One hundred year old oak tree. 69 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 2: John this was your fear? How many months ago was 70 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 2: that during the rainstorm?

It's it's still pointed at us. 73 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: Every day I deal with the the uh this this 74 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: looming my looming death? Is it like bent? So it 75 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: looks really it's top heavy, you know, you caletus trees 76 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,959 Speaker 1: get really heavy on the top. And although he's trimmed 77 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: it back, we've had we've had some negotiations and we 78 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: got back. 79 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 2: Some nobody was hurt. They're not even sure it actually 80 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 2: hit the governor's mansion. Was right there, near the side 81 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 2: of the mansion. But of course that's the big national 82 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 2: story today, the hurricane that has hit Florida, Idalia and 83 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 2: uh there supposedly a couple of people already reported to 84 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 2: have passed away. I think there were car crashes. 85 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: And it hit mostly hit the rural areas, not highly populated. Oh. 86 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: I saw some of the flooding photos. Wow, yeah, storm surge. 87 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: Those are those are small beach town scattered that area 88 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: matter too, just because only a thousand people lived there 89 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: a story. Yeah, but it just wouldn't rack up a 90 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: lot of statistics. 91 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 2: That's they don't think there's gonna be a lot of 92 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: damage from Uh. 93 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: There'll be damage, but there isn't that much to damage. 94 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: The towns are tiny. Most of that area is nature preserve. Yeah. 95 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 2: I heard one guy in the news say that this 96 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 2: part has never really seen a hurricane like this. This 97 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 2: part of Florida, because I guess what last year's was 98 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 2: for the north or south that it hit on the 99 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 2: Gulf Coast, hit. 100 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: Fort Myers, which is way south south. 101 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 2: Okay, because this guy was saying this is this never 102 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 2: happens here, This is devastating, and then there's another outrageous 103 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 2: headline that says it may never be the same in 104 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 2: some of these communities. 105 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, it could be uninhabitable for months. I stopped 106 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: worried about people hurricane stories thirty years ago. Oh really, no, 107 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: because it was there a day that it was a day, Yeah, 108 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: but I think it was actually I remember the hurricane. 109 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: I think it was Hurricane Andrew, which was nineteen ninety two. 110 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's a long time and that did that 111 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: did a tremendous amount of damage, And it occurred to 112 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: me it's like, well, after you see Hurricane Andrew, if 113 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 1: you're living on the coast, that's your call. But I'm 114 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 1: not grieving for you. You made a choice. You're playing 115 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,159 Speaker 1: You're playing the craps game here, right, You're gat just 116 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 1: like we do with the earthquakes. That's like what right? Right? 117 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 2: People in the South are probably saying the same thing 118 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 2: about cracky Californians. If there's a big earthquake, I'm not 119 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 2: feeling sorry for you. Show us to live there. 120 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: I think a few years after that there was a 121 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: massive flood of the Mississippi River. Yeah, so I remember 122 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 1: we did that on the Airly said, that's it. These 123 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: people have been hit several times and they keep moving 124 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: back there. Right, so you get one. If you don't 125 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: get the message after one, I don't know what to 126 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: tell you. But then you're always asking for money, and 127 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: you always want to rebuild in the exact spot. And 128 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 1: then a second one comes, like Fort Myers got flooded 129 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: again today, same place they got whacked last year. So 130 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: now I'm thinking, all right, people in Fort Myers, you've 131 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: been You've been warned by the gods twice. This is 132 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: not a place to build. This is not good for 133 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 1: people in the fire areas of California too. Yes, it does, 134 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,799 Speaker 1: all right. This is for all the people who rebuilt 135 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: in Paradise. You didn't get the message. You lost almost 136 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: one hundred people in down. Why would you build another one? 137 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 1: You think it's you think it's gonna burn differently next time. 138 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: You still only have two exits out of the city. 139 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: Now there's places people shouldn't live. Now you can if 140 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: you know the government. Oh, it'll probably worth the risk, 141 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: because if you get one storm like that every twenty 142 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: or thirty years, you know, because Florida gets hit with storms, 143 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: but they hit different parts of the state and sometimes 144 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 1: they veeer off. It's probably worth the risk, I would say. 145 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 2: But you're right, you should have the coverage whatever you 146 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 2: need to repair your life. 147 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: And insurance companies are cutting off coverage or making it 148 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: very expensive. They're doing it in California. I know firsthand 149 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 1: getting fire insurance like up at the Lake it was 150 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 1: really difficult this year, and I know Dan in Florida 151 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: it's difficult after the hurricanes. And what's so, what's the 152 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: insurance company saying it's such a great risk. We don't 153 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: want to be involved. We don't want to lose money, 154 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: all right. We already gave our billions to all the 155 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: people who built. Then it looks like we miscalculated. We 156 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: shouldn't have done that. 157 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 2: In fact, there's a story from Bloomberg News that Warren Buffett, 158 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 2: a pretty well known billionaire he's his Berkshire company, decided 159 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,679 Speaker 2: to invest in what they call the Florida reinsurance market 160 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: betting that it would be a mild storm season. 161 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: So I don't care people who try to guess the 162 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: weather just so I know. But I love the way 163 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: people in the financial world actually, you know, when it 164 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: comes to damage, they actually bet for or against something. Yeah, right, 165 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: because that's another that's another casino, it is, that's another 166 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: way to head yourself too, right, These are all casinos 167 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: because you can't you can't predict weather.

He's eighty one, 225 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 1: it's three years away. He doesn't know, he doesn't know, 226 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: he doesn't know if he's gonna make it through the question. 227 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: And it looked like he wasn't gonna. 228 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 2: All right, well, this is radio, so try to imagine 229 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 2: that old Mitch is freezing up and staring when this happens. 230 00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: Here's the audio. 231 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 4: It's one of my talks about running for re election 232 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 4: in twenty six six. 233 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: Oh show, there's this noise there?

They restarted the ans. Let's have 238 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: a question. Please to speak up. And she's one of 239 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: those idiot aides who tries to pretend that nothing is wrong. 240 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: First thing she does, did you hear the question? Nice cover? Yeah, 241 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: he heard the question. His brain is stuck and she. 242 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 2: Kind of goes behind him there. Do you think she 243 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 2: there's a switch on his back that she wire are. 244 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 2: They issued a statement. Leader McConnell felt momentarily lightheaded and 245 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 2: paused during. 246 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: His christ comments today. He's I think he's having small 247 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: mini strokes, strokes should think, Yeah, I think so, those 248 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 1: ischemic strokes. 249 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 2: He's going to consult a physician before his next event 250 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 2: as a prudential measure. 251 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: And I'm guessing it's affecting the part of his brain 252 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: where thoughts get transformed into speech. So he has a 253 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 1: thought and there's an automatic mechanism that's now shorting out 254 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: because you're getting the blood flow. 255 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 2: It was a tricky political question. I mean, are you 256 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 2: going to run again? At his age? 257 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: Everyone expects not. 258 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 2: I don't know whether he's trying to formulate, but he 259 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 2: had to expect that question was coming. 260 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 1: No, no, no, His face went blank. He still he's frozen. 261 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you look at the video, it's kind of 262 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 2: eeriel though. He is kind of a blank faced guy 263 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 2: to begin with. 264 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: What do you call him? No chin? He's got no lips. 265 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 1: How much of a chinty either? Yeah, I don't know. 266 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: He he must take it. 267 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 2: It looks like somebody in the home who's wandering in 268 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 2: the hallway, okay of the rest home. And it's just 269 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 2: confused about whether or not to walk forward sideways. 270 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: He's got the rest home. Look In fact, how about 271 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,559 Speaker 1: a debate between him, Feinstein, and Biden. I have three 272 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: of them on stage. Oh my god. 273 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:28,439 Speaker 2: Speaking of Biden, there is a book, The Last Politician, 274 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 2: a guy by the name of Franklin Foller is actually writing. 275 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 2: It's about Biden's first two years. It goes up until 276 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 2: the midterm elections. But some of the excerpts coming out 277 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,199 Speaker 2: today include the fact that Biden. 278 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: Is very tired. She didn't know. Wait, this has taken 279 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 1: a toll on him to be president. I'm going to 280 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,079 Speaker 1: the schedule. I'm gonna pay this guy twenty five dollars 281 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: to tell me Biden's tired. But there is that there 282 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 1: is maybe it's wishful thinking, but there is increasing speculation 283 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,559 Speaker 1: he is going to step aside. Yeah, I don't think 284 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 1: he's gonna before next I don't think. Well, I mean, 285 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 1: I think we covered this poll a little bit, or 286 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: maybe this was a different poll. But I was listening 287 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: yesterday to something and so seventy seven seventy seven percent 288 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: of the public does not want Biden to run again. Yes, 289 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: I think we did. Mention that number because he's not 290 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: functioning anymore. They politely say, because he's too old. It's 291 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: not the age's he's not functioning. And I think he 292 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: really knows it. 293 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 2: I think there is some that want to hang on 294 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 2: to the White House and think he's a better chance 295 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 2: than Kamala or Newsom or anybody else. It would step in, Okay, 296 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 2: So they're trying to keep him around. 297 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: The number of Democrats that want Kamalo to run for 298 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: office it's thirteen percent. She's done Tue, so they recognize 299 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: the disaster they need, they need. It will be Gavin's time. John, 300 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: It's going to be Gavin's time. And so I could 301 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: tell because another story will do later. Gavin is starting 302 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: to panic about San Francisco.

Yes, 305 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 2: John is right. He is starting to panic about this 306 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 2: being an issue in his campaign. 307 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 1: Because he knows he's next in line. He knows the 308 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: top guy's dying and the Kamala Harris can't she can't 309 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 1: even order dinner, right, So I mean she's done too. 310 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: So he's up next and he's got a disaster in 311 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: San Francisco.

There 336 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 4: is some damage there, but not the kind of storm 337 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 4: sewerage damage because it's quite far inland and now the 338 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 4: storm is dumping rain. It's bringing high winds to Georgia 339 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 4: and up into the Carolinas. 340 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 1: Now, and so there wasn't a lot of statistics I 341 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: notice about casualties and no and holmes being destroyed and 342 00:16:59,560 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: all that. 343 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 4: Well, we are going to have some damage, you know, 344 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 4: to the areas there to Perry place called Cedar Key, 345 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 4: which is a popular sort of fishing village that's just 346 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 4: off the coast. It was largely evacuated today, but it 347 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 4: did get some damage. But in terms of human casualties, 348 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 4: no reports of anything of a lot of numbers. ABC 349 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 4: has learned that one person was killed in a car accident. 350 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 4: Was driving at the height of the storm, lost control, 351 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 4: slammed into a tree, but beyond that, we haven't heard 352 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 4: of any you know, people drowning, that sort of thing. 353 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: And the flooding, how's that working. 354 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 4: The flooding that we had here in Tampa has subsided. 355 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 4: The waters out there have receded remarkably. There will be 356 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 4: some flooding up there close to the coastline, but again, 357 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 4: very few people actually live there. 358 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 2: All right, Jim, thank you very much for that up there. 359 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 2: You know you gotta go. We appreciate it. 360 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 4: Thanks guys. 361 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 2: Hi Jim Ryan, ABC News for KFI. He's posted in 362 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 2: Tampa reporting on the Hurricane Adalia, which has now moved 363 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 2: north into Georgia. The Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, of course 364 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 2: holding press conferences, not campaigning for president, not that that 365 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 2: was going very well, but he is warning looters. As 366 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 2: you know, this story goes back many years. Florida is 367 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,919 Speaker 2: one of those standard ground places, and he gave a 368 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 2: strong end today at a news conference that here it is. 369 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 2: I'd like to remind potential looters that people you never 370 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 2: know what you're walking into. 371 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: People have a right to defend their property, shoot on site. 372 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 1: That's a good way to end crime, he said. 373 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 2: Many people who are advocates and proponents of the Second 374 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 2: Amendment live in an area that includes Taylor. 375 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 1: County, which got hit pretty hard by the hurricane. You're 376 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: not gonna shaan any smash and grabbing going on. 377 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 2: He said that in other parts of the state you 378 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 2: will see people with yard signs that say you loot, 379 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 2: we shoot. 380 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: Good. Good, That's what we need some of that here. Yep, yep. 381 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: He went on to say, you never know what's behind 382 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 1: that door. 383 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 2: If you break into somebody's house and you're trying to loot, 384 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 2: there are people that are gonna be able to defend 385 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,120 Speaker 2: themselves and their families. 386 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 1: So I would not do that if I were you. 387 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: Also anything that, we're not going to prosecute him. But 388 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: we've spent a lot of time in Florida because my 389 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: wife's family lived there for a long time, and my 390 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: wife is compulsive about wanting to look at real estate properties. 391 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: I we'll just be walking down a block and she'll 392 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 1: see a house and she goes, I want to go look, 393 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: and she'll walk on their property. No, walk down, you know, 394 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: and look over the backyard fedor click click, or try 395 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: to look into the living room to see what it's like. 396 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: Oh no, it doesn't even have to be for sale. 397 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: It's just like, you can't do that. No, I'm not 398 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:47,199 Speaker 1: standing next to you. No, No, that's run. Yeah, this 399 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 1: is a stay in your ground state. You're on their ground. 400 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 2: The storm, as we mentioned, is down to category one. 401 00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 2: It's gonna break up over Georgia and the Carolina is 402 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 2: and fed. The North Carolina governor is asking people to 403 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 2: stock up, but the South Carolina governor apparently isn't too 404 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 2: worried that there'll be a lot of damage there. Of 405 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 2: course they've closed airports in ahead of this, but it's 406 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:18,360 Speaker 2: a category one storm done with northern Florida. Seventy five 407 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,680 Speaker 2: miles an hour wind is basically what we're talking about. 408 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 2: So it came on as a category three. That's what happens, 409 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 2: of course hits land. 410 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: No, there's their version of Hillary, lots of fear mongering, 411 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,919 Speaker 1: kind of a dug when it came to effect on 412 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: ordinary people's lives. 413 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 2: Right, the two big problems is the flooding and then 414 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 2: you don't have power. Right, there's three hundred thousand people 415 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 2: in Florida and Georgia without power and that is annoying. 416 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 2: My parents when they lived in Florida, when they were alive. 417 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 2: They went through one of those periods where it was 418 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 2: like more than a week without power. That's just horrendous, 419 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 2: especially when you need the air conditioning or the air 420 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 2: conditioning right, and everything in the freezer is a mess, 421 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 2: and the food starts distinct pretty quickly, and you do 422 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 2: a lot of bar equeuing outside. 423 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 1: But it's really horrendous. You live like they did, you know, 424 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: seventy years ago. 425 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw one story this morning, and I guess 426 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 2: it didn't pan out. There was one model, you know, 427 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 2: the hurricane modeling, that said it might it could turn 428 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 2: around it hit Florida again, that it was possible that 429 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 2: it could make a turn and come back and hit 430 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 2: the state again. But now as we see its path, 431 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 2: it isn't going to be happening that way. And they 432 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 2: called it a looping storm possibility. And as John knows, 433 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 2: because he's the weather geek with the with the with 434 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 2: the computer modeling, there's like one hundreds of them or 435 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 2: thousands of them for any particular store. 436 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, they call it spaghetti modeling because when you look 437 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: at the screen, they'll have ten or fifteen different computer 438 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 1: stripes on the screen. Each one has their own path. 439 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: It's displayed on the screen. Each one is a different color, 440 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: and this one it was it was quite uniform. I 441 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: mean and all the all the all the stripes were 442 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 1: on top of each other. Oh is that right? Yeah? Most, 443 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 1: but there was one, the one you were talking about, 444 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: which had it going off, making a hard right across 445 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 1: Florida out to the ocean, and then looping back for 446 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: another run. Has that happened before with a big storm? 447 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 1: You know? 448 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 2: I I know some storms stall right Famously, Sandy years 449 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 2: ago stalled over the New York area, and that's horrendous. 450 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: I mean, not off the top of my head. I 451 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: don't remember that happening. I mean, I'm sure it has. 452 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 1: I'm back for more. Yeah, I mean it's this is 453 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 1: all controlled by upper level windflows, right, so it it 454 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 1: because this thing was stalled next to Cuba for a 455 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 1: couple of days because there was this this U the 456 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: high precious system. 457 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 2: I always wondering about those island nations there in the 458 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 2: Atlantic of the Caribbean, that how do they sustain some 459 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 2: of these storms? They look so tiny on maps that 460 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 2: you figure out they's going to be a storm event. 461 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 2: She just says, no, island's gone. Yeah, it's the the 462 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 2: island sinks under the ocean.

Yeah. 505 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 2: I don't think a lot of people do that, but 506 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 2: there's such a thing they are in Florida, So I 507 00:24:57,840 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 2: ran into. 508 00:24:58,280 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 1: This column to guess. 509 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,679 Speaker 2: Column us at the Elsagundo Times a woman that originally 510 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 2: lived in India, where she'd like to tell you that 511 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 2: in Deli, India. 512 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 1: I don't know why anybody would want to live here. 513 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: She talks about when it rained, puddles would give rise 514 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,919 Speaker 1: to new mosquito born diseases. Winter smog meant that if 515 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: I was poisoning my lungs if I took a walk, 516 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 1: And of course it's not uncommon during the summer to 517 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 1: have one hundred and ten degree heat. So she since 518 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: moved to California. Moving to California, to Northern California in 519 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one helped me break out of that shell 520 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: because I was finally in an environment that welcomed outdoor exploration. 521 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: But you might have guessed it, especially by the lead 522 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: and I gave to this story. She's wondering and worrying 523 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 1: that her future outside in California will be limited because 524 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: of climate change. She may not be able to continue 525 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 1: running second this woman, and I don't actually she's legally 526 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 1: not a woman yet, oh, I guess she is. She's 527 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,880 Speaker 1: twenty years old. She's twenty years she started eighteen years, right, 528 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,880 Speaker 1: eighteen years, and she's been here two years. She's a 529 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 1: sophomore at Stanford and an inn turn with the editorial pages. 530 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 2: The posts is the assignment she got there. Right about now, 531 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 2: climate Chang's going to affect her. 532 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: Running with her two years in California and twenty years 533 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 1: on the planet, she has all this wisdom about how 534 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:19,200 Speaker 1: the climate has changed for the worst here in California. Yeah, 535 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,719 Speaker 1: which I found absurd. I started reading this and laughing out, 536 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 1: laughing out loud. Northern California started the year with uncharacteristically 537 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 1: heavy rain and flooding, which meant that for months on end, 538 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: I could not enjoy the outdoors. California frequently gets rain. 539 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 1: I don't know how to break this tour, but there's 540 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:41,159 Speaker 1: a lot of rainy winters, especially up north. San Francisco 541 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 1: could be socked in with rain for weeks at a time. 542 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 1: That could happen. Yes, there were typical winters. Yes, and 543 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: in southern California, I think's run hot and cold. You 544 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: get these very wet winters and then you get a 545 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,119 Speaker 1: few years of drought and it just goes on and 546 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: on and on like that. 547 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,640 Speaker 2: And then she jumps to the record breaking heat wave 548 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 2: this summer, unbearable to me to run long distance, worried 549 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 2: I would lose the nature environment where I felt like 550 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 2: I belong. California is barreling towards a future where the 551 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:11,160 Speaker 2: outdoors might become inhospitable for children to play because of Well, 552 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 2: listen to this gathering wildfire, smoke, heat waves, storms and 553 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 2: flooding all at once. 554 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 1: You're kidding against the storms and flooding eliminate the risk 555 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 1: of the wildfires. You see, Yeah, there is a balance 556 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 1: if you do have wildfires. I means you didn't have 557 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 1: storms in flooding. But she's worried about everything all at once, 558 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 1: because you know, she has spent twenty years on the 559 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 1: planet and two years in California, so she knows all 560 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 1: the rhythms of I mean, we've been around the planet's 561 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 1: been around four and a half billion years. But she 562 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 1: figured out in two years that everything in California is ubnormal. 563 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:51,400 Speaker 2: Boyd is at least seven park visitors in the US 564 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 2: Southwest too in Death Valley are likely to have died 565 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,239 Speaker 2: due to extreme heat exposure. Well, we know who one 566 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 2: of those guys was. Remember the seventy one year old 567 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 2: man I just wanted to go and hike in one 568 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty degree heat because he wanted. 569 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: To know what it was like. 570 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 2: He actually talked to an Elsi gon To Times reporter 571 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 2: before he took the hike. Right now, it's sad that 572 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 2: he passed away, but honestly he knew the risk. 573 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 1: You go, you go hiking one hundred and twenty degrees heat, 574 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,679 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty degree heat, Yeah, you might die. 575 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 1: Year old. Don't if you don't know that up front. Again, 576 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 1: this is Darwinism. This is not a tragedy. It's stupid. 577 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,399 Speaker 1: If you knew anybody, especially if they're seventy one, and 578 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 1: they say, you know what, it's one hundred and twenty 579 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: in Death Valley. I'm going for a hike today. Maybe 580 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: I'll do a run. The first response would be, are 581 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: you crazy? You're gonna die? But she thinks it's some 582 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: sort of tragedy climate tragedy. No, it's not. 583 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 2: She says that there's a website that says marathoners are 584 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 2: now slower because of the warming climate. They're taking on average, 585 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 2: one minute and twenty five seconds longer to finish a 586 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 2: race for every additional degree fahrenheit. 587 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: Uh huh do you know? And she lies. She says 588 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 1: heat is the leading weather related killer. Oh you know 589 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 1: the answer to that, Well, there was actually a pretty 590 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 1: good clip we ought to get. How'd we decide to 591 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 1: pronounce his name? It's like it's like cake the the 592 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: ram Alamaswami, that guy. So he went on uh amist NBC. Yeah, 593 00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: and he said, because because one of those anchors was 594 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: was prattling about climate change. He says, the cold kills 595 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: eight times as many people as the heat. Now you're Lomborg, 596 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 1: who's that climate expert from the Copenhagen Yeah, yeah, he 597 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 1: says the cold weather kills forty times more than he 598 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: And I don't know. Maybe these are the times count 599 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: constantly run stories that heats the biggest killing. It isn't. 600 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 1: And this lady here, the writer Daya sub Harwall, You're 601 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 1: you're printing a falsehood. She needs to talk to they think, right, 602 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 1: cold weather, Well, you know, I looked it up and 603 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: there's varying calculations out there. It depends on, you know, 604 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 1: if you're going to use this country or US and 605 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 1: Canada or the world or whatever. But universally, cold weather 606 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 1: kills a lot more people than hot weather. So what 607 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 1: she's writing and what the editors allowed to be published 608 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: is just flat out wrong. I won't accuse her of 609 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: lying because she's only been around twenty years. She has 610 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 1: no any better. She probably gets taught this at Stanford 611 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: and her stupid high school. But trust me, cold weather 612 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 1: is far more deadly. If we had some global warming, 613 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: it actually would lessen weather related deaths. 614 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 2: All right, When we come back, Gavin Newsom in his 615 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 2: preparation to run for president next year twenty twenty eight, 616 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 2: it's got to take care of another problem, his time 617 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 2: as mayor of San Francisco and the fact that that 618 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 2: city is under the microscope because of all of its 619 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 2: homelessness problems. Well you'll see he's involved in a court 620 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 2: case making some comments.
