| 0:00.0 | KFI AM 640. You're listening to the John and Ken Show on demand on the Iheart Radio app. |
| 0:06.0 | The biggest news today, again, holiday weekends, the news tends to be travel, shopping, leftovers, that kind of thing. |
| 0:16.6 | But there's significant, real, hard news today, and that is what's happening in Israel. |
| 0:23.2 | As the temporary ceasefire got underway today, and we saw 24 hostages freed from Hamas as part of a swap. |
| 0:34.6 | There were 39, I don't know if they want to call them prisoners, I guess, coming from |
| 0:39.1 | Israel. And I don't know if that's, honestly, I don't want to get into the my side, your side |
| 0:45.7 | bit of all of it. So I don't know when they say they release 39 prisoners if those are |
| 0:51.2 | viewed by Palestinians as hostages or if they're prisoners for |
| 0:55.4 | something else, I don't know. |

| 1:24.9 | A statement from Schneider Children's Hospital where four women and four child |
| 1:28.2 | hostages were released said the doctors had conducted a preliminary examination, said they |
| 1:31.6 | were all in good physical condition. So that's great news. It means it sounds like they're not |
| 1:37.7 | being tortured or anything else like that. So that's really good news. The mental anguish is plenty. |
| 1:43.8 | The prime minister there in Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, says that they have received a new list of hostages that are going to be released tomorrow. |
| 1:54.9 | Now, the reason this is important is that as they get a list of the hostages to be released, then they notify families, here's who's coming home, here, you can be ready, let's get you to the hospital, let's have you ready to go. Obviously, the families are related. |
