Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to kf
I am six forty the Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app. I am excited about this fight.
What time is this actually going to be on? I
know it says it starts at five? Yeah, five starts
the undercard. From what I saw, I think there are
six undercard bouts. What are the undercard bouts? Is it
also old guys?
Speaker 2 (00:21):
You've never seen them?
Speaker 3 (00:22):
And it's two women's matches?
Speaker 4 (00:25):
I believe, Oh, that's going to be fun to watch
a bunch of listen.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
I haven't been paying enough attention to boxing lately to
know who they are.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
But I had a transgender hostess last night at the restaurant,
and I could totally take her in volleyball.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
How do I know?
Speaker 1 (00:41):
I just all the whole time I was talking to her,
I was thinking, I could totally. I could totally take
you in all the sports. She wasn't very sturdy.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Well, are you suggesting that she was born a man
and has transitioned to a woman. Yes, and you could
you could take her in all the sports? Yeah, you
have no problem with.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Not if that's going to be the one that they
put on the starting five. I want to know how
much I can read that would I've never played volleyball,
That's how confident I am that I could take that person.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
Okay, so how much of this can I read?
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Verbati?
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Oh my gosh, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
I'm gonna I don't have a boss right now, so
I'm just going to hit for the fences.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Let's start with this.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Florida. Former Florida Congressman Matt Gates. He's resigned from Congress
because Donald Trump has said that he wants to nominate
him to be the next attorney general.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
This is in the final stages of the House's ethics report.
They were going to meet today to talk about when
to release this thing. And so now that he has resigned,
the ethics report on him and all his dalliances with
underaged girls goes by the wayside, maybe to die forever.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
The both Republicans and Democrats in the Senate, who obviously
would be in charge of confirming an attorney general, have
come out and said this is an awful pick. Republicans
have been a little bit more careful in the way
that they say it, some of them literally just making
faces when they're approached with it.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
But there's a there's a.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Writer, a conservative pundit guy named Ben Domenich.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
He's a maga guy, Trump guy, something to keep in mind.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
So he wrote a.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Piece in The Federalist. I'll read you the headline and
then the sub headline, and you read the things that
he wrote.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
The headline is Matt Gates is a vile sex pest,
and any Senator who votes for him owns that. The
subhead is crush some viagra and pour the red bull
in your veins.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
His name is Ben Dominic and it goes on to
say this, and I'm just going to read it verbatim.
The creative writing is just so refreshing. It's so refreshing. Anyway,
here we go. I realize that we are occasionally given
to hyperbole about the untow worn nature of politicians.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
But let me be clear.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Matt Gates is a sex trafficking, drug addicted piece of s.
He is abhorrent. His eyes are permanently rimmed with the
red rings of chemical boosters. In person, he smells like
overexposed axe body spray and stale astroglide. The fact that
he boasted on the floor to multiple colleagues in the
House of Representatives of his methods of crushing viagra and
(03:25):
high test red bull to maintain his erection through his
orgasmic evenings is perhaps the least offensive of his many
crimes against womanhood and Christian faith.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
He says, the man has less principles than your average
fentanyl addicted hobo. He likes them under age, and he's
not ashamed about it.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
He's a hypocritical ass with the worst botox money can buy,
pursuing an ever thinner nose and higher cheekbones at every opportunity,
like a real housewive gone mad for fillers.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Ev Every Republican in Washington has an opinion about Matt Gates,
and ninety nine percent of those opinions are keep Matt
Gates away from my wife slash daughter, slash friend and
anyone I care about.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
He is a walking genital warts included as a bonus that.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Is that might be the best line.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
I love it. I'm stealing it.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
If I was merely attempting to count the number of
women I know who have had bad experiences with Matt Gates,
I would run out of fingers and toes.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
If you vote for him, I guess this is directly
to senators. If you vote for him to be the
Attorney General of the United States, you don't just need
your head examined, you need to be committed to a
mental institution.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
The man is absolutely vile.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
There are pools of vomit with more to offer the
earth than this std riddled testament to the failure of
fallen masculinity.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Boom, Oh my gosh, that is so good.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
Now it makes me want to write again. I feel
like it would be kind of.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Cathartic about a dude that you do not like. Yeah,
I mean anybody.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
I mean anybody really, I mean I could bring down
but anyway good. Yeah, it's it's just and that's a
maga guy, you know. And so I'm just wondering.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
And listen, we have, actually, we have gotten some feedback
from people who say that we need to lay off
of Matt Gates, like, you know, he's he's good at
what he does, or he's you know, what is it.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
That he does. He's a showman. He goes on TV
and he screams.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Well, and he has a law degree.
Speaker 4 (05:25):
He has a lot of degree. But that's where it ends.
A lot of people have a low degrees, they don't
practice law, and the.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Idea that a forty two year old guy not that
age has anything to do with it. But in this case,
he doesn't have the experience that I would want in
an attorney general. There are probably a dozen people, even
a dozen lawyers that Donald Trump has employed over the
last ten fifteen years, that would be infinitely more qualified
(05:55):
to be the attorney general than Matt Gates. And this
is a giant This is a giant black eye. I
think for whatever transition Trump is trying to put together.
You think about those first few names that came out,
like at least Defenic to become Ambassador to the UN
or Susie Wiles to be chief of staff. Some of
(06:16):
these made perfect sense, right, they were not unexpected. But
now you're getting into some weird stuff. I noticed outside
of the RFK junior thing for Health and Human Services,
which the announcement came down yesterday, he went completely boring
and decided Doug Bergham for Department of the Interior. Right,
I mean, that's the safest, most first of all, Department
(06:37):
of Interior. Very few people know what that secretary does
or what that department does. So Doug Bergham at the
top of that is like a yawner compared to the
idea that you'd have Matt Gates Eddie Munster looking freak
at the top of your Department of Justice.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Trump likes to make a splash, he likes a showman.
Cabinet positions or tend to be very boring to your
point of Doug Burn, And.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
He wants a little uh, he wants a little publicity,
wants a little chaos. Probably.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
I also think that they're trying to shield Matt Gates
in exchange for his loyalty to Trump from this ethics.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Report, which I understand. Yeah again politically, I can see
the math on that. But then what happens to Matt Gates.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
He's resigning his position at Congress, he gets a lucrative.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Position on a board, a think tank, something, a nice
soft landing spot for people who are loyal to Trump.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Gross.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Yeah, it's very gross.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
That's Washington. That's power and politics. Baby. Tropical Storm Sarah
expected to weaken before it approaches Florida excuse me next week.
The storm is currently slowing down between the Bay Islands
and northern mainland of Honduras, Central America. Right now, being
hit with floods mud slides. It's expected to move to
(07:49):
the coast of Belize over the weekend, but they say
that it is going to be a very slowed downstorm
by the time it hits the mainland.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
It's November hurricane. I mean, it's not going to be
as crazy as the other ones. Lebanon has a caretaker
prime minister right now. Najib Makati has asked Iran to
help secure a ceasefire in the war between Israel and
Hesbel appears to be urging it to press the militant group,
a close ally of Iran, to agreed to a deal
that would require to pull back from the border with Israel.
(08:23):
We'll see if that makes any sort of any sort
of headway.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Donald Trump nominating RFK and Nay Junior to lead the
Department of Health and Human Services. People are losing their
their minds over this, like he's going to take away
all the vaccines or something. He is going to focus
on the industrial food complex, drug companies, the process food
beast that the tobacco industry created.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
He's not.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
It's which is all good things, those those and that's.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
The thing that people are losing because they're saying things
like he's anti vaccine, which he's not. He's vaccine testing
and he's pro parental control when it comes to vaccines
in your kids. That's very different things. I mean, he's
vac If he was anti vaccine, he wouldn't be vaccinated.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
But it's an.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Easy headline to write that he's anti vaccine. The thing
about him that I think is it was telling to
me was this morning. Pharmaceutical stocks dropped multiple percentage points
in their stock prices today just out of the fear
that R. F.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
K Junior would be in charge of Health and Human Services.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
So he's going to crack down on all the phony
lies that you're pedaled when it comes to food and drugs, and.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Think of the think of the amount of drug company
advertisements that we see on television all the time. That's
one of the things that's been that's been a thorn
in his side for a long time too.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
So Elon Musk says he'll receive no compensation for heading
the new Department of Government Efficiency. He wrote on his
platform it will require tedious work.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
He expects to make lots of enemies.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
He'll be working with Vivek Ramaswami to lead DOGE. They're
looking for potential employees, volunteer employees. We reported to you
yesterday basically making nothing and working at eighty hour a
week work weeks.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
The important thing to remember about this that I think
people are losing their minds over speaking of RFK and
losing their minds over that is this is not a
governmental agency. This is not a new position. I mean
it's a new position. It's not a new branch of
government that's opening up. This is simply advisory.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Right, And they're not making any money. They're not making
any government money.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
So I mean there is that aspect of this that
it is it's powerful enough to have the president's ear,
but even the president is not the one who controls
the purse springs in our government.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
It's Congress.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
People are looking to what Musk has done in the
past when it comes to cutting costs at his own
companies to kind of see what the roadmap would be
for reducing the size of government. When he took over
Twitter in twenty twenty two, he ended the company's remote
work policy free office lunches as well. He cut about
(11:18):
fifty percent of Twitter staff, set an expectation for those
who remain to work twenty four to seven. If you
don't want to work, there is the door, let's see.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
He said.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
They said that he's been known to sleep on Tesla's
factory floor. Said he once lived at Tesla's factories for
three years straight to inspire his workers. That's what the
head coaches do, you know what I mean? They sleep
at the facility. That that's how you get people to
work hard. You lead by working hard.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
You ever slept at a radio station? Sure, yes, to me,
that's I wouldn't encourage it. But there are time times
when it's necessary for you to be at where you
work longer than you think right.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
And to have to be there the next morning at
four am. And there's no yes.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
That was you got to sleep on a polluted couch.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
There was long before I knew what kind of pollution
I was dealing with at radio stations. Not to know
now I basically where I has mat suit in every day.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
I was surprised by this. I was looking up the.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Way the government spends money and which departments spend the
most money. I give you three guesses what department, cabinet level,
department spends the most money in the United States government,
or I should say, has the largest budget education.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
No, education is fifth or sixth on the list.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
I don't know. Tell me.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Health and Human Services has the largest budget at according
to twenty twenty, because.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Of all the people in the FDA and otherwise in
bed with the pharmaceutical companies. The oiling up and the
ball washing that goes on is very expensive.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Oiling up one point eight trillion dollars. The Treasury is
second at one point six trillion, social Security one point
five trillion, and the Department of Defense comes in at
the fourth highest military program specifically, but eight hundred and
seventy two million a billion, sorry, eight hundred and seventy
two billion dollars.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
I could not be more excited about the plan to
cut down on government. Is it has gotten way too bloated,
way too expensive, way too redundant.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
Cut cut cut.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Praz please tonight, wait to watch Mike Tyson Jake Paul
until after the show.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
No, I'm gonna probably have it on my phone, just kidding.
I would do that. I'm not rude.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
I'm going to Gary's Adult theater tonight and the same
night as this, Jake Paul might Tyson fight.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
I want to find out what time.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
So if there's six fights before that, how long do
these fights last? I guess it depends on how long
to lasts.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
And their their fight itself is kind of a paired down.
It's probably gonna be like seven thirty.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
It's probably gonna be like right in the middle of
your show. Is there an intermission?
Speaker 2 (14:11):
There is, Yeah, but it's only about ten or twelve minutes.
It's not long.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
I'm I think all Mike Tyson needs this one punch.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
Watching that guy hit things hurts me.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
The oldest sport is getting a freshening up. When you
look at this fight and what it means, make no mistake,
it's not about boxing. It's about publicity, right that. Yeah,
that is absolutely true.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
We'll talk more about this Jake Paul Mike Tyson fight
coming up tonight on Netflix. Hundreds of Vegas hotel workers
have gone on strike at a casino near the Strip,
the first open ended strike for the Culinary Workers Union
in more than twenty years. It includes about seven hundred
who went on strike this morning at the Virgin Hotels
Las Vegas. Strike comes after a very highly publicized, in
(15:00):
bitter fight for a new contract that started over a
year ago. So as of right now, Housekeeper's cocktail waitresses, porters,
Bellman and Moore on the picket lines as of this morning.
Union says he's trying to get the same pay raises
and benefits that it's gotten for some of the other
Vegas members Since last November.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Well, Mike Tyson has slapped Jake Paul in the face
during a final stare down as they had their way
in last night.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Yeah, I figured there wasn't enough publicity around this thing.
You might as well throw in a little slap. And
by the way, his slaps look hard.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Tyson waded in at two thirty three. Jake Paul too twenty,
he's twenty seven. Tyson's fifty eight. And Tyson still looks
like Mike Tyson.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
He has not I know, he's a little slower. He's
complained about you know, some of his workouts are taking
their toll, Like he's been having these massive workouts and
had a hard time walking after a couple of them.
He had, Remember, he had ulcer flare up, which is
why they had to delay the fight from July to
to tonight. It is not going to go well for however,
(16:12):
this ends up, it's not going to go well for
Jake Paul. This is a sanctioned fight by the state
of Texas. They're doing it at the house that Jerry
built at at and T Stadium there in Dallas, and
there are three fights on the undercard. There are some
preliminary fights I guess that are going to be in
that same ring, but you're not going to see them.
So the three fights that you're gonna see on the
(16:34):
undercard near as Gooyat against Winderson, Nunez, Mario Barrios versus
Abo Ramos. That'll be a WC, WBC welterweight title, Katie
Taylor and Amanda Serrano, the ladies get into it, WBCWBAWBO
and IBF junior welterweight titles on the line for that one.
And then Tyson against Jake Paul. Tyson has a fifty
(16:58):
and six record, Jake Paul has ten and one.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
Mike Tyson grew up fighting.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
He He says his first fight was with a big
kid who had pulled the head off one of Tyson's pigeons.
By the time he was thirteen, Mike Tyson had been
arrested thirty eight times. Jake Paul grew up in Ohio
doing prank videos with his brother for YouTube. I don't
(17:25):
care how much you train, you don't train the fight
into you the way that Mike Tyson.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
So it was raised having the fight in him.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
There was a great line.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
I mean, there's been all kinds of pre fight promotion
for this, obviously because of the connection to YouTube. But Netflix,
i mean, they know what they're doing when they promote this.
There was a video of Mike Tyson sitting on a
couch with a couple of his trainers watching a Jake
Paul fight, and post fight, Jake Paul looks at the
camera and says, I love you, Mike Tyson, but I'm
(17:59):
coming for you. You're the legend, but I'm about to take
your throne.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Something to you know whatever.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Bs, this guy wants to spl stupid and Mike Tyson
just zero reaction on his face, not a laugh, not
an angry face.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
No, no, he just so.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
They say to him, Hey, Mike, hey champ, what do
you think And Mike Tyson says something along the lines
of he's not He's a manufactured killer. He's a TV killer.
He's a YouTube killer. That's what has made him a killer.
He says, I was a natural born killer.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
And it's a When he says it, he means it,
and it's terrified.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
He does if Mike Tyson, listen, if Mike Tyson died
in the ring or knew that he was close to
death in the ring because of the damage that Jake
Paul was doing. Because he can Jake paulk he can hit,
and he's a big fella.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
He could inflict damage on Mike Tyson.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Mike Tyson, it feels like would be a guy who
would gladly die in the ring in order to prove
a point against this guy.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Let's not forget Mike Tyson's pre fight ritual. His chauffeur
Rudy Gonzalez, claimed that Tyson would have to have sex
in the locker room before fights to loosen up and
disengage some of his strength. Rudy Gonzalez said that Tyson
would sometimes say, if I do not get laid, I
will kill this guy right now. I need something to
(19:26):
calm me down. Essentially, and he still nearly killed everybody.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Tyson is such a one track mind. I mean, he's
just he's one note. He was doing an interview with
a young.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Wait really quick, go on, I just have a quick
little dovetail from the sex thing. Recently, it's been reported
that in training for his fight against Jake Paul, he
gave up sex for discipline. Oh no, he told Forbes
he hasn't had sex weeks. Guy, he's gonna die. Jake
Paul's gonna die. And I feel bad that I'm smiling
(20:05):
when I say that, because there's a weird thing A
pull boxing pulls out of you. Right, it's this weird like.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
They're using They're wearing pillows, they're doing fifteen ounce or
fourteen ounce gloves.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
I think it is. The rounds are only two minutes.
I mean, there are softguard punches in Joe Biden's food.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
There are safeguards in place to protect Jake Paul. It's
not to protect Tyson. No is to protect Jake Paul.
Speaker 4 (20:28):
I don't care. Man.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Tyson did an interview with this young girl, Jazzy Gara.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
I don't know who she is, but she's just.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Young kid journalist kind of thing, standing there asking the
champ about what's this going to be about.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
Well, when your return to the ring for this fight,
you are setting a monumental opportunity for kids my age
to see the legend. Mike Tyson in the ring for
the first time, what type of legacy would you like
to leave behind when it's all set and done.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
A reminder, this kid is like twelve years old. Tyson
either doesn't see age or forgets the fact he's talking
to a little kid.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
Well, I don't know. I don't believe in the word legacy.
I just think that's another word for ego. That's just
some word everybody grabbed on too, and I was used
every five seconds. It means absolutely nothing to me. I'm
just passing through. I'm gonna die and it's gonna be over.
Who cares about legacy after that?
Speaker 2 (21:21):
I'm gonna die with a.
Speaker 6 (21:23):
Big ego, So I'm gonna die. I want people to
think that I'm this, I'm great, I'm no way nothing
where You're dead with that, absolutely nothing. Our legacy is nothing.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
It's a kid. Mike.
Speaker 5 (21:35):
Well, thank you so much for sharing that. That is
something that I have not heard before someone say that
as an answered.
Speaker 6 (21:40):
Can you really imagine some men saying I want my
legacy to be this way When I your dead, you
think I really want to think about you. I want
people to think about me when I'm gone. Who the
cares about men?
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Oh that's so good.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Hey, And for once, it's like he's not the villain
in the fight, like Jake Paul's the villain.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Yeah, that's a good point. I hadn't thought about that,
but that he is. I don't know if i'd say
he's the lovable character, but I know I don't know
anybody pulling for Jake Paul.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
I think the hangover gave him a lot of goodwill.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Tyson.
Speaker 4 (22:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
Later on in the show, by the way, we haven't
talked to Rich Mrada in a long time.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
I'm super excited. I thought about this driving in yesterday.
We should got Rich Marada on. I forgot about it,
And this morning you're like, we got Rich Murda on.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Rich Maraud a longtime boxing analyst and of course long
time voice of sports here on KFI. We'll talk with
Rich coming up a little bit later in the show
about this upcoming fie. First it was Beyonce, now ringo
star is talking about releasing an entire country album.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
I said an interview he was still with us.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
What I didn't I don't know. We're down a couple
beatles aren't we.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
We are, but we all still still have a couple.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
He sat in an interview with the AP that he's
put a bit of country in most everything he's done.
So he's eighty four. I was not far off. This
entire country album is not a big stretch, he says.
The project began when he bumped through it into his
old friend classic country officionado t Bone Burnett and asked
Burnett to write a song, and Burnett came back with
(23:13):
nine songs.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
Nothing says country like Liverpool.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
The resulting album is called Look Up by Ringo Star.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
It'll come out in a couple months.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
Well, this is exciting.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Nothing spruce is up the day like a pair of
Mickey ears.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Right, yeah, never, I will say this. I don't think
I've ever seen you wear Mickey ears before.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
I had not even a year ago. Sure, no, no.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
Is it a good look?
Speaker 2 (23:43):
It looks great?
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Good and I even come on, Mickey ears look great
on everybody.
Speaker 4 (23:48):
Not that you're taking away my comments.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
Sorry, that's not what I meant.
Speaker 4 (23:51):
Then you take it away, that's not what I meant.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Well, we are joined by our friends at Disneyland right now,
because this is the best time of year at Disneyland,
the holidays.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
I mean, what is better.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
It's like Disneyland on Disneyland, on Disneyland when you talk
about the holidays.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
It's absolutely spectacular holiday decor, the merchandise, the food and beverage,
the visits from Santa.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Of course, Alexa has joined us from Disneyland with all
of the latest, all the stuff that's new this year
at Disneyland. In terms of family fun in the holiday season.
Speaker 7 (24:22):
Yes, absolutely well the holidays, like you said, they have
begun officially today.
Speaker 8 (24:27):
Everything is turned on. The holidays have started. They are
going now through January sixth.
Speaker 7 (24:31):
There's plenty of time to come and visit and enjoy
the holiday season with your friends and family. Of course,
we have some wonderful returning favorites such as It's a
Small World Holiday over in Disneyland Park, the Nighttime Spectacular,
Believe in Holiday Magic, and then of course over in
Disney California Adventure Park. One of my absolute favorites Festival
of Holidays is back.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
What does that entail?
Speaker 7 (24:53):
That is our festive food market places. So you've got
different cuisines that celebrate different culture. Cool just how they
celebrate the holidays, and we do that of course through food.
There's live performances all throughout the park and it's just
such a fun way to come together.
Speaker 8 (25:09):
What better way to bring people together than food, right?
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I love that I had something like that when I
was in elementary school, where each kid was assigned or
each group of kids was assigned a different country, and
I was around the holidays, and you would bring in
what that country does in the holidays, and it's you
learn about cult Like you said, you learn about cultures,
and you know exactly who doesn't like to sample different foods,
especially some that you've never even tried before.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
My favorite is cars Land.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
When cars Land gets it's holiday on with all of
the snow capped peaks and just the Santa hats that
go on those vehicles. That to me is my that's
a sense memory for me is.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
Watching you look great in a light up necklace. Thank
you by the way, as well, oh you have a
Santa hat with.
Speaker 8 (25:50):
Mickey ears on it, getting in the holiday spirit.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
And then Tiana's Bayou Adventure opens today, Yes.
Speaker 8 (25:56):
Big day for us.
Speaker 7 (25:58):
It's so much fun and it's such a a great,
joyous time. And we were talking about festive spirit, you know,
joy and just being together with family and friends. That
is such a fun attraction and if you really I have,
it's so fun. And one of the things that I've
been saying and noticed is that you know, sometimes in
(26:18):
attractions and in stories, uh, you have that that oh
no moment, and there's there's some sort of you know,
you have to get over this this obstacle. With Tiana's
By You adventure, it is just a party and it's
so fun the whole way, and it's great music and
you know, you.
Speaker 8 (26:35):
Get the thrill of the drops at the same time.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
I remember being terrified of the previous iteration when I
was a kid of like you know that point matt ride.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
We're just like, oh no.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
And you're going up.
Speaker 7 (26:47):
But I think the music might distract you a little
bit and and help with with some of those jitters.
It's just such a fun addition to the park and
and really that whole area.
Speaker 8 (26:56):
It's just there's so much celebrating.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Happening obviously for and beverage is going to play a
big part of it in terms of the themed foods that.
Speaker 8 (27:04):
Are Yes, absolutely so.
Speaker 7 (27:06):
Tiana's Palace of course, we had We've had that open
for every year now, but some new items coming to that.
Speaker 8 (27:11):
I always tell.
Speaker 7 (27:12):
People download that Disneyland app because that is going to
be your best friend, whether you're planning or you're there
at the park, So that's going to give you the
full menu.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
I don't go more than once or twice a year,
but I keep that app. Can you just check it
you're there, want to see how long they'll wait for
the ride is or something.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Just gives me the impression that I'm actually it's a.
Speaker 7 (27:30):
Great planning tool too, of just like okay, what do
I want to eat because there's so many great things,
and then of course mapping out your day literally of
you know, okay, I want to visit this attraction, you know,
going on Haunted Mansion holiday, seeing the Gingerbread house there
that is still up and going.
Speaker 8 (27:45):
So we're just so excited to celebrate that anything.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
January sixth, right is when everything stays up until so
that's really great.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Yeah, those are really memories Disneyland at the holidays that
last forever. I mean, it really is a special time. Alexa,
thank you so much for coming in and spreading the
holiday Disney cheer with us.
Speaker 8 (28:01):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
This is great.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
I really do feel like I'm in a better mood suddenly. Well,
but I don't know about that hat on you.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
Okay, I'll take it off.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
The necklace, yes, the hat. I'm still on the fence.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
You've been listening to The Gary and Shannon Show.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
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 Lap
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to kf
I am six forty the Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app. I am excited about this fight.
What time is this actually going to be on? I
know it says it starts at five? Yeah, five starts
the undercard. From what I saw, I think there are
six undercard bouts. What are the undercard bouts? Is it
also old guys?
Speaker 2 (00:21):
You've never seen them?
Speaker 3 (00:22):
And it's two women's matches?
Speaker 4 (00:25):
I believe, Oh, that's going to be fun to watch
a bunch of listen.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
I haven't been paying enough attention to boxing lately to
know who they are.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
But I had a transgender hostess last night at the restaurant,
and I could totally take her in volleyball.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
How do I know?
Speaker 1 (00:41):
I just all the whole time I was talking to her,
I was thinking, I could totally. I could totally take
you in all the sports. She wasn't very sturdy.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Well, are you suggesting that she was born a man
and has transitioned to a woman. Yes, and you could
you could take her in all the sports? Yeah, you
have no problem with.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Not if that's going to be the one that they
put on the starting five. I want to know how
much I can read that would I've never played volleyball,
That's how confident I am that I could take that person.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
Okay, so how much of this can I read?
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Verbati?
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Oh my gosh, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
I'm gonna I don't have a boss right now, so
I'm just going to hit for the fences.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Let's start with this.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Florida. Former Florida Congressman Matt Gates. He's resigned from Congress
because Donald Trump has said that he wants to nominate
him to be the next attorney general.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
This is in the final stages of the House's ethics report.
They were going to meet today to talk about when
to release this thing. And so now that he has resigned,
the ethics report on him and all his dalliances with
underaged girls goes by the wayside, maybe to die forever.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
The both Republicans and Democrats in the Senate, who obviously
would be in charge of confirming an attorney general, have
come out and said this is an awful pick. Republicans
have been a little bit more careful in the way
that they say it, some of them literally just making
faces when they're approached with it.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
But there's a there's a.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Writer, a conservative pundit guy named Ben Domenich.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
He's a maga guy, Trump guy, something to keep in mind.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
So he wrote a.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Piece in The Federalist. I'll read you the headline and
then the sub headline, and you read the things that
he wrote.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
The headline is Matt Gates is a vile sex pest,
and any Senator who votes for him owns that. The
subhead is crush some viagra and pour the red bull
in your veins.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
His name is Ben Dominic and it goes on to
say this, and I'm just going to read it verbatim.
The creative writing is just so refreshing. It's so refreshing. Anyway,
here we go. I realize that we are occasionally given
to hyperbole about the untow worn nature of politicians.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
But let me be clear.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Matt Gates is a sex trafficking, drug addicted piece of s.
He is abhorrent. His eyes are permanently rimmed with the
red rings of chemical boosters. In person, he smells like
overexposed axe body spray and stale astroglide. The fact that
he boasted on the floor to multiple colleagues in the
House of Representatives of his methods of crushing viagra and
(03:25):
high test red bull to maintain his erection through his
orgasmic evenings is perhaps the least offensive of his many
crimes against womanhood and Christian faith.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
He says, the man has less principles than your average
fentanyl addicted hobo. He likes them under age, and he's
not ashamed about it.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
He's a hypocritical ass with the worst botox money can buy,
pursuing an ever thinner nose and higher cheekbones at every opportunity,
like a real housewive gone mad for fillers.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Ev Every Republican in Washington has an opinion about Matt Gates,
and ninety nine percent of those opinions are keep Matt
Gates away from my wife slash daughter, slash friend and
anyone I care about.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
He is a walking genital warts included as a bonus that.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Is that might be the best line.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
I love it. I'm stealing it.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
If I was merely attempting to count the number of
women I know who have had bad experiences with Matt Gates,
I would run out of fingers and toes.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
If you vote for him, I guess this is directly
to senators. If you vote for him to be the
Attorney General of the United States, you don't just need
your head examined, you need to be committed to a
mental institution.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
The man is absolutely vile.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
There are pools of vomit with more to offer the
earth than this std riddled testament to the failure of
fallen masculinity.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Boom, Oh my gosh, that is so good.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
Now it makes me want to write again. I feel
like it would be kind of.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Cathartic about a dude that you do not like. Yeah,
I mean anybody.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
I mean anybody really, I mean I could bring down
but anyway good. Yeah, it's it's just and that's a
maga guy, you know. And so I'm just wondering.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
And listen, we have, actually, we have gotten some feedback
from people who say that we need to lay off
of Matt Gates, like, you know, he's he's good at
what he does, or he's you know, what is it.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
That he does. He's a showman. He goes on TV
and he screams.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Well, and he has a law degree.
Speaker 4 (05:25):
He has a lot of degree. But that's where it ends.
A lot of people have a low degrees, they don't
practice law, and the.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Idea that a forty two year old guy not that
age has anything to do with it. But in this case,
he doesn't have the experience that I would want in
an attorney general. There are probably a dozen people, even
a dozen lawyers that Donald Trump has employed over the
last ten fifteen years, that would be infinitely more qualified
(05:55):
to be the attorney general than Matt Gates. And this
is a giant This is a giant black eye. I
think for whatever transition Trump is trying to put together.
You think about those first few names that came out,
like at least Defenic to become Ambassador to the UN
or Susie Wiles to be chief of staff. Some of
(06:16):
these made perfect sense, right, they were not unexpected. But
now you're getting into some weird stuff. I noticed outside
of the RFK junior thing for Health and Human Services,
which the announcement came down yesterday, he went completely boring
and decided Doug Bergham for Department of the Interior. Right,
I mean, that's the safest, most first of all, Department
(06:37):
of Interior. Very few people know what that secretary does
or what that department does. So Doug Bergham at the
top of that is like a yawner compared to the
idea that you'd have Matt Gates Eddie Munster looking freak
at the top of your Department of Justice.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Trump likes to make a splash, he likes a showman.
Cabinet positions or tend to be very boring to your
point of Doug Burn, And.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
He wants a little uh, he wants a little publicity,
wants a little chaos. Probably.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
I also think that they're trying to shield Matt Gates
in exchange for his loyalty to Trump from this ethics.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Report, which I understand. Yeah again politically, I can see
the math on that. But then what happens to Matt Gates.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
He's resigning his position at Congress, he gets a lucrative.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Position on a board, a think tank, something, a nice
soft landing spot for people who are loyal to Trump.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Gross.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Yeah, it's very gross.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
That's Washington. That's power and politics. Baby. Tropical Storm Sarah
expected to weaken before it approaches Florida excuse me next week.
The storm is currently slowing down between the Bay Islands
and northern mainland of Honduras, Central America. Right now, being
hit with floods mud slides. It's expected to move to
(07:49):
the coast of Belize over the weekend, but they say
that it is going to be a very slowed downstorm
by the time it hits the mainland.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
It's November hurricane. I mean, it's not going to be
as crazy as the other ones. Lebanon has a caretaker
prime minister right now. Najib Makati has asked Iran to
help secure a ceasefire in the war between Israel and
Hesbel appears to be urging it to press the militant group,
a close ally of Iran, to agreed to a deal
that would require to pull back from the border with Israel.
(08:23):
We'll see if that makes any sort of any sort
of headway.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Donald Trump nominating RFK and Nay Junior to lead the
Department of Health and Human Services. People are losing their
their minds over this, like he's going to take away
all the vaccines or something. He is going to focus
on the industrial food complex, drug companies, the process food
beast that the tobacco industry created.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
He's not.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
It's which is all good things, those those and that's.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
The thing that people are losing because they're saying things
like he's anti vaccine, which he's not. He's vaccine testing
and he's pro parental control when it comes to vaccines
in your kids. That's very different things. I mean, he's
vac If he was anti vaccine, he wouldn't be vaccinated.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
But it's an.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Easy headline to write that he's anti vaccine. The thing
about him that I think is it was telling to
me was this morning. Pharmaceutical stocks dropped multiple percentage points
in their stock prices today just out of the fear
that R. F.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
K Junior would be in charge of Health and Human Services.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
So he's going to crack down on all the phony
lies that you're pedaled when it comes to food and drugs, and.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Think of the think of the amount of drug company
advertisements that we see on television all the time. That's
one of the things that's been that's been a thorn
in his side for a long time too.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
So Elon Musk says he'll receive no compensation for heading
the new Department of Government Efficiency. He wrote on his
platform it will require tedious work.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
He expects to make lots of enemies.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
He'll be working with Vivek Ramaswami to lead DOGE. They're
looking for potential employees, volunteer employees. We reported to you
yesterday basically making nothing and working at eighty hour a
week work weeks.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
The important thing to remember about this that I think
people are losing their minds over speaking of RFK and
losing their minds over that is this is not a
governmental agency. This is not a new position. I mean
it's a new position. It's not a new branch of
government that's opening up. This is simply advisory.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Right, And they're not making any money. They're not making
any government money.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
So I mean there is that aspect of this that
it is it's powerful enough to have the president's ear,
but even the president is not the one who controls
the purse springs in our government.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
It's Congress.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
People are looking to what Musk has done in the
past when it comes to cutting costs at his own
companies to kind of see what the roadmap would be
for reducing the size of government. When he took over
Twitter in twenty twenty two, he ended the company's remote
work policy free office lunches as well. He cut about
(11:18):
fifty percent of Twitter staff, set an expectation for those
who remain to work twenty four to seven. If you
don't want to work, there is the door, let's see.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
He said.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
They said that he's been known to sleep on Tesla's
factory floor. Said he once lived at Tesla's factories for
three years straight to inspire his workers. That's what the
head coaches do, you know what I mean? They sleep
at the facility. That that's how you get people to
work hard. You lead by working hard.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
You ever slept at a radio station? Sure, yes, to me,
that's I wouldn't encourage it. But there are time times
when it's necessary for you to be at where you
work longer than you think right.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
And to have to be there the next morning at
four am. And there's no yes.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
That was you got to sleep on a polluted couch.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
There was long before I knew what kind of pollution
I was dealing with at radio stations. Not to know
now I basically where I has mat suit in every day.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
I was surprised by this. I was looking up the.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Way the government spends money and which departments spend the
most money. I give you three guesses what department, cabinet level,
department spends the most money in the United States government,
or I should say, has the largest budget education.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
No, education is fifth or sixth on the list.
Speaker 4 (12:49):
I don't know. Tell me.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Health and Human Services has the largest budget at according
to twenty twenty, because.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Of all the people in the FDA and otherwise in
bed with the pharmaceutical companies. The oiling up and the
ball washing that goes on is very expensive.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Oiling up one point eight trillion dollars. The Treasury is
second at one point six trillion, social Security one point
five trillion, and the Department of Defense comes in at
the fourth highest military program specifically, but eight hundred and
seventy two million a billion, sorry, eight hundred and seventy
two billion dollars.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
I could not be more excited about the plan to
cut down on government. Is it has gotten way too bloated,
way too expensive, way too redundant.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
Cut cut cut.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Praz please tonight, wait to watch Mike Tyson Jake Paul
until after the show.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
No, I'm gonna probably have it on my phone, just kidding.
I would do that. I'm not rude.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
I'm going to Gary's Adult theater tonight and the same
night as this, Jake Paul might Tyson fight.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
I want to find out what time.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
So if there's six fights before that, how long do
these fights last? I guess it depends on how long
to lasts.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
And their their fight itself is kind of a paired down.
It's probably gonna be like seven thirty.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
It's probably gonna be like right in the middle of
your show. Is there an intermission?
Speaker 2 (14:11):
There is, Yeah, but it's only about ten or twelve minutes.
It's not long.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
I'm I think all Mike Tyson needs this one punch.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
Watching that guy hit things hurts me.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
The oldest sport is getting a freshening up. When you
look at this fight and what it means, make no mistake,
it's not about boxing. It's about publicity, right that. Yeah,
that is absolutely true.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
We'll talk more about this Jake Paul Mike Tyson fight
coming up tonight on Netflix. Hundreds of Vegas hotel workers
have gone on strike at a casino near the Strip,
the first open ended strike for the Culinary Workers Union
in more than twenty years. It includes about seven hundred
who went on strike this morning at the Virgin Hotels
Las Vegas. Strike comes after a very highly publicized, in
(15:00):
bitter fight for a new contract that started over a
year ago. So as of right now, Housekeeper's cocktail waitresses, porters,
Bellman and Moore on the picket lines as of this morning.
Union says he's trying to get the same pay raises
and benefits that it's gotten for some of the other
Vegas members Since last November.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Well, Mike Tyson has slapped Jake Paul in the face
during a final stare down as they had their way
in last night.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Yeah, I figured there wasn't enough publicity around this thing.
You might as well throw in a little slap. And
by the way, his slaps look hard.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Tyson waded in at two thirty three. Jake Paul too twenty,
he's twenty seven. Tyson's fifty eight. And Tyson still looks
like Mike Tyson.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
He has not I know, he's a little slower. He's
complained about you know, some of his workouts are taking
their toll, Like he's been having these massive workouts and
had a hard time walking after a couple of them.
He had, Remember, he had ulcer flare up, which is
why they had to delay the fight from July to
to tonight. It is not going to go well for however,
(16:12):
this ends up, it's not going to go well for
Jake Paul. This is a sanctioned fight by the state
of Texas. They're doing it at the house that Jerry
built at at and T Stadium there in Dallas, and
there are three fights on the undercard. There are some
preliminary fights I guess that are going to be in
that same ring, but you're not going to see them.
So the three fights that you're gonna see on the
(16:34):
undercard near as Gooyat against Winderson, Nunez, Mario Barrios versus
Abo Ramos. That'll be a WC, WBC welterweight title, Katie
Taylor and Amanda Serrano, the ladies get into it, WBCWBAWBO
and IBF junior welterweight titles on the line for that one.
And then Tyson against Jake Paul. Tyson has a fifty
(16:58):
and six record, Jake Paul has ten and one.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
Mike Tyson grew up fighting.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
He He says his first fight was with a big
kid who had pulled the head off one of Tyson's pigeons.
By the time he was thirteen, Mike Tyson had been
arrested thirty eight times. Jake Paul grew up in Ohio
doing prank videos with his brother for YouTube. I don't
(17:25):
care how much you train, you don't train the fight
into you the way that Mike Tyson.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
So it was raised having the fight in him.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
There was a great line.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
I mean, there's been all kinds of pre fight promotion
for this, obviously because of the connection to YouTube. But Netflix,
i mean, they know what they're doing when they promote this.
There was a video of Mike Tyson sitting on a
couch with a couple of his trainers watching a Jake
Paul fight, and post fight, Jake Paul looks at the
camera and says, I love you, Mike Tyson, but I'm
(17:59):
coming for you. You're the legend, but I'm about to take
your throne.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
Something to you know whatever.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Bs, this guy wants to spl stupid and Mike Tyson
just zero reaction on his face, not a laugh, not
an angry face.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
No, no, he just so.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
They say to him, Hey, Mike, hey champ, what do
you think And Mike Tyson says something along the lines
of he's not He's a manufactured killer. He's a TV killer.
He's a YouTube killer. That's what has made him a killer.
He says, I was a natural born killer.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
And it's a When he says it, he means it,
and it's terrified.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
He does if Mike Tyson, listen, if Mike Tyson died
in the ring or knew that he was close to
death in the ring because of the damage that Jake
Paul was doing. Because he can Jake paulk he can hit,
and he's a big fella.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
He could inflict damage on Mike Tyson.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Mike Tyson, it feels like would be a guy who
would gladly die in the ring in order to prove
a point against this guy.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Let's not forget Mike Tyson's pre fight ritual. His chauffeur
Rudy Gonzalez, claimed that Tyson would have to have sex
in the locker room before fights to loosen up and
disengage some of his strength. Rudy Gonzalez said that Tyson
would sometimes say, if I do not get laid, I
will kill this guy right now. I need something to
(19:26):
calm me down. Essentially, and he still nearly killed everybody.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Tyson is such a one track mind. I mean, he's
just he's one note. He was doing an interview with
a young.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Wait really quick, go on, I just have a quick
little dovetail from the sex thing. Recently, it's been reported
that in training for his fight against Jake Paul, he
gave up sex for discipline. Oh no, he told Forbes
he hasn't had sex weeks. Guy, he's gonna die. Jake
Paul's gonna die. And I feel bad that I'm smiling
(20:05):
when I say that, because there's a weird thing A
pull boxing pulls out of you. Right, it's this weird like.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
They're using They're wearing pillows, they're doing fifteen ounce or
fourteen ounce gloves.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
I think it is. The rounds are only two minutes.
I mean, there are softguard punches in Joe Biden's food.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
There are safeguards in place to protect Jake Paul. It's
not to protect Tyson. No is to protect Jake Paul.
Speaker 4 (20:28):
I don't care. Man.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Tyson did an interview with this young girl, Jazzy Gara.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
I don't know who she is, but she's just.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Young kid journalist kind of thing, standing there asking the
champ about what's this going to be about.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
Well, when your return to the ring for this fight,
you are setting a monumental opportunity for kids my age
to see the legend. Mike Tyson in the ring for
the first time, what type of legacy would you like
to leave behind when it's all set and done.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
A reminder, this kid is like twelve years old. Tyson
either doesn't see age or forgets the fact he's talking
to a little kid.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
Well, I don't know. I don't believe in the word legacy.
I just think that's another word for ego. That's just
some word everybody grabbed on too, and I was used
every five seconds. It means absolutely nothing to me. I'm
just passing through. I'm gonna die and it's gonna be over.
Who cares about legacy after that?
Speaker 2 (21:21):
I'm gonna die with a.
Speaker 6 (21:23):
Big ego, So I'm gonna die. I want people to
think that I'm this, I'm great, I'm no way nothing
where You're dead with that, absolutely nothing. Our legacy is nothing.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
It's a kid. Mike.
Speaker 5 (21:35):
Well, thank you so much for sharing that. That is
something that I have not heard before someone say that
as an answered.
Speaker 6 (21:40):
Can you really imagine some men saying I want my
legacy to be this way When I your dead, you
think I really want to think about you. I want
people to think about me when I'm gone. Who the
cares about men?
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Oh that's so good.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Hey, And for once, it's like he's not the villain
in the fight, like Jake Paul's the villain.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Yeah, that's a good point. I hadn't thought about that,
but that he is. I don't know if i'd say
he's the lovable character, but I know I don't know
anybody pulling for Jake Paul.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
I think the hangover gave him a lot of goodwill.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Tyson.
Speaker 4 (22:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
Later on in the show, by the way, we haven't
talked to Rich Mrada in a long time.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
I'm super excited. I thought about this driving in yesterday.
We should got Rich Marada on. I forgot about it,
And this morning you're like, we got Rich Murda on.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Rich Maraud a longtime boxing analyst and of course long
time voice of sports here on KFI. We'll talk with
Rich coming up a little bit later in the show
about this upcoming fie. First it was Beyonce, now ringo
star is talking about releasing an entire country album.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
I said an interview he was still with us.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
What I didn't I don't know. We're down a couple
beatles aren't we.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
We are, but we all still still have a couple.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
He sat in an interview with the AP that he's
put a bit of country in most everything he's done.
So he's eighty four. I was not far off. This
entire country album is not a big stretch, he says.
The project began when he bumped through it into his
old friend classic country officionado t Bone Burnett and asked
Burnett to write a song, and Burnett came back with
(23:13):
nine songs.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
Nothing says country like Liverpool.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
The resulting album is called Look Up by Ringo Star.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
It'll come out in a couple months.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
Well, this is exciting.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Nothing spruce is up the day like a pair of
Mickey ears.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Right, yeah, never, I will say this. I don't think
I've ever seen you wear Mickey ears before.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
I had not even a year ago. Sure, no, no.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
Is it a good look?
Speaker 2 (23:43):
It looks great?
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Good and I even come on, Mickey ears look great
on everybody.
Speaker 4 (23:48):
Not that you're taking away my comments.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
Sorry, that's not what I meant.
Speaker 4 (23:51):
Then you take it away, that's not what I meant.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Well, we are joined by our friends at Disneyland right now,
because this is the best time of year at Disneyland,
the holidays.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
I mean, what is better.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
It's like Disneyland on Disneyland, on Disneyland when you talk
about the holidays.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
It's absolutely spectacular holiday decor, the merchandise, the food and beverage,
the visits from Santa.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Of course, Alexa has joined us from Disneyland with all
of the latest, all the stuff that's new this year
at Disneyland. In terms of family fun in the holiday season.
Speaker 7 (24:22):
Yes, absolutely well the holidays, like you said, they have
begun officially today.
Speaker 8 (24:27):
Everything is turned on. The holidays have started. They are
going now through January sixth.
Speaker 7 (24:31):
There's plenty of time to come and visit and enjoy
the holiday season with your friends and family. Of course,
we have some wonderful returning favorites such as It's a
Small World Holiday over in Disneyland Park, the Nighttime Spectacular,
Believe in Holiday Magic, and then of course over in
Disney California Adventure Park. One of my absolute favorites Festival
of Holidays is back.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
What does that entail?
Speaker 7 (24:53):
That is our festive food market places. So you've got
different cuisines that celebrate different culture. Cool just how they
celebrate the holidays, and we do that of course through food.
There's live performances all throughout the park and it's just
such a fun way to come together.
Speaker 8 (25:09):
What better way to bring people together than food, right?
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I love that I had something like that when I
was in elementary school, where each kid was assigned or
each group of kids was assigned a different country, and
I was around the holidays, and you would bring in
what that country does in the holidays, and it's you
learn about cult Like you said, you learn about cultures,
and you know exactly who doesn't like to sample different foods,
especially some that you've never even tried before.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
My favorite is cars Land.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
When cars Land gets it's holiday on with all of
the snow capped peaks and just the Santa hats that
go on those vehicles. That to me is my that's
a sense memory for me is.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
Watching you look great in a light up necklace. Thank
you by the way, as well, oh you have a
Santa hat with.
Speaker 8 (25:50):
Mickey ears on it, getting in the holiday spirit.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
And then Tiana's Bayou Adventure opens today, Yes.
Speaker 8 (25:56):
Big day for us.
Speaker 7 (25:58):
It's so much fun and it's such a a great,
joyous time. And we were talking about festive spirit, you know,
joy and just being together with family and friends. That
is such a fun attraction and if you really I have,
it's so fun. And one of the things that I've
been saying and noticed is that you know, sometimes in
(26:18):
attractions and in stories, uh, you have that that oh
no moment, and there's there's some sort of you know,
you have to get over this this obstacle. With Tiana's
By You adventure, it is just a party and it's
so fun the whole way, and it's great music and
you know, you.
Speaker 8 (26:35):
Get the thrill of the drops at the same time.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
I remember being terrified of the previous iteration when I
was a kid of like you know that point matt ride.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
We're just like, oh no.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
And you're going up.
Speaker 7 (26:47):
But I think the music might distract you a little
bit and and help with with some of those jitters.
It's just such a fun addition to the park and
and really that whole area.
Speaker 8 (26:56):
It's just there's so much celebrating.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Happening obviously for and beverage is going to play a
big part of it in terms of the themed foods that.
Speaker 8 (27:04):
Are Yes, absolutely so.
Speaker 7 (27:06):
Tiana's Palace of course, we had We've had that open
for every year now, but some new items coming to that.
Speaker 8 (27:11):
I always tell.
Speaker 7 (27:12):
People download that Disneyland app because that is going to
be your best friend, whether you're planning or you're there
at the park, So that's going to give you the
full menu.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
I don't go more than once or twice a year,
but I keep that app. Can you just check it
you're there, want to see how long they'll wait for
the ride is or something.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Just gives me the impression that I'm actually it's a.
Speaker 7 (27:30):
Great planning tool too, of just like okay, what do
I want to eat because there's so many great things,
and then of course mapping out your day literally of
you know, okay, I want to visit this attraction, you know,
going on Haunted Mansion holiday, seeing the Gingerbread house there
that is still up and going.
Speaker 8 (27:45):
So we're just so excited to celebrate that anything.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
January sixth, right is when everything stays up until so
that's really great.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Yeah, those are really memories Disneyland at the holidays that
last forever. I mean, it really is a special time. Alexa,
thank you so much for coming in and spreading the
holiday Disney cheer with us.
