You know, I was thinking about Alex Stone, ABC News,

new menus at the ballparks now. I know you're a
baseball fan, and so I saw a Dodger stadium. Are
you going to be enjoying the slugger? Do you know
what that is?

Speaker 1 (00:18):
It is? It is? It's a very large one. It's uh, well,
it's a sixteen inch lapino cheddar sausage dog sixteen inches
a big dog that is an enormous dog with corn relish,
white cheddar cheese, sauce, cilantro krema, and a creama krema.

(00:39):
I don't know, I said that wrong.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
Probably and yeah krema, yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
And then crunchy tortilla strips all on that. Would you
would that be something that you'd put your cross.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
About that, you know, because they're famous for their Dodger dog,
which is like three feet long and it comes out
of the bun and like flops over on the side
of the bun out of both ends.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
Oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
Those are famous. You can buy those at the grocery
store as well and make them at home. I don't know,

Speaker 3 (01:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
That Dodger dog that's the home wrecker is the nickname.
I think. Oh really, I think well for obvious reasons.
I mean, it's flopping all out of the end.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
Of the one unsanitary to eat. How do you even
get that back to your seat without it hitting somebody?

Speaker 1 (01:29):
You got to put some napkins down, hitting them in
the back of the head.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
Excuse me, sorry? With Wayne Star, you don't want to
hear at the ballpark.

Speaker 1 (01:39):

No, no, yeah. Some of the other ones they're they're
doing alex Is. Uh, there's the Kimchi burger at Wrigley Field.
I'm like, kim Chi. We were talking to Congressman Jordan
about it a little bit ago, and I was bringing
up some of this stuff. I was like, look, man,
it's baseball. What are they doing? You know, you don't
do puffy tacos that's one of the things at Wrigley Field,

(02:08):
or the Jabburrito sandwich. But we're watching baseball. This is
I don't even know. It's just listed on here. They
don't even Instead, well, yeah, I don't know that one either.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
I know is if you're low on it, you can
get shots. I guess.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Yes, instead of buns. You get that with the jabburrito sandwich. Yeah.
I don't know, man, I just feel like they're complicating
it all up. Who wants a sixteen inch jalapino cheddar
sausage dogs.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
Get a pretzel and some mustard and hot dug and
beer and a red rope. I remember that growing up,
going to the A's games, getting the long long red ropes.

Speaker 4 (03:19):
Yes, yeah, the Oakland A's Vital Blue. I'm having memories.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
Ricky Henderson Dave Henderson, Tennis Ackersley, and now they're going
to be in Sacramento for who knows how long at
a minor league stadium.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
Well, I'll come back bigger and better maybe if they
ever go to Vegas.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Yeah, yeah, right, that's supposed to happen.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
But they haven't even broken ground on the stadium. And
it was supposed to be super temporary going and playing
at the Rivercats Stadium. If you even call it a
stadium in Sacramento, it's like a it's a tiny minor
league park. And now it's will they ever go to Vegas?
They don't know.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
There must be money problems. That's usually what's halting everything. Yeah,
twenty three, speaking of money problems, twenty three and me,
you know, I've never participated in any of these, any
of these DNA you know, find my ancestry. I And look,
I don't know. People are like whatever toake off for
timfoil Hat for a minute. Maybe it might be. But

(04:20):
I see this story and I go, man, I'm glad
I wasn't, But tell me what's happening with this Alex.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
Yeah, So tens of millions of people have done it,
and twenty three and me, they found for bankruptcy today.
The CEO resigned a few months ago. There were some
signs of problems in that forty percent of twenty three
and me's staff was laid off. And the problem is
that twenty three and me has not been able to
find a way to bring in money on a monthly
membership basis. I mean everybody's doing it, from your streaming

(04:48):
services to you know, if you even think of you
want Microsoft works now their office that there is one
option that you just buy it and you've got it.
But typically you've got a membership. Now we're paying every
month versus how software used to be that you would
just buy the software and it was yours. And so
they tried to come up with a way to do that.
But most people, once you got your genetic report and

(05:09):
found out that you were this much from this country
and this much from this area of the world, then
then you were done. You weren't coming back to pay
for more reports and more things. And you know, if
cilantro is going to taste like soap for you, and
you know, it tells you all kinds of things. If
you're more likely to sleep on your left side, and
if you can smell asparagus when you go to the bathroom,

(05:29):
because it's an enzyme that you may or may not have,
that they would give you all of that kind of stuff.
So people would come once and then they wouldn't come back.
And now they're in trouble. And California's Attorney General, because
the company is headquartered in California, is warning that the
company could be on the verge of collapse. And if
you used twenty three and meters that you may want

(05:49):
to do something now to have them delete or secure
your data. And there are steps and I'll tell you
about that. But Anya Prince is a professor at the
University of Iowa College of Law, and she told us today.

Speaker 5 (06:00):
Policy itself says that in the case of sale or bankruptcy,
the consumer data goes with the new company. And furthermore,
the privacy policy says that it can be changed at
any time. And so there's a chance that consumers are
comfortable with how twenty three and me is currently using
their data, but that they might not be comfortable with
how a new company would slightly alter the privacy policy.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
So that's the thing. You may not know what a
new company is going to do with your data. When
they come in, or they could liquidate and it could
all be sold off into different companies and you don't
know where it's going. So the age here in California,
Rob Bonte, he's saying, if you're a twenty three AE
meter customer, that you should think about going into the settings,
download a PDF of your report so you've got it,
you know, from here on out, so you paid for it,

(06:46):
you might as well keep it, and then go into
the settings. Have them stop sharing your data with third
parties if you signed up for it when you did
sign up, if you gave the consent for it, have
them delete your saliva sample or destroy your saliva sample,
delete your day, and then delete your account if you
feel like, yeah, you want to do it. And the
thing is that so many people when they signed up,
they didn't even realize that they were giving consent for

(07:08):
them because it was presented as do you want us
to do research and you know we will work with
other companies on health research and things, and people said okay, sure,
and that they were giving consent for them to share
their data with other companies. So you need to take
that back. And twenty three and ME tells us today
in a statement they say they don't share data with
a third party without your consent, but a lot of

(07:29):
people gave that consent and will comply with all genetic
privacy law state and federal, and we'll keep DNA data confidential.
But it looked like before the bankruptcy that they were
trying to go private. But now the future of the
company is unknown. We don't know what's going to go
on with the data. Shares have been in a free
fall with all this news. So, I mean, one time,

(07:50):
twenty three and me was one of Oprah's favorite things.
People were doing it like crazy. They're all kinds of
special deals that you could sign up for in holiday deals,
and now they're they're definitely in trouble.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
And this is really really concerning, and you know, it
may be too late for a lot of people, but
I'm glad you had those steps for people that are
listening that are like, oh gosh, I better do something,
you know, kind of a thing.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
Yeah, because maybe in the end it won't matter and
everything will be fine. But even the Attorney General is saying, hey,
be worried about this, and you probably want to do something.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
Yeah, yeah, all right. For the very latest on that.
Thank you Alex Stone, ABC News appreciate you man. We'll
talk to you later.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
You too, letters, See you man.
