You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
kf I Am six.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Forty Now Kelly Show.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
Social Media, Facebook gets to extract.
Speaker 4 (00:27):
Dne viral load, viral load, the viral load Arlo Timney.
Speaker 5 (00:36):
Kay if I am six forty is later with Mo Kelly,
Let's turn it over to Tiffany Hobbs and.
Speaker 4 (00:40):
The viral load. What a day.
Speaker 6 (00:41):
This viral load batch of stories hopefully will provide a
bit of a reprieve for all of the really heaviness
of today. We have some funny stories. We have a
We're going to start with a light hearted story that's
going to tug at your heart strings in a good way.
We have a trend of stupid trend alert of course,
and again hopefully this is a welcome distraction for a
(01:06):
lot of the heavier news that's been talked about that
we all obviously are aware of. We're going to start
with a very common practice when you train for a marathon,
when you're a runner of any type, if you exercise
in any way, I can even scale it back to
just simple exercise, which I hope you do. Mo often
stands here at the table and walks in place.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
You know it's really good for you to exercise.
Speaker 6 (01:31):
Often people will have something in their earphones AirPods to
listen to to motivate that sort of activity. Mo, when
you are exercising out in the wild, do you listen
to music? Do you listen to podcasts? Or are you
just listening to nature?
Speaker 3 (01:46):
What's up?
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Usually music?
Speaker 5 (01:48):
It has to be something that I don't have to
concentrate on. Okay, I don't want to have to listen
for content, yeah, to digest or understand. No, just give
me some workout music which allows me to motivate myself
about some perceived wrong about someone who pissed me off
years ago, or.
Speaker 6 (02:07):
Something motivational music. Same for me, I want something that
gets me going. In this case, there's a runner. Her
name on social media is Macy Mexico, and she was
running a marathon. She ran a marathon, not an easy
feat by any stretch of the imagination, and she decided
that she needed something to motivate her. Instead of using music,
(02:29):
Macy asked her friends and family to send her voice
notes that she could then upload to some server, put
it into her Apple AirPods, and replay while she ran
this marathon. So instead of music, she had the voices
of these people she loves so dearly, cheering her on.
I just want to say this is yet another example
(02:51):
of crying over strangers on the Internet, because when I
listened to this, to these little messages, I was just
really taken by how earnest and genuine her friends and
family were.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Let's hear a few clips about that now.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
But it says you got it, you got it, you
got here, almost done, Okay.
Speaker 6 (03:14):
Really made We're so proudly she's running while she's listening.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Yeah, a great.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Pick it up, mazy one, what he did it?
Speaker 7 (03:25):
Mazie, you got it, You're almost done.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
I love you, Love you Summer. The fit is fire
and so close.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Keep reading, so proud of you.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Oh my gosh, baby. One more mile Ron host Ron,
you're turning.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
It says you're turning.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
We're almost too, You're almost to us.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
You got this, Macy, Who's I'm so excited.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
You're just running your little hard away and hopefully those
hills are too brutal out there and you can do.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
All things through, can't They gets the strength.
Speaker 6 (04:06):
When I heard this, it legitimately choked me up. Even
listening back right now, I'm just like, wow, can you
imagine running any stretch, any sort of distance, and that's
what you have in your ears, motivating you and pushing
you along. Well, luckily for Macy, she did have that
Macy Mexico on social media and she finished her marathon
(04:27):
and what she said was record time. It was a
half marathon and she ran it in just over two hours,
which was better.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Than a previous time.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
And she attributes that increase or that success directly to
these audio messages that were playing in her ears.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
So if you need some.
Speaker 6 (04:44):
Motivation instead of listening to music, maybe ask some of
your friends and family to send you some cute little
audio clips. Next story also deals with audio, but it
starts off in a different way. Have you ever heard
of a flash mob? Well, did you want to answer?
Speaker 4 (05:00):
I've ever heard it? There you go.
Speaker 6 (05:02):
I was waiting for you. Okay, So flash mobs are these?
Speaker 8 (05:06):
Are? Are?
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Are these? What would you call?
Speaker 6 (05:08):
Events that are orchestrated with crowds of people? They appear
seemingly out of nowhere. It's all coordinated, choreographed, and it
could be a dance, it could be a song, but
these people come together in a chorus more or less,
and they perform whatever this art is usually song or
dance are both at this public space and others are
(05:30):
invited in to participate, while in this case it involves
legendary band Queen. I Love Queen, You Love Queen, and
Queen is now back on top of the iTunes Top
Songs chart in America because their song Bohemian Rhapsody, which
is now at number seventeen, fifty years after it debuted
(05:52):
on the on the iTunes Top Songs. It's atop the
chart because it was used in a flash mob that
was posted by a man named Julian Cohen, who's known
for live musical performances and live gatherings of performers and singers.
This flash mob was recorded by numerous people and a
(06:14):
professional videographer who then uploaded the footage all around social media.
It was filmed in Paris on September ninth, so just
yesterday and or a couple of days ago, and uploaded yesterday,
and already in one day of being on YouTube, it's
racked up more than half a million views, quickly approaching
one million, and it has gone viral across multiple social
(06:37):
media platforms. Here's a bit of that flash mob with
all these singers and performers who came out of windows
and doors in the middle of this Paris neighborhood to
(07:02):
their people sitting down below, and they're watching, they're eating.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
There's a young man on.
Speaker 6 (07:07):
A carriage, and these performers are just singing. They look
like regular patrons and people are starting to catch on
as more people join the chorus.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
Ready, mo, I like it.
Speaker 6 (07:38):
I want you to sing Mamo not yet, no, wait wait, wait,
here we go.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Mama just killed the bed.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
I can't be the only one.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Sing joined the flash mob.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
Mark not those lyrics today.
Speaker 6 (08:01):
It's a beautiful flash mob. It goes on for a
few minutes.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
But you'd hear this note mom, if you're watching.
Speaker 6 (08:14):
YouTube, it's live here on YouTube.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
It's very good. Again, we can lower it, Tony.
Speaker 6 (08:22):
It's gone viral across multiple social media platforms.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Up until today, it was probably the most.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
Widely watched viral moment of the last few days, obviously
now being eclipsed by what happened to Charlie Kirk. But
it is a Yeah, it's a beautiful visual. I highly
encourage you to check it out. You can go to
Google or YouTube and type in Bohemian Rhapster slash mob
(08:52):
and maybe Mo will pop up.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
Who knows, No, I've actually sung was on this part
of a jazz corral, my Mom's jazz crawd.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Do you find it easy to get your voice up
that high?
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Yes, you didn't see what he was grabbing to get there?
Speaker 4 (09:05):
A false setu, Yeah, I have to squeeze anything.
Speaker 8 (09:08):
Okay, it's so juvenile you're saying it comes natural to you.
Speaker 5 (09:13):
You know some of the greatest singers of all time.
You're saying a false settle. You never heard of someone
like Smokey Robinson.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Oh yeah, you're the Smokey Robinson of KFI. I think so,
I'll take that.
Speaker 8 (09:24):
I'll accept that, including the latest ton Smokey Robins.
Speaker 6 (09:30):
It's a terrible segue, really quick. Yeah, changed it something
on the other side of the bravery. Come back with
a viral hurry. We have a year old story that's
back in the news. It has to do with being
hit by something and then being charged for being the victim.
And then the last story will end with the latest
TikTok trend and it can get you arrested and probably
(09:53):
should and put on multiple lists.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
I'll tell you what it is when we come back.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Oo, take your hands out of the baby.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Baby, what are you squeezing?
Speaker 1 (10:05):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on Demand from
KFI Am six forty. Now it's Tucking the Viral Lover
Tiffany Live on Camfies Later with mo o Kelly.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
She'll talk about the time this on social media.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Lad with Tiffany Hups.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
KFI Later with mo Kelly Live on YouTube and the
iHeartRadio app. Tiffany Hobbs says, more the viral load.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Here we go with viral stories.
Speaker 6 (10:42):
Some are brand new, some might have happened that day,
that week, and then some like this story are a
year old, even older at times. And what happens is
someone gets a hold of the story, uploads it to
social media, and then it takes off and it goes viral.
That's what happened with the k of this story. It
actually happened in November of last year, so almost a
(11:04):
year ago, in which an ambulance slammed into a bicyclist
in Oregon. Now that collision produced a pretty significant injury
for this bicyclist.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
It broke his nose.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
It also smashed his bike to smithereens and he had
significant cuts and bruises and scrapes and so on. Well,
the ambulance actually stopped. Luckily, it wasn't a hit and
run that would have been really unfortunate. It stopped and
it tended to the man. It's an ambulance. It makes sense.
Why wouldn't they do that? And they actually transported the
(11:40):
man to the nearest hospital. Man's name William Hosts, seventy
one years old, and after being transported to the hospital,
he received all sorts of bandaging and you know, the
regular care that you would get in an event like this.
And he also received a bill for about eighteen hundred
(12:02):
dollars actually one eight hundred and sixty two dollars to
be specific. Now, the bill came because the ambulance said, well,
we transported you, and when we transport anyone.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
You have to foot that bill.
Speaker 6 (12:19):
The bicyclist, William hoas his name is spelled really funky
ho e sc h Hosh, said no, I didn't. I
didn't really agree to be transported. I had no other
way to get there, and you guys assumed responsibility for me,
and in that case you should incur the charges.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
There should be no charges.
Speaker 6 (12:38):
And they went back and forth for a while, with
the ambulance company saying that they were not going to
back down. Well, William host did in fact sue not
for the one thousand, eight hundred and sixty two dollars no,
but for one hundred thousand dollars due to permanent injuries
and medical expenses.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
After going back back and forth for.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
A few months, the lawsuit was settled undisclosed settlement to
William Hosh. But the story has gone viral because people
on the internet found this story and they've shared it
far and wide, and it's been all over social media.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Can I jump?
Speaker 5 (13:17):
This is strange to me because I thought people knew
about this, this is not unusual. When I got hit
by a drunk driver and I was a pedestrian, the
ambulance came and they said, mistere Kelly, we think we
need to take you to the hospital. And they ask you,
you know, whether you're gonna go, and I was him
(13:38):
and haunts like, no, I think I'm okay, and there
are people around me. I was with my fraternity brother
said no, you should go, you know, at least for
the record, And then they took me to the hospital. Then
like three months later, got a bill for like a
thousand dollars, yes, And I was like.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Wait a minute, I was the one who got hit
by a.
Speaker 5 (13:54):
Drunk driver, right, I didn't ask for the ambulance. You
all asked me, you know, to take me. It wasn't
like it was required. And then I get a bill.
So when I see the stories like yeah, you have
to be very clear if and when an ambulance says, hey,
you know, do you think we should take you? Because
(14:15):
they'll ask you that they won't demand. Most times they'll
ask you, and if you say yes, that bill is coming.
Speaker 6 (14:21):
Well, I think in this case, and not to say
or suggests that you're wrong, because you're not at all.
I think in this case the settlement does in fact
reflect some sort of culpability on the ambulance company's part,
where that they decided that they would make it right,
they would do what you know, do good bye by
William Rosch and go ahead or host she's me and
(14:43):
go ahead and try and settle that bill. So eighteen
hundred and sixty two dollars amounted a lot of work,
though a lot more and a lot in absolutely a
lot in and legal bills. But that is the consequence,
and it is a viral story. A year later, our
last story is a new new story.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
It's that one of the.
Speaker 6 (15:01):
Newest, stupidest TikTok trends because we have no shortage of those.
They Oh, this one can get you put on the
registered sex offender list. What yeah, there's a viral TikTok
account featuring what appears to be public urination on Louisiana
(15:24):
State University's campus.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
Oh yeah, that'll do it.
Speaker 6 (15:29):
One TikTok account associated with either a visitor or a
student at LSU has a mast well over twenty thousand
likes and over one hundred and fifty thousand views in
which this person who looks to be younger perhaps a student,
is urinating on a part of LSU's campus.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Who is never urinated publicly tell the truth?
Speaker 3 (15:55):
What's the statute of limitations on that?
Speaker 4 (15:57):
It is put its way? It's expired unless you did
it like last week.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Or something moving along. So it's not just that LSU.
Speaker 6 (16:07):
This is a collegiate or collegiate trend in which it's
happening on other campuses. University of Texas at San Antonio.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
It happens on every college campus.
Speaker 6 (16:17):
But not yes, but videoing recording yourself uploading it, no
share social media, so that.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
Part may not be happening. That's the thing itself is happening.
Speaker 5 (16:29):
It's happening right now my alma mater, Georgetown's campus, right now.
Speaker 6 (16:33):
It's happening right now in front of my building, I imagine.
But the difference is people are again recording themselves, uploading
it for shares and likes. They're going viral because they're
hashtagging it with the trend, and schools are starting to
respond by saying that this is destruction of property at
the health hazards, it defaces property, it violates university policy,
(16:53):
and you can be referred to campus police, and if
you are doing those sorts of things and you get caught,
you can be charged with that sort of indecency that
could lead you to public exposure and being on the
registered sex offender list. And kids are doing this and
in pursuit of likes.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
Thank goodness they didn't have camera phones and social media
when I was in college, because everything they're doing I
was doing, with the exception of photographing it, sharing it
and trying to get you know, likes and hearts for it.
Speaker 6 (17:29):
The difference between them and us is that age age
and no evidence.
Speaker 5 (17:33):
Oh no, no, yeah, because I'm sure if there was
social media back when I was in school with my
poor judgment. Oh absolutely, It's amazing that I'm not in
jail right now.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
Knock on wood, all the stuff I did years ago.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
The night's still young.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
No, no, no, satue limitations. I should be good.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
I should be The night's still young.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
I haven't murdered anyone, So there's.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
The night's still young.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
No no, no, I'm clear.
Speaker 5 (17:58):
I've already researched all the stuff that I've done and
the expiration of the statute of limitations. I haven't killed anyone,
so I don't have to worry about one for life
or anything. No, I'm I'm good.
Speaker 6 (18:07):
Psychologists say if you fantasize about harming someone, it's a
healthy habit because it actually keeps you from committing the
act that you're fantasizing about.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
So that's why Mark Runner still a log.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
There you go, and that's the viral lode.
Speaker 6 (18:19):
You can catch me on Saturday Saturdays with Tiffany right
here from five to seven pm.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
What Mark, that's not how you fantasize about me? Just a.
Speaker 6 (18:30):
Baby baby He's getting up there he's grabbing something.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
I thought you were playing a recording of some castrati
that sounds fantastic.
Speaker 4 (18:40):
Gottro Moosh, Gottro moosh.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
KFI Later with mo Kelly. We're a lot on YouTube
and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
And I was talking to Tiffany Hobbes of the Viral
Load during the break and I'm not going to tell
you all of our conversation, but I did want to
share some of it because we're still watching the news,
and thank you Tiffany for lightening it up with the
Viral Load. But there's still this hall which is hanging
over not only everyone's lives, but just media. And you know,
(19:33):
it was a strange day. I think everyone has to
take stock of where we are in this moment. And
I saw this news story that Ben Shapiro, a conservative commentator,
has canceled his book signing appearance which was coming up
at the Reagan Library. And I'm not going to second
(19:55):
guess whether he should or should not, but I think
it highlights a larger discussion about how we move forward,
what that looks like, what that feels like whether commentators,
and that's inclusive of of myself, whether we pull back
in regard to public appearances, at least for the foreseeable future,
(20:18):
given the hyper partisanship and the undeniable political violence. And
although there's more focus on Charlie Kirk, and I'm not
making a value judgment, you had two yet Minnesota lawmaker
murdered in her own home, Melissa Hartman and her husband
(20:39):
just a couple of months ago. And I'm not trying
to compare or somehow say one life is more important
or valuable than others. I am making the point that
there is growing violence, actual violence, and no one wants
to be the next statistic And if anything, the past
(21:04):
few months have said to me and hopefully to others,
that this is real and this is going to unfortunately
consume America if we don't do something about it. And
that's the collective we and there are a lot of
people who have nothing nice to say about Charlie Kirk,
and his rhetorical history is inarguable and for many people contemptible.
(21:30):
At the same time, we're talking about murder now, we're
not talking about what he had to say. There was
a report of a MSNBC commentator who was fired for
making the argument tonight, Correct me if I'm wrong, Tiffany
or Mark. I just saw the story in passing. I
think it was Matthew Dowd. If I'm not mistaken saying
(21:51):
that Charlie Kirk something like to the effect of this
happened because of his rhetoric. I would never say that,
you know, because you said something, you're going to catch
a bullet. I will say that, by and large, we
have been largely reckless with our rhetoric.
Speaker 6 (22:09):
If I may, it was Matthew Dowd, and I don't
necessarily think that he minced words. I think that because everyone,
and maybe not everyone, but many people are so charged
up that they are unable to process logic because it's
so emotionally heavy right now and rightfully so, it's a
(22:31):
very tense time. But I think that when your words galvanize,
when your words illicit, when your words provoke action that
can be violent, or can be is divisive, can be vitriolic,
then the consequence of that is that those same things
(22:53):
can in fact meet you. And in this case, this
was the utmost extreme example of that.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
Well, that's a very nuanced take but we don't live
in a nuanced amrriage, and.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
You can't be nuanced when you're emotional.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Yeah, you know, And that's why I try to tell people.
Speaker 5 (23:07):
It's like, I'm not running to speculate on the motivations
of the shooter, who we don't know, and we don't
know what or why.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
On its face, it.
Speaker 5 (23:17):
Looks political, if only because it happened at a political event,
But that may not be the reason, and I'm waiting
for the reason. But we live in a time in
which people are more concerned with being first and having
the hot take and talking about this and saying what's
on their mind is free speech, and it's.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
Like, m it doesn't mean being irresponsible.
Speaker 6 (23:37):
I was mentioning to you off air as well that
I have a friend who is a well known lecturer,
has been for twenty five years and travels the country
speaking at colleges and speaking about anti racist practices. It's
something that can be very polarizing, and he said tonight
that he is looking into pulling back completely and moving
(24:01):
his entire operation to Zoom because he just doesn't feel safe.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
I get it, and I started the show tonight talking
about this long continuum of political violence in America just
over the past five years. And the reason I did
that because it didn't come out of nowhere, It didn't
happen recently. It wasn't surprising if you were paying attention,
(24:27):
and I was saying that this portends that there will
be more.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
I'm not hoping for that.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
I am not wish casting for that, but I am
serious as a student of history to know that this
is the trajectory that we're on. It just doesn't stop immediately.
We as the country have to finally be of the
opinion that we've had enough. We have not gotten to
the point where we're saying, Okay, we've had enough of this.
(24:56):
When we get there, then things will begin to change.
And since we're not there, things are not going to change,
and there, unfortunately, will be more of this.
Speaker 6 (25:04):
Retaliation is imminent, whether it's verbally as we're seeing online,
the rhetoric going back and forth between the different sides
of the aisle. On the different sides of the aisle,
everyone's attacking each other, and that's a part of the consequence.
That's probably the first step toward what you're talking about.
And when someone or others decide to take that off
(25:27):
of the proverbial page. Then you have these examples of violence,
and I am like you, Mo. I don't want to
wish cast I don't want to even speak it into
the ether. But I'm not naive to think that there's
not something brewing to avenge what happened today.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
I'll say this.
Speaker 5 (25:45):
My mother gave me this advice a long time ago,
and it is so prescient, it is so appropriate for
this moment. She asked me because I was going through
a difficult time and I felt that I had been wronged,
and she was telling me, do you want to be
right or do you want to be righteous? Very different conception,
(26:07):
and we live in a time where people want to
be right. In other words, we want to blame someone.
We want to tell someone that this is where we're
supposed to live. These people do not belong here. Or
I can't deal with these people. I think they are criminals.
We want to be right, but we're not in any
way interested in being righteous. We can apply that to immigration,
(26:27):
we can apply that to policing in America in our
fight against crime.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
We just want to be right.
Speaker 5 (26:33):
We have no interest in going about it in a
righteous manner. And until for all these supposed Christians out there.
You put it on your social media profiles talking about Oh,
you're a Christian in America.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
First, you love America.
Speaker 5 (26:48):
I want to see righteousness from you, and until I do,
then I don't think you're serious.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
You're gonna want to stay off Twitter. I don't even
get onto it that I left Twitter for that reason. Yeah,
it's a cesspool right now.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Oh, I know.
Speaker 5 (27:04):
I made a conscious effort to not forage out into
the world of social media today because it's only going
to confirm what I feel is worse about America. That's
all that's gonna happen. So I didn't need to see
more of that. I know what the ugliness is being
(27:24):
sprayed out there. I'm fully aware. I don't need to
see this person say it or that person say it.
And I tell you there's certain radio stations and television
stations and cable news I refuse to watch today, one
because I did not want to be influenced by what
other people had to say. And two I kind of
knew what the other people were gonna say and I
wasn't gonna like it. And so when I come to
(27:46):
you tonight, I'm telling you what's on my heart and
on my mind. I'm not responding to anyone. I'm not
referring to anyone's remarks. People all the time say did
you hear? What did you see?
Speaker 2 (27:56):
What?
Speaker 4 (27:56):
So and so said?
Speaker 5 (27:57):
No, I did not, because that it's not necessary for
me to tell you what I think is important in
this moment.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
So to dovetail what you were saying, Tiffany, before we
go to break.
Speaker 5 (28:12):
It's going to get worse before it gets better, because
we have no desire in making it any better, and
unfortunately that's going to have all sorts of really bad
consequences for us individually, collectively and as a nation. I
wish I had some sort of silver lining to this
(28:33):
cloud to offer you, but I don't. Because I've been
talking about this for freaking years, about political violence.
Speaker 4 (28:38):
I have.
Speaker 5 (28:41):
What can I do? It's later with mo Keller. We'll
check in with George Nori. And also we have to
end on an upnote. We have to give away these
tickets to Direct from Sweden a tribute to Abbatt at
the Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts. The performance is
this Sunday, the fifteenth. We're going to give away one
pair tonight. That's coming up next.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Segment you're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand
from KFI AM six FortyFive.

Coming up in moments will be Coast Coast AM with George. No, George,
how you doing, sir?
Speaker 7 (29:21):
Good mo. Strange day, huh.
Speaker 5 (29:23):
It's a strange and unfortunate day. But there might be
more in the future, unfortunately on this trajectory.
Speaker 9 (29:30):
Unfortunately, on our program tonight, we're going to talk about
the artificial intelligence of course, track the news of the day,
stay on top of that story, and then later on
UFOs on Coast to Coast.
Speaker 5 (29:41):
I'm glad you're talking about UFOs. I assume you saw
the video which was I guess shown before Congress about
this orbit where they had the hell fire missile shot out.
Speaker 7 (29:50):
Unbelievable and it just bounced off it.
Speaker 4 (29:52):
It's like, oh, we are outclassed.
Speaker 7 (29:54):
There's something up there. There's something there.
Speaker 4 (29:57):
Well, there's something down here. I think they're everywhere.
Speaker 7 (30:00):
They sure are.
Speaker 4 (30:00):
You're on it because I listen to you. George.
Speaker 7 (30:04):
All right, right, friend, see us so bye.
Speaker 5 (30:06):
Before we get out of here, we were talking about
how we're going to give away some tickets. I think
now might be the time, Tony, Why don't you help
me out there? Don't you have some music you're supposed
to get?
Speaker 4 (30:18):
Thank you?
Speaker 5 (30:20):

Speaker 4 (32:34):
More stimulating talk
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
kf I Am six.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Forty Now Kelly Show.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
Social Media, Facebook gets to extract.
Speaker 4 (00:27):
Dne viral load, viral load, the viral load Arlo Timney.
Speaker 5 (00:36):
Kay if I am six forty is later with Mo Kelly,
Let's turn it over to Tiffany Hobbs and.
Speaker 4 (00:40):
The viral load. What a day.
Speaker 6 (00:41):
This viral load batch of stories hopefully will provide a
bit of a reprieve for all of the really heaviness
of today. We have some funny stories. We have a
We're going to start with a light hearted story that's
going to tug at your heart strings in a good way.
We have a trend of stupid trend alert of course,
and again hopefully this is a welcome distraction for a
(01:06):
lot of the heavier news that's been talked about that
we all obviously are aware of. We're going to start
with a very common practice when you train for a marathon,
when you're a runner of any type, if you exercise
in any way, I can even scale it back to
just simple exercise, which I hope you do. Mo often
stands here at the table and walks in place.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
You know it's really good for you to exercise.
Speaker 6 (01:31):
Often people will have something in their earphones AirPods to
listen to to motivate that sort of activity. Mo, when
you are exercising out in the wild, do you listen
to music? Do you listen to podcasts? Or are you
just listening to nature?
Speaker 3 (01:46):
What's up?
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Usually music?
Speaker 5 (01:48):
It has to be something that I don't have to
concentrate on. Okay, I don't want to have to listen
for content, yeah, to digest or understand. No, just give
me some workout music which allows me to motivate myself
about some perceived wrong about someone who pissed me off
years ago, or.
Speaker 6 (02:07):
Something motivational music. Same for me, I want something that
gets me going. In this case, there's a runner. Her
name on social media is Macy Mexico, and she was
running a marathon. She ran a marathon, not an easy
feat by any stretch of the imagination, and she decided
that she needed something to motivate her. Instead of using music,
(02:29):
Macy asked her friends and family to send her voice
notes that she could then upload to some server, put
it into her Apple AirPods, and replay while she ran
this marathon. So instead of music, she had the voices
of these people she loves so dearly, cheering her on.
I just want to say this is yet another example
(02:51):
of crying over strangers on the Internet, because when I
listened to this, to these little messages, I was just
really taken by how earnest and genuine her friends and
family were.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Let's hear a few clips about that now.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
But it says you got it, you got it, you
got here, almost done, Okay.
Speaker 6 (03:14):
Really made We're so proudly she's running while she's listening.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Yeah, a great.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Pick it up, mazy one, what he did it?
Speaker 7 (03:25):
Mazie, you got it, You're almost done.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
I love you, Love you Summer. The fit is fire
and so close.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Keep reading, so proud of you.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Oh my gosh, baby. One more mile Ron host Ron,
you're turning.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
It says you're turning.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
We're almost too, You're almost to us.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
You got this, Macy, Who's I'm so excited.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
You're just running your little hard away and hopefully those
hills are too brutal out there and you can do.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
All things through, can't They gets the strength.
Speaker 6 (04:06):
When I heard this, it legitimately choked me up. Even
listening back right now, I'm just like, wow, can you
imagine running any stretch, any sort of distance, and that's
what you have in your ears, motivating you and pushing
you along. Well, luckily for Macy, she did have that
Macy Mexico on social media and she finished her marathon
(04:27):
and what she said was record time. It was a
half marathon and she ran it in just over two hours,
which was better.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Than a previous time.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
And she attributes that increase or that success directly to
these audio messages that were playing in her ears.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
So if you need some.
Speaker 6 (04:44):
Motivation instead of listening to music, maybe ask some of
your friends and family to send you some cute little
audio clips. Next story also deals with audio, but it
starts off in a different way. Have you ever heard
of a flash mob? Well, did you want to answer?
Speaker 4 (05:00):
I've ever heard it? There you go.
Speaker 6 (05:02):
I was waiting for you. Okay, So flash mobs are these?
Speaker 8 (05:06):
Are? Are?
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Are these? What would you call?
Speaker 6 (05:08):
Events that are orchestrated with crowds of people? They appear
seemingly out of nowhere. It's all coordinated, choreographed, and it
could be a dance, it could be a song, but
these people come together in a chorus more or less,
and they perform whatever this art is usually song or
dance are both at this public space and others are
(05:30):
invited in to participate, while in this case it involves
legendary band Queen. I Love Queen, You Love Queen, and
Queen is now back on top of the iTunes Top
Songs chart in America because their song Bohemian Rhapsody, which
is now at number seventeen, fifty years after it debuted
(05:52):
on the on the iTunes Top Songs. It's atop the
chart because it was used in a flash mob that
was posted by a man named Julian Cohen, who's known
for live musical performances and live gatherings of performers and singers.
This flash mob was recorded by numerous people and a
(06:14):
professional videographer who then uploaded the footage all around social media.
It was filmed in Paris on September ninth, so just
yesterday and or a couple of days ago, and uploaded yesterday,
and already in one day of being on YouTube, it's
racked up more than half a million views, quickly approaching
one million, and it has gone viral across multiple social
(06:37):
media platforms. Here's a bit of that flash mob with
all these singers and performers who came out of windows
and doors in the middle of this Paris neighborhood to
(07:02):
their people sitting down below, and they're watching, they're eating.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
There's a young man on.
Speaker 6 (07:07):
A carriage, and these performers are just singing. They look
like regular patrons and people are starting to catch on
as more people join the chorus.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
Ready, mo, I like it.
Speaker 6 (07:38):
I want you to sing Mamo not yet, no, wait wait, wait,
here we go.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Mama just killed the bed.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
I can't be the only one.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Sing joined the flash mob.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
Mark not those lyrics today.
Speaker 6 (08:01):
It's a beautiful flash mob. It goes on for a
few minutes.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
But you'd hear this note mom, if you're watching.
Speaker 6 (08:14):
YouTube, it's live here on YouTube.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
It's very good. Again, we can lower it, Tony.
Speaker 6 (08:22):
It's gone viral across multiple social media platforms.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
Up until today, it was probably the most.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
Widely watched viral moment of the last few days, obviously
now being eclipsed by what happened to Charlie Kirk. But
it is a Yeah, it's a beautiful visual. I highly
encourage you to check it out. You can go to
Google or YouTube and type in Bohemian Rhapster slash mob
(08:52):
and maybe Mo will pop up.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
Who knows, No, I've actually sung was on this part
of a jazz corral, my Mom's jazz crawd.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Do you find it easy to get your voice up
that high?
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Yes, you didn't see what he was grabbing to get there?
Speaker 4 (09:05):
A false setu, Yeah, I have to squeeze anything.
Speaker 8 (09:08):
Okay, it's so juvenile you're saying it comes natural to you.
Speaker 5 (09:13):
You know some of the greatest singers of all time.
You're saying a false settle. You never heard of someone
like Smokey Robinson.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Oh yeah, you're the Smokey Robinson of KFI. I think so,
I'll take that.
Speaker 8 (09:24):
I'll accept that, including the latest ton Smokey Robins.
Speaker 6 (09:30):
It's a terrible segue, really quick. Yeah, changed it something
on the other side of the bravery. Come back with
a viral hurry. We have a year old story that's
back in the news. It has to do with being
hit by something and then being charged for being the victim.
And then the last story will end with the latest
TikTok trend and it can get you arrested and probably
(09:53):
should and put on multiple lists.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
I'll tell you what it is when we come back.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Oo, take your hands out of the baby.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Baby, what are you squeezing?
Speaker 1 (10:05):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on Demand from
KFI Am six forty. Now it's Tucking the Viral Lover
Tiffany Live on Camfies Later with mo o Kelly.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
She'll talk about the time this on social media.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Lad with Tiffany Hups.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
KFI Later with mo Kelly Live on YouTube and the
iHeartRadio app. Tiffany Hobbs says, more the viral load.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Here we go with viral stories.
Speaker 6 (10:42):
Some are brand new, some might have happened that day,
that week, and then some like this story are a
year old, even older at times. And what happens is
someone gets a hold of the story, uploads it to
social media, and then it takes off and it goes viral.
That's what happened with the k of this story. It
actually happened in November of last year, so almost a
(11:04):
year ago, in which an ambulance slammed into a bicyclist
in Oregon. Now that collision produced a pretty significant injury
for this bicyclist.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
It broke his nose.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
It also smashed his bike to smithereens and he had
significant cuts and bruises and scrapes and so on. Well,
the ambulance actually stopped. Luckily, it wasn't a hit and
run that would have been really unfortunate. It stopped and
it tended to the man. It's an ambulance. It makes sense.
Why wouldn't they do that? And they actually transported the
(11:40):
man to the nearest hospital. Man's name William Hosts, seventy
one years old, and after being transported to the hospital,
he received all sorts of bandaging and you know, the
regular care that you would get in an event like this.
And he also received a bill for about eighteen hundred
(12:02):
dollars actually one eight hundred and sixty two dollars to
be specific. Now, the bill came because the ambulance said, well,
we transported you, and when we transport anyone.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
You have to foot that bill.
Speaker 6 (12:19):
The bicyclist, William hoas his name is spelled really funky
ho e sc h Hosh, said no, I didn't. I
didn't really agree to be transported. I had no other
way to get there, and you guys assumed responsibility for me,
and in that case you should incur the charges.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
There should be no charges.
Speaker 6 (12:38):
And they went back and forth for a while, with
the ambulance company saying that they were not going to
back down. Well, William host did in fact sue not
for the one thousand, eight hundred and sixty two dollars no,
but for one hundred thousand dollars due to permanent injuries
and medical expenses.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
After going back back and forth for.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
A few months, the lawsuit was settled undisclosed settlement to
William Hosh. But the story has gone viral because people
on the internet found this story and they've shared it
far and wide, and it's been all over social media.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Can I jump?
Speaker 5 (13:17):
This is strange to me because I thought people knew
about this, this is not unusual. When I got hit
by a drunk driver and I was a pedestrian, the
ambulance came and they said, mistere Kelly, we think we
need to take you to the hospital. And they ask you,
you know, whether you're gonna go, and I was him
(13:38):
and haunts like, no, I think I'm okay, and there
are people around me. I was with my fraternity brother
said no, you should go, you know, at least for
the record, And then they took me to the hospital. Then
like three months later, got a bill for like a
thousand dollars, yes, And I was like.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Wait a minute, I was the one who got hit
by a.
Speaker 5 (13:54):
Drunk driver, right, I didn't ask for the ambulance. You
all asked me, you know, to take me. It wasn't
like it was required. And then I get a bill.
So when I see the stories like yeah, you have
to be very clear if and when an ambulance says, hey,
you know, do you think we should take you? Because
(14:15):
they'll ask you that they won't demand. Most times they'll
ask you, and if you say yes, that bill is coming.
Speaker 6 (14:21):
Well, I think in this case, and not to say
or suggests that you're wrong, because you're not at all.
I think in this case the settlement does in fact
reflect some sort of culpability on the ambulance company's part,
where that they decided that they would make it right,
they would do what you know, do good bye by
William Rosch and go ahead or host she's me and
(14:43):
go ahead and try and settle that bill. So eighteen
hundred and sixty two dollars amounted a lot of work,
though a lot more and a lot in absolutely a
lot in and legal bills. But that is the consequence,
and it is a viral story. A year later, our
last story is a new new story.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
It's that one of the.
Speaker 6 (15:01):
Newest, stupidest TikTok trends because we have no shortage of those.
They Oh, this one can get you put on the
registered sex offender list. What yeah, there's a viral TikTok
account featuring what appears to be public urination on Louisiana
(15:24):
State University's campus.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
Oh yeah, that'll do it.
Speaker 6 (15:29):
One TikTok account associated with either a visitor or a
student at LSU has a mast well over twenty thousand
likes and over one hundred and fifty thousand views in
which this person who looks to be younger perhaps a student,
is urinating on a part of LSU's campus.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Who is never urinated publicly tell the truth?
Speaker 3 (15:55):
What's the statute of limitations on that?
Speaker 4 (15:57):
It is put its way? It's expired unless you did
it like last week.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Or something moving along. So it's not just that LSU.
Speaker 6 (16:07):
This is a collegiate or collegiate trend in which it's
happening on other campuses. University of Texas at San Antonio.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
It happens on every college campus.
Speaker 6 (16:17):
But not yes, but videoing recording yourself uploading it, no
share social media, so that.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
Part may not be happening. That's the thing itself is happening.
Speaker 5 (16:29):
It's happening right now my alma mater, Georgetown's campus, right now.
Speaker 6 (16:33):
It's happening right now in front of my building, I imagine.
But the difference is people are again recording themselves, uploading
it for shares and likes. They're going viral because they're
hashtagging it with the trend, and schools are starting to
respond by saying that this is destruction of property at
the health hazards, it defaces property, it violates university policy,
(16:53):
and you can be referred to campus police, and if
you are doing those sorts of things and you get caught,
you can be charged with that sort of indecency that
could lead you to public exposure and being on the
registered sex offender list. And kids are doing this and
in pursuit of likes.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
Thank goodness they didn't have camera phones and social media
when I was in college, because everything they're doing I
was doing, with the exception of photographing it, sharing it
and trying to get you know, likes and hearts for it.
Speaker 6 (17:29):
The difference between them and us is that age age
and no evidence.
Speaker 5 (17:33):
Oh no, no, yeah, because I'm sure if there was
social media back when I was in school with my
poor judgment. Oh absolutely, It's amazing that I'm not in
jail right now.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
Knock on wood, all the stuff I did years ago.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
The night's still young.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
No, no, no, satue limitations. I should be good.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
I should be The night's still young.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
I haven't murdered anyone, So there's.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
The night's still young.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
No no, no, I'm clear.
Speaker 5 (17:58):
I've already researched all the stuff that I've done and
the expiration of the statute of limitations. I haven't killed anyone,
so I don't have to worry about one for life
or anything. No, I'm I'm good.
Speaker 6 (18:07):
Psychologists say if you fantasize about harming someone, it's a
healthy habit because it actually keeps you from committing the
act that you're fantasizing about.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
So that's why Mark Runner still a log.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
There you go, and that's the viral lode.
Speaker 6 (18:19):
You can catch me on Saturday Saturdays with Tiffany right
here from five to seven pm.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
What Mark, that's not how you fantasize about me? Just a.
Speaker 6 (18:30):
Baby baby He's getting up there he's grabbing something.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
I thought you were playing a recording of some castrati
that sounds fantastic.
Speaker 4 (18:40):
Gottro Moosh, Gottro moosh.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
KFI Later with mo Kelly. We're a lot on YouTube
and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
And I was talking to Tiffany Hobbes of the Viral
Load during the break and I'm not going to tell
you all of our conversation, but I did want to
share some of it because we're still watching the news,
and thank you Tiffany for lightening it up with the
Viral Load. But there's still this hall which is hanging
over not only everyone's lives, but just media. And you know,
(19:33):
it was a strange day. I think everyone has to
take stock of where we are in this moment. And
I saw this news story that Ben Shapiro, a conservative commentator,
has canceled his book signing appearance which was coming up
at the Reagan Library. And I'm not going to second
(19:55):
guess whether he should or should not, but I think
it highlights a larger discussion about how we move forward,
what that looks like, what that feels like whether commentators,
and that's inclusive of of myself, whether we pull back
in regard to public appearances, at least for the foreseeable future,
(20:18):
given the hyper partisanship and the undeniable political violence. And
although there's more focus on Charlie Kirk, and I'm not
making a value judgment, you had two yet Minnesota lawmaker
murdered in her own home, Melissa Hartman and her husband
(20:39):
just a couple of months ago. And I'm not trying
to compare or somehow say one life is more important
or valuable than others. I am making the point that
there is growing violence, actual violence, and no one wants
to be the next statistic And if anything, the past
(21:04):
few months have said to me and hopefully to others,
that this is real and this is going to unfortunately
consume America if we don't do something about it. And
that's the collective we and there are a lot of
people who have nothing nice to say about Charlie Kirk,
and his rhetorical history is inarguable and for many people contemptible.
(21:30):
At the same time, we're talking about murder now, we're
not talking about what he had to say. There was
a report of a MSNBC commentator who was fired for
making the argument tonight, Correct me if I'm wrong, Tiffany
or Mark. I just saw the story in passing. I
think it was Matthew Dowd. If I'm not mistaken saying
(21:51):
that Charlie Kirk something like to the effect of this
happened because of his rhetoric. I would never say that,
you know, because you said something, you're going to catch
a bullet. I will say that, by and large, we
have been largely reckless with our rhetoric.
Speaker 6 (22:09):
If I may, it was Matthew Dowd, and I don't
necessarily think that he minced words. I think that because everyone,
and maybe not everyone, but many people are so charged
up that they are unable to process logic because it's
so emotionally heavy right now and rightfully so, it's a
(22:31):
very tense time. But I think that when your words galvanize,
when your words illicit, when your words provoke action that
can be violent, or can be is divisive, can be vitriolic,
then the consequence of that is that those same things
(22:53):
can in fact meet you. And in this case, this
was the utmost extreme example of that.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
Well, that's a very nuanced take but we don't live
in a nuanced amrriage, and.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
You can't be nuanced when you're emotional.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Yeah, you know, And that's why I try to tell people.
Speaker 5 (23:07):
It's like, I'm not running to speculate on the motivations
of the shooter, who we don't know, and we don't
know what or why.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
On its face, it.
Speaker 5 (23:17):
Looks political, if only because it happened at a political event,
But that may not be the reason, and I'm waiting
for the reason. But we live in a time in
which people are more concerned with being first and having
the hot take and talking about this and saying what's
on their mind is free speech, and it's.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
Like, m it doesn't mean being irresponsible.
Speaker 6 (23:37):
I was mentioning to you off air as well that
I have a friend who is a well known lecturer,
has been for twenty five years and travels the country
speaking at colleges and speaking about anti racist practices. It's
something that can be very polarizing, and he said tonight
that he is looking into pulling back completely and moving
(24:01):
his entire operation to Zoom because he just doesn't feel safe.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
I get it, and I started the show tonight talking
about this long continuum of political violence in America just
over the past five years. And the reason I did
that because it didn't come out of nowhere, It didn't
happen recently. It wasn't surprising if you were paying attention,
(24:27):
and I was saying that this portends that there will
be more.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
I'm not hoping for that.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
I am not wish casting for that, but I am
serious as a student of history to know that this
is the trajectory that we're on. It just doesn't stop immediately.
We as the country have to finally be of the
opinion that we've had enough. We have not gotten to
the point where we're saying, Okay, we've had enough of this.
(24:56):
When we get there, then things will begin to change.
And since we're not there, things are not going to change,
and there, unfortunately, will be more of this.
Speaker 6 (25:04):
Retaliation is imminent, whether it's verbally as we're seeing online,
the rhetoric going back and forth between the different sides
of the aisle. On the different sides of the aisle,
everyone's attacking each other, and that's a part of the consequence.
That's probably the first step toward what you're talking about.
And when someone or others decide to take that off
(25:27):
of the proverbial page. Then you have these examples of violence,
and I am like you, Mo. I don't want to
wish cast I don't want to even speak it into
the ether. But I'm not naive to think that there's
not something brewing to avenge what happened today.
Speaker 4 (25:44):
I'll say this.
Speaker 5 (25:45):
My mother gave me this advice a long time ago,
and it is so prescient, it is so appropriate for
this moment. She asked me because I was going through
a difficult time and I felt that I had been wronged,
and she was telling me, do you want to be
right or do you want to be righteous? Very different conception,
(26:07):
and we live in a time where people want to
be right. In other words, we want to blame someone.
We want to tell someone that this is where we're
supposed to live. These people do not belong here. Or
I can't deal with these people. I think they are criminals.
We want to be right, but we're not in any
way interested in being righteous. We can apply that to immigration,
(26:27):
we can apply that to policing in America in our
fight against crime.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
We just want to be right.
Speaker 5 (26:33):
We have no interest in going about it in a
righteous manner. And until for all these supposed Christians out there.
You put it on your social media profiles talking about Oh,
you're a Christian in America.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
First, you love America.
Speaker 5 (26:48):
I want to see righteousness from you, and until I do,
then I don't think you're serious.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
You're gonna want to stay off Twitter. I don't even
get onto it that I left Twitter for that reason. Yeah,
it's a cesspool right now.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Oh, I know.
Speaker 5 (27:04):
I made a conscious effort to not forage out into
the world of social media today because it's only going
to confirm what I feel is worse about America. That's
all that's gonna happen. So I didn't need to see
more of that. I know what the ugliness is being
(27:24):
sprayed out there. I'm fully aware. I don't need to
see this person say it or that person say it.
And I tell you there's certain radio stations and television
stations and cable news I refuse to watch today, one
because I did not want to be influenced by what
other people had to say. And two I kind of
knew what the other people were gonna say and I
wasn't gonna like it. And so when I come to
(27:46):
you tonight, I'm telling you what's on my heart and
on my mind. I'm not responding to anyone. I'm not
referring to anyone's remarks. People all the time say did
you hear? What did you see?
Speaker 2 (27:56):
What?
Speaker 4 (27:56):
So and so said?
Speaker 5 (27:57):
No, I did not, because that it's not necessary for
me to tell you what I think is important in
this moment.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
So to dovetail what you were saying, Tiffany, before we
go to break.
Speaker 5 (28:12):
It's going to get worse before it gets better, because
we have no desire in making it any better, and
unfortunately that's going to have all sorts of really bad
consequences for us individually, collectively and as a nation. I
wish I had some sort of silver lining to this
(28:33):
cloud to offer you, but I don't. Because I've been
talking about this for freaking years, about political violence.
Speaker 4 (28:38):
I have.
Speaker 5 (28:41):
What can I do? It's later with mo Keller. We'll
check in with George Nori. And also we have to
end on an upnote. We have to give away these
tickets to Direct from Sweden a tribute to Abbatt at
the Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts. The performance is
this Sunday, the fifteenth. We're going to give away one
pair tonight. That's coming up next.

Speaker 7 (29:21):

It's a strange and unfortunate day. But there might be
more in the future, unfortunately on this trajectory.
Speaker 9 (29:30):
Unfortunately, on our program tonight, we're going to talk about
the artificial intelligence of course, track the news of the day,
stay on top of that story, and then later on
UFOs on Coast to Coast.
Speaker 5 (29:41):
I'm glad you're talking about UFOs. I assume you saw
the video which was I guess shown before Congress about
this orbit where they had the hell fire missile shot out.
Speaker 7 (29:50):
Unbelievable and it just bounced off it.
Speaker 4 (29:52):
It's like, oh, we are outclassed.
Speaker 7 (29:54):
There's something up there. There's something there.
Speaker 4 (29:57):
Well, there's something down here. I think they're everywhere.

You're on it because I listen to you. George.
Speaker 7 (30:04):
All right, right, friend, see us so bye.
Speaker 5 (30:06):
Before we get out of here, we were talking about
how we're going to give away some tickets. I think
now might be the time, Tony, Why don't you help
me out there? Don't you have some music you're supposed
to get?
Speaker 4 (30:18):
