Adults On Ride-Along Luggage? 

By Gary and Shannon

January 6, 2026

Gary & Shannon break down what journalist Jacob Soboroff calls a “new age of disaster” as he reflects on covering wildfires a year later — and why the rules of catastrophe reporting may be changing. 

The show then turns to the destruction of Hollywood’s historic Rock ’n’ Roll Motel, allegedly sparked by squatters, and what’s lost when LA history goes up in flames. 

Plus: public broadcasting votes itself out of existence, theme park chaos spills into talkbacks, and Gary & Shannon take on the growing menace of adults riding suitcase scooters in airports everywhere.
