So we're going to start our Halloween shows today. We're
going to do things different. We have a panel of
guests that are going to hang out with us through
the entirety of the show, talking about places you can go,
talking about foods you can make, and all kinds of
things around the holidays. I'm in it. I'm done. I'm ready.
I'm ready, ready for the holidays, and I want to

(00:54):

Speaker 1 (01:01):
Come on, Kayla, I'm sorry, I just was.

Speaker 3 (01:04):
We were supposed to be at Marongbo, so that's where
my mind is. And when you say things just so.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
You're into night life mode right now.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Yeah, I was asking for We were we're gonna be
out there a wine event. I think things got postponed
to a different date at the last minute. So Kayla
and I were both we had rooms. My wife and
my boy was gonna meet me out there and we
were gonna we already were tasty. All the food we
knew we were gonna get. And if you've ever had

(01:32):
food at Marongo, you know what we're talking about. But
you know, the pool, the lazy river, some gaming. I
was gonna sit at the tables, do a little black jack. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
I had that burden a soup soup last time. Yeah,
that was really really amazing because my mind written free.
I was so excited to try it again. And then
we had this amazing pizza one year that just.

Speaker 4 (01:55):
So good. Oh my god. I just I was really
looking forward to eating.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
The food and maybe, oh my god, and then.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
That really yelling chef. You know the chef.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
They're all good looking chefs.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
That's true, That's what I was talking about. And now
we're here, I'm just gonna stare at you what you mean.
That's hurtful, I know, and unnecessarily so a little bit.
If I want to do this I'd have Shandon Farm
produce the show.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
I'm just I was just saying, what the world is thinking.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
You talk about Steven?

Speaker 4 (02:23):
Yeah, yeah, he's a cutie.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
He bench presses buicks, Yeah he does.

Speaker 4 (02:28):
He looks like it. Yeah, it's very It makes the
show fly by.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
Dang means a cutie pie there, Yeah, yeah, they're all
cuty pies and the cook.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
Yet I'm here with you two five, So what's what's
the technical of the week? Sir?

Speaker 2 (02:41):
You know it's not a winning proposition on my end either.
Computers all busted up. You come here with an attitude
that I'm hungry, You're angry. That's what it is, all right.
A couple of quick things. I am so thankful for
you folks. How generous. Oh, Steve Kregeate just made one

(03:07):
hundred dollars donation to Union Rescue Mission. I wanted to
tell you about that briefly. They're doing Over the Edge
again today. I did it yesterday. But the Union Rescue Mission,
their mission is the way home this year. And I
got to tell you I fell in love with them
last year. Amy King and I went and met with
him last year. Or asked them a bunch of questions.

(03:28):
Both Amy and I are frustrated with the way LA
and Southern California as a whole deals with the homeless crisis.
And the Union Rescue Mission gets no money from the
federal government, and you want to know why, because they're
a dry house. You have to want to get sober,
you have to want to get off drugs to be

(03:49):
a part of their program because they want you to
stay off the streets. So they have programs for learning,
how to do skills, how to go back to work,
all these things, and you can't do them when you're
on drugs or drinking. So by doing that they can't
get the money. That's just not how the federal government works. Now,

(04:13):
they can work locally with some programs, but they got
to know. They have their strict rules for doing it right.
So Amy King and I yesterday went over the Edge,
which is a program they do, and it was to
raise awareness about the Union Rescue Mission and that the
fact they do it right last year, so in love,

(04:34):
I fell with them. They became one of my monthly charities,
so I'm not asking you to do anything that I
don't do.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
I also put my money onto this.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
Program because I just really believe in it, and I'm
sick of hearing promises that aren't paid off. I'm sick
of people saying they're doing something and not doing it
looking at you mayor bas so. In this particular, one
thousand people actually got back.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
Home last year through the Union Rescue Mission.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
That's real people with real lives that have been really changed.
So if you find it in your heart you feel
moved or led to donate, I'm gonna be asking you
throughout the program today. The website is you are m

(05:29):
Over the Edge, which is the program we were a
part of. Your m dot org slash ote. You go there,
you'll see Team KFI. Click on the Team KFI button

(05:50):
or you can give to Amy King or anyone. The
fact is it goes to the same place, but you
guys pulled it out yesterday and can continued to donate
throughout the night.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
And I'm just thrilled.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
I spent the morning responding, going on the page and
responding to all of you that donated. Just I'm so
thankful and I hope you see that. But Stephen donated
just right now, and I thank you so much for
your generous contribution. It will go, it will actually be used,

(06:23):
it will go to a great cause. So again RM
dot org slash ote. Look for the KFI little button
you press on that says members click on that and
you'll see my little face on there or huge faces
the case may be, and you can click on that.
I will tell you yesterday. So it's the second year

(06:45):
I did this. It's a about a two hundred and
fifty foot repel down the side of the Hilton in
Universal City, So what you're looking at is twenty five stories, right,
so it's about ten feet per story. And last year
I just did it. Got up there. They train you

(07:06):
really well. You trust the men and women that are
doing it, that are harnessing you up, and they're checking
and rechecking, asking a bunch of questions, doing what have you?
They do all those things and you feel totally absolutely safe.
I got less safe once I got down and got

(07:28):
on the streets of Los Angeles. But yeah, basically, so
I got up there. You have one rule. Don't look down.
That's it.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
That's your rule.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
I'm definitely afraid of heights, can't stand them, knees buckle,
get weak at the shakes, all of that, which is
why I do these things.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
I think it's important.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
And so I got over the bar at the top
that really puts you on the edge.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
You're on the ledge.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
You are now going to go over and you sit back,
which is unnaturally You're going to sit back on yourself
and go down. And I just out of the corner
of my left eye saw the freeway. I could see
the freeway and I could see the distance, and my
knees buckled, and I went, oh, no, it's in your head. Oh,

(08:16):
it's in your head. And I looked at the CEO
Mark and I go, Mark, I did it. I looked down.
It's in my head, man, it's in my head. And
the great team they're like, it's okay, you're good, you're good.
Breathe through it, you're good. We got you the whole way.
We got you. And I said, I know, man, it's
not on you guys. This is in my head. Let
me get it. And everything goes through your head. You
want to get down, You want to just hey, say, hey,

(08:39):
you know what. I gave it my best, but I've
done it before, and I'm like, I'll do it again.
My wife and my son she pulled him out of
school to watch again, and so.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
I just did it.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
You get you sit back, you thank God for the
people that are up there with your safety. And then
you go down. And then the last thing is, you know,
I'm a guy. Guys want to be strong. And you
start going backwards and I'm like, look at me, man,
I'm like, I bet I look like Tom Cruise coming
down like this, It's okay. And then it's a reflective

(09:12):
building with like mirrors basically, and I see that my
my pants are pulled up. You can see my socks,
and I'm rolling backwards and my ponsone is coming out.
I'm like, my fat rolls are coming out, and I'm
leaning back and I'm like, not what I had hoped.

(09:35):
But they did a nice job. They took some great pictures.
And there's one that's kind of interesting. I'm leaning back
with my arms open at one point and my legs
crossed Tom Cruise.

Speaker 4 (09:46):
That's really cool.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
It's a cool picture. It looks a little Jesus.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
Like the host of the show. You're meant to do that.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
Anyways, It's on my Instagram. I put it there. They
did a nice video. You can go to Fork Reporter
Fork Reporter and see that. I'm very proud that I
just bit the bullet and did it and just said,
you know, we got to do things to push ourselves.
I don't like being afraid of anything. I think it's
healthy to have fears because it protects you from getting hurt.

(10:16):
But there's phobias which are not real that you have
to push through. And so I'm glad I did it again,
but it was a different experience the second time for sure.
Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for
all your donations. They mean a lot. Every single one
of you that made a comment are donated. I responded
to I hope I got everybody this morning and Amy

Week when we return.

Speaker 2 (11:12):

Speaker 1 (11:30):

Speaker 2 (11:33):
The fact is it goes to the same place and
I just very very much appreciate it as we continue
to get as much as we can for them. Also,
this is our Halloween start to the Halloween season for us,
and we were going to start next week, but we
decided to do it today and wanted to go over
a couple things very easy to give you some ideas

(11:55):
for the holidays. Okay, you know the rice Krispy treats.
Everybody knows how to make those, right. Here's a couple
of quick things that you can do to juge them
up a bit. You can put orange food coloring in
them and make them into balls like pumpkins, and you
can use a little green not twizzler, but a little

(12:18):
green piece of candy twists at the top, similar to licorice.

Speaker 1 (12:21):
They make green colored licorice and all that.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
You can even use food the gosh fruit wraps, fruit
rolls and cut those into the jack lantern face and
make yourself pumpkins. You can put chocolate or brown food
coloring and green food coloring and make a witch's hat
with it. You can also do green and purple food
coloring and do them in the normal sheet form that

(12:46):
you would do your rice crispy treats. But a really
fun addition, and we have these at our house all
the time, is candy eyeballs. There are decorations. There's sugar
decorations that you would put on a cake or cupcake
or even cookies, and they're blasts. They come in different
sizes and you can put the different sizes on top

(13:06):
of those rice Crispy treats and then you can cut
them into squares and they look like little Halloween monsters.
But these types of things I think are simple to do,
they're fun and the kids love them. Now normally during
Christmas we're doing gingerbread houses, same premise, but do a

(13:27):
haunted gingerbread house.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
So we're talking. These eyeballs come in handy.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
In the windows, you can use checks mix or the
checks Sweet Checks as the top of the roof. You
can use little pieces of like Hershey's chocolate and stick
them into crushed up oreos like the ground and it
will look like little tombstones. All these types of things
fun for kids to do at the table, funds for

(13:54):
adults to do at the table during the holidays, to
enjoy things a good time.

Speaker 1 (14:00):
They are cookies.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
The Milano cookies are shaped like traditional tombstones. You can
cut them in half and use them that way as well.
I'm just trying to give you ideas that are real
visual because of what we do here. You get preshudo
and you put it over cheese and you make the
perscudo in the shape or the cheese in the shape
of like a skull or face, and then it looks

(14:24):
like a zombie. You can for the eyes. You can
use green olives with the pimentos in them. Just some
fun ways to kind of jizz up and spookify your foods.
We're gonna get into more of that later on today,
so stick around. Our guests are coming. It's going to
be the Fork Report in the Round today where we
have guests throughout the entirety of the show. They'll be

(14:46):
popping in and out as we talk about things to
do for the holidays that are fun and different making
things for the holidays. We're going to start with obviously
Halloween as we get into October.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
So go no where, it's the Fork Report.

Speaker 5 (15:01):

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
