This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
AM six forty The Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Tuesday. It's August twenty six.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
If you haven't seen that Billy Joel documentary on HBO,
it's a great watch.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
It's a lot of fun.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Some of the it's just a fun like ride through,
you know, the decades through his career and what was
happening in the country. And you know, the takeaway is,
you know, successful songs or when you write what you
know about you know, write about your life, write what
you know about what you're feeling or what have you.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
I love those singer songwriter documentaries me too. Of them
are really great. Yeah, one I hated was Garth Brooks.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
I can't stand Garth brook I love Garth Brooks's music,
but you're not going to find anyone who loves Garth
Brooks more than Garth Brooks, right, And that's why I
never watched I never watched it. He's actually in this
because Billy Joel wrote Shameless us less or non in fact,
and so Garth Brooks is.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
In this and even even in a documentary about.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Billy Joel, he somehow makes it still makes it about him.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
But a couple of stories going on.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
President Trump says he is going to remove feder Reserve
Governor Lisa Cook, effective immediately. He is citing a criminal
referral from Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Poulty in
which Polty accused Cook of mortgage fraud. Has not been
charged with any crime. President Trump yesterday, when he was
hosting the President of South Korea, also alluded to renaming
(01:36):
the Defense Department. He was talking about going back to
the old Department of War, which it was from the
time of Washington until about nineteen well after World War Two,
in nineteen forty seven, I think is when it was
reorganized by Truman. Venezuela, speaking of is vowing to reinforce
security along its border with Columbia, as the administration has
(01:59):
been sending America and warships to the southern part of
the Caribbean Ocean see sorry Ribbean Sea. President Nicholas Maduro
and Venezuela used his TV shows.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
All at the Gulf of the Sea of America. He
ordered the deployment of fifteen thousand well armed and trained troops,
and he singled out Marco Rubio warning the US move
risks becoming a debacle.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
You Haul reports more people are moving out of California
and that nearly half of all moves in the country
take place between Memorial Day and Labor Day. People packing
up during the summer, probably because the kids are out
right the school year has finished. On average, people in
the United States will pack up and start fresh more
(02:45):
than eleven times in their lifetime in summer.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Amazing, it's the busiest season. Eleven times.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
It's a lot.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Does that count me moving out of the dorm into
my sister's house when I was a sophomore in.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
College and started fresh didn't you?
Speaker 1 (03:02):
I guess you lived in your sister's house in college.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Where'd you take all the ass? I mean, where did
you take dates after dinner?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Oh? I'm flattered that you think I was carousing in
such a way that I had multiple dates. You were
at Chico State?
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Yeah, go on, Yeah, Yeah, I guess you don't need
to take them anywhere.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
They didn't care, right, they didn't care who I brought home.
Why would that wouldn't impact.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yeah, it'd just be weird, like twenty two years old.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Yeah, I guess it would just be weird with your
I don't know, probably wouldn't stop.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
My brother they were working. She and my brother La,
they were working.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Yeah, we only had one roommate, so eleven times.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
How many times have you moved in your life? I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
I was just thinking that I moved out of school
obviously to go to college. I was at one apartment
during college from there to Seattle. No, sorry, they're to
Sacramento there to Seattle, Seattle here. I've moved nine times,
so we're still below average. Yeah. So, according to this
(04:14):
report by U Haul, people from California are primarily moving
to three states. Texas, Colorado, and Tennessee. The most popular
cities to move to, specifically cities Houston, Denver, and the
(04:36):
Vegas metro area. People are moving into California, and they
a lot of them coming from the closer states Arizona, Nevada,
Texas may be a little bit out there, but Washington, Oregon, Colorado, Utah.
Several people from Florida, Illinois, New York, which is strange
because the Arizona, Nevada, Washington, Oregon. I get a yet
(05:00):
that you would come to California, but Florida, Illinois, New
York is that all for work. California cities are gaining
the most arrivals riverside because it's more affordable. It's not
the most affordable, but it's more affordable. The Bay Area,
primarily San Francisco and San Jose metro areas.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
That's for jobs.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
San Diego because it's beautiful, Sacramento because it's beautiful, because
it's probably cheaper and considered a suburb of San Francisco nowadays.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And then Bakersfield as well. So I love that. I can't.
I hope you're laughing at the Bakersfield thing.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
I'm living at Sacramento.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Why, what's wrong Sacramento.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
Nothing's wrong with Sacramento.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Oh wow, Wow, it's beautiful. Hey hey, hey, hey, hey
hey hey.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
You know how you reped the central area whatever it's
called Fresno.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
We don't consider Bakersfield Central Valley.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah, but like Sacramento is beautify. It's the gateway to Tahoe.
All right, you have the gate We've got the gateway
to go. What do you want? You want a river,
you want a lake. Sacramento's got it all.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
I know. It's got that Gold Bridge, it has it
has a building.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
The Sacramento of the city has more trees than the
city of Paris.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Yeah, how about that. Look at all them trees.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
You want shade, You want to feeld mother Nature's love
and nurture. You go to Sacramento and need the shade too.
I need the shade. Are one hundred and twelve right now.
My nephew's football game last week was played at night.
They had to keep delaying it because it was so hot.
It's halftime. It's ten thirty at night and it's ninety
(06:47):
eight degrees. That's Sacramento. That's a good weight loss tool
right there. Three hours of football and ninety eight degree weather. Yeah,
all right, coming up next, governor stuff. Governor stuff, well,
well articulated.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
There's a weird there's a weird story.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
There's a poll that came out about who you know
voters are supporting for governor next year. But also this
story about a report on Chad Bianco the Riverside.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
If you don't know that heads of police agencies play
around with crime stats routinely, then you're a dumbass.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
It feels like we've talked about it for decades.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
It's nothing new, it's nothing illegal, it's just pr.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
She said, this is disgusting and on Pumpkin Spice Day
the Audacity, Now walk us through what you don't like
about this engagement.
Speaker 6 (07:50):
Well, that's not that I'm happy before, I'm happy for
I just don't like when other people are in love.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Damn wow, you know going to clear out the rest
of the show. We've got even have like you don't.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
We literally have two authors coming in who have a
bestseller today, and she's like, I hate love.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Well, like I.
Speaker 6 (08:13):
Love the like I love that everybody can love each other,
and like we all love ourselves, and I love that idea.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
But then when I see somebody get engaged, I'm like you.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
The fact that will in her voice with what she
talks about her hate for love is just.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
So good, delicious, It's so good. There is something that
is very hate inducing about the Instagram pictures of the engagement.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Well, they're an understanding of beautiful flowers forest.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
But I want to point out that if any Normy
got engaged and posted that image, you would say that's ai.
They said, post a picture of me getting engaged in
front of.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yea four million days worth of great.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
I'm sorry, four million dollars worth of flowers and forest.
The problem is those are real flowers that Taylor Swift
and Travis Kelcey can purt well, I'm gonna say Taylor
probably more than Trav can purchase on a whim. And
they get to do this with you know, they live
in this enchanted forest style world with a photographer right
(09:21):
there to catch the moment that.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
You know what I hate about it since we're since
we're doing it, is because they spent the money on
the backdrop of the engagement. Beautiful flowers, beautiful forest like scene.
It's it's gorgeous, it really is, but they're trying to
make it look casual in their clothes, like she's wearing
a casual like dress or you know, tank top, long skirts,
(09:45):
same pattern stripes, white and gray. And he's wearing what
appeared to be white or cream pants with like a
polo shirt, like a blue polo navy polo shirt. Like
they're trying to make it look like they're all kind
of cats. Like opulence, they didn't have options. I mean,
I feel like, if you're going to do the opulent thing,
like let's put on.
Speaker 7 (10:03):
Some us and some tea.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
I don't know, they're trying to be like, we're just
like you, like a Great Gatsby party or something in there.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
I love the flowers though. It really is a beautiful setting.
It just gorgeous. I mean, I love it. Here's what
I would love to just like take a nap. I
mean that in that scene, like when the flowers and
the and the forest, like that looks like a nice place.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Just lay down, roll around those flowers.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Just they can finally express their adult love for each
other in a very physical way.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
What they're probably going to get it all. Oh, you're
excited that they're going to have sex finally. Gosh, yeah,
that's so sweet. Good for them, of course, it's a
healthy thing for two adults.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Well they're not married yet't you wait till you're marriage
put it.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
But at least at least they're going to wait, right,
good for them, So we have no way you take it.
Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
And then a stick of dynamite like boom.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
By the way, that happened at my high school, did it?
The English teacher and the gym teacher got married. Yeah,
she was the gym teacher.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
He was the English teacher.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
Interesting, a lot of rumors going around about the extra
camping trips that they would take. Yeah, she specifically with
all the senior boys, which never happened. Why anybody thought
that a pe teacher would take a camping trip with
senior boy I don't get, but that was a wild rumor.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
My gym teacher was high all the time, mister Koletto
bong rips in his little gym room.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
He was just always high.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
He was a delight and he had a saying, when
you're in control, go with the flow. When you're not
in control, take it like a stroll. It's the very
best for your soul. Not beautiful, that's wisdom.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Yeah, drop down from on high, hell yeah, literally on
huh yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
So what do we do now? Multiple picks of them
in this garden setting. Travis is down on one knee.
You read the caption, the engagement ring is an old mine,
brilliant cut. The jewelry designer, you ask, Kindred le bec
lu Beck, will you google that and see who that is?
(12:23):
If that's somebody we should know, Kindred lubec lub e
c k. Of course, the love story started back in
July twenty twenty three, after he voiced he was disappointed
Travis did he was not able to meet Taylor at
her Era's Top Stop tour in Kansas City. He made
that confession on his podcast with his brother Jason, The
(12:45):
New Heights Podcast. It's gone on to achieve great fame
because of this relationship. Not very expensive ring, much money
has been made, He keeped.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
Out on the ring.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Well, I'll say this.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
On the the jewels buy Lubeck website, you can buy
rings for four or five thousand dollars. If this was
a custom piece, I'm sure. I'm sure you didn't buy
it off the rack.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
Why not?
Speaker 2 (13:12):
It's just your gym teacher and your music teacher or
your English teacher. It's a good call right there. You're
trying to keep it. You know, they're just like you.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Remember it, like it began with this piece of jewelry.
He made a friendship bracelet with his phone number on
it for her.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Word gets back to Taylor.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
She called it something out of a John Hughes movie
that we all love, and then they made their relationships.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
No, no, no, hold on a second. Oh, she does
not get to have John Hughes movies. No, absolutely not. No,
they're for everybody. They are not for everybody. They're for
the people who lived through difficult times with John Hughes.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
She lived through difficult times, bull ass, You don't remember.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
All her eras they made their relationships. Take John Hughes official.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
In September twenty twenty three, that's when she went were
her first Chief's game and she cheered him on from
the box at Arrowhead. She started going to all the
football games, joined him on a on the field after
his big Super Bowl win.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Sorry, I'm dealing with PTSD in that part. Why are
you sweating?
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Anyway? They're engaged anyway. I'm happy for them. He should
really retire, he's gotten very slow and and live their lives.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Now.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Are they going to have kid with? She's thirty six, right,
he's thirty. They're both about thirty six. We both seem
to be imperfect. But people are making babies in their
mid forties. Yeah, she's probably got her eggs frozen or something. Right,
he's probably got sperm frozen. Do guys do that? Do
the rich guys freezer sperm? It doesn't matter what that
doesn't Your sperm is good till you're like dead, right,
(14:50):
until you're a code three hundred or whatever.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
And she's fine too. What is it? I don't think Yeahor.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
By the way, just after we talked about not needing
a hijack term for the show, Taylor and Travis.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Hijacked the show.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Yeah, that's called a squawk seven hundred.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Is that right?
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Yeah, we got a squawk seven hundred on this show.
Hotel Because now we've got wedding planning to do, you know.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Next summer. Is that too early? It's way too ear.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
When you're rich, like, you can just call it together.
They could do it this weekend.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
They clearly had people to put together this fantasy land
flower garden where they did the engagement.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
They could put a wedding together. Yeah, I don't know
why you're yelling yes, Canna.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
Oh, he has to get through the NFL season before
they can get right.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
He's got a drag ass for seventeen games.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
You know, you sparingly on third down first weekend in February.
He could get married. Oh well, if he's not going
to play in the Super Bowl. Oh, you know, it's
a whole story arc for him and for her. Tell
me more because she's about to have her album. You
know what I mean, she's kind of this.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Is a publicity, yes, dare you No?
Speaker 2 (16:00):
This is for everyone, you know what I mean. I'm
happy for them.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Yeah, happens to be beneficial for everything happens.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
You can't put a time limit on love.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
You know why they're they're getting engaged and this has
worked out because they're both away from each other so much.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
It's like it's like those firefighter marriages.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
I mean they work because you know, they're gone four
days on, four days off.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
You don't see each other.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Tell her and Travis they see each other, what two
weeks out of the year. Of course they love each other.
Try spending a whole year.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
With these people together. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Try Try doing the dishes and then doing them again,
and then.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Figuring out what you want for dinner.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
On a Wednesday, she's got to go to the bathroom
and he's in there forty five minutes.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
How about sharing a one bedroom apartment, guys, and then
we'll see how long you'll last, and then we'll see
if you get an engagement ring.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Now, who's yelling at I'm.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Just saying it's all very you pointed it out to me,
like the amount of money they have, which means convenience,
which means awarding space and peace of mind. Shall we
say they do not have to work at certain things,
but they do work very hard. Both of them work
very hard in their jobs. There's a lot of work
that goes into both those careers.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
I hope they work on their love. I'm sure they're
working on their love. I don't know what you what
do you mean by that? You want them to you
want them to be a hard worker. She's a hard worker.
He's a hard worker.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
The rumors that they bought a house.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
I'm sure they have four? Did they?
Speaker 4 (17:29):
I think so?
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (17:31):
I think yeah, probably they probably each have a wing
or a couple wings. You know, that's some room to
move out and move around. Well, but I mean, when
does the baby come. That's going to be I'm ready
for a baby. The wedding is going to be a spectacle.
I mean it's going to be a spectacle.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
You know what'd be cool? Is it?
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Sorry?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
We got to break I'm getting excited.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
That's a strange twist from where you were like literally
ninety seconds ago.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
No, no, I was just saying things are harder when you
don't have money. It's harder to work on your love.
To use your term, we will continue to love love.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
When we come back.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
I hope it's understanding lovely.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Even if it was a four million dollar wedding, that
was just because it didn't look like a formula.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Because here's the thing about the difference between Jeff Bezos
and Lauren Sanchez. They're rich as hell, but they're not
popular culture people. They don't have fans, they don't have
people that show up in arenas one hundred thousand strong
and cheer for them. Travis Kelcey and Taylor Swift both
have that on the regular. They're not short on attention.
(18:44):
They've got attention all the time. They fill stadiums solely
they fill stadiums, So they don't need that adulation that
that Jeff Bezos and Laurence Sanchez needed.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
They get it all the time. Taylor's case, they get
it five days ago when she's on tour.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
So wouldn't it be nice to have something intimate and
private with just family and friends, Like wouldn't that be
nice to not make it a spectacle. Now, it's hard
to make something like that when you're, you know, the
most famous couple on the globe.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
It would be hard to keep paparazzi out or to
keep it hush hush.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
But wouldn't that be nice for like an early Kardashian wedding,
just some smaller, little understated perhaps.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
I don't know what those were like. Which was you're
referring to, like always the guy that.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Played for the Clippers that married Kim Kardashian for four minutes.
Oh h yeah, he had to stay out of the sun.
He had a skin condition. Well, and just get get
married somewhere in the hills Calabasas.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Someone's backyard.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Nice place, a couple of people, a couple of photographers.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
I wasn't thinking like a backyard in the valley. I
was thinking like Lake Como, private.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
You still want to go to Italy? No, no, no, he's
from Ohio, He's.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
He's she's from Philadelphia. That's somewhere between there, maybe Pittsburgh.
Pittsburgh is lovely. There's all the bridges in the water.
They could shut down a bridge.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
They could shut down a bridge.
Speaker 6 (20:14):
Yeah, Travis and Taylor got engaged and Pumpkin Spicy comes
out today.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Yeah, I could just turn around and go home much
better than this day.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
Get And if you think that that was not intentional, well,
Cana was upset that they ruined Pumpkin Spice day.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
They're taking away the thunder? Is that right?
Speaker 4 (20:30):
And I stand by it.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
They couldn't. They couldn't let Starbucks have something specially.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
I couldn't just be happy for one day.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
I think they enhanced.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
I haven't laughed that hard at the Gary and Shandling
show in a long time.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
That guy's on the dumper right now, Little High, Little High.
I'm sorry, what are you supposed to do the rest
of the show. I'm sorry, Elmer, what did you say?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
He says, they enhanced, They enhanced pump and Pumpkin Spye.
Speaker 8 (21:00):
It's beneficial for both parties, you know, because her fan
base loves pumpkin spice, so they're happy about pumpkin Spice.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
It's like that time Doctor Schulz Inserts teamed up with
the Kingsford Charcoal Briquette people, and if people were running
across the hot coals, then they go stick their feet
on the doctor shoals.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Yeahat I'll throw this in Jolt Cola. Go on, Cola alone.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Gets you, gives you a kick, and they had to
put more kick in it with jolt Cola. Well, you're
just adding on to it this state exponentially.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
What more could have We've got to have threes great.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Things coming threes, right, So we've got Pumpkin spice Day,
We've got Taylor Travis engagement, and then we need a
third thing.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
What could what could be on that level?
Speaker 1 (21:53):
I think those two things are on equal footing kind
of right, agreed, Yeah, those are two equals. So what
could be on that level? And maybe we have the earthquake? Deborah,
you know maybe.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
We Wow, No, that's too much. Why would you do that?
Speaker 4 (22:10):
It is too much?
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Yeah, sorry, she's just easing back into California life.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Yeah, I don't need a quake.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
I've already been worried about it.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Were you worried when you were out of the.
Speaker 9 (22:20):
It was actually I was saying to myself, you know,
I really hope that there's not a major earthquake because
my husband and my dogs or you know, they're by
themselves chop liver.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
We're chop liver. Dari and Shannon didn't cross her mind.
We can die in the apparently.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Look can you tell my mother's been in my house
for two days overreacting earthquake.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Yeah, stop bringing them up. We can't. We live in California,
So just let it happen though, you don't have to
talk about it the time. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I
was wrong. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
So I don't know what the third thing could be,
you know, is it to death? Is it like Harvey
Weinstein dies finally? Is it like a death we're happy about,
you know, like that?
Speaker 4 (23:08):
Maybe another engagement, another celebrity.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
Or a celebrity.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
We've got love, We've got food. We've got the food department.
We've got the love department. We need something with money, right, sure?
Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Trumps the lottery tonight. Who I don't know. That's a
good one. Somebody here m probably me?
Speaker 9 (23:30):
We okay, maybe all of us, aren't we all on
that lottery?
Speaker 2 (23:34):
You think that that's real? That's cute? I did? What
am I missing? No it's not. Michelle is going to
take that money. You'll never hear from her again. A racket. Yeah,
it's a racket. It's gonna share.
Speaker 7 (23:47):
I believe in her oh hope, and people I did
ask her if she would call me no, no, in
the event, I will never be I'm very proud of Michelle.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
I'll never be more proud than she wins with all
our money and we never hear from her. She doesn't
post on social media. She's just gone like the wind.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
It is massive.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
It's called an old mine, brilliant cut and sources to
TMZ tell them the jeweler worked with Travis to design it.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
It's huge. It is a massive diamond. It could feed
many people. It could feed many people. Yeah, it can
feed many people.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Uh, not Elmer, not Blake Griffin. No, Chris Humphries. What
Blake Griffin was with Kendall? Kendall at one point.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
It's hard to get all those girls and their boys,
such of girls on that house.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Yeah, called nine. It is not Blake Griffin that you're
thinking of. It was Chris Humphrey.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Yes, I got serious, real quick, very serious. Stern. That
was just Stern talking to you. That was like, is
that Yeah?
Speaker 2 (25:09):
But I was wrong?
Speaker 4 (25:10):
Kind of looks similar.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
No, they don't. I made that. I've screwed up.
Speaker 8 (25:15):
Okay, he's all off, Yeah, click, hanging up.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
It's a big day, guys.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
We're all overwhelmed. I think emotionally, it's fair to say
there was pumpkins because it wasn't just pumpkin spice latte.
It was like a whole menu of pumpkin spice things,
and that was hard to wrap our heads around. And
then this bomb is dropped on top of us, and
we're just finding our footing. You know, we have to
be gentle with ourselves.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
The highway of American capitalism is littered with bad rebranding choices. Yes,
and the latest roadkill is a former cracker barrel.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
The cracker barrel was great because it was something that
hadn't changed.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
You know, it's like McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
There's a lot of value to something that has been
the same your entire life. It's comforting, and when you
mix that feeling with actual comfort food, bingo winner. You're
taking a car to the shop that doesn't need to
be repaired. It's like mikel Irvin said after the Cowboys
went back to back Super Bowls. You don't get rid
(26:31):
of Jimmy Johnson. There's nothing wrong with the car. Why
are you taking it to the shop?
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Cracker barrel? Why are you taking the car to the shop.
I remember when Denny's tried to rebrand many years ago,
and they they tried to clean up their restaurants, and
they tried to clean up their menu, and they tried
to add healthy options and things like that, and it
was don't do that. I know what I'm getting into
(26:57):
when I walk into a Denny's at eleven forty five
at night. I know I expect this table to be
a little sticky in the booth, to be a little dirty.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Absolutely, the dirty or the better.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
Sure.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
I don't want my bacon fully cooked on the whole strip.
I want part of it raw and part of it burned.
I don't want to also be assaulted when I walk
into a Denny's with healthy foods. If I want healthy,
I'll go to the Simple Grains across the street. If
I go to Denny's, I want to f up my system.
I want diabetes. And if you're gonna give me a
kale salad to look at on that menu alongside my diabetes,
(27:29):
it's gonna piss me off. Know you're lane and travel
in it.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Pedal to the metal.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
Yeah, much of the uproar out there about the Cracker
Barrel stuff because they redid a lot of the internals, right,
They went away from sort of the reclaimed barnwood look
to awful. Uh what's that flim flam ship lap flim
flam the ship lap. It looks like white ship lap
(27:57):
inside its restaurants. But they also and I think this
is the thing that caused a lot more of the
uproar was they changed the logo, did away with the
image of the old guy sitting in a chair with
his arms slung over a barrel, and it's just the
clean words Cracker Barrel inside the logo.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Now that guy's gone.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
The man depicts the company's founder, a guy named Uncle Herschel,
whom Cracker Barrel insists will remain an integral part of
our brand identity. Uncle Herschel will still be on the menu,
on the road signs and featured in the country store.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
He's not going anywhere. He's family.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
The CEO of a branding company called Strategic Vision pr
Group says what Cracker Barrel did wrong is they went
against their brand story. The brand story was the old
logo that reflected that his words southern whimsical act atmosphere
(29:00):
of the stores.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
All right, I've got an update on the Travis Taylor engagement.
We were wondering what else was going to happen today,
we got Pumpkin Spices Day, we got the engagement. I
was wondering if it was going to involve money. Since
we've got the food element of our lives set, we've
got the love in our heart set, what did it
involve money? Well, this engagement is already making massive financial waves.
(29:26):
We'll tell you what's already happened when we come back
to Gary and Shannon.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
You've been listening to The Gary and Shannon Show.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
You can always hear us live on KFI AM six
forty nine am to one pm every Monday through Friday,
and anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
AM six forty The Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Tuesday. It's August twenty six.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
If you haven't seen that Billy Joel documentary on HBO,
it's a great watch.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
It's a lot of fun.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Some of the it's just a fun like ride through,
you know, the decades through his career and what was
happening in the country. And you know, the takeaway is,
you know, successful songs or when you write what you
know about you know, write about your life, write what
you know about what you're feeling or what have you.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
I love those singer songwriter documentaries me too. Of them
are really great. Yeah, one I hated was Garth Brooks.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
I can't stand Garth brook I love Garth Brooks's music,
but you're not going to find anyone who loves Garth
Brooks more than Garth Brooks, right, And that's why I
never watched I never watched it. He's actually in this
because Billy Joel wrote Shameless us less or non in fact,
and so Garth Brooks is.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
In this and even even in a documentary about.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Billy Joel, he somehow makes it still makes it about him.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
But a couple of stories going on.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
President Trump says he is going to remove feder Reserve
Governor Lisa Cook, effective immediately. He is citing a criminal
referral from Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Poulty in
which Polty accused Cook of mortgage fraud. Has not been
charged with any crime. President Trump yesterday, when he was
hosting the President of South Korea, also alluded to renaming
(01:36):
the Defense Department. He was talking about going back to
the old Department of War, which it was from the
time of Washington until about nineteen well after World War Two,
in nineteen forty seven, I think is when it was
reorganized by Truman. Venezuela, speaking of is vowing to reinforce
security along its border with Columbia, as the administration has
(01:59):
been sending America and warships to the southern part of
the Caribbean Ocean see sorry Ribbean Sea. President Nicholas Maduro
and Venezuela used his TV shows.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
All at the Gulf of the Sea of America. He
ordered the deployment of fifteen thousand well armed and trained troops,
and he singled out Marco Rubio warning the US move
risks becoming a debacle.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
You Haul reports more people are moving out of California
and that nearly half of all moves in the country
take place between Memorial Day and Labor Day. People packing
up during the summer, probably because the kids are out
right the school year has finished. On average, people in
the United States will pack up and start fresh more
(02:45):
than eleven times in their lifetime in summer.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Amazing, it's the busiest season. Eleven times.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
It's a lot.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Does that count me moving out of the dorm into
my sister's house when I was a sophomore in.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
College and started fresh didn't you?
Speaker 1 (03:02):
I guess you lived in your sister's house in college.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Where'd you take all the ass? I mean, where did
you take dates after dinner?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Oh? I'm flattered that you think I was carousing in
such a way that I had multiple dates. You were
at Chico State?
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Yeah, go on, Yeah, Yeah, I guess you don't need
to take them anywhere.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
They didn't care, right, they didn't care who I brought home.
Why would that wouldn't impact.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yeah, it'd just be weird, like twenty two years old.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Yeah, I guess it would just be weird with your
I don't know, probably wouldn't stop.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
My brother they were working. She and my brother La,
they were working.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Yeah, we only had one roommate, so eleven times.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
How many times have you moved in your life? I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
I was just thinking that I moved out of school
obviously to go to college. I was at one apartment
during college from there to Seattle. No, sorry, they're to
Sacramento there to Seattle, Seattle here. I've moved nine times,
so we're still below average. Yeah. So, according to this
(04:14):
report by U Haul, people from California are primarily moving
to three states. Texas, Colorado, and Tennessee. The most popular
cities to move to, specifically cities Houston, Denver, and the
(04:36):
Vegas metro area. People are moving into California, and they
a lot of them coming from the closer states Arizona, Nevada,
Texas may be a little bit out there, but Washington, Oregon, Colorado, Utah.
Several people from Florida, Illinois, New York, which is strange
because the Arizona, Nevada, Washington, Oregon. I get a yet
(05:00):
that you would come to California, but Florida, Illinois, New
York is that all for work. California cities are gaining
the most arrivals riverside because it's more affordable. It's not
the most affordable, but it's more affordable. The Bay Area,
primarily San Francisco and San Jose metro areas.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
That's for jobs.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
San Diego because it's beautiful, Sacramento because it's beautiful, because
it's probably cheaper and considered a suburb of San Francisco nowadays.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And then Bakersfield as well. So I love that. I can't.
I hope you're laughing at the Bakersfield thing.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
I'm living at Sacramento.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Why, what's wrong Sacramento.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
Nothing's wrong with Sacramento.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Oh wow, Wow, it's beautiful. Hey hey, hey, hey, hey
hey hey.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
You know how you reped the central area whatever it's
called Fresno.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
We don't consider Bakersfield Central Valley.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah, but like Sacramento is beautify. It's the gateway to Tahoe.
All right, you have the gate We've got the gateway
to go. What do you want? You want a river,
you want a lake. Sacramento's got it all.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
I know. It's got that Gold Bridge, it has it
has a building.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
The Sacramento of the city has more trees than the
city of Paris.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Yeah, how about that. Look at all them trees.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
You want shade, You want to feeld mother Nature's love
and nurture. You go to Sacramento and need the shade too.
I need the shade. Are one hundred and twelve right now.
My nephew's football game last week was played at night.
They had to keep delaying it because it was so hot.
It's halftime. It's ten thirty at night and it's ninety
(06:47):
eight degrees. That's Sacramento. That's a good weight loss tool
right there. Three hours of football and ninety eight degree weather. Yeah,
all right, coming up next, governor stuff. Governor stuff, well,
well articulated.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
There's a weird there's a weird story.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
There's a poll that came out about who you know
voters are supporting for governor next year. But also this
story about a report on Chad Bianco the Riverside.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
If you don't know that heads of police agencies play
around with crime stats routinely, then you're a dumbass.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
It feels like we've talked about it for decades.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
It's nothing new, it's nothing illegal, it's just pr.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
She said, this is disgusting and on Pumpkin Spice Day
the Audacity, Now walk us through what you don't like
about this engagement.
Speaker 6 (07:50):
Well, that's not that I'm happy before, I'm happy for
I just don't like when other people are in love.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Damn wow, you know going to clear out the rest
of the show. We've got even have like you don't.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
We literally have two authors coming in who have a
bestseller today, and she's like, I hate love.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Well, like I.
Speaker 6 (08:13):
Love the like I love that everybody can love each other,
and like we all love ourselves, and I love that idea.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
But then when I see somebody get engaged, I'm like you.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
The fact that will in her voice with what she
talks about her hate for love is just.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
So good, delicious, It's so good. There is something that
is very hate inducing about the Instagram pictures of the engagement.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Well, they're an understanding of beautiful flowers forest.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
But I want to point out that if any Normy
got engaged and posted that image, you would say that's ai.
They said, post a picture of me getting engaged in
front of.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yea four million days worth of great.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
I'm sorry, four million dollars worth of flowers and forest.
The problem is those are real flowers that Taylor Swift
and Travis Kelcey can purt well, I'm gonna say Taylor
probably more than Trav can purchase on a whim. And
they get to do this with you know, they live
in this enchanted forest style world with a photographer right
(09:21):
there to catch the moment that.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
You know what I hate about it since we're since
we're doing it, is because they spent the money on
the backdrop of the engagement. Beautiful flowers, beautiful forest like scene.
It's it's gorgeous, it really is, but they're trying to
make it look casual in their clothes, like she's wearing
a casual like dress or you know, tank top, long skirts,
(09:45):
same pattern stripes, white and gray. And he's wearing what
appeared to be white or cream pants with like a
polo shirt, like a blue polo navy polo shirt. Like
they're trying to make it look like they're all kind
of cats. Like opulence, they didn't have options. I mean,
I feel like, if you're going to do the opulent thing,
like let's put on.
Speaker 7 (10:03):
Some us and some tea.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
I don't know, they're trying to be like, we're just
like you, like a Great Gatsby party or something in there.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
I love the flowers though. It really is a beautiful setting.
It just gorgeous. I mean, I love it. Here's what
I would love to just like take a nap. I
mean that in that scene, like when the flowers and
the and the forest, like that looks like a nice place.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Just lay down, roll around those flowers.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Just they can finally express their adult love for each
other in a very physical way.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
What they're probably going to get it all. Oh, you're
excited that they're going to have sex finally. Gosh, yeah,
that's so sweet. Good for them, of course, it's a
healthy thing for two adults.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Well they're not married yet't you wait till you're marriage
put it.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
But at least at least they're going to wait, right,
good for them, So we have no way you take it.
Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
And then a stick of dynamite like boom.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
By the way, that happened at my high school, did it?
The English teacher and the gym teacher got married. Yeah,
she was the gym teacher.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
He was the English teacher.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
Interesting, a lot of rumors going around about the extra
camping trips that they would take. Yeah, she specifically with
all the senior boys, which never happened. Why anybody thought
that a pe teacher would take a camping trip with
senior boy I don't get, but that was a wild rumor.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
My gym teacher was high all the time, mister Koletto
bong rips in his little gym room.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
He was just always high.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
He was a delight and he had a saying, when
you're in control, go with the flow. When you're not
in control, take it like a stroll. It's the very
best for your soul. Not beautiful, that's wisdom.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Yeah, drop down from on high, hell yeah, literally on
huh yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
So what do we do now? Multiple picks of them
in this garden setting. Travis is down on one knee.
You read the caption, the engagement ring is an old mine,
brilliant cut. The jewelry designer, you ask, Kindred le bec
lu Beck, will you google that and see who that is?
(12:23):
If that's somebody we should know, Kindred lubec lub e
c k. Of course, the love story started back in
July twenty twenty three, after he voiced he was disappointed
Travis did he was not able to meet Taylor at
her Era's Top Stop tour in Kansas City. He made
that confession on his podcast with his brother Jason, The
(12:45):
New Heights Podcast. It's gone on to achieve great fame
because of this relationship. Not very expensive ring, much money
has been made, He keeped.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
Out on the ring.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Well, I'll say this.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
On the the jewels buy Lubeck website, you can buy
rings for four or five thousand dollars. If this was
a custom piece, I'm sure. I'm sure you didn't buy
it off the rack.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
Why not?
Speaker 2 (13:12):
It's just your gym teacher and your music teacher or
your English teacher. It's a good call right there. You're
trying to keep it. You know, they're just like you.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Remember it, like it began with this piece of jewelry.
He made a friendship bracelet with his phone number on
it for her.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Word gets back to Taylor.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
She called it something out of a John Hughes movie
that we all love, and then they made their relationships.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
No, no, no, hold on a second. Oh, she does
not get to have John Hughes movies. No, absolutely not. No,
they're for everybody. They are not for everybody. They're for
the people who lived through difficult times with John Hughes.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
She lived through difficult times, bull ass, You don't remember.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
All her eras they made their relationships. Take John Hughes official.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
In September twenty twenty three, that's when she went were
her first Chief's game and she cheered him on from
the box at Arrowhead. She started going to all the
football games, joined him on a on the field after
his big Super Bowl win.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Sorry, I'm dealing with PTSD in that part. Why are
you sweating?
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Anyway? They're engaged anyway. I'm happy for them. He should
really retire, he's gotten very slow and and live their lives.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Now.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Are they going to have kid with? She's thirty six, right,
he's thirty. They're both about thirty six. We both seem
to be imperfect. But people are making babies in their
mid forties. Yeah, she's probably got her eggs frozen or something. Right,
he's probably got sperm frozen. Do guys do that? Do
the rich guys freezer sperm? It doesn't matter what that
doesn't Your sperm is good till you're like dead, right,
(14:50):
until you're a code three hundred or whatever.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
And she's fine too. What is it? I don't think Yeahor.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
By the way, just after we talked about not needing
a hijack term for the show, Taylor and Travis.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
Hijacked the show.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Yeah, that's called a squawk seven hundred.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Is that right?
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Yeah, we got a squawk seven hundred on this show.
Hotel Because now we've got wedding planning to do, you know.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Next summer. Is that too early? It's way too ear.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
When you're rich, like, you can just call it together.
They could do it this weekend.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
They clearly had people to put together this fantasy land
flower garden where they did the engagement.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
They could put a wedding together. Yeah, I don't know
why you're yelling yes, Canna.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
Oh, he has to get through the NFL season before
they can get right.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
He's got a drag ass for seventeen games.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
You know, you sparingly on third down first weekend in February.
He could get married. Oh well, if he's not going
to play in the Super Bowl. Oh, you know, it's
a whole story arc for him and for her. Tell
me more because she's about to have her album. You
know what I mean, she's kind of this.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Is a publicity, yes, dare you No?
Speaker 2 (16:00):
This is for everyone, you know what I mean. I'm
happy for them.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Yeah, happens to be beneficial for everything happens.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
You can't put a time limit on love.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
You know why they're they're getting engaged and this has
worked out because they're both away from each other so much.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
It's like it's like those firefighter marriages.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
I mean they work because you know, they're gone four
days on, four days off.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
You don't see each other.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Tell her and Travis they see each other, what two
weeks out of the year. Of course they love each other.
Try spending a whole year.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
With these people together. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Try Try doing the dishes and then doing them again,
and then.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Figuring out what you want for dinner.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
On a Wednesday, she's got to go to the bathroom
and he's in there forty five minutes.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
How about sharing a one bedroom apartment, guys, and then
we'll see how long you'll last, and then we'll see
if you get an engagement ring.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Now, who's yelling at I'm.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Just saying it's all very you pointed it out to me,
like the amount of money they have, which means convenience,
which means awarding space and peace of mind. Shall we
say they do not have to work at certain things,
but they do work very hard. Both of them work
very hard in their jobs. There's a lot of work
that goes into both those careers.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
I hope they work on their love. I'm sure they're
working on their love. I don't know what you what
do you mean by that? You want them to you
want them to be a hard worker. She's a hard worker.
He's a hard worker.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
The rumors that they bought a house.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
I'm sure they have four? Did they?
Speaker 4 (17:29):
I think so?
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (17:31):
I think yeah, probably they probably each have a wing
or a couple wings. You know, that's some room to
move out and move around. Well, but I mean, when
does the baby come. That's going to be I'm ready
for a baby. The wedding is going to be a spectacle.
I mean it's going to be a spectacle.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
You know what'd be cool? Is it?
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Sorry?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
We got to break I'm getting excited.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
That's a strange twist from where you were like literally
ninety seconds ago.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
No, no, I was just saying things are harder when you
don't have money. It's harder to work on your love.
To use your term, we will continue to love love.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
When we come back.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
I hope it's understanding lovely.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Even if it was a four million dollar wedding, that
was just because it didn't look like a formula.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Because here's the thing about the difference between Jeff Bezos
and Lauren Sanchez. They're rich as hell, but they're not
popular culture people. They don't have fans, they don't have
people that show up in arenas one hundred thousand strong
and cheer for them. Travis Kelcey and Taylor Swift both
have that on the regular. They're not short on attention.
(18:44):
They've got attention all the time. They fill stadiums solely
they fill stadiums, So they don't need that adulation that
that Jeff Bezos and Laurence Sanchez needed.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
They get it all the time. Taylor's case, they get
it five days ago when she's on tour.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
So wouldn't it be nice to have something intimate and
private with just family and friends, Like wouldn't that be
nice to not make it a spectacle. Now, it's hard
to make something like that when you're, you know, the
most famous couple on the globe.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
It would be hard to keep paparazzi out or to
keep it hush hush.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
But wouldn't that be nice for like an early Kardashian wedding,
just some smaller, little understated perhaps.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
I don't know what those were like. Which was you're
referring to, like always the guy that.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Played for the Clippers that married Kim Kardashian for four minutes.
Oh h yeah, he had to stay out of the sun.
He had a skin condition. Well, and just get get
married somewhere in the hills Calabasas.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Someone's backyard.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Nice place, a couple of people, a couple of photographers.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
I wasn't thinking like a backyard in the valley. I
was thinking like Lake Como, private.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
You still want to go to Italy? No, no, no, he's
from Ohio, He's.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
He's she's from Philadelphia. That's somewhere between there, maybe Pittsburgh.
Pittsburgh is lovely. There's all the bridges in the water.
They could shut down a bridge.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
They could shut down a bridge.
Speaker 6 (20:14):
Yeah, Travis and Taylor got engaged and Pumpkin Spicy comes
out today.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Yeah, I could just turn around and go home much
better than this day.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
Get And if you think that that was not intentional, well,
Cana was upset that they ruined Pumpkin Spice day.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
They're taking away the thunder? Is that right?
Speaker 4 (20:30):
And I stand by it.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
They couldn't. They couldn't let Starbucks have something specially.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
I couldn't just be happy for one day.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
I think they enhanced.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
I haven't laughed that hard at the Gary and Shandling
show in a long time.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
That guy's on the dumper right now, Little High, Little High.
I'm sorry, what are you supposed to do the rest
of the show. I'm sorry, Elmer, what did you say?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
He says, they enhanced, They enhanced pump and Pumpkin Spye.
Speaker 8 (21:00):
It's beneficial for both parties, you know, because her fan
base loves pumpkin spice, so they're happy about pumpkin Spice.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
It's like that time Doctor Schulz Inserts teamed up with
the Kingsford Charcoal Briquette people, and if people were running
across the hot coals, then they go stick their feet
on the doctor shoals.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Yeahat I'll throw this in Jolt Cola. Go on, Cola alone.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Gets you, gives you a kick, and they had to
put more kick in it with jolt Cola. Well, you're
just adding on to it this state exponentially.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
What more could have We've got to have threes great.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Things coming threes, right, So we've got Pumpkin spice Day,
We've got Taylor Travis engagement, and then we need a
third thing.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
What could what could be on that level?
Speaker 1 (21:53):
I think those two things are on equal footing kind
of right, agreed, Yeah, those are two equals. So what
could be on that level? And maybe we have the earthquake? Deborah,
you know maybe.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
We Wow, No, that's too much. Why would you do that?
Speaker 4 (22:10):
It is too much?
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Yeah, sorry, she's just easing back into California life.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Yeah, I don't need a quake.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
I've already been worried about it.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Were you worried when you were out of the.
Speaker 9 (22:20):
It was actually I was saying to myself, you know,
I really hope that there's not a major earthquake because
my husband and my dogs or you know, they're by
themselves chop liver.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
We're chop liver. Dari and Shannon didn't cross her mind.
We can die in the apparently.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Look can you tell my mother's been in my house
for two days overreacting earthquake.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Yeah, stop bringing them up. We can't. We live in California,
So just let it happen though, you don't have to
talk about it the time. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I
was wrong. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
So I don't know what the third thing could be,
you know, is it to death? Is it like Harvey
Weinstein dies finally? Is it like a death we're happy about,
you know, like that?
Speaker 4 (23:08):
Maybe another engagement, another celebrity.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
Or a celebrity.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
We've got love, We've got food. We've got the food department.
We've got the love department. We need something with money, right, sure?
Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Trumps the lottery tonight. Who I don't know. That's a
good one. Somebody here m probably me?
Speaker 9 (23:30):
We okay, maybe all of us, aren't we all on
that lottery?
Speaker 2 (23:34):
You think that that's real? That's cute? I did? What
am I missing? No it's not. Michelle is going to
take that money. You'll never hear from her again. A racket. Yeah,
it's a racket. It's gonna share.
Speaker 7 (23:47):
I believe in her oh hope, and people I did
ask her if she would call me no, no, in
the event, I will never be I'm very proud of Michelle.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
I'll never be more proud than she wins with all
our money and we never hear from her. She doesn't
post on social media. She's just gone like the wind.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
It is massive.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
It's called an old mine, brilliant cut and sources to
TMZ tell them the jeweler worked with Travis to design it.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
It's huge. It is a massive diamond. It could feed
many people. It could feed many people. Yeah, it can
feed many people.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Uh, not Elmer, not Blake Griffin. No, Chris Humphries. What
Blake Griffin was with Kendall? Kendall at one point.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
It's hard to get all those girls and their boys,
such of girls on that house.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Yeah, called nine. It is not Blake Griffin that you're
thinking of. It was Chris Humphrey.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Yes, I got serious, real quick, very serious. Stern. That
was just Stern talking to you. That was like, is
that Yeah?
Speaker 2 (25:09):
But I was wrong?
Speaker 4 (25:10):
Kind of looks similar.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
No, they don't. I made that. I've screwed up.
Speaker 8 (25:15):
Okay, he's all off, Yeah, click, hanging up.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
It's a big day, guys.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
We're all overwhelmed. I think emotionally, it's fair to say
there was pumpkins because it wasn't just pumpkin spice latte.
It was like a whole menu of pumpkin spice things,
and that was hard to wrap our heads around. And
then this bomb is dropped on top of us, and
we're just finding our footing. You know, we have to
be gentle with ourselves.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
The highway of American capitalism is littered with bad rebranding choices. Yes,
and the latest roadkill is a former cracker barrel.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
The cracker barrel was great because it was something that
hadn't changed.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
You know, it's like McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
There's a lot of value to something that has been
the same your entire life. It's comforting, and when you
mix that feeling with actual comfort food, bingo winner. You're
taking a car to the shop that doesn't need to
be repaired. It's like mikel Irvin said after the Cowboys
went back to back Super Bowls. You don't get rid
(26:31):
of Jimmy Johnson. There's nothing wrong with the car. Why
are you taking it to the shop?
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Cracker barrel? Why are you taking the car to the shop.
I remember when Denny's tried to rebrand many years ago,
and they they tried to clean up their restaurants, and
they tried to clean up their menu, and they tried
to add healthy options and things like that, and it
was don't do that. I know what I'm getting into
(26:57):
when I walk into a Denny's at eleven forty five
at night. I know I expect this table to be
a little sticky in the booth, to be a little dirty.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Absolutely, the dirty or the better.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
Sure.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
I don't want my bacon fully cooked on the whole strip.
I want part of it raw and part of it burned.
I don't want to also be assaulted when I walk
into a Denny's with healthy foods. If I want healthy,
I'll go to the Simple Grains across the street. If
I go to Denny's, I want to f up my system.
I want diabetes. And if you're gonna give me a
kale salad to look at on that menu alongside my diabetes,
(27:29):
it's gonna piss me off. Know you're lane and travel
in it.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Pedal to the metal.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
Yeah, much of the uproar out there about the Cracker
Barrel stuff because they redid a lot of the internals, right,
They went away from sort of the reclaimed barnwood look
to awful. Uh what's that flim flam ship lap flim
flam the ship lap. It looks like white ship lap
(27:57):
inside its restaurants. But they also and I think this
is the thing that caused a lot more of the
uproar was they changed the logo, did away with the
image of the old guy sitting in a chair with
his arms slung over a barrel, and it's just the
clean words Cracker Barrel inside the logo.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Now that guy's gone.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
The man depicts the company's founder, a guy named Uncle Herschel,
whom Cracker Barrel insists will remain an integral part of
our brand identity. Uncle Herschel will still be on the menu,
on the road signs and featured in the country store.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
He's not going anywhere. He's family.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
The CEO of a branding company called Strategic Vision pr
Group says what Cracker Barrel did wrong is they went
against their brand story. The brand story was the old
logo that reflected that his words southern whimsical act atmosphere
(29:00):
of the stores.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
All right, I've got an update on the Travis Taylor engagement.
We were wondering what else was going to happen today,
we got Pumpkin Spices Day, we got the engagement. I
was wondering if it was going to involve money. Since
we've got the food element of our lives set, we've
got the love in our heart set, what did it
involve money? Well, this engagement is already making massive financial waves.
(29:26):
We'll tell you what's already happened when we come back
to Gary and Shannon.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
You've been listening to The Gary and Shannon Show.
