BHS - 8A - New CA Laws | Fingerless Man Keeps Explosives in Freezer Jan 01, 2025

Show notes

Wayne Resnick fills in for Bill Handel.
Wayne discusses new laws that take effect on Jan. 1, including an increase to the minimum wage, no more "legacy" admissions for college applicants, and child actor protection now extend to online child influencers.
Also, Wayne makes fun of a fingerless man for keeping several explosives in his freezer (next to the Bomb Pops, I'm sure). And random weirdos are waiting in line to drink water that a deer likely peed in. Ok, seriously, not everything is better "raw."

BHS - 7A- Illegal Border Crossings at a 4-Year Low | Happiness Survey Jan 01, 2025

Show notes

Wayne Resnick fills in for Bill Handel.
Wayne talks about the factors leading to the lowest number of illegal border crossings for a single month in four years (thanks Trump!). Also, a long-term survey focusing on people's happiness will be undertaken to determine what people can do to reliably increase feelings of happiness.
Waynes gives his two cents on Trump's proposed tariffs, and the new, trendy, hotness: running... a lot of it. More and more people are participating in marathons. Maybe that's why Wayne is retiring... he is taking up marathon running. Go, Wayne, go!!!

Wayne on the News Jan 01, 2025

Show notes

Wayne Resnick fills in for Bill Handel.
Breaking news: 10 dead, 30+ injured in New Orleans after a driver plowed through a New Years' Eve crowd on Bourbon St.. The driver is dead, following a shootout with police. Two police officers were injured in what New Orleans' Mayor LaToya Cantrell calls a "terrorist attack."
Also, California is experiencing the 2nd dryest season on record (thanks La Nina!), California FINALLY picks its state crustacean (the noble Dungenous Crab), the state slug (the honorable Banana Slug), and the state seashell (the dignified Black Abalone). And a 1-month old, onesie-clad Spider Monkey was pulled over for driving without a license... in a Rolls Royce???
I have so many questions...
