Gary and Shannon debate everything from San Francisco’s “doom-loop” recovery to LA’s Olympic promises, but first, Shannon can’t ignore what’s happening during the commercial break. Let’s just say Gary’s mid-show warm-up routine involves fewer layers than expected. Plus, Gary and Shannon dive into dueling takes on San Francisco’s comeback, the Daily Mail vs WSJ showdown, and the latest on a missing 9-year-old in California.

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.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
The iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
We've got a zombie apocalypse to tell you about coming
up in about a half an hour. So if you're
looking for something to look forward to on this Monday,
boom baby, when is it coming? Is this the Atlas
AI three sixty.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Three I atlas?
Speaker 4 (00:27):
No?
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Do we think it was part of the Atlas three
I sixty three eye atlas that broke off and hit
that plane going from Denver to.
Speaker 5 (00:37):
Possibly, I don't know why it would have sent a
wait a minute, that makes perfect sense. It would send
a probe to go ahead as sort of a scout.
They have no idea what to hit that airplane. There's
nothing up. It's thirty six thirty.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Six thousand feet and something hit the windshield of the
airplane Denver to San Francisco. Was it Denver La, Denver La?
That had to have that plane land in Utah? What
was it that hit the windshield of that plane at
thirty six thousand feet If it was not Atlas three
I three.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
Sixty orfo that was part of three eye Atlas three sixty.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
I thought that Atlas three I three sixty was a
probe itself.
Speaker 5 (01:23):
Do you mean there's something even bigger? Well, I thought,
I mean I know that we talked about it.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
I'm not ready for that.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Can you be serious about this for a moment?
Speaker 1 (01:37):
He said, go on, this is a maybe comet, right,
but that has powers to light up?
Speaker 6 (01:47):
Right.
Speaker 5 (01:47):
There are things that are very uncommet Like about that
is twelve miles long. Yeah, that is headed here in
nine days. Yes, and we've got a plane getting dinged
at thirty six thousand feet.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah, I don't think it's crazy. Kemtrail talked about to
talk about the two being connected.
Speaker 5 (02:06):
Well, except that three I Atlas is still millions of
miles away from us. How does this end a probe
that much? And furthermore, where are we on that it's
still common?
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Like?
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Where does the GPS say this thing is gonna.
Speaker 6 (02:24):
By?
Speaker 5 (02:25):
They it's somewhere bits closer to the Earth than Mars.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
I think is what the last I saw. That's what
I think.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Okay, I'm not nothing to me.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
It's out there. Don't worry about it.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Okay, So there's no there's no chance it gets close.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
I didn't say, no chance.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
That's why I'm asking where we are. Very small chance.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
Yeah, I'm hoping it gets close really yeah, just enough
to like clause a breeze or like.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
I'd like to see change and what we're doing here. Okay, yeah,
see Elmer's with me.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Chaos.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
I'd love the chaos. It would be good for ratings.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Right, we'd just be talking about every day, like, oh,
they would be here, we would have them on clearly.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
You'd convince them of what to come on the show.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Oh yeah, ye, yeah, that would be a problem.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
You'd read your mind. It'll be like this is going to.
Speaker 5 (03:17):
Be three I Atlas will come closest to the Sun
next week, October twenty ninth, right, at a distance of
one point three six a U and astronomical units.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
I believe it's what is.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
That one hundred and twenty six million miles from the Sun,
which is between the orbits of Earth and March.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Yeah. It used.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
It appears to have either originated from the thin disc
or the thick disc part of the milky Way.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Oh, that sheds a lot of light up right from
Now you have.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
A better idea now that you know the origin. It's
really fills in some dark hearts for you.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
Laay Or Bass is marking about a thousand days out
from the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in twenty
eight she's announced what is called the Games for All
Vision plan, All.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
As opposed to as opposed to who has been left out?
Speaker 5 (04:16):
I don't know, she emphasized. Our goal is to make
sure the international event benefits us for generations to come.
That this is my vision, she said, and LA made
better for all Angelinos. We will accelerate street projects, streamline
city processes in permitting requirements, and make sure that we're
taking advantage of the economic impact. When we welcome the world,
(04:37):
LA will shine on the world stage, she says. This
is the third time that the Olympics are going to
be here. Of course, in nineteen thirty two we got
about a million dollars in surplus to host the games.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
This may be the chaos we're hoping for the Olympics
descending up. It'll be fine, it'll end up being fine.
But if you're in the no and you're sitting at
the ground zero of all of it, we'll be able
to see the chaos unfold and have better idea of
what's going on. As opposed to what it'll look like
(05:10):
on television, like we'll be able to see all the
warts and the pimples and the bruises, because it's not
going to go off without a hitch, Like, there's gonna
be some issues. We are so unorganized. It feels like
right now on a governmental level, that.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
It's gonna be hard for this to come off.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
Well, well, think of the I don't want to bad
mouth the Rose Paray because it's an incredible event, but
there have got to be things that go wrong with
the Rose Parade. But if you're living in Topeka and
you're watching the Rose Parade first thing on January first,
you think California is a beautiful place because all you're
looking at is Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena. We want a
(05:52):
beautiful blue sky morning.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
We see the people that they have to host the
Rose Parade try to fill for twenty extra seconds, and
we know that there's a float that broke down around
the corner right Yes.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
You know, Bob and Stephanie they made it seamless.
Speaker 5 (06:08):
And that's one seamless two and a half hour event.
This is going to be two and a half weeks.
I mean, Bobby just for the Olympics, let alone the Paralympics.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Bob and Stephanie, you were hoping for a breakdown. You
wanted to hear them go at each other like cats
and dogs in the most wonderful way. You loved the banter.
You welcome the banter between Bob and Stephanie. These new people,
Dick and Sandy. I don't want to hear them banter
because they're phony. Bob and Stephanie. You know when they
when they got into it, they got into it, and
(06:38):
we saw all the warts and the bruises, and they
were real Dick and Sandy. You know, maybe this is
the year where they finally say to each other, you know,
I don't like you, and then I don't like you either.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
Yeah, well you smell like coffee and whiskey.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Yeah. Who were they again? Who was that? The anchors?
Speaker 1 (06:57):
So you have a couple pops, Oh, come back, I
don't know what happens.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
That's the hard part of doing a six o'clock newscast
and then at eleven o'clock news, right, a lot of
time in there for you.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
I would have never been able to do that a
million years.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
All right, San Francisco may be coming back. By the way,
We're back, baby.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
San Francisco is coming back because I've had a few
trips there in recent years. I used to go all
the time, used to love going to San Francisco to
spend the weekend up there, and then it just became
a drug infested hellish shut down mess of a place,
and it was sad and I didn't go. My mom's
had some hospital stuff recently, and it feels like it's
coming back. It feels like after they took that turn
(07:40):
into progressive hell, they've got things right again.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
We'll talk about that when we come back. And a
chance to win a thousand bucks is coming up.
Speaker 6 (07:48):

Speaker 1 (08:31):
You're like naked. I don't think I've seen your arms
in years. Excuse me, what's going on?
Speaker 6 (08:36):
Mind?
Speaker 5 (08:36):
You take off all your clothes, push ups in the
brake so that I can warm up.
Speaker 6 (08:41):
A little bit. It's so.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
The reason I say that is if you haven't known
me to surprise you.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
I'm shocked. I haven't seen that much skin from you
in a long time. Gary's just wearing a short sleeved
shirt right now. But I feel accosted by the amount
of skin because in here we have to bundle.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Like it's.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
A ski town because it's very cold, so we're usually
he's usually in three different layers. I haven't seen skin.
I haven't seen his arms, honestly, probably in three years.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
I'm playing the part of Sir Edmund Hillary and you're
playing the part of tens Ignorgay.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Okay, I like my role. I like being Tensignorgay.
Speaker 5 (09:19):
Yeah, I a lot of ascents onto Everest.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Crime rates in San Francisco have dropped to their lowest
levels in decades and continue to fall. This is saying
it's welcome news to people who love San Francisco and
people who live in San Francisco is a gross understatement.
Burglaries down twenty eight percent this year. The homeless tents
(09:49):
that block the sidewalks have been reduced to near nothing,
especially in the areas where you notice them the most.
The tourists, the high traffic areas in kind transit ridership
are up.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
At least part of this has to do with the
AI boom. Tech companies for the last fifty years have
been in Northern California, Silicon Valley and San Francisco, and
it looks like the AI boom is taking advantage of
the fact that right now you could scoop up some
of these office built well, a couple of years ago,
you could scoop up some of these office buildings in
(10:27):
downtown San Francisco for an absolute deal and bet on
the fact that there would be some rebound to the
office commercial real estate market there.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Now.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
We've talked also about Daniel Lurie, the new mayor, his
first term mayor, he talks about these huge companies Open
AI and Thropic, which is also AI, and said that
when he talks to other mayors, they always tell him
that they would die to have just one of those companies.
And in San Francisco they've got dozens and dozens of
(11:00):
those companies. So it's not just that the companies are there,
it's the employees are all there, all of them very
well paid, all of them can afford things. Rent prices
have gone up, which for some people as an indicator
of inflation, but for others it's an indicator of supply
and demand, and that demand is up for those places,
those rental places in San Francisco.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
It's kind of a weird feeling because if you are
a San Franciscan native and you've seen what Salesforce has
done to the skyline, you've got mixed feelings because of
what Salesforce has brought to the city, but how it's
forever changed the city and Salesforce they are the home
(11:42):
to that leaning tower right that it used to be
the Trans America building that was the star of the
San Francisco Skyline and now it's that Salesforce building, which
a lot of us from there think is ugly. Why
did you have to change the skyline? Like what is
wrong with you? But there they are, and last week
Salesforce unveiled a fifteen billion dollar investment over the next
(12:06):
five years. And driving around the Sales Force campus there,
which I did recently because it was near the hospital
where my mom was, it is impressive. It is like
the live work play dream for a lot of these cities.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
It's just a bustling area.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
There's shopping, there's food, there's work, there's transit. They seem
to have done it right. And now Salesforce is seeing
that and they're putting even more money into this workforce
development program there in the city of San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
With that fifteen billion dollar investment.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
You know, it sounds like Daniel Lurie as much criticism
as has been launched at San Francisco in the last
couple of years. Daniel Lourie's not standing out there at
a podium and yelling everything's fine, We're all fine, stop
criticizing San Francisco. He says, I don't want to sit
here and just say every thing is perfect.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
It's not. We have a lot of work to do.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
He said that they have to continue to tackle drug use,
address the shortage of affordable housing, bringing more retail back,
further cut the red tape that can often be a
red flag for business and keep them out of town.
Foot traffic from city visitors and ridership on bart the
Bay Area Rapid Transit system had been going up, and
they said, the city is now counting and this is
(13:24):
a funny the count one hundred and sixty eight homeless tents.
That's down from two hundred and forty two. So that's good.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
That's a huge decrease because San Francisco is not It's
seven square miles.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Yeah, it's not a big that's not a big.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Place, which is why when there were two hundred and
fifty tents it was notable.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
You could see it.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
There is although, as you know, as rosy as this
Wall Street Journal article is about sort of the the
new trajectory for a rebirth of San Francisco. There is
a guy who has some time there in the city
itself and said that he survived the drug addled life
(14:08):
on the streets of San Francisco by the skin of
his teeth, and that he actually doesn't believe in this
rebirth of San Francisco. We'll talk about what Tom Wolfe says.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Well, Tom wolf has been on.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Drugs for decades. Well there's that.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
That's a tough that's a tough road to hoe out
of that, out of that life.
Speaker 6 (14:28):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
A M. Six forty.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
I ban the Cranberries from this show.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Yeah, sure, I did.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
I mean, I don't want to overstep is it is.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
It bring back painful memory?
Speaker 1 (14:47):
I just find it grating, like especially in the morning.
I don't know, it's just it's it's too much, It's
it's whiny.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
It's cool.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
I know people love here's the I don't want to
take away people's love of them with my distaste of
that certain sound.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
But I got you, Okay, thank you? Omar.
Speaker 5 (15:13):
Yeah, how long does this ban last? It's just forever
blanket ban Cranberry's.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
I just don't know why there's so much angst and upsetment.
Speaker 5 (15:25):
I feel like you have the there's some undiscovered trauma
that you're trying.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
You say this every football season around Week seven, you
say it all the time.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
You look at me like what are we dealing with here?
Speaker 1 (15:37):
Like you're trying to diagnose a mental patient in your
doc or whatever the hot hospital show is at the time.
You're the woman with the amnesia or you're the guy
with the borderline personality disorder. House you're somebody and you
play the role and you look at me, like.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
What's going on with her?
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Trying to figure out what sort she upset?
Speaker 5 (15:56):
Outside household poison you've been exposed to that's causing these symptoms? Yeah,
turns out it's just week seven.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Yeah, Like, were you having carburetor troubles last Thursday?
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Ah hah.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
Tom Wolfe, not that Tom Wolfe, and not that Tom Wolfe.
Not the author Tom Wolfe, He's been dead for seven years,
and not Tom Wolfe, the former governor of Pennsylvania. Tom
wolf was a homeless guy living in the Tenderloin, arrested
six times, finally sobered up after three months in jail,
see jail can work, and decided to choose treatment over
(16:31):
another stint behind bars. He is now the West Coast
director for the Foundation for Drug Policy Solutions and has
broken his silence about whether or not President Trump should
send the National Guard into San Francisco, which is something
he said he could possibly do yesterday in an interview
on Fox Business chair.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
But the governor who got thrown out of his business
by his family because he's a dope. But the Governor Pritzker,
he doesn't want us in. You know, if I were him,
a Democrat, were him, I'd say, come on in. What
do you have to lose to go to San Francisco Next?
We're then to go to San Francisco. The difference is,
I think they want us in San Francisco. San Francis
(17:12):
Cisco was truly one of the great cities of the world,
and then fifteen years ago.
Speaker 6 (17:18):
It went wrong.
Speaker 4 (17:19):
It went woke. Remember my statement anything woke? Is I
used a filthy well?
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Oh, he said, ps if I remember correctly in the original?
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Was that a rhyme?
Speaker 5 (17:30):
Fifteen years ago, Gavin Newsom was the mayor of San
Francisco and he was Trump was saying that fifteen years
ago is when things went bad.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Is this would have worked out for Trump's narrative had
this new mayor not come in and had Salesforce not
succeeded and port.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
A bunch of money into that city.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
And we're talking about that.
Speaker 5 (17:49):
Daniel Lurie has already said he does not want federal
troops in what this guy Tom wolf is suggesting, he
doesn't want to see federal troops. What he wants to
see is an expansion of federal law enforcement programs, something
called Operation Overdrive, which a couple of years ago allowed
agencies to help local police dismantle the drug networks.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
And he suggests.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
That that kind of work within San Francisco at least
takes out one of the major problems, which is outside
drug dealers coming into San Francisco on a rotating basis basic.
I mean, twenty four hours a day, you got three
shifts of people coming in from the East Bay a
lot of times and selling drugs throughout the city. Officials
(18:38):
estimate they're about eighty three hundred homeless people in San Francisco.
Eighty three hundred seems low, but like we were talking
about last segment, it's not a gigantic place.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Yeah no, Yeah, that seems heavy.
Speaker 5 (18:53):
But others have said before he became an addict, this
guy Tom Wolfe was a middle class guy, city job
surgery prescribed oxy codo, and within months he was addicted,
taking five hundred and sixty milligrams a day, couldn't get
enough of the oxy, so he switched to the cheaper alternative,
which was heroin and fentanyl. When he couldn't afford oxy.
(19:14):
His wife kicks him out, et cetera, et cetera. But
he says that Mayor Lourie Daniel Lurie is arguably the
best mayor we've had in a couple of decades as
of right now. He said, the problems with state laws,
appointed judges and legislators who do not know what's going
on in the city of San Francisco. So his concern
(19:37):
is that unless the drug traffic, the drug what would
you call it, environment in San Francisco, unless that's dealt with.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
It's a big city, there's always going to be some
sort of drug environment, whether it's just contained to the
Tenderloin or whether it's in you know, North Beach or yeah,
exactly is question. But I'm also not going to listen,
not to not to be rude, but I'm also not
going to listen to somebody who was drug addicted and
in the treatment world forever tell me that you know
(20:11):
he has the best opinion on what San Francisco should do.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
Well, I mean he's got he's got a perspective that
you can't ignore.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Sure, but it's not the only perspective.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Yeah, we've got a missing girl, a missing nine year
old girl whose mother is being really squirrely.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Melody Buzzard is her name.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
She's nine, hasn't been seen since August, and the mom's
not answering questions.
Speaker 5 (20:36):
This always ends well, right, I mean, we always see
the moms and the dads. Who's it's rare? I want
to talk to police. Yeah, that's that usually ends. Well, Well,
it's rare.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
When you've got the parents that are doing this, it
should be rare. It feels unnatural when a parent is
not all in looking for their missing child.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
And that's why we talk about it. It's unnatural.
Speaker 6 (21:00):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
Mariners Blue Jays.
Speaker 5 (21:09):
Game seven of the American League Championship C Series is
tonight just after five o'clock.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
They're playing in Toronto.
Speaker 5 (21:17):
The winner of this Game seven we'll go on to
face the Dodgers on Friday night in the World Series.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Kevin Costner's ex wife has remarried. Remember this was a messy,
messy divorce that he went through.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Christy hooked up with an old friend.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Yeah, married his former friend. Ooh, Josh Connor is his name.
He's a financier. He used to be friends with Kevin Costner.
They got married at Santa Ynez in a vineyard there
in Santa Barbara area. Kevin Costner man, he's going through
some rough patches. All the problems on Yellowstone, the fistfight
(21:56):
with his fictional son Jamie, the all the money he
poured into his projects, the movies that didn't pan out.
Hollywood seemed to have canceled him. There's been big articles
in the industry mags, Hollywood Reporter about Hollywood's break with
Kevin Costner.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
He's hard to work with and work with.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Yeah, now his ex wife is Mary and his friend
tough times. We just want him to know that we're
always a safe doors open.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Literally, the door is.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
The door is wide open. It has been for years.
And and you know what, Kevin, you didn't come in
here and we can just talk baseball.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
We don't have to talk about any of this crap.
We can just talk about baseball and horses.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
And the crossover between the two. Sure, they used to
make baseball's out of course, No, they did not horse heights.
That is not true. You're making things up.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
I would not make that up.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Is that that's a real story.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
Family members are desperately looking for a nine year old
girl up in Santa Barbara County. Melody Buzzard, a nine
year old, last scene in Lompolk in August. Here is
what okay. She was officially reported missing on Tuesday after
officials at school contacted the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Office
(23:16):
to report her absence. The girl had enrolled in an
independent learning program in August but had not been seen since,
so deputies went to the girl's home last week. Inside,
they made contact with Ashley, Melody's mother, but the girl
was nowhere around and mom, to use the quote, remains
(23:38):
uncooperative with the investigation now. Ashley the mother has had
a long history of mental illness and has refused to
let relatives visit nine year old Melody. Ashley is mentally unstable.
This is according to an aunt. Ashley is mentally unstable,
(24:01):
and my mom tried to get custody or at least
grandparent rights to visit Melody because Ashley the mom wasn't
letting our side of the family see her dad apparently
died in a motorcycle accident just after Melody was born,
but her sorry his dad's family is still interested in
hanging out with Melody. They had previously lived in Santa Maria,
(24:25):
but moved away shortly after the dad died, changed her
phone number, et cetera, and as of right now, dad's
side of the family is absolutely terrified that something awful
has happened to nine year old Melody. Another one of
the ants said that mom had struggled with mental illness
for years and had even attempted to take to take
(24:47):
her own life multiple times, and was previously hospitalized for treatment.
Now the dad's family says that they haven't seen her
since she was five years old.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Wow, so for four years that last year Thank you
though there, Get in there.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
Currently focused on putting up missing child posters around Lompoke,
sharing her story on social media, and hopes of generating
leads about the girl's whereabouts. The spokesperson for the Sheriff's
department said that the girl had previously been homeschooled for
several years, but the Department of Education the state has
no record of her filing any private school affidavit which
(25:25):
would is it which is a requirement if you are homeschooling.
The school district there in Lompok said that the girl
and her mother did visit Mission Valley Independent Study School
to initiate the registration a couple of months ago in August,
but that Melody then failed to pick up any assitements,
prompting the school to initiate outreach to her mother and
(25:47):
ultimately to law enforcement.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
So even if you.
Speaker 5 (25:51):
Are homeschooled, there are things that you have to do
to keep up to date. One of them, obviously, is
just simple picking up of you assignments. And if you
don't do it, that's one of the one of the
things that they'll do is they'll contact the Sheriff's department
and say that you haven't been to school like you're
supposed to.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
All right, when we come back, we will get an
update on swamp Watch.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
We've got your jeopardy question. It's pretty exciting.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
It does involve a horse, not the old horse hide
that we'd toss around with. Kevin, should he come into
studio and drugs are on tap as well, your chance
at one thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Listen talk about something for everyone.
Speaker 5 (26:33):
Gary and Shannon will continue right after this. You've been
listening to The Gary and Shannon Show. You can always
hear us live on KFI AM six forty nine am
to one pm every Monday through Friday, and anytime on
demand on the iHeartRadio ap
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand on.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
The iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
We've got a zombie apocalypse to tell you about coming
up in about a half an hour. So if you're
looking for something to look forward to on this Monday,
boom baby, when is it coming? Is this the Atlas
AI three sixty.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Three I atlas?
Speaker 4 (00:27):
No?
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Do we think it was part of the Atlas three
I sixty three eye atlas that broke off and hit
that plane going from Denver to.
Speaker 5 (00:37):
Possibly, I don't know why it would have sent a
wait a minute, that makes perfect sense. It would send
a probe to go ahead as sort of a scout.
They have no idea what to hit that airplane. There's
nothing up. It's thirty six thirty.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Six thousand feet and something hit the windshield of the
airplane Denver to San Francisco. Was it Denver La, Denver La?
That had to have that plane land in Utah? What
was it that hit the windshield of that plane at
thirty six thousand feet If it was not Atlas three
I three.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
Sixty orfo that was part of three eye Atlas three sixty.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
I thought that Atlas three I three sixty was a
probe itself.
Speaker 5 (01:23):
Do you mean there's something even bigger? Well, I thought,
I mean I know that we talked about it.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
I'm not ready for that.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Can you be serious about this for a moment?
Speaker 1 (01:37):
He said, go on, this is a maybe comet, right,
but that has powers to light up?
Speaker 6 (01:47):
Right.
Speaker 5 (01:47):
There are things that are very uncommet Like about that
is twelve miles long. Yeah, that is headed here in
nine days. Yes, and we've got a plane getting dinged
at thirty six thousand feet.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah, I don't think it's crazy. Kemtrail talked about to
talk about the two being connected.
Speaker 5 (02:06):
Well, except that three I Atlas is still millions of
miles away from us. How does this end a probe
that much? And furthermore, where are we on that it's
still common?
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Like?
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Where does the GPS say this thing is gonna.
Speaker 6 (02:24):
By?
Speaker 5 (02:25):
They it's somewhere bits closer to the Earth than Mars.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
I think is what the last I saw. That's what
I think.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Okay, I'm not nothing to me.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
It's out there. Don't worry about it.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Okay, So there's no there's no chance it gets close.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
I didn't say, no chance.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
That's why I'm asking where we are. Very small chance.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
Yeah, I'm hoping it gets close really yeah, just enough
to like clause a breeze or like.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
I'd like to see change and what we're doing here. Okay, yeah,
see Elmer's with me.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Chaos.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
I'd love the chaos. It would be good for ratings.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Right, we'd just be talking about every day, like, oh,
they would be here, we would have them on clearly.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
You'd convince them of what to come on the show.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Oh yeah, ye, yeah, that would be a problem.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
You'd read your mind. It'll be like this is going to.
Speaker 5 (03:17):
Be three I Atlas will come closest to the Sun
next week, October twenty ninth, right, at a distance of
one point three six a U and astronomical units.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
I believe it's what is.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
That one hundred and twenty six million miles from the Sun,
which is between the orbits of Earth and March.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Yeah. It used.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
It appears to have either originated from the thin disc
or the thick disc part of the milky Way.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Oh, that sheds a lot of light up right from
Now you have.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
A better idea now that you know the origin. It's
really fills in some dark hearts for you.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
Laay Or Bass is marking about a thousand days out
from the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in twenty
eight she's announced what is called the Games for All
Vision plan, All.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
As opposed to as opposed to who has been left out?
Speaker 5 (04:16):
I don't know, she emphasized. Our goal is to make
sure the international event benefits us for generations to come.
That this is my vision, she said, and LA made
better for all Angelinos. We will accelerate street projects, streamline
city processes in permitting requirements, and make sure that we're
taking advantage of the economic impact. When we welcome the world,
(04:37):
LA will shine on the world stage, she says. This
is the third time that the Olympics are going to
be here. Of course, in nineteen thirty two we got
about a million dollars in surplus to host the games.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
This may be the chaos we're hoping for the Olympics
descending up. It'll be fine, it'll end up being fine.
But if you're in the no and you're sitting at
the ground zero of all of it, we'll be able
to see the chaos unfold and have better idea of
what's going on. As opposed to what it'll look like
(05:10):
on television, like we'll be able to see all the
warts and the pimples and the bruises, because it's not
going to go off without a hitch, Like, there's gonna
be some issues. We are so unorganized. It feels like
right now on a governmental level, that.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
It's gonna be hard for this to come off.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
Well, well, think of the I don't want to bad
mouth the Rose Paray because it's an incredible event, but
there have got to be things that go wrong with
the Rose Parade. But if you're living in Topeka and
you're watching the Rose Parade first thing on January first,
you think California is a beautiful place because all you're
looking at is Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena. We want a
(05:52):
beautiful blue sky morning.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
We see the people that they have to host the
Rose Parade try to fill for twenty extra seconds, and
we know that there's a float that broke down around
the corner right Yes.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
You know, Bob and Stephanie they made it seamless.
Speaker 5 (06:08):
And that's one seamless two and a half hour event.
This is going to be two and a half weeks.
I mean, Bobby just for the Olympics, let alone the Paralympics.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Bob and Stephanie, you were hoping for a breakdown. You
wanted to hear them go at each other like cats
and dogs in the most wonderful way. You loved the banter.
You welcome the banter between Bob and Stephanie. These new people,
Dick and Sandy. I don't want to hear them banter
because they're phony. Bob and Stephanie. You know when they
when they got into it, they got into it, and
(06:38):
we saw all the warts and the bruises, and they
were real Dick and Sandy. You know, maybe this is
the year where they finally say to each other, you know,
I don't like you, and then I don't like you either.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
Yeah, well you smell like coffee and whiskey.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Yeah. Who were they again? Who was that? The anchors?
Speaker 1 (06:57):
So you have a couple pops, Oh, come back, I
don't know what happens.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
That's the hard part of doing a six o'clock newscast
and then at eleven o'clock news, right, a lot of
time in there for you.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
I would have never been able to do that a
million years.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
All right, San Francisco may be coming back. By the way,
We're back, baby.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
San Francisco is coming back because I've had a few
trips there in recent years. I used to go all
the time, used to love going to San Francisco to
spend the weekend up there, and then it just became
a drug infested hellish shut down mess of a place,
and it was sad and I didn't go. My mom's
had some hospital stuff recently, and it feels like it's
coming back. It feels like after they took that turn
(07:40):
into progressive hell, they've got things right again.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
We'll talk about that when we come back. And a
chance to win a thousand bucks is coming up.
Speaker 6 (07:48):

Speaker 1 (08:31):
You're like naked. I don't think I've seen your arms
in years. Excuse me, what's going on?
Speaker 6 (08:36):
Mind?
Speaker 5 (08:36):
You take off all your clothes, push ups in the
brake so that I can warm up.
Speaker 6 (08:41):
A little bit. It's so.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
The reason I say that is if you haven't known
me to surprise you.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
I'm shocked. I haven't seen that much skin from you
in a long time. Gary's just wearing a short sleeved
shirt right now. But I feel accosted by the amount
of skin because in here we have to bundle.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Like it's.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
A ski town because it's very cold, so we're usually
he's usually in three different layers. I haven't seen skin.
I haven't seen his arms, honestly, probably in three years.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
I'm playing the part of Sir Edmund Hillary and you're
playing the part of tens Ignorgay.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Okay, I like my role. I like being Tensignorgay.
Speaker 5 (09:19):
Yeah, I a lot of ascents onto Everest.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Crime rates in San Francisco have dropped to their lowest
levels in decades and continue to fall. This is saying
it's welcome news to people who love San Francisco and
people who live in San Francisco is a gross understatement.
Burglaries down twenty eight percent this year. The homeless tents
(09:49):
that block the sidewalks have been reduced to near nothing,
especially in the areas where you notice them the most.
The tourists, the high traffic areas in kind transit ridership
are up.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
At least part of this has to do with the
AI boom. Tech companies for the last fifty years have
been in Northern California, Silicon Valley and San Francisco, and
it looks like the AI boom is taking advantage of
the fact that right now you could scoop up some
of these office built well, a couple of years ago,
you could scoop up some of these office buildings in
(10:27):
downtown San Francisco for an absolute deal and bet on
the fact that there would be some rebound to the
office commercial real estate market there.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Now.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
We've talked also about Daniel Lurie, the new mayor, his
first term mayor, he talks about these huge companies Open
AI and Thropic, which is also AI, and said that
when he talks to other mayors, they always tell him
that they would die to have just one of those companies.
And in San Francisco they've got dozens and dozens of
(11:00):
those companies. So it's not just that the companies are there,
it's the employees are all there, all of them very
well paid, all of them can afford things. Rent prices
have gone up, which for some people as an indicator
of inflation, but for others it's an indicator of supply
and demand, and that demand is up for those places,
those rental places in San Francisco.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
It's kind of a weird feeling because if you are
a San Franciscan native and you've seen what Salesforce has
done to the skyline, you've got mixed feelings because of
what Salesforce has brought to the city, but how it's
forever changed the city and Salesforce they are the home
(11:42):
to that leaning tower right that it used to be
the Trans America building that was the star of the
San Francisco Skyline and now it's that Salesforce building, which
a lot of us from there think is ugly. Why
did you have to change the skyline? Like what is
wrong with you? But there they are, and last week
Salesforce unveiled a fifteen billion dollar investment over the next
(12:06):
five years. And driving around the Sales Force campus there,
which I did recently because it was near the hospital
where my mom was, it is impressive. It is like
the live work play dream for a lot of these cities.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
It's just a bustling area.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
There's shopping, there's food, there's work, there's transit. They seem
to have done it right. And now Salesforce is seeing
that and they're putting even more money into this workforce
development program there in the city of San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
With that fifteen billion dollar investment.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
You know, it sounds like Daniel Lurie as much criticism
as has been launched at San Francisco in the last
couple of years. Daniel Lourie's not standing out there at
a podium and yelling everything's fine, We're all fine, stop
criticizing San Francisco. He says, I don't want to sit
here and just say every thing is perfect.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
It's not. We have a lot of work to do.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
He said that they have to continue to tackle drug use,
address the shortage of affordable housing, bringing more retail back,
further cut the red tape that can often be a
red flag for business and keep them out of town.
Foot traffic from city visitors and ridership on bart the
Bay Area Rapid Transit system had been going up, and
they said, the city is now counting and this is
(13:24):
a funny the count one hundred and sixty eight homeless tents.
That's down from two hundred and forty two. So that's good.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
That's a huge decrease because San Francisco is not It's
seven square miles.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Yeah, it's not a big that's not a big.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Place, which is why when there were two hundred and
fifty tents it was notable.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
You could see it.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
There is although, as you know, as rosy as this
Wall Street Journal article is about sort of the the
new trajectory for a rebirth of San Francisco. There is
a guy who has some time there in the city
itself and said that he survived the drug addled life
(14:08):
on the streets of San Francisco by the skin of
his teeth, and that he actually doesn't believe in this
rebirth of San Francisco. We'll talk about what Tom Wolfe says.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Well, Tom wolf has been on.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Drugs for decades. Well there's that.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
That's a tough that's a tough road to hoe out
of that, out of that life.
Speaker 6 (14:28):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
A M. Six forty.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
I ban the Cranberries from this show.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Yeah, sure, I did.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
I mean, I don't want to overstep is it is.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
It bring back painful memory?
Speaker 1 (14:47):
I just find it grating, like especially in the morning.
I don't know, it's just it's it's too much, It's
it's whiny.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
It's cool.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
I know people love here's the I don't want to
take away people's love of them with my distaste of
that certain sound.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
But I got you, Okay, thank you? Omar.
Speaker 5 (15:13):
Yeah, how long does this ban last? It's just forever
blanket ban Cranberry's.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
I just don't know why there's so much angst and upsetment.
Speaker 5 (15:25):
I feel like you have the there's some undiscovered trauma
that you're trying.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
You say this every football season around Week seven, you
say it all the time.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
You look at me like what are we dealing with here?
Speaker 1 (15:37):
Like you're trying to diagnose a mental patient in your
doc or whatever the hot hospital show is at the time.
You're the woman with the amnesia or you're the guy
with the borderline personality disorder. House you're somebody and you
play the role and you look at me, like.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
What's going on with her?
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Trying to figure out what sort she upset?
Speaker 5 (15:56):
Outside household poison you've been exposed to that's causing these symptoms? Yeah,
turns out it's just week seven.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Yeah, Like, were you having carburetor troubles last Thursday?
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Ah hah.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
Tom Wolfe, not that Tom Wolfe, and not that Tom Wolfe.
Not the author Tom Wolfe, He's been dead for seven years,
and not Tom Wolfe, the former governor of Pennsylvania. Tom
wolf was a homeless guy living in the Tenderloin, arrested
six times, finally sobered up after three months in jail,
see jail can work, and decided to choose treatment over
(16:31):
another stint behind bars. He is now the West Coast
director for the Foundation for Drug Policy Solutions and has
broken his silence about whether or not President Trump should
send the National Guard into San Francisco, which is something
he said he could possibly do yesterday in an interview
on Fox Business chair.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
But the governor who got thrown out of his business
by his family because he's a dope. But the Governor Pritzker,
he doesn't want us in. You know, if I were him,
a Democrat, were him, I'd say, come on in. What
do you have to lose to go to San Francisco Next?
We're then to go to San Francisco. The difference is,
I think they want us in San Francisco. San Francis
(17:12):
Cisco was truly one of the great cities of the world,
and then fifteen years ago.
Speaker 6 (17:18):
It went wrong.
Speaker 4 (17:19):
It went woke. Remember my statement anything woke? Is I
used a filthy well?
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Oh, he said, ps if I remember correctly in the original?
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Was that a rhyme?
Speaker 5 (17:30):
Fifteen years ago, Gavin Newsom was the mayor of San
Francisco and he was Trump was saying that fifteen years
ago is when things went bad.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Is this would have worked out for Trump's narrative had
this new mayor not come in and had Salesforce not
succeeded and port.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
A bunch of money into that city.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
And we're talking about that.
Speaker 5 (17:49):
Daniel Lurie has already said he does not want federal
troops in what this guy Tom wolf is suggesting, he
doesn't want to see federal troops. What he wants to
see is an expansion of federal law enforcement programs, something
called Operation Overdrive, which a couple of years ago allowed
agencies to help local police dismantle the drug networks.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
And he suggests.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
That that kind of work within San Francisco at least
takes out one of the major problems, which is outside
drug dealers coming into San Francisco on a rotating basis basic.
I mean, twenty four hours a day, you got three
shifts of people coming in from the East Bay a
lot of times and selling drugs throughout the city. Officials
(18:38):
estimate they're about eighty three hundred homeless people in San Francisco.
Eighty three hundred seems low, but like we were talking
about last segment, it's not a gigantic place.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Yeah no, Yeah, that seems heavy.
Speaker 5 (18:53):
But others have said before he became an addict, this
guy Tom Wolfe was a middle class guy, city job
surgery prescribed oxy codo, and within months he was addicted,
taking five hundred and sixty milligrams a day, couldn't get
enough of the oxy, so he switched to the cheaper alternative,
which was heroin and fentanyl. When he couldn't afford oxy.
(19:14):
His wife kicks him out, et cetera, et cetera. But
he says that Mayor Lourie Daniel Lurie is arguably the
best mayor we've had in a couple of decades as
of right now. He said, the problems with state laws,
appointed judges and legislators who do not know what's going
on in the city of San Francisco. So his concern
(19:37):
is that unless the drug traffic, the drug what would
you call it, environment in San Francisco, unless that's dealt with.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
It's a big city, there's always going to be some
sort of drug environment, whether it's just contained to the
Tenderloin or whether it's in you know, North Beach or yeah,
exactly is question. But I'm also not going to listen,
not to not to be rude, but I'm also not
going to listen to somebody who was drug addicted and
in the treatment world forever tell me that you know
(20:11):
he has the best opinion on what San Francisco should do.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
Well, I mean he's got he's got a perspective that
you can't ignore.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Sure, but it's not the only perspective.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Yeah, we've got a missing girl, a missing nine year
old girl whose mother is being really squirrely.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Melody Buzzard is her name.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
She's nine, hasn't been seen since August, and the mom's
not answering questions.
Speaker 5 (20:36):
This always ends well, right, I mean, we always see
the moms and the dads. Who's it's rare? I want
to talk to police. Yeah, that's that usually ends. Well, Well,
it's rare.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
When you've got the parents that are doing this, it
should be rare. It feels unnatural when a parent is
not all in looking for their missing child.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
And that's why we talk about it. It's unnatural.
Speaker 6 (21:00):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
Mariners Blue Jays.
Speaker 5 (21:09):

Speaker 1 (21:24):
Kevin Costner's ex wife has remarried. Remember this was a messy,
messy divorce that he went through.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Christy hooked up with an old friend.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Yeah, married his former friend. Ooh, Josh Connor is his name.
He's a financier. He used to be friends with Kevin Costner.
They got married at Santa Ynez in a vineyard there
in Santa Barbara area. Kevin Costner man, he's going through
some rough patches. All the problems on Yellowstone, the fistfight
(21:56):
with his fictional son Jamie, the all the money he
poured into his projects, the movies that didn't pan out.
Hollywood seemed to have canceled him. There's been big articles
in the industry mags, Hollywood Reporter about Hollywood's break with
Kevin Costner.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
He's hard to work with and work with.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Yeah, now his ex wife is Mary and his friend
tough times. We just want him to know that we're
always a safe doors open.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Literally, the door is.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
The door is wide open. It has been for years.
And and you know what, Kevin, you didn't come in
here and we can just talk baseball.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
We don't have to talk about any of this crap.
We can just talk about baseball and horses.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
And the crossover between the two. Sure, they used to
make baseball's out of course, No, they did not horse heights.
That is not true. You're making things up.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
I would not make that up.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Is that that's a real story.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
Family members are desperately looking for a nine year old
girl up in Santa Barbara County. Melody Buzzard, a nine
year old, last scene in Lompolk in August. Here is
what okay. She was officially reported missing on Tuesday after
officials at school contacted the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Office
(23:16):
to report her absence. The girl had enrolled in an
independent learning program in August but had not been seen since,
so deputies went to the girl's home last week. Inside,
they made contact with Ashley, Melody's mother, but the girl
was nowhere around and mom, to use the quote, remains
(23:38):
uncooperative with the investigation now. Ashley the mother has had
a long history of mental illness and has refused to
let relatives visit nine year old Melody. Ashley is mentally unstable.
This is according to an aunt. Ashley is mentally unstable,
(24:01):
and my mom tried to get custody or at least
grandparent rights to visit Melody because Ashley the mom wasn't
letting our side of the family see her dad apparently
died in a motorcycle accident just after Melody was born,
but her sorry his dad's family is still interested in
hanging out with Melody. They had previously lived in Santa Maria,
(24:25):
but moved away shortly after the dad died, changed her
phone number, et cetera, and as of right now, dad's
side of the family is absolutely terrified that something awful
has happened to nine year old Melody. Another one of
the ants said that mom had struggled with mental illness
for years and had even attempted to take to take
(24:47):
her own life multiple times, and was previously hospitalized for treatment.
Now the dad's family says that they haven't seen her
since she was five years old.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Wow, so for four years that last year Thank you
though there, Get in there.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
Currently focused on putting up missing child posters around Lompoke,
sharing her story on social media, and hopes of generating
leads about the girl's whereabouts. The spokesperson for the Sheriff's
department said that the girl had previously been homeschooled for
several years, but the Department of Education the state has
no record of her filing any private school affidavit which
(25:25):
would is it which is a requirement if you are homeschooling.
The school district there in Lompok said that the girl
and her mother did visit Mission Valley Independent Study School
to initiate the registration a couple of months ago in August,
but that Melody then failed to pick up any assitements,
prompting the school to initiate outreach to her mother and
(25:47):
ultimately to law enforcement.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
So even if you.
Speaker 5 (25:51):
Are homeschooled, there are things that you have to do
to keep up to date. One of them, obviously, is
just simple picking up of you assignments. And if you
don't do it, that's one of the one of the
things that they'll do is they'll contact the Sheriff's department
and say that you haven't been to school like you're
supposed to.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
All right, when we come back, we will get an
update on swamp Watch.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
We've got your jeopardy question. It's pretty exciting.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
It does involve a horse, not the old horse hide
that we'd toss around with. Kevin, should he come into
studio and drugs are on tap as well, your chance
at one thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Listen talk about something for everyone.
