Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Tiffany Hobbs here, and we are still tracking every bit
of this major storm. The downpour has been consistent all
day since yesterday, and it's getting harder.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
It seems.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
It seems like it's coming down with a bit more fervor.
But that has been said that intermittently it would be
stronger rain, lighter rain here and there, but consistently rainy.
And there are fears in the burned scar areas of
mudslides rockslides. There have been mudslides and rock slides, and
luckily at this point, there has been not much too

(00:45):
report on as Again, luckily, as far as injury or
major harm done to people or structures, that's a wonderful thing.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
Knock on wood.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
I hope you're knocking on wood out there, But there
are still those imminent risks and fears as this rain
continues to flow. Keep it right here on the station
on KFI, as we continue to track this storm and
this atmospheric river that's sitting over southern California. Now let's
get into our deeper dive segment this story. It's very interesting.

(01:21):
I happen to come across it. We can stop it here,
we can play it when we come back. Alli, it's fine.
We have a deeper dives drop and we'll do it
at the when we come back after the break.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
You gotta hear it.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
It's by Eric Lesardo, friend of the station, Amazing drop.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
We'll play it when we come back.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
But this story really interests me, and it's one of
those things where I was like, if it's interesting to me,
then I think it'll be interesting to you.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
And it's not a political story.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
It's not a story about the economy per se, and
I know there are fatigues with that where you know,
we can be fatigued by this inundation of the hard
and heavy hitting news. This one's a bit lighter and
kind of unusual.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (02:00):
You know what.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
Your feelings are about appearance, if you like your appearance,
if you've ever wanted to change your appearance, But there
are people who do want to alter how they look,
and cosmetic surgery is very available to do so. We
have the more common surgeries like the less invasive botox,

(02:24):
or you have more invasive surgeries like rhinoplasty or perhaps
pinning your ears if they protrude a bit too much,
or there are all sorts of things you can do
weight loss surgeries, obviously enhancing or decreasing different parts of
your body. But did you know that you can change

(02:44):
your eye color? Yes, you can change your eye color.
And while this surgery isn't brand new, it's gaining in
popularity as more and more people walk amongst us saying
that they have done that in fact, and that they're
doing okay. So, if you've ever had a dream of

(03:06):
altering or changing your eye color, then listening closely, there's
a company that's made that dream of reality, and it
does come with a few risks, of course. Of course
it's a surgery, major surgery, ocular surgery, and there are
significant risks to this. And in a new documentary called Caterpillar,

(03:28):
there's a man named David Taylor who gets an opportunity
to change his eye color from brown to green through
what many consider to be this controversial procedure. He embarks
on this journey, David Taylor, hoping it will transform his life.

(03:48):
He's able to reach out to a company, and in
this case, the company is called Bright Ocular. They specialize
in this eye color change surgery and David asks for
the artificial iris implant surgery because he has a desire
to have light eyes.

Speaker 3 (04:06):
He has brown eyes. He wants lighter eyes.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
He cites his father as being an influence because his
father has green eyes. Now he's unable to afford the
surgery initially, and of course bright Ocular says will give
you the surgery for free as long as you basically
become our test dummy and also promote the procedure and

(04:31):
experience on social media. Now David's story in the documentary
Caterpillar moves bright Ocular of course to also involve others
in getting this procedure done at hospitals. And this hospital
or these where this procedure is taking place for bright

(04:51):
Ocular actually is not in the States. It's in India,
which should give you a bit more insight as to
whether or an this is regulated. There are different rules
internationally for this sort of surgery. And again, other people
who are invited are doing so in exchange for promotional rates.

Speaker 3 (05:12):
You promote this. It might not work, it might work,
but either way.

Speaker 2 (05:17):
We'll do it for you as long as you are
our walking billboard. The company assures everyone that this surgery
is quote unquote life changing and that you will quote
unquote feel better and look better as a result. But
as the documentary goes on, the cosmetic procedure does in

(05:37):
fact reveal that it can take and does take a
heavy physical and emotional toll. Now what is this procedure?
According to bright Ocular's website, the product is a quote
unquote United States developed artificial iris implant that's made of

(05:58):
a thin, flexible, biocompatible colored medical grade silicone used for
permanent eye color change procedures.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
End quote.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
The implants, of course, and you can you know where
this is going have not been approved by the US
Food and Drug Administration, and the procedure is not even
available in the United States. And that's according to the
company bright Ocular. However, bright Ocular says it is legal

(06:31):
to have the procedure done in several clinics across the world,
including in India. Now, when bright Ocular was summoned to
comment for the documentary Caterpillar, they declined to do so.
In the documentary, another client goes on to ask the
doctor performing the surgery if the doctor would do the

(06:54):
procedure on himself, to which the doctor responds that he
would not. He goes on to say that he can
live without the procedure and that she the patient, should
avoid doing it because there are chances of side effects. However,
the woman goes along with the surgery, next to our

(07:16):
David Taylor and other people in the group. According to
Bright Ocular, the risks can include the following things infections,
high pressure in the eye, glaucoma, inflammation of the iris,
swelling in the cornea loss of cells around the cornea

(07:39):
deterioration of the iris, and more. Now, David Taylor got
the surgery, and he says that with his new eye color,
he's able to This is, according to the documentary, navigate
his life with new found confidence. He even defends criticism
from his family. He moves to New York City Arts

(08:00):
in New Life, but as time passes, he feels as
though something's not right with his implants. He says he
has throbbing headaches, sensitivity to light, and watery eyes. He
goes to a local doctor in New York who tells
him there's no collateral damage, but the implants should be removed.

(08:21):
The doctor says, the implants are just sitting on top
and they're not supposed to do that. David Taylor didn't
have money to have the implants removed, and so he
had to go about getting funding to do so, and
he did, in fact have the implants removed because it
caused decreased vision in both eyes. Now, Caterpillar is a documentary.

(08:48):
You can watch this. It's now playing in theaters. In fact,
it's interesting something I hadn't heard of, and I'm very
curious as to how many people, kind of what the
statistics are about peace people getting this surgery to change
their eye color. When we come back, eye color change
surgery isn't the strangest one on the list. In fact,

(09:10):
there are quite a few strange and crazy plastic surgery
trends you probably didn't know existed. You can get fat
removed from your cheeks, you can get fat put into
your cheeks. You can do things to your ear lobes,
you can do things to your eyelashes.

Speaker 3 (09:28):
I'll tell you about.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
These procedures and why they're different, why they're strange, and
why people are going for them in droves. On the
other side of the break Saturdays with Tiffany, we're in
our Deeper Dives segment.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
Tiffany ops here at Saturday's with Tiffany and we are
in our second part of the Deeper Dives segment. We're
talking about, well, the first segment was about a popular surgery.
It's becoming a trend and it's making its way stateside.
It's to change your eye color. And there's a new

(10:09):
documentary called Caterpillar which premiered earlier this month and it's.

Speaker 3 (10:14):
Out in theaters. You can actually see it.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
It chronicles a man, one man's journey to change his
eye color and what actually happens. Now we did spoil
it in the last segment. He takes them out, but
you want to find out about what happens along.

Speaker 3 (10:28):
The way in case that's something that interests you.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
And while talking about this particular surgery, I found other
surgeries that are strange, unique but popular and you may
not have known that they existed. Surgery, cosmetic surgery especially
has become a lot more normalized, especially with social media
and people showing you very vulnerable ways about their surgeries.

(10:55):
People aren't hiding them anymore. I remember the days where
people wouldn't tell you they had a surgery and they
wouldn't go out with bandages.

Speaker 3 (11:02):
But now.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
I was walking through the grove a couple of weeks ago,
and there were people more or less everywhere with bandages
on their faces and their noses and their chins and
other areas, and you can people don't seem to care
to hide it anymore. It's normalized. And on one hand,
of course, do what you want. It's your body. And
on the other hand, what is this doing for standards

(11:25):
of beauty? It's complicating things. And these new surgeries, these
popular surgeries, maybe not necessarily new, are indicative of that
thorough reflection. So here are some of the more interesting
surgeries or bodily modification trends that I found. One is
having your buckle fat removed. That's your cheeks, the cheeks

(11:49):
above your neck, not below. Most people want to put
fat into the other cheeks. In this case, they're taking
fat out of their cheeks to create kind of a
sunken in effect, like if you were eating something sour
and you kind of concaved your cheeks. People want that permanently,
and you can have the fat they're removed to give
you kind of the permanent sour kind of pucker face.

(12:13):
Bugle fat removal, you can get dimples. People love dimples,
and you can purchase them in what is called a
dimple plasty.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
Now there are complications bleeding, facial nerve damage, rednessonce swelling, infection, scarring,
but if it all goes well, recovery tends to be
pretty short, only a few days, and after that you'll
have dimples.

Speaker 3 (12:39):
There you go, a hole cut.

Speaker 2 (12:41):
In your face, umbilicoplasty, umbilical plasty that is changing the
appearance of your belly button. Now, generally this was done
on infants with umbilical hernias, and it was done to
help relieve pain and pressure. Now it's more of a
cosm metic procedure in which people can change their any

(13:02):
to and autie or they're out e two in any
or do anything they want with their belly button. It's
minimally invasive and takes about an hour. And if you
want to get that, I guess you can find a
place that does that. Let's say you have ear lobes
that hang pretty low. There's whole songs about this. Do
your ears hang low? Do they wobble to and fro?

(13:24):
If they hang low and you can tie them in
a knot or a bow, you can certainly get an
ear lobe lift. Often people who wear heavy earrings, their
ear lobes may sag. You can actually raise those up,
or if it's a genetic issue, you can raise those
up and lift your ear lobes back into an area
or of space that's more acceptable to you. You can

(13:45):
also lift your thighs. There's pretty much no part of
your body that surgeons can't lift, and with a thigh lift,
that's pretty self explanatory. You lift your thighs to decrease
sagging skin. You can also so you lift your lip.
You can lift your lip. You can upturn the corner

(14:05):
of your lip. You can give yourself kind of a
bow effect and lift the top part of your lip
up to roll up a bit to give your appearance
of a fuller lip. All of that's available to you.
You can get eyelash transplants. You want thicker, fuller lashes,
but don't want false eyelashes, You can get eyelash transplants.

Speaker 4 (14:25):
Now.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
Of course, for people who have hair loss alopecia, perhaps
effects of maybe chemotherapy or radiation, this is a wonderful,
wonderful answer. And then for those who are wanting to
do so for vanity, it is also available to you
as well.

Speaker 3 (14:42):
I'll take that one.

Speaker 4 (14:44):
The extensions, and it's such a pain, I probably spent
enough money to justify it at this point.

Speaker 3 (14:52):
Right Yeah, and there's no price here.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
But I imagine if you add all of the what
you've done, it could certainly translate to a permanent If
you want to get your eyebrows thicker, you can also
get an eyebrow transplant that will take follicles from your scalp,
usually near your ears, implant them near your brows to
fill them in.

Speaker 3 (15:13):
I'll do that one too.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
You can also fill in your feet. You can get
cheek and lip filler, eyebrow filler. You can also fill
in your feet. You can get injections in the top
of your feet to combat the loss of volume that
can happen with age or extreme weight loss. Can help
also relieve foot pain for people who have plantar fast

(15:35):
fast iis and calluses and cushion areas that have become hardened.
And lastly, you can fill in your hands. Perhaps you're
seeing that your hands are showing signs of aging. You
can get injectables in your hands to decrease fine lines
in your hands to give the appearance of more youthful skin.

(15:55):
These are just a few on the list of somewhat
unusual surgeries might not have heard of. The list is
much longer, and you can find out more about that
yourself if that's something you're interested in. Brigitta and Kayla
and me. To be honest, some of these are wild.
They're really interesting that that what is it? Dimple plasty?
I just ugh the bogle fat removal too much.

Speaker 4 (16:19):
Because as we get older, you just want to put
that back. I think there'll be a lot of regret. Yeah,
what if you can't pay for that anything fat transplant?

Speaker 3 (16:27):
In my face? That sounds great.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
You can't pay for the whole thing and they just
kind of stick part of it back in your face
because you haven't been able to pay for the Yeah,
there are all sorts of complications.

Speaker 3 (16:35):
Just hey, it's you.

Speaker 2 (16:37):
You can do what you want. It's your body. Nobody's
shaming here. Still tracking the storm.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
Tiffany Hobbs Here at six point fifty three or so,
we're going to talk to Michael Monks. He's going to
be here to tell us what's on tonight's show. Michael
monks reports, so keep it right here, and of course
we're continuing to follow all developments about the rain. I
think our collective knocking on wood has been helping because

(17:08):
happy to report that there's not much to report except for,
of course, ongoing fears and risks concerned in the burned
scar areas, and those are ever present and they will
be for a long time as those areas continue to
heal from the fires, and they have to worry about
mudslides and rock slides, and they are and there have

(17:29):
been some, but luckily nothing has seemed to produce much
that is news worthy in the sense of injury or
harm or major danger. So that's a lot of good
news on a day that could otherwise be quite scary
and is very i'd say anxiety ridden for a lot

(17:51):
of the population right now. But yeah, a lot of
flooding still, Freeways are a mess. Surface streets are a mess.
Be careful while you're driving. It's a mess. We're going
to tinue to watch that Ollie in the on the
board there has given us a gift and I want
to share that gift with you.

Speaker 3 (18:08):
It actually is a.

Speaker 2 (18:10):

you mind playing that for us?

Speaker 5 (18:17):
Scammer's gonna scam?

Speaker 2 (18:21):

Thank you. Oh you're very welcome. I'm just wonderful. I
just wanted to do something for you.

Speaker 6 (18:51):
You've been so welcoming on your show, so I wanted
to gift do something for scammers.

Speaker 3 (18:58):
Ollie.

Speaker 2 (18:58):
You are the gift that keeps on giving, like a
just a wonderful venereal disease. You're just beautiful. I don't
want you to go away. I just adore you so much.
And that was fun. That was a lot of fun.
Tell us a little bit about your musical background.

Speaker 6 (19:13):
I'm honestly it's more of a sound designing background, Okay.
I usually work in like like film, that's my main thing.

Speaker 3 (19:20):
Okay, and so humble. I just usually work in film,
like it's nothing.

Speaker 6 (19:24):
You know, and I just love with like music, just
like kind of throwing in sound effects and stuff as well,
like the phone calls and that. Yeah, yeah, I just
want to go with something techno and I don't know
something that you can kind of bop to whilst you're
driving down.

Speaker 2 (19:38):
I was bopping, Yeah, I was bopping in my chair.
I saw Brigita bopping. Kayla was on the floor, she
was worming and doing other things that were inappropriate to
share the family show. That was really good, Ali, I
appreciate it a lot. Thank you so much. And anytime
you want to break in with fun sounds and sound
effects and stuff to add a little umph.

Speaker 3 (19:57):
To the show, please do you were grud careful what
we asked for? Right?

Speaker 2 (20:03):
All right, Well, in this case, this person is regretting
a lot of what's happening to him.

Speaker 3 (20:09):
Unfortunately. This is our Scammer's Gonna scam segment.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
And it involves a person who is innocent and is
the victim of an ongoing scam that has now lasted
for fifteen years. Fifteen years. Most things don't last for
fifteen years, but this scam has endured, and what it
is is Scott Cole, sixty three year old tai chi

(20:35):
yoga and fitness trainer from Palm Springs, says that online
romance scammers have been using his picture to dupe potential
dates for fifteen years.

Speaker 6 (20:47):
This is so rampant, not just with my photos, but
with other people too.

Speaker 7 (20:51):
When California fitness trainer Scott Cole scrolls through social media,
this was me in France, the sixty three year old
says he often sees his her own profile photo being
used in bogus profiles Waterford, Ireland. Cole says this has
been happening for more than a decade on multiple sites.

Speaker 6 (21:11):
Here my likeness was being used to do something really awful.

Speaker 7 (21:14):
Cole's one of thousands of Americans affected by online romance scams.
The FBI reports fifty billion in losses from similar schemes
between twenty twenty and twenty twenty four.

Speaker 8 (21:24):
There are a number of people that I've talked to
directly whose images are being used to lure in unsuspecting people.

Speaker 7 (21:33):
One of those people fooled by a coal impersonator was
Jennifer Lisa.

Speaker 3 (21:37):
I was skeptical in the beginning, but his profile was very,
very large.

Speaker 7 (21:42):
Soon Lisa built an online relationship with the impostor using
Cole's photos, but when the man said he needed money
in connection with his job, she got suspicious. She did
a reverse image search online and realized someone was pretending
to be Coal.

Speaker 8 (21:57):
There really is no end in sight for someone like
him because the people who have the power to make
this stop are not going to make it stop.

Speaker 3 (22:05):
How awful do you hear what she said?

Speaker 2 (22:09):
That there's no end in sight for people like Scott
Cole because no one can really get ahead of this thing.
It's like a it's a runaway train at this point,
fifteen years in the making and it's just taken on
so many different legs that you can't stop it. That's

(22:29):
that's terrifying to not have any control over your likeness
in that way.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
And unfortunately Scott Cole. Well, here's an here's another idea.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
I have what a compliment to Scott Cole as well,
that people want to use his picture at sixty three
and younger at this point from sixty three minus fifteen,
what's that forty eight or so, starting at forty eight,
all the way up until now, that he's such a
looker that all these people are willing to use his

(23:00):
picture to try and get more dates.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
That's a pat on the back for Scott Cole.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
He must be doing something right and In fact, there
are three specific identities that were pulled for this story
by ABC. One of them is Kevin Ottomer, who portrays
himself as a project foreman from West Palm Beach, Florida.
There's a Caleb Wilson who's from North Carolina, and a
Wilson Davis who's a marine engineer in Ireland. The thing

(23:29):
about these three identities they don't exist, and they're all
using Scott Cole's picture. Now, of course, there's extortion here.
These identities are being used by people who are wanting
to gain access to the money of unsuspecting potential suitors

(23:52):
in the form of vulnerable women. One of those women
noted in the story Jennifer Lisa, who did in fact
get a requests to send thousands of dollars to a
bank account for Kevin Ottomer, who does not exist, who
was being portrayed as Scott Cole, and luckily she didn't

(24:12):
send the money, she says, luckily she didn't suffer any
financial losses.

Speaker 3 (24:16):
But there are.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
Other people who have who have and again, you can't
stop this, there's no end in sight. This is horrifying
and a marker of where we are today in society
and Scott Cole says that he even goes online to
just google himself or go on to social media to

(24:38):
see what potential fakes might pop up, and that they do.
They do, in fact pop up, and there's again nothing
he can do about. He tries to flag him, tries
to report him, but for every ten he reports, ten
more pop up or more horrifying. It's a horror story.
To save that for Halloween. When we come back, we're

(24:58):
going to talk about another kind of scary story. What
happens if you have a guest in your home and
you discover that they're secretly using your hygiene products.

Speaker 3 (25:09):
Yeah, secretly.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
You can do like Neil said and label them with
nefarious labels, or in this case, you can go viral
because you post about it. I'll tell you about the
story on the other side of the break, and we'll
talk to Michael Monks and see what's going on on
his big show. Still watching the rain, still raining outside,
Be careful. KFI AM six forty Live everywhere in the
iHeartRadio app Tiffy Hobbs here till seven.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
Tiffany Hobbs here and we have a we have a
car chase. We have a stolen vehicle pursuit of a
stolen vehicle in this rainy weather where we're tracking the rain,
and now we're tracking a car chase going through nor Walk,
the Downey nor Walk area. They have exited at Clark
Avenue and now they're on Flowers Street and Clark Avenue.

(26:01):
It hasn't been the highest of speeds, and I guess
car thieves are cautious of the rain as well. That's
a good tip to have, be careful even if you're
in a stolen vehicle. They have twenty four to twenty five.
I think we've seen them get up to about sixty
five maybe tops at this point. But the cruisers are

(26:21):
in pursuit, the helicopter is on it. Skycow is tracking
it right now, and again they're twenty fifteen ten eight.
They're speeding up. It's kind of a ratic as far
as the speed. It's going from really slow all the
way back up to twenties thirties and right now they're
on surface streets. Just blue through a stop sign, blew

(26:43):
through a stop sign at Virginia and Laurel Street in Downey.
The Downy Norwalk area. This is a pursuit of a
stolen vehicle. They're blowing through stop signs. The cruisers are
in pursuits. They're stopping traffic on certain parts of the
surface streets to make sure that this car has a

(27:03):
you know, a clear path. They just made a left
blue through another stop sign, heading down Oak Street and Virginia,
Oak and Virginia. It's a residential area. Probably knows where
they're at, Probably knows exactly what this neighborhood is in
the downy Norwalk area. At about fifteen, between fifteen and
twenty miles per hour, speeding up somewhat steadily. This is

(27:27):
kind of the most steady speeding up we've seen now
on these surface streets, exceeding thirty miles per hour. Still
heading down these surface streets in this residential area, blowing
through stop signs.

Speaker 3 (27:38):
Luckily not a lot of traffic out.

Speaker 2 (27:39):
They're coming to a big intersection, coming to a big
intersection at Oak and Lakewood. Can't see them, the birds
still on. Can't see them. Uh, can't see where they're at.
But oh turned right now they're heading back down Lakewood
or no, they're going left back.

Speaker 3 (27:55):
They'mit a U turn, hit a U turn.

Speaker 2 (27:57):
They're on Lakewood and Oak in downy pursuit of this
stolen vehicle, now exceeding fifty miles per hour back down,
So again the speed is fluctuating between higher speed and
lower speed. Now they're on these surface streets, blowing through
red lights, and it looks like the cruisers are pulling
back a little bit. We have Michael Monks here, Michael Monks,

(28:18):
what's going on?

Speaker 3 (28:18):
You're watching this? I mean, who do you think you are?
Tim Conway ding dong with you in this?

Speaker 2 (28:22):
A lot of commentary to me in this car chase.
I was going to say, I know exactly where this is.
I like that that gas station over there, that's my
Texico as Petros Papadekas.

Speaker 5 (28:33):
Could say, yeah, there's a lot of these going on,
and what a shot and so dangerous out there right
now with these wet roads and we've had a lot
of spinouts today across Greater Los Angeles.

Speaker 3 (28:45):
Are they headed back on the freeway back on the
ninety one way ninety one? Well, well crowded.

Speaker 5 (28:51):
You know this is something that I know people in
LA obviously we don't love that it happens because it's
extraordinarily dangerous, and there have been fatalities involved in these,
but it is something people enjoy watching and listening to
because it seems to happen an inordinate amount of times
in southern California.

Speaker 3 (29:10):
And the rain just adds another element of drama.

Speaker 5 (29:12):
It really does very dangerous. Well, I'll tell you this,
I'll continue to keep an eye on it. As you
hand me the baton. It's take over the top of
the hour and yeah, well, yeah, we'll keep an eye
on this chase. It's developing right now in this ninety
ways Saturday night and so cow.

Speaker 3 (29:26):
North Long Beach ninety one east.

Speaker 2 (29:28):
They're in the carpool lane and they're going in and
out of the carpool lane back to the regular lanes,
exceeding eighty miles per hours an hour, backup to dangerously
high speeds.

Speaker 5 (29:37):
It's crowded on this lot of tail lights here. This
is getting really hairy. There's a luss room to get around.
This car is blocked in right now because of the traffic.
But you have to imagine the other motorists who are
driving cautiously anyway because of the weather conditions, are now
seeing all these flashing lights behind them.

Speaker 3 (29:59):
Is that a way, mo? No, it's not a way
MO thought it was.

Speaker 5 (30:01):
Can't be on the freeway the way moos.

Speaker 3 (30:03):
Can't be on the FAA say it's seven o'clock, they
can is it today? Is this a wayword? Weay, Mo?

Speaker 5 (30:07):
I would not be getting in one today. I just
don't have the patience.

Speaker 2 (30:12):
As Tim would say, if you're in that vehicle right now,
give us off for plasher, flash your headlights, hit the
talk back feature on the iHeart app, tell us you're listening,
Honk your horn, whatever you need to do. This is yeah,
they're they're in some moderate traffic as they head west
on the ninety one near the Carpool Lane in North
Long Beach, exceeding sixty miles per hour, kind of going

(30:33):
between higher speeds mid range speeds forties fifties. As they
get stuck in traffic, they're swerving dangerously in between lanes,
splitting lanes, trying to get around what seems to be
heavier than unusual traffic on this ninety one west Really quick, Michael,
what's on your show?

Speaker 5 (30:48):
Well, we'll monitor this situation and bringing the latest as
as we get into the show. But you were mentioning
the rent control situation earlier in your program, and I'm
going to touch on that again, but in the context
of what it means for la as folks here are
daydreaming about having their.

Speaker 1 (31:02):
Own Zoran Mom.

Speaker 5 (31:04):
Donnie the newly elected mayor of New York City who
is an avowed socialist, and it seems that there are
already some here in Los Angeles. Our rain control ordinance
is a good example of that. And one citywide elected
official has officially left the Democratic Party and has name
checked these Democratic socialists calling for more.

Speaker 2 (31:24):
Oh, you have the drama On a rainy Saturday night.
I'll be listening to you while I'm driving home, and
you continue to track the pursuit of this stolen vehicle
on the ninety one East. They are in North Long Beach,
the Riverside exit. It looks like they may be Nope,
they're still on the freeway, still heading east again.

Speaker 3 (31:44):
They're swerving in and out of lanes quickly.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
If you discover that someone has been using your perfume,
they're a house guest, they're using it without asking, post
about it, and you'll go viral. That's the story. It's
people use your things when you're not around. That's the story.
That's more or less it. So if they use your things,
perhaps don't put the good stuff out, and like Neil said,
perhaps label things with labels that might.

Speaker 3 (32:08):
Just a quick question, how do you find out somebody's
using your perfume?

Speaker 2 (32:12):
Spray this case, it looks like the friend smelled exactly
like the person's. Yeah, the person's perfume as they were
hugging goodbye, and then said, hey, it's one of yours.
And she been sampling the perfumes every day. Oh yeah,
this friend was really nice. She wasn't she didn't, you know,
knock her into another home.

Speaker 3 (32:33):
Yeah, okay, all right, So they.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
