Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
A M six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Let's start with this just a very.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Quick oh my goodness with a drum roll.
Speaker 4 (00:14):
Thursday, we are doing our next news and Bruce coming up,
like three or four days news and bruises at BJ's
restaurant at Bruehouse in Huntington Beach, the one on Beach Boulevard.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
We absolutely packed that.
Speaker 4 (00:27):
Place last time, and we'll pack it again this Thursday,
won't we.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Oh, it's gonna be so much fun. It's kind of
like our home away from home. They took the mural
off though at this BJS, so you no longer see
the man who's half naked with the scythe in the field.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
So I invite everyone to.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Dress like him. Everyone, take off your shirts, bring your scythes, no,
bring clothes, and come come out to BJ's.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Security won't allow sides.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Oh okay, well maybe you carry the scythe in your heart.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
That's a better idea.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Yeah, Well, hopefully the Dodgers have their sides with them.
It is game one of the NLCS. Tim Kates, the
voice of your Los Angeles Dodgers host of Kate's and
sax Saxon k.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
Oh over changing. I'm changing Kates and Saxon the A. Thanks, Shannon,
You're welcome.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Appreciate that.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Does Steve Sachs know about your batting average and know
about your CIF champion status?
Speaker 5 (01:21):
I mean, how am I supposed to talk about that
when the guy won Rookie of the Year in the
National League and then won two World Series championships, most
notably nineteen eighty eight. I mean, how am I supposed
to say? Oh, yeah, a saxy, I had four fifty two.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
My senior year. Show him your tattoo. That's sex simple.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
He's like, what's that four to fifty two? Part funny?
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Not just that.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Let me tell you about the spring of ninety six.
I don't like talking about it.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
But Kates is like, and here's the kicker. I was
a junior.
Speaker 5 (01:50):
Yeah, I know you spent fourteen years in the vague leagues,
but let me tell you about one spring in nineteen
ninety six where I hit over four fifty.
Speaker 6 (01:59):
I would totally be guy that wantedn't just tell everybody
that would be all the time, all right, Blake Snell
right going for the Dodgers tonight.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Do we know who's pitching for the Brewers yet?
Speaker 7 (02:07):
Now?
Speaker 5 (02:07):
They're playing a little game of cat and mouse. They
are not releasing their roster until the very latest possible moment,
Bill Belichick, Yeah, very much. And they got this manager,
Pat Murphy, who was a college manager, college head coach,
came from Arizona State, Notre Dame before that, and kind
of just like a, I don't know, he's manages differently.
And so they don't have a lot of starting pitching.
They only have two real starters, so they're probably gonna
(02:30):
go opener right into Priester, who's to become their young
right handed guy that they go to here in the postseason.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
So we don't know who they're gonna throw.
Speaker 5 (02:37):
But they're like the Dodgers a year ago, didn't have
a lot of starting pitching, relying a lot on openers
and long guys out of the bullpen and just kind
of piecing it together every single game.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
When you look at the matchup here, what is your
biggest concern and what is your biggest tell?
Speaker 5 (02:52):
Yeah, we got this starting pitching. They've got more starting
pitching than the Milwaukee Brewers. They got an abundance of
course with Blake Snell, and you're saving Otani for a
possible game for him, and that's like an embarrassment of riches.
And you still got Tyler Glass. Now you can throw
in game three. You got an Immett she and you
got a Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
You can go to.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
The abundance of starting and pitching is huge for the Dodgers,
but they need those guys to be good. You can't
have Yama Moto go out there. Last time he was
in Milwaukee in July. Two thirds of an inning, Yeah,
forty on pitches and he was out of the gates.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
That cannot happen.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Did they sweep that series?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
They swept all.
Speaker 5 (03:25):
Six games, three at in Milwaukee and the three AT
Dodgers dited him the first three games after the all time.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Does that play into anything in the head space?
Speaker 5 (03:32):
Can't, because it's a different team. Blake Snell didn't pitch
against them, Yamamoto was terrible, Otani didn't pitch against them.
Max Munty was hurt, Tommy Edmond was hurt. It's a
complete for the five relievers that the Dodgers threw against
them in those games aren't even on the postseason roster,
aren't even around anymore. They're like, you know, selling insurance somewhere.
So it's a different looking Dodger.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
But speaking up that bullpen, is that still you think
the weakest part right now, the weakest link for the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Yeah, it's it's.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
It's still an issue because if they don't get a
strong performance out of Snell or Yamamoto, they're going to
eat into that bullpen. And you're talking about extra innings
for Clayton Kershaw in October. You're talking about image sheen
being used a lot here. I mean, you're.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Gonna get to Bessia Robleski.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
That's the sound of concern that if you're up, is okay,
but it's not somebody I'd want to go to in
a crunch situation. Tried in the same deal, Well that
the Dodgers.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Just released a roster and they're going with an extra
pitcher on this roster just to have that extra arm.
It's Ben Casparius, who wasn't on the wild card roster,
wasn't on the DS roster and quite frankly wasn't even
around in September because they sent it back to Triple
A to kind of give him some rest because they
used him an awful lot during the regular season up
until September first. So Ben Casparius added to the roster
(04:49):
for an extra arm here in this round.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Last night's game Mariners in the Toronto Blue Jays, Mariners
won that game. They talked a lot about Julio Rodriguez
not having shown up much in the previous two series.
Shoey Otani's in that same position where he's the guy
that everybody wants to make headlines, and he's been.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
Quiet, one eight average. He's got two extra base hits.
They were two home runs in Game one against the
Reds in Game one of the wild Card round. He
has done nothing since then, and they still won the
series against the Phillies. Now that series with the Seattle Mariners,
ho about last night, Why are you pitching to Cal
Rawley Euroup won nothing in the sixth Innian and fifth
(05:28):
Innian and you're pitching to cal Ray. How about you
just nibble away on the outside part of the plate.
Don't let him hit the ball, because when he hits it,
he hits it four hundred and fifty feet. It's a
tie game, and then you lose the game.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Miami. Why are you pitching to him? My wife, the
game was on.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
I'm sitting at the dining room table and I'm eating
I'm listening to it. My wife wasn't paying attention to it,
but she was sitting in front of the TV. The
cal Raley hits a home run and the guy calling
the game goes a home run for the Big Dumper,
and she starts cracking up laughing.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
That was Joe David, by the way, on the Call
Dodge broadcast, right.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
It was Joe Davis was It was the funniest anecdote
from that game.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
It's great the Big Dumper, I mean perfect, what a
great story. I just hope that they go all the
way because it's going to be sad watching the Mariners
fans in that game that I stayed up till two
in the morning or whatever watching on was.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
That Friday Friday night.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Oh my gosh, watching those fans in Seattle, it looks
like their whole soul is on the field, and I
love to see that. You know, they hadn't won in
twenty four years, since nineteen ninety nine, and just I
love that and it gives you chills when you get
a drought like that in any major sport. But it's
(06:42):
gonna feel that much better when the Dodgers crush all
of those souls in the World Series, right.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
I don't get it.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (06:51):
I guess I can't relate to people openly crying, grown
men crying. Oh, I keep out their getting to the ALCS.
Follow comedian on Twitter who didn't want anybody to tell
them who won the game and then got emotional afterwards.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Because you're a Dodger fan. Dodgers are perennially in the playoffs. Like,
you don't know what it's like to go on a
nineteen year drought.
Speaker 5 (07:12):
You just don't, okay, So like if the Chargers get
to the Super Bowl, are we gonna see Charger fans
crying everywhere? Because it hasn't happened very often in their
franchise history. You're trying to think of an l A
story that's the equivalent of people getting emotional. They're going
to cry over going to it at ALCS or some
LA fans.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Do not cry over that stuff. But you got to
go to the markets where there's not as much going on.
You know, in Seattle, they've got the Seahawks, they've got
the Marrits. I've seen them cry over both teams. There's
something happens to the Dodgers in the World Series.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Everybody's gonna turn around and become a Lakers fan immediately, right,
or they're going to go to the Kings. There's something
else going on all the time in Seattle.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
What are they going to do?
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Sit there in the rain and jump off bridges.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
Everybody's gonna pleasant buy Sam Donald jersey or.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Something like that.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Hey, that's a good jersey to get. He's worked out.
How about those stories, Sam Donald Baker may Field.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I love it. I actually want to cry so emotional.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
First pitch tonight for Dodgers in Milwaukee. Game one just
after five o'clock, and you'll hear it, Tim and everybody.
Speaker 5 (08:15):
Do you have Morocco Casino Dodgers on deck? Starts at
four o'clock with the cast of care. Did you ever
call him Saxy every time? Okay? All right, so the
point where my wife has told me a little weird,
stop calling him Sax.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
You sound really weird calling.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
To get in there.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
Probably Mariners Blue Jays. Game two starts just after two
o'clock today. Thanks Tim, as always, Thank you guys.
Speaker 8 (08:38):

Speaker 1 (08:44):

on Thursday. When does the rain start? When does the
weather kick in?
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Tomorrow? Tonight? Tonight?
Speaker 3 (08:53):
President Trump was going to answer for me.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Oh, he's he's discussing what's going on in Sharmel Shake, Egypt.
Speaker 7 (08:59):
Right?
Speaker 8 (08:59):
Yes, okay, but are you actually going to do the
news and Bruce, yes? Or are you just going to
tell us on Thursday morning when everybody's there?
Speaker 7 (09:08):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Sorry, guys, we didn't get the permit we needed to
drink beer and.
Speaker 7 (09:12):
Have a radio show.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Say that.
Speaker 6 (09:14):
I know, I know, how ridiculous is that? Like you
need to drink beer and have a radio show. City
of Huntington Beach is a city of freedom. We do
not need a permit to do a news and Bruce
like join us.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
I'd like to see those two cities get get caught
in a dark alley somewhere.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Oh man, Huntington would cut. I don't know though, West Covina.
I don't play with them either.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
But yes, we will be out there at Huntington Beach

Speaker 1 (10:22):
We spent about sixteen seconds on this last week at
some point I don't remember.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
It was like a fever dream.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
But there was an emergency World Naked Bike Ride in
Portland that went off this weekend. Usually it's in the summer,
but this was an emergency edition. They had to have
an emergency naked bike ride in Portland due.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
To the ice.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Activity in the city, so they had to get naked
and get on their bikes and ride to the Immigration
and Customs Enforcement building yesterday. So there are people on
their bikes naked. It rained a bit, so they have
their plastic ponchos over their naked bits on their bikes.
There are runners, They're people holding signs that'd say the
(11:04):
only ice, the only ice I.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Need is for these nips. And that's that.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
I just wanted to make sure everyone knew, you, guys.
The pictures are vast, like street.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Like they also need a nude diet. Like how many
people is that?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
I mean, that's a charter of a mile of complete
covering of a street of naked runners and bicyclists.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
Being from Portland, I've seen this before. It's not something
you want to see.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Yeah, I gotta tell you. It's not flattering image of
the super modest.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
No, it is not.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
And I saw I saw this bike ride when I
lived in Seattle through Fremont and but it was sparsely populated.
I mean there was maybe one hundred people bicyclists here
and there. This is like stacked naked Portland people in
mass and it is a lot, guys, And.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
I wonder do they feel like there's a lot of
attention now on what they're what their plight is I
mean you mentioned that they this is an emergency version
of the naked.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
I don't understand why they feel the need to make
it naked, because that takes away It looks like an
unseerious to use the word, it looks like an unserious
protest when you take off all your clothes because you
know what, You're no longer making it about the issue,
You're making it about your dangly bits. How am I
to focus on what Ice is doing, sir? When I
can see your breasts and the dangly bits between your
(12:39):
legs on that banana seat, Like, what am I supposed
to think about? You need to make the main thing
the main thing. Keep the main thing the main thing.
When you're naked and your genitals are exposed, that's not it.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Would be my message.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
It was aggressive.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
I'm not the one who took my clothes off and
donned a bicycle for protest.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
And we're all thankful for that, I know, But my
point is that was hurtful.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Well you on a Wednesday that.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
It's not even ten am, we're not even done with
the first half hour, and you're already being hurtful.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
I thank you.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
I saw I heard I should say what you did
this weekend?
Speaker 2 (13:17):
You said it was for me, and it was nice.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
Yesterday happened to be the tenth anniversary of this show. Yes,
this show, well, okay, twelfth, so twenty fifteen was the
first day of this show.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
We'll bring it up and then we're going to leave
it alone for peace and respect. But when I got
the news that Diane Keaton had passed, oh there's that too,
I mistakenly thought that that was our ten year birthday,
and I text Gary, is today the day of our
tenth birthday? And then this happened question mark and he said, no,
(13:53):
the birthday is tomorrow, and I thought, we do not
have that on our conscience because it was weighing heavy
for a moment. That's all we're going to say about
that for respect. Now, Yesterday was the actual birthday. Yesterday
was the actual birthday.
Speaker 6 (14:08):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
To the game, Yes, And you made a reference to
a player whose hand has been broken and is wrapped
up like a big club on.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
It left hand.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
I think it is, yeah, And you said Elijah Molden safety.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
You said he is going out there.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Like Sano's with a big glove on his hand.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Basically and you said you just did a Thanos reference,
and I said that was for you.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
It was a gift for our birthday.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
I also realized yesterday when I downloaded the John Candy
documentary on Amazon Prime.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Have you seen it?
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Haven't yet?
Speaker 1 (14:40):
You're gonna cry. It's really good. But can you learn
things about John Candy that you didn't learn? It's called
I like me anyway. I learned from watching that, and
they do a little bit about space Balls that maybe
Do you think I got my inspiration for mister bumber
Puss from John Candy's character of Barf and Spaceballs? Do
(15:03):
you think it was somewhere in the recesses of my mind? No,
I think it was very at the forefront of your mind.
I feel like we've already had this discussion because when
you said half man, half cat, and I remember saying
something along the lines of you mean like Barf from
Spaceballs and just got a blanket.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
I did not connect it. I did not care.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Okay, well, then maybe it is in the back of
your mind somewhere. Maybe it was maybe not for.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
From but like watching some of those scenes, just so
you know, mister bumber Puss would be completely different, like
he's a different cat. Wouldn't honestly comic relief the way
it would not be. No, no, mister bumber Puss is
actually something where you'd feel weird feelings for having, you know,
kind of like the sexualized version of cats.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Okay, uh.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
When we come back met from that to world peace,
President Trump is signing the twenty point Plan in Charmel Shake,
Egypt to bring peace to the Middle East hostages. At
least the live hostages were returned hours ago. He's taking
credit for three thousand years worth of wartime having come
(16:13):
to an end. Of course he is, he said it.
Maybe it was three thousand, maybe it was two hundred,
maybe it was fifty.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
But it's over. Yeah. Anyway, we'll talk about that.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
And here some of the comments that he made to
the Israeli Kanesse a little bit earlier today as well.
Speaker 8 (16:27):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
We are actually, like you said, going to get some
weather a little bit later next hour. We'll give you
an idea of what it is that we can expect. Also,
that crash, very dramatic crash at the helicopter in Huntington
Beach amazed that it was not deadly. People were injured,
but it was not a deadly crash. It was slow,
weirdly slow, and compared to the helicopter crash that we
(16:57):
saw just last week in Sacramento, it seemed it seems slow.
Speaker 7 (17:01):
The two of you are always not getting the point
of what's going on. It's not the point of the
organ by a ride just to be naked. It's to
mock Ice.
Speaker 4 (17:12):
No, No, we get it, and we get it's to
mock Ice. They want to mock President Trump. They want
to mock what's going on. It's just an unseerious way
to do so.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
And I'm quite.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
Sure how getting naked mock's Ice. Well, it's that they want,
I don't. They want to bring attention to what ice,
they say ICE is doing in Portland and Greater Oregon
all over the country.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
And have that large of a protest in front of
ICE headquarters totally clothed and get our attention.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Yeah, that that's what. Yeah, and keep it on.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
What the what the thing is which is Ice, because
if you take off your clothes, you're a distraction.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Period.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Yeah, I agree. I she was just very quiet about
the whole thing, and I didn't know she was trying
to be quiet.
Speaker 7 (17:57):
It's not the point of the organ by pride.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
I think it too long.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
I maybe her partner is still sleeping and she's under
the covers and she's like this, I'm going to call them.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
You guys, it's not the naked bike ride. You don't
get it. It's because she doesn't want to wake them up.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
But she's listening to the show.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Yeah in err headphones.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
Oh okay, that's actually not it. It's not an awful take.
Speaker 9 (18:22):
Congratulations now, at lasts, not only for Israelis, but also
for Palestidians and for many others. The long and painful
nightmare is finally over, and as the dust settles, the
smoke phades, the debris is removed, and the ashes cleaned
(18:43):
from the air, the day that breaks on a region transformed,
and a beautiful and much brighter future appears suddenly within
your reach. This is now a very exciting time for
Israel and for the entire Middle East, because all across
the Middle East, the forces of chaos, terra and ruin
(19:06):
that have plagued the region for decades now stand weakened, isolated,
and totally defeated.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
That was President Trump in front of the Israeli Kanesset,
they're basically their parliamentary body, with a big speech today.
This signifies what we believe is the latest ceasefire to
be agreed to between Amas and Israel. All twenty of
the remaining living hostages held in Gaza were turned over.
(19:34):
I think only four bodies were turned over, but the
others are expected to be handed over as part of
this deal. While buses carrying dozens of freed Palestinian prisoners
arrived in the West Bank and Gaza. Israel is eventually
going to release nineteen hundred prisoners and detainees as part
(19:56):
of this ceasefire deal. The President made that speech earlier
today in Israel, but then flew to Charmel Shake, Egypt,
where he just in the last several minutes or so
officially signed the peace deal with representatives there in Egypt.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
The government shutdown is going to be felt finally this week.
The shutdown has closed some Smithsonian museums and it is going.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
To result in miss paychecks. This week.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
We mentioned with all of the disruptions caused by air
traffic controllers not going to work, calling and sick what
have you.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
They were still getting paid.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Now we're seeing people missing paychecks for the first time.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Have you also seen what's going on in Yosemite?
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yes, illegal base jumpers, squatters are all taken over. We'll
get into all of the latest who will miss a
paycheck and where you'll be able to see the government
shut down hit your life this week.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
Hey, Gary and Shannon will continue in just a moment.
Speaker 8 (21:01):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
I let it get to me. That's the thing. Dianne
Katon died over the weekend.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
Yeah, what did you get to you?
Speaker 2 (21:17):
I let that get to me.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
Oh okay.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
It was sad.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
It was sad and shocking. I mean, she's seventy nine.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Was seventy nine, But still you didn't hear any reports
of her demise.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
And that was that was more the headline last night
and this morning than any other, which was the speed
of the decline in health that some people saw her
they said a few months ago, and it wasn't awful.
I believe that she lost a house, or at least
her house was damaged in the fires back in January,
and then that caused a certain amount of stress. On
(21:51):
her and she already wasn't doing very well apparently, but
again she was very very quiet about her health.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
But I mean, just seventy nine doesn't kill people anymore.
Seventy nine is not a time when a lot of
people in reasonable health will die of old age.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
It doesn't happen. So what do we know what the
deal was?
Speaker 1 (22:11):
I know she had talked publicly about some struggles, but
you know, we didn't hear cancer or anything like.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
That, at least not yet. I mean, I don't know
if her family will come out and say something. But locally,
former LA Unified Superintendent Austin Buttner is going to run
for mayor against Karen Bass as of right now, the
most high profile candidate to officially enter the race. He
said that LA is a drift and that the city
government is failing to meet the basic needs of residents.
(22:41):
He knows a lot about politics in La specific Austin
Butner was once deputy mayor under Via Ragosa. He was
the public suerre oft the La Times at one point,
and then spent time as the superintendent of Schools for
LA from twenty eighteen to twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Well, the government shutdown can use, and now we're learning
more about the effects. Tens of thousands of federal employees
have taken retirement or they're voluntary departures on top of
the latest layoffs that are happening because of this, which
is putting a huge strain on agencies. It's being called
(23:20):
a max mass exodus, unprecedented in its scale. One hundred
and fifty four thousand federal employees who accepted buyout offers
and we're removed from the payroll as of the end
of last month.
Speaker 4 (23:35):
This specifically is going to hit this week because of payday,
for example, for military men and women, hundreds of thousands
of members of the military Reserves, National Guard October fifteenth,
and it is it's that kind of very specific date
when the paycheck does not come in that a lot
(23:56):
of people start to feel that pinch. And it's not
just those people who are not getting paid, it's those
people who work in places where that money would have gone,
businesses that they would go to, restaurants, et cetera.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Yosemite has reportedly descended into chaos since the shutdown. There
have been increasing reports of illegal base jumping from El Capitan.
You've got squatters filling up campgrounds, climbers using half done
cables without permits. It sounds like for the most part,
(24:28):
except for the squatters and the campgrounds. Although how you
would tell a squatter at a campground from a normal
person in a campground I don't know.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Other than that, it.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Seems like Darwinism is having its day at Yosemite, well.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
Other than those people who are there by definition or squatters,
because the park is supposed to be closed and they're
not supposed to be there.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
I guess I.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
Thought they were keeping the National parks open.
Speaker 7 (24:50):
The parks are open, they just have furloughed a lot
of the pop right r.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
They're open that There's just they're not as well policed,
maybe enough I've ever seen them be policed, but.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Not police is the wrong word.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
I guess.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Supervised is a better word. But yeah, no, the parks
are open. It's just that people are taking advantage.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
I guess.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
One park employee spoke to sf Gate on condition of anonymity,
so they were only aware of a single volunteer patrolling
the entire park. To my point, you hear them before
you see them. According to a guy who works in
the park, the base jumpers that there are at least
(25:37):
a dozen illegal base jumps in the park. Last week
he said, do you hear them before you see them?
In the parachute pops and there's no more noise.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
The climbers.
Speaker 4 (25:46):
Also, social media posts show a bunch of climbers backed
up on the half domeed cables that used to be
the norm until about fifteen years ago they operated or
opened up a permit system. The problem that, according to
some of the people who know what they're doing, is
that people will break the rules. That poses a danger
because others are then either forced to rescue them or
(26:08):
even recover their bodies in the event of an accident.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
It's kind of weird that they I don't know.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
I don't know this community, but you'd think that people
who delight in places like national parks understand the beauty
and the importance of them and wouldn't want to ruin
that for other people and.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Would police it themselves.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Yeah, I'll bet you there is some of that going on.
But then you're going to get some yahoos out of
Clovis or something like that.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
There the Clovis Yahoo's.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
It's the gateway to the Sierra.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
There are a lot of gateways to the Sierra. As
it turns out, there's a lot of something I've learned.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
We do have some weather coming in on the way.
We'll talk about that as we get into the top.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Of the out tail.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Rain, oh, tornadoes, that's a lot. That's a lot for us.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
When I was picking up coffee in Fort Ladale, yes.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Oh, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
I was in Fort Lauderdale just yesterday, just Yester Morn.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
The woman behind the counter making the coffee, was talking
to her friend or her coworker, and said, what is
it with people around here? They don't know how to
drive in the rain. So it's so there's some rain, Okay,
people don't know how to drive. And I'm like, does
everybody have the same conversation in every city, Like in
San Francisco, in La and Seattle, all the places I've lived,
everyone has the same conversation. People don't know how to
(27:29):
drive here when it rains, it happens everywhere. No one
thinks anyone knows how to drive when it rains anywhere.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
Yeah, and the percentages are like ninety percent of people
believe that ninety percent of the people don't know how
to drive in the rain.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Yeah, there's some Prosser.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
There's so much it's comic. Call gotta mean Uh. Thursday, Thursday, Thursday.
We are out and about once again. All the permits
have been pulled. We can guarantee we're gonna be live
at Bjay's Restaurant and Ruehause in Hauntington Beach, the One
on Beach.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
We packed it in August. We'll pack it again.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Last time I was there, I hit someone with my car.
Speaker 4 (28:05):
Oh, you never know what's gonna happen. This time, you're
gonna be armed.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
I'm always armed.
Speaker 4 (28:11):
Good answer. Gary and Shannon will continue right after this.
You've been listening to The Gary and Shannon Show. You
can always hear us live on KFI AM six forty
nine am to one pm every Monday through Friday, and
anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio ap
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
A M six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Let's start with this just a very.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Quick oh my goodness with a drum roll.
Speaker 4 (00:14):
Thursday, we are doing our next news and Bruce coming up,
like three or four days news and bruises at BJ's
restaurant at Bruehouse in Huntington Beach, the one on Beach Boulevard.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
We absolutely packed that.
Speaker 4 (00:27):
Place last time, and we'll pack it again this Thursday,
won't we.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Oh, it's gonna be so much fun. It's kind of
like our home away from home. They took the mural
off though at this BJS, so you no longer see
the man who's half naked with the scythe in the field.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
So I invite everyone to.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Dress like him. Everyone, take off your shirts, bring your scythes, no,
bring clothes, and come come out to BJ's.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Security won't allow sides.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Oh okay, well maybe you carry the scythe in your heart.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
That's a better idea.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Yeah, Well, hopefully the Dodgers have their sides with them.
It is game one of the NLCS. Tim Kates, the
voice of your Los Angeles Dodgers host of Kate's and
sax Saxon k.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
Oh over changing. I'm changing Kates and Saxon the A. Thanks, Shannon,
You're welcome.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Appreciate that.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Does Steve Sachs know about your batting average and know
about your CIF champion status?
Speaker 5 (01:21):
I mean, how am I supposed to talk about that
when the guy won Rookie of the Year in the
National League and then won two World Series championships, most
notably nineteen eighty eight. I mean, how am I supposed
to say? Oh, yeah, a saxy, I had four fifty two.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
My senior year. Show him your tattoo. That's sex simple.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
He's like, what's that four to fifty two? Part funny?
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Not just that.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Let me tell you about the spring of ninety six.
I don't like talking about it.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
But Kates is like, and here's the kicker. I was
a junior.
Speaker 5 (01:50):
Yeah, I know you spent fourteen years in the vague leagues,
but let me tell you about one spring in nineteen
ninety six where I hit over four fifty.
Speaker 6 (01:59):
I would totally be guy that wantedn't just tell everybody
that would be all the time, all right, Blake Snell
right going for the Dodgers tonight.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Do we know who's pitching for the Brewers yet?
Speaker 7 (02:07):
Now?
Speaker 5 (02:07):
They're playing a little game of cat and mouse. They
are not releasing their roster until the very latest possible moment,
Bill Belichick, Yeah, very much. And they got this manager,
Pat Murphy, who was a college manager, college head coach,
came from Arizona State, Notre Dame before that, and kind
of just like a, I don't know, he's manages differently.
And so they don't have a lot of starting pitching.
They only have two real starters, so they're probably gonna
(02:30):
go opener right into Priester, who's to become their young
right handed guy that they go to here in the postseason.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
So we don't know who they're gonna throw.
Speaker 5 (02:37):
But they're like the Dodgers a year ago, didn't have
a lot of starting pitching, relying a lot on openers
and long guys out of the bullpen and just kind
of piecing it together every single game.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
When you look at the matchup here, what is your
biggest concern and what is your biggest tell?
Speaker 5 (02:52):
Yeah, we got this starting pitching. They've got more starting
pitching than the Milwaukee Brewers. They got an abundance of
course with Blake Snell, and you're saving Otani for a
possible game for him, and that's like an embarrassment of riches.
And you still got Tyler Glass. Now you can throw
in game three. You got an Immett she and you
got a Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
You can go to.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
The abundance of starting and pitching is huge for the Dodgers,
but they need those guys to be good. You can't
have Yama Moto go out there. Last time he was
in Milwaukee in July. Two thirds of an inning, Yeah,
forty on pitches and he was out of the gates.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
That cannot happen.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Did they sweep that series?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
They swept all.
Speaker 5 (03:25):
Six games, three at in Milwaukee and the three AT
Dodgers dited him the first three games after the all time.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Does that play into anything in the head space?
Speaker 5 (03:32):
Can't, because it's a different team. Blake Snell didn't pitch
against them, Yamamoto was terrible, Otani didn't pitch against them.
Max Munty was hurt, Tommy Edmond was hurt. It's a
complete for the five relievers that the Dodgers threw against
them in those games aren't even on the postseason roster,
aren't even around anymore. They're like, you know, selling insurance somewhere.
So it's a different looking Dodger.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
But speaking up that bullpen, is that still you think
the weakest part right now, the weakest link for the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Yeah, it's it's.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
It's still an issue because if they don't get a
strong performance out of Snell or Yamamoto, they're going to
eat into that bullpen. And you're talking about extra innings
for Clayton Kershaw in October. You're talking about image sheen
being used a lot here. I mean, you're.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Gonna get to Bessia Robleski.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
That's the sound of concern that if you're up, is okay,
but it's not somebody I'd want to go to in
a crunch situation. Tried in the same deal, Well that
the Dodgers.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Just released a roster and they're going with an extra
pitcher on this roster just to have that extra arm.
It's Ben Casparius, who wasn't on the wild card roster,
wasn't on the DS roster and quite frankly wasn't even
around in September because they sent it back to Triple
A to kind of give him some rest because they
used him an awful lot during the regular season up
until September first. So Ben Casparius added to the roster
(04:49):
for an extra arm here in this round.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Last night's game Mariners in the Toronto Blue Jays, Mariners
won that game. They talked a lot about Julio Rodriguez
not having shown up much in the previous two series.
Shoey Otani's in that same position where he's the guy
that everybody wants to make headlines, and he's been.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
Quiet, one eight average. He's got two extra base hits.
They were two home runs in Game one against the
Reds in Game one of the wild Card round. He
has done nothing since then, and they still won the
series against the Phillies. Now that series with the Seattle Mariners,
ho about last night, Why are you pitching to Cal
Rawley Euroup won nothing in the sixth Innian and fifth
(05:28):
Innian and you're pitching to cal Ray. How about you
just nibble away on the outside part of the plate.
Don't let him hit the ball, because when he hits it,
he hits it four hundred and fifty feet. It's a
tie game, and then you lose the game.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Miami. Why are you pitching to him? My wife, the
game was on.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
I'm sitting at the dining room table and I'm eating
I'm listening to it. My wife wasn't paying attention to it,
but she was sitting in front of the TV. The
cal Raley hits a home run and the guy calling
the game goes a home run for the Big Dumper,
and she starts cracking up laughing.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
That was Joe David, by the way, on the Call
Dodge broadcast, right.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
It was Joe Davis was It was the funniest anecdote
from that game.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
It's great the Big Dumper, I mean perfect, what a
great story. I just hope that they go all the
way because it's going to be sad watching the Mariners
fans in that game that I stayed up till two
in the morning or whatever watching on was.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
That Friday Friday night.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Oh my gosh, watching those fans in Seattle, it looks
like their whole soul is on the field, and I
love to see that. You know, they hadn't won in
twenty four years, since nineteen ninety nine, and just I
love that and it gives you chills when you get
a drought like that in any major sport. But it's
(06:42):
gonna feel that much better when the Dodgers crush all
of those souls in the World Series, right.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
I don't get it.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (06:51):
I guess I can't relate to people openly crying, grown
men crying. Oh, I keep out their getting to the ALCS.
Follow comedian on Twitter who didn't want anybody to tell
them who won the game and then got emotional afterwards.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Because you're a Dodger fan. Dodgers are perennially in the playoffs. Like,
you don't know what it's like to go on a
nineteen year drought.
Speaker 5 (07:12):
You just don't, okay, So like if the Chargers get
to the Super Bowl, are we gonna see Charger fans
crying everywhere? Because it hasn't happened very often in their
franchise history. You're trying to think of an l A
story that's the equivalent of people getting emotional. They're going
to cry over going to it at ALCS or some
LA fans.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Do not cry over that stuff. But you got to
go to the markets where there's not as much going on.
You know, in Seattle, they've got the Seahawks, they've got
the Marrits. I've seen them cry over both teams. There's
something happens to the Dodgers in the World Series.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Everybody's gonna turn around and become a Lakers fan immediately, right,
or they're going to go to the Kings. There's something
else going on all the time in Seattle.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
What are they going to do?
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Sit there in the rain and jump off bridges.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
Everybody's gonna pleasant buy Sam Donald jersey or.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Something like that.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Hey, that's a good jersey to get. He's worked out.
How about those stories, Sam Donald Baker may Field.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I love it. I actually want to cry so emotional.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
First pitch tonight for Dodgers in Milwaukee. Game one just
after five o'clock, and you'll hear it, Tim and everybody.
Speaker 5 (08:15):
Do you have Morocco Casino Dodgers on deck? Starts at
four o'clock with the cast of care. Did you ever
call him Saxy every time? Okay? All right, so the
point where my wife has told me a little weird,
stop calling him Sax.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
You sound really weird calling.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
To get in there.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
Probably Mariners Blue Jays. Game two starts just after two
o'clock today. Thanks Tim, as always, Thank you guys.
Speaker 8 (08:38):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from kf
I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Oh, that's going to be a fun time out there
on Thursday. When does the rain start? When does the
weather kick in?
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Tomorrow? Tonight? Tonight?
Speaker 3 (08:53):
President Trump was going to answer for me.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Oh, he's he's discussing what's going on in Sharmel Shake, Egypt.
Speaker 7 (08:59):
Right?
Speaker 8 (08:59):
Yes, okay, but are you actually going to do the
news and Bruce, yes? Or are you just going to
tell us on Thursday morning when everybody's there?
Speaker 7 (09:08):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Sorry, guys, we didn't get the permit we needed to
drink beer and.
Speaker 7 (09:12):
Have a radio show.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Say that.

need to drink beer and have a radio show. City
of Huntington Beach is a city of freedom. We do
not need a permit to do a news and Bruce
like join us.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
I'd like to see those two cities get get caught
in a dark alley somewhere.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Oh man, Huntington would cut. I don't know though, West Covina.
I don't play with them either.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
But yes, we will be out there at Huntington Beach
at the BJ's Restaurant in brew House on Beach Boulevard

Speaker 1 (10:22):
We spent about sixteen seconds on this last week at
some point I don't remember.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
It was like a fever dream.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
But there was an emergency World Naked Bike Ride in
Portland that went off this weekend. Usually it's in the summer,
but this was an emergency edition. They had to have
an emergency naked bike ride in Portland due.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
To the ice.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Activity in the city, so they had to get naked
and get on their bikes and ride to the Immigration
and Customs Enforcement building yesterday. So there are people on
their bikes naked. It rained a bit, so they have
their plastic ponchos over their naked bits on their bikes.
There are runners, They're people holding signs that'd say the
(11:04):
only ice, the only ice I.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Need is for these nips. And that's that.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
I just wanted to make sure everyone knew, you, guys.
The pictures are vast, like street.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Like they also need a nude diet. Like how many
people is that?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
I mean, that's a charter of a mile of complete
covering of a street of naked runners and bicyclists.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
Being from Portland, I've seen this before. It's not something
you want to see.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Yeah, I gotta tell you. It's not flattering image of
the super modest.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
No, it is not.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
And I saw I saw this bike ride when I
lived in Seattle through Fremont and but it was sparsely populated.
I mean there was maybe one hundred people bicyclists here
and there. This is like stacked naked Portland people in
mass and it is a lot, guys, And.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
I wonder do they feel like there's a lot of
attention now on what they're what their plight is I
mean you mentioned that they this is an emergency version
of the naked.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
I don't understand why they feel the need to make
it naked, because that takes away It looks like an
unseerious to use the word, it looks like an unserious
protest when you take off all your clothes because you
know what, You're no longer making it about the issue,
You're making it about your dangly bits. How am I
to focus on what Ice is doing, sir? When I
can see your breasts and the dangly bits between your
(12:39):
legs on that banana seat, Like, what am I supposed
to think about? You need to make the main thing
the main thing. Keep the main thing the main thing.
When you're naked and your genitals are exposed, that's not it.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Would be my message.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
It was aggressive.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
I'm not the one who took my clothes off and
donned a bicycle for protest.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
And we're all thankful for that, I know, But my
point is that was hurtful.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Well you on a Wednesday that.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
It's not even ten am, we're not even done with
the first half hour, and you're already being hurtful.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
I thank you.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
I saw I heard I should say what you did
this weekend?
Speaker 2 (13:17):
You said it was for me, and it was nice.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
Yesterday happened to be the tenth anniversary of this show. Yes,
this show, well, okay, twelfth, so twenty fifteen was the
first day of this show.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
We'll bring it up and then we're going to leave
it alone for peace and respect. But when I got
the news that Diane Keaton had passed, oh there's that too,
I mistakenly thought that that was our ten year birthday,
and I text Gary, is today the day of our
tenth birthday? And then this happened question mark and he said, no,
(13:53):
the birthday is tomorrow, and I thought, we do not
have that on our conscience because it was weighing heavy
for a moment. That's all we're going to say about
that for respect. Now, Yesterday was the actual birthday. Yesterday
was the actual birthday.
Speaker 6 (14:08):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
To the game, Yes, And you made a reference to
a player whose hand has been broken and is wrapped
up like a big club on.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
It left hand.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
I think it is, yeah, And you said Elijah Molden safety.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
You said he is going out there.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Like Sano's with a big glove on his hand.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Basically and you said you just did a Thanos reference,
and I said that was for you.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
It was a gift for our birthday.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
I also realized yesterday when I downloaded the John Candy
documentary on Amazon Prime.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Have you seen it?
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Haven't yet?
Speaker 1 (14:40):
You're gonna cry. It's really good. But can you learn
things about John Candy that you didn't learn? It's called
I like me anyway. I learned from watching that, and
they do a little bit about space Balls that maybe
Do you think I got my inspiration for mister bumber
Puss from John Candy's character of Barf and Spaceballs? Do
(15:03):
you think it was somewhere in the recesses of my mind? No,
I think it was very at the forefront of your mind.
I feel like we've already had this discussion because when
you said half man, half cat, and I remember saying
something along the lines of you mean like Barf from
Spaceballs and just got a blanket.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
I did not connect it. I did not care.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Okay, well, then maybe it is in the back of
your mind somewhere. Maybe it was maybe not for.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
From but like watching some of those scenes, just so
you know, mister bumber Puss would be completely different, like
he's a different cat. Wouldn't honestly comic relief the way
it would not be. No, no, mister bumber Puss is
actually something where you'd feel weird feelings for having, you know,
kind of like the sexualized version of cats.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Okay, uh.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
When we come back met from that to world peace,
President Trump is signing the twenty point Plan in Charmel Shake,
Egypt to bring peace to the Middle East hostages. At
least the live hostages were returned hours ago. He's taking
credit for three thousand years worth of wartime having come
(16:13):
to an end. Of course he is, he said it.
Maybe it was three thousand, maybe it was two hundred,
maybe it was fifty.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
But it's over. Yeah. Anyway, we'll talk about that.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
And here some of the comments that he made to
the Israeli Kanesse a little bit earlier today as well.
Speaker 8 (16:27):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
We are actually, like you said, going to get some
weather a little bit later next hour. We'll give you
an idea of what it is that we can expect. Also,
that crash, very dramatic crash at the helicopter in Huntington
Beach amazed that it was not deadly. People were injured,
but it was not a deadly crash. It was slow,
weirdly slow, and compared to the helicopter crash that we
(16:57):
saw just last week in Sacramento, it seemed it seems slow.
Speaker 7 (17:01):
The two of you are always not getting the point
of what's going on. It's not the point of the
organ by a ride just to be naked. It's to
mock Ice.
Speaker 4 (17:12):
No, No, we get it, and we get it's to
mock Ice. They want to mock President Trump. They want
to mock what's going on. It's just an unseerious way
to do so.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
And I'm quite.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
Sure how getting naked mock's Ice. Well, it's that they want,
I don't. They want to bring attention to what ice,
they say ICE is doing in Portland and Greater Oregon
all over the country.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
And have that large of a protest in front of
ICE headquarters totally clothed and get our attention.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Yeah, that that's what. Yeah, and keep it on.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
What the what the thing is which is Ice, because
if you take off your clothes, you're a distraction.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Period.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Yeah, I agree. I she was just very quiet about
the whole thing, and I didn't know she was trying
to be quiet.
Speaker 7 (17:57):
It's not the point of the organ by pride.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
I think it too long.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
I maybe her partner is still sleeping and she's under
the covers and she's like this, I'm going to call them.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
You guys, it's not the naked bike ride. You don't
get it. It's because she doesn't want to wake them up.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
But she's listening to the show.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Yeah in err headphones.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
Oh okay, that's actually not it. It's not an awful take.
Speaker 9 (18:22):
Congratulations now, at lasts, not only for Israelis, but also
for Palestidians and for many others. The long and painful
nightmare is finally over, and as the dust settles, the
smoke phades, the debris is removed, and the ashes cleaned
(18:43):
from the air, the day that breaks on a region transformed,
and a beautiful and much brighter future appears suddenly within
your reach. This is now a very exciting time for
Israel and for the entire Middle East, because all across
the Middle East, the forces of chaos, terra and ruin
(19:06):
that have plagued the region for decades now stand weakened, isolated,
and totally defeated.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
That was President Trump in front of the Israeli Kanesset,
they're basically their parliamentary body, with a big speech today.
This signifies what we believe is the latest ceasefire to
be agreed to between Amas and Israel. All twenty of
the remaining living hostages held in Gaza were turned over.
(19:34):
I think only four bodies were turned over, but the
others are expected to be handed over as part of
this deal. While buses carrying dozens of freed Palestinian prisoners
arrived in the West Bank and Gaza. Israel is eventually
going to release nineteen hundred prisoners and detainees as part
(19:56):
of this ceasefire deal. The President made that speech earlier
today in Israel, but then flew to Charmel Shake, Egypt,
where he just in the last several minutes or so
officially signed the peace deal with representatives there in Egypt.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
The government shutdown is going to be felt finally this week.
The shutdown has closed some Smithsonian museums and it is going.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
To result in miss paychecks. This week.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
We mentioned with all of the disruptions caused by air
traffic controllers not going to work, calling and sick what
have you.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
They were still getting paid.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Now we're seeing people missing paychecks for the first time.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Have you also seen what's going on in Yosemite?
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yes, illegal base jumpers, squatters are all taken over. We'll
get into all of the latest who will miss a
paycheck and where you'll be able to see the government
shut down hit your life this week.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
Hey, Gary and Shannon will continue in just a moment.
Speaker 8 (21:01):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
I let it get to me. That's the thing. Dianne
Katon died over the weekend.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
Yeah, what did you get to you?
Speaker 2 (21:17):
I let that get to me.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
Oh okay.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
It was sad.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
It was sad and shocking. I mean, she's seventy nine.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Was seventy nine, But still you didn't hear any reports
of her demise.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
And that was that was more the headline last night
and this morning than any other, which was the speed
of the decline in health that some people saw her
they said a few months ago, and it wasn't awful.
I believe that she lost a house, or at least
her house was damaged in the fires back in January,
and then that caused a certain amount of stress. On
(21:51):
her and she already wasn't doing very well apparently, but
again she was very very quiet about her health.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
But I mean, just seventy nine doesn't kill people anymore.
Seventy nine is not a time when a lot of
people in reasonable health will die of old age.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
It doesn't happen. So what do we know what the
deal was?
Speaker 1 (22:11):
I know she had talked publicly about some struggles, but
you know, we didn't hear cancer or anything like.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
That, at least not yet. I mean, I don't know
if her family will come out and say something. But locally,
former LA Unified Superintendent Austin Buttner is going to run
for mayor against Karen Bass as of right now, the
most high profile candidate to officially enter the race. He
said that LA is a drift and that the city
government is failing to meet the basic needs of residents.
(22:41):
He knows a lot about politics in La specific Austin
Butner was once deputy mayor under Via Ragosa. He was
the public suerre oft the La Times at one point,
and then spent time as the superintendent of Schools for
LA from twenty eighteen to twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Well, the government shutdown can use, and now we're learning
more about the effects. Tens of thousands of federal employees
have taken retirement or they're voluntary departures on top of
the latest layoffs that are happening because of this, which
is putting a huge strain on agencies. It's being called
(23:20):
a max mass exodus, unprecedented in its scale. One hundred
and fifty four thousand federal employees who accepted buyout offers
and we're removed from the payroll as of the end
of last month.
Speaker 4 (23:35):
This specifically is going to hit this week because of payday,
for example, for military men and women, hundreds of thousands
of members of the military Reserves, National Guard October fifteenth,
and it is it's that kind of very specific date
when the paycheck does not come in that a lot
(23:56):
of people start to feel that pinch. And it's not
just those people who are not getting paid, it's those
people who work in places where that money would have gone,
businesses that they would go to, restaurants, et cetera.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Yosemite has reportedly descended into chaos since the shutdown. There
have been increasing reports of illegal base jumping from El Capitan.
You've got squatters filling up campgrounds, climbers using half done
cables without permits. It sounds like for the most part,
(24:28):
except for the squatters and the campgrounds. Although how you
would tell a squatter at a campground from a normal
person in a campground I don't know.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Other than that, it.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Seems like Darwinism is having its day at Yosemite, well.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
Other than those people who are there by definition or squatters,
because the park is supposed to be closed and they're
not supposed to be there.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
I guess I.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
Thought they were keeping the National parks open.
Speaker 7 (24:50):
The parks are open, they just have furloughed a lot
of the pop right r.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
They're open that There's just they're not as well policed,
maybe enough I've ever seen them be policed, but.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Not police is the wrong word.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
I guess.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Supervised is a better word. But yeah, no, the parks
are open. It's just that people are taking advantage.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
I guess.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
One park employee spoke to sf Gate on condition of anonymity,
so they were only aware of a single volunteer patrolling
the entire park. To my point, you hear them before
you see them. According to a guy who works in
the park, the base jumpers that there are at least
(25:37):
a dozen illegal base jumps in the park. Last week
he said, do you hear them before you see them?
In the parachute pops and there's no more noise.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
The climbers.
Speaker 4 (25:46):
Also, social media posts show a bunch of climbers backed
up on the half domeed cables that used to be
the norm until about fifteen years ago they operated or
opened up a permit system. The problem that, according to
some of the people who know what they're doing, is
that people will break the rules. That poses a danger
because others are then either forced to rescue them or
(26:08):
even recover their bodies in the event of an accident.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
It's kind of weird that they I don't know.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
I don't know this community, but you'd think that people
who delight in places like national parks understand the beauty
and the importance of them and wouldn't want to ruin
that for other people and.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Would police it themselves.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
Yeah, I'll bet you there is some of that going on.
But then you're going to get some yahoos out of
Clovis or something like that.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
There the Clovis Yahoo's.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
It's the gateway to the Sierra.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
There are a lot of gateways to the Sierra. As
it turns out, there's a lot of something I've learned.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
We do have some weather coming in on the way.
We'll talk about that as we get into the top.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Of the out tail.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Rain, oh, tornadoes, that's a lot. That's a lot for us.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
When I was picking up coffee in Fort Ladale, yes.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Oh, I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
I was in Fort Lauderdale just yesterday, just Yester Morn.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
The woman behind the counter making the coffee, was talking
to her friend or her coworker, and said, what is
it with people around here? They don't know how to
drive in the rain. So it's so there's some rain, Okay,
people don't know how to drive. And I'm like, does
everybody have the same conversation in every city, Like in
San Francisco, in La and Seattle, all the places I've lived,
everyone has the same conversation. People don't know how to
(27:29):
drive here when it rains, it happens everywhere. No one
thinks anyone knows how to drive when it rains anywhere.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
Yeah, and the percentages are like ninety percent of people
believe that ninety percent of the people don't know how
to drive in the rain.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Yeah, there's some Prosser.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
There's so much it's comic. Call gotta mean Uh. Thursday, Thursday, Thursday.
We are out and about once again. All the permits
have been pulled. We can guarantee we're gonna be live
at Bjay's Restaurant and Ruehause in Hauntington Beach, the One
on Beach.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
We packed it in August. We'll pack it again.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Last time I was there, I hit someone with my car.
Speaker 4 (28:05):
Oh, you never know what's gonna happen. This time, you're
gonna be armed.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
I'm always armed.
Speaker 4 (28:11):
Good answer. Gary and Shannon will continue right after this.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
