Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to kf
I AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio APT.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
We've got swamp watch.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
Swamp is horrible.
Speaker 4 (00:11):
The government doesn't work.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Man make.
Speaker 4 (00:14):
It's like a reality TV show, A bad noos.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Always a pleasure to be anywhere from Washington, d C. Hey, Joe.
Speaker 5 (00:22):
A town hall too, clearly built on a swamp in
so many ways.
Speaker 4 (00:26):
Still a swamp. A watch make, he.
Speaker 6 (00:29):
Said, drained the swamp.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
I said, oh, that's so hope keep you know the
thing well.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Trump escalated his personal attacks on Kamala Harris yesterday by
repeating an insult so that she was mentally impaired.
Speaker 7 (00:43):
Joe Biden became mentally impaired. Kamala was born that way, she.
Speaker 8 (00:51):
Was born out.
Speaker 7 (01:01):
And if you think about it, only a mentally disabled
person could have allowed this to happen to our country.
Anybody would know this.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
She's talking. He's talking specifically about immigration.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
I believe Colin Yost on Senel is a Yoster or
Jost Jost who's your chip Yost from LS Anyway, he said,
which is odd that he said that, because that means
he lost to a mentally impaired person in the way.
Speaker 9 (01:32):
Well, that was one of the things that he had
said over the weekend. He also talked about the potential
for there to be a very violent day. He was
referring to the increase in crime and suggested that we
should unleash law enforcement to fight back and fight for
our communities.
Speaker 6 (01:51):
Now, if you had one really violent day, like a
guy like Mike Kelly, put him in charge. Congressman Kelly
put him in charge for one day. Mike, would you say,
you're right here, he's a great Congressman. Would you say,
Mike that if if you were in charge, you would say, oh, please,
don't touch them, don't touch them, let them rob your store.
(02:13):
Let all these stores go out of business, right, they
don't pay rent. That did the city to the whole.
It's a chain of events. It's so bad.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
One rough hour, and.
Speaker 6 (02:23):
I mean real rough, the word will get out and
it will end immediately, end immediately. You know, it'll end immediately.
Speaker 10 (02:34):
Now.
Speaker 9 (02:34):
Everybody was talking about it over the weekend, suggesting that
he was trying to institute the basically the script of
the movie The Purge, or that whole series of movies
where everything is legal for twenty four hours, like there's
no I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
What hearts makes sense out of an excellent point.
Speaker 9 (02:59):
The present form President, by the way, is in Valdosta, Georgia.
He's talking with hurricane survivors and those cleaning up.
Speaker 6 (03:06):
Which so many people weren't so badly hurt and in
many cases sadly no longer with us. We love you,
We'll love everyone everyone, I mean to be honest. We
love everyone, and we'll be back and we'll be back
again soon. We'll continue to help until you're bigger, I say, bigger, better,
(03:29):
stronger than ever before. But again, you can't ever discount
the fact that people are lost. A lot of people
have been lost in this terrible this terrible storm, this
terrible hurricane.
Speaker 7 (03:41):
What was it?
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Go ahead, go ahead?
Speaker 9 (03:43):
I was just gonna say that one of the things
that's missing from this discussion about the response to Hurricane Helena, Helene, sorry,
and the federal government's involvement, government in general, involvement in
terms of recovering from something like this, is that a
lot of times government gets in the way. There was
(04:05):
a point that Rona Santis actually made this morning, which
I thought was good. He was standing in an area
that had been hard hit by the storm when it
made landfall, and he discussed the problems with government swooping
in after an event like this and pretending that government
is the way it's all going to be fixed when
(04:26):
so many of the time, so much of the work
that has to be done, and so many of the
stories that we hear are just people picking up for neighbors. Yeah,
that's it, helping their name, making sure that that guy's okay,
that they have food, that their dogs are taking.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Care of them.
Speaker 9 (04:40):
Baddy downtown, it's not the big daddy downtown. He also
pointed out that small businesses are going to be the
engine that restarts first. So one of the things that
he talked about doing specifically in the state of Florida,
government wise, is removing a bunch of these regulations when
it comes to small restaurants, for example, and food trucks
(05:02):
and things like that, so that they can continue making
money for their business and providing food and services to
the people who live in the areas that are hardest hit.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
You have bureaucracy, and so the bureaucracy was saying, well,
we don't know, that's not the way, dude, and my
message is I don't have time for bureaucracy. We don't
have time for red tape. So we are here to
announce that I directed the Department of Business and Professional
Regulation to issue an emergency order so that businesses like
(05:36):
Roy's that were devastated in Hurricane Helene and want to
be creative can stay in business.
Speaker 9 (05:42):
And he talked about it a specifically this small restaurant,
this Roy's place that he was talking about.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
I mean, it was a it was a nice wonder
if that guy has a bounce back in him.
Speaker 9 (05:53):
Ron de Santis, Yeah, not if Donald Trump's on the scene.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
No, I need after and the frusher.
Speaker 9 (05:58):
He's young and I that was what was interesting a
couple of weeks ago when we were talking about some
Republicans who believe that the best thing to happen to
the party, the Republican Party, would be a Donald Trump
loss in November, because then you do have I don't
want to say second tier, because I don't want to
(06:18):
diminish their automatic win.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Probably in twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 9 (06:23):
Well, there's that definitely, But think about all of the
other people who then had voices that were squashed by
Donald Trump.
Speaker 10 (06:30):
Right.
Speaker 9 (06:30):
I mean, whether it's Nicky Haley or Ron DeSantis or
any number of other Republicans who are not the personality
of Donald Trump, but a lot of the politics of
Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
I was reading a review of hr McMaster's memoir about
serving in the Trump administration, At War with Ourselves, and
he talked about how Donald Trump does not care about
the Republican Party and that world leaders, whether it be
Poof or ishijin Ping or air to one, that they
(07:04):
know that flattery is the way to get Trump to
maybe not be on their side, but say things that
are kind to them. But that is the way into
the Trump world is to flatter him. And in fact,
McMaster recounts this anecdote of him walking into the Oval
office and Donald Trump has like a print out of
(07:25):
a New York Post article where Putin says it denigrates
the whole political landscape, all the politicians in the United States,
how it's a broken system and they're all crooked and
blah blah blah, but that Trump is a good guy
or something to that effect. And Trump was like scrawling
this note of thanks with a sharpie, and it's like
send this to the Kremlin and McMaster's like, yeah, I
(07:48):
did not send that to the Kremlin, but that he
gets so into those compliments everyone else be damned right.
It's all about number one, and it's just like, who
cares that putin? Just put down all of the people
that you need to work with to get things done.
Speaker 9 (08:04):
In this country. As long as he said the right
thing to the right guy. Yes, the audience have won there.
All right, when we come back, we'll talk a little
bit more about what Kamala Harris has been up to
all weekend and tomorrow night's debate between Jade Vance and
Tim Walls. That's all coming up on Swamp Watch and
your Chance at a thousand bucks around.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
That's exciting and the Jeopardy question, what a doozy this
one is.
Speaker 8 (08:29):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 9 (08:35):
Kamala Harris has said she does disagree with Joe Biden,
specifically when it comes to marijuana. She did an interview
on the sports and culture podcast called All the Smoke.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
She won't sit down.
Speaker 9 (08:55):
With a journalist who has not endorsed her for president,
but she'll sit down with a podcast called.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
All the Smoke.
Speaker 9 (09:07):
She reaffirmed her support for legalizing marijuana. She said, I
just feel strongly people should not be going to jail
for smoking weed, and we know historically what that has
meant and who has gone to jail, she said. She
added supporting marijuana legalization is not a new position. I
have felt for a long time that we need to
legalize it.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
See that's the kind of these are the kind of
voters that may not turn out, you know what I mean, Like,
these are the kind of voters I think that she
needs to connect with to get them to mobilize to
the polls. If she sits down with you know, NBC
or what have you, those are stuck into Democrats who
watch the news who are already going to.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Vote for her.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
But if she gets the people who may be reluctant
to get to the polls, that's smart.
Speaker 9 (09:51):
Are there enough of those independent, non committed voters left
in this cycle for to do any of those types
of interviews? I mean, I'm reiterating what I think you're saying,
which is this is more likely to get somebody to
get off the couch and vote right, even though they're
(10:13):
high as f.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
The Democrats are all going to vote for her she
needs to get the independence she needs to get to
people who normally wouldn't vote, and that could make the difference.
Speaker 9 (10:25):
When former President Trump said that he supports an initiative
to legalize recreational use of marijuana in Florida, her campaign
said that this is blatant pandering. Hold on a second,
so Trump can say he supports an initiative to legalize
recreational pot and it's blatant pandering. She says she wants
(10:47):
to go further to legalize marijuana, and it's not blatant pandering.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
She has not.
Speaker 9 (10:53):
Really mentioned a whole lot of marijuana policy since she
launched her campaign. There's no reference to it on her
campaign website. She has avoided answering specific questions about her
position as recently as last week.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Trump has openly admitted to hating overtime. He was in Erie, Pennsylvania,
and he says, I shouldn't say this.
Speaker 8 (11:17):
I know I know a lot about it.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Yes, I know a lot about overtime.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
I'd hated to give overtime.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
I hated it.
Speaker 6 (11:26):
I'd get other people. I shouldn't say this, but I
get other people, and I wouldn't say I hated This
is going to lead to a lot more. I think
it's going to be economically positive. But I'm not even
doing it for that reason. I'm doing it because, like
the no text on overtime, it's something so good.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
So she her campaign seized on this immediately. Donald Trump
is finally opening up to it. He's built an entire
career unscrewing over workers, and it's exactly what he did
in the White House and what he plans to do
in a second term.
Speaker 9 (11:55):
As we get closer to this, a lot we're what
thirty days, thirty five, four days as we get closer
to this. Tomorrow is October. Everybody's worried about there being
some sort of October surprise. Hillary Clinton's the latest to
suggest that there's going to be something. Elon Musk has
(12:16):
said that he would watch out for one. I think
was the term that he used. There's a concern that
Jack Smith, the Special Council's report on the January sixth
trial and hearing a court case, I should say that
that information was going to come out, she said. She,
being former Secretary of State, Clinton warned that this October
(12:39):
surprise quote, there will be concerted efforts to distort and pervert.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
Kamala Harris, she's talking about that.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
She said, the Pizzagate thing that Hillary Clinton was hit
with wasn't that October her October surprise where Democrats were
using this pizza parlor and child trafficking out of the
basement of it.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
And it was so ridiculous. Remember that from twenty six sixty.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
Oh, I remember it.
Speaker 9 (13:04):
But the bigger, the bigger surprise was Anthony Wiener's laptop, right,
I mean, that was the that was an actual thing.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
He's trying to take away any legitimacy that may come
from an October surprise against Kamala.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Herm the new Anthony Wiener laptop.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
Exactly move away from the classified documents and move to
the radical they're eating the children, or they're eating the animals,
and they're making the geese watch.
Speaker 9 (13:33):
She says, it was a huge story speaking of pizzagate,
and it got one young man in North Carolina to
get in his car with his assault rival assault rifle
and drove up to liberate these non existent children and
shoot up a pizzeria in Washington, DC. And she said,
this is dangerous stuff. It starts online, often on the
dark Web, and it migrates it's picked up by the
(13:54):
pro Trump media, It's then reported on by everybody else,
which makes sure it has about one hundred percent coverage,
and then people believe it. So, she says, the digital
airwaves are going to be filled with misinformation that can
take a life, take on a life of its own.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
What are we doing there, Let's do hurricane stuff.
Speaker 9 (14:14):
We've got to bring back some of the information about
what's going on in the aftermath of Hurricane Helen.
Speaker 4 (14:19):
Some areas absolutely decimated.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
We have no idea about exactly how big the devastation
is right now, and people are trapped in their homes.
They've got no food, no water, no yeah, no running water,
they've got no power. Did you imagine being holed up
with your kids like that?
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Oh my goodness.
Speaker 8 (14:37):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
How did y'all do Gas Fantasy four play? How's a
tough slate of games, wasn't it?
Speaker 4 (14:48):
I did very awful?
Speaker 2 (14:49):
You did it very awful.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
I did it very awful.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
I'm very sorry.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
Hey, look at that.
Speaker 9 (14:53):
There's people who work here, yo. Speaking of which, I
saw Krozer in the hallway already. You see him very
often at all.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
It's your early. Very nice to see you always, nice
to see closure.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
That's very nice.
Speaker 9 (15:05):
Yes, speaking of we did mention that the Monday night
football header Tennessee at Miami is the first game. Seattle
at Detroit is the second game tonight. Angels ended their
regular season without so much as a whimper and ate
nothing lost to the Rangers. The Angels had a franchise
worst season sixty three and ninety nine.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
They were worse than the White Sox.
Speaker 9 (15:27):
No for the franchise, it was the worst record for
the Angels. Dodgers ended their regular season a two to
one win against the lowly Rockies. The Dodgers and of
course with the National League West title on ninety eight
to sixty four record. First round by their first game
of the NLDS will be Saturday. They will not know
who they play, of course, until later this week and
(15:47):
the wildcard games are figured out.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
What we knew it was going to be brutal, and
it turns out it was unsurvivable. As Helene smashed into
Florida and the Gulf coast there and the Carolinas at
least one hundred dead and we don't even know the
scope of the devastation right now. The roads have been
washed out in many places, just broken up, washed out.
(16:11):
People are trapped in their homes with no way of
getting emergency services in.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
It is dire straits out there.
Speaker 9 (16:17):
Yeah, the death toll you mentioned over one hundred, we
saw one hundred and ten. I have heard a couple
of different places that it's up over one hundred and
twenty already, and the unfortunate part is it will continue
to go up. One of the issues is communication, and
as we heard from one of the Fox Weather reporters
that was out in western North Carolina. His name is
(16:39):
Robert Ray. He said, cell phones have been an issue
for the for many of those people. Sell service, I
should say so that even when it's coming in and out,
unless you can have a dedicated line to contact the
people that you need to be in contact with, they're
still considered missing or unaccounted for.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
At this point, the governor in North Carolina has activated
more than five hundred soldiers and airmen from the National Guard,
including more than two hundred vehicles and aircraft. The aircraft
being key because as we mentioned, you know, with the
roads unpassable, they're going to have to hoist emergency assets
and use high water response vehicles as well.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
And they're still in a life saving mode.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
They're still trying to save lives here because there are
people in peril.
Speaker 9 (17:31):
The President did speak earlier today from the White House
and said it's they'll be there.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
They the federal government will be there as long as
it takes.
Speaker 5 (17:38):
As President, I've seen firsthand the devastating toll so disasters
like this take on families and communities. I went on
the ground many disasters area since I've been president. Man,
I've heard dozens of stories from survivors about how it
feels to be left with nothing, not even knowing where
(17:59):
when they're back on track. I'm here to tell every
single survivor and these impacted areas that we will be
there with you as long as it takes.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
I seek you yourself.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Excuse me, you want to cough again.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
They said it's going to be one of the costliest
storms in US history.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (18:17):
ACU Weather increased its estimate of the total damage and
economic loss from Hurricane Helene to between one hundred and
forty five and one hundred and sixty billion dollars. One
of the reasons that it would be the most costly
or one of the most costliest storms in the history
of the United States is because of that storm surge.
We saw the storm surge in Florida in some places
(18:41):
reach well over ten feet, which is enough to inundate
I mean entire towns where nothing escapes being flooded. Energy
production in the Gulf is recovering. About three percent of
crude oil and one percent of natural gas production in
the Gulf of Mexico is still shut down. They do
obviously shut those things down when the hurricanes roll through,
(19:03):
but they do it all the time. So the good
news is it's able to get back up and running
as quickly as possible.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Three firefighters from San Diego were seriously entered in a
car crash on their way to help out there in
North Carolina. Happen about two forty five local time near
the Texas Louisiana border. They are receiving medical care in Louisiana.
They were taken by air ambulance to Louisiana State University
Hospital in Shreveport.
Speaker 9 (19:29):
These are members of the Fire Department's Urban Search and
Rescue California Task Force eight. We're headed out there to
assist in the efforts from the impacts. Of course, it
includes forty eight people from multiple agencies, does Task Force eight.
The remainder of the team was able to make its
way to Texas. They're waiting further instructions, of course, but
(19:52):
that's a pretty devastating if those guys are not okay,
that's a pretty devastating loss of teammates at least, even
if you can't I mean, even if they're not killed
in this crash, the fact that they wouldn't be part
of the team that you would expecting.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
I was looking for an update on the firefighters that
were in that rollover crash a week ago responding to
the airport fire, and I didn't see an update. Curious
about that, any sort of good news coming out of that.
I think six were seriously injured, eight in that rollover
crash when they were coming back from working that twelve
hour shift.
Speaker 9 (20:27):
The other thing is we mentioned how it is getting
warmer over the next couple of days, some heat advisories
and heat warnings up through Wednesday, because we'll see triple
digits in a lot of places like including here in
the valley. And I mentioned the public safety power shutoffs
as of right now They didn't have any on Edison's website,
but PG and E says that they've been forced to
(20:49):
cut off power in a few places.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
For example, good.
Speaker 10 (20:51):
Morning, Gary and Shannon. Just to update you on the
PG and E outages. My sister and her husband live
up and Ready and they had their power turned off
at nine point thirty this morning. Probably won't be back
on till one o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Have a good day.
Love you guys. Man.
Speaker 9 (21:11):
A lot of this stuff, whether it's these power shut offs,
the hurricanes, the tropical storms, there is such an emphasis
there needs to be such an emphasis on preparing for
that when it happens to you, whether it's expected or not,
whether it's a few days warning in a hurricane, the
(21:31):
sudden earthquake, whatever it is, in terms of making sure
that you have the ability to last through this. The
public safety power shut offs in northern California are all
in areas that have burned before she mentioned they're right
around Reading. There's several right around Reading. There's a few
just east of Chico and that Paradise Megalia area that
we saw the fire burned several years ago, and then
(21:55):
over in Glen County, they've also seen along where the
Mendicine or National Forest is. They've seen plenty of fires
there in the last couple of summers, and some of
those areas have had their power shut off also, So
just to be ready for it, especially when it's going
to be warm and windy.
Speaker 7 (22:11):
Like it is.
Speaker 8 (22:13):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Jamie Lee Curtis was recently asked about the secret to
her forty year marriage to actor for actor Christopher death Guest.
I keep doing that ACTI for Gaviner active for what?
Why am I conflating words?
Speaker 4 (22:32):
You didn't speak very much all weekend until yesterday R
in the game.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Yeah, I I did, and then you sat and read
the paper.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
You got a lot of words jumbled around in that
brain up in there.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Yeah, So I spoke all weekend. I was at a
social event Saturday and the birthday party. Yeah, and then
on the air yesterday. And I'm never bringing in a
newspaper here again because everyone has to say things about it.
Speaker 9 (22:57):
That's the first newspaper that's been brought into this building.
And I would argue eight years's sad. Is that excellent point?
Speaker 1 (23:05):
I just think it's the fact that it's notable that
there's a newspaper in a news day and everybody goes
what Everyone's like, Oh, you're really getting into that, You're
really enjoying that newspaper. It's like, well, that's you're supposed to.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
Read them, read them all right.
Speaker 9 (23:20):
Anyway, you have to explain to the people in the
newsroom that that's like when you print out the internet
and stack it all together.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
I'm so troubled by the fact that everyone's so shocked
there's a newspaper here.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Wow, I'm old, Okay.
Speaker 10 (23:33):
So.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Jamie Lee Curtis has asked about her forty year marriage
to actor Christopher Guest, and she says the key to
this marriage includes patience, perseverance, and a really good.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Dose of hatred.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Hatred, she said, all of a sudden, you literally want
to hate each other, and then the next day it's
a pretty sunny day and the dog does something cute
or your child does something cute, and you look up
at each other and you're like, ah, gosh, and you're
on another track. Relationship experts say it's normal for couples
to experience moments of what feels like genuine hatred. The
(24:08):
difference between couples who last and those who don't can
lie in how they handle their.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Emotions in these moments.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Jane Greer is a marriage and family therapist author of
am I Lying to Myself?
Speaker 2 (24:20):
That looks like a fun freaking read?
Speaker 1 (24:22):
She says, hating the person you love is the most
common thing in the world. We think we're supposed to
love our partner all the time unconditionally, but that's not
the way it works.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
But that is the way it is sold, isn't it.
Speaker 8 (24:36):
I mean.
Speaker 9 (24:39):
The romantic movies, the even the ones that are less romantic,
that are more you know.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
What, sex. Yeah, what do you watching sex movies?
Speaker 9 (24:50):
Well, I'm not saying I do. I'm saying Flow Weekend
speaking forgebra here. But it's just the impression that that's
always going to be the same.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
What is that you're always going to be in love
like that? Oh? I see that there aren't moments of hatred.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
Right, Yeah?
Speaker 9 (25:06):
Because you would never listen if, say, Reese Witherspoon and
Ryan Gosling.
Speaker 4 (25:12):
I'm sure they've done a movie together, have they not?
Speaker 2 (25:14):
I don't think so.
Speaker 9 (25:15):
If they did a romantic comedy service to us, wouldn't
we would, it would be written in a way to
make it seem like they're always going to be in love.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Well, there's always an after they get past the first
covert altercation.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Yeah, yeah, I do think that that is a nice
trait is when you disagree about something or you feel
irksome for whatever reason, and then you snap out of
it pretty quickly.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
That's good. That makes you feel good.
Speaker 9 (25:45):
But what makes you snap out of it? I mean,
is it something as simple or dumb as what she's said. Yeah,
so the dog farted and surprised itself, and we can
laugh at that. And therefore, you know what, honey, I
don't don't hate you.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Well, I feel like hate is being overused in a scenario.
I don't think hate like pure hatred is a part
of the recipe for a long marriage.
Speaker 9 (26:10):
If it is hatred, If it is hatred, maybe there's
something bigger.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
Can be annoyed or di the disagreement irritated.
Speaker 9 (26:17):
Yes, I believe in laundry all over the place, can't
find the hamper.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
I've learned to preemptively strike when it comes to you.
Speaker 9 (26:29):
Hate him first, before he has a chance to be
irritated at you.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
No, no, I but I will say if I'm feeling
a little irritated, I will give a heads up.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
I'm feeling irritated today, so that.
Speaker 9 (26:42):
How come we around here don't also get heads up
like that?
Speaker 4 (26:47):
Can I make a request?
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (26:50):
Okay, you know what, that's fair, You're right, I apologize
for all of the eggshells scattered around. You have to
have an obstacle course routinely the egg.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Broken bottle, piles of urine.
Speaker 4 (27:13):
But you'll give a heads up, and how is it received?
Then he'll know.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
You know, just don't talk to me, or just.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
Per space, or just don't talk about that subject.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
Or things that yeah, probably.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
Or past subjects that have raised.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Years of dealing with crazy.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
So he's getting he's getting used to it by now.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Well, it just knows the pitfalls those where those shells are,
the broken bottles. So how often does your wife get
annoyed with you?
Speaker 4 (27:45):
Many times?
Speaker 2 (27:46):
Really? And how does she? How do you know that?
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Uh?
Speaker 9 (27:51):
Well, it probably manifests itself in different ways. There are
a lot of times where it's just quiet. Yeah, that's
that's never good. That's never healthy. That's especially just because
of who we are. We're just not we're not generally
quiet people. I tend to be more quiet. Yeah, I
(28:13):
have a lot of conversations in my head that never
make it out my mouth.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
I need to learn that.
Speaker 9 (28:19):
Well, I'm not saying that's the best way to do it. Yeah,
I'm just saying that that is a thing. So when
and my kids have picked up on this too, which
I think is strange because I don't see it in myself.
But they'll ask me a question and I will answer
the question, and then they'll ask me the question again,
and I'll be like, I just I just told you,
(28:39):
and they said you didn't say a word.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
Wow, I have this.
Speaker 9 (28:43):
I'm the machination in my brain of I'm developing the
answer to the question that they've asked, and I convinced
myself that I've already answered the question. And they're like,
you didn't say a word. You just went blank and
didn't answer the question.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
That's like biden stuff. Yes, you could go to the doctor.
I should go to the doctor. Well, that's better than
reacting too soon and saying something that could be damaged.
Speaker 9 (29:08):
Which is the reason I do it is because I'm
I want to be careful with that. I want to
be careful with the answer but then when you're too
careful with the answer, then it becomes manufactured. Or you
don't you don't make noise with your mouth hole at all.
That can be a problem. Right, I'm sure other people
have stories like that too, right where you can you
(29:30):
can love somebody, but you're like, I don't want to.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
I don't want to. I don't want to have to
live with that person.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Right now or right now. Yeah, I want to be
alone right now or I want to or people and.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
Hey, if you hate your spouse, let us know, use
the talk back.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
Feature on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
Do not use your name or use your name. I
don't care. You don't need to hate them anyway.
Speaker 9 (29:50):
But do you know anybody who has separated and gotten
back together, like separated, they moved out and everything.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
People that have tried to get back together, separated and
tried to get back together. I don't think I know
of any successful stories of that.
Speaker 9 (30:07):
Yeah, I can't think of any where they're like, you
know what, it's better than it was before.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
I don't know if anybody who has.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Yeah, I don't know. I think that that's like definite
rom com stuff.
Speaker 9 (30:17):
All right, Our four on this Monday. We're gonna talk
late in the show. We're going to talk a lot
about Chris Christophers.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
In this four hours.
Speaker 9 (30:24):
No, we've been here for three, but our fourth is coming. Yes,
all of that. Trending stories wrap up on the Gas
Fantasy four play. Updates on the potential for a port strike. Wait,
if you thought Christmas shopping got bad, it's gonna get
much worse if they go on.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
I just got a text from your wife, but I'm
gonna that's going to be in the cone of silence,
Code of silence.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
No, I'm nervous.
Speaker 9 (30:51):
Yeah, 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 kf
I AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio APT.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
We've got swamp watch.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
Swamp is horrible.
Speaker 4 (00:11):
The government doesn't work.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Man make.
Speaker 4 (00:14):
It's like a reality TV show, A bad noos.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Always a pleasure to be anywhere from Washington, d C. Hey, Joe.
Speaker 5 (00:22):
A town hall too, clearly built on a swamp in
so many ways.
Speaker 4 (00:26):
Still a swamp. A watch make, he.
Speaker 6 (00:29):
Said, drained the swamp.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
I said, oh, that's so hope keep you know the
thing well.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Trump escalated his personal attacks on Kamala Harris yesterday by
repeating an insult so that she was mentally impaired.
Speaker 7 (00:43):
Joe Biden became mentally impaired. Kamala was born that way, she.
Speaker 8 (00:51):
Was born out.
Speaker 7 (01:01):
And if you think about it, only a mentally disabled
person could have allowed this to happen to our country.
Anybody would know this.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
She's talking. He's talking specifically about immigration.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
I believe Colin Yost on Senel is a Yoster or
Jost Jost who's your chip Yost from LS Anyway, he said,
which is odd that he said that, because that means
he lost to a mentally impaired person in the way.
Speaker 9 (01:32):
Well, that was one of the things that he had
said over the weekend. He also talked about the potential
for there to be a very violent day. He was
referring to the increase in crime and suggested that we
should unleash law enforcement to fight back and fight for
our communities.
Speaker 6 (01:51):
Now, if you had one really violent day, like a
guy like Mike Kelly, put him in charge. Congressman Kelly
put him in charge for one day. Mike, would you say,
you're right here, he's a great Congressman. Would you say,
Mike that if if you were in charge, you would say, oh, please,
don't touch them, don't touch them, let them rob your store.
(02:13):
Let all these stores go out of business, right, they
don't pay rent. That did the city to the whole.
It's a chain of events. It's so bad.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
One rough hour, and.
Speaker 6 (02:23):
I mean real rough, the word will get out and
it will end immediately, end immediately. You know, it'll end immediately.
Speaker 10 (02:34):
Now.
Speaker 9 (02:34):
Everybody was talking about it over the weekend, suggesting that
he was trying to institute the basically the script of
the movie The Purge, or that whole series of movies
where everything is legal for twenty four hours, like there's
no I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
What hearts makes sense out of an excellent point.
Speaker 9 (02:59):
The present form President, by the way, is in Valdosta, Georgia.
He's talking with hurricane survivors and those cleaning up.
Speaker 6 (03:06):
Which so many people weren't so badly hurt and in
many cases sadly no longer with us. We love you,
We'll love everyone everyone, I mean to be honest. We
love everyone, and we'll be back and we'll be back
again soon. We'll continue to help until you're bigger, I say, bigger, better,
(03:29):
stronger than ever before. But again, you can't ever discount
the fact that people are lost. A lot of people
have been lost in this terrible this terrible storm, this
terrible hurricane.
Speaker 7 (03:41):
What was it?
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Go ahead, go ahead?
Speaker 9 (03:43):
I was just gonna say that one of the things
that's missing from this discussion about the response to Hurricane Helena, Helene, sorry,
and the federal government's involvement, government in general, involvement in
terms of recovering from something like this, is that a
lot of times government gets in the way. There was
(04:05):
a point that Rona Santis actually made this morning, which
I thought was good. He was standing in an area
that had been hard hit by the storm when it
made landfall, and he discussed the problems with government swooping
in after an event like this and pretending that government
is the way it's all going to be fixed when
(04:26):
so many of the time, so much of the work
that has to be done, and so many of the
stories that we hear are just people picking up for neighbors. Yeah,
that's it, helping their name, making sure that that guy's okay,
that they have food, that their dogs are taking.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Care of them.
Speaker 9 (04:40):
Baddy downtown, it's not the big daddy downtown. He also
pointed out that small businesses are going to be the
engine that restarts first. So one of the things that
he talked about doing specifically in the state of Florida,
government wise, is removing a bunch of these regulations when
it comes to small restaurants, for example, and food trucks
(05:02):
and things like that, so that they can continue making
money for their business and providing food and services to
the people who live in the areas that are hardest hit.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
You have bureaucracy, and so the bureaucracy was saying, well,
we don't know, that's not the way, dude, and my
message is I don't have time for bureaucracy. We don't
have time for red tape. So we are here to
announce that I directed the Department of Business and Professional
Regulation to issue an emergency order so that businesses like
(05:36):
Roy's that were devastated in Hurricane Helene and want to
be creative can stay in business.
Speaker 9 (05:42):
And he talked about it a specifically this small restaurant,
this Roy's place that he was talking about.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
I mean, it was a it was a nice wonder
if that guy has a bounce back in him.
Speaker 9 (05:53):
Ron de Santis, Yeah, not if Donald Trump's on the scene.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
No, I need after and the frusher.
Speaker 9 (05:58):
He's young and I that was what was interesting a
couple of weeks ago when we were talking about some
Republicans who believe that the best thing to happen to
the party, the Republican Party, would be a Donald Trump
loss in November, because then you do have I don't
want to say second tier, because I don't want to
(06:18):
diminish their automatic win.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Probably in twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 9 (06:23):
Well, there's that definitely, But think about all of the
other people who then had voices that were squashed by
Donald Trump.
Speaker 10 (06:30):
Right.
Speaker 9 (06:30):
I mean, whether it's Nicky Haley or Ron DeSantis or
any number of other Republicans who are not the personality
of Donald Trump, but a lot of the politics of
Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
I was reading a review of hr McMaster's memoir about
serving in the Trump administration, At War with Ourselves, and
he talked about how Donald Trump does not care about
the Republican Party and that world leaders, whether it be
Poof or ishijin Ping or air to one, that they
(07:04):
know that flattery is the way to get Trump to
maybe not be on their side, but say things that
are kind to them. But that is the way into
the Trump world is to flatter him. And in fact,
McMaster recounts this anecdote of him walking into the Oval
office and Donald Trump has like a print out of
(07:25):
a New York Post article where Putin says it denigrates
the whole political landscape, all the politicians in the United States,
how it's a broken system and they're all crooked and
blah blah blah, but that Trump is a good guy
or something to that effect. And Trump was like scrawling
this note of thanks with a sharpie, and it's like
send this to the Kremlin and McMaster's like, yeah, I
(07:48):
did not send that to the Kremlin, but that he
gets so into those compliments everyone else be damned right.
It's all about number one, and it's just like, who
cares that putin? Just put down all of the people
that you need to work with to get things done.
Speaker 9 (08:04):
In this country. As long as he said the right
thing to the right guy. Yes, the audience have won there.
All right, when we come back, we'll talk a little
bit more about what Kamala Harris has been up to
all weekend and tomorrow night's debate between Jade Vance and
Tim Walls. That's all coming up on Swamp Watch and
your Chance at a thousand bucks around.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
That's exciting and the Jeopardy question, what a doozy this
one is.
Speaker 8 (08:29):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 9 (08:35):
Kamala Harris has said she does disagree with Joe Biden,
specifically when it comes to marijuana. She did an interview
on the sports and culture podcast called All the Smoke.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
She won't sit down.
Speaker 9 (08:55):
With a journalist who has not endorsed her for president,
but she'll sit down with a podcast called.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
All the Smoke.
Speaker 9 (09:07):
She reaffirmed her support for legalizing marijuana. She said, I
just feel strongly people should not be going to jail
for smoking weed, and we know historically what that has
meant and who has gone to jail, she said. She
added supporting marijuana legalization is not a new position. I
have felt for a long time that we need to
legalize it.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
See that's the kind of these are the kind of
voters that may not turn out, you know what I mean, Like,
these are the kind of voters I think that she
needs to connect with to get them to mobilize to
the polls. If she sits down with you know, NBC
or what have you, those are stuck into Democrats who
watch the news who are already going to.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Vote for her.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
But if she gets the people who may be reluctant
to get to the polls, that's smart.
Speaker 9 (09:51):
Are there enough of those independent, non committed voters left
in this cycle for to do any of those types
of interviews? I mean, I'm reiterating what I think you're saying,
which is this is more likely to get somebody to
get off the couch and vote right, even though they're
(10:13):
high as f.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
The Democrats are all going to vote for her she
needs to get the independence she needs to get to
people who normally wouldn't vote, and that could make the difference.
Speaker 9 (10:25):
When former President Trump said that he supports an initiative
to legalize recreational use of marijuana in Florida, her campaign
said that this is blatant pandering. Hold on a second,
so Trump can say he supports an initiative to legalize
recreational pot and it's blatant pandering. She says she wants
(10:47):
to go further to legalize marijuana, and it's not blatant pandering.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
She has not.
Speaker 9 (10:53):
Really mentioned a whole lot of marijuana policy since she
launched her campaign. There's no reference to it on her
campaign website. She has avoided answering specific questions about her
position as recently as last week.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Trump has openly admitted to hating overtime. He was in Erie, Pennsylvania,
and he says, I shouldn't say this.
Speaker 8 (11:17):
I know I know a lot about it.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Yes, I know a lot about overtime.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
I'd hated to give overtime.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
I hated it.
Speaker 6 (11:26):
I'd get other people. I shouldn't say this, but I
get other people, and I wouldn't say I hated This
is going to lead to a lot more. I think
it's going to be economically positive. But I'm not even
doing it for that reason. I'm doing it because, like
the no text on overtime, it's something so good.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
So she her campaign seized on this immediately. Donald Trump
is finally opening up to it. He's built an entire
career unscrewing over workers, and it's exactly what he did
in the White House and what he plans to do
in a second term.
Speaker 9 (11:55):
As we get closer to this, a lot we're what
thirty days, thirty five, four days as we get closer
to this. Tomorrow is October. Everybody's worried about there being
some sort of October surprise. Hillary Clinton's the latest to
suggest that there's going to be something. Elon Musk has
(12:16):
said that he would watch out for one. I think
was the term that he used. There's a concern that
Jack Smith, the Special Council's report on the January sixth
trial and hearing a court case, I should say that
that information was going to come out, she said. She,
being former Secretary of State, Clinton warned that this October
(12:39):
surprise quote, there will be concerted efforts to distort and pervert.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
Kamala Harris, she's talking about that.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
She said, the Pizzagate thing that Hillary Clinton was hit
with wasn't that October her October surprise where Democrats were
using this pizza parlor and child trafficking out of the
basement of it.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
And it was so ridiculous. Remember that from twenty six sixty.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
Oh, I remember it.
Speaker 9 (13:04):
But the bigger, the bigger surprise was Anthony Wiener's laptop, right,
I mean, that was the that was an actual thing.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
He's trying to take away any legitimacy that may come
from an October surprise against Kamala.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Herm the new Anthony Wiener laptop.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
Exactly move away from the classified documents and move to
the radical they're eating the children, or they're eating the animals,
and they're making the geese watch.
Speaker 9 (13:33):
She says, it was a huge story speaking of pizzagate,
and it got one young man in North Carolina to
get in his car with his assault rival assault rifle
and drove up to liberate these non existent children and
shoot up a pizzeria in Washington, DC. And she said,
this is dangerous stuff. It starts online, often on the
dark Web, and it migrates it's picked up by the
(13:54):
pro Trump media, It's then reported on by everybody else,
which makes sure it has about one hundred percent coverage,
and then people believe it. So, she says, the digital
airwaves are going to be filled with misinformation that can
take a life, take on a life of its own.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
What are we doing there, Let's do hurricane stuff.
Speaker 9 (14:14):
We've got to bring back some of the information about
what's going on in the aftermath of Hurricane Helen.
Speaker 4 (14:19):
Some areas absolutely decimated.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
We have no idea about exactly how big the devastation
is right now, and people are trapped in their homes.
They've got no food, no water, no yeah, no running water,
they've got no power. Did you imagine being holed up
with your kids like that?
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Oh my goodness.
Speaker 8 (14:37):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
How did y'all do Gas Fantasy four play? How's a
tough slate of games, wasn't it?
Speaker 4 (14:48):
I did very awful?
Speaker 2 (14:49):
You did it very awful.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
I did it very awful.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
I'm very sorry.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
Hey, look at that.
Speaker 9 (14:53):
There's people who work here, yo. Speaking of which, I
saw Krozer in the hallway already. You see him very
often at all.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
It's your early. Very nice to see you always, nice
to see closure.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
That's very nice.
Speaker 9 (15:05):
Yes, speaking of we did mention that the Monday night
football header Tennessee at Miami is the first game. Seattle
at Detroit is the second game tonight. Angels ended their
regular season without so much as a whimper and ate
nothing lost to the Rangers. The Angels had a franchise
worst season sixty three and ninety nine.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
They were worse than the White Sox.
Speaker 9 (15:27):
No for the franchise, it was the worst record for
the Angels. Dodgers ended their regular season a two to
one win against the lowly Rockies. The Dodgers and of
course with the National League West title on ninety eight
to sixty four record. First round by their first game
of the NLDS will be Saturday. They will not know
who they play, of course, until later this week and
(15:47):
the wildcard games are figured out.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
What we knew it was going to be brutal, and
it turns out it was unsurvivable. As Helene smashed into
Florida and the Gulf coast there and the Carolinas at
least one hundred dead and we don't even know the
scope of the devastation right now. The roads have been
washed out in many places, just broken up, washed out.
(16:11):
People are trapped in their homes with no way of
getting emergency services in.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
It is dire straits out there.
Speaker 9 (16:17):
Yeah, the death toll you mentioned over one hundred, we
saw one hundred and ten. I have heard a couple
of different places that it's up over one hundred and
twenty already, and the unfortunate part is it will continue
to go up. One of the issues is communication, and
as we heard from one of the Fox Weather reporters
that was out in western North Carolina. His name is
(16:39):
Robert Ray. He said, cell phones have been an issue
for the for many of those people. Sell service, I
should say so that even when it's coming in and out,
unless you can have a dedicated line to contact the
people that you need to be in contact with, they're
still considered missing or unaccounted for.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
At this point, the governor in North Carolina has activated
more than five hundred soldiers and airmen from the National Guard,
including more than two hundred vehicles and aircraft. The aircraft
being key because as we mentioned, you know, with the
roads unpassable, they're going to have to hoist emergency assets
and use high water response vehicles as well.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
And they're still in a life saving mode.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
They're still trying to save lives here because there are
people in peril.
Speaker 9 (17:31):
The President did speak earlier today from the White House
and said it's they'll be there.
Speaker 4 (17:36):
They the federal government will be there as long as
it takes.
Speaker 5 (17:38):
As President, I've seen firsthand the devastating toll so disasters
like this take on families and communities. I went on
the ground many disasters area since I've been president. Man,
I've heard dozens of stories from survivors about how it
feels to be left with nothing, not even knowing where
(17:59):
when they're back on track. I'm here to tell every
single survivor and these impacted areas that we will be
there with you as long as it takes.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
I seek you yourself.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Excuse me, you want to cough again.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
They said it's going to be one of the costliest
storms in US history.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (18:17):
ACU Weather increased its estimate of the total damage and
economic loss from Hurricane Helene to between one hundred and
forty five and one hundred and sixty billion dollars. One
of the reasons that it would be the most costly
or one of the most costliest storms in the history
of the United States is because of that storm surge.
We saw the storm surge in Florida in some places
(18:41):
reach well over ten feet, which is enough to inundate
I mean entire towns where nothing escapes being flooded. Energy
production in the Gulf is recovering. About three percent of
crude oil and one percent of natural gas production in
the Gulf of Mexico is still shut down. They do
obviously shut those things down when the hurricanes roll through,
(19:03):
but they do it all the time. So the good
news is it's able to get back up and running
as quickly as possible.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Three firefighters from San Diego were seriously entered in a
car crash on their way to help out there in
North Carolina. Happen about two forty five local time near
the Texas Louisiana border. They are receiving medical care in Louisiana.
They were taken by air ambulance to Louisiana State University
Hospital in Shreveport.
Speaker 9 (19:29):
These are members of the Fire Department's Urban Search and
Rescue California Task Force eight. We're headed out there to
assist in the efforts from the impacts. Of course, it
includes forty eight people from multiple agencies, does Task Force eight.
The remainder of the team was able to make its
way to Texas. They're waiting further instructions, of course, but
(19:52):
that's a pretty devastating if those guys are not okay,
that's a pretty devastating loss of teammates at least, even
if you can't I mean, even if they're not killed
in this crash, the fact that they wouldn't be part
of the team that you would expecting.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
I was looking for an update on the firefighters that
were in that rollover crash a week ago responding to
the airport fire, and I didn't see an update. Curious
about that, any sort of good news coming out of that.
I think six were seriously injured, eight in that rollover
crash when they were coming back from working that twelve
hour shift.
Speaker 9 (20:27):
The other thing is we mentioned how it is getting
warmer over the next couple of days, some heat advisories
and heat warnings up through Wednesday, because we'll see triple
digits in a lot of places like including here in
the valley. And I mentioned the public safety power shutoffs
as of right now They didn't have any on Edison's website,
but PG and E says that they've been forced to
(20:49):
cut off power in a few places.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
For example, good.
Speaker 10 (20:51):
Morning, Gary and Shannon. Just to update you on the
PG and E outages. My sister and her husband live
up and Ready and they had their power turned off
at nine point thirty this morning. Probably won't be back
on till one o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Have a good day.
Love you guys. Man.
Speaker 9 (21:11):
A lot of this stuff, whether it's these power shut offs,
the hurricanes, the tropical storms, there is such an emphasis
there needs to be such an emphasis on preparing for
that when it happens to you, whether it's expected or not,
whether it's a few days warning in a hurricane, the
(21:31):
sudden earthquake, whatever it is, in terms of making sure
that you have the ability to last through this. The
public safety power shut offs in northern California are all
in areas that have burned before she mentioned they're right
around Reading. There's several right around Reading. There's a few
just east of Chico and that Paradise Megalia area that
we saw the fire burned several years ago, and then
(21:55):
over in Glen County, they've also seen along where the
Mendicine or National Forest is. They've seen plenty of fires
there in the last couple of summers, and some of
those areas have had their power shut off also, So
just to be ready for it, especially when it's going
to be warm and windy.
Speaker 7 (22:11):
Like it is.
Speaker 8 (22:13):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Jamie Lee Curtis was recently asked about the secret to
her forty year marriage to actor for actor Christopher death Guest.
I keep doing that ACTI for Gaviner active for what?
Why am I conflating words?
Speaker 4 (22:32):
You didn't speak very much all weekend until yesterday R
in the game.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Yeah, I I did, and then you sat and read
the paper.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
You got a lot of words jumbled around in that
brain up in there.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Yeah, So I spoke all weekend. I was at a
social event Saturday and the birthday party. Yeah, and then
on the air yesterday. And I'm never bringing in a
newspaper here again because everyone has to say things about it.
Speaker 9 (22:57):
That's the first newspaper that's been brought into this building.
And I would argue eight years's sad. Is that excellent point?
Speaker 1 (23:05):
I just think it's the fact that it's notable that
there's a newspaper in a news day and everybody goes
what Everyone's like, Oh, you're really getting into that, You're
really enjoying that newspaper. It's like, well, that's you're supposed to.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
Read them, read them all right.
Speaker 9 (23:20):
Anyway, you have to explain to the people in the
newsroom that that's like when you print out the internet
and stack it all together.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
I'm so troubled by the fact that everyone's so shocked
there's a newspaper here.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Wow, I'm old, Okay.
Speaker 10 (23:33):
So.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Jamie Lee Curtis has asked about her forty year marriage
to actor Christopher Guest, and she says the key to
this marriage includes patience, perseverance, and a really good.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Dose of hatred.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Hatred, she said, all of a sudden, you literally want
to hate each other, and then the next day it's
a pretty sunny day and the dog does something cute
or your child does something cute, and you look up
at each other and you're like, ah, gosh, and you're
on another track. Relationship experts say it's normal for couples
to experience moments of what feels like genuine hatred. The
(24:08):
difference between couples who last and those who don't can
lie in how they handle their.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Emotions in these moments.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Jane Greer is a marriage and family therapist author of
am I Lying to Myself?
Speaker 2 (24:20):
That looks like a fun freaking read?
Speaker 1 (24:22):
She says, hating the person you love is the most
common thing in the world. We think we're supposed to
love our partner all the time unconditionally, but that's not
the way it works.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
But that is the way it is sold, isn't it.
Speaker 8 (24:36):
I mean.
Speaker 9 (24:39):
The romantic movies, the even the ones that are less romantic,
that are more you know.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
What, sex. Yeah, what do you watching sex movies?
Speaker 9 (24:50):
Well, I'm not saying I do. I'm saying Flow Weekend
speaking forgebra here. But it's just the impression that that's
always going to be the same.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
What is that you're always going to be in love
like that? Oh? I see that there aren't moments of hatred.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
Right, Yeah?
Speaker 9 (25:06):
Because you would never listen if, say, Reese Witherspoon and
Ryan Gosling.
Speaker 4 (25:12):
I'm sure they've done a movie together, have they not?
Speaker 2 (25:14):
I don't think so.
Speaker 9 (25:15):
If they did a romantic comedy service to us, wouldn't
we would, it would be written in a way to
make it seem like they're always going to be in love.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Well, there's always an after they get past the first
covert altercation.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Yeah, yeah, I do think that that is a nice
trait is when you disagree about something or you feel
irksome for whatever reason, and then you snap out of
it pretty quickly.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
That's good. That makes you feel good.
Speaker 9 (25:45):
But what makes you snap out of it? I mean,
is it something as simple or dumb as what she's said. Yeah,
so the dog farted and surprised itself, and we can
laugh at that. And therefore, you know what, honey, I
don't don't hate you.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Well, I feel like hate is being overused in a scenario.
I don't think hate like pure hatred is a part
of the recipe for a long marriage.
Speaker 9 (26:10):
If it is hatred, If it is hatred, maybe there's
something bigger.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
Can be annoyed or di the disagreement irritated.
Speaker 9 (26:17):
Yes, I believe in laundry all over the place, can't
find the hamper.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
I've learned to preemptively strike when it comes to you.
Speaker 9 (26:29):
Hate him first, before he has a chance to be
irritated at you.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
No, no, I but I will say if I'm feeling
a little irritated, I will give a heads up.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
I'm feeling irritated today, so that.
Speaker 9 (26:42):
How come we around here don't also get heads up
like that?
Speaker 4 (26:47):
Can I make a request?
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (26:50):
Okay, you know what, that's fair, You're right, I apologize
for all of the eggshells scattered around. You have to
have an obstacle course routinely the egg.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Broken bottle, piles of urine.
Speaker 4 (27:13):
But you'll give a heads up, and how is it received?
Then he'll know.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
You know, just don't talk to me, or just.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
Per space, or just don't talk about that subject.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
Or things that yeah, probably.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
Or past subjects that have raised.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Years of dealing with crazy.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
So he's getting he's getting used to it by now.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Well, it just knows the pitfalls those where those shells are,
the broken bottles. So how often does your wife get
annoyed with you?
Speaker 4 (27:45):
Many times?
Speaker 2 (27:46):
Really? And how does she? How do you know that?
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Uh?
Speaker 9 (27:51):
Well, it probably manifests itself in different ways. There are
a lot of times where it's just quiet. Yeah, that's
that's never good. That's never healthy. That's especially just because
of who we are. We're just not we're not generally
quiet people. I tend to be more quiet. Yeah, I
(28:13):
have a lot of conversations in my head that never
make it out my mouth.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
I need to learn that.
Speaker 9 (28:19):
Well, I'm not saying that's the best way to do it. Yeah,
I'm just saying that that is a thing. So when
and my kids have picked up on this too, which
I think is strange because I don't see it in myself.
But they'll ask me a question and I will answer
the question, and then they'll ask me the question again,
and I'll be like, I just I just told you,
(28:39):
and they said you didn't say a word.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
Wow, I have this.
Speaker 9 (28:43):
I'm the machination in my brain of I'm developing the
answer to the question that they've asked, and I convinced
myself that I've already answered the question. And they're like,
you didn't say a word. You just went blank and
didn't answer the question.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
That's like biden stuff. Yes, you could go to the doctor.
I should go to the doctor. Well, that's better than
reacting too soon and saying something that could be damaged.
Speaker 9 (29:08):
Which is the reason I do it is because I'm
I want to be careful with that. I want to
be careful with the answer but then when you're too
careful with the answer, then it becomes manufactured. Or you
don't you don't make noise with your mouth hole at all.
That can be a problem. Right, I'm sure other people
have stories like that too, right where you can you
(29:30):
can love somebody, but you're like, I don't want to.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
I don't want to. I don't want to have to
live with that person.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Right now or right now. Yeah, I want to be
alone right now or I want to or people and.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
Hey, if you hate your spouse, let us know, use
the talk back.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
Feature on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
Do not use your name or use your name. I
don't care. You don't need to hate them anyway.
Speaker 9 (29:50):
But do you know anybody who has separated and gotten
back together, like separated, they moved out and everything.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
People that have tried to get back together, separated and
tried to get back together. I don't think I know
of any successful stories of that.
Speaker 9 (30:07):
Yeah, I can't think of any where they're like, you
know what, it's better than it was before.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
I don't know if anybody who has.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Yeah, I don't know. I think that that's like definite
rom com stuff.
