Speaker 1 (00:22):
He tried to kill me. I'm telling you he tried
to kill me. He tried to first run me down
with his car, and then when that wasn't successful, he
then proceeded to honk his horn and give me the runner.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
I don't know who you could be talking about.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
It's later with mot Kelly k I am six forty
life everywhere on YouTube, Instagram and the iHeartRadio app and
even Facebook. It's interesting that you would chime in, Mark Ronner.
Maybe you have a guilty conscience, but you tried to.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Run me down in the crosswalk.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
I was walking back from Whole Foods, mind my own business,
and I was mindful of the I was walking on
the green crosswalk walk sidhe and you're saying you were
obeying the law.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
I was obeying the law. And then you come in
this car screeching to a halt, fakens the limit line.
Fake fake news.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
You know when the car dips down on the front
because you're slamming on the brakes.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
It's almost like.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
You were because you had an internal conversation about do
I run this black man down or not.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
It's like you could read my mind.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
I want somebody to go out and look for skid
marks on the road, not on any of your clothing.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Oh, I know. This car was barreling down on me. Yeah,
And I turned to the right and I said, I'm
not gonna make it.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
So he skids to the limit line and I throw
my hands.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Up, like, what are you doing, dude? What's your problem?
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Please don't, please don't.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
And then he honks the horn and I started looking
in through his windshield. I realized it's freaking Mark Ronner.
And he gives me our runner, like I did something wrong.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Here's what I love. One of my favorite things in
life is that moment between hey and oh.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
I actually leaned into his passenger side, saying, who the
frick is this?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Because the window is down. It's like I was a
good right to reach in and snatches ass. Yeah, that's
exactly what you were about to do.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
I was prepared for that. It's like the old Sid
Caesar joke. Do you remember birth? You're coming out of
the window like that. All right, So do you want
to explain yourself mister Ronner? Well, I just you seemed
lost in your own world, probably thinking about something important
that you were going to talk about tonight and enlighten
everybody about either that or just porn. But anyway, you
(02:37):
were lost in your own will crossing the street. I
gave you a little two to the horn. You didn't
immediately recognize me, so I took the opportunity to surprise
you with a middle finger. And then it took you
like a fraction of a second before you recognize me.
And as I mentioned to you on the way in,
it's that fraction of a second that I live for.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
It's just beautiful like you like, hey, hey, who oh,
he left out a very important part. No you try
to kill me?
Speaker 3 (03:04):
No, no, no, no, no more fake news on your part.
How can you disseminate that kind of disinformation on the
people's airwaves like that.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
I'm offended even you can't even tell that with a
straight face.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
No, I said you should thank me. Where's the gratitude?
Thank you for not running me down, for keeping you
alert when you were Were you looking at your phone?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
No, I actually wasn't.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
I do not look at my phone across the street
because I had been hit by car.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
As a pedestrian. I'm always aware of cars, okay.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Because sometimes if people are doing that and I'm waiting
to turn a corner. I'll roll down the window and say,
look up from your phone, you idiot. No, no, no, you
weren't doing that.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
No no, I had my food in the bag in
my right hand, and I'm walking with intent across the street. Now,
I don't know if you were paying attention, but when
I was walking across the street, there was someone coming
out of the garage and he jumped the light because
he didn't want to wait for the cross traffic. Oh,
if you come out of our parking garage, you can
go straight and go right and go left, but usually
(04:04):
the light for the pedestrian turns green first. So I
start walking, and as soon as I start walking, this
guy coming out of the garage jumps the red light
because his light has not turned green yet, because he
did not want to wait for any of the cars,
which might have kept him from turning left.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Probably had someplace important to go, probably in labor, something
that we don't understand. So we should extend the benefit
of the doubt. But I'll tell you you weren't as
surprised as I had hope, because I like it when
people are so surprised they do the little surprise dance.
No no, no, Tawala knows this about me, You'll learn
this about me.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
I look for confrontation. Oh I see, So if someone's
hawking their horn, I'm just turn of like, who the
mother father are you? So you're like Jack Reacher, You're
just like waiting for something to go and walking across
the street.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I'm in the crosswalk, I have the light, and here
you are screeching to a halt and you hank the
orn' it me.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I wish you'd had like a milkshake or something and
you were mid drinking.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I did not flinch, I did not jump. I didn't
throw out my hands like, oh my gosh, you scared me. No,
because I'm always aware, especially when it goes to crossing
the street, because I like you notice when people are
on the phone and they just assume that cars will
stop for them. They just step off the curb thinking that, well,
I got the light, so there's nothing for me to
(05:24):
worry about, having this visible barrier around me, nothing can
touch me. It's crazy because especially when people are stepping
off the curb, invariably there's someone who's going to make
that right on a red and not really expecting someone
to step off the curb and you get a lot
of these side swipes, or you almost get your your
leg taken off because people are not paying attention, either
(05:45):
because they're on their phone, or someone is turning right
but looking left for the oncoming traffic.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
So you're saying that, like in Ninja, you were aware
of all your surroundings and nothing could surprise you. And
I'm taking this. Why do see mischaracter everything? I say, no, no, no,
I'm just trying to read between the lines.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I'm taking. Well, you're illiterate there, Yeah, you're making it up.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
You just got done spewing a huge mouthful of fake news.
And I won't take this from you. This is a
personal challenge. I'm gonna interpret this like Cato in the
old Pink Panther movies.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
So just whenever you're not ready, be ready. You admit
that you instigated this.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Oh, I'm proud that I instigated it.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I intend to instigate more.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Okay, Sam, I hope you got that on tape so
we we know he won't be able to lie about
it later.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Twala, you heard it right, I heard it. This is
for court later. You instigate it, so's your intent is clear?
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Mind, there's bad faith there's murder in your voice, bad
faith interaction. Not so much murder as just maybe some
mild incontinence. You were unsuccessful, Okay, so now what, Well,
there's always next time. And I tell you this, if
you did it to Tuala, his response might have been
a little more aggressively. I kicked bumpers. I wouldn't have
(07:06):
kicked your bumper. I would have kicked your fender. Because
you kicked the bumper. That means you're standing in front
of the car. You keep the side of the Yeah,
that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Yeah, the Pamela, Yeah boom, just like get that thing,
like Steve McQueen would have done.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
You guys are cool. Yeah, and especially if we actually
didn't know each other, what are you going to do?
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Get out of your car and chase me into a
building you can't get into.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Oh no, you never get out of the car. Never
get out of the car.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
So I would have taken advantage of that, Like you
never know if someone gets out the car.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
It's it's one of those things.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
You can see someone frantically trying to put their car
in part and trying to dislodge. I can promise you this,
I'd say at least seven times out of ten, it
is faster for me to get back around to your
car to kick your door in as you try to
open it. Oh, you try to open it and get
out head first. Pow, your head is getting there. There's
(08:02):
only one way you can get out of the car,
So I know which way you're know which way you're coming.
I know what you're about to do.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
One of my favorite genres of online video is people
who are in a road rage and they get out
of their car and then the other guy gets out
of the car and is twice their size, and they're like,
oh my bad, I'm sorry. I'll be getting back in
my car now. No.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I try not to do that stuff anymore.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
I try, but every once in a while someone tries
to run me down as I'm walking away from Whole Foods,
and then all of a sudden, I snap back to
where I used to be when I was thirty something.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Are you back into the whole youth? I was mine
in my own business and you want to start something.
We almost had a misunderstanding.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Almost, boy, think of my good fortune and not and
I'm making you angry.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Like the Hulk. See See he's asking for Sam, see
what I'll say. Good evening to Sam. Good evening to Daniel.
Good evening to Wala Mark. Don't take their side, Sam,
Good evening.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
When we come back, we're going to talk about the
LAUSD plans for new bus routes and safer zones. KFIM
six forty WeLive everywhere the iHeart Radio App. Good evening
to you out there listening on iHeartRadio App. Good evening
to everyone except Mark Ronald.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
I AM six forty. It's Later with Mo Kelly.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
We're live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and the iHeartRadio App.
And this is an unusual time for America, and this
is an uncertain time here in America. And now as
students are going back to school, we talked about it
last week, but in earnest over the next few weeks,
just about everyone we'll be back in school. This will
(09:44):
be the first time that kids will be in school
dealing with these immigration raids and these unconventional tactics which
are being used by Ice as far as popping out
of a van in front of a home depot or
showing up at a church or showing up at a
s and different school districts are having to deal with
this in different ways. LAUSD they made it clear at
(10:08):
least as of yesterday, LA Mayor Karen Bass and also
USD Superintendent Corvallo said that they will be implementing new
bus routes and safe zones, as they say, to keep
students safe from immigration raids. And although we may not
know the status of someone's citizenship, whether they're undocumented, you
(10:30):
don't know just by looking at them. You know that
some people may be undocumented, and it may not be
the child, it may be the parent, it may be
the grandparent. And when it comes to taking kids to
school or making sure that they're safe in an academic environment,
there's a lot of uncertainty there. I'll just tell you
what it is for me and my environment when I'm
(10:51):
teaching Hopkito, which is not like school in the traditional sense,
but we're dealing with a lot of kids, many of them,
I would say the larger percentage of them are Latino.
We have been down in attendance because students are either
unsure of coming or the people who may bring them
the class should be there. Be it their parents or
(11:12):
their grandparents. They may be undocumented. Sometimes they are and
they're unsure of what's going to happen in a raid sense.
And we in my Doujon have had internal discussions as
far as how we would handle it if in fact
there were an immigration raid, and more and more businesses
have to have these conversations. Schools have to have these conversations.
(11:37):
I'm quite sure to Waal, as an administrator of a school,
he has to have these conversations. And I'm not saying
there's one right way to do it. We know that
there's a lot of controversy surrounding the city's stance as
being a sanctuary city, which means that local officials, local
PD Sheriff's department, they're not going to directly help or
(12:00):
aid in the administration of ICE raids or looking for
undocumented individuals.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
But this is going to be something which is going.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
To cause a lot of issues for the foreseeable future,
because as kids go back to school, as kids need
that ride to.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
School or home from school.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Or get on the bus, and as ICE continues in
their unconventional methods of trying to meet their quota of
three thousand arrests per day. This is going to wreak havoc,
most likely on school campuses or around school campuses. Think
about any given day, you can go to just about
any school in LAUSD, show up at around three o'clock
(12:49):
and you will see lines of cars of parents waiting
to pick up their children. Now, think about that same
scenario which is going to go on at any school
in LAUSD about maybe two point thirty three o'clock with
an ice raid attached. Not only are you putting children
(13:10):
in danger. Depending on how it pans out, you could
have an absolute you could have a loss of control
of the situation. Let me put it that way very
very quickly. And schools have to plan for this in advance.
I'm not saying that there's a right way or a wrong.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Way to do it.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I'm saying that schools are planning in advance. In LAUSD,
being the second largest school district in the country, is
prepared for this or at least prepared for the possibility.
And this is what Superintended Carvallo had to say. Quote,
we have rerouted a number of our bus routes. We
have added additional bus routes to ensure that we have
(13:51):
transportation for all we are appealing to our community. Parents,
if you are afraid of being on the street with
your child, more than likely can't accommodate a specific bus
route for your child. And this also goes back to
what we were told originally about what ICE was going
to do and how they were going to go about it.
(14:13):
My issue has always been methods and tactics. I don't
think that there is an argument you can make as
to the legality of being undocumented in America. The law
is the law, but also the punishment and the enforcement
of the law. The methods and tactics do matter in
(14:34):
the way that being undocumented. I've said it before and
I think it bears repeating, in the way that being
undocumented in and of itself is not a misdemeanor.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
It's a violation. It's a citation.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
And the way that speeding is, in the way that
loitering is and the way that littering is, just being
undocumented is just a citation, and in the way that
we would not ever think of enforce seeing a speeding
violation in this way, in the way that we would
never think of enforcing littering or loitering in the way
(15:08):
that ICE does. Yes, it may be quote unquote against
the law, but we also have to be mindful of
how we enforce the law, and in this case, we
have to be mindful of how we enforce the law
and the unintended consequences when it has to do with children.
I question, I openly question, whether we are creating a
(15:30):
safe environment given how these raids are being conducted. Just
because something is against the law, it doesn't in any
way justify or validate any and all means. And you
can also connect this to what is now happening in Washington,
d C. With the federalization of the DC Police and
(15:52):
the use of Secret Service and FBI, the National Park
Service and DEA. If I'm not mistaken to as in
general law enforcement duties, this is not about safety. This,
I should say, how it's going about it right now
is not about safety. I think it's making it more
unsafe here in LA for children and families to meet
(16:16):
a quota. But I know that not everyone agrees with that,
and I know that this is just going to happen
as the President has said, it is going to happen
and will continue to happen. My greatest concern is someone
gets hurt unnecessarily, a child gets hurt in the administration
(16:36):
of some of these raids, or families are separated in
the administration of these raids. There is a way that
we can enforce the law with some degree of empathy
and some sort of parameter and outer boundary as far
as what we will and will not do. And going
back to the story, Lausd is planning for these eventualities
(17:00):
in the way that we've seen these raids just about everywhere,
be it a public place or a private storefront, or
a school or outside a church. We have to assume
that this is going to be the norm for the
foreseeable future, for at least the next few weeks and months,
and schools are going to have to be prepared, and
(17:21):
Lausd is saying we're at least preparing in the sense
of having extra bus routes and also more buses to
accommodate kids so they're not standing outside and being targets,
if you will, for immigration raids, or being used as
some sort of lure for an immigration raid, and parents
(17:42):
being reticent to even pick up their kids or send
their kids to school because of these raids.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
It's later with Mokeli KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
We're live everywhere the iHeartRadio app and social media, and
when we come back, I got to tell you about
Burbank's first dog park. It's almost finish, it's almost near
final approval, and we'll tell you about that next. You know,
I love my dogs. I mean, I can't see that
out about Mark. I'll be nice, I'll be nice. You
(18:11):
had to find some way to bring me into it.
I was impressive.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
I have to, if only because you tried to kill me.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Or No, that was a nice little stretch you did there.
I appreciate now even I have limitations. Nice work.
Speaker 5 (18:21):
You're listening to later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
KFI. Mister bo Kelly, I'm actually surprised that Burbank, which
is a dog friendly community, did not have its own
dog park. And I worked in around Burbank for I
don't know how many years, for decades, and I never
really thought of it until more recently. I saw more
and more stories about this. But after decades, and it's
(19:01):
taken decades of people living in Burbank requesting this, Burbank's
first dog park is in its final stages.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Of approval.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
It's going to cost like some two point four million
dollars and it's done in conjunction with the Los Angeles
Department of Water and Power. The Dick Clark Dog Park,
as it will be called, will feature a statue of Crypto,
Superman's dog. Well not actually Superman's dog. Well, it depends
on the story. You know, in some stories a Superman's
(19:34):
dog and other stories as Supergirls dog. You can just
get around it by saying Crypto the superdog. That's how
it is. In the comics. You're well, you're welcome. But
people may have most recently seen the Superman movie, and
in that Superman movie it was Supergirl's dog. I'm just
trying to help mom. No, please, don't you try to
kill me earlier. You can't help. You survived, Yeah, everybody wins.
(19:57):
It's almost like shooting at someone is like, well I missed,
so it's okay.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Yeah, the age old question to stop any argument. Did
you die? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I didn't die. Okay, so
case closed.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
See, but since we went there, The Crypto statue will
be prominently displayed at the park's entrance, joining wonder Woman, Batman,
Green Lantern statues, which are already there, and it's supposed
to celebrate the city's entertainment industry. Heritage and Crypto will
be right down front, and the dog park will be
at the intersection of Riverside Drive and Bob Hope Drive.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Oh so it's right right around the.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Corner, literally right around the cornery.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
We exit out out the.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Parking Yeah, right, yeah, wow, once completed, And I've actually
driven by it a bunch of times. I just didn't
know that that was going to be the dog park.
If you get off the the one thirty four, the
one before right before it, right before Hollywood Way, Buenavista, Okay.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Okay, so it's the one that's right here.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Yeah, get off of Buena Vista, make a left coming
off the one thirty four.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
East.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
Yes, yeah, and then you start driving it. You come
up to I'll say, the backside of iHeart. They have
this big open green area on the right, so I
know exactly where it's gonna be.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Once completed, the dog park will include twenty five parking
spaces and separate areas for large and small dogs with
doublegate entry systems. That's kind of standard dog agility equipment,
including ramps and tunnels, seventy trees, nineteen park benches and
picnic tables, shade structures, a central plaza with permeable pavers,
(21:45):
drinking fountains and dog water stations.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
Kind of standard.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
But here is something that's really interesting if you are
a dog lover dog owner. Instead of grass, the park
will use a specialized surface blend of seventy percent sand
and thirty percent pea gravel. I personally they call it
the dog park blend. I personally prefer the grass or
the grass astro turf like substance, whatever they use. I
(22:12):
usually take Riley and Benson to the Redondo Beach Dog Park.
But the only thing I don't like it it's all dirt.
Two big areas and plenty places for the dogs run.
It's very spacious, it's huge, but it's all dirt, which
means each time we go, I got to give them
a bath as soon as we get home because they're
tracking dirt everywhere. And you know, it's a great place
(22:35):
for dogs, but I that's a drawback. So when they
say that they put it down like a sand and gravel,
it's like, I'd rather have the the grassy like substance.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
It might just be harder to clean that. Oh no,
it probably is that.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
You know, it's not for our convenience, it's for their
convenience as far as maintenance. Just for me, I would
rather have it like in my you've been in my backyard,
we have a a synthetic turf which is specifically for
dogs and pets where they can do their business. It
seeps through you just run over with like a hose
(23:10):
and it doesn't really hold any odor or anything. So
they have a synthetic blend specifically four pets they could
have used.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
They're just not using it here. I like the idea
of it. Oh yeah, idea of it.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
And oh you know, I know exactly what you talking
about back here when you get out the freeway.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Correct, yes, you're back here ol on this side.
Speaker 4 (23:33):
Okay, yeah, no, I passed by that, And I've seen
people just out there walking dust, and a couple of
times I've seen people out there doing tai chi.
Speaker 5 (23:39):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Yeah, that area.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
Okay, it's like oblong, it's it's weird shape, so you
can't really do anything with it. It's perfect for a
dog park, you know, people out there playing flag football
and stuff, doing stuff out there, and for the while
they had this big border up and said what are
they going to do with it? And it's been for
a for a year, a few years, and then I realized, oh, okay,
that's where the dog park it's gonna be. And yeah,
(24:02):
I would like to take Benson and Riley to it
when it's completed. I just I just need someone to
just watch over them, like, you know, I could maybe
send Mark out there to just watch the dogs for
a while. I'll pay them, but you know, I gotta
do the show. I don't think you can afford me. Mom,
that's what she said. Ah, Sam, I could have swore
(24:23):
there was a dog park already in Burbank. I would
have thought the same thing too, But no, apparently the
one that I've been to is must be in Glendale.
Most magically, the border into Glendale, I could have swore
that was in Burbank.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
Maybe Glendale doesn't take much to get to Glendale.
Speaker 6 (24:39):
No, hopscotch across the little tiny invisible line.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Apparently, Yeah, not in Burbank.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
And I ask you, as a fellow dog lover, is
there a particular dog park that you usually take Marley.
Speaker 6 (24:55):
There's one in North Hollywood that I typically go to,
but also that one that was talking about Lendale. It's
just I believe south of the one thirty four when
you exit the one thirty four freeway. I could have
swore it was in Burbank, but it's just barely in
the Glendale side.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Apparently was off the one thirty four, off the one
thirty four.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
I'm trying to think, is that like by Pickwick Bowl
in that area close by there, close by there, just
further up the road at if you go further up riverside,
I think you'll get to it. Okay, Yeah, then maybe
we gotta do like a dog date anyhow, Absolutely, bring
the boys. You know, I would bring him to the office,
but Riley is an a hole and I can't trust
(25:35):
him unattended for any significant amount of time.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
What's he do?
Speaker 1 (25:40):
He would probably chew up something. And he's he barks incessantly.
He barks at people walking away across the street. He
barks at the ups man, he barks when he hears people.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Walking in front of the house. He's he's just like
right right right round, I hate you, Please go away,
please go away, right right right. He's an a hole.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
And when I take him out on a walk he's
determined to challenge every dog three times his size.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Just let him do a segment on your show. See
what people say.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
But he might ronate on the on the desk. Okay, he'll, he'll,
he'll bark into the mic. I can get him to
bark into the mic. It's just, you know, it's just unsanitary,
the urination.
Speaker 6 (26:19):
See, I can't confirm nor deny the fact that I
have Marley with me. I can't confirm nor deny that
dog is like the nicest, sweetest dog in the universe.
Speaker 2 (26:30):
Yes, yes, that is true. I have brought.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Benson here, but this was years ago when I was
doing the Mo Kelly Show and I had an office
and I could put him in there for a while
and I didn't have to worry about him running around.
And he's perfect. He's not going to have an accident anywhere.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
He just doesn't.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
He knows the difference between inside and outside. If he
sees grass that's outside, he knows he can do whatever.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Based on what you've told us about the men's room here,
it sounds like he's better trained than some of our employees.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
No doubt, no exaggerations. Seriously, that's a very low bar. Though, Mark,
it's a very low bar because people urinate on the
floor and they're routinely and intentionally.
Speaker 4 (27:10):
It's glistening around the floor of the taller urinal right.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
Now, glistening, a golden glistening. That's great, that's nice. I
mean it's almost like they went in closed their eyes
and started spinning in a three sixty circle, just spraying.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
It just makes me so proud.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Anyhow, I've never brought Riley up here. I don't know
if he can handle it. I mean, he wouldn't be
any worse, but I don't know if our program director
would appreciate hearing the dog barking in the background during segments.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
That's my only concern.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Now, Mark barking, that's okay, but not Riley slightly deeper
bark no bite though, Wait and see.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Look, you tried to kill me earlier. Okay, it's back
then you're sitting here, tell about it. I quit complain that.
Start counting your good fortune. I am six forty live
everywhere in the iHeartRadio app. When we come back, we
have to talk about how California and shooting stars. Where's
the best state in the Union to see a shooting star?
(28:16):
It's California and top ten. We'll find out in just
a moment.
Speaker 5 (28:19):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
With We're Live Everywhere, the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
We're still live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook as well if
you want to see the video simulcast of the show.
And I don't know how often you may see a
shooting star. You don't see them all that often, but
it depends on where you are. You know, where are
you in the state of California, Where are you around
the United States. If you are in the city of
(29:01):
Los Angeles in a very urban area because of light pollution,
and you may not see all that many shooting stars.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
I don't see that many in the city.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
But when I'm when I was younger and I was
going out to Joshua Tree or doing stuff with four
age and you're getting outside the city limits and you
get to see all the stars, whatever's happening in the sky,
then I would see more shooting stars. But I always
wondered whether California was conducive all in all, top to
(29:33):
bottom to see a shooting star. According to the Action Network,
they have the listed they have listed the top ten
states in the nation to glimpse a meteor or asteroid
as of twenty twenty five, and with how likely you
are to see one. Sam, do you remember the last
(29:53):
time or anytime that you saw a shooting star in California?
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (29:58):
Yeah, occasionally. I mean you got to be in this
that has a not so much light pollution. But you know,
if you hear that there's like one of those you know, asteroid.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Belts coming per see. Yeah, something.
Speaker 6 (30:09):
If you're going to be passing through someplace where you're
gonna be seeing a bunch of asteroids, just look up.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
You might catch a few. Mark.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
Do you see them in California? Or did you see
them in the state of Washington? Only if I watched
them on television. I have to admit I have been
an astronomy fan my whole life, but never one to
just hang out outdoors and look at the skies. I
think I've seen maybe three or four of my life, Tula,
what about you? I actually won clear night in Altadena.
(30:36):
When I got there, all the street lights were like off,
and I was got out my car and I was
taking just the pictures of the sky and I shot
a video because it was just such a peaceful, clear
night and a shooting star just shot across like count
and I was like, ah, I can't believe I caught
that because I wasn't there for shooting stars. I was like,
just take a video of the night sky. The Altaden
is very dark. So yeah, yeah, you're high up, there's
(30:59):
enough elevation. Well, here we go Top ten states for
spotting a shooting star.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Coming in at number ten Michigan with a two point
eight one percent chance. I don't know quantitatively how they
measure a two point eight one percent chance of seeing
a shooting star, but we'll take it.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
Comeing in number nine.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
The state of Idaho two point eight five percent chance
of seeing a shooting star.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
Number eight.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Alaska two point nine to four percent chance. I would
have thought Alaska would be a lower chance, if only
because you got some six months of light or whatever.
You would have less amount of darkness over a large
portion of the year. You're probably not going to see
as many shooting stars, and you've got the northern lights
going on. That's prove of a distraction right there.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
True.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
Yeah, there are a lot of things competing with what
would be a shooting star. Coming in number seven, Nevada
three point one seven percent chance. Yeah, that makes sense.
You're in the desert. There's probably not a lot of
things competing in the night sky. Yeah that makes sense.
(32:28):
Number six the same Arizona three point five zero percent
chance of seeing a shooting star or in other words,
an asteroid coming into the atmosphere. Number five of the
top ten states of spotting a shooting star, New Mexico
(32:56):
three point eight one percent chance. I'm getting a sense
of either the Midwest or the Southwest are some of
the best spots.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
Coming in at number four of the top.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Ten states for seeing a shooting star, Utah four point
two one percent chance. Not that I ever want to
go to Utah. Anyone here ever been to Utah. I
haven't been in Utah. Nothing in it for me. I
have not No, I don't plan it long. I don't
(33:28):
plan on going to Utah. I don't plan on going
to Idaho. I'm not going to West Virginia. There's just
some I'm not going to Mississippi. There's just some states.
There's nothing in.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
It for me.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
I don't think you'd like Idaho. I don't think i'd
like Idaho. I don't think I would like Mississippi. There's
certain states. It's just nothing for me, West Virginia. It's like,
what would I be going there for? Am I driving through? Possibly?
Speaker 2 (33:50):
But am I going there?
Speaker 1 (33:53):
No?
Speaker 2 (33:53):
Not at all. Coming in number.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
Three organ four point four zero percent chance of seeing
a shooting star.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
Coming in at number two.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
Colorado four point forty five percent chance of seeing a
shooting star. So number one. Okay, you got Orgon, you
got Utah, New Mexico, Arizona. I'm thinking something in the
in the southwest portion of the country. Sam, you got
any guesses who's number one?
Speaker 6 (34:38):
I can't even I'm still kind of confessed. I mean,
does this just mean the percentage of people who are
willing to look up? Because I'm assuming that you can
see a shooting star anywhere?
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Well, it depends because if you're like near downtown La,
no chance in hell, No chance in hell.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Yeah. So yeah, I mean you have to be looking up.
There has to be.
Speaker 1 (35:01):
A minimum amount of light pollution, and you have to
be looking up at the right time.
Speaker 6 (35:06):
I mean, I mean Kansas, Kansas might be a good
those flat land places as no mountains. Yeah, maybe, like
you know, unless there's like weather going on or something
so they can't see it through the clouds.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
But I don't know.
Speaker 6 (35:18):
That's how do you quantify that percentage of people who
will look up at the right moment?
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, I'm thinking that might have a shot
at being number one. Mark any guesses Washington hasn't been
listed yet, Nevada area fifty one, all that stuff, Well,
Nevada's number seven. I wasn't listening, I know, come join
the program. My goodness, first you try to kill me.
Now you're trying to kill the show.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
I had important journalism work to do here in the
KFI twenty four hour newsroom, so I forget.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
So please coming in at number one.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
As far as the top state in the nation for
spotting a shooting star, I think this just has to
do with land mass over the totality of the state
(36:15):
California six point sixty eight percent chance of seeing a
shooting star. I guess if you include Redwood and Lodie
and San Jose and Bakersfield, you know, in River Tucky
and legal cannabis.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
Yeah, people who are really high and just looking up.
Speaker 4 (36:35):
Well, also there is the what is it is the
per sed proceed proceed media Shah Perceed.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
Hey, Mark, what is it? You're perceed? Perceed?
Speaker 4 (36:46):
It's the Perseeded, It's the Pifonk, the media, Percy Young Perk.
It's coming back into the skies, the night skies, and
that means that you might want to be in.
Speaker 2 (37:00):
I'll leave to see it. Will we see it? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (37:03):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, No, I don't know. I haven't tracked
the path, Mark, I know what's in the news. Have
they said where it's going to be most visible? I
ran across an item yesterday.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
Let me do it quick, sir.
Speaker 1 (37:15):
That's the problem. I mean, I think it's relevant to
the show. We'll wait, just like you waited for me
across the street. No need to be rude. I'm just petty.
I'm small like that.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
Percyed Meteor Shower to peak this week, one of the
most impressive celestial shows of the years, reaching its peak
this week. The Percied Meteor Shower has had lights streaking
across the sky since last month, ramping up to Tuesday
night and early Wednesday morning, where sixty or more meteors
can shoot by in an hour. Does that satisfy you
most sixty? No, it doesn't tell us where viewing is
best in rural areas in the hours before dawn, but
(37:46):
the shooting stars can be seen anytime after dark.
Speaker 1 (37:48):
And we don't have a location, all right, so just
be rural. You just look up, okay, all right, sounds good,
Okay if I am since forty alive, everyone in our
heart ready
Speaker 5 (37:57):
At Hey and kost HD two, Los Angeles, Orange County
more stimulating,
He tried to kill me. I'm telling you he tried
to kill me. He tried to first run me down
with his car, and then when that wasn't successful, he
then proceeded to honk his horn and give me the runner.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
I don't know who you could be talking about.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
It's later with mot Kelly k I am six forty
life everywhere on YouTube, Instagram and the iHeartRadio app and
even Facebook. It's interesting that you would chime in, Mark Ronner.
Maybe you have a guilty conscience, but you tried to.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Run me down in the crosswalk.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
I was walking back from Whole Foods, mind my own business,
and I was mindful of the I was walking on
the green crosswalk walk sidhe and you're saying you were
obeying the law.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
I was obeying the law. And then you come in
this car screeching to a halt, fakens the limit line.
Fake fake news.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
You know when the car dips down on the front
because you're slamming on the brakes.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
It's almost like.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
You were because you had an internal conversation about do
I run this black man down or not.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
It's like you could read my mind.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
I want somebody to go out and look for skid
marks on the road, not on any of your clothing.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Oh, I know. This car was barreling down on me. Yeah,
And I turned to the right and I said, I'm
not gonna make it.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
So he skids to the limit line and I throw
my hands.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Up, like, what are you doing, dude? What's your problem?
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Please don't, please don't.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
And then he honks the horn and I started looking
in through his windshield. I realized it's freaking Mark Ronner.
And he gives me our runner, like I did something wrong.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Here's what I love. One of my favorite things in
life is that moment between hey and oh.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
I actually leaned into his passenger side, saying, who the
frick is this?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Because the window is down. It's like I was a
good right to reach in and snatches ass. Yeah, that's
exactly what you were about to do.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
I was prepared for that. It's like the old Sid
Caesar joke. Do you remember birth? You're coming out of
the window like that. All right, So do you want
to explain yourself mister Ronner? Well, I just you seemed
lost in your own world, probably thinking about something important
that you were going to talk about tonight and enlighten
everybody about either that or just porn. But anyway, you
(02:37):
were lost in your own will crossing the street. I
gave you a little two to the horn. You didn't
immediately recognize me, so I took the opportunity to surprise
you with a middle finger. And then it took you
like a fraction of a second before you recognize me.
And as I mentioned to you on the way in,
it's that fraction of a second that I live for.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
It's just beautiful like you like, hey, hey, who oh,
he left out a very important part. No you try
to kill me?
Speaker 3 (03:04):
No, no, no, no, no more fake news on your part.
How can you disseminate that kind of disinformation on the
people's airwaves like that.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
I'm offended even you can't even tell that with a
straight face.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
No, I said you should thank me. Where's the gratitude?
Thank you for not running me down, for keeping you
alert when you were Were you looking at your phone?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
No, I actually wasn't.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
I do not look at my phone across the street
because I had been hit by car.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
As a pedestrian. I'm always aware of cars, okay.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Because sometimes if people are doing that and I'm waiting
to turn a corner. I'll roll down the window and say,
look up from your phone, you idiot. No, no, no, you
weren't doing that.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
No no, I had my food in the bag in
my right hand, and I'm walking with intent across the street. Now,
I don't know if you were paying attention, but when
I was walking across the street, there was someone coming
out of the garage and he jumped the light because
he didn't want to wait for the cross traffic. Oh,
if you come out of our parking garage, you can
go straight and go right and go left, but usually
(04:04):
the light for the pedestrian turns green first. So I
start walking, and as soon as I start walking, this
guy coming out of the garage jumps the red light
because his light has not turned green yet, because he
did not want to wait for any of the cars,
which might have kept him from turning left.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Probably had someplace important to go, probably in labor, something
that we don't understand. So we should extend the benefit
of the doubt. But I'll tell you you weren't as
surprised as I had hope, because I like it when
people are so surprised they do the little surprise dance.
No no, no, Tawala knows this about me, You'll learn
this about me.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
I look for confrontation. Oh I see, So if someone's
hawking their horn, I'm just turn of like, who the
mother father are you? So you're like Jack Reacher, You're
just like waiting for something to go and walking across
the street.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I'm in the crosswalk, I have the light, and here
you are screeching to a halt and you hank the
orn' it me.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I wish you'd had like a milkshake or something and
you were mid drinking.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I did not flinch, I did not jump. I didn't
throw out my hands like, oh my gosh, you scared me. No,
because I'm always aware, especially when it goes to crossing
the street, because I like you notice when people are
on the phone and they just assume that cars will
stop for them. They just step off the curb thinking that, well,
I got the light, so there's nothing for me to
(05:24):
worry about, having this visible barrier around me, nothing can
touch me. It's crazy because especially when people are stepping
off the curb, invariably there's someone who's going to make
that right on a red and not really expecting someone
to step off the curb and you get a lot
of these side swipes, or you almost get your your
leg taken off because people are not paying attention, either
(05:45):
because they're on their phone, or someone is turning right
but looking left for the oncoming traffic.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
So you're saying that, like in Ninja, you were aware
of all your surroundings and nothing could surprise you. And
I'm taking this. Why do see mischaracter everything? I say, no, no, no,
I'm just trying to read between the lines.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I'm taking. Well, you're illiterate there, Yeah, you're making it up.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
You just got done spewing a huge mouthful of fake news.
And I won't take this from you. This is a
personal challenge. I'm gonna interpret this like Cato in the
old Pink Panther movies.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
So just whenever you're not ready, be ready. You admit
that you instigated this.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Oh, I'm proud that I instigated it.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I intend to instigate more.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Okay, Sam, I hope you got that on tape so
we we know he won't be able to lie about
it later.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Twala, you heard it right, I heard it. This is
for court later. You instigate it, so's your intent is clear?
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Mind, there's bad faith there's murder in your voice, bad
faith interaction. Not so much murder as just maybe some
mild incontinence. You were unsuccessful, Okay, so now what, Well,
there's always next time. And I tell you this, if
you did it to Tuala, his response might have been
a little more aggressively. I kicked bumpers. I wouldn't have
(07:06):
kicked your bumper. I would have kicked your fender. Because
you kicked the bumper. That means you're standing in front
of the car. You keep the side of the Yeah,
that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Yeah, the Pamela, Yeah boom, just like get that thing,
like Steve McQueen would have done.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
You guys are cool. Yeah, and especially if we actually
didn't know each other, what are you going to do?
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Get out of your car and chase me into a
building you can't get into.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Oh no, you never get out of the car. Never
get out of the car.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
So I would have taken advantage of that, Like you
never know if someone gets out the car.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
It's it's one of those things.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
You can see someone frantically trying to put their car
in part and trying to dislodge. I can promise you this,
I'd say at least seven times out of ten, it
is faster for me to get back around to your
car to kick your door in as you try to
open it. Oh, you try to open it and get
out head first. Pow, your head is getting there. There's
(08:02):
only one way you can get out of the car,
So I know which way you're know which way you're coming.
I know what you're about to do.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
One of my favorite genres of online video is people
who are in a road rage and they get out
of their car and then the other guy gets out
of the car and is twice their size, and they're like,
oh my bad, I'm sorry. I'll be getting back in
my car now. No.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I try not to do that stuff anymore.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
I try, but every once in a while someone tries
to run me down as I'm walking away from Whole Foods,
and then all of a sudden, I snap back to
where I used to be when I was thirty something.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Are you back into the whole youth? I was mine
in my own business and you want to start something.
We almost had a misunderstanding.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Almost, boy, think of my good fortune and not and
I'm making you angry.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Like the Hulk. See See he's asking for Sam, see
what I'll say. Good evening to Sam. Good evening to Daniel.
Good evening to Wala Mark. Don't take their side, Sam,
Good evening.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
When we come back, we're going to talk about the
LAUSD plans for new bus routes and safer zones. KFIM
six forty WeLive everywhere the iHeart Radio App. Good evening
to you out there listening on iHeartRadio App. Good evening
to everyone except Mark Ronald.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
I AM six forty. It's Later with Mo Kelly.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
We're live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and the iHeartRadio App.
And this is an unusual time for America, and this
is an uncertain time here in America. And now as
students are going back to school, we talked about it
last week, but in earnest over the next few weeks,
just about everyone we'll be back in school. This will
(09:44):
be the first time that kids will be in school
dealing with these immigration raids and these unconventional tactics which
are being used by Ice as far as popping out
of a van in front of a home depot or
showing up at a church or showing up at a
s and different school districts are having to deal with
this in different ways. LAUSD they made it clear at
(10:08):
least as of yesterday, LA Mayor Karen Bass and also
USD Superintendent Corvallo said that they will be implementing new
bus routes and safe zones, as they say, to keep
students safe from immigration raids. And although we may not
know the status of someone's citizenship, whether they're undocumented, you
(10:30):
don't know just by looking at them. You know that
some people may be undocumented, and it may not be
the child, it may be the parent, it may be
the grandparent. And when it comes to taking kids to
school or making sure that they're safe in an academic environment,
there's a lot of uncertainty there. I'll just tell you
what it is for me and my environment when I'm
(10:51):
teaching Hopkito, which is not like school in the traditional sense,
but we're dealing with a lot of kids, many of them,
I would say the larger percentage of them are Latino.
We have been down in attendance because students are either
unsure of coming or the people who may bring them
the class should be there. Be it their parents or
(11:12):
their grandparents. They may be undocumented. Sometimes they are and
they're unsure of what's going to happen in a raid sense.
And we in my Doujon have had internal discussions as
far as how we would handle it if in fact
there were an immigration raid, and more and more businesses
have to have these conversations. Schools have to have these conversations.
(11:37):
I'm quite sure to Waal, as an administrator of a school,
he has to have these conversations. And I'm not saying
there's one right way to do it. We know that
there's a lot of controversy surrounding the city's stance as
being a sanctuary city, which means that local officials, local
PD Sheriff's department, they're not going to directly help or
(12:00):
aid in the administration of ICE raids or looking for
undocumented individuals.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
But this is going to be something which is going.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
To cause a lot of issues for the foreseeable future,
because as kids go back to school, as kids need
that ride to.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
School or home from school.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Or get on the bus, and as ICE continues in
their unconventional methods of trying to meet their quota of
three thousand arrests per day. This is going to wreak havoc,
most likely on school campuses or around school campuses. Think
about any given day, you can go to just about
any school in LAUSD, show up at around three o'clock
(12:49):
and you will see lines of cars of parents waiting
to pick up their children. Now, think about that same
scenario which is going to go on at any school
in LAUSD about maybe two point thirty three o'clock with
an ice raid attached. Not only are you putting children
(13:10):
in danger. Depending on how it pans out, you could
have an absolute you could have a loss of control
of the situation. Let me put it that way very
very quickly. And schools have to plan for this in advance.
I'm not saying that there's a right way or a wrong.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Way to do it.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I'm saying that schools are planning in advance. In LAUSD,
being the second largest school district in the country, is
prepared for this or at least prepared for the possibility.
And this is what Superintended Carvallo had to say. Quote,
we have rerouted a number of our bus routes. We
have added additional bus routes to ensure that we have
(13:51):
transportation for all we are appealing to our community. Parents,
if you are afraid of being on the street with
your child, more than likely can't accommodate a specific bus
route for your child. And this also goes back to
what we were told originally about what ICE was going
to do and how they were going to go about it.
(14:13):
My issue has always been methods and tactics. I don't
think that there is an argument you can make as
to the legality of being undocumented in America. The law
is the law, but also the punishment and the enforcement
of the law. The methods and tactics do matter in
(14:34):
the way that being undocumented. I've said it before and
I think it bears repeating, in the way that being
undocumented in and of itself is not a misdemeanor.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
It's a violation. It's a citation.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
And the way that speeding is, in the way that
loitering is and the way that littering is, just being
undocumented is just a citation, and in the way that
we would not ever think of enforce seeing a speeding
violation in this way, in the way that we would
never think of enforcing littering or loitering in the way
(15:08):
that ICE does. Yes, it may be quote unquote against
the law, but we also have to be mindful of
how we enforce the law, and in this case, we
have to be mindful of how we enforce the law
and the unintended consequences when it has to do with children.
I question, I openly question, whether we are creating a
(15:30):
safe environment given how these raids are being conducted. Just
because something is against the law, it doesn't in any
way justify or validate any and all means. And you
can also connect this to what is now happening in Washington,
d C. With the federalization of the DC Police and
(15:52):
the use of Secret Service and FBI, the National Park
Service and DEA. If I'm not mistaken to as in
general law enforcement duties, this is not about safety. This,
I should say, how it's going about it right now
is not about safety. I think it's making it more
unsafe here in LA for children and families to meet
(16:16):
a quota. But I know that not everyone agrees with that,
and I know that this is just going to happen
as the President has said, it is going to happen
and will continue to happen. My greatest concern is someone
gets hurt unnecessarily, a child gets hurt in the administration
(16:36):
of some of these raids, or families are separated in
the administration of these raids. There is a way that
we can enforce the law with some degree of empathy
and some sort of parameter and outer boundary as far
as what we will and will not do. And going
back to the story, Lausd is planning for these eventualities
(17:00):
in the way that we've seen these raids just about everywhere,
be it a public place or a private storefront, or
a school or outside a church. We have to assume
that this is going to be the norm for the
foreseeable future, for at least the next few weeks and months,
and schools are going to have to be prepared, and
(17:21):
Lausd is saying we're at least preparing in the sense
of having extra bus routes and also more buses to
accommodate kids so they're not standing outside and being targets,
if you will, for immigration raids, or being used as
some sort of lure for an immigration raid, and parents
(17:42):
being reticent to even pick up their kids or send
their kids to school because of these raids.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
It's later with Mokeli KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
We're live everywhere the iHeartRadio app and social media, and
when we come back, I got to tell you about
Burbank's first dog park. It's almost finish, it's almost near
final approval, and we'll tell you about that next. You know,
I love my dogs. I mean, I can't see that
out about Mark. I'll be nice, I'll be nice. You
(18:11):
had to find some way to bring me into it.
I was impressive.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
I have to, if only because you tried to kill me.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Or No, that was a nice little stretch you did there.
I appreciate now even I have limitations. Nice work.
Speaker 5 (18:21):
You're listening to later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
KFI. Mister bo Kelly, I'm actually surprised that Burbank, which
is a dog friendly community, did not have its own
dog park. And I worked in around Burbank for I
don't know how many years, for decades, and I never
really thought of it until more recently. I saw more
and more stories about this. But after decades, and it's
(19:01):
taken decades of people living in Burbank requesting this, Burbank's
first dog park is in its final stages.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Of approval.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
It's going to cost like some two point four million
dollars and it's done in conjunction with the Los Angeles
Department of Water and Power. The Dick Clark Dog Park,
as it will be called, will feature a statue of Crypto,
Superman's dog. Well not actually Superman's dog. Well, it depends
on the story. You know, in some stories a Superman's
(19:34):
dog and other stories as Supergirls dog. You can just
get around it by saying Crypto the superdog. That's how
it is. In the comics. You're well, you're welcome. But
people may have most recently seen the Superman movie, and
in that Superman movie it was Supergirl's dog. I'm just
trying to help mom. No, please, don't you try to
kill me earlier. You can't help. You survived, Yeah, everybody wins.
(19:57):
It's almost like shooting at someone is like, well I missed,
so it's okay.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Yeah, the age old question to stop any argument. Did
you die? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I didn't die. Okay, so
case closed.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
See, but since we went there, The Crypto statue will
be prominently displayed at the park's entrance, joining wonder Woman, Batman,
Green Lantern statues, which are already there, and it's supposed
to celebrate the city's entertainment industry. Heritage and Crypto will
be right down front, and the dog park will be
at the intersection of Riverside Drive and Bob Hope Drive.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Oh so it's right right around the.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Corner, literally right around the cornery.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
We exit out out the.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Parking Yeah, right, yeah, wow, once completed, And I've actually
driven by it a bunch of times. I just didn't
know that that was going to be the dog park.
If you get off the the one thirty four, the
one before right before it, right before Hollywood Way, Buenavista, Okay.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Okay, so it's the one that's right here.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
Yeah, get off of Buena Vista, make a left coming
off the one thirty four.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
East.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
Yes, yeah, and then you start driving it. You come
up to I'll say, the backside of iHeart. They have
this big open green area on the right, so I
know exactly where it's gonna be.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Once completed, the dog park will include twenty five parking
spaces and separate areas for large and small dogs with
doublegate entry systems. That's kind of standard dog agility equipment,
including ramps and tunnels, seventy trees, nineteen park benches and
picnic tables, shade structures, a central plaza with permeable pavers,
(21:45):
drinking fountains and dog water stations.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
Kind of standard.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
But here is something that's really interesting if you are
a dog lover dog owner. Instead of grass, the park
will use a specialized surface blend of seventy percent sand
and thirty percent pea gravel. I personally they call it
the dog park blend. I personally prefer the grass or
the grass astro turf like substance, whatever they use. I
(22:12):
usually take Riley and Benson to the Redondo Beach Dog Park.
But the only thing I don't like it it's all dirt.
Two big areas and plenty places for the dogs run.
It's very spacious, it's huge, but it's all dirt, which
means each time we go, I got to give them
a bath as soon as we get home because they're
tracking dirt everywhere. And you know, it's a great place
(22:35):
for dogs, but I that's a drawback. So when they
say that they put it down like a sand and gravel,
it's like, I'd rather have the the grassy like substance.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
It might just be harder to clean that. Oh no,
it probably is that.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
You know, it's not for our convenience, it's for their
convenience as far as maintenance. Just for me, I would
rather have it like in my you've been in my backyard,
we have a a synthetic turf which is specifically for
dogs and pets where they can do their business. It
seeps through you just run over with like a hose
(23:10):
and it doesn't really hold any odor or anything. So
they have a synthetic blend specifically four pets they could
have used.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
They're just not using it here. I like the idea
of it. Oh yeah, idea of it.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
And oh you know, I know exactly what you talking
about back here when you get out the freeway.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Correct, yes, you're back here ol on this side.
Speaker 4 (23:33):
Okay, yeah, no, I passed by that, And I've seen
people just out there walking dust, and a couple of
times I've seen people out there doing tai chi.
Speaker 5 (23:39):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Yeah, that area.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
Okay, it's like oblong, it's it's weird shape, so you
can't really do anything with it. It's perfect for a
dog park, you know, people out there playing flag football
and stuff, doing stuff out there, and for the while
they had this big border up and said what are
they going to do with it? And it's been for
a for a year, a few years, and then I realized, oh, okay,
that's where the dog park it's gonna be. And yeah,
(24:02):
I would like to take Benson and Riley to it
when it's completed. I just I just need someone to
just watch over them, like, you know, I could maybe
send Mark out there to just watch the dogs for
a while. I'll pay them, but you know, I gotta
do the show. I don't think you can afford me. Mom,
that's what she said. Ah, Sam, I could have swore
(24:23):
there was a dog park already in Burbank. I would
have thought the same thing too, But no, apparently the
one that I've been to is must be in Glendale.
Most magically, the border into Glendale, I could have swore
that was in Burbank.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
Maybe Glendale doesn't take much to get to Glendale.
Speaker 6 (24:39):
No, hopscotch across the little tiny invisible line.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Apparently, Yeah, not in Burbank.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
And I ask you, as a fellow dog lover, is
there a particular dog park that you usually take Marley.
Speaker 6 (24:55):
There's one in North Hollywood that I typically go to,
but also that one that was talking about Lendale. It's
just I believe south of the one thirty four when
you exit the one thirty four freeway. I could have
swore it was in Burbank, but it's just barely in
the Glendale side.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Apparently was off the one thirty four, off the one
thirty four.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
I'm trying to think, is that like by Pickwick Bowl
in that area close by there, close by there, just
further up the road at if you go further up riverside,
I think you'll get to it. Okay, Yeah, then maybe
we gotta do like a dog date anyhow, Absolutely, bring
the boys. You know, I would bring him to the office,
but Riley is an a hole and I can't trust
(25:35):
him unattended for any significant amount of time.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
What's he do?
Speaker 1 (25:40):
He would probably chew up something. And he's he barks incessantly.
He barks at people walking away across the street. He
barks at the ups man, he barks when he hears people.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Walking in front of the house. He's he's just like
right right right round, I hate you, Please go away,
please go away, right right right. He's an a hole.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
And when I take him out on a walk he's
determined to challenge every dog three times his size.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Just let him do a segment on your show. See
what people say.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
But he might ronate on the on the desk. Okay, he'll, he'll,
he'll bark into the mic. I can get him to
bark into the mic. It's just, you know, it's just unsanitary,
the urination.
Speaker 6 (26:19):
See, I can't confirm nor deny the fact that I
have Marley with me. I can't confirm nor deny that
dog is like the nicest, sweetest dog in the universe.
Speaker 2 (26:30):
Yes, yes, that is true. I have brought.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Benson here, but this was years ago when I was
doing the Mo Kelly Show and I had an office
and I could put him in there for a while
and I didn't have to worry about him running around.
And he's perfect. He's not going to have an accident anywhere.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
He just doesn't.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
He knows the difference between inside and outside. If he
sees grass that's outside, he knows he can do whatever.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Based on what you've told us about the men's room here,
it sounds like he's better trained than some of our employees.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
No doubt, no exaggerations. Seriously, that's a very low bar. Though, Mark,
it's a very low bar because people urinate on the
floor and they're routinely and intentionally.
Speaker 4 (27:10):
It's glistening around the floor of the taller urinal right.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
Now, glistening, a golden glistening. That's great, that's nice. I
mean it's almost like they went in closed their eyes
and started spinning in a three sixty circle, just spraying.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
It just makes me so proud.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Anyhow, I've never brought Riley up here. I don't know
if he can handle it. I mean, he wouldn't be
any worse, but I don't know if our program director
would appreciate hearing the dog barking in the background during segments.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
That's my only concern.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Now, Mark barking, that's okay, but not Riley slightly deeper
bark no bite though, Wait and see.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Look, you tried to kill me earlier. Okay, it's back
then you're sitting here, tell about it. I quit complain that.
Start counting your good fortune. I am six forty live
everywhere in the iHeartRadio app. When we come back, we
have to talk about how California and shooting stars. Where's
the best state in the Union to see a shooting star?
(28:16):
It's California and top ten. We'll find out in just
a moment.
Speaker 5 (28:19):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
With We're Live Everywhere, the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
We're still live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook as well if
you want to see the video simulcast of the show.
And I don't know how often you may see a
shooting star. You don't see them all that often, but
it depends on where you are. You know, where are
you in the state of California, Where are you around
the United States. If you are in the city of
(29:01):
Los Angeles in a very urban area because of light pollution,
and you may not see all that many shooting stars.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
I don't see that many in the city.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
But when I'm when I was younger and I was
going out to Joshua Tree or doing stuff with four
age and you're getting outside the city limits and you
get to see all the stars, whatever's happening in the sky,
then I would see more shooting stars. But I always
wondered whether California was conducive all in all, top to
(29:33):
bottom to see a shooting star. According to the Action Network,
they have the listed they have listed the top ten
states in the nation to glimpse a meteor or asteroid
as of twenty twenty five, and with how likely you
are to see one. Sam, do you remember the last
(29:53):
time or anytime that you saw a shooting star in California?
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (29:58):
Yeah, occasionally. I mean you got to be in this
that has a not so much light pollution. But you know,
if you hear that there's like one of those you know, asteroid.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Belts coming per see. Yeah, something.
Speaker 6 (30:09):
If you're going to be passing through someplace where you're
gonna be seeing a bunch of asteroids, just look up.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
You might catch a few. Mark.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
Do you see them in California? Or did you see
them in the state of Washington? Only if I watched
them on television. I have to admit I have been
an astronomy fan my whole life, but never one to
just hang out outdoors and look at the skies. I
think I've seen maybe three or four of my life, Tula,
what about you? I actually won clear night in Altadena.
(30:36):
When I got there, all the street lights were like off,
and I was got out my car and I was
taking just the pictures of the sky and I shot
a video because it was just such a peaceful, clear
night and a shooting star just shot across like count
and I was like, ah, I can't believe I caught
that because I wasn't there for shooting stars. I was like,
just take a video of the night sky. The Altaden
is very dark. So yeah, yeah, you're high up, there's
(30:59):
enough elevation. Well, here we go Top ten states for
spotting a shooting star.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Coming in at number ten Michigan with a two point
eight one percent chance. I don't know quantitatively how they
measure a two point eight one percent chance of seeing
a shooting star, but we'll take it.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
Comeing in number nine.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
The state of Idaho two point eight five percent chance
of seeing a shooting star.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
Number eight.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Alaska two point nine to four percent chance. I would
have thought Alaska would be a lower chance, if only
because you got some six months of light or whatever.
You would have less amount of darkness over a large
portion of the year. You're probably not going to see
as many shooting stars, and you've got the northern lights
going on. That's prove of a distraction right there.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
True.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
Yeah, there are a lot of things competing with what
would be a shooting star. Coming in number seven, Nevada
three point one seven percent chance. Yeah, that makes sense.
You're in the desert. There's probably not a lot of
things competing in the night sky. Yeah that makes sense.
(32:28):
Number six the same Arizona three point five zero percent
chance of seeing a shooting star or in other words,
an asteroid coming into the atmosphere. Number five of the
top ten states of spotting a shooting star, New Mexico
(32:56):
three point eight one percent chance. I'm getting a sense
of either the Midwest or the Southwest are some of
the best spots.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
Coming in at number four of the top.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Ten states for seeing a shooting star, Utah four point
two one percent chance. Not that I ever want to
go to Utah. Anyone here ever been to Utah. I
haven't been in Utah. Nothing in it for me. I
have not No, I don't plan it long. I don't
(33:28):
plan on going to Utah. I don't plan on going
to Idaho. I'm not going to West Virginia. There's just
some I'm not going to Mississippi. There's just some states.
There's nothing in.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
It for me.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
I don't think you'd like Idaho. I don't think i'd
like Idaho. I don't think I would like Mississippi. There's
certain states. It's just nothing for me, West Virginia. It's like,
what would I be going there for? Am I driving through? Possibly?
Speaker 2 (33:50):
But am I going there?
Speaker 1 (33:53):
No?
Speaker 2 (33:53):
Not at all. Coming in number.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
Three organ four point four zero percent chance of seeing
a shooting star.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
Coming in at number two.
Speaker 1 (34:15):
Colorado four point forty five percent chance of seeing a
shooting star. So number one. Okay, you got Orgon, you
got Utah, New Mexico, Arizona. I'm thinking something in the
in the southwest portion of the country. Sam, you got
any guesses who's number one?
Speaker 6 (34:38):
I can't even I'm still kind of confessed. I mean,
does this just mean the percentage of people who are
willing to look up? Because I'm assuming that you can
see a shooting star anywhere?
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Well, it depends because if you're like near downtown La,
no chance in hell, No chance in hell.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Yeah. So yeah, I mean you have to be looking up.
There has to be.
Speaker 1 (35:01):
A minimum amount of light pollution, and you have to
be looking up at the right time.
Speaker 6 (35:06):
I mean, I mean Kansas, Kansas might be a good
those flat land places as no mountains. Yeah, maybe, like
you know, unless there's like weather going on or something
so they can't see it through the clouds.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
But I don't know.
Speaker 6 (35:18):
That's how do you quantify that percentage of people who
will look up at the right moment?
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, I'm thinking that might have a shot
at being number one. Mark any guesses Washington hasn't been
listed yet, Nevada area fifty one, all that stuff, Well,
Nevada's number seven. I wasn't listening, I know, come join
the program. My goodness, first you try to kill me.
Now you're trying to kill the show.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
I had important journalism work to do here in the
KFI twenty four hour newsroom, so I forget.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
So please coming in at number one.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
As far as the top state in the nation for
spotting a shooting star, I think this just has to
do with land mass over the totality of the state
(36:15):
California six point sixty eight percent chance of seeing a
shooting star. I guess if you include Redwood and Lodie
and San Jose and Bakersfield, you know, in River Tucky
and legal cannabis.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
Yeah, people who are really high and just looking up.
Speaker 4 (36:35):
Well, also there is the what is it is the
per sed proceed proceed media Shah Perceed.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
Hey, Mark, what is it? You're perceed? Perceed?
Speaker 4 (36:46):
It's the Perseeded, It's the Pifonk, the media, Percy Young Perk.
It's coming back into the skies, the night skies, and
that means that you might want to be in.
Speaker 2 (37:00):
I'll leave to see it. Will we see it? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (37:03):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, No, I don't know. I haven't tracked
the path, Mark, I know what's in the news. Have
they said where it's going to be most visible? I
ran across an item yesterday.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
Let me do it quick, sir.
Speaker 1 (37:15):
That's the problem. I mean, I think it's relevant to
the show. We'll wait, just like you waited for me
across the street. No need to be rude. I'm just petty.
I'm small like that.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
Percyed Meteor Shower to peak this week, one of the
most impressive celestial shows of the years, reaching its peak
this week. The Percied Meteor Shower has had lights streaking
across the sky since last month, ramping up to Tuesday
night and early Wednesday morning, where sixty or more meteors
can shoot by in an hour. Does that satisfy you
most sixty? No, it doesn't tell us where viewing is
best in rural areas in the hours before dawn, but
(37:46):
the shooting stars can be seen anytime after dark.
Speaker 1 (37:48):
And we don't have a location, all right, so just
be rural. You just look up, okay, all right, sounds good,
Okay if I am since forty alive, everyone in our
heart ready
