This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to kf
I A M six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
What are you doing on the Friday, November eighth?
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Oh, I'm so glad? Can we get some music for
this announcement? Music or just yeah, role no, I need music.
I'm feeling a loto.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
They where a body, body were.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
The spiritual vibe less, less formal. I still feel a
little sacrilegious with this one. Today The Trumpets of Jesus
(00:46):
is letting everybody know far and wide we will be
out Luchitor Breweryday.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
November eight is our next news and Bruse at lucid
Or Brewing in Chino Hills, out there doing the show
nine to one and also promoting a very cool event
that they're doing called Hops in the Hills that weekend.
It's gonna help benefit the Chino Valley Fire Foundation. So
not only are we going to be out there swag prices,
(01:15):
tickets to the roof est, bunch of stuff like that,
the Hops in the Hills event is going to happen
that next day, so we'll get everything warmed up, get
the blood pumping.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Maybe get the blood pumping. It's always pumping at Luchador.
It's a great party time.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
So Friday, November eight.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Oh and, somebody reminded me that that Monday is Veterans Day,
so you can make a four day weekend out of
it if you wanted to.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
I don't know why you would.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Say, Gary and Shannon. Yeah, I was laughing about your
inability to sleep in. I've had that problem for years.
The worst place to not be able to sleep in
is on a cruise ship, because nobody except the staff
gets up before eight or nine am.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
On a cruise that's the best time.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
The last cruise we took, I was helping them set
up the buffet because not one other person was up
on the boat to even talk to. So that's that's
kind of a problem. Have a good day.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
I also find it a problem that a passenger is
able to set up a buffet. I mean, who knows
what he's been doing with those hands? You know, nobody knows.
I like a cruise ship in the morning because nobody's
up yet, you have.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
The whole ship to yourself. I don't know if I've
ever still.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Not a winner for me, No, I don't know if
I'll ever go back do many people, a lot of people,
a lot of people. Gavin Newsom has talked over the
weekend about doubling, more than doubling the annual amount of
money allocated to California's film and TV tax credits. Obviously,
Hollywood has been losing business for years because other cities
(02:48):
are offering great incentives.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
And we got to play the game. I mean, we
have to absolutely play this game. States like Atlanta, I'm sorry,
States like Georgia where Atlanta is a city, States like
North Carolina, Canadian provinces like British Columbia, they all do
these massive, massive tax incentives for otherwise Hollywood productions to
(03:12):
go and film and do TV and movies.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
There maybe a little counterproductive for Gavin Newsome if we're
playing the long game, don't you want more Liberals in
Georgia and North Carolina for when you run for presidents?
Speaker 3 (03:26):
That's an interesting way to put in.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
But he's got to be able to show that he
has a track record for business expansion in California, considering
it's been so bleak here for small business owners. Productions
have been filming in other states because of those high
tax incentives and According to this plan that he talked
about yesterday, he would expand the annual tax credit to
seven hundred and fifty million dollars, up from the current
(03:51):
total of three thirty so more than double it. It
would make California the top state for capped film incentive
pro and that would surpass even New York. If this
makes its way through the legislature, it could be in
place as early as July of next year.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
It would run for about five years. They said.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
The competitive disadvantage right now for California is so pronounced.
About seventy one percent of the projects that were rejected
by California's film and TV text credit program then turned
around and went somewhere out of state and did their
production elsewhere. And he said, we have to do everything
we can to strengthen and protect one of our foundational
(04:35):
pillars in Los Angeles.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
We'll see, we'll see where it goes.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
A study of the program found that for every tax dollar,
every sorry, every tax credit dollar that's approved, it generates
at least twenty four dollars and forty cents in output.
That's a pretty strong investment if you look at a
smart use of tax money in the state.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Of California election see definitely having an impact when it
comes to mental health. A national survey conducted by a
private mental health treatment system, So keep that in mind.
Examine the amount of anxiety brought on by an election season.
In two thousand Americans, about one in five adults reported
election content negatively affected their plans. It negatively affected their
(05:24):
mental health and altered their plans. Millennials and gen z
have reported delaying plans for college, moving, getting married, or
having kids because of political anxiety.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
I want to hit them on the side of the head.
Maybe that's what gives them anxiety. That's and everybody's just
okay with that. We're okay with letting kids feel like
that's enough to prevent them from moving.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
It's it's also a nice excuse to postpone massive milestones
that may be the cause of your real anxiety.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Right boy.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Along those lines, these people are concerned about the upcoming election.
Ap NORC Center for Public Affairs Research talks about the
consistent concerns. About four in ten registered voters say they
are extremely or very worried about violent attempts to overturn
the election results, whatever they may be.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
After next Tuesday, guys, our nightmare is over. Quarter pounders
will be back on the menu at McDonald's this week.
That's all the contaminated products have been removed from the
supply chain. KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell all removed onions
(06:48):
from their menus out of an abundance of caution.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
At the end of the story, Yeah, sure, yeah, that's
good because I was worried about I know you were.
I stopped at a Farmer Boys yesterday. Oh, first time
in my life, I've never been to a Farmer Boys.
What is the fair there?
Speaker 3 (07:09):
Burgers and stuff. We've had breakfast. We had a little
breakfast sandwich on the way driving home from Marongo. It
was great.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
It was great bacon, A fresh squeeze orange juice. Oh,
I love orangeeng I mean it was really good.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
That tasted.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
I love a jarish sugar, fresh squeeze sugar God's sugar though, yes,
not refined God's sugar.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Well, the real nutrients is in the pulp of the orange. Right.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
I didn't get any fiber. Well, there's probably some, but
I didn't get a lot.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
There's a man in Orange County claims to be the
winner of a forty four million dollar powerball jackpot. But
it's been nine weeks he has not seen a penny.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
He says that he's the winner. Jerry likes playing the
lottery pretty often. He does it all Fantasy five, Powerball, Superlatto, Mega,
I play all the games.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
It was like the casino.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
You didn't play any slot machines. I did? You did?
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Yeah? Are you kidding?
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (08:09):
I played? I played a Chinese slot machine name. I
don't remember something dragon. I played video poker. I played
express x poker. I played triple play triple triple bonus,
play double double bonus, play spin x poker. I played pigau,
I played blackjack. I played roulette.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
So how much your sister did not know anything was
going on in that video poker machine that she was playing.
You need to sit her down and tell her what's happening.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I can't get involved with teaching people how to gamble.
Either you have it or you don't.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Ahead of the powerball drawing in August, Jerry walked into
his neighborhood rouse to buy a lottery ticket. All of
his favorite numbers, all five numbers, including the number ten
he chose as the power ball.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
They were all drawn.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
He says he is still waiting for the payout. He
says it was exciting because you don't ever anticipate hitting
all six numbers on the power ball. You walk out
get hit by lightning before you win that one. Now,
he said, the process is horrible for the winner of
a big Latto prize. They won't tell you this, but
(09:19):
by this date you'll get the funds. They don't tell
you that. They leave it open ended, so you're sitting
and waiting daily hoping that you're going to.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Get the funds.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Carolyn Becker is with the California State Lottery. She said
the fastest a winner might get paid is four weeks,
but that doesn't happen very often, they said. Any person
claiming to have a winning ticket asked to go through
a lengthy vetting process includes an investigation by their law
enforcement team, cross checking the alleged winner doesn't owe the
state any money in taxes or child support as well.
(09:50):
Lottery officials say the goals have each case done in
six to eight weeks, but it could take longer. Where
does the interest go on that sitting there in the
lottery's account forty four for several weeks? Nine weeks that's
a good chunk of change. Sounds kind of shady to me,
doesn't it?
Speaker 3 (10:07):
What the state doing something shady? How dare you?
Speaker 2 (10:13):
He does suggest that as we're nine weeks now, right,
nine weeks later, that's outside of the usual six to
eight weeks that the lot So there must be something
the farious going on, or it's just taking a little
bit longer for them to get the Hmmm. I don't
know why that is such a big deal other than yes,
(10:35):
the state is the state's making money off of their
own The scheme, the careful investigation that they do sounds
like a Ponzi scheme, a pyramid scheme.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Keeps the keeps the lights on. Perhaps it's the lottery off.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Dairy farmer speaking of here in California are dealing with
this steadily advancing outbreak of bird flu in dairy cows,
who's been reported more than one hundred and seventy herds
here in California since late August. The state now accounts
for nearly half of all of the US cases that
are detected in dairy cows since this outbreak began several
(11:12):
months ago.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
The state.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Obviously, California produces more milk than any other state in
the nation, and the outbreak has not yet led to
milk shortages, but there is a concern that that could
change if the bird flu continues to spread amongst the cows.
There was a comedian, Fahim Anwar, showering at a hotel
in Austin and hated the fact that the water was
(11:38):
flowing everywhere in the hotel room shallow pool formed a
water He realized that he was going to have to
work this into his act, and he complained about the
fact that there was a half door the on the shower.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
It's true. I even remember going to a place and
there was no door in the bathroom for the own
entire bathroom, which is very sad.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I feel like that was in Chicago. Possibly there was
a hotel room recently that I stayed in that didn't
have a door.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Yeah, hotels have been removing doors on the bathroom in
their place. Designers are installing curtains, frosted or fogged glass,
saloon or sliding doors, or sometimes just nothing.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Well, a sliding door is one thing. If it's one
of those pocket doors, at least it's a door. Now,
why do we have doors in the bathrooms in the
first place.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Well, what do you use the bathroom for?
Speaker 3 (12:36):
No, that's my point is you.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Don't want to pee in you know, in front of
your wife.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
It's the indignities and the things that our bodies do
that are gross that we hide from each other.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
And that's why ities.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
You make it sound like it's wartime in there.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Well, you know, like I said, there's a lot of coliflower.
That it's designed to be a visual blockade, yes, and
perhaps an auditory blockade private time. Yeah, but it's not
just you're just sitting in there reading a book, although
some people do in their like.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
You're taking a shower, you're going to the bath You
need a door for crying out loud. Like there's something
artsy or romantic about not having a door on a bathroom,
they call it.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Some of these places say that the bathroom designs now
are part of a unique concept that provides open and
modern experiences.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
No, it's cheap, Well there's that.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Vice president, editor in chief of Hotels Magazine says, the
bathroom is supposed to be a sanctuary. It's the one
place in a hotel where you want to feel like
you're private and alone. But that a lot of times
bathrooms feel like veritable peep shows. There's another place that
actually has frosted glass window in the shower.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
So that was the place that we were over the weekend, right,
and the glass faces the rest of the room. So
you take a shower and everybody's watching. I mean it's
it's opaque. It's not like they can see what's going on.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
But if you have.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
That light on behind you and then no light in
the bedroom part of the room, then it's at least
a silhouette.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Did you do hand puppets for your wife?
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Kind of, you asked me.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
I want it.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Designers are hemmed in by the size and the budget,
the both of which could be pretty skimpy when it
comes to a massive hotel. Substituting the traditional doors with
the unconventional alternatives can save money and space, even if
it is just an illusion. They said the glass panels
can draw light into a windowless or dark setting.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
That I think it's a shower curtain.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
I mean it's gross too, but whatever. I'd rather have
a curtain than a half door. I think.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
The other thing is they say they take into account
what it takes to clean.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
I was thinking of bathroom.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
Yeah, and the less surface of fewer surfaces, I guess,
or less surface area on some of these things.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
It's going to be easier for them to clean.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
With fewer materials that go into making a distinctly separate room,
it's a lower cost to build out a senior hotels
reporter says, But they have to find this balance between
pushing the design envelope of everything is open to giving
people the privacy to tackle bodily.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
A door on the bathroom, I think is something you
should not skimp on for just a good general rule.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
At the Fourth Hotel in Atlanta f or THH, this
company put up a reeded glass pocket door between the
bedroom and the bathroom that has quote an element of
surprise and delight.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
No, I don't want that surprise. I don't want that delight.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
The sliding doors is another thing, because the sliding doors
they don't always close all the way.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Yeah that so a pocket door like that, Yeah, it
may have a latch in it, but it doesn't have
something carved out on the other side of the door
jam for it to kind of slide into and hide
any sort.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Of delights and surprises.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Surprises and delights, Yeah, don't do that in front of
your spouse.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
That's really one of the secrets of a great marriage.
Why separate bathrooms? I know people I have great friends
that they don't care. They're just they're hanging out and
doing all that stuff. That's cool. It's for them that's
a different journey than I want to embark on.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
I just don't get it.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
My husband's very clean, very very clean. If a clean
person keeps his areas clean all the things, well, no,
I didn't do, but yes, anyway, I still wouldn't want
to share a bathroom.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Oh, you don't even share a bathroom. No, we share
a bathroom. I mean, I go that far. But it's
not like we're in there together. Right, I'll say that, Oh,
you you.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Have friends that have bathroom time together.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Well, I mean that one is brushing their teeth while
the other one is really getting rid of green air
and cauliflower.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Brushing your teeth at the same time.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
Yeah. Wow, Again, I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Which friends are these? I say this all the time.
I think the downfall my brother's marriage really was that
his ex wife. And she's wonderful. She's the mother of
his children, and she's a wonderful person, and I adore her.
To this day. But she would walk into the bathroom
when he was getting ready to the cauliflower mac and
(17:52):
cheese and just talk to him like, just you know,
this is what I've got going on today. Blah blah
blah blah. Yeah, and it's like cool. She had brothers
and sisters growing up. She had a brother.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
That's part of it, I would assume, But I don't
think my sisters would ever do that.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Who just was arrested for a felony?
Speaker 3 (18:13):
Actually, oh, that's a good story.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Let's get more than that's a horrible story.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Don't do drugs kids, Well, it doesn't always come back
to don't do drugs.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
It does in that story. Okay, that's the takeaway.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
All right.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Vice President Harris campaigning in Michigan today. Former President Obama
is going to be campaigning for her in Philly alongside
Bruce Springsteen. Former President Trump is holding a rally in Atlanta.
His running mate Jade Vance will be in Wisconsin, and then,
I mean, this is going to be a busy week
for every single one of them. Trump has rallies planned
in Allentown, Pennsylvania, Green Bay, Milwaukee, Henderson, Nevada. Vice President
(18:54):
has rallies in Vegas, and then what she argues is
her closing argument speech from from I believe it's her
place in Washington, so the Naval Observatory, but I'm not
sure if they want to have a presidential looking building
behind her when she does that, as opposed to just
the old rally with a bunch of people behind her.
(19:14):
But new poll shows from ABC News that Vice President
Harris has regained a very slight lead two percentage points
between Harris and Trump among all registered voters right now,
it's forty nine percent to forty seven percent.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
It just depends on what you're reading, and it's all
within the margin of air.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
Turnout. It's all turnout. It's excitement.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
And that's why one of the complaints about what we've
seen for the last several days and the way that
these rallies and events are being planned, is you're not
convincing anybody of anything. You're going to say over and
over again that Donald Trump's a bad guy, asked and answered,
like everybody knows that you're not saying anything new. He's
going to get up and say the country is broken.
(19:58):
We're letting in too many grints, the economies and shambles
it's the same. You're not making new arguments, it's just
can you do enough to get the very last vestiges
of what would otherwise be lazy voters to get out
and actually cast about.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Astronauts aboard the International Space Station have been told to
prepare for an urgent evacuation. They're tracking fifty areas of
concern related to a growing leak aboard the station. What
is leaking.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Air air out of the station?
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Right? I wonder how that affects them.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
The whole not breathing thing.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Well, I mean, at what level does it start to
affect them in terms of oxygen they.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Would have They would have personal oxygen at some level.
I mean, I don't know how long it would last,
and I don't know how much they have of it.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
They say the threat is the the threat rating is
five out of five. That sounds pretty urgent, dire.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
The astronauts have been warned that they should stay in
the American section. There's different sides, the American section versus
the Russian service module. They want them to stay in
the American section when the module is open, so that
they can close the hatch in the event of an
emergency evacuation. This has been going on for some time
last five years or so, and the exact source of
(21:29):
the leak is still unknown. The other potential cracks that
they have found none of that sounds good. The potential
cracks that they have been found have been covered with
celant and with patches. But right now the leak reaches
its fastest rate. April of this year, they noticed that
it had peaked and it's still leaking. It's not the
(21:51):
only cause for concern. The ISS is at risk of
being pelted with micro meteors and space debris. The air
leak was located in the ziv Zevezda Service Module Transfer Tunnel,
which was installed about twenty years ago and used to
house the life support equipment and to access one of
(22:11):
the Russian cargo docks. It was noted that the module
began to leak a small amount of air through an
unidentified crack, but despite efforts to seal it, the amount
of air escaping the station has only increased over the
last five years.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
In July, NASA paid Elon Musk's SpaceX about two hundred
and sixty six grand to prepare a contingency plan to
evacuate American astronauts and so now, whenever the hatch is
opened for essential use, NASA astronauts have been told to
wear their escape vehicles in case of emergency.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Man uh, if I'm not mistaken, an escape vehicle is
individual escape vehicles for each one of them. I'd be
curious to see what that looks like.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
I don't think it's good. I don't think that's a
good eventuality.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
Is there room for you to load your pants?
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Because that's what's going to happen if you have to
evacuate the International Space Day.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Some people have the opposite reaction. Was that mean they
don't unload their pants? They're nervous, they can't.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
The space station, by the way, is coming down in
twenty thirty one. They said they're going to bring this
thing down into a Point Nemo, which is a place
in the Pacific Ocean that's supposed to be the farthest
from land.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
I was gonna say, where are they setting this beast?
Speaker 2 (23:26):
All, well, they're going to burn it up, but they
want whatever piece is to fall in the ocean so
it doesn't hit anybody. And there's another SpaceX involvement here.
SpaceX is actually going to build a vehicle that will
push this thing down. Basically that will deorbit it on
purpose so that they can steer it into that point
nemo area so it doesn't hurt anybody, which is good news.
Speaker 5 (23:49):
Gary and Shannon, you guys are rule.
Speaker 4 (23:51):
But thanks for the handpuppet visual. Gary. It will not
go away.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Thanks Gary, thanks a lot.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
I have a great k I want you thinking of
it for the last I love y'all. It wasn't you
were the one who said it. You said hand popper.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
I like pictured you doing like like this.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
Nobody can see what you're doing.
Speaker 6 (24:14):
They should just put a pocket door in not open.
You can't see it. It slid into the wall. It's
an open space. But when you need that privacy, which
we all want, it kind of ruins the romance. That's
why you need a door.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
This is me using my hands as an alligator.
Speaker 7 (24:37):
A true test of love is when you can sit
there and go mmmm in front of your significant others,
not love and not only laugh, but love all the
same time.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
No, sir, that's creepy. That was creepy, laugh and low
at the same time.
Speaker 5 (25:04):
Hey, guys, good morning. I love your show. Hey about
this whole bathroom thing. You know, the older you get,
the more entertaining. It becomes no in all ways, if
you know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (25:18):
What okay? By?
Speaker 3 (25:19):
What are you happening to?
Speaker 1 (25:21):
People are conflating bathroom time with sex? Is that what
we're doing?
Speaker 3 (25:27):
I don't know what they're doing. I don't know why
they do.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
You hear someone passing gas and think to yourself, think
to yourself, does if that's a thing I don't want
to know about it.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Let's keep that one on the back pages.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
Is that a trend?
Speaker 3 (25:45):
A trend?
Speaker 4 (25:46):
Like?
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Is it the young people are doing this?
Speaker 4 (25:51):
No?
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Jacob, He's like, I don't want my fingerprints on this
crime scene?
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Gross?
Speaker 1 (26:01):
All right, we'll talk swamp watch. How about that?
Speaker 3 (26:03):
Oh, that'll clean it up. You've been listening to The
Gary and Shannon Show.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
You can always hear us live on KFI AM six
forty nine am to one pm every Monday through Friday,

This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to kf
I A M six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
What are you doing on the Friday, November eighth?
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Oh, I'm so glad? Can we get some music for
this announcement? Music or just yeah, role no, I need music.
I'm feeling a loto.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
They where a body, body were.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
The spiritual vibe less, less formal. I still feel a
little sacrilegious with this one. Today The Trumpets of Jesus
(00:46):
is letting everybody know far and wide we will be
out Luchitor Breweryday.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
November eight is our next news and Bruse at lucid
Or Brewing in Chino Hills, out there doing the show
nine to one and also promoting a very cool event
that they're doing called Hops in the Hills that weekend.
It's gonna help benefit the Chino Valley Fire Foundation. So
not only are we going to be out there swag prices,
(01:15):
tickets to the roof est, bunch of stuff like that,
the Hops in the Hills event is going to happen
that next day, so we'll get everything warmed up, get
the blood pumping.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Maybe get the blood pumping. It's always pumping at Luchador.
It's a great party time.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
So Friday, November eight.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Oh and, somebody reminded me that that Monday is Veterans Day,
so you can make a four day weekend out of
it if you wanted to.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
I don't know why you would.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Say, Gary and Shannon. Yeah, I was laughing about your
inability to sleep in. I've had that problem for years.
The worst place to not be able to sleep in
is on a cruise ship, because nobody except the staff
gets up before eight or nine am.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
On a cruise that's the best time.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
The last cruise we took, I was helping them set
up the buffet because not one other person was up
on the boat to even talk to. So that's that's
kind of a problem. Have a good day.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
I also find it a problem that a passenger is
able to set up a buffet. I mean, who knows
what he's been doing with those hands? You know, nobody knows.
I like a cruise ship in the morning because nobody's
up yet, you have.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
The whole ship to yourself. I don't know if I've
ever still.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Not a winner for me, No, I don't know if
I'll ever go back do many people, a lot of people,
a lot of people. Gavin Newsom has talked over the
weekend about doubling, more than doubling the annual amount of
money allocated to California's film and TV tax credits. Obviously,
Hollywood has been losing business for years because other cities
(02:48):
are offering great incentives.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
And we got to play the game. I mean, we
have to absolutely play this game. States like Atlanta, I'm sorry,
States like Georgia where Atlanta is a city, States like
North Carolina, Canadian provinces like British Columbia, they all do
these massive, massive tax incentives for otherwise Hollywood productions to
(03:12):
go and film and do TV and movies.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
There maybe a little counterproductive for Gavin Newsome if we're
playing the long game, don't you want more Liberals in
Georgia and North Carolina for when you run for presidents?
Speaker 3 (03:26):
That's an interesting way to put in.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
But he's got to be able to show that he
has a track record for business expansion in California, considering
it's been so bleak here for small business owners. Productions
have been filming in other states because of those high
tax incentives and According to this plan that he talked
about yesterday, he would expand the annual tax credit to
seven hundred and fifty million dollars, up from the current
(03:51):
total of three thirty so more than double it. It
would make California the top state for capped film incentive
pro and that would surpass even New York. If this
makes its way through the legislature, it could be in
place as early as July of next year.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
It would run for about five years. They said.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
The competitive disadvantage right now for California is so pronounced.
About seventy one percent of the projects that were rejected
by California's film and TV text credit program then turned
around and went somewhere out of state and did their
production elsewhere. And he said, we have to do everything
we can to strengthen and protect one of our foundational
(04:35):
pillars in Los Angeles.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
We'll see, we'll see where it goes.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
A study of the program found that for every tax dollar,
every sorry, every tax credit dollar that's approved, it generates
at least twenty four dollars and forty cents in output.
That's a pretty strong investment if you look at a
smart use of tax money in the state.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Of California election see definitely having an impact when it
comes to mental health. A national survey conducted by a
private mental health treatment system, So keep that in mind.
Examine the amount of anxiety brought on by an election season.
In two thousand Americans, about one in five adults reported
election content negatively affected their plans. It negatively affected their
(05:24):
mental health and altered their plans. Millennials and gen z
have reported delaying plans for college, moving, getting married, or
having kids because of political anxiety.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
I want to hit them on the side of the head.
Maybe that's what gives them anxiety. That's and everybody's just
okay with that. We're okay with letting kids feel like
that's enough to prevent them from moving.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
It's it's also a nice excuse to postpone massive milestones
that may be the cause of your real anxiety.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Right boy.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Along those lines, these people are concerned about the upcoming election.
Ap NORC Center for Public Affairs Research talks about the
consistent concerns. About four in ten registered voters say they
are extremely or very worried about violent attempts to overturn
the election results, whatever they may be.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
After next Tuesday, guys, our nightmare is over. Quarter pounders
will be back on the menu at McDonald's this week.
That's all the contaminated products have been removed from the
supply chain. KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell all removed onions
(06:48):
from their menus out of an abundance of caution.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
At the end of the story, Yeah, sure, yeah, that's
good because I was worried about I know you were.
I stopped at a Farmer Boys yesterday. Oh, first time
in my life, I've never been to a Farmer Boys.
What is the fair there?
Speaker 3 (07:09):
Burgers and stuff. We've had breakfast. We had a little
breakfast sandwich on the way driving home from Marongo. It
was great.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
It was great bacon, A fresh squeeze orange juice. Oh,
I love orangeeng I mean it was really good.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
That tasted.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
I love a jarish sugar, fresh squeeze sugar God's sugar though, yes,
not refined God's sugar.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Well, the real nutrients is in the pulp of the orange. Right.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
I didn't get any fiber. Well, there's probably some, but
I didn't get a lot.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
There's a man in Orange County claims to be the
winner of a forty four million dollar powerball jackpot. But
it's been nine weeks he has not seen a penny.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
He says that he's the winner. Jerry likes playing the
lottery pretty often. He does it all Fantasy five, Powerball, Superlatto, Mega,
I play all the games.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
It was like the casino.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
You didn't play any slot machines. I did? You did?
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Yeah? Are you kidding?
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (08:09):
I played? I played a Chinese slot machine name. I
don't remember something dragon. I played video poker. I played
express x poker. I played triple play triple triple bonus,
play double double bonus, play spin x poker. I played pigau,
I played blackjack. I played roulette.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
So how much your sister did not know anything was
going on in that video poker machine that she was playing.
You need to sit her down and tell her what's happening.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I can't get involved with teaching people how to gamble.
Either you have it or you don't.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Ahead of the powerball drawing in August, Jerry walked into
his neighborhood rouse to buy a lottery ticket. All of
his favorite numbers, all five numbers, including the number ten
he chose as the power ball.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
They were all drawn.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
He says he is still waiting for the payout. He
says it was exciting because you don't ever anticipate hitting
all six numbers on the power ball. You walk out
get hit by lightning before you win that one. Now,
he said, the process is horrible for the winner of
a big Latto prize. They won't tell you this, but
(09:19):
by this date you'll get the funds. They don't tell
you that. They leave it open ended, so you're sitting
and waiting daily hoping that you're going to.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Get the funds.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Carolyn Becker is with the California State Lottery. She said
the fastest a winner might get paid is four weeks,
but that doesn't happen very often, they said. Any person
claiming to have a winning ticket asked to go through
a lengthy vetting process includes an investigation by their law
enforcement team, cross checking the alleged winner doesn't owe the
state any money in taxes or child support as well.
(09:50):
Lottery officials say the goals have each case done in
six to eight weeks, but it could take longer. Where
does the interest go on that sitting there in the
lottery's account forty four for several weeks? Nine weeks that's
a good chunk of change. Sounds kind of shady to me,
doesn't it?
Speaker 3 (10:07):
What the state doing something shady? How dare you?
Speaker 2 (10:13):
He does suggest that as we're nine weeks now, right,
nine weeks later, that's outside of the usual six to
eight weeks that the lot So there must be something
the farious going on, or it's just taking a little
bit longer for them to get the Hmmm. I don't
know why that is such a big deal other than yes,
(10:35):
the state is the state's making money off of their
own The scheme, the careful investigation that they do sounds
like a Ponzi scheme, a pyramid scheme.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Keeps the keeps the lights on. Perhaps it's the lottery off.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Dairy farmer speaking of here in California are dealing with
this steadily advancing outbreak of bird flu in dairy cows,
who's been reported more than one hundred and seventy herds
here in California since late August. The state now accounts
for nearly half of all of the US cases that
are detected in dairy cows since this outbreak began several
(11:12):
months ago.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
The state.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Obviously, California produces more milk than any other state in
the nation, and the outbreak has not yet led to
milk shortages, but there is a concern that that could
change if the bird flu continues to spread amongst the cows.
There was a comedian, Fahim Anwar, showering at a hotel
in Austin and hated the fact that the water was
(11:38):
flowing everywhere in the hotel room shallow pool formed a
water He realized that he was going to have to
work this into his act, and he complained about the
fact that there was a half door the on the shower.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
It's true. I even remember going to a place and
there was no door in the bathroom for the own
entire bathroom, which is very sad.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I feel like that was in Chicago. Possibly there was
a hotel room recently that I stayed in that didn't
have a door.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Yeah, hotels have been removing doors on the bathroom in
their place. Designers are installing curtains, frosted or fogged glass,
saloon or sliding doors, or sometimes just nothing.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Well, a sliding door is one thing. If it's one
of those pocket doors, at least it's a door. Now,
why do we have doors in the bathrooms in the
first place.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Well, what do you use the bathroom for?
Speaker 3 (12:36):
No, that's my point is you.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Don't want to pee in you know, in front of
your wife.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
It's the indignities and the things that our bodies do
that are gross that we hide from each other.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
And that's why ities.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
You make it sound like it's wartime in there.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Well, you know, like I said, there's a lot of coliflower.
That it's designed to be a visual blockade, yes, and
perhaps an auditory blockade private time. Yeah, but it's not
just you're just sitting in there reading a book, although
some people do in their like.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
You're taking a shower, you're going to the bath You
need a door for crying out loud. Like there's something
artsy or romantic about not having a door on a bathroom,
they call it.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Some of these places say that the bathroom designs now
are part of a unique concept that provides open and
modern experiences.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
No, it's cheap, Well there's that.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Vice president, editor in chief of Hotels Magazine says, the
bathroom is supposed to be a sanctuary. It's the one
place in a hotel where you want to feel like
you're private and alone. But that a lot of times
bathrooms feel like veritable peep shows. There's another place that
actually has frosted glass window in the shower.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
So that was the place that we were over the weekend, right,
and the glass faces the rest of the room. So
you take a shower and everybody's watching. I mean it's
it's opaque. It's not like they can see what's going on.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
But if you have.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
That light on behind you and then no light in
the bedroom part of the room, then it's at least
a silhouette.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Did you do hand puppets for your wife?
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Kind of, you asked me.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
I want it.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Designers are hemmed in by the size and the budget,
the both of which could be pretty skimpy when it
comes to a massive hotel. Substituting the traditional doors with
the unconventional alternatives can save money and space, even if
it is just an illusion. They said the glass panels
can draw light into a windowless or dark setting.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
That I think it's a shower curtain.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
I mean it's gross too, but whatever. I'd rather have
a curtain than a half door. I think.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
The other thing is they say they take into account
what it takes to clean.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
I was thinking of bathroom.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
Yeah, and the less surface of fewer surfaces, I guess,
or less surface area on some of these things.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
It's going to be easier for them to clean.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
With fewer materials that go into making a distinctly separate room,
it's a lower cost to build out a senior hotels
reporter says, But they have to find this balance between
pushing the design envelope of everything is open to giving
people the privacy to tackle bodily.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
A door on the bathroom, I think is something you
should not skimp on for just a good general rule.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
At the Fourth Hotel in Atlanta f or THH, this
company put up a reeded glass pocket door between the
bedroom and the bathroom that has quote an element of
surprise and delight.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
No, I don't want that surprise. I don't want that delight.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
The sliding doors is another thing, because the sliding doors
they don't always close all the way.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Yeah that so a pocket door like that, Yeah, it
may have a latch in it, but it doesn't have
something carved out on the other side of the door
jam for it to kind of slide into and hide
any sort.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Of delights and surprises.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Surprises and delights, Yeah, don't do that in front of
your spouse.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
That's really one of the secrets of a great marriage.
Why separate bathrooms? I know people I have great friends
that they don't care. They're just they're hanging out and
doing all that stuff. That's cool. It's for them that's
a different journey than I want to embark on.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
I just don't get it.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
My husband's very clean, very very clean. If a clean
person keeps his areas clean all the things, well, no,
I didn't do, but yes, anyway, I still wouldn't want
to share a bathroom.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Oh, you don't even share a bathroom. No, we share
a bathroom. I mean, I go that far. But it's
not like we're in there together. Right, I'll say that, Oh,
you you.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Have friends that have bathroom time together.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Well, I mean that one is brushing their teeth while
the other one is really getting rid of green air
and cauliflower.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Brushing your teeth at the same time.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
Yeah. Wow, Again, I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Which friends are these? I say this all the time.
I think the downfall my brother's marriage really was that
his ex wife. And she's wonderful. She's the mother of
his children, and she's a wonderful person, and I adore her.
To this day. But she would walk into the bathroom
when he was getting ready to the cauliflower mac and
(17:52):
cheese and just talk to him like, just you know,
this is what I've got going on today. Blah blah
blah blah. Yeah, and it's like cool. She had brothers
and sisters growing up. She had a brother.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
That's part of it, I would assume, But I don't
think my sisters would ever do that.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Who just was arrested for a felony?
Speaker 3 (18:13):
Actually, oh, that's a good story.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Let's get more than that's a horrible story.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Don't do drugs kids, Well, it doesn't always come back
to don't do drugs.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
It does in that story. Okay, that's the takeaway.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
All right.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Vice President Harris campaigning in Michigan today. Former President Obama
is going to be campaigning for her in Philly alongside
Bruce Springsteen. Former President Trump is holding a rally in Atlanta.
His running mate Jade Vance will be in Wisconsin, and then,
I mean, this is going to be a busy week
for every single one of them. Trump has rallies planned
in Allentown, Pennsylvania, Green Bay, Milwaukee, Henderson, Nevada. Vice President
(18:54):
has rallies in Vegas, and then what she argues is
her closing argument speech from from I believe it's her
place in Washington, so the Naval Observatory, but I'm not
sure if they want to have a presidential looking building
behind her when she does that, as opposed to just
the old rally with a bunch of people behind her.
(19:14):
But new poll shows from ABC News that Vice President
Harris has regained a very slight lead two percentage points
between Harris and Trump among all registered voters right now,
it's forty nine percent to forty seven percent.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
It just depends on what you're reading, and it's all
within the margin of air.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
Turnout. It's all turnout. It's excitement.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
And that's why one of the complaints about what we've
seen for the last several days and the way that
these rallies and events are being planned, is you're not
convincing anybody of anything. You're going to say over and
over again that Donald Trump's a bad guy, asked and answered,
like everybody knows that you're not saying anything new. He's
going to get up and say the country is broken.
(19:58):
We're letting in too many grints, the economies and shambles
it's the same. You're not making new arguments, it's just
can you do enough to get the very last vestiges
of what would otherwise be lazy voters to get out
and actually cast about.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Astronauts aboard the International Space Station have been told to
prepare for an urgent evacuation. They're tracking fifty areas of
concern related to a growing leak aboard the station. What
is leaking.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Air air out of the station?
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Right? I wonder how that affects them.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
The whole not breathing thing.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Well, I mean, at what level does it start to
affect them in terms of oxygen they.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Would have They would have personal oxygen at some level.
I mean, I don't know how long it would last,
and I don't know how much they have of it.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
They say the threat is the the threat rating is
five out of five. That sounds pretty urgent, dire.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
The astronauts have been warned that they should stay in
the American section. There's different sides, the American section versus
the Russian service module. They want them to stay in
the American section when the module is open, so that
they can close the hatch in the event of an
emergency evacuation. This has been going on for some time
last five years or so, and the exact source of
(21:29):
the leak is still unknown. The other potential cracks that
they have found none of that sounds good. The potential
cracks that they have been found have been covered with
celant and with patches. But right now the leak reaches
its fastest rate. April of this year, they noticed that
it had peaked and it's still leaking. It's not the
(21:51):
only cause for concern. The ISS is at risk of
being pelted with micro meteors and space debris. The air
leak was located in the ziv Zevezda Service Module Transfer Tunnel,
which was installed about twenty years ago and used to
house the life support equipment and to access one of
(22:11):
the Russian cargo docks. It was noted that the module
began to leak a small amount of air through an
unidentified crack, but despite efforts to seal it, the amount
of air escaping the station has only increased over the
last five years.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
In July, NASA paid Elon Musk's SpaceX about two hundred
and sixty six grand to prepare a contingency plan to
evacuate American astronauts and so now, whenever the hatch is
opened for essential use, NASA astronauts have been told to
wear their escape vehicles in case of emergency.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Man uh, if I'm not mistaken, an escape vehicle is
individual escape vehicles for each one of them. I'd be
curious to see what that looks like.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
I don't think it's good. I don't think that's a
good eventuality.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
Is there room for you to load your pants?
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Because that's what's going to happen if you have to
evacuate the International Space Day.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Some people have the opposite reaction. Was that mean they
don't unload their pants? They're nervous, they can't.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
The space station, by the way, is coming down in
twenty thirty one. They said they're going to bring this
thing down into a Point Nemo, which is a place
in the Pacific Ocean that's supposed to be the farthest
from land.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
I was gonna say, where are they setting this beast?
Speaker 2 (23:26):
All, well, they're going to burn it up, but they
want whatever piece is to fall in the ocean so
it doesn't hit anybody. And there's another SpaceX involvement here.
SpaceX is actually going to build a vehicle that will
push this thing down. Basically that will deorbit it on
purpose so that they can steer it into that point
nemo area so it doesn't hurt anybody, which is good news.
Speaker 5 (23:49):
Gary and Shannon, you guys are rule.
Speaker 4 (23:51):
But thanks for the handpuppet visual. Gary. It will not
go away.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Thanks Gary, thanks a lot.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
I have a great k I want you thinking of
it for the last I love y'all. It wasn't you
were the one who said it. You said hand popper.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
I like pictured you doing like like this.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
Nobody can see what you're doing.
Speaker 6 (24:14):
They should just put a pocket door in not open.
You can't see it. It slid into the wall. It's
an open space. But when you need that privacy, which
we all want, it kind of ruins the romance. That's
why you need a door.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
This is me using my hands as an alligator.
Speaker 7 (24:37):
A true test of love is when you can sit
there and go mmmm in front of your significant others,
not love and not only laugh, but love all the
same time.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
No, sir, that's creepy. That was creepy, laugh and low
at the same time.
Speaker 5 (25:04):
Hey, guys, good morning. I love your show. Hey about
this whole bathroom thing. You know, the older you get,
the more entertaining. It becomes no in all ways, if
you know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (25:18):
What okay? By?
Speaker 3 (25:19):
