Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can't. I am six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobel Podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
We're on here from one until four and then after
four o'clock John Cobel Show on demand on the iHeart app. Moistline,
How are we doing taking calls on the moist Line?
We need some eight seven seven moist eighty six. Eight
seven seven moist eighty six. We're only two days away
from playing them on Friday. So if you got something
that's making you crazy, maybe these stupid protests are making
(00:23):
you crazy. Eight seven seven moistady six or the talkback
feature on the iHeartRadio App. I want to thank the
people at Philly's Best Philly's Best cheese steaks, and they
are my favorite cheese steaks out here in LA. In fact,
they came out here the same year I did. And
(00:43):
they're scattered all over. There's one in Burbank, but they've
got a new one opening in West Hollywood. Yeah give
me that, because in West Hollywood on May the fourth?
Speaker 1 (00:54):
What day is May the fourth? Saturday? Good?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
All right, Saturday, May fourth? You head to Philly's Best
on seven threefty seventy three fifty Melrose Avenue and the
first fifty people in line that day will get a
free classic cheese steak or a classic chicken cheese steak,
and everybody's going to get twenty percent off their orders
that day. It's in the Melrose Arts District, seventy three
fifty Melrose.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
It's uh.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
And they got me a cheese steak today, and they're
feeding everybody here at KFI and I get I get
a real cheese steak.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
I got a vegetarian, a vegan, a vegan. It was
very nice of them.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
That is nice.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
They brought me a vegan sandwich and I appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
That's that is really wonderful of them.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Yes, I'm I'm happy, but I don't want to think
about vegan stuff. Well, I'm enjoying cheese steak, I know.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
But see, they also can cater to other people that
that don't eat.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Other people, other minority groups exactly.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Excuse me, now, this this place is the only one
that makes them the same way they do back East,
because I grew up in New Jersey and I spent
a lot of time in the Philly and New York
areas and cheese steaks were the specialty of that region.
I came out here and I have eaten a lot
of inferior cheese steaks, and then I found Philly's Best
(02:12):
and this is definitely number one. So May fourth, Saturday,
seventy three, fifty Melrose Avenue. There you go, all right,
now onto we have Chris Adler at USC to see
if that demonstration turns into anything larger than it is.
It's a pretty crowded there, and a boy, am I
(02:33):
tired of see intents? I am so sick of see intents.
Kate Sanchez is an assembly woman who has a bill
that would double the fine for protesters who block a
highway and increase the fine for people who commit multiple offenses.
(02:54):
I think everybody was disgusted with the Golden gate Bridge
being shut down for almost five hours last week by
these these Palestinian protesters. He's got she got a lot
of Democratic support too. Uh. Let's let's talk to Kate
Sanchez here in southern California. You just run through a
short list of the towns you represent.
Speaker 5 (03:15):
So people know sure a Mission Baho register to Margarita,
Ladera Ranch, Coda de Casa, Marietta, Temechuelo, Wildemar are just
a few of the cities.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
I represent, well, that's where a lot of normal people live. Now,
now we're dealing with these protesters, and it's interesting that
you seem to have a fair amount of support from
both Democrats and Republicans up in Sacramento. So I imagine
that Golden Gate Bridge thing really got a lot of
people agitated, oh very much so.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
And you know what, honestly, it was nice to finally
see Democrats decide to wake up and realize this banana
republic that we're in is not working, the status quo
is not working, and we're finally able to get some traction.
Now does this bill do it all? Absolutely not, but
it's absolutely a step in the right direction.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
There are some medical issues with the.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
With when the San Francisco Oakland Bay Bridge was shut down,
like Oregon, transplants were delayed, is that true?
Speaker 5 (04:11):
Yes, And timely routine surgeries that they thought were you know,
the organ pansl in thirty minutes, turned into a four
six hour delay. They had surgery scheduled. We saw examples
of that. They were able to tell us testimony. But
I'm telling you, finally we're starting to see movement, and
it's because we're continuing to push back on these crazy, radical,
out of touch policies coming out of Sacramento.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Well, you also need the local city officials to tell
the police do what you have to do and get
them off the road as quickly as possible, because I
think the police are held back by the idiot wok
politicians in a place like San Francisco or Oakland.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
Absolutely, and honestly I'm excited because the more we're able
to enable and help empower our locals and our das.
We need to make sure they have the tools in
the books that they're able to prosecute. Oftentimes they build
negotiated down to nothing. So I think doubling the penalties
is a reasonable step in the right direction.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Yeah, So how much should the penalties be so they
would start to.
Speaker 5 (05:09):
Actually they start at one hundred, it would double the
two hundred, and with season assessments it it actually can
go up to four thousand dollars depending on the frequency
of the offense.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Right, But we got to.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Get the prosecutors to actually prosecute because I keep reading
about some of these demonstrations, I think just in New York.
One of the big ones may have been in Columbia,
where they rested a couple hundred people and then everybody
got let go the next day and no charges.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
So I can tell you my staff and I worked
really hard to try to find an example where they
weren't actually all these misdemeanors they have the das you know,
they're unwilling or unable to prosecute them. So quite honestly,
there was not a single example or misimane a punishment successful.
I mean, it's just it's wild. It's so frustrating.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Yeah, I know, nothing nothing is enforced anymore, absolutely nothing,
which is why you're going to see that these protests
are going to get worse and worse and worse.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
I mean, I'm looking.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
At now a helicopter shot or from a plane in
New York of Columbia, and they've got it looks like
a couple one hundred tenths at the university, and most
of were the same.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Most of them look like the exact same models.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Somebody is you know, emptying the Amazon warehouse, and it's
got to be organized groups that are well funded. These
are not just students doing this. There has to be
a whole you know, chain of command to get the
tents there in place.
Speaker 5 (06:37):
And exactly, and I understand that we honestly this is
an incredibly timely bill, but we just were not safe anymore.
And I think the more we're seeing what a banana
of public this has been, this has become, I honestly
think that we need to keep pushing and stop this
incredible infanity. It's just it's too much.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
It's too much, Okay, all right, So it got out
of a committee, right which committee was that it was.
Speaker 5 (07:02):
Gotten out of Transportation with bipartisan support, shockingly, and what
was gonn announce in appropriation coming up? So I'll be
sure to keep you posting.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Oh please keep us posted. And we hope this passes,
and I hope it gets enforced once it passes. Thank
you Kate Sanchez from Orange County, the assembly woman who
has got support to increase the penalties for the idiots
who block major highways and roadways.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Like the Golden Gate Bridge.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Honest to god, three organ transplants were delayed at a
local hospital when the San Francisco Oakland Bay Bridge was
shut down and out for this crap. I once I
go off, I mean it's not We've got more coming up.
Get hurt in an accident and that can change your life.
So you need some strength in that situation. You need
(07:51):
to call Sweet James. When one of my listeners got
hurt in a motorcycle accident, he got shocked. I mean,
it was a low ball offer from the insurance company
that he couldn't believe. So he called Sweet James and
the attorney's there.
Speaker 6 (08:04):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Boy, this next one makes me want to move out
of the state.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
As if I don't, we all don't have enough reasons
to get out of California. And wouldn't you know that
that evil little gerbil Scott Wiener, he's a state senator
and he is behind a long string of an intrusive, annoying,
nanny state bills and he's got another one, and man,
(08:35):
the public's got to wake up and stop this crap
Wiener got passed the Senate Transportation Committee. This is the
same committee that we just talked to Kate Sanchez about
and she got she's getting the bill passed that would
increase the fines for stupid protests that blocked freeways. Well,
(08:56):
this other thing that passed at a committee would require
new cars sold in the state to be built with
something that automatically warns you when you're driving ten miles
an hour over the speed limit.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
You just are upset because you always do that. You
don't want to be reminded of breaking a rule.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
That's right. I want to do that.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
I want to speed, and I don't want more beeps
going off in my car.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
The next thing is going to be a beep when
you're driving in the carpool lane without a passenger.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Now, what kind of noise will it make If I'm
also more than ten miles over the speed limit and
I'm driving in the car pool aane verry loud, It'd
be a big loud alarm is going to go off.
There is no reason. There's no reason to sit in
traffic when you have a free carpool lane.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
None.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
I know when I drive home every day, John, I
see in the carpool lane there are solo drivers. And
I know with my luck as we all know, that
if I go into the car pool lane, I'm gonna
be the one that's gonna get pulled over.
Speaker 7 (10:04):
One day.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
You're gonna see me blow past you.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Call you, and I'm gonna yell at you, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
I'm gonna give you a little beep beep.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
So so do you know how many beeps go off?
Now I have a car, it's about it's a little
over four years old, but not too long ago. My
car needed some service and they gave me a loaner
car at the dealership. So now I've got this loaner
car that's four years later. It's a twenty twenty four
(10:36):
model a year and I couldn't believe this thing would
not shut up. If you drift a little bit to
the left in the lane, betpep beep, a little bit
to the right, beetpep beep beep. If it senses you're
too close to the car in front of you, big
beepep beep.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
You know.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
On top of the stupid seat belt thing which has
been been around forever and an annoys the hell out
of me because sometimes you know, I'm getting myself together,
I don't have to seep on right away.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Is like ding ding ding ding.
Speaker 8 (11:03):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
And then the one button I hate the most. What
button you think I hate the most?
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Uh? If you're going if you're going too fast and
it slows your car down.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Well that's what they're proposing.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Because I have that in my car if I'm going
to do yes, if I'm going too fast, all of
a sudden, it's self correct. It's scary, really, Yeah, you
can turn that setting off.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Yeah. Sometimes it's hard to find those settings.
Speaker 6 (11:27):
Yeah, I know.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Well, the original version of the of the bill by
the little Gerbil Scott Wiener was to put what those
restricts in all cars, and I guess there's a lot
of pushback, and now he's settling for just warning motorists
when they're driving ten miles over the limit. But is
it that's going to be every time? And is that
(11:48):
going to be the whole time that you're you're over
the limit? I mean, you drive on a freeway, you
should be allowed to drive as fast as you can.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Is there going to be an option to turn that off?
I don't like a setting in the car.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
Probably not.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
And he's such this little nanny nitty. I understand that
people like to be able to go as fast as
they want to. All we're saying is let's do a
reminder when you're going significantly about the Steve woman, so
you can be reminded to slow down when I'm speeding.
I know I'm speeding. I don't need a reminder that's
on purpose. I want to speed, and if I don't
(12:26):
have cars in front of me, there's no reason I
can't speed.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Say, in Germany, you go one hundred miles an hour
on the autumbond.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
Wait, did you ever answer the question of your least
but your least favorite.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
My least favorite button? Actually he doesn't make a sound.
It's it's it's worse than that. It's that little a
looks like an at sign. Yes, And what it does
is when you're stopped in traffic, it turns the engine off.
I can't stand that because it takes a moment or
two for it to restart. And I know it's one
(13:00):
of those stupid climate change things. It's all these progressive
left wing irritations. When when the beeps go off in
a car, I feel like I have one of these
screechy protesters going.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
And then they shut off my engine. Well, if I
want to.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Make a quick getaway for whatever reason at the light
or or pull out of traffic, it's like, you know,
it halts, it stalls.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
I do have a solution for you. What just get
a used car?
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Oh, I'm going to.
Speaker 7 (13:28):
It doesn't.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Oh, I'm going to.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
But by time they pass the all electric car, when
those all electric car laws going to effect, I'm going
to get like, you know, a nineteen eighty seven Plymouth
or something. I don't care if it gets eight miles
to the gallon and I am going to drive that
and I'm gonna I'm gonna cut the seat belt out.
You are, yes, I am. What year did they put
that annoying thing in? It's just leave me alone. If
(13:52):
I fly through the windshield, that's my problem. Had what
an annoying Oh, it's like all the laws they you know,
if your child is twelve years old, now kid's got
to be in a car seat. I mean, it kept
piling it on and piling it on, trying to make
the cars ultra safe, and then the deaths go up
(14:13):
every year. Anyway, So all these new requirements did not
make things safer because, for one reason, they allow homeless
people to want to the street in a drug addled haze,
and those are the ones who are getting killed and
driving up the.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Death hole.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Well, I do think seatbelts have cut down on some deaths.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
You don't think so, Yes, they have.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Yeah, I just I just want to freedom. I want
the freedom without any irritating noises. I want to drive
as fast as I can with the wind in my hair.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
You know, I know you need a convertible.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
I do.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
I would love a convertible. That's a no sale at home,
but I would I'd love a convertible. I'd love a
convertible that goes about one hundred and ten miles an hour.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
You can always turn up the radio when you're driving,
and then you won't hear turn it really loud, blasts
some music, and then you won't hear all those noises.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
I do you do, in fact, when I'm driving without
a seat belt. Yeah, That's what I'm doing them jackets
All right, more coming up.
Speaker 6 (15:12):
You're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Coming up after three o'clock like trolley from KFI News.
George Gascon had a press conference a short time ago.
Charges in two cases, the shooting of that sheriff's deputy
in West Covina shot in the back while he was
on his motorcycle and the woman who got stabbed to
death on the Metro subway train in Studio City. Both
(15:39):
have suspects that have been arrested Gascones holding his press
conference as he continues his quest to be he's suddenly
concerned about crime and victims. It's just pretty shocking the
turnaround here since he's running for reelection. Also, Chris Adler
from CAFI News is at usc that enormous demonstration against
(16:01):
the Jewish people that's going on there in favor of
the Palestinian Terrists, and if anything unusual happens, Chris will
be on with us immediately. Now, last thing I told
you about was all that little Gerbil Scott Wiener, the
state senator as has passed a has gotten through the
(16:22):
Transportation Committee, this new bill, which another annoying sound will
go off in your car starting with a model year
a few years down the road, and if you're more
than ten miles an hour over the speed limit, you
get another irritating sound. Along those lines. You may have
heard that people who have the on Star system in
(16:44):
their car found out that this on Star system was
tracking how they drive and reporting that private information back
to insurance companies, which in turn we're jacking up the rates.
And the reporter who broke that story is Kashmir Hill
and she has a follow up now because it affected
(17:08):
her family and she didn't even know it. This is
General Motors manufactured cars, and you get the on Star system,
and that's the system where let's say you have an accident,
it's a satellite connection and you can get help coming
to rescue you, or if you have a breakdown on Starbard,
(17:32):
we'll send you a tow truck. So the automakers have
been collecting this data and selling it to the insurance
industry and not telling drivers, at least in the case
of General Motors. According to Kashmir Hill, the insurance companies
will then jack up your premiums based on this privileged
information that they stole from you. And here's her story.
(17:55):
It actually happened to her and she found this out
after she broke the original story was going on. She
didn't realize that she and her husband were the victims.
She bought a GM Chevy Bolt in December twenty twenty three,
and this month, in May April, rather, her husband received
(18:17):
his consumer disclosure files from a company called Lexus, Nexus
Risk Solutions and Verisik Verisk. Now, these two companies collect data,
they're data brokers, and so he got to see his
own data. They sent him his own data on his
driving habits, and he was shocked to find out that
(18:41):
GM had something called smart Driver connected to his Chevy Bolt,
which recorded all his driving habits and sent it to
the insurance company. The Lexus Nexus report had a breakdown
of two hundred and three trips we'd taken in the car,
including the distance, the start and end times, and how
(19:03):
often we hardbreaked or accelerated rapidly. And I guess every
time you do that, you get dinged on your insurance.
The Varisk report dated back to December. They had two
hundred and ninety seven trips eighteen hundred and ninety miles driven,
forty two hundred driving minutes, one hundred and seventy hard
(19:24):
break events, twenty four rapid accelerations. And they called GM
and saying what the hell, Because it turns out they said, well,
you're subscribing to smart Driver, and she and her husband said, no,
(19:46):
we never subscribed to that. And it turns out that
the salesman automatically signed them up without telling them. Our
Chevy Bolt came with eight years of something called Connected Access,
which we didn't know about. GM can send software updates
to our car, but also collect data from it, which
(20:09):
is actions people you consent to when you sign up
for on Star, and the salesman admitted that he selects
yes to enroll you it on Star. Then he selects
yes for the customer to receive text messages and it's
become automatic and salespeople are not supposed to be doing that.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
Do they get a kickback?
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Well, that's that's first thing.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
I wonder how much does GM get for sending this
information to the insurance.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
Company there has, because what's the incentive.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
And how much does a salesperson get right individually?
Speaker 2 (20:45):
So suddenly you get these insurance companies, you're getting all
this private information, and of course they have some opaque
formula that says, oh, looks like we got to jack
up the rights twenty seven percent. And when you protest,
they're going to say, well, you had one hundred and
many hard break events.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Now is that high?
Speaker 7 (21:02):
Is that?
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Well?
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Who knows.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
They'll just make it up and say, oh, it's enough
to raise the raids. See see I'm not going to
ever connect.
Speaker 4 (21:11):
Well I'm not either, No way, I had no idea.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
This is what the state wants to do. But the
state a few years ago had a bill that would
track how many miles we drive and then they would
impose a driving tax per mile. But what else would
they do while they recorded how many miles you drive?
This kind of stuff now with the technology out there,
it's fantastic technology.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
It counts your acceleration moments.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
Well, there's no context to the acceleration, right your hard break?
Isn't it good that you slam on the break?
Speaker 3 (21:47):
They'd rather us hit somebody and cause an accident, and
then they have to cover that.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
So if somebody in front of you slams on the brake,
if you hit the brake too, you get penalized. Well,
you just saved maybe ten thousand dollars worth of damage.
You might have saved your life by slamming on the brake.
Why why does that jack up your insurance? That should
lower your insurance? It says, maybe you're attentive. I mean,
(22:15):
this is this is outrageous, and it's a whole long
story because you know, they go back and forth to
various companies and everybody points fingers at somebody else. And
one lawyer says, their job gm salespersons is to sell cars.
It's not to understand the details of privacy products, and
(22:37):
you just can't expect them to know what they're doing,
you know. One one salesman Solo said, no, no, we
always have the customers accept the terms themselves.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
It's like, yeah, except but they don't.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
I'm sure if I was, if I had that option,
I wouldn't.
Speaker 4 (22:54):
Even have noticed.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
No, I don't. I don't want to be tracked by anything. Look,
I can't.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
I can't stand online if I can find any setting
on my devices to block everybody from tracking anything I
do online.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
I click that choice, and a lot of them are
you have to?
Speaker 3 (23:10):
You know, when it asks you about cookies and then
it says only the you know, I forgot the terminology.
But one of the options you can't black out is
I forgot what it's called. But the necessary ones. I
think it's truly necessary ones.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Yeah, I mean there's certain cookies you need so that
the system functions, or you're always starting from square one.
Like you want them to recognize your identity and your
password and your user name, so every time, like if
I go on, I go on like fifty new sides
a day, right, I want them to recognize me as John.
Otherwise I'd be constantly resubmitting the information to allow myself
(23:51):
onto the site, and that would just take too long.
I understand that, But the rest of the spine that
goes on, no, I love it.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
When I get to click do not sell my person information?
Speaker 2 (24:01):
I know now when I go on news sites in Europe,
like London news sites, they have a rule, a mandatory
rule that you could opt out of all tracking. Yeah,
they don't have that in this country, but they do
in Europe. We need that, oh, I know. I Unfortunately,
we have like a couple of generations now that have
(24:22):
gotten used to all this. I mean even talking to
my kids, they go, oh, what's the big deal. I mean,
there's no such thing as privacy. It's like, well there
is for me. You guys don't want it. You're free
not to have privacy. But good lord, they're gonna be.
They're tracking how many times I break, how many times
I accelerate? And then Scott Wiener wants to is he
(24:43):
ever get turned out? I feel like I've been talking
about him all my life? When does he go away?
Can't he go to some other state and stick his
oily little nose in their lives?
Speaker 6 (24:55):
You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI AM
six four.
Speaker 7 (25:02):
We'd like to formally welcome you to the rest home
of old Joe. Welcome to Bidenville everyone, oh.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Women created by go You know that you know the
thing I choose my words.
Speaker 8 (25:15):
Happy birthday, Happy birthday to you.
Speaker 9 (25:22):
Iwear since the day he died, every single day the
rosary he got from where lad and every time I
hear hell of the chief under where the hell is
he turned around?
Speaker 1 (25:32):
On where where's where's the president?
Speaker 9 (25:33):
There's some attention paid to some language and the report
about my recollection of events. I was the foot him
assume me the foothills of the Himalays with Shiji Pan
For Secretary of Health and Educations over, I nominated Hobbyer Bakaria.
As you know, initially the president of Mexico CCI did
not want to open up the gate.
Speaker 7 (25:53):
I got the one point nine tillion dollars relief so far.
Speaker 9 (25:57):
Talker, Yeah, little cryptocracy. The guys who were the kleptocracy
representative Jackie you here, where's Jackie? I think she was
going to be here. There's bet a response from the opposition,
But yes, I'm sorry. We're from mamas also want to
(26:21):
mentioned commerce Deva Ross. Where's Deborah this year? I just
had my picture take with her? Oh she couldn't be
here actually.
Speaker 7 (26:30):
And now to give you a tour of Bidenville before
your extended stay, here's John Cobelt.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
Yes, KFI AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeart
Radio app. Biden just makes up things that never happened repeatedly,
and he's at it again.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
In fact, he revived an oldie.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
He was at a campaign event yesterday and he periodically
insists people that it used to be a truck driver
and he drove an eighteen wheeler. Now, they have researched
this story every possible way for several years now, and
he never did that.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
That was never a job of his.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
I mean, maybe he popped into an eighteen wheeler at
a campaign event at some point in his fifty years,
but he never had a job driving an eighteen wheeler.
But he did it again yesterday played cut number one.
Speaker 9 (27:25):
Besides, I used to drive an eighteen wheeler. You know
what I did. That's exactly right.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
He said this back on July twenty eighth, twenty twenty one.
We played the clip on the show, so we still
have it. Here's Biden from almost three years ago.
Speaker 9 (27:44):
And anyway, and if we woke to drive an eighteen wheeler, man, oh,
that's a lot too.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
No, he never drove an eighteen wheeler. Why is that
the thing you want to brag about? I guess he
thinks that that gives him some credibility with the working class.
That's just a strange thing to constantly insist of people,
and and and so what if he did? Now we
have another clip of Biden. This is uh him reading
(28:15):
a teleprompter. And when you give a formal speech on
a teleprompter, it'll give you stage directions.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
And in this case, it was telling him to pause.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
And I guess the audience was supposed to chant four
more years. During the pause, we'll see play this cut
six four more years?
Speaker 9 (28:39):
Oh, four more years?
Speaker 8 (28:49):
Oh, idiots, and the audience start chatting together.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
What's wrong with people? Why do that?
Speaker 2 (29:10):
Would you spend the day sitting in an auditorium where
this the propped up, this corpse, and and he says
say four more years, pause, four more years.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Four more years? Everybody banging their flippers together. Oh my god.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
Well, at least the audience didn't say pause.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Four more years. Pause. Now in uh in New York.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
You know, they've got a lot of illegal aliens and
these are not sweet women and children. Now, a lot
of them are young men. A lot of them are
out of really are out of prisons and gangs. And
you know what young men do at night. Maybe they're drunk,
maybe they're bored. Well, there was a big mob outside
a hotel in midtown, Manhattan on Eighth Avenue, and they
(29:58):
ended up playing audio in the background while to describe this.
What you're hearing is about a dozen illegal aliens, also
known as asylum seekers, and this is in the this
is in the.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Middle of the day.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
They started swinging sticks, belts, and traffic cones at each other.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
One of them was swinging a bat at the mob.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
Eventually, somebody's taken to the ground and gets pummeled by
four other migrants, and they had this big brawl. Two
men wearing bicycle helmets are seen and they were like
two sides. They broke off into two sides, and motorists
just kept driving by the brawl. It's like didn't FaZe anybody.
(30:47):
One of the migrants comes up behind another and smacks
him in the head. Knocks the helmet off his head
before running away across Eighth Avenue. The hotel is called
the Row and it's one of dozens of hotels converted
to illegal alien shelters. It's on Twitter if you want
(31:10):
to see the video on Twitter and you'll get a
sense of you know, a bunch of board. Guy turns
out to the middle of the day. I just assumed
it was a night. It was the middle of the day.
So it's at John Cobelt Radio on Twitter. In fact,
you can follow us at John Cobelt Radio for all
your social media purposes.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
Are so I'm constantly told.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Now three o'clock means we have Blake trolley coming on
Blake with KFI News. George Gascone had a news conference earlier.
Two cases charges in both. One is the shooting in
the back of a sheriff's deputy in West Covina and
then that poor woman who got stabbed to death and
there's a whole story about her life too. She got
(31:49):
stabbed at the Metro subway train at five in the
morning in studio sitting earlier this week. Both have suspects
that have been arrested. Gascon spoke because he's running for reelection.
He cares about victims. Now, hey, you've been listening to
The John Cobalt Show podcast. You can always hear the
show live on KFI Am six forty from one to
four pm every Monday through Friday, and of course, anytime
(32:12):
on demand on the iHeartRadio app
Can't. I am six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobel Podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
We're on here from one until four and then after
four o'clock John Cobel Show on demand on the iHeart app. Moistline,
How are we doing taking calls on the moist Line?
We need some eight seven seven moist eighty six. Eight
seven seven moist eighty six. We're only two days away
from playing them on Friday. So if you got something
that's making you crazy, maybe these stupid protests are making
(00:23):
you crazy. Eight seven seven moistady six or the talkback
feature on the iHeartRadio App. I want to thank the
people at Philly's Best Philly's Best cheese steaks, and they
are my favorite cheese steaks out here in LA. In fact,
they came out here the same year I did. And
(00:43):
they're scattered all over. There's one in Burbank, but they've
got a new one opening in West Hollywood. Yeah give
me that, because in West Hollywood on May the fourth?
Speaker 1 (00:54):
What day is May the fourth? Saturday? Good?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
All right, Saturday, May fourth? You head to Philly's Best
on seven threefty seventy three fifty Melrose Avenue and the
first fifty people in line that day will get a
free classic cheese steak or a classic chicken cheese steak,
and everybody's going to get twenty percent off their orders
that day. It's in the Melrose Arts District, seventy three
fifty Melrose.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
It's uh.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
And they got me a cheese steak today, and they're
feeding everybody here at KFI and I get I get
a real cheese steak.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
I got a vegetarian, a vegan, a vegan. It was
very nice of them.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
That is nice.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
They brought me a vegan sandwich and I appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
That's that is really wonderful of them.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Yes, I'm I'm happy, but I don't want to think
about vegan stuff. Well, I'm enjoying cheese steak, I know.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
But see, they also can cater to other people that
that don't eat.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Other people, other minority groups exactly.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Excuse me, now, this this place is the only one
that makes them the same way they do back East,
because I grew up in New Jersey and I spent
a lot of time in the Philly and New York
areas and cheese steaks were the specialty of that region.
I came out here and I have eaten a lot
of inferior cheese steaks, and then I found Philly's Best
(02:12):
and this is definitely number one. So May fourth, Saturday,
seventy three, fifty Melrose Avenue. There you go, all right,
now onto we have Chris Adler at USC to see
if that demonstration turns into anything larger than it is.
It's a pretty crowded there, and a boy, am I
(02:33):
tired of see intents? I am so sick of see intents.
Kate Sanchez is an assembly woman who has a bill
that would double the fine for protesters who block a
highway and increase the fine for people who commit multiple offenses.
(02:54):
I think everybody was disgusted with the Golden gate Bridge
being shut down for almost five hours last week by
these these Palestinian protesters. He's got she got a lot
of Democratic support too. Uh. Let's let's talk to Kate
Sanchez here in southern California. You just run through a
short list of the towns you represent.
Speaker 5 (03:15):
So people know sure a Mission Baho register to Margarita,
Ladera Ranch, Coda de Casa, Marietta, Temechuelo, Wildemar are just
a few of the cities.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
I represent, well, that's where a lot of normal people live. Now,
now we're dealing with these protesters, and it's interesting that
you seem to have a fair amount of support from
both Democrats and Republicans up in Sacramento. So I imagine
that Golden Gate Bridge thing really got a lot of
people agitated, oh very much so.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
And you know what, honestly, it was nice to finally
see Democrats decide to wake up and realize this banana
republic that we're in is not working, the status quo
is not working, and we're finally able to get some traction.
Now does this bill do it all? Absolutely not, but
it's absolutely a step in the right direction.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
There are some medical issues with the.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
With when the San Francisco Oakland Bay Bridge was shut down,
like Oregon, transplants were delayed, is that true?
Speaker 5 (04:11):
Yes, And timely routine surgeries that they thought were you know,
the organ pansl in thirty minutes, turned into a four
six hour delay. They had surgery scheduled. We saw examples
of that. They were able to tell us testimony. But
I'm telling you, finally we're starting to see movement, and
it's because we're continuing to push back on these crazy, radical,
out of touch policies coming out of Sacramento.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Well, you also need the local city officials to tell
the police do what you have to do and get
them off the road as quickly as possible, because I
think the police are held back by the idiot wok
politicians in a place like San Francisco or Oakland.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
Absolutely, and honestly I'm excited because the more we're able
to enable and help empower our locals and our das.
We need to make sure they have the tools in
the books that they're able to prosecute. Oftentimes they build
negotiated down to nothing. So I think doubling the penalties
is a reasonable step in the right direction.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Yeah, So how much should the penalties be so they
would start to.
Speaker 5 (05:09):
Actually they start at one hundred, it would double the
two hundred, and with season assessments it it actually can
go up to four thousand dollars depending on the frequency
of the offense.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Right, But we got to.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Get the prosecutors to actually prosecute because I keep reading
about some of these demonstrations, I think just in New York.
One of the big ones may have been in Columbia,
where they rested a couple hundred people and then everybody
got let go the next day and no charges.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
So I can tell you my staff and I worked
really hard to try to find an example where they
weren't actually all these misdemeanors they have the das you know,
they're unwilling or unable to prosecute them. So quite honestly,
there was not a single example or misimane a punishment successful.
I mean, it's just it's wild. It's so frustrating.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Yeah, I know, nothing nothing is enforced anymore, absolutely nothing,
which is why you're going to see that these protests
are going to get worse and worse and worse.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
I mean, I'm looking.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
At now a helicopter shot or from a plane in
New York of Columbia, and they've got it looks like
a couple one hundred tenths at the university, and most
of were the same.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Most of them look like the exact same models.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Somebody is you know, emptying the Amazon warehouse, and it's
got to be organized groups that are well funded. These
are not just students doing this. There has to be
a whole you know, chain of command to get the
tents there in place.
Speaker 5 (06:37):
And exactly, and I understand that we honestly this is
an incredibly timely bill, but we just were not safe anymore.
And I think the more we're seeing what a banana
of public this has been, this has become, I honestly
think that we need to keep pushing and stop this
incredible infanity. It's just it's too much.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
It's too much, Okay, all right, So it got out
of a committee, right which committee was that it was.
Speaker 5 (07:02):
Gotten out of Transportation with bipartisan support, shockingly, and what
was gonn announce in appropriation coming up? So I'll be
sure to keep you posting.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Oh please keep us posted. And we hope this passes,
and I hope it gets enforced once it passes. Thank
you Kate Sanchez from Orange County, the assembly woman who
has got support to increase the penalties for the idiots
who block major highways and roadways.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Like the Golden Gate Bridge.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Honest to god, three organ transplants were delayed at a
local hospital when the San Francisco Oakland Bay Bridge was
shut down and out for this crap. I once I
go off, I mean it's not We've got more coming up.
Get hurt in an accident and that can change your life.
So you need some strength in that situation. You need
(07:51):
to call Sweet James. When one of my listeners got
hurt in a motorcycle accident, he got shocked. I mean,
it was a low ball offer from the insurance company
that he couldn't believe. So he called Sweet James and
the attorney's there.
Speaker 6 (08:04):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Boy, this next one makes me want to move out
of the state.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
As if I don't, we all don't have enough reasons
to get out of California. And wouldn't you know that
that evil little gerbil Scott Wiener, he's a state senator
and he is behind a long string of an intrusive, annoying,
nanny state bills and he's got another one, and man,
(08:35):
the public's got to wake up and stop this crap
Wiener got passed the Senate Transportation Committee. This is the
same committee that we just talked to Kate Sanchez about
and she got she's getting the bill passed that would
increase the fines for stupid protests that blocked freeways. Well,
(08:56):
this other thing that passed at a committee would require
new cars sold in the state to be built with
something that automatically warns you when you're driving ten miles
an hour over the speed limit.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
You just are upset because you always do that. You
don't want to be reminded of breaking a rule.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
That's right. I want to do that.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
I want to speed, and I don't want more beeps
going off in my car.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
The next thing is going to be a beep when
you're driving in the carpool lane without a passenger.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Now, what kind of noise will it make If I'm
also more than ten miles over the speed limit and
I'm driving in the car pool aane verry loud, It'd
be a big loud alarm is going to go off.
There is no reason. There's no reason to sit in
traffic when you have a free carpool lane.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
None.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
I know when I drive home every day, John, I
see in the carpool lane there are solo drivers. And
I know with my luck as we all know, that
if I go into the car pool lane, I'm gonna
be the one that's gonna get pulled over.
Speaker 7 (10:04):
One day.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
You're gonna see me blow past you.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Call you, and I'm gonna yell at you, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
I'm gonna give you a little beep beep.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
So so do you know how many beeps go off?
Now I have a car, it's about it's a little
over four years old, but not too long ago. My
car needed some service and they gave me a loaner
car at the dealership. So now I've got this loaner
car that's four years later. It's a twenty twenty four
(10:36):
model a year and I couldn't believe this thing would
not shut up. If you drift a little bit to
the left in the lane, betpep beep, a little bit
to the right, beetpep beep beep. If it senses you're
too close to the car in front of you, big
beepep beep.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
You know.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
On top of the stupid seat belt thing which has
been been around forever and an annoys the hell out
of me because sometimes you know, I'm getting myself together,
I don't have to seep on right away.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
Is like ding ding ding ding.
Speaker 8 (11:03):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
And then the one button I hate the most. What
button you think I hate the most?
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Uh? If you're going if you're going too fast and
it slows your car down.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Well that's what they're proposing.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Because I have that in my car if I'm going
to do yes, if I'm going too fast, all of
a sudden, it's self correct. It's scary, really, Yeah, you
can turn that setting off.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Yeah. Sometimes it's hard to find those settings.
Speaker 6 (11:27):
Yeah, I know.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Well, the original version of the of the bill by
the little Gerbil Scott Wiener was to put what those
restricts in all cars, and I guess there's a lot
of pushback, and now he's settling for just warning motorists
when they're driving ten miles over the limit. But is
it that's going to be every time? And is that
(11:48):
going to be the whole time that you're you're over
the limit? I mean, you drive on a freeway, you
should be allowed to drive as fast as you can.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Is there going to be an option to turn that off?
I don't like a setting in the car.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
Probably not.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
And he's such this little nanny nitty. I understand that
people like to be able to go as fast as
they want to. All we're saying is let's do a
reminder when you're going significantly about the Steve woman, so
you can be reminded to slow down when I'm speeding.
I know I'm speeding. I don't need a reminder that's
on purpose. I want to speed, and if I don't
(12:26):
have cars in front of me, there's no reason I
can't speed.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Say, in Germany, you go one hundred miles an hour
on the autumbond.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
Wait, did you ever answer the question of your least
but your least favorite.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
My least favorite button? Actually he doesn't make a sound.
It's it's it's worse than that. It's that little a
looks like an at sign. Yes, And what it does
is when you're stopped in traffic, it turns the engine off.
I can't stand that because it takes a moment or
two for it to restart. And I know it's one
(13:00):
of those stupid climate change things. It's all these progressive
left wing irritations. When when the beeps go off in
a car, I feel like I have one of these
screechy protesters going.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
And then they shut off my engine. Well, if I
want to.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Make a quick getaway for whatever reason at the light
or or pull out of traffic, it's like, you know,
it halts, it stalls.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
I do have a solution for you. What just get
a used car?
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Oh, I'm going to.
Speaker 7 (13:28):
It doesn't.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Oh, I'm going to.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
But by time they pass the all electric car, when
those all electric car laws going to effect, I'm going
to get like, you know, a nineteen eighty seven Plymouth
or something. I don't care if it gets eight miles
to the gallon and I am going to drive that
and I'm gonna I'm gonna cut the seat belt out.
You are, yes, I am. What year did they put
that annoying thing in? It's just leave me alone. If
(13:52):
I fly through the windshield, that's my problem. Had what
an annoying Oh, it's like all the laws they you know,
if your child is twelve years old, now kid's got
to be in a car seat. I mean, it kept
piling it on and piling it on, trying to make
the cars ultra safe, and then the deaths go up
(14:13):
every year. Anyway, So all these new requirements did not
make things safer because, for one reason, they allow homeless
people to want to the street in a drug addled haze,
and those are the ones who are getting killed and
driving up the.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Death hole.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Well, I do think seatbelts have cut down on some deaths.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
You don't think so, Yes, they have.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Yeah, I just I just want to freedom. I want
the freedom without any irritating noises. I want to drive
as fast as I can with the wind in my hair.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
You know, I know you need a convertible.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
I do.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
I would love a convertible. That's a no sale at home,
but I would I'd love a convertible. I'd love a
convertible that goes about one hundred and ten miles an hour.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
You can always turn up the radio when you're driving,
and then you won't hear turn it really loud, blasts
some music, and then you won't hear all those noises.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
I do you do, in fact, when I'm driving without
a seat belt. Yeah, That's what I'm doing them jackets
All right, more coming up.
Speaker 6 (15:12):
You're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Coming up after three o'clock like trolley from KFI News.
George Gascon had a press conference a short time ago.
Charges in two cases, the shooting of that sheriff's deputy
in West Covina shot in the back while he was
on his motorcycle and the woman who got stabbed to
death on the Metro subway train in Studio City. Both
(15:39):
have suspects that have been arrested Gascones holding his press
conference as he continues his quest to be he's suddenly
concerned about crime and victims. It's just pretty shocking the
turnaround here since he's running for reelection. Also, Chris Adler
from CAFI News is at usc that enormous demonstration against
(16:01):
the Jewish people that's going on there in favor of
the Palestinian Terrists, and if anything unusual happens, Chris will
be on with us immediately. Now, last thing I told
you about was all that little Gerbil Scott Wiener, the
state senator as has passed a has gotten through the
(16:22):
Transportation Committee, this new bill, which another annoying sound will
go off in your car starting with a model year
a few years down the road, and if you're more
than ten miles an hour over the speed limit, you
get another irritating sound. Along those lines. You may have
heard that people who have the on Star system in
(16:44):
their car found out that this on Star system was
tracking how they drive and reporting that private information back
to insurance companies, which in turn we're jacking up the rates.
And the reporter who broke that story is Kashmir Hill
and she has a follow up now because it affected
(17:08):
her family and she didn't even know it. This is
General Motors manufactured cars, and you get the on Star system,
and that's the system where let's say you have an accident,
it's a satellite connection and you can get help coming
to rescue you, or if you have a breakdown on Starbard,
(17:32):
we'll send you a tow truck. So the automakers have
been collecting this data and selling it to the insurance
industry and not telling drivers, at least in the case
of General Motors. According to Kashmir Hill, the insurance companies
will then jack up your premiums based on this privileged
information that they stole from you. And here's her story.
(17:55):
It actually happened to her and she found this out
after she broke the original story was going on. She
didn't realize that she and her husband were the victims.
She bought a GM Chevy Bolt in December twenty twenty three,
and this month, in May April, rather, her husband received
(18:17):
his consumer disclosure files from a company called Lexus, Nexus
Risk Solutions and Verisik Verisk. Now, these two companies collect data,
they're data brokers, and so he got to see his
own data. They sent him his own data on his
driving habits, and he was shocked to find out that
(18:41):
GM had something called smart Driver connected to his Chevy Bolt,
which recorded all his driving habits and sent it to
the insurance company. The Lexus Nexus report had a breakdown
of two hundred and three trips we'd taken in the car,
including the distance, the start and end times, and how
(19:03):
often we hardbreaked or accelerated rapidly. And I guess every
time you do that, you get dinged on your insurance.
The Varisk report dated back to December. They had two
hundred and ninety seven trips eighteen hundred and ninety miles driven,
forty two hundred driving minutes, one hundred and seventy hard
(19:24):
break events, twenty four rapid accelerations. And they called GM
and saying what the hell, Because it turns out they said, well,
you're subscribing to smart Driver, and she and her husband said, no,
(19:46):
we never subscribed to that. And it turns out that
the salesman automatically signed them up without telling them. Our
Chevy Bolt came with eight years of something called Connected Access,
which we didn't know about. GM can send software updates
to our car, but also collect data from it, which
(20:09):
is actions people you consent to when you sign up
for on Star, and the salesman admitted that he selects
yes to enroll you it on Star. Then he selects
yes for the customer to receive text messages and it's
become automatic and salespeople are not supposed to be doing that.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
Do they get a kickback?
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Well, that's that's first thing.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
I wonder how much does GM get for sending this
information to the insurance.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
Company there has, because what's the incentive.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
And how much does a salesperson get right individually?
Speaker 2 (20:45):
So suddenly you get these insurance companies, you're getting all
this private information, and of course they have some opaque
formula that says, oh, looks like we got to jack
up the rights twenty seven percent. And when you protest,
they're going to say, well, you had one hundred and
many hard break events.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Now is that high?
Speaker 7 (21:02):
Is that?
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Well?
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Who knows.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
They'll just make it up and say, oh, it's enough
to raise the raids. See see I'm not going to
ever connect.
Speaker 4 (21:11):
Well I'm not either, No way, I had no idea.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
This is what the state wants to do. But the
state a few years ago had a bill that would
track how many miles we drive and then they would
impose a driving tax per mile. But what else would
they do while they recorded how many miles you drive?
This kind of stuff now with the technology out there,
it's fantastic technology.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
It counts your acceleration moments.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
Well, there's no context to the acceleration, right your hard break?
Isn't it good that you slam on the break?
Speaker 3 (21:47):
They'd rather us hit somebody and cause an accident, and
then they have to cover that.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
So if somebody in front of you slams on the brake,
if you hit the brake too, you get penalized. Well,
you just saved maybe ten thousand dollars worth of damage.
You might have saved your life by slamming on the brake.
Why why does that jack up your insurance? That should
lower your insurance? It says, maybe you're attentive. I mean,
(22:15):
this is this is outrageous, and it's a whole long
story because you know, they go back and forth to
various companies and everybody points fingers at somebody else. And
one lawyer says, their job gm salespersons is to sell cars.
It's not to understand the details of privacy products, and
(22:37):
you just can't expect them to know what they're doing,
you know. One one salesman Solo said, no, no, we
always have the customers accept the terms themselves.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
It's like, yeah, except but they don't.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
I'm sure if I was, if I had that option,
I wouldn't.
Speaker 4 (22:54):
Even have noticed.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
No, I don't. I don't want to be tracked by anything. Look,
I can't.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
I can't stand online if I can find any setting
on my devices to block everybody from tracking anything I
do online.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
I click that choice, and a lot of them are
you have to?
Speaker 3 (23:10):
You know, when it asks you about cookies and then
it says only the you know, I forgot the terminology.
But one of the options you can't black out is
I forgot what it's called. But the necessary ones. I
think it's truly necessary ones.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Yeah, I mean there's certain cookies you need so that
the system functions, or you're always starting from square one.
Like you want them to recognize your identity and your
password and your user name, so every time, like if
I go on, I go on like fifty new sides
a day, right, I want them to recognize me as John.
Otherwise I'd be constantly resubmitting the information to allow myself
(23:51):
onto the site, and that would just take too long.
I understand that, But the rest of the spine that
goes on, no, I love it.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
When I get to click do not sell my person information?
Speaker 2 (24:01):
I know now when I go on news sites in Europe,
like London news sites, they have a rule, a mandatory
rule that you could opt out of all tracking. Yeah,
they don't have that in this country, but they do
in Europe. We need that, oh, I know. I Unfortunately,
we have like a couple of generations now that have
(24:22):
gotten used to all this. I mean even talking to
my kids, they go, oh, what's the big deal. I mean,
there's no such thing as privacy. It's like, well there
is for me. You guys don't want it. You're free
not to have privacy. But good lord, they're gonna be.
They're tracking how many times I break, how many times
I accelerate? And then Scott Wiener wants to is he
(24:43):
ever get turned out? I feel like I've been talking
about him all my life? When does he go away?
Can't he go to some other state and stick his
oily little nose in their lives?
Speaker 6 (24:55):
You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI AM
six four.
Speaker 7 (25:02):
We'd like to formally welcome you to the rest home
of old Joe. Welcome to Bidenville everyone, oh.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Women created by go You know that you know the
thing I choose my words.
Speaker 8 (25:15):
Happy birthday, Happy birthday to you.
Speaker 9 (25:22):
Iwear since the day he died, every single day the
rosary he got from where lad and every time I
hear hell of the chief under where the hell is
he turned around?
Speaker 1 (25:32):
On where where's where's the president?
Speaker 9 (25:33):
There's some attention paid to some language and the report
about my recollection of events. I was the foot him
assume me the foothills of the Himalays with Shiji Pan
For Secretary of Health and Educations over, I nominated Hobbyer Bakaria.
As you know, initially the president of Mexico CCI did
not want to open up the gate.
Speaker 7 (25:53):
I got the one point nine tillion dollars relief so far.
Speaker 9 (25:57):
Talker, Yeah, little cryptocracy. The guys who were the kleptocracy
representative Jackie you here, where's Jackie? I think she was
going to be here. There's bet a response from the opposition,
But yes, I'm sorry. We're from mamas also want to
(26:21):
mentioned commerce Deva Ross. Where's Deborah this year? I just
had my picture take with her? Oh she couldn't be
here actually.
Speaker 7 (26:30):
And now to give you a tour of Bidenville before
your extended stay, here's John Cobelt.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
Yes, KFI AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeart
Radio app. Biden just makes up things that never happened repeatedly,
and he's at it again.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
In fact, he revived an oldie.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
He was at a campaign event yesterday and he periodically
insists people that it used to be a truck driver
and he drove an eighteen wheeler. Now, they have researched
this story every possible way for several years now, and
he never did that.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
That was never a job of his.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
I mean, maybe he popped into an eighteen wheeler at
a campaign event at some point in his fifty years,
but he never had a job driving an eighteen wheeler.
But he did it again yesterday played cut number one.
Speaker 9 (27:25):
Besides, I used to drive an eighteen wheeler. You know
what I did. That's exactly right.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
He said this back on July twenty eighth, twenty twenty one.
We played the clip on the show, so we still
have it. Here's Biden from almost three years ago.
Speaker 9 (27:44):
And anyway, and if we woke to drive an eighteen wheeler, man, oh,
that's a lot too.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
No, he never drove an eighteen wheeler. Why is that
the thing you want to brag about? I guess he
thinks that that gives him some credibility with the working class.
That's just a strange thing to constantly insist of people,
and and and so what if he did? Now we
have another clip of Biden. This is uh him reading
(28:15):
a teleprompter. And when you give a formal speech on
a teleprompter, it'll give you stage directions.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
And in this case, it was telling him to pause.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
And I guess the audience was supposed to chant four
more years. During the pause, we'll see play this cut
six four more years?
Speaker 9 (28:39):
Oh, four more years?
Speaker 8 (28:49):
Oh, idiots, and the audience start chatting together.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
What's wrong with people? Why do that?
Speaker 2 (29:10):
Would you spend the day sitting in an auditorium where
this the propped up, this corpse, and and he says
say four more years, pause, four more years.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Four more years? Everybody banging their flippers together. Oh my god.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
Well, at least the audience didn't say pause.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Four more years. Pause. Now in uh in New York.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
You know, they've got a lot of illegal aliens and
these are not sweet women and children. Now, a lot
of them are young men. A lot of them are
out of really are out of prisons and gangs. And
you know what young men do at night. Maybe they're drunk,
maybe they're bored. Well, there was a big mob outside
a hotel in midtown, Manhattan on Eighth Avenue, and they
(29:58):
ended up playing audio in the background while to describe this.
What you're hearing is about a dozen illegal aliens, also
known as asylum seekers, and this is in the this
is in the.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Middle of the day.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
They started swinging sticks, belts, and traffic cones at each other.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
One of them was swinging a bat at the mob.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
Eventually, somebody's taken to the ground and gets pummeled by
four other migrants, and they had this big brawl. Two
men wearing bicycle helmets are seen and they were like
two sides. They broke off into two sides, and motorists
just kept driving by the brawl. It's like didn't FaZe anybody.
(30:47):
One of the migrants comes up behind another and smacks
him in the head. Knocks the helmet off his head
before running away across Eighth Avenue. The hotel is called
the Row and it's one of dozens of hotels converted
to illegal alien shelters. It's on Twitter if you want
(31:10):
to see the video on Twitter and you'll get a
sense of you know, a bunch of board. Guy turns
out to the middle of the day. I just assumed
it was a night. It was the middle of the day.
So it's at John Cobelt Radio on Twitter. In fact,

Two cases charges in both. One is the shooting in
the back of a sheriff's deputy in West Covina and
then that poor woman who got stabbed to death and
there's a whole story about her life too. She got
(31:49):
stabbed at the Metro subway train at five in the
morning in studio sitting earlier this week. Both have suspects
