(00:59):
be here to four.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Then Hanway comes and he'll be on from four until eight.
And I am.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
I'm told there's some kind of stupid stunt.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
I've got to oh, it's beyond stupid.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
It's beyond stupid.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Beyond it's ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Actually, well, I came in and Shannon looks at me
with like a grim face, and I go what she goes,
this crosses the line?
Speaker 3 (01:25):
It does?
Speaker 1 (01:25):
It kind of crosses the line.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
And then she looked at my wife and said, you're
going to be divorced by five o'clock.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
So I don't know what they have me doing here.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
Around three point fifteen, John is going to prance around here.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
But prance is a bad start. Right there.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
You're going to prank.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
I'm going to prance.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
It requires prancing.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I'm not showing off skin, am I?
Speaker 4 (01:51):
No, No, it's it's no, you're not You're not showing
off skin.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
But it requires you to prance.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
It requires me to prance.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Yes, you'll understand once.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Am I going to be a sugar plum fairy? None
of this is good. I used to come and enjoy this,
and now I spend the whole afternoon nervous and worried
about what you are gonna do it. She's got a
weird I don't know what you would call it, like,
I can't. She likes to dress me up once a
year in a weird aut.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
It's a weird fetish. I guess.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yeah. Most of the time it's it's a leopard. But
I think you cornered the market on the Leopard outfit.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
It's actually not Leopard this time, believe it or not.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
It's not okay all right, because I take the costumes
home and I throw them in a corner in my closet,
and one day, I don't know, I opened something up
and I was all these Leopard outfits.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
It's like, what's this?
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Oh? These are mine? I really I'd forgotten about them.
So you don't want to go in my closet. Oh no, no, yeah,
I'm let me tell you this though. We want to think.
By the way we're at I probably should tell people
at home. We're so used to be in here after
fifteen I forget that. You know, we've got new listeners
all the time, and they're probably going, well, what is this.
(03:06):
We are at the Anaheim White House Chef Bruno, his charity,
his cattery, his club, and every week he feeds twenty
five thousand kids all over Orange County and beyond. And
this is the big fundraiser that we do every year
in order to get him, you know, enough food in
pasta and to pay for the expenses to get all
(03:29):
the dishes to all the different towns in the area
and We've been doing this fifteen years and it's been
really really good for him and really really good for
the kids. He feeds them all year round. And the
Anaheim White House is his restaurant. It's eighty seven South
Anaheim Boulevard. We're not far from the five Freeway Harvard
(03:49):
Boulevard exit. So if you're on the freeway right now,
anywhere close, come see us. There's going to be a
show going on to late o'clock tonight. Like I said,
we'll be year to four and then Conway comes on
from four to eight. We also want to thank the
beautiful Hilton anaheimks for hosting our KFI Pastathon crew. These
guys used to have to sleep in their car. They
(04:13):
used to be sleeping in the street. Now they're at
the Hilton Anaheim. It is now fully renovated and it
has reimagined every space, from its luxurious new guest rooms
and sparkling rooftop pool to the brand new restaurants and lounges.
The ideal staycation spot just steps from Disneyland Resort and
the Anaheim Convention Center. Book your getaway at Hilton Anaheim
(04:36):
Hotel dot com. Okay, I want to talk, maybe next segment,
you want to talk about your neighborhood issue. Oh yeah,
she's got one of these new housing developments moving into
the neighborhood and she was sending the texts and news
(05:01):
articles on the weekend.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
Yes, outranged over this, and yes we need more people
to sign.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
This is do they do this in Orange County? See?
Speaker 2 (05:09):
We're unfortunately in La County? How many of you from
Orange County?
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Here? All right?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
A whole different world down here, isn't it? You guys
listen just to hear about Los Angeles crumbling?
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Right?
Speaker 2 (05:24):
It validates your choices? Yeah right, but it makes you
feel good. It's like, you know, we did the right thing, honey,
you know we Well, let me tell you the new
thing in Los Angeles is you could wake up one
day and I'm not exaggerating, right, you correct me if
I'm overdoing this. With the new laws they have, you
(05:45):
can end up with like a seven or eight story
apartment building next door to you. In a residential zone.
You can't even though let's say there's forty houses on
your block, right and all forty our family homes one
in two stories.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Developer could come.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
In and buy a house for sale and then put
up four stories, six stories, eight stories, depends exactly where
it is, but that's the.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Gist of it.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
And you know some of that's going to be affordable housing.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
And you know what that is.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
And now your neighborhood's completely changed. They don't have parking
for it. They don't have to supply parking on the lot,
and there's no parking. You're looking very, very depressed. This
is coming to your neighborhood. Am I scaring you? Am
I frightening you?
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Yeah? I think it's actually a statewide law.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
But Los Angeles is accelerated story we did yesterday in
Santa Monica.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
People woke up.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
I don't know if you have been to Santa Monica,
Ocean Avenue right across the street from a beautiful park
overlooking the beach and the ocean, right and these people
woke up and forty homeless people had moved into a
building on their block, forty of them, some of them
were flown out of state. And everybody freaked out and
(07:10):
they couldn't find who is in charge of this center.
It suddenly became a center, and they couldn't find what
group was behind this, who had financed this move.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Nobody knew. They went to the mayor.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
She didn't know, city council, didn't know county wreck nobody knew.
It was just forty people, and they started asking where
are you from Alabama?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
And Alabama?
Speaker 2 (07:37):
You from Alabama? You came back? Or were you in
that home in Santa Monica. It was it was for
people with issues, So I don't know Alabama, Tennessee I
think was another one term.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
And this is what they do.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
In the middle of the night, vans show up, people
compiling out of the vans and they move into this
I guess it used to be a senior living center
and it was very peaceful and they're very quiet, very
very old people. And now you had like who liked
at least forty alcoholics moving in who were or were
not have not entirely recovered, or their drug addicts.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Or who knows what.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
And the thing is this neighborhood had just beaten back
another organization that was going to turn it into a homeless.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Shelter, and nobody had told the residents.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
And you know what the funny thing is is that
you know that the politicians, if there's a homeless camp
or a homeless housing complex by them or the affordable
housing or a sober living home in their neighborhood. They're
not going to stand for it. But they don't care
about other people. They don't care about what we think.
And again I don't have anything against.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Any of that, but there's a place for that, right exactly,
And it.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Isn't next door to you know, people's families.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
I mean, I have to afford to live on the
west side, right, So I don't live on the west side.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
I'm going to start publishing photos of your home and.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Not get to published photos of yours.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
She's doing Okay, she's just she's just aspirational.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
The dream is to move to the west.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
You can't live in brent Witter, Beverly Hills or you know, Malibu.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Right, I've accepted that, So I'm not going to Right
I wanted there, I would not be wanted there. I
don't think I wanted anywhere to be offered.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
You're kind of noisy for the west side of the Yeah,
I been told so the h So this is what
this is what people have to have to deal with,
and and and the philosophy of like the LA kind
of supervisors and Karen Bash and you know how much
I love her is is that we it has to
it's equity. Every neighborhood has to accept this. And you
(09:59):
were saying, is right. It's like you work really hard,
you make whatever money you've made, and that affords you
a certain town or a certain neighborhood. And I think
most normal people are comfortable with the fact that there's
always You're always going to have a nicer house than
someone else, and another person will have a nicer house
than you, and you just do the best you can
(10:21):
in life, and you find a peaceful place and in
the end it doesn't really matter, right, because you just
take care of your family and friends. And how elaborate
your house is or another guy has, you know, a
thirty two room mansion or somebody else is in a
three room.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Apartment, doesn't matter all right. Everybody tries to get wherever
they can in life.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
That's not the only way you judge the success of life.
But they think, now you're supposed to disturb everybody's everybody's piece, right,
if you're just middle class, suburbian, working class, you're wealthy, whatever,
everybody gets disturbed, and you have to take in what.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
You have taken. Almost people you got to take in
drug addicts.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
You got to take in mental patience, You got to
take in people with alcohol problems.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
You got to take it.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
All the world's problems now, all our families, we got
all our own problems, right, We got our own you know,
wackos that we're dealing with in our family. Now we've
got to deal with every and all these people have
been thrown out of their family homes.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
That's another thing. The families gave up on these guys.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
And it's mostly it's almost all guys, and they, you know,
throw them out of the house because these guys have
been stealing, right, They've been stealing money and stealing jewelry
and this and that and.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
This. This is what we have to deal with.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
And now she's got one of these situations coming up
in where she is.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
So we'll talk about her issue when we come back.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
And we will continue here live from Hell.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Are we Anaheim? Yes, Anaheim White House? All right?
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Bring money from Bruno and Katerina's club. We're feeding children
here all right.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
Makes them nose so be you know, people think we're
all having a good time. All right, We're alive from
the Anaheim Restaurant, the Anaheim White House Restaurant in eight
eighty seven South Anaheim Boulevard. You come here and you
donate money to Katarina's Club. You can also go to
KFIAM six forty dot com, slash pastathon, and you can
(12:20):
follow us all at John co Belt Radio on social media.
I'm sure there's gonna be all kinds of photos and
videos on all our platforms.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
All right, So we were.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Talking about how now in California, you're the house next
door to you, across the street from you, or down
the block has suddenly become a multi family homeless shelter.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
You can end up with.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Eight stories of apartments, right, not just a duplex or
four plex, but this colossal thing.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Now you have something coming in your neighborhood. What is this?
Speaker 4 (12:52):
So there's a golf course close to my neighborhood and
they want to build I mean a lot of sordable
housing apartments. I mean it's going to be so crazy,
and you know what, the traffic is going to be
a nightmare.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
There's there's no place for us.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Like three hundred and ninety eight.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Something, I mean, I sent it to you. Yeah, I
mean it's it's beyond I mean, it is.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
It is crazy. I'm let me see it igitate in
a neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
And certainly they're putting up a three hundred and ninety
eight unit apartment building. I guess how many holes on
the golf course are they eating up?
Speaker 4 (13:26):
So it's they're seeking to build three hundred and ninety
eight housing units and they're trying to use ABE twenty eleven,
a state law meant to streamline housing on appropriate commercial corridors,
to get approval. And what's interesting is when I when
we sent this petition to other neighbors, the Woodland Hills
(13:47):
country Club, they kind of backpedle.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Oh, it's it's not approved. Oh you know, this is
something we're thinking of. Oh you know, all these excuses, right.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
And just trying to make people feel that this isn't
going to happen. It is going to happen because they
already did get preliminary approval and people don't want that.
I mean, it's the traffic is going to be horrible,
and again it's going to be a mix of affordable
housing and all these apartment buildings, and that's not the
type of neighborhood that it is. And I'm not trying
(14:16):
to be an elitist at all, but no, I'm really
I'm not. I'm just saying that the neighborhood that I
moved into, there were reasons why I moved into the
neighborhood that I moved into.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
I think everybody identifies with that, regardless of you know,
what kind of neighborhood you have. You don't suddenly want
three hundred ninety eight apartments. That's eight hundred people.
Speaker 4 (14:36):
But that's what I mean, And I mean it's there's
no room and the traffic mess to get around what
would be a complete nightmare. I mean nightmare is going
to be a nightmare to get into our homes. I
mean it's already where I live, there are already narrow streets,
and it's already you know, kind of a fire hazard
area anyway, and to have all of this and all
(14:59):
the construction not. But the thing is is that again
they're not asking us, Hey, are you guys okay with this?
Speaker 3 (15:06):
Do you think no? And then the thing is, let's
just say I want to move.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
I decide, okay, I'm not interested. Who's no one's going
to buy our house?
Speaker 3 (15:13):
Because they're going to say, okay, well we don't want
this either.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Oh your property value just crashed over the weekend.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
So I would like to say to the politicians also, well,
how would you feel? And that's what gets me so
angry is that the politicians they're okay with this stuff,
not just you know, in my neighborhood, but what John
was saying in Santa Monica, say, you know, when you're
trying to change these these established places, it's just it's
(15:41):
just not it's just not right.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
No, that's why we want.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
What they've passed in Sacramento repeatedly just tears up all
the local zoning laws. Now it's whatever Gavin Newsom says,
and he's going to decide who you're living next to,
and what kind of people are living next to you,
and how many of them without you know, there's over for.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
The car to decide who he's going to live next
to and how many people.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
You think this is he just bought a house last
earlier this year nine million dollars.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
You know I can't afford that.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
No, well, the governor's salaries, I take a couple hundred
thousand dollars. I mean, what nine million dollars, And there
is no three hundred and ninety eight unit development and
opening up on his block right, there's no sober living
house there, there's no homeless shelter opening up there. And
(16:31):
it's just, you know, everybody else, we've got to put
up with this nonsense.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
And I we're the bad guys.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
We're the bad Yeah, I say, you're not compassionate, you're
being elitist.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
It's like, no, well, let's be honest anybody that you
talk to. I mean, seriously, I don't care what neighborhood
you live in. Do you do you want a sober
living house right next to where your children are?
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Probably not.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
No, I grew up in a nineteen thousand dollars house.
My parents would have absolutely lost their minds if suddenly
one of these centers opened up across the street. Are
like lower middle class, blue collar families. But you know,
all the homes are neat and clean and orderly and
all that, and people were happy and we were all
content in those neighborhoods, and nobody would want this stuff
moving in. It's just I think the wealthier people screen ladder.
(17:15):
That's and they got and they got the money. There's
usually a lawyer neighborhood.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
I don't know about this. You've got to.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Find lawyer friends in the neighborhood. That's what you got
to do.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
It a wealthy neighborhood. This is not Palisades.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
It's just a normal neighborhood in the.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
West San Fernando Valley.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
I don't know. It's very frustrating.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
You to be in for a long fight.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
We come back here at the pastathon and again you
can donate KFI AM six forty dot com slash Pastathon

Blade, thank you? All right when we come back. This
is a new thing. You may have heard of the
AI influencers that you may be following. I don't know
if this is an AI influencer crowd here. I'm not
sure people are Orange County You're a little more grounded.
(24:08):
But apparently AI influencers are now big hits. These are
fake people selling real products, and they're also making money,
and I don't really understand that. So I'll tell you
all about it. Because I was talking to a friend
over Thanksgiving. A high school friend had spoken to him
a little while and he told me, you know, he's
(24:29):
I'm angry about politics on one side, and that he
gets online and he starts arguing with people.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
And I told him, you know, you're arguing with bots.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
Because they do that. They put fake people on your feed.
And let's say somebody says I can't stand Trump or
I love Trump. You'll get into an argument who doesn't exist.
And you could spend hours arguing with this fake people.
It's going on all over the place. I'll tell you
more about the influencers when we come back.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
She has. Yeah, I'm not wearing the outfit when you

Speaker 3 (26:55):
Maybe that old John. That's a good idea.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
No, that is not a good idea, and I'm sorry
I say that. All right, let me see what it's
heart key track of time here. I told you about
the influencers.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Yes, no, I don't.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
Oh you know what, Actually, no, she's not an influencer,
So I take that back.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
No, I do not.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Okay, you ever hear of Let's see how he Pronouncesana Lopez.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
Noitana Lopez.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
She she travels, if you know, to her site, I
guess on Instagram, she's always traveling between New York City
and Catalonia, Spain, because you know, you can put your
bio on there. And she has beauty brands. She's promoting
a lot of stuff from Black Friday, her favorite songs,
posts a lot of pictures of her looking provocative. Right,
(27:45):
So she's got quite a following, making eleven thousand dollars
a month.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Yeah, I need to do somebody.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
I need to beence.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
You should.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
You should just did to dress up in a leopard
outfit every day and I will eleven thousand dollars. She's
twenty seven years old, but she doesn't exist.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Oh, that's right, she's Ai.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
She's AI and she has thousands of followers who get
caught up in her life.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
And but wait a second, who gets that money? Then
she's fake.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
I'll take it her fake kids.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
That's weird.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Yeah, she makes eleven thousand.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I guess the company that creates the are I guess.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
So she's part of a new breed here.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
There are two music acts that have hit the top
of the charts, Solomon Ray and a country band called
Breaking Rust. And they're fake bands that made fake music
and they have hit records. There's some blonde bombshell influencer
named Mia Zelu and she apparently created a sensation at
(28:59):
the wimbled tennis tournament.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
I guess she.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Posted photos of herself at Wimbledon, except she didn't exist.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
This is what everybody's doing in.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
The world now, I understand.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
They sit home and.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Scrolling away looking at fake people and getting caught up
in the fake people's lives.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
This is the end of days, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (29:21):
I think we need to get on this AI train.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
And it says, you know what, they're better than better
than regular influencers. Somebody just breaks something.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Huh uh the regular because because it says here, the
AI influencers never have a bad hair day, that's true, right,
They never miss a note when recording, you know, the
recording session is not even one and done.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
It's uh.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
They always on time, never complain, and don't get caught
up in any weird you know, sex scandals or financial scandals.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
And so there's an.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Agency now and I Tana who I mentioned she promotes
Calvin Klein, Prada, Samsung, and YouTube. Well yeah no she
doesn't for Amazon, but all those companies use other AI influencers.
So there isn't even a market if you wanted to
be like a commercial spokesperson, which is really what influencers are.
(30:18):
Now that's going by the wayside. Now, why should they
spend ten thousand dollars a month.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
On that influencer. You're just too late.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
You've been already replaced it. You've been replaced with AI
before you even started. And it says, uh oh, sometime
this month, Ititana will be able to hold a five
minute conversation with fans who will pay to chat with her. Yes,
there's a new platform called fanview, and you pay money
(30:49):
to talk to a fake person.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
We're in the wrong business here.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
We are. I don't know if I'm going to continue
doing that.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
There's no point. Just create like a fake cartoon. Me
and a fake cartoon.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
You.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
You're about halfway there already. Yeah, you're the closest thing
to a cartoon. I know.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
All right, we come back with.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
You too, John.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Look, that's the only reason I'm doing this, this whatever
terrible get up I gotta wear next hour three fifteen
is because I torture her all year and I feel
like this is her payback, So it's only fair that
she gets one day too.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
Let me tell you this is a good one. This
is a good one.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Yeah yeah, Now what did Enny say? This crosses the line?
Speaker 3 (31:35):
Does cross the line a little bit?
Speaker 1 (31:37):
Wait, my wife already drove home.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
She did to change.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
I just want out. I want to out.
Speaker 2 (31:45):

Katarina's club.
Speaker 1 (31:52):

money and come here and drop.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
Then Hanway comes and he'll be on from four until eight.
And I am.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
I'm told there's some kind of stupid stunt.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
I've got to oh, it's beyond stupid.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
It's beyond stupid.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Beyond it's ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Actually, well, I came in and Shannon looks at me
with like a grim face, and I go what she goes,
this crosses the line?
Speaker 3 (01:25):
It does?
Speaker 1 (01:25):
It kind of crosses the line.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
And then she looked at my wife and said, you're
going to be divorced by five o'clock.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
So I don't know what they have me doing here.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
Around three point fifteen, John is going to prance around here.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
But prance is a bad start. Right there.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
You're going to prank.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
I'm going to prance.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
It requires prancing.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I'm not showing off skin, am I?
Speaker 4 (01:51):
No, No, it's it's no, you're not You're not showing
off skin.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
But it requires you to prance.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
It requires me to prance.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Yes, you'll understand once.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Am I going to be a sugar plum fairy? None
of this is good. I used to come and enjoy this,
and now I spend the whole afternoon nervous and worried
about what you are gonna do it. She's got a
weird I don't know what you would call it, like,
I can't. She likes to dress me up once a
year in a weird aut.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
It's a weird fetish. I guess.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yeah. Most of the time it's it's a leopard. But
I think you cornered the market on the Leopard outfit.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
It's actually not Leopard this time, believe it or not.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
It's not okay all right, because I take the costumes
home and I throw them in a corner in my closet,
and one day, I don't know, I opened something up
and I was all these Leopard outfits.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
It's like, what's this?
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Oh? These are mine? I really I'd forgotten about them.
So you don't want to go in my closet. Oh no, no, yeah,
I'm let me tell you this though. We want to think.
By the way we're at I probably should tell people
at home. We're so used to be in here after
fifteen I forget that. You know, we've got new listeners
all the time, and they're probably going, well, what is this.
(03:06):
We are at the Anaheim White House Chef Bruno, his charity,
his cattery, his club, and every week he feeds twenty
five thousand kids all over Orange County and beyond. And
this is the big fundraiser that we do every year
in order to get him, you know, enough food in
pasta and to pay for the expenses to get all
(03:29):
the dishes to all the different towns in the area
and We've been doing this fifteen years and it's been
really really good for him and really really good for
the kids. He feeds them all year round. And the
Anaheim White House is his restaurant. It's eighty seven South
Anaheim Boulevard. We're not far from the five Freeway Harvard
(03:49):
Boulevard exit. So if you're on the freeway right now,
anywhere close, come see us. There's going to be a
show going on to late o'clock tonight. Like I said,
we'll be year to four and then Conway comes on
from four to eight. We also want to thank the
beautiful Hilton anaheimks for hosting our KFI Pastathon crew. These
guys used to have to sleep in their car. They
(04:13):
used to be sleeping in the street. Now they're at
the Hilton Anaheim. It is now fully renovated and it
has reimagined every space, from its luxurious new guest rooms
and sparkling rooftop pool to the brand new restaurants and lounges.
The ideal staycation spot just steps from Disneyland Resort and
the Anaheim Convention Center. Book your getaway at Hilton Anaheim
(04:36):
Hotel dot com. Okay, I want to talk, maybe next segment,
you want to talk about your neighborhood issue. Oh yeah,
she's got one of these new housing developments moving into
the neighborhood and she was sending the texts and news
(05:01):
articles on the weekend.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
Yes, outranged over this, and yes we need more people
to sign.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
This is do they do this in Orange County? See?
Speaker 2 (05:09):
We're unfortunately in La County? How many of you from
Orange County?
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Here? All right?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
A whole different world down here, isn't it? You guys
listen just to hear about Los Angeles crumbling?
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Right?
Speaker 2 (05:24):
It validates your choices? Yeah right, but it makes you
feel good. It's like, you know, we did the right thing, honey,
you know we Well, let me tell you the new
thing in Los Angeles is you could wake up one
day and I'm not exaggerating, right, you correct me if
I'm overdoing this. With the new laws they have, you
(05:45):
can end up with like a seven or eight story
apartment building next door to you. In a residential zone.
You can't even though let's say there's forty houses on
your block, right and all forty our family homes one
in two stories.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Developer could come.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
In and buy a house for sale and then put
up four stories, six stories, eight stories, depends exactly where
it is, but that's the.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Gist of it.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
And you know some of that's going to be affordable housing.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
And you know what that is.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
And now your neighborhood's completely changed. They don't have parking
for it. They don't have to supply parking on the lot,
and there's no parking. You're looking very, very depressed. This
is coming to your neighborhood. Am I scaring you? Am
I frightening you?
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Yeah? I think it's actually a statewide law.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
But Los Angeles is accelerated story we did yesterday in
Santa Monica.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
People woke up.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
I don't know if you have been to Santa Monica,
Ocean Avenue right across the street from a beautiful park
overlooking the beach and the ocean, right and these people
woke up and forty homeless people had moved into a
building on their block, forty of them, some of them
were flown out of state. And everybody freaked out and
(07:10):
they couldn't find who is in charge of this center.
It suddenly became a center, and they couldn't find what
group was behind this, who had financed this move.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Nobody knew. They went to the mayor.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
She didn't know, city council, didn't know county wreck nobody knew.
It was just forty people, and they started asking where
are you from Alabama?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
And Alabama?
Speaker 2 (07:37):
You from Alabama? You came back? Or were you in
that home in Santa Monica. It was it was for
people with issues, So I don't know Alabama, Tennessee I
think was another one term.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
And this is what they do.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
In the middle of the night, vans show up, people
compiling out of the vans and they move into this
I guess it used to be a senior living center
and it was very peaceful and they're very quiet, very
very old people. And now you had like who liked
at least forty alcoholics moving in who were or were
not have not entirely recovered, or their drug addicts.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Or who knows what.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
And the thing is this neighborhood had just beaten back
another organization that was going to turn it into a homeless.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Shelter, and nobody had told the residents.
Speaker 4 (08:29):
And you know what the funny thing is is that
you know that the politicians, if there's a homeless camp
or a homeless housing complex by them or the affordable
housing or a sober living home in their neighborhood. They're
not going to stand for it. But they don't care
about other people. They don't care about what we think.
And again I don't have anything against.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Any of that, but there's a place for that, right exactly,
And it.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Isn't next door to you know, people's families.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
I mean, I have to afford to live on the
west side, right, So I don't live on the west side.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
I'm going to start publishing photos of your home and.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Not get to published photos of yours.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
She's doing Okay, she's just she's just aspirational.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
The dream is to move to the west.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
You can't live in brent Witter, Beverly Hills or you know, Malibu.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Right, I've accepted that, So I'm not going to Right
I wanted there, I would not be wanted there. I
don't think I wanted anywhere to be offered.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
You're kind of noisy for the west side of the Yeah,
I been told so the h So this is what
this is what people have to have to deal with,
and and and the philosophy of like the LA kind
of supervisors and Karen Bash and you know how much
I love her is is that we it has to
it's equity. Every neighborhood has to accept this. And you
(09:59):
were saying, is right. It's like you work really hard,
you make whatever money you've made, and that affords you
a certain town or a certain neighborhood. And I think
most normal people are comfortable with the fact that there's
always You're always going to have a nicer house than
someone else, and another person will have a nicer house
than you, and you just do the best you can
(10:21):
in life, and you find a peaceful place and in
the end it doesn't really matter, right, because you just
take care of your family and friends. And how elaborate
your house is or another guy has, you know, a
thirty two room mansion or somebody else is in a
three room.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Apartment, doesn't matter all right. Everybody tries to get wherever
they can in life.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
That's not the only way you judge the success of life.
But they think, now you're supposed to disturb everybody's everybody's piece, right,
if you're just middle class, suburbian, working class, you're wealthy, whatever,
everybody gets disturbed, and you have to take in what.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
You have taken. Almost people you got to take in
drug addicts.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
You got to take in mental patience, You got to
take in people with alcohol problems.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
You got to take it.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
All the world's problems now, all our families, we got
all our own problems, right, We got our own you know,
wackos that we're dealing with in our family. Now we've
got to deal with every and all these people have
been thrown out of their family homes.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
That's another thing. The families gave up on these guys.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
And it's mostly it's almost all guys, and they, you know,
throw them out of the house because these guys have
been stealing, right, They've been stealing money and stealing jewelry
and this and that and.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
This. This is what we have to deal with.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
And now she's got one of these situations coming up
in where she is.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
So we'll talk about her issue when we come back.
Speaker 2 (11:34):

the block has suddenly become a multi family homeless shelter.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
You can end up with.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Eight stories of apartments, right, not just a duplex or
four plex, but this colossal thing.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Now you have something coming in your neighborhood. What is this?
Speaker 4 (12:52):
So there's a golf course close to my neighborhood and
they want to build I mean a lot of sordable
housing apartments. I mean it's going to be so crazy,
and you know what, the traffic is going to be
a nightmare.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
There's there's no place for us.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Like three hundred and ninety eight.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Something, I mean, I sent it to you. Yeah, I
mean it's it's beyond I mean, it is.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
It is crazy. I'm let me see it igitate in
a neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
And certainly they're putting up a three hundred and ninety
eight unit apartment building. I guess how many holes on
the golf course are they eating up?
Speaker 4 (13:26):
So it's they're seeking to build three hundred and ninety
eight housing units and they're trying to use ABE twenty eleven,
a state law meant to streamline housing on appropriate commercial corridors,
to get approval. And what's interesting is when I when
we sent this petition to other neighbors, the Woodland Hills
(13:47):
country Club, they kind of backpedle.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Oh, it's it's not approved. Oh you know, this is
something we're thinking of. Oh you know, all these excuses, right.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
And just trying to make people feel that this isn't
going to happen. It is going to happen because they
already did get preliminary approval and people don't want that.
I mean, it's the traffic is going to be horrible,
and again it's going to be a mix of affordable
housing and all these apartment buildings, and that's not the
type of neighborhood that it is. And I'm not trying
(14:16):
to be an elitist at all, but no, I'm really
I'm not. I'm just saying that the neighborhood that I
moved into, there were reasons why I moved into the
neighborhood that I moved into.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
I think everybody identifies with that, regardless of you know,
what kind of neighborhood you have. You don't suddenly want
three hundred ninety eight apartments. That's eight hundred people.
Speaker 4 (14:36):
But that's what I mean, And I mean it's there's
no room and the traffic mess to get around what
would be a complete nightmare. I mean nightmare is going
to be a nightmare to get into our homes. I
mean it's already where I live, there are already narrow streets,
and it's already you know, kind of a fire hazard
area anyway, and to have all of this and all
(14:59):
the construction not. But the thing is is that again
they're not asking us, Hey, are you guys okay with this?
Speaker 3 (15:06):
Do you think no? And then the thing is, let's
just say I want to move.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
I decide, okay, I'm not interested. Who's no one's going
to buy our house?
Speaker 3 (15:13):
Because they're going to say, okay, well we don't want
this either.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Oh your property value just crashed over the weekend.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
So I would like to say to the politicians also, well,
how would you feel? And that's what gets me so
angry is that the politicians they're okay with this stuff,
not just you know, in my neighborhood, but what John
was saying in Santa Monica, say, you know, when you're
trying to change these these established places, it's just it's
(15:41):
just not it's just not right.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
No, that's why we want.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
What they've passed in Sacramento repeatedly just tears up all
the local zoning laws. Now it's whatever Gavin Newsom says,
and he's going to decide who you're living next to,
and what kind of people are living next to you,
and how many of them without you know, there's over for.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
The car to decide who he's going to live next
to and how many people.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
You think this is he just bought a house last
earlier this year nine million dollars.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
You know I can't afford that.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
No, well, the governor's salaries, I take a couple hundred
thousand dollars. I mean, what nine million dollars, And there
is no three hundred and ninety eight unit development and
opening up on his block right, there's no sober living
house there, there's no homeless shelter opening up there. And
(16:31):
it's just, you know, everybody else, we've got to put
up with this nonsense.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
And I we're the bad guys.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
We're the bad Yeah, I say, you're not compassionate, you're
being elitist.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
It's like, no, well, let's be honest anybody that you
talk to. I mean, seriously, I don't care what neighborhood
you live in. Do you do you want a sober
living house right next to where your children are?
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Probably not.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
No, I grew up in a nineteen thousand dollars house.
My parents would have absolutely lost their minds if suddenly
one of these centers opened up across the street. Are
like lower middle class, blue collar families. But you know,
all the homes are neat and clean and orderly and
all that, and people were happy and we were all
content in those neighborhoods, and nobody would want this stuff
moving in. It's just I think the wealthier people screen ladder.
(17:15):
That's and they got and they got the money. There's
usually a lawyer neighborhood.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
I don't know about this. You've got to.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Find lawyer friends in the neighborhood. That's what you got
to do.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
It a wealthy neighborhood. This is not Palisades.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
It's just a normal neighborhood in the.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
West San Fernando Valley.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
I don't know. It's very frustrating.
Speaker 1 (17:33):

Speaker 2 (23:45):
Blade, thank you? All right when we come back. This
is a new thing. You may have heard of the
AI influencers that you may be following. I don't know
if this is an AI influencer crowd here. I'm not
sure people are Orange County You're a little more grounded.
(24:08):
But apparently AI influencers are now big hits. These are
fake people selling real products, and they're also making money,
and I don't really understand that. So I'll tell you
all about it. Because I was talking to a friend
over Thanksgiving. A high school friend had spoken to him
a little while and he told me, you know, he's
(24:29):
I'm angry about politics on one side, and that he
gets online and he starts arguing with people.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
And I told him, you know, you're arguing with bots.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
Because they do that. They put fake people on your feed.
And let's say somebody says I can't stand Trump or
I love Trump. You'll get into an argument who doesn't exist.
And you could spend hours arguing with this fake people.
It's going on all over the place. I'll tell you
more about the influencers when we come back.

Speaker 1 (26:35):
I don't know, tom So, Yeah, I don't know what

That's what it is.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
That's it they want to see John dressed up around
three fifteen, and then they'll make.
Speaker 3 (26:48):

Speaker 1 (26:50):
She has. Yeah, I'm not wearing the outfit when you
come to co host. Come on, Oh.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Maybe that old John. That's a good idea.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
No, that is not a good idea, and I'm sorry
I say that. All right, let me see what it's
heart key track of time here. I told you about
the influencers.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Yes, no, I don't.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
Oh you know what, Actually, no, she's not an influencer,
So I take that back.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
No, I do not.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Okay, you ever hear of Let's see how he Pronouncesana Lopez.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
Noitana Lopez.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
She she travels, if you know, to her site, I
guess on Instagram, she's always traveling between New York City
and Catalonia, Spain, because you know, you can put your
bio on there. And she has beauty brands. She's promoting
a lot of stuff from Black Friday, her favorite songs,
posts a lot of pictures of her looking provocative. Right,
(27:45):
So she's got quite a following, making eleven thousand dollars
a month.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Yeah, I need to do somebody.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
I need to beence.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
You should.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
You should just did to dress up in a leopard
outfit every day and I will eleven thousand dollars. She's
twenty seven years old, but she doesn't exist.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Oh, that's right, she's Ai.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
She's AI and she has thousands of followers who get
caught up in her life.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
And but wait a second, who gets that money? Then
she's fake.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
I'll take it her fake kids.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
That's weird.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Yeah, she makes eleven thousand.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I guess the company that creates the are I guess.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
So she's part of a new breed here.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
There are two music acts that have hit the top
of the charts, Solomon Ray and a country band called
Breaking Rust. And they're fake bands that made fake music
and they have hit records. There's some blonde bombshell influencer
named Mia Zelu and she apparently created a sensation at
(28:59):
the wimbled tennis tournament.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
I guess she.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Posted photos of herself at Wimbledon, except she didn't exist.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
This is what everybody's doing in.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
The world now, I understand.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
They sit home and.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Scrolling away looking at fake people and getting caught up
in the fake people's lives.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
This is the end of days, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (29:21):
I think we need to get on this AI train.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
And it says, you know what, they're better than better
than regular influencers. Somebody just breaks something.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Huh uh the regular because because it says here, the
AI influencers never have a bad hair day, that's true, right,
They never miss a note when recording, you know, the
recording session is not even one and done.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
It's uh.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
They always on time, never complain, and don't get caught
up in any weird you know, sex scandals or financial scandals.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
And so there's an.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Agency now and I Tana who I mentioned she promotes
Calvin Klein, Prada, Samsung, and YouTube. Well yeah no she
doesn't for Amazon, but all those companies use other AI influencers.
So there isn't even a market if you wanted to
be like a commercial spokesperson, which is really what influencers are.
(30:18):
Now that's going by the wayside. Now, why should they
spend ten thousand dollars a month.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
On that influencer. You're just too late.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
You've been already replaced it. You've been replaced with AI
before you even started. And it says, uh oh, sometime
this month, Ititana will be able to hold a five
minute conversation with fans who will pay to chat with her. Yes,
there's a new platform called fanview, and you pay money
(30:49):
to talk to a fake person.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
We're in the wrong business here.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
We are. I don't know if I'm going to continue
doing that.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
There's no point. Just create like a fake cartoon. Me
and a fake cartoon.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
You.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
You're about halfway there already. Yeah, you're the closest thing
to a cartoon. I know.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
All right, we come back with.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
You too, John.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Look, that's the only reason I'm doing this, this whatever
terrible get up I gotta wear next hour three fifteen
is because I torture her all year and I feel
like this is her payback, So it's only fair that
she gets one day too.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
Let me tell you this is a good one. This
is a good one.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Yeah yeah, Now what did Enny say? This crosses the line?
Speaker 3 (31:35):
Does cross the line a little bit?
Speaker 1 (31:37):
Wait, my wife already drove home.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
