1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:02,920
Speaker 1: If I am six forty, you're listening to the John

Speaker 1: Then after four o'clock you could hear us endlessly on

5
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:17,119
Speaker 1: the iHeart app. What the uh it's called doing an

6
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 1: endless show John and Ken on demand? That's the podcast.

7
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 1: And there was a story today that some people are

8
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 1: listening to podcasts twenty four to seven. You're going to

9
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: get to that story, that's right.

10
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 2: And I thought this is my follow up to yesterday's

11
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 2: story on loneliness, Yes, about how people at grocery stores

12
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 2: want to go to the checkout cast here to talk

13
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 2: to them, right, this is kind of the same thing

14
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:38,200
Speaker 2: more loneliness.

15
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, look we're here for the lonely and if

16
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,480
Speaker 1: you need two voices in your head all day and night,

17
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: we're the guys for you, Okay. And it answered the

18
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:47,919
Speaker 1: question I have.

19
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,639
Speaker 2: I see people walking around always with like the AirPods

20
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:51,880
Speaker 2: in their ears like all the time.

21
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 1: Yes, I guess that's probably what they're doing. It can't

22
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 1: be without a voice in their head, right, so it'll

23
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: be a vagrant think of can you think of two

24
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: better voices than our voice is in your head.

25
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 2: It's a good selling job story. Yeah, I got an

26
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: exciting news. Pet coo Southern California pet coat stores are

27
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 2: now open as cooling centers for pets.

28
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 1: So if you want to drop them off.

29
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 2: To get cool, no, it is true. So they'll take

30
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 2: on your all pets of all breeds, shapes and sizes,

31
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 2: have access to clean water, and they'll be able to

32
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 2: sit in cool in case you don't have air conditioning

33
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 2: at all.

34
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: Their owners can't stay there though, just the pets. Well,

35
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: then they have to babysit the pets because who would

36
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: bring your pet to a pet Co cooling center and

37
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 1: be vagrants? Right, So they better watch what walks in

38
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: there because I go to Petco all the time. I

39
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,559
Speaker 1: don't want want to run into mister vagrants. Mister.

40
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 2: Just over a week later, well, the world is looking

41
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 2: at a more normal again. The hurricane is not coming

42
00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 2: to southern California. It is bearing down on full We're

43
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 2: going to get a report now from Jim Ryan, ABC

44
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 2: News for KFI who's posted in Tampa.

45
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 1: This is expected to hit the Gulf coast there. Let's

46
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 1: find out the latest. Okay, is it the end of

47
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: the world. Jim, Uh, yes, yes, it is okay, thanks Jim.

48
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: The other one fled, but.

49
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 3: They have fled, Yeah, they fled. They headed for higher ground,

50
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 3: literally higher ground. Yeah, well, or clear across the state

51
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 3: to the east. They went over to Orland or somewhere else,

52
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 3: maybe up toward Georgia. But of course the storm is

53
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 3: going to follow them up to Georgia and then into

54
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 3: the Carolinas later in the week. But for right now,

55
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 3: it is a category two hurricane. It just reached that

56
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,959
Speaker 3: at the last updates when the National Weather Service gave

57
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 3: its update. Though the winds now sustained at one hundred

58
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 3: miles per hour. The storm is still coursing toward the

59
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 3: north through the historically warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico,

60
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 3: and that's giving it a lot of energy. And so

61
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 3: by the time it makes landfall, probably tomorrow morning sometime,

62
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 3: it's going to pack a powerful punch. Could be up

63
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 3: to hurricane three category three status.

64
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: And what was it? Okay, what's what cities are going

65
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: to get at the worst? Like, where is it headed,

66
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: where is it most likely to dump the most rain?

67
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: And one hundred mile plus.

68
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 3: Wins Well, thank god, it probably won't hit a big

69
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 3: major city. It's going to be up to the north

70
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 3: of Tampa, but between Tampa and Talla Hasse and what

71
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 3: they call the Big Bend area, right where the peninsula

72
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 3: meets the Florida Panhandle, right there in the crotch. It's

73
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 3: going to be a big kick in the crotch.

74
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: I don't think they call it the Crotch Florida cross.

75
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: But there's a lot of nature preserved there.

76
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 3: Well, you're right, you're right, they're the Big Bend, seagrass is,

77
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 3: aquatic preservers there.

78
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 4: You're right.

79
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 3: There's a lot of of you know, valuable real estate

80
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 3: there historically and naturally valuable. But it's not people. Fortunately,

81
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 3: there are some small communities there. They're all being evacuated.

82
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 4: Now.

83
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 3: These evacuations areory in places like Tampa right along the shoreline,

84
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 3: but up there in the area where it's expected, where

85
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 3: the modeling is showing that it's going to make landfall,

86
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 3: there aren't any real coastal communities. They're not within you know,

87
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 3: spitting distance of the shoreline. They're five or ten miles inland,

88
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 3: which should protect them from the worst of the storms.

89
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 1: Because the government has like cordoned off huge areas in

90
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: that part of Florida as a nature preserve, so there's

91
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: nobody living there where the center of the hurricane is

92
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 1: supposed to hit.

93
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 2: So I think my question was didn't they get hit

94
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,359
Speaker 2: with a hurricane on that part of the state a

95
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 2: couple of years ago that caused big storm problems?

96
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 3: Storms well, Hurricane Ian a year that's the one right

97
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 3: struck down around well south of Cape Coral and Fort Myers.

98
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 3: It was the third costliest storm in Florida history billions,

99
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 3: something like one hundred billion dollars damage, one hundred and

100
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 3: sixty one people died. And so this storm comes along

101
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 3: less than a year later, and folks in Tampa sit

102
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 3: up and say, you know what, remember what happened about

103
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,919
Speaker 3: a year ago. Perhaps we should pack our bags and

104
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 3: go away. And that's what they've done.

105
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what you're saying. People are actually leaving. Sure,

106
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,599
Speaker 1: well it's in Fort Myers because we drove through that

107
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 1: a few months ago, because my wife spent a lot

108
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 1: of time growing up in Sarasota and Fort Myers. The

109
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 1: beach area was completely obliterated. Because they went to bed

110
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: and they were told that the hurricane was going to

111
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: travel well north and overnight it took a right turn

112
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: that nobody expected, and so they were waking up to

113
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 1: a complete devastation, just blew almost every building on the

114
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 1: on the Barrier islands off their moorings.

115
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 3: Well, certainly that's why, and these storms there. The science

116
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 3: has gotten very good over the years, but still it's

117
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,719
Speaker 3: not perfect. And it could take a right turn. It

118
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 3: could smash right into Temple where I'm sitting right now,

119
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 3: or it could turn a little to the left and

120
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 3: go up into Tallahassee. But for now, the modeling shows

121
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 3: that in thirteen hours from right now, it should be

122
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 3: hitting right around that big band area.

123
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 1: And you're staying right there.

124
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 2: Hum, yes, you're gonna you're gonna stay through the Storm's

125
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 2: gonna stay outside.

126
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 3: I'm not in television. It's not as draumatic. If you're

127
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 3: in radio and your stand outside, get around.

128
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: Do the do the radio guys make fun of the

129
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: TV guys for all that theater that'll go off, Yeah,

130
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,600
Speaker 1: where they're where they're grabbing the.

131
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,799
Speaker 3: Make fun of us before our tiny paychecks.

132
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 2: What well, but we could hear the wind if you

133
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 2: stood out there, we'd hear the wind on the radio right.

134
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 3: And see what we can hear right now.

135
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: It's better over the window. Oh I do hear it?

136
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 4: Yeah? Do you hear a little bit? Yeah?

137
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: Oh definitely, yeah, yeah.

138
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 3: I mean these are just the way outer bands. There's

139
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 3: nothing to write home about.

140
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: Your hotel room window.

141
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 2: And is there another storm out in the Atlantic that's

142
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 2: sort of making its way?

143
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,799
Speaker 3: Franklin. Frank Franklin is the next one, and that's uh,

144
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 3: it's not expected to affect the United States at all,

145
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 3: but it is a monster too. If you get a chance,

146
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 3: check out some of the video captured by the International

147
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 3: Space Station today. It flew over or passed over these

148
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 3: two big hurricanes out there. Beautiful beautiful images of these

149
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 3: gigantic storms with clearly defined eyes. I mean, they're beautiful

150
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 3: to look at, but terrifying to live through.

151
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: Now.

152
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 2: People in Florida though kind of jaded about this in

153
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 2: some ways. Aren't they get so many hurricanes?

154
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 3: Well, they do, but it's been you know, this part

155
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 3: of Florida, the West Coast, really hasn't seen that many lately.

156
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 3: Now that one last year I think put a scare

157
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 3: in everyone, the one down there by Fort Myers, so

158
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 3: and that's a good thing because people won't be complacent perhaps.

159
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 1: Think I read that this specific area that the hurricane

160
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 1: is aimed at hasn't seen one of these in one

161
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy two years.

162
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, And so considering that we had one just

163
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 3: eleven months ago and this one comes in now, and

164
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 3: I think people and in fact, if you looked at

165
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 3: Interstate four this morning, had it east over toward Orlando,

166
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 3: it was a jam pack with people leaving Tampa getting

167
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 3: out of here. And were it not for Hurricane Ian

168
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 3: last year, people might have gotten complacent and said, you know,

169
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 3: it's been a long time we went at anything. Let's

170
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:10,239
Speaker 3: there's no reason to leave.

171
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 2: All right, Jim, we'll probably check in with you tomorrow.

172
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 2: See how he did stay inside your car there?

173
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 3: Okay, see you guys.

174
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 2: All right, But it's Jim Ryan, ABC News for KFI

175
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 2: who's in Tampa, Florida. And we heard the rain. I

176
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 2: could hear that quite clearly. Is the open the window there?

177
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 2: As the outer bands of this hurricane are starting to

178
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 2: hit the Gulf coast of Florida, and they were expecting

179
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 2: some storm.

180
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,079
Speaker 1: Surge when we come back.

181
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 2: And it's interesting when you look at this story because

182
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 2: the El Segundo Times has a link from six months ago,

183
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 2: LA promised to stop wasting so much storm water. Progress

184
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 2: has been painfully slow. So that was six months ago

185
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 2: when we had a pretty rainy winter. Well what happened

186
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 2: a week ago? So yesterday we had this hurricane Hillary

187
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,359
Speaker 2: come through. Can you guess if we were able to

188
00:08:58,400 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 2: capture a much of the storm.

189
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 1: But we have a guess what did they do in

190
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 1: the last six months.

191
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,679
Speaker 2: This is why we're in this endless idiot loop. And

192
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 2: we'll talk about it when we come back. Johnny KENKFI

201
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: Well, you've heard this before.

202
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 2: Whenever we have a heavy rain, we don't capture much

203
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 2: of it. And of course last winter was pretty rainy

204
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 2: into early this year, we didn't capture much. And the

205
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 2: story from last week's big storm, Hillary that hit is

206
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 2: pretty much the same deal. This time we get something

207
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 2: of an explanation for it from the El Segundo time.

208
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 2: It's because we don't have enough infrastructure to capture all

209
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 2: the storm water, so the infrastructure gets overwhelmed and the

210
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 2: rest just runs off to the ocean.

211
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: They've had decades to build the infrastructure. I really resent

212
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 1: being lectured by these ninnies whenever there's one of their

213
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: fake drafts or whether they want to squawk about their

214
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: climate change nonsense. And they're already squealing about how we're

215
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: wasting water. And the more time goes on and we

216
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 1: find out what the truth is that eighty percent of

217
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,959
Speaker 1: the water is used by agriculture, that people use maybe

218
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,319
Speaker 1: six percent of the water supply. It's true, go look

219
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: at it. People use six percent of the water supply.

220
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: And we find out that most of the rain from

221
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 1: last year, which was which was one of the heavier

222
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 1: rainfalls we've had. I think it probably was, you know,

223
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 1: the third or fourth heaviest winter in the last thirty

224
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 1: forty years, something like that, most of it went out

225
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: to sea. All of Hurricane Hillary went out to sea.

226
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 1: And I'm about to smack these people in the face,

227
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: it's like, would you shut up with your drafts and

228
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 1: water shortages and we have to do conservation and I

229
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 1: can't water my lawn on a Monday, and I can't

230
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: wash my car on a Saturday. It's like, shut up

231
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 1: because your job with our tax money is to build

232
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 1: the damn infrastructure. And you know what they do.

233
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,599
Speaker 2: They have these water bonds. They always get past. I

234
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 2: think there's a county one, there's a state one. What

235
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 2: are you doing with that if you're only building? It

236
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 2: says here that they were able to capture ten thousand

237
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 2: acre feet of water from Hillary's rainfall.

238
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 1: This is La.

239
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 2: That's three point two billion gallons. That's forty thousand households

240
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,679
Speaker 2: for a year. How many households you think there are

241
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 2: in the city of Los Angeles, possibly a million or

242
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 2: something like that. So it's only seven percent of the

243
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 2: water the city's captured since October.

244
00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: And it's a tiny fraction of what fell from the sky, right,

245
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 1: And so they're they're they're they're getting just basic, proportionately,

246
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 1: just a few drops from these storms. It's all going

247
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,080
Speaker 1: out into the ocean. And it would matter except we

248
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 1: gave them billions of dollars. But all these water agencies

249
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 1: are completely corrupt and lazy, and they're run by stupid people.

250
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: How could you get billions of dollars and not have

251
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: all this built decades ago?

252
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 2: Says your county operating spreading grounds captured approximately eighty six

253
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 2: hundred acre feet of storm water during Hillary storms. That's

254
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 2: two point eight billion gallons. But that's only two percent

255
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 2: of the county. Two percent of the county stormwater has

256
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 2: been captured since October, so that's all ninety eight percent

257
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 2: is getting through.

258
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 1: So ninety eight percent is flushed out into the ocean.

259
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: We captured two percent, right, and I really did a

260
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 1: little better.

261
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 2: They captured about seven percent and the ninety three percent

262
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 2: made it through. And the propaganda guys at the Elsagunda

263
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 2: Times you're a few years ago, wrote a glowing story

264
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 2: on storm water infrastructure major investment. Well, I guess they

265
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 2: spent the money by now or are they sitting on it?

266
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 2: Did they invest it in the stock market?

267
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 1: But they do? Did they buy Epstein's Island? I mean,

268
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: what did they do with all the money? Because they're

269
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: letting ninety eight percent of the rain water go out

270
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 1: to the sea, and honestly, they should shut up for

271
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 1: the rest of our lives. Oh yeah.

272
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 2: It was called the Safe Clean Water Program, passed by

273
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 2: La County voters in twenty eighteen. Is measured w three

274
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 2: hundred million dollars annually for projects to capture and clean

275
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 2: storm water. All right, so that this story they did

276
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 2: in February said though progress has been slow.

277
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 1: So that's five years, that's a billion and a half dollars,

278
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: and they're only collecting two percent of the water that

279
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 1: falls from the sky. They're they're thieves. All these guys

280
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 1: are criminals. They're just stealing money, and they're giving themselves

281
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: huge salaries. That's the truth of it. How could you

282
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: in five years with a billion a half dollars and

283
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: you're still only a two percent of the water captured,

284
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 1: and then you're giving us lectures.

285
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 2: The only good side to all this when it rains,

286
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 2: at least the groundwater gets replenished, that doesn't run off,

287
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 2: it runs into the grounds absorbed by the soil. Because

288
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 2: that was a big problem throughout the state during the

289
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 2: low rain years they were running out of groundwater was

290
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 2: getting pumped out. Remember the farmlands up in central and

291
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 2: northern California, they were collapsing because they were pumping so

292
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 2: much groundwater.

293
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 1: Sinking probably causes earthquakes. All right, we got more coming up.

297
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:47,239
Speaker 2: Well, last Saturday was supposed to be in San Francisco,

298
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 2: the Downtown Doom Loop Walking Tour. We did this story

299
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 2: a couple weeks ago when I first got advertised, and

300
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 2: some people were suspicious that it was fake, that nobody

301
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 2: would really organiz eyes a tour to point out the

302
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 2: open air drug use, the closed stores, the dirty streets.

303
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 2: They thought it was a hoax story. Well, the Downtown

304
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 2: Doom Loop Walking Tour did not take place, but it

305
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 2: was not a hoax.

306
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: It was a San.

307
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 2: Francisco commissioner who put together the planned tour. His name

308
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 2: is Alex Luglum. He's on what a name, the Commission

309
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 2: on Community Investment in Infrastructure. He's resigned. The tour didn't

310
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 2: take place, and he resigned from the position. I guess

311
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 2: because of all the blowback that how dare you do

312
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 2: something so negative in our beautiful city.

313
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: Instead, they did the Tenderloin Walking toward a more positive

314
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 1: look that had about eighty people show up. Uh kid,

315
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: he Isn't this fascinating about human nature? We were talking

316
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: about this the other day. If you tell the truth,

317
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 1: you're you're chased out of town, you're boot off the stage.

318
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: If you tell the truth, if you if you sell

319
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 1: a fantasy, it's like, oh, this is wonderful. If you lie,

320
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: they applaud. If you tell the truth, they get angry.

321
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: I'm reminded of Buffalo. Now why would I say that,

322
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: because you know, I went to school there.

323
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 4: Yeah.

324
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 1: Flash.

325
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 2: I used to run into residents who lived there and

326
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 2: I thought, Eh, when I'm done, I'm not going to

327
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 2: live here. But they got very defensive. People who were

328
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 2: born and raised and still lived there circle the wagons

329
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 2: and act like, why would you say that it's a

330
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 2: beautiful small city. But you look at the population figures,

331
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 2: and for the most part people live.

332
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: Whipple left people always most of the most people right

333
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: always carry on is if their hometown is the greatest

334
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 1: thing in the world, if they stayed there, right, if

335
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 1: they stayed there.

336
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, people who leave don't always say that because because

337
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 2: they don't want to be seen as a loser.

338
00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 1: If they if they're right. That's what it is. Right.

339
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: It's a self defense mechanism in order to justify the

340
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,679
Speaker 1: decisions they've made in life or the way the outcome

341
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 1: of their life has meant. I met some of those

342
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: Buffalo people because we worked with them in upstate New York.

343
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 1: Right people, and you're right there there, we'll get defenses.

344
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,360
Speaker 1: Oh yes, they were belligerent. Interview made a Buffalo joke.

345
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 1: It's like, sit down, I buy a Buffalo. The scats

346
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:22,640
Speaker 1: don't lie.

347
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 2: People left Buffalo, they left Detroit, They're leaving San Francisco.

348
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 2: All of your happy talk can't deny the reality. The

349
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 2: stores are closing, people are leaving, and there's a reason

350
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:32,880
Speaker 2: for that.

351
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,640
Speaker 1: It's a mess right now. Urban decay.

352
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 2: This guy said, I regret that my attempt to bring

353
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,920
Speaker 2: attention to the deplorable street conditions and rampant criminality in

354
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 2: my neighborhood has been misconstrued as a mockery of suffering individuals.

355
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 2: Satire is a poor way to address the grave issues

356
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 2: we face as a city.

357
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 1: He wrote a letter to you know that was kind

358
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 1: of a backhanded way to like stand his ground there,

359
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,919
Speaker 1: it was, but you know what he should be blatant,

360
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: they're open about it. He should say, look, this is

361
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: a hell hole. Okay, there's literally thousands of drug addicts

362
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: dying in the street. So stop stop living in your

363
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,679
Speaker 1: fantasy world expecting all of us to sugarcoat and go

364
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 1: along with your non saints. You're all lying, That's what

365
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:17,640
Speaker 1: he should do. Everyone's so afraid of the truth. Fascinating

366
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: how the human mind works.

367
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 2: He originally when they advertise this tour, I like the

368
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,119
Speaker 2: sentence you can come see the outposts of the nonprofit

369
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 2: industrial complex and the deserted department stores. And that's what

370
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,400
Speaker 2: we call it too, the homeless industrial complex. He calls

371
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 2: it the nonprofit industrial complex. These are just these organizations

372
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 2: that feed off all the public dollars to quote solve

373
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 2: the problems that they don't solve.

374
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 1: It is a racket put out happy.

375
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 2: Press releases, like we talked about an hour ago that

376
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 2: the county did on all those homeless RVs out there

377
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 2: in East Gardina.

378
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: Same thing.

379
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 2: They just put out happy press releases, but the problems persist.

380
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 1: The homeless executives are evil, They're absolute evil. They are

381
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: shucking drive the tax payer and all the people who

382
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 1: donate money to these causes, and they try to shield

383
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 1: themselves with this holier than now halo that look at

384
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 1: the beautiful things we're doing for the downtrodden. They're probably

385
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 1: as cynical and negative as we all are, but they're

386
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,120
Speaker 1: making so much money. They try to shame you into

387
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,240
Speaker 1: not criticizing them. They try to shame this guy for

388
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: telling the truth. And you know, that's where the big

389
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 1: war is in this country. It's between people who see

390
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,879
Speaker 1: the truth and people who have a financial interest in

391
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:36,199
Speaker 1: pretending this truth doesn't exist. And their weapon is to

392
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,120
Speaker 1: try to use shame. And you should never back off

393
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:43,400
Speaker 1: to these people because if you actually stand in there,

394
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 1: you're gonna win because you're right, Like, the Tenderline District

395
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 1: is a disgusting hellhole and it doesn't matter how many

396
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,199
Speaker 1: people criticize this Alex Ludlam, they're still wrong and that

397
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 1: place is still gross.

398
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:59,120
Speaker 2: And he says it comes down to one problem, unchecked

399
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 2: drug dealing. Yeah, that's the root of all our current problems.

400
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 2: And everything will suffer, especially downtown, until the markets are correct.

401
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 1: Because they decriminalized drug use, public drug use, they stopped

402
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: arresting people, they stopped forcing people into treatment.

403
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 2: And they do harm reduction, which is to give people needles,

404
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 2: s narcan, which is.

405
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: To give them drugs, and to help facilitate the drugs.

406
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: So they've done the opposite of what would work, and

407
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:31,400
Speaker 1: so they have this is the proper outcome. I mean,

408
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 1: if I had never heard of this, you told me, Okay,

409
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: we're no longer going to arrest for drug possession. We're

410
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 1: not gonna put them in jail, we're not going to

411
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 1: force them into treatment, and we're gonna give them all

412
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,199
Speaker 1: the tools they need to continue to inject themselves with

413
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 1: dangerous poisons. I would say, hmm, okay, you know what's

414
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 1: gonna happen. You're gonna end up with thousands of people

415
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: stumbling like zombies in the street, and eventually they're all

416
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 1: gonna die. That would have been my sight unseen right,

417
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,479
Speaker 1: And of course said that before. Maybe that is the solution,

418
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 1: just to let them all die. These politicians are doing well,

419
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 1: do you think That's what I'm saying? They don't care

420
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 1: when they do their public service. U scare mongering about hey,

421
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: you know it's really hot today, go to a cooling center,

422
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 1: or hey it's so we got a hurricane coming, better

423
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 1: go to drag They don't really care though.

424
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 2: This is a shane the crowd that wants to control

425
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 2: your life, what car you drive, whether or not you

426
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 2: live in an urban setting, because it's about But instead,

427
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 2: when it comes to all the drug people lying on

428
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 2: the sidewalk, they don't care. They don't try to control their.

429
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 1: Lives, just let it be. No, they want to control

430
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: their lives of people who've succeeded in capitalism. That's who

431
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 1: they want to punish. The failures, the people who fail

432
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 1: at competing. They want to turn into these noble uh

433
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,360
Speaker 1: you know, noble creatures, noble success stories.

434
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 2: Oh, the reasons to overturn the system.

435
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: Right right exactly, use them as fodder for their arguments,

436
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,639
Speaker 1: like lookily, these people dying in the streets obviously a

437
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 1: failure of capitalism. And then the people succeed in a

438
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 1: capitalist society, it's like, well, you have to be punished,

439
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 1: we have to take away your money. We're going to

440
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 1: control where you drive and how and what time you drive,

441
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,439
Speaker 1: and we're gonna get you know that. That's what's at

442
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,920
Speaker 1: the base of this ideology, the base of this belief system.

443
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 2: All right, when we come back yesterday, we brought you

459
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,360
Speaker 2: The Washington Post has been doing series just I think

460
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 2: like the l Segundo Times has been doing an Americans

461
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 2: suffering from loneliness. I have a series that examines how

462
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 2: technology can bring us together but also tear us apart.

463
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 2: And this story, the one they posted this week, is

464
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 2: about people who listen to podcasts twenty four to seven

465
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:23,879
Speaker 2: non stop around the clock. Some even when they doze off,

466
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 2: it's still in their ears.

467
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 1: I think that's great. I you do yes, In fact,

468
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: I have a suggestion. If there's one podcast to listen

469
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 1: twenty four to seven, what would that be?

470
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 4: Can I guess?

471
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 1: Go ahead? The Johnny Ken on demand podcast that is correct? Sir,

472
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 1: You'll never be alone. There's four of us. There's four

473
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 1: voices in your head. Did the podcast come with her

474
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,159
Speaker 1: her news and stuff too? Oh no they don't, but

475
00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 1: they come with her vegan lectures, those make the cut.

476
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 2: And those moistline people taking shots at her right exactly

477
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 2: so you can hear.

478
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:10,720

Speaker 2: her air pods and starts listening to podcasts, shows about wellness,

482
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,760

Speaker 1: Yeah, when was the last time you talked with another

502
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,639
Speaker 1: guy about wellness? Ken walks. He likes to walk, He

503
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,879
Speaker 1: cares about what he eats. He doesn't need a hammerer

504
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,439
Speaker 1: every single day. Not that we exercise wellness. It's a

505
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,439
Speaker 1: heart of it. It's a whole podcast. They gone for

506
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 1: an hour? Yeah, John, it's right though, Debra, how many

507
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:31,120
Speaker 1: of these shows could you do?

508
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 4: I don't know if I don't really listen to podcasts,

509
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 4: but maybe I should.

510
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 1: What do they do? Like when they get to episode two.

511
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 2: After they've gone through the stereotypes about being well?

512
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 1: Right, what are you gonna say do an episode two? Like?

513
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 1: I can understand if you did a podcast on illnesses right,

514
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 1: because you know, illnesses are fascinating. A thousand things can

515
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 1: go on with your body and it's gonna be all

516
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 1: disgusting and gross and tragic. I mean, that could go

517
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,479
Speaker 1: on all day about recovering from the illness. All right, recover,

518
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 1: but wellness is about making sure you're always well.

519
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 2: Now be back back to people who listen to podcasts

520
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 2: twenty four to seven.

521
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: It's call part of a loneliness crisis.

522
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 2: It takes the place of casual chatter with friends, or

523
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:19,399
Speaker 2: it mimics the feeling. Telvin said, I just like listening

524
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 2: to hearing human's talk. It reminds me we're all connected.

525
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:28,639
Speaker 1: Okay, I listened to a lot of podcasts, but I

526
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,400
Speaker 1: don't listen to podcasts to feel connected to someone else.

527
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 4: I'm trying to get some information.

528
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 1: We're all connected, including your own podcast. I guess, well, yeah, well.

529
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 4: I'm giving information to my listeners.

530
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: You should. You should get into wellness. I think you

531
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 1: should shift away from this sports system and get it.

532
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 1: That's that's all the rage. Oh and then I like

533
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:54,880
Speaker 1: this one. A woman named Praise Tolbert Praise, these names

534
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,679
Speaker 1: aren't real. Full time mom in Florida. She uses podcast

535
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 1: to combat in truth of thoughts, a difficult symptom of

536
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 1: her bipolar disorder. Oh so the other voices in your

537
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: head replace these thoughts? Yes, and I think she the

538
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,439
Speaker 1: one with the kid, and the kid wants to know

539
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 1: why she's always got the oh yeah, yeah. She has

540
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,680
Speaker 1: a three year old, and there's a three year old.

541
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 1: Three year old wants to know why she always is

542
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 1: listening to a podcast, and she can't explain to him

543
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 1: that mommy has all these voices talking to her in

544
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 1: her head, and the podcast voices chase the other voices away, but.

545
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,680
Speaker 2: You're still sticking with your You recommend this for people,

546
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 2: just as long as it's Johnny Ken.

547
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: I recommend our show. Yes, if people are going to

548
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 1: do this, I can't control what goes on out there.

549
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 1: I'm just saying we have the perfect show to listen

550
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 1: to twenty four to seven, because I think there's thousands

551
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: of our shows on the iHeartRadio app.

552
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 2: So over the weekend, I clicked the story clickbait. It's

553
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 2: the opposite of this one. It's called silent walking, the

554
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 2: idea that you walk and you have nothing playing in

555
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 2: your head. Yes I'm talking on the phone. You're not

556
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 2: looking at your phone listening to a podcast. Now, listen

557
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 2: to music. You're just walking with your own thoughts. A

558
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 2: chance for you to just kind of collect.

559
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 1: Yourself that's the opposite. That's what I like doing. I

560
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 1: like being alone. I'm gonna walk. I don't need I'll walk.

561
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 1: I'll walk. This is like the Macy story Way diact.

565
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: my head. But all right, well, don't forget that.
