1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:04,200 Speaker 1: It's quite a weekend this weekend, after learning that Sam 2 00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: Rubin from Channel five KTLA died on Friday from a 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,360 Speaker 1: heart attack. They're reporting it. Really it struck me because 4 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:13,040 Speaker 1: we've known him so long, we've known him so well, 5 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 1: he's got so much energy. We were just with him 6 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: on Yeah, he was just on ktl A the day 7 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,400 Speaker 1: before that was that. I mean, it does make you say, 8 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: while life is precious, while, why am I putting stuff off? 9 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 1: I mean I even thought about them. I'm I'm like thinking, oh, 10 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to wait ten years to do that because 11 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 1: I'm busy. Yep, I don't know. It does make you 12 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: rethink things, and certainly with it being a special weekend 13 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 1: for mothers too. You know, these things you appreciate the 14 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 1: time you've got with the people that you love and 15 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 1: who are close to you. But what I couldn't get 16 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:53,520 Speaker 1: over was the suddenness, and was the fact that we 17 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: were just with the guy. We were just with him 18 00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: down at Disneyland on our twentieth anniversary and we had 19 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: him on many times on this show, but he had 20 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: us on his show then and it was Sisiny who's 21 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 1: out sick today? And it was Tanya and it was 22 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 1: myself and there he was, and he was He was 23 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: even joking about how we got there right at the end, 24 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: because we went from Chalk to Disneyland and we got there, 25 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: I think right as he was wrapping up his broadcast, 26 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: and he was kind of making a joke that we 27 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 1: timed it so we'd be right at the end and 28 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: make him wait a little bit. But he always had 29 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: that sense of humor. Yeah he did. And here is 30 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: part of that conversation that we just had less than 31 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: two weeks ago. 32 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 2: Look who's here? 33 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: I mean, this is it.

That energy is 45 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 1: what people kept saying and celebrating and talking about. He 46 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: had a uniqueness about him and he had lived everything. 47 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: There was no script, there was no copy, there were 48 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 1: no notes.
