1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey, good afternoon, Welcome. What we'll talk about gas 2 00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:06,960 Speaker 1: prices and Biden. The White House put out a statement today. 3 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:11,959 Speaker 1: He's demanding the gas stations lower prices immediately. He's demanding 4 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: the crude price of oil has been dropping. He doesn't 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 1: think it's happening as much for people at the pump 6 00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: here in California. Holy mackerel, what are you here this morning? 7 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,640 Speaker 1: Thirteen cents a gallon jump this morning? Yeah, overnight. Yeah, 8 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:25,439 Speaker 1: there's a lot of stations on the West side that 9 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 1: are well over six bucks. Six bucks. It looks like 10 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: it's back to the way it was at the beginning. Expert, Well, 11 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 1: somebody from the oil and gas price analyst side coming 12 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 1: on in about an hour. We've got a there's a 13 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 1: special documentary coming on tonight on Fox eleven at seven o'clock. 14 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 1: It's called Hell No Water, Hell Slash Slash No Water. 15 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: The hell part is about the drought that has exacerbated 16 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 1: the fires in the state, and the second part is 17 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: about the drought that's exacerbated the water shortage in California. 18 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: And we're gonna talk with Gina Silva from Fox eleven 19 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 1: next segment. Now, don't nobody told me I had three 20 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 1: o'clock written on my sheet. Here what happened? Just happen. Okay, 21 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: next segment for Gina Silver. Oh yeah, we we thought 22 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 1: there was gonna be a news conference. I forgot that 23 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: Ray moved her. We can play the preview clip. Okay, 24 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna shows. These are long days and nights on 25 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 1: the fire line, breathing smoke. They're burning hotter, they're burning faster, 26 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: They're burning one hundred thousand more acres. This is something 27 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: that could have been preventable. For talking about how fundamental 28 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: water is to our way of life, you can't overstate it. 29 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: My home is the only home that survived. There were 30 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,279 Speaker 1: so many planes, the smoke, the wind, the drive rush 31 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: hit your location on southern California. We've seen it many 32 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: times before. We're still fortunately compared to other people that 33 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: have lost loved ones. I mean, we all came out unhurt. 34 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: It's the most precious resource that we have and the 35 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: one that we should be paying the most attention to 36 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: because there is real risk. It's kind of shilly to 37 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: complain about a water crisis when you have the Pacific 38 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: Ocean sitting outside. There's no new one. The water we've 39 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: had is the same water we've always had for millions 40 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: of years. We just recycled that same water over a 41 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: dead If we have another successive year of drought, it's 42 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: going to get pretty extremes. We cannot continue to bury 43 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: our heads in the sands. This is not a fire drill. 44 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: We're here at the end of the line. I can 45 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 1: hear the flames here. You were right in the middle, 46 00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: right the Pacific Ocean thing. Well, I'm right, aren't I? Yeah, 47 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 1: you should have been sitting on the beach when you 48 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: did that and just pointed. What did they have? Funny, Well, 49 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: they actually cut in some video of the Pacific Ocean 50 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: as we did. I did. I watched the preview clip, yes, right, 51 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,239 Speaker 1: and it was quite a striking scene there. It's like, wow, yeah, 52 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: look at all that water. I mean, that goes on 53 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 1: for thousands of miles, all that water. I like the 54 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: way the next clip was some guy with a foreign accent. 55 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:25,679 Speaker 1: There is no water, you said, there it is. They 56 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: want to show they're covering it all. I don't know. 57 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: Should we Should we pile all these political hacks in 58 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: a van and take them out to the Pacific, All 59 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: the ones that were squawking about a lack of water. 60 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: Look at that out there. All you have to do 61 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: is suck out the salt. It's not that hard. I 62 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: really don't understand this. I don't understand human beings because 63 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: we've only lived here in great numbers for I don't know, 64 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: maybe you know, eighty years, a hundred years, there were 65 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: great numbers. Yeah, that's probably close four and a half 66 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: billion years the planet has been around, and in the 67 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: last eighty California started getting populated, and really not even 68 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: you know, seriously populated until maybe the last fifty sixty seventy, right, 69 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: And so most of the time this was empty space, 70 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 1: And we have no idea for the most part what 71 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: was going on here weatherwise, climate wise for those four 72 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: and a half billion years. But what we do know 73 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: is as far as back as they can chart the 74 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 1: geological records is there were droughts that sometimes would last 75 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: for a couple of hundred years. They know this for sure. 76 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: The water supply has never been evenly distributed where we 77 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: get exactly fourteen point three six inches of rain every 78 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: year in Los Angeles. It's never been like that. There 79 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: have been long periods of drought. There's occasionally short bursts 80 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,559 Speaker 1: where you get very heavy rainfall. You'll get forty inches 81 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: in a winter, but that happens only occasionally for a 82 00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: year or two. And who knows why. What the other 83 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: guy said in that climp was we've always had the 84 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: same amount of water on the planet. It's just redistributed 85 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: in different ways at different times. And most of the 86 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: water we have is out in the oceans. So since 87 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 1: we can't control the rainfall, we can't control the climate. 88 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: You have to look where the water is and then 89 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: spend the money on the system. Now we've already invented 90 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: the system. The salination plants have been standard for a 91 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 1: long time, and some nations in the Middle East, the 92 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: desert nations have been usually extensively for a long time. 93 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: So it's just a matter of or we're gonna build 94 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 1: this and then we're gonna use it, and then we 95 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: don't have a problem anymore. And it is no more 96 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: complicated than that. And you know what, ultimately, if this 97 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: drought goes on, let's say we're at the beginning of 98 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 1: the two hundred ear drought or one hundred ear or 99 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 1: fifty year, that's what they're gonna do. That's what's funny. 100 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 1: About this is they could stamp their feet and squawk 101 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 1: and try to you know, well, you're gonna have a 102 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 1: twenty two second shower. You're gonna only have half a 103 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: glass of water a day. Okay, fine, you know, keep 104 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: coming up with your wacky restrictions, keep jacking up the price. 105 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 1: Ultimately you're building the desalination plant because you have to, 106 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 1: or we're all funny stories. I saw a couple of 107 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: weeks ago, was at the Times people are conserving but 108 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: it won't be enough. Well, that's because people don't use 109 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: that great percentage of the total water. We've done that 110 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 1: all along, the nonsense about telling people not the water 111 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: their lawns and cut back on their showers. It only 112 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 1: helps it the margins to begin with. So if people 113 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: do actually cut back on that, it still makes no difference. 114 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: They can almost do nothing. Take no water here, there's 115 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: still gonna be problems. Here's what's crazy is instead of 116 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 1: having the educated, wise, older people who've been studying this 117 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: for decades giving us their wisdom on what to do next, 118 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: what we have our twenty five year old woke bloggers 119 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: at the LA Times. And then we have some empty 120 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: headed TV anchors giving us all the public service recommendations 121 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: on how to take a five minute shower, right, Well, 122 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: these people, there'sn't anybody at the l Times who knows 123 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: anything about anything. Okay, they don't know anything. And there's nobody, 124 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: you know, in most TV stations that know anything. There's 125 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: a few people who do, and you know, like the 126 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: people who put together it's Fox eleven documentary. You'll see 127 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: in the documentary they got a lot of information that's important, 128 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: but it's not something you see ordinarily on television. But 129 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: you know, anybody else, you know who's in the science 130 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: It says, hey, if you're gonna keep forty million people 131 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: alive with the climate as unpredictable as it is, and 132 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: it always has been unpredictable, what you have to do 133 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: is harness the ocean and turn that into a regular, reliable, 134 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: affordable source of water. And it can be done, and 135 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: it's being done all over the world, so just do it. Yet, 136 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: when it came time to approve a desalination plant here recently, 137 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: it got deep six in Huntington Beach. Yeah, that was 138 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: the one, and the governor was pushing it. San Diego 139 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: does it, but apparently water is expensive there because desalination 140 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: costs a lot of money to do, but yeah, they 141 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: are doing it for some percentage of their water supply. 142 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: It's not that big a percentage, but it helps. You Know, 143 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: what's more expensive, everybody has to move to another state 144 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: because this place went dry. Did anybody remember in school 145 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: when they taunt you about how the Native American tribes 146 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: moved from place to place to place. Number one reason 147 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: they moved lack of water, and then they couldn't grow food. 148 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: You'd have long droughts in certain places, and it would 149 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: only it'll take a short period of time before the 150 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: natives looked up and said, well, we can't live here anymore. 151 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: There's no rain and there's nowhere to grow up any crops. 152 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: So we got to get out of here, and so 153 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: they'd move. Well, that's going to happen to us. We're 154 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: no different. We still need the same water for food 155 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 1: and to drink, and we need it for everything else 156 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:55,599 Speaker 1: now in the modern world. So we're gonna have to 157 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: get up and leave. So if you don't want to 158 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: get up and leave, then you build a nation. Plant. 159 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: The people are leaving, probably for reasons other than drought, 160 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: but people are leaving. No this will be a total 161 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: forty million person stamped out of here. Maybe later on 162 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:16,959 Speaker 1: the show we'll talk about the fireside. Gotta admit I 163 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,079 Speaker 1: do agree with a couple of El Segundo Times columnists 164 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: who have been writing mostly about climate change. But they 165 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: did a story today which is about should we keep 166 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: rebuilding these towns that are in fire zones over and 167 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: over again, hundreds of millions of dollars spent. Even the 168 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,319 Speaker 1: congressman for that area, Douglamalpha, said how many times can 169 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,479 Speaker 1: I go to Congress and ask for big bucks to rebuild? 170 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,439 Speaker 1: I mean, you can't be living there. It's just it's 171 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 1: it's I realize you liked the forest around you, but 172 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: it's too dangerous and it's going to keep happening. All right. 173 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: When we come back, we are expecting to talk to 174 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: Fox elevens Gna Silva about this Channel eleven documentary that 175 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 1: airs tonight at seven on the drought and the fires 176 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,199 Speaker 1: coming up with the Johnny kencho kf I Am six 177 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: forty Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Well, we do 178 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: have Gina Silver Fox eleven reporter on the line now 179 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: talk about the special documentary tonight, Hell Slash, No Water 180 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 1: and it's an hour long documentary on the cycle of 181 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: drought and wildfires, the lack of water we have in California. 182 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 1: And I'm on in the little bits and pieces among 183 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: the people they interviewed for their opinions and knowledge and Gina, 184 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: how are you hi there? Thank you so much for 185 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: having me. Yes, you're in this documentary. And you know, 186 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: as you know, we cover the drought and water crisis 187 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: all the time, but it felt crucially important to have 188 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: the bigger conversation because this is a problem that is 189 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: getting worse. We're taking water for granted, we take so 190 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: much for granted. So we started doing some of these 191 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: interviews back in April, and we spent the entire team 192 00:10:54,800 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: just spent hours and hours researching and interviewing firefighters, water officials, farmers, 193 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 1: environmentalists and everyone had. For example, like Rick Diggerd he 194 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 1: went and toured the LA Fire Department's command center to 195 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: see what new technology they're using to put fires out quickly. 196 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: An evacuate residence Maria Quabaun, she went out to figure 197 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: out what She went out to Sampedro to tour the 198 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 1: plant there and figure out what, you know, what it's 199 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 1: like to make wastewater turn it into drinking water. So 200 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: we take a look at that. She actually takes a 201 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 1: drink of it and describes what it's all about. So 202 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: we take a look at that, and of course we 203 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: hear some of the important stories from farmers. I remember 204 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: doing this story years ago as well, where we went 205 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 1: to Fireball. We talked too many of the farmers who 206 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: for years have been suffering because of the drought and 207 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 1: it just doesn't get any better. They complain about the 208 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: government not helping them out, and it just nothing happens. 209 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: So they start losing their crops, and then it trickles 210 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:58,199 Speaker 1: down to the Micraine farm workers, so they start losing 211 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 1: their jobs. And then it starts affecting the little small, 212 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 1: you know, small modern pop shops, the little cafes starts 213 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: to shut down because they don't have any customers. Just 214 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: go down to Fireball and you start to see what 215 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 1: it's happened. What's happening to this entire town. So many 216 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 1: shops have closed down, and it's all connected to that. 217 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: So we hear from the farmers. We also hear from, 218 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: you know, personal stories of people who lost their homes 219 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: in fires. We hear from Denise and Roger Belle who 220 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: lost their home in the Blue Rich fire. They are 221 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,199 Speaker 1: now rebuilding, but they talk about the process and how 222 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 1: it hasn't been easy and many of us, you know, 223 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: we really don't pay attention to our insurance. For example. 224 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: We're supposed to, like, you know, make sure that you've 225 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: got the right insurance, and after you have a fire, 226 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: it's too late. So they talk about that and how 227 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 1: they should have done that before this fire. So they 228 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: learned a lesson, and you know, the whole idea of 229 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 1: the fire season that's out the window because this is 230 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: the new norm. There are so many fires that we 231 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: have to cover. It's hard to keep track of them, 232 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: you know. It's just so all of that is tack 233 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: in hell in the water and that starts. It premiers 234 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: tonight at seven pm on Fox eleven, right after Special Report. 235 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: Now looking forward to seeing it tonight because your the 236 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: other documentaries have been outstanding, So seven o'clock tonight on 237 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: Fox eleven. I also got to say the stories you 238 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: did about the Blue Dog tavern owner in Sherman Oaks 239 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 1: and that homeless guy who's throwing bags of his poop, Adam, 240 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: those are great stories. And finally, corner, Niffia Rod shocking. Yeah, yeah, 241 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 1: it is just shocking to see what it's going on. 242 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,839 Speaker 1: And for the longest time, not just in Sherman Oaks, 243 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: but I think all over LA County and probably all 244 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: over the country, people are afraid to speak up because 245 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 1: they're immediately told, oh, you don't care about the homeless, 246 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 1: you're criminalizing the homeless. And that's not the case. These 247 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: people do care about the homeless. They're just upset with 248 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 1: the criminal element. Were the ones coming to disrupt their businesses, 249 00:13:56,040 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 1: who are coming to their patios outdoors and shoot up, 250 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: you know, and harassing your customers. So they've united here 251 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: in Sherman Oaks. All of these business owners have decided 252 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: to say enough is enough.

People go out of their 276 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: way to find books, pretentious books to put behind them 277 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: so that other people on the Zoom meetings will think 278 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: they're really learned and impressed and sophisticated.

Yeah, I don't know what 287 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: to follow up is. And it's part of the problem 288 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: is that they're very is very little follow up to 289 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: see if these people end up. Oh, he's not gonna jail. 290 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: I think we know that. But you know, as she 291 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: was talking, it occurred to me. It occurred to me, 292 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: and you know, I am really starting to embrace I 293 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: wouldn't call them conspiracy theories, but I'm thinking that these 294 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: these aren't coincidences, and that there is it's part of 295 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: the plan of those who want to disrupt society, because 296 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: what they've done is they've successfully bullied politicians into long 297 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: longer enforcing the law, and in some cases elected politicians 298 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: like Gascon who will not enforce the law, and then 299 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: if anybody objects to it, they're very loud at shaming 300 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: you and shutting you down. It's like a one two punch. 301 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: First they bully the politicians. Second, they bully you when 302 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: there's pushback.

And I think they 315 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:33,159 Speaker 1: figured out how powerful social media is and how terrified 316 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: people are of public embarrassment or public criticism and ridicule, 317 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 1: and so nobody wants to risk saying anything in public 318 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 1: at all. I just finished reading a long story about 319 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 1: the polling, because the polling for the twenty twenty two election, 320 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: a lot of the polsters are really afraid that they're 321 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 1: going to blow it again, and they can't get around 322 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: the fact that there's a lot of people who simply 323 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: will not talk to them because they do not trust 324 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 1: that this information their opinions will be used against them 325 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,959 Speaker 1: in some way, which may sound really crazy paranoid, except 326 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,120 Speaker 1: there's a lot of people who will no longer talk 327 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 1: to anybody on the phone and express any kind of 328 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 1: private opinion. Yeah. Apparently for a number of elections they 329 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: keep undercounting, particularly conservative Republican votes, because those are generally 330 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: the people you're talking about. Yeah, they don't share their 331 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: two opinion or would even answer the pollster, and they 332 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: always seem to undercount them. Yeah. And also another category, 333 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 1: which is similar but a little bit different, is Trump voters, 334 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: who are not necessarily conservative Republicans, just people who like 335 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: Trump for whatever reason, and their Independents or even Democrats, 336 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,920 Speaker 1: and they realize how toxic it was to say publicly 337 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: there for Trump, and they're afraid that this interview with 338 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 1: the poster where you have to give out your name 339 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:51,440 Speaker 1: and some personal information is somehow going to be disseminated online. 340 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 1: People at work are going to know, their friends are 341 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: going to know, and they want to keep a secret, 342 00:18:56,280 --> 00:19:00,640 Speaker 1: almost like some weird sexual perversion, and it's quite prevalent. 343 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 1: And the polsters admit, you know, I've read their names 344 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: in the story this afternoon. They have no idea what 345 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: to do about this, because you simply cannot unlock these 346 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 1: people anymore. They think the FBI is going to knock 347 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,120 Speaker 1: on their door. Johnny Ken's O k if I am 348 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,360 Speaker 1: six forty five everywhere in the iHeart Radio app heard 349 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 1: a good one today. The reason that gas prices are 350 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: skyrockety again is because we the refineries delayed maintenance. You see, 351 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: they do ordinary refinery maintenance, but because the war broke 352 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: out between Russia and Ukraine earlier this year, they delayed 353 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,360 Speaker 1: it all until now. Yeah, they got a million that's 354 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: causing some slowdowns and shutdowns, right only in California, right, yes, Well, 355 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 1: I can't are very domestically refinery dependent, right right, and 356 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: all the other can't get oil from anywhere else. All 357 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: the other refineries in the country haven't been delayed by 358 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: the war in ukray all the maintenance. Yeah, I don't know. 359 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 1: We're gonna well, we can ask these questions next hour, 360 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 1: and we have on an expert that analyzes the whole 361 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,959 Speaker 1: oil and gas industry after four o'clock, it'll be Tom Claus. 362 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: We have Steve Gregory now here and Steve has got 363 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: the latest on Well, we were talking about two stories, 364 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: so which one of you started? Well, actually the one 365 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: that we're going to talk about has to do with 366 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: that teacher. Yeah, with an athletic trainer. Yeah, layout sure. 367 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: So this goes back to September twentieth a man named 368 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: Richard Turner had been arrested by LAPD. He was an 369 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,879 Speaker 1: athletic trainer at Birmingham High School, which is a charter 370 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: school in the San Fernando Valley, and he had been 371 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: booked for a sex assault on a student. Well, he 372 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 1: bailed out and then hours later he was re arrested 373 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: for a crime going back to twenty seventeen and that's 374 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 1: when he was working for the LAUSD as a contract 375 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: employee at Van Nuys High School, also as an athletic trainer. Well, 376 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 1: we did the story and we were reporting on it, 377 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: and I had had sources from the LAD tell me 378 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: more about this guy, and they actually compared it to 379 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: the Larry Nasser case. They say, this guy is there's 380 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 1: going to be more victims out there than they've ever 381 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:14,199 Speaker 1: had in recent time. These are athletic trainer jobs school system. Yeah, 382 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: and the first one was working for the LAUSD as 383 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: a subcontractor through a vending company. And the most recent 384 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 1: apparently he was employed by a charter school, and which 385 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: is the way the district made it sound very independent. 386 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: So anyway, today, so when he was re arrested on 387 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: the twentieth, he's been in jail on a seven hundred 388 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars bail leda George Gascon announced today that 389 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 1: they have filed fifteen counts sex related charges against this guy, 390 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: stemming from at least assaults on ten girls ages fifteen 391 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: to seventeen years old, going back to at least twenty 392 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: seventeen at the two schools between well between the two schools, yes, 393 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 1: but they now believe it could go as high as 394 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: over twenty girl said had been abused by this guy. 395 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: So if he got arrested in twenty seventeen at an 396 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: LAUSD school and which school was that he wasn't arrested 397 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,880 Speaker 1: now see this is where the rub comes in. So 398 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: he was accused and booked for sex related crimes or 399 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 1: sexual molestation of a student. The DA at the time 400 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 1: said there was insufficient evidence to charge him officially, so 401 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: he was never charged with that crime. But he left 402 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 1: soon after that from what we're told, and then he 403 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: popped up again at this charter school and we're not 404 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: sure what he did in between there and now. So 405 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: they rehired a guy who had left the system after 406 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:44,399 Speaker 1: getting arrested for some kind of sexual issue with young girls. 407 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 1: So he was allowed back into the school system. But 408 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: the district is being very very clear that that's an 409 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: independent school. It's over there at Birmingham High School, so 410 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: well so an independent school, but it's still part of LAUSD, 411 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: is it not. It's my understanding it is. But so 412 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: so here you go. I want you to read that 413 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: because this gives you an idea of what I deal 414 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 1: with when I'm trying to get information, especially from LUSD. 415 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 1: So I'm trying to get some information, So read the 416 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,959 Speaker 1: highlighted parts. Okay, So the first part of the email 417 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:23,360 Speaker 1: is from Steve Gregory to Shannon Haber at LAUSD, and 418 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: Steve is asking a question which vendor or contractor did 419 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: the district use that recently employed the athletic trainer Richard 420 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: Turner at Birmingham High School and previously in twenty seventeen 421 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: at Van Nuys High School. Also, can you confirm that 422 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 1: vendors and contractors are not mandatory reporters and the mandatory 423 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,360 Speaker 1: reporter is someone who works with kids is bound by 424 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: law to report any instances of violence or abuse to 425 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: the officials. All right, So Shannon Haber responds, Hi, Steve, 426 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: I'm not sure we have further information to share here, 427 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: but I'm copying my colleague, mister Vaughan on this email, 428 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 1: so see below and plea advice. Then you are responded 429 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 1: to with this statement. Here's our statement. We are set 430 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: into report that we've been notified that a former athletic 431 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:12,959 Speaker 1: trainer was recently arrested in relation to sex assault allegations. 432 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 1: The former trainer was a contract vendor on a limited 433 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,880 Speaker 1: basis at the Los Angeles Unified District several years ago 434 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: and currently works for an independent charter school. LAPD is 435 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 1: asking for an investigation. Blah blah blah blah. Then you 436 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 1: write back, thank you for your reply. However, my questions 437 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: went unanswered. These are not questions for the lap These 438 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: are district and related. Which vendor and contractor did the 439 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: district use and can you confirm that they are not 440 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 1: mandatory reporters. Then you get this response. Well, due to 441 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: an ongoing law enforcement investigation, we're unable to comment or 442 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 1: respond at this time. Thanks Britt. Vaughan Public information officer 443 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,439 Speaker 1: Steve wrote back to Britt, neither of those questions has 444 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,479 Speaker 1: an impact on the investigation. I've asked a policy question 445 00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,160 Speaker 1: and a vendor question, which is correct, and it's crickets. Yeah, 446 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,639 Speaker 1: now I don't have any more from Britt. So that 447 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 1: that Brits talked Shannon Aberson talking, well, you know how 448 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: to how to charm people? Yeah, well this is this 449 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: is typical. Yeah, I went to the John of Kinns 450 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 1: School of Communications, So I mean this is typical circle 451 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: of wagons. I mean, these guys are gonna be writing 452 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,479 Speaker 1: a check. It's no doubt. I noticed their language, how 453 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: they try to so immediately. So you know it was 454 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: a subcontracted vendor. It was an independent school, former trainer 455 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 1: kind of several years ago for a limited time. Everything 456 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 1: is about downplaying and mitigating what happened. That you had 457 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: a crazed pervert here sexually abusing potentially a large number 458 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: of girls. That's what happened. Now this also they revealed 459 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: today the LAPD captain that spoke at the DAS press 460 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 1: conference also admitted that the LAUSD was aware of these 461 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: issues back in twenty seventeen. So this guy was fully uh, 462 00:25:55,880 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: his actions were fully aware, his actions were made known 463 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: to the LUST. So they're in total crisis, you know, 464 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: management mode right now. I mean, clearly this is ke 465 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 1: R one O one right here. I mean, yeah, there's 466 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,239 Speaker 1: there's nothing worse the crisis management one guy who had 467 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 1: a public record on the loose in continuing to molest right. 468 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 1: So now I'm not sure this relationship. This charter school 469 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 1: things are always such a mystery to me because they 470 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,639 Speaker 1: have this independence, but then they are tied to the 471 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 1: teacher unions and then some are tied to the districts 472 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 1: for funding purposes, and they're not independent the way a 473 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 1: private school is independent. Yeah, they're not a private school 474 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: or a public No, they're they're they're much more a 475 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 1: public school than they are Harvard Westlake. Yeah. So this 476 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:41,719 Speaker 1: guy here, they say that he most likely drugged and 477 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 1: gave the girls alcohol, and some of these girls were 478 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 1: molested without their knowledge while they were unconscious. Yikes, So um, 479 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: you're looking at um um pretty serious stuff here. The 480 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 1: girls were fifteen to seventeen years old. Fifteen counts on 481 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 1: this go around, and they suspect there's going to be 482 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 1: many more. Kind I'd like to another name of the 483 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 1: person who hired him for the Birmingham job. Well, BRIT's 484 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: not going to tell me no, No, neither is Shannon Neeter. 485 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 1: Shannon all right, Steve, very good, Thanks guys.

All right, here's some great research, complete 501 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 1: with pictures. As it's once again pick on a vegan day. 502 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 1: Who we welcome back Deborah Mark to the show. What 503 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 1: is it like? You took two weeks off and then 504 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 1: took yesterday off. Yeah, but yesterday wasn't for a vacation. 505 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: It was it was a personal and it wasn't the 506 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 1: Jewish holiday. It was your depress because I needed to 507 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: sleep a little more and take some mendy the vegan 508 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 1: depression we talked about earlier. Yes, yes, exactly, she needs 509 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: like a depressed day, yea for as an anxiety day, 510 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: which one is. After I came back to the show, 511 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: my anxiety levels just went up so much that I 512 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: needed a three day weekend. This is actually your break 513 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: from your stressed out life. You have more time to 514 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: think about all these things. That is true, to sit 515 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: there and just a bathe in all of your anxiety. Um. 516 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:02,479 Speaker 1: This was research out of England on I mean, the 517 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: photos are remarkable. They're ultrasounds of fetuses, which I would 518 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 1: say we're almost ready to give birth because these are 519 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: human being looking. They're very well developed. They're very well developed. 520 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 1: Anybody wants to argue that you should be able to 521 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 1: abort up to pretty much the entire gestation period, they're 522 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: out of their minds when you look at these pictures. 523 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: What they were researching is what happens when the mother 524 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: is fed different foods? Does it show up in any 525 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: reaction from the fetus. So they studied four d ultrasound 526 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: scans of one hundred pregnant women and they discovered the 527 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 1: babies who got carrot flavors because it comes through the 528 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: ambionic fluid. They actually smiled a bit. But man, when 529 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 1: the kale went in there, oh the grimaces and the 530 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: cry baby pop popped up. And it's funny. You can 531 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 1: see the child frowning. The kale face looks like John 532 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: being given a plate of vegetables. Well, that is your face. 533 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 1: That that was me when I was in the roomb. 534 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 1: You know, my mom was big on eating vegetables. She 535 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 1: rarely ate meat. She wasn't a fanatic like Deborah, but 536 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 1: she didn't eat meat much. And you see now that 537 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: that's funny that you mentioned that, because that's another part 538 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: of the study. But we'll get to it when you well, 539 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: I think That's why I came out so cranky because 540 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 1: she ate so many vegetables. I had nine months of 541 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: you know, peppers. She really liked peppers and tomatoes and 542 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: asparagus and broccoli, and I couldn't wait to get out 543 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 1: of it. That caused your crankiness, Yes, really, Oh, every 544 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: day tasted bad. They have a term for it, uh, 545 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: nasal labial furrow is the feet is frowning. Another one 546 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: it's called the lower lip depressor. And that's when you 547 00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 1: can I can tell the lower lower lip kind of 548 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: I both of those. Now, you defy what they're hoping 549 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: to do with this research. They believe that if you 550 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 1: continue to expose the fetus to these types of flavors, 551 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: these vegetables, over time, it will actually more or less 552 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: embrace them. But apparently John, if his mother ate this 553 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 1: stuff the whole pregnancy, it didn't work. No, because he 554 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: has rejected vegetables his whole life. Because my taste buds, 555 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: that's that's my sensory. What would you call it? They 556 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 1: call this conditioning though. They thought maybe as you get 557 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: more and more exposed to the flavors, you might accept them. 558 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: As the word they're using now, it gets worse and worse. 559 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 1: You're just stubborn. I think that's what it is. And 560 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: at this point, because so many people around you tell 561 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 1: you how healthy vegetables are, You've just decided, Nope, I'm 562 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: not going to eat them. I don't like them. But 563 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 1: I guarantee you if I made you a stir fried 564 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 1: vegetarian dish or vegan dish, you would like it. You know, 565 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: I could go home for this. I could get exactly 566 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 1: the same speech at home. Okay, well, maybe maybe some 567 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: of this needs to think in. These stories always end 568 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: with her promising to make you something you will love. 569 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: I know. That's that's the whole always the whole thing. 570 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 1: She's going to bring something in or make something. It 571 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: just hasn't been made right yet. We could do a 572 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 1: whole John and Deborah cooking show and see what happened. 573 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: If he makes the feet his face. Look, I'll melt 574 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 1: a lot of cheese all over it. You won't even notice, essay, 575 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: So why don't I just eat the cheese? No, what's 576 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: the point of it. That defeats the whole purpose. It 577 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 1: does reduce the nutritional value. You start slobbering it with 578 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 1: all cheese. There it is look at the unhappy face. 579 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 1: Oh wait, that's happy. This is my face, all right, 580 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: looks the second one. She showed us the happy face first, 581 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: So I think something's whacky. That's the carrot face. And 582 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: have salad every night before dinner. They did. Yeah, forced us. 583 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: Oh it's child abuse, child abuse, you know what. I 584 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 1: would sit there and not eat for hours, and my 585 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 1: mother would say, Okay, you can't do anything. You can't 586 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: go out and play, can't go to your room, can't 587 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: do you have to sit there, and she would get up, 588 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: and so my dad, they'd wash the dishes, they'd leave 589 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: the room, they shut the lights. They'd leave me in 590 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: a dark kitchen, and I'd be staring at the plate 591 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 1: of vegetables. And I never gave in. You never gave in. Nope, 592 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 1: it's you know. You slept in the chair too. I 593 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 1: just I just sat there and until I they wandered off, 594 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: and then I snuck away. But all right, we're gonna 595 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: be also looking at gas prices this coming hour. California 596 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 1: saw another big surge overnight. Southern California gas prices a 597 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 1: bunch of thirteen cents a gallon increase overnight. We are 598 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: way out of whack with the rest of the country, 599 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 1: the biggest gap in over twenty years. We're gonna talk to, uh, well, 600 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 1: somebody from the whole gas and oil industry analysts point 601 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: of view as to what could be causing California be 602 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: so out of whack that More coming up Johnny kN Show, 603 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: calf I AM six forty live everywhere in the iHeartRadio 604 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: app in, Deborah Mark Live in the twenty four hour 605 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 1: Caffeine Airs Room,
