during this exchange, it would've been great if there were timestamps, because I believe through the voice change, that at 1400hrs local, the ATC shift changes. A very critical time when one controller changes an emergency over to new shift.

The KZread channel L.A Flights caught the landing and emergency vehicles during their live stream. The stream is saved on their channel. You can use the local time clock on bottom right corner of their live to scroll to the event time.

I'm curious about why an overweight aircraft would switch to a shorter runway for landing, since a longer runway would presumably allow for less-aggressive braking and thus reduce the chance for overheating. I'm sure there was a reason, since the change was at the request of the pilots, but I don't know what it might have been.

That's a rich and creamy explanation to an inflight problem, Fact is once the crew decides who flies and who gets out the irregular operations manual, all the initial corrective action comes from that procedure, and completing the checklist. After completing the checklist, you can call the company. You see now you have something to report to the company. The decision on who flies and if it's possible to do the flight comes mainly from the crew. International flights are more restrictive on what has to be operational to take an aircraft overwater. The copilot's display can be displayed on the captain's screens but as in a case I was involved in, if you have a lack of cooling to the captain's instruments you will never be able to get them to display images or information much as when you leave your i phone out in the sun.
