at the top.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
Because since Sysney evacuated last week, I followed her to
make sure she found somewhere safe to go. And I
realized when I was worrying about you that I don't
have your location, and I think it's time that we
shared just so that.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Didn't I respond, did I tell you how to leave?
I had to find a hotel.

just we've been good for Georgia. She can play with Diego.
It's a fair point. There was not a lot of
grass where we ended up having to stay. By the way,
it was packed. Yeah, we couldn't get the right room,
you know, Like we had a room with two beds.
I wanted one, but we had a room with too.
I didn't care.

Those are the only ones that were available. The kids room.
Kids you got a bunk bedroom I got. They were
not stacked on top of each other. But they were
small and side by side, and she wanted to sleep
with me. Oh, but I just think it's time in
these times that we uh, I'm going to pass on that.
What do you think about it?

Exactly similar to that pin, That's what I'm saying. I
could look, I saw Sysney, she.

was not windy that night, you know, Thank goodness. We
have that alert sound on our phone, which does get
your attention. I don't alarmed to be that loud, but

If you're lucky enough to still have your home. God
(06:52):
bless you, and for those who have lost theirs. It
is all the uncertainty and the lack of peace of
mind is unsettling. We've talked to so many families. We
have friends as well, best friends that have lost their
homes entirely. Sisney, we were evacuated. We got to come
back home. But yeah, but we're one of the lucky ones,
like out of everybody else. O true, It's it's so true.
(07:15):
And when you go to Siciny's house, I just want
you to know, if you're ever invited over, she's got
a nice avocado tree. She was blessed with this tree
before she got the house. Okay, so don't think she
planted this tree. It's been there for I don't even
know how many generations. Probably I think of you and
I think of Tom Selleck a lot at the same time. Okay,
because Tom Sellick has avocado trees as well. You know
(07:38):
he does those insurance commercials. It almost make me cry. Yes,
I don't know if you've seen them. They're like three
minutes long, just like, oh you got to see Tom
Suck does an insurance commercial that makes you want to
move in with Tom Selleck. I can't think you're Tom
Selleck right now? Mustache magnum p. I yes, oh from friends.
No he's not from friends, Yes he is. He's not
(07:59):
from friends, Yes he is. Tom Selleck is not from
friend Yes, that's not where he's from. He's from Magnums.
Speaker 5 (08:11):
He is.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Monica Geller's boyfriend is blue Buds. He has a dinner
with the blue Blods. I don't know what blue Bloods is. Okay, well,
you guys need to start watching CBS. We know him
from friends. From friends, he was on friends. He's from
magnum P. I never seen it the same. Check him
(08:32):
out any shorts, by the way, you'd love it. I
know he's got shorts. Ever, anyway, he moves me. Why
do you get into that I'm talking about avocados. Yes,
so Systney has this beautiful avocado tree. What you would
think on your way out you could just grab one
because there's a plethora. Well here's the thing. If you
come over to my house, that's not true.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
If you come over, if Tony comes over, Mark, you
come over, I will happily give you one avocado.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
I mean, okay, why just one? My tree is like
gives the best avocado.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
They are so big and juicy and buttery and delicious,
and they are great avocados. However, my I just don't
like sharing with like my family, because my mom, my dad,
and I'm calling you out right now, because this is
what you do. My mom especially, they've been watching this
avocado for the past year, like the tree, like, oh, they're.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Not ready yet. Oh they're not ready yet. Oh they're
not ready yet. And then they come over and what
do they do.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
My mom pulls them all out and then she puts
them in a brown paper back and she takes twenty
avocados home with her. And let me tell you, let
me tell you. My parents have an avocado tree in
their backyard, so they don't know they're there. Avocados are
really deformed and like they don't grow big.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
Avocados supill February.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Well that's the thing.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
And she has like this whole system because if they're
not right, you put them in the bag and it
has to be a dark place and like all this
stuff whatever.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
But they don't ask. They just thanks for the avocadas.
Is your mother? She's allowed to take your avocado fruit? Clearly?
I mean, I don't I don't stop her. Do you
know what avoca tom SELLI told me. Avocado trees can
produce two to threehud avocados a year, so get over it.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Well, this is my first year in the house, and
I don't know how many avocados I'm going to get.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
But then she might want one to day. Maybe I
kind of do. When I buy avocados at the store,
they don't taste like anything. I know, this zero taste
the avocados I buy at the store.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
I'm going to bring you one in my avocados, and
it's going to change your mom.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
I won't That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
I'll share a couple of you guys, don't take the
whole bad Worth.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Well, we're not gonna steal because we've obviously heard that's
against the rules. But I'd like to taste an avocado.
They taste like an avocado, because like tomatoes don't even
taste like tomatoes orre I buy my tomatoes. Why is
that because they produce too many of them and they
pick them early. Yeah, or they're coming from somewhere else.
You know. I read they picked bananas like when they're
super green. They put them on a ship. Yeah, but
(11:02):
a banana still tastes like a banana to me. True,
I just don't know how, like they pick them too early.
I mean I was reading this book on how they
picked bananas and bok the Dole book, the book on
the door who for myself? I bought it for me anyway,
talks about how they you know, they grow them in
(11:22):
different parts of the world, and they're shipped, put in
a container, dark and shipped. Then they're put you know,
in a central location, then put on a truck, then
they're put in the store. I mean, your banana has
a real journey before it gets to your mouth. That
they don't stand a chance.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
At my house, we get I get six bananas at
a time and they are gone within three days.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
We need a laugh, don't we do that? I'll be
hearing that in a promo during Joe Joe Show. So
a team of researchers at Binghamton University recruited people who
read a series of text exchanges, and they said text
messages should not include this if you want to be
(12:15):
taken seriously. What an emoji? I do this all the time. Well,
emojis is a good I don't even understand how the
emojis I get sometimes Now it takes me.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
To some like Avatar page. I'm like, I just want
the regular emojis.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Like trucks and two like these are too high tech.
Does a dump truck? All of a sudden, I only
said a dump truck. They say, don't put a period
in your message. Oh, may be take it more seriously.
Mine automatically puts a period in there when I I
don't even notice when it does or doesn't. And I
hit a period sometimes when I'm not even meaning to
(12:50):
hit the period, like, I just leave it there. I'm
a dot dot totter as well. I love dot dot
dots me too, because here's my thoughts and then the
trail off. It's also because I don't remember on my grammar,
so dot dot dot it and keep going.
Speaker 5 (13:05):
Yeah. Same.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
So today's quote for your Wednesday. Better to adjust your
life to their absence than to adjust your boundaries to
accommodate their disrespect. Dude, just FM headlines with siciny well.
Speaker 7 (13:22):
Governor Gavin Newson signed an executive order that will speed
up debris removal and preparation for potential mudslides. The flooding
in the areas burned by the wildfires.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Another windy day ahead.

We are under a red flag warning until six this evening.
Speaker 2 (13:41):

Wildfire victims are eligible to receive one time payments of
seven hundred and seventy dollars from the federal government as
part of FEMA's Critical Needs Program, and Amtrak is offering
ten dollars one way tickets to travel anywhere in Socow
in an effort to help those impacted by the recent wildfires.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
In the last week, hundreds and hundreds of new GoFundMe
pages have gone up from people devastated by these fires.
This week, everybody knows somebody that's had this tragedy really
impact them. Whole families losing their homes, losing their memories. Uh,
this one you hit home right here with Simon. Who's

Simon Bingham, who's worked on our show sixteen years? Wow? Yeah,
sixteen years that Simon's been sending me pages.

know everyone, I'm close to the city and and my
coworkers and my friends and my family of course.

I also have your brother going to bring up on
the line. But your brother, Josh and his samily they
lost their home huh in Palisades. They did.
Speaker 8 (15:13):
Yeah, they thankfully they got out safe and sound. They
avoided the snare of traffic that made it even harder
for so many people. They were very smart. They got
out it. They got out ahead of it as much
as much as they could. But obviously they they lost,
you know, so much.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
So let me bring in Josh Bingham. This is Simon
who works on our staff. Here, this is Josh and
his family. They did lose their home. Josh, good morning,
thanks for coming on. How you holding up?
Speaker 5 (15:43):
Hey?
Speaker 9 (15:44):
Thanks guys, You know, all things being said, were doing okay.
The love and support from friends and family and colleagues
has been amazing. You know, the best of people has
been brought out by the worst of things happening. It's
(16:06):
it's devastating, it's hard to wrap your head around. It's surreal,
it's scary, it's sad. You know, I've young kids and
it's been just crazy for them. We you know, we
lost everything, the house they've grown up in, the house
they've known since they were born. As my brother was saying,
(16:28):
we you know, we were very lucky to have been
aware and and sort of paying attention when it started
to go down, and so we got out safe and sound.
But you know, the loss for our community, for the
city of la for everybody that lived around us, our
neighbors and friends, are you know us included, It's it's profound.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
So you saw this, well, this is in the Palisades
on the first night, you saw the smoke and you
immediately got out of there. Did you beat that gridlock
that was a problem.
Speaker 9 (17:01):
Yeah, we were super lucky for that. I was I
was outside doing some hard work right there, you know,
and I looked up and it was like, I don't know,
ten forty five eleven in the morning, and this.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Is sort of dark.
Speaker 9 (17:18):
But my wife has always joked that, like, you know,
she's the sensible one. I'm always like, yeah, we're gonna
be fine, you know, but when it comes to fire,
I'm the one that is has been always like one
foot on the floor, like I don't know that the
sant Ana winds just freaked me out and in this case,
a little plume of smoke over the top.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Of the hill.
Speaker 9 (17:41):
And it was a beautiful blue sky day, but the
wind was ripping twenty five miles per hour, steady with
big dusts, and and was that little plume was pointing
directly at us. And I was like, whoa, you know,
I just had a feeling.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
It took a picture.
Speaker 9 (18:02):
It doesn't look like much, you know, but I just
I don't know.
Speaker 10 (18:05):
Something told me.
Speaker 9 (18:05):
I went inside, I talked to my wife. We started
thinking about should we pack up and should we get out.
Within like twenty minutes, that smoke got sick and much bigger, and.
Speaker 10 (18:20):
It was still bowling right at us.
Speaker 9 (18:23):
And she started getting mom group texts like from neighbors
and people going like, well, this looks crazy. And then
we got an evacuation warning, at which point we were like, okay,
let's go time yeah, and yeah, it's your question mine.
(18:44):
We beat the lock by a minute, and you know,
I got onto Pacific Coast Highway and was able to move,
but I saw that Sunset Boulevard was already like gnarally
it was backed up and cars kind of people getting
out of their cars. It was knowing ash.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
You know, Josh Bingham is on with us, brother of
Simon who works here on the on Earthrian Seacrest staff
sixteen years and you could just hear it in Josh's voice,
the exhaustion, It just just just beats you down. Well, Josh,
I know you've got to go fundme page aid the Binghams.
That's b I N G H A M s on
(19:25):
GoFundMe aid the Binghams. If you'd like to help out
that family of four. And let me bring Simon in
for a second here, Josh, just on a lighter note,
I need you to clarify something here. Simon keeps telling
us that your great grandfather was the inspiration for Indiana Jones.
Is this true? This is true? Yeah, that's true. Do
(19:46):
you think I would lie about something?
Speaker 11 (19:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
It's so nuanced. I thought maybe you make that up, Jones,
if it weren't for Grandpa being No, I don't make up.
I ambellish. That's what I did for I am Bella.
Speaker 12 (20:01):
Simon.
Speaker 9 (20:02):
Simon makes up a lot. He did not make that
one up.
Speaker 10 (20:04):
That is true.
Speaker 9 (20:05):
There is a rumor, and I can't confirm.
Speaker 13 (20:07):
This, but somewhere out there there's an original draft of
that script, and Hiram Bingham's name is written in pencil
on the on the front of that script. Jones and
Simon and I were fledgling filmmakers.
Speaker 5 (20:25):
One day.
Speaker 9 (20:26):
The first movie I ever made was called Illinois, Josh,
and I was trying to be I was trying to
be Indiana Joe.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Let's just mentioned. I'm sorry I was.
Speaker 8 (20:36):
I was relegated to assistant, like sort of like boy
child assistant to Indiana or to Illinois Josh.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
And he got the lead role. And I'm still a
little bit Did they call you Springfield? What was your
code name? I think I was nameless. It was a
silent film shout out to femil Well, I just want
to tell you, Josh, you are the better looking brother.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
Here.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
I'm looking at looker Josh Bingham of La trying to
just have a little bit of a laugh with you.
But I know your family is really going through it
after being displaced. So thanks for coming on. Much love
and big hugs to your power. Yeah, we love you.
Speaker 9 (21:11):
Yeah, thank you, guys, really appreciate it. Be good and
keep springing the work.
Speaker 12 (21:16):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
Thanks Simon for setting that up for us with my pleasure.
It will be years and years before our city comes
back to normal, and some of those blocks look like
blocks again. I mean, that's just unbelievable. But this is
not going away. Yeah, So we're here every morning with
(21:37):
you at kiss appreciate you coming back as part of
your routine. So Tany was telling us that John Mayer
posted something about what everybody's going through in these fires
and what was it that struck you, Tanya.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
Well, a lot of people have been throwing around this
phrase in the midst of the wildfires, that it's just stuff,
meaning thank god you're okay and the rest is replaceable,
and it's a well intentioned phrase. But John Mayer's post
went viral because it really encapsulated the sentiment to people
losing things. And the photo on the post was just
(22:14):
a picture of like a folder and it was a
very long caption, but to summarize, he said, this is
the most valuable thing I own. Photos that spanned my
father's life from infancy to adulthood. It's the only evidence
of his life that will exist over time. When you
hear someone say they've lost everything in a fire, this
is much of that everything, if not all of it.
(22:35):
Those who say they'll be okay still have their folders
and their albums. Just behind the immeasurable loss of life
is the loss of the proof of life. And I
mean this was shared so much over the past week.
I feel and I one of my friends that lost
his home, that is the one thing he says he
(22:58):
wakes up every morning kind of gas being saying, I
wish I would have taken that folder with these photos
that I just got from my family. I wish that
I would have taken that clock that was from my parents.
I wish I would have grabbed that, you know, like
that type of it's it's not they wish they would
have grabbed their jackets or their favorite pants. It's always
(23:18):
those things that those memories, the memories, and I feel
like that is what is really your spirit.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
It's a good point because material stuff, when you say stuff,
that's material stuff, right, But the memories, you know, I
think we were talking here kids projects, and you know,
I remember I made a plate for my mom that
is terrible but hysterical with a bunch of permanent markers.
(23:46):
And I was in kindergarten nineteen twelve the year but
she loves it.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Yeah, No, it's those wooden beams in the kids room
that you measure their you know how often they grow
every month. It's all that stuff that I feel is
it's really hurting.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
It's true heartbreaking too. But resilience is the key word
that we're seeing from so many people here in La.
Can I jump to Long Beach for a second? One
down LB Long Beach and Sarah with an h on
the phone here, Sarah, good morning? How can we help
you in Long Beach?
Speaker 12 (24:20):
Hey, good morning. I'm just looking girl advice. I've been
with my girlfriend for two years and she's definitely the one.
We live together and we're planning on getting married and
having kids and everything. But she came to me over
the weekend and said that she wants to be the
(24:43):
biological mom of any kids that we have. And I
was shocked by this because I just assumed she would
have one and I would have one something, you know.
But the reason she gave is that my mother is
an alco aholic and she wouldn't want that down. Yeah,
(25:05):
my mom?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Wow that is heavy. Yeah, how did I make you feel?
We must be I'm a fan? Yeah, me too.
Speaker 12 (25:18):
Yeah, Like my mom has actually worked really hard, like
she's been sober for four years and she's been super
supportive of our relationship and everything, and she would just
be like mortified if she knew this conversation was happening.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Yeah, this is interesting. How long have you been with
your partner?
Speaker 12 (25:38):
About two years?
Speaker 1 (25:40):
And did you discuss kids and how at any point
early on?
Speaker 12 (25:46):
Well, you said, like both of us have said that
we wanted to get married and have kids, but we
did not ever discuss specifics of like who would have them?
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Right, Well, yeah, and then there's there's that part. But
to me, it's the reason why she doesn't want you
to have one, because of your your history. And I
think that that is wow for a partner.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
To say that, Yeah, like she's put a lot of
thought into that even before she vocalized it to you.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
That's a character. Tell you know, how are you with
her now? Are things awkward now?
Speaker 5 (26:24):
I mean.
Speaker 12 (26:27):
Kind of like my first instinct was to just like
try and figure out any issues in her family, like terrible,
why don't you?
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Why don't you? What's the science on that disease and
it being carried into a child? What's the science on it?
Because you know it's not proven? Is it proven? To
necessarily be something that is passed along.
Speaker 12 (26:57):
I mean, it is hereditary. It's like she's not wrong.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
So is it proven that it's always Herittald? How have
you been as as your doctor?
Speaker 12 (27:05):
I don't have an issue with it, But honestly, that
might be because seeing my mom growing up, I've always
just kind of stayed away from alcohol, like I haven't.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Really Then that's your Yeah, that's almost like you it's
gonna be your child. That's what you then will create
right in your child's.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Life, like you've broken the cycle and then and now
it's all about how you raise your child.
Speaker 12 (27:26):
Yeah, I mean I definitely would want at least one
of our children to be mine biologically. So I just
don't know.
Speaker 5 (27:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 12 (27:37):
I don't know what to say to her about it.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
It sounds like she's pretty set on it. Oh she's
not set.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
You need to convince her otherwise, and otherwise what this
is a deal breaker?
Speaker 1 (27:46):
I agree, I mean it is still a longer conversation.
I'm just googling alcoholism has alcoholism has a hereditary component.
With a family history of alcolism, are at a higher
risk of developing a higher risk. But you're not in
that world. So I don't you know, I really think
this is the conversation you should have with your partner.
It is definitely something I'm I'm glad you're talking about now,
(28:10):
not later finding this out because you may not feel comfortable,
but maybe you will and maybe you guys will get there.
So good luck, but continue to talk. It says there's
a fifty percent chance of being predisposed to alcohol use
disorder if your family has a history. So it's not
I mean, you're late living a clean, sober life and
that's what your child's gonna see. So thank you, sir
(28:32):
for reaching out. We wish you the best of luck
on this one. It's tough.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Yeah, yeah, all.
Speaker 12 (28:36):
Right, well I appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Good luck to take care, all right.
Speaker 12 (28:40):
Thanks.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
I think you know she doesn't drink, so her child
doesn't see it. But I want to shift gears. There
are so many stories like this. Unfortunately, we're gonna meet
Morgan Postsada here in Altadena. Morgan's on the line. Morgan
and his family lost everything in the Eton fire. Fortunately
he and his family are okay, two boys and a daughter,
(29:02):
one set of clothes. He's a local gardener, lost his clients,
lost his tools, lost everything. How are you doing, Morgan?
Speaker 6 (29:09):
Yeah, right now, and you talked away with my son
we go I can understand a level of English.
Speaker 11 (29:18):
My dad would like to patch the phone to me
because you can't really, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
No problem. So I just asked him, how's he doing?
Speaker 11 (29:28):
Where do we find a lot better than when it
first happened? Slowly just trying trying to find resources and yeah,
just finding support around the community and with family members.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
So you can ask him this and he can put
put the fund to him. He can answer it in Spanish.
That's fine. Just asking your father about those moments of
saving the family and the things that you guys have
lost as a family.
Speaker 10 (29:57):
As a moment.
Speaker 6 (29:59):
A and being a momento and montagno okay, lachista gus
antro pertamento personal secot scale he plays police a mobile
(30:27):
or the Amergenia esposa pas manto.
Speaker 4 (30:37):
The play won't go say he said.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
Basically, he had like ten minutes to evacuate. The police
came to his house, told him it's time to go,
and he saw the smoke on the mountain and that was.
Speaker 5 (30:49):
It, and.
Speaker 10 (30:54):
In well let's let's pack it up.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Yeah, the list that on.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
His wife got out. His wife got out first, and
he was trying to go back to maybe get more things.
They wouldn't let him. It was just too late, and
they all slept on the street that night.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
Wow. Morgan Posada with us and local gardener helped the
community work for a lot of people right there, his
neighbors who have lost their homes as well. He's lost
all of his tools, he's lost a lot of his
work because people don't have their homes there. That is
the crazy thing to think of. Yeah, Morgan, we're going
to give out your go fund me page for anybody
that is hearing your story and would like to help
(31:48):
you out. Is what you do is you go and
go fund me and you search support Morgan Postada. Support
Morgan Posada. That's the family that you're listening to here.
He and his son are both on the line with
us right now. Well, Morgan, and to your son there,
we are very very sorry about the state of things
and what has happened now, and we know there's so
(32:10):
much good in this city and people want to come
out and they want to help, and I think that
they'll respond to this conversation. Support. Morgan puts out on
the GoFundMe page. God bless you.
Speaker 11 (32:21):
Okay, thank you very much.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Okay, big hugs to you, your dad and your sister,
your family.
Speaker 10 (32:28):
Okay, thank you, bye bye.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
The Posada family breaks my heart. It is heartbreaking. In
there are just the plethoro stories like this. Yeah, seecrest
with you, thanks for listening to us. So many weddings
going on, so many weddings just on this staff there.
I guess still going to happen as planned. Love knows
no rest and Tanya's having her her numptials are coming
(32:58):
up in a few weeks. This springs. Yeah, yeah, I
haven't heard a reference like that. Yeah at all. Actually,
should you take a look at what you're doing? You're
getting married, but a lot of brides and grooms send
out sort of a list of things to not do. Yeah,
dress codes.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Dress codes are expected, I think at weddings. But one
couple's very specific request has sparked this debate on social media.
And it all began last month when a person expressed
her dislike towards anybody bringing an Apple Watch or a
smart watch or wearing a smart watch at their wedding.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
And what was the reason.
Speaker 2 (33:34):
Well, one of the reasons is that it's a distraction
and maybe you can factor in, like let's say you're
getting married this week, next week around this time.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
I mean we're in NFL.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
Playoffs, like super Bowls coming up, like checking scores, checking scores.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
Things like that.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
I mean, I've I've been at weddings sometimes during a
big game and like they'll have the game on in
like the bar outside of the ballroom or whatever, and
then all the guys are over there watching the game
and not enjoying the wedding.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
Really see, dislike that.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
And I actually one of the dates that was open
for our wedding was Super Bowl, Didn't I tell you?
Speaker 1 (34:07):
And I was like, no, could do you imagine? What
about I'm just throwing uh, I'm playing Devil's advocate here,
But what about if your kids are home with the
babysitter and you want to check on your kids.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
I think the rule should just be for the ceremony, right,
because that is, you know, no more than twenty minutes,
thirty minutes at the most, unless it's a Catholic.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
You know, some hour and a half.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
Well that's a full mask, you know.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
I get that we're going to move right through yours,
aren't we it's gonna be. I don't I don't necessarily
mind it.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
I understand the no, like the no phones or don't
please don't videotape during the ceremony. That if you want
to get that nitty gritty, fine, But the app the watch,
It's like, how much more distraction can that be?
Speaker 1 (34:51):
It's distracting people pulling out their phones on their watches.
But Tanya, don't make it longer than twenty minutes, like
the serious Yeah, mine was like fifteen minutes. Yeah, minutes time,
we're looking like twenty minutes. Yeah, keep the bar open,
like taking shots during the ceremony. Yeah, I have to perform.
I might have one a lot of pressure.
Speaker 6 (35:13):
I know.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
You don't have to memorize anything, like you can have
it all written. Yes, it's a nice little book. Oh
I'm going to read from note cards. Have you met me?
I'm gonna memorize it like I do questions on the
red carpet.
Speaker 2 (35:22):
Ryan is going to bring a teleprompter, teleprompter, shoe cards.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
Melinda got a couple of roll ins on the tape.
Take a look at the tape. Take a look, take
a look, Oh so good, funny. Tani and Robbie wrapping
me up with the q son. Get this party started.

Margie in Altadena lost their family home. They've had this
home for over forty years. Margie Gochez and her family
lost the home in the Eton fire. She set up
a go Fundme page, which we'll get to here, just
to try and amplify those of you have these go
fundme pages. We're here for you. Her niece said in
(40:30):
the go fundme post, this home is the house we
celebrate holidays and birthdays in those walls. Have so many memories,
so many priceless memories have been created. Here are beloved
grandparents spent their final days in this home. And now
it's the reality for a lot of families. But to
lose a home that's been in your family for generations, Margie,
(40:52):
how are you doing?
Speaker 5 (40:55):
Ryan's not so good. Oh understand, you know, I'm taking
it day by game because it's so overwhelming, you know,
it's I can't even think about the way the house looks.
It's not the value of the home. It's all the
(41:16):
memories we've built there. You know, both of my parents
died there. That was the last wish before they died,
that they die in their home. And they did you know,
all the pictures we had, all the all the just everything.
You know, my dad was so proud of the property.
He planet trees, We had oranges and tangerines and and
(41:41):
just a lot of things, you know, the home that
reminded us of him and her. You know, it was
just a beautiful little So they were going to celebrate
one hundred years for those all those houses that were
called James Cottage, they were built back to the nineteen
hundreds and they were going to celebrate one hundred years.
(42:03):
We were going to have a black party because our
community was so tight, you know, we all looked after
each other. We were multi culture, different people there. You know,
there were Caucasians, black, white. It was just a thriving
community and we all help each other. And no, it's good,
it's completely good.
Speaker 1 (42:28):
Breaks for you and your neighbors who are all on
this street. And what a beautiful thing to have a
community like that, to be able to lean on each
other from all different places of the world, all different
places in life. Margie go Chaz is with us now,
and this is the this is what people are feeling.
You know, they're not concerned about the value of the house,
(42:48):
the value the memories that they've wasted with these generational homes.
And so Marchie, where have you and your family gone? Now?
Speaker 5 (42:56):
Well, we the first we were able to afford a
hotel is we I have respiratory problems. I'm on oxygen
twenty four to seven. I couldn't be around when there's
a lot of smoke because then I will end up
in the hospital. So we went to Santa Clare in
a hotel. But I could only afford to stay there
a few days. But thank God. You know, people have
(43:18):
come through, but you're not going to believe they can
come through. You know this this great band the fourth
they opened UH here in Manadelo. They opened a whole
floor they've rented and they will they give us a
room some staying here still Thursday. I don't know where
(43:38):
I'm going to go from there, but at least for
now I have a stable place and I'm here. You know,
thank you to what Seida. You know that they're God
bless them, God bless them abundantly.
Speaker 1 (43:51):
And then I'm going to ask you about the place
you're staying in now. Do you have to leave on
Thursday or is it because you need the money to
pay for it?
Speaker 5 (43:59):
Well, I don't have the money to pay for it,
so I have to find this. I have to find
another place. You know. My sister also lost her home
in Altadena. I mean it affected all our family. So
my sister also, it's saying she was able to get
a room here with us and in uh because she
(44:20):
lost her family. She lived above us. And if she
even lost her you know, her turtles. She had a
turtles for twenty seven years and we just couldn't get
her out on time, or to die.
Speaker 1 (44:34):
I'm sure so are. There are no words to say
in a moment like this. There's there's nothing that can
help that is in the form of words. This is
the Gochez family. I will tell you this, Margie. I
want to pay for your place, so you'll let me
take care of that for a little bit longer for you.
(44:55):
It's the smallest, tiniest thing we can do. But I
don't want to rush out of there tomorrow. So if
you I'm gonna put you on hold, and if you
tell us, tell me how much it is per night.
I want to extend your stay there.
Speaker 5 (45:10):
Thank you so much, right, thank you. You don't know
how preciative, so appreciative to the community, because we only
walked out with the clothes we had on, and people
have been donating clothes, you know. We had a lady
brought us some food yesterday. I mean, it's been overwhelming,
(45:31):
overwhelm me.
Speaker 1 (45:33):
Well take a so much, take a moment to not
have to rush out of there tomorrow. Well you tell
me how many, I'll I'll make sure you don't have
to rush out of there. That's what I'm saying to you.
Speaker 5 (45:47):
Thank you so much and we'll get.
Speaker 1 (45:48):
This to you. I'm gonna figure out a method to
get this to you right away. So Margie, God bless you,
and to your sister, and to your family and to
the community, now to Dina. I mean, it's just it's heartbreaking.
You know, people people all over the world are seeing it,
but I don't know that you get it unless you're here.
Speaker 5 (46:06):
Yeah. Our old neighbor down the street, he didn't make
it out on sex so perish, you know, it's down
his body. Oh my, Yeah, it's just I mean, there
were so many elderly people that lived there that I am.
I am not going to be surprised that they're gonna
(46:28):
find a lot of you know, up dead people there.
They have died because it just could out on time. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (46:36):
I just can't imagine the stress, the complexity of this
for you. It's just unbelievable. Margie. We're here for you
if you ever want to talk or you need anything,
We're here every single day. I want you to know
that I'm going to put you on hold. Don't hang up, Margie.
I'm gonna put you on a hold so I can
take care of your hotel. I so much, it's my pleasure.
(47:03):
It's my pleasure. You can live for you. Okay, God
bless you, Margie. Hold on one second. I mean that
is just devastating, and that story is echoed with so
many people. That's the thing. So many people are in
the same situation. So inside our updated and revamped iHeartRadio

sincere gratitude for you all listening to your show in

gratitude for Ryan and his foundation. I have a medically

escape for anybody it's going through something in a pediatric hospital.

thinks I'm attractive, Nelson thinks my name is Brian, and
Elizabeth is doing angels work there as a nurse. I
appreciate all of you, love it all.

it just comes out like the bee.
Speaker 1 (50:36):
