If I am six forty, Let's get to it on
Later with mo Kelly, The Viral Load with Tiffany Hobbs.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Good Evening.
Speaker 5 (00:42):
This week, we have four stories that have happened anywhere
between one year ago and three years ago, and they're
all going viral this week because of the power of
the Internet and the Internet's algorithm. The first story involves
a viral meme, and a meme is essentially a picture
(01:03):
that may have words on it, some sort of graphic
and image, and it is intended to be shared. Well,
this viral meme first was shared in twenty twenty one,
and you'll see it now because it's very popular. And
the reason that I'm talking about it is not due
to necessarily the validity of the meme, but why it's
(01:26):
being shared now. So, in twenty twenty one, this meme
was shared giving information about what to do if you're lost,
So in the event of an emergency or some sort
of just happenstance, you're lost while you're hiking, or you're
lost out on some sort of excursion. It encourages people
(01:47):
to use their cell phones to record a voicemail message,
a greeting or in a way message essentially that your
then callers would call into and be a able to
locate you because in that voicemail message, you've then left
information about your last known whereabouts.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
That way you can be tracked.
Speaker 5 (02:10):
And this was on a meme that was shared far
and wide millions of times all across social media. Well
that was twenty twenty one. Today, three years later, there
has been a huge dispute of that information, and it's
led by a professional rescue organization called the Alpine Rescue
(02:32):
Team that says through their own post that this viral
meme in twenty twenty one is absolutely wrong and that
in fact, the information that's being shared will not only
mislead you, but potentially increase the danger that you're already in.
Interesting here's how they say that advising people to use
(02:55):
their voicemailed and change that information when lost doesn't really
take into account cell phone battery or if your cell
phone ends up dying.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Because go ahead, moory, I disagree because if you have
any bit of signal, yes you would call for help,
but you may not have to.
Speaker 6 (03:16):
The dying battery thing.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
You may not have enough battery to have a long
conversation or repeated attempts. But if you can leave that
one message, that will still stay out there, assuming you
have any type of signal.
Speaker 6 (03:29):
Of course, this is all dependent on whether you have
a signal.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
And that's what the Alpine Rescue Team is asserting that
in the event that you're lost, you may not have
a signal.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
So trying to change your voicemail makes.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
Sense, may not necessarily work for you, and you might
think that you've done something when in fact you haven't.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
Yeah, I'm trying everything.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
You're going to try everything, which makes sense. But the
Alpine Rescue Team's objective is to arm people with information
that they feel is in fact useful. So they're saying,
instead of looking at this meme that is circulating again
in twenty twenty four, with information, do a few things.
If your battery is low, don't waste its power by
(04:10):
calling your voicemail. Call a relative or friend of course,
or of course nine to one one, that is, assuming
you have cell phone service. They also say, if you
can't call and your signal is weak, send a text,
because often text messages will repeat themselves. They'll try to
send even when you put your phone away, because that's
(04:33):
just the way in which texts service up work.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
Okay, let me be contrarian here. I know enough about
cell phones.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Even though you try to send a text, if it
does not go through, it's going to keep trying and
it's going to further deplete your battery. It really does
deplete your battery quicker when it's trying to resend the
text over and over and over again.
Speaker 6 (04:52):
It's something else something people need to also consider.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
And they do note that and they have other options.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
Another one they say is stay put, don't try and
go find a place to find service. Stay where you
have broken down or where you've gotten lost. That way
people can try and find you where again the last
known ping from your cell phone signal may have tracked.
And then, of course, maximize your battery life. Try to
turn off anything that you don't need to use, and
(05:18):
don't use your phone for unnecessary things like playing games
or trying to busy yourselves. So it just really speaks
again to how something can come back years later. Go
viral again, and how after that new viral sensation basically
has peaked or shown itself, you might have dissenters. You
might have people who are in fact contrariant, and they
(05:41):
come out with new information to refute or validate the
existing meme.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Well, I'm not going to try to get lost to
prove anyone right or wrong, So I'll just go ahead
and stay my ass in an area where I'm not
likely to get lost.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
Really quick, we're gonna move to a story that's a
little bit ahead in our stack, because the story before
this comes with audio.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
So there's a.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
TikTok video about a woman who is mourning her husband's death.
That video went viral a little while ago, a few
weeks ago. But what's happening now is that after that
original video was posted about this young mother mourning the
sudden death of her husband. She was twenty eight, he
was thirty one, the woman the widow in question, has
(06:24):
come out and said that basically she's going to continue
living her life. And quote, people were asking her, first,
why are you, why are you not really why are
you not so sad? Why are you just seeming to
go on with your life? She said, quote because he's
not my God, because one guy dying isn't going to
(06:46):
ruin the rest of my life. And that quote, that
post from this young widow who is mourning her husband's death,
has gone viral, as you can imagine, with people being
very critic some feeling that it's again valid, and some
feeling that it might be piling on a bit too
much because of how she is managing the death of
(07:09):
her husband.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
It really does again speak to.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
Of course, the subjectivity of mourning. I know we did
just speak and have you had that wonderful segment in
the previous segment about assisted suicide. This isn't that, but
it definitely deals with death, and so I found that
it was relevant, so I wanted to skip to it.
She's going viral again because people are basically projecting their
(07:36):
ideas of what mourning should entail upon her, and she
is fighting back and refuting and saying that people are
in her face saying what she's supposed to do and
what she should expect.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
But no, this is her.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
Life and she is living her life by her standards,
which means that she's not going to sit around mourning
her husband because quote, he's one guy and one guy
dying isn't going to ruin the rest of her life,
and she posted that on a TikTok video.
Speaker 6 (08:05):
I don't know what to say about that.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
I have some misgivings about one posting it too, getting
your butt on your shoulders when people, I would say,
rightfully so question your logic and why you posted it,
how you feel about it, how dismissive you are in
posting it.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Absolutely.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
All I know is she's lucky that we got to
go to a break because I was getting ready to
cuss her out too. It's Lad with mo Kelly. The
second half of the Viral Load will be up in
just a moment.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.

Room Mote with Timpany Live on camp Lisa Wi mo
o Kelly.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
She'll talk about the time this on social media. Room
Alone with Timpany.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Hubs Can mo Kelly, Tivity Hobbes The Viral Load Part two.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
Okay, So this is a truly heartwarming story. Thanks to
the kindness of a stranger, a woman is now able
to hear the voice of her deceased mother for the
first time in twenty five years and this story actually
broke a year plus ago and it is back, which
(09:25):
is what I started off by saying, these are stories
that we are revisiting essentially because they're going viral for
new reasons. Well, in this case, the young woman Hannah
and Neder, always treasured the photos that she had of
her mom, and her mom died in nineteen ninety five
at the age of thirty five due to suicide.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
Her mother did in fact take her own life.
Speaker 5 (09:47):
At the time, Hannah Nier was eleven years old and
after her mother passed away, all she had were the pictures.
She didn't have any recollection of her voice in recorded form.
When she got older, she started to lose what her
mother's voice sounded like. Well, out of the blue, about
(10:07):
a year ago, Hannah got a Facebook message from a
stranger and this woman the stranger identified herself as Valerie Bradshaw,
who said that she had found in her own possession
a cassette tape, an old school cassette tape in her
home in Sussex, England. Now, the decade's old tape actually
(10:29):
contained content, including an interview from Hannah Neder's mother, Lawrence.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
The woman The stranger was a teacher.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
At the time and had conducted the interview back in
ninety four for her dissertation and had interviewed Hannah Nier's mother, Lawrence,
because she felt that she could contribute to that dissertation. Well,
all these years later, the woman found that, you know,
this tape was just again collecting dust and she wanted
(10:59):
to maybe see if the person was still alive. So
she went on social media. She went on Facebook looking
for Lawrence. This woman named Lawrence and Bradshaw. The stranger,
the kind stranger, was able to make contact with Hannah
and Niter on Facebook through the virility of the posts.
(11:21):
The post caught fire and people shared them far and wide,
and because of that it did make its way to
Lawrence's daughter, Hannah Nitter. So now we're talking about this
because even though this happened a year ago, it is
going viral where that Hannah and Niter has been gifted
this cassette tape with her mother's voice and for the
(11:42):
first time again since she was eleven years old twenty
five years ago when her mother took her life, she
was able to hear her mother in full continuity, just
having conversations and Hannah and Niter said that the best
thing about hearing her mom was her laugh. She had
forgotten that laugh and that it was back so interesting.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
I am completely different. I remember all the voices. I
remember obviously my father's voice. I remember all my grandparents' voices.
My mother's father passed in nineteen eighty six. I remember
his voice like it was just yesterday. Maybe because I'm
musically inclined and sounds ring very specific in my mind.
Speaker 6 (12:27):
That's something I don't lose.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
I find myself having difficulty remembering what certain people looked like,
more so than the sound of their voice. I remember
all my grandparents, the three that i'd met, one passed
before I was born. I remember all their voices, and
that's something that I find when I hear that story.
Like my wife, she lost her mother about six months
(12:50):
after I lost my father, and she was desperate to
find copies of her mother's voice.
Speaker 7 (12:57):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
But for me, that has never been a thing, always
been intriguing to me because that's something I never had
to worry about losing.
Speaker 5 (13:05):
Yeah, And I don't think that this woman, Hannah Nier,
had really took it into account until she was gifted
the voice of her mother. But now that she has it,
she treasures it and she says that she listens to
it and she is able to reminisce.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
So it's a beautiful story.
Speaker 6 (13:19):
It is.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
And I know the power of that of memories just
like that, very very powerful.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Absolutely.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
The next story and last story not so beautiful. It
involves a plane, an iPhone charger, theft, and TikTok. And
before we get into it, we just I'll give you
a quick little synopsis.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
An Apple charger was stolen.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
Good for it was all recorded and uploaded to TikTok,
which produced this wonderful sound bite.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Hit it Steph, excuse me?
Speaker 7 (13:49):
Did you.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
Why would you take my charger?
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Because we got off the flight?
Speaker 6 (13:54):
Yeah, but my charger, that's my charger. Why would you
take it?
Speaker 7 (13:57):
So?
Speaker 6 (13:57):
Why would you take it?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Though?
Speaker 6 (13:58):
Without permission?
Speaker 4 (13:59):
Nobody was on the flight.
Speaker 6 (14:00):
But that's my larger. Hey, we're getting it back, okay.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Can I don't steal things? You can't take things, but
I'll ask.
Speaker 6 (14:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
Look, the conversation would not have lasted that long. It
would have been give me my mother father charger now.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
And that's it.
Speaker 6 (14:21):
That's the end of the discussion.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
That's it.
Speaker 6 (14:23):
Well, give me just a second.
Speaker 5 (14:25):
No, no, no, and she says, well you left it,
so so what basically dot dot dot, And as you heard,
they go back and forth and the video continues on
for a bit. Other people kind of intervene and tell
both sides to calm down. The man eventually does get
his chargerer back.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
His name is Ed.
Speaker 5 (14:42):
She does kind of give it to him, she kind
of dangles it in front of him, and he uploaded
the footage to TikTok. He says, TikTok's gonna make you famous.
In fact, that's what happened. This happened a year ago,
and it's making its rounds now on the viral circuit,
and of course because people are seeing it, the young
woman Vanessa Clover took to her own TikTok to offer
(15:06):
an explanation.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Too late her side, it's too late.
Speaker 5 (15:09):
And then her explanation was encountered by Ed coming back
again and saying, you.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Know, I'm doubling down. This is what happened.
Speaker 5 (15:17):
And then fourth video was released with Vanessa again coming
back and saying, you know what, we all just should
have calmed down, and yeah there's.
Speaker 6 (15:28):
Only once eh, hey, we that's like you calmed down.
Let's sell someone Jack.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
You took your car and you have it on that person, like, hey,
give me my car back. Hey, why don't we just
all calm down, take a breath. Okay, I just need
it for a minute. I'm just running to the store.
I'm going to seven eleven.
Speaker 6 (15:45):
I'll be right back.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (15:47):
Okay, there's a metro buss over there. Okay, you'll be fine.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
Go hijack that. That's it. That's all we have. That's enough.
Speaker 6 (15:55):
That was a lot for a viral load.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
You're listening too later with Kelly on Demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
And I am a confirmed Halle Berry fan. Just to reset,
I had met her any number of times. Her second husband, Yeah,
second husband, Eric Guney, Vocal Artists, good friend of mine.
He was on Warner Brothers Records. I was working in
Warner Brothers Records when they first started dating. Hollywould come
(16:24):
by all the time, so we had a chance to
see her, hang out with her for over the period
of months. Even up there was one night if you
if you ever see a picture of me and Halle
not name dropping or humble bragging, I'm just giving you context.
It was taken at her house because you know, we
(16:44):
would spend so much time around her, so I have
a degree of a familiarity with who she was, at
least back then, and one of the nicest people you
will ever want to meet. She's very open, she is
very giving, she's very sincere. You know, met her mother.
And I'll tell this one little story very quickly, and
(17:05):
Tiffany will probably get a kick out of this. Do
you remember when she had this car accident?
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Yes, I do.
Speaker 4 (17:12):
When I went to her house and I she was
so open because she was going through it at that time.
To give you time, she was very willing to open
up and tell me her side of that introduced me
to her mother. She's just a very open and giving person,
and I think to a fault and people use that
against her, say that all to say. When I saw
(17:33):
this revelation, she is again offering a lot of information,
and I say, yeah, if you know her, if you've
ever been around her, that's who she is.
Speaker 6 (17:44):
She's very genuine and she opened up in.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Recently talking about what she was doing as a young
actress in the industry. She's fifty eight now and she
made her film debut back in ninth ninety one in
the Spike Lee movie Jungle Fever, and she was playing
the girlfriend, the drug addicted girlfriend opposite of Samuel L.
Speaker 6 (18:09):
Jackson who was playing Gator.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
If you want to look it up, at the very compelling,
believable drug scenes. And she made it clear that she
had no experience with drug use, and she had grown
up in an environment where there were no narcotics, so
it was completely foreign to her. But in a recent interview,
she told that in the movie nineteen ninety five movie
(18:35):
Losing Isaiah, where she also plays someone else who was
drug addicted, she wanted to make sure that she had
a reference point for playing that character, and she actually
went to the links of trying crack and visiting multiple crackhouses.
Speaker 6 (18:56):
Damn.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
Now there's method acting, and there's method acting. It makes sense,
if only because Halle Berry has been very serious, always
been very serious about her acting. And even though people
may try to take shots at her for her acting
or her wigs or her movies over the years, she
(19:20):
has always been very serious about her craft. If you're
going to give her any credit, give her credit for that.
And I was talking about, you know, I've been around
her any number of times it's like I didn't know that,
and obviously not a lot of people knew that, and
she didn't feel comfortable with sharing that publicly and to
find out.
Speaker 6 (19:41):
I just.
Speaker 4 (19:43):
Look, there's certain things that I would do for money.
There are a lot of things I would not do
for money. I'll give you a perfect example. If someone said, Mo,
we got this perfect role for you and you're going
to do this, that and the other, but you have
to say the N word. I would not do the
role ever, under any circumstances. And that's a true story.
(20:06):
Working in this business, you always have to have the
internal dialogue with yourself about what you're willing to do
and what you're not willing to do to either become famous,
become recognized, or become wealthy. And for a while I
was dabbling with acting, so I kind of know you
still have to have that conversation and to I've never
(20:29):
done any drugs, not any hard drugs. I've had maybe
half of a marijuana joint and that was with a
coke can if you know how that works, and.
Speaker 6 (20:41):
Half of an edible in my life, that's it. Never done.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Molly never done ecstasy, sure as hell, would never ever
consider doing crack for the sake of a role.
Speaker 7 (20:53):
I think when Lee Strasberg created method acting, he didn't
want the emphasis to be on the first syllable come on,
come on, I'm geared to him, guarant to him.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
Well wait, he wasn't even thinking he was going to
be funny tonight. It's a little slow.
Speaker 7 (21:08):
What if you were offered a high paying feature film
role that involved you having a love scene with Foosh?
Speaker 6 (21:16):
No, you know what? In fact, I probably wouldn't do.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
I wouldn't be a good actor because I have too
many hang ups and the whole idea of just doing
I know it's acting everything, but I don't think I
could pull off certain things, like, for example, if they
had hired me, and I'm being really serious and transparent,
if they hired me for Jake Jillenhall's role and broke Back.
Speaker 6 (21:36):
Mountain, I don't. I couldn't pull it off. I don't.
I couldn't pull it off.
Speaker 7 (21:41):
They're just Heath Ledger wasn't your type.
Speaker 6 (21:45):
Yeah, Heath Ledger wasn't my type.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
I'm saying there's certain roles I don't think I can
be authentic enough.
Speaker 6 (21:51):
You and Sinatra yep. Now, And also do it.
Speaker 4 (21:55):
Look, if I were ever to pop up in a movie,
it would probably be a romantic comedy or an action movie.
Speaker 6 (22:03):
I don't have a lot of range. That's part of it.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
It's not going to be in a full blown love
story of any kind.
Speaker 7 (22:10):
So an action movie, then you fancy yourself an action star.
Like yes, walking away from an explosion in slow motions
flowing behind me?
Speaker 6 (22:18):
That movie.
Speaker 7 (22:18):
I could see that, Yes, Like you're with your partner
in a car and the two of you look at
each other and.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
Go, ah, something like that.
Speaker 4 (22:26):
Okay, something like that, you know, the slow motion, the
car is going over the jump and everything, all of that.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
That that's me, That's who I am. We can see that, Yes, Okay.
Speaker 4 (22:35):
But look, I'm not gonna do the whole method acting
thing and go to a place which is just not
in me. I can't pull it off. That's why I
probably never could be all that good at acting. But
oh and also with halle Berry, going back to her,
she said that she went days without brushing her teeth
or bathing to get in the mindset of someone who
(22:58):
is only obsessed with drugs and would forsake everything else.
Speaker 6 (23:03):
You know, if you.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
Remember, remember I said, I couldn't even deal with like
going into the forest and being a survivalist or and
I have trouble watching movies where I can see, like
we were talking about the rever Ridge movies, like that
guy hadn't have a shower in terms of his character.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
Throughout the whole movie.
Speaker 4 (23:21):
And I was thinking, throughout the whole movie on Netflix,
this guy hasn't even.
Speaker 6 (23:25):
Had a shower.
Speaker 4 (23:26):
I could not even method act not taking a shower
or brushing my teeth for.
Speaker 6 (23:32):
Three four days.
Speaker 7 (23:33):
I can see that there's an apocryphal story I don't
know if it's true or not about the shooting of
Marathon Man the Dustin Hoffman movie where he tries to
get in character by running around the park and being
all out of breath for a scene and Laurence Olivier
tells him, my boy, instead, why don't you just try acting?
Speaker 4 (23:49):
Yeah, yeah, it's true, but it doesn't work for everyone.
And I can respect those actors who go to such
links Like I hear stories about Johnny Depp. He will
stay in character throughout the entirety of a movie. Shoot,
don't call him by his real name. Wonderful, great. I'm
just not built that way. And going back to Holly Berry,
(24:11):
I have a newfound respect for her and dedication to
her craft. I'm always of the opinion be a student
of your craft, be dedicated to your craft. They're just
certain lines I'm just not going to cross. I'm not
gonna do it. So you don't have to worry about
me ending up in Rambo eight to some soldier out
in the bush for a week.
Speaker 6 (24:30):
You will not find me in that role. Okay.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
No bug eating no, No, like they had in Rebel Ridge.
That was bug eating and stuff. No, your crickets aren't
so bad. Look true story. Tawala can eat the crickets.
I'm not eating that stuff.
Speaker 6 (24:46):
I'm not.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
There's not enough money out there, and no Broke Back
Mountain two, well at least not starring me. Now you okay,
you know if you could be Jake Jillen Hall and
you a Heath Ledger, he's unfortunately no longer with us.
Speaker 7 (25:00):
But I don't have the same hang ups as you.
So if if it pays, well put me down so
you get him on the phone, then he probably says
the N word too. See you asked for that? Did
you just call me a cracker? I swear I heard that.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
See see that's how it starts. That was Mark replay
the tame said Mark Ronner. I do not condone all
type of language.
Speaker 4 (25:25):
I know that I don't use that type of language,
either on the air or in my private life.
Speaker 6 (25:30):
It's not in my language or lexicon. That was Mark Ronner.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Please send all hate mail to at Mark Runner on
any and all social media.
Speaker 7 (25:39):
At mister mo Kelly, that all comes to me.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
KIM six forty. We are live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app.
You you feel pretty good.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
About yourself, don't you, Mark, I need a minute.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
Before we get out of here, have to remind you
a couple of things. It's Halloween time at the Disneyland Resort.
Is Halloween time and KFI AM six forty wants to
give you a chance to experience the frightful, fun happiest
Halloween has brought fiendishly tasty treats, thrills for one and all,
and boot tifold decor to both Disney California Adventure Park
(26:19):
and Disneyland Park, going on now through Halloween October thirty. First,
keep listening to KFI and keep listening to Later with
mo Kelly. Most importantly for your chance to win a
four pack of one day one park tickets to the
Disneyland Resort.
Speaker 6 (26:35):
I can't make it any more obvious than that.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Keep listening to Later with mo Kelly for your chance
to win a four pack of one day one park
tickets to the Disneyland Resort. And before we get out
of here, I have a lot of fun with Mark Ronner.
And for those who may not know or understand, are
weird dynamic. I love this man like a of an
(27:00):
at natural born brother.
Speaker 6 (27:02):
Don't you make me cry? I'm watching it cry. I'm
just saying, you.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
Know, we have a weird on air relationship that you
don't understand unless you knew us off air. I mentioned
that because the other night I was texting you it
was well after midnight, because I want to make sure
you're off I believe. And it was a continuation of
a conversation where I've said on air, I like to
(27:26):
go back and rewatch movies from my childhood.
Speaker 7 (27:30):
Oh, yeah, you always see things differently. Yeah, And I
was watching Pigs.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
We had an on air conversation about the nineteen sixty
eight version of the movie, the original version of The
Thomas Crown Affair masterpiece with and I was watching it
looking at Steve McQueen through very different eyes. My father
introduced me to Steve McQueen with the movie Bullet.
Speaker 7 (27:55):
You could do a lot worse than that. I tell
you that. What a great movie to see with your dad.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
Enviously, no great and it obviously if you know anything
about car chases, and if you love anything about a
good car chase, that was the seminal car chase of
all car chases, all.
Speaker 6 (28:12):
Top ten easily.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
All traces back to that point is because I was
exposed to Steve McQueen through that movie.
Speaker 6 (28:19):
It got me interested in seeing his other movies.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Yes, I saw The Thomas Crown Affair as a kid,
but to watch it again as an adult with a
greater appreciation of cinema, a greater appreciation of subtlety of acting,
and also i'll say filming techniques. This movie by Norman
Jewison was so damn good. I don't think it will
(28:45):
ever get its due acclaim from the way it will shot,
the double box, to the different letterboxes, to even the
score with Michelle LaGrand. If you know the movie there
is this chess scene which is so beautifully shot, and
(29:07):
the music score underneath it is so gorgeous. If you
do nothing else tonight, go to YouTube and look up
the chess game Thomas Crown Affair, and you'll be able
to see what I saw. Watch the whole scene, how
it lays out. It is subtle and on the nose
(29:29):
at the same time, there's a lot of metaphor going on.
There a lot of innu window going on. But listen
to how the music score makes that scene perfect.
Speaker 7 (29:40):
You're not touching me with your quote, Bishop, Okay, no, no,
but the rook was sticking out now, Jewison. I went
on right after that, or at least not long after that,
to do rollerball.
Speaker 6 (29:51):
What a run that guy had.
Speaker 4 (29:52):
Oh my goodness, And I was looking up. He died
relatively recently. I want to think, like maybe in the
past five years or so. Oh I didn't realize that
if I'm not, or maybe that was michell Legrand. But
you know, I'm like my own DVD add on where
I'll watch a movie and I'm googling the actors and
the people connected to it to get background information and
(30:12):
see where they are now.
Speaker 6 (30:13):
See if they're still living. Maybe find something else.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
I didn't know about the movie, so I had a
good time and I was texting you back and forth
about the majesty.
Speaker 6 (30:22):
Of that movie.
Speaker 4 (30:24):
I so much more appreciate that movie now, and no disrespect,
no disrespect to Pierce Brosnen, but I'm sorry he could
not fill up the screen in the same way that
Steve McQueen did. He was fabulous, and he did it
with virtually nothing because you didn't have the special effects
and the filming tricks that they had back then.
Speaker 7 (30:47):
Yeah, and I mentioned this to you subsequently, which is
that the Pierce Brosnan version of that movie is very respectable,
and it's very well made, and he's good in it.
But McQueen had something a little dangerous about him that
Brosenan has never had. Brosnan's an attractive man, and like
a former male model or whatever the hell he is,
McQueen had a little rough trade side to him that
(31:08):
makes you understand why the female investigator character in that
movie could do something so stupid and fall for him.
Speaker 4 (31:15):
But you had this, He had the screen appeal where
you literally couldn't keep your eyes off of him.
Speaker 7 (31:21):
And you say you won't be in Broke Back Mountain sequel.
Let's get it's gotta be one of the other.
Speaker 6 (31:28):
Okay, I didn't say I wanted to sleep with them.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
I'm saying that he was so compelling and if you
know the movie, there are a lot of close ups
of his eyes. He has piercing blue eyes and you
could see the subtleties in his acting, eye twitches, darting
of the eyes.
Speaker 6 (31:46):
It's like, goss, this guy was so damn good.
Speaker 7 (31:49):
He really was, and that movie played to his strengths.
He was an actor, like we've used the term limited range,
and that was a good role for him. My favorite
Stephen Queen role is the Getaway. You've seen the GHETA.
I need to see that one again. Maybe i'll see
it tonight. Yeah, I mean there's parts of the Getaway
that probably wouldn't fly these days very much A think
of its time.
Speaker 6 (32:08):
Sam peckin Palm movie that is really good.
Speaker 4 (32:11):
So if you're listening right now, your homework assignment is
to go Google or go to YouTube. Look up the
Chess game, the Thomas Crown Affair. You'll thank me for
it after it. KFI AM six forty We're live everywhere

The Viral.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Viral Load, Viral Load, the Viral Load, Arlimney.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
If I am six forty, Let's get to it on
Later with mo Kelly, The Viral Load with Tiffany Hobbs.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Good Evening.
Speaker 5 (00:42):
This week, we have four stories that have happened anywhere
between one year ago and three years ago, and they're
all going viral this week because of the power of
the Internet and the Internet's algorithm. The first story involves
a viral meme, and a meme is essentially a picture
(01:03):
that may have words on it, some sort of graphic
and image, and it is intended to be shared. Well,
this viral meme first was shared in twenty twenty one,
and you'll see it now because it's very popular. And
the reason that I'm talking about it is not due
to necessarily the validity of the meme, but why it's
(01:26):
being shared now. So, in twenty twenty one, this meme
was shared giving information about what to do if you're lost,
So in the event of an emergency or some sort
of just happenstance, you're lost while you're hiking, or you're
lost out on some sort of excursion. It encourages people
(01:47):
to use their cell phones to record a voicemail message,
a greeting or in a way message essentially that your
then callers would call into and be a able to
locate you because in that voicemail message, you've then left
information about your last known whereabouts.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
That way you can be tracked.
Speaker 5 (02:10):
And this was on a meme that was shared far
and wide millions of times all across social media. Well
that was twenty twenty one. Today, three years later, there
has been a huge dispute of that information, and it's
led by a professional rescue organization called the Alpine Rescue
(02:32):
Team that says through their own post that this viral
meme in twenty twenty one is absolutely wrong and that
in fact, the information that's being shared will not only
mislead you, but potentially increase the danger that you're already in.
Interesting here's how they say that advising people to use
(02:55):
their voicemailed and change that information when lost doesn't really
take into account cell phone battery or if your cell
phone ends up dying.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Because go ahead, moory, I disagree because if you have
any bit of signal, yes you would call for help,
but you may not have to.
Speaker 6 (03:16):
The dying battery thing.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
You may not have enough battery to have a long
conversation or repeated attempts. But if you can leave that
one message, that will still stay out there, assuming you
have any type of signal.
Speaker 6 (03:29):
Of course, this is all dependent on whether you have
a signal.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
And that's what the Alpine Rescue Team is asserting that
in the event that you're lost, you may not have
a signal.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
So trying to change your voicemail makes.
Speaker 5 (03:42):
Sense, may not necessarily work for you, and you might
think that you've done something when in fact you haven't.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
Yeah, I'm trying everything.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
You're going to try everything, which makes sense. But the
Alpine Rescue Team's objective is to arm people with information
that they feel is in fact useful. So they're saying,
instead of looking at this meme that is circulating again
in twenty twenty four, with information, do a few things.
If your battery is low, don't waste its power by
(04:10):
calling your voicemail. Call a relative or friend of course,
or of course nine to one one, that is, assuming
you have cell phone service. They also say, if you
can't call and your signal is weak, send a text,
because often text messages will repeat themselves. They'll try to
send even when you put your phone away, because that's
(04:33):
just the way in which texts service up work.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
Okay, let me be contrarian here. I know enough about
cell phones.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Even though you try to send a text, if it
does not go through, it's going to keep trying and
it's going to further deplete your battery. It really does
deplete your battery quicker when it's trying to resend the
text over and over and over again.
Speaker 6 (04:52):
It's something else something people need to also consider.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
And they do note that and they have other options.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
Another one they say is stay put, don't try and
go find a place to find service. Stay where you
have broken down or where you've gotten lost. That way
people can try and find you where again the last
known ping from your cell phone signal may have tracked.
And then, of course, maximize your battery life. Try to
turn off anything that you don't need to use, and
(05:18):
don't use your phone for unnecessary things like playing games
or trying to busy yourselves. So it just really speaks
again to how something can come back years later. Go
viral again, and how after that new viral sensation basically
has peaked or shown itself, you might have dissenters. You
might have people who are in fact contrariant, and they
(05:41):
come out with new information to refute or validate the
existing meme.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Well, I'm not going to try to get lost to
prove anyone right or wrong, So I'll just go ahead
and stay my ass in an area where I'm not
likely to get lost.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
Really quick, we're gonna move to a story that's a
little bit ahead in our stack, because the story before
this comes with audio.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
So there's a.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
TikTok video about a woman who is mourning her husband's death.
That video went viral a little while ago, a few
weeks ago. But what's happening now is that after that
original video was posted about this young mother mourning the
sudden death of her husband. She was twenty eight, he
was thirty one, the woman the widow in question, has
(06:24):
come out and said that basically she's going to continue
living her life. And quote, people were asking her, first,
why are you, why are you not really why are
you not so sad? Why are you just seeming to
go on with your life? She said, quote because he's
not my God, because one guy dying isn't going to
(06:46):
ruin the rest of my life. And that quote, that
post from this young widow who is mourning her husband's death,
has gone viral, as you can imagine, with people being
very critic some feeling that it's again valid, and some
feeling that it might be piling on a bit too
much because of how she is managing the death of
(07:09):
her husband.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
It really does again speak to.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
Of course, the subjectivity of mourning. I know we did
just speak and have you had that wonderful segment in
the previous segment about assisted suicide. This isn't that, but
it definitely deals with death, and so I found that
it was relevant, so I wanted to skip to it.
She's going viral again because people are basically projecting their
(07:36):
ideas of what mourning should entail upon her, and she
is fighting back and refuting and saying that people are
in her face saying what she's supposed to do and
what she should expect.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
But no, this is her.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
Life and she is living her life by her standards,
which means that she's not going to sit around mourning
her husband because quote, he's one guy and one guy
dying isn't going to ruin the rest of her life,
and she posted that on a TikTok video.
Speaker 6 (08:05):
I don't know what to say about that.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
I have some misgivings about one posting it too, getting
your butt on your shoulders when people, I would say,
rightfully so question your logic and why you posted it,
how you feel about it, how dismissive you are in
posting it.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Absolutely.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
All I know is she's lucky that we got to
go to a break because I was getting ready to
cuss her out too. It's Lad with mo Kelly. The
second half of the Viral Load will be up in
just a moment.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
She'll talk about the time this on social media. Room
Alone with Timpany.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Hubs Can mo Kelly, Tivity Hobbes The Viral Load Part two.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
Okay, So this is a truly heartwarming story. Thanks to
the kindness of a stranger, a woman is now able
to hear the voice of her deceased mother for the
first time in twenty five years and this story actually
broke a year plus ago and it is back, which
(09:25):
is what I started off by saying, these are stories
that we are revisiting essentially because they're going viral for
new reasons. Well, in this case, the young woman Hannah
and Neder, always treasured the photos that she had of
her mom, and her mom died in nineteen ninety five
at the age of thirty five due to suicide.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
Her mother did in fact take her own life.
Speaker 5 (09:47):
At the time, Hannah Nier was eleven years old and
after her mother passed away, all she had were the pictures.
She didn't have any recollection of her voice in recorded form.
When she got older, she started to lose what her
mother's voice sounded like. Well, out of the blue, about
(10:07):
a year ago, Hannah got a Facebook message from a
stranger and this woman the stranger identified herself as Valerie Bradshaw,
who said that she had found in her own possession
a cassette tape, an old school cassette tape in her
home in Sussex, England. Now, the decade's old tape actually
(10:29):
contained content, including an interview from Hannah Neder's mother, Lawrence.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
The woman The stranger was a teacher.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
At the time and had conducted the interview back in
ninety four for her dissertation and had interviewed Hannah Nier's mother, Lawrence,
because she felt that she could contribute to that dissertation. Well,
all these years later, the woman found that, you know,
this tape was just again collecting dust and she wanted
(10:59):
to maybe see if the person was still alive. So
she went on social media. She went on Facebook looking
for Lawrence. This woman named Lawrence and Bradshaw. The stranger,
the kind stranger, was able to make contact with Hannah
and Niter on Facebook through the virility of the posts.
(11:21):
The post caught fire and people shared them far and wide,
and because of that it did make its way to
Lawrence's daughter, Hannah Nitter. So now we're talking about this
because even though this happened a year ago, it is
going viral where that Hannah and Niter has been gifted
this cassette tape with her mother's voice and for the
(11:42):
first time again since she was eleven years old twenty
five years ago when her mother took her life, she
was able to hear her mother in full continuity, just
having conversations and Hannah and Niter said that the best
thing about hearing her mom was her laugh. She had
forgotten that laugh and that it was back so interesting.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
I am completely different. I remember all the voices. I
remember obviously my father's voice. I remember all my grandparents' voices.
My mother's father passed in nineteen eighty six. I remember
his voice like it was just yesterday. Maybe because I'm
musically inclined and sounds ring very specific in my mind.
Speaker 6 (12:27):
That's something I don't lose.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
I find myself having difficulty remembering what certain people looked like,
more so than the sound of their voice. I remember
all my grandparents, the three that i'd met, one passed
before I was born. I remember all their voices, and
that's something that I find when I hear that story.
Like my wife, she lost her mother about six months
(12:50):
after I lost my father, and she was desperate to
find copies of her mother's voice.
Speaker 7 (12:57):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
But for me, that has never been a thing, always
been intriguing to me because that's something I never had
to worry about losing.
Speaker 5 (13:05):
Yeah, And I don't think that this woman, Hannah Nier,
had really took it into account until she was gifted
the voice of her mother. But now that she has it,
she treasures it and she says that she listens to
it and she is able to reminisce.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
So it's a beautiful story.
Speaker 6 (13:19):
It is.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
And I know the power of that of memories just
like that, very very powerful.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Absolutely.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
The next story and last story not so beautiful. It
involves a plane, an iPhone charger, theft, and TikTok. And
before we get into it, we just I'll give you
a quick little synopsis.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
An Apple charger was stolen.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
Good for it was all recorded and uploaded to TikTok,
which produced this wonderful sound bite.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Hit it Steph, excuse me?
Speaker 7 (13:49):
Did you.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
Why would you take my charger?
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Because we got off the flight?
Speaker 6 (13:54):
Yeah, but my charger, that's my charger. Why would you
take it?
Speaker 7 (13:57):
So?
Speaker 6 (13:57):
Why would you take it?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Though?
Speaker 6 (13:58):
Without permission?
Speaker 4 (13:59):
Nobody was on the flight.
Speaker 6 (14:00):
But that's my larger. Hey, we're getting it back, okay.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Can I don't steal things? You can't take things, but
I'll ask.
Speaker 6 (14:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
Look, the conversation would not have lasted that long. It
would have been give me my mother father charger now.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
And that's it.
Speaker 6 (14:21):
That's the end of the discussion.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
That's it.
Speaker 6 (14:23):
Well, give me just a second.
Speaker 5 (14:25):
No, no, no, and she says, well you left it,
so so what basically dot dot dot, And as you heard,
they go back and forth and the video continues on
for a bit. Other people kind of intervene and tell
both sides to calm down. The man eventually does get
his chargerer back.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
His name is Ed.
Speaker 5 (14:42):
She does kind of give it to him, she kind
of dangles it in front of him, and he uploaded
the footage to TikTok. He says, TikTok's gonna make you famous.
In fact, that's what happened. This happened a year ago,
and it's making its rounds now on the viral circuit,
and of course because people are seeing it, the young
woman Vanessa Clover took to her own TikTok to offer
(15:06):
an explanation.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Too late her side, it's too late.
Speaker 5 (15:09):
And then her explanation was encountered by Ed coming back
again and saying, you.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Know, I'm doubling down. This is what happened.
Speaker 5 (15:17):
And then fourth video was released with Vanessa again coming
back and saying, you know what, we all just should
have calmed down, and yeah there's.
Speaker 6 (15:28):
Only once eh, hey, we that's like you calmed down.
Let's sell someone Jack.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
You took your car and you have it on that person, like, hey,
give me my car back. Hey, why don't we just
all calm down, take a breath. Okay, I just need
it for a minute. I'm just running to the store.
I'm going to seven eleven.
Speaker 6 (15:45):
I'll be right back.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (15:47):
Okay, there's a metro buss over there. Okay, you'll be fine.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
Go hijack that. That's it. That's all we have. That's enough.
Speaker 6 (15:55):
That was a lot for a viral load.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
You're listening too later with Kelly on Demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
And I am a confirmed Halle Berry fan. Just to reset,
I had met her any number of times. Her second husband, Yeah,
second husband, Eric Guney, Vocal Artists, good friend of mine.
He was on Warner Brothers Records. I was working in
Warner Brothers Records when they first started dating. Hollywould come
(16:24):
by all the time, so we had a chance to
see her, hang out with her for over the period
of months. Even up there was one night if you
if you ever see a picture of me and Halle
not name dropping or humble bragging, I'm just giving you context.
It was taken at her house because you know, we
(16:44):
would spend so much time around her, so I have
a degree of a familiarity with who she was, at
least back then, and one of the nicest people you
will ever want to meet. She's very open, she is
very giving, she's very sincere. You know, met her mother.
And I'll tell this one little story very quickly, and
(17:05):
Tiffany will probably get a kick out of this. Do
you remember when she had this car accident?
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Yes, I do.
Speaker 4 (17:12):
When I went to her house and I she was
so open because she was going through it at that time.
To give you time, she was very willing to open
up and tell me her side of that introduced me
to her mother. She's just a very open and giving person,
and I think to a fault and people use that
against her, say that all to say. When I saw
(17:33):
this revelation, she is again offering a lot of information,
and I say, yeah, if you know her, if you've
ever been around her, that's who she is.
Speaker 6 (17:44):
She's very genuine and she opened up in.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Recently talking about what she was doing as a young
actress in the industry. She's fifty eight now and she
made her film debut back in ninth ninety one in
the Spike Lee movie Jungle Fever, and she was playing
the girlfriend, the drug addicted girlfriend opposite of Samuel L.
Speaker 6 (18:09):
Jackson who was playing Gator.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
If you want to look it up, at the very compelling,
believable drug scenes. And she made it clear that she
had no experience with drug use, and she had grown
up in an environment where there were no narcotics, so
it was completely foreign to her. But in a recent interview,
she told that in the movie nineteen ninety five movie
(18:35):
Losing Isaiah, where she also plays someone else who was
drug addicted, she wanted to make sure that she had
a reference point for playing that character, and she actually
went to the links of trying crack and visiting multiple crackhouses.
Speaker 6 (18:56):
Damn.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
Now there's method acting, and there's method acting. It makes sense,
if only because Halle Berry has been very serious, always
been very serious about her acting. And even though people
may try to take shots at her for her acting
or her wigs or her movies over the years, she
(19:20):
has always been very serious about her craft. If you're
going to give her any credit, give her credit for that.
And I was talking about, you know, I've been around
her any number of times it's like I didn't know that,
and obviously not a lot of people knew that, and
she didn't feel comfortable with sharing that publicly and to
find out.
Speaker 6 (19:41):
I just.
Speaker 4 (19:43):
Look, there's certain things that I would do for money.
There are a lot of things I would not do
for money. I'll give you a perfect example. If someone said, Mo,
we got this perfect role for you and you're going
to do this, that and the other, but you have
to say the N word. I would not do the
role ever, under any circumstances. And that's a true story.
(20:06):
Working in this business, you always have to have the
internal dialogue with yourself about what you're willing to do
and what you're not willing to do to either become famous,
become recognized, or become wealthy. And for a while I
was dabbling with acting, so I kind of know you
still have to have that conversation and to I've never
(20:29):
done any drugs, not any hard drugs. I've had maybe
half of a marijuana joint and that was with a
coke can if you know how that works, and.
Speaker 6 (20:41):
Half of an edible in my life, that's it. Never done.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Molly never done ecstasy, sure as hell, would never ever
consider doing crack for the sake of a role.
Speaker 7 (20:53):
I think when Lee Strasberg created method acting, he didn't
want the emphasis to be on the first syllable come on,
come on, I'm geared to him, guarant to him.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
Well wait, he wasn't even thinking he was going to
be funny tonight. It's a little slow.
Speaker 7 (21:08):
What if you were offered a high paying feature film
role that involved you having a love scene with Foosh?
Speaker 6 (21:16):
No, you know what? In fact, I probably wouldn't do.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
I wouldn't be a good actor because I have too
many hang ups and the whole idea of just doing
I know it's acting everything, but I don't think I
could pull off certain things, like, for example, if they
had hired me, and I'm being really serious and transparent,
if they hired me for Jake Jillenhall's role and broke Back.
Speaker 6 (21:36):
Mountain, I don't. I couldn't pull it off. I don't.
I couldn't pull it off.
Speaker 7 (21:41):
They're just Heath Ledger wasn't your type.
Speaker 6 (21:45):
Yeah, Heath Ledger wasn't my type.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
I'm saying there's certain roles I don't think I can
be authentic enough.
Speaker 6 (21:51):
You and Sinatra yep. Now, And also do it.
Speaker 4 (21:55):
Look, if I were ever to pop up in a movie,
it would probably be a romantic comedy or an action movie.
Speaker 6 (22:03):
I don't have a lot of range. That's part of it.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
It's not going to be in a full blown love
story of any kind.
Speaker 7 (22:10):
So an action movie, then you fancy yourself an action star.
Like yes, walking away from an explosion in slow motions
flowing behind me?
Speaker 6 (22:18):
That movie.
Speaker 7 (22:18):
I could see that, Yes, Like you're with your partner
in a car and the two of you look at
each other and.
Speaker 6 (22:23):
Go, ah, something like that.
Speaker 4 (22:26):
Okay, something like that, you know, the slow motion, the
car is going over the jump and everything, all of that.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
That that's me, That's who I am. We can see that, Yes, Okay.
Speaker 4 (22:35):
But look, I'm not gonna do the whole method acting
thing and go to a place which is just not
in me. I can't pull it off. That's why I
probably never could be all that good at acting. But
oh and also with halle Berry, going back to her,
she said that she went days without brushing her teeth
or bathing to get in the mindset of someone who
(22:58):
is only obsessed with drugs and would forsake everything else.
Speaker 6 (23:03):
You know, if you.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
Remember, remember I said, I couldn't even deal with like
going into the forest and being a survivalist or and
I have trouble watching movies where I can see, like
we were talking about the rever Ridge movies, like that
guy hadn't have a shower in terms of his character.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
Throughout the whole movie.
Speaker 4 (23:21):
And I was thinking, throughout the whole movie on Netflix,
this guy hasn't even.
Speaker 6 (23:25):
Had a shower.
Speaker 4 (23:26):
I could not even method act not taking a shower
or brushing my teeth for.
Speaker 6 (23:32):
Three four days.
Speaker 7 (23:33):
I can see that there's an apocryphal story I don't
know if it's true or not about the shooting of
Marathon Man the Dustin Hoffman movie where he tries to
get in character by running around the park and being
all out of breath for a scene and Laurence Olivier
tells him, my boy, instead, why don't you just try acting?
Speaker 4 (23:49):
Yeah, yeah, it's true, but it doesn't work for everyone.
And I can respect those actors who go to such
links Like I hear stories about Johnny Depp. He will
stay in character throughout the entirety of a movie. Shoot,
don't call him by his real name. Wonderful, great. I'm
just not built that way. And going back to Holly Berry,
(24:11):
I have a newfound respect for her and dedication to
her craft. I'm always of the opinion be a student
of your craft, be dedicated to your craft. They're just
certain lines I'm just not going to cross. I'm not
gonna do it. So you don't have to worry about
me ending up in Rambo eight to some soldier out
in the bush for a week.
Speaker 6 (24:30):
You will not find me in that role. Okay.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
No bug eating no, No, like they had in Rebel Ridge.
That was bug eating and stuff. No, your crickets aren't
so bad. Look true story. Tawala can eat the crickets.
I'm not eating that stuff.
Speaker 6 (24:46):
I'm not.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
There's not enough money out there, and no Broke Back
Mountain two, well at least not starring me. Now you okay,
you know if you could be Jake Jillen Hall and
you a Heath Ledger, he's unfortunately no longer with us.
Speaker 7 (25:00):
But I don't have the same hang ups as you.
So if if it pays, well put me down so
you get him on the phone, then he probably says
the N word too. See you asked for that? Did
you just call me a cracker? I swear I heard that.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
See see that's how it starts. That was Mark replay
the tame said Mark Ronner. I do not condone all
type of language.
Speaker 4 (25:25):
I know that I don't use that type of language,
either on the air or in my private life.
Speaker 6 (25:30):
It's not in my language or lexicon. That was Mark Ronner.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Please send all hate mail to at Mark Runner on
any and all social media.
Speaker 7 (25:39):
At mister mo Kelly, that all comes to me.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
KIM six forty. We are live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app.
You you feel pretty good.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
About yourself, don't you, Mark, I need a minute.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
Before we get out of here, have to remind you
a couple of things. It's Halloween time at the Disneyland Resort.
Is Halloween time and KFI AM six forty wants to
give you a chance to experience the frightful, fun happiest
Halloween has brought fiendishly tasty treats, thrills for one and all,
and boot tifold decor to both Disney California Adventure Park
(26:19):
and Disneyland Park, going on now through Halloween October thirty. First,
keep listening to KFI and keep listening to Later with
mo Kelly. Most importantly for your chance to win a
four pack of one day one park tickets to the
Disneyland Resort.
Speaker 6 (26:35):
I can't make it any more obvious than that.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Keep listening to Later with mo Kelly for your chance
to win a four pack of one day one park
tickets to the Disneyland Resort. And before we get out
of here, I have a lot of fun with Mark Ronner.
And for those who may not know or understand, are
weird dynamic. I love this man like a of an
(27:00):
at natural born brother.
Speaker 6 (27:02):
Don't you make me cry? I'm watching it cry. I'm
just saying, you.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
Know, we have a weird on air relationship that you
don't understand unless you knew us off air. I mentioned
that because the other night I was texting you it
was well after midnight, because I want to make sure
you're off I believe. And it was a continuation of
a conversation where I've said on air, I like to
(27:26):
go back and rewatch movies from my childhood.
Speaker 7 (27:30):
Oh, yeah, you always see things differently. Yeah, And I
was watching Pigs.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
We had an on air conversation about the nineteen sixty
eight version of the movie, the original version of The
Thomas Crown Affair masterpiece with and I was watching it
looking at Steve McQueen through very different eyes. My father
introduced me to Steve McQueen with the movie Bullet.
Speaker 7 (27:55):
You could do a lot worse than that. I tell
you that. What a great movie to see with your dad.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
Enviously, no great and it obviously if you know anything
about car chases, and if you love anything about a
good car chase, that was the seminal car chase of
all car chases, all.
Speaker 6 (28:12):
Top ten easily.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
All traces back to that point is because I was
exposed to Steve McQueen through that movie.
Speaker 6 (28:19):
It got me interested in seeing his other movies.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Yes, I saw The Thomas Crown Affair as a kid,
but to watch it again as an adult with a
greater appreciation of cinema, a greater appreciation of subtlety of acting,
and also i'll say filming techniques. This movie by Norman
Jewison was so damn good. I don't think it will
(28:45):
ever get its due acclaim from the way it will shot,
the double box, to the different letterboxes, to even the
score with Michelle LaGrand. If you know the movie there
is this chess scene which is so beautifully shot, and
(29:07):
the music score underneath it is so gorgeous. If you
do nothing else tonight, go to YouTube and look up
the chess game Thomas Crown Affair, and you'll be able
to see what I saw. Watch the whole scene, how
it lays out. It is subtle and on the nose
(29:29):
at the same time, there's a lot of metaphor going on.
There a lot of innu window going on. But listen
to how the music score makes that scene perfect.
Speaker 7 (29:40):
You're not touching me with your quote, Bishop, Okay, no, no,
but the rook was sticking out now, Jewison. I went
on right after that, or at least not long after that,
to do rollerball.
Speaker 6 (29:51):
What a run that guy had.
Speaker 4 (29:52):
Oh my goodness, And I was looking up. He died
relatively recently. I want to think, like maybe in the
past five years or so. Oh I didn't realize that
if I'm not, or maybe that was michell Legrand. But
you know, I'm like my own DVD add on where
I'll watch a movie and I'm googling the actors and
the people connected to it to get background information and
(30:12):
see where they are now.
Speaker 6 (30:13):
See if they're still living. Maybe find something else.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
I didn't know about the movie, so I had a
good time and I was texting you back and forth
about the majesty.
Speaker 6 (30:22):
Of that movie.
Speaker 4 (30:24):
I so much more appreciate that movie now, and no disrespect,
no disrespect to Pierce Brosnen, but I'm sorry he could
not fill up the screen in the same way that
Steve McQueen did. He was fabulous, and he did it
with virtually nothing because you didn't have the special effects
and the filming tricks that they had back then.
Speaker 7 (30:47):
Yeah, and I mentioned this to you subsequently, which is
that the Pierce Brosnan version of that movie is very respectable,
and it's very well made, and he's good in it.
But McQueen had something a little dangerous about him that
Brosenan has never had. Brosnan's an attractive man, and like
a former male model or whatever the hell he is,
McQueen had a little rough trade side to him that
(31:08):
makes you understand why the female investigator character in that
movie could do something so stupid and fall for him.
Speaker 4 (31:15):
But you had this, He had the screen appeal where
you literally couldn't keep your eyes off of him.
Speaker 7 (31:21):
And you say you won't be in Broke Back Mountain sequel.
Let's get it's gotta be one of the other.
Speaker 6 (31:28):
Okay, I didn't say I wanted to sleep with them.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
I'm saying that he was so compelling and if you
know the movie, there are a lot of close ups
of his eyes. He has piercing blue eyes and you
could see the subtleties in his acting, eye twitches, darting
of the eyes.
Speaker 6 (31:46):
It's like, goss, this guy was so damn good.
Speaker 7 (31:49):
He really was, and that movie played to his strengths.
He was an actor, like we've used the term limited range,
and that was a good role for him. My favorite
Stephen Queen role is the Getaway. You've seen the GHETA.
I need to see that one again. Maybe i'll see
it tonight. Yeah, I mean there's parts of the Getaway
that probably wouldn't fly these days very much A think
of its time.
Speaker 6 (32:08):
Sam peckin Palm movie that is really good.
Speaker 4 (32:11):
So if you're listening right now, your homework assignment is
to go Google or go to YouTube. Look up the
Chess game, the Thomas Crown Affair. You'll thank me for
it after it. KFI AM six forty We're live everywhere
