1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:01,960 Speaker 1: I am six forty. 2 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,240 Speaker 2: You're listening to the John and Ken Show on demand 3 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:05,520 Speaker 2: on the iHeartRadio app. 4 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,640 Speaker 3: I'm back today and I'll tell you what took me 5 00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 3: away yesterday coming up later on the hour. But it 6 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,560 Speaker 3: was the dreaded jury duty and thank god, it didn't 7 00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:17,280 Speaker 3: even last a day. 8 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: In fact, didn't even last but a few hours. Good news. 9 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 3: And he actually had a better organized than I thought 10 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 3: they would. But we'll get to that a bit later on. 11 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 3: Of course, the big news this afternoon, which broke with 12 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 3: the twelve o'clock news conference from Coastguard officials, is that 13 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 3: the story is well now pretty much over concerning me 14 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 3: missing submersible. This is a company called ocean Gate which 15 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,879 Speaker 3: sends these miniatures submarine type vessels down to look at 16 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 3: things underwater. In this case, it was the wreckage of 17 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 3: the Titanic, and this submersible was called the titan with 18 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 3: five people on board. The story that broke this morning 19 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 3: was that they found some debris and it was just 20 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 3: a matter of hours before they were able to confirm 21 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 3: that that debris, of course came from the submersible which 22 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 3: probably imploded how long after it went down, and that 23 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 3: was Sunday by the way, in case you're interested, Sunday 24 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,400 Speaker 3: is when they started to dissent to the wreck early 25 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 3: Sunday morning. Let's bring on Alex Stone ABC News for KFI, 26 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,559 Speaker 3: who's covered the story and of course monitored the press 27 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 3: conference from just over an hour ago. 28 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,039 Speaker 2: Alex Eyther Kennon, Yeah, I mean, this was the most 29 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 2: likely scenario all throughout this that, Yeah, they had to 30 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 2: work as if what if they were alive and living 31 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 2: on the bottom of the ocean for four or five days, 32 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 2: what if they came back up and they were bobbing 33 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 2: around and just where we're out of communication. There were 34 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 2: a lot of what ifs, and a lot of them 35 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 2: were what if this happened, and this happened, and this 36 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 2: happened that allowed them to be in this spot. Whereas 37 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 2: the most likely scenario from the beginning was they imploded 38 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 2: that the pressure of the ocean was too much and 39 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 2: there was a weakness in the cap. And then again, 40 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 2: like we've been describing, and not to get too graphic, 41 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 2: but like an empty soda can squishing in that you 42 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 2: have in your hand and you squish it in that 43 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 2: you would have been very quick and that's what they 44 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 2: believe happened likely on Sunday. They've had a lot of 45 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 2: sonar buoys in the water. They haven't heard any implosion, 46 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 2: so not like they survived and they were on the 47 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,679 Speaker 2: bottom and then eventually. 48 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: It gave way. 49 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 2: They think they were looking at Titanic or close to it, 50 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,119 Speaker 2: and then in that moment on Sunday that it gave way. 51 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 4: But the update a few minutes ago they said this, the. 52 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 5: Debris is consistent with a catastrophic loss of the pressure chamber. 53 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:45,359 Speaker 5: Upon this determination, we immediately notified the families. 54 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,239 Speaker 4: That's a rear Admiral John Mauger there. 55 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,359 Speaker 2: So they found it thirteen thousand feet down, just a 56 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 2: little ways away from Titanic itself. They believed that it 57 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 2: was probably very quick the way that it went, that 58 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 2: it gave way, and they may never recover any of 59 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 2: the bodies. 60 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: Yea. 61 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 5: ROVs will remain on scene and continue to gather information. Again, 62 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 5: our most heartfelt condolences go out to the loved ones 63 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 5: of the crew. 64 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 2: And they say that teams are going to begin wrapping 65 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 2: up now, they're going to begin heading home and the 66 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 2: next twenty four hours they're going to keep rovers in 67 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 2: the water just to map out the debris field. If 68 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 2: they find any remains then they would handle that then. 69 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 2: But they're going to begin going home. And one more 70 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 2: for you. Paul Hankin, an underwater expert salvage expert working 71 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 2: with the rovers today, explained what they found. The initial 72 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 2: thing we found was a nose cone which was outside 73 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 2: of the pressure hull. 74 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 6: We then found a large debris field. 75 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: At Ocean Gave that company that you were talking about, 76 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 2: Ken they put out a statement saying they now believe 77 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 2: all five on board are gone. Their website was immediately 78 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 2: taken down or went offline. That's not been a today, 79 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 2: so it is. It's a sad ending. But from the start, 80 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 2: the one that looked like probably the most likely, and now. 81 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 3: They know they're all gone, so it's likely they imploded 82 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 3: not long after they lost contact. 83 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: Is that? 84 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, that it was pretty soon thereafter. 85 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 2: And now remember, as we've been talking about in recent days, 86 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 2: it was common for them to lose contact. That was 87 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 2: not unusual that people who had been on these dives 88 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 2: down to the Titanic and even other places where they 89 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 2: would go that typically they would lose contact. So there 90 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 2: was this eight hour window from when they lost contact 91 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 2: to when they reported them gone, thinking that they were 92 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 2: going to come back, that they always do that. Typically 93 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 2: they would lose contact for a while and then come 94 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 2: back into comms as they were coming back up and 95 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 2: everything was fine, But then they. 96 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 4: Realized it wasn't. 97 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 2: But whether they had notified the Coastguard right away or 98 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 2: eight hours yet probably didn't matter if it was immediate. 99 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 3: Now, what about the investigation into this in the future 100 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 3: sure of this company. 101 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, we don't know. 102 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 2: The coast Guard to day said they'll deal with that, 103 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 2: that they will investigate what went on here. 104 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 4: There have been a lot of claims made. 105 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 2: There was one today by a guy who helped make 106 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 2: this thing and talked about that they allegedly, according to him, 107 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 2: did things on the cheap and then they're the ex employees. 108 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 2: One of them who sued saying that that when he 109 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 2: brought up issues with the carbon fiber that it could 110 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 2: rip a lot like an airplane wre youpressurized and depressurized 111 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 2: so many times that he was worried about that it 112 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 2: would go undetected and ripped between the layers of titanium. 113 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 2: But then he was fired for bringing that up. They 114 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 2: settled out of court. Boeing and University of Washington and NASA, 115 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: they've been separating themselves saying that they didn't play a role, 116 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 2: and in this NASA sing they gave a little bit 117 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 2: of help on design early on, but that they didn't 118 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 2: build it, they didn't test it. Boeing saying it had 119 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,799 Speaker 2: nothing to do with this capsule. University of Washington, which 120 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,040 Speaker 2: they had been quoted as from the company, is having 121 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 2: a role in this. 122 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 4: They say they didn't either. So can the companies survive? 123 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 4: Who knows. But as of today, no website, and they. 124 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 2: Know that the five aren't coming back, so we don't 125 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 2: know what's going to go on with them. 126 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, if indeed it did implode, you wonder 127 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 3: about the maintenance records and exactly what they do to 128 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 3: check these submersibles after they send them down each time. 129 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 3: What people probably don't realize, Alex, and I know you 130 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 3: do is going to this kind of depth in the ocean. 131 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 3: And I heard the Coastguard official say it every time 132 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 3: he's asked a question. This is incredibly complex and this 133 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 3: is of course very dangerous thing to do. 134 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 2: It is dark, it is murky down there, it is 135 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 2: cold down there. Communications don't work without a tether going 136 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:51,039 Speaker 2: all the way down there. The pressure is absolutely incredible 137 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 2: that even titanium and carbon fiber was not enough. And 138 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 2: you know quite often when sea explorers will go down 139 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: that they're in a capsule that may be used once 140 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 2: or a couple of times. They were using this like 141 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 2: a what was a commercial venture in the sense of, 142 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:09,359 Speaker 2: you know, pay money and you could go down and 143 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 2: see Titanic. They had done I think twenty five somewhere 144 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 2: around twenty five of the trips down there that it 145 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 2: was being used over and over again. So if what 146 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 2: the security concern of that ex employee was of pressurizing, depressurizing, pressurizing, depressurizing, 147 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 2: filling it up like a balloon and then whoops, you 148 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 2: get a rip in the carbon fiber, that's something they're 149 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 2: going to have to figure out. But is it safe 150 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 2: to be doing it like this? I mean, this may 151 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 2: be proof. 152 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 3: No, this was quite a rescue. It was at least 153 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 3: three countries. I saw Canada, France, and the US all 154 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 3: involved in this. 155 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, the UK as well. A lot of money. 156 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 2: We don't know, you know, technically who pays for it, 157 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 2: although the individual countries will handle it. But there were 158 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 2: a lot of resources that they came into. 159 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: It all right, Alex, thank you very much for that report. 160 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 4: You got it. Welcome back from Jerry Duty. 161 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 3: Alex Stone, ABC News for KFI cover. Of course, since 162 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 3: this unfolded Sundays when we first got word that this 163 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 3: submersible was missing. After contact with the ship that was 164 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 3: monitoring it ceased and they apparently would text each other, 165 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 3: which is kind of bizarre, but and as everyone said 166 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 3: the first day or so, that's not unusual. Sometimes they 167 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 3: do lose contact for hours, which led everyone to believe 168 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 3: that they could be alive. And then it was this 169 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 3: countdown as to how much oxygen they had left. And 170 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 3: then the drama was even if they popped to the surface, 171 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,079 Speaker 3: they have to be pulled out of there because it 172 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 3: bolted from the outside. But it looks like and I 173 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 3: read this the first day or so from one of 174 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 3: the experts who said, I have a feeling that the 175 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 3: whole thing imploded and there may be no hope. So 176 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 3: it was British billionaire Hamish Harding, French Titanic expert Paul 177 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 3: Henri Nargalay, the Ocean Gates CEO stocked in Rush, and 178 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 3: then the Pakistani businessman. His name is Shazada, the Wood 179 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 3: and his nineteen year old son Sulan are the five 180 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 3: that apparently perished on the submersible.

Although 197 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 3: you know, I'm sure there are people asking the question, 198 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 3: why this much attention on this story? 199 00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: Wealthy people who took a. 200 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 3: Huge risk in a vessel like this to go two 201 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 3: and a half miles down into the Atlantic to look 202 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 3: at the Titanic wreckage. 203 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: But you know, it's still a loss of life. 204 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 3: I was reminded of those stories when we get the 205 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 3: missing hiker without the phone and and he gets lost, 206 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 3: or he does have a phone, he just calls and 207 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 3: tries to get rescued, and they send out all sorts 208 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 3: of equipment and aircraft to try to save that person. 209 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 3: A couple of notes from this. The wife of the 210 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 3: Ocean Gate ceo. His name is Stockton Rush. Her name 211 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 3: is Wendy Rush. He of course was piloting the suburble 212 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 3: that disappeared when they died for the wreckage. She's actually 213 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 3: a descendant of two first class passengers who died when 214 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 3: the Titanic sunk in the year nineteen twelve. She's the 215 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 3: great great granddaughter of a retailing magnate by the name 216 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 3: of Isidor Strauss. He was on the Titanic with his 217 00:10:56,200 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 3: wife Ida for this voyage, and he was co owner 218 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 3: of Macy's department store. And if you did see the 219 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 3: nineteen ninety seven film Titanic by James Cameron, well there 220 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 3: was a depiction of them embracing in bed as the 221 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 3: waters rose around their cabin, although that may be fiction. 222 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 3: Others say it looks like they were standing arm in 223 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 3: arm on the Titanic's deck as the ship went down, 224 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 3: but I guess Cameron decided it would be more romantic 225 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 3: to put them in bed. He the husband, refused a 226 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 3: place on the lifeboat, is also the story we get 227 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 3: from survivors, and decided she wouldn't go because he wouldn't go, 228 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 3: So they stayed together and went down on the Titanic. 229 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 3: And of course, as was depicted in the film, there 230 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 3: was a lot of wealthy people on that ship for 231 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 3: that voyage across the Atlantic. Now, this of course brings 232 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 3: up the question, and it was a pretty good story 233 00:11:55,800 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 3: this Afternoon and the Daily Mail about how wealthy people, 234 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 3: because most of their fortunes are safe and they're only 235 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 3: getting richer, are seeking bigger and bigger thrills. Their lives, 236 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 3: according to a top psychologist, are probably fairly mundane, so 237 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 3: they use some of their wealth to seek out excitement. 238 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 3: And as we talked about this the other day, Debor Mark, 239 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 3: I would not go down in a twenty two foot 240 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 3: submersible two and a half miles to look at the 241 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 3: wreckage of anything no one, the most famous ship that 242 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 3: ever sunk. 243 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,719 Speaker 8: I'd get my thrills elsewhere for. 244 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 3: Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars is what it costs 245 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 3: to do that. And then, of course the other one 246 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 3: is the ones that go into space. As you know, 247 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 3: you can spend a lot of money. But if you 248 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 3: and eventually they're gonna have space tourism, you're not gonna 249 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 3: do that either. 250 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 8: All oh god, no, you know what, I want to 251 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 8: go on an African safari. I'll spend a lot of 252 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 8: money on that when I can afford it, not not 253 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 8: any of these because those are expensive African. 254 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: They are, but they make those pretty safe. 255 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I know, but I'm saying that I would 256 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 8: spend money on something like that to be kind of 257 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 8: that's my idea of wild and crazy now, not these 258 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 8: daredevil type of trips. 259 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 3: Right, you'd sit there the whole night in the tent 260 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 3: worry that the lion's gonna come. 261 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 4: All right, That's what I'm saying. 262 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 8: So that's my level of excitement and danger. 263 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: Yeah. 264 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 3: These psychologists said there's a bunch of hormones to get 265 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 3: released from people, the endorphins and everything, and everybody who 266 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 3: feels bored sometimes feels the need to take these kinds 267 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 3: of risks. 268 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,439 Speaker 1: In the story is also depicted people who. 269 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 3: Skydive over Mount Everest, hurtling to Earth at astronomical speed. 270 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 3: They're equipped with specialized military and parachute equipment, including an 271 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 3: oxygen mask to keep them alive during that high altitude adventure. 272 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 3: Of course, it points out the British multi millionaire Richard Branson, who, 273 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 3: of course, would you ever get in. 274 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 1: A hot air balloon? No? No, no, I might, really, 275 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: I might. I might that. Yeah. The only thing I 276 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 1: ever did that mildly risky parasailing. 277 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I did that. 278 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 8: That was probably the most terrifying thing I have ever done. 279 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,959 Speaker 6: I was, oh my god, I. 280 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 3: Did it nervous at first, but once I was up there, 281 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 3: I really got into it. Knowing I didn't like was 282 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 3: the landing. I had to land on a boat, which 283 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 3: was a little tricky. 284 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, I did too. 285 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, and they want you to try to land not 286 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 3: on your butt, but try to land to just quick standing, 287 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 3: which I managed to do. I was very impressive, but 288 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 3: that did make me nervous for a while. This was 289 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 3: in Florida, looking at the world from that high up. 290 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 3: I had never done that before. 291 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 8: I've also repelled off of a waterfall in Costa Rica, 292 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 8: but parasailing was a little scarier. 293 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 4: I think I was going to ask if you guys 294 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 4: would do ziplining or something. Oh, yeah, I've done ziplining. 295 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 3: I did do ziplining in Canada, in fact, up in 296 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 3: the Canadian Rockies, not far from where they had the 297 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 3: Olympics years ago in Calgary Nice. It was after the Olympics, 298 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 3: it was during the summer, and I did ziplining again. 299 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 3: The only thing that bothered me about ziplining is actually 300 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 3: stepping off the platform and going. Once you get going, 301 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 3: there's nothing frightening about it, but you look down and 302 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 3: you're like, am I really going to do this? And 303 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 3: you just don't feel like there's anything that's going to 304 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 3: hold you up, and you're just looking at that contraption 305 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 3: you get yourself into and you get really nervous about that. 306 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 3: But that's probably the only things I have done that 307 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 3: would Even people have asked me if I would ever 308 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 3: do skydiving. 309 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 4: I was going to just ask you that, would you I. 310 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 1: Have friends that did bungee jump in. 311 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 6: Oh god, No, I wouldn't do that either. 312 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 3: No, those aren't as expensive as what these billionaires are into. 313 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 3: In fact, I got a press release today that America's 314 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 3: ten richest people listen to this are worth more than 315 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 3: one hundred and six poorest countries of the world combined. 316 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 3: There's a stat for you. Who do you think is 317 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 3: number one? 318 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: Debor Mark. 319 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 3: Just ahead of him is Elon Yeah, Elon Musk. They 320 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 3: say that as of June he is one of the 321 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 3: He is, of course the top wealthiest person in the 322 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 3: United States one hundred and eighty billion. 323 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: He's supposedly worth. 324 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 3: Then Bezos with a net worth of one hundred and 325 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 3: fourteen billion, and you can see these two in competition 326 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 3: to go into space. That's the exciting thing right now, 327 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 3: more than I think that would lead the way, more 328 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 3: than seeing the wreckage of the Titanic. The idea of 329 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 3: going to another planet or going far into space, I 330 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 3: think holds the most appeal for the wealthiest people. After 331 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 3: that is Larry Ellison of Oracle with one hundred and 332 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 3: seven billion, and then Warren Buffett and Bill Gates or 333 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 3: in fourth and fifth place. 334 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 1: But I didn't know Michael Bloomberg. 335 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 3: He just spends his money trying to get us to 336 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 3: stop eating fatty foods and smoking and all the rest 337 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 3: of that.

He's 362 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 3: worried about these large gangs that organize shoplifting ventures and 363 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:05,640 Speaker 3: make a lot of money. 364 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: Off of it. 365 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 3: Didn't seem to care too much about the ordinary shoplifting 366 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 3: that's going on. But we're going to talk about this 367 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,640 Speaker 3: with a state assemblyman who thinks it all comes back 368 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 3: to Prop. 369 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 1: Forty seven. 370 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 3: Of course, he's a Republican and doesn't get much response 371 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 3: from the supermajority of Democrats and Sacramento, but we'll take 372 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 3: a shot at it. Coming up after two o'clock on 373 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 3: the John and Ken Show, Well, the drama continues with 374 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 3: Los Angeles City Council Member Current Price. Will he be 375 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,959 Speaker 3: suspended because he's been charged with corruption? And I want 376 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 3: to point out again these charges come from the LA 377 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 3: County District Attorney George Gascone. Hey, it's not this federal 378 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:42,919 Speaker 3: case again where they can cite this amorphous racism and 379 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 3: systematic it's from gascon who's coming after a black politician 380 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 3: in the city of La A man has been in 381 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 3: politics a long time and it is very powerful. He 382 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 3: was President pro tem of the city council. 383 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 1: Well, the word we're. 384 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 3: Here, it is they're going to go there. He slowly 385 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 3: towards the idea of suspending current price. Let's bring on 386 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 3: Blake trolley. KAFI News has been following this story with 387 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 3: the latest honest. 388 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 9: Yeah, Ken very slowly is correct. Tomorrow, a city council 389 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 9: committee is expected to take a vote on whether or 390 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 9: not to even send this to the full city council 391 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 9: for its vote. This is a three person city council committee. 392 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 9: On it is Council President Pauker Corey, and he introduced 393 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 9: the motion to have the vote to suspend price on it, 394 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 9: as well as Councilman Marquis Harris Stas. And he's questioned 395 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 9: the charges saying, you know, he thought these might warn 396 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 9: an ethics violation, but maybe not a felony. And the 397 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 9: third member of this is Councilman Hugo Soto Martinez. So 398 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,159 Speaker 9: it's going to be really interesting to see what this 399 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,239 Speaker 9: committee decides tomorrow. Does this committee decide to send this 400 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:50,160 Speaker 9: to the full floor or does this committee decide to 401 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 9: squash this and not allow the whole City Council to 402 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 9: vote on it. I've asked other City Council teams if 403 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 9: the committee doesn't send this to the floor, what the 404 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 9: options would be. I'm still waiting to hear back, but 405 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 9: it doesn't sound like a whole lot. So now begs 406 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 9: the question is Councilman Price going to even face a 407 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 9: full City council suspension vote by the full City Council today? Again, 408 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 9: this committee tomorrow deciding on this. Councilman Price yesterday sent 409 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 9: a letter to the City Council or released a statement 410 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 9: asking that he's not suspended. He's calling the charges against 411 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 9: him unwarranted. He's saying that the attacks on his wife's 412 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 9: reputation are unfair. Again, this all over a paid a 413 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 9: play scheme, and he's saying that he thinks the court 414 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 9: is going to find that these charges are no good. 415 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 9: So he's asking the City Council to allow him to 416 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 9: stay on part of this as well as he's arguing 417 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 9: that it will affect people negatively in his district if 418 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 9: he's removed today, a large group of people from Councilman 419 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 9: Price's district, a large group of supporters, people of that 420 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 9: nature came out to support Price, came out to urge 421 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 9: city leaders tomorrow to not send. 422 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,159 Speaker 6: This to the full council for a vote. 423 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 9: And what we're seeing here, too, Ken, is the same 424 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 9: thing I've been talking about, hesitation around this. We said 425 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 9: this was likely going to be a battle. I think 426 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 9: we're going to head into that. Today. I was at 427 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 9: an event where Karen Bass was Mayor Bass and we'll 428 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 9: go to buy one. Even she's being hesitant when question 429 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 9: if she supports his removal. 430 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 4: You know, let me just. 431 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 10: Say that I support the Council's deliberative process, and the 432 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 10: council is having a meeting tomorrow in which to decide that. 433 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 10: And I think that we need to learn some lessons 434 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 10: for how these situations were handled in the past, where 435 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,719 Speaker 10: action was taken very quickly and then it led to 436 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 10: many unintended consequences. So, standing here next to the President 437 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,639 Speaker 10: of the City Council, who I have complete confidence in, 438 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 10: I'm going to see and follow the council's actions. 439 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 1: Do you want to actually a careful answer? 440 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 9: And I tried to follow that up with the same 441 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 9: question to see if you ask twice. Because another reporter 442 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 9: had asked if she had changed her answer and he didn't. 443 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 9: Council President Grecory and Toda had a chance to catch 444 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 9: up with him, and he didn't change his stance. He 445 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 9: says he wants to hear argument before making any decisions 446 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 9: on this. And you know, my interpretation of a lot 447 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 9: of this is, you know, he's council president, he's in 448 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 9: touch with all of these city council members. He fills 449 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 9: out the room and I think he's anticipating some sort 450 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 9: of battle, so he doesn't want to get into the 451 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 9: middle of it just yet. But he did express some 452 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 9: frustrations with Da Gascon As you know, Ken Gascone, this 453 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 9: is a huge story to not hold a press conference on. 454 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,439 Speaker 9: I mean, that's undeniable. 455 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: It's true, right, he should take questions. 456 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 9: He should take questions, he should paint a clearer picture. 457 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 9: I believe that as a reporter, and that's something that's 458 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 9: frustrating city council members as well. If we go to 459 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:48,199 Speaker 9: buy three, here's Krekory and expressing that he's upset with 460 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 9: the way this has all been ruled out. 461 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 11: We have seen zero evidence in support of these charges, 462 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 11: Unlike in past situations where there's been a vast amount 463 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 11: of evidence that was made public before the charges were 464 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:01,159 Speaker 11: even filed. 465 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 6: We don't on that. 466 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 9: Do you wish that the DA had held a press conference, 467 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 9: had made himself more available. 468 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 11: I do. I would like to know much more about 469 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 11: what's behind all of this. Frankly, I'm the president of 470 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 11: the city Council. I wasn't even given a heads up. 471 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 11: So if there were some risk by mister Price's continuing 472 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 11: to be an active member of the council, if that 473 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 11: were true, I would think that the district Attorney would 474 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 11: have given the President of the council a heads up 475 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 11: so I could take some steps. 476 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 6: He reached out to you at all, his gasco and 477 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 6: reached out to you at all. 478 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 11: Zero no contact whatsoever. 479 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 3: Well, by the way, we're going to talk about that 480 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 3: stuge in about an hour with Daniel Gusher the GUS report. 481 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: That's Paul Corecoryan acting so shocked over all this. 482 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 3: The only thing I see Blake is Tiffany Black now 483 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 3: the director of Gascalon's Bureau of Communications, and she's one 484 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 3: of these people he brought in from like a public 485 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 3: defender position activist who just said, well, if it was 486 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 3: a violation of ethics, she would have sent it to 487 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 3: the Fair Political Practice Commission, but we decided a crime 488 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 3: had been committed. 489 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 9: So there she's disputing what some people are asking is 490 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 9: did this rise to the level of a felony? But again, Ken, 491 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 9: I agree with Grecoryan on this one, just as a reporter. 492 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 9: Reporters want to know more about this. This is a 493 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 9: major story. To just release a press release and say okay, 494 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 9: you know and move on from I think this is 495 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,439 Speaker 9: something we all want a clear picture on. 496 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 3: But the evidence, as they're citing, he voted right for 497 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 3: these deals that involved his wife's consultancy, So that's on 498 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 3: the record. 499 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 1: That's not hard to dig up and prove that's true. 500 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 3: I mean the evidence, and then the evidence the medical 501 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 3: benefits that this woman that may not have been his 502 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,120 Speaker 3: wife at the time got, that's also pretty easy to 503 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 3: look up and prove. 504 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 6: So that's true. I mean a voting record. 505 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 9: A voting record is a voting record, and money given 506 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 9: to a firm is money given to a firm. So 507 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 9: when you're able to say, well, money was given to 508 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 9: his wife's consulting firm. 509 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,919 Speaker 6: He voted this way that way. Yeah, that is pretty straightforward. 510 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 9: But I still think it would have helped at least 511 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 9: for Gascon's, you know point, especially as people are starting 512 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 9: to question these charges. It would allow Gascon to have 513 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,360 Speaker 9: a stronger position on bringing on these criminal charges. 514 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. 515 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,360 Speaker 3: And I heard that the city controller, Kenneth Maheas says 516 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 3: if he is suspended, they're not going to pay him. 517 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 9: You know, that was interesting, Ken, that seemed like I 518 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 9: was about to touch on that. That seemed like a 519 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,400 Speaker 9: battle that the city wasn't going to want to initially 520 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 9: take when we first heard about this. But as people 521 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 9: pointed to, Maha actually backed and was not for the 522 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 9: reinstating of the pay for Mark Ridley Thomas. He actually 523 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 9: backed that move and said that the city charter allows 524 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 9: for that, because again, that was you know, when we 525 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 9: look at the case with Ridley Thomas, that was a 526 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 9: settlement to reinstate his pay. I think this is a 527 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 9: battlement he is gonna want to take. I've reached out 528 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 9: to his office to confirm if that's something that he 529 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 9: will in fact do. I haven't heard back, but people 530 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 9: are citing his position when it came to Ridley Thomas. 531 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,880 Speaker 9: So we can expect that that may be the way 532 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 9: that he wants to lean on this one. 533 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: All right, So you'd be covering this committee as they 534 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: look into this tomorrow. 535 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, we'll be watching closely. 536 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 9: It's gonna be uh, Like I said, it's going to 537 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,399 Speaker 9: be interesting to see where it goes. I think that 538 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 9: any reporter watching this right now is saying it's go 539 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 9: either way. 540 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 1: All right, Blake, thank you very much for that report. 541 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 3: All right, thanks Ken, It's Blake Troley KFI News covering 542 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 3: the current price drama at city Hall. The city council 543 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 3: member has stepped away from his duties, but he's not suspended. 544 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,119 Speaker 3: That's something that a committee will take up tomorrow and 545 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 3: then they may or may not refer to the full 546 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 3: council for a vote onto whether or not to suspend 547 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 3: him again. Ten felony counts, perjury, embezzlement, violation of the 548 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 3: conflict of interest laws. He should be suspended. And let's 549 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 3: just state this for what it is, because he is 550 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 3: a black city council member and they already lost Mark 551 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 3: Ridley Thomas. They're going very slow, and they're walking on 552 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 3: eggshells because they don't want to rush to judgment, and 553 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 3: on Price's end, we'd like to keep getting paid. It's 554 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 3: a significant amount of salary you're gonna get some city 555 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 3: council so you can put it towards your defense fund. 556 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 3: As I mentioned, next hour, the guy that knows all 557 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 3: this stuff inside and out to Daniel Guss with the 558 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 3: Gus Report.

I was watching I 590 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 3: think it's Food Network. 591 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:34,439 Speaker 1: A show called Chopped. 592 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 4: Oh I haven't seen that. 593 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 1: Well, it's a lot of meat. 594 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 6: It's a good one. 595 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 1: It's a competitive cooking show, right. 596 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 3: And the reason I thought of you was they had 597 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 3: What they do is they give them sort of a 598 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 3: box of mystery ingredients. They open the box and they 599 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 3: have to create dishes out of the ingredients in the box. 600 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 3: I tuned in late, but I thought of you, and 601 00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 3: I said, I'm not a vegan, but is that necessary? 602 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 3: You know what one of the ingredients was what I'd 603 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 3: never heard of this before. 604 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: Camel hump fat?

You see that 610 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 3: sometimes there's an unusual item. 611 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: Do with that. Oh well fat, most fat taste good? Right? 612 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 1: No camel hump fat? 613 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 11: No? 614 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 3: No, but I'm like, who would think of that? And 615 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 3: we need to slice the camel dimensial causes and they 616 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 3: slicing off the humps and squeezing out the fat. No, 617 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 3: I was kind of on your side. 618 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 4: That was street. 619 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 3: But then it's always interesting to see they make the 620 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 3: dish and they had the judges asked, now, what did 621 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 3: you do with the camel hump fat? 622 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 1: And they explain how they I'm. 623 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 8: Gonna barf, I swear right now.

Uh yeah, yesterday I was gone. Here's how 627 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 3: here's how it went back in April, I got the 628 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 3: old notice for jury duty, and I know a lot 629 00:29:58,080 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 3: of listeners are going to say, yes, throw it in 630 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 3: the drag. The criminal justice system is such a fraud 631 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 3: and such a mess. Why not respond. So what happened 632 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 3: was the week of my jury duty was a week 633 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 3: I was taking a trip, so I postponed and I 634 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 3: looked at the calendar and I saw Monday, June nineteenth 635 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 3: is a federal holiday. 636 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 1: No court, I'll take that week. 637 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 3: Right, So I postponed it, and then they remind me 638 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 3: that my jury duty's coming up. They did it on Friday, 639 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 3: so I looked again over the weekend and it said, oh, 640 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 3: you don't even have to report on Tuesday, June twentieth. 641 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 3: Don't even call in because they're not really doing anything. 642 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 3: And I thought, all right, escape day one. And then 643 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,719 Speaker 3: I called up Tuesday night. Not only did I have 644 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 3: to report, I had to report at eight am. And 645 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 3: I said, well, wait a minute. I did the little 646 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 3: online orientation. They usually let you come later. So I 647 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 3: was hunting around trying to figure out an answer to 648 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 3: that eight am. 649 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: That's so early. 650 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 3: Because I get downtown it's going to take like an 651 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 3: hour and a half with the stupid traffic in the morning, 652 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:00,120 Speaker 3: and I did leave. 653 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 1: Just after six thirty. 654 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 3: So I get there and it's the usual cattle call. 655 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 3: Everybody's standing there. This is the Criminal Courts building in 656 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 3: downtown Los Angeles. Not a place I wanted to go, 657 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 3: because immediately after I got out of my car and parked, 658 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,959 Speaker 3: I had to escape the homeless on the sidewalks. There 659 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 3: were tense just everywhere around the building, and all I 660 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 3: want to do was walk around the block. In fact, 661 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 3: after I got done with jury duty, I said, maybe 662 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 3: I'll look for somewhere to eat.

This is the eight o'clock group. 698 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 3: I said, Oh, then I got lucky reporting at eight 699 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 3: because the nine to forty five people have to probably 700 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 3: hang around for more trials. 701 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 1: They don't get to leave like we do. 702 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 3: But I was just sitting there and thinking, oh, that 703 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 3: is so cool, and like eleven, I was out of there. 704 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 8: You're so lucky I have summons. So July tenth is 705 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 8: when I'm supposed to go in. I have to call 706 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,719 Speaker 8: or and I did that first online training or not training, 707 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 8: that orientation, right, if. 708 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: I fill that out first, you can come in later, allegedly. 709 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 8: But I just figure no one's gonna want me. I'm 710 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 8: a news anchor in LA on the John and Ken Show. 711 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 8: I mean, really, you guys are gonna want me. 712 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 3: So, oh, I'm sure during questioning you'll be I'll be booty, 713 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 3: you'll be disallowed. Yeah, the same thing probably would have 714 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 3: happened to me. I've never have you ever gotten to 715 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 3: that point? Nope? You know John did once in Beverly Hills, 716 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 3: I think, and he basically said who he was and 717 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 3: that was that. Yeah, of course, I have never gotten 718 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 3: to the point of being interviewed for a trial. And 719 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 3: I think they did it better this time because what 720 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 3: they did is they brought in a large group of 721 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 3: people at eight am for just two trial situations, and 722 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 3: one was resolved and the other one they announced names 723 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 3: and they said go, and then they bought in another group, 724 00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 3: probably because I think what they used to do was 725 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 3: just bring up mass of people, no matter how many 726 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 3: cases they had going, and they'd make your wait around 727 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:04,959 Speaker 3: all day to see how they resolve. 728 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 1: So I think they came up. I think I don't know. 729 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,879 Speaker 8: I'll let you know, going to be in the same 730 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,320 Speaker 8: position in a couple of weeks. 731 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:13,839 Speaker 3: But the woman was actually funny that was running this thing, 732 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 3: because when she was reading the names at the end, 733 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:18,239 Speaker 3: she said, all you have to do is say here 734 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 3: and go up front, turn in your paperwork, and you'll 735 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 3: be giving a slip that you did your jury duty 736 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 3: and you'll leave. So she started reading the names and 737 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,880 Speaker 3: some people would go yes here, A couple of people. 738 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,759 Speaker 1: Were going no. She goes, why are you saying no? 739 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 3: This is just to determine if you're here, and she 740 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 3: goes all kinds of people. She kept repeating, I've run 741 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,759 Speaker 3: into all kinds of people and some just do not 742 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:41,240 Speaker 3: get it. 743 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 4: And those we all want on the jury right. 744 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: And then I have to admit it. 745 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 3: We sat there because she said well, if you said yes, 746 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 3: your name was called leave go to the front. I 747 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 3: was like, oh, yeah, you're right, let's just leave just 748 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,240 Speaker 3: so because if you walk up to me and say 749 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,040 Speaker 3: do I have to report tomorrow, I'm actually gonna say yes, 750 00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 3: because you deserve that for being that stupid for not 751 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 3: follow simple instructions. All right, Coming up next, we're gonna 752 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 3: talk about shoplifting and the Attorney General for the state 753 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,840 Speaker 3: of California, Rob Bonte, held a big news event.
