1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:01,960 Speaker 1: I am six forty. 2 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,240 Speaker 2: You're listening to the John and Ken Show on demand 3 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 2: on the iHeartRadio app. After four o'clock, you could on 4 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:12,440 Speaker 2: the app, you could pick up the Johnny Cannon de 5 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 2: Med podcast and listen to what you missed. If you 6 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:17,759 Speaker 2: missed the first hour, we solved several major issues. 7 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,480 Speaker 1: You feel very satisfied. That's right. I believe we've put 8 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: all those issues to bed now. Well you announced, yeah, 9 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: that we're done with reading any progressive news stories and 10 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: reporting on them or saying anything right. That's right. There's 11 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 1: no other side anymore. Guy walked into a library in 12 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 1: northern California this month and returned a book that was 13 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:45,559 Speaker 1: ninety six years overdue. That's very conscientiest, isn't it. The 14 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,840 Speaker 1: book is The History of the United States by something 15 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,200 Speaker 1: named Benson lost In It was checked out in nineteen 16 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 1: twenty seven, not in particularly good shape. But he went 17 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 1: to the Saint Helen the public library and said, I 18 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 1: believe this is yours and returned it. I'd like to 19 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: read that book, that History of the United States. How 20 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: did they teach history in nineteen twenty seven, Well, there 21 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 1: was still a significant amount of US history in nineteen 22 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: twenty seven. 23 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 2: What did they teach because now the way they teach 24 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,399 Speaker 2: American history is all just saw right. 25 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: Yes, well, you can even go into books in the sixties, seventies, 26 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: and eighties and probably still find the history. It was 27 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: five cents a day the fine, so it would have 28 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: been seventeen hundred dollars if they collected on the rule. 29 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: But apparently they went fine free. In twenty nineteen, even 30 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: libraries went woke because you know, don't people have to 31 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: check out books, can't afford to buy them, so you 32 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: can't be charging them, right, Well, you kept it from 33 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: other people? Yeah, the book apparently was his wife's, but 34 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: his wife got it from her grandfather passed it down 35 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: to her, but nobody ever returned it to the library 36 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 1: until this month, ninety six years later. That wouldn't that nice. 37 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,080 Speaker 1: We will have the voiceline next hour. They're ready to go. 38 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: Oh and of course coming up in the three o'clock hour, 39 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: as we do some Fridays, not all, we're gonna have 40 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: a hack for the dumpster. There's also something else exciting 41 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 1: coming this hour. John Cobalt, prepare yourself for another new 42 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 1: John and Ken desk. Really another one, Yes to this 43 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: month that is to this month, we unveiled the Gavin 44 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 1: Newssom is running for president. Gavin Newsom maybe is running 45 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: for president, Gavinusom is not running for president desk. We 46 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: have a whole new desk to reveal in the last 47 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: segment of the hour. But speaking of Gavin Newsom, he 48 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: apparently wanted to make it clear to anyone who would listen. 49 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: He announced a detailed plan, oh my gosh, about how 50 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: they're gonna up the renewable energy usage in the state 51 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 1: of California, and he is confident that we're gonna get 52 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 1: through this summer no matter what the heat waves are, 53 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:55,119 Speaker 1: without any blackouts. As you know, a couple of years 54 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: ago we were threatened by one. There was one I 55 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: think the summer before that, where there was a brief 56 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 1: blackout in areas of the state. But what we found 57 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: out when we dug into this story, there's several things 58 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: you need to know. First of all, we play incredibly 59 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 1: high electricity rates. And second of all, we borrow a 60 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: lot of electricity from other states. In fact, we diverted 61 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: electricity it was meant for other states, just to make 62 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,799 Speaker 1: sure we didn't have blackouts. 63 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 2: A couple of summers. Oh, we have a ramshackle system. 64 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 2: We don't, and it's a very expensive ramshackle system. 65 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: Yes. Thirty seven percent of the state's electricity, they say, 66 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one came from solar and wind. That's 67 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: up just about three percent from the year before. That's 68 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: why it's so expensive. Yes, which means we're only a 69 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: third of the way to being one hundred percent renewable, 70 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: which I don't really believe is possible anyway. No, it's not. 71 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: We're supposed to be sixty percent by twenty thirty and 72 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: then by twenty forty five all of it will be 73 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: zero carbon. Can we make it in less than twenty two. 74 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 2: What does it matter? Why does it matter? It's not 75 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 2: gonna it's not gonna have any effect on the atmosphere. 76 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 2: It's totally bogus. The price of this is ridiculously high. 77 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 2: Our electricity rates are seventy percent higher than average for 78 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 2: the rest of the country, so we're paying this stupid 79 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 2: premium on electricity. 80 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, all of this is virtue signaling unless a lot 81 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 1: of the other rest of the world does the same thing. 82 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: Why are they're not? And the other states can't? Right, 83 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 1: they won't, right, and then there's China. We always go 84 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: back to China's not doing anything of this kind. 85 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 2: We're doing something pointless and stupid that has no effect 86 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 2: on the atmosphere, and it's just costing us a ridiculous 87 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 2: amount of money, costing especially working glass and poor people 88 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: an absurd amount of their paycheck every month, which is. 89 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: Why they're coming up with a plan to Also, remember 90 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,359 Speaker 1: we talked about a couple of months ago, there's a 91 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: fixed charge on your electricity building. It's gonna be higher 92 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,039 Speaker 1: for people with higher incomes. Well, there's always social for 93 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 1: people with lower incomes, they're gonna there's. 94 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 2: Always socialism to solve all the problems, isn't there There is. 95 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: Find out that the poor can't afford the utility bills, 96 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: make the rich pay them. 97 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 2: Just right, create a ridiculously expensive energy structure, and when 98 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 2: the poor people complain, steal the money from the wealthy people. 99 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 1: So there were two reasons also why they believe that 100 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: we're not going to have a painful summer of possible blackouts. 101 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: Number one, as I'm sure many listeners are aware, it 102 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 1: rained a bit and snowed a bit in California this 103 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 1: past winter, so that increases the hydroelectric power, the electricity 104 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 1: we can get from the water. That's one thing. Secondly, 105 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: they do say that they have rapidly increased batter battery 106 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 1: storage capacity. They say it has grown from five thousand megawatts, 107 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: it's grown to five thousand megawats from just two hundred 108 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 1: and fifty megawats four years ago. So battery storage is 109 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: another way because again with wind solar, those renewable sources, 110 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: they're only good like when the wind's blowing. But if 111 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: you have any a battery storage, you have a possibility 112 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: of being able to store it and use it when 113 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: you need it when the wind ain't blowing. And that's 114 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: expensive too, where the sun ain't shining. You know, it's 115 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: cheap using natural gas it is. That's really cheating. 116 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 2: And that's pretty clean. It's pretty clean. And we have 117 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 2: enormous quantities in California. Yeah, I know, this is just such, 118 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 2: This is such a scam, This is just so wrong. 119 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 2: So of course the story says California is gearing up 120 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 2: to significantly expand the grid capacity because everybody's supposed to 121 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 2: be driving electric cars in the future. And oh, that's right, 122 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 2: they want electric buildings too. 123 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: I forgot about that remember the war on natural gas 124 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: and buildings and any other type of energy. Other there 125 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 1: are a lot of wars going on. 126 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 2: No war on drugs, but let's have a war on 127 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 2: gas stoves. 128 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: Grid capacity must triple by the year twenty forty five. 129 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 1: It's just over twenty years away. We're going to triple 130 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: the grid capacity in the state. No, but they really 131 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: are out of their minds. There's something else that's not 132 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: going to happen. Oh, and of course here's a great sentence. 133 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: All of this new development will cost money, likely to 134 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: fall on rate payers already burden with some of the 135 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: nation's highest energy costs. 136 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, you're electric bills as bad as they are now. 137 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 2: And you know, you know, I've realized as people get 138 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,239 Speaker 2: they get numb to this stuff. And most people don't 139 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 2: travel very much out. 140 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: Of the state. 141 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 2: And you if you go on a trip like this weekend, right, 142 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 2: and you take a plane to another state, you're going 143 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 2: to see dramatically lower gasoline prices, you know, a dollar 144 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 2: dollar fifty less per gown. And but you don't see 145 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 2: it's like how much lower the electricity prices are in 146 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 2: all these other states. And on average there, you know, 147 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 2: we pay seventy percent extra. So for every dollar people 148 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 2: pay back East, we pay a dollar seventy and then 149 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 2: you multiply that by you know, the hundreds of dollars 150 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 2: in our bill every month. It's incredible how badly we're 151 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 2: getting abused. 152 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: The story is also undercovered. Everybody knows in California we 153 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: have high gas prices, but very few people actually track 154 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: and look more closely at just how much more are 155 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: electricity's costing you compared to other states. Very underreported because 156 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: gas prices are so visible to everyone driving around and 157 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: people complain about them all the time, and the media 158 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: loves to report on them. But electricity we're also getting 159 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: boned pretty badly. And again their response to that is, well, 160 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 1: we'll just try to up the rates on the wealthier 161 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: people in the state. Another burden. All right, we got 162 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: more coming up. Johnny KENKFI AM six forty. We're live 163 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 1: everywhere in the iHeartRadio app. 164 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 3: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI 165 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 3: AM six forty. 166 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, the other day we did this story. It 167 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: was covered in Slate at slate dot com because it 168 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 1: really was hysterical and it tells you just how crazy 169 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: people are. That spend all their time thinking about issues 170 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: like gender equity. Gender equity. So apparently they had a 171 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: big press conference event to city council member Eunicis, Hernandez 172 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: was announcing that they were going to do something for 173 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 1: people at the bus stops in Los Angeles to shade 174 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: them from the sun. And the actual device had a 175 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 1: name La Sambrita. Slate covered the story and said, apparently 176 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 1: you went a bit viral on social media because it 177 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: was so ridiculous. And I'm looking again at the picture 178 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: of what was unveiled at the press conference. It's sort 179 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: of hard to describe, but it sort of looks like 180 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,079 Speaker 1: the size of a skateboard. It's metal attached to a pole. 181 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: It's got holes in it, It's kind of got a 182 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: curve at the top. If I just saw that walking by, 183 00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: I would think maybe it's some sort of cell kind 184 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: of device or something like that. I like a cell tower. 185 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: It's astonishing, stupid, astonishingly stupid. So slight to the story, 186 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 1: although by the end of it the writer was still, 187 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,719 Speaker 1: you know, sympathetic to the cause. And you may say, well, 188 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: gender equity, Well, yes, it's because they believe that women 189 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: are overlooked as bus passengers in terms of design and development. 190 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: So after this became a gag and a joke, the 191 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 1: El Segundo Times assigned one of their columnists, Carolina Miranda, 192 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 1: to do a story about it, and of course the 193 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: headline is the Sombrita bus shade controversy obscureds an important 194 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: story about women and transit. You know, I've read this 195 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: column three times and I'm still scratching my head. I 196 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: don't understand it either. It's long. Well, what she's trying 197 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: to say is that because everyone's laughing about the silly 198 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: prototype that was installed, because that is funny, we're missing 199 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: the fact that public transportation needs to become more friendly 200 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: to women. That's the real story here. It got buried 201 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: by everybody laughing, and I don't like it because it's 202 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: not funny. Women suffer, they do, John, men don't suffer 203 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 1: in the heat. Well, she points out that apparently when 204 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 1: the bus system was designed, public transit many years ago 205 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: was designed around nine to five commuters who were mostly men, 206 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: so grab bars and seat heights were designed around men's bodies. 207 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 1: But times have changed. What wait a second, how many days? 208 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 2: How many days would you spend standing in the sun, 209 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 2: because I've never done that. My parents did not have 210 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 2: much money, and I bought cars for like one hundred bucks, 211 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 2: five hundred bucks. I wouldn't stand in the sun even 212 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 2: for a week. You have to go get a job 213 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 2: and then but I have no choice. 214 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: I want to use the bus, and the bus is late. No, no, no, no, 215 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: you buy a car. I can't afford the insurance. Yes 216 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 1: you can. 217 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 2: I did, We all can't. I mean I came from 218 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 2: really poor backgrounds, I know. But you had no kids. 219 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 2: Some of these women are raising a household. 220 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 1: Well, don't do that. Well, okay, layers do this. We 221 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 1: don't want to go back. 222 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 2: What I'm saying is, you know, there are just a 223 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 2: few things. If you follow you're you're not gonna have 224 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 2: a difficult wife. But you have a bunch of kids 225 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:30,719 Speaker 2: before you own a car. You have a bunch of 226 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 2: kids before you have a job. That that that that 227 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 2: pays for the car. 228 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: What are you doing now? 229 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 2: I'm supposed to clean this up and give you some 230 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 2: kind of bus shelter carrying umbrella. 231 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 1: She writes in a city where the lack of shade 232 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: around bus stops is a serious problem, made worse by 233 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: climate change, have to stick that it and printice made worse? 234 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: What do you mean made worse? She admits her first 235 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: reaction to Las Sombrito was it does look like something 236 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: of a joke. And then all the public relations attended 237 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: the first of its kind, bust stop shade structure. There's 238 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: just no way in the world you can look at 239 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 1: that picture of that thing, which is still just a prototype, 240 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: and say that's a shade structure. How would any way 241 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: possible is that a shade structure? It looks like a 242 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: screen describes it as a piece of metal on a stick. Yeah, 243 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: it is. 244 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 2: And it's like it's like screened metal. Right, doesn't that 245 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 2: look like it does? 246 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: As holes in it? Yet? 247 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 2: Right, there's there's holes in it. And then at the 248 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 2: top are two flaps, one that goes left towards the street, 249 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 2: the other right towards the sidewalk. But I don't see 250 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 2: how you get any shade of that out of that, 251 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 2: because it's it's it's it's flat, it's it it goes 252 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 2: up and down with the two little flaps, So where's 253 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 2: the shade. I don't even see shade in the picture. 254 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 2: And I've looked at three different publications printing photos. 255 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, you know, also want to make it very 256 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: clear that there was no tax money used on this prototype. 257 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: It was well, but there will be if they you know, 258 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: make a make a fat so if they just why 259 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: would they look at that? 260 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 4: All right? 261 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: Tell me why? You tell me one person's going to 262 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 1: walk up there and say, oh, yeah, this is going 263 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: to protect me from the shade. 264 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 2: It's it depends if the company that's making these uh 265 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 2: is politically connected and is sending bribes to the La 266 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 2: City Council for the metro board, then they're going to 267 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 2: get a contract for this nonsense like like that, like 268 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 2: that Chinese bus company that made the masks that do. 269 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: Some bought which are somewhere where we don't know. But yeah, 270 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 1: I uh, well, anyway, I don't understand. 271 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 2: It's really easy, whether you're a woman or a man, 272 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 2: is to get an umbrella or a parasol and protect 273 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 2: yourself from the sun. 274 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: You would think you would do that, But what is 275 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: maybe a very wide brimmed hat. 276 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 2: Why there you go, a nice hat? What does the 277 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 2: taxpayer have to provide shade? 278 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: Why? I because we have to look out for the 279 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: people who work. 280 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 2: I don't know, you know what if you're working. 281 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: The fact that he did so much on this. They 282 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: tried to figure out where to do this. Where are 283 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: the most women, particularly from minority neighborhoods, riding the bus 284 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: the most, and where is the most unshaded areas. 285 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 4: I just don't see how you get shade out of this. 286 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: That's why it's a prototype. I think there's still some, 287 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: but it's just rip. I'm telling you this. And that 288 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: story in Slate indicated that they were met with so 289 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: many regulatory parameters as to where they could install this 290 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: that that's half the reason it came out looking this funny. 291 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: Remember we went through that story the other. 292 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, this headline here los Angeles bush shade for women 293 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 2: and minorities. 294 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: What you mean, white guys? Kid, here's the shade the 295 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: probably doesn't allow you. 296 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 2: Right, there's no race restrictions on shade in Los Angeles. 297 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 2: Hmm they I'm not We're not making that act, she writes. 298 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 2: Remember it's a prototype. Depending on feedback, it may be 299 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 2: amended or discarded. Different prototypes may follow. Well, my thought was, 300 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 2: how stupid. 301 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: Are you unic is Hernandez to hold a big media 302 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: event around that's she is a box of rocks. Yeah, Yeah, 303 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: wasn't she the one that was asking? Was it her 304 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: about catalytic converters and electric vehicles and whether or not 305 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: you can protect them from being stolen? No, No, that 306 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: is an empty can. There's nothing in there. 307 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 2: God help the people who voted voted her in Holy 308 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 2: Holy all. 309 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 1: Right, we got more coming up, John and Ken.

It's a long running tradition on the 318 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: John and Ken Show that the Hack Committee picks out 319 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: somebody to throw into the dumpster. And we have selected 320 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: a fine candidate for you to hear about. Coming up 321 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: next hour. Well, you know, the other day. One of 322 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 1: the other big events this week was the announcement by 323 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis to run for president. And he 324 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 1: didn't file the paperwork, but he chose to make his 325 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 1: first big public appearance by going on Twitter with Elon 326 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 1: Musk what do they call it? Twitter Space? And we 327 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: were monitoring that as it happened during our show three 328 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: pm hour the other day, and apparently it didn't come 329 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: off right away. It was about a twenty minute delay 330 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 1: because the whole system got overwhelmed huge technical glitches. We 331 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 1: now find out that a top engineering chief of Twitter 332 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: is leaving the company. Could there be any connection between 333 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: the two events? How far was he tossed out the window? 334 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 1: There may have been a little bit of anger from 335 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: Elon Musk after. 336 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 2: This is one of those This is one of these 337 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 2: situations where everybody in the world knows it's a firing, 338 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,360 Speaker 2: but you know the corporate bs is Yes, he's decided 339 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 2: to leave after. 340 00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: His name is Fowadd Biri and he put it out 341 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,679 Speaker 1: on Twitter. After almost four incredible years at Twitter, I 342 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:08,159 Speaker 1: decided to leave the nest yesterday, and of course the 343 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: live stream was the day before that. So now again, 344 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,400 Speaker 1: more than eighty percent of the workforce has been cut 345 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: since Musk took over Twitter, so it's not surprising the 346 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 1: engineering people would either leave on their own accord or 347 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:25,679 Speaker 1: be shown the door. He did not specify whether he 348 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 1: decided to leave no or whether it was related to 349 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: the DeSantis event. Musk probably sent a text to him 350 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: saying out he was the engineering lead for Twitter's growth. 351 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 2: Organization because this was such an embarrassment, actually more for 352 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 2: Musk than DeSantis. DeSantis has to deal with the fallout. 353 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 2: But you know, there's nobody in politics who knows how 354 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 2: to how to handle complex social media requirements. This was 355 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 2: entirely on Musk, and Musk is trusting is a chief 356 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 2: engineer here. 357 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 1: And apparently it was hundreds of thousands, I guess wanted 358 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 1: to that's what overwhelmed it. It says here the event 359 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: drew more than six hundred thousand people at one point, 360 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: but by the end there was about three hundred thousand 361 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: people tuned in, if you want to call it that. 362 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 2: To the Twitter, it's a tiny percentage of the country. 363 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, it's it's you know, you. 364 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 1: Can probably have them more media who have to cover 365 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: this presidential rate. 366 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why it's so wildly overblown. Somebody actually went 367 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 2: to a restaurant or a bar in Iowa, some political 368 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 2: reporter to ask people what they thought about. You know, 369 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 2: DeSantis is a Twitter problem, and most of them hadn't 370 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 2: heard of it, and they didn't care. A few of 371 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 2: them thought, wow, I guess he got such a big crowd. 372 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 2: It did fried the circuits. I mean when Tyler's Taylor's. 373 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:54,360 Speaker 2: When Taylor Swift announces a concert right and ticketmaster sezes up, 374 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 2: everybody goes, wow, she's really popular. And that's what the 375 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 2: average person in that bar thought. It's like, Wow, must 376 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 2: have drawn a big crowd if they if the system crashed. 377 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: Right, and that's how DeSantis was playing this, it's a 378 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: good thing. It just means there was a lot of interest. 379 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: But yeah, three hundred thousand but doesn't sound like an 380 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: incredibly overwhelming number of people. But by the standards of 381 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: what they could accommodate. 382 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 2: Technologically, eighty percent of the country doesn't even have a 383 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 2: Twitter account, and there's that, and then ninety four percent 384 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 2: of the country doesn't even post anything or post very rarely. 385 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 2: So there's not that many people into Twitter. It's because 386 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 2: the reporters are on Twitter. It gets a lot of attention, 387 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,400 Speaker 2: and the government is on Twitter. But normal people, why 388 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 2: would you post on Twitter to what to tell the world? 389 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 4: What? 390 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: Who cares what you have to say? 391 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:49,120 Speaker 4: Wait? 392 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 2: Why would there be an audience for your random thoughts 393 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 2: about anything. 394 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: When do they start actually like having debates and stuff 395 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: the candidates for the two parties or well, I don't 396 00:20:58,320 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: think Biden will do anything but Lass. 397 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 2: Well, in twenty sixteen, I remember it was in the summer. 398 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 2: I remember the first Well that's coming, it's almost June. Yeah, 399 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 2: it was August of twenty fifteen. That's when Trump had 400 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 2: his first debate, all right, because I know he announced 401 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 2: in June. His first debate was in August, in August, 402 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 2: because I remember exactly where I was. We were on 403 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 2: vacation somewhere, and I watched it in a hotel. 404 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 1: Room, okay, and then you and I went to the 405 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan, right, remember that Reagan Library? Yeah, I think 406 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,680 Speaker 1: that was the audien that was in the autumn up. Yeah, 407 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 1: So then maybe we might be able to expect something 408 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 1: to start happening in a couple of months. 409 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 2: Because because by by January you have the first caucuses, right, 410 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,360 Speaker 2: and then candidates start dropping like flies. 411 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: So you've got it. 412 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 2: You got from from pretty much from June until December 413 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 2: to make your mark for the primary season. And then 414 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 2: after the first two primaries or so certainly after the 415 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 2: first four. Most of the field's gone. People drop out right, Yeah, 416 00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 2: that'll happen. 417 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 1: We have also also an exciting announcement and I'm sure 418 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,439 Speaker 1: Deborah Mark will just love this. We had mentioned this 419 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 1: a few months ago, but it's now officially on sale. 420 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 1: Tickets for In and Out Burgers seventy fifth anniversary festival. 421 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: How about that funch rise? Oh where is this? This 422 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: is in Pomona, the Fair Plex and Pomota. They actually 423 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,439 Speaker 1: have something there that's called the In and Out Burger 424 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 1: Pomona Drag Strip. And there's a picture in the article 425 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 1: of the owner and the heiress of In and Out. 426 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: Her name is Lindsay Snyder Ellingson. She's forty years old. 427 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 1: She kind of took over the company from her parents. 428 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 1: And she actually drives a hot rod, a nineteen sixty 429 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: nine Chevelle, and I guess she has raced it at 430 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,439 Speaker 1: the drag strip and that's named it was renamed the 431 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 1: In and Out Burger Pomona Dragstrip, and they're going to 432 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: have the festival celebrating seventy five years of In and 433 00:22:58,320 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 1: Out Burger. 434 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 2: She's going to be in October.

The chain, of course, has headquarters in Irvine. 464 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 1: I just read the other day that they're going to Tennessee. 465 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:27,120 Speaker 1: They're getting a little further east. It's crazy. There isn't 466 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,120 Speaker 1: a visitor that I don't have that wants to know 467 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 1: if they can try in and out burger that comes here, 468 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: Like it's still Do they like it when they do?

But no, they're not they're not disappointing. 475 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,120 Speaker 1: Like I would say, almost all the time. 476 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 2: A lot of times when there's a lot of hype, 477 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 2: people get their expectations way up. Exactly high expectations is 478 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 2: what ruins a lot of fun. 479 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: And I thought that's what was going to happen, but 480 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: it didn't.

Here's John and Ken 513 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 4: with today's viral News. 514 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: Yes, it is the debut of the viral Desk on 515 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: the John and Ken Show. We constructed this desk a 516 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: little while ago and today started look at its story 517 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: and I said, oh, the headline was this has gone viral, 518 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 1: this video, and I've realized and even listening to that 519 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 1: little introduction there a lot of these stories do deal 520 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 1: with airline travel. Somebody whips out a phone on a 521 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 1: plane when there's a fight or some other situation, and 522 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 1: that video tends to be viewed by many people around 523 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 1: the world because it's always intriguing when something happens on 524 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: a plane that looks chaotic, scary. 525 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:32,640 Speaker 2: Well, it's scary because you're trapped in this tube. 526 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,679 Speaker 1: With a bunch of strangers. Yeah, with a lunatic and 527 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 1: then you sometimes have flight attendants who are a little 528 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 1: too strict and a little too nasty, and a lot 529 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: of things can happen. Well, it turns out that the 530 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 1: first story from the Johnny Ken viral desk is from 531 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 1: an airplane. But I'm reading two stories on it, and 532 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: one aviation expert is scratching his head. This is not 533 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: supposed to happen. And believe it or not, somebody on 534 00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: a flight over South Korea today, while the plane was 535 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,239 Speaker 1: in the air, managed to open a door and I 536 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: mean literally opened the door. And I tried to open 537 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 1: the door, he got the door open. And my thought 538 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,360 Speaker 1: also was all right, I'm sitting there and the guy 539 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 1: just opened the door, and you know, the air and 540 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 1: the air I'm gonna whip out my phone and take 541 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 1: a video on that one. 542 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 2: Somebody, did you bet you got to hold onto something heavy, 543 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,120 Speaker 2: You're you gonna get sucked out? 544 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: Well that's what I would have thought. Uh, nobody got 545 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: sucked out, but twelve people had to be treated for 546 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: breathing problems. The plane was traveling from the southern island 547 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: of Jijhu to the city of Daigu. I don't know. 548 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: I think that was a pretty good guest. John is 549 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 1: Jesu and Daigu. Uh yeah, sure, I'm thinking of dai Wu. 550 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 1: Isn't that a Korean company? I know nothing about Korean cities. 551 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 1: Now here's the key reason that I think this wacko 552 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: was able to do this. The thirty three year old 553 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: man is suspected of throwing the door open. He did confess, 554 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 1: he did not say why he did it. The key 555 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: here is that the plane was pretty close to the ground, 556 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 1: and even though the aviation expert I cited says, you 557 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 1: still shouldn't be able to do that. This led to 558 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: a statement from Asiana Airlines. The airplane is automatically set 559 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: to adjust the pressure of the cabin according to the 560 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: altitude of the aircraft. When the aircraft is high in 561 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: the air, it's im. 562 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 2: It's impossible, I guess to open. 563 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: The doors there. That was their explanation. So so apparently 564 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: the door behind the wing of the aircraft opened into 565 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 1: an airstream, and the aviation expert says it seems implausible 566 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: the door could be opened in the first place, and 567 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: then against the airstream technically impossible, but somehow or another 568 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: this happened. 569 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 2: Well, that's the first thing I heard. My wife actually 570 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 2: mentioned this story this morning. I said, you can't open 571 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 2: a door while it's in flight. 572 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: Have you seen the video though, Well, obviously I'm looking 573 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: at it again right now, take it from a few 574 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 1: seats back and like a little over in the plane, 575 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: and so what went wrong there? I think they need 576 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: to take a look at this again, right. 577 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 2: The emergency exits aren't supposed to work while the planes 578 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 2: in the air. 579 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: No, And I thought they what is that an announcement 580 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:27,479 Speaker 1: they make about alarms and door locks and something like that, 581 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 1: the fight attendants to crosscheck you ever hear them say 582 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,239 Speaker 1: that to each other. Yeah, that's when they're supposed to 583 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: make sure everything is secure in that that that door 584 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 1: can't be opened until they probably press a button or 585 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: do something to connect it so it's possible to open it. 586 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: But on the other hand, if you do have an emergency, 587 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: people have to be able to get out of the 588 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: plane by any means necessary, right, including the emergency exit doors. 589 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 1: So this looked like it was the main door for 590 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: people to get on and off the plane. At least 591 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: that's what I see in the video. Year UH, South 592 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:07,959 Speaker 1: Korea's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport said that anyone 593 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 1: who does this could be prosecuted in sentence from up 594 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 1: to ten years in prison. One passenger said, I thought 595 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 1: the whole thing was going to explode. It looked like 596 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: passengers next to the open door were fainting. I take 597 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: it they were still buckled in, because in all the movies, 598 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: people get sucked out, right, isn't that what usually happens 599 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: when you see this happen in the movies? So how 600 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 1: high was the plane? Let's see it's I had it 601 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: in one of these stories, but I lost it. 602 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 2: You know, if they were facing seven hundred feet above 603 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 2: the ground that high, That is why there was only 604 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 2: two to three minutes from landing, right, Because when I heard, 605 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 2: when I saw that people were fainting, I wonder if 606 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 2: I don't. 607 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: Want to fall seven hundred feet though, do you? 608 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 4: No? No? 609 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 2: But if they, if they, if all the oxygen was 610 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 2: sucked out of the plane, there isn't much oxygen at 611 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 2: thirty thousand feet, right, Oh. 612 00:31:58,080 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: That's right, that's right. 613 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 2: Any seven feet there's probably enough Yeah, that's that's a 614 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 2: that's a normal altitude. 615 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 1: Without cabin pressurization, passengers may not be able to get 616 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: enough oxygen and could lose consciousness. So that's probably what 617 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: happened to some of these people that were hyperventilating. Asiana Airlines. 618 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 2: You remember when they were in the news about ten 619 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 2: years ago, that plane that crashed at San Francisco Airport. 620 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,239 Speaker 1: Oh, they're now saying because of the lower elevation, there 621 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: was very little differential pressure, and that's probably one of 622 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 1: the reasons this tour could be open. What were you 623 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: talking about, Asiana Airlines. 624 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 2: When I saw it was that airline, I said, wait 625 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 2: a second, that was the plane that crashed at San 626 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 2: Francisco Airport And oh it was yeahs with the names 627 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 2: of the air that joker, the four Asian stereotype names, 628 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 2: and the anchor read it on. 629 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,719 Speaker 1: The air, the woman read it on the air. It 630 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 1: was that story. That's that's right. That was another that 631 00:32:53,000 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 1: was viral for its time. That was one of the funniest. Yeah, 632 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 1: this was probably going about one hundred and seventy miles 633 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 1: an hour at that level, I said, seven hundred feet. 634 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: So still though this this aviation expert was just stunned 635 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: that this could happen. You think they're going to rethink this, 636 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: because even at that low elevation, that's still an incredibly 637 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: dangerous thing to do, and they probably have to figure 638 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 1: out a way to make sure some other crazy guy 639 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: doesn't just start opening the I. 640 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 2: Don't know if that was a malfunction in that particular 641 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 2: plane or they got a system problem the way it 642 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 2: was designed. 643 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, we are there. It's the three o'clock 644 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 1: hour on a Friday, and yeah, just because it's a 645 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 1: big holiday weekend, that doesn't mean we're not here and 646 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 1: taking care of business. We will have two rounds of 647 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 1: the Moistline coming your way about three twenty, the other 648 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: one at three point fifty. In between.
