Speaker 3 (00:36):
Fabulous?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Yeah? How's Will?
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Oh he's wondering the hallways.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
You know, he tries to scare me now because I
scared him yesterday.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
He scares it everything.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Is he a little bit of a scaredy cat?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Yeah? Yeah, he gets scared easily. Will you walk in
the well?
Speaker 2 (00:54):
It's backs towards everybody? Hey, well, if your backs towards everybody,
you're gonna get scared. Uh yeah, come on, you gotta
have mafia rules. You've always got to face the door. Brother.
That's the problem. That room is very non function when
you get back to the door, it is. It's a
weird ass room. I got it. I totally agree. Weird
(01:20):
ass rooms here at the studio. So yeah, so everybody's here,
but it feels like someone's missing hmmm, and I got
kono and Amy will me and no, we're here alrighty, excellent.
Well let's start with handle on the news, shall we lead? Story?
(01:46):
The best song in the whole world. Now, I'm gonna
have it in my head the whole day, and I
will not it will not be bleeped. I'll be be
singing it without noticing that I'm dropping F bombs everywhere
I go. You know, Liberation Day is today, and is
it just me? One? It's gotten way more commercial than before.
(02:07):
I haven't gotten any of my liberation Yeah, but my
Liberation Date shopping isn't done. I barely got my Liberation
Day tree. Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. All white sales,
are they?
Speaker 4 (02:20):
No?
Speaker 2 (02:22):
So, President, our President Donald Trump is going to unveil
the White House Rose Garden today. What we're expecting to
be this broad based reciprocal tariffs. It's kind of like,
you know, we're rubber and your glue. Whatever you tar
if you throw at us, we throw it back and
(02:42):
it sticks to you. Right? Is that what it is? So?
These are imports as part of America First agenda. He
has labeled this. Our President has labeled this Liberation Day,
claiming that it's going to free us, the US from
dependence on foreign goods. And this the question here is
(03:06):
everything that he ran on the promise of better economy
and things like that, this is going to throw into
a tail spin. But if you're looking at the long game,
it's got to be done. There's got to be pushback,
and with that is going to come discomfort. And I
don't know that we have the fortitude as Americans to
(03:32):
sit through something that's going to take time to get done.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
Especially now because we want everything now. We're so instant
gratificationing that if you look at it, Trump's been in
office for what three months.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Just seventy two days.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
And everybody's like, everything should magically be better. That may
be because he said on day one it's going to
get better.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
They all say that. I get that. You know, it's weird.
You know. So my son's eight and he knows what
Amazon is and that it's about two days to get something.
But to make things worse. I'm a maker. I like
to make things. So now my son I three D print.
So now my son can say and did the other day, Hey,
(04:13):
can you make me a master's sword that glows in
the dark? And about ten inches long. And I'm like, yeah,
you'll have it in about four hours.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
You don't have to say you have to wait till Christmas.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
No, And he did. He had it in four hours.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
That's amazing.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
He was thrilled playing with it in his little fort
in the dark. So, yeah, we're not really good at waiting.
We'll see what this takes. But I'm still regardless of
who you voted for. You know, once somebody's in office,
you've got to let them run their course. They got
to figure out what they're doing. And so far the
(04:53):
guy does get things done, it's it's messy. So I
we got to kind of let it. Let's see how
it runs out there. Speaking of running out amy.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Speaking of running out uh time, Corey Booker, Yeah, did
not run out of things to say. For more than
twenty five hours. It was a lot of talk, talk,
talk talk. The New Jersey Democratic senator took the Senate
floor and it wasn't a filibuster. He just talked in
protest of President Trump's policies and spoke as long as
(05:30):
he was, as he put it, physically able. And it
turns out that was twenty five hours and five minutes
he finished speaking last night and limped off the floor,
setting the record for the longest continuous Senate floor speech.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Limped off the floor.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
That's what the story says.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
What is Jugula attached to is he.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Started to get a little punchy at some points. But
I would you, well, yeah I wouldn't. I mean, I
like to talk, but I wouldn't talk for twenty five
hours straight.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Let's do this show for twenty five hours straight. And
trust me, there's no way I'm leaving this building with
a job. I would get very punchy after all that time.
It took it took Menace from the Woody Show less
time to walk to Disneyland from here yesterday.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Oh yeah, what time did he get there last night?
Speaker 2 (06:17):
It was forty miles Yeah, thirty eight some on miles
or something like that. And I think he got there
around nine ish, nine thirty because I went to bed
around then.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Just in time for California Adventure to close.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Well, his last picture was standing in front of the
Walt and Mickey. Oh there in front of the Oh no,
in front of the castle. Yeah, in front of the castle.
So he got there before it closed. But holy smokes, now,
amb limping off, I'll get but it's like, now that's
saying like if you had a story about Menace walking
(06:52):
to Disneyland, it's like, and he couldn't speak because he
had a sore throat from walking so long. That would
make me question the same.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
I get you. Well, we can thank the Associated Press
for that one.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
That was their verbiage. F The Democratic backed Susan Crawford
wins Wisconsin Supreme Court seat, cementing liberal majority, which was
the goal there. This was a big ticket item because
of that, and you had the defeated the challenger endorsed
(07:27):
by President Donald Trump. Of course, billionaire Elon Musk spent
twenty one million dollars or so to help back him,
and she doubted her victory as a win against the
richest man in the world. That's got to feel good.
I want to go toe to toe the richest man
(07:48):
in the world. Well, not physically. He's built like his truck.
Like we're weird. And have you ever seen that guy
with his shirt off? It's like a broken barrel. That's odd.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Let's not let's not do the personal attacks, shall we?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Oh? Are you kidding? I'm going to add hominem all
over this place. Why he was bald too, got plugs.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Well he can afford it.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Personal tax Oh, don't get all newsy on me, lady.
I do personal attacks. I haven't even started on Kno yet.
Talk about being made of spare parts.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Go ahead, well, the Democrats one in Wisconsin. The Republicans
took Florida, though Republicans Jimmy Patronas and Randy Fine won
special elections to fill two Florida congressional seats. The one
that Patronis won was vacated by former Representative Matt Gates
remember he resigned. Uh, and then the other one was
(08:49):
Fine one for a seat vacated by Mike Walls or
Waltz when he was tapped to become Trump's National security advisor.
So that win puts the republic Can margin two hundred
and twenty to two thirteen in the House of Representatives.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Oh boy, still.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Not much of a margin, no, but better than the
one or two vote margin they had for them.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Yeah. I you know, these these little races that have
big consequences always are looked at like are they unhappy
on one hand in Wisconsin with the seventy two days
or whatever of Trump? Or is this some sort of
(09:34):
state and then you go to Florida and as that
a statement about how people want Republican value. It's well.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Stephen Portnoy with ABC we talked to him, Wake Up,
Call Love him. He was saying that they're watching because
I said, why do we care about what happens in
Florida in Wisconsin? I mean, it's the state Supreme Court
in Wisconsin, and it's the two representatives in Florida. And
he was just saying, like margins are and like where
Trump won by thirty points in Florida, the two candidates
(10:06):
won solidly, but by like ten or fifteen points. So
does that mean that Republican support is waning or that
people don't turn out if Trump's not on the ballot.
So everybody's trying to figure out what exactly the numbers mean,
which is why it's drawing interest.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Val Kilmer, who was a local guy, local guy, talented,
handsome guy, passed away at the age of sixty five.
That seems so damn young. And I know that he's
had issues with cancer back in twenty fourteen. He later recovered.
Have you seen the documentary Val? Anyone? Did you see
(10:43):
okay and saw it? Amy? Did you see Val.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
Putting it on my list. I don't remember if I
did or not.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
It's a must see. I mean it's a little strange
because it's kind of self indulgent, but it's it's so
worth it, and he's kind of fascinating guy and his
spirit and energy and attitude is pretty magical. I was
absolutely a fan. I love some of the kooky stuff,
like you know, top Secret, real genius. I think he
(11:14):
was marvelous as Doc Holiday in Tombstone. Tombstone is one
of those movies I can watch any day, anytime, over
and over again, and still every time I watched it,
I go, man, I love this movie. I just I
think it is one of the best modern day westerns
(11:36):
period and it just is such. I mean, the cast, everything,
but Val Kilmer in that is magical. And I wasn't
crazy about him as Batman, but you know, Michael Keaton
was my Batman and.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
You can be my wingman anytime.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Yeah, and you know Top Gun, I'm sweaty men, not
my thing. But good for you. If you and Cono
enjoyed that, that's all right.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
You didn't love Top Gun. It's one of my favorite
movies ever.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Uh, you know what, and I haven't even seen Maverick,
and I know that's you haven't.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
No, I, oh my god, it's done fine, But it
didn't like it was fabulous.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
It didn't hit me the way it hit I like
all the special effects and the planes and everything big time.
And the soundtrack is fun because you're going into that
danger zone.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
But uh, do you remember The Prince of Egypt?
Speaker 2 (12:31):
I do.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
It was a dream.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
I can't remember which animation studio did it, but it
was the story of Moses, and Val Kilmer played Moses,
and god.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Well you know that Val Kilmer played Moses on stage too.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Oh I did not know that.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Yeah he did. I can't remember. I think I might
have interviewed him for that. He was and I love this.
He played a blurry off camera Elvis in one of
my favorite films, True Romance, which was written by Quentin Tarantino.
I think, but just I don't know. Fabulous guy. It's
(13:07):
such a sad loss.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
And you.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
How Michelle Cube says, you got to see Maverick, even
if it's just for the Val Kilmer part. Okay, I
will watch it.
Speaker 4 (13:21):
Just fabulous. Yeah, but that was his last movie too.
By the way, The last thing he acted in.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
That's sad. It's a sad loss of a guy that
it was so promising and did so many great things
as well. But sad loss. And dude, pneumonia doesn't that
always blow you away? Like you think of pneumonia as
a bad thing, but you've also put it in the
category of like a really bad flu sort of, but
(13:46):
it's not. It can be a killer. Rest in peace.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Trans rites to play, stay in place.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
Lawmakers and Sacramento yesterday rejected two bills that would limit
trans high school athletes participation in women's in girls' sports.
The one of them would require the California Interscholastic Federation
to prohibit any student who sex was assigned mail at
birth from competing on a girl's team, and the other
(14:19):
one would require students to use locker rooms, bathrooms, and
other facilities that match their sex assigned at birth. They
both lost, which was never a surprise.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
You know what's weird if to me, it's like if
somebody goes through the full trans experience. I don't care
about the bathroom thing. I mean if you if you
go through with something to the point where you change
(14:53):
your genitalia, knock yourself out with the bathroom thing. But
the sports thing is they're just physiologically unfair because you
can't change that. Yes, hormones might change muscle mass and
things like that, but it's not going to change bone density.
(15:14):
And you know, there's just things that are different physiologically
and I'm not always you know, and that women get
screwed every single time, every single time, you know, with
all this stuff. Because now you've got young female athletes
that have to compete against biologically structured men. I don't
(15:40):
think they're going to do that in boxing though, I
think that would probably be.
Speaker 5 (15:45):
Well, wouldn't they No, But I mean, like I Meyson
going right, But if the rule is that women, well
you wouldn't put him because they have different weight classes.
Speaker 4 (15:56):
You'd never get in the same weight class as Mike Tyson.
But I mean, but if you were the same weight
class technically, if you're a woman, under this law, you
could compete.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Didn't that happen in the Olympics we saw some of
that maybe or was there questions about whether someone was
a man or a woman.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
There was there was that one Oh gosh, I can't
remember where where she was from. It was somewhere in Europe,
I believe, and they. But there there was the argument
that no, she was she's always been a woman, and
other people were saying, no, I've never been hit like that,
and they backed out of the competition.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
M I'd have to look that up.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
One of them sturdy European women. You never know, careful
what they make, some sturdy, sturdy women. My great grandmother
was like Scottish and Irish and English or something like that.
She was a sturdy woman.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
Guess what mom is?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (16:55):
The warden well mostly German.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
That explains so much. Wh Oh my gosh, that makes
so much sense, all right. Attorney General seeks death penalty
for Luigi Mangioni. Sorry, ladies in the United Healthcare CEO
murder body called Thompson's murder a premeditated and cold blooded assassination.
(17:20):
I don't know how you can argue with that. So
our new Attorney General Pambondi is directing federal prosecutors to
seek the death penalty. And again, I don't know how
you can argue with that. They never found that it
was any specific tie, like even though he had back pain,
(17:41):
that it was he didn't have that insurance. United or right,
there was no real ever any tie there specifically.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
I think they'll expose that in court. All right, Israel
is expanding operations. Israel's defense ministers is a major expansion
of the military operation in Gaza involves seizing large areas
of land that would be incorporated into Israel's security zones.
(18:15):
They said that it would also involve a large scale
evacuation of Gaza's population away from the fighting zones. Israel's
been aerially bombarding the strip since the ceasefire ended.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
US Senate Committee opens review into Meta's efforts to gain
access to China. So this is kind of You've got
senators wanting Meta to disclose these records that they have
that are supposedly fairly extensive, including all company communications, any
records of meetings, any of this with Chinese government officials
(18:54):
since twenty fourteen, apparently, and they want Meta to do
this by April twenty first, the META spokesperson rejected any
claims that anything wonky or what's the word nefarious is
going on, but the senators said that accounts are corroborated
(19:15):
by internal records documenting these efforts. They want to review
these with a subcommittee to see if there is any
issues there.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
The upside to twenty five percent tariffs comes to car companies.
The major car company says sales were up for March.
Most reported double digit gains. Automakers sold nearly one point
six million vehicles in March. That's a thirteen point six
percent increase. Almost all automakers saw a surge in electric vehicles.
(19:50):
And of course the surge in sales comes as twenty
five percent tariffs loom on any autos imported to the US,
and those tariffs going to affect tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
It's going to be interesting to see how that ties
into things. You know. Hearing Shannon, I think it's on
the promo too, and then talking with Shannon from the
Gary and Shannon Show coming up at nine am, she
was saying, but you know, your parts in your car
are made all over the place. These are the things
we still need to get over and having the vast
majority of a vehicle made in the United States and
(20:28):
put together in the United States. And yes, having parts
made in the United States is all separate parts of
the puzzle that need to be put together. But I
will tell you we are now progressing towards as a
maker myself at manufacturing on a bespoke level where you
could get parts and pieces made same day here in
(20:52):
the States. So factories are going to be changing too.
This is all part of the big game of getting
things back here. It's not going to be it's going
to be painful, and we may not have the fortitude
for it. But if you want the strength back in
the US, you got to start somewhere. Let's do the story. Okay,
(21:15):
more than a dozen years after higher fat milk was
stripped from the school meals, this was all supposedly to
slow down obi obesity in American kids, boost their health,
all that stuff. Well, now it's flipping. Now it's flipping.
So the Obama era move to require skim milk and
(21:36):
low fat milk in schools was aimed at cutting kids
consumption of saturated fats, calories, all those things. And now
it's flipping back. And you have people like Senator John
Fetterman from Pennsylvania saying kids need wholesome, nutritious food to
grow strong and stay healthy. Milk is packed with nutrients.
(21:57):
I agree with that. I think whole milk is great.
I don't drink whole milk anymore that, you know, because
it's you know, I'm grown, but I do love it.
We keep whole milk and two percent in the house
for Max, who's a growing boy at the age of eight.
The weird thing is, if you go back prior to this,
(22:19):
you have to ask the question, well, why was it
okay prior? The obesity thing came after the eighties. I
think that obesity came from the fat the low fat fads,
among other things, hormones and stuff like that, and foods.
But I think a lot of it came from the
low fat fads of the late seventies early eighties. We
(22:42):
started eating low fat foods. It jacked with our bodies
and that's why you're seeing it with kids. You didn't
see it prior to that. And trust me, they had
whole milk in schools prior to you know, prior to now.
So it we go through these changes and then we
don't ask the questions, well what has changed to say,
(23:04):
get rid of that whole milk, without going well, what
else has changed? If we were serving whole milk in
schools in the fifties, sixties and seventies, Ah, it's like
school shootings. We've had guns since day one, big ones
so what changed, all right?
Speaker 4 (23:27):
No order in the court. A guy from Riverside County
who was charged with multiple felony accounts of domestic violence
is facing some new charges. It's because the Sheriff's department
says that Ryan Chalifant tried to flee the Riverside County
Hall of Justice after refusing to be handcuffed during his
(23:49):
arraignment hearing a deputy followed him out. Two more deputies
saw him and joined in the chase. All three ended
up injured while trying to apprehend the guy, and they
were taken to a hospital. The Sheriff's office now says
that they will be seeking additional charges against Chalfont as
a result of the incident.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
That sucks. I want to hear about sheriffs can beat
up and stuff, all right. As California continue to wonder
why we suffer so much at the pump, the reality
is you drive up to the pump and it's a pisser.
If you look at those numbers and you go, how
(24:32):
are we knocking on the door of five bucks again?
Wasn't there a point where we were like, man, if
it h's five bucks, we're all gonna riot. It's gonna
be ugly, and now it did and we didn't riot,
and then it's back. Well, guess what, Like everything else
here in California, it's self inflicted, like that boondoggle sitting
(24:55):
out in central California right the train to nowhere. The
this is all taxes. These are all extra fees and taxes.
So you at the USC Marshall School of Business recently
recently publishing a study of California gasoline prices, it's all
(25:15):
the same. It's all the stuff that keeps John Cobalt
up at night. That's why he's got veins going from
the top of his forehead to his throat, and he's
been screaming about this forever. Heard today at one is
because we keep doing this to ourselves, over and over
(25:37):
and over again. No evidence of price gouging, No by
either gas station owners or refiners or the oil producers,
none of that. We keep these environmental regulatory garbage, we
keep upping and upping and oh, this is the summer
(25:59):
blend and this is the winter bland. We're doing it
to ourselves. We are our own worst enemy here in California.
Let me just climb off this soapbox.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
Okay, okay, Amy, thank you. Score one for new moms.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
So nine Republican members of the House, led by new
Mom Representative Anna Paulina Luna, rebelled against Speaker Mike Johnson
and tanked a procedural vote on a measure that would
have required in person voting. There's a push to allow
for proxy voting or remote voting for moms up to
(26:46):
you know, who've just had babies within twelve weeks. And
the Democrats are trying to change the rules. And it
looks like nine Republicans have joined in, and so they
didn't get to get that procedural vote past. And Mike
Johnson said, fine, we're done for the day and gabbled
the session shot or closed or whatever you do when
(27:09):
you gable it over. I don't see a problem with this,
but he says that he thinks it's unconstitutional.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Might be in what way?
Speaker 3 (27:20):
I don't know. I just heard.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
I've heard that as I'm hearing this story, that it
could be unconstitutional.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Isn't that the first argument anybody throws up? It's like, oh,
that's unconstitutional? Oh how because of the Constitution.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
I could see though, where it would lead to a
or could lead to a slippery slope where they're saying, well,
new moms can vote remotely, Well, then why can't we
vote remotely?
Speaker 3 (27:48):
I broke my leg or something like that.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
And then all of a sudden, all the senators are
working remotely, and not senators but representatives. So maybe they
don't want to open that door.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
I don't know what they just say for anybody pregnant
and then oh wow, men can get pregnant now right.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
Well, yeah, if you only did it, if you were pregnant,
then it would be discriminatory against men.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Hmm, well no, men can I have babies?
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Can they?
Speaker 2 (28:14):
That's what I'm told.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Have you seen it?
Speaker 2 (28:17):
Well no, but if you were, if you're trans and
you didn't get your inner parts taken out, think about it.
If you are a woman born biologically a woman, but
you transition to a man, but you still have your
other stuff, you could make a baby.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
In that, just like Arnold Schwarzenegger and ju what was
that is it called? That was the cutest movie.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
It's the baby in the air, get to the top
of you get some whole milk. Uh teaching his little kid.
It's not what's in the ear, it's what's in the
ear all right side, just have developed a device that
can translate thought about speech into spoken word in real time.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
Okay, that's freaky, it's huge.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
But it's crazy, right see. So here's the thing. There
are adaptive devices that will sort of translate, but there's
a delay. You're talking real time now. This new study
described testing the device on a forty seven year old
woman who couldn't speak for eighteen years after a stroke,
(29:29):
and they implanted this in her brain during surgery as
part of a clinical trial, and it converts her intent
to speak into fluent sentences. Just think if you put
this on your wife and said, is everything okay? And
(29:50):
she goes fine, and it goes well, You're not fine.
You leave your underwear all over the place? Are everywhere

Speaker 3 (00:40):
Oh he's wondering the hallways.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
You know, he tries to scare me now because I
scared him yesterday.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
He scares it everything.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Is he a little bit of a scaredy cat?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Yeah? Yeah, he gets scared easily. Will you walk in
the well?
Speaker 2 (00:54):
It's backs towards everybody? Hey, well, if your backs towards everybody,
you're gonna get scared. Uh yeah, come on, you gotta
have mafia rules. You've always got to face the door. Brother.
That's the problem. That room is very non function when
you get back to the door, it is. It's a
weird ass room. I got it. I totally agree. Weird
(01:20):
ass rooms here at the studio. So yeah, so everybody's here,
but it feels like someone's missing hmmm, and I got
kono and Amy will me and no, we're here alrighty, excellent.
Well let's start with handle on the news, shall we lead? Story?
(01:46):
The best song in the whole world. Now, I'm gonna
have it in my head the whole day, and I
will not it will not be bleeped. I'll be be
singing it without noticing that I'm dropping F bombs everywhere
I go. You know, Liberation Day is today, and is
it just me? One? It's gotten way more commercial than before.
(02:07):
I haven't gotten any of my liberation Yeah, but my
Liberation Date shopping isn't done. I barely got my Liberation
Day tree. Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. All white sales,
are they?
Speaker 4 (02:20):
No?
Speaker 2 (02:22):
So, President, our President Donald Trump is going to unveil
the White House Rose Garden today. What we're expecting to
be this broad based reciprocal tariffs. It's kind of like,
you know, we're rubber and your glue. Whatever you tar
if you throw at us, we throw it back and
(02:42):
it sticks to you. Right? Is that what it is? So?
These are imports as part of America First agenda. He
has labeled this. Our President has labeled this Liberation Day,
claiming that it's going to free us, the US from
dependence on foreign goods. And this the question here is
(03:06):
everything that he ran on the promise of better economy
and things like that, this is going to throw into
a tail spin. But if you're looking at the long game,
it's got to be done. There's got to be pushback,
and with that is going to come discomfort. And I
don't know that we have the fortitude as Americans to
(03:32):
sit through something that's going to take time to get done.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
Especially now because we want everything now. We're so instant
gratificationing that if you look at it, Trump's been in
office for what three months.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Just seventy two days.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
And everybody's like, everything should magically be better. That may
be because he said on day one it's going to
get better.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
They all say that. I get that. You know, it's weird.
You know. So my son's eight and he knows what
Amazon is and that it's about two days to get something.
But to make things worse. I'm a maker. I like
to make things. So now my son I three D print.
So now my son can say and did the other day, Hey,
(04:13):
can you make me a master's sword that glows in
the dark? And about ten inches long. And I'm like, yeah,
you'll have it in about four hours.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
You don't have to say you have to wait till Christmas.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
No, And he did. He had it in four hours.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
That's amazing.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
He was thrilled playing with it in his little fort
in the dark. So, yeah, we're not really good at waiting.
We'll see what this takes. But I'm still regardless of
who you voted for. You know, once somebody's in office,
you've got to let them run their course. They got
to figure out what they're doing. And so far the
(04:53):
guy does get things done, it's it's messy. So I
we got to kind of let it. Let's see how
it runs out there. Speaking of running out amy.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Speaking of running out uh time, Corey Booker, Yeah, did
not run out of things to say. For more than
twenty five hours. It was a lot of talk, talk,
talk talk. The New Jersey Democratic senator took the Senate
floor and it wasn't a filibuster. He just talked in
protest of President Trump's policies and spoke as long as
(05:30):
he was, as he put it, physically able. And it
turns out that was twenty five hours and five minutes
he finished speaking last night and limped off the floor,
setting the record for the longest continuous Senate floor speech.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Limped off the floor.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
That's what the story says.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
What is Jugula attached to is he.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Started to get a little punchy at some points. But
I would you, well, yeah I wouldn't. I mean, I
like to talk, but I wouldn't talk for twenty five
hours straight.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Let's do this show for twenty five hours straight. And
trust me, there's no way I'm leaving this building with
a job. I would get very punchy after all that time.
It took it took Menace from the Woody Show less
time to walk to Disneyland from here yesterday.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Oh yeah, what time did he get there last night?
Speaker 2 (06:17):
It was forty miles Yeah, thirty eight some on miles
or something like that. And I think he got there
around nine ish, nine thirty because I went to bed
around then.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Just in time for California Adventure to close.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Well, his last picture was standing in front of the
Walt and Mickey. Oh there in front of the Oh no,
in front of the castle. Yeah, in front of the castle.
So he got there before it closed. But holy smokes, now,
amb limping off, I'll get but it's like, now that's
saying like if you had a story about Menace walking
(06:52):
to Disneyland, it's like, and he couldn't speak because he
had a sore throat from walking so long. That would
make me question the same.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
I get you. Well, we can thank the Associated Press
for that one.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
That was their verbiage. F The Democratic backed Susan Crawford
wins Wisconsin Supreme Court seat, cementing liberal majority, which was
the goal there. This was a big ticket item because
of that, and you had the defeated the challenger endorsed
(07:27):
by President Donald Trump. Of course, billionaire Elon Musk spent
twenty one million dollars or so to help back him,
and she doubted her victory as a win against the
richest man in the world. That's got to feel good.
I want to go toe to toe the richest man
(07:48):
in the world. Well, not physically. He's built like his truck.
Like we're weird. And have you ever seen that guy
with his shirt off? It's like a broken barrel. That's odd.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Let's not let's not do the personal attacks, shall we?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Oh? Are you kidding? I'm going to add hominem all
over this place. Why he was bald too, got plugs.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Well he can afford it.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Personal tax Oh, don't get all newsy on me, lady.
I do personal attacks. I haven't even started on Kno yet.
Talk about being made of spare parts.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Go ahead, well, the Democrats one in Wisconsin. The Republicans
took Florida, though Republicans Jimmy Patronas and Randy Fine won
special elections to fill two Florida congressional seats. The one
that Patronis won was vacated by former Representative Matt Gates
remember he resigned. Uh, and then the other one was
(08:49):
Fine one for a seat vacated by Mike Walls or
Waltz when he was tapped to become Trump's National security advisor.
So that win puts the republic Can margin two hundred
and twenty to two thirteen in the House of Representatives.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Oh boy, still.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Not much of a margin, no, but better than the
one or two vote margin they had for them.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Yeah. I you know, these these little races that have
big consequences always are looked at like are they unhappy
on one hand in Wisconsin with the seventy two days
or whatever of Trump? Or is this some sort of
(09:34):
state and then you go to Florida and as that
a statement about how people want Republican value. It's well.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Stephen Portnoy with ABC we talked to him, Wake Up,
Call Love him. He was saying that they're watching because
I said, why do we care about what happens in
Florida in Wisconsin? I mean, it's the state Supreme Court
in Wisconsin, and it's the two representatives in Florida. And
he was just saying, like margins are and like where
Trump won by thirty points in Florida, the two candidates
(10:06):
won solidly, but by like ten or fifteen points. So
does that mean that Republican support is waning or that
people don't turn out if Trump's not on the ballot.
So everybody's trying to figure out what exactly the numbers mean,
which is why it's drawing interest.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Val Kilmer, who was a local guy, local guy, talented,
handsome guy, passed away at the age of sixty five.
That seems so damn young. And I know that he's
had issues with cancer back in twenty fourteen. He later recovered.
Have you seen the documentary Val? Anyone? Did you see
(10:43):
okay and saw it? Amy? Did you see Val.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
Putting it on my list. I don't remember if I
did or not.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
It's a must see. I mean it's a little strange
because it's kind of self indulgent, but it's it's so
worth it, and he's kind of fascinating guy and his
spirit and energy and attitude is pretty magical. I was
absolutely a fan. I love some of the kooky stuff,
like you know, top Secret, real genius. I think he
(11:14):
was marvelous as Doc Holiday in Tombstone. Tombstone is one
of those movies I can watch any day, anytime, over
and over again, and still every time I watched it,
I go, man, I love this movie. I just I
think it is one of the best modern day westerns
(11:36):
period and it just is such. I mean, the cast, everything,
but Val Kilmer in that is magical. And I wasn't
crazy about him as Batman, but you know, Michael Keaton
was my Batman and.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
You can be my wingman anytime.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Yeah, and you know Top Gun, I'm sweaty men, not
my thing. But good for you. If you and Cono
enjoyed that, that's all right.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
You didn't love Top Gun. It's one of my favorite
movies ever.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Uh, you know what, and I haven't even seen Maverick,
and I know that's you haven't.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
No, I, oh my god, it's done fine, But it
didn't like it was fabulous.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
It didn't hit me the way it hit I like
all the special effects and the planes and everything big time.
And the soundtrack is fun because you're going into that
danger zone.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
But uh, do you remember The Prince of Egypt?
Speaker 2 (12:31):
I do.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
It was a dream.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
I can't remember which animation studio did it, but it
was the story of Moses, and Val Kilmer played Moses,
and god.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
Well you know that Val Kilmer played Moses on stage too.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Oh I did not know that.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Yeah he did. I can't remember. I think I might
have interviewed him for that. He was and I love this.
He played a blurry off camera Elvis in one of
my favorite films, True Romance, which was written by Quentin Tarantino.
I think, but just I don't know. Fabulous guy. It's
(13:07):
such a sad loss.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
And you.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
How Michelle Cube says, you got to see Maverick, even
if it's just for the Val Kilmer part. Okay, I
will watch it.
Speaker 4 (13:21):
Just fabulous. Yeah, but that was his last movie too.
By the way, The last thing he acted in.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
That's sad. It's a sad loss of a guy that
it was so promising and did so many great things
as well. But sad loss. And dude, pneumonia doesn't that
always blow you away? Like you think of pneumonia as
a bad thing, but you've also put it in the
category of like a really bad flu sort of, but
(13:46):
it's not. It can be a killer. Rest in peace.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Trans rites to play, stay in place.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
Lawmakers and Sacramento yesterday rejected two bills that would limit
trans high school athletes participation in women's in girls' sports.
The one of them would require the California Interscholastic Federation
to prohibit any student who sex was assigned mail at
birth from competing on a girl's team, and the other
(14:19):
one would require students to use locker rooms, bathrooms, and
other facilities that match their sex assigned at birth. They
both lost, which was never a surprise.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
You know what's weird if to me, it's like if
somebody goes through the full trans experience. I don't care
about the bathroom thing. I mean if you if you
go through with something to the point where you change
(14:53):
your genitalia, knock yourself out with the bathroom thing. But
the sports thing is they're just physiologically unfair because you
can't change that. Yes, hormones might change muscle mass and
things like that, but it's not going to change bone density.
(15:14):
And you know, there's just things that are different physiologically
and I'm not always you know, and that women get
screwed every single time, every single time, you know, with
all this stuff. Because now you've got young female athletes
that have to compete against biologically structured men. I don't
(15:40):
think they're going to do that in boxing though, I
think that would probably be.
Speaker 5 (15:45):
Well, wouldn't they No, But I mean, like I Meyson
going right, But if the rule is that women, well
you wouldn't put him because they have different weight classes.
Speaker 4 (15:56):
You'd never get in the same weight class as Mike Tyson.
But I mean, but if you were the same weight
class technically, if you're a woman, under this law, you
could compete.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Didn't that happen in the Olympics we saw some of
that maybe or was there questions about whether someone was
a man or a woman.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
There was there was that one Oh gosh, I can't
remember where where she was from. It was somewhere in Europe,
I believe, and they. But there there was the argument
that no, she was she's always been a woman, and
other people were saying, no, I've never been hit like that,
and they backed out of the competition.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
M I'd have to look that up.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
One of them sturdy European women. You never know, careful
what they make, some sturdy, sturdy women. My great grandmother
was like Scottish and Irish and English or something like that.
She was a sturdy woman.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
Guess what mom is?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (16:55):
The warden well mostly German.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
That explains so much. Wh Oh my gosh, that makes
so much sense, all right. Attorney General seeks death penalty
for Luigi Mangioni. Sorry, ladies in the United Healthcare CEO
murder body called Thompson's murder a premeditated and cold blooded assassination.
(17:20):
I don't know how you can argue with that. So
our new Attorney General Pambondi is directing federal prosecutors to
seek the death penalty. And again, I don't know how
you can argue with that. They never found that it
was any specific tie, like even though he had back pain,
(17:41):
that it was he didn't have that insurance. United or right,
there was no real ever any tie there specifically.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
I think they'll expose that in court. All right, Israel
is expanding operations. Israel's defense ministers is a major expansion
of the military operation in Gaza involves seizing large areas
of land that would be incorporated into Israel's security zones.
(18:15):
They said that it would also involve a large scale
evacuation of Gaza's population away from the fighting zones. Israel's
been aerially bombarding the strip since the ceasefire ended.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
US Senate Committee opens review into Meta's efforts to gain
access to China. So this is kind of You've got
senators wanting Meta to disclose these records that they have
that are supposedly fairly extensive, including all company communications, any
records of meetings, any of this with Chinese government officials
(18:54):
since twenty fourteen, apparently, and they want Meta to do
this by April twenty first, the META spokesperson rejected any
claims that anything wonky or what's the word nefarious is
going on, but the senators said that accounts are corroborated
(19:15):
by internal records documenting these efforts. They want to review
these with a subcommittee to see if there is any
issues there.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
The upside to twenty five percent tariffs comes to car companies.
The major car company says sales were up for March.
Most reported double digit gains. Automakers sold nearly one point
six million vehicles in March. That's a thirteen point six
percent increase. Almost all automakers saw a surge in electric vehicles.
(19:50):
And of course the surge in sales comes as twenty
five percent tariffs loom on any autos imported to the US,
and those tariffs going to affect tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
It's going to be interesting to see how that ties
into things. You know. Hearing Shannon, I think it's on
the promo too, and then talking with Shannon from the
Gary and Shannon Show coming up at nine am, she
was saying, but you know, your parts in your car
are made all over the place. These are the things
we still need to get over and having the vast
majority of a vehicle made in the United States and
(20:28):
put together in the United States. And yes, having parts
made in the United States is all separate parts of
the puzzle that need to be put together. But I
will tell you we are now progressing towards as a
maker myself at manufacturing on a bespoke level where you
could get parts and pieces made same day here in
(20:52):
the States. So factories are going to be changing too.
This is all part of the big game of getting
things back here. It's not going to be it's going
to be painful, and we may not have the fortitude
for it. But if you want the strength back in
the US, you got to start somewhere. Let's do the story. Okay,
(21:15):
more than a dozen years after higher fat milk was
stripped from the school meals, this was all supposedly to
slow down obi obesity in American kids, boost their health,
all that stuff. Well, now it's flipping. Now it's flipping.
So the Obama era move to require skim milk and
(21:36):
low fat milk in schools was aimed at cutting kids
consumption of saturated fats, calories, all those things. And now
it's flipping back. And you have people like Senator John
Fetterman from Pennsylvania saying kids need wholesome, nutritious food to
grow strong and stay healthy. Milk is packed with nutrients.
(21:57):
I agree with that. I think whole milk is great.
I don't drink whole milk anymore that, you know, because
it's you know, I'm grown, but I do love it.
We keep whole milk and two percent in the house
for Max, who's a growing boy at the age of eight.
The weird thing is, if you go back prior to this,
(22:19):
you have to ask the question, well, why was it
okay prior? The obesity thing came after the eighties. I
think that obesity came from the fat the low fat fads,
among other things, hormones and stuff like that, and foods.
But I think a lot of it came from the
low fat fads of the late seventies early eighties. We
(22:42):
started eating low fat foods. It jacked with our bodies
and that's why you're seeing it with kids. You didn't
see it prior to that. And trust me, they had
whole milk in schools prior to you know, prior to now.
So it we go through these changes and then we
don't ask the questions, well what has changed to say,
(23:04):
get rid of that whole milk, without going well, what
else has changed? If we were serving whole milk in
schools in the fifties, sixties and seventies, Ah, it's like
school shootings. We've had guns since day one, big ones
so what changed, all right?
Speaker 4 (23:27):
No order in the court. A guy from Riverside County
who was charged with multiple felony accounts of domestic violence
is facing some new charges. It's because the Sheriff's department
says that Ryan Chalifant tried to flee the Riverside County
Hall of Justice after refusing to be handcuffed during his
(23:49):
arraignment hearing a deputy followed him out. Two more deputies
saw him and joined in the chase. All three ended
up injured while trying to apprehend the guy, and they
were taken to a hospital. The Sheriff's office now says
that they will be seeking additional charges against Chalfont as
a result of the incident.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
That sucks. I want to hear about sheriffs can beat
up and stuff, all right. As California continue to wonder
why we suffer so much at the pump, the reality
is you drive up to the pump and it's a pisser.
If you look at those numbers and you go, how
(24:32):
are we knocking on the door of five bucks again?
Wasn't there a point where we were like, man, if
it h's five bucks, we're all gonna riot. It's gonna
be ugly, and now it did and we didn't riot,
and then it's back. Well, guess what, Like everything else
here in California, it's self inflicted, like that boondoggle sitting
(24:55):
out in central California right the train to nowhere. The
this is all taxes. These are all extra fees and taxes.
So you at the USC Marshall School of Business recently
recently publishing a study of California gasoline prices, it's all
(25:15):
the same. It's all the stuff that keeps John Cobalt
up at night. That's why he's got veins going from
the top of his forehead to his throat, and he's
been screaming about this forever. Heard today at one is
because we keep doing this to ourselves, over and over
(25:37):
and over again. No evidence of price gouging, No by
either gas station owners or refiners or the oil producers,
none of that. We keep these environmental regulatory garbage, we
keep upping and upping and oh, this is the summer
(25:59):
blend and this is the winter bland. We're doing it
to ourselves. We are our own worst enemy here in California.
Let me just climb off this soapbox.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
Okay, okay, Amy, thank you. Score one for new moms.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
So nine Republican members of the House, led by new
Mom Representative Anna Paulina Luna, rebelled against Speaker Mike Johnson
and tanked a procedural vote on a measure that would
have required in person voting. There's a push to allow
for proxy voting or remote voting for moms up to
(26:46):
you know, who've just had babies within twelve weeks. And
the Democrats are trying to change the rules. And it
looks like nine Republicans have joined in, and so they
didn't get to get that procedural vote past. And Mike
Johnson said, fine, we're done for the day and gabbled
the session shot or closed or whatever you do when
(27:09):
you gable it over. I don't see a problem with this,
but he says that he thinks it's unconstitutional.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Might be in what way?
Speaker 3 (27:20):
I don't know. I just heard.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
I've heard that as I'm hearing this story, that it
could be unconstitutional.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Isn't that the first argument anybody throws up? It's like, oh,
that's unconstitutional? Oh how because of the Constitution.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
I could see though, where it would lead to a
or could lead to a slippery slope where they're saying, well,
new moms can vote remotely, Well, then why can't we
vote remotely?
Speaker 3 (27:48):
I broke my leg or something like that.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
And then all of a sudden, all the senators are
working remotely, and not senators but representatives. So maybe they
don't want to open that door.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
I don't know what they just say for anybody pregnant
and then oh wow, men can get pregnant now right.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
Well, yeah, if you only did it, if you were pregnant,
then it would be discriminatory against men.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Hmm, well no, men can I have babies?
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Can they?
Speaker 2 (28:14):
That's what I'm told.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Have you seen it?
Speaker 2 (28:17):
Well no, but if you were, if you're trans and
you didn't get your inner parts taken out, think about it.
If you are a woman born biologically a woman, but
you transition to a man, but you still have your
other stuff, you could make a baby.
