Chapter 1: What caused the LA fires?

600.973 - 627.269 Tim Dillon

For this arsonist, okay? The man has been arrested on a felony probation violation, but no further details were given at the press conference. The investigation is ongoing. I'm going to read you a text that I got from Eli Roth, who is a director. He directed the movie Thanksgiving that I was in. He said this. 4 p.m.

on Wednesday on Outpost Drive, a homeless man poured gasoline down the sewer grate and lit it on fire. By total coincidence, someone from the gas company saw him do this and called the fire department. They put it out. The neighbors were all saying, what kind of mentally disturbed person would do this? What kind of homeless person walks around with a can of gasoline lighting fires?

You just don't go back to the park and shoot up after that. Then two hours later, out of nowhere, with no burning embers near us, Runyon goes up. We watch it from our bedroom window, a little smoke, and then five minutes later, the whole hill on fire. So these are people I know, real people witnessing this behavior. Homeless man with flamethrower busted on suspicion of arson near L.A.

672.332 - 678.077 Co-Host

Let's watch a little bit of this because it may become clear, and we don't know yet.

678.217 - 700.635 Tim Dillon

I'm speculating. I don't know anything. It may become clear this is a coordinated attack. It may not be. It may be a series of random psychos taking advantage of the weather conditions. It may be... Cells, terrorist cells that have embedded themselves in the country. People that posed as refugees or posed as homeless people. I don't know. These are all possibilities that are all on the table.

701.015 - 707.919 Tim Dillon

This could be a massive failure of a power company that's trying to cover it up. I don't know. Let's take a look at this here. What is this?

707.959 - 745.629 Co-Host

This is a homeless guy. Do we have volume on this or no? No. No. Is this the guy that was caught with the five cell phones? Do we know that? Can we look that up and see if that's true or not? That guy doesn't look that homeless, by the way. I don't know how homeless that guy is, but he doesn't look that homeless. People in LA have to wake up a little bit.

746.636 - 772.491 Tim Dillon

They have to wake up a little bit because it's not apparent what's going on. What we do know is that a tremendous amount of the city, we're having Adam Carolla on very soon. He's lived in LA forever and he has thoughts on this as well as to why this is happening, the way it is happening. And I'm not claiming that this is, that we know. They said the Palisades fire started in a house.

Chapter 2: How did the wildfires affect residents?

2212.529 - 2251.789 Co-Host

The Capitol riot happened because no one had anything to watch. You need to go back to making things that are good. There's enough people that come to LA to be exploited. You do not have to force them. You don't need to do that. I'm telling you, there's enough people. Are these the celebrities whose homes? Jeff Bridges, great. Adam Brody and Leighton Meister, eh. Billy Crystal, great.

2252.728 - 2286.222 Co-Host

Carrie Elwes, don't know. Anna Faris, don't care. Mel Gibson, great. John Goodman, great. Brian Greenberg and Jamie Chung, don't know, don't care. Jennifer Gray, eh. Paris Hilton, don't care. Anthony Hopkins, great. Pozoma St. John, sad. Taryn Killiam and Kobe Smulders. Meh. Sorry. Tina Knowles, Beyonce's mother.

2286.602 - 2309.644 Tim Dillon

Eh. Ricky Lake. Didn't retweet my thing. Fuck her. No, when the show came out, she didn't retweet it. Fuck her. Sandra Lee. Sad. Eugene Levy. Love. Cameron Matheson. Who's that? Is that the fat chick from the practice? No, that's Cameron Mannheim. Sorry. Keep going. Rosie O'Donnell, she'll be fine. I think she's got a great thing in Miami. Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag, sad.

2309.765 - 2337.868 Tim Dillon

They came to a show of mine once. Melissa Rivers, sad, loved her mother. Candy Spelling, lunatic. Miles Teller, sad, great actor. Milo Ventimiglia, great actor. Diane Warrant, sad. James Wood, stop crying. All right, that's all. But what about Tim Dillon? Email, who was that? Vanity Fair. Email Vanity Fair, Tim Dillon's house burned down with his family in it they would kill. And they died.

2338.428 - 2359.688 Tim Dillon

Email Vanity Fair, my family's dead. And a nice photo of me, not that fucking crap from Getty Images they always use, these scumbag media enemies of mine. We're going to deal with that at the inauguration. I'm going to say I need somebody to get in there to get Getty Images and get some of these people. But email them and let them know my house is burned down and my family is dead.

2360.549 - 2389.119 Tim Dillon

Tim Dillon's house burns down. And the only reason he couldn't save his family was he was saving a family of color. I went to save the family of color next door and my white family died. Email Vanity Fair that, please. And they could call me. I will do an interview about it. Email every publication that I've lost my house. And I was saving a black family up my block. So my own family died.

2390.18 - 2392.963 Tim Dillon

What is the update on the fires now? What are they doing? They're going to roll into Brentwood?

2392.983 - 2401.93 Co-Host

They better not. I hope people see this is what it is here as a mess.

2402.091 - 2422.584 Tim Dillon

I'm trying to be hopeful. I think the city is down for the count for a little bit. I'm a little worried that some of my friends don't seem to realize the scope of this. It needs a total overhaul. This isn't just, like, a thing. This is a deeply structural issue, and you've got to make lots of changes. And it's no good to just go climate change.
