Gary and Shannon kick off the hour with #SwampWatch, unpacking the latest government shutdown drama before shifting to the breaking news of Jane Goodall’s passing at 91. They also highlight LA County’s costly ballot map mailers mistake ahead of the special redistricting election and dive into a New York Post exclusive about people regretting their pandemic-era veneer makeovers. From there, it’s a mix of pop culture and tech: a record-breaking Wheel of Fortune payout, the AI actress Tilly Norwood sparking fierce debate, and news of a new AI-directed movie called Sweet Idleness. The hour closes with a lighter but surprising note, San Francisco, America’s most dog-friendly city, may finally be hitting its canine capacity as locals debate whether too many pups is becoming a problem.

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 (00:10):
Few things that I haven't started yet that I'm waiting
to the morning show the next episode.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
I realize it's out, but I also have this feeling.
I don't remember what happened last season, but my feeling
was is I got really annoyed with this show and
I only stuck with it for Jennifer Aniston and it
wasn't enough. Like Reese Witherspoon's character annoyed the hell out
of me. I felt like it was preachy it had.
(00:37):
It had gone on too long, was my feeling the
last time I set eyes on the show.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I'm just waiting to see if it gets any better,
and I'll give it a shot one or two episodes.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
I kind of feel like its peak was like episode
one and two of the first season.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Honestly, with Steve Carrell and all.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
That probably true. I don't think that's a I don't
think that's a bad review. The other one is a
black Rabbit.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
You really liking that. I've only watched the trailer, but
it seemed like a Gary show to me.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Anyway, we'll talk more about it coming up at twelve thirty.
It's time for swamp Watch.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
I'm a politician, which means I'm a cheat and a liar,
and when I'm not kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipops. Yeah,
we got.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
The real problem is that our leaders are done.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
The other side never quits. So what I'm not going anywhere.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
So now, now you drain the.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Squat, I can imagine what can be and be unburdened
by what has been.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
You know, Murvans have always been going at president, but
they're not stupid.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
A political plunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Who have the people voting for you were? Not swamp Watch,
they're all counteraing.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
They're called this spin wars, and the spin wars are
all about who is to blame for the government shut
down that will go on, and many are saying that
this is kind of a harbinger of what's going to
happen in the midterms. Democrats are blaming the Republican for
rising healthcare costs. Republicans are countering by leading into the
(02:04):
culture wars, attacking Democrats for halting paychecks, and it is
going to be a rock fight knife fight in the midterms.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
It's going to get really ugly really quickly.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Especially if this thing drags on for a week, two weeks,
four weeks. I guess we say that they're making some progress.
The Senate did hold a couple of votes this morning
on some funding bills which would have at least made
this thing go away after twelve or thirteen hours, but
they both failed. They were mirror images of the votes
(02:39):
that they took last night on a couple of different bills.
One of them was a Democrat bill that was put
forward by Democrats. The other one was one put forward
by Republicans.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
These two parties will be going to battle for control
of the House next year, but it's all going to
happen before next year.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
It's starting now.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Democrats believe that they've got the upper hand in this one.
They've got polling that shows voters are concerned about healthcare.
A string of surveys, including morning consults, reveal more voters
are apt to blame Republicans and Democrats for the shutdown,
even though swaths of Americans they both parties share responsibility.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Well, and it's not as simple as saying Republicans control
the House, the Senate, and the White House, and it's
their fault because you still need to have some Democrats
that come alongside to pass these spending bills. And at
this point I mentioned those votes that were taken today.
The one on the Republican bill was a stopgap seven
week spending bill, which at least gets things back open
(03:42):
federal government wise, and only three Democrats voted in favor
of that. I don't know where we go with this.
I'm sick and tired of government shutdowns, even the ones
that we that don't come to fruition, even those shutdowns
that are threatened, we still spend so much oxygen talking
about them. And can you remember who was responsible for
(04:06):
the last one? Can you remember going back to nineteen
seventy six when we had a two or three day shutdown,
who was responsible?
Speaker 3 (04:12):
And why?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
I mean, the idea of keeping score, the ridiculousness of
keeping score on these things is frustrating because Democrats will
constantly say it's Republicans, and Republicans will constantly say it's democrats.
And we had one caller one talkback earlier today that said,
we're the ones who are responsible. We the voter because
(04:33):
we're the ones who keeps sending these morons back to Washington,
DC and expecting different results.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
I had a new book idea.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Yesterday's book idea was we're so fed up with technology
and AI that we decide to just go live off
the land, go to the woods and live like cave people. Okay,
because we're just done with it. It's too much. We're
being sold technology too much, we're being sold AI. If
they're selling us things all the time, if the man
is selling us things, we should be dubious.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Let's get away from all of it. That's my first book.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
My second book idea is this a man or a woman,
But a man in my book is not a politician,
and he's the only one that can bring America back together.
He is a self made man. He is a man
who has worked for a living. He has nothing to
do with politics, and he is the person that people
can actually believe in. He's not selling any sort of trope,
(05:26):
he's not selling any sort of He's lived it. He
is the person. It's not a politician, it's not democrat,
it's not a Republican. It's just an everyday person who
becomes our next leader, mister Smith goes to Washington. Mister
Smith goes to Washington and mister Smith, I never saw
this movie but that you speak of. But mister Smith
(05:49):
knows nothing about how things get done in Washington. And
the book's all about both sides trying to use him
to their own advantage. And he is completely what's word
where you're completely unaffected and you cannot be manipulated by
these people.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Smart.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
He's that and and and it's it's a way of
bringing the government.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
He's just a start by the way.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
It's bringing the government back to the everyday people, the
way that it was intended by our forefathers. None of
these cheese D's and their their suits and their cheese d's,
cheese D's, you know what I mean, pretending that they're
just like you and me. That is so tired, it
is so it's so wrong, it's so inauthentic.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
But here we are.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
We are going to go the completely the other way
when it comes to politics, and we're only going to
elect you know Dave that works at the deli down
on Riverside because he lives, because Dave has a family
of four that he's got to figure out to put
food on the table for and pay the healthcare and
do all the things. It's not some cheese da that
hasn't had to go to the grocery store for seven
(06:55):
years because they've been in politics.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Do you like my book? I do. It does have
echoes of every other plot or well, what's new? What's
new these days? Like the movie Dave.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Did you ever see the movie Dave where he I
think it's Kevin Klein where he looks exactly like the
president and then the president dies and they find the ganger.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
To come in and yes, that was then they did
that with Joe Biden.
Speaker 4 (07:26):
You know.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Everything's been done before.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I don't know about that, but it was one of
those guys where he just an every day dude, so
every dude.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Yeah, oh, and he falls in love right with like
the jaded campaign person or something.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah, and then if it's found out, whatever happened?
Speaker 3 (07:44):
God, the nineties, what a time for cinema, What a time.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Work on a title. I want to know what the
title of your book is going to be, too.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
The one where we all live in the woods or
the everyday man President.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Oh, they're not the same. I thought they were gonna
be the same.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Like say, it comes out of the guy living in
the Woods, where they're like, listen, we know you want
to live in the woods. We want to we want
to respect your decision to live in the woods, but
you should probably also be represented in our government.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
You're going to be very different. I feel like you're
trying to do too much. You're trying to be miles
and sideways, and I just think that book is too big,
because the one where we live in the woods is
going to be super violent, like we're going to become violent.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Okay, because you have to be okay.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
You know, we're eating animals raw flush at that point,
like a Yellowstone. But in the other book, it's more
city oriented, urban urban.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Another quick note out of DC, the Supreme Court today
put off a decision on whether or not President Trump's
going to fire Fed Reserve Governor Lisa Cook. The court
did say it would hear arguments on the case coming
up in January. This was an unsigned memo that came
out in September. Trump appointed Stephen Ron, chair of the
White House Council of Economic Advisors, to serve a temporary
(09:01):
term on the Fed Reserve Board, and he joined two
other Trump appointees. The issue specifically is whether or not
the President can fire Lisa Cook for cause, citing some
mortgage documents that he says that she lied on. But
the flap over the whole thing hasn't lowered, hasn't lowered.
(09:21):
The whole flap over the Fed Reserve Board begins with
Trump saying that they have not lowered interest rates enough.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Jane Goodall has died ninety one years old. She heard
that animal segment we did and was like, you know
what we did.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
We didn't even do the baby chimpanzees at the zoo
the other day. I know, And that was it. Ninety
one years old.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Trail blazing naturalist intimate observations of chimpanzees transform basic conceptions
of humankind.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
What work she did?
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Wow, timeless advocate, tireless advocate of preserving chimpanzee's natural habitat
ninety one years old.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
What a life.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
She was the one who found that they were capable
of a range of emotions and behaviors similar to those
of humans. Love, grief, violence.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Maybe that's the name of your book, The Chimpanzee Stories.
I just feel like you're not taking this seriously.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
You're right, you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand

Speaker 2 (11:06):
If you keep an ear on your radio, we'll give
you another shot an hour from now to win one
thousand bucks. A quick note, by the way, you, as
a voter, were mailed inaccurate maps for your November special
election that's coming up. No, don't worry, and if you
look at the map you were mailed. I don't remember
(11:26):
anything about a map.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
I get this.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
I think, get the sample ballot, unless it's the wrong
polling place or what have you. Right, I did get
the sample ballot, which is brought into clear focus. What
an absolute flipping waste of money this special election two
hundred and eighty four million dollars is what they've said
that they are going to spend on this one issue
(11:49):
special election for the state of California. And they can't
even pull their heads out of their collective asses in
order to send you the correct maps on this thing,
so they will correct it. Secretary of State Shirley Weber
says this is a labeling error, but it will cost
them millions of dollars to correct the error. Watch for
(12:14):
the postcard in the mail that will correct their maps.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
We all know people with veneers pretty common, especially in
Los Angeles.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
In fact, it's funny.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
I was watching a movie recently and thinking, oh, those
are real teeth, Like it was remarkable that somebody had
obviously real teeth big star, I forget who it was,
but kind of ubiquitous around here. And now there's some
people who are saying that they've been pretty costly when
it comes to fixing what was put in. Again, like
(12:50):
I said, so many people have them, and I've never
heard any regrets, but apparently there are some. Taylor Brazinski
is one of the people who's hopped on social media
to try and get the word out that she's spent
about thirty thousand to fix her ten thousand dollars veneers.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Which is fun.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Well, this is obviously it's not as invasive as plastic
surgery necessarily, but it can have some of the same drawbacks.
We are caddy little bees in here sometimes and we
will find somebody that shows up on one of these
morning shows in front.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Of the TV, and we go, what did they do
to their face? It's better to age gradually, I mean,
that's what we will say.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Well, we're not we're when we say that, When you
and I say that, we're actually really curious what did
they do to their face?
Speaker 3 (13:39):
And like what don't happen that? Yeah? Like what is that? Like?
Speaker 1 (13:42):
What makes is that filler? Is that botox? Is that
lip injections?
Speaker 4 (13:48):
Like?
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Really, I'd liked a one sheet of what was done?
And that's been kind of popular too on social media
of famous people. I think the Kardashians Stop me if
I'm wrong, I know you'll know led the way and
being public about what they've had done, like what they
have had done to their bodies, to their faces and
all that.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
What gets you to look like that? I would say,
Dolly Parton was the first.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Well she was honest about the boobs, right, But yeah,
you're right. She's always said if something needs to be
lifted or tucked or whatever, I do.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
It lifted and tuck it. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
That girl that you mentioned, Taylor, that she's spent thirty
thousand to fix her ten thousand dollars veniars. She's had
races twice, but said she wasn't happy with the uneven
sizing of her teeth, and when she was nineteen, she
began searching online for solutions and decided to go for
Veneers and she thought it was going to be a
great smile, but she said the mouth was permanently screwed
(14:44):
up and she's still insecure about her teeth because of
everything that happened.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
She went.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Wanted to get just four veneers to address her concerns,
but this dentist offered her.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Ten for ten grand. Oh four, that's not enough. You
need ten.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
We can't go budget on your face or on your ass.
It's a plastic surgery golden rule. Doctor Brian Cantor specializes
in this. He has a practice in Central Park, South
and he says that when it comes to Veneers, There's
no thing as one size fits all. He says, having
veneers is like having artwork in your mouth. Each tooth
(15:21):
needs to be customized for each person or it will
look ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Now Taylor developed what they said was black triangular gaps
a sign of biological width violation.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
I don't like biological violations. It occurs when the veneers
applied incorrectly. They said.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
It causes your gums to react as though they are
trying to push a foreign object off the tooth. It's
there to protect you, and your body is fighting back
against the veneers if they're put on incorrectly. She met
with was met with denial and dismissal from the NIS too.
Originally did the procedure, and every time I went back
(16:03):
they told me it was no big deal, and then eventually.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Stopped responding to her calls. They ghosted her. It seems like, yes,
she just had a bad uh. Well again.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
The body will fight back, though the body sometimes gives
you a little heads up like what.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Are you doing?
Speaker 2 (16:19):
It will reject certain times they put there that he's
not supposed to be there.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
What are you doing? Stop putting things? Live your life,
stop it, stop it. What is that now says your body,
Oh where are you going to put that? Is what
they said, Are you kidding me? And then it gets Burguart.
It sounds like this not billy, are you having more chocolate?
Speaker 4 (16:43):
Chart on?
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Whoa, this is funny?
Speaker 4 (16:47):
What is that?
Speaker 3 (16:48):
It's a lot of chuch keys.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
You know who we've been obsessed about all day in
Here is how Cheryl Crow look speaking of she was
on Jenna and Friends this morning.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
And she did something on one of their morning shows.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Looks elt than she did in the nineties. She looks
as she's sixty three years old. She looks barely forty.
She looks amazing, and we're looking at her and it
doesn't look like she's had anything done. Obviously, whatever has
whatever's done, it's chef's kiss.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
We talked yesterday about Tillie Norwood, this AI created actress
that has been floating around and causing controversy. I got
something else. What about the guy who is an AI director?
He is AI or he is AI? They have using
(17:40):
AI as.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
A Why would they not? You know, all roles can
be filled by AI. We got to stop putting stuff
in our bodies. What is your body upset with? Right now?
I don't know there's an irritation. There is an irritation.
I can tell. Yeah, it's fighting back. I can do.
Gary and Channon will continue.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
We have an update when it comes to a baseball
We've got a guy posing as a teenager to play
football and an announcer that got into trouble declaring a
squad the new face of ozempic.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
My wife sent me that one this morning. Did she
pretty good?
Speaker 2 (18:35):
By the way, you might have been hearing our friend
Ryan Seacrest doing promos for Wheel of Fortune and that
someone might win a million bucks?
Speaker 3 (18:44):
They did.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
A woman from Connecticut won one thirty five and fifty
five dollars, the largest payout ever for the Wheel of Fortune.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
What did you have to do? Go the distance and
spin the wheel to land on the million dollars?
Speaker 2 (19:00):
You get the one million dollar wedge early in the show,
and then she went on to earn thirty five and
fifty five dollars in cash, a trip to Montana, a
trip to Japan. You saw the puzzle and then advanced
to the bonus round. Wow, I think I think the
winning puzzles was pack of Coyotes.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Why would you ruin that She's already done it. Yeah,
but it hasn't aired yet. Yeah it has, Oh it has?
Speaker 4 (19:26):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
When did it air last night? Oh?
Speaker 4 (19:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:29):
When did they tape those things?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
June? Okay, I mean it's not I don't know when
they take But you like most game shows, like Jeopardy,
for example, they would do four, four or five shows
on a Monday.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Right, and that was it. I still think you would
be a wonderful game show host. I still think that's
in the cards. I appreciate that, but everything is going
by the way of AI now. I don't think an
AI game show host would work. Why not? There's no personality.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Well that's the whole point of AI is trying to
figure out how to make it have personality.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, you just watched Pat say Jack and Alex Trebek
and kind of come up with a amalgamation of personalities.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
I guess don't forget wink, Martindale. You can't have you
can't have a game show, so that wink. We talked
yesterday about AI getting involved in movies and how there
is a new AI character, Tillie Norwood, that is supposedly
drawing the ire out of actors, writers and everybody in
Hollywood because they don't want this thing connected with movies.
(20:36):
They don't want AI characters, they don't want AI actors,
which is a weird way to put it, but that's
they don't want it. Well, I've got another version of that.
From the production side of it. There is an Italian producer,
Andrea Irrevelino, has unveiled what he says is the first
(20:57):
movie with an AI director. This guy include worked on Ferrari,
he worked on To the Bone. He's announced this new movie.
It's called The Sweet Idleness, which is overseen by Phil
I don't know if this is supposed to be a joke,
a playoff of Fellini, but it's Felon Ai f E
(21:22):
L l I n AI, an artificial intelligence director, and
they said that it's conceived to celebrate the poetic and
dreamlike language of great European cinema. Now this is this
Fellini AI housed at the company that this producer owns
is an AI arm of this company. And it said
(21:42):
that he Andrea Irrevelino, would act as the quote human
in the loop. He'd be a supervisor, he'd be the
producer that guides and monitors this AI director in all
of this. But listen to the plot of this movie
that AI is now the director of wheat Idleness imagines
a future world in which only one percent of humanity
(22:05):
still works.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
Ninety percent of workers have been automated.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Transforming labor into a symbolic ritual, and the rest of
us just live in the freedom and the leisure that
is provided by these machines.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
It says that the entire thing is AI generated, so
it has that motion smoothed, boneless, uncanny valley quality, with
frequent aberrations like people dancing alone waving noodle arms.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
The actors or I guess the performers in all of this,
to your point, are all excuse me, are all computer generated.
There is another company that this producer owns that works
with real actors to create digital likenesses that could be
used by the AI director. They haven't just said when
(22:53):
they're going to release this and this guy, this guy
claims that he is not about making AI movies for
the rest of his life, but he just wanted this
to be the new chapter in the history of cinema,
not to replace traditional cinema with humans telling humans how
to act like other.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
Humans and sometimes monsters. The actor director stuff is not surprising.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
I'll be interested if you know you can make publicists
become AI, you know, like the real manipulations that go
in on Hollywood, the whole the Emperor has no close
facade of big and bold and movie star and all,
you know, the pedestal making of all these people. If
(23:40):
that could be done by AI, I don't think it
ever could be done by AI. The people behind the
scenes that make movie stars stars.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
I would be curious if there was also a writing
aspect of it.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
If AI looks at all of the great blockbuster if
all you're doing is budget great blockbuster movies that all
make millions of dollars, Avatar, Titanic, Star Wars, you know,
all of these huge box office smashes, and then creates
a formula to write the next one.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
Yeah, so far, it's just it's missing the mark.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Like you said yesterday, I've just noticed a really bad
dialogue recently, a bad acting, bad dialogue, and a lot
of the stuff that I've been consuming, and it's almost
like it's already AI, where it's it's so close to being.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
What it should be but it's just not there. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Up next, one of the most dog friendly cities in
the entire world is no longer dog friendly. People are
getting upset with how much liberty people have taken with
their favorite coaches.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
Really, because they'll put up with anything in this city.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
I get listen, maybe you start cleaning the human feces
off the sidewalks and people start going, hey, wait a minute,
I don't want I.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Don't even want dog feces on my sidewalk.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
I love this story of this man who's posing as
a teenager to play football. It sounds like a nice,
feel good, maybe made for TV movie, But they're very
angry about this. If it was nineteen eighty five, Oh yeah, what,
we too were nicer, Well, we didn't assume the worst
(25:35):
about people. I assume the worst about people like that
now I know.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
I mean, it's one thing to like, pretend you're at
seventeen to go back to high school, Yeah, that's one thing.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
But to also then play sports, well I think a
little too far he wanted. It happens in the Baseball
World Series. Those kids aren't sixteen.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Those kids are in series grown ass men or pretending
to be youths all the time, aren't they don't they
catch these kids every year they're like twenty three and
not twenty fifteen.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
They haven't done that in a while. It happens.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
You want another shot, You want your shot, and sometimes
for your shot at the American dream, you've got to
fudge the age a little bit.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Fudge the age one of the stories. I don't like that.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
You think the worst now. You used to us so optimistic.
You were very optimistic. You really thought the best in people.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
No, not that guy. What happened? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
Sitting across from you four hours a day. Jane Goodall
has died. She was actually supposed to be in an
event in Pasadena today.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
Oh do you know that? No, she died at ninety one.
She died of ninety one.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
According to the Jane Goodall Institute, she passed away due
to natural causes. Part here in California is part of
a speaking tour. Scheduled to speak at a ceremony at
EF Academy in Pasadena to announce a student led effort
to plant more than five thousand trees in the Palisades
and Altadena communities over the next several years. Lifelong advocate
for the protection of a natured species, of course, best
(27:13):
known for immersing herself into the habitat of chimps in
Tanzania's Gombey National Park back in the sixties, books, movies.
I mean, she is just one of the more high
profile naturalists. I guess you could say, I'd say the
most high profile.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
That's sure. I would argue that too, it could.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Apparently San Francisco has long been a haven for dog lovers,
and now people are saying that there are some taking
advantage of the situation, exploiting the city's tolerance. That pause
are up on the counters of coffee shops and no
one flinches. Croissants are being stolen out of the hands
(27:56):
of hungry diners by hungry or black labss of Target
and Trader Joe's are full of service animals, service animals.
How San Francisco is this like you can shoot up
on battery and nobody looks, but you steal a cryssant.
(28:18):
Your dog steals her croissant at the overpriced coffee shop,
and oh, throw the book at them.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Chandra moved to San Francisco in part of in part
because of how much San Francisco was known for loving dogs.
She's a biotech worker. She's the owner of Clementine a
Docs and with sixty four thousand Instagram followers, My dog
does not have that many Instagram followers.
Speaker 4 (28:40):
I feel like, she.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Says she takes Clementine everywhere she's permitted, restaurant's, clothing boutiques.
I kind of feel like, and I don't know, because
I'm not a dog owner, but you kind of got
to follow the rule of just because you can, doesn't
mean you should take your dog to every single place.
I mean, I remember we were at a restaurant. I
don't remember where we were, but there was a dog.
(29:03):
It was a like a nice restaurant, and there was
a dog just perched on the seat at the table
next to us, just sitting there.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
Were you was the dog moood doing anything, making noise,
causing problems?
Speaker 1 (29:18):
No, but you pay a certain amount of money to
go out and have a nice meal. You don't want
to be eating, you know, with somebody else's dog right there.
You're constantly wearing is a dog going to jump up
and eat my prime rib?
Speaker 3 (29:30):
Like? What's going to happen here, not that I would
do that. I don't order prime red, wow, I don't.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
But it was kind of like that kind of a
place like house, the prime rib type of a place,
and there's a dog sitting there, and it's like, it's
just it's uncivilized. Frankly, I eat dog.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
I eat dogs. Sorry, I'm in the need that isolated.
I eat dog. I eat almost every day with a
dog in the room.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Yes, But if you were paying to go to a
meal with your wife, would you want to eat with
someone else's dog at your lap level?
Speaker 3 (30:05):
I do suppose. I do suppose.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
There are two things that would play into that. Number One,
it's not your own dog lap level.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
I don't need. I don't need the dog up on
the chair, right.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
It's one thing if the dog's at someone's feet and
it's a help or dog or whatever. Yeah, but sitting
at the table on a chair. Come on, listen, and
I'll say this.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
I love the idea of taking my dog places like
I'll take my dog to home depot or Low's or
something like that, because there's plenty of spaces. Even if
I do see another dog in the store or something
like that, there's plenty of opportunity for me to go
the other way, and there's no you know, there's no
tangling between the dogs. But if you have a dog
that's not very well behaved, or you're not certain of
(30:45):
how that dog would behave, you got to be really
careful about where you take that thing, because it's not
just you and whatever comfort or you want to show
off your dog. I get all that, but you better
be careful about what you do with that dog.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
Let me ask you this.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
I saw in the desert as out in Palm Springs
and we're at a hotel having dinner and there is
a couple, I want to say they were maybe thirty
years old, a good looking couple in at leisure where
fit looked like they had just been out for a
run maybe and that's why.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
But they had a dog in a stroller.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Now, the stroller probably costs more than well, certainly the
strollers that we were put in as a youth that
were all hand me downs and probably had no safety standards.
But this stroller looked like it went for the cost
of a Maserati like it was. You can tell a
nice stroller when you see one, And inside was a
dog and I'm thinking, maybe this dog has two legs,
(31:39):
Maybe this dog's got three legs.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
Maybe this dog's an issue.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
They take the dog out of the stroller, the dog
runs around, it's a small dog, it's got all the legs,
and then it hops back in its stroller and off
they go. I understand a stroller for a dog if
it's somebody who needs a new hip that has a dog,
or the dog needs a new hip. But where do
(32:02):
you come down on people putting their dogs in high
end strollers just because.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Well, I will say this, it sounds like those people
are very active and sometimes small dogs cannot keep up with, right,
So maybe they had just gone for a run. Yeah, Hey,
maybe you get a different dog. If that's your lifestyle
and that's what you're gonna do, and you're going to
run five miles a day and you want your dog
to run with you, get a dog that will do that.
Don't buy one that has to be in a stroller
(32:29):
with you.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
That I can't with stroller.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Although it didn't seem like they had been for a run,
I mean it was the heat of the day in
Palm Springs. I think that they just use that stroller
all the time.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
With that dog. It's not the first time I've seen
people with the stroller on the dog. Dogs are generally lazy.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
We think of them as they lay around all the time,
but dogs need physical actay love it.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
We lay around all the time if we could, but
our bodies actually like to move.
Speaker 3 (32:57):
Well, speak for yourself. Mine is that it's.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Fighting back the body fight. You are all buttoned up today,
You're keeping the whole.
Speaker 3 (33:07):
I'm cold.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
It is so flipping cold in here all the time.
I wore a shirt yesterday, but I didn't wear a
jacket or a sweatshirt over the top of it.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
I was cold all day, all day.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Yeah, you should leave a jacket in the office. I've
got a couple in there you could wear all thank you.
I have that Pink Ladies one from Halloween a couple
of years ago from Greece.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
I'm sure that would look great on me. We'll talk
trending when we come back to Gary and Shannon. You've
been listening to The Gary and Shannon Show.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
You can always hear us live on KFI AM six
forty nine am to one pm every Monday through Friday,
and anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
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 (00:10):
Few things that I haven't started yet that I'm waiting
to the morning show the next episode.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
I realize it's out, but I also have this feeling.
I don't remember what happened last season, but my feeling
was is I got really annoyed with this show and
I only stuck with it for Jennifer Aniston and it
wasn't enough. Like Reese Witherspoon's character annoyed the hell out
of me. I felt like it was preachy it had.
(00:37):
It had gone on too long, was my feeling the
last time I set eyes on the show.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I'm just waiting to see if it gets any better,
and I'll give it a shot one or two episodes.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
I kind of feel like its peak was like episode
one and two of the first season.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Honestly, with Steve Carrell and all.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
That probably true. I don't think that's a I don't
think that's a bad review. The other one is a
black Rabbit.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
You really liking that. I've only watched the trailer, but
it seemed like a Gary show to me.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Anyway, we'll talk more about it coming up at twelve thirty.
It's time for swamp Watch.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
I'm a politician, which means I'm a cheat and a liar,
and when I'm not kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipops. Yeah,
we got.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
The real problem is that our leaders are done.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
The other side never quits. So what I'm not going anywhere.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
So now, now you drain the.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Squat, I can imagine what can be and be unburdened
by what has been.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
You know, Murvans have always been going at president, but
they're not stupid.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
A political plunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Who have the people voting for you were? Not swamp Watch,
they're all counteraing.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
They're called this spin wars, and the spin wars are
all about who is to blame for the government shut
down that will go on, and many are saying that
this is kind of a harbinger of what's going to
happen in the midterms. Democrats are blaming the Republican for
rising healthcare costs. Republicans are countering by leading into the
(02:04):
culture wars, attacking Democrats for halting paychecks, and it is
going to be a rock fight knife fight in the midterms.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
It's going to get really ugly really quickly.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Especially if this thing drags on for a week, two weeks,
four weeks. I guess we say that they're making some progress.
The Senate did hold a couple of votes this morning
on some funding bills which would have at least made
this thing go away after twelve or thirteen hours, but
they both failed. They were mirror images of the votes
(02:39):
that they took last night on a couple of different bills.
One of them was a Democrat bill that was put
forward by Democrats. The other one was one put forward
by Republicans.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
These two parties will be going to battle for control
of the House next year, but it's all going to
happen before next year.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
It's starting now.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Democrats believe that they've got the upper hand in this one.
They've got polling that shows voters are concerned about healthcare.
A string of surveys, including morning consults, reveal more voters
are apt to blame Republicans and Democrats for the shutdown,
even though swaths of Americans they both parties share responsibility.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Well, and it's not as simple as saying Republicans control
the House, the Senate, and the White House, and it's
their fault because you still need to have some Democrats
that come alongside to pass these spending bills. And at
this point I mentioned those votes that were taken today.
The one on the Republican bill was a stopgap seven
week spending bill, which at least gets things back open
(03:42):
federal government wise, and only three Democrats voted in favor
of that. I don't know where we go with this.
I'm sick and tired of government shutdowns, even the ones
that we that don't come to fruition, even those shutdowns
that are threatened, we still spend so much oxygen talking
about them. And can you remember who was responsible for
(04:06):
the last one? Can you remember going back to nineteen
seventy six when we had a two or three day shutdown,
who was responsible?
Speaker 3 (04:12):
And why?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
I mean, the idea of keeping score, the ridiculousness of
keeping score on these things is frustrating because Democrats will
constantly say it's Republicans, and Republicans will constantly say it's democrats.
And we had one caller one talkback earlier today that said,
we're the ones who are responsible. We the voter because
(04:33):
we're the ones who keeps sending these morons back to Washington,
DC and expecting different results.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
I had a new book idea.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Yesterday's book idea was we're so fed up with technology
and AI that we decide to just go live off
the land, go to the woods and live like cave people. Okay,
because we're just done with it. It's too much. We're
being sold technology too much, we're being sold AI. If
they're selling us things all the time, if the man
is selling us things, we should be dubious.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Let's get away from all of it. That's my first book.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
My second book idea is this a man or a woman,
But a man in my book is not a politician,
and he's the only one that can bring America back together.
He is a self made man. He is a man
who has worked for a living. He has nothing to
do with politics, and he is the person that people
can actually believe in. He's not selling any sort of trope,
(05:26):
he's not selling any sort of He's lived it. He
is the person. It's not a politician, it's not democrat,
it's not a Republican. It's just an everyday person who
becomes our next leader, mister Smith goes to Washington. Mister
Smith goes to Washington and mister Smith, I never saw
this movie but that you speak of. But mister Smith
(05:49):
knows nothing about how things get done in Washington. And
the book's all about both sides trying to use him
to their own advantage. And he is completely what's word
where you're completely unaffected and you cannot be manipulated by
these people.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Smart.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
He's that and and and it's it's a way of
bringing the government.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
He's just a start by the way.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
It's bringing the government back to the everyday people, the
way that it was intended by our forefathers. None of
these cheese D's and their their suits and their cheese d's,
cheese D's, you know what I mean, pretending that they're
just like you and me. That is so tired, it
is so it's so wrong, it's so inauthentic.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
But here we are.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
We are going to go the completely the other way
when it comes to politics, and we're only going to
elect you know Dave that works at the deli down
on Riverside because he lives, because Dave has a family
of four that he's got to figure out to put
food on the table for and pay the healthcare and
do all the things. It's not some cheese da that
hasn't had to go to the grocery store for seven
(06:55):
years because they've been in politics.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Do you like my book? I do. It does have
echoes of every other plot or well, what's new? What's
new these days? Like the movie Dave.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Did you ever see the movie Dave where he I
think it's Kevin Klein where he looks exactly like the
president and then the president dies and they find the ganger.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
To come in and yes, that was then they did
that with Joe Biden.
Speaker 4 (07:26):
You know.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Everything's been done before.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I don't know about that, but it was one of
those guys where he just an every day dude, so
every dude.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Yeah, oh, and he falls in love right with like
the jaded campaign person or something.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah, and then if it's found out, whatever happened?
Speaker 3 (07:44):
God, the nineties, what a time for cinema, What a time.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Work on a title. I want to know what the
title of your book is going to be, too.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
The one where we all live in the woods or
the everyday man President.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Oh, they're not the same. I thought they were gonna
be the same.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Like say, it comes out of the guy living in
the Woods, where they're like, listen, we know you want
to live in the woods. We want to we want
to respect your decision to live in the woods, but
you should probably also be represented in our government.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
You're going to be very different. I feel like you're
trying to do too much. You're trying to be miles
and sideways, and I just think that book is too big,
because the one where we live in the woods is
going to be super violent, like we're going to become violent.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Okay, because you have to be okay.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
You know, we're eating animals raw flush at that point,
like a Yellowstone. But in the other book, it's more
city oriented, urban urban.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Another quick note out of DC, the Supreme Court today
put off a decision on whether or not President Trump's
going to fire Fed Reserve Governor Lisa Cook. The court
did say it would hear arguments on the case coming
up in January. This was an unsigned memo that came
out in September. Trump appointed Stephen Ron, chair of the
White House Council of Economic Advisors, to serve a temporary
(09:01):
term on the Fed Reserve Board, and he joined two
other Trump appointees. The issue specifically is whether or not
the President can fire Lisa Cook for cause, citing some
mortgage documents that he says that she lied on. But
the flap over the whole thing hasn't lowered, hasn't lowered.
(09:21):
The whole flap over the Fed Reserve Board begins with
Trump saying that they have not lowered interest rates enough.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Jane Goodall has died ninety one years old. She heard
that animal segment we did and was like, you know
what we did.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
We didn't even do the baby chimpanzees at the zoo
the other day. I know, And that was it. Ninety
one years old.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Trail blazing naturalist intimate observations of chimpanzees transform basic conceptions
of humankind.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
What work she did?
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Wow, timeless advocate, tireless advocate of preserving chimpanzee's natural habitat
ninety one years old.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
What a life.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
She was the one who found that they were capable
of a range of emotions and behaviors similar to those
of humans. Love, grief, violence.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Maybe that's the name of your book, The Chimpanzee Stories.
I just feel like you're not taking this seriously.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
You're right, you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand
from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
We've got your chance at one thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (11:06):
If you keep an ear on your radio, we'll give
you another shot an hour from now to win one
thousand bucks. A quick note, by the way, you, as
a voter, were mailed inaccurate maps for your November special
election that's coming up. No, don't worry, and if you
look at the map you were mailed. I don't remember
(11:26):
anything about a map.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
I get this.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
I think, get the sample ballot, unless it's the wrong
polling place or what have you. Right, I did get
the sample ballot, which is brought into clear focus. What
an absolute flipping waste of money this special election two
hundred and eighty four million dollars is what they've said
that they are going to spend on this one issue
(11:49):
special election for the state of California. And they can't
even pull their heads out of their collective asses in
order to send you the correct maps on this thing,
so they will correct it. Secretary of State Shirley Weber
says this is a labeling error, but it will cost
them millions of dollars to correct the error. Watch for
(12:14):
the postcard in the mail that will correct their maps.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
We all know people with veneers pretty common, especially in
Los Angeles.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
In fact, it's funny.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
I was watching a movie recently and thinking, oh, those
are real teeth, Like it was remarkable that somebody had
obviously real teeth big star, I forget who it was,
but kind of ubiquitous around here. And now there's some
people who are saying that they've been pretty costly when
it comes to fixing what was put in. Again, like
(12:50):
I said, so many people have them, and I've never
heard any regrets, but apparently there are some. Taylor Brazinski
is one of the people who's hopped on social media
to try and get the word out that she's spent
about thirty thousand to fix her ten thousand dollars veneers.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Which is fun.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Well, this is obviously it's not as invasive as plastic
surgery necessarily, but it can have some of the same drawbacks.
We are caddy little bees in here sometimes and we
will find somebody that shows up on one of these
morning shows in front.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Of the TV, and we go, what did they do
to their face? It's better to age gradually, I mean,
that's what we will say.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Well, we're not we're when we say that, When you
and I say that, we're actually really curious what did
they do to their face?
Speaker 3 (13:39):
And like what don't happen that? Yeah? Like what is that? Like?
Speaker 1 (13:42):
What makes is that filler? Is that botox? Is that
lip injections?
Speaker 4 (13:48):
Like?
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Really, I'd liked a one sheet of what was done?
And that's been kind of popular too on social media
of famous people. I think the Kardashians Stop me if
I'm wrong, I know you'll know led the way and
being public about what they've had done, like what they
have had done to their bodies, to their faces and
all that.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
What gets you to look like that? I would say,
Dolly Parton was the first.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Well she was honest about the boobs, right, But yeah,
you're right. She's always said if something needs to be
lifted or tucked or whatever, I do.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
It lifted and tuck it. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
That girl that you mentioned, Taylor, that she's spent thirty
thousand to fix her ten thousand dollars veniars. She's had
races twice, but said she wasn't happy with the uneven
sizing of her teeth, and when she was nineteen, she
began searching online for solutions and decided to go for
Veneers and she thought it was going to be a
great smile, but she said the mouth was permanently screwed
(14:44):
up and she's still insecure about her teeth because of
everything that happened.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
She went.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Wanted to get just four veneers to address her concerns,
but this dentist offered her.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Ten for ten grand. Oh four, that's not enough. You
need ten.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
We can't go budget on your face or on your ass.
It's a plastic surgery golden rule. Doctor Brian Cantor specializes
in this. He has a practice in Central Park, South
and he says that when it comes to Veneers, There's
no thing as one size fits all. He says, having
veneers is like having artwork in your mouth. Each tooth
(15:21):
needs to be customized for each person or it will
look ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Now Taylor developed what they said was black triangular gaps
a sign of biological width violation.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
I don't like biological violations. It occurs when the veneers
applied incorrectly. They said.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
It causes your gums to react as though they are
trying to push a foreign object off the tooth. It's
there to protect you, and your body is fighting back
against the veneers if they're put on incorrectly. She met
with was met with denial and dismissal from the NIS too.
Originally did the procedure, and every time I went back
(16:03):
they told me it was no big deal, and then eventually.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Stopped responding to her calls. They ghosted her. It seems like, yes,
she just had a bad uh. Well again.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
The body will fight back, though the body sometimes gives
you a little heads up like what.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Are you doing?
Speaker 2 (16:19):
It will reject certain times they put there that he's
not supposed to be there.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
What are you doing? Stop putting things? Live your life,
stop it, stop it. What is that now says your body,
Oh where are you going to put that? Is what
they said, Are you kidding me? And then it gets Burguart.
It sounds like this not billy, are you having more chocolate?
Speaker 4 (16:43):
Chart on?
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Whoa, this is funny?
Speaker 4 (16:47):
What is that?
Speaker 3 (16:48):
It's a lot of chuch keys.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
You know who we've been obsessed about all day in
Here is how Cheryl Crow look speaking of she was
on Jenna and Friends this morning.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
And she did something on one of their morning shows.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Looks elt than she did in the nineties. She looks
as she's sixty three years old. She looks barely forty.
She looks amazing, and we're looking at her and it
doesn't look like she's had anything done. Obviously, whatever has
whatever's done, it's chef's kiss.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
We talked yesterday about Tillie Norwood, this AI created actress
that has been floating around and causing controversy. I got
something else. What about the guy who is an AI director?
He is AI or he is AI? They have using
(17:40):
AI as.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
A Why would they not? You know, all roles can
be filled by AI. We got to stop putting stuff
in our bodies. What is your body upset with? Right now?
I don't know there's an irritation. There is an irritation.
I can tell. Yeah, it's fighting back. I can do.
Gary and Channon will continue.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
We have an update when it comes to a baseball
We've got a guy posing as a teenager to play
football and an announcer that got into trouble declaring a
squad the new face of ozempic.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
My wife sent me that one this morning. Did she
pretty good?
Speaker 2 (18:35):
By the way, you might have been hearing our friend
Ryan Seacrest doing promos for Wheel of Fortune and that
someone might win a million bucks?
Speaker 3 (18:44):
They did.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
A woman from Connecticut won one thirty five and fifty
five dollars, the largest payout ever for the Wheel of Fortune.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
What did you have to do? Go the distance and
spin the wheel to land on the million dollars?
Speaker 2 (19:00):
You get the one million dollar wedge early in the show,
and then she went on to earn thirty five and
fifty five dollars in cash, a trip to Montana, a
trip to Japan. You saw the puzzle and then advanced
to the bonus round. Wow, I think I think the
winning puzzles was pack of Coyotes.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
Why would you ruin that She's already done it. Yeah,
but it hasn't aired yet. Yeah it has, Oh it has?
Speaker 4 (19:26):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
When did it air last night? Oh?
Speaker 4 (19:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:29):
When did they tape those things?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
June? Okay, I mean it's not I don't know when
they take But you like most game shows, like Jeopardy,
for example, they would do four, four or five shows
on a Monday.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Right, and that was it. I still think you would
be a wonderful game show host. I still think that's
in the cards. I appreciate that, but everything is going
by the way of AI now. I don't think an
AI game show host would work. Why not? There's no personality.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Well that's the whole point of AI is trying to
figure out how to make it have personality.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, you just watched Pat say Jack and Alex Trebek
and kind of come up with a amalgamation of personalities.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
I guess don't forget wink, Martindale. You can't have you
can't have a game show, so that wink. We talked
yesterday about AI getting involved in movies and how there
is a new AI character, Tillie Norwood, that is supposedly
drawing the ire out of actors, writers and everybody in
Hollywood because they don't want this thing connected with movies.
(20:36):
They don't want AI characters, they don't want AI actors,
which is a weird way to put it, but that's
they don't want it. Well, I've got another version of that.
From the production side of it. There is an Italian producer,
Andrea Irrevelino, has unveiled what he says is the first
(20:57):
movie with an AI director. This guy include worked on Ferrari,
he worked on To the Bone. He's announced this new movie.
It's called The Sweet Idleness, which is overseen by Phil
I don't know if this is supposed to be a joke,
a playoff of Fellini, but it's Felon Ai f E
(21:22):
L l I n AI, an artificial intelligence director, and
they said that it's conceived to celebrate the poetic and
dreamlike language of great European cinema. Now this is this
Fellini AI housed at the company that this producer owns
is an AI arm of this company. And it said
(21:42):
that he Andrea Irrevelino, would act as the quote human
in the loop. He'd be a supervisor, he'd be the
producer that guides and monitors this AI director in all
of this. But listen to the plot of this movie
that AI is now the director of wheat Idleness imagines
a future world in which only one percent of humanity
(22:05):
still works.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
Ninety percent of workers have been automated.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Transforming labor into a symbolic ritual, and the rest of
us just live in the freedom and the leisure that
is provided by these machines.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
It says that the entire thing is AI generated, so
it has that motion smoothed, boneless, uncanny valley quality, with
frequent aberrations like people dancing alone waving noodle arms.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
The actors or I guess the performers in all of this,
to your point, are all excuse me, are all computer generated.
There is another company that this producer owns that works
with real actors to create digital likenesses that could be
used by the AI director. They haven't just said when
(22:53):
they're going to release this and this guy, this guy
claims that he is not about making AI movies for
the rest of his life, but he just wanted this
to be the new chapter in the history of cinema,
not to replace traditional cinema with humans telling humans how
to act like other.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
Humans and sometimes monsters. The actor director stuff is not surprising.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
I'll be interested if you know you can make publicists
become AI, you know, like the real manipulations that go
in on Hollywood, the whole the Emperor has no close
facade of big and bold and movie star and all,
you know, the pedestal making of all these people. If
(23:40):
that could be done by AI, I don't think it
ever could be done by AI. The people behind the
scenes that make movie stars stars.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
I would be curious if there was also a writing
aspect of it.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
If AI looks at all of the great blockbuster if
all you're doing is budget great blockbuster movies that all
make millions of dollars, Avatar, Titanic, Star Wars, you know,
all of these huge box office smashes, and then creates
a formula to write the next one.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
Yeah, so far, it's just it's missing the mark.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Like you said yesterday, I've just noticed a really bad
dialogue recently, a bad acting, bad dialogue, and a lot
of the stuff that I've been consuming, and it's almost
like it's already AI, where it's it's so close to being.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
What it should be but it's just not there. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Up next, one of the most dog friendly cities in
the entire world is no longer dog friendly. People are
getting upset with how much liberty people have taken with
their favorite coaches.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
Really, because they'll put up with anything in this city.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
I get listen, maybe you start cleaning the human feces
off the sidewalks and people start going, hey, wait a minute,
I don't want I.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Don't even want dog feces on my sidewalk.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
I love this story of this man who's posing as
a teenager to play football. It sounds like a nice,
feel good, maybe made for TV movie, But they're very
angry about this. If it was nineteen eighty five, Oh yeah, what,
we too were nicer, Well, we didn't assume the worst
(25:35):
about people. I assume the worst about people like that
now I know.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
I mean, it's one thing to like, pretend you're at
seventeen to go back to high school, Yeah, that's one thing.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
But to also then play sports, well I think a
little too far he wanted. It happens in the Baseball
World Series. Those kids aren't sixteen.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Those kids are in series grown ass men or pretending
to be youths all the time, aren't they don't they
catch these kids every year they're like twenty three and
not twenty fifteen.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
They haven't done that in a while. It happens.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
You want another shot, You want your shot, and sometimes
for your shot at the American dream, you've got to
fudge the age a little bit.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Fudge the age one of the stories. I don't like that.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
You think the worst now. You used to us so optimistic.
You were very optimistic. You really thought the best in people.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
No, not that guy. What happened? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
Sitting across from you four hours a day. Jane Goodall
has died. She was actually supposed to be in an
event in Pasadena today.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
Oh do you know that? No, she died at ninety one.
She died of ninety one.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
According to the Jane Goodall Institute, she passed away due
to natural causes. Part here in California is part of
a speaking tour. Scheduled to speak at a ceremony at
EF Academy in Pasadena to announce a student led effort
to plant more than five thousand trees in the Palisades
and Altadena communities over the next several years. Lifelong advocate
for the protection of a natured species, of course, best
(27:13):
known for immersing herself into the habitat of chimps in
Tanzania's Gombey National Park back in the sixties, books, movies.
I mean, she is just one of the more high
profile naturalists. I guess you could say, I'd say the
most high profile.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
That's sure. I would argue that too, it could.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Apparently San Francisco has long been a haven for dog lovers,
and now people are saying that there are some taking
advantage of the situation, exploiting the city's tolerance. That pause
are up on the counters of coffee shops and no
one flinches. Croissants are being stolen out of the hands
(27:56):
of hungry diners by hungry or black labss of Target
and Trader Joe's are full of service animals, service animals.
How San Francisco is this like you can shoot up
on battery and nobody looks, but you steal a cryssant.
(28:18):
Your dog steals her croissant at the overpriced coffee shop,
and oh, throw the book at them.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
Chandra moved to San Francisco in part of in part
because of how much San Francisco was known for loving dogs.
She's a biotech worker. She's the owner of Clementine a
Docs and with sixty four thousand Instagram followers, My dog
does not have that many Instagram followers.
Speaker 4 (28:40):
I feel like, she.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Says she takes Clementine everywhere she's permitted, restaurant's, clothing boutiques.
I kind of feel like, and I don't know, because
I'm not a dog owner, but you kind of got
to follow the rule of just because you can, doesn't
mean you should take your dog to every single place.
I mean, I remember we were at a restaurant. I
don't remember where we were, but there was a dog.
(29:03):
It was a like a nice restaurant, and there was
a dog just perched on the seat at the table
next to us, just sitting there.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
Were you was the dog moood doing anything, making noise,
causing problems?
Speaker 1 (29:18):
No, but you pay a certain amount of money to
go out and have a nice meal. You don't want
to be eating, you know, with somebody else's dog right there.
You're constantly wearing is a dog going to jump up
and eat my prime rib?
Speaker 3 (29:30):
Like? What's going to happen here, not that I would
do that. I don't order prime red, wow, I don't.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
But it was kind of like that kind of a
place like house, the prime rib type of a place,
and there's a dog sitting there, and it's like, it's
just it's uncivilized. Frankly, I eat dog.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
I eat dogs. Sorry, I'm in the need that isolated.
I eat dog. I eat almost every day with a
dog in the room.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Yes, But if you were paying to go to a
meal with your wife, would you want to eat with
someone else's dog at your lap level?
Speaker 3 (30:05):
I do suppose. I do suppose.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
There are two things that would play into that. Number One,
it's not your own dog lap level.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
I don't need. I don't need the dog up on
the chair, right.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
It's one thing if the dog's at someone's feet and
it's a help or dog or whatever. Yeah, but sitting
at the table on a chair. Come on, listen, and
I'll say this.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
I love the idea of taking my dog places like
I'll take my dog to home depot or Low's or
something like that, because there's plenty of spaces. Even if
I do see another dog in the store or something
like that, there's plenty of opportunity for me to go
the other way, and there's no you know, there's no
tangling between the dogs. But if you have a dog
that's not very well behaved, or you're not certain of
(30:45):
how that dog would behave, you got to be really
careful about where you take that thing, because it's not
just you and whatever comfort or you want to show
off your dog. I get all that, but you better
be careful about what you do with that dog.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
Let me ask you this.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
I saw in the desert as out in Palm Springs
and we're at a hotel having dinner and there is
a couple, I want to say they were maybe thirty
years old, a good looking couple in at leisure where
fit looked like they had just been out for a
run maybe and that's why.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
But they had a dog in a stroller.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Now, the stroller probably costs more than well, certainly the
strollers that we were put in as a youth that
were all hand me downs and probably had no safety standards.
But this stroller looked like it went for the cost
of a Maserati like it was. You can tell a
nice stroller when you see one, And inside was a
dog and I'm thinking, maybe this dog has two legs,
(31:39):
Maybe this dog's got three legs.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
Maybe this dog's an issue.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
They take the dog out of the stroller, the dog
runs around, it's a small dog, it's got all the legs,
and then it hops back in its stroller and off
they go. I understand a stroller for a dog if
it's somebody who needs a new hip that has a dog,
or the dog needs a new hip. But where do
(32:02):
you come down on people putting their dogs in high
end strollers just because.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Well, I will say this, it sounds like those people
are very active and sometimes small dogs cannot keep up with, right,
So maybe they had just gone for a run. Yeah, Hey,
maybe you get a different dog. If that's your lifestyle
and that's what you're gonna do, and you're going to
run five miles a day and you want your dog
to run with you, get a dog that will do that.
Don't buy one that has to be in a stroller
(32:29):
with you.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
That I can't with stroller.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Although it didn't seem like they had been for a run,
I mean it was the heat of the day in
Palm Springs. I think that they just use that stroller
all the time.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
With that dog. It's not the first time I've seen
people with the stroller on the dog. Dogs are generally lazy.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
We think of them as they lay around all the time,
but dogs need physical actay love it.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
We lay around all the time if we could, but
our bodies actually like to move.
Speaker 3 (32:57):
Well, speak for yourself. Mine is that it's.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Fighting back the body fight. You are all buttoned up today,
You're keeping the whole.
Speaker 3 (33:07):
I'm cold.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
It is so flipping cold in here all the time.
I wore a shirt yesterday, but I didn't wear a
jacket or a sweatshirt over the top of it.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
I was cold all day, all day.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Yeah, you should leave a jacket in the office. I've
got a couple in there you could wear all thank you.
I have that Pink Ladies one from Halloween a couple
of years ago from Greece.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
I'm sure that would look great on me. We'll talk
trending when we come back to Gary and Shannon. You've
been listening to The Gary and Shannon Show.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
You can always hear us live on KFI AM six
forty nine am to one pm every Monday through Friday,

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
