Speaker 1 (00:22):
Mister Mokelly here KF five live everywhere on the iHeartRadio
app It's Later with Mo Kelly. I gotta ask you,
have you purchased your Powerball lottery ticket or five of
them or ten of them. I'm gonna be honest with
you on this rare occasion, I have not purchased any
lotto tickets, even though even though the jackpot at this
(00:46):
point is one point four billion dollars one point four
billion dollars, and we've talked about this before, what would
you do with the It be about what maybe six
hundred or seven hundred million if you took the lumps,
and I would never take annual installments. Give me all
my money up front. Give it to me now, give
(01:06):
it to me right now. I'm not trying to have
it in the bank for twenty years. I'm not even
going to be alive in the next twenty years for
all we know. I know I'm still being about my
doctor's appointment yesterday, Tony Sorrentino on the Ones and twos,
let me just say good evening to you. You and
I have commiserated off air over the years about the
(01:27):
things that we've been going through.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
The things that we have to deal with.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah, but we got to go to the doctor, and
they usually have bad news for us, I know, but
at least we're still alive for them to tell us
the bad news for now, which takes me to the
point of I need my lump some money in the
event that I were you know, the unlikelihood of it,
if any event that I might win one point four
(01:51):
billion dollar is give me my six hundred million after
taxes right now, right now. Let me do all that
I can in the next I don't know, five to
six years while I can still walk for it's too late.
I'm not going to wait twenty years. We're talking about
what twenty forty five. Can't look that far into the future.
(02:13):
I will be god willing seventy five years old. I
need all my money up front.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
So if you haven't purchased your tickets, your.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Lottery tickets, time is running out. Got maybe like maybe twenty.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Minutes or so. Okay, Moe, you know you're tripping.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
You would get right now off of that, and I've
been looking this up. You would get your six hundred
I think seventy five maybe if you got then the
annual payment you'll be getting close to eighteen I believe
even closer than nineteen million dollars a year for the
next thirty years.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Let me ask you this, Yes, what is a larger
amount of money the nineteen million in twenty twenty five
or the six hundred million in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
I just want to know that.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Across just answering a call, that's I may.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
I may look.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
We have had for we have even had an expert
on I know to say that there are reasons for
both live in America.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
We don't care about experts anymore.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
We don't care about science, we don't care about facts,
So be damned you're experts.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
He's probably elitist. He's that.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
I want my six hundred million upfront. Okay, So at
the bottom of the hour, I didn't purchase any lottery tickets.
But in the event that I did, I think that
means you did. I wouldn't tell you one way or
the other. All I know is if I want at
seven thirty, there's gonna be a lot of dead air
at eight o'clock because my ass is leaving a studio
(03:43):
and not coming back. Where's Walda? What happened to mo
up mos On vacation again. Didn't you just get back
from vacation? Yes he did, and he left again. Watch me.
I would text our boss from my car, Brian, I quit,
I just hit lotto. Have a nice life. I won't
(04:07):
be into work tomorrow. I would absolutely do it.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Why what is the point of just being at the
house when you get to say, you know what, I'm
coming in and I don't have a worry in the world, mister,
I'm taking it all.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Right now, what do you mean. I'd be at the house.
I'd probably call my wife and say, meet me at
the airport. I got something to tell you. Where do
you want to go? And take it from there.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
That's just me.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
You can you know, you can mess off the rest
of your life if you want. You can hold out
hope that you're going to be eighty three years old
to get that last payment, and hopefully you'll be you'll
be ambulatory enough to spend some of the money and
you won't be drooling on yourself. You won't be out
there with like bruises on your hand from shaking people's
(04:51):
hands or something.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
I'm not going to have hand bruising or any type
of pulmonory lies that keep me out of the public eye.
I'm not I'm gonna be out in the public eye chilling,
making sure that people know for a fact them out.
I'm not gonna have old photos of me to make
it seem like I'm out and about.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
I'm gonna be out and about mo. I think Twalla's
got some candles on him. Do you twaller.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Some swelling in your lower extremities trying to stuff those
cankles into.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Your shoes tonight? I know?
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Does he never wears short No, not at all, not
at all, deep vein thrombosis, very sus. Also on the
show tonight, we got not one, but two Metro stories.
There was the Metro bus, which, unfortunately I'm not going
to make fun of it. It's a tragedy. Ran over
someone at the transit center, the Harbor Gateway transit Center,
(05:49):
ran over someone who was in the road. Uh, he
didn't make it. We'll have to tell you about that.
And earlier today someone got stabbed on Metro. So Metro
was out there metroing and the best way that it
knows how killing people stabbing people Metro. Look, if they
didn't have any bad news, they wouldn't have any news
at all. I want to tell you something positive about Metro,
(06:11):
but there's nothing positive happening on Metro, with the exception
of the kill rate. They're doing very well there. That
was probably inappropriate. We're going to tell you about the
top public universities in the nation, and I'll give you
a little hint. California is well represented. I'm gonna beat
this education horse until I turn it into glue. California
(06:33):
is well represented, and you heard Nick pouli Ucchini make
reference to it last night. We're going to get into
the story about how Long Beach has a new minor
league baseball team, and it's asking the public. That's you,
that's me and Tony definitely not Mark. He doesn't know
anything about baseball. Twelve you don't like baseball, so I'll
count you out as well. But they're asking the public
to help find a name for the Long Beach minor
(06:58):
league baseball team. I think they should call like the
Long Beach Queen Mary's. How about just the Queen's not
the crip Walks.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Well, that's yeah, it could be the base Long Beach Crips. Yeah,
I'm saying Snoo could sponsor. You can see walk in
between bases, stupids in trouble right about now.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I don't know if he's yeah, well, if it's a
snooperlated thing. How about the Long Beach blunts. That's possible,
Long Beach blunts.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Long Beach does they have some high quality hookers out
there as well? They do the Long Beach escorts No
not escorts, No no no. When I say out there, I
mean like on the street. So those are okay. That
was Mark Mark Ronner said. That was Mark Runner speaking
as a journalist. Ho kfi, it's Later with Kelly. When
(07:51):
we come back, we talk about Metro and hopefully we
will never buyd.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
I AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
I remember standing right across from me, Winsilly. I remember
the old man.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Next to me, mantra.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Kfi, mister Kelly. It's Later with Mo Kelly.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
We're live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app and now we're
up and running on our video simulcast at mister Kelly
on YouTube. We had some technical difficulties prior, but we
got that out of the way thanks to Daniel, our videographer,
our video Maven. Let's talk about La Metro and you
know it's not going to be good news. So I'll
try to handle this with the with the do delicate
(08:57):
nature that it deserves.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
And let me just start here.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
It's gonna sound a little bit cynical, it's gonna sound
a little bit negative. But I don't know if Metro
is gonna be ready for the World Cup next year
or the Olympics in twenty twenty eight. When you're running
over people in the middle of the street, killing them,
when you're having stabbings between passengers in the middle of
the day during lunch hour, something is telling me that
(09:25):
you're probably not going to be ready come next year
or twenty twenty eight. And the La Metro bus operator,
I feel sorry for him or her because I wouldn't
wish this on anyone, But he or she don't know
which accidentally killed a pedestrian who was lying in the
roadway at Harbor Gateway Transit Center. If you're not familiar,
(09:48):
that is the main bus station. It's in Gardena and
I used to take it when I would go to
the Dodger Games. As a matter of fact, I would
take what is called the Silver Line, and it's a
free bus line that the Dodgers would offer would take
you from Harbor Gateway Transit Center down to Dodger Stadium
and bring you back right after the game. It was free,
(10:08):
So I have a reference point where this happened, and
their buses coming and going at every five.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Minutes or so. But it's not necessarily well lit.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
That's something I do remember and maybe part of the
reason why this unfortunately happened. As I was saying, a
bus operator hit and killed a pedestrian who was lying
unconscious in the middle of the roadway late last night.
We don't know whether someone was having some sort of
health emergency, some sort of difficulty. We don't know if
(10:43):
it was a homeless person. No information is given about
the person who unfortunately died, but according to the LA
Police Department, the incident was reported at the Harbor Gateway
Transit Center at about eleven twenty four pm last night,
which goes back to the.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Point I was making.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Not very well lit and if you are in the roadway,
I could understand and see how you would not be
seen by a driver, because if you're in the bus,
it's a much higher profile than someone who is obviously
laying in the roadway. The victim unfortunately has not been identified.
It's not clear what led to him losing consciousness, but
(11:23):
it's still being investigated as an accident, not a criminal matter.
And for me, it's more bad news for the agency.
It's not crime related, but it's still very bad news.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Now.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
If you want to talk about crime, well I got
you there as well. One person has been hospitalized in
a stabbing or the Metro g line, and that's in
North Hollywood. You may remember North Hollywood. They had been
celebrating the decrease in crime for the North Hollywood Metro
station and I assume that extends to the bus lines
(11:59):
as well. The victim is presently in grave condition. Get this,
after being stabbed in the neck sounds kind of personal.
A witness who was on the bus said there was
an altercation which started with a verbal argument between two men,
which then escalated to one of the men pulling out
(12:21):
a knife and stabbing the other man in the neck.
It's not clear whether they knew each other. Mark ronnerd
good evening. I just wonder what could have been the
conversation between two people who did not know each other
which would then escalate to stabbing someone in the neck
where I assume, and I presume that there was a
bus load of people.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
I like how you waited until you saw me taking
a bite of food. That was intentional.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
You damn right, that was intentional because you were not
behaving yourself.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Last segment, Well, let me just say there's an old
Derek and Clive routine, and that's Dudley Moore and Peter Cook.
One says to the other, you know, the other day
at work, some guy comes up to me and says hello.
The other guy goes, oh no, what'd you do? Well?
I kicked his teeth in is what I did. So
I suspect that could have happened on a metro. Anything
(13:11):
could have happened.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
But I'm thinking, like, what type of conversation would you
get in with someone on the metro which would then
escalate to a stabbing? Because I'm thinking, when I'm on
public transit, or when I used to use public transit,
I'm not getting into a conversation with anyone.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Oh no, somebody says hello to me, I'm moving away
New Yorker. But this is all science fiction, though, because
neither of us are ever getting on a metro.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
This is all hypothetical at this point, but I just
know it's not a place where you have conversation. Yeah,
maybe someone said something or was being rude or acting
in a way which might have seemed that he was
on drugs or something.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
But I'm not going to have a conversation.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
And in that small, enclosed environment, I'm not letting you
get within arms reach.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I'll think, like Batman, you got to be aware of
your surroundings. And even mister Flipper of the middle finger here,
if I'm on an enclosed bus, it's not gonna be
like that scene in Nobody where you just clean house.
You're gonna get jumped on.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Oh yeah, and stab or Shang Shi where they had
the bus fight scene as well. Yeah, you don't get
to do that. You're not them, not at all. Here's
what one of the witnesses had to say. Quote, I
ended up taking off my Dodgers jersey, and you know
the Dodgers, they don't want any type of negative press
connected to this. I ended up taking off my Dodgers jersey.
Stopping the blood that kept pouring everywhere. Everybody was getting
(14:38):
scared running out of the bus.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Well, yeah, the term stopping when it comes to blood
is just that's plenty alarming in and of itself. I'll
think of stopping with food, not blood. We don't need
that with blood.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
But you know, it gave us a visual, a very
very unfortunate visual. But it was clear that he was
bleeding out, probably from his carotid artery. That's unfortu But
it's another reason why I can't, in good conscience recommend
the Metro because, look, no one is going to get
stabbed in the neck in my car. That much, I
can guarantee. All right, there's never been any history of
(15:13):
someone getting murdered. I haven't run over anyone yet, knock
on wood. But there are certain things you just don't
have to worry about in your car. But if you
get on the Metro, you might get shot. You might
get stabbed. Hell, you might be approaching the Metro and
get run over, and you may not even know why.
Is there ever a why? It doesn't matter you were
that's literally rolling wrong place, wrong time, because if you
(15:38):
get on the bus, you get on the train, there's
a good chance that you won't go home that night.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
This happened in the middle of the day.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
It was like it's eleven twenty four bright ass middle
of the day. People were probably going to lunch or
coming from lunch, and all of a sudden, someone gets
stabbed in the neck. I didn't want to see any
sick post lunch. Yeah, that probably killed the appetite. Let
me tell you when we come back, we got to
(16:07):
tell you about the top public universities in the nation,
and I will say this, California is well represented.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six.
Speaker 5 (16:20):
Forty KFI Later with Mo Kelly Live everywhere in the
iHeartRadio app and we're live on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
You can check out the show.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
You can see my latest polo all we're trying to
make fun of my polos earlier in the week. I
take exception to that. I happen to like a collared shirt.
What's wrong with a man wearing a collared shirt? It
shows a level of sophistication. Don't Mark, I know you're
(16:57):
waiting to say something to Mart I know no.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I support all your choices and I respect them as
well as you can tell by the yes, Mark, is
that a black T shirt you're wearing.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Don't you start in with no, no, no, I'm just curious, Mark, nobody, Mark,
I'm just what color is your shirts?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
That's a black T shirt. It might be what do
you care? I've got on a black T shirt, so
it's a band shirt.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
I am literally trying to say, Mark that we are
part of the T shirt club.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Look at Tony with just a T shirt, black T shirts.
I'm just saying, is that Pantera? I can't read it
from here. I'm just saying that.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Right now, if we were a band, right then you
would have Mo as the lead singer with his black
polo shirt, while maybe Mark is on you know, bass guitar.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
No, no, no, no, that's not see him as more like
one of the background dancers like in the in the
Squeeze video.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
No Mark, Look, Moe's got on the lead shirt, he's
got the polo on. You know, Tony because he's got
ban on his shirt, he's got to be on drums,
so he's up high. You know, I'm playing some weird instrument.
Maybe on the hype man, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
Yeah, I feel like I lashed out at you a
little bit too unnecessarily because everybody's guards up around here,
because that's all we do to each other. I just
asked if you had a pleasure, So what of it?
You take it outside? Yeah? Yeah, sorry unmeasured response there.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Somehow, some way, we're going to make a turn and
get back to the store where I'm actually going to
talk about that. That diversion was my fault. Top ten
public universities in the nation. You say public university like
a UC school or a cal State school, public university
as opposed to the private university like USC. So here
(18:42):
we go, Top ten public universities in all the nation.
And I told you last segment, California is going to
be on this list. So coming in at number ten,
University of Maryland College Parks. That's just University of Maryland
that we all know. And University of Maryland College Park's
(19:06):
estimated total cost of attendance for in state undergraduates is
thirty two thousand dollars, compared to sixty two thousand for
out of staters. About seventy six percent of the university's
thirty two thousand undergraduates are in state. YadA, YadA, YadA,
blah blah blah. Median earnings three years out for graduates
(19:26):
is seventy nine thousand dollars. Coming in number nine the
top public universities in the country UVEA as in University
of Virginia, and it's recognized for his beautiful campus. It
is designed by Thomas Jefferson himself. It's recognized for its
(19:48):
strong Division one athletics, including its women's swimming and diving team,
which has won five consecutive NC TWOA.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Championships since twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
It has the highest six year graduation rate for all
students out of the top twenty five public universities at
ninety five percent, and graduates three years out average eighty
two thousand dollars and one hundred and fifty three thousand
after twenty years.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
So go to University of Virginia.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
You should do well coming here at number eight of
the best public colleges and universities in the country. UNC
Chapel Hill. That's the University of North Carolina. That's the
North Carolina Powder View Blue that everyone knows. It has
a total undergraduate enrollment of twenty one thousand, and in
(20:38):
accordance with North Carolina state law didn't know this, at
least eighty two percent of incoming first year students at the.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
School must be in state.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
The university also made Forbes New Ivy's list, graduates earn
a mediate of seventy one thousand dollars three years out
and one hundred and twenty one thousand twenty years out,
coming in at number seven. And I'm sorry I didn't
say this. This is, according to Forbes magazine, coming in
number seven of the best public universities in the country.
(21:16):
Georgia Institute of Technology, or Georgia Tech as most people
know it. I'm not buying it. I here's a decent school. Okay,
all right, Georgia though, Georgia Tech. Not Georgia. Not the bulldogs,
this is the yellow jackets.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
You say so.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Three years after graduating, students from Georgia Tech earned the
highest median income out of the top twenty five public
colleges at ninety two nine hundred dollars, and it goes
up to one hundred and sixty eighty twenty years out.
So Georgia Tech pretty successful there, coming in at number
(22:00):
six of the best public universities in the country.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
You see Irvine.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Thirty seven percent of UC Irvine graduates receive PEL grants
for lower income students, the highest percentage at any Forbes
top twenty five public college. The recipients have an eighty
four percent six year graduation rate compared to eighty six
percent for all students. In state tuition and fees are
fourteen seven hundred dollars. That is definitely a bargain compared
(22:33):
to forty six thousand dollars for out of state students. Yeah,
graduates earn a median of seventy six thousan nine hundred
dollars three years after graduation, and it rises to one
hundred and fifty two thy twenty years out, coming in
at number five. The top public universities in the country
(22:57):
the Gators of University of Florida undergraduate population of thirty
eight thousand students. My goodness, tuition and fees are significantly
more expensive for out of state undergraduate which it usually
is out of state thirty thousand, nine hundred dollars per.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Year and six thousand dollars for in state.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Wow, Graduates earn a median of one hundred and twenty
seven thousand dollars twenty years out from graduation, coming in
at number four. University of Michigan and Arbor. That's Big
Blue Michigan's that we all know. As far as a
(23:40):
football team, it has an undergraduate enrollment of thirty three thousand,
nine hundred people. Some miniature city graduates earn a median
salary of eighty three thousand, one hundred dollars three years
after graduating, and it rises to one hundred and forty
two thousand on average twenty years, out coming in at
number three of the best public colleges and universities in
(24:02):
the country.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
You see San Diego.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Thirty three percent of undergraduates are pel grant recipients, the
second highest percentage of the top twenty five public colleges.
It has thirty four thousand, eight hundred undergraduates and has
a median income of eighty two grand three years after
graduation and one hundred and fifty six thousand dollars on
average twenty years, out coming in number two of the
(24:35):
top public colleges and universities in the country.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
You might have heard of this one.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Eight clap for UCLA University, California, Los Angeles. It received
I bet you didn't know this one hundred and forty
five thousand applications. This past year, one hundred and forty
five people. Thousand people submitted their application to go to
UCLA only admitted thirteen thousand and six hundred for its
(25:06):
fall twenty twenty five freshman class. That's an acceptance rate
of nine point four percent, very exclusive, and two thirds
who were admitted California residents. Graduates earn on average one
hundred and fifty than twenty years out and coming in
at number one of the best public colleges and universities
(25:29):
in the country. Do you have any guests, Mark Ronner,
Washington State University St. Polman, the Washington University, sud WSU,
the Cougars, Okay, Tony, do you have any guests? Well,
just just guess a school man. That's how radio works.
Humor me. Fullerton College, fullertin Okay. Well, you got the
(25:49):
state correct. It's in the right state.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
So it's not the Cougars. It's not the Huskies. This
list is bogus. Man coming in number one, UC Berkeley
(26:16):
earns the top spot for public colleges again, ranking fifth
overall on Forbes' Top five hundred schools. Graduates earn immediate
income of ninety one thousand dollars after three years, which
rises to one hundred and seventy k twenty years out,
the highest median salary of the top twenty five public universities. Yeah,
(26:40):
it has thirty four thousand undergraduates, and it's known for
its social sciences, computer and information sciences, and engineering majors.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
I want to pay all an investigation. This list is shady. Oh,
I'm quite sure. With any list, it's basically advertisement. For
the schools on the list.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
They benefit from being in Forbes Top five hundred, top
twenty five, you know, top fifteen, whatever, So you're you're
probably not wrong. They're probably like you have the restaurant
people who go around and they'll they'll they'll give a grade,
they'll assess your food. Yeah, same thing. If agrees to the
(27:19):
right people, you'll get on the list. It also, says
Mark Ronner, just to rub it in, since you didn't
finish your PhD, more than five hundred UC Berkeley graduates
went on to earn a PhD within the first three
years after graduation, the highest number of any public college.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Well, it was like, I didn't finish my PhD. Because
it was like Spock in that first Star Trek movie.
You know, when he's going to get that Ultimate Logic
Prize and he holds up in his hand and he's like, no,
no more. I don't need this anymore. That was what
I did. You had your fill of education. I was done.
I started working at a newspaper and I thought, this
low paying, unsecure your career is for me. I don't
(28:01):
need to be a professor. See that's what you get
for going to college.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
You should have just saved the time, save the money,
and gone straight into radio or print media.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Yeah, you don't need any education for radio, do you?
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Did you They require a journalism degree or a college
degree when you first start working in print media.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
Just a drug test and you failed that one. No,
I didn't, but I was like, what do you a
drug test to work at a newspaper? Are you testing
to see if I have enough drugs? What are you doing?
I'm trying to think.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Working for the City of Carson, they drug tested me
at the very beginning, and they reserved to write to
drug test you at any point because I'm working with kids,
you know, with the Parking Rex League, So they drug
test you. You have to give up your fingerprint for
the national database. So if I should mess up anywhere,
(28:54):
they'll be able to find me in the country. You know,
they got my fingerpents in the registry.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Well that makes sense. I mean, and I think I
would do that with you as well. You fingerprint me,
oh just for starters, Yeah, DNA, the whole nine.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Yards sounds very personal. You need to be kept track of.
When we come back, we want to see if we
can keep track of some of the entrants for the
new name of the Long Beach Minor League baseball team,
because they're asking for our help to name the team.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
That's next.
Speaker 4 (29:26):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
KFI Later with Bo Kelly, Let's talk a little bit
of baseball. Dodgers lost tonight to the Pirates. That's part
of the baseball story. The other part is there is
some more professional baseball coming to Southern California, more specifically
Long Beach. Long Beach has a new minor league team,
(29:55):
and it's going to be a part of the Pioneer
Baseball League. It's an independent league, one of four major
independent leagues, but it is a partner with Major League Baseball.
So you are seeing professional baseball players who you may
see later on in their careers in Major League Baseball.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
For the next nine days, the Long Beach.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
League Baseball will be accepting submissions from fans on the
team's new name. It is limited to California residents. Gotta
live in California, but you can submit your suggestions in
a form of short videos or written statements via the
team's website, which is Pioneer League dot com, or you
(30:43):
can find just google it. You'll be able to find it.
You know, it's not for me to give you all
the information. If you want to find it, you'll find it.
But you'll have until September twelfth to offer your submission.
A group of judges will select three finalists from the
fans submitted name before opening up a fan vote on
the winner, which the judges will ultimately decide. The new
(31:06):
team will play at Blair Field and if you are
familiar with the Long Beach area, that is Long Beach
State's Field where their team plays. And I was thinking
teams don't have to be so formal anymore. If you
look at the Pioneer Baseball League teams presently, they have
the Oakland Ballers, they have the Missoula paddle Heads, Billings
(31:31):
Mustangs is in Billings, Montana, the Idaho Falls Chuckers c
h U K A R S I don't know if
that is a Native American.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Yeah, careful with that one, I say, yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
The Ogden Raptors, the Rocky Mountain Vibes, Glacier Range Riders,
YOUBA Sutter High Wheelers, the Great Falls Voyagers, Boise Hawks,
Grand Junction Jackalobes, and the Colorado Spring sky Socks. Okay,
(32:10):
so what would we do for Long Beach? How about
the Long Beach Lowriders. I like the alliteration. Yeah, that's
usually works with sports teams.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
That's how stan Lee would do it, the Long Beach
Low Ride.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
But it doesn't have to have an alliteration. You could
be the Long Beach Homeless.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (32:27):
You know what if Snoop was named of the team,
he could call them the Chappelle's because of how he
feels about gay people. How about the Long Beach rodent infestation. No, no, no, no,
that would be the Long Beach uh Diseased, because it's
not just the rodents, it's the disease that comes with.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
Oh, Long Beach Hepatitis A, B and C. Yeah, or
or tetanus. What's the disease they got jumped? Well, make
it more general, they could just be the Long Beach Carriers.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Yes, oh yes, I like the double entendre yes long beach,
patient zero, one, two and three.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Uh huh, rolls off the tongue just fine.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
Well, speaking of diseases, for my final thought, you probably
heard Mark Ronner talk about the state of Florida where
they're removing the whole mandatory vaccine schedule for the state
for kids and adults. Yeah, that kind of ties into that,
so we will talk about Florida in my final thought.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
K if I am six forty Live Everywhere, the iHeartRadio
Speaker 4 (33:32):
Act, ks FIN and KOST HD two Los Angeles, Orange
County more stimulating talk
Mister Mokelly here KF five live everywhere on the iHeartRadio
app It's Later with Mo Kelly. I gotta ask you,
have you purchased your Powerball lottery ticket or five of
them or ten of them. I'm gonna be honest with
you on this rare occasion, I have not purchased any
lotto tickets, even though even though the jackpot at this
(00:46):
point is one point four billion dollars one point four
billion dollars, and we've talked about this before, what would
you do with the It be about what maybe six
hundred or seven hundred million if you took the lumps,
and I would never take annual installments. Give me all
my money up front. Give it to me now, give
(01:06):
it to me right now. I'm not trying to have
it in the bank for twenty years. I'm not even
going to be alive in the next twenty years for
all we know. I know I'm still being about my
doctor's appointment yesterday, Tony Sorrentino on the Ones and twos,
let me just say good evening to you. You and
I have commiserated off air over the years about the
(01:27):
things that we've been going through.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
The things that we have to deal with.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah, but we got to go to the doctor, and
they usually have bad news for us, I know, but
at least we're still alive for them to tell us
the bad news for now, which takes me to the
point of I need my lump some money in the
event that I were you know, the unlikelihood of it,
if any event that I might win one point four
(01:51):
billion dollar is give me my six hundred million after
taxes right now, right now. Let me do all that
I can in the next I don't know, five to
six years while I can still walk for it's too late.
I'm not going to wait twenty years. We're talking about
what twenty forty five. Can't look that far into the future.
(02:13):
I will be god willing seventy five years old. I
need all my money up front.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
So if you haven't purchased your tickets, your.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Lottery tickets, time is running out. Got maybe like maybe twenty.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Minutes or so. Okay, Moe, you know you're tripping.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
You would get right now off of that, and I've
been looking this up. You would get your six hundred
I think seventy five maybe if you got then the
annual payment you'll be getting close to eighteen I believe
even closer than nineteen million dollars a year for the
next thirty years.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Let me ask you this, Yes, what is a larger
amount of money the nineteen million in twenty twenty five
or the six hundred million in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
I just want to know that.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Across just answering a call, that's I may.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
I may look.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
We have had for we have even had an expert
on I know to say that there are reasons for
both live in America.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
We don't care about experts anymore.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
We don't care about science, we don't care about facts,
So be damned you're experts.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
He's probably elitist. He's that.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
I want my six hundred million upfront. Okay, So at
the bottom of the hour, I didn't purchase any lottery tickets.
But in the event that I did, I think that
means you did. I wouldn't tell you one way or
the other. All I know is if I want at
seven thirty, there's gonna be a lot of dead air
at eight o'clock because my ass is leaving a studio
(03:43):
and not coming back. Where's Walda? What happened to mo
up mos On vacation again. Didn't you just get back
from vacation? Yes he did, and he left again. Watch me.
I would text our boss from my car, Brian, I quit,
I just hit lotto. Have a nice life. I won't
(04:07):
be into work tomorrow. I would absolutely do it.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Why what is the point of just being at the
house when you get to say, you know what, I'm
coming in and I don't have a worry in the world, mister,
I'm taking it all.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Right now, what do you mean. I'd be at the house.
I'd probably call my wife and say, meet me at
the airport. I got something to tell you. Where do
you want to go? And take it from there.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
That's just me.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
You can you know, you can mess off the rest
of your life if you want. You can hold out
hope that you're going to be eighty three years old
to get that last payment, and hopefully you'll be you'll
be ambulatory enough to spend some of the money and
you won't be drooling on yourself. You won't be out
there with like bruises on your hand from shaking people's
(04:51):
hands or something.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
I'm not going to have hand bruising or any type
of pulmonory lies that keep me out of the public eye.
I'm not I'm gonna be out in the public eye chilling,
making sure that people know for a fact them out.
I'm not gonna have old photos of me to make
it seem like I'm out and about.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
I'm gonna be out and about mo. I think Twalla's
got some candles on him. Do you twaller.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Some swelling in your lower extremities trying to stuff those
cankles into.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Your shoes tonight? I know?
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Does he never wears short No, not at all, not
at all, deep vein thrombosis, very sus. Also on the
show tonight, we got not one, but two Metro stories.
There was the Metro bus, which, unfortunately I'm not going
to make fun of it. It's a tragedy. Ran over
someone at the transit center, the Harbor Gateway transit Center,
(05:49):
ran over someone who was in the road. Uh, he
didn't make it. We'll have to tell you about that.
And earlier today someone got stabbed on Metro. So Metro
was out there metroing and the best way that it
knows how killing people stabbing people Metro. Look, if they
didn't have any bad news, they wouldn't have any news
at all. I want to tell you something positive about Metro,
(06:11):
but there's nothing positive happening on Metro, with the exception
of the kill rate. They're doing very well there. That
was probably inappropriate. We're going to tell you about the
top public universities in the nation, and I'll give you
a little hint. California is well represented. I'm gonna beat
this education horse until I turn it into glue. California
(06:33):
is well represented, and you heard Nick pouli Ucchini make
reference to it last night. We're going to get into
the story about how Long Beach has a new minor
league baseball team, and it's asking the public. That's you,
that's me and Tony definitely not Mark. He doesn't know
anything about baseball. Twelve you don't like baseball, so I'll
count you out as well. But they're asking the public
to help find a name for the Long Beach minor
(06:58):
league baseball team. I think they should call like the
Long Beach Queen Mary's. How about just the Queen's not
the crip Walks.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Well, that's yeah, it could be the base Long Beach Crips. Yeah,
I'm saying Snoo could sponsor. You can see walk in
between bases, stupids in trouble right about now.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I don't know if he's yeah, well, if it's a
snooperlated thing. How about the Long Beach blunts. That's possible,
Long Beach blunts.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Long Beach does they have some high quality hookers out
there as well? They do the Long Beach escorts No
not escorts, No no no. When I say out there, I
mean like on the street. So those are okay. That
was Mark Mark Ronner said. That was Mark Runner speaking
as a journalist. Ho kfi, it's Later with Kelly. When
(07:51):
we come back, we talk about Metro and hopefully we
will never buyd.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
I AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
I remember standing right across from me, Winsilly. I remember
the old man.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Next to me, mantra.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Kfi, mister Kelly. It's Later with Mo Kelly.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
We're live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app and now we're
up and running on our video simulcast at mister Kelly
on YouTube. We had some technical difficulties prior, but we
got that out of the way thanks to Daniel, our videographer,
our video Maven. Let's talk about La Metro and you
know it's not going to be good news. So I'll
try to handle this with the with the do delicate
(08:57):
nature that it deserves.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
And let me just start here.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
It's gonna sound a little bit cynical, it's gonna sound
a little bit negative. But I don't know if Metro
is gonna be ready for the World Cup next year
or the Olympics in twenty twenty eight. When you're running
over people in the middle of the street, killing them,
when you're having stabbings between passengers in the middle of
the day during lunch hour, something is telling me that
(09:25):
you're probably not going to be ready come next year
or twenty twenty eight. And the La Metro bus operator,
I feel sorry for him or her because I wouldn't
wish this on anyone, But he or she don't know
which accidentally killed a pedestrian who was lying in the
roadway at Harbor Gateway Transit Center. If you're not familiar,
(09:48):
that is the main bus station. It's in Gardena and
I used to take it when I would go to
the Dodger Games. As a matter of fact, I would
take what is called the Silver Line, and it's a
free bus line that the Dodgers would offer would take
you from Harbor Gateway Transit Center down to Dodger Stadium
and bring you back right after the game. It was free,
(10:08):
So I have a reference point where this happened, and
their buses coming and going at every five.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Minutes or so. But it's not necessarily well lit.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
That's something I do remember and maybe part of the
reason why this unfortunately happened. As I was saying, a
bus operator hit and killed a pedestrian who was lying
unconscious in the middle of the roadway late last night.
We don't know whether someone was having some sort of
health emergency, some sort of difficulty. We don't know if
(10:43):
it was a homeless person. No information is given about
the person who unfortunately died, but according to the LA
Police Department, the incident was reported at the Harbor Gateway
Transit Center at about eleven twenty four pm last night,
which goes back to the.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Point I was making.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Not very well lit and if you are in the roadway,
I could understand and see how you would not be
seen by a driver, because if you're in the bus,
it's a much higher profile than someone who is obviously
laying in the roadway. The victim unfortunately has not been identified.
It's not clear what led to him losing consciousness, but
(11:23):
it's still being investigated as an accident, not a criminal matter.
And for me, it's more bad news for the agency.
It's not crime related, but it's still very bad news.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Now.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
If you want to talk about crime, well I got
you there as well. One person has been hospitalized in
a stabbing or the Metro g line, and that's in
North Hollywood. You may remember North Hollywood. They had been
celebrating the decrease in crime for the North Hollywood Metro
station and I assume that extends to the bus lines
(11:59):
as well. The victim is presently in grave condition. Get this,
after being stabbed in the neck sounds kind of personal.
A witness who was on the bus said there was
an altercation which started with a verbal argument between two men,
which then escalated to one of the men pulling out
(12:21):
a knife and stabbing the other man in the neck.
It's not clear whether they knew each other. Mark ronnerd
good evening. I just wonder what could have been the
conversation between two people who did not know each other
which would then escalate to stabbing someone in the neck
where I assume, and I presume that there was a
bus load of people.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
I like how you waited until you saw me taking
a bite of food. That was intentional.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
You damn right, that was intentional because you were not
behaving yourself.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Last segment, Well, let me just say there's an old
Derek and Clive routine, and that's Dudley Moore and Peter Cook.
One says to the other, you know, the other day
at work, some guy comes up to me and says hello.
The other guy goes, oh no, what'd you do? Well?
I kicked his teeth in is what I did. So
I suspect that could have happened on a metro. Anything
(13:11):
could have happened.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
But I'm thinking, like, what type of conversation would you
get in with someone on the metro which would then
escalate to a stabbing? Because I'm thinking, when I'm on
public transit, or when I used to use public transit,
I'm not getting into a conversation with anyone.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Oh no, somebody says hello to me, I'm moving away
New Yorker. But this is all science fiction, though, because
neither of us are ever getting on a metro.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
This is all hypothetical at this point, but I just
know it's not a place where you have conversation. Yeah,
maybe someone said something or was being rude or acting
in a way which might have seemed that he was
on drugs or something.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
But I'm not going to have a conversation.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
And in that small, enclosed environment, I'm not letting you
get within arms reach.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I'll think, like Batman, you got to be aware of
your surroundings. And even mister Flipper of the middle finger here,
if I'm on an enclosed bus, it's not gonna be
like that scene in Nobody where you just clean house.
You're gonna get jumped on.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Oh yeah, and stab or Shang Shi where they had
the bus fight scene as well. Yeah, you don't get
to do that. You're not them, not at all. Here's
what one of the witnesses had to say. Quote, I
ended up taking off my Dodgers jersey, and you know
the Dodgers, they don't want any type of negative press
connected to this. I ended up taking off my Dodgers jersey.
Stopping the blood that kept pouring everywhere. Everybody was getting
(14:38):
scared running out of the bus.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Well, yeah, the term stopping when it comes to blood
is just that's plenty alarming in and of itself. I'll
think of stopping with food, not blood. We don't need
that with blood.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
But you know, it gave us a visual, a very
very unfortunate visual. But it was clear that he was
bleeding out, probably from his carotid artery. That's unfortu But
it's another reason why I can't, in good conscience recommend
the Metro because, look, no one is going to get
stabbed in the neck in my car. That much, I
can guarantee. All right, there's never been any history of
(15:13):
someone getting murdered. I haven't run over anyone yet, knock
on wood. But there are certain things you just don't
have to worry about in your car. But if you
get on the Metro, you might get shot. You might
get stabbed. Hell, you might be approaching the Metro and
get run over, and you may not even know why.
Is there ever a why? It doesn't matter you were
that's literally rolling wrong place, wrong time, because if you
(15:38):
get on the bus, you get on the train, there's
a good chance that you won't go home that night.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
This happened in the middle of the day.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
It was like it's eleven twenty four bright ass middle
of the day. People were probably going to lunch or
coming from lunch, and all of a sudden, someone gets
stabbed in the neck. I didn't want to see any
sick post lunch. Yeah, that probably killed the appetite. Let
me tell you when we come back, we got to
(16:07):
tell you about the top public universities in the nation,
and I will say this, California is well represented.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six.
Speaker 5 (16:20):
Forty KFI Later with Mo Kelly Live everywhere in the
iHeartRadio app and we're live on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
You can check out the show.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
You can see my latest polo all we're trying to
make fun of my polos earlier in the week. I
take exception to that. I happen to like a collared shirt.
What's wrong with a man wearing a collared shirt? It
shows a level of sophistication. Don't Mark, I know you're
(16:57):
waiting to say something to Mart I know no.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I support all your choices and I respect them as
well as you can tell by the yes, Mark, is
that a black T shirt you're wearing.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Don't you start in with no, no, no, I'm just curious, Mark, nobody, Mark,
I'm just what color is your shirts?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
That's a black T shirt. It might be what do
you care? I've got on a black T shirt, so
it's a band shirt.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
I am literally trying to say, Mark that we are
part of the T shirt club.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Look at Tony with just a T shirt, black T shirts.
I'm just saying, is that Pantera? I can't read it
from here. I'm just saying that.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Right now, if we were a band, right then you
would have Mo as the lead singer with his black
polo shirt, while maybe Mark is on you know, bass guitar.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
No, no, no, no, that's not see him as more like
one of the background dancers like in the in the
Squeeze video.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
No Mark, Look, Moe's got on the lead shirt, he's
got the polo on. You know, Tony because he's got
ban on his shirt, he's got to be on drums,
so he's up high. You know, I'm playing some weird instrument.
Maybe on the hype man, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
Yeah, I feel like I lashed out at you a
little bit too unnecessarily because everybody's guards up around here,
because that's all we do to each other. I just
asked if you had a pleasure, So what of it?
You take it outside? Yeah? Yeah, sorry unmeasured response there.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Somehow, some way, we're going to make a turn and
get back to the store where I'm actually going to
talk about that. That diversion was my fault. Top ten
public universities in the nation. You say public university like
a UC school or a cal State school, public university
as opposed to the private university like USC. So here
(18:42):
we go, Top ten public universities in all the nation.
And I told you last segment, California is going to
be on this list. So coming in at number ten,
University of Maryland College Parks. That's just University of Maryland
that we all know. And University of Maryland College Park's
(19:06):
estimated total cost of attendance for in state undergraduates is
thirty two thousand dollars, compared to sixty two thousand for
out of staters. About seventy six percent of the university's
thirty two thousand undergraduates are in state. YadA, YadA, YadA,
blah blah blah. Median earnings three years out for graduates
(19:26):
is seventy nine thousand dollars. Coming in number nine the
top public universities in the country UVEA as in University
of Virginia, and it's recognized for his beautiful campus. It
is designed by Thomas Jefferson himself. It's recognized for its
(19:48):
strong Division one athletics, including its women's swimming and diving team,
which has won five consecutive NC TWOA.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Championships since twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
It has the highest six year graduation rate for all
students out of the top twenty five public universities at
ninety five percent, and graduates three years out average eighty
two thousand dollars and one hundred and fifty three thousand
after twenty years.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
So go to University of Virginia.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
You should do well coming here at number eight of
the best public colleges and universities in the country. UNC
Chapel Hill. That's the University of North Carolina. That's the
North Carolina Powder View Blue that everyone knows. It has
a total undergraduate enrollment of twenty one thousand, and in
(20:38):
accordance with North Carolina state law didn't know this, at
least eighty two percent of incoming first year students at the.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
School must be in state.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
The university also made Forbes New Ivy's list, graduates earn
a mediate of seventy one thousand dollars three years out
and one hundred and twenty one thousand twenty years out,
coming in at number seven. And I'm sorry I didn't
say this. This is, according to Forbes magazine, coming in
number seven of the best public universities in the country.
(21:16):
Georgia Institute of Technology, or Georgia Tech as most people
know it. I'm not buying it. I here's a decent school. Okay,
all right, Georgia though, Georgia Tech. Not Georgia. Not the bulldogs,
this is the yellow jackets.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
You say so.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Three years after graduating, students from Georgia Tech earned the
highest median income out of the top twenty five public
colleges at ninety two nine hundred dollars, and it goes
up to one hundred and sixty eighty twenty years out.
So Georgia Tech pretty successful there, coming in at number
(22:00):
six of the best public universities in the country.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
You see Irvine.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Thirty seven percent of UC Irvine graduates receive PEL grants
for lower income students, the highest percentage at any Forbes
top twenty five public college. The recipients have an eighty
four percent six year graduation rate compared to eighty six
percent for all students. In state tuition and fees are
fourteen seven hundred dollars. That is definitely a bargain compared
(22:33):
to forty six thousand dollars for out of state students. Yeah,
graduates earn a median of seventy six thousan nine hundred
dollars three years after graduation, and it rises to one
hundred and fifty two thy twenty years out, coming in
at number five. The top public universities in the country
(22:57):
the Gators of University of Florida undergraduate population of thirty
eight thousand students. My goodness, tuition and fees are significantly
more expensive for out of state undergraduate which it usually
is out of state thirty thousand, nine hundred dollars per.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Year and six thousand dollars for in state.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Wow, Graduates earn a median of one hundred and twenty
seven thousand dollars twenty years out from graduation, coming in
at number four. University of Michigan and Arbor. That's Big
Blue Michigan's that we all know. As far as a
(23:40):
football team, it has an undergraduate enrollment of thirty three thousand,
nine hundred people. Some miniature city graduates earn a median
salary of eighty three thousand, one hundred dollars three years
after graduating, and it rises to one hundred and forty
two thousand on average twenty years, out coming in at
number three of the best public colleges and universities in
(24:02):
the country.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
You see San Diego.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Thirty three percent of undergraduates are pel grant recipients, the
second highest percentage of the top twenty five public colleges.
It has thirty four thousand, eight hundred undergraduates and has
a median income of eighty two grand three years after
graduation and one hundred and fifty six thousand dollars on
average twenty years, out coming in number two of the
(24:35):
top public colleges and universities in the country.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
You might have heard of this one.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Eight clap for UCLA University, California, Los Angeles. It received
I bet you didn't know this one hundred and forty
five thousand applications. This past year, one hundred and forty
five people. Thousand people submitted their application to go to
UCLA only admitted thirteen thousand and six hundred for its
(25:06):
fall twenty twenty five freshman class. That's an acceptance rate
of nine point four percent, very exclusive, and two thirds
who were admitted California residents. Graduates earn on average one
hundred and fifty than twenty years out and coming in
at number one of the best public colleges and universities
(25:29):
in the country. Do you have any guests, Mark Ronner,
Washington State University St. Polman, the Washington University, sud WSU,
the Cougars, Okay, Tony, do you have any guests? Well,
just just guess a school man. That's how radio works.
Humor me. Fullerton College, fullertin Okay. Well, you got the
(25:49):
state correct. It's in the right state.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
So it's not the Cougars. It's not the Huskies. This
list is bogus. Man coming in number one, UC Berkeley
(26:16):
earns the top spot for public colleges again, ranking fifth
overall on Forbes' Top five hundred schools. Graduates earn immediate
income of ninety one thousand dollars after three years, which
rises to one hundred and seventy k twenty years out,
the highest median salary of the top twenty five public universities. Yeah,
(26:40):
it has thirty four thousand undergraduates, and it's known for
its social sciences, computer and information sciences, and engineering majors.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
I want to pay all an investigation. This list is shady. Oh,
I'm quite sure. With any list, it's basically advertisement. For
the schools on the list.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
They benefit from being in Forbes Top five hundred, top
twenty five, you know, top fifteen, whatever, So you're you're
probably not wrong. They're probably like you have the restaurant
people who go around and they'll they'll they'll give a grade,
they'll assess your food. Yeah, same thing. If agrees to the
(27:19):
right people, you'll get on the list. It also, says
Mark Ronner, just to rub it in, since you didn't
finish your PhD, more than five hundred UC Berkeley graduates
went on to earn a PhD within the first three
years after graduation, the highest number of any public college.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Well, it was like, I didn't finish my PhD. Because
it was like Spock in that first Star Trek movie.
You know, when he's going to get that Ultimate Logic
Prize and he holds up in his hand and he's like, no,
no more. I don't need this anymore. That was what
I did. You had your fill of education. I was done.
I started working at a newspaper and I thought, this
low paying, unsecure your career is for me. I don't
(28:01):
need to be a professor. See that's what you get
for going to college.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
You should have just saved the time, save the money,
and gone straight into radio or print media.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Yeah, you don't need any education for radio, do you?
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Did you They require a journalism degree or a college
degree when you first start working in print media.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
Just a drug test and you failed that one. No,
I didn't, but I was like, what do you a
drug test to work at a newspaper? Are you testing
to see if I have enough drugs? What are you doing?
I'm trying to think.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Working for the City of Carson, they drug tested me
at the very beginning, and they reserved to write to
drug test you at any point because I'm working with kids,
you know, with the Parking Rex League, So they drug
test you. You have to give up your fingerprint for
the national database. So if I should mess up anywhere,
(28:54):
they'll be able to find me in the country. You know,
they got my fingerpents in the registry.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Well that makes sense. I mean, and I think I
would do that with you as well. You fingerprint me,
oh just for starters, Yeah, DNA, the whole nine.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Yards sounds very personal. You need to be kept track of.
When we come back, we want to see if we
can keep track of some of the entrants for the
new name of the Long Beach Minor League baseball team,
because they're asking for our help to name the team.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
That's next.
Speaker 4 (29:26):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
KFI Later with Bo Kelly, Let's talk a little bit
of baseball. Dodgers lost tonight to the Pirates. That's part
of the baseball story. The other part is there is
some more professional baseball coming to Southern California, more specifically
Long Beach. Long Beach has a new minor league team,
(29:55):
and it's going to be a part of the Pioneer
Baseball League. It's an independent league, one of four major
independent leagues, but it is a partner with Major League Baseball.
So you are seeing professional baseball players who you may
see later on in their careers in Major League Baseball.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
For the next nine days, the Long Beach.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
League Baseball will be accepting submissions from fans on the
team's new name. It is limited to California residents. Gotta
live in California, but you can submit your suggestions in
a form of short videos or written statements via the
team's website, which is Pioneer League dot com, or you
(30:43):
can find just google it. You'll be able to find it.
You know, it's not for me to give you all
the information. If you want to find it, you'll find it.
But you'll have until September twelfth to offer your submission.
A group of judges will select three finalists from the
fans submitted name before opening up a fan vote on
the winner, which the judges will ultimately decide. The new
(31:06):
team will play at Blair Field and if you are
familiar with the Long Beach area, that is Long Beach
State's Field where their team plays. And I was thinking
teams don't have to be so formal anymore. If you
look at the Pioneer Baseball League teams presently, they have
the Oakland Ballers, they have the Missoula paddle Heads, Billings
(31:31):
Mustangs is in Billings, Montana, the Idaho Falls Chuckers c
h U K A R S I don't know if
that is a Native American.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Yeah, careful with that one, I say, yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
The Ogden Raptors, the Rocky Mountain Vibes, Glacier Range Riders,
YOUBA Sutter High Wheelers, the Great Falls Voyagers, Boise Hawks,
Grand Junction Jackalobes, and the Colorado Spring sky Socks. Okay,
(32:10):
so what would we do for Long Beach? How about
the Long Beach Lowriders. I like the alliteration. Yeah, that's
usually works with sports teams.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
That's how stan Lee would do it, the Long Beach
Low Ride.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
But it doesn't have to have an alliteration. You could
be the Long Beach Homeless.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (32:27):
You know what if Snoop was named of the team,
he could call them the Chappelle's because of how he
feels about gay people. How about the Long Beach rodent infestation. No, no, no, no,
that would be the Long Beach uh Diseased, because it's
not just the rodents, it's the disease that comes with.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
Oh, Long Beach Hepatitis A, B and C. Yeah, or
or tetanus. What's the disease they got jumped? Well, make
it more general, they could just be the Long Beach Carriers.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Yes, oh yes, I like the double entendre yes long beach,
patient zero, one, two and three.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Uh huh, rolls off the tongue just fine.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
Well, speaking of diseases, for my final thought, you probably
heard Mark Ronner talk about the state of Florida where
they're removing the whole mandatory vaccine schedule for the state
for kids and adults. Yeah, that kind of ties into that,
so we will talk about Florida in my final thought.
