She was chunky. Oh, just letting you know.
Speaker 6 (04:18):

Speaker 6 (04:31):
She still would have been too fine.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
She was chunky.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
And I call out people that are fat like Neil.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Neil is way beyond chunky. Neil left chunky a long
time ago.
Speaker 6 (04:44):
Hey, I'm pretty excited. Cono is too.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
They're making another Wizard of Oz movie, so he might
be leaving us for some work.
Speaker 6 (04:50):
I hope you get the mayor pal. I know you
can do it.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
All right, so much for all of it. I said
hello to the crowd, and we might. It's good to
have everybody back. And it's Friday, which of course is
terrific fun because at eight o'clock is foody Friday, when
Neil and I talk about all things food and then
we have ask candle anything. And we did really well
(05:15):
this week with the phone calls, so we're gonna have
a good time. Head by all you're ready to do
it. It is time for handles on the news with Amy,
Neil who is back, and me lead story. All right,
guess what it looks like. Iran is willing and ready
to talk to the US and they're going to meet
(05:37):
in oh Man on today.
Speaker 6 (05:42):
I think it's pronounced Oman.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Oh oh oh, got it all right, And they're willing
and this is Iran there. I think they're sweating bullets.
I do believe that when Donald Trump says, hey, you
know what, you stop doing what you're doing, or we're
going to launch those missiles, we're going to attack you,
they're now taking that seriously.
Speaker 6 (06:05):
They need to sweat bullets to be.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Yeah, yeh, and of course their usual crapola that they spew.
If the United States does anything, if it is going
to engage in not recognizing the sovereignty and security of
Iran in the face of adventurism or excessive demands, then
(06:27):
we're going to go to war. We will attack Israel.
We will Okay, all right, try that one again. All right,
See what happened last time?
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Potential tragedy brings out the bad guys, doesn't it. There's
a man from Hawthorne has been arrested for sending imposter
ransom messages to the family of today's show hosts Savannah Guthrie.
Speaker 5 (06:52):
His name is Heath Well not his name.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Heath Jenki is a Special Agent in charge of the
FBI's Phoenix Division, and announced at a news conference saying
to those impostors who are trying to take advantage and
profit from the situation, meaning the Nancy Guthrie being missing,
we will investigate and ensure that you are held accountable
for your actions. Derek Kalia from Hawthorn is expected to
(07:16):
be in court today.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Yeah, and that was the fear from the beginning as
soon as the first ransom note was received, the question
became is this real or not? Because we live in
that kind of a world now. Also that video of
Samantha Guthrie and her brother and sister and what she
is begging for the return of their mom and effectively saying,
(07:42):
we're ready to talk, We're ready to negotiate, and sort
of the words weren't said but meant, and we're ready
to pay you and just effectively given I'm paraphrasing to
the fullest extent, because they handled it very differently and
very very well, saying we want to reach out and
we're willing to talk. Did you notice how wretched she looked,
(08:06):
I mean the wretched in the sense that her heart was.
And the siblings, all of them, Yeah, they had just
been squeezed like a yeah, yeah, I mean just then
gone through when they did. They've gone through one of
the worst experiences that any family could go through. And
she was extraordinarily close to her mom, which makes it
(08:29):
even worse. And it doesn't it doesn't bode well for
her mother. Although the sheriff says he still thinks that
that Anne Guthrie is still alive. Nancy which Nancy Nancy.
I'm sorry that Nancy Guthrie is still alive, which means
that a kidnapping. You can't kidnap anybody today and get
away with it. I mean, that's impossible.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Other than this fake one that Amy just talked about.
The impostor was did anybody reach out because I don't
I didn't hear that.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
I think there was two. There may have been two
of them, I'm not mistaken. Harvey Levin was on CNN yesterday,
like all day long, he received one TMZ received one
of these ransom letters, and he said, of course turned
it over immediately to the sheriffs, and he couldn't say
much about it because the FBI is involved in investigating.
(09:19):
But what he did share is this was serious stuff.
These people knew exactly what they were doing. They were
demanding bitcoin. It's a real address that the bigcoin goes to.
I mean it was he said, if it was well,
this would be from someone who knew his or her stuff,
and it was a legitimate request, not request demand, as
(09:43):
opposed to some crazy ass doing it with letters from
the newspaper. Magazine's kind of thing.
Speaker 6 (09:48):
It's just that we talked about this earlier in the week.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
And the weirdest thing was that nobody came out early
on that you know of that just with a ransom,
which makes so.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Also, the the medication she needs basically to stay alive
is now almost six days into this thing. You know,
at some point you say this is such an issue
medically speaking. And then of course the blood that was
found on the doorstep and it turned out to be
her blood, So it's pretty Yeah, it's not good news.
(10:21):
I don't think it's but hope against hope. You know,
you have a family member and you're going to grasp
at any straw out there.
Speaker 6 (10:28):
Love to hear your take on this bill.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Trump says he's not going to extend the nuclear arms
treaty with Russia. He says he called for a new
deal to include China on this, which kind of makes
sense to me, So rather than extend new start, he
said it was a badly negotiated deal by the United
States that aside from everything else, it's being grossly violated.
(10:55):
So he wants to go back to the drawing board
on this one and work towards a new treaty.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Right, No, he and it is being grossly violated. He's right.
The problem is is why would Russia not grossly violate
the next treaty that is going to be signed with.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
The question, yes, but what about the China. Do you
think it's smart to add China in there?
Speaker 6 (11:15):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (11:15):
I knew, Yeah, I knew. I thought so as well.
That's sourious.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
And all of these treaties have always been between Russi
and the United States. China wasn't a player, and now
China is a world power. Matter of fact, it is
second the area of the United States and quickly going
to become first.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
So probably you're done.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Anyways, it has to be done now, whether you continue
start or negotiate or a men start, that's a different story.
But the president doesn't like treaties that were signed before
his tenure.
Speaker 6 (11:42):
He wants his signature on it.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Oh, he wants to call it the Trump Russia Treaty.
And there's a great story about a name, a Trump
name sort of. He sort of outdid himself on another one.
We'll go through that in a few minutes.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
Bad Batteries La Fire is trying to convince city leaders
to create some regulations because lithium ion batteries are blown
up and they're causing a lot of fires. New York
City actually did make some changes to their code because
(12:19):
there was a bunch of fires and apartments in New
York City and a lot of them got linked to
those lithium air yeah powered scooters.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Right, and you how about the ones that are in
laptops that you take on airplanes that have ignited. How
about the ones that are in people's pockets that have ignited.
Where Jerry Lee Lewis was so ahead of his time
when he wrote Great Balls of Fire.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
I mean, the guy was brilliant. I will tell you this.
And I just sent a video to rich On Tech,
sent them a video because I use these a lot
in my shop, but I keep them in special containers
and things like that. Don't ever buy cheap rechargeable batteries
(13:06):
by name brand. There is massive, massive difference in each
one of these, and fire hazards go up when you
buy the cheap ones and go way way way down
when you buy Samsung and things like that.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
All right, good advice, You're welcome. Now here's the funny.
Here's the story that I love. I just I don't
know if it's well, I don't know if it's sure
not because we have to we have to mention that
this is we don't know exactly who did this, who
said this, but if it was said, let's just go
(13:43):
through the story, because that's not the.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
Problem with this is all of us can believe this.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Yes, that's problem. Yeah, I'm not doing a good job
of staying my position here. I'm babbling here, But go ahead.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
President Donald Trump apparently told Senate My Minority Leader Schumer
last month that he may be prepared to, you know,
thaw out that freeze on billions of dollars in funding
for major New York infrastructure. There's a lot going on,
Dulles Airport, Penn Station, these things need infrastructure help. And
(14:20):
he says he'll do it on one tiny condition exchange
for the money they have to agree to change New
York's Penn Station, Washington's Dulles International Airport.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
After Trump, Yeah, this is the Gateway project. It's a
huge tunnel connecting New York and New Jersey. I mean,
it's enormous. It's billions of dollars. And according to and
this is not Schumer's office said this. This is not
Trump's office. This is two people familiar with the conversation
according to CNN. So until this is confirmed, and as
Neil said, it's it's believable because it is. It is.
(14:55):
Trump tells Schumer, I will give you the money for
that gateway project if you name the project after me.
It's I don't know anybody else if I heard that
about any other president. It's a joke, that's all it is.
(15:16):
It's an onion piece. It comes out of the onion.
Now this one, I think you're right. It is believable
because we have just a few things. You had the
Trump Gold Card, the Trump RX website, we have the
Trump Class Battleships, we have the Trump Kennedy Center. I
mean it goes on and on and on and on.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
The man who decided not to run for mayor is well,
he's not running for mayor. So yesterday there was rumors
swirling that billionaire developer Rick Caruso was going to get
back or to get into.
Speaker 5 (15:55):
The race for mayor.
Speaker 4 (15:57):
Because of the report that Mayor Bass had wanted that
after action report from the fires watered down, and so
he said he was thinking about it. Last month he
had announced nah not running, and yesterday a political consultant
for Caruso said, you know, Hey, he's really moved by
(16:18):
the outpouring of support that he's gotten. But he's not
going to be a candidate for mayor.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Yeah, which is a shame because I think he would
be the one that would topple Mayor Karen Bass, which
I think she's vulnerable right now. I think these fires
have really hurt her.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
Yeah, but who's running against her? Austin Podner is out now.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
Because there's nobody there. Caruso would be the only one.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Yeah, and you think it would be good to vote
for somebody who puts their money into LA rather than
takes money from LA.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Yeah, he's doing a lot of properties. Okay, one quick
one and then we're going to bail out of here.
Speaker 6 (16:54):
Kno, Who's house? Ram's house? You got it? Rams?
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Quarterback Matthew Stafford wins the NFL MVP Award to the left,
to the left, to the Oh hey.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Hey, hey, okay, that's it. That's short and sweet, short
and sweet. And I assume all of us are going
to be watching the super Bowl this weekend, supervowel and yeah,
I know that ann Is Amy's do it? Neil, are
you gonna watch?
Speaker 6 (17:22):
He'll be on in the background. I got stuff to do.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Oh okay, and will are you gonna be watching it?
I'm gonna be there. You're going to be not in
the stadium. I'll be flying overhead before the game. Oh,
that gives you a good chance to see the game
thirty thousand feet five hundred and fifty miles per hour. Yeah,
you'll you'll be able to catch you out twelve seconds
of it year.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
No, he totally can.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
He was doing the Dodgers game, one of the playoff games,
and he was flying in the playing around the stadium
and he zoomed in, found my seat.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
And it's up on social media. He spotted me in
the stadium.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Noah, wait a second, you are, so you are going
to be flying overhead? Your report from there? No, I
just shoot the camera. It's a camera thing, and no,
I understand, but you're actually I thought you was going
to be an airline. You're going to be on an
airplane going right over. It is what I thought. You said.
I'll be there. We do pregame stuff for the Super Bowl.
We don't actually fly the game, so I'll be in
the Bay Area, like getting the scenic shots in commercial.
(18:18):
Good for you, Yeah, yeah, yeah, fun, Yeah, a lot
of people think that Will has this really minor small
part on our show, which of course he does, but
he also has minor small parts in virtually every side
gig he has.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Okay, Ice is getting the cold shoulder at the Winter Olympics.
US Immigration and Customs enforcement agents are not part of
the Team USA delegation at the Winter Games. That's according
to US Olympic officials. They say there is no or
there are no ICE agents that are part of Team
USA's delegation on the ground in Milan. But apparently Ice
(18:55):
is there.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Yeah, it has been, and it goes to events, international
events like this quite often. So you know, it's obviously
here a more a question of perception and anything else
than they want to make it absolutely clear. So that's
the cold shoulder. Now let's go to another body part,
and Neil, I want to point I don't want to
(19:16):
put a caveat here, Okay, because I'm doing this story
at seven thirty. I'm going to really go in depth
into this story coming up. So just just the highlights
of this if you don't mind, sort of to tease
what we're going to do at seven thirty.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Gotcha, Well, a new term. Look at that guy it's
hung like a ski jumper. So they are apparently ski
jumpers being they and the Winter Olympics are enhancing their
penises to fly further.
Speaker 6 (19:42):
And it's not what it's not like, hey, a.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Little extra weight's gonna pull me, but it is because
of the sizing of their uniform.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Yeah, this is science and get it. Yeah, and.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
Getting a canopy sort of like a uh yeah, they
make they make the penis bigger, which means the suits
which are form fitted are bigger, a little looser, yeahs
an aerodynamic trait two yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
And actually gives you more lift. Uh. It's ski jumpers
with the large penises. Now, this originally started with the
medical experimenters with pole jumpers uh and pole vaulters, and
it tended to work out very well. So now they
moved it over to the uh ski jump crowd. Wow, yeah, exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (20:35):
Trump's on drugs.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
Okay, he's not on well, he is on drugs. He
is on drugs, yeah ye, and he's on the price
of drugs. So they've launched Trump r.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
X dot org or is it dot CoV.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
It's a website that will help patients buy prescription drugs
at discounted prices. President Trump said, you're going to save
a fortune. I don't do a good Trump obviously, none
of us do.
Speaker 6 (21:01):
But it's still funny.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Okay, he said, you're going to save a fortune. The
website is not a platform for buying medications, apparently, though.
It is set up as a facilitator that points you
to drug makers direct to consumer websites and that's where
you can make purchases.
Speaker 5 (21:17):
It also provides coupons to use it at pharmacist.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Now, this is not a big deal except that it
is something. It's better than nothing, and it's moving in
the right direction.
Speaker 5 (21:27):
The Taylor for my cat for fifty dollars instead of
four hundred dollars, I'd.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Be absolutely But then there's good RX. There's there are
other websites that do the same thing. But I'm going
to give kudos to this and it's yeah, and it's
Trump RX. And by the way, you can do a
great impression of Trump. Amy. All I have to say is, hi,
welcome back to Trump News. Will I talk about Trump
(21:52):
right here on KF Trump we can yes?
Speaker 6 (21:56):
You know what would should you know?
Speaker 3 (21:59):
It would be good for him if he got instead
of a dot com or dot gov that he gets
dot Trump, Yes, Trump RX dot Trump.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Yeah, all right.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Hillary Clinton, you know we've been hearing about them going
back and forth about being deposed, but now things are
sort of changing. She says, she being Hillary Clinton says
that there's some games being played here and comer is
the one playing them. So former Secretary of State Hillary
(22:31):
Clinton says that she's pushing for public hearings after former
President Clinton agreed. She and former President Clinton agreed to
testify before the House Committee. Now this is all dealing
with the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. But then she
was told that they were going to be putting cameras
in there, and I'm guessing that the concern would be
(22:53):
it being edited or something like that. So she said,
just make it live public. Yeah, there's so they're coming
to terms.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
And the fear was that there was going to be
contempt of Congress issued against the Clintons for not cooperating.
Didn't Steve Bannon go to prison for four months? If
I'm not mistaken for contempt of Congress? So and keep
in mind, the Clintons are merely civilians. They have absolutely
(23:22):
no power or no ability to say anything. Well, I
can say during the course of a presidency. No, I
think that they're liable, open to contempt for Congress like
anybody else, like any other Say what you.
Speaker 6 (23:35):
Will about the Clintons. They're not stupid people.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
So they've got to be navigating this and looking at
it saying, listen, we'll do it under certain terms.
Speaker 6 (23:43):
What we're not going to set ourselves how a.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Bitch of the negotiations with their attorneys went crazy.
Speaker 4 (23:48):
Okay, So what is the real answer. Why was d
n I Tolci Gabbard at that FBI search of an
election office in Georgia where twenty twenty ballots were seized. Well,
at the prayer breakfast yesterday, President Trump said it was
Attorney General Pam Bondi who insisted that Gabbard oversee the
(24:11):
raid at Fulton County Elections Hub and Operation Center. But
then on an NBC News interview, they asked why Gabbard
was there, and he said, I don't know, and then.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Herd's office said that Trump ordered her to be there. Yeah,
I mean it's and by the way, this is the
director of National Intelligence, which has nothing to do with
the FBI. An FBI search one, I mean zero, She
has no business being there. It's all so convoluted. Well,
it's here's what it is. It's there's only one big
(24:48):
agency under President Trump. There are no independent, separate agencies.
It's all one big agencies.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
So he probably was looking at it and said, hey, Gabby,
where don't you go?
Speaker 1 (24:59):
Absolutely, I mean he it's a there's no independence, there's
no separation, there's no Chinese wall or firewall, and so
no surprise there. And in many cases, one hand doesn't
know what the other hand is doing.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
It's like grew from Despicable Me. It's just grew in
the minions that a matter. There is no there is
no hierarchy. They're just minions. Yes, all right, this is
oh boy, bad timing all the way around the All
American Halftime Show that is supposed to be the alternative
to the Super Bowl halftime show. Of course, this is
(25:33):
organized by the conservative group Turning Point USA. This was
to counter the fact that Bad Bunny was going to
be is going to be doing the halftime show and
all the hubbub that was surrounding that. So they say
they're putting together this All American Halftime Show headliner Kid Rock.
They said this is going to be an alternative about
(25:55):
American faith, family and freedom, all this stuff, and then
unfortunately they someone starts digging into Kid Rocks two thousand
and one song Cool Daddy Cool, which contains the lyrics
young Ladies, Young ladies, I like them underage.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
See.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Some say that statutory, but I say that's mandatory quality bality.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Yes, that's a little that's a little rough. I mean,
I'm sure that you'll have people sort of shoo pooh
pooing that. Oh he really didn't mean that, that said perspective.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
The song is written, you know, well I love Little
Girls by Ungle Boyo.
Speaker 6 (26:36):
It's like, I don't.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Know, have you seen the lyrics of some of the
performers at Super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
Oh yeah, you're not claiming family faith in America. Listen,
you the best.
Speaker 4 (26:47):
Super Bowl performer of all time has some nasty old lyrics.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Yeah, but here's the deal.
Speaker 6 (26:53):
They're not saying.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
This is the point though, when you say this isn't
your all American halftime show and it's about a mayor
can faith, family and freedom and all that, and you've
got that, I'm sorry you.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
I mean there's and there is a spin to it.
Amy For example, you know, we have you know men
of the clergy who are caught in compromising positions with oh, children, hookers,
all manner of let's just say, questionable activities. And what
makes it particularly good is the faith and value and
(27:27):
the family values and the Christian values. And excuse me,
I have a hooker waiting for me backstage.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
You're gonna get nailed for that. Yeah, I think that's
the difference. I think that is the difference A squeaky
clean option from.
Speaker 5 (27:42):
I don't think it's going to be singing this song
at the.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Show, probably not probably, buttoire Okay, let's do one. Uh no,
we'll just leave it at that point.
Speaker 5 (27:53):
Why you could make a comment about Trump.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
I can make a comment about Trump, no matter what.
Give me a top I'll make a top a comment
about Trump.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
The Dodgers are going to the White House.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Oh that's right, Okay, the Dodgers going into the White House. Yeah,
that was They've accepted the invitation. And the argument is,
why would you got a lot of teams say no,
thank you to go to the White House under Trump
when they win a championship, and the Dodgers are going.
And their argument is, and it's legitimate, this is tradition,
and it is tradition. Now, does traditions supersede any feelings
(28:25):
about Donald Trump? Well, yeah, for certain certain teams, yes,
certain teams. No, But the Dodgers are going.
Speaker 5 (28:33):
Are they still skipping?
Speaker 4 (28:35):
Because I know during his first term, several sports teams
passed ongoing and I think this term.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Anybody, Yeah, I don't know if other teams. I don't
know if any team that has said no this time around.
But the Dodgers are going there to back to back
world series, Ain't all right? Kfi A M sixty You've

You were pretty chunky.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
She was not chunky.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
She was chunky. Oh, just letting you know.
Speaker 6 (04:18):
When was she chunky?
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Yeah? A year ago she was chunky. How much way
and how much way have you lost? How much weight

Speaker 5 (04:27):
Maybe forty?
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Okay, put forty pounds on her now and tell me

Speaker 6 (04:31):
She still would have been too fine.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
She was chunky.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
And I call out people that are fat like Neil.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Neil is way beyond chunky. Neil left chunky a long
time ago.
Speaker 6 (04:44):
Hey, I'm pretty excited. Cono is too.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
They're making another Wizard of Oz movie, so he might
be leaving us for some work.
Speaker 6 (04:50):
I hope you get the mayor pal. I know you
can do it.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
All right, so much for all of it. I said
hello to the crowd, and we might. It's good to
have everybody back. And it's Friday, which of course is
terrific fun because at eight o'clock is foody Friday, when
Neil and I talk about all things food and then
we have ask candle anything. And we did really well
(05:15):
this week with the phone calls, so we're gonna have
a good time. Head by all you're ready to do
it. It is time for handles on the news with Amy,
Neil who is back, and me lead story. All right,
guess what it looks like. Iran is willing and ready
to talk to the US and they're going to meet
(05:37):
in oh Man on today.
Speaker 6 (05:42):
I think it's pronounced Oman.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Oh oh oh, got it all right, And they're willing
and this is Iran there. I think they're sweating bullets.
I do believe that when Donald Trump says, hey, you
know what, you stop doing what you're doing, or we're
going to launch those missiles, we're going to attack you,
they're now taking that seriously.
Speaker 6 (06:05):
They need to sweat bullets to be.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Yeah, yeh, and of course their usual crapola that they spew.
If the United States does anything, if it is going
to engage in not recognizing the sovereignty and security of
Iran in the face of adventurism or excessive demands, then
(06:27):
we're going to go to war. We will attack Israel.
We will Okay, all right, try that one again. All right,
See what happened last time?
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Potential tragedy brings out the bad guys, doesn't it. There's
a man from Hawthorne has been arrested for sending imposter
ransom messages to the family of today's show hosts Savannah Guthrie.
Speaker 5 (06:52):
His name is Heath Well not his name.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Heath Jenki is a Special Agent in charge of the
FBI's Phoenix Division, and announced at a news conference saying
to those impostors who are trying to take advantage and
profit from the situation, meaning the Nancy Guthrie being missing,
we will investigate and ensure that you are held accountable
for your actions. Derek Kalia from Hawthorn is expected to
(07:16):
be in court today.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Yeah, and that was the fear from the beginning as
soon as the first ransom note was received, the question
became is this real or not? Because we live in
that kind of a world now. Also that video of
Samantha Guthrie and her brother and sister and what she
is begging for the return of their mom and effectively saying,
(07:42):
we're ready to talk, We're ready to negotiate, and sort
of the words weren't said but meant, and we're ready
to pay you and just effectively given I'm paraphrasing to
the fullest extent, because they handled it very differently and
very very well, saying we want to reach out and
we're willing to talk. Did you notice how wretched she looked,
(08:06):
I mean the wretched in the sense that her heart was.
And the siblings, all of them, Yeah, they had just
been squeezed like a yeah, yeah, I mean just then
gone through when they did. They've gone through one of
the worst experiences that any family could go through. And
she was extraordinarily close to her mom, which makes it
(08:29):
even worse. And it doesn't it doesn't bode well for
her mother. Although the sheriff says he still thinks that
that Anne Guthrie is still alive. Nancy which Nancy Nancy.
I'm sorry that Nancy Guthrie is still alive, which means
that a kidnapping. You can't kidnap anybody today and get
away with it. I mean, that's impossible.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Other than this fake one that Amy just talked about.
The impostor was did anybody reach out because I don't
I didn't hear that.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
I think there was two. There may have been two
of them, I'm not mistaken. Harvey Levin was on CNN yesterday,
like all day long, he received one TMZ received one
of these ransom letters, and he said, of course turned
it over immediately to the sheriffs, and he couldn't say
much about it because the FBI is involved in investigating.
(09:19):
But what he did share is this was serious stuff.
These people knew exactly what they were doing. They were
demanding bitcoin. It's a real address that the bigcoin goes to.
I mean it was he said, if it was well,
this would be from someone who knew his or her stuff,
and it was a legitimate request, not request demand, as
(09:43):
opposed to some crazy ass doing it with letters from
the newspaper. Magazine's kind of thing.
Speaker 6 (09:48):
It's just that we talked about this earlier in the week.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
And the weirdest thing was that nobody came out early
on that you know of that just with a ransom,
which makes so.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Also, the the medication she needs basically to stay alive
is now almost six days into this thing. You know,
at some point you say this is such an issue
medically speaking. And then of course the blood that was
found on the doorstep and it turned out to be
her blood, So it's pretty Yeah, it's not good news.
(10:21):
I don't think it's but hope against hope. You know,
you have a family member and you're going to grasp
at any straw out there.
Speaker 6 (10:28):
Love to hear your take on this bill.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Trump says he's not going to extend the nuclear arms
treaty with Russia. He says he called for a new
deal to include China on this, which kind of makes
sense to me, So rather than extend new start, he
said it was a badly negotiated deal by the United
States that aside from everything else, it's being grossly violated.
(10:55):
So he wants to go back to the drawing board
on this one and work towards a new treaty.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Right, No, he and it is being grossly violated. He's right.
The problem is is why would Russia not grossly violate
the next treaty that is going to be signed with.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
The question, yes, but what about the China. Do you
think it's smart to add China in there?
Speaker 6 (11:15):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (11:15):
I knew, Yeah, I knew. I thought so as well.
That's sourious.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
And all of these treaties have always been between Russi
and the United States. China wasn't a player, and now
China is a world power. Matter of fact, it is
second the area of the United States and quickly going
to become first.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
So probably you're done.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Anyways, it has to be done now, whether you continue
start or negotiate or a men start, that's a different story.
But the president doesn't like treaties that were signed before
his tenure.
Speaker 6 (11:42):
He wants his signature on it.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Oh, he wants to call it the Trump Russia Treaty.
And there's a great story about a name, a Trump
name sort of. He sort of outdid himself on another one.
We'll go through that in a few minutes.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
Bad Batteries La Fire is trying to convince city leaders
to create some regulations because lithium ion batteries are blown
up and they're causing a lot of fires. New York
City actually did make some changes to their code because
(12:19):
there was a bunch of fires and apartments in New
York City and a lot of them got linked to
those lithium air yeah powered scooters.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Right, and you how about the ones that are in
laptops that you take on airplanes that have ignited. How
about the ones that are in people's pockets that have ignited.
Where Jerry Lee Lewis was so ahead of his time
when he wrote Great Balls of Fire.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
I mean, the guy was brilliant. I will tell you this.
And I just sent a video to rich On Tech,
sent them a video because I use these a lot
in my shop, but I keep them in special containers
and things like that. Don't ever buy cheap rechargeable batteries
(13:06):
by name brand. There is massive, massive difference in each
one of these, and fire hazards go up when you
buy the cheap ones and go way way way down
when you buy Samsung and things like that.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
All right, good advice, You're welcome. Now here's the funny.
Here's the story that I love. I just I don't
know if it's well, I don't know if it's sure
not because we have to we have to mention that
this is we don't know exactly who did this, who
said this, but if it was said, let's just go
(13:43):
through the story, because that's not the.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
Problem with this is all of us can believe this.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Yes, that's problem. Yeah, I'm not doing a good job
of staying my position here. I'm babbling here, But go ahead.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
President Donald Trump apparently told Senate My Minority Leader Schumer
last month that he may be prepared to, you know,
thaw out that freeze on billions of dollars in funding
for major New York infrastructure. There's a lot going on,
Dulles Airport, Penn Station, these things need infrastructure help. And
(14:20):
he says he'll do it on one tiny condition exchange
for the money they have to agree to change New
York's Penn Station, Washington's Dulles International Airport.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
After Trump, Yeah, this is the Gateway project. It's a
huge tunnel connecting New York and New Jersey. I mean,
it's enormous. It's billions of dollars. And according to and
this is not Schumer's office said this. This is not
Trump's office. This is two people familiar with the conversation
according to CNN. So until this is confirmed, and as
Neil said, it's it's believable because it is. It is.
(14:55):
Trump tells Schumer, I will give you the money for
that gateway project if you name the project after me.
It's I don't know anybody else if I heard that
about any other president. It's a joke, that's all it is.
(15:16):
It's an onion piece. It comes out of the onion.
Now this one, I think you're right. It is believable
because we have just a few things. You had the
Trump Gold Card, the Trump RX website, we have the
Trump Class Battleships, we have the Trump Kennedy Center. I
mean it goes on and on and on and on.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
The man who decided not to run for mayor is well,
he's not running for mayor. So yesterday there was rumors
swirling that billionaire developer Rick Caruso was going to get
back or to get into.
Speaker 5 (15:55):
The race for mayor.
Speaker 4 (15:57):
Because of the report that Mayor Bass had wanted that
after action report from the fires watered down, and so
he said he was thinking about it. Last month he
had announced nah not running, and yesterday a political consultant
for Caruso said, you know, Hey, he's really moved by
(16:18):
the outpouring of support that he's gotten. But he's not
going to be a candidate for mayor.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Yeah, which is a shame because I think he would
be the one that would topple Mayor Karen Bass, which
I think she's vulnerable right now. I think these fires
have really hurt her.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
Yeah, but who's running against her? Austin Podner is out now.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
Because there's nobody there. Caruso would be the only one.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Yeah, and you think it would be good to vote
for somebody who puts their money into LA rather than
takes money from LA.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Yeah, he's doing a lot of properties. Okay, one quick
one and then we're going to bail out of here.
Speaker 6 (16:54):
Kno, Who's house? Ram's house? You got it? Rams?
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Quarterback Matthew Stafford wins the NFL MVP Award to the left,
to the left, to the Oh hey.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Hey, hey, okay, that's it. That's short and sweet, short
and sweet. And I assume all of us are going
to be watching the super Bowl this weekend, supervowel and yeah,
I know that ann Is Amy's do it? Neil, are
you gonna watch?
Speaker 6 (17:22):
He'll be on in the background. I got stuff to do.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Oh okay, and will are you gonna be watching it?
I'm gonna be there. You're going to be not in
the stadium. I'll be flying overhead before the game. Oh,
that gives you a good chance to see the game
thirty thousand feet five hundred and fifty miles per hour. Yeah,
you'll you'll be able to catch you out twelve seconds
of it year.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
No, he totally can.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
He was doing the Dodgers game, one of the playoff games,
and he was flying in the playing around the stadium
and he zoomed in, found my seat.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
And it's up on social media. He spotted me in
the stadium.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Noah, wait a second, you are, so you are going
to be flying overhead? Your report from there? No, I
just shoot the camera. It's a camera thing, and no,
I understand, but you're actually I thought you was going
to be an airline. You're going to be on an
airplane going right over. It is what I thought. You said.
I'll be there. We do pregame stuff for the Super Bowl.
We don't actually fly the game, so I'll be in
the Bay Area, like getting the scenic shots in commercial.
(18:18):
Good for you, Yeah, yeah, yeah, fun, Yeah, a lot
of people think that Will has this really minor small
part on our show, which of course he does, but
he also has minor small parts in virtually every side
gig he has.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Okay, Ice is getting the cold shoulder at the Winter Olympics.
US Immigration and Customs enforcement agents are not part of
the Team USA delegation at the Winter Games. That's according
to US Olympic officials. They say there is no or
there are no ICE agents that are part of Team
USA's delegation on the ground in Milan. But apparently Ice
(18:55):
is there.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Yeah, it has been, and it goes to events, international
events like this quite often. So you know, it's obviously
here a more a question of perception and anything else
than they want to make it absolutely clear. So that's
the cold shoulder. Now let's go to another body part,
and Neil, I want to point I don't want to
(19:16):
put a caveat here, Okay, because I'm doing this story
at seven thirty. I'm going to really go in depth
into this story coming up. So just just the highlights
of this if you don't mind, sort of to tease
what we're going to do at seven thirty.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Gotcha, Well, a new term. Look at that guy it's
hung like a ski jumper. So they are apparently ski
jumpers being they and the Winter Olympics are enhancing their
penises to fly further.
Speaker 6 (19:42):
And it's not what it's not like, hey, a.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Little extra weight's gonna pull me, but it is because
of the sizing of their uniform.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Yeah, this is science and get it. Yeah, and.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
Getting a canopy sort of like a uh yeah, they
make they make the penis bigger, which means the suits
which are form fitted are bigger, a little looser, yeahs
an aerodynamic trait two yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
And actually gives you more lift. Uh. It's ski jumpers
with the large penises. Now, this originally started with the
medical experimenters with pole jumpers uh and pole vaulters, and
it tended to work out very well. So now they
moved it over to the uh ski jump crowd. Wow, yeah, exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (20:35):
Trump's on drugs.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
Okay, he's not on well, he is on drugs. He
is on drugs, yeah ye, and he's on the price
of drugs. So they've launched Trump r.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
X dot org or is it dot CoV.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
It's a website that will help patients buy prescription drugs
at discounted prices. President Trump said, you're going to save
a fortune. I don't do a good Trump obviously, none
of us do.
Speaker 6 (21:01):
But it's still funny.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Okay, he said, you're going to save a fortune. The
website is not a platform for buying medications, apparently, though.
It is set up as a facilitator that points you
to drug makers direct to consumer websites and that's where
you can make purchases.
Speaker 5 (21:17):
It also provides coupons to use it at pharmacist.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Now, this is not a big deal except that it
is something. It's better than nothing, and it's moving in
the right direction.
Speaker 5 (21:27):
The Taylor for my cat for fifty dollars instead of
four hundred dollars, I'd.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Be absolutely But then there's good RX. There's there are
other websites that do the same thing. But I'm going
to give kudos to this and it's yeah, and it's
Trump RX. And by the way, you can do a
great impression of Trump. Amy. All I have to say is, hi,
welcome back to Trump News. Will I talk about Trump
(21:52):
right here on KF Trump we can yes?
Speaker 6 (21:56):
You know what would should you know?
Speaker 3 (21:59):
It would be good for him if he got instead
of a dot com or dot gov that he gets
dot Trump, Yes, Trump RX dot Trump.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Yeah, all right.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Hillary Clinton, you know we've been hearing about them going
back and forth about being deposed, but now things are
sort of changing. She says, she being Hillary Clinton says
that there's some games being played here and comer is
the one playing them. So former Secretary of State Hillary
(22:31):
Clinton says that she's pushing for public hearings after former
President Clinton agreed. She and former President Clinton agreed to
testify before the House Committee. Now this is all dealing
with the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. But then she
was told that they were going to be putting cameras
in there, and I'm guessing that the concern would be
(22:53):
it being edited or something like that. So she said,
just make it live public. Yeah, there's so they're coming
to terms.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
And the fear was that there was going to be
contempt of Congress issued against the Clintons for not cooperating.
Didn't Steve Bannon go to prison for four months? If
I'm not mistaken for contempt of Congress? So and keep
in mind, the Clintons are merely civilians. They have absolutely
(23:22):
no power or no ability to say anything. Well, I
can say during the course of a presidency. No, I
think that they're liable, open to contempt for Congress like
anybody else, like any other Say what you.
Speaker 6 (23:35):
Will about the Clintons. They're not stupid people.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
So they've got to be navigating this and looking at
it saying, listen, we'll do it under certain terms.
Speaker 6 (23:43):
What we're not going to set ourselves how a.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Bitch of the negotiations with their attorneys went crazy.
Speaker 4 (23:48):
Okay, So what is the real answer. Why was d
n I Tolci Gabbard at that FBI search of an
election office in Georgia where twenty twenty ballots were seized. Well,
at the prayer breakfast yesterday, President Trump said it was
Attorney General Pam Bondi who insisted that Gabbard oversee the
(24:11):
raid at Fulton County Elections Hub and Operation Center. But
then on an NBC News interview, they asked why Gabbard
was there, and he said, I don't know, and then.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Herd's office said that Trump ordered her to be there. Yeah,
I mean it's and by the way, this is the
director of National Intelligence, which has nothing to do with
the FBI. An FBI search one, I mean zero, She
has no business being there. It's all so convoluted. Well,
it's here's what it is. It's there's only one big
(24:48):
agency under President Trump. There are no independent, separate agencies.
It's all one big agencies.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
So he probably was looking at it and said, hey, Gabby,
where don't you go?
Speaker 1 (24:59):
Absolutely, I mean he it's a there's no independence, there's
no separation, there's no Chinese wall or firewall, and so
no surprise there. And in many cases, one hand doesn't
know what the other hand is doing.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
It's like grew from Despicable Me. It's just grew in
the minions that a matter. There is no there is
no hierarchy. They're just minions. Yes, all right, this is
oh boy, bad timing all the way around the All
American Halftime Show that is supposed to be the alternative
to the Super Bowl halftime show. Of course, this is
(25:33):
organized by the conservative group Turning Point USA. This was
to counter the fact that Bad Bunny was going to
be is going to be doing the halftime show and
all the hubbub that was surrounding that. So they say
they're putting together this All American Halftime Show headliner Kid Rock.
They said this is going to be an alternative about
(25:55):
American faith, family and freedom, all this stuff, and then
unfortunately they someone starts digging into Kid Rocks two thousand
and one song Cool Daddy Cool, which contains the lyrics
young Ladies, Young ladies, I like them underage.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
See.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Some say that statutory, but I say that's mandatory quality bality.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Yes, that's a little that's a little rough. I mean,
I'm sure that you'll have people sort of shoo pooh
pooing that. Oh he really didn't mean that, that said perspective.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
The song is written, you know, well I love Little
Girls by Ungle Boyo.
Speaker 6 (26:36):
It's like, I don't.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Know, have you seen the lyrics of some of the
performers at Super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
Oh yeah, you're not claiming family faith in America. Listen,
you the best.
Speaker 4 (26:47):
Super Bowl performer of all time has some nasty old lyrics.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Yeah, but here's the deal.
Speaker 6 (26:53):
They're not saying.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
This is the point though, when you say this isn't
your all American halftime show and it's about a mayor
can faith, family and freedom and all that, and you've
got that, I'm sorry you.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
I mean there's and there is a spin to it.
Amy For example, you know, we have you know men
of the clergy who are caught in compromising positions with oh, children, hookers,
all manner of let's just say, questionable activities. And what
makes it particularly good is the faith and value and
(27:27):
the family values and the Christian values. And excuse me,
I have a hooker waiting for me backstage.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
You're gonna get nailed for that. Yeah, I think that's
the difference. I think that is the difference A squeaky
clean option from.
Speaker 5 (27:42):
I don't think it's going to be singing this song
at the.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Show, probably not probably, buttoire Okay, let's do one. Uh no,
we'll just leave it at that point.
Speaker 5 (27:53):
Why you could make a comment about Trump.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
I can make a comment about Trump, no matter what.
Give me a top I'll make a top a comment
about Trump.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
The Dodgers are going to the White House.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Oh that's right, Okay, the Dodgers going into the White House. Yeah,
that was They've accepted the invitation. And the argument is,
why would you got a lot of teams say no,
thank you to go to the White House under Trump
when they win a championship, and the Dodgers are going.
And their argument is, and it's legitimate, this is tradition,
and it is tradition. Now, does traditions supersede any feelings
(28:25):
about Donald Trump? Well, yeah, for certain certain teams, yes,
certain teams. No, But the Dodgers are going.
Speaker 5 (28:33):
Are they still skipping?
Speaker 4 (28:35):
Because I know during his first term, several sports teams
passed ongoing and I think this term.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Anybody, Yeah, I don't know if other teams. I don't
know if any team that has said no this time around.
But the Dodgers are going there to back to back
world series, Ain't all right? Kfi A M sixty You've
