Speaker 2 (01:46):
But you were able to talk your way out of it.
I was always very upfront. Yeah I didn't. I lied
about everything. No, it wasn't me. I didn't know anything
about it. Somebody else did it, all right? We on
our look ahead.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
That's what those almost are called, when we tell you
we're going to do something to tomorrow or Monday or
later today.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
And ours was about bedbugs.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
We got a bed bugs problem, ladies and gentlemen, not
here in southern California, but a destination a lot of
us are familiar with, and that is Loss Vegas. Yes, yes, yes, yes,
what's going on in Las Vegas with the bedbugs?
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Need to make sure that that room is bedbug free?
Speaker 5 (02:29):
Two Las Vegas Strip.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Does that sound like that guy's been in Vegas for
his whole life? Doesn't that sound like a typical guy
who runs a casino need to.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Make sure that that room is bedbug free.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
That guy's been there for eighty years.
Speaker 6 (02:43):
Two Las Vegas strip hotels facing lawsuits after guests were
reportedly bitten by bedbugs.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Oh no, oh no, and in one case, the guests
were moved from one bedbug infested room to another infested room.
Can I give you a tip on how to find
bed bugs in a hotel room?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
You take the iron.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Almost every room comes with an ironing board and a
close iron. You take the iron, you heat it up,
and then you basically iron a corner of the bed,
and those bed bugs will be attracted to the heat
that comes from the iron, and you lift up the
sheet and if there's bed bugs, you'll see them under
(03:26):
the sheet. They'll they'll flock to that warm corner of
the bed. They love warmth, And so you pull the
sheet up and if there's nothing there, you're good, you're clean.
But if there's bed bugs, you'll see them after you
iron the corner of the bed. There's a little tip
for you.
Speaker 7 (03:44):
Now.
Speaker 6 (03:44):
Each of the incidents outlined in this particular lawsuit happened
last summer eight and is now Reporter Joshua Paghero joins
us with the cringe worthy details and what those guests
now want.
Speaker 7 (03:54):
The Luxor and Treasure It another two hotels targeted in
these lawsuits and cory documents. A yesay, they were attacked
by bedbugs and left with scars.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
Housekeeping has to be thoroughly trained. They have to know
how to inspect. They need to really do a diligent
job before they turn that room over to the guest.
Speaker 7 (04:14):
Brian v Rag is representing your three clients Suing Lugsre
and Treasure Island. He shared it with us photos and video.
These are bite marks on each of the guests.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
They typically will bite in linear patterns. We call it breakfast,
lunch and dinner.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Wow, what a creative term or title for how the
bedbugs are biting you. We call it breakfast, lunch and dinner. Man,
I wonder who came up with that night. Hey, the
bed bugs reading us in the morning, in the afternoon,
in the evening, what should we call them breakfast, lunch
and dinner? A great idea? Al fantastic. In the lawsuit
(04:53):
against get Al a Coop Deeville, he deserves the Coopteville
for the week.
Speaker 7 (04:57):
In the lawsuit against Treasure Island, a hotel from Los Angeles,
stayed there last June for three nights. She says, TI
sent its risk management team to the room and confirmed bedbugs.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Now, I'm gonna stay on high alert here because I
know that if some people lose an s load down
at the casino, they want the room comped, and the
best way to do it is like, look been chewed
up by these bed bugs.
Speaker 7 (05:24):
She was then reportedly moved to another room. The court
document schille on June twenty second, she noticed more bitees
afs of the room. Change GI reportedly sent staffs of
the new room and confirmed bed bugs.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Oh no, confirmed by the hotel. Bed bugs, bad bugs.
How depressing bed bugs? Bed bugs, bed bugs. It's on
or beta bugs, as he says, bed bugs, beta bugs,
bed bugs.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
It's on the hotel to make sure that they are
not creating a dangerous condition.
Speaker 5 (05:53):
Luxor faces two lawsuits.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Who would have guessed that the Luxor would be the
bed bugs city.
Speaker 7 (06:00):
Faces two lawsuits, One incident happened last June and the
other in July.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
In the June case, have you guys ever stayed at Luxor,
Crozier or Bellio Angels state early on Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Oh yeah, okay you have yeah. Have you been buzzed
at Luxtor? No?
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Man, it freaks you out because those elevators don't go
straight up, they go sideways. They go yeah, and you
feel every movement of that elevator. Pretty cool. They go
up at an angle and you're like, wait a minute,
is that me?
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Is that me? This is I'm about to throw up.
Speaker 5 (06:31):
The hotel guest says.
Speaker 7 (06:32):
Luxor sent staff in an EMT to the room after
the guests had a reaction.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
It felt like her throat was closing.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Oh no.
Speaker 5 (06:39):
An ambulance reported.
Speaker 7 (06:40):
He took her to the hospital, where she was seen
in the parking lot due to the bedbugs.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
Doctor's gate.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Oh, they didn't even they didn't even invite her into
the emergency room. If you got bedbugs, you sit out
in the parking lot and we come see you.
Speaker 7 (06:52):
Oh man, But she was seen in the parking lot
due to the bed bugs.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
How about that.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
You're so sick that the emergency rooms is no dice.
You know, you got to sit at the parking lot.
We'll send the doctors out there.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Doctors gave her narcotics.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Ks choke somehow, yeah right, yeah, in you know in
uh in in our In America, you go into an
emergency room. In Russia, emergency room comes out to you. Yeah,
that's a yak off. In America, you get in cab.
In Russia, cab gets on you. Yes, in America, you
(07:27):

gave her narc.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
It's his whole act. It's great. It really is great.
Speaker 7 (07:35):
Doctors gave her narcotics. The laws who says she had
to pay an uber back to the hotel, Luxore provided
a refund for the resort fee.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
It doesn't matter if you're paying sixty dollars a night
for a room or six hundred dollars a night for
a room.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Hmm, it kind of does.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
I don't know where this guy's been, but you do
get a nicer pad for six hundred night than you
do at sixty at night.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
The obligation on the hotel operation is the same. You
have to keep the guests safe.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Okay, I understand that, But you're paying sixty bucks a night.
You should be expecting the bugs, the bee bugs, the
bed bugs come with sixty bucks a night six hundred
a night.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
That's a different story.
Speaker 5 (08:17):
Joshua Paguero eight News.
Speaker 6 (08:18):
Now Now records we obtain from the Southern Nevada Health
District show that last year, from February to August, inspectors
found bedbugs at the Cosmopolitan Resorts World, the Laggio and
Hilton Grand Vacation Club. The Luxor and Treasure Island were
not listed, but the attorney representing those guests say people
often fail to report bed bugs to the Health district.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Now, bed bugs, don't you know? Bed bugs come in
with other guests. So it's not that the hotels are filthy.
The guests are filthy. You know, they come in off
of planes, they got bedbugs in their luggage, and all
of a sudden they're in the room.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Bed bugs. A boy, oh boy.
Speaker 8 (08:54):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on De Maya from
KFI AM six forty.

It's going to be sweater weather and you have to
be aware of that if you have an outdoor event.
Maybe you're going to the Renaissance Fair.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
I'd like to go. Now, it's gonna be sixty five degrees.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
It's gonna be the last weekend for the Renaissance Fair,
and I might go.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
You say, you've.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Been to a renaissance before, No, you've never been to
a Dude, You're gonna love it, man, is that right?

Speaker 6 (11:35):

Speaker 3 (11:35):

Speaker 2 (11:39):
Okay, all right, all right?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Yeah they have they have costumes that you can rent there.
You can come in costume.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Oh wait, you rent costumes though?
Speaker 5 (11:46):

Speaker 2 (11:47):
Yeah? Yeah, is that right? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:48):
What's the have they been laundered or is that a
crap shoot? They say they're laundered. Okay, and I've never
had an issue. All right, I've only done that a
couple of times.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
But I might go.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
You know, I think you would get a total black
people watching and checking things out. Make sure you go
to some of the shows, sit down and catch it
because they're pretty dang entertaining.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
All right, did you go alone?
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Never going alone?
Speaker 1 (12:08):
That's usually how I travel, just the lonely guy out
there at the Renaissance. But I might go because you know,
I can go to the races then go afterwards. What
time they close they open at night or is.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
It just say they're done like at six or seven?
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Okay, all right, I gotta get out there.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Hey, I got a nice gift here from a guy
named Craig Durst. He sent me this little horse racing
game that we've been playing all day. He said, born
about the same time you were. He was born on
four eleven, nineteen sixty four. All right, we're almost we're
about a half a year apart. I've reaped a lot
(12:47):
of laughter from the conways all of my life. I
owe you and your father a great deal. But all
you're getting. Is this crappy ding Dong Derby set all
the best Craig Durst, So, Craig, thank you. We've been
playing that game all day. I want to well, lost
a couple of bucks. But it's great, it's great. All right,
(13:07):
we have a we have time for this, I think
we do. Yeah, we have a an underwater volcano soon
to erupt, an underwater volcano which might create a whole
new island. Yeah, and you you're gonna watch this, probably
live on TV.
Speaker 10 (13:24):
It's one of the coolest things that happens on our planet.
Speaker 11 (13:27):
It's a volcanic eruption that could happen by the end
of the year.
Speaker 10 (13:30):
The best studied underwater volcano in the world right now,
and every time we go through this volcanic cycle, we're
learning things new.
Speaker 11 (13:36):
Debbie Kelly, a University of Washington oceanography professor, has been
studying the Axial Seamount for years. It's a massive underwater
volcano about three hundred miles off the Oregon coast and
nearly forty nine hundred feet below the oceans.
Speaker 10 (13:51):
This is the channel way.
Speaker 11 (13:52):
Scientists at udub's Cabled Array, one of the largest ocean
observatories in the world monitoring this active volcano. I've seen
potential eruption signs the last few months.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Okay, so this has got a lot long way to
go before it becomes an island. You have about four
thousand feet of lava that needs to freeze over before
it becomes an island.
Speaker 11 (14:14):
And increases in earthquakes beneath the seafloor and the volcano
inflating due to build up of megma.
Speaker 10 (14:20):
Doe.
Speaker 11 (14:20):
People need to worry about this eruption.
Speaker 10 (14:23):
Now we get asked that a lot these volcanoes, No,
people will not. If we didn't have the ray out there,
people would not know that it was gonna rep or
that it was repped.
Speaker 11 (14:32):
It's unlikely for the underwater eruption to trigger a tsunami,
a major earthquake, or cause extensive damage like land volcanoes
could one.
Speaker 10 (14:41):
They don't have a mile of water sitting on top
of them, which is dampens it. But they also don't
have as much gases, and the magma compositions are different.
So all of those things make it that they're not
a very explosive eruption.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah, they're gonna they have a camera there though, we'll
probably be able to see it on TV. All right,
Los Angeles International Airport. I call it Lax. It's about
to get cooler, like, not temperature wise, but nicer. There's
the transit. The Metro Transit Center is gonna open. I'm
gonna tell come back and tell you when it's gonna open.
It's fairly soon. But the LAX Metro Transit Center is
(15:19):
gonna open fairly soon. When come back, I'll tell you
about it when it opens and how it's gonna make
your trip to Lax a lot easier.
Speaker 8 (15:27):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI AM.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Six forty, The Conway Show. Maybe you're a big hockey fan.
You love the National Hockey League like I do. There's
a game going on right now, the Panthers, Florida Panthers
versus the Toronto Maple Leafs. That series is tied two
to two. It's the best of seven, and that game
(15:52):
is being played tonight in Toronto. If Toronto wins, they'll
go up three games to two. If the Panthers win,
they'll go up three games to two. And right now
in the third period, Maple Leafs zero, Panthers six. So
a nightmare for Toronto right now. They're gonna lose this
(16:12):
game in Toronto. Then they're gonna have to travel to
Florida to play the Panthers, who are pretty tough at
home in Game six, which will be this weekend, so
that's a big deal. And then the next the game
later on tonight, I think, is the Oilers and the
Golden Knights, and the Oilers are of three games to
(16:33):
one in that series.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
All right, that's the a quick look at sports.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Great sports talk is what I like to call that
great sports talk.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
All right, tuy.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
United Airlines is unveiling a brand new deal.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
For premium travelers.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
People have got a couple of bucks people have, you know,
instead of going out and partied like everybody else, they
went to bed early and made a lot of money.
And now you get the perks from United Airlines.
Speaker 12 (17:02):
Passengers who buy a seat on a United Airlines international
flight next year may not want to get off that plane.
And here's why. The airline just unveiled its luxurious Polaris
Studio suites for business class travelers. I see Danny looking
at this too. It'll be offered on United's new Dreamliner
seven eighty seven to nine aircraft. The suites have privacy doors,
twenty seven inch seatbackscreens, and hoodie pajamas and slippers.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
How about that you have a curtain.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
You can literally it's like traveling in your own tiny
little studio apartment as you go from here to France
or England or Asia wherever they United flies.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Here's what you get again.
Speaker 12 (17:40):
The suites have privacy doors, twenty seven inch seatbackscreens, and
hoodie pajamas and slippers. Passengers can also indulge in luxury
skincare products while feasting on bite sized caviat or.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Drms me up.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Oh my god, sounds great, doesn't it. Yeah, it sounds beautiful.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Oh boy? All right.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
The OC trolley system the Santa Ana business owners anxious
for Orange County streetcars that are about the same.
Speaker 13 (18:09):
Downtown Santa Anna during the day is sleepy at best,
but transportation officials are hoping a new six hundred and
fifty million dollar trolley system will change that.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
God, they got a lot of money in Orange County.
We're broke.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
In La broke, La County's broke, La City's broke. And
in Orange County they have billions of dollars. They're putting
a billion dollars into the Great Park in Irvine, A
billion dollars just to fix the park up, A billion dollars.
They're gonna put six and a half billion dollars into
this streetcar system.
Speaker 13 (18:42):
Last week, OCTA unveiled the new OC streetcar, which will
travel along a four mile route from Santa Anna to
Garden Grove. Daniel Berrigan's family has operated Charlie's Tattoos for
twenty four years in downtown Santa Anna. She says, she
and fellow business owners along the historic Fourth Street corridor.
We're excited when they were originally promised that the street
(19:04):
car will be up and running in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
But how's that going. By the way, it's gonna be
up and running.
Speaker 13 (19:10):
And when that the street car will be up and
running in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Twenty twenty one. M I don't think we're gonna make
that deadline, but.
Speaker 13 (19:19):
She says, every year has been a letdown.
Speaker 9 (19:22):
This is going to be I think an exit point
of the trolley, so we'll get that foot traffic in.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
But when I don't know what that means, I have
no idea what this woman just said.
Speaker 13 (19:32):
But she says every year has been a letdown.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
All right, See if you can figure out what this
woman just.
Speaker 9 (19:36):
Said, this is going to be, I think an exit
point of the trolley.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
I don't know what that means.
Speaker 9 (19:42):
This is going to be I think an exit point
of the trolley.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Okay, and what else, So we'll get that foot traffic in.
But when I don't know what that means.
Speaker 13 (19:52):
Construction began a few years ago. First, she says, they
took out the parking spaces in front of their shop.
Then they built a stop which they cover with wood
panels and a fence.
Speaker 9 (20:02):
As you could see, the trolley is right here and
we're all gated. So anyone who's driving, for example, this
car here, he doesn't see what's going on. He doesn't
know that we're here.
Speaker 13 (20:12):
That were existing, she says, they lost countless potential customers
because people can't find them, people can't park, or people
think they're closed. So to get better street recognition, she
tells me they had to purchase these banners and put
it on the gate themselves. The only problem is it
came out of their pockets at least two thousand dollars
a pop. Thankfully, her father, Charlie, also designs clothing and
(20:36):
sells other goods which help them stay open.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Ah, it's a nightmare, all right.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Well, they're trying to get the trolley system going and
probably another couple of years. It's about seven years, six years,
seven years late, and they'll eventually get there.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
But I don't know what happened. I don't know what happened.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
We talked about this earlier in the week, but people
wanted to hear more about it. In and Out is
changing some of their recipes.
Speaker 14 (21:02):
In and Out is making changes to some of its
recipes and move aims to bring them menu in line
with proposals by the Trump administration to ban certain artificial ingredients.
Speaker 10 (21:12):
Now.
Speaker 14 (21:12):
In a statement, the fast food chain says it will
be removing artificial coloring from its pink lemonade.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Okay, so the pink lemonade might just be clear or.
Speaker 14 (21:23):
Yellow and strawberry shakes. In and Out we'll also begin
using ketchup made with real sugar rather than high fruit
toast corn syrup.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
That's a good deal. I hope they stay with Hines.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
When I go into restaurant and I get packets of ketchup,
if it's Hines, I know they care about their food.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
If it's another like off brand.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
I'm like, ooh, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Hines is still the king of all ketchup.
Speaker 14 (21:49):
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior said
he plans to ban eight artificial dyes from foods, and
Kennedy also suggested phasing out the use of high fruit
toast syrups in and Out. Says the changes will not
affect the taste of its popular food.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
There you go, and I do have a tip for you.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
I learned it over the weekend. Mother's Day is your
day to go to in and Out. I went there
with my daughter on Sunday on Mother's Day around two
thirty and there were there was literally six cars in
front of us. Usually forty or fifty cars in burbank.
Six cars in front of us. Ordered quickly, food was hot,
Food was great. Got out of there in probably fifteen minutes.
(22:31):
It was a great deal. Great deal Mother's Day, Disneyland,
Mother's Day in and Out because all the moms are
home opening up gifts that they have to pretend that
they like.
Speaker 8 (22:44):

Craig Durst. Been playing that game all day. See TAC
Airport Alaska Airlines. If you're a big fan of Alaska,
they now have a new route. They're going from Seattle
to Tokyo, Japan.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
How about that route? Huh?
Speaker 15 (23:16):
So, certainly this is not the first flight that goes
directly to Japan from the US, but it is going
to be the first for the Pacific Northwest. So here
in this area it is going to get a lot
easier and faster to travel over towards Japan.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
So take a look at this.
Speaker 15 (23:30):
So daily NonStop flights between Seattle and Tokyo Narita that
will start tomorrow, and the Tokyo Narita Airport is well known,
not only for travelers for vacation.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Would you be nervous if you were on the initial
flight from Seattle to Tokyo, like they've never flown that route
before and you're on the first flight, wouldn't you be
looking out the window most of the time saying, got
oprah on on target?
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Here to miss hope we're gonna make this city.
Speaker 15 (24:02):
But also for business now, Alaska Airlines says it is
committing to reaching twelve international destinations by twenty thirty. And
Alaska's Seattle hub is actually the largest airline hub on
the West Coast. It serves more than one hundred NonStop
destinations across North America.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Alaska Airlines is great. I'm a big fan of Alaska.
I travel Alaska all the time.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
They do it. Fantastic, fantastic job.
Speaker 15 (24:26):
Now all of this comes after Alaska Airlines merged with
Hawaiian Airlines.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Just last year.
Speaker 15 (24:30):
Alaska air says the new Tokyo service allows them to
improve how many people they can serve between Hawaii and Japan.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
The airline says it is a market.
Speaker 15 (24:39):
That has seen a slightly weaker leisure travel demand after
the pandemic, so this should improve things.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
That's right, So you can now go Seattle to Tokyo
on Alaska Airlines. Airwan a very popular store for people
who are healthy and have money.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
That's what you need.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Need both of those to be a frequent shopper at Airwan. Well,
they're opening their very first store up in Venturan for
all you people up in Ventura. Who eat healthy and
who've made a couple of bucks in life, You're going
to get an air Wand.
Speaker 16 (25:10):
Airwan is opening its first location inventur County. Yeah, okay,
so it is scheduled to open in the summer of
next year at the Lakes at Thousand Oaks shopping center.
The chain is known for its high priced organic groceries
and twenty dollars celebrity smoothies.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
And twenty dollars strawberries. You can buy a single strawberry,
I think for twenty bucks.
Speaker 16 (25:33):
The new Thousand Oaks location will mark the eleventh store
in southern California.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
I'm shocked that this is the first location in venturing health.
Speaker 7 (25:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 16 (25:41):
Yeah, but that's a good location.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Yeah, it's a good location.
Speaker 16 (25:45):
We're still waiting for our West Hollywood location open up.
They've got the sign up that it's going to be there.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
So her reaction to this Airwan opening in Ventura was
what born, I'm not shocked, I'm shocked. How about that,
I'm shocked. She needs to have a shocked meter adjusted
brand shocks. I don't think shock is what for people
are experiencing. All right, doctor training the first medical school
to fully incorporate AI in training its doctors, so the
(26:14):
AI will be doing a lot of the work.
Speaker 17 (26:15):
Medical students are well versed in the rigorous demands required
of their education, but new artificial intelligence tools like chat
GBTEDU from open ai are designed to help. The Icon
School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is the first medical
school in the nation to grant access to the platform
to all of its MD and graduate students.
Speaker 5 (26:35):
YA public pain.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
We're going through a blood vessel right and through your wrist.
Speaker 17 (26:38):
Ferris Gulamily uses it to prep for surgeries and improve
his bedside manner when explaining complex diagnoses to patients. Do
you think that using AI shortened down the time it
would have taken you had you not had that tool?
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Yes, I want to say yes, it really.
Speaker 16 (26:56):
Helped at least reframe the explanation.
Speaker 17 (26:59):
Open AI has collaborated with universities in med schools like
Mount Sinai to ensure robust safeguards are in place to
protect student and patient privacy.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Don't you think in the future will all be operated
by electronic by computer or robot robotic.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Hands and you know knives.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
I think in the future the doctor will be there
overseeing it, but with the precision of AI.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
I think that's going to be the move in the future.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Maybe not in five years, but in twenty years you
may only have the option of being operated on by
computer and that will probably help. I imagine, you know,
the computer can work twenty four hours a day without
taking arrest, with the robots going in there very precise
in what they're doing. I think it's a huge game
(27:50):
changer for surgery.
Speaker 14 (27:51):
I think in medicine and health in particular, it's essential
that students learn how to use AI and how to
use it safely.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
That's rightly.
Speaker 17 (27:57):
Jabelski is open a eyes VP in General Manager of Education.
She equates the impact of AI in the twenty first
century workplace to that of email and internet access in
the nineteen nineties.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
Yep, AI is taking over. Got to get in. Don't
let this train pass you by. AI is the future.
You've got to be aware of how many different aspects
our life is going to be controlled by AI.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
All right.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
California budget Governor Newsom is planning to cut the budget
in the state of California.
Speaker 12 (28:28):
Evenor Gavin Newsom says California is facing a twelve billion
dollar budget deficit.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Oh No.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Twelve billion with a B twelve billion dollar shortfall.
Speaker 12 (28:38):
Today he laid out is nearly three hundred and twenty
two billion dollar spending plan for the upcoming fiscal year.
To cut down on cost, Newsom has prioritized and proposed
freezing enrollment in a state funded healthcare program for immigrants
in the country illegally. This would not start until twenty
twenty six. Newsom says the deficit is partly due to
(28:58):
economic uncertainty, including the federal tariff policies and a volatile
stock market.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
And if I told you yesterday that either President Trump
or Governor Newsom had said.
Speaker 12 (29:09):
This in a state funded healthcare program for immigrants in
the country illegally, this would not start until twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
They're going to eliminate. Let me back it up here.
Speaker 12 (29:17):
To cut down on cost, Newsom has prioritized and propose
freezing enrollment in a state funded healthcare program for immigrants
in the country illegally.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
How about that.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
You would think that would be a Donald Trump doing that,
but it's not. It's Governor Newsom. And that's going to
be met with a huge, huge resistance digital distraction. Eighty
one percent of gen Z. If you're in gen Z,
eighty one percent of you wish it was easier to
disconnect from your mobile device, or your your whatever, your iPad, whatever,
(29:51):
your digital device is eighty one percent.
Speaker 18 (29:55):
If you've ever been distracted from a job you really
wanted to complete, let me tell you about the novelist
Victor Hugo. He had a book to write, but he
just couldn't get around to it. He partied a lot.
With six months ago, little work completed, and a publisher
looming over him like a hunchback and a tower.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
He took drastic action.
Speaker 18 (30:13):
He gave away all his clothes and locked himself in
his room with nothing but a plain brown woolen shawl.
He cut off every possible distraction and wrote a Hunchback
of Notre Dame. That story came to mind when I
read a new Harris poll showing that eighty one percent
of gen Z those between thirteen and twenty eight wish
(30:34):
it were easier to disconnect from their digital devices.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Yeah, I see it all the time.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Kids when when they're got McDonald's or you know, you
run into kids movie theater whatever out on the town,
They're always on their phone, even when they're at a
table for four and having dinner, maybe a double day
or whatever. They're always on their phone. Always, they are
(31:00):
on their phone, probably fifteen to eighteen hours a day.
They never ever give that up.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Ever.
Speaker 18 (31:07):
I hesitate to claim I know anything about what a
younger generation is experiencing, but I feel this one in
my bones myself. Our problem is the reverse of Victor Hugoes.
His distractions were external coffee houses, salons, more than the
average share of amorus encounters. Our distractions are internalized. We
(31:27):
become addicted to a distraction in our pockets.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
We are addicted to those telephones and those iPads. I'm
the same way. I wake up in the morning and
the first thing I do is open that iPad to
get the news, see what's going on. And literally sometimes
it's three hours later and I can't believe I've wasted
three hours. And then you sit there and you do
it all over again every morning you wake up. The
first thing we all reach for is our digital device,
(31:53):
all of us. And I don't know if it's healthy
or not. I don't imagine it is, but we'll see
what the outcome of that is in years to come.
