You're listening to camp I am six forty the Bill Handles show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. You know, you're just a very fun guy. I am a fun guy. I'm just fuzzy. I am yeah, I just you know not only I've often said this. The glass is always half empty in my life with a hole in the bottom, so water is pouring out the bottom. I think she meant fun guy, right, but it's like
a mold. And now a handle on the news, Ladies and gentlemen, here's Bill Handle and Morning Bunday. Morning's June twenty four, and we are almost over with June. Summer has hit, I mean with a vengeance, and it is no fun. Although it's not as bad as it is the rest of the country. The rest of the country is kind of crazy,
to say the least. There was an interview I saw in the news last night where there was some lady visiting from Las Vegas and she was in Washington, D C. And she was going to go visit Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Memorial and she was in a park in the shade and she wasn't moving. She said, I know one hundred and ten degrees and I live in Las Vegas. It's nothing compared to this. The humidity, the Schwitz,
it's unbelievable over there. Oh real quickly, Heather, let me ask you, Heather Brooker, who is with us next couple of days and comes back with a Wednesday? I mean, do we know and Amy comes back on Wednesday? Right? Yes? Okay, so they come back here? What when do you come back? Never? Never? But thank you for bringing that up, Heather. I'm assuming you've been following up on weather news. How humid is it today? It's very humid. It's a Schmitz. It's
a Schwitz, all right, kono. So we do not have to argue or we don't have to play the drop that it's hot but it's not. But that's not the case. It is a schwitzt and that is correct. And there are descriptions of what the day is going to be like, do we have those? Let me see it. It's not just a Schwitz. It's schmitz fest. Yeah, there are others too, especially Schitz that will tell me what that is. It's a Schwitz. That's when you go,
that's when you're swimming in your shorts. I mean, it is right yesterday I mean it was hell degrees, but it was it was nice. Actually, I thought, yes, it was kind of nice. It was beautiful once you got till about five thirty years. You know, I just this, you know what this morning? I mean right now, I walked in. I have the window open in the studio here and I'm broadcasting it home from today today, and it is I gotta tell you, window open.
What is it? Just after six o'clock in the morning, and uh, it's it's a Schwitz. Matter of fact, it's not just a Schwitz. It's Schwitzmageddon. Let me turn the fan on. I'll be When I came in at three this morning, it was very balmy. I was a little I was surprised. Yeah, well, I wouldn't use the word balmy. Hold on, man, I'm going to turn the fan on. Oh yeah, oh yeah, this is a real time. This is I like your shorts. It's not just a Schwitz. It's Schwitz Apocalypse. My favorite thing
is how you put yourself ahead of the listener. It just is uh, it just shows your priorities. It does. And by the way, Heather, when I'm broadcasting from home, I have a shirt on just for the benefit of everybody here. I'm in my sports shorts and sometimes I'm commando. I go commando. So I mean, do you say vorts you know sports
Schwitz. Well, that's one of the benefits of radio, I suppose, and just getting Yeah, if you're in commando, we can I have the hand the fan on high, and I get the air going past the score, the scroat, and it is it's very pleasant. Okay, I have the fan on two, but for different reasons, because I'm a middle aged woman and we get hot. Yeah, yeah, you get these hot you get the hot all right. So anyways, Heather is with us a couple of days. Neil, good morning, Good morning Bill, and Cono,
good morning Gross and and good morning morning Bill. See there we go. We've started. See it's almost like every day is Friday. Now have you noticed, as it should be? Yeah, as it very well should be. All Right, guys, we've got plenty of news to cover on this Monday morning, June twenty four. Let's do it a handle on the news with Heather and Neil and me leave Storry. Yeah, it's definitely sits a rama today. Now it's going to be I don't know how crazy it is.
Heather, just show throw out some degrees. What we're going to hear six? You can give us where it is, but thank you for that. Sorry. Yeah, that's like doing baseball scores eight to two, five to three. I get that those are nice scores in the Antelope Valley. We've got it's supposed to be nice in the central coast, but we don't care about them. Santa Clarita, San Fernandos, and Gabriel Valleys. There is a heat advisory in effect in all those areas because it is going to
be brutally hot today. Yeah, it's going to be a switch today. We have to have that drop by the way, kno in and out those various drops because it is insane and unfortunately, I think people are gonna die. And that's no joke. Can you say that without laughing? No? I can't. But yeah, that was weird. Okay, and listen is I looked at the story and I'm going come on, really? So the National Weather Service has issued a statement of course very warm conditions will continue through
Thursday. If this is very warm? What is hot to these people? I don't know the answer to that, but let me put it this way. Very warm is an understatement. Okay, speaking of understatements, we should put a thermometer in your pants and we can have scroat watch. Oh no, we can find out like what there you go, we see. We take it to what I've had in those areas and it's they're very, very
accurate, you know that. So Heather, if you can add that to the list the hot zips that we are talking about, the heat watch is in effect. All right, let's move on Bill's pants. All right, father, this is a terrible transition from these the story, but there has been a father of four that was shot and killed on the Metro station, on a metro train. Specifically, it happened Friday night, thirty eight years
one. Garcia. He got into an argument apparently with a group on the Metro elne at Losiennega and Jefferson. The argument continued and they all gone on the train and that's when police say one of the suspects shot Garcia in the head and he was pronounced dead. There another one on the metro training. At what point do people simply stop going on the metro train unless you have physically impossible, no possible way to get any place else and or you're homeless.
I think we're there. I think the people that are riding the train now have to and riding public transit have to. And it's the worst case scenario. So the ads that you see from the authorities, from the government saying ride the train, ride public transport, it'll help the environment. Does anybody, even even environmentalists? Is that off the table now because you die when you get on a metro? Yeah, yeah, unless it's about the nutrients the body give the earth when you bury it, says could be.
But I will tell you this, it's very simple. Government has two jobs, protect and fill potholes. Good point, good point. Neither of them are done here in Los Angeles. All right, gav is going to take the mic. You've got California residents being able to watch Governor gab Newsom State of the State address online this week. He continues to do these, you
know, tries to hip it up or change it. I guess. So this pre recorded speech well premiere simultaneously across the office's social media channels and on the website. If you remember, last year he didn't give a State of the State address. He sent a letter out. Yeah, you can do that. Historically, the state of the state, and state of the Union and state of the city is really very interesting. It all stems from the US Constitution, where the president must give a state of the Union, not
an address, but a state meant about the state of the Union. By the way, the Constitution says from time to time. It doesn't say annually. Oh but the California Constant. Yeah, the California Constitution says annually. But it doesn't say how you can do a letter. You can literally do two words, were great, and there's the state of the Union. So or in the state is a guy who doesn't doesn't mind cameras. It's always a curiosity. By the way, he's not he's just delivering it via the
internet. On this he's just because the state of the state sucks, all right, Oh no, no, not to no, please, not to the governor. Not come on, and every president, we could be in the middle of a nuclear apocalypse and you're here going to Biden is going to say, the state of the Union is strong, and look what I did, and look how terrific I am. But here's what we have to do. Come on. So, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin net Yahoo says that the
intense phase of the war with Hamas is about to end. However, he's still vowing that he's going to continue operating in Gaza until Hamas is eliminated. Yeah, it's not stopping, it's going on. How do you stop the war and still destroy Hamas without the war the final phase? I don't even know what that means anymore. I mean, are they just going for full apocalyptic destruction over there like that? Yeah, Well, it's as far as
Hamas is concerned. Yeah, Natanyahu in the far right wing, it's at the war Cabinet, which is all really hardliners, those that are left, and yeah, they're saying we're not going we're not taking civilian targets out, but of course they are because Hamas is in the civilian targets. And so there's no good answer here at all. And Hamas will never cave as far as its own power is concerned. It'll never be able to Israelis will never
be able to force comastases functioning. So they'll cut some kind of a deal, but there won't be much left the Gaza by the time this is over. Yeah, who is slowly becoming the Opera of the Middle East. You get a ball, and you get a ball, You get a ball. Yeah, all right. So gunman opened fire on places of worship, into cities, among other targets of Russia's southernmost Augistan providence on Sunday, killing at least fifteen police officers for civilians, including an Orthodox priest. Yeah, this
is not the say it's coordinated, co ordinating. This is not Ukraine versus Russia. These are fanatical Muslims, terrorists versus everybody. And they happen to be in Russia. I mean, this province happens to have a lot of Muslims in it. Isn't this the second of attack of its kind recently? It wasn't there? Oh, there was a huge one. I mean there was one if you remember the video in that Yes it was in that arena where one hundred and fifty seven people were killed. Then you can it's a
few months ago, right, Yeah, it was crazy. So and I think Isis took credit for that one. This ice is k or whatever, Yeah, yeah, something like that. It's just the whole world has problems with that one. All right, Do we want to play the baby Shark music here? Kono? No? All right? Shark Sightings closing Orange County Beaches. Surfside Beach and Seal Beach was closed on Saturday after shark was spotted. Seal Beach Police Department said that they're investigating. Yeah, but it was
two hours. Yeah, it was two hours. I mean, you know, a shark didn't it wouldn't even have time to actually fully eat someone in two hours. Well, fortunately they didn't, so they're they're all clear. The beach is back open. Nobody was hurt, so that's good news. Right. So, just it's kind of boring. Be aware of your surroundings in the ocean people, How do you do that? For shark is swimming underneath you? Are you aware of your surroundings and you I am because I'm
sitting on the beach. I'm not getting exact and you can see. Yeah, when do you know there's a shark in the water When someone next to you gets eaten or when your leg comes off. Well, if you've seen Jaws, it's when the screaming begins and people start being pulled underwater. But you think about it, what do they eat seals? Where was this? Yeah? Where did this take place? Beach? No? In? Where beach in? So that's the equivalent of handle swimming around a place called Hamburger
or pizza Beach. Yeah? Wait, does that beach exist? Because I want to go to there. I know, sign me up for a cabana. All right. A summer carnival in Los Angeles turned deadly. Yet teen fatally stabs another team, and this particular carnival was sponsored by the LA Police Department. Just happened to be But it sounds like a sixteen year old and fifteen year old boy were involved. One of them was stabbed death. I mean, are we getting more of these or they're just we just pick and
choose. That's what makes us a little bit of a spin because otherwise, you know, this is nothing of a story because we get these every day. You get shootings every day, so they're getting younger too. How many mass shootings were there over the last few days, I don't know, several of them around the country. It's yeah, now it's getting now. The question is what makes a story a story? And you're right. The only reason that this is a story, Neil, it was at an LAPD event
where someone gets stabbed. There's the story, not that someone got stabbed. Well, we're starting to get these stories now because the difference is that they weren't on a metro train. Yes, yeah, good point. Solid point. Protesters are facing multiple charges after delaying travelers. Sixth Climate protesters stormed the eighteenth Green at the PGA while leaders were lining up for their putts, lining up their puts rather for the final hole of the PGA Tours Travelers Championship yesterday.
Protesters they came in from all directions around the green and waved smoke bombs that left white and red residue on the putt and green. Before Scotti, Scheffler and crew finished their rounds, they had t shirts with the words no golf on a dead planet, just mean crazy. First of all, we could do a lot with their quote lining up for their puts spelled putz. That's one. The second point here is this is Connecticut. You know these
guys were released after posting five thousand dollars in bail. If there were if this were to happen in Los Angeles, do you think anybody would get tagged with a five thousand dollars bail? There would be no bail, there would be nothing. There would be there coming in and walking right out of the gas out of the police station. Stopping only long enough to do a fingerprint and take a photo, and we're sorry for the inconvenience, or we'll try
to move this as quickly as possible. That's what you get in Los Angeles. These guys, hopefully are going to get nailed for this first degree criminal mischief, first degree criminal trespass, and breach of peace. And I'd like them to see six months in jail. Saying you want to protest, and you want to get in the way of people's liberty and life and the ability to go to a golf tournament, you pay for it. Okay, So
this is what we do. We get the whole gang here for the morning show, We invite listeners out, and we start protesting and blocking Trader Joe's and vegan restaurants, and see how these protesters like it. I'd like it. Oh, Trader Joe's is great. Don't do that with Trader Jose.
No, I'm just saying, oh, Kagan restaurants, absolutely, vegan restaurants and Petuli oil factories, and will just block them and then they you don't have to worry about deodorant factories because they don't wear it, but you know, block something they like yeah, it's like these protests around the country in which the Palestinian pro Palestinian protesters are blocking entrance to their students, they're defacing
the buildings, they're taking over various parts of the university, and everybody's pissed off. The university is not quote that they're not talking to them. They're not negotiating. You refuse to negotiate with us. Negotiate about what. Explain to me where WIT's they're to negotiate. You should only go up three feet in terms of your tagging, and not a full six feet. What are you doing? That's how crazy it has become good for Connecticut. I hope
these guys. I hope these guys literally get six months at least and by court order sodomized by Bubba several times a day. That'll straighten them out. Can you order that legal? I think, well depends. Heads are what you're gonna need. Yeah, I would, I mean I wouldn't order that. Saudi Arabia said just yesterday that more than thirteen hundred people have died on this year's Hajj pilgrimage, and breaking it down, eighty three percent of those
who died were what they referred to as unauthorized to perform the hajj. That it means they were walking long distances under direct sunlight. But they're severely elderly or several elderly people, chronically ill individuals. These are the people that are dying during this. Yeah. Also it's one hundred and twenty degrees out there. Now have you seen the video of what happens at the hodj? This
is in Mecca. You've got the big building in the center, this Kaba or Kaba, and there's a zone that is at the corner of it that the pilgrims people Muslims they go to the Hajj are supposed to kiss, but you can't because there are hundreds of thousands of people there, so it's not mandatory to kiss the stone. It's been going on for millennia. And they
go counterclockwise. The entire crowd of three hundred thousand people that you see there, and they have to circle it seven times, and everybody's dressed in white. And this is the holiest spot in all of Islam. And you're supposed to Muslims if they can make the hajj once in their lives, and that is mandatory unless you can't do it. Obviously, poor people can't go.
But that's something that every Muslim strives for. And when you have hundreds of thousands of people congregating and then moving as a group around the Kabbah, let me tell you, it gets hotter than hell. People are crammed together. A few years ago, there was a real problem in that there are the bridges over various areas that were there was gridlock. People died, but thirteen hundred I don't remember thirteen hundred dying on Hajj this year. I mean,
it is crazy. And the Saudi Arabia tries, I mean they are a lot of crowd control, but you know you're going to have people dying. It's one hundred and twenty degrees outside, so that is a tremendous amount of people. Shocking number of people just dying in the desert. And I have to say, I recover this story all morning and was totally pronouncing Hajj wrong. But don't worry, everyone corrected me very swiftly. So how'd you I don't know, my country was showing, but I was saying, Haji no,
no, that is no, that's like an impanada. Haji is a little pastry thing with meat in it. Oh, by the way, that's not true at all. I just I was like, I just literally made up. I was gonna say, not only have I not heard of it, but it sounds still delicius. You too can have a Oh my god, it's it's the hodge. My apologies to all of the people who celebrate Hajj and also to the news director who is very upset with me. All right, uh us, this is a little bit of blowback for the leaf
blowers pun intended. Hello, a little bit of controversy here in New Jersey. The excuse me second, Okay, I'm not dying. That just got weird. In New Jersey, it looks like they're considering banning statewide. They're considering banning leaf blowers, and it's kind of a controversy between people who don't
like the gas powered ones versus the battery powered ones. The leaf blowing industry says the battery powered ones are not as effective, but people who want the band say that the gas powered leaf blowers aren't good for pollution, and they aren't good where people live and where children should be illegal. To begin with, Yeah, you know, has anybody ever seen a broom and a big
broom and a dust pan. You know those do exist. I have to say, I wish that if they're going to keep the leaf blowers, I wish that everybody would get on the same leaf blowing schedule, because in my neighborhood there are leaf blowers going off every single day of the week, every morning, every day. That should be a round out the gunfire in my
neighborhood. So it's kind of a nice change. Tell you, it's more expensive, it's much more expensive to use batteries, it's inefficient, and yeah, it would be better if you had a vacuum, but a broom and a dust pan is not going to do it, will Well, Okay, how I know you do this yourself all the time? Oh yeah, you know, yeah, I certainly do. I hit that old leaf blower every
week. They should have. I mean, what they're arguing, which is legitimate, is that the gas powered ones, even though they're more powerful, I mean, look at the pollution, look at the noise. They should have nuclear these because now nuclear motor's nuclear engines are so small they can put them in leaf blowers or completely silent at least the engine part of it. Wow, that's a great idea. I have to look into that. It's
like a nuclear powered submarine, a nuclear powered leaf blower. Doesn't that this is what this I tell you? Sounds safe? Yeah, sure, sounds good to me. I've seen those old test explosion videos. It pretty much cleans the block. Yeah. It certainly does nothing better than Donald Trump speaking to a group of evangelicals. What a match. So he said to them they cannot afford to sit on the sideline in the twenty twenty four election,
imploring them at one point to go and vote Christians please. Yeah. And then he also endorsed displaying the Ten Commandments in school and elsewhere. While speaking to a group of these influential politically, he was commenting on Louisiana just passing a law that says the Ten Commandments must be displayed in every classroom in the state, all public schools, in nice, big letters. So he is endorsing that. Now I have a question when you look at the Ten Commandments
and Trump endorsing that, it is questionable as to nine of them. Okay, I think number seven Trump has a real problem with thou shall not commit adultery. So maybe he just bypasses one, and Trump says, I believe in the publication of the Nine Commandments. What do you think he just goes through and goes nope, Yeah, just check some off. This one's bad. Yeah, I could do better. Nope, that's true. I like to see that. All right. This is a really heartbreaking story that happened
at Wild Rivers water Park in Irvine. A young boy died after a medical incident. It happened outside of the pool. We don't have a lot of details when what exactly happened. He was twelve years old, enjoying the water park this weekend and he passed away. And we don't know what it is. We just know that it wasn't water related. That's what the park is saying, Yeah, which seems to indicate there was. Are they going to say natural causes? And we don't know natural causes with a twelve year old.
I mean, obviously it's heart problems. It's something going on, and it does happen. You could have had an allergic reaction, could be you just don't know at this point, or we don't know. Really sad, all right. Democrats in California have agreed to delay a minimum way agent increase for about four hundred and twenty six thousand healthcare workers because they need to balance
the state budget. Now. Of course, Governor Gavin Newsom doesn't have a problem forcing that minimum wage hike on others, but he can't afford it, so they're pushing it off from yeah, we can't afford it. And as far as the healthcare workers, we're talking about twenty five dollars per hour up to the next decade, So you know, you don't know how long that's going to take. Now, that's going to be delayed, delayed and delayed.
And I'm going to talk a little bit about healthcare workers and their connection to the topic that I am going to do, and that's at where's that going to be? I think? Let me see seven thirty wow, seven thirty. I was just trying to figure out where he goes because it's sort of connected peripherally, and I just wanted to somehow put that together, and I didn't do a wonderful job. Okay, let's move on to American Paul
Wheelan has now surpassed two thousand days in Russian custody. He told CNN he's urging the Biden administration to take some more decisive action to help secure his release and fellow detained American Evan Gerkovich. I hope I'm saying that correctly. He has been declared wrongfully detained by the US State Department and was arrested in Moscow in December of twenty eighteen and sentenced to sixteen years in prison on espionage charges
and has consistently and vehemently denied those charges. Yeah, there's a problem with the Americans being being locked up over there. Britney Griner got out after eight or nine months, but she was not accused of espionage. These two are certainly Paul Wheelan straight out espionage, and then you have you've got Evan who has been accused of I guess spying. Also, one is es manage, one is straight out spines. So we're not going to see them anytime soon,
unfortunately. All Right, Hollywood business owners are rightfully upset. They're frustrated after planters that were installed to keep homeless encampments from growing were ordered to be removed by the city. So if you pee and poop on the streets and put your garbage everywhere and set up tents, that's okay. But if you put planters and trees. Now, these are the businesses that are putting planters in trees to keep those people off. I realize that, but that gets
the city boomed. They're right there, I say, they cover them in tents and they put human feces around them, and the city will assume that they're They can rightfully be there.
