Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Merril KFI AM six forty on demand anytime the I
heartready what Brigitta, Hey, hey, welcome to the circus. Do
you have any secret headache remedies?
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Oh my gosh, I need one too. I've had a.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Day haven't Because Eileen, who was just sitting in your
chair there, she evidently is a doctor.
Speaker 4 (00:26):
She was diagnosing my headaches.
Speaker 5 (00:29):
What would she give you?
Speaker 4 (00:31):
She gave me migraines.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Oh that's what she said. I go, no, I think
it's sinus that she goes, No, it's migraines. Oh okay,
Well if she says yeah, I said. The problem is
is that everybody who's got a headache now claims they
have a migraine. And so now having a migraine just
means having a headache. And I don't like that because
what about people that really get migraines.
Speaker 5 (00:51):
I need to fill it.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
It's definitely not the same.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
It's not the same, right, Like, I feel like I'm
not gonna call it a migraine unless I can't open
my eye. It's like, if light hurts, that's a migraine.
If any sound hurts, that's a migraine to me, and
unless I'm feeling that, I'm gonna I'm going to defer
to people who actually have migraines. So that's the way
I feel, all right. So if you come up with
a good remedy, let me know. That was our talkback
(01:15):
question tonight. You're your super secret headache remedies, Chris.
Speaker 6 (01:19):
You know a few women that swear by an orgasm
fixes a headache instantly.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
That's the word betther, look it up.
Speaker 5 (01:26):
I read that online too. I think it's true.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Okay, but all right, we're looking for actual solutions, not
mythical events.
Speaker 7 (01:35):
No, he's saying that he can't. He's never had a
woman do that for him, so he doesn't believe it.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
It's not happened. Playing the show to Sam in the
other room.
Speaker 5 (01:45):

Speaker 4 (01:46):

Sam's supposed to be supervising through the door.
Speaker 4 (02:07):

just really stellar job.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Guys.
Speaker 7 (02:15):
Sam says that he will give you some advice to
become a better and actually accomplish this in the real world,
as he is a sex doctor. I'm just relaying the
message from Sam. You can book him if you want
to learn some things.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I don't need any help. I'm very good at it.
I don't have any complaints.
Speaker 8 (02:33):
I had a headache till about an hour and a
half ago. Yeah, and I started listening to Chris Merrill
and kfine.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
Well, okay, where do you think he's going with this?
Speaker 7 (02:43):
What do you think that his headache got worse because
your voice is grading.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Yeah, either it got worse or he started bashing his
head into the.
Speaker 8 (02:51):
Wall or you know, all right, my headache went away
because Chris Marril is a headache relief guy.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
Right, your dad or your brother or something? Did you
pay it?
Speaker 4 (03:05):
Every week?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
We do it right after our six o'clock news, Brigina.
There's no business like Brigita. We do it right after
Brigita's news at six o'clock.
Speaker 5 (03:15):
Set it up again. I'm sorry, I messed up. I
love you, guys. I my name yell it again.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
I got one hour to go here, all right, just
need we The first two were going, okay, all right,
every week right after Brigita six o'clock news, we bring
you there's no business.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
Like show business.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
You are this close to getting Kimmeled.
Speaker 5 (03:36):
I am sorry, so close to get all right, so sorry.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Kimmel came back. I believe did that news break Monday.
It was a Sunday night right after our show whatever
it was, after we got done last week that ABC
said okay, well, Kimmel's coming back on, and then he did.
But as well, you know, uh, Next Star and Sinclair
groups to say added not to air the Kimmel Show
(04:02):
on any of their ABC affiliates. Now they own affiliates
to every single network, just in different markets. So here
Next Star is kt LA, but that's cub It's not ABC.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
ABC is I don't know who are they? Here? Are
they Gray? Or do you know? Off the top of
your head, you don't pay attention to this.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
ABC is?
Speaker 4 (04:25):
What? Who's ABC's parent company, ABC Seven's parent company.
Speaker 5 (04:30):
I'm googling.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
I'm gonna have it before you do. I'm gonna go
to their website and I'm gonna go right to the bottom. Uh,
company TV Listenings, Meet the team. I lost it.
Speaker 7 (04:42):
I can yeah, I don't think my answer is right.
It's a b ABC, but I've never heard of that.
I don't like that answer.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
All right, well we'll figure it out before before the
end of the show. Anyway, where was I?
Speaker 9 (04:56):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Yes, next star An Sinclair said, well, we're not gonna
bring Kimmel back, and sink player said kim Will has
to apologize and make a donation to Turning Point USA. Well,
all right, well that is basically compelled speech on their part.
But they can do whatever they want, right, That's a business.
A business can do whatever they want. Not ABC, Kayla,
ABC seven?
Speaker 5 (05:17):
All right, calm down.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
ABC's like it's Disney. I know that, goober, not the network.
I want to know who owns the local station. Is
it Gannet or Gray Media or I don't know who
owns it? All right, Tegna. It's not Tegna. I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Anyway, where was I? Oh? Yeah, they said you have
to make a donation. He said no.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
So then all of a sudden, the question is how
long is ABC going to allow for twenty percent of
their stations not to air their nightly programming because Remember,
Disney has made guarantees to advertisers, which is why it's
in the contract that you have to air our programming
X amount of our programming. Of course, could be bumped
if you've got you know, severe weather going on, or
(06:02):
you've got the local sports.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Or whatever else that you might be carrying.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
There are exceptions when when local stations can not carry
the network feed, but.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
They are who is it?
Speaker 5 (06:15):
It's owned by the Walt Disney car.
Speaker 7 (06:18):
Networks, and it's affiliated stations including ABC seven.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
All Right, all right, I did not know that. I
didn't know.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
I didn't know Disney had any local feelings. Okay, well
that's cool, all right, there you go. You will admit though,
that the first thing you sent me was ABC is
owned by I will I will admit that, yes, sir.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
All right, so now we're on the same page. Where
was I?
Speaker 9 (06:41):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (06:41):
I know, so Disney is trying to think monetarily. Okay,
we suspended Kimmel. There's questions about why they suspended him.
Is it because of pressure from the FCC chair Brendan
carr Uh And many people have said no, no, no,
they did it because it was a business decision, because
he has terrible ratings because he's losing money hand over fist, YadA, YadA, YadA.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
But now Brendan.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Carr has appeared on conservative radio talk shows and on
Fox News to defend his threats, saying, you know, we're
going to do this the easy way or the hard
way over things. And he says that the SEC is
going to continue with their congressional mandate to ensure broadcast
TV serves the public interest, saying if people don't like it,
they can go to Congress and change the law. In
(07:26):
other words, he's going to say that the speech by
Kimmel doesn't serve in the public interest.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
Right.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
The concern, however, is not about my side versus your side,
but is the public interest best served by diversity of opinions?
And you may say, well, yeah, but ABC doesn't have
a diversity of opinions all right, but then by you
targeting one individual. See, these are the questions that I
think a lot of people are gonna have, specifically the shareholders.
(07:58):
So Disney is facing something a little tricky right now.
A group of Disney shareholders are exercising their right to
demand materials related to the company's decision about suspending Jimmy Kimmel.
The American Federation of Teachers and Reporters Without Borders said
there is credible basis to suspect that the board breached
its fiduciary duty to investors by prioritizing improper political and
(08:20):
affiliate considerations.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Disney was stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
They've got their affiliates that are trying to do this
massive merger that needs FCC approval. You got the FCC
saying you got to get Jimmy Kimmel off the air,
and we're gonna go after him, and we're gonna do
it the easy way, or we're gonna do it the
hard way. So immediately, of course, the affiliates call the
network Disney and they go, hey, we'd like to do
this the easy way.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Just take them off the air.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
So Disney suspends him, and they go, good, because you know,
we've got this massive merger coming up here. We would
hate to drop some of your some of your networks
from our affiliates. We'd hate to have drop some of
our affiliates from your network, right, And so Disney goes, okay,
what'll do that. So we'll suspend them and then indefinitely
and we'll figure it out. So they do, but then
there's a big question about did they act in the
(09:08):
best interest of their shareholders, Because if they're making moves
that are not in the best distance of their shareholders,
their fiduciary responsibility is not to provide programming. Their fiduciary
responsibility is to provide a return on investment. Forget the
free speech argument. What is really going to bring in
an accountability is going to be the money argument. The sec
(09:32):
is more important to the rich and powerful than the
constitution because they're not the government, and every decision that
the government makes is all about how much power they
want to seed. See, our whole country was founded on
this notion that we the people hold all of the
power and that we grant certain things to the government.
(09:55):
That's the whole idea, is that we're a bottom up society.
But that is shifted and government officials don't do time
when they violate your rights in their own official capacity.
They don't have to pay their own legal bills for
violating your rights. In fact, your tax dollars pay their
lawyers to defend violating your rights, and they have no
(10:16):
reason not to test the boundaries you However, could be
locked up for exercising your rights, and then you have
to find a way to fight back, which is expensive,
and maybe you can recoup your legal fees, maybe you can't.
You have more reason to comply with unconstitutional orders than
the government has to respect the constitution.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
That's the truth.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
But also it's a two way street, which is why
Kimmel is back on the Next Next Star and Sinclair Stations.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Will the will the drama go away?
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Hard to say because as soon as Kimmel came back,
President Trump said, we're gonna We're gonna test ABC out
on this. Let's see how we do. Last time I
went after them, they gave me sixteen million dollars. So
what does that mean? Is is the old thing like
take Kimmel off or else? I guess this is the
(11:15):
world we're in now. How about entertainment news that doesn't
have to do with politics? Yes, please, that's next more.
There's no business like.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Shel you're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
We asked the question, with tilan Al being in the news,
what is your super secret headache remedy?
Speaker 6 (11:35):
Honestly, whenever I get a headache, I just complained about it.
I complain about it so much that I eventually call
my moms and she tells me to stop complaining and
rub some vapor rub on my neck, so that usually
takes care of it.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Vapo rub. I've never have you, guys, ever used Vapo
rub for headaches? I've never done that. Do you love
the smell of Vapo rub. I've done like asper cream
or ben gay or something like that, but I've never
done a vapel rub. All right, put that on the
maybe list. All right, very good. If you're on the app,
feel free to hit that talk back button. Let us
(12:11):
know what it is that you do. What is your
super secret headache remedy. In the meantime, there's no business.
Speaker 5 (12:17):
Like shel business.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Good news, bad news.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
William Shatner is fine after a reported medical emergency. We
know because of this elongated report from ABC seven.
Speaker 10 (12:28):
Now I look at some of our top stories trending online.
William Shatner's agency is denying reports the Hollywood star was
hospitalized after a medical emergency. A statement from the agency
says the actor is fine.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
All right, good story, very good. Okay.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Evidently, according to his agent, to get an issue with
blood sugar while he was at home, Shatner sought out
medical attention. Paramedics showed up. They, accorded to TMZ, took
him to the hospital, and according to ABC.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
NO, they didn't.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Okay, so not huh well, maybe they took him to
the hospital but not hospitalized. Okay, all right, splitting here
speaking which how about much younger celebrity who is feeling
some pain talking about headaches? How would you help Tom Holland?
Speaker 11 (13:13):
Production stopped on Friday after Tom Holland suffered a mild
concussion during a stunt. Producers say he's taking a short
break from out of precaution, but is expected back on
the set in a few days. Holland even made a
charity appearance with fiance Zendeya over the weekend, easing fans' concerns.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Okay, good, I think my mother would say, rob some
Pepperman oil on your temple.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
Thanks mom.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
I think Spider Man's going to be okay, though without
your Pepperman oil probably not, Probably not gonna help him
a lot. Are we gonna I haven't heard anything yet,
and I admittedly don't read my union news as closely
as I should, But are we gonna have a point
where we talk about stunt actors having trouble with CTE
(13:59):
like football, Right, all of a sudden we find out
had injuries of these lifetime consequence. We're gonna find out
that we had stunt actors going through the same thing.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
Uh, throwing it out? Is it possible it could happen?
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Maybe the stunt actors are gonnaed to wear a bigger helmet,
a comically huge helmet like Rick moranis wore in space Balls,
and it sounds like he might be wearing in space
Balls too. Rick moranis, of course retired forever ago, but
he has been lured out of retirement. According to a
(14:36):
studio released photo of the cast and a table read,
Rick moranis is back for space Balls too. May the
Schwartz be with him. He played Dark Helmet in the
eighty seven space Balls movie. He hasn't been in a
live action film since Honey, we Shrunk Ourselves back in
nineteen ninety seven. I didn't realize Rick Moranas has been
out for almost thirty years.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
Did you know that?
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Good Lord Cayle, do you even remember this guy? You're
young enough you probably don't even remember. Rick moranis good talk.
Uh yeah, No, I don't know. Maybe you saw honey
I shrunk the kids or something when you were young.
But I'm glad to see him back. I'm a big
Rick Moranas fan.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
I loved him. I'm so glad he's coming back.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Ollie getting in on the convo. Good talk to him,
a man, Yeah, it gets the end. Thanks for potting up.
I appreciate that. And then shunning Sam because Sam just
distracts us with a bunch of his medical knowledge, which
just drives me nuts.
Speaker 4 (15:30):
Sounds just working everywhere right now. He's the worst.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
He's terrible with all of his intelligence and bringing content
to the show, the kind of crap that people know
when they come to this show, they're not gonna get
any of that, so I don't like him trying to
ruin it all. Anyway, glad Rick moranis is back, Glad
Ali is jumping in on the program too. Hopefully we
get to hear Ali for a while longer. There is
a new law being proposed in California to quiet commercials down.
(15:57):
That will go nowhere, but Senate Bill five and six
would lower the volume on commercial advertisements. It did pass
the legislature, now winning the governor's signature. Will it happen?
I mean, I'm down for it, I just don't know
what it does. Slight transition away from the away from
a show business and into how much you're paying for
(16:18):
your streaming not just to not just your streaming shows,
but how much you're paying for all your subscriptions has
gotten to the point where America is breaking. That is
next just a few moments, because I I might be well,
they used to call him a zaddy, but now I
might be the apple of a gen Z's eye. And
(16:44):
I'm definitely old enough to be here daddy, but there
might be a reason that my wife is gonna have
to keep those kids away. By kids, I mean, like,
you know, twenty five year olds, not Epstein weirdos. So okay,
this tease has gone downhill real fast, show business.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
Good job, Kayla.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
We'll get to the bottom of why I might be
the most attractive thing on the market.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Next, you're listening to KFI A six on demand.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
Thank you to everybody that has weighed in on the
talkbacks tonight. You guys are a blast. Really, you're a blast.
I appreciate all of you, even if you think that
I'm misreading the room.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
It's just great content, and honest to God, that's just
what we do. We just create content.
Speaker 8 (17:28):
Take two shots and listen to Chris Maryland and you'll
be fine by morning.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Okayla, there's your advice, best medical advice so far.
Speaker 7 (17:36):
Shots of what like shots of a gun? Shots of
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Normally people listen to Chris Maryland and they take two
shots of a thirty eight snubnose.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
Right. I was thinking they kind of double taped themselves,
don't they. Yeah, I get that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Joining us right now is doctor Wendy Walsh, who I'm
sure will say that myself deprecating humor goes back to
my parents not loving me enough.
Speaker 4 (17:57):
Is that right, doctor Wendy.
Speaker 9 (17:59):
Of course it goes back to a tragic childhood, Chris.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
About very tragic childhood.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
But what I realized is that everything that's wrong with
me is actually making me very attractive to the youngest suitors.
Speaker 9 (18:13):
Now, I think, gen Z, tell me one thing about
you that you say is wrong about you that's attractive
to gen Z.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
I am an ogre.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Oh, Shrek's back in, Yeah, Shrek in.
Speaker 4 (18:27):
Yeah, Shrek is back in. That's right.
Speaker 9 (18:30):
It's called shreking, Yes, yes, I think yeah with shrek ever, well,
when you were little, right kaylea.
Speaker 7 (18:38):
Like four, But I mean like in an attractive way,
Like when was that ever a thing? Except for right
now in twenty twenty five, Shreking is in now.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
Yes, Shreking means marrying below your bar.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Yes, because then the other person will be extra loyal
to you.
Speaker 9 (18:59):
Say a man's love of woman, do just a little
bit more than she loves him.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
I love that we're calling it shrekking. But there was
a song in the sixties.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
If you want to be happy for the rest of
your life, never make a pretty woman your wife. Take
it from my personal point of view, get an ugly
girl to marry you. The whole premise of the song
was that she would just dote.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
All over you.
Speaker 9 (19:22):
Does she feels so lucky to have you? Well, you know,
better have some money for her. I don't care what
she looks like.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
Oh you think that's it? Yeah, yeah, she still needs
to build. See.
Speaker 9 (19:32):
The thing is women are valuable. It doesn't matter how
men choose to categorize women. Give them numbers of one
to ten, rate them on their external self. Their internal
self is the value. It's the gold. It's the pearl
in the oyster. It's the four hundred eggs that are
sitting there waiting to take applications.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
Okay, so you're saying I stand a.
Speaker 5 (19:55):
Chance because she said you have to have money. She
started with that.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Yeah, as long as I keep my job, I'll be
all right.
Speaker 4 (20:03):
You know, there it is.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
That's a song.
Speaker 7 (20:16):
He also works in radio, So I don't know how
far his money is going to go.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
You're saying this monopoly money won't spend exactly. Tell me.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
It's my brother in laws tactic. He used to go
to the bar and he would he says, he goes, Oh,
I see them pretty girls, and my friends will waste
your time on them. I go find their ugly friend.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
She'll go home with you.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Oh he's he's not a great role model, but he's
a heck of a lot of fun at parties.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Yeah, no, we don't like him.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
It's good stories. What do you have going on tonight? Doctor?
Speaker 9 (20:54):
I want to continue the conversation about AI and if
you're one of those people who has feelings of life
towards your chatbot, you're normal and I'll explain why class.
You know, people accuse me of talking about sex a
lot on my show. I really don't, don't, Kayla, I
don't write you don't. I only talk about sex if
it's in context of a relationship. So three myths about
(21:19):
sex that can ruin your marriage. It's about the relationship.
You believe these things, it can ruin your relationship. And
I also want to talk about psychology's gold standard personality
test that can literally predict well everything from your career
success to your success at love. And I'll tell people
where they can take the test online today and then
(21:41):
decide if they're compatible or not.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
With anybody Loaded for bear than I'm ready to roll
you really are?
Speaker 4 (21:47):
I kind of love this about it.
Speaker 9 (21:48):
And I have a guest later in the show who's
a doctor who's a specialist in perry menopause, which can
happen up to ten years.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Oh my gosh before are real menopause.
Speaker 4 (21:58):
I don't know anything about paramenopause.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Start in mid thirties.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
I don't know if I'm allowed to say it, but
my poor wife, and honestly, god, this is one area
where dudes, you need to learn more about the whole
paramenopause menopause thing because you don't have a clue until
all of a sudden you're trying to hold somebody and
you don't know what to do about it.
Speaker 9 (22:17):
Yeah, well it's hard. Just give him, give him love. Yeah,
bubble bath, I was looking for it this week. I
was shopping because I'm compulsive shopper on Amazon, and I
think Jeff Bezos is rich just because of me.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
But basically, I.
Speaker 9 (22:31):
Was looking for one of those things that you put
across your bathtub that you might want to put, like
your bass salts in or a bar soap or something.
In every single ad on Amazon, it showed a woman
with an iPad propped up a glass of wine her
cell phone. Is like she's gonna spend and she looks
so happy and like she's gonna spend all day in
(22:52):
the bathtub watching movies and drinking wine. But if you
have perimenopause or menopause, you might need that, you might.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
Yeah, And if you're Jeff Bezos, you want her reading your.
