John's lonely 30 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: without you, you know, so while you were gone, I've 31 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: started to consider becoming a vegan. Really. Yeah. I went 32 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: to the Paul McCartney concert last Friday. Hey, so did I? 33 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: You did? I didn't see you there. I didn't see 34 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: you there. I did go too. It's weird. Well, no, 35 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: I was gonna I was gonna ask you that because 36 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: you know, you took Friday off two and I thought maybe, 37 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 1: But yeah, I was there. I was there too. That 38 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: it was very good. Well yeah, and he's gonna be 39 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,519 Speaker 1: eighty in a month. Yes, And I think you'd agree 40 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: that that's not the movement in performance of an eighty 41 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: year old it's not right. So I'm thinking maybe it's 42 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: the it's the vegan lifestyle. Maybe I'm wrong he's a 43 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: vegan or a vegetarian, or I think he's an all 44 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: out vegan. I didn't I know for a long time 45 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: when he and the wife Linda used to promote that. Yeah, 46 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: I think right. So I'm thinking because he's six months 47 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: older than Joe Biden. Okay, and he certainly made more sense. 48 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: But he spoke and yeah, and the movements, I mean 49 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: two hours and forty minutes. Did you notice he never 50 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: took a break. Yeah. I read reviews because he was 51 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: up in the Bay Area before he got down here, 52 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: and that's what they said. It was amazing all he 53 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: did with switch instruments. One time he took a glass 54 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 1: of water. I saw that. That was about it. That 55 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: was it. But there was no intermission. There was no intermission. 56 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: Really spoke a few times, not a lot, a few 57 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: times to the crowd. No, no guest singer. No, the 58 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 1: band plays for fifteen minutes by itself. There was there was. 59 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: I was just yeah. The only thing it annoyed me. 60 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: Show starts promptly at seven thirty, so I got there 61 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: at seven thirty show started at eight thirty. Yeah, I know, 62 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: just some DJ was playing Beatles songs and it was 63 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,839 Speaker 1: cool videos to look at. But I was like, really, yeah, 64 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: I thought, because he's seventy nine, maybe there's serious to 65 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: get back to the home. He can't stay up to 66 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: eleven or no, I know, because I can't. I was 67 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: I was pushing my wife because you know what it's 68 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: like to drive from the West Side all the way 69 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: to uh yeah, just so so five right, which is 70 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: why I took the day off, because I figured there's 71 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: no way I was gonna make it for Burnbank to 72 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: so far I've tried to do that kind of root 73 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: and that that takes like take three hours. That turns 74 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: out you would have had plenty of time. Well, yeah, 75 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: they left Burbank and she kept probably gotten there by 76 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: eight thirty. He kept say, why are we going so early? 77 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: I go, it's just promptly at seven thirty. Promptly, I 78 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: said the sage, so we're pro anything. She's looking at 79 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: me at quarter after eight, properly at seven thirty. That 80 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: band is tremendous. I think they've been together like twenty years. 81 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: They are fantastic. Yeah, he was good, and his voice 82 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: is still strong. But they were just yeah, that that 83 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 1: has great, had everything perfect? That that that drummer putting 84 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 1: on a show back there they have a guitarist though, 85 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: I mean just the flawless show, just just perfect, very good. 86 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: But I'm telling you it was in twenty nineteen. We 87 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,919 Speaker 1: missed it at Dodger Stadium, Ringo star showed up. I 88 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: saw that one. Oh, that's right, you did see that 89 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: when I saw Ringo starring Vegas, so I kind of 90 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: have seen them both, but not together. Yeah, now that 91 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 1: that was. That was a cool moment when Ringo came out. 92 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 1: Because they had not pre announced it, I figured something 93 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: like that was going to happen, but it never did. Right, 94 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: he went solo the whole way. You're not going to 95 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: Elton John too because I am in November. No, I 96 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: didn't know he was coming in November. Did Dodger Stadium? November? 97 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: I supposedly the last time he's been on this farewell tour, 98 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 1: but then COVID came. I don't know, a lot of 99 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: people think it's a joke. He's not really the last 100 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 1: thing McCartney retiring. McCartney said at the very end, he goes, 101 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: we'll see you soon. I think, yeah, he's not stopping. 102 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: Oh my should I mean, but Elton's always talking about 103 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: this is it? So? Yeah? I think they actually called 104 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: it like the final final farewell tour. But then but 105 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: then they go home and they sit there and what 106 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: am I gonna do? That's right. It does keep them 107 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: and they really feed off the crowd. Yeah, I mean that. Look, 108 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: I don't mean I've never they added an extra show 109 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: at Dodger Stadium. Should look into it. Oh, just an 110 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: extra show. I saw him a long time ago, and 111 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: I think it was in at point of the Atlantic 112 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: City Casinos when we were back there, and it was 113 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: kind of a dud of a show. Elton John, Yeah, 114 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: he was say he puts on he does, That's why 115 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: I was disappointed. But he kind of seemed in a 116 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: glum mood and he just sat at the piano playing 117 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: and there was there was no Yeah, there there some 118 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 1: John and Ken shows. They were like, oh yeah, sure 119 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: every day, just not in the mood. We can't think 120 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: it so because to be too for a guy singing. 121 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 1: Because they just even tricked the Rolling Stones. And I 122 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 1: think it's the casinos, because we saw the Rolling Stones 123 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: at an Atlantic City casino and they were really flat. 124 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: I've seen him out here. I remember when you went 125 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 1: to see the Rolling Stones. Yeah, I think the casinos, 126 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: or maybe it's working for Trump. Oh, it deflated them, 127 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 1: I know. I remember reading it doesn't pay. No, I 128 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: remember reading that Trump got into a big fight with 129 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,679 Speaker 1: the Rolling Stones right before the start of their concert. 130 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: Is that right? Yeah? Yeah, I read this somewhere a 131 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: long time ago, a couple of times. So he had 132 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: some big dispute, probably something over money, I don't know, 133 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: and they just went out and they they were fled. 134 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 1: They tanked it. They put out a tur This was 135 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: an f you to Trump. Yeah, well, Vegan animal lady, 136 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: it's a good thing you weren't here yesterday. I have 137 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: a feeling. I know. A listener sent me a message 138 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: on social media. Monkey pox. No, no, I will have 139 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: more than that, far worse than that. The buffalo shooter 140 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: he be headed a cat. God. Yeah, oh, I gotta 141 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: tell you. And I realized this later. John his parents 142 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: or engineers. So there was something scientific about the way 143 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: he writes his journals. Yes, because it's full of detailed 144 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: debrah and you don't want to know. John read some 145 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: of it on the air. So yeah, of course he did. Well, 146 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: it's the public's right to know. No, I think those 147 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: types of details nobody wants to. I think as soon 148 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: as a kid does that to a cat, you put 149 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: him in a mental institution forever. Yeah, you have to. Yeah, 150 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: that's that's what should have been done. And then the 151 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: parents knew about it, and he wrote about it online. 152 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: He should have been locked up because nothing good is 153 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: going to follow that. I would say, not all mass 154 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: killers tortured and killed animals, but people who tortured and 155 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: kill animals are probably going to turn out to be 156 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: violent people. Yeah, I mean there won't be mass killers. 157 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: They'll do something horrific. I can go with that. I 158 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,679 Speaker 1: can go with that stereotype. Lock up anybody who kills 159 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: a cat, especially in that brutal way he did. No, 160 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: So it was a good day to miss yesterday. I'm 161 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: glad I did well. Just to welcome you back, I 162 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: got another animal story. Well, come on, kad, you know 163 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: I had such a great vacation. I'm back here and 164 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: I'm depressed. They're not very high on my hierarchy, right, 165 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: you know, I care more about cats than this. This 166 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: is Canadian geese. They're ready to gas them up in 167 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: Foster City. Why literally, Um, well, too many of them. 168 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 1: They're too many of them. They're pooping everywhere. They're fouling 169 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: up the waters. He's had to close the beaches because 170 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 1: of all the E. Coli from goose poop. It's apparently 171 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 1: they budget a lot of money. They allocated twenty thousand 172 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: to forty five thousand dollars. Um. Well, this is more 173 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: recent for a geese mitigation plan. They're trying to figure 174 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: out how to reduce the population. That's what gassing is called. 175 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: That's what the animal rights people are saying that they're 176 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: going to bring in mobile gas chambers. Okay again, I'm 177 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,319 Speaker 1: going to say what I always say. There has to 178 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: be a better way. You want to hear the process, No, 179 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: I'll tell you I don't want to hear the process. 180 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: Thanks for asking. Um, they're gonna freeze and burn their 181 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 1: lungs for forty five minutes before and finally killing them. 182 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: Oh my god. They have tried, Deborah. They said the 183 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:34,199 Speaker 1: following methods fogging, birth control, dog hazing, strobe lights, egg addling. 184 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: I don't know what that one is. Fencing. All of 185 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: them have failed. Sanctuary. Well, just gather them up and 186 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: take into a sanctuary. Exactly. I'm sure they fly away, 187 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: don't they covered a sanctuary? You better have a roof. 188 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: So's it's just what about thirty Yeah it is twenty 189 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: three geese. Okay, so that's manageable. There's no reason for this. 190 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 1: I'm sure there is an animal rights group that would 191 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: be willing to take them. See the Foster City Beach. 192 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 1: This is northern California, among the top ten most polluted 193 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: in the state. Yeah, it's from this. It's the geese poop. Okay, 194 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: that's fine. Then move the geese somewhere else. You don't 195 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: need to gas them. You don't need to be barbaric 196 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: like that. That's and I remember John, when we were 197 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: in New Jersey. I used to walk in a park 198 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,839 Speaker 1: where there were tons of these things, and they could 199 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 1: be nasty. There was poop, I mean literally everywhere, all 200 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: the grass and the pathways. It was like so funny. 201 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: So you're anti goose, Well, I just you know, I'd 202 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 1: be willing to give her. I don't know why they 203 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: can't just pack them up and take them, like a 204 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: thousand miles away. There's no fly back though, you think 205 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 1: deport them well, yeah, probably they probably do. Fly is 206 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: their migration place, right. It's like Jerk will show you. Okay, 207 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: you know what. I don't love zoos, but put them 208 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 1: in a zoo. Do people care about Canadian geese in 209 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: a zoo. No one's gonna go see geese. They're not 210 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: going to maybe just go to see geese, but I'm 211 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: sure they'll enjoy seeing them once they're there. It's a 212 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: bunch of demonstrators showed up at the Foster City Hall. 213 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: Let the geese live, geese have feelings just like us. 214 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: Wearing gas masks, they set up a smoke machine, propped 215 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: up a pen with fake goose corpses trying to get 216 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 1: the Foster City government. They glued themselves to the geese. Yeah, 217 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:38,319 Speaker 1: they that's a little extra. I'll do that, thank you. 218 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: The first story is euthanizing geese. There you go. We 219 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 1: got more John again gap. At five o'clock, we're gonna 220 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,319 Speaker 1: have a candidate for state office on the show. It's 221 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 1: not for governor. It's been endorsed by the Olcagondo Times, 222 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: but this person is a Republican puzzled. Puzzled. It's Landy Chen, 223 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 1: who's running for Controller we'll talk to us. He would 224 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: be in charge of the money. And it shows you 225 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: even the twittheads at the LA Times realize that the 226 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: spending situation and the fraud situation in Sacramento is so 227 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: out of control they are willing to endorse a Republican Wow, 228 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 1: what does it tell you about how bad it actually is? 229 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 1: I think they said something just to keep an eye 230 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,199 Speaker 1: on things. Yeah, why is that all of a sudden? 231 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 1: Why are you so interested in that? What do they 232 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: know that they haven't published? The first thing I thought of, 233 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,359 Speaker 1: they must know stuff. There's stuff coming down the pipeline, 234 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 1: and I think they just want to get newsom in. 235 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 1: And then I think that you're gonna hear a lot 236 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: of dirty stories about what's happened to all our money. Yeah. 237 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: So the emphasis now with the media because they got 238 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: to go back and forth and find whatever there is 239 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 1: to talk about concerning COVID is you know, case numbers, 240 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: hospitalizations and deaths haven't really moved, but you case, oh 241 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: it's back. But this development is kind of interesting because 242 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: when we talked about COVID yesterday, the conclusion again is 243 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 1: we really don't know what the hell is going on. 244 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: Feiser has an anti viral drug, packs Levid, and it's 245 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: been a breakthrough as a treatment for COVID nineteen. However, 246 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: they're finding that after some people finish their course of 247 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 1: the medication, COVID comes back. Yeah, and they test positive 248 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: again and they feel run down and sick again. I 249 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: know so well, I know somebody that happened too. They 250 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: took pack lead. Yeah, they had like they had moderate 251 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:40,680 Speaker 1: COVID symptoms, not not terrible, but they took packs Levid 252 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,199 Speaker 1: and it's a five day course and the symptoms stopped 253 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: right away and by five days, yeah, feeling great. Then 254 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:52,679 Speaker 1: a few days later fever came back. Did they try 255 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: to get more because that's what the well, the story says, 256 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 1: don't do that yet until we see if it's Yeah. 257 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean I didn't. I don't know 258 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: if you can. But I had read that man in 259 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: some research story that flew by. Is that some people 260 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 1: reporting that it doesn't kill it. It's supposed to stop 261 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: the virus from replicating. Yes, which that's the idea, but 262 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: I guess if you just have one little viral microbe 263 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: left in the system, they start reproducing again. So they 264 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: admitted to the FDA and they're testing well. The FDA 265 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: n said that during the clinical trials, around one to 266 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: two percent of patients who completed the five day treatment 267 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: did test positive again after initially testing negative or showed 268 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: actual increased levels of the virus. But they said the 269 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: same thing happened to people have got a placebo. So 270 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 1: they're not sure he's anything to do with the drug. 271 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: It just could be that the drug doesn't you know, 272 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: it's only going to last so long in your body 273 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: to do any good against the virus. And they're saying, 274 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: just drug blocks an enzyme the virus needs to reproduce. 275 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: That's still found to cut hospitalization of death in the 276 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 1: high risk people by eighty nine percent. It definitely has taking. Yeah, 277 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 1: it has an effect. Yeah, it's it's just and in 278 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: the second round didn't come back that strongly for that long, 279 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: but it's just not one hundred percent shutdown. Yes, So 280 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 1: these are good for people twelve and older who are 281 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: considered a higher risk from COVID nineteen. The old underlying 282 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: conditions or the fact that you are probably sixty five 283 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: and older is they're recommending, And I think it helps 284 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: take it quickly. I think in that way it's kind 285 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 1: of like tamiflu. Tamiflu will stop the flu virus, but 286 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: you have to take it right away once you get symptoms. 287 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: Same thing with zinc lozenges. The zinc lozenges stop the 288 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: virus from replicating in your throat if you have a cold. 289 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 1: But if you wait more than a couple of days 290 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: and we'll do any good, then it's out of hand. Yeah. 291 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: One of the doctors in the study where in the 292 00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:00,040 Speaker 1: article said that most people have a great experience with it. 293 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 1: I had at least one patient that had a rebound, 294 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: but the rebound illness was much milder. The symptoms were 295 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: minimal compared to the first round of COVID. So it's 296 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: a story that gets headlines. Well you look beyond it, 297 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: but it still shows you we don't know everything well 298 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 1: you know, and medical people have to show confidence. That's 299 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: what drives me crazy sometimes. Yeah, you have to convince people, 300 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: even if you don't fully believe it. You have to 301 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: convince people. Well, no, no convincing me. I'm skeptical of 302 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: all of them. I know they want to sell their product. 303 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: I know their their stock price depends on pushing packs 304 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 1: lavid So even if it works, only in a half 305 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: assed way. They have to move product. Yeah, I mean 306 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: writing twenty thousand prescriptions today across the country. Right, So 307 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: that's and this is why drugs and vaccines normally take 308 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: years and years. All this stuff's been rushed. So that's 309 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: why the vaccine is. Its effectiveness is tapered off packs. 310 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 1: LAVID tapers off. They they didn't build it to be forever. 311 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: I like the way the dean of the National School 312 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 1: of Tropical Medicine that Houston's Baylor College of Medicine tweeted out, 313 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: well thought COVID was over five days after completing his 314 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: pack slovid course, he had a running nose, sore throat, 315 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: and antigen test screaming plus for COVID nineteen. We'll eventually 316 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: figure this out, but still a puzzle. That's kind of 317 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: how I summarize the stories. That's we may not know 318 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 1: everything for you, especially with all these stupid mutations. And yeah, 319 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 1: you see there's some kind of BA four and BA 320 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: five mutation. Now that's kind of the idea of the 321 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: virus that'll keep mutating sequels to a bad movie. All 322 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 1: it wants to do is reproduce and move around. That's it. 323 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 1: I hear about it like any living organism. That's it 324 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,360 Speaker 1: that you're here to a propagate. We're all here to reproduce. 325 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 1: That's our purpose. That is our purpose, right otherwise there's 326 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: no use for you, is That's really when though? Right? Otherwise, 327 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: why would we be here? That's why you know, that's 328 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: why you feel that way so often? All right, more, 329 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 1: John and Ken cal if I do. Steve Gregory would 330 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 1: belong after three o'clock to update us in that awful 331 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: story of the seventy year old man who was set 332 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 1: on fire by a homeless woman on Metro. He has 333 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,399 Speaker 1: an update to give us, and we will talk to 334 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: him at three h five today. When the Russia Ukraine story, 335 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: the Congress has okayed forty billion dollars in new aid 336 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: to Ukraine. That's a sizeable amount. While Russia says it's 337 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: sent nine hundred Ukrainian soldiers to a prison camp, a 338 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 1: prison colony in the Russia controlled part of Ukraine Etsk. 339 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 1: That's what they said they're doing with the prisoners there. 340 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: That sounds like a good time Biden will sign. The 341 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:53,679 Speaker 1: aid package was pretty much along bipartisan lines. There were 342 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: a few dissenters who don't think it's right for us 343 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 1: to spend that much money, particularly when the country's got 344 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:04,920 Speaker 1: its own problems. But anyway, on top of that, another 345 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,439 Speaker 1: story that's popped up is the idea that Finland and 346 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,919 Speaker 1: Sweden they're going to join NATO. And we mentioned this 347 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: the other day. All thirty NATO countries have to agree. 348 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:20,159 Speaker 1: If one of them says no, they have the power 349 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 1: of veto. That sounds pretty tough. And the country that 350 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: has stood up and said no, although they think they 351 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: can work this out, is Turkey. Turkey has a particular 352 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: problem with Sweden, claiming that that country has been supporting 353 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: groups the Turkey considers to be terrorist groups. Sweden is 354 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: supporting terrorist groups, Yes, the curse I got to hear 355 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: more here. It is, according to the Turkish government, Sweden 356 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 1: is supporting something called the Syrian Kurdish People's Defense Units 357 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: or YPG. They also claim that that Sweden is actually 358 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:17,360 Speaker 1: giving them arms and money. I don't know why they 359 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: would do that. It says here that weapons Swedish weapons 360 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: are showing up in the hands of these PKK people 361 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: and apparently there have been fights between Turkey and this 362 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: group for years, resulting in the deaths of thousands of 363 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 1: people says here that they Yeah, they're an ethnic group 364 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: and they live in the mountain regions of Kurdistan. It's 365 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: called Kurdistan, but it actually stretches from Turkey to Iran, 366 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 1: Iraq and Syria. It's like it's like this ethnic enclave 367 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 1: within these other nations. Yeah, the real group is called 368 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,640 Speaker 1: the Kurdistan Workers Party or a PPK. He an armed 369 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: group in Syria. The Turkey season and extension as a PKK. 370 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: Turkey's conflict with this group is killed tens of thousands 371 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 1: of people since nineteen eighty four, and they're claiming that 372 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: Sweden supports his groups with with with arms with money. Also, 373 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: Turkey accuses Sweden in Finland of harboring the followers of 374 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: Fetla Gula. I remember that group, Fetlagulan a US based 375 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: Muslim cleric. Remember that guy. It's a guy, right who 376 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 1: the Turkish government blames for an attempted military coup in 377 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. Remember that story. We did that story six 378 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 1: years ago that there was some guy in the US 379 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 1: supposedly was calling the shots to overthrow the Turkish president 380 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: and his name is Fatula. Yeah, I remember that guy. 381 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 1: I think he's like in Pennsylvania supposedly. Yeah, yeah, now 382 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: they've been they've been fighting with the Kurds for a 383 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: long time. I remember driving down Wilshire Boulevard seven years ago, 384 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: maybe it was around that time, and there was there 385 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 1: was like a Kurdish protest going on. The Kurds were 386 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: complaining that, you know, the Turks were bullying them, and oh, yeah, 387 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: yeah they were. They they they've had kindocide, yeah, they've 388 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: genocide has been claimed over the years, and they've had 389 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: like an ongoing low level battle going on. The Kurds 390 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: are like in several countries over there, but they yeah, 391 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: it's a region and it's it's an ethnicity, but it's 392 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 1: not its own country, and it covers northern Iraq, Iran 393 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: and Syria and the mountains of of Turkey. Right, so 394 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: they they're they're there, there are significant people, but they're 395 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: they're trapped in these other countries. The NATO chief thinks though, 396 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,919 Speaker 1: they can work this out with Turkey and get their approval. 397 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 1: Today Biden met with the representatives of Finland and Sweden. 398 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: They try to push the whole idea of getting them 399 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: into NATO as soon as possible. There's millions of them 400 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: in Turkey, so they're they're sizable force. Meanwhile, I think 401 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,239 Speaker 1: this had come up before. I remember a story a 402 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: few weeks ago that a Ukrainian man was interviewed and 403 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: he said that Russian soldiers invaded his home and one 404 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 1: of them apparently stole his cell phone, and now he 405 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: can track where the Russian troops are because he basically 406 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: uses the tracking device to figure out where his phone is. 407 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: And apparently this can be a problem for the Russian military. Supposedly, 408 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: when Russian troops cross into Ukraine, they're cell phones amid 409 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 1: a roaming signal that connects to ukraine cellular network, allowing 410 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 1: the Ukrainians to triangulate where the Russians are by using 411 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: the closest three cell towers. But that's pretty dumb, isn't it. 412 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: You think that'd be somebody in charge of the Russian 413 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: army would say cell phones turn them off. Well, when 414 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 1: when when Americans go invade somewhere, we set up our 415 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: own cell tower system. He set up our own infrastructure 416 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 1: so that our communication devices only use our own towers. 417 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 1: But the Russians seem to be a bunch of goofs. 418 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: They're quite naive and ignorant. About using mobile devices. Yeah, 419 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: so they often call home, turn on their phones and 420 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 1: connect to the Ukrainian stations and it's pretty that lights 421 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,880 Speaker 1: up with anybody in Russian intelligence figure this out. Yet 422 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 1: to tell them not to do that could be an 423 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 1: oxymoron there, uh intelligence. Yeah, the Ukrainians get special information 424 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: the ID number of the device, the phone, the roaming number, 425 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: and the location of the person. So I guess that 426 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 1: all lights up on a Russian on on a Ukrainian 427 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: screen and they say that they are bomb them. That's right, 428 00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:01,239 Speaker 1: I mean, that's how they wiped out twelve generals already. 429 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 1: The Russians also stole Ukrainian iPhones, but you can track 430 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: those with defined my iPhone app. Another question raised in 431 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: the story is then why don't the Russians just destroy 432 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,919 Speaker 1: Ukraine's cellular network And the answer is they can't. They 433 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 1: need it, right, The Russians need three G and four 434 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,400 Speaker 1: G for their comms to work. They did not set 435 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 1: up an independent communications network that the Americans are Chinese 436 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: would probably do. Well. That's another mistake they made, isn't it. 437 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 1: And they don't even have a lot of encryption technology. 438 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 1: They had developed encrypted handsets, but those handsets were not 439 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: widely distributed among the Russian troops. So what I've read 440 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,120 Speaker 1: is they've just are really a blundering mess, the whole military. 441 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: And I like this quote. Another possibility as to why 442 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: their communication systems is so poor is that all the 443 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 1: money may not get there. They could allocate ten billion 444 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,919 Speaker 1: dollars and then five billion ends up in Switzerland because 445 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,880 Speaker 1: I'm corrupt, Russian bread the money to a private bank account, 446 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 1: and that's that becomes an oligarchy, that's right. And then 447 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: he's got a yacht and then he's sailing away. Uh. 448 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 1: And it says once again that the Russians really thought 449 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,360 Speaker 1: that the Ukrainians would welcome them as liberators. They really 450 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,439 Speaker 1: did believe that again. Yeah, yeah, that's that defines the 451 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: word delusion. Delusion is real. They need us, they want us, 452 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,119 Speaker 1: and that's what they were probably sold by Putin and 453 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 1: his cronies, that this is an effort to free the 454 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 1: people of Ukraine from the Nazi. Now apparently Putin believed 455 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 1: that he was going to be welcomed with cheers. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 456 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 1: The Ukrainian people who are going crazy that the Russians 457 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: came to save them, you know, from that famed nazi Zaliinsky. Yeah, 458 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 1: did you h hear about George W. Bush's boner today? Oh? My? Um? Alright? Verbal? 459 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 1: Oh okay, yeah, uh yes, I saw it yesterday. So yesterday. Yeah, 460 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: the verbal and referring to the Russian invasion of Ukraine 461 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 1: he referred to as the Russian invasion of a rock, 462 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,479 Speaker 1: which is funny because that's what he did. We invaded 463 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: a rock and he caught himself and he said, sorry, 464 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm seventy five. That's my old guy. At 465 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: least at least he's got self awareness on that. Yeah, 466 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 1: not like Biden. Biden just keeps going teleprompter or end 467 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,439 Speaker 1: of message. All right, we're coming on shot again, camp I, 468 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: Debora Mark, Now you burked up there? Uh the twenty 469 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 1: four our campaign newsroom. This is the time of year 470 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 1: you start getting the junk mail. I got the Cops 471 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: voter Guide here today in my mailbox. I don't know 472 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: who they what do they use? More cops? Makes you 473 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:52,959 Speaker 1: think a nonpartisan public advocacy organization? Who knows what that is. 474 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: It's like a little flyer that came in the mail 475 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,919 Speaker 1: telling me who to vote for a state office? Well, 476 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: is it a real is really connected to police or 477 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 1: are they just that acronym to mislead you. I don't know. 478 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: I'd have to do some digging. Yeah, I don't. I 479 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,919 Speaker 1: don't trust those things. I throw those out. Yeah, of 480 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: course I don't even look at the mail so yeah, oh, 481 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: he's not an official political party organization. Yeah, but there's 482 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,199 Speaker 1: a lot of misdirect imply endorsement of others appearing in 483 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 1: the mailer. Nor does it. It's like a big disclaimer here, 484 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: because apparently there's there's a new trend, not a new trend, 485 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: but it's it's it's more prevalent this year where in 486 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: television commercials, Democratic candidates, for example, are running ads pushing 487 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 1: Republican candidates that they think will be easier to beat right, 488 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 1: and that is more widespread than it usually is. And 489 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: I think I remember a mailer story. I don't know 490 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: anything about cops, but where they put out mailers to 491 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 1: make it look like they're a tough on crime organization. 492 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: For example. I'm making this up, but in reality, all 493 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: their recommendations are for gascon types. But the title of 494 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: the group or the acronym of the group will lead 495 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: you believe it's like, oh, this must be you know, 496 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 1: the police on you, and if you're not paying attention, 497 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: you're voting for all kinds of defund the police monsters. 498 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: Would you really take something that's in your mailbox and 499 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: just you know, oh yeah, this is how i'll vote. 500 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: Thank you for giving me a voter guide. Look what 501 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: people have voted for. It's it's not that bright out there. 502 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: Uh no, it's grim. Although I was, we wouldn't have 503 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 1: all the nonsense we have. Uh yeah, it doesn't say much. 504 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: The Cops Voter Guide is a nonpartisan public advocacy organization 505 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: that's pretty generic exactly. See every election cycle for more 506 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: than twenty years, millions of voters have received our voter guides. 507 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: Well that's easy to Well that's really bad. You can't 508 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 1: get more blamed and generic, which makes me suspicious. Yeah, 509 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,479 Speaker 1: we are committed to recommending candidates and measures it support 510 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: common sense, community based public safety policies. It's not that 511 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: I would oppose this, but it's just very weird. It's 512 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: like what we do. I'm just trying to see if 513 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: there's anything else you're looking up online? Guy, Yeah, and 514 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: I went to their website. Yeah, it's Cops Voter Guide 515 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 1: dot com. I just kind of curious. What Yeah, but 516 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: it doesn't expect it's just yeah, all right, I'm really suspicious. 517 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: Now I'm looking at this. I'm looking at the about 518 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: us page, and it's what you said, we're committed to recommending. Yeah, right, 519 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: so what you can't even find the name of anybody 520 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: or there is like no, so well, okay, so what's 521 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: the uh? And they have had a little police badge 522 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: is part of their logo. But they're not like a 523 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: real police organization. No, no, they're not. So what are they? 524 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: I don't know? Oh? Here, here, here's a news story. Uh, 525 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: Sheriff's Employees Association warns a false cop voters guide. Ah. 526 00:30:56,280 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: This is from October twenty twenty. California voters recently received 527 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 1: a fraudulent political slate claiming to represent law enforcement to 528 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: try to cause pro police voters to cast ballots contrary 529 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 1: to the true stance of public safety professionals. I see 530 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: it is a scam, yea, and they got they got 531 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 1: the president of the Sheriff's Employees Benefit Association here, Grant Wards, saying, 532 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: to see someone prett endorsements that are completely contradictory or 533 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 1: what the profession believes is a slap in the face. 534 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: This erroneous information has been sent to millions of voters 535 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: and gives law enforcement a very bad name. Oh, here's 536 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: a disclaimer. This organization does not represent any public safety personnel. Right, No, 537 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: it's yet by calling yourself cops, Well, they could just 538 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: say we're pro law enforcement. We're just not necessarily in 539 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 1: law enforcement. Right, I guess that behind it's totally a fake. 540 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: It's got a picture of two smiling police officers on 541 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: the web page. I can't see what department. Well, it 542 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: has this appeal box and Sacramento it's all I've been 543 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:05,960 Speaker 1: able to find on the lamp. Well. Yeah, if you 544 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: go on the website and there's there's no there's no 545 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 1: names and it's bl box and yeah, usually when you 546 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: hit about you can find the people behind it that 547 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: the names of officers and oh yeah, because you other 548 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: personnel who are raising the money for this. There is 549 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 1: money because these organizations, these mailers aren't free, right they 550 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: want they want to be. It could be funded by 551 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: some you know, wacky tech billionaire who wants to cause mayhem. Uh, 552 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: it says, oh you think so. It says. These endorsements 553 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: are sold to the highest bidder, and this slate has 554 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 1: become a home for anti law enforcement interests to dope 555 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 1: well intentioned voters. This is, again, according to Butt sinkling out, 556 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 1: this one is it? Oh yeah, they're talking about this one. 557 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: They are talking about cops orders, they're talking yeah yeah, 558 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 1: Oh okay, So that's it's the Sheriff's Employees Benefit Association. 559 00:32:56,680 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: They spoke out on this two years ago, representing thirty 560 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: eight hundred members from the Sheriff's Department in San Bernardino County. 561 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 1: They've got another suspicious link that California Solutions Californians for 562 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: Solutions to Homelessness and Mental Health Support. I just looked 563 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: at that website. It's on the mailer and I I 564 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: don't know. They claim there's going to be a ballot 565 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: measure that guarantees millions of dollars to fight homelessness. Oh great, 566 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 1: no money for the homeless, no more, no more money. 567 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 1: I'm voting no on. Oh well, here's the supporters, and 568 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: one of them is Libby chaff Well, here you go. 569 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: Now I don't like it already.

All right, 578 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: when we come back, a metro rail passenger was set 579 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 1: on fire.
