Listening to our Pa guy here at the Hunting the
Pacific Air Show, Ian huntingson beach. They've been able to
they're still doing construction out here too. They're still setting
up fencing around these planes that landed on the beach
a little while ago, and then they took off on
the beach, and then they landed on the beach again.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
The tropics are not slowing down on the heels of
Hurricane Helene. National Hurricane Center currently monitoring two named storms
still strengthening in the Atlantic, and there is a disturbance
near the Gulf of Mexico. You've got Hurricane Kirk that
was upgraded to a hurricane status Tuesday night, now category four.

(00:46):

few days. It's off the Leeward Islands, one hundred and
forty mile per hour winds.

or anything, are they No? No, what else is going on?

Speaker 4 (01:05):
Oh, it's that time time for what's happening.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
The big deal locally, of course, is that Jim McDonald
has been selected as the new chief of the Los
Angeles Police Department. Long time fixed ure in law enforcement
here in southern California, and I think both of us
have said that kudos to Mayor Bass for picking the
right guy for the job. I've always liked Jim McDonald's
and chances are we're gonna get him on the show

(01:32):
on a regular basis, so we look forward to that
as well. There is a story that has come out
about sofar being among the NFL's best and worst stadiums.
You've been to just about every single one of them.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
So I have been to all the stadiums in the NFL.
I capped that off with a trip to Lambeau last season,
where I shed tears. It was the last stadium for
me to visit.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
According to the top the top five NFL stadiums survey, let.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
Me tell you what my top five are. Okay, Lambo, Okay,
Arrowhead not.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
On the list, at least not in their top five.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
Go on Denver Stadium, Mile High Nope, Dallas yep. And
I'll go with.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Work it down in Buffalo Okay, so their list, you
got lambeau Field and AT and T Stadium where the
Dallas Cowboys play. Okay, at and T was number five.
Lambo is actually number two on this list. They said
the best NFL stadium lumen Field, Seahawks.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
I hate that stadium. I'm going there on Thursdays.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
Used to be cool Quest Quest Field.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
Yeah, I just hate it because it's so loud. I mean,
it's so great for the Seahawks. It gets that. The
acoustics in there are incredible.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
Where the sound comes bouncing off of the half roof
that they've got. Yeah, so Luma is first, Lambo Field
for the Packers.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
Number two.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
US Bank Stadium where the Vikings play.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
That's a great stadium. Is Indianapolis in there.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
No, not in the top five at least, And then
they say, so far is number four where the Chargers
and Rams play off.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
I disagree.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
The bottom five, Yeah, Levi's samar Stadium where the Bills play.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
Oh weird, I love it.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
Ever Bank where the Jaguars play. Yes, that's trash Pay
Corps where the Bengals play in Cincinnati. Okay, met Life
where the Giants and Jets share a field.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
That's the worst stadium in the league. It's completely there's
no personality, there's nothing to show who plays there. It's awful.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
And then the last bottom of this list is Northwest Stadium,
where the Washington Commanders play.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Yeah, that's a that's a trash stadium.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
We told you earlier about this breaking not breaking, but
a developing story perhaps about Garth Brooks and the allegations
against him, of course overshadowed by the sheer number of
lawsuits that have been filed against Sean Diddy Coombs.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Oh right, right, right, wasn't there a Beaver's story out?

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Yeah? So a twenty eleven video of Justin Bieber here's
the Asprey and Diddy uh from Jimmy Kimmel Live has resurfaced,
and this clip begins with Jimmy Kimmel asking what their
friendship is like and if they like working on music together.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
He says, I think that we've become friends in a
strange way. It's like Rob and Big in reference to
skateboarder Rob. I don't know that Dirk Dirdak and his bodyguard, uh.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
And he says, I'm the Big and your Rob.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
He's to a lot of us, he's like a little brother.
He's not afraid to call and ask for advice. He's
somebody that we definitely have our arms around, and we
want to protect him because he's genuinely he's such a
nice person besides his talent.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
But at one point he apparently says, basically, uh, don't
He says, I've been given custody of him. He signed
to Usher, and I had legal guardianship of Usher when
he did his first album. I don't have legal guardianship
of Bieber. But for the next forty eight hours, he's
with me and we're gonna go full crazy ooh and basically,

(05:12):
don't talk about the stuff that we're gonna do.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
Oh man, which I mean sounds like that sounds like
public grooming, doesn't it.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
We'll taken out of context, sure, but I don't even
know what kind of great context there is to put
into it. Oh, you know what we gotta do. But
oh right, let's we gotta do our Gas Fantasy four play.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
Yeah, we got caught up in poop talk.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
We got caught up in our poop talk and didn't
get a chance to Uh so when we do Gas
Fantasy four play on Twitter, this is how you do it?
Or X, we're going to post these four games. Jacob
has decided which games we're gonna choose, and all you
have to do is come up with the winners of
those four games. Easier said than done, has any No,
none of us have gotten it perfect yet in the
first four weeks. So now, Jacob, what's our first game

(05:58):
for Week five?

Speaker 4 (05:59):
All right? Game number one? We have the New York
Jets at the Minnesota Vikings.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
The Jets are a mess. Aaron Rodgers I believe is
too good for this team. The way it is this
year is just a lost season. The Vikings look like
Super Bowl contenders. I'll take Minnesota.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
I also take Minnesota because of the strength of their stadium. Jacob,
I have the Vikings too, and Kean, you want to
throw in there, I also have the Vikings. All right,
what's our game too?

Speaker 5 (06:24):
All right?

Speaker 4 (06:25):
Game two?

Speaker 6 (06:25):
We have Keanu's Miami Dolphins going to New England to
take on the Patriots.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
Dolphins at the Patriots.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
The Dolphins are trash and everybody knows it. Without Tua,
they have no shot any week in this in this league.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
All right?

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Well, the Patriots all so difficult to watch, but I'll
take the home team.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
With the Patriots and the only.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Reason they always play the Dolphins well too, like the
Dolphins always have a hard time beating the Patriots.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
I'm gonna this is this is my sleeper though. I
thank you, I know, but I don't feel good about
this pick what I'm saying the Patriots.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
Hey, who's starting, uh, Jacob for the For the Dolphins
at quarterback.

Speaker 4 (07:08):
I think it's the same backup that they've been using.
That he made a change, Kyler, Skyler Thompson.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
Mike McDaniel decided on someone new.

Speaker 4 (07:17):
Well kind of doesn't matter, he doesn't.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
Who do you choose, Jacob? I have the Patriots, yes,
Skyler Thompson and Keana Dolphins. Dolphins. There you go, keeping
it different, all right, all right, Jacob? Game three? All right?
Game three?

Speaker 6 (07:31):
We have two sorry teams. We have the Las Vegas
Raiders and the Denver Broncos.

Speaker 7 (07:35):
Man.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
Uh, I'm gonna pick. I'm gonna pick the Broncos just
to sing with my home team and according to Shannon,
the strength of the stadium.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
I like bo Nicks. I think he's putting some together
there in Denver. I'll take Denver as well. Look, he's
gonna start Tyler Huntley. Ps guys, Mike McDaniel will be
starting Tyler Huntley.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
Well, yeah, I think producer Matt is like third on
the depth chart for quarterback today this weekend for the Dolphins. So, Jacob,
who you got?

Speaker 3 (08:04):
Raiders?

Speaker 2 (08:04):
Broncos? I have the Broncos in this one and Keana.

Speaker 4 (08:07):
So this is a family rivalry.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
Okay, So usually.

Speaker 4 (08:11):
I stand indifferent, but today I'll pick the Raider.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
Is Max Crosby going to play? He was out last week.
Davante Adams isn't gonna play, and he's he wants the
first ticket out of Vegas. I just think they're still dysfunctional.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
All right, Game four, Jacob, all right, our last game.

Speaker 4 (08:27):
We have the Buffalo Bills heading to Houston take on
the Texans.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Oh you know you love that CJ. Stroud.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
I gotta get you that jersey.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
Him and Bryce Young that are almost identical people, but
they're not.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
The Bills let me down last week after a great performance.
They looked like dog crap. They looked like they needed
sixteen squares. It was awful. Well, I will take the
Texans as well.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
I am pick picking the Texans. Josh Allen let me
down when I picked all quarterbacks with the name that
started with the letter J.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
That was a fun time, was a good you're picking
all home teams.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
Jacob, I've got this one too.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
And Kean, I think everybody almost almost did take the Dolphins.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
She took the Raiders.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
The Dolphins play the Patriots.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
I know I took the Dolphins the Raiders.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
Okay, all right, so there's some there's some wiggle room
in there. Kean is gonna come out on top, and
we're all gonna look.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
Like, what what's the tally so far? Who's ahead?

Speaker 2 (09:21):
Jacob? Do we know?

Speaker 6 (09:22):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (09:23):
I have not talied them up, but.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
Yeah, it's pretty crowded in the mediocre lane.

Speaker 6 (09:29):
Yeah, No, one's gone four. Oh I think the best
was Shannon three and one.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
All right, you can play along. We'll post these spores
that question just to get that answer. Post the games
I am on Twitter. Play along with us. You can
either respond to the tweet that we post, or you
can add the hashtag gas Fantasy four play and if
you pick all four, we'll get in contact and get
you some some Gary and Shannon show swag. A little
hazier now than it was a little earlier. In fact,

(09:55):
they had that MV twenty two osprey flying around a
short time ago, and I kind of hid behind the
clos and then it would pop out and give everybody
a nice surprise. So very cool stuff going on out
here at the Pacific Air Show.

Speaker 1 (10:07):
What turn that on right there? It's my first day
pilot Tom Tommy Remoo's joining us. He is a friend
of the show. He's a big air show enthusiasts.

Speaker 3 (10:17):
A little bit, a little bit, a little bit, yeah,
shout out to a Pacific Air Show. They're so awesome.

Speaker 8 (10:22):
Kevin Elliott and Eric Schmid say they are two best
guys on the planet.

Speaker 3 (10:26):
Been friends with them for a long time, and I'm.

Speaker 8 (10:28):
Just so happy to have me out every year, and
they really roll out the red carpet for me.

Speaker 3 (10:31):
So it's really goazy.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
So how did you get your nickname gear Down?

Speaker 3 (10:34):
So it's it's all about flying.

Speaker 8 (10:35):
So I'm a pilot, and when you put your first job,
when you get hired onto an airplane, is you sitting.

Speaker 3 (10:40):
You're a cope pilot and your whole job is to
put the lning gear up and down.

Speaker 8 (10:43):
So I coined that name gear down because everybody would
yell at me gear down, gear down, yeah, I'd be
looking out the window.

Speaker 3 (10:48):
Oh gosh, I gotta put the gear down. So that's
how it came about.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
What's your favorite part about air shows?

Speaker 8 (10:54):
Mynylairs down here, It's got to be all the crazy
military stuff, right, just seeing what the things that all
the technologies that that's out there, is the way that
these aircraft fly that as a pilot, you look at
him like, I can't fathom how.

Speaker 3 (11:08):
These things do what they do in the air. It's crazy.

Speaker 8 (11:10):
So I do you imagine like the stuff that we
don't even know about yet, right, yeah, So this is
what they allow us to see, which is right.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
So you have a pretty popular YouTube channel and content
that you put out regularly.

Speaker 3 (11:20):
I do.

Speaker 2 (11:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (11:21):
So I own a jet management company and I cater
basically to musicians. So my entire company we run worldwide tours.
So on my YouTube channel, I try to showcase the
other side of aviation that everybody thinks that they want
to get into this industry.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
You got to go be a flight instructor forever. Go
work at the airlines. Right.

Speaker 8 (11:43):
I fly how I'm dressed right now in a T shirt,
shorts and flip flops a lot of the time, and
we fly around the world and so on YouTube, I
try to showcase the up and coming pilots, this whole
other world that's out there that you can make a
ton of money and live a really great lifestyle. It's
a good work life balance. You kind of pick and
choose you want to do and it's just really great.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
We talk a lot about you know, if we're flying
an airline or somewhere, we like to know that that
I want to see my pilot have a little bit
of gray hair, you know, you want to know that
that guy was flying A four is over Vietnam at
some point. I mean, the idea that military is the
way to get into being a pilot, that's not the
way it is anymore. I mean, I know a personal
friend of mine not in the military, but he's been

(12:23):
a pilot for twenty five years now.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
Yeah. Yeah, I'm kind of in the same boat.

Speaker 8 (12:26):
So I retired at the age of twenty nine out
of a completely different industry, and I always wanted to
learn to fly, and so I bought a little cessin
airplane and learned to fly. And the next thing, you know,
with like a friend offered this and this and this,
and now forty one. I've got all kinds of gray hair,
so I'm one of the gray hair guys out.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
Is it addictive? It seems like an addictive hobby that
turns into a lifestyle.

Speaker 3 (12:47):
It's a sickness. It's worth sitting addiction. It's a sickness. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (12:49):
I've since I started out, bought and sold so many airplanes.
I currently have four right now, which I'm like, what
am I doing. I'm not even home enough to fly
any of them. But yeah, it's it's a true sickness.

Speaker 3 (12:58):
It's an addiction. There's nothing the ultimate personal freedom.

Speaker 9 (13:02):
Right.

Speaker 8 (13:02):
So even if you look at my clients, they got
to call me to go somewhere, right. I have my
own airplane park here at John Wayne. If I want
to go somewhere, I.

Speaker 3 (13:09):
Just show up and go.

Speaker 8 (13:10):
I don't have to call anybody. I don't have to
ask permission. I just do what I want.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
It's so funny. We often talk about that, most recently
because kids these days don't want to get their license, right,
And I was telling him, like, I remember distinctly two
memories of like sheer freedom. And it was when I
got my first bike and I could just like like
take off on my bike out of the cul de
Sac down to the park or wherever I wanted to
go to thrifties for candy or whatever. Like it was

(13:36):
just like this feeling I had never known before, and
it's such adrenaline. And then of course the first time
that you, you know, get your license and you drive
away from your parents' house and like so it's got
to be that on steroids when you get to be
in the sky.

Speaker 8 (13:49):
Oh yeah, I mean it's it's mind boggling even think
that kids don't want to drive his license nowadays, I've
got a three year old and I can't wait that
until he turns seventeen. Now I can cut him loose
in an airplane.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
You know, it's is this your kid?

Speaker 3 (14:00):
Yeah, he's out there right there the mom having a
good time. So I'm I'm lucky for now he's got
the aviation bug. So hopefully it'll stick with it.

Speaker 8 (14:06):
And you know, I try to be a good influence,
not only to my son, but to all the other kids.

Speaker 3 (14:11):
My general demo on my YouTube channel.

Speaker 8 (14:13):
It's very young, it's aspiring pilots, So I try to
do a lot to help all the out and really
just show them like it's Okay, I understand it cost
a lot of money to get into.

Speaker 3 (14:20):
This, but there's options to get into it. There's financing,
there's grants.

Speaker 8 (14:24):
I personally do with twenty thousand dollars every year, scholarship
that I give away my own money to help kids
train and get into the industry.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
Why is that important? I mean, obviously there's we want
to make sure that we have pilots going forward in
the future and stuff. But why, I mean, what do
you get out of that?

Speaker 3 (14:38):
You know, honestly, I don't get anything. I just get happiness.
It makes me happy.

Speaker 8 (14:42):
There's nothing more than I just ran into two kids
down here. They're like, oh my gosh, you're down. We
watch a channel.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
We love you so much, And I just think it's
the coolest thing. I get messages all the time.

Speaker 8 (14:50):
You scroll the comments on my YouTube and everybody's on
there like, thank you so much.

Speaker 3 (14:54):
You inspired me.

Speaker 8 (14:55):
I was in a run in my training or I
started and I didn't finish, and now I'm going back.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
So we need pilots.

Speaker 8 (15:00):
And it's a great career. It's It's one of those
things that I tell people all the time. It's kind
of like going to trade school, right to be a
plumber and an electrician.

Speaker 3 (15:07):
But at the end of it, you're guaranteed after a.

Speaker 8 (15:09):
Few years to be making a million bucks. You know,
you will retire a millionaire if you get into this
industry unless.

Speaker 3 (15:15):
You do something that's not good, to do something stupid planes.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
Absolutely, okay, I just I don't know. Absolutely, okay, does
it matter, No, it doesn't matter at all. I will
take you both flying circles for an hour. I don't care.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
Oh, we just did that yesterday. You guys missing if
you're out here over the water. Yeah?

Speaker 8 (15:32):
Really, but yeah, So we did it with a whole
bunch of people from the air show and we came
out here. We did laps at a low pass along
the beach and it was awesome.

Speaker 2 (15:39):
So, I mean, the fascination with airplanes and flying, I mean,
I don't think it's it's not uncommon, but what is
your favorite Like if you get an experience in an
in an airplane, whether it was one of yours or
somebody else, you know.

Speaker 3 (15:52):
I'm gonna be honest.

Speaker 8 (15:53):
I started my career in flying heavy jets, doing contracting
for the federal government, all the alphabet agencies. So I've
been all around the world, and I've been to a
lot of places I can't.

Speaker 3 (16:02):
Even talk about.

Speaker 10 (16:03):
Wow.

Speaker 8 (16:03):
But those those experiences are the ones that those will
be in the book.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
Later on when it comes out one of these days.

Speaker 3 (16:09):
But yeah, it's been a lot of cool stuff. But overall,
I love flying the golf.

Speaker 8 (16:11):
Stream G four SP so it's so overpowered still see
fifteen people, And I mean we took off out here
out of john wayn yesterday like a rocket ship and
everybody in the back was like.

Speaker 1 (16:20):
Oh my gosh, I would like to borrow the golf
Stream absolutely anytime.

Speaker 2 (16:25):
Any time.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
Yet I got to do is reach out to me.
I'll make sure it's all taken care of.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
Is there is there room in the market for more
people to start a business like you have?

Speaker 8 (16:33):
So the thing about aviation, to run a company like
I do, it's all relationship based, right, So you're not
necessarily going to go and get a degree in aviation
management and get out and start a management company.

Speaker 3 (16:44):
It's all relationship based. So I was very fortunate.

Speaker 8 (16:46):
I came from the music industry before, and so I
already had all these contacts to people that were constantly
chartering jets.

Speaker 3 (16:51):
So it was built in for me. The other thing too,
Look at me.

Speaker 8 (16:53):
I don't look like a pilot other than the gray hair, right,
I don't look like a pilot. But these guys love
to interact with me because I look like them, I
talk like them. You know, I drive a car very
similar to theirs, and so those things combined makes my
little niche of this industry work. A lot of the older,
old school pilots kind of look at me like who
is this guy?

Speaker 3 (17:11):
But a lot you know, it's just kind of how
it goes here.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
Yeah, so that's awesome. Well, thanks for what you do.
I love the idea of you know, scholarships for young
kids getting back into It's not an old fashioned industry.
I mean it's only been around for one hundred years,
the idea of flying. But still it's one of those
things I think, don't you know people don't think of
it as a potential career.

Speaker 3 (17:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (17:30):
A couple of TV shows and.

Speaker 3 (17:31):
The works, Yeah I do.

Speaker 8 (17:32):
I've got a couple of shows coming out on an
IC channel, which is Hanger Homes and air Parks, and
then another one's called Around the World with Gear Down,
which basically follows me as I'm flying all my health
musician a list for friends around and we go. So
it's really unique about my situation is the people that
I fly we're friends. Also so typical pilots. They land
a plane and the pilots go to the hotel and

(17:53):
these guys go perform. I lend the plane, we turned
it off and they wait in a limo until I'm
done with the plane, and I get in the car
and I go with them where everything goes.

Speaker 3 (18:01):
So I show pease.

Speaker 8 (18:01):
Yeah, I show everybody what that's like around the world
and it's awesome.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
So it's it's really entertaining.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
Well, congratulations so much cool.

Speaker 3 (18:08):
I appreciate you guys having me on this. It's so awesome.

Speaker 2 (18:10):
Of course, Tommy Remo, you know imas gear down on
the YouTube channel check this stuff out. Thanks for coming
by me.

Speaker 8 (18:15):
We thank you guys so much. Hey, I just want
to say real quick, I've been a huge fan.

Speaker 3 (18:18):
Of show for a lot of years. Conway.

Speaker 8 (18:21):
I've been listening to Camfi since I was little. My
parents addicted to it.

Speaker 3 (18:24):
So life's good. Thank you guys so much.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
I appreciate you.

Speaker 3 (18:27):
With you all right, thank you.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
There are a couple of stories that we have been
following The big deal this morning was La Mayor Karen
Bass announced that she has chosen Jim McDonald to be
the next chief of the La Police Department. A fantastic
choice and he still has to be approved by the
city Council, we believe, but that's not going to be
a problem. Of course. We got World Cup Olympic Games
coming up here in La and he's going to have

(18:49):
a huge role to play. The dock workers went back
to work. They've reached a tenetive agreement to at least
work through January fifteenth while they work on some more
contract stuff. Unemployment rate went down to a four point
one percent. Job gains actually increased by the most in
six months in September. We were talking earlier about wiping

(19:10):
and things like that.

Speaker 5 (19:10):
In regards to wiping, you have to just create an
arm length of toilet paper, fold that in half, foild
it in half again, you wipe, then you fold, wipe again,
then you me to Sometimes you don't in order to
save toilet paper. You fold one more time. Okay, you're done.

Speaker 2 (19:33):
You fold too many times. You're playing with danger. I mean,
you're playing with fire at that point.

Speaker 1 (19:38):
Of toilet paper. I'm surprised there's not more cloggage in
the system.

Speaker 2 (19:42):
This was my favorite quote of the day. Authority that
Amber heard only uses two sheets. Two sheets, get it?

Speaker 1 (19:50):
Get it? Very funny.

Speaker 2 (19:52):
Well, we don't have the music because I can't play
both of them at the same time, but we do
have some stories and some things that people learned this week.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
While they I feels like we've probably covered a lot
of intelligent things when I was gone, but I think so,
huh yeah, But my bet is that by and large
it's going to be poop talk.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
Well, there are a few, there are a few. So
this is what you learned this week on a Gary channel.

Speaker 9 (20:14):
I learned on the Gary and Shannon Show this week
is you guys battle each other about your imaginations Gary
on being a jet fighter pilot and Shannon with Miss Patricia.

Speaker 5 (20:26):
And also you need to.

Speaker 9 (20:28):
Tell your stalker there, Carl to get a job. Seems
like he's always with you guys, tell me to get
a job.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
Wow, that's her aggressive. I think he's just jealous that
Carl's does spend so much time with us. Carls very nice,
He's wonderful.

Speaker 2 (20:42):
Yeah, Hey, Gary and Shannon, I learned a couple of things.

Speaker 9 (20:45):
First of all, clearly, I learned that Shannon has no roughage,
vegetables or anything else if she only needs that many.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Squares of toilet paper.

Speaker 9 (20:53):
Beyond that, I learned way, way, way too much about
toilet paper usage by employees of KFI take care of
by Yeah, thank.

Speaker 1 (21:01):
You, but it together, guys.

Speaker 11 (21:04):
This week on The Garian Shanny Show, I learned about
the interesting history and fate of the United States Navy
destroyer Stuart, thegot ship with the Pacific likeck, you guys,
do you tell me stories and then it piques my interest,
so I got to read about it myself. The Stuart
actually had a bad reputation and before the war World
War two crash three times in five years.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Anyway, Aloha from Maui.

Speaker 11 (21:26):
Y'all have a good weekend.

Speaker 8 (21:27):
See you by.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Aloha mahllow mallow mallow Hey, Gary.

Speaker 7 (21:33):
Hey Shannon. This week on the Gary and Shannon Show,
HI learned that with the utmost respect and peace and love,
sh Shannon, you meeting Maverick and Iceman sounded like Disney
adults meeting their favorite princesses or characters. I see that
with love and peace and respect, and I look up

(21:56):
to Shannon. But that's okay, I have a good weekend.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
So true, So true.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
I loved that movie as it used it still do.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
It was like a Disney adult me in their favorite princess.
So true.

Speaker 10 (22:10):
Yes, this week on The Gary and Shannon Show, we
learned that Gary wipes like most chicks do, god, and
Shannon wipes like most guys do.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
Oh my god.

Speaker 10 (22:21):
We learned so much fun news stuff every week on
this show.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
Now, that was the only one I didn't quite understand.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
But somehow help you and I don't know how he
knows what women, how they wipe, what their wiping style is.
This is the first time I've ever talked to anyone
about wiping. I was just gonna say, like, I have
no knowledge of how other people wipe until today.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
Of all the people as that we described knowing, I
know that I had a cousin, right, and then my
son right, Like those are the only two people I
think have ever heard.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
You don't even know if your wife is a rapper
or a bundler.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
I don't care, and it doesn't matter to me.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
It shouldn't, right it should.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
I mean, is that a deal breaker? If you find
out that.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
He's a cue?

Speaker 2 (23:04):
Tipper uh maybe, or like the one guy said, you
just fold over and fold over and then fold.

Speaker 1 (23:13):
Over, you field the length of your arm.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
That's too much, that's like eight that's probably eight or
ten squares right there, right, and then you fold it
fold it over the course of never mind, just never
mind multiple.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
I know now, I know you're a three wiper. That's
what I learned for a.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
Nine News nugget. You need to know. These are the
stories that fell through the cracks because we were having
too much fun talking about poop and.

Speaker 1 (23:35):
Now specifically wiping.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
And now we don't have to talk about it anymore.

Speaker 12 (23:41):
Horrible Mention, honorable Mention, serving.

Speaker 2 (23:52):
With you.

Speaker 3 (23:55):
Great and honorable movies.

Speaker 11 (23:57):
So today we're holding auditions to become the newest member
of honorablemensions.

Speaker 1 (24:01):
So I understand this because candles are a very personal things.
One's ideal candle scent is another's tragedy.

Speaker 2 (24:12):
Ever know, okay, you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (24:14):
Like you like a specific scent. I like a specific
scent which may not agree. So a man in New
Jersey is called nine one one on somebody who lit
a scented candle indoors.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
A thirty four year old Alfredo Gonzalez was charged with
making false public alarm or misuse of nine one one
by the Gutenberg Police Department.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
I would do this for Guardina. I really don't like
the smell of gardenia.

Speaker 2 (24:37):
Well, there are some like I love the the my
wife has one or had one that was pine tree
or Christmas tree or something like that. But it was
and I love the smell of pine, but it was
so chemically it was just it was so artificial that
it hurt my nose. It was awful. I would call
nine one one on my wife.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
Did you tell her that or did you just suffer
in silence?

Speaker 2 (25:01):
I just suffered in silence.

Speaker 1 (25:02):
Yeah, that's a smart thing to do.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
That's a lose lose one. Gutenberg police lieutenant said, it's
a shame that people have to use the mental health
system and try to fabricate mental health emergencies in order
to cause issues, because it's not intended for that. Apparently
the guy complained that this was causing him some psychosis
of some kind.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
I feel like the feel good story of the week
comes to us at number nine, number nine.

Speaker 8 (25:28):
I did nine plays with the cops dirty nine times
out of tennis Partner's Dirty two and.

Speaker 4 (25:32):
I speak nine languages.

Speaker 2 (25:34):
Yea rink basically everybody at table mining. I feel ready
to go another nine?

Speaker 3 (25:38):
And niner?

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Did I catch at niner in there? Well, you're calling
from all walkie talking.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
A woman discovers her home had been broken into. What
did she discover? She discovered that that burglar hung out
her washing, put her shopping away, cooked her a meal,
and emptied the recycle.

Speaker 2 (26:00):
That had a nice guy. Thirty six year old Damien
wood Nwitz jailed for almost two years a crowd of
Crown Court this week for carrying out this unusual burglary
back in July.

Speaker 1 (26:12):
The woman said she was left too scared to stay
in her own home after returning from work and finding
that a man had done things around the house.

Speaker 2 (26:19):
She said something was moved in the garden and a
recycling bin had been emptied, and she knew that something
was going on. Yeah, so the guy tidied up and
she was like, yeah, something's wrong here exactly. He left
a note saying don't worry, be happy, eat up and scratch.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
What a wonderful guy.

Speaker 6 (26:37):
Nice?

Speaker 1 (26:37):
What a scratch mean?

Speaker 2 (26:38):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
He even filled the bird feeders. A toothbrush had been replaced,
a toothbrush head had been replaced on the toothbrush aw
maybe he loves her, And an empty bottle of wine
had been placed in a rack. He had cleaned the
floor with a mop and a bucket.

Speaker 2 (26:58):
You don't even have people to do that in your house,
let alone burglars to break in and do It's fascinating.
Here's number eight. The clid is bold every eight second,
listening to eight.

Speaker 6 (27:15):
Different bosses drawn on about mission statements.

Speaker 2 (27:20):
Well, it turns out that zooplankton are not really effective
at cleaning up after themselves or after you. And more accurately, zooplankton,
the tiny aquatic animals that graze on bacteria, are apparently
very ineffective at removing fecal micro organisms from water that's

(27:40):
contaminated with sewage. Somebody put these little guys into poo
filled water, and they didn't do their job. Challenge the
assumptions of researchers that these tiny animals might actually act
as natural cleaners by inactivating the harmful pathogens that exist
in fresh water and saltwater environments. They thought that they
would consume them, They thought they would neutralize them, potentially

(28:03):
reduce the risk to humans after water contamination. Obviously you
can't drink bad water, but they said the results told
a different story. Zoo Plankton did not do the job.

Speaker 1 (28:13):
Testicles have landed at number seven.

Speaker 2 (28:17):
The seventh son of the seventh son. We're on a
seven days with the government.

Speaker 5 (28:22):
Seven am, seven years of college done to drain.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
Seven seven, seven days and eighty one year old man
in Montana has been sentenced this week to six months
in federal prison for what you ask, what did this
poor man do well? He illegally used tissue and testicles
from large sheep to create hybrid sheep for captive trophy

(28:50):
hunting and Texas and Minnesota.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
He's been fined twenty thousand dollars ordered to make four
thousand dollars in payments to the Fish and Wildlife Foundation.
He's going to self report to a Bureau of Prisons
medical facility because he's eighty one. His attorney said, cloning
the giant Marco Polo sheep that was hunted in Kyrgyzstan

(29:13):
in twenty thirteen has ruined his client's life, his reputation,
and his family. And he says, I think this has
broken him.

Speaker 3 (29:20):
You know, if you.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
Took some tissue and testicles from a sheep and made
a new sheep. I wouldn't turn my back on you.
I'd still be your friend, Thank you.

Speaker 2 (29:29):
I'm mighty. I might even give you a big sheep
just as a gift for sticking.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
Around, just like a testicle in a jar.

Speaker 2 (29:35):
Sarah Brown is an attorney with the US Department of
Justice Testicle. She goes by the name stick in the Mud.
She had asked that this guy be sentenced to prison,
saying that his illegal breeding operation was widespread and involved
other states and endangered the health of other wildlife.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Blow it out your bottom.

Speaker 2 (29:52):
She said that crime involved forethought, it was complex, and
it involved many illegal acts. He owns this livestock ranch
that buys, sells, and breeds alternative livestock things like mountain
sheep and mountain goats and ungulates, mostly to sell off
to private hunting preserves where you go and basically shoot

(30:16):
an animal that's not allowed to run away from you.

Speaker 1 (30:18):
Okay, so I guess it's like creating animals cloning them
just so they can be hunted and killed. It sounds
pretty bad.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
Actually, it's specifically this kind of sheep. Marco Polo sheep
are the largest sheep in the world. They can weigh
three hundred pounds. They have curled horns that are up
to five feet long.

Speaker 7 (30:35):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
Massive they But like, who goes to one of these
hunting farms where there's no challenge in it? It's just
there's a.

Speaker 2 (30:43):
Lot of people. Really, Oh yeah, there's a lot of people.

Speaker 1 (30:46):
Because like, if I was hunting, I would want to
go out and the challenge of the hunt, right, not
just like here they are fish in a barrel, which.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
I think that's what his hunting camp was called, fish.

Speaker 5 (30:59):
In a barrel?

Speaker 1 (31:00):
Was it really?

Speaker 3 (31:01):
No?

Speaker 2 (31:01):
Oh, there's number six.

Speaker 4 (31:03):
I got six, number six.

Speaker 1 (31:06):
There's six more weeks of later a picture of me
and Rabbi and six drunken longshore.

Speaker 4 (31:10):
I would just dig you in a nursing home closer
to us.

Speaker 2 (31:12):
I don't have to go da drink another shix pack.
Understand this.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
You and I understand this because one of our takeaways
from Tiger King when we all went through that together
during the pandemic times, was you and I looked.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
At do you remember the year Tiger King?

Speaker 1 (31:32):
You and I looked at the amount of bologney that
he was able to secure for his cats, His lions
or whatever they were tigers, I guess, and you and
I looked at that expired bolooney and we thought, who
would throw out perfectly good blooney? Furthermore, Oscar Meyer baloney.

(31:54):
It doesn't go bad. Really, it's it's pretty much good forever.

Speaker 2 (31:59):
Isn't It's it's nuclear proof.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
Yeah, So, like, who is getting rid of their expired
bolone to be fed to the tigers?

Speaker 2 (32:11):
I don't know. This woman in Presidio, Texas, was fined
after officers found seven hundred pounds of boloney in her suitcase.
I get it illegal boloney? What makes it illegal?

Speaker 1 (32:24):
She was at a loaf of bologny and says you're illegal.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
She was crossing into the United States from Mexico, Mexico
and declared that she wasn't carrying anything other than a
cooked meal. Apparently, you cannot have boloney if you don't
declare it.

Speaker 1 (32:44):
But this is America.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
They found forty rolls of Mexican pork boloney, which is
illegal in the United States because of Mexico Mexican pork's
potential to spread foreign animal diseases to the pork industry,
which I think is weird.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
Because you're not feeding them to the pigs.

Speaker 2 (33:01):
And you're not going to take it to the bologne factory.
Say it again? I think I talked over you. What
did you say? There's number five?

Speaker 1 (33:12):
I have five rules.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
We begin bombing in five minutes.

Speaker 9 (33:15):
Five little lows the year five point five.

Speaker 12 (33:21):
Maid be a favorite, lose five pounds immediately.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
Oh boy, oh boy, that's right. Well, sexy clown, sexy which,
sexy pirate, sexy sex pot, they're all costumes that make
their way into our lives every Halloween, and now there's
going to be a sexy ozempic costume.

Speaker 2 (33:45):
Stupid is that she's dressed up as I guess the
what do you call that? The snatched But I don't know.
That's weird but it says some maglotide injection for single
patient use only. I guess she's supposed to look like
the actual visit shot.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
Oh interesting, that's mildly amusing. Thirty nine ninety five? Do
you want me to get you one?

Speaker 2 (34:11):
Is it one size fits all?

Speaker 1 (34:12):
It's a tank dress?

Speaker 2 (34:13):
What does that mean?

Speaker 1 (34:15):
Like a tank top but a dress?

Speaker 2 (34:17):
It only comes in three sizes?

Speaker 1 (34:19):
Well, you're a medium, do.

Speaker 2 (34:21):
You think so?

Speaker 1 (34:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (34:22):
I mean it looks fine on her, but.

Speaker 1 (34:24):
I think your breast would look great ment.

Speaker 2 (34:26):
And she's wearing red heels. I can't pull off red heels.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
I think you have white ones, right I did? Yeah,
here's number four or minute.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
It's probably on his fourth tranquilizer.

Speaker 2 (34:36):
By now, comment number four the fourth an this.

Speaker 5 (34:40):
Isn't the same world you left four.

Speaker 1 (34:41):
Years Bigfoot has re emerged this week. Where else but
TikTok Yeah. Content creator allegedly captured Bigfoot on video could
be the clearest footage of the much debated mythical beast.
It's got one point two million views because China, come
get us.

Speaker 2 (35:01):
The TikTok er said, I really think I caught a
fing Bigfoot on camera. Apparently the clip was shot in
the Parallel Forest in Lawdon, Oklahoma. It turns out all
of this was part of an ad campaign for the
Bigfoot head shop in Lawton. So this is the way
you're going to sell bongs is by pretending that you

(35:25):
caught a picture of Bigfoot in Oklahoma. The videographer wrote
that he'd been doing some sight seeing and enjoying the
day when he saw something in the distance and of
course it looks a little bit like the Blair Witch
Project sort of fake shakiness to the camera. And then
there's Bigfoot in somebody in a big Foot costume. It

(35:46):
looks like the guy from the Jacklinks commercials.

Speaker 1 (35:48):
Here's number three.

Speaker 2 (35:49):
Shall be the number that count, and the number of
the counting shall.

Speaker 3 (35:53):
Be three dead within three hours.

Speaker 5 (35:55):
Three security clearance level three.

Speaker 2 (35:58):
All three.

Speaker 4 (36:00):
I got all three of you guys for the rest
of your Nash was born live.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
After that three days, they both start to stink.

Speaker 12 (36:06):
Three.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
Okay, this is a great story. I love these. So
there's this guy who discovers that there's this old painting
in his home. It had been hidden away for decades
because his mother hated it. It belonged to his father,
who was a junk art dealer. Okay, and mom just
hated this thing. So it's in the it's in the
the the garage or wherever for a long time. They

(36:28):
just found out that it was a Picasso and it's
worth six point six million dollars.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
Wow. He despite the fact that it was signed by Picasso,
they apparently didn't believe it or they didn't see it.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
It is awful, but it looks just like a Picasso,
Like if you saw that, you'd be like, that's a
pacasta cannot miss. And I know very little about art
but that.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
But I know my Picasso. Yeah, six point six million
dollars worth. That's pretty crazy. Here's number two. What's going
on you?

Speaker 5 (36:57):
Two?

Speaker 1 (36:59):
One two?

Speaker 8 (37:02):
There's two sons and no women?

Speaker 1 (37:04):
Who ringing ingy? Well, you wanted your name to be Fonsie.

Speaker 2 (37:09):
Yeah, but that's because of a character that I knew
and admired in my childhood, mister Arthur Fonzarelli. Right, Yes,
I don't know anybody named marijuana.

Speaker 1 (37:21):
Certainly not marijuana Pepsi.

Speaker 2 (37:23):
Definitely not marijuana Pepsi Van Dick. This fifty two year
old woman says she'll never change her name. She doesn't
smoke the marijuana, and she says she doesn't even drink
fizzy drinks, let alone pepsi. Boring said the name would
take her around the world due to its originality. According
to mom, she has a PhD in Higher Education leadership.

(37:46):
She works at a Community College of Baltimore County. She's
a founder of Action as Empowerment Center for Change. Of course,
everybody assumed that her mom was a huge pothead or
pepsi fan, but she said that's not the way she
isn't a fan of pepsi marijuana, but she said, mom
just thought it was creative.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
No, mom has mental health problems.

Speaker 2 (38:09):
Well, the mom didn't even think about what this was
going to do to our kid going up. But she
appears to be perfectly successful. Although they have New York
Post articles written about your name, I don't know if
that means you're good or bad.

Speaker 1 (38:20):
Here's number one, number.

Speaker 2 (38:22):
One, we're number one.

Speaker 3 (38:24):
Then I decided to look out for number one.

Speaker 2 (38:27):
Are you the number one row?

Speaker 3 (38:29):
Number one?

Speaker 1 (38:30):
Number one, number one. I've read this story three times
and I still don't understand it.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
I think I get it.

Speaker 1 (38:37):
Sounds like dungeons and dragons, but with owls.

Speaker 2 (38:43):
Well, there are different around the world right now. There
are different treasure hunts that are going on, and some
of them been going on for decades. Like there was
a story about the treasure chest that was buried somewhere
near the Four Corners, remember that, and people were looking
for it. When social media came online, people started using

(39:04):
that to do some of these treasure hunts. A thirty
one year long treasure hunt that drew in thousands of
enthusiasts around France appeared to have come into an end.
This week, social media accounts said that they found the
golden owl. This was all based on a book of
riddles that was published thirty years ago, more than thirty
years ago, and if you solve eleven puzzles in the

(39:26):
book and a twelfth one that was hidden, you could
decipher the exact location of the token. Now, they said,
do not dig, They said, confirm that the golden hour
countermark was on earthed last night. This is yeah. Last night,
the message read, and a bunch of people said, it's
useless to go digging. Someone has found it and they

(39:48):
have solved the mystery.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
Apparently it's an owl made. It's a six pound ten
ounce golden owl. It also has fifteen pounds seven ounces
of silver with diamond chips on its face. They call
themselves Owlers and they would meet up and share tips
across France. Two hundred thousand players named owlers. We should

(40:11):
do some.

Speaker 2 (40:12):
Sort of treasure hunt and do a scavenger hunt.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
No, no, a scavenger hunt, but treasure hunt. What should
we bury? Do you want to bury something today on
the beach and then give people tips?

Speaker 2 (40:23):
Could we bury producer Matt No, no, not.

Speaker 1 (40:29):
We could bury a gas T shirt and then tell
people like, give them ideas on where it is in
the sand.

Speaker 2 (40:33):
Let's do it on Huntings and Beach.

Speaker 1 (40:35):
Yeah, okay, we're going to do it.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
Would just put it underneath one of these traffic cones
over here. You've been listening to the Gary and Shannon Show.
