Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
six forty.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
KFI AM six forty Bill Handle. Here it is a
Footy Friday, September twelfth. Now I want to point a
couple of things out. Obviously, we've been covering the story
of the murderer of Charlie Kirk, or the alleged murderer.
If I say murder, let him sue me. That's the way.
You have to say alleged until.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
He's why would it be an accident?

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Uh No, but you're right.

Speaker 4 (00:36):
But he still assumed that they're going nuts at MSNBC
that originally claimed that it was one of his followers
that accidentally shot him or something.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
Maybe. So in any case, that is something that probably
is we are not going to talk about. Amy will
interrupt whenever we have any breaking news on this. We've
been covering it all morning long. You'll be hearing it
all day. So let's take a break for a little
while and I have some fun on this rather disturbing

(01:08):
Friday morning. And of course it's Footy Friday with Neil Sevadra.
He's host to the Fork Report, and that's tomorrow two
to five pm, and he is at Fork reporter is
a social addressed all right, Neil aeso. Yes, I love
the I love the way you label these segments because

(01:29):
I get these from Neil and nothing but bunt cake.
I love bunt cakes.

Speaker 5 (01:36):
Nothing bunt cake, that's last cake that is an actual location,
that's an actual place. And I got to tell you
if you haven't tried them yet, holy hell?

Speaker 3 (01:47):
And have you had nothing bunt cakes before? Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:52):
My lord?

Speaker 3 (01:53):
Am I right?

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Yeah? I got that are delicious. Okay, he's a single
bakery that does.

Speaker 5 (01:59):
They have multiple locations, but they are so moist and
so yummy. But as I was putting together Foody Friday,
I had actually finished up and was just about to
send things off to Kno and and and I saw
the story and I'm like, wow, so they've got their

(02:20):
They've got their seasonal stuff coming out. But listen to
these pumpkin spice simple we all get that right in
all their different butt cake sizes, there but caramel, apple cider,
biscof cookie butter. Have you do you know that cookie

(02:43):
butter that it is so absolutely amazed.

Speaker 3 (02:47):
Balls and.

Speaker 5 (02:49):
Right, yeah, that's how I do it. You do you
get a spoonful like peanut butter and you it and
so these uh, these three just caught my attention because
I know that texture. Uh, they're the ratio of icing
to cake and all that. They just have mastered it
at only bunt cake. And if you haven't tried them,

(03:14):
do yourself a favor and get out there. They're not
a sponsor or anything like that. I just really love
their product, and uh, handle, you've got to try it, man.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
I know I will. I mean, I love that. First
of all, I love blunt cake. I love bunt cake.

Speaker 3 (03:26):
I like the way you say it booke wool cake.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
I like boot cake, yes, I do. And starters and
I've never quite understood people dipping in, particularly as ants said,
dipping into peanut butter and eating it out of the jar.
The only thing peanut butter out of the jar is, uh,
it is valuable for is something you want to do
which makes all the sense is you take peanut butter

(03:51):
out of the jar and then you wipe it on
your dog's gums.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
That that is what you use peanut butter for.

Speaker 5 (04:00):
I thought you were going somewhere else. Thank you, lord,
thank you.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
You've got to admit that is usually entertaining when a
dog is trying to deal with peanut butter on.

Speaker 5 (04:09):
The dice at mister ed. How I got mister d
to talk and stuff like that. And the old shows
with like animals, they put peanut butter on them so
that they'd lick it and then they'd add hello.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
It could be yeah, that's how we of course, and
I will endorse.

Speaker 5 (04:29):
But if you have one in your area. The nothing
bunt cake not a horse that talks. I know what, Dale,
I'm gonna run.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
Boy and care where are they? Just you just look
it up. It's nothing bunt cake, right, Yeah, they're all
over the place, all over the place looking And I
just I really enjoy bunt cake.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Oh, I just became your best friend.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
And I love and I love pumpkin spice. I mean
I I do pumpkin spy. I love pumpkin spice on
top of my pumpkin pies.

Speaker 5 (05:02):
On top of your for pumpkins.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
Now garlic back, we go to Neil of course, Foody Friday.
Neil has heard tomorrow two to five pm on The
Fork Report, and uh it's the Fork Report and he's
at the Fork.

Speaker 3 (05:21):
Reporter broadcasting live from the Manhattan Beach. Food and tomorrow.
It's going to be great.

Speaker 5 (05:26):
Yeah, don't have tickets, get tickets at the Manhattan Beach
Food and spelled out wine dot com.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
Okay, And we mentioned in a couple more times for
the end of the show because we've been so busy
with the Charlie Corner story. A lot going on, all, right,
Garlic bread potato chips. At first, when I started eating
these weird potato chips, they were really weird. Today they're
not weird.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
Now all the different flavors.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
Yeah, and now you've got some great flavors, and this
one sounds great. Garlic bread potato chips.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (06:04):
So you know what, this time of the season, not
only do we switch to fall flavors and things like that,
but also with football and like, snacks start coming becoming
center stage, not to mention the holidays. And this is
a snack that I went and then thought about it went, Oh.
The key to this one before we get into it

(06:25):
is keep in mind, you need a hearty potato chip.
Cape cod comes to mind, kettle comes to mind. You
want a very strong potato chip to hold up to this.
That means thick, right, yeah, thick and crispy.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
Yeah. I wouldn't do this with lais.

Speaker 5 (06:42):
If you're gonna do it with you know, like ruffles,
maybe with the ridges you'll get away with it. But
it's basically creating this sauce and some cheese and putting
it on top of the potato chips, almost like nachos.
Almost like nachos, But the butter is really important here.
So the ingredients are, you know, the potato chips, salted butter,

(07:08):
garlic cloves, garlic powder, chopped parsley, fine grated parmesan, cracked
black pepper, and a pinch of flaky salt if the
chips need them. But you're putting, you're melting the butter
in a saucepan over low heat. You're adding the garlic.
You're cooking thirty to sixty seconds. You get it garlic.

(07:28):
You want to smell. You want to smell it that garlic,
eat and then you're done. Don't go past that because
it'll burn. Stir in the removed from the heat, st
and the garlic powder and the black pepper, the herbs,
and then in a couple of batches. You want to
try to do it all times, all at one time.
You drizzle the garlic butter over the chips in a

(07:50):
large bowl. You put on the parmesan, tossing it and
it's gonna clean to all that butter. And you put
on the salt if you need it, and you serve
it immediately, so it's all covered in that garlicky butter
and it's just a thing of magic.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
I made garlic bread last night, interestingly enough, and that's
that's pretty complicated. It was garlic and bread. It's not
that complicated to make.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
Did you just mince the garlic and throw it off?
Just throw on garlic, you know, just take garlic older
nothing you don't know.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
You can crunch it up. It depends on I don't.
I just throw the cloth in there and I go,
this is where you want to bite? And then and
then and then a lot of zelmons.

Speaker 5 (08:40):
I was gonna say it, does Lindsey sit by with
like a pez dispenser filled with the zelmons and just
shoot him into your mouth after you eat. Have you
remember had the garlic bread down the street at uh?

Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yes, cheese garlic bread. That is for those of you
that have never been to the smokehouse. And smoke house
is kind of deep. It's a restaurant where you have
to be a minim it. You have to be a
minimum ninety years old even to walk in the door.
And everybody it's these little old ladies with these little
old men, and you walk in, you go, what the
hell is this about? Everybody's white, but they it's old time. Yeah,

(09:24):
it's an old time restaurant. It does. And it's right
across the street from now the Burbank Studios and all
the stars. You still pardon.

Speaker 3 (09:35):
That's still Warner Brothers.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
Is it Warners or is it the Burbank Studios? I
don't know.

Speaker 3 (09:41):
Burbank Studios is across from us.

Speaker 5 (09:42):
In the studio all right, Warner Brothers is still there
where they shot, so okay.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
So it is Warners. But anyway, all the stars or
Warners would just walk across the street for lunch, and
so everybody who was any kind of a star would eat.
Area's pretty nice.

Speaker 5 (10:01):
Still serve drinks the cocktails a sidecar style, so you
get the cocktail and then you get a little sidecar
in a tiny carafe that sits in ice, so it
feels like you're getting two drinks.

Speaker 3 (10:12):
It's fantastic. I love that place, and.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
The recipes and the food is all old style from
the forties. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (10:24):
Anyways, Yeah, so I know there's gonna be a lot
of snacks coming our way, and so I expect to
hear more.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
And real quickly. Why don't you talk about what's happening
tomorrow at the event that's you you're broadcasting from.

Speaker 5 (10:36):
Sure, it's a massive event. They do a great job.
Manhattan Beach Food and Wine forty six top chefs, Antonia Lafonso.
I adore her and she's a fantastic chef. You've got
to share a yard. You got Neil Frasier forty wines
and spirits out there, great booths. Tickets include all you

(10:57):
can eat and drink. They are going fast if they
have them. You will find him at Manhattan Beach Food
and Wine, all spelled out dot com and I highly
recommend it. It was my favorite event last year. It
was just really well done.

Speaker 2 (11:12):
Okay, we've been covering the story, of course. The story
is not only the assassination of Charlie Kirk, but the
arrest now the suspected killer, Tyler Robinson, and that the
story just came out this morning, by the way, the announcement,
but they'll be throughout the entire day more and more

(11:33):
news is released. But now we've decided let's just it's
heavy duty news. So let's just have some fun and
it's ask handle anything where you record a question, I
answer and hopefully the well hopefully for you. It's humiliating
for me, certainly for Neil, who chooses the question. He

(11:56):
wants maximum humiliation. All right, Starting with that Cono question
number one.

Speaker 6 (12:03):
George, Canoga Park. You know, Bill, I'm always curious. Everybody's
always talking about this affordable housing. Affordable housing. Well, I
don't know, maybe you can enlighten me, but what is
the price. What is a dollar value on what you
would call affordable housing, whether it be a home, whether
it be an apartment, whether it be an adu.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
Oh, that's a good question. I think it depends on
how many people in your family. It depends on where
you want to live. Like Nashville, Tennessee, affordable housing would
be three hundred thousand dollars, three hundred thousand dollars for
a home, three hundred thousand dollars. In southern California, it
gets you an evening at a comedy club. So it

(12:48):
really isn't you know. I Mean, it's a good question,
but you know, it depends on your income, so it's
affordable housing for me. I don't know. I don't know
at least a couple hundred thousand dollars. Okay, moving on,
Hey snowed in San Diego. For those rare occasions when
you actually have to drive to work, do you like

(13:09):
to drive above the speed limit or.

Speaker 3 (13:11):
You do you stick with the speed limit? And also
do you like to participate in roads rage activity?

Speaker 2 (13:19):
I go above the speed limit when I can. What
was the when I the rare times I drive in
and unfortunately I drive in too much because it's an
hour and a half drive for me. What was the
second question that he had down?

Speaker 3 (13:33):
Do you want to put do you ever participate in
road rage activities? Oh?

Speaker 2 (13:39):
No, oh god no, I'm really careful about not doing
that because I assum you damn right. I assume the
guy ahead of me who has cut me off and
I'm flipping the bird at him, has a shotgun right
next to him. So no, someone flips the bird at me,
I wave and smile.

Speaker 5 (13:57):
Hey, you're right, if someone got out of their car,
you'd probably punch yourself in the face to keep them
from doing it.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
That's probably true. I'm a complete wimp when it comes
to that sort of thing, A complete wimp. Yeah, but
on the freeway you sort of have to go seventy
seventy five. If you go sixty five on the freeway,
people are buzzing past you on both sides. And the
ones that are really fun are the ones that are
doing one hundred and ten, one hundred and twenty miles
an hour, and you hope they go into a light

(14:26):
pole of some kind. You go, that'll show you.

Speaker 5 (14:27):
I think the last person you ever really got manly
and stood up to was Jamie White.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
That's a whole story onto itself. But if you want
some fun entertainment, put my name in there were tough?

Speaker 3 (14:41):
Why woman?

Speaker 2 (14:43):
I know, it's just put Bill handle Jamie White. Oh yeah,
and that's fun. Yeah, I told her that is a fun,
fun bit of audio. Okay, next question, Bill, if you
could start a vigilanti organization, what col berets would you wear?

Speaker 5 (15:01):
And you're not allowed to say red? Also, what would
be your guy's cause perhaps removing cocaine from the streets.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
That could be one of the dumbest questions that I've
heard in a very long, very long time.

Speaker 3 (15:16):
Well, answer it what color beret? Bro, I didn't think
about it.

Speaker 2 (15:20):
I was green for money. Does that make sense?

Speaker 3 (15:24):
A yellow for being a wimp?

Speaker 2 (15:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (15:26):
Cause what would.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
What would be my cause? You know, I can't think
of a cause then I would have it today? I just, uh,
you know, there is no cause that I care about.
It's I don't care about anything. So there you go.
You know what I would have just a flesh colored beret,
which means nothing. It would like your head, it would

(15:53):
it would it would match it with hair on it,
a flesh colored beret with a rug on it, and
put it over my head. Yeah, okay, next question, Hey.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
Handle, do you think Vice President Johnson was in on
President Kennedy's assassination at all?

Speaker 3 (16:21):
Thanks?

Speaker 2 (16:22):
Yeah, wow, there's one. Yeah. I'm really a big, a
big conspiracy freak. Uh. Matter of fact, I think it
was Lyndon Johnson somehow was able to get on that
grassy knoll and pull the trigger and then make it
right back to the motorcade. Yeah. Did that sound like

(16:45):
a conspiracy theorist at all?

Speaker 3 (16:48):
What is your belief in the JFK.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
That's a good I think it was Lee Harvey Oswald.
That's it, period and I've looked down a lot of
reading on it. Now, there's some weird things about it.
FK's brain was removed and no one has seen it.
But you know the autopsy, the people that were there,
the photographs, the medical the grassy Knoll where he wasn't
shot from because he was shot from the fourth floor

(17:13):
of the depository, Texas Depository. The school system where Lee
Harvey Oswald they found that little nest, the sniper's nest. Yeah,
I think it's pretty overwhelming, and I think conspiracy theories
come out of the would work across the board. And
you're gonna hear conspiracy theorists coming out of the shooting
of Charlie Kirk, are you. Oh yeah, give it a

(17:36):
couple of days. You know who actually killed him?

Speaker 3 (17:39):
All right?

Speaker 2 (17:40):
Which democrat killed him? Which democrat running for office? Which
democrat in office?

Speaker 5 (17:46):
Kamala Harrising, It was his security guards because they gave
hand signals before.

Speaker 3 (17:51):
Yeah, they touch his hat, touch his ear before the
shots ring.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
Now, so yeah, to me, I'm pretty confident that it
Lee Harvey Oswald with no accomplices.

Speaker 3 (18:02):
In the book suppository, in.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
The book suppository build, yes, exactly, all right.

Speaker 3 (18:08):
From Kentucky.

Speaker 6 (18:09):
Here, I was wondering what the reference to Willie Wolf
is every morning when we do our hellos.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
Thank you. That's a good question, because my middle name
is Wolf. I'm William wolf Handle. My partner and very
dear friend of mine, Savile, calls me Willie Wolf and
he was the only one that ever did until Neil
co opted that. And that's where it comes from. Willie

(18:42):
Wolf comes from my middle name and William, and no
one calls me Willy. I'm not a willy. I'm not
a billy.

Speaker 3 (18:48):
About Willie wolf Esquire.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
Well, sometimes William Handel Esquire or whatever. But that's where
it came from, my middle name being Wolf. Legal name,
by the way, I was born with that name was
wolf Handle until I was naturalized an American citizen. Then
I became William wolf Handle. All right, we have another one.

Speaker 6 (19:06):
Hey, Bill, Hey, Neil, Amy and the rest of the
show Dave from Buonaparte, California.

Speaker 2 (19:14):
Are we sure that Bill is not having a stroke?

Speaker 3 (19:19):
Just sherriff. Thanks you guys. I'm a no, I'm not sure.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
You're not sure?

Speaker 3 (19:26):
Amy, I think you're good to go.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
I could okay, cono.

Speaker 3 (19:31):
My rest of the show was that? Is that who
I am?

Speaker 6 (19:34):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (19:34):
Cono, yes, no stroke?

Speaker 3 (19:36):
Yes? Okay?

Speaker 2 (19:38):
And uh well you were wishing or is it what
we think? No is what actually happens is the termination
will stroke?

Speaker 1 (19:44):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (19:44):
No? Probably not?

Speaker 2 (19:45):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (19:46):
Good?

Speaker 2 (19:47):
Uh yeah.

Speaker 3 (19:48):
Craze your arms up. Your face looks normal, you're smiling.
Do you smell toast?

Speaker 2 (19:56):
I'm dropping. I'm drooping on my right side. Okay? Next
christ Hey Bill, I always hear about you're always traveling.

Speaker 3 (20:04):
Do you ever travel alone?

Speaker 2 (20:07):
No? Actually I don't, and I am. I always do travel.
That's where my disposal income goes. As I've said many times,
I live way under my means. I do my shopping
at costco. I don't do expensive clothes. I don't go
to restaurants expensive restaurants. What I do is use my
disposal income for traveling. And no, I don't travel by myself.

(20:30):
I won't go to the bathroom by myself.

Speaker 5 (20:31):
Frankly, you know what's weird for somebody who doesn't like people?

Speaker 3 (20:35):
You don't like being alone.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
That's true when you think about it. I need I
need someone to hate next to me.

Speaker 3 (20:41):
Yeah, you need someone to say get out of here.
That's correct, get off my lawn.

Speaker 2 (20:45):
That's true. Next question, we'll do one last one.

Speaker 7 (20:49):
Two questions for ask candle anything. One, the fact that
you're an atheist, Bill and you have a good friendship
with Neil, who is a very strong Christian. Does that
ever get in the way of your friendship? Number two,
Since you were born Jewish but are not practicing, did
you intentionally have a Jewish wedding as a joke and

(21:09):
a mockery.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
Oh, that's a good question. She did. And Neil and
I are very close. Neil is married to someone who
is not a believer. Yeah, so that's so that's so.

Speaker 3 (21:23):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (21:23):
No, that doesn't get in the way of our relationship
at all. And the Jewish wedding part, uh That was
Lindsey who forced that I had no intention of having
a Jewish wedding none whatsoever. And she forced the issue.
She said, We're having a Jewish wedding, come hell or
high water. And she even was talking about converting to Judaism.

(21:47):
And I stopped that cold. I said, I've already been
married to a Jew. That's it. We're done once. That's
not going to happen again. So great question, by the way, So, no,
did you wish wedding was not my doing at all. Okay,
that's it. Neil was at my Jewish wedding. He played

(22:08):
the jew because I wasn't.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
As I do in radio.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
That is correct. All right, guys, we are done. A
quick word. Neil is Filly in for me for the
next couple of weeks. I am off on my vacation.
You will still hear tomorrow morning. Handle on the law.
There are fresh questions which I record Tuesdays and Thursday,
so you don't get the same questions. And we're going

(22:34):
to pretend we're trying to convince you that this show
is live. So that's rarely do we succeed. But tomorrow
it'll sound live, and at the same time it's not live,
but you have to think that it's live. Does that work?

Speaker 3 (22:49):
I think you're live now, and I don't know that
that's real.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
That's absolutely true. And so Neil's in for a couple
of weeks. Everybody stays the same. Garri and Shannon up next,
and I will by the way, I have you know,
I've got the Internet with me, and so it'd be
very easy for me to listen to the show, listen
to Neil.

Speaker 3 (23:10):
The whole internet with you.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
Yeah, I am, and I have absolutely no intention of
listening to this show with Neil hosting.

Speaker 3 (23:20):
That's our hope because we just bad mouth you the
whole time.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
That's excellent, all right, guys.

Speaker 3 (23:24):
She's filthy.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
Oh yeah sure, yeah yeah, Amy is like filth. All right,
We're done, guys. That's it. Catch you in a couple
of weeks. Don't forget tomorrow Morning Live, Handle on the
Law and I'm not. I'm gone KF. I am six.
