1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:00,880 Speaker 1: Can't. 2 00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,080 Speaker 2: I am six forty. 3 00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,319 Speaker 1: You're listening to the John Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio 4 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 1: app John Cobelt Show. We're on every day from one 5 00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:11,320 Speaker 1: to four after four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand 6 00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: the podcast version, and that'll be posted after four. Like 7 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 1: I said, New York Post has a story that the 8 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:26,119 Speaker 1: Secret Service has suspended two uniformed female officers who ended 9 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: up in a fight on camera outside Barack Obama's home. 10 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,239 Speaker 1: One of the women grabbed your radio and threatened to 11 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 1: whoop this girl's ass, and there's video showing the two 12 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: punching each other. Eric, see if there's the lead story 13 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: of the post. See there's any good audio there already 14 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 1: on it, already on it. All right, there's anything good, 15 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: we'll play it for you. I think Secret Service hiring 16 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: standards took a hit sometime in the last few years. 17 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: All right, Southwest Airlines thirty five dollars for a checked 18 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 1: bag and goes up from there. 19 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 3: Everybody's upset. 20 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 1: There's a lot of changes coming to Southwest, which used 21 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: to be the cool, easy, cheap airline, the funny airline. 22 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: People are not happy. Alex Stone, ABC News, what's going 23 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 1: on here? 24 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:19,119 Speaker 2: John, how you doing. 25 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,319 Speaker 1: You heard Deborah talk about a moment ago, but giving 26 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,479 Speaker 1: a little more on it, the yeah, this is tomorrow 27 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 1: what begins their move to become just like any other 28 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: airline that they had said. They're going to go assigned 29 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: seating down the line, probably in the next couple of months. 30 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 1: They're going to have an extra leg room upgrade area. 31 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,040 Speaker 1: Over the next year or so, they've got to retrofit 32 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 1: all of their planes to put the extra leg room 33 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: area into the front. But beginning tomorrow is going to 34 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: be the first part of this. Than any new bookings 35 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: from here on out, if you make a booking after 36 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: midnight tonight, bags will no longer be free. Now, if 37 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: you already booked your flight a couple of months ago, 38 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: or you did it today, or you did it yesterday, 39 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: your bags are going to be free. But any kings 40 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: from here on they will no longer be free. And 41 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: today they announced to those dollar figures that you mentioned, 42 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: thirty five dollars for a first bag, forty five for 43 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: a second bag. That's a big jump from two bags 44 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,799 Speaker 1: fly free. If you've got a Southwest credit card, you'll 45 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 1: get one bag for free. If you're a list, you'll 46 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: get one bag. A lists preferred the more elite level 47 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: of the frequent flyer program than you get two bags. 48 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 2: But executives are saying they got to do this. 49 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: This is everything that Southwest was known for now going away, 50 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: and executives telling investors this. 51 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 3: We've admitted that we were going to a different via proposition. 52 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: We have a more segmented offering where customers can. 53 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 3: Pay more to get more and that would lead to. 54 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 4: The revenue production would be sufficient to a turner back 55 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:42,119 Speaker 4: to previous. 56 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 3: Levels of prosperity. 57 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 1: Return back to previous levels of prosperity because Southwest coming 58 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: out of the pandemic, they have been hurting, and that 59 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: customer preferences and choices have changed during the pandemic. Since 60 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: a pandemic, people are now choosing to pay more to 61 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: get first class, to get better service. They've gone to Delta, 62 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: They've gone to Unine, even United. They've been upping their 63 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: first class game that they announced last week. Polaris Studios 64 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: they call them, which will have doors on them, little 65 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,080 Speaker 1: rooms that you'll be able to book. That people are 66 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: showing they want to spend that money. Delta makes a 67 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: big chunk of their revenue off of the higher end customers. 68 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: So Southwest is trying to get in on that. They 69 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 1: think by adding in bag fees that they will make 70 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: about one point five billion dollars a year. But the 71 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: question now being if they're no longer special, you know, 72 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: the one airline that is doing it a different way, 73 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: will people continue to go to them. This guy, he's 74 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: got a bunch of kids. He says he's gonna have 75 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: to pay on some airline. He doesn't know which one 76 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: it's gonna be. 77 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 5: We have to check, yeah, we have to check it. 78 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 5: So we have we have a lot of stuff, especially 79 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 5: with the kids. 80 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: And Southwest even says John that they could lose one 81 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: point eight billion dollars in the first year in business 82 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: from those who choose to go to a United or 83 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: a Delta. 84 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: If you're gonna pay for bags either way, that maybe. 85 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: You go to where you're gonna have a TV screen 86 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: in front of you and you're gonna have higher speed 87 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: WiFi and food on. Can I ask a question, sir, 88 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,839 Speaker 1: if if, if this is going to cost them one 89 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: point eight billion dollars and they're only making one point 90 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: six billion by charging the baggage fees, that sounds like 91 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: a bad business deal for Southwest does, but but they 92 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 1: they think long term it'll be advantageous for Southwest. They 93 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: will lose, they'll see about one point eight billion go away, 94 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 1: but then long term more people will come in and 95 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 1: they'll be making one point five billion every year. They 96 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: see the one point eight billion as kind of one 97 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: big chunk of people who walk away from the airline, 98 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 1: and and then over time that they will make that upright. 99 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 1: Second question, you said that their philosophy is pay more, 100 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: get more. I get that philosophy. What's the get more 101 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: now that you're paying? Now? May you got two bags 102 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 1: and it's dollars, yeah, exactly, getting for the eighty dollars. Yeah. Well, 103 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 1: I think what they're trying to say is forget about 104 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: the bag fees and the pay more, get more, get 105 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: more leg room, get an assigned seat, get a slightly 106 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: you know, different service on board. Well here, listen the 107 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 1: CEO he also says this is what people want, but 108 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 1: he doesn't mention the bag fees. And we're going to 109 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 1: continue to grow more and more points of strength, and 110 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: of course we're going to continue to constantly understand what 111 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: our customers want. 112 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 3: That's why we're moving to a signed seating. That's why 113 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 3: we're adding extra leg room, no batcheating, to move to 114 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 3: our customers needs and meet their needs. 115 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know this is what our customers want, 116 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: but kind of ignore the back of the cook is 117 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 1: the best. I just love how these guys tie themselves 118 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: into knots. Where do they learn to talk like that? 119 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: Is there some kind of corporate executive class yo school 120 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: and they go to nonsense? Yeah, there's got to be 121 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: some PR person there saying it. Just keep talking about 122 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: this is everything they want, but don't mention the bag piece. Yeah. 123 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: The thing is that after just years of investor calls, 124 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: they have been asked about bags fly free and for many, 125 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: many years executive at Southwest have said, no, we. 126 00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 2: Will never get rid of that. 127 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 1: That this is is that we have more people coming 128 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 1: to us and we make more money off of it 129 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: because of that promotion bags fly Free than we would 130 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 1: ever make by charging. Well, that is that's changing now 131 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: and Spirit is going more in a mainline airline style. 132 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: Frontier is doing things as well that the customer base 133 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: isn't going to low cost and ultra low cost of 134 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 1: getting a bare basic product for little money. That they're 135 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: saying Hey, look, I want a more comfortable seat. I 136 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 1: want food on board, I want real glasses on board. 137 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: I want better entertainment. I want faster internet. And Southwest 138 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 1: says they've got to keep up one of those airlines 139 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: you mentioned. I won't say who to stay out of 140 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 1: a lawsuit. Does the airline ever get tired that they're 141 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: so cheap? They routinely have riots on board. Well, I'm 142 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: guessing that's not going to be United American Delta, Frontier, 143 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: maybe Frontick Southwest that's on you. I'm guessing you're talking 144 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 1: one that might be yellow. It looks like a big 145 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,479 Speaker 1: school bus when I see Atlanta, US and I just 146 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 1: go by what I see on Twitter, you know, Yeah, 147 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 1: when I see Riot and I'm playing it's. 148 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 2: Always there are a lot of videos that are out there. Yeah, 149 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 2: but they too. 150 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: They you know, they tried to merger and it failed, 151 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: and with Jed Blue and then they they've had bankruptcy 152 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: issues that they're trying to figure out how they're going 153 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: to come around and become more of a mainline airline 154 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: as well. This was the fad thirty years ago as airlines. 155 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: This is what people wanted. They loved the you know, 156 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: just buy a last minute cheap ticket, get on board, 157 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: no frills, no no upgrades. That's not what the consumer 158 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: wants anymore. And we'll see long term though, when Southwest 159 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: is not special with what they've got, do people go 160 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: elsewhere or do they continue to say they like the 161 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: the ease of Southwest, how easy it is at Burbank 162 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: or you know at John Wayne, we just get on 163 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: board and go and the culture and the atmosphere on board. 164 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: Or do they say, if I'm going to spend the 165 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: same amount of money and get charged the same amount 166 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: and getting a signed seat, I'll just go to unitedor 167 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,120 Speaker 1: or Delta American. All right, Alex Stunk, thank you, thank 168 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: you very much, you got it. Thanks job, Alex Stone. 169 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: ABC News. When we returned, We've got you know, some audio. 170 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: You may have heard it during Debra's news.

When he turned around, 231 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: he realized everybody could see him at the top of 232 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: the stairs, and he just straightened up and waved and smiled. 233 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,839 Speaker 1: It's all good. Nothing you see here, just having a 234 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 1: little horse play.

Okay, maybe 343 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:51,959 Speaker 1: maybe the best is a B minus. 344 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 3: Okay, it's all again. 345 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 4: You guys were insinuating that it was Eric's fault. I 346 00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 4: think John, what you were just saying, did. 347 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 1: Somebody just sign an Ironclade contract? I could get this 348 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: at home and I do all right? Uh, Tony, Tony Vallar. 349 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: You know, I always have mixed feelings about Tony Vallar 350 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: because he's running for governor and he's he's a weasel 351 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 1: and a greasy snake. 352 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 3: But he always comes through with lots of material. 353 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: You know, we we have so many great audio clips 354 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: that we rarely play now because he's hardly in the news, 355 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: and uh, it would be it would be wonderful to 356 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: have him running again, just so we could because you know, 357 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 1: he he just invariably does and says stupid things. Now, 358 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: I don't know a lot of it was based on 359 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 1: his his womanizing, his libido. I like that, Yeah, his 360 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 1: lack of control, and and maybe that's tamp down now 361 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 1: he's in his seventies. I don't know if he's on uh, 362 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: on those little blue pills that you are the women 363 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 1: at guys that you like to sell. 364 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 4: But I don't sell those anymore. 365 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: John, I think that commercial is running forever somewhere I 366 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: believe in me maybe an Eastern Europe or anyway. He's 367 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: running for governor and he's trying to be the not progressive, 368 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: woke candidate and he you know how Gavin Newsom has 369 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 1: rejected some of his old positions, the way Kamala Harris 370 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 1: rejected some of her old positions when she ran for president. Well, 371 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: that group is getting crowded because now the Oregosa is, 372 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: as they say, pivoting away from his climate positions. 373 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 3: Now of these running for. 374 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 4: Governor, we's had time to process things he had. 375 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: He's had about what was when was he at office, 376 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: like twenty thirteen? I think yeah, yeah, I think so yeah, 377 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,439 Speaker 1: So he's had twelve years to process. So he's processed 378 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 1: out yeah, and he's in his seventies and this is 379 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 1: kind of like his last swing at anything. And so 380 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: now he's all in favor of burning gas and oil. 381 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: And the La Times discovered that in the last few 382 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: years he has taken more than one million dollars in 383 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: campaign contributions from the oil industry. In fact, since entering 384 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 1: the race, he's accepted one hundred and seventy six thousand 385 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 1: dollars from oil industry donors. So what's the other eight 386 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,160 Speaker 1: hundred thousand when he wasn't running, What was that for? 387 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 2: Did I read this right? Yeah? 388 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: It says here he accepted more than a million in 389 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: campaign contributions from oil companies. 390 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 3: Oh oh, over three decades in public life. Fantastic. 391 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: But then he renounced taking money for a while, and 392 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 1: now he's back to looting the oil donors. And he's 393 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 1: upset that the refineries are closing. Valero is closing up 394 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 1: in the Bay Area, Phillip sixty six is closing down 395 00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: here in Los Angeles, and now they are telling people that, 396 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: you know, gas prices are going to increase. He says 397 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,680 Speaker 1: these policies are absurd. He says the policies are leading 398 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 1: to the refineries clothes. This ties into the USC professor 399 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: who says we're going to be paying eight fifty a 400 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 1: gallon for gas. You see, nobody's denying that this is coming. 401 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 1: If you notice, other than Newsome, well even he didn't 402 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: deny it. They just tried to trash the USC professor. 403 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 1: I'm not fighting for refineries, he said, I'm fighting for 404 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: the people who pay for gas in this state. And 405 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 1: he says the party is losing working people, particularly working 406 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: people who don't have a college education. 407 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 3: Why are we losing them? 408 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: The cost of living, the cost of gas, the cost 409 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: of utilities, the cost of groceries. Yeah, that's why Los 410 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,919 Speaker 1: Angeles is number one in the nation. People leaving, people 411 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: moving out, and the cost of living is considered the 412 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: number one reason. Well that's what he's talking about. So 413 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 1: now we're in like the the alternate universe where Tony 414 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: Vallar is suddenly making sense, and it shows you how 415 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: insane all the other candidates are. When when he's now 416 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 1: at least pretending to be a normal case, you know, 417 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,120 Speaker 1: he's a snake and a double talker. He's like Newsom, right, 418 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 1: he was Newsome before there was a Newsom. Now listen 419 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: to the people in the UH, in the climate industry, well, 420 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 1: the climate political industry. There's a guy named R. L. 421 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 2: Miller. 422 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: He's chairman of the party's even environmental caucus, and he 423 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: is so upset with all the money via Gosa has 424 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: gotten from the oil industry. I'm honestly shocked at just 425 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: how bad it is, he says. Via Re Gohosa signed 426 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 1: a pledge when he ran for governor in twenty eighteen, 427 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 1: promised not to take money from oil companies, and then 428 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: he started taking money. 429 00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:00,080 Speaker 4: Wait, politicians lie, yeah, they and. 430 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 1: R. L. Miller is a woman. She said, this is 431 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: bear hugging the oil industry. See, the environmental activists think 432 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 1: that when you sign this pledge, it's binding forever. Whatever 433 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: you run for in the future, you have to promise 434 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: not to take money from oil companies. Well, via Goosa 435 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: said he didn't sign it for this campaign. That's Clinton 436 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 1: esque there. All these guys are the same. You know, 437 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:34,120 Speaker 1: Clinton knew some Viragosa. They're all the same. They're all 438 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:38,239 Speaker 1: busy banging people they're not married to, or people who 439 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 1: are married to others. But you know he's right, speaking 440 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 1: of messing around someone you're not married to. When we 441 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 1: go fully into the AI era. You have to be 442 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: careful about your personal secrets.

You know, 519 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: this is one of the headlines that are really see. 520 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: I had noticed in the last few days a sudden 521 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 1: surgeon masks, and so I'm thinking, was there some kind 522 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: of scare story. 523 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 3: That I wasn't aware of. 524 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 1: I wasn't included in on because it was like young 525 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 1: with the last two days, like two really young women 526 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: wearing black masks.

Is this something real? Maybe this is it? 529 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: Maybe this story has been out, I don't know, just 530 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: published today by the Post. But in China and Hong 531 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 1: Kong they had eighty one severe cases in a month, 532 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 1: thirty deaths, mostly adults sixty five and up, so it's 533 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: killing the same demographics. And in mainland China, the number 534 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: of the portion of patients going to the er with 535 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 1: COVID is more than doubled in the last month, and 536 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 1: a portion of people going to the hospital for COVID 537 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: China also doubled. So there's something going on there, and 538 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 1: it's some kind of variant seems to be more transmissible, 539 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 1: And of course people are flying in from Hong Kong 540 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: and China constantly here in Los Angeles. So whether this 541 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 1: is something real or just a hype COVID porn they 542 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: used to call it, I don't know.
