Okay, I got a jumpstart on it. Just no, don't
be a hater. I'm creating my own fashion trend. Lot's
going on today, so let's get right to it. Here's
what's ahead on wake Up Call. Arrests in Alta Dina
are up two hundred and fifty percent since the deadly
wildfire tour through the community. The La County Sheriff's department
(01:30):
says it's mostly looters who've been breaking into homes left
empty because of evacuations. Deputy s a Thieves have also
been caught trying to steal copper wires from turned off
power lines. A city council committee has advanced a proposal
that would put a fifteen mile per hour speed limit
on streets around two hundred schools in la. It's part
of continued efforts to improve safety for students. It needs
(01:53):
full council approval before it becomes law. It would only
be in effect before, during, and after school. Thousands of
the faithful have filed past the open coffin of Pope
Francis to pay their last respects at Saint Peter's Basilica.
So many people lined up the Vatican kept it open overnight.
(02:15):
Let people keep filing through. We're going to be talking
with Chris Bakia from actually Bacia with ABC. He's in
Rome and so we're going to get the latest on
that in just a couple of minutes. Trenday arragua is
spreading around the US. But who are they, how'd they
(02:35):
get here? And how can we stop them? ABC's Crime
and Terror analyst Brad Garrett is going to tell us
that's coming about five twenty. Okay, So what's on your list?
What's something that you really want to do before you
leave the planet. And we're not talking about taking a
space trip. We're going to be talking to the founder
of National Bucket List Day, Cindy Lee. That's coming up
(02:57):
before the top of the hour. So yes, it is
National Bucket List Day, So start thinking about what's on
your list. Uh, you know, I love Disney, but it's
been a while since I've really been wowed at the park.
I mean, I always love it, but there's a new
show at the park that literally okay, didn't literally knock
my socks off, but it really just knocked my socks off.
(03:17):
I'm going to go out and about for the season
of the Force, something new in the Disneyland resort. Let's
get started with some of the stories coming out of
the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. California is pushed to
keep film and TV production here in California has cleared
a major hurdle.
Speaker 8 (03:33):
Rebecca Ryan with the DGA and the Entertainment Union Coalition
says a Senate committee unanimously advanced SB six thirty and
a companion bill, A one Pine three eight, passed a
key Assembly committee earlier this week. The bills aim to
expand and modernize the state's film and television tax credit
program from three hundred and thirty million to seven hundred
and fifty million dollars. She says that will stimulate the
economy and create more jobs.
Speaker 7 (03:55):
What we know is that every other plate in the
world appears to want to attract and take this work
overseas and take this work out of California.
Speaker 8 (04:05):
The bills have a few more hurdles to overcome, including
a vote in the full legislature and a budget review.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
Heatherbrooker KFI News.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
A man from Santa Anna has been arrested on suspicion
of killing dozens of cats. Alejandro Acosta is also accused
of stealing an expensive Bengal Linx cat. BULLI say they
found evidence of dead cats while searching his home, but
couldn't say how many. The Bengal links was taken from
a home in Westminster in March. Police have received calls
over the past several weeks about pet cats being stolen
(04:34):
and harmed, with some residents blaming Acosta. Three people have
been arrested in connection with US free of robberies targeting
seven eleven's around La County. Five stores were hit last
Friday in East Hollywood, Echo Park, LA's Pico Union District,
Baldwin Park, and Pasadena. Billy say in each case, the
robbers pulled up in a stolen blue Hyundai Sonata and
(04:57):
one person would act as the lookout.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
The city of is trying to protect its trees from vandals.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Almost Man Samuel Groff faces a felony vandalism charge for
massacring trees in three different neighborhoods in La City. Councilman
Isabelle Herado, who represents downtowns as a coalition of organizations
have come together to see the trees replaced.
Speaker 9 (05:15):
Into our beautiful DTLA constituents that identify the.

Problem Northeast Trees, LA Conservation Corp.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
Who's helping us come up with solutions.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Ferrado has also introduced a motion that would increase penalties
for damaging city trees, implementing tiered financial charges based on
the age of the tree as well as the extent
of the damage. Michael Monks KFI News.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
If you head to the beach Inventura County, you'll probably
see thousands of tiny sea creatures washed ashore. They're called valela's,
nicknamed by the wind sailors. The lelas are related to jellyfish,
and they have this blue purplish color.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
They're actually pretty cool looking.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
They're typically washed ashore by the winds in early spring
or summing summer. I don't think they can sting, but
they're weird life and they're like everywhere on the beaches. Okay,
it's five oh seven on your wake up call and
we're trying to connect with ABC's Chris Machia.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
He's in Rome.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
That I was telling you about the pope and it's
it was amazing to watch it, and some things are
being done differently with the death of this pope compared
to others. And in fact, they were saying that it's
so busy the Vatican. Let's see, where's the story. Kept
Saint Peter's Basilica open all night because so many people
(06:31):
were lined up to say goodbye to Pope Francis. It
was expected to stay open until midnight, but they said, nope,
we're going to keep it open even longer. It looks
like the viewing is going on through Thursday. Okay, while
we wait for Chris, let's get back to some of
the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
A massive wildfire in southern New Jersey has caused evacuations,
(06:55):
power outages, and road closures. ABC's Trevor Alt says the
fire and Ocean County started late Tuesday morning.
Speaker 10 (07:02):
Quickly spreading to neighboring communities. The flames jumping the Garden
State Parkway during rush hour, Officials forced to shut it
down for miles overnight, and authorities cutting power to some
twenty five thousand homes in businesses.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
New Jersey Forest Fire Service officials say the fire has
burned over thirteen thousand acres. It's about fifty percent surrounded.
Officials are warning the fire could still grow due to
dry conditions and strong winds. News brought to you by
Simper solaris the man who carried out a mass shooting
at a Fourth of July parade in the Chicago area
in twenty twenty two scheduled to be sentenced today. Robert Cremo,
(07:40):
the Third pleaded guilty to killing seven people and wounding
dozens of others. The twenty four year old man is
expected to get life in prison. Secretary of State Marco
Rubio says Iran must give up all nuclear enrichment if
it wants to make a deal with the US. He
says the United States is aiming for a peaceful resid
(08:00):
Iran insists its nuclear program is for civilian energy use,
not to build atomic bombs. India has revoked all visas
issued to Pakistani nationals following a deadly attack in Kashmir
in which twenty six people were killed. Police in India
said Tuesday that at least four men with guns opened
(08:21):
fire on dozens of tourists. The Indian government didn't produce
evidence connecting the attack to its neighbor, but said it
had cross border links to Pakistan. Officials in Pakistan responded
to India's action by canceling visas for Indian nationals, closing
its airspace for all Indian owned or operated airlines, and
to suspending all trade with India. A unique celestial event
(08:46):
is about to be visible in the early morning skies,
Sherry Preston says, at about five thirty tomorrow morning, not
this morning. If you go outside and the skies are
clear and you look east, you might see Venus below Venus.
Speaker 11 (08:59):
On the other side of the Moon, you might catch
a glimpse of Saturn, and as the sun rises and
the sky brightens, it'll become clearer, creating something technically known
in the scientific community as the smiley face planet alignment.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Ooh, the smiley place face planet. I have never heard
of that. The smiley face planet alignments. Preston says, you
might need to turn your head a little sideways and squint,
but it'll be there for about an hour. The planets
will make up the eyes, and the crescent Moon creates
the mouth.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Okay, we're I'm going to be on the air, but.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
So I need you to go out and then send
me a note on Instagram and let me know if
you see it, because that sounds kind of fun.
Speaker 7 (09:41):
Mam yo by here yo by that.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
China has sent three astronauts to replace its crew on
the Chinese Space Station. They will stay up there for
roughly six months and do experiments in space medicine and technology,
as well as makeup make improvements to the space station.
Improvements always a good thing. Jina's ultimate goal is to
send a crew to the Moon before twenty thirteen. California's
(10:12):
economy is huge and growing.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
Governor Gavin Newsom says his state's economy has overtaken Japan
to become the world's fourth largest economy. Newsom cites two
new reports for the International Monetary Fund and the US
Bureau of Economic Analysis. The reports say that California's GDP
reached four point one trillion dollars, surpassing Japan's four point
zero two trillion. California is now only behind the United States, China,
(10:35):
and Germany and global rankings. Jason Campedonia KFI News.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Defen Secretary Pete Hegseth is now being criticized for allegedly
putting the signal app on a computer inside his office
at the Pentagon.
Speaker 9 (10:47):
Eg Seth was already under fire for allegedly using signal
to share military attack plans in Yemen. The administration has
said nothing that Hegseth's shared was classified. We also know
his wife, Jennifer, former Fox News producer, was a mon
those on a signal thread discussing the attack plans.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
ABC's Nicole D'Antonio says a statement from the Pentagon says
hegseth use of a communications systems and channels is classified.
It says he has never used and does not currently
use signal on his government computer. So it looks like
chimpanzees enjoy a good happy hour.
Speaker 12 (11:22):
New video recorded by scientists in West Africa shows wild
chimps eating fermented breadfruit together. It's the first time the
shared behavior has been caught on film. Researchers suggest using
the alcohol for social bonding could explain why humans evolved
the ability to metabolize alcohol. The findings were published Monday
in the journal Current Biology. And while the chimps were
eating fermented breadfruit together, they weren't observed making a toast.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
All right, Jack in the Boxes, it's going to close
one hundred and fifty to two hundred underperforming stores as
part of an aggressive financial plan called Jack on Track.
The CEO says the company is focused on accelerating cash
flow and paying down debt. Jack in the Box has
about twenty two hundred stores across twenty two states. It
also operates Del taco I Love a good Jack in
(12:10):
the Box, and Jack in the Box is the one
that has the sour dough instead of a regular bun.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
They put it on sour dough. It's so good Tomorrow.

The Dodgers are back in La taking on the Pirates,
with the first pitch going out at seven o'clock. You
can listen to all Dodger games on AM five to
seventy LA Sports live from the Galpin Motors Broadcast Booth,
and you can stream all the Dodgers games all season
long HD on the iHeartRadio app. The keyword is AM
five seventy LA Sports. Three smoke shops in the San
(12:41):
Fernando Valley have been targeted by thieves in just a
matter of hours. Police say the first one was hit
in Sherman Oaks shortly after four am yesterday. Not kidding
when I said hit. They crashed a Hyundai a Lantra
into the store. A group of at least four people
in dark clothing, grabbed their loot and took off. A
second break in happened less than an hour later in
Granada Hills, and then a third shop was hit in
(13:01):
Gnada Hills at about six thirty am. The La City
Council's voted eleven to two in favor of expanding a
policy that prohibits homeless people from sleeping in public spaces.
The policy which makes it ilegal to sit lie down
or keep belongings in some areas of the city's been
expanded to a Superior Street and Deering Avenue in Chatsworth.
(13:23):
California's economy has surpassed Japan. It's now the fourth largest
in the world. Governor Newsom says the Interstate Monetary Fund
and the US Bureau of Economic Analysis puts the state's
GDP above four trillion dollars. The US, China, and Germany
have the top three economies in the world.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
It is five twenty two.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Let's say good morning to our friend, terror and crime
analyst for ABC, Brad Garrett.
Speaker 13 (13:50):
Morning Brad, Good morning Amy.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Okay, so we've heard a lot lately about this vicious
gang Trende Arragua, and for a while it took me,
well it took me a while to figure out how
to say it, but now I'm it just rolls off
your tongue. We don't know much about them, so can
you tell us tell us more about who Trendy Arugua is.
Speaker 13 (14:13):
So it's a Venezuelan gang, excuse me, that was originally
started in a prison in northeast Venezuela. And apparently at
the time when this gang was developing, they controlled the prison,
and it's been reported that inside this prison was a nightclub,
a bank and if you can imagine that, and apparently
(14:39):
got raided at some point a number of people killed
the guy escape that started this gang. Excuse me, but
what happened, Tomi, is that in the last decade a
number of people have fled Venezuela and they have gone
to various parts of the world. It's like seven point
seven million, and they think that's an underestimate. Three quarters
(15:02):
of a million thereabouts came to the United States, and
certainly eight eight percentage of those I'm going to say
a low percentage joined this gang or came and was
already in this gang and are now in several states
around the country.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
All right, And okay, so you said it's a low
percentage because when you said seven point seven million Venezuelans, well, first,
that's a huge amount of people coming from Venezuela up here,
and they that's all illegal immigration.
Speaker 13 (15:36):
Yeah, so let's be clear, seven point seven million fled
the country. It's probably a bigger number, but perhaps three
quarters of a million or thereabouts came here. Oh okay,
these things, Amy are all estimates, because who knows, right,
I mean, people are here illegally. Ice doesn't know who
(15:56):
they are, which also creates a year huge problem obviously
in id them to figure out are they part of
this gang or are they just here? And you know,
that's obviously the big debate now with President Trump's movement
of folks that allegedly belong to this gang to L.
(16:16):
Salvador and I think also to Guantanamo Bay. But you know,
the you know, the one concern about people like me
who study this stuff is that are they a problem?
Sure they are a problem. Are they the biggest gang
problem in the US? The answers, No, there are other
gangs that are far bigger, more organized.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
You know, your.
Speaker 13 (16:40):
City in particular is sort of a hub for gangs, right,
I mean it always has been MS thirteen, you know,
between the Long Beach in Los Angeles, there's a lot
of gangs that started here and are continuing to grow.
So gangs are just a big problem in the US.
There's thirty three thousand estimated number of gangs now. Granted,
a vast majority of those are local, controlling certain communities
(17:05):
or certain streets in a given city. And I'm sure
you have some of those. Two in La besides bigger gangs,
they're very difficult for law enforcement to investigate, to figure
out actually who is part of this gang, what is
their real name? And Venezuelan's in particular, the Venezuelan government
(17:26):
doesn't communicate with the US about who they are, doesn't
provide any background information, criminal history, whatever it might be.
And so whatever they do here is sort of the
starting point as far as US law enforcement is concerned
as to who they are and what they've done. But
id I will you know, I can't say this more
(17:48):
than enough that id in who people really are is
a huge problem.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Well, and Brad, like we know that MS thirteen gang members,
they a lot of them from what I've seen, have
the distinctive tattoos.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
Is does trende Aragua follow that too.
Speaker 13 (18:07):
Well, they apparently do have some tattoos. The problem is
amy that in some of these tattoos that ICE and
DHS are attributing to this Venezuela gang also have other
meetings that other people have, those particularly from Latin America,
(18:28):
have those tattoos just because they represent something totally non
gang related. So hanging your hat on, oh he's a
gang member because he's got a certain tattoo. You know,
it's kind of like saying circumstantially that somebody committed a crime,
but you don't really have the evidence that they actually did,
even though you think they did, and they may well have,
(18:49):
but you don't have the evidence. Well then what so
I think that's go ahead.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
I'm just curious, like, why would you get a tattoo
that is indicative of a gang if you weren't in
the gang, Like, it isn't that like putting a target.
Speaker 13 (19:02):
On you cultural, culturally, whatever it represents, whether it's a
flower I'm just making this up or whatever it might be,
it means something else to everybody else that's not in
a gang. And I think the problem with this particular
gang is is there may be variations about what is
considered a gang member tattoo for this group. Not to
(19:29):
say they don't have it, but it's it's a big problem.
And like I said, just to hang your hat on
because somebody has a tattoo, I mean, that's not enough
to charge anybody. Yeah, Now, apparently DHS is using it
to id people in this gang, and maybe some of
them got sent to El Salvador because they had tattoos.
(19:50):
There may be more to it than that. I'm being
you know, a bit facetious here, but it's a big problem.
It's a big problem actually, id as I mentioned earlier,
who some of these folks are, and you know, how
connected are they to other gang members and other cities.
This gang's been more described as or are loosely affiliated
(20:12):
versus other gangs that are very well organized as far
as how they move you know, prostitution, drugs, guns, from
you know, one jurisdiction to another in a more much
more organized fashion maybe than this gang does.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Well, they're still here and there's still a huge problem,
and hopefully they'll figure out how to doubt rid of them.
So ABC's crime and Terrorism analysts. So Brad Garrett, thank
you so much for your time.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
You're welcome, right, gurious, talk to you soon.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
It's now far cheaper to rent than to buy a
home in all of California's largest cities.
Speaker 8 (20:46):
A new bank Rate study shows in San Francisco, average
mortgage payments are more than one hundred and ninety percent
higher than rent, with San Jose close behind at one
hundred and eighty six percent. LA and San Diego also
made the top ten with monthly mortgage costs nearly double
that of rent. Experts say high interest rates, taxes, and
insurance continue to push home ownership out of reach, especially
in pricey coastal areas. Nationwide, renting is now thirty eight
(21:09):
percent cheaper than buying on average. Heather Brooker Kafie News.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Southern California, Edison's removing an old power line from the
area where the deadly eaten fire began in January. Cruise
could be seen dismantling the Masis Silmar line as part
of the ongoing investigation. The fire killed eighteen people and
destroyed over nine thousand homes and other buildings. Videos show
flames near Edison equipment, but so far note direct link
has been confirmed. La County is suing Edison over the damages.
(21:38):
Attempted murder and other charges have been filed against a
guy accused of stabbing a brother and sister on the
beach in Santa Monica. The attack happened early Saturday. Ivan
Plankart was arrested Monday. Policers still trying to find a
second guy who was with him. California's getting more electric
school buses despite a federal freeze.
Speaker 14 (21:59):
The state is spent eading five hundred million for one
thousand additional electric school buses and charging infrastructure. Meanwhile, a
federal freeze has stalled plans in other states. In California,
efforts are mostly funded by proceeds from the state Cap
and Trade program, which requires polluters to get permits for
each ton of carbon they release. Aileen Gonzalez Kfine.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
News LA Mayor maass assigned two executive orders to speed
up the rebuilding process after the wildfires. The first allows
architects to self certify that they meet building plans state standards.
The second authorizes the use of AI to use artificial
intelligence to help support city staff in reviewing project plans
(22:41):
against zoning and building codes. South the Southern California Representative
Robert Garcia has visited El Salvador to advocate for Kilmar
Abrego Garcia a Brago. Garcia is deported on what the
White House said was an administrative error, but has since.
The White House is saying he's a member of the
(23:02):
MS thirteen gang. A day after the La Zoo announced
plans to relocate its last two remaining Asian elephants to
a preserve in Tulsa, Oklahoma, City Council and Bob Blueman
Field has introduced emotion calling for the zoo to hold
off on the move until additional options are explored. Animal
rights activists are saying the expanded preserve still too small
(23:24):
for the forty and fifty eight year old elephants.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
At six o five.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
It's handled on the news, so just about a half
an hour away. Trump is signaling a shift in tone
on the Chinese tariffs.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
It's going to weigh in on that. Lots of Star
Wars music today. It's been a while since I've really
been wowed at the Disneyland resort. Like I always love it,
I always.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Love being there, but I was just surprised at what
we got to see when we went to Disneyland, went
out and about last weekend with Nick Pouliochini.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
Morning Nick, Good morning Amy.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
How's it going.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
It's going great. So we went to a galaxy far
far away.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
We did our normal thing, wandered around and finished up
because it was the end of the food and Wine festival,
so we did all that and then we went over
to this to the park to Disneyland and headed over
to Galaxy's Edge.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
And I mean.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
I know that we were talking about this and I
just kept looking at you going wow, wow, Nick.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
That was really great. So what it is.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Is that Disney has two new nighttime shows and it's
four Season of the Force, and that's all because they
do their Star Wars after dark events, but this is
Season of the Force where it's just sort of a
light overlay around the park.
Speaker 4 (24:51):
That's Star Wars leading up to May the fourth.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Right, so you got that back on Galaxy's Edge and
then that all is happening. Plus, so this is kind
of the cool thing. There is a park takeover, as
you said, and it runs not just through May the fourth,
it runs through May eleventh, so it's kind of a
nice as you said, like a light overlay. But those
two shows that we saw specifically are exclusive to Basu
or Galaxy's Edge. One would be a Rise of Fire
(25:18):
of the Rising Moons, which is very unique because it's
using the existing Disneyland Fireworks show that you can see
from anywhere in the park, but when you are off
Galaxy or off planet actually on Bough two at Galaxy's Edge,
it's a completely different show, including a lot of the
music from the Star Wars franchise, so you hear a
lot of those John Williams songs that you're very, very
(25:38):
familiar with. And then the newest thing is you said,
Shadows of Memory a Skywalker Saga is a brand new
projection show that happens on the spires at Batu or
at Galaxies Edd. Really really incredible with holograms and everything else,
something that you've never seen before at Disneyland and very unique.
You really haven't seen any other theme park around the world.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
No, and if you've been to the Disneyland for their
fireworks shows, they've gotten really good at putting the projections
up on the castle and the Matterhorn and that kind
of stuff. So it's along those vein or along that vein.
But this show, it's it's like fifteen or twenty minutes song, right,
and it encompasses the six Star Wars movies, so episode
(26:19):
one all the way up through six, which is a
Return of the Jedi, and it's Luke Skywalker's you know,
it's while he's part of the Star Wars universe, and
it's sort of like a comic book come to life
but not. And it's just so cool with it. And
like I said, I was just absolutely wowed by it
(26:43):
because what they're doing with those projections on these spires
in BA two is just it's so amazing, Like they
turn from rock and then the rock crumbles and it
looks like the rock is actually crumbling on the off
the spires, and then they turn it into waterfalls and
look like water is actually flowing down the side of
these spires. The technology that they've come up with is
(27:07):
so amazing. And then the sound with the music and
they've got narration and it was just fabulous. And that
one happens like at eight thirty. And then as you mentioned,
the fireworks, and the fireworks blew my socks off too,
because I love the fireworks at Disneyland, but this was
a different viewpoint or a different vantage point, and it's
a whole different show. Even the fireworks are exactly the
(27:28):
same as when you're sitting in front of the castle,
but they're different because they're in Galaxy's Edge.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
Correct, And so I mean, if you're familiar with the
existing Disneyland fireworks show, there's a hidden mickey at one
point that's coming up near the end. You can even
see that, but because of the angle being different at
that back of the park, you almost miss it. So
it's a completely new and completely different experience something that
I don't know. It's a very clever use of a
very large theme park to be able to really lean
(27:59):
into something different. But again, like you've already said, using
an existing event, using an existing entertainment piece that Disney
already had built in, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
It was a whole new entertainment show for me. So again,
that's going on through May eleventh at least, Although I
talked to a cast member, I said, how long are
you guys going to do this? And they were like, well,
it's we've had such a great response to it that
we might keep it indefinitely. So we don't know, because
Galaxy's Edge is you know, that's going to be there
indefinitely or forever, right, So yeah, So if you get
(28:30):
next time you go to the park, I would definitely
carve out some time in the evening to head to
Galaxy's Edge to see these two shows, the Shadows of
Memory at Skywalker Saga, and then that's followed a short
time later by the Fireworks show that both just spectacular,
just spectacular.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
And there's still four more nights of Star Wars Night available,
including tonight that is not sold out, So tonight the
twenty fourth, the twenty ninth, the first of May, and
the sixth of May. So those are also four nights
that are exclusive after hours events for Disney Ran after
Dark that you can also check out an even more
intense version of what we've already talked about, something that's
exclusive to that, to the special event, all.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
Right, Usually that sells out, So we don't know if
that means that we've all been, like the super fans
have all been, which gives you an opportunity to go.
But it's a cool, it's a fun thing. And whether
you go to after Dark or you're just going to
the park, seriously, go to Galaxy's Edge and check out
the new shows from that vantage point.
Speaker 4 (29:27):
Absolutely stunning. Thank you, Nick, pauli.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
Okee and you got it.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
No worries, all right, go back to sleep now, I
will promise.
Speaker 4 (29:36):
All right, It is time.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
To get in your business with Bloomberg's Courtney Donaho.
Speaker 8 (29:40):
Good morning, Courtney.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
We got to weight Watchers, another business that's just not
making it.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
Yeah, it's a rough out there. Good morning.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
Well, weight Watchers needs to slim down, not when it
comes to pounds, but with its debt load. Sources tell
us the Die company is preparing to file for bankruptcy
within weeks. Weight Watchers has definitely struggled under one and
a half billion dollars of debt, but they've had lots
of issues keeping customers with this meteoric rise that we've
(30:09):
been seeing with weight loss shots like ozepic for example.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
But they did say that Chapter eleven.
Speaker 5 (30:14):
Wouldn't impact the day to day operations if they filed
for it, okay.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
And have they seen is like are their costs just
going up or are their enrollments just really going down?
Because like, what's it because of the glps and Oprah
is no longer part of it because she's on the GOLP,
so she doesn't need weight Watchers.
Speaker 5 (30:32):
Yeah, they a couple of things are going on, and
they have said it's one of it is just they
are just buried under debt and they just can't get
themselves out of it. They're not getting people on board
for their diet plans because a lot of people are saying, well,
why am I going to take a longer road when
I could do something a lot easier and take one
of those shots. So one of the things though that
(30:55):
weight Watchers, they have made no comment about this, they
still intend to be a publicly traded company. A lot
of companies when they're undergoing problems like this, they end
up trying to go private so they can fix some
of the problems and then come back again to be
a publicly traded company. But they say, you know what,
we're going to stay in the public eye. We're going
to work on some of these issues. But what they
(31:16):
really need to do is get this debt down, and
one of the ways that they need to do it
is by getting more people on board.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
All right, and speaking of weighing, economic concerns are weighing
on airlines.
Speaker 5 (31:29):
Yeah, so it's looking like a tough day for the airlines.
A couple of airlines have come out and their forecasts
out so good. So Southwest said that it's seeing softness
in the number of bookings, especially when it comes to
leisure travel, and the airline says that that's expected to
continue this quarter with flyers dealing with this unpredictable economy
that we've been seeing. So Southwest says it's going to
(31:51):
offer fewer flights and it expected in the second half
of this year because there seems to be a lot
less demand and American airlines. They pulled their financial outlook
for the year due to all the economic worries, the
trade war, the government job cuts, that stapping travel demands.
You're not going to travel when you worried about your job,
when you're worried about what you have to pay coming
up in the next couple of weeks and months, and
(32:13):
you're gonna worry about those high prices. We are going
on a trip and our airfare was stupid expensive. Okay,
Oh yeah, I told you my trip to Florida. Pooh
it was and I even I even flew Spirit and
it was wildly expensive.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
Yike.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
So shop around, book early and before we let you go.
Markets today looking like they're a little bit down.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
Yes, So we have.
Speaker 5 (32:36):
Been flipping between gains and losses all throughout the morning.
The stock rally definitely hitting a speed bump this morning.
So China's demanding that the US revoke all unilateral tariffs,
and they said that there are no talks right now
in reaching a trade deal. So we are seeing SMP
futures a little change down, futures all lower.
Speaker 15 (32:53):
But this comes off.
Speaker 4 (32:54):
Two days of big gains.
Speaker 5 (32:56):
We had two back to back gains because the president
from The President said that he had no intention of
firing Federal Reserve Chair J.
Speaker 4 (33:04):
Powell.
Speaker 5 (33:05):
He was kind of toning down some of the harsh
rhetoric that he had toward the Federal Reserve and also China.
So we saw the dow rise of four hundred and
twenty points yesterday.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
All right, thanks for getting in your business with Bloomberg's
Courtney Donahoe.
Speaker 4 (33:18):
We'll do it again tomorrow at the same time. Thanks
so much. Definitely see you later, all right.

On April thirtieth, Let's say.
Speaker 1 (33:59):
Good morning now to the founder of National Bucket List Day.
Speaker 4 (34:04):
It's Cindy Lee Morning.
Speaker 7 (34:05):
Cindy, Helloha, how are you?
Speaker 4 (34:08):
We're great?
Speaker 1 (34:09):
So I think we all know what a bucket list is,
but how did national I mean, like, what took it
to the level where we said we need to make
a National bucket List Day.
Speaker 7 (34:19):
Well, actually it started at age sixteen. It was Princess
Diana's wedding and I sent her a card and that's
where my whole love for gratitude began because this national holiday,
it all resonates from gratitude. And then I started doing
a lot of stuff that she was doing, giving back,
doing orphanage work, stuff like that. In twenty twenty, I
(34:40):
became an ambassador with National Day Calendar where I share
a national holidays, and just about three years ago, I
became the founder of National bucket List Day. And it's
important to live your death. So we have the day
we're born and the day we passed away. Yet to
live that in between times.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
I love that you have to. It's the dash in between.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
I've seen that like on people's headstones before, and it's
so true. The day you're born is one thing, the
day you leave is another. But it's what you do
in between. And so for National bucket List day, Like,
what are you encouraging.
Speaker 4 (35:11):
People to do?
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Does it have to be huge pie big things like
going to space?
Speaker 7 (35:18):
No, and it's not just travel. So here's some examples.
So you want to give back to your community, learn
to skill, like, for instance, if you want to start
a new business or start a podcast, be a guest
on a radio show. Start creating lists with your friends.
That's actually going to help you keep accountable. And of
course follow national decolendar. There's over sixteen hundred national days
(35:42):
throughout the year, and today it's also National Pigs in
a Blanket Day. Also promote a local restaurant. We have
a lot of local restaurants. I'm based here in Huntington Beach.
I want to do a shout out to Masala Waves,
which is a Nepaal restaurant. There's also a karaokei place
called Yama's. Okay, and then if you like pastrami, then
got a whole bunch of stuff in La as well.
(36:02):
So so many different things to do for today.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Okay, So Cindy, let's talk more about bucket lists though,
because you know, like you said, it could be something
like a small goal. But how do you encourage people
then to get to some of the bigger ones, because
like I'm going, I get to go to Paris.
Speaker 4 (36:19):
I've never been to Paris.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
I don't know that it was a bucket list thing,
but it definitely is like to travel internationally again, I
want to do that more as before I, you know,
before I leave the planet, because it's an amazing planet.
So how do you start like thinking of those things
that you want to do and then making them turning
in into reality.
Speaker 7 (36:39):
It all starts with having that accountability and just finding
people who have the same likes and interest in just
keeping each other accountable and that hey, we should mark
off the Northern Lights, or we should go to Paris,
and it's just a great way to get everybody together
and create life experiences together.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
What are some of the wackiest ones you've you've heard?
Speaker 1 (37:03):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (37:03):
Wow, Well, I want to say that the most scariest
fear bucket list would be jumping down of an airplane
or skydiving. And once you do those two fear bucket lifts,
you pretty much can do anything for three weeks after
doing that, especially people who are afraid of heights. It's
just super crucial to overcome that fear it's going to
(37:26):
help you overcome a lot of different things in your
personal life as well.
Speaker 1 (37:29):
Yeah, okay, so there's a fear bucket list. I think
I'm going to stick to the fun bucket list. National
Bucket Day Found Bucket Lists Day founder Cindy Lee, thanks
so much for your time. Go and live your dreams.

expand and modernize the state's film and television tax credit
program from three hundred and thirty million to seven hundred
and fifty million dollars. She says that will stimulate the
economy and create more jobs.
Speaker 7 (03:55):
What we know is that every other plate in the
world appears to want to attract and take this work
overseas and take this work out of California.
Speaker 8 (04:05):
The bills have a few more hurdles to overcome, including
a vote in the full legislature and a budget review.

and they have this blue purplish color.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
They're actually pretty cool looking.

so busy the Vatican. Let's see, where's the story. Kept
Saint Peter's Basilica open all night because so many people

we're going to keep it open even longer. It looks
like the viewing is going on through Thursday. Okay, while
we wait for Chris, let's get back to some of
the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.

its airspace for all Indian owned or operated airlines, and
to suspending all trade with India. A unique celestial event

On the other side of the Moon, you might catch
a glimpse of Saturn, and as the sun rises and
the sky brightens, it'll become clearer, creating something technically known
in the scientific community as the smiley face planet alignment.

Ooh, the smiley place face planet. I have never heard
of that. The smiley face planet alignments. Preston says, you
might need to turn your head a little sideways and squint,

at the Pentagon.
Speaker 9 (10:47):

chimpanzees enjoy a good happy hour.
Speaker 12 (11:22):
New video recorded by scientists in West Africa shows wild
chimps eating fermented breadfruit together. It's the first time the
shared behavior has been caught on film. Researchers suggest using
the alcohol for social bonding could explain why humans evolved
the ability to metabolize alcohol. The findings were published Monday
in the journal Current Biology. And while the chimps were
eating fermented breadfruit together, they weren't observed making a toast.

matter of hours. Police say the first one was hit
in Sherman Oaks shortly after four am yesterday. Not kidding
when I said hit. They crashed a Hyundai a Lantra
into the store. A group of at least four people
in dark clothing, grabbed their loot and took off. A
second break in happened less than an hour later in
Granada Hills, and then a third shop was hit in
(13:01):
Gnada Hills at about six thirty am. The La City
Council's voted eleven to two in favor of expanding a
policy that prohibits homeless people from sleeping in public spaces.
The policy which makes it ilegal to sit lie down
or keep belongings in some areas of the city's been
expanded to a Superior Street and Deering Avenue in Chatsworth.
(13:23):
California's economy has surpassed Japan. It's now the fourth largest
in the world. Governor Newsom says the Interstate Monetary Fund
and the US Bureau of Economic Analysis puts the state's
GDP above four trillion dollars. The US, China, and Germany
have the top three economies in the world.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
It is five twenty two.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Let's say good morning to our friend, terror and crime
analyst for ABC, Brad Garrett.
Speaker 13 (13:50):
Morning Brad, Good morning Amy.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Okay, so we've heard a lot lately about this vicious
gang Trende Arragua, and for a while it took me,
well it took me a while to figure out how
to say it, but now I'm it just rolls off
your tongue. We don't know much about them, so can
you tell us tell us more about who Trendy Arugua is.
Speaker 13 (14:13):
So it's a Venezuelan gang, excuse me, that was originally
started in a prison in northeast Venezuela. And apparently at
the time when this gang was developing, they controlled the prison,
and it's been reported that inside this prison was a nightclub,
a bank and if you can imagine that, and apparently
(14:39):
got raided at some point a number of people killed
the guy escape that started this gang. Excuse me, but
what happened, Tomi, is that in the last decade a
number of people have fled Venezuela and they have gone
to various parts of the world. It's like seven point
seven million, and they think that's an underestimate. Three quarters
(15:02):
of a million thereabouts came to the United States, and
certainly eight eight percentage of those I'm going to say
a low percentage joined this gang or came and was
already in this gang and are now in several states
around the country.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
All right, And okay, so you said it's a low
percentage because when you said seven point seven million Venezuelans, well, first,
that's a huge amount of people coming from Venezuela up here,
and they that's all illegal immigration.
Speaker 13 (15:36):
Yeah, so let's be clear, seven point seven million fled
the country. It's probably a bigger number, but perhaps three
quarters of a million or thereabouts came here. Oh okay,
these things, Amy are all estimates, because who knows, right,
I mean, people are here illegally. Ice doesn't know who
(15:56):
they are, which also creates a year huge problem obviously
in id them to figure out are they part of
this gang or are they just here? And you know,
that's obviously the big debate now with President Trump's movement
of folks that allegedly belong to this gang to L.
(16:16):
Salvador and I think also to Guantanamo Bay. But you know,
the you know, the one concern about people like me
who study this stuff is that are they a problem?
Sure they are a problem. Are they the biggest gang
problem in the US? The answers, No, there are other
gangs that are far bigger, more organized.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
You know, your.
Speaker 13 (16:40):
City in particular is sort of a hub for gangs, right,
I mean it always has been MS thirteen, you know,
between the Long Beach in Los Angeles, there's a lot
of gangs that started here and are continuing to grow.
So gangs are just a big problem in the US.
There's thirty three thousand estimated number of gangs now. Granted,
a vast majority of those are local, controlling certain communities
(17:05):
or certain streets in a given city. And I'm sure
you have some of those. Two in La besides bigger gangs,
they're very difficult for law enforcement to investigate, to figure
out actually who is part of this gang, what is
their real name? And Venezuelan's in particular, the Venezuelan government
(17:26):
doesn't communicate with the US about who they are, doesn't
provide any background information, criminal history, whatever it might be.
And so whatever they do here is sort of the
starting point as far as US law enforcement is concerned
as to who they are and what they've done. But
id I will you know, I can't say this more
(17:48):
than enough that id in who people really are is
a huge problem.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Well, and Brad, like we know that MS thirteen gang members,
they a lot of them from what I've seen, have
the distinctive tattoos.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
Is does trende Aragua follow that too.
Speaker 13 (18:07):
Well, they apparently do have some tattoos. The problem is
amy that in some of these tattoos that ICE and
DHS are attributing to this Venezuela gang also have other
meetings that other people have, those particularly from Latin America,
(18:28):
have those tattoos just because they represent something totally non
gang related. So hanging your hat on, oh he's a
gang member because he's got a certain tattoo. You know,
it's kind of like saying circumstantially that somebody committed a crime,
but you don't really have the evidence that they actually did,
even though you think they did, and they may well have,
(18:49):
but you don't have the evidence. Well then what so
I think that's go ahead.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
I'm just curious, like, why would you get a tattoo
that is indicative of a gang if you weren't in
the gang, Like, it isn't that like putting a target.
Speaker 13 (19:02):
On you cultural, culturally, whatever it represents, whether it's a
flower I'm just making this up or whatever it might be,
it means something else to everybody else that's not in
a gang. And I think the problem with this particular
gang is is there may be variations about what is
considered a gang member tattoo for this group. Not to
(19:29):
say they don't have it, but it's it's a big problem.
And like I said, just to hang your hat on
because somebody has a tattoo, I mean, that's not enough
to charge anybody. Yeah, Now, apparently DHS is using it
to id people in this gang, and maybe some of
them got sent to El Salvador because they had tattoos.
(19:50):
There may be more to it than that. I'm being
you know, a bit facetious here, but it's a big problem.
It's a big problem actually, id as I mentioned earlier,
who some of these folks are, and you know, how
connected are they to other gang members and other cities.
This gang's been more described as or are loosely affiliated
(20:12):
versus other gangs that are very well organized as far
as how they move you know, prostitution, drugs, guns, from
you know, one jurisdiction to another in a more much
more organized fashion maybe than this gang does.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Well, they're still here and there's still a huge problem,
and hopefully they'll figure out how to doubt rid of them.
So ABC's crime and Terrorism analysts. So Brad Garrett, thank
you so much for your time.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
You're welcome, right, gurious, talk to you soon.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
It's now far cheaper to rent than to buy a
home in all of California's largest cities.
Speaker 8 (20:46):
A new bank Rate study shows in San Francisco, average
mortgage payments are more than one hundred and ninety percent
higher than rent, with San Jose close behind at one
hundred and eighty six percent. LA and San Diego also
made the top ten with monthly mortgage costs nearly double
that of rent. Experts say high interest rates, taxes, and
insurance continue to push home ownership out of reach, especially
in pricey coastal areas. Nationwide, renting is now thirty eight
(21:09):
percent cheaper than buying on average. Heather Brooker Kafie News.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Southern California, Edison's removing an old power line from the
area where the deadly eaten fire began in January. Cruise
could be seen dismantling the Masis Silmar line as part
of the ongoing investigation. The fire killed eighteen people and
destroyed over nine thousand homes and other buildings. Videos show
flames near Edison equipment, but so far note direct link
has been confirmed. La County is suing Edison over the damages.
(21:38):
Attempted murder and other charges have been filed against a
guy accused of stabbing a brother and sister on the
beach in Santa Monica. The attack happened early Saturday. Ivan
Plankart was arrested Monday. Policers still trying to find a
second guy who was with him. California's getting more electric
school buses despite a federal freeze.
Speaker 14 (21:59):
The state is spent eading five hundred million for one
thousand additional electric school buses and charging infrastructure. Meanwhile, a
federal freeze has stalled plans in other states. In California,
efforts are mostly funded by proceeds from the state Cap
and Trade program, which requires polluters to get permits for
each ton of carbon they release. Aileen Gonzalez Kfine.

News LA Mayor maass assigned two executive orders to speed
up the rebuilding process after the wildfires. The first allows
architects to self certify that they meet building plans state standards.
The second authorizes the use of AI to use artificial
intelligence to help support city staff in reviewing project plans
(22:41):
against zoning and building codes. South the Southern California Representative
Robert Garcia has visited El Salvador to advocate for Kilmar
Abrego Garcia a Brago. Garcia is deported on what the
White House said was an administrative error, but has since.
The White House is saying he's a member of the
(23:02):
MS thirteen gang. A day after the La Zoo announced
plans to relocate its last two remaining Asian elephants to
a preserve in Tulsa, Oklahoma, City Council and Bob Blueman
Field has introduced emotion calling for the zoo to hold
off on the move until additional options are explored. Animal
rights activists are saying the expanded preserve still too small
(23:24):
for the forty and fifty eight year old elephants.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
At six o five.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
It's handled on the news, so just about a half
an hour away. Trump is signaling a shift in tone
on the Chinese tariffs.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
It's going to weigh in on that. Lots of Star
Wars music today. It's been a while since I've really
been wowed at the Disneyland resort. Like I always love it,
I always.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Love being there, but I was just surprised at what
we got to see when we went to Disneyland, went
out and about last weekend with Nick Pouliochini.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
Morning Nick, Good morning Amy.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
How's it going.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
It's going great. So we went to a galaxy far
far away.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
We did our normal thing, wandered around and finished up
because it was the end of the food and Wine festival,
so we did all that and then we went over
to this to the park to Disneyland and headed over
to Galaxy's Edge.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
And I mean.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
I know that we were talking about this and I
just kept looking at you going wow, wow, Nick.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
That was really great. So what it is.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Is that Disney has two new nighttime shows and it's
four Season of the Force, and that's all because they
do their Star Wars after dark events, but this is
Season of the Force where it's just sort of a
light overlay around the park.
Speaker 4 (24:51):
That's Star Wars leading up to May the fourth.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Right, so you got that back on Galaxy's Edge and
then that all is happening. Plus, so this is kind
of the cool thing. There is a park takeover, as
you said, and it runs not just through May the fourth,
it runs through May eleventh, so it's kind of a
nice as you said, like a light overlay. But those
two shows that we saw specifically are exclusive to Basu
or Galaxy's Edge. One would be a Rise of Fire
(25:18):
of the Rising Moons, which is very unique because it's
using the existing Disneyland Fireworks show that you can see
from anywhere in the park, but when you are off
Galaxy or off planet actually on Bough two at Galaxy's Edge,
it's a completely different show, including a lot of the
music from the Star Wars franchise, so you hear a
lot of those John Williams songs that you're very, very
(25:38):
familiar with. And then the newest thing is you said,
Shadows of Memory a Skywalker Saga is a brand new
projection show that happens on the spires at Batu or
at Galaxies Edd. Really really incredible with holograms and everything else,
something that you've never seen before at Disneyland and very unique.
You really haven't seen any other theme park around the world.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
No, and if you've been to the Disneyland for their
fireworks shows, they've gotten really good at putting the projections
up on the castle and the Matterhorn and that kind
of stuff. So it's along those vein or along that vein.
But this show, it's it's like fifteen or twenty minutes song, right,
and it encompasses the six Star Wars movies, so episode
(26:19):
one all the way up through six, which is a
Return of the Jedi, and it's Luke Skywalker's you know,
it's while he's part of the Star Wars universe, and
it's sort of like a comic book come to life
but not. And it's just so cool with it. And
like I said, I was just absolutely wowed by it
(26:43):
because what they're doing with those projections on these spires
in BA two is just it's so amazing, Like they
turn from rock and then the rock crumbles and it
looks like the rock is actually crumbling on the off
the spires, and then they turn it into waterfalls and
look like water is actually flowing down the side of
these spires. The technology that they've come up with is
(27:07):
so amazing. And then the sound with the music and
they've got narration and it was just fabulous. And that
one happens like at eight thirty. And then as you mentioned,
the fireworks, and the fireworks blew my socks off too,
because I love the fireworks at Disneyland, but this was
a different viewpoint or a different vantage point, and it's
a whole different show. Even the fireworks are exactly the
(27:28):
same as when you're sitting in front of the castle,
but they're different because they're in Galaxy's Edge.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
Correct, And so I mean, if you're familiar with the
existing Disneyland fireworks show, there's a hidden mickey at one
point that's coming up near the end. You can even
see that, but because of the angle being different at
that back of the park, you almost miss it. So
it's a completely new and completely different experience something that
I don't know. It's a very clever use of a
very large theme park to be able to really lean
(27:59):
into something different. But again, like you've already said, using
an existing event, using an existing entertainment piece that Disney
already had built in, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
It was a whole new entertainment show for me. So again,
that's going on through May eleventh at least, Although I
talked to a cast member, I said, how long are
you guys going to do this? And they were like, well,
it's we've had such a great response to it that
we might keep it indefinitely. So we don't know, because
Galaxy's Edge is you know, that's going to be there
indefinitely or forever, right, So yeah, So if you get
(28:30):
next time you go to the park, I would definitely
carve out some time in the evening to head to
Galaxy's Edge to see these two shows, the Shadows of
Memory at Skywalker Saga, and then that's followed a short
time later by the Fireworks show that both just spectacular,
just spectacular.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
And there's still four more nights of Star Wars Night available,
including tonight that is not sold out, So tonight the
twenty fourth, the twenty ninth, the first of May, and
the sixth of May. So those are also four nights
that are exclusive after hours events for Disney Ran after
Dark that you can also check out an even more
intense version of what we've already talked about, something that's
exclusive to that, to the special event, all.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
Right, Usually that sells out, So we don't know if
that means that we've all been, like the super fans
have all been, which gives you an opportunity to go.
But it's a cool, it's a fun thing. And whether
you go to after Dark or you're just going to
the park, seriously, go to Galaxy's Edge and check out
the new shows from that vantage point.
Speaker 4 (29:27):
Absolutely stunning. Thank you, Nick, pauli.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
Okee and you got it.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
No worries, all right, go back to sleep now, I
will promise.
Speaker 4 (29:36):
All right, It is time.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
To get in your business with Bloomberg's Courtney Donaho.
Speaker 8 (29:40):
Good morning, Courtney.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
We got to weight Watchers, another business that's just not
making it.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
Yeah, it's a rough out there. Good morning.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
Well, weight Watchers needs to slim down, not when it
comes to pounds, but with its debt load. Sources tell
us the Die company is preparing to file for bankruptcy
within weeks. Weight Watchers has definitely struggled under one and
a half billion dollars of debt, but they've had lots
of issues keeping customers with this meteoric rise that we've
(30:09):
been seeing with weight loss shots like ozepic for example.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
But they did say that Chapter eleven.
Speaker 5 (30:14):
Wouldn't impact the day to day operations if they filed
for it, okay.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
And have they seen is like are their costs just
going up or are their enrollments just really going down?
Because like, what's it because of the glps and Oprah
is no longer part of it because she's on the GOLP,
so she doesn't need weight Watchers.
Speaker 5 (30:32):
Yeah, they a couple of things are going on, and
they have said it's one of it is just they
are just buried under debt and they just can't get
themselves out of it. They're not getting people on board
for their diet plans because a lot of people are saying, well,
why am I going to take a longer road when
I could do something a lot easier and take one
of those shots. So one of the things though that
(30:55):
weight Watchers, they have made no comment about this, they
still intend to be a publicly traded company. A lot
of companies when they're undergoing problems like this, they end
up trying to go private so they can fix some
of the problems and then come back again to be
a publicly traded company. But they say, you know what,
we're going to stay in the public eye. We're going
to work on some of these issues. But what they
(31:16):
really need to do is get this debt down, and
one of the ways that they need to do it
is by getting more people on board.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
All right, and speaking of weighing, economic concerns are weighing
on airlines.
Speaker 5 (31:29):
Yeah, so it's looking like a tough day for the airlines.
A couple of airlines have come out and their forecasts
out so good. So Southwest said that it's seeing softness
in the number of bookings, especially when it comes to
leisure travel, and the airline says that that's expected to
continue this quarter with flyers dealing with this unpredictable economy
that we've been seeing. So Southwest says it's going to
(31:51):
offer fewer flights and it expected in the second half
of this year because there seems to be a lot
less demand and American airlines. They pulled their financial outlook
for the year due to all the economic worries, the
trade war, the government job cuts, that stapping travel demands.
You're not going to travel when you worried about your job,
when you're worried about what you have to pay coming
up in the next couple of weeks and months, and
(32:13):
you're gonna worry about those high prices. We are going
on a trip and our airfare was stupid expensive. Okay,
Oh yeah, I told you my trip to Florida. Pooh
it was and I even I even flew Spirit and
it was wildly expensive.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
Yike.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
So shop around, book early and before we let you go.
Markets today looking like they're a little bit down.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
Yes, So we have.
Speaker 5 (32:36):
Been flipping between gains and losses all throughout the morning.
The stock rally definitely hitting a speed bump this morning.
So China's demanding that the US revoke all unilateral tariffs,
and they said that there are no talks right now
in reaching a trade deal. So we are seeing SMP
futures a little change down, futures all lower.
Speaker 15 (32:53):
But this comes off.
Speaker 4 (32:54):
Two days of big gains.
Speaker 5 (32:56):
We had two back to back gains because the president
from The President said that he had no intention of
firing Federal Reserve Chair J.
Speaker 4 (33:04):
Powell.
Speaker 5 (33:05):
He was kind of toning down some of the harsh
rhetoric that he had toward the Federal Reserve and also China.
So we saw the dow rise of four hundred and
twenty points yesterday.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
All right, thanks for getting in your business with Bloomberg's
Courtney Donahoe.
Speaker 4 (33:18):
We'll do it again tomorrow at the same time. Thanks
so much. Definitely see you later, all right.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
Governor Newsom says the state's going to turn over a
convicted killer who's being released from prison in California early
to ICE agents. President Trump assigned seven executive orders centered
on education. They include introducing a new college accreditation process,
increasing empowerment to HBCUs, and improving education for AI technology.
(33:42):
Tennis legend Andre Agassi is about to make his pro
debut in another racket sport. He's playing in the US
Open Pickleball Championships.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
I love this.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
He's going to face number one ranked player in the sport,
eighteen year old Anna Lee Waters.
Speaker 4 (33:57):
On April thirtieth, Let's say.
Speaker 1 (33:59):
Good morning now to the founder of National Bucket List Day.
Speaker 4 (34:04):
It's Cindy Lee Morning.
Speaker 7 (34:05):
Cindy, Helloha, how are you?
Speaker 4 (34:08):
We're great?
Speaker 1 (34:09):
So I think we all know what a bucket list is,
but how did national I mean, like, what took it
to the level where we said we need to make
a National bucket List Day.
Speaker 7 (34:19):
Well, actually it started at age sixteen. It was Princess
Diana's wedding and I sent her a card and that's
where my whole love for gratitude began because this national holiday,
it all resonates from gratitude. And then I started doing
a lot of stuff that she was doing, giving back,
doing orphanage work, stuff like that. In twenty twenty, I
(34:40):
became an ambassador with National Day Calendar where I share
a national holidays, and just about three years ago, I
became the founder of National bucket List Day. And it's
important to live your death. So we have the day
we're born and the day we passed away. Yet to
live that in between times.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
I love that you have to. It's the dash in between.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
I've seen that like on people's headstones before, and it's
so true. The day you're born is one thing, the
day you leave is another. But it's what you do
in between. And so for National bucket List day, Like,
what are you encouraging.
Speaker 4 (35:11):
People to do?
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Does it have to be huge pie big things like
going to space?
Speaker 7 (35:18):
No, and it's not just travel. So here's some examples.
So you want to give back to your community, learn
to skill, like, for instance, if you want to start
a new business or start a podcast, be a guest
on a radio show. Start creating lists with your friends.
That's actually going to help you keep accountable. And of
course follow national decolendar. There's over sixteen hundred national days
(35:42):
throughout the year, and today it's also National Pigs in
a Blanket Day. Also promote a local restaurant. We have
a lot of local restaurants. I'm based here in Huntington Beach.
I want to do a shout out to Masala Waves,
which is a Nepaal restaurant. There's also a karaokei place
called Yama's. Okay, and then if you like pastrami, then
got a whole bunch of stuff in La as well.
(36:02):
So so many different things to do for today.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Okay, So Cindy, let's talk more about bucket lists though,
because you know, like you said, it could be something
like a small goal. But how do you encourage people
then to get to some of the bigger ones, because
like I'm going, I get to go to Paris.
Speaker 4 (36:19):
I've never been to Paris.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
I don't know that it was a bucket list thing,
but it definitely is like to travel internationally again, I
want to do that more as before I, you know,
before I leave the planet, because it's an amazing planet.
So how do you start like thinking of those things
that you want to do and then making them turning
in into reality.
Speaker 7 (36:39):
It all starts with having that accountability and just finding
people who have the same likes and interest in just
keeping each other accountable and that hey, we should mark
off the Northern Lights, or we should go to Paris,
and it's just a great way to get everybody together
and create life experiences together.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
What are some of the wackiest ones you've you've heard?
Speaker 1 (37:03):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (37:03):
Wow, Well, I want to say that the most scariest
fear bucket list would be jumping down of an airplane
or skydiving. And once you do those two fear bucket lifts,
you pretty much can do anything for three weeks after
doing that, especially people who are afraid of heights. It's
just super crucial to overcome that fear it's going to
(37:26):
help you overcome a lot of different things in your
personal life as well.
Speaker 1 (37:29):
Yeah, okay, so there's a fear bucket list. I think
I'm going to stick to the fun bucket list. National
Bucket Day Found Bucket Lists Day founder Cindy Lee, thanks
so much for your time. Go and live your dreams.
It's a good thing to do, right, Thank you. All right,
take care. Let's get back to some of the stories
coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. The
Vatican has kept Saint Peter's Basilica open all night as
(37:51):
thousands of mourners line up to say goodbye to Pope Francis.
It was expected to stay open until midnight.
Speaker 15 (37:55):
But more than fifty thousand from all walks of life
under realm of world waiting for in massive lines from
morning till deep into the night. The Vatican keeping church
doors open till five point thirty in the morning to
allow as many people as possible.
Speaker 1 (38:08):
In ABC's James Longman says the church was closed for
just an hour and then reopened. The funeral for Pope
Francis is going to be held on Saturday. The cardinals
are meeting at the Vatican again this morning to talk
about choosing a new pope. The city of La wants
drivers to slow down in school zone. City council committees
advanced a proposal to lower speed limits to fifteen miles
(38:29):
per hour on three hundred and forty three streets near
about two hundred schools in the city. The full council
will need to sign off on the plan, but the
new speed limit signs could be installed in the next
six to ten weeks if approved. Police in northern California,
you're warning about a rise in car thefts using technology
