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):
At least hundreds of people have gathered at Howard University
to hear from Vice President Harris what's expected to be
her concession speech coming up just about an hour from now.
We know that she has already contacted former President Trump
to congratulate him on yesterday's election win. We also know
that President Biden has apparently called former president and President

(00:29):
elect Trump to congratulate him on winning the presidency. According
to the White House, they said the President expressed his
commitment to ensuring the smooth transition, emphasized the importance of
working to bring the country together, and invited Trump to
meet with him at the White House. Biden also spoke
to his vice president on the phone today to congratulate

(00:50):
her on her historic campaign. And again it looks like
Harris will speak about one o'clock hour time.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
Quite the comeback for him.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
It's like Kamala Harris's comment on the view about not
changing a single thing Joe Biden did was Aaron Judge
dropping that ball, and then the garbage line from Biden
was not covering first and off to the races ement.

Speaker 2 (01:14):
Bad throw like, yeah, I mean all of that that
kind of went into it.

Speaker 4 (01:17):
I was reading through.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
I mentioned this article that showed up in Politico Today
why Kamala Harris lost the election, and it discussed the
refusal for her of her to break clean from.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
The last four years.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
Voters indicated they didn't like the economy, they didn't like
immigration policy, and those were the two big issues where
she simply wouldn't or couldn't break herself away from the
policies of Joe Biden.

Speaker 5 (01:44):
Ye.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
But your word historic, I think is important because this
is the second time that we've had a president re
elected to non consecutive terms.

Speaker 4 (01:58):
Garfield.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
Yeah, ourfield was which in and of itself, that doesn't
necessarily surprise me. Once you're president, it's not unusual that
you would then stay in the circles and have the
power that you do. It's that Think about the way
Trump left office in twenty twenty one January sixth, a
giant black eye on the country.

Speaker 4 (02:20):
Uh, the second impeachment.

Speaker 3 (02:24):
Grover Cleveland Cleveland, Yeah, okay, I.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
Mean all this guy was tainted and for much of
the Republican Party. He was radioactive and they didn't want
to have anything to do with him, right, But I
mean that and to come back from that is incredible.

Speaker 3 (02:47):
What else is going on?

Speaker 4 (02:49):
Time for what's happening?

Speaker 5 (02:51):
Water damage, fired damage. Burglory called public adjuster the GAD
nine five, two five six, Let's see Props two three
four passed yesterday.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
And Props thirty four, thirty five, and thirty six past
the bonds for affordable housing and infrastructure failed. Eliminating forces
and inmates to work failed, raising minimum wage, failed, local government,
residential control failed.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
K CAL news anchor and three time Emmy winner Chauncey
Glover died unexpectedly yesterday, just thirty nine years old.

Speaker 6 (03:35):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
He was an anchor in Houston as well for eight years.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
They say he is.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
Being remembered by everyone who knew him for his big heart,
giving nature on air charisma. He helped rescue a woman
in twenty seventeen who was in labor and deliver the
baby while reporting on Hurricane Harvey.

Speaker 4 (03:57):
Sounds familiar.

Speaker 3 (03:58):
That's incredible, passed with the ages thirty nine years old.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
Doctors are raising concerns about the health of our stranded astronauts.
Sunita Williams has been up on the International Space Station
now for one hundred and fifty two days after the
star liner, that faulty star liner from Boeing left her
stuck up there on the ISS along with her fellow
astronaut Barry Wilmore.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
She doesn't look good, guys. She looks very gaunt. That
is a definite change in her appearance that you're seeing
in this picture somebody that is experiencing the natural stresses
of living at a very high altitude, even in a
pressurized cabin for extended periods.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
Yeah, she's eating a pepperoni pizza and potato or corn
chips while she's surrounded by other processed foods. But she said,
based on what I'm one of the doctors, based on
what I'm seeing, at least in the photo, I don't
think she's quite at a place where I'd say her
life is in danger. They're just things that the human
body cannot adjust to, and one of which is she's

(05:06):
probably losing more calories than she's in taking well.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
And also all those processed foods is all you can
have in space, truly, just a bunch of poison, much
of junk.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Your metabolism fundamentally requires you to burn way more energy
than you're intaking, even if you're chomping down on a
Pepperoni pizza.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Well, California Department Corrections and Rehab people are looking for
a guy who walked away from a community re entry
program facility yesterday.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
What the tickle farm let him out?

Speaker 1 (05:35):
The tickle farm said, go on your way. Samaki Twaman.
He was missing after officials were alerted that he was
tampering with his ankle monitor. He's twenty two five seven
about one hundred and eighty pounds.

Speaker 3 (05:50):
Five year sentence.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
He was serving for discharging a firearm in an inhabited dwelling,
slash vehicle, slash aircraft, and second degree robbery.

Speaker 4 (05:58):
Oh well, then there's that.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
Police have seized a record cocaine hall in a banana
shipment in Spain. Lee said that they seized thirteen tons
of cocaine. Policing customs agent intercepted the Cocayina in the
southern port of something can't pronounce it October fourteenth. The
container ship that had arrived from Ecuador's largest city of Guayaquiel,

(06:23):
which happens to be a drug trafficking hub. The likes
of which haven't been seen in thousands of years.

Speaker 1 (06:29):
Mookie Betts will be greeting fans today in Glendale at
Dick's Sporting Goods.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
Don't go. Why you can't get tickets? You fans lined
up early in the morning to get a wristband. It's
required for entrance. They only gave him, I think, to
one hundred and fifty people, You're not no.

Speaker 4 (06:46):
In that one and fifty, I am not Nope.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Robert Sherman with News Nation joins us now to talk
about this historic comeback by Trump to reclaim the White House.
Robert crazy night, but not completely shocking that he ran
away with them, you.

Speaker 7 (07:04):
Know, I mean, it's when you think about it, I mean,
this has been a long, long campaign. I've been two
years to the month in which all this began. And
the way that this campaign began, there was so much uncertainty.
You had so many people in the Republican Party asking
the question, could he possibly win? Could he carry a
state like Pennsylvania, could he carry a state such as Georgia.

(07:26):
And I mean in the end, I mean you're looking
at a pretty emphatic rejection towards those detractors as he's
obviously shown, you know, the successes that he was able
to carry the night with. And what I would tell
you this is this that I mean, in the days
leading up to the election, you saw so much of
the conversation shifting back towards Vice President Kamala Harris and

(07:49):
the thinking among the polsters that maybe she had a
late surge coming in. But there was this unabashed confidence
in all of the conversations that we had with the
Trump team going into that night that they really believed
their internal numbers, that they were up in all of
the battleground states. And sure enough, here we are, the
former president now the president elect, eclipsing that two hundred

(08:11):
and seventy electoralve vote benchmark.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Do you know how we're supposed to refer to him?
Do we say the former president elect? Or do we
say the elect former president president?

Speaker 7 (08:20):
Yeah? I've been struggling with that all day. You know,
that's it's different, that's for sure.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
I wish we could go back and ask was it
Grover Cleveland's people who how they covered him?

Speaker 3 (08:32):
I think that they're no longer with us.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
Oh maybe that's a problem I was watching.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
I we tell you this, Robert I was watching News
Nations coverage last night because I thought you guys did
the best job just in terms of the information that
was neutral that there didn't appear to be a lot
of tears and a lot of cheering. So that was
a good way to handle what we were watching last night.
And you, I believe were on the air when your

(08:58):
Decision Desk HQ who projected that Trump was going to
win the presidency.

Speaker 7 (09:03):
Yes, I mean even before the watch party there knew,
which is a bit of real kudos to Decision Desk
HQ and the way that they were so consistently ahead
of the curve and they just had really strong numbers
and analysis and what they were able to do throughout
the night. I mean again, you know, I mean we
all anticipated that this was going to be a very

(09:23):
very late night and possibly even at this time this
conversation we would have, we wouldn't know the outcome. And
sure enough, I mean, despite the fact that you do
look at a lot of these states, a lot of
them are going to when every voter is counted, end
up being very close. But you know, you look at
that statistical analysis and you look at just enough in
order to pull out a lot of these major states here.

(09:45):
So that's now the entire focus here is shifting towards
the future and towards the inauguration coming up in January.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
What do you think to this fan fiction that's being
peddled in certain places that Joe Biden will make way
for Kamala Harri and it would kind of be the
bow on his legacy of having the first woman of
colorsit as president.

Speaker 7 (10:10):
You know, I don't know, Yeah, I don't know about
that one. I mean, it's certainly something that people talk about.
I mean, at this point, you know, every indication that
we've seen is that President Biden is much more so
focused on a smooth transition of power heading into January here,
and that's really the messaging that we've gotten out of

(10:31):
the White House on this. Obviously, as you can imagine,
a very disappointing nights for Democrats, they knew it was
going to be close, they knew there were going to
be a lot of margin of error type races, and
I mean as you look at the scoreboard here, I
mean yeah, I mean if a few thousand votes across
seven states when a different direction, we could be talking
about a very different outcome. And there's certainly a lot

(10:53):
of soul searching going on right now. Is exactly where
to go from here?

Speaker 4 (10:57):
All right, Robert, great stuff, great work last night. Thank you,
Thank you. Robert Sherman there with NewsNation.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
One of the things that he actually retweeted was from
one of his colleagues about how Newsnation's decision desk HQ
came up with their projection that Trump was going to
win not just Pennsylvania, but then that would remove the
path to victory for Kamala Harris. And it gets into
the super granular level of how each of these networks

(11:27):
sits down with a war room basically just pouring over
and scraping the statistics that they can get from these
early returns that come in from these states incomplete.

Speaker 4 (11:38):
I mean, we won't.

Speaker 2 (11:39):
It'll be days before everybody gets a one hundred percent
count and they make them official.

Speaker 4 (11:43):
That's just the way it goes.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
But the discussion about how in a couple of places
he overperforms by five percent, and in those specific counties
that are the high population counties where he had Biden
had won four years ago, but he appeared to be
flipping them already. I mean that kind of meant mental
gymnastics that you're going through to then confidently say this

(12:10):
candidate is winning this state and therefore that candidate is
going to win the election.

Speaker 3 (12:14):
To do that, it's just it's an impossible game.

Speaker 2 (12:17):
It's a weird, hard, difficult and that's why smart people
do it. Or not smart people, well, I mean the
ones who do these predictions, not the polling party, the
predictions of who's going to take a state on election.
There it's time for what to watch Wednesday.

Speaker 4 (12:33):
The following program is brought to you in living color.

Speaker 5 (12:36):
But you watching in the America love television, they win
their kids.

Speaker 4 (12:40):
Collars, USA Television mat You've been.

Speaker 8 (12:43):
Watching too many of those live television shows.

Speaker 4 (12:47):
All right, tell us about your show?

Speaker 3 (12:50):
Which one?

Speaker 4 (12:51):
Well, I mean you okay, the.

Speaker 3 (12:52):
Sex one you told me to watch.

Speaker 4 (12:54):
I didn't tell you to watch it.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
Here's the thing about disclaimer and told you not to
watch it. It's true you did. Here's the thing that
troubles me about disclaimer. See, when I usually watched the
sex shows that Deborah recommends, it's just Deborah and I
watching these shows.

Speaker 3 (13:12):
So it's not creepy at all.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
It's just like two girlfriends that enjoy a show, right,
not creepy at all, But then Disclaimer came out and
suddenly everyone on this floor watches Disclaimer, and it's super
creepy to have watched porn essentially with all of your
co workers.

Speaker 8 (13:30):
Shannon, I've had I'm not going to say who, but
a couple of people who also work at this station say, wait,
what show were you guys talking about? And they're watching
that is.

Speaker 3 (13:44):
What's wrong with that?

Speaker 8 (13:46):
I think that we're just you know, we're just stressful.

Speaker 3 (13:50):
You need an escape. But why do we have to
have naked escape?

Speaker 8 (13:53):
I don't know, and just and psycho people too?

Speaker 1 (13:58):
Oh my gosh, have you had you made through made
your way through all of the available episodes of Disclaimer?

Speaker 8 (14:04):
No, because I was away for a few days with
my daughter. So tonight's the night, Honey said, don't.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
Give it away. I won't you buckle up. It is good.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
So this is but the sex kind of peters out
a couple of minutes into episode four, so you don't
have to worry about that.

Speaker 3 (14:21):
Episode three was a lot ridiculous. It was a lot.

Speaker 8 (14:25):
I'm sorry that I know that you thought, you know,
we should be you know, used to it from tell
Me lies.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
I think this was a little next level. I don't know,
that's my opinion. That's a real ding dong.

Speaker 2 (14:37):
This is Kate Blanchett, Kevin Klein, Sasha Baron Cohen.

Speaker 3 (14:41):
Really well acted. I mean, you hit the nail on
the head.

Speaker 1 (14:44):
You love Kate Blanchett and everything, but I think the
way you said it was she's not going above and
beyond here, or she's not has doesn't have to bend
over backwards to very understated role. The two men sparkle,
Kevin Klein and Sasha Baron Cohen. It's they're acting as impeccable.

Speaker 2 (15:01):
Yeah, and I'm amazed that Kevin Klin hasn't been in
more stuff.

Speaker 6 (15:05):
Yes, like where has he been? He's so good and
his accent isn't so good. It's just incredible, remarkable. The
other show that every well, we'll come back, there's more.
Do you have an accent in your adult theater production?

Speaker 4 (15:19):
Do I have an accent?

Speaker 7 (15:21):
No?

Speaker 3 (15:21):
Can you give us a line?

Speaker 2 (15:23):
Yes, we're talking what you're watching Wednesday, some of the
stuff that we've been paying attention to, and we're talking
about disclaimer. What you're watching on Friday, of course, could
be the Matchmaker, which is the show that I'm in.
And we have the information up on Instagram and Facebook
and Twitter as to where you can buy tickets, et cetera.

Speaker 4 (15:42):
It's this weekend and next weekend.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
So is anybody Is anybody worrying you? Not ready? Not
good with their line?

Speaker 4 (15:52):
Last couple nights have been pretty good. That's good.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
I mean, there are traditionally, you know, they always say that,
well they don't, but Elanis Morissett that rain on your
wedding day is a good sign, or she says it's ironic,
but it's supposed to be a good sign. When things
go wrong in rehearsals, it's supposed to be a good sign.

Speaker 7 (16:11):
Right.

Speaker 3 (16:11):
Did somebody break a leg?

Speaker 4 (16:13):
Somebody broke a glass?

Speaker 2 (16:14):
Oh, which was great, Yeah, because then now we know
what to do if it happens during performance.

Speaker 3 (16:23):
Oh so it was on stage?

Speaker 4 (16:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (16:25):
Oh wow, that's dramatic.

Speaker 4 (16:27):
Yeah, so what did be obvious when you see? It'll
be obvious when.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
It was so But that's all.

Speaker 3 (16:34):
Can I shout out, don't break that glass?

Speaker 1 (16:37):
You can do whatever you like. That is dangerous, But
I also know.

Speaker 2 (16:43):
You and I know that you wouldn't do something to
embarrass the people that.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
You're with I would not, so I have all my
babysitters that are can be with me.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
They will sit in front of you and behind you, yes,
and beside you.

Speaker 4 (16:58):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
Yes, So I be like you and storm the stage.
When a friend is in a production of sorts.

Speaker 2 (17:04):
Well, the thing is, I'm not there to encourage you
to do something stupid, and you're not there to encourage
me to.

Speaker 4 (17:09):
Do something True's.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
Usually when when it gets to the trouble level. Yes,
for some reason, you're sitting next to me, and we go,
oh bit, No. One line is stop eating the chicken.
I can't pay for it.

Speaker 3 (17:30):
Is that how you say that?

Speaker 4 (17:31):
No? Say it?

Speaker 1 (17:32):
How you're going to do it? Because I yell it,
yell at this is practice. It's not practice. Yes, it
is not true. Come on, Nope, stop eating the chicken.

Speaker 4 (17:43):
I can't pay for it.

Speaker 3 (17:44):
I can't pay for it.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
Is he bluffing? Can he really pay for it? He
just doesn't want? Is he a tight wad?

Speaker 2 (17:50):
Are you do you want more of this? Why would
you even go if I tell you the whole story.

Speaker 3 (17:55):
To see your acting?

Speaker 1 (17:57):
Well, you know you know the story of you know,
Phantom of the Opera, But you go to see, guy
is like a face, right, he's got a bad face. Yes, Okay,
there's a lot more to that than that. I've never
seen it.

Speaker 4 (18:13):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
He's more than his disability.

Speaker 4 (18:17):
I don't know that. I don't know that for sure.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
You would love Phantom of the Opera. Probably you would
as a theater, as a man of theater.

Speaker 4 (18:26):
Okay, but I haven't watched it.

Speaker 3 (18:30):
You would enjoy it.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
Tom Cruise is working on a sequel to Days of Thunder?

Speaker 4 (18:36):
Did you why?

Speaker 3 (18:36):
Who asked for this? There's something that should be left
in time, and that's.

Speaker 4 (18:40):
Why I liked that movie. I really did.

Speaker 3 (18:42):
But I liked it in nineteen ninety two or whenever
it came out.

Speaker 4 (18:45):
That's what the that's what the concern is.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
They're saying a lot of people would love the idea
of Days of Thunder two, showing off that that he
was doing his own driving, et cetera. The problem is
the audiences have already seen that on Formula one, on
Ford v. Ferrari, on Grand Turismo, on the Ferrari movie,
and they said, there's one movie that has the potential

(19:08):
to suck the momentum out of Days of Thunder two
before it even gets going. There's a new Brad Pitt
movie coming out this summer called f One that is
directed by Top Gun Maverick director Joseph Kazinski. That's what
they're saying, that the whole you can only have so
many star you know, a list stars in.

Speaker 4 (19:32):
Fast car movies.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
I don't know, though, I think those fast car movies
that there's always going to be an appetite for them.
Like now that I'm thinking about a Days of Thunder reprise,
Like that'd be kind of cool if they, you know,
to watch the actually came out in nineteen ninety, watch
that again and then have them have some callbacks.

Speaker 3 (19:50):
Nicole Kidman.

Speaker 4 (19:51):
Nicole Kidman could come back. Yeah, she was gorgeous.

Speaker 1 (19:54):
They she really was, Like wow, I mean, she's gorgeous
in everything I know.

Speaker 2 (19:59):
But it was also thirty forty. I think she was
in her twenties which the movie came out.

Speaker 3 (20:02):
Yeah, that figure, My goodness.

Speaker 4 (20:04):
I wasn't looking at her figure. I was talking about
her acting, right animal. Do are you speaking of sequels?

Speaker 2 (20:12):
Spaceballs is getting a sequel Spaceballs two?

Speaker 3 (20:17):
Is he even still do all those jokes?

Speaker 2 (20:19):
Josh Dad is starring and writing in it, And then
Yellowstone Season five, Part two comes out.

Speaker 4 (20:28):
I think it's this weekend.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
As a matter, I think it's Sunday. The previews that
we have seen for what this is going to be
look absolutely nuts. A lot of promos have been released
by the Paramount Network and they said that there's going
to be a lot of violence in this one.

Speaker 4 (20:45):
Kevin Costner's gone.

Speaker 2 (20:47):
We're going to see how they explain that, but how
also they proceed on the show without him, because he
was really kind of the backbone of that whole place.

Speaker 4 (20:57):
You've been listening to The Gary and Shannon Show.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
You can always hear us live on KFI AM six
forty nine am to one pm every Monday through Friday,
