Speaker 4 (02:47):
There would be very severe consequences.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Yes, yeah, there will be severe consequences. The question that
President Trump was answering there was if Vladimir Putin does
not agree to end the war, what will happen?
Speaker 2 (03:00):
And his response, again, there will be very severe. Concept.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
There will be very severe consequences.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Yes, he did not elaborate on what those would be. No, Now, a.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Couple of things.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
One of the consequences options available is more sanctions. This
is an interesting This is an interesting look at that
Vladimir Putin. Vladimir Putin has been saying that the American
sanctions against Russia have not really been that effective, that
it really doesn't hurt them. Vladimir Zelenski over Ladimir Zolinski,
(03:35):
President of Ukraine, has said Putin is completely bluffing.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
This is Zelenski through a translate.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
Putin is bluffing. He's trying to push before the Alaska
meeting on all directions of front line. Russia wants to
occupy the whole Ukraine.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
This is his wish.
Speaker 6 (03:54):
Putin is bluffing that sanctions is nothing and they don't work.
In fact, sanctions hitting Russian Who met.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
The translator for Zelenski, Wow, he is breathless excited.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
What very?
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I mean, he's very He's serving a very important role
right now. I mean, where do you think he came
from in the translation world? Was he calling a cricket match,
you know, eighteen months ago? And now he finds himself
at the center of geopolitical warfare and he's just he's
just he's.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Beside himself one of the most important translators. Yeah, in
the world today.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Right, Yeah, that's a lot of pressure.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Yeah, it's a single a pitcher who got called up
for a spot start.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
He needs a Larrazapam.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
President Trump also said today that one of the one
of the potential outcomes of this meeting on Friday in
Alaska with Vladimir Putin is a quick second meeting. He
the White House of kind of tempered expectations about what
was supposed to happen on Friday. Even though President Trump
haduggested that Vladimir Zolynski be ready to sign a deal
(05:04):
depending on how it goes on Friday, yesterday, they basically
pulled that back a little bit and just said, this
is more of a listening tour, if you will, of
the joint base there and Anchorage, Alaska, where they're going
to be meeting.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
We'll have a quick second one.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
I would like to do it almost immediately, and we'll
have a quick second meeting between President Putin and President
Zelenski and myself if they'd like to have me there.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
You can't have a piece deal without having Zelensky at
the table. And everybody appears to know that. We'll see
exactly how it goes. But again, this is Caroline Levitt
talking about the expectations for Friday's meeting from the White House.
Speaker 7 (05:44):
The President of the United States getting in the room
with the President of Russia, sitting face to face rather
than speaking over the telephone. We'll give this president the
best indication of how to end this war and where
this is headed.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Ahead of that all today, Zelenski met with leaders of Europe.
President Trump got onto that call as well and basically
said about that call this morning, I would rate it
a ten, very very friendly. Repeated his claim that the
war would not have happened if he had been in office,
and he said, this isn't my war.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
It is what it is. I'm here to fix it.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
The German Chancellor was the one who kind of organized
this entire phone call, zoom, meeting, news conference, whatever it was,
said that the meeting itself was constructive and that they
were all very much in agreement. He said that European
leaders insist on their conditions for any negotiation with Putin,
including that Ukraine must be at the table and that
a ceasefire must be the starting point of any negotiations
(06:45):
before they get into the potential for land swap, if
that's the way they're going to go, or have a
ghost Have you.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Read anything about these Kennedy Center mess I saw.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Some of it because that's where he was when he
was answering these questions.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Okay, Sump in his first term had kind of made
fun of the Kennedy Center Honors ceremony. He skipped the
ceremony repeatedly. Some honor artists had pledged to boycott if
Trump attended. Apparently Susie Wiles convinced Trump to host the
honors this year, and he said at the Kennedy Center,
(07:23):
I said, I'm President of the United States.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Are you fools asking me to do that?
Speaker 1 (07:29):
So he today announced this year's Kennedy Center Honorees that
he would host this year's annual event where George Strait,
Michael Crawford, Sylvester Stallone, Gloria Gaynor, and Kiss will all
be awarded. Yeah, very unusual public role for the president
to host the Kennedy Honors event.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
The Kennedy Center Honors. He's now the head of the board.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Fired multiple members of the board. It is an art
institution ps and yes installed himself as chair.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
He said, I would say I'm about ninety eight percent involved.
They all went through me. I turned down plenty.
Speaker 4 (08:09):
I would say I was about ninety eight percent in
a row. No, they all went through me. They came
over Rick and Sergio and everybody. They said, I turned
down plenty, I went to wook I turned I had
a couple.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Of Wochsters, lokesters. Oh boy, all right, wait a minute.
You got to hear him introduced Oh okay, this one.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Kiss became a global phenomenon, sold more than one hundred
million records worldwide and produced thirty gold albums and lots
of other things they produced. They made a fortune, and
they're great people and they deserve it.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
He couldn't he could not stop talking about Sylvester Stallone too,
because I guess they have a relationship, the relationship, but
talked about how he wrote Rocky and was auditioning all
these other actors to play Rocky, and then finally someone
was like, why don't you play Rocky? And he's like,
there were a lot of fat guys that couldn't box,
and then boxers who were too fat, and then people
(09:13):
couldn't do anything, and finally Sylvester Stellowe was like, I
guess I.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Could do it. It was, oh my god.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
Any any news conference now with this guy is is entertaining.
Regardless of the topic, It's going to go all over
the place.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
And it did you know It's interesting.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
It's like you have a affinity for somebody who's aging
and starts saying ridiculous things out loud when they're part
of your world, Like if it's your grandfather who's saying
like mildly racist things or whatever, like you know, just insensitive, insensitive,
and you're just like, oh my god, and you're just
(09:53):
kind of like it's kind of a kind of gentler
thing as opposed to like some guy you see like
on the street. I just think that probably politics, it's
the same way, Like Democrats hear that and they're.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Just like, oh my god, he's all insane.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
And then people that love Trump are like, oh, Grandpa,
like he's great, he loves Rocky.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
We all love Rocky, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
But if Joe Biden had said those same things, right, yeah,
it would.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Be like, oh my god, in the world, uh huh. Well,
use the example of Monday.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
I guess it was when he was holding a news
conference and he said he's going to meet He's going
to Russia to meet Putin later in the week.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
He said it twice. We all know he's going to Alaska.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
He may feel like he's going to Russia because it
takes a while to get there, but I mean people.
There were a couple of articles that were written that
were basically like, if Joe Biden had said that it
would spend we'd spend thirty days talking about.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
His exactly and Russia. Alaska. It's very cold. It's very cold.
I have a special jacket. A lot of people wear
bigger jackets. I didn't take the bigger jacket. I can
handle the cold. Bigger jackets look bulky on me. Gary
and Shannon will continue.
Speaker 8 (10:58):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
We've seen people's lives change. People who have struggled with
weight their entire lives that we've known them. People who
have not lived a day where they're not thinking about
their weight in some way.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Well, something will be better. A diet.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
It's an obsession. There's something that you don't like about yourself.
It becomes an obsession. And you can try diets, you
can try exercise, you can try a combination, you can
try all the latest fads and all the things, but
one problem remains, and it's still you're overweight. And whether
it's a genetic thing or it's or not it's a problem,
(11:43):
and it's been a big problem, and it's a it
affects all areas of your life. And then the golp
ones came out, and what a game changer for so
many people who were able to get a head start
on living healthier.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
That's tart. I know where you're going with us.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
I didn't mean that on purpose, just like a kickstart
is what I guess I meant, like a kickstart on
losing weight. Suddenly you can take a drug where your
cravings are minimized, You're not wanting to snack, you're not
having to eat all the time, your appetite is smaller.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
And I've seen the.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Proof all over of people that have lost tons of
weight that are living They're younger, they seem younger, they're
having more fun, they're excited about buying clothes, all the things.
Baldness is right up there in terms of an obsession.
And you know, I've got friends, at least one of
my girlfriends that I've had forever, and weight has been
(12:46):
a struggle for her her whole life. And you know,
doesn't matter how many times you're like, you're beautiful, you
look great. You know, it doesn't matter because in their eyes.
They've got weight to lose. Same thing for guys who
have balding. I think for a lot of people it's
not a big deal. It's it's not you know, Oh
(13:06):
he's bald. It's not a big deal. I don't think.
But yet, if it's happening to you, you think it's
the biggest deal and you can do nothing about it.
A lot of people that struggle with weight think there's nothing.
They've tried everything, there's nothing I can do about it.
So this now is raising a lot of headlines and
they're calling it the ozempic for balding.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
The Academy American Academy Dermatology has been rocked by this
new drug PP four oh five, developed by a company
called Polite pelais Pelage Pharmaceuticals, and it works differently than
usual hair growth medications because, for example, in pattern bald baldness,
(13:53):
the hair follicles don't go away, They just shrink. They
start producing thinner hairs, and eventually they go dorm it
they stop using hair altogether. Things like monoxidil and finesteride
try to rescue those follicles before they reach that point.
In fact, finisteride increases blood flow. Sorry, that's monoxidal increases
blood flow, and then the finisteride blocks the conversion of testosterone.
(14:16):
But this Pp four five, the new drug, is more ambitious.
It tries to revive the follicles that have already shut
down by reprogramming the metabolism of the stem cells.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
I have a.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Science question.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Just taking this all in, is there any truth to
guys that are more likely to be bald having higher
rates of testosterone?
Speaker 2 (14:37):
I think so?
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Okay, So that's why the finesteride blocks the testosterone and
as successful in this regard, yes, Okay.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
In theory, it doesn't. The Pp four five doesn't just
slow hair loss. It would reactivate the parts of the
scalp that have already given up. And at this point
this is always the dangerous thing that this point, there
doesn't appear to be.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Any significant side of that.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
At this point, Robert de Niro is awake. Robin Williams
has awakened him. He's awake, he's talking, he's making jokes,
he's walking around. Interesting, it's past the tennis ball catching
phase and he's walking around. But you're not at the
point to where the side effects make Robert de Niro
go back into that chair.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
Well, and this is one of those things that comes
This is what makes it different than ozempic right, or
a GLP one is. And we've said this many times since,
you know, probably the first GLP one story we did
two or three years ago, we said, whatever makes you
lose weight, whether it's your own diet, whether it's medicine,
(15:42):
whether it's your your exercise, whatever makes you lose weight
is good because it's going to make your body work better,
work easier, more efficient. That's what losing weight does for
your body. This is a little bit strange because it's
it's a cosmetic thing. Now, I'm not saying cosmetics don't
(16:03):
play a huge part in how you feel about yourself,
and that that can play a big part in how
your body is, how you are physically, but there's no
other benefit to it other than cosmetic.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Untrue, because when you fix that thing that's bothering you cosmetically,
your outlook on life changes, Your whole face changes, your
whole behavior pattern changes, your life changes.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
And I allow for that.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
I'm saying, yes, I know that there are those types
of changes, but medically speaking.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
But medically speaking, you get out, you move around more
with your new head of hair, you interact with people more,
your mental health is better. I mean the changes like this,
when you have an obsession you take it away, the
changes are exponential.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
The drug probably won't actually be available on the open
market for a couple of years, assuming it goes through
all of the regulatory approval that's necessary. But that's one
of the reasons they do this is because, like I said,
at this point, it does not have any known side effects.
Those could come later, and that's the potential downside to
(17:13):
all of it.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
And that's why we take, for example, it coming from
a place of no. Let's come from a place of yes,
I don't know how to feel about hair loss.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Well, you don't have it, so you don't get to
have it.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
But my forehead, what do you mean you don't know
how to feel about it? Is larger than it was
in the past. That's not true. Yes it is.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Let me see it. I'm wearing a hat today for
a reason because you're staring at it. You're staring at
I don't see you're obsessed about it. I don't think
you have a bigger forehead than I do.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
I don't, but I could. I have a huge forehead.
You do not have a huge forehead. I do, but
I you know I'm over it. It's been there my
whole life, and now we live together. My forehead and I.
Did you ever have bangs for a too long? Too long?
Had bangs for I had bangs till I was about eighteen?
Speaker 2 (18:06):
I had bangs forever? Would you ever get it back
into that game? No? Why?
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Because it was all about me being insecure about my
big ass forehead? Oh they were awful. My hair is awful.
Why would I want more focus on it? I'd rather
have more focus on my massive ass forehead.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
I'm glad you said forehead. We all have our things. Wow,
you know what? It took you a beat that It
didn't take me a beat. I haven't done that in
a while. I just wanted to keep it fresh.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
You've been good with the ass shame around here, and
now you're back in the pig pen playing in the mud.
When are we going to get to our pig story.
We'll talk parenting, how Gary's parents could have done a
better job.
Speaker 2 (18:46):
Gary Channon will continue.
Speaker 8 (18:49):
You're listening to Gary and Channon on demand from KFI
AM six forty No.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
No, Yeah, Oh my gosh, have them all? She gave
them all to you? Was she got to go to
the dentist?
Speaker 3 (19:03):
I do I don't want Eminem's just crumbs floating around
your gun.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Well, I'm gonna brush my teeth and floss before I go.
I can't sure you are.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
I just almost started crunching M and m's on the radio.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
That's how you don't.
Speaker 5 (19:14):
I'm not in a good face. I should probably go
home and just hunk her down for a whole Ye.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
You don't go to the genis with a dirty mouth?
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Do you?
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Nobody does?
Speaker 5 (19:22):
Know?
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Nobody does? Okay, I just what do you mean?
Speaker 4 (19:26):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Because I was throwing away the line that you won't
actually do that.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, I think you will. I think you're very obsessive
with who goes with a dirty mouth?
Speaker 5 (19:34):
I mean nobody have I ever done it? Yes, I've
done it, like a few times.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
They're already going to tell you you have a dirty mouth.
You don't want to present it to them on a platter.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
See, this is ores for lunch, right, isn't it funny? Though? Like,
this is one of the things.
Speaker 5 (19:47):
I'm sorry, this is going to be a little gross,
but this is one of the things as a parent
that you don't know that you have to teach your kids,
but then you like it just gets sprung on you
there if to teach your kids like I've taught my
kids like oh, we got to go to the dentist.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
I'm like, did you brush your tee And they're like, no,
why they're going to do it for me exactly. I
was like, I explained, like, no, it's you go.
Speaker 5 (20:05):
You brush your teeth for the same reason that you
pre clean the house before the housekeeper comes on.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
These are that's our society that we do. You're lying
about your actual condition. You can't.
Speaker 5 (20:17):
You can't tell them you floss regularly if you did
before you got there.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
He should drive my dad insane.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
When my mom would get all worried about cleaning the
house for the molly Maids to come, I was like.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Gotta clean the whole house. He's like, what the hell
are you h.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
Weirdly enough, that's probably the one insane thing do that
I see is perfectly like I accept it as the insanity,
but I'm just going to embrace it.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
Yeah, you have to the rest of the stuff.
Speaker 5 (20:38):
That's insane about me, I do. I struggle with a lot,
like I just just just let it go.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Justin Warsham was joined us. We tut parenting. Justin smack
in the middle of the world of parenting right now.
Parents who have positive relationships with their partner have children
with stronger friendships.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Isn't that crazy?
Speaker 3 (20:58):
You could says, in positive relationships with their partner have
children with stronger everything. Yeah, stronger bonds, yes, stronger sense
of self yes, more confidence, yes.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
That's an outlook.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
Yeah, when you have a better attitude towards relationships.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Like when you have a couple.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
I think we all know at least one couple like
this where they're always manipulating each other, those kids end
up so after man.
Speaker 5 (21:24):
Yeah, And the thing I didn't like about the article
is that later on it says, so you.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Get these little kids that try to try their hand
at manipulation.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
And they're not smart enough. It's crazy.
Speaker 5 (21:34):
That was my younger son. He's pretty good at it,
but now he's gotten older. That's always been my fear
with him, because I've seen him manipulate my wife a lot,
like he could just turn her emotions like a radio dialog.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
And it works, oh every time, really every time.
Speaker 5 (21:48):
And he's I've even seen him do it to his
brother and I'm like, you guys and then I but
then I sit there and go I wouldn't know. They
don't know what's happening to them. So this could all
be a part of his master plan to manipulate me.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
He's making cute lovable. He's manipulating you. Absolutely.
Speaker 5 (22:02):
By the memory of when we went to the horse Dress.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
Five, he manipulated me and I let him.
Speaker 5 (22:07):
You see that photo came up on my phone with
the guy in the suit with the trumpet and Craig
is in the background trying to lean out of the photo.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Jack was like, Hey, I just lost another one hundred bucks.
Can I have another hundred anti Shannon, And I was like, absolutely,
you gave.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Him so much money for your birthday. Here's another vodka soda.
He loves a vodka soda. Now that's that's his come down.
Speaker 5 (22:27):
From the end of a long day.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
He's a freshman in high school. He needs it. He's stressed.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
He does he's stressed, he does whatever he needs, whatever
he wants.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
As long as mom and dad are fighting, he's gonna
be fine. He's coping with baka soda madly. And I
don't fight Harper. But what I do want to say
is that and I.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
Disagree with this, and I'm curious, see what you guys
think is that Later on it says, so, you know,
it's from Australian They have this long study of like
when they're babies all the way to now and this
is what they found as a trend in this ongoing study.
And they said, so we're working with parents on how
to work on like their conflict. And the way that
it was phrased was that they were trying to like
conceal their conflict.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
And I wholeheartedly disagree.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
That you shouldn't try to conceal a disagreement or a
conflict that you have with your spouse necessarily from your children.
I'm sure that there are circumstances where, yes, it makes
sense to do that, But I also think like people
who don't know that their parents ever fought, and then
they get into a relationship where it's natural to have
a disagreement and to maybe.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
Have a fight, they don't know how to deal with it.
Speaker 5 (23:25):
They feel and they feel like they're failing in their
own relationships.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
Yeah, my parents were very I can remember one time
my parents raising their voices at each other. I mean
they never they never spoke ill of each other. They
and one time that they ever raised their voices against
each other, I don't it was it was way above
(23:48):
my pay grade. Whatever they were talking about was they
didn't never have to explain it to me. I wouldn't
get it. But I do think that there that agreement.
Disagreements are important to witness on certain topics or stuff
that doesn't I mean, if you're if you're arguing about
the pool.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Tile, nobody eveing cares, it doesn't matter. It does not matter.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
And if that's what rises to the level of an
actual disagreement in your house, you're fine.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Everything is fine.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
I had open conversations about money all the time.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
That was not argument.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
I thought that was very healthy to grow up around,
is talking about money.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
Where are we at? What's too much money?
Speaker 5 (24:27):
What?
Speaker 2 (24:28):
I don't know if that's the cars, too much money?
Speaker 1 (24:30):
But you know, hearing those conversations made it normal that
you should always be concerned about money and where you're at,
and that's a healthy thing to have a dialogue about.
My husband grew up in a home where I believe
there was never any fighting between the between his parents,
and so nothing.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
We do not fight. He is not a fighter. He
will not fight. And you're like, there's no part of
you that well used to do I used to do
it a lot, are you now?
Speaker 1 (24:59):
I'm just like, all right, you know, there's no use
fighting with someone who's not going to fight back, So
then you just have to be irrational and have a conversation.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
Gross Creig the emotional passifist. I need to hang out
with him more. I wish I was good at that,
because I.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Say, you guys are very different. When I said that,
this is another example I remember.
Speaker 5 (25:20):
That I've already blocked it out because I guess it's
trauma to me.
Speaker 8 (25:23):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Oh, I know it's trauma.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
It's very clear that it's trauma.
Speaker 5 (25:30):
But my parents had fights, like but they're divorced. But
I don't remember my dad and mom fighting as much
as I remember my dad and stepmom because they got
together when I was like seven. So I felt like
I learned a lot about that kind of stuff. And
to the money thing, like my wife's parents, they fought
constantly about money, to the point where it's like my
wife doesn't even want to know what's going on with
(25:51):
the money, which kind of leaves me alone to kind
of manage it all.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
I'm fine with it, like it doesn't bother me, but
it is.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
It is a It's a tough thing like to kind
to deal with because every once in a while I
get resentful about it.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
Yeah, but I wonder if there's something to having those
other deeper discussions or disagreements. I'm thinking of it like
in a therapy kind of session where the kids are
witnessing you and your wife or me and my wife
or whatever, figuring out relationship differences, because that, I think
(26:25):
is what you're talking about. You want your kids to
have some amount of skill when it comes to navigating
that kind of thing. But they're not going to understand
if you've been married for twenty four years, they're not
going to understand the issues that you're dealing with.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
True. I mean, I'm at an advanced level of marriage.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
I think they may get the idea of you care
enough that you're sitting down and talking with your wife
about why she's constantly doing that thing. Yeah, it's more
probably the other way around. She's saying it to you,
but at least there's an acknowledgment. They may not understand
all of the issues that are involved, but they understand
that you're willing to work on that.
Speaker 5 (27:02):
I'll just make this real quick. It just reminds me
of we recently had. I had a breakthrough in my
role with my family. My wife found this funny video
of a wife like tiptoeing over tools in a garage
and she wasn't but in the background you hear she
goes me going to visit my husband while he's working
in the garage because it relaxes him.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
And he's just.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
Him cursing like a cartoon character. You yeah, And they're
laughing hysterically. And one of my kids was like, Natalie goes,
doesn't that sound like your dad?
Speaker 2 (27:29):
I go, wait, what, Like, I'm haha, what this is
about me?
Speaker 9 (27:36):
So they go and then everybody jumps in and they're
all like, oh remember the time that you did that.
I go, oh, my gosh, like and I sincerely, I
laughed and I said, I'm very sorry your father is
an ale.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
That's not true. Well, it is a little bit event.
You gotta have venting time.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
Yeah, but I also but don't you think it's good
for me to also acknowledge that this is it's not.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
That's not who I want to be.
Speaker 5 (27:56):
I don't want to be a guy with the short
fuse just because I have a lot going on, especially
like that's what they kept saying, like you got a
lot going on right now, Dad, And I'm like, I
don't know if that that's an excuse to be I
don't think I'm full blown abusive, but unkind to my family,
you know.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
Like ye, but again, you say this all the time,
if you're aware of it, yes, not a press.
Speaker 5 (28:14):
And that's all I'm saying is I want to be
aware of it in front of them, and I want
to apologize for it and acknowledge it and work on it.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
A short fuse isn't necessarily an a hole. I mean
it's there's this is a time in your life where
you have a lot going on. It doesn't mean you
have a short fuse as a personality trait is this
right now?
Speaker 2 (28:30):
A little of short fusey.
Speaker 5 (28:31):
I know, we gotta go fusey. So I look at Shannon,
I'm like, wow, thank you. And then I look at
Gary and this work on his face is like I'm
getting rapid dope to you. He's gonna come with your
face is now making me feel very reassured. So come
back after the break and see if I'm crying.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Everybody. Gary and Shannon will continue.
Speaker 8 (28:49):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Maybe it was a cast reunion, shann Oh, it's not
ready for it, Elm. We're blow out the breaks. We
gotta we got a breaking story, not ready for public consumption. No,
it's happening. We're breaking it right here. We're blown out spots.
Get right here? What are our spots? I want to
know about this adult theater production. Gary's walking the boards.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
This is what he does, justin. He hides them from
us until it's like two weeks away. No, we do
need to know because you go through a creative process
in your mind and.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
It affects us. All. Yeah, that is not sure it is.
Speaker 5 (29:28):
I want him to come in when he's like insisting
on staying in character for the entire rehearsal, that's what
I need him to get to that point he.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Uses an accent more than usual.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Oh, he's been doing and it all plays into wherever
he's at creatively in his mind. And that when he
doesn't tell us that, we just think he's high right,
like he.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
Is, right, I did, I totally because he was jumping subjects.
I felt the same.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
Maybe he's doing character research and trying it on us.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
I do like different characters in there right now.
Speaker 5 (29:53):
It seems to have activated something in you, Shannon, like
you've been You're like, something's weird, but I can't. And
then he said this thing, and you're like, that's it. Yeah,
now it's all clicking together for you.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
It is. Do we know the name of the show?
We're not like, of course we know the name of
the show, but we don't know the name. We will
what's the name of the show. Come on, Garry, it's
just me and you. We will know in due time.
Speaker 5 (30:13):
How about can we know the author, the playwright?
Speaker 3 (30:16):
It's a local, it's a it's a original right of
a classic.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Right, I'm a classic. The classic rhymes with Makespeare.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Oh, I don't know any play rights.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
It was Arthur Miller originally not a play.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
Christopher d Ray was originally a movie.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
I've referenced it a couple of times already on the air.
You have today or just now?
Speaker 5 (30:45):
Yeah, now there's Easter eggs for the podcast listeners. Good
for you, Gary, man, you're a marketing genius. This is
good in due time.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
What time period is this post World War two? Anything
after World War two?
Speaker 2 (31:00):
That's right up, that's what you get. That's what you get.
It's either sometime in the last eighty years or maybe even.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
This is why he doesn't tell us anything because we're stupid.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
True, we're total rooms. You're doing a Kevin Smith that
we wrote Coonies into the stage a class. What if
it's Indiana Jones? How happy if it was Indiana Jones
(31:39):
and adaptation? Yeah? Were he and Sean Connery have sex
with the same woman? So very big issue. Harrison Ford
gets very upset about it. Yeah, I think Gary would
be a great Indiana. Were all the women German spies
in those movies? Thank you? In those movies.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
German was the main oh that was in Temple of Doom?
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Was she a German spy? A Capshaw? It's so much
easier if you just told us what the production is.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
That's what bugs you, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
You always want to eat I.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
Know someone you live with, I I know other things
I have people have connections in this world.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
And maybe that you know it feels better after you
hunt it a little bit. I'm gonna hunt it right now.
Speaker 5 (32:29):
Is this something that we could get one of the
reporters here to get, like, do some investigative German theater?
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Please do google boom. Oh what if she did find it?
That would be pretty insane. Have you ever been to
the Tiki Theater? No, sounds like I'm going is that
that's not a real thing?
Speaker 5 (32:49):
How about can we at least know when this is coming?
Like what time of year.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
That's a good like when the performance? Yeah, like when
we're when a couple of weeks of November. Okay, are

Speaker 1 (33:21):
Okay, what is your first name? Your first name? What
is the first name? Were not can get it from

You are Mortimer. It's Mortimer from Arsenic and.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
Old lace is it scissor Hands? I played Bordimer in
my high school Scissor Hands. No, Oh, it's a movie.
That's a good point. It's a movie. Lace was a movie,
but I think it was a play first. Believe, what
is your first name? What is it? Rhyme again? I've
I've already, I know, I talked about it.
Speaker 5 (33:50):
How about the initials of the character.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Let's get that a m Okay, that's what we can
work with. Yeah, this is great. I hope you can
stick around for that. We're gonna roll.
Speaker 5 (34:02):
You don't even have to ask. I blew out my
entire calendar for today. I'm gonna be sitting in with John.
We're gonna slu this together.
Speaker 3 (34:09):

Speaker 1 (34:22):
Yeah, yeah, Death of a salesman reading from Wikipedia.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Stop. But I got Arthur Miller off the top of
my head. That's got a character. We should go let
them do the news. This is all right.
Speaker 5 (34:33):
We're not even breaking news yet. We're still in the
research phase. Right, this is good.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
