1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: Mo Kelly, I'm back and I'm in for John and Kin. 2 00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:07,840 Speaker 1: We're live everywhere the iHeartRadio app. And let's see what's 3 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: going on with this South Southwest airlines cancelations, delays. Blake 4 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:16,080 Speaker 1: Trolley joins me now in studio, Blake, let me just 5 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: say Merry Christmas, Happy holidays. Is good to have you 6 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: in studio on this day. But what the heck is 7 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 1: going on around the country with these cancelations. Yeah, well, 8 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: it sounds like a lot of people's holiday breaks are 9 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: being extended, probably a little bit to pass when they 10 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,599 Speaker 1: want them to. Nationwide, we'll just go We'll start there 11 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: with the national numbers. The airline is canceled more than 12 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: twenty five hundred flights today. And of course this is 13 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,519 Speaker 1: hitting airlines here, this is hitting airports including Orange County, 14 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 1: John Wayne, Long Beach, Lax, and Burbank. If you go 15 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: on Southwest website and you try to get a flight 16 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,560 Speaker 1: out of one of these airports largely, you will see 17 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: that these are unavailable through Saturday. In fact, the only 18 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 1: ones I was able to find, and they're probably already 19 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: sold at this point. Where from like I think it 20 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: was Lax to Dallas on a Saturday. I was trying 21 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 1: different combinations and was able to find that. So good 22 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: luck there if you're trying to actually book a flight 23 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: out of Southwest and the next several days. Anyways, I 24 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,040 Speaker 1: went to Hollywood Burbank this morning, and as soon as 25 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: I pulled up to the airport, I actually saw a 26 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,320 Speaker 1: Southwest flight take off, So I made a wish. Inside 27 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: the airport, I think a lot of people at this point. 28 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 1: I was expecting to see some of these massive crowds, 29 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: but I do think today a lot of people had 30 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: kind of gotten word. They were checking ahead as they've 31 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: been worn to, so a lot of people at the 32 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,839 Speaker 1: airport were on flights that were actually taking off on time. 33 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,040 Speaker 1: I checked the marquee. It was a real mix today 34 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: between canceled and on time at Burbank. You know, same 35 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 1: thing with other airports. But anyways, inside the airport, I 36 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: did talk to a couple of people that we're dealing 37 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: with cancelations. We'll start with this couple. They say they've 38 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: been trying to get back to Las Vegas for the 39 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:57,559 Speaker 1: last last couple of days. They were delayed two days. 40 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: They showed up today and their flight was again. Scenes 41 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: like Southwest is not trying to do anything to compensate 42 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: the stranded passengers, and I think that is really awful. Okay, 43 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 1: so let's start with the two days though. What have 44 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: the last two days been like for you? We had 45 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: to stay at a facility hotel, Hotel Burbank that was 46 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:27,239 Speaker 1: provided by Southwest. They have adequate accommodations, but you know, 47 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: it's something just to meet our knees while we are here. 48 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: But they did put you up for a couple of days. Yeah, 49 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: but they don't want to provide us anymore any more 50 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: than just those two days. So they said, we're just 51 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: going to give you two days. So if you don't 52 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: get out of here today, it's on you. Is that 53 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: what I'm understanding? Yeah, Ba, this weekend pretty much buy 54 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: our own ticket and we have to pay for it. 55 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: And so that couple says they spoke to an age 56 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: and a supervisor. No help. They are considering driving given 57 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: that they are going back to going back to Las Vegas. 58 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 1: But the man just had surgery and the woman says 59 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: she's having vision problems. Again, this was an elderly couple. 60 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: I want to go to this guy. He had a 61 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: business trip to Hawaii. The route was to hit San Jose, 62 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: then Hawaii. The first leg of it was canceled this morning, 63 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: which said come to see a gate agent to get 64 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: it clarified. And they've told me the whole thing has 65 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: been canceled. They just they're overwhelmed. They're having a lot 66 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: of glitches in their system. They said they could rebook 67 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: it after the thirty first or give me a refund. 68 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 1: Those are the only two options available at this time. Well, 69 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: it's on a corporate account, so I'm going to call 70 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: them and see what they want to do with I 71 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: assume it'll be a refund and let just have to 72 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: rebook later. Were you a little bit frustrated that you 73 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: had to come all the way here to get that 74 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: confirmation that it was that it was canceled. I mean, 75 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: we just watched you wait in line. Yeah, that was 76 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: a little bit of a bummer because the notification said 77 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: go to a gate agent or call customer service. So 78 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: you can imagine I've been calling customer service and all 79 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,119 Speaker 1: you get is a busy signal or just dead air. 80 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 1: This is actually booked through a travel agent, so they 81 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: supposedly have a super secret number. They call and they 82 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: said that there was just dead air and there end too. 83 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: So Southwest is having a real rough time right now. 84 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: You're not the only one, absolutely, I definitely am not. 85 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: And I'm probably in a better situation than a lot 86 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 1: of these folks because I'm a half far away from 87 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: a house now, so you know, I'm not trying to 88 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 1: get home like a lot of these folks are. So 89 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: here's where I think the turn gets interesting. The airline's 90 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: blaming winter weather call and it is calling the cancelations unacceptable. 91 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: It says it was fully staffed heading into the holiday weekend, 92 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 1: but again it was hit with this winter weather, causing 93 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 1: massive delays. The airline says nationally, for the next several 94 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 1: days it's going to be operating on get this one third, 95 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: about one third of its schedule. Now the airport or 96 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: the airline is up against two investigations. President Biden has 97 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: sounded off on this. The Department of Transportation says it's investigating, 98 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: and now we're seeing action from the Senate. A senator 99 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: out of Washington. This is Senator Maria Caldwell. She's the 100 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: chair of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. 101 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: She says the issues go beyond whether She says the 102 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: committee will again be investigating. She took aim at airline company, 103 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:16,239 Speaker 1: saying they're failing to adequately communicate with people during cancelations, 104 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: and she says consumers deserve an updated consumer refund rule. 105 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: And again with the Department of Transportation, they're also looking 106 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: to see really what caused these cancelations and if what 107 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 1: the airport is doing, you know, is it keeping up 108 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: with its its refund policies. I did look into these guys. 109 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: The airport is letting people you know, rebook, uh you know, 110 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: or or fly stand by for the next fourteen days 111 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: free of charge. We heard there that people were accommodated 112 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: hotel room, so it sounds like some of that's happened. 113 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 1: And people can also turn in receipts for other expenses 114 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: from these from these cancelations. Here's the problem that I 115 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: have with South Southwest supposed reason for all these cancelations. Yeah, 116 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 1: we know that bad weather is a variable in the equation, 117 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 1: but the bad weather is not just at a southwest hub. 118 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: It's it's affecting most markets on the east coasts and 119 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,919 Speaker 1: then the south. So it would seem that this level 120 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: of disruption should be seen by all airlines. Are most airlines. 121 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: Even up until this point last week, it was just 122 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: about everyone. Right now it's just Southwest. That's why I 123 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: think there's something that Southwest is doing or not doing 124 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: which is help helping to cause this is that Yeah, 125 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: well it feels like when I used to get bad 126 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: grades on stuff and I was the only one. You know, 127 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: It's kind of got that same vibe to it. And 128 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: the thing is, you know, when it comes to Southwest 129 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: and it comes to this whole situation, there is some 130 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: talk right with industry experts and even the head of 131 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: the union for pilots that fly for Southwest saying no, 132 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: this comes down to outdated technology, scheduling technology. So I 133 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 1: think that's going to be a big part of this 134 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 1: investigation as they move forward. Blake, There's so much more 135 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 1: I want to cover about this with you, with Southwest, 136 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,279 Speaker 1: the airlines in general, and I wonder something to ponder 137 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: during the break whether this stains this particular airlines, stains 138 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: the industry, because it seems like this is a problem 139 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: which is becoming more and more prevalent. Going back to 140 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: the cancelations, I would say, just coming out of the 141 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: pandemic and whether we can actually depend on the airlines 142 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: industry to provide the service and also to be above 143 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: board in what they do. So let's talk about that 144 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 1: on the other side of this break. This is the 145 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: John and Kin Show. I'm Okelly in for John and 146 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: Ken KF I am six forty. We are live everywhere 147 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: on the iHeartRadio app. Before the break, KFI Zone, Blake 148 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: Trolley had joined me in studio and we began a 149 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: conversation about the rampant cancelations of flights for Southwest Airlines 150 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: and before the break, Blake I was wondering out loud 151 00:07:56,200 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 1: whether this is going to stain the airlines more permanently 152 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 1: given the rash my word, the rash of these cancelations 153 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: regarding this particular airlines over the past year. We've heard 154 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: the excuses of it being whether than whether now it's 155 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:17,239 Speaker 1: in WAHR. And it makes me wonder whether there's something 156 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: peculiar to Southwest because it seems like it's happening to 157 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: Southwest more than any other airlines. And given the general 158 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: distaste and dislike of the traveling experience, justice at a 159 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: certain point hit a tipping point where Southwest is going 160 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: to have to pay for this lack of a better phrase. Well, 161 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:39,839 Speaker 1: I think it does. And I think you're already seeing 162 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: some of that action, right, I mean, as we spoke 163 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: about it, a Senate committee is now looking at this. 164 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: They're saying that there needs to be changes to the 165 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: way consumers are refunded and really taking aim at the 166 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 1: way airlines communicate with people while you know, when their 167 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: flights are canceled. So I think just in that alone, 168 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: we're already seeing that there is some sort of legislator 169 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: of response to this. And you know, I certainly think 170 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 1: following this, this is going to be one of those 171 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: things that people are going to remember for the next 172 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: couple months, and I think we will see some action 173 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: in the Senate, a Senate, especially if there is a 174 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 1: committee on this. And yeah, I think largely, I mean 175 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: just my opinion here, I think largely the Senate's going 176 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: to see some support on that, especially with refunds. You know, 177 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: I think people really don't feel too happy with the 178 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: way refunds work with flights with airlines, and I think 179 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: people want an easier refund process. There's something else, just 180 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: the general I'll say, discomfort with traveling. It's not necessarily economical. 181 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: You can have a thousand dollars flight going from here 182 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: to Portland, I know firsthand. And you can have a 183 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: flight on Southwest not be able to choose your seat, 184 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 1: or you can go to another airline and they will 185 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: charge you thirty to forty dollars to actually choose which 186 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: seat you'll be in. It seems like it's getting progressively 187 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: worse big picture for travelers saying nothing the Southwest airlines, 188 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: and I wonder if there will be any type of 189 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: alternative because still flying private is not necessarily cost effective 190 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,439 Speaker 1: or a viable option for most people. It seems like 191 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: they have us and there's nowhere for us to go. Yeah. No, 192 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 1: I'm a few bouts short, and I always joke that 193 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: business class should just be called nineties coach right when 194 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: my business class seat, you should just say, yeah, hi, 195 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: can I have a nineties coach seat? Since this is 196 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: what it used to be. So I do think that 197 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: flights have gotten progressively. I mean, we all know that 198 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 1: the seats seem like they've gotten progressively much more uncomfortable 199 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: as they try to get more people on planes. Then 200 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: you're hearing the conversation bubble up around this Southwest collapse 201 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: that this could come down to old scheduling equipment, and 202 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: you're saying, well, if you're packing flights more economically and 203 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 1: you're not updating the system, you know what, Yeah, what's 204 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: gonna give? Because I think consumers are are pretty up well, 205 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 1: they're charging for everything. If you have a bag that 206 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: they're gonna charge you for it, if you have a 207 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: personal item you can only have a personal item, which 208 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: you can't have a carry on, or you're gonna they're 209 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: gonna charge you for an internet, or they're gonna charge 210 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: you for the food. They literally charge you for anything 211 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: other than the gas to gas up the plane. Is 212 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 1: there anything that we're getting out of this experience, and 213 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: this is rhetorical, is there anything we're getting out of 214 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: this experiences experience other than just heartache? Yeah, it's tough. 215 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 1: I mean it's tough. And then again, like it's like 216 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: the couples that you know, the couple we spoke to today, 217 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 1: You know, there are when it comes to flying, some 218 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: people are flying out of necessity also, so when it 219 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: you know, it is a little bit crushing when you 220 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 1: when you think about some of the people that are 221 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: dealing with this, Like the elderly couple I spoke with, 222 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: I said, well, why don't you just drive back to 223 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: Las Vegas, And they said, well, look he just had surgery. 224 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,439 Speaker 1: I have bad, you know, poor vision, So flying really 225 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: was our best option. So I think there and I 226 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 1: be and I guarantee, especially through the holidays where people 227 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: are real kind of pulling out the stops to see 228 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: their families, I think that you're going to get a 229 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 1: lot of frustrated people out of this. And again, I 230 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: think you're going to see a lot more support for changes, 231 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 1: and I think people are ready to see changes and 232 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: more regulations because it does seem at this point like 233 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: it's gotten a little bit excessive. Right when it comes 234 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: to the experience and the treatment the airlines able to 235 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: give us, it would seem like it would be a 236 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: great opportunity for an airlines to separate itself from the 237 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 1: risk by focusing on the travel experience of its patrons 238 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: in the way and I used to love Virgin Airlines, 239 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 1: loved it before Alaska. I think it was Alaska who 240 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 1: bought it, and Virgin really considered the experience of the 241 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: passenger in the way that it laid out its trip 242 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,679 Speaker 1: from beginning to end. And I don't think any airlines 243 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: is really focusing on the passenger. I mean, there's some 244 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,319 Speaker 1: international airlines if I were to fly, like Emirates or 245 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: something like that, but we don't have anything like that 246 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: here in the United States in terms of that level 247 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: of competition to say, you know, there is a way 248 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 1: which you could do it. It doesn't necessarily have to 249 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: be a premium a premium experience experience financially, but you 250 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: can have a better experience which focuses on the actual passenger. 251 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: And at this point I can't think of an airline 252 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: which actually does that. They basically say, yeah, what else 253 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: are you gonna do? Where else are you going to go? 254 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: You're gonna have to pay for this here or you're 255 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 1: gonna have to pay for that there. Because I'm not 256 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: saying that they collude, but I am saying that they collude. Well, 257 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,840 Speaker 1: what you know, and the other thing to think about here, 258 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: you're talking about treatment, just treating people better when they 259 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 1: get on a flight. I think a lot of people 260 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 1: are ready to see better treatment. You know, it is 261 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 1: there is this total disconnect between the price point of 262 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: flying and the way you get treated. And as you say, 263 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: it is basically a commodity for people, and you know, 264 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: for myself. You know, I'm just speaking for myself here. 265 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: When I fly, it's expensive, it's a dent to the wallet. 266 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: It'd be nice to know when my wallet's getting dented 267 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 1: that at least it's a nice experience. You know, at 268 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: least flying comes with some comforts and at least you're 269 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: being treated with some level of respect, respect, or appreciation. Hospitality, 270 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: I guess, is the word I'm looking for. But there's 271 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,559 Speaker 1: some level of hospitality there based on how much you're 272 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: paying to fly. I remember a time in which you 273 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: would get on an airplane and you get an actual 274 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: meal as part of your flight. They even had actual silverware. 275 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: They actually catered to you. Now you're lucky if you 276 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: get some damn peanuts and some orange juice and that's 277 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: about it. Yeah, if you're real lucky, they give you 278 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 1: the whole can, the whole the whole can, like they're 279 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: doing something and you should be pleased. Yes, well, I 280 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: guess we're saying the same thing. But big picture, what 281 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: is going on right now with Southwest. Hopefully we'll have 282 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: a ripple effect in the way that the cancelations have 283 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: had this cascading effect. Hopefully the issue surrounding these cancelations, 284 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: we'll have a cascading effect and bring about some measurable 285 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: reform within the industry. Because it doesn't matter if only 286 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: Southwest gets better and gets back to the level of 287 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 1: other airlines. That's not enough for me. We need there 288 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 1: to be a complete reformation of the industry so everyone 289 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: can actually benefit from it. Because of south Southwest just 290 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: gets back to doing things that they were prior to 291 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: this crisis. Well, nothing has really changed, nothing has really improved. 292 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: I would hope that. Oh I forgot to say last time, 293 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 1: I flew business class, and this is why this is 294 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: like a bird in my ass. I flew on Southwest 295 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: what I thought was business class. I damn sure, No, 296 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: I paid for business class, and what it turned out 297 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: to me was I got to board and I don't know, 298 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 1: like group A one through thirty or something like that. 299 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 1: I got to board earlier. I did not get free internet, 300 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 1: even though I was promised that. I didn't get any food, 301 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: even though there was supposed to be food according to 302 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: what I was paying for. The only thing I got 303 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 1: was I got on the plane earlier, and I got 304 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 1: off the plane earlier, and the seats weren't any different. 305 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: They weren't any wider. I didn't get any liquor for free. 306 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: There was absolutely no benefit to paying the extra dollars. 307 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: And that's part of the reason I think my experience 308 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: is indicative of other people's experience. I don't think I'm special. 309 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: I think I was not the only one who got robbed, 310 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 1: if you will, who got taken for paying for a 311 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: higher class of service that it really wasn't well, you 312 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 1: know the whole. One of the craziest things about what 313 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: you're saying right now, and when we talk about it 314 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: as an industry. As a whole, most industries, the service 315 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: gets better as time goes on. It's kind of funny 316 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: that we're talking about the airline industry and we're saying, 317 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't be nice if it regressed, if it went back 318 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: into its old ways. I think I do find that 319 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: a little bit weird. Yeah, And I remember a time 320 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: when I was a child. You used to dress up 321 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: to travel. You would wear men at least will wear 322 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,199 Speaker 1: a sport coat. It was something that it was a 323 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: representation of yourself. Now people don't dress up, and I 324 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,880 Speaker 1: can't get mad at them. It's like, what are you offering? 325 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: What is the experience which is consistent with a degree 326 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: of class. Yeah. The only thing I do is I 327 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: make sure I've got a good padded sleeve, you know, 328 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: for that armrest battle. You gotta have a nice puffy 329 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 1: sleeve now to make sure you get that armrest. Yeah. 330 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: I usually stretch before I get on a plane, just 331 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: in case there's a fight. That's about it.

If you ever listen to 352 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 1: the mo Kelly Show, you know that I'm a firm 353 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: believer of not being a stupid criminal. I'll give you 354 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: some credit if you come up with something which is 355 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: really ingenious and really inventive and he makes some money. 356 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,400 Speaker 1: I still want you to go to jail, but I'm 357 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: saying I'll give you credited lease in that regard, but 358 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: not on this occasion. Not on this occasion. Let's go 359 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 1: to Santa Cruz real quick. Investigators with the Santa Cruz 360 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: Police Department say nineteen year old Damien Vela was arrested 361 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 1: last week for creating fake parking tickets and placing them 362 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 1: on vehicles at or near local beaches. And if you 363 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: examine the fake tickets, they didn't really look a lot 364 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,919 Speaker 1: like real tickets, but they did have some similar characteristics 365 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 1: if you saw them side by side, but there were 366 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 1: some cartoon looking palm trees. If you looked at it closer, 367 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: it's like, this can't be real. But it was fooling 368 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 1: some people. They even had QR codes where people could 369 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: scan and pay their quote unquote fines, and some people did. 370 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,439 Speaker 1: Police caught the nineteen year old placing these tickets on 371 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 1: cars as of December twenty first, and they booked him 372 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: for unlaw full use of a computer system and attempted fraud. 373 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: Now that's just local. I just know from my time 374 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: serving on a federal grand jury that's wire fraud. Anytime 375 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: that you use the Internet or a phone or email, 376 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: or in this case, you know a QR code which 377 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 1: would be considered as the Internet, that's wire fraud. And 378 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 1: you can serve up to twenty years. And I'm quite 379 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: sure that the fads have taken notice of this scheme, 380 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: and from what I read, the scam is just one 381 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: of many similar parking scams that have been popping up 382 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: all around the country. Experts try to tell you and me, 383 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: you know, be wary of these scams, and I think 384 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 1: it's more a crime of people not paying close attention. 385 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: They're not real sophisticated crimes, like, for example, you can 386 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: get a QR code for free immediately inside of five minutes, 387 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: and then you can have that QR code, which is 388 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: basically a bar code of of sorts, and it would 389 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: have it would be pointing back to any website you 390 00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: want where people could input personal information, payment information, and 391 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: obviously money, and not only do you have their money, 392 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 1: but you have their personal information. It's not a sophisticated crime. 393 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: But as I was saying at the beginning of the segment, 394 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: it was a dumb way to go about it, because 395 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: ultimately the QR code, the payments, everything tied back to 396 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 1: the nineteen year old and he was caught red handed 397 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 1: placing these tickets on the car. So it's not like 398 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: he can say, hey, that's not mine or I have 399 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: nothing to do with it. He was literally caught in 400 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 1: the act of committing the crime. Don't do stupid crimes, now, 401 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: I'll give it. If I were to give him any credit, 402 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:54,199 Speaker 1: it's that he at least tried something seemingly different. And 403 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: I tell people all the time, I'm not a criminal, 404 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: but sometimes I will think, like one, and you just 405 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 1: can't have all this stuff pointing back to you. If 406 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 1: he didn't have the QR code pointing back to him, 407 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,640 Speaker 1: if he didn't go out in physically placed the tickets himself, 408 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 1: had maybe someone else do it, then maybe he could 409 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: have had a better chance of getting away. And twalla, 410 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: you know a little something about this, well not you 411 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,159 Speaker 1: know a little talk about this, but you understand what 412 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: I mean when I say when I talk about uh, 413 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,719 Speaker 1: young people trying to do stuff and get over. You know, 414 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 1: there there are smart crimes and there are really dumb crimes. 415 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: Let's turn on turn on talis Mike there, Okay, there 416 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: are no new crimes under the sun, right, there's just 417 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: new methods, new methods. And I know that this young 418 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 1: man probably thought, well, hey, half the people that I'm 419 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: targeting are too stupid to even know how this works. 420 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: But it only takes one person to say, hey, what 421 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: the heck and you're done? Why didn't he and I 422 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 1: mean this seriously, he was in a place in which 423 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: they do ticket Why did he not take an actual 424 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: ticket and use that as a template, yes, to make 425 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 1: it less obvious that it was a fake. I'm really 426 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: uncomfortable with airing out all of our criminal knowledge on 427 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: the air because it sound good. But there are so 428 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:26,479 Speaker 1: many different ways that he could have gone about doing this. 429 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: If he had this technology, as you said, it's not 430 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 1: hard to copy the way of ticular, he could have 431 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 1: put that in a similar envelope and just put it 432 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 1: on the windshield. But here's the thing that most of 433 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 1: these new age criminals don't do. They don't get out 434 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 1: soon enough. They get greedy. They got greedy. Everyone that 435 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: gets into these new crimes they get greedy, and that's 436 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: how they get caught. And he kept going back to 437 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,919 Speaker 1: the same location, never revisited the scene of the crime. 438 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 1: If he did a different location each day. And I'm 439 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,360 Speaker 1: not saying that he should have. And if you get 440 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: caught doing this and we want to point it back 441 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 1: to me or say you heard about this on CAFI, 442 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: no no no, no, no, no no. I'm not advocating 443 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 1: for this. I'm saying these are the mistakes that he made. 444 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 1: I don't know why he went back to the same beach. 445 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: I don't know why he was handing it out himself. 446 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: I don't know why he didn't take the time to 447 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: at least make it look like a real ticket. Again, 448 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 1: this is not a smart criminal. Fortunately, fortunately not a 449 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 1: smart criminal, and he's not part of a criminal enterprise 450 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: that's going around city of the city targeting, maybe following 451 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: elderly people home to see where they live to ticket 452 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 1: their cars. That would be the easiest way to go 453 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 1: about it. But again I'm not trying to give advice 454 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 1: to criminals. I'm saying, you know, I watch a lot 455 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,640 Speaker 1: of criminal TV. I watch a lot of Law and Orders, 456 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: and I see how they get I see how they 457 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 1: get caught in the end of the episode. So always 458 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 1: think about these I think Law and Orders a little 459 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 1: bit more sophisticated with the nature of crime that they're 460 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: dealing with. They're not dealing with fake parking tickets. No 461 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 1: they're not. But they teach you how think and how 462 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,959 Speaker 1: they go about coming after you, how they know how 463 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: to find you. I always think about the literal paper trail, 464 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: which and there was literal paper here, and there's also 465 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,719 Speaker 1: the electronic trail that he was leaving. He was nineteen. 466 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 1: I don't expect him to be a mastermind. But at 467 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 1: the same time, he didn't quite think it through. He 468 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 1: only thought it through as far as how can I 469 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 1: get people's money. Not how can I stay out of jail? Yes, 470 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: And the thing about it is an individual like this 471 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: and all young people out there look to the FTX guy. 472 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter how high you go on your criminal 473 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,919 Speaker 1: enterprise level, you're gonna get caught. And this is what 474 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 1: I always say. I understand is someone thinks that if 475 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: he or she should do this one thing, they can 476 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 1: fundamentally change their life and end all their money problems. 477 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 1: I don't agree with ever doing that, but I at 478 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 1: least I understand the mentality. What I don't understand is 479 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 1: someone thinking that they can nickel and dime their way 480 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 1: to changing their life financially. Like in other words, when 481 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 1: someone robs a seven to eleven and it happens often, Yeah, 482 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: that two or three hundred dollars that you get, if 483 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: that is not worth going to jail for the next 484 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 1: ten fifteen years, No, it's not. Did you see the 485 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 1: story about the ladies, the four ladies that went and 486 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 1: installed the safe. Yeah, they walk, they go in there, 487 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 1: they take the literal safe and go out in the 488 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 1: shop of the car. It's nine thousand dollars. All four 489 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: of them can serve some fifty to twenty years for 490 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: nine thousand dollars to split between four people. That's a 491 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: stupid crime.

I was talking 513 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: about dumb criminals, and there are some dumb victims, now, 514 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: I mean, let's be fair, it's not always on the criminals. 515 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: Sometimes when I say victims like it kind of brought 516 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 1: it on yourself. I know you remember this, Twaller, Remember 517 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 1: AOL instant messenger, Awell instant Messenger or Yahoo Messenger. That 518 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: was when people really started connecting in a real time sense. 519 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 1: You would have certain dating websites, but the instant messenger 520 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 1: was how you could meet random folks and might have 521 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: been catfish you didn't know necessarily, but you were getting 522 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 1: to know a lot of people rather quickly online. Yeah, 523 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,159 Speaker 1: and I can understand how some people could get taken 524 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 1: in those circumstances, but no one should be No one 525 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 1: could claim innocence anymore. No one could claim like I 526 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 1: just didn't know. You should know at this point, if 527 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,479 Speaker 1: you've spent any time on the Internet, you don't know 528 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: who you're talking to basically, unless you've met that person, 529 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: and if you have to go to another continent to 530 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: meet that person, there's a good chance it's a scam. Now, 531 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: I've never had a transatlantic or multicontinent relationship, Like I 532 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: haven't met somebody in South America and we're just talking 533 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: on the internet. No, that's never happened. Never long distance love. No, 534 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: not not even longer than like maybe a couple of states, 535 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: and we had actually had already met in person, you know, 536 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 1: in the rich day. Kay. So if I tell you 537 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 1: about this LA man who met a woman air quotes 538 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: online and they talked for about three months, chatted online 539 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: for three months, and then he decided to go meet 540 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 1: her in Columbia, that's a mistake number four at that point, 541 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: because the whole point of look, I will, if anything, 542 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: I will pay for you to come to Los Angeles. 543 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: Because if I'm paying, I want to have control at 544 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: least of the situation. Or you know, I'll go half, 545 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 1: then she would go half. This is all hypothetically. I'm 546 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 1: married now, Okay, want to dictate the terms. Dictate the terms. 547 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: But if I'm going to go to Columbia and I 548 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: don't know you other than chatting online with you, that right, 549 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: there is suspect that is really suspect. Well, anyhow, this 550 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 1: guy went to Columbia. When he got there, he met 551 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: the woman and at the first meeting a man showed up. 552 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: In addition to this woman robbed him of six thousand 553 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 1: dollars and his cell phone. He's followed an incident report 554 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: with the local prosecutor's office. It's Columbia. Now, okay, yeah, 555 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: it's Columbia. I mean, I mean he could follow a 556 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 1: report with George Gascone. The same thing would happened, would 557 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: have been absolutely nothing. But my point is you're in Columbia. 558 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:50,239 Speaker 1: What the hell are you doing in Columbia? Okay, all right, look, 559 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: let's go through don't try to explain this. Let's go 560 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: through this. Let's go through this. We have to look 561 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: at how lonely this man was. Loneliness is a real thing, 562 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: and that is how a lot of these scammers are 563 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: able to take advantage. That's is how they take advantage 564 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: of the elderly with those bank wire fraud scams to 565 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 1: some prince in Zaire or whatever. That is how they 566 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: do it because you have these older people who are 567 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 1: lonely and are just enjoying the conversation. Next thing, you know, 568 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 1: they're built out of thousands of dollars. There is no 569 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: conversation that that's good. That is that good? You've again, 570 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: if this is a dateless man who's been just gaming 571 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: his whole life and talking to people in other countries 572 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: on roadblocks or whatever it is he's doing, he could 573 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: easily have been duped by this beautiful woman because now 574 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,959 Speaker 1: versus aol days, you're seeing images. He's probably sitting in them, 575 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: all types of tantalizing pictures they come and see me 576 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: in Colombia. You know, look, I would have I would 577 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: have gladly stepped in and introduced him to he's local LA. 578 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I can hook it up with some friends, 579 00:31:56,200 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: you know, and they could offer conversation to more possibly MO. 580 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: I'm just saying it's I feel for this guy. My 581 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: heart goes out to someone who's that lonely into day's 582 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: age that they still fell forward.

And 584 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: We've worked in the music industry long enough where people 585 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: come at us all sorts of ways, like can you help, 586 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: or you know, I nest need a little money for 587 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: this that the other.

No, he 593 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 1: was robbed of six thousand dollars, not including the flight 594 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: and his cell phone. And his cell phone so he 595 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: probably couldn't even call anyone. He didn't have any contacts. 596 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: The cartel got him. Now, Oh yeah, absolutely. Quote.
