We all got things, man. I scheduled my things at ten oh five. Though.

Yeah, it's good, give yourself a bathroom break, you know, what I realized though over the last few days.

Could be a long list. Yeah, therapy session here, what's at the top.

Because since Sysney evacuated last week, I followed her to make sure she found somewhere safe to go. And I realized when I was worrying about you that I don't have your location, and I think it's time that we shared just so that.

Didn't I respond, did I tell you how to leave? I had to find a hotel.

I could not find you told us after the fact. But also like I would have taken you in, you wouln't have had to pay money for a hotel and come to my house.

Georgia and I needed some space, and you know, I just we've been good for Georgia. She can play with Diego. It's a fair point. There was not a lot of grass where we ended up having to stay. By the way, it was packed. Yeah, we couldn't get the right room, you know, Like we had a room with two beds. I wanted one, but we had a room with too. I didn't care.

Eus.

Those are the only ones that were available. The kids room. Kids you got a bunk bedroom I got. They were not stacked on top of each other. But they were small and side by side, and she wanted to sleep with me. Oh, but I just think it's time in these times that we uh, I'm going to pass on that. What do you think about it?

I won't abuse it, so you and I can share location. We'll start there.

Yeah, but like it's just too much, guys, it's I mean, you would know. You would have known I had Burton Ernie beds. You know you had my location?

No?

Not really does give us a camera into your life? It was like a doorbell camera.

No, no, no, that's different.

I think for safety reasons. Time has got a point.

Thank you.

Okay, we'll think about it. Yeah, let's marinate on that. Let me figure out how to do it. Give I just learned how to drop a pin during all this crisis, because they kept asking where are you?

Exactly similar to that pin, That's what I'm saying. I could look, I saw Sysney, she.

Was so she was okay, he was. She actually was just like where is she? How many nights were you out of your home? One night? In one night? It was that we were you know.

That Studio City fire was the one that kind of got us up and running out because it was just so close to our house.

But luckily it was put out and didn't spread. It was not windy that night, you know, Thank goodness. We have that alert sound on our phone, which does get your attention. I don't alarmed to be that loud, but you know, you get the warning. And then there were a couple that they sent the wrong one. Yeah, you know every time we hear that sound, Now it gets you, doesn't it totally? All right? So here we go. It is already Wednesday, all day January fifteenth. Let's see what we're going all day long. You guys didn't hear that, did you.

Excuse me, women, you have not you tried one person? Not interested. You didn't tell me that. Well, I'm telling you now, not interested. That's it. There's not women. There was one person. You sent me one name. Person. You gotta go one by one. It's the numbers game. Stop with the numbers game. It's like it's on a repeat this show. Yeah, all right, five go to five go tos. Most of them are from Robbie Law terms. If you're lucky enough to still have your home. God bless you, and for those who have lost theirs. It is all the uncertainty and the lack of peace of mind is unsettling. We've talked to so many families. We have friends as well, best friends that have lost their homes entirely. Sisney, we were evacuated. We got to come back home. But yeah, but we're one of the lucky ones, like out of everybody else. O true, It's it's so true. And when you go to Siciny's house, I just want you to know, if you're ever invited over, she's got a nice avocado tree. She was blessed with this tree before she got the house. Okay, so don't think she planted this tree. It's been there for I don't even know how many generations. Probably I think of you and I think of Tom Selleck a lot at the same time. Okay, because Tom Sellick has avocado trees as well. You know he does those insurance commercials. It almost make me cry. Yes, I don't know if you've seen them. They're like three minutes long, just like, oh you got to see Tom Suck does an insurance commercial that makes you want to move in with Tom Selleck. I can't think you're Tom Selleck right now? Mustache magnum p. I yes, oh from friends. No he's not from friends, Yes he is. He's not from friends, Yes he is. Tom Selleck is not from friend Yes, that's not where he's from. He's from Magnums.

He is.

Monica Geller's boyfriend is blue Buds. He has a dinner with the blue Blods. I don't know what blue Bloods is. Okay, well, you guys need to start watching CBS. We know him from friends. From friends, he was on friends. He's from magnum P. I never seen it the same. Check him out any shorts, by the way, you'd love it. I know he's got shorts. Ever, anyway, he moves me. Why do you get into that I'm talking about avocados. Yes, so Systney has this beautiful avocado tree. What you would think on your way out you could just grab one because there's a plethora. Well here's the thing. If you come over to my house, that's not true.

If you come over, if Tony comes over, Mark, you come over, I will happily give you one avocado.

I mean, okay, why just one? My tree is like gives the best avocado.

They are so big and juicy and buttery and delicious, and they are great avocados. However, my I just don't like sharing with like my family, because my mom, my dad, and I'm calling you out right now, because this is what you do. My mom especially, they've been watching this avocado for the past year, like the tree, like, oh, they're.

Not ready yet. Oh they're not ready yet. Oh they're not ready yet. And then they come over and what do they do.

My mom pulls them all out and then she puts them in a brown paper back and she takes twenty avocados home with her. And let me tell you, let me tell you. My parents have an avocado tree in their backyard, so they don't know they're there. Avocados are really deformed and like they don't grow big.

Avocados supill February.

Well that's the thing.

And she has like this whole system because if they're not right, you put them in the bag and it has to be a dark place and like all this stuff whatever.

But they don't ask. They just thanks for the avocadas. Is your mother? She's allowed to take your avocado fruit? Clearly? I mean, I don't I don't stop her. Do you know what avoca tom SELLI told me. Avocado trees can produce two to threehud avocados a year, so get over it.

Well, this is my first year in the house, and I don't know how many avocados I'm going to get.

But then she might want one to day. Maybe I kind of do. When I buy avocados at the store, they don't taste like anything. I know, this zero taste the avocados I buy at the store.

I'm going to bring you one in my avocados, and it's going to change your mom.

I won't That's what I'm saying.

I'll share a couple of you guys, don't take the whole bad Worth.

Well, we're not gonna steal because we've obviously heard that's against the rules. But I'd like to taste an avocado. They taste like an avocado, because like tomatoes don't even taste like tomatoes orre I buy my tomatoes. Why is that because they produce too many of them and they pick them early. Yeah, or they're coming from somewhere else. You know. I read they picked bananas like when they're super green. They put them on a ship. Yeah, but a banana still tastes like a banana to me. True, I just don't know how, like they pick them too early. I mean I was reading this book on how they picked bananas and bok the Dole book, the book on the door who for myself? I bought it for me anyway, talks about how they you know, they grow them in different parts of the world, and they're shipped, put in a container, dark and shipped. Then they're put you know, in a central location, then put on a truck, then they're put in the store. I mean, your banana has a real journey before it gets to your mouth. That they don't stand a chance.

At my house, we get I get six bananas at a time and they are gone within three days.

We need a laugh, don't we do that? I'll be hearing that in a promo during Joe Joe Show. So a team of researchers at Binghamton University recruited people who read a series of text exchanges, and they said text messages should not include this if you want to be taken seriously. What an emoji? I do this all the time. Well, emojis is a good I don't even understand how the emojis I get sometimes Now it takes me.

To some like Avatar page. I'm like, I just want the regular emojis.

Like trucks and two like these are too high tech. Does a dump truck? All of a sudden, I only said a dump truck. They say, don't put a period in your message. Oh, may be take it more seriously. Mine automatically puts a period in there when I I don't even notice when it does or doesn't. And I hit a period sometimes when I'm not even meaning to hit the period, like, I just leave it there. I'm a dot dot totter as well. I love dot dot dots me too, because here's my thoughts and then the trail off. It's also because I don't remember on my grammar, so dot dot dot it and keep going.

Yeah. Same.

So today's quote for your Wednesday. Better to adjust your life to their absence than to adjust your boundaries to accommodate their disrespect. Dude, just FM headlines with siciny well.

Governor Gavin Newson signed an executive order that will speed up debris removal and preparation for potential mudslides. The flooding in the areas burned by the wildfires.

Another windy day ahead.

We are under a red flag warning until six this evening.

The Particularly Dangerous Situation PDS warning is in effect until three today for much of La and Ventura County, California.

Wildfire victims are eligible to receive one time payments of seven hundred and seventy dollars from the federal government as part of FEMA's Critical Needs Program, and Amtrak is offering ten dollars one way tickets to travel anywhere in Socow in an effort to help those impacted by the recent wildfires.

In the last week, hundreds and hundreds of new GoFundMe pages have gone up from people devastated by these fires. This week, everybody knows somebody that's had this tragedy really impact them. Whole families losing their homes, losing their memories. Uh, this one you hit home right here with Simon. Who's Simon Bingham, who's worked on our show sixteen years? Wow? Yeah, sixteen years that Simon's been sending me pages.

I mean, when you put it that way, that's loyalty.

A lot of pages.

I'm here, bab, Yeah, I'm here sixty right now. You know everyone, I'm close to the city and and my coworkers and my friends and my family of course.

So well, let's talk about your family here for something. I also have your brother going to bring up on the line. But your brother, Josh and his samily they lost their home huh in Palisades. They did.

Yeah, they thankfully they got out safe and sound. They avoided the snare of traffic that made it even harder for so many people. They were very smart. They got out it. They got out ahead of it as much as much as they could. But obviously they they lost, you know, so much.

So let me bring in Josh Bingham. This is Simon who works on our staff. Here, this is Josh and his family. They did lose their home. Josh, good morning, thanks for coming on. How you holding up?

Hey?

Thanks guys, You know, all things being said, were doing okay. The love and support from friends and family and colleagues has been amazing. You know, the best of people has been brought out by the worst of things happening. It's it's devastating, it's hard to wrap your head around. It's surreal, it's scary, it's sad. You know, I've young kids and it's been just crazy for them. We you know, we lost everything, the house they've grown up in, the house they've known since they were born. As my brother was saying, we you know, we were very lucky to have been aware and and sort of paying attention when it started to go down, and so we got out safe and sound. But you know, the loss for our community, for the city of la for everybody that lived around us, our neighbors and friends, are you know us included, It's it's profound.

So you saw this, well, this is in the Palisades on the first night, you saw the smoke and you immediately got out of there. Did you beat that gridlock that was a problem.

Yeah, we were super lucky for that. I was I was outside doing some hard work right there, you know, and I looked up and it was like, I don't know, ten forty five eleven in the morning, and this.

Is sort of dark.

But my wife has always joked that, like, you know, she's the sensible one. I'm always like, yeah, we're gonna be fine, you know, but when it comes to fire, I'm the one that is has been always like one foot on the floor, like I don't know that the sant Ana winds just freaked me out and in this case, a little plume of smoke over the top.

Of the hill.

And it was a beautiful blue sky day, but the wind was ripping twenty five miles per hour, steady with big dusts, and and was that little plume was pointing directly at us. And I was like, whoa, you know, I just had a feeling.

It took a picture.

It doesn't look like much, you know, but I just I don't know.

Something told me.

I went inside, I talked to my wife. We started thinking about should we pack up and should we get out. Within like twenty minutes, that smoke got sick and much bigger, and.

It was still bowling right at us.

And she started getting mom group texts like from neighbors and people going like, well, this looks crazy. And then we got an evacuation warning, at which point we were like, okay, let's go time yeah, and yeah, it's your question mine. We beat the lock by a minute, and you know, I got onto Pacific Coast Highway and was able to move, but I saw that Sunset Boulevard was already like gnarally it was backed up and cars kind of people getting out of their cars. It was knowing ash.

You know, Josh Bingham is on with us, brother of Simon who works here on the on Earthrian Seacrest staff sixteen years and you could just hear it in Josh's voice, the exhaustion, It just just just beats you down. Well, Josh, I know you've got to go fundme page aid the Binghams. That's b I N G H A M s on GoFundMe aid the Binghams. If you'd like to help out that family of four. And let me bring Simon in for a second here, Josh, just on a lighter note, I need you to clarify something here. Simon keeps telling us that your great grandfather was the inspiration for Indiana Jones. Is this true? This is true? Yeah, that's true. Do you think I would lie about something?

I don't know.

It's so nuanced. I thought maybe you make that up, Jones, if it weren't for Grandpa being No, I don't make up. I ambellish. That's what I did for I am Bella.

Simon.

Simon makes up a lot. He did not make that one up.

That is true.

There is a rumor, and I can't confirm.

This, but somewhere out there there's an original draft of that script, and Hiram Bingham's name is written in pencil on the on the front of that script. Jones and Simon and I were fledgling filmmakers.

One day.

The first movie I ever made was called Illinois, Josh, and I was trying to be I was trying to be Indiana Joe.

Let's just mentioned. I'm sorry I was.

I was relegated to assistant, like sort of like boy child assistant to Indiana or to Illinois Josh.

And he got the lead role. And I'm still a little bit Did they call you Springfield? What was your code name? I think I was nameless. It was a silent film shout out to femil Well, I just want to tell you, Josh, you are the better looking brother.

Here.

I'm looking at looker Josh Bingham of La trying to just have a little bit of a laugh with you. But I know your family is really going through it after being displaced. So thanks for coming on. Much love and big hugs to your power. Yeah, we love you.

Yeah, thank you, guys, really appreciate it. Be good and keep springing the work.

Thank you.

Thanks Simon for setting that up for us with my pleasure. It will be years and years before our city comes back to normal, and some of those blocks look like blocks again. I mean, that's just unbelievable. But this is not going away. Yeah, So we're here every morning with you at kiss appreciate you coming back as part of your routine. So Tany was telling us that John Mayer posted something about what everybody's going through in these fires and what was it that struck you, Tanya.

Well, a lot of people have been throwing around this phrase in the midst of the wildfires, that it's just stuff, meaning thank god you're okay and the rest is replaceable, and it's a well intentioned phrase. But John Mayer's post went viral because it really encapsulated the sentiment to people losing things. And the photo on the post was just a picture of like a folder and it was a very long caption, but to summarize, he said, this is the most valuable thing I own. Photos that spanned my father's life from infancy to adulthood. It's the only evidence of his life that will exist over time. When you hear someone say they've lost everything in a fire, this is much of that everything, if not all of it. Those who say they'll be okay still have their folders and their albums. Just behind the immeasurable loss of life is the loss of the proof of life. And I mean this was shared so much over the past week. I feel and I one of my friends that lost his home, that is the one thing he says he wakes up every morning kind of gas being saying, I wish I would have taken that folder with these photos that I just got from my family. I wish that I would have taken that clock that was from my parents. I wish I would have grabbed that, you know, like that type of it's it's not they wish they would have grabbed their jackets or their favorite pants. It's always those things that those memories, the memories, and I feel like that is what is really your spirit.

It's a good point because material stuff, when you say stuff, that's material stuff, right, But the memories, you know, I think we were talking here kids projects, and you know, I remember I made a plate for my mom that is terrible but hysterical with a bunch of permanent markers. And I was in kindergarten nineteen twelve the year but she loves it.

Yeah, No, it's those wooden beams in the kids room that you measure their you know how often they grow every month. It's all that stuff that I feel is it's really hurting.

It's true heartbreaking too. But resilience is the key word that we're seeing from so many people here in La. Can I jump to Long Beach for a second? One down LB Long Beach and Sarah with an h on the phone here, Sarah, good morning? How can we help you in Long Beach?

Hey, good morning. I'm just looking girl advice. I've been with my girlfriend for two years and she's definitely the one. We live together and we're planning on getting married and having kids and everything. But she came to me over the weekend and said that she wants to be the biological mom of any kids that we have. And I was shocked by this because I just assumed she would have one and I would have one something, you know. But the reason she gave is that my mother is an alco aholic and she wouldn't want that down. Yeah, my mom?

Wow that is heavy. Yeah, how did I make you feel? We must be I'm a fan? Yeah, me too.

Yeah, Like my mom has actually worked really hard, like she's been sober for four years and she's been super supportive of our relationship and everything, and she would just be like mortified if she knew this conversation was happening.

Yeah, this is interesting. How long have you been with your partner?

About two years?

And did you discuss kids and how at any point early on?

Well, you said, like both of us have said that we wanted to get married and have kids, but we did not ever discuss specifics of like who would have them?

Right, Well, yeah, and then there's there's that part. But to me, it's the reason why she doesn't want you to have one, because of your your history. And I think that that is wow for a partner.

To say that, Yeah, like she's put a lot of thought into that even before she vocalized it to you.

That's a character. Tell you know, how are you with her now? Are things awkward now?

I mean.

Kind of like my first instinct was to just like try and figure out any issues in her family, like terrible, why don't you?

Why don't you? What's the science on that disease and it being carried into a child? What's the science on it? Because you know it's not proven? Is it proven? To necessarily be something that is passed along.

I mean, it is hereditary. It's like she's not wrong.

So is it proven that it's always Herittald? How have you been as as your doctor?

I don't have an issue with it, But honestly, that might be because seeing my mom growing up, I've always just kind of stayed away from alcohol, like I haven't.

Really Then that's your Yeah, that's almost like you it's gonna be your child. That's what you then will create right in your child's.

Life, like you've broken the cycle and then and now it's all about how you raise your child.

Yeah, I mean I definitely would want at least one of our children to be mine biologically. So I just don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know what to say to her about it.

It sounds like she's pretty set on it. Oh she's not set.

You need to convince her otherwise, and otherwise what this is a deal breaker?

I agree, I mean it is still a longer conversation. I'm just googling alcoholism has alcoholism has a hereditary component. With a family history of alcolism, are at a higher risk of developing a higher risk. But you're not in that world. So I don't you know, I really think this is the conversation you should have with your partner. It is definitely something I'm I'm glad you're talking about now, not later finding this out because you may not feel comfortable, but maybe you will and maybe you guys will get there. So good luck, but continue to talk. It says there's a fifty percent chance of being predisposed to alcohol use disorder if your family has a history. So it's not I mean, you're late living a clean, sober life and that's what your child's gonna see. So thank you, sir for reaching out. We wish you the best of luck on this one. It's tough.

Yeah, yeah, all.

Right, well I appreciate it.

Good luck to take care, all right.

Thanks.

I think you know she doesn't drink, so her child doesn't see it. But I want to shift gears. There are so many stories like this. Unfortunately, we're gonna meet Morgan Postsada here in Altadena. Morgan's on the line. Morgan and his family lost everything in the Eton fire. Fortunately he and his family are okay, two boys and a daughter, one set of clothes. He's a local gardener, lost his clients, lost his tools, lost everything. How are you doing, Morgan?

Yeah, right now, and you talked away with my son we go I can understand a level of English.

My dad would like to patch the phone to me because you can't really, Yeah.

No problem. So I just asked him, how's he doing?

Where do we find a lot better than when it first happened? Slowly just trying trying to find resources and yeah, just finding support around the community and with family members.

So you can ask him this and he can put put the fund to him. He can answer it in Spanish. That's fine. Just asking your father about those moments of saving the family and the things that you guys have lost as a family.

As a moment.

A and being a momento and montagno okay, lachista gus antro pertamento personal secot scale he plays police a mobile or the Amergenia esposa pas manto.

The play won't go say he said.

Basically, he had like ten minutes to evacuate. The police came to his house, told him it's time to go, and he saw the smoke on the mountain and that was.

It, and.

In well let's let's pack it up.

Yeah, the list that on.

His wife got out. His wife got out first, and he was trying to go back to maybe get more things. They wouldn't let him. It was just too late, and they all slept on the street that night.

Wow. Morgan Posada with us and local gardener helped the community work for a lot of people right there, his neighbors who have lost their homes as well. He's lost all of his tools, he's lost a lot of his work because people don't have their homes there. That is the crazy thing to think of. Yeah, Morgan, we're going to give out your go fund me page for anybody that is hearing your story and would like to help you out. Is what you do is you go and go fund me and you search support Morgan Postada. Support Morgan Posada. That's the family that you're listening to here. He and his son are both on the line with us right now. Well, Morgan, and to your son there, we are very very sorry about the state of things and what has happened now, and we know there's so much good in this city and people want to come out and they want to help, and I think that they'll respond to this conversation. Support. Morgan puts out on the GoFundMe page. God bless you.

Okay, thank you very much.

Okay, big hugs to you, your dad and your sister, your family.

Okay, thank you, bye bye.

The Posada family breaks my heart. It is heartbreaking. In there are just the plethoro stories like this. Yeah, seecrest with you, thanks for listening to us. So many weddings going on, so many weddings just on this staff there. I guess still going to happen as planned. Love knows no rest and Tanya's having her her numptials are coming up in a few weeks. This springs. Yeah, yeah, I haven't heard a reference like that. Yeah at all. Actually, should you take a look at what you're doing? You're getting married, but a lot of brides and grooms send out sort of a list of things to not do. Yeah, dress codes.

Dress codes are expected, I think at weddings. But one couple's very specific request has sparked this debate on social media. And it all began last month when a person expressed her dislike towards anybody bringing an Apple Watch or a smart watch or wearing a smart watch at their wedding.

And what was the reason.

Well, one of the reasons is that it's a distraction and maybe you can factor in, like let's say you're getting married this week, next week around this time.

I mean we're in NFL.

Playoffs, like super Bowls coming up, like checking scores, checking scores.

Things like that.

I mean, I've I've been at weddings sometimes during a big game and like they'll have the game on in like the bar outside of the ballroom or whatever, and then all the guys are over there watching the game and not enjoying the wedding.

Really see, dislike that.

And I actually one of the dates that was open for our wedding was Super Bowl, Didn't I tell you?

And I was like, no, could do you imagine? What about I'm just throwing uh, I'm playing Devil's advocate here, But what about if your kids are home with the babysitter and you want to check on your kids.

I think the rule should just be for the ceremony, right, because that is, you know, no more than twenty minutes, thirty minutes at the most, unless it's a Catholic.

You know, some hour and a half.

Well that's a full mask, you know.

Margie Gochez and her family lost the home in the Eton fire. She set up a go Fundme page, which we'll get to here, just to try and amplify those of you have these go fundme pages. We're here for you. Her niece said in the go fundme post, this home is the house we celebrate holidays and birthdays in those walls. Have so many memories, so many priceless memories have been created. Here are beloved grandparents spent their final days in this home. And now it's the reality for a lot of families. But to lose a home that's been in your family for generations, Margie, how are you doing?

Ryan's not so good. Oh understand, you know, I'm taking it day by game because it's so overwhelming, you know, it's I can't even think about the way the house looks. It's not the value of the home. It's all the memories we've built there. You know, both of my parents died there. That was the last wish before they died, that they die in their home. And they did you know, all the pictures we had, all the all the just everything. You know, my dad was so proud of the property. He planet trees, We had oranges and tangerines and and just a lot of things, you know, the home that reminded us of him and her. You know, it was just a beautiful little So they were going to celebrate one hundred years for those all those houses that were called James Cottage, they were built back to the nineteen hundreds and they were going to celebrate one hundred years. We were going to have a black party because our community was so tight, you know, we all looked after each other. We were multi culture, different people there. You know, there were Caucasians, black, white. It was just a thriving community and we all help each other. And no, it's good, it's completely good.

Breaks for you and your neighbors who are all on this street. And what a beautiful thing to have a community like that, to be able to lean on each other from all different places of the world, all different places in life. Margie go Chaz is with us now, and this is the this is what people are feeling. You know, they're not concerned about the value of the house, the value the memories that they've wasted with these generational homes. And so Marchie, where have you and your family gone? Now?

Well, we the first we were able to afford a hotel is we I have respiratory problems. I'm on oxygen twenty four to seven. I couldn't be around when there's a lot of smoke because then I will end up in the hospital. So we went to Santa Clare in a hotel. But I could only afford to stay there a few days. But thank God. You know, people have come through, but you're not going to believe they can come through. You know this this great band the fourth they opened UH here in Manadelo. They opened a whole floor they've rented and they will they give us a room some staying here still Thursday. I don't know where I'm going to go from there, but at least for now I have a stable place and I'm here. You know, thank you to what Seida. You know that they're God bless them, God bless them abundantly.

And then I'm going to ask you about the place you're staying in now. Do you have to leave on Thursday or is it because you need the money to pay for it?

Well, I don't have the money to pay for it, so I have to find this. I have to find another place. You know. My sister also lost her home in Altadena. I mean it affected all our family. So my sister also, it's saying she was able to get a room here with us and in uh because she lost her family. She lived above us. And if she even lost her you know, her turtles. She had a turtles for twenty seven years and we just couldn't get her out on time, or to die.

I'm sure so are. There are no words to say in a moment like this. There's there's nothing that can help that is in the form of words. This is the Gochez family. I will tell you this, Margie. I want to pay for your place, so you'll let me take care of that for a little bit longer for you. It's the smallest, tiniest thing we can do. But I don't want to rush out of there tomorrow. So if you I'm gonna put you on hold, and if you tell us, tell me how much it is per night. I want to extend your stay there.

Thank you so much, right, thank you. You don't know how preciative, so appreciative to the community, because we only walked out with the clothes we had on, and people have been donating clothes, you know. We had a lady brought us some food yesterday. I mean, it's been overwhelming, overwhelm me.

Well take a so much, take a moment to not have to rush out of there tomorrow. Well you tell me how many, I'll I'll make sure you don't have to rush out of there. That's what I'm saying to you.

Thank you so much and we'll get.

This to you. I'm gonna figure out a method to get this to you right away. So Margie, God bless you, and to your sister, and to your family and to the community, now to Dina. I mean, it's just it's heartbreaking. You know, people people all over the world are seeing it, but I don't know that you get it unless you're here.

Yeah. Our old neighbor down the street, he didn't make it out on sex so perish, you know, it's down his body. Oh my, Yeah, it's just I mean, there were so many elderly people that lived there that I am. I am not going to be surprised that they're gonna find a lot of you know, up dead people there. They have died because it just could out on time. Yeah.

I just can't imagine the stress, the complexity of this for you. It's just unbelievable. Margie. We're here for you if you ever want to talk or you need anything, We're here every single day. I want you to know that I'm going to put you on hold. Don't hang up, Margie. I'm gonna put you on a hold so I can take care of your hotel. I so much, it's my pleasure. It's my pleasure. You can live for you. Okay, God bless you, Margie. Hold on one second. I mean that is just devastating, and that story is echoed with so many people. That's the thing. So many people are in the same situation. So inside our updated and revamped iHeartRadio app in the kiss page, there's a red microphone. Basically tap it.
