00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast.

3
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 2: Welcome in we have it feels like we got a

4
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:12,960
Speaker 2: lot of awful stories sometimes that stack up, and today

5
00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 2: is one of them. For many of you on the

6
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 2: West Coast. I'm Clay Travis, He's Bock Sexton. We are

7
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 2: here with you for the next three hours trying to

8
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 2: bring sense to an otherwise insane world.

9
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 1: We appreciate all of you spending your time with us.

10
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 2: As we sit here counting down the days until Donald

11
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 2: Trump is inaugurated and takes back control of the United

12
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 2: States government. There continues to be activity on Capitol Hill,

13
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 2: a Republican speaker and a Republican Senate. We will break

14
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 2: down the latest there. There's interesting moving parts. But as

15
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 2: I'm sure many of you have been paying attention to

16
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 2: since yesterday evening when wildfire started and then the winds

17
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 2: kicked up, there is just an awful situation in LA.

18
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 2: Lots of homes being burned down, many people being put

19
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 2: in incredible peril, and we certainly are following that. We

20
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 2: know many of you probably are listening on your radios

21
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 2: in the Los Angeles area to us right now aware

22
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 2: of everything that is awful that is taking place in

23
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,759
Speaker 2: so many different communities out there. But we've talked about this before, Buck,

24
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 2: But I went away to college in Washington, d C.

25
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 2: I've lived in Nashville for the vast majority of my life.

26
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 2: But the city that I've probably spent the most time in,

27
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 2: certainly over the last fifteen years or so, other than

28
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 2: my home, is Los Angeles. I have a ton of

29
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 2: friends out there. I've spent a great deal of time

30
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 2: working at Fox Sports, variety of different television programs, many

31
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 2: amazing friends and family that live in that area now,

32
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 2: and so I know these area as well. I know

33
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,279
Speaker 2: you've spent a decent amount of time in Los Angeles also.

34
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 2: But for those of you out there that might not

35
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 2: be paying as much attention or have not had the

36
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 2: news on this morning, let me give you a little

37
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 2: bit of an update here from the press conferences that

38
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 2: have recently occurred. This is La County Fire Chief Marony

39
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 2: Anthony Moroney explaining there's over five thousand acres burned, no

40
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 2: containment that has happened so far, still two thousand acres burning.

41
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 2: Listen to this as what it sounds like. This is

42
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 2: the latest in Los Angeles, La County.

43
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 3: The Palisades Fire is located in both La City and

44
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 3: La County. We have well over five thousand acres that

45
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 3: have burned and the fire is growing. We have no

46
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,799
Speaker 3: percentage of containment.

47
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:42,519
Speaker 4: We have an.

48
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 3: Estimated one thousand structures destroyed and also no reported fatalities

49
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 3: and a high number of significant injuries to residents who

50
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 3: did not evacuate, in addition to first responders who are

51
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 3: on the fire line. For the Eton fire, it is

52
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 3: located in both the Angelus National Forest, the Alta Dina

53
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 3: area of La County, and Pasadena. We have over two

54
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 3: thousand acres burning at this time and the fire continues

55
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 3: to grow with zero percent containment, and unfortunately, we have

56
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 3: two reported fatalities to civilians.

57
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 2: So that is the absolute latest. That was just in

58
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 2: a press conference. Here is the CBS News National correspondent

59
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 2: Jonathan Vigliati explaining what exactly he is seeing in terms

60
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 2: of how rapidly this fire has been spreading because the

61
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 2: winds are so strong and so significant, carrying the flames

62
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 2: so many different directions. Listen to cuttoo.

63
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 5: We're here at the heart of the Pacific polisdays in

64
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 5: a neighborhood that is a total loss. You've got a

65
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 5: home here. I'm going to flip over here, another home loss.

66
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 5: Let me go over this way. Homes own this street gone,

67
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 5: this one completely leveled. The firefighters here, they're not trying

68
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 5: to save these structures. They're trying to prevent these flames

69
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 5: from jumping to other neighborhoods. To see all these efforts,

70
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 5: in some cases, they're being carried more than a mile

71
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,679
Speaker 5: in advance of these source flames, lighting other homes on fire.

72
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 2: So Buck, we'll get into some of the responses that

73
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 2: have not been occurring at a level that Los Angeles

74
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 2: residents deserve here in a little bit. But for right now,

75
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 2: it's a true calamity that is befalling the nation's second

76
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 2: biggest city, and it is getting worse. It would appear

77
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 2: right now before it's going to get better, given the

78
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 2: winds are still whipping around my understanding this morning in

79
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 2: Los Angeles in a fairly significant way.

80
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 6: It's horrific, Clay, and people are able to see so

81
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 6: many different perspectives of this because of the instant connectivity

82
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,799
Speaker 6: that we all have. The videos from inside of living

83
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 6: rooms as there are flames, you know, lapping at the

84
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 6: at the fence nearby, or at the pool nearby, from

85
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 6: people's homes.

86
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 7: It's very visceral.

87
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 6: All all feels too real for people who are just

88
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 6: observing this because of the ability that we have to

89
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 6: get those those real time images. The actor James Woods,

90
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 6: I don't know if you saw this. He had just

91
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 6: I believe, just finished construction on a home in the area,

92
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 6: and he had video that he shared of the flames

93
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 6: right right off his deck. I mean, this is what

94
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 6: people are dealing with, and he's not sure what the status,

95
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 6: you know, Thoughts and prayers to James and his wife

96
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 6: and family. I think James and his wife are fine,

97
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 6: based on what I've seen on acts. They got out.

98
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 6: But people have lost homes, They've lost everything in the homes,

99
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 6: thousands of them, and it's it's a tragic. It's a

100
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:56,479
Speaker 6: tragic situation that's playing out. And I understand that, you know,

101
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 6: we don't want to politicize things. You don't want to

102
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 6: move into the Okay, a bad thing happens.

103
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 7: Now, let me find some.

104
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 6: Way to assert how this fits into my own political framework.

105
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 6: But I think you also have to look at this

106
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:18,279
Speaker 6: responsibly and say, is los Angeles prepared for this kind

107
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 6: of a situation, um, just a natural disaster. Is there

108
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 6: Forestry management in the state of California still a huge problem.

109
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 6: There are clips of Trump talking about this from years

110
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 6: ago where he's like, they're doing a terrible job. They

111
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 6: won't clear the underbrush because of the environmentalists, and then

112
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 6: it just burns too hot and too fast and it's

113
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 6: too dangerous. I mean there's and I even gotten to

114
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 6: the mayor of.

115
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 2: Last what I think we should play. The mayor of

116
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 2: Los Angeles is gone. For those of you out there

117
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 2: who do not know, there was a highly contested mayoral

118
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 2: race in Los Angeles between two Democrats. So this is

119
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 2: a Democrat battle, Rick Caruso, who is a very successful

120
00:06:55,400 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 2: billionaire developer, and Karen Bass. Karen Bass won. She's in Ghana.

121
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 2: We'll talk about that in a sect. Yes, Africa right

122
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 2: now watching the Ghana East president be inaugurated supposedly, so

123
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 2: she's not even a present. But here is Rick Caruso saying,

124
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 2: this is on Fox eleven News, that there's no water

125
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 2: coming out of the fire hydrants. They have not done

126
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 2: the appropriate prep to be able to handle something like this.

127
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 2: Listen to cut five.

128
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 8: What is most concerning to me is our first responders,

129
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 8: in our firefighters who are trying to battle this. There's

130
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 8: no water in the Palifate. There's no water coming out

131
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 8: of the fire hydrant. This is an absolute mismanagement by

132
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 8: the city, not the firefighter's fault, but it's other city.

133
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 8: And I'm going to be very honest. We've got a

134
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 8: mayor that's out of the country, and we've got a

135
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 8: city that's burning, and there's no resources to put out fires.

136
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 8: So if you look at your pictures, you don't see

137
00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 8: the firefighters there because there's nothing they can do. It

138
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 8: looks like we're in a third world country here.

139
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 2: That's Rick Caruso buck again, highly contested mayoral battle, the

140
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 2: current mayor of Los Angeles not there, supposedly flying back

141
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 2: from Africa. But what he's talking about. Rick Caruso, for

142
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 2: those of you who don't know, ran basically as a

143
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 2: Rudy Giuliani Michael Bloomberg esque character, right while he was

144
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 2: more Republican, a little bit to the right, but still

145
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 2: many in many ways having to appeal to a Democrat base.

146
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 2: But this is and I know, and by the way,

147
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 2: if you are dealing with these fires right now, and

148
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 2: you are listening to us, and you want to tell

149
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 2: us what you are seeing. Eight hundred and two eight

150
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 2: two two eight a two. We have a huge LA

151
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 2: Area audience. I would like to hear from people there.

152
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,719
Speaker 2: And to Rick Caruso's point, Buck, there are tons of

153
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 2: people out there.

154
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 9: I know.

155
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 2: We've got a clip of the actor Steve Gutenberg, who

156
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 2: I saw out on the street trying to help people,

157
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 2: trying to get people safe. Let's play that cut too.

158
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 2: There are tons of amazing people out there, but the infrastructure,

159
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 2: as Rick Caruso just said, is not allowing the good

160
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 2: people to do the most good. In other words, much

161
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 2: of the government is getting in the way of the

162
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 2: better instincts of so many people. Here's Steve Gutenberg one

163
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 2: more clip from on the ground talking about the challenges

164
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:18,599
Speaker 2: in Pacific Palisades.

165
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 10: Here on Palisades Drive, if anybody has a car and

166
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 10: they leave their car, leave the keys in the car

167
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 10: so that we can move your car, so that these

168
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 10: fire trucks can get up Palisades Drive. What's happening is

169
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 10: people take their keys with them as if they're in

170
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 10: a parking lot. This is not a parking lot. We

171
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 10: really need people to move their cars. So if you

172
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 10: leave your car in Palisades Drive, leave the key in

173
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 10: there so a guy like me can move your car

174
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 10: and get them up there, so that so that these

175
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 10: fire trucks can get up there.

176
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 8: It's really really important.

177
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you.

178
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 7: For talking to us live sir. What's her name? My

179
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 7: name is Steve Gutenberg.

180
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 1: Steve this area.

181
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,079
Speaker 10: I live in the area. I live right up the hill,

182
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 10: and thank goodness, but I have friends up there right

183
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 10: now and they can't evacuate because it's stuck on Kalisa's drive.

184
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 2: So that is the actor many people will know buck

185
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 2: Steve Gutenberg, which he's not even you know, he's just

186
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 2: trying to help his community. But it is that clip

187
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 2: woind viral. You can see him standing amidst the fire,

188
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 2: trying to help people out and evacuate people who need help.

189
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 6: And I think that this is it's worth noting that

190
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 6: this is not the first of these kinds of fires

191
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 6: in even recent years. I mean, you can go back

192
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 6: and what was that I'm looking here, Clay at in

193
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 6: twenty twenty there were really rough yeah, you know, wildfires

194
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 6: out by this way. I mean, this is you know,

195
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 6: this is a fire season that this may be the

196
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 6: worst of any individual fire, but rough fire seasons have

197
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 6: been happening for years, and there is an issue of

198
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 6: forestry management and resources because they're putting right, if the

199
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 6: state of California is spending as they are, millions and millions,

200
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 6: I think they've even put you know, in the billions

201
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 6: toward this over time. Yeah, since twenty eleven, this was

202
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 6: from twenty twenty, they've spent six hundred million dollars on

203
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 6: fire prevention efforts. Now, so you could assume now it's

204
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 6: gone up considerably. It's probably over a billion dollars on

205
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 6: fire prevention. And you say, well, what have they been

206
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 6: able to accomplish with this? When the mayor is gone

207
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 6: and when there's no water in the no water for

208
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 6: the fire hoses from the hydrants, and the evac efforts

209
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 6: are hamstrung by a lack of necessary personnel. What are

210
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 6: people supposed to say? I've also seen, and this is troubling,

211
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 6: just to add on to all of this, that people

212
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,679
Speaker 6: lost their fire coverage.

213
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 7: Have you seen this play?

214
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 6: There's these comments online at least people have lost fire

215
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 6: coverage for their houses in just the months before this.

216
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so people.

217
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 6: There are going to be people who have Now, you know,

218
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 6: this is where does the federal government declare there's some

219
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 6: kind of a national emergency situation. I mean, what ends

220
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 6: up or if you a federal emergency situation, what ends

221
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,079
Speaker 6: up happening here remains to be seen.

222
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 7: But it's a disaster.

223
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 6: It's a mess, and if you know, first and foremost

224
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 6: thoughts in perse everybody affected by it, and we hope

225
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 6: everybody gets out safe, and then I think there does

226
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 6: need to be a conversation about accountability for the state authorities,

227
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,560
Speaker 6: not the firefighters who are out there risking their lives

228
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 6: and taking in smoke and everything. By all accounts, they've

229
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 6: been doing incredible work. And the fire teams they have

230
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,559
Speaker 6: are are phenomenal that are trying to fight these things

231
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 6: and trying to, you know, prevent this from getting even

232
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 6: worse than it is. But at the top management level

233
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 6: of dealing with really it's a forestry issue, right, I mean,

234
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 6: that's what it comes down to. I think more than

235
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 6: anything else, the dry kindling, the tinder, and the underbrush.

236
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 6: Are they spending enough time on this? Are they bowing

237
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 6: to the environmentalist concerns that just demand you don't touch stuff.

238
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 6: Those are valid questions when people are turning around and

239
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 6: looking at how could something like this happen and get

240
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:02,319
Speaker 6: so out of control?

241
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 2: No doubt, and we're going to continue to take your calls.

242
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 2: We'll play some of these cuts again. To Buck's point,

243
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 2: this was a very foreseeable tragedy, and are the people

244
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 2: of Los Angeles being served by the best possible representatives

245
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 2: that could be dealing with this tragedy right now? I

246
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 2: think the answer is no. And certainly the mayor didn't

247
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 2: know this was going to happen. But why in the

248
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 2: world is the mayor of Los Angeles that an African

249
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 2: inauguration ceremony?

250
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 7: Yeah?

251
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 6: I mean I would just also say, Clay, we know

252
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,559
Speaker 6: that California is on a major fault line. You know,

253
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 6: I if California had a I didn't they just had

254
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 6: an earthquake pretty recently, right, But if California had a

255
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 6: relatively modern earthquake and entire buildings were collapsing because the

256
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 6: code didn't actually have them prepared for it, that would

257
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 6: be a lack of preparation, right. I mean, just because

258
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,719
Speaker 6: something's a natural disaster, it doesn't mean that you can't say, well,

259
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 6: hold on a second, did you you know in Florida

260
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,319
Speaker 6: we're prepared for hurricanes all the time. Doesn't mean that

261
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 6: it's going to be perfect. Obviously, you do the best

262
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 6: you can with the response, but you gotta be ready.

263
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,439
Speaker 2: When Rick Caruso is saying that all of our fire

264
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 2: hydrants don't have actual, you know, water in them, I.

265
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 6: Mean it seems reasonable that the fire hydrants, yeah, should

266
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 6: have water in them.

267
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 7: That seems reasonable.

268
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 6: I want to know why that, Why they don't have that,

269
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 6: why they haven't collected the water for that. All right,

270
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 6: we'll take some of your calls on this. We've got

271
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,360

290
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 6: talking about these terrible wildfires out in Los Angeles area,

291
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 6: Pacific Palisades, very well known, a very beautiful area, very

292
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 6: well known area to people that know the.

293
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 7: Los Angeles terrain.

294
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 6: A lot of incredibly beautiful homes, a lot of people

295
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 6: and the community there have been there for a long time.

296
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 6: Somebody who's not there right now on our way back,

297
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 6: I believe, is the mayor of Los Angeles, Mayor Karen Bass.

298
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 6: This is Fox eleven reporting on this, saying, while Los

299
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 6: Angeles is burning, the mayor, as Clay pointed out, is

300
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 6: in Ghana, Africa.

301
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 7: Play it.

302
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 11: You're wondering where is La Mayor Karen Bass. She's been

303
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 11: in Ghana, so she's apparently on her way back. That's

304
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 11: why we have not seen her on the scene. We

305
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 11: saw Governor Newsom at the scene earlier. We know that

306
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 11: President Biden happens to be in town, but we have

307
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 11: not seen him on camera.

308
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 2: With all of this, I mean, Biden anywhere near my lames,

309
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 2: I don't know they can get away.

310
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 6: I think they know that no one, not a person

311
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 6: on the planet, would feel better with some Biden with

312
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 6: his aviators on and a mask photo op right now, So.

313
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 7: I think I don't think they're going to do that.

314
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 6: You've seen Gavin Newsom, though he's starting to, you know,

315
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 6: as if him taking a photo of himself staring at

316
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 6: the fires from a distance makes anyone feel better.

317
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 7: This guy has mismanaged the state of California. I always

318
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 7: say it. I love it.

319
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 6: It's paradise in so many ways except for the politics,

320
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 6: except for the people in charge.

321
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 1: You know, it's funny you mentioned that Buck.

322
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 2: I was out driving around looking at Christmas lights with

323
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 2: my kids in the car recently in my neighborhood where

324
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,160
Speaker 2: I live in Nashville area. Just recently in the last

325
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 2: year and a half two years, you have suddenly seen

326
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 2: USC and UCLA flags going up all over my neighborhood.

327
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 2: Californians are overwhelmingly saying I'm out. I can't deal with

328
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 2: what they're doing there anymore. And you see it, like

329
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 2: just with the teams that they root for out of nowhere,

330
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 2: we started seeing maybe the last basically since COVID happened,

331
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,120
Speaker 2: people have been bailing on California. In fact, I got

332
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 2: some data. Maybe we'll hit you with it later in

333
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,120
Speaker 2: the show. Did you see the U haul data on

334
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 2: what states people are leaving and what states people are

335
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 2: moving to? I thought it was interesting. Spoiler alert, California

336
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 2: for a fourth straight year leads the nation in people

337
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 2: leaving that state to go somewhere new.

338
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 7: Yeah, oh, that hasn't changed.

339
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:51,159
Speaker 6: We want to take some of your calls on this

Speaker 2: Once something's on the Internet, it can be impossible nearly

342
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:57,440
Speaker 2: to get it removed.

343
00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:58,920

366
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,919
Speaker 2: of the next hour to actually tell us what he

367
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 2: has been seeing. I've seen his tweets he is in

368
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 2: close proximity to some of these fires, so we will

369
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 2: get the latest from there. By the way, several of

370
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 2: you calling in and want to explain we're we're asking

371
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,400
Speaker 2: a question. I think it's a legit question. Unfortunately, one

372
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 2: that is hyper important at this point in time. You

373
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 2: have fire hydrants with no actual water in them. According

374
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 2: to the man who was runner up for the mayor

375
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 2: of Los Angeles, who would we played that audio for

376
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 2: you just a little bit ago, Jim and Megalia, California.

377
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 2: You work for a water company up in that area

378
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:54,880
Speaker 2: near where the Paradise fire happened. Why would the fire

379
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 2: hydrants not have water? According to Rick Caruso, who was

380
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 2: nearly elected the mayor of of La Area, what happened.

381
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 4: Well, what we experienced here was that all the structures

382
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 4: that burnt those were basically services that were wide open,

383
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 4: just running onto the ground. And then all the customers

384
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,440
Speaker 4: that had put sprinklers on their roofs or whatever else

385
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,199
Speaker 4: to try to prevent their house from burning out, they

386
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 4: had their services open. So you have water means that

387
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 4: are sized to feed the population plus fire prevention, but

388
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 4: all that together it overruns the system.

389
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 1: So it, they just drained.

390
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 2: Your theory is that they have that some of the

391
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 2: people who are trying to keep their houses from being

392
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 2: burned down have just drained the entire water reservoir system

393
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 2: for lack of a better way of describing it, in

394
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 2: that area, so that there is no water for the

395
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,160
Speaker 2: firemen to be able to basically pull out.

396
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 4: Yes, and with like with the town of Paradise losing

397
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 4: over fourteen thousand structures, they were throwing five million gallons

398
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 4: a day at the system and it was just bleeding

399
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 4: out throughout all the empty services. So there was, you know,

400
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 4: nothing that the firefighters could have done because there's there's

401
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 4: no water there. And it's not anybody's fault. It's just

402
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 4: what do you do put? You know, thirty six inch

403
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,239
Speaker 4: water means down little streets. That doesn't That doesn't make

404
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 4: any sense.

405
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 6: Jim, what do you make of Jam? I've got a question,

406
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 6: what do you make of the criticisms? I mean, for example,

407
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 6: we've got Trump put this out, he said. Governor Gavin Newscomb. Sorry,

408
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 6: I'm just reading what This is what the president wrote,

409
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 6: so you know that this is what he wrote.

410
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:36,920
Speaker 7: Anyway, Governor Gavin.

411
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 6: Newscomb refused to sign the water Restoration Declaration put before

412
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 6: him that would have allowed millions of gallons of water

413
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,439
Speaker 6: from excess rain and snow melt from the north to

414
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 6: float daily into many parts of California, including the areas

415
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 6: that are currently burning in a virtually apocalyptic way. Is

416
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 6: water mismanagement, from what you can see, a major problem

417
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 6: just leading up to I mean, not just because of

418
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 6: this event we're seeing, but is that just generally the

419
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,159
Speaker 6: case that the state of California is mismanaging water.

420
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 4: I think there is some mismanagement, but you know, it

421
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,919
Speaker 4: can come down to you know, infrastructure repair and all that.

422
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 4: But that doesn't seem to be the case in this

423
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 4: In this instance, it doesn't seem like that the infrastructure

424
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 4: is failing. It just seems like there's just no water

425
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 4: because it's just bleeding out somewhere else. I don't think

426
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,679
Speaker 4: that the water company they'll have to investigate to make

427
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 4: sure they had you know, power generators that they're pumping

428
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 4: stations to keep water going while the fire is in place.

429
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 4: But it's, like I say, I think it's just.

430
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:45,680
Speaker 6: Just it sounds like you're telling us it's just too

431
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,880
Speaker 6: I mean, this fire is too big, too fast, and

432
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 6: you're gonna run out of water. I mean, there's just

433
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 6: no realistic way to have enough water to fight this.

434
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 7: Is that fair?

435
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 4: That's yeah, that's what That's what we encountered here in

436
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 4: the Paradise Micguellia area was it was just it overrun us.

437
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 4: It was just too much to try to keep up with.

438
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 6: Thank you so much, Jim for calling in bringing that

439
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 6: expertise from working at the water company.

440
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,479
Speaker 7: And stay safe up there in California. Thank you.

441
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 6: Craig in Columbia, South Carolina, used to live in so

442
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:15,400
Speaker 6: cal what's up, Craig.

443
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 9: Well, thank you, but thank you Buckley, take it by call.

444
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 9: I lived in Burbank, California, graduated Burbank High which is

445
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 9: in right next to what's called the Verdugo Hill which

446
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:35,439
Speaker 9: periodically caught on fire. And the issue is La City

447
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,920
Speaker 9: was written up by the La Times within the last

448
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 9: couple of years, where water leaks from their pipes eight

449
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 9: billion gallons of water a year and nothing has been

450
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 9: done to fix that infrastructure. They were at that time.

451
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 9: The issue was how do we retain the water we have?

452
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 9: And they came up with something called shade balls, and

453
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,679
Speaker 9: I suggest you look up with that nonsense. But the

454
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 9: reaction is they lack water every year. If you notice

455
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 9: that the rose bowl that it's always tends to be

456
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 9: clear air every year from probably early December to late February,

457
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 9: they have a condition called Santa Ana winds, which blows

458
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,919
Speaker 9: at about somewhere between a low of thirty miles an

459
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 9: hour coming down the canyons from the desert, to as

460
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 9: much as seventy miles an hour. I used to be

461
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 9: a flight instructor in the place called Silmar, and we

462
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 9: took off at this time of year to the north

463
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 9: because that's where the winds came from, and I could

464
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,199
Speaker 9: take off in a small Sessma. Usually took off at

465
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,400
Speaker 9: about seventy miles an hour and actually fly backwards over

466
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,399
Speaker 9: the ground after I took off. Oh wow, the winds

467
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 9: book Yeah, yeah, the wind blow that strong below the canyon.

468
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 9: So if you have a fire, okay, how do you

469
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 9: get water there?

470
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 4: You can't?

471
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 2: Craig, why did you leave? Why did you leave Southern California?

472
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 2: You live in Columbia, South Carolina. You moved across the

473
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 2: whole country. Sounds like you love the place. It's a

474
00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 2: beautiful place. Why was your decision made to leave a

475
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 2: lot of Californians. In the last four or five years,

476
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 2: in unprecedented numbers have been moving elsewhere. You particular why.

477
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 9: I left in nineteen eighty eight job issues. I was

478
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,919
Speaker 9: at the point of my career where I was working

479
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 9: in banking, and I have one career next. My next

480
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 9: career job was to go back to work in the headquarters,

481
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 9: and I detested that, so I left banking completely. I

482
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 9: went to work for my largest customer, who had a

483
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,920
Speaker 9: plant in Mississippi. So I moved and people around me.

484
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 9: I lived on the beach.

485
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, I bet there's not a lot

486
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 2: of people who moved from a beach in California to Mississippi.

487
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,840
Speaker 2: I'm just guessing that's not a traditional travel path.

488
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:46,239
Speaker 9: My friends thought I had lost my mind. Trust me,

489
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,159
Speaker 9: they all said, what, You're going to Mississippi. Yes, And

490
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 9: I lived about three hundred two hundred miles from the

491
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 9: ocean in Mississippi. I eventually built a house on a

492
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 9: big lake there in Tennessee, so I know both Tennessee

493
00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 9: and Mississippi.

494
00:25:58,760 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 4: I live.

495
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 9: If you look at the map the state of Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama,

496
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 9: the state lines all intersected about a mile from the

497
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,879
Speaker 9: house at the lake I lived out then I've been

498
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 9: from there to Baltimore, and I moved here to South

499
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 9: Carolina about twenty seven years ago. Never look back. In fact,

500
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 9: South Carolina today reminds me of what California was like

501
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,199
Speaker 9: back in the early sixties. So, I mean, it's just

502
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 9: crazy what's going on. But and I do see a

503
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 9: lot of California license plate yeah, which is even more hilarious.

504
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 9: But the issue out there really is more management of infrastructure.

505
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 9: It's not rocket science. The place used to be called

506
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 9: a valley of smokes by the Indians. Why because it

507
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,440
Speaker 9: was always forest fires. Oh okay, what do you need

508
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 9: to do? Clean out the deadwood? And that's been prohibited

509
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 9: for decades. I think.

510
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, we tray have a clip clip from Trump thank

511
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 2: you for the call, by the way, And it's interesting

512
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 2: he mentioned this book. Do you know the number one

513
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 2: city that people state that people are moving to according

514
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 2: to U Haul South Carolina, where he lives now, and

515
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 2: he said it reminds him of California and sixties. And

516
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,439
Speaker 2: you know the number one state that people are moving

517
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 2: from California. That's a little bit of a tease. I

518
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,199
Speaker 2: think we have the clip from Trump talking about how

519
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 2: they need to do a better job of trying to

520
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,199
Speaker 2: pull down the debris in southern California to try to

521
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:14,920
Speaker 2: stop the spread of wildfires.

522
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 1: Go we play that, guys.

523
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 12: I know Gavin's committed. We're all committed. I'm committed to

524
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 12: make sure that we get all of this cleaned out

525
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 12: and protected. We've got to take care of the floors,

526
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 12: you know, the floors of the forests very important. You

527
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 12: look at other countries where they do it differently, and

528
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,920
Speaker 12: it's a whole different story. I was with the president

529
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 12: of Finland and he said, we have much different We're

530
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 12: a forest nation.

531
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 7: You called it a forest nation, and.

532
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,400
Speaker 12: They spend a lot of time on drinking and cleaning

533
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:47,679
Speaker 12: and doing things, and.

534
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 4: They don't have any problem.

535
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 12: And when it is, it's a very small problem.

536
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:56,680
Speaker 2: I remember Trump getting ridiculed for this back when it happened.

537
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 2: I think that clip is from twenty eighteen after the

538
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 2: Paradise fire. Interestingly enough, and forest management evidently is not

539
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 2: as aggressive because of environmental concerns associated with bringing down,

540
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 2: as you said, buck underbrush in these communities, and so

541
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 2: it allows there to sometimes be standing brush, which is

542
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 2: oftentimes the fuel that can help to propel the fire

543
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 2: to become as substantial as it is.

544
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,439
Speaker 1: I'm going to join us, he with us.

545
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 2: No, well, at the top of the next hour, I

546
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 2: was gonna say, but Jimmy, one more call here, Jimmy

547
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 2: and Santa Barbara, which got for us.

548
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 13: Good morning, clan Buck. I'm one of the conservative holdouts

549
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 13: here and proud to be a resident of the state

550
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:48,560
Speaker 13: that had Ronald Rake and as governor. We have the

551
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 13: Rake and Ranch here and the Presidential Library here, and

552
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 13: there still are a lot of conservatives in California, you have,

553
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 13: believe it.

554
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 9: Or not, but.

555
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:02,960
Speaker 13: We're trying to, you know, hold out here, and we're

556
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 13: just up against so much government regulation and taxes that

557
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 13: we're just we're getting caught up. We've got to have

558
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 13: a revolt. We gotta take back California.

559
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: Thank you for the call.

560
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, you know, Gavin Newsom somehow managed to

561
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 6: stay as governor even after the recall efforts. So California

562
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 6: has got a ways to go, uh politically, And I

563
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 6: don't know, especially for people that live in some of

564
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 6: the major cities in California, you would think that the

565
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 6: mismanagement San Francisco, mismanagement Los Angeles. Uh, just the poor

566
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 6: leadership and the suffering of those communities that have resulted

567
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 6: from bad decisions, the crime problems, all this, you would

568
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 6: think that there would be a much greater political backlash,

569
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 6: in my opinion, than there has been, but so far

570
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 6: that has has not really been the case, although there

571
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 6: have been some movements toward a little bit of accountability

572
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 6: and more Republicans getting elected in California that resulted in

573
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 6: some house seat pickups. But you know, right now, Clay,

574
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 6: it just looks like, I mean, first of all, everyone's

575
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 6: still trying to figure out what's you know, what's the

576
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 6: full the full damage and containing everything and dealing with

577
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 6: this this strategy as it unfolds. But there is no

578
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 6: sense that there's competent leadership at the very top, and

579
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 6: that makes everything, i think higher anxiety and perhaps adds

580
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 6: to the sense that this is going to be a

581
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 6: particularly devastating fire, which is it's a tragedy all around.

582
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 2: To his point, By the way, Buck, in twenty twenty four,

583
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 2: California had six point one million Trump voters, so one

584
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,120
Speaker 2: of the top states for Trump support in the entire nation.

585
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: Obviously, it's a huge population state.

586
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 2: Texas had six point four million, so California had almost

587
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 2: as many Trump voters as the state of Texas. In

588
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 2: twenty twenty California actually had more Trump voters than the

589
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 2: state of Texas. Now, again, population numbers are huge, uge

590
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 2: in California, but there are still a lot of Republicans,

591
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 2: about forty percent of the state that voted for Donald

592
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 2: Trump in twenty twenty four. But yes, and obviously the

593
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 2: success that we have with this show, which we think

594
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 2: all of you in California, we have a monster audience

595
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 2: all throughout the state, is a testament.

596
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 6: I think it's our second biggest listening state after Texas.

597
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 6: I think Texas is number one, in California's number two.

598
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: I believe, I have to check. I think you're probably right.

599
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 6: On recently, but I also think, you know, you see

600
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 6: what has happened in California, and it's fair to ask.

601
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 6: I'm not talking about the fire specifically, just the way

602
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 6: that it's been mismanaged. It's fair to ask what would

603
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 6: it take for some of these people in California. You

604
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 6: see Bill Maher was asked recently would you vote Republican?

605
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:49,880
Speaker 6: And he said no, never yeah, I sit here and

606
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 6: I go, well, what, why do you think anything will change?

607
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 6: You know, this is a little bit of the definition

608
00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 6: of insanity, right. The people that recognize that there's problems

609
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 6: in that state that need to be addressed, put the

610
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 6: same people with the same ideas and the same approach

611
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 6: in positions of power to handle it, and they wonder

612
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 6: why it doesn't get better. It's a one party state now,

613
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 6: I mean this is I know there's a lot of

614
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 6: Republicans there, but Democrats want a California America. We all

615
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 6: know that that's the whole that's the long term plan.

616
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 6: So you know, it's it's concerning.

617
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 2: Blue states and blue cities combined is disaster for voters.

618
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 2: You know, there are some red states with some blue

619
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 2: cities in that's fine. There are obviously a lot of

620
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 2: red states that are just deep red. But again, Californians

621
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 2: made the choice to have I think poor governance, and

622
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 2: they keep doubling and tripling down on it. Rick Crusoe,

623
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 2: I think we'd be doing a better job of dealing

624
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 2: with what is admittedly an awful tragedy and cataclysmic, catastrophic

625
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 2: event right now in the LA area for many people.

626
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:54,920
Speaker 2: I think you'd be doing a better job in care

627
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 2: in Bass. For one thing, he'd actually be in the

628
00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:01,520
Speaker 2: country as opposed to attending the Ghana an auguration. I mean,

629
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 2: which is, let's be honest, super weird.

630
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 7: The people I just wanted to do the people of

631
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 7: Los Angeles pay for that trip? I mean, really, are

632
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 7: you paying?

633
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: Question?

634
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 7: I would? I don't know, but I'd be very curious

635
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 7: to know.

636
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, what in the world reason could

637
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 2: there be for the mayor of Los Angeles to be

638
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 2: going to the inauguration of a Ghana president. It's not

639
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 2: like there's some huge overlap between Ghana and LA right,

640
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 2: I mean, it's not like they have some monstrous trade partnership. Look,

641
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 2: we all stockpile keepsakes in our home, items of sentimental meaning,

642
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:37,720
Speaker 2: old photos, good examples, video cassettes, film reels, especially at

643
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 2: the end now of the holiday season, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years.

644
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 2: How many new great family memories did you make? Probably

645
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 2: a lot, hopefully a lot, and you probably made them

646
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:51,239
Speaker 2: on your phones digitally, and you've probably been sharing that

647
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,520
Speaker 2: with your friends and family digitally. Oh, look how much

648
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 2: the kids grew Here they are in front of the

649
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:55,560

655
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 2: they're on vhs. They're old photos. They haven't been digitally preserved.

675
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 6: Gavin Newskim refused to sign the water restoration Declaration and

676
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 6: he said he wanted to protect it essentially worthless fish

677
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 6: called a smelt by giving it less water, it didn't work,

678
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 6: but didn't care about the people of California. Now the

679
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 6: ultimate price is being paid. Clay Trump not holding back

680
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,600

Speaker 2: seen them for decades throughout the history of Los Angeles.

685
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 2: How is the City of Los Angeles preparing for them?

686
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 2: Do any people think that the city and the state

687
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,440
