00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: holder Tom Cruise's new best friend, La Mayor, Karen Bass.

5
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 1: That's right, you made us so proud.

6
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 2: Well, thank you so much. I am glad I made

00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 2: you proud. It was a wonderful moment. I just am

8
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 2: so excited about what's to come.

9
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 1: Well, tell us, just like take us inside your body

10
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 1: at that moment, inside your bloodstream and your head. What

11
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 1: did it really feel like emotionally and humanly to be

12
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 1: standing there representing our country and now the torch being passed?

13
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,239
Speaker 2: Well, I tell you it was overwhelming. You know. I

14
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 2: just wanted to make sure that I did our city

15
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 2: and our country proud. When I walked up on that stage,

16
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 2: you know, there was team that was right in front

17
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 2: of me. You couldn't see them because they were down

18
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: below the stage. And I looked at all of those

19
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 2: young people that I just feel so proud of their

20
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 2: discipline and their courage and their success. I mean, we

21
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 2: let the medals, of course we did. And knowing that,

22
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 2: you know, in four years the whole world's attention will

23
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 2: be on us. By the way, meeting Simone Bios was

24
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 2: a highlight because I think she is phenomenal, and so

25
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 2: that was also something that was so special to me.

26
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 2: The world's greatest gymnasts right there in front of.

27
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 1: Me, and an incredible human being as well. I've had

28
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: a chance to meet her a couple of times. Just wonderful.

29
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: And to see the image of the two of you

30
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: and the Mayor of Paris and then Tom Cruise coming in.

31
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: You know what we were saying coming off of the beauty.

32
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: I mean, Paris is Paris. It's got so much history

33
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: and so much beautiful architecture, and it's Paris, and it

34
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 1: was beautiful. It's romantic, and you fantasize about being in Paris.

35
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: But you know what we're saying about La, we have swag, like.

36
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 3: There's a there's a swag to La at least is cool.

37
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 2: That is absolutely right, and just think, I mean, we're

38
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 2: the creative center center of the world, and so I

39
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 2: know that we are just going to have a phenomenal games.

40
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 2: You know, one thing that I really enjoyed about Parents,

41
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 2: and I hope to see here too, is the way

42
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 2: that the whole city was involved, whether they actually went

43
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 2: to games or not, everybody was involved. It was a

44
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 2: very joyful occasion and I definitely want to see us

45
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 2: emulate that as well.

46
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 1: So should we start planting flowers in our gardens and

47
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,959
Speaker 1: yards now so that when people are flying in they'll

48
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 1: see pretty colors. I love that.

49
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 2: I think that's wonderful. And just think about it. You know,

50
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 2: all of those countries that will be here. We are

51
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 2: a city with over two hundred languages spoken, and for

52
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,239
Speaker 2: every country that will be coming here for the Olympics,

53
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 2: they're Angelino's from those countries, and so I want to

54
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 2: make sure that the guests coming in know all of

55
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 2: our city, all of the richness and the diversity that

56
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 2: La is. We're an international city.

57
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: It's so true, Mayor Karen Bass with us. Now, is

58
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: the four years going to go fast for you?

59
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 2: Well, you know what, it's going to go really fast,

60
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 2: because just think about it, Ryan. In twenty twenty six,

61
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 2: we have the All Star Game, we have the US

62
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 2: Open for Women in golf, we have the World Cup.

63
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: Eight games will be played here. But then there's all

64
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 2: the other you know, watch parties that take place over

65
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 2: forty days, in twenty twenty seven, we have the Super Bowl,

66
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 2: then we get to twenty twenty eight, so I view

67
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 2: all of those other eventss rehearsal.

68
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is going to go quick. Yeah. So if

69
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 3: you're think of selling your house today.

70
00:03:54,440 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 2: Wait, exactly, it'll be worth much more.

71
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: Mayor vast now after you've exhausted all the possible potential

72
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 1: terms as mayor of Los Angeles.

73
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 3: Do you think Snoop should run and will he win?

74
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 2: I think Snoop us to do what he did at

75
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 2: the Olympics. He was a wonderful ambassador for all of us,

76
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,720
Speaker 2: represented us well, and I think he was a part

77
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 2: of the joy in terms of people were just having

78
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 2: a good time. And I think that that's a great role.

79
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: Well, we're you have to know, I know you're there,

80
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,559

82
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: Biles and all. The celebration of the closing ceremony. The

83
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: morning after was quintessential La weather. There was no marine layer,

84
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:51,679
Speaker 1: it wasn't too hot, it was like perfect La weather.

85
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 1: And I came in with a little bit of an

86
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: endorphin rush because we need we need to feel that again,

87
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 1: don't we exactly?

88
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 2: We absolutely do, which means we have a lot of

89
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 2: work to do in our city that will add to

90
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 2: that and contribute to it. And then before the plane landed,

91
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: was there an earthquake?

92
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:09,520
