State Northridge. It really is a superb institution of higher learning.
It's called Harvard of the West.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
And now Handle on the news. Ladies and gentlemen, here's
Bill Handle.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
It's Friday.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
It's a foody Friday. It's an ass candle anything Friday.
It's a rainy Friday. It's time to hunker down and
in front of the fireplace. And if you don't have one,
just light a fire in your living room and you
will feel warm and toasty. So good morning everybody.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
In the rain. It has it hit Verbank yet. The rain.
I'm in Orange County today.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
I don't think it's earning. It was dry on my
way in.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
It's a little bit. It's sprinkling, but not bad.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Yeah, And it's going up there first, and then usually
what happens is the storm the weather moves down south.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Yeah. Santa Barbara County has already got like two to
three inches of rain.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Wow, that's tough. That's a lot of rain. It's coming
down really hard. And I'm not a big fan of
the rain.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
I'm really not really. Yeah, I got it.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Yeah, I know, I know we need rain. I understand
we need moisture. But I go outside and it's dry,
and I know it's a rain. I go yo, if listen,
this is why God invented garden hoses. Leave me alone.
We don't need this kind of rain.
Speaker 5 (01:42):
I'd come from somewhere. Why do you so it's just
so lovely?
Speaker 3 (01:47):
No, it's not. It's wet. Well, that's what it is.
It is wet.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
We're going to have a house full of kids because
we're throwing an early birthday party for my boy, and
so a bunch of seven to eight year old is
going to be running around the house because we had
planned it before the rain.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Oh, excellent, all done, All right, quick Collo, Neil Gorning.
Speaker 6 (02:10):
Good morning, Willie Wolf, Happy.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Day, Happy Happy rain Day.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Cono, good morning, good morning, Happy National Pickle Day.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Pickle Day.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Now what kind of pickle? Because there's so many kind
of pickles, new pickles, sweet pickles, dill pickles.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Well, apparently on TikTok, glitter pickles are now a thing.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Glitter pickles. Wow, And how does that work?
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Amy, Well, my understanding is that you dip them in
that edible glitter. I've only heard of using the glitter
in drinks, which to me, it's.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Like gold, you know, ice cream with the gold leaf
on it, edible gold.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
And it's that's kind of weird too.
Speaker 5 (02:55):
You know, it's even weirder is glitter Pickle was Conano's
nickname in prison.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Not bad, not bad?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Okay, good morning, will find that hilarious. Good morning, Will,
Good morning. What does that say on your T shirt?
Speaker 3 (03:12):
There? H Nebraska?
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Nebraska? Okay, you should say Disneyland. I went there last
night just to just to one up Amy. Oh, how
was it? It was great? It was? It was it crowded,
it was okay, it was okay for an off day. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
How long did how long were the lines for smugglers run?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
That was about almost about fifty minutes.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Fifty Oh that's a long time to wait.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
For that ride.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Oh now you're on for wait to say you're waiting
fifty minutes to ride for three minutes pretty much. Now,
if you want a really good fast ride, go to
a building that has a fast elevator. You'll be just fine. Yeah,
you don't wait that long. Same thing about weightlessness, peel, Oh,
I want to go into space and be weightless.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Go into an elevator. Leave me alone. You're a sour pusterday.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Oh no, no, no, I'm me today. Sure, no, I'm
just you know, I just it is Friday. Good morning
to you, and good mon Okay.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Why is today?
Speaker 2 (04:14):
I feel like it's passover. Why is today different than
any other day?
Speaker 3 (04:18):
It is not? It is not. It is the same.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
All right, guys, I got a lot going on. The
big story, of course, is the rain. And we'll do
a little bit of politics, not very much. We have
Hitler News always interesting.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
We enjoy Hitler News, don't we.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
And uh, well, you know what, we may actually even
though there's a Costco story in the Footy Friday segment,
we may actually blow past the Costco story.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Woe.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
We'll probably put now, we'll probably put it in. We'll
probably put it in.
Speaker 6 (04:49):
We are talking about what do you mean the Costco story?
These are put in there for you.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
I understand that. But what I'm saying is maybe we're overdoing.
Not that this show overdes leaders love it. How do
you know, because they tell me.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Yeah, that's the other thing. One listener tells you.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
This is one of the things A little inside Baseball here,
boys and girls. All right, since most listeners do not
write in and the only ones that do email us
or deal with it are people that hate us.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
All right, people that like us.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Put it this way, negative feelings are much stronger than
positive feelings.
Speaker 6 (05:28):
So you get so much mail?
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Yes, exactly. So let me ask this.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
There was a time that does not anymore that one
negative letter represented how many people listening to the show.
Speaker 6 (05:41):
Roughly one hundred back in the day.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
Just one hundred. Yeah, I thought it was one hundred thousand.
One letter was one hundred a million people.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
Hold on, let's just make this quick hate Hey, Kno,
what's the most listened to downloaded podcast segment of the
Bill Handles Show.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
That would be Foody Friday?
Speaker 6 (06:04):
Okay, so really people have spoken?
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Is that true? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (06:09):
It's every month.
Speaker 6 (06:10):
The top three are usually the FOODI free.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Wow. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
So I think we learned something and an apology is
due to me. Wow, I'll take I'd rather have an
apology from the BBC. All right, let's move on, guys.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
It is time for Handle on the News with Amy
Neil and Me lead story, and it is the rain.
All southern California under severe weather threat. It has not
yet hit Burbank. It has not yet hit Orange County,
where I happen to be today. But as Amy said,
Santa Barbara has already gotten two and a half inches
(06:50):
of rain.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
I mean that is not good news.
Speaker 5 (06:55):
Because it's okay, excuse me, Hope Oprah is okay?
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Isn't she got that way? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Yeah, monacido ish. So we'll be doing more about that,
and you'll be on the news, your news segments, you'll
be talking about.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
The rain most of the morning. I'm assuming, right, yes, okay, moving.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
On absolutely, so sorry, please don't sue. The BBC has
apologized to President Trump over a misleading edit of his
speech from January sixth, right before the Capitol riot. But
the bb says said we didn't defame you. Because Trump
is threatening a one billion dollar lawsuit, the BBC chair
(07:37):
sent a personal letter to the White House. They say
there are no plans to re broadcast the documentary either,
and it did have parts spiced together from his speech
that were about an hour apart.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Oh yeah, they absolutely whether it's defamation or not, they
absolutely screwed the pooch on this one.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
It really I watched the edits, I watched what Yeah,
really happened, and then how it was edited, and I
was like, holy cow.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Yeah, and for the BBC, which used to have a
reputation of being objective and fair, not so good news.
But in the end, is that enough an apology? We
won't do it again. Sorry, Nope, I want a billion dollars.
Speaker 5 (08:20):
They should just put like a clock that spins between
to let it no time has passed, or an ellipses
with like twelve dots.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I don't think defamation is going to fly on this one,
but we'll see.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
It's a threat.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
And by the way, Donald Trump's threats are not idle threats.
Well they may be idle threats, but the various news
outlets take them very seriously. Read ABC, CBS paramount.
Speaker 5 (08:48):
Maybe he'll set it just for the crown. All right,
So the Justice Department is suing to block California's US
house maps, and we kind of saw this come in.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
Right, going to happen.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
This is all because it could tip the control of Congress.
That is freaking conservatives out. Of course, the kaploite filed
here in California in our federal court. It's kind of
targeting that congressional map. This was prop fifty that was
highly voted for here in California, Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom,
(09:24):
Newsom and White House Hopeful, I believe, said it was
in response to a similar Republican led effort.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
It was a response to what Texas did.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Texas did it based on what the President wanted Texas
to do. Look at the hypocrisy here. It is stunning.
It is breath taking. The hypocrisy. Texas revamps, it's congressional map.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
That's okay with a Justice department.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Why because Republicans California, on the other hand, because it's democratic,
therefore it is illegal. And their argument, their legal argument,
makes no sense whatsoever. Because what the Republicans the Department
of Justice are saying that the independent commission that was
established by law in California has now been undone by
(10:14):
law in California. And what the Department of Justice said,
you can pass legislation that sets up an independent commission,
but you can't do a.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Proposition that goes the other way.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Propositions are illegal unless we agree with them. Stunning, just
absolutely stunning. Why don't you bitch about Texas because Texas,
Texas is a different place. It's totally different, right, Well,
it is a different place. So anyway, it's just it's everything's.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
So blatant these days.
Speaker 6 (10:46):
Well, they're a judicial order involved in Texas at all.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
No, it was a legislature that did it, and they're
allowed to do it legally in Texas and in California,
the legislature was not allowed to read this rage until Prop.
Fifty was passed, and now the legislature is allowed to
do it.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
And they're challenging the way they did it. They're saying
that they used racial that it was discriminatory because they
were focusing on Hispanic voters. That's what the lawsuit says.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
It's it's doesn't make any sense because Texas did exactly
the same thing, and it's it's it's a verdict that.
In other words, they're saying that the politics they didn't
do it based on politics. Think about this for a moment.
It's not really a democratic or Republican move. It really
isn't politics. It's all about racism or racial differentiation.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Do you buy that? Does anybody buy that?
Speaker 4 (11:47):
But that's what the lawsuit says.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Yeah, it's going to.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Go no place and no hypocrisy is stunning, And why
didn't Texas do the same thing, because that's the way
it works, is that African Americans are genuinely democrats, Hispanics
to a lesser degree.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
And it's.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Doesn't make any sense. And by the way, Turney General
Pam Bondi says, the redistricting scheme is a brazen power
grab that tramples on civil rights and mocks the democratic process. Really,
propositions in California trample on the democratic process. Therefore we
(12:27):
shouldn't have propositions. It just I don't get it.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
All right, Show Hey, Otani sure likes winning things. Not
only did he just score back to back World Series,
he's now a back to back MVP. The two way
Star for a second season in a row, won the
National League's Most Valuable Player award. It was a unanimous decision.
Only Barry Bonds has more MVPs than Show Hey. He's
(12:51):
got four so far and he's only thirty one. Sing
about that.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
Not much more to say except I have a question.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Yeah, has an interpreter with him, He hangs out with interpreter.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
How good is his English? I heard a little bit
of his English during the parade during the celebration.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
So what I've heard because I haven't had a conversation
with him, but I've heard that he's pretty good, but
he uses the interpreter during interviews because he doesn't want
to screw it up.
Speaker 5 (13:19):
Okay, fair enough, all right, So the US has proposed
with everything going on in Gaza and the war and
the battle fatigue of everything, the building, structure, infrastructure, everything's
gone right. So the US comes and says, this is
(13:40):
what we'll do, the Board of Peace, and this will
be a group that oversees the rebuilding and all of
these things, temporarily governing the territory. Well, since this is
going through the UN Security Council, you have the Chinese
and the Russians who are Vito Wilding wielding member.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Of the UN. So it's not going to happen.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
So they said, they said no because the Chinese and
the Russians know what's best.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
Yeah, conversation's over.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
With any of the Big Five having complete veto power,
the UN is basically a non entity. It really isn't
the only thing it's good about being a UN members
you don't have to worry about parking tickets in New
York because you have immunity.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
That's basically it.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
Big win for Bezos did you see this? Yes, spectacular.
The Blue Origin launched its new Glen rocket from Cape
Canaveral on board couple of NASA probes that are headed
towards Mars, although they don't get there until twenty twenty seven.
But the launch was absolutely astounding yesterday. And not only
(14:53):
did they successfully launch this massive rocket, they also landed
it back on the platform. And the SpaceX does it
all the time. Bezos' company hadn't done it yet and
it was just their second try, and they landed on
a platform six hundred kilometers out off the coast in
the ocean. It was spectacular, pressive, spectacular.
Speaker 5 (15:12):
And that's the one that looks like a big rank
that looks like what.
Speaker 6 (15:16):
Like like a phallis.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
No, they all looked like They all look like that.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
They all look like that, And it depends on which
companies some like some look like circumcised and some look
like uncircumcised, depending on which company.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
Well, anyway, it was a big accomplishment for Bezos.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
It was very cool science.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
Yeah, all right, More strikes killing drug boats. Apparently the
Pentagon conducted its twentieth strike on one of these alleged
drug trafficking boats earlier this week, so says the Defense Department.
The strike occurred in the Caribbean, once again for Narco
teararists were killed, no survivors. Of course, the Trump administration
(16:05):
officials have acknowledged that they don't necessarily know the exact
identities of the individuals, but apparently there is technology that
can from a distance know if there's the presence of
large amounts of drugs.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Oh, I don't think anybody doubts that there are plenty
of drugs aboard those boats. I mean there are cigarette
boats they call them. That they fly along at eighty
miles per hour and that's all they're good for, and
you can actually see the drugs. The issue is the
people that are driving those boats that are considered narco
(16:40):
terrorists by our Defense Department or our War Department.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
It is now and I believe this that these are.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Just fishermen and they're citizens that live in these poor villages,
these seaside villages that the Narco terrorists are saying, you're
going to go or they offer them five hundred or
one thousand dollars to do this, and these people are impoverished,
I mean, they can't feed their families and that is
the issue is that the ones that are being targeted,
(17:12):
I mean the ships are being targeted or the boats,
which I'm fine with that. It used to be just interdictions,
coast Guard, the services would go out there and just
stop them and then arrest them and confiscate the drugs
and now you die. And the cost of going after them.
I mean, you know it's aircraft carriers and these huge
(17:33):
drones that cost the fortune.
Speaker 5 (17:36):
I would imagine that it's not just about the boats.
It's about setting a precedent in a way that will
hopefully strike fear. That's what roism is.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Noh, I have no doubt. I have no doubt about that.
But who get gets caught in the middle. You can't
call people who are not narco traffic candes, narco traffic cantes.
Speaker 5 (17:54):
Well, especially what about if they're doing that with you know,
carrying drugs and just using people. They still get arrested
if you're a drug carrier.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
And that's the point is it used to be people
people who did this were arrested when there the interdiction happened.
They were not blown out of the water. That's I
think the controversy. Let's say Imbrie Cartel's Baby.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
Sad Day for ABC of Award winning journalist Jim Avila.
He was a senior correspondent for ABC News, a host
of twenty twenty or a correspondent for twenty twenty. Worked
for ABC for seventeen years. He just died after a
long illness. Jim Avila was sixty nine. He apparently died
(18:38):
Wednesday at his home in San Diego.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Not much to say about that. Gummy shame, Yeah, it
is a shame for sure.
Speaker 5 (18:50):
THC gummies, drinks and things like that are under looking
down the barrel of a ban. You've got a spending bill,
and this tiny little provision kind of tucked in this
federal spending bill signed by President Trump could upend the
THHC industry. So they're they're allowed to put zero point
(19:14):
four milligrams of THHC per container in things like gummies
and beverage, even topical pain relief.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
That's absolutely nothing in the world of THC. I have
no clue.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Well, I'm not an expert at it, but it's for
those people that do take gummies regularly. I don't want
to mention any names, Lindsay and they're.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
Wait a second, are those the same as these, or
are there because I've heard some people say they couldn't
need a whole gummy.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
They would It depends. It depends on how strong the
gummy is. So these are like skittles. Oh I could.
I don't know. I'd be afraid of that's that's because
of her pain thing.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Because in many cases, THC helps with a lot of
medical issues. Glaucoma, for example, has been forever. It helps
cancer patients, for example, regain their.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Regain their ability to eat. Oh, I thought about it.
Speaker 5 (20:16):
It was illegal when my dad was dying and he contemplated,
you know, no, it brings up but so that.
Speaker 6 (20:23):
That may upend a lot of that. We'll see how
that turns out.
Speaker 4 (20:28):
Overestimated, maybe just a little bit. So there's a judge
who is looking over all the money that's been spent
on homelessness in Los Angeles, and apparently there's a shelter.
It's part of Project Home Key. It was reported that
there were eighty eight beds in that shelter, but then
(20:51):
an inspector went and checked and only found forty four.
So half the rest are just empty platforms. The judge
David oh Harder, during a court hearing on Wednesday, says
I send a little fraud, and he criticized the city
for what he says he perceives as a lack of
curiosity over a huge discrepancy like this.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Yeah, how about the suggestion is fraud all over the place. Now,
when you think of homeless shelter, you think of buildings, right,
you think of facilities. This homeless shelter are tents and
in those tents are these beds. But half of those
they don't Those beds don't exist. And this is a
(21:35):
contract that this homeless shelter I has with I think
it's the city of La.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Nobody's watching two point three.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Million dollar contract to provide eighty eight beds and as.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
So much money half or not there so much money,
which is why diet a union rescue mission.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Yes, yeah, they actually hurt around for a very long
time and they don't pet people into are accountable, all right,
So you go ahead one more and then when in
a bail and it's about the math, not mathing.
Speaker 5 (22:09):
California high school graduation rate is up to eighty seven
point five percent. The Hyacinths twenty seventeen. Yay, we're celebrating.
More people are graduating. However, you compare that with the
over fifty percent of graduates not meeting college or career
(22:30):
readiness standards, meaning the basics.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
So what does that tell you? What does that tell
you straight out.
Speaker 5 (22:37):
That we're giving people, we're graduating people that are not
equipped with.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
That is exactly correct, yeat.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
The requirements to graduate are dropping, dropping, dropping. When I
went to high school, they would fail you. You didn't
graduate unless you made quote the grade, unless you know.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
I almost didn't graduate. Now it's impossible not to graduate.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Well, if you're willing to, if you're willing to sit
in college, if you're willing to exactly, if you're willing
to stay in school, you're graduating. What's it.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
You're done and you become a high school graduate.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
It's like a participation trophy.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Yes, exactly, yes, well said.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
Every wonder why we're seeing so many bears and lions
and run ins figers, well not tiger's luckily. Researchers in
California say it's because of climate change. They say an
increase in human wildlife conflict due to prolonged climate exacerbated
drought conditions. They say that when the weather's really dry,
(23:41):
then there are more interactions between especially mountain lions, coyotes, bobcats,
and people.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Human wildlife interactions is basically a euphemism for people getting
eaten by these animals.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
That's the bottom line.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
Well, like there was the parking Orange County last week
where there was a couple of mountain lions sightings and
they were saying that one mountain lion was stalking a
couple of bicyclists.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
Mountain lions are not fine.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
I mean when you have bobcats, right, those yeah, those
are fun there. I've seen a couple of them and
they are the size of a medium sized dog and they're,
you know, kind of cute and fine.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Mountain lions. No, No, your breakfast for a mountain lion.
Here's a crap out of me.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
All righty, Fanny May officials, This is a little weird,
but it's they're kind of doing an investigation here.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
You've got Bill Pollute. Is that pronounce his name? I
think it's Pulta Pulte.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
He's the Trump administration's top housing regulator. But they're they're
looking at this kind of confidential mortgage pricing data going
back and forth between Fanny May to a principal competitor.
And the only reason this would be going back in,
the reason why it's setting off alarms is.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
That this could cause colluding and.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Collusion because you've got you've got Freddie Mack, you've got
Fanny Made. These are separate organizations. And the art and
the accusation here is he took information from one and
gave it to the other.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
And that would be which is unknown? Right, I saw
a price fixed. It's just for racious information.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
It's like, well, here's the analogy secret bids, right, you
tell what you're bidding, is uh, and the person taking
the bids actually sneaks the bidding information to a competitor.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
I think that's the analogy here.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
And Camelot lives. Jack Schlossberg, he's going to have to
change his name is the grandson of former President John F.
Kennedy has announced that he is running for Congress in
twenty twenty six. He's actually going after Representative Jerry Nadler seat,
which is New York's twelfth congressional district, because Nadler announced
(26:04):
earlier this year that he is not running for reelection.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
And Nadler is a real power in the House.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
I mean, he's part of leadership, or at least in
the upper upper echelons of the powerful Congress people. So
we'll see how he does, my guests, he's probably gonna win.
And then finally, Oh, what a story this one is.
Speaker 5 (26:25):
Oh so Lady Gaga revealed she experienced a psychotic breakdown.
Strangely enough, and she's thirty nine year old years old,
but strangely enough, it came like during a massive high
point when she was doing A Star Is Born and
her song was in the category for Oscar, which she won,
(26:49):
but she was on lithium and apparently she has called
off a couple of concerts and things like that, and
she was in a really scary place. This comes from
a Rolling Stone interview. She's since come out of that
and feels that she is a healthy, whole person. But
can you imagine the pressure of being having that kind
(27:11):
of talent and everybody staring at you and all those things,
And we kind of think, well.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
They're used to being stared at, I mean, rock stars,
you know, they sort of revel in this for the
most part. But that's that's kind of interesting that she
admitted that, I mean, good for her. Also, anytime we
mentioned A Star is Born, I, of course I have
to interject with that A Star is Born is also
the most popular film in Sweden, always has been, and
(27:38):
there it's called A Star is Bjorn. I have to
do that every single time. I cannot control myself.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
How come I don't know that one? After thirty years.
Speaker 5 (27:49):
I've heard every job, all three of your jokes, your word,
over and over.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
God, that one I don't know that I've heard. Wow, Okay,
those times.
Speaker 6 (28:00):
With Rex the Wonderhorse.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Okay, this is KF I am sixty. You've been listening
to the Bill Handle Show.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
Catch my show Monday through Friday, six am to nine am,
and anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM

Speaker 2 (00:11):
This is, by the way, I'm just kidding about cal
State Northridge. It really is a superb institution of higher learning.
It's called Harvard of the West.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
And now Handle on the news. Ladies and gentlemen, here's
Bill Handle.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
It's Friday.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
It's a foody Friday. It's an ass candle anything Friday.
It's a rainy Friday. It's time to hunker down and
in front of the fireplace. And if you don't have one,
just light a fire in your living room and you
will feel warm and toasty. So good morning everybody.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
In the rain. It has it hit Verbank yet. The rain.
I'm in Orange County today.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
I don't think it's earning. It was dry on my
way in.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
It's a little bit. It's sprinkling, but not bad.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Yeah, And it's going up there first, and then usually
what happens is the storm the weather moves down south.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Yeah. Santa Barbara County has already got like two to
three inches of rain.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Wow, that's tough. That's a lot of rain. It's coming
down really hard. And I'm not a big fan of
the rain.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
I'm really not really. Yeah, I got it.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Yeah, I know, I know we need rain. I understand
we need moisture. But I go outside and it's dry,
and I know it's a rain. I go yo, if listen,
this is why God invented garden hoses. Leave me alone.
We don't need this kind of rain.
Speaker 5 (01:42):
I'd come from somewhere. Why do you so it's just
so lovely?
Speaker 3 (01:47):
No, it's not. It's wet. Well, that's what it is.
It is wet.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
We're going to have a house full of kids because
we're throwing an early birthday party for my boy, and
so a bunch of seven to eight year old is
going to be running around the house because we had
planned it before the rain.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Oh, excellent, all done, All right, quick Collo, Neil Gorning.
Speaker 6 (02:10):
Good morning, Willie Wolf, Happy.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Day, Happy Happy rain Day.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Cono, good morning, good morning, Happy National Pickle Day.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Pickle Day.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Now what kind of pickle? Because there's so many kind
of pickles, new pickles, sweet pickles, dill pickles.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Well, apparently on TikTok, glitter pickles are now a thing.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Glitter pickles. Wow, And how does that work?
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Amy, Well, my understanding is that you dip them in
that edible glitter. I've only heard of using the glitter
in drinks, which to me, it's.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Like gold, you know, ice cream with the gold leaf
on it, edible gold.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
And it's that's kind of weird too.
Speaker 5 (02:55):
You know, it's even weirder is glitter Pickle was Conano's
nickname in prison.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Not bad, not bad?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Okay, good morning, will find that hilarious. Good morning, Will,
Good morning. What does that say on your T shirt?
Speaker 3 (03:12):
There? H Nebraska?
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Nebraska? Okay, you should say Disneyland. I went there last
night just to just to one up Amy. Oh, how
was it? It was great? It was? It was it crowded,
it was okay, it was okay for an off day. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
How long did how long were the lines for smugglers run?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
That was about almost about fifty minutes.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Fifty Oh that's a long time to wait.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
For that ride.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Oh now you're on for wait to say you're waiting
fifty minutes to ride for three minutes pretty much. Now,
if you want a really good fast ride, go to
a building that has a fast elevator. You'll be just fine. Yeah,
you don't wait that long. Same thing about weightlessness, peel, Oh,
I want to go into space and be weightless.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Go into an elevator. Leave me alone. You're a sour pusterday.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Oh no, no, no, I'm me today. Sure, no, I'm
just you know, I just it is Friday. Good morning
to you, and good mon Okay.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Why is today?
Speaker 2 (04:14):
I feel like it's passover. Why is today different than
any other day?
Speaker 3 (04:18):
It is not? It is not. It is the same.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
All right, guys, I got a lot going on. The
big story, of course, is the rain. And we'll do
a little bit of politics, not very much. We have
Hitler News always interesting.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
We enjoy Hitler News, don't we.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
And uh, well, you know what, we may actually even
though there's a Costco story in the Footy Friday segment,
we may actually blow past the Costco story.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Woe.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
We'll probably put now, we'll probably put it in. We'll
probably put it in.
Speaker 6 (04:49):
We are talking about what do you mean the Costco story?
These are put in there for you.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
I understand that. But what I'm saying is maybe we're overdoing.
Not that this show overdes leaders love it. How do
you know, because they tell me.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Yeah, that's the other thing. One listener tells you.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
This is one of the things A little inside Baseball here,
boys and girls. All right, since most listeners do not
write in and the only ones that do email us
or deal with it are people that hate us.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
All right, people that like us.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Put it this way, negative feelings are much stronger than
positive feelings.
Speaker 6 (05:28):
So you get so much mail?
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Yes, exactly. So let me ask this.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
There was a time that does not anymore that one
negative letter represented how many people listening to the show.
Speaker 6 (05:41):
Roughly one hundred back in the day.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
Just one hundred. Yeah, I thought it was one hundred thousand.
One letter was one hundred a million people.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
Hold on, let's just make this quick hate Hey, Kno,
what's the most listened to downloaded podcast segment of the
Bill Handles Show.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
That would be Foody Friday?
Speaker 6 (06:04):
Okay, so really people have spoken?
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Is that true? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (06:09):
It's every month.
Speaker 6 (06:10):
The top three are usually the FOODI free.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Wow. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
So I think we learned something and an apology is
due to me. Wow, I'll take I'd rather have an
apology from the BBC. All right, let's move on, guys.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
It is time for Handle on the News with Amy
Neil and Me lead story, and it is the rain.
All southern California under severe weather threat. It has not
yet hit Burbank. It has not yet hit Orange County,
where I happen to be today. But as Amy said,
Santa Barbara has already gotten two and a half inches
(06:50):
of rain.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
I mean that is not good news.
Speaker 5 (06:55):
Because it's okay, excuse me, Hope Oprah is okay?
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Isn't she got that way? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Yeah, monacido ish. So we'll be doing more about that,
and you'll be on the news, your news segments, you'll
be talking about.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
The rain most of the morning. I'm assuming, right, yes, okay, moving.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
On absolutely, so sorry, please don't sue. The BBC has
apologized to President Trump over a misleading edit of his
speech from January sixth, right before the Capitol riot. But
the bb says said we didn't defame you. Because Trump
is threatening a one billion dollar lawsuit, the BBC chair
(07:37):
sent a personal letter to the White House. They say
there are no plans to re broadcast the documentary either,
and it did have parts spiced together from his speech
that were about an hour apart.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Oh yeah, they absolutely whether it's defamation or not, they
absolutely screwed the pooch on this one.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
It really I watched the edits, I watched what Yeah,
really happened, and then how it was edited, and I
was like, holy cow.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Yeah, and for the BBC, which used to have a
reputation of being objective and fair, not so good news.
But in the end, is that enough an apology? We
won't do it again. Sorry, Nope, I want a billion dollars.
Speaker 5 (08:20):
They should just put like a clock that spins between
to let it no time has passed, or an ellipses
with like twelve dots.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I don't think defamation is going to fly on this one,
but we'll see.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
It's a threat.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
And by the way, Donald Trump's threats are not idle threats.
Well they may be idle threats, but the various news
outlets take them very seriously. Read ABC, CBS paramount.
Speaker 5 (08:48):
Maybe he'll set it just for the crown. All right,
So the Justice Department is suing to block California's US
house maps, and we kind of saw this come in.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
Right, going to happen.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
This is all because it could tip the control of Congress.
That is freaking conservatives out. Of course, the kaploite filed
here in California in our federal court. It's kind of
targeting that congressional map. This was prop fifty that was
highly voted for here in California, Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom,
(09:24):
Newsom and White House Hopeful, I believe, said it was
in response to a similar Republican led effort.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
It was a response to what Texas did.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Texas did it based on what the President wanted Texas
to do. Look at the hypocrisy here. It is stunning.
It is breath taking. The hypocrisy. Texas revamps, it's congressional map.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
That's okay with a Justice department.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Why because Republicans California, on the other hand, because it's democratic,
therefore it is illegal. And their argument, their legal argument,
makes no sense whatsoever. Because what the Republicans the Department
of Justice are saying that the independent commission that was
established by law in California has now been undone by
(10:14):
law in California. And what the Department of Justice said,
you can pass legislation that sets up an independent commission,
but you can't do a.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Proposition that goes the other way.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Propositions are illegal unless we agree with them. Stunning, just
absolutely stunning. Why don't you bitch about Texas because Texas,
Texas is a different place. It's totally different, right, Well,
it is a different place. So anyway, it's just it's everything's.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
So blatant these days.
Speaker 6 (10:46):
Well, they're a judicial order involved in Texas at all.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
No, it was a legislature that did it, and they're
allowed to do it legally in Texas and in California,
the legislature was not allowed to read this rage until Prop.
Fifty was passed, and now the legislature is allowed to
do it.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
And they're challenging the way they did it. They're saying
that they used racial that it was discriminatory because they
were focusing on Hispanic voters. That's what the lawsuit says.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
It's it's doesn't make any sense because Texas did exactly
the same thing, and it's it's it's a verdict that.
In other words, they're saying that the politics they didn't
do it based on politics. Think about this for a moment.
It's not really a democratic or Republican move. It really
isn't politics. It's all about racism or racial differentiation.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Do you buy that? Does anybody buy that?
Speaker 4 (11:47):
But that's what the lawsuit says.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Yeah, it's going to.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Go no place and no hypocrisy is stunning, And why
didn't Texas do the same thing, because that's the way
it works, is that African Americans are genuinely democrats, Hispanics
to a lesser degree.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
And it's.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Doesn't make any sense. And by the way, Turney General
Pam Bondi says, the redistricting scheme is a brazen power
grab that tramples on civil rights and mocks the democratic process. Really,
propositions in California trample on the democratic process. Therefore we
(12:27):
shouldn't have propositions. It just I don't get it.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
All right, Show Hey, Otani sure likes winning things. Not
only did he just score back to back World Series,
he's now a back to back MVP. The two way
Star for a second season in a row, won the
National League's Most Valuable Player award. It was a unanimous decision.
Only Barry Bonds has more MVPs than Show Hey. He's
(12:51):
got four so far and he's only thirty one. Sing
about that.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
Not much more to say except I have a question.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Yeah, has an interpreter with him, He hangs out with interpreter.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
How good is his English? I heard a little bit
of his English during the parade during the celebration.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
So what I've heard because I haven't had a conversation
with him, but I've heard that he's pretty good, but
he uses the interpreter during interviews because he doesn't want
to screw it up.
Speaker 5 (13:19):
Okay, fair enough, all right, So the US has proposed
with everything going on in Gaza and the war and
the battle fatigue of everything, the building, structure, infrastructure, everything's
gone right. So the US comes and says, this is
(13:40):
what we'll do, the Board of Peace, and this will
be a group that oversees the rebuilding and all of
these things, temporarily governing the territory. Well, since this is
going through the UN Security Council, you have the Chinese
and the Russians who are Vito Wilding wielding member.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Of the UN. So it's not going to happen.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
So they said, they said no because the Chinese and
the Russians know what's best.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
Yeah, conversation's over.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
With any of the Big Five having complete veto power,
the UN is basically a non entity. It really isn't
the only thing it's good about being a UN members
you don't have to worry about parking tickets in New
York because you have immunity.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
That's basically it.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
Big win for Bezos did you see this? Yes, spectacular.
The Blue Origin launched its new Glen rocket from Cape
Canaveral on board couple of NASA probes that are headed
towards Mars, although they don't get there until twenty twenty seven.
But the launch was absolutely astounding yesterday. And not only
(14:53):
did they successfully launch this massive rocket, they also landed
it back on the platform. And the SpaceX does it
all the time. Bezos' company hadn't done it yet and
it was just their second try, and they landed on
a platform six hundred kilometers out off the coast in
the ocean. It was spectacular, pressive, spectacular.
Speaker 5 (15:12):
And that's the one that looks like a big rank
that looks like what.
Speaker 6 (15:16):
Like like a phallis.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
No, they all looked like They all look like that.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
They all look like that, And it depends on which
companies some like some look like circumcised and some look
like uncircumcised, depending on which company.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
Well, anyway, it was a big accomplishment for Bezos.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
It was very cool science.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
Yeah, all right, More strikes killing drug boats. Apparently the
Pentagon conducted its twentieth strike on one of these alleged
drug trafficking boats earlier this week, so says the Defense Department.
The strike occurred in the Caribbean, once again for Narco
teararists were killed, no survivors. Of course, the Trump administration
(16:05):
officials have acknowledged that they don't necessarily know the exact
identities of the individuals, but apparently there is technology that
can from a distance know if there's the presence of
large amounts of drugs.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Oh, I don't think anybody doubts that there are plenty
of drugs aboard those boats. I mean there are cigarette
boats they call them. That they fly along at eighty
miles per hour and that's all they're good for, and
you can actually see the drugs. The issue is the
people that are driving those boats that are considered narco
(16:40):
terrorists by our Defense Department or our War Department.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
It is now and I believe this that these are.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Just fishermen and they're citizens that live in these poor villages,
these seaside villages that the Narco terrorists are saying, you're
going to go or they offer them five hundred or
one thousand dollars to do this, and these people are impoverished,
I mean, they can't feed their families and that is
the issue is that the ones that are being targeted,
(17:12):
I mean the ships are being targeted or the boats,
which I'm fine with that. It used to be just interdictions,
coast Guard, the services would go out there and just
stop them and then arrest them and confiscate the drugs
and now you die. And the cost of going after them.
I mean, you know it's aircraft carriers and these huge
(17:33):
drones that cost the fortune.
Speaker 5 (17:36):
I would imagine that it's not just about the boats.
It's about setting a precedent in a way that will
hopefully strike fear. That's what roism is.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Noh, I have no doubt. I have no doubt about that.
But who get gets caught in the middle. You can't
call people who are not narco traffic candes, narco traffic cantes.
Speaker 5 (17:54):
Well, especially what about if they're doing that with you know,
carrying drugs and just using people. They still get arrested
if you're a drug carrier.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
And that's the point is it used to be people
people who did this were arrested when there the interdiction happened.
They were not blown out of the water. That's I
think the controversy. Let's say Imbrie Cartel's Baby.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
Sad Day for ABC of Award winning journalist Jim Avila.
He was a senior correspondent for ABC News, a host
of twenty twenty or a correspondent for twenty twenty. Worked
for ABC for seventeen years. He just died after a
long illness. Jim Avila was sixty nine. He apparently died
(18:38):
Wednesday at his home in San Diego.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Not much to say about that. Gummy shame, Yeah, it
is a shame for sure.
Speaker 5 (18:50):
THC gummies, drinks and things like that are under looking
down the barrel of a ban. You've got a spending bill,
and this tiny little provision kind of tucked in this
federal spending bill signed by President Trump could upend the
THHC industry. So they're they're allowed to put zero point
(19:14):
four milligrams of THHC per container in things like gummies
and beverage, even topical pain relief.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
That's absolutely nothing in the world of THC. I have
no clue.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Well, I'm not an expert at it, but it's for
those people that do take gummies regularly. I don't want
to mention any names, Lindsay and they're.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
Wait a second, are those the same as these, or
are there because I've heard some people say they couldn't
need a whole gummy.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
They would It depends. It depends on how strong the
gummy is. So these are like skittles. Oh I could.
I don't know. I'd be afraid of that's that's because
of her pain thing.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Because in many cases, THC helps with a lot of
medical issues. Glaucoma, for example, has been forever. It helps
cancer patients, for example, regain their.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Regain their ability to eat. Oh, I thought about it.
Speaker 5 (20:16):
It was illegal when my dad was dying and he contemplated,
you know, no, it brings up but so that.
Speaker 6 (20:23):
That may upend a lot of that. We'll see how
that turns out.
Speaker 4 (20:28):
Overestimated, maybe just a little bit. So there's a judge
who is looking over all the money that's been spent
on homelessness in Los Angeles, and apparently there's a shelter.
It's part of Project Home Key. It was reported that
there were eighty eight beds in that shelter, but then
(20:51):
an inspector went and checked and only found forty four.
So half the rest are just empty platforms. The judge
David oh Harder, during a court hearing on Wednesday, says
I send a little fraud, and he criticized the city
for what he says he perceives as a lack of
curiosity over a huge discrepancy like this.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Yeah, how about the suggestion is fraud all over the place. Now,
when you think of homeless shelter, you think of buildings, right,
you think of facilities. This homeless shelter are tents and
in those tents are these beds. But half of those
they don't Those beds don't exist. And this is a
(21:35):
contract that this homeless shelter I has with I think
it's the city of La.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Nobody's watching two point three.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Million dollar contract to provide eighty eight beds and as.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
So much money half or not there so much money,
which is why diet a union rescue mission.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Yes, yeah, they actually hurt around for a very long
time and they don't pet people into are accountable, all right,
So you go ahead one more and then when in
a bail and it's about the math, not mathing.
Speaker 5 (22:09):
California high school graduation rate is up to eighty seven
point five percent. The Hyacinths twenty seventeen. Yay, we're celebrating.
More people are graduating. However, you compare that with the
over fifty percent of graduates not meeting college or career
(22:30):
readiness standards, meaning the basics.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
So what does that tell you? What does that tell
you straight out.
Speaker 5 (22:37):
That we're giving people, we're graduating people that are not
equipped with.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
That is exactly correct, yeat.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
The requirements to graduate are dropping, dropping, dropping. When I
went to high school, they would fail you. You didn't
graduate unless you made quote the grade, unless you know.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
I almost didn't graduate. Now it's impossible not to graduate.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Well, if you're willing to, if you're willing to sit
in college, if you're willing to exactly, if you're willing
to stay in school, you're graduating. What's it.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
You're done and you become a high school graduate.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
It's like a participation trophy.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Yes, exactly, yes, well said.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
Every wonder why we're seeing so many bears and lions
and run ins figers, well not tiger's luckily. Researchers in
California say it's because of climate change. They say an
increase in human wildlife conflict due to prolonged climate exacerbated
drought conditions. They say that when the weather's really dry,
(23:41):
then there are more interactions between especially mountain lions, coyotes, bobcats,
and people.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Human wildlife interactions is basically a euphemism for people getting
eaten by these animals.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
That's the bottom line.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
Well, like there was the parking Orange County last week
where there was a couple of mountain lions sightings and
they were saying that one mountain lion was stalking a
couple of bicyclists.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
Mountain lions are not fine.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
I mean when you have bobcats, right, those yeah, those
are fun there. I've seen a couple of them and
they are the size of a medium sized dog and they're,
you know, kind of cute and fine.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Mountain lions. No, No, your breakfast for a mountain lion.
Here's a crap out of me.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
All righty, Fanny May officials, This is a little weird,
but it's they're kind of doing an investigation here.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
You've got Bill Pollute. Is that pronounce his name? I
think it's Pulta Pulte.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
He's the Trump administration's top housing regulator. But they're they're
looking at this kind of confidential mortgage pricing data going
back and forth between Fanny May to a principal competitor.
And the only reason this would be going back in,
the reason why it's setting off alarms is.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
That this could cause colluding and.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Collusion because you've got you've got Freddie Mack, you've got
Fanny Made. These are separate organizations. And the art and
the accusation here is he took information from one and
gave it to the other.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
And that would be which is unknown? Right, I saw
a price fixed. It's just for racious information.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
It's like, well, here's the analogy secret bids, right, you
tell what you're bidding, is uh, and the person taking
the bids actually sneaks the bidding information to a competitor.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
I think that's the analogy here.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
And Camelot lives. Jack Schlossberg, he's going to have to
change his name is the grandson of former President John F.
Kennedy has announced that he is running for Congress in
twenty twenty six. He's actually going after Representative Jerry Nadler seat,
which is New York's twelfth congressional district, because Nadler announced
(26:04):
earlier this year that he is not running for reelection.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
And Nadler is a real power in the House.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
I mean, he's part of leadership, or at least in
the upper upper echelons of the powerful Congress people. So
we'll see how he does, my guests, he's probably gonna win.
And then finally, Oh, what a story this one is.
Speaker 5 (26:25):
Oh so Lady Gaga revealed she experienced a psychotic breakdown.
Strangely enough, and she's thirty nine year old years old,
but strangely enough, it came like during a massive high
point when she was doing A Star Is Born and
her song was in the category for Oscar, which she won,
(26:49):
but she was on lithium and apparently she has called
off a couple of concerts and things like that, and
she was in a really scary place. This comes from
a Rolling Stone interview. She's since come out of that
and feels that she is a healthy, whole person. But
can you imagine the pressure of being having that kind
(27:11):
of talent and everybody staring at you and all those things,
And we kind of think, well.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
They're used to being stared at, I mean, rock stars,
you know, they sort of revel in this for the
most part. But that's that's kind of interesting that she
admitted that, I mean, good for her. Also, anytime we
mentioned A Star is Born, I, of course I have
to interject with that A Star is Born is also
the most popular film in Sweden, always has been, and
(27:38):
there it's called A Star is Bjorn. I have to
do that every single time. I cannot control myself.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
How come I don't know that one? After thirty years.
Speaker 5 (27:49):
I've heard every job, all three of your jokes, your word,
over and over.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
God, that one I don't know that I've heard. Wow, Okay,
those times.
Speaker 6 (28:00):

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
