Speaker 2 (01:12):
No no last name at all.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
Dallas rains for example in channel seven, that is his name.
We got a mute issue here. Uh that is actually
his name. No idea where the mute is going? All right?
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Why am I hearing that?
Speaker 4 (01:30):
Is that better?
Speaker 5 (01:31):
It's Amy?
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Amy got to mute it.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
You gotta see.
Speaker 5 (01:35):
Normally Ann does this for me, but Michelle won't turn
my everybody can put it. I don't know how to
mute it.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
Michelle, you sound like me. I'm the only one that's
allowed to do that. Amy all right, If I keep
it low like that, the echo doesn't happen, right, I
think so.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
It sounds certain that it sounds very romantic.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
It does because he's Valentine's Day, Neil.
Speaker 5 (02:02):
I found it.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Neil. Yeah, I think of you, and I get would
you know that?
Speaker 5 (02:06):
Don't you stop it?
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Well, it's so what It's six o six and we've
started already on the show.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
You've started already.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
It is a Friday morning, Foody Friday, which is always great.
Fun Foody Friday is because at eight o'clock Neil we
come aboard and he does Foody Friday.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
And Neil is and this is not blowing smoke.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Neil is one of the best cooks chefs actually I've
ever been.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
You know what, that's that's very kind of you. It's true,
that's a title like a military it.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Is, but that I understand creating foods and coming out
it's you're not a cook cook follows recipes, chefs create
and you and I've been to your place you create,
I've seen you say I've asked for recipes and you've
said I don't have a recipe. I just sort of
did this and through whatever I could, and it's fabulous.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
I have plenty of sault bombs in my past where
I'm like.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Okay, I just thought, you know, I'm being nice, and
when I'm being nice, which is very rare, at least
I'm telling the truth. Okay, today some fun stuff because
as candle anything, we do that on Friday, and that's
getting great reviews, I think because it's just so embarrassing
for me, so humiliating, and people enjoy knowing what I'm like,
(03:28):
or like, what anybody is like. There's something about people
behind the mic. People want to know what are they
like in real life? And I'm the same way. I'm
exactly the same way, what are they like? When I
first started, we had Tom Likes here, who his ratings
were so horrible, but his ratings were the best of
this station. That's how bad.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
We were horrible.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Yeah they were compared to what we have gotten. Yeah
they were.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
By the way, that's not his fault. Because no one
was not his fault. No one was listening to KFI.
We came from zero.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
So he's probably in those days one of the best
broadcasters that LA had ever seen. Could have been huge
if he didn't go down that path of the TNA.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Yeah, he'd go down and on the radio, he would
ask I when we met him once and I know downstairs, Yeah,
I knew him. He's somebody that I know.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
He loves to cook, he loves to I think he
loves to grill, he loves wine. He's somebody i'd like
to I think he has a winery in this business
for thirty years.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
I think I think he has a winery up in
northern California's interesting stuff. Okay, so much for that, And
then a real fun when at seven, at seven thirty,
how flunking a personality test can actually cost you your
dream job. And I have a personal story about taking
a personality test.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Oh, I would love to seem to.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
Get a job that is seven thirty, And I will
share that story with you. You have the result, not
going to not going to share, not going to share
until seven thirty, and yes, I'm going to share the results.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Did you have to take a test for each personality
or do you taste take it once?
Speaker 4 (05:07):
Or okay, okay, my middle name is Sybil. Okay, you
finally recognize it.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Fair enough? Anyway, that's a seven.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Thirty I take a personality test, and so oh in
a story about at seven fifty fake i DS, which
naturally all the kids have used, my kids included, and
I have.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
A personal story about that and the radio.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
And that's a fun story too about fake id's and
it has a political spin to it. And that's at
seven fifty. And that's another teast. Okay, guys, Hello, there's
Anne harassing me as always, good morning.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
I'm not here today.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
I always do that, don't I?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Unfortunately? Yeah, good morning.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Why do I conflate your name Amy with Anne because
they're two a's. That's why.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
All right, Amy, Hi kono? Who I conflate with?
Speaker 4 (05:59):
No one? Hello?
Speaker 5 (06:00):
Oh? No?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
And Neil? Who you know?
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Neil? Yeah? Okay, Neil Gowarnie Hello? Yeah, all right, Michelle.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Good morning. Do you know Valentine's real first name?
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (06:17):
Edwardio?
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Sean?
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (06:22):
Fair enough?
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Good morning Sean, mornings to Valentine.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Yeah, it sounds like Kirk Douglas's real name. I just
grew up in a very Jewish home. Kirk Douglas a Brahma,
it's a titch or something like that. So weird names,
uh is John Wayne, I always yeah, Michael something Morrison.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
Is his first name is like Miriam or something.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
Yeah, I think I think it is. And uh so
they made him change to some weird name. Those are
the days when you grab names that then they didn't
give you the name. Same thing with radio you would
get you know. For example, there was a very famous
DJ here in Los Angeles, the real Don Steele, remember him.
(07:10):
His first name though, was the real and so that
was legitimate.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Lucille Ball was Lucy Testicles.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Yeah, well said okay, guys, let's do it.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
It's time for Handle on the news with Amy and
Neil and b lead story and man, it is all
about the rain and it is a tough one here
in southern California.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Amy, I defer to.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
You, well it rained a lot, Thank you.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Okay, second story in the studio.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
You know what, we got a huge day lose yesterday
and it was right when forecaster said it was going
to happen. The National Weather Service was saying between four
and nine pm. Was gonna be the heaviest drain and
that's when it came down. And we still have chances
for rain today, but not nearly as much. We do
have some mudslides, some debris flows, some flooding, but overall,
(08:08):
I think we kind of lucked out on this.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Could have been worse, could have been worre and wet.
In some areas got two to three inches. That that
is a day loge.
Speaker 5 (08:15):
The San Gabriel Dam area five and a half inches.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
I mean, that is crazy.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
Downtown La got almost three inches, like two point eight inches.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
Which is even though we're still in drought though the
rain is if I'm in the dry rain, it is
a dry rain. There's no water in it. Well said,
but Amy, we're still below the pace that we would
normally have at fifteen and a half inches of rain
for the year, are we not?
Speaker 5 (08:39):
We are for southern California, but northern California is doing
so well that we might be okay. Like they're The
Shafted Dam is up twenty two feet in the last
couple of weeks. Orville Dam is up twenty three feet
because they got twenty four inches of rain in two weeks.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
Yeah, and they still have not hit capacity, have they.
Speaker 5 (08:58):
No.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
No, If you go to Boulderdam, Hoover Dam, and you'll
see Lake Mead right behind it. If you look at
the water, it is so low or was so low
those huge pumps that they look like German hand grenades.
During World War Two. It almost reached the point they
(09:21):
and they are low too to suck up water to
go to the turbines. They were close to being a deadpool,
which means number one, it's a movie that did pretty good,
pretty well, and number two, there wasn't enough water. That's
a tough one that never happened before.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
Okay, Trump's team is closer to complete. The Senate has
voted to confirm Robert F. Kennedy, Junior as the Health
and Human Services Secretary. Of the vote fifty two to
forty eight. There are fifty three Republicans in the Senate.
Mitch McConnell of Kentucky once again joined the Democrats to
oppose the nomination.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
Yeah, he's has Donald Trump personally and had a real
issue with RFK recording the vaccines. Now, all of the
under secretaries you go to see that also have to
be confirmed. Most of them are in iron lungs because
they didn't take the polio vaccine.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
We're going backwards as a civilization.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
But matter of fact, I ask you, wait, you wait
till one of these undersecretaries are asked a question and
they're going to answer.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Okay, all right, let's move on.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Is that because of the iron lung?
Speaker 4 (10:34):
Yeah, okay, it was an iron lung joke most for
those you have no idea what an iron lung is
because a little bit dated. They don't use that anymore.
Go look up iron lung. There are a lot of fun.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Very last the last user of an iron lung just
passed away not long ago. Yeah, he became an attorney
in there and everything.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
Yeah, taking the bar inside an iron lung is no
small feet, and that's because he had small feet. Okay,
let's move on.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
I'm rubber your glue. Whatever your tariff bounces off of
me in tariffs you that's a horrible Trump. But I
think they get what's going on. President Donald Trump signed
a memorandum Thursday calling for fair and reciprocal trade tariffs
on all major US trading partners, including longtime allies, which
(11:22):
is I think what raises the eyebrow.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
Oh yeah, here is he.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Just says purpose of tariffsy, we've been paying more than others.
We're just gonna match.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
It's a trade it's a straight out trade war. He's
right by the way, China, for example, charges everything that
comes in, and they don't let a lot of things
at ours that we produce sold, so it is horrifically unfair.
He's absolutely right about that. But here's the trade war.
And he has admitted, yep, there's going to be some
pain as opposed to when I come in, prices are
(11:53):
going to decrease day one, and he has admitted that
is true.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
It is going to be painful long. We don't know
what's going to happen.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
He figures crossed. But yeah, he's been in a trade
When was the last time we were in a trade war.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
Oh, we've been in trade wars with China before. We've
had tariffs like crazy. The Smooth Holly Act. I think
either that dealing with ships going to the United States
and ports or it's tariffs. Don't know, it's one of
the two bill. But we've had trade wars.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
Before, so here's a question. Though he hasn't actually imposed
these tariffs, he has said we're going to Is it
a negotiating tactic.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
Don't know, but I'll tell you he's the president that walks.
He walks the talk.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
He absolutely does. Yeah, yesterday, what was it?
Speaker 4 (12:44):
The offer for federal employees to resign a buy out
until September. Okay, and those that didn't, looks like you
may be fired. The mass firings happened the next morning
and they're still going on now. I don't know what
mass means, uh in quotation marks, but a lot of
people losing their jobs, he said. And he said he's
(13:06):
going to clean out and redo the federal government completely
top to bottom. And what is he doing.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
He's doing exactly what he said.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
And I think everything is a tactic, don't you. Everything's
just a negotiator. I think that's I think that's his muscle.
Speaker 4 (13:21):
No, I think you're yeah, you're right, except that I
think they're saying some things that are so near and
dear and visceral to him that he's just going to
do it. And tariff we wanted to do well he does.
And then if you're going to.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Negotiate, you have to be willing to do whatever. You know,
that's the only power in your negotiations.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
And in terms of restructuring the federal government.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
I'll tell you one thing.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
When's the last time you saw a president who said,
I'm going to restructure the government because there's too much
crap in it?
Speaker 5 (13:50):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (13:50):
And he did it. Growth of government has been far,
far greater than inflation, has been far greater than other industries.
So you know, the you know, the court is still
in out or in session, or you know, it's the
ball court or whatever the hell you goes. You know,
I don't know how that goes. Well, Sorry, ready to
(14:11):
come back. Hey, I'm good with those free I get
that from my mother. By the way, just to let
you know the malapropisms. My mother and my mother and
dad had bought new furniture in their house, first time
they ever did, and they went around saying, you know,
but the arms and the legs are so expensive, and
I'm trying to figure out what the hell is that
(14:32):
it costs an arm in the lake? See how that works?
And that is that's what she said.
Speaker 5 (14:38):
Police have prevented a Valentine's Day massacre. A teenage girl
has been arrested for allegedly plotting a mass shooting at
her high school in Indiana. She'd planned to do it,
apparently on Valentine's Day. Now, they got wind of this
because a tipster said that their friend was planning an attack,
(14:58):
had access to an aar Fil fifteen, and had just
ordered a bulletproof vest.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Yeah. Also went to a mental health counseling on Tuesday
disclosed being sexually attracted to Nicholas Cruz, who opened fire
at Marjorie Douglas Douglas Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School. I
mean on and on killers faces. I just you think
(15:25):
there were some signs there, I mean, it didn't stop
so and is there any doubt that she would have
done it? Absolutely none.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
Yeah, it's kind of got crazy face. Yeah, all right,
Pope Francis. He's been admitted to the hospital. Of course,
he's had back and forth health issues. This medical examination
is to treat bronchitis, and he's been, you know, doing
a lot. At eighty eight years old, he's continued at
his activities and the audience's indoors and all that. He
(16:00):
handed off his speeches for his aid to read aloud.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
Yeah, I mean posts last forever and they last forever.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Have one lung too, he does, he has he has
one lung and.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Michelle, Yeah, it was a line.
Speaker 4 (16:18):
Yeah, that was.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Gary.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
Yeah, who came up with that song? And it's just
a phenomenal I don't know that song.
Speaker 5 (16:28):
It's from the Conclave, the musical bit that we did
when they.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Were that's right, when they were when they were conclaving.
Speaker 5 (16:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
Uh, and ended up choosing Francis as the new pope,
which is very interesting how that works. Conclave, because you
have a bunch of cardinals running around doing nothing but politicking,
nothing but politicking, and all of a sudden someone is
elected pope and now it's a direct line to Jesus.
It is a singular line, no one can hack it,
(16:57):
and picks up the phone and goes, hey, Jesus, what's
going on today. It's fascinating how that works.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
Have you seen the movie Conclave?
Speaker 4 (17:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (17:05):
Yeah, GeV Yeah, getting together to gloat a bit. California
Attorney General Rob Bonta and eighteen other state attorneys general
of issued a statement after another judge I think that's
been three at least have blocked President Trump's executive order
that tries to get rid of birthrate birthright citizenship. The
(17:30):
message says President Trump may believe he is above the law.
But today's preliminary injunction sends a clear message he is
not a king and he cannot rewrite the Constitution with
the stroke of a pen.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Well, it's not quite rewriting the Constitution.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
It's interpreting the line under the jurisdiction thereof in reference
to the United States, and that can go either way.
The court can say that if parents who are not legal,
they are not under to quote the jurisdiction of the
United States, much like diplomats. Diplomat's kids were born in
(18:03):
Iasais are not citizens. So and much like the court
interpreting the Second Amendment. You know, the militia line is
it disappeared? Disappeared even though it's right there in the Constitution.
So the court go that way, will it? I don't
think so. I don't think so. I think the fourteenth
Amendment is pretty clear cut. But you know, you never
(18:23):
know with this court, you never know with any court.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Actually, well, isn't that why you have verbiage in there?
I mean, why have that clause at all?
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Well, because everything has to be has to be interpreted.
For example, the First Amendment. Okay, how far does that go?
Is pornography covered? The First Amendment, Yes, it is allowed
to do that. Freedom of religion. How far does freedom
of religion go? Does that include prayer in the schools?
Is that prohibited under the First Amendment freedom of religion? Maybe? Maybe?
(18:57):
And the courts have certainly gone that way, saying no
prayer in school, not even a moment of silence. Can't
even have that because that's a violation of the separation
of church estate. So it's all a matter of interpretation.
Is the document a living breathing document. I don't know
how paper breathes. But that's one view. The other view is,
(19:20):
and this is what originalists say, You have to look
at the language of the Constitution, look at the four
corners of the document itself. For example, privacy Roe v. Wade,
and the right to privacy still exists. It came out
of nowhere the court. Blackman actually wrote the opinion, where's
(19:42):
the right to privacy? Scully? You ask, it's not there?
And what Blackman wrote? It exists because of the p
number of the rights. If you put all of it together,
if you look at the ecdoplasm of the Constitution.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
What flows from the Constitution are these rights?
Speaker 4 (20:01):
And the originalists say absolutely not first Amendment, I mean
the right to fourteenth Amendment, right to birthright says right there,
born in the United States, you are a citizen. So
does that help? Of course? Not?
Speaker 3 (20:19):
All right, all right on, moving on, Okay, Elon Musk
can continues to rub people the wrong way. California has
joined more than a dozen other states just yesterday ensuing
the Trump administration over Elon Musk's informal, sort of formal
(20:40):
role as the president's personal budget advisor. And they say
that it's you know, everybody the same word we're going
to be hearing forever unconstitutional, and that he has all
this authority and democracy as we know it is collapsing
because they're actually turning over rocks and saying you paid
how much for what?
Speaker 4 (20:59):
Yeah? I don't know. Oh yeah, but I don't know
if that's unconstitutional because he's doing it on behalf of
the president. You have to be an official of the
government to do that. I don't I don't know. By
the way, when I refer to freedom, separation of church
and state, and you can't pray in school, for example,
that's public schools. It's not private schools. You can pray
(21:20):
all day long if you want in private schools Catholic schools.
Do they do another?
Speaker 2 (21:24):
But do they do anything but praying Catholic schools?
Speaker 3 (21:26):
What another thing that's not in the constitution. Separation of
church and state does not exist in the Constitution. That
term comes from.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
Right, the separate Now the state shall the state shall
not abridge freedom of religion, and that has.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Or pick one as the state or the national religion.
Speaker 4 (21:48):
Yeah, you can't do that. Where in England the term
none of that. We're in England, by the way, there
is a state religion is and the Queen is the
defender of the faith. Although of course all religions can
be practiced in Britain even though there is a state religion.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Yeah, if that was going to cause any problems like
a revolutionary war.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
Yeah yeah. Israel, for example, there's a state religion. Does
Israel allow other religions?
Speaker 2 (22:18):
For example?
Speaker 4 (22:18):
Can Islam be practiced in Israel? Not too many people
do because they're all killed. If they do practice in Israel,
I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
They have mosques in Israel, Yeah they do.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
Now, there's a serious freedom of religion there, so theocracy,
but it is it is an official state religion. All right,
let's go finish up handle on the news with Amy,
Neil and Me and Neil and me is No, I
don't think so.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
I think it's Nils.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
I think it's Nils.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
That doesn't make sense.
Speaker 5 (22:56):
Oh no, but did you do to story seven?
Speaker 4 (23:03):
That's all?
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Yeah, okay, then it's okay. Next, got to do everything
around IRS. The handsome be funny bees marches.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
Still talking about Elon Musk here. Elon Musk is freaking
the Democrats out because he's attempting to overhaul US Agency
for International Development and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and
gain access into the Treasury Department and now has moved
over to the IRS. Oregon Democratic Senator Ron Wyden says
(23:34):
Doge is now with the IRS. That means Musk's henchmen
are in a position to dig through a trove of
data about every taxpayer in America.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
Yeah, and well that's one aspect of it. That's one view.
The other view is going to clean out the IRS
the agents because there are too many of them and
they cost too much money, which I've always wondered how
the government does that. You think they'd be more IRS
agents because they make a lot of money for the government.
(24:05):
I mean that is a profit center, you would think
not necessarily, Okay, Neil, now you Jonah.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
If you I know, if you did not see this,
you have to look it up. A humpback whale briefly
swallows kayaker in Chilean, Patagonia, and it's all captured on camera.
I think by the guy's dad.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
It was yeah, and the guy's dad was calm and
captured the whole thing. I mean it took it was
just a second. You know. The whale swallows him, I
guess by a mistake and then goes phit. I don't
want this. I don't want this person in my mouth.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
But I was thinking about that as a father. I'm like,
what would I have sat there and continued to tape it?
Speaker 4 (24:57):
Yeah, and I can. I aren't.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Aren't humpbacks bayleen whales?
Speaker 5 (25:02):
Yeah, what's that, Baileen?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
You can look it up.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
They eat They eat krill, which are a little tiny,
almost microscopic shrimp, and they're not they're they're not like sharks.
They don't eat chunks out of people, they don't eat mammals,
they don't eat virtually anything. It's a filter, big big miles, Yeah,
huge mouths, and there's a filter there.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Yes, she's looking it up.
Speaker 5 (25:27):
Well, no, I'm watching the video because I actually have
seen humpback whales feeding and they do do that, but
they also eat fish.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
Wow, yeah, you're bound to right, So I don't you
know what, look it up?
Speaker 4 (25:39):
Look it up because I think baileen whales do not
eat fish. They just filter krill. I think they filter
out the fish. I think they do because what a
whales sound like. Most of them are that high pitched
sound they do, humpback whales are. There's a lot of that.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
Okay, So pumpback whales do filter feed on small crustaceans,
mostly krill, and also small fish.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
Okay, they have to be very small fish.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Then they have to be sardinia.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Be like you perceive the rest of your crew.
Speaker 5 (26:13):
Will They do this thing called bubble fishing where they
all hurt around and then they all go down and
they blow bubbles up and it forces the fish up
to the surface and then they come up and open
their mouths like he did for that kayaker and go
and chomp them.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Yeah, dolphins do the same thing. Orcas do the same
thing with their prey.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
Handle, and I do the same thing in a buffet.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
That's absolutely correct.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
Well, at least he spit them out quickly.
Speaker 4 (26:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
It just it was mind blowing because it's like, could
you imagine he would be eating my poop and my
pea because I would be voiding myself.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
Oh that's delightful. All right, I think we have one
more coming up.
Speaker 5 (26:54):
Do you remember getting a good night's sleep?
Speaker 4 (26:57):
No?
Speaker 5 (26:57):
Okay, Well, the number of studies show that's there's an
association between the risk of dementia and sleep.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
AIDS told you.
Speaker 5 (27:05):
Insufficient sleep by itself is also linked to health effects,
heart disease, type two diabetes, memory problems. About eight point
four percent of US adults who report taking medication to
help them sleep the previous month.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
So how do you spell ambient?
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Oh? Handle has a G A give me and M
How do you still take that stuff.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
You put in your mouth?
Speaker 4 (27:31):
I get it and I swallow a little bit of
water and it goes down your throat?
Speaker 3 (27:34):
What? How have you weaned your it is? It is
malpracticed for anybody to give you ambient anymore.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
Yeah. I go to drug dealer and let me tell
you how difficult it is. Drug dealers don't stand on
corners and.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
Go, hey, you want to try some ambient Hey, they
don't do that. Okay, I think we're done, guys.
Speaker 4 (27:52):
That is it.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
We are feene on the news. This is KFI A
M six. You've been listening to the Bill handle A show.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Kirkland being I guess, the king of private labels.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
This was, you know, growing up, whenever you got like
tasty O's or fruity you know, holes, that's not a
good one.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
And now handle on the news, ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
Here's Bill Handle. Here we go, unmute the mic. It
is I just lost the introduction, so I just don't
remember what happened. Anyway, It is Valentine's Day, February fourteenth,
(00:51):
twenty twenty five, and cono were we gonna be interviewing
Valentine this morning? He's on my I know, but yeah,
it's Valentine's Day. It's a kind of did there, Yeah, yeah,
so clever. So I don't know. Yes, it's val that's
his name. By the way, that's his real name, is Valentine.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
There are no no last name, no first no.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
No no last name at all.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
Dallas rains for example in channel seven, that is his name.
We got a mute issue here. Uh that is actually
his name. No idea where the mute is going? All right?
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Why am I hearing that?
Speaker 4 (01:30):
Is that better?
Speaker 5 (01:31):
It's Amy?
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Amy got to mute it.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
You gotta see.
Speaker 5 (01:35):
Normally Ann does this for me, but Michelle won't turn
my everybody can put it. I don't know how to
mute it.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
Michelle, you sound like me. I'm the only one that's
allowed to do that. Amy all right, If I keep
it low like that, the echo doesn't happen, right, I
think so.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
It sounds certain that it sounds very romantic.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
It does because he's Valentine's Day, Neil.
Speaker 5 (02:02):
I found it.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Neil. Yeah, I think of you, and I get would
you know that?
Speaker 5 (02:06):
Don't you stop it?
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Well, it's so what It's six o six and we've
started already on the show.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
You've started already.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
It is a Friday morning, Foody Friday, which is always great.
Fun Foody Friday is because at eight o'clock Neil we
come aboard and he does Foody Friday.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
And Neil is and this is not blowing smoke.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Neil is one of the best cooks chefs actually I've
ever been.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
You know what, that's that's very kind of you. It's true,
that's a title like a military it.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Is, but that I understand creating foods and coming out
it's you're not a cook cook follows recipes, chefs create
and you and I've been to your place you create,
I've seen you say I've asked for recipes and you've
said I don't have a recipe. I just sort of
did this and through whatever I could, and it's fabulous.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
I have plenty of sault bombs in my past where
I'm like.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Okay, I just thought, you know, I'm being nice, and
when I'm being nice, which is very rare, at least
I'm telling the truth. Okay, today some fun stuff because
as candle anything, we do that on Friday, and that's
getting great reviews, I think because it's just so embarrassing
for me, so humiliating, and people enjoy knowing what I'm like,
(03:28):
or like, what anybody is like. There's something about people
behind the mic. People want to know what are they
like in real life? And I'm the same way. I'm
exactly the same way, what are they like? When I
first started, we had Tom Likes here, who his ratings
were so horrible, but his ratings were the best of
this station. That's how bad.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
We were horrible.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Yeah they were compared to what we have gotten. Yeah
they were.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
By the way, that's not his fault. Because no one
was not his fault. No one was listening to KFI.
We came from zero.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
So he's probably in those days one of the best
broadcasters that LA had ever seen. Could have been huge
if he didn't go down that path of the TNA.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Yeah, he'd go down and on the radio, he would
ask I when we met him once and I know downstairs, Yeah,
I knew him. He's somebody that I know.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
He loves to cook, he loves to I think he
loves to grill, he loves wine. He's somebody i'd like
to I think he has a winery in this business
for thirty years.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
I think I think he has a winery up in
northern California's interesting stuff. Okay, so much for that, And
then a real fun when at seven, at seven thirty,
how flunking a personality test can actually cost you your
dream job. And I have a personal story about taking
a personality test.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Oh, I would love to seem to.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
Get a job that is seven thirty, And I will
share that story with you. You have the result, not
going to not going to share, not going to share
until seven thirty, and yes, I'm going to share the results.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Did you have to take a test for each personality
or do you taste take it once?
Speaker 4 (05:07):
Or okay, okay, my middle name is Sybil. Okay, you
finally recognize it.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Fair enough? Anyway, that's a seven.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Thirty I take a personality test, and so oh in
a story about at seven fifty fake i DS, which
naturally all the kids have used, my kids included, and
I have.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
A personal story about that and the radio.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
And that's a fun story too about fake id's and
it has a political spin to it. And that's at
seven fifty. And that's another teast. Okay, guys, Hello, there's
Anne harassing me as always, good morning.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
I'm not here today.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
I always do that, don't I?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Unfortunately? Yeah, good morning.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Why do I conflate your name Amy with Anne because
they're two a's. That's why.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
All right, Amy, Hi kono? Who I conflate with?
Speaker 4 (05:59):
No one? Hello?
Speaker 5 (06:00):
Oh? No?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
And Neil? Who you know?
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Neil? Yeah? Okay, Neil Gowarnie Hello? Yeah, all right, Michelle.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Good morning. Do you know Valentine's real first name?
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (06:17):
Edwardio?
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Sean?
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (06:22):
Fair enough?
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Good morning Sean, mornings to Valentine.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Yeah, it sounds like Kirk Douglas's real name. I just
grew up in a very Jewish home. Kirk Douglas a Brahma,
it's a titch or something like that. So weird names,
uh is John Wayne, I always yeah, Michael something Morrison.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
Is his first name is like Miriam or something.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
Yeah, I think I think it is. And uh so
they made him change to some weird name. Those are
the days when you grab names that then they didn't
give you the name. Same thing with radio you would
get you know. For example, there was a very famous
DJ here in Los Angeles, the real Don Steele, remember him.
(07:10):
His first name though, was the real and so that
was legitimate.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Lucille Ball was Lucy Testicles.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Yeah, well said okay, guys, let's do it.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
It's time for Handle on the news with Amy and
Neil and b lead story and man, it is all
about the rain and it is a tough one here
in southern California.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Amy, I defer to.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
You, well it rained a lot, Thank you.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Okay, second story in the studio.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
You know what, we got a huge day lose yesterday
and it was right when forecaster said it was going
to happen. The National Weather Service was saying between four
and nine pm. Was gonna be the heaviest drain and
that's when it came down. And we still have chances
for rain today, but not nearly as much. We do
have some mudslides, some debris flows, some flooding, but overall,
(08:08):
I think we kind of lucked out on this.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Could have been worse, could have been worre and wet.
In some areas got two to three inches. That that
is a day loge.
Speaker 5 (08:15):
The San Gabriel Dam area five and a half inches.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
I mean, that is crazy.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
Downtown La got almost three inches, like two point eight inches.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
Which is even though we're still in drought though the
rain is if I'm in the dry rain, it is
a dry rain. There's no water in it. Well said,
but Amy, we're still below the pace that we would
normally have at fifteen and a half inches of rain
for the year, are we not?
Speaker 5 (08:39):
We are for southern California, but northern California is doing
so well that we might be okay. Like they're The
Shafted Dam is up twenty two feet in the last
couple of weeks. Orville Dam is up twenty three feet
because they got twenty four inches of rain in two weeks.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
Yeah, and they still have not hit capacity, have they.
Speaker 5 (08:58):
No.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
No, If you go to Boulderdam, Hoover Dam, and you'll
see Lake Mead right behind it. If you look at
the water, it is so low or was so low
those huge pumps that they look like German hand grenades.
During World War Two. It almost reached the point they
(09:21):
and they are low too to suck up water to
go to the turbines. They were close to being a deadpool,
which means number one, it's a movie that did pretty good,
pretty well, and number two, there wasn't enough water. That's
a tough one that never happened before.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
Okay, Trump's team is closer to complete. The Senate has
voted to confirm Robert F. Kennedy, Junior as the Health
and Human Services Secretary. Of the vote fifty two to
forty eight. There are fifty three Republicans in the Senate.
Mitch McConnell of Kentucky once again joined the Democrats to
oppose the nomination.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
Yeah, he's has Donald Trump personally and had a real
issue with RFK recording the vaccines. Now, all of the
under secretaries you go to see that also have to
be confirmed. Most of them are in iron lungs because
they didn't take the polio vaccine.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
We're going backwards as a civilization.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
But matter of fact, I ask you, wait, you wait
till one of these undersecretaries are asked a question and
they're going to answer.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Okay, all right, let's move on.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
Is that because of the iron lung?
Speaker 4 (10:34):
Yeah, okay, it was an iron lung joke most for
those you have no idea what an iron lung is
because a little bit dated. They don't use that anymore.
Go look up iron lung. There are a lot of fun.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Very last the last user of an iron lung just
passed away not long ago. Yeah, he became an attorney
in there and everything.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
Yeah, taking the bar inside an iron lung is no
small feet, and that's because he had small feet. Okay,
let's move on.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
I'm rubber your glue. Whatever your tariff bounces off of
me in tariffs you that's a horrible Trump. But I
think they get what's going on. President Donald Trump signed
a memorandum Thursday calling for fair and reciprocal trade tariffs
on all major US trading partners, including longtime allies, which
(11:22):
is I think what raises the eyebrow.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
Oh yeah, here is he.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Just says purpose of tariffsy, we've been paying more than others.
We're just gonna match.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
It's a trade it's a straight out trade war. He's
right by the way, China, for example, charges everything that
comes in, and they don't let a lot of things
at ours that we produce sold, so it is horrifically unfair.
He's absolutely right about that. But here's the trade war.
And he has admitted, yep, there's going to be some
pain as opposed to when I come in, prices are
(11:53):
going to decrease day one, and he has admitted that
is true.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
It is going to be painful long. We don't know
what's going to happen.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
He figures crossed. But yeah, he's been in a trade
When was the last time we were in a trade war.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
Oh, we've been in trade wars with China before. We've
had tariffs like crazy. The Smooth Holly Act. I think
either that dealing with ships going to the United States
and ports or it's tariffs. Don't know, it's one of
the two bill. But we've had trade wars.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
Before, so here's a question. Though he hasn't actually imposed
these tariffs, he has said we're going to Is it
a negotiating tactic.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
Don't know, but I'll tell you he's the president that walks.
He walks the talk.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
He absolutely does. Yeah, yesterday, what was it?
Speaker 4 (12:44):
The offer for federal employees to resign a buy out
until September. Okay, and those that didn't, looks like you
may be fired. The mass firings happened the next morning
and they're still going on now. I don't know what
mass means, uh in quotation marks, but a lot of
people losing their jobs, he said. And he said he's
(13:06):
going to clean out and redo the federal government completely
top to bottom. And what is he doing.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
He's doing exactly what he said.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
And I think everything is a tactic, don't you. Everything's
just a negotiator. I think that's I think that's his muscle.
Speaker 4 (13:21):
No, I think you're yeah, you're right, except that I
think they're saying some things that are so near and
dear and visceral to him that he's just going to
do it. And tariff we wanted to do well he does.
And then if you're going to.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Negotiate, you have to be willing to do whatever. You know,
that's the only power in your negotiations.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
And in terms of restructuring the federal government.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
I'll tell you one thing.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
When's the last time you saw a president who said,
I'm going to restructure the government because there's too much
crap in it?
Speaker 5 (13:50):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (13:50):
And he did it. Growth of government has been far,
far greater than inflation, has been far greater than other industries.
So you know, the you know, the court is still
in out or in session, or you know, it's the
ball court or whatever the hell you goes. You know,
I don't know how that goes. Well, Sorry, ready to
(14:11):
come back. Hey, I'm good with those free I get
that from my mother. By the way, just to let
you know the malapropisms. My mother and my mother and
dad had bought new furniture in their house, first time
they ever did, and they went around saying, you know,
but the arms and the legs are so expensive, and
I'm trying to figure out what the hell is that
(14:32):
it costs an arm in the lake? See how that works?
And that is that's what she said.
Speaker 5 (14:38):
Police have prevented a Valentine's Day massacre. A teenage girl
has been arrested for allegedly plotting a mass shooting at
her high school in Indiana. She'd planned to do it,
apparently on Valentine's Day. Now, they got wind of this
because a tipster said that their friend was planning an attack,
(14:58):
had access to an aar Fil fifteen, and had just
ordered a bulletproof vest.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Yeah. Also went to a mental health counseling on Tuesday
disclosed being sexually attracted to Nicholas Cruz, who opened fire
at Marjorie Douglas Douglas Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School. I
mean on and on killers faces. I just you think
(15:25):
there were some signs there, I mean, it didn't stop
so and is there any doubt that she would have
done it? Absolutely none.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
Yeah, it's kind of got crazy face. Yeah, all right,
Pope Francis. He's been admitted to the hospital. Of course,
he's had back and forth health issues. This medical examination
is to treat bronchitis, and he's been, you know, doing
a lot. At eighty eight years old, he's continued at
his activities and the audience's indoors and all that. He
(16:00):
handed off his speeches for his aid to read aloud.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
Yeah, I mean posts last forever and they last forever.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Have one lung too, he does, he has he has
one lung and.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Michelle, Yeah, it was a line.
Speaker 4 (16:18):
Yeah, that was.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Gary.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
Yeah, who came up with that song? And it's just
a phenomenal I don't know that song.
Speaker 5 (16:28):
It's from the Conclave, the musical bit that we did
when they.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Were that's right, when they were when they were conclaving.
Speaker 5 (16:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
Uh, and ended up choosing Francis as the new pope,
which is very interesting how that works. Conclave, because you
have a bunch of cardinals running around doing nothing but politicking,
nothing but politicking, and all of a sudden someone is
elected pope and now it's a direct line to Jesus.
It is a singular line, no one can hack it,
(16:57):
and picks up the phone and goes, hey, Jesus, what's
going on today. It's fascinating how that works.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
Have you seen the movie Conclave?
Speaker 4 (17:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (17:05):
Yeah, GeV Yeah, getting together to gloat a bit. California
Attorney General Rob Bonta and eighteen other state attorneys general
of issued a statement after another judge I think that's
been three at least have blocked President Trump's executive order
that tries to get rid of birthrate birthright citizenship. The
(17:30):
message says President Trump may believe he is above the law.
But today's preliminary injunction sends a clear message he is
not a king and he cannot rewrite the Constitution with
the stroke of a pen.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Well, it's not quite rewriting the Constitution.
Speaker 4 (17:43):
It's interpreting the line under the jurisdiction thereof in reference
to the United States, and that can go either way.
The court can say that if parents who are not legal,
they are not under to quote the jurisdiction of the
United States, much like diplomats. Diplomat's kids were born in
(18:03):
Iasais are not citizens. So and much like the court
interpreting the Second Amendment. You know, the militia line is
it disappeared? Disappeared even though it's right there in the Constitution.
So the court go that way, will it? I don't
think so. I don't think so. I think the fourteenth
Amendment is pretty clear cut. But you know, you never
(18:23):
know with this court, you never know with any court.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Actually, well, isn't that why you have verbiage in there?
I mean, why have that clause at all?
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Well, because everything has to be has to be interpreted.
For example, the First Amendment. Okay, how far does that go?
Is pornography covered? The First Amendment, Yes, it is allowed
to do that. Freedom of religion. How far does freedom
of religion go? Does that include prayer in the schools?
Is that prohibited under the First Amendment freedom of religion? Maybe? Maybe?
(18:57):
And the courts have certainly gone that way, saying no
prayer in school, not even a moment of silence. Can't
even have that because that's a violation of the separation
of church estate. So it's all a matter of interpretation.
Is the document a living breathing document. I don't know
how paper breathes. But that's one view. The other view is,
(19:20):
and this is what originalists say, You have to look
at the language of the Constitution, look at the four
corners of the document itself. For example, privacy Roe v. Wade,
and the right to privacy still exists. It came out
of nowhere the court. Blackman actually wrote the opinion, where's
(19:42):
the right to privacy? Scully? You ask, it's not there?
And what Blackman wrote? It exists because of the p
number of the rights. If you put all of it together,
if you look at the ecdoplasm of the Constitution.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
What flows from the Constitution are these rights?
Speaker 4 (20:01):
And the originalists say absolutely not first Amendment, I mean
the right to fourteenth Amendment, right to birthright says right there,
born in the United States, you are a citizen. So
does that help? Of course? Not?
Speaker 3 (20:19):
All right, all right on, moving on, Okay, Elon Musk
can continues to rub people the wrong way. California has
joined more than a dozen other states just yesterday ensuing
the Trump administration over Elon Musk's informal, sort of formal
(20:40):
role as the president's personal budget advisor. And they say
that it's you know, everybody the same word we're going
to be hearing forever unconstitutional, and that he has all
this authority and democracy as we know it is collapsing
because they're actually turning over rocks and saying you paid
how much for what?
Speaker 4 (20:59):
Yeah? I don't know. Oh yeah, but I don't know
if that's unconstitutional because he's doing it on behalf of
the president. You have to be an official of the
government to do that. I don't I don't know. By
the way, when I refer to freedom, separation of church
and state, and you can't pray in school, for example,
that's public schools. It's not private schools. You can pray
(21:20):
all day long if you want in private schools Catholic schools.
Do they do another?
Speaker 2 (21:24):
But do they do anything but praying Catholic schools?
Speaker 3 (21:26):
What another thing that's not in the constitution. Separation of
church and state does not exist in the Constitution. That
term comes from.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
Right, the separate Now the state shall the state shall
not abridge freedom of religion, and that has.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Or pick one as the state or the national religion.
Speaker 4 (21:48):
Yeah, you can't do that. Where in England the term
none of that. We're in England, by the way, there
is a state religion is and the Queen is the
defender of the faith. Although of course all religions can
be practiced in Britain even though there is a state religion.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Yeah, if that was going to cause any problems like
a revolutionary war.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
Yeah yeah. Israel, for example, there's a state religion. Does
Israel allow other religions?
Speaker 2 (22:18):
For example?
Speaker 4 (22:18):
Can Islam be practiced in Israel? Not too many people
do because they're all killed. If they do practice in Israel,
I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
They have mosques in Israel, Yeah they do.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
Now, there's a serious freedom of religion there, so theocracy,
but it is it is an official state religion. All right,
let's go finish up handle on the news with Amy,
Neil and Me and Neil and me is No, I
don't think so.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
I think it's Nils.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
I think it's Nils.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
That doesn't make sense.
Speaker 5 (22:56):
Oh no, but did you do to story seven?
Speaker 4 (23:03):
That's all?
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Yeah, okay, then it's okay. Next, got to do everything
around IRS. The handsome be funny bees marches.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
Still talking about Elon Musk here. Elon Musk is freaking
the Democrats out because he's attempting to overhaul US Agency
for International Development and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and
gain access into the Treasury Department and now has moved
over to the IRS. Oregon Democratic Senator Ron Wyden says
(23:34):
Doge is now with the IRS. That means Musk's henchmen
are in a position to dig through a trove of
data about every taxpayer in America.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
Yeah, and well that's one aspect of it. That's one view.
The other view is going to clean out the IRS
the agents because there are too many of them and
they cost too much money, which I've always wondered how
the government does that. You think they'd be more IRS
agents because they make a lot of money for the government.
(24:05):
I mean that is a profit center, you would think
not necessarily, Okay, Neil, now you Jonah.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
If you I know, if you did not see this,
you have to look it up. A humpback whale briefly
swallows kayaker in Chilean, Patagonia, and it's all captured on camera.
I think by the guy's dad.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
It was yeah, and the guy's dad was calm and
captured the whole thing. I mean it took it was
just a second. You know. The whale swallows him, I
guess by a mistake and then goes phit. I don't
want this. I don't want this person in my mouth.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
But I was thinking about that as a father. I'm like,
what would I have sat there and continued to tape it?
Speaker 4 (24:57):
Yeah, and I can. I aren't.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Aren't humpbacks bayleen whales?
Speaker 5 (25:02):
Yeah, what's that, Baileen?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
You can look it up.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
They eat They eat krill, which are a little tiny,
almost microscopic shrimp, and they're not they're they're not like sharks.
They don't eat chunks out of people, they don't eat mammals,
they don't eat virtually anything. It's a filter, big big miles, Yeah,
huge mouths, and there's a filter there.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Yes, she's looking it up.
Speaker 5 (25:27):
Well, no, I'm watching the video because I actually have
seen humpback whales feeding and they do do that, but
they also eat fish.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
Wow, yeah, you're bound to right, So I don't you
know what, look it up?
Speaker 4 (25:39):
Look it up because I think baileen whales do not
eat fish. They just filter krill. I think they filter
out the fish. I think they do because what a
whales sound like. Most of them are that high pitched
sound they do, humpback whales are. There's a lot of that.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
Okay, So pumpback whales do filter feed on small crustaceans,
mostly krill, and also small fish.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
Okay, they have to be very small fish.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Then they have to be sardinia.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Be like you perceive the rest of your crew.
Speaker 5 (26:13):
Will They do this thing called bubble fishing where they
all hurt around and then they all go down and
they blow bubbles up and it forces the fish up
to the surface and then they come up and open
their mouths like he did for that kayaker and go
and chomp them.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Yeah, dolphins do the same thing. Orcas do the same
thing with their prey.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
Handle, and I do the same thing in a buffet.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
That's absolutely correct.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
Well, at least he spit them out quickly.
Speaker 4 (26:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
It just it was mind blowing because it's like, could
you imagine he would be eating my poop and my
pea because I would be voiding myself.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
Oh that's delightful. All right, I think we have one
more coming up.
Speaker 5 (26:54):
Do you remember getting a good night's sleep?
Speaker 4 (26:57):
No?
Speaker 5 (26:57):
Okay, Well, the number of studies show that's there's an
association between the risk of dementia and sleep.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
AIDS told you.
Speaker 5 (27:05):
Insufficient sleep by itself is also linked to health effects,
heart disease, type two diabetes, memory problems. About eight point
four percent of US adults who report taking medication to
help them sleep the previous month.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
So how do you spell ambient?
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Oh? Handle has a G A give me and M
How do you still take that stuff.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
You put in your mouth?
Speaker 4 (27:31):
I get it and I swallow a little bit of
water and it goes down your throat?
Speaker 3 (27:34):
What? How have you weaned your it is? It is
malpracticed for anybody to give you ambient anymore.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
Yeah. I go to drug dealer and let me tell
you how difficult it is. Drug dealers don't stand on
corners and.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
Go, hey, you want to try some ambient Hey, they
don't do that. Okay, I think we're done, guys.
