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):
One hundred elephants. Have you heard about this?
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Well, they looked pretty cool. I will say that. Yes,
I'm a fan of Pacaderms and they're pretty cool looking.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Oh we're using fancy words now.
Speaker 4 (00:20):
Well, I have the freedom to do that. Do you
know why? Because it's Independence Day? Hello, Hey, Gary and Shannon.
Speaker 5 (00:25):
Well, I'm in Las Vegas, driving back to Orange County
just to visit some friends of mine who have a
block party every year. I never miss it. Every Fourth
of July. I'm there like clockwork and big old, huge
block party, tons of food, tons of fireworks. It's out
of control. It's madness. I love it. I look forward
to it every year. Happy forth, everybody.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
That was a big deal going on.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
When I was growing up, we had we lived in
one house the entire time, so our neighbors were stable
and we would constantly have huge blowout else on the
Fourth of July.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
I like, how you say that my neighbors were stable.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
Well, I mean they didn't change. There wasn't a lot
of thet there wasn't a lot of turnover on Falo Street.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I mean, they could have had.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
People locked up in the basement, but in terms of
the fourth they were, they were always there and up
then don't know how stable they really were. By the way,
we're talking about snakes Kiana. If you want to see
Keano looks like a supermodel with a python around her.
We have posted this at Gary and Shannon, and you
look so calm and so happy. I trust I was
(01:35):
terror but it's a really good picture. I was.
Speaker 6 (01:38):
I was a after school tutor, and so I'm sitting
in front of all of the after school students and
they're just like watching me in horror as I'm holding
this because no one else would do it, And so
I had the guts to hold this thing, and I
was terrified.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
I bet they really paid attention to you and listened
after that day, oh.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
One hundred percent.
Speaker 6 (02:00):
I was the only one that had guts And oh.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
My gosh, I can just feel the weight on my shoulders.
It's creepy.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Ah.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Well, it's Independence Day and that means that kfis Michael
Monks is somehow on the job today.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
What Elmer?
Speaker 2 (02:23):
I like that Michael Monks as Mike has turned.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Out there it is.
Speaker 7 (02:26):
I'm sitting in your seat, Shannon, and I'm absorbing your essence.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Oh I like that.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I like that our essences are melding.
Speaker 7 (02:34):
They're melding, and we will create a monster when Gary's
away clean.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
I can't wait. We're gonna have so much play time.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
It will be fired by Thursday.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Thursday, Tuesday at noon, we're out of here.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
It's going to be here on the fourth of July.
Speaker 7 (02:48):
Because literally this building is empty, and so you get
a lot of work done if you got stopped to.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Do more empty than normal.
Speaker 7 (02:56):
Yeah, I mean it's kind of quiet anyway. But the
snack drawers all yours. You know, there's nobody judging you
if you're having a third bag of goldfish and fettered
access completely across right day. The coffee is still boiling hot.
It's good.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Last weekend, my wife and I drove to Malibu for
the first time since the fires. We were there because
we had done the story about how you know, tourism
was down and they need some more money. So we
went and had lunch and hung out for a couple
hours and did not leave pch. We did not drive
through the neighborhoods. There's plenty of destruction that you can
see right along PCH but the city of la is
(03:29):
now trying to cut down on what they refer to
as disaster tourism through the fire zone.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
That's right. This is I'll tell you this.
Speaker 7 (03:37):
When the fires were happening, and really right after the
biggest part of the fire died down and you could
really take in what was left behind. I was there
reporting for us here at KFI, and it was a
scene like nothing I have ever witnessed, you know, especially
because you know these communities and we know people impacted
by this, so it just hit so strong. But I
(04:00):
remember thinking, both in Altadena and in Palisades, people should
see this. You know, there's a lot that could be
gained from seeing it. One you truly understand the horror
that your neighbors experienced, you might better understand the threat
of a wildfire right if it were to come to
your neighborhood exactly, so like when you get the warnings
to run, do you know have your affairs in order
(04:24):
be prepared if you live in a fire zone. But
at the same time, now that these communities are in
that period of finally putting it back together, literally putting
it back together. There's been concerns that there are tour
buses making their way through Palisades, commercial tour buses. Not
just lookie loose, who might swing over there on our
way back home and just take a look.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
These are people who are making some money off of this.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
So my question would be, simply, rather than ban it
right and drive it underground, why doesn't the city charge
a premium on this? You guys want to go check
it out, that's totally fine, but we're going to charge
you four times what you think.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
You should pay.
Speaker 7 (05:02):
That was exactly my thought back in January and in
February when it was still smoldering and you could take
it in, and I was thinking, people need to see this.
How can you do it in a tasteful way, How
can you do it in a productive way? Is there
a way to ten twenty bucks in the till and
that money goes towards some community effort to fix things?
Because I know people want to see it, And if
you live in San Bernardino County, you watch this on
(05:24):
the news, you want to come in and take a look.
That's totally natural. It's not necessarily bloodlust. You should feel
what happened in this region, but is there a way
to do it tastefully that That's not the approach that's
been taken by the city. The city council has put
a restriction on these buses. They're not going to allow
them to come through as long as there remains an
emergency declaration related to the wildfires that is still in effect.
(05:47):
Obviously there's still a lot of work to do there,
so no bus towards for now. They hope to make
that permanent, though.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
I again, I just feel like this is a yes
there if you live or let's let's assume that your
house was not one of those that burned down still damaged.
I think every home there was probably damaged to some
degree and you hadn't been able to move back. Now
you're allowed to go back into your home into what
amounts to a devastated neighborhood. The last thing you're going
(06:16):
to want to see is a bus full of people
popping out with the you know, the cameras and whatever,
taking pictures or even just slowing down in your neighborhood,
because that adds insult to injur I'd want to shoot them. Well,
that's all another reason why we go less lethal.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Right, that's right, right, that's right.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
That's why I have a burnout BYRNA dot com burner.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Michael, it's weird calling you Michael. I don't know.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
I like it.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Okay, what are you eating today?
Speaker 4 (06:45):
Wait a minute? Why I want to Why is it
weird to call him Michael?
Speaker 2 (06:49):
I don't because I usually call him Michael Monks.
Speaker 7 (06:51):
Oh, it's my full government name or just the casual
first name is okay as well.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
I feel like, what's your nickname?
Speaker 4 (06:59):
I ever had one?
Speaker 7 (07:00):
You know, when I was a kid, I tried to
make Mikey a thing and that didn't click and it
doesn't work anyway.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
Mikey Monks is annoying. However, my can I say.
Speaker 7 (07:10):
Biological father on the air, Yeah, you know without bringing
up the trauma of it.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
Well, we got a full a.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Lot of My biological father was a bartender who I
don't even know.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
See, I love that for you, because that's that fuels you.
It fuels me. Now.
Speaker 7 (07:25):
Look, I don't have like, I don't know this guy,
but I know that his name is Mickey, and I thought, God,
that is a great name. It's a great name.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
It's a great name.
Speaker 7 (07:34):
Mickey Mickey Monks doesn't work either because it's the two
syllable one syllable that it just is really is too
much Key there. Yeah, I like Mickey too, but well,
I'll just let you know his his last name is Bashem,
and I was like, if I had his name, if
my name were Mickey Basham, which again I don't like
saying this out loud because you know, I don't know
this guy, but Mickey Basham, Mickey Basham.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Okay, if I knew it's a good boxing name. I
don't know what our name.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
This guy has wasted that name adult on the adult team.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
I think we're just trying to ignore it.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Oh yeah, was that weird?
Speaker 4 (08:12):
It was a little weird. But Mickey Basham has wasted
that name.
Speaker 7 (08:17):
You know what a trailer in Lovin Injunction, Kentucky, and
I'm here in Hollywood without that name.
Speaker 3 (08:25):

I'm too old to be Mikey. Now, that's a kid's nickname.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
It reminds me of that little kid.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Mikey likes it.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Yeah, exactly, I like Mickey. Mickey sounds like you live
in the underworld.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
I know, and I kind of do. I live in
downtown Los Angeles, exactly.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Are you what are you eating today?
Speaker 7 (10:21):
Okay, so I have a regardless of the holiday, I'm
not We're not doing anything special, mostly just dodging the
fireworks that blow up in skid Row nightly anyway, but
particularly today, I've got a Friday tradition and I usually
enjoy a frape on the roof a Friday. It's Friday Friday,
(10:41):
we have. But there's a You're not gonna believe this,
but there are like eleven Starbucks near me, so I
know it's crazy, but yeah, there's a lot.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Oh so you know you don't do the Friday frat
pee on the roof of this building.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
No, on my building?
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Oh you're what kind of frat pey.
Speaker 7 (10:55):
Do you get I like a caramel. I'll also do
if there's a not novelty one. If there's a novelty
one that they've got seasonally, I will try it. Yeah,
but I always go back to that caramel.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
I've been flying fast and loose, at loose at coffee places,
trying new things.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
You got it.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
I had a black tie the other day.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
Oh what's that?
Speaker 1 (11:16):
I don't know, but I had it and was delicious.
A lot of them have a ridiculous amount of sugar
involved that I didn't even know about.
Speaker 7 (11:24):
You know, it needs to be something that you treat
like a milkshake. It's not like you're having a cold coffee.
It is a not a health food.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
It's not no wow, a black tie, layered sweetened condensed milk,
cold brew iced coffee, chickory infused simple syrup, and then
a float of half and half on top.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
It was dessert and a cup at seven am.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
Yeah, that's too early for that.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Straight to the diabetes.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Absolutely.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Now what about ice cream? Is there ice cream involved today?
Speaker 9 (11:57):
You know?
Speaker 7 (11:57):
Let me tell you this because I know you think
that I'm all over the place, but this isn't just
going to be an ice cream shop that we're working
on in the Beta face. Still it's a confectionery and
my my spouse, by my request, didn't know if he
could do it, but he did it. He made a
delicious batch of Divinity.
Speaker 8 (12:19):
What is that?
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Have you ever had Divinity candy? So no, we're going
to bring some in very soon.
Speaker 7 (12:24):
It's it's something my grandmother liked, so I tend to
associate it with old ladies.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
But we bought some. You know, I went to Carmel recently.
Speaker 7 (12:33):
I had the shirt that says Carmel on it and
figured that, yeah, yeah, because I went to Carmel and
I picked up the shirt. But what I also picked
up was this is this candy store on the main
drag there, and they had Divinity for sale and we
bought two pieces because he had never had it. And
the two pieces cost us thirteen dollars and you know,
they're they're you know, it's a it's a hearty piece,
(12:54):
but it's not you know, it's not thirteen dollars. But
I was telling him, I was like, this is what
I mean, dude, people kind of money for gandy and
ice cream.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
Learn how to make divinity. We're gonna learn to learn
how to make top.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
A merangue cookie.
Speaker 7 (13:06):
It's if you have a better definition pulled up over there, Gary,
I don't.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
That's exactly what I was going to say.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I've had these before.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
This used to be my favorite cookie from like a
bakery that was near my elementary school. But I thought
it was like a merangue cookie. But it looks exactly like.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
What that was.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Yeah, and it's it's it's a lot of sugar. It's
it's good. Got sort of a.
Speaker 7 (13:30):
Chalk, a soft chalk feeling, not taste, not taste.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
But texture.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
It's like hollow inside.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
No, it's not hollow, it's dense and uh.
Speaker 7 (13:40):
And you know you can put a nut on it
on top, like a like a pecan, oh, and.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
Or an almonds.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Did you make these?
Speaker 7 (13:49):
He made them and it was perfect. It was exactly
what I'd asked him to do. So, like this whole thing,
when you're not even ready, he does everything I tell him.
It's so good everything, sugar, corn, syrup, egg whites. And
the challenge and the why I had to let him
do it because I'm unsurprisingly not very very talented in
(14:11):
the kitchen. This involves a very precise temperature when one
of the steps takes place.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
I did see a recipe that had a candy thermometer exactly.
Speaker 7 (14:23):
The candy thermometer is involved, and you have to hit
like one hundred and seventy or some odd degree at
a precise point, and then you have to do something
with it. And I was like, I'm out, I'm out.
I can't try this on my Like I can make
the ice cream on my own, but that I can't.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Is the is the thermometer that he's using the old
fashioned mercury thermometer or is it an electronic one?
Speaker 7 (14:46):
It came off of our espresso machine. Ah, yeah, Oh yes,
it's an electronic. Yeah, it's a good one. Okay, So
you can set the alarm for when it hits that thing.
You're not looking at it. You you can wait, you
can do something else. The alarm goes off, and then
you do whatever the next step would be exactly.
Speaker 9 (15:02):
You know.
Speaker 7 (15:02):
There it was several steps, but email it first, try
so it's on and now we're gonna try toffee next.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
I'm in.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:11):
Yeah, now the whole thing is gonna get you.
Speaker 7 (15:12):
Guys aren't even ready when I open this business on
whatever the main street in Ventura is because that's what
I'm feeling now.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
I think it's going to Ventura. That's where Michael Monks
wants to to settle down, raise a family and live
and open up his confectionery.
Speaker 9 (15:29):
Yeah. I don't know why.
Speaker 7 (15:29):
It just so, you know, I looked at it and
I thought, Ventura looks kind of like it's got a
nice but.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
It's such a fun time. It's a great place to
raise a family. I love this for you.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Climate wise, it's good for confections.
Speaker 7 (15:41):
Yeah, I don't know what's the candy scene like in Ventura.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Is there some serious read You're gonna have to deal
with some saltwater taffy mafia?
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Probably.
Speaker 7 (15:52):
I don't think we're gonna offer it. We're not going
to offer saltwater. No, No, We're going to offer saltwater divinity.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
What are confections? What are confections? Gotcha?
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Oh jeez, I'm sorry. I don't know what I mean.
I don't even know what the hiring process is.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
He has a master's degree.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Well, you know, so weird confections is kind of an
old timey term.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Guys.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
I don't live an old timey I live a present time.
That's an excellent elmer doesn't live an old timy. Yeah,
I guess that's true. But I like the term confectionery,
and I think it's going to be in the name.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
You're also going to open up a harbor dasherie?
Speaker 9 (16:36):
Is that right?
Speaker 7 (16:36):
I had, you know, back in Kentucky. I I thought
if I didn't, if I left the media and I
was going to be entrepreneurial and somewhere else, it was
going to be clothing related, And absolutely that word would
have been in the title.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
You do I know you?
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Or do I know you?
Speaker 9 (16:48):
You know?
Speaker 7 (16:48):
It's because I'm sitting in I've absorbed your essence and
somehow you've absorbed mine.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
Find a different term, because that's good.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
I like your essence.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
Stop it.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I like it when you call me mickey.
Speaker 8 (17:01):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI

Freedom.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
You got it every Birthday, America. Thank you's.
Speaker 11 (17:46):

that he would use his Green Valley Ranch rewards card.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Cook I go too.
Speaker 11 (18:01):
Oh, I live in Henderson and it's right down the
street from my house, and oh my gosh, that made
my day.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
Thank you guys for working today. I appreciate you. God
bless America. Thank you for that visual. You watching me
do cocaine.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Watching you cut up cocaine with your Green Valley Ranch
from Henderson card with the intent to do it is
all the visual I need, even if I didn't actually
do it right, just a preparation.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
Okay, there's again again.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Kids, You can't drug cocaine anymore.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
Don't do it.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
They put the stuff in it these days. It kills
you that that the ship has sailed.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
There's no more cocaine fun time, so you only die
from drugs these days.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
I wanted to point out where did it go oh,
Angels beat the Braves yesterday five to one.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
They're actually in Toronto. How very Unamerican of them.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
On the four July tonight, Dodgers swept the White Sox
with a six two win yesterday, So the Astros are
in town. They hated Astros coming in at seven tonight.
In fact, you can listen to all Hold on a.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Second, is there a mess up?
Speaker 8 (19:15):
Did I?
Speaker 9 (19:15):
No?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
I think I messed up because I do believe the game.
I said seven. I think it's an hour early. It's
at six. I think it is at six tonight. Anyway,
that game.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Tonight, what a glaring error.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
You can listen to all the Dodgers games at whatever
time they start on AM five to seventy LA Sports
Live from the Gallvin Motors Broadcast Booth and stream all

Speaker 1 (19:44):
He was talking about how he he said, yeah, I
walked into the house, Butler, I told the kids, baseball

since they brought over the Bad Boy.

thought baseball season was over. Poor Giants fans.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Uh, well, we can hope for something at some point
in the season.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Maybe enjoy the sunshine. Yeah, enjoy the crab sandwiches.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
That sounds awful. Heather Brooker has joined us.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
We talk entertainment with Heather, and since she pulled the
overnight shift, basically this morning, we're going to do it
to right now instead of later on in the show.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
What's going on?
Speaker 12 (20:36):
Well, first of all, I'm sorry, I look like I
rolled out of a trash bag this morning. I didn't
think anyone was going to be here in person. I
thought everyone's gonna be working from home today.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Gary, I'm looking at just trash in that room, So
you're fine.
Speaker 12 (20:47):
So I literally look like I just rolled out and
put on whatever was nearby, and I did. This is
a big weekend that the movies. Fourth of July is
typically known as, like, you know, the big releases, and
Universal is uh, well, they're bringing back their Jurassic World franchise.
They're hoping to kind of restart it and reboot it,
rekick it off with Jurassic World Dominion stars Scarlett Johanson
(21:12):
and Mahershela Ali Jonathan Bailey from Wicked, And you know what,
I was in full clinch mode the entire time, like
full body clinch.
Speaker 4 (21:22):
This was I thought, really suspenseful.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
The wait, hold on a second, the dinosaurs get out
and they might kill people.
Speaker 12 (21:30):
They don't get out, they're already out. Oh no, oh no,
they go to the island.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
Where Why would they do that?
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Because the story demands it.
Speaker 12 (21:40):
Gary Okay, the whole like first like forty five minutes
of the movie is basically like Jurassic Jaws. It's like
Jurassic World in the ocean, and it is terrifying. That part,
for me, was really scary. There's a lot of jump
scares throughout the movie. If you're a fan of dinosaurs,
if you love to see dinosaurs in the big screen,
this is a good movie. It's you know, people are
(22:02):
glad that it's back. However, there's a lot of critics.
You know, people gotta complain. They like they don't think
that the story is as fleshed out. A lot of
people think Scarlet Johansson is just kind of, you know,
giving mid for this performance.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
And I liked it.
Speaker 12 (22:17):
I thought it was a fun movie. I thought, again,
it's one of those blockbuster movies. It's dinosaurs on the
big screen, the world that they've flushed out here they've
kind of gone back to the island where this picks
up a few years after. Oh, I think I said,
did I say Rebirth or Dominion? I meant to say,
this is Jurassic World.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
Rebirth. Dominion was the last one.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Oh okay, so this comes is not the one where
the dinosaurs get out.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
Yes, that's the same one.
Speaker 12 (22:41):
Oh, they start killing people, So now they're going back
to the island. This takes place a few years after Dominion,
and it's fun. It's a you know, get yourself again
some popcorn. Enjoy the dinosaurs on the big screen. It's
beautifully shod.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
But why are people.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Hating on a movie that we know we're gonna get
the dinosaurs are gonna get out, it's gonna be scary.
Enjoy the cgi what more do you want?
Speaker 12 (23:06):
I think it's because they're like, oh, the story wasn't
you know, great and you know, because there's a family
for some reason, there's a dad with his two young
daughters sailing by the island with the deadly dinosaurs right
at the same time.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Is the story ever great?
Speaker 1 (23:20):
I mean, and that woman was wearing the heels and
the skirt and it's like, why are you wearing heels?
Speaker 2 (23:25):
It was a whole thing.
Speaker 12 (23:26):
It was so crazy making why Bryce Ellis Howard was
wearing heels in that home movie. But this one feels
like more I feel like the original Jurassic Park. It's
in like this tropical setting. There's jump scares, there are
people being eaten. It's just it's fun to see the
dinosaurs back on the big screen. You know what you're
gonna get. It's the same I would say, it's the
(23:47):
same playbook maybe of the Transformers movies.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Yes, like we know what, there's robots and they turn
into things that you didn't expect them to do, and
then they're going to turn into robots again.
Speaker 4 (23:58):
Exactly.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
It's that, But they're something. To Shannon's point, it's a
known quantity. And as much as we complain about lack
of creativity or too many sequels or whatever, there's a
reason why why the production companies make them, and it's
because they will rake in the money.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
I mean, it's.
Speaker 12 (24:16):
Already made one hundred and twenty seven million dollars in
pre sales, and it's expected to make you know, quite
a bit more over the coming weeks. But it's got
some big competition coming up next weekend with Superman weighing out.
Speaker 4 (24:28):
Couldn't you stick around for another segment?
Speaker 2 (24:29):
I can two. I mean, she's only been here since
two in the morning. Right, that's another hurt. I haven't.
Speaker 12 (24:36):
I'm staying anyway to help Michael with someone later, So
I'm gonna be here for a while.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
So are you gonna are you gonna make divinity with him?
Speaker 9 (24:41):
No?
Speaker 4 (24:43):
That does sound dirty. Sorry, we'll edit that out. Don't worry.
Speaker 8 (24:48):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
We get to the top of the hour, we'll talk
just about the President's signing ceremony today, some other stuff
going on in DC.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Oh, also, how UFC is going to make its way
to the White House lawn.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
Oh, yeah, that would be pretty amazing.
Speaker 13 (25:09):
Shannon's Bill m Lorraine calling from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. God bless America. Yes, God,
bless you two for working today. Have a great day
and happy fourth of July.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
Oh that's very nice. All the way from Harrisburg, PA.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
What a great place right home river there you got
the National Civil War Museum.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
I just found a the Harrisburg Nationals. I think one
of the minor league affiliates for the Washington Nationals plays
in a stadium or play in a stadium that exists
on an island like out in the river.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Hm, that's the end of my story. How about you guys.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Sorry the Susquehanna Oh.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
Here is sports Sports sports Heather.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
So I was thinking, I mean, is there a better
movie for the big screen than Jurassic World?
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Drastic any Jurassic vehicle?
Speaker 4 (26:11):
Really?
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Who wants to watch dinosaurs on their home screen when
you can go to the theater. This is what theaters
were made for, dinosaurs exactly.
Speaker 12 (26:19):
And this movie truly expands on the world of where
the dinosaurs live. We see different types of dinosaurs in
this movie. They are larger than life. I don't know,
they're like the weird thing kind of. I feel like
they made up names. They are like hybrids because they
were doing scientific experiments and then the lab had to
be shut down spoilers because there was an accident.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
If you have one, you kind.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Of what's your favorite dinosaur? Favorite dinosaursaurus?
Speaker 12 (26:48):
Probably the Brontosaurus because it's so gentle, tall and elegant.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
It's a vegetarian. Yeah, I know, I'm not gonna be
eaten if we hang out.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
That's like all I rom remember about that dinosaurs. It's
a vegetarian. I guess it's the first vegetarian dinosaur we
learn about in school.
Speaker 12 (27:06):
I would say most people really like the what the moment,
the little tiny.
Speaker 4 (27:11):
The Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Speaker 12 (27:12):
You guys, I interviewed Chris Pratt and Bryce Alice Howard
for the Last Jurassic Movie, and I am such a dork.
I was sitting there with them and I go, I
just have to tell you, guys, this movie is dino.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Might go wow, I.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
You know what we just ran out of tun Yeah,
you know what we're fresh out.
Speaker 12 (27:34):
God, if you don't want me to cover your intament anymore,
I promise I won't.
Speaker 4 (27:38):
I won't make any REREQUI why did you do that?
But here's the deal.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
They all just excuse yourself at that point and just
say I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
I have to go.
Speaker 14 (27:45):
They both go, ah, we see what you did there.
I'm so uncomfortable, Mom, Do you do you have secondhand
embarrassment for me?
Speaker 4 (27:55):
Totally? I come afraid to look at your actually.
Speaker 12 (28:00):
Like ten shades of red right now because I'm like,
I can't believe I told that story publicly, but then
I posted it on my social media like I was
clearly proud of that moment.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
I couldn't confirm if she has read. So what else?
Speaker 9 (28:12):
I mean?
Speaker 3 (28:13):
We talked about Superman the coming Out, and I'm going
to say it like that is I.
Speaker 12 (28:18):
Have seen it, but I am under like an embargo
and I'm not allowed to even like.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Talk about it. You give me a hand signal I can. Okay,
but it is and I just did so.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
Shannon, I know what it was. I can feel it.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
You could feel it. I will say.
Speaker 12 (28:34):
I got to meet some of the cast and the crew,
not the crew, just the cast, and sorry is not
good enough for you, okay.
Speaker 4 (28:43):
I don't know why you remember of the I her
name is.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Heaven, Bro's not so dynamite.
Speaker 12 (28:52):
I met the cast, had a great time with them,
talking with them. Even got a little something special coming
up next week for Gary and Shannon. I'm excited to
share that, but I can't say anything about the movie
in terms of like reviewing it or whatever until next week.
But I will be spilling all of the tea about it,
and I think I think fans will be happy.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
I think I can say that.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
And Superman is another one of those stories that's been
told multiple times, so I'm curious to see what this is.
Speaker 12 (29:22):
Very much James Gun's take on it. Yeah, and yeah,
I think fans will be happy with it, but I
will You're not going to be here next week, are you.
I'll be here in spirit, okay, darn it. And then Odyssey.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
I saw a lot of a lot of interesting headlines
about this that there is a trailer out there for this.
Speaker 12 (29:43):
Yes, so apparently they released a trailer the first kind
of look that we're getting at Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey,
and they started showing it before Jurassic World movies this
week the Jurassic World rebirth, and fans were kind of
I think they're mostly there's some people who are kind
of upset because John barenthal is speaking with an American
(30:05):
accent in his regular accent in the film, and people
are like, hold on a second. This took place twenty nine,
almost three thousand years before the founding of America.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
Why doesn't he have some sort of accent?
Speaker 12 (30:17):
But it's like, if that's your only beef with it, Like,
come on, if it's going to be a great.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Movie, that's like somebody taking issue with was it Kevin
Costner and Robin Hood thirty years ago?
Speaker 4 (30:28):
Everybody had an accent but him? Right right?
Speaker 12 (30:32):
I feel like though a lot of this is, you know,
you talk about sometimes citizen journalist, like the people on
social media who are trying to be news create you know,
news coverage or news anchors, whatever. The same thing is
happening with movie critics. They're like citizen critics. Basically, it's
guys and some gals living in their mom's basement who
have decided to start talking about movies and stuff on
(30:56):
the Internet and on TikTok and whatnot. And they're getting
so much credibility that they're being invited two press junkets
and two red carpets to interview actual celebrities and casts
and stuff like that. And that makes me a little crazy.
I'm not gonna lie, but that's yes.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
But in a general conversation, that's happened with political journalism,
it's happened with sports journalism. Yes, I mean it's all
these different aspects.
Speaker 12 (31:19):
What point do we stop trusting people's opinion, Because here's
the deal. They're not going to tell you what they
really think about the movie in the way that like
a seasoned journalist, someone who has training really would, because
they don't want to be uninvited to the next big event.
They don't want to be off Disney's list, they don't
want to be off Universal's lists. So they're not ever
going to give you like a true reaction.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
You know.
Speaker 12 (31:43):
They may say something for clicks and likes, you know,
but I don't know, as somebody who enjoys movies and
covers it a lot. That makes me a little crazy.
The Citizen critics.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
The Odyssey Star. Listen to this cast list. You have
Matt Damon obviously, as as Odysseus, Tom Holland and Hathaway,
Zendaia Lupita and Yongo, Robert Pattinson, Charlie's Thereon, John Burnthall,
John Leguizamo, Elliott Page, Mia goth This is a that's
(32:13):
an incredible list.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Yeah, Elliott Page, isn't it?
Speaker 9 (32:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (32:18):
Yeah, it's going to be.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
Has he been anything recently, like since all of the changes, Yes,
I mean yeah, but like not recently, right.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
Nothing, that's nothing that has been released widespread.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
I'll tell you that the Umbrella Academy on Netflix.
Speaker 4 (32:35):
Yeah, I think which one, Umbrella Academy.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right, that's what it was.
That's what I'm that's like the most recent one that.
Speaker 4 (32:42):
Was a good show. It's gonna this is gonna be
a great movie. I mean it doesn't.
Speaker 12 (32:46):
We're already talking about and the buzz is already happening
and it doesn't even come out for another like year
year or so next July.
Speaker 4 (32:53):
So that's gonna be a good one.
Speaker 12 (32:54):
One other movie, you guys, you know, may not be
on your radar for right now for this weekend, but
it should be Sovereign with Nick Offerman from Parks and
rec This is a great dramatic role for him. It
is a very interesting and unique movie. It's more of
an indie film. It stars also Dennis Quaid and Jacob Tremblay,
(33:15):
and he plays like an anti government extremist and it's
a really they're talking towards bait already for Nick Offerman
for this. He's had a lot of great dramatic turns
recently and this is a wonderful movie for him to
be in.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
And then Heads of State on Amazon Prime. I keep
saying that is good.
Speaker 12 (33:34):
It is so funny and so ridiculous if you if
you think about it, like it's a John Cena is
playing like a Trump like character, Indricelba is playing like
a British prime minister type character, and they they have
to partner up together whacking his ensues. It's just a fun,
silly comedy and I think it's definitely worth watching this
(33:55):
weekend for sure.
Speaker 4 (33:57):
Okay, thank you, Thanks you guys. It's fun.
Speaker 7 (34:00):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (34:00):
Hey, let us know what your is on your menu

Speaker 3 (34:03):

This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI

on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
One hundred elephants. Have you heard about this?
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Well, they looked pretty cool. I will say that. Yes,
I'm a fan of Pacaderms and they're pretty cool looking.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Oh we're using fancy words now.
Speaker 4 (00:20):
Well, I have the freedom to do that. Do you
know why? Because it's Independence Day? Hello, Hey, Gary and Shannon.
Speaker 5 (00:25):
Well, I'm in Las Vegas, driving back to Orange County
just to visit some friends of mine who have a
block party every year. I never miss it. Every Fourth
of July. I'm there like clockwork and big old, huge
block party, tons of food, tons of fireworks. It's out
of control. It's madness. I love it. I look forward
to it every year. Happy forth, everybody.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
That was a big deal going on.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
When I was growing up, we had we lived in
one house the entire time, so our neighbors were stable
and we would constantly have huge blowout else on the
Fourth of July.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
I like, how you say that my neighbors were stable.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
Well, I mean they didn't change. There wasn't a lot
of thet there wasn't a lot of turnover on Falo Street.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I mean, they could have had.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
People locked up in the basement, but in terms of
the fourth they were, they were always there and up
then don't know how stable they really were. By the way,
we're talking about snakes Kiana. If you want to see
Keano looks like a supermodel with a python around her.
We have posted this at Gary and Shannon, and you
look so calm and so happy. I trust I was
(01:35):
terror but it's a really good picture. I was.
Speaker 6 (01:38):
I was a after school tutor, and so I'm sitting
in front of all of the after school students and
they're just like watching me in horror as I'm holding
this because no one else would do it, And so
I had the guts to hold this thing, and I
was terrified.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
I bet they really paid attention to you and listened
after that day, oh.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
One hundred percent.
Speaker 6 (02:00):
I was the only one that had guts And oh.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
My gosh, I can just feel the weight on my shoulders.
It's creepy.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Ah.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Well, it's Independence Day and that means that kfis Michael
Monks is somehow on the job today.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
What Elmer?
Speaker 2 (02:23):
I like that Michael Monks as Mike has turned.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Out there it is.
Speaker 7 (02:26):
I'm sitting in your seat, Shannon, and I'm absorbing your essence.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Oh I like that.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I like that our essences are melding.
Speaker 7 (02:34):
They're melding, and we will create a monster when Gary's
away clean.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
I can't wait. We're gonna have so much play time.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
It will be fired by Thursday.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Thursday, Tuesday at noon, we're out of here.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
It's going to be here on the fourth of July.
Speaker 7 (02:48):
Because literally this building is empty, and so you get
a lot of work done if you got stopped to.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Do more empty than normal.
Speaker 7 (02:56):
Yeah, I mean it's kind of quiet anyway. But the
snack drawers all yours. You know, there's nobody judging you
if you're having a third bag of goldfish and fettered
access completely across right day. The coffee is still boiling hot.
It's good.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Last weekend, my wife and I drove to Malibu for
the first time since the fires. We were there because
we had done the story about how you know, tourism
was down and they need some more money. So we
went and had lunch and hung out for a couple
hours and did not leave pch. We did not drive
through the neighborhoods. There's plenty of destruction that you can
see right along PCH but the city of la is
(03:29):
now trying to cut down on what they refer to
as disaster tourism through the fire zone.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
That's right. This is I'll tell you this.
Speaker 7 (03:37):
When the fires were happening, and really right after the
biggest part of the fire died down and you could
really take in what was left behind. I was there
reporting for us here at KFI, and it was a
scene like nothing I have ever witnessed, you know, especially
because you know these communities and we know people impacted
by this, so it just hit so strong. But I
(04:00):
remember thinking, both in Altadena and in Palisades, people should
see this. You know, there's a lot that could be
gained from seeing it. One you truly understand the horror
that your neighbors experienced, you might better understand the threat
of a wildfire right if it were to come to
your neighborhood exactly, so like when you get the warnings
to run, do you know have your affairs in order
(04:24):
be prepared if you live in a fire zone. But
at the same time, now that these communities are in
that period of finally putting it back together, literally putting
it back together. There's been concerns that there are tour
buses making their way through Palisades, commercial tour buses. Not
just lookie loose, who might swing over there on our
way back home and just take a look.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
These are people who are making some money off of this.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
So my question would be, simply, rather than ban it
right and drive it underground, why doesn't the city charge
a premium on this? You guys want to go check
it out, that's totally fine, but we're going to charge
you four times what you think.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
You should pay.
Speaker 7 (05:02):
That was exactly my thought back in January and in
February when it was still smoldering and you could take
it in, and I was thinking, people need to see this.
How can you do it in a tasteful way, How
can you do it in a productive way? Is there
a way to ten twenty bucks in the till and
that money goes towards some community effort to fix things?
Because I know people want to see it, And if
you live in San Bernardino County, you watch this on
(05:24):
the news, you want to come in and take a look.
That's totally natural. It's not necessarily bloodlust. You should feel
what happened in this region, but is there a way
to do it tastefully that That's not the approach that's
been taken by the city. The city council has put
a restriction on these buses. They're not going to allow
them to come through as long as there remains an
emergency declaration related to the wildfires that is still in effect.
(05:47):
Obviously there's still a lot of work to do there,
so no bus towards for now. They hope to make
that permanent, though.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
I again, I just feel like this is a yes
there if you live or let's let's assume that your
house was not one of those that burned down still damaged.
I think every home there was probably damaged to some
degree and you hadn't been able to move back. Now
you're allowed to go back into your home into what
amounts to a devastated neighborhood. The last thing you're going
(06:16):
to want to see is a bus full of people
popping out with the you know, the cameras and whatever,
taking pictures or even just slowing down in your neighborhood,
because that adds insult to injur I'd want to shoot them. Well,
that's all another reason why we go less lethal.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Right, that's right, right, that's right.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
That's why I have a burnout BYRNA dot com burner.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Michael, it's weird calling you Michael. I don't know.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
I like it.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Okay, what are you eating today?
Speaker 4 (06:45):
Wait a minute? Why I want to Why is it
weird to call him Michael?
Speaker 2 (06:49):
I don't because I usually call him Michael Monks.
Speaker 7 (06:51):
Oh, it's my full government name or just the casual
first name is okay as well.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
I feel like, what's your nickname?
Speaker 4 (06:59):
I ever had one?
Speaker 7 (07:00):
You know, when I was a kid, I tried to
make Mikey a thing and that didn't click and it
doesn't work anyway.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
Mikey Monks is annoying. However, my can I say.
Speaker 7 (07:10):
Biological father on the air, Yeah, you know without bringing
up the trauma of it.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
Well, we got a full a.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Lot of My biological father was a bartender who I
don't even know.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
See, I love that for you, because that's that fuels you.
It fuels me. Now.
Speaker 7 (07:25):
Look, I don't have like, I don't know this guy,
but I know that his name is Mickey, and I thought, God,
that is a great name. It's a great name.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
It's a great name.
Speaker 7 (07:34):
Mickey Mickey Monks doesn't work either because it's the two
syllable one syllable that it just is really is too
much Key there. Yeah, I like Mickey too, but well,
I'll just let you know his his last name is Bashem,
and I was like, if I had his name, if
my name were Mickey Basham, which again I don't like
saying this out loud because you know, I don't know
this guy, but Mickey Basham, Mickey Basham.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
Okay, if I knew it's a good boxing name. I
don't know what our name.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
This guy has wasted that name adult on the adult team.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
I think we're just trying to ignore it.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Oh yeah, was that weird?
Speaker 4 (08:12):
It was a little weird. But Mickey Basham has wasted
that name.
Speaker 7 (08:17):
You know what a trailer in Lovin Injunction, Kentucky, and
I'm here in Hollywood without that name.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
It reminds me of that little kid.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Mikey likes it.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Yeah, exactly, I like Mickey. Mickey sounds like you live
in the underworld.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
I know, and I kind of do. I live in
downtown Los Angeles, exactly.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Are you what are you eating today?
Speaker 7 (10:21):
Okay, so I have a regardless of the holiday, I'm
not We're not doing anything special, mostly just dodging the
fireworks that blow up in skid Row nightly anyway, but
particularly today, I've got a Friday tradition and I usually
enjoy a frape on the roof a Friday. It's Friday Friday,
(10:41):
we have. But there's a You're not gonna believe this,
but there are like eleven Starbucks near me, so I
know it's crazy, but yeah, there's a lot.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Oh so you know you don't do the Friday frat
pee on the roof of this building.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
No, on my building?
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Oh you're what kind of frat pey.
Speaker 7 (10:55):
Do you get I like a caramel. I'll also do
if there's a not novelty one. If there's a novelty
one that they've got seasonally, I will try it. Yeah,
but I always go back to that caramel.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
I've been flying fast and loose, at loose at coffee places,
trying new things.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
You got it.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
I had a black tie the other day.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
Oh what's that?
Speaker 1 (11:16):
I don't know, but I had it and was delicious.
A lot of them have a ridiculous amount of sugar
involved that I didn't even know about.
Speaker 7 (11:24):
You know, it needs to be something that you treat
like a milkshake. It's not like you're having a cold coffee.
It is a not a health food.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
It's not no wow, a black tie, layered sweetened condensed milk,
cold brew iced coffee, chickory infused simple syrup, and then
a float of half and half on top.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
It was dessert and a cup at seven am.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
Yeah, that's too early for that.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Straight to the diabetes.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Absolutely.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Now what about ice cream? Is there ice cream involved today?
Speaker 9 (11:57):
You know?
Speaker 7 (11:57):
Let me tell you this because I know you think
that I'm all over the place, but this isn't just
going to be an ice cream shop that we're working
on in the Beta face. Still it's a confectionery and
my my spouse, by my request, didn't know if he
could do it, but he did it. He made a
delicious batch of Divinity.
Speaker 8 (12:19):
What is that?
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Have you ever had Divinity candy? So no, we're going
to bring some in very soon.
Speaker 7 (12:24):
It's it's something my grandmother liked, so I tend to
associate it with old ladies.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
But we bought some. You know, I went to Carmel recently.
Speaker 7 (12:33):
I had the shirt that says Carmel on it and
figured that, yeah, yeah, because I went to Carmel and
I picked up the shirt. But what I also picked
up was this is this candy store on the main
drag there, and they had Divinity for sale and we
bought two pieces because he had never had it. And
the two pieces cost us thirteen dollars and you know,
they're they're you know, it's a it's a hearty piece,
(12:54):
but it's not you know, it's not thirteen dollars. But
I was telling him, I was like, this is what
I mean, dude, people kind of money for gandy and
ice cream.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
Learn how to make divinity. We're gonna learn to learn
how to make top.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
A merangue cookie.
Speaker 7 (13:06):
It's if you have a better definition pulled up over there, Gary,
I don't.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
That's exactly what I was going to say.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I've had these before.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
This used to be my favorite cookie from like a
bakery that was near my elementary school. But I thought
it was like a merangue cookie. But it looks exactly like.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
What that was.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Yeah, and it's it's it's a lot of sugar. It's
it's good. Got sort of a.
Speaker 7 (13:30):
Chalk, a soft chalk feeling, not taste, not taste.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
But texture.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
It's like hollow inside.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
No, it's not hollow, it's dense and uh.
Speaker 7 (13:40):
And you know you can put a nut on it
on top, like a like a pecan, oh, and.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
Or an almonds.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Did you make these?
Speaker 7 (13:49):
He made them and it was perfect. It was exactly
what I'd asked him to do. So, like this whole thing,
when you're not even ready, he does everything I tell him.
It's so good everything, sugar, corn, syrup, egg whites. And
the challenge and the why I had to let him
do it because I'm unsurprisingly not very very talented in
(14:11):
the kitchen. This involves a very precise temperature when one
of the steps takes place.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
I did see a recipe that had a candy thermometer exactly.
Speaker 7 (14:23):
The candy thermometer is involved, and you have to hit
like one hundred and seventy or some odd degree at
a precise point, and then you have to do something
with it. And I was like, I'm out, I'm out.
I can't try this on my Like I can make
the ice cream on my own, but that I can't.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Is the is the thermometer that he's using the old
fashioned mercury thermometer or is it an electronic one?
Speaker 7 (14:46):
It came off of our espresso machine. Ah, yeah, Oh yes,
it's an electronic. Yeah, it's a good one. Okay, So
you can set the alarm for when it hits that thing.
You're not looking at it. You you can wait, you
can do something else. The alarm goes off, and then
you do whatever the next step would be exactly.
Speaker 9 (15:02):
You know.
Speaker 7 (15:02):
There it was several steps, but email it first, try
so it's on and now we're gonna try toffee next.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
I'm in.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:11):
Yeah, now the whole thing is gonna get you.
Speaker 7 (15:12):
Guys aren't even ready when I open this business on
whatever the main street in Ventura is because that's what
I'm feeling now.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
I think it's going to Ventura. That's where Michael Monks
wants to to settle down, raise a family and live
and open up his confectionery.
Speaker 9 (15:29):
Yeah. I don't know why.
Speaker 7 (15:29):
It just so, you know, I looked at it and
I thought, Ventura looks kind of like it's got a
nice but.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
It's such a fun time. It's a great place to
raise a family. I love this for you.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Climate wise, it's good for confections.
Speaker 7 (15:41):
Yeah, I don't know what's the candy scene like in Ventura.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Is there some serious read You're gonna have to deal
with some saltwater taffy mafia?
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Probably.
Speaker 7 (15:52):
I don't think we're gonna offer it. We're not going
to offer saltwater. No, No, We're going to offer saltwater divinity.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
What are confections? What are confections? Gotcha?
Speaker 3 (16:05):
Oh jeez, I'm sorry. I don't know what I mean.
I don't even know what the hiring process is.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
He has a master's degree.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Well, you know, so weird confections is kind of an
old timey term.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Guys.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
I don't live an old timey I live a present time.
That's an excellent elmer doesn't live an old timy. Yeah,
I guess that's true. But I like the term confectionery,
and I think it's going to be in the name.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
You're also going to open up a harbor dasherie?
Speaker 9 (16:36):
Is that right?
Speaker 7 (16:36):
I had, you know, back in Kentucky. I I thought
if I didn't, if I left the media and I
was going to be entrepreneurial and somewhere else, it was
going to be clothing related, And absolutely that word would
have been in the title.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
You do I know you?
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Or do I know you?
Speaker 9 (16:48):
You know?
Speaker 7 (16:48):
It's because I'm sitting in I've absorbed your essence and
somehow you've absorbed mine.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
Find a different term, because that's good.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
I like your essence.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
Stop it.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I like it when you call me mickey.
Speaker 8 (17:01):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
On the fourth of July with everybody else who's also
working or maybe not.
Speaker 9 (17:13):
Hey, Gary and Shannon, y'all getting paid time and a
half for this, right?
Speaker 4 (17:18):
Oh yeah, nope, yeah, time and a half meetings, Gary
and Shannon, Yes, screaking.
Speaker 10 (17:22):
Today we celebrate something that our ancestors fought and died for.
Not barbecues and parades, not watermelon, fireworks or swimming pools,
but something that sets our country apart from every other.
Speaker 9 (17:39):
In the world.
Speaker 10 (17:41):
Freedom.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
You got it every Birthday, America. Thank you's.
Speaker 11 (17:46):
Oh guys, I was wondering why I woke up this morning,
and now I know that it's to hear Gary say
that he would use his Green Valley Ranch rewards card.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Cook I go too.
Speaker 11 (18:01):
Oh, I live in Henderson and it's right down the
street from my house, and oh my gosh, that made
my day.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
Thank you guys for working today. I appreciate you. God
bless America. Thank you for that visual. You watching me
do cocaine.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Watching you cut up cocaine with your Green Valley Ranch
from Henderson card with the intent to do it is
all the visual I need, even if I didn't actually
do it right, just a preparation.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
Okay, there's again again.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Kids, You can't drug cocaine anymore.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
Don't do it.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
They put the stuff in it these days. It kills
you that that the ship has sailed.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
There's no more cocaine fun time, so you only die
from drugs these days.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
I wanted to point out where did it go oh,
Angels beat the Braves yesterday five to one.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
They're actually in Toronto. How very Unamerican of them.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
On the four July tonight, Dodgers swept the White Sox
with a six two win yesterday, So the Astros are
in town. They hated Astros coming in at seven tonight.
In fact, you can listen to all Hold on a.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Second, is there a mess up?
Speaker 8 (19:15):
Did I?
Speaker 9 (19:15):
No?
Speaker 3 (19:16):
I think I messed up because I do believe the game.
I said seven. I think it's an hour early. It's
at six. I think it is at six tonight. Anyway,
that game.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Tonight, what a glaring error.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
You can listen to all the Dodgers games at whatever
time they start on AM five to seventy LA Sports
Live from the Gallvin Motors Broadcast Booth and stream all
the Dodgers games n HD. On that IHEARTRADIOPP used the
keyword AM five to seventy LA Sports.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Yeah. My brother last night, he was or yesterday.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
He was talking about how he he said, yeah, I
walked into the house, Butler, I told the kids, baseball
season is over. It's time to start thinking about football,
because you know, the Giants have taken such a crap. Ever,
since they brought over the Bad Boy.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
Right, yeah, Raphael Devers.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
And then last night we're driving in the car to
the fair home for the ferry goes on.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
It's five to two. I go, I thought that we
thought baseball season was over. Poor Giants fans.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
Uh, well, we can hope for something at some point
in the season.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Maybe enjoy the sunshine. Yeah, enjoy the crab sandwiches.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
That sounds awful. Heather Brooker has joined us.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
We talk entertainment with Heather, and since she pulled the
overnight shift, basically this morning, we're going to do it
to right now instead of later on in the show.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
What's going on?
Speaker 12 (20:36):
Well, first of all, I'm sorry, I look like I
rolled out of a trash bag this morning. I didn't
think anyone was going to be here in person. I
thought everyone's gonna be working from home today.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Gary, I'm looking at just trash in that room, So
you're fine.
Speaker 12 (20:47):
So I literally look like I just rolled out and
put on whatever was nearby, and I did. This is
a big weekend that the movies. Fourth of July is
typically known as, like, you know, the big releases, and
Universal is uh, well, they're bringing back their Jurassic World franchise.
They're hoping to kind of restart it and reboot it,
rekick it off with Jurassic World Dominion stars Scarlett Johanson
(21:12):
and Mahershela Ali Jonathan Bailey from Wicked, And you know what,
I was in full clinch mode the entire time, like
full body clinch.
Speaker 4 (21:22):
This was I thought, really suspenseful.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
The wait, hold on a second, the dinosaurs get out
and they might kill people.
Speaker 12 (21:30):
They don't get out, they're already out. Oh no, oh no,
they go to the island.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
Where Why would they do that?
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Because the story demands it.
Speaker 12 (21:40):
Gary Okay, the whole like first like forty five minutes
of the movie is basically like Jurassic Jaws. It's like
Jurassic World in the ocean, and it is terrifying. That part,
for me, was really scary. There's a lot of jump
scares throughout the movie. If you're a fan of dinosaurs,
if you love to see dinosaurs in the big screen,
this is a good movie. It's you know, people are
(22:02):
glad that it's back. However, there's a lot of critics.
You know, people gotta complain. They like they don't think
that the story is as fleshed out. A lot of
people think Scarlet Johansson is just kind of, you know,
giving mid for this performance.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
And I liked it.
Speaker 12 (22:17):
I thought it was a fun movie. I thought, again,
it's one of those blockbuster movies. It's dinosaurs on the
big screen, the world that they've flushed out here they've
kind of gone back to the island where this picks
up a few years after. Oh, I think I said,
did I say Rebirth or Dominion? I meant to say,
this is Jurassic World.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
Rebirth. Dominion was the last one.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Oh okay, so this comes is not the one where
the dinosaurs get out.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
Yes, that's the same one.
Speaker 12 (22:41):
Oh, they start killing people, So now they're going back
to the island. This takes place a few years after Dominion,
and it's fun. It's a you know, get yourself again
some popcorn. Enjoy the dinosaurs on the big screen. It's
beautifully shod.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
But why are people.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Hating on a movie that we know we're gonna get
the dinosaurs are gonna get out, it's gonna be scary.
Enjoy the cgi what more do you want?
Speaker 12 (23:06):
I think it's because they're like, oh, the story wasn't
you know, great and you know, because there's a family
for some reason, there's a dad with his two young
daughters sailing by the island with the deadly dinosaurs right
at the same time.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Is the story ever great?
Speaker 1 (23:20):
I mean, and that woman was wearing the heels and
the skirt and it's like, why are you wearing heels?
Speaker 2 (23:25):
It was a whole thing.
Speaker 12 (23:26):
It was so crazy making why Bryce Ellis Howard was
wearing heels in that home movie. But this one feels
like more I feel like the original Jurassic Park. It's
in like this tropical setting. There's jump scares, there are
people being eaten. It's just it's fun to see the
dinosaurs back on the big screen. You know what you're
gonna get. It's the same I would say, it's the
(23:47):
same playbook maybe of the Transformers movies.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Yes, like we know what, there's robots and they turn
into things that you didn't expect them to do, and
then they're going to turn into robots again.
Speaker 4 (23:58):
Exactly.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
It's that, But they're something. To Shannon's point, it's a
known quantity. And as much as we complain about lack
of creativity or too many sequels or whatever, there's a
reason why why the production companies make them, and it's
because they will rake in the money.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
I mean, it's.
Speaker 12 (24:16):
Already made one hundred and twenty seven million dollars in
pre sales, and it's expected to make you know, quite
a bit more over the coming weeks. But it's got
some big competition coming up next weekend with Superman weighing out.
Speaker 4 (24:28):
Couldn't you stick around for another segment?
Speaker 2 (24:29):
I can two. I mean, she's only been here since
two in the morning. Right, that's another hurt. I haven't.
Speaker 12 (24:36):
I'm staying anyway to help Michael with someone later, So
I'm gonna be here for a while.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
So are you gonna are you gonna make divinity with him?
Speaker 9 (24:41):
No?
Speaker 4 (24:43):
That does sound dirty. Sorry, we'll edit that out. Don't worry.
Speaker 8 (24:48):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
We get to the top of the hour, we'll talk
just about the President's signing ceremony today, some other stuff
going on in DC.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Oh, also, how UFC is going to make its way
to the White House lawn.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
Oh, yeah, that would be pretty amazing.
Speaker 13 (25:09):
Shannon's Bill m Lorraine calling from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. God bless America. Yes, God,
bless you two for working today. Have a great day
and happy fourth of July.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
Oh that's very nice. All the way from Harrisburg, PA.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
What a great place right home river there you got
the National Civil War Museum.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
I just found a the Harrisburg Nationals. I think one
of the minor league affiliates for the Washington Nationals plays
in a stadium or play in a stadium that exists
on an island like out in the river.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Hm, that's the end of my story. How about you guys.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Sorry the Susquehanna Oh.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
Here is sports Sports sports Heather.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
So I was thinking, I mean, is there a better
movie for the big screen than Jurassic World?
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Drastic any Jurassic vehicle?
Speaker 4 (26:11):
Really?
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Who wants to watch dinosaurs on their home screen when
you can go to the theater. This is what theaters
were made for, dinosaurs exactly.
Speaker 12 (26:19):
And this movie truly expands on the world of where
the dinosaurs live. We see different types of dinosaurs in
this movie. They are larger than life. I don't know,
they're like the weird thing kind of. I feel like
they made up names. They are like hybrids because they
were doing scientific experiments and then the lab had to
be shut down spoilers because there was an accident.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
If you have one, you kind.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Of what's your favorite dinosaur? Favorite dinosaursaurus?
Speaker 12 (26:48):
Probably the Brontosaurus because it's so gentle, tall and elegant.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
It's a vegetarian. Yeah, I know, I'm not gonna be
eaten if we hang out.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
That's like all I rom remember about that dinosaurs. It's
a vegetarian. I guess it's the first vegetarian dinosaur we
learn about in school.
Speaker 12 (27:06):
I would say most people really like the what the moment,
the little tiny.
Speaker 4 (27:11):
The Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Speaker 12 (27:12):
You guys, I interviewed Chris Pratt and Bryce Alice Howard
for the Last Jurassic Movie, and I am such a dork.
I was sitting there with them and I go, I
just have to tell you, guys, this movie is dino.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Might go wow, I.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
You know what we just ran out of tun Yeah,
you know what we're fresh out.
Speaker 12 (27:34):
God, if you don't want me to cover your intament anymore,
I promise I won't.
Speaker 4 (27:38):
I won't make any REREQUI why did you do that?
But here's the deal.
Speaker 3 (27:41):
They all just excuse yourself at that point and just
say I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
I have to go.
Speaker 14 (27:45):
They both go, ah, we see what you did there.
I'm so uncomfortable, Mom, Do you do you have secondhand
embarrassment for me?
Speaker 4 (27:55):
Totally? I come afraid to look at your actually.
Speaker 12 (28:00):
Like ten shades of red right now because I'm like,
I can't believe I told that story publicly, but then
I posted it on my social media like I was
clearly proud of that moment.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
I couldn't confirm if she has read. So what else?
Speaker 9 (28:12):
I mean?
Speaker 3 (28:13):
We talked about Superman the coming Out, and I'm going
to say it like that is I.
Speaker 12 (28:18):
Have seen it, but I am under like an embargo
and I'm not allowed to even like.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Talk about it. You give me a hand signal I can. Okay,
but it is and I just did so.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
Shannon, I know what it was. I can feel it.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
You could feel it. I will say.
Speaker 12 (28:34):
I got to meet some of the cast and the crew,
not the crew, just the cast, and sorry is not
good enough for you, okay.
Speaker 4 (28:43):
I don't know why you remember of the I her
name is.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Heaven, Bro's not so dynamite.
Speaker 12 (28:52):
I met the cast, had a great time with them,
talking with them. Even got a little something special coming
up next week for Gary and Shannon. I'm excited to
share that, but I can't say anything about the movie
in terms of like reviewing it or whatever until next week.
But I will be spilling all of the tea about it,
and I think I think fans will be happy.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
I think I can say that.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
And Superman is another one of those stories that's been
told multiple times, so I'm curious to see what this is.
Speaker 12 (29:22):
Very much James Gun's take on it. Yeah, and yeah,
I think fans will be happy with it, but I
will You're not going to be here next week, are you.
I'll be here in spirit, okay, darn it. And then Odyssey.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
I saw a lot of a lot of interesting headlines
about this that there is a trailer out there for this.
Speaker 12 (29:43):
Yes, so apparently they released a trailer the first kind
of look that we're getting at Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey,
and they started showing it before Jurassic World movies this
week the Jurassic World rebirth, and fans were kind of
I think they're mostly there's some people who are kind
of upset because John barenthal is speaking with an American
(30:05):
accent in his regular accent in the film, and people
are like, hold on a second. This took place twenty nine,
almost three thousand years before the founding of America.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
Why doesn't he have some sort of accent?
Speaker 12 (30:17):
But it's like, if that's your only beef with it, Like,
come on, if it's going to be a great.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Movie, that's like somebody taking issue with was it Kevin
Costner and Robin Hood thirty years ago?
Speaker 4 (30:28):
Everybody had an accent but him? Right right?
Speaker 12 (30:32):
I feel like though a lot of this is, you know,
you talk about sometimes citizen journalist, like the people on
social media who are trying to be news create you know,
news coverage or news anchors, whatever. The same thing is
happening with movie critics. They're like citizen critics. Basically, it's
guys and some gals living in their mom's basement who
have decided to start talking about movies and stuff on
(30:56):
the Internet and on TikTok and whatnot. And they're getting
so much credibility that they're being invited two press junkets
and two red carpets to interview actual celebrities and casts
and stuff like that. And that makes me a little crazy.
I'm not gonna lie, but that's yes.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
But in a general conversation, that's happened with political journalism,
it's happened with sports journalism. Yes, I mean it's all
these different aspects.
Speaker 12 (31:19):
What point do we stop trusting people's opinion, Because here's
the deal. They're not going to tell you what they
really think about the movie in the way that like
a seasoned journalist, someone who has training really would, because
they don't want to be uninvited to the next big event.
They don't want to be off Disney's list, they don't
want to be off Universal's lists. So they're not ever
going to give you like a true reaction.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
You know.
Speaker 12 (31:43):
They may say something for clicks and likes, you know,
but I don't know, as somebody who enjoys movies and
covers it a lot. That makes me a little crazy.
The Citizen critics.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
The Odyssey Star. Listen to this cast list. You have
Matt Damon obviously, as as Odysseus, Tom Holland and Hathaway,
Zendaia Lupita and Yongo, Robert Pattinson, Charlie's Thereon, John Burnthall,
John Leguizamo, Elliott Page, Mia goth This is a that's
(32:13):
an incredible list.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Yeah, Elliott Page, isn't it?
Speaker 9 (32:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (32:18):
Yeah, it's going to be.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
Has he been anything recently, like since all of the changes, Yes,
I mean yeah, but like not recently, right.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
Nothing, that's nothing that has been released widespread.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
I'll tell you that the Umbrella Academy on Netflix.
Speaker 4 (32:35):
Yeah, I think which one, Umbrella Academy.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right, that's what it was.
That's what I'm that's like the most recent one that.
Speaker 4 (32:42):
Was a good show. It's gonna this is gonna be
a great movie. I mean it doesn't.
Speaker 12 (32:46):
We're already talking about and the buzz is already happening
and it doesn't even come out for another like year
year or so next July.
Speaker 4 (32:53):
So that's gonna be a good one.
Speaker 12 (32:54):
One other movie, you guys, you know, may not be
on your radar for right now for this weekend, but
it should be Sovereign with Nick Offerman from Parks and
rec This is a great dramatic role for him. It
is a very interesting and unique movie. It's more of
an indie film. It stars also Dennis Quaid and Jacob Tremblay,
(33:15):
and he plays like an anti government extremist and it's
a really they're talking towards bait already for Nick Offerman
for this. He's had a lot of great dramatic turns
recently and this is a wonderful movie for him to
be in.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
And then Heads of State on Amazon Prime. I keep
saying that is good.
Speaker 12 (33:34):
It is so funny and so ridiculous if you if
you think about it, like it's a John Cena is
playing like a Trump like character, Indricelba is playing like
a British prime minister type character, and they they have
to partner up together whacking his ensues. It's just a fun,
silly comedy and I think it's definitely worth watching this
(33:55):
weekend for sure.
Speaker 4 (33:57):
Okay, thank you, Thanks you guys. It's fun.
Speaker 7 (34:00):
Thank you.
