Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can't. I am six forty. You're listening to the John
Cobelt Podcast on the iHeartRadio app. We are on live
everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. By everywhere, I mean every country,
every state, and we have listeners in I don't know,
sixty seventy countries, all fifty states, but primarily here in

(00:21):
southern California, which is mostly what we focus on. But
I'm you know, I don't know how many people have
moved out of the country and are still tracking the show,
but there's many thousands actually, so thank you all for listening.
We are on from one until four and then after
four o'clock if you missed anything. That's what the podcast
is for. John Cobelt Show on demand on the iHeart app. Now,

(00:46):
I want to get into the Brian Coberger case. Today.
He was sentenced to life without parole for killing those
four college girls up in Idaho, and they had the
official sentencing and then they had the victim impact statements
where members of the family and friends got to tear
into Coburger and a couple of them really tore in.

(01:08):
It was really emotional. Even the judge started crying. I'll
get that in a second. This is something I'm going
to return to later. So there's a Whole Foods near me,
which I am forced to go to occasionally.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, forced.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Well, I am forced against my will when my wife
has some strange request to buy foods that I cannot
identify and don't understand and usually have to ask the
employees where are they located? By the way, what is this?
They also have a flower shop there which I go
to sometimes, And so it's not that far from my house, yeah,

(01:50):
maybe a mile driving. And last night there's helicopters all
over the neighborhood. I mean the police helicopters, the news helicopters.
It's like, what is this? You know, we get helicopters constantly.
They were there when I woke up this morning because

(02:11):
they were getting the shots for the morning shows. In
front of the Whole Foods, one homeless guy stabbed another
homeless guy to death. Both of them were military veterans.
Because we got that big what do you call it,
the VAS down the block, and in fact, it used

(02:33):
to be that about fifty or sixty veterans used to
camp out in front of the VA because it was
a protest because the government wouldn't take care of these guys,
And eventually, after I think four years, they were finally
taken inside. They were given tiny homes to live in,
or they were otherwise outsourced, and it's been fairly quiet

(02:54):
ever since. Although these guys and they're all creepy. You know,
I don't give special protection because you're a veteran. I
don't get a special protection because you're a cop, a firefighter,
a teacher, you know, all the hallowed professions. It's like,
you know what, if you're whacked out on drugs or
booze and you're walking around with a knife and you're

(03:15):
menacing and threatening people, you're you're absolutely fair game. There's
no excuse for this. So one guy stabs another into
death right in front of the Whole Foods. Dead guy's
laying out on the sidewalk. God, does this ever end?
Does this ever end? In Los Angeles?

Speaker 2 (03:35):
And that guy's running around your neighborhood right now?

Speaker 1 (03:38):
Well, that's the thing, you know, my wife has about
five different crime alerts, so her phone starts buzzing. I
got to go and lock all the make sure all
the doors are locked, the window shades are pulled down.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
Don't you do that anyway, left to my devices.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
No, well, the doors are locked. I don't pull all
the windows.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Shots. I hope your doors are locked.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
Oh, that's a pain in the ass.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
Because you live in such a big house.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
We got a lot of wait. Oh that's my penalty,
that's my tax.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yes, yes, it takes a long time to lock all
those doors.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
I've seen your views. Oh yeah, you're not doing that.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
My house fits in yours.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
Well, it's just it's just there's no there's there's just
no reason for this. These homeless people, they should not
be out. They shouldn't be allowed. If they're both vets
and they were both staying at the VA, they shouldn't
be allowed to wander out. They should be hind fences
at all times. Okay, that's where their home is. And
for all the tax many we're paying, the VA ought

(04:40):
to deliver meals to them six times a day, and
you can it's a huge complex they have there, So
there's a lot of land that they could walk around
on inside the fences. But don't let them out. The
crazy people. And it's like, why do we have to
deal with this? Why do we have to deal with
like and this comes just to few days after I

(05:00):
told you that there's a there's a store that got
that got robbed by five thugs, the real real that
sells the the handbags. This is after my wife was
at a nail salon and separately a hair salon, and
homeless people barged in in both of those places. This
is all happened since Thursday. This is like the fourth incident. Already.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Your neighborhood is not immune, John.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
It's been invaded. It's been Can you imagine like in
the in the in the bad neighborhoods, what goes on. Yeah,
you can't buy your way out of this, You can't
move your way out of this. This is so crazy.
This is such a terrible place that that get Karen
Bass and the city Council and Gavin Newsom has created.

(05:47):
It's so awful, it's enraging and you can never get
away with it. You can could just be sitting on
the sofa quietly watching a television show, having a drink,
talking to your friend on the phone, whatever, and then
suddenly helicopter invasion, like it's Vietnam or something. Here comes
the helicopters. By the way, can't they get one helicopter
Can they have a pool feed like they do with

(06:09):
the White House. How about one camera shot for one stance.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
Yeah, it is so annoying those helicopters. They are annoying.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
Because you turn on TV and the Channel four shot
is no different from the Channel five shot or the
Channel seven. It's all the same shot. It's an overhead
shot of a supermarket.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Don't you care that you're bothering people in their homes. No,
they don't care. They just want the shot.

Speaker 1 (06:29):
They just want the shot, and they all want the
same shot. And I don't know how they don't collide
with so many helicopters up there, and then I assume
the police have. It's just it's just like an insane
way to live. It's late at night, first thing in
the morning, he's dead. In fact, well they're.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Looking for him. There's they're looking for the guy who
killed him.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Though, well you love to see that. That's That's what
I was wondering, was it was that a police helicopter
and they're trying to track the guy or I realized
a lot of these just the TV.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
Helicopters both there are police and their TV helicopters doing
live shots.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Well by you know by six the next morning, the
guy's got he's run awful and and you already have
a shot from the night before when the crime actually happened.
You don't have to show the grocery store at six
in the morning and wake everybody up and make everybody
think that maybe there's another crime going on, so they

(07:29):
have to check their crime apps and see if there's
a second. We went through this during the UH during
the u c l A. Palestinian riots. There were there
were there seemed like endless days of helicopters, so we
could have over overhead shots of idiot college students rioting

(07:51):
just stupid. And if they would spend the money in
the time all these news departments on covering all the
stories that we talk about here and investigate how we
ended up in this in this hell hall, they won't
do that. They just spend all their money on helicopter gas.
Do you give you a shot of a grocery store
for six hours, Brentwood? Yeah, let's just it. If it

(08:13):
was in uh most other parts of town, they wouldn't
cover it, right, right. They don't cover all the murders
going on in South Los Angeles or the East Side.
No they don't have the helicopters flying there. It's when
the west side gets gets gets a murder. Then we
got we got to have every station in the in
the city, over and over us.

Speaker 3 (08:32):
All right, got that out of my sn okay now, yes,
oh you know what I did though, And I should
have brought it for you. I smudged myself over and
over last night I got saved.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
Well, get your.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
Mind out of the gutter.

Speaker 3 (08:47):
It's sage, and you know just because I get so
you know how amped up I get, and I talked
to you off the air and leads into the air
when I am on the air. So I should have
brought some and I should have smudged you today.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
Well, I would love to have been sponged by you.
That's where you wave the sage in the air and
it's burning.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
Yes, I did that for about a half an hour
last night.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
You did that on the air of this Yes I did.
There's a video still on mine and you're running around
like some ra like a witch, like yes, like some
ancient witch running around waving sage in the air. I
was going to say, we can just do an updated version.
Thinks like hell this stuff and it supposedly drives out

(09:31):
evil spirits.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
Yeah, and it kind of just cleanses the mind.

Speaker 1 (09:34):
It's one thing to do you out good for you
to do it on camera on the show. You actually
do this privately to yourself.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
You know, I haven't done it in a very long time.
Michael Monks, our reporter here at KFI. He was co
hosting with Shannon last week and one day he was
talking about how now he is a crazy guy.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
He does, yes, he does, yes.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
He seemed normal.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
No, no, God, no he's not.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
And he was he runs around smudging himself.

Speaker 3 (10:03):
And then I thought, wow, I haven't done that in
a long time. I need to do that.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
Is your husband home when you do this?

Speaker 2 (10:09):
He was just looking at me. Yeah he was last night.

Speaker 4 (10:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
So he's trying to normal to me. He's used to me.

Speaker 3 (10:16):
Okay, I mean, come on, man, I picture your husband
there like this.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
He Wow. Good choice on his part, boy. Wow. Okay,
did you tell him that when you were dating that
you run around daving stage in the year not? No, Yeah,
it's probably something that keeps yourself more. Coming up, we'll
get into the Coburger case.

Speaker 4 (10:48):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
Bright Coburger officially got sentenced today. He's the uh sicko
who stabbed four University of Idaho students to death all
the way back in twenty twenty two. My god, I
believe how time is flying. By November thirteenth, twenty twenty two,
it was three girls and one of the girl's boyfriends,

(11:18):
Kaylee Gonkalvaz, Madison Mogan, Xena Carnoodle, and Carnodle's boyfriend Ethan Chapman,
all stabbed to death in the middle of the night.
You're probably familiar with this case. And the prosecutor chickened
out and made a plead deal instead of taking it

(11:39):
to a jury trial and having him convicted of murder
and sentenced to death. So no death for Coburger. He
gets to live. Prosecutors Bill Thompson. Not all the family
members are happy about this, but today was victim Impact
statement day along with the official sentencing. We're going to

(12:00):
play you some clips. Got very emotional in the courtroom,
to the point where the judge was starting to tear up.
The relatives of Kaylei Gonkalvez were especially animated and Eric,
let's do cut three. This is from the tail end
of Kaylee's sister Olivia.

Speaker 5 (12:22):
No one is scared of you today. No one is
intimidated by you, no one is impressed by you.

Speaker 6 (12:28):
No one thinks that.

Speaker 5 (12:29):
You are important. You orchestrated this like you thought you
were God. Now look at you begging a courtroom for scraps.
You spent months preparing, and still all it took was
my sister, and as she you work so hard to
seem dangerous, but real control doesn't.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
Have to prove itself.

Speaker 5 (12:52):
The truth is the scariest part about you. It's how
painfully average you turned out to be. The truth is
as dumb as they come, stupid, clumsy, slow, sloppy, weak, dirty.
Let me be very clear, don't ever try to convince

(13:14):
yourself you mattered just because someone finally said your name
out loud. I see through you. You want the truth.
Here's the one you'll hate the most.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
If you hadn't attacked them.

Speaker 5 (13:27):
In their sleep in the middle of the night like
a pedophile, Kaylee would have kicked your Thank you.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
It's a nice closing there. This is Kaylee Gonkalva's mother, Christy.

Speaker 6 (13:43):
A dead killer doesn't kill again. So while I'm disappointed
the firing shot won't get to take their shots at you.
I'm confident that the men in prison will have their
way with you in more ways than one. You will
finally get what you wanted physical touch, just probably not
how you were expecting it. See, you haven't beat the system,

(14:04):
You've simply entered a new one where the rules are
cruel and the consequences will never end. You are entering
a place where no one will care who you are
and no one will ever respect you. You will be forgotten, discarded,
used and erased. You will always be remembered as a loser,

(14:28):
an absolute failure. And when those prison doors slams shut
behind you, I hope that sound echoes in your heart
for the rest of your meaningless days. I hope it
reminds you of what we all already know. You're nothing.
May you continue to live your life in misery. You
are officially the property of the state of Idaho, where

(14:50):
your fellow inmates are anxiously awaiting your arrival. But it's
okay because they're there to help you. How will be
waiting quick message from our youngest daughter. All we wanted
to say he may have received a's in high school

(15:10):
and college. But you're going to be getting big d's
in prison.

Speaker 3 (15:15):
Oh oh, you weren't expecting that.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
No, wow, He is going to spend twenty three hours
a day in his cell in the Idaho Maximum Security Institution. Uh.
If he gets set to the supermax long term restricted
housing area, closed and protective custody, which is meant for

(15:40):
prisoners who they expect to be beat up and raped
by the other prisoners. And he fits that category because
they go after guys who kill women and children or
rape women and children. So he checks that box station

(16:00):
has a report of Brian Anton. We've had him on
and Enton was in the cell block and he watched.
He watched how these guys live twenty three hours a
day in the cell, food and water fed through the doors,
and the inmates try to communicate each other. They do
something called phishing, and they use strings from blankets or
a T shirt to send notes under their door. I

(16:22):
guess that's how they talk to each other, and the
jail staff does what it can't to stop them from
passing the notes. They consit at tables outside their cell,
but they're either cuffed to the table or placed inside
a cage. They can use tablets for visitation. You can
purchase a tablet for one hundred dollars that contains music, email,

(16:45):
and movies. Oh they shouldn't get that. Why don't they
just kill them? You see, he's gonna be watching movies
and listening to music. He should get bullets through the
forehead and let that mother and sister pull the trigger.
Why do they get any pleasure? Just let them sit

(17:07):
in darkness until they go insane, until they start screaming
and they can't stand it anymore, and they start smashing
their head against the against the cement walls. And but
what is with this eddiot prosecutor Bill Thompson, Why would
you plea It was clear he did it. The evidence
was overwhelming. He's admitted guilt. What was the problem here?

(17:32):
And they whenever a prosecutor chickens out, and that's what
he did. He chickened out. He's afraid if you lose
with this kind of case, you'd have to be Maybe
he knew he was a complete moron. Only a moron
would lose this case. We realized we had tough decisions
to make. No you didn't, and we made them, but

(17:55):
we not make them in a vacuum. We reached out
to the families. Don't behind the families. I hate what
prosecutors hide behind the families. You made the decision. It's
not up to the families, you know, and families sometimes
you have like some kind of religious nut. I believe
in forgiveness. I've already forgiven him. Let's screw you. Screw

(18:17):
this forgiveness stuff. It should be revenge retribution. They should
suffer the way their victims suffered. He stabbed these guys mercilessly.
That's the way they ought to be killed. Merciless stabbing,
torture first, that would be justice. Televise it. You do
that enough, these guys will stop and no more headlines

(18:42):
about oh, why did he do this? We're still left
with questions because he's a psycho.

Speaker 3 (18:48):
Yeah, but you know what, as a parent, I really
do understand you, even though, yes, what you're saying is
one hundred percent true. But I can imagine just the torture.
Why why this time and why this night? Why my kid?

Speaker 2 (19:02):
Why? Why did it happen to us?

Speaker 1 (19:04):
I understand those whys, But as to why he actually
did it, it's because he had a psychotic compulsion and
couldn't control himself. I think that's the case almost all
the time. You know, if you kill somebody because you're
running around with a girlfriend, right, you kill your wife
because you're running around a girlfriend. Okay, there's a motivation
kill your wife because there's an insurance policy on her.

Speaker 3 (19:26):
I'd want to hear from him. I'd want to say,
why did you come in that night? Why did you
do it? Explain it to me. It would drive me insane.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
They should have beat him until he said something. I
don't like the system of justice. I like my system
of justice.

Speaker 3 (19:40):
Well, I think Caroline Levett, the Press secretary for President Trump,
said that if Trump had his way, he would have
made Coburger say something.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
Yeah, just beat him until he stops. Get those water
borders from Guantanamo Bay. They haven't haven't had anything to
do in a while. Do not like the justice system?
All right, it's been a very stressful half hour.

Speaker 2 (20:02):
It has.

Speaker 4 (20:04):
You're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI AM
six forty.

Speaker 1 (20:09):
We are on every day from one until four o'clock
and after four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand on
the iHeart app. So you missed the first half hour
already you got to go there after four o'clock and
catch up. Moistline is eighty seven seven Moist eighty six
eight seven seven Moist eighty six for Friday? Or can
you use the talkback feature again on this all purpose
iHeartRadio app. Oh, the Benandez brothers came up in your newscast. Yes,

(20:37):
these are two. More like to give them, obviously, the
same treatment that I want to give Coburger. This is
what happens because they weren't sentenced to death. Now they
have a really good shot at parole. Now they could
be let out and the new something is supposed to
make a decision on commuting their sentence with LA before

(21:00):
Labor Day, so we might be six weeks away. And
now suddenly which one has got released early? While?

Speaker 3 (21:09):
Uh, the one that's in the hospital, Eric, Eric, they're
both the same to me.

Speaker 1 (21:14):
All I know now is one as hair and one's bald.
But before that I just could never like separate the two.
So Eric's been been released to a hospital for kidney stones.

Speaker 3 (21:26):
Come on, now, I've never had a kidney stone. My
dad gets them. They are very, very painful. But I
don't know if that I mean, well, I to say,
but I'm not so sure that's a reason to be pleased.

Speaker 1 (21:38):
That's not a medical emergency. Let him lay on the
floor floor, screaming in pain until he passes the thing.
He'll pass him. And if they if he doesn't pass him,
oh wow, what a loss. And and Gara goes, is
they see? I wondered did they fake this? Is this
a fake kidney stone just to get him out, create

(22:01):
some sympathy, start some momentum. Well, it was already out
last month. It's really not that big a deal. And
you know he's in a lot of pay with the
kidney stone. It's like, but how who are these people
who give a crap about a kidney stone from a
guy who blew his mother's head off. I mean, separate
the dad and all the alleged sexual crimes, right, no

(22:25):
excuse for blowing the mother's head off, for going back
and reloading the guns and coming in while she's trying
to crawl away and a boom is splatting her brains
all over the living room. You really should get out
for that. And who's paying for that kidney stone treatment?
We are, I'll get rid of the kidney stone I

(22:47):
got a vacuum here, let's see what happens. This is
nothing but bad news today. This is just just awful stuff.
I read that Newsom had dinner with the guy who
did the Menendez Netflix show, Ryan Murphy, who's the producer

(23:13):
really well known for doing these docu dramas, and Newsom
hasn't seen it, and he told Murphy, I don't want
to have an influence my decision, and also acknowledged that
Murphy's docu drama is what created this climate where some
of the public what's Menendez released saying really, thanks for

(23:34):
doing that. You really put me in a position here.
So Newsom to me acknowledge that, yeah, without this stupid
docu drama. Did by the way, they get any money
for that? Did they sell rights?

Speaker 2 (23:45):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (23:46):
That's a good question, because you know, I was reading
about Coburger. It's like, well, well, is are we going
to see docu dramas on Coburger And it's going to
manipulate the emotions of you know, silly teenage girls who
are because he looks like a psychopathic geek. Now, but
so did the Menendez brothers, and eventually he's going to

(24:07):
morph into some hottie all like that Luigi guy who
killed the healthcare executive, Luigi Mangione. I had no idea
there were so many teenage girls and girls in their twenties.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
Not just teenage girls.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
There are older people that love the Menendez brothers, and
I'm sure love Luigi Menngioni and all those people.

Speaker 1 (24:30):
When when did this happen? When did this start? I mean,
these are brutal murders. These are no question about brutal,
unwarranted murders. And Coburger is going to get this treatment
soon too, eh.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
I don't think he's as cute. I mean, I don't
think the Menandez brothers are cute, but I know lots
of people do.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
I don't know. Coburger just he looks a little jeebe,
so I don't know.

Speaker 3 (24:58):
I'll be surprised if he gets the same treatment as
the minimums.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
I'm just thinking after time, you know, maybe you know,
somebody will start, you know, a website or a TikTok
video stream. Maybe yeah, you know, women, these young women,
there's really they're damaged. I get maybe it was the
COVID lockdown.

Speaker 2 (25:21):
Oh no, this has been going on before that.

Speaker 1 (25:24):
They don't develop normal relationships with guys. Everybody talks about
guys having dysfunctional relationship or dysfunctional feelings towards women. There's
a lot of women who are not.

Speaker 2 (25:34):
All quite right.

Speaker 1 (25:41):
Here's another one. So now the Wall Street Journal has
this exclusive about the Jeffrey Epstein case. When the Attorney General,
Pam Bondi, finally went through the documents earlier this year,
and this may explain some of the behavior you've seen
out of the White House in recent weeks. They discovered

(26:03):
that Donald Trump's name appeared multiple times. Now, I don't
know if this means anything, because it's been documented for
twenty years that Trump and Epstein were close buddies and
they had I read I read the other day that
they had they put on a party, two guys, untold

(26:23):
number of hot young women. They were the two guys.
They hosted the party, and eventually Trump kicked Epstein out
of the club in mar A Lago, supposedly because Epstein
started going after the teenage daughter of one of the
members and Trump thought that that was a little much.

(26:45):
There's a lot of big names in these Epstein files,
according to the Wall Street Journal, whatever their sources were,
So there's a lot of people mentioned in the records
because who didn't necessarily do anything bad. It's who Epstein
hung out with. He hung out with some famous people

(27:07):
because he supplied girls. There were other famous people he
hung out with because he had a lot of money,
and he also wanted to run in those circles. The
official said that there was a briefing Trump was told

(27:28):
Trump's appearance in the documents wasn't the focus. They said
there was unverified hearsay about many people, including Trump. I
wonder what the unverified heresay is. Often that's true. Hearsay
is always a dodge. This is not a court of law.
You can't use hearsay at a court of law. And

(27:49):
that they said the Justice Department didn't plan to release
any more documents because the material contained child pornography and
victims personal information. Well, which one of the people in
the report was looking at. The child pornography was that
Epstein's private collection or was this the stuff that he

(28:11):
took photos and videos of, so he'd have compromising material.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
Well, hopefully we're going to hear from his former girlfriend
Glaine Maxwell.

Speaker 1 (28:20):
Oh, yeah, she's supposed to.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
Yeah, she's been subpoenat.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
That can be a public hearing. I hope, oh, I hope.
I was waiting for her to crack. I mean, I
guess while Epstein was alive, she didn't want to betray him.
That's another one, right, Okay, like the girls going after
Luigi and the menandas brothers. Now here's a middle aged

(28:44):
woman and she's loyal to Jeffrey Epstein when she helped him,
you know, buy all these fourteen year olds and fly
them away into sex slavery.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
She's still alive.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
I wonder how long well she's been safe in prison.
But she wants to get out. She wants to cut
a deal. Finally, she never cut a deal. They would
have given it to her. If she would lay out
bigger fish to go get or testify against Epstein, then
they would they would have given it. Because right now
she's got a sentence. I don't think she gets out

(29:15):
until she's in her eighties.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
So but all you know what, all the Epstein headlines,
it's like every sex scandal where there's a black book,
there's some madam, there's some Brady. That's right. They never
released the black books. They never release the customers. That
always ends up being a lot of hyphen and then

(29:39):
a big disappointment.

Speaker 3 (29:40):
Didn't we hear from didn't we find out names from
Heidi Fly's as black Book or No?

Speaker 2 (29:45):
I can't remember. That was so long ago.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
We had Heidie Flices on the show a long time ago.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
Yeah, I thought we got some names. I thought there
was some names released, but.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
Yeah, I don't know. They're all dead now anyway. Yeah,
don't I don't remember.

Speaker 3 (30:01):
See, all you horny guys have to go after underage girls, Well,
could we not do.

Speaker 1 (30:09):
The all you many? All you going after underage don't.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
You say sometimes say you women?

Speaker 1 (30:17):
I'm right about that.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
I'm right about that.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
You know I uh, I can't tell that story. Please.

Speaker 3 (30:30):
We almost got you at a confessional mode.

Speaker 2 (30:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
Maybe I'll tell you that off the air.

Speaker 2 (30:36):
Okay, I'm going to run in there.

Speaker 1 (30:37):
About a friend of mine. I am no wrongdoing on
my part, but I was near.

Speaker 2 (30:43):
I'll be the judge of that.

Speaker 1 (30:44):
Oh well, I left. I left the wrongdoing room before
I witnessed anyone.

Speaker 2 (30:50):
Do you report it?

Speaker 1 (30:51):
Well? I never I never saw that. You knew after
the fact I heard about something. Uh, Debra Mark, you're
at a line, you're out a line.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
You're listening to John Cobbels on demand from KFI AM sixty.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
KFI AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
You know you can follow us. We'll lead you to
bad places. At John Cobelt Radio. We're listing one hundred
followers away from thirty thousand. So be the thirty thousandth
followers sometime today and you win nothing. You get nothing

(31:36):
for that gives us a big round number. Well, as
long as we're in the store here, might as well
segue into this story because there's really no other place
to put this, the David Geffen story. Did you see this?

Speaker 2 (31:49):
I did not.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
David Geffen is the famous media mogul record company executive.
He was involved with a lot of the most famous
bands and singers, especially in a back in the seventies,
and he also produced films. He's eighty two years old now.

(32:10):
He has been sued by not making any of this up.
His estranged husband, a young gay black man named Donovan Michaels,
who he retrieved out of the foster system back in
twenty sixteen. Donovan Michaels is now thirty two. They met

(32:37):
on Seeking Arrangements dot com.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
I've never heard of that.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
You know what that's about.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
Well, I can imagine John.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
If you're a rich guy and you're looking for a
I think they call it armcandy. You'll provide whatever money
they need, clothing, shoes, handbags, handbags. It's called Seeking Arrangements
dot Com. And you know they're looking for something in return.

(33:11):
It's old rich guys looking for relations it says here
with younger singles. They want some kind of and the
girls watch some kind of compensation. On the night they met,
David Geffen allegedly paid Donovan Michael's ten thousand dollars to
have sex with him. They continue the relationship eventually got married. However,

(33:38):
David Geffen, who's worth billions, never set up a prenup. Boy,
that's really stupid.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
That's really done.

Speaker 1 (33:49):
You're marrying. You're marrying a guy that you met on
Seeking Arrangements dot Com. You're eighty two.

Speaker 2 (33:57):
He must have been Wow, he must have been really
good in bed.

Speaker 1 (34:01):
Uh. Now I got to think about what that might entail.
I'm just saying, how badly, why would why would you

(34:22):
go to Seeking Arrangements dot Com marry the guy then
get divorced, not have a prenup? He must have it.
He must have dementia. Michaels, it's not even his real name.
His real name is David Armstrong and uh he's suing
Geffen for breach of contract, saying the billionaire promised to
take care of him financially but left him broken, homeless.

(34:45):
He said it was like the movie Trading Places. Michaels
was used as a trophy to show off to his
rich and famous friends. Uh he's not bad looking, he's tall, thin.
I mean, I wouldn't go pay for him. But it

(35:07):
was a sick game, he wrote in the complaint, Michaels
became a prop in Geffen's theater of virtue, created around
his evidence of Geffen's supposed altruism. You mean out, but
he was helping out a poor black kid, and Geffen
was showing off about how wonderful he was while privately

(35:28):
using him as a sexual commodity. What's wrong with people?
The attorney for Geffen, Patty Glazer, said there was no
contract expressed, written, oral, or implied that has ever existed.
We will vigorously and righteously defend against the false, pathetic lawsuit.

(35:53):
The complaint says that Geffen enjoyed physically dominating his sexual
partners and causing them pain.

Speaker 2 (36:01):
Oh, this type.

Speaker 1 (36:03):
Of sexual behavior triggered childhood trauma and caused him digestive issues.
It stinks. I don't have to know what kind of
what kind of sexual behavior causes digestifies?

Speaker 2 (36:15):
Oh, what do you think headaches?

Speaker 1 (36:19):
He forced drugs. He forced him to use drugs such
as cocaine and molly. They would do it on a
the Billionaire is super yacht in front of his friends.
Would critique every aspect of Michael's appearance, and the mere
existence of an ingrown hair would raise Geffen's ire And.

Speaker 2 (36:37):
Why did you stay?

Speaker 1 (36:40):
Yeah, this is after after nine years an ingrown hair?

Speaker 2 (36:44):
Well that's not that sexy.

Speaker 1 (36:50):
This is not where I thought the show was going today.
That's why you got to tune in every day. We're
getting these moods and yeah, there's stop. Yeah, Michael said,
he began re evaluating his life and relationship.

Speaker 2 (37:05):
That's probably a good thing.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
Yeah, I'd say, you got some crazy guy forcing you
into violent sex and screaming at you over an ingrown hair.

Speaker 2 (37:17):
Our lives are so boring, John.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
Yes, I feel so sleepy and dull.

Speaker 3 (37:26):
Wow, I'm having digestive issues now thinking about all this, just.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
Listening to that, all right? When we come back, Katie
Grimes is coming on. Jennifer Newsom. She's one and a
half half of this this grifter team. Gavin's wife whose
credibility is so low she could not even convince a
jury that Harvey Weinstein sexually assaulted her. That's how hard

(37:54):
is it to convince a jury that Harvey Weinstein did
something bad to you? Well, she couldn't do it, if
you remember that case. She makes gender justice movies. We've
talked about this from time to time. But what's worse
is she sells them to the state public education system.

(38:16):
Children are forced to watch these gender justice movies. In return,
she charged the taxpayers one and a half million dollars.
That's right, we paid Jennifer Newsom a million and a
half dollars so that children would be forced to watch
gender justice movies. That's next, Katie Grimes, Californiaglobe dot com,
