Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Let's go beyond the box score with our regular commentator
Jackie Ray. Jackie Ray, I feel sometimes the world has
been tuning into this show and they are having events
and situations just because we already talked about it, and
we talked about this idea of sports and politics, how
people fans will complain about athletes having political opinions, and
(00:28):
we're saying, wait, wait, wait, wait wait. You know, athletes
are people. But there's a second side to this, where
the federal government is inserting itself into sports. We saw
that again today with the announcement by President Trump of
the following listen.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
To this because I feel like early but well that's
the wrong clip. That's Paul Pierce. So now Paul will
get you just a second.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
I'm pleased to reveal that the twenty twenty seven NFL Draft,
that's a big thing, will be held right here in
our nation's capital, Washington, DC, on the Nation Mall.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
And you get a little grim savage.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
I don't think I was just saying to Roger, I
don't think there's ever been anything like that.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
That's a good idea.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
Of fact, maybe we could use it for other things.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
Also, I have an idea.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
It's going to be beautiful. It's going to be something
that nobody else will ever be able to duplicate.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
That I don't suspect.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
It's very exciting. Every year, hundreds of young football players
have their dreams come true as the NFL teams across
the land, and you just saw that last week select
the best young players in America to join their ranks.
Hundreds of thousands of football fans will travel all across
our country to cheer them on in person. We expect
(01:40):
would you say, more than one hundred thousand people?
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Okay, let me give us more contexts.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
National Mall, that's what we have presidential inaugurations, and it's
being announced by the president.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
This is almost a fake question.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
But how can we separate sports and politics if the
president is now physically inserting himself in to the NFL draft.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
Right, this is one of those things that theoretically I
wouldn't have a problem with this at all. I wouldn't
have a problem with the president saying, oh, isn't this
a really cool thing? You know, especially with the commanders
talking about going back to Washington because they're in Maryland
right now, correct, So that theoretically he clearly likes football.
He's a football fan.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
And he wants to be part of the NFL as
a owner. Forty years ago.
Speaker 5 (02:23):
Yeah, he wanted to buy the Bills at one point.
So none of this really bothers me on the surface
of it. The only reason that it bothers me is
because of the messenger, because it's coming from a man
who has told everybody athletes need to just play football,
they shouldn't talk about politics. But then he is inserting
in himself and basically doing the very thing he has
told athletes not to do.
Speaker 6 (02:44):
So it bothers me on that front.
Speaker 5 (02:46):
But it also bothers me because Roger Godell in twenty
sixteen with a Colin Kaepernick situation, he was scrutinized very
much because of his position and his friendship with Donald Trump.
So for him to just kind of forget all of
that and pretend that right now he's not just as
if not more polarizing than he was then is tone deaf.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Let me jump in there, because people need some context.
Roger Goodell, it works for the owners. He's the commissioner
of the league, but he's picked by the owners to
advance the interests of the league, not the players. That's
why they have the players Association. Now, I don't expect
Goodell to do anything other than Roger Goodell, and that
(03:28):
means closing up to Donald Trump because at this time,
we've seen it with different law firms, We've seen it
with universities, and now we're seeing it with the NFL.
It is in their best interest to stay on the
good side of the President. But the problem is if
and when players have an issue with that. And we
know we talked about the Eagles going to the White House,
(03:50):
some forty players did not go, did not go, so
there's still an issue. I just don't want the players
to be marginalized or singled out for doing or acknowledging
that the NFL is basically is taking a political stamp.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
Yeah, if it was me and I had a kid
that was going to be in the twenty twenty seven draft,
we would be drafting from home.
Speaker 6 (04:09):
That's just not going to be a thing.
Speaker 5 (04:10):
And I'm sure if it was a child that came
from my womb, he would have no problem with that,
So it wouldn't even be a hard sell. But I
think putting people in that position is the problem. To
your point, though, I think you would have to be
completely tone deaf and blind if you couldn't see that
this makes sense that Roger Goodell, because to your point,
this is a an owners are billionaires, correct, And Donald
(04:32):
Trump is placating to the billionaires. None of us in
this tax bracket he cares about at all, and so
it's his job to make the billionaires happy. But I
think as a country, if we cannot see that, that
doesn't mean the people. When you're placating to the billionaires,
you're not placating to the people. So, yes, this might
be good for a couple of days, but it's not
(04:52):
going to be great for the city as a whole
long term.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Wait wait, let me jump in there, because Roger Goodell
is not the mayor of Washington, DC. Roger that Roger
Goodell is not about the business of uplifting anyone, with
the exception of the financial fortunes or the owners who
I said before have selected him and chosen him to
make more money for them. And if embracing President Trump
in this way, in this manner makes it that there
(05:17):
aren't any type of tariffs or executive actions which may
negatively impact the NFL.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
I don't think anyone should be surprised.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
Yeah, it might negatively impact the Washington Commanders when they
move back because of building materials and the tariffs that
have been placed on certain nations that are going to
make building materials difficult. But it's not going to impact
the owners in any other ways. Besides that, well, well, athletically,
I have to agree and disagree with you.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
It could impact them because you have a team like
the Washington Commanders who historically has been very sensitive to
political issues surrounding the team, and I can see a
situation where if President Trump were to get too cozy
that the f so the commanders might have a reaction.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
I think if they were going to have a reaction,
especially the female fan base, they would have had that
reaction already because of the Washington Commanders have had sexual
miscontext scandals, and we're talking about a president who is
a convicted felon in that manner, So if they were
going to have an issue with it, I think they
would have been loud about that.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
Now.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
For I don't know why people are downplaying who he
is and the convictions that he has but it's definitely happening.
As a mayor, this has to be a profit for
the city. I live in Long Beach. Long Beach is
doing the same thing. Long Beach hasn't invested a dime
in downtown Long Beach forever. But now that the twenty
twenty eight Olympics are coming, now we're seeing all this
push to build infrastructure and make it more livable and
(06:45):
enjoyable basically on the world stage. But inevitably that'll be
more enjoyable for us. So I get the benefits of
the mayor saying, hey, we want this here, but again,
you have to overlook an abundance of hippoc to do it,
and that's the problem for me.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
When we come back, let's talk about Paul Pierce, former
Boston Celtic, former Inglewood High School graduate. So there's an
la tie in Nate Smith basketball Hall of Famer. He
got loose on a podcast and Paul Paul Pierce and
now he does a lot of also sports commentary for ESPN.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
Or is it Fox?
Speaker 6 (07:24):
I think it's ESPN ESPN.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Well, anyhow, he has a lot to say about a
lot of stuff, and what he more recently had to
say about marriage has raised a lot of eyebrows.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
I want to get your thoughts about it when we
come back.
Speaker 6 (07:34):
Let's do it.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
It's Later with Mo Kelly.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
You're still going to be on the box Score with
Jackie Ray, KFIM six forty, Life everywhere in the iHeart
Radio app and on YouTube.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
At mister mom Kelly.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Mister mom Kelly, We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app
and on YouTube. Shout out to Damon, one of my
haters who not only listened to the show, heard that
we were on YouTube, decided to log on and waste
more time to tell me how much he doesn't like me.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
I really do appreciate that, Damon.
Speaker 6 (08:07):
Push the algorithm.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Well, the difference between him talking and me talking is
only one of us gets paid.
Speaker 6 (08:11):
Amen.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Now, not to the show, Jackie Ray.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Paul Pierce, who talked about he's known as an LA
commodity is an NBA Commodity Hall of Famer. Now he's
doing the podcast and sports commentary thing. This is what
he had to say on one of the podcasts about
this that and the other about marriage and I about
lost it. I'm gonna play it for you and want
to get your thoughts hopefully have the right clip.
Speaker 7 (08:35):
Because I feel like our relationship shouldn't be based off sex.
But every relationship is based off of that.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
I don't think, so you.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Can't tell me nothing different.
Speaker 7 (08:43):
This is what I feel and that's why I'll never
be in another relationship because it's always based off of that.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
So you're not going to be in another relationship, no for.
Speaker 7 (08:51):
What, because it's gonna be based off the sex. On's
that way down. You're gonna go fud somebody else that's better. Yeah,
but they ain't gonna be based off of this. This
is the thing. And listen careful.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Now, I want you to listen to this condescension and
dismissiveness here.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
And listen carefully. Listen carefully.
Speaker 7 (09:07):
Let me say you what marriage is all about, or
let me say what marriage is and who's marriage for
marriage is for old people and poor people.
Speaker 6 (09:15):
Okay, so let's get into that.
Speaker 7 (09:16):
Why Because when you broke our parents, like my mom's
and all them, they married on a marriage of like, Okay,
we're gonna put our incomes together and have all these
kids and then with our kids. We have five ten
kids back in the sixties, all of them they got
five to ten kids so they can work and bring income. Yeah,
so you poor, So you married for that, and now
(09:37):
when you get old, somebody that to beat all your
side to take care of you. Right now, my moa
got married. My mom's never been married in my lifetime.
She got married when she was seventy.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Wait wait, wait, and he's still alive.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Wait wait wait, my mom has never been married in
my lifetime.
Speaker 6 (09:53):
Is he talking to us from the great mind? And
I dis missed that.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
My mom has never been married in my lifetime. She
got married when she was.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
My mom's never been married in my lifetime. She's got
married when she was seventy.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
So life is over. Life is over for him. He's
done now.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
How can those two things be true at the same time.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
My mom's never been married in my lifetime. She got
married with shee was seventy.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
And he said it was such confidence. It's the confidence.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
But he was talking about Listen, listen right here, I'm
going to explain this and break it down for you.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
My mom've never been married in my lifetime. She got
married with she fels seventy.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Wow, and she's saying, wow, because Paul Pierce, you're not
the You're the dullest pencil in the box.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
But what is your takeaway?
Speaker 6 (10:34):
Well, first of all, isn't Paul Pierce married?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
No, he is divorced. He had three kids, got married
in twenty ten.
Speaker 6 (10:41):
So did he get married because he was poor at
that time?
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Maybe he's a philosopher now he obviously has a degree
of wisdom about marriage, and he's using that to further
spread his knowledge. I don't know, but this is a
guy who was caught when he was working for ESPN.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
He works for Fox. Now.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
When he was working for ESPN, he had a like
a strippers party, and he was live streaming his strippers
party with booties in his.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
St I was calling more booties, yeah to the party.
And I think he was married at that time, Yes,
I remember that. So you know, I think some people
in the chat that announced that their departing might take
advice from Paul Pierce on marriage. But I don't think
anyone with common sense would because again, this is a
man who said that his mom hasn't been married in
his lifetime, and then he's still here. This is a
(11:33):
man that you stopped listening to anything. If he if
he says the sky is blue, you need to go
outside and look for yourself because you cannot trust what
he's saying. But what he's really saying is I'm jaded.
I am a man who I married for sex and
then and she probably she might have married him for money.
Maybe maybe, but then when the money, when the money
and the sex was enough, and then maybe she left.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
Now he's just bitter.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
And now he's saying, no one gets married for any
other reason. No one could possibly get married for love
or to start.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
A family, right, you know, because if you get married
in your twenties, it's not because your poorness, right, sily right,
And that's the poor man's mentality.
Speaker 5 (12:09):
Yes, And the math and math, and he said, you
get married when you're young so you can have a
whole bunch of kids, so then they can work and
bring in money. Do you know how long you have
to provide for those children before they can work?
Speaker 3 (12:20):
At least twenty twenty five years.
Speaker 6 (12:21):
The math is not mathing.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
My mom's never been married about lifetime. She married when
she was seventy. I'm going to keep that forever.
Speaker 6 (12:30):
It might have been.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
He might have go ahead, Sam, you're gonna say, I
gotta say this.
Speaker 8 (12:34):
It sounds like I was saying to myself from the beginning,
I saying, Wow, it sounds like he's never really had
an intellectual connection with any of his romantic partners throughout
his life.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
No, but I think I might be swinging backwards on
this one.
Speaker 8 (12:44):
I think no woman is intellectually connected with him, right
if he's seen stuff like my you know, you know,
my mom has never been married in my lifetime and
now she's married at seventy.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
But Sam, you are the resident sex doctor. Okay, so
you're looking at this through a different prism that maybe
the rest of us. He Paul pires has invoked sex
as in the principal reason why anyone gets in any relationship.
He didn't even say marriage, He just said relationship. Yeah,
and that is the arbiter of whether he stays or
or he moves on. That says to me that he
(13:15):
has a fractured mentality and a warped mentalities around any
type of quote unquote healthy relationship, maybe after thirteen years
in the NBA and dealing with groupies on top of
his wife.
Speaker 8 (13:26):
Not In addition to well, it's also the idea that
it was a joke that Norm MacDonald came up with.
You don't pay people for sex to stay over, you
pay them to leave. And it seems like he's had
enough with actual relationships and he's just looking because he
has enough money to be able to pay for whatever
sexual needs he has. He's not looking for any intellectual
(13:49):
connection or partnership. That's why he's saying stuff like I
think poor people have relationships, I think old people have relationships.
He has the money, and he is still physically able
to carry all those sexual desires out that he wants,
and once he gets old, that's when he's gonna be like, Okay,
I need to slow down.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
I'm gonna say maybe on that he's still able to
carry out whatever because that well, he hadn't a lot
because men who are able don't talk like Paul Pierce's back.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
I want to hear your thoughts on this.
Speaker 8 (14:23):
I think he's had a lot of trauma in his
life and that's where it's all coming out, and his
whole view of relationships it's just very skewed.
Speaker 5 (14:31):
And he could have been the one that he could
be exactly who he says he is, and he could
have had these toxic relationships. He's attracted women to him
that maybe he had from having these let's have all
these women that are for sale parties, and then maybe
he got married to one. Who knows the reason, but
he's definitely jaded, and now he just thinks that And
that's the problem with our society as a whole. You
(14:52):
think that your circumstances dictate what everybody else is going through.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
And just because you experienced something, it doesn't make you
an expert on the right thing. Having some experience doesn't
make you the expert. I'm quite sure he's been with
plenty of women. I don't doubt that at all, But
he's definitely not an expert on connection or relationship or
the merits of marriage. Right, And if I were to
ask him his thoughts on I don't know, twenty different
(15:17):
other subjects, he probably would be on that same level
as in barely coherent.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
My mom's never been married in my lifetime.
Speaker 5 (15:23):
She got married with seventy well, talking to a whole ghost,
I don't know, is Mom the ghost or is he
the ghost?
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Because in his lifetime would seem to mention that he's.
Speaker 5 (15:37):
Dead now right, somebody's gone.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
Oh that much one more time. Mom's never been married
in my lifetime. She got married with seventy.
Speaker 6 (15:47):
It's the confidence for me, like you know, listen, listen.
Speaker 7 (15:52):
So you poor, so you married for that and now
when you get old, somebody that to beat on your
side to take.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Care of you.
Speaker 7 (16:00):
Right now, Mama, I'm married her. Mom've never been married
in my lifetime. She's got married when she was seventy.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Wow. No, not wow.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
It was the wow too, like she just w wasn't
She was probably saying, wow, you are an idiot, right.
Speaker 6 (16:12):
Like who booked you? I can't believe you said.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
That, after saying listen, listen, okay, it's Later with mo Kelly,
can't by AM six forty live everywhere in the iHeartRadio
app and on YouTube.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
Did you know there's no T and sketchers, never has them?
Speaker 7 (16:34):
Maybe what you're talking about romol T is always in sketches,
T and D sketches, slippy ins, T and D sketches,
slip ins.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Pity the fool have to touch his shoes to put
them on.
Speaker 9 (16:45):
T and Z sketches snippy in pity the food bends
down to put on that shoe.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
How pity the pool isn't in sketch of slippery See.
Speaker 9 (16:54):
Romol Ta is always in sketches.
Speaker 10 (16:56):
I'm just saying people off and misspell Sketchers and put
a tea.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
Quit saying it's not okay.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
If I am six forties later with Mo Kelly, We're
live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app and YouTube. And if
you don't know, I love Sketchers. When I get Christmas
gifts or people say, Mo, what do you want for Christmas?
Sketcher's gift card? Don't you want anything else? No Sketcher's
skift card? My what shoes are you wearing right now? Sketchers?
Are you wearing those shoes where you don't have to tie,
(17:21):
you know, bend over to tie your shoes?
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Correct? I just walk into them, just like in that
commercial with Tony Romo and Mister T.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
I was a Sketchers fan back in I will say
the late nineties, before anybody knew about them. And part
of the reason was that Sketchers made shoes which were
wide enough for my foot.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
I have a wide foot. They felt beautiful on my feet.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
I was an early adopter of Sketchers, and then all
of a sudden they started doing commercials, They became popular,
they started having their own outlet sales, and then people say, oh,
I'm Sketchers fan too, don't know. I was one of
the original Sketchers fans. So when I saw this story
about Sketchers going private, I was also while surprised, and
(18:05):
I was concerned. Here's the story, we'll talk about it
on the other side Sketcher Shoes.
Speaker 10 (18:10):
Well, here's another way of dealing with economic uncertainty. Leave
the stock market, and that's what Sketchers is doing. The
company is accepting a buyout offer from a private investment
firm three G Capital, to the tune of about nine
point four billion dollars to go private, which means its
shares will no longer be listed on the Stock exchange
(18:30):
and it will then go forward in that capacity. Sketcher
says that this deal represents what it calls the next chapter.
After three decades in business. Mindful though, Skechers has joined
other shoe companies in seeking an exemption from President Trump's
tariffs because most footwear is in fact manufactured abroad, meaning.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Let's stop there and That's real important because when you
take a company private, I don't know, or if you
actually take it public, if he goes in either direction,
I don't know the company that it was beforehand is
going to be the same afterward.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
I don't know if we'll have the same emphasis.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
I don't know if we'll have the same direction, the
same dedication to the quality of shoe.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Now, when you.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
Also include the possibility of terras, that is going to
impact every shoe company, especially Sketches. Because most shoes of shoes,
especially sports wear, is manufactured outside the United States.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
This is going to impact sketchers.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
I continue to believe the Sketches will be one of
the premier sports where companies. If you don't know about Sketchers,
you're really missing out. But it's not for everyone, but
it's definitely for me. Say, do you have any Sketchers
at home?
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (19:42):
I got two different pairs of the Walkins. Those are
the most comfortable ones I got. And I was surprised
they actually have some pretty nice, you know, like dress shoes.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
They've changed.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Yes, I have like two or three pairs of their
dress shoes. Now, when I thought like Sketches were just
kind of casual sneakers, slip lawns. They weren't really trying
to go any not that they're high end, but they're
passable because I'm at an age where I don't need
that hard wing tip shoe. If I'm wearing a suit,
I will put on some sketches, some nice looking sketches
(20:15):
with a suit in a heartbeat, and nobody will know
the difference.
Speaker 8 (20:18):
Nobody can tell. And those are comfortable, So yeah, I
have no complaints on that. The only thing that I'm
said about is though the one in Burbank closed down,
So anytime I was in a like in crunch and
I needed some shoes, I just run over there, grab
some shoes, and now I gotta I think there's The
one that I went to most recently is up in
Woodland Hills.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
The one you have to go to, and I'm gonna
shout them out because it's the best one.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
It's an outlet store. It's in Torrents.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
I think it's taunts, but it's one ninetieth Street in Vermont.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
It okay, it's a superstore.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
They have all the men's all the women's shoes, and
the sports where it is huge. It's strange because it's
fewer than five miles from Dilomo Mall, where they have
a Diloma Mall store, which is much smaller, doesn't have much,
but if you go to that's outlet on one ninety
eighth in Vermont, you will find just about anything they
have to offer.
Speaker 8 (21:05):
I need to go over there because some of the
ones I like are discontinued.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Yes, yeah, and.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
I look for them online and then I know they'll
have them at that superstore.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
And here's something else.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
If you shop at Sketchers consistently, you will most likely
happen upon a buy two, get one free, and I
go crazy. You get two at the regular price, and
you get third of an equal or lesser price, and
I'll come out with like six pairs of shoes.
Speaker 8 (21:30):
Yeah, And until my kid figured out Jordan's, I went
and got them those two for one Sketchers and it
made a huge difference. Nowadays, he's like, I want Jordans. Yeah,
what are Jordans going for? Like three fifty or something.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
I don't look at the price, Okay, I just get depressed.
Every time I've had two pairs of Jordans in my life.
Both of them were under one hundred dollars, one because
I'm outlet shopping, and two I could write them off.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Because I'm working as a sports referee.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
So I can buy them and justifiably buy them, but
I can't spend three hundred dollars in the shoe, which
comes back to Sketchers, where I know everything we want
to buy from Sketches is about seventy five dollars or fewer.
That's about it. That's about it. And not only do
they look nice, they're super comfortable.
Speaker 8 (22:13):
I like predictable, you know, decent quality shoes, and those
are solid.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
You can't you can't go wrong, can't beat them. But
this goes back to the story.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
This concerns me because whenever you have a merger or acquisition,
whoever owns it is going to take it in a
different direction.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
And I don't know what that's going to look like.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
I don't know what that pun intended is going to
feel like, and I don't know if I'll still have
the same affinity for the companies I did before. I
feel like I was one of the early adopters and
I had the benefit of being in love with Sketchers
for a decade before anyone else ever even figured out
about them, and now it might all go away.
Speaker 8 (22:52):
Yeah, well we'll see. Well, hopefully they at least keep
the same quality of shoes that we enjoy. But yeah,
if they're going to be going in this kind of direction,
you have to expect there to be some kind of
business model shift.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
And I know who moved my cheese. Nobody likes change.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty CAFI.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
It's Later with Mo Kelly. We're live everywhere, the iHeartRadio
app and YouTube. And since we have some cat lovers
in the crew tonight, it's only appropriate that we talk
about the cat breed, which corresponds with your zodiac sign.
And there's been some shout outs for Eileen Gonzales. They say,
why isn't Eileen on camera? Because Eileen doesn't want to
(23:35):
be distracted by the camera.
Speaker 6 (23:37):
Oh, I don't mind.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
Okay, then we'll Praven.
Speaker 6 (23:39):
War makeup today.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
Yeah, no, biggie, Okay, Daniel, you heard that, you know? Okay?
All right, we thought we were protecting you. I guess not.
Speaker 6 (23:49):
I did twenty years of TV. I'm used to it,
all right.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
There make us all look like liars.
Speaker 6 (23:56):
Somebody didn't want me on here.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
I just kidding, Aries, t Well, I'm not saying this
on air. Yes, no, I'm not.
Speaker 9 (24:03):
That is a very popular cat. It may be, and
it is okay to say.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Okay, we're gonna say it, and we're gonna brush by
it and keep on moving. Yes, Aries, your cat for
your zodiac sign is a main coon. Yes, and we'll
go right on past that. It's a beautiful cats. If
those cats are giant, I don't they're damn. I don't
give a damn. Taurus, you're a rag doll? Is there
a cat breed that captures your serenity Taurus? As an
(24:31):
easy going Earth sign, you're not about the drama and fussiness.
Neither is the rag doll, which is a breed beloved
for its calm temperament. Rag Dolls are named as such
because these cute kiddies tend to go limp when they're okay.
Speaker 9 (24:44):
They they go lit when they're picked up and cuddled.
How't died you choose a further explain, But that's what
the cats do. They're and oh man.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Your corresponding cat with your zodiac sign is Siamese.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Are you allowed to say that anymore. Yes, that's the
name of the cat.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Okay gee, I look, you know, in this politically correct environment,
we have to make sure.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Name of the cat.
Speaker 9 (25:05):
It is no longer about trying to demean a continent
or a people or anything.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
So I can't call it a handicap, noboddy, nothing, nothing.
Speaker 9 (25:18):
Come on, Sam laughed at it.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Which cat breed for? Gemini?
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Exudire intelligence and mischievousness and chattiness, Gemini the Siamese. Not
only is the Siamese beloved for its unique coloring, but
it's also one of the smartest, most vocal cat breeds.
Siamese are curious felines who love getting into all types
of trouble. You know, the Siamese is meant for you,
since the kidie needs to be preoccupied and entertained at
all times. If you're looking for a mere, curial companion,
(25:47):
consider inviting a Siamese into your life. Cancer, you are
a Scottish Fold.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
Yes, I love those cats.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Given that you're an impath, you cannot be paired with
a picky cat. Cancer, You may feel strongly connected to
the Scottish Fold because this kitty exemplifies your loving, affectionate nature.
Scottish folds are known to bond with everyone in their lives,
so you can be rest assured that this kitty will
undoubtedly love you as much as you love them. Aside
from the Scottish fold's familial energy, you may fall for
(26:16):
this kitty's distinct yet darling folded ears. Lego, you're an
Egyptian maw Leo, you ought to be paired with the
cat breed who exemplifies your regality. Of all the cat breeds,
the Egyptian male shares your dignified, expressive energy. Egyptian moles
exudes your refinery and elegance while maintaining a loyal, passionate personality. Okay, yes, Virgo,
(26:40):
you're a Russian blue. Aileen, what is your cat breed?
Speaker 3 (26:43):
By chance?
Speaker 6 (26:45):
He's a domestic short hair, just a gray tabby.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
That means nothing to me, but okay.
Speaker 6 (26:50):
Silver tabby.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
Okay, all right, it's a regular cat. Though it's a
silver Tabby's beautiful.
Speaker 6 (26:55):
Can you see them?
Speaker 2 (26:55):
They're all regular to me. Now we have to get
a ki hammer shot of her. Actually, Daniel, get eleens folk.
Speaker 6 (27:06):
This is my cat's.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
If my cat had a tender profile, this would be
his picture.
Speaker 8 (27:10):
I love.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
We gotta get that on air somehow, So Daniel, get
Eileen's phone so we can get this on the air
on our YouTube stream. Virgo, you're a Russian Blue. As
a quick, nervous mercurial sign. You may feel strongly connected
to all kinds of kitties. However, the Russian Blue exudes
your bright, yet shy nature.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
Virgo.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
You may be initially drawn to this kitty for its
bluish coat, curious eyes, and per tears, but as you
get to know the timid Russian Blue, you may feel
more connected to this kitty's folklore. According to Russian folklore,
Russian blues are associated with healing abilities. Call upon the
Russian Blue when you require peace, need a quick solution,
or want to focus on healing. Libra, You're a Himalayan.
(27:51):
Every kitty is gorgeous in its own way. I don't
know about that. I'm a dog guy. What they are?
Speaker 9 (27:56):
All these cats are grg You're just running by these
because you hate them?
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Well, yeah, I don't like the hairless cats either. But
you will be captivated by the Himalayans loveliness.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
Sleeper.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
Your Venusian side will fall for the Himalayans famed appearance.
This kitty is well known for its luxurious coat, beautiful coloring,
and smushed face.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Scorpio, this is you, Tulla.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
Yes, you're a bombab all right, So Twala and Eileen
or Scorpios, you're both Bombays.
Speaker 3 (28:21):
Bombas are beautiful, my kids. Actually it's a black cat.
It's not a black cat.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
It is a sleek, panther like black cat.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Very loving.
Speaker 9 (28:30):
It will lick you, it will cuddle up and try
to careful, now, careful, It'll paw, It'll paw you.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Look.
Speaker 9 (28:36):
These cats are beautiful.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Bombays are beautiful. Okay, Scorpio's Bombas. We can keep on moving.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
Secretarious, Bombay, Secretarius, that's me.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
I'm a savannah cat. My ideal cat is wilder than
the average house cat, like a lion or tiger. Although
you may resonate with these big cats, you will also
align with the domesticated savannah cat. The special cat breed
is a high between the wild, servile and domestic breeds,
giving you the best of both worlds. You will fall
in love with the cat's exotic loots, exotic looks, and
(29:08):
dog like personality.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
Look at don't you ever doubt this will? I will
never be a cat owner. Okay, and dog like qualities okay,
if I want dog.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
If I want dog like qualities and just get a dog,
oh wow, I have to look at that.
Speaker 6 (29:25):
Lets work. They're immediately body trained. You just put litter
box out. They know what to do.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
If I want to be ignored, I'll get a wife.
Oh that's right, I got one. That's true. She does
not listen. Capricorn, your cat is a Persian. Let's hurry
up to this. As a Saturnian star sign, you may
feel highly connected to all cat breeds. Capricorn, every kid.
(29:50):
He speaks to your soul. But you're tried and true.
Feline counterpart is none other than the Persian cat. And Aquarius.
You're a Havana brown being the rarest zodiac sign suggest
you should be paired with an equally unique feline. Aquarius,
look no further since you will fall for the Havana
brown cat. The solid brown kitty is extremely rare and
highly sought after, just like you and Pisces. You're a
(30:13):
cell kirk Rex. I don't know what the hell that is.
There's a picture of it right there. I know what
the picture looks like. I'm just saying I don't know
what the cat is. I don't know what a sell
Kirk is or what's a by kirk. Was it like
a Tyrannosaurus rex. While you may see yourself in many
delightful cat breeds, you will ultimately resonate with the cell
kirk Rex pisces. How could you resist this curly haired
kitty easily? Sell kirk Rexes are specifically bred for their
(30:36):
curly coats, giving them an irresistible appearance, and that is
your heart.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
I don't go fill with so much hate because I
don't like cats.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Caf I am six forty one, live everywhere on YouTube
and the iHeartRadio app Talk without.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
The tilt ks. I'm KOST HD two, Los Angeles, Orange
County lives everywhere on the radio.
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Let's go beyond the box score with our regular commentator
Jackie Ray. Jackie Ray, I feel sometimes the world has
been tuning into this show and they are having events
and situations just because we already talked about it, and
we talked about this idea of sports and politics, how
people fans will complain about athletes having political opinions, and
(00:28):
we're saying, wait, wait, wait, wait wait. You know, athletes
are people. But there's a second side to this, where
the federal government is inserting itself into sports. We saw
that again today with the announcement by President Trump of
the following listen.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
To this because I feel like early but well that's
the wrong clip. That's Paul Pierce. So now Paul will
get you just a second.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
I'm pleased to reveal that the twenty twenty seven NFL Draft,
that's a big thing, will be held right here in
our nation's capital, Washington, DC, on the Nation Mall.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
And you get a little grim savage.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
I don't think I was just saying to Roger, I
don't think there's ever been anything like that.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
That's a good idea.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
Of fact, maybe we could use it for other things.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
Also, I have an idea.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
It's going to be beautiful. It's going to be something
that nobody else will ever be able to duplicate.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
That I don't suspect.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
It's very exciting. Every year, hundreds of young football players
have their dreams come true as the NFL teams across
the land, and you just saw that last week select
the best young players in America to join their ranks.
Hundreds of thousands of football fans will travel all across
our country to cheer them on in person. We expect
(01:40):
would you say, more than one hundred thousand people?
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Okay, let me give us more contexts.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
National Mall, that's what we have presidential inaugurations, and it's
being announced by the president.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
This is almost a fake question.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
But how can we separate sports and politics if the
president is now physically inserting himself in to the NFL draft.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
Right, this is one of those things that theoretically I
wouldn't have a problem with this at all. I wouldn't
have a problem with the president saying, oh, isn't this
a really cool thing? You know, especially with the commanders
talking about going back to Washington because they're in Maryland
right now, correct, So that theoretically he clearly likes football.
He's a football fan.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
And he wants to be part of the NFL as
a owner. Forty years ago.
Speaker 5 (02:23):
Yeah, he wanted to buy the Bills at one point.
So none of this really bothers me on the surface
of it. The only reason that it bothers me is
because of the messenger, because it's coming from a man
who has told everybody athletes need to just play football,
they shouldn't talk about politics. But then he is inserting
in himself and basically doing the very thing he has
told athletes not to do.
Speaker 6 (02:44):
So it bothers me on that front.
Speaker 5 (02:46):
But it also bothers me because Roger Godell in twenty
sixteen with a Colin Kaepernick situation, he was scrutinized very
much because of his position and his friendship with Donald Trump.
So for him to just kind of forget all of
that and pretend that right now he's not just as
if not more polarizing than he was then is tone deaf.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Let me jump in there, because people need some context.
Roger Goodell, it works for the owners. He's the commissioner
of the league, but he's picked by the owners to
advance the interests of the league, not the players. That's
why they have the players Association. Now, I don't expect
Goodell to do anything other than Roger Goodell, and that
(03:28):
means closing up to Donald Trump because at this time,
we've seen it with different law firms, We've seen it
with universities, and now we're seeing it with the NFL.
It is in their best interest to stay on the
good side of the President. But the problem is if
and when players have an issue with that. And we
know we talked about the Eagles going to the White House,
(03:50):
some forty players did not go, did not go, so
there's still an issue. I just don't want the players
to be marginalized or singled out for doing or acknowledging
that the NFL is basically is taking a political stamp.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
Yeah, if it was me and I had a kid
that was going to be in the twenty twenty seven draft,
we would be drafting from home.
Speaker 6 (04:09):
That's just not going to be a thing.
Speaker 5 (04:10):
And I'm sure if it was a child that came
from my womb, he would have no problem with that,
So it wouldn't even be a hard sell. But I
think putting people in that position is the problem. To
your point, though, I think you would have to be
completely tone deaf and blind if you couldn't see that
this makes sense that Roger Goodell, because to your point,
this is a an owners are billionaires, correct, And Donald
(04:32):
Trump is placating to the billionaires. None of us in
this tax bracket he cares about at all, and so
it's his job to make the billionaires happy. But I
think as a country, if we cannot see that, that
doesn't mean the people. When you're placating to the billionaires,
you're not placating to the people. So, yes, this might
be good for a couple of days, but it's not
(04:52):
going to be great for the city as a whole
long term.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Wait wait, let me jump in there, because Roger Goodell
is not the mayor of Washington, DC. Roger that Roger
Goodell is not about the business of uplifting anyone, with
the exception of the financial fortunes or the owners who
I said before have selected him and chosen him to
make more money for them. And if embracing President Trump
in this way, in this manner makes it that there
(05:17):
aren't any type of tariffs or executive actions which may
negatively impact the NFL.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
I don't think anyone should be surprised.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
Yeah, it might negatively impact the Washington Commanders when they
move back because of building materials and the tariffs that
have been placed on certain nations that are going to
make building materials difficult. But it's not going to impact
the owners in any other ways. Besides that, well, well, athletically,
I have to agree and disagree with you.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
It could impact them because you have a team like
the Washington Commanders who historically has been very sensitive to
political issues surrounding the team, and I can see a
situation where if President Trump were to get too cozy
that the f so the commanders might have a reaction.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
I think if they were going to have a reaction,
especially the female fan base, they would have had that
reaction already because of the Washington Commanders have had sexual
miscontext scandals, and we're talking about a president who is
a convicted felon in that manner, So if they were
going to have an issue with it, I think they
would have been loud about that.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
Now.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
For I don't know why people are downplaying who he
is and the convictions that he has but it's definitely happening.
As a mayor, this has to be a profit for
the city. I live in Long Beach. Long Beach is
doing the same thing. Long Beach hasn't invested a dime
in downtown Long Beach forever. But now that the twenty
twenty eight Olympics are coming, now we're seeing all this
push to build infrastructure and make it more livable and
(06:45):
enjoyable basically on the world stage. But inevitably that'll be
more enjoyable for us. So I get the benefits of
the mayor saying, hey, we want this here, but again,
you have to overlook an abundance of hippoc to do it,
and that's the problem for me.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
When we come back, let's talk about Paul Pierce, former
Boston Celtic, former Inglewood High School graduate. So there's an
la tie in Nate Smith basketball Hall of Famer. He
got loose on a podcast and Paul Paul Pierce and
now he does a lot of also sports commentary for ESPN.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
Or is it Fox?
Speaker 6 (07:24):
I think it's ESPN ESPN.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Well, anyhow, he has a lot to say about a
lot of stuff, and what he more recently had to
say about marriage has raised a lot of eyebrows.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
I want to get your thoughts about it when we
come back.
Speaker 6 (07:34):
Let's do it.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
It's Later with Mo Kelly.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
You're still going to be on the box Score with
Jackie Ray, KFIM six forty, Life everywhere in the iHeart
Radio app and on YouTube.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
At mister mom Kelly.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Mister mom Kelly, We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app
and on YouTube. Shout out to Damon, one of my
haters who not only listened to the show, heard that
we were on YouTube, decided to log on and waste
more time to tell me how much he doesn't like me.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
I really do appreciate that, Damon.
Speaker 6 (08:07):
Push the algorithm.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Well, the difference between him talking and me talking is
only one of us gets paid.
Speaker 6 (08:11):
Amen.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Now, not to the show, Jackie Ray.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Paul Pierce, who talked about he's known as an LA
commodity is an NBA Commodity Hall of Famer. Now he's
doing the podcast and sports commentary thing. This is what
he had to say on one of the podcasts about
this that and the other about marriage and I about
lost it. I'm gonna play it for you and want
to get your thoughts hopefully have the right clip.
Speaker 7 (08:35):
Because I feel like our relationship shouldn't be based off sex.
But every relationship is based off of that.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
I don't think, so you.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Can't tell me nothing different.
Speaker 7 (08:43):
This is what I feel and that's why I'll never
be in another relationship because it's always based off of that.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
So you're not going to be in another relationship, no for.
Speaker 7 (08:51):
What, because it's gonna be based off the sex. On's
that way down. You're gonna go fud somebody else that's better. Yeah,
but they ain't gonna be based off of this. This
is the thing. And listen careful.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Now, I want you to listen to this condescension and
dismissiveness here.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
And listen carefully. Listen carefully.
Speaker 7 (09:07):
Let me say you what marriage is all about, or
let me say what marriage is and who's marriage for
marriage is for old people and poor people.
Speaker 6 (09:15):
Okay, so let's get into that.
Speaker 7 (09:16):
Why Because when you broke our parents, like my mom's
and all them, they married on a marriage of like, Okay,
we're gonna put our incomes together and have all these
kids and then with our kids. We have five ten
kids back in the sixties, all of them they got
five to ten kids so they can work and bring income. Yeah,
so you poor, So you married for that, and now
(09:37):
when you get old, somebody that to beat all your
side to take care of you. Right now, my moa
got married. My mom's never been married in my lifetime.
She got married when she was seventy.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Wait wait, wait, and he's still alive.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Wait wait wait, my mom has never been married in
my lifetime.
Speaker 6 (09:53):
Is he talking to us from the great mind? And
I dis missed that.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
My mom has never been married in my lifetime. She
got married when she was.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
My mom's never been married in my lifetime. She's got
married when she was seventy.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
So life is over. Life is over for him. He's
done now.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
How can those two things be true at the same time.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
My mom's never been married in my lifetime. She got
married with shee was seventy.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
And he said it was such confidence. It's the confidence.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
But he was talking about Listen, listen right here, I'm
going to explain this and break it down for you.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
My mom've never been married in my lifetime. She got
married with she fels seventy.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Wow, and she's saying, wow, because Paul Pierce, you're not
the You're the dullest pencil in the box.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
But what is your takeaway?
Speaker 6 (10:34):
Well, first of all, isn't Paul Pierce married?
Speaker 2 (10:37):
No, he is divorced. He had three kids, got married
in twenty ten.
Speaker 6 (10:41):
So did he get married because he was poor at
that time?
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Maybe he's a philosopher now he obviously has a degree
of wisdom about marriage, and he's using that to further
spread his knowledge. I don't know, but this is a
guy who was caught when he was working for ESPN.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
He works for Fox. Now.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
When he was working for ESPN, he had a like
a strippers party, and he was live streaming his strippers
party with booties in his.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
St I was calling more booties, yeah to the party.
And I think he was married at that time, Yes,
I remember that. So you know, I think some people
in the chat that announced that their departing might take
advice from Paul Pierce on marriage. But I don't think
anyone with common sense would because again, this is a
man who said that his mom hasn't been married in
his lifetime, and then he's still here. This is a
(11:33):
man that you stopped listening to anything. If he if
he says the sky is blue, you need to go
outside and look for yourself because you cannot trust what
he's saying. But what he's really saying is I'm jaded.
I am a man who I married for sex and
then and she probably she might have married him for money.
Maybe maybe, but then when the money, when the money
and the sex was enough, and then maybe she left.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
Now he's just bitter.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
And now he's saying, no one gets married for any
other reason. No one could possibly get married for love
or to start.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
A family, right, you know, because if you get married
in your twenties, it's not because your poorness, right, sily right,
And that's the poor man's mentality.
Speaker 5 (12:09):
Yes, And the math and math, and he said, you
get married when you're young so you can have a
whole bunch of kids, so then they can work and
bring in money. Do you know how long you have
to provide for those children before they can work?
Speaker 3 (12:20):
At least twenty twenty five years.
Speaker 6 (12:21):
The math is not mathing.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
My mom's never been married about lifetime. She married when
she was seventy. I'm going to keep that forever.
Speaker 6 (12:30):
It might have been.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
He might have go ahead, Sam, you're gonna say, I
gotta say this.
Speaker 8 (12:34):
It sounds like I was saying to myself from the beginning,
I saying, Wow, it sounds like he's never really had
an intellectual connection with any of his romantic partners throughout
his life.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
No, but I think I might be swinging backwards on
this one.
Speaker 8 (12:44):
I think no woman is intellectually connected with him, right
if he's seen stuff like my you know, you know,
my mom has never been married in my lifetime and
now she's married at seventy.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
But Sam, you are the resident sex doctor. Okay, so
you're looking at this through a different prism that maybe
the rest of us. He Paul pires has invoked sex
as in the principal reason why anyone gets in any relationship.
He didn't even say marriage, He just said relationship. Yeah,
and that is the arbiter of whether he stays or
or he moves on. That says to me that he
(13:15):
has a fractured mentality and a warped mentalities around any
type of quote unquote healthy relationship, maybe after thirteen years
in the NBA and dealing with groupies on top of
his wife.
Speaker 8 (13:26):
Not In addition to well, it's also the idea that
it was a joke that Norm MacDonald came up with.
You don't pay people for sex to stay over, you
pay them to leave. And it seems like he's had
enough with actual relationships and he's just looking because he
has enough money to be able to pay for whatever
sexual needs he has. He's not looking for any intellectual
(13:49):
connection or partnership. That's why he's saying stuff like I
think poor people have relationships, I think old people have relationships.
He has the money, and he is still physically able
to carry all those sexual desires out that he wants,
and once he gets old, that's when he's gonna be like, Okay,
I need to slow down.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
I'm gonna say maybe on that he's still able to
carry out whatever because that well, he hadn't a lot
because men who are able don't talk like Paul Pierce's back.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
I want to hear your thoughts on this.
Speaker 8 (14:23):
I think he's had a lot of trauma in his
life and that's where it's all coming out, and his
whole view of relationships it's just very skewed.
Speaker 5 (14:31):
And he could have been the one that he could
be exactly who he says he is, and he could
have had these toxic relationships. He's attracted women to him
that maybe he had from having these let's have all
these women that are for sale parties, and then maybe
he got married to one. Who knows the reason, but
he's definitely jaded, and now he just thinks that And
that's the problem with our society as a whole. You
(14:52):
think that your circumstances dictate what everybody else is going through.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
And just because you experienced something, it doesn't make you
an expert on the right thing. Having some experience doesn't
make you the expert. I'm quite sure he's been with
plenty of women. I don't doubt that at all, But
he's definitely not an expert on connection or relationship or
the merits of marriage. Right, And if I were to
ask him his thoughts on I don't know, twenty different
(15:17):
other subjects, he probably would be on that same level
as in barely coherent.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
My mom's never been married in my lifetime.
Speaker 5 (15:23):
She got married with seventy well, talking to a whole ghost,
I don't know, is Mom the ghost or is he
the ghost?
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Because in his lifetime would seem to mention that he's.
Speaker 5 (15:37):
Dead now right, somebody's gone.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
Oh that much one more time. Mom's never been married
in my lifetime. She got married with seventy.
Speaker 6 (15:47):
It's the confidence for me, like you know, listen, listen.
Speaker 7 (15:52):
So you poor, so you married for that and now
when you get old, somebody that to beat on your
side to take.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Care of you.
Speaker 7 (16:00):
Right now, Mama, I'm married her. Mom've never been married
in my lifetime. She's got married when she was seventy.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Wow. No, not wow.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
It was the wow too, like she just w wasn't
She was probably saying, wow, you are an idiot, right.
Speaker 6 (16:12):
Like who booked you? I can't believe you said.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
That, after saying listen, listen, okay, it's Later with mo Kelly,
can't by AM six forty live everywhere in the iHeartRadio
app and on YouTube.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
Did you know there's no T and sketchers, never has them?
Speaker 7 (16:34):
Maybe what you're talking about romol T is always in sketches,
T and D sketches, slippy ins, T and D sketches,
slip ins.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Pity the fool have to touch his shoes to put
them on.
Speaker 9 (16:45):
T and Z sketches snippy in pity the food bends
down to put on that shoe.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
How pity the pool isn't in sketch of slippery See.
Speaker 9 (16:54):
Romol Ta is always in sketches.
Speaker 10 (16:56):
I'm just saying people off and misspell Sketchers and put
a tea.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
Quit saying it's not okay.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
If I am six forties later with Mo Kelly, We're
live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app and YouTube. And if
you don't know, I love Sketchers. When I get Christmas
gifts or people say, Mo, what do you want for Christmas?
Sketcher's gift card? Don't you want anything else? No Sketcher's
skift card? My what shoes are you wearing right now? Sketchers?
Are you wearing those shoes where you don't have to tie,
(17:21):
you know, bend over to tie your shoes?
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Correct? I just walk into them, just like in that
commercial with Tony Romo and Mister T.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
I was a Sketchers fan back in I will say
the late nineties, before anybody knew about them. And part
of the reason was that Sketchers made shoes which were
wide enough for my foot.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
I have a wide foot. They felt beautiful on my feet.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
I was an early adopter of Sketchers, and then all
of a sudden they started doing commercials, They became popular,
they started having their own outlet sales, and then people say, oh,
I'm Sketchers fan too, don't know. I was one of
the original Sketchers fans. So when I saw this story
about Sketchers going private, I was also while surprised, and
(18:05):
I was concerned. Here's the story, we'll talk about it
on the other side Sketcher Shoes.
Speaker 10 (18:10):
Well, here's another way of dealing with economic uncertainty. Leave
the stock market, and that's what Sketchers is doing. The
company is accepting a buyout offer from a private investment
firm three G Capital, to the tune of about nine
point four billion dollars to go private, which means its
shares will no longer be listed on the Stock exchange
(18:30):
and it will then go forward in that capacity. Sketcher
says that this deal represents what it calls the next chapter.
After three decades in business. Mindful though, Skechers has joined
other shoe companies in seeking an exemption from President Trump's
tariffs because most footwear is in fact manufactured abroad, meaning.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Let's stop there and That's real important because when you
take a company private, I don't know, or if you
actually take it public, if he goes in either direction,
I don't know the company that it was beforehand is
going to be the same afterward.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
I don't know if we'll have the same emphasis.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
I don't know if we'll have the same direction, the
same dedication to the quality of shoe.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Now, when you.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
Also include the possibility of terras, that is going to
impact every shoe company, especially Sketches. Because most shoes of shoes,
especially sports wear, is manufactured outside the United States.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
This is going to impact sketchers.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
I continue to believe the Sketches will be one of
the premier sports where companies. If you don't know about Sketchers,
you're really missing out. But it's not for everyone, but
it's definitely for me. Say, do you have any Sketchers
at home?
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (19:42):
I got two different pairs of the Walkins. Those are
the most comfortable ones I got. And I was surprised
they actually have some pretty nice, you know, like dress shoes.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
They've changed.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Yes, I have like two or three pairs of their
dress shoes. Now, when I thought like Sketches were just
kind of casual sneakers, slip lawns. They weren't really trying
to go any not that they're high end, but they're
passable because I'm at an age where I don't need
that hard wing tip shoe. If I'm wearing a suit,
I will put on some sketches, some nice looking sketches
(20:15):
with a suit in a heartbeat, and nobody will know
the difference.
Speaker 8 (20:18):
Nobody can tell. And those are comfortable, So yeah, I
have no complaints on that. The only thing that I'm
said about is though the one in Burbank closed down,
So anytime I was in a like in crunch and
I needed some shoes, I just run over there, grab
some shoes, and now I gotta I think there's The
one that I went to most recently is up in
Woodland Hills.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
The one you have to go to, and I'm gonna
shout them out because it's the best one.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
It's an outlet store. It's in Torrents.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
I think it's taunts, but it's one ninetieth Street in Vermont.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
It okay, it's a superstore.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
They have all the men's all the women's shoes, and
the sports where it is huge. It's strange because it's
fewer than five miles from Dilomo Mall, where they have
a Diloma Mall store, which is much smaller, doesn't have much,
but if you go to that's outlet on one ninety
eighth in Vermont, you will find just about anything they
have to offer.
Speaker 8 (21:05):
I need to go over there because some of the
ones I like are discontinued.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Yes, yeah, and.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
I look for them online and then I know they'll
have them at that superstore.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
And here's something else.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
If you shop at Sketchers consistently, you will most likely
happen upon a buy two, get one free, and I
go crazy. You get two at the regular price, and
you get third of an equal or lesser price, and
I'll come out with like six pairs of shoes.
Speaker 8 (21:30):
Yeah, And until my kid figured out Jordan's, I went
and got them those two for one Sketchers and it
made a huge difference. Nowadays, he's like, I want Jordans. Yeah,
what are Jordans going for? Like three fifty or something.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
I don't look at the price, Okay, I just get depressed.
Every time I've had two pairs of Jordans in my life.
Both of them were under one hundred dollars, one because
I'm outlet shopping, and two I could write them off.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Because I'm working as a sports referee.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
So I can buy them and justifiably buy them, but
I can't spend three hundred dollars in the shoe, which
comes back to Sketchers, where I know everything we want
to buy from Sketches is about seventy five dollars or fewer.
That's about it. That's about it. And not only do
they look nice, they're super comfortable.
Speaker 8 (22:13):
I like predictable, you know, decent quality shoes, and those
are solid.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
You can't you can't go wrong, can't beat them. But
this goes back to the story.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
This concerns me because whenever you have a merger or acquisition,
whoever owns it is going to take it in a
different direction.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
And I don't know what that's going to look like.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
I don't know what that pun intended is going to
feel like, and I don't know if I'll still have
the same affinity for the companies I did before. I
feel like I was one of the early adopters and
I had the benefit of being in love with Sketchers
for a decade before anyone else ever even figured out
about them, and now it might all go away.
Speaker 8 (22:52):
Yeah, well we'll see. Well, hopefully they at least keep
the same quality of shoes that we enjoy. But yeah,
if they're going to be going in this kind of direction,
you have to expect there to be some kind of
business model shift.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
And I know who moved my cheese. Nobody likes change.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty CAFI.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
It's Later with Mo Kelly. We're live everywhere, the iHeartRadio
app and YouTube. And since we have some cat lovers
in the crew tonight, it's only appropriate that we talk
about the cat breed, which corresponds with your zodiac sign.
And there's been some shout outs for Eileen Gonzales. They say,
why isn't Eileen on camera? Because Eileen doesn't want to
(23:35):
be distracted by the camera.
Speaker 6 (23:37):
Oh, I don't mind.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
Okay, then we'll Praven.
Speaker 6 (23:39):
War makeup today.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
Yeah, no, biggie, Okay, Daniel, you heard that, you know? Okay?
All right, we thought we were protecting you. I guess not.
Speaker 6 (23:49):
I did twenty years of TV. I'm used to it,
all right.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
There make us all look like liars.
Speaker 6 (23:56):
Somebody didn't want me on here.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
I just kidding, Aries, t Well, I'm not saying this
on air. Yes, no, I'm not.
Speaker 9 (24:03):
That is a very popular cat. It may be, and
it is okay to say.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Okay, we're gonna say it, and we're gonna brush by
it and keep on moving. Yes, Aries, your cat for
your zodiac sign is a main coon. Yes, and we'll
go right on past that. It's a beautiful cats. If
those cats are giant, I don't they're damn. I don't
give a damn. Taurus, you're a rag doll? Is there
a cat breed that captures your serenity Taurus? As an
(24:31):
easy going Earth sign, you're not about the drama and fussiness.
Neither is the rag doll, which is a breed beloved
for its calm temperament. Rag Dolls are named as such
because these cute kiddies tend to go limp when they're okay.
Speaker 9 (24:44):
They they go lit when they're picked up and cuddled.
How't died you choose a further explain, But that's what
the cats do. They're and oh man.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Your corresponding cat with your zodiac sign is Siamese.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Are you allowed to say that anymore. Yes, that's the
name of the cat.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Okay gee, I look, you know, in this politically correct environment,
we have to make sure.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Name of the cat.
Speaker 9 (25:05):
It is no longer about trying to demean a continent
or a people or anything.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
So I can't call it a handicap, noboddy, nothing, nothing.
Speaker 9 (25:18):
Come on, Sam laughed at it.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Which cat breed for? Gemini?
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Exudire intelligence and mischievousness and chattiness, Gemini the Siamese. Not
only is the Siamese beloved for its unique coloring, but
it's also one of the smartest, most vocal cat breeds.
Siamese are curious felines who love getting into all types
of trouble. You know, the Siamese is meant for you,
since the kidie needs to be preoccupied and entertained at
all times. If you're looking for a mere, curial companion,
(25:47):
consider inviting a Siamese into your life. Cancer, you are
a Scottish Fold.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
Yes, I love those cats.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Given that you're an impath, you cannot be paired with
a picky cat. Cancer, You may feel strongly connected to
the Scottish Fold because this kitty exemplifies your loving, affectionate nature.
Scottish folds are known to bond with everyone in their lives,
so you can be rest assured that this kitty will
undoubtedly love you as much as you love them. Aside
from the Scottish fold's familial energy, you may fall for
(26:16):
this kitty's distinct yet darling folded ears. Lego, you're an
Egyptian maw Leo, you ought to be paired with the
cat breed who exemplifies your regality. Of all the cat breeds,
the Egyptian male shares your dignified, expressive energy. Egyptian moles

Speaker 6 (26:50):
Silver tabby.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
Okay, all right, it's a regular cat. Though it's a
silver Tabby's beautiful.
Speaker 6 (26:55):
Can you see them?
Speaker 2 (26:55):
They're all regular to me. Now we have to get
a ki hammer shot of her. Actually, Daniel, get eleens folk.
Speaker 6 (27:06):
This is my cat's.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
If my cat had a tender profile, this would be
his picture.

We gotta get that on air somehow, So Daniel, get
Eileen's phone so we can get this on the air
on our YouTube stream. Virgo, you're a Russian Blue. As
a quick, nervous mercurial sign. You may feel strongly connected
to all kinds of kitties. However, the Russian Blue exudes
your bright, yet shy nature.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
Virgo.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
You may be initially drawn to this kitty for its
bluish coat, curious eyes, and per tears, but as you
get to know the timid Russian Blue, you may feel
more connected to this kitty's folklore. According to Russian folklore,
Russian blues are associated with healing abilities. Call upon the
Russian Blue when you require peace, need a quick solution,
or want to focus on healing. Libra, You're a Himalayan.
(27:51):
Every kitty is gorgeous in its own way. I don't

Speaker 9 (27:56):
All these cats are grg You're just running by these
because you hate them?

Sleeper.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
Secretarious, Bombay, Secretarius, that's me.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
I'm a savannah cat. My ideal cat is wilder than
the average house cat, like a lion or tiger. Although
you may resonate with these big cats, you will also
align with the domesticated savannah cat. The special cat breed
is a high between the wild, servile and domestic breeds,
giving you the best of both worlds. You will fall
in love with the cat's exotic loots, exotic looks, and
(29:08):
dog like personality.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
Look at don't you ever doubt this will? I will
never be a cat owner. Okay, and dog like qualities okay,
if I want dog.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
If I want dog like qualities and just get a dog,
oh wow, I have to look at that.
Speaker 6 (29:25):
Lets work. They're immediately body trained. You just put litter
box out. They know what to do.

Oh that's right, I got one. That's true. She does
not listen. Capricorn, your cat is a Persian. Let's hurry
up to this. As a Saturnian star sign, you may
feel highly connected to all cat breeds. Capricorn, every kid.
(29:50):
He speaks to your soul. But you're tried and true.
Feline counterpart is none other than the Persian cat. And Aquarius.
You're a Havana brown being the rarest zodiac sign suggest
you should be paired with an equally unique feline. Aquarius,
look no further since you will fall for the Havana
brown cat. The solid brown kitty is extremely rare and
highly sought after, just like you and Pisces. You're a
(30:13):
cell kirk Rex. I don't know what the hell that is.
There's a picture of it right there. I know what
the picture looks like. I'm just saying I don't know
what the cat is. I don't know what a sell
Kirk is or what's a by kirk. Was it like
a Tyrannosaurus rex. While you may see yourself in many
delightful cat breeds, you will ultimately resonate with the cell
kirk Rex pisces. How could you resist this curly haired
kitty easily? Sell kirk Rexes are specifically bred for their
(30:36):
curly coats, giving them an irresistible appearance, and that is
your heart.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
I don't go fill with so much hate because I
don't like cats.
