Take the show to go. You want to go, you're
in New Braunfels, than Elmer, Let's go. Let's see how
long the drive is.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Discussion has been happening behind the scenes Elmer about having
you lead us in some meditations as we get deeper
into the holidays, that's going to be hysterical. Well, so
I do think it's important. Next Our next show is tomorrow,
and that is one week from Christmas and tensions are
(02:39):
starting to ramp up.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
You know what I'm saying, Elmer, do you think you
could put a meditation together, like a six minute meditation
for tomorrow?
Speaker 4 (02:47):
I can do that for listeners.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
All right, so tomorrow's Thursday. You want to do it
around in the twelve o'clock hour. It's twelve twenty okay.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
If you've never heard Elmer's meditation, it's a new thing
he is putting out there. I heard his first meditation
and it is so good. It is so good because
there's a little bit of humor, there's some some good
parallels that he makes to calm you down.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Thank you, shan no, thank you.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Takes the scary out of the way that you're you're
feeling your anxiety. It's it's really good and his voice
is very soothing. You just feel like you're with a friend.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
Appreciate you.
Speaker 7 (03:25):
Oh yeah, so I just dropped the drop my first
video yesterday actually on YouTube. You just Google meditate with
Elmer and there's a little funny picture of me being annoyed,
you know. So, yeah, I guess follow follow the channel
if you want to hear me help you meditate on stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
There you go subscribing, like subscribing, like smash that, like
one when you get that tattooed on Richie?
Speaker 5 (03:49):
Subscribing like what else.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Is going on?
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Time for what's happening?
Speaker 1 (03:56):
What he told you about this is it was happening?
Rob Ryan Son Nick appearing in La court. Nick Reiner
charged yesterday afternoon with two counts of murder special circumstances
murder for allegedly killing his parents. He made his first
appearance is about three days after butchering his parents, stabbing
them to death multiple times inside their home in Brentwood.
(04:18):
He has the most high profile defense attorney in Alan
Jackson and Alan Jackson's team.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
He and his appearance.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Wore a blue suicide prevention smock, frequently worn by defendants
who pose a risk of self harm. We don't know
if there's any evidence to believe he could self harm
himself or statements he has made at this point, but
they are going to have this arraignment where he will
enter his plea guilty, not guilty, maybe not guilty by
reason of insanity, something of that nature. It's going to
(04:47):
be January seventh, which I believe you said was a Wednesday. Yep, Wednesday,
January seventh, Jake.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
And Romy Reiner, two of the kids, the other brother,
the other sister, release their statement, obviously their first statements
since the loss of their parents, apparently at the hands
of their brother. They said, words cannot even begin to
describe the unimaginable pain we are experiencing every moment of
the day. The horrific and devastating loss of our parents,
(05:14):
Rob and Michelle Reiner is something that no one should
ever experience. They weren't just our parents, they were our
best friends.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
I think that you are going to have outcry about this,
maybe more so than you saw during the football season.
With all the streamers taking the rights to games. The
Oscars are leaving ABC and going to YouTube. That's going
to confuse a lot of the older people who still
consider are the Oscars appointment television.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
But it's not yet. It's a couple of years away.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
You're given people time to die.
Speaker 8 (05:46):
Well.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
I can say that I was going to say it
gives people the opportunity.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
To, I mean to figure out what so much is
so much more.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Of our content today is streaming than it was five
years ago. Yeah, and maybe five years from now this
will be a pretty common thing. The CEO of the
parent company of so Cal Edison is admitting that his
company's equipment is likely the culprit of the Eaten fire.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Now this is obvious.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
We've seen this for months now that it appeared that
so Cal Edison equipment was responsible for the Eton fire
that started late on January seventh. What is new is
they are being very legally careful about how they are
saying things. Pedro Pizzaro is the CEO of Edison International,
(06:40):
also the president of the company, and he said, quote,
as we investigate further, as we absorb the circumstantial evidence,
as we see the absence of another probable cause, and frankly,
as time moves on, that has led us to adjust
the statements that we are making. Now that is a
(07:02):
very carefully legally crafted semi admission or acknowledgment at least
of what it is that they think started that eating fire.
Because they are going to be on the hook for
billions of dollars potentially.
Speaker 5 (07:17):
There is a new buzzword.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
It's called orthorexia, a new eating disorder they're calling it.
This is people that only consume healthy foods. Orthorexia the
branding brought to you by processed foods probably come on
to make it a bad thing, Yeah, says Orthorexia is
when healthy eating goes from a goal to an obsession.
(07:39):
When a person becomes so focused on avoiding foods they
think are harmful that they end up depriving their body
of the nutrition it needs. Well, then they're not eating healthy,
They're just not eating.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
This is clearly a pr piece put together by Nebrisco,
Nabisco brands or something. The signs of orthorexy. It can
be difficult to identify since eating healthy is generally perceived
as a good thing. People with orthorexia might be praised
for their disorder, not know they have a problem, and
not end up getting the help they need.
Speaker 5 (08:10):
Yeah, that's a funny thing. What, Well, they've had those
influencers who have died from only eating plants, Like that's extreme.
They wanted anything else.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Well, that's the crazy part of it, yes, because then
you've gone beyond healthy eating into crazy eating. The time
I mean this doesn't I think this orthorexia is specifically
about you know, maybe that is they get into that
realm of it where they completely deteriorate what should be
(08:42):
a representative diet, you know, representative of different food groups
in different places that you get each one of the
nutrients that you need. Also, Six Flags they are going
to debut a new, first of its kind roller coaster.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
They said it was back in last year.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
As a matter of fact, they said that they were
going to add a new roller coaster, the six Flags
Vicoma Coaster or the six Flags Thrill Glider roller coaster.
Not quite sure exactly which one they're gonna go with.
There are similar rides to this in places like the Netherlands,
the UK, and China, but this would be the first
(09:22):
kind of coaster like this in the Orange County Register.
The last time they introduced a new coaster was three
years ago. They did a Wonder Woman ride.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
It was out there.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
You ever pulled cheese.
Speaker 5 (09:35):
Like a cheese pole?
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Like a cheese pole, pull cheese? You ever done that?
Speaker 5 (09:41):
I don't play with my cheese, Gary, I eat it.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Good answer, But some people playing with their cheese actually
might help save some restaurants.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Speaking of while you were talking about orthorexia, I did
a little research about the new bron Fells Worst Fest.
It's going to be November sixth to the fifteenth and
twenty twenty six, so it will take us about nineteen
hours to drive there, apparently. Okay, it's pretty far away
in Texas, or or or just throwing this out there,
(10:10):
we could go to Huntington Beach where Old World's Worst
Fest is held every year. Real cool spot. They've got
a beer garden. It's you know, thirty miles away. Just
options if you want. If Sausage Fest was what you
were thinking, we could take the show on the road,
drive nineteen hours. Well, or we could drive you know,
an hour minutes and go to Old World, which is
(10:33):
a great time. They've got so many sausages there, you know,
so many dipping dipping mustard. It's like a festival. Oh,
it's it's amazing there. They've got pretzels. It's if you've
never been afternoon.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
We should take the tarp off the Old Show RV
and do a show.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
The tarp off of it.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
Huh yeah is the uh did you empty the yes?
Speaker 3 (10:55):
Or no?
Speaker 5 (10:55):

time we used it, viral cheese pulls. When we come
back to Gary and Shannon. Also, let us know where

delighted in. They need to see somebody, They need No,

Speaker 2 (13:02):
I know that, Alamo. Yeah, we're also doing what you're
watching Wednesday. Coming up at the bottom of the hour,
we'll talk about shows and stuff. But viral cheese pulling,
maybe saving chain restaurants because you know it's killing chain restaurants.
The food slop that they try to feed you.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
It's just.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
Sorry, I need you to elaborate foods.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Everybody's getting the same food from the same suppliers. And
the food is just not interesting anymore. Yeah, everybody's got
the insert name of pasta dish with a with a
baked chicken or something on it, and it all tastes
exactly the same.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
From where you talking about, like restaurants.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Yeah, yeah, all of it, it's all the same. It's
just there's very little creativity. It seems like some of
these bigger chain restaurants.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
That being said, do you say, yeah, just bring me
a plate of your food slop.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Bring me a plate of slop with a white sauce
on it, please, and that chicken like material on top
of it.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
Like I hop in Wendy's. I feel like it's the same.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Phohoa, you watch your freaking mouth. What you just named pancakes?
Speaker 2 (14:09):
No, okay, yeah yeah, First of all, I hop pancakes
are pretty hard to do.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Not mess with Ie hop. They make a delicious pancake
and they could be slammed the people waiting out the door.
And those pancakes are freaking delightful. I love the eye
hop that hasn't changed in seventy five years. And Lamada
still sticky. You can tell it's it hasn't been changed
because the tables are so small you barely fit in them.
Speaker 5 (14:40):
It's like a restaurant made for elves, made for skinny people.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
It's pot Yes, back when we were all thin people,
that's when this restaurant was built. I mean, it is
a hard place to eat a meal if you're normal sized. Nevertheless,
this is a place that gets slammed and they crank
out the finest, the fluffy, fluffiest, the hastiest pancakes and yes,
the syrup. But let's not sleep on that beautiful mount
(15:06):
of butter. And if you ask nicely, oh, I'm sorry,
were I got sidetracked?
Speaker 3 (15:12):
Go ahead, you're I don't know if you know this.
You're salivating like you have split.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
I haven't had pancakes in a long time, because what
am I going to do make a pancake at home?
Speaker 9 (15:24):
You know?
Speaker 5 (15:25):
Gets it?
Speaker 9 (15:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Yeah, but we're talking about they're never easy. What are
you what?
Speaker 1 (15:30):
They're pretty easy? I think you said, yeah, yeah, okay, good.
I'm just saying I'm the only one eating the pancake.
Why nobody else is in my house eating pancakes. My
husband's even eat pancakes.
Speaker 5 (15:43):
Person, And this is the beginning of the end for
you guys.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
You think so, but then it's like, you don't make
one pancake or two pancakes. You've got the whole batter thing.
You're making like fifty pancakes, And who's gonna eat all that?
Speaker 4 (15:56):
Right?
Speaker 5 (15:57):
You can cut the in half if you want to.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Yeah, but then you still got thirty Okay, you know,
and you can't save them thirty What do you mean
you can't save them?
Speaker 5 (16:08):
Reheated pancake?
Speaker 2 (16:10):
The only thing worse, never mind, the only thing worse
than well, I was gonna say, it's not that big
of a drop off a reheated pancake.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
After Oh no, I can't have a reheated pancake. I
gotta have it fresh off.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Oh sorry, Princess, I didn't realize that your pancake freshness
was as important as it is.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
He's not wrong.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
You people need to get trash guts like me so
that you can eat all kinds of food. Get your cheese. No,
it's too late now, I'm lactose intolerant.
Speaker 7 (16:44):
The cheese is great, Guary, Like, I know where you're
going with this, and I think people got to hear
about the cheese.
Speaker 5 (16:49):
Yeah, they do need to hear about the cheese. You
guys are just trying to make me feel better.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
No, people on TikTok are pulling their cheeses and that
makes people go to restaurants.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I love it.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
See she does not even pay attention the tiktalk trend.
I just saw that it.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Was the second anniversary of Brandon Staley getting fired.
Speaker 5 (17:13):
Chears to all you celebrate. I get sidetracked, easy.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
No you what?
Speaker 5 (17:21):
Okay? I have a show for what you watch on Wednesday?
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Okay that I have been watching and I felt guilty
about it. But then I was like, why are you
feeling guilty about it? It's a heartwarming show of kids
just trying to make it. It's the Simon cow Like
making the band reality show on Netflix.
Speaker 5 (17:39):
We'll talk about it when we come back.
Speaker 6 (17:41):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt says that tonight's address
from President Trump Primetime six pm you'll hear it live
here on KFI, will address the focus on the president's
historic accomplishments border inflation. She also said what's to come. Obviously,
approval ratings have been in the tank lately. There's some
(18:09):
jitters among his own party that he really hasn't spent
enough time concentrating on key home domestic issues. It's one
of the reasons that we saw Susie Wiles, the chief
of staff, suggest that he get out there and do
campaign style events because those seem to be what he's
really good at. So she wanted him to get out
there and talk more about the economy. So this may
be at least part of that. It's where you at Wednesday.
(18:33):
By tomorrow we hope to have a whole map so
you can check out and see where other people are
listening to the show from.
Speaker 3 (18:37):

Speaker 3 (19:10):
It's nice.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
I feel peaceful just thinking about Moro be leave a
leave a talkback.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
Tell us where you are while you're listening to the show.
Speaker 5 (19:18):
It is what you watch on Wednesday as well.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
The following program is brought to you in living.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
Color, but you're watching in the Americans love television. They
win their kids USA television.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Watching too many of those live television shows.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Well, I did mention that I am watching the Simon
Cowell new project that Netflix is giving the documentary treatment.
Speaker 5 (19:44):
He's trying to develop a boy band.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Simon cow as you know, numerous boy band affiliations, one
direction probably being the most popular.
Speaker 5 (19:54):
He had his boy band.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
I believe they were called five pass On Bye Bye
Bye that went to in Sync.
Speaker 5 (20:00):
The Lost is History. Really I didn't know that.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, And this is about small town boys fifteen to
eighteen years old who are from just middle class neighborhoods
who want to be in a boy band. And he
kind of gives it the American idol treatment in terms of,
you know, you start with sixteen of them. I think
he does, and he kind of you know, whittles it
(20:22):
down the list and it's just kind of nice to
see kids from Ireland and from Portugal and from England
and they come to America for the first time, they say,
in Miami, and they go through all the vocal training
and all the things that go into it, and they're
sweet kids. And Sea hold up, he's had some work done.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
Oh, I know that. But I mean just his personality.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
He comes across in the show more likable than he
ever has in my opinion. But I apparently I stopped
paying attention to Simon Cowell. I don't know when I
stopped watching American Idol circa two thousand and six.
Speaker 5 (20:58):
I haven't watched that show for a very long time.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
I mean I was super into it when it first
came out, and he was just kind of the d
you know, and then I didn't really pay attention to him.
So this is kind of my first immersion into his
persona since then.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
And he's very likable.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
And he's been around.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
I mean, like you said, it's been twenty years that
he's been a fixture on American television, and before that
obviously was British television.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
But that original.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Personality that we saw from him on American Idol as
the kind of just nose in the air, you know,
stick in the mud kind of guy and arms cross,
arms cross the whole time, and.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Needless to say, I am looking for a new show
to watch. I'm you know, I'm watching Simon call Reality
TV so twenty twenty.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
Five, so I watch I love LA.
Speaker 8 (21:49):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
I eat those up every Sunday night. It is good.
I like that one. You wouldn't like it?
Speaker 4 (21:55):
I think.
Speaker 5 (21:57):
You think Gary would like that. No, but he needs
to get on the trend.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
I like it.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
What is it?
Speaker 5 (22:02):
It's good.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
It's about well Elmer watches too, elm are you describe it.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
It's about influencers making it an.
Speaker 5 (22:11):
It's not your thing. I love it.
Speaker 10 (22:13):
It's a group of friends living in LA navigating their careers,
love life struggles.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
You guys just so fun. How come we didn't have
any fallout from that guy dying?
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Like I thought that that was going to be a
major like plot arc and it was just like we're
done with that, Like we all fell in love with
that guy and then they killed him and.
Speaker 5 (22:30):
Then it's like what, we're just moving on.
Speaker 10 (22:32):
Do you think it was just like the comp like
I don't know, like HBO, Like maybe he did something
bad and they just needed to kill his character.
Speaker 5 (22:37):
Maybe something was going to come out and affect the show.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Maybe, but like, what could it be that wouldn't just
give it more publicity and more eyes on it. It
was just so odd how he was such a he
was like a bit character. Yeah, but everyone loved him immediately,
and all the characters on the show loved him immediately,
and then they kill him off and then and then nobody's.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Make some of him again this reality show, right, No,
it's not really descripted.
Speaker 10 (23:05):
Yeah, Oh, what do you think about that girl Tallula,
like the wild child friend of Maya?
Speaker 5 (23:11):
Do you like her? Or does she annoy it? Maya's
bothering me? Like I did like that whole thing she pulled.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
With his work party, and that was too much pocket,
so out of pocket, and the fact that she just
acted like what, it's nothing. I thought you were having fun.
I thought it was like, no, not cool anyway, I'm
obsessed and you're not.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Hot enough to pull that off? Obsessed with who Rachel
sent it?
Speaker 9 (23:35):
Maya?
Speaker 5 (23:36):
She plays a character how one how one. She's funny,
She's like so quirky and like.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
I love her. Wait, you're talking about the ritz Cracker
girl or her friend?
Speaker 10 (23:44):
The one that works in media, not the crazy influencer
with the wild heir.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
So you like the girl who did that whole like
work party, kitchen debacle.
Speaker 10 (23:53):
No, that's I like Rachel, the girl that's dating that
guy hutcher Sin guy in real in the show.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
Lost and Lost and Confused.
Speaker 7 (24:04):
Yeah, with the French guy's assistant at.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
You like he likes someone who's dating Josh Hutcherson in
the show. You like the crazy the influencers agent. That's
like the baby agent, the one that made the mess
of her husband's work party or her boyfriend's work party.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
I like her.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
That's who Shannon hates.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
I don't like her. I don't hate her, but I
don't like what you're doing. Te Lula's the influencer girl
with the wavy I love Telula. She's beautiful and magical.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
Gary lost right.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
I think that Maya is just deliberately trying to blow
up her relationship with that guy because she wants to
get back to the guy that Yes.
Speaker 7 (24:46):
I just say one thing real quick, you know, at
the ending one she oh, it's spoiler, but I'm not
going to say. But when her boss is basically like
you can you take a chopo and appreciate what you have.
I feel like a lot of people in our generation
do need to like listen to that one speech because
it's like, yeah, you're not going to get everything you
want immediately. You have to work for it. You have to,
like you know what, to me be a disciple for
(25:06):
a second. And like, I think a lot of people
in our generation now are kind of like fast track trying.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
To be like the CEO when it's like, now, I
got to learn.
Speaker 5 (25:14):
Yes, Elmer before you were here.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Gary did this rant all the time and he said
there was a dues gap going on. You don't pay
your dues and you've got to pay your dues to
get to where.
Speaker 5 (25:23):
You want to be. But you can't. You can't have
that gap, you know. I agree, you can use that
term if you like. Quote dude. But Leeton Measter is
like the older cracks me up. Yeah, Like, are still
just a gossip girl me too.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
I can't not picture her and gossip girl.
Speaker 5 (25:44):
And I love that show.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Continue with what we have some new Diddy documentary news
by the way, Yes, Gary and Shannon will continue.
Speaker 6 (25:55):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from kf
I am six forty.
Speaker 5 (26:01):
I'm calling from Tacna, Arizona, thirty miles east of Yuma.
You guys have kept me sane for years. Love your show.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Oh well, we hope that can.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
I had never heard of Tacna, Arizona. We're getting a
lot of fun places and Arizona to that.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
Yeah, we're Haret Heley, Idaho, just south of some Belly.
Listen to you guys every day.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
Bolt up, Helium, Yeah, bolt up, say Gary.
Speaker 9 (26:29):
And this is Sean. My wife and I are sitting
on a balcony looking over the ocean having breakfast in
Portoby Art Docs.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Oh.
Speaker 9 (26:37):
He came down for a couple of days just to
get some rest and uh, some piece and quiet from
the kids from the show every Day.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
Love you guys, Love you too, But turn this crap off.
He's in quiet.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
That a bad word. All her fault on Peacock. We
finished up that show. It's a kidnapping show. That's all
I'm going to say about that. The Beast in Me
is when we just started. That's on Netflix. That is
this story of a writer played by Claire Danes and
her new neighbor played by Matthew Reese, who's accused of
(27:13):
he's got a shady past, may murdered as his wife,
and she's an author and she's looking for a new subject,
so she's gonna write about him.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
I am almost done with the diplomat, the entire thing.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
I don't like the turn season three took. I don't
like what they did to them.
Speaker 5 (27:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
I did not like that at all. And I don't
know how it ends. But you're not done, not done.
But I don't like that. They could have they should
have kept it with just like a flirtation that didn't
get and then that with that got what eh. I
was not happy with that. Yeah, did you feel the
same way?
Speaker 3 (27:49):
Yeah, very much.
Speaker 5 (27:50):
So okay, because I really liked them. Well, there's no
reason you don't have to hate them, you know.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
I don't want to go through somebody's like marital strife.
Speaker 5 (27:59):
On a show. Watch it for entertainment. How much you're
crap together?
Speaker 3 (28:02):
How many episodes you have left?
Speaker 5 (28:03):
One?
Speaker 4 (28:04):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (28:04):
Okay, okay, so then it'll wrap up for you.
Speaker 5 (28:07):
Yeah. Pluribus on Apple TV.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
That's another one that's I'm I'm really liking it because
it is not just a weird show.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
I mean, it is a weird show.
Speaker 5 (28:17):
How many episodes into it, are you.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Six or seven?
Speaker 2 (28:20):
Whatever? I mean, We're caught up. It comes out every Friday.
It is a Vince Gilligan is brilliant. I mean, did
a lot of the Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul,
so a lot of his kind of tricks in terms
of placement of characters, use of color, different kinds of shots,
like he's all of that stuff is very Vince Gilligan.
(28:43):
But there's messages in this that it seems like every
time we finish an episode, my wife and I have
to download for like ten minutes. Okay, what do you think?
What is this supposed to be an allegory for what
are we? I mean, listen, that's kind of hot talk
we have in my house. What do you think he's
trying to say with these you know, these people who
(29:04):
survived what becomes this mind meld virus.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
I saw an article this morning.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
I don't I've only watched one episode of it, and
I didn't know enough to click, but it was something
to the effect of Pluribus is not a show about
aliens or so fi sci fi.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
It's about something else, very much so, and that's what
that I like that kind. I like that kind of
a show every once in a while. I don't like
them all like that. I mean, I like everyone, so
I like my Landman for example. There's none of us,
no brain activity needed. But but Purvis is written on
such a different level. I mean, are they talking about
(29:41):
like how we all felt during COVID or are they
talking about the influx of artificial intelligence and our everyday
lives that social media makes us feel. If you're not
on social media, you feel a part but also more
human than other people.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Like there's there's a lot of.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
That's a lot of levels. I don't like to work
that hard.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
When I watched TV, but I saw a friend of
mine said that the first half of that first episode
is not fun.
Speaker 5 (30:09):
I mean it is.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
It is creepy, it's disturbing.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
What happens in that first thirty minutes of that first
episode is uncomfortable to watch. Yeah, And I remember thinking
to myself, I don't I don't know if I want
to watch it.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
I don't want to do multiple episodes.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
I know where I'm at because the whole episode for
me was I get okay, cool, and it's well done
and it's well acted, but I'm like, eh, am I
really in the mood for this.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Second episode has laughlines in it. Third episode gets into
more the esoteric levels of kind of what's going on,
what's really going on?
Speaker 1 (30:43):
To stick with the Simon col reality fodder, I guess over.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Here in Dumb dumb Land, you also saw Sean Comb's
The Reckoning.
Speaker 3 (30:51):
This is the This is the documentary on.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Diddy put together man By among others, put together by
Fitty Scent.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
He did an interview on Sherry. We watched Sherry in
here because it's on the.
Speaker 5 (31:06):
Actually we saw him on Sherry.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
He said he has about one hundred and fifty hours
of footage that did not make it into the documentary.
He said, I don't understand why he filmed himself, but
I'm glad he filmed himself. The people supporting him will
be very quiet when more comes out.
Speaker 5 (31:24):
He may have just put it on YouTube.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
But it's a four part dark documentary and it's if
you kind of it's kind of a fun, you know,
it's it's kind of the way I felt about all
these documentaries of these stars like Eddie Murphy. You know,
you go back and it's kind of like walking you
through history. In terms of music, it's not all about Diddy.
(31:48):
It's about the evolution of East Coast, West Coast and
all of that and early nineties stuff. So it's I
just liked the nostalgia part of it, you know, And
it doesn't get into you're not gonna feel gross out.
It's maybe a couple moments in like the last episode,
where they kind of get into it a little bit
what was going on, but it's more of a sociology sociology,
(32:10):
sociological thank you look at what made him be the
way he was and when the switch was flipped and
was he just ruthless and driven or was he a
ruthless murderer. There are bodies that have turned up around
Diddy throughout the years, and clearly they interviewed people with
(32:31):
an axe to grind, people who maybe did not get
the level of success that some of the people who
worked in his circle did, like Mary j Blige, Joe
to see things like that, these are people who kind
of it didn't pan out for them, So you know,
you take it with a grain of salt. But also
it's really well done in that documentary form, and it's
(32:51):
only four episodes about it.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
I think we said forty five minutes fifty minutes a
piece something like that. All right, you missed any part
of our show? We had a bangeram.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
I liked that.
Speaker 5 (33:02):

Yes, I don't even know how to sit right.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
It's famous for its unique blend of German heritage and
Texas hill country charm.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
It's not just Old bron FLEs, it's New Bronfis spell bron.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Fus b r a u n f e ls. I
mean obviously German heritage with Braunfels. You know they've got
a worst fest, a sausage festival.
Speaker 5 (02:05):
We should go. Do you want to go?
Speaker 4 (02:08):
That'd be fun.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Take the show to go. You want to go, you're
in New Braunfels, than Elmer, Let's go. Let's see how
long the drive is.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Discussion has been happening behind the scenes Elmer about having
you lead us in some meditations as we get deeper
into the holidays, that's going to be hysterical. Well, so
I do think it's important. Next Our next show is tomorrow,
and that is one week from Christmas and tensions are
(02:39):
starting to ramp up.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
You know what I'm saying, Elmer, do you think you
could put a meditation together, like a six minute meditation
for tomorrow?
Speaker 4 (02:47):
I can do that for listeners.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
All right, so tomorrow's Thursday. You want to do it
around in the twelve o'clock hour. It's twelve twenty okay.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
If you've never heard Elmer's meditation, it's a new thing
he is putting out there. I heard his first meditation
and it is so good. It is so good because
there's a little bit of humor, there's some some good
parallels that he makes to calm you down.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Thank you, shan no, thank you.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Takes the scary out of the way that you're you're
feeling your anxiety. It's it's really good and his voice
is very soothing. You just feel like you're with a friend.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
Appreciate you.
Speaker 7 (03:25):
Oh yeah, so I just dropped the drop my first
video yesterday actually on YouTube. You just Google meditate with
Elmer and there's a little funny picture of me being annoyed,
you know. So, yeah, I guess follow follow the channel
if you want to hear me help you meditate on stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
There you go subscribing, like subscribing, like smash that, like
one when you get that tattooed on Richie?
Speaker 5 (03:49):
Subscribing like what else.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Is going on?
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Time for what's happening?
Speaker 1 (03:56):
What he told you about this is it was happening?
Rob Ryan Son Nick appearing in La court. Nick Reiner
charged yesterday afternoon with two counts of murder special circumstances
murder for allegedly killing his parents. He made his first
appearance is about three days after butchering his parents, stabbing
them to death multiple times inside their home in Brentwood.
(04:18):
He has the most high profile defense attorney in Alan
Jackson and Alan Jackson's team.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
He and his appearance.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Wore a blue suicide prevention smock, frequently worn by defendants
who pose a risk of self harm. We don't know
if there's any evidence to believe he could self harm
himself or statements he has made at this point, but
they are going to have this arraignment where he will
enter his plea guilty, not guilty, maybe not guilty by
reason of insanity, something of that nature. It's going to
(04:47):
be January seventh, which I believe you said was a Wednesday. Yep, Wednesday,
January seventh, Jake.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
And Romy Reiner, two of the kids, the other brother,
the other sister, release their statement, obviously their first statements
since the loss of their parents, apparently at the hands
of their brother. They said, words cannot even begin to
describe the unimaginable pain we are experiencing every moment of
the day. The horrific and devastating loss of our parents,
(05:14):
Rob and Michelle Reiner is something that no one should
ever experience. They weren't just our parents, they were our
best friends.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
I think that you are going to have outcry about this,
maybe more so than you saw during the football season.
With all the streamers taking the rights to games. The
Oscars are leaving ABC and going to YouTube. That's going
to confuse a lot of the older people who still
consider are the Oscars appointment television.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
But it's not yet. It's a couple of years away.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
You're given people time to die.
Speaker 8 (05:46):
Well.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
I can say that I was going to say it
gives people the opportunity.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
To, I mean to figure out what so much is
so much more.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Of our content today is streaming than it was five
years ago. Yeah, and maybe five years from now this
will be a pretty common thing. The CEO of the
parent company of so Cal Edison is admitting that his
company's equipment is likely the culprit of the Eaten fire.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Now this is obvious.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
We've seen this for months now that it appeared that
so Cal Edison equipment was responsible for the Eton fire
that started late on January seventh. What is new is
they are being very legally careful about how they are
saying things. Pedro Pizzaro is the CEO of Edison International,
(06:40):
also the president of the company, and he said, quote,
as we investigate further, as we absorb the circumstantial evidence,
as we see the absence of another probable cause, and frankly,
as time moves on, that has led us to adjust
the statements that we are making. Now that is a
(07:02):
very carefully legally crafted semi admission or acknowledgment at least
of what it is that they think started that eating fire.
Because they are going to be on the hook for
billions of dollars potentially.
Speaker 5 (07:17):
There is a new buzzword.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
It's called orthorexia, a new eating disorder they're calling it.
This is people that only consume healthy foods. Orthorexia the
branding brought to you by processed foods probably come on
to make it a bad thing, Yeah, says Orthorexia is
when healthy eating goes from a goal to an obsession.
(07:39):
When a person becomes so focused on avoiding foods they
think are harmful that they end up depriving their body
of the nutrition it needs. Well, then they're not eating healthy,
They're just not eating.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
This is clearly a pr piece put together by Nebrisco,
Nabisco brands or something. The signs of orthorexy. It can
be difficult to identify since eating healthy is generally perceived
as a good thing. People with orthorexia might be praised
for their disorder, not know they have a problem, and
not end up getting the help they need.
Speaker 5 (08:10):
Yeah, that's a funny thing. What, Well, they've had those
influencers who have died from only eating plants, Like that's extreme.
They wanted anything else.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Well, that's the crazy part of it, yes, because then
you've gone beyond healthy eating into crazy eating. The time
I mean this doesn't I think this orthorexia is specifically
about you know, maybe that is they get into that
realm of it where they completely deteriorate what should be
(08:42):
a representative diet, you know, representative of different food groups
in different places that you get each one of the
nutrients that you need. Also, Six Flags they are going
to debut a new, first of its kind roller coaster.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
They said it was back in last year.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
As a matter of fact, they said that they were
going to add a new roller coaster, the six Flags
Vicoma Coaster or the six Flags Thrill Glider roller coaster.
Not quite sure exactly which one they're gonna go with.
There are similar rides to this in places like the Netherlands,
the UK, and China, but this would be the first
(09:22):
kind of coaster like this in the Orange County Register.
The last time they introduced a new coaster was three
years ago. They did a Wonder Woman ride.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
It was out there.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
You ever pulled cheese.
Speaker 5 (09:35):
Like a cheese pole?
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Like a cheese pole, pull cheese? You ever done that?
Speaker 5 (09:41):
I don't play with my cheese, Gary, I eat it.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Good answer, But some people playing with their cheese actually
might help save some restaurants.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Speaking of while you were talking about orthorexia, I did
a little research about the new bron Fells Worst Fest.
It's going to be November sixth to the fifteenth and
twenty twenty six, so it will take us about nineteen
hours to drive there, apparently. Okay, it's pretty far away
in Texas, or or or just throwing this out there,
(10:10):
we could go to Huntington Beach where Old World's Worst
Fest is held every year. Real cool spot. They've got
a beer garden. It's you know, thirty miles away. Just
options if you want. If Sausage Fest was what you
were thinking, we could take the show on the road,
drive nineteen hours. Well, or we could drive you know,
an hour minutes and go to Old World, which is
(10:33):
a great time. They've got so many sausages there, you know,
so many dipping dipping mustard. It's like a festival. Oh,
it's it's amazing there. They've got pretzels. It's if you've
never been afternoon.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
We should take the tarp off the Old Show RV
and do a show.

Speaker 2 (13:02):
I know that, Alamo. Yeah, we're also doing what you're
watching Wednesday. Coming up at the bottom of the hour,
we'll talk about shows and stuff. But viral cheese pulling,
maybe saving chain restaurants because you know it's killing chain restaurants.
The food slop that they try to feed you.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
It's just.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
Sorry, I need you to elaborate foods.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Everybody's getting the same food from the same suppliers. And
the food is just not interesting anymore. Yeah, everybody's got
the insert name of pasta dish with a with a
baked chicken or something on it, and it all tastes
exactly the same.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
From where you talking about, like restaurants.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Yeah, yeah, all of it, it's all the same. It's
just there's very little creativity. It seems like some of
these bigger chain restaurants.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
That being said, do you say, yeah, just bring me
a plate of your food slop.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Bring me a plate of slop with a white sauce
on it, please, and that chicken like material on top
of it.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
Like I hop in Wendy's. I feel like it's the same.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Phohoa, you watch your freaking mouth. What you just named pancakes?
Speaker 2 (14:09):
No, okay, yeah yeah, First of all, I hop pancakes
are pretty hard to do.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Not mess with Ie hop. They make a delicious pancake
and they could be slammed the people waiting out the door.
And those pancakes are freaking delightful. I love the eye
hop that hasn't changed in seventy five years. And Lamada
still sticky. You can tell it's it hasn't been changed
because the tables are so small you barely fit in them.
Speaker 5 (14:40):
It's like a restaurant made for elves, made for skinny people.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
It's pot Yes, back when we were all thin people,
that's when this restaurant was built. I mean, it is
a hard place to eat a meal if you're normal sized. Nevertheless,
this is a place that gets slammed and they crank
out the finest, the fluffy, fluffiest, the hastiest pancakes and yes,
the syrup. But let's not sleep on that beautiful mount
(15:06):
of butter. And if you ask nicely, oh, I'm sorry,
were I got sidetracked?
Speaker 3 (15:12):
Go ahead, you're I don't know if you know this.
You're salivating like you have split.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
I haven't had pancakes in a long time, because what
am I going to do make a pancake at home?
Speaker 9 (15:24):
You know?
Speaker 5 (15:25):
Gets it?
Speaker 9 (15:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Yeah, but we're talking about they're never easy. What are
you what?
Speaker 1 (15:30):
They're pretty easy? I think you said, yeah, yeah, okay, good.
I'm just saying I'm the only one eating the pancake.
Why nobody else is in my house eating pancakes. My
husband's even eat pancakes.
Speaker 5 (15:43):
Person, And this is the beginning of the end for
you guys.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
You think so, but then it's like, you don't make
one pancake or two pancakes. You've got the whole batter thing.
You're making like fifty pancakes, And who's gonna eat all that?
Speaker 4 (15:56):
Right?
Speaker 5 (15:57):
You can cut the in half if you want to.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Yeah, but then you still got thirty Okay, you know,
and you can't save them thirty What do you mean
you can't save them?
Speaker 5 (16:08):
Reheated pancake?
Speaker 2 (16:10):
The only thing worse, never mind, the only thing worse
than well, I was gonna say, it's not that big
of a drop off a reheated pancake.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
After Oh no, I can't have a reheated pancake. I
gotta have it fresh off.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Oh sorry, Princess, I didn't realize that your pancake freshness
was as important as it is.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
He's not wrong.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
You people need to get trash guts like me so
that you can eat all kinds of food. Get your cheese. No,
it's too late now, I'm lactose intolerant.
Speaker 7 (16:44):
The cheese is great, Guary, Like, I know where you're
going with this, and I think people got to hear
about the cheese.
Speaker 5 (16:49):
Yeah, they do need to hear about the cheese. You
guys are just trying to make me feel better.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
No, people on TikTok are pulling their cheeses and that
makes people go to restaurants.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I love it.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
See she does not even pay attention the tiktalk trend.
I just saw that it.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Was the second anniversary of Brandon Staley getting fired.
Speaker 5 (17:13):
Chears to all you celebrate. I get sidetracked, easy.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
No you what?
Speaker 5 (17:21):
Okay? I have a show for what you watch on Wednesday?
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Okay that I have been watching and I felt guilty
about it. But then I was like, why are you
feeling guilty about it? It's a heartwarming show of kids
just trying to make it. It's the Simon cow Like
making the band reality show on Netflix.
Speaker 5 (17:39):
We'll talk about it when we come back.
Speaker 6 (17:41):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt says that tonight's address
from President Trump Primetime six pm you'll hear it live
here on KFI, will address the focus on the president's
historic accomplishments border inflation. She also said what's to come. Obviously,
approval ratings have been in the tank lately. There's some
(18:09):
jitters among his own party that he really hasn't spent
enough time concentrating on key home domestic issues. It's one
of the reasons that we saw Susie Wiles, the chief
of staff, suggest that he get out there and do
campaign style events because those seem to be what he's
really good at. So she wanted him to get out
there and talk more about the economy. So this may
be at least part of that. It's where you at Wednesday.
(18:33):
By tomorrow we hope to have a whole map so
you can check out and see where other people are
listening to the show from.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Hey, Gary and Shannon.
Speaker 9 (18:38):
It's Jen calling from Brentwood, Tennessee.

Speaker 3 (18:54):

Speaker 8 (18:59):
Hi you guys.
Speaker 7 (18:59):
This is from Morol Bay one balcony looking out at
the big beautiful Moral Rock.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
Gorgeous day to day that your show.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
Bye bye from Bay.
Speaker 5 (19:09):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
It's nice.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
I feel peaceful just thinking about Moro be leave a
leave a talkback.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
Tell us where you are while you're listening to the show.
Speaker 5 (19:18):
It is what you watch on Wednesday as well.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
The following program is brought to you in living.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
Color, but you're watching in the Americans love television. They
win their kids USA television.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Watching too many of those live television shows.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Well, I did mention that I am watching the Simon
Cowell new project that Netflix is giving the documentary treatment.
Speaker 5 (19:44):
He's trying to develop a boy band.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
Simon cow as you know, numerous boy band affiliations, one
direction probably being the most popular.
Speaker 5 (19:54):
He had his boy band.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
I believe they were called five pass On Bye Bye
Bye that went to in Sync.
Speaker 5 (20:00):
The Lost is History. Really I didn't know that.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, And this is about small town boys fifteen to
eighteen years old who are from just middle class neighborhoods
who want to be in a boy band. And he
kind of gives it the American idol treatment in terms of,
you know, you start with sixteen of them. I think
he does, and he kind of you know, whittles it
(20:22):
down the list and it's just kind of nice to
see kids from Ireland and from Portugal and from England
and they come to America for the first time, they say,
in Miami, and they go through all the vocal training
and all the things that go into it, and they're
sweet kids. And Sea hold up, he's had some work done.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
Oh, I know that. But I mean just his personality.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
He comes across in the show more likable than he
ever has in my opinion. But I apparently I stopped
paying attention to Simon Cowell. I don't know when I
stopped watching American Idol circa two thousand and six.
Speaker 5 (20:58):
I haven't watched that show for a very long time.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
I mean I was super into it when it first
came out, and he was just kind of the d
you know, and then I didn't really pay attention to him.
So this is kind of my first immersion into his
persona since then.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
And he's very likable.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
And he's been around.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
I mean, like you said, it's been twenty years that
he's been a fixture on American television, and before that
obviously was British television.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
But that original.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Personality that we saw from him on American Idol as
the kind of just nose in the air, you know,
stick in the mud kind of guy and arms cross,
arms cross the whole time, and.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Needless to say, I am looking for a new show
to watch. I'm you know, I'm watching Simon call Reality
TV so twenty twenty.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
Five, so I watch I love LA.
Speaker 8 (21:49):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
I eat those up every Sunday night. It is good.
I like that one. You wouldn't like it?
Speaker 4 (21:55):
I think.
Speaker 5 (21:57):
You think Gary would like that. No, but he needs
to get on the trend.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
I like it.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
What is it?
Speaker 5 (22:02):
It's good.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
It's about well Elmer watches too, elm are you describe it.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
It's about influencers making it an.
Speaker 5 (22:11):
It's not your thing. I love it.
Speaker 10 (22:13):
It's a group of friends living in LA navigating their careers,
love life struggles.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
You guys just so fun. How come we didn't have
any fallout from that guy dying?
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Like I thought that that was going to be a
major like plot arc and it was just like we're
done with that, Like we all fell in love with
that guy and then they killed him and.
Speaker 5 (22:30):
Then it's like what, we're just moving on.
Speaker 10 (22:32):
Do you think it was just like the comp like
I don't know, like HBO, Like maybe he did something
bad and they just needed to kill his character.
Speaker 5 (22:37):
Maybe something was going to come out and affect the show.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Maybe, but like, what could it be that wouldn't just
give it more publicity and more eyes on it. It
was just so odd how he was such a he
was like a bit character. Yeah, but everyone loved him immediately,
and all the characters on the show loved him immediately,
and then they kill him off and then and then nobody's.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Make some of him again this reality show, right, No,
it's not really descripted.
Speaker 10 (23:05):
Yeah, Oh, what do you think about that girl Tallula,
like the wild child friend of Maya?
Speaker 5 (23:11):
Do you like her? Or does she annoy it? Maya's
bothering me? Like I did like that whole thing she pulled.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
With his work party, and that was too much pocket,
so out of pocket, and the fact that she just
acted like what, it's nothing. I thought you were having fun.
I thought it was like, no, not cool anyway, I'm
obsessed and you're not.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Hot enough to pull that off? Obsessed with who Rachel
sent it?
Speaker 9 (23:35):
Maya?
Speaker 5 (23:36):
She plays a character how one how one. She's funny,
She's like so quirky and like.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
I love her. Wait, you're talking about the ritz Cracker
girl or her friend?
Speaker 10 (23:44):
The one that works in media, not the crazy influencer
with the wild heir.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
So you like the girl who did that whole like
work party, kitchen debacle.
Speaker 10 (23:53):
No, that's I like Rachel, the girl that's dating that
guy hutcher Sin guy in real in the show.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
Lost and Lost and Confused.
Speaker 7 (24:04):
Yeah, with the French guy's assistant at.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
You like he likes someone who's dating Josh Hutcherson in
the show. You like the crazy the influencers agent. That's
like the baby agent, the one that made the mess
of her husband's work party or her boyfriend's work party.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
I like her.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
That's who Shannon hates.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
I don't like her. I don't hate her, but I
don't like what you're doing. Te Lula's the influencer girl
with the wavy I love Telula. She's beautiful and magical.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
Gary lost right.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
I think that Maya is just deliberately trying to blow
up her relationship with that guy because she wants to
get back to the guy that Yes.
Speaker 7 (24:46):
I just say one thing real quick, you know, at
the ending one she oh, it's spoiler, but I'm not
going to say. But when her boss is basically like
you can you take a chopo and appreciate what you have.
I feel like a lot of people in our generation
do need to like listen to that one speech because
it's like, yeah, you're not going to get everything you
want immediately. You have to work for it. You have to,
like you know what, to me be a disciple for
(25:06):
a second. And like, I think a lot of people
in our generation now are kind of like fast track trying.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
To be like the CEO when it's like, now, I
got to learn.
Speaker 5 (25:14):
Yes, Elmer before you were here.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Gary did this rant all the time and he said
there was a dues gap going on. You don't pay
your dues and you've got to pay your dues to
get to where.
Speaker 5 (25:23):
You want to be. But you can't. You can't have
that gap, you know. I agree, you can use that
term if you like. Quote dude. But Leeton Measter is
like the older cracks me up. Yeah, Like, are still
just a gossip girl me too.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
I can't not picture her and gossip girl.
Speaker 5 (25:44):
And I love that show.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Continue with what we have some new Diddy documentary news
by the way, Yes, Gary and Shannon will continue.
Speaker 6 (25:55):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from kf
I am six forty.
Speaker 5 (26:01):
I'm calling from Tacna, Arizona, thirty miles east of Yuma.
You guys have kept me sane for years. Love your show.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Oh well, we hope that can.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
I had never heard of Tacna, Arizona. We're getting a
lot of fun places and Arizona to that.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
Yeah, we're Haret Heley, Idaho, just south of some Belly.
Listen to you guys every day.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
Bolt up, Helium, Yeah, bolt up, say Gary.
Speaker 9 (26:29):
And this is Sean. My wife and I are sitting
on a balcony looking over the ocean having breakfast in
Portoby Art Docs.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Oh.
Speaker 9 (26:37):
He came down for a couple of days just to
get some rest and uh, some piece and quiet from
the kids from the show every Day.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
Love you guys, Love you too, But turn this crap off.
He's in quiet.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
That a bad word. All her fault on Peacock. We
finished up that show. It's a kidnapping show. That's all
I'm going to say about that. The Beast in Me
is when we just started. That's on Netflix. That is
this story of a writer played by Claire Danes and
her new neighbor played by Matthew Reese, who's accused of
(27:13):
he's got a shady past, may murdered as his wife,
and she's an author and she's looking for a new subject,
so she's gonna write about him.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
I am almost done with the diplomat, the entire thing.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
I don't like the turn season three took. I don't
like what they did to them.
Speaker 5 (27:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
I did not like that at all. And I don't
know how it ends. But you're not done, not done.
But I don't like that. They could have they should
have kept it with just like a flirtation that didn't
get and then that with that got what eh. I
was not happy with that. Yeah, did you feel the
same way?
Speaker 3 (27:49):
Yeah, very much.
Speaker 5 (27:50):
So okay, because I really liked them. Well, there's no
reason you don't have to hate them, you know.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
I don't want to go through somebody's like marital strife.
Speaker 5 (27:59):
On a show. Watch it for entertainment. How much you're
crap together?
Speaker 3 (28:02):
How many episodes you have left?
Speaker 5 (28:03):
One?
Speaker 4 (28:04):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (28:04):
Okay, okay, so then it'll wrap up for you.
Speaker 5 (28:07):
Yeah. Pluribus on Apple TV.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
That's another one that's I'm I'm really liking it because
it is not just a weird show.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
I mean, it is a weird show.
Speaker 5 (28:17):
How many episodes into it, are you.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Six or seven?
Speaker 2 (28:20):
Whatever? I mean, We're caught up. It comes out every Friday.
It is a Vince Gilligan is brilliant. I mean, did
a lot of the Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul,
so a lot of his kind of tricks in terms
of placement of characters, use of color, different kinds of shots,
like he's all of that stuff is very Vince Gilligan.
(28:43):
But there's messages in this that it seems like every
time we finish an episode, my wife and I have
to download for like ten minutes. Okay, what do you think?
What is this supposed to be an allegory for what
are we? I mean, listen, that's kind of hot talk
we have in my house. What do you think he's
trying to say with these you know, these people who
(29:04):
survived what becomes this mind meld virus.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
I saw an article this morning.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
I don't I've only watched one episode of it, and
I didn't know enough to click, but it was something
to the effect of Pluribus is not a show about
aliens or so fi sci fi.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
It's about something else, very much so, and that's what
that I like that kind. I like that kind of
a show every once in a while. I don't like
them all like that. I mean, I like everyone, so
I like my Landman for example. There's none of us,
no brain activity needed. But but Purvis is written on
such a different level. I mean, are they talking about
(29:41):
like how we all felt during COVID or are they
talking about the influx of artificial intelligence and our everyday
lives that social media makes us feel. If you're not
on social media, you feel a part but also more
human than other people.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Like there's there's a lot of.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
That's a lot of levels. I don't like to work
that hard.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
When I watched TV, but I saw a friend of
mine said that the first half of that first episode
is not fun.
Speaker 5 (30:09):
I mean it is.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
It is creepy, it's disturbing.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
What happens in that first thirty minutes of that first
episode is uncomfortable to watch. Yeah, And I remember thinking
to myself, I don't I don't know if I want
to watch it.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
I don't want to do multiple episodes.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
I know where I'm at because the whole episode for
me was I get okay, cool, and it's well done
and it's well acted, but I'm like, eh, am I
really in the mood for this.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Second episode has laughlines in it. Third episode gets into
more the esoteric levels of kind of what's going on,
what's really going on?
Speaker 1 (30:43):
To stick with the Simon col reality fodder, I guess over.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Here in Dumb dumb Land, you also saw Sean Comb's
The Reckoning.
Speaker 3 (30:51):
This is the This is the documentary on.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Diddy put together man By among others, put together by
Fitty Scent.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
He did an interview on Sherry. We watched Sherry in
here because it's on the.
Speaker 5 (31:06):
Actually we saw him on Sherry.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
He said he has about one hundred and fifty hours
of footage that did not make it into the documentary.
He said, I don't understand why he filmed himself, but
I'm glad he filmed himself. The people supporting him will
be very quiet when more comes out.
Speaker 5 (31:24):
He may have just put it on YouTube.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
But it's a four part dark documentary and it's if
you kind of it's kind of a fun, you know,
it's it's kind of the way I felt about all
these documentaries of these stars like Eddie Murphy. You know,
you go back and it's kind of like walking you
through history. In terms of music, it's not all about Diddy.
(31:48):
It's about the evolution of East Coast, West Coast and
all of that and early nineties stuff. So it's I
just liked the nostalgia part of it, you know, And
it doesn't get into you're not gonna feel gross out.
It's maybe a couple moments in like the last episode,
where they kind of get into it a little bit
what was going on, but it's more of a sociology sociology,
(32:10):
sociological thank you look at what made him be the
way he was and when the switch was flipped and
was he just ruthless and driven or was he a
ruthless murderer. There are bodies that have turned up around
Diddy throughout the years, and clearly they interviewed people with
(32:31):
an axe to grind, people who maybe did not get
the level of success that some of the people who
worked in his circle did, like Mary j Blige, Joe
to see things like that, these are people who kind
of it didn't pan out for them, So you know,
you take it with a grain of salt. But also
it's really well done in that documentary form, and it's
(32:51):
only four episodes about it.
