Now it's time for Neil Savadrinfoody Friday. Neil puts on
(01:26):

Speaker 2 (01:34):
So tomorrow two to five.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
He's at Fork Reporter that's his social handle, and I
really enjoy doing this, all right, Neil, Well, welcome.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
To the show, Neil, even though you've already been here
the whole morning.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
So good to be with you, Bill big fan.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Yeah, well, thank you very much, thank you. Okay, a
couple of topics, and let's start with spicy food. Now,
a lot of it. A lot of us like spicy food.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
I do to a point, but we both know people
that it can't be spicy enough.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
I mean, there is no difference. You know, you like
good spice, but you like flavorful spice.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
I do like favor. Some people just like it as
a halfy a half breed.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
I've got, you know, the European side on my mom's side,
which my mom.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Is basically, oh my gosh, what's that heat?
Speaker 1 (02:26):
It's an onion, mom, oh, And then on my dad's side,
which it you know, just add more capsation to the situation.
But it's not just a flavor, and I think people
get confused as to how it's used and white as
part of a culture and food, it can affect your
body in a lot of different ways. It can help
(02:46):
you cool down on hot days, which is why in
hot areas. You and I have traveled to different hot areas.
We've been to Morocco, We've been to a lot of
different places. But you you go and the spicy, you
go to India, you go to tie Land, and some
of the food is incredibly hot spicy because it actually
(03:07):
cools the body down. So some things that mechanically happen
physiologically happen when you're eating spicy food. It can cool
you down. It makes you sweat, which your vapor evaporates,
cools you down a lot of times. In other cultures
where in hot communities they'll drink hot tea or hot
drinks too. Where in the States where like put ice
(03:28):
in a cup and cool it down. It can increase
blood flow, so boosts your blood circulation. You can feel refresh.
There is some potential longevity to it. Regular eating of
spice might lower your risk for dying earlier by about
thirteen to fourteen percent, so says science. Weight loss, capsation
(03:48):
and being the oil that is spicy can slow down digestion,
make you feel fuller for longer, and that can help
with weight loss. Spicy foods can improve heart health, boosts
your good cholesterol, your HDL, lowering the bad stuff the
LDL sweet tooth reduction. It has something similar Bill, like
(04:11):
you know when you get a craving for sweets, if
you eat something spicy, it will your body will react
almost like you had sweets, So you may have less
craving for sweets. They do have some other things like
heartburn rather risk. Oh yeah, okay, you know that happens.
(04:32):
Sleep trouble can happen. You don't want to have a
before bad But they also have a weird reaction of
endorphins and dopamine.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Hey, so you know, I love it, but.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
It's like Indian food. I enjoy it, but I won't
go to the level. Vindaloo, for example, is some of
the spiciest Indian food that exists. And I remember the
first time I asked the waiter what's vingaloo? He goes, well,
we keep our grapevines in the bathroom.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
That's what we do in the loo. Vindaloo it's in
the louver. No fine vin wine in the loo. Okay,
not almost worry.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
By the way, if you haven't been to the tie place,
jet Latta here in La they are there on sunset
that it's I think in sunset they're fantastic, but they
have a certain part of the menu where you actually
have to sign a waiver because the food is so hot.
(05:42):
I can't eat that kind of hot heat. But I
you know, some people, they love the endorphins, the dope.
I meane they go after that high. That's not my thing.
But I do like the flavor.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Yeah, And I always ask for mild spice, even though
I can take it much hotter than that, because I
want much more flavor than I want heat.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
I don't want your tongue.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Yeah, I'd rather not.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
All right, Neil, let's do this Chick fil A, which
I happened to like. There's spicy chicken sandwich, and Chick
fil A has a sort of the same cult status
as in an out burger. It's always jammed, there's always
a huge line. Their first elevated drive through.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
What does that mean? What's that about?
Speaker 1 (06:25):
We started seeing designs for this come out a few
years ago, and not just for Chick fil A, but
for other rest you know, fast food restaurants that are
thinking more along the lines of the pandemic kind of
shifted things towards drive through, one of which is for
us the customer to drive through, but also for delivery drivers.
(06:47):
You know, there's more and more delivery being done, so
they've really looked at this new sleek design, innovative technology,
and it kind of breaks down this way. This first
one is in Georgia, opened on the twenty second or
open yesterday, rather has four drive through lanes and this
elevated kitchen, which means it's kind of above everything, very
(07:10):
sophisticated conveyor belt. It moves meals not only to the
team members below, but it's moving like every six seconds.
This thing is passing food along. The kitchen is twice
as large as your typical Chick fil a kitchen, massive
drive through capacity. Those four lanes that I told you
(07:31):
about could handle two to three times more vehicles than
a standard drive through. As far as order options, customers
can either order ahead, you know, by using the app
and that type of thing, and they'll have a particular
line to go through, or traditionally at the drive through lanes,
no dine in, so that you know, the restaurant itself
(07:51):
is gone and this elevated design is just there to
streamline the food delivery, prove service speeds, all of those things.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Yeah, I can see that. I mean that all makes sense.
But the taking away the dine in is I mean,
come on, I go to dine.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
In fast food and it's at lunchtime. It's jammed. People
go there for lunch. Are they gonna lose business because
of that?
Speaker 2 (08:19):
They should know? Well, because you've got multiple locations.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
I don't know if every location is going to adapt this,
but you're gonna have to have certain power locations in
certain parts of cities or that have a lot of
demand for this. I don't like here in LA I
don't want to go in and sit in these places
anymore because half of them are filled with the unhoused
or people that are screaming at nobody and it's not
(08:49):
that great of an experience and they're fining. This is
not them doing it and then us reacting. Bill. This
is really them seeing the reaction of people and accommodating
us the customer.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
You know, you're looking innovations.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
You're looking at life negatively, and this is where I'm
going to be positive for a change you have. This
is equivalent to a drive in A drive in theater
right where when you talk about the unhoused and people
screaming drive ins, you get both the entertainment on the
screen and you have food. So you go to a
(09:27):
fast food place, you get the food and the entertainment
of crazy people screaming.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
And not bathing. I'm telling you it works.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Well. I see you go in, eat at a at
a fast food restaurant, and then go to a drive in. Bill,
when was the last time you went to a drive in?
Speaker 2 (09:47):
It's been a few years.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
It's yeah, I know they're all swap meets now run
by people that have indeterminate Uh. Well, I'm I want
to be very careful about this. Uh I think determine ethnicity. Okay,
does that work?
Speaker 2 (10:05):
I don't know what that means either do I. But
I'm not going to get in trouble for you don't
know who they are. No, And I'm not going to
listen that.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
Really, I'm not gonna go there, even though you're pushing
me to go there, Neil, I am not going there anything.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Sure you are, the only thing I.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Would ever push you is off a cliff. I am
not trying to ever get you to say anything on
the air, all right.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
I will say this.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
There are a few drive through still left, and now
they are pop ups, so you know, you get theaters
on top of buildings like the Americana and the like,
but those are different.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Real quickly, I'm going to be in Las Vegas.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
I'm taking a flight this afternoon after the show, and
I'm gonna we talked about this, I'm going into. It's
a restaurant that shows movies on the screen, and the
movies are food oriented or have a great Food is
a big part of it, and they serve the food
that you see on the screen, so it all ties together.
(11:09):
For example, the movie I'm seeing is Rattatui.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Tomorrow, and also they're gonna serve rats.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
Yeah, they're gonna serve rats. Yeah, ratatuhy.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I mean it's just that sounds like I can't wait up.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
My daughter figured that out and so I do foody,
you know, occasionally I go without her, you know, because
she's such a foodie freak.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Well, I hope they don't show that movie Alive where
they get stranded in the Alps.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Or the Jeffrey Dahmer story.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Yeah, yeah, I mean it's none of that.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
That's our duvs. You know that don't you Jeffrey Dahmer fingerfoods. Okay,
we're done. Handle on the law tomorrow eight to eleven o'clock.
And a typical question I'll get is about a prenup
and or just custody of pets.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
I'm getting divorced from my wife. I'm getting divorce to
my husband. We have a dog. We're both fighting for it.
What do I do?
Speaker 4 (12:08):
Do I go for a custody battle, I go No,
you don't go for a custody battle. You're going for
an asset battle. Dogs are property.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
No they're not.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
They're members of the family, their property legally. And since
it's fifty to fifty in California, you get the two
of you get to decide which half of the dog
goes to whom. Pre nups well, divorce has been on
the rise for decades, and this is where it connects.
(12:38):
About forty percent of first marriages and in divorce forty percent.
That rate is even higher for second and third marriages.
So more Americans are getting married older, personal finances are
getting more complicated. Property is more of a concern, and
the rates of pre nups pre nuptial agreements are on
the rise, and the fun part of prenuptial agreements are
(13:02):
the pets. You know, custody is controlled by law. Property
is controlled by law. It's fifty to fifty with property assets,
with some exceptions, especially if you got the pet after
you're married.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Usually if you get the pet before you're married.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
It's usually the person that brings the pet to the
marriage or the relationship and they get to keep the pet. Also,
if you're talking about kids, usually the pet follows the kids.
But more and more people are putting pets in their agreements.
There was a couple interviewed by USA today and they
(13:39):
actually have a clause in their prenup in case they
get divorce, the pups go with mom since she owned them.
And as I said, that is typical. If not, if
they don't have a prenup, then the dog goes too.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Well do they flip a coin? Do they split the.
Speaker 4 (14:02):
Dog in half? Well, it's much like if you have silverware.
I mean two are having a fight. I'll take half,
you take half. It's that simple dining room table. I
mean you figure it out some way.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
But what is a dog worth?
Speaker 4 (14:21):
Now, unless it's a show dog that could be worth
thousands of dollars, then you just figure it out. On
the other side, Okay, I get a three thousand dollars dog,
you get three thousand dollars worth of assets. But what
if you picked the dog from a shelter, you know
what they're worth nothing. So that's just emotional that it's
that simple. So what's happening is more and more people
(14:46):
are getting into the what would prenups in general are
becoming more and more prevalent, and it makes sense. So
there is an organization called Hello Prenup. It's online and
it he'll couples in more than thirty states write their
prenups so you don't have to go to a lawyer.
It's much like these organization you write wills or trusts
(15:08):
or do your divorces.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
This one is about pre nups.
Speaker 4 (15:12):
And among prenup Hello Prenups clients, two thirds say they
have a pet at the time they're writing the prenup.
One third include the pet in the agreement. And here's
not only does the pet go to, but also we're
talking about who's going to make the medical decisions, who's
going to pay for vet bills, food insurance, daily expenses.
(15:35):
So what you do is it's not just silverware that
doesn't cost you. It's silverware that you have to buy
insurance for and upkeep and vets bills, and that can
get pretty expensive. I don't know how many of you
have dogs. I have a couple. It's ridiculous what they cost.
I mean, it's just insanity. So how do couples agree, Well,
(16:00):
you just yea, you have to. It's one of the
things that's probably the most difficult, and in many cases
it's more difficult than the custody of the kids. Because
as much as I hate or I like to say it,
how many relationships do you know of where the pets
are more important.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Than the kids?
Speaker 4 (16:19):
I know of one where it was stated outright the
pets are more important. So I like the idea of
splitting the dog. You get half, I get half. Of
course you have to go to a taxidermist and figure
that out and whatever.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
But by the way, this is no joke.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
As much as I'm having a good time with this,
this is a real legal issue, and I have seen
it over the years. There are court cases where everything
is figured out except the dog, and people will go
to trial and pay thousands and thousands of dollars for
a lawyer to argue that highly entertaining. This is why
(17:07):
lawyers charge six seven, eight hundred dollars an hour, and
when it comes to divorces, they don't get paid enough.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
People are at their very very worst.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
Perfectly nice, wonderful people are vipers when they're getting divorced. Okay, Oh,
by the way, do I let me do that one,
kfi ya, I'll do that real quick. KFI is sending

Speaker 4 (18:00):
Okay, now it is time as always on a Friday
or last segment, this week's World in Review, Living under.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
A rock Well here's what you've missed, piping hot off
the newswires from around the corner to around the world.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
This is this week's World in Review, and here we go.
A lot going on this week, as always.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
Let me start with a case that I didn't think
was going to be solved, the Johnny Walker murder charges.
If you remember three am, he goes out, sees few
people trying to steal his catalytic converter on his car.
He gets shot point blank. They didn't recognize the video
doesn't show any faces. Well, they got him. Two people
(18:51):
charged with it in Israel, and I generally go to
Israel because.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
There's always news.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
The bodies of six Israeli hostages were retrieved from Gaza
during a military operation in khan Unice, and the Israelis
are saying there's still one hundred and nine hostages.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
They don't know how many are alive.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
That's the problem, because what Hamas is doing is taking
dead hostages and keeping them and using them as negotiating chips.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
And that's tough. So we'll see what happens.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
And well, you've got Blincoln in for the ninth ceasefire talks.
US Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln ended his ninth visit
since the war began. No major breakthroughs at all for
a ceasefire. You've got the two sides on totally opposite.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Ends of the negotiating table. It doesn't look like right
now they're going to come to the table.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
And when we talk about US News, the DNC, this
it was a party basically, there were no political aspects
other than it was even minorly political, I think because
it was just.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
A party where Kamala Harris.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
In fact accepted the nominations or the nomination of the presidency.
It opened up Chicago Night one. It opened up on
Monday with President Biden delivering a speech talking about unity
within the party and passing the torch to Vice President
Kamala Harris.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
I did not think he was going to make.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
That speech, but it turned out that he was exhumed
and he was brought to the.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Stage and in fact made the speech. Night three was
a big night.
Speaker 4 (20:46):
Governor Tim Walls formally accepted the vice presidential nomination during
his address which was Wednesday, and it was of all
the people who are of the four people that are nominated,
the two for the presidency, Donald Trump and Kamala Harris
and the two for the vice presidency, JD Vance and
(21:10):
Tim Walls. I tell you the most likable one, the
most electable one, is Wallas. I mean he's about as
regular a guy as you could ever meet. I mean
I heard people talk they just want to hug him.
He's just this sweet man who is somehow able to
transcend into being a political figure without losing his warmth.
(21:34):
And in terms of likability, yeah, I at first I
really question Kamala Harris choosing him. It actually turns out
to be a pretty good choice.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
We'll see what happens.
Speaker 4 (21:48):
George Santos, remember he's never going to resign. He is
always going to defend himself. Former congressman pleaded guilty to
wire fraud aggravated identity theft. The guy was a liar
from beginning to end. He came in on a lie.
He was a congressman on a lie. He left on
a lie, and he got nailed. Well, he agreed because
(22:09):
they were he was looking at a trial he was
going to lose. Santo's has to repay three hundred and
seventy three thousand dollars. By the way, he's also a thief,
ripping off his own campaign personally, and he's looking at
six to eight ears in prison. On the internet front,
which I always love, Donald Trump shared several AI generated
(22:31):
images Taylor Swift endorsing him for president and reposting these
images with the caption I accept on truth social and
on a more personal note, something that I have been
involved with my entire legal practice, and that is reproductive law.
(22:51):
Fertility rates down again. Americans are not having kids. It
is that simple. And if IMG ration stops, which it
is going to stop, you are going to see the
birth rate in America the population drop precipitously because immigration
(23:12):
has been the force of even maintaining our population. That's it, guys,
We're done. Tomorrow morning six to eight am. It's Dean Sharp.
I'm here eight to eleven with a Handle on the
Law and as always my cheesy plug. If you are
injured in an accident, go to Handle on the Law
