Gary and Shannon kick off the hour with a heartfelt talk-back from a listener who shares their appreciation for the show. They then dive into Malibu’s newly declared state of emergency over fire risks caused by homeless encampments and debate whether the city’s political leanings have shifted since the wildfires.
Later, they highlight key moments from Michael J. Fox’s new memoir before turning to the NFL’s “Unc Bowl,” where veteran quarterbacks Aaron Rodgers and Joe Flacco faced off on Thursday Night Football. The hour wraps up with a #Wellness segment as the team discusses kids’ growing addiction to energy drinks, and Gary admits he’s keeping it to just one Celsius a day.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon, and you're listening to kf
I Am six forty the Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
I have no idea how old how old Derek Cheter is.
He's probably late forties.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
I think he's like your age.
Speaker 4 (00:19):
I guess he's seventy four, so he's fifty one years old.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Okay, okay, Oh, I have something nice to play for us.
You're saying thing, Oh go ahead.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
Cap.
Speaker 5 (00:32):
Oh. Gary, you're just like the rest of them. Shannon,
you are so you. I love you too. I can't
listen to anything else that makes me laugh as much
as you two. My god, you guys are great.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
That is nice.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Nice that the boss knows how to use talk bag.
That wasn't our boss doesn't listen to this show. Come on,
Oh you may break than never mind. He is a life, Yes,
a life. Malibu declared a state of emergency last month
and directed the sheriff to remove homeless encampments and arrest
(01:13):
people if they fail to leave.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Now.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
I don't spend a lot of time in Malibu. It's
so far away, it's so beautiful, and it's so expensive.
Those are just three of the reasons, but I would
assume that this probably has some pushback there amongst people
in Malibu. Now thirty fires are believed to have been
started by homeless people since twenty twenty one. It's unclear
(01:38):
at this point that the Sheriff's going to be arresting people.
Officers limited in what they can do because the county
has an edict that it doesn't criminalize homelessness, so their
hands are tied somewhat. But is there some pushback from
people that I would imagine our liberal in Malibu who
do not want to see this happen, that want people
to be free.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I think there is, but I think a lot of
that attitude has changed in the last nine months ten
months since the fires. And this is a gross generalization,
but if you're to paint people on the extreme west
side the Malibu, the Palisades, etc. As liberal politically who
(02:26):
believe that everybody deserves to live the way they choose
to live, or whatever justification they have for allowing people
to be homeless on the streets, they have the pleasure
of doing that without really seeing the consequences of that.
Because if you're homeless in the Palisades, which I assume
(02:48):
there's a couple and or homeless in Malibu. You're living
the absolute cream of the crop homeless life. They do
not get to see the drugged out, mentally ill, sick
people that live in other parts of Los Angeles. So
their view of it most in Malibu or not drugged out, well, uh,
(03:14):
I would argue that, yes, I think you're I think
you're Are you trying to sparkle up the homeless of Malibu?
P lipstick on that because I'm pretty sure if you're
living unhoused, no matter if you're in Malibu or skid Row,
there's some level of mental instability or chemical dependence regardless
of where you are. Yeah, I would say that, but
(03:36):
you have the wherewithal to be at Malibu, I mean,
like as opposed to skid Row, And I don't know
if that's just a luck thing or if you had
if you had the ability to make a decision to
get on a bus or hitch a ride or whatever
it is and end up in Malibu. But to go
back to the politics part of it, I think a
lot of people fell out of love with their local
(03:58):
government and local politics after the fire that there was
a realization of, oh, wait a minute, maybe they don't
have my best interests at heart, or even if they
do have their best interests at heart, maybe they're incapable
of protecting me in those emergency situations.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
They saw that in January.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
There's also a cost benefit analysis.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yes, we'd like people to be free if they are homeless, Okay,
we don't want to arrest them.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
But also the.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Realization of these people do start fires, and when you
see what happened in neighboring palisades, you.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Don't want that to happen.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
So you've got to kind of say, well, what do
you want to stand on that hill and die for
more people's freedom to live outside and do cooking fires,
or your home and your livelihood and your business and
your kid's future and all of those things. And very
quickly you become a little bit more conservative. I think
if both of those things are on the table and
you have to choose.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
Yeah, I just.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
I would be curious.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
I'd love to know from people who live over there
what their attitude is about this. I mean, this is
also one of those it feels like this is one
of those It's a little late now, isn't it. I mean,
now you're cracking down on homeless campfires. Now you're cracking
down on the outdoor cooking thing. Who you know, these
outdoor camping enthusiasts who take it upon themselves to build
(05:27):
fires wherever and whenever they can. You know, the safety
of everybody else be damned.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
All right?
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Coming up next, Michael J. Fox has a memoir out.
It's called Future Boy, and he talks about Family Ties.
He talks about Back to the Future. He talks about
filming them at the same time, and how that caused
some confusion, like when he was getting ready to film
a scene for Family Ties and he's going, well, where's
my camcorder. I gotta grab my ca campporter, and then
(05:54):
he's realizing, no, that's my character Back to the Future
that always has the camquarterer. That's not the character I'm
about to play. And some other discrepancies that happened in
Back to the Future. It's a fun little trip down
nostyalgia lane when we come back. Also your Chance at
one thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
Try to get Gary, Gary, Gary, Yes, you do not
need the Golden Bachelor, thank you, absolutely not.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Do not lower your standards to that trash.
Speaker 7 (07:26):
I know you love your wife and I know you're
happily married. Yes, but if you're ever not uh oh,
I'm just saying you you have options.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
I know you like them older, but if you ever
want to go younger, you.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Know, oh, let me know how much younger.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
I don't know. I'll have to email her and ask.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
No.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
I mean I would not email.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
I'll lead to email before I I won't.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
But but they're not trash. The ladies on Golden Bachelor
are not trash. They're lovely. I mean, some of them
are kind of trash. But the guy that's the true
that you're working, I don't think he's trash.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I just think that he is. He knows what he
wants and it's not that and it's obvious.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
One of the great Hollywood stories is the recasting of
Marty McFly from Back to the Future.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
And I didn't hear about this when it happened.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
It took me probably twenty years before I realized that
this was actually a thing. But Eric Stoltz, who was
probably most popular for the mask. Eric Stoltz was originally
cast as Marty McFly, and they had actually begun production
on Back to the Future for like six weeks before
they decided, you know what, it's just not working out.
(08:38):
It's not We're gonna have to reshoot all of those scenes.
We're gonna have to go with Michael J. Fox's Marty
McFly wait.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Was masked, So he played Rocky Dennis. Yeah, so was
mask what's the timing of that because mask came out
in eighty five. I want to so did Back to
the Future, right, Yeah? Yea, if I'm not mistaken, I
think that's right.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Very different, very different paths. Oh yeah, I mean it's
both of them in eighty five.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Yeah, so.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Had to pick.
Speaker 8 (09:15):
Well.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
One of the reasons that that was such a problem
for Michael J. Fox is he was in the middle
of doing Family Ties, like you said, and that even
when they did replace Eric Stoltz with Michael J. Fox,
it was still a problem. They were doing you know,
at night, they were doing Back to the Future stuff,
and then during the day he was working on Family
(09:35):
Ties and was getting very little sleep.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
But Michael J.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Fox in this article and Variety refers to reaching out
to Eric Stoltz to talk about this. I mean, I
don't know of any actors that go and reach out
to the people who either played the role before them
or turned down a role that then became super famous
for someone else. But he said, he's Eric has maintained
(10:02):
his silence on the subject for forty years, so I
was prepared for the likelihood that he would prefer to keep.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
It that way. Interesting he wrote him a letter. Michael J.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Fox wrote Eric Stults a letter and started with this,
if your answer is piss off and leave me alone,
that works too, And he said Michael J. Fox said
he did get a letter from Eric Stoltz that started
with piss off and leave me alone. I'm just kidding
and was happy that Michael J. Fox reached out to
him and said, you know, I'm more than happy to
(10:36):
talk about this, and it's you know, it changes.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
It changes both of their.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Careers for very different reasons. Perhaps now and you know,
maybe Back to the Future is not the mega hit
that it was. If Eric Stoltz plays Marty McFly maybe
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Who knows, right.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
But one of the other pieces that comes out in
the memoir is about the guitar that he grabs to
play Johnny B. Good and how that particular guitar had
not come out till nineteen fifty eight, but the scenes
from nineteen fifty five, and that that guitar is like
missing for some reason, its been missing for years.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
The Gibson e s Three forty five.
Speaker 7 (11:18):
That.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
There's a there was an article just the other day
about movie props, and obviously there's a there's a market
for famous movie props and special effects gear that makes
its way into you know, Harrison Ford's Phaser laser gun
from the Star Wars epic, and there's a whole market
(11:44):
out there for the counterfeits where people claim that this
was the actual lightsaber handle that Luke Skywalker used in
Empire Strikes Back, and it's obviously it's not those are
most of them are I believe, still owned by George
Lucas or at least Lucasfilm, And that would be curious
to see where all of these props end up going.
You can't just very well hide a guitar. It's not
(12:07):
like you know that that's going to disappear into that prop.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
I mean, I think we've got a little bit of insight.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
We've collected a number of props through the past decade
of this show. Whatever happened to the Lama, Like where
is that in the corner of the office.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
We still have that thing?
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Yes, of course, Good lord, how did that even begin?
The lama thing? Boom shaka lama? There's a lama. I know,
I wanted a real lama. Michelle got us the lama,
the boomshak alama? Where did that come from? Why is
it Thursdays? I've got so many questions. We should have
kept better notes on this show. But my point is
is we've got a number of props throughout the past
(12:46):
ten years that we've just either thrown out, given away,
or they still exist in our office and I don't
even know about it.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Well, that's funny because the lama is not a small thing,
and it's just sitting in the corner of the office.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
And you said, I don't even know where that's it is?
Where could it be?
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I usually use the office to throw my keys and
then pick up my keys at the end of the day.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
There's not a lot of time spent in I know there's.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Like a giant cut out of your face in there
as well.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
I know that's a I think that's gone. Maybe it
is still.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
There's like an irrational number of pictures of you in
our office.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Is that me?
Speaker 3 (13:19):
You spent a lot of time in there, just going
in there and looking at yourself.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Well, someone's got to.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
That's what your family is for. That's why you know
they spent a lot of Yeah, they love looking at
their dad. That's the first thing on their list. Of course,
they do high on their list.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Go listen to that woman's talk back again. You'll feel better.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
You can send that email in the break.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
What an instant classic of old guys in prime time?
Aaron Rodgers and Joe Flacco put on a show. Put
on a show last night. I just a random Thursday
night in October, and you've got Aaron Rodgers and Joe
Flacco putting on one to remember.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
We'll get into it.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Also, like you said, the reaction from from the Cleveland
Browns fans where where Cincinnati went into their quarterback room
to find somebody to replace Joe Burrow while he rehabs.
The reaction is pretty good, so we'll get into that
as well. Also, Aaron Rodgers' reaction to being tackled in
celebration by one of his linemen that didn't go well.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Hold on, now, don't you say, lineman, this guy's three bills?
I mean and he came down. All linemen are three bills.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
You're right, that's a good point. You could say that
you're a good excellent point.
Speaker 6 (14:31):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
But is it?
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Is it Jon bon Jovi or something? Adams Brian Adams me, good,
thank goodness. It sounds like a song that I heard
when I was twelve, and I was like, that sounds emotional.
I don't know what it means like love. It sounds
like love, It sounds like ag like the tortured love.
I don't know what that is. But one day at
(14:59):
the end of the movie, yes, that's the totally that's
the credits scene at the end of the movie.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Big thank you.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
By the way, everybody showed up at our news and
Bruise yesterday at BJ's in Huntington Beach. We had a
great time, and our next news and Bruise is coming up.
We are going to be live at BJ's Restaurant and
brew House in West Covina. They tell us that the
city apologized on behalf of all of the people of
West Covina, and the permits.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Have been is even if they even if they if
they come to us and they say, no, we're still
going to be there.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
So we will be there regardless.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
That is a good point. Even if we have to
illegally set up in the park, we will be.
Speaker 7 (15:36):
Able to do.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
And I'll set fire. I will set a fire, just just.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
To bring the fire and marshal out.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
Thursday, October thirtieth is when we'll be there at the
News and Bruise Bjy's in West Covina just off of
the freeway at Eastland Center. There it's easy to get
to a lot of parking, so so come on out
and say hi.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
So last night, Thursday night.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Football Dunk Bowl to UNC bull, right, So the surface
story is you've got Aaron Rodgers now Pittsburgh Steeler, the
resurgence of the quarterbacks of the past, as al Michaels
was talking about last night, You've got Aaron Rodgers. You've
got Joe Flacco, who you saw win a Super Bowl
with Baltimore one hundred years ago.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
It feels like and they are now.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Joe Flacco coming over from Cleveland to be at the
home for Cincinnati who was without Joe Burrow because they
refused to spend any money on lineman in Cincinnati. So
these two guys, it's all ha ha ha ha wink
wink old guys tonight.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
But my god, they put on a show.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
They put on a show, which is reason why they've
been in the NFL for so long. Even had Joe
Flacco scrambling for thirteen yards at one point, which was
odd and uncomfortable for all of us to watch. You
had Aaron Rodgers throwing bombs in the fourth quarter for
that comeback. You know, seven minutes on the clock, he's
throwing forty yard passes.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
One of his linemen, the lineman who.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Is tasked with protecting Aaron Rodgers' blind side, his left tackle,
Roderick Jones.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Comes out of nowhere.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
As they're running off the field to celebrate a first
down touchdown. It was a touchdown town.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
In the fourth quarter.
Speaker 9 (17:20):
Yeah, and in just tackles Aaron Rodgers in celebration from
his left side behind him, just like he is tasked
to never let happen to his quarterback.
Speaker 6 (17:31):
He does that.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
It was hilarious.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
You can't write this blocker needs a blind side blocker.
Speaker 6 (17:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Aaron Rodgers gets up like, what the what are you doing?
Speaker 1 (17:41):
You know, Aaron Rodgers seen every injury he's had, you know,
non contact injuries at this point, and what are you doing?
Speaker 4 (17:48):
It was great. I mentioned this earlier and I looked
it up.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Drew Brees and Tom Brady met three times because because
obviously this is one of the statistically the oldest combined
age for starting quarterbacks in the NFL, Drew Brees and
Tom Brady actually played three games where their combined age
was older than what we saw last night. So Aaron
Rodgers and Joe Flacco, I think, hold now the it
(18:14):
would be our arguably the fourth place in history. But
Drew Brees and Tom Brady, their last meeting was in
a playoff game between the Saints and the Buccaneers in
twenty one, where Drew Brees was forty two and Tom
Brady was forty three.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Oh my goodness, Wow, that just that.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Makes me hurt thinking about I mean, what those guys
go through. And granted, listen, when you're an older quarterback
like that, like you've been saying that, the there is
a premium placed on a strong offensive line to protect
that guy.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
They're also smarter, and you play smarter.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
You know how to avoid the hits, you know how
to avoid unnecessary contact.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
And those are two very smart people. I'm Tom Brady
Andrew Brees.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Now not smart was the Cleveland Browns sending their best quarterback,
Joe Flacco to a division rival in Cincinnati down the road.
Who may keep Cincinnati in this thing long enough for
Joe Burrow to come back in time for the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
Wouldn't that be incredible?
Speaker 2 (19:20):
If you're if you're a Cleveland Browns fan, you saw
Joe Flacco leave or you basically be sent away. And
this was the reaction this morning on Cleveland Sports Radio.
I didn't get the guy's name, but he was. He
was yelling too much and spitting all over the place
for me to get his name. This is how angry
they are in Cleveland at the owners of the Cleveland
(19:42):
brown How.
Speaker 8 (19:43):
Could you do that? Andrew? How could you do it?
Why on Earth did you feel the need to trade
this guy to a division opponent for a fifth round
draft big fireable offense? That is a fireable offense. I
want to know how much longer the owner's gonna watch
this crap, because the fans have had it.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
We deserve better.
Speaker 8 (20:08):
You just you worried more about your stadium than you
are your football team.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Wow, that was the rough temperature of Cleveland earlier.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Today the main sports Roy show, and Cleveland is on
the fan. It's the Ken Carmon Show with Anthony Lima
six to ten Eastern on ninety two three.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
Of the Fan.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
That's what you want to hear if you're a fan,
you know, like.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
That's what you should feel if you're a Yeah, I
mean how many everybody? Every team has done that, regardless
of what, regardless of sport, you've let go of someone.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Not to a division rival like that.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Sometimes, but Richard Sherman went from the Seahawks to the
forty nine ers.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Yeah, but mid season like that way, there's everybody's got some.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
And that was a mystery. That was Richard Sherman's call.
This was Cleveland's true.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
That's also a good point.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
But there's always somebody that you think, ah, that person
got away or they were just about to be great
and now they're wearing somebody else's uniform or the opposite,
which is we went out and got Raphael Devers or whoever,
and then they come and wear your uniform and then
they just stink up the place like they've never played
the sport before.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
You've got Tua and Dylan Gabriel battling in the matchup
for Cleveland. They play the Dolphins this week. Someone's getting fired.
Oh my goodness, that's that's the HR Bowl. So it's
going to bring in a box of Kleenex.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
Just said rough, that's that's rough.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
We have a Matt's a Dolphins fan that we have
on our show. Yeah, and we love him. Matt, Matt's
been he The thing about Matt is he wears Dolphins
gear not just during the season, even when they're awful, atrocious, abysmal.
You don't have to, You're right. I laid on a
(21:57):
little thick and I don't hate the Dolphins. Everybody hates Dolphins.
I don't hate the Dolphins, but they are currently atrocious.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
They're atrocious.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
But like, you wear your Dolphins gear every day, but
you do it not just during the season. You do
it in the off season a lot, which I support
more than anyone I think I know any NFL fan
who wears his Dolphins stuff in the off season or
any stuff for any team. You really you are a
rider die Dolphins fan and you and I support that.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Are How are you doing? How are you feeling? Are
you okay?
Speaker 7 (22:28):
No, No, it's been a rough Uh, it's been a
rough season. And every game feels like we get a
little bit of hope and then it's just it's just crushed.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Where do you find the hope right now?
Speaker 5 (22:38):
Is it?
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Darren Waller?
Speaker 6 (22:39):
Like?
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Where are you finding? You had some hope?
Speaker 7 (22:41):
I'm there with with Darren Waller. Tua, you know, still
I still believe in to U. People don't, but I do. Yeah,
you're the one, Okay, exactly.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Okay, what do you think about Tua calling out guys
for not going to the players meetings?
Speaker 3 (22:54):
That Tua, who is the leader, would.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Call like, he's essentially calling out the team for not
considering I'm the leader.
Speaker 7 (23:00):
He did apologize for that, but he did say also,
the media interpreted that a little bit differently than how
he had intended it to go over. I don't know
how he doesn't have that foresight this many years and
six years, and I think, but yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Yeah, the media is awful, especially sports media.
Speaker 4 (23:16):
They really are.
Speaker 8 (23:17):
They are.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
They're awful.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
They're hateful little people.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
Looking for him to screw up or say something wrong.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Exactly, Oh, totally, it's such a gotcha mentality.
Speaker 4 (23:26):
Just straight till the next Sunday, and it's going to happen.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
All right coming up nets Hey A reminder, by the way,
today is Friday, So which with what you learned this
week on the Gary and Shannon Show. Comes late in
the show. You can leave us a talkback message and
tell us what you learned this week while you're listening.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Probably a little thin, Probably I say that every week.
I don't know if there's much learning.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Doesn't you get surprised by the things that people catch
I do.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
I do get surprised. That is true.
Speaker 6 (23:51):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
There is that a fever dream too many times?
Speaker 2 (24:01):
I at least remember if it's a fever dream, it's
a very convincing one, because I have those images in
there too, somewhere tucked away and somehow in my head.
I'm not quite sure why.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Maybe I've just listened to you too much. I really
do like a show unless see you guys for a
little while now.
Speaker 6 (24:19):
And I'll be completely honest, I have intentionally missed a
meeting in order to listen to your show.
Speaker 4 (24:26):
Oh wow, that's great.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
I mean, I hope it's not an important meetings That's
quite one of the compliments that that you get if
you work on this job.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
And we don't get it all the time, but I
have heard it before.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Is people say they are driving somewhere and they're hearing
us talk about something, and then they get to their
location that they're destined for and they stay in the
car to finish hearing what we're talking about.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
That that's probably the greatest compliment.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
I feel that way when I if I'm listening to
a radio show and I'm like, I got to hear
this part, and then I'm like, oh, if they got
me to stay in the car.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
That's why you hear that so much about the Conway Show.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
We don't get that so much, but the Conway Show
gets that all the time. I mean, that show's littered
with with those kinds of comments. It's it's like they
it's it's like a Tuesday for them to get that compliment.
You know, they get it so much. That's not so
much so, but that's nice.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
But I will I will say I will say.
Speaker 4 (25:22):
Meeting that probably could have been an email.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
I too have missed a lot of meetings thankfully for
this show. For some reason, our company, like years has
their meetings.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
A lot of the meetings eleven during this show, so.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
We've missed a lot of those mandatory corporate meetings.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
And thank you Jesus.
Speaker 4 (25:41):
Darn it. Hey, it's time for our wellness segment. I
feel terrible. He spends most of his day at the
oppoice city, include a variety of activities and preferably some
exercise late in the afternoon.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
I never exercised a day of my life.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
We've just got to sit here and wait.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Every morning, I smoke a cigarette, and for lunch, I
eat a bacon sandwich and I usually drink my denfe.
Speaker 6 (26:09):
It's time for Gary and Shannon's periodic Guide for Wellness
and Personal Improvement.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
For your health, well parents, we have to kind of
keep an eye on what our kids are ingesting.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
There's a whole new push.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
About the safeguards that might exist the government could potentially
put in place around caffeinated energy drinks that kids are
sucking down like they never have before.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
I remember being a teenager when these things were kind
of coming out, or at least I realized their existence.
Red Bull was new, joelt Cola was in, and I
remember thinking, like having a you know, one of these things.
When I was like fifteen, Am I doing something wrong here?
(26:58):
It's like your fora and to dry you have a
red Bull. You're like, ah, this makes me feel super charged?
Is there something wrong with this? But now it's like
and feeling that. But you know me, I have like
a diet coke and I feel that way. But just
seems like the sensitivity doesn't exist for kids. They're pounding
these things and the tolerance is at the roof for
(27:21):
some post.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
And the reason they're drinking it. So it's caffeine affects
us all. It's an addictive substance. I mean, we all
know that if you have a cup of coffee or
two a day and you try to cut back, you
can feel it when you do that. CDC says up
to fifty percent of US teens consume energy drinks, and
that caffeine has sort of become a mixture, sorry, a
(27:42):
fixture among kids and teachers see this. Teachers and coaches,
for example, kids will complain about being tired because they're overscheduled,
or they had practice, or they stayed up late to
do homework.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
So they bring in a.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Red bull and they drink it, and then they get tired.
In the afternoon, so they have another Red Bull or
another Monster energy drink or another Bang or whatever, and
it just this spiral continues as opposed to finding ways
to a cut down on your schedule as a kid
or b learn how to put the food into your
(28:17):
body that prevents that kind of fatigue at different times
of the day.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
And how many energy drinks do you drink a day?
Speaker 3 (28:27):
How many celsiuses did you have yesterday?
Speaker 4 (28:30):
One?
Speaker 3 (28:31):
Ah, just the one.
Speaker 4 (28:33):
Just the one. I will never have more than one
a day.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Ooh.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
And that's when you start saying things like that, it
sounds like you're making agreements with the devil.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
I will never explain my phone.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
I'll never finish an entire twelve pack. I pross. No,
I have one a day, maybe because I know that
those are not great.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
You're up to one a day?
Speaker 7 (28:58):
Is that right?
Speaker 1 (28:58):
You say it like that for No, I'm I'm just monitoring,
you know, I'm just well, I appreciate one a day
is not bad. But you used to be like.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
One a week, right, No. I.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
Once I was introduced to them, I would say one
a day. It was kind of my I fell in
love right away.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
I was booked, which flavor do you like or does
it matter?
Speaker 2 (29:17):
I'll try them all. I'll try them all. They have
some pretty weird ones, and I've tried them all. I
don't hate any of them because, to be honest, they
all kind of taste.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
Alike after a while.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
Yeah, But when you're talking about kids and teenagers that
are that are using this stuff, caffeine when you're growing,
Caffeine when you're developing can have a bigger impact than
when you're forty seven years old and you drink a
couple of cups of coffee a day.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Your breast would not be the breast you have today
if you were hitting the celsius when you were fifteen.
Speaker 4 (29:52):
At least.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Heather laughed at that way.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
Well, I'm looking at my breast right now trying to
figure out which where would they have gone whatever it
was they developing.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
It cracks be up.
Speaker 4 (30:00):
Oh, oh, I see what you're saying.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
You said developing earlier in the week, and I don't know.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
It just reminds me of like health class when I
was twelve or something, ah.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
And there was one girl in the class who was
developing right.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
Right, developing. It was a very awkward word to hear
when you were twelve.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Do you think school districts should not sell caffeinated products
on campus?
Speaker 1 (30:21):
I think they should not, but I just you know,
but I agree, you do agree. Okay, you have a
child that's of this age, so why why do you
think so, Heather?
Speaker 10 (30:33):
It's just there Everything about them is terrible for you,
but you're just so bad for you, and you're their
little young developing bodies. Even teachers are like, they don't
focus in class. They it just they're just so bad. Yeah,
my scientific answer.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
That, I mean, I used to eat ho hoose and
ding Dong's and who Who's and all the things out
of it I wrap out of the vending machine. So
it's like, you know, they've been peddling crap at school,
at public schools forever.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
It's like, where'd you draw the line?
Speaker 1 (31:03):
You know, I'm not asking for keenwab bowls in the
vending machine, but it seems like energy drinks cross that line.
Speaker 5 (31:11):
Right.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
You can sell like a coke or a doctor pepper,
but when you're selling you know, super xxx stay up
all night energy drinks, that's probably over the line.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
And a Snickers bar.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
That that's a that'll that's a nice little treat that
sounds like an XXX.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Energy drink and a Snicker's.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Hell yeah, I think that's my brother's lunch every day
now and he's fifty two.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
Uh, we'll do We'll do swamp Watch when we come
back to Gary and Shannon. You've been listening to The
Gary and Shannon Show. 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 kf
I Am six forty the Gary and Shannon Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
I have no idea how old how old Derek Cheter is.
He's probably late forties.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
I think he's like your age.
Speaker 4 (00:19):
I guess he's seventy four, so he's fifty one years old.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
Yeah, there you go.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Okay, okay, Oh, I have something nice to play for us.
You're saying thing, Oh go ahead.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
Cap.
Speaker 5 (00:32):
Oh. Gary, you're just like the rest of them. Shannon,
you are so you. I love you too. I can't
listen to anything else that makes me laugh as much
as you two. My god, you guys are great.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
That is nice.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Nice that the boss knows how to use talk bag.
That wasn't our boss doesn't listen to this show. Come on,
Oh you may break than never mind. He is a life, Yes,
a life. Malibu declared a state of emergency last month
and directed the sheriff to remove homeless encampments and arrest
(01:13):
people if they fail to leave.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Now.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
I don't spend a lot of time in Malibu. It's
so far away, it's so beautiful, and it's so expensive.
Those are just three of the reasons, but I would
assume that this probably has some pushback there amongst people
in Malibu. Now thirty fires are believed to have been
started by homeless people since twenty twenty one. It's unclear
(01:38):
at this point that the Sheriff's going to be arresting people.
Officers limited in what they can do because the county
has an edict that it doesn't criminalize homelessness, so their
hands are tied somewhat. But is there some pushback from
people that I would imagine our liberal in Malibu who
do not want to see this happen, that want people
to be free.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I think there is, but I think a lot of
that attitude has changed in the last nine months ten
months since the fires. And this is a gross generalization,
but if you're to paint people on the extreme west
side the Malibu, the Palisades, etc. As liberal politically who
(02:26):
believe that everybody deserves to live the way they choose
to live, or whatever justification they have for allowing people
to be homeless on the streets, they have the pleasure
of doing that without really seeing the consequences of that.
Because if you're homeless in the Palisades, which I assume
(02:48):
there's a couple and or homeless in Malibu. You're living
the absolute cream of the crop homeless life. They do
not get to see the drugged out, mentally ill, sick
people that live in other parts of Los Angeles. So
their view of it most in Malibu or not drugged out, well, uh,
(03:14):
I would argue that, yes, I think you're I think
you're Are you trying to sparkle up the homeless of Malibu?
P lipstick on that because I'm pretty sure if you're
living unhoused, no matter if you're in Malibu or skid Row,
there's some level of mental instability or chemical dependence regardless
of where you are. Yeah, I would say that, but
(03:36):
you have the wherewithal to be at Malibu, I mean,
like as opposed to skid Row, And I don't know
if that's just a luck thing or if you had
if you had the ability to make a decision to
get on a bus or hitch a ride or whatever
it is and end up in Malibu. But to go
back to the politics part of it, I think a
lot of people fell out of love with their local
(03:58):
government and local politics after the fire that there was
a realization of, oh, wait a minute, maybe they don't
have my best interests at heart, or even if they
do have their best interests at heart, maybe they're incapable
of protecting me in those emergency situations.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
They saw that in January.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
There's also a cost benefit analysis.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yes, we'd like people to be free if they are homeless, Okay,
we don't want to arrest them.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
But also the.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Realization of these people do start fires, and when you
see what happened in neighboring palisades, you.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Don't want that to happen.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
So you've got to kind of say, well, what do
you want to stand on that hill and die for
more people's freedom to live outside and do cooking fires,
or your home and your livelihood and your business and
your kid's future and all of those things. And very
quickly you become a little bit more conservative. I think
if both of those things are on the table and
you have to choose.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
Yeah, I just.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
I would be curious.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
I'd love to know from people who live over there
what their attitude is about this. I mean, this is
also one of those it feels like this is one
of those It's a little late now, isn't it. I mean,
now you're cracking down on homeless campfires. Now you're cracking
down on the outdoor cooking thing. Who you know, these
outdoor camping enthusiasts who take it upon themselves to build
(05:27):
fires wherever and whenever they can. You know, the safety
of everybody else be damned.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
All right?
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Coming up next, Michael J. Fox has a memoir out.
It's called Future Boy, and he talks about Family Ties.
He talks about Back to the Future. He talks about
filming them at the same time, and how that caused
some confusion, like when he was getting ready to film
a scene for Family Ties and he's going, well, where's
my camcorder. I gotta grab my ca campporter, and then
(05:54):
he's realizing, no, that's my character Back to the Future
that always has the camquarterer. That's not the character I'm
about to play. And some other discrepancies that happened in
Back to the Future. It's a fun little trip down
nostyalgia lane when we come back. Also your Chance at

Speaker 1 (07:17):
Try to get Gary, Gary, Gary, Yes, you do not
need the Golden Bachelor, thank you, absolutely not.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Do not lower your standards to that trash.
Speaker 7 (07:26):
I know you love your wife and I know you're
happily married. Yes, but if you're ever not uh oh,
I'm just saying you you have options.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
I know you like them older, but if you ever
want to go younger, you.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Know, oh, let me know how much younger.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
I don't know. I'll have to email her and ask.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
No.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
I mean I would not email.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
I'll lead to email before I I won't.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
But but they're not trash. The ladies on Golden Bachelor
are not trash. They're lovely. I mean, some of them
are kind of trash. But the guy that's the true
that you're working, I don't think he's trash.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I just think that he is. He knows what he
wants and it's not that and it's obvious.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
One of the great Hollywood stories is the recasting of
Marty McFly from Back to the Future.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
And I didn't hear about this when it happened.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
It took me probably twenty years before I realized that
this was actually a thing. But Eric Stoltz, who was
probably most popular for the mask. Eric Stoltz was originally
cast as Marty McFly, and they had actually begun production
on Back to the Future for like six weeks before
they decided, you know what, it's just not working out.
(08:38):
It's not We're gonna have to reshoot all of those scenes.
We're gonna have to go with Michael J. Fox's Marty
McFly wait.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Was masked, So he played Rocky Dennis. Yeah, so was
mask what's the timing of that because mask came out
in eighty five. I want to so did Back to
the Future, right, Yeah? Yea, if I'm not mistaken, I
think that's right.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Very different, very different paths. Oh yeah, I mean it's
both of them in eighty five.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Yeah, so.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Had to pick.
Speaker 8 (09:15):
Well.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
One of the reasons that that was such a problem
for Michael J. Fox is he was in the middle
of doing Family Ties, like you said, and that even
when they did replace Eric Stoltz with Michael J. Fox,
it was still a problem. They were doing you know,
at night, they were doing Back to the Future stuff,
and then during the day he was working on Family
(09:35):
Ties and was getting very little sleep.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
But Michael J.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Fox in this article and Variety refers to reaching out
to Eric Stoltz to talk about this. I mean, I
don't know of any actors that go and reach out
to the people who either played the role before them
or turned down a role that then became super famous
for someone else. But he said, he's Eric has maintained
(10:02):
his silence on the subject for forty years, so I
was prepared for the likelihood that he would prefer to keep.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
It that way. Interesting he wrote him a letter. Michael J.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Fox wrote Eric Stults a letter and started with this,
if your answer is piss off and leave me alone,
that works too, And he said Michael J. Fox said
he did get a letter from Eric Stoltz that started
with piss off and leave me alone. I'm just kidding
and was happy that Michael J. Fox reached out to
him and said, you know, I'm more than happy to
(10:36):
talk about this, and it's you know, it changes.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
It changes both of their.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Careers for very different reasons. Perhaps now and you know,
maybe Back to the Future is not the mega hit
that it was. If Eric Stoltz plays Marty McFly maybe
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Who knows, right.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
But one of the other pieces that comes out in
the memoir is about the guitar that he grabs to
play Johnny B. Good and how that particular guitar had
not come out till nineteen fifty eight, but the scenes
from nineteen fifty five, and that that guitar is like
missing for some reason, its been missing for years.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
The Gibson e s Three forty five.
Speaker 7 (11:18):
That.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
There's a there was an article just the other day
about movie props, and obviously there's a there's a market
for famous movie props and special effects gear that makes
its way into you know, Harrison Ford's Phaser laser gun
from the Star Wars epic, and there's a whole market
(11:44):
out there for the counterfeits where people claim that this
was the actual lightsaber handle that Luke Skywalker used in
Empire Strikes Back, and it's obviously it's not those are
most of them are I believe, still owned by George
Lucas or at least Lucasfilm, And that would be curious
to see where all of these props end up going.
You can't just very well hide a guitar. It's not
(12:07):
like you know that that's going to disappear into that prop.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
I mean, I think we've got a little bit of insight.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
We've collected a number of props through the past decade
of this show. Whatever happened to the Lama, Like where
is that in the corner of the office.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
We still have that thing?
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Yes, of course, Good lord, how did that even begin?
The lama thing? Boom shaka lama? There's a lama. I know,
I wanted a real lama. Michelle got us the lama,
the boomshak alama? Where did that come from? Why is
it Thursdays? I've got so many questions. We should have
kept better notes on this show. But my point is
is we've got a number of props throughout the past
(12:46):
ten years that we've just either thrown out, given away,
or they still exist in our office and I don't
even know about it.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Well, that's funny because the lama is not a small thing,
and it's just sitting in the corner of the office.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
And you said, I don't even know where that's it is?
Where could it be?
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I usually use the office to throw my keys and
then pick up my keys at the end of the day.
Speaker 4 (13:06):
There's not a lot of time spent in I know there's.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Like a giant cut out of your face in there
as well.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
I know that's a I think that's gone. Maybe it
is still.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
There's like an irrational number of pictures of you in
our office.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Is that me?
Speaker 3 (13:19):
You spent a lot of time in there, just going
in there and looking at yourself.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Well, someone's got to.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
That's what your family is for. That's why you know
they spent a lot of Yeah, they love looking at
their dad. That's the first thing on their list. Of course,
they do high on their list.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Go listen to that woman's talk back again. You'll feel better.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
You can send that email in the break.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
What an instant classic of old guys in prime time?
Aaron Rodgers and Joe Flacco put on a show. Put
on a show last night. I just a random Thursday
night in October, and you've got Aaron Rodgers and Joe
Flacco putting on one to remember.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
We'll get into it.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Also, like you said, the reaction from from the Cleveland
Browns fans where where Cincinnati went into their quarterback room
to find somebody to replace Joe Burrow while he rehabs.
The reaction is pretty good, so we'll get into that
as well. Also, Aaron Rodgers' reaction to being tackled in
celebration by one of his linemen that didn't go well.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Hold on, now, don't you say, lineman, this guy's three bills?
I mean and he came down. All linemen are three bills.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
You're right, that's a good point. You could say that
you're a good excellent point.
Speaker 6 (14:31):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
But is it?
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Is it Jon bon Jovi or something? Adams Brian Adams me, good,
thank goodness. It sounds like a song that I heard
when I was twelve, and I was like, that sounds emotional.
I don't know what it means like love. It sounds
like love, It sounds like ag like the tortured love.
I don't know what that is. But one day at
(14:59):
the end of the movie, yes, that's the totally that's
the credits scene at the end of the movie.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Big thank you.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
By the way, everybody showed up at our news and
Bruise yesterday at BJ's in Huntington Beach. We had a
great time, and our next news and Bruise is coming up.
We are going to be live at BJ's Restaurant and
brew House in West Covina. They tell us that the
city apologized on behalf of all of the people of
West Covina, and the permits.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Have been is even if they even if they if
they come to us and they say, no, we're still
going to be there.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
So we will be there regardless.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
That is a good point. Even if we have to
illegally set up in the park, we will be.
Speaker 7 (15:36):
Able to do.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
And I'll set fire. I will set a fire, just just.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
To bring the fire and marshal out.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
Thursday, October thirtieth is when we'll be there at the
News and Bruise Bjy's in West Covina just off of
the freeway at Eastland Center. There it's easy to get
to a lot of parking, so so come on out
and say hi.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
So last night, Thursday night.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Football Dunk Bowl to UNC bull, right, So the surface
story is you've got Aaron Rodgers now Pittsburgh Steeler, the
resurgence of the quarterbacks of the past, as al Michaels
was talking about last night, You've got Aaron Rodgers. You've
got Joe Flacco, who you saw win a Super Bowl
with Baltimore one hundred years ago.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
It feels like and they are now.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Joe Flacco coming over from Cleveland to be at the
home for Cincinnati who was without Joe Burrow because they
refused to spend any money on lineman in Cincinnati. So
these two guys, it's all ha ha ha ha wink
wink old guys tonight.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
But my god, they put on a show.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
They put on a show, which is reason why they've
been in the NFL for so long. Even had Joe
Flacco scrambling for thirteen yards at one point, which was
odd and uncomfortable for all of us to watch. You
had Aaron Rodgers throwing bombs in the fourth quarter for
that comeback. You know, seven minutes on the clock, he's
throwing forty yard passes.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
One of his linemen, the lineman who.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Is tasked with protecting Aaron Rodgers' blind side, his left tackle,
Roderick Jones.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Comes out of nowhere.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
As they're running off the field to celebrate a first
down touchdown. It was a touchdown town.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
In the fourth quarter.
Speaker 9 (17:20):
Yeah, and in just tackles Aaron Rodgers in celebration from
his left side behind him, just like he is tasked
to never let happen to his quarterback.
Speaker 6 (17:31):
He does that.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
It was hilarious.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
You can't write this blocker needs a blind side blocker.
Speaker 6 (17:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Aaron Rodgers gets up like, what the what are you doing?
Speaker 1 (17:41):
You know, Aaron Rodgers seen every injury he's had, you know,
non contact injuries at this point, and what are you doing?
Speaker 4 (17:48):
It was great. I mentioned this earlier and I looked
it up.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Drew Brees and Tom Brady met three times because because
obviously this is one of the statistically the oldest combined
age for starting quarterbacks in the NFL, Drew Brees and
Tom Brady actually played three games where their combined age
was older than what we saw last night. So Aaron
Rodgers and Joe Flacco, I think, hold now the it
(18:14):
would be our arguably the fourth place in history. But
Drew Brees and Tom Brady, their last meeting was in
a playoff game between the Saints and the Buccaneers in
twenty one, where Drew Brees was forty two and Tom
Brady was forty three.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Oh my goodness, Wow, that just that.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Makes me hurt thinking about I mean, what those guys
go through. And granted, listen, when you're an older quarterback
like that, like you've been saying that, the there is
a premium placed on a strong offensive line to protect
that guy.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
They're also smarter, and you play smarter.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
You know how to avoid the hits, you know how
to avoid unnecessary contact.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
And those are two very smart people. I'm Tom Brady
Andrew Brees.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Now not smart was the Cleveland Browns sending their best quarterback,
Joe Flacco to a division rival in Cincinnati down the road.
Who may keep Cincinnati in this thing long enough for
Joe Burrow to come back in time for the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
Wouldn't that be incredible?
Speaker 2 (19:20):
If you're if you're a Cleveland Browns fan, you saw
Joe Flacco leave or you basically be sent away. And
this was the reaction this morning on Cleveland Sports Radio.
I didn't get the guy's name, but he was. He
was yelling too much and spitting all over the place
for me to get his name. This is how angry
they are in Cleveland at the owners of the Cleveland
(19:42):
brown How.
Speaker 8 (19:43):
Could you do that? Andrew? How could you do it?
Why on Earth did you feel the need to trade
this guy to a division opponent for a fifth round
draft big fireable offense? That is a fireable offense. I
want to know how much longer the owner's gonna watch
this crap, because the fans have had it.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
We deserve better.
Speaker 8 (20:08):
You just you worried more about your stadium than you
are your football team.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Wow, that was the rough temperature of Cleveland earlier.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Today the main sports Roy show, and Cleveland is on
the fan. It's the Ken Carmon Show with Anthony Lima
six to ten Eastern on ninety two three.
Speaker 3 (20:24):
Of the Fan.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
That's what you want to hear if you're a fan,
you know, like.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
That's what you should feel if you're a Yeah, I
mean how many everybody? Every team has done that, regardless
of what, regardless of sport, you've let go of someone.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Not to a division rival like that.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Sometimes, but Richard Sherman went from the Seahawks to the
forty nine ers.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Yeah, but mid season like that way, there's everybody's got some.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
And that was a mystery. That was Richard Sherman's call.
This was Cleveland's true.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
That's also a good point.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
But there's always somebody that you think, ah, that person
got away or they were just about to be great
and now they're wearing somebody else's uniform or the opposite,
which is we went out and got Raphael Devers or whoever,
and then they come and wear your uniform and then
they just stink up the place like they've never played
the sport before.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
You've got Tua and Dylan Gabriel battling in the matchup
for Cleveland. They play the Dolphins this week. Someone's getting fired.
Oh my goodness, that's that's the HR Bowl. So it's
going to bring in a box of Kleenex.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
Just said rough, that's that's rough.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
We have a Matt's a Dolphins fan that we have
on our show. Yeah, and we love him. Matt, Matt's
been he The thing about Matt is he wears Dolphins
gear not just during the season, even when they're awful, atrocious, abysmal.
You don't have to, You're right. I laid on a
(21:57):
little thick and I don't hate the Dolphins. Everybody hates Dolphins.
I don't hate the Dolphins, but they are currently atrocious.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
They're atrocious.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
But like, you wear your Dolphins gear every day, but
you do it not just during the season. You do
it in the off season a lot, which I support
more than anyone I think I know any NFL fan
who wears his Dolphins stuff in the off season or
any stuff for any team. You really you are a
rider die Dolphins fan and you and I support that.
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Are How are you doing? How are you feeling? Are
you okay?
Speaker 7 (22:28):
No, No, it's been a rough Uh, it's been a
rough season. And every game feels like we get a
little bit of hope and then it's just it's just crushed.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Where do you find the hope right now?
Speaker 5 (22:38):
Is it?
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Darren Waller?
Speaker 6 (22:39):
Like?
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Where are you finding? You had some hope?
Speaker 7 (22:41):
I'm there with with Darren Waller. Tua, you know, still
I still believe in to U. People don't, but I do. Yeah,
you're the one, Okay, exactly.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Okay, what do you think about Tua calling out guys
for not going to the players meetings?
Speaker 3 (22:54):
That Tua, who is the leader, would.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Call like, he's essentially calling out the team for not
considering I'm the leader.
Speaker 7 (23:00):
He did apologize for that, but he did say also,
the media interpreted that a little bit differently than how
he had intended it to go over. I don't know
how he doesn't have that foresight this many years and
six years, and I think, but yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Yeah, the media is awful, especially sports media.
Speaker 4 (23:16):
They really are.
Speaker 8 (23:17):
They are.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
They're awful.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
They're hateful little people.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
Looking for him to screw up or say something wrong.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Exactly, Oh, totally, it's such a gotcha mentality.
Speaker 4 (23:26):
Just straight till the next Sunday, and it's going to happen.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
All right coming up nets Hey A reminder, by the way,
today is Friday, So which with what you learned this
week on the Gary and Shannon Show. Comes late in
the show. You can leave us a talkback message and
tell us what you learned this week while you're listening.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Probably a little thin, Probably I say that every week.
I don't know if there's much learning.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Doesn't you get surprised by the things that people catch
I do.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
I do get surprised. That is true.
Speaker 6 (23:51):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
There is that a fever dream too many times?
Speaker 2 (24:01):
I at least remember if it's a fever dream, it's
a very convincing one, because I have those images in
there too, somewhere tucked away and somehow in my head.
I'm not quite sure why.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Maybe I've just listened to you too much. I really
do like a show unless see you guys for a
little while now.
Speaker 6 (24:19):
And I'll be completely honest, I have intentionally missed a
meeting in order to listen to your show.
Speaker 4 (24:26):
Oh wow, that's great.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
I mean, I hope it's not an important meetings That's
quite one of the compliments that that you get if
you work on this job.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
And we don't get it all the time, but I
have heard it before.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Is people say they are driving somewhere and they're hearing
us talk about something, and then they get to their
location that they're destined for and they stay in the
car to finish hearing what we're talking about.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
That that's probably the greatest compliment.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
I feel that way when I if I'm listening to
a radio show and I'm like, I got to hear
this part, and then I'm like, oh, if they got
me to stay in the car.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
That's why you hear that so much about the Conway Show.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
We don't get that so much, but the Conway Show
gets that all the time. I mean, that show's littered
with with those kinds of comments. It's it's like they
it's it's like a Tuesday for them to get that compliment.
You know, they get it so much. That's not so
much so, but that's nice.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
But I will I will say I will say.
Speaker 4 (25:22):
Meeting that probably could have been an email.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
I too have missed a lot of meetings thankfully for
this show. For some reason, our company, like years has
their meetings.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
A lot of the meetings eleven during this show, so.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
We've missed a lot of those mandatory corporate meetings.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
And thank you Jesus.
Speaker 4 (25:41):
Darn it. Hey, it's time for our wellness segment. I
feel terrible. He spends most of his day at the
oppoice city, include a variety of activities and preferably some
exercise late in the afternoon.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
I never exercised a day of my life.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
We've just got to sit here and wait.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Every morning, I smoke a cigarette, and for lunch, I
eat a bacon sandwich and I usually drink my denfe.
Speaker 6 (26:09):
It's time for Gary and Shannon's periodic Guide for Wellness
and Personal Improvement.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
For your health, well parents, we have to kind of
keep an eye on what our kids are ingesting.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
There's a whole new push.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
About the safeguards that might exist the government could potentially
put in place around caffeinated energy drinks that kids are
sucking down like they never have before.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
I remember being a teenager when these things were kind
of coming out, or at least I realized their existence.
Red Bull was new, joelt Cola was in, and I
remember thinking, like having a you know, one of these things.
When I was like fifteen, Am I doing something wrong here?
(26:58):
It's like your fora and to dry you have a
red Bull. You're like, ah, this makes me feel super charged?
Is there something wrong with this? But now it's like
and feeling that. But you know me, I have like
a diet coke and I feel that way. But just
seems like the sensitivity doesn't exist for kids. They're pounding
these things and the tolerance is at the roof for
(27:21):
some post.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
And the reason they're drinking it. So it's caffeine affects
us all. It's an addictive substance. I mean, we all
know that if you have a cup of coffee or
two a day and you try to cut back, you
can feel it when you do that. CDC says up
to fifty percent of US teens consume energy drinks, and
that caffeine has sort of become a mixture, sorry, a
(27:42):
fixture among kids and teachers see this. Teachers and coaches,
for example, kids will complain about being tired because they're overscheduled,
or they had practice, or they stayed up late to
do homework.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
So they bring in a.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Red bull and they drink it, and then they get tired.
In the afternoon, so they have another Red Bull or
another Monster energy drink or another Bang or whatever, and
it just this spiral continues as opposed to finding ways
to a cut down on your schedule as a kid
or b learn how to put the food into your
(28:17):
body that prevents that kind of fatigue at different times
of the day.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
And how many energy drinks do you drink a day?
Speaker 3 (28:27):
How many celsiuses did you have yesterday?
Speaker 4 (28:30):
One?
Speaker 3 (28:31):
Ah, just the one.
Speaker 4 (28:33):
Just the one. I will never have more than one
a day.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Ooh.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
And that's when you start saying things like that, it
sounds like you're making agreements with the devil.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
I will never explain my phone.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
I'll never finish an entire twelve pack. I pross. No,
I have one a day, maybe because I know that
those are not great.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
You're up to one a day?
Speaker 7 (28:58):
Is that right?
Speaker 1 (28:58):
You say it like that for No, I'm I'm just monitoring,
you know, I'm just well, I appreciate one a day
is not bad. But you used to be like.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
One a week, right, No. I.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
Once I was introduced to them, I would say one
a day. It was kind of my I fell in
love right away.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
I was booked, which flavor do you like or does
it matter?
Speaker 2 (29:17):
I'll try them all. I'll try them all. They have
some pretty weird ones, and I've tried them all. I
don't hate any of them because, to be honest, they
all kind of taste.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
Alike after a while.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
Yeah, But when you're talking about kids and teenagers that
are that are using this stuff, caffeine when you're growing,
Caffeine when you're developing can have a bigger impact than
when you're forty seven years old and you drink a
couple of cups of coffee a day.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Your breast would not be the breast you have today
if you were hitting the celsius when you were fifteen.
Speaker 4 (29:52):
At least.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Heather laughed at that way.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
Well, I'm looking at my breast right now trying to
figure out which where would they have gone whatever it
was they developing.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
It cracks be up.
Speaker 4 (30:00):
Oh, oh, I see what you're saying.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
You said developing earlier in the week, and I don't know.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
It just reminds me of like health class when I
was twelve or something, ah.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
And there was one girl in the class who was
developing right.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
Right, developing. It was a very awkward word to hear
when you were twelve.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Do you think school districts should not sell caffeinated products
on campus?
Speaker 1 (30:21):
I think they should not, but I just you know,
but I agree, you do agree. Okay, you have a
child that's of this age, so why why do you
think so, Heather?
Speaker 10 (30:33):
It's just there Everything about them is terrible for you,
but you're just so bad for you, and you're their
little young developing bodies. Even teachers are like, they don't
focus in class. They it just they're just so bad. Yeah,
my scientific answer.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
That, I mean, I used to eat ho hoose and
ding Dong's and who Who's and all the things out
of it I wrap out of the vending machine. So
it's like, you know, they've been peddling crap at school,
at public schools forever.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
It's like, where'd you draw the line?
Speaker 1 (31:03):
You know, I'm not asking for keenwab bowls in the
vending machine, but it seems like energy drinks cross that line.
Speaker 5 (31:11):
Right.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
You can sell like a coke or a doctor pepper,
but when you're selling you know, super xxx stay up
all night energy drinks, that's probably over the line.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
And a Snickers bar.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
That that's a that'll that's a nice little treat that
sounds like an XXX.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Energy drink and a Snicker's.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Hell yeah, I think that's my brother's lunch every day
now and he's fifty two.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
