King Charles the Third east a 24 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: statement I bet he thought he'd never get to be 25 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: called king, saying the death of my beloved mother, her 26 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: Majesty the Queen is a moment of the greatest sadness 27 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: for me and all members of my family. We mourned 28 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: profoundly the passing of a Cherish sovereign and a much 29 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: loved mother. She ruled for seventy years. She was ninety 30 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 1: six years old, and she had just her last appearance 31 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: of sorts, was to meet the new Prime Minister, Liz 32 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: and Other Elizabeth Liz Trusts two days ago. She is 33 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: the longest serving monarch in British history. Charles becomes the 34 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: forty first monarch in what is almost a thousand years old. 35 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: In twenty sixty six, it will be a thousand years 36 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: old and no kingdom can say that. But Liz trust 37 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: spoke at ten Downing Street earlier today and here's some 38 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 1: of what she had to say. We're all devastated by 39 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: the news. That we have just heard from Balmoral. The 40 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 1: death of her Majesty the Queen is a huge shot 41 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: to the nation and the world. Queen Elizabeth the Second 42 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 1: was the rock on which modern Britain was built. Our 43 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: country has grown and flourished under her reign. Britain is 44 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: the great country it is today because of her. She 45 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: ascended the throne just after the Second World War. She 46 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: championed the development of the Commonwealth from a small group 47 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:30,119 Speaker 1: of seven countries to a family of fifty six nations 48 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: spanning every continent of the world. We are now a modern, thriving, 49 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: dynamic nation. Through thicken thing, Queen Elizabeth the Second provided 50 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: us with the stability and the strength that we needed. 51 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: She was the very spirit of great Britain, and that 52 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: spirit will endure. She has been our longest ever reigning monarch. 53 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: It's an extraordinary achievement to have presided with such dignity 54 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: and grace for seventy years. It is a day of 55 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: great loss, but Queen Elizabeth the Second leaves a great legacy. 56 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: Today the crown passes, as it has done for more 57 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: than a thousand years, to our new monarch, our new 58 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: head of state, His Majesty, King Charles the Third with 59 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 1: the King's family. We mourn the loss of his mother, 60 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: and as we mourn, we must come together as a 61 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: people to support him, to help him bear the awesome 62 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: responsibility that he now carries for us all we offer 63 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: him our loyalty and devotion, just as his mother devoted 64 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: so much to so many for so long, And with 65 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: the passing of the second Elizabethan Age, we usher in 66 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: a new era in the magnificent history of our great country, 67 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: exactly as her Majesty would have wished by saying the 68 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: words God saved the King. And there it is, God 69 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: saved the King again. Tom Rivers ABC News joins us 70 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 1: from London. Right now, it's after ten o'clock at night there. 71 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: I'm sure it's still wall to wall coverage. What is 72 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: the mood, Tom, pretty farmer? Maybe a few hundred people 73 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: now still link ring outside of Bocking Palace. Typical London 74 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 1: night here, foggy night in London town, light, rain coming down. 75 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: People are congregating as well. Outside of Windsor Castle, a 76 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: few hundred as well, playing putting flowers down by the gates. 77 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: I guess we're gonna be seeing that. I guess for 78 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: the next coming eleven twelve days. As the very very elaborate, 79 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:50,799 Speaker 1: fine detailed if you will, events are unfolding. It looks 80 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: like now that the Queen will Lions State for a 81 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,799 Speaker 1: short period of time at Saint Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh. 82 00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: Then she'll be transported down to London and eventually be 83 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: interned at not intern but line State at Westminster Hall 84 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 1: for a number of days where people can come through 85 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 1: and review, and then the funeral will expect out of 86 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: windsor so yes, it's going to be a busy, busy 87 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: a few days here in London and very very different contexts. 88 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: But we've been through this with Diana, so guess what 89 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: It's going to be a long period of time now 90 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: dealing with the proceedings and then looking forward to the 91 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: reign of King Charles the Third. He could have changed 92 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: the name to anything fill in the blank, but Charles 93 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: has decided Nope, I'm sticking with what I got. So 94 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 1: seventy three years of age, the oldest heir to the 95 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: throne to assume the throne. So yes, another piece of history. Well, 96 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: so he's keeping his name, just as his mother chose 97 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: to keep her name. When is the coronation do we 98 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 1: have any idea? Obviously you think they had been planning 99 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: this for some time. I'm planning for a long long time. Um, 100 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: it could be as short as who knows, on the 101 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: blank couple of months maybe in the case of Elizabeth, 102 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: she was so young, she's twenty five. They figured that 103 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: they had to, if you will, educate her a little 104 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: bit into the system. So hers was many months later. 105 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: So you can, you can do them whenever you want. 106 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: But in essence, at the moment the queen was pronounced dead, 107 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: at that moment, Charles became king, and there's other procedural things. 108 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: Parliament will have a special session to pledge allegiance and 109 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: pledge their support to the new king, etcetera, etcetera. But yes, 110 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: it's going to be fascinating and very ceremonial, as I say, 111 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: for the next couple of weeks. You know, it's astounding 112 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: for an institution that really has almost you know, no 113 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: political power now has and has watched an empire collapse 114 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: to still hold the world so much. Look, you've lived 115 00:07:56,120 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: there a long time, how do you feel. Yeah, I'm 116 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: a wife about that. Um, you know, she's been on 117 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: the throne for thirty for seventy years. I've been a 118 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: reporter here for half of that and she's always been there. 119 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: You know, she's she's like the furniture. It's like, hey, yeah, yeah, 120 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: call call a house. It's gonna feel weird now with 121 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: somebody else taken over the team. So yes, it's it's 122 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: it's just it just feels unusual. It feels funny so 123 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: much when when when these kinds of people at this 124 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: level pass, they touched so many things in their lives. Leaders, summits, wars, uh, 125 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: financial depressions, recessions, you name it, and it's the stuff 126 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: that you and I have experienced her own personal life. 127 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 1: So when somebody of her stature dies, it's almost like 128 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: holding up a mirror to yourself and going, yeah, I 129 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: remember that, I remember that, And that's kind of what 130 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: this country's going through right now. Yeah, Tom Rivers, ABC News, Tom, 131 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: thanks for talking, Chack talking, Stop dating us.

If it's 137 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,959 Speaker 1: almost a thousand years, it's not quite you know, we're 138 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: forty years shy of that. She's been on their seventy years. 139 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 1: I mean, that's amazing. And I would argue that of 140 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: the forty one now with Charles forty one monarchs, the 141 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 1: three greatest we're women.

It is really my favorite 168 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: thing about that and hack in a dumpster. That's all 169 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: I listened for. So if you don't know what the 170 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,199 Speaker 1: google pool is, every year at the beginning of the year, 171 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 1: John and Ken have on the John and Ken Show website. 172 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 1: On the KFI website, we ask listeners who are interested 173 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: to pick three celebrities. Um, it's not KFI hosts that 174 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: that's not going to happen. Okay, So, um, what about Phillins. No, Andy, 175 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: I'll go ahead. You pick three celebrities you think are 176 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: going to die in the next year, and Queen Elizabeth 177 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 1: is a perennial pick. It's Queen Elizabeth has been a 178 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: perennial pick for a long time. And so you know, 179 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: she finally died and um, you know she lived a 180 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: long life, right, So we're asking ourselves, as it too 181 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: soon to look at, how many people you know, submitted 182 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: Queen Elizabeth as one of their Google pool picks? How 183 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: many one hundred and two hundred and two out of 184 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,719 Speaker 1: how many people? Hundred and two out of probably what 185 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: a nine hundred submissions, nine hundred entries probably more. So 186 00:11:55,880 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: here's the deal, Um, hundred and two this year. I 187 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: think there was one hundred and fifty last year. Um, 188 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: And so the odds went down, Yeah, because because Prince 189 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: Philip died, well know that he died during the year, 190 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 1: so you wouldn't have known that. And and you know 191 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: it's always you know, predicated on you know, we get 192 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: a lot of you know, Gallain Maxwell, you know, and 193 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 1: twenty years ago we got a lot of O. J. Simpsons. Okay, 194 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: so it kind of just depends on who's in the right. Yeah, 195 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 1: so so this particular year in the last few years. 196 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: But then again, here's the deal, Jane, it's a it's 197 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: a pick that doesn't get a whole lot of points 198 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: because she's ninety eight, right, No, ninety six, ninety six. Yeah. 199 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: I mean if you picked up James Gandolfini a few 200 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: years ago, I mean you you made some points, right. 201 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 1: What can you remember the craziest prediction that came true 202 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: that you know, like carry Fisher or carry Fisher and 203 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: Debbie Reynolds on the same list. Yeah, I think that 204 00:12:54,360 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: those were good picks. Um. One that comes to mind was, um, 205 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: I think Larry King was a perennial. He's a perennial, 206 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: of course. Yeah, but what was a good one. I 207 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: can't remember all the talk about how they were on it? 208 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,839 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but I remember we did we did. Oh 209 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: the guy from Glee? Okay? Oh wow, yeah, I forget 210 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: his name right, yes, yes, yes, somebody picked him and 211 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:24,079 Speaker 1: that was a huge Somebody must have known something. Who knows, Yeah, 212 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: I mean, who knows how they Maybe they knew that 213 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: the guy was you know, at issues. Yeah. Oh wow, 214 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,439 Speaker 1: that's a here I'm trying to look up. Sorry, folks, 215 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,840 Speaker 1: I'm googling his fast The guy from Glee was it 216 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,439 Speaker 1: was a big pick. Saw that one coming Finn Huts 217 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 1: or Cory Monty's right. Huh wow, that was that was 218 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: kind of obscure. But then again, at the time Glee 219 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: was a hot show. Wow. Well okay, it maybe too soon, 220 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: but we just did it, So thank you ray So 221 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: one hundred and two. I'm just kind of curious why 222 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 1: she wasn't on everybody's list. I mean, when you hit 223 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 1: you know, when you're over ninety, you know, it's kind 224 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: of a but you're right, you don't get big points 225 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: for that, and we're all about winning. So thanks Ray 226 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: on that. If you want to know now, the line 227 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: of succession, it surprises me a little bit. Okay, after 228 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: King Charles, then there's Prince William, then his son Prince George, 229 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: then Princess Charlotte. So this is where a female sibling 230 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: moves now into the line of succession, so she is 231 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: third in line to the throne. It goes William, George, Charlotte, 232 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: then her little brother Lewis or Louis, then Prince Harry. 233 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 1: He's fifth, which I was surprised. I thought he renounced 234 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 1: all that, but no, he, according to the royal family, 235 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: is still He's fifth in line, then his son Archie, 236 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: then his daughter Lilibet, then Prince Andrew, then his daughter 237 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: Beatrice of York and Sienna and Eugene. Oh no, Sienna 238 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: who is Beatrice's daughter, then usione Andrew's daughter, then Eusionet's son, 239 00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: then Prince Edward, then his kids. Princess Anne Okay is 240 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: sixteenth in line. Even though she's older than Andrew and Edward, 241 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 1: and even though you know, Charlotte and these other the 242 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: female children of her brothers are ahead of her, Prince Anne, 243 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: she still kind of gets screwed. We have much more 244 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: to discuss later about the royal family. We will keep 245 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: you up to date on the very latest on what's 246 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: going on. Flags at the White House are now lowered 247 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: to half staff that Governor Newsom has released his statement. 248 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: And I know you've all been on pins and needles 249 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: about how heartbroken the governor and first Partner is that 250 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: what she is? She's the first partner are about, yeah, 251 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 1: well that's always thought kind of an odd title, but 252 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: are about the death of Queen Elizabeth the second We 253 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: will look at her estate and what it's worth. But 254 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: coming up, we're going to get the latest on this 255 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: fire in him it and what's happening out there with 256 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: the evacuations. I mean, it was half the size of 257 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 1: San Francisco. How big is it now? Jane Wells filling 258 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: in her John and Ken KF I am six forty 259 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: because Jane Wells filling in for John and Ken. At 260 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: the top of the hour, we will have the latest 261 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: on this Rick Caruso Karen Bass story. Karen Bass is 262 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: this free scholarship she got to get a degree at 263 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 1: USC has gotten dragged into the Mark Ridley Thomas corruption case. 264 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: Rick Caruso called a press conference and apparently people who 265 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: are RSVP got some kind of weird statement back, and 266 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 1: Caruso's now claiming, according to what I'm seeing on ABC seven, 267 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: that his campaign got hacked quote most likely from the 268 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: Bass campaign. So that's getting ugly. Trojan versus Trojan. We 269 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 1: will talk. We're going to talk about that a couple 270 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 1: of times during today's show, because that is an important 271 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: story here, even though we look across the pond to 272 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: England and the UK where they mourn the passing of 273 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: Queen Elizabeth the Second. But the other big story of course, 274 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: is the fires, the heat, the fires. Their fire crews 275 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: out in Riverside County still battling this Fairview fire. Blake 276 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 1: Trolley is joining us with the latest on that high Blake. 277 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: What can you tell us right now? Yeah, Jane, the 278 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: fire at this point is burned nineteen thousand, three hundred 279 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 1: and seventy seven acres, remains five percent surrounded. I'm working 280 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 1: to get a household count, but seventeen thousand, one hundred 281 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: thirty nine people are under evacuation. I'm told the fires 282 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 1: moving in two fronts today, to the east and to 283 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: the south. The south front is moving towards the community 284 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,679 Speaker 1: of Sage that's home to more than three thousand people. 285 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: Firefighters are working today to keep those flames back. I'm 286 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: told the flames and some portions have reached the border 287 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,439 Speaker 1: of the community. For the most part, they're about a 288 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:42,440 Speaker 1: half mile away evacuation. Speaking of evacuations, they have been 289 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 1: somewhat of a challenge. Quite a few people have not 290 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: evacuated when they've been asked to. In fact, yesterday firefighters 291 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: have to stop fighting the fire at one point to 292 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 1: help people get out that should have been gone in 293 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: the first place. Going into the weekend, a rain event 294 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: from a hurricane, you know, nearby hurricane is a spected 295 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 1: and I'm told this could either be positive or negative. 296 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,720 Speaker 1: If rain actually hits the fire, of course that's good news. 297 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: But if this rain activity stays to the east, all 298 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,679 Speaker 1: it's going to do is create wind, which is bad news. 299 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: So again, but but again, today firefighters have found some 300 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,679 Speaker 1: relief through some of the cloud coverage that's come in. 301 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 1: From that. I've been told that's allowed them to work 302 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,239 Speaker 1: a lot longer, which has been a challenge. You know, 303 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: on Tuesday specifically was one hundred nine degrees. Yesterday temperatures 304 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 1: didn't come down you know much from that. So today 305 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 1: the cloud coverage has allowed them to work longer, which 306 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: is good given that a lot of the work that 307 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 1: firefighters are doing right now is handwork. You know, the 308 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 1: terrain this fire is burning in is real rocky, real bouldery. 309 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: They can't get dozers in like they would in a 310 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 1: lot of other fires, so a lot of this has 311 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 1: been cruised using hand tools to build these containment lines. 312 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 1: So I'm told the cloud coverage today has allowed them 313 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: to really leg out those shifts and you know, put 314 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: some work in. I may have missed this. Did you 315 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 1: say what the containment is at this point? Yeah? Right 316 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 1: now it is still at five percent. I think over 317 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 1: the weekend. You know, as I mentioned earlier, something to 318 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,679 Speaker 1: watch is going to be this rain event. Right if 319 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: the rain touches down, you know, good news. I'm always 320 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: concerned about lightning when when these weird kind of rainstorms 321 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 1: move through and then it ends up being worse than 322 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 1: good did you did I hear you right? Over? Seventeen 323 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: thousand people under mandatory evacuation. That was the last number 324 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 1: that I was given. Seventeen thousand people are under evacuation. 325 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 1: And I was told the other day that a big 326 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,640 Speaker 1: part of these evacuations, some of them are a little 327 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 1: wide ranging because of this, you know, because of the 328 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: speed these fires are moving at these days. Right firefighters 329 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: at this point in time are saying that, you know, 330 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: fires are moving way faster right now with this dry 331 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 1: vegetation than they've seen in the past. So they want 332 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 1: to do a really good job of establishing wide ranging 333 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: lines of people clearing out so that it doesn't become 334 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: too late. You know, it's always funny how it is. 335 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 1: Here's not funny. It's always a bad years for fire. 336 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: Either you have rains and then you've got all this 337 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 1: new vegetation, or you have no rains and then you 338 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: have all this drive vegetation. So we can't ever seem 339 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 1: to win here. Now. When you talk about firefighters having 340 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 1: new pause yesterday to help evacuate people, there were also 341 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: I want to get back to that in a minute, 342 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,160 Speaker 1: there were also though, actual rescues. Right. We know two 343 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: people have died trying to flee this fire, but they 344 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 1: had to also go in and rescue people who wanted 345 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: to get out, right, Yeah, And I'm trying to get 346 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 1: more details about that. In fact, as soon as we 347 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: wrap up here, I'm going to be speaking with the 348 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: Riverside County Sheriff's Department. They're the ones that are really 349 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: coordinating these evacuation efforts. The story yesterday firefighters just dropping 350 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: what they are doing. That came from CalFire, But again, 351 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: the Riverside County Sheriff's Department, they've been handling evacuations and 352 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: I'm set to speak with them soon, and I'm really 353 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 1: curious to get an idea of what has happened. I've 354 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 1: been told this is not an issue, you know, this 355 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,719 Speaker 1: is not a local issue to the fires here. This 356 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 1: is a statewide issue. But as firefighters say, they say, 357 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: back in the day, you had a lot more time 358 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 1: to get out. The way these fires move now they 359 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: move a lot quicker, and I think that's really playing 360 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: a role into people, you know, maybe not adhering to 361 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: these evacuation orders. And then as you say, and as 362 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 1: we've seen documented, there's been yeah, rescues and you know, 363 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 1: just a real tragedy. As you mentioned those two people 364 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: who were killed trying to flee Monday, you know they 365 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: were both found in a car, Yeah, trying to get 366 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: out of there. We've seen that over I don't know, 367 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: I'm going back to the early nineties when we had 368 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 1: huge fires here and as we continue to build. Look, 369 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: my house is up against open space. I have a 370 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: I don't know, one hundred foot clearance. But every year 371 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, like, am I being stupid? And gee, I 372 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 1: still have insurance. That's a miracle. I read there was 373 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,359 Speaker 1: a tire sanctuary with some cubs that they were trying 374 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: to evacuate, which it's not like trying to evacuate horses. 375 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 1: I'm throwing you a curveball. Do you know anything about that? 376 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,160 Speaker 1: Blake yeah, I am. You know, I'm trying to figure 377 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 1: out more about the animals as well, but I can't 378 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: tell you this. When I went into the canyon on um, 379 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: this was on Tuesday, so the fire had already burned 380 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,159 Speaker 1: through there. Um, there were so many horses still in 381 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: the area with active flames around, sharred you know, area around, 382 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 1: which had to have been just absolutely you know, terrifying 383 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 1: for those horses. And as of right now, the Riverside 384 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 1: County Animal Control is reminding people that they do have room. 385 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 1: I guess there maybe have been there were some rumors 386 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 1: that they didn't have room. They they're saying that they 387 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: do have room. Um, which of course is good news. Um, 388 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: given how many animals I saw just when I went 389 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: in there, so it sounds like they've it's been a 390 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: real effort to go in and get those horses out 391 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: and as you mentioned some some tigers. Yeah, that would 392 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,639 Speaker 1: be pretty intense. How does I'm imagining how is it 393 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:44,640 Speaker 1: out there right now? You've been Yeah, you've been out 394 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: there since Tuesday. There's more humidity now, um, which is good. 395 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: I mean, how does it how does how does it 396 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,639 Speaker 1: feel compared to say Tuesday or Wednesday? Well, you know, 397 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 1: actually today I am, I am, I am covering the 398 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 1: fire remotely. I'm out in Los Angeles, saw another story, 399 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: but I have been, you know, calling into the command 400 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 1: post there to get information, you know what. Good for you, Blake, no, no, no, 401 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: a lot cooler, let me, Blake Trolley. Good for you 402 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: for being an honest reporter, because people, first of all, 403 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: don't realize that these KFI reporters are out covering five 404 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 1: stories every day and you can't be everywhere at once. 405 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 1: But you didn't pretend. Um. You know, that's one of 406 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: those things as a TV reporter you get those of 407 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,199 Speaker 1: course they can see where you are. You get those 408 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 1: curveballs all the time, like you know, well what about this? 409 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: And my my go to is usually like that's an 410 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: excellent question. We are waiting for a response, which of 411 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 1: course a complete lie. I hadn't even thought about it, 412 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,919 Speaker 1: or that's a great question. We're looking into it right now. 413 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: Like I was with, hey what about those tiger cubs? 414 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 1: And you did a nice pivot too. I saw a 415 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 1: lots of horses. So good for you for being well, yeah, 416 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: thank you for yeah, thank you for complimenting the form. 417 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: But the truth be told is I am actually trying 418 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: to get all these answers right now. You know, one 419 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: of the tough things you talk about covering this remotely 420 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: is the fact that when you are, you know, on 421 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: seeing all the pios are there in a situation like this, 422 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: which is for people who don't know those are spokespeople. 423 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: So it's a lot easier to get these answers really 424 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: quickly and you know, not be playing phone tax So 425 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,479 Speaker 1: there's a couple answers I'm working to tie up. As 426 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,199 Speaker 1: soon as we end up here, I'm going to be 427 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: speaking with the Riverside County Sheriff's Department. I'm really interested 428 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 1: in hearing about these evacuations because it sounds like it 429 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 1: has been quite the issue on this fire. I will 430 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 1: just say ask them as someone who covers has covered 431 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 1: the fires here for decades, and particularly the ones in 432 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: the last few years, were people out in the Calabasas 433 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 1: down through Malibu area, many did stay with their homes 434 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:40,120 Speaker 1: because that's how they saved their homes. So it is this, 435 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: you know, you only have X amount of firefighting resources, 436 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: and so some people think, well, if I leave, I 437 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 1: know I'm going to lose my home, and then they 438 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 1: make that calculated decision is my life with my house. 439 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 1: But you know, do they have the resources to protect 440 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,439 Speaker 1: every home? Now? Maybe out there Sage, a town of 441 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: three thousand, they do. You're going through Agora, Calabasas down 442 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: to Malibuh not so much so, Blake, I will let 443 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: you go do your thing. Thank you for talking. I 444 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 1: appreciate it, all right, Cad. That's Blake Trolley kf I. 445 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 1: He's gonna try and get some more answers about these evacuations. 446 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: If people need to be evacuated, how many are ignoring 447 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 1: the evacuations? But I, um, you know, I'm it kind 448 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: of depends on who you are. I'm like, it's just 449 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:30,479 Speaker 1: a house, you know, It's just a house. Some people, 450 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: this is my house. I've worked my whole life for this. 451 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 1: I think I can do it. I've got a garden hose. 452 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: I If I don't do it, no one will. And 453 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 1: I think you know, yes, if you put firefighters in 454 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 1: danger to save you because you insist on saving your house, 455 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:51,959 Speaker 1: that's bad. You don't want to put them in danger. 456 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 1: You'd want to like, no, let me be you do you, 457 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: I'll do me. But they have an obligation to try 458 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,200 Speaker 1: and get you out of there, so you know, I'm 459 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 1: not gonna be like, oh, you idiot, why aren't you 460 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: getting out there. You're putting firefighters at risk, because I 461 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 1: understand why you're doing it, but it's not my thing. Okay, 462 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 1: when we come back, I am going to talk about 463 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: the Queen Elizabeth, the seconds estate, what it's worth, what 464 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: the royal family is worth, what's involved in that, how 465 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: much goes to Charles if he has to pay inheritance taxes, 466 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 1: because I am all about the money. Jane Wells from 467 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 1: CNBC filling in for John and Ken KF I am 468 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: six forty Jane Wells filling in for John and Ken 469 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 1: live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app It's Funny. I interviewed 470 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 1: Tim Conway Junior for a story that airs on CNBC 471 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,399 Speaker 1: this evening on the News with Shepherd Smith. It was 472 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 1: all about like, are we losing the snowpack? And so 473 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: since he lives in Burbank and he as part of this, 474 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: you know, as many people in Burbank and other cities 475 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: can't water their lawns or their yards for the next 476 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 1: two weeks during the hottest time of the year. I 477 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 1: went over and interviewed him, and he paints his lawn. 478 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 1: He paints his long green and if you if you 479 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: were driving by, you would think that guy cheating on water. 480 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 1: But if you look at it up close, or if 481 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 1: you walk on it, it's like it's walking on green, 482 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 1: dead grass. So he will be on the news with 483 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 1: Shepherd Smith on CNBC this evening in a story for me, 484 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: and he was very funny. I probably cut out his 485 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,719 Speaker 1: best jokes. Who probably won't like the way it turned out, 486 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: but that's the way it is. At the top of 487 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: the hour, we are going to discuss this Karen Bass 488 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: USC scholarship story that's in the La Times and everywhere, 489 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: as it's starting to become part of the corruption investigation 490 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 1: into Mark Ridley Thomas USC, my alma mater. She's running 491 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: against Rick Caruso, another USC alum. He held a news 492 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: conference today apparently there may have been some hacking going 493 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: on in his account. That's at the top of the hour. 494 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 1: But as we continue to talk about Queen Elizabeth the Second, 495 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 1: who has now passed King Charles the Third has assumed 496 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: the throne. But it's hard to just remember how she 497 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: was so young when she had her coronation, which of 498 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 1: course was several months after she actually became queen, because 499 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: it took a while for her to learn everything, and 500 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: it took a while for it was just sort of unexpected. 501 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,239 Speaker 1: Here's a little bit of the speech she gave in 502 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: June nineteen fifty three after her coronation ceremony. I have 503 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 1: insincerity pledged myself to your services. So many of you 504 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 1: are pledged to mine. Throughout all my life and with 505 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,880 Speaker 1: all my heart, I shall strive to be worthy of 506 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 1: your trust. I mean, here's a woman in her mid 507 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 1: twenties taking command of an empire, though she really even 508 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 1: then the empire was collapsing and the power of the 509 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 1: crown was greatly diminished and becoming more and more ceremonial. 510 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 1: And yet nobody, no family in the history of the 511 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: world has created an aura and power like the Windsors have. 512 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, if King Juan Carlos in Spain 513 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 1: or whoever the king there now, I think he has 514 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 1: son assumed and then he came back. If he dies, 515 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: I'll be like, oh, whatever, or I don't know, No, Norway, Sweden, 516 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: you know, okay, whatever. No, the British royal family is 517 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: a money making machine for that country, and just the 518 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 1: way she has been able to master over seventy years, 519 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 1: despite some foot missteps, especially after Diana died and she 520 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 1: was perceived as being cold and unfeeling, something she turned 521 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: around and fixed pretty quickly. Has she has been the 522 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 1: queen of knowing how far back to pull back the 523 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: curtain and to maintain that that line between the mystery 524 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: of the Royal Family and then you know, I'm going 525 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: to be in a James Bond bit for the Olympics. 526 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it was just she really knew most of 527 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: the time where to draw that line. Now, according to Fortune, 528 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 1: the Royal Family as they called them, the so called firm, 529 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 1: is worth twenty eight billion dollars, actually less than I 530 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: expect it, you know, I mean Elon Musk alone, and 531 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: we'll talk about him later. Well, when Tesla was doing better, 532 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 1: before this whole Twitter fiasco and the tech implosion, you know, 533 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: he was over three hundred billion. They were less than 534 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 1: ten percent of that. So the Royal Firm is where 535 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: twenty eight billion. The Queen's personal assets are valued at 536 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: a half billion, so five hundred millions. So she personally 537 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 1: not a billionaire, one of the richest women in the world, 538 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 1: but not a billionaire according to Fortune, as they talk 539 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: about how she gets paid, the family is paid, or 540 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: how she was paid through a taxpayer supported fund known 541 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 1: as the Sovereign Grant, which goes all the way back 542 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 1: to King George the Third, the Mad King, the guy 543 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: who was king when we broke away from in seventeen 544 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: seventy six, And basically the Royal family is paid by 545 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: income from Parliament, a fixed annual payment and replacing whatever, 546 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: you know, taxes he could directly enact. It is set 547 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: of the last couple of years to about one hundred 548 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: million dollars a year. Now. That one hundred million dollars 549 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: alone equals what Prince Harry allegedly is receiving from Netflix. 550 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 1: So Prince Harry, by breaking off from the Royal family 551 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: is probably a lot wealthier now than if he stayed 552 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: a part of this huge group that is part of 553 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 1: the firm now, the monarchy. And that twenty eight billion 554 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: dollars is mostly in real estate assets, according to Forbes, 555 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: including Buckingham Palace. Anybody want, anybody, anybody, anybody, Mark Mark? 556 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: How do you think how much do you think Buckingham 557 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: Palace is worth? Oh that's a rough one, I know. 558 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: Because you can't. But it has a value considering the 559 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: fact that a garage in the LA area is like 560 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: a half a million bucks. Let's just ballpark couple billion, 561 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 1: four point nine billion dollars. Wow, yes, and the crowned 562 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: state of Scotland, which I assume includes bal Moral, is 563 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: five and ninety two million. You lived in Scotland, didn't you? 564 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: I did for a year. Pardon me while I finished 565 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 1: showing vamp for thirty seconds. Okay, I'll vamp. So she 566 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: all this, You know, she's got Her personal assets include 567 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: her investments, art, jewelry, real estate, which includes bal Moral. 568 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 1: She also inherited seventy million from her mother of painting stamps. 569 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: Now Charles doesn't all automatically get this, It's just what 570 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: she specifically designated to him. And I'm not sure what 571 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: King Charles gets, but get this. He does not have 572 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: to pay inheritance taxes. Can you imagine the inheritance tax 573 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: on barrel? No, there's a forty percent inheritance tax. So 574 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: on a five hundred million dollars you know, you're talking 575 00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: about two hundred You're talking two hundred million dollars in 576 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: taxes in inheriting all that and he's not going to 577 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,239 Speaker 1: have to pay that. Don't think you could scrape by 578 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: on what's left. Look, they're always going to be fine. 579 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 1: Although I can imagine the upp at Buckingham is nuts. 580 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 1: Oh it's some like drafty old place. I wouldn't want 581 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 1: to have to live there. I don't think Cape Milton 582 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 1: wants to live there. Okay, have you finished chewing to 583 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: I'm good? Good to go? Okay, what was it like? 584 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, what are you? What are your thoughts? 585 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: Scotland's beautiful, but they don't have it as kindly a 586 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 1: regard for the queen as probably a lot of people 587 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: in England did. And you know, just there are both 588 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: sides of the story. On a daylight today, there are 589 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: a lot of people who weren't crazy about her, and 590 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: there are some really funny clips that you'll see if 591 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 1: you're on Twitter, people being approached in the street. I 592 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 1: saw a clip of one younger english woman English not 593 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 1: Scottish saying, you know, honestly, I wasn't a fan. So 594 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 1: they're even trying to be nice about it, when when 595 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 1: they weren't crazy about having a queen to begin with. 596 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: But it's they've always been torn on that island, especially 597 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 1: up north in Scotland. Yes, yes, how long did you 598 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: live there? I lived there for a full year. Where beautiful, 599 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 1: beautiful place. I lived in sterling which is a round 600 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 1: where the where the big fight of sterling Bridge happened 601 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: in the Braveheart movie. It's about it's about an hour 602 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: north if you've got the like the point of a 603 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: triangle between Glasgow on the left and Edinburgh on the right. 604 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 1: I think it's been a while free it's been a 605 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: while anyway. It's a beautiful, beautiful place and I can't 606 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 1: wait to go back as soon as I have some 607 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: vacation time. Yeah. I I visited a few years ago, 608 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:27,359 Speaker 1: drank a lot of whiskey. Whiskey and though it's very 609 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 1: hard for me to understand what the heck those people 610 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:30,839 Speaker 1: are saying, it takes you a while. I don't think 611 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 1: a lot of people understand that. So I was there 612 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: for a full year and it took me half of 613 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 1: that year to be able to understand, say, cab drivers, 614 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 1: you know, people who weren't used to coming into contact 615 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,800 Speaker 1: with Americans all the time. You really have to listen 616 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 1: closely to some of the people who who aren't so 617 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 1: exposed to Americans, and the further north you get, the 618 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 1: harder it gets. Yeah, it's between them and sometimes the 619 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,479 Speaker 1: guy was too. I mean, we're easy to imitate because 620 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: we draw our words out. It's so funny to hear 621 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 1: them mock us too. Yeah, they do this tha da 622 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:06,799 Speaker 1: da lay. Hey, guys, how are you doing? Yeah, we 623 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 1: sound so stupid filtered through them. Well, we will argue 624 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 1: that another day.
