When you need to know, let me know.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
We got you three things you need to know on
Bustin's Number one for hip Hop and the best throwbags
You Haven't any more. Five Friday, January tenth, and we
are day four, guys, with the wildfires in LA with
a brand new one that was started near Hidden Hills
and Calabasas.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Hidden Hills is where you could find the.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Likes of a Will Smith, and Calabasas is where you
can find the Kardashians. Now, this is happening and breaking overnight.
Remember yesterday I told you guys that there was a
rumor that some of these wildfires had been started on purpose,
And we are learning throughout the night, and as of
this morning that one suspect has been arrested and being
(00:51):
investigated as an arsonist.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
LA is a scary place. There's a lot of crazy
people out there, a lot of crazy people walking this street.
And I get a picture that one of them did
this for what reason, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
I still think it will climb. The death toll went
from five yesterday to ten. Structures destroyed. I think yesterday
we were talking two thousand. As of this morning, ten
ten thousand structures have been destroyed with ten people dead,
and that number is just going to keep continuing to
(01:25):
climb because these fires are still raging on. Now. Did
we yesterday start to see more of the devastation as
the fires kind of moved, Yeah, wild seeing some of
the celebrities post them going back to their homes, and
even non celebrities, it's just celebrities.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
We see more on social media.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I mentioned it yesterday and I'll mention it again, Like
I just feel like it's such a disgusting narrative that's
being pushed where people are like, oh, please, they're celebrities,
they'll rebuild. That's fine that they have money, and maybe
some other people don't have as much, but they still
may have raised their children there, they may have still
left behind things that meant the world to them. They're
still people. I get that they might have money, but
(02:11):
there's still people, and I just I hate that people
are I do see a lot of people pushing that
there's a curfew in La County right now because the
looting is at an all time high, and it's not
just stores. People are going into other people's homes, have
left for safety, and they're going to come home to
(02:32):
either nothing or their house might be standing, but it
will be empty because of looting. Like you loot during
something like this, you're the scum of the earth. I
think we can just go ahead and say it.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
I feel like La is going to be I mean,
it's not coming back, It's not going to be the same.
It's probably take twenty years for them to rebuild this town.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
You know what's wild?
Speaker 2 (02:50):
You two would like jokingly say before this happened that
because of the drug epidemic that's happening in La right now,
that it was like zombie land.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Right now, it like physically looks like, yeah, it looks
like the Walking Dead out there for.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
No one hundred percent looks post apocalyptic. It's it's something
out of a movie. It's it's crazy, And you know,
I just think that this is one of those things where, yeah,
it's it's far away from us, but I think we
can all kind of take a step back and know
what it would feel like if someone said you have
ten minutes to get out of your house and grab
all your things. I watched an interview with a mom
(03:24):
yesterday and she said that and you have kids, you know,
you think, Okay, I have ten minutes. I have to
get everything out for them. She goes, I have nothing
I grabbed like a pair of jeans for myself. Also,
you have ten minutes. Like what do you what? I
brought this up to the fireman last night. I said,
if someone told us we had ten minutes to get
out of this hausele for a burned down, like what
are we what are we grabbing? And he's like, I
(03:46):
think my first thought would be like you get out,
you guys, get out, and then whatever I can get,
I'll get.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
But I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
It's it's a very that must be such an eerie
thing to hear ten minutes, to have ten minutes to
get your life.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Whatever you can grab from your life, you have to go.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Ten years ago in San Diego there was some bad fires.
We had a radio station on the air. They were
doing like charities and all this stuff. They were saying,
like the donations with like like all the money stuff
is fine, but the important things like the socks, underwear,
like all this stuff you don't think think about because
you lose everything.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
And I do see a lot of celebrities stepping up
in that department who may have had like a facility
where they were safe. Goop from Gwyneth Paltrow being one,
she's using her warehouse to send you know, I saw
a lot of non perishables and baby wipes and diapers
and stuff to people. I know that yesterday the firefighters
were like, we appreciate everybody dropping off snacks and stuff,
but we need protein, like we need to eat.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
We're not sleeping. We're trying to be out there fighting these.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Fires on nothing like we're running on e So I
know a lot of restaurants in LA some that got
out unscathed. They're trying to help there. But I mean,
we're not even close to being done with this. And
if this in fact is happening because of people starting
these like arsonists, there's not just one are all over,
(05:01):
that means there's more and could potentially be me more.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
It doesn't matter like this, but I wonder what this
is going to do to the entertainment like industry, because
that's the center of the universe for all of them,
all the movies have filmed their TV shows. I got
to assume it's gonna shut.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Down things you wouldn't even think about my best friend.
I remember I told you guys lives in Manhattan. Be
she's a She's a Division one basketball coach. They were
supposed to have a game yesterday. They couldn't play the
game because she her school is lmus Trade outside of
LA Because of the air quality and there's windows in
the gym and due to the fact that the air
was getting into the gym, they weren't allowed to play.
(05:35):
Pepperdine University has canceled classes until like middle to end
of February. Everything is going to change. Kids' schools were
burnt down to the ground, like the crown. How are
we starting to rework these kids getting back in school? Like,
you don't think about the snowball effect of what this
is going to do to communities. You know, we might
not see Pacific palisades rebuilt for decades.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Absolutely, this is crazy. This is up there and like
one of the worst catastrophes this country has ever had.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Yeah, no, it really is.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
And I We're like, again, we're on the opposite side
and we're removed from it. But I do think this
is one of those things where you can kind of
take a step back to be like damn, Like imagine
how hard it must be. Joey b also making it
clear that the government will help fire relief for up
to six.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Month at one hundred percent, So that's going to be
nice too.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
All right, quickly, if people weren't crying about what's happening
in La, they were crying because of TikTok yesterday. For
the past four years, TikTok has been facing a crisis
of maybe going away and being banned in the US. Remember,
our Justice Department wants it to go because they feel
like it's a threat to our national spot security here
(06:46):
that we're being spied on. They wanted to go and
a law could be passed very quickly, And as of
jan nineteen.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
There is a chance that TikTok has gone.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
I don't see it going way. Hopefully at the end
of the day they'll come up with some sort of solution.
But if it does go away the very next day,
I will just go on with my life.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Yeah, they got four days, isn't it? The fourteenth? Nineteenth?
Speaker 2 (07:11):
That's the deadline for Bite Dance to basically sell off
it's its operation or the Actually they're refusing as of
right now, So yeah, they there is a chance that
that jan nineteen. Date gets pushed while they try to
like deliberate and make a decision.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
But I don't know. Listen, I'm not a TikTok head.
So it is.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
But you love it. I know how much you love it,
and I know that this would this would hurt.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
You absolutely, yes, yes, But at the same time, something
else will pop up.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
I hate to say it, but like then people will
just rely more on whether it will.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Be will change and it will be okay. But I
do somehow I think they'll come to some conclusion at
the end of the day and.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
We'll get through it all right. Lastly and just quickly.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I know we had mentioned obviously everything that's going on
in La and all these celebrities losing their homes, one of.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Which is jene Iaiko.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
She lost her home in the La fires and she
has a son with Big Sean that we know, just
two years old.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
She said.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Praying for everybody this morning, those who lost their home,
those who lost their life's work, those who lost their life,
praying for the city, praying for the wildlife and lost pets,
Praying for the world. Let suffering be a gift, a
lesson in compassion, she said. My children's home is completely
gone and is burned to the ground with all of
our things inside. Lord have mercy than we will. Thankful
we still have each other starting from scratch. My heart
(08:25):
is so heavy. God bless us all.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
You know.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
That's one thing I see. I see a lot of
people that have lost their homes writing just like things
that they're now looking back like, Okay, it's burned to
the ground.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
I have nothing, but I wish I grabbed this.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
I saw Myles Teller, Miles Teller's wife write, you know,
a whole thing about their home and do you know
what she wishes that she grabbed the one thing that
she can't get out of her head?
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Her wedding dress. Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
And it's strange like mine sits there and collects dust. Yeah,
but it's sentimental.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
If it was if I yeah, it's I still go
back to it.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
I think the pictures is the most important thing for
me personally, be all the hard drives, because that was
the last twenty years of my life.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
AJ saw something I don't do you remember the company
about how people were offering to take So there's a
company that basically was saying that if you did rescue
any photos and you got your pictures out, they will
take them and digitalize them for you for free. If
something happened to you with the La fires. I do
think there's a lot of companies that are trying to
do their best, their best just to help out as
(09:29):
as you know, in any way they can. All Right,
the three things need to Know for Friday, G and
tenth the podcast.
