Speaker 1 (00:00):

The special announcement?
Speaker 2 (00:15):

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Okay, but we will unveil the special announcement right at
nine o'clock.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Are you gonna be able to wait until nine o'clock
or are you gonna post something in the afternoon or the
evening or the.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Middle of the night tonight.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Yeah, you're gonna wake up at you know, one thirty
am and say, I've got to let everybody know right now?
Just so excited you are excited.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
I want to know what it is you do.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Yeah, we can't tell everybody.
Speaker 4 (00:43):
Elmer does, Gary, Chris SIV you'd tell everybody we gave
you the secret, and just I would?
Speaker 3 (00:49):
I would.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Do you think that Gary's American flag bikini is a hint? Oh?
Speaker 3 (00:57):
I hope so you said that.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Wow, Please don't ever speak like that again.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
He can appreciate you in a bikini without wanting that.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Yeah. No, not like that, Gary, Right, I can appreciate patriotism.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
I can appreciate a female in a bikini. Why can't
I appreciate you in a bikini?
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Yeah, you're filling up all the right spots.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
This is a liberty for all, not just some. You're
filling out all the right spot.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Else is going on? Time four? What's happening?
Speaker 5 (01:33):
Well?
Speaker 4 (01:34):
Last night was the last debate for the candidates for
governor before the primary, the primary, of course June second.
A lot of people already have their ballots in their hands,
so those decisions shall be made soon. June second, of course,
like I said, is the is the primary. There is
another mayor's debate coming up next week. However, as of
(01:59):
right now, the Fox LA write up about their own
their own debate coming up at the Pat Brown Institute
for Public Affairs is that Spencer Pratt is not part
of it. The list of scheduled lists of participants includes
Mayor Bass and Nithie Rahman, but also Ray Wang, pastor
(02:22):
and housing advocate, and Adam Miller, entrepreneur and nonprofit founder.
This will be next Wednesday, May thirteenth, coming up at
six o'clock.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
I think you're right as they get further into these
debates are going to get more granular. And I don't
think Spencer Pratt has anything to gain by going to
these His ground is all made up on TikTok. His
ground is all made up through his viral videos. It's
not made up through policy points.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
I am. I do have a I will say this,
I do have a problem his.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Ads that have been put out, these videos that are
out there on social media are pretty amazing. But I
do not like necessarily the use of AI to just
that's a bothersome part to me. But everything else about
them is great.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Speaking of MacArthur Park, two people suspected of being the
main suppliers of fentanyl and meth have been arrested. Federal
officials rounded up more than a dozen officials linked to
an open air drug market. There, eighteen of twenty five
people facing federal drug traffic charges.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
This was Assistant US Attorney Bill of sale yesterday.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
We're here today because California policies have failed. The policies
of California to just let people use drugs open and
notoriously with little to know criminal consequences is a failed experiment.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Just looking at the footage of what these agents had
to deal with just yesterday, not a compilation of things
that have gone over the last thirty days or ninety days,
but just yesterday. The number of people that were hunched
over MacArthur Park in that fentanyl fold or the overdosed
people on the ground that they were trying to resuscitate,
(04:07):
is on just a random Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
New forecasts say one of the most powerful El Nino
events ever recorded could form in the coming months. For
several months, forecasters have been predicting this possible super El Nino.
I remember us talking about it that could emerge and
persist through the end of this year. This is because
of warmer than usual sea service tempts in the Pacific Nino.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Marco Rubio met with the Pope today talk about the
Middle East. Secretary of State met with His Holiness Pope
Leo this Excivy fourteenth to discuss the situation in.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
The Middle East.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Discounting all the leos.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
No, I was trying to remember my Roman numerals.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Oh, I thought you were going through all the popes.
I thought you had had somehow where picked up an
extensive knowledge of the history of popes, like the number
for pie. Suddenly you just had all of them in
your in your rolodex erap. In the mental there was
the first.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Pope leo, and then the second one, right, and then
the next one, the next one, the next one, the
next one, the next one, the next one, the next one,
the next one, the next one, the next one, the
next one, and now this one.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Yeah, so you do sounds good because you can make
it past three point one?
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Four?
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Can't you?
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Two?
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Or the next three?
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Boom boom everybody.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
Hey, do not get the haunt of virus. It sounds
like it's pretty awful.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
And the first phases usually flew like it would be fever.
Speaker 7 (05:33):
Chills, really bad muscle aches, particularly in the back muscles,
and your whole body.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Myself, I gets the reason I'm doing it. After that,
I hate illness.
Speaker 7 (05:44):
The way that this virus it become serious. The lining
of the blood vesters, and it makes the blood vessels leaky,
so that if the vessels and the lungs leak, fluid
can fill into the lungs, causing respiratory failure. As I
see you l treatment, they need to be put into
ice and used, get to the hospital leaders and then
with good supportive care, they can often get better, but
(06:06):
it does still carry a relatively high mortality.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Right he Yeah, I'm going to go to yoga this
afternoon and by tomorrow I'll be an urgent care with
leaky vessels and they'll look at me like I'm crazy
and all your fault.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Health authorities have identified this Andy's strain of hantavirus in
those passengers, so they have confirmed it was that Andy's strain.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
See it's rough because it's allergy season two right.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
Yes, Like it's just the tiniest little itch and you've
got hantavirus. Now, they are trying to track down everybody,
by the way, who was on this ship, and they've
said several people got off. The ship went to Johannesburg,
South Africa, and then flew to other parts around the world,
including a couple of people here in the United That excellent.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Hey, don't forget coming up. We do have the three
most revealing questions people ask when no one's looking, somebody
who studied data at Google is talking. And it's pretty
funny with those questions.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
Also, we should probably stand up when we do the story,
right Why why sitting is quietly wrecking us?
Speaker 1 (07:07):
So it's funny. I read that that headline. I saw
it in the rundown of the show a couple hours ago,
and I thought to myself, I should stand up, And
then I read it maybe like an hour forty five
minutes ago, go I should stand up?
Speaker 3 (07:22):
And did I?
Speaker 2 (07:23):
No?
Speaker 1 (07:23):
No, it's too easy. How many times if we'd done
the story about sitting is spreading and it's bad for you?
A million? Do I stand up? No? You know why?
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Yes? Why?
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Because sitting is comfortable. It's easier to scroll on my
phone when I'm sitting.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
It's hard to get that thing up off the chair.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Oh that was unnecessary. Why are you all laughing? Mark
Runners laughing? I saw you laughing?
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Mark said a word.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
The hell with all of you.
Speaker 3 (08:02):

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Tyler glassnow avoids the il thankfully.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
That was scary.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Well, well, he has like a back issue, right, but
he's had it for a few years. He's had it
since high school. So it was just kind of acting out.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
Okay, yeah, because the way they made it look yesterday
we were watching the game was on here looks like
it was his hand.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Yeah, uh, whole situation there. But he's Okay, that's good.
Giants fall furthest below five hundred since twenty nineteen. Jesus,
Mary and Joseph. Not pretty, not good, not good.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Guys, can't do it.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
I feel bad for Bay Area sports fans because the
Warriors were awful and now the Giants are awful.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
They's aren't great. I mean they're extended bay Area perhaps, but.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
It's too bad. It's time for football season to start.
I think, I think so I have something to yell about.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
What does this make you feel? Feel good?
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Feel feels real warm?
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Do it now?
Speaker 1 (10:13):
You're just two? It is, but it makes my heart
feel good.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Believable.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Man, it makes no sense. He got five yards.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Everybody's touchy, touchy, touchy feel on his assy, assy ass.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
You sneak, and I don't like you. Cannot play with him,
cannot win with him, cannot coach with him.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Can't do it.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
I yes, I do too, Mike.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
It's time for swamp watch. I'm a politician, which means
I'm a cheat and a liar. And when I'm not
kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipop. Here we got.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
The real problem is that our leaders are dumb.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
The other side never quit what.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
I'm not going anywhere, so that now you train the squaw, I.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Can imagine what can be and be unburdened.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
By what has been. You know, Americans have always been gone.
They're not stupid.
Speaker 7 (11:13):
A political flunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Why have the people voted for you? With not swap watch?
They're all count of knowing.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
President Trump is going to welcome the president of Brazil
to the White House today.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I'm still waiting for that to happen.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
We were expecting them to do some questions from reporters.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
We haven't seen that yet. Necessarily.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
We are also waiting for some response from Iran uh
to the latest American proposal to end the war. There
were some public messages back and forth suggesting a bunch
of behind the scenes diplomatic activity, but we haven't necessarily
seen much of it.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Yeah, good Shah, and now we're doing well.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
Now we have to.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Get what we have to get.
Speaker 5 (11:57):
If we don't do that, we'll have to go a
big except further.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
But with that being said, they want to make a deal.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
We've had very good talks over the last twenty four
hours that it's very possible that we'll make a deal.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
The White House Correspondence dinners. Suspects the shooting suspect Cole Allen.
There's a new intelligence report that came out from the
Department of Homeland Security that suggested that he had multiple
social and political grievances with the Trump administration and said
that the conflict with Iran may have been the thing
that contributed to his decision to conduct the attack. They
(12:35):
called this a critical incident. Note suspect criticized American actions
in the war in several social media posts, among others
that obviously they combed through after the actual shooting. Well, yes,
after the shooting took place. At that White House Correspondence dinner,
Marco Rubio and Pope Leo they got together.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
They got together then to discuss this is a situation
in the Middle East and other matters. He is a
devout Catholic. So what a cool thing for Marco Rubio
to get to do. I mean, it doesn't get better.
You're elected secretary of state or elected your name secretary
of state. That's cool to take home to the parents, right,
(13:20):
But if you're a Catholic and you take home the
picture of you and the Pope, ugh, that's like you
and that's the best. That's the best way to go
through life. If you get a picture with the Pope.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
It's got to be an awkward conversation though, between the
Pope and the Secretary of State.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Well, they're going to keep it, you know, diplomatic and civil.
I would imagine, Oh.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
Yeah, I'm not that they would bring it up, but
there would obviously be the stink in the room that
exists because of the way that President Trump had gone
after the Pope and vice versa.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Yeah, but Marco Rubio isn't Trump.
Speaker 4 (13:54):
Did you see him, by the way, he just a
couple of days ago stood in front of the White
House press rostrum.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Rostrum, that's a good word.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Podium sounds like something I want to shoot out back.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
You got ross in your or.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
I should say, Chad Bianca wants to shoot out back.
Something that should be shut out back or could be
shot out back.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
There's something going on with Marco Rubio where it's almost
like you see somebody that you haven't seen since high
school and then you go, oh.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
My gosh, I didn't I didn't know you could speak.
I didn't know you were smart. I didn't know that
you were pretty I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
All of those things.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
He has got a lot going on right now, he
does and multiple jobs, and he's got the biggest, big,
biggest business card in the administration.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
He is my pick for the Republicans for twenty twenty eight.
I think he outshines jd Vance. I think I'm not
even going to give oxygen to Trump's son having a.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Shot at that point. My daughter, don't forget.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
I don't think she would want it. Ivanka, I don't
think she would want it. But Marco Rubio, I mean,
Scott All, he checks all the boxes. He's not a buffoon.
I mean, you can disagree with him, you can hate
everything he stands for, but he's not a clown person.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
R communicates.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Well, that's why I say, got the experience.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Stand in front of that podium. He was able to
answer very specific questions in a very well thought out way.
So he's Uh, if you had to get.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Marco Rubio and Gavin Newsome, that would well mud rustling
what I don't know, what.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Do you what kind of weird stuff?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Well, they both fancy themselves as lookers, don't they.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
I don't know if Marco Rubio believes in it. Believes
in his own looks as much as Gavin Newsom. I
don't know anybody who believes in his own looks the
way Kevin Well.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
It's insecurity. Marco Rubio is not insecure, so there's a
difference there.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
He doesn't have to worry about it.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Yeah, maybe it's a good talk talk I think. So, Okay,
we're going to talk and try and get me to
stand up more. Move around. You're like, you're like, my dude,
bit You're.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Like, you move thing next in a couple segments.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
But the Google story, all those things that people search
for when no one is looking, is it's actually foot stuff.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Now it's actually better than you think. Oh yeah, okay.
Speaker 5 (16:16):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Do you have a quick update.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
I mentioned that President Trump is supposed to be meeting
with the President of Brazil today. Apparently they met, but
the press conference that was scheduled before the meeting was
subsequently postponed until after they spoke to each other. Well,
they spoke to each other, and now the whole thing
(16:46):
has been called off. And there is video of a
whole group of Brazilian members of the media leaving the
White House. So something didn't go well, but we don't
know exactly what it was. But they have canceled what
was supposed to be the news conference between the President
of the United States and the President of Brazil. So
(17:10):
there's a data editor at Google, Simon Rodgers, and he
said he spends his days looking at the world's largest
publicly available data set. He said, to me, it's the
world's brain represented in data. This is a weird maybe
connection to the TV show Pluribus, perhaps providing a unique
window on what people have been thinking about for the
(17:30):
last two decades. And he said, it's unfailingly honest. The
way we search collectively is not the way we present
ourselves on social media. There's no such thing as a
dumb question, because again, it would be questions that you
would ask when no one else is around, no one
is looking potentially So he said that three of the
most revealing questions that people ask and what sort of
(17:52):
insights he says he gets into who they are based
on what they're asking. And the very first one is
how to boil an egg.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
If you look at the most asked questions of all time,
you would think they would be complex questions metaphysical queries.
Even while what is love does make up the top ten,
which is shocking, it is overwhelmingly the list dominated by
the mundane. Like you said, how to boil an egg
(18:24):
is consistently one of the top search tao tu questions.
There's also things other basic life skills, I would argue
a little bit more advanced, like how to fix a toilet,
how to fix a door.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
Those are all important things, right, I mean yeah, I
was joking about with my daughter this morning about judging people,
and I said something like, you need to know how
to hammer it, or you need to know how to
hold a hammer. And she said, yes, holding a hammer
would be a would be a baseline qualification for her,
for example, to date somebody. And I said, it's not
(19:01):
just holding the hammer. You got to be able to
drive a sixteen penny nail into a two by four
in two hits or something like that. And she goes, oh,
I just upped my baseline. How do I do that?
And I said, you got to practice?
Speaker 7 (19:13):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Is she seeing somebody?
Speaker 2 (19:15):
I am not at liberty to discuss. We've talked about it.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Yees, Oh, okay, I mean nothing serious, not a big deal. Okay,
but she's gonna make sure he can do that thing
like the hammer and the nail.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Okay, did sound weird, but.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
No, I mean the thing is is like you don't
learn when you're dating if people know what to do
with a hammer in a nail, like you know what
I mean, like basic life skills like that. You don't
know you could date someone for six months and not
know if they could fix a toilet or not or whatever,
(19:48):
any of these life skills like that stuff that can
reveal itself and shock you down the line, like what
they do or don't that they don't like suddenly you
find yourself, you know, like John Cobalt, for example, that
man will run out of a room if he sees
a spider in the corner of a ceiling. Now that's
(20:10):
something that doesn't reveal itself, and you wouldn't profile him
as that guy, but that's who he is, you know.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Would he change his own tire?
Speaker 1 (20:20):
I don't know. That is a good question him.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
One of the next questions that queries that people.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
I don't think just because of triple A and how
easy that is if it doesn't four hundred hours to
get there. But like if he was pressed to change, Like,
can he change a tire? I would say, yes, he's
driving from here, No, driving from here to Phoenix, and
he gets that flat spot. Most people would not change
a tire, Like most people would call Triple A to
(20:52):
change their tire because it exists for a reason. They
could change a tire, but they don't. Would you want
your daughter changing her tire even, you'd want her changing
or tire instead of calling triple A if she's out
on the road.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
That depends on where she is.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
Sure, but but that was one of the first things
I taught her was how to change the time.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Well, sure, we I mean you should learn that if
you have to. But if she's out on a two
lane road and she's got a call and she's got
a flat tire, you don't want her out on the
road changing or tire.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
It's wrong with America that we don't want our daughters changing.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
Well, it's just common sense. She could get hit while
she's changing the tire.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
Like, yes, I don't want her to be sitting in
the middle of the road trying to change it.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
That's why I painted the two lane road picture.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
Okay, the second one was in terms of looking at
our careers and how we shift dramatically over the way
we view our careers.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
They said.
Speaker 4 (21:47):
Trends Google Trends data confirms this on a big scale.
For example, people would ask questions like how to ask
for a raise, or how to ask for feedback at work,
or how to ask for a lot of recommendation. And
for years, one of the top work related searchers or
career related searches was careers that pay well. Now they're saying,
(22:08):
there's a big, huge, profound movement in the way that
people look for a career searches for things like a
job that helps people.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
That's all about the younger generation.
Speaker 4 (22:19):
Yeah, it's totally overtaken jobs that pay well.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
As a star to me, that shows that parents millennials,
I guess they are now that have kids that are
looking for jobs made a good living. If your kids
worried about finding a job that helps people, they've lived
a good life, they're okay, yeah, exactly, and that's great.
That's wonderful that people are looking for things that help people.
(22:43):
I mean, you just did a diatribe about how you
wish that politicians were people that would get in there
because they wanted to help people. Not just look out
for themselves. Right, Yeah, so maybe we are moving towards.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
The right place my political utopia.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah, I still have my fairy wand out here, that's
where that came from.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Hey, where do you go to the pictures? Stop? How
to help?
Speaker 4 (23:06):
The third thing is we're constantly told that the Internet
can bring out the worst in all of us. Talk
about how selfish we are, divided, we are, whatever angry
we are. But there are searches for how to help,
and they said they've never been higher than they are
right now, both the US and the UK. The most
searched query in this category for the last decade has
been how to help someone with depression, followed closely by
(23:31):
how to help someone with anxiety or how to help
somebody with panic attacks?
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Lexipro probably right? Is that the answer?
Speaker 4 (23:36):
I don't know about that, sponsor, but it is the
other part about that is the much more public, the
much more, how much more willing we are to acknowledge
things like that in public. It's no longer taboo to
say things like I suffer from depression, or I was depressed,
or I have anxiety, or I'm anxious about this or that,
(23:57):
And if it is something that needs help. Then that's
how people can can find it. That's how we find
our stuff. We're going to stand up again. We got
one more segment.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Stand up.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Oh man, like that Stephen King book, but instead of
the walk, you're just standing. Oh there's a one on
that too, write the stand. I don't know, I didn't
read it.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
I think that's about standing.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
I feel like I'm in that book right now.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
Big Washington Post article today what sitting all day does
to your body.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
Gary and Shannon will continue.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
I thought we were going to stop. End on a
high note.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
We are. We're higher than we were ten minutes ago.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
A M six forty.
Speaker 4 (24:41):
Because it's not a surprise anymore, and it's highly unsurprising,
but it is a big announcement.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
It is not surprising, but many you're new to the
show and you don't know that we do this.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
We have new people, new people. I mean, look at
the entire city of Menafee.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
You know what, Menafie holds a real special place in
my heart. After after what we uh, after what we saw,
after what we saw, Yeah, that was really cool. Absolutely
like I think we should go back every year to
make it a regular thing.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Yeah, I want to go to Menifee.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Yeah, Elmer wants to go to Menafite.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
We gotta get you.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
I was like, okay, Menufite.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Yeah, and it was worth it. It was all the
hype panned.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Out that mayor too. He's not a pretty far.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
All that mayor many if that guy never mind, but
he's Uh, he is a character.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
Making those hits, those country hits.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
Yeah, and he's he's performing at a new discamp.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
So easy to read.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Sitting is the new smoking, even if you exercise.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
We've done this story a million times.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
You need to remind ourselves all the time, a lot
of sedendary times.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
I just say that because I don't want to hear it.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
Shorter lifespan, higher rates of death from heart disease. How
much sitting is too much can vary by study, but
it looks like more than eight to ten hours per day.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Do you sit for more than this?
Speaker 1 (26:05):
I have a question, what if you're not sitting but
you're laying, Like what if I go home in the
middle of the day and I get into bed and
I lay in bed for hours? Is that cool?
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Is that Okay? I don't know the difference. See.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Actually, well, I feel like this is a loophole. I
feel like bed rotting is a loophole around the whole.
Sitting will kill you science.
Speaker 4 (26:29):
Let me say this specifically to my wife. Sitting for
ten hours a day once in a while isn't the
end of the world.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Why are you saying this to your wife because she's driving.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
Oh, but they look at sedentary behavior over the course
of years. When sitting all day becomes regular, when it's habitual,
how far is that drive? It can be also tied
to a higher risk of cancer, type two diabetes, osteoporosis, depression,
cognitive impairmly, how far is.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
That drive to Chico?
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Oh, she's just going to Chico h seven hour something
like that.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
So how do you how do you do this? How
do you combat the effects of sitting? We'll clearly end
up dummy?
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Why are there papers written about this?
Speaker 4 (27:11):
If your job is sedentary, make sure that your weekend isn't.
So don't just become a port a port a portion
of your couch on weekends.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
But I've earned it, Listen, I mean, I'm not gonna
I have I haven't, But I'm talking for the man
or the woman who's on her feet all day long,
whether you're doing hair, or you're teaching, or you're running
the kids around. Don't you earn a little sitting time
on the weekend.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
I think so, but but it doesn't have to be
eight hours of sitting. It can be depending on what
you're watching on TV.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
I assume not that there is time to sit on
the weekend. Those people would argue.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Start exercising regularly.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
Don't time a year. I feel like everyone's got ninety
seven activities for the kids that are all on the
same day at this time of year.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Yeah, it's the best.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
It's like, I'm exhausted by reading people's Instagram stories of
like what they did with you. We got sheer competition
at five, We've got you know, choir tryouts, We've got this,
We've got college visits, We've got I'm like, wow, and
I'm looking at all this sitting down.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
They say, change your position frequently. The fix isn't necessarily
standing all day, but because standing too long can lead
to back pain and cause of blood to pool in
your legs, which can't be good for you, but can
also be helpful way to interrupt longer periods of sitting.
Don't sit all day, don't stand all day, don't.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Move all day. It's just a little bit of each
of them.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Mark, what do you do when you don't want to
sit down anymore?
Speaker 2 (28:48):
I try to remain seated as much as possible, And
I think we should advocate for working lying down. If
our employers cared about us, they would make that easier
to do. Well, make the back on that chair le
easier to flop down.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
Or put a cot in the news boo, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
There's room on the other side of that console. I've
seen that.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
I understand that our bodies were not meant to sit.
That was not what if we.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
Weren't meant to sit, we wouldn't hinge at the hip.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
That's that's my for movement, not sitting. That's for picking
things up out in the fields.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Yeah, like picking up the remote while you sit down.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
But lying down, I would argue, is okay. You don't
see a lot of studies that say bedrot will kill you,
So go get in that bed at two o'clock in
the afternoon, enjoy yourself. Sit lie there, take a nap.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
Finish up the Monks and Merril Show, make your way
through John all the way through through Conway and then
you don't have to like leave your room.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
Boom.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
That's just like saying like Buddy or pal or MF.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Or turn people.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
It's exactactly like what we are, the Wally people homework.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Welcome to America.
Speaker 4 (30:06):

the show coming up. We got our nine news nugget.

Just so excited you are excited.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
I want to know what it is you do.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Yeah, we can't tell everybody.
Speaker 4 (00:43):
Elmer does, Gary, Chris SIV you'd tell everybody we gave
you the secret, and just I would?
Speaker 3 (00:49):
I would.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Do you think that Gary's American flag bikini is a hint? Oh?
Speaker 3 (00:57):
I hope so you said that.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Wow, Please don't ever speak like that again.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
He can appreciate you in a bikini without wanting that.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Yeah. No, not like that, Gary, Right, I can appreciate patriotism.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
I can appreciate a female in a bikini. Why can't
I appreciate you in a bikini?
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Yeah, you're filling up all the right spots.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
This is a liberty for all, not just some. You're
filling out all the right spot.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Else is going on? Time four? What's happening?
Speaker 5 (01:33):
Well?
Speaker 4 (01:34):
Last night was the last debate for the candidates for
governor before the primary, the primary, of course June second.
A lot of people already have their ballots in their hands,
so those decisions shall be made soon. June second, of course,
like I said, is the is the primary. There is
another mayor's debate coming up next week. However, as of
(01:59):
right now, the Fox LA write up about their own
their own debate coming up at the Pat Brown Institute
for Public Affairs is that Spencer Pratt is not part
of it. The list of scheduled lists of participants includes
Mayor Bass and Nithie Rahman, but also Ray Wang, pastor
(02:22):
and housing advocate, and Adam Miller, entrepreneur and nonprofit founder.
This will be next Wednesday, May thirteenth, coming up at
six o'clock.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
I think you're right as they get further into these
debates are going to get more granular. And I don't
think Spencer Pratt has anything to gain by going to
these His ground is all made up on TikTok. His
ground is all made up through his viral videos. It's
not made up through policy points.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
I am. I do have a I will say this,
I do have a problem his.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Ads that have been put out, these videos that are
out there on social media are pretty amazing. But I
do not like necessarily the use of AI to just
that's a bothersome part to me. But everything else about
them is great.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Speaking of MacArthur Park, two people suspected of being the
main suppliers of fentanyl and meth have been arrested. Federal
officials rounded up more than a dozen officials linked to
an open air drug market. There, eighteen of twenty five
people facing federal drug traffic charges.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
This was Assistant US Attorney Bill of sale yesterday.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
We're here today because California policies have failed. The policies
of California to just let people use drugs open and
notoriously with little to know criminal consequences is a failed experiment.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Just looking at the footage of what these agents had
to deal with just yesterday, not a compilation of things
that have gone over the last thirty days or ninety days,
but just yesterday. The number of people that were hunched
over MacArthur Park in that fentanyl fold or the overdosed
people on the ground that they were trying to resuscitate,
(04:07):
is on just a random Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
New forecasts say one of the most powerful El Nino
events ever recorded could form in the coming months. For
several months, forecasters have been predicting this possible super El Nino.
I remember us talking about it that could emerge and
persist through the end of this year. This is because
of warmer than usual sea service tempts in the Pacific Nino.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Marco Rubio met with the Pope today talk about the
Middle East. Secretary of State met with His Holiness Pope
Leo this Excivy fourteenth to discuss the situation in.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
The Middle East.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Discounting all the leos.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
No, I was trying to remember my Roman numerals.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Oh, I thought you were going through all the popes.
I thought you had had somehow where picked up an
extensive knowledge of the history of popes, like the number
for pie. Suddenly you just had all of them in
your in your rolodex erap. In the mental there was
the first.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Pope leo, and then the second one, right, and then
the next one, the next one, the next one, the
next one, the next one, the next one, the next one,
the next one, the next one, the next one, the
next one, and now this one.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Yeah, so you do sounds good because you can make
it past three point one?
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Four?
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Can't you?
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Two?
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Or the next three?
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Boom boom everybody.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
Hey, do not get the haunt of virus. It sounds
like it's pretty awful.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
And the first phases usually flew like it would be fever.
Speaker 7 (05:33):
Chills, really bad muscle aches, particularly in the back muscles,
and your whole body.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Myself, I gets the reason I'm doing it. After that,
I hate illness.
Speaker 7 (05:44):
The way that this virus it become serious. The lining
of the blood vesters, and it makes the blood vessels leaky,
so that if the vessels and the lungs leak, fluid
can fill into the lungs, causing respiratory failure. As I
see you l treatment, they need to be put into
ice and used, get to the hospital leaders and then
with good supportive care, they can often get better, but
(06:06):
it does still carry a relatively high mortality.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Right he Yeah, I'm going to go to yoga this
afternoon and by tomorrow I'll be an urgent care with
leaky vessels and they'll look at me like I'm crazy
and all your fault.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Health authorities have identified this Andy's strain of hantavirus in
those passengers, so they have confirmed it was that Andy's strain.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
See it's rough because it's allergy season two right.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
Yes, Like it's just the tiniest little itch and you've
got hantavirus. Now, they are trying to track down everybody,
by the way, who was on this ship, and they've
said several people got off. The ship went to Johannesburg,
South Africa, and then flew to other parts around the world,
including a couple of people here in the United That excellent.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Hey, don't forget coming up. We do have the three
most revealing questions people ask when no one's looking, somebody
who studied data at Google is talking. And it's pretty
funny with those questions.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
Also, we should probably stand up when we do the story,
right Why why sitting is quietly wrecking us?
Speaker 1 (07:07):
So it's funny. I read that that headline. I saw
it in the rundown of the show a couple hours ago,
and I thought to myself, I should stand up, And
then I read it maybe like an hour forty five
minutes ago, go I should stand up?
Speaker 3 (07:22):
And did I?
Speaker 2 (07:23):
No?
Speaker 1 (07:23):
No, it's too easy. How many times if we'd done
the story about sitting is spreading and it's bad for you?
A million? Do I stand up? No? You know why?
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Yes? Why?
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Because sitting is comfortable. It's easier to scroll on my
phone when I'm sitting.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
It's hard to get that thing up off the chair.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Oh that was unnecessary. Why are you all laughing? Mark
Runners laughing? I saw you laughing?
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Mark said a word.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
The hell with all of you.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Your caboose is your own business.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Ouch, I'm not gonna man.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Yeah, you're done. You're done for the day, sir.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Tyler glassnow avoids the il thankfully.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
That was scary.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Well, well, he has like a back issue, right, but
he's had it for a few years. He's had it
since high school. So it was just kind of acting out.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
Okay, yeah, because the way they made it look yesterday
we were watching the game was on here looks like
it was his hand.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Yeah, uh, whole situation there. But he's Okay, that's good.
Giants fall furthest below five hundred since twenty nineteen. Jesus,
Mary and Joseph. Not pretty, not good, not good.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Guys, can't do it.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
I feel bad for Bay Area sports fans because the
Warriors were awful and now the Giants are awful.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
They's aren't great. I mean they're extended bay Area perhaps, but.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
It's too bad. It's time for football season to start.
I think, I think so I have something to yell about.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
What does this make you feel? Feel good?
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Feel feels real warm?
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Do it now?
Speaker 1 (10:13):
You're just two? It is, but it makes my heart
feel good.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
Believable.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Man, it makes no sense. He got five yards.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Everybody's touchy, touchy, touchy feel on his assy, assy ass.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
You sneak, and I don't like you. Cannot play with him,
cannot win with him, cannot coach with him.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Can't do it.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
I yes, I do too, Mike.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
It's time for swamp watch. I'm a politician, which means
I'm a cheat and a liar. And when I'm not
kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipop. Here we got.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
The real problem is that our leaders are dumb.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
The other side never quit what.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
I'm not going anywhere, so that now you train the squaw, I.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Can imagine what can be and be unburdened.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
By what has been. You know, Americans have always been gone.
They're not stupid.
Speaker 7 (11:13):
A political flunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Why have the people voted for you? With not swap watch?
They're all count of knowing.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
President Trump is going to welcome the president of Brazil
to the White House today.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I'm still waiting for that to happen.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
We were expecting them to do some questions from reporters.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
We haven't seen that yet. Necessarily.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
We are also waiting for some response from Iran uh
to the latest American proposal to end the war. There
were some public messages back and forth suggesting a bunch
of behind the scenes diplomatic activity, but we haven't necessarily
seen much of it.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Yeah, good Shah, and now we're doing well.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
Now we have to.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Get what we have to get.
Speaker 5 (11:57):
If we don't do that, we'll have to go a
big except further.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
But with that being said, they want to make a deal.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
We've had very good talks over the last twenty four
hours that it's very possible that we'll make a deal.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
The White House Correspondence dinners. Suspects the shooting suspect Cole Allen.
There's a new intelligence report that came out from the
Department of Homeland Security that suggested that he had multiple
social and political grievances with the Trump administration and said
that the conflict with Iran may have been the thing
that contributed to his decision to conduct the attack. They
(12:35):
called this a critical incident. Note suspect criticized American actions
in the war in several social media posts, among others
that obviously they combed through after the actual shooting. Well, yes,
after the shooting took place. At that White House Correspondence dinner,
Marco Rubio and Pope Leo they got together.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
They got together then to discuss this is a situation
in the Middle East and other matters. He is a
devout Catholic. So what a cool thing for Marco Rubio
to get to do. I mean, it doesn't get better.
You're elected secretary of state or elected your name secretary
of state. That's cool to take home to the parents, right,
(13:20):
But if you're a Catholic and you take home the
picture of you and the Pope, ugh, that's like you
and that's the best. That's the best way to go
through life. If you get a picture with the Pope.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
It's got to be an awkward conversation though, between the
Pope and the Secretary of State.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Well, they're going to keep it, you know, diplomatic and civil.
I would imagine, Oh.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
Yeah, I'm not that they would bring it up, but
there would obviously be the stink in the room that
exists because of the way that President Trump had gone
after the Pope and vice versa.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Yeah, but Marco Rubio isn't Trump.
Speaker 4 (13:54):
Did you see him, by the way, he just a
couple of days ago stood in front of the White
House press rostrum.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Rostrum, that's a good word.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Podium sounds like something I want to shoot out back.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
You got ross in your or.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
I should say, Chad Bianca wants to shoot out back.
Something that should be shut out back or could be
shot out back.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
There's something going on with Marco Rubio where it's almost
like you see somebody that you haven't seen since high
school and then you go, oh.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
My gosh, I didn't I didn't know you could speak.
I didn't know you were smart. I didn't know that
you were pretty I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
All of those things.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
He has got a lot going on right now, he
does and multiple jobs, and he's got the biggest, big,
biggest business card in the administration.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
He is my pick for the Republicans for twenty twenty eight.
I think he outshines jd Vance. I think I'm not
even going to give oxygen to Trump's son having a.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Shot at that point. My daughter, don't forget.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
I don't think she would want it. Ivanka, I don't
think she would want it. But Marco Rubio, I mean,
Scott All, he checks all the boxes. He's not a buffoon.
I mean, you can disagree with him, you can hate
everything he stands for, but he's not a clown person.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
R communicates.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Well, that's why I say, got the experience.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Stand in front of that podium. He was able to
answer very specific questions in a very well thought out way.
So he's Uh, if you had to get.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Marco Rubio and Gavin Newsome, that would well mud rustling
what I don't know, what.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Do you what kind of weird stuff?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Well, they both fancy themselves as lookers, don't they.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
I don't know if Marco Rubio believes in it. Believes
in his own looks as much as Gavin Newsom. I
don't know anybody who believes in his own looks the
way Kevin Well.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
It's insecurity. Marco Rubio is not insecure, so there's a
difference there.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
He doesn't have to worry about it.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Yeah, maybe it's a good talk talk I think. So, Okay,
we're going to talk and try and get me to
stand up more. Move around. You're like, you're like, my dude,
bit You're.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Like, you move thing next in a couple segments.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
But the Google story, all those things that people search
for when no one is looking, is it's actually foot stuff.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Now it's actually better than you think. Oh yeah, okay.
Speaker 5 (16:16):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Do you have a quick update.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
I mentioned that President Trump is supposed to be meeting
with the President of Brazil today. Apparently they met, but
the press conference that was scheduled before the meeting was
subsequently postponed until after they spoke to each other. Well,
they spoke to each other, and now the whole thing
(16:46):
has been called off. And there is video of a
whole group of Brazilian members of the media leaving the
White House. So something didn't go well, but we don't
know exactly what it was. But they have canceled what
was supposed to be the news conference between the President
of the United States and the President of Brazil. So
(17:10):
there's a data editor at Google, Simon Rodgers, and he
said he spends his days looking at the world's largest
publicly available data set. He said, to me, it's the
world's brain represented in data. This is a weird maybe
connection to the TV show Pluribus, perhaps providing a unique
window on what people have been thinking about for the
(17:30):
last two decades. And he said, it's unfailingly honest. The
way we search collectively is not the way we present
ourselves on social media. There's no such thing as a
dumb question, because again, it would be questions that you
would ask when no one else is around, no one
is looking potentially So he said that three of the
most revealing questions that people ask and what sort of
(17:52):
insights he says he gets into who they are based
on what they're asking. And the very first one is
how to boil an egg.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
If you look at the most asked questions of all time,
you would think they would be complex questions metaphysical queries.
Even while what is love does make up the top ten,
which is shocking, it is overwhelmingly the list dominated by
the mundane. Like you said, how to boil an egg
(18:24):
is consistently one of the top search tao tu questions.
There's also things other basic life skills, I would argue
a little bit more advanced, like how to fix a toilet,
how to fix a door.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
Those are all important things, right, I mean yeah, I
was joking about with my daughter this morning about judging people,
and I said something like, you need to know how
to hammer it, or you need to know how to
hold a hammer. And she said, yes, holding a hammer
would be a would be a baseline qualification for her,
for example, to date somebody. And I said, it's not
(19:01):
just holding the hammer. You got to be able to
drive a sixteen penny nail into a two by four
in two hits or something like that. And she goes, oh,
I just upped my baseline. How do I do that?
And I said, you got to practice?
Speaker 7 (19:13):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Is she seeing somebody?
Speaker 2 (19:15):
I am not at liberty to discuss. We've talked about it.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Yees, Oh, okay, I mean nothing serious, not a big deal. Okay,
but she's gonna make sure he can do that thing
like the hammer and the nail.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Okay, did sound weird, but.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
No, I mean the thing is is like you don't
learn when you're dating if people know what to do
with a hammer in a nail, like you know what
I mean, like basic life skills like that. You don't
know you could date someone for six months and not
know if they could fix a toilet or not or whatever,
(19:48):
any of these life skills like that stuff that can
reveal itself and shock you down the line, like what
they do or don't that they don't like suddenly you
find yourself, you know, like John Cobalt, for example, that
man will run out of a room if he sees
a spider in the corner of a ceiling. Now that's
(20:10):
something that doesn't reveal itself, and you wouldn't profile him
as that guy, but that's who he is, you know.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Would he change his own tire?
Speaker 1 (20:20):
I don't know. That is a good question him.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
One of the next questions that queries that people.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
I don't think just because of triple A and how
easy that is if it doesn't four hundred hours to
get there. But like if he was pressed to change, Like,
can he change a tire? I would say, yes, he's
driving from here, No, driving from here to Phoenix, and
he gets that flat spot. Most people would not change
a tire, Like most people would call Triple A to
(20:52):
change their tire because it exists for a reason. They
could change a tire, but they don't. Would you want
your daughter changing her tire even, you'd want her changing
or tire instead of calling triple A if she's out
on the road.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
That depends on where she is.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
Sure, but but that was one of the first things
I taught her was how to change the time.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Well, sure, we I mean you should learn that if
you have to. But if she's out on a two
lane road and she's got a call and she's got
a flat tire, you don't want her out on the
road changing or tire.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
It's wrong with America that we don't want our daughters changing.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
Well, it's just common sense. She could get hit while
she's changing the tire.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
Like, yes, I don't want her to be sitting in
the middle of the road trying to change it.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
That's why I painted the two lane road picture.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
Okay, the second one was in terms of looking at
our careers and how we shift dramatically over the way
we view our careers.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
They said.
Speaker 4 (21:47):
Trends Google Trends data confirms this on a big scale.
For example, people would ask questions like how to ask
for a raise, or how to ask for feedback at work,
or how to ask for a lot of recommendation. And
for years, one of the top work related searchers or
career related searches was careers that pay well. Now they're saying,
(22:08):
there's a big, huge, profound movement in the way that
people look for a career searches for things like a
job that helps people.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
That's all about the younger generation.
Speaker 4 (22:19):
Yeah, it's totally overtaken jobs that pay well.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
As a star to me, that shows that parents millennials,
I guess they are now that have kids that are
looking for jobs made a good living. If your kids
worried about finding a job that helps people, they've lived
a good life, they're okay, yeah, exactly, and that's great.
That's wonderful that people are looking for things that help people.
(22:43):
I mean, you just did a diatribe about how you
wish that politicians were people that would get in there
because they wanted to help people. Not just look out
for themselves. Right, Yeah, so maybe we are moving towards.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
The right place my political utopia.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah, I still have my fairy wand out here, that's
where that came from.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Hey, where do you go to the pictures? Stop? How
to help?
Speaker 4 (23:06):
The third thing is we're constantly told that the Internet
can bring out the worst in all of us. Talk
about how selfish we are, divided, we are, whatever angry
we are. But there are searches for how to help,
and they said they've never been higher than they are
right now, both the US and the UK. The most
searched query in this category for the last decade has
been how to help someone with depression, followed closely by
(23:31):
how to help someone with anxiety or how to help
somebody with panic attacks?
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Lexipro probably right? Is that the answer?
Speaker 4 (23:36):
I don't know about that, sponsor, but it is the
other part about that is the much more public, the
much more, how much more willing we are to acknowledge
things like that in public. It's no longer taboo to
say things like I suffer from depression, or I was depressed,
or I have anxiety, or I'm anxious about this or that,
(23:57):
And if it is something that needs help. Then that's
how people can can find it. That's how we find
our stuff. We're going to stand up again. We got
one more segment.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Stand up.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Oh man, like that Stephen King book, but instead of
the walk, you're just standing. Oh there's a one on
that too, write the stand. I don't know, I didn't
read it.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
I think that's about standing.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
I feel like I'm in that book right now.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
Big Washington Post article today what sitting all day does
to your body.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
Gary and Shannon will continue.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
I thought we were going to stop. End on a
high note.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
We are. We're higher than we were ten minutes ago.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
A M six forty.
Speaker 4 (24:41):
Because it's not a surprise anymore, and it's highly unsurprising,
but it is a big announcement.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
It is not surprising, but many you're new to the
show and you don't know that we do this.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
We have new people, new people. I mean, look at
the entire city of Menafee.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
You know what, Menafie holds a real special place in
my heart. After after what we uh, after what we saw,
after what we saw, Yeah, that was really cool. Absolutely
like I think we should go back every year to
make it a regular thing.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Yeah, I want to go to Menifee.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Yeah, Elmer wants to go to Menafite.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
We gotta get you.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
I was like, okay, Menufite.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
Yeah, and it was worth it. It was all the
hype panned.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
Out that mayor too. He's not a pretty far.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
All that mayor many if that guy never mind, but
he's Uh, he is a character.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
Making those hits, those country hits.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
Yeah, and he's he's performing at a new discamp.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
So easy to read.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Sitting is the new smoking, even if you exercise.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
We've done this story a million times.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
You need to remind ourselves all the time, a lot
of sedendary times.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
I just say that because I don't want to hear it.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
Shorter lifespan, higher rates of death from heart disease. How
much sitting is too much can vary by study, but
it looks like more than eight to ten hours per day.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Do you sit for more than this?
Speaker 1 (26:05):
I have a question, what if you're not sitting but
you're laying, Like what if I go home in the
middle of the day and I get into bed and
I lay in bed for hours? Is that cool?
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Is that Okay? I don't know the difference. See.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Actually, well, I feel like this is a loophole. I
feel like bed rotting is a loophole around the whole.
Sitting will kill you science.
Speaker 4 (26:29):
Let me say this specifically to my wife. Sitting for
ten hours a day once in a while isn't the
end of the world.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Why are you saying this to your wife because she's driving.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
Oh, but they look at sedentary behavior over the course
of years. When sitting all day becomes regular, when it's habitual,
how far is that drive? It can be also tied
to a higher risk of cancer, type two diabetes, osteoporosis, depression,
cognitive impairmly, how far is.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
That drive to Chico?
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Oh, she's just going to Chico h seven hour something
like that.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
So how do you how do you do this? How
do you combat the effects of sitting? We'll clearly end
up dummy?
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Why are there papers written about this?
Speaker 4 (27:11):
If your job is sedentary, make sure that your weekend isn't.
So don't just become a port a port a portion
of your couch on weekends.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
But I've earned it, Listen, I mean, I'm not gonna
I have I haven't, But I'm talking for the man
or the woman who's on her feet all day long,
whether you're doing hair, or you're teaching, or you're running
the kids around. Don't you earn a little sitting time
on the weekend.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
I think so, but but it doesn't have to be
eight hours of sitting. It can be depending on what
you're watching on TV.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
I assume not that there is time to sit on
the weekend. Those people would argue.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Start exercising regularly.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
Don't time a year. I feel like everyone's got ninety
seven activities for the kids that are all on the
same day at this time of year.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Yeah, it's the best.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
It's like, I'm exhausted by reading people's Instagram stories of
like what they did with you. We got sheer competition
at five, We've got you know, choir tryouts, We've got this,
We've got college visits, We've got I'm like, wow, and
I'm looking at all this sitting down.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
They say, change your position frequently. The fix isn't necessarily
standing all day, but because standing too long can lead
to back pain and cause of blood to pool in
your legs, which can't be good for you, but can
also be helpful way to interrupt longer periods of sitting.
Don't sit all day, don't stand all day, don't.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Move all day. It's just a little bit of each
of them.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Mark, what do you do when you don't want to
sit down anymore?
Speaker 2 (28:48):
I try to remain seated as much as possible, And
I think we should advocate for working lying down. If
our employers cared about us, they would make that easier
to do. Well, make the back on that chair le
easier to flop down.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
Or put a cot in the news boo, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
There's room on the other side of that console. I've
seen that.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
I understand that our bodies were not meant to sit.
That was not what if we.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
Weren't meant to sit, we wouldn't hinge at the hip.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
That's that's my for movement, not sitting. That's for picking
things up out in the fields.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Yeah, like picking up the remote while you sit down.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
But lying down, I would argue, is okay. You don't
see a lot of studies that say bedrot will kill you,
So go get in that bed at two o'clock in
the afternoon, enjoy yourself. Sit lie there, take a nap.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
Finish up the Monks and Merril Show, make your way
through John all the way through through Conway and then
you don't have to like leave your room.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
Boom.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
That's just like saying like Buddy or pal or MF.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Or turn people.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
It's exactactly like what we are, the Wally people homework.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Welcome to America.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
All right, Tomorrow Big Friday. We got an announcement for
the show coming up. We got our nine news nugget.
