People are concerned that a Warner Bros merger with Netflix, or Paramount, will cost jobs in Hollywood following the consolidation. Reports claim 74% of consumers have canceled streaming services this past year because they’re too expensive, or they’re moving to an ad-supported platform. Actor Andy Dick OD’d on a Hollywood street and thankfully survived, and filmmaker Carl Rinsch, who directed “47 Ronan,” has been convicted of fraud and money laundering, ripping Netflix to the tune of $55 million. A new poll suggests 63% of people believe a four-year college degree ain’t worth it anymore.

A federal judge has ruled the National Guard, who were sent to the state earlier this year to quell protests against ICE, must get out of California, and President Trump is pushing back against that order. Today in Anaheim, a group of students on a school track team who were on a group run were ploughed into by an out-of-control vehicle. The driver is under investigation for a DUI. And in Sunland, an electric school bus caught fire below an underpass. We’re not used to having fires with this new technology, and Tesla engineers even gave fire training to law enforcement, in case the lithium-ion battery caught fire. Merrill reminisces about that time in the early ’90s when Dateline placed rockets on a Chevy truck. This week, at a John Wayne Airport in Orange County, a security guard got behind the vehicle of a civilian Camry and sped down the tarmac, overtaking taxying airplanes, due to an apparent “medical emergency.” See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We're talking cool scars, and no one has a cooler scar than KFI tech director The Foosh, following his dangerous car accident last August that nearly resulted in his arm being amputated. Video game chain store GameStop had a national Trade Anything Day, in which customers could bring in anything smaller than a breadbox and trade it for $5 in store credit. There were more than 80,000 trade-ins. Remember the cola wars of the 1970s and ’80s? It was Coca Cola vs. Pepsi, and Coke nearly got trounced when the brand changed its recipe to release New Coke in the mid-’80s. Now, a 120-year-old cola is making a comeback. That sweet drink? Royal Crown Cola! Secretary of State Marco Rubio is under pressure to admit we’ve made UFO contact. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Will the DOJ approve this deal? Media consolidation is not good for consumers, creatives and workers, as it limits opportunities for all. Gov. Gavin Newsom is involved in a... leg-crossing scandal? Shannon Farren calls in to talk about all things NFL including the Chargers, quarterback Justin Herbert playing through injury, and Indiana football.

The Foosh is back! Following his horrific car accident last August, KFI board op Foosh’s arm is healing, as is nature. LA is getting ready to clean up dangerous, inoperable RVs — if they’re worth under $4,000. Eniola Taiwo, an 8th grader in Connecticut, sent a letter to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce requesting a star on the Walk of Fame for the LAFD. And it worked! Westwood's most hardened criminal has been brought to justice. His crime? Painted over faded crosswalks to make them safer for pedestrians. If you own a cat, there’s a new California law that’s taking away the one thing that’s protected your furniture for decades. Starting Jan. 1, AB 867 comes into effect, banning the practice of declawing cats in the state. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Waymo is causing traffic chaos around the country, including in school zones. In San Francisco, a driverless Waymo got stuck on one of the dead-end streets, and was soon followed by two other Waymo's, ending in a driverless stalemate that blocked the street.

Medicare wants to use AI to look at your medical insurance claims. Disney Cigna is being sued for using AI, denying hundreds of thousands of claims without physician review.

To more on Hollywood consolidation and the Netflix purchase of Warner Bros. Discovery, “combining their synergy for the ultimate customer experience.” Jimmy Kimmel’s contract with ABC has been renewed by ABC for another year. Gene Simmons got horny and flirty on air while talking to a TV news anchor. Imagine taking a DNA test to find out about your ethnic background — and instead, you inherit a lawsuit. Surprise heirs are showing up because they took a DNA test and are demanding inheritance from deceased estates. Planet Earth is basically surrounded by flying garbage. For that reason, we humans may never travel into outer space. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
For #TrueCrimeTuesday, the NY Post’s wild exclusive takes center stage: a nepo-baby accused of killing his girlfriend and immediately calling Dad to lawyer up.
