Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from kf I
am six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Because you know, saying Mary Christmas is completely anti Semitic.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
You know that, don't you, Amy, No.
Speaker 4 (00:17):
It's not.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Yeah you do you hate Jews? No, I don't, Yeah
you do. Merry Christmas. Right there, You're done.
Speaker 4 (00:23):
I would say if it was a Jewish person, I
would say happy Honkah to them. That's what they celebrate. Right.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Have you ever said happy Honkah to me?
Speaker 4 (00:31):
I've never said Merry Christmas to you.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
That works, all right, Let's move on, Okay, I just.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Wanted to I started on a happy note.

Yeah you do.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Happy holidays, yep. And now Handle on the news ladies
and gentlemen. Here's Bill Handle and good morning everybody, Bill
Handle and the Morning crew.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
On a Tuesday morning, December eighteenth, It's a tech Tuesday,
which means rich to morrow joins us and we are
not well.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
I'm not here on at next Tuesday. I'm here Monday.
Let me use that. Okay, here we go, I'll get there.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
I'm not here next Tuesday until the first of the year,
and so next Monday is going to be my last
day and then Christmas. Evan Honika falls on the same
day this year, not necessarily because the Jewish calendar.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Is a little bit older than the Christian calendar.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
The Jewish calendar goes back six thousand years, and it's
not the same. Different names, different holidays, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Just different everything.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
All right, So, Neil, are you you're working on next Monday? No?
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Oh, you're off Monday completely. Yeah. Your last day is
this Friday.
Speaker 5 (01:56):
Yes, sir, I mean I'll do Saturday's show.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
But okay, fair enough, Amy, not here Monday, Okay, not
here Monday either. I'm gonna be by myself on Monday.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
And you're here.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
Money, I'll be here.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
I understand. I know you'll be here, but you're you're
below the line. Even though you're above the line, you're
straddle the line. It's she straddles the line and conore.
You're here, right, I'll be here, yeah, because you don't
go home? Uh what over the holidays?
Speaker 3 (02:32):
How much time do you have off?
Speaker 5 (02:34):
Two days?
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Okay? You know how well you been here?
Speaker 2 (02:38):
You think by now you would have enough pull that
you can get about. Oh, it's about pull, trust, yesse
poise nobody.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
That's true. It's it's it's a food chain. Issue.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
You know you're right because every other show has in
turn and assistant producers and hot and cold running people
in and out of the studio. And here we are
Morning Drive ostensibly the most important show on the station,
not necessarily because we are the most important show on
the station. This day part is considered the most important,
(03:17):
not so much anymore. And we can't get people to work.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
On the show.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
You don't need it, sir, What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (03:24):
I don't need it?
Speaker 5 (03:25):
You have the best team with you, and they're.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Talking about producers. We have Anne.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
You've got Anne, and.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
The show is Anne.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
This show is by far the hardest show to produce.
Why because I am by far the lady laziest host
on the stage.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
You are.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
We all have peas dispensers filled with michtyl. We just
throw them at you.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
That's true. I just love that an excuse for not
coming in. I don't like getting up in the morning.
Like when did that become a good one? Because it's
a thing. It's a millennial. It's an essage.
Speaker 5 (04:02):
And it's not a millennial thing because I am.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Yeah you are, but it really is a millennial. It's
across the board.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I think the last group of people ever who said,
oh I got to wake up and it doesn't matter
what time.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
Are are baby boomers? I think nobody else. We're done.
We're done. So when I went into Morning.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Drive, I was so excited, so excited to start the show.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
In the morning. This is true?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Is this how much I loved loved I mean, now
I like doing the show and really like it, so
please don't misunderstand. But when I started this program, this show,
I would wake up in the morning and I was
so excited. It was like going to Disneyland for the
first time. And at the end of the show, I
(04:49):
would go into a depression because I had to wait
another day.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Before I could start broadcasting again.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
And that's starting at five o'clock in the morning, not
at six o'clock in the morning. So we can't get
people to be that excited anymore. It's just yeah, well,
can you say, all right, guys, enough of Inside Baseball.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Oh, yesterday, by the.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Way, what was that ball that went for four point
three million dollars?
Speaker 3 (05:19):
I mean it's insanity now.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
The baseball. Yeah, so that was show. Hey, Otani's no
fifty to fifty ball that went from four point four
But then then Freddy Freeman's just sold at auction for
one point five to six.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
You know, let me ask you something.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Now, I can see that with a Babe Ruth signed
baseball that was used in some playoff game, massive game
in nineteen twenty seven. And there's four of those that
exist in all of baseball, signed Babe Ruth walls that
I can see.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
But you know this one? Oh they oh it was
hit yesterday. Let's go for five million dollars, no show.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
Hey, Otani was the first major league player every hit
fifty home runs, all fifty bases.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Yes, okay, all right, let's compare that. Okay, let's compare that.
I remember Maury Wills in the old days.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
This is what I knew the Dodgers nineteen fifties, nineteen sixties,
the days of Don Drysdale and Sandy Cofax, and the
shortstop was Warri Wills.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
One season, one hundred and two stolen bases.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
How many home runs?
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Well, here's the shortstop and he was really short. He
was like three foot eight, so he was impossible to catch.
I don't know, but not many, not many. I'm not
arguing that it's not a big deal, but it used
to be Remember when twenty thirty dollars, twenty thirty million
dollars would buy you the most expensive Rembrandt Picasso that existed.
(06:47):
Now they break one hundred and thirty million, one hundred
and forty million dollars regularly.
Speaker 5 (06:53):
The latest baseball signing was eight hundred million.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
No, I understand that this guy, he's gotten crazy. It
really has. I mean not in a bad way.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I mean, if they can you know, if they can
justify it, I mean there's no issue. I mean, welcome
to the world of capitalism and paying show.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Hey a Tani.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Those insane numbers actually may play out, may pay out too. So.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
But now, as Cono pointed out, it's got gotten higher.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
What would that last a year?
Speaker 3 (07:20):
No?
Speaker 2 (07:21):
No, No, seven. It was seven hundred million over ten years.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Yeah, but now now Wan Soto has one for seven
sixty five.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
It's just eight d I know, what do you do
with that?
Speaker 5 (07:31):
I mean that didn't even live live like a year.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Before someone You know, it's just it's kind of insane,
it really is. I agree.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
And how do you play next to a guy who
makes twenty five times.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
As much as you do? Oh? We do?
Speaker 5 (07:44):
Okay? Here you work?
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Yeah, those are the figures here?
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Now you really you just get together, have drinks, talk
crap about you, I mean the person and you know
the player.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
All right, let's go. I think we do one story
before the break.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Here we go handle on the news with Amy King,
Neil Sevadra and me lead story Troubled Soul and it
was the Madison school shooting yesterday. A substitute teacher and
a student dead. The shooter dead, fifteen year old student
at the school self inflicted gunshot wound.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
They always, unfortunately, kill themselves after end of the girl
and a girl very unusual at seven o'clock. I have
some thoughts on all this. This is not going to
be my normal. We need gun control. That ship has sailed.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
But I when the shooting took place, I sat down
and really started thinking about what's going on. And I'd
like to share that with you. And that's coming up
at seven o'clock.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
No dice. A judge has rejected President elect Trump's argument
that the recent Supreme Court ruling that basically protects him
from or gives him immunity has his criminal case in
New York. So that means that the hush money case
conviction is in place. And then Trump immediately, of course
(09:10):
when you heard the decision said yeah, we're going to
fight that.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Of course it's going to fight that. And here's what
the decision stands on. The Supreme Court has ruled that
a president is immune for any issue he does in
a presidential or for a presidential race, particularly I no
a sitting president. Now, this was payment of hush money
(09:36):
to a porn star to not go forward with here
I have I've screwed Donald Trump, and it was to
not have that go public prior to the election because
it would have or may have interfered with the election.
He is going to argue that that is part of
what he did as president and part of his presidential immunity.
(09:59):
And the art argument on the other side is granted
as president in terms of the national interest. Paying money
to a porn star, that's part of national national usage
or part of a national activity. Come on, guys, And
that's what the judge said, basically, uh uh, this doesn't know.
(10:22):
There are certain things that a president cannot do and
will be held liable for, for example, shooting someone in
broad daylight on Broadway and killing them, and that would
be by the way, of course, I'm exaggerating here, but
I'm taking words from President Trump, and he would have
been it didn't matter for his electorate.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
But anyway, that's it. That's what the whole thing is
based on.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
All right, Bye to this fellaw. So you have a
top Russian general accused of using chemical weapons on the
battlefield in Ukraine. Apparently was killed after a bomb went
off in Moscow early this morning. Russian investigators said, this
is Lieutenant Igor Igor Krilla loof.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
Really lof, really really love.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Yeah Kriloff translated into dead person, I think yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
So he headed Russia's Radiological, Biological and Chemical Protection Forces
Protection Force, but was killed by.
Speaker 5 (11:30):
A remotely detonated bomb, so.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Which no one is really upset about, except of course Russia.
Speaker 5 (11:37):
And it seems that Kiev has said, yeah, that was us.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
Liar, liar, pants on fire. A former FBI informant has
pleaded guilty to lying about a bribery scheme involving President
Biden and his son Hunter became a central figure, or
a central theme in Republican efforts to launched an impeachment
inquiry in Congress. So Alexander Smirnoff in La pleaded guilty
(12:06):
to a felony charge, and he had told his FBI
handler that executives from the Ukrainian energy company Barisma had
paid President Biden and Hunter Biden five million dollars each
around to twenty fifteen.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Do you remember that story. It was huge and it
was predicated.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
It turned out on this informant, the entire story, and
I heard it over and over again, the five million
dollar bribe, the five million dollar bribe, and it became.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
A huge issue.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Well, it turned out that, as you said that the
information came from one person, he'd just been convicted of
lying about it. By the way, I've reached out to
a few of people, I argued with complete deflection, complete deflection.
Speaker 5 (12:55):
Do we know what his motive was?
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Yeah, to get to get Trump elected? What else? I'm
not even gonna say got paid off. I'm not gonna
say you got paid off. We have no idea. I'm guessing,
oh maybe it was money. I have no idea, but
it was lying.
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Oh no, that allegation is simply not true. And so
the people I've reached out to, well, let's go to
the next allegation, which is true. And when that is debunked, well,
let's go to the next allegation, which.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Is true, and unfortunately, once it's out there, people who
want to believe it believe it.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Yeah, that's true, that's true, all right.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
The ex wife of a doctor who was fatally shot
outside his medical clinic in Woodland Hills, that was a
big story as well. Now she was charged with murder
just yesterday, the district attorney, alleging she hired a hit
man to kill the victim for unspecified financial gain.
Speaker 5 (13:53):
Isn't that always the case?
Speaker 3 (13:55):
No, Sometimes you just hate your spouse. Oh yeah, Sometimes
you're get along. I can see it. Sometimes your spouse
rolls his or her eyes and you can see it.
Speaker 5 (14:06):
I can You're still walking.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Yeah, that's a shocker, you telling.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
Well, you're soon going to be able to get more
than candy and soda at your vending machines. Dallas based
startup called American Rounds has rolled out its first automated
retail ammunition machine. You can find it in the Fresh
Value grocery store in Pell's City, Alabama. It's got rifle,
shotgun and handgun ammunition. The company says it's safer and
(14:38):
more convenient to buy ammo at its vending machines than
at a large retailer store or online. Actually, the ammunition
kiosks are now open in nearly a dozen grocery stores
across Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama, and Colorado.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Now I can see more convenient.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
I buy that argument safer, I don't know, and it
doesn't say what the safety factors are.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Well, what they don't tell you in the story is
the kiosk is one of those claws you have to
reach in and grab the ammunition with.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
No, there's no guarantee that you actually get it.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Yes, so if you have dexterity and control, I mean,
you're getting it in the hands of somebody that can,
you know, shoot properly. Can you imagine imagine what foreigners
are thinking about America.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
They already think we're No, you.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Mean the foreigners from you know, Asian countries that have
soiled underwear.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Yeah, exactly. I believe soiled underwear. That it's hard to
kill people with soiled underwear, depending on how soil was
that Japan, Japan, that was Japanese coming up at seven o'clock.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
It's part of my musing with all of this.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
It's just this really got me thinking, this shooting and well,
this story is so insane, so we can move on.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
You know, we see what we want to see in life.
And this is really really sad. You heard the story
about a vehicle that the license plate looked like it
said lol oct seven, you know, laughing at laugh out
loud at October seventh, and there was all this hubbub
about it. Well, it turns out that it is on
(16:18):
a cyber truck and it's not laugh out loud. It's
Lolo CT seven. Lolo is grandpa. What is that in Filipino?
Speaker 4 (16:30):
And yeah Tagolic?
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Yeah, tagolic? Which are the girl Scout cookies that are
very very good?
Speaker 4 (16:35):
Those are tag along?
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Okay, I get this, always confused.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
And so it's it's grandfather CT for cyber truck, and
I guess he has seven grandkids.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Yeah that's true. I mean it makes sense. But how
about this.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
It can be interpreted that way and the DMV can
shut it down if it can be interpreted not even
it it's the only interpretation.
Speaker 5 (17:00):
Get that. But it's the fact that we see that first, right.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
And it doesn't even matter.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
I mean, people who are Filipino will see that as
grandfather seven, and then the rest of us look at
it and see wait a second, this is a statement
in October seventh, and it's pro terrorist. So that's the
way too many people would interpret it. So the DMV
shut it down. Now he can appeal it, and he will.
(17:30):
And the worst that happens is they yank the plate,
which is at.
Speaker 5 (17:34):
This point I would want another plate in personally.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
You would think so, wouldn't you. First of all, you
want another plate even when you're driving a cyber truck.
They are so hideously ugly. However, I know three people
who do own cyber trucks that swear by them. They
say it's the best damn thing they've ever driven.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Well, thankfully, his birthday is on September eleventh, so I
think he's going to change it to.
Speaker 4 (17:57):
Good point, just in time for Christis. Another group of
Amazon workers has voted in Illinois to authorize a strike.
It's the third one to do so in less than
a week. Teamsters officials said that workers at the Amazon
delivery station in Skokie, Illinois, voted overwhelmingly in favor of
(18:20):
authorizing the strike. That joins workers on New York City's
Staten Island and also workers in Queens who have voted
to authorize a strike if they don't get a deal.
The union had given Amazon December fifteenth deadline to agree
to come to the table and bargain, but obviously that
has passed.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
So you have I don't know how many Amazon warehouses
are in fact unionized, but obviously three of them have
authorized strikes the unions and are they going to become
more and more I guess popular among workers.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
You know, the tougher it.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
Is to work there, the more apt the workers tend
to unionize.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
So we'll see where that goes.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Also, people you've got you prospective union workers who are
working at their and they try to form a union.
They do it on Amazon grounds and under the National
Labor Relations laws can't be stopped. Makes it very easy
to form a union. And the only thing that stops
(19:25):
unions from being formed are the companies saying we do
better than the unions. You don't want to unionize because
your benefits, working conditions, pay is far better than what
would be negotiated. Well that's usually not the case.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Yeah, then why would you argue if you're going to
benefit by them being.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Well, sometimes it's a company.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Now, sometimes they don't quite do what they say they're
going to do. Just a story about you've got Amazon
workers and it's getting very tough because of product vity
and more and more injuries because they are speeding up,
especially during the holidays. Man, the number of boxes you
have to throw on those conveyor belts and the number
(20:10):
of boxes you pack, that's still human beings that take,
you know, the boxes of goods and put them into
the boxes for shipping.
Speaker 5 (20:19):
That explains the extra severed hand. I got one, yes,
my prime, that's true, all right.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Speaking of things traveling that shouldn't remember, Setlana Dolly. She
was the permanent US resident, but she's a Russian national
and she was the one that stowed away I think
going to Paris or something New York to Paris a
month or so ago. Well, she's been taken into custody again,
(20:47):
this time trying to sneak into Canada. She managed to
cut off her ankle monitor on Sunday that she was
wearing for the first crime and tried to, you know,
go to Canada.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Yeah, she got all pissed off on a previous flight
when they wouldn't let her bring her Lama aboard as
a service animal.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
Dully really, Yeah, her set of paints and her funny mustache.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, pretty much. That's a stretch. I understand
how stupid that is, but I don't know that you do,
you know, I think I do.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
I don't know how many I'm actually allowed during the
course of the show, but I usually exceed that number.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
That one counted for at least a dozen.
Speaker 4 (21:33):
Okay, speaking of a stretch, I got to get to
Europe if this is true. Fox News host Ainsley Earhart
is suggesting that pasta and pizza in Europe are lower
in calories than in the US. She said, when they
go to Europe, they don't gain any weight when they
pasta and pizza because they don't have pesticides in their
(21:55):
food like we do.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Oh yeahsta without pestae eyes.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Come on and Neil, you can comment on.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
That, yeah, and you tell scientific now they're thinner. Europeans
are thinner than Americans because they don't eat processed foods
the way we do, and they just don't overeat the
way we do.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Yes, but our pasta and our are does are similar
depending on where you go.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
A point. I want to make our side. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Part of our FK's Make America Healthy Again Agency would
eliminate pesticides in agriculture, and promote organic food in school lunches.
I want to make a point about organic food, pesticides,
and industrial farming that people say is horrible. If we
didn't have that, the world would starve. The only way
(22:55):
you can feed the number of people that are fed
both than this country and the number of people that
are fed with agricultural exports is because of pesticides, because
of an industrial fertilization, and because of industrial farming. Farmers,
the little farmers who plant thirty acres cannot compete, and
(23:19):
the prices that we pay for food, which among the
lowest in the world, simply wouldn't happen. So that's the
other side of industrialization. We won't eat the way we eat.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
It's that simple. You think inflation is bad now.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
For the cost of eggs, the cost of flour, the
cost of bread, it wouldn't come close to what it
doesn't come close to what it would be if you
didn't have industrial farming and pesticides.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
The reality is if there were pesticides and things that
made you absorb fat more or something like that, it's
about calories, period, calories in calories out right, it doesn't
change with pasta there or pasta here.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
And how and by the way, you know how tasty
worms are in apples.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
People don't realize that protein level very high.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
All right, all right, TikTok asked Scotis to block potential
US ban. Of course, this has been going back and forth.
The popular app here in the United States is looking
at the possibility of being banned unless its parent company
agrees to sell it by next month. So they're looking
for more time, create some breathing room to kind of.
Speaker 5 (24:35):
Figure out what to do. And we shall see.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Yeah. Now, White Dance is arguing First Amendment that.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
They have a right to keep the platform going on
a Chinese company. There are a few American companies that
are banned in China. And how do you think their
lawsuits are going against the Chinese government?
Speaker 3 (24:58):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Yeah, we you know, we're treated way all the time.
You try and you try and become an illegal alien
to other countries, even Mexico, and they're like, oh no,
you can't own property here, you can't do anything like that.
Speaker 5 (25:11):
You know.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Some of the racist people in the world are Mexican
as to Guatemalans.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
They hate Guatemalans.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Oh, there's not only that, but light skinned Mexicans versus
dark skinned Mexicans.
Speaker 5 (25:23):
All of that.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
There's racism and shades of racism in every culture.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
The Japanese are among the most racist people on the planet.
Speaker 5 (25:34):
Really.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
There was a lawyer that I worked with many many
years ago who was of Japanese descent, like third generation,
did not speak one word of Japanese. His girlfriend was
getting a master's in Japanese studies and she was dead
ass fluent in Japanese. So they both went to Japan
and they're walking down the street and more than once,
(25:56):
literally they were stopped and in Japanese, he was asked,
or he was yeah, he was asked, what are you
doing with this Guanjin, this barbarian, this subhuman person? And
she would say, you know, he doesn't speak any Japanese.
I just want to tell you that, and doesn't understand
(26:16):
a word you say in absolute, perfect, perfect Japanese.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
It would have been funny if she said, how dare
you say that about my husband?
Speaker 5 (26:27):
So, yeah, people like their own tribe in life.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
Unfortunately, there is not much wokeness Europe. There's a lot
of wokeness.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Okay, next story, Well, the biggest ice cube on Earth
is on the move. It's actually an iceberg. It's slightly
bigger than Rhode Island. This iceberg is moving through the
Southern Ocean. Apparently it had gotten stuck. It was just
sort of spinning in the same spot. But now it's
on the move again. It broke off or calved from
(27:01):
the Filchner Ronnie ice Shelf back in nineteen eighty six.
And now that it's broken free, scientists they they think
it's gonna keep drifting along ocean currents and head toward
warmer water and eventually we'll just break up and melt.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
That's lovely, boy, that'll certainly help ocean rising. Notice it's
cleverly named a twenty three A, not the Big Iceberg,
not any name that makes sense, like the Ross ice
Shelf or the fish Filter Roane ice shelf. No, No,
it's a twenty three A because that's a name that
(27:36):
just rolls off the tongue.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Doesn't it Wait a second? So if it breaks off
and it's in the ocean.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
It's already broken off.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
I know.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
But if I'm saying that an iceberg melts, that becomes
an iceberg, it breaks off. The mass is the mass
is the mass? How would it make them rise.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Because it makes the ocean rise.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Because you have a bunch of mouge ice cube, but
it's on is water. There is more liquid water, uh
and less ice, and that does make the water water.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
Changed its form.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
But if I put eight ice cubes and they melt,
it's not gonna make it overflow in my glass, is
what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
But there will be more liquid than ice. It's not
the same level.
Speaker 5 (28:19):
But if it's floating in the ocean, I mean if.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Then the oceans rise, there's enough. There's enough there neil
to make the oceans rise.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
I put more water.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Eight ounces of water and two ounces of ice. Yeah,
it's not gonna make more than six ounces of water.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
It does. It rises. The water rises.
Speaker 5 (28:43):
Are the dumbest man.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
And would you look that up or amy? Does water
rise when ice melts?
Speaker 5 (28:49):
Mass?
Speaker 3 (28:50):
Would you would? Would water rise when ice melts?
Speaker 4 (28:54):
Well, doesn't the iceberg displace the water?
Speaker 3 (28:57):
That's when it rises. Water displaces, But the water rises.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
If you are a ten pound ice cube and you
become ten pounds of water, Yeah, okay, do this take now,
if it's on land, and if take.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
Take it, take a rubber, take a rubber duck.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Take a rubber duck in a bathtub, okay, and it's
half full, and put in a huge chunk of ice
in there, and as it melts, the duck will rise.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
By the way, that's a religious concept. The duck has risen.
Speaker 4 (29:30):
Uck you duck, duck.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
NASA actually wrote an article about this. This is melting
ice in the ocean effects sea level unlike ice cubes
and a glass.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
How oh stop it. I want to know.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I think we have a couple more floating iceberg That
doesn't make sense now an iceberg on or not an iceberg?
Speaker 5 (29:57):
But well I guess on land.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
Well, those are not icebergs.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
Once it breaks off, I think that's when it affects.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
It does when it goes into the ocean. Sea level rises.
Speaker 5 (30:10):
Once it breaks off. Now it's just ice in the glass.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
That's correct. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Did NASA just say unlike ice in the glass, melting icebergs.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Rye make the water rise. But I get that correctly.
There's also a difference between fresh water is less dense
than salt water. Okay, Well, there you are.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
And there's also a difference between on this show, handle
is less dense than Neil.
Speaker 5 (30:42):
Oh, you're still dense, all right.
Speaker 4 (30:46):
This article melting ice in fresh water, no sea level rise,
melting ice in seawater sea level rises.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
Okay, well, I guess we go halfway on that, Neil. Okay,
I'm showing you. Let's kiss, let's not. We're halfway there.
All right, We're done, guys, that's the news. Great arguing
about ice in glasses. Okay, we're done, guys.
Speaker 5 (31:13):
Heating edge programming.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Yeah, oh, it's this is why we can't get an
assistant producer or any intern working on this show.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
The next segment, we're actually gonna white watch ice melt.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
This is KFI AM six. You've been listening to the
Bill Handle Show.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
Catch my Show Monday through Friday, six am to nine am,
and anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from kf I
am six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Because you know, saying Mary Christmas is completely anti Semitic.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
You know that, don't you, Amy, No.
Speaker 4 (00:17):
It's not.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Yeah you do you hate Jews? No, I don't, Yeah
you do. Merry Christmas. Right there, You're done.
Speaker 4 (00:23):
I would say if it was a Jewish person, I
would say happy Honkah to them. That's what they celebrate. Right.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Have you ever said happy Honkah to me?
Speaker 4 (00:31):
I've never said Merry Christmas to you.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
That works, all right, Let's move on, Okay, I just.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Wanted to I started on a happy note.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
Yeah you do.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Happy holidays, yep. And now Handle on the news ladies
and gentlemen. Here's Bill Handle and good morning everybody, Bill
Handle and the Morning crew.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
On a Tuesday morning, December eighteenth, It's a tech Tuesday,
which means rich to morrow joins us and we are
not well.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
I'm not here on at next Tuesday. I'm here Monday.
Let me use that. Okay, here we go, I'll get there.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
I'm not here next Tuesday until the first of the year,
and so next Monday is going to be my last
day and then Christmas. Evan Honika falls on the same
day this year, not necessarily because the Jewish calendar.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Is a little bit older than the Christian calendar.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
The Jewish calendar goes back six thousand years, and it's
not the same. Different names, different holidays, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Just different everything.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
All right, So, Neil, are you you're working on next Monday? No?
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Oh, you're off Monday completely. Yeah. Your last day is
this Friday.
Speaker 5 (01:56):
Yes, sir, I mean I'll do Saturday's show.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
But okay, fair enough, Amy, not here Monday, Okay, not
here Monday either. I'm gonna be by myself on Monday.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
And you're here.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
Money, I'll be here.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
I understand. I know you'll be here, but you're you're
below the line. Even though you're above the line, you're
straddle the line. It's she straddles the line and conore.
You're here, right, I'll be here, yeah, because you don't
go home? Uh what over the holidays?
Speaker 3 (02:32):
How much time do you have off?
Speaker 5 (02:34):
Two days?
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Okay? You know how well you been here?
Speaker 2 (02:38):
You think by now you would have enough pull that
you can get about. Oh, it's about pull, trust, yesse
poise nobody.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
That's true. It's it's it's a food chain. Issue.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
You know you're right because every other show has in
turn and assistant producers and hot and cold running people
in and out of the studio. And here we are
Morning Drive ostensibly the most important show on the station,
not necessarily because we are the most important show on
the station. This day part is considered the most important,
(03:17):
not so much anymore. And we can't get people to work.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
On the show.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
You don't need it, sir, What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (03:24):
I don't need it?
Speaker 5 (03:25):
You have the best team with you, and they're.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Talking about producers. We have Anne.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
You've got Anne, and.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
The show is Anne.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
This show is by far the hardest show to produce.
Why because I am by far the lady laziest host
on the stage.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
You are.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
We all have peas dispensers filled with michtyl. We just
throw them at you.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
That's true. I just love that an excuse for not
coming in. I don't like getting up in the morning.
Like when did that become a good one? Because it's
a thing. It's a millennial. It's an essage.
Speaker 5 (04:02):
And it's not a millennial thing because I am.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Yeah you are, but it really is a millennial. It's
across the board.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I think the last group of people ever who said,
oh I got to wake up and it doesn't matter
what time.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
Are are baby boomers? I think nobody else. We're done.
We're done. So when I went into Morning.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Drive, I was so excited, so excited to start the show.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
In the morning. This is true?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Is this how much I loved loved I mean, now
I like doing the show and really like it, so
please don't misunderstand. But when I started this program, this show,
I would wake up in the morning and I was
so excited. It was like going to Disneyland for the
first time. And at the end of the show, I
(04:49):
would go into a depression because I had to wait
another day.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Before I could start broadcasting again.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
And that's starting at five o'clock in the morning, not
at six o'clock in the morning. So we can't get
people to be that excited anymore. It's just yeah, well,
can you say, all right, guys, enough of Inside Baseball.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Oh, yesterday, by the.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Way, what was that ball that went for four point
three million dollars?
Speaker 3 (05:19):
I mean it's insanity now.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
The baseball. Yeah, so that was show. Hey, Otani's no
fifty to fifty ball that went from four point four
But then then Freddy Freeman's just sold at auction for
one point five to six.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
You know, let me ask you something.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Now, I can see that with a Babe Ruth signed
baseball that was used in some playoff game, massive game
in nineteen twenty seven. And there's four of those that
exist in all of baseball, signed Babe Ruth walls that
I can see.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
But you know this one? Oh they oh it was
hit yesterday. Let's go for five million dollars, no show.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
Hey, Otani was the first major league player every hit
fifty home runs, all fifty bases.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Yes, okay, all right, let's compare that. Okay, let's compare that.
I remember Maury Wills in the old days.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
This is what I knew the Dodgers nineteen fifties, nineteen sixties,
the days of Don Drysdale and Sandy Cofax, and the
shortstop was Warri Wills.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
One season, one hundred and two stolen bases.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
How many home runs?
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Well, here's the shortstop and he was really short. He
was like three foot eight, so he was impossible to catch.
I don't know, but not many, not many. I'm not
arguing that it's not a big deal, but it used
to be Remember when twenty thirty dollars, twenty thirty million
dollars would buy you the most expensive Rembrandt Picasso that existed.
(06:47):
Now they break one hundred and thirty million, one hundred
and forty million dollars regularly.
Speaker 5 (06:53):
The latest baseball signing was eight hundred million.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
No, I understand that this guy, he's gotten crazy. It
really has. I mean not in a bad way.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I mean, if they can you know, if they can
justify it, I mean there's no issue. I mean, welcome
to the world of capitalism and paying show.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Hey a Tani.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Those insane numbers actually may play out, may pay out too. So.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
But now, as Cono pointed out, it's got gotten higher.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
What would that last a year?
Speaker 3 (07:20):
No?
Speaker 2 (07:21):
No, No, seven. It was seven hundred million over ten years.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Yeah, but now now Wan Soto has one for seven
sixty five.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
It's just eight d I know, what do you do
with that?
Speaker 5 (07:31):
I mean that didn't even live live like a year.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Before someone You know, it's just it's kind of insane,
it really is. I agree.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
And how do you play next to a guy who
makes twenty five times.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
As much as you do? Oh? We do?
Speaker 5 (07:44):
Okay? Here you work?
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Yeah, those are the figures here?
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Now you really you just get together, have drinks, talk
crap about you, I mean the person and you know
the player.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
All right, let's go. I think we do one story
before the break.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Here we go handle on the news with Amy King,
Neil Sevadra and me lead story Troubled Soul and it
was the Madison school shooting yesterday. A substitute teacher and
a student dead. The shooter dead, fifteen year old student
at the school self inflicted gunshot wound.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
They always, unfortunately, kill themselves after end of the girl
and a girl very unusual at seven o'clock. I have
some thoughts on all this. This is not going to
be my normal. We need gun control. That ship has sailed.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
But I when the shooting took place, I sat down
and really started thinking about what's going on. And I'd
like to share that with you. And that's coming up
at seven o'clock.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
No dice. A judge has rejected President elect Trump's argument
that the recent Supreme Court ruling that basically protects him
from or gives him immunity has his criminal case in
New York. So that means that the hush money case
conviction is in place. And then Trump immediately, of course
(09:10):
when you heard the decision said yeah, we're going to
fight that.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Of course it's going to fight that. And here's what
the decision stands on. The Supreme Court has ruled that
a president is immune for any issue he does in
a presidential or for a presidential race, particularly I no
a sitting president. Now, this was payment of hush money
(09:36):
to a porn star to not go forward with here
I have I've screwed Donald Trump, and it was to
not have that go public prior to the election because
it would have or may have interfered with the election.
He is going to argue that that is part of
what he did as president and part of his presidential immunity.
(09:59):
And the art argument on the other side is granted
as president in terms of the national interest. Paying money
to a porn star, that's part of national national usage
or part of a national activity. Come on, guys, And
that's what the judge said, basically, uh uh, this doesn't know.
(10:22):
There are certain things that a president cannot do and
will be held liable for, for example, shooting someone in
broad daylight on Broadway and killing them, and that would
be by the way, of course, I'm exaggerating here, but
I'm taking words from President Trump, and he would have
been it didn't matter for his electorate.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
But anyway, that's it. That's what the whole thing is
based on.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
All right, Bye to this fellaw. So you have a
top Russian general accused of using chemical weapons on the
battlefield in Ukraine. Apparently was killed after a bomb went
off in Moscow early this morning. Russian investigators said, this
is Lieutenant Igor Igor Krilla loof.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
Really lof, really really love.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Yeah Kriloff translated into dead person, I think yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
So he headed Russia's Radiological, Biological and Chemical Protection Forces
Protection Force, but was killed by.
Speaker 5 (11:30):
A remotely detonated bomb, so.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Which no one is really upset about, except of course Russia.
Speaker 5 (11:37):
And it seems that Kiev has said, yeah, that was us.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
Liar, liar, pants on fire. A former FBI informant has
pleaded guilty to lying about a bribery scheme involving President
Biden and his son Hunter became a central figure, or
a central theme in Republican efforts to launched an impeachment
inquiry in Congress. So Alexander Smirnoff in La pleaded guilty
(12:06):
to a felony charge, and he had told his FBI
handler that executives from the Ukrainian energy company Barisma had
paid President Biden and Hunter Biden five million dollars each
around to twenty fifteen.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Do you remember that story. It was huge and it
was predicated.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
It turned out on this informant, the entire story, and
I heard it over and over again, the five million
dollar bribe, the five million dollar bribe, and it became.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
A huge issue.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Well, it turned out that, as you said that the
information came from one person, he'd just been convicted of
lying about it. By the way, I've reached out to
a few of people, I argued with complete deflection, complete deflection.
Speaker 5 (12:55):
Do we know what his motive was?
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Yeah, to get to get Trump elected? What else? I'm
not even gonna say got paid off. I'm not gonna
say you got paid off. We have no idea. I'm guessing,
oh maybe it was money. I have no idea, but
it was lying.
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Oh no, that allegation is simply not true. And so
the people I've reached out to, well, let's go to
the next allegation, which is true. And when that is debunked, well,
let's go to the next allegation, which.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Is true, and unfortunately, once it's out there, people who
want to believe it believe it.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Yeah, that's true, that's true, all right.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
The ex wife of a doctor who was fatally shot
outside his medical clinic in Woodland Hills, that was a
big story as well. Now she was charged with murder
just yesterday, the district attorney, alleging she hired a hit
man to kill the victim for unspecified financial gain.
Speaker 5 (13:53):
Isn't that always the case?
Speaker 3 (13:55):
No, Sometimes you just hate your spouse. Oh yeah, Sometimes
you're get along. I can see it. Sometimes your spouse
rolls his or her eyes and you can see it.
Speaker 5 (14:06):
I can You're still walking.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Yeah, that's a shocker, you telling.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
Well, you're soon going to be able to get more
than candy and soda at your vending machines. Dallas based
startup called American Rounds has rolled out its first automated
retail ammunition machine. You can find it in the Fresh
Value grocery store in Pell's City, Alabama. It's got rifle,
shotgun and handgun ammunition. The company says it's safer and
(14:38):
more convenient to buy ammo at its vending machines than
at a large retailer store or online. Actually, the ammunition
kiosks are now open in nearly a dozen grocery stores
across Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama, and Colorado.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Now I can see more convenient.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
I buy that argument safer, I don't know, and it
doesn't say what the safety factors are.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Well, what they don't tell you in the story is
the kiosk is one of those claws you have to
reach in and grab the ammunition with.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
No, there's no guarantee that you actually get it.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Yes, so if you have dexterity and control, I mean,
you're getting it in the hands of somebody that can,
you know, shoot properly. Can you imagine imagine what foreigners
are thinking about America.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
They already think we're No, you.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Mean the foreigners from you know, Asian countries that have
soiled underwear.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Yeah, exactly. I believe soiled underwear. That it's hard to
kill people with soiled underwear, depending on how soil was
that Japan, Japan, that was Japanese coming up at seven o'clock.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
It's part of my musing with all of this.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
It's just this really got me thinking, this shooting and well,
this story is so insane, so we can move on.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
You know, we see what we want to see in life.
And this is really really sad. You heard the story
about a vehicle that the license plate looked like it
said lol oct seven, you know, laughing at laugh out
loud at October seventh, and there was all this hubbub
about it. Well, it turns out that it is on
(16:18):
a cyber truck and it's not laugh out loud. It's
Lolo CT seven. Lolo is grandpa. What is that in Filipino?
Speaker 4 (16:30):
And yeah Tagolic?
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Yeah, tagolic? Which are the girl Scout cookies that are
very very good?
Speaker 4 (16:35):
Those are tag along?
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Okay, I get this, always confused.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
And so it's it's grandfather CT for cyber truck, and
I guess he has seven grandkids.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Yeah that's true. I mean it makes sense. But how
about this.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
It can be interpreted that way and the DMV can
shut it down if it can be interpreted not even
it it's the only interpretation.
Speaker 5 (17:00):
Get that. But it's the fact that we see that first, right.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
And it doesn't even matter.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
I mean, people who are Filipino will see that as
grandfather seven, and then the rest of us look at
it and see wait a second, this is a statement
in October seventh, and it's pro terrorist. So that's the
way too many people would interpret it. So the DMV
shut it down. Now he can appeal it, and he will.
(17:30):
And the worst that happens is they yank the plate,
which is at.
Speaker 5 (17:34):
This point I would want another plate in personally.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
You would think so, wouldn't you. First of all, you
want another plate even when you're driving a cyber truck.
They are so hideously ugly. However, I know three people
who do own cyber trucks that swear by them. They
say it's the best damn thing they've ever driven.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Well, thankfully, his birthday is on September eleventh, so I
think he's going to change it to.
Speaker 4 (17:57):
Good point, just in time for Christis. Another group of
Amazon workers has voted in Illinois to authorize a strike.
It's the third one to do so in less than
a week. Teamsters officials said that workers at the Amazon
delivery station in Skokie, Illinois, voted overwhelmingly in favor of
(18:20):
authorizing the strike. That joins workers on New York City's
Staten Island and also workers in Queens who have voted
to authorize a strike if they don't get a deal.
The union had given Amazon December fifteenth deadline to agree
to come to the table and bargain, but obviously that
has passed.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
So you have I don't know how many Amazon warehouses
are in fact unionized, but obviously three of them have
authorized strikes the unions and are they going to become
more and more I guess popular among workers.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
You know, the tougher it.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
Is to work there, the more apt the workers tend
to unionize.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
So we'll see where that goes.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Also, people you've got you prospective union workers who are
working at their and they try to form a union.
They do it on Amazon grounds and under the National
Labor Relations laws can't be stopped. Makes it very easy
to form a union. And the only thing that stops
(19:25):
unions from being formed are the companies saying we do
better than the unions. You don't want to unionize because
your benefits, working conditions, pay is far better than what
would be negotiated. Well that's usually not the case.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Yeah, then why would you argue if you're going to
benefit by them being.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Well, sometimes it's a company.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Now, sometimes they don't quite do what they say they're
going to do. Just a story about you've got Amazon
workers and it's getting very tough because of product vity
and more and more injuries because they are speeding up,
especially during the holidays. Man, the number of boxes you
have to throw on those conveyor belts and the number
(20:10):
of boxes you pack, that's still human beings that take,
you know, the boxes of goods and put them into
the boxes for shipping.
Speaker 5 (20:19):
That explains the extra severed hand. I got one, yes,
my prime, that's true, all right.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Speaking of things traveling that shouldn't remember, Setlana Dolly. She
was the permanent US resident, but she's a Russian national
and she was the one that stowed away I think
going to Paris or something New York to Paris a
month or so ago. Well, she's been taken into custody again,
(20:47):
this time trying to sneak into Canada. She managed to
cut off her ankle monitor on Sunday that she was
wearing for the first crime and tried to, you know,
go to Canada.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Yeah, she got all pissed off on a previous flight
when they wouldn't let her bring her Lama aboard as
a service animal.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
Dully really, Yeah, her set of paints and her funny mustache.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, pretty much. That's a stretch. I understand
how stupid that is, but I don't know that you do,
you know, I think I do.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
I don't know how many I'm actually allowed during the
course of the show, but I usually exceed that number.
Speaker 5 (21:29):
That one counted for at least a dozen.
Speaker 4 (21:33):
Okay, speaking of a stretch, I got to get to
Europe if this is true. Fox News host Ainsley Earhart
is suggesting that pasta and pizza in Europe are lower
in calories than in the US. She said, when they
go to Europe, they don't gain any weight when they
pasta and pizza because they don't have pesticides in their
(21:55):
food like we do.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Oh yeahsta without pestae eyes.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Come on and Neil, you can comment on.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
That, yeah, and you tell scientific now they're thinner. Europeans
are thinner than Americans because they don't eat processed foods
the way we do, and they just don't overeat the
way we do.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Yes, but our pasta and our are does are similar
depending on where you go.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
A point. I want to make our side. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Part of our FK's Make America Healthy Again Agency would
eliminate pesticides in agriculture, and promote organic food in school lunches.
I want to make a point about organic food, pesticides,
and industrial farming that people say is horrible. If we
didn't have that, the world would starve. The only way
(22:55):
you can feed the number of people that are fed
both than this country and the number of people that
are fed with agricultural exports is because of pesticides, because
of an industrial fertilization, and because of industrial farming. Farmers,
the little farmers who plant thirty acres cannot compete, and
(23:19):
the prices that we pay for food, which among the
lowest in the world, simply wouldn't happen. So that's the
other side of industrialization. We won't eat the way we eat.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
It's that simple. You think inflation is bad now.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
For the cost of eggs, the cost of flour, the
cost of bread, it wouldn't come close to what it
doesn't come close to what it would be if you
didn't have industrial farming and pesticides.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
The reality is if there were pesticides and things that
made you absorb fat more or something like that, it's
about calories, period, calories in calories out right, it doesn't
change with pasta there or pasta here.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
And how and by the way, you know how tasty
worms are in apples.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
People don't realize that protein level very high.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
All right, all right, TikTok asked Scotis to block potential
US ban. Of course, this has been going back and forth.
The popular app here in the United States is looking
at the possibility of being banned unless its parent company
agrees to sell it by next month. So they're looking
for more time, create some breathing room to kind of.
Speaker 5 (24:35):
Figure out what to do. And we shall see.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Yeah. Now, White Dance is arguing First Amendment that.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
They have a right to keep the platform going on
a Chinese company. There are a few American companies that
are banned in China. And how do you think their
lawsuits are going against the Chinese government?
Speaker 3 (24:58):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Yeah, we you know, we're treated way all the time.
You try and you try and become an illegal alien
to other countries, even Mexico, and they're like, oh no,
you can't own property here, you can't do anything like that.
Speaker 5 (25:11):
You know.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Some of the racist people in the world are Mexican
as to Guatemalans.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
They hate Guatemalans.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Oh, there's not only that, but light skinned Mexicans versus
dark skinned Mexicans.
Speaker 5 (25:23):
All of that.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
There's racism and shades of racism in every culture.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
The Japanese are among the most racist people on the planet.
Speaker 5 (25:34):
Really.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
There was a lawyer that I worked with many many
years ago who was of Japanese descent, like third generation,
did not speak one word of Japanese. His girlfriend was
getting a master's in Japanese studies and she was dead
ass fluent in Japanese. So they both went to Japan
and they're walking down the street and more than once,
(25:56):
literally they were stopped and in Japanese, he was asked,
or he was yeah, he was asked, what are you
doing with this Guanjin, this barbarian, this subhuman person? And
she would say, you know, he doesn't speak any Japanese.
I just want to tell you that, and doesn't understand
(26:16):
a word you say in absolute, perfect, perfect Japanese.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
It would have been funny if she said, how dare
you say that about my husband?
Speaker 5 (26:27):
So, yeah, people like their own tribe in life.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
Unfortunately, there is not much wokeness Europe. There's a lot
of wokeness.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Okay, next story, Well, the biggest ice cube on Earth
is on the move. It's actually an iceberg. It's slightly
bigger than Rhode Island. This iceberg is moving through the
Southern Ocean. Apparently it had gotten stuck. It was just
sort of spinning in the same spot. But now it's
on the move again. It broke off or calved from
(27:01):
the Filchner Ronnie ice Shelf back in nineteen eighty six.
And now that it's broken free, scientists they they think
it's gonna keep drifting along ocean currents and head toward
warmer water and eventually we'll just break up and melt.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
That's lovely, boy, that'll certainly help ocean rising. Notice it's
cleverly named a twenty three A, not the Big Iceberg,
not any name that makes sense, like the Ross ice
Shelf or the fish Filter Roane ice shelf. No, No,
it's a twenty three A because that's a name that
(27:36):
just rolls off the tongue.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Doesn't it Wait a second? So if it breaks off
and it's in the ocean.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
It's already broken off.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
I know.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
But if I'm saying that an iceberg melts, that becomes
an iceberg, it breaks off. The mass is the mass
is the mass? How would it make them rise.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Because it makes the ocean rise.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Because you have a bunch of mouge ice cube, but
it's on is water. There is more liquid water, uh
and less ice, and that does make the water water.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
Changed its form.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
But if I put eight ice cubes and they melt,
it's not gonna make it overflow in my glass, is
what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
But there will be more liquid than ice. It's not
the same level.
Speaker 5 (28:19):
But if it's floating in the ocean, I mean if.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Then the oceans rise, there's enough. There's enough there neil
to make the oceans rise.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
I put more water.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Eight ounces of water and two ounces of ice. Yeah,
it's not gonna make more than six ounces of water.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
It does. It rises. The water rises.
Speaker 5 (28:43):
Are the dumbest man.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
And would you look that up or amy? Does water
rise when ice melts?
Speaker 5 (28:49):
Mass?
Speaker 3 (28:50):
Would you would? Would water rise when ice melts?
Speaker 4 (28:54):
Well, doesn't the iceberg displace the water?
Speaker 3 (28:57):
That's when it rises. Water displaces, But the water rises.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
If you are a ten pound ice cube and you
become ten pounds of water, Yeah, okay, do this take now,
if it's on land, and if take.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
Take it, take a rubber, take a rubber duck.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Take a rubber duck in a bathtub, okay, and it's
half full, and put in a huge chunk of ice
in there, and as it melts, the duck will rise.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
By the way, that's a religious concept. The duck has risen.
Speaker 4 (29:30):
Uck you duck, duck.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
NASA actually wrote an article about this. This is melting
ice in the ocean effects sea level unlike ice cubes
and a glass.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
How oh stop it. I want to know.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I think we have a couple more floating iceberg That
doesn't make sense now an iceberg on or not an iceberg?
Speaker 5 (29:57):
But well I guess on land.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
Well, those are not icebergs.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
Once it breaks off, I think that's when it affects.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
It does when it goes into the ocean. Sea level rises.
Speaker 5 (30:10):
Once it breaks off. Now it's just ice in the glass.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
That's correct. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Did NASA just say unlike ice in the glass, melting icebergs.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Rye make the water rise. But I get that correctly.
There's also a difference between fresh water is less dense
than salt water. Okay, Well, there you are.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
And there's also a difference between on this show, handle
is less dense than Neil.
Speaker 5 (30:42):
Oh, you're still dense, all right.
Speaker 4 (30:46):
This article melting ice in fresh water, no sea level rise,
melting ice in seawater sea level rises.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
Okay, well, I guess we go halfway on that, Neil. Okay,
I'm showing you. Let's kiss, let's not. We're halfway there.
All right, We're done, guys, that's the news. Great arguing
about ice in glasses. Okay, we're done, guys.
Speaker 5 (31:13):
Heating edge programming.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Yeah, oh, it's this is why we can't get an
assistant producer or any intern working on this show.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
The next segment, we're actually gonna white watch ice melt.
