Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
AM six forty, Andy Reismy.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Are here with you.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Game four of the World Series going on right now,
just down the street, relatively speaking, down there in uh
Dodger Stadium, not far from here, Toronto leading two to
one against our boys in blue. Been an interesting game, Sam,
Are you feeling a little nervous slightly top of.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
The seventh down two to one? I'm uh, yeah, yeah.
At this point, I am now biting my nail. You're
biting nervous, you know. And I thought we had enough
nail biting last night. I mean, that was absolutely insane.
And I got to a point watching Game three where
I just thought I was like, okay, all right, let's
move this along.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
It was so bad and I hate I don't even
want to say this. I was in such a bad
way because I was tired that I was like, I
don't even care, I didn't care what happens. And then
of course I was very happy that the Dodgers won.
Looks like Toronto just scored another run though, so we're
now three to one. Mmm. But you know, it's been
(01:13):
a really interesting, very close series, and I am assuming
it'll continue to be that way. Kind of reminds me
of the NBA Championships earlier this year when you had
the Indiana Pacers versus the Oklahoma City Thunder and it
was sort of does like whoever has the basketball last
is gonna win. And so it's always fun to see
(01:36):
two teams that are really closely matched and to watch
them go at go at it and go after each other.
Top of the seventh, no outs, Toronto just scored another run.
So we'll keep you updated on that game as we
move along here tonight.
Speaker 5 (01:53):
It's hot. Have you noticed hot today in the valley?
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Sticky?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Kind of humid san Ana winev had the first of
the season. But as we told you yesterday, we talked
to a National Weather Service meteorologist who said, look, this
is important. It's not gonna be as bad as January,
but it's still something to be aware of.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
Those temperatures continuing to come up.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
The good news is this weekend will be a little
cooler than originally as anticipated, but we're still looking at
thirty to forty fifty mile an hour gusts of wind,
even sustained winds going here through the rest of the week.
Conway was saying last hour, I think used to hear
Santa Anna is and it was sort of just like, okay, whatever,
But now here's Sant Anna and you'd to think, oh no,
(02:36):
not this again. There's inclement weather going on all over
the country here, or at least all over the continent. Way
way way out west, we've got hot temperatures, and Santa
Ana's with that kind of wind, but more serious wind
way out east. Hurricane Melissa now moving at least the
eye the I'm moving now over towards Cuba nine oh
(03:02):
four right now in Jamaica, where the hurricane just crossed
over a couple hours ago, anticipating it to reach Cuba
sometime at eleven PM tonight Eastern time, so that'll be
two o'clock in the morning here our time. It will
make landfall there in Cuba as a category four and
(03:22):
at this point, like I said, nine o'clock right now
in Jamaica, not a lot of communication to even know
how bad it is, but sparingly there are reports coming
out and anything that you can tell so far is
that it's not good. Things are not looking good there
(03:43):
as this category five storm crossed over Jamaica. Lots of
damage being reported, and like I said, it's nine pm tonight,
so you're talking about a very long night there, Jamaica's
Prime Minister said, devastating impacts wherever the eye hit the island.
(04:06):
Reports they have so far include damage to hospitals, significant
damage to residential property, housing, commercial property as well. The
corridor of impact, according to the Prime Minister of Jamaica,
is between the southwestern end of the island, parts of
areas if you're familiar with it, Sat Elizabeth, Manchester, parts
of Westmorland, and then it tracked to the north in
(04:28):
the northwest end of the island. But as we've watched
this storm materialize and make its way to Jamaica through
the Caribbean, if you've been following along with any of
the National Atmospheric Association or the Air Force weather trackers,
the hurricane hunters in these aircraft, I mean, it's incredible
that they fly these airplanes. A lot of them are
(04:52):
at least Noah flies the P three Orion, which is
a plane that has been I think they stopped making
them in the seventies, and it's a plane that is
an older turboprop aircraft and they fly basically at around
ten thousand feet ten to fifteen thousand for maybe a
little below.
Speaker 5 (05:06):
And the idea is.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
That they want to punch through the side of this
hurricane to get into the eye of the storm. And
what they're doing is they're taking all of these kinds
of readings to see how bad it is where it's going.
I mean, it's a data collection thing. And you might
wonder why in this day and age, in twenty twenty five,
do not send a drone. You don't risk any issues
with people. There's a couple of reasons for that. One
(05:29):
is that drones are less structurally sound than this aircraft.
Obviously they could build it a drone to be that way.
But the other thing is that when you've got that
kind of communication issue with all that storm, whether all
the thunderstorms and all the things that surround the storm,
(05:52):
you wouldn't have the ability to communicate with that aircraft.
So you've got people who braver than I by a million,
hop into these planes, some of them air force members,
some of them members of the National Oceanic Atmosphere Administra. Oh,
no I lost it.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Noah.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
They're members of NOAH. And they go and they just
fly a couple hours into into the eye of the storm.
And you look at these videos from the eye of
the storm for Melissa, and it's absolutely astounding. These hurricane
trackers are saying, this is stuff that we've never seen before.
As a matter of fact, they recorded one of the
lowest millibar pressures low pressures ever recorded. Isn't that wild?
(06:38):
Eight hundred and ninety three milibar pressure. It is one
of the most intense Atlantic hurricanes on record. Normally our
barometric pressure is like eleven hundred or something like that.
And they go into these storm areas, especially this is
before landfall in Jamaica, and they drop these things called
drop signs, and they're basic, these little tubes that have
(07:03):
the ability to communicate air pressure and wind speed and
all temperature things like that, humidity, all back to the aircraft.
And one of the guys was on TMZ yesterday because
he was doing an interview with CNN and it was
so rough that he threw up in the middle of
his interview.
Speaker 5 (07:20):
Did you see that, Ronner?
Speaker 3 (07:21):
No?
Speaker 2 (07:22):
No, I want to, Well, there's no sound, so I
can't play it on the radio. It doesn't mean anything.
But if you watch the video and you can see
this you'll see he he raffs, he tosses his cookies
because it's so turbulent there.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
I like a nice unscripted TV moment, even if that
includes the loss of uh one or more botlely functions.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
And check this out his name? Are you ready for this?
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Bringing Matthew Capucci? Ain't that just the way? Isn't that
the best?
Speaker 3 (07:55):
I always wondered why they felt like they had to
send reporters right out into the world part of whatever
weather disaster there was.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
It is absurd, and I have been sort of lucky
that no one has taken me seriously enough as a
reporter to have to actually do any of that stuff.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
During the fires, I did a lot.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
I did a lot of coverage there because we're so
short staffed, and it's just like, go out, go find
a story to do that. But yeah, I think, you know,
the whole era of put this reporter out in the
middle of.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
The rain may be unnecessary.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
But Matthew Capucci is a hurricane hunter who's I think
he's on board either the Air Force aircraft or the
Noah aircraft. So if it was the Noah aircraft, it
would win the P three orion And this is a
plane that, like I said, it just deals with the
turbulence and it deals with the structural pressure of being
in the middle of a storm. And he did toss
his cookies, which is funny. But the man recovered beautifully,
(08:45):
which is very impressive.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Did he do it like mid sentence and then continue
on without so anyation.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
The reason there's no audio is because he was basically
up in a multi box, right. They had like a
triple box up, so they had the anchor another person
who was talking about the storm and then a live
look from the aircraft in the middle of the storm,
and so the audio was down so we didn't actually
hear anything. But you can see him hold up his cup,
I guess, and you know, do his business or whatever.
(09:12):
And then he kind of drops out of frame a
little bit because he's obviously trying to recover, and then
he comes back up but he's.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
Just like, Okay, I still got this. I'm still going.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
But everybody who is also on those aircraft, a lot
of them, a lot of these storm chasers will be
tweeting about their experiences. One crew member today named Andy
Hazelton says just landed after an absolutely insane flight. I
was processing the drops on data before it went out.
I saw the two hundred and nineteen not wind speed
above the surface, and I couldn't believe it. My display
(09:43):
only goes to one hundred by default. And they were
predicting basically tornado like damage all across Jamaica when that
hurricane hit landfall. So, like I said, nine o'clock just
passed nine to fifteen there right now in Jamaica. Hurricane
Melissa strengthening again from a category three as it passed
over Jamaica, now into a category four, likely to make
(10:06):
landfall at eleven o'clock local time in Cuba and continue
on into the Bahamas overnight. But very very difficult conditions
for people down there, very rough, long night. So we're
thinking about everybody down there for sure. So lots to
come here on KFI this evening, including music man Jack Primavera,
(10:26):
who's stopping by to talk about a new Beatles song.
Speaker 5 (10:29):
How about that? That's pretty exciting. How is that possible? Well,
you got to you gotta stay tuned, Mark Ronner. I
have to stay at work. You gotta stay here. Yeah,
you don't.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Tonight is not the night you can call and have
away even if and listen, if the guys who are
flying into hurricanes are are thrown up and then they
still keep working, I don't think we have any excuse.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
Their Vomit is an inspiration to us all.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
That's Mark Ronner in the KFI twenty four hour News.
It's I am six forty. We're live everywhere on the
iHeartRadio app. I'm Andy Reese my or If you'd like
to say hello, you can find me on the internet
at Andy KTLA. That's on Instagram, Send me a DM
hit me up on Twitter. Like one listener who let
me know that I made a mistake. I'm mad enough
(11:15):
to own up to it. But you never want to
make a mistake when it comes to aviation stuff because
those guys do not let you live it down. Those
guys are serious about what they know. I said that
the P three Orion was out of production in the
nineteen seventies.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
That is wrong.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
They produced that aircraft. Lockheed made that plane all the
way till nineteen ninety, from nineteen sixty one to nineteen ninety.
That's one of the aircraft that is used to fly
into hurricanes to get more data and readings. They also
the Air Force will use a C one thirty or
a version of a Hercules. And today they actually had
(11:53):
to turn around and come back because of the excessive
force from two urbulence on the aircraft. Wow, that's crazy.
Give you an idea how serious it was that the
guys who fly into those hurricanes in Hurricane Melissa today
turned around and came back because of how intense the
(12:15):
thunderstorm turbulence was. Hurricane turbulence Toronto. Six Dodgers, one bottom
of the seventh went out not looking good. Sam, No,
we don't talk about such things, okay, all right, Well
that's actually helpful for me, so I don't have to
pay attention anymore. Very good, very good locally though, back
in southern California, you know, we were stunned yesterday with
(12:37):
this chase, and then saddened to learn that the suspect
who had evaded police for a while before crashing his
motorcycle on the two ten freeway indeed had shot and
killed a deputy in San Berdin, Sambordino County. And now
a memorial in Sanbordino County in front of the Sheriff's
department is growing to honor that fallen deputy.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Take a listen, Michael.
Speaker 6 (13:05):
Sander, good evening. Yeah, there's a lot of hearts hurting
this evening. You know, if you have a loved one
in the law enforcement community, one of the biggest worries
you have is we'll he or she be coming home
after their shift. And tonight you can see that the
flowers keep coming. This memorial is growing for this fallen deputy.
There are flowers from various departments. We see Huntington Beach,
(13:25):
there's El Monte, and when we look down there's the
flowers here. There's even a card from the deputy's barber.
There are people who've arrived here today toddbaf flowers.
Speaker 7 (13:36):
They didn't even know him personally.
Speaker 6 (13:37):
They were stuck in the traffic out on the two
ten freeway, but they wanted to express their sadness and
support for the department and the deputy's family. You know,
the San Bordino County Sheriff's Department and the extended law
enforcement family is warning tonight one of their own tragically
killed in the line of duty.
Speaker 7 (14:04):
A security camera captured the gunfire.
Speaker 8 (14:06):
And I heard the shot, and then I heard the
shot again.
Speaker 6 (14:10):
Just after twelve thirty Monday afternoon, a shooting that left
San Bernardino County Deputy Andrew Nunyez dead.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
I pulled up right as they were pulling the deputy
out into the street and they were giving him CPR.
Speaker 6 (14:23):
Nunyaz was responding to a report of a man threatening
his girlfriend with a gun on Hollyhock Drive in Rancho Cucamonga.
The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department says deputies were fired
upon as.
Speaker 7 (14:33):
Soon as they arrived.
Speaker 6 (14:34):
Deputy nunya is shot in the head and taken to
the hospital where he died.
Speaker 5 (14:38):
It was really scary and very sad to hear that
he did.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Paps, Hey, we got a motorcycle that's hauling the suspect.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
Forty seven year old Angelo Jose Saldivar of San Bernardino,
fled on a motorcycle onto the two ten Freeway, riding
at speeds of more than one hundred and fifty miles
an hour in a wild pursuit until an off duty
officer in his own vehicle forced a crash with the suspect.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
That's this such an interesting part of this story that
we didn't really understand totally when it happened. We just
thought it was a guy who was in his car
who happened to just maybe change lanes, and it was
a circumstance that was an accident. And then I think
I can't remember, maybe yesterday there was some talk about
heck no, that guy changed lanes on purpose. There was
(15:24):
some talk that the suspect was going for a gun,
at least that's what it appeared to be happening there.
And Ronner, if you remember Reesemeyer, if you remember Mark Ronner,
there was this sort of interesting layer to the story
that this was an off duty officer, right who then
(15:45):
it was a San Berdino County Sheriff's Department deputy rather
who was off duty and then made himself on duty.
When he made himself on duty, the details we do
not know very interesting, but some of the conversations were around, okay,
he to use what could have been deadly force, and
was it justified?
Speaker 3 (16:06):
He was an narcotics deputy.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
He deliberately struck the motorcycle with his car, and policing
experts say that the action was justified, especially in the
context of knowing that he had shot an officer.
Speaker 5 (16:20):
Fascinating. I didn't think about that at all until today.
Speaker 6 (16:23):
Suspect air lifted to the hospital and it's in stable condition.
Monday night, hundreds of deputies and first responders honored nunyas
in a procession taking his body from the hospital to.
Speaker 7 (16:34):
The coroner's office.
Speaker 6 (16:35):
Nunya is just twenty eight years old, had served Rancho
Kuka Maonga for the past six years.
Speaker 7 (16:40):
He leaves behind a wife, a two year old daughter,
and a baby girl on the way.
Speaker 6 (16:45):
We are all very heartbroken for him in a law
enforcement as we have a high respect for law enforcement.
Speaker 7 (16:51):
Truly and deep belyieve we are so sorry for the
family and friends and everybody who's been infected by this
and tonight.
Speaker 6 (17:01):
In a written statement, his aunt told Ka Tale that
Andrew was one of the kindest, most selfless people you
could ever meet. He had a gentle heart, a warm smile,
and a way of making everyone around him feel loved
and seen. He was so excited to become a father
again and it's unbearable to know he won't get the
chance to hold his new baby girl. So back your
side again as we look at that.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
There is a go fundme setup that is now closed,
So if you google a fundraiser for Deputy Andrew Nunez.
There was one setup that raised around sixty two hundred
dollars and that now at least in the past few hours,
has been disabled. And there's a link in the comments
and update from the person who set this up who
says there's a new donations page that's been set up
(17:45):
by the Peace Officers Association of California PORIC. You can
find that at POURC dot org, which is the legitimate
place where all of those proceeds from the donations will
go to Rocks, who is his wife. I'm assuming and
Andrew's children and their unborn child as well. So they
(18:07):
currently have raised something like twenty four twenty five thousand
dollars on behalf here of Deputy Andrew Nuniez, twenty eight
years old, six year veteran of the department. Just heartbreaking,
terrible stuff. We've got some better things coming here though.
Lots to talk about here in southern California. We're keep
(18:28):
an eye on this Dodgers game. I don't have great
news over there, but we are talking to Jack Primavera
coming up in.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
A little bit.
Speaker 5 (18:35):
Plus, this is kind of exciting.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Ron.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
Are you ready for this?
Speaker 3 (18:38):
I think so. A monkey is out Would that be
the disease written monkey?
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Well, they say it's not this outbreak. Are we just
starting at the beginning of a bad movie? You know,
they would start as a joke. That's the thing that
everybody gets wrong about how these things start, because in
all the movies, everyone is immediately very serious.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
About this, about this infection. You never see this in
Curious George books.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
That's true. The man in yellow will have some explaining
to do a little too curious. It's KFIM six forty.
We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
It is KFI AM six forty. We're live everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app. I'm Andy Reesmeyer. If you'd like to
say hello, grab that uh, grab that phone, give us
a call one hundred five two zero one five three four.
Speaker 5 (19:31):
Let's open up them phone lines.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
Can we do that?
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Matthew one in one hundred five two zero one five
three four one hundred five two zero one KFI. Let
us know why you're not watching the Dodger game tonight,
what you're doing instead? And I understand if you just
said I've had it last night was too emotionally straining
for me, and now I just want to have a
quiet night listening to the radio somewhat quiet.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Did you stay awake until the bitter end? Lo? I did.
I was happy the game was over. By the time
I came into work today.
Speaker 5 (20:02):
Heard that. I was just I told you.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
I got to a point where I was like, I
don't care who wins. And I sit next to my girlfriend, like,
you know, she would wake up every couple of minutes
and be like, oh god, it's still going on. And
she likes sports. She likes watching sports, and I was like, yeah,
it's still happening. And you know, I will drink a
lot of coffee before I come in here to do
this show, so it's always it's always tough to wind
(20:25):
down afterwards.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
So it wasn't that bad.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
But as soon as Freddy Freeman hit that walk off
home run, what a good moment that.
Speaker 5 (20:32):
Was, we were just like, oh, she goes thank let's
go to bed.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
We were as happy that the Dodgers one as going
to bed was also in the cards. In studio with
Jack Primavera music man by trade, Hello Hello, and it's
so good to be back. I like that title too.
Uh music man, Jack Primavera, I think is it's gonna stick?
You are a producer on the Voice, Yes, sir, Yes, sir,
do a lot of their digital contents. So anytime you
see the coaches and they're doing some cool stuff, that's
(21:01):
Jack behind the camera a lot of times.
Speaker 8 (21:02):
Thank you, thank you. Yeah, it's a lot of fun.
We're in the knockouts right now. We got Joe Walsh
of Eagles Face Zach Brown helping us out. So life
time has life been good to him? So I think
life has been good? Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know he's
kind of a Desperado yeah, and living life in the
fast lane.
Speaker 5 (21:18):
That's right.
Speaker 8 (21:18):
I think he only actually played on living life in
the fast lane or living in the fast lane. He
wasn't on Desperado. He wasn't in yet, he wasn't in yet.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
No, but it's Joe.
Speaker 5 (21:25):
It works, man.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
I'll tell you what that song I know we're getting
off the rails here, that song Desperado. When you're up
into a certain point in your life, that song doesn't matter.
And then you reach a point in your life and
maybe you're cruising up the Canejo Grade one afternoon in
twenty twenty one, coming back from a weekend of debauchery
(21:46):
in Santa Barbara and you're coming back to your little
life in the valley.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
This is a.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Theoretical situation, of course, of course, and that song comes
on the radio and you just it's just you hear
it for the first time and it's like you understand
what it means.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
Well, it's probably one of Don's finest. It's just the beautiful.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
And then of course are going to break down by
yourself crying in your late model BMW station wagon. This
is a theoretical situation. I'm just saying. There were there
were many, there were many. We were all desperado in
that moment.
Speaker 8 (22:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (22:15):
Yeah, beautiful song. So Joe Walsh is great. How is
he in person?
Speaker 3 (22:17):
You like him? Super nice?
Speaker 8 (22:18):
Yeah, so so so cool and you know, just really iconic.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
The whole crew was just like.
Speaker 8 (22:23):
Oh my gosh, Joe Walsh, you played a little guitar,
a little funk forty nuh really really cool.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Well, and you expect him to be a little wild.
I mean, as you've heard in his song, he lives
in hotels, tears out the walls.
Speaker 8 (22:33):
Yeah, but he makes the accountants pay for it all,
so it kind of like works out.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Yeah, but he does.
Speaker 5 (22:37):
He's you have him under control though he's not destroying
the voice set.
Speaker 8 (22:41):
One of the best things that he would say advice
is like, I can tell you maybe what to do,
but I can definitely tell you what not, which I
was like that perfect.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
Well it's worked for him man, all those guys.
Speaker 8 (22:52):
Yeah, you know, yeah, definitely. And Zac Brown is also
really cool too, so it's it's a fun time.
Speaker 5 (22:55):
Yeah, Zach Brown's great.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
So one of the things that was exciting here is
that the Beatles are out with a new song.
Speaker 5 (23:02):
How is that possible?
Speaker 8 (23:03):
Well, thank you for inviting me on because I could
speak for hours, days, weeks, years on this topic of
the Beatles.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Maybe unofficially, might be the pre eminent person who knows
more about the Beatles than anybody I know.
Speaker 8 (23:14):
I just love them so much. But yeah, it's coming
out on Well, the song's out, but it's on Anthology four. Yeah,
one through three is awesome. A lot of Anthology four
is actually out. You can see it, like half of
it is already available.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
But because they've been released before or because that they're
slowly just dropping this.
Speaker 8 (23:29):
Okay, So for example, like some is like the new
song that was leased released earlier this year, Real Love,
and then like that was like the aisk one.
Speaker 5 (23:38):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, which I don't love, but well.
Speaker 8 (23:40):
I think we can get into that later the pro
and con of it. But no, the one that came
out more recently is I just seen a Face. I
forget which take or version it was, but it's actually
it's take three on Anthology twenty twenty five. Why don't
we listen to it for just a second? Yes, and
then just a we're on the same page, and then
you tell me all about it.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
We're premiering a Beatles song on kfwenty five.
Speaker 5 (24:05):
How exciting is that?
Speaker 3 (24:05):
The right?
Speaker 5 (24:07):
Do you want to do it? The Beatles?
Speaker 3 (24:08):
With the Beatles with Jack and Andy.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
I've just had a face Take three.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Three light song, that's awesome. Lonely's going to.
Speaker 5 (24:29):
Okay wom two three.
Speaker 8 (24:36):
Three Theology series and like this one is specifically it's
a lot like the Peter Jackson documentary Get Back. It's
so cool to see them working and like see them
mess up and you're like, oh, the Beatles can mess up,
Like you see the creative process, and of course This
was on Help, which they weren't the Studio Wizards quite yet.
They're you know, early on, so like they're playing that
(24:57):
live like this take is like, yeah, you can see
how amazing they are and the singing is.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Amazing, and you know, they already had it as a band.
I think they probably were already close to their ten
thousand hours or whatever from playing live, and it just
it's just got such good, a good feel to it,
and it's funny to hear it as a more almost
like a folk song, which is really cool totally.
Speaker 8 (25:15):
I mean, it's like pretty close even like to the
original that appears on Help, but it's like once again
just seeing it so raw and just knowing that they're
doing it, yeah, in a live setting like like that.
It's just so talented. And that's what I think is
so cool about anthology. It's you're getting to hear the
kind of warts and all you're you need to hear
the mess ups that takes, the oh no, do it again,
you know, like jazz jokes here and there.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
It's just so fun.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
It is so funny that you say that, so as
I've told you before, and I don't know if I've
told this story on the radio. But I my first
introduction to the Beatles was through the Anthology series because
my dad came home in nineteen ninety five or whenever
they came out with the Anthology series. They came home
with the Anthology three. Yep, the later stuff, and that,
you know is basically I think White Album on yeah,
(25:56):
A revolver on End's right, yeah. And it's funny because
I grew up with that version of the Beatles. So
all of my versions of any White Album songy Oh
blood do oh blah da is completely different from Jude
is completely different. And so I would hear the you know,
because again, you didn't really hear that much different stuff
back then unless you had a CD or a record
or tape. And so as I grew up, but I
(26:18):
would hear other versions on the radio, I'd be mad
in a minute.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
This sucks. This sucks.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
I don't know if anybody has had that. I might
be the only person in the world who only heard
the Anthology series of the Beatles before the actual songs
came out.
Speaker 8 (26:32):
I think that is such a unique, unique experience. But
it's also really cool because once again you get to
hear them warts and all you totally hear these different things.
You get to I would say, a more human version
of the Beatles without like the studio Wizardry, which we loved, don't. Yeah,
but it is really cool to hear early versions, different takes,
see how they like tried to do it, and then
what ends up the final So I love it. I'm
so excited for four. It's going to be great.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
What do you think, mister Ronner? Are they going to
be a hit? I love the Beatles. I can't wait
to hear more of this stuff.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
I love them. It's good stuff.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
All right, quick break when we come back more with
mister music man, Jack Primavera. We're talking AI music. Don't
nobody go nowhere. It's I Am six forty.
Speaker 5 (27:08):
We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Thanks to him.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
It's I Am six forty live everywhere in the iHeart
Radio app.
Speaker 5 (27:14):
Just before eight o'clock.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Here, I'm Andy Reesmeyer in studio with Jack Primavera, producer
at the Voice and just a lover of music.
Speaker 5 (27:22):
A music expert. I will have to say, this.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Is kind of alarming, I think, to purists, but also
people who just like music in general. NPR talking about
this sort of NPR, by.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
The way, is a radio. I think they do radio
for that, Yeah, I'm not sure.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
But talk about the story where there was this indie
rock guy named Luke Temple. He's a musician here in
LA and he used to be an indie rock band
called Here we Go Magic. Now they have not come
out with any music since twenty fifteen, and all of
a sudden, on Monday a few weeks ago, he started
getting a bunch of messages from people saying, hey, there's
(28:02):
you release new music. We Go Magic has got a
new track and it doesn't sound like you. He goes
and looks it up Spotify, title, YouTube, all the streaming
platforms the song by his band, Here we Go Magic
has been released except it. Of course, you know where
we're going with This is not anything to do with
(28:24):
the artist Luke. It is AI one d Ai creation.
And this isn't just Luke. This is happening all over
the place where artists are waking up to their Spotify
pages being bombarded with other songs that are made by
computers that are not theirs. What a crazy thing. What
(28:47):
is wild is that there seems to be very little
recourse with this as far as Spotify or Title or
Apple Music goes. If you use one of these services
to upload and release your music like a lander or
tunecore CD baby, you basically just check a box saying
(29:09):
I have the rights to this music. It's not AI
and that's it the way it goes and it gets published.
So aislop of course, invading all these platforms and in
a lot of situations could potentially be taking away revenue changing,
ruining these artists profiles that they've worked hard to cultivate.
(29:30):
It's a weird thing, isn't it. I mean, honestly, it
is so weird. And like you said, it's not just
here we go magic.
Speaker 8 (29:36):
It's like it is happening with a lot of artists
and I think that's what's crazy. And a lot of
artists that have been kind of on hiatus for a while,
it's like they're kind of targeting that to get people
like excited, Oh my gosh, artist I love is coming back. Ah,
And it's just it's crazy, And like you said, it's
really tough to spot and stop because of how much
tools are available and how easy it is to get
(29:57):
stuff up on these platforms. Like it's a good thing.
It's you can get your music up on platform. That's
a good thing that but now it's kind of backfire
and it's like, well, maybe there should be a little
bit more checks and balances with this.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
And I don't know how you even are able to
fix this because nowadays, not only is it so good
that you can't tell with your own ears if something
is real or AI, but the apps certainly don't have
the ability to have an algorithm to say, oh that
was this is partially generated by AI, or it wasn't
generated by AI. I mean, it's we're just not there yet.
I want to give you an example here of something
(30:27):
that is really again blowing my mind. We're talking about
how crazy AI music has become.
Speaker 5 (30:32):
This is a cover.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
This is an AI cover of a yacht rock song
done in a butt rock song style from the early
two thousands.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
Listen to this, don't.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (31:18):
First of all, this rocks.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Unfortunately, Yeah, it's very cool because the original song is awesome.
Speaker 8 (31:26):
And if a band was covering this and real musicians
were doing this version, I'd be like rock on. Like
we said, it's all AI. There's no humanity in it.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
And Christopher Cross has nothing to do with this, that's great.
The guy singing it who sounds like he might have
been I don't know a band that opened for Nickelback
or whatever on their early two thousands tour. That's not
even real. And it's not real at all, none of it,
the singing, none of it.
Speaker 8 (31:50):
And there's all kinds of things out there where you
can hear like Elvis doing Michael Jackson's songs and it
sounds like Elvis's voice doing Thriller or you know, beat it.
It's easy what the possibilities are with it. But like
once again, no human touch, No.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
Had Rod Rob Cavallo, producer here on the show on
the weekend, and I asked him what do you do
about this? And he's like, well, you know, AI for
the most part, just takes other stuff that's already been made.
And as humans, especially when it comes to art, we
want things that will blow our minds, that are that
are daring, that are new and are exciting. I don't
know where this Christopher Cross right, like the winday I
(32:27):
covered lines up with that, but fascinating stuff.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Jack.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
