We are on every day from one until 4 o'clock. And then after 4 o'clock, John Cobalt show on demand on the IHeart app.

Oh, you got a lot of good stuff on the show today, including in a half an hour.

We're going to talk with Daniel Gus. Daniel Gus, you can go to his news site, Daniel Gus at substack.com.

The LA Times has been hit with a $24 million lawsuit for not paying the rent on its old building in downtown LA.

They called it the Olympic plant.

That's their printing plant.

And they moved out of there last year and they left behind a terrible mess and didn't pay the rent according to the landlord.

So, yeah, Patrick Sunshion, the billionaire, is being hit with a lawsuit for not paying the rent for the L.A.

Times and leaving the building in gross disrepairs.

That's with Daniel Gus after 1.30 now.

I've got good news here because I always, actually, I'm a pretty optimistic person, naturally.

Because I think even when things are bad, if there's enough will exerted, enough energy exerted,

things can get better.

And I don't have, I don't have patience for people who moan about their situation in life.

I really don't.

You do something.

If you do something, you can make it better every day,

every hour. But you have to take action. That's why I have like zero tolerance for people who are

laying in the streets and they won't even get the free help that's being offered by the rest of us.

You know, at some point, it's like, you know, just get out of here. Go away. No compassion.

Because you can always take action to prevent yourself from getting in some kind of spiral.
