8
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 1: go back to the TikTok story we got Mike Debuski,

9
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:32,200
Speaker 1: ABC News Technology reporter. If you haven't heard, the House

10
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: voted overwhelmingly in Washington three point fifty two to sixty five,

11
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 1: demanding that the parent company of TikTok bike dance, which

12
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: is run by the Chinese Communist Party, they have to

13
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: sell TikTok and if they don't, then TikTok will be

14
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: banned and nobody can use it legally in America. It

15
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: blew through the House. Is it going to go anywhere

16
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: in the Senate? Biden already said he'd sign it. So

17
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: to explain the threat and what this bill does and

18
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 1: what its future is, Mike Debuski, ABC News Technology reporter.

19
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 2: Mike, how are you I'm doing well.

20
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 3: Good afternoon, John.

21
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: It is very rare that an issue comes flying out

22
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,559
Speaker 1: of nowhere. I know this has been boiling for a while,

23
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: but suddenly he had a fifty to nothing vote on

24
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: a committee. Now it's three fifty two to sixty five,

25
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: overwhelmingly both parties in agreement. What do they think is

26
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: the threat of TikTok to the US? I got the

27
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: feeling they know something and they haven't told us yet.

28
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 3: Well, so there's two buckets of concern here, John. The

29
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 3: first one is something that we've been talking about with

30
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 3: regards to TikTok for several years now, which is that

31
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 3: the Chinese government could essentially force white Edance, which is

32
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 3: China TikTok's parent company based in China, to essentially share

33
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 3: any American user data that it collects on its users

34
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 3: here in the United States. That is not unique to Byteedance,

35
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 3: or to TikTok, Facebook and Instagram, and really most of

36
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 3: the apps that your phone holds does collect some level

37
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 3: of data on you, whether it be your email address,

38
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: your phone number, sometimes your location tracking, access to your photos,

39
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 3: and what have you. The concern amount lawmakers here is

40
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 3: that the Chinese government could get access to that if

41
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 3: it comes docking on Byteedance's door. There's another bucket of

42
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 3: concern here, John, which has to do with TikTok being

43
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 3: used as a tool of propaganda, that essentially the Chinese

44
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 3: government could leverage TikTok as a means by which to

45
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 3: get pro China messages in front of eyes that it

46
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 3: would otherwise not see. According to TikTok, one hundred and

47
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 3: seventy million people use their platform here in this country,

48
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 3: and that's a pretty broad swath of people that you know,

49
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 3: the Chinese government could get access to if it were

50
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 3: to start to infuse pro China videos or messages into

51
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 3: its app. So it's worth mentioning there's not a ton

52
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 3: of evidence of that specifically happening here just yet, but

53
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 3: given how much energy there has been around this most

54
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 3: recent round of legislation, it's clearly something that lawmakers are

55
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 3: concerned could happen in the future.

56
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 2: Are the reports accurate?

57
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: Was there really a strong outpouring of calls to Congress yesterday?

58
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,239
Speaker 2: I read that some people, yeah, go ahead, I was

59
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 2: going to say.

60
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 3: In fact, TikTok very much pushed back against this legislation

61
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 3: as it really has become a talking point in the

62
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 3: last week or so. In fact, if you logged on

63
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 3: too TikTok late last week, you would be presented with

64
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 3: a message encouraging you to call your local congressman to

65
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 3: complain about the TikTok band. TikTok says that the government

66
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 3: is attempting to strip one hundred and seventy million Americans

67
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 3: of their right to free speech. They also called out

68
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 3: the many businesses and artists and authors and others who

69
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 3: rely upon TikTok to make a living and to make money,

70
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 3: the influencer class as they are known, and as my

71
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 3: colleague Stephen Portnoy, who's been reporting on this from Washington,

72
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 3: has noted, many of these that efor it's from TikTok

73
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 3: appear to have backfired. This effort to create a ground

74
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 3: swell of support for TikTok really has only galvanized lawmakers,

75
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 3: showing them that this app has influence, that it can

76
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 3: mobilize a whole slot of people. How dangerous is that

77
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 3: in the hands of a foreign government. So it's an interesting,

78
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 3: pretty fraught movement for TikTok. But as we alluded to,

79
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 3: a lot of people are on this app and really

80
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 3: make their living office. So I'm taking this tightrope back.

81
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm taking this, you know, to the extreme here.

82
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 1: But do they fear that somehow the Chinese government could

83
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: mobilize American citizens against the US government.

84
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 3: Unclear specifically what the messaging here would be from a

85
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 3: propaganda standpoint. Again, we don't have specific evidence to suggest

86
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 3: that this is happening. So if this were to happen

87
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 3: down the line, who knows what form it could take.

88
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 3: But clearly it is a real concern for these lawmakers.

89
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 3: Then you can imagine given how popular TikTok is here,

90
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 3: you know, that creates in it a certain value among

91
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 3: people who are looking to leverage messages.

92
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 2: That's what's fascinating. It's one hundred and seventy million people.

93
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: There's a lot of businesses, a lot of them young people,

94
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: and normally both parties are terrified of offending any young

95
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: voters because they're so hard to get to begin with.

96
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 1: That's why going out on a limb like this I

97
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: thought was quite quite striking.

98
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 2: Is this What about the Senate? Are they going along

99
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 2: with this?

100
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 3: So the pass in the Senate is a little less clear, John,

101
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 3: This did pass with more than the two thirds majority

102
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 3: that it needed in the House, but there is no

103
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 3: corresponding legislation in the Senate as it stands right now.

104
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 3: Majority Leader Chuck Schumer says does not have plans to

105
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 3: introduce this legislation to that body, at least within the

106
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 3: immediate future, and Congress does have some other things to

107
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 3: consider before it considers this, built budgetary concerns among them.

108
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 3: So there's the potential that this passes the House today

109
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 3: with much hullabaloo, and we talk about it, and then

110
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 3: it kind of just sits to the sidelines for a

111
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 3: few weeks, if not months. The question of whether this

112
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 3: gets to President Biden's desk before the November election, I

113
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 3: think is a fairly open question, or whether this falls

114
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:12,359
Speaker 3: to the lane Congress that comes afterwards, But we just

115
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 3: don't know yet.

116
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 2: But he says he'd sign it, but he's not particularly

117
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 2: pushing it.

118
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 3: He does say he'll sign it if it reaches his desk.

119
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 3: And the particularly complexified factor there, John is that the

120
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 3: White House did just introduce its own TikTok account, So,

121
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 3: you know, kind of a strange moment there for the

122
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 3: Biden administration to say that we're going to ban this

123
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 3: app but we're also there trying to get our message

124
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 3: out via this app. So it's an interesting moment.

125
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,359
Speaker 1: And Trump was against TikTok but is changing his mind.

126
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 3: Yes, Former President Trump is largely who kicks off this

127
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 3: idea of banning TikTok in the first place. Back in

128
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 3: twenty twenty, he signed an executive order looking to do

129
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 3: pretty much this, to ban TikTok in the United States

130
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,919
Speaker 3: or force a divestment of some kind to an American company.

131
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 3: That was done by executive order and was almost imediately

132
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 3: challenged in court, never ended up going anywhere. Just recently

133
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 3: we saw President Trump reverse course, saying that banning TikTok

134
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 3: in the United States would effectively double the business of

135
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 3: TikTok's competitor here Meta, which is formerly Facebook controlled Instagram

136
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 3: and Facebook and WhatsApp and several other apps. And he

137
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 3: calls that company, Facebook a true enemy of the people.

138
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 3: So a reversal from the former president and the current

139
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 3: president on TikTok, but also saying that you would ban

140
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 3: TikTok talk if it reaches his death.

141
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 2: All right, thanks very much, Mike, of course.

142
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 1: Mike Tbuski, he is the ABC News technology reporter when

143
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: we come back. All right, finally get to this. You're

144
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: not going to believe, and I do these for you.

145
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: I uh, we're gonna have. We got new information through

146
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 1: the New York Times what Alaska Airlines was going to

147
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: do with the plane that had the door plug blowout.

148
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,119
Speaker 1: It should not have been flying that day. The plan

149
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: was not to fly it. What happened, we'll tell you

150
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: about that. And we've also got more on the alleged suicide.

151
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: We've got another Boeing plane that's forced to land after

152
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: a hydraulic fluid leak. That's five in seven days. It's

153
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: all ahead.

154
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI Am

Speaker 1: I could last two days. I could do the whole

159
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: show on Boeing and their jets and Alaska Airlines and

160
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: United Airlines. There's so many investigative stories in addition to

161
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 1: the almost daily breaking news that another Boeing plane had

162
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 1: to land on an emergency basis or was grounded for

163
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 1: some reason. But this is a good one here. The

164
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: first one we'll do a couple of these. This is

165
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: New York Times. The door plug blew out of that

166
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: Alaska jet January fifth. On January fourth, the engineers and

167
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:22,079
Speaker 1: technicians at Alaska were so concerned about all the evidence

168
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 1: mounting of a problem they wanted the plane to be

169
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 1: out of service the next evening. The next evening, January fifth,

170
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: that's the evening that the door plug blew. They thought

171
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: it needed investigation and maintenance. But Alaska officials, and this

172
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: is a Boweing seven thirty seven Max nine, decided to

173
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: keep the plane in service. They wanted three more flights

174
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: that day, and the last flight would end that night

175
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 1: in Portland, Oregon. That's where they had one of the

176
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: maintenance facilities. But before the plane could complete those flights

177
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 1: at sixteen thousand feet, the door plug blows out on

178
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 1: the way to Ontario. Now, Donald Wright is the vice

179
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 1: president for maintenance and engineering for Alaska, and he said

180
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 1: that the warning signals indicating problems with the pressurization system.

181
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 1: It was a warning light on the dashboard the way

182
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 1: we have warning lights on our cars. Had come on

183
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: twice in the previous ten days. Now, the pressurization problem

184
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: is what blew out the door plug. And however, according

185
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: to Alaska's protocol, the light has to go on three times.

186
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 5: That's ridiculous. I'm telling you, if it goes one time,

187
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 5: you need to check out that plane and not let

188
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 5: it fly until it's completely checked out.

189
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 1: Three times twice made them nervous, and so they were

190
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: gonna do it, and then somebody said, we get one

191
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: more day.

192
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 2: We got three more flights.

193
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 5: I'd like to know who that person was.

194
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,080
Speaker 1: Alaska has repeatedly said that there's no evidence that the

195
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 1: warning lights were related to the plug blowout, because it

196
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: could have been other things. Here's Max Tidwell, another vice

197
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:13,479
Speaker 1: president for safety and security at Alaska. From my perspective

198
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: as the safety guy, looking at all the data, all

199
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: the leading indicators, there was nothing that would drive me

200
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: to make a different decision.

201
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 2: Really, this is why these things happened.

202
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 5: And he hasn't been fired.

203
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 2: No, you see.

204
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 5: I'm obsessed with that about how these people are all

205
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 5: still working.

206
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 2: It is fascinating, it really is.

207
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,479
Speaker 1: In addition to the there was other evidence accumulating.

208
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 2: In addition to the flashing lights.

209
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 1: Investigators said the door plug had been gradually sliding upward.

210
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 1: The airline said its visual inspection in the days leading

211
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 1: up to the blowout, though they say it didn't reveal

212
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 1: any movement of the plug. However, the investigators say, no.

213
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:55,959
Speaker 2: It was.

214
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 1: It was going upwards. And remember it didn't have bolts

215
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: on it, which is why it was moving upwards. It

216
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 1: was slowly getting out of position. Now this will get

217
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 1: to you. Mark lynde Quist is a lawyer representing some

218
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: of the passengers suing, and in his court filing, he

219
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: said passengers on a previous flight heard a whistling sound

220
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 1: coming from the area of the door plug. They told

221
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: the flight attendant, who told the pilots. Alaska claims it

222
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:28,439
Speaker 1: can't find any record of a report of whistling coming

223
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:33,119
Speaker 1: from the plane, so you've got more than one passenger

224
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 1: plural passengers told the flight attendant who told the pilot.

225
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 1: Nobody wrote it down, which is the problem with Boeing.

226
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 1: Nobody wrote down the door of the bolt problem. And

227
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: lind Quist said, when jurors find out that Alaska and

228
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: Boeing had been cautioned by engineers to ground the plane

229
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,679
Speaker 1: and they put it in the rotation instead, jurors will

230
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: be more than mystified, they'll be angry.

231
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,200
Speaker 5: You know what I think should happen those people that

232
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 5: make those decisions. We should put them on a plane

233
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 5: and have a door plug fall off, no doors, have

234
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 5: no doors, and see how they like it.

235
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 2: Now, listen to this.

236
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: A week before the blowout, they had taken the plane

237
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: out of service on December thirty first because there was

238
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: an issue with the front passenger entry and the exit door,

239
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 1: so they had problems with the other doors. Remember this

240
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: is a new plane they just put together a couple

241
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: months earlier. Records show the plane resumed service on January second,

242
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 1: but on January third, a pressurization light was triggered, and

243
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,959
Speaker 1: then it was inspected by engineers and they said, okay,

244
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 1: we can continue. They were going to do the deep

245
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 1: inspection on the night of January fifth. And remember one

246
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: of the things they decided to do when they agreed

247
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: they're going to pull it out of service after a

248
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 1: few more flights is they weren't going to let the

249
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,959
Speaker 1: plane fly to Hawaii. They didn't want it out over

250
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 1: the ocean because they said they wanted to keep the

251
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 1: ability to have an emergency landing. Now, when you've gotten

252
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: to the plane that you have to have other airports

253
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 1: available for an emergency landing, fly the plane. There's got

254
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: to be another plane in the garage somewhere you could

255
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: use that. According the chairwoman of the National Transportation Safety

256
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 1: Board is Jennifer Hammondy, and she said that the plane

257
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: had flown one hundred and fifty four flights and there

258
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: were small upward movements of the door plug that had

259
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 1: left visible marks and eventually left a gap between the

260
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 1: panel and the fuselage, and that's where the pressure.

261
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 2: Went.

262
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 1: Haywire Alaska claims they didn't notice any gaps between the

263
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: door plug and the fuselage, but obviously there was one.

264
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: I wonder now somebody brought this up commentary, if the

265
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 1: reason the two seats were empty, Yes, is that a

266
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: couple of people heard the whistling coming out of the

267
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 1: door and decided we're getting out of here. Oh, because

268
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 1: mathematically I can't. There were six empty seats on the

269
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 1: plane out of one hundred and seventy seven, and two

270
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 1: of the six happened to be the two seats next

271
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: to the door. And it's like, that makes sense. They

272
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: must have heard the whistling. Its freaked out because the

273
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 1: day before passengers heard the whistling. Now, if that's true,

274
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 1: that hasn't become public yet, but that that makes sense

275
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 1: that that's possible. All Right, we've got we've got more

276
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 1: on Boeing and United.

277
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 2: Yes.

278
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: Uh, I'm trying to figure out which ones to do.

279
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 1: All right, we'll start with Boeing erased video of the

280
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: workers fixing the Alaska door plug. What.

281
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, so more to come? Uh?

282
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 1: Did you did you check how many Boeing flights you're

283
00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: taking for your big trip?

284
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 3: Two? Yeah?

285
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 5: Sure too, which means that's that's just getting there so

286
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 5: for four. Yeah, I don't plan on coming back.

287
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wouldn't. I would get your affairs in order.

288
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 5: I will.

289
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 1: And you know, if there's any any money left over

290
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: in the estate, if you want to divide it among

291
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: Ray and Eric and I, we'd all appreciate that.

292
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 2: Okay, you know we've been good to you.

293
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, at least one of you has.

294
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM sixty.

295
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: And moistline is eighty seven seven moist eighty six. But

296
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 1: today is Wednesday, all right, Friday's comments, So let's say

297
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: hear from you already eight seven seven moist eighty six,

298
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 1: or use the talkback feature on the app All right,

299
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: So we just told you that Alaska Airlines was going

300
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 1: to pull the plane that blew out its door plug

301
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: on the day it blew out the door plug. It

302
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 1: was supposed to be pulled that day, and somebody said,

303
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,080
Speaker 1: can we do one more one more day?

304
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 2: And they did.

305
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 1: They wanted to do with three more flights because the

306
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 1: warning lights had only flashed twice. They hadn't flashed three times.

307
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 5: Look how freaked out you get when your check engine

308
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 5: light goes off or goes on.

309
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 1: Oh I know, I've had a whole thing in the

310
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 1: last week because I got my check engine light on

311
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,719
Speaker 1: and I brought it right away to the to the dealership.

312
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 1: I got a car. I'm the only one in the car.

313
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 1: This company's flying around two three hundred people at a time.

314
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 5: That's my boy.

315
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: And you know what's going to happen. I don't have

316
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 1: a pressurization problem in my car. I'm not gonna get

317
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 1: sucked out. Oh yeah yeah. Boeing, which obviously made the plane,

318
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:45,160
Speaker 1: and you know the story is they they were doing

319
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,679
Speaker 1: maintenance on the door and they forgot to put the

320
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 1: bolts back on. Uh and Boeing erased the security footage

321
00:17:54,600 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 1: showing the repairs being made on the door. The National

322
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: Transportation Safety Board sent a letter to a Senate committee

323
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 1: that the Boeing plane in question underwent rivet repairs and

324
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 1: they took the bolts out, took the door out, put

325
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,159
Speaker 1: the door back on, forgot the bolts. All this should

326
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 1: be on video. The video was over overwritten. They don't

327
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 1: save the video.

328
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 5: I wonder why how much.

329
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 1: Space does digital video take up? What are they had VCRs?

330
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 1: Because it used to be security systems had VCRs and

331
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: the tape would get expensive and unwieldy. But with digital

332
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: you could you could keep everything. According to Jennifer Hammady,

333
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 1: again the chairman of the NTSP, to date, we still

334
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 1: don't know who performed the work to open the door,

335
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 1: reinstall the door, close the door, plug.

336
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 2: They still don't know what.

337
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 5: Those people are told to keep their mouths shut.

338
00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 2: That's it, says.

339
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 1: The apps of these records will complicate the investigation. That's

340
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 1: just now kind of lost in all the stories over

341
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 1: the last few days is that yesterday there was another

342
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: Boeing plane, a seven seventy seven, that was forced to

343
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 1: land because it was leaking hydraulic fluid. This is from

344
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 1: Sydney to San Francisco. It's interesting there's been several of

345
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 1: these United flights that have had Boeing Boeing jets United

346
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 1: flights several that came was going to or coming from

347
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: San Francisco, and also a couple involving Australia. And somebody

348
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 1: said to me today, is this sabotage? Is there something

349
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: going on? This is too many of them in too

350
00:19:59,040 --> 00:19:59,640
Speaker 1: short a time.

351
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 5: But why would somebody do that when you're putting people's

352
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,719
Speaker 5: lives at risk? I mean, if I can understand if

353
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:10,160
Speaker 5: you're trying to screw over the company but not passengers,

354
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:11,360
Speaker 5: well you.

355
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 2: Have to account for the psycho factor.

356
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 5: That's true.

357
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: Psychos just do psycho things. So this happened on Monday.

358
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 1: There's actually film of the fluid leaking from the undercarriage

359
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 1: and they had to do an emergency landing. Now nobody

360
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: got hurt in this one, but it is the fifth

361
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 1: one in seven days now. The United CEO Scott Kirby

362
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 1: told investors, we've asked Boeing to stop building Max ten's.

363
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 1: It's like, would you guys please stop making these and

364
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: start building Max nines? Like they don't want the next

365
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: iteration of the plane. Because there's so many problems, it's

366
00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 1: impossible to say when the Max ten is going to

367
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 1: get certify the value of Boeing the corporation has dropped

368
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: forty billion in the last few weeks, from one hundred

369
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: and fifty billion to one hundred and twelve. Their stock

370
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: has gone from the two forties to the one eighties.

371
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:24,479
Speaker 1: And in fact, their their market capitalization lost four billion overnight.

372
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:26,880
Speaker 2: And it said a five month low.

373
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:32,919
Speaker 5: Can you imagine what it would be once that video resurfaces.

374
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: The video of the well it was erased, oh oh yeah, yeah, or.

375
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 5: Other pieces of evidence suddenly appear.

376
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 1: Well, if we could have seen video of these lug

377
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 1: nut workers, yes, not putting the bolts on exactly, and also.

378
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 2: About seeing another thing.

379
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 1: In a suicide in the middle of this too. Okay,

380
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 1: so you know you have the same airlines, the same company,

381
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 1: same locations for some of the planes. You got a

382
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: suicide in the middle of it.

383
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 2: Now, if you were.

384
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 1: Seeing all these scenes, let's say on a detective show, right,

385
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 1: it was one, two, three, four, five different United planes,

386
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,920
Speaker 1: Boeing planes. It's Australia at San Francisco at San Francisco again,

387
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: it's australiagain at San Francisco, in the middle of a

388
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: guy with a whistleblower found dead in his car. All

389
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,120
Speaker 1: at the same time, You've got a two hour movie,

390
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 1: don't you. Yes, It's like, okay, how do all these

391
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 1: threads come together? And it wouldn't be irrational to say

392
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,919
Speaker 1: that there must be connections between all this. I'm not

393
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 1: saying that's the truth. I'm just saying, you know, human

394
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: brains look for patterns. I see patterns. I don't know

395
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 1: if the government sees the patterns, or United or Boeing,

396
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,120
Speaker 1: but there's definitely a pattern going on here.

397
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 5: I think that if people refused to fly, and not

398
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 5: that that's going to happen, but you know, almost going

399
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 5: on strike, then maybe that would maybe maybe something would

400
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 5: come of this, because it doesn't I mean, this is

401
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,680
Speaker 5: so ridiculous and it doesn't seem like it's being taken

402
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 5: care of in a timely manner.

403
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 1: Then you had the United flight in Houston, that's get

404
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 1: it off the runway. You had the the one that

405
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 1: lost the tire here at lax you got this hydraulic

406
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 1: system going hey wire. I don't know, something is up.

407
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: There's too many of these it's not. Sometimes you have

408
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 1: a coincidence, right, but five, six, seven stories, Well, I'm

409
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: sure something something will happen tomorrow.

410
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 5: I don't say that.

411
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 2: It's a good bet.

412
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: All right, Well we come back. This is the second

413
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 1: story of this we've had in the last week. Now,

414
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: burglars are copying your keyfob and using it to break

415
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 1: into your car. And we've got a TV report on this.

416
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM

417
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 4: six forty.

418
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: Coming up at three o'clock. He's got billboards, he's got

419
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,639
Speaker 1: ads on the internet warning to all the criminals, don't

420
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 1: go to Orange County. The District Attorney, Todd Spitzer is

421
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: going to prosecute you, and prosecute you hard. And they're

422
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: spending some money here and you're gonna see because this

423
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 1: is a billboards, it's going to be on buses, there's

424
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 1: bumper stickers, there's digital advertising online, and it's targeted to thieves.

425
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 1: Don't come to Orange County with your nonsense. We're going

426
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 1: to talk to Todd Spitzer coming up right after Devers

427
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:58,239
Speaker 1: three o'clock news. Well, here's what we're dealing with in

428
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 1: Los Angeles County because George Gascon will not put burglars

429
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 1: in jail. There was a story about this a few

430
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,959
Speaker 1: weeks ago, and now there's another car burglary in Northridge

431
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 1: and it looks like the guy has got a keyfob.

432
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 1: Let's listen to ABC seven to explain this further.

433
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 6: A car burglary in Northridge is raising questions on how

434
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 6: it was done, possibly involving a universal keyfob. The incident

435
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 6: happened last week in the parking lot of a Golden

436
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 6: Gym on Tampa Avenue off Nordal.

437
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 3: The video was.

438
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:37,679
Speaker 6: Captured on a Tesla camera parked next to the victim's vehicle.

439
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 6: You can see the suspect walking around in the parking lot,

440
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 6: apparently looking for a car that would pick.

441
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 2: Up the signal of his fom. A Toyota RAB four

442
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:47,640
Speaker 2: possibly picked up the signal.

443
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 6: The suspect approached that vehicle and easily got in. He

444
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 6: stole a work badge, ray Ban's backpack, and a new toothbrush. No,

445
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 6: the owner of the Toyota says the car was definitely locked.

446
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,679
Speaker 2: We've reached to police for comment.

447
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 5: A toothbrush, yeah, well, you know those electric ones are expensive.

448
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 1: Well, I wouldn't want that back. Have you seen the

449
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: guy that was in his mouth? You can keep it, buddy.

450
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:21,439
Speaker 1: The Uh, that wasn't much. He got a work badge

451
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 1: and the sunglasses and a toothbrush too. Yeah, that's pretty lighthaul.

452
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 2: There was. So there was a story.

453
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: What was the story a couple of weeks ago about

454
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 1: the key fobs that they've got a device that can

455
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: that can send some kind of signal to your keyfob

456
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 1: in your house and then they can copy it on

457
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: the key. They have something like that because I know

458
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,199
Speaker 1: got into the habit at my house because I'd heard

459
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,160
Speaker 1: about this story a couple of years ago that they've

460
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,680
Speaker 1: got these things because the people, bad guys were coming

461
00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 1: up to people's homes and aiming this device looking for

462
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: your keyfob, and they used it to make a copy

463
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,440
Speaker 1: of the key fob they possessed. So they said keep

464
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 1: your car keys in a metal case, or wrap them

465
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:17,160
Speaker 1: in aluminum, or somehow hide them. I put mine in drawers.

466
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 5: Can you believe what we have to do?

467
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 2: Yeah?

468
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 1: And it's like the last thing I do every night

469
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,959
Speaker 1: before I go upstairs. Right, I'm not going to tell

470
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: you where I put the keys, but it's.

471
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,159
Speaker 5: So big I mean, it would take forever to find that.

472
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 2: Right, You're living in a tent.

473
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 1: So the last thing I do is I put the

474
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 1: keys in this special drawer, so any bad guys lurking

475
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: in the neighborhood are not going to be able to

476
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 1: copy my key fob. And then, you know, then I

477
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 1: can sleep better. What a ridiculous way to live. How

478
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 1: much time do I have here?

479
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 3: Oh?

480
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 2: I got enough time? All right? This is funny.

481
00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 1: This audio is from the driver's dash cam a guy

482
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:08,160
Speaker 1: in Connecticut. He's sitting behind a second driver who's at

483
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 1: the light and is not moving, and so he gets

484
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 1: impatient and honks his horn and yells at him, come on,

485
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 1: let's go. The guy in the car, you'll hear him talking.

486
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 1: He kind of gives a play by play. He had

487
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 1: honked at an off duty cop. The off duty cop

488
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 1: was pissed. He comes up to the driver's window and

489
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 1: punches him in the head and you'll hear the whole

490
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: thing and a couple of words are bleeped out here. Okay,

491
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 1: so this is the man who's behind the cop. It's

492
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: an unmarked carr because he's off duty, and he just

493
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: wants the guy to move on.

494
