Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app. That music is a sign that
Tony Sorrentino is on the board this morning. And in
Gary's chair is Leaila Mohammed. Laila, thank you for being here.
Good morning.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
I have way more energy today. By the way, I
love Tony. We get stuck on the D list crew
sometimes on weekend mornings where there's no one here but
the two of us, and he's the best.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
I love Tony too. He's been here for five thousand years.
I didn't know that about him. He told me that one. Yeah,
how many years has it been, Tony? He's like, so long,
I don't even want to talk to you. Put eight
since ninety seven? Why seven? Is that real? Yeah? The
first day on the board was Dave Princess Danda died. Wow,
what a start, I know, right, my gosh, I'm.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Surprised they've kept you here that this long. Some people
will take pretty quickly. I'm surprised you haven't burned the building.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Down, I know, right, like I haven't planned what?
Speaker 3 (00:57):
All?
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Right, Well, we've got tons to get to today. Of
course we'll start with the interview because I thought she
did a great job. I mean, I've been waiting for
this person to show up, Leila. I've gotten a lot
of heat over the years because I've been disappointed in
her appearances Kamala Harris of Courses, who were talking about
I've been disappointed in her off the cuff remarks. I've
(01:21):
heard bad things in terms of the coverage of her
being difficult to work with and the exodus of her staff,
and it's led me to believe that she is not
a likable person because of that, and last night I
think she hit it out of the park.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I got up this morning to fully watch the interview
because when it was on last night, I was unfortunately
in one of those evening classes that last past nine.
Won't talk about that, right, that's start, So I got
up early watched the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
I agree.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I think her composure, I think her ability to remain
clear and calm. She I love that she did not
address some foolishness. And the one thing that I love
that she did not address is the comment about whether
or not she's black that has been driving me crazy
for weeks. Now we can move on to something bigger
and better.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
I love that she did not even touch it. Yeah,
we actually have that cut Tony is cut for.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
I want to ask you about your opponent's Donald Trump.
I was a little bit surprised. People might be surprised
to hear that you have never interacted with him, met
him face to face.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
That's going to change soon.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
But what I want to ask you about is what
he said last month. He suggested that you happened to
turn black recently for political purposes, questioning a core park
of your identity, any same old.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Tired playbook, next question, Please, that's it. That's it. I mean,
that was the way to do it. She's obviously a
black woman, and that's all she needs to do is
show up as a black woman.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
In my opinion, well, at the end of the day,
we have to be honest about how we view people
in this country and around the world, because I feel
like in many cultures, not just America, many cultures, people
who look browner or darker skin are treated differently.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
That's the bottom line. It is true.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
People will tell you that in Hispanic culture, they'll tell
you that in Indian culture. At the end of the day,
when people see klm ly they see a black woman
before if we would have never told you that her
mother was Indian. You look at her and you see
that somewhere in the bloodline, somebody's black and it is
what it is. But for that to be a whole
campaign conversation, it's just ignorant. We have way more important
things to worry about. People can't afford to live in
(03:24):
their apartments, let alone by a house. You can't afford
to go to the gas station, the grocery store. There's
a lot going on. People are fighting for reproductive rights.
We have bigger issues than whether or not a candidate
is black. I don't know where, Honestly, I don't know
where Trump's family is from. I don't care to go
digging doesn't affect good lights. Who knows, I don't care.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
I don't want to. It's irrelevant. It's irrelevant. Yeah, yeah,
I heard demeans.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
She learned.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I think everyone learned from Hillary Clinton too, because Hillary
hit us over the head with the fact that she's
a woman, woman, woman, woman, and it drove me insane
how people would say, well, because you're a woman, you
have to vote for her. It's like when Biden said
if if you don't vote for me, you wain't black?
Why why ignorant to right all of that? Like, I
just I get upset when people say, well, it's a woman,
(04:08):
you should vote for her because she's a woman, And
it's like, we don't all vote alike, we don't all
have the same ideas or policies or preferences. Just because
you're a woman doesn't mean you're that just like the
next woman. Just because you're a black person doesn't mean
you're like the next black person. So it bothers me
that that is a talking point as well. And I'm
glad that she put it to bed. And I think
(04:29):
she did put that to bed.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
And Dana wasn't ready for that. I thought she was
ready for a longer answer because she had to shift
nervous in that moment, she had to shift quickly to
the next question.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
I don't think she was.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
I think she probably thought the vice president has been
a little bit longer addressing it. But why you know,
I'm sitting down with you. What was this a thirty
minute interview?
Speaker 1 (04:44):
I was cringing a little bit. When she's like, and
that's it, I was like, yeah, I think that's it.
To your point she did talk about well, first of all,
before we get to the middle class. I thought it
was very clever of her that she made an issue
out of children. She said, I see you, JD. Vans,
(05:05):
and I raise you. You can talk about the childless
cat ladies, but I'm going to actually do something for
people that have children. Tony cutt one.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
Prices in particular for groceries are still too high. The
American people know what I know it, which is why
my agenda includes what we need to do to bring
down the price of groceries, for example, dealing with an
issue like price gouging, what we need to do to
extend the child tax credit to help young families be
able to take care of their children in their most
formative years. What we need to do to bring down
(05:35):
the cost of housing. My proposal includes what would be
a tax credit of twenty five thousand dollars for first
time home buyers so they can just have enough to
put a down payment on a home, which is part
of the American dream and their aspiration, but do it
in a way that allows them to actually get on
the path to achieving that goal in that dream.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
And that's what people care about. To your point, that's
what they care about. They care about grocery prices, they
care about being able to get into a home. And
she was very measured. She didn't appear to be condescending
or defensive in this interview the way that she's come off.
She came off that way with Lester Holt in twenty
twenty one when he pressed her on the border and
she just she had this look about her where she
(06:18):
was just kind of drilling into him with her eyes
like how dare you asked me this question? And it
came across on TV and she did not have that.
She was absent of that last night.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Do you find yourself because of what we do and
how you know, our job in interviewing people is also
we read boy language and eye contact and do you
find because we come from that perspective that we tend
to do that and we're watching. Yes, So it's like
with her, like you sit in the past, you may
have come off as condescending or you know whatever her
inner booth Lester Holt, I feel like maybe there's been
some work with her and her team. Oh yeah, but
(06:49):
the boot camp or yeah, there's some media coaching, some
boot camping happening. Where I noticed it the most in
watching was where she was talking about the nieces, the
bacon and all that stuff, and that shift to Biden.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
It was like she was smiling.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Oh, I was in the kitchen making pancakes and the
maniece's wanted more bacon, and then Biden called and then
that tone shift and that softening. I was like, ooh, yeah,
someone's been studying. That was almost masterful.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
We'll play that, Yes, we'll play that for you when
we come back. Also, why did CNN tease us with
word salads? She had like two word salad moments that
she's had in the past where she just says things
without saying anything, And there were a couple moments of that,
but that wasn't the takeaway. But those were the clips
that they released initially, So we'll talk about that as well.
Speaker 6 (07:36):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on Demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Coming up in the next hour, we will get to
the story of the missing elderly couple from the Olive
Dell nudist ranch. This is near Redlands. They now say
that there has been an arrest in the case. A
neighbor of this couple Dan and Stephanie. They believe that
the bodies are in his home. They're going to bring
(08:04):
in canines and search crews today to go through his
home or compound or whatever. The fact that they believe
the bodies are in his home but not have not
found them yet leads me to believe that it's a
sprawling property. So we'll get the latest on that. Leila
Mohammed is in today and we were talking about Kamala
(08:25):
Harrison the interview and you said something, Leila before the break,
you said, do you think that we look for body
language and we're hyper focused to see how people are
coming off because of what we do. And I think
that the reason that I do that, especially when a
politician is being interviewed, is because we don't know who
these people are. Yeah, you never will fully know, No,
(08:45):
you don't. So you have to read the cues because
they're saying whatever is advantageous to them in their career, right,
or what they want you to think that they believe.
So you have to kind of pick up on those
nonverbal cues to get a sense of who they are.
You also, before the break that she talked about the
Biden phone call. This was the phone call when he
told Kamala Harris that he was leaving the ticket.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
When he called you and said he was pulling out
of the race, what was that like And.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Did he offer to endorse you right away or did
you ask for it?
Speaker 5 (09:17):
Was it was a Sunday, So here, I'll give you
a little too much information.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Go for it.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
There's no such thing as a vice president.
Speaker 5 (09:26):
My family was staying with us and including my baby nieces,
and we had just had pancakes and you know, Auntie,
can I have more bacon?
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Yes, I'll make you more bacon.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
And then we were gonna sit We were sitting down
to do a puzzle and the phone rang and it
was Joe Biden and he told me what he had
decided to do. And I asked him, are you sure?
And he said, yeah, yes, And that's how I learned
(10:04):
about it.
Speaker 4 (10:05):
And what about the endorsement? Did you ask for it?
Speaker 5 (10:09):
And he was very clear that he was gonna support men.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Again, this is all very much by design. Kamala Harris
did not get to where she is by not being
super focused and strategic when it comes to things that
she says, or things or her positions or.
Speaker 5 (10:24):
What have you.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Yeah, She has had issues in the past with misstepping
and word salads, but the whole anti Can I have
more bacon? I mean Trump made a big thing out
of bacon at one of his rallies recently. You can't
even buy bacon, like he's ever shopped for bacon. That
was by design. She's sitting there going, look, look, I'm
a childless woman, but I'm an antie and I make
(10:46):
bacon and I buy and I do puzzles. My grandmother
still loves a good puzzle. I do too.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Yeah, it's been a long time. But when she said
that was like, I should probably play a puzzle.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Advertising, I was like, I should probably eat some more
bac But that was all by design, and it was
it was just very strategic. Yes, And the way that
she softened when she mentioned the Biden phone call also
by design. But I bought it. It worked. She also
is appealing to Republicans. When she talked about wanting a
(11:19):
Republican member of her cabinet, had a lot.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
Of Republican speakers at the convention. Will you appoint the
Republican to your cabinet?
Speaker 5 (11:26):
Yes, I would, no one in particular mine. I we
got sixty eight days to go with this election. So
I'm not putting the car before the horse, but I would.
I think I think it's really important. I have spent
my career inviting diversity of opinion. I think it's important
to have people at the table and when some of
(11:47):
the most important decisions are being made that have different views,
different experiences. And I think it would be to the
benefit of the American public to have a member of
my cabinet who was a Republican.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Freshing.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
Yeah, listen, if you're speaking about how you want to
bring people together and that we need to all be
on the same page for the betterment of our country.
You know, politicians always give this speech somewhere along the
way paraphrasing here, you got to put the action into play.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
So if you believe that, then put a Republican in
the cabinet.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
I don't think that we're going to hear Donald Trump
say that he'll put a Democrat in his cabinet.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
That's just not going to happen. No, And I mean
that's what a lot of people have been talking about
with the Project twenty twenty five situation of the organizers
of that, the writers of that, and and Trump said,
I have have nothing to do with it, but there's
this shadow narrative that those are going to be his
cabinet members, the people that put forth that agenda. Some
(12:43):
of the conservative people are hitting hard on Tim Walls
this morning. Tim Walls, by the way, he looked like
Captain Phillips. What was he even doing there? I don't like,
he didn't even he topic seven words and he was
just sat there like a prisoner.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Maybe that was strategic to just just show them as
a united front, you know, yeah, But it just feel
like sometimes he softens, maybe her in the areas that
people don't really feel like. Maybe she's relatable in certain points.
He's like the coach, the guy that we all know
that kind of like the coach next door.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
This is just my take on it. Looking at it,
like maybe his whole point was just to show a
unit at front. He did not say much, but when
he spoke about family, we can tell deeply that he
loves his family and cares about his family.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
I think was a misstep and he's getting a lot
of heat for it. Today. When he addressed the campaign
materials that was talking about video that talking about guns
and keeping guns out of schools and so you know,
there's fewer school shootings and things like that. And he
said that the weapons of war, the weapons I carried,
should stay at war, and which he did not. He
(13:44):
did not carry weapons of war, and Dana Bash pushed
him on it. Cut seven, Tony.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
I want to ask you a question about how you've
described your service in the National Guard. You said that
you carried weapons in war, but you have never deployed
actually in a war zone. A campaign official said that
you misspoke, did you well?
Speaker 7 (14:05):
First of all, I'm incredibly proud I've done twenty four
years of wearing the uniform of this country. Equally proud
of my service in a public school classroom, whether it's
Congress or the governor. My record speaks for itself, but
I think people are coming to it to know me.
I speak like they do, I speak candidly, I wear
my emotions on my sleeves, and I speak especially passionately
(14:26):
about our children being shot in schools and around guns.
So I think people know me, they know who I am,
they know where my heart is. And again, my record
has been out there for over forty years to speak
for itself.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
And the idea that you said that you were in war.
Did you miss speak? As the campaign has said.
Speaker 7 (14:46):
I said we were talking about in this case, this
was after school shooting the ideas of carrying these weapons
of war and my wife the English could turn. My
grammar's not always correct. But again, if it's not this,
it's an attack on my children for showing love for me,
or it's an attack on my dog, I'm not going
to do that. And the one thing I'll never do
is I'll never demean another member's service in any way.
I never have, uh and I never will.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
I thought that was kind of dodgy of him, and
then using the children and the dog and those I mean,
come on, well he redirected again, That's that's part of
the training. I just say, you screwed up. Just say
I I I A said he misspoke, right, Yeah, that's
not grammar. Grammar is not factual, heirs.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Grammar is not that you are one per correct, and
he misspoke. He should have just owned that and kept
it moving.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Did he did? He serve? Yes?
Speaker 2 (15:30):
And that's commendable, right it is. I mean, I'm you
know how I feel about the military.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
I'm absolutely child.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
My dad also served twenty four years, so he served.
It is what it is. He misspoke. He should own
up to that. We're also splitting hairs of whether or
not his wife had IVF or some other form of treatment.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Personally, I don't care. I don't. I don't. It's just
we have other bigger fish to frag Get the grocery
prices down.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Yeah, we have a We have a lot of everyday
things we need to worry about.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Coming up next, speaking of the military, Arlington Gate continues. Now,
we're hearing from a gold Star family that is not
pleased with Trump's outing there and the altercation from one
of the campaign's staff members and a cemetery employee. Will
get into that when we return. Gary and Channon will continue.
Leila is here and.
Speaker 6 (16:12):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Did you hear this horrible story out of New Jersey?
Oh my goodness. Columbus Blue Jackets hockey star Johnny Goodrow
was killed in a bicycle accident last night in New Jersey,
around his hometown. His brother was also killed in this accident.
They were struck by a drunk driver in a jeep Cherokee.
(16:37):
The two were set to be groomsmen in their sister
Katie's wedding today.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
So Katie lost her brothers, yes, right in the family,
not just Katie right, and then this is supposed to
be the happiest day of her life.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Is she going to even go find I was gonna say, no,
you don't have the wedding, and then do you even
have the wet Like, when do you recover from that
and the guilt you would feel for them being because
of it your wedding. I mean, it's horrible that these
things happen, right, and they're horrible. The reason we're hearing
about it is because he's a hockey star. But still
it just rips your heart out when you hear things
(17:11):
like that.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Breaks my heart for that family. But yeah, how do
you even do you postpone for a year or six months?
Speaker 1 (17:17):
I don't even know how. I don't know, I don't know.
There's no playbooks for that about that right now?
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Yeah. New survey shows the use of cannabis among young
adults is at historically high levels. University of Michigan has
released its annual study called Monitoring the Future at track
substance use trends among adults in the country shows about
forty two percent of adults ages nineteen to thirty or
reported using cannabis, with about ten percent using it every day.
(17:45):
For the first time. In the survey, more women reported
using cannabis than men. Interesting, they're not drinking, they're just
using the gummies and things.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Maybe I think maybe the gummies. Did you hear about
the American who's going to go marry the Norwegian king's
eldest child.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
No?
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Oh, yeah, the Princess Martha Louise is marrying this self
professed shaman tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Oh, I'd watch that movie. I'm like, are we gonna
televise it? No, we're not. We don't care.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
But you know when Americans go go marry royalty, I
get a little excited.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
It is fun. Huh, it's like a dream.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
It's like Megan took my life and didn't stay over
there for our own reasons.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
It's fine, it's a fair tale y, But I just
I'm like, man, are.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
There any eligible prince or king bachelor's left in this world?
Speaker 1 (18:30):
We could probably figure that out.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Not one who's struggling or they don't really have like
an empire or staff, Like, find me one who has
the whole.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Here's the thing with men.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
When they're raised.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
With money, they come with a whole set of issues,
a sole set of problems. Most when you have a
spoiled boy, he doesn't always translate to a stable man.
I kind of keep that. They kind of keep that
spoiled thing. All right. Now, I'm gonna get in trouble
with men. Okay, whatever, it's fine. I have You're back.
(19:08):
We're sitting here. We're two child with cat ladies. You're fine,
We're fine. Okay. So, families of American service members who
were killed during the withdrawal from Afghanistan have revealed that
they did give approval for photos and videos to be
taken at Arlington Cemetery on Monday. This is after a
(19:30):
Green Beret service member. His family spoke out and said, hey,
we didn't give permission for Trump to use our son's
grave in the campaign materials. He died by suicide after
eight tours. It's not okay. So now the families that
did give permission are speaking up. But this is not
(19:51):
going away. May This is stayed in the headlines that
he went there. He was supposed to be honoring these
service members, thirteen who were killed and he turned around
and used it as campaign materials, which always leaves a
bad taste in my mouth. It's like, if you're going
to do something good, just go do the good thing.
You don't have to like get credit for it or
take a victory lap. Just go do the good thing.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
But I think the families who invited him, the three
in particular, who I don't think they cared that that
was part of a campaign thing because they wanted him
there because he knew of their son's stories. But the
other families who were saying like, hey, I didn't give
you permission to you know, my son's grave was in
the background, and that's part of your campaignents here. I
understand where they're coming from too, But as a former
president and one who's still running, you know, campaigns to
(20:36):
be president again, you should just know that this that
this is like sort of a sacred area, right like
this is these are people who've served, who've lost their
lives and representing and defending our country or maybe after that,
and we just respect Arlington.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Yeah, you know, the altercation or the alleged altercation from
one of his staff members and somebody who worked at
the cemetery, I don't care about that. I care about
what the military families think. And as a voter, I
care that you go do something for for just doing good,
you know, and you don't you don't hoore it out.
But that's what politicians do. That's what they do. Just
(21:10):
they all do. Yeah, yeah, I don't know if they're all.
Can I say that word on the radio? Can I
say that? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (21:17):
I just said it twice. I come from the news backgrounds.
I don't know my boundaries.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
The only rule is that I'm not allowed to say
penis before eleven and I spoke that.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
We broke that rule, but only right. The contract was different. Okay, gotcha.
So you say you don't think this is going away anytime.
So now there are not gonna be any charges pressed
about the shoving and the pushing.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
But because she said or the whoever, the person who
works at the cemetery says that they were afraid of
retribution from the Trump people. Oh yeah, I do remember that. Yeah,
we've got a good old fashioned terror in the skies,
childless cat lady. Addition, also a guy who loses his temper.
(21:57):
You're for lost your temper at an airline counter.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
I've allowed my last name is mohammed. Oh yeah, I
don't act up in the airport.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
I learned that smart.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Yea, look at your ba I'm not being funny, I'm
dead serious.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Oh yeah, you know.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Right after and listen right after nine to eleven, when everything,
you know, the restrict the rules were tightened and the
security measures were heightened.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
I'm like, okay, it is what it is.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
I get it. I was always selected. You've been pre
selected for like the additional screen. But I travel on
flying if now, like, I'm never selected for anything. I
just go through you know, pre check whatever, global entry.
Nobody bothers me now, but I would. I'm not a
person who's going to act out on a plane or
at a counter because I already know what it is, right,
I won't be able.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
To fight yet. I've seen people, so I'm not that person.
Yeah that's good. I've seen people lose their minds, like
a toddler and a grocery store type tantrum.
Speaker 6 (22:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
I don't mind when the toddler does it well for
like five seconds, but I do mind when it's a
grown up. And now those videos bad look circulate people
having meltdowns. What's the one recently the guy's yelling at
the flight of the gate agent and she wouldn't let
him on his flight because he got there, I guess
be after the ten minute mark where they closed the gate,
and he's like, he says something about her hair, like
I think he liked her hair, sola whatever, and they're like,
(23:06):
we want to see her hair. You know, we can't
see her in the video. But it's like, what's happening.
They're crying, They're melting down. It's affecting their jobs. It's
you know, starting to boil your your son. Oh this
is worth These These were all spoilt men. I've seen
women have melt down.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
I have to usually more women than men. All Right,
we'll do tear in the guys when we come back.
Gary and Shannon will continue. Laila Mohammed is in.
Speaker 6 (23:27):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty tony.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Do you know where the Terror in the sky's button is? Yes, awesome,
let's do that.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Roger, get off my plane.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Roderick Rogers's octor, Victor, I haven't had put these munkey
pipe snakes on this money to private.
Speaker 6 (23:52):
It's Gary and Shannon's Terror in the skies on KFI.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
I apologize for the garlic bagel that I just ate.
I didn't realize that was garlic. I thought it was
like sesame seeds or something. Well, and now all I
smell is just my my garlic breath and it's not great.
I can't smell it. But Eric did not warn you
that it was scarlet.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
He says, Oh, there's cream, cheese and bag and I
can't eat cheese right now, which makes me sad, or really.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Bagels I've been having. I've been cutting back on my
recreational cheese, just cheese for the sake of having cheese,
and that's why I attacked that bagel and cream cheese.
I think because I've been cutting it out.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
I'm doing no cheese for the next several I'm doing
this this whole seventy five hard, playing with my sister,
and we've seen some results.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
It's great.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
But I took dairy. You can kind of choose what
you want to remove from your diet in addition to
like you no alcohol and you know whatever, I'm doing
no dairy as one of my things because I love
I can sit down and watch a good movie with
the plate of just random cheese, olives and crackers.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
And now wait, let me show you the cheese plate
that I put down. You put grapes on there too.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
I love a little grape, my little homemade charcuti, a
little grapes and cheese and olives.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
I was on the charter flight for the Chargers coming
back from Dallas. Fancy you are, so, I'm so fancy.
And this was my cheese plate that the flight at
Tenant made. Do you like dinner? She's like string, Oh yeah,
it's all the cheeses, Colby cheese. It's a pepper pepper cheet,
(25:18):
string cheese, all the crackers. But she says, do you
want We've got chicken strogan off, We've got a fish dish,
We've got something else I forget, like carne a sot
or something. And I was like, yeah, no, I'm good.
And then she's like, do you want some cheese? And
it's like I would love some cheese. So she brought
me that massive plate of cheese. Anyway, okay, speaking of
(25:39):
tear in the skuys, not just me and my cheese plate.
Two airline passengers who locked a stranger's crying grandchild in
a plain restroom have caused outrage in China. It is
a heated online debate now on how to handle upset
children in public spaces. This went viral after one of
(26:01):
the two women involved posted a video on Chinese social media.
It showed them inside a locked lavatory with this crying girl,
who appeared to be about a year old. Woman sitting
on the toilet tells the baby, we won't let you
out until you stop crying.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
I don't think the baby understood. The child is very small,
but they say that, you know.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
One of the flight.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Attendants said, listen, this tantrum was so disruptive that passengers
were using tissue to block their ears, while others had
to move to the back of the plane to escape
the noise.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
It was crying NonStop for three hours. Oh that's rough.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
And the child was traveling with grandparents versus you know,
like mom and death. I wonder if there was also
this separation anxiety. Listen, kids on a plane. That's already
hard for a lot of children. Their ears are popping
that I really know how to deal with the fact that,
you know, we're change in elevation and it's it's weird.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
I get it.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
I'm under the school of thought that whatever helps them sleep,
knock them out and let them sleep for the three hours.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
I don't know if this is racist, but I have
a feeling that people in China don't play when it
comes to disciplining their children. I think it's safe to
say that, but you should. You started with I don't
know if this is racist. I'm like, oh, lord, and
then I kept going, I know that's awful. No, you know,
like the tiger mom thing of just like expecting a
lot out of your.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
Your children, or just community parenting, like we don't tolerate this.
You know, back in the day when we were younger
and a neighbor could reprimand you and then call your
mom and say, hey, Shannon was over here doing this
and I checked her about that, and I'm letting you
know your child was doing this. That doesn't happen today.
There's no community parenting, and maybe this is you know,
still part of the culture. They can community parent say
your child is out of order, the child is screaming
(27:39):
NonStop for three hours, and now locking the kid in
the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
You know, I don't know, I wouldn't do that. Why
did community parenting go away? I don't just people getting
to an insular or weird about raising.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Their kids, don't know our neighbors anymore. Yeah, it's that
we used to know. I mean, we knew our neighbors.
We knew their parents, They knew my parents. We didn't
have cell phones, they had each other's phone numbers. Somebody
could walk you home to your mom and dad and
say your child was acting out in my neighborhood and
I'm bringing your kid home. And my parents weren't offended.
They would didn't reprimand me too. We were allowed to
(28:15):
be reprimanded by a neighbor's parents.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
My parents' neighbors for the most part, who were there
when I grew up, have died and their kids live
in the homes now for the most part. But when
I was an adult, I remember feeling a little bit
of shame when I saw some of them because I
was a little hell raiser teenager that you know, drove
too fast and the cul de sac and the whole bit,
(28:39):
and they would just you know, sternly look at me,
or they yell at me community parentings. And then when
I became an adult and they were still alive, and
I'd see them living my you know, walking with the
lord life like I'm not a hell raiser anymore, but
just feeling that embarrassment of they knew me when I
was seventeen and awful. But yeah, it is. It is
a weird thing. I missed those days. All right, good morning,
(29:03):
thanks for stopping. Bye, we're live. Do you know who
that is? That's the new president of the company. Come
on in, it's our new boss. And they unlocked the door.
Sometimes they allow me to fill in. Are you listening?
Like a raise, I'll send.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
You my number, okay, just just but I'm part time,
so you probably don't care.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
She's talking to like he's a rando in the hall,
like we're on the air. We're on the air, Okay,
you can I.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Say this to you, though, I commend the fact that
did you notice the parking garage is emptdse. Folks don't
work around here, maybe like once a week. But the
fact that you're.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Here on a Friday before the holiday is just amazing.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
No, I'm serious, that's good to be here, right, but
it's you, like, you don't have to be here.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Why are you here? No, it's a holiday weekend. The
captain's got to be on the ship.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
Two of this.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
No one else would would care. They'll just let the
ship go down and they'll say, why don't y'all.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
Keep it afloat. Well, good to see you, nice to meet,
don't fire me, nice.
Speaker 5 (30:12):
Doll.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
That's why I woke up this morning. That was great.
It seems so cool. So he's just walking around waving,
I know, and he's always here on days when nobody
else is here. Well, no one care. Most days. I've
seen some people once a week. Ever, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursdays,
those are the strong days. Well, they stopped by for
like two hours.
Speaker 5 (30:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
Oh, Chris Little comes in from about one to three.
I wasn't gonna call anyone out, but nobody cares because
they only want him to be here from one to three. Chris,
Chris knows. I love him.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
He's kind of I've kind of saught it when it
comes to Chris over the years.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Had five years. I haven't too, I have two or
I did. I did a long time ago. I softened.
So there was a man trying to check in for
his American Airlines flight to Miami. His ticket wasn't working,
and an employee told him he and be able to
board the flight. Video, of course, captures everything these days,
so he can be seen going through his luggage, taking
(31:07):
out a hammer and smashing computer screens on the counter
at the airline, Sir, what did you think was going
to happen?
Speaker 2 (31:15):
You're gonna be banned from the flight, the airline, everything else.
My thing is, sometimes these these tantrums last too long.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Well, a hammer is too far out of there.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
I've seen like fights in the airport on these videos
online and never in person, thankfully, or people yelling and
having these rants and it goes.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
On way too long.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
I'm like, how long does it take security to get
here when you have cameras all over the airport everywhere
but the bathroom, like you see everything in the airport,
and it just goes on forever.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
It's true, all right? Coming up and next we will
hook up with Michael Monks from KFI News. He is
covering the Brianna cup for murder trial. This was the
young girl who was working in the furniture store and
because we have no law and order in La County,
guy comes in and stabs her to death. It's heartbreaking
listening to her parents. Yesterday Phil Schuman was playing some
(32:05):
of that audio was really hard to get through. We'll
get an update on where that trial's going when we
come back to Gary and Shannon. You've been listening to
The Gary and Shannon Show. You can always hear us
live on KFI AM six forty nine am to one
pm every Monday through Friday, and anytime on demand on
the iHeartRadio ap
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app. That music is a sign that
Tony Sorrentino is on the board this morning. And in
Gary's chair is Leaila Mohammed. Laila, thank you for being here.
Good morning.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
I have way more energy today. By the way, I
love Tony. We get stuck on the D list crew
sometimes on weekend mornings where there's no one here but
the two of us, and he's the best.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
I love Tony too. He's been here for five thousand years.
I didn't know that about him. He told me that one. Yeah,
how many years has it been, Tony? He's like, so long,
I don't even want to talk to you. Put eight
since ninety seven? Why seven? Is that real? Yeah? The
first day on the board was Dave Princess Danda died. Wow,
what a start, I know, right, my gosh, I'm.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Surprised they've kept you here that this long. Some people
will take pretty quickly. I'm surprised you haven't burned the building.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Down, I know, right, like I haven't planned what?
Speaker 3 (00:57):
All?
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Right, Well, we've got tons to get to today. Of
course we'll start with the interview because I thought she
did a great job. I mean, I've been waiting for
this person to show up, Leila. I've gotten a lot
of heat over the years because I've been disappointed in
her appearances Kamala Harris of Courses, who were talking about
I've been disappointed in her off the cuff remarks. I've
(01:21):
heard bad things in terms of the coverage of her
being difficult to work with and the exodus of her staff,
and it's led me to believe that she is not
a likable person because of that, and last night I
think she hit it out of the park.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I got up this morning to fully watch the interview
because when it was on last night, I was unfortunately
in one of those evening classes that last past nine.
Won't talk about that, right, that's start, So I got
up early watched the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
I agree.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I think her composure, I think her ability to remain
clear and calm. She I love that she did not
address some foolishness. And the one thing that I love
that she did not address is the comment about whether
or not she's black that has been driving me crazy
for weeks. Now we can move on to something bigger
and better.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
I love that she did not even touch it. Yeah,
we actually have that cut Tony is cut for.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
I want to ask you about your opponent's Donald Trump.
I was a little bit surprised. People might be surprised
to hear that you have never interacted with him, met
him face to face.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
That's going to change soon.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
But what I want to ask you about is what
he said last month. He suggested that you happened to
turn black recently for political purposes, questioning a core park
of your identity, any same old.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Tired playbook, next question, Please, that's it. That's it. I mean,
that was the way to do it. She's obviously a
black woman, and that's all she needs to do is
show up as a black woman.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
In my opinion, well, at the end of the day,
we have to be honest about how we view people
in this country and around the world, because I feel
like in many cultures, not just America, many cultures, people
who look browner or darker skin are treated differently.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
That's the bottom line. It is true.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
People will tell you that in Hispanic culture, they'll tell
you that in Indian culture. At the end of the day,
when people see klm ly they see a black woman
before if we would have never told you that her
mother was Indian. You look at her and you see
that somewhere in the bloodline, somebody's black and it is
what it is. But for that to be a whole
campaign conversation, it's just ignorant. We have way more important
things to worry about. People can't afford to live in
(03:24):
their apartments, let alone by a house. You can't afford
to go to the gas station, the grocery store. There's
a lot going on. People are fighting for reproductive rights.
We have bigger issues than whether or not a candidate
is black. I don't know where, Honestly, I don't know
where Trump's family is from. I don't care to go
digging doesn't affect good lights. Who knows, I don't care.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
I don't want to. It's irrelevant. It's irrelevant. Yeah, yeah,
I heard demeans.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
She learned.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I think everyone learned from Hillary Clinton too, because Hillary
hit us over the head with the fact that she's
a woman, woman, woman, woman, and it drove me insane
how people would say, well, because you're a woman, you
have to vote for her. It's like when Biden said
if if you don't vote for me, you wain't black?
Why why ignorant to right all of that? Like, I
just I get upset when people say, well, it's a woman,
(04:08):
you should vote for her because she's a woman, And
it's like, we don't all vote alike, we don't all
have the same ideas or policies or preferences. Just because
you're a woman doesn't mean you're that just like the
next woman. Just because you're a black person doesn't mean
you're like the next black person. So it bothers me
that that is a talking point as well. And I'm
glad that she put it to bed. And I think
(04:29):
she did put that to bed.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
And Dana wasn't ready for that. I thought she was
ready for a longer answer because she had to shift
nervous in that moment, she had to shift quickly to
the next question.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
I don't think she was.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
I think she probably thought the vice president has been
a little bit longer addressing it. But why you know,
I'm sitting down with you. What was this a thirty
minute interview?
Speaker 1 (04:44):
I was cringing a little bit. When she's like, and
that's it, I was like, yeah, I think that's it.
To your point she did talk about well, first of all,
before we get to the middle class. I thought it
was very clever of her that she made an issue
out of children. She said, I see you, JD. Vans,
(05:05):
and I raise you. You can talk about the childless
cat ladies, but I'm going to actually do something for
people that have children. Tony cutt one.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
Prices in particular for groceries are still too high. The
American people know what I know it, which is why
my agenda includes what we need to do to bring
down the price of groceries, for example, dealing with an
issue like price gouging, what we need to do to
extend the child tax credit to help young families be
able to take care of their children in their most
formative years. What we need to do to bring down
(05:35):
the cost of housing. My proposal includes what would be
a tax credit of twenty five thousand dollars for first
time home buyers so they can just have enough to
put a down payment on a home, which is part
of the American dream and their aspiration, but do it
in a way that allows them to actually get on
the path to achieving that goal in that dream.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
And that's what people care about. To your point, that's
what they care about. They care about grocery prices, they
care about being able to get into a home. And
she was very measured. She didn't appear to be condescending
or defensive in this interview the way that she's come off.
She came off that way with Lester Holt in twenty
twenty one when he pressed her on the border and
she just she had this look about her where she
(06:18):
was just kind of drilling into him with her eyes
like how dare you asked me this question? And it
came across on TV and she did not have that.
She was absent of that last night.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Do you find yourself because of what we do and
how you know, our job in interviewing people is also
we read boy language and eye contact and do you
find because we come from that perspective that we tend
to do that and we're watching. Yes, So it's like
with her, like you sit in the past, you may
have come off as condescending or you know whatever her
inner booth Lester Holt, I feel like maybe there's been
some work with her and her team. Oh yeah, but
(06:49):
the boot camp or yeah, there's some media coaching, some
boot camping happening. Where I noticed it the most in
watching was where she was talking about the nieces, the
bacon and all that stuff, and that shift to Biden.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
It was like she was smiling.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Oh, I was in the kitchen making pancakes and the
maniece's wanted more bacon, and then Biden called and then
that tone shift and that softening. I was like, ooh, yeah,
someone's been studying. That was almost masterful.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
We'll play that, Yes, we'll play that for you when
we come back. Also, why did CNN tease us with
word salads? She had like two word salad moments that
she's had in the past where she just says things
without saying anything, And there were a couple moments of that,
but that wasn't the takeaway. But those were the clips
that they released initially, So we'll talk about that as well.
Speaker 6 (07:36):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on Demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Coming up in the next hour, we will get to
the story of the missing elderly couple from the Olive
Dell nudist ranch. This is near Redlands. They now say
that there has been an arrest in the case. A
neighbor of this couple Dan and Stephanie. They believe that
the bodies are in his home. They're going to bring
(08:04):
in canines and search crews today to go through his
home or compound or whatever. The fact that they believe
the bodies are in his home but not have not
found them yet leads me to believe that it's a
sprawling property. So we'll get the latest on that. Leila
Mohammed is in today and we were talking about Kamala
(08:25):
Harrison the interview and you said something, Leila before the break,
you said, do you think that we look for body
language and we're hyper focused to see how people are
coming off because of what we do. And I think
that the reason that I do that, especially when a
politician is being interviewed, is because we don't know who
these people are. Yeah, you never will fully know, No,
(08:45):
you don't. So you have to read the cues because
they're saying whatever is advantageous to them in their career, right,
or what they want you to think that they believe.
So you have to kind of pick up on those
nonverbal cues to get a sense of who they are.
You also, before the break that she talked about the
Biden phone call. This was the phone call when he
told Kamala Harris that he was leaving the ticket.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
When he called you and said he was pulling out
of the race, what was that like And.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Did he offer to endorse you right away or did
you ask for it?
Speaker 5 (09:17):
Was it was a Sunday, So here, I'll give you
a little too much information.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Go for it.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
There's no such thing as a vice president.
Speaker 5 (09:26):
My family was staying with us and including my baby nieces,
and we had just had pancakes and you know, Auntie,
can I have more bacon?
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Yes, I'll make you more bacon.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
And then we were gonna sit We were sitting down
to do a puzzle and the phone rang and it
was Joe Biden and he told me what he had
decided to do. And I asked him, are you sure?
And he said, yeah, yes, And that's how I learned
(10:04):
about it.
Speaker 4 (10:05):
And what about the endorsement? Did you ask for it?
Speaker 5 (10:09):
And he was very clear that he was gonna support men.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Again, this is all very much by design. Kamala Harris
did not get to where she is by not being
super focused and strategic when it comes to things that
she says, or things or her positions or.
Speaker 5 (10:24):
What have you.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Yeah, She has had issues in the past with misstepping
and word salads, but the whole anti Can I have
more bacon? I mean Trump made a big thing out
of bacon at one of his rallies recently. You can't
even buy bacon, like he's ever shopped for bacon. That
was by design. She's sitting there going, look, look, I'm
a childless woman, but I'm an antie and I make
(10:46):
bacon and I buy and I do puzzles. My grandmother
still loves a good puzzle. I do too.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Yeah, it's been a long time. But when she said
that was like, I should probably play a puzzle.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Advertising, I was like, I should probably eat some more
bac But that was all by design, and it was
it was just very strategic. Yes, And the way that
she softened when she mentioned the Biden phone call also
by design. But I bought it. It worked. She also
is appealing to Republicans. When she talked about wanting a
(11:19):
Republican member of her cabinet, had a lot.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
Of Republican speakers at the convention. Will you appoint the
Republican to your cabinet?
Speaker 5 (11:26):
Yes, I would, no one in particular mine. I we
got sixty eight days to go with this election. So
I'm not putting the car before the horse, but I would.
I think I think it's really important. I have spent
my career inviting diversity of opinion. I think it's important
to have people at the table and when some of
(11:47):
the most important decisions are being made that have different views,
different experiences. And I think it would be to the
benefit of the American public to have a member of
my cabinet who was a Republican.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Freshing.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
Yeah, listen, if you're speaking about how you want to
bring people together and that we need to all be
on the same page for the betterment of our country.
You know, politicians always give this speech somewhere along the
way paraphrasing here, you got to put the action into play.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
So if you believe that, then put a Republican in
the cabinet.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
I don't think that we're going to hear Donald Trump
say that he'll put a Democrat in his cabinet.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
That's just not going to happen. No, And I mean
that's what a lot of people have been talking about
with the Project twenty twenty five situation of the organizers
of that, the writers of that, and and Trump said,
I have have nothing to do with it, but there's
this shadow narrative that those are going to be his
cabinet members, the people that put forth that agenda. Some
(12:43):
of the conservative people are hitting hard on Tim Walls
this morning. Tim Walls, by the way, he looked like
Captain Phillips. What was he even doing there? I don't like,
he didn't even he topic seven words and he was
just sat there like a prisoner.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Maybe that was strategic to just just show them as
a united front, you know, yeah, But it just feel
like sometimes he softens, maybe her in the areas that
people don't really feel like. Maybe she's relatable in certain points.
He's like the coach, the guy that we all know
that kind of like the coach next door.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
This is just my take on it. Looking at it,
like maybe his whole point was just to show a
unit at front. He did not say much, but when
he spoke about family, we can tell deeply that he
loves his family and cares about his family.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
I think was a misstep and he's getting a lot
of heat for it. Today. When he addressed the campaign
materials that was talking about video that talking about guns
and keeping guns out of schools and so you know,
there's fewer school shootings and things like that. And he
said that the weapons of war, the weapons I carried,
should stay at war, and which he did not. He
(13:44):
did not carry weapons of war, and Dana Bash pushed
him on it. Cut seven, Tony.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
I want to ask you a question about how you've
described your service in the National Guard. You said that
you carried weapons in war, but you have never deployed
actually in a war zone. A campaign official said that
you misspoke, did you well?
Speaker 7 (14:05):
First of all, I'm incredibly proud I've done twenty four
years of wearing the uniform of this country. Equally proud
of my service in a public school classroom, whether it's
Congress or the governor. My record speaks for itself, but
I think people are coming to it to know me.
I speak like they do, I speak candidly, I wear
my emotions on my sleeves, and I speak especially passionately
(14:26):
about our children being shot in schools and around guns.
So I think people know me, they know who I am,
they know where my heart is. And again, my record
has been out there for over forty years to speak
for itself.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
And the idea that you said that you were in war.
Did you miss speak? As the campaign has said.
Speaker 7 (14:46):
I said we were talking about in this case, this
was after school shooting the ideas of carrying these weapons
of war and my wife the English could turn. My
grammar's not always correct. But again, if it's not this,
it's an attack on my children for showing love for me,
or it's an attack on my dog, I'm not going
to do that. And the one thing I'll never do
is I'll never demean another member's service in any way.
I never have, uh and I never will.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
I thought that was kind of dodgy of him, and
then using the children and the dog and those I mean,
come on, well he redirected again, That's that's part of
the training. I just say, you screwed up. Just say
I I I A said he misspoke, right, Yeah, that's
not grammar. Grammar is not factual, heirs.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Grammar is not that you are one per correct, and
he misspoke. He should have just owned that and kept
it moving.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Did he did? He serve? Yes?
Speaker 2 (15:30):
And that's commendable, right it is. I mean, I'm you
know how I feel about the military.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
I'm absolutely child.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
My dad also served twenty four years, so he served.
It is what it is. He misspoke. He should own
up to that. We're also splitting hairs of whether or
not his wife had IVF or some other form of treatment.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Personally, I don't care. I don't. I don't. It's just
we have other bigger fish to frag Get the grocery
prices down.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Yeah, we have a We have a lot of everyday
things we need to worry about.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Coming up next, speaking of the military, Arlington Gate continues. Now,
we're hearing from a gold Star family that is not
pleased with Trump's outing there and the altercation from one
of the campaign's staff members and a cemetery employee. Will
get into that when we return. Gary and Channon will continue.
Leila is here and.
Speaker 6 (16:12):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Did you hear this horrible story out of New Jersey?
Oh my goodness. Columbus Blue Jackets hockey star Johnny Goodrow
was killed in a bicycle accident last night in New Jersey,
around his hometown. His brother was also killed in this accident.
They were struck by a drunk driver in a jeep Cherokee.
(16:37):
The two were set to be groomsmen in their sister
Katie's wedding today.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
So Katie lost her brothers, yes, right in the family,
not just Katie right, and then this is supposed to
be the happiest day of her life.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Is she going to even go find I was gonna say, no,
you don't have the wedding, and then do you even
have the wet Like, when do you recover from that
and the guilt you would feel for them being because
of it your wedding. I mean, it's horrible that these
things happen, right, and they're horrible. The reason we're hearing
about it is because he's a hockey star. But still
it just rips your heart out when you hear things
(17:11):
like that.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Breaks my heart for that family. But yeah, how do
you even do you postpone for a year or six months?
Speaker 1 (17:17):
I don't even know how. I don't know, I don't know.
There's no playbooks for that about that right now?
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Yeah. New survey shows the use of cannabis among young
adults is at historically high levels. University of Michigan has
released its annual study called Monitoring the Future at track
substance use trends among adults in the country shows about
forty two percent of adults ages nineteen to thirty or
reported using cannabis, with about ten percent using it every day.
(17:45):
For the first time. In the survey, more women reported
using cannabis than men. Interesting, they're not drinking, they're just
using the gummies and things.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Maybe I think maybe the gummies. Did you hear about
the American who's going to go marry the Norwegian king's
eldest child.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
No?
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Oh, yeah, the Princess Martha Louise is marrying this self
professed shaman tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Oh, I'd watch that movie. I'm like, are we gonna
televise it? No, we're not. We don't care.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
But you know when Americans go go marry royalty, I
get a little excited.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
It is fun. Huh, it's like a dream.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
It's like Megan took my life and didn't stay over
there for our own reasons.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
It's fine, it's a fair tale y, But I just
I'm like, man, are.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
There any eligible prince or king bachelor's left in this world?
Speaker 1 (18:30):
We could probably figure that out.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
Not one who's struggling or they don't really have like
an empire or staff, Like, find me one who has
the whole.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Here's the thing with men.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
When they're raised.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
With money, they come with a whole set of issues,
a sole set of problems. Most when you have a
spoiled boy, he doesn't always translate to a stable man.
I kind of keep that. They kind of keep that
spoiled thing. All right. Now, I'm gonna get in trouble
with men. Okay, whatever, it's fine. I have You're back.
(19:08):
We're sitting here. We're two child with cat ladies. You're fine,
We're fine. Okay. So, families of American service members who
were killed during the withdrawal from Afghanistan have revealed that
they did give approval for photos and videos to be
taken at Arlington Cemetery on Monday. This is after a
(19:30):
Green Beret service member. His family spoke out and said, hey,
we didn't give permission for Trump to use our son's
grave in the campaign materials. He died by suicide after
eight tours. It's not okay. So now the families that
did give permission are speaking up. But this is not
(19:51):
going away. May This is stayed in the headlines that
he went there. He was supposed to be honoring these
service members, thirteen who were killed and he turned around
and used it as campaign materials, which always leaves a
bad taste in my mouth. It's like, if you're going
to do something good, just go do the good thing.
You don't have to like get credit for it or
take a victory lap. Just go do the good thing.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
But I think the families who invited him, the three
in particular, who I don't think they cared that that
was part of a campaign thing because they wanted him
there because he knew of their son's stories. But the
other families who were saying like, hey, I didn't give
you permission to you know, my son's grave was in
the background, and that's part of your campaignents here. I
understand where they're coming from too, But as a former
president and one who's still running, you know, campaigns to
(20:36):
be president again, you should just know that this that
this is like sort of a sacred area, right like
this is these are people who've served, who've lost their
lives and representing and defending our country or maybe after that,
and we just respect Arlington.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Yeah, you know, the altercation or the alleged altercation from
one of his staff members and somebody who worked at
the cemetery, I don't care about that. I care about
what the military families think. And as a voter, I
care that you go do something for for just doing good,
you know, and you don't you don't hoore it out.
But that's what politicians do. That's what they do. Just
(21:10):
they all do. Yeah, yeah, I don't know if they're all.
Can I say that word on the radio? Can I
say that? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (21:17):
I just said it twice. I come from the news backgrounds.
I don't know my boundaries.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
The only rule is that I'm not allowed to say
penis before eleven and I spoke that.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
We broke that rule, but only right. The contract was different. Okay, gotcha.
So you say you don't think this is going away anytime.
So now there are not gonna be any charges pressed
about the shoving and the pushing.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
But because she said or the whoever, the person who
works at the cemetery says that they were afraid of
retribution from the Trump people. Oh yeah, I do remember that. Yeah,
we've got a good old fashioned terror in the skies,
childless cat lady. Addition, also a guy who loses his temper.
(21:57):
You're for lost your temper at an airline counter.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
I've allowed my last name is mohammed. Oh yeah, I
don't act up in the airport.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
I learned that smart.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Yea, look at your ba I'm not being funny, I'm
dead serious.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Oh yeah, you know.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Right after and listen right after nine to eleven, when everything,
you know, the restrict the rules were tightened and the
security measures were heightened.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
I'm like, okay, it is what it is.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
I get it. I was always selected. You've been pre
selected for like the additional screen. But I travel on
flying if now, like, I'm never selected for anything. I
just go through you know, pre check whatever, global entry.
Nobody bothers me now, but I would. I'm not a
person who's going to act out on a plane or
at a counter because I already know what it is, right,
I won't be able.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
To fight yet. I've seen people, so I'm not that person.
Yeah that's good. I've seen people lose their minds, like
a toddler and a grocery store type tantrum.
Speaker 6 (22:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
I don't mind when the toddler does it well for
like five seconds, but I do mind when it's a
grown up. And now those videos bad look circulate people
having meltdowns. What's the one recently the guy's yelling at
the flight of the gate agent and she wouldn't let
him on his flight because he got there, I guess
be after the ten minute mark where they closed the gate,
and he's like, he says something about her hair, like
I think he liked her hair, sola whatever, and they're like,
(23:06):
we want to see her hair. You know, we can't
see her in the video. But it's like, what's happening.
They're crying, They're melting down. It's affecting their jobs. It's
you know, starting to boil your your son. Oh this
is worth These These were all spoilt men. I've seen
women have melt down.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
I have to usually more women than men. All Right,
we'll do tear in the guys when we come back.
Gary and Shannon will continue. Laila Mohammed is in.
Speaker 6 (23:27):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty tony.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Do you know where the Terror in the sky's button is? Yes, awesome,
let's do that.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Roger, get off my plane.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Roderick Rogers's octor, Victor, I haven't had put these munkey
pipe snakes on this money to private.
Speaker 6 (23:52):
It's Gary and Shannon's Terror in the skies on KFI.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
I apologize for the garlic bagel that I just ate.
I didn't realize that was garlic. I thought it was
like sesame seeds or something. Well, and now all I
smell is just my my garlic breath and it's not great.
I can't smell it. But Eric did not warn you
that it was scarlet.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
He says, Oh, there's cream, cheese and bag and I
can't eat cheese right now, which makes me sad, or really.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Bagels I've been having. I've been cutting back on my
recreational cheese, just cheese for the sake of having cheese,
and that's why I attacked that bagel and cream cheese.
I think because I've been cutting it out.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
I'm doing no cheese for the next several I'm doing
this this whole seventy five hard, playing with my sister,
and we've seen some results.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
It's great.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
But I took dairy. You can kind of choose what
you want to remove from your diet in addition to
like you no alcohol and you know whatever, I'm doing
no dairy as one of my things because I love
I can sit down and watch a good movie with
the plate of just random cheese, olives and crackers.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
And now wait, let me show you the cheese plate
that I put down. You put grapes on there too.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
I love a little grape, my little homemade charcuti, a
little grapes and cheese and olives.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
I was on the charter flight for the Chargers coming
back from Dallas. Fancy you are, so, I'm so fancy.
And this was my cheese plate that the flight at
Tenant made. Do you like dinner? She's like string, Oh yeah,
it's all the cheeses, Colby cheese. It's a pepper pepper cheet,
(25:18):
string cheese, all the crackers. But she says, do you
want We've got chicken strogan off, We've got a fish dish,
We've got something else I forget, like carne a sot
or something. And I was like, yeah, no, I'm good.
And then she's like, do you want some cheese? And
it's like I would love some cheese. So she brought
me that massive plate of cheese. Anyway, okay, speaking of
(25:39):
tear in the skuys, not just me and my cheese plate.
Two airline passengers who locked a stranger's crying grandchild in
a plain restroom have caused outrage in China. It is
a heated online debate now on how to handle upset
children in public spaces. This went viral after one of
(26:01):
the two women involved posted a video on Chinese social media.
It showed them inside a locked lavatory with this crying girl,
who appeared to be about a year old. Woman sitting
on the toilet tells the baby, we won't let you
out until you stop crying.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
I don't think the baby understood. The child is very small,
but they say that, you know.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
One of the flight.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Attendants said, listen, this tantrum was so disruptive that passengers
were using tissue to block their ears, while others had
to move to the back of the plane to escape
the noise.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
It was crying NonStop for three hours. Oh that's rough.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
And the child was traveling with grandparents versus you know,
like mom and death. I wonder if there was also
this separation anxiety. Listen, kids on a plane. That's already
hard for a lot of children. Their ears are popping
that I really know how to deal with the fact that,
you know, we're change in elevation and it's it's weird.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
I get it.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
I'm under the school of thought that whatever helps them sleep,
knock them out and let them sleep for the three hours.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
I don't know if this is racist, but I have
a feeling that people in China don't play when it
comes to disciplining their children. I think it's safe to
say that, but you should. You started with I don't
know if this is racist. I'm like, oh, lord, and
then I kept going, I know that's awful. No, you know,
like the tiger mom thing of just like expecting a
lot out of your.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
Your children, or just community parenting, like we don't tolerate this.
You know, back in the day when we were younger
and a neighbor could reprimand you and then call your
mom and say, hey, Shannon was over here doing this
and I checked her about that, and I'm letting you
know your child was doing this. That doesn't happen today.
There's no community parenting, and maybe this is you know,
still part of the culture. They can community parent say
your child is out of order, the child is screaming
(27:39):
NonStop for three hours, and now locking the kid in
the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
You know, I don't know, I wouldn't do that. Why
did community parenting go away? I don't just people getting
to an insular or weird about raising.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Their kids, don't know our neighbors anymore. Yeah, it's that
we used to know. I mean, we knew our neighbors.
We knew their parents, They knew my parents. We didn't
have cell phones, they had each other's phone numbers. Somebody
could walk you home to your mom and dad and
say your child was acting out in my neighborhood and
I'm bringing your kid home. And my parents weren't offended.
They would didn't reprimand me too. We were allowed to
(28:15):
be reprimanded by a neighbor's parents.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
My parents' neighbors for the most part, who were there
when I grew up, have died and their kids live
in the homes now for the most part. But when
I was an adult, I remember feeling a little bit
of shame when I saw some of them because I
was a little hell raiser teenager that you know, drove
too fast and the cul de sac and the whole bit,
(28:39):
and they would just you know, sternly look at me,
or they yell at me community parentings. And then when
I became an adult and they were still alive, and
I'd see them living my you know, walking with the
lord life like I'm not a hell raiser anymore, but
just feeling that embarrassment of they knew me when I
was seventeen and awful. But yeah, it is. It is
a weird thing. I missed those days. All right, good morning,
(29:03):
thanks for stopping. Bye, we're live. Do you know who
that is? That's the new president of the company. Come
on in, it's our new boss. And they unlocked the door.
Sometimes they allow me to fill in. Are you listening?
Like a raise, I'll send.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
You my number, okay, just just but I'm part time,
so you probably don't care.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
She's talking to like he's a rando in the hall,
like we're on the air. We're on the air, Okay,
you can I.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Say this to you, though, I commend the fact that
did you notice the parking garage is emptdse. Folks don't
work around here, maybe like once a week. But the
fact that you're.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Here on a Friday before the holiday is just amazing.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
No, I'm serious, that's good to be here, right, but
it's you, like, you don't have to be here.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Why are you here? No, it's a holiday weekend. The
captain's got to be on the ship.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
Two of this.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
No one else would would care. They'll just let the
ship go down and they'll say, why don't y'all.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
Keep it afloat. Well, good to see you, nice to meet,
don't fire me, nice.
Speaker 5 (30:12):
Doll.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
That's why I woke up this morning. That was great.
It seems so cool. So he's just walking around waving,
I know, and he's always here on days when nobody
else is here. Well, no one care. Most days. I've
seen some people once a week. Ever, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursdays,
those are the strong days. Well, they stopped by for
like two hours.
Speaker 5 (30:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
Oh, Chris Little comes in from about one to three.
I wasn't gonna call anyone out, but nobody cares because
they only want him to be here from one to three. Chris,
Chris knows. I love him.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
He's kind of I've kind of saught it when it
comes to Chris over the years.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Had five years. I haven't too, I have two or
I did. I did a long time ago. I softened.
So there was a man trying to check in for
his American Airlines flight to Miami. His ticket wasn't working,
and an employee told him he and be able to
board the flight. Video, of course, captures everything these days,
so he can be seen going through his luggage, taking
(31:07):
out a hammer and smashing computer screens on the counter
at the airline, Sir, what did you think was going
to happen?
Speaker 2 (31:15):
You're gonna be banned from the flight, the airline, everything else.
My thing is, sometimes these these tantrums last too long.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Well, a hammer is too far out of there.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
I've seen like fights in the airport on these videos
online and never in person, thankfully, or people yelling and
having these rants and it goes.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
On way too long.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
I'm like, how long does it take security to get
here when you have cameras all over the airport everywhere
but the bathroom, like you see everything in the airport,
and it just goes on forever.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
It's true, all right? Coming up and next we will
hook up with Michael Monks from KFI News. He is
covering the Brianna cup for murder trial. This was the
young girl who was working in the furniture store and
because we have no law and order in La County,
guy comes in and stabs her to death. It's heartbreaking
listening to her parents. Yesterday Phil Schuman was playing some
(32:05):
of that audio was really hard to get through. We'll
get an update on where that trial's going when we
come back to Gary and Shannon. You've been listening to
