the door for you, and the white gloves is 466 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 2: what struck me. 467 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 7: There were stories that coming out of the World Cup 468 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 7: last summer about the Japanese team cleaning up the locker 469 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 7: room after they had lost or after the game was over. 470 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 7: They had cleaned up the locker room before the janitors 471 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 7: could even get into the locker room. 472 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 1: Yeah. 473 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 2: No, they don't want to deal with this, Zaidi said. 474 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 2: We're doing our research on free agents, and we find 475 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 2: that players aren't really that happy even coming to town 476 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 2: for a three game series. They're not going to be 477 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 2: that excited to play there for a long time. So 478 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 2: if the Giants sucked this year, you could blame it 479 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 2: on all the vagrants and drug addicts that the politicians allow. 480 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 1: Conway's here. Hey, now, do you remember Reggie Jackson. 481 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,479 Speaker 6: One said he wanted to be traded to Cleveland, and 482 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 6: they're like, Cleveland, Why would you be trade to Cleveland? 483 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 6: He goes, so I never have to make another road 484 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 6: trip there.
