Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to kf
I Am six forty the Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app. Your hair is mussed up,
as my grandmother would say, his hair is all must up.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Therapy must do that to you. Huh. Yeah, it's from
my head on the cop like that. Bottom of the hour,
we're going to get into what you watch. On Wednesday,
I found a show, not convinced yet that it's the
right show for me. There's two shows that I'm dueling
with right now on Apple TV, and I'm not sure
which one is better.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
There.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Both of them, I say, would are not tens yet,
but there is there is some room to improve, and
I'm optimistic about both of them.

Speaker 3 (00:43):
So we'll talk about that. Also, you all, everybody.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
Remembers the the very demure, very mindful.

Speaker 4 (00:50):
Very demure, very mindful.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
I know it's old, but.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
If she said it, don't you think she should get
the trade that?

Speaker 3 (01:02):
Yes, yes, But I.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
Also think it's worth nothing because everyone's already on.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
To the next thing.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
What is the next thing?

Speaker 2 (01:07):
I don't even know because I'm.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
Not on TikTok because I don't let China have access
to my life, what.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
Else is going on? Time for what's happening? Wow.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
Arlington National Cemetery confirms a photography related incident happened during
a visit by former President Trump on Monday. MPR reported
there was a physical altercation between Trump's staffers and a
official who tried to prevent filming and photographing in an
area where recently killed soldiers are buried. In a statement,

(01:40):
the cemetery said federal law prohibits political campaign or election
related activities within Army, National Military Army, National Military National
Cemeteries that was written wrong, added that it shared the
law with Trump's team. Trump's campaign is denied there was
a physical altercation, as described said a private photographer was

(02:03):
permitted on the premises. Trump was there to mark the
third anniversary of the Kabble terrorist attack.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
And I feel like Trump wrote the statement himself. From
the campaign, an unnamed individual clearly suffering from a mental
health episode, decided to physically block members of Trump's team
during a very solemn ceremony. According to the campaign the
Trump campaign, they have video to prove.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
Their side of it.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
So locally, Birmingham High School evacuated this morning because of
a threat the school got a threat over the phone,
good the good old fashioned way, just about nine o'clock
this morning about a possible shooting on campus. No reports
of any shooting, obviously. The school was evacuated during following
the phone call, and they are not saying yet when

(02:52):
classes are going to resume. People keep dying at Grand Canyon. Yeah,
eighty year old guy died just Sunday in the Grid Canyon.
His boat flipped and dropped him into the rapids on
the Colorado River.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
What a way to go live in the nature. Well,
so your oats.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
I guess you could say he died doing what he loved,
but struggling to breathe while being tossed around under the
rapids probably not what he loved doing.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
I don't know that sounds like a valiant death. It's
the fifth fatality.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
Was he saving other people at the time, That would
be a valiant death.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
Fifth fatality recorded Ingrand Canyon in less than one month.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
Man, I feel like Silmar is kind of like Los
Angeles's Florida. The LA Department of Water and Power was
forced to turn off power to more than a thousand
homes yesterday after a man climbed a pole in sill Mar.
This he refused to climb down. They said he was
not suicidal, and they believed was he was either high
or drunk. Maybe a ding dong on that one still

(03:52):
hanging dangerously close to power lines, He pulled out what
appeared to be a pipe and smoked it. Let the
man climb the pole. Just leot man climbed the pole.
This is America, isn't it. I don't know if the
owner of Langer's deli complimented her on her dress at
the Olympics. But Mayor Karen Bass is she gonna save it.

(04:15):
Karen Bass sat down with Norm Langer to talk about
his concerns about the neighborhood around MacArthur Park, where in
fact Langer's Deli is. He had said to Steve Lopez
in the La Times. It generated some headlines that he
was thinking about closing his legendary deli because of the
conditions in the streets outside.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
We've got more cocaine on the beach in Florida. Package
containing sixteen bricks of cocaine was found on a beach
in the Florida Keys by tourists. They turned it over,
They did not sell it. They did not turn it
around and repackage it and sell it on the street,
missing a great opportunity to make some money.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
Earlier this month, Hurricane Debbie blew twenty five packages of
cocaine onto a beach in the Keys. Border Patrol said
at the time the drugs weighed about seventy pounds worth
over a million dollars, was found by a good samaritan
who turned it in.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Tonight, the Dodgers take on the Orioles at Dodger Stadium,
first pitch at seven. Listen to every play of every
Dodger's game on AM five seventy LA Sports, stream all
games NHD on the iHeartRadio app Keyword AM five seventy
LA Sports powered by LA Care for.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
All of LA. Trademark laws are both very demure and
very mindful.

Speaker 4 (05:30):
Very demure, very mindful.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
But Jules Lebron, I think is her name, the woman
who said that she's fighting to trademark the thing. She said,
we'll talk about that. How you trademark a meme? And
is it even worth it?

Speaker 3 (05:44):
These days?

Speaker 2 (05:45):
I can't wait to hear you explain that to me.

Speaker 5 (05:48):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
What is it about dentist appointments that just make I
just dread them? I just dread it wasn't bad teeth cleaning.
It's not a root canal.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
Even without X rays or the suction machine working, it didn't.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
It wasn't bad, right, So why do we sit here
and just dread it like you were dreading it yesterday
at this time, I'm dreading it now.

Speaker 4 (06:13):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
I think it's because you wanted a nap yesterday.

Speaker 3 (06:16):
I did, I really did, I know, I really.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
I can always tell when you when you need a
nap and you don't get to be put down.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
Uh, and I I had that thing going where my
eyes were kind of like no, yeah, yeah, like that
well they were, Man, it was tough. But everything's fine.
I think you'll be fine. You're done at the pointment
will be fine. I'm not a big napper, so that
won't be the problem. That's not that won't be the problem.
Remember the remember the Winnie the Pooh movie that came
out blood Oh, the horror was, Yes.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
There's a news there's a new twist on Pinocchio as well. Uh.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
It's called Pinocchio Unstrung. And the poster shows the wooden
puppet walking off frame with a trail of destruction in
his wake, a hand covered with blood stabbed with a
knife while Pinocchio's strings lay twisted and broke it on
the floor, and the tagline is there's nothing holding him back.

(07:16):
That sounds cheesy. It's gonna be awful, but it will
be fun. For the first time in nearly ten years,
one of the landmark Vegas Strip hotel is gonna okay,
I have to sneeze. Yeah, And it went away because
you pay attention to it.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
You don't need it that much.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
The Tropicana will be imploded October nine. It should have
been imploded in nineteen ninety eight. One of the oldest,
one of the most storied hotels on the Strip closed
back in April to make way for the proposed proposed
Oakland A's Stadium. Bally's is teaming up with A's the
A's to ask for permission to host a commemorative of

(08:00):
that morning.

Speaker 3 (08:00):
I love Bally's drone and fireworks.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
I like Sully's Bar.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
At Bally's, they used to have the best buffet, the
Silver Buffet. I think sterling silver buffet, something like that.
It's delicious.

Speaker 6 (08:11):
Hey, Gary and Shannon and Justin, this is Jennifer and
Orange County. That last segment was one of the best
things I've heard on the radio in a while. That's
real life. The president, whatever the elections that affects us
kind of but we're all real people with families we
love that we just want to.

Speaker 4 (08:31):
Take care of.

Speaker 6 (08:32):
And that was the best thing I've heard on the
radio in a long time.

Speaker 3 (08:36):
Thank you.

Speaker 7 (08:38):
I now know that if I ever have a death
in my family that I want to go to the
Gary and Shannon School of counseling to handle. You guys
are hilarious.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
Oh all right, very dere, very demure, very mindful.

Speaker 4 (09:02):
You see how you do my makeup for work? Yep,
very demure, very mindful.

Speaker 3 (09:06):
That is Jules Lebron.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
I feel like by the time we get around to
talking about something, it's done. But the truth is is
we're on top of things. We may not be on
top of all the TikTok trends, but I think people
are still learning about this one and that very woman
wants to trademark the phrase, but like everybody knows, look
at you. Harris Wall's campaign that had to buy that. No, actually,

(09:31):
the campaign didn't buy that website. Somebody else did for
fifteen grand. But some guy years ago, a couple of
years ago, took out every combination of potential names and smart.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
Yeah, I mean there were people back in the day
who had the forethought to buy things like sex dot com,
Ford dot com, shabby.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
Eggs, Bunner, butter bunner. Can you not put that ball
in your mouth? It's it's close to your mouth, and
that ball is We don't even know what that ball
has seen from Chicago, right.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
We walked in at a station, the radio station.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
We grabbed the ball off the ground, played with it
for an entire thing, and you have it on your
face today.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
This seventeen second video that was put out by Jules
Lebron talks about how she doesn't do too much when
she applies her makeup and all of this demurreness and
mindfulness is about being cute, se and just being appropriate.
And they said they compared it to a pushback to
the whole brat from Charlie XCX brat as being messy

(10:31):
and blunt.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
Now it's fine. You heard it all over the place.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
People were making their own demure, mindful videos, et cetera.
On August twentye if somebody named Jeffrey Jefferson Bates file
an application to trademark the words very demure, very mindful
in a way.

Speaker 4 (10:47):
Very demure, yes, very mindful.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
Yes, but this guy lives in Washington State says he
wants to use the phrase for specific advertising, marketing and
promotional services. Three days later, do or Drink, which is
a drinking game company. Yeah, we need a whole company
for that, filed an application to trademark the word demure
in relation to card games and hard Seltzer. You know
what I love.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
About the very demure, very mindful moment that we are
in is it is in stark contrast to the hawk
Tua nightmare that we lived through most recently. It is
nice to hear demure and mindful because after cash me
outside and hawk to a girl, I was in the
mood to just dial it back a little bit.

Speaker 2 (11:30):
And what's funny is you mentioned that this very demure,
very mindful trend is over now. I mean that it
was a few weeks ago, and they come in really
fast and they leave really fast. But that Haktua thing
was probably the last one I remember reaching this level.
And she's doing fine for herself. Oh yeah, Haley, whatever
her name is. She's doing just fine for herself and

(11:52):
has been able to live quite an eventful summer. Now,
I don't know if this translates to anything for Jules Lebron,
because she said I wanted to do this for my family,
provide for my transition. I feel just like I dropped
the ball. She was crying, Oh, I'm sorry. Have you
not seen the video transition?

Speaker 3 (12:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (12:14):
I have seen the video. Yeah, I did not know
there was a transition taking place that I didn't know
that you didn't know. I thought that that was a
pretty obvious.

Speaker 4 (12:22):
Very demure, very mindful.

Speaker 1 (12:25):
But there's no evidence that there's a transition happening. Just
because someone looks a certain way doesn't mean you can deduce.

Speaker 3 (12:33):
That, well, maybe my transition.

Speaker 1 (12:36):
I've seen you in a dress and heels and red lipstick.
I didn't think that you were going to go through
a transition, and I was correct.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
You're right, you are, you are, You're right. I take
it back.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
Is there a time where I have an opportunity to
bring that up that I don't the dress?

Speaker 3 (12:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (12:54):
No, no, Maybe I should dial that back. Maybe I
should be more demure, and all those public embarrass that
you've gone through.

Speaker 3 (13:01):
I tend to keep them suppressed.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
Public embarrassments. Yeah, like what spilling your martini on the
that was Oscar? I don't drink martinis. There's only two
people who know that it wasn't Oscar. But everyone who
knows me knows I don't drink martini.

Speaker 3 (13:16):
That's a good point, that's true. I should have said hardinay,
we'll fix it in post.

Speaker 5 (13:23):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
Tomorrow is going to be the day that we will
see Vice President Harris sitting down with Dana Bash from
CNN and Governor Tim Wallas. The three of them are
going to sit down in Savannah, Georgia for a taped
interview that will eventually air tomorrow night at about six
o'clock our time. The Trump campaign has kept a tally

(13:50):
of the days that Harris has gone by as a
candidate with actually out giving a sit down interview, and
yesterday the campaign reacted to the interview news by noting
that the interview was a joint interview and said, quote,
She's not competent enough to do it on her own
Israeli forces launched a pretty large operation and the occupied
West Bank overnight into today. They killed at least ten

(14:11):
Hamas militants and sealed off the very volatile city of Jenine.
Did you see that text message? We just got enjoy it.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
Death toll is now eight in Lasteria. Outbreak tied to
the Boar's Head Deli meets. That's terrifying.

Speaker 2 (14:28):
I love bor's Head meets. In Chicago, there was a
boar's head deli. It was I think that's a common thing,
but it's very common. But yeah, you what happens is
when the distributors come to the deli, they'll give you
all that you know, hats and logos and things, so
you can display proudly that you are a boar's head deli.

Speaker 3 (14:47):
That's nice, it is. Did you have any boy's head sweat?

Speaker 7 (14:50):
Now?

Speaker 2 (14:50):
I want some more to deella.

Speaker 4 (14:52):
That's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 6 (14:54):
Gary and Shannon got.

Speaker 2 (14:56):
You cover like a state blanket, a little witchy keep
you warmed. I say this is to say that Gary
and Shannon are the best in the.

Speaker 4 (15:07):
West, so.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
Love him.

Speaker 3 (15:11):
It's time for what you're watching Wednesday. The following program
is brought to you in Living.

Speaker 7 (15:15):
Colors, but you watch it in the Americas love television.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
They wean their kids.

Speaker 4 (15:20):
On USA Television, watching too many of those live television shows.

Speaker 3 (15:28):
To catch the Mennions for.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
I didn't, but I watched the episode on Monday yesterday,
and there's this weird thing happening where the men usually
whoever are the last three standing, are in competition. They
want the girl, they at least want to have sex
with her, so they want to be chosen. And this
time around, I think it's indicative of where we're at

(15:53):
with this generation of young people, where two of the
guys have come forward and said.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
I'm just not ready. I'm just not ready.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
You know, it's like going to the supermarket versus Trader Joe's.
You go to Trader Joe's and there's one option for
most products.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
It's easy to shop there.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
You know, there's only one, you know, type of bullyon cube.
You go to Ralphs, there's like six types of bullyon cubes.
And right now, in this world, there are so many
options for sex, right there's so many options for relationships.
And I think that these guys are indicative of what's
happening to single women everywhere where.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
They're just like, nah, yeah, you're hot, I want to
have sex with you. Oh, lock this down. I don't
want to lock this down. I'm not ready to do that.

Speaker 1 (16:39):
And that's what we found, at least with two of
these guys who have said, I don't know if I'm
ready to be in love and do.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
This whole thing. And it is one of sex. It
should be called hooking up.

Speaker 3 (16:49):
Hooking up not the bachelorette.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
People aren't getting married the way they used to get married.

Speaker 3 (16:56):
That is also very true.

Speaker 1 (16:57):
So, I mean, the idea of getting married is terrifying.
These people don't even want to drive cars, right, They
don't want to call on the phone.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
They wouldn't answer the phone if there was an actual human.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
On this not the phone, not the door.

Speaker 1 (17:11):
So the idea of being with someone for the rest
of your life, oh my god. And the parents, the
parents are great that the hometown visits. The parents are like, yeah,
this isn't a thing. You're all not ready. And then
there was one family that were.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
Like, oh, I would love to have her as my
daughter in law, and.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
I was like, low information voter, low information voter, you
don't know anything about this woman yet. She's pretty as
she's polite on one day, but she hasn't spent time
with your family.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
You don't know how she would fit in. You don't
know where they're going to live.

Speaker 1 (17:41):
Like all the logistical questions that go along with the
idea of getting married are too many. I mean, we're
still at the phase of you know, what kind of
mustard do you like?

Speaker 6 (17:53):
Not?

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Where are we going to make our home? How many
kids do you want to have? When do you want
to have it? They don't have those conversations.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
And there's there's no there's no space for those conversations
in in that environment which.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
Is always POWs me away. It blows me away.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
We're what on thirty seasons, this ridiculous franch Why can't
they talk about real things? And they and everybody goes
and they think, I can't believe.

Speaker 3 (18:15):
It felt this way?

Speaker 2 (18:16):
Well, did you not see the other thirty seasons where
they all said the same exact thing, right? I Mean,
that's what was refreshing about the Golden Bachelor was some
of those women when they got into it. In fact,
the woman who's going to be the Golden Bachelorette, she
was like, you know what, I gotta go. Yeah, I
can't take this. I don't want to be here. And
I mean she had family time, she had family things.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
But I mean, could you imagine agreeing to marry someone
and I know that's not officially marrying them. You have
an engagement that's going to be however long you want
it to be, that coincides with the TV special You've
already agreed to before you even met this person in
the contract. Yeah, but like, you haven't gone to a
restaurant with this person on your own. You have had

(18:57):
cameras on you. You have been the old submit highlight reel.
Everyone's the highlight reel. For the first three months of
a relationship. That's the best of the best, and then
the cracks start to show and.

Speaker 2 (19:06):
Then you're like, oh, what is it about that? And
what is it about that? What like that? He does that?
What if they had to have a night where they
just said, okay, what are we going to do? Well,
that's what they say the whole Like where do you
want to go? That's what they say, Oh yeah, where
do you want to go?

Speaker 3 (19:19):
What do you want to hear? I don't care.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
I feel like a towing well, I feel like Typhood.
Those two people can never be together. There has to
be one decision maker, one person that wants to get
to the airport on time. But they never have those
They say that they have those conversations in the fantasy suites,
but we don't get to see them. I feel like
if I saw these people living real life, I'd be
able to quickly judge who's going to work out.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
And who's not.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
That's a good point. So only a couple of weeks
left it.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
They just throw them in a hot tub and give
them champagne and then they're like.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
Ah, love, How tough could that be.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
There is a new show that's come out in the
last couple of weeks called Bad Monkey about Apple TV.
So it's based on a book by Carl Hys and
I think, oh, that's is the name. Andrew Yancey played
in this case by Vince Vaughn, former police detective, who
is doing he's lost his badge. He's doing restaurant inspections

(20:10):
in South Florida. It kind of goes back between Miami
and the Florida Keys. A severed arm is pulled by
pulled out of the water by a fisherman and it
starts this like he agrees to deliver this severed arm
to the coroner in Miami to see if they can
figure out whose it was, etc. Starts a series of questions.

(20:32):
Vince Vaughan is Vince Vaughn. He's very funny. He's got
some of those one liners that you enjoy only a
couple episodes a few episodes into it. There are a
couple of standout people in terms of actresses. Meredith Hagner
plays the wife of a drowning victim in this case,
and then the other one is Natalie Martinez, who plays

(20:55):
a medical examiner from Miami who helps Yancy's former detective
Yancy figured out again. Vince Vaughn is just Vince Vaughn,
known quantity. You know what you're gonna get. Some of
these other characters and actors have been really great in it.
And there is a monkey, I mean there's but there's
also a tie to me. You've started this, Yes, okay
that I've been again. It's not the greatest that I've seen,

(21:18):
but it's one of those where I could see how
they're going to you could start to see how it's
going to come together, and that is exciting.

Speaker 3 (21:26):
And like there could be some very positive stuff there.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
And this is the.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Author with very unique eccentric books that have not translated
before to the screens.

Speaker 3 (21:35):
Carl Carl Hyinsen.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Yeah, yeah, he was a blind spot for me when
I looked that up last week. And then the other
one I started, also on Apple TV, is called Sonny.
Also black comedy, dark comedy, in that in American woman
goes to Japan, gets married and has a kid. Her
husband and son die in a plane crash, and she
receives a gift from the company that he used to

(21:57):
work for, and it's a home robot slightly in the
near future, and she doesn't want it. She hates robots,
but everybody in Kyoto, where she is, they all have
these home robots that follow them around and help take
care of domestic stuff. It turns out that her husband
built this robot for her, even though she thought he
only made refrigerators. So there's some mystery about is does

(22:21):
the robot contain a message from the husband? Is he
inside the robot?

Speaker 3 (22:25):
Is he still live? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (22:28):
I mean all that stuff. So there's a couple episodes.
Rashida Jones is the lead character in this. Haven't seen
her in very much lately because she's been doing a
lot of writing and producing.

Speaker 3 (22:35):
But she's really good so far.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
All right, check out the website. We have a trio
of trailers up there. If you want to cry, I.

Speaker 3 (22:45):
Cry at the trailer.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
Yeah, if this show didn't already make you cry, you
want to cry more. Check out the Christopher Reeves movie
Superman doc trailer. It's up there and it is hard
to get through just a trailer alone.

Speaker 2 (23:02):
Well done, this says super slash Man the Christopher Reeve story.

Speaker 3 (23:07):
The trailer was released just a couple days ago.

Speaker 5 (23:10):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
I have another story about that to tell you. On
the way out. You were gone, Okay, we're in the
middle of what you're watching Wednesday, talking about what's coming
up on the world of television. I saw this article
about Michael Crichton's estate now calling out a new show
as being an unauthorized ER remake. Michael Crichton, of course,

(23:40):
the longtime fiction writer, was an executive producer of Er
back in the day. I have a special place in
my heart for Er. It was the last TV show
we watched before my son was born. It was an
awful story that night about how a baby died and
my wife was nine and plus months pregnant, and we
knew we were going in the next morning to be
induced for babies for baby. I guess later that night

(24:02):
we were going in after the show that night to
be induced.

Speaker 1 (24:06):
But knowing you and your wife's humor, that checks out
that the Lord placed that on your programming.

Speaker 3 (24:13):
It was weird anyway.

Speaker 2 (24:14):
The suit they have filed a lawsuit has Michael Crichton's
estate filed a lawsuit against Warner Brothers Television for an
upcoming series that's going to be on HBO or Max
called The Pit.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
Now this is the thing.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
The estate is suing John Wells, an executive producer who
was also an executive producer of R and Noah Wiley,
who is one of the stars of Er and is
also going to be an executive producer on this new show.
This complaint says that in twenty twenty, they started developing
a reboot of Er, but did not tell Sherry Crichton,

(24:50):
Michael Crichton's widow and the guardian of his estate, and
when they told her about the project about two years
into development, they were prepared to prove a reboot based
on the condition that Michael Crichton would not be created
credited as a creator. I'm sorry that he would be
credited as a creator. But Warner Brothers later walked back

(25:12):
on a bunch of these promises. So after they tried
to negotiate for a year, they said, screw it, We're
not going to do a reboot of VR. We're going
to do an all new hospital drama that will star
Noah Wiley. But it will be called The Pit, and
it will take place in a different state. It won't
be in Chicago, it'll be in Pittsburgh. So the Crichton

(25:33):
estate was like, you guys didn't change enough for it
to be not a reboot. Don't they have enough the
Crichton estate. Yeah, I understand why they want to protect
it though. Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
The first trailer is being released for Tyler Perry's six
Triple Eight. The film tells the story of the first
and only all black Women's Army Corps unit to serve
overseas during World War Two. I love these stories that
I don't know about wars that are you know, one
hundred years ago. Film stars Kerrie Washington, as Major Charity Adams,

(26:04):
who commands the Battalion of Women's Soldiers, Oprah, Isn't It?
Susan Sarandon, Ebity Obsidian, and Sam Waterson.

Speaker 2 (26:13):
That looks good.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
It hits Netflix December twentieth, and then the NBA is
getting the Netflix treatment. A docu series will air starting
five October ninth. It follows Lebron James, Jason Tatum, Jimmy Butler,
Anthony Edwards as they make their way through the twenty
twenty three to twenty four season. They said the series

(26:35):
will give fans an unfiltered view of life at the
pinnacle of professional basketball. Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, and Peyton
Manning are among executive producers.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
I don't know if this is going to work. I
mean we've seen we've seen hard knocks. It's the same
thing with receiver. Well, they followed five wide receivers and
this is just going to be what are they going
to fall through the entire season? Yeah, because this is
a weird The season for basketball is eighty two games
plus you know playoffs and finals. Yeah, they'll just pick

(27:08):
and choose moments.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
I just thing that because they're not going to do
a reality show.

Speaker 2 (27:14):
Along those same lines with baseball, necessarily because it's just
too long.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
Well, they can't cover every game, and they don't have to.
They can just pick and choose big games or rivalries,
and it's more about the personal stuff and seeing these
guys in their real lives. That's really fascinating. I mean,
you can watch the game on that text was awful.
That was awful, Darren. That was the worst visual I've
thought of in a long time. And I think of

(27:39):
really bad stuff, really bad.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
All right, we asked you what you are watching.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
We got Dark Wins on Netflix, a detective show set
in the seventies on a Navajo reservation, consumed with Devin Sawat.

Speaker 2 (27:57):
What is that?

Speaker 7 (27:58):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (27:58):
Okay, that's a new one, A.

Speaker 1 (27:59):
Bad Monkey, Homicide Life on the Street. I liked that show,
Homicide Life on the Street, but I felt like it
was a little too I don't know, Dick Wolf is
in love with himself a little bit too much there.

Speaker 2 (28:10):
Well, and that was one of the early versions of
Dick Wolf being in love with himself.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
I mean, it didn't spin off into the.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
Others, like, no, this is a I think this is
the new documentary about high profile crimes, Oh, specifically Los Angeles,
but they're all really old like, they're all like from
the sixties and the seventies. I think, like the Mickey
Thompson murders in there.

Speaker 3 (28:37):
It may be, but it is.

Speaker 2 (28:38):
Alan Jackson lathering himself. That is the name of the
of the series that started in ninety three. Oh, okay,
but you might be right.

Speaker 1 (28:47):
Maybe may be a reading Eric on Netflix. I think
that I've seen that. I don't remember what that's.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
With Benedict Cumberbatch and his kid disappears, I think. And
then is that the one who plays a lady at
some point Benedict cumber No, he was sure locked. You're
thinking of the guy from the Chicago Seven whose name
I can't think of that? Okay, Eddie Redmain, Yes, And
then they're similar, are they not a little bit?

Speaker 1 (29:14):
I wouldn't say that Eddie Redmain is tall a reasonable doubt.
On Hulu Spicy, someone wrote Deborah would love it.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
The only other story I wanted to mention was that
Jeremy Allen White, of course from The Bear, is going
to be playing Bruce Springsteen in an upcoming biopic, so
he's been studying a lot of old I can see stuff,
and he said, this is taking him down a very
very deep rabbit hole on YouTube, trying to look up

(29:42):
old Bruce Springsteen footage and things. Who would you play
if adult theater called tomorrow and nobody's asking for the
Matt Damon Early Days biopic, They'd have to put a
they'd have to lower my hairline digitally. But other than that,
I could probably do that, okay, pre Jason Bourne because

(30:04):
then he started working out and now he's bigger than
I am. Okay, but you know you're older than he
six am No, okay, yeah, I don't know what I
was thinking. Watch your face, John Cobalt choke coming up next?

Speaker 3 (30:16):
Well, see tomorrow, Stay dry, everybody things you've been listening
to The Gary and Shannon Show.
