Good? Well, well it'll be a full hug.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
One two three.
Speaker 6 (01:42):
I listened to you for years in California. I moved
back home to Hawaii and I still listen to you,
so I know more what's going on in California than Hawaii. Anyway.
That reference Esther, I'm I'm into old Hollywood. And that's
actually a reference that rock husband used to call Doris Day.
She spoke about it at once as a nickname. He
used to call her Esther love you guys.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Fine, we're talking about the Esther that Joe Biden says
during the Swamp Watch open and it's actually from his
corn Pop story. Yeah, and he was referring to Asther Williams, right, So,
I mean that's a great I didn't know that the
doors Day used to go by that nick name. Mahallo.
What else is going on? Time for what's happening?
Speaker 7 (02:24):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Well, of course, the biggest story of the day is
happening at six pm our time, we will get the
interview on CNN with Dana Bash sitting down with Kamala
Harris and Tim Walls.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
There is still very very hot temperatures making their way
across the eastern half of the United States this week,
first hitting the Midwest and the Northeast, and now the
South again. Last week in Chicago, the temperature was so
mild it was a nothing. It was mid seventies maybe
and almost no humidity, So it was super easy to
understand why people like Chicago, and then everybody that lives
(03:00):
there was telling us how crazy cold it was for
being the middle of August. This week, they've had dangerously
high temperatures in places like Chicago. Record highs were shattered
in d c which reached one hundred and one yesterday. Greenwood, Mississippi,
reached one hundred and three. Of course, the US Open
Tennis tournament is underway in New York City, which is
(03:21):
operating under an extreme weather policy, which means that stadium
roofs are partially closed that they are going to extend
breaks for players. The South is really the bullseye today. Nashville, Raleigh,
North Carolina, Louisville, Kentucky, all expecting record high temperatures this afternoon.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
The suspect in the murder of four University of Idaho
students is due in court judge weighing whether to change
the venue for his trial. His lawyers want to move
this to a different county, arguing the local jury pool
in this small county, which you know includes the college
town where the murders happened, has been tainted by trial publicity.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
And I think that they.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Have an argument here.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Sure they do. A couple in Canoga Park managed to
scare off an intruder that broke into their apartment last night.
They were home, they heard a noise coming from their
bedroom at about ten o'clock last night. They walk over
and they find somebody in there. They were able to
scare them off, not hurt in the incident. Surveillance food
have show a guy a yellow shirt walking through the
gated apartment complex at Victory and Van Owen, hopped over
(04:28):
a gate and a wall at one point. They said
that they believe the man broke into the apartment through
a bedroom window, but not quite clear why. I don't
know if he was after something. Yep.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Another day, another break in in La County, that's for sure.
Three suspects in that shooting death of the former General
Hospital actor Johnny Whacter, pleaded not guilty today.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Two face murder charges.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
A fourth suspect who's facing lesser charges, indicated he would
plead guilty at a later date. These guys have been
due to go to their preliminary hearing in October.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
A stretch of Hollywood Boulevard is clean for the first
time in years. Why well, they're saying, it's before La
hosts cyclavillaugh.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
I hear or see this word, and all I can
think about is Eric Garcetti in those bicycle pants.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Oh the short It's awful.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
I should never have to see a mayor's genitals that much.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Three days before the city of La closed off Hollywood
Boulevard to thousands of families and cyclists, the tents were removed,
including one of the encampments at Hollywood and Wilton. The
LAPD says that Councilman Soto Martinez's office requested a clean
up of the Hollywood Boulevard and Wilton encampment and took
place two days before Syclavy. Listen, they got to do something.
(05:51):
Whether it's two days before a big event, four years
before the Olympics. Whatever it is, they have to do something,
and I don't think that should people who live in
that area should be surprised. Giseetpina Bardelli lived for four
nights lost in the Alps by making friends with a
(06:11):
fox named Miss Patricia and drinking rainwater.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
The fox was not named Miss Patricia. Do you want
to hear? I think there really was a fox? Do
you want yes?
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Jispina Bardelli was foraging for mushrooms back on the twenty
first when she became dizzy. She tumbled about twenty feet
down into a gully right around Monte Racine, and her
son Sergio, raised his alarm that mom was missing and
asked for helicopters and drones to help in the search.
It took four nights to find Jesseppine, who remained in
(06:45):
the gully. She was living off of puddle water. She
slept under trees. She used vegetation for cover. She also
became good friends with a wild fox that's cool, who
approached her out of curiosity.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
I love a fox, beautiful animals. You want to hear
Miss Patricia's line of the day, You cannot soar with
the eagles, when you're flying with the turkeys?
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Why are you looking at me? And why did she?
Why are you looking at me?
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Because I'm talking to you.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
You don't look at miss Patricia when you talk to her?
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Yes, I do.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Really? Where is she right now?
Speaker 8 (07:20):
Are looking? Are you looking? You just kind of looked
off into space there for a second. To pin you
down on your imaginary friends. Juspina used to recite the
Rosary to the wild Fox visit her every d interesting.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Yeah, mmm, what is the rosary again? It's our fathers
and hail Mary's right, and then and then there's an
added one.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
I have no idea something at the end there is
there's something new about gender identity or something. Tonight, the
Dodgers take on the Orioles First Pictures. It's seven o'clock.

Tonight happens to be Filipino Heritage Night Ticket Pack Night.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
What that means?
Speaker 2 (08:13):
I don't know what the giveaway is.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Gary show apostles Creed our Father, one elf one our
father on the first large bead, and then one Hail
Mary on each of the next small three beads. Oh yeah,
and then glory b I don't know that one. And
then there's it starts with as a whole to do here,
and then you repeat, I think over and.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Over till you get all the way through the necklace
or the chain of beads, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Apostles Creed our Father, Hail Mary, glory b Fatima, prayer,
Hail Holy Queen.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
There's a couple extra ones in there that I didn't
even know about.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Well, that's what Catholics do. They put extra books in there.
Speaker 9 (08:53):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on Demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Story we're following for you today. Hear about Chris Christie's
new gig.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
No.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Former New Jersey governor, unsuccessful Republican presidential candidate Chris Christy
will teach a course on running for office at Yale
this semester. It's titled how to Run a Political Campaign.
And I wonder how much of the syllabus is about
not shutting down the lanes on the bridge.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
He's both won races and lost races, so more experience
than a lot of people.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
What a failure that was.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Yeah, Former President Trump is going to be campaigning in Michigan,
Wisconsin today, his campaign efforts in a handful of battleground
states to ramp up leading into Labor Day. Of course,
a visit today to Michigan will be his third in
just the last seven days. The Wisconsin stop tonight will
be his first since he went to the Republican Convention
back in Milwaukee. And then, of course tonight, Vice President
(09:54):
Harris and her running mate, Governor Tim Wall sitting down
for their first major television interview on CNN six o'cl time.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
You know what I love to find is a restaurant
where you can take a group of people and there
is something for everybody, so that it's not just what
you're in the mood for, but what everybody's in the
mood for. And that is what it appears. Plum's Cafe
is our small business shout out today from Coast to Mesa,
seventeenth Street in Coasta, Mesa. Plums Cafe it is and
(10:24):
the owners, Tim and Cheryl Campbell have joined us.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Guys, Thanks for making the drive thank you.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
So I'm looking at this menu right now, I mean
it really you've had a cinnamon roll before? Have you
ever had a two pound giant cinnamon role? That's larger
than a dinner plate?
Speaker 2 (10:39):
That cinnamon role? Right, If I'm not mistaken, I don't
know how much of it I'm going to be able
to get.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Yeah, but if you took your family there, you guys
could get into that and make a dent.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
We could, We could make a mess of it. Yeah,
we could probably get after it. Tim, Cheryl, both of
you again, thanks for coming in. What is this a
lifelong dream Plums Cafe? What's well? Some of the history
I was right up on that microphone. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (11:01):
I was in commercial Estaye for about thirty years, and
twenty fifteen we sold out the Blackstone in the Equity
group and we both moved with our kids to Hawaii.
My family had not only a seafood distribution company that
I ran for them, but we had one restaurant called
Uncle's Fish Market and Grill.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
And that's where we kind of got the bug.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Whereabouts in Hawaii.
Speaker 7 (11:20):
In Owahu where so it was in the fishing village
which is right close to downtown, and we had one
restaurant there. We ended up opening another one out by
pro Ridge again that was a seafood kind of lunch dinner,
and we decided to sell the seafood company called Fresh
Island Fish in twenty eighteen pre pandemic thinkingness, and at
(11:43):
that point my wife and I decided we wanted to
move back be close to the family friends in Orange County.
So we moved back and we were looking for a
restaurant to buy. Turns out we bought another restaurant called
Capi's Cafe Newport. Newport Breakfast Lunch been there forty two years,
very iconic, right across street from the beach, and we
enjoyed it so much. We had such a great team,
(12:05):
and over a period at that time four years, Cheryl
and I decided that we really wanted to buy another
breakfast Lunch and Plum's Cafe came up. This restaurant's been
around thirty two years again breakfast Lunch. Both have full
bars and we just love the business and we're looking
for more as well.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
My sister in law lives in kaava on O Wahuo
and so I've only eaten at the Shrimp Truck. But
so you two have so many ventures together. You must
work really well together as a husband wife team.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
How does that work.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Well, Cheryl handle, I'm laughing, laughing.
Speaker 10 (12:43):
It's always an adventure. We've been married for like thirty
four years plus two, and it's an adventure. The restaurant
business is challenging, exciting when you could bring excitement to
everyone when they come. We're making memories for families at
(13:05):
either restaurant, and I enjoy watching people enjoy their food.
I like celebrations, and yeah, it's really fun.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
I think.
Speaker 10 (13:20):
I think that going out to eat is special. I
can cook at home, but when you go out, it's nice.
You don't have to do the dishes, you don't have
to you don't have to serve anybody, you know.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
But our teams are great.
Speaker 10 (13:37):
We have a fabulous team at both restaurants, so you
get to eat sweets or sandwiches. It's an experience.
Speaker 7 (13:47):
We obviously divide up up the task, so Cheryl's great
marketing and she goes out and talks to the concierge.
Concierges in town does all the marketing. I'm more of
a numbers guy, so you know, food costs very very
important in a restaurant, right, if you don't know your
food costs, and a lot of restaurants they see over
ninety facts in the restaurants have no idea their food
cost so they have a plate and they're like, Okay, well,
(14:08):
I don't know what it is, and what are we
going to price it here? We're going to price it
this number. Well that those are the ones that go
out of business, and that's why restaurants fail. But if
you know your food costs, then you know how to
price it. And obviously, as we all know, during inflation
over the last couple of years, food costs have escalated tremendously.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
So what are some of the popular items that people
come back for.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Well, certainly the cinnamon role right.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
I'm going to get into that right now.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Yeah, these cinnamon rolls.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
I think we're the only restaurant in Orange County that
I'm aware of that does a two pounder. Certainly there's
restaurants that do them a pound or less. We decided
to go big again because we had a lot of
parties that come in and really enjoy it. But I
would say that as well as our Dutch baby, we
have a German Dutch baby that we bake in the convection.
It's a Dutch baby, big old pancake and Germany German pain.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
How many calories are in this? It's no calories.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Right, you're good at numbers, but you're not good calories.
We don't talk calories.
Speaker 10 (14:57):
No calories.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
On the menu, it says Pacific North US comfort Food.
Why the Pacific Northwest.
Speaker 7 (15:02):
Well, the lady that we bought it from she was
from Oregon, and when she started the restaurant thirty two
years ago, she really wanted to have Oregon type food. So,
like in front of you, this green salad, it's a
Granny Smith green salad, pinutgriggios dressing, very big seller from
a salad. And we, as you said earlier, you know,
we really want to have something for everybody. So whether
(15:23):
it's if you want to go healthy, we can do
a veggie sandwich, right. If you want to have all sugar,
we can do the Simon roll. If you want seafood,
you know, we have salmon.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Like a plate of all sugar.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
We have all options. That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
I love the Kristini plate. That's fun.
Speaker 7 (15:39):
We just started that on Monday. What we do to
kind of figure out what we want to add to
our menus. We have what we call a secret menu,
so we have a QR coat on the table that
people can scan, and then it's items that were testing.
That was one that we tested Christini and it did
so well this past Monday, we added it to our permanent.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Menu plates right remain in vogue and so that's kind
of like a way to just kind of picket stuff,
especially if you were with friends. Get a glass of wine,
I'll have a little of that. I'll have a little
of that.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Yeah. Would you say that we've recovered from COVID in
terms of the restaurant business or are we still having
some hangover from that? That's a good question. I think yes.
The answer to that is yes.
Speaker 7 (16:21):
I think the bigger issue from what I'm seeing not
only in Orange County, but statewide and nationwide, I think
people are going out to eat less. I think they're
holding back on their budget and what they're doing is
what we're seeing across the board, and I have friends
in other states that are seeing this as well, is
that we're seeing just people that they want to hold
(16:41):
back because they're not sure where the economy is going up.
So they have a big election coming up, and they're nervous.
They don't know, so I think the spend as far
as the number of people. And I talked to our
Cisco rep who's a food rep that obviously they selled
to lots of restaurants throughout southern California. They're seeing that
as well. The restaurants are not selling as much. Not
necessarily that they're not profitable, but they're just they're just
seeing customers pulling back and not going out as much
(17:03):
as they used to.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
All right, Tim Cheryl Campbell from Plum's Cafe find him
on the seventeenth Street and coast to Mesa. You can
find him on Instagram and Facebook as well. Plum's Cafe,
and when you're in Newport, checkout Cappi's Cafe right there
on the West Coast Highway or across from the beach.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Thanks for teaching me about Dutch Baby. That's fun to say.
Speaker 10 (17:20):
Thank you guys for of course you come down to
see us.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
You're gonna I'm gonna get through the cinemon roll before
I come down to business.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
Calm down's know what's gonna take it away from you.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
You don't know that I've seeing these people around here.
Speaker 9 (17:34):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
A M six forty stop the show.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Oh okay, we've done a good thing.
Speaker 8 (17:46):
I'm crying you guys that baby jo.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
So what's the other?
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (17:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (17:53):
I just so awful and so last I guess Shannon
and says, oh my god, I say.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
I appreciate that. You're welcome.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Oh I thought that was going to be over the
Chris Stapleton video.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Well there is also you should watch that.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
No.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
I was going to cry today. Yeah, thank you for
recommending the Chris Stapleton music video. It's on Twitter. I
didn't know that was gore where that was going. Yes,
but it was actually quite cool. It was great.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
It was wonderful.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
It was the most wonderful thing I've seen in a
long time.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
And it's funny because it starts out in a way
and I'm trying to starts out and you think, how
is he gonna who? I think I'm in love with you,
but it doesn't seem like that's what the theme of
the song is. Again at Gary and Shannon on Twitter
is where you can act sorries. Where you're going to
find our link to that video.
Speaker 5 (18:52):
So, hey, Gary and Channon, you might want to mention
that the interview that Kamala has today is pre recorded
and no doubt edited by CNN before they present it.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Thanks, okay, we do, Yes, it is being pre recorded.
We don't know if it's being edited.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
We don't know, but uh, it'll probably have to be
edited somewhat if they're gonna include other elements in that
in that show, if they're gonna show them in Georgia
or whatever, talking to voters the bus. Take me around
the bus, show me the I can see Dana bash saying,
giving him me a tour of the bus.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
How lame, I can see it. That's all lame.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
What's your favorite ice cream?
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Exactly? How do you eat ribs?
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Uh? It's time for a strange science.
Speaker 9 (19:42):
Strange, it's like weird science, but strange.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Did you eat that whole cinnamon roll over there?
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I ate the four pieces of cinnamon roll that they
gave us. It was not a two pound cinnamon role
that I ate. Are you concerned about my blood sugar
right now? No, I've only got twenty minutes with you. Fine,
Oh we have a meeting after that.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Oh my goodness.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
So I saw this story and it's pretty cool, the
idea that we have developed medicines for humans that can
actually have an impact on other things in this world.
Several meters underwater off the coast of bon Air, which
is a small island in the South Caribbean, a bio
(20:32):
micro and marine biologist floated in front of a large
head of boulder brain coral. It looks kind of like
the folds that you'd find in a brain pattern across
the surface, looks like what you might find in a maze,
maybe on the back of a cereal box. And from
a syringe, this ecologist squeezes a toothpaste like substance into
(20:55):
her hand and then pushes it onto the surface of
the coral around the edge of a splotch that had
recently appeared and the coral. That's proof that the coral
was sick and they're hoping that this paste might actually
help heal it. It's called stony coral tissue loss disease
and has been ravaging some of the reefs across the Caribbean.
(21:17):
The thing is they're saying that they can treat it
with medicines that are used for the for humans. They're
trying desperately to stop this spread, so they're smearing these
corals with antibiotics it would otherwise be used on human beings,
(21:37):
and at this point they're successful. I don't know if
they know what the long term effect would be on
this coral, but at least it's working in the meantime.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Do you remember when we told you the story of
the gay penguins, Most recently the gay penguin Spin died
at eleven. Spin raised two chicks with his male penguin partner.
It was a sad tale, but one of love.
Speaker 9 (22:01):
Well.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
In Chile, there are two male flamingos named Arthur and Curtis,
and they have successfully hatched an egg together, a first
for the Painton Zoo there in Chile. The zoo has
had several all male pairings during the past breeding seasons,
so the same sex couple not an unexpected turn of events,
(22:25):
But the zoo is not really clear about how the
couple acquired the egg.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Where did that egg come from?
Speaker 1 (22:32):
They stole the egg from where did Arthur and Curtis
find that egg? During breeding season, the couples usually spend
more time together follow each other around the enclosure, but
a pairing is confirmed when two birds pick a nest
to share, where they will take turns sitting on the
mud mound with or without an egg. This year, however,
(22:54):
Curtis and Arthur had an egg to sit on. It's
only happened a handful of times.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
At other zoos.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
I say the successful hatching between two males highlights the
birds innate parental instincts and flexibility.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
They say that the chick is about a month old,
appears to be thriving.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
What's its name?
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Observed? They haven't named it yet. Oh, they have observed
exploring the exhibit with another chick that's about the same age.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Did you see the picture of the baby flamingo?
Speaker 2 (23:23):
It looks like a chicken.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Isn't that sweet?
Speaker 2 (23:25):
It looks like a chicken with beefy legs.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
Yeah, I love it. I love a baby.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Flamingos do often have non breeding partnerships that consist of
same sex associations. The birds tend to be very particular
in who they like to spend their time with. They'll
actively seek out birds in a flock and avoid others.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Are these the ones that eat salmon and that's how
they get the coloring.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Flamingos don't eat salmon.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Oh, well, there's something that eats salmon, and the coloring
they do eat.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
They do eat what do they call it, plankton? They
don't need plankton. They eat something that does, yes, that
turns their feathers pink. But it's not salmon. It's a
different kind of Are.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
You worried that you're going to turn pink because you
had salmon last night and that's why you were pushing back.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
That's why I'm so adamant about it.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Okay, Flamingos get their pink color from the carotenoids found
in their food, their red, yellow and orange pigments found
in many plants, including algae, brian, shrimp, and mollusks. Okay,
I mean I was shrimp salmon.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Come on, right, it's pretty much the same. They're angia both,
right and both. We'll continue with strange science.
Speaker 9 (24:40):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
And a lot of people are convinced, by the way,
and we're getting talk backs. I don't need to plan,
but convinced that the the CNN interview was edited. I'm
not saying it's not. I'm just saying we don't. I
won't know what it is.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
It's more in my opinion, it's more likely than not
that it will be edited and they will come out
right away and say this was edited for time, but
we didn't edit out any sort of moment or I
don't know how they're going to do it, but their
credibility is on the line. CNN has just as much
riding on this as Kamala Harris does.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
Which is weird. It would be weird to me that
they wouldn't also make it. I can understand they edit
it for time. They want to add in the let's
take a tour of the bus and what's your favorite
ice cream? That stuff, but they don't have to. I mean,
it's going to be a ratings bonanza for them, whether
it's twenty minutes or forty seven minutes.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
Yeah, but it's not just a bit. You can't be
shortsighted about it. Yes, it's a ratings bonanza today. But
if they edit this down, if it's obvious, if it's
ten minutes, then in the future nobody's going.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
To go to them.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
That's what I mean is that it would behoove them
to do the whole thing unedited. Yes, so that they
look at least fair, Yes, at the very least fair.
Speaker 7 (25:59):
Excuse me, Gary, the island of bon Air, Yes, I
mean Boner Island.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Sorry, no, it's spelled differently bon Air bo in a bo.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
But what is a Boner Island?
Speaker 2 (26:11):
I don't know. I don't know, but I'm sure that a.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
New show on Fox this fall.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Who put this story in our pile of science? Which
one the one where the headline reads what your seamen
says about your health?
Speaker 6 (26:26):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (26:26):
I threw that one away.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
I will follow suit you.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Oh no, I didn't throw it away.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Well, go ahead and toss it. We're not doing that
story that's inappropriate. Call your doctor if you're worried about
something that. Don't come to the Gary and Shannon Show
for help with that.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
When to see a doctor persistent changes, professional regular checkups.
You can open communication with your doctor crucial for maintaining
your health. All right, let's talk about it. Can provide
valuable insight?
Speaker 3 (26:56):
No no, no, no, no no no.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Hey, why does every spider story have to have pictures
of spiders? Can't you just tell me what the spiders
are doing without horrifying me with images of said spider?
Speaker 3 (27:08):
Usually very close up.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Do you mean this this? This one?
Speaker 1 (27:14):
No? No?
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Which was one? Oh? That one? Yes, there's a couple
of good deadly, deadly spider and creature stories.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
The spider in China, the Eraneus ventricusus, has found a
way to hack the fireflies bioluminescent signals to lure more
fireflies to its web.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
Big of it. This way, spider spider spins a web
firefly firefly flies into the web. Then the spider goes
up to that trapped firefly and tickles something that makes
the firefly light up and flash, which brings more fireflies
(27:58):
to the web and they all die.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
Out comes the sun and dries up all the rain,
and the itsy bitsy spider climbs up.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
The spouting up the spout again again again speaking of
deadly animals, A bristle worm, who boy, has been found,
Oh my god along the coast of Texas.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
Listen to this.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
According to the Heart Research Institute for Gulf of Mexico
Studies at Texas A and M. Corpus Christi, a scientist
found a bristle worm. He said he hasn't seen one
there in about three to four years.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
The worms were first described two hundred and fifty years
ago by Prussian naturalist Peter Simon Palace. It was page
one oh six of his Latin book from seventeen sixty six.
He says that these worms, these venomous worms, can grow
to be about eight inches inches long. Each worm is
(28:57):
composed of sixty to one hundred and fifty different segments
covered by hollow bristles that easily get stuck in human
skin and deposit painful venom. It feels like you're on
fire if the bristleworm gets to you, if you get
unlucky enough to feel the dizziness the searing pain from
(29:20):
the venom. They say to quickly cover the problem area
with duct tape, then rip the tape off to remove
the bristles, and then just like with a jellyfish, wash
the area with white vinegar and warm water or urine.
But it's going to be painful no matter what.
Speaker 6 (29:39):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
There's a video on YouTube nope from a channel named
Brave Wilderness. Two guys get attacked and stung by these
venerous and venomous and dangerous animals from all over the
world under the supervision of trained professionals. It says one
guy has a videotitle titled burned by a giant fireworm
(30:00):
And after nine minutes of talking blah blah blah, he
brushes a fireworm over his arm and then quickly starts
having a bad time. The veins in his neck stick
out like the bristles in his arm, and he describes
the pain through gritted teeth, and after talking for a
little bit, he uses tape and says he feels immediate relief.
Apparently puts the tape on the bristles and is able
(30:23):
to peel them back.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
Who just has random duct tape with them?
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Well, at the beach, they're with trained professionals.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
Not everywhere where these things are washing up.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
If you're looking for the next thing. I know Michael
Crichton has passed, but we spoke about him yesterday. This
is a great premise for a Michael Crichton like book.
Scientists have unearthed the remnants of more than seventeen hundred
viruses from deep inside a glacier in western China, and
most of them, up to this point completely unknown to science.
(30:58):
Science has gathered one one thousand foot ice core are
taken from the Gulila Glacier on the Tibetan plateau. They
said it dates back somewhere forty forty plus thousand years
and spans three major shifts from cold to warm. The
viruses differed markedly between the colder and the warmer. Eras
noting that a distinct community of viruses formed during the
(31:21):
most dramatic of these climatic shifts at the end of
the last ice Age, and they said, at least indicates
the potential connection between viruses and climate change, whether they
are causing it or changing as a result of it.
It's a very scary place to be, well, I mean,
on the Earth.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
On the Earth.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Yes, that's why I want to be a trapped astronaut.
I'll stay up there till next year in my soiled underwear.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
The problem is you're going to miss an entire football season.
Oh right, I'm sure they have the ability to keep
up on it, but it's probably not the same.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
In one week football begins Thursday Night Football.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
We're gonna have to do some new stuff this year
for a gas Fantasy four play.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
What do you have in mind?
Speaker 2 (32:06):
I don't know. I'll come up with some ideas.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
I feel like we need to have more skin in
the game, like the loser of the weekend or the
you know, I don't know, it has to do something embarrassing,
run around here and you know, with pom poms and
say I'm a loser.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
How about not just the loser, but and it wouldn't
count if it was a loser. But if somebody goes perfect,
if someone goes four and oh yeah, then everybody else
has to do something.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Or if somebody goes oh to four, ooh, that's then
they have to pay for it, okay.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
With their with their skin in the game.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
I like it.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
Integrity, all right.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
The John co Belt Show starring Phil Schuman is coming
up next see tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
Stay drive, everybody, blessings.
Speaker 2 (32:51):

Speaker 1 (00:40):
And the worst things I said were, f you? How
dare you make me feel things? Stupid stupid feelings.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Some people have left some talk bags.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Hey, Gary and Shannon. I was just wondering if you
guys could do me a favor and give me a
big Gary and Shannon Show hug with mom though and
everybody included. I'm having a really often. I really could
use one. All right, Thanks guys, appreciate.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
What you do.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Okay, are you ready for it? Bye? Are you ready
for it? Okay?
Speaker 5 (01:12):
Are you?
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Are you standing up? Guys? Are you ready to go

Speaker 2 (01:17):
I'm ready?
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Okay, you move around right there. We'll get her, get
We'll get her. Yeah, you're on that side.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
What are you gonna say? We get her?
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Good? Well, well it'll be a full hug.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
One two three.
Speaker 6 (01:42):
I listened to you for years in California. I moved
back home to Hawaii and I still listen to you,
so I know more what's going on in California than Hawaii. Anyway.
That reference Esther, I'm I'm into old Hollywood. And that's
actually a reference that rock husband used to call Doris Day.
She spoke about it at once as a nickname. He
used to call her Esther love you guys.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Fine, we're talking about the Esther that Joe Biden says
during the Swamp Watch open and it's actually from his
corn Pop story. Yeah, and he was referring to Asther Williams, right, So,
I mean that's a great I didn't know that the
doors Day used to go by that nick name. Mahallo.
What else is going on? Time for what's happening?
Speaker 7 (02:24):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Well, of course, the biggest story of the day is
happening at six pm our time, we will get the
interview on CNN with Dana Bash sitting down with Kamala
Harris and Tim Walls.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
There is still very very hot temperatures making their way
across the eastern half of the United States this week,
first hitting the Midwest and the Northeast, and now the
South again. Last week in Chicago, the temperature was so
mild it was a nothing. It was mid seventies maybe
and almost no humidity, So it was super easy to
understand why people like Chicago, and then everybody that lives
(03:00):
there was telling us how crazy cold it was for
being the middle of August. This week, they've had dangerously
high temperatures in places like Chicago. Record highs were shattered
in d c which reached one hundred and one yesterday. Greenwood, Mississippi,
reached one hundred and three. Of course, the US Open
Tennis tournament is underway in New York City, which is
(03:21):
operating under an extreme weather policy, which means that stadium
roofs are partially closed that they are going to extend
breaks for players. The South is really the bullseye today. Nashville, Raleigh,
North Carolina, Louisville, Kentucky, all expecting record high temperatures this afternoon.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
The suspect in the murder of four University of Idaho
students is due in court judge weighing whether to change
the venue for his trial. His lawyers want to move
this to a different county, arguing the local jury pool
in this small county, which you know includes the college
town where the murders happened, has been tainted by trial publicity.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
And I think that they.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Have an argument here.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Sure they do. A couple in Canoga Park managed to
scare off an intruder that broke into their apartment last night.
They were home, they heard a noise coming from their
bedroom at about ten o'clock last night. They walk over
and they find somebody in there. They were able to
scare them off, not hurt in the incident. Surveillance food
have show a guy a yellow shirt walking through the
gated apartment complex at Victory and Van Owen, hopped over
(04:28):
a gate and a wall at one point. They said
that they believe the man broke into the apartment through
a bedroom window, but not quite clear why. I don't
know if he was after something. Yep.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Another day, another break in in La County, that's for sure.
Three suspects in that shooting death of the former General
Hospital actor Johnny Whacter, pleaded not guilty today.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Two face murder charges.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
A fourth suspect who's facing lesser charges, indicated he would
plead guilty at a later date. These guys have been
due to go to their preliminary hearing in October.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
A stretch of Hollywood Boulevard is clean for the first
time in years. Why well, they're saying, it's before La
hosts cyclavillaugh.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
I hear or see this word, and all I can
think about is Eric Garcetti in those bicycle pants.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Oh the short It's awful.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
I should never have to see a mayor's genitals that much.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Three days before the city of La closed off Hollywood
Boulevard to thousands of families and cyclists, the tents were removed,
including one of the encampments at Hollywood and Wilton. The
LAPD says that Councilman Soto Martinez's office requested a clean
up of the Hollywood Boulevard and Wilton encampment and took
place two days before Syclavy. Listen, they got to do something.
(05:51):
Whether it's two days before a big event, four years
before the Olympics. Whatever it is, they have to do something,
and I don't think that should people who live in
that area should be surprised. Giseetpina Bardelli lived for four
nights lost in the Alps by making friends with a
(06:11):
fox named Miss Patricia and drinking rainwater.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
The fox was not named Miss Patricia. Do you want
to hear? I think there really was a fox? Do
you want yes?
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Jispina Bardelli was foraging for mushrooms back on the twenty
first when she became dizzy. She tumbled about twenty feet
down into a gully right around Monte Racine, and her
son Sergio, raised his alarm that mom was missing and
asked for helicopters and drones to help in the search.
It took four nights to find Jesseppine, who remained in
(06:45):
the gully. She was living off of puddle water. She
slept under trees. She used vegetation for cover. She also
became good friends with a wild fox that's cool, who
approached her out of curiosity.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
I love a fox, beautiful animals. You want to hear
Miss Patricia's line of the day, You cannot soar with
the eagles, when you're flying with the turkeys?
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Why are you looking at me? And why did she?
Why are you looking at me?
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Because I'm talking to you.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
You don't look at miss Patricia when you talk to her?
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Yes, I do.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Really? Where is she right now?
Speaker 8 (07:20):
Are looking? Are you looking? You just kind of looked
off into space there for a second. To pin you
down on your imaginary friends. Juspina used to recite the
Rosary to the wild Fox visit her every d interesting.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Yeah, mmm, what is the rosary again? It's our fathers
and hail Mary's right, and then and then there's an
added one.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
I have no idea something at the end there is
there's something new about gender identity or something. Tonight, the
Dodgers take on the Orioles First Pictures. It's seven o'clock.
Listen to every play of every Dodger's game on A
five seventy sports and stream all the games in HD
on that iHeartRadio app used the keyword AM five seventy
LA Sports powered by La Care for all of La.
Tonight happens to be Filipino Heritage Night Ticket Pack Night.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
What that means?
Speaker 2 (08:13):
I don't know what the giveaway is.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Gary show apostles Creed our Father, one elf one our
father on the first large bead, and then one Hail
Mary on each of the next small three beads. Oh yeah,
and then glory b I don't know that one. And
then there's it starts with as a whole to do here,
and then you repeat, I think over and.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Over till you get all the way through the necklace
or the chain of beads, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Apostles Creed our Father, Hail Mary, glory b Fatima, prayer,
Hail Holy Queen.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
There's a couple extra ones in there that I didn't
even know about.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Well, that's what Catholics do. They put extra books in there.
Speaker 9 (08:53):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on Demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Story we're following for you today. Hear about Chris Christie's
new gig.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
No.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Former New Jersey governor, unsuccessful Republican presidential candidate Chris Christy
will teach a course on running for office at Yale
this semester. It's titled how to Run a Political Campaign.
And I wonder how much of the syllabus is about
not shutting down the lanes on the bridge.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
He's both won races and lost races, so more experience
than a lot of people.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
What a failure that was.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Yeah, Former President Trump is going to be campaigning in Michigan,
Wisconsin today, his campaign efforts in a handful of battleground
states to ramp up leading into Labor Day. Of course,
a visit today to Michigan will be his third in
just the last seven days. The Wisconsin stop tonight will
be his first since he went to the Republican Convention
back in Milwaukee. And then, of course tonight, Vice President
(09:54):
Harris and her running mate, Governor Tim Wall sitting down
for their first major television interview on CNN six o'cl time.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
You know what I love to find is a restaurant
where you can take a group of people and there
is something for everybody, so that it's not just what
you're in the mood for, but what everybody's in the
mood for. And that is what it appears. Plum's Cafe
is our small business shout out today from Coast to Mesa,
seventeenth Street in Coasta, Mesa. Plums Cafe it is and
(10:24):
the owners, Tim and Cheryl Campbell have joined us.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Guys, Thanks for making the drive thank you.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
So I'm looking at this menu right now, I mean
it really you've had a cinnamon roll before? Have you
ever had a two pound giant cinnamon role? That's larger
than a dinner plate?
Speaker 2 (10:39):
That cinnamon role? Right, If I'm not mistaken, I don't
know how much of it I'm going to be able
to get.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Yeah, but if you took your family there, you guys
could get into that and make a dent.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
We could, We could make a mess of it. Yeah,
we could probably get after it. Tim, Cheryl, both of
you again, thanks for coming in. What is this a
lifelong dream Plums Cafe? What's well? Some of the history
I was right up on that microphone. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (11:01):
I was in commercial Estaye for about thirty years, and
twenty fifteen we sold out the Blackstone in the Equity
group and we both moved with our kids to Hawaii.
My family had not only a seafood distribution company that
I ran for them, but we had one restaurant called
Uncle's Fish Market and Grill.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
And that's where we kind of got the bug.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Whereabouts in Hawaii.
Speaker 7 (11:20):
In Owahu where so it was in the fishing village
which is right close to downtown, and we had one
restaurant there. We ended up opening another one out by
pro Ridge again that was a seafood kind of lunch dinner,
and we decided to sell the seafood company called Fresh
Island Fish in twenty eighteen pre pandemic thinkingness, and at
(11:43):
that point my wife and I decided we wanted to
move back be close to the family friends in Orange County.
So we moved back and we were looking for a
restaurant to buy. Turns out we bought another restaurant called
Capi's Cafe Newport. Newport Breakfast Lunch been there forty two years,
very iconic, right across street from the beach, and we
enjoyed it so much. We had such a great team,
(12:05):
and over a period at that time four years, Cheryl
and I decided that we really wanted to buy another
breakfast Lunch and Plum's Cafe came up. This restaurant's been
around thirty two years again breakfast Lunch. Both have full
bars and we just love the business and we're looking
for more as well.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
My sister in law lives in kaava on O Wahuo
and so I've only eaten at the Shrimp Truck. But
so you two have so many ventures together. You must
work really well together as a husband wife team.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
How does that work.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Well, Cheryl handle, I'm laughing, laughing.
Speaker 10 (12:43):
It's always an adventure. We've been married for like thirty
four years plus two, and it's an adventure. The restaurant
business is challenging, exciting when you could bring excitement to
everyone when they come. We're making memories for families at
(13:05):
either restaurant, and I enjoy watching people enjoy their food.
I like celebrations, and yeah, it's really fun.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
I think.
Speaker 10 (13:20):
I think that going out to eat is special. I
can cook at home, but when you go out, it's nice.
You don't have to do the dishes, you don't have
to you don't have to serve anybody, you know.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
But our teams are great.
Speaker 10 (13:37):
We have a fabulous team at both restaurants, so you
get to eat sweets or sandwiches. It's an experience.
Speaker 7 (13:47):
We obviously divide up up the task, so Cheryl's great
marketing and she goes out and talks to the concierge.
Concierges in town does all the marketing. I'm more of
a numbers guy, so you know, food costs very very
important in a restaurant, right, if you don't know your
food costs, and a lot of restaurants they see over
ninety facts in the restaurants have no idea their food
cost so they have a plate and they're like, Okay, well,
(14:08):
I don't know what it is, and what are we
going to price it here? We're going to price it
this number. Well that those are the ones that go
out of business, and that's why restaurants fail. But if
you know your food costs, then you know how to
price it. And obviously, as we all know, during inflation
over the last couple of years, food costs have escalated tremendously.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
So what are some of the popular items that people
come back for.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Well, certainly the cinnamon role right.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
I'm going to get into that right now.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Yeah, these cinnamon rolls.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
I think we're the only restaurant in Orange County that
I'm aware of that does a two pounder. Certainly there's
restaurants that do them a pound or less. We decided
to go big again because we had a lot of
parties that come in and really enjoy it. But I
would say that as well as our Dutch baby, we
have a German Dutch baby that we bake in the convection.
It's a Dutch baby, big old pancake and Germany German pain.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
How many calories are in this? It's no calories.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Right, you're good at numbers, but you're not good calories.
We don't talk calories.
Speaker 10 (14:57):
No calories.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
On the menu, it says Pacific North US comfort Food.
Why the Pacific Northwest.
Speaker 7 (15:02):
Well, the lady that we bought it from she was
from Oregon, and when she started the restaurant thirty two
years ago, she really wanted to have Oregon type food. So,
like in front of you, this green salad, it's a
Granny Smith green salad, pinutgriggios dressing, very big seller from
a salad. And we, as you said earlier, you know,
we really want to have something for everybody. So whether
(15:23):
it's if you want to go healthy, we can do
a veggie sandwich, right. If you want to have all sugar,
we can do the Simon roll. If you want seafood,
you know, we have salmon.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Like a plate of all sugar.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
We have all options. That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
I love the Kristini plate. That's fun.
Speaker 7 (15:39):
We just started that on Monday. What we do to
kind of figure out what we want to add to
our menus. We have what we call a secret menu,
so we have a QR coat on the table that
people can scan, and then it's items that were testing.
That was one that we tested Christini and it did
so well this past Monday, we added it to our permanent.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Menu plates right remain in vogue and so that's kind
of like a way to just kind of picket stuff,
especially if you were with friends. Get a glass of wine,
I'll have a little of that. I'll have a little
of that.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Yeah. Would you say that we've recovered from COVID in
terms of the restaurant business or are we still having
some hangover from that? That's a good question. I think yes.
The answer to that is yes.
Speaker 7 (16:21):
I think the bigger issue from what I'm seeing not
only in Orange County, but statewide and nationwide, I think
people are going out to eat less. I think they're
holding back on their budget and what they're doing is
what we're seeing across the board, and I have friends
in other states that are seeing this as well, is
that we're seeing just people that they want to hold
(16:41):
back because they're not sure where the economy is going up.
So they have a big election coming up, and they're nervous.
They don't know, so I think the spend as far
as the number of people. And I talked to our
Cisco rep who's a food rep that obviously they selled
to lots of restaurants throughout southern California. They're seeing that
as well. The restaurants are not selling as much. Not
necessarily that they're not profitable, but they're just they're just
seeing customers pulling back and not going out as much
(17:03):
as they used to.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
All right, Tim Cheryl Campbell from Plum's Cafe find him
on the seventeenth Street and coast to Mesa. You can
find him on Instagram and Facebook as well. Plum's Cafe,
and when you're in Newport, checkout Cappi's Cafe right there
on the West Coast Highway or across from the beach.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Thanks for teaching me about Dutch Baby. That's fun to say.
Speaker 10 (17:20):
Thank you guys for of course you come down to
see us.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
You're gonna I'm gonna get through the cinemon roll before
I come down to business.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
Calm down's know what's gonna take it away from you.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
You don't know that I've seeing these people around here.
Speaker 9 (17:34):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
A M six forty stop the show.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Oh okay, we've done a good thing.
Speaker 8 (17:46):
I'm crying you guys that baby jo.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
So what's the other?
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (17:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (17:53):
I just so awful and so last I guess Shannon
and says, oh my god, I say.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
I appreciate that. You're welcome.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Oh I thought that was going to be over the
Chris Stapleton video.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Well there is also you should watch that.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
No.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
I was going to cry today. Yeah, thank you for
recommending the Chris Stapleton music video. It's on Twitter. I
didn't know that was gore where that was going. Yes,
but it was actually quite cool. It was great.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
It was wonderful.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
It was the most wonderful thing I've seen in a
long time.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
And it's funny because it starts out in a way
and I'm trying to starts out and you think, how
is he gonna who? I think I'm in love with you,
but it doesn't seem like that's what the theme of
the song is. Again at Gary and Shannon on Twitter
is where you can act sorries. Where you're going to
find our link to that video.
Speaker 5 (18:52):
So, hey, Gary and Channon, you might want to mention
that the interview that Kamala has today is pre recorded
and no doubt edited by CNN before they present it.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Thanks, okay, we do, Yes, it is being pre recorded.
We don't know if it's being edited.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
We don't know, but uh, it'll probably have to be
edited somewhat if they're gonna include other elements in that
in that show, if they're gonna show them in Georgia
or whatever, talking to voters the bus. Take me around
the bus, show me the I can see Dana bash saying,
giving him me a tour of the bus.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
How lame, I can see it. That's all lame.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
What's your favorite ice cream?
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Exactly? How do you eat ribs?
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Uh? It's time for a strange science.
Speaker 9 (19:42):
Strange, it's like weird science, but strange.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Did you eat that whole cinnamon roll over there?
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I ate the four pieces of cinnamon roll that they
gave us. It was not a two pound cinnamon role
that I ate. Are you concerned about my blood sugar
right now? No, I've only got twenty minutes with you. Fine,
Oh we have a meeting after that.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Oh my goodness.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
So I saw this story and it's pretty cool, the
idea that we have developed medicines for humans that can
actually have an impact on other things in this world.
Several meters underwater off the coast of bon Air, which
is a small island in the South Caribbean, a bio
(20:32):
micro and marine biologist floated in front of a large
head of boulder brain coral. It looks kind of like
the folds that you'd find in a brain pattern across
the surface, looks like what you might find in a maze,
maybe on the back of a cereal box. And from
a syringe, this ecologist squeezes a toothpaste like substance into
(20:55):
her hand and then pushes it onto the surface of
the coral around the edge of a splotch that had
recently appeared and the coral. That's proof that the coral
was sick and they're hoping that this paste might actually
help heal it. It's called stony coral tissue loss disease
and has been ravaging some of the reefs across the Caribbean.
(21:17):
The thing is they're saying that they can treat it
with medicines that are used for the for humans. They're
trying desperately to stop this spread, so they're smearing these
corals with antibiotics it would otherwise be used on human beings,
(21:37):
and at this point they're successful. I don't know if
they know what the long term effect would be on
this coral, but at least it's working in the meantime.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Do you remember when we told you the story of
the gay penguins, Most recently the gay penguin Spin died
at eleven. Spin raised two chicks with his male penguin partner.
It was a sad tale, but one of love.
Speaker 9 (22:01):
Well.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
In Chile, there are two male flamingos named Arthur and Curtis,
and they have successfully hatched an egg together, a first
for the Painton Zoo there in Chile. The zoo has
had several all male pairings during the past breeding seasons,
so the same sex couple not an unexpected turn of events,
(22:25):
But the zoo is not really clear about how the
couple acquired the egg.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Where did that egg come from?
Speaker 1 (22:32):
They stole the egg from where did Arthur and Curtis
find that egg? During breeding season, the couples usually spend
more time together follow each other around the enclosure, but
a pairing is confirmed when two birds pick a nest
to share, where they will take turns sitting on the
mud mound with or without an egg. This year, however,
(22:54):
Curtis and Arthur had an egg to sit on. It's
only happened a handful of times.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
At other zoos.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
I say the successful hatching between two males highlights the
birds innate parental instincts and flexibility.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
They say that the chick is about a month old,
appears to be thriving.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
What's its name?
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Observed? They haven't named it yet. Oh, they have observed
exploring the exhibit with another chick that's about the same age.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Did you see the picture of the baby flamingo?
Speaker 2 (23:23):
It looks like a chicken.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Isn't that sweet?
Speaker 2 (23:25):
It looks like a chicken with beefy legs.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
Yeah, I love it. I love a baby.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Flamingos do often have non breeding partnerships that consist of
same sex associations. The birds tend to be very particular
in who they like to spend their time with. They'll
actively seek out birds in a flock and avoid others.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Are these the ones that eat salmon and that's how
they get the coloring.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Flamingos don't eat salmon.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Oh, well, there's something that eats salmon, and the coloring
they do eat.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
They do eat what do they call it, plankton? They
don't need plankton. They eat something that does, yes, that
turns their feathers pink. But it's not salmon. It's a
different kind of Are.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
You worried that you're going to turn pink because you
had salmon last night and that's why you were pushing back.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
That's why I'm so adamant about it.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Okay, Flamingos get their pink color from the carotenoids found
in their food, their red, yellow and orange pigments found
in many plants, including algae, brian, shrimp, and mollusks. Okay,
I mean I was shrimp salmon.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Come on, right, it's pretty much the same. They're angia both,
right and both. We'll continue with strange science.
Speaker 9 (24:40):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
And a lot of people are convinced, by the way,
and we're getting talk backs. I don't need to plan,
but convinced that the the CNN interview was edited. I'm
not saying it's not. I'm just saying we don't. I
won't know what it is.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
It's more in my opinion, it's more likely than not
that it will be edited and they will come out
right away and say this was edited for time, but
we didn't edit out any sort of moment or I
don't know how they're going to do it, but their
credibility is on the line. CNN has just as much
riding on this as Kamala Harris does.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
Which is weird. It would be weird to me that
they wouldn't also make it. I can understand they edit
it for time. They want to add in the let's
take a tour of the bus and what's your favorite
ice cream? That stuff, but they don't have to. I mean,
it's going to be a ratings bonanza for them, whether
it's twenty minutes or forty seven minutes.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
Yeah, but it's not just a bit. You can't be
shortsighted about it. Yes, it's a ratings bonanza today. But
if they edit this down, if it's obvious, if it's
ten minutes, then in the future nobody's going.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
To go to them.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
That's what I mean is that it would behoove them
to do the whole thing unedited. Yes, so that they
look at least fair, Yes, at the very least fair.
Speaker 7 (25:59):
Excuse me, Gary, the island of bon Air, Yes, I
mean Boner Island.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Sorry, no, it's spelled differently bon Air bo in a bo.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
But what is a Boner Island?
Speaker 2 (26:11):
I don't know. I don't know, but I'm sure that a.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
New show on Fox this fall.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Who put this story in our pile of science? Which
one the one where the headline reads what your seamen
says about your health?
Speaker 6 (26:26):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (26:26):
I threw that one away.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
I will follow suit you.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Oh no, I didn't throw it away.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Well, go ahead and toss it. We're not doing that
story that's inappropriate. Call your doctor if you're worried about
something that. Don't come to the Gary and Shannon Show
for help with that.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (26:43):
When to see a doctor persistent changes, professional regular checkups.
You can open communication with your doctor crucial for maintaining
your health. All right, let's talk about it. Can provide
valuable insight?
Speaker 3 (26:56):
No no, no, no, no no no.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Hey, why does every spider story have to have pictures
of spiders? Can't you just tell me what the spiders
are doing without horrifying me with images of said spider?
Speaker 3 (27:08):
Usually very close up.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Do you mean this this? This one?
Speaker 1 (27:14):
No? No?
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Which was one? Oh? That one? Yes, there's a couple
of good deadly, deadly spider and creature stories.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
The spider in China, the Eraneus ventricusus, has found a
way to hack the fireflies bioluminescent signals to lure more
fireflies to its web.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
Big of it. This way, spider spider spins a web
firefly firefly flies into the web. Then the spider goes
up to that trapped firefly and tickles something that makes
the firefly light up and flash, which brings more fireflies
(27:58):
to the web and they all die.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
Out comes the sun and dries up all the rain,
and the itsy bitsy spider climbs up.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
The spouting up the spout again again again speaking of
deadly animals, A bristle worm, who boy, has been found,
Oh my god along the coast of Texas.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
Listen to this.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
According to the Heart Research Institute for Gulf of Mexico
Studies at Texas A and M. Corpus Christi, a scientist
found a bristle worm. He said he hasn't seen one
there in about three to four years.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
The worms were first described two hundred and fifty years
ago by Prussian naturalist Peter Simon Palace. It was page
one oh six of his Latin book from seventeen sixty six.
He says that these worms, these venomous worms, can grow
to be about eight inches inches long. Each worm is
(28:57):
composed of sixty to one hundred and fifty different segments
covered by hollow bristles that easily get stuck in human
skin and deposit painful venom. It feels like you're on
fire if the bristleworm gets to you, if you get
unlucky enough to feel the dizziness the searing pain from
(29:20):
the venom. They say to quickly cover the problem area
with duct tape, then rip the tape off to remove
the bristles, and then just like with a jellyfish, wash
the area with white vinegar and warm water or urine.
But it's going to be painful no matter what.
Speaker 6 (29:39):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
There's a video on YouTube nope from a channel named
Brave Wilderness. Two guys get attacked and stung by these
venerous and venomous and dangerous animals from all over the
world under the supervision of trained professionals. It says one
guy has a videotitle titled burned by a giant fireworm
(30:00):
And after nine minutes of talking blah blah blah, he
brushes a fireworm over his arm and then quickly starts
having a bad time. The veins in his neck stick
out like the bristles in his arm, and he describes
the pain through gritted teeth, and after talking for a
little bit, he uses tape and says he feels immediate relief.
Apparently puts the tape on the bristles and is able
(30:23):
to peel them back.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
Who just has random duct tape with them?
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Well, at the beach, they're with trained professionals.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
Not everywhere where these things are washing up.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
If you're looking for the next thing. I know Michael
Crichton has passed, but we spoke about him yesterday. This
is a great premise for a Michael Crichton like book.
Scientists have unearthed the remnants of more than seventeen hundred
viruses from deep inside a glacier in western China, and
most of them, up to this point completely unknown to science.
(30:58):
Science has gathered one one thousand foot ice core are
taken from the Gulila Glacier on the Tibetan plateau. They
said it dates back somewhere forty forty plus thousand years
and spans three major shifts from cold to warm. The
viruses differed markedly between the colder and the warmer. Eras
noting that a distinct community of viruses formed during the
(31:21):
most dramatic of these climatic shifts at the end of
the last ice Age, and they said, at least indicates
the potential connection between viruses and climate change, whether they
are causing it or changing as a result of it.
It's a very scary place to be, well, I mean,
on the Earth.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
On the Earth.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Yes, that's why I want to be a trapped astronaut.
I'll stay up there till next year in my soiled underwear.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
The problem is you're going to miss an entire football season.
Oh right, I'm sure they have the ability to keep
up on it, but it's probably not the same.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
In one week football begins Thursday Night Football.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
We're gonna have to do some new stuff this year
for a gas Fantasy four play.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
What do you have in mind?
Speaker 2 (32:06):
I don't know. I'll come up with some ideas.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
I feel like we need to have more skin in
the game, like the loser of the weekend or the
you know, I don't know, it has to do something embarrassing,
run around here and you know, with pom poms and
say I'm a loser.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
How about not just the loser, but and it wouldn't
count if it was a loser. But if somebody goes perfect,
if someone goes four and oh yeah, then everybody else
has to do something.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Or if somebody goes oh to four, ooh, that's then
they have to pay for it, okay.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
With their with their skin in the game.
Speaker 2 (32:42):
I like it.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
Integrity, all right.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
The John co Belt Show starring Phil Schuman is coming
