You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
And now Handle on the news. Ladies and gentlemen, here's
not Bill Handle.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Ah good Chaco Tuesday. You know, Latinos don't say that
it's like Black lives matter. You don't find those signs
on black people's houses because they know, seriously, go to
white neighborhoods.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
That's where you see those.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Oh we love them. Yeah, they're great. Here's a sign.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
KFI AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Neil Sevader in the Morning crew with you Handles on vacation.
We think, we don't know, he may pop on randomly.
No more ambient for that guy, especially when he's out
of town. We don't know what time it is.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Anywhere.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Happy to be with you today and with you throughout
the rest of the week. Did you hear Amy King?
She and I are going over the edge of the
Hilton in Universal City. Seriously, come on, well, you're better
than that. And we're doing it for a great cause,
Union Rescue Mission. If you want to support with a donation,
(01:33):
we'd love that. If you want to jump with us,
that's a thousand dollars donation, but anything helps to either
Amy or myself or me or I I don't know.
My mom will call him correctly, correct me shortly. Yourem
dot org slash ote over the edge, and we appreciate
in advance anything that you gift. You guys really did
(01:57):
a great job last year. We always are thrilled to
talk about how great KFI listeners are and you guys
are incredibly generous. If you wonder why somebody like me
complains that complains about the homeless situation is supporting a homeless.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Charity, it's because they do it right. It's a dry house.
You have to be sober, all those things.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Yes, Amy, I was just going to say, we just
had the CEO of Union Rescue Mission, Mark Hood on
with us. Great guy, by the way, great guy, and
he does such a great job explaining what they do
with the money and how they actually help people get
off the streets.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
They don't just throw money at it.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
They're not just saying here's a meal and here's a
place to stay for a week. They like, you know,
help them. They give them counseling, and they give them training,
and they help them find a job, and they get
them sober and make the transition. You know, it's because
it's hard to come off the streets and go back
into like regular society or whatever you want to call it.
Marked us such a great job explaining that. You can
(02:59):
listen to it. It was just played on wake Up
Call and you can listen anytime on the iHeartRadio app
if you want to go back and revisit that.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Good folks, good organization. They are one of my since
we met them last year, they became one of my
monthly donations because I really respect what they're doing. I've
put my money in this as well. I am not
asking you to do something that I don't do myself.
And then we're going over the building and repelling down
two hundred and fifty feet or so, just to bring
(03:28):
attention to the cause. So that's a good morning to
Amy King, Good morning to you.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Kno, Good morning, Neil. How you doing, Pale? I'm pretty good.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Life's all right, life's great. And Will good morning. How
are you sir?
Speaker 2 (03:41):
I'm hanging in there. I'm good. Yeah. You seem like
you got energy shopping around today. Good. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
I'm going to try and scare you sometime today. Haven't
done that in a while. Sneak it up on Will's
a treat, He responds, wonderfully.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Nan is really good at it for some reason, and
she doesn't mean to be. But she scares a bit
because she's small like a cat. That's it.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Yeah, And Matthew, I know, buddy, get on that mic.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Yes, dely struggle here, Hi, Matt here, happy to be here,
produce me, good to be here. Thanks.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Matt's in for Anne, who should be back on Thursday,
I believe. And Bilin de leone on Channel four looking
rather delightful and green today.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
That's all I'm saying. I don't know. I just love her.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
I think she is adorable and beautiful. And I don't know,
I'm a big Berlin Dela de Leon. Yeah, that's uh fan.
Let's get started with handle on the news lead story.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
All right.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
So yesterday Disney, the parent company of ABC Television network
you know this by now, they announced that Jimmy Kimmel
late night host would resume taping new up episodes of
Jimmy kim Alive Today, less than a week actually after
it was pulled off the air for comments related to
the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. So they came
(05:12):
out and they said last Wednesday, we made the decision,
this is their words, to suspend production on the show
to avoid further inflaming a tense situation and an emotional
moment in our country. It is a decision we made
because we felt some of the comments were ill timed
(05:33):
and thus insensitive. The statement continued, we have spent the
last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations,
we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday.
So here's a couple of things to think about.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
One.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
I didn't think that the comments were fireworthy. Maybe a
suspension the indefinitely the indefinite part probably shouldn't have been said.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
But this is what stirred things up.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, who's an appointee of President Trump,
called Kimmel's comments truly sick and threatened regulatory action against
broadcasters who carried the comedian's program.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
That's where you lose me.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
That's where For one, it's different than Roseanne bar because
what Roseanne Barr said was racist.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
But as far as Cara Doon.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
And Gina Gosh carrato that I likened it too. I
think she got a raw deal, but she sued and
she won. However, like I said before, canceling somebody by
way of culture is one thing, and I hate that too,
(07:00):
But when you do it via the government, that is censorship,
and that's a whole different thing to me. So Sinclair
said they are going to preempt Jimmy kimmelive, They're still
not going to play it, and I think Next Star
has not announced whether they're going to play the show
or not. And if you're talking about two hundred and fifty,
(07:21):
if he's got an audience of about a million nationwide
and you have two one hundred and fifty affiliates, let's
just say two thousand people each affiliate is watching, that's
not very many. That's half your audience. That's half your audience.
So we'll see how this continues on. But that is
(07:42):
the update. We'll obviously talk about this a little bit later.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Don't take your title and all that is the urging
of the president, at least if you're pregnant. President Trump
announced that the FDA believes the use of a set
of MENEF and of course that's the active and ingredient
in til all, and a lot of cold and flu
medications during pregnancy can be associated with an increased risk
of autism. This was the announcement that he teased during
(08:08):
the Charlie Cook Memorial on Sunday. He said, effective immediately,
the FDA will notify positions that the use of a
set of metaphine during pregnancy can be associated with a
very increased risk of autism. And then he went on
and basically said, don't take it, ladies, power through it
(08:28):
unless it's medically necessary. But he basically urged pregnant women
not to take tailanol. And then he got off topic
as he has wont to do and talked about childhood
vaccinations and he said vaccine should be given in smaller
doses and spread out over a period of years. And
then he said, you know, I'm just making these statements
(08:49):
from me.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
I'm not making them from these doctors.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
What do you know why he keeps saying all which
is the name brand? Why you can't say a set
of minifin? Well, obviously I couldn't say it either, so well,
I don't know how the pronounce he is, but but yeah,
but that's why he tried like three times, couldn't get
it out.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
And oh, he did, I didn't see, so then he
just goes.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Til at all.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
But it's Uh, the studies that I've looked at because
I was curious about this.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Really say the opposite.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
The studies that I've seen say they do not have
enough information and they've done massive, large studies on this.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
There are studies that suggest there's a link. There's studies
that suggest there's not a link. But there are studies
on both sides.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Yes, but the studies, the vast majority of what's out
there contradicts this.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
It doesn't stand alongside it.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
So I wonder where they got this link because rfk Jr.
Says the FDA based its decision on a cedam nfin
on clinical and laboratory studies that suggest a potential association
between a cedamnfin use during pregnancy and adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Yeah, and doctors have applied with no the vast majority
of our studies that are out there, and some of them,
I think we're two million people, you know, not tiny tiny.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
So we'll see how this goes.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
And that's why he says is this is not from doctrine.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
No, that's from the vaccination.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
Comments about spreading off vaccine from doctrine.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
This is for me.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
President did not stay from doctor. Listen, he can step
in it enough. You don't need your help.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Well just I don't know. Makes me nervous when they
start going towards like skiance. That's the weird stuff, all right.
Trump addressing the UN. He will address the United Nations
General Assembly today. And there's a lot going on. You've
got a strain with US allies over Palestinian statehood. That's
(11:07):
going to be a big deal. You've got trade issues,
massive flashpoints across the board. So, and Trump's not a
huge fan of the UN. So she.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
So.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Press Secretary White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt says that
as far as a tiny little preview of the remarks
that will happen today, says that Trump will highlight the
renewal of American strength around the world.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Hey, hey, un you want to know where the beach is?
I think it's that way, or maybe it's that way.
Anybody got band aids? I think them cut? No? Maybe law?
Speaker 3 (11:55):
What law?
Speaker 4 (11:57):
The Department of Homeland Security says it is not going
to comply with a new law in California just signed
by the governor over the weekend that ban's most law
enforcement officers, including ICE agents, from wearing face coverings while
they're doing official business on x DHS posted to be clear,
we will not comply with Governor Newsom's unconstitutional mask ban.
(12:21):
At a time that ICE law enforcement faces a one
thousand percent increase in assaults and their family members are
being docked and targeted, the city governor of California signed
unconstitutional legislation that strips law enforcement of protections in a disgusting,
diabolical fundraising and PR stunt. They said they're not going
to do it.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Wow, this just in a mall.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Cop says the LAPD will not be allowed in two malls.
So that's gonna You know what I would do. I
would get every face mask printed with printed with Nusom's
face on it, so when they come in and ICE
(13:05):
comes in, they're all coming in with a mask covering
their face that looks like Newsome.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
And then nobody would even notice that they were wearing
them because they were so good.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Or take off all the masks, but everybody, just all
the ICE agents should be in Newsome like hair and
that nowhere suits.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
It'll be interesting to see what happens with this because again,
if federal law supersedes.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
S, I mean, what are gonna tackle them?
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Yeah, you're gonna have Sorry.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Bro Newsom says they got to do this. Not gonna happen.
Not gonna happen. They ignore, uh, you know, national laws constantly.
I mean, even if you look at so called sanctuary
city stuff. Come on, all right to major hurricane Gabrielle
(14:01):
is brushing up against Bermuda. So, uh, we're worried about
the threats obviously in the US and the impact that
it's going to have. So hopefully it's going to steadily
lose that tropical status, and but after that, we don't
know if it's going to go down, if it's going
to go up.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
Well here's something, Uh, the hurricane after it goes by
Bermuda could pass over the Azores. I've never heard of
this islands. Apparently it's an island chain. I've never heard
of this is that?
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Like I thought that was a land in Zelda.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Where is.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Azores? A z O r e s someone screaming right
now at the radio. I thought it was Azores. Oh
that's it.
Speaker 4 (14:54):
There are Portuguese are Okay archipelago that No. Nine volcanic Eyland.
It's located in the North Atlantic, fifteen hundred kilometers about
almost one thousand miles west of mainland Portugal.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
That's basically pronouncing Loca YadA as La Canada.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Yeah, we're all where the hell is Loch Canada.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Oh I like that though, I like Canada.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Where lock Canada is, it's Lacayada.
Speaker 4 (15:20):
The Azores Azores never heard of those before.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
Just now in my yes, well I'm not well traveled.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Wow, it goes to big bearn Now She's like, yeah,
so anyways, I learned a little big baryon when I
was out there, and uh, you know, it's nice to
get in touch with the culture.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Yeah, yeah, very uh bur bear forward. Already two little.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Drones caused a whole lot of headaches. All right, it
might have been three, but flights at Copenhagen Airport were
diverted or suspended overnight because of drone sightings. Police say
they saw two to three large unidentified drones, forcing ongoing
flights or outgoing flights at Scandinavia's largest airport to be
(16:10):
grounded and others had to be sent to other airports.
And then there was another drone incident at the Oslo
Norway Airport that forced all traffic to move over to
run to one runway. Traffic later returned to normal. Not
clear who was responsible for the drones, but police chose
(16:31):
not to shoot the drones out of the sky because
of the risk posed by their location near the airport,
which was full of passengers and the planes on the
runways and fuel depots and that kind of stuff.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
So they said, we're not going to shoot them down.
But they don't know who's behind them.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
You know they Uh.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
I thought, don't you have to have drones registered and
have a tail number?
Speaker 3 (16:54):
I mean, I don't know there, but maybe they don't
have to.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
In My drone has a tail number. I don't throw
it up very often anymore, but it's got a tail
number registered, all right?
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Amazon.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
I heard Amy King talking about this on wake up
Call this morning about Amazon facing court hearings. This is
going to take place in Seattle this week. The allegations
are by a federal regulator that the e commerce giant
kind of messing with customers, saying tricking them their terms,
kind of not mine into signing up for their prime membership,
(17:31):
but making it difficult for them to cancel their subscription,
which I can't stand and I hate that that was
reversed by Trump, that we were going there, But it
was like the only thing Biden did.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
That I liked that.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
I was like, all right, that he was going to
make it easier for people to opt out of things.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
Yeah, this thing they were saying, it takes like pages
and pages and fifteen different prompts and that kind of
stuff to actually get the cancelation.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
It's so frustrating. It should need I thought, it's a
no brainer. And this is why I don't like the
partisanship of if this person likes it, then I hate
it that kind of thing, because it was a no brainer.
It should be as easy to opt out as it
is to get in.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Agreed.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
You know, that's just that hurts nobody except the company.
I get it, but you're for the people, and I
hate that.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Now. I love Prime.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
And I will probably never have a need to cancel
it because I like having that service. But still it
should be simple to get out of it if you want.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Agreed?
Speaker 4 (18:46):
Does President Trump get to say his favorite thing, You're fired?
Going to be up to the Supreme Court, the highest
court in the land, will be revisiting a nearly century
old ruling that protects the heads of independent agencies. President
Trump has repeatedly challenged this rule. The Court says it
(19:06):
will agree to take up the issue before the lower
courts have finished weighing in, so they're going to bypass them,
take it all the way to the top, and they'll
hear arguments in December. The Court also said that Trump
could remove for now Rebecca Slaughter. She was the last
Democrat on the Federal Trade Commission, so she can be out,
and then the High Court will review whether he has
(19:27):
the power to do that as president.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
All right, Seawan Didty Combs that we haven't heard about
or from him in some time.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Combs.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
The lawyers for Seawan Didty Combs urged New York federal
judge just yesterday to sentence him early next month to
no more than fourteen months in prison for his conviction
on those two prostitution related charges, by the way, meaning
that he'd go free almost immediately if the judge agreed,
because he's done so much time already and he's been
(20:00):
under constant suicide watch, which why would you be under
suicide watch if you already knew you know, he got
the most lenient sentence.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
He could for what he was charged with.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
So his actual sentencing fate will be on October third,
But I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
I thought he got off pretty easy with that.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
All right, Well, there could be some fireworks here. President
Trump is expected to meet with House Minority Leader Hakem
Jeffries and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer this week. They're
going to be talking about funding the government, because if
they don't come up with a funding plan and get
it passed, the government shuts down October first. But apparently
(20:47):
she and I heard Schumer earlier this week saying, I
demand a meeting with the president. Apparently it's going to happen.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Well, he demanded it.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
I'm sure that's why Trump's going to do it.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
He goes, okay, so five hundred million bucks was frozen.
You remember that UCLA medical research grants. Trump said, not,
you're not getting them because all the anti semitism that
was going on, which I agree, I was as far
as them being sanctioned or punished or something. It was
(21:19):
horrific to see things that were going on there. You know,
wrong is wrong is wrong. People just pick who they
want to bash when they want to bash them. However,
there's a lot of good medical research coming out of
those grants. So the federal judge ordered Trump to restore
that five hundred million dollars that has been frozen back
(21:40):
into UCLA and their medical research.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
Thirty seven counts of attempted murder, that's how many Fernando
Ramirez if San Clementi is charged with. He's the guy
who is accused of driving his vehicle into a crowd
outside a nightclub in East Hollywood.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
That happened in July.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
That was the one that was shot, right, Yeah, So.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
He pleaded not guilty to thirty seven counts of attempted
murder and thirty seven counts of assault with a deadly weapon,
which prosecutors say was the car. And apparently he got
kicked out of the Vermont Hollywood club on Santa Monica
on July nineteenth, early in the morning, got mad, got
in his car and came and ran down a group
(22:29):
of people.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
What the hell is wrong with people?
Speaker 1 (22:32):
I've never been in a club that I cared about
whether I got kicked out or not.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
I would imagine you've been kicked out of a lot.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
I have been kicked out of a few.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Ye All right, Long time ago, Amen, I don't know
why you bring it up, all right, man, charged wah.
Every time I hear stories like this, I think, did
your dad not own a belt? Chars with shining laser
pointer at Marine one with Trump aboard.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Don't you know?
Speaker 1 (23:06):
I don't care if it's the you know, president or
anybody else. It's bad across the board. But why people
feel the need to shine a laser up at thousands
and thousands, tens of thousands of pounds of machinery flying
above is is asinine. So he was accused of this
(23:28):
presidential helicopter Marine one. President Trump was on board, and
he was arrested, and he'll probably be held up by
you know, the far left as a hero.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
We'll see.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
Squatters did a real number on a home in Santa Monica.
So there's an award winning independent filmmaker and cinematographer who
recently returned to his home in Santa Monica. He had
been away on a job in New York for a
week and a half and he came home and found
his house in tatters. Fidel Ruiz Healey says he noticed
(24:10):
that his metal front gate was open.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
He walked in and says his house was trashed.
Speaker 4 (24:16):
Every room was ransacked, His belongings were tossed around the residents.
He found bottles of alcohol, knives in beds, he found
fresh food, suggesting that they had just been there. And
he said they even went underneath the house. It's an
old house, so guess what it has for pipes? Copper,
So they ripped all those out, oh yep. And then
(24:40):
he called police and secured the property, left because it's trashed.
And a neighbor says that in the middle of the
night after that happened, he heard someone trying to get
back in, like they were like, ah, this is where
I'm going to stay for now.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
But apparently that didn't happen.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
What that? Oh, man, come on now we I'm not
going to get into all of our security, but we
have a raised house and we're aware of everything.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
But people, Hey, I don't understand how any of that
can be legal in any way, shape or form. I mean,
why not, I know, but squatting, how there's like weird
laws that if they're there for a certain amount of time.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Oh that they then they are resident.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
They have yeah, they have rights. Yeah, that was the dumbest.
Speaker 4 (25:30):
Well, and these guys they hadn't been there for a
long time because the guy was only out of town
for a week and a half, and they busted in,
made themselves at home, and trash the place.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
That's why security, basic security is not enough. When you leave,
you have to have somebody stay. That's just the way
it is. That guy that was accused of trying to
assassinate Trump in Florida, boy Ryan Ruth is that his name. Yes,
(26:01):
I try not to give too much attention to people
like this. He was supposed to testify or have the
opportunity to testify yesterday, and.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
He rest his case without testifying. That's it.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
That's his closing arguments as nothing. Is this the guy
that was you know, representing himself? Yes, yeah, that's that
makes sense. The two things you don't want to do yourself,
Actually there's three, represent yourself in court, do your own tattoos,
which I've done sadly, or or a number of places.
(26:42):
But there's one one on yourself. Yeah, there's were you drunk? No,
the one on I was gosh, the first one I
did on me I was probably thirteen, so I wasn't drinking.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
What do you use that was a needle, some thread
and in.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Indian ink or Indian Indian Indian.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
But I used to do dry runs on parts so
that when people asked when I was doing tattoos, they
asked if I heard, I could say.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Yeah or no. Well you want to be honest, yep,
you want to be honest.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
So this guy was representing himself and didn't want to
put himself on the stand. I wonder if he argued
with himself, you gotta go on the stand. I can't cats,
I'm nervous. Just go up there, buddy, Go up there
and give it all. You got no what if I'm
fold Come on.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
I know you can do it. You've been through this,
you got this. Don't pester me.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Crazies. We have a crazy problem in the US. Crazy
crazy problem in the US. All right, This is KFI
heard everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
You've been listening to the Bill Handle Show.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
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 KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
And now Handle on the news. Ladies and gentlemen, here's
not Bill Handle.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Ah good Chaco Tuesday. You know, Latinos don't say that
it's like Black lives matter. You don't find those signs
on black people's houses because they know, seriously, go to
white neighborhoods.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
That's where you see those.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Oh we love them. Yeah, they're great. Here's a sign.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
KFI AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Neil Sevader in the Morning crew with you Handles on vacation.
We think, we don't know, he may pop on randomly.
No more ambient for that guy, especially when he's out
of town. We don't know what time it is.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Anywhere.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Happy to be with you today and with you throughout
the rest of the week. Did you hear Amy King?
She and I are going over the edge of the
Hilton in Universal City. Seriously, come on, well, you're better
than that. And we're doing it for a great cause,
Union Rescue Mission. If you want to support with a donation,
(01:33):
we'd love that. If you want to jump with us,
that's a thousand dollars donation, but anything helps to either
Amy or myself or me or I I don't know.
My mom will call him correctly, correct me shortly. Yourem
dot org slash ote over the edge, and we appreciate
in advance anything that you gift. You guys really did
(01:57):
a great job last year. We always are thrilled to
talk about how great KFI listeners are and you guys
are incredibly generous. If you wonder why somebody like me
complains that complains about the homeless situation is supporting a homeless.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Charity, it's because they do it right. It's a dry house.
You have to be sober, all those things.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Yes, Amy, I was just going to say, we just
had the CEO of Union Rescue Mission, Mark Hood on
with us. Great guy, by the way, great guy, and
he does such a great job explaining what they do
with the money and how they actually help people get
off the streets.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
They don't just throw money at it.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
They're not just saying here's a meal and here's a
place to stay for a week. They like, you know,
help them. They give them counseling, and they give them training,
and they help them find a job, and they get
them sober and make the transition. You know, it's because
it's hard to come off the streets and go back
into like regular society or whatever you want to call it.
Marked us such a great job explaining that. You can
(02:59):
listen to it. It was just played on wake Up
Call and you can listen anytime on the iHeartRadio app
if you want to go back and revisit that.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Good folks, good organization. They are one of my since
we met them last year, they became one of my
monthly donations because I really respect what they're doing. I've
put my money in this as well. I am not
asking you to do something that I don't do myself.
And then we're going over the building and repelling down
two hundred and fifty feet or so, just to bring
(03:28):
attention to the cause. So that's a good morning to
Amy King, Good morning to you.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Kno, Good morning, Neil. How you doing, Pale? I'm pretty good.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Life's all right, life's great. And Will good morning. How
are you sir?
Speaker 2 (03:41):
I'm hanging in there. I'm good. Yeah. You seem like
you got energy shopping around today. Good. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
I'm going to try and scare you sometime today. Haven't
done that in a while. Sneak it up on Will's
a treat, He responds, wonderfully.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Nan is really good at it for some reason, and
she doesn't mean to be. But she scares a bit
because she's small like a cat. That's it.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Yeah, And Matthew, I know, buddy, get on that mic.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Yes, dely struggle here, Hi, Matt here, happy to be here,
produce me, good to be here. Thanks.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Matt's in for Anne, who should be back on Thursday,
I believe. And Bilin de leone on Channel four looking
rather delightful and green today.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
That's all I'm saying. I don't know. I just love her.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
I think she is adorable and beautiful. And I don't know,
I'm a big Berlin Dela de Leon. Yeah, that's uh fan.
Let's get started with handle on the news lead story.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
All right.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
So yesterday Disney, the parent company of ABC Television network
you know this by now, they announced that Jimmy Kimmel
late night host would resume taping new up episodes of
Jimmy kim Alive Today, less than a week actually after
it was pulled off the air for comments related to
the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. So they came
(05:12):
out and they said last Wednesday, we made the decision,
this is their words, to suspend production on the show
to avoid further inflaming a tense situation and an emotional
moment in our country. It is a decision we made
because we felt some of the comments were ill timed
(05:33):
and thus insensitive. The statement continued, we have spent the
last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations,
we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday.
So here's a couple of things to think about.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
One.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
I didn't think that the comments were fireworthy. Maybe a
suspension the indefinitely the indefinite part probably shouldn't have been said.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
But this is what stirred things up.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, who's an appointee of President Trump,
called Kimmel's comments truly sick and threatened regulatory action against
broadcasters who carried the comedian's program.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
That's where you lose me.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
That's where For one, it's different than Roseanne bar because
what Roseanne Barr said was racist.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
But as far as Cara Doon.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
And Gina Gosh carrato that I likened it too. I
think she got a raw deal, but she sued and
she won. However, like I said before, canceling somebody by
way of culture is one thing, and I hate that too,
(07:00):
But when you do it via the government, that is censorship,
and that's a whole different thing to me. So Sinclair
said they are going to preempt Jimmy kimmelive, They're still
not going to play it, and I think Next Star
has not announced whether they're going to play the show
or not. And if you're talking about two hundred and fifty,
(07:21):
if he's got an audience of about a million nationwide
and you have two one hundred and fifty affiliates, let's
just say two thousand people each affiliate is watching, that's
not very many. That's half your audience. That's half your audience.
So we'll see how this continues on. But that is
(07:42):
the update. We'll obviously talk about this a little bit later.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Don't take your title and all that is the urging
of the president, at least if you're pregnant. President Trump
announced that the FDA believes the use of a set
of MENEF and of course that's the active and ingredient
in til all, and a lot of cold and flu
medications during pregnancy can be associated with an increased risk
of autism. This was the announcement that he teased during
(08:08):
the Charlie Cook Memorial on Sunday. He said, effective immediately,
the FDA will notify positions that the use of a
set of metaphine during pregnancy can be associated with a
very increased risk of autism. And then he went on
and basically said, don't take it, ladies, power through it
(08:28):
unless it's medically necessary. But he basically urged pregnant women
not to take tailanol. And then he got off topic
as he has wont to do and talked about childhood
vaccinations and he said vaccine should be given in smaller
doses and spread out over a period of years. And
then he said, you know, I'm just making these statements
(08:49):
from me.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
I'm not making them from these doctors.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
What do you know why he keeps saying all which
is the name brand? Why you can't say a set
of minifin? Well, obviously I couldn't say it either, so well,
I don't know how the pronounce he is, but but yeah,
but that's why he tried like three times, couldn't get
it out.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
And oh, he did, I didn't see, so then he
just goes.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Til at all.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
But it's Uh, the studies that I've looked at because
I was curious about this.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Really say the opposite.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
The studies that I've seen say they do not have
enough information and they've done massive, large studies on this.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
There are studies that suggest there's a link. There's studies
that suggest there's not a link. But there are studies
on both sides.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Yes, but the studies, the vast majority of what's out
there contradicts this.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
It doesn't stand alongside it.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
So I wonder where they got this link because rfk Jr.
Says the FDA based its decision on a cedam nfin
on clinical and laboratory studies that suggest a potential association
between a cedamnfin use during pregnancy and adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Yeah, and doctors have applied with no the vast majority
of our studies that are out there, and some of them,
I think we're two million people, you know, not tiny tiny.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
So we'll see how this goes.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
And that's why he says is this is not from doctrine.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
No, that's from the vaccination.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
Comments about spreading off vaccine from doctrine.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
This is for me.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
President did not stay from doctor. Listen, he can step
in it enough. You don't need your help.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Well just I don't know. Makes me nervous when they
start going towards like skiance. That's the weird stuff, all right.
Trump addressing the UN. He will address the United Nations
General Assembly today. And there's a lot going on. You've
got a strain with US allies over Palestinian statehood. That's
(11:07):
going to be a big deal. You've got trade issues,
massive flashpoints across the board. So, and Trump's not a
huge fan of the UN. So she.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
So.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Press Secretary White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt says that
as far as a tiny little preview of the remarks
that will happen today, says that Trump will highlight the
renewal of American strength around the world.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Hey, hey, un you want to know where the beach is?
I think it's that way, or maybe it's that way.
Anybody got band aids? I think them cut? No? Maybe law?
Speaker 3 (11:55):
What law?
Speaker 4 (11:57):
The Department of Homeland Security says it is not going
to comply with a new law in California just signed
by the governor over the weekend that ban's most law
enforcement officers, including ICE agents, from wearing face coverings while
they're doing official business on x DHS posted to be clear,
we will not comply with Governor Newsom's unconstitutional mask ban.
(12:21):
At a time that ICE law enforcement faces a one
thousand percent increase in assaults and their family members are
being docked and targeted, the city governor of California signed
unconstitutional legislation that strips law enforcement of protections in a disgusting,
diabolical fundraising and PR stunt. They said they're not going
to do it.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Wow, this just in a mall.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Cop says the LAPD will not be allowed in two malls.
So that's gonna You know what I would do. I
would get every face mask printed with printed with Nusom's
face on it, so when they come in and ICE
(13:05):
comes in, they're all coming in with a mask covering
their face that looks like Newsome.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
And then nobody would even notice that they were wearing
them because they were so good.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Or take off all the masks, but everybody, just all
the ICE agents should be in Newsome like hair and
that nowhere suits.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
It'll be interesting to see what happens with this because again,
if federal law supersedes.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
S, I mean, what are gonna tackle them?
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Yeah, you're gonna have Sorry.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Bro Newsom says they got to do this. Not gonna happen.
Not gonna happen. They ignore, uh, you know, national laws constantly.
I mean, even if you look at so called sanctuary
city stuff. Come on, all right to major hurricane Gabrielle
(14:01):
is brushing up against Bermuda. So, uh, we're worried about
the threats obviously in the US and the impact that
it's going to have. So hopefully it's going to steadily
lose that tropical status, and but after that, we don't
know if it's going to go down, if it's going
to go up.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
Well here's something, Uh, the hurricane after it goes by
Bermuda could pass over the Azores. I've never heard of
this islands. Apparently it's an island chain. I've never heard
of this is that?
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Like I thought that was a land in Zelda.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Where is.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Azores? A z O r e s someone screaming right
now at the radio. I thought it was Azores. Oh
that's it.
Speaker 4 (14:54):
There are Portuguese are Okay archipelago that No. Nine volcanic Eyland.
It's located in the North Atlantic, fifteen hundred kilometers about
almost one thousand miles west of mainland Portugal.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
That's basically pronouncing Loca YadA as La Canada.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Yeah, we're all where the hell is Loch Canada.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Oh I like that though, I like Canada.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Where lock Canada is, it's Lacayada.
Speaker 4 (15:20):
The Azores Azores never heard of those before.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
Just now in my yes, well I'm not well traveled.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Wow, it goes to big bearn Now She's like, yeah,
so anyways, I learned a little big baryon when I
was out there, and uh, you know, it's nice to
get in touch with the culture.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Yeah, yeah, very uh bur bear forward. Already two little.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Drones caused a whole lot of headaches. All right, it
might have been three, but flights at Copenhagen Airport were
diverted or suspended overnight because of drone sightings. Police say
they saw two to three large unidentified drones, forcing ongoing
flights or outgoing flights at Scandinavia's largest airport to be
(16:10):
grounded and others had to be sent to other airports.
And then there was another drone incident at the Oslo
Norway Airport that forced all traffic to move over to
run to one runway. Traffic later returned to normal. Not
clear who was responsible for the drones, but police chose
(16:31):
not to shoot the drones out of the sky because
of the risk posed by their location near the airport,
which was full of passengers and the planes on the
runways and fuel depots and that kind of stuff.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
So they said, we're not going to shoot them down.
But they don't know who's behind them.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
You know they Uh.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
I thought, don't you have to have drones registered and
have a tail number?
Speaker 3 (16:54):
I mean, I don't know there, but maybe they don't
have to.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
In My drone has a tail number. I don't throw
it up very often anymore, but it's got a tail
number registered, all right?
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Amazon.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
I heard Amy King talking about this on wake up
Call this morning about Amazon facing court hearings. This is
going to take place in Seattle this week. The allegations
are by a federal regulator that the e commerce giant
kind of messing with customers, saying tricking them their terms,
kind of not mine into signing up for their prime membership,
(17:31):
but making it difficult for them to cancel their subscription,
which I can't stand and I hate that that was
reversed by Trump, that we were going there, But it
was like the only thing Biden did.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
That I liked that.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
I was like, all right, that he was going to
make it easier for people to opt out of things.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
Yeah, this thing they were saying, it takes like pages
and pages and fifteen different prompts and that kind of
stuff to actually get the cancelation.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
It's so frustrating. It should need I thought, it's a
no brainer. And this is why I don't like the
partisanship of if this person likes it, then I hate
it that kind of thing, because it was a no brainer.
It should be as easy to opt out as it
is to get in.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Agreed.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
You know, that's just that hurts nobody except the company.
I get it, but you're for the people, and I
hate that.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Now. I love Prime.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
And I will probably never have a need to cancel
it because I like having that service. But still it
should be simple to get out of it if you want.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Agreed?
Speaker 4 (18:46):
Does President Trump get to say his favorite thing, You're fired?
Going to be up to the Supreme Court, the highest
court in the land, will be revisiting a nearly century
old ruling that protects the heads of independent agencies. President
Trump has repeatedly challenged this rule. The Court says it
(19:06):
will agree to take up the issue before the lower
courts have finished weighing in, so they're going to bypass them,
take it all the way to the top, and they'll
hear arguments in December. The Court also said that Trump
could remove for now Rebecca Slaughter. She was the last
Democrat on the Federal Trade Commission, so she can be out,
and then the High Court will review whether he has
(19:27):
the power to do that as president.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
All right, Seawan Didty Combs that we haven't heard about
or from him in some time.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Combs.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
The lawyers for Seawan Didty Combs urged New York federal
judge just yesterday to sentence him early next month to
no more than fourteen months in prison for his conviction
on those two prostitution related charges, by the way, meaning
that he'd go free almost immediately if the judge agreed,
because he's done so much time already and he's been
(20:00):
under constant suicide watch, which why would you be under
suicide watch if you already knew you know, he got
the most lenient sentence.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
He could for what he was charged with.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
So his actual sentencing fate will be on October third,
But I don't know.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
I thought he got off pretty easy with that.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
All right, Well, there could be some fireworks here. President
Trump is expected to meet with House Minority Leader Hakem
Jeffries and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer this week. They're
going to be talking about funding the government, because if
they don't come up with a funding plan and get
it passed, the government shuts down October first. But apparently
(20:47):
she and I heard Schumer earlier this week saying, I
demand a meeting with the president. Apparently it's going to happen.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Well, he demanded it.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
I'm sure that's why Trump's going to do it.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
He goes, okay, so five hundred million bucks was frozen.
You remember that UCLA medical research grants. Trump said, not,
you're not getting them because all the anti semitism that
was going on, which I agree, I was as far
as them being sanctioned or punished or something. It was
(21:19):
horrific to see things that were going on there. You know,
wrong is wrong is wrong. People just pick who they
want to bash when they want to bash them. However,
there's a lot of good medical research coming out of
those grants. So the federal judge ordered Trump to restore
that five hundred million dollars that has been frozen back
(21:40):
into UCLA and their medical research.
Speaker 4 (21:46):
Thirty seven counts of attempted murder, that's how many Fernando
Ramirez if San Clementi is charged with. He's the guy
who is accused of driving his vehicle into a crowd
outside a nightclub in East Hollywood.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
That happened in July.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
That was the one that was shot, right, Yeah, So.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
He pleaded not guilty to thirty seven counts of attempted
murder and thirty seven counts of assault with a deadly weapon,
which prosecutors say was the car. And apparently he got
kicked out of the Vermont Hollywood club on Santa Monica
on July nineteenth, early in the morning, got mad, got
in his car and came and ran down a group
(22:29):
of people.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
What the hell is wrong with people?
Speaker 1 (22:32):
I've never been in a club that I cared about
whether I got kicked out or not.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
I would imagine you've been kicked out of a lot.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
I have been kicked out of a few.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Ye All right, Long time ago, Amen, I don't know
why you bring it up, all right, man, charged wah.
Every time I hear stories like this, I think, did
your dad not own a belt? Chars with shining laser
pointer at Marine one with Trump aboard.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Don't you know?
Speaker 1 (23:06):
I don't care if it's the you know, president or
anybody else. It's bad across the board. But why people
feel the need to shine a laser up at thousands
and thousands, tens of thousands of pounds of machinery flying
above is is asinine. So he was accused of this
(23:28):
presidential helicopter Marine one. President Trump was on board, and
he was arrested, and he'll probably be held up by
you know, the far left as a hero.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
We'll see.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
Squatters did a real number on a home in Santa Monica.
So there's an award winning independent filmmaker and cinematographer who
recently returned to his home in Santa Monica. He had
been away on a job in New York for a
week and a half and he came home and found
his house in tatters. Fidel Ruiz Healey says he noticed
(24:10):
that his metal front gate was open.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
He walked in and says his house was trashed.
Speaker 4 (24:16):
Every room was ransacked, His belongings were tossed around the residents.
He found bottles of alcohol, knives in beds, he found
fresh food, suggesting that they had just been there. And
he said they even went underneath the house. It's an
old house, so guess what it has for pipes? Copper,
So they ripped all those out, oh yep. And then
(24:40):
he called police and secured the property, left because it's trashed.
And a neighbor says that in the middle of the
night after that happened, he heard someone trying to get
back in, like they were like, ah, this is where
I'm going to stay for now.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
But apparently that didn't happen.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
What that? Oh, man, come on now we I'm not
going to get into all of our security, but we
have a raised house and we're aware of everything.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
But people, Hey, I don't understand how any of that
can be legal in any way, shape or form. I mean,
why not, I know, but squatting, how there's like weird
laws that if they're there for a certain amount of time.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Oh that they then they are resident.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
They have yeah, they have rights. Yeah, that was the dumbest.
Speaker 4 (25:30):
Well, and these guys they hadn't been there for a
long time because the guy was only out of town
for a week and a half, and they busted in,
made themselves at home, and trash the place.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
That's why security, basic security is not enough. When you leave,
you have to have somebody stay. That's just the way
it is. That guy that was accused of trying to
assassinate Trump in Florida, boy Ryan Ruth is that his name. Yes,
(26:01):
I try not to give too much attention to people
like this. He was supposed to testify or have the
opportunity to testify yesterday, and.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
He rest his case without testifying. That's it.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
That's his closing arguments as nothing. Is this the guy
that was you know, representing himself? Yes, yeah, that's that
makes sense. The two things you don't want to do yourself,
Actually there's three, represent yourself in court, do your own tattoos,
which I've done sadly, or or a number of places.
(26:42):
But there's one one on yourself. Yeah, there's were you drunk? No,
the one on I was gosh, the first one I
did on me I was probably thirteen, so I wasn't drinking.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
What do you use that was a needle, some thread
