He's the 34 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 4: mayor of alcohol Bill Wells. In fact, the last time 35 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 4: we had him on the show, we were talking about 36 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 4: how it appears San Diego homeless were being sent to 37 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 4: hotels in alcoholone, and they were trying to come up 38 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 4: with a way to limit the percentage of San Diego 39 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 4: homeless or being sent to hotels in elkohone. Now he's 40 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 4: gonna come on the show now. He wrote an opinion 41 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 4: column for California Globe California Globe dot com Why is 42 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 4: homelessness getting worse? And one thing he pointed out which 43 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 4: leads back to the good old homeless industrial complex is 44 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 4: Alcoholone's staff recently intentifight at least sixty five homeless service providers. 45 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 3: And they're hungry. John. 46 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 4: They need grant money. They need money to keep operating, 47 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 4: so they need homeless. 48 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: Let's get Bill Wells on, Mayor of Del Calaholma. Bill, 49 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: how are you hey, Joe, how are you right? And 50 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: this is stunning that between twenty fifteen and twenty twenty two, 51 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 1: the San Diego County region spent two point three seven 52 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 1: billion dollars on homelessness. It went to homeless service providers, right, 53 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: two point three seven billion dollars, and everything got worse. 54 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: I'm thinking that nobody has nobody knows what they're doing 55 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: at all. All their ideas have failed. 56 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 5: Well, I mean in confidence has got to be part 57 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 5: of it. That you know, we spent twenty five billion 58 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 5: dollars in California on the housing first idea, and of 59 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 5: course that's been a complete another failure. We've seen thirty 60 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 5: five percent more housing units, but we've seen forty eight 61 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 5: percent more people on the street. But I don't think 62 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 5: it's just incompetence. I also think that there's a lot 63 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 5: of money involved in this, and I think if you 64 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 5: follow the money, you really figure out that there's no 65 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 5: incentive to really solve this problem because a lot of 66 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 5: people are making a lot of money. 67 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, so you're referring in your own way to the 68 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 4: homeless industrial complex. 69 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 3: That's what we call it. There's so many layers providers 70 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 3: that they need to be continually be fed with tax money. 71 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 5: You know, there's a story that it wasn't in the article. 72 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 5: There was a guy that works for the San Diego 73 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 5: Housing Commissions, the vice chair of the San Diego Housing Commission, 74 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 5: and he sent my political told an angry letter and 75 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 5: basically said, you tell Wells to knock it off with 76 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 5: bothering housing first, or we're going to destroy and we'll 77 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 5: all raise so much money that he could never get 78 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 5: elected to anything ever again. 79 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 3: Wow. 80 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 5: And you know my question was, well, why were you 81 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 5: so upset? I you know what am I attacking that's 82 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 5: really bothering you? And what I'm attacking is is all 83 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 5: these NGOs that companies or organizations like his and the 84 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 5: rest of California and the County of San Diego fund, 85 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 5: they make massive amounts of money and as long as 86 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 5: they stick to housing first, they know that they're never 87 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 5: going to solve the problem, never going to get to 88 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 5: the root cause of homelesses, which is obviously drug and 89 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 5: alcohol abuse. 90 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: So you know what, it's like a mob racket. And 91 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: this guy is reacting like he's running a mob racket. Hey, 92 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 1: you get in the way of our business and we're 93 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: going to destroy you. 94 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, so I put out a video about it, and 95 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 5: I got four hundred thousand hits on it. Most of 96 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 5: them were on my side. People are really angry and 97 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 5: they don't want this to be the case. People just 98 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 5: want this problem to be solved, and frankly, it could 99 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 5: be solved. 100 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: It's really hard for people to absorb the idea that 101 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: there are a lot of looters in the system that 102 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,559 Speaker 1: set up these nonprofits just to suck up tax money. 103 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 4: Oh and they often make six figure salaries. A lot 104 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 4: of the leaders of these organizations they have. 105 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: No interest in helping. And people feel so reluctant to 106 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 1: judge these organizations. They feel bad about criticizing these organizations. 107 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: But these organizations, they truly are running a mafia racket here. 108 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 5: Well, they hide behind the idea of compassion and they 109 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 5: just say, oh, we're trying to be so compassionate. But 110 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 5: I've never thought that it was compassionate to allow people 111 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 5: to die on the side of the road and their 112 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 5: addictions and their filth. And you know, I'm a doctor 113 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 5: of clinical psychology. I've spent my life working with this 114 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 5: group of people, and I can tell you that the 115 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 5: only way to help these folks is to help them 116 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 5: get off drugs and alcohol and get them off the streets. 117 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 4: And for that you probably need some kind of consequences. 118 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 4: I mean, are they ever going to get off this 119 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 4: housing first thing in San Diego County. It's a big 120 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 4: problem obviously here to in LA. That's all they believe in, 121 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 4: let's just build more housing. 122 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 5: It's all California. You know, you can't get a single 123 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 5: dollar for a home. Was program that isn't just housing first. 124 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 5: I've got a couple of great programs in town that 125 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 5: focus on treatment and helping people, but they can't get 126 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 5: a single dollar because they try to offer drug and 127 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 5: alcohol treatment and the housing first model doesn't like that. 128 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 5: They say, no, no, that's judging it. The only way 129 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 5: we can do it to give them a house. 130 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 1: But see, I think they know better. But the housing 131 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: first idea is how they can pull off the scam 132 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: now because it keeps people at bay. 133 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 3: It's like, what are you against housing for these people? 134 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 4: What? 135 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: You're not compassionate, You don't want them right, And people 136 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: get intimidate and they're afraid to point out the truth 137 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: that their systems a failure. 138 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 5: I was talking to somebody recently about a person I 139 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 5: knew that was a friend of Gavin Newsom's and I 140 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 5: asked how he was doing. He said, Oh, he's making 141 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 5: like a million bucks a month because he got put 142 00:06:55,320 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 5: in charge of doing the prison system. You know. He 143 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 5: gives them the toilet paper and the food, all the 144 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 5: different things the prison zes and he provides that service. 145 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 5: And he's a friend of Gavin's and he's a friend 146 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 5: of the current administration DC. And I think that the 147 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 5: whole housing first model is riddled with that. I think 148 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 5: these guys are all friends of people in power, and 149 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 5: they give the money to these folks who then't turn 150 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 5: give the money back at some level to the campaigns 151 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 5: and keep these guys in off perpetually for the rest 152 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 5: of their lives. And it's an unholy circle of money 153 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 5: that goes round and round. 154 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: So it's the whole systems corrupt to the core here, 155 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: I believe. 156 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 5: So I think people have to demand results. And the 157 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 5: way you get results is you rebuild the state hospital 158 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 5: system and you give people the opportunity to go into treatment, 159 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 5: and if they absolutely refuse to under treatment, then they 160 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 5: get incarcerated. 161 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 4: Well that's why Prop forty seven killed that because it 162 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 4: took away that opportunity to force them into treatment. Otherwise 163 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 4: you charge them with a felony in charge with the 164 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 4: federaly for many of these drug crimes. 165 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 3: So that just come crounded this problem. 166 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 5: You're exactly right. 167 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: So so if we have like these, we have a 168 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: you know, if you have a closed loop where everyone 169 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: is profiting financially, right, the politicians past the taxes. The 170 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: tax money goes to the nonprofits. The nonprofits give a 171 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: kick back to the politicians for their campaigns. Around and 172 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: around and around it goes. We need some kind of 173 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: outsider to be able to break through, to convince normal 174 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: people that we're all being scammed here. This whole housing 175 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 1: industry is this homeless industry, rather, it's a scam. 176 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:38,959 Speaker 5: I want to say, so you you alluded to the 177 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 5: housing voucher program before. Do you know that the county 178 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 5: gives these hotels six thousand dollars per person per room 179 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 5: a month a month. Yeah, I mean you could, you could. 180 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 5: You could go, I don't think we have a malagan 181 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 5: for scrapscram, but you could probably live them a hand 182 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 5: beach for sus grand above and uh. 183 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: It's it's all right, So this is well, this is corruption. 184 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 5: Then I absolutely think so I used to. I used 185 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 5: to believe that it was just incompetence, and I spent 186 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 5: several years trying to explain to people why they're wrong. 187 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 5: And then I realized, nobody's listening because they don't want 188 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 5: to listen. There's so much money of all, they don't. 189 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,079 Speaker 1: They don't care if they're wrong. All they want is 190 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:23,199 Speaker 1: a system that perpetuates their their their their cash flow. 191 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 3: They don't. 192 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: They don't see we sit here discussing this and getting agitated. 193 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 3: They're not. 194 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: They're just cashing their checks. They know this doesn't work, 195 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: but they know they have a good enough argument to 196 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: keep the public uh intimidated about the overdose numbers. The 197 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: deaths continue to and then they come up with this idea, Oh, well, 198 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: the drug problem, that's just a harm reduction, So we'll 199 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: just go out there and give them narcan and we'll 200 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: hand out needles. 201 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 3: They've always got their approach to the drug use problem. 202 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 1: They always have a new. 203 00:09:54,679 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 5: Small with that too. The county, interestingly enough, that putting 204 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 5: a lot of harm reduction strategies in our city. And 205 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 5: what's what I find really frustrating and interesting at the 206 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 5: same time, is that they don't give us any say 207 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 5: in this matter. We don't want these harm reductions, you know, 208 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 5: we say, hey, no, thank you, our city doesn't want that. 209 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 5: And they say, tough, you know, tough beans, gonna you're 210 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 5: gonna get it. We're gonna do it, and there's nothing 211 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 5: you can do to stop us. And I think that's all. 212 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 5: There's also a lot of people making money out of that, 213 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 5: because every time you put in a harm reduction strategy, 214 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 5: you have to hire a group of people to enact 215 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:29,559 Speaker 5: that program. 216 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 4: Right and right to walk around with the darcand or 217 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 4: the needles and everything else for prevention, right, right. 218 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 5: And another thing that should bother you is that we 219 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 5: don't have any concept of where any of the money 220 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 5: is going. The county gets money for mental health, which 221 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 5: they use for homelessness. They don't give any of those 222 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 5: moneys to the eighty municipalities that are in their their region. 223 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 5: They keep it all from the cells and they dole 224 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 5: it out through these NGOs, these non governmental organizations. And 225 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 5: maybe that was okay, But we don't know how much 226 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 5: they're getting. We don't know how much they're spending, we 227 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 5: don't know how much overheads involved. These should be numbers 228 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 5: that are readily accessible to the public. They should be 229 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 5: transparent because it's your money, it's government money. 230 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 4: Well, Bill, it's always a pleasure to talk to you. 231 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 4: Keep telling the truth. Thanks for coming on. 232 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 5: Thanks a lot. I really appreciate this. All right. 233 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:19,439 Speaker 3: That's the mayor of ALCOHOLM. 234 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 4: Bill Wells, who wrote an opinion column that appears at 235 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 4: California Globe dot com which basically comes back to the 236 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 4: same conclusion we have. There is a homeless industrial complex 237 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 4: and it's feeding off of your tax money just to 238 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 4: keep the homelessness going, so everybody keeps getting paid.

They say it's possible. 268 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 2: Concussion running for reelection in twenty twenty six. 269 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 4: It could be lightheadedness dehydration that could come about because 270 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 4: it's part of his concussion recovery. 271 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 3: Are you buying that. 272 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: It's old age and his brain is failing. Everybody's got excuses. 273 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 4: Well, when you take a fall at that age, it 274 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 4: does get much more complicated. 275 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 3: As you know, some people fall and never get out. 276 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 1: Because you're because he's eighty one, right, I can't think 277 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: of anybody I've known, family or otherwise, like my friend's families. 278 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 3: When I start hearing about their parents falling, it's not 279 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,679 Speaker 3: long before they're gone. A year or two, it seems, right. 280 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: Yes, Because when you lose your sense of balance, that's 281 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: a sign your your brain is in some kind of decay. 282 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 4: And what do we do to test that?

I 292 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: read today that stuff like this has been happening behind 293 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: the scenes for a while. That's what I wonder if 294 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: he's freezing like this in public of course, all right, 295 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: as he's sitting there at lunch with everybody and it's like, hey, Mitch, 296 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: what did you think of that football game last night? Yeah, 297 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's called a phasia, which is a symptom. 298 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: And when you have a phasia, you have the thought 299 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: in your head, but you can't transmit it. That's what 300 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: Bruce Willis has, right, He's got like a complicated version 301 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: of that. But yeah, like, but it is the same result. 302 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 1: At the end of it. You just can't speak what 303 00:14:55,680 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: you're thinking about in your head. And so it's you know, 304 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: it's him, it's Feinstein, it's Biden, it's a fetterman that 305 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: have brain damage. It all comes into the heading of 306 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: brain damage, whether it's caused by injury, it's old age, 307 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: a stroke, whatever. 308 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 3: And people are living longer, they want to keep working longer. 309 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: That upper end of the baby boom generation has got 310 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: to say bye bye. 311 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 4: Oh this just did that the John and ken Show. 312 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 4: But they have voted to allow more gas storage at the. 313 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 3: Lise O Canyon.

He said it was turned 345 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: out to be a big mistake, and I made a mistake. 346 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: It was a big mistake. You have to acknowledge your mistake. 347 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: We talked with him. Yeah, I'm hoping that he starts something. 348 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: The Bay Area Democrat. It could start something to change 349 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 1: the law there. Listen to that. We now move over. 350 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,680 Speaker 3: To a term we've actually heard in the last few years. 351 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:42,119 Speaker 4: It's called climate grief. We're going to talk about a 352 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:43,639 Speaker 4: woman named doctor Kimberly R. 353 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 3: Minor. 354 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 4: She's a climate scientist at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory 355 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 4: in Pasadena. 356 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 3: I assume she's well educated to be at the JPO, but. 357 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 4: She's apparently sharing an emotional rant about how she is 358 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 4: suffering from climate grief due to the droughts in her 359 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,360 Speaker 4: native California, and most of it seems to be focused 360 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 4: on oak trees. 361 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:12,719 Speaker 3: It's causing her to have crying fits. Apparently, hundreds of 362 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 3: California's blue oak trees are endangered due to the drought. Now, 363 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,679 Speaker 3: did that change with the rains of the winter and 364 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 3: the tropical storm that we just had passed through or 365 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 3: is she still grieving? 366 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 1: This peculiar story, which came out of the Daily Mail, 367 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: said that the blue oaks are in danger of dying 368 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: off after decades and even centuries of California droughts. The wait, well, centuries, centuries. 369 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 4: If they survived this long through those droughts, why would 370 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 4: they go away now? 371 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:50,239 Speaker 1: Right? And it also shows you that California has had 372 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: droughts for centuries. 373 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 3: She was referring to the state's current twenty year mega drought. Well, 374 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 3: we're done with that, it's over. But the groundwater has 375 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 3: really been replenished to incredible levels in the state. 376 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: Nothing nothing lasts forever. The planet's four and a half 377 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: billion years old. We don't have a four and a 378 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: half billion year old tree or bush or anything. It's 379 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 1: they're all gonna die and they'll be replaced by other 380 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: oak trees. 381 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 3: She actually weeps over this climate grief. 382 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: Elsie under Times has one of these stories, like it 383 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: seems once a month, about people breaking down from climate grief. Well, 384 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: remember the Biden's departments was offering people climate grief counseling. 385 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: Remember that, I think it was employers at the DA 386 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 1: Environmental Agency. I think that was a story we did 387 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 1: earlier this year. I think they didn't have a lot 388 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,640 Speaker 1: of attendees, so they stopped it. But they were gonna 389 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 1: have special counseling sessions for employees who suffered from climate grief. 390 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: Here's what she wrote in an article last September. Before 391 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: the rains came, my field team learned that it was 392 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: probably too late for half the blue oaks affected by 393 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: California's drought in the region where we were working. The 394 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: next morning, I sat outside our science team meeting and cried. 395 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 3: Cried over oak trees. 396 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: I started talking frankly to my colleagues about the emotional 397 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: turmoil that is often sparked by working as a climate scientist. Today, 398 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 1: and many others heard similar stories. I am in my 399 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 1: mid thirties working with NASA as a scientist, and I've 400 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 1: already I already have five scientist friends with severe emergent 401 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 1: health challenges. They're all affected by overwork, exhaustion, and extreme stress. 402 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 1: The only thing they have in common is they studied 403 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 1: climate change. See this is. 404 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 4: Well, that's getting too close to your work. This is 405 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 4: a mental disorder. That's like all the epidemiologists it freaked 406 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 4: out over COVID took it to the furthest to scare. 407 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: Right now, you could tell these see we look at 408 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: them as scientists and they have certain intellects and talents, 409 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: but what they don't have necessarily is emotional stability. And 410 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,360 Speaker 1: that's what they're suffering from. They're suffering from emotional issues. 411 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: They're getting intimately emotionally involved with the trees that they study. 412 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,360 Speaker 4: And I'll just read you this headline related to this 413 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 4: from the Daily Wire. Pentagon officials were working to finalize 414 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 4: their climate plan during the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, according to emails. Seriously, 415 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,199 Speaker 4: the Department of Defense was trying to work on a 416 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 4: major climate change initiative. 417 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 3: I guess how the Department of Defense would adapt. 418 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 4: And they were doing this in the middle of the 419 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 4: Afghan Afghanistan withdrawal, which, of course soldiers were killed. 420 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:48,919 Speaker 5: Right. 421 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,120 Speaker 4: This is the kind of nonsense we have to deal 422 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 4: with now that these bureaucrats are given these deadlines to 423 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,199 Speaker 4: work on their climate plans in the midst of a 424 00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 4: crisis withdrawing from Afghanistan. But they were trying to do 425 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 4: both and that could probably have distracted. 426 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, thirteen of them were killed and some of their 427 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 1: parents were testifying this week in Congress gold Star Families. Oh, 428 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: I heard that, and it was very big. It was 429 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: like the one year anniverar, two year anniverse, two year 430 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: anniversary of the big Biden botch. And now we find out, well, well, 431 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: where were the experts planning and reacting to the situation? 432 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: And it's like they weren't. They weren't tracking what was 433 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: going on in Afghanistan at all. They are at having 434 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 1: their climate change meeting. Where do we return. We're gonna 435 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: have some advice for you on the John and Ken Show. 436 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: And the advice is how to avoid a postular rash. 437 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 4: A postular rash and it's as bad as you think 438 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 4: it is. Johnny Ken, kf I AM six forty Live everywhere, 439 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 4: iHeartRadio app. 440 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,640 Speaker 6: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI 441 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 6: AM six forty. 442 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 3: Well, are you a mutter hello, mutter hello? Father? 443 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 4: Apparently there was an event up in up north in 444 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 4: Sonoma County where people, and I guess this happens in 445 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 4: other places, they actually crawl through an obstacle course in 446 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 4: the mud. They find that fund. It almost looks like 447 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 4: a military training camp where the soldiers are sometimes taught 448 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,919 Speaker 4: under harsh conditions. They have to crawl their way to 449 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 4: the front lines, remember the sometimes under barbed wire or 450 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 4: other So they had this event where thousands of participants 451 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 4: did this mud run obstacle course. It was held about 452 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 4: a week or so ago at the Sonoma Raceway twenty 453 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 4: five miles north of San Francisco. It wasn't long after 454 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 4: that where hundreds of them reported developing rashes, lesions, flu 455 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 4: like symptoms, lesions, lesions. Yes, they picked up a bacterial 456 00:23:54,680 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 4: infection called arimonis. It lives in like the word in 457 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 4: brackish water and can cause severe skin reactions which can 458 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 4: range from mild cellulitis that's the red, swollen and painful 459 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 4: skin all the way. 460 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 3: To the good old flesh eating. 461 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: Disease necratizing fasci itis. 462 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 4: Yes, and some others are describing this as a postular rash. 463 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 5: Oh. 464 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 4: In fact, there is a picture in the article of 465 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:28,360 Speaker 4: one of the participants lifting up their shirt and showing 466 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 4: the little pustular rashes that broke out because they crawled through. 467 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 3: The mud. 468 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: Nicole. Not attractive pustular rash there. 469 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 3: They've confirmed at least eight cases of it through lab testing, 470 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 3: but there could be three hundred more based on calls 471 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 3: and emails of people reporting these types of infections. 472 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: Well, they were crawling through manure. 473 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess, well you'll Normally what they do is 474 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 4: they just go to an area of dirt and they 475 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,439 Speaker 4: just wash it down with water to make it right. 476 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 3: Isn't that what they do? 477 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,399 Speaker 1: But but but but they said there was uh, there was. 478 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 1: It smelled like manure oncles. So it was. 479 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,120 Speaker 3: Probably manures full of bacterias. 480 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh no, you know this is this was 481 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: Darwinism here. Okay, they need like this, We need new 482 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 1: protocols for the tough mutter community. 483 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 3: That's what the events called the tough Mutter. It wants 484 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 3: to do this. I don't know, kind of a nut 485 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 3: does this. There's a lot and then they end up 486 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 3: there or a board and want new challenges. 487 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: Then they end up with you know, necrotizing fasci itis 488 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 1: and postular rashes and uh. Then then it's like we 489 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 1: need some new rules. It's like, you know what, don't 490 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,719 Speaker 1: spend all day crawling through the mud. Stay in your sofa. 491 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 4: You're not gonna get One of the article said you 492 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 4: thought it would be a unique entertaining workout. Yeah, well, 493 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 4: some of the people have incurred five hundred dollars plus er. 494 00:25:54,359 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 1: Bills fleshitting bacteria.
