Speaker 2 (00:39):
I enjoyed it thoroughly. It was a lot of fun.
And this is the this is the one that's uh.
Glenn Powell.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
I believe Glenn Powell, who plays a fun pretender to
be other characters type of actor. He's done this a
couple of times.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Oh he has Oh yeah, I remember he was in
the movie where hy oh you mean you meant the
character in the show he plays a football player.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
He does a good job disguising himself as many different
to It's like Steve Martin trek okay, but he does
a great job, and it's just a fun watch. It's
a fun, easy watch. But let us know what you're watching.
Use a talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app and just
tap that microphone. Let us know what you are into
right now. I am also into The Diplomat. I'm only
(01:25):
on season one. I feel like it's still kind of
a dead time of shows right now. I feel like
I don't have anything with any sex in it. Did
I ask Gabra doesn't seem like she's been watching anything
with any sex in it.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Did we discuss if you have started the last or latest,
I should say, season of the Morning show on Apple TV,
The Jennifer Aniston Reese Witherspoon.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
I watched the trailer for the latest season and there
was a line in there that pretty much solidified that
I will not watch.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
This latest season.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Okay, it has gone too far into the pre chy land,
and I do not watch television to be preached to.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
I watch it for entertainment. Big election news, of course,
was New York City last night. It chose Zoron Mamdani
to be their next mayor. He'll be sworn in on
January first. Andrew Cuomo came in second. This campaign, which
reminds me was to.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Contest the philosophies that are shaping the Democratic Party, the
future of this city and the future of this country.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
When I heard him speaking, he reminded me of al Pacino.
Sy you right aborder, and I show you hout order.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
You don't know what out AUTI is, mister Trance, I'd
show you, but I'm too old, I'm too tired, I'm
too blind. If I were the man I was five
years ago, I take a flame flowing at this place.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
How dare you compare Andrew Cuomo to sentible woman al Pacino?
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Sacrilegie zacrilege.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Stocks are up on news that AI has rebounded from
valuation concerns that plagued the market earlier in the day,
and the Supreme Court's tough questions about Trump's tariffs have
raised hopes as well that some of the duties.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
May be rolled back.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
The Dow last time I looked was up about three hundred,
Nasdaq and S and P five hundred up as well.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
This is going to be a humongous fight, and listening
to some of those arguments today way over everybody's head,
because we're not all legal scholars like the people in
front of and the people sitting on the Supreme Court.
But they're talking about this case specifically about whether or
not the President is allowed to use the International Emergency
(03:41):
Economic Powers Act of nineteen seventy seven to unilaterally by himself.
That's what the word means, set tariffs on imports from
more than one hundred different trading partners. A bunch of
businesses have said the tariffs have forced them to raise
prices and cut staff. A bunch of states have been suing.
A surprising number of conservatives and libertarians and business groups
(04:05):
sent briefs to the court asking the Court to take
issue with the president's policy here. So one of the
big questions is whether or not the administration's tariff actions
go against what they refer to as the Major Questions doctrine.
The principle that boils down to this, if Congress wants
(04:27):
to give the president power to take up major economic
action like imposing tariffs, it has to say so. It
has to clearly state that. Chief Justice John Roberts said
during the argument that the doctrine seems to apply here.
There were some questions from the more conservative justices Neil Gorsich,
for example, that was questioning just that what kind of
(04:51):
power has Congress given to the president in this instance?
That's what I'm struggling and waiting for.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
What's the reason to accept the notion that Congress can
handle the power to declare war.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
To the president? Well, we don't contact that again, will
you do?
Speaker 5 (05:05):
You say it's unreviewable and there's no manageable standard, nothing
to be done.
Speaker 6 (05:08):
And now you're I think you tell me.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
If I'm wrong. You backed off that position. Maybe that's
fair to say, Okay, all right, I would be taking
an abdication. That really be an abdication, not a delegation.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
I'm delighted to hear that.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
You know, the people who laugh at jokes in the
Supreme Court are a different break.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
I've got another run, but I won't waste your time
with it. But it was described as a humorous back
and forth with regard to the non delegation doctrine.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Always Oh, I mean, there's the launch lines.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
All over the Royal Laffer, and I'm sure it is
if you are if you are well versed on constitutional law.
We are not, and I would make a wager that
most people listening are not either.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
One of the big issues though in terms of what's
going to happen with this is going to be okay
if the court says and Trump does not have the
power to unilaterally impose these tariffs, what do we do
with the tariff revenues to give him?
Speaker 6 (06:09):
In that?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Do you give it back? Is there a way to
give it back? One of the people who are challenging
the administration in this case acknowledge that that is a
difficult question, but seem to suggest that the court would
have different options and could reconcile that later. So, but
that is massive and the President, by the way, has
(06:31):
argued this is not solely an economic issue, that this
also has massive national security implications.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Well, and just businesses around the glober watching this thing.
The chief executive of Pandora, the jewelry company, said he
was paying close attention to all of this back and
forth because the tariffs are a big nuisance for his business.
Pandora makes all its jewelry and Thailand goods. They're sub
to a nineteen percent tariff, which is a major hit.
(07:03):
Despite the fact that Pandora marks up all those beautiful
charms you buy now that you know they're made in Thailand.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
You know that I didn't know that you've been mistling
my order.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Oh well, I don't want you to go without your charms.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Yesterday, awful video has come out of this ups plane
that crashed at the Louisville Airport. We'll talk about what
we know, what caused it, and why so many people
were killed in a cargo plane crash. That's coming up next.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Gary?
Speaker 2 (08:11):
What that letting you have it today? Sorry? No, no,
It is a British expression, but also came from a
thick accent that I wasn't ready for. I mean, I
don't know why, I know it's you, but I I'm
sorry that. Oliver say it with an American accent. Have
you ever tried that? They are letting you have it today?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Go I really it was awful. I never want to
hear that again. Gary, Why are you being so racist
today with Oliver?
Speaker 2 (08:38):
What does that mean? What do you mean? What does
that mean? You don't really know you're doing it, You
don't even know it. I'm not being racism, You're doing accentist.

and Oliver, when you find the HR office in this building,
you let me know, would you. Tragic story.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
I was in there once years ago. I think it
was something about Chris Little.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
And you filed.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Somebody filed a complaint, I think, and I was called in.
Maybe I was in the vicinity of the the you know,
the complaint or whatever happened to Warrant or allegedly Warrant
said complaint. Maybe I was in the area. Maybe I
was called in as a character witness. I don't know,
but I do know that they've closed off that part
(09:54):
of the building where that HR office once was.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
It exists. I don't think that office is around. A
shelter in place order actually was posted yesterday around Muhammad
Ali International Airport. I didn't know that was the name
of Louisville's airport, but there was a UPS cargo plane
that crashed just after takeoff.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
It was horrible for the families. There are no words
that I can provide to any family members that are
searching for information about someone that they believe might have
been near the scene of the crash that they haven't
heard from yet.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Mayor Craig Greenberg there of Louisville. So the first four
confirmed deaths were people who were not even on the
plane that they had crashed into buildings. Governor Andy Basheer
also gave an update.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
The plane hit two businesses, Kentucky Petroleum Recycling and Grade
A Auto Parts. Those employers are going through and making
sure they can locate all of their employees. There are
a lot of other massive employers very close. This was
very close to one of our largest board plants. This
was very close to our convention center which is about
(11:03):
to have a livestock show.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
So this is bad.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
It's really bad, but it could have been worse.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Lousville is the main air hub for UPS and the
largest air cargo pub called Worldport. There in Louisville, home
to UPS is thousands of employees. Package sorting operations there
were halted overnight. This thing was carrying thirty eight thousand
gallons of fuel on it.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
They've said, as the governor mentioned there, that this crashed
into businesses that there Nine people is the confirmed death
toll this morning, fifteen injured, but at least sixteen others
are still missing as of this morning.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
The pictures of the aftermath are vast. I mean, the
radius around this explosion was huge. Classes local school districts
and classes will be canceled today because of just biohazard
(12:05):
and still clean up of just a massive debris field.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
There. They de energized power lines in the area and
a nearby station in light of the crash, so several
people had their power cut off yesterday. They also isolated
a portion of their gas their natural gas system as well,
all because of the condition or the like you said,
the wide swath of destruction that happened after that plan.
(12:31):
Would you like your jeopardy question?
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I think I would, Okay?
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Annual events for one thousand dollars Christmas. This month was
first declared Autism Awareness Month in nineteen seventy. Today many
call it Autism Acceptance Month. I was surprised by the
nineteen seventy what is November April?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Duh? How do you need? Did you know that?
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I just hope somebody uses that talkback feature to go
after you about that.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
I didn't know, and I don't.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I didn't kidding. Nobody knows. See now you're all Now
you're being a shelter dog. A little you're a shelter dog.
Stop hitting me? Yeah, now he's shaky over there. Gary
and Shannon will continue be nice to Gary.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
How about that? Are you gonna adopt me?
Speaker 6 (13:22):
No?
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Okay, that's probably me. It's a little too close to home.
Speaker 6 (13:26):
Sorry, you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
It's official government shutdown has now become the longest in
US history, thirty six days now. I did see a
glimmer of hope this morning. The Hill was reporting that
there is a group of centrist Senate Democrats that have
been talking with their Democratic colleagues about a potential deal
(13:55):
to reopen the federal government within the next week or
week and a half, but they are getting pushed back.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
The centrist Democrats have no leverage, none at all anywhere,
but someone's got to move something.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Senators Jeene Shaheen out of New Hampshire Gary Peters out
of Michigan. Interestingly, both of them are about to retire,
have said that they have come up with an outline
for a deal. They're trying to whip more of their
colleagues to sign in. It's not clear yet whether they're
going to get enough additional votes to get anything actually done.
Speaker 6 (14:26):
Good morning, Gary and Shannon. Shannon.
Speaker 5 (14:28):
I think you got pulled into HR when you wrote
some questionable stuff on a dry erase board in like.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
The newsroom or something. I kind of remember something like that. Yep,
which time.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
No, No, I do a lot on that dry erase board.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
That was I think most recently it was the notes
that you left on former producers austrage tests.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Oh right, okay, So if you don't know the story here,
it is this was back when people worked here and
we had a number of people in the newsroom at
the time. At the newsroom at the time, young people,
new people to KFI News, new young people, very smart
and young and different generation that.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Don't have the same they were young.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Well I'm trying to find a way they didn't have
the same generational humor that existed when we were in
the newsroom.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
Good point.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
So Oscar was out there, his desk was in computer
cubicle area was near the newsroom. And I've known Oscar
for five hundred years and Oscar is one of our friends,
and we've worked close with Oscar for a number of years.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
And I before he got to work one day, littered his.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Monitor, his computer monitor with post its that said things
like Oscar sucks, You're literally the worst.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Go home. Nobody wants to hear like. I don't even
think there was profanity. There was no profanity.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
It was just like what you would do to your
buddy at work, right, like, here's post its.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
Remember this, you know, and I don't have to explain it,
y'all get it.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
But anyway, that was there were photos taken of his
monitor with the post its on it. They were submitted
not only to a manager at the time, but they
went up the chain to HR and the next manager,
and it was a whole.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Thing because they thought someone actually had thought it was
awful these people that were working.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
They thought, why would The line that I had heard
that got back to me was why would anybody ever
do this?
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Why would anybody ever do this?
Speaker 1 (16:38):
And I was like, wow, put me out to pasture,
because if you think that's.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Bad, you know what I mean, Like, come on, But.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
We got very quiet around here. We got very careful
after that. Oscar did return the favor, by the way.
He littered our office and I still have some of
the post its, like Shannon smells, you know, stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
He wrote, your show is the worst. We work in
a childish office, as we should, but we.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Should be able to behave like Tom Hanks and big
because that's what we get to do.
Speaker 6 (17:09):
Right.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Somebody didn't think that was good, No, And That's the
thing is they didn't even find humor in it.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Like no, no, But they also had no place like
they I guess they don't share that kind of humor
with their friends, but I do.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
You would enjoy that if I if I.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Talked s to you in the form of post it's
on your computer, Yes, you would find it endearing.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
You would feel that we were closer. After that. I
don't know what to happen. Well, yeah, wait, what is this?
We're doing something? I think we're doing something. We have
a Oh do you want to put this on your
calendar just so you show up? Be nice if we did. Yeah,
no'm we're doing our news in Bruce at Lugito or
Brewing I think in Gino Hills. What's that? This is
(17:53):
the event that they're doing the day after? Oh, but
that we're helping them kick off, and in fact, we
are going to have tickets for their Hops in the
Hills event. That's a great time. Hops in the Hills.
We are going to be there Friday doing the show
from the Luchador Brewing Company in Chino Hills. Will be
there from nine until one on Saturday. They're doing their
(18:15):
brewfest the Hops in the Hills and we're going to
be giving away tickets to go to that. They still
have tickets available as well for you to purchase in
a portion of those ticket sales are donated to the
Chino Valley Fire Foundation. That Hops in the Hills event
is going to have the red Hot Cholo Peppers you
heard me, unlimited beer tastings, a dunk tank, freebies, games, food,
(18:35):
retail vendors, all sorts of stuff. But again, we will
be at Luchidoor Brewing in Chino Hills next Friday, Friday,
November fourteen, fifteenth. I would also I think it's actually
the fourteenth. Yes, we'll be there, the fourteenth. Hops in
the Hills is the fifteenth, gotcha.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
I would also like you to talk about your adult
theater that is kicking off this weekend this weekend.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
The show is called It Happened on Fifth Avenue. Yes,
like the movie, but it's an adaptation by a couple
of a couple of I guess you would say Adapters
playwrights and I play Aloisious Team mckeevar, the homeless guy
who finds out that living in other people's homes when
(19:25):
they're away can be very profitable when it comes to friends.
We will make sure that we throw up all the
information on Instagram so you can purchase tickets, et cetera.
But it's this weekend seven eight nine and next weekend
fourteen fifteen sixty.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Are there any things you're worried about about the show?
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Any nerves? An there's a lot of food that can
cause problems. A couple of scenes where we're eating, oh yeah,
which can be if you don't time that right, you'll
choke right, So there's there's a little bit of concern
about that.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
That's weird when you have to act natural eating while
you're acting.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
And listen for someone else's line to queue your line.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Well, especially you get real focused on your food.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
I massively fogs. You're kind of tunnel vision roll back
like a shark, and.
Speaker 6 (20:16):
I just right.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
You got to remember you pretend you're a housewife, go
on like on the housewives shows on Peacock Now once
was Bravo. Uh, they have food brought to them. There
are scenes where they're supposed to be eating and they
kind of pick at things and they eat a little bit.
They're not actually eating. They never eat. There's food there,
(20:39):
but you should be more like that unless like a schnauzer.
A schnauzer, Is that right?
Speaker 2 (20:46):
That's a dog?
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Does that dog eat like it's it's real hungry, because
that's how you eat.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
I would say, a young a puppy eats like it's
never going to eat again.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Okay, less puppy, more housewife.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Okay, perfect, I'll see what. You don't have to eat
that food, you know what I mean? Uh, well, yeah,
I don't have to, but that's part.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
You know, you can have a bite and people get
it you're eating. Just don't get sidetracked. Don't get that
tunnel vision, because sometimes you don't even come up for air,
you know, you get set on a meal, and it's
good luck to everyone around you who's hoping to have
an ounce of attention because you're zeroed in on that.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
No conversation, nothing until it's over. Feed time is serious
time when we come back. Yeah, porn company's suing viewers.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Yeah, this is terrifying because if your company is watching
what you download and they've got the rights to that
and you've downloaded that, they're going to come after you.
And the fines are ridiculous, and they know exactly the
titles of things that you've been watching. I mean, do
(22:04):
you have secrets you'd like to keep secret? No, But
like I was going through this article in the Guardian
and if, like, if your wife came across an email
where you're getting sued and she looked at the title
some of these titles that are listening to article, there'd
be some questions.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
Something called tushy raw.
Speaker 6 (22:22):
Right, you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
A little bit more about, of course, the election results
from last night zoron Mom Donnie wins in New York City.
He'll take over as mayor coming up on the first
of January. Spanberger won the governor's seat in Virginia, first
woman elected governor there. Mickey Cheryl won in New Jersey
the governor's race as well. And our government shutdown now
(22:52):
officially the longest in US history thirty six days. There
was some discussion of some movements at least some of
the centrist Democrats in the Senate are trying to get
some of their colleagues to vote in favor of at
least reopening the government government. There was one other note politically.
(23:13):
Senator Alex Badia says he's not going to be running
for governor of the great State of California.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
So this is just a PSA. If you're into adult
theater at home, shall I say, different, kind of different,
kind of right, right, right, there is an adult theater
and adult movies. These are adult movies, right, thank you.
These are adult movies you watch on your own. And
that's where we'll leave it.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
Now.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
There's a company called Strike three that owns a couple
of these of these.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Porn companies.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Shall we just say that's an umbrella company, and it
is clogging US courts with lawsuits, mostly against people who
are purveyors of this movie type catalog. Who feels shamed
into settling privately. Let's introduce you to Tom Brown. Tom Brown's
seventy three. He's a retired police officer from Seattle. He
(24:07):
gets a letter from Comcast and it was a subpoena
from Comcast. He had been sued in federal court for
illegally downloading eighty movies. We won't go through the titles,
but one of them is he loved my big ass,
very embarrassing titles for Tom Brown to be hit with
(24:29):
this subpoena detailing Tom Brown by the way, like I said,
it was in the police department, spent decades investigating sex crimes.
He says he's never watched any of these videos. His
years of dealing with pimping, he wrote in the court filing,
left him with no interest in pornography. He'd been married
forty years. But the subpoena said he could face damages
of up to one hundred and fifty thousand dollars per movie,
(24:53):
as much as twelve million for all eighty films, and
if that he did not answer promptly, comcasts would identify
him to the plaintiff in a case. The company called
Strike three Holdings, the umbrella.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Company over the porn companies. Yeah, Strike three is not
something that he would recognize because it really deals specifically
with copyright law. It was formed just about ten years ago.
It owns the intellectual property rights to a catalog of
a couple thousand adult films, most of them made by
(25:25):
Vixen Media Group, very little online footprint, They don't really
have much going on. Started by a guy named Greg Lanski,
who he himself was a French porn director.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
So anyway, I mean, yeah, they're collecting millions in these
settlement fees because nobody wants these things to move beyond
a settlement because they don't want to be identified right
a mass litigation campaign one federal judge likened to a
high tech shakedown. Judges are furious at how many of
these cases Strike three, the.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Umbrella company or filing.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
These are cut and paste complaints, boilerplate discovery motions, flooding
courthouses with these lawsuits that they say are just smacking
of extortion. The sheer number of lawsuits to spawn a
massive industry of defense attorneys who are only dealing with
these cases.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Well, think about what that industry itself when the Internet
came along, was gutted because so much stuff showed up online,
free to get, free to access, free to send, free
to share, all of that stuff so people didn't have
to go and seek it out and pay for it
the way they used to. It's just really the only
(26:41):
way it seems like they're able to make any more
money going right forward is by shaking down their previous
users and saying, Okay, listen, we're going to see you
for either the twelve million or you settle with us
out of court.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Strike three is able to do this because they have
a proprietary software called VXN scan, which will track your
IP address if you're if you've downloaded porn that they own,
they can track you using your IP address and that's
where they find the location.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
That's where they send the subpoena. It is a mess.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
They want five finger set, five figure settlements, ten thousand
dollars or more.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
And you're scared if you're if you're the people to
get this letter, You're like, I don't want anybody know
what I'm into.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Hot tushy, right, I thought you're know your wife's I
thought you were into cold tushy. Why why suddenly are
you into hot tushy. Well, you didn't tell me you
liked hot tush. You told me you like cold tush. Well,
you just came to me and told me you like
hot tush and we could have worked something out. But
you're over there looking at cold tush without me.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
It's a whole thing old tush. I don't know. It
sounds like a soup of some kind, like a gospat show. H.
Speaker 1 (27:52):

do swamp watch when we come back.

I enjoyed it thoroughly. It was a lot of fun.
And this is the this is the one that's uh.
Glenn Powell.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
I believe Glenn Powell, who plays a fun pretender to
be other characters type of actor. He's done this a
couple of times.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Oh he has Oh yeah, I remember he was in
the movie where hy oh you mean you meant the
character in the show he plays a football player.
Speaker 1 (01:03):

Use a talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app and just

(01:25):
on season one. I feel like it's still kind of
a dead time of shows right now. I feel like
I don't have anything with any sex in it. Did
I ask Gabra doesn't seem like she's been watching anything
with any sex in it.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Did we discuss if you have started the last or latest,
I should say, season of the Morning show on Apple TV,
The Jennifer Aniston Reese Witherspoon.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
I watched the trailer for the latest season and there
was a line in there that pretty much solidified that
I will not watch.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
This latest season.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Okay, it has gone too far into the pre chy land,
and I do not watch television to be preached to.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
I watch it for entertainment. Big election news, of course,
was New York City last night. It chose Zoron Mamdani
to be their next mayor. He'll be sworn in on
January first. Andrew Cuomo came in second. This campaign, which
reminds me was to.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Contest the philosophies that are shaping the Democratic Party, the
future of this city and the future of this country.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
When I heard him speaking, he reminded me of al Pacino.
Sy you right aborder, and I show you hout order.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
You don't know what out AUTI is, mister Trance, I'd
show you, but I'm too old, I'm too tired, I'm
too blind. If I were the man I was five
years ago, I take a flame flowing at this place.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
How dare you compare Andrew Cuomo to sentible woman al Pacino?
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Sacrilegie zacrilege.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Stocks are up on news that AI has rebounded from
valuation concerns that plagued the market earlier in the day,
and the Supreme Court's tough questions about Trump's tariffs have
raised hopes as well that some of the duties.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
May be rolled back.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
The Dow last time I looked was up about three hundred,
Nasdaq and S and P five hundred up as well.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
This is going to be a humongous fight, and listening
to some of those arguments today way over everybody's head,
because we're not all legal scholars like the people in
front of and the people sitting on the Supreme Court.
But they're talking about this case specifically about whether or
not the President is allowed to use the International Emergency
(03:41):
Economic Powers Act of nineteen seventy seven to unilaterally by himself.
That's what the word means, set tariffs on imports from
more than one hundred different trading partners. A bunch of
businesses have said the tariffs have forced them to raise
prices and cut staff. A bunch of states have been suing.
A surprising number of conservatives and libertarians and business groups
(04:05):
sent briefs to the court asking the Court to take
issue with the president's policy here. So one of the
big questions is whether or not the administration's tariff actions
go against what they refer to as the Major Questions doctrine.
The principle that boils down to this, if Congress wants
(04:27):
to give the president power to take up major economic
action like imposing tariffs, it has to say so. It
has to clearly state that. Chief Justice John Roberts said
during the argument that the doctrine seems to apply here.
There were some questions from the more conservative justices Neil Gorsich,
for example, that was questioning just that what kind of
(04:51):
power has Congress given to the president in this instance?
That's what I'm struggling and waiting for.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
What's the reason to accept the notion that Congress can
handle the power to declare war.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
To the president? Well, we don't contact that again, will
you do?
Speaker 5 (05:05):
You say it's unreviewable and there's no manageable standard, nothing
to be done.
Speaker 6 (05:08):
And now you're I think you tell me.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
If I'm wrong. You backed off that position. Maybe that's
fair to say, Okay, all right, I would be taking
an abdication. That really be an abdication, not a delegation.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
I'm delighted to hear that.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
You know, the people who laugh at jokes in the
Supreme Court are a different break.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
I've got another run, but I won't waste your time
with it. But it was described as a humorous back
and forth with regard to the non delegation doctrine.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Always Oh, I mean, there's the launch lines.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
All over the Royal Laffer, and I'm sure it is
if you are if you are well versed on constitutional law.
We are not, and I would make a wager that
most people listening are not either.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
One of the big issues though in terms of what's
going to happen with this is going to be okay
if the court says and Trump does not have the
power to unilaterally impose these tariffs, what do we do
with the tariff revenues to give him?
Speaker 6 (06:09):
In that?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Do you give it back? Is there a way to
give it back? One of the people who are challenging
the administration in this case acknowledge that that is a
difficult question, but seem to suggest that the court would
have different options and could reconcile that later. So, but
that is massive and the President, by the way, has
(06:31):
argued this is not solely an economic issue, that this
also has massive national security implications.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Well, and just businesses around the glober watching this thing.
The chief executive of Pandora, the jewelry company, said he
was paying close attention to all of this back and
forth because the tariffs are a big nuisance for his business.
Pandora makes all its jewelry and Thailand goods. They're sub
to a nineteen percent tariff, which is a major hit.
(07:03):
Despite the fact that Pandora marks up all those beautiful
charms you buy now that you know they're made in Thailand.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
You know that I didn't know that you've been mistling
my order.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Oh well, I don't want you to go without your charms.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Yesterday, awful video has come out of this ups plane
that crashed at the Louisville Airport. We'll talk about what
we know, what caused it, and why so many people
were killed in a cargo plane crash. That's coming up next.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Gary?
Speaker 2 (08:11):
What that letting you have it today? Sorry? No, no,
It is a British expression, but also came from a
thick accent that I wasn't ready for. I mean, I
don't know why, I know it's you, but I I'm
sorry that. Oliver say it with an American accent. Have
you ever tried that? They are letting you have it today?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Go I really it was awful. I never want to
hear that again. Gary, Why are you being so racist
today with Oliver?
Speaker 2 (08:38):
What does that mean? What do you mean? What does
that mean? You don't really know you're doing it, You
don't even know it. I'm not being racism, You're doing accentist.
It was a joke. We have a chance for you

and Oliver, when you find the HR office in this building,
you let me know, would you. Tragic story.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
I was in there once years ago. I think it
was something about Chris Little.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
And you filed.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Somebody filed a complaint, I think, and I was called in.
Maybe I was in the vicinity of the the you know,
the complaint or whatever happened to Warrant or allegedly Warrant
said complaint. Maybe I was in the area. Maybe I
was called in as a character witness. I don't know,
but I do know that they've closed off that part
(09:54):
of the building where that HR office once was.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
It exists. I don't think that office is around. A
shelter in place order actually was posted yesterday around Muhammad
Ali International Airport. I didn't know that was the name
of Louisville's airport, but there was a UPS cargo plane
that crashed just after takeoff.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
It was horrible for the families. There are no words
that I can provide to any family members that are
searching for information about someone that they believe might have
been near the scene of the crash that they haven't
heard from yet.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Mayor Craig Greenberg there of Louisville. So the first four
confirmed deaths were people who were not even on the
plane that they had crashed into buildings. Governor Andy Basheer
also gave an update.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
The plane hit two businesses, Kentucky Petroleum Recycling and Grade
A Auto Parts. Those employers are going through and making
sure they can locate all of their employees. There are
a lot of other massive employers very close. This was
very close to one of our largest board plants. This
was very close to our convention center which is about
(11:03):
to have a livestock show.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
So this is bad.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
It's really bad, but it could have been worse.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Lousville is the main air hub for UPS and the
largest air cargo pub called Worldport. There in Louisville, home
to UPS is thousands of employees. Package sorting operations there
were halted overnight. This thing was carrying thirty eight thousand
gallons of fuel on it.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
They've said, as the governor mentioned there, that this crashed
into businesses that there Nine people is the confirmed death
toll this morning, fifteen injured, but at least sixteen others
are still missing as of this morning.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
The pictures of the aftermath are vast. I mean, the
radius around this explosion was huge. Classes local school districts
and classes will be canceled today because of just biohazard
(12:05):
and still clean up of just a massive debris field.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
There. They de energized power lines in the area and
a nearby station in light of the crash, so several
people had their power cut off yesterday. They also isolated
a portion of their gas their natural gas system as well,
all because of the condition or the like you said,
the wide swath of destruction that happened after that plan.
(12:31):
Would you like your jeopardy question?
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I think I would, Okay?
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Annual events for one thousand dollars Christmas. This month was
first declared Autism Awareness Month in nineteen seventy. Today many
call it Autism Acceptance Month. I was surprised by the
nineteen seventy what is November April?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Duh? How do you need? Did you know that?
Speaker 3 (13:00):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I just hope somebody uses that talkback feature to go
after you about that.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
I didn't know, and I don't.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I didn't kidding. Nobody knows. See now you're all Now
you're being a shelter dog. A little you're a shelter dog.
Stop hitting me? Yeah, now he's shaky over there. Gary
and Shannon will continue be nice to Gary.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
How about that? Are you gonna adopt me?
Speaker 6 (13:22):
No?
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Okay, that's probably me. It's a little too close to home.
Speaker 6 (13:26):
Sorry, you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
It's official government shutdown has now become the longest in
US history, thirty six days now. I did see a
glimmer of hope this morning. The Hill was reporting that
there is a group of centrist Senate Democrats that have
been talking with their Democratic colleagues about a potential deal
(13:55):
to reopen the federal government within the next week or
week and a half, but they are getting pushed back.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
The centrist Democrats have no leverage, none at all anywhere,
but someone's got to move something.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Senators Jeene Shaheen out of New Hampshire Gary Peters out
of Michigan. Interestingly, both of them are about to retire,
have said that they have come up with an outline
for a deal. They're trying to whip more of their
colleagues to sign in. It's not clear yet whether they're
going to get enough additional votes to get anything actually done.
Speaker 6 (14:26):
Good morning, Gary and Shannon. Shannon.
Speaker 5 (14:28):
I think you got pulled into HR when you wrote
some questionable stuff on a dry erase board in like.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
The newsroom or something. I kind of remember something like that. Yep,
which time.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
No, No, I do a lot on that dry erase board.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
That was I think most recently it was the notes
that you left on former producers austrage tests.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Oh right, okay, So if you don't know the story here,
it is this was back when people worked here and
we had a number of people in the newsroom at
the time. At the newsroom at the time, young people,
new people to KFI News, new young people, very smart
and young and different generation that.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Don't have the same they were young.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Well I'm trying to find a way they didn't have
the same generational humor that existed when we were in
the newsroom.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
Good point.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
So Oscar was out there, his desk was in computer
cubicle area was near the newsroom. And I've known Oscar
for five hundred years and Oscar is one of our friends,
and we've worked close with Oscar for a number of years.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
And I before he got to work one day, littered his.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Monitor, his computer monitor with post its that said things
like Oscar sucks, You're literally the worst.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Go home. Nobody wants to hear like. I don't even
think there was profanity. There was no profanity.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
It was just like what you would do to your
buddy at work, right, like, here's post its.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
Remember this, you know, and I don't have to explain it,
y'all get it.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
But anyway, that was there were photos taken of his
monitor with the post its on it. They were submitted
not only to a manager at the time, but they
went up the chain to HR and the next manager,
and it was a whole.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Thing because they thought someone actually had thought it was
awful these people that were working.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
They thought, why would The line that I had heard
that got back to me was why would anybody ever
do this?
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Why would anybody ever do this?
Speaker 1 (16:38):
And I was like, wow, put me out to pasture,
because if you think that's.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Bad, you know what I mean, Like, come on, But.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
We got very quiet around here. We got very careful
after that. Oscar did return the favor, by the way.
He littered our office and I still have some of
the post its, like Shannon smells, you know, stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
He wrote, your show is the worst. We work in
a childish office, as we should, but we.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Should be able to behave like Tom Hanks and big
because that's what we get to do.
Speaker 6 (17:09):
Right.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Somebody didn't think that was good, No, And That's the
thing is they didn't even find humor in it.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Like no, no, But they also had no place like
they I guess they don't share that kind of humor
with their friends, but I do.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
You would enjoy that if I if I.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Talked s to you in the form of post it's
on your computer, Yes, you would find it endearing.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
You would feel that we were closer. After that. I
don't know what to happen. Well, yeah, wait, what is this?
We're doing something? I think we're doing something. We have
a Oh do you want to put this on your
calendar just so you show up? Be nice if we did. Yeah,
no'm we're doing our news in Bruce at Lugito or
Brewing I think in Gino Hills. What's that? This is
(17:53):
the event that they're doing the day after? Oh, but
that we're helping them kick off, and in fact, we
are going to have tickets for their Hops in the
Hills event. That's a great time. Hops in the Hills.
We are going to be there Friday doing the show
from the Luchador Brewing Company in Chino Hills. Will be
there from nine until one on Saturday. They're doing their
(18:15):
brewfest the Hops in the Hills and we're going to
be giving away tickets to go to that. They still
have tickets available as well for you to purchase in
a portion of those ticket sales are donated to the
Chino Valley Fire Foundation. That Hops in the Hills event
is going to have the red Hot Cholo Peppers you
heard me, unlimited beer tastings, a dunk tank, freebies, games, food,
(18:35):
retail vendors, all sorts of stuff. But again, we will
be at Luchidoor Brewing in Chino Hills next Friday, Friday,
November fourteen, fifteenth. I would also I think it's actually
the fourteenth. Yes, we'll be there, the fourteenth. Hops in
the Hills is the fifteenth, gotcha.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
I would also like you to talk about your adult
theater that is kicking off this weekend this weekend.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
The show is called It Happened on Fifth Avenue. Yes,
like the movie, but it's an adaptation by a couple
of a couple of I guess you would say Adapters
playwrights and I play Aloisious Team mckeevar, the homeless guy
who finds out that living in other people's homes when
(19:25):
they're away can be very profitable when it comes to friends.
We will make sure that we throw up all the
information on Instagram so you can purchase tickets, et cetera.
But it's this weekend seven eight nine and next weekend
fourteen fifteen sixty.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Are there any things you're worried about about the show?
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Any nerves? An there's a lot of food that can
cause problems. A couple of scenes where we're eating, oh yeah,
which can be if you don't time that right, you'll
choke right, So there's there's a little bit of concern
about that.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
That's weird when you have to act natural eating while
you're acting.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
And listen for someone else's line to queue your line.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Well, especially you get real focused on your food.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
I massively fogs. You're kind of tunnel vision roll back
like a shark, and.
Speaker 6 (20:16):
I just right.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
You got to remember you pretend you're a housewife, go
on like on the housewives shows on Peacock Now once
was Bravo. Uh, they have food brought to them. There
are scenes where they're supposed to be eating and they
kind of pick at things and they eat a little bit.
They're not actually eating. They never eat. There's food there,
(20:39):
but you should be more like that unless like a schnauzer.
A schnauzer, Is that right?
Speaker 2 (20:46):
That's a dog?
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Does that dog eat like it's it's real hungry, because
that's how you eat.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
I would say, a young a puppy eats like it's
never going to eat again.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Okay, less puppy, more housewife.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Okay, perfect, I'll see what. You don't have to eat
that food, you know what I mean? Uh, well, yeah,
I don't have to, but that's part.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
You know, you can have a bite and people get
it you're eating. Just don't get sidetracked. Don't get that
tunnel vision, because sometimes you don't even come up for air,
you know, you get set on a meal, and it's
good luck to everyone around you who's hoping to have
an ounce of attention because you're zeroed in on that.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
No conversation, nothing until it's over. Feed time is serious
time when we come back. Yeah, porn company's suing viewers.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Yeah, this is terrifying because if your company is watching
what you download and they've got the rights to that
and you've downloaded that, they're going to come after you.
And the fines are ridiculous, and they know exactly the
titles of things that you've been watching. I mean, do
(22:04):
you have secrets you'd like to keep secret? No, But
like I was going through this article in the Guardian
and if, like, if your wife came across an email
where you're getting sued and she looked at the title
some of these titles that are listening to article, there'd
be some questions.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
Something called tushy raw.
Speaker 6 (22:22):
Right, you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
A little bit more about, of course, the election results
from last night zoron Mom Donnie wins in New York City.
He'll take over as mayor coming up on the first
of January. Spanberger won the governor's seat in Virginia, first
woman elected governor there. Mickey Cheryl won in New Jersey
the governor's race as well. And our government shutdown now
(22:52):
officially the longest in US history thirty six days. There
was some discussion of some movements at least some of
the centrist Democrats in the Senate are trying to get
some of their colleagues to vote in favor of at
least reopening the government government. There was one other note politically.
(23:13):
Senator Alex Badia says he's not going to be running
for governor of the great State of California.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
So this is just a PSA. If you're into adult
theater at home, shall I say, different, kind of different,
kind of right, right, right, there is an adult theater
and adult movies. These are adult movies, right, thank you.
These are adult movies you watch on your own. And
that's where we'll leave it.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
Now.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
There's a company called Strike three that owns a couple
of these of these.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Porn companies.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Shall we just say that's an umbrella company, and it
is clogging US courts with lawsuits, mostly against people who
are purveyors of this movie type catalog. Who feels shamed
into settling privately. Let's introduce you to Tom Brown. Tom Brown's
seventy three. He's a retired police officer from Seattle. He
(24:07):
gets a letter from Comcast and it was a subpoena
from Comcast. He had been sued in federal court for
illegally downloading eighty movies. We won't go through the titles,
but one of them is he loved my big ass,
very embarrassing titles for Tom Brown to be hit with
(24:29):
this subpoena detailing Tom Brown by the way, like I said,
it was in the police department, spent decades investigating sex crimes.
He says he's never watched any of these videos. His
years of dealing with pimping, he wrote in the court filing,
left him with no interest in pornography. He'd been married
forty years. But the subpoena said he could face damages
of up to one hundred and fifty thousand dollars per movie,
(24:53):
as much as twelve million for all eighty films, and
if that he did not answer promptly, comcasts would identify
him to the plaintiff in a case. The company called
Strike three Holdings, the umbrella.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Company over the porn companies. Yeah, Strike three is not
something that he would recognize because it really deals specifically
with copyright law. It was formed just about ten years ago.
It owns the intellectual property rights to a catalog of
a couple thousand adult films, most of them made by
(25:25):
Vixen Media Group, very little online footprint, They don't really
have much going on. Started by a guy named Greg Lanski,
who he himself was a French porn director.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
So anyway, I mean, yeah, they're collecting millions in these
settlement fees because nobody wants these things to move beyond
a settlement because they don't want to be identified right
a mass litigation campaign one federal judge likened to a
high tech shakedown. Judges are furious at how many of
these cases Strike three, the.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Umbrella company or filing.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
These are cut and paste complaints, boilerplate discovery motions, flooding
courthouses with these lawsuits that they say are just smacking
of extortion. The sheer number of lawsuits to spawn a
massive industry of defense attorneys who are only dealing with
these cases.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Well, think about what that industry itself when the Internet
came along, was gutted because so much stuff showed up online,
free to get, free to access, free to send, free
to share, all of that stuff so people didn't have
to go and seek it out and pay for it
the way they used to. It's just really the only
(26:41):
way it seems like they're able to make any more
money going right forward is by shaking down their previous
users and saying, Okay, listen, we're going to see you
for either the twelve million or you settle with us
out of court.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Strike three is able to do this because they have
a proprietary software called VXN scan, which will track your
IP address if you're if you've downloaded porn that they own,
they can track you using your IP address and that's
where they find the location.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
That's where they send the subpoena. It is a mess.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
They want five finger set, five figure settlements, ten thousand
dollars or more.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
And you're scared if you're if you're the people to
get this letter, You're like, I don't want anybody know
what I'm into.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Hot tushy, right, I thought you're know your wife's I
thought you were into cold tushy. Why why suddenly are
you into hot tushy. Well, you didn't tell me you
liked hot tush. You told me you like cold tush. Well,
you just came to me and told me you like
hot tush and we could have worked something out. But
you're over there looking at cold tush without me.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
It's a whole thing old tush. I don't know. It
sounds like a soup of some kind, like a gospat show. H.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
I can take the sexy out of everything. We will
do swamp watch when we come back.
