Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
A M. Six forty, The Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
It's up the show.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Eddie's got to get to work by nine thirty. He
is part of our gas family and we met I
met him yesterday at an ARII and he's a big fan.
He loves the show and he's got to be to
work at nine thirty. And he wanted me to specifically
tell you. He said, Hi, what did you get at
ari I? And we're all friends now.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Well, Hi, Id, and I hope you're not late to work?
What did you get at ari I?
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Do mean what you think I'm not outdoorsy? You think
I can't go to ari ij and get like a
something they sell a thing that you wear?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Are you getting doors?
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Are you eating climbing caribbineers or get some caribbeans?
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Thirty two below TVC pipe. I might be picking up
a PVC pipe. I doubt they have PVC pipe.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
I might be getting a socket wrench or some that
I fixed you with.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Okay, let's start the show. Start the show. Sorry, that
was insert music. Yeah, and certainly it's Keana. You saying
I wanted Acapella.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
You know.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Garian Sanman JF. I am six forty live everywhere on
the I heard VIDIA.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I don't know why people don't listen for four hours.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Tuesday, August twenty sixth, Lisa Cook is the name you
had not heard of until yesterday. Probably the President's going
to try to fire her. Her lawyer says that she
will be suing. This is one of the governors on
the Fed Reserve Board who gets to make decisions about
interest rates, et cetera. And he the President says that
(01:52):
she's probably guilty of mortgage fraud, which would be significant
considering her position as somebody who gets to set interest rates.
So we'll talk about that at the bottom of the hour.
A terror in the sky's coming up. The flight attendants
have a very specific and secretive language.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
Yeah, how do they say f you to your face
without you knowing it?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
We'll tell you.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Some new information about our race for governor. Why is
this cracker barrel thing floating.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
To the going away?
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Well, it's so indicative of the change of brands that
have had to change, of unnecessary change, of people not
respecting nostalgia, of companies not understanding their customer base, not
knowing what their base wants.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
Didn't didn't every company learn from New Coke?
Speaker 1 (02:43):
That's there's value in tradition. I believe I had like
a class based on New Coke. I'm sure you did,
like the mistake of not listening to your customers. You know,
it's almost like you know the Woody Show this morning,
and you know they were talking about the salespeople that
(03:06):
sell the Woody Show and they don't know who's on
the Woody Show.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Well, you got to know what you're selling and who
you're selling to.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
I heard that as well, and it was one of
those moments of just absolute clarity.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Clarity.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
I love clarity. Who wants a monsoon? Haboob? Is that
how I say it? Haboob? Haboob? What a fun word
to say. Cassandra was caught up in it yesterday in Phoenix.
Couldn't see anything in front of you. It would just
got really dark.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
It felt like I was found an apocalypse or the
walking apocalypse is such a great word. Lori Joe is
also in the Haboob.
Speaker 5 (03:40):
It goes up thousands of feet and it rolls and
it's fast, it comes.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
I am glad we weren't out in vehicles in that
because that could be very scary.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
A lot of different videos that show this huge wall
of dust swallowing parts of a metro Phoenix yesterday, plunging
the city into narrow ability. In some cases it was
it looked like it was nighttime. Automatic lights were coming
on and things like that. They had to do a
full ground stop at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport because of
(04:11):
this thing.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Would you like to know where the word haboob came from?
I would yes.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Haboob is Arabic for blown. Why we have adopted the
Arabic word for blown to describe a windstorm in Phoenix?
Speaker 2 (04:25):
I don't know. It seems like a mismax. Couldn't we
have like some sort of a Native American name that
would be more traditional? I will find.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
I will find the Native American name for dust storm.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
National Weather Service issued both dust storm and severe thunderstorm
warnings as this thing pushed into Americopa County yesterday. After
the dust came through, they said severe winds and heavy
rains in a few areas did cause some localized flooding
throughout Phoenix. And this is, you know, just a week
after they were topping out at about one hundred and
eighteen degrees in the middle of the day. Oh, by
(04:59):
the way, just like the National Weather Service tells you
to turn around and don't drown because of the potential
for flooding wherever you are, they have one for a boobs.
It's called pull aside. Stay alive. Oh, that's good to
stay out, you know, if you get into it, if
you're on the freeway, if you're on the ten freeway.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Alive, don't really rhyme listen the people. Yeah, I don't know,
not right. I've got a Native American word for dust
storm from Pima. This is the tribe. This is the
language spoken in Arizonas in particular. Jgis is the Pima
word for dust storm. Jgis. There are no boobs in it,
(05:39):
which makes it less fun maybe, and that's maybe why
we've jis. There's a there's a judges. Jugis like judges.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
That's what you've decided. Jugs is the PMA.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
It doesn't sound like a Native American word, doesn't judgis.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Mike Oldbinski is a storm chaser who saw this thing
coming way south down in the Tucson area.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
House of the Kacho Peak, this Red Rock area. Just
we knew that the storms would come out of the
Tucson Marana area, and it actually seemed like it turned
out to be a little more of the stuff that
started by cells. You're the co but we started there
and we you know, I'm used I've used to being
able to kind of stay ahead of them pretty easily,
(06:21):
and this one was moving so fast that between.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Pi Kacho Peak and Cassa Grant we could bear.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Fact.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
I was worried we were going to get stuck, and
if that had happened, I would have been devastated.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
About sixty thousand people were without power after this thing
rolled through yesterday.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
It turns out it was a scientist in Arizona who
first referred to these as haboobs. Maybe an Arabic scientist
or or someone you know was a pension for knockers.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Knockers.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
One scientist in Arizona was also the first to use
the term months soon.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Really, So there you go, there we go.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Well, the weather portion of the show is we blew
that one right away. The President is get it, Yeah,
I get it. Yeah, you don't have to circle back.
Oh you already got the fake laugh. We did it thought,
that's what we do on this radio station Chicago, maybe
getting federal troops. We'll talk about this a showdown between
(07:25):
President Trump and Governor Pritzker and the mayor of Chicago,
et cetera.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
This sounds like it's got staying power and it could
be a real problem.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
Yeah, you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
We got a big day to day.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
We've got guests coming in, best selling authors coming in
to talk about their book all about the marriage game Plan.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Oh here's a question also, we'll talk a little bit
about it in the eleven o'clock hour, But we'd love
to hear your opinions about how much support do you
give adult children? Right financially? I think it is probably
the easiest way to put this because everybody wants to
support their culture and blah blah, but yeah, financial support
to financial support, do you carve out?
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Do you do you give them allowance? Do you help
them in the dark times?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Someone who has no idea, someone who's never been a parent.
I feel like it's a case by case basis, right,
Each kid has different needs, is in a different spot,
you know, one twenty five year old may be different
from another twenty five year old. One thirty five year
old may be different from another thirty five year old.
Do you have a blanket rule? And does that one
size all rule type? Like that one size fits all
(08:37):
rule type, that kind of thing doesn't work for kids, right,
you got to kind of.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
I only have two.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
I can't imagine if there were four, or like my
sister has four kids. I can't imagine the mental math
that it goes that would go into determining that kind
of a thing. Yeah, you know, because you're right, because
each kid is going to be different, They're going to
have different needs.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Are They're going to have different attitudes about money?
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Yes, which I think is probably the most exactly what
would help determine what your reaction would be to them
if they came asking for it, or even if they
didn't come asking for it, but you had the ability
to give it to them, right, a down payment on
a house, or not the full down payment, but a
help on a down payment on a house, something like that.
That was the only time I think I've ever asked
my parents for a significant amount of money was when
(09:25):
we moved to La Well.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Because it makes financial sense to put more into the
down payment, you know, and parents like responsible decisions.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
And they knew that, and I paid them back.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
That's the other part about it is, yeah, I don't
I don't know if a lot of people think about that.
But we made a point of saying that we were
going to pay them. We made a point of saying it,
and then we made a point of actually doing it.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Well, so let us know, use the talkback feature on
the iHeart app. Hit that little button when you're listening
on the app, and tell us how do you support
your kids, your adult kids? If you do or you
just at eighteen gop you're on your own own, we'll
see you. We'll see you at the fiftieth anniversary.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Well yeah, and the support is different, like do you
help them out with rent? I mean when I was
twenty five, twenty four moving to LA which is old
enough to handle your own finances, I had to ask
my parents for money for my first and last month's rent.
I didn't have that. I didn't have any savings. I
have like twenty five dollars of savings.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
And that was twenty years ago.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
I mean this the environment today in terms of being
able to scrape together first and last month's rent.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
It's hard, hard, Yeah, And I had a full time
job and I'm moving here and I'm getting another full
time job and I still couldn't do it.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
But there's that's kind of support. But then there's also.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
You know, cell phone plans and things like that that
have gotten so expensive and how long do you do
that for?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
And you know, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
President Trump has said that he may send federal troops
into Chicago.
Speaker 6 (10:58):
Goos a killing field now, and they don't acknowledge it,
and they say, we don't need him, but we may wait,
we may or may not. We may just go in
and do it, which is probably what we should do.
The problem is it's not nice when you go in
and do it and somebody else is standing there saying,
as we give great results, say well, we don't want
(11:19):
the military.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
They need They.
Speaker 6 (11:21):
Need help badly. Chicago desperately needs help.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
So yesterday there was a big headline that Trump was
going to go after Chris Christy retroactively for Bridgegate, you
remember that, And then there.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Was a pivot to Governor JB.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Pritzker, current governor of Illinois, and he instantly makes a
comment about JB.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Pritzker's weight.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
I've got to believe the two are connected, going after
Chris Christy and then someone getting in Trump's air and
being like, hey, there's a newer guy you can take
aim at. Because Trump does best when he has an
enemy to attack. It's just the way it works to
have a boogeyman. You got to have a guy, and
Pritzker's perfect. He's a potential Democratic presidential hopeful. Trump's aiming
(12:07):
at all these guys, Gavin Newsom, JB. Pritzker, Everyone's going
to have a chance to get a little name or
an insult or something personal thrown at them, and right
now it's JB.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Pritzker's turn.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
The thing with Pritzker is he's not backing down, at
least not yet.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
He told Trump yesterday, do not come to Chicago. You're
neither wanted here nor needed here.
Speaker 7 (12:28):
First thing we're going to do is take him to
court because it's illegal. It's unconstitutional. Frankly, it's on American
to send troops into an American city the way that
he wants to fight crime. There is literally a law
on the books that says he's not allowed to do that.
Our National Guard are extraordinarily well trained. They are trained
to go to war, and they have done so admirably
(12:51):
on behalf of the United States and the people of
Illinois abroad. But they're not trained to go into American
cities and police them.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
When the Guard came to La Trump had the excuse
at the time that he was guarding federal buildings, and
that's why the National Guard and another federal agents actually
came into La because of the demonstrations that erupted out
of the immigration enforcement operations that were going on. A
decision to defy Pritzker, though, to federalized reservists in Chicago
(13:22):
would represent a step towards what everybody has been criticizing
Trump for, which is these dictatorial style moves. Trump yesterday said,
I'm not a dictator. I don't like dictators. Nobody likes dictators.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
We talked about it when it applied to California.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
The President has the authority to deploy the National Guard
over the objections of a state governor, but only in
the rarest of situations. It goes back to Title ten
of the US Code. The special situations are invasion to
suppress rebellion or to execute the laws of the United states.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Some of those have wiggle room, some of them are vague.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
There was a case made for Title ten because of
an invasion of illegal immigrants to Los Angeles that was
made at the time we were talking about it, and then
that goes, of course, into the courts, and then they decide,
you know, the ambiguous terms and what they all mean legally.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Trump has said that this is another one of those
eighty twenty issues where he's pointing out the Democrats are
on the wrong side, because for JB. Pritzker to come
in and say we don't need federal troops and we
don't want federal troops in DC is to ignore that
they're in major cities in the United States.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
There are crime problems.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Now I'm not going to get into the specifics of
crime is up, crime is down, homicides are up, homicides
are down. Those are all statistics that can be manipulated
depending on what you are looking to show.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
But there is a crime problem.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
And if Trump can control the message by saying, if
we don't go in there, your crime will continue and
potentially get work, then he gets the Democrats on their
back feet, because then he's trying to make it seem like, well,
Democrats love that there's crime and they don't want to
do anything about it.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
And this all plays into the campaign for the mid terms,
which are going to be here before you know it.
And then twenty twenty eight, which is, by the way,
why the F open, wide open? Why you don't have
to write that down?
Speaker 2 (15:23):
I am going to write that wide the F. It
was unnecessary, wasn't it. Well, I mean it's there's just
this fun it's a fun way to put it. Yeah, great,
you could have said it wide. I could have said
wide open, wide F and open.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Yeah, I put the the in there, the F, F
and WI more powerful you start.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
I think it's just a creative that's how language evolves. Yes,
you know, you come up with new things, and that's
just a way to put it.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Thanks for muffin today. By the way, you're welcome. Thank you,
you're so welcome.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
We talked about yesterday the Starbucks menu expanding, and I
was just worried that they would be out of muffins.
They were not, so I went into the Starbucks. I like,
pre order it right on the app. I've never been
to the Starbucks in the morning. It's on Hollywood Way
and Verdugo. You walk in and there's a Starbucks employee
who make sure all the to go orders work well.
(16:22):
She's kind of standing to the side and she shouts
every time somebody walks in.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Hello, good morning.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
And I'm like, Jesus rimey, holy hell, lady.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
It is in the eight o'clock hour. I haven't even had.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
I look over at her with a smile, like, not
a smile.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
It was you may you may have thought it was
a smile.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Like is she doing this because she's chipper or is
this And it's almost it was almost like an angry
good morning, good morning.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Hello.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
If I have to get up at four, you're gonna
feel the rat totally.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
And I was like, I'm never coming here again. It
was too much. The volume was at an eleven.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
A couple stories that we are following the parents of
Emmanuel Harrow, that seven month old baby believed to have
been killed by his parents. They are expected to make
their first court appearance today. Jake is thirty two, Rebecca's
forty one, both arrested on suspicion of murder on Friday,
A new poll from UC Berkeley, LA Time shows that
about four in ten voters say they have no idea
(17:34):
who they would vote for for governor. Coming up next year.
We'll talk about that when we get into that next album.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Oh m, hey, I just got an email.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
Boy.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Are preventing harassment and discrimination education continues this season.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
This is from the NFL.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Oh never mind, So now I've got to do harassment
training for this place and that place to harassment trains.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Can't you get credit for the one you did here?
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Curiously and like it's going to stop me from harassing people?
Speaker 2 (18:08):
You learn some new tips and tricks along the road.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
President Trump has decided that he wants to dismiss FED
Reserve Governor Lisa Cook.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
The interesting.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
He's bolstered by a Supreme Court decision six to three
decision that repeatedly allowed him to fire leadership at independent agencies,
but the FED, for the most part in the past,
has been protected in these cases. In May, they said
that the FED Reserve is uniquely structured and that it
(18:45):
should sort of be carved out. It's got a long
history of insulation from political interference from the White House,
and that that should not be changed. But The President
posted a letter last night on social media accusing Lisa
Cook of committing mortgage trot. But I don't know the
specifics of it, but it is something along the lines
of she has she owns multiple properties, and in more
(19:08):
than one she has listed it as her primary residence.
That's that's sort of the allegation against her, And in fact,
Bill Poulty, who is the head of the Federal Housing
Finance Agency, said as much in a criminal complaint against her.
Speaker 8 (19:25):
We have a Federal Reserve governor who's in charge of
setting interest rates, running this entire economy, right hand to
Jerome Powell, committing in my view, mortgage fraud. This can't happen.
I think it gives the President enormous cause to fire her.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Key point right there, and I'm going to repeat it
for you.
Speaker 8 (19:42):
Right hand to Jerome Powell committing, in my view.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Committing in my She's not been charged with mortgage fraud,
and as of today, her lawyers have said very clearly
that she will be fighting this in court. The core
the Supreme Court, as I mentioned, specifically distinguished the Fed
Reserve as being separate from independent agencies because of its
(20:10):
unique structure of sort of a pseudo government and pseudo
private outside agency.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Jack Goldsmith is a law professor at Harvard regularly writes
on administrative law issues, and he said the firing of
Lisa Cook for cause may be pretextual, but obviously.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
It's not obviously illegal.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
The big question, he says, is how the markets react
anything dealing with the FED. And that's what we care about, right,
how the markets react. It's literally flat on the market.
The Dow is literally up one point as in P.
Five hundred is less up less than a tenth of
a percent. NASDAK is also impositive, but barely, just barely
(20:56):
in the positive territory.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
So at this point it appears to have been it
appears to be pretty steady. But this is he can't
fire Jerome Powell, who is the chair of the Federal Reserve.
But if he can fire some of the other governors
that are along in that board, then he gets to
choose who replaces them. Obviously they'd have to be confirmed,
(21:19):
but that's that's his that's his that's his tactic here.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Well, if she's not moving, it's up to Jerome Powell
if he's going to keep signing her paychecks or if
she's going to end up like Milton in office space
and just staying put but not getting paid. The buck
stops with Jerome Powell. I mean, if she then you
could get Jerome then you could fire Jerome Palll for
paying somebody that was fired.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
By the president for cause who knows.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Listen, if she is criminally charged with mortgage fraud, yeah,
boot her, boot her quick that. I mean, that's talk
about an egregious violation of your position if you are
in charge of helping set interest rates, you know in
this country, and one of the major products that is
influenced by interest rates is going to be mortgage rates.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
So yeah, if she but there's convicted, she's got to
get out of there.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
If she's convicted, she's assuming that she's charged. Yeah, exactly,
charged with if there's enough to charge her. All right,
Coming up next, the language of flight attendants. It's a
secret language. And uh, there's some stuff in here. What
are they saying about you?
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Huh? What are they saying about you? Are you a
wide body? What are you a wide body? Maybe?
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Oh maybe just parts of just the tail tail of
the plane. Wow, that all of that got an MD
eighty up front, And okay, can we delete everything that
was said.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Airbus A three eighty on the back end.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
Yeah, Gary and Shannon will continue.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
You're speaking of Big Dumper. Uh, Cal Raley had fifty
home runs, his fiftieth home runs. That's good. That's the
home run derby winner catcher for the Mariners. Yeah, that's fun.
Amy Kings, were got a big dumper?
Speaker 5 (23:08):
WHOA?
Speaker 3 (23:08):
I just always wanted to say that. That's his nickname.
I didn't come up with.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
It, Yeah, askedon answered, We've been through this, sorry, Amy,
Thanks Gar.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
Yeah, you're welcome.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
Do you financially support your adult children and do you
have rules around it if they came to and asked
for money, do you have rules about it?
Speaker 2 (23:39):
And does it change over time?
Speaker 3 (23:40):
We're going to talk about supporting your kids, and I'm
talking not just twenty year olds. I'm talking into their thirties.
Would you do that if you had to let us know?
Of course, the talkback feature on the iHeart app is
a great way for you to send us messages. Just
hit that little button when you're listening on the app
and it sends a message that comes right into the
old computer.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Right here, we have a special edition of Tear in
the Skies.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Roger, get off my plane, Roger Rogers. What's our Victor?
Victor is eno I have had with these muffy pipe
snakes on this money? It's Gary and Shannon's Terror in
the Skies on KFI.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
We can start with the h the ones that are
less disastery, shall we.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Well, I mean Galley.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Everybody knows that Galley's the kitchen. Galley Queen is one
that is a flight attendant. Maybe that's territorial about the galleys.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
This is all about flight attendant vocabulary. Yes, jump seat.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Everybody knows that's a little folding little seat that they
get to sit in and take off and landing, et cetera.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Spinners and runners These are least favorite passengers.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Really.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
A spinner is a passenger who arrives at the last
minute without a seat assignment.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Who does that?
Speaker 1 (25:10):
You know, they're looking around, They're seeing where a seat is.
Runners are the passengers who are late are coming from
another flight.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
Miracle flight a term for a passenger who needs the
assistance of wheelchair to board, but then miraculously does not
require it to get off the plane. Hello, Southwest Airlines. Yeah,
I see that all the time. I used to, and
now I just don't care. I don't deal with it.
It's not my business.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
But I used to just if people that doesn't sound right.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
No, I know what you meant. I know it.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
But like, look at people who are in the wheelchair group, like,
I know what you're doing.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
You're perfectly fine. You just want to get on earlier.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
I just saw this on that last flight I took
Sacramento to Burbank. It's early in the morning, old, older gentleman.
He's a wheelchair and they get him right to the
front of the line.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
They roll him down that jetway.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
When I get on the plane, I see he's sitting
in the absolute front row seat one on the aisle.
That's and you know fine, I got no problem with that.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
I was in early seat. It's not like he took
my seat or anything.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
Then when we get to Burbank, you got a board
or you gotta disembark out of the outside. I mean
you're running down that Z shaped ramp right, sir, Would
you like to wait for the wheelchair? No, I got it,
And he booked down that thing like he was Carl Lewis.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Oh yeah, ultra marathon runner. Let's see here.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Pink eye is a flight that's slightly earlier than a
red eye. Crouch watch is what's called when a flight
attendant is in charge of checking for for seat belts.
This is all pretty like, Okay, here's the nitty gritty,
ready for it. This is the nitty gritty. Code three
hundred and or angel. Okay, that sounds innocuous. It sounds nice,
(26:57):
doesn't it. Code three hundred sounds like maybe you know, uh,
did you check the cross check then angel?
Speaker 2 (27:05):
That sounds nice. It means someone's dead on that cross taking.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Yeah, thank you. It means someone's dead on the plane.
If you hear code three hundred or angel, that means
there's a dead body on the plane. Sometimes they just
like put a blanket over it and move on. Code
yellow it's not urination. It means it is a minor
medical situation, maybe a passengers feeling nauseous or faint. It's
(27:31):
not as dire as you know the dead code three hundred, Guy,
Peter Pan, serious but not life threatening?
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Pan Pan? Oh, I'm sorry. Why did I say, Peter Pan?
I don't know, but it.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Makes sense because this is a step down maybe from
from may Day.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
They would say, Pan Pan.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Pan Pan is like a loss of an aircraft system
that is not an immediate problem, but it's gonna need
to be taken care of when they land.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Also, the name of the new panda that was born
at the Shanghai Zoo last year, is it really?
Speaker 5 (28:01):
No?
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Oh, panpan, that's nice? Uh, squawk seven hundred or hotel.
You're gonna want to listen for that. Squawk seven hundred
or hotel because those mean that your flight has been hijacked.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
That's that doesn't sound fun. It's not a mermaid.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
A mermaid In crew member code signifies a passenger who
sprawls out across several seats, often with the goal or
preventing other passengers from sitting down. I saw this again
on that flight because it was about half full and
people just let their stuff go.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Yeah, they'd sit in one seat and then throw.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
A jacket and a briefcase or something like that across
the two other seats so that they would have the
row entirely to themselves.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Code adam. If a child goes missing on a plane,
how when does that happen?
Speaker 2 (28:49):
How does that sounds lely Neeson movie.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Yeah, that's that's ridiculous, and he ends up in the
cargo hold or something something.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
Liam Neeson's got to get him because he has a
particular set of skills. VIP, by the way, very important person,
also potentially very irritating passenger. So if you are referred
to as a v I, we have a VIP in
two c h Maybe they're talking smack about you.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Can we adopt something on this program? Squawk S seven
hundred doesn't really apply. We don't have hijackers here, code yellow,
we hope, we don't have any medical We could do
pan pan like when the when the program is not
going down essentially, but it's a problem starting to show
just a we lost one engine. Maybe we got a
(29:35):
pan pan here.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
We've got a bird in the Starbirds. Do you think
that could stick? Sure? Pan pan, Sure.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
We don't want a code three hundred or an angel
that means one of us is dead and then we
just let you sit there for the rest of the show. Hey, Kenna,
we got a code three hundred in here? Can I
get a blanket?
Speaker 2 (29:53):
We can't do anything until one.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
We're just going to travel with the dead body till
one crank up the AC.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
You missed any part to the show, go back and
check out the podcast. Wherever you find podcasts, just type
in Gary and Channon. You'll see all of the day's shows.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
Also that Gas Weekend fix that shows up on the weekends.
What are we going to talk about this weekend?
Speaker 3 (30:13):
You just wait, Okay, I will Gary and Shannon will
continue right after this.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
You've been listening to the Gary and Shannon Show.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
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
A M. Six forty, The Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
It's up the show.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Eddie's got to get to work by nine thirty. He
is part of our gas family and we met I
met him yesterday at an ARII and he's a big fan.
He loves the show and he's got to be to
work at nine thirty. And he wanted me to specifically
tell you. He said, Hi, what did you get at
ari I? And we're all friends now.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Well, Hi, Id, and I hope you're not late to work?
What did you get at ari I?
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Do mean what you think I'm not outdoorsy? You think
I can't go to ari ij and get like a
something they sell a thing that you wear?
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Are you getting doors?
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Are you eating climbing caribbineers or get some caribbeans?
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Thirty two below TVC pipe. I might be picking up
a PVC pipe. I doubt they have PVC pipe.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
I might be getting a socket wrench or some that
I fixed you with.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Okay, let's start the show. Start the show. Sorry, that
was insert music. Yeah, and certainly it's Keana. You saying
I wanted Acapella.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
You know.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Garian Sanman JF. I am six forty live everywhere on
the I heard VIDIA.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I don't know why people don't listen for four hours.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Tuesday, August twenty sixth, Lisa Cook is the name you
had not heard of until yesterday. Probably the President's going
to try to fire her. Her lawyer says that she
will be suing. This is one of the governors on
the Fed Reserve Board who gets to make decisions about
interest rates, et cetera. And he the President says that
(01:52):
she's probably guilty of mortgage fraud, which would be significant
considering her position as somebody who gets to set interest rates.
So we'll talk about that at the bottom of the hour.
A terror in the sky's coming up. The flight attendants
have a very specific and secretive language.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
Yeah, how do they say f you to your face
without you knowing it?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
We'll tell you.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Some new information about our race for governor. Why is
this cracker barrel thing floating.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
To the going away?
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Well, it's so indicative of the change of brands that
have had to change, of unnecessary change, of people not
respecting nostalgia, of companies not understanding their customer base, not
knowing what their base wants.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
Didn't didn't every company learn from New Coke?
Speaker 1 (02:43):
That's there's value in tradition. I believe I had like
a class based on New Coke. I'm sure you did,
like the mistake of not listening to your customers. You know,
it's almost like you know the Woody Show this morning,
and you know they were talking about the salespeople that
(03:06):
sell the Woody Show and they don't know who's on
the Woody Show.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Well, you got to know what you're selling and who
you're selling to.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
I heard that as well, and it was one of
those moments of just absolute clarity.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Clarity.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
I love clarity. Who wants a monsoon? Haboob? Is that
how I say it? Haboob? Haboob? What a fun word
to say. Cassandra was caught up in it yesterday in Phoenix.
Couldn't see anything in front of you. It would just
got really dark.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
It felt like I was found an apocalypse or the
walking apocalypse is such a great word. Lori Joe is
also in the Haboob.
Speaker 5 (03:40):
It goes up thousands of feet and it rolls and
it's fast, it comes.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
I am glad we weren't out in vehicles in that
because that could be very scary.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
A lot of different videos that show this huge wall
of dust swallowing parts of a metro Phoenix yesterday, plunging
the city into narrow ability. In some cases it was
it looked like it was nighttime. Automatic lights were coming
on and things like that. They had to do a
full ground stop at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport because of
(04:11):
this thing.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Would you like to know where the word haboob came from?
I would yes.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Haboob is Arabic for blown. Why we have adopted the
Arabic word for blown to describe a windstorm in Phoenix?
Speaker 2 (04:25):
I don't know. It seems like a mismax. Couldn't we
have like some sort of a Native American name that
would be more traditional? I will find.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
I will find the Native American name for dust storm.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
National Weather Service issued both dust storm and severe thunderstorm
warnings as this thing pushed into Americopa County yesterday. After
the dust came through, they said severe winds and heavy
rains in a few areas did cause some localized flooding
throughout Phoenix. And this is, you know, just a week
after they were topping out at about one hundred and
eighteen degrees in the middle of the day. Oh, by
(04:59):
the way, just like the National Weather Service tells you
to turn around and don't drown because of the potential
for flooding wherever you are, they have one for a boobs.
It's called pull aside. Stay alive. Oh, that's good to
stay out, you know, if you get into it, if
you're on the freeway, if you're on the ten freeway.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Alive, don't really rhyme listen the people. Yeah, I don't know,
not right. I've got a Native American word for dust
storm from Pima. This is the tribe. This is the
language spoken in Arizonas in particular. Jgis is the Pima
word for dust storm. Jgis. There are no boobs in it,
(05:39):
which makes it less fun maybe, and that's maybe why
we've jis. There's a there's a judges. Jugis like judges.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
That's what you've decided. Jugs is the PMA.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
It doesn't sound like a Native American word, doesn't judgis.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Mike Oldbinski is a storm chaser who saw this thing
coming way south down in the Tucson area.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
House of the Kacho Peak, this Red Rock area. Just
we knew that the storms would come out of the
Tucson Marana area, and it actually seemed like it turned
out to be a little more of the stuff that
started by cells. You're the co but we started there
and we you know, I'm used I've used to being
able to kind of stay ahead of them pretty easily,
(06:21):
and this one was moving so fast that between.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Pi Kacho Peak and Cassa Grant we could bear.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Fact.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
I was worried we were going to get stuck, and
if that had happened, I would have been devastated.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
About sixty thousand people were without power after this thing
rolled through yesterday.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
It turns out it was a scientist in Arizona who
first referred to these as haboobs. Maybe an Arabic scientist
or or someone you know was a pension for knockers.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Knockers.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
One scientist in Arizona was also the first to use
the term months soon.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Really, So there you go, there we go.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Well, the weather portion of the show is we blew
that one right away. The President is get it, Yeah,
I get it. Yeah, you don't have to circle back.
Oh you already got the fake laugh. We did it thought,
that's what we do on this radio station Chicago, maybe
getting federal troops. We'll talk about this a showdown between
(07:25):
President Trump and Governor Pritzker and the mayor of Chicago,
et cetera.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
This sounds like it's got staying power and it could
be a real problem.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
Yeah, you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
We got a big day to day.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
We've got guests coming in, best selling authors coming in
to talk about their book all about the marriage game Plan.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Oh here's a question also, we'll talk a little bit
about it in the eleven o'clock hour, But we'd love
to hear your opinions about how much support do you
give adult children? Right financially? I think it is probably
the easiest way to put this because everybody wants to
support their culture and blah blah, but yeah, financial support
to financial support, do you carve out?
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Do you do you give them allowance? Do you help
them in the dark times?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Someone who has no idea, someone who's never been a parent.
I feel like it's a case by case basis, right,
Each kid has different needs, is in a different spot,
you know, one twenty five year old may be different
from another twenty five year old. One thirty five year
old may be different from another thirty five year old.
Do you have a blanket rule? And does that one
size all rule type? Like that one size fits all
(08:37):
rule type, that kind of thing doesn't work for kids, right,
you got to kind of.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
I only have two.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
I can't imagine if there were four, or like my
sister has four kids. I can't imagine the mental math
that it goes that would go into determining that kind
of a thing. Yeah, you know, because you're right, because
each kid is going to be different, They're going to
have different needs.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Are They're going to have different attitudes about money?
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Yes, which I think is probably the most exactly what
would help determine what your reaction would be to them
if they came asking for it, or even if they
didn't come asking for it, but you had the ability
to give it to them, right, a down payment on
a house, or not the full down payment, but a
help on a down payment on a house, something like that.
That was the only time I think I've ever asked
my parents for a significant amount of money was when
(09:25):
we moved to La Well.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Because it makes financial sense to put more into the
down payment, you know, and parents like responsible decisions.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
And they knew that, and I paid them back.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
That's the other part about it is, yeah, I don't
I don't know if a lot of people think about that.
But we made a point of saying that we were
going to pay them. We made a point of saying it,
and then we made a point of actually doing it.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Well, so let us know, use the talkback feature on
the iHeart app. Hit that little button when you're listening
on the app, and tell us how do you support
your kids, your adult kids? If you do or you
just at eighteen gop you're on your own own, we'll
see you. We'll see you at the fiftieth anniversary.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Well yeah, and the support is different, like do you
help them out with rent? I mean when I was
twenty five, twenty four moving to LA which is old
enough to handle your own finances, I had to ask
my parents for money for my first and last month's rent.
I didn't have that. I didn't have any savings. I
have like twenty five dollars of savings.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
And that was twenty years ago.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
I mean this the environment today in terms of being
able to scrape together first and last month's rent.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
It's hard, hard, Yeah, And I had a full time
job and I'm moving here and I'm getting another full
time job and I still couldn't do it.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
But there's that's kind of support. But then there's also.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
You know, cell phone plans and things like that that
have gotten so expensive and how long do you do
that for?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
And you know, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
President Trump has said that he may send federal troops
into Chicago.
Speaker 6 (10:58):
Goos a killing field now, and they don't acknowledge it,
and they say, we don't need him, but we may wait,
we may or may not. We may just go in
and do it, which is probably what we should do.
The problem is it's not nice when you go in
and do it and somebody else is standing there saying,
as we give great results, say well, we don't want
(11:19):
the military.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
They need They.
Speaker 6 (11:21):
Need help badly. Chicago desperately needs help.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
So yesterday there was a big headline that Trump was
going to go after Chris Christy retroactively for Bridgegate, you
remember that, And then there.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Was a pivot to Governor JB.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Pritzker, current governor of Illinois, and he instantly makes a
comment about JB.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Pritzker's weight.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
I've got to believe the two are connected, going after
Chris Christy and then someone getting in Trump's air and
being like, hey, there's a newer guy you can take
aim at. Because Trump does best when he has an
enemy to attack. It's just the way it works to
have a boogeyman. You got to have a guy, and
Pritzker's perfect. He's a potential Democratic presidential hopeful. Trump's aiming
(12:07):
at all these guys, Gavin Newsom, JB. Pritzker, Everyone's going
to have a chance to get a little name or
an insult or something personal thrown at them, and right
now it's JB.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Pritzker's turn.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
The thing with Pritzker is he's not backing down, at
least not yet.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
He told Trump yesterday, do not come to Chicago. You're
neither wanted here nor needed here.
Speaker 7 (12:28):
First thing we're going to do is take him to
court because it's illegal. It's unconstitutional. Frankly, it's on American
to send troops into an American city the way that
he wants to fight crime. There is literally a law
on the books that says he's not allowed to do that.
Our National Guard are extraordinarily well trained. They are trained
to go to war, and they have done so admirably
(12:51):
on behalf of the United States and the people of
Illinois abroad. But they're not trained to go into American
cities and police them.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
When the Guard came to La Trump had the excuse
at the time that he was guarding federal buildings, and
that's why the National Guard and another federal agents actually
came into La because of the demonstrations that erupted out
of the immigration enforcement operations that were going on. A
decision to defy Pritzker, though, to federalized reservists in Chicago
(13:22):
would represent a step towards what everybody has been criticizing
Trump for, which is these dictatorial style moves. Trump yesterday said,
I'm not a dictator. I don't like dictators. Nobody likes dictators.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
We talked about it when it applied to California.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
The President has the authority to deploy the National Guard
over the objections of a state governor, but only in
the rarest of situations. It goes back to Title ten
of the US Code. The special situations are invasion to
suppress rebellion or to execute the laws of the United states.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Some of those have wiggle room, some of them are vague.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
There was a case made for Title ten because of
an invasion of illegal immigrants to Los Angeles that was
made at the time we were talking about it, and then
that goes, of course, into the courts, and then they decide,
you know, the ambiguous terms and what they all mean legally.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Trump has said that this is another one of those
eighty twenty issues where he's pointing out the Democrats are
on the wrong side, because for JB. Pritzker to come
in and say we don't need federal troops and we
don't want federal troops in DC is to ignore that
they're in major cities in the United States.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
There are crime problems.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Now I'm not going to get into the specifics of
crime is up, crime is down, homicides are up, homicides
are down. Those are all statistics that can be manipulated
depending on what you are looking to show.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
But there is a crime problem.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
And if Trump can control the message by saying, if
we don't go in there, your crime will continue and
potentially get work, then he gets the Democrats on their
back feet, because then he's trying to make it seem like, well,
Democrats love that there's crime and they don't want to
do anything about it.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
And this all plays into the campaign for the mid terms,
which are going to be here before you know it.
And then twenty twenty eight, which is, by the way,
why the F open, wide open? Why you don't have
to write that down?
Speaker 2 (15:23):
I am going to write that wide the F. It
was unnecessary, wasn't it. Well, I mean it's there's just
this fun it's a fun way to put it. Yeah, great,
you could have said it wide. I could have said
wide open, wide F and open.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Yeah, I put the the in there, the F, F
and WI more powerful you start.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
I think it's just a creative that's how language evolves. Yes,
you know, you come up with new things, and that's
just a way to put it.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Thanks for muffin today. By the way, you're welcome. Thank you,
you're so welcome.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
We talked about yesterday the Starbucks menu expanding, and I
was just worried that they would be out of muffins.
They were not, so I went into the Starbucks. I like,
pre order it right on the app. I've never been
to the Starbucks in the morning. It's on Hollywood Way
and Verdugo. You walk in and there's a Starbucks employee
who make sure all the to go orders work well.
(16:22):
She's kind of standing to the side and she shouts
every time somebody walks in.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Hello, good morning.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
And I'm like, Jesus rimey, holy hell, lady.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
It is in the eight o'clock hour. I haven't even had.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
I look over at her with a smile, like, not
a smile.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
It was you may you may have thought it was
a smile.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Like is she doing this because she's chipper or is
this And it's almost it was almost like an angry
good morning, good morning.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Hello.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
If I have to get up at four, you're gonna
feel the rat totally.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
And I was like, I'm never coming here again. It
was too much. The volume was at an eleven.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
A couple stories that we are following the parents of
Emmanuel Harrow, that seven month old baby believed to have
been killed by his parents. They are expected to make
their first court appearance today. Jake is thirty two, Rebecca's
forty one, both arrested on suspicion of murder on Friday,
A new poll from UC Berkeley, LA Time shows that
about four in ten voters say they have no idea
(17:34):
who they would vote for for governor. Coming up next year.
We'll talk about that when we get into that next album.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Oh m, hey, I just got an email.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
Boy.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Are preventing harassment and discrimination education continues this season.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
This is from the NFL.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Oh never mind, So now I've got to do harassment
training for this place and that place to harassment trains.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Can't you get credit for the one you did here?
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Curiously and like it's going to stop me from harassing people?
Speaker 2 (18:08):
You learn some new tips and tricks along the road.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
President Trump has decided that he wants to dismiss FED
Reserve Governor Lisa Cook.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
The interesting.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
He's bolstered by a Supreme Court decision six to three
decision that repeatedly allowed him to fire leadership at independent agencies,
but the FED, for the most part in the past,
has been protected in these cases. In May, they said
that the FED Reserve is uniquely structured and that it
(18:45):
should sort of be carved out. It's got a long
history of insulation from political interference from the White House,
and that that should not be changed. But The President
posted a letter last night on social media accusing Lisa
Cook of committing mortgage trot. But I don't know the
specifics of it, but it is something along the lines
of she has she owns multiple properties, and in more
(19:08):
than one she has listed it as her primary residence.
That's that's sort of the allegation against her, And in fact,
Bill Poulty, who is the head of the Federal Housing
Finance Agency, said as much in a criminal complaint against her.
Speaker 8 (19:25):
We have a Federal Reserve governor who's in charge of
setting interest rates, running this entire economy, right hand to
Jerome Powell, committing in my view, mortgage fraud. This can't happen.
I think it gives the President enormous cause to fire her.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Key point right there, and I'm going to repeat it
for you.
Speaker 8 (19:42):
Right hand to Jerome Powell committing, in my view.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Committing in my She's not been charged with mortgage fraud,
and as of today, her lawyers have said very clearly
that she will be fighting this in court. The core
the Supreme Court, as I mentioned, specifically distinguished the Fed
Reserve as being separate from independent agencies because of its
(20:10):
unique structure of sort of a pseudo government and pseudo
private outside agency.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Jack Goldsmith is a law professor at Harvard regularly writes
on administrative law issues, and he said the firing of
Lisa Cook for cause may be pretextual, but obviously.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
It's not obviously illegal.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
The big question, he says, is how the markets react
anything dealing with the FED. And that's what we care about, right,
how the markets react. It's literally flat on the market.
The Dow is literally up one point as in P.
Five hundred is less up less than a tenth of
a percent. NASDAK is also impositive, but barely, just barely
(20:56):
in the positive territory.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
So at this point it appears to have been it
appears to be pretty steady. But this is he can't
fire Jerome Powell, who is the chair of the Federal Reserve.
But if he can fire some of the other governors
that are along in that board, then he gets to
choose who replaces them. Obviously they'd have to be confirmed,
(21:19):
but that's that's his that's his that's his tactic here.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Well, if she's not moving, it's up to Jerome Powell
if he's going to keep signing her paychecks or if
she's going to end up like Milton in office space
and just staying put but not getting paid. The buck
stops with Jerome Powell. I mean, if she then you
could get Jerome then you could fire Jerome Palll for
paying somebody that was fired.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
By the president for cause who knows.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Listen, if she is criminally charged with mortgage fraud, yeah,
boot her, boot her quick that. I mean, that's talk
about an egregious violation of your position if you are
in charge of helping set interest rates, you know in
this country, and one of the major products that is
influenced by interest rates is going to be mortgage rates.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
So yeah, if she but there's convicted, she's got to
get out of there.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
If she's convicted, she's assuming that she's charged. Yeah, exactly,
charged with if there's enough to charge her. All right,
Coming up next, the language of flight attendants. It's a
secret language. And uh, there's some stuff in here. What
are they saying about you?
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Huh? What are they saying about you? Are you a
wide body? What are you a wide body? Maybe?
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Oh maybe just parts of just the tail tail of
the plane. Wow, that all of that got an MD
eighty up front, And okay, can we delete everything that
was said.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Airbus A three eighty on the back end.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
Yeah, Gary and Shannon will continue.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
You're speaking of Big Dumper. Uh, Cal Raley had fifty
home runs, his fiftieth home runs. That's good. That's the
home run derby winner catcher for the Mariners. Yeah, that's fun.
Amy Kings, were got a big dumper?
Speaker 5 (23:08):
WHOA?
Speaker 3 (23:08):
I just always wanted to say that. That's his nickname.
I didn't come up with.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
It, Yeah, askedon answered, We've been through this, sorry, Amy,
Thanks Gar.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
Yeah, you're welcome.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
Do you financially support your adult children and do you
have rules around it if they came to and asked
for money, do you have rules about it?
Speaker 2 (23:39):
And does it change over time?
Speaker 3 (23:40):
We're going to talk about supporting your kids, and I'm
talking not just twenty year olds. I'm talking into their thirties.
Would you do that if you had to let us know?
Of course, the talkback feature on the iHeart app is
a great way for you to send us messages. Just
hit that little button when you're listening on the app
and it sends a message that comes right into the
old computer.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Right here, we have a special edition of Tear in
the Skies.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Roger, get off my plane, Roger Rogers. What's our Victor?
Victor is eno I have had with these muffy pipe
snakes on this money? It's Gary and Shannon's Terror in
the Skies on KFI.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
We can start with the h the ones that are
less disastery, shall we.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Well, I mean Galley.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Everybody knows that Galley's the kitchen. Galley Queen is one
that is a flight attendant. Maybe that's territorial about the galleys.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
This is all about flight attendant vocabulary. Yes, jump seat.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Everybody knows that's a little folding little seat that they
get to sit in and take off and landing, et cetera.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Spinners and runners These are least favorite passengers.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Really.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
A spinner is a passenger who arrives at the last
minute without a seat assignment.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Who does that?
Speaker 1 (25:10):
You know, they're looking around, They're seeing where a seat is.
Runners are the passengers who are late are coming from
another flight.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
Miracle flight a term for a passenger who needs the
assistance of wheelchair to board, but then miraculously does not
require it to get off the plane. Hello, Southwest Airlines. Yeah,
I see that all the time. I used to, and
now I just don't care. I don't deal with it.
It's not my business.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
But I used to just if people that doesn't sound right.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
No, I know what you meant. I know it.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
But like, look at people who are in the wheelchair group, like,
I know what you're doing.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
You're perfectly fine. You just want to get on earlier.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
I just saw this on that last flight I took
Sacramento to Burbank. It's early in the morning, old, older gentleman.
He's a wheelchair and they get him right to the
front of the line.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
They roll him down that jetway.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
When I get on the plane, I see he's sitting
in the absolute front row seat one on the aisle.
That's and you know fine, I got no problem with that.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
I was in early seat. It's not like he took
my seat or anything.
Speaker 3 (26:17):
Then when we get to Burbank, you got a board
or you gotta disembark out of the outside. I mean
you're running down that Z shaped ramp right, sir, Would
you like to wait for the wheelchair? No, I got it,
And he booked down that thing like he was Carl Lewis.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Oh yeah, ultra marathon runner. Let's see here.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Pink eye is a flight that's slightly earlier than a
red eye. Crouch watch is what's called when a flight
attendant is in charge of checking for for seat belts.
This is all pretty like, Okay, here's the nitty gritty,
ready for it. This is the nitty gritty. Code three
hundred and or angel. Okay, that sounds innocuous. It sounds nice,
(26:57):
doesn't it. Code three hundred sounds like maybe you know, uh,
did you check the cross check then angel?
Speaker 2 (27:05):
That sounds nice. It means someone's dead on that cross taking.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Yeah, thank you. It means someone's dead on the plane.
If you hear code three hundred or angel, that means
there's a dead body on the plane. Sometimes they just
like put a blanket over it and move on. Code
yellow it's not urination. It means it is a minor
medical situation, maybe a passengers feeling nauseous or faint. It's
(27:31):
not as dire as you know the dead code three hundred, Guy,
Peter Pan, serious but not life threatening?
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Pan Pan? Oh, I'm sorry. Why did I say, Peter Pan?
I don't know, but it.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Makes sense because this is a step down maybe from
from may Day.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
They would say, Pan Pan.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Pan Pan is like a loss of an aircraft system
that is not an immediate problem, but it's gonna need
to be taken care of when they land.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Also, the name of the new panda that was born
at the Shanghai Zoo last year, is it really?
Speaker 5 (28:01):
No?
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Oh, panpan, that's nice? Uh, squawk seven hundred or hotel.
You're gonna want to listen for that. Squawk seven hundred
or hotel because those mean that your flight has been hijacked.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
That's that doesn't sound fun. It's not a mermaid.
Speaker 3 (28:20):
A mermaid In crew member code signifies a passenger who
sprawls out across several seats, often with the goal or
preventing other passengers from sitting down. I saw this again
on that flight because it was about half full and
people just let their stuff go.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Yeah, they'd sit in one seat and then throw.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
A jacket and a briefcase or something like that across
the two other seats so that they would have the
row entirely to themselves.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Code adam. If a child goes missing on a plane,
how when does that happen?
Speaker 2 (28:49):
How does that sounds lely Neeson movie.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Yeah, that's that's ridiculous, and he ends up in the
cargo hold or something something.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
Liam Neeson's got to get him because he has a
particular set of skills. VIP, by the way, very important person,
also potentially very irritating passenger. So if you are referred
to as a v I, we have a VIP in
two c h Maybe they're talking smack about you.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Can we adopt something on this program? Squawk S seven
hundred doesn't really apply. We don't have hijackers here, code yellow,
we hope, we don't have any medical We could do
pan pan like when the when the program is not
going down essentially, but it's a problem starting to show
just a we lost one engine. Maybe we got a
(29:35):
pan pan here.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
We've got a bird in the Starbirds. Do you think
that could stick? Sure? Pan pan, Sure.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
We don't want a code three hundred or an angel
that means one of us is dead and then we
just let you sit there for the rest of the show. Hey, Kenna,
we got a code three hundred in here? Can I
get a blanket?
Speaker 2 (29:53):
We can't do anything until one.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
We're just going to travel with the dead body till
one crank up the AC.
