Will Is not here? Is Michael whatever his name.
Speaker 5 (04:18):
Is there, Mike Moris.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Yeah, hello by Mike Morris. I still hello, Bill, How
are you doing? Yeah, you don't care how. I don't
even know what you look like. Mike. I don't think
we've ever have we ever actually met?
Speaker 6 (04:30):
No, we did work together a long time ago, in
the nineties, believe it or not. I was starting as
a traffic reporter. I think you were just starting your
morning show.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
So it was a while ago.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Yeah, nineteen, I started nineteen what, yeah, nineteen ninety one here.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
I remember very vividly that whenever you would throw it
to a traffic person and a traffic person wasn't there,
you got very angry, and I think you haven't really
changed in that regard.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
I wasn't angry. I mean angry that there's no traffic
person there. What didn't sound good?
Speaker 6 (05:02):
Let's be put it that way, to traffic and nobody
was there.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
It never sounds good.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Whenever I throw it to anybody, by the way, you're surprised, Uh,
no traffic reporter there.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
And now let's go to CATFI traffic. No one's there, Okay, No, Yeah,
that's great, all right.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
I was pre lamictal as well.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
So I was PRELAMITTL.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
That's true. I was pre limited. I even have my
dog now on prozac.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Did you know.
Speaker 7 (05:26):
That I have literally an animal on prozac.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Because the vet wanted the little Izzy on prozac because
he is bouncing all over the place, cannot calm her down.
And so I went to the vat and the vet said,
you got you have a dog. It's kind of anxiety ridden.
Here's some doggy prozac. By the way, Doggy prozac is
regular prozac, and it's I go to Costco, of course,
(05:51):
where I fill my prescriptions.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
And there it is.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
It's uh the name handle right, uh, and it's Isabella.
And you give one just like you know pros act.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
What the dog for you? One for you?
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Yeah, that's why not?
Speaker 4 (06:08):
Just let the dog be the dog.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Because the dog nips at the other dog.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
The dog is jumping up and down constantly, because it's
a dog. No the dog, it's an anxiety ridden dog.
There are dogs that are so mellow, they just are
just hey, what's going on? Hey, things are cool. There
are dogs that just look like they smoked a joint.
My daughter Pamela's dog, Kendle, is the sweetest dog in
(06:34):
the world. At the Persian Palace, there was a hill.
Well you were in that house when there was a
big right, it was that big hill and the dog
would come bounding out, and there were coyotes up there,
and it was it got pretty dangerous. All of a
sudden we heard coyotes and this I wasn't there, but
(06:55):
they heard coyotes. And there is Kendal up the top
of the hill, still within the still within the fencing,
and there was a coyote there.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
And Kendall came bounding.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Out again, bounding up and just sat right next to
the coyote, wagging his tail to say hello.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Coyote had no idea what the hell was going on.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Dogs do not go up to coyotes to say hello
and to want to play with them.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
That's your.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
No.
Speaker 7 (07:21):
I've actually seen Bill go into a closet, grab a
bb guten and shoot animals to get out of his yard.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
He was deer o. God, you know, deer are rats.
They're just big rats that eat everything. So anyway, they
can't do that either.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Coyotes are protected. That's why I can't believe coyotes are protected. Okay,
moving on, Uh, what else? Happens to Hello to everybody.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
All Right, we have a lot going on today, to
say the least, say hello to everybody, and what a
week last week?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
This is only going to be supplanted by what a
week this week?
Speaker 3 (07:57):
As we start the show, A handle on the News
with Stop Yawning Kono with Amy Neil and me lead story.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
We start with clearing my throat.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
We start with a federal judge block the Trump administration
from deploying California National Guard or any Guard troops in
Oregon too. I'll talk about more of that later on,
but what the President has said that these cities are
out of control, strangely enough, their democratic cities. They're out
of control, and the federal troops have to go in,
(08:43):
or the nationalized Guard has to go in. Almost universally,
and a matter of fact, I can't think of any
other time when national Guard was not called for.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
By the governor.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
The governor asks the president to nationalize the guard. That's
the way it normally is. Well, Trump is bypassing that
governor and local authorities do not want the Guard, and
Trump has unilaterally decided he is sending in the national
Guard because of out of control crime, because it's a
war zone, and local authorities saying, what do you mean
(09:13):
war zone?
Speaker 2 (09:14):
We've got some problems.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
There is no issue, but nothing that can't be handled
by local law enforcement, and the president saying nope. Well,
as he nationalized in California, the Trump administration was given
a no go on that one by the Feds, by
the court. And then what Trump did is he took
the National Guard and moved it to Oregon. The California
(09:37):
National Guard moved to Oregon. No one's ever heard of
that happening before. And so all of this is going
up through the courts. Of course, as the president is
stretching the envelope of what presidential power is, I mean,
to its fullest extent. We'll see what happens. He has
won in some cases, he has lost in others. This
one is we'll see how far he can go. As
(09:58):
of right now, a federal judge one and has stopped
another complaint. I thought a lot of people have because
you have one judge can just stop an entire program cold.
And this was a Trump appointee, by the way, who
did this. So we'll talk more about that. That's coming
up at seven o'clock.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
A long way to go to get to peace. Delegations
from the US, Israel, Thomas in the Middle Eastern countries
are set to meet in Egypt today for talks that
could pave the way for a ceasefire in Gaza and
the release of hostages. So apparently the parties will be
trying to come to agreements over things like Israeli military
(10:38):
withdraw lines in Gaza and the names of the high
profile Palestinian prisoners that will be released in exchange for
the remaining forty eight hostages. It's hundreds of Palestinians, President
Trump said in a post on truth Social I am
told the first phase should be completed this week, and
I'm asking everyone to move fast.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
If there is one person that can have enough influence
in this war to stop it, it would be President Trump.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
He probably has the only ability to do that.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
Although it doesn't seem like Hamas is coming to the
table with anything. We've got a twenty point plan and
they said, okay, we'll release the hostages.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
But that's it.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Yeah, yeah, it's not gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
I mean, the Hamas has not agreed to the.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Militarize at all, and you still has not agreed to
give up its governing powers. All it is is the hostages,
and once the hostages are released.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
They have no bargaining power.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
They have no bargaining power whatsoever, except.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
That in the deal they say that if you lay
down arms, then they're not going after you. And the
ones who are in Katar, the leadership, they can stay there.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Yeah, Israel has not said that. Israel.
Speaker 5 (11:50):
Maybe that's in the peace plan.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
It is, but Hamas is not accepted the peace plan
except one of the provisions. And it's now it's just
question of do they does Hamas cave Israel I think
will stop during the negotiations, will in fact stop the
war the incursion of the indiscriminate bombing. I think Israel
will maybe not, could be that once the hostage is released,
(12:15):
Nei Netiano's balls to the wall.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
And then we go back to President Trump.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
If he says okay to that Gaza is decimated even
more than it is now. If he says no, I
think Israel has to cowtown. I think there is that
much influence the president has. And if peace does break out,
it'll be another argument for no longer the Nobel Peace Prize.
It would be renamed the Trump Peace prize, which he
will be the first recipient.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
By the way, I have a face on the coin.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
On the coin, yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 7 (12:46):
Mount Everest, you know, not on my list of things
to do. No, awfully impressed when I hear people do
such a thing, but not my cup of tea. Look
at it from the ground. So you have a one
hundred of trekkers that go up there. They're having unusual
weather and I got to imagine that's pretty intense to say,
(13:07):
because the weather up there is.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
Intense all the time.
Speaker 7 (13:10):
Right, So you have a bunch of these truckers going
up the eastern face of Mount Everest there in Tibet.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
And I've been to Tibet, haven't climbed the mountain.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
Can Have you seen the mountain?
Speaker 7 (13:21):
Yeah, it's pretty, it's tall. So as of yesterday you
had three hundred and fifty trukkers. They had reached a
small town of Quadang Whu Dang. While contact with the
remaining two hundred plus trekkers been made, they haven't gotten
(13:43):
them yet, but they cleared out snow and they took
care of them, brought them down to where they could
get some warmth and some food and happy campers there,
but they're saying, yet it's unusually even more intense than normal,
and they were just thinking people were going to get
frost bite, it was going to go.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Do you know what's amazing about that is that there
were three hundred and fifty of them. I think of
like little small groups of people tracking up the mouths,
but that's three hundred and fifty at the same time.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Yeah, not only let me.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Did you know how many people you've seen photos of
or video of the people that are lined up to
summit to go to the summit. It's like a line
at Disneyland in the middle of the summer. I mean
they literally have to take turns and wait for hours.
It's crazy. And you know how much money it costs
to go up there for an individual trekker. If you
(14:36):
wanted to go, it's about seventy five thousand dollars per person.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
And you complained about Disneyland, I wouldn't go.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
I think people are crazy to do that. I mean, oh,
and you die. That's oh, that's the other thing I
forgot to sell you. You end up dying, and you
get altitude sickness, and you get frostbite and lose fingers
and toes and hands, and you pay a lot of
money for that. See, if you want to lose your
toes to show you how to do it for free,
you don't have to pay that much money. So summiting
(15:06):
to to Everest is okay, quick factoid. First person to
uh actually uh summit out Mount Everest when it happened.
Speaker 7 (15:14):
Who's the name, Well, it's you. I'm assuming you're gonna
say it's not Hillary. Actually it is Hillary, Okay, because
I thought that after Hillary it was Hillary Clinton. No,
it's correct.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
Last name.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
It was Sir Edmund Hillary, New New Zealand nineteen fifty three.
But he wasn't actually the man to summit.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
That's what I was wondering if you was.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
It's sort of a controversial at this point because it
could have been his Sherpa Norgay Tenzig or Tenzig Norgay
And enough of that, why don't we go ahead and
move on?
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Move on?
Speaker 5 (15:50):
Well that was quick. French Prime Minister Sebastian Lakrnou resigned
just hours after he unveiled his new cabin The prime
minister has been a key ally of French President Emmanuel Maccron,
whose presidency apparently not going very well, he had only
been in office for like four weeks before he stepped down.
(16:14):
That's the shortest serving prime minister since the Fifth Republic began.
When did the Fifth Republic begin?
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Bill after World War Two?
Speaker 5 (16:23):
I think after World War two. Okay, clear sign yet
that Macrone has run out of road after five prime
ministers in less than two years. He's just not able
to get any traction and get their government running again.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah, the French don't know how to do.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
They do a lot of things very well, baguettes and
bree cheese, they do great crapes. They don't do government
very well. Although if you're a worker, France is a
great place to go. You retire at the age of
thirty three. You work a two and a half hour
day with an hour and a half of it for lunch.
(16:58):
It's really not bad.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
Was like your schedule.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
It does, isn't it.
Speaker 7 (17:02):
It's pretty good, all right. I had for a long
time got to see Mark Sanchez play for sc going
to the games. He's an ex quarterback for the NFL
as well, and he was pepper sprayed and stabbed multiple
times this weekend by a sixty nine year old truck driver.
(17:23):
This was in downtown Indianapolis. It's an interesting story. So
apparently this box truck was backing up into you know,
an unloading bay kind of alleyway, and they got into
an alter altercation of some kind, and the sixty year old,
sixty nine year old truck driver said, this guy came
(17:43):
at him. It was Sanchez apparently charging him and trying
to get into his car, and it got ugly. They
guy pepper sprayed him and said that he was still
coming at him and he feared for his life and
he stabbed him three times. And so not only did
Mark Sanchez, thirty eight years old and up in the hospital,
(18:06):
he also ended up getting arrested.
Speaker 4 (18:09):
Weird story.
Speaker 5 (18:11):
It is weird, mucking mega Bad Bunny hosted Saturday Night
Lives season premiere, and he said he's very happy about
being named as the halftime performer at Super Bowl. He
says he thinks everybody is happy about it, even Fox News,
and then played a montage of Fox hosts saying, hey,
(18:34):
Bad Bunny's my favorite musician. He should be the next president.
And he's saying all of this because there has been
a huge backlash. People are upset that the NFL picked
Bad Bunny to headline the Super Bowl halftime show in February.
Of course, Bad Bunny is Puerto Rican and he's.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
Not even American. Just ask those people as the conspiracy folks.
They don't even have it American there.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
But he says.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
He's American. No, no, it's not no, no, you're You're
not American.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
You're star. Why would it be what is.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
Not politicized today? Tell me what is not politicized?
Speaker 4 (19:16):
And you know what?
Speaker 7 (19:17):
He should give it to them, And I'll tell you why.
Because his name's bad Bunny, not good Bunny.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
Good?
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Were we expecting good?
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Point? He's also the whole issue of this bunny issue.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Uh, I mean, realistically, do straight guys call themselves bunny?
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I mean, yeah, give me a breath.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
I'm he's a Kendall Jenner.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
I think the.
Speaker 7 (19:40):
Guy, Uh, what's the term that you young folks use?
Speaker 4 (19:45):
Pulls tail? He's doing just fine. Handle.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Actually I'm a fan, but I don't want to admit that. Okay,
moving on, all right.
Speaker 7 (19:56):
Gab Newsom signing a bill giving eight hundred thousand Uber
and lyft drivers in California the right to unionize. Good
for them, and guess what by to Uber and Lyft.
It's already It cost me to cot seven and a
half miles from my house to the station on Saturday.
(20:20):
We were going out afterwards, so I took an Uber
there so my wife could pick me up afterwards, and
it cost thirty five dollars plus tip, seven and a
half miles.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Well, they do dynamic pricing, don't they, So it must
Saturday afternoon.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
So yeah, Saturday afternoon for one.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
I don't know, you know, how how about how.
Speaker 7 (20:45):
About a taxi? We're going back to being a taxi.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
You know, I don't think it's the Uber driver that's
getting it, getting all the money. It's you know, Uber
and Lyft themselves, which is really strange. But there is
independent they're independent contractors. Yet they can negotiate as a
union together, which it's sort of a contradiction in terms.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
So let's I quite understand this.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
The model will be broken and then, you know, and
then it will be on.
Speaker 5 (21:16):
What went wrong because it used to be that the
drivers got paid better. And now when I go you
hear the drivers talking about it. They're like, you know,
they're squeezing us to death. They don't make nearly the
money they take. They did more.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
You know, when Uber first started, I think five percent
that Uber took something ridiculous like nothing.
Speaker 7 (21:35):
Yeah, but they've built the entire infrastructure. I mean that
that app that being able to call a car, being able.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
To know they did understood, and it's built, and it's built,
and and they're squeezing the drivers more and more and
more they are.
Speaker 4 (21:51):
That was gig economy originally, and now it just is
it just.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
If you were talk.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Every time I jump in an Uber car, I talk
to the driver and hopefully he speaks English most of
the time. No, And I ask, you, know, how what
do you do? And of course it's the second job
for everybody except those that do this full time. And
it's a ten hour day, seven days a week. Is
the only way you can make a living at it.
(22:19):
I mean, what does that tell you if that's kind
of work you have. Okay, one of the Hawks.
Speaker 5 (22:26):
Is home, which is great news. So the Harris Hawks
were stolen from Sofi Stadium more than a week ago,
and if you'll recall, they were in their containers in
the back of a gator type vehicle and somebody took
off in the vehicle. It later turned up near Century
(22:48):
City and there is video of some hawks being released,
and they've been out flying around for like a week. Well,
somebody spotted one of them yesterday and Hacienda Heights called police.
Police called the owner and he came down and retrieved Bubba.
So he's got Bubba back. And then the second hawk though,
is Alice. She's still on the loose, but he says
(23:10):
now that they found the one, they're hopeful that they'll
find the other one.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
All right.
Speaker 7 (23:16):
California Institution for Women, this is You've got cal State's
LA prisons system and they have a graduation program and
you just had about almost two dozen women get their
earn their Bachelors of Arts in Liberal studies.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Good for them, No, it's a bachelor's degree out of
cal State LA. And to these women who are in prison,
which you talk about rehabilitation, that's pretty impressive.
Speaker 7 (23:46):
I think that's the education is key to any of
that stuff. And if somebody shows an initiative to work
towards she was the goal like that, it's a good sign.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
In the valedictorian gave a speech on how now you
can write a some note with proper grammar, which I
thought was pretty impressive.
Speaker 7 (24:03):
Billy Jean King was the one who gave the keynote address.
Speaker 5 (24:10):
Uh, we got a lot of bodies and USC is
selenym USC apparently has sold dozens of cadavers to the
US Navy to use for medical trauma training for Israel
Israeli defense forces. The Navy rect reportedly paid more than
eight hundred and sixty thousand dollars for at least eighty
(24:32):
nine bodies. Thirty two of them were used for IDF training.
So apparently they take the cadavers, they pump them full
of artificial blood, which allows for realistic learning of anatomy
experience and instrumentation handling, and use of actual technical procedures
to treat traumatic injuries.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
Well, let me ask this, they blow them up if
these bodies or that will work. If these bodies have
been donated to whatever organization does this, whether you for science,
I don't know, because there's some weird donating your body
to science issues where you really don't know what's where
they're going.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
But that could be completely legitimate. It's just a it's
a weird story.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
But you have someone who donates his or her body,
goes to the US Navy, and then the US Navy
turns around and sells parts and pieces and bodies to
the military or uses itself to train Israeli soldiers.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
I tell you, I don't see anything particularly wrong with this.
Speaker 5 (25:34):
I really don't, well, except that if they're donating their
bodies to science, then USC is charging hundreds of thousands
of dollars for them.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
File But you know, here's it isn't I donate it
to science and then science can do whatever the hell
it wants.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
And I'm okay with this.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
And by the way, it's I don't think they sell
it to is that.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
What they do is they allow Israeli I guess.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Medical students a medical personnel to work on these bodies
and to practice trauma medicine.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
I don't see anything particularly wrong with this.
Speaker 7 (26:17):
Wasn't there a story not too long ago Amy where
the son of a woman who donated her body to
science he found out they blew it up that they
were doing tests, military tests on it or something. He's like,
that's not what she thought was going to happen, or something.
Speaker 5 (26:36):
I don't remember hearing about, like an.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Organ donor or something.
Speaker 7 (26:39):
And she ended up, you know, being strapped to a
chair or something and blowed up.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
But she don't know once.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
I don't think it's specific when you donate your body
to science.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
I really don't.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
Let's say you donate a kidney and you've had the
disease that you've.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
Had, the poly they just blow up the kidney.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
Yeah, or they use the kidney which is now hard
in the softball games among medical scidens. And that is
donating your body to science, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (27:08):
Well yeah, so the polycystic renal disease is benefiting hockey
or football or baseball. Yeah, okay, tracks been there on
that hill and Big Bear is shaken, rattling and rolling.
They had a couple of earthquakes, two measuring three point
(27:30):
five around eleven pm on Saturday night, and then they
had another one that was three point four, and then
another one that was two point five, so three in all.
But they just kept shaking and shaking and shaking.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
But there's nothing there. I mean, three point five is nothing.
When trucks rumble past the station, it's more of a
jolt than a three point five earthquake.
Speaker 7 (27:56):
Yeah, it didn't trigger any of our security stuff, cameras
or anything.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Looks like American is gonna look the other way. So
they're American Airlines is trying to speed up the boarding process, which,
as we know if you ever fly, can be very laborious.
So they say that now they are going to remove
those bag sizers from the gates all across the US,
(28:25):
and that's effective today.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
All right, here, Question number one, have you ever either
experienced yourself used them yourself or have seen anybody use
those bag sizers?
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Because your bags.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
Basically have to be six inches wide and so big
and so long, and everybody's carry on is three times
that size.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
I hope that's a question. Have you ever you ever
use one?
Speaker 5 (28:56):
I have, but it was it was during the pandemic
when they really start to cracking down. But since then
I haven't had to check, and they haven't asked me.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Hey, anybody ask because you're never gonna get.
Speaker 7 (29:11):
You're actually pretty egregious when they like, you can tell
someone's rolling something big in and then they'll ask.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
But well, usually it is because it won't fit in
the overhead. That's when they say, you've got it checked in.
Forget about these bag sizers.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Okay, moving on, all.
Speaker 7 (29:32):
Right, Nobel Peace Prize, just like Bill was nominated. Now,
if some other folks are nominated. And we'll hear today
the announcement for the twenty twenty five Nobel Peace Prize.
In this particular case, it's going to be physology and medicine.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
They actually announced it.
Speaker 4 (29:52):
Oh they are, yeah, this breaking through.
Speaker 5 (29:54):
Yeah, two Americans are among the three people given the
Nobel Prize for medicine.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Saying yeah, because it goes on all week.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
It's Monday through Friday, and the last one, the last
one is Friday, and that one is in Oslo, where
all the rest of them are in Stockholm. And so
I think the best story that is certainly recent story
is when Bob Dylan won the Nobel Prize for Literature,
which was extraordinary. The first songwriter who has ever been nominated,
(30:25):
or certainly the first songwriter ever who had ever won
the Nobel Peace Prize. He didn't show up to accept it,
just wouldn't go No thanks, Why because he's Bob Dylan.
Do you remember Oldchella? Yeah, yeah, it was Oldchella and
(30:47):
they had Bob Dylan there and Paul McCartney and the
Rolling Stones. That were extraordinary. That was on a Friday,
where that was on a Saturday. He had just been
awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. And this is the
gal who does the pr for the folks who put
it on. And she was telling me that Mick Jagger
(31:08):
wanted to go knock on Paul. Mick Jagger wanted to
go on Dylan, knock on Dylan's door, actually his tent
to walk in and congratulate him.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
And Dylan said, now, I'm not interested in talking to you.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
This is saying, noted Mick Jagger during the concert. He
just does not care. You know, Dylan does half of
his concerts with his back to the audience.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
He doesn't even look at the audience.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
He's a weird guy who says, well, he accepted the
prize later on the day before it expired. You have
to accept it yourself. But he wouldn't show up to
the ceremony, not interested.
Speaker 4 (31:46):
Weird guy.
Speaker 7 (31:47):
Well, you know what the meda, the medicine or the
medical winner last year was for micro rna.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Weird weird winners of the Nobel Prizes just weird ones,
weird one and those who lost or were not given it,
and particularly in literature.
Speaker 7 (32:05):
If this, if this peace deal goes through, do you
think Trump will be nominated?
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Oh, he's ominated already Are you kidding? He's nominated by
everybody who is a fan of his or an ally
of his.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Will he ever get it?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
No, And even if he deserves it, he'll never get
it because too many people dislike him personally.
Speaker 4 (32:27):
You remember when he got it fantastic.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
For the prize publicly, I think is considered a no
no among the Nobel Committee.
Speaker 7 (32:35):
Yeah, that's pretty tacky. But you remember when Obama got
it for.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
Being elected, for being elected, for being elected, because that
was his claim to fame. He had just been elected
and he won the Nobel Peace Prize. Pretty impressives being born.
Speaker 2 (32:54):

That's true. All right, Yeah, there's Anne, I said, Hollo tocono.
Will Is not here? Is Michael whatever his name.
Speaker 5 (04:18):
Is there, Mike Moris.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Yeah, hello by Mike Morris. I still hello, Bill, How
are you doing? Yeah, you don't care how. I don't
even know what you look like. Mike. I don't think
we've ever have we ever actually met?
Speaker 6 (04:30):
No, we did work together a long time ago, in
the nineties, believe it or not. I was starting as
a traffic reporter. I think you were just starting your
morning show.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
So it was a while ago.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Yeah, nineteen, I started nineteen what, yeah, nineteen ninety one here.
Speaker 6 (04:46):
I remember very vividly that whenever you would throw it
to a traffic person and a traffic person wasn't there,
you got very angry, and I think you haven't really
changed in that regard.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
I wasn't angry. I mean angry that there's no traffic
person there. What didn't sound good?
Speaker 6 (05:02):
Let's be put it that way, to traffic and nobody
was there.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
It never sounds good.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Whenever I throw it to anybody, by the way, you're surprised, Uh,
no traffic reporter there.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
And now let's go to CATFI traffic. No one's there, Okay, No, Yeah,
that's great, all right.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
I was pre lamictal as well.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
So I was PRELAMITTL.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
That's true. I was pre limited. I even have my
dog now on prozac.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Did you know.
Speaker 7 (05:26):
That I have literally an animal on prozac.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Because the vet wanted the little Izzy on prozac because
he is bouncing all over the place, cannot calm her down.
And so I went to the vat and the vet said,
you got you have a dog. It's kind of anxiety ridden.
Here's some doggy prozac. By the way, Doggy prozac is
regular prozac, and it's I go to Costco, of course,
(05:51):
where I fill my prescriptions.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
And there it is.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
It's uh the name handle right, uh, and it's Isabella.
And you give one just like you know pros act.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
What the dog for you? One for you?
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Yeah, that's why not?
Speaker 4 (06:08):
Just let the dog be the dog.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Because the dog nips at the other dog.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
The dog is jumping up and down constantly, because it's
a dog. No the dog, it's an anxiety ridden dog.
There are dogs that are so mellow, they just are
just hey, what's going on? Hey, things are cool. There
are dogs that just look like they smoked a joint.
My daughter Pamela's dog, Kendle, is the sweetest dog in
(06:34):
the world. At the Persian Palace, there was a hill.
Well you were in that house when there was a
big right, it was that big hill and the dog
would come bounding out, and there were coyotes up there,
and it was it got pretty dangerous. All of a
sudden we heard coyotes and this I wasn't there, but
(06:55):
they heard coyotes. And there is Kendal up the top
of the hill, still within the still within the fencing,
and there was a coyote there.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
And Kendall came bounding.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Out again, bounding up and just sat right next to
the coyote, wagging his tail to say hello.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Coyote had no idea what the hell was going on.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Dogs do not go up to coyotes to say hello
and to want to play with them.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
That's your.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
No.
Speaker 7 (07:21):
I've actually seen Bill go into a closet, grab a
bb guten and shoot animals to get out of his yard.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
He was deer o. God, you know, deer are rats.
They're just big rats that eat everything. So anyway, they
can't do that either.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Coyotes are protected. That's why I can't believe coyotes are protected. Okay,
moving on, Uh, what else? Happens to Hello to everybody.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
All Right, we have a lot going on today, to
say the least, say hello to everybody, and what a
week last week?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
This is only going to be supplanted by what a
week this week?
Speaker 3 (07:57):
As we start the show, A handle on the News
with Stop Yawning Kono with Amy Neil and me lead story.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
We start with clearing my throat.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
We start with a federal judge block the Trump administration
from deploying California National Guard or any Guard troops in
Oregon too. I'll talk about more of that later on,
but what the President has said that these cities are
out of control, strangely enough, their democratic cities. They're out
of control, and the federal troops have to go in,
(08:43):
or the nationalized Guard has to go in. Almost universally,
and a matter of fact, I can't think of any
other time when national Guard was not called for.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
By the governor.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
The governor asks the president to nationalize the guard. That's
the way it normally is. Well, Trump is bypassing that
governor and local authorities do not want the Guard, and
Trump has unilaterally decided he is sending in the national
Guard because of out of control crime, because it's a
war zone, and local authorities saying, what do you mean
(09:13):
war zone?
Speaker 2 (09:14):
We've got some problems.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
There is no issue, but nothing that can't be handled
by local law enforcement, and the president saying nope. Well,
as he nationalized in California, the Trump administration was given
a no go on that one by the Feds, by
the court. And then what Trump did is he took
the National Guard and moved it to Oregon. The California
(09:37):
National Guard moved to Oregon. No one's ever heard of
that happening before. And so all of this is going
up through the courts. Of course, as the president is
stretching the envelope of what presidential power is, I mean,
to its fullest extent. We'll see what happens. He has
won in some cases, he has lost in others. This
one is we'll see how far he can go. As
(09:58):
of right now, a federal judge one and has stopped
another complaint. I thought a lot of people have because
you have one judge can just stop an entire program cold.
And this was a Trump appointee, by the way, who
did this. So we'll talk more about that. That's coming
up at seven o'clock.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
A long way to go to get to peace. Delegations
from the US, Israel, Thomas in the Middle Eastern countries
are set to meet in Egypt today for talks that
could pave the way for a ceasefire in Gaza and
the release of hostages. So apparently the parties will be
trying to come to agreements over things like Israeli military
(10:38):
withdraw lines in Gaza and the names of the high
profile Palestinian prisoners that will be released in exchange for
the remaining forty eight hostages. It's hundreds of Palestinians, President
Trump said in a post on truth Social I am
told the first phase should be completed this week, and
I'm asking everyone to move fast.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
If there is one person that can have enough influence
in this war to stop it, it would be President Trump.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
He probably has the only ability to do that.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
Although it doesn't seem like Hamas is coming to the
table with anything. We've got a twenty point plan and
they said, okay, we'll release the hostages.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
But that's it.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Yeah, yeah, it's not gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
I mean, the Hamas has not agreed to the.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Militarize at all, and you still has not agreed to
give up its governing powers. All it is is the hostages,
and once the hostages are released.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
They have no bargaining power.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
They have no bargaining power whatsoever, except.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
That in the deal they say that if you lay
down arms, then they're not going after you. And the
ones who are in Katar, the leadership, they can stay there.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Yeah, Israel has not said that. Israel.
Speaker 5 (11:50):
Maybe that's in the peace plan.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
It is, but Hamas is not accepted the peace plan
except one of the provisions. And it's now it's just
question of do they does Hamas cave Israel I think
will stop during the negotiations, will in fact stop the
war the incursion of the indiscriminate bombing. I think Israel
will maybe not, could be that once the hostage is released,
(12:15):
Nei Netiano's balls to the wall.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
And then we go back to President Trump.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
If he says okay to that Gaza is decimated even
more than it is now. If he says no, I
think Israel has to cowtown. I think there is that
much influence the president has. And if peace does break out,
it'll be another argument for no longer the Nobel Peace Prize.
It would be renamed the Trump Peace prize, which he
will be the first recipient.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
By the way, I have a face on the coin.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
On the coin, yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 7 (12:46):
Mount Everest, you know, not on my list of things
to do. No, awfully impressed when I hear people do
such a thing, but not my cup of tea. Look
at it from the ground. So you have a one
hundred of trekkers that go up there. They're having unusual
weather and I got to imagine that's pretty intense to say,
(13:07):
because the weather up there is.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
Intense all the time.
Speaker 7 (13:10):
Right, So you have a bunch of these truckers going
up the eastern face of Mount Everest there in Tibet.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
And I've been to Tibet, haven't climbed the mountain.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
Can Have you seen the mountain?
Speaker 7 (13:21):
Yeah, it's pretty, it's tall. So as of yesterday you
had three hundred and fifty trukkers. They had reached a
small town of Quadang Whu Dang. While contact with the
remaining two hundred plus trekkers been made, they haven't gotten
(13:43):
them yet, but they cleared out snow and they took
care of them, brought them down to where they could
get some warmth and some food and happy campers there,
but they're saying, yet it's unusually even more intense than normal,
and they were just thinking people were going to get
frost bite, it was going to go.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Do you know what's amazing about that is that there
were three hundred and fifty of them. I think of
like little small groups of people tracking up the mouths,
but that's three hundred and fifty at the same time.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Yeah, not only let me.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Did you know how many people you've seen photos of
or video of the people that are lined up to
summit to go to the summit. It's like a line
at Disneyland in the middle of the summer. I mean
they literally have to take turns and wait for hours.
It's crazy. And you know how much money it costs
to go up there for an individual trekker. If you
(14:36):
wanted to go, it's about seventy five thousand dollars per person.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
And you complained about Disneyland, I wouldn't go.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
I think people are crazy to do that. I mean, oh,
and you die. That's oh, that's the other thing I
forgot to sell you. You end up dying, and you
get altitude sickness, and you get frostbite and lose fingers
and toes and hands, and you pay a lot of
money for that. See, if you want to lose your
toes to show you how to do it for free,
you don't have to pay that much money. So summiting
(15:06):
to to Everest is okay, quick factoid. First person to
uh actually uh summit out Mount Everest when it happened.
Speaker 7 (15:14):
Who's the name, Well, it's you. I'm assuming you're gonna
say it's not Hillary. Actually it is Hillary, Okay, because
I thought that after Hillary it was Hillary Clinton. No,
it's correct.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
Last name.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
It was Sir Edmund Hillary, New New Zealand nineteen fifty three.
But he wasn't actually the man to summit.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
That's what I was wondering if you was.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
It's sort of a controversial at this point because it
could have been his Sherpa Norgay Tenzig or Tenzig Norgay
And enough of that, why don't we go ahead and
move on?
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Move on?
Speaker 5 (15:50):
Well that was quick. French Prime Minister Sebastian Lakrnou resigned
just hours after he unveiled his new cabin The prime
minister has been a key ally of French President Emmanuel Maccron,
whose presidency apparently not going very well, he had only
been in office for like four weeks before he stepped down.
(16:14):
That's the shortest serving prime minister since the Fifth Republic began.
When did the Fifth Republic begin?
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Bill after World War Two?
Speaker 5 (16:23):
I think after World War two. Okay, clear sign yet
that Macrone has run out of road after five prime
ministers in less than two years. He's just not able
to get any traction and get their government running again.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah, the French don't know how to do.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
They do a lot of things very well, baguettes and
bree cheese, they do great crapes. They don't do government
very well. Although if you're a worker, France is a
great place to go. You retire at the age of
thirty three. You work a two and a half hour
day with an hour and a half of it for lunch.
(16:58):
It's really not bad.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
Was like your schedule.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
It does, isn't it.
Speaker 7 (17:02):
It's pretty good, all right. I had for a long
time got to see Mark Sanchez play for sc going
to the games. He's an ex quarterback for the NFL
as well, and he was pepper sprayed and stabbed multiple
times this weekend by a sixty nine year old truck driver.
(17:23):
This was in downtown Indianapolis. It's an interesting story. So
apparently this box truck was backing up into you know,
an unloading bay kind of alleyway, and they got into
an alter altercation of some kind, and the sixty year old,
sixty nine year old truck driver said, this guy came
(17:43):
at him. It was Sanchez apparently charging him and trying
to get into his car, and it got ugly. They
guy pepper sprayed him and said that he was still
coming at him and he feared for his life and
he stabbed him three times. And so not only did
Mark Sanchez, thirty eight years old and up in the hospital,
(18:06):
he also ended up getting arrested.
Speaker 4 (18:09):
Weird story.
Speaker 5 (18:11):
It is weird, mucking mega Bad Bunny hosted Saturday Night
Lives season premiere, and he said he's very happy about
being named as the halftime performer at Super Bowl. He
says he thinks everybody is happy about it, even Fox News,
and then played a montage of Fox hosts saying, hey,
(18:34):
Bad Bunny's my favorite musician. He should be the next president.
And he's saying all of this because there has been
a huge backlash. People are upset that the NFL picked
Bad Bunny to headline the Super Bowl halftime show in February.
Of course, Bad Bunny is Puerto Rican and he's.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
Not even American. Just ask those people as the conspiracy folks.
They don't even have it American there.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
But he says.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
He's American. No, no, it's not no, no, you're You're
not American.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
You're star. Why would it be what is.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
Not politicized today? Tell me what is not politicized?
Speaker 4 (19:16):
And you know what?
Speaker 7 (19:17):
He should give it to them, And I'll tell you why.
Because his name's bad Bunny, not good Bunny.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
Good?
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Were we expecting good?
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Point? He's also the whole issue of this bunny issue.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Uh, I mean, realistically, do straight guys call themselves bunny?
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I mean, yeah, give me a breath.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
I'm he's a Kendall Jenner.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
I think the.
Speaker 7 (19:40):
Guy, Uh, what's the term that you young folks use?
Speaker 4 (19:45):
Pulls tail? He's doing just fine. Handle.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Actually I'm a fan, but I don't want to admit that. Okay,
moving on, all right.
Speaker 7 (19:56):
Gab Newsom signing a bill giving eight hundred thousand Uber
and lyft drivers in California the right to unionize. Good
for them, and guess what by to Uber and Lyft.
It's already It cost me to cot seven and a
half miles from my house to the station on Saturday.
(20:20):
We were going out afterwards, so I took an Uber
there so my wife could pick me up afterwards, and
it cost thirty five dollars plus tip, seven and a
half miles.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Well, they do dynamic pricing, don't they, So it must
Saturday afternoon.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
So yeah, Saturday afternoon for one.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
I don't know, you know, how how about how.
Speaker 7 (20:45):
About a taxi? We're going back to being a taxi.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
You know, I don't think it's the Uber driver that's
getting it, getting all the money. It's you know, Uber
and Lyft themselves, which is really strange. But there is
independent they're independent contractors. Yet they can negotiate as a
union together, which it's sort of a contradiction in terms.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
So let's I quite understand this.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
The model will be broken and then, you know, and
then it will be on.
Speaker 5 (21:16):
What went wrong because it used to be that the
drivers got paid better. And now when I go you
hear the drivers talking about it. They're like, you know,
they're squeezing us to death. They don't make nearly the
money they take. They did more.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
You know, when Uber first started, I think five percent
that Uber took something ridiculous like nothing.
Speaker 7 (21:35):
Yeah, but they've built the entire infrastructure. I mean that
that app that being able to call a car, being able.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
To know they did understood, and it's built, and it's built,
and and they're squeezing the drivers more and more and
more they are.
Speaker 4 (21:51):
That was gig economy originally, and now it just is
it just.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
If you were talk.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Every time I jump in an Uber car, I talk
to the driver and hopefully he speaks English most of
the time. No, And I ask, you, know, how what
do you do? And of course it's the second job
for everybody except those that do this full time. And
it's a ten hour day, seven days a week. Is
the only way you can make a living at it.
(22:19):
I mean, what does that tell you if that's kind
of work you have. Okay, one of the Hawks.
Speaker 5 (22:26):
Is home, which is great news. So the Harris Hawks
were stolen from Sofi Stadium more than a week ago,
and if you'll recall, they were in their containers in
the back of a gator type vehicle and somebody took
off in the vehicle. It later turned up near Century
(22:48):
City and there is video of some hawks being released,
and they've been out flying around for like a week. Well,
somebody spotted one of them yesterday and Hacienda Heights called police.
Police called the owner and he came down and retrieved Bubba.
So he's got Bubba back. And then the second hawk though,
is Alice. She's still on the loose, but he says
(23:10):
now that they found the one, they're hopeful that they'll
find the other one.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
All right.
Speaker 7 (23:16):
California Institution for Women, this is You've got cal State's
LA prisons system and they have a graduation program and
you just had about almost two dozen women get their
earn their Bachelors of Arts in Liberal studies.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
Good for them, No, it's a bachelor's degree out of
cal State LA. And to these women who are in prison,
which you talk about rehabilitation, that's pretty impressive.
Speaker 7 (23:46):
I think that's the education is key to any of
that stuff. And if somebody shows an initiative to work
towards she was the goal like that, it's a good sign.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
In the valedictorian gave a speech on how now you
can write a some note with proper grammar, which I
thought was pretty impressive.
Speaker 7 (24:03):
Billy Jean King was the one who gave the keynote address.
Speaker 5 (24:10):
Uh, we got a lot of bodies and USC is
selenym USC apparently has sold dozens of cadavers to the
US Navy to use for medical trauma training for Israel
Israeli defense forces. The Navy rect reportedly paid more than
eight hundred and sixty thousand dollars for at least eighty
(24:32):
nine bodies. Thirty two of them were used for IDF training.
So apparently they take the cadavers, they pump them full
of artificial blood, which allows for realistic learning of anatomy
experience and instrumentation handling, and use of actual technical procedures
to treat traumatic injuries.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
Well, let me ask this, they blow them up if
these bodies or that will work. If these bodies have
been donated to whatever organization does this, whether you for science,
I don't know, because there's some weird donating your body
to science issues where you really don't know what's where
they're going.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
But that could be completely legitimate. It's just a it's
a weird story.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
But you have someone who donates his or her body,
goes to the US Navy, and then the US Navy
turns around and sells parts and pieces and bodies to
the military or uses itself to train Israeli soldiers.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
I tell you, I don't see anything particularly wrong with this.
Speaker 5 (25:34):
I really don't, well, except that if they're donating their
bodies to science, then USC is charging hundreds of thousands
of dollars for them.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
File But you know, here's it isn't I donate it
to science and then science can do whatever the hell
it wants.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
And I'm okay with this.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
And by the way, it's I don't think they sell
it to is that.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
What they do is they allow Israeli I guess.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Medical students a medical personnel to work on these bodies
and to practice trauma medicine.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
I don't see anything particularly wrong with this.
Speaker 7 (26:17):
Wasn't there a story not too long ago Amy where
the son of a woman who donated her body to
science he found out they blew it up that they
were doing tests, military tests on it or something. He's like,
that's not what she thought was going to happen, or something.
Speaker 5 (26:36):
I don't remember hearing about, like an.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Organ donor or something.
Speaker 7 (26:39):
And she ended up, you know, being strapped to a
chair or something and blowed up.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
But she don't know once.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
I don't think it's specific when you donate your body
to science.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
I really don't.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
Let's say you donate a kidney and you've had the
disease that you've.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
Had, the poly they just blow up the kidney.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
Yeah, or they use the kidney which is now hard
in the softball games among medical scidens. And that is
donating your body to science, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (27:08):
Well yeah, so the polycystic renal disease is benefiting hockey
or football or baseball. Yeah, okay, tracks been there on
that hill and Big Bear is shaken, rattling and rolling.
They had a couple of earthquakes, two measuring three point
(27:30):
five around eleven pm on Saturday night, and then they
had another one that was three point four, and then
another one that was two point five, so three in all.
But they just kept shaking and shaking and shaking.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
But there's nothing there. I mean, three point five is nothing.
When trucks rumble past the station, it's more of a
jolt than a three point five earthquake.
Speaker 7 (27:56):
Yeah, it didn't trigger any of our security stuff, cameras
or anything.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Looks like American is gonna look the other way. So
they're American Airlines is trying to speed up the boarding process, which,
as we know if you ever fly, can be very laborious.
So they say that now they are going to remove
those bag sizers from the gates all across the US,
(28:25):
and that's effective today.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
All right, here, Question number one, have you ever either
experienced yourself used them yourself or have seen anybody use
those bag sizers?
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Because your bags.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
Basically have to be six inches wide and so big
and so long, and everybody's carry on is three times
that size.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
I hope that's a question. Have you ever you ever
use one?
Speaker 5 (28:56):
I have, but it was it was during the pandemic
when they really start to cracking down. But since then
I haven't had to check, and they haven't asked me.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Hey, anybody ask because you're never gonna get.
Speaker 7 (29:11):
You're actually pretty egregious when they like, you can tell
someone's rolling something big in and then they'll ask.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
But well, usually it is because it won't fit in
the overhead. That's when they say, you've got it checked in.
Forget about these bag sizers.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Okay, moving on, all.
Speaker 7 (29:32):
Right, Nobel Peace Prize, just like Bill was nominated. Now,
if some other folks are nominated. And we'll hear today
the announcement for the twenty twenty five Nobel Peace Prize.
In this particular case, it's going to be physology and medicine.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
They actually announced it.
Speaker 4 (29:52):
Oh they are, yeah, this breaking through.
Speaker 5 (29:54):
Yeah, two Americans are among the three people given the
Nobel Prize for medicine.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Saying yeah, because it goes on all week.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
It's Monday through Friday, and the last one, the last
one is Friday, and that one is in Oslo, where
all the rest of them are in Stockholm. And so
I think the best story that is certainly recent story
is when Bob Dylan won the Nobel Prize for Literature,
which was extraordinary. The first songwriter who has ever been nominated,
(30:25):
or certainly the first songwriter ever who had ever won
the Nobel Peace Prize. He didn't show up to accept it,
just wouldn't go No thanks, Why because he's Bob Dylan.
Do you remember Oldchella? Yeah, yeah, it was Oldchella and
(30:47):
they had Bob Dylan there and Paul McCartney and the
Rolling Stones. That were extraordinary. That was on a Friday,
where that was on a Saturday. He had just been
awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. And this is the
gal who does the pr for the folks who put
it on. And she was telling me that Mick Jagger
(31:08):
wanted to go knock on Paul. Mick Jagger wanted to
go on Dylan, knock on Dylan's door, actually his tent
to walk in and congratulate him.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
And Dylan said, now, I'm not interested in talking to you.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
This is saying, noted Mick Jagger during the concert. He
just does not care. You know, Dylan does half of
his concerts with his back to the audience.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
He doesn't even look at the audience.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
He's a weird guy who says, well, he accepted the
prize later on the day before it expired. You have
to accept it yourself. But he wouldn't show up to
the ceremony, not interested.
Speaker 4 (31:46):
Weird guy.
Speaker 7 (31:47):
Well, you know what the meda, the medicine or the
medical winner last year was for micro rna.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Weird weird winners of the Nobel Prizes just weird ones,
weird one and those who lost or were not given it,
and particularly in literature.
Speaker 7 (32:05):
If this, if this peace deal goes through, do you
think Trump will be nominated?
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Oh, he's ominated already Are you kidding? He's nominated by
everybody who is a fan of his or an ally
of his.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Will he ever get it?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
No, And even if he deserves it, he'll never get
it because too many people dislike him personally.
Speaker 4 (32:27):
You remember when he got it fantastic.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
For the prize publicly, I think is considered a no
no among the Nobel Committee.
Speaker 7 (32:35):
Yeah, that's pretty tacky. But you remember when Obama got
it for.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
Being elected, for being elected, for being elected, because that
was his claim to fame. He had just been elected
and he won the Nobel Peace Prize. Pretty impressives being born.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Yeah, all right, kf I A M sixty.
