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 (00:09):
It's time for Strange Science. It's like weird science, but strange. Well,
we've known that there are potential disasters lurking in the
skies above us. Right now, there is a Chinese space
crew stranded at their space station because of some sort
(00:34):
of pieces of space debris that blew into their capsule.
This is a three member team. They were scheduled to
return to Earth today, but their mission has been extended
as engineers conduct impact analysis and risk assessments on the
damaged spacecraft.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Is that right? Is that what they're doing? Or are
they their spine?
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (00:54):
I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
How do you know?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
I don't for certain, but maybe I'm being paid by
the Chinese?
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Are they just hovering over America?
Speaker 2 (01:02):
The crew's return capsules believed to have been hit by
tiny fragments of space junk they say that have been
increasingly hazardous in low Earth orbit. The Chinese Space Organization
did not specify the extent of the damage, or even
what repairs would be possible or were required if it
(01:23):
cannot be repaired. The protocol states that the shen Zoo
twenty crew would use the shen Zoo twenty one team
capsule to return to Earth. They regularly send crews of
three Chinese astronauts two and from this space station for
six months missions. The Shenzu twenty astronauts did arrive in April.
(01:45):
They were nearing the end of the mission when this
thing occurred. Their replacements already docked with the station, so
there are others up there. But the return craft that
they were supposed to take down may have giant gaping
holes in it.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Parts three eye atlas are missing.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
What we better get this straight. This is important.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
I wanted you to play the thing which part parts
of three eye atlas are missing? No again, no, no,
not much No, watch that smell damn No.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I don't know which one you want me.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
To play, like the mystery, like where is the.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
No this one?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Yeah, we have an alien spacecraft that was right next
to the sun, blocked our view of it using the sun,
and now is much smaller, And you don't think that's suspicious.
Where did the rest of it go?
Speaker 2 (02:56):
We'll find out in strange science. We're in the middle
of straight science. Before we get to three I Atlas,
did you know why do you know why we sleep
through the night now?
Speaker 1 (03:09):
As oppose you say now, as opposed to when?
Speaker 2 (03:12):
For most of human history, Oh, continuous eight hour sleep
was not a thing.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
We sleep through the night now because of stuff in
our foods.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Possibly each of the sleeps the first sleep, in second sleep.
That's the way we used to do. It would last
several hours, separated by a gap of wakefulness for an
hour or more in the middle of the night. Historical
records we know from all over the world, Africa, Asia,
Europe describe how after nightfall, families would go to bed
and then wake up about midnight for a bit and
(03:47):
then go back to sleep until dawn.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
My brother in law used to do this, really, he
used to, Well, he would, he would fall asleep, and
they'd get up in the middle of the night and
eat something and then go back to bed. Breaking the
night into two parts probably changed how time felt. And
they said the quiet interval gave nights a clear middle,
which could make long winter evenings feel less continuous and
(04:10):
a little bit easier to manage. That midnight interval was
not dead time. Some people would get up they'd tend
to chores like stirring the fire, checking on the animals
or something like that.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
You used to do this on cruise ships. You'd have
your dinner at you know, the five or seven sitting,
you would go to bed, and then you'd wake up
for the midnight buffet and you hit that thing one
more time sounds off, and then you go back to
sleep and get up.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
And man, I just added four and a half pounds.
You just say, artificial lighting is one of the reasons
why we now sleep through the night because you could
stay up later.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Okay, yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
You didn't have to go to bed when the sun
went has.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Everybody want wanted to go to bed at like six pm?
Like I have this week?
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Are you going to tell me the the time changes
really now to.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Effect the darkness gets me ready for bed?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Yes, Like it's like it's.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Biological, you know, it's just like, okay, it's time for
sleep time. And so now the darkness hits, you know,
on my way home from work here about one thirty pm.
Not really, but you know what I mean. And I'm
suddenly I'm like, oh, I'm gonna get into bed, you know,
and my husband's like it's six thirty, Like, what are
you talking about?
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Factory schedules encouraged a single block of rest. By the
early twentieth century, the idea of eight interrupted hours had
replaced the centuries old rhythm of too sleep, and they
said that in multi week sleep studies that simulate long
winter nights in darkness and remove clocks or evening light,
people often end up adopting the two sleeps with a
(05:45):
calm waking interval in the middle of it.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
AI has worked its way into the animal kingdom and
it could mean disaster for us and our animal friends.
There has been a plethora of AI narrated animal slop
that has proliferated social media, and the problem with the
AI animal Kingdom stuff is that it's phony. They reflect
(06:14):
these videos characteristics, behaviors, habits, or relationships between species.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
That are not real.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
In one uber viral clip hundreds of millions of views
on this thing, a gang of rabbits can be seen
jumping on a trampoline in tandem. The static background and
the fact that some of the balancing bunnies disappear mid
hop or dead giveaways that the clip is slop.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
These are ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
And they show us animals with human behaviors that are
far from reality. They also lead you to believe, probably
that you can take a bunch of bunnies and make
them hop on a trampoline, or that if you do that,
the bunnies will be chill about it and they won't
eat your face.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Bunnies don't often eat your face.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
To me, messing with the animal kingdom with AI is
just a form of Darwinism. If you believe in the
video on your phone that shows you can go hug
the bear in your backyard and you try it, that's
on you for being a dumb ass.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
If you can, and you should with the bear, it
should be.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
The end of the line right there, then of the line, sir, so,
just to wrap up this whole three I at list thing.
We don't know where the rest of it is, and
it could be here. They could be here, they could
be walking amongst us. Here's the wet we're dumb because
we're looking at animal AI videos.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
The part that is that has freaked me out the
most in the last forty eight hours is that it
has changed course slightly, undergoing what they say is non
gravitational acceleration or acceleration that cannot be accounted for by
gravity alone.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
And we're those Chinese astronomers. Ut, huh, what are they
doing over there?
Speaker 2 (07:57):
They're going to catch a whole plate full of three
eye at lists right in the shops.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
What if they're in cahoots with them?
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Get it straight?
Speaker 1 (08:05):
But what if the Aliens came by and they're like, you
know what, these Chinese people, they seem to have it
all together, and then they're now they're collaborating.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
It's only matter of time anyway, isn't it till what
till they take over the Chinese? No, the Aliens, with
the help Chinese.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Has already taken over.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Look at TikTok. It's great facts.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Apparently, San Francisco has long been a haven for dog lovers,
and now people are saying that there are some taking
advantage of the situation, exploiting the city's tolerance. That paws
are up on the counters of coffee shops and no
one flinches. Croissants are being stolen out of the hands
(08:54):
of hungry diners by hungry or black labs. The aisles
of Target and Trader Joe's are full of service animals,
service animals. How San Francisco is this Like you can
shoot up on battery and nobody looks, but you steal
(09:15):
a Cryssan. Your dog steals her croissant at the overpriced
coffee shop, and oh, throw the book at them.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Chandra moved to San Francisco in part of in part
because of how much San Francisco was known for loving dogs.
She's a biotech worker. She's the owner of Clementine, a
docs and with sixty four thousand Instagram followers, My dog
does not have that many Instagram followers.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
I feel like, she says, she takes Clementine everywhere she's permitted, restaurant's, clothing, boutiques.
I kind of feel like, and I don't know, because
I'm not a dog owner, but you kind of got
to follow the rule of just because you can, doesn't
mean you should take your dog to every single place.
I mean, I remember we were at a restaurant. I
don't remember where we were, but there was a dog.
(10:01):
It was a like a nice restaurant, and there was
a dog just perched on the seat at the table
next to us, just sitting there.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Were you was the dog weod doing anything making noise,
causing problems.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
No, but you pay a certain amount of money to
go out and have a nice meal. You don't want
to be eating, you know, with somebody else's dog right there.
You're constantly wearing, is a dog going to jump up
and eat my prime rib?
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Like?
Speaker 1 (10:28):
What's going to happen here? Not that I would do that.
I don't order prime rey, Wow, I don't. But it
was kind of like that kind of a place like house,
the prime rib type of a place, and there's a
dog sitting there, and it's like, it's just it's uncivilized. Frankly,
I eat dog.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
I eat dogs. Sorry, I'm in the need that isolated.
I eat dog. I eat almost every day with a
dog in the room.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Yes, but if you were paying to go to a
meal with your wife, would you want to eat with
someone else's dog at your lap level?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I do suppose. I do suppose that there are two
things that would play into that. Number One, it's not
your own dog lap level. I don't need. I don't
need the dog up on the chair right.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
It's one thing if the dog's at someone's feet and
it's a helper dog or whatever. Yeah, but sitting at
the table on.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
A chair, Come on, listen, and I'll say this. I
love the idea of taking my dog places like I'll
take my dog to home depot or Low's or something
like that, because there's plenty of space. He's even if
I do see another dog in the store or something
like that, there's plenty of opportunity for me to go
the other way. And there's no you know, there's no
tangling between the dogs. But if you have a dog
(11:40):
that's not very well behaved, or you're not certain of
how that dog would behave, you got to be really
careful about where you take that thing because it's not
just you and whatever comfort or you want to show
off your dog. I get all that, but you better
be careful about what you do with that dog.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Let me ask you this. I saw in the a
is out in Palm Springs and we're at a hotel
having dinner, and there is a couple. I want to
say they were maybe thirty years old, a good looking
couple in at leisure where fit looked like they had
just been out for a run maybe and that's why.
But they had a dog in a stroller. Now, the
(12:17):
stroller probably costs more than well, certainly the strollers that
we were put in as a youth that were all
hand me downs and probably had no safety standards. But
this stroller looked like it went for the cost of
a Maserati like it was. You can tell a nice
stroller when you see one. And inside was a dog,
and I'm thinking, maybe this dog has two legs, Maybe
(12:37):
this dog's got three legs, Maybe this dog's an issue.
They take the dog out of the stroller, the dog
runs around, It's a small dog, it's got all the legs,
and then it hops back in its.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Stroller and off they go.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
I understand a stroller for a dog if it's somebody
who needs a new hip that has a dog, or
the dog needs a new hip. But where do you
come down on people putting their dogs in high end
strollers just because.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Well, I will say this, it sounds like those people
are very active and sometimes small dogs cannot keep up.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
With right, So maybe they had just gone for a run.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Yeah, hey, maybe you get a different dog if that's
your lifestyle and that's what you're going to do, and
you're going to run five miles a day and you
want your dog to run with. You get a dog
that will do that, don't buy one that has to
be in a stroller with you that I can't with stroller.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
So it didn't seem like they had been for a run.
I mean, it was the heat of the day in
Palm Springs. I think that they just use that stroller
all the time with that dog. It's not the first
time I've seen people with the stroller on the dog.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Dogs are generally lazy. We think of them as they
lay around all the time, but dogs need physical action.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
They love it. We lay around all the time if
we could, but our bodies actually like to move.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Well, speak for yourself mine.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Is that why it's fighting back?
Speaker 2 (14:00):
The body's fighting.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
You are all buttoned up today, you're keeping the whole.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
I'm cold. It is so flipping cold in here all
the time. I wore a shirt yesterday, but I didn't
wear a jacket or a sweatshirt over the top of it.
I was cold all day, all day.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Yeah, you should leave a jacket in the office. I've
got a couple in there you could wear all thank you.
I have that Pink Ladies one from Halloween a couple
of years ago.
Speaker 4 (14:29):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Hello, how are you?
Speaker 1 (14:39):
This is such a truney how you my gosh, it's
so exciting. Okay, Oh we are such big fans. Just
letting you know, huge fans, huge, huge, big fan you
just saying that. All right, So this this will be
about what ten minutes you know.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
You're on a tights cat. I'll get you out. We
will jump right in. Leanne, let's start with that. Let's
start with the basics. What are your plans for Thanksgiving?
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Honey? Everybody in the world coming to my house, all
my extended family and my kids, friends that don't have
anywhere to go. And I'm already studying about I think
I'm gonna do a brisket. I'm gonna do a ham.
I'll Chuck Morton gets a ham from his work every year,
and he's determined for U sate that ham. Well, then
(15:32):
I'm gonna I've gotta have turkey. We all have to
have turkey. And then yeah, I got a brisket on
my mind, y'all. I'll have everybody at my house and
my grand babies and all land.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
It's nice to have a Thanksgiving where you have the
island of misfit toys because it makes for good stories
around the table.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
I know, and not everybody can eat poork, and so
that mixes it up. For us Southern people, we like plant,
you know, if every body likes to come and from
different cultures and different ethnicities, We've all of a sudden
got all these precious young people that come and sign
with us, and we love it and anti overdo. I
(16:13):
like to overdo.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
I do like that. You also have the four Southern
food groups represented with the ham, the brisket, the turkey,
and then something creamy problem.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Me mac and shee Yeah, mac and cheese, A lot
of creamy, a lot of creamy, a lot of yellow y'all.
There will be a lot of cas roles, and there
will be mac and cheese, yes, and all kinds of
potatoes in different ways. Yes, advance of it.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
We first fell in love, well, I first fell in
love with Leanne Morgan in twenty twenty three with her
special on Netflix, I'm every Woman. And then this week
a new special, What a Treat Unspeakable Things, premiered on
Netflix November fourth, and I learned that I love you
even more because I've learned Leanne, that you and I,
without spoiling it, have the same fallback plan when it
(16:59):
comes to a career in the form of a strip club.
And that's all I'll say.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
Well, and the one I went to, Yeah, no, that's
the first.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
That's the first strip club I've ever been to. When
I first went to Atlanta about thirteen years ago, one
of my girlfriends from there, I've got to take you
to this place, just like.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
You said in your special.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
And I walked in.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
And oh, holy hell, oh my lord, it is dump
I've never seen before. And I know there was a
serial killer that not there another one. I looked into
his dad eyes and I don't think I'll ever go back.
But I hear of Painble saying all the time, Oh
Goldie Hawn goes every time she goes into townl I'm thinking,
(17:44):
what go? And you want to go into play ion Leah.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
And you mentioned that you spent some time here in
southern California. Obviously you did the Netflix sitcom Leanne, which
we also loved. It was fantastic, can't wait for the
second season come out. But what when you spent time
here in southern California. I mean it was an extended,
extended period of time. You talked very lovingly about some
of the places that you visited. Are you coming back?
(18:11):
Are you going to get a house out here? Are
you going to spend half your time here? Is it
enough to draw you back?
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Oh you don't. I'm getting it. I'm gonna get to
do a second season. So I'll rent a house January
through eightful and I am thrilled over it. And I mean,
I've always loved California and been mesmerized by it, but
living there, I mean, I don't mean to sound safety,
but I just the people are precious. Everybody was wonderful
(18:38):
to me. It is I think it's one of the
prettiest state in the Union. It is stunning. I had
a bowl. I cannot wait to go back. Now. Chuck
Morgan will come in and out and you know, try
to grab my brands while I'm trying to learn line.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Oh my goodness, means he loves you.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
I say that to my wife all the time. Listen,
you'd rather me do.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
That than not, right, I guess so. I guess so,
my darling. But I heard that you're an actor too.
Oh that's an anchor.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
That's quite a stretch. I do community theater. A couple
of times. I've done that, but I don't know about it.
I don't know if i'd put that on my resume.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Okay, well, let me tell you that when I had
my I had four deals for sitcoms before this one
made it because I've been doing standing up for twenty
five years and one of them was with Matt Williams
that created Rosanne and Home Improvement. And do you remember
that wonderful actress that played the wife on Home Improvement? Sure? Yes,
they got her from community theater.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Oh my goodness, Garrett, you'll know it.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
I didn't know that. But if you need I'm available.
I mean every day after one pm. That's don't don't
text me. I'll get audition walck cycle pretty quickly.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Okay, Well, do you all have to get up at
three o'clock in the morning and be on the radio
and then you get.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Off of one Well, we get up at about eight
forty five.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
That's law. It's that it's not a real job, Leanne,
it's not a real job. Okay, Okay, Leah and Morgan,
you've got to check this out. I mean, I bet
you hear this all the time. But you have this
quality about you as a person where I just feel
like I know you right away. And it's so refreshing
to see someone on TV the who's such an open book,
(20:26):
who's so warm, and you feel like you're spending time
with a girlfriend or a relative that you actually enjoy,
And it's just refreshing to actually feel like you know someone,
to know that that's who exactly that person is.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Well, thank you, my darling. And I get that a lot.
And I tell you, y'all, I think I know that.
I got that from my mom, Alosle and she's eighty
two and she goes to the Senior Says's twice a
week and everybody wants to be her partner because she
is an unbelievable card player and she's very popular. But
(21:01):
she's always been sweet and kind and funny, and I
think and likable. And I've got a lot of flaws, y'all.
I can't do math. And if y'all saw my dance,
y'all would say, oh, my lord, is she okay? I'm
very unorganized. Chuck Morgan stays mad at me over it,
but I'm not a buck. And I got that from
(21:22):
low Seale I and I do I feel like I
can make friends easy? And I really and truly love people,
and I honestly, and I know this sounds sappy, y'all,
but when I'm on tour, I look out in that
audience and I think I'd be best friends day woman.
I would go to jazz or science. Honey, we would
go and eat lunch for four hours. We would have
a ball. I do I feel that way about these
(21:43):
sweet fans and now I love honey. Their husbands are
coming and I love that because I loved men since
I was in kindergarten.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
I would be ashamed if I didn't ask this question.
But I'm also ashamed a little bit for asking this question.
The dress you wore and I'm every woman, where did
that end up?
Speaker 3 (22:02):
I got it, my darling. I think I think somebody
with some sense got it? Drinking?
Speaker 1 (22:07):
Are you trying to be weird? Gary? And offered to
buy it? Is that what I'm hearing?
Speaker 2 (22:11):
I love that dress, and I don't say that to
anything that.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Grand Okay, Gary, do you what do you to make
you think of?
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Though?
Speaker 3 (22:18):
After I wore it, I thought, oh my gosh, that's
the afghan on Roseanne's count loved it I.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Thought it was, like, gosh, it is I mean, it
was beautiful on you. You look beautiful, beautiful and anything. But
I never made a connection with the black and the
and the Oh my god, not.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
A neater came out and I thought, wait a minute,
that's an amp dan that everybody's grandmother had, and Roseanne
had it hanging over her couch in that liver room.
And then I thought my brains were too fat.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
No, no, I was going to actually part of you wholeheartedly.
I thought they were both going in the same direction,
and they looked beautiful.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Oh thank you.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
It's worried made of unspeakable things. On Netflix. You can
also check out I'm every Woman on Netflix, uh, the
LeeAnne Morgan so yell Me on YouTube, and of course
the second season of Leanne on Netflix, which will come out.
We love to see you if you come out to
LA We'd love to spend some time with you.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Oh y'all. I'd love to come in.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Oh man, we'll set it up. We'll definitely everybody I know.

thanks given. Well, see y'all when I get out, you too.

Speaker 4 (23:55):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
You and I both lived in Seattle at arguably one
of the more magical times for that city. Amazon, Microsoft, Starbucks.
They were all the on the come. If you want
to call it, you use a gambling reference. They were
doing very well, and ever since Howard Schultz turned it
(24:23):
from that one individual shop there at Pike Place Market
into a huge global powerhouse. There are seventeen thousand stores
not worldwide. There are seventeen thousand Starbucks in the United States,
and very few companies have managed that leap from regional
(24:44):
favor to a national brand. You had the Seattle's best
for a while. You had was it Pete's Coffee, and
a couple others that kind of made their way, but
nobody could compete with Starbucks.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Look to gen Z to find that to no longer
be the case. The market is being driven by evolving tastes,
especially among members of gen Z that may not like Starbucks.
No brand captures the shift better. And you know this.
You have a young daughter Dutch Brothers. You've waited probably
(25:17):
in a Dutch Brother's drive through line before. What's special
about Dutch Brothers. Is it the dessert and a cup
type of a place that it's the attitude?
Speaker 2 (25:26):
I mean, what I notice about it is the a
little over the top, but the just the down to earth, like,
hey bro, it's up at.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
The corporate Starbucks. Yes, got it.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
It's less forced than you would find perhaps in the Starbucks. Okay,
but yes, the dessert and a cup. They had hundreds
of different options and all of them are seven thousand calories.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
Right right, they say more than food. Coffee preferences diverge
sharply by generation. Logan Reich is an analyst did RBC
Capital Markets. He says everyone likes a chicken sandwich, but
while older consumers still drink hot black coffee, younger ones
(26:08):
gravitate toward colorful energy drinks and iced concoctions that look
perfectly drizzled. With caramel on TikTok. Dutch Brothers is positioned
at the crossroads of those shifting habits.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
And do we say Dutch Brothers or Dutch Bros.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Oh, I am not the authority at all, Rosy, excuse me,
I've been screwing it up. Then I've never been. I've
never been. I'm just intimate. I'm not intimidated by the line.
I'm completely turned off by waiting for anything, let alone
an overpriced cup of coffee.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
It's also in a situation where they rarely plan correctly.
You know, Trader Joe's has a parking theory philosophy in
and out have to have specific ingress and egress routes
when you're because they just they just developed lines. Dutch Bros.
Is very similar to that. They'll put them in the
(27:05):
wrong place and they'll back up traffic regularly.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Do you grow out of the dessert and a cup
drizzled with caramel and whipped cream, or do you just
keep getting hooked on it until you get obese and
then you get ozepic and then you're over it and
the next generation gets hooked on them.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
It's a good question because what my parents never really
My dad was a big sugar in his coffee guy,
but that was it. No milk or anything. They just sugar.
My mom got into those really bad, little tiny cups
of fake creamer that were flavored like the French vanilla
or the beeselnut or something like that. But I don't
(27:39):
remember there ever. I don't remember smelling anything other than
just coffee. Yeah, so it was never I was never
really into coffee until well Africa.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
It's definitely not a thing we grew up with. It's
definitely a thing that happened. I think when I lived
in in Seattle is when they started with all the
frappuccino stuff, and that was two thousand and four. I mean,
it wasn't the very beginning, but it was where it
started picking up some steam. And you have it at
Pete's and Tully's and Starbucks, these like desserting a cup
(28:10):
type things. I love Tully and I.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
Do remember some of those first living in Seattle, the
first sugary coffee, milk shaky kind of concoctions, and thought, well,
I can get coffee and have desserted at the same time.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
I'm in I.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Know, But the thing is, as much as I love it,
it's a. It is definitely a crash that exists. It's
and it's not a good one. I can't take it.
It makes me sad, it does.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
It makes me because I realized that feeling. It's the
physical feeling of or as an example, if I'm doing
rehearsals for this show, right and it's a long day,
and they'll put out snacks, right, everyone's like a little
bag of nuts or some Snickers bar, some someone's leftover
Halloween Canton, And I go, you know what, little baby
snickers isn't gonna hurt me? And then I'll have six
(29:03):
and then like an hour and a half later, gets
that feel sad? Yeah, I feel, man, you so sad?
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Definitely, non do cocaine.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
And then I go, why did I feel so sad?
And then I remember I had six Nicks.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
You know what helps is smoking? A little weed came down?
Speaker 2 (29:20):
So it does it lessen my It does it?
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Just it smooths it out.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
It's smooth, smoother landing. Yeah, I'm not jamming the wheels
into the into the runway, right.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
You can't go from six Snicker bars to nothing?
Speaker 2 (29:31):

Speaker 2 (00:09):
It's time for Strange Science. It's like weird science, but strange. Well,
we've known that there are potential disasters lurking in the
skies above us. Right now, there is a Chinese space
crew stranded at their space station because of some sort
(00:34):
of pieces of space debris that blew into their capsule.
This is a three member team. They were scheduled to
return to Earth today, but their mission has been extended
as engineers conduct impact analysis and risk assessments on the
damaged spacecraft.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Is that right? Is that what they're doing? Or are
they their spine?
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (00:54):
I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
How do you know?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
I don't for certain, but maybe I'm being paid by
the Chinese?
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Are they just hovering over America?
Speaker 2 (01:02):
The crew's return capsules believed to have been hit by
tiny fragments of space junk they say that have been
increasingly hazardous in low Earth orbit. The Chinese Space Organization
did not specify the extent of the damage, or even
what repairs would be possible or were required if it
(01:23):
cannot be repaired. The protocol states that the shen Zoo
twenty crew would use the shen Zoo twenty one team
capsule to return to Earth. They regularly send crews of
three Chinese astronauts two and from this space station for
six months missions. The Shenzu twenty astronauts did arrive in April.
(01:45):
They were nearing the end of the mission when this
thing occurred. Their replacements already docked with the station, so
there are others up there. But the return craft that
they were supposed to take down may have giant gaping
holes in it.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Parts three eye atlas are missing.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
What we better get this straight. This is important.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
I wanted you to play the thing which part parts
of three eye atlas are missing? No again, no, no,
not much No, watch that smell damn No.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I don't know which one you want me.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
To play, like the mystery, like where is the.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
No this one?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Yeah, we have an alien spacecraft that was right next
to the sun, blocked our view of it using the sun,
and now is much smaller, And you don't think that's suspicious.
Where did the rest of it go?
Speaker 2 (02:56):
We'll find out in strange science. We're in the middle
of straight science. Before we get to three I Atlas,
did you know why do you know why we sleep
through the night now?
Speaker 1 (03:09):
As oppose you say now, as opposed to when?
Speaker 2 (03:12):
For most of human history, Oh, continuous eight hour sleep
was not a thing.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
We sleep through the night now because of stuff in
our foods.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Possibly each of the sleeps the first sleep, in second sleep.
That's the way we used to do. It would last
several hours, separated by a gap of wakefulness for an
hour or more in the middle of the night. Historical
records we know from all over the world, Africa, Asia,
Europe describe how after nightfall, families would go to bed
and then wake up about midnight for a bit and
(03:47):
then go back to sleep until dawn.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
My brother in law used to do this, really, he
used to, Well, he would, he would fall asleep, and
they'd get up in the middle of the night and
eat something and then go back to bed. Breaking the
night into two parts probably changed how time felt. And
they said the quiet interval gave nights a clear middle,
which could make long winter evenings feel less continuous and
(04:10):
a little bit easier to manage. That midnight interval was
not dead time. Some people would get up they'd tend
to chores like stirring the fire, checking on the animals
or something like that.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
You used to do this on cruise ships. You'd have
your dinner at you know, the five or seven sitting,
you would go to bed, and then you'd wake up
for the midnight buffet and you hit that thing one
more time sounds off, and then you go back to
sleep and get up.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
And man, I just added four and a half pounds.
You just say, artificial lighting is one of the reasons
why we now sleep through the night because you could
stay up later.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Okay, yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
You didn't have to go to bed when the sun
went has.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Everybody want wanted to go to bed at like six pm?
Like I have this week?
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Are you going to tell me the the time changes
really now to.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Effect the darkness gets me ready for bed?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Yes, Like it's like it's.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Biological, you know, it's just like, okay, it's time for
sleep time. And so now the darkness hits, you know,
on my way home from work here about one thirty pm.
Not really, but you know what I mean. And I'm
suddenly I'm like, oh, I'm gonna get into bed, you know,
and my husband's like it's six thirty, Like, what are
you talking about?
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Factory schedules encouraged a single block of rest. By the
early twentieth century, the idea of eight interrupted hours had
replaced the centuries old rhythm of too sleep, and they
said that in multi week sleep studies that simulate long
winter nights in darkness and remove clocks or evening light,
people often end up adopting the two sleeps with a
(05:45):
calm waking interval in the middle of it.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
AI has worked its way into the animal kingdom and
it could mean disaster for us and our animal friends.
There has been a plethora of AI narrated animal slop
that has proliferated social media, and the problem with the
AI animal Kingdom stuff is that it's phony. They reflect
(06:14):
these videos characteristics, behaviors, habits, or relationships between species.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
That are not real.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
In one uber viral clip hundreds of millions of views
on this thing, a gang of rabbits can be seen
jumping on a trampoline in tandem. The static background and
the fact that some of the balancing bunnies disappear mid
hop or dead giveaways that the clip is slop.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
These are ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
And they show us animals with human behaviors that are
far from reality. They also lead you to believe, probably
that you can take a bunch of bunnies and make
them hop on a trampoline, or that if you do that,
the bunnies will be chill about it and they won't
eat your face.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Bunnies don't often eat your face.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
To me, messing with the animal kingdom with AI is
just a form of Darwinism. If you believe in the
video on your phone that shows you can go hug
the bear in your backyard and you try it, that's
on you for being a dumb ass.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
If you can, and you should with the bear, it
should be.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
The end of the line right there, then of the line, sir, so,
just to wrap up this whole three I at list thing.
We don't know where the rest of it is, and
it could be here. They could be here, they could
be walking amongst us. Here's the wet we're dumb because
we're looking at animal AI videos.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
The part that is that has freaked me out the
most in the last forty eight hours is that it
has changed course slightly, undergoing what they say is non
gravitational acceleration or acceleration that cannot be accounted for by
gravity alone.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
And we're those Chinese astronomers. Ut, huh, what are they
doing over there?
Speaker 2 (07:57):
They're going to catch a whole plate full of three
eye at lists right in the shops.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
What if they're in cahoots with them?
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Get it straight?
Speaker 1 (08:05):
But what if the Aliens came by and they're like, you
know what, these Chinese people, they seem to have it
all together, and then they're now they're collaborating.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
It's only matter of time anyway, isn't it till what
till they take over the Chinese? No, the Aliens, with
the help Chinese.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Has already taken over.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Look at TikTok. It's great facts.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Apparently, San Francisco has long been a haven for dog lovers,
and now people are saying that there are some taking
advantage of the situation, exploiting the city's tolerance. That paws
are up on the counters of coffee shops and no
one flinches. Croissants are being stolen out of the hands
(08:54):
of hungry diners by hungry or black labs. The aisles
of Target and Trader Joe's are full of service animals,
service animals. How San Francisco is this Like you can
shoot up on battery and nobody looks, but you steal
(09:15):
a Cryssan. Your dog steals her croissant at the overpriced
coffee shop, and oh, throw the book at them.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Chandra moved to San Francisco in part of in part
because of how much San Francisco was known for loving dogs.
She's a biotech worker. She's the owner of Clementine, a
docs and with sixty four thousand Instagram followers, My dog
does not have that many Instagram followers.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
I feel like, she says, she takes Clementine everywhere she's permitted, restaurant's, clothing, boutiques.
I kind of feel like, and I don't know, because
I'm not a dog owner, but you kind of got
to follow the rule of just because you can, doesn't
mean you should take your dog to every single place.
I mean, I remember we were at a restaurant. I
don't remember where we were, but there was a dog.
(10:01):
It was a like a nice restaurant, and there was
a dog just perched on the seat at the table
next to us, just sitting there.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Were you was the dog weod doing anything making noise,
causing problems.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
No, but you pay a certain amount of money to
go out and have a nice meal. You don't want
to be eating, you know, with somebody else's dog right there.
You're constantly wearing, is a dog going to jump up
and eat my prime rib?
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Like?
Speaker 1 (10:28):
What's going to happen here? Not that I would do that.
I don't order prime rey, Wow, I don't. But it
was kind of like that kind of a place like house,
the prime rib type of a place, and there's a
dog sitting there, and it's like, it's just it's uncivilized. Frankly,
I eat dog.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
I eat dogs. Sorry, I'm in the need that isolated.
I eat dog. I eat almost every day with a
dog in the room.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Yes, but if you were paying to go to a
meal with your wife, would you want to eat with
someone else's dog at your lap level?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I do suppose. I do suppose that there are two
things that would play into that. Number One, it's not
your own dog lap level. I don't need. I don't
need the dog up on the chair right.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
It's one thing if the dog's at someone's feet and
it's a helper dog or whatever. Yeah, but sitting at
the table on.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
A chair, Come on, listen, and I'll say this. I
love the idea of taking my dog places like I'll
take my dog to home depot or Low's or something
like that, because there's plenty of space. He's even if
I do see another dog in the store or something
like that, there's plenty of opportunity for me to go
the other way. And there's no you know, there's no
tangling between the dogs. But if you have a dog
(11:40):
that's not very well behaved, or you're not certain of
how that dog would behave, you got to be really
careful about where you take that thing because it's not
just you and whatever comfort or you want to show
off your dog. I get all that, but you better
be careful about what you do with that dog.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Let me ask you this. I saw in the a
is out in Palm Springs and we're at a hotel
having dinner, and there is a couple. I want to
say they were maybe thirty years old, a good looking
couple in at leisure where fit looked like they had
just been out for a run maybe and that's why.
But they had a dog in a stroller. Now, the
(12:17):
stroller probably costs more than well, certainly the strollers that
we were put in as a youth that were all
hand me downs and probably had no safety standards. But
this stroller looked like it went for the cost of
a Maserati like it was. You can tell a nice
stroller when you see one. And inside was a dog,
and I'm thinking, maybe this dog has two legs, Maybe
(12:37):
this dog's got three legs, Maybe this dog's an issue.
They take the dog out of the stroller, the dog
runs around, It's a small dog, it's got all the legs,
and then it hops back in its.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Stroller and off they go.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
I understand a stroller for a dog if it's somebody
who needs a new hip that has a dog, or
the dog needs a new hip. But where do you
come down on people putting their dogs in high end
strollers just because.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Well, I will say this, it sounds like those people
are very active and sometimes small dogs cannot keep up.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
With right, So maybe they had just gone for a run.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Yeah, hey, maybe you get a different dog if that's
your lifestyle and that's what you're going to do, and
you're going to run five miles a day and you
want your dog to run with. You get a dog
that will do that, don't buy one that has to
be in a stroller with you that I can't with stroller.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
So it didn't seem like they had been for a run.
I mean, it was the heat of the day in
Palm Springs. I think that they just use that stroller
all the time with that dog. It's not the first
time I've seen people with the stroller on the dog.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Dogs are generally lazy. We think of them as they
lay around all the time, but dogs need physical action.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
They love it. We lay around all the time if
we could, but our bodies actually like to move.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Well, speak for yourself mine.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Is that why it's fighting back?
Speaker 2 (14:00):
The body's fighting.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
You are all buttoned up today, you're keeping the whole.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
I'm cold. It is so flipping cold in here all
the time. I wore a shirt yesterday, but I didn't
wear a jacket or a sweatshirt over the top of it.
I was cold all day, all day.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Yeah, you should leave a jacket in the office. I've
got a couple in there you could wear all thank you.
I have that Pink Ladies one from Halloween a couple
of years ago.
Speaker 4 (14:29):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Hello, how are you?
Speaker 1 (14:39):
This is such a truney how you my gosh, it's
so exciting. Okay, Oh we are such big fans. Just
letting you know, huge fans, huge, huge, big fan you
just saying that. All right, So this this will be
about what ten minutes you know.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
You're on a tights cat. I'll get you out. We
will jump right in. Leanne, let's start with that. Let's
start with the basics. What are your plans for Thanksgiving?
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Honey? Everybody in the world coming to my house, all
my extended family and my kids, friends that don't have
anywhere to go. And I'm already studying about I think
I'm gonna do a brisket. I'm gonna do a ham.
I'll Chuck Morton gets a ham from his work every year,
and he's determined for U sate that ham. Well, then
(15:32):
I'm gonna I've gotta have turkey. We all have to
have turkey. And then yeah, I got a brisket on
my mind, y'all. I'll have everybody at my house and
my grand babies and all land.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
It's nice to have a Thanksgiving where you have the
island of misfit toys because it makes for good stories
around the table.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
I know, and not everybody can eat poork, and so
that mixes it up. For us Southern people, we like plant,
you know, if every body likes to come and from
different cultures and different ethnicities, We've all of a sudden
got all these precious young people that come and sign
with us, and we love it and anti overdo. I
(16:13):
like to overdo.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
I do like that. You also have the four Southern
food groups represented with the ham, the brisket, the turkey,
and then something creamy problem.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Me mac and shee Yeah, mac and cheese, A lot
of creamy, a lot of creamy, a lot of yellow y'all.
There will be a lot of cas roles, and there
will be mac and cheese, yes, and all kinds of
potatoes in different ways. Yes, advance of it.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
We first fell in love, well, I first fell in
love with Leanne Morgan in twenty twenty three with her
special on Netflix, I'm every Woman. And then this week
a new special, What a Treat Unspeakable Things, premiered on
Netflix November fourth, and I learned that I love you
even more because I've learned Leanne, that you and I,
without spoiling it, have the same fallback plan when it
(16:59):
comes to a career in the form of a strip club.
And that's all I'll say.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
Well, and the one I went to, Yeah, no, that's
the first.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
That's the first strip club I've ever been to. When
I first went to Atlanta about thirteen years ago, one
of my girlfriends from there, I've got to take you
to this place, just like.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
You said in your special.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
And I walked in.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
And oh, holy hell, oh my lord, it is dump
I've never seen before. And I know there was a
serial killer that not there another one. I looked into
his dad eyes and I don't think I'll ever go back.
But I hear of Painble saying all the time, Oh
Goldie Hawn goes every time she goes into townl I'm thinking,
(17:44):
what go? And you want to go into play ion Leah.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
And you mentioned that you spent some time here in
southern California. Obviously you did the Netflix sitcom Leanne, which
we also loved. It was fantastic, can't wait for the
second season come out. But what when you spent time
here in southern California. I mean it was an extended,
extended period of time. You talked very lovingly about some
of the places that you visited. Are you coming back?
(18:11):
Are you going to get a house out here? Are
you going to spend half your time here? Is it
enough to draw you back?
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Oh you don't. I'm getting it. I'm gonna get to
do a second season. So I'll rent a house January
through eightful and I am thrilled over it. And I mean,
I've always loved California and been mesmerized by it, but
living there, I mean, I don't mean to sound safety,
but I just the people are precious. Everybody was wonderful
(18:38):
to me. It is I think it's one of the
prettiest state in the Union. It is stunning. I had
a bowl. I cannot wait to go back. Now. Chuck
Morgan will come in and out and you know, try
to grab my brands while I'm trying to learn line.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Oh my goodness, means he loves you.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
I say that to my wife all the time. Listen,
you'd rather me do.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
That than not, right, I guess so. I guess so,
my darling. But I heard that you're an actor too.
Oh that's an anchor.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
That's quite a stretch. I do community theater. A couple
of times. I've done that, but I don't know about it.
I don't know if i'd put that on my resume.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Okay, well, let me tell you that when I had
my I had four deals for sitcoms before this one
made it because I've been doing standing up for twenty
five years and one of them was with Matt Williams
that created Rosanne and Home Improvement. And do you remember
that wonderful actress that played the wife on Home Improvement? Sure? Yes,
they got her from community theater.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Oh my goodness, Garrett, you'll know it.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
I didn't know that. But if you need I'm available.
I mean every day after one pm. That's don't don't
text me. I'll get audition walck cycle pretty quickly.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Okay, Well, do you all have to get up at
three o'clock in the morning and be on the radio
and then you get.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Off of one Well, we get up at about eight
forty five.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
That's law. It's that it's not a real job, Leanne,
it's not a real job. Okay, Okay, Leah and Morgan,
you've got to check this out. I mean, I bet
you hear this all the time. But you have this
quality about you as a person where I just feel
like I know you right away. And it's so refreshing
to see someone on TV the who's such an open book,
(20:26):
who's so warm, and you feel like you're spending time
with a girlfriend or a relative that you actually enjoy,
And it's just refreshing to actually feel like you know someone,
to know that that's who exactly that person is.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Well, thank you, my darling. And I get that a lot.
And I tell you, y'all, I think I know that.
I got that from my mom, Alosle and she's eighty
two and she goes to the Senior Says's twice a
week and everybody wants to be her partner because she
is an unbelievable card player and she's very popular. But
(21:01):
she's always been sweet and kind and funny, and I
think and likable. And I've got a lot of flaws, y'all.
I can't do math. And if y'all saw my dance,
y'all would say, oh, my lord, is she okay? I'm
very unorganized. Chuck Morgan stays mad at me over it,
but I'm not a buck. And I got that from
(21:22):
low Seale I and I do I feel like I
can make friends easy? And I really and truly love people,
and I honestly, and I know this sounds sappy, y'all,
but when I'm on tour, I look out in that
audience and I think I'd be best friends day woman.
I would go to jazz or science. Honey, we would
go and eat lunch for four hours. We would have
a ball. I do I feel that way about these
(21:43):
sweet fans and now I love honey. Their husbands are
coming and I love that because I loved men since
I was in kindergarten.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
I would be ashamed if I didn't ask this question.
But I'm also ashamed a little bit for asking this question.
The dress you wore and I'm every woman, where did
that end up?
Speaker 3 (22:02):
I got it, my darling. I think I think somebody
with some sense got it? Drinking?
Speaker 1 (22:07):
Are you trying to be weird? Gary? And offered to
buy it? Is that what I'm hearing?
Speaker 2 (22:11):
I love that dress, and I don't say that to
anything that.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Grand Okay, Gary, do you what do you to make
you think of?
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Though?
Speaker 3 (22:18):
After I wore it, I thought, oh my gosh, that's
the afghan on Roseanne's count loved it I.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Thought it was, like, gosh, it is I mean, it
was beautiful on you. You look beautiful, beautiful and anything. But
I never made a connection with the black and the
and the Oh my god, not.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
A neater came out and I thought, wait a minute,
that's an amp dan that everybody's grandmother had, and Roseanne
had it hanging over her couch in that liver room.
And then I thought my brains were too fat.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
No, no, I was going to actually part of you wholeheartedly.
I thought they were both going in the same direction,
and they looked beautiful.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Oh thank you.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
It's worried made of unspeakable things. On Netflix. You can
also check out I'm every Woman on Netflix, uh, the
LeeAnne Morgan so yell Me on YouTube, and of course
the second season of Leanne on Netflix, which will come out.
We love to see you if you come out to
LA We'd love to spend some time with you.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Oh y'all. I'd love to come in.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Oh man, we'll set it up. We'll definitely everybody I know.

thanks given. Well, see y'all when I get out, you too.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
We'll see you soon, Okay, all right, bye bye bye.
Speaker 4 (23:55):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
You and I both lived in Seattle at arguably one
of the more magical times for that city. Amazon, Microsoft, Starbucks.
They were all the on the come. If you want
to call it, you use a gambling reference. They were
doing very well, and ever since Howard Schultz turned it
(24:23):
from that one individual shop there at Pike Place Market
into a huge global powerhouse. There are seventeen thousand stores
not worldwide. There are seventeen thousand Starbucks in the United States,
and very few companies have managed that leap from regional
(24:44):
favor to a national brand. You had the Seattle's best
for a while. You had was it Pete's Coffee, and
a couple others that kind of made their way, but
nobody could compete with Starbucks.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Look to gen Z to find that to no longer
be the case. The market is being driven by evolving tastes,
especially among members of gen Z that may not like Starbucks.
No brand captures the shift better. And you know this.
You have a young daughter Dutch Brothers. You've waited probably
(25:17):
in a Dutch Brother's drive through line before. What's special
about Dutch Brothers. Is it the dessert and a cup
type of a place that it's the attitude?
Speaker 2 (25:26):
I mean, what I notice about it is the a
little over the top, but the just the down to earth, like,
hey bro, it's up at.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
The corporate Starbucks. Yes, got it.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
It's less forced than you would find perhaps in the Starbucks. Okay,
but yes, the dessert and a cup. They had hundreds
of different options and all of them are seven thousand calories.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
Right right, they say more than food. Coffee preferences diverge
sharply by generation. Logan Reich is an analyst did RBC
Capital Markets. He says everyone likes a chicken sandwich, but
while older consumers still drink hot black coffee, younger ones
(26:08):
gravitate toward colorful energy drinks and iced concoctions that look
perfectly drizzled. With caramel on TikTok. Dutch Brothers is positioned
at the crossroads of those shifting habits.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
And do we say Dutch Brothers or Dutch Bros.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Oh, I am not the authority at all, Rosy, excuse me,
I've been screwing it up. Then I've never been. I've
never been. I'm just intimate. I'm not intimidated by the line.
I'm completely turned off by waiting for anything, let alone
an overpriced cup of coffee.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
It's also in a situation where they rarely plan correctly.
You know, Trader Joe's has a parking theory philosophy in
and out have to have specific ingress and egress routes
when you're because they just they just developed lines. Dutch Bros.
Is very similar to that. They'll put them in the
(27:05):
wrong place and they'll back up traffic regularly.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Do you grow out of the dessert and a cup
drizzled with caramel and whipped cream, or do you just
keep getting hooked on it until you get obese and
then you get ozepic and then you're over it and
the next generation gets hooked on them.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
It's a good question because what my parents never really
My dad was a big sugar in his coffee guy,
but that was it. No milk or anything. They just sugar.
My mom got into those really bad, little tiny cups
of fake creamer that were flavored like the French vanilla
or the beeselnut or something like that. But I don't
(27:39):
remember there ever. I don't remember smelling anything other than
just coffee. Yeah, so it was never I was never
really into coffee until well Africa.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
It's definitely not a thing we grew up with. It's
definitely a thing that happened. I think when I lived
in in Seattle is when they started with all the
frappuccino stuff, and that was two thousand and four. I mean,
it wasn't the very beginning, but it was where it
started picking up some steam. And you have it at
Pete's and Tully's and Starbucks, these like desserting a cup
(28:10):
type things. I love Tully and I.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
Do remember some of those first living in Seattle, the
first sugary coffee, milk shaky kind of concoctions, and thought, well,
I can get coffee and have desserted at the same time.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
I'm in I.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Know, But the thing is, as much as I love it,
it's a. It is definitely a crash that exists. It's
and it's not a good one. I can't take it.
It makes me sad, it does.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
It makes me because I realized that feeling. It's the
physical feeling of or as an example, if I'm doing
rehearsals for this show, right and it's a long day,
and they'll put out snacks, right, everyone's like a little
bag of nuts or some Snickers bar, some someone's leftover
Halloween Canton, And I go, you know what, little baby
snickers isn't gonna hurt me? And then I'll have six
(29:03):
and then like an hour and a half later, gets
that feel sad? Yeah, I feel, man, you so sad?
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Definitely, non do cocaine.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
And then I go, why did I feel so sad?
And then I remember I had six Nicks.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
You know what helps is smoking? A little weed came down?
Speaker 2 (29:20):
So it does it lessen my It does it?
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Just it smooths it out.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
It's smooth, smoother landing. Yeah, I'm not jamming the wheels
into the into the runway, right.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
You can't go from six Snicker bars to nothing?
Speaker 2 (29:31):
