You're listening to KFI AM six forty wake Up Call with me Amy King on demand on the iHeartRadio app k Fly and kost In HD two Los Angeles and Orange County, and you as Amy. Okay, it's five o'clock. This is your wake up call for Friday, June twenty eighth. We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. I'm Amy King. Good morning. We made it to Friday. I know it's ridiculous to say that, but I always feel

like it's an accomplishment. So the big debate last night, all I can say is wow, and that if I would have gone by Gary and Shannon's drinking game rules, I would have been really really drunk. Interesting though, super interesting, And we're going to be talking more about the debate this morning. We'll also be talking with ABC's Rick Klein in just a couple of minutes, and you can bet that Bill Handle is going to have a few things to say about it on Handle on the News, which comes up right after

wakeup calls. So please stick with us today. Here's what's ahead on your wake up call. The first presidential debate of twenty twenty four In the books, it was a real eye opener for many as President Biden mumbled and stumbled several times, sparking concerns among Democrats over his age and ability to run for another four years in office. Some are saying that some prominent Democrats are in an all out panic mode. Los Angeles Metro is moving forward with a plan

to create its own police force. Board of directors voted yesterday in favor of launching what will be called the Transit Community Public Safety Department. It'll focus solely on patrolling buses, trains, and stations. Today is expected to be the busiest day for travelers as we head into the fourth of July holiday. Oh

goodie, I'm going to be one of them. The TSA says it expects to screen over thirty two million flyers now through Monday, July eighth, and that today is going to be the peak day for holiday flights, with over three million flyers expected to go through TSA security checkpoints. Let's get started with some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Of

course, the debate. President Biden and former President Trump have faced off at the CNN presidential debate, where Trump alleged Biden is the reason Russia invaded Ukraine. That's a war that should have never started. It would have never started ever with me, Trump said last night, Biden is weak, and Russia's President Putin realized America wasn't something to be afraid of. Biden called Putin a

war criminal who has killed thousands of people. He wants to re establish what was part of the Soviet Empire, not just a piece who wants all of Ukraine. That's what he wants, and then you think he'll stop there. Biden also claimed Trump would dismantle NATO if he wins. Trump said if he wins, he would settle the war between Russia and Ukraine. Before officially taking

office in January, Governor Newsom has defended President Biden. Following the debate, he brushed off concerns about Biden's performance, saying, we've all had those nights. I know Joe Biden, know what he's accomplished in the last three and a half years, I know what he's capable of, and I know his vision and no trepidation. Newsom also said about Biden, We've got to have his back. The governor also criticized former President Trump for pushing claims that Biden

used performance enhancing drugs before the State of the Union address in March. A new police agency for La Metro has been approved. The process will take about five years, so in the meantime Long Beach Police and the La County Sheriff's

Office we'll continue to patrol the transit system. LA Mayor Bass, who chairs the Metro board, explained why she thinks a change was needed, having greater control and accountability over law enforcement and centering community safety and care based strategies and addressing the unique quality of life challenges on our trains and buses. Board members said the current approach was not working, with violent crime on the rise across

the system and better coordination needed in downtown La. Michael Monks KFI News, I'd say good morning now to ABC's Rick Klein and Rick you're into the politics. This was the most anticipated debate in years. What's the consensus on how it went? It was an awful debate for Joe Biden. It was an unmitigated disaster. There's no way to look at this and not realize, you know, start to finish. The answers were off all over the map,

on tentsycle and downright harmful. To his campaign. I mean, I think it's raising questions around stability to continue as a candidate that I think are unavoidable. I know that there's a great answer about what Democrats do next, but I don't know how you watched that and and not and not process that as

it's just way worse than that anyone could have anticipated. You know, I agree, we were watching it, and I'm sure that you were communicating with people, and I had friends, we were texting back and forth, just going this is this is painful. I mean it was hard to watch. Yeah, it was. It was cringey, and you know, it was sometimes the easy stuff they got to pick up with the topics that you should have been able to handle pretty easily and pretty with some facility that seems to

go sideways and start to finish. So again, it just didn't seem to be anything. You know, the best part of the debate might have been when they were arguing about their golf course, which you know, I don't think was a soaring example of a great American rhetoric. Agreed. As far as the substance of the debate, do you think either of the candidates really made any gains anywhere or made any real inroads. Well, look, I think I think if you dissect with Donald Trump said, you found lots of

lives, lots of mistress was all over the place. You know, if the people are truly looking to compare the two of them, I think the biggest thing is going to be, you know, their mental ability is and acuity, you know, and I think there's definitely policy vulnerability that that Trump has. But I just didn't see much diviiding was able to do about it, and it just didn't feel like there was anything that moves the policy needles to these two very well known individuals. Yeah, as far as the flow

of the debate, I don't know how you felt about it. I thought I was surprised. I thought it flowed very well. With the format that they did, with the muting of the mics and that kind of stuff. I expected it to feel more bumpy. But as far as again just flow, I think it went well. Yeah, I think so too. I

mean, look, I there's nothing wrong with the flow of it. I think, you know, it's the candidates that have to have the debate, and you know, by the time it was over, you just didn't have anything you know that that really truly worked, and that I think falls on the candidate's a lot more than the format of the monerittors. Yeah, and as far as they each called the other the worst president in history, they kind of went back and forth. Does that it doesn't. I don't think

it advances anything. But it turns out that, you know, like we don't remember all the policy things because they're talking about just you know, the personal jabs book. The insults were there and it just didn't you know, that doesn't feel like it gets you very far, but you know, it's something that winds up base. It's a good memorable, memorable line. And you know, I think a lot of the way the Biden people are explaining last night, they said, look look at the lser up against what can

you do? But I just don't know that truly holds water given how much time was spent by Biden trying to explain his own positions. Really no avail. Yeah. Do you think the second debate is going to happen? I hope. So it's on ABC in September. I think a lot of them happened before then, and you know, to including two conventions. But you know, I think it's we got to commitment last night again from the campaigns, they're expecting this to happen, and we'll see where's see here we go.

Okay, and I know you got to run. You have anything you want to highlight for Sundays this week, which is one of my favorite shows to watch on Sundays. Here, John Carl's going to be talking to Anthony Tauci and breaking down everything from this debate, which I think has really rocked the poor whole landscape. Okay, all right, thank you so much. Rick. I appreciate your time and your information. Have a good weekend. Let's get back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four

hour newsroom. About one hundred workers had to be evacuated from a lab in El Segundo because of unknown fumes. Three people were treated because of contact with those fumes. Kati Ali says it started around ten yesterday morning at the Northrope Grumman facility. Fire officials say there's no danger to the community. The cause of the possible leak is not yet clear. The Only County Sheriff's Department says

it'll be moving department specialized teams to target areas in Lancaster. That's being done in response to several fatal shootings in just a twenty four hour period. Mayor R. Rex Paris says the city is operating with just fifty percent of the number of deputies needed. The Sheriff's Department insists it is meeting its contractual obligations

for policing in Lancaster. City Leaders in LA have put up a twenty five thousand dollars reward for the capture and prosecution of the person who stole copper metal plaques honoring teachers on Woodland Hills. Walk of Hearts nonprofit founder Joe Andrews says grainy security video shows a thief chiseling the plaques out of the sidewalk along Sherman Way and Victory Boulevard, leaving eleven holes in the concrete well. This person

ripses out of the sidewalk. What they're doing is violating a teacher's legacy. Officials say the plaques, worth about forty four thousand dollars, were likely stolen to be sold for scrap. California's Bullet Train project to connect downtown LA to the Bay Area has received environmental approval. It was the biggest Turtle, the project has tackled so far. The state's High Speed Rail Authority Board of Directors

also selected a route between Palmdale and Burbank. The electric trains are capable of reaching speeds over two hundred miles per hour. The route approved features about thirty miles of tunnels, twenty eight of them would go through mountains. Well, that would make sense that you would put tunnels through mountains. The Department of Justice has charged nearly two hundred people in the US with healthcare schemes. Two

of the bigger cases are in Arizona and Florida. Attorney General Merrick Garland says many of the schemes in Arizona targeted older patients. We alleged that the defendants caused unnecessarily unnecessary, highly expensive wound grafts to be applied to elderly Medicare patients, many of whom were terminally ill in hospice care. Official stay agents seized over a million dollars in cash, luxury vehicles, gold, and other assets.

In Florida, a pharmaceutical wholesale company was tied to a ninety million dollar scam involving misbranded HIV drugs. A federal jury in Downtown LA has ruled against the NFL in a lawsuit over how the league distributes it package of out of market games. The panel found the league colluded with DirecTV, along with CBS and Fox to drive up pricing of its Sunday ticket game package. The jury yesterday awarded more than four billion dollars in damages to fans and sports bars for

violating anti trust laws. The NFL says it plans to appeal that decision. Is this appealing to you, maybe a walk on the pier, You're going to be able to do it again along the historic venture a Peer. If you'll remember, the Peer was closed down about a year and a half ago. It was built in eighteen seventy two, and it was damaged because of several heavy storms during the wintertime and the worst of it knocked down some peers.

There were broken timber piles, and the landmark has been fixed, repaired. It's ready to go again and it's reopening this weekend. So if you want to take a walk along one of the longest piers on the West coast, the Ventura Peer is reopening this weekend. It's been close since January twenty twenty three. Nice to see it open again. In the first of two presidential debates, former President Trump deflected and ignored questions, denying that he had

an affair with Dormy Daniels and deflected his actions. On January sixth, President Biden mumbled and stumbled and lost his train of thought. The White House said he had a cold. Voters will get to decide whether inmates in California will be forced to work. California lawmakers voted to add a constitutional amendment completely banning what they call involuntary servitude. It'll be on the November ballot. It would

also make jobs voluntary for people who are incarcerated. Bronnie James is going to play with his dad. The LA Lakers selected Brownie fifty fifth overall in the NBA draft yesterday. This paves the way for Bronnie and lebron James to become the first father son duo to play in the NBA together at the same time. At six o five, it's handle on the news. You can bet this is going to be challenged immediately. Oklahoma plans to start teaching the Bible

in school. Let's say good morning now to ABC's Jim Ryan. Jim what comes up, must come down, which is true of pretty much all the stuff we've launched into orbit. Yes, eventually it will come down. So the stuff in low orbit will anyway, the stuff above that probably not much to worry about. Yeah, this stuff in lower orbit will eventually come down.

Where it falls is of concern to a lot of folks, sing Asset, to the European Space Agency, to pretty much everybody on Earth, potentially, because there is that possibility slight as it might be, that somebody could be hit, could be hurt, could be killed by this, and there

is you know, our statistics to go with this. The FAA took a look at it last year and found that at the current pace of launch it, you know, as things are continually going up into space, satellites and rockets headed to the International Space Station, one person on this planet will be injured or killed every two years by falling space junk, according to the FAA, if the current piece of launches continues, and it probably will, and

in fact it might accelerate. Has it ever happened before? Yes, it is. Yes. A woman named Lottie Williams was walking in a park in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in nineteen ninety seven, she sees this white flash. It felt something on her shoulder. She looked down and looked back where she had been and there's this dark colored, like stiff piece of cloth on the ground. Turned out to that that was part of a Delta Too rocket that came down into Oklahoma and hit the woman. She wasn't hurt. She was

fine after that. And by the way, NASA never came to her and said, hey, can we have that back please. They never came back to her. So she keeps it in a drawer in her own, you know, this little fragment. She does know what it was. NASA confirmed what it was, but had no interest in getting it from her. Okay, and you mentioned whether more and more launches are going to be happening. I mean, we've we had one earlier this week, SpaceX is launching another

one, or they're planning to tonight from Vandenburgh Space Force Space. You're right, They're just going up all the time. Well right, and with that then comes this this proliferation of stuff out there. I'm going to read you from this report that the FAA last year says, by twenty thirty five, if the expected large constellation growth is realized and debris from Starlink satellite survive re entry. The total number of hazardous fragments surviving re entry each year could be

about twenty eight twenty eight thousands. That's a lot of stuff that is not burning up in space. Earlier this week, NASA awarded SpaceX a contract to design and deploy a vehicle that will go up, will intercept the International Space Station in about twenty thirty and nudge it down into a lower orbit so that

it burns up as it re enters. The International Space Station has a shelf life, right, and at some point that shelf life will be reached and it'll be time to bring it back down, and to do so safely. They want to make sure that it burns up. That thing is huge. It is huge. We've been talking to Colonel Nick hagu who's one of the astronauts who's going up on the next mission in August, and I mean he was telling us it's like the size of a football field. Sure, yeah,

and so how do you get that thing to burn up? Well, that's that's now SpaceX's job to figure out. So it's been awarded. I think it's a eight hundred and forty three million dollars, not including launch costs to design a vehicle to go up and de orbit the International Space Station. But I mean, we think the things that's permanent, right, we think the ISS as being a permanent laboratory up there in space. It's only got six years left. Well, it's like Space Lab, which when when branded

that come back. But I remember that that was a big deal. They were worried about where it was going to land and where it was going to hit anyone, right, And it was that That's where I found that Lottie Williams audio this morning because they made reference to that when Space Lab was coming

back, and so her story was sort of resurrected. And it's relevant now because people in North Carolina have been finding things, people in Canada have been locating things out in Saskatchewan, oh really, and down in Florida this week, just this week, a guy who lives in Naples, Florida, demanded that NASA pay him for damage to his home after an object fell through his roof. You know, it damaged to the roof, damage the ceiling on the inside, and fell to the floor, narrowly missing his son. We

could have had a casualty. There are there any plants that we know of to collect what's up there and bring it back or jettison it off into space, or do we just kind of let the satellites fall where they may.

Well, yeah, there are always plans like that in the works, and plans SpaceX, I believe also has a contract to go up and try to collect some of this stuff, some of the pieces fragments that may cause some problems, either nudging them down into orbit to get them to burn up, or to collect them and bring them back somehow, or to send them off

into space so that they don't hurt anybody on Earth. And they're also you know, there are theories that say that, okay, well, with these satellites, the satellites that are large enough that could cause a problem when their effective life expires, why not put another rocket on that thing to send it off into space too so that it doesn't threaten us. But it's there are numbers to go with this, and smart people who are looking at it and

saying there's a slight chance that somebody could be hurt. Scary. You know, it reminds me of when we're talking about all these satellites just floating around and wait and to kind of fall back. Reminds me of the movie Wally. Remember they show it's the animated movie, and they show Earth, which is uninhabitable and it's just completely surrounded by metallic objects in orbit, and I

was like, I wonder what it really looks like out there. Well, space dot Com has an illustration that is like that tells where everything is painted against the Earth, and it is it's almost like Rings of Saturn because everything is pretty much around the equator, around an equator above the Earth. And so yeah, it's kind of scary stuff. Okay, well it's interesting. Look up, everybody watch yourself. All right, that's a little unsettling.

Thank you so much. Can we open a helmet company? Maybe, Well that's a good idea. We just all walk around with helmets on. Yeah, space helmets. Yeah great, Okay, thank you, Jim Ryan. All right, have a good weekend. Let's get back to some of the stories coming out of the Camp twenty four our newsroom. Two men from La County been charged with using Instagram to sell more than sixty weapons, including unregistered

ghost guns and machine gun conversion devices known as glock switches. The US attorney's offices. Two others are also charged in the case. The alleged illegal gun sales happened in North Hollywood, Las Vegas, and other places. A bill to ban so called outing policies at schools in California has had a bumpy ride to the Governor's desk. Assemblyman bill as Saley grew frustrated while arguing against the bill, the assemblymen had his mic cut off by Assembly Speaker pro Tem Jim

Wood for allegedly arguing off topic. Assale then had this exchange when his mic was restored. I wasn't prepared to address the Chinese Communist Party House today, and John, I am addressing them now. I will. You're out of order, You're while you're disparaging the House. The bill passed yesterday banned school districts requiring teachers to tell parents their kids identify as transgender. Blake Trolley Kafi News. The LA Homeless vis authorities expected to release results of the twenty twenty

four Greater Los Angeles homeless count today. The so called point in time survey was done in January. Results of the twenty twenty three count showed there were seventy five five hundred and eighteen homeless people in the county forty six two hundred and sixty in the city of Los Angeles. Those numbers were an increase from twenty twenty two. Hundreds of millions of dollars has been spent in the region

to address homelessness. Two former Uvalde Schools police officials have been indicted for their roles in the botched response to the mass shooting at rob Elementary School in twenty twenty two. The charges are the first against police and the case in which officers were seen failing. Then are rob Elementary School to get to students, Alex Stone, says Former school district police chief Pete Arendondo sorry Aarondondo and former

officer Adrian Gonzalez were charged yesterday with an abandoning or endangering a child. Nineteen kids and two teachers were killed in the shooting. Four people have been hurt in a fired at an apartment building in Brooklyn, New York. Fire officials say they found a lithium battery powered e bike yesterday covered in flames, blocking a doorway, which made it hard for people to get out. The FOIM marshals are determining if it was involved or the cause all of the apartment units

were destroyed. This neighbor says he feels pretty bad about it. I feel for these people that are probably homeless right now. One person was critically injured with burns and also suffered respiratory distress. Tiana's Bayou Adventure opens today at Nope, not Disneyland yet At disney World, the water ride remains with forty eight new animatronics and more than a dozen songs in rotation. The reimagined water ride is inspired by the Princess and the Frog. It replaces Splash Mountain. The

same attraction is expected to open in Disneyland later this year. President Biden and former President Trump both called the other the worst president in US history during their first of two presidential debates. Trump and Biden's supporters seem to largely agree. It was a lopsided showdown, and Trump came out on top. The debate has Democrats questioning whether Biden has the physical and mental acuity for another four years

in office. The Bullet Train has received a key approval. The route from the Bay Area to La County now has complete environmental approval from both regions. The environmental impact report was approved and a route between Palmdale and Burbank was chosen. The Bullet Train is many years delayed and billions of dollars over budget. Triple A is predicting a record sixty million people will be traveling by car over the Fourth of July holiday between today and Monday, July eighth. That's nearly

three million more than last year. The booking app Hopper says, the good news is that gas prices in the US are down nearly seventeen percent from last year. I say they're still way too high. At six oh five, its handle on the news with stabbings and shootings happening what seems like every week now. The LA Metro Board says it's going to create its own police force

to patrol buses, trains and stations. At five point fifty, we're going to check in with ABC's Jason Nathanson and find out if it's going to be a quiet weekend. Here's what we're following in the KFI twenty four hour news room. The first presidential debate of twenty twenty four is in the books. It was a real eye opener for many as President Biden mumbled and stumbled several times, sparking concerns among Democrats over his age and ability to run for another

four years in office. A bill banning transgender parent notification policies in California schools has passed both houses and is now headed to the governor's desk. The legislation will prevent school districts across the state from passing any policies that require school staff to notify parents if their child is transgender or starts using different names or pronouns

in school. New homes in the US are shrinking. Oh, I should it talk to Dean Sharp that at this The National Association of Home Builders says the typical buyer today wants a home that's just over two thousand square feet. New homes have been shrinking since twenty fifteen, when the average home size peaked at twenty six hundred square feet. We're just minutes away from handle on the news this morning. I did a story yesterday saying people are putting off buying

cars and homes, but they're traveling more. TSA screenings hit an all time high in the last week. Let's say good morning now to ABC's Jason Nathanson. Sh Is it going to be quiet this weekend? Well, there's a

new Quiet Place movie. It's the box office. So but it's not going to be quiet in terms of box office because it's looking like it's going to do pretty well forty to fifty million dollars worth of estimates, which I think the first one earned around fifty million dollars back in twenty eighteen, and this is on track to do that or maybe even more. Although inside Out two he was probably still going to be the top film overall at the box office

for a third weekend in a row. It had a killer second weekend. Yeah, it really did. And it continues to have to do well during the weekdays, which is very interesting to see. So that's probably gonna be number one. But A Quiet Place Day one, which is a prequel to the original two films, is coming on pretty strong, so we'll see what

happens box office wise. This film is it? So the original film start Emily Blunt and John Krasinski was in them and then he directed, and this one he is not directing, but he is an executive producer on and Emily

Blunt is not in this one. It stars Lupita Nyongo and it starts at the beginning of this alien invasion that took over the earth, and that's what we see in the first two films, But we see those two films after they had already kind of gotten used to life under these aliens who basically kill you if they hear you. They can't see, but they can hear, and if they hear you you make any kind of sound, they kill you.

So everybody had to kind of adjust to life like that. This starts with day one in New York, the invasion happens, nobody knows what's going on. Lupita Nango is a woman who has cancer and she is on a day trip to New York when the invasion starts, and she and a group of strangers must learn how to survive in this new world in Manhattan. And it continues to impress me what they are able to do with so little dialogue in these films not just be suspenseful and scary, but also be funny and

be interesting and enjoyable. I you know, I went into this being like, do I really need to see another one of these films? But they do it very very well, and this one continues to do things very very well. Lupita Neongo is great that she is in just about everything she's in. There's a cat in here. It's pretty awesome. So good a real cat. It's a real cat. It's not good, not a cgi cat. It might have done some stuff, but if they did, I couldn't

tell. And for the most part it looks like it's a real cat at all times. Even gets wet, and we know how much cats hate water. So I enjoyed this. If you're looking for, you know, a suspenseful, creepy kind of action flick at the box office, this is going to scratch all those itches. Eight point one out of ten for me. Wow, that's a pretty good score on the Jasonometers. So I have only seen the trailers and the billboards and stuff, and it reminds me of like

a Nope kind of show. Is anything like that? Well, I mean this predates that this was the Quiet Place was out well before a lot of those and the vibe of it, how it's like you don't really know what's going on and it's kind of suspenseful, but you have. There's lots of questions left, no no, because again there have been two previous movies to this, so I think people are pretty well aware. If you're going to

go see this of what's going on. But even if you haven't seen those previous movies, you would be fine to watch this one and not be lost. Okay, Kevin Costner has a new movie out. We Love Kevin Costner. Are we gonna love his new movie? We Love Kevin Costner. Does everybody love Kevin Costner? I don't know. I'm speaking it for the general population. Some people do, I think some people don't. Do you like

Kevin Cosner? Yeah, sure, I do like Kevin Costner. I've been really big into Yellowstone, And the thing here is that this replaces Yellowstone for Kevin Costner, right, this is this is the this is the movie that he left Yellowstone to work on and then eventually parted ways with Yellowstone, which means he's not going to be in the last six episodes of Yellowstone coming up here at the end of the year, because there are all kinds of contract

issues and backs them back and forth and things like that. But this is the thing if you're looking at you know, just I don't know about life's work necessarily, but this seems to be the thing in his life that he has put all his energy into his horizon because this is chapter one this movie, which is three hours long. There's gonna be chapter two coming out in August already, so that's already set. And there's supposed to be two more

parts as well. Now after we see the box office for this weekend. I don't know if those two final two parts are gonna be greenlit or not. You know, this is Kevin Costra. I don't know how much waiting a poll he has to get all four parts made. But this is very much the beginning of this big epic, and it feels like the beginning. It feels like a part of a whole. It does not feel like its own standalone thing yet by any stretch of the imagination, it is sprawling.

There's a lot of loose threads that aren't yet connecting this. Basically, it's a Western It's an eighteen sixties or so. People are moving out west and trying to find their own fortune, their own piece of the American dream. And they're moving and they're encroaching on territory of Native Americans who are not happy with their being there. And so it's all these different families and people who are having these stories of moving out west, and like I said, it's

sprawling, it's big, it's ambitious. The scenery looks great on the big screen. But as you're watching it, and especially if you're a Yellowstone fan, you have to you can't help but think should this have been a TV series? Should this? Because this is three hours you're sitting there asking you to sit in the theater, and there's another three parts coming, so you know, twelve hours total, and that's the length of a limited series on

television. That's what I feel about a lot of the streaming shows that I watch. I'm like, it's like they drug it out too long because they could you know, I don't know about that because most shows these days are like eight episodes, where if you know, you were watching a network show, it would have been twenty two episodes. So a lot of them are

much shorter than they would have been. But there's also there's a different formula to television, and as you're watching it, you know, you know, every episode, especially these days, every episode has to have some kind of big thing and then they drop you with a thing so you come back next week, right, So there's got to be that it either to get you to binge or to get you to stay hooked. There is none of that in Horizon. It is three hours and it is very much a part of

this hole, which is why. Actually I don't have a number rating for it because I don't know if it's fair yet to rate it because it's not complete and we haven't seen the whole thing. But as it is, it's not amazing, and I think they want it to be, but it's not there yet. Okay, and then before we let you go because we are completely out of time, but the bear is out for season three. I haven't watched it all the episodes there. I've watched four. I think of

the eight or ten, I don't know. You know, the first episode is beautiful, I maintain, and the sh show maintains it is not a comedy, so I don't know why they put it in that category because it's half an hour. That's the distinction. At this point, it's time, so it's not a comedy. The show comes back and tells you it's not a comedy over and over and over again, so don't go into it expecting it to be. The tension is there after the first episode. The first

episode is beautiful and there's no tension. Basically, it comes right roaring back in episode two. Okay, super Jason Nathanson, thank you so much. I know you're not going to be with us next week because you're taking some time off for the holiday. So have a wonderful time and we'll talk to you after the holiday.
