Speaker 1: Can't. I am six forty. You're listening to the John

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: coblt podcast on the iHeartRadio app. We're on the radio

3
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,959
Speaker 1: from one until four, and then after four o'clock John

4
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 1: Cobelt on demand. It's the podcast version of the show,

5
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: same show, and you can pick up on what you missed.

6
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: We got. We got really interesting stuff coming up in

7
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: the two o'clock hour. There's two stories out there. One

8
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal has that says the Chinese lab

9
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 1: mapped the coronavirus two weeks before the Chinese Communist Party

10
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:41,200
Speaker 1: told the world. So for two weeks researchers had isolated

11
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: and mapped the virus, you know, the genetic mapping in

12
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: late December twenty nineteen, before Beijing told the rest of

13
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: the planet. We'll talk about that and even bigger. And

14
00:00:54,400 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: this is just terrifying. China is now studying a one

15
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: hundred percent fatal COVID. I no, no, but if you

16
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: get this one, it's one hundred percent that you're going

17
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 1: to be dead. We're going to talk with News Nation's

18
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 1: senior national correspondent, Brian Enton.

19
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 2: Uh.

20
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: He's investigating this.

21
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 3: Uh.

22
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: They are experimenting with a mutant COVID nineteen strain known

23
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: as g x P two v they have and by

24
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:35,679
Speaker 1: the way, the Chinese are actively creating and injecting this

25
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 1: virus into humanized mice. I don't know what a humanized

26
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: mouse is, but the well, it's the brains are engineered

27
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: to reflect genetic makeup similar to people, to see what happens.

28
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 1: And what they found is one hundred percent death rate

29
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: in eight days of the mice. This is what the

30
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: Chinese are working on.

31
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 4: It's been nice knowing you and working with you.

32
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: Now I know your other great oh for I actually

33
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 1: cover all three great fears, all right, infectious disease. Thirtieth

34
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 1: anniversary day in the North Which were you here.

35
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 5: For the time? I was not, but I'll tell you.

36
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 4: I was in the Bay Area and I was doing

37
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 4: mornings at the time, and the wire service was flashing

38
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,519
Speaker 4: and it says something I think it was a huge

39
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 4: earthquake hits Northridge. And I had a lot of family

40
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 4: members in Northridge and in the San Fernando Valley and

41
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 4: here I was in the Bay Area and trying to

42
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 4: get a hold of my family members, and of course

43
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 4: the phone lines were were not working.

44
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 5: It was really scary.

45
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 1: But I can't tap into a trauma from personal experience.

46
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 4: Well, I came to help with the cleanup, and let's

47
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 4: just say my family's homes were just.

48
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: Were they really wrecked? Yeah? Yeah, because you lived in

49
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 1: that park.

50
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's terrifying. That's why I worry. Look, thirty years

51
00:02:58,400 --> 00:02:58,959
Speaker 4: we are due.

52
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 5: That was at seven.

53
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 4: I'm assuming we're going to have a seven point two

54
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 4: or something.

55
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: No, there's been like three big LA quakes. There was

56
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: one Long Beach I think in nineteen thirty three, and

57
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: then the one in nineteen seventy one in the San

58
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: Fernando Valley, and then the north Ridge quake in nineteen

59
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 1: ninety four. Actually, Eric, you weren't even born for that quake. Now,

60
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 1: my mom was pregnant with me when it happened. Oh

61
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: so you did get shook up a little side of

62
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: the womb, but bang your head. And my aunt, though,

63
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 1: was for an aftershock. She was in Brent Deli, and

64
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: the way she knew an aftershock was happening was all

65
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: the salami hanging started swaying. Its pretty funny. Yeah, So

66
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: I was, I was, my wife and I were asleep. Right,

67
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: we'd already moved to La. In fact, we hadn't been

68
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: here that long and quickly realized Los Angeles was insane,

69
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: an insane place to be, and so the shaking started.

70
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: At four thirty one. I remember looking at the the

71
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: clock and it was shaking hard. We were in bed,

72
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: and I felt like I felt like scrambled eggs being

73
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: shook around in a pan. It was that kind of thing,

74
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: like it was going back and forth, back and forth.

75
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 1: We had this huge, heavy framed mirror right over the

76
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: bed at the head of the bed, and my wife

77
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,679
Speaker 1: grabbed the back of my hair right pulled really hard,

78
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: snapped my head back. So I thought she was going

79
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 1: to break my neck and sin. She pulled my head

80
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 1: back so hard. I looked up and I saw this big,

81
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: heavy mirror shaking and rattling over me, and I said,

82
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 1: I'm dead either if she snapping my neck or that

83
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 1: thing is gonna come down.

84
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 4: Maybe she was snapping your neck to get your head

85
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 4: away from the mirror, so it didn't come crass down.

86
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: No, it was it was just a reflex she had

87
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 1: because she was she was panicking. But then I'm looking

88
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 1: that up, I go, well, I actually remember this thought,

89
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 1: what's going to kill me? Her yank in the back

90
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: of my head or that mirror coming down.

91
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 5: But look a miracle you survived.

92
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: It was a miracle. One of the two should have

93
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: killed me.

94
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 4: So were you terrified because you always make fun of

95
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 4: me being afraid of earthquakes?

96
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: No, no, I wasn't actually thought, Oh this is cool.

97
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,679
Speaker 5: Being shaken around like scrambled eggs is cool.

98
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: What can I tell you? I'm but we just felt

99
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 1: one a couple of weeks ago in the station, Remember, Deborah,

100
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: I yes, I do remember.

101
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 4: It was on I was just about to do the

102
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,280
Speaker 4: news on the Gary and Jammin show when the earthquake hit.

103
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 5: But that was a four point two. This was a

104
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 5: six point.

105
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: Six point four. That's a whole six Yeah. Yeah, that's

106
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: a whole different feeling. I also remember looking out the

107
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: window because we were living in a townhouse right on

108
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 1: the edge of the LA and Beverly Hills, and looking

109
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,679
Speaker 1: out the window and I saw all these green explosions

110
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: because the transformer boxes on the utility poles were all exploding,

111
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 1: and there would be a green flash and a green

112
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: flash I think there were three of them. As everything

113
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: was shaking and we were getting you know, the electricity

114
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: grid was getting disconnected. From the world.

115
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 5: Did you have a lot of damage in your home?

116
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: No, just a wicker bookcase. All the all the books

117
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 1: fell off of that. I think there was a small table,

118
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: like a decorative table in the corner of our landing

119
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 1: of the staircase, and that had a tile top, and

120
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: that that that broke. But the thing is, I went

121
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: into the closet and it was pitch black in the closet.

122
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 1: I'm trying to find clothes and I ended up like

123
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 1: putting on I don't know, like pajamas and a suit jacket,

124
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: something ridiculous like that. I could see because we went

125
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,359
Speaker 1: outside because we were getting immediate aftershocks. So we stood

126
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 1: outside with all the other people. And I hated that

127
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,280
Speaker 1: because you know, everyone's buzzing about and now I got

128
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: to talk to people and I got to make small talk.

129
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: In the morning, It's like, I don't want to see people.

130
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 1: But then the program director here at the time, David Hall,

131
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: called me up asked me if I wanted to go

132
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: up in a helicopter during handles show, and okay, I'm

133
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: not doing anything. And so I got into the helicopter

134
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: and reported live on the air over the over the university. Yeah,

135
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: and I think we went over the ten Freeway too,

136
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: where that had collapsed.

137
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 5: Wow.

138
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: And what I remember that was the last time I

139
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: was in a helicopter because I remember feeling terribly nauseous.

140
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: I hadn't eaten, right, because in the panic, we ran outside,

141
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: went back inside. He called, I get in the car.

142
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: I go to this well.

143
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 2: I go.

144
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: Actually I went to Van Eyes to get into the helicopter,

145
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: I think, And I didn't eat and then all the

146
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: motion sickness that morning in the helicopter without eating, I

147
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: just wanted to open the door and wretch all over

148
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: north Ridge. I had just and decided I'm not going

149
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: in those things anymore. Yeah, it was. But you see

150
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: that feeds into my need for excitement. That's right. I

151
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 1: didn't get scared. I find it. It's like, oh this is exciting.

152
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 4: So let me ask you this. If you were roof collapsed,

153
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 4: would you have been scared? If there's a seven point

154
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 4: two tonight?

155
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 5: Oh? Please, universe, don't let that happen.

156
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: You just you just sent it out into the universe.

157
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 5: I can I retract that, put it back.

158
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: In my mouth. They're already working on it. They're already

159
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 1: working on that seven too. The Deborah.

160
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 4: No, No, that was just a dream. It was a

161
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:32,959
Speaker 4: figment of your imagination.

162
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 6: No.

163
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 4: But seriously, if you had more damage, if you saw

164
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 4: things just flying all over the place, if you flew

165
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,439
Speaker 4: right to the other side of the room, you wouldn't

166
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 4: be scared.

167
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 5: You wouldn't.

168
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: I suppose I could be scared. But there was nothing

169
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 1: in this that was really scary to me, because.

170
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 4: I've talked to people who seriously, they they they had

171
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 4: panic attacks.

172
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,680
Speaker 1: No, I'm not trying to minimize it. I realized I

173
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: have weird reactions to things, probably by him. I do

174
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: the show. I know, I thought I wanted to. I've

175
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: always been fascinated by nature and weather and earthquakes and

176
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: just anything. So I've always wanted I wanted to see

177
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: a tornado up close. It's that kind of thing. I'd

178
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 1: probably be one of those guys chasing tornadoes if I

179
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: grew up in Oklahoma. Get in the car and see

180
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: how close I could get. You know, I'm fascinated by

181
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: guys who fly planes inside hurricanes. Yeah, when I see

182
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 1: those kinds of documentaries.

183
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're very different.

184
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, notice that all right? When we come back, Gavin Newsom,

185
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 1: here's a sign that he's another sign he's running for

186
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: president because he's decided to block the tackle football band.

187
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,079
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that next, so your your kids can

188
00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: play tackle football. Still in the Freestate, California, Debamar is

189
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 1: live in the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.

190
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 7: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI Am

191
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 7: six forty.

192
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom is now, I think the political term they

193
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: call they use is pivoting, is pivoting away from some

194
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: of his invasive nanny state, left wing progressive I want

195
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: to control your life policies. The idiots in this legislature,

196
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: all these progressive fools, as if they haven't had enough

197
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: bad ideas that have wrecked the state, they wanted to

198
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:45,199
Speaker 1: get rid of tackle football, tackle football for kids age

199
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: twelve and under, and they were hell bent on rushing

200
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: this through the legislature. Shockingly, that seems to be the

201
00:10:53,840 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: most important thing on their plate right now all the

202
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: Remember last year, how long did we have to fight

203
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 1: to get the legislature to pass that sex trafficking bill

204
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: for underage girls, to turn that into a felony that sticks.

205
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 1: Remember that whole battle that went on for months, actually

206
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: I think years. I think the legislator who wrote the

207
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: bill originally was pushing it three years ago. So for

208
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 1: three years there was this life and death battle so

209
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 1: that young girls can't be sexually trafficked in California without

210
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: a felony being charged. That gave you real prison time.

211
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 1: But Benning tackle football for little kids, Wow, that was

212
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 1: on the express train. So it looked like it was

213
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: going to head to Newsom's decks a desk very quickly,

214
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: and Newsom released a statement saying, I am deeply concerned

215
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 1: about the health and safety of our young athletes, but

216
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,319
Speaker 1: an outright ben is not the answer. My administration will

217
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: work with the legislature and the bills offer to strengthen

218
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 1: safety and youth football while ensuring parents have the freedom

219
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: to decide which sports are most appropriate for their children. Well,

220
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:14,599
Speaker 1: I'd like to hear him say that. I want to

221
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 1: hear those words come out of his mouth, not just

222
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 1: in a statement, while ensuring parents have the freedom to

223
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: decide what there's no such thing anymore in California. The

224
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 1: freedom to decide. Yeah, right, But apparently Fox News was

225
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: going to run a segment the next day featuring a

226
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 1: young a longtime youth football coach who is the main

227
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 1: opponent of this bill and also a Democratic strategist in

228
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, pointed out that football is the number one

229
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 1: thing on TV. It's an economic driver across our economy

230
00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 1: for advertising dollars and teams and athletes and coaches. This

231
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 1: is going to make California conform to the stereotype that

232
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: everyone wants to have. So their political strategists were saying,

233
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: we're saying, don't do this because the country loves football.

234
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 1: Moms and dads love their kids playing football, and they're

235
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: just they're just not parents. Are not the nervous ninnies

236
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 1: that the media that the media is, the media is

237
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 1: made up of. Real They're they're like the worst kind

238
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: of helicopter parents, except they're not my parents. They're not

239
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 1: my kids parents. They're media people trying to They're progressive,

240
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,719
Speaker 1: they're left wing, and by their very nature they want

241
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 1: to interfere in people's freedoms and their private decisions. And

242
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,439
Speaker 1: they've always got to study. They've always got an excuse.

243
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: There's always some kind of injury. They want to prevent, right,

244
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,439
Speaker 1: They want to control what you eat, what you drink,

245
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: how much you eat, how much you drink. I think

246
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 1: you know, you have all these bells going off in

247
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: your car every thirty seconds. I don't know about your car,

248
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 1: but my car just will not shut up. There is

249
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 1: constant warnings because I'm sure they want me to live, right,

250
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,200
Speaker 1: I'm sure they really care whether I live or die

251
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: in an accident. No, it's it's the control freak aspect

252
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: of government, and it's it's completely out of control. It's

253
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 1: insane here in California. The the UH and also some

254
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: of the legislators started pointing out that you know, all right.

255
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 1: For example, UH Daniel Robinson as a coach with the

256
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: Sacramento Youth Football and he was part of the protest,

257
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: and he said that football provides a safe and structured

258
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: environment for kids, and why should the government choose what

259
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 1: sport a kid plays? And one one one black legislator

260
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: said football is really good for a lot of black

261
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 1: kids who need something to do after school. And you know,

262
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: sports is a great way for young men to get

263
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: out all their excess energy and aggression in a controlled way.

264
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: And so why are you going to take these kids

265
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: because they've done studies and boys and girls who are

266
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 1: regularly in sports and are practicing every afternoon are much

267
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 1: less involved with all the bad stuff, much less likely

268
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: to be involved in crime, get arrested, much less likely

269
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: to get involved in drugs, alcohol, early sex, pregnancy, you

270
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 1: name it. And it just makes sense if you're if

271
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 1: you know, three hours in the afternoon, which is when

272
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 1: most of the trouble happens because parents aren't always home

273
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 1: from work yet and if the kids have too much

274
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: free time, especially during that time periods, that's when a

275
00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: lot of trouble happens. And one the co founder of

276
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: the California Youth Football Association, Steve Famiano, said it was

277
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: all over national news. I think it puts a black

278
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: guye on our state. We're kicking off the twenty twenty

279
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: four legislative year with this. I think a lot of us,

280
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 1: as California's were embarrassed. Finally, finally people got embarrassed. Finally.

281
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: Do you know what the California approval rate is around

282
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 1: the country. You know, they test out states and polling.

283
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: You know, only forty four percent of the country has

284
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 1: a positive viewpoint of California. Because all the stuff that

285
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: we talk about every day here is broadcast nationally in

286
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 1: all the news, and what we look like the biggest,

287
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 1: most dangerous, most intrusive joke in the entire nation because

288
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: they see all the videos of the smash and grab

289
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: robberies and all the homeless people dying in the streets,

290
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: and the drug addiction, and that the felons are running loose.

291
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: And here's the first legislative story of the You're out

292
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 1: of California and they want to keep little kids from

293
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:07,360
Speaker 1: playing tackle football in the afternoon. Well knew some backed

294
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,719
Speaker 1: away from it because you can't run for president. Can

295
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: you imagine in the Midwest and the South running for president,

296
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 1: you're banning football.

297
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 7: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM

298
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:20,119
Speaker 7: six forty.

299
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,640
Speaker 1: I had something to follow up on. Oh oh yeah, yeah.

300
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: We were talking about Newsom backing away from banning tackle football.

301
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,439
Speaker 1: One guy who made a great point Daniel Robinson, a

302
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 1: coach with Sacramento Youth Football. Well I mentioned him before

303
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: that he says the government shouldn't be choosing what sport

304
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: a kid plays. Somebody else named Jim Cooper. He's the

305
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:49,159
Speaker 1: current Sacramento sheriff, and he wrote a law back in

306
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen called the California Youth Football Act, which created

307
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: safety requirements for tackle leagues. Coaches had to get extra training,

308
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 1: medical professionals have to be at a game, and the

309
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 1: amount of full contact practices is limited. Now that's a

310
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:09,719
Speaker 1: reasonable thing to do. Cooper, who's now a Sacramento of sheriff,

311
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 1: says football comes into more scrutiny than other sports such

312
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 1: as soccer or lacrosse because quote, those folks that play

313
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: those sports live in affluent communities, he said, kids of color,

314
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:28,119
Speaker 1: this is who you're putting at a distinct disadvantage because

315
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: football is predominantly played in the cities by black youths.

316
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,679
Speaker 1: And so he noticed that the restriction was going to

317
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 1: be on a sport that young black students play, but

318
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: the sports that mostly whites tend to play, soccer and lacrosse,

319
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 1: which could be just as dangerous. Like never you mentioned

320
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 1: you didn't want your son, right, Why.

321
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,679
Speaker 5: Don't want him head buddy playing soccer?

322
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 1: Right? And that? And got I remember seeing a special

323
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: on NBC years ago about a girl who had headbutted

324
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: once too many times and she had some kind of

325
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: permanent brainswah, and she was locked in her room in

326
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,920
Speaker 1: the dark because she couldn't process light anymore. The light

327
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 1: made her headachey and crazy every time. She every time

328
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,160
Speaker 1: she wanted to live. And I don't know what ever

329
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 1: happened to her. You know, they'd been following her for

330
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 1: a year at a time and it wasn't getting any better.

331
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 1: All right, Moving on, and you may have seen yesterday

332
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 1: about the guy who was tossed from his RV. It

333
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 1: turns out this guy has worked for ESPN. He's been

334
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 1: a sportscaster, and he and his wife bought an RV

335
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 1: and they were coming back from a trip. They live

336
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 1: in a real house. But you remember, the car was

337
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 1: grinding up against the divider and suddenly he was ejected.

338
00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 1: Dash cams on other cars caught what happened, and he

339
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 1: is tossed over the divider and starts rolling on the freeway.

340
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 1: Here is a report that explains everything from KTLA five

341
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: reporter Carlos Sacido.

342
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was divine intervention.

343
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 6: That's the only explanation. Cordel Patrick Hasford being alive as

344
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,880
Speaker 6: he lays in his hospital bed with scrapes and bruises.

345
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 6: Dash can video shows the moments after Cordell was ejected

346
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 6: from his RV Monday morning. The former ESPN sportscaster was

347
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 6: on his way home to Valencia when his wife fell

348
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:31,479
Speaker 6: asleep behind the wheel.

349
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 2: I just unbuckled my seat belt. It was only unbuckled

350
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 2: for five seconds. I noticed my wife had dozed off.

351
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 2: So instead of going straight down the fourteen, we are

352
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 2: headed toward the median and I tried to grab a

353
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 2: steering wheel. But before I could grab a steering wheel,

354
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 2: we already had impact.

355
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 6: The impact threw him out the driver's side window. He

356
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 6: flew over the divider onto a busy fourteen freeway.

357
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 1: In the New Hall area.

358
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 6: He was tossed one hundred and seventy feet as the

359
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 6: RV was going roughly sixty miles an hour.

360
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 2: All I'm thinking about, I'm gonna rea to get hit

361
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 2: by a car. I'm on a freeway. I'm on one

362
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 2: of the busiest freeways in La County. So what's going

363
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 2: through my mind is I'll be dead shortly.

364
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 6: In the video we see as the white SUV swerves

365
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 6: out of the way to avoid hitting him.

366
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 2: I just struck myself and then I leaned up my

367
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,640
Speaker 2: back against the media until help could come.

368
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,119
Speaker 1: And help came pretty quick. Good Samaritans.

369
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 6: Good Samaritans like Alf Smithy, who pulled.

370
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 8: Over I noticed the guy's laying in the road still.

371
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,679
Speaker 8: I was just trying to kind of keep cars away

372
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 8: from him. He was all the way there. That was

373
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 8: the shocking part. Like I asked him his name, I

374
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,439
Speaker 8: asked them all kinds of stuff. But he was all

375
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 8: the way there, Like he knew he broke his arm,

376
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:41,160
Speaker 8: he knew he broke his leg.

377
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 6: Cordell has road rash covering sixty percent of his body,

378
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 6: multiple broken bones, and seventeen stitches.

379
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 1: His biggest takeaway.

380
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,239
Speaker 2: If you didn't think there were a higher power before this,

381
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 2: something is wrong with you, because there is. And I

382
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 2: am a living witness, and I've got a living testimony

383
00:21:58,600 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 2: to tell.

384
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 6: And Somehowdell's wife was not injured. They also have a dog,

385
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 6: of beagle, who survived the crash. Now, as for the RV,

386
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 6: it was completely totaled. Cordell says that his RV days

387
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 6: are probably over.

388
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 1: So the wife was fine, the dog was fine. He

389
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: takes the seat belt off for five seconds and gets

390
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 1: shot out the side window over the divider into oncoming traffic.

391
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 5: He is so lucky.

392
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: Did you see there was a white vehicle that swerved

393
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 1: around him, came this close to running him over.

394
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 4: I saw an interview with him on TV, saying it

395
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:36,919
Speaker 4: was divine intervention.

396
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 5: I mean, that's what he said. I mean because he

397
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 5: should have been.

398
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: Dead one hundred and seventy feet crazy onto the fourteen

399
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 1: freeway five seconds he takes off his seat belt. Well,

400
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: it's just, of course, why is the wife falling asleep?

401
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 5: She was tired, he was tired of hearing him yeap

402
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:57,880
Speaker 5: in all day long.

403
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 1: Maybe she falls asleep. He gets it, he's the one

404
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:07,919
Speaker 1: rolling down the freeway. Yeah, well I feel same to

405
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: it on purpose.

406
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,360
Speaker 5: I mean, my gosh, can you imagine how she feels?

407
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:13,679
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know.

408
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:17,879
Speaker 4: Well, imagine how would you feel if you fell asleep

409
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,120
Speaker 4: at the wheel and your wife was injured like that?

410
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 1: Oh no, it happened the other way around. I would

411
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: I would be ejected from the car. Can I matither

412
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: of you fallen asleep at the wheel? No? Yes, I

413
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 1: used to fall asleep. I have a scary story from

414
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 1: when I was really young. Oh god, Oh, I don't

415
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 1: think I've ever told anybody, because it's like one of

416
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:40,880
Speaker 1: those stories you don't want to tell people.

417
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would be embarrassed, but I was.

418
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 1: I worked when I was about twenty years old. I

419
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 1: worked at a newspaper and there was a woman and

420
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,119
Speaker 1: she was much older than me, but she invited me

421
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 1: to come with her family on a vacation in North Carolina,

422
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:55,919
Speaker 1: because she had a son and a daughter my age.

423
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: And I said, oh sure. You know, it was a

424
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 1: beach vacation in North Carolina, and we were driving back

425
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: from there to New Jersey, where we all lived, and

426
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,159
Speaker 1: they gave me the night slot to drive, and I

427
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 1: fell asleep, and when I woke up, we were headed

428
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 1: right to a fork in the road. There was like

429
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:20,119
Speaker 1: a cement abutment, a metal sign, and one of those

430
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,919
Speaker 1: orange well it was. It was a metal post and

431
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 1: an orange sign on top, which was telling you that

432
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:30,919
Speaker 1: the road is splitting. And I was just about to

433
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: hit that, and I swerved, and everybody else was asleep,

434
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 1: and I swerved at the last second and missed. I

435
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 1: might have driven over the abutment, because I remember the

436
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,159
Speaker 1: car was shaking and rumbling, but I missed the metal

437
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 1: post and missed the sign.

438
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 4: And it wasn't your time, John, It wasn't the time

439
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:50,160
Speaker 4: for the exit back.

440
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 1: You know. It was it was middle of the night.

441
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:55,880
Speaker 1: Somebody else drove the rest of the life.

442
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 5: Do you think.

443
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 1: That's one of those things that that that sits in

444
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 1: your mind for the rest of your life, that moment.

445
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 5: And you love to drive you so that hasn't happened again?

446
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 6: Right?

447
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 1: No?

448
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 5: What?

449
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:12,880
Speaker 1: I fall asleep a lot, then.

450
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 5: Don't you think you should change things? I mean, that's

451
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 5: really cord.

452
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,439
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do. I fall asleep driving

453
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 1: home sunflower seeds? Why did why sunflower seeds? Eat sunflower

454
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,120
Speaker 1: seeds while you're driving. It'll keep you awake.

455
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 5: Then knowing John, he'll choke on them.

456
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 1: I mean I have to have to go vegan to

457
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:34,360
Speaker 1: stay away. Uh? Debor Mark? Oh oh, we'll come back

458
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,440
Speaker 1: all right. Two parts coming up about the COVID virus.

459
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 1: The Chinese have invented a one fatal update of the

460
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 1: COVID virus. I am not making this up. After two

461
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: o'clock we're going to have Brian Enton from news Station

462
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,879
Speaker 1: the new cable news network who's got the story. And

463
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,640
Speaker 1: also the Wall Street Journal has a piece today that

464
00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:00,159
Speaker 1: that famous Chinese lab in Muhan, well they mapped the

465
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 1: deadly virus for two weeks before the Chinese Communist Party

466
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 1: told the whole world about it. This is back in

467
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 1: December twenty nineteen. I'm telling you there's something has been

468
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,640
Speaker 1: going on here with the Chinese Communist Party and they

469
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 1: have a new product now one hundred percent fatal according

470
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 1: to their early research. Why are they doing this? Why

471
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 1: are they making variants and then testing them and finding

472
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: out they can kill us? All that's next.

473
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 7: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI Am

474
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:35,120
Speaker 7: six forty.

475
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 1: On the radio one and four after four o'clock John

476
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 1: Cobelt's show on Command on Command on demand on the

477
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:44,160
Speaker 1: ipart act.

478
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 5: Will you command people to tune you.

479
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: In on demand something this week? I'm just a beat

480
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 1: off more so than ever. My words are coming out

481
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 1: in reverse. And what's going on?

482
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 3: I don't knowne to the doctor lately. There's gotten your

483
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 3: I think I need a brain I need a brain scan.

484
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 3: All right, here, I'm going to do one story which

485
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 3: will lead into story number two after Deborah's news. Story

486
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,200
Speaker 3: number two is we're going to be talking with Brian Entin.

487
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 3: He's the senior national correspondent with News Nation. This is

488
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 3: the latest hottest cable news network, and he's got a

489
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 3: story about China researching a one hundred percent one hundred

490
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:42,960
Speaker 3: percent deadly COVID mutation. They're studying this well, I don't

491
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 3: know why. I don't know why they're doing this. It's

492
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 3: called g x P two v First, they humanized the

493
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 3: brains of mice. The brains were genetically engineered to reflect

494
00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 3: the genetic makeup similar in people.

495
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 1: And they have found out that well, they injected the

496
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen into eight mice and found that they all

497
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 1: died real fast, and it was a really a gruesome

498
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 1: death too. It was no fun. So we'll talk about

499
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: that with Brian Innton coming up now. First story, though,

500
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 1: Chinese researchers, according to the Wall Street Journal, have isolated

501
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: and mapped the Well. They isolated and mapped the original

502
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 1: COVID virus in late December twenty nineteen. That was two

503
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 1: weeks before the Chinese Communist Party admitted to the world

504
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: that this deadly virus existed. This is from Congressional Investigators.

505
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 1: Documents from the US Department of Health and Human Services

506
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,960
Speaker 1: obtained by a House committee reviewed by The Wall Street

507
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 1: Journal show that a Chinese researcher in Beijing uploaded a

508
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: nearly complete seaquence of the virus's structure to the US

509
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 1: government run database December twenty eighth, twenty nineteen. Chinese officials

510
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: at that time were still publicly describing the virus as

511
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 1: a viral pneumonia of unknown cause. They had yet to

512
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:23,719
Speaker 1: close that Hunan seafood wholesale market, which in that area

513
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:28,320
Speaker 1: there was the initial COVID nineteen outbreak, and that's why

514
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 1: they gave them a cover story to distract people from

515
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 1: the Wuhan lab. But China already knew what was going on.

516
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 1: They did not share the virus's genetic sequence with the

517
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 1: World Health Organization until January eleventh, twenty twenty, so that

518
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: was a full fourteen days later. This is not about

519
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 1: whether the COVID virus came from an animal or a

520
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 1: lab leak. But what it tells you as that we

521
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 1: lost two weeks of figuring out what to do and

522
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 1: how to mitigate things. In retrospect, they should have told

523
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 1: us immediately, and they should have shut down plane traffic

524
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 1: from China that day. And remember when Trump suggested and

525
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: implemented the travel band, he was called all kinds of

526
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 1: names racist. The Chinese Communist Party is evil. They are

527
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,959
Speaker 1: that is not a good organization in the world, and

528
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 1: it's being proven time and time again. With those extra

529
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: two weeks, the world medical community could have figured out

530
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: earlier how COVID nineteen spread and get on, get on offense,

531
00:30:53,360 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 1: and everybody was blindsided. And to this day, nobody in

532
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,040
Speaker 1: the Chinese Communist Party has owned up to this and

533
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 1: explained it. It's just leaked out in these documents when

534
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 1: they finally published. When the government published the sequence on

535
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 1: January twelfth, twenty twenty, it was dearly identical to the

536
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: sequence that was originally uploaded on December the twenty eighth.

537
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:25,840
Speaker 1: And now we come, and this is what we're going

538
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 1: to get into. After Debra's news, the new strain, the

539
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 1: new product, g x P two V and again they

540
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 1: injected this new strain into mice and they all died

541
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 1: within eight days. And what keeps this from whatever caused

542
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 1: the virus to escape from the Wuhan lab the first time?

543
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: What's going to keep this virus or any one of

544
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 1: a thousand other things they're working on from escaping. I mean,

545
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: have they anybody believe that they've changed their security and

546
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 1: safety requirements in China since this happened because the precautions

547
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 1: weren't being followed. All that strictly the first time back

548
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, so we'll get into this coming up

549
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 1: on The John Cobalt Show. Depbor Mark is live in
