Andy breaks down the Dodgers’ Game 4 loss and dives into the wild world of music tech, from Charlie Puth’s “Professor Puth” series to the AI-assisted sounds shaping pop. Then, Andy examines Santa Monica’s $200M crisis and what went wrong with the Third Street Promenade. Plus: a monkey truck crash in Jasper County sparks concern (and confusion) over the phrase “not infectious,” and Andy stirs up a surprisingly heated debate: toilet seat up or down when not in use?

Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to kfi AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
There was a desert wind blowing that night, one of
those hot, dry Santa Ana's that come down through the
mountain passes and curl your hair, make your nerves jump
and your skin itch. On nights like that, every booze
party ends in a fight. Meek little wives feel the
edge of the carving knife and study their husband's necks.
(00:30):
Anything could happen. You could even get a full glass
of beer at a cocktail lounge, and maybe on a
hot October night like tonight, the world series will be
tied two to two.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
Good evening.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
I'm Andy REESEMYER'SFI AM six forty. We're live everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app. Look at us. Another Santa Ana win
event here. But the good news is nothing like we
saw back in January. First of the season underway today
and Wednesday, warmer conditions than normal, warmer to the coast
(01:08):
and the valleys, gusty winds across the typical wind prone
corridor of La Inventora County. We're looking at local areas
of critical fire weather and red flag warnings, so it
is important to stay vigilant wind gusts generally between twenty
and forty miles an hour across higher terrain. Noticeably strong
(01:31):
wind this afternoon, a little offshore wind, and especially if
you're out there towards the towards the water, you feel it.
Heat advisory in effect here for Ohi Valley, Lake Casidas
all the way till seven pm Wednesday. We've got localized
red flag warnings in effect all the way until six
pm on Wednesday for the Santa Susanna Mountains, Southeastern Inventor
County Valleys, Western San Gabriel Mountains as well.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
So stay safe out there.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Los Angeles in studio here with AK Primavera.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Dodgers didn't do what we didn't.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
We didn't have a good night, but I will say this,
at least it's interesting.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
It's a good series. It's a good series. Last night
was enough action for a while.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Series is tied. And I think we said this before.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
You know, you do want some kind of drama, and
we're getting drama for Suah.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
You don't want to blow out either way, right, You
want it to be fun for your team, but you
also don't want your team to be blown out.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
This is what we want. We want to fight.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Yeah, I wish it wouldn't have been six to one.
That's kind of sad, Sam, What.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Is six to two? I think six to two was that?
How it was the final? Yeah, they got one more. Yeah,
they tried to scrap back into it.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
But usually after a game like you had last night,
wherever it was such a relief to win, you kind
of expect an emotional letdown a little bit going into
the next game. The problem is that this was game four.
Game four is usually the most pivotal game in a series.
It either makes it so one team has a dominant
three to one lead or we have.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
A legit series.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
Now for this World Series, it comes down to whoever
can win the two games. And you know, oh, the
Dodgers are real good, so they're a championship team, they're
the defending champions.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
But the Blue Jays can put up runs in a hurry.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
So yeah, I'm scared of the Blue Jays, but I
still have faith in my Dodger Blue very good, Sam,
Do you think they're gonna be I mean, I know,
obviously with another game tomorrow night, but then we're back
to Toronto on Friday. Yeah, And I guess my prediction
for the series was wrong. I had Dodgers in five,
so now I'm gonna amend it to Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
And six technically not Yeah, there you go. All right.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Well, we've been talking about music and AI music and
real music and not real music, and I think we
were gonna go here with a new song by Charlie Pooth,
which I think is kind of interesting because this is
somebody who I believe as a musician, you gotta love them,
because this is a guy who's doing a lot of
things that are referential to old school music, but he's
(03:48):
doing it all in the computer. Famously, he's a very
much like a pro tools wizard, and he's also somebody
who shares a lot of the magic. Was one of
those social media guys who figured out ahead of time,
I need to like break down my songs for people
to understand to learn about, and I think it actually
really helped him connect with a really, really solid, dedicated
audience of people.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Professor Pooth. That's a series right now, And have you
worked with him? He came on the Voice one time.
He was he's performed a few times, and then he
came on as an advisor and just the coolest, very
very talented, very very fun.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
He was a treat.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
So we'll listen to a song called changes here for
just a second, kind of get a vibe for like,
what's going on here in the world of music these days?
The Windows eight he call it.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
My god, that's been so.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Past one three point five? Is that what's happening over here?
I love this?
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Disagree.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
I am here for the sobra the late nineties or
late eighties early nineties sound as you know. Can can
we not ever leave this era just behind till AI
makes it a butt rocker?
Speaker 3 (05:10):
No, no, I can't wait.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Very cool, But this is what I wanted to show everybody,
is that I thought maybe he was inspired by another song.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Perhaps should we listen? I think we should.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
We'll see.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Take a listen.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
L Is it good?
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Is it too good?
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Is there inspiration there? Probably that is Andy in the Valley.
It's one of my one of my songs. It was
released way before this song came out back in twenty
twenty one. I think I think the inspiration is the
eighties for everyone.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Yeah, you're right, yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
But I'm ready for this. I'm ready for this to
have a have a moment again, you know.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
And Charlie back to him is like super cool. He
just recently on Fallon doing some stuff and like he
is that computer wizard. Yeah, like it references the old stuff,
but then is very modern with his production style.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
He's great.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
I'm a big fan and you know, I know that
the music industry is a tough place to be these days,
but I love it when people are really just doing
what they want to do, especially in a pop music capacity.
This is a guy who seems like he's really enjoying
what he is doing. So yeah, yeah, definitely. And what
was a there's a Taylor swift.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
When I first came on, we talked about Taylor line
where she's like we talked about how Charlie Poos should
be bigger than he is, Like she loves him, Like
the industry I feel like loves him. He's like a
very respected kind of like pop stuck me for a minute.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Though, he's huge. He's huge.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
What do you mean Charlie Poof should be bigger than
he is? I mean, like he's a pop star. What
are they talking about? He sells that arenas right?
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:57):
I mean he does. Yeah, we're gonna talk to Taylor
on this. This is a frame of reference thing because
Taylor Swift thinks she is. You know, she obviously is
as famous as she is, so anybody who's not as
famous as she is she thinks is.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
I think I think that was a That was a
Matti Healy song too, scrap in the bottom of look
at Swifty.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Well, Jack, it's always a pleasure to talk to you.
Thank you for having me on what what music should
we be listening to? And tell me more about Actually,
let's do this the voice. What's happening on the voice?
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Well, like I said, we're in the knockouts right now,
it's getting down. There's a couple more rounds left, but
the knockouts are you know. We we had the battles,
which is like essentially duets, so we're back to individual
performances and the big stick, if you will to it
all is like we have these mega mentors and that's
Joe Walsh and Zach Brown. So I like it as
a music nerd to watch at this round because you
(07:44):
get so much advice from these iconic musicians, you know,
Joe Walsh of of icon of all time and Zach
Brown a modern icon, and then you get to see
them give advice to these artists, and then you see
the artists take the advice hopefully and then form.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
It's a lot of fun. Jack bri Rivera check them
out on the voice. Thanks Andy making it possible. Thanks
for being here, mister music man. We've got lots coming
up later in the evening. We're checking out what's happening
at LAX. One of the terminals is being torn down.
How that might affect your travel plans. Plus Santa Monica.
Santa Monica is in a doom spiral, but they're trying
(08:19):
to pull out, pull up whatever that's all coming up.
It's KFI AM six forty. I'm Andy Reesmeyer. Thanks for
being with us this evening, licking our wounds. Moving into
a tide series here in the world series Dodgers Toronto
Dodgers in the Blue Jays rather La Toronto, tied two
(08:40):
to two as we eagerly anticipate tomorrow's game at Dodger
Stadium alongside the always enjoyable Sam and Mark Ronner.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Very kind of you.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Well, I'm trying to do my best here. Have you
heard about any of the other shut offs here?
Speaker 3 (09:01):
For so Cal Edison, No, I just had something I
think eight o'clock, but if you weren't listening, that's understandable.
Well I was listening.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
I just didn't know if we had any actual I
know there were there were things about warning that we
might have shut offs, so cal Edison customers warning that
they might lose power Tuesday through Wednesday afternoon. But it
is Tuesday, and it's Tuesday eight twenty and I haven't
seen any shut offs yet.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Right, Yeah, if you give me a minute, I can
track it down.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Oh yeah, no, no, you don't have to do that.
I just didn't know if you had heard, if you'd
heard it, if you'd heard it into the grapevine, if
anybody texted you said, hey, my power's out.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Yeah, the whisper stream hasn't reached me, hasn't reached it. No,
are you on the Wi Fi? I am. I'm a
member of the Wi Fi. No tattoo though, Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
I haven't in inked. No, that's well, you got to.
You got to share that password with somebody else before
they'll let you get let you in. I don't know
the rules yet. I don't know. I'm gonna have to
(09:58):
get jumped in.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Well until that occurs, Yes, we're just warning people that
there may be a chance that your power could be
shut off because of the Santa Anna win event public
public safety power shutoff a ps PS. Look how when
we give these little slick names stuff, Hey man, where
were you in the PSPs at twenty twenty five?
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Do you want me to replay the voicer story that
I had at eight o'clock with all the details. It's
thirty seconds. Yeah, I'll take a break. Okay, here we go.
Speaker 6 (10:31):
The utility is warning about fifty one thousand of its
customers to brace for potential public safety power shutoffs they
could start today. It comes with southern California facing critical
fire weather conditions. San Bernardino County is facing the greatest
risk of power shutoffs at more than thirty three thousand
customers In Los Angeles County, the warning applies to more
than seven thousand customers, with eighty five hundred customers in
(10:54):
Ventura County and fifteen hundred customers in Riverside County possibly impacted.
Daniel Martindale KFI new.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Now do you feel empowered having heard that? Yes?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Anytime Daniel Martindale does his sign off, let's gonna call
a sign off.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
What is it called a radio lockout? Yeah, it's emphatic,
isn't it.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
It's so good, Daniel Martindale, It's like he owns a
Chevy dealership.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Sometime before your time, we had a quite well known
reporter who sign off with something along the lines of
kf I News.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Oh, I know it. It's a legendary, I was. I
know it because I'm a listener. Yeah, okay, I listen
all day, every day, A p one, the dogs all listen.
Whenever I'm not at the house, KFI is on.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
I don't want to get off on too much of
a thing here, but I feel like when I listen
to those, my lockout is really inadequate. And I got
to think of something distinctive of my own.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Can you give us a run through of your of
your current lockout?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
And it's so mediocre that I'm embarrassed to do it now.
It's just KFI and my name. I don't I don't
have any kind of like John Tesh flourish for it. See,
and I think I have to develop it. I think so,
Mark Runner. It's something with a shriek. I don't know.
I mean, it's hey, bigfoot something. I'll get back to
(12:16):
you on it. I didn't mean to. No, No, what
are you talking about? You didn't mean to.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
I'm just gonna go on about Santa Monica. Have you
been lately. I went to school there. I spent a
lot of time there. I worked not far from there
for many years, and I guess I was in school
in twenty eleven is when I started going to school
there at Santa Monica College. Great school dropped out. Not
their fault, but it's really been struggling. And that's not
(12:44):
just because you go there and you look around and
you're like, oh, things are a little weird here. It's true.
They are in their worst fiscal crisis in years. There
was a two hundred and twenty nine million dollar settlement
related to a sex abuse by a former city Dispatch
one guy, two hundred and thirty million dollars in settlements.
(13:06):
They're also, of course, dealing with homelessness crime. City officials
are acknowledging that crime incidents have become more visible and volatile.
Businesses have abandoned the once thriving downtown. Not even Brandy
Melville wants to hang out there anymore. Retail office vacancy
rates among the highest in La County. Crowds previously packed.
(13:29):
The areas of the promenade and the city's famous pier
have dwindled. Is it any surprise to anybody who has
spent time there. It was ground zero for the crime
and homelessness that then expanded far out from the West side.
(13:53):
I think in the early twenty tens parts of Santa
Monica were as bad as downtown. I lived in both places.
I spent a lot of time in both places. But
now a new city council made up of many young
people who have been elected in the last two or
three years, have decided instead think about a comprehensive plan,
(14:13):
doubling police patrols, investing in crumbling infrastructure, and adding business
friendly permitting to get people to come back and do
business in Santa Monica. The Great Sam Rubin, whom I loved,
always used to say it's the only thing I ever
heard him say that was remote league. I don't even
(14:35):
think this is political. I think it's a wise statement.
It's that rich people will put up with a lot
of stuff, but what they won't put up with is crime.
And so when you see parts of Santa Monica where
a two bedroom house is six and a half million dollars,
not that bad, but it's expensive. Crime is something they
(14:56):
will not put up with. But, like I said, increasing
police patrols, enforcing misdemeanor ordinances, investing in infrastructure and new
community events, and taking a more business friendly brush, a
business friendly brush horsehair, perhaps to permits and fees. They're
(15:17):
looking for a rebirth, a renaissance of the city by
investing in ourselves. According to council member Dan Hall, he's
thirty eight years old good age. He is one of
five council members who, like I said, were joining the
council elected in either twenty twenty two or twenty four.
They are millennials, they are younger. There's also a new
city manager from Irvine named Oliver Che who used to
(15:41):
manage the city of Irvine, which we know is a
completely different experience than going to Anaheim. They have resources,
but the general fund is running a structural deficit of
nearly thirty million dollars a year, and most of that
is because of the funding drop from hotel taxes, sales tax, parking.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
It's not all.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Good because they are going to be generating additional revenue
by raising parking rates. That'll help, right, That'll get you
to go to Santa Monica when the parking is more
expensive and they're cutting the current ninety minute free parking
in downtown structures to thirty minutes. Really doing the people's work, man,
(16:25):
That's how we'll fix it. We'll get money from people
who are coming here so that we can make more
people come here.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
What people love is to be squeezed from every angle.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Right for things that are not their fault, you know,
like I want to go to the Banana Republic on
the promenade. It's not my fault that there's petty theft,
that there's homelessness, there's crime everywhere. I have never seen
the amount of just rampant violent crime that I saw
when I lived, when I went to school down there.
It would be normal to be walking down the promenade
(16:55):
and just look over and there's like a trail of
blood because a guy just got stabbed in front of
the ARII is a true story. They also plan on
moving the city's homeless shelter out of downtown. They're going
to create a large scale Santa Monica music festival next
year and upgrade the restrooms near the pier and Muscle Beach.
And how are they paying for all of this, they're
(17:17):
going to end their contract with the private ambulance operator,
which is going to save them three million dollars a year. Okay,
well let's a start. Where's the other twenty seven gonna
come from? I guess taxes, But it does make sense,
you know, if they make it more business friendly, which
I don't know that they're I don't know that they
even know how to do that. Like I said, reported
on that place, did a lot of city council meetings,
(17:37):
did a lot with smur They pretty much run Santa Monica,
and it's just in there. It is not a business
friendly place. They are very very progressive, proudly, but being
being there is a tough thing for the people who
live there for sure. All Right, I'm way over time.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
I am six forty. I mean Andy Reesemeier.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
We got an update on a story that broke a
little bit earlier today out of Mississippi. Heidelbeg Mississippi. I
think that that's the correct pronunciation. Jasper County. The Jasper
County Sheriff's Department reporting that there was an accident involving
a semi truck carrying twenty one monkeys. It is not
(18:27):
clear how the truck crashed or where the monkeys were
being taken, but we do know that the truck was
carrying reesis monkeys no relation. They are among the most
medically studied animals on the planet. We do have some
sound from a local Jasper television station from earlier today.
(18:48):
Let's listen so.
Speaker 7 (18:49):
Four and we do begin with breaking news. Officials in
Jasper County say all but one of the reesis monkeys
that escape after a truck overturned on Inters fifty nine
near Heidelberg had been youthanie. That truck was carrying the
animals from Tulane University when it crashed. The monkeys are
aggressive toward humans and require personal protective equipment to handle.
(19:09):
A statement from Tulane University says the monkeys involved in
the Jasper County crash were non infectious and belonged to
another research organization.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
It's weird to hear like, hey, they're not infectious, don't
worry about it. And we thought, wait, why would you
think that they were infectious? And that is because there
was a whole series of infections or reports rather that
these monkeys. This comes from the Jasper County Sheriff's Department
Facebook that the twenty one monkeys on board this truck
(19:40):
were infected with herpes.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Hepatitis? Who gave it to them? And COVID?
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Who gave?
Speaker 3 (19:48):
What are the key's doing?
Speaker 2 (19:51):
But Tulane says, non human primates at the Tulane National
Biomedical Research Center are provided to other research organizations to
advance scientific discovery. The the primates in question belonged to
another entity. I don't know what the other entity it
was referred to. This is clarifying this missing information and
are not infectious. We are actively collaborating with local authorities
(20:12):
and will send a team of animal care experts to
assist as needed. What is wild is that some citizen
video from the incident was uploaded to their app, and
apparently it was of so much interest to the users
of Citizen that people who were many miles like hundreds,
(20:34):
maybe even thousands of miles outside of Jasper County got
notified that this happened, including me oz walking the dog earlier,
and I looked down, I said, what happened where? And truly,
like I said, monkeys reportedly exposed to COVID nineteen hepatitis
c and herpes, and now there's some debate on whether
(20:54):
or not that's true, and initial reports that one monkey
remained on the loose after the crash might have been
incorrect because authorities, according to Citizen, are now saying that
three monkeys are at large. It's the beginning of at
least a very interesting movie. Didn't we have that movie
with Dustin Hoffman Outbreak? Yeah, it's exactly how it started.
(21:18):
And it's odd because I googled the before this was
like had made it outside of the individual reports. I
googled truck crash caring monkeys. You would be surprised at
how often this happens. Just do yourself a favor and
google monkey truck crash and maybe if you have to
set the specifics outside of where you know today so
(21:39):
you don't see all the news articles from today. It
happens like every few months. It's crazy out there.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
I think they have to like make laws against doing this.
If it's this common of a problem, they have to
do something. You're right, otherwise I was going to have
crash like COVID and like herpies and gonery infect the right.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
The new strain of COVID also comes with the side
of hepatitis and herpi's courtesy of some truck monkeys.
Speaker 5 (22:09):
I think if as long as you don't make out
with a monkey, you're fine.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
This has been that's a big ass, right, This has
been the story of my life.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
You go to the zoo and you look at them
in there and you think, oh, those are those are cool?
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (22:24):
I don't I will. We're out of time here. I
don't want to talk about making out with monkeys. But
what an unbelievable world we live in. A lot of news,
a lot of things going on still here coming up.
It's the question everybody wants. It is a good segue.
Should the toilet lid be open or closed when it's
not in use?
Speaker 3 (22:44):
That's a question.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Oh yeah, there's a lot of debate about this. I'm
not just saying do you put the lid down? Do
you put the top lid all the way down? I'll
hurry with the news. We have to get to this
AMAS ex forty. We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Good Evening on this Tuesday night, six to two, Blue
Jays win even and out the World Series.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
I thought there's.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Gonna be maybe some excitement tonight, hoping coming out of
last night that we were going to be at least
ending the game early enough with the wind to go
out and celebrate last night.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Basically I heard this.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
I don't know if this is true, but it does
make sense that they cut off beer sales, you know, obviously,
this is how they do it most sporting events. They'll
cut it off, you know, a quarter of the way over,
so if you're in, if you're in the last quarter,
usually you can't buy booze, you know, at like a
basketball game or football game.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
So the people stuck there all that time last night
had to suffer without beer.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
They sold beer for less time than they didn't sell
beer last night at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
That is unamericane.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
They you could see it in the eyes of the fans.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
They were like, can we hurry up?
Speaker 5 (23:55):
We either want to drown the rest of our sorrows
in a loss or go and celebrate and have more
to drink. And by the time it was time to
get out and they got out of the parking lot,
all the bars were closed.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
That's right, that's exactly right. You got to go home
and have a brew, have a brew. The thing is
that sobering up. You know, maybe you took it over
or somebody else trovia, you had a life buzz going.
You think, okay, I'll be good to the end of
the game, and you sober up because you're there for
six and a half hours and you're sobering up. It's cold.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
Nobody wins. Listen, It's no secret I'm not a massive
sports fanatic, but some of the best times you'll ever
have is a Cubs game at Wrigley Field in Chicago,
and the drunks in Chicago are the best part of
the game. If you remove that from the equation, why
have anything?
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Wellhen you look at places like Chicago, Boston, New York,
it's like you got to drink a lot because it's
so dang cold all the time. It's like how the
the cook on the Titanic survived because he was a
drunk in the cold.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
It's the solution to every problem cause of then that
and then becomes the and now you're doing Homer Simpson. Yeah, okay. Uh.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
The thing is you saw in the middle of like
the sixteenth inning, they the players like on the bench
had a charcoterie board.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Oh my god, what a bunch of hungry.
Speaker 5 (25:15):
They had all dinner plans that they had to can't right,
so everybody was like, yeah, we got to get something
over here.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
They had like fruit plates and charcooterie around.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
I'm wondering if Dodger Stadium has ever run out of
Dodger ducks because people, I'm I'm serious, people were going hungry.
They had some money coming in concession stands.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
I was also thinking about you know they played two
baseball games.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Yeah it was two full there's two full games that night.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
And then you wonder when they go to commercial, like
how do they are they running those commercials for two
B and five? I mean they run the Fox promos
probably without much conversation, but when they put in other commercials,
who's are they having conversations with, Like the people at
Toyota or Ford to say like, Okay, I got another
commercial coming up, do you want it?
Speaker 5 (26:01):
It's bonus spots they for us. It's it's bonus spots.
So it's a it's a make good essentially where we
give them. Run the Charger games, so I know, like
if the game goes to overtime, they'll have a one
minute bonus spot for an overtime break.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
What if the game goes into double overtime and it's
six and a half, we have hours long.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
We have a lot of contingencies to make sure that
we cover those breaks. And at that at that point,
the broadcasters also know how many commercial breaks that they
have left for the game, so they're gonna try to
conserve it or won't make plans to add more just
in case it's crazy.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
I was thinking, like, man, they get the run out
of commercials. Here some free one. You're never going to
run out of commercials. Yeah, we're happy to play it well,
And I was wondering, you know, it's like that's probably
more people viewing also at a certain point, because you
know that it's getting down to the wire and you
get a lot of people coming in.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Yeah. I don't know. We'll talk about it at our
next meeting. I'm sure.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Now the question becomes we're talking about bathroom etiquette. There's
a big debate always whether the toilet paper should be
over or under over right, that's the patent. Everybody pretty
much agrees over Yeah, that there shouldn't be a debate,
but there is a debate because we live in the world. Uh,
But as far as the lid goes Now, I'm not
talking about the seat. The seat obviously, if you if
(27:19):
you live with women at all in your life or
as civilized human, the seat's got to go down. But
the lid does the lid go down? I grew up
in a household where the seat and lid always had
to be down. That was just the way it was,
That was the rule. But I know some people aren't
like that. And doctors and plumbing experts. How do you
(27:43):
become a plumbing expert?
Speaker 3 (27:45):
I'm not sure. I want to know. Eat a lot
of fiber.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
A chief medical officer at health Track RX and a
plumbing expert to different people talk to us Southern Living
dot com about this pressing issue of course etiquette. You're
gonna go to Southern Living dot com. They say, keep
the lid down. It's to prevent the spread of bacteria, obviously,
and when you flush, especially, keeping the lid down reduces
(28:14):
between forty and sixty percent of particles.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
That became a big thing during COVID flee the room
instantly when you flush.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Yeah, but here's the thing. Public bathroom doesn't have a
lid most of the time, or prison. Also, there's not
even a seat in prison. I'll tell you some other
day why I know this. Okay, Now, on top of
the possibility of bacteria, you've also got the issue of
humidity because water is evaporating from the bowl and raising
humidity levels in the room.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Yuck.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
They say keeping the lid open is the same as
when you put bowls of water around the home to
increase humidity.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Do you do that?
Speaker 2 (28:53):
I've never done that, and now I never will. I
don't know if I will. It works as effectively only here.
This is the same effect, but with toilet water, and
the humidity is increasing in the bathroom, which is already
a place that's humid, So you're talking about a chance
of mold and mildew.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Yuck.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
You also got an issue when the water evaporates, if
you don't have a water softener system, that you're gonna
get lime scale build up inside the rim inside the
rim holes, not the rim holes.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
No, everything about it sounds horrific.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
I know this is a crazy story. I would say
this is a good information to know, right, like I
don't know if I don't know if Dean Sharp is
doing this kind of stuff. I was about to say,
this is house whisper. There you go stuff right here.
He's much better at it than I am. Salmonilla also
but known to survive in biofilms under the rim and
(29:47):
below the water line for fifty days after an episode
of illness. Yuck.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
So basically, if you ever use any bathroom, just if
you're smart, you want to go in with a full
hazmat suit right with like a union suit.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Flap in the bath just basically, yeah, you do what
the astronauts do. They say, use bleach and open the
window because that reduces airborne microbes by up to eighty percent.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
How about that? Do it from a moving car? There
you go.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
Hey, speaking of toilets, coming up, we're talking about Los
Angeles International AIRPORTY got him. That's all coming up. Don't
want to miss it. What's happening with Terminal four? They've
been doing so much construction. I first time I came
to Los Angeles was two thousand and five and the
airport was under construction. Here we are twenty years later,
(30:31):
and it's not done yet. We're just starting on a
new project. I am six forty. I'm Andy Reesmeyer. We're
live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app
Speaker 1 (30:40):
KFI AM six forty on demand,
You're listening to kfi AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
There was a desert wind blowing that night, one of
those hot, dry Santa Ana's that come down through the
mountain passes and curl your hair, make your nerves jump
and your skin itch. On nights like that, every booze
party ends in a fight. Meek little wives feel the
edge of the carving knife and study their husband's necks.
(00:30):
Anything could happen. You could even get a full glass
of beer at a cocktail lounge, and maybe on a
hot October night like tonight, the world series will be
tied two to two.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
Good evening.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
I'm Andy REESEMYER'SFI AM six forty. We're live everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app. Look at us. Another Santa Ana win
event here. But the good news is nothing like we
saw back in January. First of the season underway today
and Wednesday, warmer conditions than normal, warmer to the coast
(01:08):
and the valleys, gusty winds across the typical wind prone
corridor of La Inventora County. We're looking at local areas
of critical fire weather and red flag warnings, so it
is important to stay vigilant wind gusts generally between twenty
and forty miles an hour across higher terrain. Noticeably strong
(01:31):
wind this afternoon, a little offshore wind, and especially if
you're out there towards the towards the water, you feel it.
Heat advisory in effect here for Ohi Valley, Lake Casidas
all the way till seven pm Wednesday. We've got localized
red flag warnings in effect all the way until six
pm on Wednesday for the Santa Susanna Mountains, Southeastern Inventor
County Valleys, Western San Gabriel Mountains as well.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
So stay safe out there.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Los Angeles in studio here with AK Primavera.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Dodgers didn't do what we didn't.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
We didn't have a good night, but I will say this,
at least it's interesting.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
It's a good series. It's a good series. Last night
was enough action for a while.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Series is tied. And I think we said this before.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
You know, you do want some kind of drama, and
we're getting drama for Suah.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
You don't want to blow out either way, right, You
want it to be fun for your team, but you
also don't want your team to be blown out.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
This is what we want. We want to fight.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Yeah, I wish it wouldn't have been six to one.
That's kind of sad, Sam, What.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Is six to two? I think six to two was that?
How it was the final? Yeah, they got one more. Yeah,
they tried to scrap back into it.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
But usually after a game like you had last night,
wherever it was such a relief to win, you kind
of expect an emotional letdown a little bit going into
the next game. The problem is that this was game four.
Game four is usually the most pivotal game in a series.
It either makes it so one team has a dominant
three to one lead or we have.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
A legit series.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
Now for this World Series, it comes down to whoever
can win the two games. And you know, oh, the
Dodgers are real good, so they're a championship team, they're
the defending champions.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
But the Blue Jays can put up runs in a hurry.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
So yeah, I'm scared of the Blue Jays, but I
still have faith in my Dodger Blue very good, Sam,
Do you think they're gonna be I mean, I know,
obviously with another game tomorrow night, but then we're back
to Toronto on Friday. Yeah, And I guess my prediction
for the series was wrong. I had Dodgers in five,
so now I'm gonna amend it to Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
And six technically not Yeah, there you go. All right.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Well, we've been talking about music and AI music and
real music and not real music, and I think we
were gonna go here with a new song by Charlie Pooth,
which I think is kind of interesting because this is
somebody who I believe as a musician, you gotta love them,
because this is a guy who's doing a lot of
things that are referential to old school music, but he's
(03:48):
doing it all in the computer. Famously, he's a very
much like a pro tools wizard, and he's also somebody
who shares a lot of the magic. Was one of
those social media guys who figured out ahead of time,
I need to like break down my songs for people
to understand to learn about, and I think it actually
really helped him connect with a really, really solid, dedicated
audience of people.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Professor Pooth. That's a series right now, And have you
worked with him? He came on the Voice one time.
He was he's performed a few times, and then he
came on as an advisor and just the coolest, very
very talented, very very fun.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
He was a treat.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
So we'll listen to a song called changes here for
just a second, kind of get a vibe for like,
what's going on here in the world of music these days?
The Windows eight he call it.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
My god, that's been so.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Past one three point five? Is that what's happening over here?
I love this?
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Disagree.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
I am here for the sobra the late nineties or
late eighties early nineties sound as you know. Can can
we not ever leave this era just behind till AI
makes it a butt rocker?
Speaker 3 (05:10):
No, no, I can't wait.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Very cool, But this is what I wanted to show everybody,
is that I thought maybe he was inspired by another song.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Perhaps should we listen? I think we should.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
We'll see.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Take a listen.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
L Is it good?
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Is it too good?
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Is there inspiration there? Probably that is Andy in the Valley.
It's one of my one of my songs. It was
released way before this song came out back in twenty
twenty one. I think I think the inspiration is the
eighties for everyone.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Yeah, you're right, yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
But I'm ready for this. I'm ready for this to
have a have a moment again, you know.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
And Charlie back to him is like super cool. He
just recently on Fallon doing some stuff and like he
is that computer wizard. Yeah, like it references the old stuff,
but then is very modern with his production style.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
He's great.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
I'm a big fan and you know, I know that
the music industry is a tough place to be these days,
but I love it when people are really just doing
what they want to do, especially in a pop music capacity.
This is a guy who seems like he's really enjoying
what he is doing. So yeah, yeah, definitely. And what
was a there's a Taylor swift.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
When I first came on, we talked about Taylor line
where she's like we talked about how Charlie Poos should
be bigger than he is, Like she loves him, Like
the industry I feel like loves him. He's like a
very respected kind of like pop stuck me for a minute.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Though, he's huge. He's huge.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
What do you mean Charlie Poof should be bigger than
he is? I mean, like he's a pop star. What
are they talking about? He sells that arenas right?
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:57):
I mean he does. Yeah, we're gonna talk to Taylor
on this. This is a frame of reference thing because
Taylor Swift thinks she is. You know, she obviously is
as famous as she is, so anybody who's not as
famous as she is she thinks is.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
I think I think that was a That was a
Matti Healy song too, scrap in the bottom of look
at Swifty.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Well, Jack, it's always a pleasure to talk to you.
Thank you for having me on what what music should
we be listening to? And tell me more about Actually,
let's do this the voice. What's happening on the voice?
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Well, like I said, we're in the knockouts right now,
it's getting down. There's a couple more rounds left, but
the knockouts are you know. We we had the battles,
which is like essentially duets, so we're back to individual
performances and the big stick, if you will to it
all is like we have these mega mentors and that's
Joe Walsh and Zach Brown. So I like it as
a music nerd to watch at this round because you
(07:44):
get so much advice from these iconic musicians, you know,
Joe Walsh of of icon of all time and Zach
Brown a modern icon, and then you get to see
them give advice to these artists, and then you see
the artists take the advice hopefully and then form.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
It's a lot of fun. Jack bri Rivera check them
out on the voice. Thanks Andy making it possible. Thanks
for being here, mister music man. We've got lots coming
up later in the evening. We're checking out what's happening
at LAX. One of the terminals is being torn down.
How that might affect your travel plans. Plus Santa Monica.
Santa Monica is in a doom spiral, but they're trying
(08:19):
to pull out, pull up whatever that's all coming up.
It's KFI AM six forty. I'm Andy Reesmeyer. Thanks for
being with us this evening, licking our wounds. Moving into
a tide series here in the world series Dodgers Toronto
Dodgers in the Blue Jays rather La Toronto, tied two
(08:40):
to two as we eagerly anticipate tomorrow's game at Dodger
Stadium alongside the always enjoyable Sam and Mark Ronner.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Very kind of you.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Well, I'm trying to do my best here. Have you
heard about any of the other shut offs here?
Speaker 3 (09:01):
For so Cal Edison, No, I just had something I
think eight o'clock, but if you weren't listening, that's understandable.
Well I was listening.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
I just didn't know if we had any actual I
know there were there were things about warning that we
might have shut offs, so cal Edison customers warning that
they might lose power Tuesday through Wednesday afternoon. But it
is Tuesday, and it's Tuesday eight twenty and I haven't
seen any shut offs yet.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Right, Yeah, if you give me a minute, I can
track it down.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Oh yeah, no, no, you don't have to do that.
I just didn't know if you had heard, if you'd
heard it, if you'd heard it into the grapevine, if
anybody texted you said, hey, my power's out.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Yeah, the whisper stream hasn't reached me, hasn't reached it. No,
are you on the Wi Fi? I am. I'm a
member of the Wi Fi. No tattoo though, Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
I haven't in inked. No, that's well, you got to.
You got to share that password with somebody else before
they'll let you get let you in. I don't know
the rules yet. I don't know. I'm gonna have to
(09:58):
get jumped in.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Well until that occurs, Yes, we're just warning people that
there may be a chance that your power could be
shut off because of the Santa Anna win event public
public safety power shutoff a ps PS. Look how when
we give these little slick names stuff, Hey man, where
were you in the PSPs at twenty twenty five?
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Do you want me to replay the voicer story that
I had at eight o'clock with all the details. It's
thirty seconds. Yeah, I'll take a break. Okay, here we go.
Speaker 6 (10:31):
The utility is warning about fifty one thousand of its
customers to brace for potential public safety power shutoffs they
could start today. It comes with southern California facing critical
fire weather conditions. San Bernardino County is facing the greatest
risk of power shutoffs at more than thirty three thousand
customers In Los Angeles County, the warning applies to more
than seven thousand customers, with eighty five hundred customers in
(10:54):
Ventura County and fifteen hundred customers in Riverside County possibly impacted.
Daniel Martindale KFI new.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Now do you feel empowered having heard that? Yes?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Anytime Daniel Martindale does his sign off, let's gonna call
a sign off.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
What is it called a radio lockout? Yeah, it's emphatic,
isn't it.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
It's so good, Daniel Martindale, It's like he owns a
Chevy dealership.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Sometime before your time, we had a quite well known
reporter who sign off with something along the lines of
kf I News.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Oh, I know it. It's a legendary, I was. I
know it because I'm a listener. Yeah, okay, I listen
all day, every day, A p one, the dogs all listen.
Whenever I'm not at the house, KFI is on.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
I don't want to get off on too much of
a thing here, but I feel like when I listen
to those, my lockout is really inadequate. And I got
to think of something distinctive of my own.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Can you give us a run through of your of
your current lockout?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
And it's so mediocre that I'm embarrassed to do it now.
It's just KFI and my name. I don't I don't
have any kind of like John Tesh flourish for it. See,
and I think I have to develop it. I think so,
Mark Runner. It's something with a shriek. I don't know.
I mean, it's hey, bigfoot something. I'll get back to
(12:16):
you on it. I didn't mean to. No, No, what
are you talking about? You didn't mean to.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
I'm just gonna go on about Santa Monica. Have you
been lately. I went to school there. I spent a
lot of time there. I worked not far from there
for many years, and I guess I was in school
in twenty eleven is when I started going to school
there at Santa Monica College. Great school dropped out. Not
their fault, but it's really been struggling. And that's not
(12:44):
just because you go there and you look around and
you're like, oh, things are a little weird here. It's true.
They are in their worst fiscal crisis in years. There
was a two hundred and twenty nine million dollar settlement
related to a sex abuse by a former city Dispatch
one guy, two hundred and thirty million dollars in settlements.
(13:06):
They're also, of course, dealing with homelessness crime. City officials
are acknowledging that crime incidents have become more visible and volatile.
Businesses have abandoned the once thriving downtown. Not even Brandy
Melville wants to hang out there anymore. Retail office vacancy
rates among the highest in La County. Crowds previously packed.
(13:29):
The areas of the promenade and the city's famous pier
have dwindled. Is it any surprise to anybody who has
spent time there. It was ground zero for the crime
and homelessness that then expanded far out from the West side.
(13:53):
I think in the early twenty tens parts of Santa
Monica were as bad as downtown. I lived in both places.
I spent a lot of time in both places. But
now a new city council made up of many young
people who have been elected in the last two or
three years, have decided instead think about a comprehensive plan,
(14:13):
doubling police patrols, investing in crumbling infrastructure, and adding business
friendly permitting to get people to come back and do
business in Santa Monica. The Great Sam Rubin, whom I loved,
always used to say it's the only thing I ever
heard him say that was remote league. I don't even
(14:35):
think this is political. I think it's a wise statement.
It's that rich people will put up with a lot
of stuff, but what they won't put up with is crime.
And so when you see parts of Santa Monica where
a two bedroom house is six and a half million dollars,
not that bad, but it's expensive. Crime is something they
(14:56):
will not put up with. But, like I said, increasing
police patrols, enforcing misdemeanor ordinances, investing in infrastructure and new
community events, and taking a more business friendly brush, a
business friendly brush horsehair, perhaps to permits and fees. They're
(15:17):
looking for a rebirth, a renaissance of the city by
investing in ourselves. According to council member Dan Hall, he's
thirty eight years old good age. He is one of
five council members who, like I said, were joining the
council elected in either twenty twenty two or twenty four.
They are millennials, they are younger. There's also a new
city manager from Irvine named Oliver Che who used to
(15:41):
manage the city of Irvine, which we know is a
completely different experience than going to Anaheim. They have resources,
but the general fund is running a structural deficit of
nearly thirty million dollars a year, and most of that
is because of the funding drop from hotel taxes, sales tax, parking.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
It's not all.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
Good because they are going to be generating additional revenue
by raising parking rates. That'll help, right, That'll get you
to go to Santa Monica when the parking is more
expensive and they're cutting the current ninety minute free parking
in downtown structures to thirty minutes. Really doing the people's work, man,
(16:25):
That's how we'll fix it. We'll get money from people
who are coming here so that we can make more
people come here.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
What people love is to be squeezed from every angle.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Right for things that are not their fault, you know,
like I want to go to the Banana Republic on
the promenade. It's not my fault that there's petty theft,
that there's homelessness, there's crime everywhere. I have never seen
the amount of just rampant violent crime that I saw
when I lived, when I went to school down there.
It would be normal to be walking down the promenade
(16:55):
and just look over and there's like a trail of
blood because a guy just got stabbed in front of
the ARII is a true story. They also plan on
moving the city's homeless shelter out of downtown. They're going
to create a large scale Santa Monica music festival next
year and upgrade the restrooms near the pier and Muscle Beach.
And how are they paying for all of this, they're
(17:17):
going to end their contract with the private ambulance operator,
which is going to save them three million dollars a year. Okay,
well let's a start. Where's the other twenty seven gonna
come from? I guess taxes, But it does make sense,
you know, if they make it more business friendly, which
I don't know that they're I don't know that they
even know how to do that. Like I said, reported
on that place, did a lot of city council meetings,
(17:37):
did a lot with smur They pretty much run Santa Monica,
and it's just in there. It is not a business
friendly place. They are very very progressive, proudly, but being
being there is a tough thing for the people who
live there for sure. All Right, I'm way over time.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
I am six forty. I mean Andy Reesemeier.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
We got an update on a story that broke a
little bit earlier today out of Mississippi. Heidelbeg Mississippi. I
think that that's the correct pronunciation. Jasper County. The Jasper
County Sheriff's Department reporting that there was an accident involving
a semi truck carrying twenty one monkeys. It is not
(18:27):
clear how the truck crashed or where the monkeys were
being taken, but we do know that the truck was
carrying reesis monkeys no relation. They are among the most
medically studied animals on the planet. We do have some
sound from a local Jasper television station from earlier today.
(18:48):
Let's listen so.
Speaker 7 (18:49):
Four and we do begin with breaking news. Officials in
Jasper County say all but one of the reesis monkeys
that escape after a truck overturned on Inters fifty nine
near Heidelberg had been youthanie. That truck was carrying the
animals from Tulane University when it crashed. The monkeys are
aggressive toward humans and require personal protective equipment to handle.
(19:09):
A statement from Tulane University says the monkeys involved in
the Jasper County crash were non infectious and belonged to
another research organization.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
It's weird to hear like, hey, they're not infectious, don't
worry about it. And we thought, wait, why would you
think that they were infectious? And that is because there
was a whole series of infections or reports rather that
these monkeys. This comes from the Jasper County Sheriff's Department
Facebook that the twenty one monkeys on board this truck
(19:40):
were infected with herpes.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Hepatitis? Who gave it to them? And COVID?
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Who gave?
Speaker 3 (19:48):
What are the key's doing?
Speaker 2 (19:51):
But Tulane says, non human primates at the Tulane National
Biomedical Research Center are provided to other research organizations to
advance scientific discovery. The the primates in question belonged to
another entity. I don't know what the other entity it
was referred to. This is clarifying this missing information and
are not infectious. We are actively collaborating with local authorities
(20:12):
and will send a team of animal care experts to
assist as needed. What is wild is that some citizen
video from the incident was uploaded to their app, and
apparently it was of so much interest to the users
of Citizen that people who were many miles like hundreds,
(20:34):
maybe even thousands of miles outside of Jasper County got
notified that this happened, including me oz walking the dog earlier,
and I looked down, I said, what happened where? And truly,
like I said, monkeys reportedly exposed to COVID nineteen hepatitis
c and herpes, and now there's some debate on whether
(20:54):
or not that's true, and initial reports that one monkey
remained on the loose after the crash might have been
incorrect because authorities, according to Citizen, are now saying that
three monkeys are at large. It's the beginning of at
least a very interesting movie. Didn't we have that movie
with Dustin Hoffman Outbreak? Yeah, it's exactly how it started.
(21:18):
And it's odd because I googled the before this was
like had made it outside of the individual reports. I
googled truck crash caring monkeys. You would be surprised at
how often this happens. Just do yourself a favor and
google monkey truck crash and maybe if you have to
set the specifics outside of where you know today so
(21:39):
you don't see all the news articles from today. It
happens like every few months. It's crazy out there.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
I think they have to like make laws against doing this.
If it's this common of a problem, they have to
do something. You're right, otherwise I was going to have
crash like COVID and like herpies and gonery infect the right.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
The new strain of COVID also comes with the side
of hepatitis and herpi's courtesy of some truck monkeys.
Speaker 5 (22:09):
I think if as long as you don't make out
with a monkey, you're fine.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
This has been that's a big ass, right, This has
been the story of my life.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
You go to the zoo and you look at them
in there and you think, oh, those are those are cool?
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (22:24):
I don't I will. We're out of time here. I
don't want to talk about making out with monkeys. But
what an unbelievable world we live in. A lot of news,
a lot of things going on still here coming up.
It's the question everybody wants. It is a good segue.
Should the toilet lid be open or closed when it's
not in use?
Speaker 3 (22:44):
That's a question.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Oh yeah, there's a lot of debate about this. I'm
not just saying do you put the lid down? Do
you put the top lid all the way down? I'll
hurry with the news. We have to get to this
AMAS ex forty. We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Good Evening on this Tuesday night, six to two, Blue
Jays win even and out the World Series.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
I thought there's.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Gonna be maybe some excitement tonight, hoping coming out of
last night that we were going to be at least
ending the game early enough with the wind to go
out and celebrate last night.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Basically I heard this.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
I don't know if this is true, but it does
make sense that they cut off beer sales, you know, obviously,
this is how they do it most sporting events. They'll
cut it off, you know, a quarter of the way over,
so if you're in, if you're in the last quarter,
usually you can't buy booze, you know, at like a
basketball game or football game.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
So the people stuck there all that time last night
had to suffer without beer.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
They sold beer for less time than they didn't sell
beer last night at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
That is unamericane.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
They you could see it in the eyes of the fans.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
They were like, can we hurry up?
Speaker 5 (23:55):
We either want to drown the rest of our sorrows
in a loss or go and celebrate and have more
to drink. And by the time it was time to
get out and they got out of the parking lot,
all the bars were closed.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
That's right, that's exactly right. You got to go home
and have a brew, have a brew. The thing is
that sobering up. You know, maybe you took it over
or somebody else trovia, you had a life buzz going.
You think, okay, I'll be good to the end of
the game, and you sober up because you're there for
six and a half hours and you're sobering up. It's cold.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
Nobody wins. Listen, It's no secret I'm not a massive
sports fanatic, but some of the best times you'll ever
have is a Cubs game at Wrigley Field in Chicago,
and the drunks in Chicago are the best part of
the game. If you remove that from the equation, why
have anything?
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Wellhen you look at places like Chicago, Boston, New York,
it's like you got to drink a lot because it's
so dang cold all the time. It's like how the
the cook on the Titanic survived because he was a
drunk in the cold.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
It's the solution to every problem cause of then that
and then becomes the and now you're doing Homer Simpson. Yeah, okay. Uh.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
The thing is you saw in the middle of like
the sixteenth inning, they the players like on the bench
had a charcoterie board.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Oh my god, what a bunch of hungry.
Speaker 5 (25:15):
They had all dinner plans that they had to can't right,
so everybody was like, yeah, we got to get something
over here.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
They had like fruit plates and charcooterie around.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
I'm wondering if Dodger Stadium has ever run out of
Dodger ducks because people, I'm I'm serious, people were going hungry.
They had some money coming in concession stands.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
I was also thinking about you know they played two
baseball games.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Yeah it was two full there's two full games that night.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
And then you wonder when they go to commercial, like
how do they are they running those commercials for two
B and five? I mean they run the Fox promos
probably without much conversation, but when they put in other commercials,
who's are they having conversations with, Like the people at
Toyota or Ford to say like, Okay, I got another
commercial coming up, do you want it?
Speaker 5 (26:01):
It's bonus spots they for us. It's it's bonus spots.
So it's a it's a make good essentially where we
give them. Run the Charger games, so I know, like
if the game goes to overtime, they'll have a one
minute bonus spot for an overtime break.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
What if the game goes into double overtime and it's
six and a half, we have hours long.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
We have a lot of contingencies to make sure that
we cover those breaks. And at that at that point,
the broadcasters also know how many commercial breaks that they
have left for the game, so they're gonna try to
conserve it or won't make plans to add more just
in case it's crazy.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
I was thinking, like, man, they get the run out
of commercials. Here some free one. You're never going to
run out of commercials. Yeah, we're happy to play it well,
And I was wondering, you know, it's like that's probably
more people viewing also at a certain point, because you
know that it's getting down to the wire and you
get a lot of people coming in.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Yeah. I don't know. We'll talk about it at our
next meeting. I'm sure.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Now the question becomes we're talking about bathroom etiquette. There's
a big debate always whether the toilet paper should be
over or under over right, that's the patent. Everybody pretty
much agrees over Yeah, that there shouldn't be a debate,
but there is a debate because we live in the world. Uh,
But as far as the lid goes Now, I'm not
talking about the seat. The seat obviously, if you if
(27:19):
you live with women at all in your life or
as civilized human, the seat's got to go down. But
the lid does the lid go down? I grew up
in a household where the seat and lid always had
to be down. That was just the way it was,
That was the rule. But I know some people aren't
like that. And doctors and plumbing experts. How do you
(27:43):
become a plumbing expert?
Speaker 3 (27:45):
I'm not sure. I want to know. Eat a lot
of fiber.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
A chief medical officer at health Track RX and a
plumbing expert to different people talk to us Southern Living
dot com about this pressing issue of course etiquette. You're
gonna go to Southern Living dot com. They say, keep
the lid down. It's to prevent the spread of bacteria, obviously,
and when you flush, especially, keeping the lid down reduces
(28:14):
between forty and sixty percent of particles.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
That became a big thing during COVID flee the room
instantly when you flush.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Yeah, but here's the thing. Public bathroom doesn't have a
lid most of the time, or prison. Also, there's not
even a seat in prison. I'll tell you some other
day why I know this. Okay, Now, on top of
the possibility of bacteria, you've also got the issue of
humidity because water is evaporating from the bowl and raising
humidity levels in the room.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Yuck.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
They say keeping the lid open is the same as
when you put bowls of water around the home to
increase humidity.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Do you do that?
Speaker 2 (28:53):
I've never done that, and now I never will. I
don't know if I will. It works as effectively only here.
This is the same effect, but with toilet water, and
the humidity is increasing in the bathroom, which is already
a place that's humid, So you're talking about a chance
of mold and mildew.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Yuck.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
You also got an issue when the water evaporates, if
you don't have a water softener system, that you're gonna
get lime scale build up inside the rim inside the
rim holes, not the rim holes.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
No, everything about it sounds horrific.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
I know this is a crazy story. I would say
this is a good information to know, right, like I
don't know if I don't know if Dean Sharp is
doing this kind of stuff. I was about to say,
this is house whisper. There you go stuff right here.
He's much better at it than I am. Salmonilla also
but known to survive in biofilms under the rim and
(29:47):
below the water line for fifty days after an episode
of illness. Yuck.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
So basically, if you ever use any bathroom, just if
you're smart, you want to go in with a full
hazmat suit right with like a union suit.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Flap in the bath just basically, yeah, you do what
the astronauts do. They say, use bleach and open the
window because that reduces airborne microbes by up to eighty percent.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
How about that? Do it from a moving car? There
you go.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
Hey, speaking of toilets, coming up, we're talking about Los
Angeles International AIRPORTY got him. That's all coming up. Don't
want to miss it. What's happening with Terminal four? They've
been doing so much construction. I first time I came
to Los Angeles was two thousand and five and the
airport was under construction. Here we are twenty years later,
(30:31):
and it's not done yet. We're just starting on a
new project. I am six forty. I'm Andy Reesmeyer. We're
live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app
