Megyn begins the show by calling out the “moron” Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass over her stumbles after returning from Ghana, reading the letters “URL” instead of a website to help with the deadly wildfires, the incompetence of Bass and Gov. Gavin Newsom, the embarrassing moment when ABC News’ David Muir was caught trying to make himself look slimmer on camera while covering the wildfire damage, a flashback to a hilariously vain Dan Rather moment, and more.
Then, legendary actor James Woods joins to discuss his personal story of evacuating from the L.A. wildfires, putting the incredible devastation into perspective, the incompetent leadership in the city and state, how mismanagement led to the terrible damage, setting politics aside during disasters, the humanity he has seen during this trying time, what lack of preparation caused this devastation, and more.
Then, Adam Carolla, host of The Adam Carolla Show, joins to talk about his experience evacuating, the pragmatic way he plans to go about rebuilding from the devastation, the consequences of a focus on diversity within the Los Angeles Fire Department, the incompetent leadership in L.A. and California, the challenge of rebuilding with all the red tape and bureaucracy, the billions California wasted on a failed high speed rail system, and more.
Finally, Megyn reflects on the devastation, the policies that led us to this moment, the need for liberals in California to see this as a wake-up call, and the importance of perspective in trying moments like this.
