Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
In the meantime, what else is going on?
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Time for What's Happening?
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Wow? What's Happening? Brought to you my Trajan Wealth.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Trajan Wealth will help you set and achieve your financial
goals for retirement your local trusted financial fiduciary. Trajanwealth dot
Com mentioned this earlier. A story that developed over the weekend.
A man from Tarzana, The guy who was due on
trial of killing his wife and her parents has by
(00:40):
all accounts, been killed in custody, killed himself in custody.
His name was Sam Haskell. He was due in court today.
He was accused of murdering his thirty seven year old wife,
may Lee and her parents and then you know, cutting
up their bodies and tossing the dismembered parts into a
(01:01):
trash bin in Encino. Those human remains were later discovered,
but there was other parts that he loaded into big
trash bags and then hired day labors to come clear
them out. The day laborers looked in the bags and said,
we've got a problem here called nine to one one
(01:21):
and phone this thing in. And you just wonder if
he hired day labors hoping that they wouldn't call the
police because they're afraid or something.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Anyway, it happened a couple of years ago.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
He lived there in Tarzana with his wife, their three kids,
and the parents. The thing that made this more notable
even so, is that his dad is an Emmy winning producer,
a big time Hollywood agent called Kathy Lee Gifford, Whippy
Goldberg clients, Dolly Parton, excuse me, George Clooney as what
(01:54):
Clooney see? This is what happens when I don't eat,
I can't talk. My brain shuts off. I'm being very
dramatic about this fasting thing, getting blood work done this afternoon.
I haven't eaten anything, and it's just shutting down. It's
actually shutting down, to which I would also say, I
can't talk at this time of day, any day of
(02:15):
the week, food or not.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Anyway, So this guy there will be no trial.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Don't know if he was going to plead out today
or what if this was going to go to trial,
but you just you prayers up for those three little kids.
Three young children were left behind, and you wonder, if
you killed himself, why didn't you just start off that way?
Why not save us all of that? Why not save
those three kids the loss of their mother?
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Good Lord?
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Orange County residents are dealing with some significant trash collection
delays uh oh Anaheim, Brea, Guarding Grove, Fullerton, Huntington Beach. Listen,
if it's impacting you, you know who you are. Apparently
there is a strike on the East coasts that we've
talked about. I believe it's affecting Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
I'm not sure. I don't remember, but.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
There are services workers here that are honoring that East
Coast strike and their colleagues by not going to work here.
The strike began January first, four hundred sanitation workers walked
off the job. So the cities like Guarding, Grow, Fullerton,
and HB are using temporary drop off locations where you
(03:30):
can take your trash because that thing starts accumulating and
things don't smell great more. Flood threats have hindered the
searches for the victims of the July fourth flooding in
Central Texas. Emergency crews had to temporarily suspend their operations
there because of the renewed flood threat. Like things couldn't
(03:53):
get worse, so we'll stay on top of that.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
So far, so good. They're awful story.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
I didn't want to spend any time on nine people killed,
dozens hospitalized after that fire at the assisted living facility
in Massachusetts. Nothing really to say about that other than
just awful. We've got the FDA approving a new blued
food dye, okay, because there's like a war on food
(04:22):
dies right now, and I'm telling you I'm going to
start stockpiling Eminem's because I'll roll the dice. I understand,
we don't need the food dies and all of our things.
It's bad for us, it's poisoning the children, and I
get it. But I'm going to keep my Eminem's the
way they are. You know, I had a hard enough
time in nineteen ninety five when they transitioned from the
(04:44):
tan Eminem to the blue Eminem. I don't like it
when people mess with my Eminems and the colors. So
I think I am going to actively start stockpiling Eminem's
if they're going to come for those. So far, the
Eminems have been the roadblock for all of Robert F.
Kennedy Junior's food war games in Washington. They've kind of said,
you're not touching the candy.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
You can do it to the.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Breakfast products or the snack products, but you're not coming
for our candy. So apparently today the US FDA approved
a new blue color additive derived from the fruit of
the gardena. I didn't know that the gardenias made fruit,
but then again, I am not a garden person, and
I know there is a word for that, and that's
how much of a garden person I am not. This
(05:29):
color is a proof for use in sports drinks, a
flavored or the non carbonated waters, the whole bit. So
that's good. It's apparently not the stuff that kills you.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Robert F.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Kennedy Junior is happy about it, So yay for the
Guardina fruits. There is a new study out that says
a number of kids accidentally swallowing zin pouches has gone
up seven hundred and sixty three percent in recent years. Well,
of course, because we didn't have nicotine pouches ten twenty
years ago, did we? I don't think we did. Zin
(06:06):
is everywhere. We see that everywhere, Unlike smoking and vaping,
the nicotine patches like zin are smoke and tobacco free,
but they still contain the nicotine. So our kid's gonna
see a little pellet sized thing and put it in
their mouth.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Of course they are. They'll be fine. We did worse.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Okay, we smoked actual cigarettes when we were children. I'm
not doing this story about the tarantulas smuggled in cake
boxes at the airport. No, how about a new purpose
for feral cats? When Gary comes back, I'm going to
ye know, I'm gonna write that down, a new purpose
(06:50):
for feral cats. When he comes back, I'm gonna say,
you're not taking two week vacations anymore, because on Monday
I heard the phrase come out of my mouth. Giving
feral cats a new purpose. But it is important. Let's
see the volunteers of the oh we're local of the
(07:12):
Burbank Animal Shelter or calling on the community to help
place what they call working cats into barns, backyards, warehouses,
and other non traditional homes.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
These are cats that are mean, little bastards.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
They are not suited for indoor living or human companionship,
but you can put them in your barn. The Barn
Cat program, it's called. They said, these cats can still
find a place to live out their lives with.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Purpose and protection. They're very clear these are not house cats.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
They're perfectly happy to live outside, meaning don't let your
children around these little bastards of cats. Each cat is
bade or neutered, vaccinated, and delivered by volunteers where they
say you got to initially keep the little monsters and
kennels to help them acclimate.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Right, little gremlins is what they are.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Maybe we get maybe we get one of these cats
around here, like a mean ass cat around here, just
to spice things up. We can get a little cage
for it. We could do that, right, I mean, they
don't need to be taken out or anything. We can
there's people here around the clock.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
What does each show have to change the kitty litter?
Speaker 1 (08:27):
I think that's like a like a three times a
week situation, isn't it. What? Yeah, so we could we
could handle it. When I say we, I mean not me,
but somebody around here. Get a mean little cat like
that'd be fun to have a little mean ass cat
as a mascot. Like nothing coddly or cute, but just
a mean little thing doesn't want to have anything to
(08:48):
do with anybody. How do you differentiate cats mean cats
versus non mean cats?
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Like, how is there a difference?
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Don't mean cats like attack you?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Don't all cats like attack you.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
I mean I still have scars for my husband's cats
because he didn't declaw them.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
So those things will leave marks.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Mine doesn't attack me.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Oh, yours doesn't attack you. What's your cat's name?
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Alfie?
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Alfie. That's a good name. That's a good name for
a cat. That's a good one. All right.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
When we come back Japanese walking, I still feel like
this is racist. I don't know why we're calling it
Japanese walking, Like I think that this is just a
style of walking, and I don't know what Japanese has
to do with it. But we'll just continue the racist
Monday that the Washington Boast began with his headline about
Japanese walking.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on Demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
The Washington Post has an article about Japanese walking.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
I feel like this is racist. Is it racist if
it's a positive thing? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Deep thoughts, Deep thoughts. Walking, as we know, is the
way to get in shape. You don't have to be
a marathon runner. You don't have to be a CrossFit
guy girl. You can just walk every day and see
impacts right away from this low impact exercise. It keeps
(10:16):
you healthy, it keeps you feeling good, keeps your mood good, longevity,
all the things walking can do. We know that sitting
is worse than smoking these days. Sitting for eight hours
a day is right up there with smoking all day
according to the science. But anyway, this one particular technique
is known as Japanese walking. I think that this is
(10:41):
just I don't know, interval training interval walking, but it's
going viral on TikTok where everybody thinks they're coming up
with new things.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Nearly twenty years ago, a.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Team led by Hiroshi Knows and other researchers from Japan
published a study that found that middle aged and older
older people who did high intensity interval walking had lower
blood pressure, stronger thigh muscles, better aerobic capacity than walker
is the same age who kept a more moderate, continuous pace.
(11:13):
I had a trainer, like a mister universe. Doug Brignoli
was his name, years ago, God rest his soul, great guy.
And he told me this all those years ago, and
he said If you just get on the treadmill and
you jog at like a five or whatever I was
doing for thirty minutes, you're kind of wasting your time.
(11:38):
If you get on the treadmill and you do like
five sprints, right, and it takes you ten minutes, that's
more than those thirty minutes are going to do. If
you walk and then you sprint and then you walk
in these intervals, that's much better than just sustained low
level activity. And it's the same for walking, according to
these Japanese researchers. In the study, the volunteers did three
(12:01):
minutes of fast walking followed by three minutes at a
slower pace, for thirty minutes per day, four days a week.
One of the most surprising findings was that this style
of walking increased physical fitness and decreased blood pressure after
five months. Those were not improvements found in the moderate
(12:24):
walking group the same amount of time just at a
moderate space. They say that they the interval walking got
its nickname because the study was conducted in Japan.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Ie were not racist, Shannon.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
But they say that this is more popular in Japan
than anywhere else. When I went to Japan Tokyo, I
did notice random middle aged people doing exercises when they
were waiting for the bus or just in an area
where people come agate. Whether it's just like arm circles
(13:03):
or stretching or anything. It was and you and you
don't wonder why everyone's so slim. It's just move your body.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
You know. You don't, like I said, you don't have
to be a marathon runner.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
You don't have to be you know, in your plates
class five days a week.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Just just move around more.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
But the interval training walking, I had never thought of
thought about interval runs that it's always nice to have
a burst of energy like on a jog or something
like that.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
But the walking, what.
Speaker 5 (13:34):
About if you do hills, does that count?
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Sure, that's the best for you. You burn more calories walking
up hill. And it's sneaky too, you don't realize it,
but like that's more than a run. Yeah, it's hard,
It is hard, and it's good for your ass.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Yeah, as miss Patricia says, my ass is too high
and too tight. Said, no one ever always trying to
work on that. Somebody said that to you, my ballet teacher. Yeah,
she does exercises, you know, to keep your butt. Yeah,
you know, so, she says, so, yeah, yeah, she tells
you what you need to hear.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
I haven't stared at your butt, but.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
That it's not great.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
I mean, let me tell you, that's the whole point
of her comment. Nobody ever said it's too great, it's
too high, it's too tight.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
All right.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I've never stared at your butt either, Deborah.
Speaker 5 (14:27):
Okay, so we need to have a butt off.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
I'll dress appropriately.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
You're a lot younger than me.
Speaker 6 (14:34):
I'm sure your butt is uh is much better that way.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
I'm sure they're both beautiful the way God made them.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
All right.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Coming up next, a I do you listen to audiobooks, Deborah?
Speaker 2 (14:48):
I don't, nor.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Do I because I get distracted too easily, Like when
I'm driving, I can't focus on a book because I
like to visualize it in all of that. But apparently
AI is very good at reading us our books. But
they have a problem when they get to a certain
part of the book.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
We'll tell you what that is when we come back.
Is this the it's the sex the sex parts?
Speaker 3 (15:12):
Cool. You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Former NFL quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is in trouble. He's been suspended.
He's a high school football coach. What was he suspended for?
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Hmm?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Giving benefits to his players, paying out of his own
pocket for field paint, pregame meals, giving the kids some clothes,
physical therapy for his players, funding a training camp for him,
spend about seventy thousand dollars of his own for the
season on this and he suspended.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Huh. Now, I get it.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Kids that don't go to Teddy Bridgewaters coached football school
do not get those benefits. But shouldn't they I mean,
should they have like meals and paint for the field.
And I don't know why you would suspend someone over
just trying how do you become How do you play
in the NFL for how many years? Did you play
in the NFL for ten? Back up most of them.
(16:13):
How do you play in the NFL for ten years
and go coach high school kids who don't have shoes
or clothes or there's no paint on the field. How
do you explain that to them? Of it's the rules,
It's like, no, you have the money, let's let's get
the let's get the food in the kids' stomachs.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
My gosh, that's weird. That's an odd thing.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
That that should be a benefit of playing for Teddy
Bridgewater's team in school and other coaches should should do
the same thing, or players should should A lot of
players don'ate to high school and youth sports programs. Are
they going to get suspended for doing so weird? Okay ai,
We talk about it all the time. It does so
(16:56):
well and so many of our jobs. It could take
this one and it could take a lot of people's jobs.
But maybe audiobooks, a specific genre of audiobooks, are causing
some issues. There are audiobook actors. Some of them are
very good. Some of them are so good that when
(17:18):
you get an audiobook where it's not done by someone good,
you can't do it, like no, can't do that voice,
can't do that delivery. Annabelle Tutor is an actor and
an audiobook narrator, and she says, it's that instinct we
have as storytellers that makes narrations such a primal and
(17:38):
precious skill that the voice betrays how we're feeling really easily,
and it's an art form.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
She says, it's.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
What makes an audiobook memorable, the most human moments, right
a catch in the throat when tears are near words
spoken through a real smile. That's hard to do if
you're AI. You know, it's even harder to do if
you're AI. I don't know how to sugarcoat this, but
(18:11):
just say it, Shannon, but have an orgasm. The AI
doesn't know what it sounds like or what it should
sound like. There's no the AI doesn't know that yet.
It hasn't achieved that that skill. There's growing concerns everywhere
among voice actors. You're a voice actor, Deborah Mark.
Speaker 6 (18:32):
I actually replaced AI for a one voiceover job that
I did because it was also it wasn't audio books,
but it was it was a narration of athletes, and
they I didn't have to I didn't have to have
an O, but they also they wanted that real human
element when telling stories and when you're talking about athletes
(18:56):
and what they had to accomplish and the trials and
tribulations and all that, right there some emotion and AI
can't really do that yet.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Right right, this may be the straw that breaks the
back when it comes to voice narration. Going completely to AI.
You have done male enhancement products. I have, but you
didn't have to voice an orgasm for that. You did
use sex voice, but I didn't.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
I didn't moan and grow.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
No, No, that's beneath me, Shannon.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Right, we have a line, okay, and that's my line,
the sex voice.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Okay, I'll do it, But not even do.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
That anymore because it was popping up on those those
those commercials were popping up on this station and other
stations in town. So I no longer do those anymore.
But some people, what a loss for all of us.
They were good, thank you.
Speaker 5 (19:51):
But you know, I can't. I can't be taken seriously
as a.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
News Sure, you can news people like to have sex.
Speaker 5 (19:57):
Yeah, that is true.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
We're humans, that's true.
Speaker 5 (20:00):
But yeah, I stop doing that.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
You're right, though, you don't want people to think of
your sex voice when you're reading about, you know, the
nine people killed in an insisted living facility.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Exactly right.
Speaker 6 (20:14):
Yes, but I'm not gonna ever. I mean, I'll never
say never, but I don't think I would ever.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Well, I mean, you'll have a conversation.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Yeah, you know, if somebody wants to hire you to
do orgasm books, you're.
Speaker 5 (20:25):
Right, they have to pay us a whole lot of money.
And I probably leave my job here.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
How much money do you think you'd do it for?
I mean, like, okay, say, like.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
You know one time, it's it's a it's a two and.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
A half hours of work. You've got to have three
orgasms in the book, you know what. No, No, because
the thing is it's going to come back to haunt exact.
It's like posting a picture or whatever or taking the
picture sending it's going to come back.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Yeah, you know, I would have to.
Speaker 5 (20:58):
Be millions of million.
Speaker 6 (21:01):
No one's going to pay me to have an oh
you know for a thirty second spot.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
That's just not going to happen, because it's not like
you're faking some other woman's thing, you know, it's like, yeah,
it's a very personal thing. Yes, well good, I'm glad
we have some moral ground that we are standing on
here today.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
But Keanu, where did we.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Come down on the can we or can't we play
the orgasm?
Speaker 4 (21:25):
Can't we can't? I'm sorry?
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Well, mine, I guess I won't get suspended. You see
me out here just flopping in the breeze all alone
on this Monday.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
I try to get myself suspended, and you.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
Say no, I got to look out for you.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
I saw my chance, I shot my shot. It's like
two k in here. I'm like, play the orgasm from
the sex book you're reading, and.
Speaker 4 (21:53):
No, I'll bring it in during the break. How about that.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
I don't need to hear it. I just need to
use it to get me to the rest of the week.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Off.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
All right, well we come back, we'll get into the
Emmy nomination.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Since we're not going to do orgasms.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
I guess you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand
from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
We have some exciting, something exciting going on on the show,
and it's just it's percolating. It's in the beginning stages.
Gary doesn't know about it yet, but you know what,
you leave me alone and things are going to be
created and.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
It's gonna be kind of I.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Mean, we've talked about the idea before of some sort
of dating games, some sort of matchmaker type thing we
could do on the show, and it seemed a bit cumbersome, right,
too many wheels spinning around men women. How would we
narrow it down? What would the parameters be? But we
(22:55):
may have a bachelor that we may be trying to pair.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Off and like I say, Gary may not know.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
About it yet, but ladies, we may have a very
eligible person that we may be doing some sort of
dating game as what don't you look at me like
you didn't know where your future was headed. He may
work here and it may be a lot of fun.
It may be something for the summer that we all
do together as we pick his wife.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
So stay tuned for that.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
It will probably be launching in the next week or
so when Gary comes back. The week Gary comes back,
he comes back on Monday, so he'll be a fun
little surprise for him as well. The Emmy nominations is
anyone paying attention out there, entertainment world in Los Angeles.
Emmy nominations arrive tomorrow, and this is when we get
(23:50):
to use the word that we only get to use
in award season in this season and the word is snub.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Who will get snubbed? Where did this word come from? Snub?
Speaker 1 (24:00):
We never use it in any other way except for
Oscars or Emmy's or whatever. They say that the front
runners are Severance, White Lotus, the Pit, the studio Hacks, adolescence.
(24:24):
They're all so different, aren't they. I found the White
Lotus to be a complete waste of time this season.
Maybe it was a mood I was in. I don't know,
but what a waste of time. It just seemed like
the making fun of the rich thing got old and
there was nobody to root for. I need somebody to
root for on a show. I had the same issue
(24:46):
with with what's it called? The show on HBO Secession.
I need someone to root for. Those people were all horrible.
The Pit is an er drama. In my say that
correctly hospital drama. It's supposed to.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Be very good.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
I got halfway through the first episode and realized it
was too tense.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
It was too tense. It was stressing me out. I'm
not a doctor.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I don't know how to fix what's going on, and
it's too much chaos. The studio a little too inside
baseball for me. But Seth Rogan, that's a popular one.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Hacks.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
I adore adolescence, man, you guys see Adolescents. Four episodes
of just intense, straight.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Great acting is what that was.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
So for comedy series, you're looking at Avid Elementary, The Bear, Hacks. Nobody,
Where are we on The Bear? Is anybody else watching
The Bear? I started this season and I think I'm
kind of over the Bear. It seems like it's taken
the same kind of plot.
Speaker 6 (25:51):
I watched, I think, just one episode, and I've got
to say it really bothers me that the Bear is
in the comedy category. It is not a common I know,
we've talked about it before. And I understand why they
wanted in a comedy. I guess because of the I
don't know why, the competition and the drama. I don't know,
but it's.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Not It's not a comedy.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
No, it's not funny.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
I mean I've ever laughed, I mean maybe chuckled uncomfortably.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
Right, but it's not.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
And I don't I don't understand all these years why
it's still And look, I loved it when it first
came out.
Speaker 5 (26:23):
I still like it, but I forgot all about it.
Speaker 6 (26:26):
You know, I'm watching The Gilded Age and I'm watching
you know, the the Sullivan's Crossing and all of that,
and I have totally forgotten about the Bear.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
Do you like Sullivan's Crossing?
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Yes, I do. It's really good. It's a feel good show.
It is, and I mean it's not winning any awards
with a writing or plot or what have you, but
it's one of those Virgin River type just to feel good.
Speaker 5 (26:50):
You need it after a hard day at the office,
you do.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
I'm going to watch a lot of that tonight that
I've had a hard day at the office, but I
am feeling a little bit crazy after four hours of
talking to myself.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
I get it, you know. But yeah, some of these
are really great.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Like I said earlier, you know, when I look at Shrinking,
I love Shrinking Hacks. I love that nobody wants this.
I love Kristen Bells. I love everything she's in. And
that is so cleverly written and done. Adam Brodie is
fantastic and that as well.
Speaker 5 (27:21):
Are you watching the latest season of And just like that?
Speaker 2 (27:24):
I am?
Speaker 1 (27:26):
And I it's funny because I flagged this article that
Keanu sent me last week about how people are hate
watching it that you know, I grew up on watching
Sex and the Same and I was in my twenties.
I was in my teens and my twenties and they
were in their thirties, and I just I took that
show like it was the Bible. Like I was just like,
(27:46):
this is what it's like, and this is what it's
going to be like. And I'll consume any product because
I kind of grew up on it.
Speaker 5 (27:54):
Did you buy all those fancy shoes.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
When I could?
Speaker 1 (27:58):
I mean not at the time, but I at least
one pair, I think my wedding shoes for Jimmy Choo's or.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
Something like that.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
But you know, it's like it was a rite of
passage kind of a thing.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
And I was watching the season, I thought, has the
writing always been this atrocious?
Speaker 2 (28:15):
I mean, it's are they trying to be cute? Is it? Ai?
What is it?
Speaker 6 (28:19):
I have totally totally thought the same thing. I think
I'm wondering if there are the same writers because it
is I hate to say it, but quite cheesy, cheesy.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
And Aiden masturbating in the truck of the cab the
cab of the truck.
Speaker 4 (28:35):
I couldn't believe.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
It was awful.
Speaker 5 (28:37):
And you're having Carrie do it or pretending you're.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
Doing I was like, you're ruining my childhood. That's how
I felt. I don't want to see Aiden masturbating.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
Good lord, No, no, no, no.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (28:51):
I mean I watch it because I like the fashion.
That's the only aspect.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
I do love the fashion.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
I know, I know that that's why we watch Keana
tried not to get me suspended, and then I just
doubled down on it.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
So here we go. Debra, you're coming with me.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
Wait, we're not allowed to say masturbating. I'm gonna get
suspended too.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
John.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
Sorry, I'm not gonna be on this show.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
John.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Sorry, we talked way too much about all of it.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
All right, John's coming up next. We will see you tomorrow.
God willing you stay dry. Everybody out there, you've been

Speaker 2 (00:07):
In the meantime, what else is going on?
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Time for What's Happening?
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Wow? What's Happening? Brought to you my Trajan Wealth.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
Trajan Wealth will help you set and achieve your financial
goals for retirement your local trusted financial fiduciary. Trajanwealth dot
Com mentioned this earlier. A story that developed over the weekend.
A man from Tarzana, The guy who was due on
trial of killing his wife and her parents has by
(00:40):
all accounts, been killed in custody, killed himself in custody.
His name was Sam Haskell. He was due in court today.
He was accused of murdering his thirty seven year old wife,
may Lee and her parents and then you know, cutting
up their bodies and tossing the dismembered parts into a
(01:01):
trash bin in Encino. Those human remains were later discovered,
but there was other parts that he loaded into big
trash bags and then hired day labors to come clear
them out. The day laborers looked in the bags and said,
we've got a problem here called nine to one one
(01:21):
and phone this thing in. And you just wonder if
he hired day labors hoping that they wouldn't call the
police because they're afraid or something.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Anyway, it happened a couple of years ago.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
He lived there in Tarzana with his wife, their three kids,
and the parents. The thing that made this more notable
even so, is that his dad is an Emmy winning producer,
a big time Hollywood agent called Kathy Lee Gifford, Whippy
Goldberg clients, Dolly Parton, excuse me, George Clooney as what
(01:54):
Clooney see? This is what happens when I don't eat,
I can't talk. My brain shuts off. I'm being very
dramatic about this fasting thing, getting blood work done this afternoon.
I haven't eaten anything, and it's just shutting down. It's
actually shutting down, to which I would also say, I
can't talk at this time of day, any day of
(02:15):
the week, food or not.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Anyway, So this guy there will be no trial.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Don't know if he was going to plead out today
or what if this was going to go to trial,
but you just you prayers up for those three little kids.
Three young children were left behind, and you wonder, if
you killed himself, why didn't you just start off that way?
Why not save us all of that? Why not save
those three kids the loss of their mother?
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Good Lord?
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Orange County residents are dealing with some significant trash collection
delays uh oh Anaheim, Brea, Guarding Grove, Fullerton, Huntington Beach. Listen,
if it's impacting you, you know who you are. Apparently
there is a strike on the East coasts that we've
talked about. I believe it's affecting Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
I'm not sure. I don't remember, but.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
There are services workers here that are honoring that East
Coast strike and their colleagues by not going to work here.
The strike began January first, four hundred sanitation workers walked
off the job. So the cities like Guarding, Grow, Fullerton,
and HB are using temporary drop off locations where you
(03:30):
can take your trash because that thing starts accumulating and
things don't smell great more. Flood threats have hindered the
searches for the victims of the July fourth flooding in
Central Texas. Emergency crews had to temporarily suspend their operations
there because of the renewed flood threat. Like things couldn't
(03:53):
get worse, so we'll stay on top of that.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
So far, so good. They're awful story.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
I didn't want to spend any time on nine people killed,
dozens hospitalized after that fire at the assisted living facility
in Massachusetts. Nothing really to say about that other than
just awful. We've got the FDA approving a new blued
food dye, okay, because there's like a war on food
(04:22):
dies right now, and I'm telling you I'm going to
start stockpiling Eminem's because I'll roll the dice. I understand,
we don't need the food dies and all of our things.
It's bad for us, it's poisoning the children, and I
get it. But I'm going to keep my Eminem's the
way they are. You know, I had a hard enough
time in nineteen ninety five when they transitioned from the
(04:44):
tan Eminem to the blue Eminem. I don't like it
when people mess with my Eminems and the colors. So
I think I am going to actively start stockpiling Eminem's
if they're going to come for those. So far, the
Eminems have been the roadblock for all of Robert F.
Kennedy Junior's food war games in Washington. They've kind of said,
you're not touching the candy.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
You can do it to the.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Breakfast products or the snack products, but you're not coming
for our candy. So apparently today the US FDA approved
a new blue color additive derived from the fruit of
the gardena. I didn't know that the gardenias made fruit,
but then again, I am not a garden person, and
I know there is a word for that, and that's
how much of a garden person I am not. This
(05:29):
color is a proof for use in sports drinks, a
flavored or the non carbonated waters, the whole bit. So
that's good. It's apparently not the stuff that kills you.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Robert F.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Kennedy Junior is happy about it, So yay for the
Guardina fruits. There is a new study out that says
a number of kids accidentally swallowing zin pouches has gone
up seven hundred and sixty three percent in recent years. Well,
of course, because we didn't have nicotine pouches ten twenty
years ago, did we? I don't think we did. Zin
(06:06):
is everywhere. We see that everywhere, Unlike smoking and vaping,
the nicotine patches like zin are smoke and tobacco free,
but they still contain the nicotine. So our kid's gonna
see a little pellet sized thing and put it in
their mouth.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Of course they are. They'll be fine. We did worse.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Okay, we smoked actual cigarettes when we were children. I'm
not doing this story about the tarantulas smuggled in cake
boxes at the airport. No, how about a new purpose
for feral cats? When Gary comes back, I'm going to
ye know, I'm gonna write that down, a new purpose
(06:50):
for feral cats. When he comes back, I'm gonna say,
you're not taking two week vacations anymore, because on Monday
I heard the phrase come out of my mouth. Giving
feral cats a new purpose. But it is important. Let's
see the volunteers of the oh we're local of the
(07:12):
Burbank Animal Shelter or calling on the community to help
place what they call working cats into barns, backyards, warehouses,
and other non traditional homes.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
These are cats that are mean, little bastards.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
They are not suited for indoor living or human companionship,
but you can put them in your barn. The Barn
Cat program, it's called. They said, these cats can still
find a place to live out their lives with.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Purpose and protection. They're very clear these are not house cats.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
They're perfectly happy to live outside, meaning don't let your
children around these little bastards of cats. Each cat is
bade or neutered, vaccinated, and delivered by volunteers where they
say you got to initially keep the little monsters and
kennels to help them acclimate.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Right, little gremlins is what they are.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Maybe we get maybe we get one of these cats
around here, like a mean ass cat around here, just
to spice things up. We can get a little cage
for it. We could do that, right, I mean, they
don't need to be taken out or anything. We can
there's people here around the clock.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
What does each show have to change the kitty litter?
Speaker 1 (08:27):
I think that's like a like a three times a
week situation, isn't it. What? Yeah, so we could we
could handle it. When I say we, I mean not me,
but somebody around here. Get a mean little cat like
that'd be fun to have a little mean ass cat
as a mascot. Like nothing coddly or cute, but just
a mean little thing doesn't want to have anything to
(08:48):
do with anybody. How do you differentiate cats mean cats
versus non mean cats?
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Like, how is there a difference?
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Don't mean cats like attack you?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Don't all cats like attack you.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
I mean I still have scars for my husband's cats
because he didn't declaw them.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
So those things will leave marks.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Mine doesn't attack me.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Oh, yours doesn't attack you. What's your cat's name?
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Alfie?
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Alfie. That's a good name. That's a good name for
a cat. That's a good one. All right.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
When we come back Japanese walking, I still feel like
this is racist. I don't know why we're calling it
Japanese walking, Like I think that this is just a
style of walking, and I don't know what Japanese has
to do with it. But we'll just continue the racist
Monday that the Washington Boast began with his headline about
Japanese walking.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on Demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
The Washington Post has an article about Japanese walking.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
I feel like this is racist. Is it racist if
it's a positive thing? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Deep thoughts, Deep thoughts. Walking, as we know, is the
way to get in shape. You don't have to be
a marathon runner. You don't have to be a CrossFit
guy girl. You can just walk every day and see
impacts right away from this low impact exercise. It keeps
(10:16):
you healthy, it keeps you feeling good, keeps your mood good, longevity,
all the things walking can do. We know that sitting
is worse than smoking these days. Sitting for eight hours
a day is right up there with smoking all day
according to the science. But anyway, this one particular technique
is known as Japanese walking. I think that this is
(10:41):
just I don't know, interval training interval walking, but it's
going viral on TikTok where everybody thinks they're coming up
with new things.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Nearly twenty years ago, a.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Team led by Hiroshi Knows and other researchers from Japan
published a study that found that middle aged and older
older people who did high intensity interval walking had lower
blood pressure, stronger thigh muscles, better aerobic capacity than walker
is the same age who kept a more moderate, continuous pace.
(11:13):
I had a trainer, like a mister universe. Doug Brignoli
was his name, years ago, God rest his soul, great guy.
And he told me this all those years ago, and
he said If you just get on the treadmill and
you jog at like a five or whatever I was
doing for thirty minutes, you're kind of wasting your time.
(11:38):
If you get on the treadmill and you do like
five sprints, right, and it takes you ten minutes, that's
more than those thirty minutes are going to do. If
you walk and then you sprint and then you walk
in these intervals, that's much better than just sustained low
level activity. And it's the same for walking, according to
these Japanese researchers. In the study, the volunteers did three
(12:01):
minutes of fast walking followed by three minutes at a
slower pace, for thirty minutes per day, four days a week.
One of the most surprising findings was that this style
of walking increased physical fitness and decreased blood pressure after
five months. Those were not improvements found in the moderate
(12:24):
walking group the same amount of time just at a
moderate space. They say that they the interval walking got
its nickname because the study was conducted in Japan.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Ie were not racist, Shannon.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
But they say that this is more popular in Japan
than anywhere else. When I went to Japan Tokyo, I
did notice random middle aged people doing exercises when they
were waiting for the bus or just in an area
where people come agate. Whether it's just like arm circles
(13:03):
or stretching or anything. It was and you and you
don't wonder why everyone's so slim. It's just move your body.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
You know. You don't, like I said, you don't have
to be a marathon runner.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
You don't have to be you know, in your plates
class five days a week.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Just just move around more.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
But the interval training walking, I had never thought of
thought about interval runs that it's always nice to have
a burst of energy like on a jog or something
like that.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
But the walking, what.
Speaker 5 (13:34):
About if you do hills, does that count?
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Sure, that's the best for you. You burn more calories walking
up hill. And it's sneaky too, you don't realize it,
but like that's more than a run. Yeah, it's hard,
It is hard, and it's good for your ass.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Yeah, as miss Patricia says, my ass is too high
and too tight. Said, no one ever always trying to
work on that. Somebody said that to you, my ballet teacher. Yeah,
she does exercises, you know, to keep your butt. Yeah,
you know, so, she says, so, yeah, yeah, she tells
you what you need to hear.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
I haven't stared at your butt, but.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
That it's not great.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
I mean, let me tell you, that's the whole point
of her comment. Nobody ever said it's too great, it's
too high, it's too tight.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
All right.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I've never stared at your butt either, Deborah.
Speaker 5 (14:27):
Okay, so we need to have a butt off.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
I'll dress appropriately.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
You're a lot younger than me.
Speaker 6 (14:34):
I'm sure your butt is uh is much better that way.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
I'm sure they're both beautiful the way God made them.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
All right.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Coming up next, a I do you listen to audiobooks, Deborah?
Speaker 2 (14:48):
I don't, nor.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Do I because I get distracted too easily, Like when
I'm driving, I can't focus on a book because I
like to visualize it in all of that. But apparently
AI is very good at reading us our books. But
they have a problem when they get to a certain
part of the book.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
We'll tell you what that is when we come back.
Is this the it's the sex the sex parts?
Speaker 3 (15:12):
Cool. You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Former NFL quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is in trouble. He's been suspended.
He's a high school football coach. What was he suspended for?
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Hmm?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Giving benefits to his players, paying out of his own
pocket for field paint, pregame meals, giving the kids some clothes,
physical therapy for his players, funding a training camp for him,
spend about seventy thousand dollars of his own for the
season on this and he suspended.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Huh. Now, I get it.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Kids that don't go to Teddy Bridgewaters coached football school
do not get those benefits. But shouldn't they I mean,
should they have like meals and paint for the field.
And I don't know why you would suspend someone over
just trying how do you become How do you play
in the NFL for how many years? Did you play
in the NFL for ten? Back up most of them.
(16:13):
How do you play in the NFL for ten years
and go coach high school kids who don't have shoes
or clothes or there's no paint on the field. How
do you explain that to them? Of it's the rules,
It's like, no, you have the money, let's let's get
the let's get the food in the kids' stomachs.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
My gosh, that's weird. That's an odd thing.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
That that should be a benefit of playing for Teddy
Bridgewater's team in school and other coaches should should do
the same thing, or players should should A lot of
players don'ate to high school and youth sports programs. Are
they going to get suspended for doing so weird? Okay ai,
We talk about it all the time. It does so
(16:56):
well and so many of our jobs. It could take
this one and it could take a lot of people's jobs.
But maybe audiobooks, a specific genre of audiobooks, are causing
some issues. There are audiobook actors. Some of them are
very good. Some of them are so good that when
(17:18):
you get an audiobook where it's not done by someone good,
you can't do it, like no, can't do that voice,
can't do that delivery. Annabelle Tutor is an actor and
an audiobook narrator, and she says, it's that instinct we
have as storytellers that makes narrations such a primal and
(17:38):
precious skill that the voice betrays how we're feeling really easily,
and it's an art form.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
She says, it's.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
What makes an audiobook memorable, the most human moments, right
a catch in the throat when tears are near words
spoken through a real smile. That's hard to do if
you're AI. You know, it's even harder to do if
you're AI. I don't know how to sugarcoat this, but
(18:11):
just say it, Shannon, but have an orgasm. The AI
doesn't know what it sounds like or what it should
sound like. There's no the AI doesn't know that yet.
It hasn't achieved that that skill. There's growing concerns everywhere
among voice actors. You're a voice actor, Deborah Mark.
Speaker 6 (18:32):
I actually replaced AI for a one voiceover job that
I did because it was also it wasn't audio books,
but it was it was a narration of athletes, and
they I didn't have to I didn't have to have
an O, but they also they wanted that real human
element when telling stories and when you're talking about athletes
(18:56):
and what they had to accomplish and the trials and
tribulations and all that, right there some emotion and AI
can't really do that yet.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Right right, this may be the straw that breaks the
back when it comes to voice narration. Going completely to AI.
You have done male enhancement products. I have, but you
didn't have to voice an orgasm for that. You did
use sex voice, but I didn't.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
I didn't moan and grow.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
No, No, that's beneath me, Shannon.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Right, we have a line, okay, and that's my line,
the sex voice.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Okay, I'll do it, But not even do.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
That anymore because it was popping up on those those
those commercials were popping up on this station and other
stations in town. So I no longer do those anymore.
But some people, what a loss for all of us.
They were good, thank you.
Speaker 5 (19:51):
But you know, I can't. I can't be taken seriously
as a.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
News Sure, you can news people like to have sex.
Speaker 5 (19:57):
Yeah, that is true.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
We're humans, that's true.
Speaker 5 (20:00):
But yeah, I stop doing that.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
You're right, though, you don't want people to think of
your sex voice when you're reading about, you know, the
nine people killed in an insisted living facility.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Exactly right.
Speaker 6 (20:14):
Yes, but I'm not gonna ever. I mean, I'll never
say never, but I don't think I would ever.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Well, I mean, you'll have a conversation.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Yeah, you know, if somebody wants to hire you to
do orgasm books, you're.
Speaker 5 (20:25):
Right, they have to pay us a whole lot of money.
And I probably leave my job here.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
How much money do you think you'd do it for?
I mean, like, okay, say, like.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
You know one time, it's it's a it's a two and.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
A half hours of work. You've got to have three
orgasms in the book, you know what. No, No, because
the thing is it's going to come back to haunt exact.
It's like posting a picture or whatever or taking the
picture sending it's going to come back.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Yeah, you know, I would have to.
Speaker 5 (20:58):
Be millions of million.
Speaker 6 (21:01):
No one's going to pay me to have an oh
you know for a thirty second spot.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
That's just not going to happen, because it's not like
you're faking some other woman's thing, you know, it's like, yeah,
it's a very personal thing. Yes, well good, I'm glad
we have some moral ground that we are standing on
here today.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
But Keanu, where did we.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Come down on the can we or can't we play
the orgasm?
Speaker 4 (21:25):
Can't we can't? I'm sorry?
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Well, mine, I guess I won't get suspended. You see
me out here just flopping in the breeze all alone
on this Monday.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
I try to get myself suspended, and you.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
Say no, I got to look out for you.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
I saw my chance, I shot my shot. It's like
two k in here. I'm like, play the orgasm from
the sex book you're reading, and.
Speaker 4 (21:53):
No, I'll bring it in during the break. How about that.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
I don't need to hear it. I just need to
use it to get me to the rest of the week.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Off.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
All right, well we come back, we'll get into the
Emmy nomination.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Since we're not going to do orgasms.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
I guess you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand
from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
We have some exciting, something exciting going on on the show,
and it's just it's percolating. It's in the beginning stages.
Gary doesn't know about it yet, but you know what,
you leave me alone and things are going to be
created and.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
It's gonna be kind of I.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Mean, we've talked about the idea before of some sort
of dating games, some sort of matchmaker type thing we
could do on the show, and it seemed a bit cumbersome, right,
too many wheels spinning around men women. How would we
narrow it down? What would the parameters be? But we
(22:55):
may have a bachelor that we may be trying to pair.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Off and like I say, Gary may not know.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
About it yet, but ladies, we may have a very
eligible person that we may be doing some sort of
dating game as what don't you look at me like
you didn't know where your future was headed. He may
work here and it may be a lot of fun.
It may be something for the summer that we all
do together as we pick his wife.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
So stay tuned for that.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
It will probably be launching in the next week or
so when Gary comes back. The week Gary comes back,
he comes back on Monday, so he'll be a fun
little surprise for him as well. The Emmy nominations is
anyone paying attention out there, entertainment world in Los Angeles.
Emmy nominations arrive tomorrow, and this is when we get
(23:50):
to use the word that we only get to use
in award season in this season and the word is snub.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Who will get snubbed? Where did this word come from? Snub?
Speaker 1 (24:00):
We never use it in any other way except for
Oscars or Emmy's or whatever. They say that the front
runners are Severance, White Lotus, the Pit, the studio Hacks, adolescence.
(24:24):
They're all so different, aren't they. I found the White
Lotus to be a complete waste of time this season.
Maybe it was a mood I was in. I don't know,
but what a waste of time. It just seemed like
the making fun of the rich thing got old and
there was nobody to root for. I need somebody to
root for on a show. I had the same issue
(24:46):
with with what's it called? The show on HBO Secession.
I need someone to root for. Those people were all horrible.
The Pit is an er drama. In my say that
correctly hospital drama. It's supposed to.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Be very good.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
I got halfway through the first episode and realized it
was too tense.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
It was too tense. It was stressing me out. I'm
not a doctor.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I don't know how to fix what's going on, and
it's too much chaos. The studio a little too inside
baseball for me. But Seth Rogan, that's a popular one.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Hacks.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
I adore adolescence, man, you guys see Adolescents. Four episodes
of just intense, straight.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Great acting is what that was.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
So for comedy series, you're looking at Avid Elementary, The Bear, Hacks. Nobody,
Where are we on The Bear? Is anybody else watching
The Bear? I started this season and I think I'm
kind of over the Bear. It seems like it's taken
the same kind of plot.
Speaker 6 (25:51):
I watched, I think, just one episode, and I've got
to say it really bothers me that the Bear is
in the comedy category. It is not a common I know,
we've talked about it before. And I understand why they
wanted in a comedy. I guess because of the I
don't know why, the competition and the drama. I don't know,
but it's.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Not It's not a comedy.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
No, it's not funny.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
I mean I've ever laughed, I mean maybe chuckled uncomfortably.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
Right, but it's not.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
And I don't I don't understand all these years why
it's still And look, I loved it when it first
came out.
Speaker 5 (26:23):
I still like it, but I forgot all about it.
Speaker 6 (26:26):
You know, I'm watching The Gilded Age and I'm watching
you know, the the Sullivan's Crossing and all of that,
and I have totally forgotten about the Bear.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
Do you like Sullivan's Crossing?
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Yes, I do. It's really good. It's a feel good show.
It is, and I mean it's not winning any awards
with a writing or plot or what have you, but
it's one of those Virgin River type just to feel good.
Speaker 5 (26:50):
You need it after a hard day at the office,
you do.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
I'm going to watch a lot of that tonight that
I've had a hard day at the office, but I
am feeling a little bit crazy after four hours of
talking to myself.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
I get it, you know. But yeah, some of these
are really great.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Like I said earlier, you know, when I look at Shrinking,
I love Shrinking Hacks. I love that nobody wants this.
I love Kristen Bells. I love everything she's in. And
that is so cleverly written and done. Adam Brodie is
fantastic and that as well.
Speaker 5 (27:21):
Are you watching the latest season of And just like that?
Speaker 2 (27:24):
I am?
Speaker 1 (27:26):
And I it's funny because I flagged this article that
Keanu sent me last week about how people are hate
watching it that you know, I grew up on watching
Sex and the Same and I was in my twenties.
I was in my teens and my twenties and they
were in their thirties, and I just I took that
show like it was the Bible. Like I was just like,
(27:46):
this is what it's like, and this is what it's
going to be like. And I'll consume any product because
I kind of grew up on it.
Speaker 5 (27:54):
Did you buy all those fancy shoes.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
When I could?
Speaker 1 (27:58):
I mean not at the time, but I at least
one pair, I think my wedding shoes for Jimmy Choo's or.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
Something like that.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
But you know, it's like it was a rite of
passage kind of a thing.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
And I was watching the season, I thought, has the
writing always been this atrocious?
Speaker 2 (28:15):
I mean, it's are they trying to be cute? Is it? Ai?
What is it?
Speaker 6 (28:19):
I have totally totally thought the same thing. I think
I'm wondering if there are the same writers because it
is I hate to say it, but quite cheesy, cheesy.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
And Aiden masturbating in the truck of the cab the
cab of the truck.
Speaker 4 (28:35):
I couldn't believe.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
It was awful.
Speaker 5 (28:37):
And you're having Carrie do it or pretending you're.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
Doing I was like, you're ruining my childhood. That's how
I felt. I don't want to see Aiden masturbating.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
Good lord, No, no, no, no.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (28:51):
I mean I watch it because I like the fashion.
That's the only aspect.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
I do love the fashion.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
I know, I know that that's why we watch Keana
tried not to get me suspended, and then I just
doubled down on it.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
So here we go. Debra, you're coming with me.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
Wait, we're not allowed to say masturbating. I'm gonna get
suspended too.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
John.
Speaker 5 (29:12):
Sorry, I'm not gonna be on this show.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
John.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Sorry, we talked way too much about all of it.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
All right, John's coming up next. We will see you tomorrow.
