Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from kf I
Am six forty. My ladies and gentlemen, here's Wayne Resnick.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
I Am six forty live everywhere in the iHeartRadio WAP.
Good morning, it's the Bill Handle Show.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
He is back from vacation on Monday. Before we get
to anything else, Now, this might not work, but I
hope it works because it is a very special day
here on the Bill Handle Show. Let's see if I
can show you why. Oh no, that's not the right.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Hold on. Let me see if I can show you why.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Part twoday, we'll say here it's a birthday.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Happy birthday to our own Coono, the technical director of
the Bill Handle Show.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
How many years young are you? Tomorrow?
Speaker 5 (01:31):
I will be thirty six. Wait, I'm just not here
tomorrow tomorrow. So they're celebrating me today because I'm not here.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Yeah, he's ditching us for his birthday. What are you seven?
Take off work for your birthday?
Speaker 5 (01:46):
Well, not taking off work for my birthday. It just
happened to land on my birthday that I'm taking off work.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Oh yes, yeah, And if I see you at the
Chuck E Cheese, I'm off tomorrow too. I'm going with.
Speaker 5 (02:00):
Oh my check is going to celebrate. It's okay, it's
not bad. Well, I listen, it's fine.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
It's probably I probably would not have gone to the
trouble that it took. I appreciate to be able to
play audio from where I'm sitting and to find a
fun little song. And I probably wouldn't have done anything
if I had known that. It is not technically your birthday,
but happy birthday to you. Hold onto that happy birthday greeting.
(02:28):
Hold on to it. It's not active. It's like a
post dated check. Okay, it's not active until tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Got it. I'm all right now. It is not Ann's birthday.
But good morning to you. Good morning. Do you care
to share why you will not be with us tomorrow
or would you rather keep some semblance of a private life.
I'll keep you all guessing, all right.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Fair enough, Neil Savedri, you have no private life. No,
everybody knows everything you do all the time.
Speaker 6 (03:00):
Yes, I like it that way. I'm a man of
the people. Give them what they want and they take you.
You are definitely a man of the people. How are you, sir,
I'm I'm well, fighting a little cold or something other
than Oh.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Okay, Oh you better not miss tomorrow. It's foody Friday tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Oh, yes it is. It might be not screw me
over on a foody Friday. Oh that's the worst.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Screw me over on a foody Friday once, shame on you,
same thing twice. Won't get fooled again. That's right, Amo King. Oh,
Amy King, good morning, Good morning. We have a story, Ah,
you can handle on the news coming up that I
think is of exceptional interest to you. Yes, and when
(03:48):
people will know when that story arrives. Okay, I say,
let's begin handle on the news, Nil Sevadra, Amy King.
I'm Wayne Resnick in for Bill and this is the
big bucks lead story. The Archdiocese of Los Angeles has
agreed to pay a lot of money. I'm purposefully withholding
(04:12):
the amount for surprise, but a lot of money in
a settlement with thirteen hundred and fifty three victims saying
they suffered horrific abuse at the hands of local Catholic priests.
This is after months of negotiations, and this puts to
bed apparently twenty five years of various similar litigation against
(04:38):
the la Archdiocese. The amount of the settlement eight hundred
and eighty million dollars. There will be a process by
which the plaintiffs all decide how it gets distributed amongst
the victims. The archdiocese has nothing to say about who
individually gets what. They just said, here's eight hundred and
eighty million dollars. Is that enough if you figure out
(05:01):
who gets how much? Here's the thing, because I saw
the headline and I thought, wow, that's an unbelievably huge settlement.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
There must have been a lot of abuse.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
But guess what, that's not even almost half the story
because they previously did a settlement of seven hundred and
forty million dollars to a whole different set of victims.
So they have paid out now or will have paid
out once they make good on this over a billion
(05:33):
and a half bucks.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Instead of getting rid of priests who molest kids, they
will be paying a billion and a half. I also, though,
suspect that this is not really going to cause major hardship.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
I don't think they're.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Meeting at the la Archdiocese right now and they're going, uugh,
we we could only keep one HBO or Hulu, which
can we keep?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
That discussion is not happening.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
A discussion that happens in many homes of many good
people who never molested anybody.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
So that's just going on there.
Speaker 6 (06:10):
We're at the Vatican going which painting do we sell?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
That's pretty much which ancient secret jewel? Yeah, that's horrible.
Speaker 6 (06:24):
And the hard working people that put their money in
those baskets.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
And that's a settlement. And I say that because that's
not They went to trial and a jury said, oh
my god, this is so bad. We're going to really
soak you. That's the amount they agreed.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
To pay. Mm mmmm oh. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
That big rally happened yesterday in front of the courthouse downtown.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
Amy tell us what it was about. Well, the big
question is are the brothers going to get a break?
Relatives of Lyle and Eric Menendez gathered downtown to make
impact please for their release from prison. The brothers have
served more than thirty years in prison. The La La
County District Attorney Gascone is weighing new evidence in the murders.
(07:13):
More than two dozen family members participated. They are asking
to either either have the murder convictions thrown out or
hold a new trial or re sentence them in light
of the new evidence, which is that they were horribly
sexually abused by.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
The father who they killed to tell the people what
they did.
Speaker 7 (07:33):
They killed their parents in nineteen eighty nine right with
a with shotguns and apparently then after shooting them, reloaded
and it was jose and Kitty Menendez. They were shot
in their home in Beverly Hills, and the guides never
denied that they killed them, but they said that they
did it in self defense after suffering years of physical
(07:54):
and sexual abuse.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
In the first trial, they were allowed to present that information.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
The jury hung.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
In the second trial, the judge decided not to allow
them to present that information and they were convicted. And
then they had all every time they went on appeal,
they lost. By the way back at the time they
went to every appeal.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Lose, lose, lose, lose.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
Here we are now, all these years later, and there's
some new evidence about the abuse, and this is why
they want to reopen the home thing, the whole thing.
Michael Monks was there from KFI News and he will
join us at seven and give us a recap and
depending on if there's time left after the recap, I
do have something to say about that rally yesterday and
it's not going to be well received.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I don't think I have.
Speaker 6 (08:42):
A question for you Wayne, with the way the courts
work and all of that, since both of his parents,
both of their parents rather are now deceased, even at
their own hand, do they get any of the money
from the like, do they have money even though they're
(09:02):
in prison? Will they come out to the money that
their parents made or inheritance or any of that.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
You know what, that is a really good question, and
I don't have an answer for you. That is something
to ponder because if because the whole point here is
for them to get out, and you're right, and they
will come out, and what will they re well all
the other family in terms of will they have resources, obviously,
I assume all those family members that were at the
(09:32):
rally yesterday would help them out.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
As to the.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Other the kind of possibly nauseating moral implications of coming
out and getting all your parents' money, maybe, which is
the moment they were accused of in the first place.
They were accused of killing them for greed. Yeah, that's
kind of because they went on shopping sprees apparently right
after they killed them. But no, I don't know the
(09:55):
specific answer. I mean if you if you have a
will and your kids are in your will and then
they murder you. I don't know what provision of law
kicks in that says, sorry, you can't have what the
will says.
Speaker 6 (10:09):
The murder clause? Yoho, yoho. A Premier pass for me?
I want to skip as many Disneyland attraction lines as possible. Okay,
what are you willing to pay for it? So Disneyland
Resort will now have a new line skipping option called
Lightning Lane Premiere Pass, and it will cost four hundred
(10:33):
bucks per person. That's in addition to your ticket cost.
And if you want the whole shebang, it's got to
be with your park hopper too, because you want to
enjoy all the Lightning Lane.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Rides, of which there are how many I'm.
Speaker 6 (10:49):
Trying to think, what like twenty twenty four Lightning Lane rides?
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Four hundred dollars to skip the line? Wants to ride
twenty four of the many attractions between Disneyland and California
Adventure on top of the regular admission.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
By the way, you still have to buy the regular ticket.
And this is not a it's not a season pass,
it's not a long term pass.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
It's literally just that day that you're there for four
hundred dollars, you can skip the line twenty four times
once paride.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
You're kind of it's a little reductionistic because you're leaving
out the fact that you also get to feel superior
to everybody else. So it's not just the line hopping,
it's the oh sorry, I'm going in front of you,
which I.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
Think you go in front of even the lightning lane people. Yeah,
I mean how you'll go right to the front.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
How much is.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
That worthwaye that feeling of superiority, yes, being a part
of late stage capitalism that combines profit driven motive with elitism.
How much is it worthway? Did you ask me how
much is it worth? Or how much does it feel? Well? Well,
the feeling is what's got the value here. You asked
me how much the feeling is worth? What would you
(12:04):
pay to pass everybody up and make it feed?
Speaker 2 (12:09):
No? I mean, I just I don't. I would not go.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
I don't know what it would take to get me
to Disneyland ever again, oh my, at this point.
Speaker 6 (12:15):
I'm going, I don't. I wouldn't pay this. I don't
have any need. The line is part of the find
if you don't.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
You know, if you don't pay, you spend all day
in line.
Speaker 7 (12:26):
If you pay, excuse me, no you don't.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Oh, here we go, all right? Hold on, if Neil
and me.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Let Amy King have an absolutely uninterrupted thirty seconds here
to speak her mind, go listen.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
I don't think this is a great idea.
Speaker 7 (12:44):
I think it's it's excessive, and it is it's just
for rich people, and I don't agree with this.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
But you can do the.
Speaker 7 (12:51):
Lines and not spend the whole day. You just have
to watch and be careful and pick your day. And
like Neil said, it's part of the experience. And if
you want to spend the thirty or thirty five dollars
and get the fast pass or the lightning pass or
whatever the heck they're calling it these days, you can
do that if you want to spend a little less
time in the lines, but it's it is part of
(13:12):
the experience, and you don't spend the whole day in lines.
I think that you you could, but not if you're
smart about it.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
You're referring to the Lightning Lane multi pass add on,
which is only thirty two dollars, and what it allows
you to do is schedule a time later to come back.
This just seems like there's so much logistical overhead now
to go to Disneyland.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Yeah, that great.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
I mean everybody should see Disneyland or disney World once,
certainly maybe two three times over the course of your life.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Yes, but like on a regular basis, is it really
that great? Yale? Is it worth this? I don't think
it's worth four hundred dollars.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
If that's your thing, or you're doing it like let's
say you were sellinglebrating in Kno's birthday, and I'm not
saying that you go with Kno. I'm saying you're celebrating
it in spirit and people you like, and you do
that and it's it's nice. But the lines, now, the
queues are part of the ride. And I happen to
really enjoy talking to my wife, so it's like a
(14:18):
long car ride.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
You just connect, talk to me, stay home and talk
to her for free. But we do that.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
There's something magical about Disneyland. Though we like just walking around.
There's sometimes we won't go, and the passes afford you this,
you're not going, you know. I feel for people to
just go once a year that feel like they have
to cram everything in.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Yeah, that sucks.
Speaker 6 (14:38):
But if you have a pass, you can just go
and have dinner there or walk around or you know,
listen to the music or watch the fireworks or whatever.
Speaker 7 (14:48):
There's a lot to do besides just the rides. Yeah,
I agree, But I think Neil you said it very well.
The pass affords you that where you can just go
walk around. But I think Disneyland's a magical place. It's
not for everybody.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
I get it.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
That's fine. They're trying to make it so it's not
for almost anybody. No, it's gonna be all it's gonna
be all Lamborghinis in the Mickey lot.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Ooh, it'll be all Lamborghinis. Yeah, that'd be fun.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
Yeah, you're gonna actually you're gonna actually have to pay
for registration for the cars, probably license and registration and
all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
And then some guy will detail it for you. Yeah.
All right.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Let's talk about Kamala Harris. She went on Fox News
and was interviewed by Brett Baer and he, you know,
he I don't think he was out of line at all,
but he he was tough and he was firm, and
he asked some tough questions, and I thought she did
perfectly well. I think, to me, the interesting angle here
is what does this say about the thinking of the
(15:54):
Harris Walls campaign. And they're thinking, as obviously, there are
some Republicans who normally would vote Republican but could be
swayed this time to not vote Republican because of who
the Republican candidate is. So go on Fox News and
see if you can get somebody in the red rover
come over. And you're also seeing it in their campaign
(16:17):
stops where she's showing up with Liz Cheney, she's showing
up with people who worked in the Trump administration, other
Republicans who split from Trump. This is now their their
focus because they don't have to convince almost any Democrat.
They have to convince the Republicans who aren't sure what
(16:37):
they should do.
Speaker 7 (16:39):
Well, Jimmy Carter can now go in peace if he
still chooses. Jimmy Carter, former president, just turned one hundred
and has now fulfilled an end of life goal of
voting for Vice President Kamala Harris. His son said, they
did the vote. It was a good morning for him
and good for us that he got it done.
Speaker 6 (17:01):
Very nice, nice, I think he installed solar powers on
his head. That's the only well, that's the only reason
why he's still alive.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
He is fully solar now, or.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
He lived or he lived a clean life and a
good life doing good works.
Speaker 6 (17:22):
Made a lot of peanuts, I say, solar all right,
vote overseas voters now. So there's this ballot process, been
around for a long time.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Both parties love it.
Speaker 6 (17:36):
It has its connection here to the US military because
when they are abroad or they're out of the country
that they can still be a part of the election. Well,
now you've got Donald Trump suggesting, and some say without
any evidence, that the overseas vote is a source of fraud.
(17:57):
And there's about sixty or six point five million eligible
American voters living or serving and studying overseas.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
So three states have filed lawsuits and what they want,
basically is to segregate all of those overseas ballots. Why
would you specially segregate a certain subgroup of ballots to
scrutinize them within an inch of your life and depending
on how the election goes to perhaps declare that they
(18:31):
should be thrown out. And this which is us enfranchising
the people who are serving in our military across the world.
Speaker 6 (18:39):
It seems that maybe at one time that might have
been more of a conservative group of people, but now
there is evidence that no, it's the group that votes
abroad tends to be Democrats now and you know, so
that's gonna be right.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Years years ago, Republicans would never have dreamed to try
to to try to invalidate the overseas ballots. But the
times have changed, and so of the dirty tactics. Liam Payne,
former member of boyband One Direction, has died. He fell
out of a window or did in Buenos excuse me?
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Or did he? Oh? Stop it?
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Well you think somebody pushed him out of a window.
Speaker 6 (19:29):
There are We're still jumped.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Oh oh oh, I see what you're getting at.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
There's accounts of him that he might have been high
and that he was destroying his room. I know an
hour before he the incident, he did post something online
on Snapchat or something.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
I saw it. It didn't look like he was under
duress or anything. But what you know, the.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Weird thing about this is so he he even if
he jumped, he still fell correct.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Okay, so we found out of the window.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Yeah, Well, here, I'm trying trying to get to Amy's point.
I think primarily so he fell out of the window
and he's dead, and the cops come, and then the
cops make a statement. They never mention him. They don't
say we're talking about him. They just say, oh, so happens.
(20:23):
We went to the hotel because we got a call
that there was an aggressive man, possibly under the influence.
Now why say that if you're not gonna say Liam
Payne was that man? He the call was either about
him or it was not about him. If it was
not about him, you don't have to say anything. And
(20:45):
if it was about him, if you're gonna say something,
shouldn't you tell us who you're talking about. So I
don't know why they did it that way, unless it's like, hey,
we were called for a guy who is maybe under
the influence and acting radically wink wink.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Well maybe they didn't know who he was.
Speaker 6 (21:04):
They weren't called for him, They were called for some
guy who later turned out to be No, but.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
They would they would know it was the guy who
jumped or fell out of the window, whether whether they
knew his identity or not. Don't you be an apologist
for the Buenos Aires PD Neil.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
I'm just concerned that they're not here to defend themselves.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
They'll be fine. New rules, no way.
Speaker 7 (21:32):
Judge and Georgia has declared that seven new election rules
recently passed by the state election board are illegal, unconstitutional,
and void. The rules invalidated by the judge include one
that requires the number of ballots to be hand counted
after the close the polls closed, and two that have
to do with certifying the election results.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
They tried a lot that state election board run by
Republican and this judge said no to virtually all of it.
And I like, what did you say? Can say the
part again about what he declared those laws to.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Be illegal, unconstitutional, and void.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
So what do these election laws that were overturned have
in common with showman Nathan Lane?
Speaker 2 (22:25):
They're both triple threats?
Speaker 6 (22:27):
Oh wow, wow.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
I mean anyway, he really the judge really went to
town because if they're uncon because this is Russian nesting
dolls of legal status. If you're unconstitutional, then by default
you're illegal and void. You see what I'm saying, Like
he could have just said they're unconstitutional, but he really
wanted to hit.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
All.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
He wanted to really beat him up.
Speaker 6 (22:56):
It's like a preacher that says everything three times, God
will come down and heal you, take away your.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Pain, bare your cross. Yes, it's like exactly what it's like.
I got it. Speaking of a godlike figure.
Speaker 6 (23:12):
Oh boy, well triple threat all right, Elon Musk tech mogul.
Maybe you've heard of him. World's richest person, kind of
a guy you might know. Apparently put more than seventy
million into helping Donald Trump and other Republicans win November's election,
(23:32):
making him the biggest donor to the GOP causes in
this campaign season. This particular pack is called America Pack,
and that, of course is one of those super political
action committees. And I remember, you know, he says American
Pack is aiming for common sense, centrist values. That's up
(23:53):
to you, I suppose, But I remember when they were
originally saying that he was going to give forty million
dollars a month or something. So I don't know where
this number comes from and all of that, but yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
These the ability of some of these people to be
so impossibly two face. They should be in the DC
Comics universe with how two face they are. Jd Vance,
who was talking the smackiest smack about Donald Trump and
is now his running mate Eon Musk, who used to
talk about he couldn't wait for Donald Trump to go away,
(24:29):
and is now spending a bunch of money to help
him be the president.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Again. Odd, isn't it. It's not odd, it's money.
Speaker 7 (24:39):
Oh, I bet he'd buy those four hundred dollars Premier
Lightning line passes.
Speaker 6 (24:42):
Who elon Musk only for Trump and Trump doesn't even
need him.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
There's a new technology coming to a supermarket near you
that many people are saying is evil. It's called ESL,
or Electronic shelving labels. They're basically digital price tags, and many,
including some people in Congress, are saying this is going
to lead to dynamic pricing of your groceries and discriminatory
(25:12):
price gouging because these digital tags also have facial recognition,
so you walk up to the mayonnaise and it can
see your face and it can change the price if
it wants to. Now, these are coming to Kroger now,
so that would mean rouse probably. I don't know if
(25:34):
Kroger trickles down all of their ideas to all of
their subsidiary names, but around here that would be a rouse.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
For example, they say.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
What it allows them to do is, let's say they
put something on sale.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
They don't have to send a guy around to do it.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
They can just go, oh, the mayonnaise is now fifty
cents off.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Boom, now it's on the tag. See.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
It's just like when Wendy's was taught about their digital
menu signs and and dynamic pricing. I don't think they
ever said dynamic pricing, and Kroger is not saying the
phrase dynamic pricing, and people, well it went crazy and
Wendy's Wendy said, we would never use it to raise
the price of anything. It allows us to push deals
(26:20):
through immediately. And I'm I'm hoping that's Kroger's idea as well.
Dynamic pricing only in the sense that maybe there's something
we want to really highlight, or maybe we have.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
Too much and we want to facial facial recognition part, well.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
That's the part I don't unless it's going to be
tied into your loyalty account and they'll know it's you.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
And they'll know if you've bought it before.
Speaker 7 (26:47):
Like when I go to my Pavilions app, it says,
here's items that you like and have bought before, and
then they show me if there's if they're on special,
so maybe it'll go bring that one's on.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Sale, or maybe they make it on just for you
as a perk.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
Right now, this is us ascribing only the best intentions here.
I'm not naive at all. And you know, Cono, the
bump you played coming in is not about the money.
I believe it's absolutely about the money. But I'm not
sure that even a big corporation as greedy as they are,
(27:22):
I'm not sure they would put a system in place
to say, oh, there's a black shopper, raise the price
of the cereal.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
So I'll have to see it when it rolls out.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
I guess when it rolls out, we'll see what it
does and how it works. And hey, public sentiment shut
down Wendy's plan, So if this is actually bad in
any way, public sentiment I assume will shut it down.
Speaker 7 (27:48):
So at this point, though, Wayne, if I'm understanding, they're
Kruger's not doing this. They're not doing price gouging. The
lawmakers are basically wanting to pass a preemptive law.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Yes, the lawmakers like Rashida Khalieb, they're assuming the worst.
We trying here to assume the best. She and other
lawmakers they're assuming the worst. And this is where we
are with technology. Every time there's a new technology there
And I'm not even criticizing these people.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
I'm just saying, there's a.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Group of people who immediately look at what's the worst
thing they could do with it? What's the most evil
thing that could be done with this technology. Probably should
be grateful to them for, you know, pointing out the
possible caveats.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
But I don't want to amy. I don't want to
be a pill about it. Oh okay.
Speaker 7 (28:44):
Three states are pushing the envelope when it comes to pills.
Four months after the Supreme Court tossed out a high
profile challenge to the abortion drug mif at pristone, Missouri, Kansas,
and Idaho have filed in an amended lawsuit in federal
court in Texas a US District judge to roll back
the efforts of the FDA over the past eight years
(29:08):
to ease access to the drug, things like allowing it
to be dispensed through the mail.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
How do they do that? Didn't the Supreme Court already
decide this? Well?
Speaker 3 (29:17):
What happened is the Supreme Court threw it out because
they said the people who were suing had no standing.
Oh okay, which means they never got into the merits
of any of the claims. Now to the state, the
States are going to make a case that they have standing,
and then you're going to have to deal with what
we want you to look at.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
We'll see how that.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
Of course, you know, they started with the most reliably
maga level conservative federal judge in the country. They went
right to that guy, Matthew Kasmeric, who you can count
on him to rule your way, which doesn't necessarily mean
anything as the case moves through the appeals process. Oh,
we brought out the big guns literally.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Indeed we did.
Speaker 6 (30:03):
The United States carried out a round of strikes and
Yemen against the I ran back to Hoothy's just yesterday
evening and they brought out the B two bombers, stealth
bombers coming out hitting facilities housed these military targets. These
(30:24):
were some of the weapons that were used to target
military and civilian vessels in the Red Sea and the
Gulf of Aiden.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
And they hit hard, hit fast, hit heavy well.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Because the Hoothis have been a real pain in the
you know what, over there targeting commercial ships like that.
It's not even that they're engaging in war against other
military entities. You know, they're shooting. They're shooting at commercial
ships and stuff, and so the US has said, we
don't really want that happening. Up until now, they have
(31:00):
not used the Bee Too, which is a much bigger
jet than what they've been using. And guess what that means, bigger,
heavier bombs. Hoo, hooty, goodbye, don't cry. Oh that reminds
me of that band that we've dropped these big bombs
(31:21):
over there, hooty and the blow.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Ups and thank you.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
And gives me the big grin that I so dist
Thank you, Anne.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
The rest of you could go eat a worm.
Speaker 6 (31:41):
I hope mayonnaise goes up when you walk into the Kroger.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
What if they did go what if they did that?
Speaker 7 (31:47):
They went, oh, you've had a little too much mayo,
and we're going to double the price for you.
Speaker 6 (31:52):
Oh yeah, they put veggies on sale when I walk in,
all salad.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Anybody trying to encourage you great the digital price tags
like your mom.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
Now it's fat shamed at the ground my mom. I
met my mom too. I was that was not a
your mom joke.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
Neil, This is KFI AM six forty Live everywhere on

Catch My Show Monday through Friday, six am to nine am,
and anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from kf I
Am six forty. My ladies and gentlemen, here's Wayne Resnick.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
I Am six forty live everywhere in the iHeartRadio WAP.
Good morning, it's the Bill Handle Show.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
He is back from vacation on Monday. Before we get
to anything else, Now, this might not work, but I
hope it works because it is a very special day
here on the Bill Handle Show. Let's see if I
can show you why. Oh no, that's not the right.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Hold on. Let me see if I can show you why.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Part twoday, we'll say here it's a birthday.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Happy birthday to our own Coono, the technical director of
the Bill Handle Show.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
How many years young are you? Tomorrow?
Speaker 5 (01:31):
I will be thirty six. Wait, I'm just not here
tomorrow tomorrow. So they're celebrating me today because I'm not here.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Yeah, he's ditching us for his birthday. What are you seven?
Take off work for your birthday?
Speaker 5 (01:46):
Well, not taking off work for my birthday. It just
happened to land on my birthday that I'm taking off work.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Oh yes, yeah, And if I see you at the
Chuck E Cheese, I'm off tomorrow too. I'm going with.
Speaker 5 (02:00):
Oh my check is going to celebrate. It's okay, it's
not bad. Well, I listen, it's fine.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
It's probably I probably would not have gone to the
trouble that it took. I appreciate to be able to
play audio from where I'm sitting and to find a
fun little song. And I probably wouldn't have done anything
if I had known that. It is not technically your birthday,
but happy birthday to you. Hold onto that happy birthday greeting.
(02:28):
Hold on to it. It's not active. It's like a
post dated check. Okay, it's not active until tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Got it. I'm all right now. It is not Ann's birthday.
But good morning to you. Good morning. Do you care
to share why you will not be with us tomorrow
or would you rather keep some semblance of a private life.
I'll keep you all guessing, all right.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Fair enough, Neil Savedri, you have no private life. No,
everybody knows everything you do all the time.
Speaker 6 (03:00):
Yes, I like it that way. I'm a man of
the people. Give them what they want and they take you.
You are definitely a man of the people. How are you, sir,
I'm I'm well, fighting a little cold or something other
than Oh.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Okay, Oh you better not miss tomorrow. It's foody Friday tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Oh, yes it is. It might be not screw me
over on a foody Friday. Oh that's the worst.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Screw me over on a foody Friday once, shame on you,
same thing twice. Won't get fooled again. That's right, Amo King. Oh,
Amy King, good morning, Good morning. We have a story, Ah,
you can handle on the news coming up that I
think is of exceptional interest to you. Yes, and when
(03:48):
people will know when that story arrives. Okay, I say,
let's begin handle on the news, Nil Sevadra, Amy King.
I'm Wayne Resnick in for Bill and this is the
big bucks lead story. The Archdiocese of Los Angeles has
agreed to pay a lot of money. I'm purposefully withholding
(04:12):
the amount for surprise, but a lot of money in
a settlement with thirteen hundred and fifty three victims saying
they suffered horrific abuse at the hands of local Catholic priests.
This is after months of negotiations, and this puts to
bed apparently twenty five years of various similar litigation against
(04:38):
the la Archdiocese. The amount of the settlement eight hundred
and eighty million dollars. There will be a process by
which the plaintiffs all decide how it gets distributed amongst
the victims. The archdiocese has nothing to say about who
individually gets what. They just said, here's eight hundred and
eighty million dollars. Is that enough if you figure out
(05:01):
who gets how much? Here's the thing, because I saw
the headline and I thought, wow, that's an unbelievably huge settlement.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
There must have been a lot of abuse.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
But guess what, that's not even almost half the story
because they previously did a settlement of seven hundred and
forty million dollars to a whole different set of victims.
So they have paid out now or will have paid
out once they make good on this over a billion
(05:33):
and a half bucks.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Instead of getting rid of priests who molest kids, they
will be paying a billion and a half. I also, though,
suspect that this is not really going to cause major hardship.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
I don't think they're.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Meeting at the la Archdiocese right now and they're going, uugh,
we we could only keep one HBO or Hulu, which
can we keep?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
That discussion is not happening.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
A discussion that happens in many homes of many good
people who never molested anybody.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
So that's just going on there.
Speaker 6 (06:10):
We're at the Vatican going which painting do we sell?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
That's pretty much which ancient secret jewel? Yeah, that's horrible.
Speaker 6 (06:24):
And the hard working people that put their money in
those baskets.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
And that's a settlement. And I say that because that's
not They went to trial and a jury said, oh
my god, this is so bad. We're going to really
soak you. That's the amount they agreed.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
To pay. Mm mmmm oh. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
That big rally happened yesterday in front of the courthouse downtown.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
Amy tell us what it was about. Well, the big
question is are the brothers going to get a break?
Relatives of Lyle and Eric Menendez gathered downtown to make
impact please for their release from prison. The brothers have
served more than thirty years in prison. The La La
County District Attorney Gascone is weighing new evidence in the murders.
(07:13):
More than two dozen family members participated. They are asking
to either either have the murder convictions thrown out or
hold a new trial or re sentence them in light
of the new evidence, which is that they were horribly
sexually abused by.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
The father who they killed to tell the people what
they did.
Speaker 7 (07:33):
They killed their parents in nineteen eighty nine right with
a with shotguns and apparently then after shooting them, reloaded
and it was jose and Kitty Menendez. They were shot
in their home in Beverly Hills, and the guides never
denied that they killed them, but they said that they
did it in self defense after suffering years of physical
(07:54):
and sexual abuse.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
In the first trial, they were allowed to present that information.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
The jury hung.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
In the second trial, the judge decided not to allow
them to present that information and they were convicted. And
then they had all every time they went on appeal,
they lost. By the way back at the time they
went to every appeal.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Lose, lose, lose, lose.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
Here we are now, all these years later, and there's
some new evidence about the abuse, and this is why
they want to reopen the home thing, the whole thing.
Michael Monks was there from KFI News and he will
join us at seven and give us a recap and
depending on if there's time left after the recap, I
do have something to say about that rally yesterday and
it's not going to be well received.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I don't think I have.
Speaker 6 (08:42):
A question for you Wayne, with the way the courts
work and all of that, since both of his parents,
both of their parents rather are now deceased, even at
their own hand, do they get any of the money
from the like, do they have money even though they're
(09:02):
in prison? Will they come out to the money that
their parents made or inheritance or any of that.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
You know what, that is a really good question, and
I don't have an answer for you. That is something
to ponder because if because the whole point here is
for them to get out, and you're right, and they
will come out, and what will they re well all
the other family in terms of will they have resources, obviously,
I assume all those family members that were at the
(09:32):
rally yesterday would help them out.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
As to the.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Other the kind of possibly nauseating moral implications of coming
out and getting all your parents' money, maybe, which is
the moment they were accused of in the first place.
They were accused of killing them for greed. Yeah, that's
kind of because they went on shopping sprees apparently right
after they killed them. But no, I don't know the
(09:55):
specific answer. I mean if you if you have a
will and your kids are in your will and then
they murder you. I don't know what provision of law
kicks in that says, sorry, you can't have what the
will says.
Speaker 6 (10:09):
The murder clause? Yoho, yoho. A Premier pass for me?
I want to skip as many Disneyland attraction lines as possible. Okay,
what are you willing to pay for it? So Disneyland
Resort will now have a new line skipping option called
Lightning Lane Premiere Pass, and it will cost four hundred
(10:33):
bucks per person. That's in addition to your ticket cost.
And if you want the whole shebang, it's got to
be with your park hopper too, because you want to
enjoy all the Lightning Lane.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Rides, of which there are how many I'm.
Speaker 6 (10:49):
Trying to think, what like twenty twenty four Lightning Lane rides?
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Four hundred dollars to skip the line? Wants to ride
twenty four of the many attractions between Disneyland and California
Adventure on top of the regular admission.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
By the way, you still have to buy the regular ticket.
And this is not a it's not a season pass,
it's not a long term pass.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
It's literally just that day that you're there for four
hundred dollars, you can skip the line twenty four times
once paride.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
You're kind of it's a little reductionistic because you're leaving
out the fact that you also get to feel superior
to everybody else. So it's not just the line hopping,
it's the oh sorry, I'm going in front of you,
which I.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
Think you go in front of even the lightning lane people. Yeah,
I mean how you'll go right to the front.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
How much is.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
That worthwaye that feeling of superiority, yes, being a part
of late stage capitalism that combines profit driven motive with elitism.
How much is it worthway? Did you ask me how
much is it worth? Or how much does it feel? Well? Well,
the feeling is what's got the value here. You asked
me how much the feeling is worth? What would you
(12:04):
pay to pass everybody up and make it feed?
Speaker 2 (12:09):
No? I mean, I just I don't. I would not go.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
I don't know what it would take to get me
to Disneyland ever again, oh my, at this point.
Speaker 6 (12:15):
I'm going, I don't. I wouldn't pay this. I don't
have any need. The line is part of the find
if you don't.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
You know, if you don't pay, you spend all day
in line.
Speaker 7 (12:26):
If you pay, excuse me, no you don't.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Oh, here we go, all right? Hold on, if Neil
and me.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Let Amy King have an absolutely uninterrupted thirty seconds here
to speak her mind, go listen.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
I don't think this is a great idea.
Speaker 7 (12:44):
I think it's it's excessive, and it is it's just
for rich people, and I don't agree with this.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
But you can do the.
Speaker 7 (12:51):
Lines and not spend the whole day. You just have
to watch and be careful and pick your day. And
like Neil said, it's part of the experience. And if
you want to spend the thirty or thirty five dollars
and get the fast pass or the lightning pass or
whatever the heck they're calling it these days, you can
do that if you want to spend a little less
time in the lines, but it's it is part of
(13:12):
the experience, and you don't spend the whole day in lines.
I think that you you could, but not if you're
smart about it.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
You're referring to the Lightning Lane multi pass add on,
which is only thirty two dollars, and what it allows
you to do is schedule a time later to come back.
This just seems like there's so much logistical overhead now
to go to Disneyland.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Yeah, that great.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
I mean everybody should see Disneyland or disney World once,
certainly maybe two three times over the course of your life.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Yes, but like on a regular basis, is it really
that great? Yale? Is it worth this? I don't think
it's worth four hundred dollars.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
If that's your thing, or you're doing it like let's
say you were sellinglebrating in Kno's birthday, and I'm not
saying that you go with Kno. I'm saying you're celebrating
it in spirit and people you like, and you do
that and it's it's nice. But the lines, now, the
queues are part of the ride. And I happen to
really enjoy talking to my wife, so it's like a
(14:18):
long car ride.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
You just connect, talk to me, stay home and talk
to her for free. But we do that.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
There's something magical about Disneyland. Though we like just walking around.
There's sometimes we won't go, and the passes afford you this,
you're not going, you know. I feel for people to
just go once a year that feel like they have
to cram everything in.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Yeah, that sucks.
Speaker 6 (14:38):
But if you have a pass, you can just go
and have dinner there or walk around or you know,
listen to the music or watch the fireworks or whatever.
Speaker 7 (14:48):
There's a lot to do besides just the rides. Yeah,
I agree, But I think Neil you said it very well.
The pass affords you that where you can just go
walk around. But I think Disneyland's a magical place. It's
not for everybody.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
I get it.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
That's fine. They're trying to make it so it's not
for almost anybody. No, it's gonna be all it's gonna
be all Lamborghinis in the Mickey lot.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Ooh, it'll be all Lamborghinis. Yeah, that'd be fun.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
Yeah, you're gonna actually you're gonna actually have to pay
for registration for the cars, probably license and registration and
all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
And then some guy will detail it for you. Yeah.
All right.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Let's talk about Kamala Harris. She went on Fox News
and was interviewed by Brett Baer and he, you know,
he I don't think he was out of line at all,
but he he was tough and he was firm, and
he asked some tough questions, and I thought she did
perfectly well. I think, to me, the interesting angle here
is what does this say about the thinking of the
(15:54):
Harris Walls campaign. And they're thinking, as obviously, there are
some Republicans who normally would vote Republican but could be
swayed this time to not vote Republican because of who
the Republican candidate is. So go on Fox News and
see if you can get somebody in the red rover
come over. And you're also seeing it in their campaign
(16:17):
stops where she's showing up with Liz Cheney, she's showing
up with people who worked in the Trump administration, other
Republicans who split from Trump. This is now their their
focus because they don't have to convince almost any Democrat.
They have to convince the Republicans who aren't sure what
(16:37):
they should do.
Speaker 7 (16:39):
Well, Jimmy Carter can now go in peace if he
still chooses. Jimmy Carter, former president, just turned one hundred
and has now fulfilled an end of life goal of
voting for Vice President Kamala Harris. His son said, they
did the vote. It was a good morning for him
and good for us that he got it done.
Speaker 6 (17:01):
Very nice, nice, I think he installed solar powers on
his head. That's the only well, that's the only reason
why he's still alive.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
He is fully solar now, or.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
He lived or he lived a clean life and a
good life doing good works.
Speaker 6 (17:22):
Made a lot of peanuts, I say, solar all right,
vote overseas voters now. So there's this ballot process, been
around for a long time.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Both parties love it.
Speaker 6 (17:36):
It has its connection here to the US military because
when they are abroad or they're out of the country
that they can still be a part of the election. Well,
now you've got Donald Trump suggesting, and some say without
any evidence, that the overseas vote is a source of fraud.
(17:57):
And there's about sixty or six point five million eligible
American voters living or serving and studying overseas.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
So three states have filed lawsuits and what they want,
basically is to segregate all of those overseas ballots. Why
would you specially segregate a certain subgroup of ballots to
scrutinize them within an inch of your life and depending
on how the election goes to perhaps declare that they
(18:31):
should be thrown out. And this which is us enfranchising
the people who are serving in our military across the world.
Speaker 6 (18:39):
It seems that maybe at one time that might have
been more of a conservative group of people, but now
there is evidence that no, it's the group that votes
abroad tends to be Democrats now and you know, so
that's gonna be right.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Years years ago, Republicans would never have dreamed to try
to to try to invalidate the overseas ballots. But the
times have changed, and so of the dirty tactics. Liam Payne,
former member of boyband One Direction, has died. He fell
out of a window or did in Buenos excuse me?
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Or did he? Oh? Stop it?
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Well you think somebody pushed him out of a window.
Speaker 6 (19:29):
There are We're still jumped.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Oh oh oh, I see what you're getting at.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
There's accounts of him that he might have been high
and that he was destroying his room. I know an
hour before he the incident, he did post something online
on Snapchat or something.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
I saw it. It didn't look like he was under
duress or anything. But what you know, the.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Weird thing about this is so he he even if
he jumped, he still fell correct.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Okay, so we found out of the window.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
Yeah, Well, here, I'm trying trying to get to Amy's point.
I think primarily so he fell out of the window
and he's dead, and the cops come, and then the
cops make a statement. They never mention him. They don't
say we're talking about him. They just say, oh, so happens.
(20:23):
We went to the hotel because we got a call
that there was an aggressive man, possibly under the influence.
Now why say that if you're not gonna say Liam
Payne was that man? He the call was either about
him or it was not about him. If it was
not about him, you don't have to say anything. And
(20:45):
if it was about him, if you're gonna say something,
shouldn't you tell us who you're talking about. So I
don't know why they did it that way, unless it's like, hey,
we were called for a guy who is maybe under
the influence and acting radically wink wink.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Well maybe they didn't know who he was.
Speaker 6 (21:04):
They weren't called for him, They were called for some
guy who later turned out to be No, but.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
They would they would know it was the guy who
jumped or fell out of the window, whether whether they
knew his identity or not. Don't you be an apologist
for the Buenos Aires PD Neil.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
I'm just concerned that they're not here to defend themselves.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
They'll be fine. New rules, no way.
Speaker 7 (21:32):
Judge and Georgia has declared that seven new election rules
recently passed by the state election board are illegal, unconstitutional,
and void. The rules invalidated by the judge include one
that requires the number of ballots to be hand counted
after the close the polls closed, and two that have
to do with certifying the election results.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
They tried a lot that state election board run by
Republican and this judge said no to virtually all of it.
And I like, what did you say? Can say the
part again about what he declared those laws to.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Be illegal, unconstitutional, and void.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
So what do these election laws that were overturned have
in common with showman Nathan Lane?
Speaker 2 (22:25):
They're both triple threats?
Speaker 6 (22:27):
Oh wow, wow.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
I mean anyway, he really the judge really went to
town because if they're uncon because this is Russian nesting
dolls of legal status. If you're unconstitutional, then by default
you're illegal and void. You see what I'm saying, Like
he could have just said they're unconstitutional, but he really
wanted to hit.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
All.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
He wanted to really beat him up.
Speaker 6 (22:56):
It's like a preacher that says everything three times, God
will come down and heal you, take away your.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Pain, bare your cross. Yes, it's like exactly what it's like.
I got it. Speaking of a godlike figure.
Speaker 6 (23:12):
Oh boy, well triple threat all right, Elon Musk tech mogul.
Maybe you've heard of him. World's richest person, kind of
a guy you might know. Apparently put more than seventy
million into helping Donald Trump and other Republicans win November's election,
(23:32):
making him the biggest donor to the GOP causes in
this campaign season. This particular pack is called America Pack,
and that, of course is one of those super political
action committees. And I remember, you know, he says American
Pack is aiming for common sense, centrist values. That's up
(23:53):
to you, I suppose, But I remember when they were
originally saying that he was going to give forty million
dollars a month or something. So I don't know where
this number comes from and all of that, but yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
These the ability of some of these people to be
so impossibly two face. They should be in the DC
Comics universe with how two face they are. Jd Vance,
who was talking the smackiest smack about Donald Trump and
is now his running mate Eon Musk, who used to
talk about he couldn't wait for Donald Trump to go away,
(24:29):
and is now spending a bunch of money to help
him be the president.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Again. Odd, isn't it. It's not odd, it's money.
Speaker 7 (24:39):
Oh, I bet he'd buy those four hundred dollars Premier
Lightning line passes.
Speaker 6 (24:42):
Who elon Musk only for Trump and Trump doesn't even
need him.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
There's a new technology coming to a supermarket near you
that many people are saying is evil. It's called ESL,
or Electronic shelving labels. They're basically digital price tags, and many,
including some people in Congress, are saying this is going
to lead to dynamic pricing of your groceries and discriminatory
(25:12):
price gouging because these digital tags also have facial recognition,
so you walk up to the mayonnaise and it can
see your face and it can change the price if
it wants to. Now, these are coming to Kroger now,
so that would mean rouse probably. I don't know if
(25:34):
Kroger trickles down all of their ideas to all of
their subsidiary names, but around here that would be a rouse.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
For example, they say.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
What it allows them to do is, let's say they
put something on sale.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
They don't have to send a guy around to do it.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
They can just go, oh, the mayonnaise is now fifty
cents off.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Boom, now it's on the tag. See.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
It's just like when Wendy's was taught about their digital
menu signs and and dynamic pricing. I don't think they
ever said dynamic pricing, and Kroger is not saying the
phrase dynamic pricing, and people, well it went crazy and
Wendy's Wendy said, we would never use it to raise
the price of anything. It allows us to push deals
(26:20):
through immediately. And I'm I'm hoping that's Kroger's idea as well.
Dynamic pricing only in the sense that maybe there's something
we want to really highlight, or maybe we have.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
Too much and we want to facial facial recognition part, well.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
That's the part I don't unless it's going to be
tied into your loyalty account and they'll know it's you.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
And they'll know if you've bought it before.
Speaker 7 (26:47):
Like when I go to my Pavilions app, it says,
here's items that you like and have bought before, and
then they show me if there's if they're on special,
so maybe it'll go bring that one's on.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Sale, or maybe they make it on just for you
as a perk.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
Right now, this is us ascribing only the best intentions here.
I'm not naive at all. And you know, Cono, the
bump you played coming in is not about the money.
I believe it's absolutely about the money. But I'm not
sure that even a big corporation as greedy as they are,
(27:22):
I'm not sure they would put a system in place
to say, oh, there's a black shopper, raise the price
of the cereal.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
So I'll have to see it when it rolls out.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
I guess when it rolls out, we'll see what it
does and how it works. And hey, public sentiment shut
down Wendy's plan, So if this is actually bad in
any way, public sentiment I assume will shut it down.
Speaker 7 (27:48):
So at this point, though, Wayne, if I'm understanding, they're
Kruger's not doing this. They're not doing price gouging. The
lawmakers are basically wanting to pass a preemptive law.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Yes, the lawmakers like Rashida Khalieb, they're assuming the worst.
We trying here to assume the best. She and other
lawmakers they're assuming the worst. And this is where we
are with technology. Every time there's a new technology there
And I'm not even criticizing these people.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
I'm just saying, there's a.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Group of people who immediately look at what's the worst
thing they could do with it? What's the most evil
thing that could be done with this technology. Probably should
be grateful to them for, you know, pointing out the
possible caveats.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
But I don't want to amy. I don't want to
be a pill about it. Oh okay.
Speaker 7 (28:44):
Three states are pushing the envelope when it comes to pills.
Four months after the Supreme Court tossed out a high
profile challenge to the abortion drug mif at pristone, Missouri, Kansas,
and Idaho have filed in an amended lawsuit in federal
court in Texas a US District judge to roll back
the efforts of the FDA over the past eight years
(29:08):
to ease access to the drug, things like allowing it
to be dispensed through the mail.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
How do they do that? Didn't the Supreme Court already
decide this? Well?
Speaker 3 (29:17):
What happened is the Supreme Court threw it out because
they said the people who were suing had no standing.
Oh okay, which means they never got into the merits
of any of the claims. Now to the state, the
States are going to make a case that they have standing,
and then you're going to have to deal with what
we want you to look at.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
We'll see how that.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
Of course, you know, they started with the most reliably
maga level conservative federal judge in the country. They went
right to that guy, Matthew Kasmeric, who you can count
on him to rule your way, which doesn't necessarily mean
anything as the case moves through the appeals process. Oh,
we brought out the big guns literally.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Indeed we did.
Speaker 6 (30:03):
The United States carried out a round of strikes and
Yemen against the I ran back to Hoothy's just yesterday
evening and they brought out the B two bombers, stealth
bombers coming out hitting facilities housed these military targets. These
(30:24):
were some of the weapons that were used to target
military and civilian vessels in the Red Sea and the
Gulf of Aiden.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
And they hit hard, hit fast, hit heavy well.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Because the Hoothis have been a real pain in the
you know what, over there targeting commercial ships like that.
It's not even that they're engaging in war against other
military entities. You know, they're shooting. They're shooting at commercial
ships and stuff, and so the US has said, we
don't really want that happening. Up until now, they have
(31:00):
not used the Bee Too, which is a much bigger
jet than what they've been using. And guess what that means, bigger,
heavier bombs. Hoo, hooty, goodbye, don't cry. Oh that reminds
me of that band that we've dropped these big bombs
(31:21):
over there, hooty and the blow.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Ups and thank you.
Speaker 3 (31:30):
And gives me the big grin that I so dist
Thank you, Anne.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
The rest of you could go eat a worm.
Speaker 6 (31:41):
I hope mayonnaise goes up when you walk into the Kroger.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
What if they did go what if they did that?
Speaker 7 (31:47):
They went, oh, you've had a little too much mayo,
and we're going to double the price for you.
Speaker 6 (31:52):
Oh yeah, they put veggies on sale when I walk in,
all salad.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Anybody trying to encourage you great the digital price tags
like your mom.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
Now it's fat shamed at the ground my mom. I
met my mom too. I was that was not a
your mom joke.
