Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to k p I AM six forty the
Bill Handle Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
A robot having birth? How do you do that? I'm
about an.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Elevator door who opens up and out comes the baby,
and how does it get it's nutrients.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
A hose and now handle on the news, Ladies and gentlemen,
here's Bill Handle.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
And good morning, Oh boy, it is now a home
day Wednesday. As the year is flying, actually it's fair
to say the year is flying, doesn't seem like it
just started January first.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
And as it has certainly flown by.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
And I have a theory.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
I actually it's a theory that makes a lot of
sense when I heard it, and that is, think of
it when you're in school, when you're in grade school
or even in junior high school. I remember June twenty
one for some reason. I remember that date one year
when school was out, we had three months of vacation.
It seemed forever, and now three months zip spy.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
And it's a question of being just relative.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
You when you're six years old, three months is a
far bigger percentage of your lifespan that you've experienced that
when you're seventy, So I guess that works.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Do you hear the clock ticking in your head?
Speaker 1 (01:34):
I hear the clock ticking in my head, my stomach.
I'm watching the clock ticking right here in front of me.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
You made me laugh so hard yesterday when you said
you're having a party this Saturday.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
It starts at six, and.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
You're all, it should be over by eight, and I'm like,
you married a forty year old.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
It is not ending at eight PPP.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
I did not marry a forty year oldp it.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I married a twenty six year old. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
So, so I laughed about it is not going to
be over at eight.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Well, for me, it's gonna be over at eight, and
then I'm gonna say.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
Good night, okay, pop pop, I'm done.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Yeah no.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
I remember the first time I had I had guests
over with my ex and it was nine o'clock and
there was it was our first dinner party, and there
I was. It was nine and I just stood up
and said, okay, I'm bored, everybody, I'm going to bed,
good night. And I just walked out and went to bed,
and everybody went, uh uh, maybe it's time to go.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
What do you think? Okay? Whatever, you want.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
Now, it would be who was that? No one's gonna
know the difference.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Yeah, she's got all the young friends coming to party
and and Amy are gonna be tripping the life, and.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
She doesn't have I have to tell you. She is
actually older than I am. She's a very old soul.
She is, so she knows. She knows our music, my music.
She knows that because her Are you ready for this?
Her parents, her dad is six months older than I am.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
How's that? Remember the first time we met, she introduced
me to her dad, Louis.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
She said, Bill, this is Louie, Louie Bill, And I
look at him and go, so do I call you dad?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
And he said, no, you can call me Louie. That works.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Her parents are charming as hell.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Oh yeah, they're great people. They are great, lovely, great, great, great,
great people. Okay, what else we can talk about? Well
we got and of course we have all kinds of
news as we normally do. But first to quick Hello, Will,
good morning, good morning Bill? Okay, hey, happy Camper or
Neil we always talked, so it doesn't I don't even
(03:54):
say good morning. Neil is not going to be your
Friday because he's filling in for Conway?
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Right?
Speaker 2 (04:00):
And who's filling for mo Is? Did you say Tiffany
is filling okay?
Speaker 4 (04:09):
And so it was lovely and smart as hell.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
It's yeah, yeah, And we used to have a real bench.
I think is she the only weekend talk show host
that does fill in? Uh?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
During the week we.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Used to have.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
You have Chris Merrill and Mark, But Chris is not
a regular. Wait a second, Chris is not regular?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Is Ian? Mark is not a regular? I'm talking about
regular weekend talk show hosts. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
I've got a whole theory.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Maybe it's because I when I was weekends, I filled
in for everybody overnight.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
It was it was very different back then. Yes, we
had a bench, and it was different.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Very much, so very much.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
For we had seven to nine o'clock slot, and it
was known as the death slot here at KFI, and
and they would go through hosts basically as often as
I changed my underwear about once a week.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
There, Wayne Resnick, you had Stephanie Miller, You had so
many people.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
And so I was now starring on Broadway or off
Broadway in a play?
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Is he?
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:19):
I love Phil? Phil is brilliant and he has a podcast.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
He's doing very very well with I mean, there's a
whole world to Phil Henry just one of the most talented,
unique characters out there in the world of radio.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
All Right is a doubt, yep.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
And there's Amy.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Good morning, Hi Bill, Hi Kno and and Okay, guys,
we have lots to talk about.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Did we go off on a few tangents this morning?
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Yes, we did, just a few, all of us.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yes, this is gonna be the Tangent Show, is what
we're gonna call it from now on. Okay, handle on
the news with Amy, Neil and me lead story. But
the redistricting hearing is going to happen. First of all,
Texas is going to vote on redistricting new congressional districts,
(06:11):
which will create five more Republican districts because you can
redistrict Jerrymander and that's what's going on. California is doing
the same thing and retaliation to bring in five more
Democratic seats.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
And I'm going to talk more about that at seven o'clock.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
And there are so many people against it, including Democrats,
which I don't understand. For some reason, they're okay with
the Republicans doing it to create more Republican seats. But
we shouldn't do it here in California, Oh, because it's illegal. Well, okay,
we're passing laws where it is legal.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
All right.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
You put something on the ballot, you change the rules.
That's what happens all the time. And so we're going
to talk more about that. A lot of this makes
no sense to me at all, and that conversation will happen.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
Moving on scrutinizing the Smithsonian, the Trump administration says that
it will review Smithsonian museums. They've been hinting at it
for a while now, but now it's official. Calling the
museum's portrayal of US history too negative, Trump wrote on
Truth Social the Smithsonian is out of control. Where everything
(07:21):
discussed is how horrible our country is, how bad slavery was,
and how unaccomplished the downtrodden have been. There's nothing about success,
nothing about brightness, nothing about the future.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Now why the BBC did a story on this?
Speaker 4 (07:36):
Wait, there's nothing about the future in a museum.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
No, andc.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
The BBC did a story and what they were filming
at the time was a replica of Neil Armstrong going
down the Lunar Lander and what he said his last step,
you know, as said, there's nothing about how.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Great America is.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Trump says, And there it was, and the quote that's
one small step for white men and one giant step
for mankind. It was right there, and I went, yes,
that makes sense. Anyway, it's gonna tear tearry it all apart.
Slavery is you know, it's not all bad. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
The Holocaust Museum too, is gonna you know, talk about
some of the designing and how stripes were slimming. It's
asinine to think that you could put any spin on slavery. Now,
I I will tell you that most Americans don't understand
much about slavery. About how many would would you think
(08:42):
that Brazil had more slaves than the United States?
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (08:46):
I did? Yeah, I in terms of the share numbers,
I don't know that.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Million slaves came in and under eighty eight thousand came
to the US.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Where's million?
Speaker 2 (09:00):
When sold on a minute? Hold on me, how much
at our peak they had?
Speaker 4 (09:07):
At our peak we had just under four million?
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Okay, let me, I don't know if that's three.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Hundred thousand came over and then the rest of it,
the rest of them were born here.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Yes, well no, and then they and then they pro
created up to almost four million.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Actually even more than that. They were actually bred to
create more slaves.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
No spin, but most people would assume that the United
States had more of that twelve million original that came
to the Americas, and it's not the case. Those things
are important, but you can't spin. You can't spin slavery
into something good. And you can't say, oh, you know,
(09:55):
people are always talking about the bad part of slavery.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Well, I don't know, and this is and I don't understand.
I certainly can see the argument that we should spend
more time and it's no argument. I don't know if
it's true or not, more time talking about our freedoms
and the future, and really concentrate on the.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
Great part of America.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I don't have a problem with that.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
But then, but down playing slavery is and other parts
of it by the way civil rights that it's not
that big a deal, and downplaying the negative parts of America.
We have tons of negative I mean tons, as every
country does.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
And our greatness should come from admitting those things and
not reliving them, by owning up to them and saying
this will never happen again.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Hey, sirih how many slaves were there in the South
during the Civil War?
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Okay, Georgia four hundred and sixty two, Junia four hundred
and ninety thousand, Mississippi four hundred and thirty six. So
we're talking just in those states, we're talking five six million.
So I mean there were a ton, obviously massive amounts. Okay,
at the peak it.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Was under four million. We got three hundred and eighty
eight thousand in the first twelve million.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
I came to the mayor.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
I'm not doubting that. Okay, I understand you're looking at
the figures.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
I'm not I get it. Actually he's not looking at
the figures.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
I'm not looking at your figure.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Oh, thank you so much. All right, enough of that.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
So the Palisades Fire.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Still a lot of questions this far out from January,
and one of them comes by. Some of them are
supposed to be answered by way of a report detailing
the handling of the Palisades fire. However, the mayor cannot
release these or we can't see any of this at
this point because there is a federal investigation as well
(11:58):
going on about the blaze. So the mayor came out
yesterday said that she can't release this information or they
don't want to interfere with the federal investigation.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
As to cause question, this is a local fire.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
I don't quite know where the FEDS are involved, other
than you have a utility that is connected to the
grid that therefore goes across state lines.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
I would think it'd be the other way around.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Local fire, local authorities, local investigations, and if the FED
wants to get involved in the investigation, okay, go right ahead.
But saying oh no, we're not going to release our
local report until at the request of the Feds.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Well, you are echoing some of the frustration that's coming
out from those who want the information.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
There is.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Sharon de Luca. I guess who serves on the city's
fire commission. It's a citizen panel, but she serves on
that as over sees the Los Angeles Fire Department is
looking into this thing. We want that information because we're
in fire season. We want to know what we did
wrong so we don't do it again.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
Tracking ice, Anaheim has unveiled a new website and along
with local residents, they are providing real time updates to
ice raids in the City. The website is called contigo,
which means standing with you in Spanish. The Anaheim spokesperson,
(13:31):
Mike Leister says, we're tracking reports and actual incidents throughout
the city in the region and doing it in real time.
So there was a raid at the home depot over
the weekend and it was up on the website within
about five minutes. Another raid was reported at the Euclid
car wash on Saturday, and also that was up within
about five minutes of when it started.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Yeah, this takes the concept of sanctuary city to another level.
It's not just the city won't cooperate with the Feds
or Ice. Now, it's the city will tell everybody where
Ice is. Uh, it's moving towards that home deep over there,
watch out, or it's going to in this case, that
(14:10):
particular car wash. Letting people know where the raids are.
Very interesting stuff.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
Yeah, tell you Amy lives. She and I lived near
each other. Amy.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Have you noticed that, like on Ring or any of
those neighborhood apps, that it went from package thieves and
you know, homeless people. Now all it is is where
Ice is and that there's coyote packs right the streets.
Speaker 5 (14:34):
Coyotes and icy and still some porch pirates, but mainly Ice.
And then and they use the little ice imog.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
You don't write ice out. They just put the little
Ice icon and it's everywhere, you know. They that's all
you see these you render.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
You wonder what you wonder why l A and other
municipalities here inside of California are at odds with the Feds,
you know, big surprise.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
Huh oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
And meanwhile we've got our governor going full board against Trump,
which is hilarious. All right, uh so all you kids,
don't worry about it. Your president, Your president's on fleek yo.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
The White House has joined TikTok. They now have at
White House for you to enjoy. They did their first
initial video showing foot footage of Trump as he declared
I am your voice so and then typed in America,
we are back.
Speaker 4 (15:34):
What's up TikTok?
Speaker 3 (15:36):
Yo?
Speaker 4 (15:36):
Yowres he Trump pres t in the his house.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
He was against TikTok until he realized that TikTok had
a lot to do with his win, bringing young people
to the Trump side, and which credits to his boy
right yeah, actually, Baron, yeah, absolutely, because you remember he
was or the sale of Bite Me, the company that
(16:02):
owns TikTok Bye Bite Dance. Yeah, I was close one
or the other. Bite Me Bye Dance. You know it's
all the same, and now he loves all of it.
Speaker 5 (16:12):
Moving on, RFK is not AOK with this one. The
American Academy of Pediatrics has come out recommending COVID nineteen
vaccines for kids between six and twenty three months old.
Kennedy says that that goes in direct contrast to the
(16:35):
CDC dropping its recommendation that young children get the COVID
nineteen mRNA vaccine. And Kennedy also said that the drugmaker
aspisor in Moderna had donated made contributions to the American
Academy of Pediatrics, and that constitutes a conflict of interest.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
You know, at some point you would think the American
Academy of Pediatrics is more interested in the health of children,
just to guess now, than it is because it's not
a lobbying group for big pharma. But we know that
Robert Kennedy Junior is beyond a vaccine skeptic. I mean,
he's straight out against vaccines. You wait until COVID explodes,
(17:25):
and I'm guessing now all right, but calendar this when
COVID explodes, like measles has exploded relative to the other years,
and those people who those kids that have measles were
not vaccinated. Why I vaccinate anybody against diseases.
Speaker 6 (17:42):
Yeah, but it's a different kind of vaccine.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
It is a different kind of vaccine. There's no quese.
But it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
It's still a vaccine, and it's still proving to be
very reliable, and it doesn't cause autism, and it's new technology,
and that is good news. I just hate getting in
the way of science move being ahead, I really do,
especially when it is this obvious and not that RFK
is against the RMNA vaccine. He says healthy kids should
(18:09):
not get it, and the American Pediatric America Academy Pediatric
said everybody should get it, all the kids.
Speaker 5 (18:16):
I'm curious as to why they're recommending And again, I
don't know why they're recommending it for such young kids
when like ninety percent of the people who got really
sick and died from COVID when it was as lethal
as it was were older people and people with pre
and existing conditions.
Speaker 6 (18:33):
It wasn't kids getting sick.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
It wasn't kids were far far they had a lot
more tolerance. That's true.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
But what they're saying, you know, there's no polio out
there yet kids still get polio vaccine at six months,
the MMR, the MBR a Q elemento.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Yeah, I will say to get when you're a kid.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Vaccines are the closest we have to actual cures, because
everything else is the old saying they have a pill
for everything and a cure for nothing. Vaccines are the
closest we have to actually curing things. And the fact
that we're fighting against them is scary.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
All right, Trump.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
Administration, no security clearance for you. You've got federal government
intelligence community people being targeted and having their security clearance
is revoked thirty seven. As a matter of fact, folks,
current and former national security officials are being pulled from
(19:38):
this roster and being told that they have engaged in
the political politicizization.
Speaker 6 (19:46):
Political that's one of the hardest words to say.
Speaker 3 (19:48):
It is it is sization or weaponization.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
What's fascinting about this is the argument they're doing this
because they have been attacked politically. I'm talking about the administration.
So they are going after people who somehow attacked them.
But they're not using politics to attack those people. It's
a straight out retribution. There is no it's.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Exactly it's complaining about. Yeah, it's that the memo that
went out did not offer any evidence, of course, of
the accusation, which is I do one more and then
we'll take a break.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
This is so wrong on so many fronts. There's a
new development in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas. It's about
an hour away from the closest city, and there's a
group of homesteaders building an exclusive community. Applicants are screened
with an in person interview, a criminal background check, a
questionnaire about ancestral heritage, and sometimes even pictures because the
(20:50):
communities to architects say they must personally confirm that applicants
are white before they can be welcomed in, and.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
They give an IQ.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
They give an IQ test to make sure known over
the has an IQ of more than eighty is going
to be allowed in.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Well, Amy, tell us about those architects of this of
this policy. Yeah, okay, so wonderful they are.
Speaker 5 (21:11):
One is it classically trained French horn player who has
live streamed his own sex videos, and the other is
a former jazz pianist arrested but not charged for attempted
murder in Ecuador.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
A french horn. I'm trying to visualize the sex with
a french horn.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Well, now we all are thank you, Okay, everybody's going
to get investigated, even the police.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
So you have DC officials.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
Saying that the police stats that we've talked about here
on the program about violent crimes dropping in Washington, d C. Well,
they're getting some pushback, and of course Trump says that
you need the federal takeover that he has been pushing. Well,
the Justice Department is now investigating whether Washington d C.
(22:02):
Police manipulated the data to make crime rates appear lower.
So it's unclear what crimes the Justice Department could accuse
DC police officials. I guess manipulating federal data, that type
of thing, fraud ish, something like that. But they're being investigated.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Yeah, I'd like to know where the police do get
their figures, as they keep track of these figures now,
whether they exaggerate or not. However, the Feds, the President
has said crime is out of control in Washington.
Speaker 4 (22:36):
D C.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Now, Pam Bondi pointed out to the fact that there
were x number of arrests, arrests and X number of
guns taken off the street by that felons were caring.
I have yet to see compare this to last week,
or compare this to last month when there wasn't a
federal intervention. I don't know those numbers, but we're not
(23:00):
getting those numbers. We're not getting a comparison.
Speaker 5 (23:04):
I don't know those numbers specifically, but I was watching
a show lest night, and again I don't have them
sitting in front of me, so I don't know where
they came from. But they were saying that both carjackings
and armed robberies were down, like by fifty sixty seventy
over week.
Speaker 6 (23:21):
Okay, when you have that much of a.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Police right and by the way, that backs up Trump's
assertion that if you have if you federalize police forces
in every city in the country, you are going to
see crime go down. We do know that the more
cops on the street, the fewer the less crime is
there that we know. Now it's a question of statistics
(23:44):
and how many federalized police will be there, how many
guardsmen will be there, we don't know.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
At this point.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
I doubt that crime is out of control and I
have no doubts that the police is questionable as to
the reporting there too, So you question both.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
I have no idea who's telling the truth.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
FBI has one numbers, a police have another number, The
state has another number.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
AI is it just culls the numbers that are given
to them by local jurisdictions. They're not making They're not
going out and doing their own numbers. But the balance
here is not you could stop crime easily. You put
curfews on people so they can't leave their home. You
have a police state. The whole balance is about us
being able to enjoy our freedoms and have the lowest
(24:37):
crime possible.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
Okay, Amy, if it's glowing, don't eat it.
Speaker 6 (24:45):
I know that I'm making a joke about it. It's
actually pretty serious. The FDA is.
Speaker 5 (24:49):
Warning people to not eat raw frozen shrimps sold at
Walmart's because of possible contamination by caesium one P seven,
which is a radioactive isotope.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Know how it got there?
Speaker 5 (25:03):
I know it was found in a shipment of imported
frozen shrip from an Indonesian company that uses the business
name b MS Foods. Again, it's being sold in Walmart
and officials have detected the radioactive isotape isotope at four
ports across the country, including the Port of Los Angeles.
Speaker 4 (25:22):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Also, the other brand name is blue Glowing Scrots.
Speaker 6 (25:27):
And you have to oh, it's under great value at
Walmart stores.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Yeah, great blue growing glowing scrots. Yeah, so you don't
need nyghlice at the house.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
On the other side, every rave across southern California, people
have these shrimp around their neck.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
All right.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Italy one of their biggest.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
Glaciers is melting so much so they can't even measure
the way they have for a thirty years.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
They have to do it remotely.
Speaker 3 (26:02):
Now hot summer geologists discovered it that the simple steaks
used to benchmark, you know, they measure by putting stakes
in certain areas and seeing how they retract each year.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
All of those things.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
It's been buried under rock, slides, all kinds of debris,
and it's just too unsteady there the terrain for in
person visits, so it's already lost about a mile in
length since first measuring. The benchmarks were positioned at the
front of the glacier in eighteen ninety five.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Go to the Mendenhall glacier up in Alaska. Where it
used you'd walk two blocks and you'd be on it.
Now it's three miles down the road, or as has
retreated that long, it's or that far back.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
It's really depressing.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
It's gotten to the point where we have more ice
in LA than they do in Alaska. Good night, everybody.
Yeah the waitress, Okay, we're done.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Guys.
Speaker 2 (27:02):

You're listening to k p I AM six forty the
Bill Handle Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
A robot having birth? How do you do that? I'm
about an.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Elevator door who opens up and out comes the baby,
and how does it get it's nutrients.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
A hose and now handle on the news, Ladies and gentlemen,
here's Bill Handle.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
And good morning, Oh boy, it is now a home
day Wednesday. As the year is flying, actually it's fair
to say the year is flying, doesn't seem like it
just started January first.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
And as it has certainly flown by.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
And I have a theory.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
I actually it's a theory that makes a lot of
sense when I heard it, and that is, think of
it when you're in school, when you're in grade school
or even in junior high school. I remember June twenty
one for some reason. I remember that date one year
when school was out, we had three months of vacation.
It seemed forever, and now three months zip spy.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
And it's a question of being just relative.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
You when you're six years old, three months is a
far bigger percentage of your lifespan that you've experienced that
when you're seventy, So I guess that works.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Do you hear the clock ticking in your head?
Speaker 1 (01:34):
I hear the clock ticking in my head, my stomach.
I'm watching the clock ticking right here in front of me.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
You made me laugh so hard yesterday when you said
you're having a party this Saturday.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
It starts at six, and.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
You're all, it should be over by eight, and I'm like,
you married a forty year old.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
It is not ending at eight PPP.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
I did not marry a forty year oldp it.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I married a twenty six year old. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
So, so I laughed about it is not going to
be over at eight.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Well, for me, it's gonna be over at eight, and
then I'm gonna say.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
Good night, okay, pop pop, I'm done.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Yeah no.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
I remember the first time I had I had guests
over with my ex and it was nine o'clock and
there was it was our first dinner party, and there
I was. It was nine and I just stood up
and said, okay, I'm bored, everybody, I'm going to bed,
good night. And I just walked out and went to bed,
and everybody went, uh uh, maybe it's time to go.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
What do you think? Okay? Whatever, you want.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
Now, it would be who was that? No one's gonna
know the difference.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Yeah, she's got all the young friends coming to party
and and Amy are gonna be tripping the life, and.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
She doesn't have I have to tell you. She is
actually older than I am. She's a very old soul.
She is, so she knows. She knows our music, my music.
She knows that because her Are you ready for this?
Her parents, her dad is six months older than I am.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
How's that? Remember the first time we met, she introduced
me to her dad, Louis.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
She said, Bill, this is Louie, Louie Bill, And I
look at him and go, so do I call you dad?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
And he said, no, you can call me Louie. That works.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Her parents are charming as hell.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Oh yeah, they're great people. They are great, lovely, great, great, great,
great people. Okay, what else we can talk about? Well
we got and of course we have all kinds of
news as we normally do. But first to quick Hello, Will,
good morning, good morning Bill? Okay, hey, happy Camper or
Neil we always talked, so it doesn't I don't even
(03:54):
say good morning. Neil is not going to be your
Friday because he's filling in for Conway?
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Right?
Speaker 2 (04:00):
And who's filling for mo Is? Did you say Tiffany
is filling okay?
Speaker 4 (04:09):
And so it was lovely and smart as hell.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
It's yeah, yeah, And we used to have a real bench.
I think is she the only weekend talk show host
that does fill in? Uh?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
During the week we.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Used to have.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
You have Chris Merrill and Mark, But Chris is not
a regular. Wait a second, Chris is not regular?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Is Ian? Mark is not a regular? I'm talking about
regular weekend talk show hosts. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
I've got a whole theory.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Maybe it's because I when I was weekends, I filled
in for everybody overnight.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
It was it was very different back then. Yes, we
had a bench, and it was different.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Very much, so very much.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
For we had seven to nine o'clock slot, and it
was known as the death slot here at KFI, and
and they would go through hosts basically as often as
I changed my underwear about once a week.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
There, Wayne Resnick, you had Stephanie Miller, You had so
many people.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
And so I was now starring on Broadway or off
Broadway in a play?
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Is he?
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:19):
I love Phil? Phil is brilliant and he has a podcast.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
He's doing very very well with I mean, there's a
whole world to Phil Henry just one of the most talented,
unique characters out there in the world of radio.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
All Right is a doubt, yep.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
And there's Amy.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Good morning, Hi Bill, Hi Kno and and Okay, guys,
we have lots to talk about.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Did we go off on a few tangents this morning?
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Yes, we did, just a few, all of us.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yes, this is gonna be the Tangent Show, is what
we're gonna call it from now on. Okay, handle on
the news with Amy, Neil and me lead story. But
the redistricting hearing is going to happen. First of all,
Texas is going to vote on redistricting new congressional districts,
(06:11):
which will create five more Republican districts because you can
redistrict Jerrymander and that's what's going on. California is doing
the same thing and retaliation to bring in five more
Democratic seats.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
And I'm going to talk more about that at seven o'clock.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
And there are so many people against it, including Democrats,
which I don't understand. For some reason, they're okay with
the Republicans doing it to create more Republican seats. But
we shouldn't do it here in California, Oh, because it's illegal. Well, okay,
we're passing laws where it is legal.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
All right.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
You put something on the ballot, you change the rules.
That's what happens all the time. And so we're going
to talk more about that. A lot of this makes
no sense to me at all, and that conversation will happen.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
Moving on scrutinizing the Smithsonian, the Trump administration says that
it will review Smithsonian museums. They've been hinting at it
for a while now, but now it's official. Calling the
museum's portrayal of US history too negative, Trump wrote on
Truth Social the Smithsonian is out of control. Where everything
(07:21):
discussed is how horrible our country is, how bad slavery was,
and how unaccomplished the downtrodden have been. There's nothing about success,
nothing about brightness, nothing about the future.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Now why the BBC did a story on this?
Speaker 4 (07:36):
Wait, there's nothing about the future in a museum.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
No, andc.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
The BBC did a story and what they were filming
at the time was a replica of Neil Armstrong going
down the Lunar Lander and what he said his last step,
you know, as said, there's nothing about how.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Great America is.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Trump says, And there it was, and the quote that's
one small step for white men and one giant step
for mankind. It was right there, and I went, yes,
that makes sense. Anyway, it's gonna tear tearry it all apart.
Slavery is you know, it's not all bad. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
The Holocaust Museum too, is gonna you know, talk about
some of the designing and how stripes were slimming. It's
asinine to think that you could put any spin on slavery. Now,
I I will tell you that most Americans don't understand
much about slavery. About how many would would you think
(08:42):
that Brazil had more slaves than the United States?
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (08:46):
I did? Yeah, I in terms of the share numbers,
I don't know that.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Million slaves came in and under eighty eight thousand came
to the US.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Where's million?
Speaker 2 (09:00):
When sold on a minute? Hold on me, how much
at our peak they had?
Speaker 4 (09:07):
At our peak we had just under four million?
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Okay, let me, I don't know if that's three.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Hundred thousand came over and then the rest of it,
the rest of them were born here.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Yes, well no, and then they and then they pro
created up to almost four million.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Actually even more than that. They were actually bred to
create more slaves.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
No spin, but most people would assume that the United
States had more of that twelve million original that came
to the Americas, and it's not the case. Those things
are important, but you can't spin. You can't spin slavery
into something good. And you can't say, oh, you know,
(09:55):
people are always talking about the bad part of slavery.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Well, I don't know, and this is and I don't understand.
I certainly can see the argument that we should spend
more time and it's no argument. I don't know if
it's true or not, more time talking about our freedoms
and the future, and really concentrate on the.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
Great part of America.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I don't have a problem with that.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
But then, but down playing slavery is and other parts
of it by the way civil rights that it's not
that big a deal, and downplaying the negative parts of America.
We have tons of negative I mean tons, as every
country does.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
And our greatness should come from admitting those things and
not reliving them, by owning up to them and saying
this will never happen again.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Hey, sirih how many slaves were there in the South
during the Civil War?
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Okay, Georgia four hundred and sixty two, Junia four hundred
and ninety thousand, Mississippi four hundred and thirty six. So
we're talking just in those states, we're talking five six million.
So I mean there were a ton, obviously massive amounts. Okay,
at the peak it.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Was under four million. We got three hundred and eighty
eight thousand in the first twelve million.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
I came to the mayor.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
I'm not doubting that. Okay, I understand you're looking at
the figures.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
I'm not I get it. Actually he's not looking at
the figures.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
I'm not looking at your figure.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Oh, thank you so much. All right, enough of that.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
So the Palisades Fire.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Still a lot of questions this far out from January,
and one of them comes by. Some of them are
supposed to be answered by way of a report detailing
the handling of the Palisades fire. However, the mayor cannot
release these or we can't see any of this at
this point because there is a federal investigation as well
(11:58):
going on about the blaze. So the mayor came out
yesterday said that she can't release this information or they
don't want to interfere with the federal investigation.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
As to cause question, this is a local fire.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
I don't quite know where the FEDS are involved, other
than you have a utility that is connected to the
grid that therefore goes across state lines.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
I would think it'd be the other way around.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Local fire, local authorities, local investigations, and if the FED
wants to get involved in the investigation, okay, go right ahead.
But saying oh no, we're not going to release our
local report until at the request of the Feds.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Well, you are echoing some of the frustration that's coming
out from those who want the information.
Speaker 4 (12:46):
There is.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Sharon de Luca. I guess who serves on the city's
fire commission. It's a citizen panel, but she serves on
that as over sees the Los Angeles Fire Department is
looking into this thing. We want that information because we're
in fire season. We want to know what we did
wrong so we don't do it again.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
Tracking ice, Anaheim has unveiled a new website and along
with local residents, they are providing real time updates to
ice raids in the City. The website is called contigo,
which means standing with you in Spanish. The Anaheim spokesperson,
(13:31):
Mike Leister says, we're tracking reports and actual incidents throughout
the city in the region and doing it in real time.
So there was a raid at the home depot over
the weekend and it was up on the website within
about five minutes. Another raid was reported at the Euclid
car wash on Saturday, and also that was up within
about five minutes of when it started.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Yeah, this takes the concept of sanctuary city to another level.
It's not just the city won't cooperate with the Feds
or Ice. Now, it's the city will tell everybody where
Ice is. Uh, it's moving towards that home deep over there,
watch out, or it's going to in this case, that
(14:10):
particular car wash. Letting people know where the raids are.
Very interesting stuff.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
Yeah, tell you Amy lives. She and I lived near
each other. Amy.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Have you noticed that, like on Ring or any of
those neighborhood apps, that it went from package thieves and
you know, homeless people. Now all it is is where
Ice is and that there's coyote packs right the streets.
Speaker 5 (14:34):
Coyotes and icy and still some porch pirates, but mainly Ice.
And then and they use the little ice imog.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
You don't write ice out. They just put the little
Ice icon and it's everywhere, you know. They that's all
you see these you render.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
You wonder what you wonder why l A and other
municipalities here inside of California are at odds with the Feds,
you know, big surprise.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
Huh oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
And meanwhile we've got our governor going full board against Trump,
which is hilarious. All right, uh so all you kids,
don't worry about it. Your president, Your president's on fleek yo.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
The White House has joined TikTok. They now have at
White House for you to enjoy. They did their first
initial video showing foot footage of Trump as he declared
I am your voice so and then typed in America,
we are back.
Speaker 4 (15:34):
What's up TikTok?
Speaker 3 (15:36):
Yo?
Speaker 4 (15:36):
Yowres he Trump pres t in the his house.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
He was against TikTok until he realized that TikTok had
a lot to do with his win, bringing young people
to the Trump side, and which credits to his boy
right yeah, actually, Baron, yeah, absolutely, because you remember he
was or the sale of Bite Me, the company that
(16:02):
owns TikTok Bye Bite Dance. Yeah, I was close one
or the other. Bite Me Bye Dance. You know it's
all the same, and now he loves all of it.
Speaker 5 (16:12):
Moving on, RFK is not AOK with this one. The
American Academy of Pediatrics has come out recommending COVID nineteen
vaccines for kids between six and twenty three months old.
Kennedy says that that goes in direct contrast to the
(16:35):
CDC dropping its recommendation that young children get the COVID
nineteen mRNA vaccine. And Kennedy also said that the drugmaker
aspisor in Moderna had donated made contributions to the American
Academy of Pediatrics, and that constitutes a conflict of interest.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
You know, at some point you would think the American
Academy of Pediatrics is more interested in the health of children,
just to guess now, than it is because it's not
a lobbying group for big pharma. But we know that
Robert Kennedy Junior is beyond a vaccine skeptic. I mean,
he's straight out against vaccines. You wait until COVID explodes,
(17:25):
and I'm guessing now all right, but calendar this when
COVID explodes, like measles has exploded relative to the other years,
and those people who those kids that have measles were
not vaccinated. Why I vaccinate anybody against diseases.
Speaker 6 (17:42):
Yeah, but it's a different kind of vaccine.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
It is a different kind of vaccine. There's no quese.
But it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
It's still a vaccine, and it's still proving to be
very reliable, and it doesn't cause autism, and it's new technology,
and that is good news. I just hate getting in
the way of science move being ahead, I really do,
especially when it is this obvious and not that RFK
is against the RMNA vaccine. He says healthy kids should
(18:09):
not get it, and the American Pediatric America Academy Pediatric
said everybody should get it, all the kids.
Speaker 5 (18:16):
I'm curious as to why they're recommending And again, I
don't know why they're recommending it for such young kids
when like ninety percent of the people who got really
sick and died from COVID when it was as lethal
as it was were older people and people with pre
and existing conditions.
Speaker 6 (18:33):
It wasn't kids getting sick.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
It wasn't kids were far far they had a lot
more tolerance. That's true.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
But what they're saying, you know, there's no polio out
there yet kids still get polio vaccine at six months,
the MMR, the MBR a Q elemento.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Yeah, I will say to get when you're a kid.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Vaccines are the closest we have to actual cures, because
everything else is the old saying they have a pill
for everything and a cure for nothing. Vaccines are the
closest we have to actually curing things. And the fact
that we're fighting against them is scary.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
All right, Trump.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
Administration, no security clearance for you. You've got federal government
intelligence community people being targeted and having their security clearance
is revoked thirty seven. As a matter of fact, folks,
current and former national security officials are being pulled from
(19:38):
this roster and being told that they have engaged in
the political politicizization.
Speaker 6 (19:46):
Political that's one of the hardest words to say.
Speaker 3 (19:48):
It is it is sization or weaponization.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
What's fascinting about this is the argument they're doing this
because they have been attacked politically. I'm talking about the administration.
So they are going after people who somehow attacked them.
But they're not using politics to attack those people. It's
a straight out retribution. There is no it's.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Exactly it's complaining about. Yeah, it's that the memo that
went out did not offer any evidence, of course, of
the accusation, which is I do one more and then
we'll take a break.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
This is so wrong on so many fronts. There's a
new development in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas. It's about
an hour away from the closest city, and there's a
group of homesteaders building an exclusive community. Applicants are screened
with an in person interview, a criminal background check, a
questionnaire about ancestral heritage, and sometimes even pictures because the
(20:50):
communities to architects say they must personally confirm that applicants
are white before they can be welcomed in, and.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
They give an IQ.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
They give an IQ test to make sure known over
the has an IQ of more than eighty is going
to be allowed in.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Well, Amy, tell us about those architects of this of
this policy. Yeah, okay, so wonderful they are.
Speaker 5 (21:11):
One is it classically trained French horn player who has
live streamed his own sex videos, and the other is
a former jazz pianist arrested but not charged for attempted
murder in Ecuador.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
A french horn. I'm trying to visualize the sex with
a french horn.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Well, now we all are thank you, Okay, everybody's going
to get investigated, even the police.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
So you have DC officials.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
Saying that the police stats that we've talked about here
on the program about violent crimes dropping in Washington, d C. Well,
they're getting some pushback, and of course Trump says that
you need the federal takeover that he has been pushing. Well,
the Justice Department is now investigating whether Washington d C.
(22:02):
Police manipulated the data to make crime rates appear lower.
So it's unclear what crimes the Justice Department could accuse
DC police officials. I guess manipulating federal data, that type
of thing, fraud ish, something like that. But they're being investigated.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Yeah, I'd like to know where the police do get
their figures, as they keep track of these figures now,
whether they exaggerate or not. However, the Feds, the President
has said crime is out of control in Washington.
Speaker 4 (22:36):
D C.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Now, Pam Bondi pointed out to the fact that there
were x number of arrests, arrests and X number of
guns taken off the street by that felons were caring.
I have yet to see compare this to last week,
or compare this to last month when there wasn't a
federal intervention. I don't know those numbers, but we're not
(23:00):
getting those numbers. We're not getting a comparison.
Speaker 5 (23:04):
I don't know those numbers specifically, but I was watching
a show lest night, and again I don't have them
sitting in front of me, so I don't know where
they came from. But they were saying that both carjackings
and armed robberies were down, like by fifty sixty seventy
over week.
Speaker 6 (23:21):
Okay, when you have that much of a.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Police right and by the way, that backs up Trump's
assertion that if you have if you federalize police forces
in every city in the country, you are going to
see crime go down. We do know that the more
cops on the street, the fewer the less crime is
there that we know. Now it's a question of statistics
(23:44):
and how many federalized police will be there, how many
guardsmen will be there, we don't know.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
At this point.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
I doubt that crime is out of control and I
have no doubts that the police is questionable as to
the reporting there too, So you question both.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
I have no idea who's telling the truth.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
FBI has one numbers, a police have another number, The
state has another number.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
AI is it just culls the numbers that are given
to them by local jurisdictions. They're not making They're not
going out and doing their own numbers. But the balance
here is not you could stop crime easily. You put
curfews on people so they can't leave their home. You
have a police state. The whole balance is about us
being able to enjoy our freedoms and have the lowest
(24:37):
crime possible.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
Okay, Amy, if it's glowing, don't eat it.
Speaker 6 (24:45):
I know that I'm making a joke about it. It's
actually pretty serious. The FDA is.
Speaker 5 (24:49):
Warning people to not eat raw frozen shrimps sold at
Walmart's because of possible contamination by caesium one P seven,
which is a radioactive isotope.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Know how it got there?
Speaker 5 (25:03):
I know it was found in a shipment of imported
frozen shrip from an Indonesian company that uses the business
name b MS Foods. Again, it's being sold in Walmart
and officials have detected the radioactive isotape isotope at four
ports across the country, including the Port of Los Angeles.
Speaker 4 (25:22):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Also, the other brand name is blue Glowing Scrots.
Speaker 6 (25:27):
And you have to oh, it's under great value at
Walmart stores.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Yeah, great blue growing glowing scrots. Yeah, so you don't
need nyghlice at the house.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
On the other side, every rave across southern California, people
have these shrimp around their neck.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
All right.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Italy one of their biggest.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
Glaciers is melting so much so they can't even measure
the way they have for a thirty years.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
They have to do it remotely.
Speaker 3 (26:02):
Now hot summer geologists discovered it that the simple steaks
used to benchmark, you know, they measure by putting stakes
in certain areas and seeing how they retract each year.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
All of those things.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
It's been buried under rock, slides, all kinds of debris,
and it's just too unsteady there the terrain for in
person visits, so it's already lost about a mile in
length since first measuring. The benchmarks were positioned at the
front of the glacier in eighteen ninety five.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Go to the Mendenhall glacier up in Alaska. Where it
used you'd walk two blocks and you'd be on it.
Now it's three miles down the road, or as has
retreated that long, it's or that far back.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
It's really depressing.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
It's gotten to the point where we have more ice
in LA than they do in Alaska. Good night, everybody.
Yeah the waitress, Okay, we're done.
