The John Kobylt Show Hour 3 (05/08) - John starts the hour outraged over the California Assembly's refusal to pass a bill that would make it a felony to buy 16- and 17-year-olds for sex. He slams the lobbyists and sex workers who rallied against the bill and calls out the Assembly for catering to perverts and pedophiles. Then, John takes aim at the crumbling state of America’s air travel infrastructure, ripping into the FAA for still relying on 35-year-old tech like copper wires and floppy disks. He praises Sec. Sean Duffy’s efforts to modernize but questions why Biden let this slide. Later, John circles back to “Lyin’ Karen Bass,” revisiting more of her jaw-dropping falsehoods from the Milken Institute panel and ends the hour torching the mayor’s shameless spin.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Lyin' Karen Bass (05/08)
The John Kobylt Show Hour 1 (05/08) - John kicks off the hour ridiculing the pomp and circumstance surrounding the new Pope—though he admits he’s planning to dress his dog Leo in a Pope Halloween costume. Then, he takes aim at Mayor Karen Bass (dubbed "Lyin' Karen") for her dishonesty about the empty Pacific Palisades reservoir, which was built specifically for fire protection. John plays audio from Bass’s panel with Fox LA's Elex Michaelson, slamming her excuses and her defense of LADWP head Janisse Quiñones’ outrageous $750K salary. Later, John highlights Joe Biden’s obvious cognitive decline, playing a telling moment from The View where Jill Biden had to step in mid-answer. And wrapping the hour: a Florida woman vanishes after her canoe is flipped by an alligator. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Newsom More Focused On DC Than CA (05/08)
The John Kobylt Show Hour 2 (05/08) - John rips into a brutal new poll showing most Californians believe Governor Gavin Newsom is more focused on his presidential ambitions than doing his job. Even 3 out of 4 voters say he’s done nothing to help the state—and only 41% of Democrats think he's trying. John compares Newsom’s declining popularity to rising stars like Governors Whitmer, Shapiro, and Bashir, and highlights South Carolinians’ brutal take on him. Then it’s onto California’s soaring gas prices—with new reports suggesting prices could hit $9 per gallon—and Newsom’s failed energy policies are to blame. Then, John exposes Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara’s taxpayer-funded world tour, missing key state duties along the way. Wrapping the hour, John reacts to sex workers showing up in Sacramento to oppose legislation that would finally outlaw the purchase of 16- and 17-year-olds for sex.
