Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's the John Corbelt Show. Lou Penrose in for COBLT today.
COBLT will be back with you on Monday.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Thank you for tuning in.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Good to have you along with us. Pleasure to follow
my good friend Carl call Demayo like those kind words.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Carl is on fire. I have known.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
DeMaio for a long long time and you may not
know this, but he is the genuine article. He is
exactly as he sounds, exactly as he appears, exactly as
he speaks all the time. He's never putting on airs.
He has been fighting these fights and he lives it.
(00:40):
He's a policy wonk. He gets in the books and
really gets down in the budgets and has been doing
it from gosh. I've known him since the nineties and
he just is completely believable. So whether you agree or disagree,
know that he absolutely believes.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Every single thing he's saying and he's preaching.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
And if you agree on the direction he's going, then
you have to admit that he is an army of
one and a true leader in this movement and single
handedly could change the trajectory of California politics with that
voter ide initiative. So I'm rooting for him and I
love him like a brother, all right, So the billionaire's
(01:25):
tax will be on the ballot and Paul's show it
will pass.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
And that's just a function in numbers.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
There's only two hundred and twenty billionaires in California to
vote no, and everybody else is gonna vote yes, with
a few exceptions of people like me that think it's
just unfair. I'm not a billionaire, would love to be,
but I don't want to tax the billionaires.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
It's not their fault that the state's not running.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Right.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
So guess what In backlash against California's proposal for the
one time billionaire's tax, porters are gathering signatures for an.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Anti billionaire's tax.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
A billionaire put up about the tax amount, so the
five percent on a billion is like fifty million dollars.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Imagine having to write a check for fifty million dollars.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Because you're successful, you're showing a profit, you are doing well,
but you have to write a check for fifty million
dollars and hand it over to a state that's running
a debt.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
It's like an absurd thought, and yet it might very
well be reality.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
So one of the billionaires said, all right, I'm gonna
throw the billionaire's tax amount about fifty million dollars at
an initiative to offset the billionaire's tax to neutralize it.
Speaker 5 (02:48):
The group building a Better California says it has enough
signatures to place two new ballot measures before voters in November.
They catch with enough support, the group can cancel out
the proposed billion their wealth tax.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
So brilliant, right, fight fire with fire.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
So if you are in favor of the billionaire's tax,
then it's you see the word billionaire on the ballot
and you say yes. But now you see two No
one reads the ballot, and so now you see two
things on there that have the word billionaire in it,
and you're just in yes mode. Yeah, get the billionaires,
make them pay they don't pay their fair share.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
And if you're one of these people, so you vote
yes twice because.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
You're not sure which is the billionaire's tax and which
is that other one that they're saying, well they suppos
say billionaire. Brilliant move so yes, yes, and the two
bills neutralize each other.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
They catch with enough support the group can cancel out
the proposed billionaire wealth tax. Their biggest backer as donated
fifty seven million dollars to the cause that in part
supports the following. It will bar new taxes on certain
types of wealth like intellectual property.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Oh that's good.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
That's a good one, because that's how they assess these taxes.
Like you don't like, nobody goes to work and their
pay rate is a billion Like there's no billion dollar payroll.
People don't clock in and their rate is a billion
dollars a year. So they determine that somebody's a billionaire
through a lot of things. Because people billionaires are really smart.
(04:22):
They're putting money all all over the place. You don't
just leave cash into checking account. But they also have assets,
and a lot of it is intellectual property. So if
you say no, that doesn't count, you can't add that.
That brings down the amount of billionaires left in California
to a handful.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
It will bar new taxes on certain types of wealth
like intellectual property. It will ban retroactive taxation based on
past residency, and it will require audits of tax spending
and increase oversight.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
All right, So that's going to be the dueling billionaire's
tax proposals, and they're going to try intentionally to make
it so similar to the billionaires tax language that it
will just offset.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Look, at the end of the day, this is not
a good way to run a railroad.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
I don't think we should be on purpose putting together
confusing ballot initiatives to try and confuse the voter to
get what we want, which is, in this case, we
want the billionaire's tax to not go into effect. But
I don't like the idea of jerrymandering to give one
particular political party an advantage in an upcoming congressional election.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
And that was passed. So what's good for the goose
is good for the gander, all right.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
So there's been some discussion at LA Unified School District
that the administration is imposing health guidelines on the school
lunch program that is distributed at LA Unified that is
designed to make the lunches healthier. And we all agree
that the school lunches are crapola and it would be
(05:58):
a good idea if the kids reading healthier food. But
LA Unified said that these new restrictions are making it
impossible for them to offer free lunches and eighty percent
eight zero eighty percent of LA Unified School District students
qualify for free or reduced price meals.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
So something's wrong. We'll dig into it. Coming up next.
Lou Penrose Info John Coblt.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Lou Penrose Info John Cobelt on The John Cobelt Show. So,
LA Unified School District says that the federal mandates are
putting a pressure on their ability to provide free school
lunches to students at the LA Unified School District.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
So the the health.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Department of Health and Human Services set these guidelines. The
Department of Agriculture distributes the money, and Health and Human Services,
as everyone knows, is headed by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior,
and he's all about making America healthy again, getting seed
oils out of the French fries, making sure the food
(07:09):
pyramid is right, making sure that people are eating the
right foods, and making sure that anything that's offered from
the federal government in the form of aid and school
lunches is a form of aid, is at least healthy food.
So he's increased the standards and pushed to eliminate processed
(07:32):
foods from school lunches in favor of whole foods, fruits, vegetables,
and foods that contain more whole protein.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Now, why would that be bad. That's a good thing.
I think that's a non part is an issue. If
we're if.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
The taxpayers are paying to feed the kids, let's make
sure that what we're feeding them.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Is good stuff for them. We know that the school
lunches are junk food. It's got to be possible.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
It may come at a premium price, but wouldn't that
be worth paying?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
And everybody has chased.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Everybody in Los Angeles is running around trying to get
more protein. Everybody's on the GLP one. Everybody's getting protein in.
There's Starbucks. There's a Starbucks now item that has like
twenty three grams of protein. It's like some kind of
flavor or creamer.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
I just saw a sign for it. Everybody's trying to
get protein in because whether you're not on a GLP one,
you should be eating more protein. Very very good for you.
The United States Congress just pass legislation that allows people
on SNAP that's food stamps, to be able to buy
rotisserie chicken. You know why, rotisserie chicken very high in protein,
(08:44):
very very good for you. If you're a need, you
should be eating chicken. And if you're a child, you
should not be eating processed food. So how do you
do this while you require you, say, to be eligible
for federal funds for your school lunch program, then you
need to get the crap out and put in some protein.
(09:05):
So students, schools have to abide by the guidelines and
to consider receiving federal funding. And LA Unified said, that
really impacts our budget and we are now going to
have to rework this because eighty percent of LA Unified
school district students qualify for free or reduce meals, and
(09:28):
that jeopardizes the food security for all the students. Well,
there's a couple of ways to go about that. Maybe
just maybe not all eighty percent of every child eighty percent,
eight out of ten in the nation's second largest school
district in twenty twenty six, eighteen twenty six. Maybe in
(09:52):
twenty twenty six, eighty percent are starving to death and
parents that have an money to make food for the kid,
I don't buy it. I don't like what.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Happened during COVID.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
So during COVID, everybody was home, and the school district said, well,
we got all these lunches. And we've been telling people
that the only square meal a kid gets in this
town is at school. Parents is so down and out.
It's the lay misrabla out there. There's not even a
cant of who hash in the cupboards of eighty percent
(10:29):
of these households that these kids come from. We got
to feed them and now they're home. So they started
distributing lunches at schools.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
At libraries, at rec centers. It was absurd, is it?
Parents couldn't feed their own kids at the house. And
then after COVID, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
For whatever reason, the governor got to be in his
bonnet and he said, you know what, I don't like
this idea where some kids are free lunch, some kids
are reduced cost lunch, and that makes the kids whose
parents actually provide.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Lunch for their children. That creates a cast system.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
That's not good. It's not good for the psyche. Let's
just give everybody free lunch so that nobody knows whose kids'
parents are lazy. And I've never liked it. I don't
like that at all. First off, I don't like the
idea that your kid is receiving free lunch for his
entire school career from K through twelve. You can't afford
(11:28):
to feed your kid lunch, work harder, there's something wrong
with you. Like there are children.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
That never paid for a lunch and parents never made
them a lunch. There's something wrong with that.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
And when you're looking at eighty percent qualifying, maybe the
qualifications are a little jarred.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
You are responsible to provide lunch.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
For your kid. You're responsible to feed your kid breakfast
and send them to school with lunch. Now something happens
and you temporarily need to rely on some kind of
reduced income or free lunch program. That's all good, but
you can't do it your whole life. You are actually
obligated to feed your own children. It's astounding to me,
(12:12):
it really is that people are so comfortable just taking
advantage of free lunch when they clearly have the money.
Like we're the only mammals that don't feed our own children.
And now the government saying, look.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
It's good, you have to feed them whole foods.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
And now now LA Unified is gonna have to say, hey,
you lazy ass parents, start feeding your own kids. So
we have enough money to feed the kids who actually
need a reduced lunch program.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
We're giving them whole food. Lou Penrose in for John
Cobelt on the John Cobelt Show.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand, Lou.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Penrose if John Cobelt on the John Cobelt Show, good
to be with you on a Thursday. So the school
lunch program at LA Unified is feeling some pressure because
the Department of Health Human Services under Secretary Robert F.
Kennedy Junior, is making a concerted effort to address the
quality of the school lunches. They want whole foods.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
Fruits, vegetables, and more protein.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
It's all part of Kennedy's Make America Healthy Again, and
he's retooled dietary guidelines and it's great.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
I think this is marvelous.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
We ought to be doing this. I think we do
so much in public school wrong. And I'm a huge
proponent of public school. I think it's great. It's the
great neutralizer in our society. That's what Jefferson said. He
was a big believer in it too. So we all
put our money together, we put together free public school
and we educate the masses and we all benefit from it.
(13:43):
Why wouldn't their nutrition be the same. But LA Unified
said that we have a lot of students that qualify
and the administration's dietary guidelines are making it worse and
we're not going to be able to provide as many
free lunch. And I looked into it, I said, what
are we talking about here?
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Eighty percent.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Good that you're not going to be able to provide
as many for eighty is know what? People need to
start providing lunches for their kids.
Speaker 6 (14:15):
The school districts are full of crap. There's obviously some
stupid political angle of something going on here. Obviously I'm
a chef and you could easily feed kid great stuff. Okay,
First of all, a hamburger has meat and veggies on it,
and if you use a good bun boom, same with taco.
Can make them with ground beef or ground chicken.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Super cheat, super cheap, right, I mean, it's street food,
and you're right.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
As a kid, burgers were the way to go, and
we're all fine.
Speaker 7 (14:45):
I'm a teacher and all kids get the free lunch.
It used to be you'd have to apply and only
certain kids.
Speaker 6 (14:53):
Would get it. They're giving it to everybody, and.
Speaker 7 (14:55):
I'll tell you what, not all the kids are eating it.
I have tons of kids in my middle school that
aren't eating it. But maybe if they went back to
those who need it, take it a porting.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
Of course. That's what you do is you don't give
free lunch to everybody.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
You compel their parents to actually provide nutrition for their
own children, and you offer lunch for sale, and you
create conditions and means tests parents that find themselves temporarily
in a condition where they need the taxpayer to cover
(15:30):
the three dollars lunch in school.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
With at least a peanut butter sandwich.
Speaker 8 (15:36):
You are one lazy parent.
Speaker 6 (15:38):
I agree with you more on school lunches because I
can't help myself. Lasagna, neat saw, veggie saw on protein
pasta that was brilliant, taco burrito, enchilada, shepherd's pie. This
is ridiculous. There's so many things that can be affordably made.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
I agree with you, so many things that can be
just rattled it off right that that is basically what
we all ate as kids in school. And despite the
lampooning in the eighties movies.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
School lunches were fine.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
I don't ever remember school lunches being bad. They weren't delicious,
but you were a kid who cares, and they were
certainly whole error than they are now. And few kids
were reduced lunch, and the the cashier knew who they were,
so they didn't have to I don't think any of
(16:32):
the kids ever felt embarrassed. I remember kids just shouting.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
Out free lunch, okay.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
But I remember the cashier had a little index card
box and she would double check it if somebody could remember.
And it was fine, Like everybody was fine. Nobody picked
on the kid that didn't get didn't have to pay
for the lunch, and everybody was fine. Now everybody is broke.
How can it be? How could it possibly be? How
can we have We are far more prosperous. And they're
(17:01):
telling you that eighty percent of the children in the
Los Angeles Unified School District come from such poverty that
they cannot afford lunch and you have to pay for it.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
I'm not buying it. I don't buy it. It's not true.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
There are two things that you have to do as
an adult individual in this lifetime.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Two things you, as an adult.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Must earn to feed yourself and to shelter yourself. That's it,
pretty low bar, but you must do it. I insist
that you earn enough. If you're able bodied, you have
to earn enough to feed yourself and shelter yourself. You
can run around naked as a jaybird inside your house,
(17:50):
but that's up to you.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
But that's it. I insist.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
In society, I command you to earn enough to feed
yourself and shelter yourself.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
When you have children, you multiply those obligations.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
You are obligated to feed and shelter and clothe your
children three meals.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
A day.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Until they're adults. These are bare minimum requirements, but they
are nevertheless requirements.
Speaker 9 (18:21):
Ship ladies on fire, give her some time, I know,
man hire her.
Speaker 6 (18:26):
Everyone loves burritos, bean and cheese. Beef and cheese super
easy to make, super cheap, to make roast chicken, super
easy to make. Fake the stupid potatoes instead of frying them.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
You're right about the school lunch gig lou Well, the
parents can pay for that.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
It can pay three bucks a day to make their
kids at lunch and send them to school.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
I'm telling you all right, when we get back, we've
got a couple of things that came up today that
we got to get to.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
Oh yeah, of course, the snap benefits now allowing people
to buy the road tissary chicken. That's big news and
a real change and the only bipartisan piece of legislation
in the entire.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Trump administration. So Republicans and Democrats agree that people on
welfare should be able to get the retissary.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Chicken, and AI drive through could cost you thousands if
you're not careful.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
That's all coming up next on the John Cobalt Show.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
It's Lou Penrose. If John Cobelt on the John Cobalt Show, Lou, I.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
Don't remember ever having a free lunch when I was
a kid. I went to grade school during the seventies.
We had subsidized lunches, but my father had to pay
for them. He got them because he was a single
parent of three kids.
Speaker 8 (19:44):
But there were no free lunches to anybody.
Speaker 4 (19:46):
I don't get this at all.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Yeah, well, welcome to today.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Now eighty percent of la unified school district all qualify
for free lunch, and they're mad that the administration is
raising the quality and nutritional standar of the lunch is served.
They're not going to be able to get free lunch
to eighty percent anymore. And all I'm saying is there's
no way that eighty percent. I mean, they may qualify
(20:12):
under the standards and the guidelines that you set, but
you're just allowing a whole lot of lazy parents through.
Speaker 10 (20:19):
Hey, lou, I got an idea. Let's take a baloney
sandwich on white bread with mayonnaise and force feeded into
every person of the city council.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
You know where they have a good baloney sandwich now
that you brought it up, The old German Deli in
Big Bear on Big Bear Boulevard. Absolutely spectacular boloney sandwich.
Speaker 7 (20:44):
I work in a K through eight school, and every
child gets lunch, but not every child eats lunch, and
the amount of waste that is going on is ridiculous.
Most kids get lunch, eat one or two components or
no components at all, and throw the west away and
(21:06):
it's a horrendous waste.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Yeah, no, I've seen it.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
I've had kids in public school and right the apple
I mean in every parent that had kids in public
school know this. The apple or the orange you get
that's just there for the hoops contest into the garbage can. Like,
nobody's eating the apple or the orange, but you're forced
(21:31):
to take it.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
The yogurt's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
You can go with the yogurt. But then when it
comes to and everything's eaten and all you're left with
is especially if you have boys like I do, it's
just every once in a while you get a call,
you get a note.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Your kids were throwing food? What food? No, Dad, We
were just trying to get two points with the apple.
Speaker 9 (21:53):
Heylu. When I was in high school, I worked in
the cafeteria, which gave me free lunch. My parents still
gave me lunch money. So I was bankrolling, taking my
girlfriend now life out of Friday night movies and enjoying
high school, putting money in my pocket and getting fat
(22:14):
at the same time.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
Look at you and bezzling off your parents. Where to go?
All right?
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Well, the AI component of drive through is here. I
see Carls Junior is doing this pretty well. The AI
girl at Carl's Junior drive through is good. McDonald's has it,
but only for the first second. If you go through McDonald's,
they always ask you if you're ordering on the app,
and then the lady comes on.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
It's like a different voice. But Krispy Kream.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Has gone full AI. But you have to be careful
on how you talk to AI. You gotta be careful
with the slang. And somebody was not careful and filmed
it and put it on TikTok.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
I guess this is where this is from. Absolutely hilarious.
Speaker 11 (23:01):
Welcome to Christy Kreme. What can I get for you?
Speaker 8 (23:04):
Just a regular donuts?
Speaker 2 (23:05):
That's a pretty good AI voice. She's very pleasant. I
mean it's pretty clearly AI, but it's pretty good.
Speaker 11 (23:12):
Welcome to Krispy Kreme. What can I get for you?
Speaker 8 (23:15):
Just a regular donuts?
Speaker 11 (23:16):
Got it? Anything else?
Speaker 8 (23:18):
They'll be everything.
Speaker 11 (23:19):
Thank you for coming to Krispy Kreme.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Okay, did you catch what he did wrong? Will it
be anything else? The right answer is no. The wrong
answer is everything.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
I get it right? That's that's everything. Well to AI,
everything is everything on the menu and that's what he
got charged for.
Speaker 8 (23:45):
Just a regular doonas, got it?
Speaker 11 (23:47):
Anything else?
Speaker 8 (23:48):
They'll be everything.
Speaker 11 (23:49):
Thank you for coming to Christy Kreme. Please pull forward
to the window.
Speaker 8 (23:52):
What's the total from where?
Speaker 11 (23:54):
Order and eighty five cents?
Speaker 8 (23:58):
Okay, take care, have a good day.
Speaker 11 (24:00):
Thank you you.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Too, all right?
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Is that will there be everything? Will there be anything else? Yes,
that's everything. I'll take everything. Everything on the menu comes
out to one thousand, five hundred dollars. So be careful
how you talk to these AI people, because they will
fulfill your wish. Hey, Saturday is the Kentucky Derby and
(24:21):
the president is now. He had a really good time
with the King and Queen of the United Kingdom. And
Scotland is in the United Kingdom, and I guess the
United States and Scotland have had trade barriers over whiskey.
And the president who does not drink, doesn't drink at all.
(24:44):
It's the first time ever in the nation's history that
we had two back to back presidents that don't drink
at all.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
Did you know that Biden never drank and Trump never drank?
Speaker 2 (24:57):
And that's unique. We've had presidents that used to drink
and quit.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
George W. Bush he was a jim.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Bean guy and it just got too much and he
cut it out. So he didn't drink during his presidency.
But he was a drinker. Trump and Biden neither one
of them ever drank.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
It's just interesting.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
And he's so he's because he had such a good
time with the King and Queen of the United Kingdom
that he's going to He asked to have the tariff
restrictions on whiskey imports from Scotland lifted. I guess this
has been going on for years, and just in time
for the Kentucky to Derby. Kentucky is ninety percent of
(25:36):
the world's bourbon is produced in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
It employs twenty three thousand people in Kentucky, all making bourbon.
So this gives Kentucky, Kentucky's economy a huge lift. It'll
reduce costs, It'll allow the State of Kentucky to import
barrels from Scotland to be more authentic when they're making Scotch,
(26:00):
and allow the people of Scotland to enjoy whiskey, sour
mash and all the stuff that we do here in
the United States. And the Scottish and people from Kentucky
are now friends. So that's great, right in time for
the Kentucky Derby. So whiskey, I don't know if you
know this look on the bottle. That's how you know
if it's from Scotland. Scottish whiskey does not have the
(26:23):
E in it. The letter E is not in there
on purpose, so that you know it's authentic Scottish whiskey.
Like Irish whiskey will have an E. Whiskey from Canada,
we'll have an E. Right Tennessee whiskey, Kentucky whiskey, it's
all got that E. So now you know a whole
(26:44):
lot about your drink. On Saturday at the Kentucky Derby. Hey,
join me on Sunday afternoons at four o'clock right here
on kf I AM six forty as I host Sunday
Nights on KFI. John cole Belt will be back with
you on Monday. Have yourselves a fantastic evening. Tim Conway
Junior is up next on KFI AM six forty live
(27:05):
everywhere on the iHeartRadio AP
Speaker 1 (27:07):
Kf I AM six forty on demand
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's the John Corbelt Show. Lou Penrose in for COBLT today.
COBLT will be back with you on Monday.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Thank you for tuning in.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Good to have you along with us. Pleasure to follow
my good friend Carl call Demayo like those kind words.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Carl is on fire. I have known.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
DeMaio for a long long time and you may not
know this, but he is the genuine article. He is
exactly as he sounds, exactly as he appears, exactly as
he speaks all the time. He's never putting on airs.
He has been fighting these fights and he lives it.
(00:40):
He's a policy wonk. He gets in the books and
really gets down in the budgets and has been doing
it from gosh. I've known him since the nineties and
he just is completely believable. So whether you agree or disagree,
know that he absolutely believes.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Every single thing he's saying and he's preaching.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
And if you agree on the direction he's going, then
you have to admit that he is an army of
one and a true leader in this movement and single
handedly could change the trajectory of California politics with that
voter ide initiative. So I'm rooting for him and I
love him like a brother, all right, So the billionaire's
(01:25):
tax will be on the ballot and Paul's show it
will pass.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
And that's just a function in numbers.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
There's only two hundred and twenty billionaires in California to
vote no, and everybody else is gonna vote yes, with
a few exceptions of people like me that think it's
just unfair. I'm not a billionaire, would love to be,
but I don't want to tax the billionaires.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
It's not their fault that the state's not running.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Right.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
So guess what In backlash against California's proposal for the
one time billionaire's tax, porters are gathering signatures for an.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Anti billionaire's tax.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
A billionaire put up about the tax amount, so the
five percent on a billion is like fifty million dollars.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Imagine having to write a check for fifty million dollars.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Because you're successful, you're showing a profit, you are doing well,
but you have to write a check for fifty million
dollars and hand it over to a state that's running
a debt.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
It's like an absurd thought, and yet it might very
well be reality.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
So one of the billionaires said, all right, I'm gonna
throw the billionaire's tax amount about fifty million dollars at
an initiative to offset the billionaire's tax to neutralize it.
Speaker 5 (02:48):
The group building a Better California says it has enough
signatures to place two new ballot measures before voters in November.
They catch with enough support, the group can cancel out
the proposed billion their wealth tax.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
So brilliant, right, fight fire with fire.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
So if you are in favor of the billionaire's tax,
then it's you see the word billionaire on the ballot
and you say yes. But now you see two No
one reads the ballot, and so now you see two
things on there that have the word billionaire in it,
and you're just in yes mode. Yeah, get the billionaires,
make them pay they don't pay their fair share.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
And if you're one of these people, so you vote
yes twice because.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
You're not sure which is the billionaire's tax and which
is that other one that they're saying, well they suppos
say billionaire. Brilliant move so yes, yes, and the two
bills neutralize each other.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
They catch with enough support the group can cancel out
the proposed billionaire wealth tax. Their biggest backer as donated
fifty seven million dollars to the cause that in part
supports the following. It will bar new taxes on certain
types of wealth like intellectual property.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Oh that's good.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
That's a good one, because that's how they assess these taxes.
Like you don't like, nobody goes to work and their
pay rate is a billion Like there's no billion dollar payroll.
People don't clock in and their rate is a billion
dollars a year. So they determine that somebody's a billionaire
through a lot of things. Because people billionaires are really smart.
(04:22):
They're putting money all all over the place. You don't
just leave cash into checking account. But they also have assets,
and a lot of it is intellectual property. So if
you say no, that doesn't count, you can't add that.
That brings down the amount of billionaires left in California
to a handful.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
It will bar new taxes on certain types of wealth
like intellectual property. It will ban retroactive taxation based on
past residency, and it will require audits of tax spending
and increase oversight.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
All right, So that's going to be the dueling billionaire's
tax proposals, and they're going to try intentionally to make
it so similar to the billionaires tax language that it
will just offset.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Look, at the end of the day, this is not
a good way to run a railroad.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
I don't think we should be on purpose putting together
confusing ballot initiatives to try and confuse the voter to
get what we want, which is, in this case, we
want the billionaire's tax to not go into effect. But
I don't like the idea of jerrymandering to give one
particular political party an advantage in an upcoming congressional election.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
And that was passed. So what's good for the goose
is good for the gander, all right.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
So there's been some discussion at LA Unified School District
that the administration is imposing health guidelines on the school
lunch program that is distributed at LA Unified that is
designed to make the lunches healthier. And we all agree
that the school lunches are crapola and it would be
(05:58):
a good idea if the kids reading healthier food. But
LA Unified said that these new restrictions are making it
impossible for them to offer free lunches and eighty percent
eight zero eighty percent of LA Unified School District students
qualify for free or reduced price meals.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
So something's wrong. We'll dig into it. Coming up next.
Lou Penrose Info John Coblt.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Lou Penrose Info John Cobelt on The John Cobelt Show. So,
LA Unified School District says that the federal mandates are
putting a pressure on their ability to provide free school
lunches to students at the LA Unified School District.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
So the the health.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Department of Health and Human Services set these guidelines. The
Department of Agriculture distributes the money, and Health and Human Services,
as everyone knows, is headed by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior,
and he's all about making America healthy again, getting seed
oils out of the French fries, making sure the food
(07:09):
pyramid is right, making sure that people are eating the
right foods, and making sure that anything that's offered from
the federal government in the form of aid and school
lunches is a form of aid, is at least healthy food.
So he's increased the standards and pushed to eliminate processed
(07:32):
foods from school lunches in favor of whole foods, fruits, vegetables,
and foods that contain more whole protein.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Now, why would that be bad. That's a good thing.
I think that's a non part is an issue. If
we're if.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
The taxpayers are paying to feed the kids, let's make
sure that what we're feeding them.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Is good stuff for them. We know that the school
lunches are junk food. It's got to be possible.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
It may come at a premium price, but wouldn't that
be worth paying?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
And everybody has chased.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Everybody in Los Angeles is running around trying to get
more protein. Everybody's on the GLP one. Everybody's getting protein in.
There's Starbucks. There's a Starbucks now item that has like
twenty three grams of protein. It's like some kind of
flavor or creamer.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
I just saw a sign for it. Everybody's trying to
get protein in because whether you're not on a GLP one,
you should be eating more protein. Very very good for you.
The United States Congress just pass legislation that allows people
on SNAP that's food stamps, to be able to buy
rotisserie chicken. You know why, rotisserie chicken very high in protein,
(08:44):
very very good for you. If you're a need, you
should be eating chicken. And if you're a child, you
should not be eating processed food. So how do you
do this while you require you, say, to be eligible
for federal funds for your school lunch program, then you
need to get the crap out and put in some protein.
(09:05):
So students, schools have to abide by the guidelines and
to consider receiving federal funding. And LA Unified said, that
really impacts our budget and we are now going to
have to rework this because eighty percent of LA Unified
school district students qualify for free or reduce meals, and
(09:28):
that jeopardizes the food security for all the students. Well,
there's a couple of ways to go about that. Maybe
just maybe not all eighty percent of every child eighty percent,
eight out of ten in the nation's second largest school
district in twenty twenty six, eighteen twenty six. Maybe in
(09:52):
twenty twenty six, eighty percent are starving to death and
parents that have an money to make food for the kid,
I don't buy it. I don't like what.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Happened during COVID.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
So during COVID, everybody was home, and the school district said, well,
we got all these lunches. And we've been telling people
that the only square meal a kid gets in this
town is at school. Parents is so down and out.
It's the lay misrabla out there. There's not even a
cant of who hash in the cupboards of eighty percent
(10:29):
of these households that these kids come from. We got
to feed them and now they're home. So they started
distributing lunches at schools.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
At libraries, at rec centers. It was absurd, is it?
Parents couldn't feed their own kids at the house. And
then after COVID, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
For whatever reason, the governor got to be in his
bonnet and he said, you know what, I don't like
this idea where some kids are free lunch, some kids
are reduced cost lunch, and that makes the kids whose
parents actually provide.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Lunch for their children. That creates a cast system.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
That's not good. It's not good for the psyche. Let's
just give everybody free lunch so that nobody knows whose kids'
parents are lazy. And I've never liked it. I don't
like that at all. First off, I don't like the
idea that your kid is receiving free lunch for his
entire school career from K through twelve. You can't afford
(11:28):
to feed your kid lunch, work harder, there's something wrong
with you. Like there are children.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
That never paid for a lunch and parents never made
them a lunch. There's something wrong with that.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
And when you're looking at eighty percent qualifying, maybe the
qualifications are a little jarred.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
You are responsible to provide lunch.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
For your kid. You're responsible to feed your kid breakfast
and send them to school with lunch. Now something happens
and you temporarily need to rely on some kind of
reduced income or free lunch program. That's all good, but
you can't do it your whole life. You are actually
obligated to feed your own children. It's astounding to me,
(12:12):
it really is that people are so comfortable just taking
advantage of free lunch when they clearly have the money.
Like we're the only mammals that don't feed our own children.
And now the government saying, look.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
It's good, you have to feed them whole foods.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
And now now LA Unified is gonna have to say, hey,
you lazy ass parents, start feeding your own kids. So
we have enough money to feed the kids who actually
need a reduced lunch program.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
We're giving them whole food. Lou Penrose in for John
Cobelt on the John Cobelt Show.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand, Lou.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Penrose if John Cobelt on the John Cobelt Show, good
to be with you on a Thursday. So the school
lunch program at LA Unified is feeling some pressure because
the Department of Health Human Services under Secretary Robert F.
Kennedy Junior, is making a concerted effort to address the
quality of the school lunches. They want whole foods.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
Fruits, vegetables, and more protein.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
It's all part of Kennedy's Make America Healthy Again, and
he's retooled dietary guidelines and it's great.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
I think this is marvelous.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
We ought to be doing this. I think we do
so much in public school wrong. And I'm a huge
proponent of public school. I think it's great. It's the
great neutralizer in our society. That's what Jefferson said. He
was a big believer in it too. So we all
put our money together, we put together free public school
and we educate the masses and we all benefit from it.
(13:43):
Why wouldn't their nutrition be the same. But LA Unified
said that we have a lot of students that qualify
and the administration's dietary guidelines are making it worse and
we're not going to be able to provide as many
free lunch. And I looked into it, I said, what
are we talking about here?
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Eighty percent.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Good that you're not going to be able to provide
as many for eighty is know what? People need to
start providing lunches for their kids.
Speaker 6 (14:15):
The school districts are full of crap. There's obviously some
stupid political angle of something going on here. Obviously I'm
a chef and you could easily feed kid great stuff. Okay,
First of all, a hamburger has meat and veggies on it,
and if you use a good bun boom, same with taco.
Can make them with ground beef or ground chicken.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Super cheat, super cheap, right, I mean, it's street food,
and you're right.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
As a kid, burgers were the way to go, and
we're all fine.
Speaker 7 (14:45):
I'm a teacher and all kids get the free lunch.
It used to be you'd have to apply and only
certain kids.
Speaker 6 (14:53):
Would get it. They're giving it to everybody, and.
Speaker 7 (14:55):
I'll tell you what, not all the kids are eating it.
I have tons of kids in my middle school that
aren't eating it. But maybe if they went back to
those who need it, take it a porting.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
Of course. That's what you do is you don't give
free lunch to everybody.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
You compel their parents to actually provide nutrition for their
own children, and you offer lunch for sale, and you
create conditions and means tests parents that find themselves temporarily
in a condition where they need the taxpayer to cover
(15:30):
the three dollars lunch in school.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
With at least a peanut butter sandwich.
Speaker 8 (15:36):
You are one lazy parent.
Speaker 6 (15:38):
I agree with you more on school lunches because I
can't help myself. Lasagna, neat saw, veggie saw on protein
pasta that was brilliant, taco burrito, enchilada, shepherd's pie. This
is ridiculous. There's so many things that can be affordably made.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
I agree with you, so many things that can be
just rattled it off right that that is basically what
we all ate as kids in school. And despite the
lampooning in the eighties movies.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
School lunches were fine.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
I don't ever remember school lunches being bad. They weren't delicious,
but you were a kid who cares, and they were
certainly whole error than they are now. And few kids
were reduced lunch, and the the cashier knew who they were,
so they didn't have to I don't think any of
(16:32):
the kids ever felt embarrassed. I remember kids just shouting.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
Out free lunch, okay.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
But I remember the cashier had a little index card
box and she would double check it if somebody could remember.
And it was fine, Like everybody was fine. Nobody picked
on the kid that didn't get didn't have to pay
for the lunch, and everybody was fine. Now everybody is broke.
How can it be? How could it possibly be? How
can we have We are far more prosperous. And they're
(17:01):
telling you that eighty percent of the children in the
Los Angeles Unified School District come from such poverty that
they cannot afford lunch and you have to pay for it.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
I'm not buying it. I don't buy it. It's not true.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
There are two things that you have to do as
an adult individual in this lifetime.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Two things you, as an adult.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Must earn to feed yourself and to shelter yourself. That's it,
pretty low bar, but you must do it. I insist
that you earn enough. If you're able bodied, you have
to earn enough to feed yourself and shelter yourself. You
can run around naked as a jaybird inside your house,
(17:50):
but that's up to you.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
But that's it. I insist.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
In society, I command you to earn enough to feed
yourself and shelter yourself.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
When you have children, you multiply those obligations.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
You are obligated to feed and shelter and clothe your
children three meals.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
A day.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Until they're adults. These are bare minimum requirements, but they
are nevertheless requirements.
Speaker 9 (18:21):
Ship ladies on fire, give her some time, I know,
man hire her.
Speaker 6 (18:26):
Everyone loves burritos, bean and cheese. Beef and cheese super
easy to make, super cheap, to make roast chicken, super
easy to make. Fake the stupid potatoes instead of frying them.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
You're right about the school lunch gig lou Well, the
parents can pay for that.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
It can pay three bucks a day to make their
kids at lunch and send them to school.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
I'm telling you all right, when we get back, we've
got a couple of things that came up today that
we got to get to.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
Oh yeah, of course, the snap benefits now allowing people
to buy the road tissary chicken. That's big news and
a real change and the only bipartisan piece of legislation
in the entire.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Trump administration. So Republicans and Democrats agree that people on
welfare should be able to get the retissary.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Chicken, and AI drive through could cost you thousands if
you're not careful.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
That's all coming up next on the John Cobalt Show.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
It's Lou Penrose. If John Cobelt on the John Cobalt Show, Lou, I.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
Don't remember ever having a free lunch when I was
a kid. I went to grade school during the seventies.
We had subsidized lunches, but my father had to pay
for them. He got them because he was a single
parent of three kids.
Speaker 8 (19:44):
But there were no free lunches to anybody.
Speaker 4 (19:46):
I don't get this at all.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Yeah, well, welcome to today.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Now eighty percent of la unified school district all qualify
for free lunch, and they're mad that the administration is
raising the quality and nutritional standar of the lunch is served.
They're not going to be able to get free lunch
to eighty percent anymore. And all I'm saying is there's
no way that eighty percent. I mean, they may qualify
(20:12):
under the standards and the guidelines that you set, but
you're just allowing a whole lot of lazy parents through.
Speaker 10 (20:19):
Hey, lou, I got an idea. Let's take a baloney
sandwich on white bread with mayonnaise and force feeded into
every person of the city council.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
You know where they have a good baloney sandwich now
that you brought it up, The old German Deli in
Big Bear on Big Bear Boulevard. Absolutely spectacular boloney sandwich.
Speaker 7 (20:44):
I work in a K through eight school, and every
child gets lunch, but not every child eats lunch, and
the amount of waste that is going on is ridiculous.
Most kids get lunch, eat one or two components or
no components at all, and throw the west away and
(21:06):
it's a horrendous waste.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Yeah, no, I've seen it.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
I've had kids in public school and right the apple
I mean in every parent that had kids in public
school know this. The apple or the orange you get
that's just there for the hoops contest into the garbage can. Like,
nobody's eating the apple or the orange, but you're forced
(21:31):
to take it.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
The yogurt's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
You can go with the yogurt. But then when it
comes to and everything's eaten and all you're left with
is especially if you have boys like I do, it's
just every once in a while you get a call,
you get a note.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Your kids were throwing food? What food? No, Dad, We
were just trying to get two points with the apple.
Speaker 9 (21:53):
Heylu. When I was in high school, I worked in
the cafeteria, which gave me free lunch. My parents still
gave me lunch money. So I was bankrolling, taking my
girlfriend now life out of Friday night movies and enjoying
high school, putting money in my pocket and getting fat
(22:14):
at the same time.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
Look at you and bezzling off your parents. Where to go?
All right?
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Well, the AI component of drive through is here. I
see Carls Junior is doing this pretty well. The AI
girl at Carl's Junior drive through is good. McDonald's has it,
but only for the first second. If you go through McDonald's,
they always ask you if you're ordering on the app,
and then the lady comes on.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
It's like a different voice. But Krispy Kream.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Has gone full AI. But you have to be careful
on how you talk to AI. You gotta be careful
with the slang. And somebody was not careful and filmed
it and put it on TikTok.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
I guess this is where this is from. Absolutely hilarious.
Speaker 11 (23:01):
Welcome to Christy Kreme. What can I get for you?
Speaker 8 (23:04):
Just a regular donuts?
Speaker 2 (23:05):
That's a pretty good AI voice. She's very pleasant. I
mean it's pretty clearly AI, but it's pretty good.
Speaker 11 (23:12):
Welcome to Krispy Kreme. What can I get for you?
Speaker 8 (23:15):
Just a regular donuts?
Speaker 11 (23:16):
Got it? Anything else?
Speaker 8 (23:18):
They'll be everything.
Speaker 11 (23:19):
Thank you for coming to Krispy Kreme.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Okay, did you catch what he did wrong? Will it
be anything else? The right answer is no. The wrong
answer is everything.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
I get it right? That's that's everything. Well to AI,
everything is everything on the menu and that's what he
got charged for.
Speaker 8 (23:45):
Just a regular doonas, got it?
Speaker 11 (23:47):
Anything else?
Speaker 8 (23:48):
They'll be everything.
Speaker 11 (23:49):
Thank you for coming to Christy Kreme. Please pull forward
to the window.
Speaker 8 (23:52):
What's the total from where?
Speaker 11 (23:54):
Order and eighty five cents?
Speaker 8 (23:58):
Okay, take care, have a good day.
Speaker 11 (24:00):
Thank you you.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Too, all right?
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Is that will there be everything? Will there be anything else? Yes,
that's everything. I'll take everything. Everything on the menu comes
out to one thousand, five hundred dollars. So be careful
how you talk to these AI people, because they will
fulfill your wish. Hey, Saturday is the Kentucky Derby and
(24:21):
the president is now. He had a really good time
with the King and Queen of the United Kingdom. And
Scotland is in the United Kingdom, and I guess the
United States and Scotland have had trade barriers over whiskey.
And the president who does not drink, doesn't drink at all.
(24:44):
It's the first time ever in the nation's history that
we had two back to back presidents that don't drink
at all.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
Did you know that Biden never drank and Trump never drank?
Speaker 2 (24:57):
And that's unique. We've had presidents that used to drink
and quit.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
George W. Bush he was a jim.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Bean guy and it just got too much and he
cut it out. So he didn't drink during his presidency.
But he was a drinker. Trump and Biden neither one
of them ever drank.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
It's just interesting.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
And he's so he's because he had such a good
time with the King and Queen of the United Kingdom
that he's going to He asked to have the tariff
restrictions on whiskey imports from Scotland lifted. I guess this
has been going on for years, and just in time
for the Kentucky to Derby. Kentucky is ninety percent of
(25:36):
the world's bourbon is produced in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
It employs twenty three thousand people in Kentucky, all making bourbon.
So this gives Kentucky, Kentucky's economy a huge lift. It'll
reduce costs, It'll allow the State of Kentucky to import
barrels from Scotland to be more authentic when they're making Scotch,
(26:00):
and allow the people of Scotland to enjoy whiskey, sour
mash and all the stuff that we do here in
the United States. And the Scottish and people from Kentucky
are now friends. So that's great, right in time for
the Kentucky Derby. So whiskey, I don't know if you
know this look on the bottle. That's how you know
if it's from Scotland. Scottish whiskey does not have the
(26:23):
E in it. The letter E is not in there
on purpose, so that you know it's authentic Scottish whiskey.
Like Irish whiskey will have an E. Whiskey from Canada,
we'll have an E. Right Tennessee whiskey, Kentucky whiskey, it's
all got that E. So now you know a whole
(26:44):
lot about your drink. On Saturday at the Kentucky Derby. Hey,
