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. I mean, when Fred Rogan's here,
it's a special occasion. Follow kids, It's like we need
a bottle of dom or something, because it's always a
special occasion.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
You want to know what's weird? You bring that up? Yeah,
so I did dry January?
Speaker 3 (00:18):
So did I?
Speaker 4 (00:19):
Okay, So here's the deal.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
I thought I'm going to do dry January just to
see because you know, I mean, Shannon, Gary, you know,
I think if need be, we can all toss a
couple of back.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
Don't not the wrong way?
Speaker 5 (00:31):
Give me nineteen okay.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
So you know I wasn't opposed to toss on a
few back here and there, like all the time. So
I said I'm going to stop and dry January.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
I stopped.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
Yeah, hit February.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
You know what. Okay, I've made it. I don't really
miss it.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Yeah me too, but I think it'll be fun to
have one now and see how I feel.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
You went crazy. Not only did I not go crazy,
I wound up naked in the desert.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
I do that without drinking, right. But the next day,
I felt awful.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
It was like I stopped and then I thought, well, yeah,
because I could drink, I stopped and then I went,
oh my god, I feel terrible.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
Yeah, so I don't think I can drink.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
I've heard about this happening.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
You know what's funny is when I did Dry January,
I remembered a conversation that we had, probably we were
in the other studio. It had to have been six
seven years, I don't know, a long time ago when
you first started working here maybe, and you said you
did dry January.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
And to me, that was like what a hole?
Speaker 1 (01:26):
You did?
Speaker 3 (01:27):
What? And you were like, and I.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Asked you five hundred questions because I know you and
I we like our cocktails.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
And you said something.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Like, well, I just I had to stop drinking for
a month because I know I was drinking a lot.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
I had to stop. And I was like, huh.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
And as I was going into doing this Dry January,
I was like, Fred Rogan did it.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
I can do it.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
But then I could come back and that wasn't a problem.
Now it's a whole new ball game.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
It's so odd interesting. Yeah, I mean it really affects, well.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
You look great, your skin looks great.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
Well, you know, thank you, I'm not drinking.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
I didn't do it, rolled it over.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Oh oh please hand to God. As my dead father
would say.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
We're in March.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
I know you still have it, and then became a
length Listen I can I can confirm because this one
for years has been getting wine deliveries to the office
here simply because there's someone here always to sign for it.
You have to be over twenty one to sign for it.
And if you do it at home while she's at work,
her husband's at work, they're not going to deliver it
to right right, there are two fult boxes of wine
(02:32):
sitting in our office that she has not asked me
to carry down to the to her car as we leave.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
Yeah, well, and I gave them the Keana because she
likes bubbles.
Speaker 5 (02:41):
So can you help me take I'll take them to
your car today.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
They're friends, like they're gone.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
I was going to say, well, if you really want
to get rid of them your god, Yeah, no problem.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
It's wild, though, how good you feel like it's you
do feel differently?
Speaker 3 (02:57):
It's weird.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, but you know the other thing, I felt exhausted. Yeah,
the less I drank, the more exhausted, I felt. Yeah,
so I don't understand that either contribute.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
That's why I'm napping.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
Did you Are you hyper aware of like blood tests
results and all that sort of stuff, like your numbers
and measurement all I just went and better.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Yeah, dude, mine were scary.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Let me ask you something.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Was there ever a point after you'd get those numbers
you thought I'm one test away from a liver transpoint exactly?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
I was like, this is ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
When you see it like facts on paper, You're like, Okay,
this is ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
I mean yeah, I never got to that point, thankfully.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
But nobody ever says anything though, Like the doctors don't
say anything. Well mine didn't. They were that's me looking
at my own. But I'm a hypochondriac.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
I do this.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
I look at blood work and I see something that
that's not even a big deal. Yeah, and then I
have to call his wife and I'm like, am I dying?
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Should I go in?
Speaker 6 (03:54):
Now?
Speaker 4 (03:54):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I had back pain one time, Fred and I went
to urgent care thinking I was in late stage kidney failure.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Really, yeah, so this is not your story. She was terrified.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Yeah, so my liver was probably fine.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
All right.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
So years ago, years ago, I go to the doctor
and I got a blood test.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
This is many years ago. ER was still on NBC.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
So I go to the doctor, I get the blood test,
not reruns, no, the original, and he says, look, there's
a problem with the blood test. You know, there was
an irregularity. Just come on back next week and get
this thing tested. So I immediately think, oh my god.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
It's bad.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
So I'm sitting in the makeup room and I'm watching Er,
and a guy walks into the the er and he goes, yeah,
I just don't feel well, and they go, we're going
to run your blood work. And anyway, the guy during
the whole show's saying, I got to get out of here.
I got a lot to do, I got a life
to live, I got a business to run. And you're waiting,
and he's getting more agitated and more upset, and then
they finally walk in and they go, look, we've checked
(04:49):
your blood work and you have leukemia.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Oh god.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Right, I'm sitting there watching that, yeah, and I think
to myself, oh my god, that's what. Oh my god,
are you kidding me? I mean he told me there
was an irregularity with my blood work. It's now ten fifty.
I call him at home. I called the doctor at home.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
So he picks up.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
He goes, what's the matter. Are you okay? I said, listen,
why can't you tell me the truth? Why won't you
tell me the truth? I'm getting ready to go on
at eleven o'clock, but I'm saying, why won't you tell
me the truth?
Speaker 4 (05:24):
And he goes about what I said? It right?
Speaker 2 (05:27):
I said about my blood work, and he goes, well,
there were some irregularities.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
It's not a big deal. Come in. I said, just
tell me I have leukemia.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
And he goes, if you have leukemia, you're gonna die
a very long and painful death.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
You don't have leukemia. Why would you think that?
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Because I'm a hypochondriac and I watched the other they
had it.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Yeah, see, I'm not that bad.
Speaker 5 (05:51):
That's bad. It's very bad.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
I swear to God. I called him. I went, this
is awful. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
So I'm sitting at home one day. Back is killing
me right, and I'm thinking, oh no. So I look
up online and I think my heart, it's affecting my back.
So I go in immediately, I go listen, I'm having
severe back pain and I need a battery of tests.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
I need every test you've.
Speaker 5 (06:18):
Got, head to toe.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
I don't care.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
This is all true, so good and wait, can I
go back to the leukemia testing?
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Yes, because this was the worst.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
So I go in after I told the guy I
had leukemia, and he goes, okay, well, look, we're going
to check your intestines or something. I don't know what
he's going to do, and he goes, you want this,
so we're going to test you. He lays me down
on my side and he pulls something out the length
of a garden hose, a garden hose with a nozzle,
(06:53):
and he goes, now.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
Pull over.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
He says, lean over, because I'm going to give you
this test, and it's a test you want, and since
you called me at ten point fifty at night, I
gotta be honest with you.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
I'm going to enjoy this a lot.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
More than you are.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
And he took that garden hose.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
I thought it was going to come up my throat
and I went all the good Lord, there was no
garden hose.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
He said, just a little longer. I want to make
sure I'm getting a good look.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I said, Okay, I'm fine, I'm fine. Yeah, so I
do have some issues being a hypochondriac. Guess that's great,
My god, that's great. It's like looking into a mirror.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
Do you have opinions about the Eagles who you don't know?
Speaker 4 (07:49):
Okay, can I tell you something? Uh? Oh no, no, no,
because I do this news show out in the Desert,
the Rogan Report. Yeah, yeah, you know. We snuff out corruption.
That's what we do, right.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I could tell you guys' stories and you would laugh
for hours about the stuff that goes on. But the
Eagles are at the end of our six o'clock news
leading it on my show every night, and everybody becomes
thrilled with the Eagles and the Eggs and Big Bear.
And I thought back to the days I worked at
Channel four and I would sit there and watch this
(08:21):
every night and see everybody get so emotional and just
so excited, And I thought, what the hell is this
enough with the Eagles. I mean, it is constant, it's
constant there. I'm sure it's constant here. Every year it's
the Eggs and the Eagles. I'm done with them.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Well, especially, no one's giving you any attention, and with
the leukemia and everything.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
I mean, listen, in.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
My physical condition, right, don't you think people should be
more concerned than about I mean, at any moment, and
we're worried about what you're watching online, Gary staring at
the snow and big Bear.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
There's a little bit of a narcissist thing that goes
on when people get a little jealous of the eagles
and you.
Speaker 5 (09:10):
Want you know what I'm going exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
I mean, I survived kidney failure for this.
Speaker 5 (09:20):
Oh great stuff.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
Can I tell you what now?
Speaker 5 (09:23):
I'm busy, You're okay, start thinking about it.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I got that diagnosis.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
No, I never got that.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
I turned away from giving blood because of my ane.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
They were afraid she's going to bleed out. No, it's fresh.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Well what is what is your blood type?
Speaker 2 (09:43):
I don't know that's gonna hurt yoursfuse her blood type
is thin, That's what.
Speaker 4 (09:51):
All right? Listen, this has been very exciting, but I
have to go lay down.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Somebody.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
We get a pillow for Frank.
Speaker 4 (09:57):
Please.
Speaker 6 (09:59):
You're listen thing to Gary and Shannon on Demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
We're late for swamp Watch. But why don't we do
a quick swamp watch. Okay, I'm not a politician, which
means I'm a cheat and a liar. And when I'm
not kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipops.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Here we got the real problem is that our leaders
are done. The other side never quits.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
So what I'm not going anywhere, So that now you
train the swap, I can imagine what can be and
be unburdened by what has been.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
You know, Americans have always been gone at President, They're
not stupid.
Speaker 5 (10:33):
A political plunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Whether people voted for you were not.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
Swamp watch, They're all counted on. President is going to
do an unusual speech today, At least the backdrop of
this speech is unusual when he's going to go to
the Department of Justice to lay out his vision for
the Department uh. The White House Press Secretary said Trump's
speech will be on ending the weaponization of justice against
Americans for their political leanings. I mentioned that it's rare.
(11:00):
Twenty fifteen was the last known public appearance by sitting
US president at DOJ paid tribute to Eric Holder, who
was leaving his job as AG. Before that, George w
voted in two thousand and one to formally change the
name of the building to honor RFK served as Attorney
General under the administration of his brother J. FK. Both
(11:24):
Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI's Director Cash Mattel are
expected to attend the speech at about noon today.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Stocks are hired today on Wall Street, so that's good news.
They've been tied to what's going on in Washington as
we kind of make our way through the mess that
is the tariff threats. It seems like each day this
week there was new news, a new item that was
being targeted. Yesterday was American whiskey versus French wine. But
(11:56):
it seems like things are good today when it comes
to Wall Street, with the Dow up more than five
hundred points at many times today, NASDAC up as well
SMP five hundred, clawing back a percentage point.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
The government shut down deadline of tonight looks like it
will come and go, and we should have a plan
in place. Chuck Schumer, who a couple of days ago
said he was going to advise Senate Democrats to vote
against it, has now changed his mind.
Speaker 7 (12:25):
The cr is a bad bill, but as bad as
the CR is, I believe allowing Donald Trump to take
even much more power via a government shutdown is a
far worse option.
Speaker 6 (12:39):
They can stay in a shutdown as long as they want.
There is no off ramp unless they decide to take
that off ramp, and they won't because this is their
best tool for achieving their goal. Slash government, slash spending.
Speaker 5 (12:54):
All right, go on, He goes on from one.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
You know what, we haven't spent any time on and
I want to continue to spend no time on it
except for this right now, because I saw that Mark
Kelly is ditching his Tesla because it's a rolling billboard
for Elon Musk. I want to spend zero time and
I want to take back the last thirty three point
one second zeh on people that are ditching their tesla's
(13:19):
because they don't agree with Trump and Elon Musk. The
whole I'm getting rid of a brand because of politics.
Thing is so juvenile to me and so ridiculous, and
to me, it's raising your hand and just saying.
Speaker 5 (13:32):
It's also, I know what you're it's also pretty what
luxurious and you have the ability to get rid of
your car and buy a new one because you don't
like something that that guy said.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Luxurious in the way you're speaking, and rich in the
way that you purport in one hand to totally care
about the universe and the environment, and you know sustainability
ten years ago in your car. I mean that to
me is the hypocrisy. You know, the people on the
left continually talk about the apocrisy on the right. Listen,
(14:08):
there's enough to go around for all, y'all, and it's gross.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
Do you want to do? I thought this would be
fun to do that Civics test. We were talking. We
were going to talk about this group of kids from
Orange County, this new Civics B.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
I didn't wake up with the goal to fail today,
but here we are.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
Let me bring it to you. Thank you, serve it
up on a platter. You're listening to Gary and Shannon
on demand from KFI AM six forty. Big congratulations to
Reagan Kammerer, who won the Orange County Civics B competition
held at the Nixon Presidential Library. She's an eighth grader
(14:47):
at St. Junipero Sarah Catholic School in Rancho Santa Margarita.
Second place went to Arlow James Fravian from Walton Intermediate
School in Orange and Kreshna Gopinatham from o Oxford Prep
in Lake Forest finished third. They all get to advance
on to the state finals. If they do well there,
they could go to the national finals. There are now forty.
(15:10):
California is one of forty states that participated in the
National Civics BE to try to encourage people to take
a more active role in civic engagement.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Is six is about government?
Speaker 5 (15:21):
And here we go. All right, I signed us up
for a practice test from the US Chamber Foundation dot org.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
I am a product of public schools for the most part.
Speaker 5 (15:30):
Not really, No, no, don't make excuses now, wait, wait
till we get the final score.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Very dumb.
Speaker 5 (15:36):
I signed both you and I up as the test.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Ta. Okay, so let's do it.
Speaker 5 (15:41):
I wrote my first name was Gary and this last
name was an Shannon.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Okay, got it, got it?
Speaker 5 (15:47):
Okay. First question, Yeah, which branch or branches of government
can declare war executive, judicial, legislative or any of the above.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Interesting. I would say just the executive, just the legislative.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
We need to come to an agreement.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Okay, Yeah, because you got to get that they can
be the executive's idea, but they've got it signed off
because that's the whole checks and balances thing.
Speaker 5 (16:10):
Congress, Oh, all right, How many senators does each state have?
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Two?
Speaker 5 (16:16):
Okay, that's an easy one. What do you think is
the difference between your two types of congressional representatives? And
you can choose more than one. For example, a a
representatives term is longer than a senator's term. No representatives
represent districts. Senators represent the entire state. Yes, representatives answer
(16:36):
to the governor. Senator's answer to the president. No representatives
are appointed by population, whereas every state has two senators? Correct? Okay,
so B and D correct?
Speaker 4 (16:51):
All right.
Speaker 5 (16:52):
The Supreme Court has how many justices?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
A lot?
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Nine? But it's sometimes they talk about having more right.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
And there's nothing in the Constitution we know that that
says it's got to be nine. Who signs a bill
into law? President, Congress, Supreme Court, Federal Court.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
That would be the president.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
That would be the president. What year did women get
the right to vote in the United States?
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Nineteen twenty something or a.
Speaker 5 (17:21):
Nineteen twenty seventeen seventy six, nineteen twenty, nineteen eighteen or
twenty nineteen twenty. To become a US citizen through naturalization,
you must be a lawful permanent resident for at least
how many years? Three, four, five, or ten ten? I
don't know the answer to that one. Which part of
(17:42):
our government regulates commerce? Congress, the Commerce Department, the President,
or the Department of Treasury.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
What was the first What were the first ones?
Speaker 5 (17:51):
Congress, Commerce Department, President or Treasury? And this is regulates regulates,
I would say Congress. Also say Congress, how many How
is an executive order overridden? Interesting? Typically overridden? Congress has
to approve executive orders, they often choose not to. Congress
(18:12):
vetos the order, the judicial branch must intervene, or the
next president overrides the order. What is the most typical.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Way, most typical way, I would say either judicial or
the next president, probably the next president.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
Okay, I'll go with that one. Does an executive order
immediately become a law?
Speaker 3 (18:31):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (18:32):
No, no, I'm going to say no, I'm going to
override you.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
There.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
I don't like it when our brains do different things.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
What year was the Constitution written? Seventeen? These are all
in the seventeen hundreds. Eighty thank you, eighty one, seventy
eight or seventy six.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Seventy six okay.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
But these are all that seventeenords about when the Constitution
was written.
Speaker 5 (18:53):
Which of the following is not one of the president's
responsibilities outlined by the Constitution? Not write and pass laws,
execute laws, nominate justices to the Supreme Court, service commander
in chief. What's the first? Which is not right? And
pass laws?
Speaker 3 (19:11):
That is not that?
Speaker 5 (19:12):
Yes? A okay. The fact that the president can issue
pardons without oversight is an example of A an executive order,
B checks and balances, C separation of powers or D
none of the above.
Speaker 8 (19:29):
Hm.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
My first thought is to go with A or B.
What was B again?
Speaker 5 (19:36):
Checks and balances?
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Yeah, I'd go with I don't know if that would
be a example of checks and balances.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
No, because there's no overset, right, I would say it's
none of the above. Okay, we'll find go with A.
Who is responsible for trying impeachment cases like calling witnesses,
the House, the Senate, the Supreme Court, or none of
the above.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
The House?
Speaker 5 (19:58):
Right, No, the Senate, that's where they try it. You
could be impeached by the House, but the impeachment I
thought it started.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
With the House.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
It's you they call for the impeachment.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Right, Well, that's misleading. That whole question is out of order.
Can an impeachment be appealed?
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Yes or no?
Speaker 3 (20:16):
Yes, everything can be appealed.
Speaker 5 (20:19):
You're all done? Ready to see the results. Here you go,
Uh make sure.
Speaker 8 (20:28):
Questions.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
It sounds like ten.
Speaker 5 (20:32):
Twenty No way? Was it? No way? Answer one is correct,
two is correct, three is correct, four is correct, five
six oh. To become a United States citizen inter naturalization,
you must be a lawful permanent residence for five years. Interesting,
(20:55):
that's one we missed, all right, Next one we got right,
got right, got right? The correct answer year was the
constitution written? We got that wrong, Yeah, seventeen eighty seven.
We became a country in seventy six. Right, So there's
two now, Oh god, God.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
We're dumb.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
I was going to say that first one we got
wrong is because of our white privilege. There's no excuse
for the other one.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
President can issue pardons, is an example of separation of powers.
We got that one wrong. Okay, everything else I was.
I was wobbling on that though. And the impeachment appeal
and impeachment cannot be appealed.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
I thought you said that I thought you answered correctly
on that one.
Speaker 5 (21:30):
I told you what I was going with. I put
your answer, why would you do?
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Please?
Speaker 5 (21:33):
We missed three out of fifteen. We would not make
it in the Civics.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Be no, we would not, And now we feel like
a failure.
Speaker 5 (21:42):
And on a Friday, you're listening to Gary and Shannon
on demand from KFI Am six forty.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
Would you like your Jeopardy questions?
Speaker 5 (21:51):
Now that we know that we don't know anything about
the Civics, Well, we got three wrong.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
We should not have gotten that Constitution one wrong, and
so that was stupid.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
I'm really upset about that one.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
In fact, I think we should dedicate our weekend to
learning about this country because as an American, sorry, that's
the wrong music. As an American, we should know when
the freaking constitution was written. Obviously, we know we landed
here and the country is founded in seventeen seventy six,
(22:27):
But who were we to think that so much would
get accomplished in that first year.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
It's idiots. Idiots think that way.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
People who were raised under roofs and given food they
didn't have to forage for. We didn't have to wait
on our parents to bring home a duck for them
to peck at.
Speaker 5 (22:48):
Yeah, with our siblings somewhere. We are spoiled.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
We are spoiled, We are pampered.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
And the fact that we don't know when the Constitution
was written makes me ashamed to call us.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Dare I say Americans?
Speaker 5 (23:02):
Dare I say Americans?
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Americans?
Speaker 4 (23:06):
We're underdog we're mutts.
Speaker 8 (23:09):
Here's proof, noses cold. But there's no animal that's more faithful,
that's more loyal, more lovable than the mutt who saw
Old Yeller? Who cried when Old Yeller got shot?
Speaker 3 (23:26):
At you?
Speaker 8 (23:27):
Nobody cried when Old Yeller got shot. I'm sure I
cried my eyes out. So we're all dog faces. We're
all very, very different, but there is one thing that we.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
All have in common.
Speaker 8 (23:39):
We were all stupid enough to enlist in the army.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
We're mutants. There's something wrong with us, something very very
wrong with us.
Speaker 8 (23:51):
Something seriously wrong with us. We're soldiers, but we're American soldiers.
We've been kicking ass for two hundred and one.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
That's funny. It's stripes.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
Yes, yeah, one of our motivational Monday things on a Friday.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Okay, because we're bad Americans.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Your category for Jeopardy is going global for twelve hundred dollars.
In Malay the name of this capital city means muddy confluence.
Best to leave that out of the travel brochure. What
is Jakarta wrong? Not only are you a bad American,
(24:36):
you are a bad Malaysian.
Speaker 3 (24:39):
That's that's in Thailand. Yeah, so there's that.
Speaker 5 (24:42):
Okay, I'm just going out of cut Malaysia.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
Think about the missing plane.
Speaker 5 (24:49):
Yeah, Malaysia in the airlines.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Yeah, where did it move from?
Speaker 5 (24:55):
It wasn't Jakarta.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
Where did it?
Speaker 5 (24:57):
Where was it headed Malaysia? It was headed to China.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
You know, you're right.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
I may have my news events wrong. Kuala Lumpur is
what you're looking for?
Speaker 5 (25:05):
Excellent?
Speaker 3 (25:06):
Was that connected to that missing.
Speaker 5 (25:08):
I don't remember. I don't think it was qual Well.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
I almost just said Jesus's name.
Speaker 5 (25:13):
But can you imagine what this twelve o'clock hour is
going to look like?
Speaker 1 (25:17):
I can't just I haven't imagined any part of this
show looking like it has trending stories.

a bottle of dom or something, because it's always a
special occasion.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
You want to know what's weird? You bring that up? Yeah,
so I did dry January?
Speaker 3 (00:18):
So did I?
Speaker 4 (00:19):
Okay, So here's the deal.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
I thought I'm going to do dry January just to
see because you know, I mean, Shannon, Gary, you know,
I think if need be, we can all toss a
couple of back.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
Don't not the wrong way?
Speaker 5 (00:31):
Give me nineteen okay.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
So you know I wasn't opposed to toss on a
few back here and there, like all the time. So
I said I'm going to stop and dry January.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
I stopped.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
Yeah, hit February.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
You know what. Okay, I've made it. I don't really
miss it.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Yeah me too, but I think it'll be fun to
have one now and see how I feel.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
You went crazy. Not only did I not go crazy,
I wound up naked in the desert.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
I do that without drinking, right. But the next day,
I felt awful.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
It was like I stopped and then I thought, well, yeah,
because I could drink, I stopped and then I went,
oh my god, I feel terrible.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
Yeah, so I don't think I can drink.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
I've heard about this happening.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
You know what's funny is when I did Dry January,
I remembered a conversation that we had, probably we were
in the other studio. It had to have been six
seven years, I don't know, a long time ago when
you first started working here maybe, and you said you
did dry January.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
And to me, that was like what a hole?
Speaker 1 (01:26):
You did?
Speaker 3 (01:27):
What? And you were like, and I.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Asked you five hundred questions because I know you and
I we like our cocktails.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
And you said something.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Like, well, I just I had to stop drinking for
a month because I know I was drinking a lot.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
I had to stop. And I was like, huh.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
And as I was going into doing this Dry January,
I was like, Fred Rogan did it.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
I can do it.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
But then I could come back and that wasn't a problem.
Now it's a whole new ball game.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
It's so odd interesting. Yeah, I mean it really affects, well.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
You look great, your skin looks great.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
Well, you know, thank you, I'm not drinking.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
I didn't do it, rolled it over.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Oh oh please hand to God. As my dead father
would say.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
We're in March.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
I know you still have it, and then became a
length Listen I can I can confirm because this one
for years has been getting wine deliveries to the office
here simply because there's someone here always to sign for it.
You have to be over twenty one to sign for it.
And if you do it at home while she's at work,
her husband's at work, they're not going to deliver it
to right right, there are two fult boxes of wine
(02:32):
sitting in our office that she has not asked me
to carry down to the to her car as we leave.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
Yeah, well, and I gave them the Keana because she
likes bubbles.
Speaker 5 (02:41):
So can you help me take I'll take them to
your car today.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
They're friends, like they're gone.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
I was going to say, well, if you really want
to get rid of them your god, Yeah, no problem.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
It's wild, though, how good you feel like it's you
do feel differently?
Speaker 3 (02:57):
It's weird.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, but you know the other thing, I felt exhausted. Yeah,
the less I drank, the more exhausted, I felt. Yeah,
so I don't understand that either contribute.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
That's why I'm napping.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
Did you Are you hyper aware of like blood tests
results and all that sort of stuff, like your numbers
and measurement all I just went and better.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Yeah, dude, mine were scary.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Let me ask you something.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Was there ever a point after you'd get those numbers
you thought I'm one test away from a liver transpoint exactly?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
I was like, this is ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
When you see it like facts on paper, You're like, Okay,
this is ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
I mean yeah, I never got to that point, thankfully.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
But nobody ever says anything though, Like the doctors don't
say anything. Well mine didn't. They were that's me looking
at my own. But I'm a hypochondriac.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
I do this.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
I look at blood work and I see something that
that's not even a big deal. Yeah, and then I
have to call his wife and I'm like, am I dying?
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Should I go in?
Speaker 6 (03:54):
Now?
Speaker 4 (03:54):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
I had back pain one time, Fred and I went
to urgent care thinking I was in late stage kidney failure.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Really, yeah, so this is not your story. She was terrified.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Yeah, so my liver was probably fine.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
All right.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
So years ago, years ago, I go to the doctor
and I got a blood test.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
This is many years ago. ER was still on NBC.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
So I go to the doctor, I get the blood test,
not reruns, no, the original, and he says, look, there's
a problem with the blood test. You know, there was
an irregularity. Just come on back next week and get
this thing tested. So I immediately think, oh my god.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
It's bad.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
So I'm sitting in the makeup room and I'm watching Er,
and a guy walks into the the er and he goes, yeah,
I just don't feel well, and they go, we're going
to run your blood work. And anyway, the guy during
the whole show's saying, I got to get out of here.
I got a lot to do, I got a life
to live, I got a business to run. And you're waiting,
and he's getting more agitated and more upset, and then
they finally walk in and they go, look, we've checked
(04:49):
your blood work and you have leukemia.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Oh god.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Right, I'm sitting there watching that, yeah, and I think
to myself, oh my god, that's what. Oh my god,
are you kidding me? I mean he told me there
was an irregularity with my blood work. It's now ten fifty.
I call him at home. I called the doctor at home.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
So he picks up.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
He goes, what's the matter. Are you okay? I said, listen,
why can't you tell me the truth? Why won't you
tell me the truth? I'm getting ready to go on
at eleven o'clock, but I'm saying, why won't you tell
me the truth?
Speaker 4 (05:24):
And he goes about what I said? It right?
Speaker 2 (05:27):
I said about my blood work, and he goes, well,
there were some irregularities.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
It's not a big deal. Come in. I said, just
tell me I have leukemia.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
And he goes, if you have leukemia, you're gonna die
a very long and painful death.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
You don't have leukemia. Why would you think that?
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Because I'm a hypochondriac and I watched the other they
had it.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Yeah, see, I'm not that bad.
Speaker 5 (05:51):
That's bad. It's very bad.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
I swear to God. I called him. I went, this
is awful. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
So I'm sitting at home one day. Back is killing
me right, and I'm thinking, oh no. So I look
up online and I think my heart, it's affecting my back.
So I go in immediately, I go listen, I'm having
severe back pain and I need a battery of tests.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
I need every test you've.
Speaker 5 (06:18):
Got, head to toe.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
I don't care.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
This is all true, so good and wait, can I
go back to the leukemia testing?
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Yes, because this was the worst.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
So I go in after I told the guy I
had leukemia, and he goes, okay, well, look, we're going
to check your intestines or something. I don't know what
he's going to do, and he goes, you want this,
so we're going to test you. He lays me down
on my side and he pulls something out the length
of a garden hose, a garden hose with a nozzle,
(06:53):
and he goes, now.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
Pull over.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
He says, lean over, because I'm going to give you
this test, and it's a test you want, and since
you called me at ten point fifty at night, I
gotta be honest with you.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
I'm going to enjoy this a lot.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
More than you are.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
And he took that garden hose.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
I thought it was going to come up my throat
and I went all the good Lord, there was no
garden hose.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
He said, just a little longer. I want to make
sure I'm getting a good look.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I said, Okay, I'm fine, I'm fine. Yeah, so I
do have some issues being a hypochondriac. Guess that's great,
My god, that's great. It's like looking into a mirror.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
Do you have opinions about the Eagles who you don't know?
Speaker 4 (07:49):
Okay, can I tell you something? Uh? Oh no, no, no,
because I do this news show out in the Desert,
the Rogan Report. Yeah, yeah, you know. We snuff out corruption.
That's what we do, right.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I could tell you guys' stories and you would laugh
for hours about the stuff that goes on. But the
Eagles are at the end of our six o'clock news
leading it on my show every night, and everybody becomes
thrilled with the Eagles and the Eggs and Big Bear.
And I thought back to the days I worked at
Channel four and I would sit there and watch this
(08:21):
every night and see everybody get so emotional and just
so excited, And I thought, what the hell is this
enough with the Eagles. I mean, it is constant, it's
constant there. I'm sure it's constant here. Every year it's
the Eggs and the Eagles. I'm done with them.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Well, especially, no one's giving you any attention, and with
the leukemia and everything.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
I mean, listen, in.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
My physical condition, right, don't you think people should be
more concerned than about I mean, at any moment, and
we're worried about what you're watching online, Gary staring at
the snow and big Bear.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
There's a little bit of a narcissist thing that goes
on when people get a little jealous of the eagles
and you.
Speaker 5 (09:10):
Want you know what I'm going exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
I mean, I survived kidney failure for this.
Speaker 5 (09:20):
Oh great stuff.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
Can I tell you what now?
Speaker 5 (09:23):
I'm busy, You're okay, start thinking about it.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I got that diagnosis.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
No, I never got that.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
I turned away from giving blood because of my ane.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
They were afraid she's going to bleed out. No, it's fresh.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Well what is what is your blood type?
Speaker 2 (09:43):
I don't know that's gonna hurt yoursfuse her blood type
is thin, That's what.
Speaker 4 (09:51):
All right? Listen, this has been very exciting, but I
have to go lay down.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Somebody.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
We get a pillow for Frank.
Speaker 4 (09:57):
Please.
Speaker 6 (09:59):
You're listen thing to Gary and Shannon on Demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
We're late for swamp Watch. But why don't we do
a quick swamp watch. Okay, I'm not a politician, which
means I'm a cheat and a liar. And when I'm
not kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipops.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Here we got the real problem is that our leaders
are done. The other side never quits.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
So what I'm not going anywhere, So that now you
train the swap, I can imagine what can be and
be unburdened by what has been.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
You know, Americans have always been gone at President, They're
not stupid.
Speaker 5 (10:33):
A political plunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Whether people voted for you were not.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
Swamp watch, They're all counted on. President is going to
do an unusual speech today, At least the backdrop of
this speech is unusual when he's going to go to
the Department of Justice to lay out his vision for
the Department uh. The White House Press Secretary said Trump's
speech will be on ending the weaponization of justice against
Americans for their political leanings. I mentioned that it's rare.
(11:00):
Twenty fifteen was the last known public appearance by sitting
US president at DOJ paid tribute to Eric Holder, who
was leaving his job as AG. Before that, George w
voted in two thousand and one to formally change the
name of the building to honor RFK served as Attorney
General under the administration of his brother J. FK. Both
(11:24):
Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI's Director Cash Mattel are
expected to attend the speech at about noon today.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Stocks are hired today on Wall Street, so that's good news.
They've been tied to what's going on in Washington as
we kind of make our way through the mess that
is the tariff threats. It seems like each day this
week there was new news, a new item that was
being targeted. Yesterday was American whiskey versus French wine. But
(11:56):
it seems like things are good today when it comes
to Wall Street, with the Dow up more than five
hundred points at many times today, NASDAC up as well
SMP five hundred, clawing back a percentage point.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
The government shut down deadline of tonight looks like it
will come and go, and we should have a plan
in place. Chuck Schumer, who a couple of days ago
said he was going to advise Senate Democrats to vote
against it, has now changed his mind.
Speaker 7 (12:25):
The cr is a bad bill, but as bad as
the CR is, I believe allowing Donald Trump to take
even much more power via a government shutdown is a
far worse option.
Speaker 6 (12:39):
They can stay in a shutdown as long as they want.
There is no off ramp unless they decide to take
that off ramp, and they won't because this is their
best tool for achieving their goal. Slash government, slash spending.
Speaker 5 (12:54):
All right, go on, He goes on from one.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
You know what, we haven't spent any time on and
I want to continue to spend no time on it
except for this right now, because I saw that Mark
Kelly is ditching his Tesla because it's a rolling billboard
for Elon Musk. I want to spend zero time and
I want to take back the last thirty three point
one second zeh on people that are ditching their tesla's
(13:19):
because they don't agree with Trump and Elon Musk. The
whole I'm getting rid of a brand because of politics.
Thing is so juvenile to me and so ridiculous, and
to me, it's raising your hand and just saying.
Speaker 5 (13:32):
It's also, I know what you're it's also pretty what
luxurious and you have the ability to get rid of
your car and buy a new one because you don't
like something that that guy said.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Luxurious in the way you're speaking, and rich in the
way that you purport in one hand to totally care
about the universe and the environment, and you know sustainability
ten years ago in your car. I mean that to
me is the hypocrisy. You know, the people on the
left continually talk about the apocrisy on the right. Listen,
(14:08):
there's enough to go around for all, y'all, and it's gross.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
Do you want to do? I thought this would be
fun to do that Civics test. We were talking. We
were going to talk about this group of kids from
Orange County, this new Civics B.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
I didn't wake up with the goal to fail today,
but here we are.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
Let me bring it to you. Thank you, serve it
up on a platter. You're listening to Gary and Shannon
on demand from KFI AM six forty. Big congratulations to
Reagan Kammerer, who won the Orange County Civics B competition
held at the Nixon Presidential Library. She's an eighth grader
(14:47):
at St. Junipero Sarah Catholic School in Rancho Santa Margarita.
Second place went to Arlow James Fravian from Walton Intermediate
School in Orange and Kreshna Gopinatham from o Oxford Prep
in Lake Forest finished third. They all get to advance
on to the state finals. If they do well there,
they could go to the national finals. There are now forty.
(15:10):
California is one of forty states that participated in the
National Civics BE to try to encourage people to take
a more active role in civic engagement.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
Is six is about government?
Speaker 5 (15:21):
And here we go. All right, I signed us up
for a practice test from the US Chamber Foundation dot org.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
I am a product of public schools for the most part.
Speaker 5 (15:30):
Not really, No, no, don't make excuses now, wait, wait
till we get the final score.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Very dumb.
Speaker 5 (15:36):
I signed both you and I up as the test.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Ta. Okay, so let's do it.
Speaker 5 (15:41):
I wrote my first name was Gary and this last
name was an Shannon.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Okay, got it, got it?
Speaker 5 (15:47):
Okay. First question, Yeah, which branch or branches of government
can declare war executive, judicial, legislative or any of the above.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Interesting. I would say just the executive, just the legislative.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
We need to come to an agreement.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Okay, Yeah, because you got to get that they can
be the executive's idea, but they've got it signed off
because that's the whole checks and balances thing.
Speaker 5 (16:10):
Congress, Oh, all right, How many senators does each state have?
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Two?
Speaker 5 (16:16):
Okay, that's an easy one. What do you think is
the difference between your two types of congressional representatives? And
you can choose more than one. For example, a a
representatives term is longer than a senator's term. No representatives
represent districts. Senators represent the entire state. Yes, representatives answer
(16:36):
to the governor. Senator's answer to the president. No representatives
are appointed by population, whereas every state has two senators? Correct? Okay,
so B and D correct?
Speaker 4 (16:51):
All right.
Speaker 5 (16:52):
The Supreme Court has how many justices?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
A lot?
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Nine? But it's sometimes they talk about having more right.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
And there's nothing in the Constitution we know that that
says it's got to be nine. Who signs a bill
into law? President, Congress, Supreme Court, Federal Court.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
That would be the president.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
That would be the president. What year did women get
the right to vote in the United States?
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Nineteen twenty something or a.
Speaker 5 (17:21):
Nineteen twenty seventeen seventy six, nineteen twenty, nineteen eighteen or
twenty nineteen twenty. To become a US citizen through naturalization,
you must be a lawful permanent resident for at least
how many years? Three, four, five, or ten ten? I
don't know the answer to that one. Which part of
(17:42):
our government regulates commerce? Congress, the Commerce Department, the President,
or the Department of Treasury.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
What was the first What were the first ones?
Speaker 5 (17:51):
Congress, Commerce Department, President or Treasury? And this is regulates regulates,
I would say Congress. Also say Congress, how many How
is an executive order overridden? Interesting? Typically overridden? Congress has
to approve executive orders, they often choose not to. Congress
(18:12):
vetos the order, the judicial branch must intervene, or the
next president overrides the order. What is the most typical.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Way, most typical way, I would say either judicial or
the next president, probably the next president.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
Okay, I'll go with that one. Does an executive order
immediately become a law?
Speaker 3 (18:31):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (18:32):
No, no, I'm going to say no, I'm going to
override you.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
There.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
I don't like it when our brains do different things.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
What year was the Constitution written? Seventeen? These are all
in the seventeen hundreds. Eighty thank you, eighty one, seventy
eight or seventy six.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Seventy six okay.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
But these are all that seventeenords about when the Constitution
was written.
Speaker 5 (18:53):
Which of the following is not one of the president's
responsibilities outlined by the Constitution? Not write and pass laws,
execute laws, nominate justices to the Supreme Court, service commander
in chief. What's the first? Which is not right? And
pass laws?
Speaker 3 (19:11):
That is not that?
Speaker 5 (19:12):
Yes? A okay. The fact that the president can issue
pardons without oversight is an example of A an executive order,
B checks and balances, C separation of powers or D
none of the above.
Speaker 8 (19:29):
Hm.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
My first thought is to go with A or B.
What was B again?
Speaker 5 (19:36):
Checks and balances?
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Yeah, I'd go with I don't know if that would
be a example of checks and balances.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
No, because there's no overset, right, I would say it's
none of the above. Okay, we'll find go with A.
Who is responsible for trying impeachment cases like calling witnesses,
the House, the Senate, the Supreme Court, or none of
the above.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
The House?
Speaker 5 (19:58):
Right, No, the Senate, that's where they try it. You
could be impeached by the House, but the impeachment I
thought it started.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
With the House.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
It's you they call for the impeachment.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Right, Well, that's misleading. That whole question is out of order.
Can an impeachment be appealed?
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Yes or no?
Speaker 3 (20:16):
Yes, everything can be appealed.
Speaker 5 (20:19):
You're all done? Ready to see the results. Here you go,
Uh make sure.
Speaker 8 (20:28):
Questions.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
It sounds like ten.
Speaker 5 (20:32):
Twenty No way? Was it? No way? Answer one is correct,
two is correct, three is correct, four is correct, five
six oh. To become a United States citizen inter naturalization,
you must be a lawful permanent residence for five years. Interesting,
(20:55):
that's one we missed, all right, Next one we got right,
got right, got right? The correct answer year was the
constitution written? We got that wrong, Yeah, seventeen eighty seven.
We became a country in seventy six. Right, So there's
two now, Oh god, God.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
We're dumb.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
I was going to say that first one we got
wrong is because of our white privilege. There's no excuse
for the other one.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
President can issue pardons, is an example of separation of powers.
We got that one wrong. Okay, everything else I was.
I was wobbling on that though. And the impeachment appeal
and impeachment cannot be appealed.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
I thought you said that I thought you answered correctly
on that one.
Speaker 5 (21:30):
I told you what I was going with. I put
your answer, why would you do?
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Please?
Speaker 5 (21:33):
We missed three out of fifteen. We would not make
it in the Civics.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Be no, we would not, And now we feel like
a failure.
Speaker 5 (21:42):
And on a Friday, you're listening to Gary and Shannon
on demand from KFI Am six forty.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
Would you like your Jeopardy questions?
Speaker 5 (21:51):
Now that we know that we don't know anything about
the Civics, Well, we got three wrong.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
We should not have gotten that Constitution one wrong, and
so that was stupid.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
I'm really upset about that one.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
In fact, I think we should dedicate our weekend to
learning about this country because as an American, sorry, that's
the wrong music. As an American, we should know when
the freaking constitution was written. Obviously, we know we landed
here and the country is founded in seventeen seventy six,
(22:27):
But who were we to think that so much would
get accomplished in that first year.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
It's idiots. Idiots think that way.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
People who were raised under roofs and given food they
didn't have to forage for. We didn't have to wait
on our parents to bring home a duck for them
to peck at.
Speaker 5 (22:48):
Yeah, with our siblings somewhere. We are spoiled.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
We are spoiled, We are pampered.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
And the fact that we don't know when the Constitution
was written makes me ashamed to call us.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Dare I say Americans?
Speaker 5 (23:02):
Dare I say Americans?
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Americans?
Speaker 4 (23:06):
We're underdog we're mutts.
Speaker 8 (23:09):
Here's proof, noses cold. But there's no animal that's more faithful,
that's more loyal, more lovable than the mutt who saw
Old Yeller? Who cried when Old Yeller got shot?
Speaker 3 (23:26):
At you?
Speaker 8 (23:27):
Nobody cried when Old Yeller got shot. I'm sure I
cried my eyes out. So we're all dog faces. We're
all very, very different, but there is one thing that we.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
All have in common.
Speaker 8 (23:39):
We were all stupid enough to enlist in the army.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
We're mutants. There's something wrong with us, something very very
wrong with us.
Speaker 8 (23:51):
Something seriously wrong with us. We're soldiers, but we're American soldiers.
We've been kicking ass for two hundred and one.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
That's funny. It's stripes.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
Yes, yeah, one of our motivational Monday things on a Friday.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Okay, because we're bad Americans.

Speaker 5 (24:55):

Speaker 3 (24:56):
Where did it?
Speaker 5 (24:57):
Where was it headed Malaysia? It was headed to China.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
You know, you're right.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
