Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
The news out of Afghanistan doesn't get any better. Taliban
Now says that the death toll from that major earthquake
there from Sunday has passed fourteen hundred, about three thousand injured,
and those figures are just for one province. This big
six point zero magnitude quake hit several provinces Sunday night,
causing extensive damage. Flattened villages, trapped people under the rubble

(00:32):
of homes constructed mostly out of mud, bricks and wood
obviously couldn't withstand the shock. We've seen a little bit
of monsoonal moisture coming up over southern California last probably
is going to last through Thursday, which is going to
increase the chance of thunderstorms. We've already seen a handful
of strong rain cells coming through.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
Forecasters said.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
The increase in moisture will bring about a thirty to
fifty percent chance of thunderstorms up in the av and
through the San Gabriel Mountains late tomorrow night. Also a
risk of some pretty heavy downpourse, flash flooding, debrief flows,
wind gusts. All of them are possible as a result
of the monsoonal moisture coming up.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
President Trump is scheduled to make an unspecified announcement any
day now, after days of rumors about his health. It's
where we kick off swamp watch.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
I'm a politician, which means I'm a cheat and a liar.
And when I'm not kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipops.

Speaker 4 (01:27):
Yeah, we got the real problem is that our leaders
are done.

Speaker 5 (01:30):
The other side never quits.

Speaker 6 (01:32):
So what I'm not going anywhere so that now you
train the squaw.

Speaker 3 (01:38):
I can imagine what can be and be unburdened by
what has been.

Speaker 7 (01:41):
You know, nervants have always been gone at President, They're
not stupid.

Speaker 8 (01:45):
A political flunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
Have the people voted for you? With no swamp watch,
they're all counting on. Well, it's not going to start
on time. It never starts on time.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
But the President is expected to make an announcement from
the Oval Office here in a few minutes. And yes,
it follows a very weird weekend of people theorizing that
perhaps the president was not well at best and dead
at worst, and the evidence that they were using was

(02:16):
that he didn't have anything on his public schedule for
a few days after last week's cabinet meeting, where he
sat there in the cabinet room for about three plus
hours and was given adulation for all of the stuff
that he's been doing.

Speaker 1 (02:30):
Thousands of posts shared on x featuring hashtags including hashtag
where is Trump, hashtag trump died in all caps posts
speculating about Trump's possible demise had acquired over one point
three million with an m user engagements as of Saturday morning.
That's according to groc Because apparently we're doing things like

(02:53):
saying in the news.

Speaker 5 (02:55):
According to grow, are we doing this?

Speaker 1 (02:59):
This is the break news of this story according to Groch,
to Grock, as opposed to according to The New York Times,
according to sources close to the White House, it's according
to a bot.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
There's a lot of problems I have with this article
because it is written by Newsweek. It gives a little
bit too much. It gives a little bit too much
energy to the hashtags that you mentioned, whereas Trump and
hashtag trump died well.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
Newsweek has lost its any credibility years ago.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
Yeah, clearly, but that may go to why they said.
According to Rock, Trump wrote on social media in response
to somebody said that the media freaks out if he
disappears for twenty four hours quote all caps.

Speaker 3 (03:48):
Never felt better in my life. There have been.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
Questions about, for example, the bruising on his hand that
the White House originally said was because of a very
aggressive hand shaking regimen that he's involved with, because you know,
he's the president. There's also, you know, medicines that show
up in his yearly physical that talk about you know,

(04:14):
he's on a statin, he's on other blood thinners when
combined could cause bruising like this.

Speaker 3 (04:20):
My dad was on something like that.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
He also had bruising on his hands, simply because the
blood thinners, the blood thinner, blood thinning qualities of some
of the medications. The other issue is, I want to
say venous insufficiency. I'm not even sure the right medical term,
but his ankles have been swollen pretty bad, and they're concerned.

(04:44):
The concern is that in the guy his age, that
could be a sign that his heart's not working right now.
If there's anybody who has access to healthcare on a
regular basis. It's the President of the United States, and
I'm not concerned about his health. I do think it's
weird that he was away for four days or five

(05:06):
days and really didn't make any appearances, because this is
a guy who loves the cameras. I mean, you have
to acknowledge that that is a strange amount of time
for Donald Trump to not appear in uh in public.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Ariansa al gets work done. What do you mean, well,
I mean he is a vain person. He gets, you know,
the same things that all the Gavin Newsom gets. I
mean they get the fillers, they get the injectables, they
get a little nip, a little tuck, a little little refreshment.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
If I were to go and get the boattox that
Richie wants me to get, that would be far out
of long out of commission.

Speaker 3 (05:41):
Am I going?

Speaker 5 (05:42):
That's five minutes.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
That's not the same thing.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
But the new like facelifts they do and stuff that
aren't like the facelifts of your grandmother. Sure, because Dixie,
you know, hit up her pop plastic surgeon all.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
The time, she had one on retainer.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
But uh, they you know, maybe out of commission for
a couple of days if you were going to get
some than done that was cosmetic, because there's some bruising.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
Bruising interesting, well, like.

Speaker 5 (06:07):
Do you really think I'm going to Brazil?

Speaker 1 (06:10):
Yes, and not coming back with a new lifted ass
You're crazy. I mean two days with nothing to do
in a hotel. You know what that speaks to me?
House called ass lift.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
According to this, according to the schedule from the White House.
Again yesterday, they hadn't announced what this announcement was supposed
to be. We now know that it's about Space Force
Command and where the headquarters will be. It's in Colorado
right now they're going to move it to Alabama. I
feel like I've taken the thunder away from the announcement

(06:46):
you have. But there will be reporters in attendance. They
will be able to shout questions. If the president does
what the president does, he'll answer all the questions. If
the president does what previous presidents have done, he'll turn
around and walk out and ignore the questions.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
I'm more interested in this black bag. What was in
that black bag? Like, what, what's the deal? It was
thrown out of a second floor window.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
Okay, here's the best explanation that I saw they're redoing
something in the White House. I think that I saw
it was the Lincoln bathroom, and that it is such
a maze of security to get in and out that
the best way to remove construction debris is to toss

(07:34):
it onto the ground and let somebody else pick it up. Yeah,
that's the Yes, that's the best explanation. The other explanations
are something like, if the President is in the White
House in his residence, no contractors are allowed in that
section of the White House, so no work would have
been done. Therefore, it must have been a doctor throwing

(07:57):
medical equipment out into the wide.

Speaker 5 (08:01):
Then it's like an old school black doctor's bag too.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
Yeah, Like it's like it's going to go into the
bushes around the White House and then just like disappear
that no one's going to ever see it.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
I don't know, I don't know what it was. I
don't think it's a big Still waiting. I'm still waiting.
We'll take you there live when Trump speaks. Just if
nothing else to show proof of life, if you slept
not at all this Labor Day weekend because you were
deep into Twitter slash x on conspiracy theories.

Speaker 5 (08:31):
We want to give you peace of mind?

Speaker 3 (08:32):
Is there a connection to the naked woman naked woman
in Brent what you're saying and the black bag that
was thrown out of the White House?

Speaker 5 (08:39):
And I'll throw this in there space force.

Speaker 3 (08:42):
It's coming together. We're starting to see the light.

Speaker 5 (08:45):
Yeah, you're damn right.

Speaker 6 (08:47):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
I grew up in an ass list house. I was
adopted and uh, nobody in the house had an ass No. Oh,
I see what you're saying. Nobody was blessed and I
always did. And so my nickname as a youth, before
I even knew what it meant was.

Speaker 3 (09:08):
Dumper, was yes, oh, okay, all right.

Speaker 5 (09:16):
So is he talking yet?

Speaker 9 (09:18):
No?

Speaker 6 (09:18):
No, wait talking?

Speaker 5 (09:20):
You know, he's usually not this tarty.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
If he has an announcement at eleven, which he said
to have had, it is twenty one minutes past, that
is kind of rare.

Speaker 5 (09:31):
I don't think that President Trump is usually that tardy.

Speaker 3 (09:34):
There was also a.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
Post last night on X that described the pizza places
around the Pentagon. We're seeing extraordinarily high level of business
last night. I don't know if that means anything, and
it couldn't made up. Wait, where you've never around the
Pentagon the pizza places.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
Yes, yeah, you've never seen this before.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
Well, I'm just now thinking that Hillary Clinton and the
traffic children are involved with this murder plot.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
It's like the uhaffle House index for hurricanes. So you
see the FEMA uses whether or not the waffle house
is open as an indicator of whether.

Speaker 5 (10:07):
Or waffel houses always stays open.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
Very similar. The more.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
The busier that pizza places get, delivery places get around
the Pentagon can indicate.

Speaker 5 (10:19):
A big news story.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
A big news story is about to happen because we
are about to bomb something or break something or interesting again.

Speaker 3 (10:27):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
Maybe it's just lazy parents at the end of a
three day weekend that are getting the kids pizza because
they don't want to make dinner.

Speaker 3 (10:33):
It's also Labor Day. It's hard to Southwest has some
interesting stuff going on.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
Southwest Airlines that is one of these days they're going
to allow or they're going to allow they're going to
require you to buy seats instead of doing the old
cattle call.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
But a change in seating policy has some concern.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
For the last decade, Jen McClellan has been a customer
in Southwest because of the customer of size policy allows
her what she says to ride with dignity. Currently, a
traveler who encroaches upon neighboring seats would be encouraged to
purchase an extra seat in advance of the flight to

(11:12):
make sure that it's available. Upon request, Southwest could refund
the cost of the additional seat after travel. If you're
on a flight Sacramento to Burbank at six thirty in
the morning and it's only half full, They're not you
know that, wouldn't they would be able to return refund
your money. The airline announced though that beginning in January,

(11:32):
that refund is no longer guaranteed it would It would
only be issued if the following conditions are met when
the flight departs, it has at least one open seat,
that the traveler purchased two seats in the same fair class,
and that a refund request is made within ninety days
of the date of travel. As of right now, Alaska

(11:54):
Airlines the only other major US airline that offers a
refund on an extra seat as long as they are
is at least one open seat on the flight at takeoff,
which then raises the question, what if you have four
people who would uh what's the word encroach upon neighboring seats,
but you only had one open seat on that flight.

Speaker 3 (12:16):
Do all four of them get refunds? Would one of
them get the un.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
Well again Jen McClellan As an example, she says that
the customer of size policy helped ease what too often
feels humiliating. That's why the recent changes are are heartbreaking.
I know people that just don't fly. I know one
person that does not fly because of this.

Speaker 1 (12:40):
The seat doesn't fit them. Yeah, and that would be rough.
But uh, you know, uh, I just don't see this
being the problem all the time.

Speaker 3 (12:52):
I mean, and this is not a this is not a.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
I know a lot of people who are not comfortable
in airline seats and they're not who is gigantic people, right?

Speaker 3 (13:02):
I mean, who is?

Speaker 2 (13:02):
They're just not very comfortable at all. Southwest is also
doing something, you.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
Know, the beauty of flying to Brazil and back in
three days, twelve hour flight and then a fourteen hour flight.
Charter flight no, because it's it's my seat is not
like what you would think of as a charter flight.
It's is economy as economy can get. Oh, it's not
business class, it's I'm steerage. I am like, the worst
seat on the plane, but.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
You're behind the helmets.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
But my husband and I we've never paid for a
nicer seat on an international flight. We've never paid for
business class or anything above that because it's so punitively
expensive and we'd rather spend our money on gelato or
wine or whatever once we get there. So I'm like,

(13:50):
this is the only way I've ever flown internationally is
to sit in the worst seat on the plane.

Speaker 5 (13:54):
So that's good, right, then, you don't silver lining.

Speaker 3 (13:57):
You don't know what you're missing.

Speaker 6 (13:59):
I have no clue.

Speaker 3 (14:00):
That's perfect.

Speaker 2 (14:01):
Southwest is also fitting a new security Vite, a security
device on their seven thirty sevens. It's going to be
the first plane with the secondary cockpit barrier.

Speaker 3 (14:14):
Eventually.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
They say they'll have about twenty seven or twenty six
of their airplanes fitted with the device by the end
of the year.

Speaker 5 (14:20):
How often this is a problem.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
It seems like we got to put up k rails
now and between the you've ever seen anyone storm the
cockpit on a flight from Burbank to Albuquerque.

Speaker 3 (14:29):
I've noticed this.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
Specifically on Southwest, more so in the last couple of
months than ever before, where the flight attendant in the
front galley will roll the beverage cart. Yeah, perpendicular to
the aisle, so no one's getting in or out.

Speaker 1 (14:48):
Yeah, I mean when they're doing service and there's no
one there at the cock or in between you.

Speaker 3 (14:53):
No, she's back there hanging out.

Speaker 2 (14:55):
She has Oh interesting, but that it's there, and it
was there almost constantly during the flight.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
I have noticed that. And then maybe it's you. Maybe
they look at you. They profile to go that we
got this guy, he's a problem. I was close enough
to notice.

Speaker 3 (15:09):
So maybe that is.

Speaker 2 (15:11):
If I'm looking around for the schmo who's causing all
the trouble and I don't see him.

Speaker 3 (15:15):
It's probably me.

Speaker 5 (15:17):
Take a look in the mirror, and you're looking at
the problem.

Speaker 3 (15:22):
I'm asking him to change his ways.

Speaker 5 (15:27):
We all laughed at that joke, and it was so dumb,
but I loved it. It was fun.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
It was stupid.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
You're going today, You're going today, I'm.

Speaker 5 (15:38):
Going today, going today, I'm going today.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
Yes, we'll hear from you on Friday right in Brazil
because we start our gas fantasy for play coming up
this week later on Friday, and then next week you're out.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
Yes, next week, I'm out. My mother is having surgery
to take the cancer out. She's taken her Is this
a hippolaw I'm violating. Oh, well, she's having a whole pancreas.
I'm not a doctor having the whole pancreas out next week,
so I'm going up there to be there. She'll be
in the hospital all week long. So yeah, hopefully they

(16:14):
get it all and she's good to go. And they've
got some good jello or ice cream that I can
pill for. Oh, steal, get and steal from the tray.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
Got it?

Speaker 5 (16:28):
But yeah, so yeah, I will be gone next week
for that.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
You will be missed. Bill, Keep in touch.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
I was going to do the show from there, but
you know, you can only be in the hospital for
so many hours during the day, and our shows in
the day, and I thought, well, the whole point of
coming up here is to be with her.

Speaker 3 (16:44):
So and those incessant machines just going beep all the time.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Oh my god, could you imagine doing the show from
the hospital room. What a delight for all those people
who are near death, get a little They want a
little nudge. They want a little nudge into the afterlife.
Listening to this show a little boot in the button.
I have a family reunion coming up next month.

Speaker 5 (17:03):
You just had a family reunion kind of in Hawaii.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
Oh this is different and a different side of the family.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
Oh okay, but my aunt has a planned and I
got the invitation last week in the mail, and we're
going to have hot dogs and beans.

Speaker 5 (17:16):
That sounds amazing. Is it the baked beans with the
little bits of bacon in them?

Speaker 3 (17:20):
I have no idea yet. I'm assuming it is, but
I just probably all kinds of beans.

Speaker 5 (17:25):
Wow, so nice. Wait so everyone brings different beans?

Speaker 3 (17:28):
Again? Not clear, but it's hot talks.

Speaker 5 (17:30):
I need a whole segment about this family reunion.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
There will be you know what. You know what else
is hot right now and bars is hot dogs.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
Yeah, what a time to be alive. You can get
a hot dog in a bar, nice and fresh like that.
You don't have to even you know, leave the bar
and go to the seven eleven.

Speaker 5 (17:48):
What a time.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
I've questions about hot dogs. When we come back, I
have answers. Gary and Shannon will continue.

Speaker 6 (17:56):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI.

Speaker 3 (18:02):
I like that hot diggity dog diggity song. Uh huh boom,
what you do to me?

Speaker 5 (18:07):
I don't think I've ever heard that?

Speaker 3 (18:09):
Is that Oscar Meyer, Perry Como, Harry Como, the legend.

Speaker 5 (18:16):
I think that's a favorite of a grandparent.

Speaker 6 (18:18):
Maybe Harry Como.

Speaker 5 (18:22):
I mean, you know Perry Como.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
He does a lot of Christmas stuff, right, That's why
I felt the Christmas feelings in my heart listening to that.

Speaker 3 (18:28):
Yes, that is he does a lot of Christmas stuff.

Speaker 5 (18:31):
He died, you guys, he's a shocker. He did think that.

Speaker 3 (18:38):
Hey, mind you that. This is Saturday.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
Sorry, This Saturday, American Vision Windows is doing a huge
party at their Seemi Valley showroom. It's gonna be from
eleven to three. The food, the fun, and the prize.

Speaker 5 (18:57):
Super bummed. I'm gonna miss it.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
Dean Sharp is to be there. Tim Conway Junior is
going to be there. I'm gonna be there. Shannon's going
to be on an airplane. But we're gonna go out
there and have fun with our friends at American Vision Windows.

Speaker 3 (19:09):
Again.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
It's at the Semi Valley Showroom coming up Saturday from
eleven until three. So food at a bar, can be
can be what's the word questionable dicey? Yeah, an adventure.

Speaker 1 (19:27):
You're really rolling the dice most of the time, but
you don't care because I mean, sometimes you go into
a bar, even if you're maybe a little bit hungry,
you start drinking. You forget that you're hungry. Yeah, it's
usually the end of the night where you want the
food from the bar, or like, oh, man, I gotta
go home. Oh I'm hungry, I want some food.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Or if you are still hungry, all of your inhibitions
are gone. So whatever concern you had about the letter
grade from the health department out on the front window
goes by the wayside after a few pops. So you're
fine with semi frozen chicken nuggets or whatever it is.

Speaker 1 (20:03):
That well, anyway, listen, who's going to the bar. People
in their twenties. You don't really care about the chain
of custody of food when you're in your twenties. True,
you've got guts of steel. There are other things to
worry about.

Speaker 5 (20:14):
It.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
It's when you become like us old and you know
one bad meal will send you to the urgent care.

Speaker 3 (20:21):
I don't remember being gluten intolerance exactly the.

Speaker 9 (20:26):
This has.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
There's an article in the Washington Post about how hot
dogs have shown up as the must have culinary adventure
in bars, not just dive bars, but just bars in general.

Speaker 3 (20:41):
Hot dogs are now on the menu.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
It's brilliant because, like we talked about, nobody really cares
about what they're eating. They just know that they're hungry.
That's why you know there's so many trips after the
bars to Taco Bell. What's the last time you had
Taco Bell? Totally sober? Yeah, it's just it's one of
those things you just don't care about it. You just
want something in your stomach, right, So this way you

(21:04):
have to You can take out the time it takes
in the uber or what have you been starving waiting
to get home to the cup of noodles?

Speaker 3 (21:10):
You can just have that bar hot dog. I that
is funny that you mentioned tacobout.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
I drive by two of them on the way to
work every morning, and I think to myself, is it
too early for someone to be drunk and eating Taco Bell?
Or are they still they still going from the night
before and they're waiting for that pre Taco Bell is
like dodgeball it's a young person's game.

Speaker 5 (21:38):
You age out of it.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
Like my stomach cannot take taco bell anymore. I was
just having this conversation with a girlfriend. She said she
had taco bell and she threw up, and I said,
that's because you can't. Your body can't take taco bell anymore.

Speaker 5 (21:50):
It just can't.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
It's also not this was a shock to her. It's
probably not the same ingredients that was twenty years ago.
Thirty right, Dare I say forty years ago?

Speaker 3 (22:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (22:03):
For example, one of the places that they profile here,
one of the hot dogs they profiles from a place
called Bread Soda Glover Park. Five dollars gets you a
cold can of paps. For four dollars more, it comes
with a shot of a rail spirit of your choice
and for a total of ten to fifty listen to
this deal. Ten to fifty you get a PBR, You

(22:24):
get a grilled hot dog with meaty or vegan chili,
and a bag of Miss Vicki's Potato chips.

Speaker 1 (22:32):
I like Miss Vicki's Comet Ping Pong got to be
in the mood farm, though they can be a lot.

Speaker 2 (22:38):
The Comet Ping Pong store has a comet hot dog
Haut hot dog part of the launch for their house IPA.
It's an organic all beef hot dog from a local
sausage prevail called Stashowski's.

Speaker 5 (22:53):
Local Sausage purveyor what a nice ring to it.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
That has spicy, peppery kick. I found a new meat
place in paser Robles. The dog is baked in the
Chevy Chase Pizzeria's wood fired ovens, providing crackling and blistering
texture as well as sweet sweet smokiness. Opt for the
sharp sour kraut and fresh halapanios to turn up the favor.
That is a hot dog for ten to buck ten

(23:17):
bucks base model, and then eleven to fifteen when you
get all the aftermarket add ons. Ten How much would
you pay for a good hot dog at a bar? Yeah,
I mean a local sausage type or just That's what
I'm saying is you're getting into some gourmet stuff there,
You're not.

Speaker 5 (23:35):
I'll pay seven dollars.

Speaker 3 (23:37):
None of these are seven dollars?

Speaker 5 (23:39):
How much are they?

Speaker 3 (23:39):
These are all ten bucks?

Speaker 5 (23:40):
That's ridiculous. That's robbery. Hot dog should be two three dollars.

Speaker 1 (23:45):
I'm giving them the bump with the seven the bump
of you know, just not of overhead and things.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
And the hot dogs that you want when you're at
a bar. I mean that goes back to the whole
discussion we had at the beginning. Would just be Oscar
Meyer delicious. Man, they don't even have to be grilled.

Speaker 7 (24:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (24:01):
The places that I've eaten hot dogs outside of bars,
they're usually just boiled.

Speaker 3 (24:06):
Yeah, boiled hot dog on a bun. You put the
toppings on it. You make the decision.

Speaker 5 (24:11):
Boiled hot dogs reminds me of my grandparents.

Speaker 3 (24:14):
It's a good dollar spend I made.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
We made some sausages last night in the toaster oven.
Had had the grill fire that Ritchie Rich. Oh, yeah,
there's this new invention. It's called the toaster. It's like
a toaster, but a small oven. Is it the Sittin
and Suns Meat place?

Speaker 2 (24:36):
No, what's it called. I'd have to find the I'd
have to look on the map real quick. I know
the location of it. It's a meat and sausage place.

Speaker 3 (24:44):
We went to the We went to the restaurant in
Passer Robels proper.

Speaker 2 (24:49):
Yes, in the city limits. It's in the Low's parking
lot or it's in It shares a parking.

Speaker 3 (24:53):
Lot with the load.

Speaker 5 (24:54):
Is that okay?

Speaker 3 (24:56):
Primal House, Golden Hill Road? Is it Primal?

Speaker 10 (24:59):
Ho?

Speaker 1 (25:00):
You don't remember the name of the meat place? Would
you even know if I said it? You can't say
I've got a great meat place and then you don't
know the name of it.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
What kind of meat are you buying?

Speaker 1 (25:12):
Like local meats, you know, sausage, jerky, all sorts of meat.
You've never been to a good meat place?

Speaker 3 (25:19):
I mean, I know, like, I know people do that,
but like, what are the benefits versus going to like
you know, arouse, like.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
A variety of different meats, A variety of different types
of sausage, different animal sauce fresh, yes, fresh. You can
taste the different meats, bacon like different types of bacon cuts, different.

Speaker 5 (25:43):
It's basically for variety of meats and they're usually local
and delicious. Price range is it worth like sometimes yes,
sometimes no? It just depends.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
Like the last time I was going through the Central Valley,
we had a cooler in the in the back the car,
so I was able to load up on meats and
put them in there.

Speaker 5 (26:03):
I sound real weird right now, Yeah you do? Yeah, okay,
I'll take a break.

Speaker 1 (26:09):
Oh, what is this Gary's self checkout experience? I see
on the show Rundown?

Speaker 5 (26:14):
Did you have? Did you were you? Were you a
problem this weekend?

Speaker 2 (26:17):
Well, my wife yelled at me for one thing oof,
but I didn't use the self checkout, but it became
an issue.

Speaker 5 (26:24):
I can't wait.

Speaker 3 (26:25):
Gary and Shannon will continue.

Speaker 6 (26:27):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
President Trump is standing in front of a bunch of
leaders in the White House right now and basically announced
that Space Force Command headquarters will be in Huntsville, Alabama,
that he then declared would now forever be known as
Rocket City, the Rocket City, trash pandace Bly the Way,
the Double a affiliate of your Anaheim Angels of Los

(26:57):
Angeles Angels Anaheim. They play in a nearby windsor. I
think it is Madison, Matt, you're Madison.

Speaker 6 (27:05):
Your hair.

Speaker 5 (27:06):
Don't touch it, don't touch it.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
Whatever you do. Don't touch the microphone button either, because
that would be bad. You have to look at this picture.
I don't have to hair. It's doing right now, right now,
right now, it looks like I'm standing in front of
a fame.

Speaker 5 (27:22):
I have a pumpadour. You heard Perry Como and your
hair is like.

Speaker 3 (27:27):
Look at this.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
So the move takes the Space Command headquarters to Huntsville, Alabama,
from Colorado. In all, they said, bring about thirty thousand
jobs to Alabama.

Speaker 3 (27:40):
Let's listening to what the presence right.

Speaker 6 (27:42):
Sure, that's what I want, and they got their way.
So I just want to congratulate. These are really special people.

Speaker 4 (27:49):
Look, they're politicians in many ways, but they're great patriots,
I think even more so than politicians.

Speaker 6 (27:54):
Show they fought very hard to get it and to
give it to Huntsville. Say a few words.

Speaker 4 (28:00):
Please thank you, mister President.

Speaker 6 (28:05):
As usual, right place, right.

Speaker 4 (28:08):
Time, for the right reason. In your first administration, you
established the Space Force at a time when we knew
we had to be looking to that domain of space.
You also re established spacecom to ensure that priority was
put in place, and you, through the Air Force, independently
identified that Huntsville, Alabama was right place to put it.

Speaker 3 (28:26):
For other reasons.

Speaker 4 (28:27):
In the next administration under Biden, they decided to move
it somewhere else.

Speaker 3 (28:30):
Well.

Speaker 4 (28:31):
During that time, the DoD Inspector General, the Government Affairs Office,
they did their own assessments and where did they say,
Space comptge go Huntsville, Alabama.

Speaker 8 (28:40):
So what you're doing.

Speaker 4 (28:41):
Today, mister President, is restoring it to precisely where it
should be based on what the Space Force, the Air Force,
your leadership believes will give us strategic advantage in the future.
That is Huntsville, Alabama. We are way ahead in space,
but this will ensure we stay leaps and bounds ahead
because that's the most important domain.

Speaker 3 (29:00):
Whoever controls the skies.

Speaker 4 (29:02):
Will control the future of warfare, and mister President, today
you're ensuring that happens.

Speaker 3 (29:05):
Thank you, Thank you. Katie would like to say something Katie.

Speaker 10 (29:11):
Mister President, we are grateful for your leadership on this
and restoring Space Command to its rightful homego. This delegation
has worked together both follows pies to make sure that
Huntsville was the place that Space Command called the home.
As was mentioned obviously, the chows to make this political.

(29:32):
What we want to do is put the safety and
security of Americans first. We want to make sure that
our war fighter is put first, and we want to
make sure that America continues to lead.

Speaker 5 (29:42):
And today, mister President, you've allowed that to happen.

Speaker 3 (29:45):
Thank you, Thank you, very much.

Speaker 5 (29:46):
Is she the one who did the response in the kitchen.

Speaker 7 (29:49):
Thank you, miss President. This is a great day for
a country. And I just first State of Alabama.

Speaker 3 (29:53):
Tommy Tellerville. We need football coach, yeah, former.

Speaker 7 (29:58):
In our military. We need to catch up. And its
Secretory has said we're not behind in space, but we
know where we're at and we need to expound on that.

Speaker 5 (30:11):
It's not a great speech. Cost this move behind to.

Speaker 7 (30:14):
Shave the tax eighty million dollars. It's not gonna cost more.
It's gonna cut four hundred and eighty million dollars. We
have the plans in tact. It'll be behind a secure
wall in hunstfle, Alabama, rest on Arsenal. We have forty
thousand people there. We have the FBI there, we have
missile defense there, we have NASA Blue Origin and SpaceX.

(30:37):
It is the perfect place for Space Command. I would
tell you today and again I've spoke with the President
for the last three or four years about this. If
I thought it needed to go somewhere else, because I
understand the security of our country, i'd before that. But
the best place for Space Command is Hunstful, Alabama, because
what we have and what it means to this country

(30:58):
is going to be so important. So thank you, miss
President for this, and we look forward to building a
huge Space Command and having the Donald Jay Trump Space
Command Center in Huntsville, Alabama. Yah.

Speaker 3 (31:15):
Sure, well, mister President, thank you all.

Speaker 8 (31:17):
Be very brief here. I lobbied the President hard to
put it in Ohio, but he said, these people behind us,
these Alabamas, are just too powerful and too persuasive, and
so it's in Alabama. But as Tommy said, this is
exactly the right place for Space Force and Space Command.
I think Americans ought to appreciate and ought to appreciate
the fact that you can't win the battle of the
future unless you control the skies, the cyber security, the communications,

(31:41):
the entire infrastructure of the battle in the twenty first
century will be in space. So it was a visionary
move in the first administration for the President to set
up Space Force, and I think an equally visionary move
to make sure that Space Force is right where it
should be in Huntsville, Alabama.

Speaker 3 (31:54):
Thank you, sir, Thank you, gentlemen.

Speaker 8 (31:57):
Anybody want to say anything, would you.

Speaker 9 (31:58):
Like to say, President, another promise made, another promise? Kept
you think about it? Redstone Arsenal is critical to national security.
The President said when you were the forty fifth president,
let's do what's right for national security. And today that's
exactly what we're doing. It's not because of this or that,
it's because it's right for national security. You think of

(32:20):
the twenty one categories there were evaluated to determine what
was best for national security, all indicators pointed back to Huntsville,
Alabama and Redstone Arsenal. We have the right people at
the right place, at the right time, mister President, on
behalf of the people of the fifth Congressional District and
all of Alabama, thank you for keeping your word.

Speaker 2 (32:39):
Absolutely, anybody, anybody, any Dale Strong, one of the members
of Congress there and again this is this announcement is
just that he's moving the Space Command headquarters from Colorado
down to Huntsville, Alabama. And as you heard Tommy Tuberville
there the Senator, as senior Senator say, there's a lot
of infrastructure already there. So this makes perfect sense in

(33:03):
terms of the logistical of qualifications. I guess for the
different cities that could have hosted the Space Command and
it will be there in Huntsville.

Speaker 3 (33:13):
It will be called Rocket City. According to President Trump.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
There will be questions, and if if they here get
into any of those questions, we're rolling on it.

Speaker 3 (33:22):
We'll make sure we bring him to you. By the way,
he doesn't look dead.

Speaker 5 (33:25):
No, he's very much alive. In Tan. Good Tan. That's
a good Tan. That's good Tam.

Speaker 1 (33:31):
All right, we've got to I don't know how it happened,
but the mass of twelve o'clock hours, just like that,
just pow, just that happened.

Speaker 3 (33:37):
I don't know, my god, I don't have questions. You've
been listening to the Gary and Shannon Show.

Speaker 2 (33:43):
