It's the hair like a cousin, a distant cousin.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
Our hair is the same today, exactly.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
And then, speaking of filling in, it feels like the
weather from Hell, the weather from Satan is filling in
for what we consider to be normal temperatures in the
summer in southern California. But either way, we are all here.

been speaking with him regularly. You've heard him here. Colin

to Instagram, those of you who are social media minded,
and you can go on my Instagram at tiff hobbs

that's at tiff hobbs On here. We have a lot
(02:28):
of show to get to and it feels like very
little time. We have local news, We have some major
updates to some very big stories. We have fun stories,
some interesting stories that I think you'll definitely give your
attention to, including a segment that I'm trying out tonight.
You know how people say food for thought, Well, we're
(02:50):
gonna go thoughts for food.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
You're ordering us food. This is great.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
It's like a regular Friday, kind of like how we
wish there's food on a Friday and how there's not
and we have to wait for someone to order it.
So Mark, since you volunteered and I.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
Heard you do that, I have important news to do.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
I can't be distracted, Robin, Robin, you have to be
Foosh and you have to get Panda Express or something
Poquito Moss.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
You know they don't pay us enough, all right, So.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Okay, down trodden Down Trodden crew will be the Hungry crew.
But we're gonna call this new segment that we're trying
out thoughts for food. And I have some really interesting
food related stories and kind of off the beaten path
stories that I'll share with you. That's at seven point thirty,
including what major fast food franchise is slashing prices effective?
(03:38):
Practically immediately a car crashed into a restaurant while some
influencers were filming a food critique, And did you know.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Your friendships are dying?
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Not because of your personality, No, because being a friend
and having a friendship is just too expensive. And I'll
tell you why and how that relates to food after
seven thirty. At eight o five, we're gonna get into
our deeper dive segment. Parents are apparently too busy to
spend time with their toddlers, their young kids. So here
(04:14):
comes AI, artificial intelligence and toys and the combination of
both is being introduced as a replacement for parental contact.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
That's at eight all five. We'll talk about that.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
At eight thirty five we'll do our scammers Gonna scam segment.
We have two crazy stories there and then in the
last hour again I'll we'll have a really full hour
of interviews.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
We have two separate interviews.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
We're speaking to two officials, two leadership people in leadership
from the Mobile Home Parks and the Palisades, the Tahitian
Terrace and the Palisades Bowl and they're going to come
on and talk to us about legislation they're pushing that
will protect mobile park residents from displacement. It's called Senate
Bill seven forty nine. And Grace kno Wells and John
(05:05):
Brown of the Tahitian Terras and Palisades Bowl, respectively, we'll
be on to talk with us about that. When we
come back, we're going to get into the top stories
that we're watching, and then some updates to really big
local stories. Again, if you want to chat, you can
hit my Instagram at Tiff hobbs on here, send me
(05:27):
a message, let me know you're listening. Tell Mark to
buy food, Tell Robin to buy food, whatever you need
to do. Tell Mark not to make that face. You
can't see it, but he's making a face right now.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
It's on the host to come up with the food
on Fridays. I don't know if Moe told you that.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Wow, look at the time.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
When we come back, we'll continue the conversation.
Speaker 6 (05:45):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on Demand from
KFI AM six forty Tifmy.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Hobbs here filling in for mo Kelly on the lad
with mo Kelly's show, Off air Conversations happening, and if
you're listening last segment, a lot of it was about
who was going to buy pizza. Apparently, whoever fills in
is in the hot seat proverbially and literally when it
comes to paying for food and Mark. What you don't
(06:12):
know is that Robin on the boards. They're filling in
for Fushi and I decided that we would order pizza,
of which I don't want any Wait what what and
neither does Matt.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Well, then I'm confused.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
I'm ordering it for you. I'm a giver. Don't do
it just for me and for Robin. So two of
you because you shamed me into ordering pizza.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
I had no idea the kind of power I've been
wielding around here. This is good. I like this.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
You're underestimating your influence.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Oh yeah, is there something I'm doing with my eyes
or eyebrows or just like the vibe?
Speaker 2 (06:46):
It's just the general smell.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Okay, you know, just the smell is intoxicating, and I
want some pizza to overcompensate for this.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Oh I'm glad I showed up for work today.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Now, so make sure you tell Robin what kind you want,
because she's in charge of the toppings.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I'm not having anything.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Uh the big kind rob.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, he's max it out. She's paying.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
So we're talking about some stories that we're watching. There
are a lot of updates coming out of local stories,
and one of them has to do with the Menindez brothers.
It's the case that seemingly won't fade into oblivion.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
They're back.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Netflix brought them back, put them on a platform, gave
them another lifeline, and they are here, possibly to stay
for the foreseeable future. And what I mean is, the
Menindez brothers are currently up for parole about thirty six
years to the day, almost to the day of the
(07:45):
day that they killed their parents, murdered their parents in
cold blood for whatever their provocation was, it resulted in murder.
And they went in front of the California Parole Board,
the younger brother, Eric yesterday and Lyle sometime today. It
may be happening now actually, but nothing has broken yet
(08:09):
as far as the results of that panel. But yesterday,
younger brother, Eric Menindez was denied parole after a ten
hour hearing where he faced tough questions about his criminal
past and the things that he's done in prison, including
sharing shoes, taking shoes from a female visitor, something he
(08:32):
wasn't supposed to do, and touching female visitors and other
sorts of things that got him in trouble. So all
of that combined resulted in Eric Menindez being denied parole
for at least another three years older brother Lyle. His
hearing is now yesterday. The news broke about Eric in
(08:52):
the evening. I'm expecting the news to break about Lyle
and whether or not he'll be granted parole. Probably not
give and what's happened to Eric probably will break sometime
this evening during the show. But they they're seeing what
this case has and it will go before Governor Gavin
(09:13):
Newsom's desk in a process that can take months. If
younger brother, older brother Lyle is granted parole, If parole
is denied for this second brother here, just like what
happened yesterday with Eric, there are still two paths to freedom.
One path clemency granted by the governor and another path
(09:34):
a court petition that uses new evidence in the case.
But like I said, we'll find out tonight. I'm pretty
sure about Lyle and whether or not he will be
granted parole again. The story that seemingly will not go away.
Another story that we're watching. Former LAFD Christ LAFD chief
(09:55):
Kristin Crowley is out for blood. She is up set
and her targets are the entire city of Los Angeles
and Mayor Bass.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
What's going on well.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Former LAFD chief Kristin Crowley on Wednesday filed a claim
against the city and Mayor Bass for defamation, retaliation, and negligence,
alleging that she herself was the victim of a pattern
of quote, dishonesty, scapegoating, and unlawful retaliation, all of which
(10:31):
resulted in her firing after the fires in January. The
claim goes on to say that Kristin Crowley's twenty five
year career as a public servant was destroyed not because
of her duties or any derelict to her duties, but
because she told the truth. And this claim is a
(10:52):
possible four runner to a lawsuit, which means that looking
at lawsuits his store and what's waged against the city
or these municipalities, settlements often occur, and what likely will
happen is a settlement between Kristin Crowley and the Los
(11:14):
Angeles city leadership, including Mayor Karen Bass. Finally, Alligator Alcatraz
out there in Florida, that detention center can no longer
make new reservations. They can't take new inmates because a
federal judge has shut that down. US District Judge Kathleen
Williams issued a lawsuit that was prompted by environmental groups
(11:39):
who say that the Alligator Alcatraz area this detention center
impacts wildlife and natural resources. It disrupts an environmentally sensitive area,
and the order mandates that no detainees beyond those currently
housed at the facility.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
Can be moved there.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
Of course, of course you have lots of leadership within
the Trump administration fighting against this mandate, against.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
What this federal judge has ruled.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
But as of now, Alligator Alcatraz can take no new detainees.
Those who are there can remain, but no new detainees
can be taken in. When we come back, guess what's
back the plague. I'll tell you where, what to look for,
(12:36):
why it's back, and why we are all royally screwed
because it's not going anywhere.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
On the other side of the break.
Speaker 6 (12:44):
You're listening to later with Moe Kelly on Demand from
kfi am six forty.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Okay, let me do something nice. Shamey for not.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Doing it that I do it.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
It's not shave, it's like mild tough love.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Well, the pizza is coming, Okay, no one else is coming,
or it's already.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Hear the plague. Don't make that face mark.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
The plague is here, and the plague has been here,
never really left, but it's back in a way that
is a lot more upsetting because it's much closer to home.
There's a California resident, and when they say California resident
in these stories, you immediately want them to lead with
(13:25):
the where it's like, just tell me, don't put in
the headline a California resident, tell me an La resident
or a you know, an Orange County resident. Well, in
this case, this resident is from South Lake Tahoe, just
far enough to give us a little bit of ease,
but just close enough and especially where people love to vacation,
to make us all a bit paranoid for what's to come.
(13:48):
And in this residen's case, they've tested positive for the
plague because apparently it's seventeen hundred to you know, eighteen
hundred whatever. The plague was right few details have been
made about this resident. Of course, hippa laws prevent that,
but the El Dorado County Environmental Management Division and Public
(14:12):
Health Division, they definitely could have come up with a
shorter name for that said that the patient is currently
under the care of a doctor while recovering at home.
So the patient has survived, is surviving and is under
medical care. Now here are some details about this case.
(14:34):
It's believed that the person became ill after being bitten.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
By a flea. And when were they bitten.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
They were bitten while they were camping in the South Lake,
Taho area. Now what I hear flees, I immediately think
o s because I have pets, I have dogs. I
walk my dogs in the community, and especially when it's
(15:04):
hot like it is now, fleas seem to be a
lot more plentiful. And you have your precautionary measures you
can take, you have your topical this, you have your
internal things, and there's a lot of conversation and disagreement
about what's best. But there are ways to prevent and
treat fleas. But oftentimes fleas are unavoidable. If you have dogs, cats,
(15:28):
other sorts of animals with fur, and if you walk
your animals or take them out into the community into nature,
if you're a person who likes to hike with your dog,
or you like to go camping with your dog, both
things that I really enjoy doing. Now they're saying that
we are all putting ourselves at a very high risk
(15:50):
for contracting the plague, or at least for our pets
to contract the plague. The plague is caused by a
certain bacteria, and that bacteria is mostly transmitted by the
bites of fleas that have bacteria. From infected squirrels, chipmunks, mice,
other wild rodents, and dogs and cats may also bring
(16:15):
plague infected fleas into the home. I know where I
work there's some not here at the studio, although this
may be the case, I don't know, can't say yes
or no. But at my other job, my day job,
there is a basement area and there's been a lot
of renovation going on on the site, and the renovators,
(16:37):
these construction workers unfortunately unearthed when they were pulling up
carpet and doing all this stuff. A flea infestation. Yes,
a flea infestation.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
That's how the story always starts, isn't it. It's a
flea infestation. It's one of the doorways to hell. Something
something always happens in that situation.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
You don't like the dark in the bottom of the
crevices of what you think is of normally functioning environment. Yes,
we will possibly become patient zero one, two, three, four
ten in Los Angeles.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Hopefully not.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
But now that we know that the plague is transmitted
by fleas, or we're reminded of that, and that this
is becoming a closer to home story than we would
like to believe, we're a lot more paranoid about flea infestations.
They're already bad if you have them, you know how
that is. A flea bite is no fun, and then
a bunch of them is even less fun. But knowing
(17:34):
now that some of these fleas may be carrying the plague,
of all things, is very upsetting.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
Now.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
You can prevent getting the plague by avoiding contact with
wild rodents and by keeping pets away.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
From rodent burrows. Good luck with that.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
If you are hiking and you have a dog who
likes to explore, symptoms of the plague will usually show
up up within two weeks of exposure to an infected
animal or flea, and those Symptoms can include things that
look like a normal really bad code a fever, a nausea, weakness,
swollen lymph nodes. You can treat the plague effectively with
(18:16):
antibiotics if you catch these symptoms early. Now there are
different degrees of the plague. The lower degree very easily
treat it with over the antibiotics I imagine, not just
over the countermeds. But it can increase in severity. You
can get septissmic plague, you can get mneumonic plague, and
with those increases come even greater risk. The type of
(18:39):
plague that the patient had is unknown at this time,
but officials, doctors, medical professionals say, regardless of the type
of plague you get, about ninety you get.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
I just said it like in the affirmative, the.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
Kind that you get, Yeah for you, ninety percent of
those infected will survive with quick treatment operative phrase there
quick treatment.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Untreated, the plague.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
Is nearly always fatal, and that comes from the Cleveland Clinic.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Again. To avoid the plague, they say, this is what
really hurt.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Don't feed squirrels, chipmunks or other wild rodents. I literally
keep little things on me so I can throw them too, squirrels, chipmunks,
other wild rodents. They say, should you find a sick, injured,
or dead rodents, stay away from it, don't touch it,
don't let your pets play with it, you sick people.
And then also if you're camping, when you enjoy those
(19:38):
camping trips, avoid sleeping or resting near animal burrows or
where dead rodents have been spotted.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
I would hope that you do that.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
Anyway, you also want to wear deep bug spray and
spray it around your lower extremities, being careful of course,
to make sure that you ward off flee exposure, and
if you have to bring your pet into that area,
youth flea control products.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
But the plague is beck yay for us.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
What a wonderful It'd be nice to not live in
unprecedented times. Some precedented times would surely be great.
Speaker 4 (20:15):
I'm going to head home and read some CAMU tonight.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Just seriously.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
On the other side of the break, we're going to
shift gears and talk about a really sad update that
has a lot of implications and presumptions that are horrific.
And I'm talking about the story of the missing baby,
the missing infant Emmanuel Harrow, whose parents as of today,
were arrested on suspicion of murder charges. I'll give you
(20:45):
details in this update and more on the other side
of the break.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
You're listening to later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
Tiffany Hobbs sitting in for Moe Kelly tonight until ten.
We have Mark Ronner here. We have Robin in for
the Foosh, who's doing great. We have Maddie in for Tawala.
It's a fun crew. We're having a good night. We're
rolling along. Some news we've been watching. As you just heard.
There updates about the Menindez brothers, with Eric already being
(21:18):
denied yesterday being denied Parole Lyle having his hearing likely
right now because yesterday Eric's denial came in the evening
and came late into the evening, which was strange, but
given that, that seems like a formula for what could
potentially happen for Lyle, whose hearing is today as well.
(21:39):
Former LAFD chief Kristin Crowley is waging war against the
City of la and Mayor Bass and many would say
rightfully so.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
She says she was wrongfully.
Speaker 3 (21:50):
Terminated and that anything else is practically slander and libel
as well. Alligator Alcatraz can take any new detainees. A
federal judge has shut that down, likely temporarily, as President
Trump's administration continues to fight against that ruling. A big
(22:13):
story here in the Southland, a really shocking story, a
sad story, and in my opinion, another story indicative of
a lot of just just negligence on the behalf of
Children and Family Services. And I do mean that as
(22:35):
an indictment because we've heard too many of these stories
in recent years about how families have been deemed unfit,
parents have been deemed unfit, and yet the children in
their care remain in their care. And it is when
we find out that something atrocious, something horrendous, has happened
to those children, that we then see just how negligent
(23:01):
the system is. And in this case, we're talking about
missing toddler, missing infant, excuse me, Emmanuel Horror seven months
owed and his parents who all this week were claiming
that their son was kidnapped and the mom was knocked
(23:22):
unconscious and the baby was taken and U kaipa, and
you know they're on this mission to find their child
and reunite with your child and not too tearful.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Please for that.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
But all of this happened and they were arrested today,
both parents, Jake and Rebecca harrow On suspicion of murder.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
And we have some audio for that.
Speaker 7 (23:47):
Seven month old Emmanuel Horrow now presumed dead. The boy's parents,
Jake and Rebecca Harrold, now under arrest, accused of murder.
Sheriff's deputy's sealing off the entire property as investigators search
for clues as to.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
What really happened to the baby.
Speaker 7 (24:04):
It's all starting when the boy's parents reporting him kidnapped
at a Big five parking lot more than a week
ago in Ukaipa. The day after their report, the mother
making this tearful plea for her boy to be returned.
Just give them back to me.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Please, don't harm my son.
Speaker 4 (24:22):
Please, I'm making you please.
Speaker 7 (24:24):
Cost please. But within a day of their interview with
eyewitness News, the San Bernadino County Sheriff's apartment saying the
parents had stopped cooperating with their investigation. Then came news
of the father's criminal history. Convicted of willful cruelty to
a child two years ago. Today, members of the community
coming to the scene this morning, still in shock about
(24:46):
everything that's happened, heart wrenching for everybody.
Speaker 5 (24:49):
I'm a mother and a grandmother, so it's been emotional.
I've been following it since it started, and it's taken
a toll on me. I've been having a hard time
since sleeping at night and just trying to keep up
with the updates.
Speaker 7 (25:03):
And then when you found out this morning that they
were arrested.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
I was shaking. I was shaking, goosebumps. We were all
up and down, my arms, my leg's goosebumps because I
had a feeling.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
The story stinks.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
Mark when you, and I'm sure because you are in
the news business, you saw the visual representation of these parents.
Speaker 8 (25:26):
You saw the mom, you saw the dad. What did
you think. I haven't seen the video, but it's generally
not a good sign. When they stopped talking to investigators,
I mean they ghosted them apparently frozen out.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Completely frozen out.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
And people were saying too that there were so many
inconsistencies in the stories from the mom who was at
the forefront, she was in front of the media until
she decided to stop talking along with the dad, ghosted
and pushed him out, and those inconsistencies also played out
with the feeling I just I don't know, but I
(26:02):
really feel strongly that if your child is missing, I
feel like it would.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Be hard to talk.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
One hard to speak, and two if you were able
to speak, if you were compelled to give interviews, that
you would be needing to be held up by multiple people.
And these parents, for all of what they claimed to
be going through, the distress, the distraught, they seemed pretty
together and people were saying, where are the pictures? There's
(26:35):
one picture floating around and this picture isn't enough. We
need to see more to be able to locate this child,
and the parents refuse to put up more pictures. Just
a heartbreaking update, and law enforcement officials are implying in
in direct terms, direct terms that Emmanuel Harrow, this seven
(27:02):
month old baby, is probably deceased.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
At this point, you don't need to be Colombo to
understand what kind of behavior constitutes a major red flag.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
Oh yeah, it's And there were so many from the beginning,
and people fancy themselves as amateur sleuths, and to be honest.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Many people are really good at it.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
We have a lot of source material to be able
to factually make conclusions, and people were on it from
day one saying there's something off here.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
And it took over a week, but there is something off.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
And now these two parents are under arrest for the
suspicion of murdering their seven month old baby.
Speaker 4 (27:45):
Well, I can tell you as a former Copspeed reporter,
it's usually not nearly as complicated with any twists and
turns like you might see on television. Real police work
is about as far away from TV and movie police
work as you can imagine.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
Tell me that I think thought it was real, and it's.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
Usually Okham's razor. The simplest explanation is the best, and
there are cues in basic human behavior, which you alluded
to just a moment ago. Losing your child is about
the most traumatic thing a human being can experience, and
it's one of the most taboo subjects in our culture,
and if people are acting off, that's a red flag.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Enough said, when we come back, we're going to get
into our deeper Dives segment. We're going to talk about
how some parents are using AI toys, robotic toys, artificial
intelligence toys to take their place when it comes to
parenting and just general interaction with their children, with their babies,
