1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:02,000
Speaker 1: Caf I Am six forty.

2
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 2: You're listening to the John and Ken Show on demand

3
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:09,840
Speaker 2: on the iHeartRadio app on the radio one to four

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 2: after four o'clock Johnny Ken on demand podcast day.

5
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 3: I've already missed two hours. If you're just tuning in now,

6
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,439
Speaker 3: you gotta go back and listen to those two hours later.

7
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 1: You missed a lot about it.

8
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,159
Speaker 3: How prop agit prop a shit props the word of

9
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:26,280
Speaker 3: the day, you know, But at least we're honest about it.

10
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 3: We're to show that's all opinion. Yeah, we throw it

11
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 3: a few facts here and there, but we are opinion.

12
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:38,160
Speaker 3: That's why I call it opinion shapers. Like an occasional fact.

13
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 3: An occasional fact is thrown in there. But whenever we

14
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 3: miss effect and we'll we'll highlight it. Well, how important

15
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 3: are facts to opinion anyway?

16
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: In today's world? Opinion? No, facts are boring.

17
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 3: But we're not disguised. I think when most people look

18
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 3: at these news websites, they think they're getting the facts

19
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,639
Speaker 3: and the details of the story, all right, No, that's

20
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 3: where agit prop came from. They're getting opinion trying to

21
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 3: shape your life.

22
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 1: That's what they're doing with it.

23
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 2: They've also veered into just outright lying, because if I

24
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 2: say there's been a lot of smash and grab robberies,

25
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:18,479
Speaker 2: it's not an opinion, it's what's happening. It's reality. But

26
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 2: they're publishing these stories claiming that, well, no, it's really

27
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 2: not anything unusual.

28
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 1: Yes it is. Stop it.

29
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 3: Well, they might argue that they're just more fantastic robberies,

30
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:37,039
Speaker 3: more sensational smashing grabs. With these mobs, they're scary. Maybe

31
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 3: there aren't any more crimes than there were. Its just

32
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 3: the way they're being performed or on a larger scale,

33
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 3: it makes.

34
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 2: You think they look terrifying. Okay, you imagine being in

35
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 2: one of these departments.

36
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: I'm ready for it.

37
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm ready for somebody committed like old mob and

38
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 3: just start smashing stuff.

39
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 2: I think everybody ought to be carrying bear spray on them, and.

40
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 3: I guess that's more effective. Pepper spray, bearspey. Yeah, I

41
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 3: think it probably would be bad.

42
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 2: Whatever you want, bear spray, pepper spray and sticks, none

43
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 2: shock like you see on these videos. Yeah, whatever it

44
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,239
Speaker 2: takes pour out there, you're not getting it. You're not

45
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 2: getting Karen Bass, Karen Bascone protecting you all.

46
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 3: Right, A quick reminder that the voice line is coming

47
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 3: tomorrow during this hour. We got room for messages. Use

48
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 3: the iHeartRadio app or call the tellphree number one eight

49
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 3: seven seven moist eighty six. Well, we have a district attorney,

50
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 3: of course, he could be nowhere near Los Angeles, who

51
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 3: has had it with homelessness in his city, and he

52
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 3: is threatening with a thirty day deadline to charge city

53
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 3: leaders with not enforcing the laws to clean up the encampments.

54
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 3: We're talking about Sacramento, and we're talking about the Sacramento

55
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 3: District Attorney, a name we've never come across before on

56
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 3: the show. In fact, I had Ray try to get

57
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 3: him on, but I guess it didn't work. His name

58
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 3: is the end Hole. He apparently has well least uard

59
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 3: of the DA's office. Back in two thousand and four

60
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 3: and years later he got elected to the top office.

61
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 3: But he wrote a letter to Darryl Steinberg and the

62
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 3: city leaders that he can't believe the conditions in Sacramento,

63
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 3: particularly around the city offices. That there's encampments, there's filth,

64
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 3: there's needle. I mean, you know the list. It sounds

65
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 3: like San Francisco's tenderline, right, but he went further. He

66
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,399
Speaker 3: gave them a thirty day deadline, which we're coming up against,

67
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 3: to clean up the encampments, or he threatens to start

68
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 3: charging people with offenses, and that, of course would be

69
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 3: the city leaders. He says, if you have to cite

70
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 3: people to refuse shelter and implement the daytime camping ban.

71
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 3: And as John has pointed out many times, there is

72
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 3: a daytime camping ban allowed by the Ninth Circuit ruling

73
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 3: a few years back. They can sleep there overnight, but

74
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 3: they got to get out during the day. And this

75
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 3: DA says, I'm aware of that, and I want the

76
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 3: city to enforce.

77
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 2: That and enforce all the other quality of life roles,

78
00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 2: like you can't blockade a sidewalk right that violates the

79
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 2: ADA laws. You can't have a start fires in public

80
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 2: if you're on parkland.

81
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 3: So did you know the person we're talking about the

82
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 3: center of this is the mayor of Sacramento, a name

83
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 3: that's familiar to longtime Johnny Ken Show listeners, Daryl Steinberg,

84
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 3: who used to be the head of the state Senate,

85
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,679
Speaker 3: and because he got turned out and he had nowhere

86
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 3: else to land, he decided for now to take more

87
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 3: taxpayer money as mayor of Sacramento. And he thinks this

88
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,159
Speaker 3: is a stunt by the DA. I hope it's not.

89
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 2: Well, I don't understand. Steinberg is the one who's not

90
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 2: enforcing the laws and making Sacramento unsafe. So of course

91
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 2: he turns on the on the DA. Here, what are

92
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: you turning on the DA? He's right, he's telling the truth.

93
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 2: You've abdicated your responsibility. You're allowing what what Hoe describes

94
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 2: as these public nuisances. And he's threatening Steinberg with misdemeanor

95
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 2: charges for allowing the nuisances. And I don't see anything

96
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 2: in this story that says that Holl is not legally

97
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:06,840
Speaker 2: correct in his analysis here.

98
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 3: So here's the details. The letter went out on August seventh.

99
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,799
Speaker 3: You have to prosecute certain defenses, hire more attorneys, audit

100
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 3: you're spending on homelessness, or he will pursue misdemeanor charges

101
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 3: against officials for allowing a public nuisance on city property

102
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 3: if they did not act within thirty days. Now today,

103
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 3: being what September seventh, we're pretty much on top of

104
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 3: the thirty days. So we're gonna find out very soon

105
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 3: whether he's gonna follow this up now, mideanior charges doesn't

106
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 3: mean it's gonna be a big criminal deal, but it

107
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 3: is going to certainly make an embarrassment out of these acts.

108
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, and this is what ought to be done.

109
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm so disgusted with just everybody who lives

110
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 2: in the cities for putting up with this.

111
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: Right.

112
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 2: You know, you go take trips like you know I

113
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 2: most of us do during the summertime, and you go

114
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 2: to different cities and states and you don't see any

115
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 2: of this, and it just really hits you over the head.

116
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 2: It's like people just don't allow this, and there's no

117
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 2: discussion about appeals court rulings and what the ordinances are

118
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 2: and about the lack of compassion. They simply just say, no,

119
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,239
Speaker 2: you can't do this here, period. You cannot do this here,

120
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:24,919
Speaker 2: So get up, move on somewhere else. I don't understand

121
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 2: why people put up.

122
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: With this stuff. Why why is everybody enduring this all

123
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: these years?

124
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 3: So particularly a homeless advocacy group which calls itself a

125
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 3: union really the Sacramental Homeless Union. They filed a complaint

126
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 3: with the State bar of California against the Sacramento County

127
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 3: District Attorney. I looked it up. The county has about

128
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 3: a million and a half people. Their last homeless count

129
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 3: was just over ten thousand, so that's significant. And most

130
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 3: of them are centered in the city of Sacramento. And

131
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 3: I know this may be hard to believe for a

132
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 3: lot of our listeners, but Sacramento was one of the

133
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 3: fastest growing cities in the state for people to live in.

134
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 3: And the reason is it is cheaper than the Bay

135
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 3: Area and a lot of LA Area places.

136
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: So some government keeps growing.

137
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, and government keeps growing, so some people have gone

138
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 3: there as a way to figure out how to afford

139
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 3: the housing. So, especially during the pandemic, it blew up

140
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 3: because people were marching out of LA and San Francisco

141
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 3: and San Diego, and this was at least a city

142
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 3: they could go to where they thought they could find work,

143
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 3: and as John pointed out, lots of government work there.

144
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 3: So we're going to find out what this Sacramento County

145
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 3: District Attorney does in terms of following up on his

146
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 3: letter and going after city officials, because from what I understand,

147
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 3: and I don't go to Sacramento often, I don't think

148
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 3: much change has been made in the last thirty days.

149
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 2: No, because sibs is I said, an incompetent boob.

150
00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: He's a do nothing.

151
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 2: He's been there seven years. Yeah, I know, he's like Garcetti,

152
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 2: that's all. They're all Garcettis. They don't do anything.

153
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 3: They don't just speaking for the next government job.

154
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: Deir glom On.

155
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 2: He checks his bank account every two weeks to see

156
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 2: that the that the taxpayer paid paycheck clears that really

157
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 2: cares about. And they checks his political account to make

158
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 2: sure the donations are coming in so he can run

159
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 2: for something else after he's turned out his mayor.

00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: Well, the criminal.

166
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 3: Justice system in the news this afternoon, and I guess

167
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 3: it's not really good news for the Church of Scientology.

168
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 3: Actor Danny Masterson received his sentence today of thirty years

169
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 3: to life in prison. He was condicted of raping two

170
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 3: former members of the church and these women say that, well,

171
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 3: it took them some time to come forward because scientology

172
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 3: doctrine forbade them from reporting a fellow member to the police.

173
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 3: These assaults took place in the early two thousands, like

174
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 3: twenty years ago. Reminds you of the Catholic Church again,

175
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 3: doesn't it?

176
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,959
Speaker 2: Like, well, once you know that, why would any woman

177
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 2: belong to this weird cult cult?

178
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 1: Why would why would you do that? I don't know.

179
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 3: They do get some type of mind control over members.

180
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 3: It's kind of hard to figure.

181
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 1: Out it, you know.

182
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 3: And then to the rest that they say, you don't understand,

183
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 3: come and be enlightened and.

184
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 1: Read and I don't understand, but I.

185
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 3: Have misconceptions about who and what we are. Remember even

186
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,079
Speaker 3: what your name got drawn into this, Karen Bascone right

187
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 3: let see.

188
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Karen Bascon was given given a like a

189
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:58,319
Speaker 2: camp years ago.

190
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,040
Speaker 1: She gave some sort of praise, right.

191
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 2: Right, yeah, because he was trying to get money. Because

192
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 2: there's always wealthy Hollywood celebrities that are involved in scientology,

193
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 2: and it's one of the things about the human mind,

194
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 2: Like I don't I try to understand it. I've read

195
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 2: a lot about these cults and why people are attracted

196
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 2: to them, but it's still I can't wrap my head

197
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 2: around it now because I don't understand how lost you

198
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 2: have to be, whether it's you know, Charles Manson or

199
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 2: some of these gurus, you know, the Maharishi type gurus

200
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 2: that were popular years ago. I mean, there's always there's

201
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 2: always another version of these things. And what's what I

202
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,319
Speaker 2: don't get the attraction of it. Why do you want

203
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 2: to turn yourself over to other human beings who really,

204
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 2: in most cases are looting you for money or trying

205
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 2: to compromise you for sex. I mean, those are the

206
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 2: drivers of people who run cults. It's to get money

207
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 2: and sex.

208
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 3: And just like the Catholic Church, you apparently was a

209
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 3: pretty powerful member of the Church of Scientology, so they

210
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 3: were protecting them when these women came forward with their

211
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 3: stories and it said they were just sent to like

212
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 3: ethics counseling instead.

213
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 1: Oh don't you weren't raped. You're imagining it because he don't.

214
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 2: I'm sure the reason they went after Hollywood celebrities is

215
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 2: to get their money. So if he's powerful within this

216
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 2: this cult, it's because he gave them a lot of money,

217
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 2: like Tom Cruise did or John Travolta did, So, don't.

218
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,679
Speaker 3: They take like some of your income or something like that.

219
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 3: Isn't that kind of the idea.

220
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know how. I don't know

221
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 2: what the requirements are. How much of its voluntary, how

222
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 2: much of it's mad? I don't know, But I do

223
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 2: know that the celebrities get lured in because the scientology

224
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 2: big wigs want to get at Hollywood cash.

225
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,319
Speaker 1: Looks like he caused these women.

226
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 3: All of the women describe falling prey to Masterson after

227
00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 3: he served them drinks that made them disoriented and auseated. Yeah,

228
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 3: some of them said that they were attacked by him.

229
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,680
Speaker 3: He also claimed that he spat on her, called her

230
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 3: white trash, and initiated sex with her while she was asleep.

231
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a psycho. He's a psychopath, and I guess

232
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 2: he found, you know, being in this cult. He gave

233
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 2: him access to hot Hollywood scarlets who were also lost the.

234
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 3: Way California sentencing laws go. I don't know, Well, he

235
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 3: actually spent thirty years behind bars. Yeah, will there'll be

236
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 3: some type of you know, we went the first thing

237
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 3: I thought of, or do they not do that for

238
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 3: celebrities because they considered them having privilege and how dare

239
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 3: they commit a crime And they were offered all the

240
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 3: opportunities and still failed, and now we have to punish them.

241
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 3: The other person making the news this afternoon from the

242
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 3: criminal justice system. I guess he was on the Johnny

243
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 3: Ken Show once, at least the former White House advisor

244
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 3: Peter Navarro remember.

245
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 2: That job, because he was uh trade at UC Irvine.

246
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: Oh okay, and we had him on.

247
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 2: There was some issue early in Trump's term over China,

248
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 2: over the way Trump wanted to deal with China at the.

249
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: Viral trade line. I think it was trade or something. Yeah.

250
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 3: Remember that was the one thing that Trump screamed a

251
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 3: lot about back in twenty sixteen. He was going to

252
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 3: do something about the trade deficit with China and everything

253
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 3: like that.

254
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,439
Speaker 1: What's that he might go to federal prison. Now, yeah,

255
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:33,439
Speaker 1: it's contempt.

256
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 3: He wouldn't comply with a subpoena related to the quote

257
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 3: plot to overturn the twenty twenty election. So they only

258
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 3: deliberated for a few hours at the federal courthouse in Washington,

259
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 3: d C. And they found them guilty of two counts

260
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 3: of contempt for refusing also to testify before the House

261
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 3: January sixth Committee and to turn over some documents that

262
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 3: the committee wanted.

263
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 2: It's pretty easy to convict somebody on that type of

264
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 2: contempt charge because you send them a subpoena and they

265
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 2: don't show up.

266
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,439
Speaker 1: They don't show up. They didn't send me the documents.

267
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 1: They didn't show up.

268
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 3: He was citing like Trump's executive privilege or something as

269
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 3: the reason that yeh get the documents over. He couldn't testify.

270
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 1: Nice, try, You're not the president, you're an advisor.

271
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 3: You got to show up like Trump, you know, his

272
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 3: top advisors take the whole thing as a charade. That

273
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 3: there was no plot to overturn the twenty twenty election.

274
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 3: We believed that we were fairly contesting the results. So

275
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 3: why should I submit to an investigation into a plot

276
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 3: that didn't exist.

277
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 1: Okay, well, all right, go to prison then.

278
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 3: Well each count carries a minimum of thirty days and

279
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 3: a maximum of one year in prison, so he could

280
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 3: get a couple of years I guess in prison if

281
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 3: they do go that far with the sentence.

282
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 1: They give it. That to Steve Bannon too.

283
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 3: Apparently protesters showed up and were shouting him down when

284
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 3: he was talking to reporters outside the courthouse today.

285
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 1: I guess they're not supporters.

286
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 3: They were probably Trumpeters who hired all this stuff closely, Yes,

287
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 3: I know hired Lessing.

288
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 1: I think they should all be in jail.

289
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 3: He said, sad day for America, not because of the

290
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 3: guilty verdicts, because I can't come out and have an honest,

291
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 3: decent conversation with the people of America.

292
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 1: He said, this is the.

293
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 3: Whole Marxist the woke Marxist left mob here, and this

294
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 3: is nuts.

295
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you still have to testify before Congress if

296
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 2: you get a subpoena, so you can. You can distract

297
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 2: with all your woke mob stuff and you're you're, you're right.

298
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 3: But that's not the point here. But it's a kangaroo court.

299
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 3: Why should I submit to a kangaroo On that term

300
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 3: a kangaroo court, he says, he's gonna appeal this, This

301
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 3: may end up in the Supreme Court. Blah blah blah.

302
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 3: They didn't take very long to reach their verdicts. And

303
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 3: yeah again he said he didn't appear because former President

304
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 3: Trump told them he could assert assert executive privilege in

305
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 3: the case.

306
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: Sure, I'd go buy his advice.

307
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, some boys gives such a good idea.

308
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 1: It's smart to follow Trump's advice.

00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 2: and Cannon demand podcast.

315
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 1: Listen to what you missed.

316
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, we invite you to leave a message for the Moistliine,

317
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 3: which will play during this hour tomorrow.

318
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: As it does just about every Friday.

319
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 3: Use the iHeartRadio app, the microphone iconor called the tophy

320
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 3: number one eight seven seven Moist eighty six. They like

321
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 3: to do things differently every now and then. In Huntington Beach,

322
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 3: the City Council voted this week to ban the implementation

323
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 3: of COVID nineteen vaccine and mask requirements in the city.

324
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 1: So they're getting out in front of the problem. I guess.

325
00:16:55,720 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 2: So this four to three vote, So this effects private

326
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 2: businesses and city agencies.

327
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 3: I guess. The motion asserted that the mask mandates that

328
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 3: were previously imposed in the city unnecessarily limited the freedoms

329
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,360
Speaker 3: of the citizens of Huntington Beach, even those who were

330
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 3: not around anyone who tested positive for COVID or at

331
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 3: risk of any exposure. The band applies, Oh no, the

332
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 3: band applies to city personnel, not the private businesses.

333
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 1: Oh just the city.

334
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 3: Just the city itself and their operations. So you would

335
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 3: think that they well would that mean that one of

336
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 3: the Orange County Health Agency was telling that the covered

337
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 3: employees had to mask up to Huntington Beach.

338
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 1: I know here, you don't have to. There's been more

339
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 1: and more of this in the air. You know.

340
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 2: There's a few schools that have reinstituted masks.

341
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,879
Speaker 3: Yes, and they're mostly colleges. I've read and stuff.

342
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 1: Some colleges have.

343
00:17:54,720 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 3: Got some how hideous they're central people have COVID nineteen Yeah.

344
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,120
Speaker 2: Like fourth year now to try to make people wear masks.

345
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 2: And you have all these woke students running around and

346
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 2: woke professors and everybody's yelling about masks, and oh my god,

347
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,480
Speaker 2: what a horrific hell college has become.

348
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,119
Speaker 1: Oh just unbelieve.

349
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 3: Another day and the writer is an actors strike, and

350
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,439
Speaker 3: today they decided to go to the Amazon studio in

351
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 3: Culver City to focus on one issue. It's a bill

352
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 3: that would give them unemployment insurance. You see, there's a

353
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 3: bill in Sacramento that would allow unemployment insurance to striking

354
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 3: workers in California. Now, striking writers and actors in New

355
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:49,400
Speaker 3: York and New Jersey are already eligible for unemployment benefits

356
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 3: after fourteen days on the picket line, but California doesn't

357
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 3: have this allowance. So Senate Bill seven nine to nine.

358
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 3: Probably it's already passed the Assembly Insurance Committee, and the

359
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 3: legislature as until a week from tomorrow to vote it

360
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:02,639
Speaker 3: and give.

361
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:03,120
Speaker 1: It to Newsome.

362
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 3: What is kind of weird because you normally think of

363
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 3: unemployment insurance for people that were laid off.

364
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:14,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, why do you get money when you choose to strike?

365
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 2: You voted not to work, so you're not working. Where'd

366
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:21,719
Speaker 2: you think was going to happen. I'm sympathetic to the writers.

367
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 2: I got several friends who are in the writers guild.

368
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 2: You have lines. But when it comes to I choose

369
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 2: not to work, now give me some money. You know

370
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 2: that the government is supposed to supply the money, and

371
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 2: I you know, I know the business is actually pay

372
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 2: into the unemployment fund, but I don't know.

373
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:43,640
Speaker 1: But that's not the.

374
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 3: Nature of unemployment. Unemployment is supposed to be when you're

375
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 3: involuntarily unemployed.

376
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 1: Right here, they're voluntarily said, we're not going.

377
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,360
Speaker 3: To where you could have continued to accept the salary

378
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 3: and do the job, and instead, right you decide to

379
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,640
Speaker 3: walk and a little hostile to that.

380
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 2: You've been offered a deal. Now it may be a

381
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:07,120
Speaker 2: bad deal, but no company is required to pay you

382
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 2: what you want. You may be absolutely right that you

383
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 2: deserve more and that they're screwing the writers over. Yes,

384
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 2: but in the end, they own the company. You don't.

385
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,399
Speaker 2: If you want to pay writers more, you know, go

386
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,120
Speaker 2: go start your own company. It's just not the way

387
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 2: life works. And yes, you have more power because you've unionized,

388
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 2: so the power of big numbers. But if they're still

389
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 2: not paying you, now you're turning to the state to

390
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 2: bail you out. I mean, maybe you should be getting

391
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 2: another day job for the time being. I mean, why

392
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,359
Speaker 2: not go to work and get a regular job.

393
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,119
Speaker 3: Now you think you have to figure out a way

394
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 3: to supplement your income. I don't think they spend all

395
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 3: day on the picket lines. They take turns. I guess

396
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:53,240
Speaker 3: the LUGA that's the Writer Guild West president said writers

397
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 3: have had to rely on strike loans from our union donations, philanthropy,

398
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,399
Speaker 3: and second and third jobs to pay for the basic

399
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 3: needs since May second, four months without work is emotionally

400
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,680
Speaker 3: brutal and financially disastrous.

401
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:07,959
Speaker 1: It is, it is.

402
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 3: But that's a choice you made in order to try

403
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 3: to get the studios to to kneel and give you

404
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:15,919
Speaker 3: what you does it think you deserve.

405
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 2: So this is what makes me crazy just about the

406
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 2: whole country. The way the culture has changed over the

407
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 2: years is you don't take responsibility for the decisions you made.

408
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 2: You decided to get into the business, and it's been

409
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 2: known for one hundred years that Hollywood studios and networks

410
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 2: production companies don't treat talent fairly. You have to be

411
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,439
Speaker 2: unusually successful and then you get to call the shots.

412
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 2: Right then you get to be Schwarzenegger demanding twenty million

413
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 2: dollars or harsh and Ford something like that. Right, But

414
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 2: if you don't have that pull, you don't have that

415
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,280
Speaker 2: popularity or the talent, whatever it is, then you're going

416
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 2: to be fighting a whole lot of other people who

417
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 2: can do.

418
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 1: The same job just as well.

419
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a tough market out there, and there's

420
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 2: too many actors, and there's too many writers, and most

421
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 2: of them don't work most of the time.

422
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,159
Speaker 3: So, as I said before, with this strike, there is

423
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 3: so much material and production out there now that everybody

424
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 3: can't expect to I mean, they're claiming they're getting nothing

425
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,880
Speaker 3: in residuals, which I can understand that argument. There's even

426
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 3: been a few actors that were in the series that

427
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 3: are considered pretty popular that claim that they get very

428
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 3: little in residuals from the because these things streaming.

429
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 1: They get screwed over.

430
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 2: So what I'm saying is, Okay, you're all in on

431
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 2: the strike, then you really ought to be lining up

432
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 2: another job while you're on strike and not be going

433
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 2: to the government to bailue out.

434
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,360
Speaker 1: Why is it the government's responsibility here.

435
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 3: I think they have a good shot since Sacramento loves unions. Yeah,

436
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 3: they do well because it takes a lot of donation.

437
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 3: They're very sympathetic, particularly the Hollywood and actors. Although the

438
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 3: other side of that is that's right. Well, the other

439
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,400
Speaker 3: side of that is that they also get big donations

440
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 3: from Hollywood studio executives who look kindly on this because

441
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 3: it's like, you're gonna help them stay on strike. Thanks,

442
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 3: you're gonna give them un employment money. They'll keep them

443
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,159
Speaker 3: out even longer. We got to get back in production here,

444
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,119
Speaker 3: and I don't want to be paying out a barrel

445
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 3: of cash to these people.

446
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, it's it's all the left wing people declaring

447
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 1: war on each other.

448
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 2: Exactly.

449
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 1: All right, we got more weak.

450
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,720

Speaker 1: Uh.

458

Speaker 3: not you're dealing with snowflakes or you're dealing with the

460

461
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:56,639
Speaker 3: work environment. Rolling Stone as a writer who spoke to

462
00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 3: sixteen current and former staffers of The ten starring Jimmy Fallon.

463
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 3: They claimed that their mental health was impacted because of

464
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:11,120
Speaker 3: their alleged mistreatment behind the scenes. They called Jimmy Fallon erratic.

465
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 3: You never knew which Jimmy was gonna show up to

466
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 3: work that day. Some claimed it appeared he was quite indebriated,

467
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 3: although he denies he ever came to work drunk, saying

468
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 3: something like, how can I drink all day and then

469
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:25,719
Speaker 3: go to work and put out that show? It wouldn't

470
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,160
Speaker 3: be possible. You think you'd notice it on the air

471
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 3: a bit, wouldn't you if that was the case with somebody?

472
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: Depends when you're doing your drinking.

473
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 2: What did they call it? They usually tape the show late.

474
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 1: After functioning alcoholic.

475
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:40,919
Speaker 2: They call it right, right, So, I mean, if you

476
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 2: can get it together by you know, five in the afternoon,

477
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 2: now you could get blasted and lay around all morning

478
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 2: and crabbing grumpy from the hangover.

479
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 1: I could see that.

480
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 3: So they said that sometimes he would throw and I

481
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 3: haven't heard this term in a long time, a hissy fit,

482
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 3: and he would bereat people and screen mit people. And

483
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 3: of course, as I said, somebody. They even cite the

484
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,920
Speaker 3: crying rooms where some people went to recover, okay from

485
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 3: you know, the crying room. They went to the crying

486
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 3: room in order to try to gather themselves after they

487
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 3: were rather publicly berated by the talk show host and.

488
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 1: And some of them said they felt suicidal.

489
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 3: Suicidal, Yeah, I saw that headline.

490
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:30,199
Speaker 2: Suicidal ideation I think is the term they used. You

491
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 2: start idealizing suicide. You're writing for a comedy show, or

492
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 2: you're you're you're doing you know, production work for a

493
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 2: comedy show. If you think you're going to be committing suicide,

494
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:45,640
Speaker 2: I it might be you. Well, so get another job.

495
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 2: There's like six hundred shows that they're that they're producing.

496
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 2: Now what so go somewhere else. Some of them are gone.

497
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 1: Uh.

498
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 3: Four said they went to therapy. Three said they experienced

499
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 3: suicidal thoughts because of the toxic working. In one particular incident,

500
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 3: to employee said Fallon scolded a crew member in charge

501
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,159
Speaker 3: of que cards during a taping with Jerry Seinfeld and

502
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 3: only apologized because Seinfeld said you should apologize, although Seinfeld

503
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 3: later called the magazine's version of that story stupid and

504
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:23,199
Speaker 3: an idiotic twisting of events. Apparently, though, this afternoon, Jimmy

505
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 3: Fallon did issue an apology to anybody that felt that

506
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:31,440
Speaker 3: they were treated poorly in the workplace. They're now claiming

507
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 3: an NBC's claiming that things have changed, that those stories

508
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 3: are from years. They're years old. The culture of the

509
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 3: show has changed, right.

510
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 2: Well, they had nine producers in nine years, and some

511
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 2: of the bad behavior was from the producers.

512
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 1: Is that right?

513
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 3: Nine producers We've had none in the last twenty something.

514
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,439
Speaker 2: Well, you know what they call the showrunners. These are

515
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,880
Speaker 2: the guys like to direct the whole.

516
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 3: Well, TV's completely different from radio. It's really just incredibly

517
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:05,880
Speaker 3: hyper and there's too many people involved, and everything's overmanaged,

518
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 3: and everybody stands out about everything, and they do.

519
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 1: Yell at, they do yell at.

520
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,120
Speaker 2: I know somebody who was in television and they got

521
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:14,920
Speaker 2: out of it and they said, I just got tired

522
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,679
Speaker 2: of people screaming at each other all day over a

523
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:18,359
Speaker 2: TV show.

524
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: Right, That's that's That's what I don't understand.

525
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,120
Speaker 2: I mean, you're you work on a TV show and

526
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 2: you're you're seriously embracing suicide.

527
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: Could there be something wrong with you?

528
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 2: Why don't people when they're in an unpleasant work environment

529
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 2: just go. I don't understand. It's like everybody acts like

530
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 2: they're trapped in they're hostage to some sort of cult.

531
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 2: There's a door go if enough of the staff leaves

532
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 2: Jimmy Fallon or whatever ogre is running the frame.

533
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 3: To work on the Tonight Show, John, Why would I

534
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 3: leave that dream because someone's mean to me?

Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, why don't you grow up? All right, you're

00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,399
Speaker 2: not eight years old anymore. There's no such thing as

537
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 2: a dream. It's reality.

538
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,159
