But 42 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 3: number two, I'm just like in a really a really 43 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 3: urbanized part of LA so that the fires, Like, I'm 44 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 3: not in wildfire danger and if not not, I guess 45 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 3: anything could happen. I don't want to say not and 46 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 3: fay in that way, but like you know, it's it's 47 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 3: the I'm not in that part. So I've been lucky 48 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 3: to solidarity and snacks, the Mutual Aid group that I've 49 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 3: tried to do as much as I can with has 50 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 3: been we've been able to We usually concentrate on skied 51 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 3: Row anyway, so we were able to get our hands 52 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 3: on a thousand masks. Many of them are still in 53 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 3: my car right now, but they won't be by the 54 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 3: time this comes out. Actually, And so oh yeah, I 55 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 3: was out on skid Row last night, getting people masks, 56 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 3: getting people water. It's a little weird the sort of 57 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 3: situation with the need because obviously need and sort of 58 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 3: secondary tertiary needs because of the fire have increased everywhere. 59 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 3: But yeah, it's it's like an ever changing situations. So 60 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 3: even as I say this, things might be different by 61 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 3: the time this comes out. But currently the sort of 62 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 3: main shelters at the Pasadena Convention Center, and I think 63 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 3: they just actually closed the one at Pan Pacific Park 64 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 3: and are moving supplies out. 65 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 2: But don't quote me on this because everything keeps changing. 66 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 3: But there's anyway, there's there's sort of a lot of 67 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 3: immediate need for people in shelters, partially because just there's 68 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 3: only so much space and logistical distribution and like things 69 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 3: like food can't keep forever and things like that. So 70 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 3: I'm hesitant to even say what the immediate needs are. 71 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 3: But I think the in the coming days in weeks 72 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 3: is when like real need is going to start like 73 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 3: becoming very clear, and hopefully people continue. 74 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: To pay attention and be because yeah, there there's been 75 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: like an outpouring of from like across the country if 76 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: people being like how can I help? And yeah, that 77 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 1: is everything, and I'm just hoping just kind of want 78 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: to tell people like pump the brakes and just like 79 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: keep that energy up when it's like no longer in 80 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 1: the news, like people actually are like now settling into 81 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: having to deal with what this is, and like the. 82 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 3: Flyers aren't even out, like you know, it's not like 83 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 3: we're not in the aftermath and no aftermath and there 84 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 3: isn't really anything not anything, sorry, but there's not like 85 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 3: a specific thing that you can like immediately do that's helpful. 86 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 3: I'm repeating myself from the future now. But one thing 87 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 3: I will say is, especially in this stage of the internet, 88 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 3: and it's easier than ever to like move money around 89 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 3: if you can try to do some research on where 90 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 3: to send your resources because like well funded and you 91 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 3: know the places you've heard of your red clrooss not 92 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 3: for this situation, but your planned parenthoods are typically uh, 93 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 3: in my opinion, the best way for you to send 94 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 3: key resources.

Like 395 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 1: it's like a dumb guy's version of a smart like 396 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: he's hiding all these clues and like words, scrambles. 397 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 2: Around the move and ship. Yeah. 398 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,399 Speaker 1: But yeah, like they're they're assuming the criminal masterminds like 399 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 1: have to remind themselves which car they've like decided to 400 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 1: taken somebody from with zip ties. And also weird the 401 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 1: bit about like all right, we've we've concocted our plan. 402 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 1: Now for the last part the clues, where we set 403 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:51,880 Speaker 1: out all. 404 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 2: The ways why people clues. 405 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 1: That they anyways, the plot does seem to go full 406 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 1: Quan on the human trafficking ring.

It's the 412 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 3: reason it's like this could be either side is because 413 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 3: they say the Democrats do it. Democrats do a softer 414 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 3: version of it, and then you know, current Republicans do 415 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 3: the hardest, most insane version of it. 416 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: In everything, the best indication that it is trumpy is 417 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: that it was co written by Sylvester Stallone, who is 418 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: disappointingly way more.
