Speaker 1 (00:23):
It's Friday.

Thank goodness, it's Friday, and it's later with bo Kelly
k If. I am six forty. We're live on YouTube
and the Iheartradiot. Oh what what's that like? An earthquake?
The camera in here just fell over.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
And we're off. We're gonna have a good time tonight.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
Of course we're go'll be playing name that movie called Classic,
but we're playing for Alamo Draft House Cinema Passes, so
there's something in it for everyone. There's no theme tonight.
And let me just ask Mark. You'll be the one
to decide. Are we letting in regular callers or is

(01:02):
it just gonna be first time callers for the game tonight?

Speaker 3 (01:06):
Sorry, it helps when I press the button, Free for
all mo, Free for all all comers.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Come on, all right, Stephan, what do you think I
second it? Okay, free for all? Yeah, Now, Twalla's not
gonna like that. Okay, No he's not. Oh no, he's
very strict gatekeepers.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
Yeah, we're only letting people who have been abusive tonight.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
No, no, we don't like that, no, because that means they're
abusive to me, not to you.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
Well, you've got thick skin, you can handle it.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Well, I do have thick skin, but it kind of
brings down the game, though, I see.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
Okay, all right, a bad idea. Oh hiccoms twallow, he
has something to say, you the gatekeeper?

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Say what for? Name that movie called Classic tonight? Look, oh, I.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
Don't know where this free for all, come one, come on,
nonsense is coming from. But these are Alamo draft house
passes celebrating mom early early Mother's Day gifts. Okay, you
think they should just come to any Johnny come lately?

Speaker 1 (02:08):
No, aren't. Then who's going to be allowed to play
the game tonight? First timers?

Speaker 2 (02:14):
First timers, first timers only. You're not going to open
up the to the regular callers. Maybe next week, man, okay.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
But this week it's just gonna be first time.

Speaker 3 (02:24):
First time callers. I'm sorry, all right, I'm sorry. If
I know your name, if I know your email address,
if I know your address, if I recognize anything, if.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
Click, oh wow, hey this is Bill voice. Oh yeah,
no food, she hears me over there. Okay, yeah, he's
quick on it. Okay, all right, Well how about this.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
That's let's only have first time callers and mothers.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
Oh do you mean literal mothers? Fathers just half a word?
Is it just a word? Thank you very much?

Speaker 2 (02:59):
Okay, those who have given birth have children, yes, they
can be grown.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
But who are mothers? Yes?

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Could be use stepmothers even all right, okay, first time
caller and a mother. You get to play the game
tonight for the Alamo Draft House Cinema passes.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
I love it. Touch and agree, Touch and agree, okay,
touching agree.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
Tonight we're gonna be also talking about how California health
officials have issued an urgent warning do not eat the
selfish in our oceans along the California coast.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
I wonder why, I wonder why.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
Who has been talking about the danger of this water
due to the toxic algae, avoid the poop oysters, oysters?
Who are the ones who said? Who are the ones?
I guess I'll give you guys some credit. Who the
ones who's been talking about how the ocean is. If
it's dangerous to dolphins and sea lions, well, logical conclusion

(03:55):
is dangerous to us as well. Now they're saying it's
it's contaminated the food chain, of course it.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Yes, I love it because there are people who are
questioning your theories on this, like well, that's the food
chain for those mammals living in the ocean out for us.
But it's like, we're going to go get sushi, you know,
saying tomorrow or Sunday. So yeah, Like, isn't that part
of that same food chain. We could possibly get some

(04:20):
toxic algae sushi Sunday.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Don't don't put that on my mind.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
The whole gang is going out to the movies and
we're gonna get sushi on Sunday prior to so we
actually like each other for the most part, So we
hang out every now and then we're gonna go to
a sushi place in the Culver City area. Then we're
gonna go see Thunderbolts. You're breaking the fourth wall, man,
I know what. Well, I'm giving them a little bit
of the inside what goes on. And I don't hate

(04:47):
you as much as it may seem when we talk
to each other on the show.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
That is absolutely heartwarming. Well I can make it. No, no, no, no no,
she said, plenty, don't change it. Okay.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
Also, California, U, we're not losing people anymore. For the
second year in a row. People keep saying everyone's leaving California.
That is not true. California population has been steadily increasing
for the past two years. So you can stop telling
the lie that just because California is so horrible, everyone's leaving,

(05:18):
and believe it or not, they are coming to California
and living in the big cities.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
In addition to that, it's.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Not just people who live in Bakersfield or I don't know, Lodi,
in the more rural areas leaving California back then.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
No, they're coming to the big cities.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
And speaking of big cities and also Big County first
day of La County Fair and that means we have
to talk about the fair food which is being offered. Yes,
we have a huge list. We're going to go down
the list and see would you try it or not?
Almost like would you rather? Did you ever play that game?
Who would you rather?

Speaker 1 (05:56):
Yeah? Oh okay, yeah, Mark, you never play that game? Well,
when you say who would you rather? Instead of would
you rather? That changes a lot. Would you rather?

Speaker 2 (06:06):
I'm like, did you ever play any of those games
like Wisconsin Sleeper or never have I ever? Probably Wisconsin
Sleeper I can't tell you about unless you've played the game.
Wisconsin Sleeper. Sleeper sounds like something dirty you'd have to
look up on Urban Dictionary.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
What is a Wisconsin It's an East Coast game.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
I think kind of kind of you know, it involves
alcohol and and people that you might want to get with.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
Okayyous.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
That sounds like people ended up missing out and people
ask you, have you ever been slept before?

Speaker 1 (06:45):
But you'd never.

Speaker 3 (06:47):
Okay, I keep forgetting you were a frat boy. We're
talking to a frat boy. Never have okay, but everyone
knows what never have I ever?

Speaker 1 (06:53):
Is right? Yes, yes, okay, we're good there.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
I just want to make sure because I just maybe
from a different decade that one in the Wood you rather,
but the Wisconsin one was new to me.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
Was this part of or hazing? Did you get hazed? Slept?
Hazing is illegal? Yes, so I hear the law too.

Speaker 3 (07:14):
I can either deny or hazing is illegal. Further, opponents say,
if not Six.

Speaker 2 (07:20):
Flags, it's beginning to sell off its amusement parks and
already they're starting to sell tickets for Coachella next year.
Oh and twala, how did your daughter enjoy Beyonce loved it?

Speaker 3 (07:33):
Loved love love love love, loved it, Like she said,
this is one of the best shows. Ever, because it
wasn't just the cowboy Carter experience, which was stellar. She
also took fans on a journey through the highs and
lows of her career with music and video. Was just NonStop.
Every set change was a different emotion, express, and just

(07:55):
it was a whole story. And then she also did
like her hits, she wasn't going to just have you
come in there and hear just nothing but the country.
She still hit them over the head with the Bay Classics.
She said, it was just it was out of control,
it was packed, it was on fire.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
Yeah, I just don't know if I want to see
an artist in that type of venue twice in a year, you.

Speaker 3 (08:16):
Know, it's interesting. And I asked her about that. I
said to myself, so was it basically the same set,
same dancers?

Speaker 1 (08:21):
She said, No.

Speaker 3 (08:22):
What she did do is when she did some of
her classic Beyonce material, that's when she brought out different
dances that people fell in love with for the Beyond,
for the first one was at the Renaissance, brought out
some of those dancers that people are like, oh my god,
that's it.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
So yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:38):
So like she brought out like Less Twins, who everyone
just loves. They're less twins. They're very dope. They're like
two of the most famous name. I don't old daughter,
so I wouldn't know anything, but but they're dope. They're
just dope dancers. And they brought them back out. So
she said it was crazy. She got in the car
and flew over the crowd and like a Cadillac. It

(08:59):
was crazy. A flying car, Yes, flying car. I don't
think it was real, Mo, the car or the flying
And you want to talk about me and Wisconsin sleeper? Goodness, gracious,
is a Wisconsin Sleeper anything like a Cleveland Steamer.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
I am six forty. We're live everywhere in the iHeartRadio
app and YouTube.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
Oh now, you need to really watch the YouTube show
so you can see my disdain and disgust and Mark Ronner.

Speaker 4 (09:32):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
CAFI.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
Mister mo Kelly, We're live everywhere the iHeartRadio app, including YouTube.
Join the show and watch all the fun as it happens.
Let's talk about what's happening with our beaches. The California
Department of Public Health has issued a quarantine for all
recreationally harvid harvested shellfish for the entire coastline from May first,

(10:09):
as of yesterday through October thirty first.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
I don't think you understood the magnitude of that.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
The California Department of Public Health has issued a quarantine
for all recreationally ship harvested shellfish for the entire coastline
from yesterday extending through October thirty first, and a separate
advisory includes clams, scallops, and oysters in Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, Orange,

(10:42):
and San Diego counties. Here we go, we were talking
about when we go get soussi on Sunday. The warnings
do not affect commercially sold shellfish from certified sources, which
health officials said are safe. So if you're out there
fishing on the pier, you might want to be careful. Now,

(11:02):
this is going back to our conversation talking about the
toxic algae, and I was making the argument and some
people were laughing at me. Twaller Sharp was telling you
about that. I was making the argument, Well, if this
toxic algae is killing dolphins, which it was, and the
toxic algae was also making sea lions aggressive, then it

(11:23):
would stand to reason that our own food supply, that
the supply line of fish would also be contaminated that
we're consuming. Now they're telling us commercially we're not in
any danger. But if you're recreationally fishing, and I used
to go fishing my father in a recreational sense many

(11:45):
many years ago, I know what that's like, then we
might be putting ourselves in danger.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
Now.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
I haven't had any recreational fish in maybe thirty five
forty years.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
I can't speak for anyone else, but I haven't. Don't
think I would.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
Knowing what I know, just in general, that was before
the toxic algae.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
That was before that.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
You couldn't pay me now to have any fish out
of any of our oceans in in close proximity to
the coastline. There's just no way in the world now, Carnesia,
you're from New Orleans, and I mentioned that because you
go down south, that's Commons, that's everywhere you.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
Know, people will go out and get dinner.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
Consistently, consistently if you go down south, or maybe even
on the East coast, down in the Gulf of Mexico,
not to be confused with the Gulf of America, it
is very common for people to fish recreationally and use
that as part of their diet. Now I don't know
if people do it as much here in California, but

(12:50):
I would highly advise against that going forward. And sometimes
we try to have fun with this and we say,
you know, stay of the water. But I'm being absolutely
serious right now, absolutely serious. If the toxic algae was
not enough to get you to think twice what it
just had to do with the dolphins, when it just
had to do with the sea lions. When the California

(13:13):
Department of Public Health puts out an advisory like this,
hopefully people will start taking it a little bit more seriously,
just a little bit more seriously, because eventually someone's going
to have to suffer the consequences of it.

Speaker 1 (13:27):
And yeah, we like to have fun with it.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
We say that our beaches are poop beaches and the
water is full of feces, which it is, But this
is something which is actually worth paying attention to. Eric,
lets start brought up the fact that if Joe Kwan
is still surfing out there, which she probably is Joe
Kuwan for those who don't know, she's a reporter for

(13:49):
Spectrum News and sometimes She works as an anchor and
on air personality here. She surfs every single day, and
the question I would ask not only of Joe Kwan,
but Matt money Smith, who's the voice of the Chargers
and also part of Petrolsen Money. He serves if I'm
not mistaken every single day, and I would you know?

(14:10):
I think I'll just reach out to Joe Kwan right
now and ask her what she'd have to say, see
if we can get her on the show and find
out exactly what she would think about going in the
water now now, whether she would be have any type
of trepidation, Would she'd even be concerned. I would be
concerned because of just the sharks and stuff out there.
It's not uncommon for Joe Kwan. She's told me about

(14:32):
jelly fish stings. I wouldn't go out in the water
for anything and risk that. There's no way could get
me out there. But that's another example. If you tune
into the YouTube live stream, we will be answering your
questions if you would want to ask us a question
about a subject matter, or maybe we may take some
of your comments and put them on the air. This

(14:53):
is an interactive show, so most definitely tune in to
the YouTube show.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
What else is going on in the chat? Real quick, Carnel,
What are they talking about?

Speaker 2 (15:02):
Someone said she's probably surfing right now talking about Jokwan.
I think she was more an early morning surfer. I
think she does that much earlier in the morning. I
could be wrong, but I'll try to reach out to
her during the break because the shift is in the morning, right.
Does she do the early morning or that's Kelvin Kelvin

(15:23):
He hosts Kelvin Washington. He hosts the nine am show.
If I'm not mistaken, I'm sorry six six or seven am,
because I usually go in early with him. But Joe
Kwan's schedule I think is not as persistent as consistent hones.
I don't know, I don't know, but no, you couldn't
pay me to get in that ocean now. I mean,

(15:44):
just the whole thought of a jellyfish sting or a
stingray sting, or a sand shark, all that kind of
stuff just completely freaks me out. And my Carneie's just
laughing at me. It's just something I don't like doing.
I don't want to even hazard the possibility of brushing

(16:06):
up against anything that which might move and in the
ocean and there's a lot of stuff moving.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
But as a kid, yeah, I would boogie board.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
And maybe because I was ignorant to the realities of
the ocean, maybe I just didn't know any better. But now, no, no, sir,
and Mark Robert, he was the lifeguard.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (16:23):
I don't know how you did that either. Well, I
didn't like it. I mean I liked sitting around and
getting a tan. I only had to go in and
save one person who was a little girl, and he did.
I was kind of irritated because I had to get
my hair wet. If that gives you any idea, how.

Speaker 2 (16:38):
Did you train for being a lifeguard if you didn't
like getting your hair wet?

Speaker 3 (16:42):
Well, it was just the one time, because you know,
the pool water makes it dry up all kinky, and
it's just unacceptable. No, you train, and you get your
training in college. I took the training at Washington State
University and then I started the following summer. But that
was a pool where you know, it wasn't like swimming
in assess pool like the ocean is right now.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (17:04):
From what I've heard, the pools can get really, really
bad with people leaving deposits in the pool.

Speaker 3 (17:11):
I'm not saying that the kids either in the good
part or the bad parts of towns where I worked
in both areas, they didn't have a lot of inhibitions
on that front. But still, I would rather go swimming
in one of those heavily chlorinated pools than in the
ocean right now, wouldn't you? No, I would go in
neither a public pool or the ocean. No, So, whulch,
you're rather you got to pick one.

Speaker 2 (17:32):
I guess it would be the public pool, if only
because there's some chlorine in there, and there's probably a
time where they actually clean the pool, as opposed to
the ocean, where it's just they're not.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
Cleaning, they're just dumping more stuff in it constantly.

Speaker 2 (17:46):
Oh how often did they clean the pool, if at all,
continuously beyond just the chlorine, they actually clean the pool? Yeah, Okay,
maybe it was just where you were, because my side
of town they didn't.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
Really it was notorious.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
Yeah, And you know what, depending on where you live,
the public pools are usually a reflection of the neighborhoods
that they're in.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
Let me put it that way. No, I don't disagree
with that.

Speaker 3 (18:11):
Like I mentioned sometime back, we I worked at a
pool in the good yuppie irritating Karen part of town
and in the worst part of town. And in the
bad pool, I was constantly taking knives away from kids.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
Knives knives, no guns at the pool.

Speaker 3 (18:30):
Yeah, you never know when you're gonna have to shank
someone at the pool if you're twelve years old.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
Well, this is the state of Washington.

Speaker 3 (18:40):
Where is that. They didn't have lightsabers? Why would you
need there was a strict no lightsaber policy at the pool.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
Where in the state of Washington did you have to
worry about getting shanked at a public pool?

Speaker 1 (18:54):
Spokane?

Speaker 3 (18:56):
Spokane gets down like that. Oh yeah, spoke rough. It's
right on the border with Idaho. You got to remember that.
It's an angry, nasty part of the state. That's where
Mark Furman had his radio show. Okay, okay, learn something
new every day. I just know that those Spokane was
like that. No tough kids in Spokane. All right, Well,
listen later with Mo Kelly. Check us out on YouTube.

(19:16):
We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app as well. And
when we come back, we've got to tell you about
how California is growing again. For all the rumors about
people leaving California not true.

Speaker 4 (19:28):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
KIM sixty Yes Later with Mo Kelly, We're live on
YouTube and also the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
Come join the party.

Speaker 2 (19:41):
I can tell you Friday nights, especially with name that
movie called Classic, it's gonna be off the chain, as
the young folks say. Well, actually the young folks don't
say that anymore. That's what I used to say. But
we're gonna have a good time tonight. We often talk
about California. Last segment, I was talking about the California
coastline and how toxic algae has now impacted the food

(20:03):
supply in the sense of recreational fishing. And then we
had a question from the chat asking whether Joe Kwan
and I also offered the name Matt money Smith, if
they've changed their surfing patterns. Joe Quan has not hit
me back, but Matt money Smith did. He hit me
back immediately, and I asked him whether he serfs less

(20:25):
or has changed his routine because of the toxic algae phenomenon.
He said no, you know, he serves as much as
he did before. He does not give it a second thought.
So that's one person. I don't know if I would
agree with that, but you know that's what Matt money
Smith is choosing to do. He's going to surf just
as much as he did before. Another big story about

(20:46):
California statewide is its population. You've probably heard the ongoing
thought or belief that people were leaving California, and for
a time it was true, if only because coming out
of the pandemic, there were people who were leaving California.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
Now that's not the case.

Speaker 2 (21:05):
California is almost back to where it was in terms
of population, where it was in twenty twenty.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
Here's some specifics for you.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
Seven of California's ten largest cities recorded population growth in
the past two years. By the end of twenty twenty four,
the state's population nearly eclipsed.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
Its pre pandemic peak.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
So we can stop with all the stories about California
is so horrible everyone's just leaving the state. No, they're
actually coming to the state and they're actually living in
the big cities. California added one hundred and eight thousand
people in twenty twenty four, and it added two hundred
thousand in twenty twenty three. And I've always been of

(21:49):
the same opinion. I would rather people leave because that
means especially from the big cities, because that means traffic
would be better for me.

Speaker 1 (21:58):
It's always about me.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
I never got caught up in trying to prove to
people whether people were leaving California or coming to California.
I just wanted better traffic. But we kept hearing this
in a political sense. People there was this big, grand
exodus from California because California is so horrible. Oh, we
can argue about what is or is not horrible, but

(22:20):
we cannot argue about the state's population is growing.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
Not only can we not argue about the state's population,
many of the places that individuals were leaving and going to,
i e. Florida and Texas and Las Vegas, those were
the three spots that we kept hearing about people moving
to for this better life or whatever. I think that
many people realize that, oh, like, if you moved to Texas,

(22:46):
you have to live in Texas, you have to work
in Texas. And what we are seeing now is a
humongous return of people from Texas back out here.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
The biggest population growth cities where Bakersfield, which grew by
one point two percent last year, San Diego, which grew
by one percent, and Los Angeles, which grew by point
four percent. In the Bay area of San Jose and
San Francisco, their populations decreased slightly, each by less than

(23:19):
half a percentage point. Anaheim was among the state's three
major cities to lose people in twenty twenty three.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
Anaheim.

Speaker 2 (23:27):
So it's not even La County versus Orange County. It's
not even California versus Texas versus Florida. I just call
it people move. People move.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
How about that? How about that?

Speaker 2 (23:40):
It's not necessarily all for a specific reason.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
It's not that people are leaving.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
California because they hate the homeless or they hate the
cost of living.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
It's probably a combination of things. Why people move.

Speaker 2 (23:52):
Maybe you lost your job, maybe you got a different job,
maybe got a better job. Maybe you work in Hollywood
and there's a movie production which is going to be
in Georgia, for example, or North Carolina. I mean, people
come and go from the state for any number of reasons,
depending on your chosen field.

Speaker 3 (24:12):
I have a friend who moved to Phoenix, thank you
on man. There's Phoenix, there's growth, there's a job out there.
Moved out there and said the homeless crisis in Phoenix,
while not often talked about, is horrific because you see
people passed out literally laying half on the curb, half
in the street, oding on meth. It's just not a

(24:37):
living dead zombie like out there. Worse then worse than
downtown LA.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
Here's the thing about La slash California that I don't
think people remember when they have these conversations. There are
things that you can get in California slash LA that
you just can't get anywhere else. You're not going to
get a place where you can go to the mountain
and ski and snow ski and then also water ski

(25:04):
in La in the same day. You know you're not
going to get the consistency of weather in other places,
not in Texas, not Florida. If you've ever had any
humidity in your life, you know that a carnation from
New Orleans. She knows the difference in the lack of
humidity out here and the humidity in New Orleans. It's
just there is a quality of living which is bigger

(25:27):
than just our complaints. Let me put it that way.
It's not just the things we don't like. There are
a lot of things that I do like. I've may
complained about the rain that we get infrequently, And yes,
the rain is kind of an inverse measurement to the fires.
You know, less rain we get, the bigger or more frequently,
we will probably have brush fires and wildfires. But at
the same time, I do like the weather, and I

(25:49):
can't duplicate this weather anywhere else, not in Arizona. Have
you ever been in Arizona during the summer, You stay indoors.
Have you ever been in Texas during the summer? You
stay in and twila. I know you lived in Erie, Pennsylvania.
That was humid as all get out summer.

Speaker 3 (26:06):
You stay indoors, muggy, thick bugs off.

Speaker 1 (26:11):
No, not as cool as you think. Seeing snow is good.

Speaker 3 (26:15):
It's cool for wow for a day when you got
to go and shovel your car out of it and
you find yourself sliding on the road and you're not
even doing black guys sitting and your car just slides
into the side of the road.

Speaker 1 (26:27):
Nope, you get back to California when we come back.

Speaker 2 (26:30):
We'll be talking about how it's the first day of
the La County Fair.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
Think about this.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
You could have gone to the Beyonce concert last night
and then today you can go to the La County Fair.
You can go to the Clippers basketball game. At the
end to it dumb. There are so many things to
do in La slash Southern California. And that's not even
talking about if you've ever been to San Francisco.

Speaker 1 (26:52):
Or the Bay Area.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
It has its problems, do not get me wrong, but
it's still picturesque in most portions of northern californi in
the Bay Area. So yes, people will leave, but more
people are coming back to California. And that's not necessarily
an endorsement of everything in the state. It's just a
factual method of I will say, measuring the appeal of California.

(27:18):
If they're coming to the state, they're coming for a reason,
be it job, be it lifestyle, or combination of both.
People are coming to California because they want to be here,
not because they have to be here. It's later with

Speaker 3 (29:25):
Spicy. No, I can't. I can't do the spicy. It
looks good on paper, it sounds good. But yeah, I'm like, wow,
this this I think this is probably gonna taste good.
But I'd be dying the rest of my nice checked
up jerk lobster mac and cheese.

Speaker 2 (29:40):
Yes, yes, yes, heartbeat absolutely mac and cheese. I've had
jerk chicken. I can only imagine how wonderful it would
taste put together. That sounds expensive, though I would try it. Okay,
nothing at the fair is that expensive. That's the beautiful
thing about dish. There nothing is that jerk lobster matt,

(30:02):
Yes and cheese?

Oh my god, yes, I think not what? What? What's
wrong with you? Mark? Why do you hate America? It's
it's Korean?

deep fried. Well, almost anything's good deep fried. Come on,
condensed milk, don't they still do? Like deep fried?

Speaker 1 (30:54):
Butter?

Speaker 2 (30:55):
They That's just just some of the samples of what
they're offering this particular year. Look, for the most part,
I'm not real. I'm not like a thrill secret when
it comes to food or even actual activities.

Speaker 1 (31:10):
That's not my thing.

Speaker 2 (31:11):
But there there are some things on this list I
would actually love to eat. I'm still thinking that if
if anybody's going to the fair and you can pick
me up some jerk lobster mac and cheese, I highly
appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
Times four. Yeah. Now, would you try a stuff twinkie?
What is it?

Speaker 3 (31:27):
Stuff with It's twinkie, the twinkie shell, stuff with different
meats and cheeses.

Speaker 1 (31:33):
Good, God is the feeling? I don't know.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
It just says it's a Twinkie hollowed out and they
fill it with meats and cheese.

Speaker 2 (31:41):
That sounds like pretty much a corn dog kind Yeah,
maybe sweet because maybe.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
I guess the shell is still super super sweet. Yeah,
I'm yeah, I'll try it.

Speaker 2 (31:53):
I'm not so big on meats and sweets sweet and savory,
but I would try it.

Speaker 3 (31:58):
They've got Texas Tweakies, which are Twinkies wrapped with bacon,
no deep fried, no wrap it.

Speaker 2 (32:06):
With the bacon and yeah right off, yes wild no.

Speaker 3 (32:12):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm trying everything. I wanted to try everything.

Speaker 1 (32:17):
I want.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
If you got cricket cookies, if you've got you know, uh,
chocolate cover, grasshoppers or ants, I want it all. I
want to look I want to eat it all. I
want to try it as long as it's not they
won't have chocolate color covered ants and stuff out there.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
They will, Yeah, yeah, yeah they will. Uh.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
Mondo who used to work here. He tried to sneak
in some cricket cookies for me to eat without telling you,
without telling Yes, yeah, I didn't like those. Look, I
didn't try. He came in when I had an office.
He came into the office and he said, hey, Mo,
we want you to try these cookies.

Speaker 1 (32:53):
And right there, I was like, Okay, something must be
up because.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
You don't need to ask me to get my permission
to try some cookies unless there's something wrong with the cookies.

Speaker 1 (33:02):
And he said, no, there's nothing wrong with the cookies.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
I said, Mondo, what's up with the cookies, because you
don't need to ask me to come into the fork
report to try some cookies unless there's some angle. They're
not like chocolate chip cookies, so there's something going on.
He said, well, okay, Well then he finally broke down
and said yes, they're actually crickets ground up in the cookies.
And I suit right there and I said, no, no,

(33:27):
I didn't.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
Didn't you try them. I did, Yeah, I absolutely, they
were absolutely. I don't give a damn.

Speaker 2 (33:33):
I'm not consciously putting insects in my mouth consciously.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
Now they are good. You cannot tell.

Speaker 3 (33:41):
It's not like, uh, it tastes like grass or anything,
tastes like cookies.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
It doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
It's the fact that I would know that it's ground
up crickets. And if someone put ground up cockroaches in
your food, would you be okay with that as long
as it didn't taste like cockroach?

Speaker 1 (33:58):
You know what?

Speaker 3 (33:59):
The cockroroat cockroroach meat is supposed to be very tasty
if you take the belly and and suck it down
the thorax. Yes, the belly tasty they have they have
this year. They have MIC's Hot Honey Turkey leg a
brand new bacon wrapped pork belly.

Speaker 1 (34:19):
We talked about that before.

Speaker 3 (34:21):
And and I love the this strawberry chocolate dip strawberry concoction.
This thing looks like it's like a bucket of strawberries
and all types of different chocolates, drizzle with more chocolate
and confections.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
Song as there's no meat in that, I would try it.

Speaker 3 (34:36):
I don't think there's meat in it. Back up to
the bacon thing. It's bacon wrapped pork belly. Yes, that's
just like yeah, yes, yes, but no, it's the pork belly.
And then to keep all the stuff inside of it
that's all good and cooked and slathering with juices and gravy.

Speaker 2 (34:52):
They cook it up in pork. They do that in Korea.
They do a version of that in Crea. Because you
get pork belly everywhere. You're not going to find a
lot of chicken in Korea South Korea.

Speaker 1 (35:02):
Well, we're gonna need four of those. Two don't sound good.

Speaker 2 (35:07):
If we send out Stephan right now, he might be
back by the end of the show. If you leave

studio with some food. I know the La County all right,
I'm gonna reach out to these fair people, all right.

Speaker 2 (36:17):
Later with Kelly, we have a six flags update when
we come back, and confection. As long as there's no
meat in that, I would try it. I don't think
there's meat in it.

Speaker 3 (36:24):
Back up to the bacon thing, it's bacon wrapped pork.

Speaker 1 (36:27):
Kelly.

Speaker 3 (36:28):
Yes, that's just like bacon. Yeah, but no, it's the
pork belly. And then to keep all the stuff inside
of it that's all good and cooked and slathering with
juices and gravy.

Speaker 1 (36:39):
They cook it up in pork.

Speaker 2 (36:41):
They do that in Korea. They do a version of
that in Korea because you get pork belly everywhere. You're
not gonna find a lot of chicken in Korea South Korea.

Speaker 1 (36:49):
Well, we're gonna need four of those. Two sound good.

No, that would be weird.

Speaker 3 (37:35):
All of a sudden, it's like, oh, now, we can't
show him the cats out of the bag now.

Speaker 2 (37:39):
If he were to like not say anything for the
next two hours, people would kind of know. We already said, Hey, Stephan,
