Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Take it in me, Chris Maryland, I AM six forty
more stimulating talk guy to man anytime the iHeart Radio App.
I asked the question, if you're listening on the iHeart
Radio app, but just hit that talkback button? Will Gavin
Newsom be recalled this time around? People have been trying
to recall him since he was first elected in his
first term. One recall effort did make it to the ballot,
(00:25):
and he won by what would be a landslide, sixty
to forty, almost roughly the same percentage that he won
the election with originally on the same percentage that he
won re election with. That's how much he beat the
impeachment And now, excuse me, recall, not impeachment. Recall Now?
Will he be recalled this time around? Your thoughts on
(00:47):
the talkback.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Get to this? Why is my stuff not playing here? Ready?
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Go?
Speaker 5 (00:56):
Nobody gets voted out in California?
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Okay, my stuff is freezing? What's going on here? Keiley?
Speaker 5 (01:02):
Nobody's voted on California because the voting process, the voting system,
all the voting rooms they use, is so corrupt and bad.
That's why nobody ever gets voted out? Pete for Marrige County. Bye,
all right, thanks Pete. Appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Actually, I think, isn't California one of only a handful
of states that has ever recalled a governor?
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Great Davis, Yeah, all right, other thoughts. Always happy to
get your talkbacks. Hey, Chris, great job again tonight. Thank you.
Speaker 6 (01:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Hey, the price of eggs? That's really interesting.
Speaker 6 (01:38):
Okay, why can't you talk more about how the guy
you voted for, Cayla?
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Who'd I vote for?
Speaker 7 (01:46):

much on the show.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Very good, right answer, Cayla, Well done, Thank you. Sucks.
Speaker 6 (01:52):
Vladimir Putin's oh, oh we have a Russian agent in
the White House. That's way important, way more of the
crap you're talking about. Wow, we got a Russian agent
in our White House? Trees it is Trump sucks.
Speaker 8 (02:08):
Putin's Oh he's fun.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
You think he goes to the grocery store and people
are like, man, can you believe the price of eggs?

Like things, Heather are encouraging this ulta purchase.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
You know.
Speaker 10 (03:34):
I'm just busy, just mostly taking care of my mom.
My mom is elderly and needs a lot of help
and care, and taking care of my kid and just honestly.
Speaker 9 (03:45):
Enjoying a little break. Okay, happy to be back.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Though happy to be I was way more boring than
I was hoping.
Speaker 10 (03:52):
Sorry, excited to say, but I am happy to be back.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
I missed you, guys, I missed you. There's no doubt
I missed you. I I lied awake and I cried.
Speaker 11 (04:01):
I know.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Yeah. Oscars going on tonight.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
One person you're not going to see there is one
of the greats of a generation.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Harrison Ford. Not at the Oscars. Harrison, Oh, hold on,
bring that volume back up. I was playing that music.
Speaker 4 (04:14):
Sin Ford will not present that the oscar is due
to an illness, His populosist confirms. The eighty two year
old actor was diagnosed with shingles on Friday.
Speaker 9 (04:23):
Oh the worst, but also how gross. Why would you
tell people that like publicly?
Speaker 2 (04:29):
I mean, God, maybe he's gonna start like the Shingles Foundation.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
And canceled his plan appearance Go ahead tonight. The Indiana
Jones and Star Wars star was seen last week at
the Screen Actor's Guild Awards. Shortly after Ford's announcement, Mark
Hamill was announced as a presenter in tonight's ceremony.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Uh, all right, Solo got replaced by Skywalker.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Okay, I see how that goes? Very good.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
So Harrison Ford not not doing I do in the Oscars.
Shingles suck. Get vaccinated. They're no fun. Fortunately, I have
not dealt with the shingles. I am speaking as someone
who doesn't ever want to deal with the shingles. I
have a very good friend who had the shingles, and
he said he would not wish that on his worst enemy,
which is something because he has a lot of enemies,
(05:18):
So bad deal.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Leo, you know that's funny. My aunt said the exact
same thing, exact thing.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Yeah, yeah, your aunt have a lot of enemies too, Yeah, yeah,
exactly exactly. What have we got for big wins tonight
is always Seldania winning for Best Supporting Actress, following up
her SAG Award from last weekend. She wins for a
Best Supporting Actress this week, this time in the Oscars.
That's a big deal. Kieran Culkin's same deal one last week.
(05:45):
He follows up with the Best Supporting Actor this week
for his work.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
In Real Pain? Are there any other of the big
the Big East? So waiting on all those?
Speaker 9 (05:56):
Right they're coming?
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Is shallamage to beat? Is he gonna win for Best Actor?
Speaker 10 (06:02):
I mean I can't imagine he would beat Ray Fines.
That would be quite shocking.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
But so it's Ralph finds and conclave and then you've
got But everybody was talking about Adrian Brody and the Brutalist.
Speaker 9 (06:14):
Wait Ralph or it's Rafe, isn't it Raefe?
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Oh? Am? I saying it wrong.
Speaker 9 (06:19):
I believe it's fancy. He needs to spell his name, right, Okay,
go ahead, okay, Uh.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Adrian Brody and the Brutalist.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I haven't seen it, but I'm Adrian Brody is one
of those that whatever he's in I'll watch well.
Speaker 10 (06:30):
He probably will not win, only because there's been that
little bit of a scandal with the Brutalist, Yeah, with
the AI enhancements with their Hungarian accents. So they're saying
that because of that little scandal and because.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Of the old that's not real acting, then.
Speaker 10 (06:47):
It's not real acting, right, they're saying because of that
and the old tweets from the Carla Gascon from Emilia Perez,
they are both out of the running. Now those films
are pretty much supposed to be out of the running.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
I understand the AI argument, but the whole old tweets
now make now mean that your your current performance wasn't good.
I know it's a popularity contest. I get it, You
got it. You gotta whip up votes.
Speaker 9 (07:12):
It's about image. It's all about the image of it,
which is why I think.
Speaker 10 (07:17):
You know, some people are saying that they're going to
give the Oscar to Ray Fines because he has not
won and he was expected to win one for Schindler's List.
Speaker 9 (07:26):
Yeah, and he didn't.
Speaker 10 (07:27):
So they're thinking this may be the Oh, we're gonna
make it up to you now, because Shalomey is a
younger kid.
Speaker 9 (07:33):
He's got a long, long career ahead of him.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
But I don't know the oscars.
Speaker 10 (07:39):
Oh I hate that right, right, we got to make
it up to this guy because we messed up thirty
years ago or whatever.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
I was reading some stuff today about the best films
and how they had to make up like was it, uh,
who did Good Fellows that Scorsese? Yes, yeah, and he
didn't win for good Fellas, so they said he had
they had to make it up to him with The Departed,
which wasn't as good. And they were talking about Ron
Howard and some of his stuff too. But I heard
Conclave might actually get a bump because of the Pope drama.
Speaker 10 (08:11):
Oh maybe, yeah, because of what's happening with the Pope's illness. Yeah,
there might be get some pity votes, but I think
that happened probably before a lot of the voting or
after a lot of the voting closed.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
I know that was one of the conversations because with
Challa May winning the sag Award for Best Actor, they
were thinking, oh, could that tip the scales? But the
voting for the Oscars was already already done, so it
wouldn't have influenced people that maybe take a second look
or whatever that might be. So we will see. I
did read. I don't know if this is true or not. Khille,
(08:41):
you could tell me. If Challa May wins, he would
be the youngest Best Actor winner, and he would be
beating out Adrian Brodie, who won it when he was
twenty nine for The Brutalist. And at one point I
know this, At one point I think, what why is
his name of escaping me? Richard Dreyfus was the youngest.
(09:02):
I think he was twenty nine when he won it
for he went it for Jaws.
Speaker 10 (09:08):
There is I think so, yeah, I think so there
is something about that age range that the Academy voters like.
I think Jennifer Lawrence won two when she was in
her late twenties.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Yeah, they like, well women win at younger ages, Yes, yeah, sure, yeah,
which is Yeah, it's on pharisees.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I'm gonna go.
Speaker 9 (09:29):
Ahead and say, unhais is a legit concern.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
I got nothing else on the askers, you guys got anything.
I'm going until we get some more winners.
Speaker 10 (09:39):
I mean, I'm watching it. I'm gonna talk about what happened.
Uh did I talk about what happened with Hulu already?
Speaker 9 (09:45):
I think I did you.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Get in your news? Are they're down?
Speaker 9 (09:49):
Hulu is down?
Speaker 11 (09:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (09:50):
Hulu was down and crash right as the office started.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (09:54):
I was at home with my family. We had popcorn,
we had snacks.
Speaker 10 (09:57):
I was going to watch for a little while before
I came into work because I wanted see Conan's monologue
and opening bits. And Hulu crashed. There was nothing on
Disney Plus. And we don't have cable where we are
all on coord no cord cordless whatever it is, what
it is called.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
And is that with the whole family sitting out in
the green room watching.
Speaker 9 (10:18):
Yeah, pretty much that I brought them all to work.
Speaker 10 (10:20):
I was like, watch them work, but yeah, it crashed
and it was trending on Twitter. Everyone's like, you know,
swearing off Disney Plus and Hulu forever because it just
what a mess, you know, And apparently people do still
watch the oscars.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
So yeah, well, and when you've got everybody trying to
stream all at the same time, it becomes a problem.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Right, how about that? Okay, we'll continue there.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
It was a really really really really bad week for
some really really really really really notable people.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
Just how bad was it? That's next?

You're listening on the app.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Talk back question tonight, will Gavin Newsom be recalled this
time around? There's another recall effort. This time they've got
Mel Gibson support people upset about the fire preparation, the response,
and they say, this is it. We got to sync
that Newsome ship. He has withstood recall efforts in the past,
will he withstand this one? Overwhelmingly people say he's gonna
(11:30):
make it whether they want him to or not. They
say he's going to survive, and then they lament that
the state is too far left. Others say he will
make it because he's corrupt. Anyway, We've had a little
bit of feedback. Love to get your feedback. That the
talkback button there's on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
All right, there's no business like shell business bad bad week.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Celebrity deaths. You know, they say they come in threes.
We are way over the top on threeses here Angie
Stone the latest who's passed away?
Speaker 12 (12:04):
You know it?
Speaker 13 (12:05):
Four R and B Soul singer Angie Stone has died
following a car crash. She was on the way to
Atlanta following a performance. The crash happened when her and
nine others were traveling from Alabama to Georgia. It's unclear
what caused the crash or if anyone else was hurt.
(12:26):
The Grammy nominated singer is behind several hits, including Whish
I Didn't Miss You. Stone leaves behind her son and
the lasting musical legacy.
Speaker 8 (12:33):
She was sixty three years old.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Too young, Angie Stone.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
You saw ROBERTA Flack she was earlier this week, right,
but then we get ROBERTA. Flack has passed away. But
she was a little bit older, right, she was eighty eight,
and we go, ah, that's really too bad. It gives
us a chance to remember, you know, her number ones
and that kind of thing, and maybe introduce her to
a generation they didn't hear a lot of ROBERTA.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
Flax.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
So she passes away. For the generation they didn't know ROBERTA. Flack,
they probably knew Michelle Tracktenberg. Michelle Tracktenberg from Gossip Girls.
She was on a number of other films. I would say,
what right around for like from two thousand on. I
mean she was like a Nickelodeon kid, right.
Speaker 8 (13:16):
I was Harriet the Spy in myka Is. Yeah, Harry
at the Spy. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (13:21):
I cried for her. That was That's awful. Yeah I hurt.
I stn't hurt too, but that hurt too.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
So this is great. I got a headline here from
USA Today. Here's your headline, Michelle Tracktenberg. Cause of death revealed.
All right, so what is it? From maybe C seven, we're.
Speaker 14 (13:37):
Also learning new details about the death of actress Michelle Tracktenberg.
The New York City Medical Examiner has officially ruled the
cause and manner of her death as undetermined.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Undetermined officially USA today, maybe we rewrite that headline, cause
of death revealed undetermined.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Uh looking for that clickbit, don't you.
Speaker 14 (14:00):
That's because the thirty nine year old's family objected to
an autopsy for religious reasons, so a full investigation could
not be carried out. Traktenberg's mother found her dad in
her Midtown apartment yesterday morning. There's no suspicion of foul playing,
sources tell ABC News the Gossip Girl star had recently
had a liver transplant.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Oh, and may have had complication.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Oh, I didn't know that. Well, that stinks. I hate
when when people die so young. If I had told
you this week that Gene Hackman passed away, you would think, oh,
that's too bad. But Gene Hackman was in his nineties,
and you go, okay, well that's really too bad. Really
(14:41):
liked him and this and that and this and that, right,
and we list all the different movies that he did.
Except his death becomes really, really really weird. And the
details have flown out this week. And I'm sure that
I'm sure that you've heard about they found him dead,
then they found the wife dead and she had pills
spread out all over the place, and then the dog
(15:03):
was dead.
Speaker 11 (15:04):
That's odd Tales today on the death of Gene Hackman
and his wife Betsy. The list of items that were
found at the home has been released. They were both
found dead alongside one of their dogs in their New
Mexico home Wednesday, but they were.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Not alongside the dog.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
In the words, they were found dead, as was the dog,
but they were not alongside each other, let alone the dog.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
The dog was locked in a closet.
Speaker 11 (15:27):
Detectives say, or detectives at the scene rather seized two
cell phones, prescription and over the counter medication, as well
as monthly a monthly planner. There according to the search warrant,
Hackman's wife was found near an open pill bottle and
a space heater. Carbon monoxide and toxicology tests have been
ordered for the couple.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
And now we've got the latest on what happened with
the carbon monoxide test, because look, two people and a
dog dying in the house, you kind of think, no,
it sounds like carbon monoxide poisoning.
Speaker 15 (15:55):
We have breaking news and the death of actor Gene.
Speaker 9 (15:57):
Hackman and his wife Betsy.
Speaker 15 (15:59):
Just what than the hour Investigators revealed both tested negative
for carbon monoxide, ruling out one possible cause, and that
Hackman's pacemaker recorded a quote event on February seventeenth.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Oh, which is why we're starting to think the seventeenth
is the day that he died.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
There was an event.
Speaker 15 (16:17):
Which the pathologist believes may have been the day Hackman died.
The two were found inside their New Mexico, New Mexico
home this week. He was ninety five, she was sixty five.
Investigators say the couple may have been dead for days,
possibly even weeks.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Yeah, I mean, if it was the seventeenth, they found
him on the twenty seventh, I mean, you do the math.
Speaker 15 (16:37):
And initial autopsy revealed no trauma, and investigators found no
signs of a crime. They are now waiting for the
results of toxicology tests.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
All right, so irresponsible speculation, go. What happened?
Speaker 8 (16:51):
Tayla Kyley failed out?
Speaker 9 (16:54):
Okay, Heather, I'm not paying attention.
Speaker 8 (16:59):
Can we say carbon man?
Speaker 7 (16:59):
I No, Well, you said wrong, answers.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
Here's what I'm saying.
Speaker 16 (17:05):
Okay, the dog got into the pills Jesus right, and then, uh,
the wife was so upset that she took a bunch
of pills and then Gene Hackman came in and found
the wife didn't even know about the dog because the
dog went into the closet and uh, and then it
was so upset that his heart stopped done.
Speaker 9 (17:24):
I think it was the other way around.
Speaker 10 (17:25):
I think Geene had Good died, yeah, and then I
think she was so upset, yes, that she took some pills.
And I think the dog was locked in a crate,
not the closet, and they couldn't escape and died of starvation.
Speaker 8 (17:39):
WHOA, I know there.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Was another dog that was there was one dog outside,
one dog inside that survived, and then there was one
that was I read closet. But maybe it was great, okay,
survival dog. I think probably the starvation thing. I mean,
if the dog was locked in there for ten days,
it makes sense, right. So I think we're going to
find out the dog died a pretty horrific way.
Speaker 10 (17:58):
Yeah, I think so. But that's what I think happened.
I think she was so distraught. I mean they were
married for thirty years, and maybe she just didn't you know,
I don't know.
Speaker 9 (18:07):
A lot of speculation happening here.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
A lot of speculation. We won't know the answer until
they tell us. But let's speculate a it.
Speaker 10 (18:14):
But to be fair, that's also fair a little bit.
What the police do too. They kind of speculate and
piece things together with you.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
And then they rule out there, they rule out their
we're just helping.
Speaker 9 (18:25):
We're just helping them alone.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Yeah, exactly what we're doing. You're welcome, No New Mexico Police.
You listen to the show, but I haven't heard you
say you're welcome. You're you don't have the part to
not say you're welcome.
Speaker 9 (18:39):
You need to say thank you, to be grateful, you.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Need to say thank you. Wear a suit? Would you believe?
Conspiracy theories abound? That is next.

Chris Merril kf I AM six forty. We're live everywhere

You're listening to kfi AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Chris Merril, KFI AM six forty more Stimulate talk.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
Heather, Any updates on any of the people that we.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Want to know, the big the big categories for the Oscars, actor, director, actress, picture.
Haven't gotten any of that, right, We got the supporting
actor Kieran Culkin, supporting actress Zoe Saldana.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
All right, very good, thank you so much. Appreciate that.
Oh good news. Wolf Blitzer was wrong when he said.
Speaker 16 (19:27):
For those of you just joining us, we are all
going to die.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Nope, crisis averted. Surely you heard the news earlier.
Speaker 17 (19:35):
This week that scientists redid their math. You know that
large building size asteroid. Scientists kept increasing the chances that
it will hit Earth in seven years. Turns out it's
probably not going to do so.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
After all.
Speaker 17 (19:47):
When scientists first identified asteroid twenty twenty four y are four,
they said there was about a two percent chance it
could hit the Earth in twenty thirty two, and it
kept inching up bit by bit to about three percent.
But now, after months of observ scientists have lowered the
chances to point zero zero two seven percent, so not likely.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
NASA does say there's still a decent chance it could
hit the moon. Those odds also expected to drop a
good rap.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Okay, here's here's my hot take on this. First of all,
I know what happened with the whole math thing. They
had to wait for a few more data points so
that they coul get the trajectory. Part of this had
to do with it being behind the moon and hard
to see and in order to get the info.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
Blah blah blah. Okay, got it.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
So they do their maths and they say, probably not
going to hit us, but it could still hit the moon.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Is it any Is it just my anxiety?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
I have this anxiety thing, right, I get worried about
dumb stuff all the time. Is it my anxiety that
the idea that this asteroid could hit the moon makes
me feel worse? Because when they were projecting that it
could hit the Earth, they were saying it would hit
in the Southern Hemisphere, and I thought.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
I'm good.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
I know it shows an incredible lack of empathy for
people I don't know, strangers elsewhere. I know, I get that,
and I would hate to see that happen. But let's
also face it, southern hemisphere has a lot of water, right.
They have an extra ocean in the Southern hemisphere. They're
the Indian Ocean in the Southern hemisphere, and they got
the South Atlantic, South Pacific and everything else.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
So here's where I get a little worried.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
I'm no astrophysicists, thank god, but I have played pool before,
and I know that you use the cube ball to
hit the other balls, which could then carrm. If this
thing hits the Moon, is it just gonna hit the
Moon and go and just add another crater to the Moon.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Maybe? I mean I've seen pictures of the moon. Maybe
just hits the Moon just that's it?
Speaker 5 (21:52):
Cool?
Speaker 11 (21:53):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Neat? I mean, we'll have time to put cameras up
to watch it happen. Could be.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
But is it possible it hits the Moon and then
banks and now all of a sudden we're screwed again?
Speaker 3 (22:05):
Am I so crazy for thinking this?
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I mean, if it's a direct hit on the dark
side of the moon, cool, But if it's not, are
we just setting ourselves.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
Up for problems?
Speaker 2 (22:15):
And if this thing is so massive and the Moon is,
you know, one sixth our size, is it massive enough
to alter the trajectory of the Moon, the orbit of
the Moon, because that would be very bad for us
as well. We kind of rely on the Moon's gravity
for a lot of what we do here on Earth,
like everything the tides, the ocean currents. With the currents,
(22:40):
we get the jet streams. With the jet stream we
get our weather. I mean, we're talking mass hysteria, cats
and dogs living in harmony. It's gonna be absolute terror
but again, I just worry about dumb stuff. I have
no idea. I understand I could just bring this, but
do I know. I just lie awake at night thinking
about this rather than just easing my own fears by
(23:01):
reading about it.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Because here's what I found out about the Internet. It sucks.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
And when you read the Internet, that's when you find
out that your common cold is probably proanchial cancer of
some sort. So when I go to the Internet and
I say, can an asteroid cream off the moon and
then hit the Earth? The Internet will say yes, and
you're probably gonna die. Or if I say, well, alter
the trajectory of the moon, and it will say yes,
(23:26):
even a small alteration of the trajectory of the moon,
and all of humankind will cease to exist, but it
will take a long time and be a miserable death.
That's what I find when I read the Internet. This
is why my wife shuts the Internet off as soon
as I'm off the air. She's like, that's it. You
read enough news today, You're done.
Speaker 8 (23:46):
You make a lot of sense.
Speaker 7 (23:48):
You ask a lot of questions in that little rant.
Speaker 8 (23:50):
Yes, yes, you are creepy.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
I prefer call it thinking aloud, not ranting, but go.
Speaker 8 (23:55):
On, Okay, yes, you asked if you were crazy.
Speaker 7 (23:58):
The answers yes to that, Yes, But honestly, your theory
does make a little bit of sense. And now I
have to wonder am I crazy like Chris Merrill because
it sounds pretty logical to me honestly.
Speaker 8 (24:09):
Yep, yeah, see yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
What what we thought was gonna maybe just land harmlessly
on a taco bell target in the middle of the
Indian Ocean is now going to bounce and it's gonna
take out Orange County.
Speaker 8 (24:27):
Oh not the OC.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Yep, you can take out the oce.
Speaker 8 (24:30):
We need the OC.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
That's it. You're gonna take out the OC, oh man, and.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Then we're gonna be able to say this was a
plan by Newsom and the California Democrats to take out
Orange County.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
I'm not not even stretching this so much.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
From a recent deadly flooding in Kentucky to the north
to the Florida and North Carolina monster hurricanes, Americans are
amplified increasingly conspiratorial explanations for extreme weather events, blaming manufactured
clouds for blocking sunlight for the devastation.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
You've got people like Marjorie.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Taylor Green who says that the Democrats are controlling the weather.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
Yep So.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
In Kentucky, Republican John Hodgson said that he introduced a
bill to prevent scientific experiments in the atmosphere because his constituents, quote,
do not want to allow any government attempts to modify
the solar radiation or weather. So that we've had a
(25:32):
lot of catastrophes. You had hurricanes, you had flooding in
North Carolina, there was an earthquake this week in Midland, Texas.
Obviously fires here, and I think it's safe to say
that certainly has nothing to do with the climate changing
that as we all know, as a hoax or conspiracy,
a scam, but it is probably because you've got a
(25:56):
fleet of scientists who have yet to be uncovered by DOGE,
who are controlling natural disasters for the benefit of Joseph
Robinette Biden fair.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Indisputable.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Iowa House subcommittee hearing on a bill this week to
ban geo engineering, also known as chim trails. So twenty
three Republicans in Iowa backing that bill to ban chemtrails.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
All right.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Another says they are seeing massive next red frequencies going
off in Florida looks like it originates from an air
Force base. The supposition, of course, is that the government
is setting off weather modification by using geo engineering aka chemtrails.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Yeah, there we go.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Florida's editor wants to ban weather modification that passed out
of Committee sixty three, saying it's an important issue, which
is air quality. It can obviously have disastrous effects on humans.
That's been documented. He says, it is happening, and obviously
(27:21):
we are certainly not going to assume that there is
anything else that could be potentially responsible for an increase
in fluctuations in the weather or additional natural disasters. Nothing
else could be the root of those causes. Is doctor
Wendy coming in? Is she ready? We're gonna talk with
doctor Wendy Wallah. I'm gonna get by free five minutes
(27:42):
of therapy. Hopefully it's something you wanted to talk about too.
In fact, I'm not the only one trying to get
a little extra therapy.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
The new wedding trend, that is.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
What we've all been saying you should be doing for
a long time, but nobody wants to because we're afraid
of what the counselor might say.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
That is next. Chris Merril K six forty. We live
everywhere on the iHeart Radio app.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand a Chris.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Merril KFI AM six forty more stimulating talk on demand
anytime the iHeart Ready app. Broll Love you, buddy. It's
been great hanging out once again. I only only wish
I could get to spend more time with you throughout
the week.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Instead, we'll just have to continue our romance.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Through Instagram, which I find is how a lot of
guys communicate nowadays. We just sent Instagram videos back and
forth telling the other one they're they're weak, sissy's. I
don't know what that is. It's just how we communicate.
And then, Kayla, you were on it today. I'm gonna
give you credit. You were on it today.
Speaker 8 (28:44):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Yeah. Generally speaking, you came in, you came in hot.
I like that.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Well done, Well done, Heather Brooker. You know how excited
I am that here.
Speaker 9 (28:54):
I know, I'm so excited to be back.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
All right, Well, I hope that you're here more often too.
This is the Red Doctor. Wendy Walsh.
Speaker 12 (29:02):
Hey, Hey, Hey, of course Heather's going to be here forever.
Did you see the giant sign out of the hallway
welcome back Heather. It had balloons and flowers and candles.
They can't spend that budget and not have her stay around.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Yeah, you make a good point. That is awkward. That
is awkward to say. Guys, remember when we welcome Heather back,
we're letting her go.
Speaker 12 (29:29):
Actually, I did notice it was done kind of in
whiteboard marker her name.
Speaker 8 (29:32):
Maybe you could just.
Speaker 9 (29:33):
Just wipe it out.
Speaker 10 (29:35):
Parton and I keep saying, fool me once, shame on you. Yeah,
it's on me.
Speaker 9 (29:42):
You I get it.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
Uh, doctor Wendey, I wanted to ask you. I had
a couple of stories and I keep my out for
these all week. Once is that married men are finally
doing more housework, not enough.
Speaker 3 (29:53):
Yeah, that's more.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Well, and they're saying that it's sort of, uh, we
still have gender rules and what the housework is, so
men might do some more dishes, but women are still
doing more of the cleaning, the vacuuming, the laundry kind
of stuff. Child and a lot of that, they said,
goes back to World War Two, where women were entering
the workforce to pay the bills while husbands were off fighting,
(30:17):
but we still fell back into the same gender roles
when it was, you know, the male dominated male brings
in the paycheck, women raises the kids and keeps the house,
and it was sort of like that was a signed.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
How far back in history does that go? All the
way back in history? Has it always been?
Speaker 11 (30:32):
Like?
Speaker 12 (30:32):
No, it's the birth of capitalism, really, and the birth
of the industrial age, So labor if you've ever spent
any time living in a rural area, and anybody who's
listening who lives in a rural area certainly knows that
the division of roles is like, whatever needs to be
done on the farm gets done whoever's there, Right, there's
(30:54):
actually less hard delineation. What happens when we started to
become urban and the industrial revolution came is that men
literally left the homestead. They had to go to work
somewhere else, and this workplace was very male ordered, and
that's when women were left to freaking do it all right,
(31:15):
So that's the beginning of it, and it's slowly the
pendulum swinging back. I'm happy to tell you that I
married the best guy in the world who cleans constantly
and loves to fold laundry, doesn't let me do it
because I do it wrong, doesn't let me do dishes
because I do it wrong.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
Yep.
Speaker 9 (31:33):
So I'm really lucky.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
Hey, I'm glad you brought that out. How do you
deal with that?
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Because my wife gets really upset when I say you're
doing it wrong. Now, part of that is obviously the
way I'm delivering that message.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
I get that. So she says, well, we've.
Speaker 9 (31:47):
Been sitting down and have your wine.
Speaker 8 (31:48):
I got this.
Speaker 12 (31:50):
But when I do get up and put impose myself
and start washing things, He's like, no, no, no, no, no, really,
I like to do it my way.
Speaker 8 (31:57):
Sit down.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
See that's good, that's smart.
Speaker 7 (32:01):
I just saw Jleo in the in the break rum
and I saw him picking up a basketball and I'm like, oh,
you're gonna go shoot some hoops. And he started organizing
the basketballs in the He was clean cleaning the kitchen
area conference room. Even when he's here, he cleans and tidies.
We could call it OCD, but we don't diagnose these
things when they're functional.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
Is there ever a time that you think you know,
I'm not doing it?
Speaker 2 (32:24):
Because my wife, again, she gets she's kind of a
control freak, and she gets very possessive. So they always
talk about how one person loads the dishwasher like they
are setting up the space shuttle, and the other one
like they're a rabid raccoon on cocaine. And so I'm
the one that has an order to everything. She's the
one that just tosses everything in, and this is it,
(32:44):
and I just I just rearrange it, and I go,
you know what, the dishes are going to come clean
if we do it my way, they're not gonna get
us clean. If she's got you know, she'll nestle bowls
together and spoons together.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
And it makes me crazy. Uh, And I just do it.
I don't even correct.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Here, I just do it. And then she gets mad
at me for doing it. Oh, she gets mad for
refolding my t shirts because she does it wrong.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
I don't say anything. I just redo it right.
Speaker 12 (33:05):
So I always say whose problem is?
Speaker 9 (33:07):
Who's right?
Speaker 12 (33:09):
So is her messy dishwasher her problem? No, for some reason,
it's yours.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
So that is when I eat off dirty dishes, because
she also doesn't make sure that they're cleaning.
Speaker 3 (33:16):
She takes them out.
Speaker 12 (33:18):
So anyway, I think you have a right to fix it.
If you want to. But at the same time, you
should understand that she does feel a little insulted and
has feelings, so you have to compensate by giving her
extra compliments and love and saying that.
Speaker 2 (33:34):
I'm doing housework, and now I have to give her
extra compliments to do the housework.
Speaker 12 (33:38):
Because you're doing it in a critical way.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Now, this is crap. This is absolute crap. You know what.
This is why men go to work.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
That's exactly because we tried to help and we were
told we were doing it wrong.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
But we know we're.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Doing it right because we have logical brains and we
know how it gets done right.
Speaker 3 (33:57):
And man, agree with me right now, just to let
you know.
Speaker 12 (34:00):
I don't think we can lump all men into one category.
Chris marril, I agree with me right now.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
That's the way it works. Doctor Wendy, I love talking
to you. Have a wonderful show. I hope to learn
as much over the course of the next three hours
as I have in the last five minutes.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
You are absolutely brilliant. I can't wait.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Thank you all right, doctor Wendy Walsh, Doctor Wendy after
Dark is next until next weekend. Have a wonderful week
Chris Merril KFI AM six forty. We're live everywhere in
the iHeartRadio app
Speaker 1 (34:27):
KFI AM six forty on demand
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Take it in me, Chris Maryland, I AM six forty
more stimulating talk guy to man anytime the iHeart Radio App.
I asked the question, if you're listening on the iHeart
Radio app, but just hit that talkback button? Will Gavin
Newsom be recalled this time around? People have been trying
to recall him since he was first elected in his
first term. One recall effort did make it to the ballot,
(00:25):
and he won by what would be a landslide, sixty
to forty, almost roughly the same percentage that he won
the election with originally on the same percentage that he
won re election with. That's how much he beat the
impeachment And now, excuse me, recall, not impeachment. Recall Now?
Will he be recalled this time around? Your thoughts on
(00:47):
the talkback.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Get to this? Why is my stuff not playing here? Ready?
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Go?
Speaker 5 (00:56):
Nobody gets voted out in California?
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Okay, my stuff is freezing? What's going on here? Keiley?
Speaker 5 (01:02):
Nobody's voted on California because the voting process, the voting system,
all the voting rooms they use, is so corrupt and bad.
That's why nobody ever gets voted out? Pete for Marrige County. Bye,
all right, thanks Pete. Appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Actually, I think, isn't California one of only a handful
of states that has ever recalled a governor?
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Great Davis, Yeah, all right, other thoughts. Always happy to
get your talkbacks. Hey, Chris, great job again tonight. Thank you.
Speaker 6 (01:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Hey, the price of eggs? That's really interesting.
Speaker 6 (01:38):
Okay, why can't you talk more about how the guy
you voted for, Cayla?
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Who'd I vote for?
Speaker 7 (01:46):
I'm not sure because you don't talk about it that
much on the show.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Very good, right answer, Cayla, Well done, Thank you. Sucks.
Speaker 6 (01:52):
Vladimir Putin's oh, oh we have a Russian agent in
the White House. That's way important, way more of the
crap you're talking about. Wow, we got a Russian agent
in our White House? Trees it is Trump sucks.
Speaker 8 (02:08):
Putin's Oh he's fun.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Well, he seems nice.
Speaker 8 (02:13):
What a pleasure to be around. I think that guy, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
All right, that's fun.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
You think he goes to the grocery store and people
are like, man, can you believe the price of eggs?
Speaker 3 (02:24):
And he's like, oh, you think eggs are expensive. You
should see what Trump is doing to putin Yeah, sir,
this is a Ralph's all right, there's no business like.
So here we go. Oscars happening now. Very good.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Johnny Us is the great. Heather Brooker Brooker, nice to
have you back.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Where you been.
Speaker 9 (03:01):
You know on TV?
Speaker 3 (03:03):
I know what's uh?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
I loved your Apple commercial? What else are you? What
else are you doing? Your Christmas commercial for the iPhone
was great. I ran right up got one.
Speaker 9 (03:14):
I'm so glad it's for Apple Pay. It's different. You
don't have to get the whole phone, just use Apple Pay.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Oh that cost me fifteen hundred bucks.
Speaker 7 (03:23):
Next time, check with me first. I use Applelay all
the time. Thanks to you, Heather. Oh I just used
it that alta earlier, and I was like, you could
take Heather.
Speaker 9 (03:29):
Like things, Heather are encouraging this ulta purchase.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
You know.
Speaker 10 (03:34):
I'm just busy, just mostly taking care of my mom.
My mom is elderly and needs a lot of help
and care, and taking care of my kid and just honestly.
Speaker 9 (03:45):
Enjoying a little break. Okay, happy to be back.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Though happy to be I was way more boring than
I was hoping.
Speaker 10 (03:52):
Sorry, excited to say, but I am happy to be back.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
I missed you, guys, I missed you. There's no doubt
I missed you. I I lied awake and I cried.
Speaker 11 (04:01):
I know.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Yeah. Oscars going on tonight.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
One person you're not going to see there is one
of the greats of a generation.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Harrison Ford. Not at the Oscars. Harrison, Oh, hold on,
bring that volume back up. I was playing that music.
Speaker 4 (04:14):
Sin Ford will not present that the oscar is due
to an illness, His populosist confirms. The eighty two year
old actor was diagnosed with shingles on Friday.
Speaker 9 (04:23):
Oh the worst, but also how gross. Why would you
tell people that like publicly?
Speaker 2 (04:29):
I mean, God, maybe he's gonna start like the Shingles Foundation.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
And canceled his plan appearance Go ahead tonight. The Indiana
Jones and Star Wars star was seen last week at
the Screen Actor's Guild Awards. Shortly after Ford's announcement, Mark
Hamill was announced as a presenter in tonight's ceremony.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Uh, all right, Solo got replaced by Skywalker.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Okay, I see how that goes? Very good.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
So Harrison Ford not not doing I do in the Oscars.
Shingles suck. Get vaccinated. They're no fun. Fortunately, I have
not dealt with the shingles. I am speaking as someone
who doesn't ever want to deal with the shingles. I
have a very good friend who had the shingles, and
he said he would not wish that on his worst enemy,
which is something because he has a lot of enemies,
(05:18):
So bad deal.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Leo, you know that's funny. My aunt said the exact
same thing, exact thing.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Yeah, yeah, your aunt have a lot of enemies too, Yeah, yeah,
exactly exactly. What have we got for big wins tonight
is always Seldania winning for Best Supporting Actress, following up
her SAG Award from last weekend. She wins for a
Best Supporting Actress this week, this time in the Oscars.
That's a big deal. Kieran Culkin's same deal one last week.
(05:45):
He follows up with the Best Supporting Actor this week
for his work.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
In Real Pain? Are there any other of the big
the Big East? So waiting on all those?
Speaker 9 (05:56):
Right they're coming?
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Is shallamage to beat? Is he gonna win for Best Actor?
Speaker 10 (06:02):
I mean I can't imagine he would beat Ray Fines.
That would be quite shocking.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
But so it's Ralph finds and conclave and then you've
got But everybody was talking about Adrian Brody and the Brutalist.
Speaker 9 (06:14):
Wait Ralph or it's Rafe, isn't it Raefe?
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Oh? Am? I saying it wrong.
Speaker 9 (06:19):
I believe it's fancy. He needs to spell his name, right, Okay,
go ahead, okay, Uh.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Adrian Brody and the Brutalist.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I haven't seen it, but I'm Adrian Brody is one
of those that whatever he's in I'll watch well.
Speaker 10 (06:30):
He probably will not win, only because there's been that
little bit of a scandal with the Brutalist, Yeah, with
the AI enhancements with their Hungarian accents. So they're saying
that because of that little scandal and because.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Of the old that's not real acting, then.
Speaker 10 (06:47):
It's not real acting, right, they're saying because of that
and the old tweets from the Carla Gascon from Emilia Perez,
they are both out of the running. Now those films
are pretty much supposed to be out of the running.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
I understand the AI argument, but the whole old tweets
now make now mean that your your current performance wasn't good.
I know it's a popularity contest. I get it, You
got it. You gotta whip up votes.
Speaker 9 (07:12):
It's about image. It's all about the image of it,
which is why I think.
Speaker 10 (07:17):
You know, some people are saying that they're going to
give the Oscar to Ray Fines because he has not
won and he was expected to win one for Schindler's List.
Speaker 9 (07:26):
Yeah, and he didn't.
Speaker 10 (07:27):
So they're thinking this may be the Oh, we're gonna
make it up to you now, because Shalomey is a
younger kid.
Speaker 9 (07:33):
He's got a long, long career ahead of him.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
But I don't know the oscars.
Speaker 10 (07:39):
Oh I hate that right, right, we got to make
it up to this guy because we messed up thirty
years ago or whatever.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
I was reading some stuff today about the best films
and how they had to make up like was it, uh,
who did Good Fellows that Scorsese? Yes, yeah, and he
didn't win for good Fellas, so they said he had
they had to make it up to him with The Departed,
which wasn't as good. And they were talking about Ron
Howard and some of his stuff too. But I heard
Conclave might actually get a bump because of the Pope drama.
Speaker 10 (08:11):
Oh maybe, yeah, because of what's happening with the Pope's illness. Yeah,
there might be get some pity votes, but I think
that happened probably before a lot of the voting or
after a lot of the voting closed.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
I know that was one of the conversations because with
Challa May winning the sag Award for Best Actor, they
were thinking, oh, could that tip the scales? But the
voting for the Oscars was already already done, so it
wouldn't have influenced people that maybe take a second look
or whatever that might be. So we will see. I
did read. I don't know if this is true or not. Khille,
(08:41):
you could tell me. If Challa May wins, he would
be the youngest Best Actor winner, and he would be
beating out Adrian Brodie, who won it when he was
twenty nine for The Brutalist. And at one point I
know this, At one point I think, what why is
his name of escaping me? Richard Dreyfus was the youngest.
(09:02):
I think he was twenty nine when he won it
for he went it for Jaws.
Speaker 10 (09:08):
There is I think so, yeah, I think so there
is something about that age range that the Academy voters like.
I think Jennifer Lawrence won two when she was in
her late twenties.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Yeah, they like, well women win at younger ages, Yes, yeah, sure, yeah,
which is Yeah, it's on pharisees.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I'm gonna go.
Speaker 9 (09:29):
Ahead and say, unhais is a legit concern.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
I got nothing else on the askers, you guys got anything.
I'm going until we get some more winners.
Speaker 10 (09:39):
I mean, I'm watching it. I'm gonna talk about what happened.
Uh did I talk about what happened with Hulu already?
Speaker 9 (09:45):
I think I did you.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Get in your news? Are they're down?
Speaker 9 (09:49):
Hulu is down?
Speaker 11 (09:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (09:50):
Hulu was down and crash right as the office started.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (09:54):
I was at home with my family. We had popcorn,
we had snacks.
Speaker 10 (09:57):
I was going to watch for a little while before
I came into work because I wanted see Conan's monologue
and opening bits. And Hulu crashed. There was nothing on
Disney Plus. And we don't have cable where we are
all on coord no cord cordless whatever it is, what
it is called.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
And is that with the whole family sitting out in
the green room watching.
Speaker 9 (10:18):
Yeah, pretty much that I brought them all to work.
Speaker 10 (10:20):
I was like, watch them work, but yeah, it crashed
and it was trending on Twitter. Everyone's like, you know,
swearing off Disney Plus and Hulu forever because it just
what a mess, you know, And apparently people do still
watch the oscars.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
So yeah, well, and when you've got everybody trying to
stream all at the same time, it becomes a problem.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Right, how about that? Okay, we'll continue there.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
It was a really really really really bad week for
some really really really really really notable people.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
Just how bad was it? That's next?

You're listening on the app.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Talk back question tonight, will Gavin Newsom be recalled this
time around? There's another recall effort. This time they've got
Mel Gibson support people upset about the fire preparation, the response,
and they say, this is it. We got to sync
that Newsome ship. He has withstood recall efforts in the past,
will he withstand this one? Overwhelmingly people say he's gonna
(11:30):
make it whether they want him to or not. They
say he's going to survive, and then they lament that
the state is too far left. Others say he will
make it because he's corrupt. Anyway, We've had a little
bit of feedback. Love to get your feedback. That the
talkback button there's on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
All right, there's no business like shell business bad bad week.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Celebrity deaths. You know, they say they come in threes.
We are way over the top on threeses here Angie
Stone the latest who's passed away?
Speaker 12 (12:04):
You know it?
Speaker 13 (12:05):
Four R and B Soul singer Angie Stone has died
following a car crash. She was on the way to
Atlanta following a performance. The crash happened when her and
nine others were traveling from Alabama to Georgia. It's unclear
what caused the crash or if anyone else was hurt.
(12:26):
The Grammy nominated singer is behind several hits, including Whish
I Didn't Miss You. Stone leaves behind her son and
the lasting musical legacy.
Speaker 8 (12:33):
She was sixty three years old.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Too young, Angie Stone.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
You saw ROBERTA Flack she was earlier this week, right,
but then we get ROBERTA. Flack has passed away. But
she was a little bit older, right, she was eighty eight,
and we go, ah, that's really too bad. It gives
us a chance to remember, you know, her number ones
and that kind of thing, and maybe introduce her to
a generation they didn't hear a lot of ROBERTA.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
Flax.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
So she passes away. For the generation they didn't know ROBERTA. Flack,
they probably knew Michelle Tracktenberg. Michelle Tracktenberg from Gossip Girls.
She was on a number of other films. I would say,
what right around for like from two thousand on. I
mean she was like a Nickelodeon kid, right.
Speaker 8 (13:16):
I was Harriet the Spy in myka Is. Yeah, Harry
at the Spy. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (13:21):
I cried for her. That was That's awful. Yeah I hurt.
I stn't hurt too, but that hurt too.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
So this is great. I got a headline here from
USA Today. Here's your headline, Michelle Tracktenberg. Cause of death revealed.
All right, so what is it? From maybe C seven, we're.
Speaker 14 (13:37):
Also learning new details about the death of actress Michelle Tracktenberg.
The New York City Medical Examiner has officially ruled the
cause and manner of her death as undetermined.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Undetermined officially USA today, maybe we rewrite that headline, cause
of death revealed undetermined.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Uh looking for that clickbit, don't you.
Speaker 14 (14:00):
That's because the thirty nine year old's family objected to
an autopsy for religious reasons, so a full investigation could
not be carried out. Traktenberg's mother found her dad in
her Midtown apartment yesterday morning. There's no suspicion of foul playing,
sources tell ABC News the Gossip Girl star had recently
had a liver transplant.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Oh, and may have had complication.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Oh, I didn't know that. Well, that stinks. I hate
when when people die so young. If I had told
you this week that Gene Hackman passed away, you would think, oh,
that's too bad. But Gene Hackman was in his nineties,
and you go, okay, well that's really too bad. Really
(14:41):
liked him and this and that and this and that, right,
and we list all the different movies that he did.
Except his death becomes really, really really weird. And the
details have flown out this week. And I'm sure that
I'm sure that you've heard about they found him dead,
then they found the wife dead and she had pills
spread out all over the place, and then the dog
(15:03):
was dead.
Speaker 11 (15:04):
That's odd Tales today on the death of Gene Hackman
and his wife Betsy. The list of items that were
found at the home has been released. They were both
found dead alongside one of their dogs in their New
Mexico home Wednesday, but they were.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Not alongside the dog.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
In the words, they were found dead, as was the dog,
but they were not alongside each other, let alone the dog.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
The dog was locked in a closet.
Speaker 11 (15:27):
Detectives say, or detectives at the scene rather seized two
cell phones, prescription and over the counter medication, as well
as monthly a monthly planner. There according to the search warrant,
Hackman's wife was found near an open pill bottle and
a space heater. Carbon monoxide and toxicology tests have been
ordered for the couple.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
And now we've got the latest on what happened with
the carbon monoxide test, because look, two people and a
dog dying in the house, you kind of think, no,
it sounds like carbon monoxide poisoning.
Speaker 15 (15:55):
We have breaking news and the death of actor Gene.
Speaker 9 (15:57):
Hackman and his wife Betsy.
Speaker 15 (15:59):
Just what than the hour Investigators revealed both tested negative
for carbon monoxide, ruling out one possible cause, and that
Hackman's pacemaker recorded a quote event on February seventeenth.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Oh, which is why we're starting to think the seventeenth
is the day that he died.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
There was an event.
Speaker 15 (16:17):
Which the pathologist believes may have been the day Hackman died.
The two were found inside their New Mexico, New Mexico
home this week. He was ninety five, she was sixty five.
Investigators say the couple may have been dead for days,
possibly even weeks.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Yeah, I mean, if it was the seventeenth, they found
him on the twenty seventh, I mean, you do the math.
Speaker 15 (16:37):
And initial autopsy revealed no trauma, and investigators found no
signs of a crime. They are now waiting for the
results of toxicology tests.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
All right, so irresponsible speculation, go. What happened?
Speaker 8 (16:51):
Tayla Kyley failed out?
Speaker 9 (16:54):
Okay, Heather, I'm not paying attention.
Speaker 8 (16:59):
Can we say carbon man?
Speaker 7 (16:59):
I No, Well, you said wrong, answers.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
Here's what I'm saying.
Speaker 16 (17:05):
Okay, the dog got into the pills Jesus right, and then, uh,
the wife was so upset that she took a bunch
of pills and then Gene Hackman came in and found
the wife didn't even know about the dog because the
dog went into the closet and uh, and then it
was so upset that his heart stopped done.
Speaker 9 (17:24):
I think it was the other way around.
Speaker 10 (17:25):
I think Geene had Good died, yeah, and then I
think she was so upset, yes, that she took some pills.
And I think the dog was locked in a crate,
not the closet, and they couldn't escape and died of starvation.
Speaker 8 (17:39):
WHOA, I know there.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Was another dog that was there was one dog outside,
one dog inside that survived, and then there was one
that was I read closet. But maybe it was great, okay,
survival dog. I think probably the starvation thing. I mean,
if the dog was locked in there for ten days,
it makes sense, right. So I think we're going to
find out the dog died a pretty horrific way.
Speaker 10 (17:58):
Yeah, I think so. But that's what I think happened.
I think she was so distraught. I mean they were
married for thirty years, and maybe she just didn't you know,
I don't know.
Speaker 9 (18:07):
A lot of speculation happening here.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
A lot of speculation. We won't know the answer until
they tell us. But let's speculate a it.
Speaker 10 (18:14):
But to be fair, that's also fair a little bit.
What the police do too. They kind of speculate and
piece things together with you.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
And then they rule out there, they rule out their
we're just helping.
Speaker 9 (18:25):
We're just helping them alone.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Yeah, exactly what we're doing. You're welcome, No New Mexico Police.
You listen to the show, but I haven't heard you
say you're welcome. You're you don't have the part to
not say you're welcome.
Speaker 9 (18:39):
You need to say thank you, to be grateful, you.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Need to say thank you. Wear a suit? Would you believe?
Conspiracy theories abound? That is next.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Chris Merril kf I AM six forty. We're live everywhere

You're listening to kfi AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Chris Merril, KFI AM six forty more Stimulate talk.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
Heather, Any updates on any of the people that we.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Want to know, the big the big categories for the Oscars, actor, director, actress, picture.
Haven't gotten any of that, right, We got the supporting
actor Kieran Culkin, supporting actress Zoe Saldana.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
All right, very good, thank you so much. Appreciate that.
Oh good news. Wolf Blitzer was wrong when he said.
Speaker 16 (19:27):
For those of you just joining us, we are all
going to die.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Nope, crisis averted. Surely you heard the news earlier.
Speaker 17 (19:35):
This week that scientists redid their math. You know that
large building size asteroid. Scientists kept increasing the chances that
it will hit Earth in seven years. Turns out it's
probably not going to do so.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
After all.
Speaker 17 (19:47):
When scientists first identified asteroid twenty twenty four y are four,
they said there was about a two percent chance it
could hit the Earth in twenty thirty two, and it
kept inching up bit by bit to about three percent.
But now, after months of observ scientists have lowered the
chances to point zero zero two seven percent, so not likely.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
NASA does say there's still a decent chance it could
hit the moon. Those odds also expected to drop a
good rap.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Okay, here's here's my hot take on this. First of all,
I know what happened with the whole math thing. They
had to wait for a few more data points so
that they coul get the trajectory. Part of this had
to do with it being behind the moon and hard
to see and in order to get the info.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
Blah blah blah. Okay, got it.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
So they do their maths and they say, probably not
going to hit us, but it could still hit the moon.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Is it any Is it just my anxiety?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
I have this anxiety thing, right, I get worried about
dumb stuff all the time. Is it my anxiety that
the idea that this asteroid could hit the moon makes
me feel worse? Because when they were projecting that it
could hit the Earth, they were saying it would hit
in the Southern Hemisphere, and I thought.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
I'm good.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
I know it shows an incredible lack of empathy for
people I don't know, strangers elsewhere. I know, I get that,
and I would hate to see that happen. But let's
also face it, southern hemisphere has a lot of water, right.
They have an extra ocean in the Southern hemisphere. They're
the Indian Ocean in the Southern hemisphere, and they got
the South Atlantic, South Pacific and everything else.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
So here's where I get a little worried.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
I'm no astrophysicists, thank god, but I have played pool before,
and I know that you use the cube ball to
hit the other balls, which could then carrm. If this
thing hits the Moon, is it just gonna hit the
Moon and go and just add another crater to the Moon.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Maybe? I mean I've seen pictures of the moon. Maybe
just hits the Moon just that's it?
Speaker 5 (21:52):
Cool?
Speaker 11 (21:53):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Neat? I mean, we'll have time to put cameras up
to watch it happen. Could be.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
But is it possible it hits the Moon and then
banks and now all of a sudden we're screwed again?
Speaker 3 (22:05):
Am I so crazy for thinking this?
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I mean, if it's a direct hit on the dark
side of the moon, cool, But if it's not, are
we just setting ourselves.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
Up for problems?
Speaker 2 (22:15):
And if this thing is so massive and the Moon is,
you know, one sixth our size, is it massive enough
to alter the trajectory of the Moon, the orbit of
the Moon, because that would be very bad for us
as well. We kind of rely on the Moon's gravity
for a lot of what we do here on Earth,
like everything the tides, the ocean currents. With the currents,
(22:40):
we get the jet streams. With the jet stream we
get our weather. I mean, we're talking mass hysteria, cats
and dogs living in harmony. It's gonna be absolute terror
but again, I just worry about dumb stuff. I have
no idea. I understand I could just bring this, but
do I know. I just lie awake at night thinking
about this rather than just easing my own fears by
(23:01):
reading about it.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Because here's what I found out about the Internet. It sucks.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
And when you read the Internet, that's when you find
out that your common cold is probably proanchial cancer of
some sort. So when I go to the Internet and
I say, can an asteroid cream off the moon and
then hit the Earth? The Internet will say yes, and
you're probably gonna die. Or if I say, well, alter
the trajectory of the moon, and it will say yes,
(23:26):
even a small alteration of the trajectory of the moon,
and all of humankind will cease to exist, but it
will take a long time and be a miserable death.
That's what I find when I read the Internet. This
is why my wife shuts the Internet off as soon
as I'm off the air. She's like, that's it. You
read enough news today, You're done.
Speaker 8 (23:46):
You make a lot of sense.
Speaker 7 (23:48):
You ask a lot of questions in that little rant.
Speaker 8 (23:50):
Yes, yes, you are creepy.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
I prefer call it thinking aloud, not ranting, but go.
Speaker 8 (23:55):
On, Okay, yes, you asked if you were crazy.
Speaker 7 (23:58):
The answers yes to that, Yes, But honestly, your theory
does make a little bit of sense. And now I
have to wonder am I crazy like Chris Merrill because
it sounds pretty logical to me honestly.
Speaker 8 (24:09):
Yep, yeah, see yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
What what we thought was gonna maybe just land harmlessly
on a taco bell target in the middle of the
Indian Ocean is now going to bounce and it's gonna
take out Orange County.
Speaker 8 (24:27):
Oh not the OC.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Yep, you can take out the oce.
Speaker 8 (24:30):
We need the OC.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
That's it. You're gonna take out the OC, oh man, and.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Then we're gonna be able to say this was a
plan by Newsom and the California Democrats to take out
Orange County.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
I'm not not even stretching this so much.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
From a recent deadly flooding in Kentucky to the north
to the Florida and North Carolina monster hurricanes, Americans are
amplified increasingly conspiratorial explanations for extreme weather events, blaming manufactured
clouds for blocking sunlight for the devastation.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
You've got people like Marjorie.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Taylor Green who says that the Democrats are controlling the weather.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
Yep So.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
In Kentucky, Republican John Hodgson said that he introduced a
bill to prevent scientific experiments in the atmosphere because his constituents, quote,
do not want to allow any government attempts to modify
the solar radiation or weather. So that we've had a
(25:32):
lot of catastrophes. You had hurricanes, you had flooding in
North Carolina, there was an earthquake this week in Midland, Texas.
Obviously fires here, and I think it's safe to say
that certainly has nothing to do with the climate changing
that as we all know, as a hoax or conspiracy,
a scam, but it is probably because you've got a
(25:56):
fleet of scientists who have yet to be uncovered by DOGE,
who are controlling natural disasters for the benefit of Joseph
Robinette Biden fair.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Indisputable.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Iowa House subcommittee hearing on a bill this week to
ban geo engineering, also known as chim trails. So twenty
three Republicans in Iowa backing that bill to ban chemtrails.
Speaker 3 (26:30):
All right.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Another says they are seeing massive next red frequencies going
off in Florida looks like it originates from an air
Force base. The supposition, of course, is that the government
is setting off weather modification by using geo engineering aka chemtrails.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Yeah, there we go.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Florida's editor wants to ban weather modification that passed out
of Committee sixty three, saying it's an important issue, which
is air quality. It can obviously have disastrous effects on humans.
That's been documented. He says, it is happening, and obviously
(27:21):
we are certainly not going to assume that there is
anything else that could be potentially responsible for an increase
in fluctuations in the weather or additional natural disasters. Nothing
else could be the root of those causes. Is doctor
Wendy coming in? Is she ready? We're gonna talk with
doctor Wendy Wallah. I'm gonna get by free five minutes
(27:42):
of therapy. Hopefully it's something you wanted to talk about too.
In fact, I'm not the only one trying to get
a little extra therapy.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
The new wedding trend, that is.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
What we've all been saying you should be doing for
a long time, but nobody wants to because we're afraid
of what the counselor might say.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
That is next. Chris Merril K six forty. We live

Speaker 1 (28:02):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand a Chris.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Merril KFI AM six forty more stimulating talk on demand
anytime the iHeart Ready app. Broll Love you, buddy. It's
been great hanging out once again. I only only wish
I could get to spend more time with you throughout
the week.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Instead, we'll just have to continue our romance.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Through Instagram, which I find is how a lot of
guys communicate nowadays. We just sent Instagram videos back and
forth telling the other one they're they're weak, sissy's. I
don't know what that is. It's just how we communicate.
And then, Kayla, you were on it today. I'm gonna
give you credit. You were on it today.
Speaker 8 (28:44):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Yeah. Generally speaking, you came in, you came in hot.
I like that.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Well done, Well done, Heather Brooker. You know how excited
I am that here.
Speaker 9 (28:54):
I know, I'm so excited to be back.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
All right, Well, I hope that you're here more often too.
This is the Red Doctor. Wendy Walsh.
Speaker 12 (29:02):
Hey, Hey, Hey, of course Heather's going to be here forever.
Did you see the giant sign out of the hallway
welcome back Heather. It had balloons and flowers and candles.
They can't spend that budget and not have her stay around.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Yeah, you make a good point. That is awkward. That
is awkward to say. Guys, remember when we welcome Heather back,
we're letting her go.
Speaker 12 (29:29):
Actually, I did notice it was done kind of in
whiteboard marker her name.
Speaker 8 (29:32):
Maybe you could just.
Speaker 9 (29:33):
Just wipe it out.
Speaker 10 (29:35):
Parton and I keep saying, fool me once, shame on you. Yeah,
it's on me.
Speaker 9 (29:42):
You I get it.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
Uh, doctor Wendey, I wanted to ask you. I had
a couple of stories and I keep my out for
these all week. Once is that married men are finally
doing more housework, not enough.
Speaker 3 (29:53):
Yeah, that's more.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Well, and they're saying that it's sort of, uh, we
still have gender rules and what the housework is, so
men might do some more dishes, but women are still
doing more of the cleaning, the vacuuming, the laundry kind
of stuff. Child and a lot of that, they said,
goes back to World War Two, where women were entering
the workforce to pay the bills while husbands were off fighting,
(30:17):
but we still fell back into the same gender roles
when it was, you know, the male dominated male brings
in the paycheck, women raises the kids and keeps the house,
and it was sort of like that was a signed.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
How far back in history does that go? All the
way back in history? Has it always been?
Speaker 11 (30:32):
Like?
Speaker 12 (30:32):
No, it's the birth of capitalism, really, and the birth
of the industrial age, So labor if you've ever spent
any time living in a rural area, and anybody who's
listening who lives in a rural area certainly knows that
the division of roles is like, whatever needs to be
done on the farm gets done whoever's there, Right, there's
(30:54):
actually less hard delineation. What happens when we started to
become urban and the industrial revolution came is that men
literally left the homestead. They had to go to work
somewhere else, and this workplace was very male ordered, and
that's when women were left to freaking do it all right,
(31:15):
So that's the beginning of it, and it's slowly the
pendulum swinging back. I'm happy to tell you that I
married the best guy in the world who cleans constantly
and loves to fold laundry, doesn't let me do it
because I do it wrong, doesn't let me do dishes
because I do it wrong.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
Yep.
Speaker 9 (31:33):
So I'm really lucky.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
Hey, I'm glad you brought that out. How do you
deal with that?
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Because my wife gets really upset when I say you're
doing it wrong. Now, part of that is obviously the
way I'm delivering that message.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
I get that. So she says, well, we've.
Speaker 9 (31:47):
Been sitting down and have your wine.
Speaker 8 (31:48):
I got this.
Speaker 12 (31:50):
But when I do get up and put impose myself
and start washing things, He's like, no, no, no, no, no, really,
I like to do it my way.
Speaker 8 (31:57):
Sit down.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
See that's good, that's smart.
Speaker 7 (32:01):
I just saw Jleo in the in the break rum
and I saw him picking up a basketball and I'm like, oh,
you're gonna go shoot some hoops. And he started organizing
the basketballs in the He was clean cleaning the kitchen
area conference room. Even when he's here, he cleans and tidies.
We could call it OCD, but we don't diagnose these
things when they're functional.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
Is there ever a time that you think you know,
I'm not doing it?
Speaker 2 (32:24):
Because my wife, again, she gets she's kind of a
control freak, and she gets very possessive. So they always
talk about how one person loads the dishwasher like they
are setting up the space shuttle, and the other one
like they're a rabid raccoon on cocaine. And so I'm
the one that has an order to everything. She's the
one that just tosses everything in, and this is it,
(32:44):
and I just I just rearrange it, and I go,
you know what, the dishes are going to come clean
if we do it my way, they're not gonna get
us clean. If she's got you know, she'll nestle bowls
together and spoons together.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
And it makes me crazy. Uh, And I just do it.
I don't even correct.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Here, I just do it. And then she gets mad
at me for doing it. Oh, she gets mad for
refolding my t shirts because she does it wrong.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
I don't say anything. I just redo it right.
Speaker 12 (33:05):
So I always say whose problem is?
Speaker 9 (33:07):
Who's right?
Speaker 12 (33:09):
So is her messy dishwasher her problem? No, for some reason,
it's yours.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
So that is when I eat off dirty dishes, because
she also doesn't make sure that they're cleaning.
Speaker 3 (33:16):
She takes them out.
Speaker 12 (33:18):
So anyway, I think you have a right to fix it.
If you want to. But at the same time, you
should understand that she does feel a little insulted and
has feelings, so you have to compensate by giving her
extra compliments and love and saying that.
Speaker 2 (33:34):
I'm doing housework, and now I have to give her
extra compliments to do the housework.
Speaker 12 (33:38):
Because you're doing it in a critical way.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Now, this is crap. This is absolute crap. You know what.
This is why men go to work.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
That's exactly because we tried to help and we were
told we were doing it wrong.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
But we know we're.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Doing it right because we have logical brains and we
know how it gets done right.
Speaker 3 (33:57):
And man, agree with me right now, just to let
you know.
Speaker 12 (34:00):
I don't think we can lump all men into one category.
Chris marril, I agree with me right now.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
That's the way it works. Doctor Wendy, I love talking
to you. Have a wonderful show. I hope to learn
as much over the course of the next three hours
as I have in the last five minutes.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
You are absolutely brilliant. I can't wait.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Thank you all right, doctor Wendy Walsh, Doctor Wendy after
Dark is next until next weekend. Have a wonderful week
