1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:02,040
Speaker 1: Can't. I am six forty.

2
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 2: You're listening to the John Cobelt Podcast on the iHeartRadio app.

3
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:08,360
Speaker 2: We're on every day from one until four and after

4
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:11,720
Speaker 2: four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand also on the

5
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 2: iHeart app. We're going to have two rounds of the

6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 2: Moistline next hour. We covered a lot of the about

7
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 2: the arrest of the Charlie Kirk murderer in the first hour,

8
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 2: and if you want to hear that later, you can

9
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 2: listen to the podcast for that. But there are things

10
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 2: happening close to home which we cannot of net neglect

11
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:35,480
Speaker 2: because then everything gets out of hand, doesn't it. There

12
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 2: is a huge homeless encampment in Korea Town, a gigantic one,

13
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 2: and it's so big they have their own tennis court.

14
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 2: I know it's hard to believe, but we've got to

15
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,840
Speaker 2: report here from ABC seven.

16
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: Let's play this. Why did you reach out to seven

17
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 1: on your side?

18
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 3: Because you know, I've seen this grow and grow and

19
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 3: become unsafe, you know, more and more unsafe.

20
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,839
Speaker 4: Sigmund Lee has had it and you probably would too

21
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,400
Speaker 4: if this is what you saw from the unit you own.

22
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: This in canon has popped.

23
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 4: Up in a vacant lot right out a residential street

24
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 4: in LA's Korea town. It even has a makeshift sports

25
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 4: court in it.

26
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 3: It's a whole community, right, There's a tennis court, there's

27
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 3: a there's a garden where they're growing stuff, there's a

28
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 3: barbecue pit.

29
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,639
Speaker 4: And he's far from the only one upset about people

30
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 4: putting up tents and moving in.

31
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: I've had people follow me or just like try to

32
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: talk to me.

33
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 5: It's like not very safe anymore.

34
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 6: They come and take packages and stuff.

35
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 4: The reason why people are sleeping here is because you

36
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 4: leaders are sleeping on not taking an initiative and action

37
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 4: to clean this place up.

38
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: You seem kind of fed up with this.

39
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 5: I'm very pissed. I'm upset.

40
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 4: One of the reasons for all that anger is because

41
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 4: residents of this encammen have brokento this street light, shoved

42
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 4: a surge protector into it, and are running power across

43
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 4: the street and into the camp.

44
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 3: Thank god it hasn't raained it a while. It's a

45
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 3: fire hazard, right, and then they run the cable across

46
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 3: the sheet and it's a trip hazard for everyone.

47
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 4: Segment has complained to three to one one, but says

48
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 4: he's only seen this encampment grow. The council member for

49
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 4: this neighborhood is Katie Yuroslavsky.

50
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 7: From your perspective, where did this go wrong and why

51
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 7: are people in your districts still dealing with this property?

52
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 5: So chey.

53
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 8: I think that the challenge comes from the fact that

54
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 8: this is private property.

55
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,239
Speaker 5: Because it's private property, there's.

56
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 8: A different path, and that path is convoluted.

57
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 5: It's over bureaucratic.

58
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 8: It's the city at its worst sort of not being

59
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 8: able to get out of its own way.

60
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:45,239
Speaker 4: The owner of the property is an LLC registered in Delaware.

61
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 4: They never returned our request for comment, but the council

62
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 4: member says they are cooperating and should be putting up

63
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 4: no trespassing signs along this fence soon, which will then

64
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 4: allow LAPD.

65
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: To step in.

66
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 4: LA's Apartment of Building Safety says it's issuing in order

67
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 4: to applying to the property owner to address the security rubbish, garbage,

68
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 4: trash and debris. But council Member Uroslavsky says Building Safety

69
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 4: needs to start acting faster, so the pressure is on

70
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 4: when properties end up like this.

71
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 8: We immediately called EBS and said, hey, get out there,

72
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 8: please send an inspector out there so we can start

73
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 8: this process. And it took a while, but they've finally

74
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 8: gotten someone out there.

75
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 1: Is that acceptable?

76
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 5: No, of course it's not acceptable.

77
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 4: As for the electors leg while seven on your side

78
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 4: was there, someone came out of the encampment to unplug

79
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 4: the cord, wrapped up the wiring and slipped right back inside.

80
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 4: Public Work tells us that we'll be putting an anti

81
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 4: vandal wrap around the street light, and Segman now finally

82
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 4: has some answers.

83
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for the help. You guys made

84
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: huge difference in days that I can do in once,

85
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: but get this.

86
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 7: Public Work tells us if it takes weeks to get

87
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 7: that wrap around.

88
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: There because of a backlog.

89
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 7: Now, we did also reach out to Mayor Bass's office

90
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 7: as well. It tells us I have sent outreach teams

91
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 7: to that encounterment this week to try and move some

92
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 7: of those people inside.

93
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 2: All right, So that's great, oh man, If by chance

94
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 2: the owner of the property doesn't comply with the orders

95
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 2: that are issued by the Department of.

96
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: Building a Safety, what's next? What happens?

97
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 7: Well, there would be with a six hundred and sixty

98
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 7: dollars fee. We asked the council woman, Is that v enough?

99
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 7: She says, no, it is.

100
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 1: Not a fee. They get charged a fee.

101
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 2: Okay, here out look, Katie yar As Slatsky is an idiot.

102
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 2: I like when politicians when they're cornered, they take a

103
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 2: big pause. If I get her clip out, you can

104
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 2: pick right and they sew everybody does that now, Well,

105
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 2: so so what.

106
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 6: Idiot?

107
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,239
Speaker 2: They've been complaining for months? But yeah, play this genius again.

108
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 8: We immediately called EBS and said hey, get out there,

109
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 8: please send an inspector out there so we can start

110
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 8: this process. And it took a while, but they finally

111
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 8: gotten someone out there.

112
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: Is that acceptable?

113
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:02,799
Speaker 5: No, of course it's not acceptable.

114
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 1: That's the other part. And and when when you when you.

115
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 2: Tell them, they have a line like, well it's not acceptable,

116
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 2: Well what does that mean?

117
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: It's not acceptable? Apparently it was.

118
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 2: It was acceptable for months. It went on for you

119
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 2: got the first part again, Yeah, got so.

120
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 8: The challenge, it's just an advantage of it property. There's

121
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 8: a different path and that path is conlluded.

122
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 5: That's over bureaucratic. Well it's the city at its worst.

123
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: Stop you're on the city council. Fix the path. You

124
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 1: could have done that many years ago. All these boobs

125
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 1: of the city.

126
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 2: Council, they spend all their time passing social justice resolutions.

127
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 2: That's what they do with their time in the city council.

128
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,039
Speaker 2: There are a bunch of progressive goofs idiots.

129
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: This should have been taken care of on Dave.

130
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 2: Well, it's a complicated paths, it's overly bureaucal No, it's oh,

131
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 2: it's not. That is a huge fire hazard. I think

132
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 2: the fire department should have jurisdiction to come in there

133
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 2: and clear that out immediately before the whole block burns down.

134
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: And don't tell me otherwise. You're so full of crap.

135
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 2: And then bass as well, they're so just why is

136
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 2: it you can contact the building services although they don't

137
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,919
Speaker 2: get out there fast enough.

138
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:24,600
Speaker 1: Why is that?

139
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 2: Because nobody can get fired, So it really doesn't matter

140
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 2: what you ask them to do, because the city Council

141
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 2: has no power, the mayor has no power over a

142
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 2: bunch of they're like like they are like slabs of

143
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 2: meat in that.

144
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:38,919
Speaker 1: Building safety office.

145
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 2: Nobody really gets up and do anything, unless, of course

146
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 2: they're having a bachelor party and it's time for beer

147
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:45,919
Speaker 2: and booze and nunkers.

148
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:48,479
Speaker 1: Then people get energized.

149
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 2: The Apartment of Building Safety is issuing in order to

150
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 2: comply to an order, to comply to the property owner,

151
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 2: to address the security, rubbish, garbage, trash, and to.

152
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: Bring again it took months.

153
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 2: You have to go to channel seven, and Channel seven

154
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 2: has to have a reporter available for that and an

155
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 2: interest by some assignment editor or producer to do this.

156
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 2: Otherwise you are stuck with this filthy, disgusting lot which

157
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 2: has its own tennis scre oh and it has its

158
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 2: own own grill. Well that's where the fires start. Everybody

159
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 2: should have been arrested. Well, well we can do it

160
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 2: if they put up no trespassing signs.

161
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: Why is that?

162
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 2: Why don't you fix that stupid rule too, or why

163
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 2: don't you ignore the rules? You ignore the stuff you

164
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 2: want everybody to ignore. Federal immigration law. Right, you think

165
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 2: all that, all those federal laws and immigration should be ignored.

166
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: Why don't we start ignoring the rule that.

167
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 2: Says you have to have a no trespassing sign where

168
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 2: people can build their own their own grill with tennis court,

169
00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 2: homeless encampment. They're so full that they lied, they lied,

170
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:05,239
Speaker 2: They lie. Fast has that disease. Arislovsky has the disease.

171
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 2: Newsome has the disease. They don't want to displace the homeless.

172
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 2: The homeless are protected in their religion. The holy trinity

173
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 2: of those who are protected by the woke progressive religion

174
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 2: are homeless people and criminals and illegal aliens and the

175
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 2: rest of us stupid peasants who pay whenever we complain

176
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 2: we're bad people.

177
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: We are not.

178
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 2: We don't have empathy. Most serious charge that they can

179
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 2: make in the progressive religion. You don't have empathy. You're

180
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 2: supposed to have empathy for the people who might burn

181
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 2: your neighborhood down.

182
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 9: Again, what if it's happening in their neighborhood. What if

183
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 9: it's happening next door to them. We never get that,

184
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,319
Speaker 9: because then that would be a would that would be

185
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 9: the best thing happening, because then you're going to see

186
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 9: how they're going to change their tune.

187
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 2: For sure, times I feel like like gathering up a

188
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,959
Speaker 2: whole group of homeless people and taking them into some

189
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 2: politicians neighborhood. Yeah, and see how quickly the Department of

190
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 2: Building Services shows up.

191
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 10: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM

192
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 10: six forty.

193
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,559
Speaker 2: Debra came in here and said, you want some almonds? Okay,

194
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 2: she did that right before we were about to come back.

195
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, hi, Vey, John wanted to know. I have to

196
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 6: just say this real quick.

197
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 9: When I asked him if he wanted an almend, he

198
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 9: wanted to know if he needed to crack it open. Oh,

199
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 9: like I had a shell on it, the sunflower seater nistachio.

200
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, because when I've had almonds, to my memory, they.

201
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 6: Were smooth because they weren't salted.

202
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,719
Speaker 2: And this one seems to have like ridges on it,

203
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,199
Speaker 2: so I thought there was a shell around it. No,

204
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 2: it doesn't look like the way I remember almonds.

205
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 6: Because how long has it been since you've eaten amen?

206
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: Oh? As long as the drought's been going on?

207
00:09:59,520 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 3: Yeah.

208
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 9: Yeah, See that's why I gave it to him, because

209
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,959
Speaker 9: he started off saying, you know, if we have a drought,

210
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 9: no water for you because you're eating almonds?

211
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 7: Is that? Ay?

212
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 10: John?

213
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 9: You want an almond, Sure, I'll try one, omens use,

214
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 9: but you just I gave you a bunch of that,

215
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 9: and I told you fall now too.

216
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 6: You are eating almonds.

217
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 2: You've been eating almonds all week, which means when there

218
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 2: is water shortage, you don't get any water.

219
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 6: Okay, but you don't get any water either because you've

220
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 6: just been eating that.

221
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 1: Wait.

222
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 2: But if she doesn't get any water, and then she

223
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 2: can't shower, and then she's gonna smell when she comes

224
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 2: to work.

225
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: Girls never smell, don't you know that? That's fair?

226
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 2: They never smell, and they never pass gas. Yes, they

227
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 2: fart unicorns and rainbows.

228
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: All right?

229
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,439
Speaker 2: Uh, this this, We've been talking about this all week.

230
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,560
Speaker 2: We've got eight dollar gas coming to California and Newsome

231
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 2: is now the East panicking.

232
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: And we had Michael Mache on the USC.

233
00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 2: Professor yesterday to talk about all the ramifications here. There's

234
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 2: two refineries closing. One is uh a literal refinery in Benicia?

235
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 2: Is that how you pronounce it? I've been calling a

236
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 2: Banetia and I noticed Mache was calling a Beanicia.

237
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 6: No, it's well, I always called a Bantia Benicia.

238
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 1: You lived up there, I did.

239
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 6: But you know what I did?

240
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 9: I remember people saying Benisi Benicia too, but I always said.

241
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 2: Benicia, Benisia. Oh the miche was saying Benicia. Okay, so

242
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 2: there was like three pronunciations.

243
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 6: Here Bantia, but maybe it is Benicia, all.

244
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 2: Right, now I'm choking on the almond shells.

245
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 6: Just choking on the actual almond, the almond crust whatever.

246
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,680
Speaker 1: They let me say that some water.

247
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 9: Oh my god, you're such a baby. All right, let

248
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 9: me google. Let me google Bantia while you're choking.

249
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: All right, you do that. I think I packed water,

250
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: but it looks like I didn't.

251
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 5: Bay.

252
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 6: Can you go get Johnson water.

253
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 1: There's something useful.

254
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,959
Speaker 6: Get me water now, Venetia. Okay, that's what Google says.

255
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 1: What was I talking about? All right?

256
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 2: So there's two oil refineries, one closing in Benetia, Valero

257
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 2: one closing here in southern California, Carson.

258
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: That's Phillip sixty six.

259
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 2: And that's going to reduce the number of refineries in

260
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 2: the state to six. There'll be so little oil going

261
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 2: through the big oil pipeline in California that it may

262
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 2: be shut down. And then carbon has some new low

263
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 2: mileage fuel carbon tax, some low carbon tax. I don't

264
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,199
Speaker 2: it adds up to eight to ten dollars a gallon.

265
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 2: You don't have to throw it at me. It is

266
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 2: getting increasingly hard to deal with her. I just want

267
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,559
Speaker 2: you to know, Okay, I don't know what's gotten.

268
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 9: Into her, but I was trying to put my newscast together.

269
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 9: I had to say to Eric, don't go to me,

270
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 9: so I can go get him.

271
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 2: Was she's yelling at me. She's yelling at Eric, she's

272
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 2: throwing things at me. Okay, So you have these two

273
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 2: refineries closing, and gas is already I think four to

274
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,719
Speaker 2: sixty three a gathering. You go to many states, it's

275
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 2: in the two seventies and two eighties. It's just awful.

276
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 2: And Gavin Newsom is trying to get the state to

277
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 2: vote so we have more Democrats representing California in Congress.

278
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 2: I am astonished a guy who's performed so badly for

279
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 2: the state that there is a single person in any party, Independent, Democrat, Republican,

280
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,439
Speaker 2: anybody would vote or agree to any of his policies

281
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 2: or any of his ideas. The man is costing you

282
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:05,199
Speaker 2: two dollars more a gallon per gas than many other states,

283
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,440
Speaker 2: and it's about a dollar fifty more than the average.

284
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 2: Why would you possibly give him more power? Why would

285
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 2: you possibly support any one of his ideas? Why would

286
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 2: you vote for him for president? Based on his track record?

287
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 2: The whole youth? Do you think the country is going

288
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 2: to vote for Gavin Newsom, if everybody is going to

289
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 2: have to pay five eight ten dollars a gallon, why

290
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 2: wouldn't he do to the whole country what he's done

291
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 2: here to California. And why do people in California sit

292
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 2: around and let him. This is one of the great

293
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 2: mysteries of the world. Well, so now he's panicking, and

294
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 2: I have to continue this after Deborah's news because now

295
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 2: the environmental groups are upset with Newsom because of his panic.

296
00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 2: He had to agree to oil industry Demandsdustry is doing

297
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 2: what it must do. It's going to pack up and

298
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 2: leave the state unless Newsom stops the abuse. So they're packed,

299
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 2: they're ready to go. Now Newsom is panicking. Now it's

300
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 2: ten bucks a gallon. Can't believe the.

301
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 1: World we're in.

302
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 10: You're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI AM

303
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 10: six forty.

304
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 2: We are on every day from one until four o'clock,

305
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 2: two rounds of the Moistline. Next hour at three twenty

306
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 2: and three point fifty. All right, So I was telling

307
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 2: you about how Gavin Newsom is truly in a panic

308
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 2: because gas prices are way high and they're headed towards

309
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 2: eight to ten dollars a gallon, because we have two

310
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 2: refineries closing. We have the oil pipeline in danger of

311
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 2: drying up because they're so little oil being transmitted through it.

312
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 2: He completely shut down oil drilling. I think there were

313
00:15:52,520 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 2: only seven permits filed in California last year. And suddenly

314
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 2: he's running for president. And how does he last more

315
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 2: than all I don't know, thirty seconds in a debate

316
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 2: when the first Democratic candidate running against him says, m

317
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 2: HAWKEM gas is two ninety eight my state, and it's

318
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 2: five dollars in your state, or it's eight dollars in

319
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 2: your estate, or ten dollars in your estate. And that's

320
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 2: what has this immature little boy panicked, is he wants

321
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 2: to be missed a president. He systematically consistently, overwhelmingly attacked

322
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 2: and dismantled the oil industry in the state, a state

323
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 2: where we used to have over forty refineries and now

324
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 2: potentially we're down to six. Trump has his drilling mandate,

325
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 2: and the price of gas I saw the other day

326
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 2: is now lower in the US. Get this, when you

327
00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 2: adjust for inflation, it's lower in the US, less than

328
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 2: it has been in twenty years. People outside of California

329
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:11,360
Speaker 2: are paying gas at prices that are at a twenty

330
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:21,399
Speaker 2: year low, and we are paying four point fifty to

331
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 2: five dollars a gallon. And that's just an average. Came

332
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,400
Speaker 2: out of lax the other night and all the stations

333
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 2: along the Supublic of Boulevard driving northward five twenty five.

334
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 2: So I don't know where the gas is going for

335
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,159
Speaker 2: cheaper than four fifty. Must be somewhere. I haven't seen it.

336
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:44,679
Speaker 2: Somewhere it averages out maybe I don't know. So now

337
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:49,199
Speaker 2: he's passing a law or get it, Yeah, getting the

338
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:50,880
Speaker 2: legislature to pass a law.

339
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 1: That's uh, they're gonna they might.

340
00:17:54,200 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 2: They might pay off Valero to keep their Benetia refinery running.

341
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,400
Speaker 2: They tried to get an outside buyer a few weeks ago,

342
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 2: which was a huge joke because no, literally nobody in

343
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 2: the world wanted to buy the Mintia refinery. That's like

344
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 2: a thirty second conversation, Hi Ahi, this is Gavin Newsom.

345
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 2: You want to buy a refinery, And they said, no,

346
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:29,919
Speaker 2: you have an extreme an extreme policy over regulating oil

347
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 2: companies in your state. No, taxes are extremely high. No,

348
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 2: they couldn't get a buyer around the world. Two hundred nations.

349
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,640
Speaker 2: Everybody said no. It was like when they went trying

350
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 2: to find some company or some nation to invest in

351
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 2: high speed rail, they all said no. You know why,

352
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:53,160
Speaker 2: because of California's political climate and all the corruption here.

353
00:18:54,600 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 1: How's it going to run for president? So couldn't find

354
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: a buyer.

355
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 2: Now he's offering Vollero two hundred million dollars of tax

356
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 2: money to run the place. And now the environment are

357
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:19,160
Speaker 2: all the environmental groups and these people are crazy. They're

358
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:25,360
Speaker 2: upset because Newsom has turned on them. They're still fighting,

359
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 2: it says here environmental groups, including a campaign backed by

360
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 2: Jane Fonda. Well, isn't that nice of her? This old

361
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 2: bag must be worth like one hundred million dollars and

362
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 2: she's trying to drive up the price of gas for

363
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 2: people who are making twelve dollars an hour.

364
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 6: But she does look pretty darn good for her aide, Yeah, well,

365
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:50,440
Speaker 6: I wouldn't.

366
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 2: Call her an old mag if you have thirty seven

367
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 2: construction workers on a forklift putting her face together every morning.

368
00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,439
Speaker 6: Oh that's rude.

369
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 2: I never got this thing about Jane Fonda. She makes

370
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 2: pronouncements we've go oh, wow, isn't that wonderful? Jane Fond

371
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:08,719
Speaker 2: is one of the reasons you're paying five dollars an

372
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 2: hour gas, I guess because she finances these protest groups

373
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 2: or these environmental groups, and then they go to Newsome

374
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,119
Speaker 2: and you know, they put pressure on Newsom, and they

375
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:27,439
Speaker 2: also bribe Newsom with campaign contributions, and some of the

376
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 2: Democratic legislators are turning on him. Henry Stern, who's a Democrat,

377
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 2: said call me born again, but I have seen the

378
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 2: light on what you're talking about. It was telling Republicans

379
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 2: Kerrent County should be unleashed Bakersfield drill the oil. Apparently

380
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 2: this local bozo, Isaac Bryan, who's an assemblyman, he also

381
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 2: wants the state to allow more oil drilling. It's an

382
00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:01,159
Speaker 2: idea to streamlines environmental environmental permit for new oil wells.

383
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:11,679
Speaker 2: Environmental justice groups have held this up, environmental justice. You

384
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 2: know who gets screwed by this is poor people. Even

385
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 2: the illegal aliens get screwed by this because they really

386
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:25,400
Speaker 2: can't afford five dollars gas. Jane Fonda could afford five

387
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 2: hundred dollars a gallon gas. So who the hell is

388
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:38,199
Speaker 2: this lady forcing the little unwashed peasants out there to

389
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 2: pay five bucks potentially eight or ten bucks in gas

390
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 2: because she says so, because you know she doesn't think

391
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 2: oil should be burned to power the economy. Well, first

392
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 2: of all, I think she's eighty seven years old. What's

393
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,479
Speaker 2: her stake in determining our future here? She's not going

394
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 2: to be around once she goes down in the box

395
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 2: we're left with.

396
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 6: It's just too harsh. We don't know if she's going

397
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 6: to go down in a box. She may be cremated,

398
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 6: she may become a tree.

399
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 2: We all well, I guess so. But once she becomes

400
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 2: a tree, look, we all leave at some point. And

401
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 2: the idea that you're trying to finance groups who want

402
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 2: to destroy our ability to drill and process oil, I

403
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 2: don't know what's wrong with you out here out here

404
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 2: in the You know, like twenty five percent of the

405
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 2: state is in poverty and you're charging them five dollars

406
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 2: for gas. Of course that twenty five percent the ones

407
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,680
Speaker 2: that are legal vote for Gavin Newsom. So I really

408
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 2: don't understand anything. I understand why left wingers vote for

409
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,679
Speaker 2: progressive stuff because all the damage that comes out of

410
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 2: progressive policies doesn't bother them. They're living in a high

411
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 2: up on their hilltop mansions, which you could appreciate.

412
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 6: You could appreciate I don't have a hilltop. You ever

413
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 6: have a mansion. You don't have a mansion, you have

414
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 6: a hilltop.

415
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:11,680
Speaker 1: Safer on a hilltop.

416
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:21,439
Speaker 2: One of the one of the activists, Cassie Siegel, director

417
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 2: of the Center for Biological Diversity, What is particularly gut

418
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 2: wrenching about this moment. It follows on the heels of

419
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:33,360
Speaker 2: some real leadership on the policies. We need strong leadership

420
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 2: from the government. This is gut wrenching. To try to

421
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 2: get the price of gas down below five dollars, this

422
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,120
Speaker 2: is gut wrenching. How much money does Cassie Siegel make?

423
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 2: Does she got some wealthy husband who can pay twenty

424
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 2: bucks a gallon for gas? Doesn't bother her? These people

425
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 2: are so These are people are dangerous. They actually have

426
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 2: the power to dismantle the oil industry, and they have

427
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 2: to a very great extent. Cassie Siegel and Jane Fonda.

428
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,919
Speaker 2: They dismantle the oil industry by pumping so much money

429
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 2: into democratic campaigns in this state.

430
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 1: And then we're paying.

431
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 2: Five bucks, eight bucks, ten bucks a gallon down the road.

432
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 2: Why and when are all the people in the state

433
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 2: gonna say enough of this crap? Because the other forty

434
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 2: United States don't have this problem. Just us buy ourselves

435
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 2: and go look it up.

436
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 10: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM sixty.

437
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 1: Coming up after three o'clock. Uh, there, there is there.

438
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:44,119
Speaker 2: There's a multi million dollar cleanup budget here in Los Angeles,

439
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:51,719
Speaker 2: and LA is still disgusting and filled with trash.

440
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 1: Why is this?

441
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 2: Well, we're gonna talk with Jamie Page from the West

442
00:24:56,119 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 2: Side Current. Maybe she could explain why there's so much

443
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 2: garbage on the streets of Los Angeles considering how much

444
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 2: money they supposedly pay to keep it clean. And we

445
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:10,640
Speaker 2: are the second dirtiest city in America. All right, here's

446
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 2: an animal story for you. Pennsylvania man he has been

447
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 2: banned from bringing into Walmart his emotional support alligator.

448
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 6: Emotional support alligator.

449
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 2: Yes, this is true story, there's photos. His name is

450
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 2: Wesley Sylve, sixty years old. He sixty year old man

451
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 2: walks around with an alligator.

452
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 9: Now I could be ignorant here, but don't alligators need water?

453
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,120
Speaker 9: I mean I know that they go out of water.

454
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 1: They can go out of water yes, they can.

455
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 6: But then they have to go back in.

456
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:48,880
Speaker 1: I guess eventually.

457
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, carry on.

458
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 2: He has a pet named jin Seyoshi, looks like some

459
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 2: type of Japanese name, and he wanted to bring his

460
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 2: his alligator into the Walmart in West Brownsville, Pennsylvania. Usually,

461
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 2: I don't think anybody in a Walmart would even notice that.

462
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,120
Speaker 1: You seen the people of Walmart.

463
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 9: I think they would notice an alligator. And I didn't

464
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 9: know that there were alligators in Pennsylvania.

465
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 1: He that's a good point, he says.

466
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 2: This has never been an issue in the past in town.

467
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 2: We've gone to restaurants.

468
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 9: Oh, come on with an How big is this alligator?

469
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 1: Besized alligator? It fits in.

470
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 2: It fits in this shopping cart, though there's a baby.

471
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:47,439
Speaker 2: It's thirty two pounds, and the alligator wears a gray dress.

472
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:53,120
Speaker 2: There's a photo of the alligator looking pretty hot, pretty hot,

473
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,959
Speaker 2: pretty hot in a gray dress and Silva pushes her

474
00:26:55,960 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 2: around in a shopping cart. There's another photo showing that

475
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 2: jin Sayoshi, the alligator is wearing a shirt with a harness.

476
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 2: I don't know what that's about. He's a little too

477
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 2: close to the alligator here, and he says that the

478
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 2: restaurants have never objected. We've been to Denny's. She's a

479
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 2: star there. She gets VIPRE treatment.

480
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 1: Well, of course she is. Who's going to go up

481
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 1: to the alligator? Yes, are you hungry?

482
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 2: Well, too bad, we don't serve alligators.

483
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:31,959
Speaker 1: She gets good treatment.

484
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 2: He says, she's always on a leash, and he's very

485
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:40,360
Speaker 2: upset with Walmart. Walmart's response is the safety of our

486
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,679
Speaker 2: customers is our highest preer.

487
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 9: Ah, what's Walmart going to do when that alligator takes

488
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 9: a chomp out of a customer?

489
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 2: We welcome service animals in our stores, but it is

490
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 2: unacceptable there's that word again, to expose members of the

491
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 2: public to potential danger. So alligators are not permitted on

492
00:27:58,640 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 2: our premises.

493
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,640
Speaker 9: How can an alligator be a support animal? I mean,

494
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 9: what kind of a support animals?

495
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 2: And I don't know about the emotional relationship that the

496
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 2: two of them have. Apparently they're they're very close. Walmart

497
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 2: says they only welcome service animals like dogs and miniature horses.

498
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,639
Speaker 6: Oh, well, I would rather see a miniature horse.

499
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 2: I love horses are fine. Uh, animals around food really

500
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:29,919
Speaker 2: bother me.

501
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 6: Oh you sound like my husband.

502
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 1: Now, your husband well, you.

503
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 9: Guys are very similar in a lot of ways. It's

504
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 9: pretty scary.

505
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 2: He uh, he is correct, though. Animals should should not

506
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 2: be in grocery stores. There was a dog in our

507
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 2: grocery store in my neighborhood and it was barking like crazy.

508
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 6: So you just ignore it.

509
00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 1: Animals.

510
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 2: Animals have diseases and fleas and ticks and worms, and

511
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 2: you have a bacteria. Yes, but I don't let him

512
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 2: near my food. Silva claims nobody else has protested to

513
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 2: the public.

514
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 5: Now.

515
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 6: They're too afraid you're going to stick your alligator on there.

516
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 1: That's just it.

517
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 2: He doesn't know why everybody treats him someone nicely, because

518
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 2: if he's nutty enough to push an alligator around in

519
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 2: a dress in a shopping cart, he might be nutty

520
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 2: enough to send the alligator out to attack. He got

521
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 2: the alligator from a neighbor. The neighbor had gotten it

522
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 2: as a gift but wasn't able to take care of

523
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 2: it anymore.

524
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 6: It's a hand me down alligator, that's right.

525
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 2: It's just being passed around the neighborhood and he has

526
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 2: been strolling around town for three and a half years.

527
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 2: Alligators can grow to twelve feet long and weigh as

528
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 2: much as one thousand pounds. There is no state law

529
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:58,440
Speaker 2: against owning an alligator a second time. In Pennsylvania, this

530
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 2: has happened in recent years. A fan was denied entry

531
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 2: into the Phillies Ballpark in twenty twenty three he tried

532
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 2: to go through the stadium's gate with his emotional support alligator.

533
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 6: I've never heard of this before. You know, I love animals.

534
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:16,720
Speaker 9: I'm not a fan of alligators, and I don't think

535
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 9: they should be an emotional support animal.

536
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 2: I had an alligator dish for lunch. Oh, I really

537
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 2: did in New Jersey at the place where we got married.

538
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 2: It was this hotel restaurant venue, and you know, we

539
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 2: go to it occasionally to plan the wedding, and one

540
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 2: time they had it on the menu.

541
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 9: So, Eric, isn't it time to do the news? We

542
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:40,720
Speaker 9: don't want to hear about John eating apps.

543
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 1: Oh now you want to break on, yes, because.

544
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 6: I don't want to hear about this anymore.

545
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 1: It really upsets you that a elegance absolutely debor mark
