Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon, and you're listening to KFI
AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Somebody liked your Chiefs rand in Orange County.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
I just have to say to Shannon, after your rant
about the Chiefs jaded party of one your tables.
Speaker 4 (00:19):
Ready, I'm not jaded. It's obvious.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Just anybody who's watched the Chiefs this season knows that
they are the worst undefeated team to watch.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
It's awful.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
I mean, here's the thing. I don't hate Patrick Mahomes.
I don't hate Tom Brady. By the way, Tom Brady
did a really great job. It's the first time I
really listened to an entire game that he called Niners Chiefs.
Speaker 4 (00:43):
He was really good.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
He was entertaining, he was informative, he wasn't too egotistical.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
I loved it.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Well, I hate Tom Brady, don't hate Patrick Mahomes. I
think they're great at what they do. Patrick Mahomes turning
that no play into a thirty three yard run incredible.
I mean, we're watching history or watching magic, and I'm
not gonna put that down. I'm just saying, from top
to bottom, they are not a very well put together
(01:10):
team to show that six.
Speaker 5 (01:11):
And zero record, which is ironic because it was last
year where they got off to such an awful start
but were better than their record was exactly Yeah, a
couple of stories that were following people with private health
insurance would be able to pick up over the counter
methods of birth control like condoms and morning after pills, etc.
For under a new rule the White House proposed today
(01:32):
that without a doctor's prescription, women may pay as much
as fifty bucks for morning after pills, and women who
delay buying the pill in order to get to a
doctor's prescription could jeopardize the purpose of it in the
first place. So this new rule from the White House
would also require insurers to bear the cost of an
O pill, the only FDA approved over the counter birth
(01:54):
control pill.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
It's time for swamp watch.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Swamp is horrible.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Government doesn't work. Man, make this like a reality TV show.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Wasn't bad news?
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Always a pleasure to be anywhere from Washington, d C.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Hey Joe, a town all.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Too clearly built on a swamp and in so many
ways still a swamp.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
I have a bunch of malarkey.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Nobody said drained the swamp.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
I said, Oh, that's so gosh.
Speaker 5 (02:22):
You know the thing, I think the image from the
weekend has got to be Donald Trump in a McDonald's apron,
are you. I mean, I can see they shut down
that that McDonald's franchise until four o'clock in the afternoon
(02:44):
yesterday so that he could he could man the friar
and work the drive through.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
He has a little bit of an obsession when it
comes to McDonald's. I mean it's been reported before, we
talked about it earlier. He likes his McDonald's. He had
McDonald's delivered to the White House. Jared crish I wrote
in his memoir that he knew Trump was better from
COVID when he had his big mac and fish filet
and fries and shake delivered, that he knew he was
on the mend.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
This is all because Kamala Harris I guess purported to.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Work at a McDonald's in nineteen eighty three. She's very
big with advertising that she grew up in the middle
class and that she worked at McDonald's during a summer
in college, that she manned the friar and other stations
there at the McDonald's.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
Well, apparently there's no record of it.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
There's no pay stubs, there's no record of for I
don't know how I would prove that I worked at
a deli for four years, five years through high school
and college. It doesn't exist anymore. I certainly don't have
a pay stub from nineteen ninety seven. You know, how
do you prove that kind of work record. I don't know,
(03:54):
save for maybe like a picture of you behind the counter,
But I don't know if.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
You'd ever take that picture. It's hard to prove.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
But anyway, because there's no proof, this is one of
the hills that the campaign, the Trump campaign, is dying on,
and so they and it was a fun stunt having
somebody who loves McDonald's, loves business, American business, go and
work the drive through for fifteen minutes. He seemed likable
in that video with the French fries and the more
likable moments he can have and not the name calling,
(04:23):
if he just stuck to being the way he was
with John Cobalt in that interview, of just being a
nice guy, human like two dudes, just talking the way
he's talking to the normal everyday people in the drive
through line. That's the foot he should lead with. In
my opinion, you know, you put that next to JD.
Vance's colossal failure of a trip to the donut shop
(04:44):
where he didn't seem like he could talk to real people.
And maybe that's because he's an academic and an elite.
Maybe he's just not good with talking to strangers. But
Trump is Why wouldn't you lead.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
With that talking to strangers?
Speaker 5 (04:55):
Well, the Harris campaign came out and said that this
is exactly what next another Trump presidency would be, which
is him exploiting working people for his own gain. Now
the what's his name Joseph Costello, spokesman for the Harris campaign,
Trump doesn't understand what it's like to work for a living,
(05:16):
no matter how many staged photo ops he does, and
his entire second term plan is to give himself, his
wealthy buddies and giant corporations another massive tax cut.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
It's it's true, but then you sound like you're pooh
poohing what was a nice little moment of somebody out
in the community.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
They're not gonna he's They would never give him credit
for making a good political choice.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
But that way to say there's a way to say,
like something clever about him serving fries or something. I
don't know, there's a way to not sound like you're
just crapping on everything.
Speaker 5 (05:49):
Just but look at the imagery that they've been trying
to get Trump to use. Him sticking his head out
of a drive through window, waring a McDonald's apron is
very America.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
It just is.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
That's I mean, that's it is him at a Pittsburgh
Steelers game last night. It's a very and that kind
of imagery I think goes pretty far when you're trying
if you are one of the two percent or whatever
who's undecided.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
It does.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Like we've talked about people want humans in twenty twenty four,
you want your politicians to speak plainly to you. You
want them to be relatable, You want them to not
talk down to you. Well, what says I'm just like you,
even though we know he's not just like us? But
what says that? And it's the Steelers game and it's
(06:38):
the McDonald's.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
And you want him to talk plainly but not too plain.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
Kamala Harris that you've had enough that you just can't
take it anymore. We can't stand you, your ash vice president.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
That is awful, Like again, why would you Why would
you let that side of you have a microphone?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
That's he's such an indidate.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Like when they let Antonio Brown have an open mic
over the weekend. Who've signed off on that? That could
have gone sideways real quick. So I told you they
had like a bunch of high school students here and
they did some sort of assembly, national anthem, the whole bit.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
Now they haven't broken up into four groups.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
And the group that is in the section right below
the radio booth. It's like a motivational talk and I'm
getting some free therapy right now. They're going over this book.
It's called the Energy Bus. Ten Rules to fuel your life,
work and team with positive energy. And it's like all
this Tony Robbins stuff. Oh wow, it's like you're the
(07:45):
driver of your own bus.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
They're doing this on game day.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah, I think it's it's just kind of I guess
it would be really cool if you're a high school
student and you have some sort of a workshop or
assembly at the at the stadium. It'd be pretty cool.
But yeah, I mean, free therapy. Be man, positive energy.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
Gary.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
It's very important if you if you come across the
challenges and the adversity in your life that you're certain
to come across as you're driving your bus, whether it's
somebody who doesn't like you, bad weather, what have you.
If you approach that with positive energy, it makes those
challenges a lot easier. Well, like like in the triathlon,
(08:25):
you know, you got to look at it positively, like, yeah,
you swim the miles and then you realize it's a
lot going to be a lot easier to get on
that bike, and as soon as you get off that bike,
you note it's going to be your favorite part of
the run.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
You're going to put in your air posit.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
So no, no, I just did a one hundred miles
on my bike, and now I got to run a marathon.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
Your positive energy is not happening with your energy.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
Best room out positive the chafing, I listen, you got
to put gold bond on those babies. Couple things. People
have been calling and suggesting that this the Social Security
Administration would know if Kamala Harris worked at McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Okay, nobody's going to take that call, I know.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Going back to nineteen eighty three.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
But yeah, I'm sure those records are I'm sure Social
Security has everything filed away perfectly.
Speaker 5 (09:15):
Well, I mean they I'm assuming they've kept my employment records.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
No, since I turned eighteen.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
They don't know about you with the stint at the
Chinese delivery restaurant.
Speaker 5 (09:26):
Before before I was eighteen, or the movie theater and
the movie theater, or the kennels also under eighteen, and
all that was under the table. Of course, it was
well that McDonald's isn't going to be under the table.
My job was under the table, but again not McDonald's.
You worked at a sketchy deli.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
It was not sketchy, wonderful place.
Speaker 5 (09:51):
One of the things that has come up today is
that Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are focusing on battleground states.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
That's all we're going to see them do for the
next t two weeks.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
It looks like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan have dates with
Vice President Harris. She's been traveling around with former Congresswoman
Liz Cheney. Trump is spending his day in North Carolina.
He's got events, he's got a rally, he's got faith
leader meeting. Scheduled to be back in North Carolina again
on Tuesday. And one of the things he did this
(10:22):
morning was he was talking with first responders and people
still recovering from Hurricane Helene. The critical portion of who's
going to choose the next president, will you know, is
still that sort of gray area of those people who
claim that they are still undecided. Because this new Washington
Post poll that came out five thousand registered voters, well
(10:44):
it's a pretty large sample size. Forty seven percent say
they will either definitely or probably support Kamala Harris. Forty
seven percent say they will either definitely or probably support
Donald Trump. So whatever you know, questions you think are
going to be answered November fifth, might not be, might
take several days.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Tim Walls went on the View to talk about Elon
Musk's recent pledge to give away millions of dollars to
registered voters in battleground states.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
That's what you do when you have no plan for
the public, when you have no economic plan that's going
to benefit the middle class, when you have no plan
to protect reproductive rights, when you have no plan to
address climate change and produce American energy, you go to
these type of tactics.
Speaker 5 (11:27):
So the plan, the plan from Elon Musk is he
wanted people to sign a petition that supported express support
for the First Amendment and the Second Amendment. You could
only sign that petition if you were in one of
these battleground states, and you could only sign the petition
if you were a registered voter. So there are questions
(11:49):
about whether or not this is actually legal.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Tim Walls was also asked if his thoughts on Arnold
Palmer Oh no, and Trump's recent offscript comments about Arnold
Palmer's genitalia.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Oh, I didn't pull that.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
He said, Well, I'll tell you what he said. You
just said I'm passing on that one.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Well, that's smart.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Yeah, you shouldn't.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Touch anybody else's genitals, certainly.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Not especially are no longer with us.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Yeah, Arnold have been gone for nearly a decade.
Speaker 5 (12:22):
Only a big honker, and I refused to say it,
but when he took showers with the other pros, they
came out of there.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
They said, Oh my god, that's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I don't think I've ever heard a man talk about
another man's penis.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Not in such glowing terms, maybe.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
In any term, but I guess I wouldn't be in
those circles who would tell me.
Speaker 5 (12:54):
Right again, I'll only point out that if it was
if it was an exceptional thing. That's that might rise
to the level. But I'm not going to get out
of a shower and in a gym and go, hey,
look at those average guys.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Right, look at your average.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
You could pick a lock with that one.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
I believe you said if it makes an impact.
Speaker 5 (13:17):
Well, listen, you walk down the street every day, right,
and you run into hundreds, maybe a couple thousand people,
depending on where you work and what you see. It's
only the ones that are standouts that are going to
catch your attention, right, That's what I.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Just didn't know that men looked at other men's genitalia.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
It's not like it's not like you're looking around to repair.
But again, if it's if to look at it, if
you're Arnold Palmer, and it's just unavoidable.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
Right right, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (13:54):
Hey, we have some wellness suggestions for you, some some
things that are going on. We are absolutely ruining our
children and no one is doing anything about it.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
Oh that sounds uplifting.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Yeah, I've got a story about a cat.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Is it uplifting?
Speaker 3 (14:11):
No?
Speaker 4 (14:11):
That was a joke.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
That was because remember the last cat story. Yes, And
you were like, why are you talking right now? Why
is this being brought up?
Speaker 5 (14:19):
Why are you just telling me what the comic strip says?
Why are you just explaining the YouTube.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Video to me?
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Gary and Channa?
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Waita, Now you sound angry?
Speaker 4 (14:29):
Oh I do? I don't. I'm not. I'm not angry.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Are you sure?
Speaker 4 (14:32):
No? This is my happy face?
Speaker 1 (14:35):
That's not It is.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Rule number seven? What's rule number seven?
Speaker 4 (14:44):
Rule number seven is surround yourself with people who are enthusiastic.
Yay uh. He loves women's volleyball. And here's why. Oh boy,
a five game notch.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
They can lose the first two games, they're down in
the third deciding game, another point gets scored on them,
and what do they do? They get up off the court,
they come together.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Not the greatest sports analogy. This is awful.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
This is awful.
Speaker 6 (15:15):
I'm a delivery driver and when Gary said look at
that when it can pick a luck, I.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
Almost dropped everything that was hilarious. Good word, guys, keep
it up. Stolen valor, stolen valor. It's not my joke.
It was from Saturday Night Live.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
It was the delivery though. For me, I've been hearing
from people that this is a thing that guys do
talk about this that it's like a dude thing, because
dudes are, you know, kind of focused on their their penis.
I hear from people on the text that Petros does
this a lot.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
He talks about he doesn't talk about his own.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
I don't know. I haven't heard that show in a while,
but he did.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
Petros doesn't talk about average. He's not talking about average.
You're talking about guys that would you know you could
put them.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
I didn't know that he was.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Yeah, I guess guys are kind of it's kind of
like their way of measuring how they measure up in
this department. So apparently it is something dudes talk about.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
I didn't know.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
I don't know how many listen. Here's the other part
about it.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
I mean, I know, not in an I talk, but
not in you do not.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
I'm not in a world where I'm in a shower
in public very often.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
It all. I can't remember the last time I took
a shower in public, right, I'm not.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
That's I mean, I remember the last time seeing a
bunch of naked women. And it was at after a
yoga class, and it was a well traveled yoga class.
A lot of people were in that class and went
and took a shower after, and a lot of them
did and they are They were just out and proud
with their nakedness, the youth.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
And but I didn't.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
There wasn't anything to comment on, like, you know, I
see the knockers on that girl, like you know what
I mean, Like I would never across my mind to
even have a notable experience.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
There was nothing out of the ordinary.
Speaker 4 (17:06):
There was nothing out of the ordinary.
Speaker 6 (17:07):
Hey, Gary, it's V from West Hollywood.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Hello. V.
Speaker 6 (17:11):
Why would it be okay for anyone in the public eye,
especially someone running for the president of the United States,
to talk about a dead man's private parts.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
Yeah, I'm speechless, and so.
Speaker 6 (17:26):
Should you be?
Speaker 2 (17:27):
O tell me okay, it's like.
Speaker 6 (17:28):
You're okay with it, Gary, have a great day.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
She reminds me of missus Ramshada Koza, who was my
first grade teacher, who would yell at me like that too.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Well, didn't work. Missus Rama Shatakota could have done a
better job.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
I say, I'm okay with What am I going to do?
Speaker 5 (17:44):
Am I going to change the fact that he said
that on Saturday to a crowd?
Speaker 1 (17:49):
No?
Speaker 5 (17:49):
I think it was idiotic for him to say that
to a crowd of people.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
That's the outrage we were looking for. It is.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
It is weird when you think about the former president
of the United States and a current candidate for president
of the United States talking about a dead man's penis
and the size of it, like that is Asini'm like,
let's go back, let's hit pause and go in our
time machines and go back to nineteen ninety eight. Could
you imagine that in us just laughing it off, we
(18:19):
would be like, what the hell?
Speaker 4 (18:21):
Who is this guy? This guy is freaking crazy just.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Talking about any dead person's penis on a public microphone
address situation, let alone.
Speaker 4 (18:32):
Let alone a candidate for president.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
It is nuts when you think about it, like that's
how warped we are now is we get on the air,
we start laughing about this and how it's hard to
say Arnold Palmer.
Speaker 5 (18:43):
But that somehow I'm endorsing the fact that he did that.
He did this because I didn't lose my head and
clutch my pearls.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
I don't know, you sound angry now, I just say it's.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
So frustrating to me that people can't listen. We're we collective.
We there's three hundred and thirty million people in the
United States. We've become ridiculous. Yeah, we have lost we
have lost it. We've completely lost it. I saw a
very funny sign over the weekend that said, has anybody
tried to turn off the United States and turn it
(19:16):
back on again?
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Like that? That's how I feel.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
I feel like we've we've got so many of these
little like digital leftovers that we need to just reboot
this thing.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
I feel like your energy bus is struggling right now,
my energy bus. You might need an oil change on
your energy bus.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
My energy bus has been running on four flats for
a while.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
You've got to take care of your bus and v
a bus that you have.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
I appreciate you calling, but it's not it's not that
I endorse him saying that.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
I thought it was ridiculous. I thought it was stupid.
Speaker 5 (19:51):
We as a collective society are better than that. I
know he was trying to be funny, but I don't
need I don't need my presidential candidate to be funny.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
I want that to have some amount of substance.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
I also think it's a reflex to this whole man
thing that has taken over the election both campaigns have
kind of weaponized being a man, right, what does that mean?
Speaker 4 (20:15):
You know?
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Kamala Harris says that ad where it's you know, I'm
a construction worker and I'm man enough to vote for
Kamala or what have you. And all these different manly
men talking about how they're going to vote for her
and how that that's manly. And I think that that
piss is off. Piss is off that makes us upset
Donald Trump and that he wants to reclaim the man card. Okay,
(20:36):
so he's going so far to the to that goalpost
that he's talking about another man's large genitals.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
Wait, hold on a second, But then that undercuts it.
It would be different if he was like, did you
see the knockers on that woman in the shower after
the yoga class?
Speaker 2 (20:51):
That would be one thing to exert his madness.
Speaker 5 (20:54):
But talking about the other guy's giant appendage, it's not man.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
I don't I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Is it like I can appreciate that.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Yeah, that's what it is. I think that's what it is.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Can you tell us about that yoga class again, but.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
This time slower.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
I will say this.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
I was sitting on the bench after the yoga class
in the locker room or what have you. And I'm
sitting there and I'm like getting my my shoes on
or something like that.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
And this girl comes and.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
She puts her foot up on the bench right next
to where I'm sitting, totally naked, and I was like,
this is in my space?
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Like this is It was too close? It was too close.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
I did not enjoy that. But anyway, do you want
your jeopardy question a minute?
Speaker 4 (21:58):
She was very natural.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
All okay, damn you asked for it.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I didn't.
Speaker 4 (22:08):
Well, then you shouldn't have played that talk back.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
You know me.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
I'm an open book ready for your jeopardy question.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Yes, I just felt like male genitalia was taking over
too much of this show. Great judges for two hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Oh this is good.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
This will this will be a palate cleanser. This biblical
king judged a child should be split in two.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
He didn't go through with.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
It, However, the biblical king kid the guy that wanted
to split the baby David Solomon, Oh.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
What hath you rot with your lack of knowledge? Unto
the Lord?
Speaker 5 (22:51):
What is a what is a baby food pouch? And
why are we letting our kids do this. We're killing
them slowly.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
People.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
I don't get any credit for speaking the Bible language.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
You've defiled every other moment of this show. You don't
get to cleanse yourself just by speaking one Bible language.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Whatever you just.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Said, I did not defile the show.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Okay, you told us about the doesn't matter.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
You asked for it.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
I never.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Well, I'm not there, so I can't get into trouble market.
The boss is live in the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
People with private health insurance would be able to pick.
Speaker 5 (23:34):
There was a very sad story out of Texas from
last night. A helicopter crashed into a radio towers, erupted
into a fireball, crashed to the ground. Four people, including
a child, were killed just about eight o'clock last night
in the Greater East End of Houston. They said it
was close enough to a local fire station that the
firefighters heard the crash, and we're obviously the first responders
(23:57):
that were there, But it was a why it hit
high enough. Apparently the helicopter hit high enough on the
tower that the debris field was extensive, which means people
had remains in their backyards.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
Yeah, awful.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
All right, so we've got to stop feeding baby food
to people who are not babies. Well, this is just
another example of the softening of the American public.
Speaker 5 (24:30):
I want to point something out. We've talked about the
movie Wally, where they're trying to see if we can
go back to Earth and because we've completely screwed it
up and the robots have to go check it out
for us. The people in Wally, you remember, on that
big space station that they're in, they just sit there.
There's like a screen in front of their face.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
That's weird.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
They just eat processed foods all day. That's also weird.
They don't eat solid food. They get their nutrients from
this mysterious drink that produced by the company called Buy
and Large, which is, you know, a point about corporate
something something. But a lot of people have asked what
goes into that drink on Wally Because there's no plant,
(25:12):
there's no cattle there. I mean, where do you get
the nutrients? This should make you think of Wally when
we tell you that Purade food pouches are being given
to children over and over.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Again, children and in some cases adults. Sales of food
pouches have increased nine hundred thousand percent since twenty ten,
overtaking jarred Pures as the predominant baby food on the market.
But I think the reason that you're seeing that massive
percentage boost nine hundred thousand is because it's not just
(25:48):
babies eating this stuff. It's not only just parents that
are harried and it's a quick snack for their young kids.
Speaker 4 (25:56):
Adults have eaten.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
These things the occasional pouch. According to doctors, the occasional
pouch food, as awful as that sounds, can be part
of a healthful diet because it's occasional. But relying on
these pouches can interfere with nutrition. It can interfere with
long term food preferences. It can interfere with dental hygiene.
(26:18):
It can interfere, interfere especially if it's younger baby, younger
children with speech and language development, and nobody knows what's
in the pouches. Listen, The La Times talks to a
woman named Caitlin who stops by Target and puts puade
food pouches for her three kids in the cart. In
(26:40):
goes a twenty four pack of unsweetened apple sauce, And
you think to yourself, Oh.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Well, it's unsweetened. It must be fine.
Speaker 5 (26:48):
The twenty four pack of the fruit and veggie blend
unsweetened must be great for a little Johnny. Finally, the
yogurt pouches for her son's breakfast. She says he'd eat
six apple sauce pouches to day if I let him.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
Ha ha ha.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Doctor Stephen Abrams is a professor of pediatrics at the
University University of Texas Hookham Horns. He says pouches are
highly processed foods. They serve as a quick snack, but
they cannot make up most of your toddler's diet.
Speaker 5 (27:23):
There is something to be said about the simple mechanics
of eating and eating different foods, and when you pure
something like apples, you don't get the same fiber content,
the same fiber workings through your body.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
You know, gi tracked, you can't.
Speaker 5 (27:44):
It's easier, I get it, but it's also going to
cause problems down the line.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Well, kids are not going to know how to chew.
It sounds like a very human thing, but some doctors
are saying that children are so reliant on the smooth,
sweet taste of these pouches that they've developed food and
texture aversions they refuse to eat regular fruits or vegetables,
And he says, in the long run, we're gonna pay
(28:10):
for it. Like, yes, they're very convenient. No, no glass
jars that kind of a deal. You can just pop
them in your diaper bag or your bag or the car,
or your kid's backpack or what have you. But convenient
does not always mean good for you. Actually, the converse
(28:31):
is true.
Speaker 5 (28:32):
Doctor Tanya Altman is a pediatrician over in Calabasis, and
she says, not all pouches are created equals. Sometimes they
can be a contributor to a family's nutrition. Those that
don't have added sugars or salt could even have advantages
over other processed snacks, et cetera. But getting like you said,
it's not just as simple as here's a treat, shut
(28:53):
up and don't bother me, or this, you know, stave
off your hunger for an hour or two until we
can get you some actual food.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Well, and remember who's behind the processed foods and the
processed foods push it's the tobacco industry, and manufacturers are
appealing to parents by marketing these pouches as all natural,
organic containing vegetables, but that does not reflect on what's inside.
They said that a green pouch advertised as broccoli pear
(29:20):
might turn out to be more a little more pear more,
a little more than pear puree, not broccoli.
Speaker 5 (29:30):
And pediatricians will tell you that the purade anything peaes
BROCCOLI's pears whatever.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
After about after.
Speaker 5 (29:39):
About nine months, you want to get away from the
baby food stuff. You want to give them the things
that they have to manipulate with their hands, to put
in their mouth, to learn to chew, to swallow, to drink,
I mean all of that.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I mean that's part of writing on your energy bus,
and you know, encountering adversity like how do I eat
these raspberries in my high chair? Oh, make a big
mess in my face with them till I figure out
that they go right there in that hole.
Speaker 5 (30:06):
To that end, there's a statistic that I saw today
the average American can the average American consumes about eighty
pounds of sugar per year.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Wow, A lot of times people don't know, you know,
how much sugar is in whatever they're ingesting' I mean
fruit is kind of surprising when you think about how
much sugar's and fruit. I mean it's good. It's good sugar,
but it's better than eating you know, candy, but still
a lot of sugar in the.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Pouch of processed sugar. Sounds good.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
Remember those what are they called pixie sticks?
Speaker 2 (30:41):
Do I?
Speaker 1 (30:43):
And remember not just the little ones with the paper,
but the ones you'd get at the little league game.
And they were about, oh, I don't know, two feet long,
and it was plastic and it was about an inch
of a diameter of sugar.
Speaker 4 (30:56):
It just straight sugar.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
And the little spoon paddles was also at a.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Fun dip, fun dip? Yes, is that what you're talking about? Oh,
I'm talking about the whatever you just called it. Oh,
the pixie sticks? Yes, Oh, it was just the straw full.
Speaker 4 (31:11):
Of straw full of it, the plastic straw.
Speaker 5 (31:13):
No, I'm thinking of the something else. The there was
a pouch and you dip you, yeah.
Speaker 4 (31:19):
That's the fun dip.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
And there was a different color h pouch was a
different color of sugar, and then they had the white
sugar sticks on the end.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
How do we have any teeth left?
Speaker 4 (31:29):
How the hell? This is why I've paid dental bills
for my whole life. My parents have who signed.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Off on fun dip like where was the FDA and
does it still exist?
Speaker 2 (31:42):
Not the way it should?
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Oh my god, here kid mainline sugar and then try
to go to sleep.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
You've been listening to The Gary and Shannon Show.
Speaker 5 (31:52):
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 app
This is Gary and Shannon, and you're listening to KFI
AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Somebody liked your Chiefs rand in Orange County.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
I just have to say to Shannon, after your rant
about the Chiefs jaded party of one your tables.
Speaker 4 (00:19):
Ready, I'm not jaded. It's obvious.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Just anybody who's watched the Chiefs this season knows that
they are the worst undefeated team to watch.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
It's awful.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
I mean, here's the thing. I don't hate Patrick Mahomes.
I don't hate Tom Brady. By the way, Tom Brady
did a really great job. It's the first time I
really listened to an entire game that he called Niners Chiefs.
Speaker 4 (00:43):
He was really good.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
He was entertaining, he was informative, he wasn't too egotistical.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
I loved it.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Well, I hate Tom Brady, don't hate Patrick Mahomes. I
think they're great at what they do. Patrick Mahomes turning
that no play into a thirty three yard run incredible.
I mean, we're watching history or watching magic, and I'm
not gonna put that down. I'm just saying, from top
to bottom, they are not a very well put together
(01:10):
team to show that six.
Speaker 5 (01:11):
And zero record, which is ironic because it was last
year where they got off to such an awful start
but were better than their record was exactly Yeah, a
couple of stories that were following people with private health
insurance would be able to pick up over the counter
methods of birth control like condoms and morning after pills, etc.
For under a new rule the White House proposed today
(01:32):
that without a doctor's prescription, women may pay as much
as fifty bucks for morning after pills, and women who
delay buying the pill in order to get to a
doctor's prescription could jeopardize the purpose of it in the
first place. So this new rule from the White House
would also require insurers to bear the cost of an
O pill, the only FDA approved over the counter birth
(01:54):
control pill.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
It's time for swamp watch.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Swamp is horrible.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Government doesn't work. Man, make this like a reality TV show.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Wasn't bad news?
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Always a pleasure to be anywhere from Washington, d C.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
Hey Joe, a town all.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Too clearly built on a swamp and in so many
ways still a swamp.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
I have a bunch of malarkey.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Nobody said drained the swamp.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
I said, Oh, that's so gosh.
Speaker 5 (02:22):
You know the thing, I think the image from the
weekend has got to be Donald Trump in a McDonald's apron,
are you. I mean, I can see they shut down
that that McDonald's franchise until four o'clock in the afternoon
(02:44):
yesterday so that he could he could man the friar
and work the drive through.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
He has a little bit of an obsession when it
comes to McDonald's. I mean it's been reported before, we
talked about it earlier. He likes his McDonald's. He had
McDonald's delivered to the White House. Jared crish I wrote
in his memoir that he knew Trump was better from
COVID when he had his big mac and fish filet
and fries and shake delivered, that he knew he was
on the mend.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
This is all because Kamala Harris I guess purported to.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Work at a McDonald's in nineteen eighty three. She's very
big with advertising that she grew up in the middle
class and that she worked at McDonald's during a summer
in college, that she manned the friar and other stations
there at the McDonald's.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
Well, apparently there's no record of it.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
There's no pay stubs, there's no record of for I
don't know how I would prove that I worked at
a deli for four years, five years through high school
and college. It doesn't exist anymore. I certainly don't have
a pay stub from nineteen ninety seven. You know, how
do you prove that kind of work record. I don't know,
(03:54):
save for maybe like a picture of you behind the counter,
But I don't know if.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
You'd ever take that picture. It's hard to prove.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
But anyway, because there's no proof, this is one of
the hills that the campaign, the Trump campaign, is dying on,
and so they and it was a fun stunt having
somebody who loves McDonald's, loves business, American business, go and
work the drive through for fifteen minutes. He seemed likable
in that video with the French fries and the more
likable moments he can have and not the name calling,
(04:23):
if he just stuck to being the way he was
with John Cobalt in that interview, of just being a
nice guy, human like two dudes, just talking the way
he's talking to the normal everyday people in the drive
through line. That's the foot he should lead with. In
my opinion, you know, you put that next to JD.
Vance's colossal failure of a trip to the donut shop
(04:44):
where he didn't seem like he could talk to real people.
And maybe that's because he's an academic and an elite.
Maybe he's just not good with talking to strangers. But
Trump is Why wouldn't you lead.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
With that talking to strangers?
Speaker 5 (04:55):
Well, the Harris campaign came out and said that this
is exactly what next another Trump presidency would be, which
is him exploiting working people for his own gain. Now
the what's his name Joseph Costello, spokesman for the Harris campaign,
Trump doesn't understand what it's like to work for a living,
(05:16):
no matter how many staged photo ops he does, and
his entire second term plan is to give himself, his
wealthy buddies and giant corporations another massive tax cut.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
It's it's true, but then you sound like you're pooh
poohing what was a nice little moment of somebody out
in the community.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
They're not gonna he's They would never give him credit
for making a good political choice.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
But that way to say there's a way to say,
like something clever about him serving fries or something. I
don't know, there's a way to not sound like you're
just crapping on everything.
Speaker 5 (05:49):
Just but look at the imagery that they've been trying
to get Trump to use. Him sticking his head out
of a drive through window, waring a McDonald's apron is
very America.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
It just is.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
That's I mean, that's it is him at a Pittsburgh
Steelers game last night. It's a very and that kind
of imagery I think goes pretty far when you're trying
if you are one of the two percent or whatever
who's undecided.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
It does.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Like we've talked about people want humans in twenty twenty four,
you want your politicians to speak plainly to you. You
want them to be relatable, You want them to not
talk down to you. Well, what says I'm just like you,
even though we know he's not just like us? But
what says that? And it's the Steelers game and it's
(06:38):
the McDonald's.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
And you want him to talk plainly but not too plain.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
Kamala Harris that you've had enough that you just can't
take it anymore. We can't stand you, your ash vice president.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
That is awful, Like again, why would you Why would
you let that side of you have a microphone?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
That's he's such an indidate.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Like when they let Antonio Brown have an open mic
over the weekend. Who've signed off on that? That could
have gone sideways real quick. So I told you they
had like a bunch of high school students here and
they did some sort of assembly, national anthem, the whole bit.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
Now they haven't broken up into four groups.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
And the group that is in the section right below
the radio booth. It's like a motivational talk and I'm
getting some free therapy right now. They're going over this book.
It's called the Energy Bus. Ten Rules to fuel your life,
work and team with positive energy. And it's like all
this Tony Robbins stuff. Oh wow, it's like you're the
(07:45):
driver of your own bus.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
They're doing this on game day.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah, I think it's it's just kind of I guess
it would be really cool if you're a high school
student and you have some sort of a workshop or
assembly at the at the stadium. It'd be pretty cool.
But yeah, I mean, free therapy. Be man, positive energy.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
Gary.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
It's very important if you if you come across the
challenges and the adversity in your life that you're certain
to come across as you're driving your bus, whether it's
somebody who doesn't like you, bad weather, what have you.
If you approach that with positive energy, it makes those
challenges a lot easier. Well, like like in the triathlon,
(08:25):
you know, you got to look at it positively, like, yeah,
you swim the miles and then you realize it's a
lot going to be a lot easier to get on
that bike, and as soon as you get off that bike,
you note it's going to be your favorite part of
the run.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
You're going to put in your air posit.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
So no, no, I just did a one hundred miles
on my bike, and now I got to run a marathon.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
Your positive energy is not happening with your energy.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
Best room out positive the chafing, I listen, you got
to put gold bond on those babies. Couple things. People
have been calling and suggesting that this the Social Security
Administration would know if Kamala Harris worked at McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Okay, nobody's going to take that call, I know.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Going back to nineteen eighty three.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
But yeah, I'm sure those records are I'm sure Social
Security has everything filed away perfectly.
Speaker 5 (09:15):
Well, I mean they I'm assuming they've kept my employment records.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
No, since I turned eighteen.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
They don't know about you with the stint at the
Chinese delivery restaurant.
Speaker 5 (09:26):
Before before I was eighteen, or the movie theater and
the movie theater, or the kennels also under eighteen, and
all that was under the table. Of course, it was
well that McDonald's isn't going to be under the table.
My job was under the table, but again not McDonald's.
You worked at a sketchy deli.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
It was not sketchy, wonderful place.
Speaker 5 (09:51):
One of the things that has come up today is
that Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are focusing on battleground states.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
That's all we're going to see them do for the
next t two weeks.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
It looks like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan have dates with
Vice President Harris. She's been traveling around with former Congresswoman
Liz Cheney. Trump is spending his day in North Carolina.
He's got events, he's got a rally, he's got faith
leader meeting. Scheduled to be back in North Carolina again
on Tuesday. And one of the things he did this
(10:22):
morning was he was talking with first responders and people
still recovering from Hurricane Helene. The critical portion of who's
going to choose the next president, will you know, is
still that sort of gray area of those people who
claim that they are still undecided. Because this new Washington
Post poll that came out five thousand registered voters, well
(10:44):
it's a pretty large sample size. Forty seven percent say
they will either definitely or probably support Kamala Harris. Forty
seven percent say they will either definitely or probably support
Donald Trump. So whatever you know, questions you think are
going to be answered November fifth, might not be, might
take several days.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Tim Walls went on the View to talk about Elon
Musk's recent pledge to give away millions of dollars to
registered voters in battleground states.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
That's what you do when you have no plan for
the public, when you have no economic plan that's going
to benefit the middle class, when you have no plan
to protect reproductive rights, when you have no plan to
address climate change and produce American energy, you go to
these type of tactics.
Speaker 5 (11:27):
So the plan, the plan from Elon Musk is he
wanted people to sign a petition that supported express support
for the First Amendment and the Second Amendment. You could
only sign that petition if you were in one of
these battleground states, and you could only sign the petition
if you were a registered voter. So there are questions
(11:49):
about whether or not this is actually legal.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Tim Walls was also asked if his thoughts on Arnold
Palmer Oh no, and Trump's recent offscript comments about Arnold
Palmer's genitalia.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Oh, I didn't pull that.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
He said, Well, I'll tell you what he said. You
just said I'm passing on that one.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Well, that's smart.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Yeah, you shouldn't.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Touch anybody else's genitals, certainly.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Not especially are no longer with us.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Yeah, Arnold have been gone for nearly a decade.
Speaker 5 (12:22):
Only a big honker, and I refused to say it,
but when he took showers with the other pros, they
came out of there.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
They said, Oh my god, that's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
I don't think I've ever heard a man talk about
another man's penis.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Not in such glowing terms, maybe.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
In any term, but I guess I wouldn't be in
those circles who would tell me.
Speaker 5 (12:54):
Right again, I'll only point out that if it was
if it was an exceptional thing. That's that might rise
to the level. But I'm not going to get out
of a shower and in a gym and go, hey,
look at those average guys.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Right, look at your average.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
You could pick a lock with that one.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
I believe you said if it makes an impact.
Speaker 5 (13:17):
Well, listen, you walk down the street every day, right,
and you run into hundreds, maybe a couple thousand people,
depending on where you work and what you see. It's
only the ones that are standouts that are going to
catch your attention, right, That's what I.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Just didn't know that men looked at other men's genitalia.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
It's not like it's not like you're looking around to repair.
But again, if it's if to look at it, if
you're Arnold Palmer, and it's just unavoidable.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
Right right, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (13:54):
Hey, we have some wellness suggestions for you, some some
things that are going on. We are absolutely ruining our
children and no one is doing anything about it.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
Oh that sounds uplifting.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Yeah, I've got a story about a cat.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Is it uplifting?
Speaker 3 (14:11):
No?
Speaker 4 (14:11):
That was a joke.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
That was because remember the last cat story. Yes, And
you were like, why are you talking right now? Why
is this being brought up?
Speaker 5 (14:19):
Why are you just telling me what the comic strip says?
Why are you just explaining the YouTube.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Video to me?
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Gary and Channa?
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Waita, Now you sound angry?
Speaker 4 (14:29):
Oh I do? I don't. I'm not. I'm not angry.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Are you sure?
Speaker 4 (14:32):
No? This is my happy face?
Speaker 1 (14:35):
That's not It is.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Rule number seven? What's rule number seven?
Speaker 4 (14:44):
Rule number seven is surround yourself with people who are enthusiastic.
Yay uh. He loves women's volleyball. And here's why. Oh boy,
a five game notch.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
They can lose the first two games, they're down in
the third deciding game, another point gets scored on them,
and what do they do? They get up off the court,
they come together.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Not the greatest sports analogy. This is awful.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
This is awful.
Speaker 6 (15:15):
I'm a delivery driver and when Gary said look at
that when it can pick a luck, I.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
Almost dropped everything that was hilarious. Good word, guys, keep
it up. Stolen valor, stolen valor. It's not my joke.
It was from Saturday Night Live.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
It was the delivery though. For me, I've been hearing
from people that this is a thing that guys do
talk about this that it's like a dude thing, because
dudes are, you know, kind of focused on their their penis.
I hear from people on the text that Petros does
this a lot.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
He talks about he doesn't talk about his own.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
I don't know. I haven't heard that show in a while,
but he did.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
Petros doesn't talk about average. He's not talking about average.
You're talking about guys that would you know you could
put them.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
I didn't know that he was.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Yeah, I guess guys are kind of it's kind of
like their way of measuring how they measure up in
this department. So apparently it is something dudes talk about.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
I didn't know.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
I don't know how many listen. Here's the other part
about it.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
I mean, I know, not in an I talk, but
not in you do not.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
I'm not in a world where I'm in a shower
in public very often.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
It all. I can't remember the last time I took
a shower in public, right, I'm not.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
That's I mean, I remember the last time seeing a
bunch of naked women. And it was at after a
yoga class, and it was a well traveled yoga class.
A lot of people were in that class and went
and took a shower after, and a lot of them
did and they are They were just out and proud
with their nakedness, the youth.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
And but I didn't.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
There wasn't anything to comment on, like, you know, I
see the knockers on that girl, like you know what
I mean, Like I would never across my mind to
even have a notable experience.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
There was nothing out of the ordinary.
Speaker 4 (17:06):
There was nothing out of the ordinary.
Speaker 6 (17:07):
Hey, Gary, it's V from West Hollywood.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Hello. V.
Speaker 6 (17:11):
Why would it be okay for anyone in the public eye,
especially someone running for the president of the United States,
to talk about a dead man's private parts.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
Yeah, I'm speechless, and so.
Speaker 6 (17:26):
Should you be?
Speaker 2 (17:27):
O tell me okay, it's like.
Speaker 6 (17:28):
You're okay with it, Gary, have a great day.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
She reminds me of missus Ramshada Koza, who was my
first grade teacher, who would yell at me like that too.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Well, didn't work. Missus Rama Shatakota could have done a
better job.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
I say, I'm okay with What am I going to do?
Speaker 5 (17:44):
Am I going to change the fact that he said
that on Saturday to a crowd?
Speaker 1 (17:49):
No?
Speaker 5 (17:49):
I think it was idiotic for him to say that
to a crowd of people.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
That's the outrage we were looking for. It is.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
It is weird when you think about the former president
of the United States and a current candidate for president
of the United States talking about a dead man's penis
and the size of it, like that is Asini'm like,
let's go back, let's hit pause and go in our
time machines and go back to nineteen ninety eight. Could
you imagine that in us just laughing it off, we
(18:19):
would be like, what the hell?
Speaker 4 (18:21):
Who is this guy? This guy is freaking crazy just.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Talking about any dead person's penis on a public microphone
address situation, let alone.
Speaker 4 (18:32):
Let alone a candidate for president.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
It is nuts when you think about it, like that's
how warped we are now is we get on the air,
we start laughing about this and how it's hard to
say Arnold Palmer.
Speaker 5 (18:43):
But that somehow I'm endorsing the fact that he did that.
He did this because I didn't lose my head and
clutch my pearls.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
I don't know, you sound angry now, I just say it's.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
So frustrating to me that people can't listen. We're we collective.
We there's three hundred and thirty million people in the
United States. We've become ridiculous. Yeah, we have lost we
have lost it. We've completely lost it. I saw a
very funny sign over the weekend that said, has anybody
tried to turn off the United States and turn it
(19:16):
back on again?
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Like that? That's how I feel.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
I feel like we've we've got so many of these
little like digital leftovers that we need to just reboot
this thing.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
I feel like your energy bus is struggling right now,
my energy bus. You might need an oil change on
your energy bus.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
My energy bus has been running on four flats for
a while.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
You've got to take care of your bus and v
a bus that you have.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
I appreciate you calling, but it's not it's not that
I endorse him saying that.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
I thought it was ridiculous. I thought it was stupid.
Speaker 5 (19:51):
We as a collective society are better than that. I
know he was trying to be funny, but I don't
need I don't need my presidential candidate to be funny.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
I want that to have some amount of substance.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
I also think it's a reflex to this whole man
thing that has taken over the election both campaigns have
kind of weaponized being a man, right, what does that mean?
Speaker 4 (20:15):
You know?
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Kamala Harris says that ad where it's you know, I'm
a construction worker and I'm man enough to vote for
Kamala or what have you. And all these different manly
men talking about how they're going to vote for her
and how that that's manly. And I think that that
piss is off. Piss is off that makes us upset
Donald Trump and that he wants to reclaim the man card. Okay,
(20:36):
so he's going so far to the to that goalpost
that he's talking about another man's large genitals.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
Wait, hold on a second, But then that undercuts it.
It would be different if he was like, did you
see the knockers on that woman in the shower after
the yoga class?
Speaker 2 (20:51):
That would be one thing to exert his madness.
Speaker 5 (20:54):
But talking about the other guy's giant appendage, it's not man.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
I don't I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Is it like I can appreciate that.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Yeah, that's what it is. I think that's what it is.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Can you tell us about that yoga class again, but.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
This time slower.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
I will say this.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
I was sitting on the bench after the yoga class
in the locker room or what have you. And I'm
sitting there and I'm like getting my my shoes on
or something like that.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
And this girl comes and.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
She puts her foot up on the bench right next
to where I'm sitting, totally naked, and I was like,
this is in my space?
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Like this is It was too close? It was too close.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
I did not enjoy that. But anyway, do you want
your jeopardy question a minute?
Speaker 4 (21:58):
She was very natural.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
All okay, damn you asked for it.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I didn't.
Speaker 4 (22:08):
Well, then you shouldn't have played that talk back.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
You know me.
Speaker 4 (22:11):
I'm an open book ready for your jeopardy question.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Yes, I just felt like male genitalia was taking over
too much of this show. Great judges for two hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Oh this is good.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
This will this will be a palate cleanser. This biblical
king judged a child should be split in two.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
He didn't go through with.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
It, However, the biblical king kid the guy that wanted
to split the baby David Solomon, Oh.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
What hath you rot with your lack of knowledge? Unto
the Lord?
Speaker 5 (22:51):
What is a what is a baby food pouch? And
why are we letting our kids do this. We're killing
them slowly.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
People.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
I don't get any credit for speaking the Bible language.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
You've defiled every other moment of this show. You don't
get to cleanse yourself just by speaking one Bible language.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Whatever you just.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Said, I did not defile the show.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Okay, you told us about the doesn't matter.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
You asked for it.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
I never.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Well, I'm not there, so I can't get into trouble market.
The boss is live in the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
People with private health insurance would be able to pick.
Speaker 5 (23:34):
There was a very sad story out of Texas from
last night. A helicopter crashed into a radio towers, erupted
into a fireball, crashed to the ground. Four people, including
a child, were killed just about eight o'clock last night
in the Greater East End of Houston. They said it
was close enough to a local fire station that the
firefighters heard the crash, and we're obviously the first responders
(23:57):
that were there, But it was a why it hit
high enough. Apparently the helicopter hit high enough on the
tower that the debris field was extensive, which means people
had remains in their backyards.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
Yeah, awful.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
All right, so we've got to stop feeding baby food
to people who are not babies. Well, this is just
another example of the softening of the American public.
Speaker 5 (24:30):
I want to point something out. We've talked about the
movie Wally, where they're trying to see if we can
go back to Earth and because we've completely screwed it
up and the robots have to go check it out
for us. The people in Wally, you remember, on that
big space station that they're in, they just sit there.
There's like a screen in front of their face.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
That's weird.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
They just eat processed foods all day. That's also weird.
They don't eat solid food. They get their nutrients from
this mysterious drink that produced by the company called Buy
and Large, which is, you know, a point about corporate
something something. But a lot of people have asked what
goes into that drink on Wally Because there's no plant,
(25:12):
there's no cattle there. I mean, where do you get
the nutrients? This should make you think of Wally when
we tell you that Purade food pouches are being given
to children over and over.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
Again, children and in some cases adults. Sales of food
pouches have increased nine hundred thousand percent since twenty ten,
overtaking jarred Pures as the predominant baby food on the market.
But I think the reason that you're seeing that massive
percentage boost nine hundred thousand is because it's not just
(25:48):
babies eating this stuff. It's not only just parents that
are harried and it's a quick snack for their young kids.
Speaker 4 (25:56):
Adults have eaten.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
These things the occasional pouch. According to doctors, the occasional
pouch food, as awful as that sounds, can be part
of a healthful diet because it's occasional. But relying on
these pouches can interfere with nutrition. It can interfere with
long term food preferences. It can interfere with dental hygiene.
(26:18):
It can interfere, interfere especially if it's younger baby, younger
children with speech and language development, and nobody knows what's
in the pouches. Listen, The La Times talks to a
woman named Caitlin who stops by Target and puts puade
food pouches for her three kids in the cart. In
(26:40):
goes a twenty four pack of unsweetened apple sauce, And
you think to yourself, Oh.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Well, it's unsweetened. It must be fine.
Speaker 5 (26:48):
The twenty four pack of the fruit and veggie blend
unsweetened must be great for a little Johnny. Finally, the
yogurt pouches for her son's breakfast. She says he'd eat
six apple sauce pouches to day if I let him.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
Ha ha ha.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Doctor Stephen Abrams is a professor of pediatrics at the
University University of Texas Hookham Horns. He says pouches are
highly processed foods. They serve as a quick snack, but
they cannot make up most of your toddler's diet.
Speaker 5 (27:23):
There is something to be said about the simple mechanics
of eating and eating different foods, and when you pure
something like apples, you don't get the same fiber content,
the same fiber workings through your body.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
You know, gi tracked, you can't.
Speaker 5 (27:44):
It's easier, I get it, but it's also going to
cause problems down the line.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Well, kids are not going to know how to chew.
It sounds like a very human thing, but some doctors
are saying that children are so reliant on the smooth,
sweet taste of these pouches that they've developed food and
texture aversions they refuse to eat regular fruits or vegetables,
And he says, in the long run, we're gonna pay
(28:10):
for it. Like, yes, they're very convenient. No, no glass
jars that kind of a deal. You can just pop
them in your diaper bag or your bag or the car,
or your kid's backpack or what have you. But convenient
does not always mean good for you. Actually, the converse
(28:31):
is true.
Speaker 5 (28:32):
Doctor Tanya Altman is a pediatrician over in Calabasis, and
she says, not all pouches are created equals. Sometimes they
can be a contributor to a family's nutrition. Those that
don't have added sugars or salt could even have advantages
over other processed snacks, et cetera. But getting like you said,
it's not just as simple as here's a treat, shut
(28:53):
up and don't bother me, or this, you know, stave
off your hunger for an hour or two until we
can get you some actual food.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Well, and remember who's behind the processed foods and the
processed foods push it's the tobacco industry, and manufacturers are
appealing to parents by marketing these pouches as all natural,
organic containing vegetables, but that does not reflect on what's inside.
They said that a green pouch advertised as broccoli pear
(29:20):
might turn out to be more a little more pear more,
a little more than pear puree, not broccoli.
Speaker 5 (29:30):
And pediatricians will tell you that the purade anything peaes
BROCCOLI's pears whatever.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
After about after.
Speaker 5 (29:39):
About nine months, you want to get away from the
baby food stuff. You want to give them the things
that they have to manipulate with their hands, to put
in their mouth, to learn to chew, to swallow, to drink,
I mean all of that.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I mean that's part of writing on your energy bus,
and you know, encountering adversity like how do I eat
these raspberries in my high chair? Oh, make a big
mess in my face with them till I figure out
that they go right there in that hole.
Speaker 5 (30:06):
To that end, there's a statistic that I saw today
the average American can the average American consumes about eighty
pounds of sugar per year.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Wow, A lot of times people don't know, you know,
how much sugar is in whatever they're ingesting' I mean
fruit is kind of surprising when you think about how
much sugar's and fruit. I mean it's good. It's good sugar,
but it's better than eating you know, candy, but still
a lot of sugar in the.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Pouch of processed sugar. Sounds good.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
Remember those what are they called pixie sticks?
Speaker 2 (30:41):
Do I?
Speaker 1 (30:43):
And remember not just the little ones with the paper,
but the ones you'd get at the little league game.
And they were about, oh, I don't know, two feet long,
and it was plastic and it was about an inch
of a diameter of sugar.
Speaker 4 (30:56):
It just straight sugar.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
And the little spoon paddles was also at a.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
Fun dip, fun dip? Yes, is that what you're talking about? Oh,
I'm talking about the whatever you just called it. Oh,
the pixie sticks? Yes, Oh, it was just the straw full.
Speaker 4 (31:11):
Of straw full of it, the plastic straw.
Speaker 5 (31:13):
No, I'm thinking of the something else. The there was
a pouch and you dip you, yeah.
Speaker 4 (31:19):
That's the fun dip.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
And there was a different color h pouch was a
different color of sugar, and then they had the white
sugar sticks on the end.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
How do we have any teeth left?
Speaker 4 (31:29):
How the hell? This is why I've paid dental bills
for my whole life. My parents have who signed.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Off on fun dip like where was the FDA and
does it still exist?
Speaker 2 (31:42):
Not the way it should?
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Oh my god, here kid mainline sugar and then try
to go to sleep.
