Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
And it was a pretty darn good weekend for the
box office, not just domestically but internationally as well. We're
gonna have a Wicked review in just a moment, But
Wicked came in at number one. Here's this thing about
Wicked versus Gladiator two. Wicked had one hundred and twelve
(00:29):
million domestically fifty million internationally, for a total of one
hundred and sixty two million dollars worldwide, so it did
two to one domestic to international. Gladiator two had fifty
five million domestically and one hundred and sixty five million internationally,
(00:50):
so it was three to one international to domestic for
a total worldwide of two hundred and twenty million. Gladiator
two did not do real well here in the United States,
but it did gamebusters internationally, and seemingly that's where it's
going to have to make all of its money, because
fifty five million is not all that impressive here, but
(01:12):
it is doing very well overseas. Number three was Red
One that's still hanging around with thirteen million. I don't
know if it's going to be able to make its
money back. That's one with Dwayne Rock Johnson and Chris Evans.
Number four, I'm not familiar with uh Mark. Have you
heard of bon Heifer? Pastor spy aside Bonhoffer?
Speaker 3 (01:34):
Yeah, it's a World War two thing. Okay, all right,
not for me. I believe, I believe, Okay. Number five
still hanging in there.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Venom, the last dance pulled in another three point eight million.
Look as garbage, but it's still made more than four
hundred and fifty six million worldwide. It's turning a profit,
which means there's going to be another dance. It's doing
what it's supposed to do. And this is it's fifth
week in studios. That's a long run for most movies
(02:04):
these days. It's still in the top five after five weeks.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
Yeah, as I said, it's going to stay in the
top five. There's nothing coming out next weekend or the
weekend after that will kick it out of the top five.
The films that are coming out over the next few weeks,
they are distinctively different as far as audience appeal to
(02:29):
Venom and if Venom's appeal is working with the audience
that wants to go see if there's no need for
a theater to not only not keep it in wherever
it's running, but keep the marquees up, keep the posters up,
because people are there for it.
Speaker 5 (02:43):
Man, this Bonhuffer thing looks terrific. It's a World War
two Hitler assassination movie.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Okay, all right, I might check that out.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Yeah, going back to Venom, it's still in twenty five
hundred theaters. And to your point to all, nothing's going
to move it out of the theaters at this point,
and the movie theaters want to stick with something that
people still want to see. And if it brought in
almost four million this week, let's say it'll bring in
another two million next week, and it'll probably divide by half.
(03:11):
It's remaining weekends in theaters. It's making money. I don't
know why. And I love quote unquote superhero movies. You
know how they try to paint the genre. And I
have no desire to see this movie, none at all.
But it's making money, which means that there is an
audience for that whatever. That is, all right, before I
go any further. Who saw Wicked the movie? I saw
(03:34):
Wicked at the stage show. I saw the movie. Oh
you saw the movie too. I saw the movie okay,
and we know that Mark saw Gladiators, so we compare
your review with his review.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
I can say, without ever having watched the play, which
I desperately wanted to see when we had the opportunity
to see it last time it came around, wasn't able
to go.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Why because I think we're working somebody crazy.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
I couldn't make it.
Speaker 4 (04:01):
You're working, Yes, very very upset. I could not see
Wicked on stage. My daughter, she's seen it three times already,
three times.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Manette.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Your daughter's seen Wicked three times, She's seen Hamilton eight
five times. She's been to Taylor Swift, Beyonce. Is there
anything that she does miss?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
No, not nothing, nothing that she wants to see. She's
into the theater and you know, but I went with
my daughter and her mother, who both, of course I've
seen Wicked, and I wanted their perspective as diehard Wicked fans,
me and myself watching it As a fan of musicals films,
(04:37):
I've never been to a musical live on stage outside
like Peter and the Wolf and things like that as
a kid. But I love musical I love everything about them,
and this one was no different. The performances, in particular
Ariana Grande, who I did not know had acting chops
like this. She absolutely ate this film a lot. Ariana
(05:01):
Grande is an absolute star on that screen. Her portrayal
as Glinda was phenomenal. Her comedic timing spot on. She
is amazing on on screen and she can sing Cynthia
or Rero. Every scene that she was in you could
fill the emotion oozing out of her. Then when you
(05:24):
hear her sing, it's next level because your skin tingles.
She is angelic in her portrayal of Alphaba and together
the two of them, there were two distinct moments in
this film that I absolutely let the tears roll down
that I was like, oh my god, these are incredible.
This is a film that I will see in theaters
(05:46):
again and again because I love seeing the music and
the set pieces, the costuming, everything about this film work.
It's not a musical where they're beating you over the
head with the music, but all of them musical choices
they worked. They pushed the story along and from talking
to my daughter, it plays very close to the play,
(06:07):
which I know a lot of times when you do
an adaptation they have to change things add a lot
of stuff this one. They did truncate it in order
to make this Act one, because this is Act one,
in Act two is the sequel, which comes out the
exact same time next year.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Question, from what you see, because I'm trying to think
where Act one ended, did it change or influence what
you thought or felt about the characters.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
And the Wizard of Oz.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Absolutely absolutely seeing this story and seeing how it really
went down. Man, it all depends on who tells the story.
It all depends on who tells it. Very much like
Cobra Kai, very much like Cobra Kai. With we always
thought that Daniel was this innocent kid who was being
picked up. When you watch Cobra Kai, you're like, hey,
(06:56):
seeing this from another angle, maybe he wasn't so In said,
maybe he was the jerk.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Well in the title is a little bit of the
giveaway as far as what it means to be wicked
or not.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Absolutely, And I love how they told that story. I
love how they told the story of how the Wicked
Witch became. I loved the political intrigue behind it. There
were so many different movie pieces.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
That I was like, oh man, she was set up
from the beginning.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
Oh yeah, it crushed me. And I can absolutely see
why she would ride on Oz because wow, wow, yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah. From my understanding it the way this film ended.
It ends at the exact point where intermission happens in
(07:50):
the play. Okay, at that performance, that performance is the
one that goes to intermission. This film ends on that
exact same performance.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
When I say it was only, I'm saying that I
expected it to be in more theaters. It was only
in thirty eight hundred and eighty eight theaters. A super
wide Marvel release or something like that might be in
as many as forty five hundred theaters. This as a
holiday offering and also being number one, I expected to
(08:19):
pick up theaters in the next few weeks, especially after
you get past Thanksgiving and into Christmas, and also as
people start seeing The Wizard of Oz as we always
do during the holiday season. Yes, then there'll be even
more inclined to go see Wicked, and.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
As brilliantly as possibly could be done. They have signs
in the AMC theater saying please do not sing along,
Please do not shout out as hard on stuff, and
they've said they've announced there will be a sing a
long version of Wicked released in the coming week, So
(08:55):
even after this one may die down, they're going to
release the sing along version in theaters. That's brilliant.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Oh it is. It's going to be a moneymaker. And
from what I understand, I haven't seen it yet. Ifrore
understanding what you're reiterating, there's gonna be some Oscar nominations
coming out of there.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Absolutely, absolutely.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
The two leads, Cynthia Rivo and Ariana Grande, absolutely need
to be recognized for their performance. Is the acting that
they delivered on top of the singing. I thought it
was stellar.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
I think the Golden Globes are foregone conclusion because they
have comedy or musical category, which lends itself to this.
So yeah, I think that's a foregone conclusion. When we
come back, we have to talk about We talked about
superhero movies and how it's not that people are tired
of the genre, they're tired of the bad ones. And
(09:47):
we listed the bad ones usually being connected to the
Sony Marvel universe. That's the people who made Venom, that's
the people who made Morbius, that's the people who made
Madam Webb. Those are the bad ones with the getting
ready to offer you one more called Craven the Hunter,
and we're going to talk about that and what people
(10:07):
are feeling about its Get.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
When is it supposed to be released to we like,
is it early next year? No? No, no, no, that's
coming out in a couple of weeks.
Speaker 6 (10:14):
That's all.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
That's why, perfect example, I don't know when this movie's
even coming out. You have to care out like the sixteenth.
Oh gosh, this is a holiday movie. Do they not
know who Craven is?
Speaker 3 (10:24):
He's a hunter?
Speaker 4 (10:25):
And and and I believe that I think if I'm
not mistaken this one, I think is it might even
have a rated R.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
That's what I'm saying, Yeah, because who releases a rated
R movie for the holidays? Looks festive?
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Come on, KFI ams is forty live to everyone in
the I Heart Radio app.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Kelly Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Okay, let me
reset very quickly. There are Marvel movies, and there is
the MCU. The MCU is Marvel Productions. That's when you
hear names like Kevin Faigy. That's Iron Man and Captain
(11:12):
America and those guys.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
That's MCU.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
When you talk about the Marvel Cinematic Universe, you talk
about those movies. Sony has the rights to Spider Man.
They allow Marvel, the Marvel Productions, to produce the Spider
Man movies, and Sony distributes them. Sony has their own
(11:38):
Marvel branded movies which are not in the MCU, that
they produce themselves and they distribute themselves. They have a
full on Spider Man universe which does not have any
Spider Man in it.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
You heard that right.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
It is a Spider Man universe in which there is
no Spider Man.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
It's a rogues gallery. These are low level villains.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
They are low level, not even the best ones, low
level villains that they've turned into anti heroes and made
movies around. Venom was one of my favorite villains. They
have bastardized him. Venom on the movie screen is nothing
like Venom in the comics. Venom is a symbiote and
(12:27):
he is drawn to Peter Parker Spider Man. The stuff
with Tom Hardy is not that. Nonetheless, because they had
success with Venom, they've tried to pull out these other
Spider Man villains and make movies around them, while never
ever referencing Spider Man or including Spider Man. You may
(12:52):
have heard of movies like Morbius or Madam Webb. There
is another installment in Sony Spider Man universe which is
getting ready to come out on Toilette tells me December thirteenth, yep,
And it's Craven the Hunter, and it's going to star
Aaron Taylor Johnson, who I like as an actor. Craven
(13:16):
I like as a character. I do not believe that
I will like this movie, even though I like the
idea of Craven and also Aaron Taylor Johnson. From what
I'm hearing, this may be a decent movie, and at
the minimum, better than Morbius and better than Madam Webb,
(13:38):
and probably better than any of the Venom movies. The
problem is it's going to be a rated R movie
and it's going to be released within the two weeks
before Christmas. That is where you send movies to die.
You don't have our movies released right before Christmas. That's
not a movie that people are going to flock to see,
(14:00):
especially the first week, which is thirteen twelve days before Christmas.
Speaker 4 (14:07):
Now, if it was a horror film, a Christmas themed
horror film. Yes, you could win because there's a whole
silent violent Knight, Violent Knight stuff like that, and those
films won. But those films cost like twenty dollars to make, okay,
and they made forty five yay. So I mean, so
those films are great multipliers. This is a film that
(14:27):
had a big budget, that has all of the superhero
fanfare that goes into making a film like this, and
it is a character of that. Unless you are super
familiar with the comic books, you don't know who Craven
the Hunter is. Craven the Hunter is still one of
the greatest Spider Man villains. Granted he's not a known
(14:49):
name to just the average Joe. I'm sorry, they know
Aaron Taylor Johnson. And if you're a huge fan of his,
sure you may be in this. But how many films
films as he led that were successful. He has not
had a film where it was just him Godzilla and
Saw just him.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Yeah, you know, he was in.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
A Bullet Trains, Bullet Train, a whole bunch of stars.
Brad Pitt was in Bullet Train, all right, So I'm
saying this is This is one of those ones where I'm.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Like, budget is listed about one hundred and fifty million.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Oh, it is unlikely that this movie is gonna make
its money back.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
Now, this is still something that I will see, if
only because it's rated R. It looks very violent and
I like this character, so this is something I will
go see. Venom last Nance, No, because they got me
the first one, you know, and that that's shame on me.
You know, second one, that's shame on them. I'm not
going for a third by the Venom. I will never
(15:49):
see anything having to do with Morbius ever again. And
Madam Webb can be burned in effigy. But this one,
this one, yeah, I may go say this.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Yeah, Madam Webb, I saw against a better judgment and
it was worse than I thought.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
It could possibly be one of the all time worst
comic book movies. But this is a craven movie. It
looks weirdly violent, like not even comic book violent, weirdly
stabby violent. I'm not even sure who this movie's for, but.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Howd Yeah, but it's like the payoff can only be
is if Spider Man is in it and they're doing battle.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
No, it has the Rhino in it, and that's in
the trailers. That's not the spoiler.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
And they've had the Rhino in in a small version
of the Sony Spider Verse.
Speaker 5 (16:36):
Yeah, Rhino doesn't look bad. That's somebody that we've kind
of hoped to see come to life for a while,
but not sure if it could be done without it
being just laugh out loud silly. This looks a little
laughout loud silly.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Well, maybe a little.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
I'll see it, but not until maybe the New year.
I'm not going to be in the rush to see it.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
You know.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
I'll probably catch it on screaming because I know this
is a movie which is going to hit stream by
January first, twenty twenty five. Yeah, yeah, I can't argue it.
I mean, do you see a four week run of
this movie in theaters? I don't think so. I don't
think so.
Speaker 4 (17:12):
Well, when the director's coming out and pleading with fans
of the superheroes genre films to go and see it
there to give it a chance, that's rough, man. You
don't really hear directors coming out begging fans to go
see a film and telling fans, hey don't judge my
film against all the other Sony you listen to them
by name. He's not even shy. He's like, this is
(17:34):
no Venom, Morbius, Madda Webb. My film is none of those.
This is a good movie. That's that's wow.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
A little desperate sounding, but not as desperate as the
state of Alaska. When we come back, we're going to
tell you how Alaska's STD rate is gone through the roof,
specifically gonorrhea and chlamydia. Put your hands together for Alaska.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
I've never been to Alaska.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
I had the opportunity to go for a fraternity meeting
many years ago. Didn't go because I had a scheduling conflict.
But I hear it's gorgeous. It's a wonderful place to visit,
depending on time of year. So this is nothing again
against Alaska. I just have to report the news as
it is presented in front of me. Did you know,
(18:30):
number one, that Alaska only has a population of seven
hundred and thirty three thousand people, And if you want
to compare, Denver, Colorado has seven hundred and thirteen thousand,
Seattle has seven hundred and forty nine thousand in San Francisco.
Here in California has eight hundred and eight thousand. Use
that as a reference point. Alaska had the nation's highest
(18:56):
rate of gonorrhea last year year and the third highest
rate of chlamydia across those seven hundred thousand people. This
is according to the US CDC. The rankings are from
the CDC's newest annual report on STDs, which was released
(19:16):
last week. Nationally, as a point of comparison, gonorrhea rates
dropped from seven percent in twenty twenty two to twenty
twenty three. Nationally, fewer people were coming down with gonorrhea.
Alaska's twenty twenty three rate was also lower than the
(19:37):
state's twenty twenty two rate, but the decline.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Was not as.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Precipitous. It was less than seven percent. If you didn't know,
Gonorrhea can cause infertility in women and men, and infections
that it spread to various parts of the body, and
complications can be a problem for babies, including blindness. Alaska's
going to reorrate to drop from three hundred and fourteen
people per one hundred thousand in twenty twenty two to
(20:08):
three hundred and ten people per one hundred thousand. Last year,
that decline was only was less than one percent. Again,
the national average was down seven percent. I understand that
there's not a lot to do in Alaska, and I
don't begrudge people for getting their freak on because it's
(20:32):
cold outside and there's not a lot to do, But
damn man, use some protection or something. Everyone go to
the doctor at the beginning, find out what you're dealing with.
Have an open conversation. Had that conversation. Have you been
tested recently? Do you clap when you walk? Do you
(20:55):
have a problem with STDs? Do you have more than
fourteen partners who all live in the city, because you know,
they're not that many places where people live in Alaska
for seven hundred and seventeenth to seven hundred and eighteen
thousand people, not a lot.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
And this is true to form.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
STD rates are typically higher in Alaska than in other states.
In twenty ten, Alaska had the nation's highest colamittye rate
and the second highest Gunnerhia rate. So this is something
that Alaska has been excelling at for decades. It has
always been near the top. No pun intended of all STDs.
(21:37):
How can you be burning in Alaska, you can. In
twenty twenty three, Alaska also had syphilis rates higher than
the national average. The state was the eleventh highest for
primary and secondary syphilis. So in other words, not only
do they have syphilis, they've had it for a while
and it's progressing.
Speaker 4 (21:59):
Isn't it like only like two or three clubs, and
like the bar scene isn't that deep in Alaska. There's
not a lot of night clubs. The friend who went
out there to DJ an event, he was like, it
was like the only thing popping. So if you're going
somewhere to pick up on someone, you're picking up on
the same people.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
All I know is if I were still single and
I did visit Alaska, I would not be having sex
with anyone.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
You can't, you can't. They're probably walking around shaking like.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Something, no, no, no, you can you can. There's nothing stopping
you other than bad judgment.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
At this point, with this rate of chlamydia and syphilis
and everything else. I promise you can look and see
the danger signs.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
You can just look and say, like, hey.
Speaker 6 (22:49):
So you're saying, I'm people walking around with open source
on your face, on their faces, on their nether regions,
and I promise you you get down to doing the
new and you're gonna say, oh.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
God, no, Look, far be it from me to chastise
someone for their bad decisions while in the heat of
the moment. Okay, I think we're all adults. I've been there.
I don't know about Stephan. I assume Tuwala has. He's
told me some stories.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
We've all been there, and we probably made.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Some bad decisions, maybe under the influence of alcohol whatever. Yes, okay,
but after a certain point, you need to stop doing
the same thing over and over again. And Alaska is
doing the same thing over and over again. They are
single handedly raising the national average for STDs. Spot the
(23:40):
cruise spot, yes it is, Yes it is. But I
haven't gone on any cruises to Alaska yet, and I
have not disembarked. And I'm not having sex with anybody
who lives in Alaska, not even my wife, thank god.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
If we stop in Alaska.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
I'm not letting her get off the ship because she
might catch something by osmosis or the wind blow or something.
You just don't know, Yeah, you just don't know. Filth
pot Alaska is well. Think I mean, look, I talk
about American exceptionalism. It's like, come on, look, I understand
how Mississippi needs to be last in education, lasted economics,
but you know you're in Alaska.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
You got to do better than that, isn't you that?
Sarah Palin stopping grounds, Yes it is, Yes, it is.
That makes more sense now I would make.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
A connection between Sarah Palin and STDs also stumping.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
Is that the right verb? Yes, it is. It is
the exact verb I was looking for.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
I don't know some of those stories that I read
about the Palins and I just go, oh, yeah, Alaska,
Oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
Is it like a small dating pool? Is that it?
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Are there just fewer people to get get your groove
on with and so you're all just sharing the same stuff?
Or is it there's just more unprotected sex in Alaska.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
It is a combination of both. That's probably a handful
of attractive people. Everyone else is bundled up. Everyone else
is all wrapped up, and then you know it's time
to go to break. Nothing else to say.
Speaker 1 (25:16):

dialogue with me regarding the world or whatever the subject
may be. On air, you can do that as well,
whatever it is to your heart's content, but it's going
(27:51):
to be our auction item courtesy of Later with Mo Kelly.
You get to co hosts with me for the entirety
of a Friday show all three hours. It's one thing
to come visit the studios. A lot of people have
done that. It's one thing to sit in the chair
of the host. A lot of people have done that,
(28:13):
or even come in and sit down and be interviewed
for a segment. A lot of people have done that,
but not many can say that they've hosted or co
hosted a show on KFI three hours long. It's not
for the week at Heart. Let me tell you, it's
not for everyone, but it could be a great opportunity
for someone who maybe loves KFI or would want the
(28:34):
opportunity to sit in on the number one news talk
station in America and the number one streamed station on
iHeartRadio app and it could be yours. If the price
is right, I It's bitter, it's going to be our
auction item. It should be up very soon at KFIAM
six forty dot com, forward slash Pastathon or at the
(28:55):
Anaheim white House dot com wherever they have the auction items.
We just sent over the information to producer Michelle today,
but we wanted to let you know tonight and announce
that tonight you can even take shots and Mark Ronner
you can ask him about the weather and why he
was wrong about the weather.
Speaker 5 (29:16):
Here you'll find out there's nothing to it. It's just
as easy as it sounds. Anybody could do it. And
you know what, that's the thing.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
When I talked to would be future radio professionals, maybe
they're coming out of school, they're still in college, maybe
they're in the broadcast journalism, and they say they want
to get into radio, all three of them. The surprise
if they should start out as an intern here when
(29:44):
they're on the microphone for the first time by themselves
and they hear themselves and they realize that it's not
quite the same as let's say, college radio. It's not
quite the same as a music show. It's not quite
the same. When you realize that more than one hundred
(30:05):
thousand people are listening in some fourteen different states terrestrially.
I'm not even talking about on iHeartRadio, where you can
listen around the world. You know, during the Friday night
game name that movie called Class, we have people call
in from Japan and all around the country and Australia
one night the crab Nebula right somewhere outside of approximate Centaurus.
(30:30):
Then they realize, oh, it's a little bigger than I imagine,
but you have some pros here with you to guide
you along. But it's also a fantastic experience where you
get to feel the power of this station and how
many people it can reach. It's a look. When I
say it's the best job in the world, I mean
(30:50):
that in all sincerity. It's the best job in the world,
and it's a great experience that I would want for
anyone who has any desire to be a part of
the history of KFI. And we're offering it to you
later with mo Kelly as a part of Postathon auction.
You can co host this show for three whole hours.
(31:12):
And when I say three whole hours, each segment is
about maybe eight minutes long, So that's twelve segments eight minutes,
about ninety six minutes all together, and it can seem
like an eternity if you're out there by yourself with
no net.
Speaker 5 (31:26):
That is the length of a feature film that you
got to be running your mouth.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
And I know that everyone has one show in them
and this is just one show, so you should be
able to make it through that. But it gets more
and more difficult when you have to deal with whatever
it's in front of you, whatever is happening in the
news that you don't get to decide, you don't get
to determine, or something is breaking news and you just
have to switch gears and deal with it right as
(31:51):
it's happening. And then you realize, oh, it's not as
easy as I thought. It's not quite as easy. But
here's your chance. And I get a lot of messages
from people say, oh, I can do that, here's your chance.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
I can do it better than you, Moe. Here's your chance.
Speaker 7 (32:09):
Literally put your money where you're about this and it's
for a great cause. It's for Katerina's Club, and this
idel will be available to you as the highest bidder.
You can co host later with Mokelly on Friday, name
that movie called Classic The Whole Shebang, three hours. Stephan
will be here, Mark will be here, Twala will be here.
(32:30):
I'll even be here, and you will be here too
if you're the person who wants to be part of this,
so be on the lookout for that. We'll see you tomorrow.

You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
And it was a pretty darn good weekend for the
box office, not just domestically but internationally as well. We're
gonna have a Wicked review in just a moment, But
Wicked came in at number one. Here's this thing about
Wicked versus Gladiator two. Wicked had one hundred and twelve
(00:29):
million domestically fifty million internationally, for a total of one
hundred and sixty two million dollars worldwide, so it did
two to one domestic to international. Gladiator two had fifty
five million domestically and one hundred and sixty five million internationally,
(00:50):
so it was three to one international to domestic for
a total worldwide of two hundred and twenty million. Gladiator
two did not do real well here in the United States,
but it did gamebusters internationally, and seemingly that's where it's
going to have to make all of its money, because
fifty five million is not all that impressive here, but
(01:12):
it is doing very well overseas. Number three was Red
One that's still hanging around with thirteen million. I don't
know if it's going to be able to make its
money back. That's one with Dwayne Rock Johnson and Chris Evans.
Number four, I'm not familiar with uh Mark. Have you
heard of bon Heifer? Pastor spy aside Bonhoffer?
Speaker 3 (01:34):
Yeah, it's a World War two thing. Okay, all right,
not for me. I believe, I believe, Okay. Number five
still hanging in there.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Venom, the last dance pulled in another three point eight million.
Look as garbage, but it's still made more than four
hundred and fifty six million worldwide. It's turning a profit,
which means there's going to be another dance. It's doing
what it's supposed to do. And this is it's fifth
week in studios. That's a long run for most movies
(02:04):
these days. It's still in the top five after five weeks.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
Yeah, as I said, it's going to stay in the
top five. There's nothing coming out next weekend or the
weekend after that will kick it out of the top five.
The films that are coming out over the next few weeks,
they are distinctively different as far as audience appeal to
(02:29):
Venom and if Venom's appeal is working with the audience
that wants to go see if there's no need for
a theater to not only not keep it in wherever
it's running, but keep the marquees up, keep the posters up,
because people are there for it.
Speaker 5 (02:43):
Man, this Bonhuffer thing looks terrific. It's a World War
two Hitler assassination movie.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Okay, all right, I might check that out.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Yeah, going back to Venom, it's still in twenty five
hundred theaters. And to your point to all, nothing's going
to move it out of the theaters at this point,
and the movie theaters want to stick with something that
people still want to see. And if it brought in
almost four million this week, let's say it'll bring in
another two million next week, and it'll probably divide by half.
(03:11):
It's remaining weekends in theaters. It's making money. I don't
know why. And I love quote unquote superhero movies. You
know how they try to paint the genre. And I
have no desire to see this movie, none at all.
But it's making money, which means that there is an
audience for that whatever. That is, all right, before I
go any further. Who saw Wicked the movie? I saw
(03:34):
Wicked at the stage show. I saw the movie. Oh
you saw the movie too. I saw the movie okay,
and we know that Mark saw Gladiators, so we compare
your review with his review.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
I can say, without ever having watched the play, which
I desperately wanted to see when we had the opportunity
to see it last time it came around, wasn't able
to go.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Why because I think we're working somebody crazy.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
I couldn't make it.
Speaker 4 (04:01):
You're working, Yes, very very upset. I could not see
Wicked on stage. My daughter, she's seen it three times already,
three times.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Manette.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Your daughter's seen Wicked three times, She's seen Hamilton eight
five times. She's been to Taylor Swift, Beyonce. Is there
anything that she does miss?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
No, not nothing, nothing that she wants to see. She's
into the theater and you know, but I went with
my daughter and her mother, who both, of course I've
seen Wicked, and I wanted their perspective as diehard Wicked fans,
me and myself watching it As a fan of musicals films,
(04:37):
I've never been to a musical live on stage outside
like Peter and the Wolf and things like that as
a kid. But I love musical I love everything about them,
and this one was no different. The performances, in particular
Ariana Grande, who I did not know had acting chops
like this. She absolutely ate this film a lot. Ariana
(05:01):
Grande is an absolute star on that screen. Her portrayal
as Glinda was phenomenal. Her comedic timing spot on. She
is amazing on on screen and she can sing Cynthia
or Rero. Every scene that she was in you could
fill the emotion oozing out of her. Then when you
(05:24):
hear her sing, it's next level because your skin tingles.
She is angelic in her portrayal of Alphaba and together
the two of them, there were two distinct moments in
this film that I absolutely let the tears roll down
that I was like, oh my god, these are incredible.
This is a film that I will see in theaters
(05:46):
again and again because I love seeing the music and
the set pieces, the costuming, everything about this film work.
It's not a musical where they're beating you over the
head with the music, but all of them musical choices
they worked. They pushed the story along and from talking
to my daughter, it plays very close to the play,
(06:07):
which I know a lot of times when you do
an adaptation they have to change things add a lot
of stuff this one. They did truncate it in order
to make this Act one, because this is Act one,
in Act two is the sequel, which comes out the
exact same time next year.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Question, from what you see, because I'm trying to think
where Act one ended, did it change or influence what
you thought or felt about the characters.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
And the Wizard of Oz.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Absolutely absolutely seeing this story and seeing how it really
went down. Man, it all depends on who tells the story.
It all depends on who tells it. Very much like
Cobra Kai, very much like Cobra Kai. With we always
thought that Daniel was this innocent kid who was being
picked up. When you watch Cobra Kai, you're like, hey,
(06:56):
seeing this from another angle, maybe he wasn't so In said,
maybe he was the jerk.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Well in the title is a little bit of the
giveaway as far as what it means to be wicked
or not.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Absolutely, And I love how they told that story. I
love how they told the story of how the Wicked
Witch became. I loved the political intrigue behind it. There
were so many different movie pieces.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
That I was like, oh man, she was set up
from the beginning.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
Oh yeah, it crushed me. And I can absolutely see
why she would ride on Oz because wow, wow, yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah. From my understanding it the way this film ended.
It ends at the exact point where intermission happens in
(07:50):
the play. Okay, at that performance, that performance is the
one that goes to intermission. This film ends on that
exact same performance.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
When I say it was only, I'm saying that I
expected it to be in more theaters. It was only
in thirty eight hundred and eighty eight theaters. A super
wide Marvel release or something like that might be in
as many as forty five hundred theaters. This as a
holiday offering and also being number one, I expected to
(08:19):
pick up theaters in the next few weeks, especially after
you get past Thanksgiving and into Christmas, and also as
people start seeing The Wizard of Oz as we always
do during the holiday season. Yes, then there'll be even
more inclined to go see Wicked, and.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
As brilliantly as possibly could be done. They have signs
in the AMC theater saying please do not sing along,
Please do not shout out as hard on stuff, and
they've said they've announced there will be a sing a
long version of Wicked released in the coming week, So
(08:55):
even after this one may die down, they're going to
release the sing along version in theaters. That's brilliant.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Oh it is. It's going to be a moneymaker. And
from what I understand, I haven't seen it yet. Ifrore
understanding what you're reiterating, there's gonna be some Oscar nominations
coming out of there.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Absolutely, absolutely.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
The two leads, Cynthia Rivo and Ariana Grande, absolutely need
to be recognized for their performance. Is the acting that
they delivered on top of the singing. I thought it
was stellar.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
I think the Golden Globes are foregone conclusion because they
have comedy or musical category, which lends itself to this.
So yeah, I think that's a foregone conclusion. When we
come back, we have to talk about We talked about
superhero movies and how it's not that people are tired
of the genre, they're tired of the bad ones. And
(09:47):
we listed the bad ones usually being connected to the
Sony Marvel universe. That's the people who made Venom, that's
the people who made Morbius, that's the people who made
Madam Webb. Those are the bad ones with the getting
ready to offer you one more called Craven the Hunter,
and we're going to talk about that and what people
(10:07):
are feeling about its Get.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
When is it supposed to be released to we like,
is it early next year? No? No, no, no, that's
coming out in a couple of weeks.
Speaker 6 (10:14):
That's all.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
That's why, perfect example, I don't know when this movie's
even coming out. You have to care out like the sixteenth.
Oh gosh, this is a holiday movie. Do they not
know who Craven is?
Speaker 3 (10:24):
He's a hunter?
Speaker 4 (10:25):
And and and I believe that I think if I'm
not mistaken this one, I think is it might even
have a rated R.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
That's what I'm saying, Yeah, because who releases a rated
R movie for the holidays? Looks festive?
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Come on, KFI ams is forty live to everyone in
the I Heart Radio app.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Kelly Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Okay, let me
reset very quickly. There are Marvel movies, and there is
the MCU. The MCU is Marvel Productions. That's when you
hear names like Kevin Faigy. That's Iron Man and Captain
(11:12):
America and those guys.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
That's MCU.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
When you talk about the Marvel Cinematic Universe, you talk
about those movies. Sony has the rights to Spider Man.
They allow Marvel, the Marvel Productions, to produce the Spider
Man movies, and Sony distributes them. Sony has their own
(11:38):
Marvel branded movies which are not in the MCU, that
they produce themselves and they distribute themselves. They have a
full on Spider Man universe which does not have any
Spider Man in it.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
You heard that right.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
It is a Spider Man universe in which there is
no Spider Man.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
It's a rogues gallery. These are low level villains.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
They are low level, not even the best ones, low
level villains that they've turned into anti heroes and made
movies around. Venom was one of my favorite villains. They
have bastardized him. Venom on the movie screen is nothing
like Venom in the comics. Venom is a symbiote and
(12:27):
he is drawn to Peter Parker Spider Man. The stuff
with Tom Hardy is not that. Nonetheless, because they had
success with Venom, they've tried to pull out these other
Spider Man villains and make movies around them, while never
ever referencing Spider Man or including Spider Man. You may
(12:52):
have heard of movies like Morbius or Madam Webb. There
is another installment in Sony Spider Man universe which is
getting ready to come out on Toilette tells me December thirteenth, yep,
And it's Craven the Hunter, and it's going to star
Aaron Taylor Johnson, who I like as an actor. Craven
(13:16):
I like as a character. I do not believe that
I will like this movie, even though I like the
idea of Craven and also Aaron Taylor Johnson. From what
I'm hearing, this may be a decent movie, and at
the minimum, better than Morbius and better than Madam Webb,
(13:38):
and probably better than any of the Venom movies. The
problem is it's going to be a rated R movie
and it's going to be released within the two weeks
before Christmas. That is where you send movies to die.
You don't have our movies released right before Christmas. That's
not a movie that people are going to flock to see,
(14:00):
especially the first week, which is thirteen twelve days before Christmas.
Speaker 4 (14:07):
Now, if it was a horror film, a Christmas themed
horror film. Yes, you could win because there's a whole
silent violent Knight, Violent Knight stuff like that, and those
films won. But those films cost like twenty dollars to make, okay,
and they made forty five yay. So I mean, so
those films are great multipliers. This is a film that
(14:27):
had a big budget, that has all of the superhero
fanfare that goes into making a film like this, and
it is a character of that. Unless you are super
familiar with the comic books, you don't know who Craven
the Hunter is. Craven the Hunter is still one of
the greatest Spider Man villains. Granted he's not a known
(14:49):
name to just the average Joe. I'm sorry, they know
Aaron Taylor Johnson. And if you're a huge fan of his,
sure you may be in this. But how many films
films as he led that were successful. He has not
had a film where it was just him Godzilla and
Saw just him.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Yeah, you know, he was in.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
A Bullet Trains, Bullet Train, a whole bunch of stars.
Brad Pitt was in Bullet Train, all right, So I'm
saying this is This is one of those ones where I'm.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Like, budget is listed about one hundred and fifty million.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Oh, it is unlikely that this movie is gonna make
its money back.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
Now, this is still something that I will see, if
only because it's rated R. It looks very violent and
I like this character, so this is something I will
go see. Venom last Nance, No, because they got me
the first one, you know, and that that's shame on me.
You know, second one, that's shame on them. I'm not
going for a third by the Venom. I will never
(15:49):
see anything having to do with Morbius ever again. And
Madam Webb can be burned in effigy. But this one,
this one, yeah, I may go say this.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Yeah, Madam Webb, I saw against a better judgment and
it was worse than I thought.
Speaker 5 (16:03):
It could possibly be one of the all time worst
comic book movies. But this is a craven movie. It
looks weirdly violent, like not even comic book violent, weirdly
stabby violent. I'm not even sure who this movie's for, but.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Howd Yeah, but it's like the payoff can only be
is if Spider Man is in it and they're doing battle.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
No, it has the Rhino in it, and that's in
the trailers. That's not the spoiler.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
And they've had the Rhino in in a small version
of the Sony Spider Verse.
Speaker 5 (16:36):
Yeah, Rhino doesn't look bad. That's somebody that we've kind
of hoped to see come to life for a while,
but not sure if it could be done without it
being just laugh out loud silly. This looks a little
laughout loud silly.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Well, maybe a little.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
I'll see it, but not until maybe the New year.
I'm not going to be in the rush to see it.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
You know.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
I'll probably catch it on screaming because I know this
is a movie which is going to hit stream by
January first, twenty twenty five. Yeah, yeah, I can't argue it.
I mean, do you see a four week run of
this movie in theaters? I don't think so. I don't
think so.
Speaker 4 (17:12):
Well, when the director's coming out and pleading with fans
of the superheroes genre films to go and see it
there to give it a chance, that's rough, man. You
don't really hear directors coming out begging fans to go
see a film and telling fans, hey don't judge my
film against all the other Sony you listen to them
by name. He's not even shy. He's like, this is
(17:34):
no Venom, Morbius, Madda Webb. My film is none of those.
This is a good movie. That's that's wow.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
A little desperate sounding, but not as desperate as the
state of Alaska. When we come back, we're going to
tell you how Alaska's STD rate is gone through the roof,
specifically gonorrhea and chlamydia. Put your hands together for Alaska.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
I've never been to Alaska.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
I had the opportunity to go for a fraternity meeting
many years ago. Didn't go because I had a scheduling conflict.
But I hear it's gorgeous. It's a wonderful place to visit,
depending on time of year. So this is nothing again
against Alaska. I just have to report the news as
it is presented in front of me. Did you know,
(18:30):
number one, that Alaska only has a population of seven
hundred and thirty three thousand people, And if you want
to compare, Denver, Colorado has seven hundred and thirteen thousand,
Seattle has seven hundred and forty nine thousand in San Francisco.
Here in California has eight hundred and eight thousand. Use
that as a reference point. Alaska had the nation's highest
(18:56):
rate of gonorrhea last year year and the third highest
rate of chlamydia across those seven hundred thousand people. This
is according to the US CDC. The rankings are from
the CDC's newest annual report on STDs, which was released
(19:16):
last week. Nationally, as a point of comparison, gonorrhea rates
dropped from seven percent in twenty twenty two to twenty
twenty three. Nationally, fewer people were coming down with gonorrhea.
Alaska's twenty twenty three rate was also lower than the
(19:37):
state's twenty twenty two rate, but the decline.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Was not as.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Precipitous. It was less than seven percent. If you didn't know,
Gonorrhea can cause infertility in women and men, and infections
that it spread to various parts of the body, and
complications can be a problem for babies, including blindness. Alaska's
going to reorrate to drop from three hundred and fourteen
people per one hundred thousand in twenty twenty two to
(20:08):
three hundred and ten people per one hundred thousand. Last year,
that decline was only was less than one percent. Again,
the national average was down seven percent. I understand that
there's not a lot to do in Alaska, and I
don't begrudge people for getting their freak on because it's
(20:32):
cold outside and there's not a lot to do, But
damn man, use some protection or something. Everyone go to
the doctor at the beginning, find out what you're dealing with.
Have an open conversation. Had that conversation. Have you been
tested recently? Do you clap when you walk? Do you
(20:55):
have a problem with STDs? Do you have more than
fourteen partners who all live in the city, because you know,
they're not that many places where people live in Alaska
for seven hundred and seventeenth to seven hundred and eighteen
thousand people, not a lot.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
And this is true to form.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
STD rates are typically higher in Alaska than in other states.
In twenty ten, Alaska had the nation's highest colamittye rate
and the second highest Gunnerhia rate. So this is something
that Alaska has been excelling at for decades. It has
always been near the top. No pun intended of all STDs.
(21:37):
How can you be burning in Alaska, you can. In
twenty twenty three, Alaska also had syphilis rates higher than
the national average. The state was the eleventh highest for
primary and secondary syphilis. So in other words, not only
do they have syphilis, they've had it for a while
and it's progressing.
Speaker 4 (21:59):
Isn't it like only like two or three clubs, and
like the bar scene isn't that deep in Alaska. There's
not a lot of night clubs. The friend who went
out there to DJ an event, he was like, it
was like the only thing popping. So if you're going
somewhere to pick up on someone, you're picking up on
the same people.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
All I know is if I were still single and
I did visit Alaska, I would not be having sex
with anyone.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
You can't, you can't. They're probably walking around shaking like.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Something, no, no, no, you can you can. There's nothing stopping
you other than bad judgment.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
At this point, with this rate of chlamydia and syphilis
and everything else. I promise you can look and see
the danger signs.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
You can just look and say, like, hey.
Speaker 6 (22:49):
So you're saying, I'm people walking around with open source
on your face, on their faces, on their nether regions,
and I promise you you get down to doing the
new and you're gonna say, oh.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
God, no, Look, far be it from me to chastise
someone for their bad decisions while in the heat of
the moment. Okay, I think we're all adults. I've been there.
I don't know about Stephan. I assume Tuwala has. He's
told me some stories.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
We've all been there, and we probably made.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Some bad decisions, maybe under the influence of alcohol whatever. Yes, okay,
but after a certain point, you need to stop doing
the same thing over and over again. And Alaska is
doing the same thing over and over again. They are
single handedly raising the national average for STDs. Spot the
(23:40):
cruise spot, yes it is, Yes it is. But I
haven't gone on any cruises to Alaska yet, and I
have not disembarked. And I'm not having sex with anybody
who lives in Alaska, not even my wife, thank god.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
If we stop in Alaska.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
I'm not letting her get off the ship because she
might catch something by osmosis or the wind blow or something.
You just don't know, Yeah, you just don't know. Filth
pot Alaska is well. Think I mean, look, I talk
about American exceptionalism. It's like, come on, look, I understand
how Mississippi needs to be last in education, lasted economics,
but you know you're in Alaska.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
You got to do better than that, isn't you that?
Sarah Palin stopping grounds, Yes it is, Yes, it is.
That makes more sense now I would make.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
A connection between Sarah Palin and STDs also stumping.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
Is that the right verb? Yes, it is. It is
the exact verb I was looking for.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
I don't know some of those stories that I read
about the Palins and I just go, oh, yeah, Alaska,
Oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
Is it like a small dating pool? Is that it?
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Are there just fewer people to get get your groove
on with and so you're all just sharing the same stuff?
Or is it there's just more unprotected sex in Alaska.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
It is a combination of both. That's probably a handful
of attractive people. Everyone else is bundled up. Everyone else
is all wrapped up, and then you know it's time
to go to break. Nothing else to say.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on Demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
And before we leave up out of here, I did
want to remind you very important that Pasta fon is
coming up on December third. You can come by the
Anaheim White House on Giving Tuesday, December third and see
the live broadcast, donate on site and drop off pasta
slash Sauce donations. We're broadcasting from the beginning to the end,
from wake Up Call with Amy King all the way
(25:42):
through this show Later with Moe Kelly. This year, we're
celebrating a significant milestone ten million meals serve to disadvantage youth.
Your generosity has been instrumental in reaching this goal, and
we are so grateful for your continued commitment. Remember, even
if you can't, you can still participate in the excitement
(26:02):
of the auction, and we just announced a very very
fabulous item for the auction, compliments of Later with mo Kelly.
You can join in anywhere. Be sure to spread the
word to friends, family, and colleagues. Check out some fantastic

the CAFI Aposta thon, or you can round up your
purchase to donate as well. Every cent is needed and
appreciated as well. Winning restaurants in southern California are offering
coupon books for a donation to Caterina's Club in store
and have to drive through. If you didn't hear earlier,
(26:48):
just want to let you know that our auction item
and it may not even be listed yet, so you'll
get to jump on everyone when it is listed that
later with Mokelly is going to offer this exclusive opportunity
to the highest bidder for you to co host a
Friday night show with me from beginning to end. You'd
(27:08):
be one of the crew along with Mark Ronner, Stefan
and Twalla Sharp. And you know how we do it
on Fridays. If you've ever listened to the show, you
know how we do it. On Fridays. We do nothing
but have fun. We'll have food in the studio and
we'll talk about movies and if you like, you can
engage with callers and even run the movie game yourself
(27:28):
if you would like, and you'll be not only a
co host but a producer of the show. You will
talk about topics that you want to go over subjects
you want to cover. Maybe there's something you want to
dialogue with me regarding the world or whatever the subject
may be. On air, you can do that as well,
whatever it is to your heart's content, but it's going
(27:51):
to be our auction item courtesy of Later with Mo Kelly.
You get to co hosts with me for the entirety
of a Friday show all three hours. It's one thing
to come visit the studios. A lot of people have
done that. It's one thing to sit in the chair
of the host. A lot of people have done that,
(28:13):
or even come in and sit down and be interviewed
for a segment. A lot of people have done that,
but not many can say that they've hosted or co
hosted a show on KFI three hours long. It's not
for the week at Heart. Let me tell you, it's
not for everyone, but it could be a great opportunity
for someone who maybe loves KFI or would want the
(28:34):
opportunity to sit in on the number one news talk
station in America and the number one streamed station on
iHeartRadio app and it could be yours. If the price
is right, I It's bitter, it's going to be our
auction item. It should be up very soon at KFIAM
six forty dot com, forward slash Pastathon or at the
(28:55):
Anaheim white House dot com wherever they have the auction items.
We just sent over the information to producer Michelle today,
but we wanted to let you know tonight and announce
that tonight you can even take shots and Mark Ronner
you can ask him about the weather and why he
was wrong about the weather.
Speaker 5 (29:16):
Here you'll find out there's nothing to it. It's just
as easy as it sounds. Anybody could do it. And
you know what, that's the thing.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
When I talked to would be future radio professionals, maybe
they're coming out of school, they're still in college, maybe
they're in the broadcast journalism, and they say they want
to get into radio, all three of them. The surprise
if they should start out as an intern here when
(29:44):
they're on the microphone for the first time by themselves
and they hear themselves and they realize that it's not
quite the same as let's say, college radio. It's not
quite the same as a music show. It's not quite
the same. When you realize that more than one hundred
(30:05):
thousand people are listening in some fourteen different states terrestrially.
I'm not even talking about on iHeartRadio, where you can
listen around the world. You know, during the Friday night
game name that movie called Class, we have people call
in from Japan and all around the country and Australia
one night the crab Nebula right somewhere outside of approximate Centaurus.
(30:30):
Then they realize, oh, it's a little bigger than I imagine,
but you have some pros here with you to guide
you along. But it's also a fantastic experience where you
get to feel the power of this station and how
many people it can reach. It's a look. When I
say it's the best job in the world, I mean
(30:50):
that in all sincerity. It's the best job in the world,
and it's a great experience that I would want for
anyone who has any desire to be a part of
the history of KFI. And we're offering it to you
later with mo Kelly as a part of Postathon auction.
You can co host this show for three whole hours.
(31:12):
And when I say three whole hours, each segment is
about maybe eight minutes long, So that's twelve segments eight minutes,
about ninety six minutes all together, and it can seem
like an eternity if you're out there by yourself with
no net.
Speaker 5 (31:26):
That is the length of a feature film that you
got to be running your mouth.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
And I know that everyone has one show in them
and this is just one show, so you should be
able to make it through that. But it gets more
and more difficult when you have to deal with whatever
it's in front of you, whatever is happening in the
news that you don't get to decide, you don't get
to determine, or something is breaking news and you just
have to switch gears and deal with it right as
(31:51):
it's happening. And then you realize, oh, it's not as
easy as I thought. It's not quite as easy. But
here's your chance. And I get a lot of messages
from people say, oh, I can do that, here's your chance.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
I can do it better than you, Moe. Here's your chance.
Speaker 7 (32:09):
Literally put your money where you're about this and it's
for a great cause. It's for Katerina's Club, and this
idel will be available to you as the highest bidder.
You can co host later with Mokelly on Friday, name
that movie called Classic The Whole Shebang, three hours. Stephan
will be here, Mark will be here, Twala will be here.
(32:30):
I'll even be here, and you will be here too
if you're the person who wants to be part of this,
so be on the lookout for that. We'll see you tomorrow.
Can if I Am six forty live everywhere in the
iHeartRadio app.
