State of Gaza and Israel, Paramount merger finalized, Irvine ranked-choice voting and more

It's Air Talk on LAist 89.3 in the LAist app.

Just a reminder again, tomorrow evening live at 7 o'clock here on LAist 89.3 in the LAist app that we bring you our ballot cram session.

Every two years when we're faced with these massive California ballots, we walk through LAist listeners and readers online.

all of the ballot propositions in numeric order so that you can have that as a primer to help you in your preparation.

We don't by any means mean that it should be the last word on information you take in to make your decision, but we think it's a great starting place, a primer, if you will.

Our ballot cram session which airs tomorrow night live at 7 o'clock from our Crawford Family Forum.

The event is sold out, so there's no more capacity.

If you don't have a ticket, I'm sorry that we're full, but you can hear it live.

It'll also air Thursday morning at 10 here on LAist 89.3 and the LAist app.

So our question for you today is, what is the oldest thing that you used, you still use, because it serves the purpose better than a more modern replacement? We're at 866-893-5722.

And I want to clarify, this is not like the family heirloom that...

I've got some beautiful kerosene lamps that were my great-grandparents, but I don't use those.

I don't even know where to get kerosene.

But there are things that are decades old that I still use.

I still have a transistor radio that I've probably had for 40 years.

And sometimes when I take the dog out and walk, I throw a battery in it and still use that transistor radio.

That's sort of an honor.

The first thing I ever bought with my own money at age five, which was a battery-operated radio.

Transistor Radio.

I don't have that one, but I have an old one.

So what is it for you? 866-893-5722.

Our associate producer for AirTalk, Peyton Seda, has such an item.

Peyton, what is it for you you're still using?

Yeah.

Yeah, I still wear a sixth grade graduation t-shirt.
