I care about that stuff. I love those 26 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: two shows. So we are going to talk about that later, 27 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 1: along with Kim Kardashian has Kim Kardashian has a new 28 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 1: private equity fund. I am not made that as a 29 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: real story first though. For if you're one of the 30 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: twenty four thousand people or however many it is that 31 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: are having to be evacuated because of the fire out 32 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: towards him at Blake trolleys with us Blake, what's going on? Yeah, 33 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: so that number is actually more than thirty seven thousand 34 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: people who have been told to leave their homes ten thousand, 35 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: get this, Shaane, ten nine hundred thirty seven homes or 36 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: under evacuation orders right now. More than two thousand homes 37 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: right now are under warning. The majority of people, though 38 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,239 Speaker 1: I'm being told, are choosing to stay in their homes, 39 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: which is creating a lot of challenges for firefighters who 40 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: are having to leave fighting the fire to help people 41 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: evacuate last minute. Now, with rain and wind in the forecast, 42 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: mudflide and flood evacuations could be on the way. The 43 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: Riverside County Sheriff's apartment told me several minutes ago that 44 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: they're keeping an eye on it. They say it all 45 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: depends on what happens. They say the land is prime 46 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: for mudslides and flooding. Of course after fires. That's because 47 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: there's no foliage to collect the water. There's nothing to 48 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: catch it, so the chaos just begins. Now, pet pets, 49 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: and livestock have all been evacuated, everything from donkeys to goats, 50 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: to chickens, and as you mentioned yesterday, to tigers. Now 51 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: tigers have not been evacuated, but they have been under 52 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: an evacuation watch. The Diamond Lodged Tigers Sanctuary that's in Sage, which, 53 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: as you may remember from yesterday, we're being told that's 54 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: the community that's being threatened by flames. Sage or the 55 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: sanctuary has been watching the fire. I want to go 56 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: to this bite. This is from Samantha Potter with the lodge. 57 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: She says this week has been a nightmare. At times, 58 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: it felt out here like Imageddon. The heat the fire. 59 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: When's it going to end? The fire has subsided and 60 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: we think it's moving on and then it just with 61 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: its ugly head again and we're off again. And now 62 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: the four tigers right now that are on location, they're 63 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: on stand by. They're trained and ready to be loaded 64 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: into transport units which then get loaded into trucks. It 65 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: sounds like moving the tigers really is last resort, as 66 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: it will be extremely stressful for the animals, so they 67 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: really want to make sure that's the pretty much the 68 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: last thing they can do before they end up having 69 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: to take that action. The lodge right now, though, actually 70 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: has a command center Jane watching over the fire. They're 71 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: watching the wind and fire activity. There are two retired 72 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: firefighters on location. They're assisting, and actually at one point 73 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: one of those firefighters, this was Wednesday night, said I 74 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: think you need more containment lines. I want to go 75 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: to this next by. What happened was the sanctuary actually 76 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: put out a Facebook post asked people they could come 77 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 1: by and help, and people responded in a big way. 78 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: Probably fifteen people actually show up ready to work and 79 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: it didn't matter what they were asked to do, which 80 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: was overwhelming. The support that we received, and on on 81 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 1: top of that, the day after, we had numerous people 82 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 1: all day long calling to AID to give us aid assistance, 83 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: whatever that may be. So we kind of express our 84 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: gratitude to the community enough to secure our additional barriers 85 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: that we created. Jane, I'm told those volunteers worked till 86 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: six o'clock in the morning. They showed up at night 87 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: and worked till six am. What I'm doing doing what 88 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: like helping to dig lines around or keep the tiger? 89 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: They were more exactly, they were building containment lines. So 90 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: a retired firefighter, as I mentioned, said, you need more 91 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:24,799 Speaker 1: containment lines than the ones you've already established. Apparently, amazing 92 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: fifteen people showed up, she says. The next day the 93 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: phone was still ringing with people who wanted to go 94 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: by and help. And Uh, it was a big, big, 95 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: big effort, you know, mostly using hand tools to build 96 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: these build these containment lines. I don't I wonder how 97 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: you load four tigers and then where you take them. Um, 98 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: I'm sure that's a whole logistical endeavor on its own. 99 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: But we're not there yet. We are not there yet, 100 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: no exactly, And it sounds like as of right now 101 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 1: again they're just keeping things on firewatch. But as she 102 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: mentioned that, you know, if they load these tigers in 103 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 1: the trucks, they do have food on standby. Well, each 104 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 1: tiger eats. I google this, tigers eat up to thirty 105 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: five pounds of food a day each. Yeah, so they're 106 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: big cats. Taken off with these animals. Yeah, they're big cats. 107 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: They eat a lot of like chicken and pork, things 108 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: that you can get from the store, but just huge 109 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: amounts of it, you know, thirty forty pounds. Yeah, well, 110 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: maybe one of the volunteers can volunteer herself. I'm just 111 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: curious though. It's funny how you'll get fifteen people to 112 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: come out and work all night to save four tigers. 113 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: But you know, meantime, you've got thirty seven thousand people 114 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: who need to evacuate, and most of them are staying put. 115 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: That is a tremendous amount of people who are being 116 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: asked to evacuate and all those homes. I'm not out there. 117 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just sort of curious how close the 118 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: fire is getting, and with rain in the forecast, if 119 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: that's one reason why so many people are saying, well, 120 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: you know it's going to rain. I don't need to go. Yeah, 121 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: that's a really good point, you know, as we as 122 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,359 Speaker 1: we mentioned yesterday though, you know, the firefighters have explained 123 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: to me that the way these fires are working, that's 124 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: really just a bad idea because if one of these 125 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: fires starts heading towards your home, unlike in the past, 126 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: they are just zipping towards homes. So as it's been 127 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: explained to me, it's a it's a really bad idea. 128 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: And in fact, as we heard on Wednesday, firefighters had 129 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: to stop what they were doing and they had to 130 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: actually help people get out that were then being threatened. 131 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: So definitely not recommended. And where do they go? Where? 132 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: Where should these evacuees go? So there there have been 133 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: several evacuation sites um set up for people and for animals. 134 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: Give me one, like I'm going to pull it the lake, 135 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: you know, here, you go ahead, Okay, So there's Tacquits 136 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: High School, Temecula Community Recreation Center to Mecula Valley High School. 137 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: They say there is room for everybody now for large animals, 138 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: and as I mentioned, there was a lot of livestock 139 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: that's been moved out of these hills. There's the Santacinto 140 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: Animal Campus and the fair grounds in Paris, and then 141 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: for small animals, they can also go to the Santa 142 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: Cintough Animal Campus as well, and they say food and 143 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: water is available for those animals. Thanks Blake. If you 144 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: get any more information on they're going to have to 145 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: move these tigers, let us know, because I am that's 146 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: something that's something I'd like to know what happened with that? 147 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: Thank you? Absolutely, Okay, take care, Okay when we come back. 148 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: Teachers teachers in trouble for various reasons. I will have 149 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: one where I agree with the teacher and one where 150 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: I don't. Actually, he's not a teacher, he's a former 151 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: now a former principal. Jane Wells filling in for John 152 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: and kink If I am six forty Happy Friday. This 153 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: is the last day of the heat, the never ending, 154 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: longest heat wave, most miserable heat wave I can ever 155 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: remember in my entire existence in Los Angeles, and I 156 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: was born here. But today's the last day. It's going 157 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: to be better tomorrow. Yes, apparently we're going to have 158 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: torrential rain and it's all you know, lightning and hell, 159 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: Hell's going to break loose, but it won't be hot, 160 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: so I see the glass is half full. There are 161 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: two stories about school administrators and teachers that I wanted 162 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,079 Speaker 1: to point out today. The first one Eric, you sent 163 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: to me, Engineer Eric Sklar. This principle or now former 164 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: principle up in the Fresno area, Brian Vollart was seen 165 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: on video last June shoving a special ed student in 166 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: like it looked like the cafeteria. It's if you go 167 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: to online you can probably find because the Fresno Unified 168 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: School District released it. And in this video, this boy 169 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: comes up to talk to the guy. It's kind of 170 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: a burly guy for a principle, by the way, points 171 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: at the principle and the principle's looking down at him. 172 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: He's a good foot taller, and then he just shoves 173 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: him like it's really stunning. You saw it, Eric, Yeah, 174 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: it's like a forearm shiver. And so we don't know 175 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: what the kids said, but clearly the principle was not 176 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: de escalating the situation, and so Brian vol Art was 177 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 1: immediately resigned the next day. But guess what, he's just 178 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 1: been rehired at a different high school. He is now 179 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: at Tranquility High School. I think he's a vice principle. 180 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, he's a vice principal at the appropriately ironically 181 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: named Tranquility High School. And so what the I think 182 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: what the superintendent is saying is nobody at Tranquility ever 183 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: asked like, Hey, should we know anything about these guys 184 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 1: this guy before we hire him. Of course, there's all 185 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,839 Speaker 1: kinds of limits on what you can or cannot say 186 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: about an ex employee, but it's that guy should not 187 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: be around students. No, not at all. And I mean 188 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: when I was I'm addicted to Twitter, Jane, just let 189 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 1: you know right off the bat, that's where I found 190 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 1: the story. And sometimes when I'm just throlling Twitter and 191 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: I see a story that I think that would fit 192 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: the show, I'll send it to Ray, I'll send it 193 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: to the guys. Obviously I sent it to you since 194 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: you're filling in, um. But when I saw it, I 195 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: was just like, how is this kid or how is 196 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: this guy? Yeah, have a job, yeah, around kids? Yeah 197 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: the kid. The boy is eleven years old according to 198 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: the story, and that now vol Art has been charged 199 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 1: this week with cruelty to a child by endangering health, 200 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: a misdemeanor. And that's a misdemeanor. That's not a filling. 201 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,559 Speaker 1: I mean, he but he should just not have a 202 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: job around kids. He he that's battery, you know, that 203 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: is that is assault. He he just shoved him. If 204 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: he pushes an adult with the same force, the adult 205 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: that he pushed probably moves the same amount. Right now, 206 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: that's a well, he's a big guy. If you look 207 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,559 Speaker 1: at him here, yeah, he looks like an athletic right, 208 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: like a coach exactly. Oh my gosh. Of course being 209 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: a being a principle is a horrible job. But that 210 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 1: doesn't mean especially special needs kid. Yeah, that's really what 211 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 1: stood out to me. It was like, this is a 212 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: special needs kid. School is supposed to be like a 213 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 1: safe haven for these kinds of kids. Yes, they say, 214 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: they say. The kid wasn't harmed and is receiving the 215 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: I don't know, comforter or services he needs. But yeah, 216 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 1: now he's a well, I don't know. Last check, we'll 217 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: have to do an update and see if he's still 218 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: the vice principal at Tranquility High School closer to home. 219 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: The high school named after a Wall Street Journal reporter, 220 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: a crusading reporter who ended up being kidnapped by terrorists 221 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: and beheaded. The Daniel Pearl Magnet High School has suspended 222 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: it's the advisor to the school newspaper for three days 223 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: because she refused to edit a story by one of 224 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: her students. Now, last fall, the student did a story 225 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: on the vaccine mandate in the school district and there 226 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 1: was a librarian who quit her job rather than get 227 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: a vaccine, and the student published the librarian's name. Now, 228 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: this is an adult. This isn't a juvenile, this is 229 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: an adult, so she published the name. Well, a librarian 230 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: asked the newspaper or the school newspaper, the advisor if 231 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: she would Adriana Chavira is the name of the advisory, 232 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 1: She said, please remove my name from the story under 233 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: a HIPPA concerns in my privacy. Well, they checked with 234 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: the Student Press Loss Center, and we're told by an 235 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: attorney that they were within their rights to keep the 236 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: name in the story, just like any other reporter would be. 237 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: Student reporters have the same First Amendment protections as any reporter. 238 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 1: And if I'd gotten this person's name, I could have 239 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: used it and would not be accused of a violating 240 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,680 Speaker 1: HIPPA or be told to remove the name. But since 241 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 1: this was a student newspaper within the school district. They 242 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 1: came to her and then like a uta, a teacher's 243 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,359 Speaker 1: union rep said, you're going to be found in subordinate 244 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 1: if you do not make the student remove the name 245 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 1: of the librarian. And to her credit, in my opinion, 246 00:13:55,920 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: she stirred her ground. Chavira said, no, I'm not anything, no, no, 247 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: Obviously she said. That was not well received, and she 248 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: has now faced a three day suspension for standing up 249 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 1: for journalistic principles getting legal advice, saying they were within 250 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: their rights to do so at a high school, at 251 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: a high school named after a journalist. I'm thinking, when 252 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: the teachers union is trying to put the squeeze on you, 253 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: you know you're in the right. Again. The student wasn't 254 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 1: naming a minor. This wasn't some you know, fourteen year 255 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: old charged with murder or a sexual assault victim or 256 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: something like that. This was a librarian who quit her 257 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: job over not taking the vaccine. And they found out 258 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: not through the school records, so there was no violation there. 259 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how they found out, but it was 260 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: a legit way they found out, apparently because the lawyer 261 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: told me, yeah, you can go ahead and use this 262 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: so I it's another reason why I'm glad my kids 263 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: were never in l Us because of that. When we 264 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: come back something completely different. Has HBO pulled back from nudity? 265 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: Is it a new era? Is it such a new 266 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: era that there's not only no nudity or less in 267 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: HBO shows like House of the Dragon, but men are 268 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: emasculated on shows like The Rings of Power. Elon must thinks, 269 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: so we will talk about all that. Jane Wells filling 270 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: in and John and ken k If. I am six 271 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 1: forty as you look forward to Sunday and the next 272 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: installment of House of the Dragon, I thought to myself, 273 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: as I've watched it, and I've watched I've been I'm 274 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: completely up to date on House of the Dragon. I've 275 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: only watched the first episode of the Rings of Power, 276 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 1: but I got to catch up on that too, and 277 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: I'm happy to say they're not the same. I was 278 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 1: afraid it was going to be too much of the 279 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: same thing, but it's not. Well. One thing I noticed 280 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: is other than the obligatory or scene in the pilot 281 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: for a House of the Dragon, and what I thought 282 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: overall was a tasteful sex scene with Matt Smith. Given 283 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: the history of HBO, there's not a lot of the 284 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: normal HBO scenes of naked women running around because you 285 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: could always tell whether it was The Sopranos or Game 286 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 1: of Thrones or whatever. Every you know, every HBO show, 287 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: especially on the pilot, there was tons and tons of nudity, 288 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: and not so much with House of the Dragon. And 289 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: it is true according to the HBO officials that this 290 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: is a sign of the times. I mean, we're now 291 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: hosts in the Me Too movement. We're more about empowering women. 292 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 1: There are now intimacy coordinators on sets, which didn't exists 293 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: in the original Game of Thrones, and Amelia Clark said 294 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: it made her very uncomfortable that she'd only been on 295 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: the set for two days and all of a sudden 296 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: she has to be naked in front of everyone. Actually, 297 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: I think she said Jason Momoa finally told her, you know, 298 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 1: you need to spick up, speak up about your feelings. 299 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: And after the first season, I don't think she was 300 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 1: ever nude again. She used a body double, right, oh boy, 301 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: Sarac's body double. That was the body double of all 302 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: time doing the Walk of Shame. That was that was 303 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: That was amazingly done. And you know who? Who's the 304 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: body double? You know who do you are? I got 305 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: this great gig, Dad, I'm in Game of Thrones. Oh honey, 306 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: I'm so proud. What do you do? Well? You won't 307 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: see my head, but I'm going to walk naked through 308 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: the entire town. Oh, I'm so happy for you. Anyhow, 309 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 1: there's less of that now, and according to the chief 310 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 1: content officer at HBO, shows our product of their time, 311 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: and there's a lot more awareness now about what they're 312 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: portraying and why and who's having the conversations about it, 313 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: and there's more. Even Matt Smith is weighing in, so 314 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: not Matt money Smith, Matt Smith, who plays Damon Targarian, 315 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,360 Speaker 1: And that just gives me an excuse to have this 316 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: clip plate of him. Welcome to dragon Stone. Your occupation 317 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 1: of this island is at amend. You're to relinquish the 318 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 1: Dragon's egg, disband your army, danish your whole and leave 319 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,159 Speaker 1: Dragonstone by order of His Grace, Kings the King. I 320 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,199 Speaker 1: don't see him. His Grace would never lower himself to 321 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 1: entertain such a mumma's foss. By the way, that whole 322 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 1: scene was reminiscent of him being Prince Philip in The Crown. 323 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: He was my favorite Prince Philip in that series. So 324 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: Matt Smith, not Matt money Smith, but Matt Smith the 325 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: actor was interviewed by Rolling Stone about upcoming sex scenes, 326 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: and you know, because it's famous for the sex scenes, 327 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,239 Speaker 1: and there was one with him so far, but it 328 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 1: wasn't nearly what you were used to sing. So Smith 329 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: said to them, you do find yourself asking do we 330 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: need another sex scene? And they say, yes, we do. 331 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: And I guess you to ask yourself, what are they doing? 332 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: Are they representing books or are you deluding the books 333 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: to represent the time we're living in? And I actually 334 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: think it's your job to represent the books truthfully and 335 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: honestly as they were written. Well, you're just the actor, apparently, 336 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 1: and you didn't say no. But when he was asked 337 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: if featured in some of the sex scenes, he replied, yes, 338 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 1: slightly too much if you ask me. So I'm thinking 339 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: we're going to see more of Matt Smith, and we've 340 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: seen a lot already as things come up. But the 341 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 1: showrunners did say that they have changed. Executive producer Sarah 342 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 1: Has told Vanity Fair early this month it's a far 343 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 1: cry from Game of Thrones, especially when it comes to 344 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: sexual violence, most notably when sounds a Stark is raped 345 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: on her wedding night. That was awful. So you're not 346 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: going to see something like that directly on the show. 347 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: It sounds like it'll be more off camera off screen, 348 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: which I find half the time, if it's off screen, 349 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: it's more awful because you are imagining it. On the 350 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:09,360 Speaker 1: other hand, there is no lack of blood and guts 351 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: literally and House of the Dragon, I mean when he 352 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: when he when uh Damon takes care of the crab 353 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: what is he called the crab eater? The crab feeder? Yeah, 354 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 1: oh my, did you guys see that? Yeah, this last 355 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 1: episode was real. I was like, what the heck, So 356 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: we're not gonna have um, you know, gratuitous nudity. We're 357 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 1: just going to quadruple down on the gore. And he 358 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 1: didn't say a word for like the last twenty minutes 359 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,439 Speaker 1: of the episode. It was phenomenal, it was. It was 360 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,120 Speaker 1: a great episode. But when he's dragging out the top 361 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: half of and who was that guy, by the way, 362 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 1: who was the who was the crab feeder? I mean, 363 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: look him up? But that was good, and we Americans 364 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: have always had weird attitudes. They'll accept all the violence 365 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 1: and gore you can handle, but not the sex. Yeah, 366 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 1: but they're a little victorian about the sex. Yeah, we 367 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: are when we were a country founded by Puritans or 368 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 1: I won't. I don't know if you want to say founded. 369 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: There were people who living here having a good time 370 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: without us. But let me transition then to Lord of 371 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: the Rings, the Rings of power. Because you brought up 372 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 1: something yesterday, Mark that people were complaining about elves of color. Yeah, 373 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 1: I'd hate for somebody to have to suspend their disbelief 374 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: for an elf of color. Yeah, I are there. I'm sorry. 375 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 1: It's it's if Ismail Cruise Cordova wants to be an elf, 376 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: he can come to my house anytime. I don't understand 377 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 1: why people are getting all hot and bothered about this 378 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 1: sort of thing. It's twenty twenty two. Shonda Rhymes has 379 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 1: been doing some incredible things, but that's not what bothered 380 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: Elon Musk. Elon Musk is upset because he thinks all 381 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 1: the men in the show are quote either a coward, 382 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: a jerk, or both. Only Galadriel is brave, smart and nice, 383 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: so This is a clip from the first episode where 384 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: el Ron in this new show meets Galadriel. By the way, 385 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 1: I love the fact that in the new Lord of 386 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: the Rings is not el Ron and Galadriel's Nadal. Here's 387 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 1: the clip. I hear it said that when you cross over, 388 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:17,399 Speaker 1: you hear a song, one whose memory we all carry, 389 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 1: and you are immersed in a light more intoxicating than 390 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:24,159 Speaker 1: any sensation in all of Middle Earth. When I was 391 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:28,159 Speaker 1: a child, it was the only feeling I knew. And 392 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: look at you now, Commander of the Northern Armies, warrior 393 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 1: of the Wastelands. I half expected you to arrive kked 394 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: in grime and mud, this time frostbite controlled blood. Yeah, 395 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: so she's a badass and he's back at home being 396 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 1: weak whatever. I do think what Elon is complaining more 397 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 1: about is just his dig at Amazon Prime, which is 398 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: owned by arch rival Jeff Bezos, than he has about 399 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 1: anything else. I mean, why is Elon Musk really watching? 400 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: Of course, I know he doesn't sleep at all the 401 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 1: Ring the Power, But I think for me, it's nice 402 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 1: to see all these strong women, But do we and 403 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: I'm a woman, do we have to have a strong 404 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: every lead now? You know, whether it's Raniera or Galadriel 405 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,719 Speaker 1: or fill in the blank, every you know, every woman 406 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 1: has to be a bad as leader. Now, guys, I 407 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 1: know you don't want to touch that. No, no, I will. 408 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,399 Speaker 1: People just have a tough time with the fact that 409 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: it's fiction and their characters and you don't have to 410 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: have it represent your ideal of what real life should be. Well. 411 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 1: I agree with that, but it's sort of like, now 412 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 1: every show is becoming the same, and maybe it's time 413 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: for the pendulum goes the other way, where every Disney movie, 414 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 1: every Disney movie practically is now surround about a female character. 415 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: And that's great and long overdue, but does it have 416 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 1: to be every movie? And here's what's interesting. If you 417 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:10,920 Speaker 1: go back to House of the Dragon, only the female 418 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 1: leads get swapped out for new actresses as the as 419 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: the season moves on. The men stay the same. And 420 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 1: I don't quite understand why they had to do that, 421 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:21,919 Speaker 1: because I kind of like the female leads they have 422 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: right now, the young actress who plays Rania, I mean, 423 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 1: why does she have to be changed out? And yet 424 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: you know Damon's still going to be Damon. Oh, I 425 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,959 Speaker 1: didn't know they were changing her. I looked her up. 426 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 1: She's in her twenties. I don't see why she couldn't 427 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: keep playing the character. She is going to be both 428 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,640 Speaker 1: her and Alison high Tower if I said that, right, 429 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 1: the one who married the Patty count Yes, House of 430 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: the Dragons. So yeah, So here's what's happening. For reasons 431 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: that I don't understand. Well, the first season spans I believe, 432 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 1: like fifteen years or so. Yeah, but the men aren't leaving, right, 433 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: you know, you have Olivia Cook's going to come in 434 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: and replace Emily Carrey as Allison high Tower. Millie Alcock 435 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: is the one that you're talking about right now, and 436 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: she gets replaced by and I'm not seeing its way 437 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: down here. Oh by, here's the guy who plays the 438 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 1: crab Feeder, Daniel Scott Smith. Look at him. He looks 439 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: like they didn't even have to do, you know, much 440 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 1: of a makeup job. Apparently he sat in the makeup 441 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: chair for like seven hours the first time, and then 442 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: they cut it down to like four or five hours 443 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: the next time. Wow, well he's got It's amazing. He 444 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: looks he looks kind of like the guy except for 445 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: all the burn marks and all that sort of thing. Okay, 446 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: when we come back. What are you doing? Oh yeah, 447 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 1: Kim Kardashian has launched a new private equity firm. Why 448 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 1: not everybody else's Jane Well's feeling for John and kin 449 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: Kay if I am six forty. Steve Gregory is busy 450 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: frantically going through this court document he's gotten his hands on, 451 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: so this is breaking in real time. This involves Nicole 452 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: Lorraine Linton, the traveling nurse who is accused of killing 453 00:25:55,480 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 1: all those people in a crash in at Lebrey and 454 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 1: Slawson in August fourth, including a pregnant woman and her 455 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: obviously unborn child. What you are I see her eyebrows 456 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 1: going up and down and oh my god and that 457 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: kind of thing. Um. Yeah. This is the the DA's 458 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 1: motion to oppose bail. The defense had requested bail because 459 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: they claimed that Miss Linton suffered a medical mishappen which 460 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 1: she lost consciousness prior to the crash, and the DA's 461 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: motion says the opposite. It says that the defense motion 462 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: only cites the portion of medical records that speak to 463 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 1: possible causes and such a laugh of a lapse, but 464 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: leaves out the nature of the lapse and the conclusion, 465 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 1: It says experts at UCLA have determined that there was 466 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: no indication the defendants suffered a medical event such as 467 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 1: the seizure. Really, so they examined her like what whatever, However, 468 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: you determined if she had a yeah, the seizure, okay, 469 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 1: and it's it's opposite of what the defense's medical officials 470 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 1: medical experts are saying. But then it also cites of 471 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: her other past behavior talks about here. It was originally 472 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: estimated the defendant sped through the crowded intersection and approximately 473 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: ninety miles per hour. Further analysis reveals her speed at 474 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,360 Speaker 1: impact was one hundred and thirty miles an hour, oh 475 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: my god, and that she floored the gas pedal for 476 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:32,120 Speaker 1: at least five seconds leading into the crash, going from 477 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 1: one hundred twenty two miles an hour to one hundred 478 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: and thirty miles an hour. Analysis of the vehicles recorded data, 479 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 1: coupled with surveillance video that captured her driving, also indicates 480 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 1: that the defendant had complete control over steering, maintaining the 481 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: tilt of the steering wheel to keep the car traveling 482 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:54,360 Speaker 1: directly toward the crowded intersection. This NASCAR worthy performance flies 483 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: in the face of the notion that she was unconscious 484 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: or incapacity. Wait, how do you get a car to 485 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: go to a hundred? She was what? It was a sedan? Right? 486 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 1: It was a Mercedes Mercedes Man one hundred and thirty. 487 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: I don't I can't believe it. The bread up. I 488 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 1: wonder if she thought she was Was she avoiding a 489 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 1: yellow lighter trying to go through or was this intentional? 490 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, And it says despite her insistence that 491 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 1: she could not remember the crash, the defendant told officers 492 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: the last thing she remembered before finding herself next to 493 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: her burning car was seeing a car going from left 494 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,719 Speaker 1: to right in front of her and then going straight. 495 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 1: A review of the surveillance video from the intersection reveals 496 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: cars traveled from left to right in front of the 497 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: defendant for no more than nine seconds as she was 498 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: driving straight toward the intersection prior to impact. Therefore, defendant's 499 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: inside into the circumstances of the crash is incredibly accurate 500 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 1: and consistent with the evidence of her driving conduct. So then, 501 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: so what they're saying is she didn't pass out, she 502 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: was fully aware. This was with their alleging she this 503 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 1: was intentional. But if she was, why doesn't she plead 504 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: to pari insanity. Well, it says here that there is 505 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: reference to prior diagnoses of bipolar disorder in both the 506 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: UCLA records and in prior incident reports obtained by the prosecution. However, 507 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 1: none of the history before the court indicates any instances 508 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: where the defendants suffered loss of consciousness, including seizures or 509 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 1: epileps right in the past. In fact, evidence of possible 510 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:26,479 Speaker 1: prior mental health episodes exhibits aggressive violent behavior wherein the 511 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: defendant hurt herself and others, but in no way refers 512 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: to loss of consciousness prior to or during the incidents. Now, 513 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 1: in an earlier La Times report, I'm saying it's the 514 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: investigator said she was involved in up to thirteen wrecks 515 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 1: before this one, right, and they lay out most of 516 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: those here. I know again, folks, this he just got 517 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: his hands on this in Real Times. Yeah, eleven pages here. 518 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: I'm trying to come through. And that's what happens when 519 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 1: I run into you in a hallway, I know, and 520 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: I'm like, come on in right now. Yeah. It identifies 521 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: how she was interviewed by HP investigators here on page eight, 522 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 1: the heading defendant's driving conduct exhibited conscious disregard for human life. Right, Yeah, 523 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 1: wasn't there something in another state you mentioned as you 524 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: were skimming through? Yeah there was. I'm always afraid you're 525 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 1: going to miss something like like, oh that was the 526 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: paragraph I should have had. But this is this is 527 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 1: what happens with breaking news. Yeah, it says, oh, yeah, 528 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: here we go. The defendant has a history of speeding 529 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 1: offenses in addition to a number of other minor traffic offenses. 530 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 1: New York records indicate January fifteenth, oh eight, the defendant 531 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 1: was stopped traveling ninety miles in a sixty five mile 532 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: an hour zone. The officer wrote the ticket for disobeying 533 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: a traffic control device, noting the defendant claimed she had 534 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 1: just received a ticket and could not get any more 535 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 1: tickets as she was paying for her own insurance. It 536 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: should be noted the defendant's New York records show her 537 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 1: most recent traffic ticket was an oh five, three weeks 538 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 1: after being cited for speeding nineteen to sixty five. On 539 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: February twenty eight, the defendant was again stopped and cided 540 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: for how does this woman still have a driver's license? 541 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 1: In any state, and these poor fee, these victims, they're survivors, 542 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: and all of this going eighty five in the sixty 543 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 1: five and four months after that, she caused rear end 544 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 1: collision in the city of Westchester. Then on September twenty second, 545 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: oh nine, she was again stopped inside of her going 546 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 1: eighty four and a sixty five gas and there was 547 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: no indication she was experiencing mental health episodes during any 548 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: of these incidents. So just to summarize, in this deadly 549 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 1: crash last month where five people died, she was there 550 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: now saying she was going one hundred and thirty miles 551 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: an hour on impact, that she had floored the gas 552 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 1: pedal the last five seconds, and that there's no evidence 553 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: based on a medical check, that she had a seizure 554 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 1: or passed out or last consciousness.
