You're listening to KFI AM six forty the Bill Handles
show on demand on the iHeartRadio app, and now.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Handle on the news. Ladies and gentlemen, here's Bill Handle.
Good morning everybody, Bill Handled.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Here. It is a Thursday morning, October twenty four, and
it's getting closer and closer.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
First of all, what the general election twelve days from now.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
And my daughter getting married a week from saturday? Ask
me how excited I am about that?
Speaker 3 (00:48):
How excited are you about that?
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Not very I was able.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
She's doing at the Anaheim White House, by the way,
of course, where I have it.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Yeah, of course, I mean where else would I do it?
Speaker 1 (00:57):
But Brunos Place, and I have asked for an early wedding.
So she's getting married sort of late afternoonish so I
can get to sleep, you know, get get into the sack.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
By nine o'clock like I normally do. Give me a break.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
What are you gonna do? Stay up just because your
daughter's getting married?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Please? Okay? With that?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
The hello start Amy, Yeah, you got have to move
the camera a little bit over because I could only
see your left arm.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
There a little bit the other way other way. There
you go.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
Hello, oh and there's your sweatshirt. Howdy awdy, howdy boy,
that's clever. Okay, let me say hello to one and all.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Well, first of all, Kno's back.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Yeah, yeah, Kono. We had Elmer here for a few days.
Como has returned. Cono has returned, and Cono, let me
put it this way, you are so lucky you have
a contract. There is no issue about that. Welcome back.
Think as always. Neil is still sick, he said us
(02:06):
a text that he will hopefully be back by tomorrow
to do foody Friday. And then of course Amy and
and also here, so life go ahead. I'm sorry, And
you were about to say he oh hi, okay, yeah,
now a couple things, okay, marriage, presidential election, Oh tomorrow.
(02:29):
It's the handle voter guide, but it really isn't the
voter guide because I do not guide you to vote.
I get very pissed off when anybody tells me how
to vote. And I mean, you can give me information,
you can certainly say these are the issues. I like
it with the negative ads because there's nothing like mud
(02:51):
slinging to really make an election interesting. So tomorrow at
seven thirty, I'm gonna go through the props and that's
basically it. As far as local elections, our listenership is
too broad in terms of geography, so I'm not going
to go through individual races.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
It's easy. As far as Steve Garvey and.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Adam shiff With the senatorial election, shift's going to win.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Thank you. We're done.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
And now the props are going to be kind of interesting,
and those I'm going to go through and try to
explain them a little bit, tell you why I'm voting
one way or the other.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
And the same rule applies.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
If anybody brings along my list as a guide to voting,
you are fired.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
As a KFI listener.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
You will not be able to listen to KFI again
if you ever use my guide as a guide. Okay,
fair enough. It's like my rules for Handle on the Law.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I don't know if you've ever listened to Handle on
the Law.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I have certain rules that apply in terms of who
I take as a caller. Number one, if someone is
completely unintelligible and you have no idea what language or
where they come from, that's near.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
The top of the heap. You get right on there.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
If someone is genuinely crazy, like speaking from a mental institution, boom,
you're right up there. If someone, for example, dealing with
an alien that has moved in next door and wants
to know what the legal issues are, how do I
deal with this bill?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
They're at the top of the heap.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Oh that double quadruple amputees always always good stuff.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
So those are rules. All right. With that being said,
I think we're ready to go with the news. Amy,
Are you paying attention? Yes, you're looking at a screen.
I know that and typing all right, No, Nember mine multitasking.
You are multitasking. You're actually very good at that.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Also, congratulations on that interview you did yesterday with Colonel Haig.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Thanks, that was one of the most fun things.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Yeah, a lot of good response, good response on that.
You know.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
One of the other questions, if you ask him again,
you know, it's a it's a closed environment up there
on the ISS. What if someone has a flatulence issue? Uh,
you know, they can't be the most popular person on
that SPA space station.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
You know, I was going to ask him about smells
on the space station precisely. Do they maybe I wouldn't
going to ask him about flatulence specifically, but do they
dissipate or do they just stay there because there's, like
you said, there's nowhere to go. Yeah, although they do
have systems because remember they he's talking about scrubbing.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
The you know, the general rule of a general rule
at KFI is never getting an elevator with handle.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
It's it's just not a good thing. Okay, are you
guys ready to do it? You bet?
Speaker 1 (05:49):
You handle on the news with Amy O'Neil today. He's
back tomorrow hopefully and me lead.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Sorry, all right.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Well, earlyvoting is hitting a whole lot of states. California
and nearly three million ballots have already been cast.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
It's a whole lot of votes.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
And you've got states like Georgia, North Carolina, Texas have broken.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Early turnout records.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
And I don't know what that means because whenever you
see minorities at these polling lines, at polling stations, you
immediately think Democrats. Whenever you see white sort of older
people or fifties or sixties, you think Republicans.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
And I don't know which way it's going to go.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
And whenever you see and it's always you can do
anything with video and stats.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
You go out and send a reporter.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
And there's a line of his Spanish or line of Democrats.
You know it's going to be a Democratic win. Same
thing on the other side. So don't even know what
early voting.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Means at this point. Who's going to be ahead. I
will tell you that Donald Trump is going to claim
victory the night of the election.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
That I guarantee you in Georgia, for example, or Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Do you know we're not gonna.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Even know, probably for a week, who won Pennsylvania. I mean,
I don't know if anybody's gonna call it the night
of the election, any news outlet, unless there is a
landslide one way or the other and it's I don't
think that's going to happen. Oh, and both sides are
preparing lawsuits.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
That's where we've come to, right.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Both sides are immediately arguing not necessarily rigged, although Republicans
are arguing that it's rigged per se, but preparing lawsuits
because election laws have changed since the pandemic.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Early voting.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
What is it one of the states a lawsuit is
already being prepared has to do with their Not only
does that have to be a signature on the envelope
for mail in votes, but there has to be a
date and an appropriate date, and if there isn't any boom,
it's to be tossed out. That's according to state law.
Lawsuits have hit saying that that is not a substantial issue,
(08:14):
that that's a minor problem, and therefore the vote should
go forward. That's just an one of the issues that
are up there that I'm going to share with you
that we're going to talk about over the next couple
of weeks.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Thirty five percent just doesn't cut it, at least according
to Boeing machinists. They have rejected Boeing's latest contract offer
to settle a six week long strike. Production is halted
at Boeing plants. They're not making their jets. The offer
was for a thirty five percent pay raise over four years.
(08:47):
Their initial offer was twenty five percent, so they up
that to thirty five percent. But apparently the big sticking
point now is that Boeing has offered to increase four
oh one K contributions and the union wants Boeing to
reinstate pensions.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Yeah or yeah, that's a big one.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
That is a big one, and that was somewhat of
an issue that we've had recently with iHeart about pensions.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Oh wait a minute, what pensions.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
They don't know how to spell pension here, and so
when you have a union based workforce, depending on the company,
it's even you know, it's amazing to me that they
gave up pensions years ago. I mean, when you talk
about Boeing or a corporation of that ILK giving up pensions. Man,
it's a whole new world. Used to be pensions were
(09:40):
automatic with big companies.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Working to keep weapons off Metro La Metro has put
in a new security system at Union Station. It's on
a test basis. It's concealed weapons technology and they say
that it will be testing an efficient on invasive screening
method to detect and identify hidden threats weapons without having
(10:05):
to have physical contact. And it will also remove the
need to you know, take personal belongings off and have
your bag search.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Yeah, I mean, I mean, the best way to get
on a subway and know that weapons are not a
problem is never to get on the subway.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
And that works for me.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Yeah, I'm not riding Metro anytime soon.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
No, I did it once, Oh I have you know
it first started. I remember going to Metro when it
just opened up. It was a homeless encampment. It was
a moving, homeless encamment, that's what it was. And now
they do now you die. But you know, versus not
a metro town.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
We're going to be. We're going to be.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I'll do a story a little bit later on seven
o'clock about Metro and connection with Lax.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Russia's getting a troop boost from a new ally. At
least three thousand North Korean soldiers have arrived in eastern Russia.
That's confirmed by the White House. They say this is
a highly concerning probability that they will join the fight
against Ukraine, although they're not actually in Ukraine yet, according
to any reports that the US has put out. The
(11:17):
US doesn't believe North Green troops have reached Ukraine, but
the movements have generated deep concern as a potentially serious
escalation in the conflict.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Yeah, and the world is moving further and further apart.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Now you have Russia connected with North Korea, and it's
the allies. You've got the Western world and Russian it's
just its pariah states are getting together. Look what Putin
is done to Russia, brought it from a country that
was part of the world community to not much anymore.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
I quit because you can't commit. The leader of the
La Times editorial board has resigned from her post in
protest after the newspaper's owner decided that the paper was
not going to endorse either Kamala Harris or Donald Trump
in the presidential election. They've endorsed every year since two
(12:14):
thousand and four, so this is, you know, twenty years
since they haven't done an endorsement. Mariogaza says she is
not okay with us being silent. She also said, hey,
you know what, we're a very liberal paper. I don't
think we're going to change the outcome of the election
in California. And she said she wants to make a stand.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Yeah, the Times pretty liberals. It's become pretty liberal. I
don't know if you have this information, because I didn't
look it up. Who did the Times endorse in the
last few presidentials they endorse?
Speaker 3 (12:45):
It was a moment in two thousand and eight.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Okay, did they endorse Hillary in twenty sixteen?
Speaker 4 (12:49):
You know, don't have that right here? Yeah, I don't know,
but I'm guessing we can look it up really quick.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
I'm guessing yes, Yeah, that's I'm guessing too. Because it
is considered a pretty liber rual newspaper.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
In full wars. Did they endorse Hillary?
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Probably not, probably not, so you know, And the owner
of the paper said, we've got actually Blake Trolly's on
the story today. The owner of the paper said he
gave the editorial board the opportunity to put together a
factual analysis of positive and negative policies and plans from
(13:28):
each of the candidates while they were in the White
House and how those policies affected the nation. And he
said the editorial board didn't say anything, They didn't do anything.
So he said, okay, fine, then we're not endorsing either, okay.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
And he's the one that calls the shots too. And
usually with the newspaper owners, there is when you look
at the.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
New York Times, for example, traditionally there's that firewall that
is not crossed. Editorial board is left alone. There's the
measure measure of independ is. I don't know how Patrick
soon Schong is the owner. I don't know how he
operates the paper.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
Aaran's been fishing around. Iranian government linked hackers have researched
and probed election related websites in several swing states in
the US, possibly to try to figure out what vulnerabilities
are that could be used to influence the presidential election.
That's according to Microsoft. It says the researching of election
(14:30):
related websites happened back in April, but was just recently
discovered by Microsoft. The hackers also were doing recon of
major US media outlets in May, according to Microsoft.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Yeah no, they're also saying that it really hasn't panned
out to where there is a concerted effort at this point.
They're just looking at their Microsoft saying they're simply doing
their how would you describe it, setting up up, looking
at what they can do, not actively engaging in interfering.
(15:04):
That's what we're hearing from Microsoft, unlike what's happened with
the Russians and the Chinese, who are actively involved in
interfering with the election.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
Walmart and a walk in oven have become a deadly combination.
A nineteen year old woman was found dead inside a
large walk in oven at a Walmart in Halifax, Nova Scotia,
Nova Scotia. She was found inside the bakery departments of
an on Saturday. The exact cause of her death is
(15:37):
still unknown, according to police.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Really, you know, when I read this story, I was
trying to figure out what comment could I make about
this without sounding like a complete a hole, and jerk
couldn't figure it out, So.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
I'm not going to make a comment on it. Okay,
all right, Yep, walk in and it's not a walk in.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
And I've never heard of a walk in oven. I've
heard of a walk in freezer. Freezer.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
But apparently for the these large scale bakeries and that
kind of stuff, they have huge, huge ovens that you
can walk into.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Yeah, but don't they have They're pretty full of racks
that are moving around, aren't they.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Whenever I've seen a story or a photo or video.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
You know you have, for example, bread baking or cookies
being made, these are rotating racks of those products within
the oven.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
So I don't understand how that works either.
Speaker 4 (16:36):
Musks million dollar giveaways maybe a bust.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
The Justice Department have sent a letter.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
To Elon Musk's America Pack saying that his one million
dollar a day sweep steaks to registered voters in swing
states may violate federal law. So Musk announced last Saturday
during a Trump Can payn event, he said, We're going
to be awarding a million dollars randomly to people who
have signed our petition every day from now until the election.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Yes, it's kind of a week.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
He's not asking for you to register. He is not
saying you must vote. He simply says, sign this petition
that says you believe in the Second Amendment and the
First Amendment period. But it's only in swing states, and
there is some and federal law does not allow anybody
to be paid or receive anything any benefit for registering
(17:33):
or voting. So it's this is why it may be illegal.
This is a case of first impression. It's never happened before,
and the Feds are sort of up in the air
about it. And yeah, I we'll see what happens. And
I don't even know how many of these petitions have
been signed at this point. We don't know is still
going on.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
I think so. And he's given away a million dollars
a day.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
I know he's given away one million dollars so far.
I haven't heard of anything beyond that.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
Supporting but scolding CENTI minority leader Mitch McConnell delivered a
scathing assessment of the modern Republican Party in an upcoming biography.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
He says the.
Speaker 4 (18:14):
MAGA movement, mega movement is completely wrong in that Ronald
Reagan wouldn't recognize the party today, and of course he
blames it on Trump. He said, the former president has
done a lot of damage to our party's image and
our ability to compete. In his upcoming biography, The Price
of Power, and apparently McConnell gave the guy who wrote
(18:35):
it access to his personal archives, including an oral history
he's been recording since nineteen ninety five for the book
Look at.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
The History of the republic Republican Party.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
It started as an abolitionist party, started as an anti
slavery party. Abraham Lincoln first Republican elected, and it was
based on anti slavery. Do you know in the last
forty years there were actual liberal Republicans.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
It's crazy. Can you imagine a liberal Republican today.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Ronald'reagan, when he was governor, signed the most far reaching
anti abortion bill in the country, even though he was
personally against abortion. He said, the people of California want this,
and I don't want to get in their way. Can
you imagine a Republican governor today signing a far reaching
(19:28):
abortion pro I'm sorry, pro abortion law, not anti abortion, Okay.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
It's just it's a different world we live in for sure.
All right, let's move on.
Speaker 4 (19:39):
Being a big fan is going to cost you. Tickets
for this year's World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers
and New York Yankees are said to be the most
expensive ever. We were talking about this earlier this week,
but the average ticket price is about seventeen hundred dollars.
And that's according to reseller tick pic. I think that
(20:00):
cheaper than some of the other sites that we've seen,
more than double the average of ticket prices for last
year's World Series.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Can you imagine if there's a Game seven, what those
tickets are going to be?
Speaker 2 (20:14):
How expensive? Those tickets are going to be?
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Stupid expensive? What did we say that?
Speaker 4 (20:19):
On the third base side tickets are going for forty
three thousand dollars?
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Come one, yeah, I mean please, You can buy half
of Pakistan for that much money.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
There are efforts being taken to prevent deep fakes from
getting into Yahoo News. The twenty twenty four presidential campaign
has featured some notable deep fakes, AI powered impersonations of
candidates that are, of course trying to mislead voters or
tear down the other candidates. One of those deep fakes
(20:54):
has been viewed more than one hundred and forty three
million times. So Yahoo News is trying to get help
from McAfee to stop this from happening.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Happening.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Yeah, we don't even know how to deal with this
stuff yet.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
We really don't because if you add this to the misinformation,
the disinformation that's going around. You know how many people
get their news now, not from us, not from news stations,
not from news outlets, but on the internet, especially young people,
and the deep fakes are part of the deep fakes,
(21:32):
the fake news. It's pretty depressing and it's a new world,
that's for sure. All Right, we can do one more
for we're taking a break.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Okay, Well, still on the technology front and how technology
is taking over, chat GPT can be tricked into providing
detailed advice on how to commit crimes everything from money
laundering to exporting weapons to sanctioned countries. Isn't that great news?
(22:02):
So just ask it how do I commit these crimes?
And chat GPT, I'll tell.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
You makes sense when you think about what jack chat
GPT can do and how it goes through the internet
everything on the Internet. Do you remember when Siri just
came out sirih just started and the first part of
it and I did this.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
I did this on the air.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Is hey, Siri, where's the best place for me to
hide a dead body? And Siri would come back, using
the GPS of the world and literally tell you where
the landfill the closest landfills were to where you are.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
That's so gross.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
It was. Oh they got rid of that feature pretty quickly,
but it was fun. Okay, So, Amy, we only have.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Three stories left, ok And we've gone through these stories
very very quickly, and so it's it's gonna be a
little difficult expanding them.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
So let's tell a joke or too. Okay, Okay, I'll start.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Okay, two jews walk into a bar and then they
buy it. Now, Amy, would you like you can either
tell a joke or we can do the next story
very very very slowly.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
I think we're probably gonna have to do both.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Okay, so let's do it.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
Horse walks into a bar and the bartender says, why
the long face?
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Okay, very strong. A guy walks into a bar with a.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Parrot on his shoulder and I don't know the rest
of that joke.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
Mushroom walks into a bar.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Right, because that's totally plausible.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
And the bartender says, hey, we don't serve your kind.
He goes, why not, I'm a fun guy.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Wow, all right, let's do some news and then we'll
go back to the jokes.
Speaker 4 (24:16):
Okay, not so funny. Roman Polanski's apparently off the hook.
A civil lawsuit brought against Polanski that alleged he sexually
assaulted a child in the nineteen seventies, a separate case
from his conviction tied to a thirteen year old girl,
is said to be dismissed. The suit accused Polanski of
giving a child alcohol and raping her at his home
(24:38):
in Benedict Canyon in nineteen seventy three. It was supposed
to go to trial next August, but now an unspecified
settlement agreement has been reached between the two sides.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
That's from the attorneys who are tied to this.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yeah, and he's never ever been in the United States
after he was charged.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
How old is he now?
Speaker 2 (24:55):
He has to be in his he's seventies.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
No, he's ninety one.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Seriously, my goodness, did he I think he directed Rosemary's Baby,
didn't he? And anyway, he was charged, went to Europe
and done. He's never never came in again, never come
to the United States. As far as the As far
as the criminal charges, I think the statute has long
(25:20):
run out, but civil charges can still be sued because
the legislature blew up the statute of limitations, so anybody
can sue for a period of time at any time.
And let's continue on. How do you spell Polonski?
Speaker 2 (25:38):
Never mind? Yeah, I know, I'm gonna make it. By
the way, we are going to make.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
It good news. Okay, well this is not good news.
It's the Philippines turn now. Of course, we got hit
in the US by Milton and Helene. Tropical Storm Trami
is hitting the northeastern Philippines. It has killed at least
twenty four people. Cars have been swept away. Authorities have
(26:04):
been prompted to scramble for motor boats to rescue trapped villagers,
some of them are stuck on their roofs. The government
had to shut down schools and offices except for disaster
response for the second day on the entire main island
of Luzon to protect millions of people. After the tropical
storm slammed into the northeastern province of Isabella after midnights.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Yeah, look at the level of storms that are going
on throughout the world, the level of flooding, the amount
of rain that's coming down when we report storms, it's
no longer by the inch, it's by the foot with
rain coming down. It's pretty scary stuff.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Climate change is here big time and coming up seven thirty,
I'm going to talk on a spin on climate change
that you probably didn't even know existed.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
That's it's seven thirty coming up.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Okay, so this is ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
Goldfish is changing its name two Orangefish new to Chilean
sea bass. The Pepperidge Farm snack brand is tweaking its
name for a limited time to Chilean sea bass. It
says it wants to attract a more grown up group.
The Campbell's company says it's part of a strategy to
(27:24):
attract adults and re establish Goldfish's relevance as a good
snack food among the declining snack food usage.
Speaker 1 (27:36):
Who walked into the CEO's office and came up with
that idea and was able to convince high management to
go with it, I don't know. I'll tell you it's
someone who is going to be fired in the next
six months a year.
Speaker 4 (27:52):
Except that it is a gimmick because it's only going
to be sold online.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Chilean sea bass goldfish crackers. I don't know how they're
going to connect. I really don't.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Also, I hate those goldfish. Are you a fan? I
just don't like them. I just you know, or for me?
Speaker 3 (28:12):
They're in our snap drawer, are they. Michelle keeps that
stock for.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
Us, and you don't pay for it?
Speaker 3 (28:20):
Well, yeah, yeah, you do. You put in money every
once in a while.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
You're on the honor system.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Oh my god, yes.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
I love the honor system.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
You know the box where you put the money in,
because I always take money out of the box whenever
I need, you know, a couple of dollars. All right, guys,
we are done. We're able to do it. We're able
to stretch.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
It out Amy with only minimal stupid jokes.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Yeah, very minimal, all right.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
KFI AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
You've been listening to the Bill Handle Show.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
Catch my Show Monday through Friday six am to nine am,
and anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
You're listening to KFI AM six forty the Bill Handles
show on demand on the iHeartRadio app, and now.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Handle on the news. Ladies and gentlemen, here's Bill Handle.
Good morning everybody, Bill Handled.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Here. It is a Thursday morning, October twenty four, and
it's getting closer and closer.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
First of all, what the general election twelve days from now.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
And my daughter getting married a week from saturday? Ask
me how excited I am about that?
Speaker 3 (00:48):
How excited are you about that?
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Not very I was able.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
She's doing at the Anaheim White House, by the way,
of course, where I have it.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Yeah, of course, I mean where else would I do it?
Speaker 1 (00:57):
But Brunos Place, and I have asked for an early wedding.
So she's getting married sort of late afternoonish so I
can get to sleep, you know, get get into the sack.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
By nine o'clock like I normally do. Give me a break.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
What are you gonna do? Stay up just because your
daughter's getting married?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Please? Okay? With that?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
The hello start Amy, Yeah, you got have to move
the camera a little bit over because I could only
see your left arm.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
There a little bit the other way other way. There
you go.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
Hello, oh and there's your sweatshirt. Howdy awdy, howdy boy,
that's clever. Okay, let me say hello to one and all.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Well, first of all, Kno's back.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Yeah, yeah, Kono. We had Elmer here for a few days.
Como has returned. Cono has returned, and Cono, let me
put it this way, you are so lucky you have
a contract. There is no issue about that. Welcome back.
Think as always. Neil is still sick, he said us
(02:06):
a text that he will hopefully be back by tomorrow
to do foody Friday. And then of course Amy and
and also here, so life go ahead. I'm sorry, And
you were about to say he oh hi, okay, yeah,
now a couple things, okay, marriage, presidential election, Oh tomorrow.
(02:29):
It's the handle voter guide, but it really isn't the
voter guide because I do not guide you to vote.
I get very pissed off when anybody tells me how
to vote. And I mean, you can give me information,
you can certainly say these are the issues. I like
it with the negative ads because there's nothing like mud
(02:51):
slinging to really make an election interesting. So tomorrow at
seven thirty, I'm gonna go through the props and that's
basically it. As far as local elections, our listenership is
too broad in terms of geography, so I'm not going
to go through individual races.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
It's easy. As far as Steve Garvey and.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Adam shiff With the senatorial election, shift's going to win.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Thank you. We're done.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
And now the props are going to be kind of interesting,
and those I'm going to go through and try to
explain them a little bit, tell you why I'm voting
one way or the other.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
And the same rule applies.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
If anybody brings along my list as a guide to voting,
you are fired.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
As a KFI listener.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
You will not be able to listen to KFI again
if you ever use my guide as a guide. Okay,
fair enough. It's like my rules for Handle on the Law.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I don't know if you've ever listened to Handle on
the Law.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I have certain rules that apply in terms of who
I take as a caller. Number one, if someone is
completely unintelligible and you have no idea what language or
where they come from, that's near.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
The top of the heap. You get right on there.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
If someone is genuinely crazy, like speaking from a mental institution, boom,
you're right up there. If someone, for example, dealing with
an alien that has moved in next door and wants
to know what the legal issues are, how do I
deal with this bill?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
They're at the top of the heap.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Oh that double quadruple amputees always always good stuff.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
So those are rules. All right. With that being said,
I think we're ready to go with the news. Amy,
Are you paying attention? Yes, you're looking at a screen.
I know that and typing all right, No, Nember mine multitasking.
You are multitasking. You're actually very good at that.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Also, congratulations on that interview you did yesterday with Colonel Haig.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Thanks, that was one of the most fun things.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Yeah, a lot of good response, good response on that.
You know.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
One of the other questions, if you ask him again,
you know, it's a it's a closed environment up there
on the ISS. What if someone has a flatulence issue? Uh,
you know, they can't be the most popular person on
that SPA space station.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
You know, I was going to ask him about smells
on the space station precisely. Do they maybe I wouldn't
going to ask him about flatulence specifically, but do they
dissipate or do they just stay there because there's, like
you said, there's nowhere to go. Yeah, although they do
have systems because remember they he's talking about scrubbing.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
The you know, the general rule of a general rule
at KFI is never getting an elevator with handle.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
It's it's just not a good thing. Okay, are you
guys ready to do it? You bet?
Speaker 1 (05:49):
You handle on the news with Amy O'Neil today. He's
back tomorrow hopefully and me lead.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Sorry, all right.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Well, earlyvoting is hitting a whole lot of states. California
and nearly three million ballots have already been cast.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
It's a whole lot of votes.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
And you've got states like Georgia, North Carolina, Texas have broken.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Early turnout records.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
And I don't know what that means because whenever you
see minorities at these polling lines, at polling stations, you
immediately think Democrats. Whenever you see white sort of older
people or fifties or sixties, you think Republicans.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
And I don't know which way it's going to go.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
And whenever you see and it's always you can do
anything with video and stats.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
You go out and send a reporter.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
And there's a line of his Spanish or line of Democrats.
You know it's going to be a Democratic win. Same
thing on the other side. So don't even know what
early voting.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Means at this point. Who's going to be ahead. I
will tell you that Donald Trump is going to claim
victory the night of the election.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
That I guarantee you in Georgia, for example, or Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Do you know we're not gonna.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Even know, probably for a week, who won Pennsylvania. I mean,
I don't know if anybody's gonna call it the night
of the election, any news outlet, unless there is a
landslide one way or the other and it's I don't
think that's going to happen. Oh, and both sides are
preparing lawsuits.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
That's where we've come to, right.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Both sides are immediately arguing not necessarily rigged, although Republicans
are arguing that it's rigged per se, but preparing lawsuits
because election laws have changed since the pandemic.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Early voting.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
What is it one of the states a lawsuit is
already being prepared has to do with their Not only
does that have to be a signature on the envelope
for mail in votes, but there has to be a
date and an appropriate date, and if there isn't any boom,
it's to be tossed out. That's according to state law.
Lawsuits have hit saying that that is not a substantial issue,
(08:14):
that that's a minor problem, and therefore the vote should
go forward. That's just an one of the issues that
are up there that I'm going to share with you
that we're going to talk about over the next couple
of weeks.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Thirty five percent just doesn't cut it, at least according
to Boeing machinists. They have rejected Boeing's latest contract offer
to settle a six week long strike. Production is halted
at Boeing plants. They're not making their jets. The offer
was for a thirty five percent pay raise over four years.
(08:47):
Their initial offer was twenty five percent, so they up
that to thirty five percent. But apparently the big sticking
point now is that Boeing has offered to increase four
oh one K contributions and the union wants Boeing to
reinstate pensions.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Yeah or yeah, that's a big one.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
That is a big one, and that was somewhat of
an issue that we've had recently with iHeart about pensions.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Oh wait a minute, what pensions.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
They don't know how to spell pension here, and so
when you have a union based workforce, depending on the company,
it's even you know, it's amazing to me that they
gave up pensions years ago. I mean, when you talk
about Boeing or a corporation of that ILK giving up pensions. Man,
it's a whole new world. Used to be pensions were
(09:40):
automatic with big companies.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Working to keep weapons off Metro La Metro has put
in a new security system at Union Station. It's on
a test basis. It's concealed weapons technology and they say
that it will be testing an efficient on invasive screening
method to detect and identify hidden threats weapons without having
(10:05):
to have physical contact. And it will also remove the
need to you know, take personal belongings off and have
your bag search.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Yeah, I mean, I mean, the best way to get
on a subway and know that weapons are not a
problem is never to get on the subway.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
And that works for me.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Yeah, I'm not riding Metro anytime soon.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
No, I did it once, Oh I have you know
it first started. I remember going to Metro when it
just opened up. It was a homeless encampment. It was
a moving, homeless encamment, that's what it was. And now
they do now you die. But you know, versus not
a metro town.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
We're going to be. We're going to be.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I'll do a story a little bit later on seven
o'clock about Metro and connection with Lax.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Russia's getting a troop boost from a new ally. At
least three thousand North Korean soldiers have arrived in eastern Russia.
That's confirmed by the White House. They say this is
a highly concerning probability that they will join the fight
against Ukraine, although they're not actually in Ukraine yet, according
to any reports that the US has put out. The
(11:17):
US doesn't believe North Green troops have reached Ukraine, but
the movements have generated deep concern as a potentially serious
escalation in the conflict.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Yeah, and the world is moving further and further apart.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Now you have Russia connected with North Korea, and it's
the allies. You've got the Western world and Russian it's
just its pariah states are getting together. Look what Putin
is done to Russia, brought it from a country that
was part of the world community to not much anymore.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
I quit because you can't commit. The leader of the
La Times editorial board has resigned from her post in
protest after the newspaper's owner decided that the paper was
not going to endorse either Kamala Harris or Donald Trump
in the presidential election. They've endorsed every year since two
(12:14):
thousand and four, so this is, you know, twenty years
since they haven't done an endorsement. Mariogaza says she is
not okay with us being silent. She also said, hey,
you know what, we're a very liberal paper. I don't
think we're going to change the outcome of the election
in California. And she said she wants to make a stand.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Yeah, the Times pretty liberals. It's become pretty liberal. I
don't know if you have this information, because I didn't
look it up. Who did the Times endorse in the
last few presidentials they endorse?
Speaker 3 (12:45):
It was a moment in two thousand and eight.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Okay, did they endorse Hillary in twenty sixteen?
Speaker 4 (12:49):
You know, don't have that right here? Yeah, I don't know,
but I'm guessing we can look it up really quick.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
I'm guessing yes, Yeah, that's I'm guessing too. Because it
is considered a pretty liber rual newspaper.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
In full wars. Did they endorse Hillary?
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Probably not, probably not, so you know, And the owner
of the paper said, we've got actually Blake Trolly's on
the story today. The owner of the paper said he
gave the editorial board the opportunity to put together a
factual analysis of positive and negative policies and plans from
(13:28):
each of the candidates while they were in the White
House and how those policies affected the nation. And he
said the editorial board didn't say anything, They didn't do anything.
So he said, okay, fine, then we're not endorsing either, okay.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
And he's the one that calls the shots too. And
usually with the newspaper owners, there is when you look
at the.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
New York Times, for example, traditionally there's that firewall that
is not crossed. Editorial board is left alone. There's the
measure measure of independ is. I don't know how Patrick
soon Schong is the owner. I don't know how he
operates the paper.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
Aaran's been fishing around. Iranian government linked hackers have researched
and probed election related websites in several swing states in
the US, possibly to try to figure out what vulnerabilities
are that could be used to influence the presidential election.
That's according to Microsoft. It says the researching of election
(14:30):
related websites happened back in April, but was just recently
discovered by Microsoft. The hackers also were doing recon of
major US media outlets in May, according to Microsoft.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Yeah no, they're also saying that it really hasn't panned
out to where there is a concerted effort at this point.
They're just looking at their Microsoft saying they're simply doing
their how would you describe it, setting up up, looking
at what they can do, not actively engaging in interfering.
(15:04):
That's what we're hearing from Microsoft, unlike what's happened with
the Russians and the Chinese, who are actively involved in
interfering with the election.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
Walmart and a walk in oven have become a deadly combination.
A nineteen year old woman was found dead inside a
large walk in oven at a Walmart in Halifax, Nova Scotia,
Nova Scotia. She was found inside the bakery departments of
an on Saturday. The exact cause of her death is
(15:37):
still unknown, according to police.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Really, you know, when I read this story, I was
trying to figure out what comment could I make about
this without sounding like a complete a hole, and jerk
couldn't figure it out, So.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
I'm not going to make a comment on it. Okay,
all right, Yep, walk in and it's not a walk in.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
And I've never heard of a walk in oven. I've
heard of a walk in freezer. Freezer.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
But apparently for the these large scale bakeries and that
kind of stuff, they have huge, huge ovens that you
can walk into.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Yeah, but don't they have They're pretty full of racks
that are moving around, aren't they.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Whenever I've seen a story or a photo or video.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
You know you have, for example, bread baking or cookies
being made, these are rotating racks of those products within
the oven.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
So I don't understand how that works either.
Speaker 4 (16:36):
Musks million dollar giveaways maybe a bust.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
The Justice Department have sent a letter.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
To Elon Musk's America Pack saying that his one million
dollar a day sweep steaks to registered voters in swing
states may violate federal law. So Musk announced last Saturday
during a Trump Can payn event, he said, We're going
to be awarding a million dollars randomly to people who
have signed our petition every day from now until the election.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Yes, it's kind of a week.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
He's not asking for you to register. He is not
saying you must vote. He simply says, sign this petition
that says you believe in the Second Amendment and the
First Amendment period. But it's only in swing states, and
there is some and federal law does not allow anybody
to be paid or receive anything any benefit for registering
(17:33):
or voting. So it's this is why it may be illegal.
This is a case of first impression. It's never happened before,
and the Feds are sort of up in the air
about it. And yeah, I we'll see what happens. And
I don't even know how many of these petitions have
been signed at this point. We don't know is still
going on.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
I think so. And he's given away a million dollars
a day.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
I know he's given away one million dollars so far.
I haven't heard of anything beyond that.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
Supporting but scolding CENTI minority leader Mitch McConnell delivered a
scathing assessment of the modern Republican Party in an upcoming biography.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
He says the.
Speaker 4 (18:14):
MAGA movement, mega movement is completely wrong in that Ronald
Reagan wouldn't recognize the party today, and of course he
blames it on Trump. He said, the former president has
done a lot of damage to our party's image and
our ability to compete. In his upcoming biography, The Price
of Power, and apparently McConnell gave the guy who wrote
(18:35):
it access to his personal archives, including an oral history
he's been recording since nineteen ninety five for the book
Look at.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
The History of the republic Republican Party.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
It started as an abolitionist party, started as an anti
slavery party. Abraham Lincoln first Republican elected, and it was
based on anti slavery. Do you know in the last
forty years there were actual liberal Republicans.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
It's crazy. Can you imagine a liberal Republican today.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Ronald'reagan, when he was governor, signed the most far reaching
anti abortion bill in the country, even though he was
personally against abortion. He said, the people of California want this,
and I don't want to get in their way. Can
you imagine a Republican governor today signing a far reaching
(19:28):
abortion pro I'm sorry, pro abortion law, not anti abortion, Okay.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
It's just it's a different world we live in for sure.
All right, let's move on.
Speaker 4 (19:39):
Being a big fan is going to cost you. Tickets
for this year's World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers
and New York Yankees are said to be the most
expensive ever. We were talking about this earlier this week,
but the average ticket price is about seventeen hundred dollars.
And that's according to reseller tick pic. I think that
(20:00):
cheaper than some of the other sites that we've seen,
more than double the average of ticket prices for last
year's World Series.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Can you imagine if there's a Game seven, what those
tickets are going to be?
Speaker 2 (20:14):
How expensive? Those tickets are going to be?
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Stupid expensive? What did we say that?
Speaker 4 (20:19):
On the third base side tickets are going for forty
three thousand dollars?
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Come one, yeah, I mean please, You can buy half
of Pakistan for that much money.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
There are efforts being taken to prevent deep fakes from
getting into Yahoo News. The twenty twenty four presidential campaign
has featured some notable deep fakes, AI powered impersonations of
candidates that are, of course trying to mislead voters or
tear down the other candidates. One of those deep fakes
(20:54):
has been viewed more than one hundred and forty three
million times. So Yahoo News is trying to get help
from McAfee to stop this from happening.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Happening.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Yeah, we don't even know how to deal with this
stuff yet.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
We really don't because if you add this to the misinformation,
the disinformation that's going around. You know how many people
get their news now, not from us, not from news stations,
not from news outlets, but on the internet, especially young people,
and the deep fakes are part of the deep fakes,
(21:32):
the fake news. It's pretty depressing and it's a new world,
that's for sure. All Right, we can do one more
for we're taking a break.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Okay, Well, still on the technology front and how technology
is taking over, chat GPT can be tricked into providing
detailed advice on how to commit crimes everything from money
laundering to exporting weapons to sanctioned countries. Isn't that great news?
(22:02):
So just ask it how do I commit these crimes?
And chat GPT, I'll tell.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
You makes sense when you think about what jack chat
GPT can do and how it goes through the internet
everything on the Internet. Do you remember when Siri just
came out sirih just started and the first part of
it and I did this.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
I did this on the air.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Is hey, Siri, where's the best place for me to
hide a dead body? And Siri would come back, using
the GPS of the world and literally tell you where
the landfill the closest landfills were to where you are.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
That's so gross.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
It was. Oh they got rid of that feature pretty quickly,
but it was fun. Okay, So, Amy, we only have.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Three stories left, ok And we've gone through these stories
very very quickly, and so it's it's gonna be a
little difficult expanding them.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
So let's tell a joke or too. Okay, Okay, I'll start.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Okay, two jews walk into a bar and then they
buy it. Now, Amy, would you like you can either
tell a joke or we can do the next story
very very very slowly.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
I think we're probably gonna have to do both.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Okay, so let's do it.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
Horse walks into a bar and the bartender says, why
the long face?
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Okay, very strong. A guy walks into a bar with a.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Parrot on his shoulder and I don't know the rest
of that joke.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
Mushroom walks into a bar.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Right, because that's totally plausible.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
And the bartender says, hey, we don't serve your kind.
He goes, why not, I'm a fun guy.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Wow, all right, let's do some news and then we'll
go back to the jokes.
Speaker 4 (24:16):
Okay, not so funny. Roman Polanski's apparently off the hook.
A civil lawsuit brought against Polanski that alleged he sexually
assaulted a child in the nineteen seventies, a separate case
from his conviction tied to a thirteen year old girl,
is said to be dismissed. The suit accused Polanski of
giving a child alcohol and raping her at his home
(24:38):
in Benedict Canyon in nineteen seventy three. It was supposed
to go to trial next August, but now an unspecified
settlement agreement has been reached between the two sides.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
That's from the attorneys who are tied to this.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yeah, and he's never ever been in the United States
after he was charged.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
How old is he now?
Speaker 2 (24:55):
He has to be in his he's seventies.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
No, he's ninety one.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Seriously, my goodness, did he I think he directed Rosemary's Baby,
didn't he? And anyway, he was charged, went to Europe
and done. He's never never came in again, never come
to the United States. As far as the As far
as the criminal charges, I think the statute has long
(25:20):
run out, but civil charges can still be sued because
the legislature blew up the statute of limitations, so anybody
can sue for a period of time at any time.
And let's continue on. How do you spell Polonski?
Speaker 2 (25:38):
Never mind? Yeah, I know, I'm gonna make it. By
the way, we are going to make.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
It good news. Okay, well this is not good news.
It's the Philippines turn now. Of course, we got hit
in the US by Milton and Helene. Tropical Storm Trami
is hitting the northeastern Philippines. It has killed at least
twenty four people. Cars have been swept away. Authorities have
(26:04):
been prompted to scramble for motor boats to rescue trapped villagers,
some of them are stuck on their roofs. The government
had to shut down schools and offices except for disaster
response for the second day on the entire main island
of Luzon to protect millions of people. After the tropical
storm slammed into the northeastern province of Isabella after midnights.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Yeah, look at the level of storms that are going
on throughout the world, the level of flooding, the amount
of rain that's coming down when we report storms, it's
no longer by the inch, it's by the foot with
rain coming down. It's pretty scary stuff.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Climate change is here big time and coming up seven thirty,
I'm going to talk on a spin on climate change
that you probably didn't even know existed.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
That's it's seven thirty coming up.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Okay, so this is ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
Goldfish is changing its name two Orangefish new to Chilean
sea bass. The Pepperidge Farm snack brand is tweaking its
name for a limited time to Chilean sea bass. It
says it wants to attract a more grown up group.
The Campbell's company says it's part of a strategy to
(27:24):
attract adults and re establish Goldfish's relevance as a good
snack food among the declining snack food usage.
Speaker 1 (27:36):
Who walked into the CEO's office and came up with
that idea and was able to convince high management to
go with it, I don't know. I'll tell you it's
someone who is going to be fired in the next
six months a year.
Speaker 4 (27:52):
Except that it is a gimmick because it's only going
to be sold online.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Chilean sea bass goldfish crackers. I don't know how they're
going to connect. I really don't.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Also, I hate those goldfish. Are you a fan? I
just don't like them. I just you know, or for me?
Speaker 3 (28:12):
They're in our snap drawer, are they. Michelle keeps that
stock for.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
Us, and you don't pay for it?
Speaker 3 (28:20):
Well, yeah, yeah, you do. You put in money every
once in a while.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
You're on the honor system.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
Oh my god, yes.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
I love the honor system.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
You know the box where you put the money in,
because I always take money out of the box whenever
I need, you know, a couple of dollars. All right, guys,
we are done. We're able to do it. We're able
to stretch.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
It out Amy with only minimal stupid jokes.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Yeah, very minimal, all right.
