Speaker 1 (00:00):
I am six forty. You're listening to the John Cobelt
Podcast on the iHeartRadio app. We're on every day from
one until four o'clock. After four o'clock John Cobelt Show
on demand on the iHeart app, and you listen to
what you missed. You know, if if you asked me,
if there's one thing that I could get regardless of cost,
(00:22):
what would be the one thing I'd love to have
for the rest of my life? Possession? I'd love to
have access to a private plane. I am so disgusted
flying and traveling. I'm never going to get access to
a private plane. I'm never going to have one. I
was on one once about ten years ago, and it
(00:42):
was wonderful. But I had to fly a lot the
last month because of a vacation, and we you know,
we went to Iceland and met Cafie listeners there, and
then we had a family wedding and boy, people are gross.
You're in a confined metal tubety five thousand feet into
the air, and people dress badly, they smell bad, They've
(01:06):
got all their excess weight flop it over into your seat.
I mean, I oh, and I'm lucky. I was on
a civilized plane. I see the videos all the time.
It seems to be spirit in Frontier. There's constant fistfights,
crazy people shouting. I'd be well. Sean Duffy, the Transportation Secretary,
(01:28):
wants to bring back the Golden Age of travel, where
people are courteous and clean and they treat all the
workers properly. And they have videos out now showing what
life used to be like on airplanes and then cut
to oh and the dress and it's just the hygiene.
(01:50):
Let's get Alex Stone, ABC News. Alex, are you telling
me the KFI jet is not taking you around? No? No,
I didn't know we have one. I don't think we
have a Cafi wagon. It's not idoling over there. And no,
no nobody gives me anything. So yeah, the campaign that
they are kicking off today, they did it with a
video where the Department of Transportation is and this is
(02:13):
asking to be mocked by SNL. I mean, the whole
thing looks like a big SNL joke, but it's an
interesting campaign that the Secretary Duffy is going for. It's
called the Golden Age of Travel starts with you, And
in the video they begin with images and sounds of
the fifties and sixties when air travel was luxurious and
people got a fancy to get on airplanes and they
(02:33):
had lobster and they were cutting off prime rib and
you had leg room for a mile in front of you.
And they show all the great images of times gone by.
I'm fly with me, let's fly, and oh my goodness,
it looks amazing. And then the video devolves into fights
on board airplanes today and what we're dealing with now.
(02:54):
So they are calling on all of us to restore
courtesy and class to air travel, to they say, ensure
the safety of passengers, gate workers, and flight attendants, pilots
as well. The DOT says that this is because of
a four hundred percent increase in in flight outbursts and
unruly passengers since twenty nineteen. Now, they didn't break that
down by the year. I would guess that a lot
of that was during COVID. If you remember that all
(03:16):
the mask fights every day that and it was like
three or four a day that we were covering in
the federal charges and everything, and people were going nuts
over the masks and over a vaccine rules and all that.
But Duffy in this video, which has this old classic
filter over it says he wants you to ask yourself
some questions the next time you fly. This is where
I feel like SNL has got to be gearing up
to do this right here that John Duffy put out today.
(03:38):
Are you helping a pregnant woman put her bag in
the overhead bin? Are you dressing with respect? Are you
keeping control of your children?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Are you saying thank you to your fight attendants and
your pilots?
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Are you saying please and thank you? In general? The
golden age of travel begins with you. So the department
says it's committed to ushering in the golden age of
travel again, and they want the excitement and manners and
relaxation to come back. I think you're gonna have a
lot of people who say good luck to that. The
society that we live in now that that went away
a long time ago. The genies out of the bottle
(04:10):
on getting people to dress up when they go and fly.
At least they dress a little bit nicer and demand
the people be nice at the airport. But I would
also argue in all of this that the airlines have
a role to play that as they are stuffing in
more seats and making them as thin as they possibly
can that they don't break when you sit in them.
But to put in more seats, charging you for an
aisle or a window and no meal service. And a
(04:32):
lot of times on a flight if you're flying like
up to the Bay Area and they say, I'm sorry,
it's too short of a flight for drink service, and
you know it's not. It didn't used to be too
short of a flight for that. And just you know
the overall the boarding style and the quick turnaround of
the planes and whatnot that it's this is a two
way street on this thing. But at least from the
passenger side, the campaign is going to be be nice,
(04:54):
dress a little bit nicer, say please and thank you,
and they just want a little civility buy back an
air travel. I agree with you. The airlines treat people
like crap. And they wouldn't even hand out cookies. Where
the ice cream cart? Unless you're in Polaris, you're not
where's the ice cream cart? Come on through? Not even
a glass of water. Nothing. They get rid of the
(05:16):
water and they got rid of the cookies. Yeah, when
they come on they say this is a short flight,
we're gonna be water and apple chears, so like, who
chose apple jack apples? There's a weird second drink to
offer to people. That's gross. But the people really got it.
They not only have to dress better, they have to
shower before they go on board. I mean, you know,
and some people you gotta get an no zepic prescription.
(05:40):
I mean a lot of pajamas on board these yet
pajamas they've been sleeping in for five days. Yeah. I
was on a flight a couple of months ago with
my family, and as I went to get up, one
of my pet peeves is how people get off of
an airplane where if you are behind me, you wait
for me to go. You don't sneak around or go
running up the eye or anything that are pushed your
(06:01):
way up there. Right as I got up, he put
his hand on my shoulder and pushed me back down
from behind, and then walked by and went up the aisle.
I looked at my wife and she said, just let
it go, let it go. I know, I understand why
you want to end up. I end up feeling like
I on a bunch of few people out because just
because we're crammed into each other and people are They're
so unpleasant, their demeanors are unpleasant. They're dress, they're they're
(06:24):
they're hygiene. Apparently on the video there was clips of
people without socks and they've got their feet resting on
the back of putting their feet up on the bullhead.
It's like, no, get your feet off. The other thing
is when you land and people start having phone conversations.
Wait five minutes. I don't want to hear your phone conversation,
especially if you put on speaker phone. But nobody's quiet
when they're talking on a phone, so you know they're talking.
(06:45):
Then yeah, we just landed. Oh it was an okay flight. Oh,
what time is Jenny getting home tonight? You know what?
Five minutes? Do that in the terminal stop and they're
people using their feet to select their entertainment options on
the screen. I haven't seen that. That's really disgusting. Yeah,
it's not a flight about a week ago where there
was a guy just going to town picking his nose
(07:06):
in the middle seat in front of me, and then
his wife or girlfriend was just coughing and sneezing, and
I thought, I don't know how I'm gonna and I
didn't get sick, but and then I'll always blow the
air out of the vent, like right on me, thinking
if she's coughing, it's got to blow that out of
the way, right. But you're just looking going, dude, stop
picking your nose. We we were changing planes. We were
(07:28):
on the East Coast, so we and we're I forget
this is Washington. We were in or New York. We're
changing planes, and the plane was three hours late lifting off.
We were stuck on the plane for three hours. Everybody
was in a great mood. I'm sure, yeah, and then
there was another six hours to go. In the flight
nine hours. I was next to this guy. He had tuberculosius. Oh,
(07:48):
I swear he was coughing up his lungs and mucus
and fluid violently for nine hours. I was trapped next
to the guy nine hours. And you know, in about
five days you're gonna be really Oh god, that was
one of the most horrible experiences. I'd rather deal with turbulence.
I'd rather have the plane drop like five thousand feet
without warning that have to deal with a guy with
(08:11):
some horrible lung infection. And at what point can you
hit the flight attendant call button and be like I
don't want them on the plane here. It's because they're
really sick. There's nowhere to go. They book every single seat,
so it's it's like put me in the back, put
me in a toilet seat. I don't care. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'm sorry. Thank you for coming on. You got it,
(08:31):
so please and thank you, yes, please, thank you for
the report. Please thank you John. Yeah, it's just it's
just an uncivilized, savage society, it really is, and that
there are people who should never go out in public,
let alone go on a plane and subject the rest
(08:53):
of us to your presence. Are more coming up.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
This is one of the great tongue baths in political
journalism history, Jonathan Martin writes for Politico. And I don't
think Jonathan's tongue missed a single square inch of Gavin
Newsom's body, and he must have one exhausted tongue. Oh
I imagine, you know, if you if you make out
(09:25):
too long, you know, your your tongue get really really tired.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
Huh, you can imagine.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
I could imagine this. Yeah, you're not going to set
up a trap for me. I know you, Bob, you start,
I'll start. But Jonathan Martin's tongue is probably an intensive
care right now. It's so exhausted. It starts out with
one of the with the most obnoxious headline I've seen
(09:51):
in a while. Admit it. Gavin Newsom is the twenty
twenty eight front runner. Wow, admit it. Now. First of all,
Newsom is the only one who's obviously running, so you can't.
You can't look at name recognition, polling. That's always a loser. Otherwise,
(10:14):
full stop, Jef Bush, would you president? All right? But
here's how he starts. Jonathan Martin is Politico's senior political
columnist and politics bureau chief, so he's the top guy
at Politico. He writes, this is the opening paragraph. No
(10:34):
Democrat has had a better two years than Gavin Newsom.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
But wait a second, does he understand what is going
on in California?
Speaker 1 (10:46):
I guess not. It doesn't factor in. I'll repeat that
no Democrat has had a better two years than Gavin Newsom,
and because of it, the California governor, a national figure
since he was at thirty six year old, boy Mayor
has claimed a new title. Boy mayor.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Yeah, thirty six, Yeah, okay, sorry to interrupt. Fact.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
No, no, no, no, I I it's refreshing to hear
your skepticism. A better two years. Ask me, pick pick
any issue. Ask me if uh pick pick three issues,
list them and I'll tell you if any of those
issues were in the story.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Gas prices, No, homelessness in California.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
No, the fires, oh okay, only glancingly, and only with
Newsom saying that Trump weaponized the fires against him. No,
none of that was discussed. It was uh, I'll read
on here. By the old rules of democratic nominations, Newsom
(11:54):
fits it neatly in the tradition of Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton,
and Barack Obama, younger outsider candidates who could credibly run
fresh campaigns against the Washington status quo while retaining enough
insider credentials to reassure party leaders who care about such things.
The San Franciscan has never lived a day outside of California.
(12:15):
He presents younger than fifty eight because of his hair
and jeans jeans the jeans with a J or jeans
with a G Sidney Sweeney's jeans, and has endeared himself
to endeared himself to the party rank and file. That
would that would be ordinary voters. Tivity too, tivity too
(12:38):
because he went after Trump. Newsom is also the best
position Democrat according to the new rules of politics, namely
whether or not you can become famous by breaking through
on social media. Notice, so far, not only nothing about
the high taxes, highest income tax, I have salesman Cod's
gas tax. Oh yeah, that he has destroyed French laundry.
(13:02):
French yes, the massive homelessness, the billions of dollars blown
on high speed rail, the billions of dollars lost in
unemployment money during COVID.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
California's gas has never I mean what, It's been years
since it's gone to some normal level.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
He was asked are you a progressive? And Newsom said,
I'm a hard headed pragmatist. So he's not a progressive.
Now get this, and this may may you know. I'm
in the middle leading lunch here and I shouldn't have
done this. I must never eat lunch during the show,
(13:48):
so my lunch may come up. He's the son of
a mother who worked multiple jobs and whose straits made
Newsom acquainted with wonder bread. This guy, Jonathan Martin actually
bought the wonderbread story that Newsom told on that podcast
(14:08):
with the NBA players. Jonathan Martin is the only living
human who believed that story, and may I remind you
he is the senior political columnist and politics bureau chief
for Politico. He's also the son of a prominent of
a prominent judge whose friends, the Getty family, groomed him
(14:31):
for his greatness. Don't mention that the Getty family worth
billions of dollars, and his father managed the trust of
one of the Getty sons, so it's billions of dollars.
So he got a cut, right, He got a fee
for doing all that money managing. And the Getty family
(14:52):
financed ten of Gavin Newsom's first eleven businesses. But that's
not in this article. Instead, he's the He's the son
of a mother who fed Newsom wonderbread. He's the proud
bearer of a three digit SAT score. He'll tell you
the exact number, which was nine sixty, which we calculated
(15:15):
equals at ninety three IQ, which is at the low
average end of the scale. If you closed your eyes
and change the accent from California cool to Arkansas rasp,
you could also hear the Bill Clinton in him.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
I mean, I could see that. That's the one thing
I could see.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Newsom would be thrilled at the comparison. He makes no
secret of his admiration for the former president and the Californians.
Newsom's oratory and mannerisms consciously or not echo Clinton.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
No that I don't remember Clinton saying some of those
weird things.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah, I don't remember. Clinton is the call of this moment.
But even Clinton, our way towards where the puck is going.
There's just so many I know, I know, Well, it's
gonna be a long campaign. But even Clinton didn't have
that hair.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
That's true, but he did have nice hair, but not
Gavin hair.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
No, No, And they start. They talked to Willie Brown,
and Willy Brown is over ninety years old, former boyfriend
of Kamala Harris Kamala god Her start in Willie Brown's bed,
and Willie appointed Newsom to the San Francisco's Parking and
Traffic Commission, and Willie said that Willie said that Newsom
(16:42):
has the ability to be elected president big time. Why
is he so formidable? Jonathan Martin asked, he's the movie star?
Brown explained simple as that, and is it clear what
Newsom actually believes. I don't know, said Brown. I've never
asked him why for fear he doesn't know. I'm going
(17:07):
to stress my relationship to my truth.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
Ignorance is bliss.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
So is this guy? Is he an opinion editor?
Speaker 2 (17:17):
He is?
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Uh. This is one of those tongue bath profiles that
the media always does remember better or work yeah better,
or work at this treatment a few years ago. So
he's the senior political columnist in politics, biroau Chief. I'm
gonna save that one. Nothing about the gas prices being
(17:41):
over two bucks more.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
That's a very bad article. That is, I know, very unbad.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
It's it's unbelievable. But it around the rest of the country,
everybody's gonna go, oh.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
Wow, Governor, he's so handsome.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Yeah the hair.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
All right, you're listening to John Cobels on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Spencer Pratt is coming on with us. Spencer lost his
home in the Palisades fire. You may know him as
reality TV star over the years, and he has been
a tornado online, on social media, in person at meetings
trying to fight this. The Bass administration and the Newsom administration,
(18:28):
all their laws, all the roadblocks they throw up to
keep from and trying to find out all the truth
about the botched response of the fire department before, during,
and after the fire, the botched response of the news administration.
And he's on top of the latest. He's constantly putting
(18:50):
out news on social media and he'll be talking with
us coming up, Spencer Pratt, you want to be here
for that meantime in Sacramento, know, despite an army of
investigators looking into the wrongdoing of so many people in
Newsom's orbit a, Newsom is continuing to blow so much
(19:12):
money that we're looking at an eighteen billion dollar deficit
for the next fiscal year, and that's up five billion
dollars from earlier in the summer. We are getting more
revenue than Sacramento has ever seen by far. Because Sacramento
(19:33):
relies a lot on wealthy people, wealthy people cashing in
their stock. We have an abundance of people who work
for tech companies and people who've invested in tech companies.
And because the stock of these companies, and there's about
seven of them that do extraordinarily well, they're called the
Magnificent Seven. And I don't know if I can remember
(19:54):
all seven off the top of my head. But it's Tesla,
it's Meta, it's Nvidia, it's Google parent company, there is Alphabet,
it's Apple. Those companies. Their stock has gone up by
so many multiples. People have more money than they know
what to do with. In certain communities, they pay a
(20:17):
lot in taxes. In fact, the top one percent pays
almost half the income tax in this state. So when
you hear about this nonsense about the rich have to
pay their fair share, believe me, they're paying the fair share.
Not only that the middle class is and this is
rarely talked about. The middle class is taxed at a
higher rate than most other states in the country. So
(20:40):
not only the wealthy getting bent over, but the middle
class in California gets bent over. And we have the
highest sales tax and we have the highest gas tax.
It all adds up to the most money ever and
still California government is in a deficit. This is the
(21:00):
game they play. They gave away. They give away thirty
five billion dollars a year to illegal illegal aliens. About
twelve billion dollars a year go to illegal alien healthcare. Everybody.
It started off with little kids, the elderly. Now it's
everyone lifetime illegal alien healthcare free from the state of
(21:25):
California's taxpayers. And I had to emphasize that because I
often hear in the news California pays healthcare benefits to
illegal alien. No. California taxpayers, including many who can't afford
their own healthcare, are forced to finance the healthcare of
millions of illegal aliens. We've got three four five million
(21:49):
illegal aliens. Nobody knows the exact number, had a million
in LA County. Fortunately, some have been caught, Others have
been deported. And whenever anybody says, oh, you know, we
really should only be deporting the credinal, no, people came
here to live off me and you. They're getting free healthcare.
(22:13):
They're not entitled to it. Their children are getting free education.
They're not entitled to it. They can go to their
home country and they can get the health care and
the education. I don't want to provide it. I want
I don't want to be forced to provide it. You
shouldn't be forced to provide it. We all have our
own obligations we need to take care of and I
(22:33):
really resent Newsom given away thirty five billion dollars every
year and then complaining that we've got a big deficit here. Yeah,
well stop, just give the money to Americans. Let's start
with that notion. The AI boom has created a lot
(22:55):
of multimillionaires and billionaires, but the stock market is at
a record high. A lot of the stock price depends
on people believing that this AI boom is really going
to transform society and it's going to last forever, and
(23:18):
that these companies are going to be able to pull
off the potential and make money at it. There's obviously
a lot of uncertainty. While it is a tremendous innovation
that will change a lot of things in our lives,
nobody knows whether these companies will actually make the profits
that their stock prices seem to promise. You could have
(23:39):
a massive downtour or a crash in AI stocks any day,
any minute. You don't know what's going to set it off,
which means the budget for California could end up with
a huge hole blown right through the middle of it.
(24:00):
And it's already bad. They're already bleeding money because of
massive overspending on nonsense, stupid stuff such as the billion
and a half dollars for that Capitol building annex, which
is a monument to the egos of those in the
legislature and the governor. They don't have many tricks left.
They were massively in debt this past year, and they
(24:23):
came up with all kinds of one time solutions, money
moving around, delaying payments, borrowing money from the future. They
can't do that that much this year. And of course,
what do you think we have a moron? The Speaker
of the Assembly, Robert Reeves. You know what his analysis is,
(24:44):
It's Trump's fault. Honest to god, it's Trump's fault. Trump's
got nothing to do with California state spending. What he
is cutting, though, is some of the some of the
Medicaid spending, which has to be cut because Newsom gives
(25:06):
it away to illegal aliens. And there's no reason that
taxpayers around the country should have to pay for the
healthcare of illegal aliens in California. Nobody else does that,
And so Newsom deserves a huge budget hole because he's
doing stupid, irresponsible things. But Newsom is responsible for this
(25:31):
massive budget deficit, and it's going to get worse and
worse and worse. They're looking at it running through you know,
as far as they can see. You know, they've got
it laid out through twenty the rest of twenty twenty
six into twenty twenty seven. Because because what Because progressive
(25:54):
politicians spend enormous amounts of money tax people to death.
You wonder why the economy sucks in California highest unemployment rate,
highest inflation rate, highest taxes, worst business climate out of
fifty states, and it's starting to catch up.

Let me tell you about the Gay Sheet New York
(26:41):
Times story. There is a fashion designer named Michael Schmidt.
He designs costumes for share Shakira Sabrina Carpenter and he
is family were farmers, and he found out one day
that there are gay sheep one out of every twelve
(27:05):
rams are gay, not the Los Angeles ram. Yeah, oh okay, okay,
So the male male sheep or rams, the females are
use e w s they you say it is. So
when the gay sheep see the female sheep, they go ew.
They want nothing to do with it, thank you. And
(27:27):
he found out that the one purpose for these male
sheep is to reproduce. And on a normal farm, one
ram should service fifty us and they have topprocreate. They
got to reproduce. So if you're a gay male ram,
(27:49):
you're of no use and you get sent to the slaughterhouse.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Oh that's discrimination.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
Well, and Michael Schmidt, he's gay, and thought, well, no,
this isn't right. It's not for the gay sheep to
be sent to the slaughterhouse because they can't reproduce with
the female sheep. That's not their thing. So the sheep
are being killed for being gay, he realized. And so
what he's done is he's created a company called Rainbow
Wool because the gay sheep are discarded and it turns
(28:23):
out that they keep growing wool and their wool can
be valuable, and so he put together this company with
some other helpers to redirect the gay animals from the
slaughterhouse to be wool growing contributors.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
I love this.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Isn't this great? It is? They wanted to come up
with here's the thing. When female sheep get pregnant, they
stop growing wool, but the male sheep never stop. So
I thought this could be a business opportunity. And they
began with three sheep, and now they have put together
(29:07):
a business and New York Times has photos of them
like fluffing the wool and creating product out of the wool,
and they sell patches and caps. Proceeds go to gay
charities as well as sponsorships, and now they're saving the
lives of all these gay sheep.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
I love the story. You know, had I known what
this story entailed, I would have chosen that.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
The other day. I'm glad you said that because that's
what I was thinking. Yes, I was thinking if only
she knew, only I knew. Instead you were taking the
weird penis I was, and you were missing out. Yes,
that's something I thought would hearten you.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Well, you know what I needed that today?
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Thank you. How many gay sheep have been saved. And
they have a store now, an online store, and there's
photos in the New York Times of the kind of
products that they made. But I never knew that. I
didn't know there were, first of all, that many gay sheeps.
I didn't know there was any one out of twelve.
(30:07):
That means there's millions, and that they were all sent yeah,
sent to sent to the old meat grinder. Well, they're
not useful in the in the in the world of sheep.
If you're running a farm.
Speaker 3 (30:20):
People eat sheep.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Uh either lamb, Yeah, lamb is the baby sheep. In fact,
Iceland they got lamb.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
I forgot that it's lamb. I really didn't put those
two together, but now I remember.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
And then there's mutton. Is the is the sheep meat?
Speaker 3 (30:38):
Okay, never mind?
Speaker 1 (30:40):
What was the real value? I think so? But the
real value on a farm is you got to keep producing.
I mean, here's fifty women have at it, which means
if you're a straight sheep, life is good. Yeah, okay,
here's fifty girls do it.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
Right, You're not if you're when they get tired.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
Well, I don't know, but you don't. No, I haven't
been in that situation, so I don't I can't relate.
All right, we come back. Spencer Pratt, the reality TV
star lives in the Palisades, lost everything in the fire,
and now he is the leading fighter for Palisades residents. Okay,
we've got more coming up on The John Cobalt Show.
(31:27):
Now here's an update from the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Hey,
you've been listening to The John Cobalt Show podcast. You
can always hear the show live on KFI Am six
forty from one to four pm every Monday through Friday,
and of course, anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
I am six forty. You're listening to the John Cobelt
Podcast on the iHeartRadio app. We're on every day from
one until four o'clock. After four o'clock John Cobelt Show
on demand on the iHeart app, and you listen to
what you missed. You know, if if you asked me,
if there's one thing that I could get regardless of cost,
(00:22):
what would be the one thing I'd love to have
for the rest of my life? Possession? I'd love to
have access to a private plane. I am so disgusted
flying and traveling. I'm never going to get access to
a private plane. I'm never going to have one. I
was on one once about ten years ago, and it
(00:42):
was wonderful. But I had to fly a lot the
last month because of a vacation, and we you know,
we went to Iceland and met Cafie listeners there, and
then we had a family wedding and boy, people are gross.
You're in a confined metal tubety five thousand feet into
the air, and people dress badly, they smell bad, They've
(01:06):
got all their excess weight flop it over into your seat.
I mean, I oh, and I'm lucky. I was on
a civilized plane. I see the videos all the time.
It seems to be spirit in Frontier. There's constant fistfights,
crazy people shouting. I'd be well. Sean Duffy, the Transportation Secretary,
(01:28):
wants to bring back the Golden Age of travel, where
people are courteous and clean and they treat all the
workers properly. And they have videos out now showing what
life used to be like on airplanes and then cut
to oh and the dress and it's just the hygiene.
(01:50):
Let's get Alex Stone, ABC News. Alex, are you telling
me the KFI jet is not taking you around? No? No,
I didn't know we have one. I don't think we
have a Cafi wagon. It's not idoling over there. And no,
no nobody gives me anything. So yeah, the campaign that
they are kicking off today, they did it with a
video where the Department of Transportation is and this is
(02:13):
asking to be mocked by SNL. I mean, the whole
thing looks like a big SNL joke, but it's an
interesting campaign that the Secretary Duffy is going for. It's
called the Golden Age of Travel starts with you, And
in the video they begin with images and sounds of
the fifties and sixties when air travel was luxurious and
people got a fancy to get on airplanes and they
(02:33):
had lobster and they were cutting off prime rib and
you had leg room for a mile in front of you.
And they show all the great images of times gone by.
I'm fly with me, let's fly, and oh my goodness,
it looks amazing. And then the video devolves into fights
on board airplanes today and what we're dealing with now.
(02:54):
So they are calling on all of us to restore
courtesy and class to air travel, to they say, ensure
the safety of passengers, gate workers, and flight attendants, pilots
as well. The DOT says that this is because of
a four hundred percent increase in in flight outbursts and
unruly passengers since twenty nineteen. Now, they didn't break that
down by the year. I would guess that a lot
of that was during COVID. If you remember that all
(03:16):
the mask fights every day that and it was like
three or four a day that we were covering in
the federal charges and everything, and people were going nuts
over the masks and over a vaccine rules and all that.
But Duffy in this video, which has this old classic
filter over it says he wants you to ask yourself
some questions the next time you fly. This is where
I feel like SNL has got to be gearing up
to do this right here that John Duffy put out today.
(03:38):
Are you helping a pregnant woman put her bag in
the overhead bin? Are you dressing with respect? Are you
keeping control of your children?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Are you saying thank you to your fight attendants and
your pilots?
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Are you saying please and thank you? In general? The
golden age of travel begins with you. So the department
says it's committed to ushering in the golden age of
travel again, and they want the excitement and manners and
relaxation to come back. I think you're gonna have a
lot of people who say good luck to that. The
society that we live in now that that went away
a long time ago. The genies out of the bottle
(04:10):
on getting people to dress up when they go and fly.
At least they dress a little bit nicer and demand
the people be nice at the airport. But I would
also argue in all of this that the airlines have
a role to play that as they are stuffing in
more seats and making them as thin as they possibly
can that they don't break when you sit in them.
But to put in more seats, charging you for an
aisle or a window and no meal service. And a
(04:32):
lot of times on a flight if you're flying like
up to the Bay Area and they say, I'm sorry,
it's too short of a flight for drink service, and
you know it's not. It didn't used to be too
short of a flight for that. And just you know
the overall the boarding style and the quick turnaround of
the planes and whatnot that it's this is a two
way street on this thing. But at least from the
passenger side, the campaign is going to be be nice,
(04:54):
dress a little bit nicer, say please and thank you,
and they just want a little civility buy back an
air travel. I agree with you. The airlines treat people
like crap. And they wouldn't even hand out cookies. Where
the ice cream cart? Unless you're in Polaris, you're not
where's the ice cream cart? Come on through? Not even
a glass of water. Nothing. They get rid of the
(05:16):
water and they got rid of the cookies. Yeah, when
they come on they say this is a short flight,
we're gonna be water and apple chears, so like, who
chose apple jack apples? There's a weird second drink to
offer to people. That's gross. But the people really got it.
They not only have to dress better, they have to
shower before they go on board. I mean, you know,
and some people you gotta get an no zepic prescription.
(05:40):
I mean a lot of pajamas on board these yet
pajamas they've been sleeping in for five days. Yeah. I
was on a flight a couple of months ago with
my family, and as I went to get up, one
of my pet peeves is how people get off of
an airplane where if you are behind me, you wait
for me to go. You don't sneak around or go
running up the eye or anything that are pushed your
(06:01):
way up there. Right as I got up, he put
his hand on my shoulder and pushed me back down
from behind, and then walked by and went up the aisle.
I looked at my wife and she said, just let
it go, let it go. I know, I understand why
you want to end up. I end up feeling like
I on a bunch of few people out because just
because we're crammed into each other and people are They're
so unpleasant, their demeanors are unpleasant. They're dress, they're they're
(06:24):
they're hygiene. Apparently on the video there was clips of
people without socks and they've got their feet resting on
the back of putting their feet up on the bullhead.
It's like, no, get your feet off. The other thing
is when you land and people start having phone conversations.
Wait five minutes. I don't want to hear your phone conversation,
especially if you put on speaker phone. But nobody's quiet
when they're talking on a phone, so you know they're talking.
(06:45):
Then yeah, we just landed. Oh it was an okay flight. Oh,
what time is Jenny getting home tonight? You know what?
Five minutes? Do that in the terminal stop and they're
people using their feet to select their entertainment options on
the screen. I haven't seen that. That's really disgusting. Yeah,
it's not a flight about a week ago where there
was a guy just going to town picking his nose
(07:06):
in the middle seat in front of me, and then
his wife or girlfriend was just coughing and sneezing, and
I thought, I don't know how I'm gonna and I
didn't get sick, but and then I'll always blow the
air out of the vent, like right on me, thinking
if she's coughing, it's got to blow that out of
the way, right. But you're just looking going, dude, stop
picking your nose. We we were changing planes. We were
(07:28):
on the East Coast, so we and we're I forget
this is Washington. We were in or New York. We're
changing planes, and the plane was three hours late lifting off.
We were stuck on the plane for three hours. Everybody
was in a great mood. I'm sure, yeah, and then
there was another six hours to go. In the flight
nine hours. I was next to this guy. He had tuberculosius. Oh,
(07:48):
I swear he was coughing up his lungs and mucus
and fluid violently for nine hours. I was trapped next
to the guy nine hours. And you know, in about
five days you're gonna be really Oh god, that was
one of the most horrible experiences. I'd rather deal with turbulence.
I'd rather have the plane drop like five thousand feet
without warning that have to deal with a guy with
(08:11):
some horrible lung infection. And at what point can you
hit the flight attendant call button and be like I
don't want them on the plane here. It's because they're
really sick. There's nowhere to go. They book every single seat,
so it's it's like put me in the back, put
me in a toilet seat. I don't care. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'm sorry. Thank you for coming on. You got it,
(08:31):
so please and thank you, yes, please, thank you for
the report. Please thank you John. Yeah, it's just it's
just an uncivilized, savage society, it really is, and that
there are people who should never go out in public,
let alone go on a plane and subject the rest
(08:53):
of us to your presence. Are more coming up.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
This is one of the great tongue baths in political
journalism history, Jonathan Martin writes for Politico. And I don't
think Jonathan's tongue missed a single square inch of Gavin
Newsom's body, and he must have one exhausted tongue. Oh
I imagine, you know, if you if you make out
(09:25):
too long, you know, your your tongue get really really tired.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
Huh, you can imagine.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
I could imagine this. Yeah, you're not going to set
up a trap for me. I know you, Bob, you start,
I'll start. But Jonathan Martin's tongue is probably an intensive
care right now. It's so exhausted. It starts out with
one of the with the most obnoxious headline I've seen
(09:51):
in a while. Admit it. Gavin Newsom is the twenty
twenty eight front runner. Wow, admit it. Now. First of all,
Newsom is the only one who's obviously running, so you can't.
You can't look at name recognition, polling. That's always a loser. Otherwise,
(10:14):
full stop, Jef Bush, would you president? All right? But
here's how he starts. Jonathan Martin is Politico's senior political
columnist and politics bureau chief, so he's the top guy
at Politico. He writes, this is the opening paragraph. No
(10:34):
Democrat has had a better two years than Gavin Newsom.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
But wait a second, does he understand what is going
on in California?
Speaker 1 (10:46):
I guess not. It doesn't factor in. I'll repeat that
no Democrat has had a better two years than Gavin Newsom,
and because of it, the California governor, a national figure
since he was at thirty six year old, boy Mayor
has claimed a new title. Boy mayor.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Yeah, thirty six, Yeah, okay, sorry to interrupt. Fact.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
No, no, no, no, I I it's refreshing to hear
your skepticism. A better two years. Ask me, pick pick
any issue. Ask me if uh pick pick three issues,
list them and I'll tell you if any of those
issues were in the story.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Gas prices, No, homelessness in California.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
No, the fires, oh okay, only glancingly, and only with
Newsom saying that Trump weaponized the fires against him. No,
none of that was discussed. It was uh, I'll read
on here. By the old rules of democratic nominations, Newsom
(11:54):
fits it neatly in the tradition of Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton,
and Barack Obama, younger outsider candidates who could credibly run
fresh campaigns against the Washington status quo while retaining enough
insider credentials to reassure party leaders who care about such things.
The San Franciscan has never lived a day outside of California.
(12:15):
He presents younger than fifty eight because of his hair
and jeans jeans the jeans with a J or jeans
with a G Sidney Sweeney's jeans, and has endeared himself
to endeared himself to the party rank and file. That
would that would be ordinary voters. Tivity too, tivity too
(12:38):
because he went after Trump. Newsom is also the best
position Democrat according to the new rules of politics, namely
whether or not you can become famous by breaking through
on social media. Notice, so far, not only nothing about
the high taxes, highest income tax, I have salesman Cod's
gas tax. Oh yeah, that he has destroyed French laundry.
(13:02):
French yes, the massive homelessness, the billions of dollars blown
on high speed rail, the billions of dollars lost in
unemployment money during COVID.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
California's gas has never I mean what, It's been years
since it's gone to some normal level.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
He was asked are you a progressive? And Newsom said,
I'm a hard headed pragmatist. So he's not a progressive.
Now get this, and this may may you know. I'm
in the middle leading lunch here and I shouldn't have
done this. I must never eat lunch during the show,
(13:48):
so my lunch may come up. He's the son of
a mother who worked multiple jobs and whose straits made
Newsom acquainted with wonder bread. This guy, Jonathan Martin actually
bought the wonderbread story that Newsom told on that podcast
(14:08):
with the NBA players. Jonathan Martin is the only living
human who believed that story, and may I remind you
he is the senior political columnist and politics bureau chief
for Politico. He's also the son of a prominent of
a prominent judge whose friends, the Getty family, groomed him
(14:31):
for his greatness. Don't mention that the Getty family worth
billions of dollars, and his father managed the trust of
one of the Getty sons, so it's billions of dollars.
So he got a cut, right, He got a fee
for doing all that money managing. And the Getty family
(14:52):
financed ten of Gavin Newsom's first eleven businesses. But that's
not in this article. Instead, he's the He's the son
of a mother who fed Newsom wonderbread. He's the proud
bearer of a three digit SAT score. He'll tell you
the exact number, which was nine sixty, which we calculated
(15:15):
equals at ninety three IQ, which is at the low
average end of the scale. If you closed your eyes
and change the accent from California cool to Arkansas rasp,
you could also hear the Bill Clinton in him.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
I mean, I could see that. That's the one thing
I could see.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Newsom would be thrilled at the comparison. He makes no
secret of his admiration for the former president and the Californians.
Newsom's oratory and mannerisms consciously or not echo Clinton.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
No that I don't remember Clinton saying some of those
weird things.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah, I don't remember. Clinton is the call of this moment.
But even Clinton, our way towards where the puck is going.
There's just so many I know, I know, Well, it's
gonna be a long campaign. But even Clinton didn't have
that hair.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
That's true, but he did have nice hair, but not
Gavin hair.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
No, No, And they start. They talked to Willie Brown,
and Willy Brown is over ninety years old, former boyfriend
of Kamala Harris Kamala god Her start in Willie Brown's bed,
and Willie appointed Newsom to the San Francisco's Parking and
Traffic Commission, and Willie said that Willie said that Newsom
(16:42):
has the ability to be elected president big time. Why
is he so formidable? Jonathan Martin asked, he's the movie star?
Brown explained simple as that, and is it clear what
Newsom actually believes. I don't know, said Brown. I've never
asked him why for fear he doesn't know. I'm going
(17:07):
to stress my relationship to my truth.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
Ignorance is bliss.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
So is this guy? Is he an opinion editor?
Speaker 2 (17:17):
He is?
Speaker 1 (17:19):
Uh. This is one of those tongue bath profiles that
the media always does remember better or work yeah better,
or work at this treatment a few years ago. So
he's the senior political columnist in politics, biroau Chief. I'm
gonna save that one. Nothing about the gas prices being
(17:41):
over two bucks more.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
That's a very bad article. That is, I know, very unbad.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
It's it's unbelievable. But it around the rest of the country,
everybody's gonna go, oh.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
Wow, Governor, he's so handsome.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Yeah the hair.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
All right, you're listening to John Cobels on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Spencer Pratt is coming on with us. Spencer lost his
home in the Palisades fire. You may know him as
reality TV star over the years, and he has been
a tornado online, on social media, in person at meetings
trying to fight this. The Bass administration and the Newsom administration,
(18:28):
all their laws, all the roadblocks they throw up to
keep from and trying to find out all the truth
about the botched response of the fire department before, during,
and after the fire, the botched response of the news administration.
And he's on top of the latest. He's constantly putting
(18:50):
out news on social media and he'll be talking with
us coming up, Spencer Pratt, you want to be here
for that meantime in Sacramento, know, despite an army of
investigators looking into the wrongdoing of so many people in
Newsom's orbit a, Newsom is continuing to blow so much
(19:12):
money that we're looking at an eighteen billion dollar deficit
for the next fiscal year, and that's up five billion
dollars from earlier in the summer. We are getting more
revenue than Sacramento has ever seen by far. Because Sacramento
(19:33):
relies a lot on wealthy people, wealthy people cashing in
their stock. We have an abundance of people who work
for tech companies and people who've invested in tech companies.
And because the stock of these companies, and there's about
seven of them that do extraordinarily well, they're called the
Magnificent Seven. And I don't know if I can remember
(19:54):
all seven off the top of my head. But it's Tesla,
it's Meta, it's Nvidia, it's Google parent company, there is Alphabet,
it's Apple. Those companies. Their stock has gone up by
so many multiples. People have more money than they know
what to do with. In certain communities, they pay a
(20:17):
lot in taxes. In fact, the top one percent pays
almost half the income tax in this state. So when
you hear about this nonsense about the rich have to
pay their fair share, believe me, they're paying the fair share.
Not only that the middle class is and this is
rarely talked about. The middle class is taxed at a
higher rate than most other states in the country. So
(20:40):
not only the wealthy getting bent over, but the middle
class in California gets bent over. And we have the
highest sales tax and we have the highest gas tax.
It all adds up to the most money ever and
still California government is in a deficit. This is the
(21:00):
game they play. They gave away. They give away thirty
five billion dollars a year to illegal illegal aliens. About
twelve billion dollars a year go to illegal alien healthcare. Everybody.
It started off with little kids, the elderly. Now it's
everyone lifetime illegal alien healthcare free from the state of
(21:25):
California's taxpayers. And I had to emphasize that because I
often hear in the news California pays healthcare benefits to
illegal alien. No. California taxpayers, including many who can't afford
their own healthcare, are forced to finance the healthcare of
millions of illegal aliens. We've got three four five million
(21:49):
illegal aliens. Nobody knows the exact number, had a million
in LA County. Fortunately, some have been caught, Others have
been deported. And whenever anybody says, oh, you know, we
really should only be deporting the credinal, no, people came
here to live off me and you. They're getting free healthcare.
(22:13):
They're not entitled to it. Their children are getting free education.
They're not entitled to it. They can go to their
home country and they can get the health care and
the education. I don't want to provide it. I want
I don't want to be forced to provide it. You
shouldn't be forced to provide it. We all have our
own obligations we need to take care of and I
(22:33):
really resent Newsom given away thirty five billion dollars every
year and then complaining that we've got a big deficit here. Yeah,
well stop, just give the money to Americans. Let's start
with that notion. The AI boom has created a lot
(22:55):
of multimillionaires and billionaires, but the stock market is at
a record high. A lot of the stock price depends
on people believing that this AI boom is really going
to transform society and it's going to last forever, and
(23:18):
that these companies are going to be able to pull
off the potential and make money at it. There's obviously
a lot of uncertainty. While it is a tremendous innovation
that will change a lot of things in our lives,
nobody knows whether these companies will actually make the profits
that their stock prices seem to promise. You could have
(23:39):
a massive downtour or a crash in AI stocks any day,
any minute. You don't know what's going to set it off,
which means the budget for California could end up with
a huge hole blown right through the middle of it.
(24:00):
And it's already bad. They're already bleeding money because of
massive overspending on nonsense, stupid stuff such as the billion
and a half dollars for that Capitol building annex, which
is a monument to the egos of those in the
legislature and the governor. They don't have many tricks left.
They were massively in debt this past year, and they
(24:23):
came up with all kinds of one time solutions, money
moving around, delaying payments, borrowing money from the future. They
can't do that that much this year. And of course,
what do you think we have a moron? The Speaker
of the Assembly, Robert Reeves. You know what his analysis is,
(24:44):
It's Trump's fault. Honest to god, it's Trump's fault. Trump's
got nothing to do with California state spending. What he
is cutting, though, is some of the some of the
Medicaid spending, which has to be cut because Newsom gives
(25:06):
it away to illegal aliens. And there's no reason that
taxpayers around the country should have to pay for the
healthcare of illegal aliens in California. Nobody else does that,
And so Newsom deserves a huge budget hole because he's
doing stupid, irresponsible things. But Newsom is responsible for this
(25:31):
massive budget deficit, and it's going to get worse and
worse and worse. They're looking at it running through you know,
as far as they can see. You know, they've got
it laid out through twenty the rest of twenty twenty
six into twenty twenty seven. Because because what Because progressive
(25:54):
politicians spend enormous amounts of money tax people to death.
You wonder why the economy sucks in California highest unemployment rate,
highest inflation rate, highest taxes, worst business climate out of
fifty states, and it's starting to catch up.

Let me tell you about the Gay Sheet New York
(26:41):
Times story. There is a fashion designer named Michael Schmidt.
He designs costumes for share Shakira Sabrina Carpenter and he
is family were farmers, and he found out one day
that there are gay sheep one out of every twelve
(27:05):
rams are gay, not the Los Angeles ram. Yeah, oh okay, okay,
So the male male sheep or rams, the females are
use e w s they you say it is. So
when the gay sheep see the female sheep, they go ew.
They want nothing to do with it, thank you. And
(27:27):
he found out that the one purpose for these male
sheep is to reproduce. And on a normal farm, one
ram should service fifty us and they have topprocreate. They
got to reproduce. So if you're a gay male ram,
(27:49):
you're of no use and you get sent to the slaughterhouse.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Oh that's discrimination.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
Well, and Michael Schmidt, he's gay, and thought, well, no,
this isn't right. It's not for the gay sheep to
be sent to the slaughterhouse because they can't reproduce with
the female sheep. That's not their thing. So the sheep
are being killed for being gay, he realized. And so
what he's done is he's created a company called Rainbow
Wool because the gay sheep are discarded and it turns
(28:23):
out that they keep growing wool and their wool can
be valuable, and so he put together this company with
some other helpers to redirect the gay animals from the
slaughterhouse to be wool growing contributors.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
I love this.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Isn't this great? It is? They wanted to come up
with here's the thing. When female sheep get pregnant, they
stop growing wool, but the male sheep never stop. So
I thought this could be a business opportunity. And they
began with three sheep, and now they have put together
(29:07):
a business and New York Times has photos of them
like fluffing the wool and creating product out of the wool,
and they sell patches and caps. Proceeds go to gay
charities as well as sponsorships, and now they're saving the
lives of all these gay sheep.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
I love the story. You know, had I known what
this story entailed, I would have chosen that.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
The other day. I'm glad you said that because that's
what I was thinking. Yes, I was thinking if only
she knew, only I knew. Instead you were taking the
weird penis I was, and you were missing out. Yes,
that's something I thought would hearten you.
