Speaker 2 (04:05):
Okay, I'm just.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Surrounded by losers really every time you wake up in
the morning, come to work, that's true.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
All right, Yeah, there's Anne. I said hello to Cono.
Will is not here?
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Is Michael whatever his name is there, Mike Moris. Yeah,
hello by Mike Morris. I still know Bill.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
How are you doing? Yeah, you don't care how. I
don't even know what you look like.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Mike.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
I don't think we've ever have we ever actually met?
Speaker 2 (04:30):
No, we did work.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
Together a long time ago, in the nineties, believe it
or not. I was starting as a traffic reporter. I
think you were just starting your morning show. So it
was a while ago.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Yeah, I started nineteen what, yeah, nineteen ninety one here.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
I remember very vividly that whenever you would throw it
to a traffic person and a traffic person wasn't there,
you got very angry.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
And I think you haven't really changed in that regard.
I wasn't angry. I mean angry that there's no traffic
person there. What didn't sound good? Let's be put it
that way. Never to traffic and nobody was there.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
It never sounds good, right, whenever I know it to anybody,
by the way, you're surprised, Uh, no traffic reporter there.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
And now let's go to can'tfy traffic. No one's there? Okay, No, yeah,
that's great, all right. I was pre lamictal as well.
So I was prelamittl.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
That's true. I was pre liminitked. I even have my
dog now on prozac. Did you know that I have literally.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Put an animal on prozac.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Because the vet wanted the little Izzy on prozac because
he is bouncing all over the place, cannot calm her down.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
And so I went to the VAT and.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
The VAT said, you got you have a dog that's
kind of anxiety ridden. Here's some doggy prozac. By the way,
doggy prozac is regular prozac, and it's I go to Costco,
of course, where I fill my prescriptions, and there it is.
It's uh the name handle right, uh, and it's Isabella.
(06:00):
And you give one just like you know pros act
what the dog for you?
Speaker 2 (06:05):
One for you? Yeah, that's why not? Just let the
dog be the dog. Because the dog nips at the
other dog.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
The dog is jumping up and down constantly, because it's
a dog. No the dog, it's an anxiety ridden dog.
There are dogs that are so mellow, they just are
just hey, what's going on? Hey, things are cool. There
are dogs that just look like they smoked a joint.
My daughter Pamela's dog Kendle is the sweetest dog in
(06:34):
the world. At the Persian Palace, there was a hill. Well,
you were in that house when there was a big right,
it was that big hill and the dog would come
bounding out, and there were coyotes up there, and it
was it got pretty dangerous. All of a sudden we
heard coyotes and this I wasn't there, but they heard coyotes.
(06:56):
And there is Kendal up the top of the hill,
still within the still within the fencing, and there was
a coyote there.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
And Kendall came bounding.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Out again, bounding up and just sat right next to
the coyote, wagging his tail to say hello. Coyote had
no idea what the hell was going on. Dogs do
not go up to coyotes to say hello and to
want to play with them.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
That's your melt. No.
Speaker 5 (07:21):
I've actually seen Bill go into a closet, grab a
bb guden and shoot animals to get out of his yard.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
He was deer o. God, you know, deer are rats.
They're just big rats that eat everything.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
So anyway, they can't do that either. Coyotes are protected.
That's why I can't believe coyotes are protected. Okay, moving on, Uh,
what else has hello to everybody? All right?
Speaker 3 (07:47):
We have a lot going on today to say the least,
said hello to everybody? And what a week last week?
This is only going to be supplanted by what a
week this week? As we start the show, A handle
on the News with Stop Yawning Kono with Amy Neil
and me lead story.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
We start with clearing my throat.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
We start with a federal judge block the Trump administration
from deploying California National Guard or any Guard troops in
Oregon too. I'll talk about more of that later on,
but what the President has said that these cities are
out of control, strangely enough, their democratic cities. They're out
of control, and the federal troops have to go in,
(08:43):
or the nationalized Guard has to go in. Almost universally,
and a matter of fact, I can't think of any
other time when national Guard was not called for by
the governor. The governor asks the president to nationalize the guard.
That's the way it normally is. Well, Trump is bypassing
that governor and local authorities do not want the Guard,
(09:03):
and Trump has unilaterally decided he is sending in the
National Guard because of out of control crime because it's
a war zone, and local authorities saying, what do you
mean war zone? We've got some problems. There is no issue,
but nothing that can't be handled by local law enforcement,
and the President saying nope. Well, as he nationalized in California,
(09:25):
the Trump administration was given a no go on that
one by the Feds, by the court. And then what
Trump did is he took the National Guard and moved
it to Oregon. The California National Guard moved to Oregon.
No one's ever heard of that happening before. And so
all of this is going up through the courts. Of course,
as the president is stretching the envelope of what presidential
(09:48):
power is, I mean, to its fullest extent. We'll see
what happens. He has won in some cases, he has
lost in others. This one is we'll see how far
he can go. As of right now, a federal judge
one has stopped another complaint I that a lot of
people have because you have one judge can just stop
an entire program cold. And this was a Trump appointee,
(10:08):
by the way, who did this. So we'll talk more
about that. That's coming up at seven o'clock.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
A long way to go to get to peace. Delegations
from the US, Israel, Thamas in the Middle Eastern countries
are set to meet in Egypt today for talks that
could pave the way for a ceasefire in Gaza and
the release of hostages. So apparently the parties will be
trying to come to agreements over things like Israeli military
(10:38):
withdrawal lines in Gaza and the names of the high
profile Palestinian prisoners that will be released in exchange for
the remaining forty eight hostages. It's hundreds of Palestinians, President
Trump said in a post on truth Social I am
told the first phase should be completed this week, and
I'm asking everyone to move fast.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
If there is one person that can have enough influence
in this war to stop it, it would be President Trump.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
He probably has the only ability to do that.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
Although it doesn't seem like Hamas is coming to the
table with anything. We've got a twenty point plan and
they said, okay, we'll release the hostages.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
But that's it.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Yeah, yeah, it's not gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
I mean, the Hamas has not agreed to.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
The militarize at all, and you still has not agreed
to give up its governing powers. All it is is
the hostages, and once the hostages are released.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
They have no bargaining power. They have no bargaining power whatsoever, except.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
That in the deal they say that if you lay
down arms, then they're not going after you. And the
ones who are in Katar, the leadership, they can stay there.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Yeah, Israel has not said that. Israel.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
Maybe that's in the peace plan.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
It is, but Hamas is not accepted the peace plan
except one of the provisions. And it's now it's just
question of do they does Hamas cave Israel I think
will stop during the negotiations, will in fact stop the
war the incursion of the indiscriminate bombing.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
I think Israel will maybe not.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Could be that once the hostage is released, Netignano not
Nettiano goes the balls to the wall. And then we
go back to President Trump. If he says okay to
that Gaza is decimated even more than it is now.
If he says no, I think Israel has to cowtown.
I think there is that much influence the president has,
And if peace does break out, it'll be another argument
(12:34):
for no longer the Nobel Peace Prize it would be
renamed the Trump Peace Prize, of which he will be
the first recipient. By the way, I have his face
on the coin on the coin. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Mount Everest, you know, not on my list of things
to do.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
No, awfully impressed when I hear people do such a thing,
but not my cup of tea. Look at it from
the ground. So you have one hundred of trekkers that
go up there. They're having unusual weather, and I got
to imagine that's pretty intense to say, because the weather
up there is.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Intense all the time.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
Right, So you have a bunch of these trekkers going
up the eastern face of Mount Everest there in Tibet.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
And I've been to Tibet. Haven't climbed the mountain.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
Have you seen the mountain?
Speaker 5 (13:21):
Yeah, it's pretty, it's tall. So as of yesterday you
had three hundred and fifty trekkers. They had reached a
small town of Quadang Wu Dang. While contact with the
remaining two hundred plus trekkers been made. They haven't gotten
(13:43):
them yet, but they cleared out snow and they took
care of them, brought them down to where they could
get some warmth and some food and happy campers there.
But they're saying, yet it's unusually even more intense than normal,
and they were just thinking people are going to get
frost bite, it's going to go.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Do you know what's amazing about that is that there
were three hundred and fifty of them. I think of
like little small groups people trekking in the mouths, but
that's three hundred and fifty at the same time.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Yeah, not only let me. Did you know how many
people you've seen photos of or video of the people
that are lined up to summit to go to the summit.
It's like a line at Disneyland in the middle of
the summer. I mean they literally have to take turns
and wait for hours. It's crazy.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
And you know how much money it costs to go
up there for an individual trekker. If you wanted to go,
it's about seventy five thousand dollars per person.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
And you complain about Disneyland, I wouldn't go. I think
it's people are crazy to do that. I mean, oh,
and you die.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
That's oh, that's the other thing I forgot to sell you.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
You end up dying.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
And you get altitude sickness, and you get frostbite and
lose fingers and toes and hands, and you pay a
lot of money for that. See, if you want to
lose your toes, to show you how to do it
for free, you don't have to pay that much money.
So summiting to to Everest is okay, quick factoid. First
person to uh actually summit out Mount Everest when it
(15:13):
happened with who's the name?
Speaker 5 (15:15):
Well, it's you. I'm assuming you're gonna say it's not Hillary.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
Actually it is Hillary, Okay, because I thought that after Hillary.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Yeah it was Hillary Clinton. No, it's correct. Last name.
It was, yes, Sir.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Edmund Hillary New New Zealand, nineteen fifty three. But he
wasn't actually the man to summit.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
That's what I was wondering if you was.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
It's sort of controversial at this point because it could
have been his Sherpa Norgay Tenzig or Tenzig Norgay And enough.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Of that, why don't we go ahead and move on?
Move on?
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Well that was quick. French Prime Minister Sebastian Lakrnou resigned
just hours after he unveiled his new cabinet. The prime
minister has been a key ally of French President Emmanuel Maccron,
whose presidency apparently not going very well. He had only
been in office for like four weeks before he stepped down.
(16:14):
That's the shortest serving prime minister since the Fifth Republic began.
When did the Fifth Republic begin?
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Bill after World War Two?
Speaker 4 (16:23):
I think after World War two. Okay, clear sign yet
that Macrone has run out of road after five prime
ministers in less than two years. He's just not able
to get any traction and get their government running again.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah, the French don't know how to do. They do
a lot of things very well, baguettes and bree cheese,
they do great crapes.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
They don't do government very well. Although if you're a worker,
France is a great place to go. You retire at
the age of thirty three. You work a two and
a half hour day with an hour and a half
of it for lunch. It's really not bad like your schedule.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
It does, doesn't it. It's pretty good, all right.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
I had for a long time got to see Mark
Sanchez play for sc going to the games. He's an
ex quarterback for the NFL as well, and he was
pepper sprayed and stabbed multiple times this weekend by a
sixty nine year old truck driver. This was in downtown Indianapolis.
(17:27):
It's an interesting story. So apparently this box truck was
backing up into you know, an unloading bay kind of alleyway,
and they got into an alter altercation of some kind,
and the sixty year old, sixty nine year old truck
driver said, this guy came at him. It was Sanchez
apparently charging him and trying to get into his car,
(17:50):
and it got ugly. The guy pepper sprayed him and
said that he was still coming at him and he
feared for his life and he stabbed him three times.
And so not only did Mark Sanchez, thirty eight years
old and up in the hospital, he also ended up
getting arrested.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Weird story. It is weird.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
Mucking Mega Bad Bunny hosted Saturday Night Lives season premiere,
and he said he's very happy about being named as
the halftime performer at Super Bowl. He says he thinks
everybody is happy about it, even Fox News, and then
played a montage of Fox hosts saying, hey, Bad Bunny's
(18:34):
my favorite musician. He should be the next president. And
he's saying all of this because there has been a
huge backlash. People are upset that the NFL picked Bad
Bunny to headline the Super Bowl halftime show in February.
Of course Bad Bunny is Puerto Rican and.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Well he's not even American.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Just ask those people, ask the conspiracy folks.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
They don't even have it American there. But he says.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
He's American. No, no, it's not no, no, you're You're
not American.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
You're star.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Why would it be what is not politicized today? Tell
me what is not politicized?
Speaker 2 (19:16):
And you know what? He should give it to them,
And I'll tell you why. Because his name is bad Bunny,
not good Bunny. Good? Were we expecting good? Point? He's
also the whole issue of this bunny issue.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Uh, I mean, realistically, do straight guys call themselves bunny?
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I mean, yeah, give me a breath. I'm he's a
Kendall Jenner. I think the guy.
Speaker 5 (19:41):
Uh, what's the term that you young folks use?
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Pulls tail? He's doing just fine. Handle.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Actually I'm a fan, but I don't want to admit that.
Speaker 5 (19:54):
Okay, moving on, all right, gab Newsom signing a bill
giving eight hundred thousand uber and lyft drivers in California
the right to unionize Good for them. And guess what
by to Uber and Lyft, it's already it cost me
(20:14):
to cot seven and a half miles from my house
to the station on Saturday. We were going out afterwards,
so I took an Uber there so my wife could
pick me up afterwards. And uh, it cost thirty five
dollars plus tip.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Seven and a half miles. Well, they do dynamic pricing,
don't they. So it was Saturday.
Speaker 5 (20:38):
Afternoon, So yeah, Saturday afternoon for one.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
I don't know, you know, how how about how.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
About a taxi? We're going back to being a taxi.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
You know, I don't think it's the Uber driver that's
getting it getting all the money. It's you know, Uber
and Lyft themselves, which is really strange. But they're independent,
they're independent contractors. Yet they can negotiate as a union together,
which it's sort of a contradiction in terms.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
So let's quite understand this. The model will be broken
and then, you know, and then it will be on what.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
Went wrong because it used to be that the drivers
got paid better. And now when I go you hear
the drivers talking about it. They're like, you know, they're
squeezing us to death. They don't make nearly the money
they take. They did more and more.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
You know, when Uber first started, I think five percent
that Uber took something ridiculous like nothing.
Speaker 5 (21:35):
Yeah, but they built the entire infrastructure. I mean that
that app that being able to call a car, being able.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
To know they did, understood, and it's built, and it's built,
and and they're squeezing the drivers more and more and
more they are.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
That was gig economy originally and now it just is it.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Just I you were talk Every time I jump in
an Uber car, I talk to the driver and hopefully
he speaks English most of the time.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
No, And I ask, you know, how what do you do?
Speaker 3 (22:08):
And of course it's the second job for everybody except
those that do this full time. And it's a ten
hour day, seven days a week. Is the only way
you can make a living at it. I mean, what
does that tell you if that's kind of work you have.
Speaker 4 (22:22):
Okay, one of the Hawks is home, which is great news.
So the Harris Hawks were stolen from Sofi Stadium more
than a week ago. And if you'll recall, they were
in their containers in the back of like a gator
type vehicle and somebody took off in the vehicle. It
(22:46):
later turned up near Century City and there is video
of some hawks being released and they've been out flying
around for like a week. Well, somebody spotted one of
them yesterday and Hassi and the Heights called police. Police
called the owner and he came down and retrieved Bubba.
So he's got Bubba back. And then the second hawk
(23:07):
though is Alice. She's still on the loose, but he
says now that they found the one, they're hopeful that
they'll find the other one.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
All right.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
California Institution for Women, this is You've got cal State's
LA prisons system and they have a graduation program and
you just had about almost two dozen women get their
ear their Bachelors of Arts in Liberal studies.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Good for them, No, it's a bachelor's degree out of
cal State LA.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
And to these women who are.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
In prison, which you talk about rehabilitation, that's pretty impressive.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
I think that's the education is key to any of
that stuff. And if somebody shows an initiative to work
towards she.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Was the goal like that, it's a good sign. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
In the valedictorian gave a speech on how now you
can write a some note with proper grammar, which I
thought was pretty impressive.
Speaker 5 (24:03):
Billy Jean King was the one who gave the keynote address.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
Uh, we got a lot of bodies and USC is
selenym USC apparently has sold dozens of cadavers to the
US Navy to use for medical trauma training for Israel
Israeli defense forces. The Navy recort reportedly paid more than
eight hundred and sixty thousand dollars for at least eighty
(24:32):
nine bodies. Thirty two of them were used for IDF training.
So apparently they take the cadavers, they pump them full
of artificial blood, which allows for realistic learning of anatomy
experience and instrumentation handling, and use of actual technical procedures
to treat traumatic injuries.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Well, let me ask this.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
They blow them up if these bodies or that will work,
if these bodies have been donated to whatever organization does this,
Whether you for science, I don't know, because there's some
weird donating your body to science issues where you really
don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
What's where they're going. But that could be completely legitimate.
It's just a it's a weird story.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
But you have someone who donates his or her body
goes to the US Navy, and then the US Navy
turns around and sells parts and pieces and bodies to
the military or uses itself to train Israeli soldiers. I
tell you, I don't see anything particularly wrong with this.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
I really don't, well, except that if they're donating their
bodies to science, then USC is charging hundreds of thousands
of dollars for them.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
File you know, here's it is, don't I donate it
to science and then science can do whatever the hell
it wants.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
And I'm okay with this.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
And by the way, it's I don't think they sell
it to is real.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
What they do is they allow Israeli I guess.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Medical students a medical personnel to work on these bodies
and to practice trauma medicine. I don't see anything particularly
wrong with this.
Speaker 5 (26:17):
Wasn't there a story not too long ago, Amy where
the son of a woman who donated her body to
science he found out they blew it up that they
were doing tests, military tests on it or something.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
He's like, that's not what she thought was going to happen,
or something.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
I don't remember hearing about, like an.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
Organ donor or something, and she ended up you know,
being strapped to a chair or something and blowed up.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
But she don't know once. I don't think it's specific
when you donate your body to science.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
I really don't.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
Let's say you donate a kidney and you've had the
disease that you've.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Had, the poly they just blow up the kidney.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
Yeah, or they use the kidney which is now hard
in the softball games among medical students, And that is
donating your body to science, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (27:08):
Well, yeah, so the polycystic renal disease is benefiting hockey
or football or baseball. Yeah, Okay, tracks been there on
that hill and Big Bear is shaking, rattling and rolling.
They had a couple of earthquakes, two measuring three point
(27:30):
five around eleven pm on Saturday night, and then they
had another one that was three point four, and then
another one that was two point five, so three in all.
But they just kept shaking and shaking and shaking.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
But there's nothing there. I mean, three point five is nothing.
When trucks rumble past the station, it's more of a
jolt than a three point five earthquake.
Speaker 5 (27:56):
Yeah, it didn't trigger any of our security stuff, cameras
or anything.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
Looks like American is gonna look the other way. So
they're American Airlines is trying to speed up the boarding process, which,
as we know if you ever fly, can be very laborious.
So they say that now they are going to remove
those bag sizers from the gates all across the US,
(28:25):
and that's effective today.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
All right here, Question number one, have you ever either
experienced yourself, used them yourself or have seen anybody use
those bag sizers? Because your bags basically have to be
six inches wide and so big and so long, and
everybody's carry on is three times that size.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
I hope that's the question. Have you ever you ever
used one?
Speaker 4 (28:56):
I have, but it was it was during the pandemic
when they really start to cracking down. But since then
I haven't had to check and they haven't asked me.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Hey, i've seen anybody ask because you're never.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
Going to get you actually pretty egregious when they like,
you can tell someone's rolling something big in and then
they'll ask.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
But well, usually is because it won't fit in the overhead.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
That's when they say you've got to check in forget
about these bag sizers.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Okay, moving on.
Speaker 5 (29:32):
All right, Nobel peace, Prize, just like Bill was nominated.
Now if some other folks are nominated, and we'll hear
today the announcement for the twenty twenty five Nobel Peace Prize.
In this particular case, it's going to be physology and medicine.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
They actually announced it.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Oh they are, Yeah, this breaking through.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
Yeah, two Americans are among the three people given the
Nobel Prize for medicine.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
Say yeah, because it goes on all week. It's Monday
through Friday, and the last one, the last one is Friday,
and that one is in Oslo, where all the rest
of them are in Stockholm. And so I think the
best story that is certainly recent story is when Bob
Dylan won the Nobel Prize for Literature, which was extraordinary.
(30:23):
The first songwriter who has ever been nominated, or certainly
the first songwriter ever who had ever won the Nobel
Peace Prize. He didn't show up to accept it, just
wouldn't go No thanks, Why because he's Bob Dylan. Do
you remember Oldchella, Yeah, yeah, it was Oldchella and they
(30:47):
had Bob Dylan there and Paul McCartney and the Rolling Stones.
That were extraordinary. That was on a Friday, or that
was on a Saturday. He had just been awarded the
Nobel Prize for Literature. And this is the gal who
does the pr for the folks who put it on.
And she was telling me that Mick Jagger wanted to
(31:09):
go knock on Paul. Mick Jagger wanted to go on Dylan,
knock on Dylan's door, actually his tent, to walk in
and congratulate him. And Dylan said, now, I'm not interested
in talking to you. This is saying noted Mick Jagger
during the concert. He just does not care. You know,
(31:29):
Dylan does half of his concerts with his back to
the audience.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
He doesn't even look at the audience.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
He's a weird guy who says, well, he accepted the
prize later on the day before it expired. You have
to accept it yourself. But he wouldn't show up to
the ceremony, not interested.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Weird guy.
Speaker 5 (31:47):
Well, you know what the meda, the medicine or the
medical winner last year was for micro rna.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Weird weird winners of the Nobel Prizes just weird ones,
weird one and those who lost or were not given it,
and particularly in literature.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
Is this if this peace deal goes through do you
think Trump will be nominated?
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Oh, he's ominated already, Are you kidding?
Speaker 3 (32:13):
He's nominated by everybody who is a fan of his
or an ally of his.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Will he ever get it?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
No, And even if he deserves it, he'll never get
it because too many people dislike him personally.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
You remember when he got it fantastic.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
For the prize publicly, I think is considered a no
no among the Nobel Committee.
Speaker 5 (32:35):
Yeah, that's pretty tacky. But you remember when Obama got
it for.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
Being elected, for being elected, for being elected, because that
was his claim to fame.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
He had just been elected and he won the Nobel
Peace Prize. Pretty impressives being born. Yeah, all right, kfi
A M sixty.

They lost?
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Okay, I'm just.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Surrounded by losers really every time you wake up in
the morning, come to work, that's true.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
All right, Yeah, there's Anne. I said hello to Cono.
Will is not here?
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Is Michael whatever his name is there, Mike Moris. Yeah,
hello by Mike Morris. I still know Bill.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
How are you doing? Yeah, you don't care how. I
don't even know what you look like.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Mike.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
I don't think we've ever have we ever actually met?
Speaker 2 (04:30):
No, we did work.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
Together a long time ago, in the nineties, believe it
or not. I was starting as a traffic reporter. I
think you were just starting your morning show. So it
was a while ago.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Yeah, I started nineteen what, yeah, nineteen ninety one here.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
I remember very vividly that whenever you would throw it
to a traffic person and a traffic person wasn't there,
you got very angry.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
And I think you haven't really changed in that regard.
I wasn't angry. I mean angry that there's no traffic
person there. What didn't sound good? Let's be put it
that way. Never to traffic and nobody was there.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
It never sounds good, right, whenever I know it to anybody,
by the way, you're surprised, Uh, no traffic reporter there.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
And now let's go to can'tfy traffic. No one's there? Okay, No, yeah,
that's great, all right. I was pre lamictal as well.
So I was prelamittl.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
That's true. I was pre liminitked. I even have my
dog now on prozac. Did you know that I have literally.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Put an animal on prozac.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Because the vet wanted the little Izzy on prozac because
he is bouncing all over the place, cannot calm her down.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
And so I went to the VAT and.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
The VAT said, you got you have a dog that's
kind of anxiety ridden. Here's some doggy prozac. By the way,
doggy prozac is regular prozac, and it's I go to Costco,
of course, where I fill my prescriptions, and there it is.
It's uh the name handle right, uh, and it's Isabella.
(06:00):
And you give one just like you know pros act
what the dog for you?
Speaker 2 (06:05):
One for you? Yeah, that's why not? Just let the
dog be the dog. Because the dog nips at the
other dog.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
The dog is jumping up and down constantly, because it's
a dog. No the dog, it's an anxiety ridden dog.
There are dogs that are so mellow, they just are
just hey, what's going on? Hey, things are cool. There
are dogs that just look like they smoked a joint.
My daughter Pamela's dog Kendle is the sweetest dog in
(06:34):
the world. At the Persian Palace, there was a hill. Well,
you were in that house when there was a big right,
it was that big hill and the dog would come
bounding out, and there were coyotes up there, and it
was it got pretty dangerous. All of a sudden we
heard coyotes and this I wasn't there, but they heard coyotes.
(06:56):
And there is Kendal up the top of the hill,
still within the still within the fencing, and there was
a coyote there.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
And Kendall came bounding.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Out again, bounding up and just sat right next to
the coyote, wagging his tail to say hello. Coyote had
no idea what the hell was going on. Dogs do
not go up to coyotes to say hello and to
want to play with them.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
That's your melt. No.
Speaker 5 (07:21):
I've actually seen Bill go into a closet, grab a
bb guden and shoot animals to get out of his yard.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
He was deer o. God, you know, deer are rats.
They're just big rats that eat everything.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
So anyway, they can't do that either. Coyotes are protected.
That's why I can't believe coyotes are protected. Okay, moving on, Uh,
what else has hello to everybody? All right?
Speaker 3 (07:47):
We have a lot going on today to say the least,
said hello to everybody? And what a week last week?
This is only going to be supplanted by what a
week this week? As we start the show, A handle
on the News with Stop Yawning Kono with Amy Neil
and me lead story.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
We start with clearing my throat.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
We start with a federal judge block the Trump administration
from deploying California National Guard or any Guard troops in
Oregon too. I'll talk about more of that later on,
but what the President has said that these cities are
out of control, strangely enough, their democratic cities. They're out
of control, and the federal troops have to go in,
(08:43):
or the nationalized Guard has to go in. Almost universally,
and a matter of fact, I can't think of any
other time when national Guard was not called for by
the governor. The governor asks the president to nationalize the guard.
That's the way it normally is. Well, Trump is bypassing
that governor and local authorities do not want the Guard,
(09:03):
and Trump has unilaterally decided he is sending in the
National Guard because of out of control crime because it's
a war zone, and local authorities saying, what do you
mean war zone? We've got some problems. There is no issue,
but nothing that can't be handled by local law enforcement,
and the President saying nope. Well, as he nationalized in California,
(09:25):
the Trump administration was given a no go on that
one by the Feds, by the court. And then what
Trump did is he took the National Guard and moved
it to Oregon. The California National Guard moved to Oregon.
No one's ever heard of that happening before. And so
all of this is going up through the courts. Of course,
as the president is stretching the envelope of what presidential
(09:48):
power is, I mean, to its fullest extent. We'll see
what happens. He has won in some cases, he has
lost in others. This one is we'll see how far
he can go. As of right now, a federal judge
one has stopped another complaint I that a lot of
people have because you have one judge can just stop
an entire program cold. And this was a Trump appointee,
(10:08):
by the way, who did this. So we'll talk more
about that. That's coming up at seven o'clock.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
A long way to go to get to peace. Delegations
from the US, Israel, Thamas in the Middle Eastern countries
are set to meet in Egypt today for talks that
could pave the way for a ceasefire in Gaza and
the release of hostages. So apparently the parties will be
trying to come to agreements over things like Israeli military
(10:38):
withdrawal lines in Gaza and the names of the high
profile Palestinian prisoners that will be released in exchange for
the remaining forty eight hostages. It's hundreds of Palestinians, President
Trump said in a post on truth Social I am
told the first phase should be completed this week, and
I'm asking everyone to move fast.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
If there is one person that can have enough influence
in this war to stop it, it would be President Trump.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
He probably has the only ability to do that.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
Although it doesn't seem like Hamas is coming to the
table with anything. We've got a twenty point plan and
they said, okay, we'll release the hostages.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
But that's it.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Yeah, yeah, it's not gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
I mean, the Hamas has not agreed to.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
The militarize at all, and you still has not agreed
to give up its governing powers. All it is is
the hostages, and once the hostages are released.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
They have no bargaining power. They have no bargaining power whatsoever, except.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
That in the deal they say that if you lay
down arms, then they're not going after you. And the
ones who are in Katar, the leadership, they can stay there.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Yeah, Israel has not said that. Israel.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
Maybe that's in the peace plan.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
It is, but Hamas is not accepted the peace plan
except one of the provisions. And it's now it's just
question of do they does Hamas cave Israel I think
will stop during the negotiations, will in fact stop the
war the incursion of the indiscriminate bombing.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
I think Israel will maybe not.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Could be that once the hostage is released, Netignano not
Nettiano goes the balls to the wall. And then we
go back to President Trump. If he says okay to
that Gaza is decimated even more than it is now.
If he says no, I think Israel has to cowtown.
I think there is that much influence the president has,
And if peace does break out, it'll be another argument
(12:34):
for no longer the Nobel Peace Prize it would be
renamed the Trump Peace Prize, of which he will be
the first recipient. By the way, I have his face
on the coin on the coin. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Mount Everest, you know, not on my list of things
to do.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
No, awfully impressed when I hear people do such a thing,
but not my cup of tea. Look at it from
the ground. So you have one hundred of trekkers that
go up there. They're having unusual weather, and I got
to imagine that's pretty intense to say, because the weather
up there is.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Intense all the time.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
Right, So you have a bunch of these trekkers going
up the eastern face of Mount Everest there in Tibet.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
And I've been to Tibet. Haven't climbed the mountain.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
Have you seen the mountain?
Speaker 5 (13:21):
Yeah, it's pretty, it's tall. So as of yesterday you
had three hundred and fifty trekkers. They had reached a
small town of Quadang Wu Dang. While contact with the
remaining two hundred plus trekkers been made. They haven't gotten
(13:43):
them yet, but they cleared out snow and they took
care of them, brought them down to where they could
get some warmth and some food and happy campers there.
But they're saying, yet it's unusually even more intense than normal,
and they were just thinking people are going to get
frost bite, it's going to go.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Do you know what's amazing about that is that there
were three hundred and fifty of them. I think of
like little small groups people trekking in the mouths, but
that's three hundred and fifty at the same time.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Yeah, not only let me. Did you know how many
people you've seen photos of or video of the people
that are lined up to summit to go to the summit.
It's like a line at Disneyland in the middle of
the summer. I mean they literally have to take turns
and wait for hours. It's crazy.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
And you know how much money it costs to go
up there for an individual trekker. If you wanted to go,
it's about seventy five thousand dollars per person.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
And you complain about Disneyland, I wouldn't go. I think
it's people are crazy to do that. I mean, oh,
and you die.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
That's oh, that's the other thing I forgot to sell you.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
You end up dying.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
And you get altitude sickness, and you get frostbite and
lose fingers and toes and hands, and you pay a
lot of money for that. See, if you want to
lose your toes, to show you how to do it
for free, you don't have to pay that much money.
So summiting to to Everest is okay, quick factoid. First
person to uh actually summit out Mount Everest when it
(15:13):
happened with who's the name?
Speaker 5 (15:15):
Well, it's you. I'm assuming you're gonna say it's not Hillary.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
Actually it is Hillary, Okay, because I thought that after Hillary.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Yeah it was Hillary Clinton. No, it's correct. Last name.
It was, yes, Sir.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Edmund Hillary New New Zealand, nineteen fifty three. But he
wasn't actually the man to summit.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
That's what I was wondering if you was.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
It's sort of controversial at this point because it could
have been his Sherpa Norgay Tenzig or Tenzig Norgay And enough.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Of that, why don't we go ahead and move on?
Move on?
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Well that was quick. French Prime Minister Sebastian Lakrnou resigned
just hours after he unveiled his new cabinet. The prime
minister has been a key ally of French President Emmanuel Maccron,
whose presidency apparently not going very well. He had only
been in office for like four weeks before he stepped down.
(16:14):
That's the shortest serving prime minister since the Fifth Republic began.
When did the Fifth Republic begin?
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Bill after World War Two?
Speaker 4 (16:23):
I think after World War two. Okay, clear sign yet
that Macrone has run out of road after five prime
ministers in less than two years. He's just not able
to get any traction and get their government running again.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah, the French don't know how to do. They do
a lot of things very well, baguettes and bree cheese,
they do great crapes.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
They don't do government very well. Although if you're a worker,
France is a great place to go. You retire at
the age of thirty three. You work a two and
a half hour day with an hour and a half
of it for lunch. It's really not bad like your schedule.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
It does, doesn't it. It's pretty good, all right.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
I had for a long time got to see Mark
Sanchez play for sc going to the games. He's an
ex quarterback for the NFL as well, and he was
pepper sprayed and stabbed multiple times this weekend by a
sixty nine year old truck driver. This was in downtown Indianapolis.
(17:27):
It's an interesting story. So apparently this box truck was
backing up into you know, an unloading bay kind of alleyway,
and they got into an alter altercation of some kind,
and the sixty year old, sixty nine year old truck
driver said, this guy came at him. It was Sanchez
apparently charging him and trying to get into his car,
(17:50):
and it got ugly. The guy pepper sprayed him and
said that he was still coming at him and he
feared for his life and he stabbed him three times.
And so not only did Mark Sanchez, thirty eight years
old and up in the hospital, he also ended up
getting arrested.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Weird story. It is weird.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
Mucking Mega Bad Bunny hosted Saturday Night Lives season premiere,
and he said he's very happy about being named as
the halftime performer at Super Bowl. He says he thinks
everybody is happy about it, even Fox News, and then
played a montage of Fox hosts saying, hey, Bad Bunny's
(18:34):
my favorite musician. He should be the next president. And
he's saying all of this because there has been a
huge backlash. People are upset that the NFL picked Bad
Bunny to headline the Super Bowl halftime show in February.
Of course Bad Bunny is Puerto Rican and.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Well he's not even American.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Just ask those people, ask the conspiracy folks.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
They don't even have it American there. But he says.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
He's American. No, no, it's not no, no, you're You're
not American.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
You're star.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Why would it be what is not politicized today? Tell
me what is not politicized?
Speaker 2 (19:16):
And you know what? He should give it to them,
And I'll tell you why. Because his name is bad Bunny,
not good Bunny. Good? Were we expecting good? Point? He's
also the whole issue of this bunny issue.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Uh, I mean, realistically, do straight guys call themselves bunny?
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I mean, yeah, give me a breath. I'm he's a
Kendall Jenner. I think the guy.
Speaker 5 (19:41):
Uh, what's the term that you young folks use?
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Pulls tail? He's doing just fine. Handle.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Actually I'm a fan, but I don't want to admit that.
Speaker 5 (19:54):
Okay, moving on, all right, gab Newsom signing a bill
giving eight hundred thousand uber and lyft drivers in California
the right to unionize Good for them. And guess what
by to Uber and Lyft, it's already it cost me
(20:14):
to cot seven and a half miles from my house
to the station on Saturday. We were going out afterwards,
so I took an Uber there so my wife could
pick me up afterwards. And uh, it cost thirty five
dollars plus tip.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Seven and a half miles. Well, they do dynamic pricing,
don't they. So it was Saturday.
Speaker 5 (20:38):
Afternoon, So yeah, Saturday afternoon for one.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
I don't know, you know, how how about how.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
About a taxi? We're going back to being a taxi.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
You know, I don't think it's the Uber driver that's
getting it getting all the money. It's you know, Uber
and Lyft themselves, which is really strange. But they're independent,
they're independent contractors. Yet they can negotiate as a union together,
which it's sort of a contradiction in terms.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
So let's quite understand this. The model will be broken
and then, you know, and then it will be on what.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
Went wrong because it used to be that the drivers
got paid better. And now when I go you hear
the drivers talking about it. They're like, you know, they're
squeezing us to death. They don't make nearly the money
they take. They did more and more.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
You know, when Uber first started, I think five percent
that Uber took something ridiculous like nothing.
Speaker 5 (21:35):
Yeah, but they built the entire infrastructure. I mean that
that app that being able to call a car, being able.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
To know they did, understood, and it's built, and it's built,
and and they're squeezing the drivers more and more and
more they are.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
That was gig economy originally and now it just is it.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Just I you were talk Every time I jump in
an Uber car, I talk to the driver and hopefully
he speaks English most of the time.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
No, And I ask, you know, how what do you do?
Speaker 3 (22:08):
And of course it's the second job for everybody except
those that do this full time. And it's a ten
hour day, seven days a week. Is the only way
you can make a living at it. I mean, what
does that tell you if that's kind of work you have.
Speaker 4 (22:22):
Okay, one of the Hawks is home, which is great news.
So the Harris Hawks were stolen from Sofi Stadium more
than a week ago. And if you'll recall, they were
in their containers in the back of like a gator
type vehicle and somebody took off in the vehicle. It
(22:46):
later turned up near Century City and there is video
of some hawks being released and they've been out flying
around for like a week. Well, somebody spotted one of
them yesterday and Hassi and the Heights called police. Police
called the owner and he came down and retrieved Bubba.
So he's got Bubba back. And then the second hawk
(23:07):
though is Alice. She's still on the loose, but he
says now that they found the one, they're hopeful that
they'll find the other one.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
All right.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
California Institution for Women, this is You've got cal State's
LA prisons system and they have a graduation program and
you just had about almost two dozen women get their
ear their Bachelors of Arts in Liberal studies.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Good for them, No, it's a bachelor's degree out of
cal State LA.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
And to these women who are.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
In prison, which you talk about rehabilitation, that's pretty impressive.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
I think that's the education is key to any of
that stuff. And if somebody shows an initiative to work
towards she.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Was the goal like that, it's a good sign. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
In the valedictorian gave a speech on how now you
can write a some note with proper grammar, which I
thought was pretty impressive.
Speaker 5 (24:03):
Billy Jean King was the one who gave the keynote address.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
Uh, we got a lot of bodies and USC is
selenym USC apparently has sold dozens of cadavers to the
US Navy to use for medical trauma training for Israel
Israeli defense forces. The Navy recort reportedly paid more than
eight hundred and sixty thousand dollars for at least eighty
(24:32):
nine bodies. Thirty two of them were used for IDF training.
So apparently they take the cadavers, they pump them full
of artificial blood, which allows for realistic learning of anatomy
experience and instrumentation handling, and use of actual technical procedures
to treat traumatic injuries.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Well, let me ask this.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
They blow them up if these bodies or that will work,
if these bodies have been donated to whatever organization does this,
Whether you for science, I don't know, because there's some
weird donating your body to science issues where you really
don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
What's where they're going. But that could be completely legitimate.
It's just a it's a weird story.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
But you have someone who donates his or her body
goes to the US Navy, and then the US Navy
turns around and sells parts and pieces and bodies to
the military or uses itself to train Israeli soldiers. I
tell you, I don't see anything particularly wrong with this.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
I really don't, well, except that if they're donating their
bodies to science, then USC is charging hundreds of thousands
of dollars for them.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
File you know, here's it is, don't I donate it
to science and then science can do whatever the hell
it wants.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
And I'm okay with this.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
And by the way, it's I don't think they sell
it to is real.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
What they do is they allow Israeli I guess.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Medical students a medical personnel to work on these bodies
and to practice trauma medicine. I don't see anything particularly
wrong with this.
Speaker 5 (26:17):
Wasn't there a story not too long ago, Amy where
the son of a woman who donated her body to
science he found out they blew it up that they
were doing tests, military tests on it or something.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
He's like, that's not what she thought was going to happen,
or something.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
I don't remember hearing about, like an.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
Organ donor or something, and she ended up you know,
being strapped to a chair or something and blowed up.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
But she don't know once. I don't think it's specific
when you donate your body to science.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
I really don't.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
Let's say you donate a kidney and you've had the
disease that you've.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Had, the poly they just blow up the kidney.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
Yeah, or they use the kidney which is now hard
in the softball games among medical students, And that is
donating your body to science, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (27:08):
Well, yeah, so the polycystic renal disease is benefiting hockey
or football or baseball. Yeah, Okay, tracks been there on
that hill and Big Bear is shaking, rattling and rolling.
They had a couple of earthquakes, two measuring three point
(27:30):
five around eleven pm on Saturday night, and then they
had another one that was three point four, and then
another one that was two point five, so three in all.
But they just kept shaking and shaking and shaking.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
But there's nothing there. I mean, three point five is nothing.
When trucks rumble past the station, it's more of a
jolt than a three point five earthquake.
Speaker 5 (27:56):
Yeah, it didn't trigger any of our security stuff, cameras
or anything.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
Looks like American is gonna look the other way. So
they're American Airlines is trying to speed up the boarding process, which,
as we know if you ever fly, can be very laborious.
So they say that now they are going to remove
those bag sizers from the gates all across the US,
(28:25):
and that's effective today.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
All right here, Question number one, have you ever either
experienced yourself, used them yourself or have seen anybody use
those bag sizers? Because your bags basically have to be
six inches wide and so big and so long, and
everybody's carry on is three times that size.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
I hope that's the question. Have you ever you ever
used one?
Speaker 4 (28:56):
I have, but it was it was during the pandemic
when they really start to cracking down. But since then
I haven't had to check and they haven't asked me.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Hey, i've seen anybody ask because you're never.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
Going to get you actually pretty egregious when they like,
you can tell someone's rolling something big in and then
they'll ask.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
But well, usually is because it won't fit in the overhead.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
That's when they say you've got to check in forget
about these bag sizers.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Okay, moving on.
Speaker 5 (29:32):
All right, Nobel peace, Prize, just like Bill was nominated.
Now if some other folks are nominated, and we'll hear
today the announcement for the twenty twenty five Nobel Peace Prize.
In this particular case, it's going to be physology and medicine.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
They actually announced it.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Oh they are, Yeah, this breaking through.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
Yeah, two Americans are among the three people given the
Nobel Prize for medicine.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
Say yeah, because it goes on all week. It's Monday
through Friday, and the last one, the last one is Friday,
and that one is in Oslo, where all the rest
of them are in Stockholm. And so I think the
best story that is certainly recent story is when Bob
Dylan won the Nobel Prize for Literature, which was extraordinary.
(30:23):
The first songwriter who has ever been nominated, or certainly
the first songwriter ever who had ever won the Nobel
Peace Prize. He didn't show up to accept it, just
wouldn't go No thanks, Why because he's Bob Dylan. Do
you remember Oldchella, Yeah, yeah, it was Oldchella and they
(30:47):
had Bob Dylan there and Paul McCartney and the Rolling Stones.
That were extraordinary. That was on a Friday, or that
was on a Saturday. He had just been awarded the
Nobel Prize for Literature. And this is the gal who
does the pr for the folks who put it on.
And she was telling me that Mick Jagger wanted to
(31:09):
go knock on Paul. Mick Jagger wanted to go on Dylan,
knock on Dylan's door, actually his tent, to walk in
and congratulate him. And Dylan said, now, I'm not interested
in talking to you. This is saying noted Mick Jagger
during the concert. He just does not care. You know,
(31:29):
Dylan does half of his concerts with his back to
the audience.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
He doesn't even look at the audience.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
He's a weird guy who says, well, he accepted the
prize later on the day before it expired. You have
to accept it yourself. But he wouldn't show up to
the ceremony, not interested.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Weird guy.
Speaker 5 (31:47):
Well, you know what the meda, the medicine or the
medical winner last year was for micro rna.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Weird weird winners of the Nobel Prizes just weird ones,
weird one and those who lost or were not given it,
and particularly in literature.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
Is this if this peace deal goes through do you
think Trump will be nominated?
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Oh, he's ominated already, Are you kidding?
Speaker 3 (32:13):
He's nominated by everybody who is a fan of his
or an ally of his.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Will he ever get it?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
No, And even if he deserves it, he'll never get
it because too many people dislike him personally.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
You remember when he got it fantastic.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
For the prize publicly, I think is considered a no
no among the Nobel Committee.
Speaker 5 (32:35):
Yeah, that's pretty tacky. But you remember when Obama got
it for.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
Being elected, for being elected, for being elected, because that
was his claim to fame.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
He had just been elected and he won the Nobel
Peace Prize. Pretty impressives being born. Yeah, all right, kfi
A M sixty.
