Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Hey Shannon, Hey Gary. I actually have to disagree with
Shannon this time. I feel like he genuinely sounded happy
when he was talking about the Dodgers going to the
World Series. Usually when he's reporting the scores or talking
about the Dodgers in general, he sounds pretty miserable.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
So props for that. I can acknowledge when it's when
it's okay, it's okay.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Your voice to me, I feel like I know your
emotions through your voice, and.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
To me, you hate this.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
You hate any sort of success that the Dodgers have,
And that's okay. That's what it's called being a true fan,
right right, my dad, I say it all the time.
I learned to swear growing up with my father watching
Giants Dodgers games and the things that he would say
about Tommy Lesorda, I mean, very colorful, very creative.
Speaker 4 (00:59):
But that's what being a fan is all about. You
should just own it. You hate the Dodgers in the
World Series.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
The fact that is the Dodgers Yankees too to bought
and sold for teams.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
But I also acknowledge that I want to I mean,
I want to watch it. I'm sure you do.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
You love baseball, but that's wanting to watch it and
hating them is okay.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Both things can be true.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
A couple quick things before we get into our pch store.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
Her name is Kamala Harris, not she, did you say?
You guys have been doing this for the past two
or three weeks. You can't say her name. You hate
her so much. You can say Trump all day long,
even President Trump. Because that you cannot say Kamala Harris.
Stop saying she.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
That to me is one of those examples of people
here what they want to hear.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
I don't know if that's true, but I'll be cognizant
of it. I haven't noticed us doing that. I feel
like I say Kamala all the time. I don't say
Kamala Harris, and I did notice that I don't ever
say Kamala Harris. But I also don't say Donald Trump.
I call him Trump, and I call her a Kamala.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
And I think that.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
That's like an advantage for Kamala Harris that people refer
to her in her first name only.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Is that a Hillary hangover. I mean that in a
serious question, like just we're using the first name for
the women and we're not using I didn't.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Do that with Nicki Haley. We called her Nicki Haley.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
I mean, I think it's pretty damn cool if you
can go by one name, look at Cher, look at Madonna.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Well that's intentional that they go by one name.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, but when your first name Carrie, you know exactly
who you're talking about, that's pretty good.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
We last week saw the memorial for the four Pepperdine
students who were killed on PCH. Sixty one people have
been killed along that stretch of highway in recent years.
The tragic deaths of Nima Ralston, Peyton Stewart, Asha Weir,
and Deslin Williams brought the number of fatal to sixty
(03:01):
one in just the last fifteen years, and there is
a push to try to do something to increase the
safety along PCH. As a result of that.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
So CHP officers were added to enforcement efforts off le Vague,
The governor approved speed cameras, Caltrans expedited road improvements, a
city launched a public safety campaign, But people say that
is not enough. Damien Kevitt is a member of the
Local Coalition Fixed pch founder of the nonprofit Streets Are
(03:35):
for Everyone.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
He said, dead Man's Curve.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
There where those four students were run down, is the
area where it's most dense. It's the highest number of pedestrian, cyclist, people, tourists,
and there's a high degree of homes commercial area where
there shouldn't be a speed limit of forty five miles
an hour.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Slow it down.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
According to the report from the Malibu Lost Hills Station
for the La County Sheriff's Department, law enforcement issued twice
as many speeding tickets this year as they did last
year at this point, but it only made a difference
in one crash. There was only one fewer crash at
the halfway point of twenty four compared to twenty twenty three.
(04:15):
Most of those crashes, of course, speed related, so there's
a short term win. Governor Gavenusom did sign Senate Bill
twelve ninety seven into law puts Malibu in a pilot
program that would allow them to install up to five
automated cameras to detect and find speeding drivers. So are
(04:37):
you sing?
Speaker 4 (04:38):
The national anthem is on.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Is this a practice or is it on tape?
Speaker 4 (04:43):
It's a practice, and every time they do it.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
They practice it about nine hundred times before the game,
all day, and I stand up each and every time.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
I'm standing too. Do you know who it is that's singing?
Speaker 4 (04:59):
It's a one two three.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Well, there's like six students up on this stage, but
there's just the one girl singing. They look young. A
couple sections are actually filled with what appeared to be
high school students. I don't know who these people are.
I don't know what the purpose is. Oh, it's the
Arizona Department of Education. It's like this is like a
(05:23):
union boondoggle.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
Take the day off, Let's let her finish strong.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Oh right, we don't really need to do this. It's
gonna happen like sixteen times during the show.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Well, maybe we do it every time. I should have
laughed that loud.
Speaker 6 (05:54):
Here you go, all right, as soon as my family
here's this.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Don't know exactly who I am.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Arnold Palmer, honored Palmer, that's right, Arnold Palmer.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
What you say close, Honold Palmer.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
It's awful, it's together. Yeah, you know you have to eat, Yes,
you have to pause, you have to pause, it's awful. Okay.
So there's all these narratives out there, right.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Yahoo Finance did an article about millennials and how they're
doing financially. If you listen to all the narratives, you
think that these people are struggling with student debt, the
wages aren't high enough, inflation, high expenses, you can't afford
to live anywhere.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
However, millennials, people.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Born between nineteen eighty one and ninety six, they say now,
are on average wealthier than their parents were at the
same age. And to me, the reason is glaring. It
is obvious, and it is the fact that they're not
having children. Our parents had kids in their twenties, like
you know what I mean. Like back then, you know,
Millennials' parents were making babies in their in their earning years,
(07:01):
things were very thin. And millennials are waiting till they're
late thirties to have kids, and so they're making more
money quicker because they don't have that expense and that
burden's and that joy, that's the joy.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Don't forget the joy. That is definitely part of it.
Although I don't think of my life now, granted, if
I look back at the twenty five years that I've
been a parent. I know I've spent money on them,
but I don't And part of why, or part of
why I don't accept that entirely, is because I'm blind
to it. I don't understand how much money I have
(07:35):
spent on my own kids. And I'll acknowledge that.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
But there's ay, it's also childcare.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
You know, you had a household where your wife was
able to stay home, right, childcare is a huge expense.
I mean from my friends that have kids, I mean
it's insane. Yeah, thousands and thousands of dollars a year.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Yeah, And that's what I mean is I don't know.
I would not be able to separate out what I
paid for twenty five years of kids, Like I just
it's hard for me to wrap my head around or
even begin to figure out how I would buy How
I would you know, do the book keeping on that
to figure out how much I spent on kids, you know,
Christmas gifts and that sort of stuff. That would be easier,
(08:16):
but not.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Just what you spent on kids. It's did your job?
Can you grow your career when you have kids? A
lot of the answer is no.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
There did I buy a two bedroom house or a
one bedroom you know, apartment or something like that. I mean,
all of that stuff goes into it, so it's hard
to pull it apart. But they also said an analysis
from the Saint Louis fed early this year, millennials and
older members of gen Z have about twenty five percent
more wealth than previous generations did at the same age.
(08:46):
So for older millennials, for example, born in the eighties,
the median household net worth rose to one hundred and
thirty thousand in twenty twenty two. The median wealth more
than quadrupled to forty one thousand for those that were
born in the nineties. And they talk about stocks, mutual
funds have all played a big role in all of this,
(09:06):
but also employees made larger contributions to the retirement accounts
earlier in their careers. And when you figure that part
of it out, four oh one k's specifically that type
of government approved tax deferred, but employee benefited or employee
(09:26):
paid for those weren't even legalized again I think until
the late seventies. So that would make sense that you
and I grew up in a time when everyone was
expected to have a four oh one k everybody. When
you go in and apply for a job, one of
the perks that they're going to offer you is a
four to oh one K.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Well, they say, still millennials feel uneasy that they're calling
it phantom wealth. The concept of phantom wealth. There's a
psychological disconnect between having wealth on paper and feeling financially secure,
like real estate retirement account. They don't really see them,
it doesn't really feel real. They're not easily assessed or
spent in the short term. So that's why millennials feel uneasy.
(10:07):
I say, no, it's because they're anxious. It's because they're
not having kids and they have no concern other than themselves,
and that's why they feel uneasy.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
That's like, I like that theory. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
I mean it's true when you have something to take
care of, you forget about yourself pretty quickly, and any
sort of anxiety or uncomfortability you may be feeling, you
have to take care of something else. And if you're
not having those kids and you're just in the world
of yourself, in your own head, and you're making money,
but you're still uneasy and there's people around you screaming,
is it anxiety?
Speaker 4 (10:40):
That's what the effect is going to.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Be well, and to combine kind of both of those
points they go The Wall Street Journal goes so far
as to say, it's not clear if millennials are are
better off. I mean, yes, they may have more money,
more wealth, even phantom wealth, but that the cost of living, healthcare, childcare,
like you mentioned, all of that stuff is higher now
than it was even thirty years ago, So all possibility.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
I mean, I spent like six minutes figuring out what
lipstick color I was going to wear today if I
had a kid. Do you think I'd spend that kind
of time you spraying about it?
Speaker 3 (11:13):
Six minutes and that's the color you chose. Now, nobody
gets that joke. Only you do, because I can't even
see you, I know. The lawsuit against Didty, this one
was the one that was filed by a music producer,
Rodney Jones. In the lawsuit, it says that it was
required all employees, from the butler, the chef to the
(11:35):
housekeepers walk around with a pouch or a fanny pack
filled with cocaine, GHB, ecstasy, marijuana, gummies and tucci.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
This pink lock all these people up.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Yeah, I know, you have to have a job and
put food on the table. But there are options other
than walking around with fanny packs full of date rape
drugs for men to rape people that have been trafficked
into a ditty mansion. There are so many people, This
network was so vast around him, so many people looking
the other way for the almighty dollar.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
It's weird. It's weird that we continue to see so
many people caught up in all of this without having
ever done anything we told you about. Obviously, November fifth
is upcoming election day, fifteen days away. As of last Monday,
candidate for La County DA, Nathan Hofkman, has raised more
(12:32):
than ten million dollars in campaign donations. George Gascone ten
percent of that. He has just over one million, compared
to four years ago at this time when he was
well over ten I think he's over twelve million at
this time. Everybody. The whatever support system George Gascone had
(12:52):
four years ago has absolutely crumbled under his feet.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
We told you Friday during the Nuggets out the complete
power outage outage of the entire island nation of Cuba. Well,
now you can mix in a hurricane Oscar Category one
hurricane made landfall in eastern Cuba last night amid a
power blackout.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Boy, this is looking bad. The electrical grid collapse for
the fourth time in forty eight hours. The government in
Cuba has been trying to restore power to these residents
who have already suffered from food shortages, medicine shortages, fuel shortages.
Whatever they're doing there in Cuba, communism is not working. Apparently,
(13:39):
they canceled school. I read today that they canceled another day.
So the school has been canceled through Thursday, which is
a pretty rare move in Cuba, apparently because of the hurricane,
because of the ongoing energy crisis, and they've said that
only essential government workers should show up to work today.
The I don't even know where you begin. The power
(14:01):
crisis has existed in Cuba for a long time and
now they're still trying to get the lights back on.
They did restore power, they said, to about a fifth
of the ten million people, but the national grid collapse
twice in twenty four hours. Then the hurricane comes on,
it collapses two more times. Friday afternoon, the largest power
(14:23):
plant in Cuba on Cuba in Cuba shut down and
the grid collapsed once again. On Saturday morning. They say
they are making progress and restoring power, but every time
they get two steps forward, they take three steps back.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Will you mix in major flash flooding, mud slides, rock slides,
there there is an inability to respond to those with
no power, obviously. I mean that's a humanitarian crisis.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
Period.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
There's one thing to be said about life in the
Caribbean like this, where I guess you could say it's
thankful that it's not a cold weather a cold weather
area where they're not having power. I mean, if you
remember the in Texas when the power went out in
that February cold snap that they had and people were
literally freezing in their homes. This is very uncomfortable, but
(15:14):
it's not as life threatening. I mean, heat obviously brings
with it its own dangers, but it's less likely that
someone in Cuba's going to die from heat exposure than somebody,
weirdly in Texas was going to die from cold. But
it is not getting easier. There are a couple stories
anecdotes from people about having to line up to buy
bread from bakeries that are cooking baking their bread the
(15:39):
old fashioned way, as opposed to gas ovens or even
electric ovens. They're using just the old wood fire and
cold fired stoves that they've got. The failure of that
plant was just the latest of a series of problems
with energy distribution where it's already been. They already restrict
when you can get electricity. They rotate, you know, four
(16:00):
hours on here and then turn it off and turn
it on for four hours in another part of the island. Invite,
you know, just and on and on.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
I have an update from the stadium. That was a
real national anthem, because that was an event for local
area schools. The Department of Education put it on. It
was kind of like a kind.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
Of a pep talk.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
About going through high school and things like that, and
so it was kind of like an assembly in the stadium,
and so that was there. That was not a rehearsal
of the national anthem. That was a real assembly national anthem.
So I'm glad that we all paid it the respect
that it's show. It's so deserved.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
Most of the respect it deserved most. I mean we
were standing, but I.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
We were kind of you have your hand on your heart?
Speaker 3 (16:48):
No, is that a requirement?
Speaker 4 (16:52):
I think?
Speaker 3 (16:52):
So? I mean I'll take if I was wearing a hat,
I would take my hat off and I would hold it.
But I I don't know if it's a requirement for
me to put my hand over my head heart during
the nationally.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
I love the country of America.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
No, no, I'm not saying it is is tradition, But I
don't know if.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
If you want to go live in Canada, go live
in Canada.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
If I'm saying the pledge of allegiance, yes, I put
my hand over my heart and say the Pledge of allegiance.
But I don't know at least there. Hey, you have
all of the streaming services, right, I mean, for the
most part.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
I'm embarrassed to say probably.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
Yes, You've got the Netflixes and the Amazons and things
like that. Here's a new I would argue, a lower
tiered streaming service you might want to sign up for
next week, next month. Sorry. Chick fil A is planning
to launch a new app with animated shows, podcast games,
recipes and ebooks.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Will it be about God?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
No, It'll be about Chicken.
Speaker 4 (17:45):
I'm pretty sure God's going to be weaved in there.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Last year. Last year, Chick fil A held the spot
of the third biggest US restaurant chain by sales. The
only two restaurant chains bigger than Chick fil A money wise,
Starbucks and McDonald's, despite the fact that they don't have
I don't know, sixty percent of the location fifty percent
(18:08):
of the locations that Starbucks and McDonald's have. So they've
been selling all kinds of branded merchandise. They have a
sleeping bag now that you can buy that resembles their
sandwich packaging. They created a spin off brand.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
But it's going to be a lot of family friendly
Christian programming. I'm reading on the Christianpost dot com.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Yeah, you can sign up for it.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Not really my thing.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
Okay, just don't say no right away.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
And the other thing is, if you're watching Chick fil
A streaming, what are you thinking about the entire time?
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Well, now that's the point of it. That's what everything's
going to be brought to you by Chick fil A
Sauce or something like that. Oh my goodness, all right,
CBS finally listened to the show. They finally admitted that
they edited the Kamala Harris interview, but then didn't release
the transcript. How does this statement make any sense unless
(19:04):
you release a transcript.
Speaker 7 (19:05):
Good morning Gary, Good morning Shannon. Ay, this is Frank again,
you're bad ass truck driver. Hey, I'm so tired right
here about them Dodgers me being a Mets fan. Yeah,
it's okay. You don't want to know why. You guess
my backup keeen is the Yankees, So let's go Yankees.
That's right, And Shannon, sorry about them. Forty nine and
I've lost up there in San Francisco by hey a,
(19:26):
you know, better luck next week.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Yeah, they're not gonna have better luck next week. That
is a broken team. I mean, in more ways than one.
The aura that the forty nine ers had. And this
is why it makes such a big This is why
when you get to the super Bowl, when you get that,
it's hard to reach the super Bowl.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
It's impossible.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
When you get there, you have to capitalize, especially if
you're there twice within five years. You gotta get it
done when you reach that pinnacle because it is hard
to keep a team intact. And forty nine ers are injured,
they're broken, the spirits broken. Jerry Rice said, if that
was back when I played, we would have been taking
shots at each other on the sideline. The chemistry is off.
(20:09):
The Chiefs are the ugliest undefeated team. I've ever seen.
And I'm not saying that because I'm sore over losing
to them in the Super Bowl and the Chargers losing
to them so often. It's because they are not fun
to watch. They are sloppy, they're slow, they're struggling, and
they're still undefeated. The best team in football and that's
(20:29):
what you got. Come on, I mean, Vikings are much
more fun to watch. The Ravings are much more fun
to watch. Sorry, what were we talking about?
Speaker 4 (20:40):
Lost time?
Speaker 3 (20:41):
It's going to go.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
You're like and then the NFC.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
North Hey Gary Shannon Beck.
Speaker 8 (20:49):
In the late eighties early nineties, when I was still
using cocaine, not very often, but every time we got
a shipment of cocaine that had a pink.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
Or yellow hue to it is heroin.
Speaker 8 (21:09):
That was the extra good stuff.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
Ah really No, that meant that you're cocaine had heroin
in it.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Well that's the possibility, right, maybe that's what made it
the good stuff.
Speaker 4 (21:20):
No that's not Nope, No that's not good care no
a whole.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
On a second, I don't mean good like no, no,
objectively like no, Why I would not say that, but
have a.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Cores light or a glass of chardonnay and call it
a day. Leave the powders alone.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
I haven't had a Coors Light in a long time. Really, yeah,
trying to remember.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
Probably at my house if you want to come over.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Is it cold?
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Are the mountains or you're damn right? Those mountains are blue?
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Right? Well, you're not even home, so maybe I'll just
go grab.
Speaker 4 (21:48):
Some it's the best time to come over.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
Say that against quietest. Kamala Harris's interview with sixty Minutes
was edited to make her answer more succinct. We knew that,
we knew that CBS and admitted that finally they've been
embroiled in this kind of scandal, bias, scandal, manipulation, scaled,
whatever word you want to use, because they edited a
clip from an interview with the vice president, and the
(22:14):
accusation is that they tried to make her look more competent.
And the way that they explained it, what okay, just
the they did an interview with sixty Minutes that was
going to air in its entirety on Monday night a
couple of weekends ago.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
But in this Sunday they based the Nation or what
have you. They gave a little blurb, a little clip
a little teaser, and in that teaser, Kamala Harris is
answering question about Israel and about our support and where
we think this is headed. And then when it aired
on Monday night, in entirety, it was a completely different answer.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
So the specific statement from CBS sixty minutes gave it
a quote. Sixty minutes gave an excerpt of our interview
to face the nation that you used a longer section
of her answer than that on sixty minutes, same question,
same answer, but a different portion of the response. When
we added any interview, whether a politician, an athlete, or
movie star, we strive to be clear, accurate, and on point.
(23:12):
The portion of her answer on sixty minutes was more succinct,
which allows time for other subjects in a wide ranging,
twenty one minute long segment, I will say they weren't
talking about the price of carrots. They were talking about
the potential for the Middle East to blow up into
World War III.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
Let me play conspiracy theorist, my new favorite role to play.
If that was the case, then why in the super
abbreviated teaser was the answer not the most succinct If
they wanted it to be succinct. Why in a twenty
(23:48):
second teaser would they have the rambling answer and not
it already edited. Unless and here's where the conspiracy comes in.
Unless everyone saw that clip of her in Kamala Harris World,
Democratic World, and they said, oh hell no, the horn
immediately and the pressure was so much for CBS and
(24:11):
so much was writing on fixing that in terms of
getting future interviews or what have you, or the democracy
that we have in this country that they changed.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Manifest a suckul and Chinese meal, Mike, your hands off,
mytt My question is why would CBS balk at the
idea of just releasing the transcript. You put out this
statement and you say we're going to prove it. This
(24:45):
is the transcript of the question, or this is the
transcript of the full interview.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
I guess to play devil's advocate. They don't want to
negotiate with terrorists. They don't want to capitulate to the naysayers,
the conspiracy theorists.
Speaker 6 (24:58):
Okay, but but they're But then, the reputation of arguably
one of the great legacy media outlets in our country's
history has now got a giant black eye on it.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
Right, and listen. I know plenty of people who support
Kamala Harris who say this looks really bad for CBS,
that they acknowledge this should never have happened. In that
you can edit those things we talked about that last week.
You can edit. That's part of what journalism is is
trying to figure out which of these answers makes the
most sense, especially if you're dealing with time constraints for
(25:34):
whatever reason. But then admit that you have to be
able to back up your answers. You have to back
up and show your work as to why you did that.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Our CBS news just knows what we all know. Nobody's
really paying that much attention, are they. You're focused on
Donald Trump's order at McDonald's Chick fil A's streaming content.
Speaker 4 (25:59):
What is your order? McDonald's.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Uh, it's been a while.
Speaker 4 (26:04):
I did a big mac guy.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
I am a big mac guy. Yeah. I used to
do the fish filet or file of fish, but I
have not done that in a long time.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
Is that just like a Is that just like a
big fish stick like a cocod or something.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Cost I think it's probably various white fishes that have
been camal amalgamated camalcamated could put into one compound and
then squished through something to.
Speaker 4 (26:34):
What's a sauce on that? Is it like a tartar sauce?
That sounds delicious.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
My mother used to always get file fish, so I
of course wanted nothing to do with that, of course,
But yeah, I'm a I'm a burger, just the normal burger,
small fry. Sometimes I'll do small fry, communist small fry.
Speaker 4 (26:59):
I get the small fry. I like, I don't have
envelope it is yeah and uh.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
And then sometimes though, I will get into a box
of chicken nuggets and and just eat more barbecue sauce
than God intended for me to eat.
Speaker 4 (27:17):
I do like that tangy barbecue sauce.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
Man, it becomes a vehicle for the sauce.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
Oh man, it's so good. And then they started about meats.
Why I know me too.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
I'm actually starving right now, and I ate a piece
of meat last night. But but uh, I need fresh
meats today. I need new meats, and I'm planning it.
I was talking to Jacob off the air. I was
going through the menu of the foods they have here.
They've got like a fried chicken sandwich, but instead of
(27:50):
a bun, it's two waffles and they've got some sauces
on that chicken.
Speaker 4 (27:55):
And Jacob and I both.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Decided we had diabetes after eating masks from eating the
main But they also do a pretzel dog here, and
then they also do a meatball HOGI on a stick,
where like the bread is wrapped in an s shape
around two meatballs and it's all in a stick and
it comes with marin aisas.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
That sounds amazing.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
I was a farmer's market on Saturday and passed by
a place that was making meatball sandwiches and it was
it smelled so good.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
I love a meatball sandwich like I'll get that at Subway,
even the trash sandwich shops, of all sandwich shops. I mean,
it's fine for what it is, but it's not a
real deli. Everyone knows that this mess, but they do. Yeah,
but they do a nice meatball sandwich.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
All right, campaign full swing. Now, I gotta go find
some food. We'll get into swamp watch when we come
back to Gary and Shannon. You've been listening to The
Gary and Shannon Show. You can always hear us live
on KFI AM six forty nine am. To one pm
every Monday through Friday, and anytime on demand on the
iHeartRadio Lab
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Hey Shannon, Hey Gary. I actually have to disagree with
Shannon this time. I feel like he genuinely sounded happy
when he was talking about the Dodgers going to the
World Series. Usually when he's reporting the scores or talking
about the Dodgers in general, he sounds pretty miserable.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
So props for that. I can acknowledge when it's when
it's okay, it's okay.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Your voice to me, I feel like I know your
emotions through your voice, and.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
To me, you hate this.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
You hate any sort of success that the Dodgers have,
And that's okay. That's what it's called being a true fan,
right right, my dad, I say it all the time.
I learned to swear growing up with my father watching
Giants Dodgers games and the things that he would say
about Tommy Lesorda, I mean, very colorful, very creative.
Speaker 4 (00:59):
But that's what being a fan is all about. You
should just own it. You hate the Dodgers in the
World Series.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
The fact that is the Dodgers Yankees too to bought
and sold for teams.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
But I also acknowledge that I want to I mean,
I want to watch it. I'm sure you do.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
You love baseball, but that's wanting to watch it and
hating them is okay.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Both things can be true.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
A couple quick things before we get into our pch store.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
Her name is Kamala Harris, not she, did you say?
You guys have been doing this for the past two
or three weeks. You can't say her name. You hate
her so much. You can say Trump all day long,
even President Trump. Because that you cannot say Kamala Harris.
Stop saying she.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
That to me is one of those examples of people
here what they want to hear.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
I don't know if that's true, but I'll be cognizant
of it. I haven't noticed us doing that. I feel
like I say Kamala all the time. I don't say
Kamala Harris, and I did notice that I don't ever
say Kamala Harris. But I also don't say Donald Trump.
I call him Trump, and I call her a Kamala.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
And I think that.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
That's like an advantage for Kamala Harris that people refer
to her in her first name only.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Is that a Hillary hangover. I mean that in a
serious question, like just we're using the first name for
the women and we're not using I didn't.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Do that with Nicki Haley. We called her Nicki Haley.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
I mean, I think it's pretty damn cool if you
can go by one name, look at Cher, look at Madonna.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Well that's intentional that they go by one name.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, but when your first name Carrie, you know exactly
who you're talking about, that's pretty good.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
We last week saw the memorial for the four Pepperdine
students who were killed on PCH. Sixty one people have
been killed along that stretch of highway in recent years.
The tragic deaths of Nima Ralston, Peyton Stewart, Asha Weir,
and Deslin Williams brought the number of fatal to sixty
(03:01):
one in just the last fifteen years, and there is
a push to try to do something to increase the
safety along PCH. As a result of that.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
So CHP officers were added to enforcement efforts off le Vague,
The governor approved speed cameras, Caltrans expedited road improvements, a
city launched a public safety campaign, But people say that
is not enough. Damien Kevitt is a member of the
Local Coalition Fixed pch founder of the nonprofit Streets Are
(03:35):
for Everyone.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
He said, dead Man's Curve.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
There where those four students were run down, is the
area where it's most dense. It's the highest number of pedestrian, cyclist, people, tourists,
and there's a high degree of homes commercial area where
there shouldn't be a speed limit of forty five miles
an hour.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Slow it down.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
According to the report from the Malibu Lost Hills Station
for the La County Sheriff's Department, law enforcement issued twice
as many speeding tickets this year as they did last
year at this point, but it only made a difference
in one crash. There was only one fewer crash at
the halfway point of twenty four compared to twenty twenty three.
(04:15):
Most of those crashes, of course, speed related, so there's
a short term win. Governor Gavenusom did sign Senate Bill
twelve ninety seven into law puts Malibu in a pilot
program that would allow them to install up to five
automated cameras to detect and find speeding drivers. So are
(04:37):
you sing?
Speaker 4 (04:38):
The national anthem is on.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Is this a practice or is it on tape?
Speaker 4 (04:43):
It's a practice, and every time they do it.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
They practice it about nine hundred times before the game,
all day, and I stand up each and every time.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
I'm standing too. Do you know who it is that's singing?
Speaker 4 (04:59):
It's a one two three.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Well, there's like six students up on this stage, but
there's just the one girl singing. They look young. A
couple sections are actually filled with what appeared to be
high school students. I don't know who these people are.
I don't know what the purpose is. Oh, it's the
Arizona Department of Education. It's like this is like a
(05:23):
union boondoggle.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
Take the day off, Let's let her finish strong.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Oh right, we don't really need to do this. It's
gonna happen like sixteen times during the show.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Well, maybe we do it every time. I should have
laughed that loud.
Speaker 6 (05:54):
Here you go, all right, as soon as my family
here's this.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Don't know exactly who I am.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Arnold Palmer, honored Palmer, that's right, Arnold Palmer.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
What you say close, Honold Palmer.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
It's awful, it's together. Yeah, you know you have to eat, Yes,
you have to pause, you have to pause, it's awful. Okay.
So there's all these narratives out there, right.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Yahoo Finance did an article about millennials and how they're
doing financially. If you listen to all the narratives, you
think that these people are struggling with student debt, the
wages aren't high enough, inflation, high expenses, you can't afford
to live anywhere.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
However, millennials, people.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Born between nineteen eighty one and ninety six, they say now,
are on average wealthier than their parents were at the
same age. And to me, the reason is glaring. It
is obvious, and it is the fact that they're not
having children. Our parents had kids in their twenties, like
you know what I mean. Like back then, you know,
Millennials' parents were making babies in their in their earning years,
(07:01):
things were very thin. And millennials are waiting till they're
late thirties to have kids, and so they're making more
money quicker because they don't have that expense and that
burden's and that joy, that's the joy.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Don't forget the joy. That is definitely part of it.
Although I don't think of my life now, granted, if
I look back at the twenty five years that I've
been a parent. I know I've spent money on them,
but I don't And part of why, or part of
why I don't accept that entirely, is because I'm blind
to it. I don't understand how much money I have
(07:35):
spent on my own kids. And I'll acknowledge that.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
But there's ay, it's also childcare.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
You know, you had a household where your wife was
able to stay home, right, childcare is a huge expense.
I mean from my friends that have kids, I mean
it's insane. Yeah, thousands and thousands of dollars a year.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Yeah, And that's what I mean is I don't know.
I would not be able to separate out what I
paid for twenty five years of kids, Like I just
it's hard for me to wrap my head around or
even begin to figure out how I would buy How
I would you know, do the book keeping on that
to figure out how much I spent on kids, you know,
Christmas gifts and that sort of stuff. That would be easier,
(08:16):
but not.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Just what you spent on kids. It's did your job?
Can you grow your career when you have kids? A
lot of the answer is no.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
There did I buy a two bedroom house or a
one bedroom you know, apartment or something like that. I mean,
all of that stuff goes into it, so it's hard
to pull it apart. But they also said an analysis
from the Saint Louis fed early this year, millennials and
older members of gen Z have about twenty five percent
more wealth than previous generations did at the same age.
(08:46):
So for older millennials, for example, born in the eighties,
the median household net worth rose to one hundred and
thirty thousand in twenty twenty two. The median wealth more
than quadrupled to forty one thousand for those that were
born in the nineties. And they talk about stocks, mutual
funds have all played a big role in all of this,
(09:06):
but also employees made larger contributions to the retirement accounts
earlier in their careers. And when you figure that part
of it out, four oh one k's specifically that type
of government approved tax deferred, but employee benefited or employee
(09:26):
paid for those weren't even legalized again I think until
the late seventies. So that would make sense that you
and I grew up in a time when everyone was
expected to have a four oh one k everybody. When
you go in and apply for a job, one of
the perks that they're going to offer you is a
four to oh one K.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Well, they say, still millennials feel uneasy that they're calling
it phantom wealth. The concept of phantom wealth. There's a
psychological disconnect between having wealth on paper and feeling financially secure,
like real estate retirement account. They don't really see them,
it doesn't really feel real. They're not easily assessed or
spent in the short term. So that's why millennials feel uneasy.
(10:07):
I say, no, it's because they're anxious. It's because they're
not having kids and they have no concern other than themselves,
and that's why they feel uneasy.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
That's like, I like that theory. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
I mean it's true when you have something to take
care of, you forget about yourself pretty quickly, and any
sort of anxiety or uncomfortability you may be feeling, you
have to take care of something else. And if you're
not having those kids and you're just in the world
of yourself, in your own head, and you're making money,
but you're still uneasy and there's people around you screaming,
is it anxiety?
Speaker 4 (10:40):
That's what the effect is going to.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Be well, and to combine kind of both of those
points they go The Wall Street Journal goes so far
as to say, it's not clear if millennials are are
better off. I mean, yes, they may have more money,
more wealth, even phantom wealth, but that the cost of living, healthcare, childcare,
like you mentioned, all of that stuff is higher now
than it was even thirty years ago, So all possibility.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
I mean, I spent like six minutes figuring out what
lipstick color I was going to wear today if I
had a kid. Do you think I'd spend that kind
of time you spraying about it?
Speaker 3 (11:13):
Six minutes and that's the color you chose. Now, nobody
gets that joke. Only you do, because I can't even
see you, I know. The lawsuit against Didty, this one
was the one that was filed by a music producer,
Rodney Jones. In the lawsuit, it says that it was
required all employees, from the butler, the chef to the
(11:35):
housekeepers walk around with a pouch or a fanny pack
filled with cocaine, GHB, ecstasy, marijuana, gummies and tucci.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
This pink lock all these people up.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Yeah, I know, you have to have a job and
put food on the table. But there are options other
than walking around with fanny packs full of date rape
drugs for men to rape people that have been trafficked
into a ditty mansion. There are so many people, This
network was so vast around him, so many people looking
the other way for the almighty dollar.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
It's weird. It's weird that we continue to see so
many people caught up in all of this without having
ever done anything we told you about. Obviously, November fifth
is upcoming election day, fifteen days away. As of last Monday,
candidate for La County DA, Nathan Hofkman, has raised more
(12:32):
than ten million dollars in campaign donations. George Gascone ten
percent of that. He has just over one million, compared
to four years ago at this time when he was
well over ten I think he's over twelve million at
this time. Everybody. The whatever support system George Gascone had
(12:52):
four years ago has absolutely crumbled under his feet.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
We told you Friday during the Nuggets out the complete
power outage outage of the entire island nation of Cuba. Well,
now you can mix in a hurricane Oscar Category one
hurricane made landfall in eastern Cuba last night amid a
power blackout.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Boy, this is looking bad. The electrical grid collapse for
the fourth time in forty eight hours. The government in
Cuba has been trying to restore power to these residents
who have already suffered from food shortages, medicine shortages, fuel shortages.
Whatever they're doing there in Cuba, communism is not working. Apparently,
(13:39):
they canceled school. I read today that they canceled another day.
So the school has been canceled through Thursday, which is
a pretty rare move in Cuba, apparently because of the hurricane,
because of the ongoing energy crisis, and they've said that
only essential government workers should show up to work today.
The I don't even know where you begin. The power
(14:01):
crisis has existed in Cuba for a long time and
now they're still trying to get the lights back on.
They did restore power, they said, to about a fifth
of the ten million people, but the national grid collapse
twice in twenty four hours. Then the hurricane comes on,
it collapses two more times. Friday afternoon, the largest power
(14:23):
plant in Cuba on Cuba in Cuba shut down and
the grid collapsed once again. On Saturday morning. They say
they are making progress and restoring power, but every time
they get two steps forward, they take three steps back.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Will you mix in major flash flooding, mud slides, rock slides,
there there is an inability to respond to those with
no power, obviously. I mean that's a humanitarian crisis.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
Period.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
There's one thing to be said about life in the
Caribbean like this, where I guess you could say it's
thankful that it's not a cold weather a cold weather
area where they're not having power. I mean, if you
remember the in Texas when the power went out in
that February cold snap that they had and people were
literally freezing in their homes. This is very uncomfortable, but
(15:14):
it's not as life threatening. I mean, heat obviously brings
with it its own dangers, but it's less likely that
someone in Cuba's going to die from heat exposure than somebody,
weirdly in Texas was going to die from cold. But
it is not getting easier. There are a couple stories
anecdotes from people about having to line up to buy
bread from bakeries that are cooking baking their bread the
(15:39):
old fashioned way, as opposed to gas ovens or even
electric ovens. They're using just the old wood fire and
cold fired stoves that they've got. The failure of that
plant was just the latest of a series of problems
with energy distribution where it's already been. They already restrict
when you can get electricity. They rotate, you know, four
(16:00):
hours on here and then turn it off and turn
it on for four hours in another part of the island. Invite,
you know, just and on and on.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
I have an update from the stadium. That was a
real national anthem, because that was an event for local
area schools. The Department of Education put it on. It
was kind of like a kind.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
Of a pep talk.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
About going through high school and things like that, and
so it was kind of like an assembly in the stadium,
and so that was there. That was not a rehearsal
of the national anthem. That was a real assembly national anthem.
So I'm glad that we all paid it the respect
that it's show. It's so deserved.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
Most of the respect it deserved most. I mean we
were standing, but I.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
We were kind of you have your hand on your heart?
Speaker 3 (16:48):
No, is that a requirement?
Speaker 4 (16:52):
I think?
Speaker 3 (16:52):
So? I mean I'll take if I was wearing a hat,
I would take my hat off and I would hold it.
But I I don't know if it's a requirement for
me to put my hand over my head heart during
the nationally.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
I love the country of America.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
No, no, I'm not saying it is is tradition, But I
don't know if.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
If you want to go live in Canada, go live
in Canada.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
If I'm saying the pledge of allegiance, yes, I put
my hand over my heart and say the Pledge of allegiance.
But I don't know at least there. Hey, you have
all of the streaming services, right, I mean, for the
most part.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
I'm embarrassed to say probably.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
Yes, You've got the Netflixes and the Amazons and things
like that. Here's a new I would argue, a lower
tiered streaming service you might want to sign up for
next week, next month. Sorry. Chick fil A is planning
to launch a new app with animated shows, podcast games,
recipes and ebooks.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Will it be about God?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
No, It'll be about Chicken.
Speaker 4 (17:45):
I'm pretty sure God's going to be weaved in there.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Last year. Last year, Chick fil A held the spot
of the third biggest US restaurant chain by sales. The
only two restaurant chains bigger than Chick fil A money wise,
Starbucks and McDonald's, despite the fact that they don't have
I don't know, sixty percent of the location fifty percent
(18:08):
of the locations that Starbucks and McDonald's have. So they've
been selling all kinds of branded merchandise. They have a
sleeping bag now that you can buy that resembles their
sandwich packaging. They created a spin off brand.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
But it's going to be a lot of family friendly
Christian programming. I'm reading on the Christianpost dot com.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Yeah, you can sign up for it.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Not really my thing.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
Okay, just don't say no right away.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
And the other thing is, if you're watching Chick fil
A streaming, what are you thinking about the entire time?
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Well, now that's the point of it. That's what everything's
going to be brought to you by Chick fil A
Sauce or something like that. Oh my goodness, all right,
CBS finally listened to the show. They finally admitted that
they edited the Kamala Harris interview, but then didn't release
the transcript. How does this statement make any sense unless
(19:04):
you release a transcript.
Speaker 7 (19:05):
Good morning Gary, Good morning Shannon. Ay, this is Frank again,
you're bad ass truck driver. Hey, I'm so tired right
here about them Dodgers me being a Mets fan. Yeah,
it's okay. You don't want to know why. You guess
my backup keeen is the Yankees, So let's go Yankees.
That's right, And Shannon, sorry about them. Forty nine and
I've lost up there in San Francisco by hey a,
(19:26):
you know, better luck next week.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Yeah, they're not gonna have better luck next week. That
is a broken team. I mean, in more ways than one.
The aura that the forty nine ers had. And this
is why it makes such a big This is why
when you get to the super Bowl, when you get that,
it's hard to reach the super Bowl.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
It's impossible.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
When you get there, you have to capitalize, especially if
you're there twice within five years. You gotta get it
done when you reach that pinnacle because it is hard
to keep a team intact. And forty nine ers are injured,
they're broken, the spirits broken. Jerry Rice said, if that
was back when I played, we would have been taking
shots at each other on the sideline. The chemistry is off.
(20:09):
The Chiefs are the ugliest undefeated team. I've ever seen.
And I'm not saying that because I'm sore over losing
to them in the Super Bowl and the Chargers losing
to them so often. It's because they are not fun
to watch. They are sloppy, they're slow, they're struggling, and
they're still undefeated. The best team in football and that's
(20:29):
what you got. Come on, I mean, Vikings are much
more fun to watch. The Ravings are much more fun
to watch. Sorry, what were we talking about?
Speaker 4 (20:40):
Lost time?
Speaker 3 (20:41):
It's going to go.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
You're like and then the NFC.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
North Hey Gary Shannon Beck.
Speaker 8 (20:49):
In the late eighties early nineties, when I was still
using cocaine, not very often, but every time we got
a shipment of cocaine that had a pink.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
Or yellow hue to it is heroin.
Speaker 8 (21:09):
That was the extra good stuff.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
Ah really No, that meant that you're cocaine had heroin
in it.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Well that's the possibility, right, maybe that's what made it
the good stuff.
Speaker 4 (21:20):
No that's not Nope, No that's not good care no
a whole.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
On a second, I don't mean good like no, no,
objectively like no, Why I would not say that, but
have a.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Cores light or a glass of chardonnay and call it
a day. Leave the powders alone.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
I haven't had a Coors Light in a long time. Really, yeah,
trying to remember.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
Probably at my house if you want to come over.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Is it cold?
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Are the mountains or you're damn right? Those mountains are blue?
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Right? Well, you're not even home, so maybe I'll just
go grab.
Speaker 4 (21:48):
Some it's the best time to come over.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
Say that against quietest. Kamala Harris's interview with sixty Minutes
was edited to make her answer more succinct. We knew that,
we knew that CBS and admitted that finally they've been
embroiled in this kind of scandal, bias, scandal, manipulation, scaled,
whatever word you want to use, because they edited a
clip from an interview with the vice president, and the
(22:14):
accusation is that they tried to make her look more competent.
And the way that they explained it, what okay, just
the they did an interview with sixty Minutes that was
going to air in its entirety on Monday night a
couple of weekends ago.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
But in this Sunday they based the Nation or what
have you. They gave a little blurb, a little clip
a little teaser, and in that teaser, Kamala Harris is
answering question about Israel and about our support and where
we think this is headed. And then when it aired
on Monday night, in entirety, it was a completely different answer.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
So the specific statement from CBS sixty minutes gave it
a quote. Sixty minutes gave an excerpt of our interview
to face the nation that you used a longer section
of her answer than that on sixty minutes, same question,
same answer, but a different portion of the response. When
we added any interview, whether a politician, an athlete, or
movie star, we strive to be clear, accurate, and on point.
(23:12):
The portion of her answer on sixty minutes was more succinct,
which allows time for other subjects in a wide ranging,
twenty one minute long segment, I will say they weren't
talking about the price of carrots. They were talking about
the potential for the Middle East to blow up into
World War III.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
Let me play conspiracy theorist, my new favorite role to play.
If that was the case, then why in the super
abbreviated teaser was the answer not the most succinct If
they wanted it to be succinct. Why in a twenty
(23:48):
second teaser would they have the rambling answer and not
it already edited. Unless and here's where the conspiracy comes in.
Unless everyone saw that clip of her in Kamala Harris World,
Democratic World, and they said, oh hell no, the horn
immediately and the pressure was so much for CBS and
(24:11):
so much was writing on fixing that in terms of
getting future interviews or what have you, or the democracy
that we have in this country that they changed.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Manifest a suckul and Chinese meal, Mike, your hands off,
mytt My question is why would CBS balk at the
idea of just releasing the transcript. You put out this
statement and you say we're going to prove it. This
(24:45):
is the transcript of the question, or this is the
transcript of the full interview.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
I guess to play devil's advocate. They don't want to
negotiate with terrorists. They don't want to capitulate to the naysayers,
the conspiracy theorists.
Speaker 6 (24:58):
Okay, but but they're But then, the reputation of arguably
one of the great legacy media outlets in our country's
history has now got a giant black eye on it.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
Right, and listen. I know plenty of people who support
Kamala Harris who say this looks really bad for CBS,
that they acknowledge this should never have happened. In that
you can edit those things we talked about that last week.
You can edit. That's part of what journalism is is
trying to figure out which of these answers makes the
most sense, especially if you're dealing with time constraints for
(25:34):
whatever reason. But then admit that you have to be
able to back up your answers. You have to back
up and show your work as to why you did that.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Our CBS news just knows what we all know. Nobody's
really paying that much attention, are they. You're focused on
Donald Trump's order at McDonald's Chick fil A's streaming content.
Speaker 4 (25:59):
What is your order? McDonald's.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Uh, it's been a while.
Speaker 4 (26:04):
I did a big mac guy.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
I am a big mac guy. Yeah. I used to
do the fish filet or file of fish, but I
have not done that in a long time.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
Is that just like a Is that just like a
big fish stick like a cocod or something.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Cost I think it's probably various white fishes that have
been camal amalgamated camalcamated could put into one compound and
then squished through something to.
Speaker 4 (26:34):
What's a sauce on that? Is it like a tartar sauce?
That sounds delicious.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
My mother used to always get file fish, so I
of course wanted nothing to do with that, of course,
But yeah, I'm a I'm a burger, just the normal burger,
small fry. Sometimes I'll do small fry, communist small fry.
Speaker 4 (26:59):
I get the small fry. I like, I don't have
envelope it is yeah and uh.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
And then sometimes though, I will get into a box
of chicken nuggets and and just eat more barbecue sauce
than God intended for me to eat.
Speaker 4 (27:17):
I do like that tangy barbecue sauce.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
Man, it becomes a vehicle for the sauce.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
Oh man, it's so good. And then they started about meats.
Why I know me too.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
I'm actually starving right now, and I ate a piece
of meat last night. But but uh, I need fresh
meats today. I need new meats, and I'm planning it.
I was talking to Jacob off the air. I was
going through the menu of the foods they have here.
They've got like a fried chicken sandwich, but instead of
(27:50):
a bun, it's two waffles and they've got some sauces
on that chicken.
Speaker 4 (27:55):
And Jacob and I both.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Decided we had diabetes after eating masks from eating the
main But they also do a pretzel dog here, and
then they also do a meatball HOGI on a stick,
where like the bread is wrapped in an s shape
around two meatballs and it's all in a stick and
it comes with marin aisas.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
That sounds amazing.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
I was a farmer's market on Saturday and passed by
a place that was making meatball sandwiches and it was
it smelled so good.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
I love a meatball sandwich like I'll get that at Subway,
even the trash sandwich shops, of all sandwich shops. I mean,
it's fine for what it is, but it's not a
real deli. Everyone knows that this mess, but they do. Yeah,
but they do a nice meatball sandwich.
Speaker 3 (28:39):
All right, campaign full swing. Now, I gotta go find
some food. We'll get into swamp watch when we come
back to Gary and Shannon. You've been listening to The
