1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:02,960
Speaker 1: K I am six forty. You're listening to the John

2
00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:10,400
Speaker 1: and Ken Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Hello Hello.

3
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 1: I liked to sometimes, he said, just check my spam

4
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 1: folder often as we're just coming on the air, because

5
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:17,640
Speaker 1: I was just assuming anything's going on. And I got

6
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 1: one for an erectile drink. Do you want me to

7
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 1: share it with you? Erectile drink? Yes, it says red

8
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 1: tonic triggers. Uh. Well, I look, I could read the rest,

9
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 1: but the but the proof. Ninety three percent of men

10
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 1: over fifty apparently have had success by drinking this erectile drink. Yeah.

11
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 1: So I mean it's uosy pills, right, it is usually pills. Damn,

12
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 1: this is a drink. Are you gonna tell him? Ken?

13
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 1: I was just telling John off the air that I

14
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,200
Speaker 1: got an email from a listener saying that he heard

15
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: my uh my erectile dysfunction ad or it's not nowhere.

16
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 1: He heard it in Huntsville, Texas on a tree station.

17
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: Oh I know. So this commercial is being played all

18
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: over the card I did not get paid enough for

19
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: that commercial. Let me just tell you a rectilely deficient

20
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 1: man all across the nation. It must be responding to

21
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 1: you is that it's my lovely voice. What can I

22
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: say complain to say? Does it work better if you

23
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 1: take the pills and listen to you doing the commercial

24
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 1: at the same time? Probably really get the men, I

25
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 1: think so that's why, especially when I use my sexy voice,

26
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,479
Speaker 1: not my news voice. Oh, show us your sexy voice

27
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:35,320
Speaker 1: right now. Hey, guys, come on, what are you doing tonight? Oh?

28
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: I'd pay you ten bucks to do the news like that.

29
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'd be allowed. It would be

30
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: fun though, even like there's a quarter hour update, just

31
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: a little you could work with all those Biden said,

32
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: don't just pick out a fun story. Don't do anything

33
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: right all right? Yeah, the guys are in hunts Bell

34
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:59,279
Speaker 1: are going nuts over you there, I guess yeah, Huntsville, Texas.

35
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: I heard Huntsville out Obama number Huntsville, Texas. It's even

36
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: the smaller Yeah. Yeah, it's the iHeartRadio app. I guess right. Well.

37
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: He also listens to the John and Ken Show and

38
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 1: the Gary and Shannon Show on the iHeartRadio app. But

39
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: he said he heard it on a country radio station.

40
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 1: Oh that's right, the country radio. Yeah, it's played on

41
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 1: all ninety eight seven to Morgan sent me a clip

42
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: of it. Yeah I'm famous, or that you're getting big resists.

43
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 1: I'm not. That's what I was saying. It was one

44
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: time thing. Yes, yes, so I I blew it. I

45
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: don't no wonder it does so well? Told John thinks

46
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: you just fly out of my mouth. I have no control.

47
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: That's not making it better. It's like the clip John

48
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: might today. John sent us all a clip of some

49
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 1: weather castor who also made quite a flow. But that

50
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,919
Speaker 1: was good. Yeah, we gotta get a sexual nature. We

51
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 1: gotta get her to go viral. It's not that hard.

52
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 1: We're getting close. I don't think Robin Bertolucci would like

53
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 1: her news person to go viral regarding a sexual something

54
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,119
Speaker 1: or other. No, but the best we got was you

55
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: you glad some guy died? Remember that we had Oh

56
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 1: I wasn't well? Yeah, yeah, some guy who apparently hunter.

57
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: If you keep denying it, Geric's just going to keep playing.

58
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: No what I'm glad that that guy was was shot

59
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 1: to death. Okay, that's that's called editing, and so you

60
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 1: you you no, no, no, it's called out of context,

61
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: of context. And he didn't edit anything, okay, he but

62
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: he edited. He didn't, he didn't play the whole context. Okay, fine,

63
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: out of context, you know what. I'm glad that that

64
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: guy was was shot to death. I don't know what

65
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: other interpretation there could be. Maybe a hunter that goes

66
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: and kills innocent animals in a brutal way. That was

67
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: what the story was about. Yes, thank you. Okay, we'll

68
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 1: just keep playing it without telling people that the rest

69
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: of the show. Good news all. We got a lot

70
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: to do today. We do have a hack that should

71
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 1: be hacks. Let me look into this for the dumpster

72
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: coming later on. We have recruited, of course, the usual

73
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 1: mob members put John. The French are back as the

74
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 1: French are now in the streets fighting the increase in

75
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 1: the retirement age in that country. So they have taken

76
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 1: to the streets in a nice loud manner. They're gonna

77
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: come back and join the mob and help us. I

78
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 1: don't understand that French protest at all. Completely escapes me

79
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: because I saw the video. It's it's mostly young people. Yes,

80
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: they don't want to have to work until they're sixty four.

81
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 1: Who thinks about that. European socialists they have a whole

82
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: different mindset. But at that young age, you have that

83
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: much anger. I mean they arrested, didn't they arrest like

84
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: thousands of people today? I don't know. I didn't look

85
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: at today's news on it, so because it was one

86
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: of the one of the top stories I heard on

87
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 1: the Network news driving in. The other big story, of course,

88
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: is that John can now dismantle his bunker because Vladimir

89
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: Putin is going to be arrested. The International Criminal Court

90
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: has issued an arrest warrant for President Vladimir Putin of

91
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: Russia war crimes in Ukraine. So any moment now we're

92
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 1: going to get the breaking news that he's been taken

93
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 1: into custody and the war is over. Am I being

94
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: a little bit? Do you know? We optimistic? Whatever that

95
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 1: agency is that issued the arrest of warrant, the ICC,

96
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: the International Criminal Court, they don't have a police force. No,

97
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 1: they don't have anybody to show up with the warrant

98
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 1: that owns a gun. Well, they're based in the Hague, Netherlands.

99
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: So what would happen? I mean, eventually, perhaps if let's

100
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: say they overthrow the Russian government the Russians do when

101
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: Putin flees or something, that would have to be he

102
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 1: gets caught some where, then they probably they could take

103
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 1: them to that court, right right, But they're not going

104
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 1: to go looking for him. You know, there's nobody going

105
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 1: to arrest physically. No, no, no, no. It would just

106
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: have to fall in their favor that he comes into.

107
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 1: I mean to think about the Nazis war criminals who

108
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: were chased after World War Two. It's kind of like that.

109
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: A lot of those guys got away. I guess they did.

110
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 1: I think there's a couple still alive in Argentina still

111
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 1: one hundred and ten or one hundred and ten. Yeah,

112
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,679
Speaker 1: they're still doing the salute every day. This was over

113
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 1: kidnapping Ukrainian children and taking them to Russia was the

114
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 1: main reason, the unlawful abduction and deportation of children right

115
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 1: from Ukraine to Russia. So the rest of the war

116
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 1: was legal. Okay, Yeah, I didn't you hear about all

117
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: the civilians that were killed and all the other war crimes.

118
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: But I guess they just went for this one first.

119
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: I think he may be the greatest murderer of the

120
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: twenty first century. Mostly his own people to mostly his

121
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 1: own people, and his own people just stand there and

122
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 1: let him destroy an entire generation of young men. Well,

123
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 1: because they're committed to the cause, the cause of what

124
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: they want to free Ukraine from the Nazis. He's still

125
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 1: not buying that it's not a free country. And what

126
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: he does he uses pro Russian sentiment in Ukraine to

127
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: make his own people believe everyone's like that, because there

128
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: are parts of Ukraine that are very pro Russian. As

129
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: we know they're obviously they've taken over some parts of

130
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: the country, but even before the war there were who cares.

131
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: That's why we have a hack in a dumpster? Well,

132
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: I mean that's the origins of it. It was a

133
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: parliament member who was two pro Russians, so the Ukrainians

134
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: threw him in the dumpster. He is Ukrainian, they threw

135
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: him in the dumpster. Yeah, I just don't get any

136
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: of these emotions, all these European emotions you're listing, whether

137
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: it's the French and their retirement age thirty years from now.

138
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: Everything perplexes you these days. They do. Human nature plexes

139
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: me because I asked why and nobody explains why. But

140
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: these stories just don't represent all the sentiment that's out there.

141
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 1: It's just some of what's going on. You make it

142
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: sound like, Oh the whole world's gone mad. Oh yeah,

143
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:10,559
Speaker 1: all right, we got more cup it up. Johnny Vint

144
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: told me why kf I AM six forty. We're live

145
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: everywhere the Iard radio app asking why and there's never

146
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: any answers. You're listening to John and Ken on demand

147
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: from kf I AM six forty. Later on the show,

148
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: we'll bring back the moist line after a two week

149
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: I like the word hiatus. And we also have a

150
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 1: hack for the dumpster in the three o'clock hour story

151
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: that's coming back today because apparently they made a big

152
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,959
Speaker 1: media show of it at being Newsome is the makeover

153
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: San Quentin. John, We're going to turn it into a

154
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 1: high end hotel for the really nasty, violent murderers. Alex

155
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 1: Stone is covering that story and it made news a

156
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:50,440
Speaker 1: couple of days ago and we talked about it. But

157
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: today's the big day where Newsom, I think wanted to

158
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 1: introduce it to the press. What they're going to do

159
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: with San Quentin to turn it into a Scandinavian style prison,

160
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: which that only work. You have to have it with

161
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 1: Scandinavians otherwise it's not gonna work. Also, since we're letting

162
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 1: all the prisoners out, Why spend any more money on

163
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 1: redoing the prisons here? Just letting them out anyway? Nine

164
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: prisoners union contracts. Oh sure, that's what everything is. All

165
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: these projects are to give jobs to union people who

166
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: donate money to the campaigns. Let's listen to a story

167
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: by my favorites, Los Angeles local television news name John Copelt,

168
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 1: just the name Fox eleven has done a story on

169
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: something we've been following. We actually threw this councilman in

170
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: the dumpster a couple of weeks ago. You go Soto

171
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 1: Martinez just got elected. He replaced Mitchell Farrell on the

172
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: Los Angeles City Council. He is a Democrat socialist, which

173
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 1: means he's basically a communist whoever you want to call it.

174
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: He really would like to overthrow a lot of the

175
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 1: way we do things in the United States. And one

176
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: of the first things he talked about, which is why

177
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: he went to the dumpster, is taking the fence down

178
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: at Echo Park Lake. A couple of years ago. That

179
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 1: was one of our big stories. That place got overrun

180
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:09,079
Speaker 1: by hundreds of vagrants camping out. It was disgusting and unsafe.

181
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: I still can't forget when they tested the water in

182
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 1: the lake. How disgusting they found it. Oh yeah, full

183
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 1: of fecal bacteria. They found they could have been birds. Though,

184
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,559
Speaker 1: it could have been birds, I heard right. No, it

185
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: wasn't birds. They had over two hundred homeless people that

186
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 1: were taking dumps in the lake, that's what it was.

187
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,599
Speaker 1: Or dropping their pailful of urine. Yeah, that's yeah, that

188
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: was That was the sewage system for the vagrants. I mean,

189
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 1: if you're lying on your tent or your tarp a

190
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 1: few feet away from the lake, you don't want to

191
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: get up and poop in the lake. You're just poop

192
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: in a box and then just throw it in there later, right, right,

193
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 1: But you can only live in your tent with so

194
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: much poop. So you got you got, you gotta go

195
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 1: to the lake one way or the other. So we

196
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 1: threw you go in the dumpster. But he did say

197
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: we should have thrown in the lake. That, Oh, that

198
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,199
Speaker 1: would have been great. You're right into Echo Park Lake

199
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: with the feasts, into Echo Park poop lake. Yeah, and

200
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 1: then test his bacteria levels. He said he would have

201
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: a town hall meeting before he moved on the next step.

202
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: What if this guy is such a bizarre fanatic. He's

203
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 1: filled with all kinds of sicko ideas and the whole

204
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: that whole section of La Everybody is just too timid there.

205
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what they're scared of. He's just a

206
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 1: silly socialist whack job. Well, we have the report about

207
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: what happened with last night's town hall meeting, and here

208
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 1: is my favorite reporter named Koco McAboy at El Centro

209
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: del Pueblo in Echo Park an emotional town hall meeting

210
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 1: with residents voicing concerns about safety at Echo Park Lake

211
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:45,079
Speaker 1: if the fence comes down. The meeting was held specifically

212
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 1: for Spanish speakers. He says, we want you to show

213
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 1: us that you're in control and we'll keep a safe

214
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 1: space in Echo Park like we deserve. That resident speaking

215
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 1: directly to newly elected council member Ugo Soto Martinez, Okay

216
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: pained on removing the fence at Echo Park Lake and

217
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 1: one what fences have been for historically for years their

218
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: band aids. The fence was put up around the iconic lake.

219
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: After a large encampment with more than one hundred and

220
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: eighty people was dismantled. The removal effort was met with

221
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 1: large protests that ended with crews closing the park. Thirty

222
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: five tons of toxic and human waste was cleaned up.

223
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 1: The fence has been up ever since, and residents say

224
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,679
Speaker 1: the park has changed. It returned back to what it

225
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: was prior to the encampments, and it's such a thriving opportunity.

226
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: You know, a fence does not divide people. The council

227
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 1: member believes the fence needs to come down eventually, but

228
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 1: this time, if someone does show up at the park

229
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,720
Speaker 1: because for whatever whatever got them to be on housed,

230
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: then we're going to have the team and ready to

231
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 1: lead with the services, so that makes sure that person

232
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 1: gets into as soon as possible. But pointing to the

233
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 1: encampment right outside of the meeting, some residents have doubts.

234
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: We feel powerless this new administration. It's not listening to

235
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 1: the community, but they're not moving an agenda. Residence Sada agrees.

236
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 1: She says it's for safety because we were not able

237
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 1: to go there in peace. We were afraid because there

238
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 1: were a lot of bad things going on there. But

239
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 1: not everyone shares that view. He says, I live at

240
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 1: the park for almost a year, and I am here

241
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 1: because I want to represent the unhoused community because there's

242
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: an idea that everyone unhoused or criminals, but he says

243
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 1: there was a time when they were like everyone else

244
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,559
Speaker 1: and they didn't get help. I want to be able

245
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,959
Speaker 1: to bring people together on this very polarizing issue. There

246
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: is no exact date for the fence to come down yet,

247
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 1: but residents hope when it does they're concerns will be heard.

248
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: There are real issues here that need to be addressed,

249
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 1: and there will be another town hall meeting held on

250
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 1: Saturday for English speakers. That should be better. I like

251
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 1: the way yukosdo. Martinez has two town hall meetings, one

252
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 1: for people speaking Spanish and then the one coming up.

253
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 1: You notice a lot of the Spanish speakers. Those are

254
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: residents of the community too. They'd like the fence. Did

255
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 1: you get that? Of course only once you put in

256
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: there that was in favor of bringing the fence down

257
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: when some guy was homeless living there. Well, people should

258
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 1: know that nobody's denied access to the park during the day.

259
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: The fence works at night because they can lock it.

260
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: They could chain it up and keep the vagrants out,

261
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 1: because the vagrants would go there at night and settle

262
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: in and take route. What did we learn that a

263
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: lot of the people that live around that lake apparently

264
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: are immigrants, and they live in like apartment buildings and

265
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: don't have a yard or any place any green space.

266
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 1: So they were going there until until the vagrants took over.

267
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: And now we're hearing them at this town hall meeting

268
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 1: because the fence was making it safer to go there

269
00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: again with their kids. Send in the clean lake. If

270
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 1: they're citizens. How many of them voted for this kuk

271
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: Hugo Soda Martinez. I mean, who the hell would vote

272
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 1: for him? I mean he was nobody voted. I should

273
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 1: take a look at the vote he was up against.

274
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 1: He was up against the old knuckle head there the

275
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: cruise ship dancer. Yea yeah, who's who's an idiot? But

276
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: this guy is an idiot squared. No. His first priorities

277
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: to bring the fence down with all the problems probably

278
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: in his district, this is his first priority. I want

279
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: to bring the fence to make life. To destroy the

280
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 1: park again, Hugo Soda Martinez is because is going to

281
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 1: destroy that park for a second time. How many millions

282
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 1: did we spend cleaning that up? How many tons of

283
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: garbage and human waste. Did she say that they collected?

284
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 1: How foul was that lake? I can't believe this guy

285
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 1: ran on a platform to bring all the fecal waste

286
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 1: back to Echo Park Lake and let's refill the lake

287
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: with everyone's human waste. That's it. That's his mission and

288
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: his bs in there. We're gonna have out reached teams there,

289
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 1: so if any homeless person tries to come and camp

290
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: in the park, we're gonna find out why they're unhoused

291
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: and we're gonna take them for services. Yet, like the

292
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 1: ladies said, why why is there an encampment outside right

293
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 1: outside the park? Then? Why is oh there is one? Yeah? Yeah,

294
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: I was mentioned in the in the story there that

295
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: they were pointing at the encampment. That's what they were

296
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: worried about, that the vagrants would just camp right around

297
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 1: out right because you have to constantly and in the

298
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: neighborhood and I have to constantly chase them out. You're

299
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: not fixing these people. You are not fixing these people.

300
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: They're drug add exmental patients, the ones that are living outdoors,

301
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: drug addiclemental patients. There's no fixing that. There's no program,

302
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 1: and you can't force them to go to one anyway.

303
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: The hell I mean, I mean, honestly, at these people

304
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: all like five years old. We told you a couple

305
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 1: of weeks ago about a nonprofit that runs these hotels

306
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 1: on skid Row in downtown Los Angeles. It's gone bankrupt, uh,

307
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 1: skid Row Housing Trust twenty nine buildings they own. There's

308
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: an update on the story because one of the reasons

309
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 1: they're going bust is they can't do the upkeep on

310
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: these hotels. They were formerly hotels and then they've been

311
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: turned into quote homeless residential houses and the vagrants keep

312
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 1: destroying the apartments. Well, yeah, there's there's a more detail

313
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 1: on it that the Alsagundo Times just published today about

314
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:23,919
Speaker 1: these horrible buildings and why this is another failure, especially

315
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:25,679
Speaker 1: if you're gonna put all the homeless people together in

316
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 1: one building. Oh my god, that's a recipe for disaster.

Speaker 1: long after we finish up at four o' Well, we

326
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,719
Speaker 1: have kind of confirmed this story, and we thought this

327
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: was going to happen. Apparently as Santa Monica City employee

328
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: acting as an ambassador was stabbed when they tried to

329
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 1: rouse an individual sleeping in the area of Palisades Park.

330
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: Oh no, yeah, this happens. We go f our walks

331
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 1: every day there. Well, it happened near the Santa Monica Beach,

332
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 1: responded to a report eight fifteen in the morning. This

333
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: is a Wednesday, I guess an ambassador near the Do

334
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 1: you know where the Camera Obscura building is Palisades Park? No,

335
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: I don't know that. Okay, Well that's where the supposedly

336
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: this happened. When they got there, they found the victim

337
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:45,880
Speaker 1: being stabbed in the upper torso fifteen in the morning. Yes,

338
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 1: I mean seriously, My wife and I take anywhere from

339
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,120
Speaker 1: three to five walks a week through that park. Well,

340
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: they have detained Alan Cranford Barna, age forty. He fled

341
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: the area. But they tracked him down and we were

342
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 1: afraid of this, especially now with the Metro you maney

343
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,919
Speaker 1: of they dispatched like a thousand ambassadors or something for

344
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 1: the trains and subways. You need you need the police

345
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,360
Speaker 1: to do this. What is wrong? What is wrong with

346
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, John? Homeless people aren't violent. All you's

347
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 1: out there to do is to try to say, hey,

348
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 1: you can't sleep here. There's plenty of them, and I'm

349
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 1: sure the homeless personal says that's fine, You're right, I

350
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,160
Speaker 1: should leave here. Here's a message from the real world.

351
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 1: Plenty of them are violent, plenty of them have criminal records,

352
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 1: and our mental patients and have bad drug addictions. That's

353
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 1: the real world, not this fantasy world. You couldn't pay

354
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 1: most people enough to do that ambassador job. That's hard

355
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: to believe anybody would want to do that. Stabbed in

356
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 1: the chest, stabbed in the chest. Well, all right, so

357
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 1: now we go. All right, now, let's move over to

358
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: skid Row in downtown Los Angeles. We had mentioned a

359
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago. They're also going to do times

360
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: to the story about a nonprofit that was running into

361
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 1: severe financial trouble. Imagine that they're running into severe financial

362
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 1: trouble because they housed homeless people in old hotels. How

363
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: could that happen? I'm as shocked as SVB going up

364
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,919
Speaker 1: Silicon Valley Dining skid Row Housing Trust. They owned twenty

365
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: nine buildings. They've been added for more than thirty years,

366
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 1: but for a while at the beginning, basically whoever was

367
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,160
Speaker 1: owning the hotels was running things. But they pulled out

368
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 1: like years ago, and since then, thirty years ago, there

369
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,919
Speaker 1: was hardly a homeless issue. Yes, that's correct, and I

370
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 1: think after seven or eight years the original owners, who

371
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 1: I guess part of the agreement was they would stay

372
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 1: around and maintain the buildings, they pulled out. So now

373
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 1: it's been left up to this nonprofit to maintain the buildings,

374
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:48,639
Speaker 1: and it's disgusting and the story by Doug Smith. The

375
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 1: degraded state of the Sandborn Hotel apartments is apparent from

376
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 1: the sidewalk holes have been smashed and the wire reinforced

377
00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 1: windows of its front doors. One of the latches doesn't work.

378
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 1: The building is open to intruders who roam the halls

379
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,360
Speaker 1: at night, turning door knobs trying to get into open

380
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 1: apartments inside a rancid smell permeates the hallway, begging for Lysaul.

381
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: He writes, Oh, the manager's office is dark and empty.

382
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 1: Residents say it's it has been since the last occupant

383
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 1: left last summer. In bathroom number two on the second floor.

384
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,160
Speaker 1: There's no water in the tonnet, but plenty of human waste.

385
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 1: Oh god, And this is what our tax money goes for. Yeah,

386
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,400
Speaker 1: this is funded by I guess by LA city money. Yes.

387
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,639
Speaker 1: And nonprofit gets this money to house the home because

388
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 1: it's under the Los Angeles Housing Department. Is this what

389
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 1: mayor beast SETTI wants is tons of more of these

390
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 1: type of hotels that they're decrepile, disjusting, an unsafe. This

391
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: is where they're putting the homeless that they claim to

392
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 1: be getting off the streets. They're putting them in these ancient,

393
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 1: dilapidated hotels. I know. I afraid of this story though,

394
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 1: because I think they're gonna look at us and say, say,

395
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:02,679
Speaker 1: we can't do this. We've got to spread the homeless

396
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 1: out into communities. So we only have a couple living

397
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 1: next door to John coblt. No, that's like I can't

398
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 1: have a high rise full of homeless. It will be destroyed.

399
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 1: These hotels, they're gonna lease the house next to you.

400
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 1: These hotels are over one hundred years old. The Sanborn

401
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: was opened in nineteen o eight. They have tiny rooms,

402
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,120
Speaker 1: common bathrooms in kitchens. That's how they built hotels back then.

403
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 1: Not a whole lot of people traveled, right, and so

404
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: they didn't put money into an apartment or a room

405
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 1: having its own bathroom. Right, And they're disgusting. Obviously they're

406
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: one hundred and ten years old. Yes, and of course

407
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: they got the raw ross statement from the trust's interim

408
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: chief executive in chief of staff. I meant about that

409
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: job permanently, did Joanne Cordero. We continue to focus on

410
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: transitioning our property to providers who are willing able to

411
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: provide ongoing housing and services to our residents. We're inspired

412
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,360
Speaker 1: by our staff working tiresly. Oh God, I can't stay.

413
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: Why did everyone talk like that? Now? Why don't they say, Hey,

414
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 1: we're broke, we're bankrupt, we're out of money. We don't

415
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 1: have any employees who care anymore. Can't even get a

416
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 1: manager to run that building. But I think we can't

417
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 1: afford to pay one. She is the one that in

418
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,479
Speaker 1: the last el Segundo time story did admit that our

419
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 1: problem is some of the homeless people are trashing the

420
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 1: rules two three times over. Yes, she did admit that. Well,

421
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: because they're like, well, what's wrong here, Well, we can't

422
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,160
Speaker 1: afford to keep paying to renovate the rooms. They're getting

423
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 1: destroyed over and over. It it's the truth because again

424
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 1: I sound like broken records, but when you have psychotics

425
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 1: and drug addicts living in these hotels exclusively, what are

426
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 1: you gonna get. They're gonna have some kind of episode

427
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 1: and destroy the place. That's what they're doing, and they're

428
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: leaving all their human waste behind. They talked to Jerry

429
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: and Jovan Banks, who's lived in the building since twenty sixteen.

430
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 1: This should sound familiar. There wasn't clerk when he moved in.

431
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,440
Speaker 1: There wasn't a lot of foot traffic. You felt safe.

432
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,360
Speaker 1: Now it's bad. It's the bad to the point where

433
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: I do not feel safe. So you can see, John, Well,

434
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: we've been talking about the last six or seven years. Yeah,

435
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 1: the uptick thanks to may Or yoga pants and Prop

436
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 1: Prop forty seven and all that stuff has made things

437
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: so much worse with the problem that the worst of

438
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,920
Speaker 1: the worst vagrants are being thrown into this hotel and

439
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: they're they're trashing the place and they're thieves, right, so

440
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: I mean better better they're dragged off the streets. Not

441
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 1: that these people stay inside there are there are apartments

442
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: all day. I mean they probably spend the day wandering

443
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: around buying their drugs and screaming in the streets. But

444
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,840
Speaker 1: I guess at night they're supposed to go to bed there.

445
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: Here's the number. Thirteen of the Sandborns, forty one units

446
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 1: have been declared uninhabitable by the Housing Authority of the

447
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,120
Speaker 1: City of La After tenant's like, it's uninhabitable, it's not, Oh,

448
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 1: it's it's a little dirty. It's got a security deposit, yeah, Trey.

449
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,879
Speaker 1: Oh we gotta just unclogged the toilet and vacuum the

450
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: maybe maybe some paint. No uninhabitable, can you imagine probably

451
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:10,679
Speaker 1: poop and bedded in the walls. Oh yeah. Residents say

452
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 1: they've had little contact with case managers. Some tenants caused

453
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,360
Speaker 1: problems for others. On the third floor, behind the door

454
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 1: wedged open with a roll of toilet paper, a young

455
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 1: man stared up from a mattress on the floor, unable

456
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 1: to cross this tiny room through a waist HiPE pile

457
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 1: of items or a bike on top. Okay, it's they

458
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,679
Speaker 1: take their outdoor office, their tent office and they just

459
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: bring it indoors, right, But it is the same psychotic

460
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: behavior because their brains don't function anymore. You imagine having

461
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 1: a waist high pile of garbage with a bike on top,

462
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,160
Speaker 1: and you can't find your way out of your mattress.

463
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 1: They got twenty nine of these buildings, the Dewey hotel apartments.

464
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: Apparently the roof it was full of mold. Fire broke

465
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 1: out in the second floor. Yeah, they had to move

466
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: the twenty two people into other buildings. They're abandoned slum buildings.

467
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 1: That's what they are. They are. And like I said,

468
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 1: if you're going to crowd a bunch of homeless people

469
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 1: together in a building, it's just not right. And what

470
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: what what has this uh skid Row Housing Trust? What

471
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: have they done with all the all the tax money

472
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:15,119
Speaker 1: and all the donation money that they've got spending on renovation? Yeah? Yeah,

473
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 1: or or there's something funny going on. Maybe they don't

474
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 1: have the money available anymore. Maybe they're not spending it

475
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: on security. Because people are saying that then the manager

476
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: is not even at that building anywhere at the same board.

477
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 1: I think an audit would be very entertaining. But you're right, John,

478
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 1: these buildings are over one hundred years old, so they're antiquated.

479
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: This and this, this is what best setting. They do

480
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,960
Speaker 1: have common bathrooms, right because these an old hotel models

481
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,919
Speaker 1: who imagine this is what Best said. He's bragging about

482
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 1: though she and her silly spokesholes are bragging about putting

483
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:49,120
Speaker 1: homeless people lately into these hotels. There is these kinds

484
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 1: of hotels which is going to be good for a

485
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 1: couple of months until they destroy all the furniture and

486
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 1: leave piles of feces all over the all over the room.

487
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: Then what the store he ends with. One tenant said,

488
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:03,439
Speaker 1: the other day, I went to the trash shoot. I

489
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 1: opened the door. There was somebody inside the room. They

490
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 1: were hitting the pipe because they were smoking crackers something.

491
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFIM sixty.

492
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 1: All right, A lot of show to come. But if

493
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 1: you can't listen to these three hours live, if you

494
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 1: are right now, I guess you, well, whyeb you can't

495
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: stay with the show all three hours? You've always pick

496
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 1: up the podcast at KFIAM six forty dot com and

497
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 1: also on the iHeartRadio app. Everything's put up there not

498
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 1: long after we finish up the show at four o'clock,

499
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 1: and we will finish up the show with the moistline.

500
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:37,639
Speaker 1: That'll be the last thing we do. Coming up at

501
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 1: the end of the three o'clock hour here on KFI.

502
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 1: Next hour, more phoniness from the Los Angeles County District

503
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,880
Speaker 1: Attorney George Gascone. Find out what move he made, which

504
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,919
Speaker 1: again makes him a complete hypocrite when it comes to

505
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,880
Speaker 1: what he is doing to destroy the criminal justice set

506
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 1: of system and the County of Los Angeles. No, we

507
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,360
Speaker 1: haven't talked about in a while. John is our beloved

508
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: Vice president Kamala Harris and a neighbor of John Cobilts

509
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 1: on the West Side. Yeah, not that far away. He

510
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 1: ran into her in the grocery store famously years ago

511
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: after she lost her primary or gave up running from president.

512
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,400
Speaker 1: That's right, when she surrendered. She only got like two

513
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: percent of the vote or something like. Yeah, I think

514
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 1: she dropped out before the primaries began, before they she

515
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,200
Speaker 1: did drop it, Yeah, because well, because everyone she was

516
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 1: in a debate though, wasn't she was? She was because

517
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 1: she challenged Biden on a race or something and she

518
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,159
Speaker 1: was so bad that she had two percent and she

519
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,879
Speaker 1: doesn't like but but supposedly he looked at her that

520
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:36,639
Speaker 1: day and thought this is the person I want. You

521
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: don't believe that story. Biden said, no, she's strong and

522
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 1: she challenged, you know, busting and stuff like that. He

523
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 1: had maybe three choices because he said it was going

524
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 1: to be a black woman, and there's only so many

525
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 1: black women who have risen high enough in politics. So yeah,

526
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: Kevila Harris had Karen Bass was the second choice, and

527
00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 1: I think there was one politician from Florida. Must be

528
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: a black woman too, Yeah, black woman too, because that

529
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: was his determination. Yeah. No, there there was only a

530
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 1: handful of people that you could plausibly straight. Not Maxine Waters.

531
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 1: She's ninety five years old. Oh I thought she was

532
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 1: younger than Biden. No, maybe she's not. I think she's

533
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 1: actually older than He's older than I know Pelosi's older

534
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 1: than Biden, but she just wears a wig. So you

535
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: can't tell. You really need a new wave of people,

536
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:28,400
Speaker 1: don't we How many years have been on K five,

537
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 1: they're still there? The same hacks we talk about. I

538
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,479
Speaker 1: know local government changes a bit, state government changes a bit,

539
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 1: But man, the federal government, that's a lifetime job, isn't it. Yeah,

540
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 1: no term limits. It's like being a Supreme Court judge.

541
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 1: I know I'm ensconced. Well anyway, the vice president showed

542
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 1: up at an NCAA basketball game with the Second Gentleman.

543
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 1: I know you love it when we say that. The

544
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 1: second Gentleman, by the way, he's a weener. I heard

545
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: him talking the other day. Oh yeah, I had some opinion.

546
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 1: He was blowing his mouth off. Forgot what it was.

547
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: Doug Mhoff. He's a lawyer, isn't he. Yeah, he's a lawyer.

548
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: He's a wiener. Come on. The location is Des Moines, Iowa,

549
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 1: where her album, She's an album, amout of Howard University,

550
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 1: which everyone now has to refer to as an HBCU.

551
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,959
Speaker 1: If you see that term, it means historically Black college

552
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: and University, right, I always see that now with references

553
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 1: to talking about colleges. She went to Howard. She has

554
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: a Bachelor of Arts and Political Science and economics. Back

555
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 1: in the eighties, so she showed up in a suite

556
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 1: at the Wells Fargo Arena yesterday to see her team

557
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: take on one of the powerhouses, the Kansas Jayhawks, and

558
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 1: they got blown out. There's a report, and I guess

559
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: we don't have the audio that when they put her

560
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: face on the big screen there were booze. Yes, there

561
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 1: were a lot of booze. The article points out, though,

562
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: that the Iowa was won by Trump and probably not

563
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: a friend play see Associated Press as the booze outweighed

564
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 1: the cheers. Okay, but you're in Kansas, so right, did

565
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 1: they play in Kansas? Where did they play? No? No No, no,

566
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: des Moines, same thing. Yeah, there are probably a lot

567
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: of Kansas people that I've been. I know, I've been

568
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 1: to Kansas and Ioway. It's exactly the same place. Uh,

569
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 1: same place. And you wanted to move to Nebraska too,

570
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 1: So we're waiting for that day to come. Oh I could.

571
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 1: Didn't you say you were obsessed with Omaha? You found

572
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 1: it to be an Omaha is incredibly played. The people

573
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 1: in the Midwest are very pleasant, they're very large, very

574
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 1: up with you. That probably they'd ask me to leave. Yeah, yeah,

575
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 1: you're too opinionated. Yeah yeah, but there'd be a well,

576
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 1: not in public, you're not just if you've got a

577
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 1: radio show there, there'd be a lot fewer things to

578
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 1: set me off there. Well. Uh, apparently she had a

579
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 1: little statement to make after her team got blown out

580
00:31:53,760 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 1: by Kansas. Here's part of it. Played, are you played

581
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: to the very last secondary? You made all us bison

582
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:13,400
Speaker 1: so sold? You show the world who Bison are? What

583
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 1: you know? I was at Howard back in the day

584
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: where we were just happy that there was a game.

585
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: Much let's get into this place. She's Bay and I

586
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: see bison literally all over the world, and we've been

587
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 1: talking about you. This team. You make us so crap.

588
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 1: So I know you may not be feeling great right now, okay,

589
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 1: but know who you are. You are excellent. They lost

590
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: by twenty eight. What she talked to them, but they

591
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 1: played right to the end. She talked to them like

592
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 1: they kind have walked off the court. So teams are

593
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 1: down by twenty just a we quit like they were

594
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 1: eight years old. Though. That's how she speaks at public

595
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 1: all the time. We've played somebody of these clips, remember

596
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 1: the Space program and the electric buses. She always speaks

597
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 1: to people as if they're little children. I know, she

598
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: sounds like a preschool teacher us Bisons. I've met Bisons

599
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 1: all over the world. That's their nickname, The Howard Bisons are.

600
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 1: It's like a Jim Baree class. Yeah, I don't really

601
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 1: that somebody that can take her aside and tell her that,

602
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 1: you know, this kind of weird, childish enthusiasm you have

603
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: is embarrassing. Maybe that's how she speaks that who she is.

604
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 1: That's her way of trying to amp people up. She's

605
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 1: talking like she's talking to child Would you all like

606
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 1: a treat? Now? Have you ever met a professional woman

607
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 1: who does that? I have not the only tell mommies

608
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 1: in the park and Jim Boree teachers talk like that,

609

Speaker 1: you are excellence. I think if you ever had one

610
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: of these inspirational motivational speakers come in, sometimes they can

611
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 1: be like that, maybe don't sound as childish. They usually

612
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 1: have to get you amped up and excited. They have

613
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 1: a kick ass delivery. If they're doing motivation, they're not

614

621
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,680
