KFI.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
It's later with Mo Kelly. We're alive everywhere in the
iHeartRadio app. And it's getting hot outside. In fact, it
is hot outside. It's gonna be even hotter come tomorrow, Thursday,
and Friday.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Heat is everywhere in the forecast.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
I would ask Mark Roner to follow up on this,
but he knows as well as I do. It's just
gonna be hot. There's nothing else to really talk about. Yeah,
just break out your cutoffs and your whatever. Those T shirts.
T shirts are with the with the no sleeves that
we can't say the actual name of anymore.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
What muscle shirts? Person beaters? There you go.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
That's the correct domestic partner abuser shirt. No, no, no,
no no. It has to be all inclusive. You can't
be just domestic violence. That intimates that there's a relationship there. Okay,
it's hard to keep up. Person beater is the correct
and current term.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Thank you for that.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Any person you could be in a relationship, you could
be out of relationship. We don't discriminate.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
We strive for accuracy here at cafe. Anybody can get
their ass beat. Uh huh.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
There's a weather alert extreme heat alert for much of
southern California takes effect officially tomorrow and will remain in
place through at least Saturday. Thursday and Friday are expected
to be the peak heat days, with triple digit temperatures
nearly everywhere, with the exception of the coastline. Hires are
(01:44):
going to be potentially between one hundred and six and
one hundred and nine in the western San Fernando Valley
and Anelo Valley and Santa Monica and the beach areas
will be around high seventies Thursday and Friday. And get this,
it's not often you see that there's a slight chance
of thunderstorms, but we will possibly have that in inland
(02:07):
valley regions, including Aneloe Valley on Thursday and Friday afternoons.
So it could be hot, very humid, even may have
some thundershowers. But you know what, I'm not gonna be
here to experience any of it because I'll be on vacation.
Let me just rub it in real quick. Can't wait,
You're the Ted Cruise of KFI, except you're not going
(02:28):
to kankub Oh wait wait wait, I'm not like running
from an emergency or a disaster. It's just hot, Okay, whatever,
you say it's not the same mark, sure, all right.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Also, we're gonna be talking about the.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Ten lowest ranked states in which to live in the
United States. Play schabettes, play schabettes as to which region
they're in. And also the worst LA freeways as ranked
by the LA Times, not just the freeways, but the
section of the freeways, the worst ones that we drive
every single day. In fact, you're probably on them right now.
(03:03):
And did you hear about what's going on in Inglewood
and the surrounding areas? Yes, I live in that area.
Coyotes and feral cats have taken over the area. They
have these feral cats and they're breeding like rabbits, except
their cats. And then you have the coyotes coming in
and eating the feral cats. It's kind of like the
circle of life but not. And it's endangering a lot
(03:25):
of residents and small children. I've told you about the
scourge of coyotes. Now we have to add feral cats
into that. We'll have that for you before the hour
is over. And I don't get it, but each time
we have What's Up with Nick, which is usually Tuesday
nights at nine pm, Nick Poliochini shows his ass up
at like seven pm this early, and there's ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Why are you here?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Because you know I love to feed the later with
Mokelly Crew. So I've got some nostalgia for you from
McDonald's lands heying on right now, so we'll be checking
that out sooner than later. And then I know when
we hit the nine o'clock hour for what's up with Nick?
Speaker 1 (04:06):
That's it. You just brought some food. That's it.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
I brought food. I wait, come on, don't bite the
hand that feeds youre And I was wonder you're going
to tell us about what else is going on? Oh sure, No,
I've got so much else going on. Nine o'clock hour
got a wrap up of Midsommer's Scream, also some teases
of what's coming up at Universal Studios, as well as
freight Fest at six Flags, Magic Mountain, not Scary Farm.
I already went to Okay, Boogie Batches at Disneyland. You know,
(04:29):
I've got everything covered, and it is, whether you like
it or not, Summer ween transitioning into Halloween time coming
up here in the south Land.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Well, that sounds like a lot. Nick.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Maybe you should just go ahead and host the third
hour so I can go home and finish packing.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
I mean, as long as nor is good with the cross,
I'm down.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
I don't know what station management would approve it. It's okay,
you're going on vacation. Yeah, I want to be able
to come back.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
I do want you to come back, so yes, but
I will definitely be holding it down in that nine
o'clock hour when we come back.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
The ten lowest ranked US states to live in place
your bets. It's Later with Moke I Am six forty
Live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
Forty Later with Bo Kelly.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
We're live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Let's say you hate California, and a lot of people
who hate California right about now.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
I get it.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
There's some things wrong with the state. And let's say
you are of the opinion it's time to leave, time
to move out, time to relocate. Let me give you
ten states you would like to avoid. According to this
new wallet hub study. We love wallet Hub. It ranks
all fifty states from best to worst places to live,
(05:56):
using what it calls key indicators of liveability. Housing quality
of public education, who needs education, healthcare, and quality of life.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Also.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
These were based on factors such as homeownership rate, unemployment rate,
high school graduation rate, life expectancy.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
And average hours worked per week. YadA YadA, YadA, blah
blah blah.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
These are the ten lowest ranked US states to live
as of twenty twenty five. According to wallet Hub, we're
going from the bad to the horrendously bad. So coming
in at number ten. Hey, Tony, tup my computer please?
I need my computer Tonday. We're doing a show here.
(06:40):
Can I have my computer?
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Please?
Speaker 2 (06:41):
It's just like having Fush with us again. Can I
put my computer? Now?
Speaker 1 (06:45):
All right? Here we go, Come here a number ten?
Speaker 5 (06:52):
I love blah blah.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Keith Jackson would not approve. I think I see where
this is heading. Early on, early, get into the giving
the gab away very early. In the Education and Health Index,
which looks at factors like life expectancy and the share
of the population aged twenty five and older with a
high school or higher education degree, the state ranked fifth worst.
(07:16):
The state was also ranked fiftieth in the US for
public school education, and a World Population Review study, it's
the ninth worst economy which factored in markers like unemployment
and poverty rates, coming in at number nine of the
worst states in the Union to live according to the
wallet Hub.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
West Virginia.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
West Virginia had the highest home ownership rate in the
wallet Hub study, but it also had the fifth lowest
crime rate in the study. You think that's pretty good,
but the state ranked poorly in education and health and
quality of life among all states. It had the fourth
highest percentage of its popat living in poverty.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Come again, number eight.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
No, I won't sing the song, but it's Oklahoma ranked
as a seventh worst state in the education and health index.
When looking at the population of insured residents in each state,
Oklahoma had the second lowest percentage of insured people, only
behind wait for.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
It, Texas.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Oklahoma came forty ninth out of fifty states on public
school resources and safety in the World Population Review study, coming.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
In number seven of the worst states to live.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
In twenty twenty five, South Carolina was ranked within the
top ten most affordable states, but that wasn't enough to
make up for its low rankings in other categories. It
was ranked the fifth unsafest state in the country, and
it was within the ten worst states in the education
(09:04):
and health index. I have a feeling a lot of
the places on this list are places where you could
afford to buy a house, which is great, but then
you'd have to live there, which is not great.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Pretty much, if you.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Never have to leave your house and you could have
everything shipped by Amazon in forty five minutes, then maybe maybe,
But even then, you don't want to leave your house.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Coming here, Number six.
Speaker 6 (09:30):
Nevada, I could absolutely see that. No, yeah, yeah, no, no, no,
you don't want to live in Nevada. No no, there's
literally nothing to do in Nevada except for gamble and
if you're not there for the.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Excuse me, strip club, No no, no, yeah, there's legalized prostitution,
your cives prostitution.
Speaker 6 (09:48):
If you're not there for that, I promise you, there's
nothing you're going to do out there. Mark, Well, you
kind of buried the lead with the prostitution. Okay, Well,
if you want that, you can just cross the border.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Well I didn't say I wanted that. I just think
that's something you want right up top, that's what she said.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
The state's economy is also ranked as the seventh worst
in the country. That makes sense, and the state is
in the top ten unsafest in the US, coming at
number five for the worst places to live in the country. Alaska,
for a bunch of obvious reasons, worst state for quality
of life and income growth. It had the lowest rate
(10:26):
of restaurants per capita, and that its residents worked the
highest number of hours a week when compared to all states,
but it had the fourth best economy for whatever it's worth,
coming in number four.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
The worst. Fourth worst state in the country to live.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Mississippi, And to confirm marked suspicion, it's a shock. Mississippi
is ranked as the eighth most affordable US state. It
is found to have the second lowest quality of life
out of every US state, damn, and this economy ranking
fell within the bottom ten. People in the state work
the fourth highest number of hours weekly out of every
(11:08):
US state, and Mississippi also has the fifth lowest percentage
of insured population.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
And their.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Education level is like absolutely in the track. Well, come on,
that's that's understood, you know, that's that's assumed. Its Mississippi
the third lowest of diplomas. You're talking like eighth grade, right, yeah,
coming at number three. Ar Kansas. Arkansas has the third
(11:40):
worst quality of life out of every US state. Arksas
was found to be the sixth unsafest, and it ranked
within the bottom ten for education, health, and economy. But
you can get a palatialist state for three hundred and
fifty thousand dollars, then there's that. Coming at number two
of the worst states in which to live in the country,
(12:05):
Louisiana found to have the worst economy out of every
US state. Louisiana ranks is the second worst state when
it comes to education and health, as well as percentage
of population living in poverty. The state, which was ranked
as the worst US state to live in last year,
also has the third highest crime rate and its residents
worked the highest number of hours weekly.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
But you know, still got Marti grass. What was the
crime rate again? Did we send some guard troops there? No,
we did not. Did we do anything?
Speaker 2 (12:33):
No, No, we did not. Okay, thank you for asking that.
We need to stay up on this. Maybe you know,
we'll do something in New Orleans and Shreveport and Bojah City.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
It can be hard to keep track. I just want clarity,
that's all.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Did you hear that the DOJ is now investigating the
crime statistics in Washington DC because they.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Think they're fake. Yes I did. In fact, yes, oh boy.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
And coming in number one the worst state in which
to live in the United.
Speaker 7 (13:06):
States New Mexico.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
New Mexico ranked is the worst US state to live
in twenty twenty five. It also has the highest crime
rate out of any US state. No National Guard troops
are on the way, and was ranked as the second unsafest.
It also has the third worst education in health ranking
and the third highest share of its population living in poverty.
The state was also found to have the worst public
(13:43):
K through twelve school performance out of every US state
in the country.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Breaking bad doesn't drive up their score just a tiny bit.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Well, you know, yeah, the drug scene is pretty robust
in New Mexico.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
I'm confused. Well, I swear you've gone through. You gave
us the top ten. I'm looking hard. I don't see
this s whole called California.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Nope.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
So interesting, we're not in the bottom ten at least
interesting Nope, nope. And I assume Washington, DC could have
been considered even though it's not a state, but it's
in the United States.
Speaker 6 (14:19):
I don't know if you would think with all of
the the trashing of the State America Number one.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Yeah, I know, I'm just curious. Look, I just talk
on the radio, Okay, that's all I do. I have
no control over the crime if I am six forty
one Live Everywhere I Heart Radio App. And when we
come back, we have a continuing thing. I know California
felt left out no more. We're going to talk about
the worst LA freeways as ranked by LA Times.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
KFI. Mister bo Kelly here, we're live everywherey iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Video subcasts will return after I've returned from vacation, which
will be the end of the month Labor Day. As
a matter of fact, and I'm quite sure you're either
on the freeway right now, or you recently got off
the freeway, or you're getting ready to get on the freeway.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Heaven forbid.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
We all know that there are some real perilous journeys
out there. You're dodging obstacles, they're crazy drivers, they're people
giving each other runners out there. It's an unpleasant experience.
But we've come across this list from the LA Times.
As far as what are the worst portions of LA freeways.
(15:49):
It's not just the ten freeways, so it's not the
whole one. It's a section of each freeway that the
LA Times has set aside as the worst of the worst.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
And here's what they did.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
They took into account from Caltran's Performance Measurement System data
average speed the number of vehicle miles of travel, divided
by vehicle hours of travel or Q, which I'm told
is a common metric in traffic studies, delays, vehicle hours
of delay below sixty miles an hour, or total hours
(16:22):
drivers would have saved had the road been moving at
sixty miles an hour, which is never lost productivity, lost
hours of work due to slowdowns assuming sixty miles an
hours the best case, and fatal crashes the number of
fatal crashes on a road in a given year. So
here are the ten worst I'll say, not only freeways,
(16:42):
but sections of those freeways given those parameters, coming in
at ten as as far as the worst sections of
Southern California freeway, the one on one freeway between Boil
Heights to Ventura average speed fifty four miles an hour,
(17:04):
the third slowest, DeLay's third most productivity twelfth most and
fatal crashes thirty seven and twenty twenty two tenth most
out of twenty twenty five, coming in at number nine
of the worst LA portions of the freeways, the Coast
(17:27):
of Mason Freeway, the seventeen point nine miles connecting Newport
Beach to Orange, average speed fifty seven miles an hour, twelfth,
slowest DeLay's, tenth, most lost productivity, eleventh most, and fatal
crashes only six in twenty twenty two, which is fifteenth most,
coming in number eight. The Pomona Freeway, the seventy point
(17:55):
six miles dam connecting East LA and Beaumont. Average speed
fifty six miles an hour, eighth, slowest delays, ninth most
lost productivity, fifth most fatal crashes thirty in.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Twenty twenty two, the eleventh most.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
And coming in number seven, The fifty seven Freeway, the
twenty four point one miles from Orange to Glendora, average
speed fifty seven miles an hour, thirteenth, slowest delays, thirteenth,
most loss productivity, fourth most fatal crashes seven in twenty
(18:36):
twenty two, coming in number six. Yes this is my route, Yes,
this is my commute. The one ten Freeway, Harbor Freeway,
the thirty one point eight miles connecting San Pedro to Pasadena,
and the lord is trying to get through downtown. Average
(18:58):
speed fifty four miles an hour, the fourth slowest delays, sixth,
most loss productivity, eighteenth, most fatal crashes seventeen in twenty
twenty two. And coming here number five the seven ten
(19:18):
Freeway twenty four miles from Long Beach to Alhambra. Ever
speed fifty four miles an hour, fifth, slowest DeLay's, fourth,
most lost productivity, seventeenth, most fatal crashes nineteen in twenty
twenty two.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
What's that number five? Number four? It's five, okay, My
numbers are often. Come here in number four the ninety one.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Freeway, the fifty nine miles from Long Beach to Buena Park.
Everspeed fifty six miles hour, ninth, slowest delays, eighth, most
lost productivity, seventh, most fatal crashes thirty five in twenty
twenty two, which is the sixth most. And I think
this is number three. Oh, you have my numbers off right.
(20:16):
Come in number three the four or five Freeway everyone
loves it, seventy three miles from San Fernando to Irvine.
If you should dare to drive that straight average speed
fifty three miles an hour.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
That's a damn lie.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
There's no way you can average fifty three miles an
hour at any time on the four or five anywhere. Nope,
Now I may be wrong. Oh oh, Bellio lives out
that way. She probably drives it every single day, Tony.
Do you drive the four or five every single day?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Thankfully? No, the most I use the five or the
ninety one, which you're both awful.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Yeah, but you're not averaging fifty miles an hour those Oh.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
God, maybe at four o'clock in the morning, okay.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Coming in number two of the worst sections of Southern
California freeway the six oh five Freeway, the twenty eight
miles between Long Beach and Towarty average speed fifty four
miles an hour, sixth slowest delays, fifth most lost productivity,
(21:27):
third most fatal crashes fifteen and twenty twenty two, eighth most,
and coming in number one of the worst Southern California
freeway stretch, the ten Freeway from the Beach through the city.
(21:58):
Average speed fifty two miles an hour. That's a lie.
The slowest out of all the freeways delays worst of
twenty five of the top twenty five. Yes, loss productivity,
eighth most fatal crashes. Get this, ninety in twenty twenty
two alone. Ninety just driving on the ten Freeway. And
(22:21):
did you know that it was originally known as the
Christopher Columbus trans Continental Highway.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
I did not know that of a mouseful.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah, yeah, Christopher Columbus trans Continental Highway.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
The ten sounds so much better, it sure does.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Do you know the names of the actual the actual
names of the freeways? Like the one ten is the
Harbor Freeway? I think the Harbor Game in Pasadena, yep?
Speaker 3 (22:45):
Okay, I mean you have to think eighteen years of
a traffic reporter for iHeartRadio.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Can you tell us what's the name of the four
or five freeway?
Speaker 2 (22:52):
For?
Speaker 3 (22:52):
It depends because you've got the La Portion and the
Ani Well tan An freeways.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
The five, I mean, but like this, like the Glenn
Anderson the.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Right, you know, I think the four H five The
official name is the Homicidal Douche Lord Freeway.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
Okay, I don't know if that's right. No, it sounds right.
You'll have to look that up.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
I guess I could be what is the official name
of the four to five Freeway.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
I'm a side four five freeway. Official name is San
Diego Freeway.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
This was called doesn't have like a fancy that seems
less accurately because it right.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
But you have to think too. Back in the day,
San Diego is a whole different concept. Wait, I'm looking back.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
One free was named the Los Angeles Freeway, and all
these mother fathers run through Los Angeles. So the fourie
fruit was called the San Diego Freeway because it in
short of San Diego.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Correct, It originally took you towards San Diego. That was
the whole point of that, because the foural five comes
up on the Altoro Y where the four and the
five meet meets.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
And you're not near San Diego. No, you're right.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
But this is even the more wild part because I
didn't even realize that we had the Santa Ana Army
Air Base during World War Two, like five freeway right,
correct Santana's the five Freeway. But it's funny because all
of that, like just thinking about how things are and
where they went. So I agree with you, four oh five.
All it doesn't get you the five to go down
to San Diego.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
See, I don't know. This is not like Mark.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
I don't think you're correct, Like I think we need
a focus group or the.
Speaker 6 (24:28):
I don't know the Mark Ridley Thomas Expressway. Something's got
to be some name. The which one for the five?
The San Diego Freeway, that's what they named it. The
San Diego Freeway didn't even touch San Diego though. About
like the whipping around you and cutting you off freeway.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Not on the San Diego four oh five. No one's
whipping around you.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
That's why they call it the parking lot, the unofficial name.
This is quite frustrated wing lot, because you drive. If
you're coming over the hill, coming over to the west
side the four five south on like a Friday, you
could get out and walk faster, no exaggeration, No, it's true.
You can actually get out of your car and walk
up to the next car ahead of you and give
them the finger and then walk back to your own car.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
You know that because you've done it, haven't you. I
fantasized about it.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
That turns you on. I wouldn't exactly say that. No,
I'm not gonna ask anymore.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Kat six forty. We live everybody iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Y live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
And I have told you time and time again that
where I live, which is just outside of Englewood, is
being i'll say invaded by a lot of coyotes. I've
shown the videos to various people in the studio. They
are everywhere in my area. It seems like there's a
den every three or four blocks. And now it's becoming
(26:08):
such an issue that it's getting more and more news coverage.
And yeah, we have fun with it with the issue,
but I've said, eventually someone's child is going to get attacked,
and let me put it this a way, the right child,
not just any child, but the right child.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
And then they will start taking this seriously.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
ABC had a report to think Katla as well, talking
about how residents in Inglewood said that they're fed up
with two things.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
First, they have a feral cat.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Invasion as it's being described, where cats are just multiplying
and they're just running them up in the streets. And
that's also turned into a food source for the coyotes.
So you have these wild cats, you have these wild
coyotes just running around the city creating mayhem, and the
coyotes are not afraid of people at all anymore.
Speaker 6 (27:02):
Last night, leaving here, a smaller coyote ran right by
the door downstairs, and I said, oh, I damn it,
coyote's time is now, and me pull out my pepper
spray walk outside. I see it just kind of trotting
down over towards Morton's. Like I was about to go
get some pickup or something. I'm like, this is what's
happening with this coyote? Is, you know, dining out? I
(27:24):
see it and I said, okay, so it's fine. It's
getting a little further away. It slows down and turns
to look at me, turns around. I'm like, hmm, coyote's
feeling a little testy. Another coyote comes out back up.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (27:40):
I'm thinking to myself, oh snap, do I slowly back
up and try to go back into the door. I said, no, hell,
I gotta get out of here.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
It's late.
Speaker 6 (27:47):
I'm going to try to make a break for the
stairs now. Today I'm ready.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
You're not gonna outrun a coyote.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
I'm not.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
I know, yes, I know, that.
Speaker 6 (27:56):
But you know, I figure, you know, I made loud
stomping sounds as I'm going, and coyote doing all that
kind of stuff. I had a bob plastic bottle which
I'm crunching by of noise, and I'm thinking of myself,
you know, make yourself sound scary. Big monster's coming out.
But tonight I got my bear spray with me. So Derek, Coyote,
I'm going to spray you and then quite possibly smash
(28:18):
you over their head with one of those statues or something. Downstairs,
Coyote is gonna be dead in the court.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
You know they're gonna be waiting on you. They know
where you work, they know what to get off of work.
If they're waiting you for the walk through those doors,
and then you'll be committed to the situation. They know,
they know where the garage is, they know you're walking
to your car. They're gonna come four or five deep.
Speaker 6 (28:40):
And it's not like I can get into the elevator
and it's gonna close fast enough before they can all
jump in and Bobby in the elevator, get me on
the stairs going down. You're right, You're right, And coyotes
are smart and they are vengeful.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
I used to They used to leave chickens in my
yard all the time.
Speaker 6 (28:57):
Again, Look, I remember the last time that we talked
about this is before the Alta Dina burning. Last time
we talked about coyotes on the radio. We were threatening
to do what we planned on doing to a coyote
if it ever ran up on us. Right, come outside
in the morning, and there's dead chicken pieces all in
(29:17):
the yard, not in anyone else's yard, just in mind,
as if it was a warning to me to like
leave coyotes out my mouth.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Oh, if you don't know, when a coyote has killed
an animal, they'll usually eat it right there. When you
come out, you just see like bones and parts just
sitting right there.
Speaker 6 (29:36):
They left enough for me to know that this is
a bird, and they leave it in the same spot.
There's no chickens in my neighbor. There's no neighbor next
door anywhere near me.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
There's got you.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
Where are you getting the chicken and then bringing it
to this yard as a warning what could.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Have been a horsehead in your bed.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
It doesn't sound like you got the message either, Like
they were sizing up the menu last night. Now you
still didn't get them. They coyotes talk, they know who
you are.
Speaker 6 (30:02):
And for one to run by the door, it was
kind of like one of those like here he comes,
here it comes, and it's like it just kind of
just went far enough down where if it wanted to,
we could have turned around. It could have turned around,
and it stood there looking like literally menacing. But it
was small, and I'm like, I'm not worried about you
until the bigger one came out.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
That's that's right, that's right. You think you have an advantage,
and then all of a sudden you know.
Speaker 6 (30:26):
They're howling and that you know that nato to make
when they're being murdered by coyotes.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
I hear it just about every night, and it's horrified.
It's absolutely horrified. They killed a cat, like not too
far from my house last night. It was loud enough
where knew it was within one hundred feet and you
hear them with their friends and family.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yeah, it's it's a horrible, horrible sound, jeez. And it's
going to get worse.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Going back to the story in Inglewood, it's going to
get worse because no one's really taking it seriously and
till someone takes it. Seriously, you're gonna have these coyotes
just running up and down the street. Legally, you can't
do anything to them. Legally, I'm not saying you should
do anything illegal to them, but if you should happen
to accidentally unintentionally run them over with.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Your car, save a v Well.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
Tula just showed all you need is a plastic bottle
to crinkle, because that's known to terrify dangerous wild animals.
Speaker 6 (31:22):
We just recently talked about what to do when we
were approached by wild animal.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
You gotta make yourself bigger and louder and scary. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
I'm not gonna try that with a bear. I'm just
not coyote. I'm gonna fight not with a bear. No,
not at all. It's laid with Mokelly. I'll fight with Mark. No,
you won't, Yes, I will. Don't crinkle a bottle at you,

just break out your cutoffs and your whatever. Those T shirts.
T shirts are with the with the no sleeves that
we can't say the actual name of anymore.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
What muscle shirts? Person beaters? There you go.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
That's the correct domestic partner abuser shirt. No, no, no,
no no. It has to be all inclusive. You can't
be just domestic violence. That intimates that there's a relationship there. Okay,
it's hard to keep up. Person beater is the correct
and current term.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Thank you for that.

There's a weather alert extreme heat alert for much of
southern California takes effect officially tomorrow and will remain in
place through at least Saturday. Thursday and Friday are expected
to be the peak heat days, with triple digit temperatures
nearly everywhere, with the exception of the coastline. Hires are
(01:44):
going to be potentially between one hundred and six and
one hundred and nine in the western San Fernando Valley
and Anelo Valley and Santa Monica and the beach areas
will be around high seventies Thursday and Friday. And get this,
it's not often you see that there's a slight chance
of thunderstorms, but we will possibly have that in inland
(02:07):
valley regions, including Aneloe Valley on Thursday and Friday afternoons.
So it could be hot, very humid, even may have
some thundershowers. But you know what, I'm not gonna be
here to experience any of it because I'll be on vacation.
Let me just rub it in real quick. Can't wait,
You're the Ted Cruise of KFI, except you're not going

you say it's not the same mark, sure, all right.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Also, we're gonna be talking about the.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Ten lowest ranked states in which to live in the
United States. Play schabettes, play schabettes as to which region
they're in. And also the worst LA freeways as ranked
by the LA Times, not just the freeways, but the
section of the freeways, the worst ones that we drive
every single day. In fact, you're probably on them right now.
(03:03):
And did you hear about what's going on in Inglewood
and the surrounding areas? Yes, I live in that area.
Coyotes and feral cats have taken over the area. They
have these feral cats and they're breeding like rabbits, except
their cats. And then you have the coyotes coming in
and eating the feral cats. It's kind of like the
circle of life but not. And it's endangering a lot
(03:25):
of residents and small children. I've told you about the
scourge of coyotes. Now we have to add feral cats
into that. We'll have that for you before the hour
is over. And I don't get it, but each time
we have What's Up with Nick, which is usually Tuesday
nights at nine pm, Nick Poliochini shows his ass up
at like seven pm this early, and there's ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Why are you here?
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Because you know I love to feed the later with
Mokelly Crew. So I've got some nostalgia for you from
McDonald's lands heying on right now, so we'll be checking
that out sooner than later. And then I know when
we hit the nine o'clock hour for what's up with Nick?
Speaker 1 (04:06):
That's it. You just brought some food. That's it.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
I brought food. I wait, come on, don't bite the
hand that feeds youre And I was wonder you're going
to tell us about what else is going on? Oh sure, No,
I've got so much else going on. Nine o'clock hour
got a wrap up of Midsommer's Scream, also some teases
of what's coming up at Universal Studios, as well as
freight Fest at six Flags, Magic Mountain, not Scary Farm.
I already went to Okay, Boogie Batches at Disneyland. You know,

I've got everything covered, and it is, whether you like
it or not, Summer ween transitioning into Halloween time coming
up here in the south Land.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Well, that sounds like a lot. Nick.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Maybe you should just go ahead and host the third
hour so I can go home and finish packing.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
I mean, as long as nor is good with the cross,
I'm down.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
I don't know what station management would approve it. It's okay,
you're going on vacation. Yeah, I want to be able
to come back.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
I do want you to come back, so yes, but
I will definitely be holding it down in that nine
o'clock hour when we come back.

Let's say you hate California, and a lot of people
who hate California right about now.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
I get it.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
There's some things wrong with the state. And let's say
you are of the opinion it's time to leave, time
to move out, time to relocate. Let me give you
ten states you would like to avoid. According to this
new wallet hub study. We love wallet Hub. It ranks
all fifty states from best to worst places to live,
(05:56):
using what it calls key indicators of liveability. Housing quality
of public education, who needs education, healthcare, and quality of life.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Also.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
These were based on factors such as homeownership rate, unemployment rate,
high school graduation rate, life expectancy.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
And average hours worked per week. YadA YadA, YadA, blah
blah blah.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
These are the ten lowest ranked US states to live
as of twenty twenty five. According to wallet Hub, we're
going from the bad to the horrendously bad. So coming
in at number ten. Hey, Tony, tup my computer please?
I need my computer Tonday. We're doing a show here.
(06:40):
Can I have my computer?
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Please?
Speaker 2 (06:41):
It's just like having Fush with us again. Can I
put my computer? Now?
Speaker 1 (06:45):
All right? Here we go, Come here a number ten?
Speaker 5 (06:52):
I love blah blah.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Keith Jackson would not approve. I think I see where
this is heading. Early on, early, get into the giving
the gab away very early. In the Education and Health Index,
which looks at factors like life expectancy and the share
of the population aged twenty five and older with a
high school or higher education degree, the state ranked fifth worst.
(07:16):
The state was also ranked fiftieth in the US for
public school education, and a World Population Review study, it's
the ninth worst economy which factored in markers like unemployment
and poverty rates, coming in at number nine of the
worst states in the Union to live according to the
wallet Hub.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
West Virginia.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
West Virginia had the highest home ownership rate in the
wallet Hub study, but it also had the fifth lowest
crime rate in the study. You think that's pretty good,
but the state ranked poorly in education and health and
quality of life among all states. It had the fourth
highest percentage of its popat living in poverty.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Come again, number eight.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
No, I won't sing the song, but it's Oklahoma ranked
as a seventh worst state in the education and health index.
When looking at the population of insured residents in each state,
Oklahoma had the second lowest percentage of insured people, only
behind wait for.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
It, Texas.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Oklahoma came forty ninth out of fifty states on public
school resources and safety in the World Population Review study, coming.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
In number seven of the worst states to live.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
In twenty twenty five, South Carolina was ranked within the
top ten most affordable states, but that wasn't enough to
make up for its low rankings in other categories. It
was ranked the fifth unsafest state in the country, and
it was within the ten worst states in the education
(09:04):
and health index. I have a feeling a lot of
the places on this list are places where you could
afford to buy a house, which is great, but then
you'd have to live there, which is not great.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Pretty much, if you.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Never have to leave your house and you could have
everything shipped by Amazon in forty five minutes, then maybe maybe,
But even then, you don't want to leave your house.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Coming here, Number six.
Speaker 6 (09:30):
Nevada, I could absolutely see that. No, yeah, yeah, no, no, no,
you don't want to live in Nevada. No no, there's
literally nothing to do in Nevada except for gamble and
if you're not there for the.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Excuse me, strip club, No no, no, yeah, there's legalized prostitution,
your cives prostitution.
Speaker 6 (09:48):
If you're not there for that, I promise you, there's
nothing you're going to do out there. Mark, Well, you
kind of buried the lead with the prostitution. Okay, Well,
if you want that, you can just cross the border.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Well I didn't say I wanted that. I just think
that's something you want right up top, that's what she said.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
The state's economy is also ranked as the seventh worst
in the country. That makes sense, and the state is
in the top ten unsafest in the US, coming at
number five for the worst places to live in the country. Alaska,
for a bunch of obvious reasons, worst state for quality
of life and income growth. It had the lowest rate
(10:26):
of restaurants per capita, and that its residents worked the
highest number of hours a week when compared to all states,
but it had the fourth best economy for whatever it's worth,
coming in number four.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
The worst. Fourth worst state in the country to live.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Mississippi, And to confirm marked suspicion, it's a shock. Mississippi
is ranked as the eighth most affordable US state. It
is found to have the second lowest quality of life
out of every US state, damn, and this economy ranking
fell within the bottom ten. People in the state work
the fourth highest number of hours weekly out of every
(11:08):
US state, and Mississippi also has the fifth lowest percentage
of insured population.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
And their.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Education level is like absolutely in the track. Well, come on,
that's that's understood, you know, that's that's assumed. Its Mississippi
the third lowest of diplomas. You're talking like eighth grade, right, yeah,
coming at number three. Ar Kansas. Arkansas has the third
(11:40):
worst quality of life out of every US state. Arksas
was found to be the sixth unsafest, and it ranked
within the bottom ten for education, health, and economy. But
you can get a palatialist state for three hundred and
fifty thousand dollars, then there's that. Coming at number two
of the worst states in which to live in the country,
(12:05):
Louisiana found to have the worst economy out of every
US state. Louisiana ranks is the second worst state when
it comes to education and health, as well as percentage
of population living in poverty. The state, which was ranked
as the worst US state to live in last year,
also has the third highest crime rate and its residents
worked the highest number of hours weekly.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
But you know, still got Marti grass. What was the
crime rate again? Did we send some guard troops there? No,
we did not. Did we do anything?
Speaker 2 (12:33):
No, No, we did not. Okay, thank you for asking that.
We need to stay up on this. Maybe you know,
we'll do something in New Orleans and Shreveport and Bojah City.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
It can be hard to keep track. I just want clarity,
that's all.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Did you hear that the DOJ is now investigating the
crime statistics in Washington DC because they.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Think they're fake. Yes I did. In fact, yes, oh boy.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
And coming in number one the worst state in which
to live in the United.
Speaker 7 (13:06):
States New Mexico.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
New Mexico ranked is the worst US state to live
in twenty twenty five. It also has the highest crime
rate out of any US state. No National Guard troops
are on the way, and was ranked as the second unsafest.
It also has the third worst education in health ranking
and the third highest share of its population living in poverty.
The state was also found to have the worst public
(13:43):
K through twelve school performance out of every US state
in the country.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Breaking bad doesn't drive up their score just a tiny bit.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Well, you know, yeah, the drug scene is pretty robust
in New Mexico.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
I'm confused. Well, I swear you've gone through. You gave
us the top ten. I'm looking hard. I don't see
this s whole called California.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Nope.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
So interesting, we're not in the bottom ten at least
interesting Nope, nope. And I assume Washington, DC could have
been considered even though it's not a state, but it's
in the United States.
Speaker 6 (14:19):
I don't know if you would think with all of
the the trashing of the State America Number one.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Yeah, I know, I'm just curious. Look, I just talk
on the radio, Okay, that's all I do. I have
no control over the crime if I am six forty
one Live Everywhere I Heart Radio App. And when we
come back, we have a continuing thing. I know California
felt left out no more. We're going to talk about
the worst LA freeways as ranked by LA Times.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
KFI. Mister bo Kelly here, we're live everywherey iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Video subcasts will return after I've returned from vacation, which
will be the end of the month Labor Day. As
a matter of fact, and I'm quite sure you're either
on the freeway right now, or you recently got off
the freeway, or you're getting ready to get on the freeway.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Heaven forbid.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
We all know that there are some real perilous journeys
out there. You're dodging obstacles, they're crazy drivers, they're people
giving each other runners out there. It's an unpleasant experience.
But we've come across this list from the LA Times.
As far as what are the worst portions of LA freeways.
(15:49):
It's not just the ten freeways, so it's not the
whole one. It's a section of each freeway that the
LA Times has set aside as the worst of the worst.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
And here's what they did.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
They took into account from Caltran's Performance Measurement System data
average speed the number of vehicle miles of travel, divided
by vehicle hours of travel or Q, which I'm told
is a common metric in traffic studies, delays, vehicle hours
of delay below sixty miles an hour, or total hours
(16:22):
drivers would have saved had the road been moving at
sixty miles an hour, which is never lost productivity, lost
hours of work due to slowdowns assuming sixty miles an
hours the best case, and fatal crashes the number of
fatal crashes on a road in a given year. So
here are the ten worst I'll say, not only freeways,
(16:42):
but sections of those freeways given those parameters, coming in
at ten as as far as the worst sections of
Southern California freeway, the one on one freeway between Boil
Heights to Ventura average speed fifty four miles an hour,
(17:04):
the third slowest, DeLay's third most productivity twelfth most and
fatal crashes thirty seven and twenty twenty two tenth most
out of twenty twenty five, coming in at number nine
of the worst LA portions of the freeways, the Coast
(17:27):
of Mason Freeway, the seventeen point nine miles connecting Newport
Beach to Orange, average speed fifty seven miles an hour, twelfth,
slowest DeLay's, tenth, most lost productivity, eleventh most, and fatal
crashes only six in twenty twenty two, which is fifteenth most,
coming in number eight. The Pomona Freeway, the seventy point
(17:55):
six miles dam connecting East LA and Beaumont. Average speed
fifty six miles an hour, eighth, slowest delays, ninth most
lost productivity, fifth most fatal crashes thirty in.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Twenty twenty two, the eleventh most.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
And coming in number seven, The fifty seven Freeway, the
twenty four point one miles from Orange to Glendora, average
speed fifty seven miles an hour, thirteenth, slowest delays, thirteenth,
most loss productivity, fourth most fatal crashes seven in twenty
(18:36):
twenty two, coming in number six. Yes this is my route, Yes,
this is my commute. The one ten Freeway, Harbor Freeway,
the thirty one point eight miles connecting San Pedro to Pasadena,
and the lord is trying to get through downtown. Average
(18:58):
speed fifty four miles an hour, the fourth slowest delays, sixth,
most loss productivity, eighteenth, most fatal crashes seventeen in twenty
twenty two. And coming here number five the seven ten
(19:18):
Freeway twenty four miles from Long Beach to Alhambra. Ever
speed fifty four miles an hour, fifth, slowest DeLay's, fourth,
most lost productivity, seventeenth, most fatal crashes nineteen in twenty
twenty two.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
What's that number five? Number four? It's five, okay, My
numbers are often. Come here in number four the ninety one.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Freeway, the fifty nine miles from Long Beach to Buena Park.
Everspeed fifty six miles hour, ninth, slowest delays, eighth, most
lost productivity, seventh, most fatal crashes thirty five in twenty
twenty two, which is the sixth most. And I think
this is number three. Oh, you have my numbers off right.
(20:16):
Come in number three the four or five Freeway everyone
loves it, seventy three miles from San Fernando to Irvine.
If you should dare to drive that straight average speed
fifty three miles an hour.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
That's a damn lie.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
There's no way you can average fifty three miles an
hour at any time on the four or five anywhere. Nope,
Now I may be wrong. Oh oh, Bellio lives out
that way. She probably drives it every single day, Tony.
Do you drive the four or five every single day?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Thankfully? No, the most I use the five or the
ninety one, which you're both awful.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Yeah, but you're not averaging fifty miles an hour those Oh.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
God, maybe at four o'clock in the morning, okay.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Coming in number two of the worst sections of Southern
California freeway the six oh five Freeway, the twenty eight
miles between Long Beach and Towarty average speed fifty four
miles an hour, sixth slowest delays, fifth most lost productivity,
(21:27):
third most fatal crashes fifteen and twenty twenty two, eighth most,
and coming in number one of the worst Southern California
freeway stretch, the ten Freeway from the Beach through the city.
(21:58):
Average speed fifty two miles an hour. That's a lie.
The slowest out of all the freeways delays worst of
twenty five of the top twenty five. Yes, loss productivity,
eighth most fatal crashes. Get this, ninety in twenty twenty
two alone. Ninety just driving on the ten Freeway. And
(22:21):
did you know that it was originally known as the
Christopher Columbus trans Continental Highway.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
I did not know that of a mouseful.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah, yeah, Christopher Columbus trans Continental Highway.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
The ten sounds so much better, it sure does.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Do you know the names of the actual the actual
names of the freeways? Like the one ten is the
Harbor Freeway? I think the Harbor Game in Pasadena, yep?
Speaker 3 (22:45):
Okay, I mean you have to think eighteen years of
a traffic reporter for iHeartRadio.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Can you tell us what's the name of the four
or five freeway?
Speaker 2 (22:52):
For?
Speaker 3 (22:52):
It depends because you've got the La Portion and the
Ani Well tan An freeways.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
The five, I mean, but like this, like the Glenn
Anderson the.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Right, you know, I think the four H five The
official name is the Homicidal Douche Lord Freeway.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
Okay, I don't know if that's right. No, it sounds right.
You'll have to look that up.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
I guess I could be what is the official name
of the four to five Freeway.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
I'm a side four five freeway. Official name is San
Diego Freeway.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
This was called doesn't have like a fancy that seems
less accurately because it right.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
But you have to think too. Back in the day,
San Diego is a whole different concept. Wait, I'm looking back.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
One free was named the Los Angeles Freeway, and all
these mother fathers run through Los Angeles. So the fourie
fruit was called the San Diego Freeway because it in
short of San Diego.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Correct, It originally took you towards San Diego. That was
the whole point of that, because the foural five comes
up on the Altoro Y where the four and the
five meet meets.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
And you're not near San Diego. No, you're right.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
But this is even the more wild part because I
didn't even realize that we had the Santa Ana Army
Air Base during World War Two, like five freeway right,
correct Santana's the five Freeway. But it's funny because all
of that, like just thinking about how things are and
where they went. So I agree with you, four oh five.
All it doesn't get you the five to go down
to San Diego.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
See, I don't know. This is not like Mark.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
I don't think you're correct, Like I think we need
a focus group or the.
Speaker 6 (24:28):
I don't know the Mark Ridley Thomas Expressway. Something's got
to be some name. The which one for the five?
The San Diego Freeway, that's what they named it. The
San Diego Freeway didn't even touch San Diego though. About
like the whipping around you and cutting you off freeway.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Not on the San Diego four oh five. No one's
whipping around you.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
That's why they call it the parking lot, the unofficial name.
This is quite frustrated wing lot, because you drive. If
you're coming over the hill, coming over to the west
side the four five south on like a Friday, you
could get out and walk faster, no exaggeration, No, it's true.
You can actually get out of your car and walk
up to the next car ahead of you and give
them the finger and then walk back to your own car.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
You know that because you've done it, haven't you. I
fantasized about it.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
That turns you on. I wouldn't exactly say that. No,
I'm not gonna ask anymore.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Kat six forty. We live everybody iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Y live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
And I have told you time and time again that
where I live, which is just outside of Englewood, is
being i'll say invaded by a lot of coyotes. I've
shown the videos to various people in the studio. They
are everywhere in my area. It seems like there's a
den every three or four blocks. And now it's becoming
(26:08):
such an issue that it's getting more and more news coverage.
And yeah, we have fun with it with the issue,
but I've said, eventually someone's child is going to get attacked,
and let me put it this a way, the right child,
not just any child, but the right child.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
And then they will start taking this seriously.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
ABC had a report to think Katla as well, talking
about how residents in Inglewood said that they're fed up
with two things.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
First, they have a feral cat.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Invasion as it's being described, where cats are just multiplying
and they're just running them up in the streets. And
that's also turned into a food source for the coyotes.
So you have these wild cats, you have these wild
coyotes just running around the city creating mayhem, and the
coyotes are not afraid of people at all anymore.
Speaker 6 (27:02):
Last night, leaving here, a smaller coyote ran right by
the door downstairs, and I said, oh, I damn it,
coyote's time is now, and me pull out my pepper
spray walk outside. I see it just kind of trotting
down over towards Morton's. Like I was about to go
get some pickup or something. I'm like, this is what's
happening with this coyote? Is, you know, dining out? I
(27:24):
see it and I said, okay, so it's fine. It's
getting a little further away. It slows down and turns
to look at me, turns around. I'm like, hmm, coyote's
feeling a little testy. Another coyote comes out back up.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (27:40):
I'm thinking to myself, oh snap, do I slowly back
up and try to go back into the door. I said, no, hell,
I gotta get out of here.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
It's late.
Speaker 6 (27:47):
I'm going to try to make a break for the
stairs now. Today I'm ready.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
You're not gonna outrun a coyote.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
I'm not.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
I know, yes, I know, that.
Speaker 6 (27:56):
But you know, I figure, you know, I made loud
stomping sounds as I'm going, and coyote doing all that
kind of stuff. I had a bob plastic bottle which
I'm crunching by of noise, and I'm thinking of myself,
you know, make yourself sound scary. Big monster's coming out.
But tonight I got my bear spray with me. So Derek, Coyote,
I'm going to spray you and then quite possibly smash
(28:18):
you over their head with one of those statues or something. Downstairs,
Coyote is gonna be dead in the court.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
You know they're gonna be waiting on you. They know
where you work, they know what to get off of work.
If they're waiting you for the walk through those doors,
and then you'll be committed to the situation. They know,
they know where the garage is, they know you're walking
to your car. They're gonna come four or five deep.
Speaker 6 (28:40):
And it's not like I can get into the elevator
and it's gonna close fast enough before they can all
jump in and Bobby in the elevator, get me on
the stairs going down. You're right, You're right, And coyotes
are smart and they are vengeful.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
I used to They used to leave chickens in my
yard all the time.
Speaker 6 (28:57):
Again, Look, I remember the last time that we talked
about this is before the Alta Dina burning. Last time
we talked about coyotes on the radio. We were threatening
to do what we planned on doing to a coyote
if it ever ran up on us. Right, come outside
in the morning, and there's dead chicken pieces all in
(29:17):
the yard, not in anyone else's yard, just in mind,
as if it was a warning to me to like
leave coyotes out my mouth.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Oh, if you don't know, when a coyote has killed
an animal, they'll usually eat it right there. When you
come out, you just see like bones and parts just
sitting right there.
Speaker 6 (29:36):
They left enough for me to know that this is
a bird, and they leave it in the same spot.
There's no chickens in my neighbor. There's no neighbor next
door anywhere near me.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
There's got you.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
Where are you getting the chicken and then bringing it
to this yard as a warning what could.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Have been a horsehead in your bed.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
It doesn't sound like you got the message either, Like
they were sizing up the menu last night. Now you
still didn't get them. They coyotes talk, they know who
you are.
Speaker 6 (30:02):
And for one to run by the door, it was
kind of like one of those like here he comes,
here it comes, and it's like it just kind of
just went far enough down where if it wanted to,
we could have turned around. It could have turned around,
and it stood there looking like literally menacing. But it
was small, and I'm like, I'm not worried about you
until the bigger one came out.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
That's that's right, that's right. You think you have an advantage,
and then all of a sudden you know.
Speaker 6 (30:26):
They're howling and that you know that nato to make
when they're being murdered by coyotes.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
I hear it just about every night, and it's horrified.
It's absolutely horrified. They killed a cat, like not too
far from my house last night. It was loud enough
where knew it was within one hundred feet and you
hear them with their friends and family.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yeah, it's it's a horrible, horrible sound, jeez. And it's
going to get worse.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Going back to the story in Inglewood, it's going to
get worse because no one's really taking it seriously and
till someone takes it. Seriously, you're gonna have these coyotes
just running up and down the street. Legally, you can't
do anything to them. Legally, I'm not saying you should
do anything illegal to them, but if you should happen
to accidentally unintentionally run them over with.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Your car, save a v Well.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
Tula just showed all you need is a plastic bottle
to crinkle, because that's known to terrify dangerous wild animals.
Speaker 6 (31:22):
We just recently talked about what to do when we
were approached by wild animal.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
You gotta make yourself bigger and louder and scary. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
I'm not gonna try that with a bear. I'm just
not coyote. I'm gonna fight not with a bear. No,
not at all. It's laid with Mokelly. I'll fight with Mark. No,
you won't, Yes, I will. Don't crinkle a bottle at you,
