Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to kf
I AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Your Thing with Diane Keaton.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Man, it like flooded my my dms over the weekend.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
DM.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Everyone had to say, this is for Gary, this is
for Gary, This is for Gary, This is for Gary.
With announcement after announcement after announcement of Diane Keaton's death.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Why would I why would it?
Speaker 4 (00:32):
Okay? Listen?
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Yeah, yeah, for a long time. I hated you for
a long time. All weekend I thought, damn it.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
I was like, here we go again, here's another Diane
Keaton death notification.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
I didn't want to see her pass. That's not that's awful.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
People said she looked very thin, but she had talked
about struggles with bolimia.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Oh so that can take its toll on us.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
And I read a.
Speaker 5 (00:54):
Whole lot of I read more Diane Keaton situation this
weekend than any other time in my life.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Oh, because I was bad?
Speaker 6 (01:02):
Huh?
Speaker 5 (01:02):
Did you feel bad? No, a little bit. I wanted
to know what happened. I mean it was it was
one of those things. She's not somebody that I've seen
very often. I don't obviously, I wouldn't seek out interviews
with her, like for previews for her latest book club
movie or whatever. But I didn't hear that she had
(01:23):
been sick. And I mean I was not alone in that.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
She always and she always has appeared to be the
strong woman.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Like she's strong.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
I mean, she's not sturdy, but she's always seemed to
be like that woman who's got it together, scut her
own voice, and she's strong, and she's gonna wear her
hats and her scars, you'd be.
Speaker 5 (01:42):
Damned, regardless of what dummies like me say exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
And she always played that. You know, she didn't always
play that role. You know, I'm thinking of like First
Wives Club, where she plays a pushover. She said, by
the way, I read over the weekend that her favorite
movie that she ever did was the one with Jack Nicholson.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
And something's got to give a great movie.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Where he is dating her daughter a spoiler alert from
two thousand and two something like that. He's dating her daughter.
It's one of those you know, winter spring romance. Yeah,
and and and the daughter brings him home and he
meets Diane Keaton and you know, the two are contemporary,
(02:24):
is the same age, and exactly what you think is
going to play out plays out, and it really is
a great movie.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
You were mentioning the belief was that the right one.
Somebody's got to give hers a different I think you're right.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
You may have something wrong about that, because there was
another one where he plays that neurotic guy with all
those issues.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
That's with Helen Hunt. That's with Helen Hunt. Okay, you
make me want to be a better man. Yeah, man,
Jack Nicholson, what a career.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
You mentioned the Bolivia, though she did an interview a
while ago where she referenced that time when she was
boliemic or was dealing with bolimia. However she wanted to
describe it and that she was in taking twenty thousand
calories a day and estimated twenty thousand calories, and the
way she would describe what she would eat for dinner,
I mean a couple of pizzas and a full bowl
(03:14):
of ramen, and like a couple of desserts possible. I
don't know, but that's the Bolimia party. When was that
in her life? It wasn't that long ago from what
I remember, or maybe the interview, wasn't that long ago
that she's probably.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Been so thin for as long as I can remember
to be.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
I mean, even if you were a beliemic twenty thousand,
how do you even put that away?
Speaker 5 (03:36):
I don't know, knew one guy in college that would
eat like that because he was a marathon runner.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
I mean, I've seen you eat like that in one meal,
but I'm imagined the results of it. But you have
that for one meal, and I do see the results.
But if you had like that one meal eight times
a day, I'd be worried.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
It's time for swamp watch.
Speaker 7 (03:58):
I'm a politician, which means I'm che and when I'm
not kissing babies, I'm stealing that lollipop. Here we got
the real problem is that our leaders are dumb.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
The other side never quit, so what I'm not going anywhere?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
So now you play the squaw, I can imagine what
can be and be unburdened by what has been.
Speaker 8 (04:18):
You know, Americans have always been gone president, but they're
not stupid.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
A political plunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Why have the people voted for you? With not swamp watch?
I actually don't see you eat much anymore? Is that
why you just gone round eating I'm going to eat
a pop tart.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
I'm honest, I'm gonna eat that whole. You should eat that,
both of them. I gots delicious. So I don't know
anybody who's not giving credit to President Trump for this
Gaza Hamas Peace deal. Now sorry, Israel Hamas Pie steel.
Speaker 7 (04:50):
Now at lasts, not only for Israelis, but also for
Palestidians and for many others. The long and painful night
is finally over, and as the dust settles, the smoke fades,
the debris is removed, and the ashes cleaned from the air.
(05:11):
The day that breaks on a region transformed, and a
beautiful and much brighter future appears suddenly within your reach.
This is now a very exciting time for Israel and
for the entire Middle East, because all across the Middle East,
the forces of chaos, terra and ruin that have plagued
(05:34):
the region for decades now stand weakened, isolated, and totally defeated.
Speaker 5 (05:40):
I was President Trump speaking to the Israeli Kannessed earlier.
He went on to Egypt to Charmel Shak, where he
signed the actual deal with several world leaders who showed
up and then barded Air Force one. He is expected
to be back on his way towards Washington, DC.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
You are much more. You are well versed, not much more.
I am not versed at all. You are well versed
when it comes to Israeli politics. What does this mean
for Netanyahu in his current approval ratings that seem to
be tenuous.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
I appreciate the compliment, but I have no flipping idea. Oh.
Speaker 5 (06:17):
I mean, he's a guy who obviously two years ago
everybody wanted him to respond to the terrorist attack of
October seventh, and he did, but he never let his
foot off the gas. And that's when Israel, in the
last couple of months had become sort of this pariah
(06:37):
state where longtime allies had thought that Benjamin Netnahu and
his war cabinet were way too over the top in
doing what they did to the people that lived in Gaza.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
A warmonger is how I've heard him described.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
And now is it Trump's relationship with him where he
listens to Trump, Trump's able to say, hey, take your
foot off the gas? Is that what happened here? They've
had a relationship for quite some time, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
But I don't think.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
I don't think he listened to Trump, or I should say,
I'm not sure that that was the message from Trump.
I think the message might have been something more akin
to starting to not look good, like, when are we
gonna wrap this thing up? Because this is taken forever
and you're killing a lot of people, and yeah, you
don't want to, but a lot of civilians are dying
kind of thing. I don't know if Trump ever asked
(07:28):
him to pull back in any way. But the one
thing that did happen that was given a lot of credit,
or at least a lot of commentators this morning we're
saying should be given credit was Operation Midnight Hammer, when
we flew and blew up a lot of Iranian nuclear capability,
not all of it, but a lot of it. That
(07:50):
that put everybody in that region on notice. Iran is
not going to help you out. They do not have
the major backstop policy of a nuclear threat to back
up whatever plans you have in the future. So a
lot of people gave that military operation sort of the
credit for being the genesis of this peace deal.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
All right, Gary and Shannon will continue coming up next.
We've got your shun at one thousand dollars. Also, AI
videos of dead celebrities are horrifying their families, and Washington
Post columnist uses AI to resurrect her grandmother and it
doesn't go well.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
We got both of those for you on tap. Garian
Shannon will continue.
Speaker 6 (08:32):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
You heard net and Yahoo talk about Trump and how
wonderful he is from the podium, and then apparently the
favor was returned and it triggered controversy. President Trump triggering
that controversy in Israel.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
They said it was a.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Jaw dropping moment when Trump, during his address in Jerusalem,
turned to Israel's president to advocate. He pardoned Prime Minister
NETANYAHUO on the long standing fraud and bribery charges. Trump said,
flashing a smile, come on, give him a pardon, called
(09:18):
him one of the greatest wartime leaders. It drew apparently
an ecstatic burst of applause from the Prime Minister's lawmakers
and other supporters who were chanting his nickname. Anyway, of course,
so it's Trump wading into Israel's internal affairs.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Well, it's not like there's a place that's off limits
for him.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
No, no, but more traditional Israelis were shocked by this.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
Yeah, come on, come on, we have a chance for
you to win a thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Here's how you can pick it up.

Speaker 5 (10:23):
Again, the keyword is deposit that goes on the website
an hour from now. We have a shot for you
to win another thousand dollars. If you have not yet
seen the new AI video maker, it's called Sora two
s O R A and it is making these incredibly
realistic AI generated videos that you tell it what to
(10:47):
make basically, and it comes out with these these clips.
Still a few things that make it obviously fake. Some
of them are hard to pinpoint, others are very very clear.
But there's a movement out there of people who think
it's funny or interesting or whatever to have dead celebrities,
(11:13):
whether it's actual, you know, Hollywood celebrity or somebody from
politics or pop culture, whatever it is, and using the
celebrity images to do things that those celebrities would never do,
or put them in situations that obviously they would never
have been in because they passed away.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Like Malcolm X making crude jokes, wrestling with Martin Luther
King Junior talking about defecating on himself.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
His daughter does not want to see these.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Sora has produced videos of Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, Amy
Winehouse at have flooded social media, and some viewers, as
you know, as you can imagine, I don't know if
this is real or if this is fake, certainly not
if they didn't live in the time these people lived
in and knew who they were. Some clips are for laughs,
like a video of mister Rogers, neighborhood host Fred Rogers
writing a rap song with Tupac, but some have been
(12:11):
darker when video shows body camera footage of Whitney Houston
looking drunk or high.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
What about the uh Kobe Bryant in a helicopter.
Speaker 5 (12:26):
Or JFK making a joke about the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Robin Williams's daughter has pleaded on an Instagram post for
people to stop sending me AI videos of Dad. She says,
to watch the legacies of real people be condensed down
to TikTok slop puppeteering of them is maddening.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
Amen, that's a pretty poignant way to put it, right.
Henry Ader is an AI expert studies deep fakes, and
he has coined the term synthetic resurrection to describe creating
digital copies of the dead. And then I mean that
term that she used, the puppetry with deceased individuals, says Henry.
(13:11):
This opens up a huge question about ownership of likeness
and really fundamentally changes the social contract around what it
means to be you online. And he said that this
vision is becoming a more common reality. The prospect of
digitally cloning the dead is already sparking questions about an
(13:32):
ability a family member's ability to control their deceased loved
ones images online.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Open Ai has described its video tool as a wellspring
of creativity.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
One executive said that they've been permissive with video creation
to avoid a competitive disadvantage from lasi fair rivals.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
So we'll make ours the best.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
If you want to depict dead Robin Williams, we'll do
it better than the other ones that are popping up
so that we can keep ownership.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Of this tool.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
What is it the creativity versus distaste argument we're going
to have?
Speaker 2 (14:17):
When are you being creative? And when do you veer
into what not criminal?
Speaker 5 (14:25):
Maybe not criminal, but just a well, I don't even
know the right word, a civil a civil disparagement of
somebody that, yeah, you know, because slander, slander, sure, deformation.
But if you're just having as used Robin Williams as
an example, if you're just having Robin Williams read the
(14:49):
prologue to the Canterbury Tales, which I don't know if
he ever did in real life. But if he did
and then you showed that in say your high school
literature class, would the family be I mean, the family
probably wouldn't think it was great, But would that be
enough to what are.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
The rights of dead people when it comes to slander
and defamation?
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Are there? Are there?
Speaker 1 (15:12):
And are they passed on to the estate of whoever died?
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Is this even a conversation. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (15:22):
It does actually bring familiar like I feel like the
Michael Jackson family and the estate had some issues with
people that were still suing the estate for potential transgressions
that he did against people, but that that it wasn't
going to go anywhere because it's not him a standing estate.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
No legal standar. It's just bad form. Is there nothing
to well?
Speaker 5 (15:48):
And we're never going to prevent people from doing bad
things because it's available to me.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
I mean, I guess if.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
You could show harm to a living relative, If Robin
William's daughter can show harm legally, she could have a lawsuit.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
But what kind of harm? The harm in that to
be psychological? And how do you put up?
Speaker 1 (16:09):
How do you you can't? That's the beauty of psychological harm.
It's hard to quantify.
Speaker 5 (16:14):
Well when it comes to much more personal things. I've
actually seen. I have seen funeral packages that include an
AI generated image message something like that from your deceased
loved one.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Yeah, as part of the package. How it's awful. Awful?
I would not want that, do you imagine?
Speaker 1 (16:40):
But see, you know what those Sometimes families have disagreements
sometimes you know, somebody will want ashes and the other
person will not want to have the ashes or what
have you. There's disagreements in families sometimes of what you
want to see happen. What if one person really wants
an AI video of the dead person and the rest
of the family is like, absolutely not. The horrifying and traumatizing,
(17:02):
and then that's another layer, layer of potential arguments agreement.
Speaker 5 (17:06):
We'll talk about what happens when you try to make
Grandma rise from the dead. Yeah, in the computer way,
not like the old fashioned horror movie. Also, gambling has
gotten bananas. We've got that coming up for you as well.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Gary and Shannon will continue.
Speaker 6 (17:22):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
This is my karaoke song Gambler because you can talk
your way through it, and we know I can't sing.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Yes, you could sing if you no, I think you could.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Well. Congratulations on ten years. Thank you so when you
started your show, Hambell was only seventy five. I wish
you the best of luck in the future, but don't
ever count on him retiring. But you don't want to
get up that early anyway. No, congrats it it.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Will be weird handles one of those people who will
work till he dies and it's gonna be weird that
it like, what if he dies on the air, Like
that's a rich Have there been people.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
He's already said, you got to leave your microsh Oh? Absolutely,
are you kidding?
Speaker 1 (18:16):
I want to hear all the gurgling I want to
hear all the end of life stuff gurgling from handle.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Yes, he would want that.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
You're honoring him and listening to all that that said.
Has there been a radio host has just died on
the air, not the not the weird TV station where
someone came in and shot those people in the head
while they were on air, But like a radio host
is just like, I'm not leaving and then they just
like one day die in the seven o'clock hour.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
I think, Yeah, I think so really just just by
sheer chance, I mean the number of yeah, the number
of unhealthy people who work in this industry.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Yeah, I'm sure it happens quite a bit.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Yeah, but usually they retire, right, you hope, or they
get fired, you'd hope, or they moved to Canada.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
You'd also hope.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
We were talking about what I'm just saying. Another land
like a different land. I didn't mean anybody in particular,
My god, I did not mean that.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
That is not what I meant.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
I meant like a nice place where you live amongst
the I'll stop too late. I was talking about how
I can get a little bit out of control when
it comes to gaming.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
From time to time, I.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Have phases and I got deep into a specific app
that I enjoy. And at one point, my brother likes
to remind me of this phase in my life a
few years ago.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
He says, you were betting on.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Darts overseas, like darts in America would be different. I
think we're just dealing with, you know, apples and apples
at this point. But I know somebody who will bet
on anything and makes my little dart for a look
like child's play. And that man is David Schata, who
worked with us. He is a brilliant engineer in the building.
(20:04):
And he's brilliant in one hand, but a complete degenerate
in the other. How bad has it gotten? Like, what
are some of your worst things that you have ever?
Speaker 4 (20:17):
Yeah, all right, I'll tell you my biggest bet. Okay,
that scared me like it was my first big But
it was like nine hundred dollars. It was when Scheck
and Wade were playing on the Heat and I was like,
why are they getting you know, the Heat are getting
eight points right, Yeah, So I was freaking out. I
(20:39):
was like, Okay, I put my entire account on there
because I had I had nine hundred dollars in my
credit card. Yeah, and I was like, well, the easiest
way to pay it off.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Right, hell yeah?
Speaker 4 (20:47):
And so I threw it down there and found out
that Wade wasn't playing that night.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
That's why.
Speaker 4 (20:55):
They were down by seven. Yeah, with the pistons and
some while somehow Shaq was cherry picking, oh my, and
dunked it with one point three seconds left.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
No, I see that gives me chills and that those
are the kinds of stories that lead me to play
with darts internationally.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
My dad used to say that, like when he'd see
a bet like that, he'd say, somebody knows something. Somebody
knows somebody somebody's not playing, somebody's in, or somebody's hurt,
somebody's six, something's off, somebody knows something. Like darts overseas,
what are some of the you know, the Heat game,
the that's all.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Like mainstream stuff. What's some of the weirder stuff. Yeah,
that you've been.
Speaker 4 (21:38):
During the Olympics. I loved handball. I learned what that is.
It's like like basketball, hockey and dodgeball. And yeah, I
love watching that game water polo just because you could
you could bet on it. When when else you're going
to bet on water polo? Let's see rowing, We totally
bet on that.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
I like you say, we like like it's like it's
not like you have a.
Speaker 5 (22:00):
Part, I have a couple, like we just got But
you also talk about like I don't remember if this
was COVID specifically, but like Korean baseball, European women's basketball, yes.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Yeah, women's sports, didn't.
Speaker 4 (22:19):
You Yes, just because the time, uh, table tennis, remember
I am. So when you're bored, you know whatever.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
The the thing is, because because it is worldwide now
there's there there's some event going on constantly around the clock.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
You just got to find out which one it is.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Was there one of these things that you were hitting
on that were it was easier because you don't know
the intricacies of the table tennis matchups. Right at this point,
you're just picking a side, right.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
Yeah, I mean, yeah, you're just finally.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Knowing knowledge about this.
Speaker 4 (22:52):
You're going with the odds and like you know, and
then you put like a couple of the like either
the favorites together where you just take one big on underdog. Yeah,
like you're supposed to bet, not parlays if you want
to win, right, you know.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Do you feel badly about this ever? Do you ever
have those talks like self, I'm betting on table tennis
and Korea.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
He scaes it to me three times a week.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
Yeah, He'll come in and he'll go, he'll go, hey,
did you watch that game last night?
Speaker 2 (23:21):
And he goes, I had the over and it whatever.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
I mean, there's always something that comes in and he's like, man,
I got to pull it together.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
And then the other day it's like, oh.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Man, do you see that I had the over and
I got the parlay with the guy scoring twenty seven
and a half points and he's happy.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
Well my two NFL bets this weekend, both the wide
receivers got hurt. I had Puka and I had that
dude from I went to Ohio State with Tampa Bay
in Buca or whatever. Oh it hurt in the second
and third and my parlays were out the window after that.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Injuries this season are worse than I've ever remembered across
the board.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
People have weak bones. Fred Warner's bones aren't weak. I
was hurtful.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
I was a painful Okay, So now shta the reason
we bring you in here.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
I got to know if you would be into this.
I know you bet on w NBA.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Yes, yeah, you do bet on the like you know,
do you watch the w NBA or.
Speaker 4 (24:18):
Just this year?
Speaker 6 (24:19):
I have?
Speaker 2 (24:20):
You have?
Speaker 4 (24:20):
And Alyssa Thomas is a beast in Phoenix.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Okay, all right, so now we know somebody who watches
the w NBA. So put that check that off on
our card over there. There are people now betting on Ah.
Now that I'm mentioning this, you've brought this to my
attention like months ago.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
Yeah, it was probably like.
Speaker 6 (24:45):
It realized.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
I'm like, care brought this up, and I thought he
was joking. I thought it was a joke between us friends.
He said, people are betting on the player's menstrual cycles.
If you've heard about this, and I thought, ha ha,
what a funny joke.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
You were serious.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
Yeah, they're actually using the menstrual cycle apps to track them.
Speaker 5 (25:04):
There are apps for this, yep, Well there's apps for
women to track their own site.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
I don't know if you know this, but women play
in the w n b A.
Speaker 5 (25:13):
No, no, I'm just saying that Dave is saying he
might have an app that would try I'm not not you,
but let's just say a guy named Dave might have
an app like this to keep track of some of
his favorite stars in the w n b A and
might not be as app to bet for the over
(25:36):
right on.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Their Well, what's the correlation, Dave?
Speaker 4 (25:39):
They said, when they're on it, they shoot worse. Really, yes,
and that's like that affects like.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
They take more shots.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Have they gotten into the minutia of why the shots
aren't falling? Are they more aggressive with the shots?
Speaker 2 (25:55):
I'm not saying anything good. That is smart way, but
it's a real it's a real thing.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
And it and it's it tracks like that people are
betting this way and it's working.
Speaker 4 (26:08):
Yes, that's what they claim. But you can't always how did.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
This get started?
Speaker 1 (26:12):
If you this is just hitting the mainstream news, but
you you were onto this? Is this something you came
up with or you heard it in your degenerates?
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Honestly, during COVID, that's when it started.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
COVID is when guys got into athletes menstrual cycles.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Yeah, my god, what a dark time for all of us.
There's a guy.
Speaker 5 (26:28):
There's a guy quoted in this Wired article, by the way,
doesn't give his real name. His his online handle is
fade me bets, and he wrote about this and using
period apps to figure out when you're gonna when you're
gonna bet on these women. He said, quote a lot
of gamblers, they aren't the nicest people.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Well no, but that's not true, because Dave's one of
the nice But here's my other question. When you spend
women female athletes who are listening to this probably have
come to the same kind of question that I have.
When you spend a lot of time together as women
like these teams, do you kind of sync up?
Speaker 4 (27:11):
That's honestly what I thought to you. I've never bet
on this, so I just want to make that clear.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
It's okay if you have. This is a judgment free zone.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
Listen.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
I may be a degenerate, but I'm not that much
of a degenerate.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
But that's what I ad That's honestly what I asked
my chick and she uh. She was like, yeah, that's
pretty much.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
True, right and huh.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
So I'm just wondering, like if you just I don't know,
I don't know how it works, but I'm certainly not
going to do research on that.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
Oh. If there's definitely way to get odds, they'll figure
it out.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
They'll figure it out. Thanks day, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
That was illuminating, Gary, especially when I realized that you
were onto that months ago.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Gary and Shannon will continue.
Speaker 6 (27:53):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
You look so young?
Speaker 4 (28:04):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (28:05):
Wow? Is it the glasses?
Speaker 1 (28:07):
I think I don't know, it was a different time
ten years ago. I can't believe it's been ten years. Oh,
by like that to me, I feel like, I mean,
I know a lot has happened.
Speaker 5 (28:17):
Well when you're having fun, Yeah, Gary and Shaman KFI
AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeart Radio.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
I had asked if anybody on the air a radio
host has died on the air, not in connection with you, but.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Richie dug up the details here.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
A couple of notable examples Luther Luke, James Ooh forty
six years old or was he on the air from
fifty to ninety six?
Speaker 2 (28:46):
No, I think he was forty six years old.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Really, well, then the other guy wasn't that much anyway. Oh, yeah,
he was older.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
I was in his seventies. Let's see.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Luther Luke James was on WCLM and Richmond, Virginia died
of a heart attack, says in nineteen ninety six while
doing his regular show on the air, he collapsed and
died in the studio from a heart attack. The station
was playing gospel music at the time, and the music
continued as he passed away quietly at the microphone.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Creepy, it's beautiful, creepy. The other one was Mike Sinto.
Speaker 5 (29:20):
Although he wasn't technically on the air, he did apparently
have a heart attack while on the air and then
died just after that, discovered by local media. Station paid
tribute to his career. Wow, that's really dark. Yeah, I
feel like that's that happens.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
It doesn't happen though.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
I know people die, yes, but you don't just die
on the air with your mic hot that's the other thing. Well,
that would know, what if he died in a commercial break,
that's a waste.
Speaker 8 (29:51):
Well, congratulations on ten years. I hope it didn't miss
out on your ten year university for you too. I
remember Gary was with Bill Handle and Shannon you were
joh it can but then you guys got together. Now
it's one of those brilliant shows that we love listening
to and just keep it going and don't stop, and
we love you guys. And the one who aged the
(30:12):
best out of ten years, I have to say Gary
has so there you go.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Al right, guys, it was such a nice a nice
message with a parting shot at the end. But it's
true you have aged the best. You don't age, you've
actually aged better. I think you look better now than
you did ten years ago.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
Like this. This is one of the first pictures that
we ever took as a full Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
I think you're still trying to find yourself.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
That picture.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Us.
Speaker 5 (30:39):
It's one of our old producers. I don't remember his name.
I remember his name.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
That men aged great would just age slower?
Speaker 2 (30:50):
No, men aged great.
Speaker 3 (30:53):
No.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
I think it's like the Sean Connery principle. Sean Connery
looked better later.
Speaker 2 (30:59):
I think.
Speaker 5 (31:02):
You liked him better as Indiana Jones's dad. That Robert Redford,
I liked better James Bond. Yeah, okay, I liked him
Hunt for Red October. Sean Connery so starting to get gray. Yeah,
I guess he's pretty gray. Salt and pepper by then.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
All right, well, I like my men right before they're
about to die on the air, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
Thursday, you can come out and celerate.
Speaker 5 (31:29):
It's not necessarily our anniversary party, but we can, you know,
make some hay if you will make some Hey. Thursday,
We're going to be live at Bjay's Restaurant in Brewe
House in Huntington Beach once again on Beach Boulevard.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
It's the one that's easier to get to.
Speaker 5 (31:42):
It's right off of the four h five freeway, and
it is always a great time out there.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
So we would love it if you would come on
out and say hi. Yeah, always a great time.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
You know. You know this, you know, asked and answered, understood.
At this point, after ten years of having a news
and bruise out of Bjay's Huntington Beach, you just know
what you've signed up for. It's like going to a
grateful Dead show, you know what I mean. We've been around,
oh you know what the experience.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Is it's the first news and Bruce we Ever did
Oh yeah, look at that.
Speaker 5 (32:11):
That was that was I think before we ate in
the commercial break.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
You wouldn't even fit in that shirt today. I don't
even own that shirt anymore.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
I don't think I wouldn't fit in that shirt. Dare you?
Speaker 4 (32:24):
No?
Speaker 2 (32:25):
I just mean it's a bigger shirt. What is that?
Speaker 5 (32:27):
That's the blood splatter line in the hotel that in
Middleburg Heights.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Oh, that is troubling. That is a legit blood spatter.
Big picture with Via Gosa in the airport before the convention.
Did I eat a house? Jesus? Can you stop showing pictures?
Hit the thing? You've been listening to The Gary and
Shannon Show.
Speaker 5 (32:54):
You can always hear us live on KFI AM six
forty nine am to one pm every Monday through Friday,
and any time on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to kf
I AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Your Thing with Diane Keaton.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Man, it like flooded my my dms over the weekend.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
DM.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Everyone had to say, this is for Gary, this is
for Gary, This is for Gary, This is for Gary.
With announcement after announcement after announcement of Diane Keaton's death.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Why would I why would it?
Speaker 4 (00:32):
Okay? Listen?
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Yeah, yeah, for a long time. I hated you for
a long time. All weekend I thought, damn it.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
I was like, here we go again, here's another Diane
Keaton death notification.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
I didn't want to see her pass. That's not that's awful.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
People said she looked very thin, but she had talked
about struggles with bolimia.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Oh so that can take its toll on us.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
And I read a.
Speaker 5 (00:54):
Whole lot of I read more Diane Keaton situation this
weekend than any other time in my life.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Oh, because I was bad?
Speaker 6 (01:02):
Huh?
Speaker 5 (01:02):
Did you feel bad? No, a little bit. I wanted
to know what happened. I mean it was it was
one of those things. She's not somebody that I've seen
very often. I don't obviously, I wouldn't seek out interviews
with her, like for previews for her latest book club
movie or whatever. But I didn't hear that she had
(01:23):
been sick. And I mean I was not alone in that.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
She always and she always has appeared to be the
strong woman.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Like she's strong.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
I mean, she's not sturdy, but she's always seemed to
be like that woman who's got it together, scut her
own voice, and she's strong, and she's gonna wear her
hats and her scars, you'd be.
Speaker 5 (01:42):
Damned, regardless of what dummies like me say exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
And she always played that. You know, she didn't always
play that role. You know, I'm thinking of like First
Wives Club, where she plays a pushover. She said, by
the way, I read over the weekend that her favorite
movie that she ever did was the one with Jack Nicholson.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
And something's got to give a great movie.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Where he is dating her daughter a spoiler alert from
two thousand and two something like that. He's dating her daughter.
It's one of those you know, winter spring romance. Yeah,
and and and the daughter brings him home and he
meets Diane Keaton and you know, the two are contemporary,
(02:24):
is the same age, and exactly what you think is
going to play out plays out, and it really is
a great movie.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
You were mentioning the belief was that the right one.
Somebody's got to give hers a different I think you're right.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
You may have something wrong about that, because there was
another one where he plays that neurotic guy with all
those issues.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
That's with Helen Hunt. That's with Helen Hunt. Okay, you
make me want to be a better man. Yeah, man,
Jack Nicholson, what a career.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
You mentioned the Bolivia, though she did an interview a
while ago where she referenced that time when she was
boliemic or was dealing with bolimia. However she wanted to
describe it and that she was in taking twenty thousand
calories a day and estimated twenty thousand calories, and the
way she would describe what she would eat for dinner,
I mean a couple of pizzas and a full bowl
(03:14):
of ramen, and like a couple of desserts possible. I
don't know, but that's the Bolimia party. When was that
in her life? It wasn't that long ago from what
I remember, or maybe the interview, wasn't that long ago
that she's probably.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Been so thin for as long as I can remember
to be.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
I mean, even if you were a beliemic twenty thousand,
how do you even put that away?
Speaker 5 (03:36):
I don't know, knew one guy in college that would
eat like that because he was a marathon runner.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
I mean, I've seen you eat like that in one meal,
but I'm imagined the results of it. But you have
that for one meal, and I do see the results.
But if you had like that one meal eight times
a day, I'd be worried.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
It's time for swamp watch.
Speaker 7 (03:58):
I'm a politician, which means I'm che and when I'm
not kissing babies, I'm stealing that lollipop. Here we got
the real problem is that our leaders are dumb.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
The other side never quit, so what I'm not going anywhere?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
So now you play the squaw, I can imagine what
can be and be unburdened by what has been.
Speaker 8 (04:18):
You know, Americans have always been gone president, but they're
not stupid.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
A political plunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Why have the people voted for you? With not swamp watch?
I actually don't see you eat much anymore? Is that
why you just gone round eating I'm going to eat
a pop tart.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
I'm honest, I'm gonna eat that whole. You should eat that,
both of them. I gots delicious. So I don't know
anybody who's not giving credit to President Trump for this
Gaza Hamas Peace deal. Now sorry, Israel Hamas Pie steel.
Speaker 7 (04:50):
Now at lasts, not only for Israelis, but also for
Palestidians and for many others. The long and painful night
is finally over, and as the dust settles, the smoke fades,
the debris is removed, and the ashes cleaned from the air.
(05:11):
The day that breaks on a region transformed, and a
beautiful and much brighter future appears suddenly within your reach.
This is now a very exciting time for Israel and
for the entire Middle East, because all across the Middle East,
the forces of chaos, terra and ruin that have plagued
(05:34):
the region for decades now stand weakened, isolated, and totally defeated.
Speaker 5 (05:40):
I was President Trump speaking to the Israeli Kannessed earlier.
He went on to Egypt to Charmel Shak, where he
signed the actual deal with several world leaders who showed
up and then barded Air Force one. He is expected
to be back on his way towards Washington, DC.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
You are much more. You are well versed, not much more.
I am not versed at all. You are well versed
when it comes to Israeli politics. What does this mean
for Netanyahu in his current approval ratings that seem to
be tenuous.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
I appreciate the compliment, but I have no flipping idea. Oh.
Speaker 5 (06:17):
I mean, he's a guy who obviously two years ago
everybody wanted him to respond to the terrorist attack of
October seventh, and he did, but he never let his
foot off the gas. And that's when Israel, in the
last couple of months had become sort of this pariah
(06:37):
state where longtime allies had thought that Benjamin Netnahu and
his war cabinet were way too over the top in
doing what they did to the people that lived in Gaza.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
A warmonger is how I've heard him described.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
And now is it Trump's relationship with him where he
listens to Trump, Trump's able to say, hey, take your
foot off the gas? Is that what happened here? They've
had a relationship for quite some time, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
But I don't think.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
I don't think he listened to Trump, or I should say,
I'm not sure that that was the message from Trump.
I think the message might have been something more akin
to starting to not look good, like, when are we
gonna wrap this thing up? Because this is taken forever
and you're killing a lot of people, and yeah, you
don't want to, but a lot of civilians are dying
kind of thing. I don't know if Trump ever asked
(07:28):
him to pull back in any way. But the one
thing that did happen that was given a lot of credit,
or at least a lot of commentators this morning we're
saying should be given credit was Operation Midnight Hammer, when
we flew and blew up a lot of Iranian nuclear capability,
not all of it, but a lot of it. That
(07:50):
that put everybody in that region on notice. Iran is
not going to help you out. They do not have
the major backstop policy of a nuclear threat to back
up whatever plans you have in the future. So a
lot of people gave that military operation sort of the
credit for being the genesis of this peace deal.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
All right, Gary and Shannon will continue coming up next.
We've got your shun at one thousand dollars. Also, AI
videos of dead celebrities are horrifying their families, and Washington
Post columnist uses AI to resurrect her grandmother and it
doesn't go well.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
We got both of those for you on tap. Garian
Shannon will continue.
Speaker 6 (08:32):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
You heard net and Yahoo talk about Trump and how
wonderful he is from the podium, and then apparently the
favor was returned and it triggered controversy. President Trump triggering
that controversy in Israel.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
They said it was a.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Jaw dropping moment when Trump, during his address in Jerusalem,
turned to Israel's president to advocate. He pardoned Prime Minister
NETANYAHUO on the long standing fraud and bribery charges. Trump said,
flashing a smile, come on, give him a pardon, called
(09:18):
him one of the greatest wartime leaders. It drew apparently
an ecstatic burst of applause from the Prime Minister's lawmakers
and other supporters who were chanting his nickname. Anyway, of course,
so it's Trump wading into Israel's internal affairs.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Well, it's not like there's a place that's off limits
for him.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
No, no, but more traditional Israelis were shocked by this.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
Yeah, come on, come on, we have a chance for
you to win a thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (09:58):

Again, the keyword is deposit that goes on the website

to win another thousand dollars. If you have not yet
seen the new AI video maker, it's called Sora two
s O R A and it is making these incredibly
realistic AI generated videos that you tell it what to
(10:47):
make basically, and it comes out with these these clips.
Still a few things that make it obviously fake. Some
of them are hard to pinpoint, others are very very clear.
But there's a movement out there of people who think
it's funny or interesting or whatever to have dead celebrities,
(11:13):
whether it's actual, you know, Hollywood celebrity or somebody from
politics or pop culture, whatever it is, and using the
celebrity images to do things that those celebrities would never do,
or put them in situations that obviously they would never
have been in because they passed away.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Like Malcolm X making crude jokes, wrestling with Martin Luther
King Junior talking about defecating on himself.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
His daughter does not want to see these.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Sora has produced videos of Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, Amy
Winehouse at have flooded social media, and some viewers, as
you know, as you can imagine, I don't know if
this is real or if this is fake, certainly not
if they didn't live in the time these people lived
in and knew who they were. Some clips are for laughs,
like a video of mister Rogers, neighborhood host Fred Rogers
writing a rap song with Tupac, but some have been
(12:11):
darker when video shows body camera footage of Whitney Houston
looking drunk or high.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
What about the uh Kobe Bryant in a helicopter.
Speaker 5 (12:26):
Or JFK making a joke about the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Robin Williams's daughter has pleaded on an Instagram post for
people to stop sending me AI videos of Dad. She says,
to watch the legacies of real people be condensed down
to TikTok slop puppeteering of them is maddening.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
Amen, that's a pretty poignant way to put it, right.
Henry Ader is an AI expert studies deep fakes, and
he has coined the term synthetic resurrection to describe creating
digital copies of the dead. And then I mean that
term that she used, the puppetry with deceased individuals, says Henry.
(13:11):
This opens up a huge question about ownership of likeness
and really fundamentally changes the social contract around what it
means to be you online. And he said that this
vision is becoming a more common reality. The prospect of
digitally cloning the dead is already sparking questions about an
(13:32):
ability a family member's ability to control their deceased loved
ones images online.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Open Ai has described its video tool as a wellspring
of creativity.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
One executive said that they've been permissive with video creation
to avoid a competitive disadvantage from lasi fair rivals.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
So we'll make ours the best.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
If you want to depict dead Robin Williams, we'll do
it better than the other ones that are popping up
so that we can keep ownership.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Of this tool.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
What is it the creativity versus distaste argument we're going
to have?
Speaker 2 (14:17):
When are you being creative? And when do you veer
into what not criminal?
Speaker 5 (14:25):
Maybe not criminal, but just a well, I don't even
know the right word, a civil a civil disparagement of
somebody that, yeah, you know, because slander, slander, sure, deformation.
But if you're just having as used Robin Williams as
an example, if you're just having Robin Williams read the
(14:49):
prologue to the Canterbury Tales, which I don't know if
he ever did in real life. But if he did
and then you showed that in say your high school
literature class, would the family be I mean, the family
probably wouldn't think it was great, But would that be
enough to what are.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
The rights of dead people when it comes to slander
and defamation?
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Are there? Are there?
Speaker 1 (15:12):
And are they passed on to the estate of whoever died?
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Is this even a conversation. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (15:22):
It does actually bring familiar like I feel like the
Michael Jackson family and the estate had some issues with
people that were still suing the estate for potential transgressions
that he did against people, but that that it wasn't
going to go anywhere because it's not him a standing estate.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
No legal standar. It's just bad form. Is there nothing
to well?
Speaker 5 (15:48):
And we're never going to prevent people from doing bad
things because it's available to me.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
I mean, I guess if.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
You could show harm to a living relative, If Robin
William's daughter can show harm legally, she could have a lawsuit.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
But what kind of harm? The harm in that to
be psychological? And how do you put up?
Speaker 1 (16:09):
How do you you can't? That's the beauty of psychological harm.
It's hard to quantify.
Speaker 5 (16:14):
Well when it comes to much more personal things. I've
actually seen. I have seen funeral packages that include an
AI generated image message something like that from your deceased
loved one.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Yeah, as part of the package. How it's awful. Awful?
I would not want that, do you imagine?
Speaker 1 (16:40):
But see, you know what those Sometimes families have disagreements
sometimes you know, somebody will want ashes and the other
person will not want to have the ashes or what
have you. There's disagreements in families sometimes of what you
want to see happen. What if one person really wants
an AI video of the dead person and the rest
of the family is like, absolutely not. The horrifying and traumatizing,
(17:02):
and then that's another layer, layer of potential arguments agreement.
Speaker 5 (17:06):
We'll talk about what happens when you try to make
Grandma rise from the dead. Yeah, in the computer way,
not like the old fashioned horror movie. Also, gambling has
gotten bananas. We've got that coming up for you as well.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Gary and Shannon will continue.
Speaker 6 (17:22):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
This is my karaoke song Gambler because you can talk
your way through it, and we know I can't sing.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Yes, you could sing if you no, I think you could.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Well. Congratulations on ten years. Thank you so when you
started your show, Hambell was only seventy five. I wish
you the best of luck in the future, but don't
ever count on him retiring. But you don't want to
get up that early anyway. No, congrats it it.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Will be weird handles one of those people who will
work till he dies and it's gonna be weird that
it like, what if he dies on the air, Like
that's a rich Have there been people.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
He's already said, you got to leave your microsh Oh? Absolutely,
are you kidding?
Speaker 1 (18:16):
I want to hear all the gurgling I want to
hear all the end of life stuff gurgling from handle.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Yes, he would want that.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
You're honoring him and listening to all that that said.
Has there been a radio host has just died on
the air, not the not the weird TV station where
someone came in and shot those people in the head
while they were on air, But like a radio host
is just like, I'm not leaving and then they just
like one day die in the seven o'clock hour.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
I think, Yeah, I think so really just just by
sheer chance, I mean the number of yeah, the number
of unhealthy people who work in this industry.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Yeah, I'm sure it happens quite a bit.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Yeah, but usually they retire, right, you hope, or they
get fired, you'd hope, or they moved to Canada.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
You'd also hope.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
We were talking about what I'm just saying. Another land
like a different land. I didn't mean anybody in particular,
My god, I did not mean that.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
That is not what I meant.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
I meant like a nice place where you live amongst
the I'll stop too late. I was talking about how
I can get a little bit out of control when
it comes to gaming.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
From time to time, I.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Have phases and I got deep into a specific app
that I enjoy. And at one point, my brother likes
to remind me of this phase in my life a
few years ago.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
He says, you were betting on.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Darts overseas, like darts in America would be different. I
think we're just dealing with, you know, apples and apples
at this point. But I know somebody who will bet
on anything and makes my little dart for a look
like child's play. And that man is David Schata, who
worked with us. He is a brilliant engineer in the building.
(20:04):
And he's brilliant in one hand, but a complete degenerate
in the other. How bad has it gotten? Like, what
are some of your worst things that you have ever?
Speaker 4 (20:17):
Yeah, all right, I'll tell you my biggest bet. Okay,
that scared me like it was my first big But
it was like nine hundred dollars. It was when Scheck
and Wade were playing on the Heat and I was like,
why are they getting you know, the Heat are getting
eight points right, Yeah, So I was freaking out. I
(20:39):
was like, Okay, I put my entire account on there
because I had I had nine hundred dollars in my
credit card. Yeah, and I was like, well, the easiest
way to pay it off.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Right, hell yeah?
Speaker 4 (20:47):
And so I threw it down there and found out
that Wade wasn't playing that night.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
That's why.
Speaker 4 (20:55):
They were down by seven. Yeah, with the pistons and
some while somehow Shaq was cherry picking, oh my, and
dunked it with one point three seconds left.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
No, I see that gives me chills and that those
are the kinds of stories that lead me to play
with darts internationally.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
My dad used to say that, like when he'd see
a bet like that, he'd say, somebody knows something. Somebody
knows somebody somebody's not playing, somebody's in, or somebody's hurt,
somebody's six, something's off, somebody knows something. Like darts overseas,
what are some of the you know, the Heat game,
the that's all.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Like mainstream stuff. What's some of the weirder stuff. Yeah,
that you've been.
Speaker 4 (21:38):
During the Olympics. I loved handball. I learned what that is.
It's like like basketball, hockey and dodgeball. And yeah, I
love watching that game water polo just because you could
you could bet on it. When when else you're going
to bet on water polo? Let's see rowing, We totally
bet on that.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
I like you say, we like like it's like it's
not like you have a.
Speaker 5 (22:00):
Part, I have a couple, like we just got But
you also talk about like I don't remember if this
was COVID specifically, but like Korean baseball, European women's basketball, yes.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Yeah, women's sports, didn't.
Speaker 4 (22:19):
You Yes, just because the time, uh, table tennis, remember
I am. So when you're bored, you know whatever.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
The the thing is, because because it is worldwide now
there's there there's some event going on constantly around the clock.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
You just got to find out which one it is.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Was there one of these things that you were hitting
on that were it was easier because you don't know
the intricacies of the table tennis matchups. Right at this point,
you're just picking a side, right.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
Yeah, I mean, yeah, you're just finally.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Knowing knowledge about this.
Speaker 4 (22:52):
You're going with the odds and like you know, and
then you put like a couple of the like either
the favorites together where you just take one big on underdog. Yeah,
like you're supposed to bet, not parlays if you want
to win, right, you know.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Do you feel badly about this ever? Do you ever
have those talks like self, I'm betting on table tennis
and Korea.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
He scaes it to me three times a week.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
Yeah, He'll come in and he'll go, he'll go, hey,
did you watch that game last night?
Speaker 2 (23:21):
And he goes, I had the over and it whatever.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
I mean, there's always something that comes in and he's like, man,
I got to pull it together.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
And then the other day it's like, oh.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Man, do you see that I had the over and
I got the parlay with the guy scoring twenty seven
and a half points and he's happy.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
Well my two NFL bets this weekend, both the wide
receivers got hurt. I had Puka and I had that
dude from I went to Ohio State with Tampa Bay
in Buca or whatever. Oh it hurt in the second
and third and my parlays were out the window after that.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Injuries this season are worse than I've ever remembered across
the board.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
People have weak bones. Fred Warner's bones aren't weak. I
was hurtful.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
I was a painful Okay, So now shta the reason
we bring you in here.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
I got to know if you would be into this.
I know you bet on w NBA.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Yes, yeah, you do bet on the like you know,
do you watch the w NBA or.
Speaker 4 (24:18):
Just this year?
Speaker 6 (24:19):
I have?
Speaker 2 (24:20):
You have?
Speaker 4 (24:20):
And Alyssa Thomas is a beast in Phoenix.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Okay, all right, so now we know somebody who watches
the w NBA. So put that check that off on
our card over there. There are people now betting on Ah.
Now that I'm mentioning this, you've brought this to my
attention like months ago.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
Yeah, it was probably like.
Speaker 6 (24:45):
It realized.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
I'm like, care brought this up, and I thought he
was joking. I thought it was a joke between us friends.
He said, people are betting on the player's menstrual cycles.
If you've heard about this, and I thought, ha ha,
what a funny joke.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
You were serious.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
Yeah, they're actually using the menstrual cycle apps to track them.
Speaker 5 (25:04):
There are apps for this, yep, Well there's apps for
women to track their own site.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
I don't know if you know this, but women play
in the w n b A.
Speaker 5 (25:13):
No, no, I'm just saying that Dave is saying he
might have an app that would try I'm not not you,
but let's just say a guy named Dave might have
an app like this to keep track of some of
his favorite stars in the w n b A and
might not be as app to bet for the over
(25:36):
right on.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Their Well, what's the correlation, Dave?
Speaker 4 (25:39):
They said, when they're on it, they shoot worse. Really, yes,
and that's like that affects like.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
They take more shots.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Have they gotten into the minutia of why the shots
aren't falling? Are they more aggressive with the shots?
Speaker 2 (25:55):
I'm not saying anything good. That is smart way, but
it's a real it's a real thing.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
And it and it's it tracks like that people are
betting this way and it's working.
Speaker 4 (26:08):
Yes, that's what they claim. But you can't always how did.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
This get started?
Speaker 1 (26:12):
If you this is just hitting the mainstream news, but
you you were onto this? Is this something you came
up with or you heard it in your degenerates?
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Honestly, during COVID, that's when it started.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
COVID is when guys got into athletes menstrual cycles.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Yeah, my god, what a dark time for all of us.
There's a guy.
Speaker 5 (26:28):
There's a guy quoted in this Wired article, by the way,
doesn't give his real name. His his online handle is
fade me bets, and he wrote about this and using
period apps to figure out when you're gonna when you're
gonna bet on these women. He said, quote a lot
of gamblers, they aren't the nicest people.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Well no, but that's not true, because Dave's one of
the nice But here's my other question. When you spend
women female athletes who are listening to this probably have
come to the same kind of question that I have.
When you spend a lot of time together as women
like these teams, do you kind of sync up?
Speaker 4 (27:11):
That's honestly what I thought to you. I've never bet
on this, so I just want to make that clear.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
It's okay if you have. This is a judgment free zone.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
Listen.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
I may be a degenerate, but I'm not that much
of a degenerate.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
But that's what I ad That's honestly what I asked
my chick and she uh. She was like, yeah, that's
pretty much.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
True, right and huh.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
So I'm just wondering, like if you just I don't know,
I don't know how it works, but I'm certainly not
going to do research on that.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
Oh. If there's definitely way to get odds, they'll figure
it out.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
They'll figure it out. Thanks day, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
That was illuminating, Gary, especially when I realized that you
were onto that months ago.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Gary and Shannon will continue.
Speaker 6 (27:53):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
You look so young?
Speaker 4 (28:04):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (28:05):
Wow? Is it the glasses?
Speaker 1 (28:07):
I think I don't know, it was a different time
ten years ago. I can't believe it's been ten years. Oh,
by like that to me, I feel like, I mean,
I know a lot has happened.
Speaker 5 (28:17):
Well when you're having fun, Yeah, Gary and Shaman KFI
AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeart Radio.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
I had asked if anybody on the air a radio
host has died on the air, not in connection with you, but.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Richie dug up the details here.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
A couple of notable examples Luther Luke, James Ooh forty
six years old or was he on the air from
fifty to ninety six?
Speaker 2 (28:46):
No, I think he was forty six years old.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Really, well, then the other guy wasn't that much anyway. Oh, yeah,
he was older.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
I was in his seventies. Let's see.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Luther Luke James was on WCLM and Richmond, Virginia died
of a heart attack, says in nineteen ninety six while
doing his regular show on the air, he collapsed and
died in the studio from a heart attack. The station
was playing gospel music at the time, and the music
continued as he passed away quietly at the microphone.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Creepy, it's beautiful, creepy. The other one was Mike Sinto.
Speaker 5 (29:20):
Although he wasn't technically on the air, he did apparently
have a heart attack while on the air and then
died just after that, discovered by local media. Station paid
tribute to his career. Wow, that's really dark. Yeah, I
feel like that's that happens.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
It doesn't happen though.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
I know people die, yes, but you don't just die
on the air with your mic hot that's the other thing. Well,
that would know, what if he died in a commercial break,
that's a waste.
Speaker 8 (29:51):
Well, congratulations on ten years. I hope it didn't miss
out on your ten year university for you too. I
remember Gary was with Bill Handle and Shannon you were
joh it can but then you guys got together. Now
it's one of those brilliant shows that we love listening
to and just keep it going and don't stop, and
we love you guys. And the one who aged the
(30:12):
best out of ten years, I have to say Gary
has so there you go.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Al right, guys, it was such a nice a nice
message with a parting shot at the end. But it's
true you have aged the best. You don't age, you've
actually aged better. I think you look better now than
you did ten years ago.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
Like this. This is one of the first pictures that
we ever took as a full Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
I think you're still trying to find yourself.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
That picture.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Us.
Speaker 5 (30:39):
It's one of our old producers. I don't remember his name.
I remember his name.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
That men aged great would just age slower?
Speaker 2 (30:50):
No, men aged great.
Speaker 3 (30:53):
No.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
I think it's like the Sean Connery principle. Sean Connery
looked better later.
Speaker 2 (30:59):
I think.
Speaker 5 (31:02):
You liked him better as Indiana Jones's dad. That Robert Redford,
I liked better James Bond. Yeah, okay, I liked him
Hunt for Red October. Sean Connery so starting to get gray. Yeah,
I guess he's pretty gray. Salt and pepper by then.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
All right, well, I like my men right before they're
about to die on the air, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
Thursday, you can come out and celerate.
Speaker 5 (31:29):
It's not necessarily our anniversary party, but we can, you know,
make some hay if you will make some Hey. Thursday,

House in Huntington Beach once again on Beach Boulevard.

Oh yeah, look at that.
Speaker 5 (32:11):
That was that was I think before we ate in
the commercial break.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
You wouldn't even fit in that shirt today. I don't
even own that shirt anymore.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
I don't think I wouldn't fit in that shirt. Dare you?
Speaker 4 (32:24):
No?
Speaker 2 (32:25):
I just mean it's a bigger shirt. What is that?
Speaker 5 (32:27):
That's the blood splatter line in the hotel that in
Middleburg Heights.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Oh, that is troubling. That is a legit blood spatter.
