00:00:00.920 I'm Kelly Kennedy. I've been called a hope dealer for leaders and with over 300 episodes of the Business Development Podcast, we'll guide you and we'll always be in your corner.
00:00:12.900 Follow the Business Development Podcast on Spotify and let's make 2026 your best year yet.
00:00:23.760 The mayor of California being questioned by the reporter. Do you have that clip, Rob?
00:00:28.600 I do. OK, play the clip. Watch this here, folks. OK, this is an issue now, especially since it has rained and we've seen so many of them.
00:00:39.600 What are you going to do about it? That's right. Well, and let me just tell you, we are fixing them.
00:00:44.280 And in the last three months, we fixed over 10,000 potholes. And in the last couple of weeks, we fixed almost 300.
00:00:52.160 So we are going to continue doing that until all the potholes are fixed.
00:00:57.600 And what we're doing here is asking people to report on 3-1-1 when they see a pothole because we certainly don't want cars damaged or people to have difficulty with that.
00:01:10.400 Now, we saw you fill a pothole with asphalt here just a few minutes ago, and you're encouraging people to call 3-1-1.
00:01:16.840 But guess what? We know people. I work with people who've called 3-1-1. Nothing happened. The pothole was never repaired.
00:01:23.000 They called several times over a couple of months. What do you have to say about that?
00:01:26.280 Well, let me just tell you that in the last two months, three months, we have fixed over 10,000.
00:01:31.700 We have a lot more to fix, but I think this is a reflection of decades of lack of investment in our infrastructure, and we are definitely addressing that.
00:01:41.840 You talk about that. I mean, we spend so much less here in L.A. than other cities do, for example, New York or San Diego, San Francisco.
00:01:49.280 And we haven't repaved a single city street here since last summer.
00:01:53.560 Well, let me just say that we have much more we need to do, which is why I've been developing this.
00:01:58.820 So you can pause right there. Sounds like a politician, you know, lip service.
00:02:02.700 Nothing burger.
00:02:03.280 But by the way, who is the guy? Who was the guy? We have to recognize that guy.
00:02:08.200 Can we get his name? I don't know where he lies politically. I'm sure he voted for her.
00:02:12.860 Can you go to him and just give credit for him asking, can we just recognize the guy's name, Rob?
00:02:19.520 Do we know who the reporter is?
00:02:21.380 Yes. That's the independent station in L.A., KTLA 5.
00:02:24.920 KTLA. I mean, I'm familiar with KTLA.
00:02:27.300 You and I live there, so we know KTLA.
00:02:29.520 But who was the KTLA guy that interviewed him?
00:02:33.320 I just want to recognize the guy because he deserves credit.
00:02:36.420 Eric Spillman.
00:02:37.300 Can you go to his account, Eric Spillman, KTLA.
00:02:40.860 There he is.
00:02:41.320 That's the guy?
00:02:42.300 Yep.
00:02:42.440 Okay, go – can we learn a little bit about this guy?
00:02:46.420 Go to his link, Wikipedia, or is there anything that we can learn?
00:02:50.540 Go to his profile right there.
00:02:52.740 Zoom in.
00:02:54.060 Eric Spillman, original KTLA morning news.
00:02:55.520 I've been to the start of the program in July of 1991.
00:02:57.120 He began reporting one.
00:02:59.000 He said, well, in their shift, they sold the story to AP about a Berkeley professor
00:03:04.200 who won a Nobel Prize in physics.
00:03:05.540 That report for which he was paid $25 was the beginning.
00:03:08.600 And he graduated English literature.
00:03:10.540 Yeah, he's definitely a liberal.
00:03:11.460 But guess what?
00:03:12.880 San Luis Obispo, beautiful ride down the street from Moorah Bay.
00:03:16.220 Hey, whoever you are, respect.
00:03:18.320 Yep.
00:03:18.580 You're asking a question that we're wondering.
00:03:20.560 And, you know, I applaud you for doing what you're doing.
00:03:22.600 Good for you.
00:03:23.180 All right, let's get to the next door here.
00:03:26.040 Next door I want to get to is – I have a clip I want to play to you guys,
00:03:29.340 two clips that I'm going to wait until the end.
00:03:31.220 It's about fathers and daughter, father and son relationship and Anthony Hopkins
00:03:37.380 that I don't think you've seen this clip.
00:03:39.260 Have you guys seen this clip?
00:03:40.060 Tom, have you seen it?
00:03:41.100 Tom, have you seen the clip with Anthony Hopkins?
00:03:42.960 I can't wait for you to see it.
00:03:44.120 And I want to have a little bit of conversation with it.
00:03:46.380 But while we're in California, on this topic of California,
00:03:50.120 for some of you guys that are not for Gavin Newsom, I have a vote for you. 0.95
00:03:56.240 Katie Porter, guys, she's a freaking rock star. 1.00
00:03:58.820 And she's back. 0.97
00:03:59.920 Yes.
00:04:00.480 She is back with a vengeance.
00:04:03.240 Can you imagine?
00:04:04.060 She's been controlling all that anger and rage, and it's not good to keep it.
00:04:08.420 It's not.
00:04:08.760 You've got to let it out.
00:04:09.920 Let it fly.
00:04:10.420 Folks, in California, if you're looking for a hardcore liberal candidate
00:04:14.600 that believes in her crazy ideas, but she's got that temper, that rage, 1.00
00:04:20.500 that is very fit for TV, you cannot let an opportunity like this go away
00:04:25.660 without her getting more TV time.
00:04:28.260 Here's the great Katie Porter. 1.00
00:04:29.480 Go ahead, Rob.
00:04:30.240 Simple, powerful message that we can all agree on.
00:04:33.500 This is her campaign.
00:04:34.160 Say it with me.
00:04:35.420 Are you ready?
00:04:36.040 Three, one, two, three.
00:04:41.620 Yeah, that's right. 1.00
00:04:43.620 Fuck Trump. 1.00
00:04:45.780 But you know Gavin's in the crowd like, man, me and my brothers, 1.00
00:04:48.180 we don't know how to read, woman. 0.99
00:04:49.600 Wait, wait, wait.
00:04:49.920 Let me ask a question.
00:04:50.740 What does that say, woman? 1.00
00:04:51.480 Let me ask a question.
00:04:53.360 By the way, this is not a joke, folks.
00:04:54.880 California gets billions and billions in dollars from the federal government.
00:04:57.600 So she gets elected governor, taking Gavin Newsom's spot because he's leaving to run for president.
00:05:05.420 Oh, God.
00:05:05.980 So how does she work with the president? 0.98
00:05:09.120 You need to get relief.
00:05:10.300 You need to get it.
00:05:11.080 By the way, we also know that they got $21 billion recently for homelessness
00:05:15.040 that they basically stole from the federal government,
00:05:17.520 and now they're taxing their own businesses on it.
00:05:19.820 But what do you do?
00:05:20.580 How do you do that?
00:05:22.080 Pat, where's the logic?
00:05:23.720 Where's the logic of running a message like that?
00:05:25.840 Did you say logic, Tom?
00:05:27.400 Logic?
00:05:28.020 That's not a word they know how to.
00:05:30.680 Where's the logic?
00:05:31.720 You got to say, where's the emotion?
00:05:34.140 That's emotion.
00:05:35.900 Look at their, like, if you think about their, just look at their,
00:05:38.380 just from those two clips from her and Gavin, okay, 0.99
00:05:42.260 pandering to a black crowd and basically saying, I'm dumb like y'all. 0.99
00:05:46.060 Her message is, I'm running for California governor. 1.00
00:05:48.980 F Trump.
00:05:50.300 That's all they have, guys.
00:05:52.120 Zero.
00:05:52.340 And then when you ask the governor, the sitting governor who's sitting there
00:05:55.140 about how horrible the state is, you know what he says?
00:05:57.860 No, no, we're actually number four and this, and look at my hands.
00:06:01.200 They have nothing, Pat.
00:06:02.820 They have nothing.
00:06:03.720 Remember, it's all anti-Trump.
00:06:05.680 And I mentioned this at the beginning.
00:06:07.200 I'm sorry, when we were in the back.
00:06:08.240 I keep hearing this thing left and right.
00:06:11.580 Every time, guys, you hear left or right, and we talked about this.
00:06:14.120 I saw this on the internet.
00:06:15.340 In the Bible, this is over 3,000 years ago, it said,
00:06:18.200 in Ecclesiastes 10, chapter 10, verse 2,
00:06:21.700 the heart of the wise inclines to the right, 0.98
00:06:24.860 but the heart of the fool to the left. 1.00
00:06:27.580 Stop being fooled by these people, these leftists, 1.00
00:06:31.140 these people that don't care about you. 1.00
00:06:33.220 They don't care about the freaking country. 0.99
00:06:35.140 It's about power, and it's all about them. 0.98
00:06:37.980 Mind you, she's going to be the governor. 1.00
00:06:39.880 You know that's her. 0.90
00:06:40.500 She's the frontrunner.
00:06:41.680 Is she the frontrunner?
00:06:42.680 Where's Kelsey? 1.00
00:06:43.800 What does Kelsey say on that? 1.00
00:06:45.180 Hold on.
00:06:45.480 Who is this lady, by the way? 1.00
00:06:46.640 No, I'm saying Kim Porter.
00:06:48.300 Katie Porter.
00:06:48.780 Katie, whatever.
00:06:49.400 Stop bringing Diddy's wife up to this. 0.98
00:06:50.940 So there's an Iowa Senate campaign ad
00:06:53.600 that is basically the same message as Katie Porter.
00:06:56.100 The entire commercial is F-Trump.
00:06:57.740 Is this a commercial?
00:06:59.220 Yeah, this is an ad.
00:07:00.340 It's not running on television.
00:07:01.740 It's running online due to the language.
00:07:04.180 Let me see it. 1.00
00:07:04.220 Fuck Trump. 1.00
00:07:05.140 Oh, my God. 1.00
00:07:05.620 Vote Juliana. 1.00
00:07:06.660 Fuck Trump. 1.00
00:07:07.680 Vote Juliana. 1.00
00:07:08.920 Fuck Trump. 1.00
00:07:10.160 Vote Juliana. 1.00
00:07:11.240 They said it, not me.
00:07:12.720 I'm Juliana Stratton,
00:07:14.080 and I'm proud to have lived my whole life
00:07:16.040 on the south side of Chicago.
00:07:17.780 I'm not scared of a wannabe dictator.
00:07:19.900 I'm running for Senate to stand up to Donald Trump.
00:07:22.780 I'll abolish ICE and hold Trump accountable
00:07:25.260 for the crimes he's committed,
00:07:26.820 just like they said. 1.00
00:07:28.140 Fuck Trump. 1.00
00:07:29.520 Fuck Trump. 1.00
00:07:30.140 Fuck Trump. 1.00
00:07:30.900 Vote Juliana. 1.00
00:07:32.260 That's why I approve this message.
00:07:34.220 They were both robbed two minutes after this video.
00:07:35.660 What is she running for exactly? 0.93
00:07:36.960 Senator in Illinois.
00:07:38.260 Senator of Illinois.
00:07:39.360 Rob, can you go to Cal-She?
00:07:40.800 State or federal?
00:07:42.080 I don't know.
00:07:43.140 Can you go to Cal-She?
00:07:44.220 Why do you ask?
00:07:45.580 No, I'm just wondering.
00:07:46.860 Go to Cal-She, California governor,
00:07:48.820 to see who's at the top.
00:07:51.500 Cal-She, Gavin Newsom, Green, Swalwell is at the top.
00:07:56.520 Oh, God, no.
00:07:57.160 Where's Katie Porter? 1.00
00:07:58.500 Go a little bit lower?
00:07:59.980 I don't think she's on the list at all,
00:08:01.780 but she's right there.
00:08:02.620 Here's my girl.
00:08:03.580 Guys, we got work to do.
00:08:05.200 No, so she's not anywhere close.
00:08:07.740 No, Adam, she's a woman.
00:08:09.280 She's going to get up there. 0.86
00:08:09.980 Matt Mahan, Steve Hilton,
00:08:12.780 and you got a few of Chad Bianco.
00:08:14.400 By the way, I'd like to see Chad Bianco
00:08:15.900 get more and more momentum.
00:08:17.460 She'll win.
00:08:18.660 Chad Bianco is somebody that has good ideas,
00:08:23.940 good policies.
00:08:24.540 Hopefully, he'll get some momentum getting up there.
00:08:26.220 Oh, Pat.
00:08:27.080 Adam, thoughts?
00:08:28.040 He's got no chance.
00:08:29.780 He's a Republican.
00:08:31.580 So unless his name is the governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger,
00:08:34.360 a Republican has no chance in California.
00:08:37.000 And this is what happens when you have a one-party state.
00:08:39.800 You know, a lot of people say that, you know,
00:08:41.840 United States Congress, we're living in a uniparty.
00:08:44.140 It's a uniparty.
00:08:44.940 Everyone, it's the uniparty.
00:08:47.140 They fight behind closed doors.
00:08:49.500 They're on the same team.
00:08:50.300 That's what it is.
00:08:51.260 We're looking at what a one-party state will do.
00:08:55.420 So, you know, what's the difference
00:08:56.760 between California and China
00:08:58.300 or California and Russia?
00:09:00.900 There's not a lot.
00:09:02.400 Because when it's one party,
00:09:04.400 they're in control.
00:09:05.840 That's it.
00:09:06.880 You can pretend to do stuff.
00:09:08.220 You can pretend to be a Republican
00:09:09.340 and try to win.
00:09:10.860 But a Republican has no chance.
00:09:14.220 When's the last time a Republican
00:09:15.180 did anything meaningful in California?
00:09:17.260 Is it Schwarzenegger?
00:09:20.560 Is that when it happened?
00:09:21.600 I don't know.
00:09:22.180 I don't know.
00:09:22.700 But you remember when it was one of the monarchs
00:09:27.120 in the UAE was basically saying,
00:09:31.060 comparing UAE to the United States.
00:09:33.640 And it's like, we've got all this,
00:09:35.680 United States has this.
00:09:36.700 We have got all this, United States has this.
00:09:38.540 But here, we have one party.
00:09:40.440 And that's a challenge.
00:09:42.300 Because if you fall out of line
00:09:44.180 and fall out of favor with a party,
00:09:45.760 that's it.
00:09:47.440 At least in the United States,
00:09:48.260 you have a two-party system.
00:09:49.780 California has a one-party system.
00:09:52.200 And unfortunately, a Republican has no chance.
00:09:55.100 And didn't they do something
00:09:56.340 with the gerrymandering and everything like that
00:09:58.600 and the redistricting in California
00:09:59.900 and made it even worse?
00:10:01.220 So I don't see California getting better anytime soon.
00:10:05.880 Yeah, I mean, it's not going to help
00:10:07.260 if they do the gerrymandering and become 48-4.
00:10:10.800 It's a losing proposition.
00:10:13.740 Two states that they want to lock up
00:10:15.880 the left and the right is California and Texas.
00:10:18.520 They don't even want it to be a discussion.
00:10:20.340 And they're doing the same thing.
00:10:21.240 They're both gerrymandering.
00:10:23.080 But we'll see.
00:10:23.660 We'll see what'll happen.
00:10:24.480 We'll see what'll happen with California.
00:10:26.020 For the last seven or eight days,
00:10:28.420 we've been at the Magic Show in Las Vegas.
00:10:30.320 And we're currently at Italy at the Maikam Show,
00:10:34.260 the Milan Show,
00:10:34.980 the show that everybody shows up,
00:10:37.300 Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Hermes, everybody.
00:10:40.500 And you know who was there this year?
00:10:42.080 Future Looks Bright shoes.
00:10:43.400 There.
00:10:44.260 We sent Pete, Leo, and Michele.
00:10:47.580 Went over there having a great time.
00:10:49.720 Go ahead and give them an update
00:10:50.380 on what's going on with these FLB shoes
00:10:51.960 in Vegas at the Magic Show as well as Maikam.
00:10:54.360 Go ahead, Rob.
00:11:00.320 I just can't get it.
00:11:23.940 Okay, by the way,
00:11:26.540 you know what I'm wearing today?
00:11:27.600 Clean.
00:11:28.060 Again, let me say this to you guys.
00:11:30.320 I'm wearing my brown ones, okay?
00:11:32.680 Future Looks Bright.
00:11:34.100 Vinny's wearing his black ones, okay?
00:11:36.600 From September 9th,
00:11:38.500 when I tell you from September 9th till today,
00:11:40.920 I've only worn these shoes except for five days,
00:11:44.720 that's all I wear.
00:11:45.700 Five days, okay?
00:11:47.180 And I love them.
00:11:48.440 They're so comfortable.
00:11:49.600 Every day, this is all I wear.
00:11:52.080 For some of you guys that are asking questions about shoes,
00:11:55.120 we haven't done a CTA for a couple weeks
00:11:56.720 because it sells out every time we do them, okay?
