K F I A M six forty YouTube and get
this Facebook and we're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Yes,
we are streaming live on Facebook. Where at mister Kelly
m R m O k E l l y. We're
streaming live on YouTube? Where at mister Kelly m R
m O K E l l Y. I think we'll
(00:43):
even be up on Instagram. Hey, Stefan, where will we
Where will we be on on Instagram? Where will we
be live?
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Where?
Speaker 3 (00:51):
What's the address? M R m O K K E
l Y. I know it's a TOMU twister.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Yeah, I gotta tell you where everywhere, But this is
where I want to start tonight. I got your messages,
I got your notes, I got your anecdotes about Yes, Mo,
you called it. Yes, I know, I know, I do
know this. In fact, Twalla and I we were communicating
(01:18):
for the better part of the day talking about what happened,
and it's still happening actually at Dodger Stadium right now.
We told you that they're likely well all. There are
two parts of this. The first part is the Dodgers
as an organization are going to have to say something.
They're going to need to address this on some level.
(01:39):
Originally they were scheduled to make a statement earlier today,
they've delayed it to maybe tomorrow, something about what they
want to do for the community. As far as immigrants
in the Los Angeles community. Our reserve judgment until that
statement is actually released. But I also said that there
were some rumblings and there was a distinct possible ability
(02:01):
that Dodger Stadium might be used by ICE or some
other federal agents like US Customs and Border agents to
affect some of these arrests or strategize something having to
do with these raids. And this morning there were maybe
four or five cars. Originally we thought that when I
(02:23):
say we in the media, we thought that they were ICE.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Come to find out later they were not ICE. ICE
denied it was them.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
I think Homeland Security security denied it was them, and
come to find out it was US Customs and Border Protection.
Now Homeland Security says that whoever was there at Dodger
Stadium had nothing to do with the raids.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
That's a lot of bullshite. Okay.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
They were not just parked right outside of Dodger Stadium
because they're having lunch, you know. They tried to get
in to the Dodger Stadium parking lot. And if you
don't know the Dodger Stadium parking lot, it's not owned
by the Dodgers. It's owned by Frank McCourt, who used
to own the Dodgers. Long story short, it's private property.
They wanted to get in, they were not allowed in,
(03:07):
and eventually LAPD showed up to keep the peace. Because
here's the ironic thing. People were protesting at Dodger Stadium
having nothing to do with any federal agents. They were
showing up trying to get the Dodgers' organization to make
a statement, and they wanted to be there if and
when the organization did, then lo and behold, oh my goodness,
(03:31):
we have federal agents here. And then it really started
to escalate from there. I'm glad nothing bad happened. There
were no incidents of violence, there was no escalation. But
now Dodger Stadium itself is now a center point for
i'll say, the protests for the next few days until
the Dodgers have something to say. And yes, I've said
(03:54):
it before and I'm going to say it again. I'm
just a guy who's on the radio and I'm not
going to take all the response, I should say all
the credit for pushing the Dodgers into a place where
they felt compelled to make a statement. I'm not going
to take all the credit, but I'm gonna take more
than none. Let me put it that way, I'm gonna
take more than zero. I think I had a role
(04:17):
to play. And this is where we talk about the
effectiveness of protesting.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
There's a.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Very specific goal here where you want the Dodgers organization
to step out and make a statement and go on
the record where they are in this fight. They have
to say something that was the short term goal. And
we've collectively because I've heard from your your the messages
that you sent me, I watched the tiktoks and the
(04:45):
Instagram posts, and this has been a groundswell of support
in this endeavor. Again, I'm not taking all the credit,
but I'm going to take more than zero of the credit.
Where that falls on the spectrum, that's up to you.
We've pushed the organization to where they're going to have
to make a public statement, and they also know that
(05:05):
the protests are now on their doorstep. They're going to
be in the news regarding this every single day. We
have live video right now if you go to our
YouTube and also our Facebook video simulcasts at mister mo'kelly
for both of them, you can see lapd out there
lined up.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
You can see fans just outside the gate.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
There is a game which is going to be starting
very shortly at Dodger Stadium. So there is a concern
that there's more about this story before the night is through,
and probably it will be there tomorrow if and when
the Dodgers officially make their announcement. If they don't, then
this is going to go on foreseeably in perpetuity because
(05:52):
the demands, the expectations have not been met. And each
day which passes, and I really want this to be clear,
each day that passed that the Dodgers don't make some
sort of statement, it's going to be more difficult to
say anything which is going to satisfy the public. The
longer you make people wait, the more dissatisfied people will become.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
And then it gets to a point where you lose
control of the narrative.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
You won't be able to say anything in which will
help abate all of this. So the Dodgers are running
out of time. They said they were going to say
something this morning, it didn't happen. They postponed it to later.
I'll assume it's tomorrow. Maybe I'm wrong, but if they
wait into the weekend or into next week, then it
probably gets to a point where more ill will will
(06:41):
be generated, more than anything, and they will not be
able to turn the narrative around.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
But let me just say this. I try to tell you.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
I tried to tell not only the organization but people
that Dodger Stadium specifically was going to be a tar
get if you will, for these raids. Now, I don't
care what Ice wants to stay on social media. They
want to deny it and say that they're not doing
anything there. Do you think that they're actually going to
(07:11):
tell you, yes, we're going to Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Did they announce that they were going to a mark first?
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Good evening? And where which home depot did Ice go
to today? I heard it in passing in your news report.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Let me see here.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I think it was even more than one home depot
if I'm not one in Hollywood, Okay, one in Hollywood
and a Lowe's in Pacoima.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
But I'm on Twitter and I'm seeing it happening all
over the city. As well.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
My point is, and thank you for that, Mark, they
didn't give anyone any advanced notice. So whatever they are
going to do in and around Dodger Stadium, they're not
going to tell you.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
They're not going to tell me.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
But we do know that federal agents were there this
morning for something to do with what's been happening here
in southern California, and any any statement to the contrary
is just a lie. This is going to continue along
this path because one there's a newfound focus on the
Dodgers organization, there's a new focus on Dodgers Stadium, and
(08:11):
still the organization has not released a statement. We'll have
more on this in just a moment. It's Later with
mo Kelly. We're live on Facebook now at mister mo Kelly.
We're live on YouTube at mister Mokelly, and we're live
on Instagram at mister Mokelly, and we're live everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
KFI AM six forty. It's a Later with mo Kelly.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
We're live on YouTube now, We're live on Facebook at
mister Mokelly and we're live on Instagram, live everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app. And I open up the show tonight,
didn't even do my traditional rundown because it was necessary
to talk about the news of the day right in
that moment as the Dodgers begin their game tonight at
(08:56):
Chavez Ravine, and I say chavs Ravine because that's a
part of the story. Is well, it's not just Dodgers
stated when you talk about the history of the relationship
between the Dodgers organization and the Latino community. And I
was saying, hey, Dodgers, you have to say something. You've
got to say something. And I don't know why they've
been choosing well, actually I do know, But there was
(09:20):
a better way they could have chosen the path of
least resistance. That is their choice here. They don't want
to get into the fray, got it. If they wanted
to get in the fray, they would have got in
the fray a long time ago. This morning, they announced
plans quote unquote to help cities immigrant communities.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
That seems like corporate speak.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
That seems like they'll provide some resources, they'll provide some help,
they'll provide some assistance, and they'll be sympathetic, and it's
a half measure, but I don't know if it will
satisfy the Latino community, which has been very, very vocal,
increasingly vocal about the absence of the Dodgers on this issue.
(10:02):
And if you know anything about half measures, almost like
you have a room which is maybe thirty feet long,
and you keep going half the distance, half the distance
than half the distance of that, you will never actually
get to the other side. You will never get to
the goal, and you will never satisfy anyone. But the
Dodgers at this point at least are acknowledging that they
(10:22):
have to say something. Whether that's something will be sufficient,
I don't know. It doesn't seem like it's going to
shape up as being sufficient. But at least they are
coming out of their shell and acknowledging the world which
is going on around them. And honestly, it's almost good
news what happened at the stadium because it takes everything
(10:44):
what has been going on in LA and put it
right at their doorstep, literally on their doorstep. They can
no longer look away because these protests and these seeming
raids now ice denied that they were there today and
we find out it was a US Customs and Border agents.
(11:05):
We're a long way from the border, but nonetheless those
are federal agents. They're a part of these raids. We're
in on the doorstep of the Dodgers' parking lot. The
Dodgers can no longer look away. But here is my
biggest question. Are you actually going to pick a side
in this? Are you actually going to take a stance.
(11:27):
I don't get the idea that the Dodgers are, and
maybe they're just trying to prolong this as long as possible,
so hopefully the storm will move on to another city.
I don't think it will. But I have noticed this
is not all the Dodgers fault. I have noticed that
ICE or Customs in border enforcement they're only going after
(11:52):
low hanging fruit. And I've been seeing some published reports
that ICE and whomever, they're not actually going into the
communities looking for gang members.
Speaker 5 (12:01):
Because you were told, I was told, Mark Ronald was told,
Twala was told that they were supposed to go after
the criminals first, and instead they've chosen to go after
the most vulnerable, the people who are easier to run
down in the middle of a home depot, parking lot
or at a school, at a church, and there's something
(12:25):
that should ring not only hollow insincere, but.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
There's something I want to say despicable about that, Because
if it's about ridding this country of the quote unquote worst,
and you're not going after the worst, I don't know,
maybe because they're the most dangerous. Maybe it's easier to
go after moms and children, people at schools, day laborers.
Maybe that's just easier if you're trying to get your
(12:52):
numbers up, but you're not actually solving the problem. It
makes me feel some kind of way because I know
what the campaign rhetoric was. I know you remember what
the campaign rhetoric was. We were told we're going to
start with the worst of the worst, We're going to
get the criminals out of this country. And then you realize, oh,
(13:13):
it's not about the criminals. And then we hear about
those people who are apprehended and taking into custody when
they were at their own asylum or their own legal proceedings,
and the moment that it's dismissed or they walk out
of the building, they're arrested and detained. Right there, people
(13:34):
who are trying to go about it the right way legally,
and then you realize, oh, it's not about the criminals,
it's not about illegal immigration. It's just you don't want
these brown people in this country. That's what it comes
down to. Because the people who are trying to do
it the right way, you're victimizing them.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Yes, that's the correct word.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
You're victimizing them because you're taking advantage of them doing
it the right way. So, in other words, there is
no answer which is going to satisfy this administration when
it relates to brown people in this country. And I
have no problem saying that because you're not going after
the people who've overstayed their visa, you're not going after
(14:16):
the other people who might be quote unquote illegal in
Los Angeles. You're going to home depot. Who do you
think you're going to find at home depot? Who do
you think you're going to find at these schools or churches?
And to say that, no, we're not profiling, No, you
damn sure are profiling because you know exactly what you find.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
You know what you.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Will not find at home depot MS thirteen. You know
what you won't find at home depot. The worst gang
bangers in the city. They're usually not looking for work
as a day laborer. I may be wrong, but I
doubt it. So let's call a thing a thing. If
we're going to be upset or call out the Dodgers
(14:59):
for not making a statement and call out the dishonesty
in which some have approached this, then let's call out
the dishonesty of what we were sold and what is
actually happening now. Home depot and day laborers is not
what we were advertised. Picking up people at their immigration
(15:26):
hearings is not what we were advertised. Only Latinos was
not what we were advertised because we were advertised illegal aliens.
And unless you think illegal alien and Latino is interchangeable,
and it isn't, well, we have another problem that we
(15:48):
have to deal with. There's what we were advertised, what
we were sold, and what we've actually gotten. Do you
actually want legal immigration because it doesn't seem like it.
It seems like you just want those brown mother fathers
out of this country.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
It's later with mo Kelly k If. I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, We're live on YouTube,
and we're live on Facebook. And when we come back,
we're going to tell you about a recent study of
the worst managed cities and the best here in this country.
Some cities might surprise you, and some definitely will not.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Forty am six forties Later with mo Kelly. We're live
on YouTube. We're live on Facebook and Instagram. If you're
just tuning in or struggling to find the Facebook live
at mister bo Kelly, you'll click on my avatar. There
should be a live button there and just click on
and you're right in the show. Wallet Hub release the
(16:57):
study this week ranking the best and world first run
cities in the country, and it won't be any surprise
when I tell you that six of California cities ranked
in the bottom ten. The website took the one hundred
and forty eight most populated cities in the country and
evaluated them across six different categories financial stability, education, health, safety, economy, infrastructure,
(17:24):
and pollution. The average of all those categories were calculated
as quote unquote quality of city services close quote, and
divided by a city's total budget per capita to decide
the overall rankings. So I guess we're going to start
at the bottom.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Let me just put it this way. It's really bad.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
There were one hundred and forty eight cities surveyed and ranked.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Let's get started.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Let's see who came in dead last at one hundred
and forty eight.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
San Francisco.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Yeah that tracks, Yeah it does. I'm actually surprised it
came in behind the city which came in one hundred
and forty six, oak Town.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Oh, it is weird. Yes, I would have thought Oakland
would have been one forty eight.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Yeah, not but anyhow, you know Tomato tomorrow homing in
at number one hundred and forty one. Fresno, Yeah, one
hundred and forty Long Beach, kind of surprise. I thought
(18:51):
Long Beach would have done better out of the top
one hundred and forty eight.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Also, hope Kiki's not listening. Oh, she's probably listening. She's
probably listening. She's on the way home.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
She heard both, you know, Long Beach and Fresno, and yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
Coming in at one hundred and thirty nine out of
one hundred and forty.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Eight Los Angeles. At least we didn't come in last.
We're in the bottom ten, but we didn't come in
last one hundred and thirty.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Eight out of one forty eight.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Stockton number one hundred and thirty.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
River Tucky.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Number one twenty eight. Baker's Bama comes in in one
twenty eight. Baker's Bama number one twenty seven. Do you
know the way to San Jose? Number one twenty six
(20:01):
of the worst run cities in America? Number one twenty
six out of one hundred and forty eight Sacramento.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Well, who wants to live in Sacramento? Have you ever
been a Sacramento. You're not missing a damn thing.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
There's nothing in Sacramento, nothing worth seeing, not even the
state Capitol one.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
This is kind of surprising.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Anaheim, Anaheim is in the bottom third of the worst
run cities in America according to wallet Hub number one
hundred and eleven. Yes, these are just the California cities.
Santa Anna. I look at first look, I would think
(20:54):
that Santa ana would have been below Anaheim, But not
the case not according to walle hub number one hundred
and seven of the one hundred and forty eight top
cities or bottom cities. However you want to look at
it in America. As far as best run slash worst run.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
San Diego.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Really right, right, it's kind of weird. Yeah, look all
this is arbitrary. Number one oh two, No, no, no, Modesto.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
Modesto is above San Diego. Modesto's better run than San Diego.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
No no, no, uh uh no.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Number ninety three.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Fremont. I guess you're not working with a lot in Fremont.
And the top ranked California city of the best run
slash worst run cities in America according to wallet hub,
of the top of one forty eight, coming in at
number thirty four is.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
How did you Beach?
Speaker 3 (22:17):
So makes sense? Yeah, that makes sense?
Speaker 2 (22:19):
All right?
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Here the top ten, real quick of the best run
cities in America. Here we go, Number ten, Mark, this
is for you, Fort Wayne, Indiana.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
My gotters. No one has to live there, but I
guess it's well run.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
This is very sus. Number nine Virginia Beach, Virginia. I
went there a couple of times in college, but that
was like the late eighties.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
That's where the woman who been into the McDonald's breakfast
in which just got a big settlement. Oh really, yeah,
must contribute to the to their ranking.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
Okay, Number eight of the best run cities in the Country, Lincoln, Nebraska.
Come on, well, it might be.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
The best run.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
I mean you're not dealing with anyone, know, a large population,
that's for sure. Population what forty five? Number seven Christy
Noman approves, Sioux Fall, South Dakota.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
They're picking areas where you'd have to put up a
bear cam on a tree to find out if anything's
going on.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
Number six of the best run cities in the United States.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Dover, Delaware. Never been anyone, anyone Euler Huller, Okay. Number
five Nashua, New Hampshire. I'll take your word for no
one's moving there. These are the fine folks at wallet Hub. Yeah,
(24:03):
this together, fine folks. I mean it's a great advertisement
for them. They got a seven minute commercial out of us.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I don't know what they really do.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
I don't know they they provide the biggest yeah financer,
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Someone Google even, I don't know what it does.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Number four, I mean with a healthy dose of KKK Boise,
Idaho checks it at number four Wow wealth, Yeah, best militias.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
Oh, we're not done yet.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Number three you'll see why. Manchester, New Hampshire, I got
nothing ever been Yeah, never going. Number two of the
best run cities in the United States according to wallet hub,
(24:57):
and also the best I can't say that on the air.
Well put it this way, Nampa, Idaho. Okay, these are
the whitest cities, aren't they. I can say they they
may be. I'm quite sure that, you know, the KKK
per capita is higher than most starting to sway that
well yeah, yeah, and coming in number one. The best
(25:18):
run city in the United States according to wallet hub, Provo, Utah,
where nobody's having any sex, no one's drinking. Well, at
(25:42):
least I should say no, you know, unmarried sex. Yeah,
these are.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
These cities most likely to find somebody with a gun
rack in their truck.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
No, no, no, no, no, because there are probably some
Southern cities that will be on this list.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
All right.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
You know, I don't know if they have as many
guns as let's say, uh, Birmingham out Obama.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
I think I'm moving wallet hub down on my list
of all time favorite hubs.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Did anyone look up wallet Hub as far as what
they actually do? Daniel's got it on the screen. I
think he's trying to show it to the moment egos.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
It's too small. I can't read that.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Not for us I think for them, but oh okay,
I can't. Credit cards, loans, credit scores, and more. Yeah,
so it's like credit carma. Okay, but that's weird that
they do so many lists. Let me tell you how
this business works. Okay, they put out these BS lists.
We'll never agree with them, we'll poke all holes in them,
(26:35):
but we keep talking about them. And we mentioned wallet
hub how many times in this segment. They're the variety
of hubs. That's an app comparison not to be taken seriously.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
It's Late with mo Kelly.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
We're live on Facebook for the first time tonight at
mister mo Kelly. We're still live on YouTube, We're still
live everywhere, the iHeartRadio app and Instagram as well.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
We're just everywhere.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
You're listening to Later with mo kel on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
AM six forty is Later with mo Kelly. We're live everywhere.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
We're live on Instagram, we're live on YouTube, and now

check out the show just about wherever your most comfortable
finding it.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
You can do it on your phone, you can cast
it to your TV.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
And I was talking to Daniel, our video technical director,
and looking at the stats, said some sixteen percent of
all of our viewers watch our show on a conventional TV.
Now I'm not sure whether that's casting it from your
phone or just bring it up on your smart TV
where you have the YouTube app, but people are tuning
(27:44):
in for more than thirty minutes at a time on average, and.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
We appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
We are growing by leaps and bounds, and it's because
that you have supported us every step of the way.
So that's why we roll it out to another platform
we can do that and it's oh and by the way,
it's Eddie Murphy Watch day twenty two. So the more
people we have watching and the different platforms that we
have that are available for people to tune in, it
(28:11):
makes it even more attractive to hopefully to get Eddie
on this show.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
What more piece of news.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Before we go excuse me, before we go to the break,
and also in the hour we have Marsha Caru're coming
up at the top of the hour. You may not
know that there is a new study using satellite images
from NASA to give you some perspective of how massive.
What I'm about to tell you is a new study
using satellite images from NASA shows this environmental crisis at
(28:44):
the Tijuana San Diego border.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
It can be seen from space and.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
The images show a wastewater plume just off Imperial Beach.
If you're from the area down in San Diego, you
know exactly where I'm talking about, Imperial Beach, like always clothes.
But this wastewater plume is made up of toxic wastewater.
We've talked about it, and it's pollution from untreated sewage,
(29:11):
raw sewage that's flowing into the Tijuana and Pacific Ocean
for years. You can now see it from space. But
this is a double emergency because when you talk about
sewage usually you're only talking about it from its liquid form.
But there's also an issue now with toxic gases coming
(29:33):
from it, and it is poisoning residents and has been
poisoning residents for years, and it's obviously about five years so,
and it's prompted an indefinite closure of the beach. On
the worst days, as we're told, the contaminated flows could
reach hundreds of millions of gallons hundreds of millions of
(29:57):
gallons each day. And I was telling you about toxic gases.
It's not just in the water anymore. You have to
also consider the bacteria, the viruses, the toxic gases which
are also connected to this.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
What is it he stepping up?
Speaker 2 (30:16):
What is it?
Speaker 3 (30:17):
I always say, just stay your ass out of the water,
Just don't go in the water. This is what we know, Okay,
this is only what we know of. What about the
stuff we don't know?
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Do you actually think we're getting an accurate reading of
the millions of gallons of raw sewage which are pouring
into Imperial Beach? No, But I just I just always
love like if you take like Manhattan Hermosa for example, Oh,
after Hermosa, You're fine, that's where it stops, right, right,
But it seems after a certain point. When was the
(30:46):
last time we had any good news about a beach?
That's a good point.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
Yeah, just what.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
I don't remember Mark Ronner saying, hey, you know what,
all the beaches are clean today. Go ahead and shake
your ass in the surf. I don't ever remember him
saying anything even approaching that. He has never said bacteria
levels have returned to normal, enjoy your weekend.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Frolicking in the surf.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
He has never said anything approaching that unlikely at this point,
don't you think. But I usually you think, okay, we
have like we used to have these like small alerts,
but then you get it all clear. You know, a
small alert you got to keep kids inside, can't go
outside to play because small can get into the lungs.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
Air quality, but then it would tell you air quality
is better.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
I don't remember getting any type of notification that water
qualities better. Are like what do they call it? The
energy alert during the summer the scene and they say, okay,
now we're well, yeah, no, you don't have to worry
about these rolling blackouts or anything. We're back in the
green zone.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Okay, So do you want like a baby ruth alert
look like caddy shack?
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Remember we had the terror alerts.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
I could never figured out a we orange or red
or you know, it's just but we knew that once
it was in a certain range, it was good again,
and they would tell us. But we never hear about
the ocean, and so I have to assume it's always bad.
That's the point. It's always freaking bad. There's raw sewage everywhere,
there's toxic algae everywhere all the time, waste water everywhere,
(32:15):
and there's never any note from you, Mark Runner in
the CAFI twenty four hour newsroom.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
That is getting any better.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
I take full responsibility for the filth and the water.
Speaker 3 (32:26):
And people want to say La has the best beaches.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
No it doesn't. No, it doesn't not even close, not
even close. You could not pay me to get in
one of our in the ocean, in one of our beaches. Look,
God love Jokwan and Matt money Smith who get out
there every single day and serf okay, but I would
not recommend it for anyone.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Those are the thrill seekers going out there and dodging
the floaties.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
Well not on that.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
Remember when Joquan came out and said, oh, yeah, I've
been stung by a manta, you know, a shark bit
off my arm the other day.
Speaker 3 (32:59):
It's like powers through man.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Yes, the jellyfish stung her fifty five times one time
she went out. The first time I get stung by
jellyfish is the last time. Like, I'm out, I'm out. Look,
I don't want anything to even like graze me. And
you're saying something out there could sting me, like.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Real, real, real hard. That was Joe Kwan able to
explain to you why this is fun. She's said to
me that it's a great workout. I guess she's a
bit of a thrill seeker. This is an adrenaline rush.
I assume I've never served.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
I only boogiey board it, and that was in my
youth till we're talking forty years ago. I don't have
any a recent memory of good times in the ocean.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
You know, I got a stationary bike on the back porch,
and I've never been stung by anything while I was
using it.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
Not even once, Not even a bee or have you.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
Uh, maybe a mosquito here and there during the summer,
but that was more off a bite than a sting.
No jellyfish.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
Okay, So the beach, potion water, it's dirty, Stay out
of it. And next week when we talk about it,
it'll be the same. It's later with mo Kelly k IF.
I am six forty. We're live on YouTube, Instagram and
also Facebook at mister bo Kelly, and we're live everywhere
on the iHeartRadio.
Speaker 4 (34:13):

(00:43):
even be up on Instagram. Hey, Stefan, where will we
Where will we be on on Instagram? Where will we
be live?
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Where?
Speaker 3 (00:51):
What's the address? M R m O K K E
l Y. I know it's a TOMU twister.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Yeah, I gotta tell you where everywhere, But this is
where I want to start tonight. I got your messages,
I got your notes, I got your anecdotes about Yes, Mo,
you called it. Yes, I know, I know, I do
know this. In fact, Twalla and I we were communicating
(01:18):
for the better part of the day talking about what happened,
and it's still happening actually at Dodger Stadium right now.
We told you that they're likely well all. There are
two parts of this. The first part is the Dodgers
as an organization are going to have to say something.
They're going to need to address this on some level.
(01:39):
Originally they were scheduled to make a statement earlier today,
they've delayed it to maybe tomorrow, something about what they
want to do for the community. As far as immigrants
in the Los Angeles community. Our reserve judgment until that
statement is actually released. But I also said that there
were some rumblings and there was a distinct possible ability
(02:01):
that Dodger Stadium might be used by ICE or some
other federal agents like US Customs and Border agents to
affect some of these arrests or strategize something having to
do with these raids. And this morning there were maybe
four or five cars. Originally we thought that when I
(02:23):
say we in the media, we thought that they were ICE.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Come to find out later they were not ICE. ICE
denied it was them.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
I think Homeland Security security denied it was them, and
come to find out it was US Customs and Border Protection.
Now Homeland Security says that whoever was there at Dodger
Stadium had nothing to do with the raids.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
That's a lot of bullshite. Okay.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
They were not just parked right outside of Dodger Stadium
because they're having lunch, you know. They tried to get
in to the Dodger Stadium parking lot. And if you
don't know the Dodger Stadium parking lot, it's not owned
by the Dodgers. It's owned by Frank McCourt, who used
to own the Dodgers. Long story short, it's private property.
They wanted to get in, they were not allowed in,
(03:07):
and eventually LAPD showed up to keep the peace. Because
here's the ironic thing. People were protesting at Dodger Stadium
having nothing to do with any federal agents. They were
showing up trying to get the Dodgers' organization to make
a statement, and they wanted to be there if and
when the organization did, then lo and behold, oh my goodness,
(03:31):
we have federal agents here. And then it really started
to escalate from there. I'm glad nothing bad happened. There
were no incidents of violence, there was no escalation. But
now Dodger Stadium itself is now a center point for
i'll say, the protests for the next few days until
the Dodgers have something to say. And yes, I've said
(03:54):
it before and I'm going to say it again. I'm
just a guy who's on the radio and I'm not
going to take all the response, I should say all
the credit for pushing the Dodgers into a place where
they felt compelled to make a statement. I'm not going
to take all the credit, but I'm gonna take more
than none. Let me put it that way, I'm gonna
take more than zero. I think I had a role
(04:17):
to play. And this is where we talk about the
effectiveness of protesting.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
There's a.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Very specific goal here where you want the Dodgers organization
to step out and make a statement and go on
the record where they are in this fight. They have
to say something that was the short term goal. And
we've collectively because I've heard from your your the messages
that you sent me, I watched the tiktoks and the
(04:45):
Instagram posts, and this has been a groundswell of support
in this endeavor. Again, I'm not taking all the credit,
but I'm going to take more than zero of the credit.
Where that falls on the spectrum, that's up to you.
We've pushed the organization to where they're going to have
to make a public statement, and they also know that
(05:05):
the protests are now on their doorstep. They're going to
be in the news regarding this every single day. We
have live video right now if you go to our
YouTube and also our Facebook video simulcasts at mister mo'kelly
for both of them, you can see lapd out there
lined up.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
You can see fans just outside the gate.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
There is a game which is going to be starting
very shortly at Dodger Stadium. So there is a concern
that there's more about this story before the night is through,
and probably it will be there tomorrow if and when
the Dodgers officially make their announcement. If they don't, then
this is going to go on foreseeably in perpetuity because
(05:52):
the demands, the expectations have not been met. And each
day which passes, and I really want this to be clear,
each day that passed that the Dodgers don't make some
sort of statement, it's going to be more difficult to
say anything which is going to satisfy the public. The
longer you make people wait, the more dissatisfied people will become.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
And then it gets to a point where you lose
control of the narrative.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
You won't be able to say anything in which will
help abate all of this. So the Dodgers are running
out of time. They said they were going to say
something this morning, it didn't happen. They postponed it to later.
I'll assume it's tomorrow. Maybe I'm wrong, but if they
wait into the weekend or into next week, then it
probably gets to a point where more ill will will
(06:41):
be generated, more than anything, and they will not be
able to turn the narrative around.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
But let me just say this. I try to tell you.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
I tried to tell not only the organization but people
that Dodger Stadium specifically was going to be a tar
get if you will, for these raids. Now, I don't
care what Ice wants to stay on social media. They
want to deny it and say that they're not doing
anything there. Do you think that they're actually going to
(07:11):
tell you, yes, we're going to Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Did they announce that they were going to a mark first?
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Good evening? And where which home depot did Ice go
to today? I heard it in passing in your news report.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Let me see here.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I think it was even more than one home depot
if I'm not one in Hollywood, Okay, one in Hollywood
and a Lowe's in Pacoima.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
But I'm on Twitter and I'm seeing it happening all
over the city. As well.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
My point is, and thank you for that, Mark, they
didn't give anyone any advanced notice. So whatever they are
going to do in and around Dodger Stadium, they're not
going to tell you.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
They're not going to tell me.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
But we do know that federal agents were there this
morning for something to do with what's been happening here
in southern California, and any any statement to the contrary
is just a lie. This is going to continue along
this path because one there's a newfound focus on the
Dodgers organization, there's a new focus on Dodgers Stadium, and
(08:11):
still the organization has not released a statement. We'll have
more on this in just a moment. It's Later with
mo Kelly. We're live on Facebook now at mister mo Kelly.
We're live on YouTube at mister Mokelly, and we're live
on Instagram at mister Mokelly, and we're live everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
KFI AM six forty. It's a Later with mo Kelly.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
We're live on YouTube now, We're live on Facebook at
mister Mokelly and we're live on Instagram, live everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app. And I open up the show tonight,
didn't even do my traditional rundown because it was necessary
to talk about the news of the day right in
that moment as the Dodgers begin their game tonight at
(08:56):
Chavez Ravine, and I say chavs Ravine because that's a
part of the story. Is well, it's not just Dodgers
stated when you talk about the history of the relationship
between the Dodgers organization and the Latino community. And I
was saying, hey, Dodgers, you have to say something. You've
got to say something. And I don't know why they've
been choosing well, actually I do know, But there was
(09:20):
a better way they could have chosen the path of
least resistance. That is their choice here. They don't want
to get into the fray, got it. If they wanted
to get in the fray, they would have got in
the fray a long time ago. This morning, they announced
plans quote unquote to help cities immigrant communities.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
That seems like corporate speak.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
That seems like they'll provide some resources, they'll provide some help,
they'll provide some assistance, and they'll be sympathetic, and it's
a half measure, but I don't know if it will
satisfy the Latino community, which has been very, very vocal,
increasingly vocal about the absence of the Dodgers on this issue.
(10:02):
And if you know anything about half measures, almost like
you have a room which is maybe thirty feet long,
and you keep going half the distance, half the distance
than half the distance of that, you will never actually
get to the other side. You will never get to
the goal, and you will never satisfy anyone. But the
Dodgers at this point at least are acknowledging that they
(10:22):
have to say something. Whether that's something will be sufficient,
I don't know. It doesn't seem like it's going to
shape up as being sufficient. But at least they are
coming out of their shell and acknowledging the world which
is going on around them. And honestly, it's almost good
news what happened at the stadium because it takes everything
(10:44):
what has been going on in LA and put it
right at their doorstep, literally on their doorstep. They can
no longer look away because these protests and these seeming
raids now ice denied that they were there today and
we find out it was a US Customs and Border agents.
(11:05):
We're a long way from the border, but nonetheless those
are federal agents. They're a part of these raids. We're
in on the doorstep of the Dodgers' parking lot. The
Dodgers can no longer look away. But here is my
biggest question. Are you actually going to pick a side
in this? Are you actually going to take a stance.
(11:27):
I don't get the idea that the Dodgers are, and
maybe they're just trying to prolong this as long as possible,
so hopefully the storm will move on to another city.
I don't think it will. But I have noticed this
is not all the Dodgers fault. I have noticed that
ICE or Customs in border enforcement they're only going after
(11:52):
low hanging fruit. And I've been seeing some published reports
that ICE and whomever, they're not actually going into the
communities looking for gang members.
Speaker 5 (12:01):
Because you were told, I was told, Mark Ronald was told,
Twala was told that they were supposed to go after
the criminals first, and instead they've chosen to go after
the most vulnerable, the people who are easier to run
down in the middle of a home depot, parking lot
or at a school, at a church, and there's something
(12:25):
that should ring not only hollow insincere, but.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
There's something I want to say despicable about that, Because
if it's about ridding this country of the quote unquote worst,
and you're not going after the worst, I don't know,
maybe because they're the most dangerous. Maybe it's easier to
go after moms and children, people at schools, day laborers.
Maybe that's just easier if you're trying to get your
(12:52):
numbers up, but you're not actually solving the problem. It
makes me feel some kind of way because I know
what the campaign rhetoric was. I know you remember what
the campaign rhetoric was. We were told we're going to
start with the worst of the worst, We're going to
get the criminals out of this country. And then you realize, oh,
(13:13):
it's not about the criminals. And then we hear about
those people who are apprehended and taking into custody when
they were at their own asylum or their own legal proceedings,
and the moment that it's dismissed or they walk out
of the building, they're arrested and detained. Right there, people
(13:34):
who are trying to go about it the right way legally,
and then you realize, oh, it's not about the criminals,
it's not about illegal immigration. It's just you don't want
these brown people in this country. That's what it comes
down to. Because the people who are trying to do
it the right way, you're victimizing them.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Yes, that's the correct word.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
You're victimizing them because you're taking advantage of them doing
it the right way. So, in other words, there is
no answer which is going to satisfy this administration when
it relates to brown people in this country. And I
have no problem saying that because you're not going after
the people who've overstayed their visa, you're not going after
(14:16):
the other people who might be quote unquote illegal in
Los Angeles. You're going to home depot. Who do you
think you're going to find at home depot? Who do
you think you're going to find at these schools or churches?
And to say that, no, we're not profiling, No, you
damn sure are profiling because you know exactly what you find.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
You know what you.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Will not find at home depot MS thirteen. You know
what you won't find at home depot. The worst gang
bangers in the city. They're usually not looking for work
as a day laborer. I may be wrong, but I
doubt it. So let's call a thing a thing. If
we're going to be upset or call out the Dodgers
(14:59):
for not making a statement and call out the dishonesty
in which some have approached this, then let's call out
the dishonesty of what we were sold and what is
actually happening now. Home depot and day laborers is not
what we were advertised. Picking up people at their immigration
(15:26):
hearings is not what we were advertised. Only Latinos was
not what we were advertised because we were advertised illegal aliens.
And unless you think illegal alien and Latino is interchangeable,
and it isn't, well, we have another problem that we
(15:48):
have to deal with. There's what we were advertised, what
we were sold, and what we've actually gotten. Do you
actually want legal immigration because it doesn't seem like it.
It seems like you just want those brown mother fathers
out of this country.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
It's later with mo Kelly k If. I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, We're live on YouTube,
and we're live on Facebook. And when we come back,
we're going to tell you about a recent study of
the worst managed cities and the best here in this country.
Some cities might surprise you, and some definitely will not.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Forty am six forties Later with mo Kelly. We're live
on YouTube. We're live on Facebook and Instagram. If you're
just tuning in or struggling to find the Facebook live
at mister bo Kelly, you'll click on my avatar. There
should be a live button there and just click on
and you're right in the show. Wallet Hub release the
(16:57):
study this week ranking the best and world first run
cities in the country, and it won't be any surprise
when I tell you that six of California cities ranked
in the bottom ten. The website took the one hundred
and forty eight most populated cities in the country and
evaluated them across six different categories financial stability, education, health, safety, economy, infrastructure,
(17:24):
and pollution. The average of all those categories were calculated
as quote unquote quality of city services close quote, and
divided by a city's total budget per capita to decide
the overall rankings. So I guess we're going to start
at the bottom.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
Let me just put it this way. It's really bad.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
There were one hundred and forty eight cities surveyed and ranked.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Let's get started.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Let's see who came in dead last at one hundred
and forty eight.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
San Francisco.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Yeah that tracks, Yeah it does. I'm actually surprised it
came in behind the city which came in one hundred
and forty six, oak Town.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Oh, it is weird. Yes, I would have thought Oakland
would have been one forty eight.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Yeah, not but anyhow, you know Tomato tomorrow homing in
at number one hundred and forty one. Fresno, Yeah, one
hundred and forty Long Beach, kind of surprise. I thought
(18:51):
Long Beach would have done better out of the top
one hundred and forty eight.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Also, hope Kiki's not listening. Oh, she's probably listening. She's
probably listening. She's on the way home.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
She heard both, you know, Long Beach and Fresno, and yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
Coming in at one hundred and thirty nine out of
one hundred and forty.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Eight Los Angeles. At least we didn't come in last.
We're in the bottom ten, but we didn't come in
last one hundred and thirty.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Eight out of one forty eight.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Stockton number one hundred and thirty.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
River Tucky.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Number one twenty eight. Baker's Bama comes in in one
twenty eight. Baker's Bama number one twenty seven. Do you
know the way to San Jose? Number one twenty six
(20:01):
of the worst run cities in America? Number one twenty
six out of one hundred and forty eight Sacramento.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Well, who wants to live in Sacramento? Have you ever
been a Sacramento. You're not missing a damn thing.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
There's nothing in Sacramento, nothing worth seeing, not even the
state Capitol one.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
This is kind of surprising.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Anaheim, Anaheim is in the bottom third of the worst
run cities in America according to wallet Hub number one
hundred and eleven. Yes, these are just the California cities.
Santa Anna. I look at first look, I would think
(20:54):
that Santa ana would have been below Anaheim, But not
the case not according to walle hub number one hundred
and seven of the one hundred and forty eight top
cities or bottom cities. However you want to look at
it in America. As far as best run slash worst run.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
San Diego.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Really right, right, it's kind of weird. Yeah, look all
this is arbitrary. Number one oh two, No, no, no, Modesto.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
Modesto is above San Diego. Modesto's better run than San Diego.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
No no, no, uh uh no.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Number ninety three.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Fremont. I guess you're not working with a lot in Fremont.
And the top ranked California city of the best run
slash worst run cities in America according to wallet hub,
of the top of one forty eight, coming in at
number thirty four is.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
How did you Beach?
Speaker 3 (22:17):
So makes sense? Yeah, that makes sense?
Speaker 2 (22:19):
All right?
Speaker 1 (22:19):
Here the top ten, real quick of the best run
cities in America. Here we go, Number ten, Mark, this
is for you, Fort Wayne, Indiana.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
My gotters. No one has to live there, but I
guess it's well run.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
This is very sus. Number nine Virginia Beach, Virginia. I
went there a couple of times in college, but that
was like the late eighties.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
That's where the woman who been into the McDonald's breakfast
in which just got a big settlement. Oh really, yeah,
must contribute to the to their ranking.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
Okay, Number eight of the best run cities in the Country, Lincoln, Nebraska.
Come on, well, it might be.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
The best run.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
I mean you're not dealing with anyone, know, a large population,
that's for sure. Population what forty five? Number seven Christy
Noman approves, Sioux Fall, South Dakota.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
They're picking areas where you'd have to put up a
bear cam on a tree to find out if anything's
going on.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
Number six of the best run cities in the United States.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Dover, Delaware. Never been anyone, anyone Euler Huller, Okay. Number
five Nashua, New Hampshire. I'll take your word for no
one's moving there. These are the fine folks at wallet Hub. Yeah,
(24:03):
this together, fine folks. I mean it's a great advertisement
for them. They got a seven minute commercial out of us.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I don't know what they really do.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
I don't know they they provide the biggest yeah financer,
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Someone Google even, I don't know what it does.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Number four, I mean with a healthy dose of KKK Boise,
Idaho checks it at number four Wow wealth, Yeah, best militias.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
Oh, we're not done yet.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Number three you'll see why. Manchester, New Hampshire, I got
nothing ever been Yeah, never going. Number two of the
best run cities in the United States according to wallet hub,
(24:57):
and also the best I can't say that on the air.
Well put it this way, Nampa, Idaho. Okay, these are
the whitest cities, aren't they. I can say they they
may be. I'm quite sure that, you know, the KKK
per capita is higher than most starting to sway that
well yeah, yeah, and coming in number one. The best
(25:18):
run city in the United States according to wallet hub, Provo, Utah,
where nobody's having any sex, no one's drinking. Well, at
(25:42):
least I should say no, you know, unmarried sex. Yeah,
these are.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
These cities most likely to find somebody with a gun
rack in their truck.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
No, no, no, no, no, because there are probably some
Southern cities that will be on this list.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
All right.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
You know, I don't know if they have as many
guns as let's say, uh, Birmingham out Obama.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
I think I'm moving wallet hub down on my list
of all time favorite hubs.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Did anyone look up wallet Hub as far as what
they actually do? Daniel's got it on the screen. I
think he's trying to show it to the moment egos.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
It's too small. I can't read that.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Not for us I think for them, but oh okay,
I can't. Credit cards, loans, credit scores, and more. Yeah,
so it's like credit carma. Okay, but that's weird that
they do so many lists. Let me tell you how
this business works. Okay, they put out these BS lists.
We'll never agree with them, we'll poke all holes in them,
(26:35):
but we keep talking about them. And we mentioned wallet
hub how many times in this segment. They're the variety
of hubs. That's an app comparison not to be taken seriously.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
It's Late with mo Kelly.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
We're live on Facebook for the first time tonight at
mister mo Kelly. We're still live on YouTube, We're still
live everywhere, the iHeartRadio app and Instagram as well.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
We're just everywhere.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
You're listening to Later with mo kel on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
AM six forty is Later with mo Kelly. We're live everywhere.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
We're live on Instagram, we're live on YouTube, and now
we're live on Facebook at mister mo' kelly. You can
check out the show just about wherever your most comfortable
finding it.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
You can do it on your phone, you can cast
it to your TV.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
And I was talking to Daniel, our video technical director,
and looking at the stats, said some sixteen percent of
all of our viewers watch our show on a conventional TV.
Now I'm not sure whether that's casting it from your
phone or just bring it up on your smart TV
where you have the YouTube app, but people are tuning
(27:44):
in for more than thirty minutes at a time on average, and.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
We appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
We are growing by leaps and bounds, and it's because
that you have supported us every step of the way.
So that's why we roll it out to another platform
we can do that and it's oh and by the way,
it's Eddie Murphy Watch day twenty two. So the more
people we have watching and the different platforms that we
have that are available for people to tune in, it
(28:11):
makes it even more attractive to hopefully to get Eddie
on this show.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
What more piece of news.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Before we go excuse me, before we go to the break,
and also in the hour we have Marsha Caru're coming
up at the top of the hour. You may not
know that there is a new study using satellite images
from NASA to give you some perspective of how massive.
What I'm about to tell you is a new study
using satellite images from NASA shows this environmental crisis at
(28:44):
the Tijuana San Diego border.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
It can be seen from space and.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
The images show a wastewater plume just off Imperial Beach.
If you're from the area down in San Diego, you
know exactly where I'm talking about, Imperial Beach, like always clothes.
But this wastewater plume is made up of toxic wastewater.
We've talked about it, and it's pollution from untreated sewage,
(29:11):
raw sewage that's flowing into the Tijuana and Pacific Ocean
for years. You can now see it from space. But
this is a double emergency because when you talk about
sewage usually you're only talking about it from its liquid form.
But there's also an issue now with toxic gases coming
(29:33):
from it, and it is poisoning residents and has been
poisoning residents for years, and it's obviously about five years so,
and it's prompted an indefinite closure of the beach. On
the worst days, as we're told, the contaminated flows could
reach hundreds of millions of gallons hundreds of millions of
(29:57):
gallons each day. And I was telling you about toxic gases.
It's not just in the water anymore. You have to
also consider the bacteria, the viruses, the toxic gases which
are also connected to this.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
What is it he stepping up?
Speaker 2 (30:16):
What is it?
Speaker 3 (30:17):
I always say, just stay your ass out of the water,
Just don't go in the water. This is what we know, Okay,
this is only what we know of. What about the
stuff we don't know?
Speaker 1 (30:26):
Do you actually think we're getting an accurate reading of
the millions of gallons of raw sewage which are pouring
into Imperial Beach? No, But I just I just always
love like if you take like Manhattan Hermosa for example, Oh,
after Hermosa, You're fine, that's where it stops, right, right,
But it seems after a certain point. When was the
(30:46):
last time we had any good news about a beach?
That's a good point.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
Yeah, just what.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
I don't remember Mark Ronner saying, hey, you know what,
all the beaches are clean today. Go ahead and shake
your ass in the surf. I don't ever remember him
saying anything even approaching that. He has never said bacteria
levels have returned to normal, enjoy your weekend.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Frolicking in the surf.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
He has never said anything approaching that unlikely at this point,
don't you think. But I usually you think, okay, we
have like we used to have these like small alerts,
but then you get it all clear. You know, a
small alert you got to keep kids inside, can't go
outside to play because small can get into the lungs.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
Air quality, but then it would tell you air quality
is better.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
I don't remember getting any type of notification that water
qualities better. Are like what do they call it? The
energy alert during the summer the scene and they say, okay,
now we're well, yeah, no, you don't have to worry
about these rolling blackouts or anything. We're back in the
green zone.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Okay, So do you want like a baby ruth alert
look like caddy shack?
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Remember we had the terror alerts.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
I could never figured out a we orange or red
or you know, it's just but we knew that once
it was in a certain range, it was good again,
and they would tell us. But we never hear about
the ocean, and so I have to assume it's always bad.
That's the point. It's always freaking bad. There's raw sewage everywhere,
there's toxic algae everywhere all the time, waste water everywhere,
(32:15):
and there's never any note from you, Mark Runner in
the CAFI twenty four hour newsroom.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
That is getting any better.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
I take full responsibility for the filth and the water.
Speaker 3 (32:26):
And people want to say La has the best beaches.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
No it doesn't. No, it doesn't not even close, not
even close. You could not pay me to get in
one of our in the ocean, in one of our beaches. Look,
God love Jokwan and Matt money Smith who get out
there every single day and serf okay, but I would
not recommend it for anyone.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Those are the thrill seekers going out there and dodging
the floaties.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
Well not on that.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
Remember when Joquan came out and said, oh, yeah, I've
been stung by a manta, you know, a shark bit
off my arm the other day.
Speaker 3 (32:59):
It's like powers through man.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Yes, the jellyfish stung her fifty five times one time
she went out. The first time I get stung by
jellyfish is the last time. Like, I'm out, I'm out. Look,
I don't want anything to even like graze me. And
you're saying something out there could sting me, like.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Real, real, real hard. That was Joe Kwan able to
explain to you why this is fun. She's said to
me that it's a great workout. I guess she's a
bit of a thrill seeker. This is an adrenaline rush.
I assume I've never served.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
I only boogiey board it, and that was in my
youth till we're talking forty years ago. I don't have
any a recent memory of good times in the ocean.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
You know, I got a stationary bike on the back porch,
and I've never been stung by anything while I was
using it.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
Not even once, Not even a bee or have you.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
Uh, maybe a mosquito here and there during the summer,
but that was more off a bite than a sting.
No jellyfish.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
Okay, So the beach, potion water, it's dirty, Stay out
of it. And next week when we talk about it,
it'll be the same. It's later with mo Kelly k IF.
I am six forty. We're live on YouTube, Instagram and
also Facebook at mister bo Kelly, and we're live everywhere
on the iHeartRadio.
Speaker 4 (34:13):
App as I and kost HD two Los Angeles, Orange County.
Speaker 3 (34:20):
More stimulating talk
