Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Hey I'm back in town. No, I was gone, then
you were gone.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
No, the schedules just didn't match up. Couldn't have you back.
So glad it's great, wonderful one.
Speaker 4 (00:21):
Uh kayla. There's no business like show business, darn right.
There's a no from Tinseltown and beyond. I was looking
at going to see Superman.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
I was thinking about going to see Superman after the
show tonight, but I don't think I'm going to because
you know, it's too woke, so I'm.
Speaker 4 (00:41):
Not gonna do that.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
I was watching Fox News told me not to see it,
so you know, I'm not going to because I allow
them to tell me how I should think and feel,
and so I'm not going to.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Plus, I have an early morning and I didn't want
to be out too late and I'm old.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
But then I was looking at the start time, so
show gets done at seven, and I was thinking, all right,
if I could get into the theater. There's a theater
near me that has a showing at It's like an
Imax starts showing at seven forty five.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
Right, I was like, Okay, I could do that, no problem.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
But then I thought, the runtime of this movie is
two hours nine minutes?
Speaker 4 (01:18):
How many?
Speaker 3 (01:19):
How many commercials am I gonna have to sit through
before they even get to the movie.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
I mean, I was thinking, if I go and I
go watch this day.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
It's two If it starts at seven forty five and
it's two hours nine minutes, all right, it gets out
at ten, that's not too bad. I could get home,
be in bed by eleven. Okay, all right, up by
you know, I gotta get up. I try to get
up between six and six thirty every day. But I
could sleep till seven, I'd be eight hours sleep. You're right,
I'm doing this math in my head. I got I
got some some advertiser appointments I gotta go to do
(01:48):
tomorrow morning. So I got a few other things on
my gender, and I'm like, ah, right, I couldn't make it.
But then I thought, you know what if I go
there and that movie starts at seven forty five, think
are in half an hour commercials? Well, now I'm not
getting home at a little after ten. Now I'm getting
home closer to eleven. I'm not getting to sleep until midnight.
That throws off my whole bag, which throws off my
(02:08):
whole week.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
Not alone.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
AMC says they are just gonna have a ton of
ads now.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
All right, If you love going to the movie theater
like me, you might be used to sitting through those previews.
But now AMC Theaters is making it easier for customers
to know when the film actually begins. This is groundbreaking, you.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
Say, not really groundbreaking. This has been something places have
tried to do in the past.
Speaker 6 (02:30):
Take a look at that website.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
A new notice appears when purchasing tickets, warning that quote
movie star twenty five to thirty minutes after showtime.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Ugh, twenty five to thirty minutes, that's how many trailers
you're gonna watch, and then ads for Coca Cola twenty
to thirty minutes. And the thinking is, in many places
you can buy your tickets online, then reserve your seat.
But then if you get there, let's say the movie
starts again. Let's say it's seven forty five like the
(03:02):
start time the IMAXUS. You near me, Okay, so I
don't want to sit through thirty minutes of commercials. One,
if you're an advertiser, why am I paying to not
have people watch my message? That's one which is the
big reason this isn't gonna work. But then two, from
a consumer standpoint, somebody's.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Gonna take my seat.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
I know I paid for it, right, I know I've
got a reserve, But I'm gonna walk into a dark
theater that's telling me to turn off my cell phone
and playing all that snazzy before the movie magic stuff starts.
I'm gonna walk in and I'm gonna have what cut
across an aisle full of people?
Speaker 4 (03:43):
So I go, I think you're in my seat? No?
Speaker 3 (03:47):
No, maybe just don't put in thirty minutes of advertising first.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
This comes as the theater chain has also started playing
more pre show advertisements. To break down this, we're joined
by Brett Lang. He's the executive editor at Variety, joining
us here in New York City. What do you make
of this? You know, most people are used to the
movie starting a bit after the listed time begins. But
if AMC makes this announcement, what stops you and me
(04:13):
from showing up twenty five to thirty minutes later?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Yeah? I just said that.
Speaker 5 (04:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (04:17):
I mean, honestly, I don't even understand what the point
is for adverative misers. Why would you want people to
be discouraged from coming to see your ad.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
There, that's what I just said. It's like, I'm brilliant.
Speaker 7 (04:27):
They're paying to get it in front of a number
of eyeballs. So I don't really understand. And I mean
I get why AMC.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
This is part of the reason. Okay, you know AMC.
They want to make more money. Blah blah blah what
he says. But then I was looking at this from Variety.
More than fifty percent of exhibition executives pulled in a
new survey believe that the traditional cinema experience has less
than twenty years remaining as a biable business model.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
When asked how long do you expect the traditional cinema
experience to remain a viable business model, more than half
the exhibition executives said that they believe it has fewer
than twenty years. Some said fewer than five years, five
to ten or ten to twenty.
Speaker 6 (05:16):
I was about to say I'm on that side. Five Yeah,
for sure.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
What is that going to do to content creators? Are
we gonna be stuck with nothing but YouTube crap? Because
if your paramount, how much money are you going to
put into making feature length films? If you're not going
to recoup at the box office, or how much how
much are you gonna start charging for your streaming service
(05:40):
in order to cover the cost of making feature length films,
and then you know, paying all the staff, not just
the actors and the directors, not just craft services, but
everybody that works at Paramount Studios. There's a lot of
money that goes into that, right, So what does that
business model look like for the content creators? Am I
(06:01):
just gonna be left with a bunch of people with
their their cameras set up in their living rooms making youtubes?
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Well?
Speaker 6 (06:06):
No, you you almost bought one of those gigantic TVs
that takes up the whole wall.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Yes, I recall, yes, I almost.
Speaker 6 (06:16):
Did, so you would never leave the house.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Okay, so that's interesting you say that too, because Axios
had a story. More people are going to movie theaters
in their homes. Project request for home theater installations up
five hundred and sixty two percent last year. Home owners
are splurging on features that rival their local cinema. So
it could be that massive high depth TV, it could
(06:43):
be custom snack stations, the giant surround sound systems, theater
seating and have you noticed too that the theaters are
now they're creating living room seating, which is so fun
because some people are trying to create like a theater
seating in their homes, but the movie theater is trying
(07:05):
to create a home seating in their theaters. Theater chains
have struggled rebound from the pandemic despite investing in new
projector seats, bars, and more. Most suburban megaplexes feel like
relics of a bygone era that according to Danny McBride,
who you know, movie rooms aren't the only home entertainment
space is making a comeback. There's also lego rooms, billiard rooms,
(07:27):
video game rooms. Okay, there's a lot of people with
way too much money. Americans have spent an estimated six
hundred billion dollars last year and remodeling far above pre
pandemic levels. Well, yeah, we're spending money on remodel. We
can't afford to buy a house, so we're making the
house we have the best we can.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
So why am I going out?
Speaker 3 (07:47):
I love the theater experience, don't get me wrong, but
I also am lazy and I don't like people. So
while I love sitting in the theater and watching cinema
on the screen as it was meant to be viewed,
all that stuff.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
There are too many things in the way.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
If you're in sales, they have what they call lubricating
the sale, make it as easy as possible for the
customer to give you their money. Right now, I have
to deal with traffic. I gotta I gotta buy my
ticket online. If I want to save two dollars, then
I go and I have to kick somebody out of
my seat for the ticket that.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
I bought online.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
I'm overpaying for for concessions, and it's not like overpaying
has gotten better. Now they're trying to hit me with
special collector popcorn bags that cost even more. And then
when I get there, I have to sit through twenty
five to thirty minutes of commercials. Why My wife just
sent me a message and she said, hey, Sinners is
(08:42):
on HBO now HBO Max used to be Max, used
to be HBO, then it was HBO Max, that it
was Max. Now with HBO Maxkin, she says, hey, Sinners
is on HBO Max. You should watch it. So I'm
not going to see Superman tonight, but I'm probably gonna
sit down and watch Sinners, which Cayle told me was
an incredible movie. So, I mean, have the theaters kind
(09:06):
of done this to themselves? And then the more money
they're losing, the more desperate they become, the more desperate
they become, the worst it gets. It's a vicious cycle, man,
vicious all the way around. Meanwhile, we'll continue. There's no
business like good call, Kayla, Well done business show business great.
(09:28):
With a little bit of news from the small screen.
That is next, Chris Merril KFI AM six forty live
everywhere on the iHeart Radio App.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
You're listening to kfi AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 3 (09:39):
Hey, Chris Merril, I AM six forty more stimulating talk
on demand anytime of the iHeart Radio App. We asked
the question on the talk back have you noticed anything
getting more expensive in light of the tariffs? I always
love it when you're listening on the iHeartRadio app and
you just click on that little talk back button and
let us know what you think. And again, are you
noticing anything going up in price?
Speaker 8 (09:57):
Way too early to ask about terrors. It's gonna be
a couple of months before they hit.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
I don't know, man, I.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Mean, the first ones went into effect in April, and
we just haven't seen inflation.
Speaker 8 (10:07):
I've noticed some things going up. I'm gonna paid seven
dollars for a jar mayonnaise.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
That's a fancy mayonnaise.
Speaker 8 (10:16):
Coffee's certainly more expensive. But how about this. When you
get to Amazon and you get to the place order page,
just shut it off. Okay, don't buy the plastic crap.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
You can buy it all this time.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Oh I'm not just buying plastic crap. I'm buying all
kinds of like metal crap too.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
One of the things. And I'll get back to show
business in a minute. But one of the things that
I think this administration has to be careful of is that,
in the same way that anytime something went wrong after
the pandemic, we started seeing inflation, everybody blamed Biden, right,
So egg prices went through the roof, and they were like,
this is because of Biden and the supply chain, and
(11:03):
the inflation is because of the bailouts, and so you know,
everything went back to Biden.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
But price of eggs went up nationwide. We're up a
little bit more here.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
And I understand you you may have issues with regulations
here in California, but they went up nationwide, and they
went up because largely the bird flu was wiping out
millions and millions and millions of birds, right, so it
was bird Biden didn't give them the bird flu, but
Biden got blamed for the price of eggs. So I
think Trump has to be a little bit careful with
that because we have some other things that are running
(11:37):
into some supply chain issues that have nothing to do
with tariffs.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
Namely, have you seen the price of beef?
Speaker 3 (11:48):
I mean, Hamburger is ridiculously expensive right now, and they
were trying to buy steak. If you were buying food
for or fourth of July, it was crazy expensive when
you wanted to get beef. It's what's for dinner, all right.
So now I think he has to be a little
bit careful that he doesn't run into He just gets
blamed for everything. I didn't want it another excuse to
(12:08):
play that song. If I'm being honest, all right, there's
no business like show business here, she is, all right.
News of note from Tinseltown and beyond. I was talking
about Superman before. I wanted to go see Superman, but
then I decided against it because it's late and I'm old,
and also Fox News because I'm old and white told
(12:30):
me not to go see it.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
It's too woke. Inside Edition was talking about Wokeman.
Speaker 9 (12:36):
The New Superman movie soars into theaters, and the reviews
are glowing. A charming take on the Superman myth, says
The New York Times. On Rotten Tomatoes, it's getting an
impressive eighty five percent score.
Speaker 10 (12:51):
I thought this movie was excellent. It's really fun. I
feel like it's a fun modern Superman.
Speaker 9 (12:56):
There has been some criticism from the right that the
movie was too quote unquote woke because Superman is presented
as an immigrant.
Speaker 10 (13:05):
I feel like with Hollywood, there's always a lot of
buzz before people see the film. After seeing the film,
I feel like they really just focused on entertaining audiences
of all ages.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
I mean, where's the line Superman is an immigrant? Am
I wrong? He wasn't born here?
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Uh, he just crashed down and then what went to
American schools, got a degree from an American college, play
paid paid the resident tuition. Right, He's basically dhaka and
he is literally an alien.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
So yeah, where's the lie?
Speaker 9 (13:44):
ABC News reporter Will Reeve.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
Like, oh no, you can't say he's lies. True Justice
in the American way. That's that's what he means.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Okay, that doesn't stop anybody from getting deported. Now, so
where's the lie?
Speaker 9 (13:54):
ABC News reporter Will Reeve, a son of the first
big screen Superman, Christopher Reeve, down with the new Superman
actor David korn Sweat.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
Yeah, Koran Sweat is a rough name, but I heard
he's really good.
Speaker 9 (14:08):
Why do you think people have such passion for and
strong opinions about Superman as a character.
Speaker 7 (14:16):
Well, first, I think a lot of it is is
because of your dad. I mean, it's so rare that
you have a character so effectively portrayed on screen.
Speaker 9 (14:24):
Crypto, Superman's dog, Crypto is the scene stealer.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
I love that we have the super dog now Crypto. O.
Oh stop stop.
Speaker 9 (14:32):
There was even an All Dogs Welcome premiere in Los Angeles.
Speaker 4 (14:36):
Oh, it's just a much. People at the theater with
their dogs. Love that, Love that all right, Superman. They're
expecting two hundred and seventeen million dollars opening weekend.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
I think doesn't that make it the best? May wrong
on this guys? Isn't that the best opening weekend of
the year? Rageta, do you have any idea? I think
it is.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Say that again, is two.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
Hundred and seventeen million opening weekend for Superman? Is that
biggest opening of the year?
Speaker 11 (15:06):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (15:07):
I think that said it was maybe the second.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Because oh is it okay?
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Third biggest opening, third of the year.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
What was biggest? What was oh? Okay? All right?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Kids movies?
Speaker 4 (15:26):
Yeah, kids movies. Always forget about the kids movies. They
go through the roof.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
You know.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
People love, Yeah, they love take their ratty kids to
the movies. Kick my seat while I'm sitting there, knock
it off, ratty little snot. I saw that uh Lelo
and Stitch is going to be up over a billion
dollars worldwide, So that's pretty great.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Yeah, that's wild.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
Yeah, I'd love to see that.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
So we keep hearing about how, you know, Hollywood is
suffering and now California is talking.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
You know, we've got the new.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
New tax incentives to try to bring business back and
tack credits or whatever. And then you get a movie
that does a billion dollars worldwide. So gives me a
little bit of hope, like to see that. I don't know, Kayla,
do you want to talk about Diddy? I really don't
want to talk Diddy. I'd just like to move on,
you know.
Speaker 11 (16:15):
Yeah, I think I think we're done with Diddy.
Speaker 6 (16:18):
Did he's done?
Speaker 11 (16:18):
We're down with Diddy?
Speaker 4 (16:19):
All right?
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Kayla just sent me a note and we have talkbacks
about butt plugs, So all right, that'll be fun. We'll
talk butt plugs. I have not listened to these yet.
I can't wait next. Chris Merril KFI AM six forty
live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
How you cant even mean? My friends?
Speaker 3 (16:40):
Chris Merril KFI AM six forty on demand anytime in
the iHeart Radio app. The Great Doctor Wendy Walsh and
Doctor Wendy after Dark, starting at seven o'clock. We'll talk
with Doctor Wendy here. Yeah, about fifteen minutes or so,
looking forward to the doctor coming in. We'll also discuss
your fat kids. In just a moment. We asked to
talk back question today. If you're on the app, you
(17:00):
can just hit that talk back button. Have you noticed
anything more getting more expensive in light of the tariffs.
In fact, even if you're not listening online, you still
open the app and then you can just leave us
the message. Have you noticed anything getting more expensive in
light of the tariff announcements. Data shows that inflation is
not going up, although there are some anecdotal stories of
things getting more expensive, and there are concerns over like
(17:24):
the latest copper tariffs supposed to go into effects of
fifty percent tariff and that could really increase the price
of home.
Speaker 4 (17:33):
Building, which is.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Which you gonna hurt if you're plumbing and you're electrical
all of a sudden goes way up and costs and
we are already at a housing shortage and we're trying
to rebuild homes that were devastated in the fires, and
suddenly you have additional costs because of the tariffs. It
could sting, right, But the anecdotally have you seen anything
going up? And for most of us, I would say
that most people that have contacted us have said, I
(17:57):
haven't noticed anything specific to the terraf still feeling inflation
that's been around for the last four or five years.
I think we all are not anything specific to the
tariffs that you can identify. Some people are saying coffee
is getting more expensive, or actually seeing some other things
coming down, like eggs are coming down, and I'm with you,
(18:18):
but a lot of people said yet, right, I haven't
seen anything yet.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
And actually that's what Wall Street is saying too.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
It's like, Okay, things are not getting bad yet, but
as we go longer and longer, at some point past
prices are going to be passed on. That is, if
the tariffs go into effect. If they go into effect
and stay in effect, that's when we're gonna start feeling things.
Question is this is going to happen before Christmas or
the holiday season, because everybody gives gifts during the end
(18:45):
of your holiday season, regardless of religion. Right, So are
we going to start feeling effects by then? It's a
good question. Your feedback from the talkback button on the
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
Have you seen any effect the tariffs?
Speaker 12 (19:01):
Chris Merril. I've noticed that there's been quite the increase
on sexual lubricants. I use that quite frequently. I know
that the terrif coun if usual. Today I paid about
seven bus for a bottle of Loop. Yesterday I paid
twenty two. So what terriffs are growing up on?
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Loub Loop's going up three times, dude, he was Crisco.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
Threefold y.
Speaker 12 (19:33):
Also, I forgot to tell you butt plugs they've gone up.
Speaker 6 (19:37):
Butt plugs?
Speaker 12 (19:38):
Yeah, tariffs con from butt plugs?
Speaker 4 (19:41):
Are those coming from China?
Speaker 7 (19:45):
Rool?
Speaker 4 (19:46):
Just take a look at the bottom.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Just tell me on yours that just on that jeweled
midazzled part of yours, does it say made in China?
Speaker 5 (19:52):
On there?
Speaker 6 (19:52):
I prefer American maid myself from a fair patriot.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Part of the the questions I have for this gentleman
is like, how how many do you go through that
you notice the price? I understand Loube is a consumable,
but I would think with the plugs that that is
something that well, don't answer that phone. I know that
I'm looking over in Raoul's studio and there's still a
light going off. That is the the boss is calling,
(20:16):
like just ignore.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
That for now. Uh, how do you pay attention to that?
That price? You would think that would be something that.
Speaker 6 (20:25):
Hey, do you think diddyo will get back the baby oil?
Speaker 2 (20:29):
I was just gonna mention that a Diddy level amount.
Oh that Jesus Scott, that's good.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
I wonder if that's gone up? Three four? Hang on.
I found this.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
I was listening to Rich on Tech and he was
giving advice during Prime Day about Amazon and how you
can kind of follow it. So okay, Amazon Basics baby Oil,
if you add to cart, I'm doing this now add
to cart and then you can no not subscribe and
(21:03):
save shot by items. He was telling me that there's
like a button that shows that you can keep track
of the price, and I would think that we could
do that now I'm not seeing the button right now. Yeah,
he was saying that there was a button that you
could just click on it and see the price. I don't know,
three seventy one for a bottle of baby oil. That
seems a lot cheaper than whatever. Yeah, what happens that
(21:27):
the didty stuff? Are there unopened bottles that we could
sell on or that he I don't know, donate to
goodwill or something. I mean, did he figure out the hack?
Don't buy it at the why the brand name stuff?
Speaker 4 (21:39):
At the other things?
Speaker 3 (21:41):
Speaking of health, American kids have become increasingly unhealthy over
nearly two decades. Anybody surprised by that children are getting
fatter and unhealthier over the last seventeen years. Kids today
are more likely to have obesity, chronic disease, mental health
problems like depression. Does this come as a surprise to anyone?
(22:03):
Anyone at all, anybody, No, I didn't think so. Also,
a new federal estimate shows arise in pre diabetes among
American adolescents, finding that is concerning about the health of
US children. Twenty twenty three, nearly one in three US
This is the most recent data. Twenty twenty three, nearly
(22:24):
one in three US youngsters between twelve and seventeen had
pre diabetes, far higher than the previous previous estimate of
the condition about one in five kids. Now, if I
had told you that twenty percent of kids are pre diabetic,
they would have gone, oh my goodness.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
But now it's one in three. That was the third guess.
The question is why.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
One's the what's the accuracy of information is being released?
Speaker 4 (22:50):
Right?
Speaker 3 (22:50):
That's a question that we I think it's fair to ask,
what are the surveys?
Speaker 4 (22:54):
How accurate are they? Two? Does this have to do
with inactivity? Does this have to do with lifestyle?
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Or does this have to do with the food that
the kids are getting, or maybe a combination of all
of the above. But if we're talking about kids that
are and a lot of the time the pre diabetes
is because you've got weight issues. I know it's blood sugar,
but oftentimes you're talking about weight issues. And if that's
the case, are we seeing this in large part because
kids don't have access to decent food or the food
(23:24):
that they're getting at school is ultra processed. And I
hate to sound all hippie dippy here, but I'm not
a big fan of the ultra processed foods. I'm fine
with the fertilizers and stuff like that because I haven't
seen anything that's showing like, oh, you've got corn that
was grown with fertilizer, that's bad for you. Like, I'm
not so much into that. But there is a difference
(23:47):
between having corn on your plate and having you know,
corn chips, right, different ballgame. So is it because kids
have access to crap food fo and even a decent
food that they have is still ultra processed, high preservatives
that kind of thing. Or is it in large part
(24:07):
because kids aren't doing things like riding their bikes as
much as they used to. Study out this week shows
that the number of kids between twelve and seventeen that
ride their bikes on a regular basis has drop from
about twenty two million to eleven million. So are they
just not getting as much exercise and what's the reason
(24:29):
for that? Is it because they have computer games where
they don't have to ride their bike to their friend's
house to hang out anymore. Now they can just put
on their headphones and book connected they're talking to their friends.
Is it because parents are worried about their kids going
out at night?
Speaker 4 (24:42):
Right?
Speaker 3 (24:43):
So are there are the kids not getting as much exercise?
Is it that they have worse food? What is causing
all the kids to become pre diabetic and obesity to
go up? Although I did see this, not type two diabetes,
(25:03):
but type one. A lot of kids have never had
a lot of kids, A lot of kids have never
had toys. If they have a disability, you know, they
haven't been able to relate to any other toys. Gi
Joe was a model of perfection for a fat kid
like me, and there were no fat Gi Joe's. Well,
I ended up with the garbage pail kids. He man
(25:25):
certainly didn't look like me. Tell you that. But now
for kids who have diabetes, good news.
Speaker 8 (25:32):
But tell's latest of Barbie Doll raising awareness about a
disease that affects some millions of adults and hundreds of
thousands of US children.
Speaker 13 (25:40):
It is the first Barbie with type one diabetes. The
dollmaker worked with research group break Through t one D
to design the doll for accessories including an insulin pump,
a gluecose monitor, and snacks to help her control her
blood sugar levels snacks. Type one diabetes is an autoimmune
disease that prevents the pancreas from making in.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Gonna be great If Barbie came with little needles, well,
you can learn how to give Barbie her insulin shots.
Speaker 4 (26:08):
Hey, well, I mean the needles sharp.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
The great Doctor Wendy Walsh and Doctor Wendy after Dark
starts at seven o'clock. We'll check with her and what
she has to offer, as well as how she feels
about what one relationship coach is saying, the real reason is.
Speaker 4 (26:25):
That women are cheating on men. You may not like
this answer.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
That is next Chris Merrill, I AM six forty relive
everywhere in the iHeartRadio Apple.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
Always great to hang out, love doing it.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
Can't wait till we get to again next weekend. Oh,
it's the best part of the week. That's my week
off on the right foot. We asked the question on
our talkback, have you noticed anything getting more expensive.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
In light of the tariffs? Always looking for your feedback.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Diamond Bar, California.
Speaker 14 (27:02):
I came and talked, Hey, I noticed gas was lower.
It was like three ninety something under four dollars. That's great.
That's the only thing I've noticed. And I noticed eggs
aren't that expensive anymore. So that's all I can contribute
to your conversation.
Speaker 6 (27:14):
All right, thanks by thank you appreciate that.
Speaker 4 (27:18):
Yeah, you're right, I did see gas under four dollars.
Oh that's nice. I sure like that. I'm tired of
paying some dag on much. In fact, I was talking
to Kala. She was over in.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
Phoenix area, and she was telling me that she saw
gas over there was like three and a quarter, which
really usually Arizona is about a dollar less than us.
So I mean, if we're only you know, somebody was
telling me they saw it at three seventy four.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
I haven't seen that.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
But if you're seeing gas is only seventy five cents
more than the Arizona, which is you know, usually wear
a dollar more, that's pretty good. I like that, pretty great. So, yeah,
happy to see that. We'll see what happens with the
whole inflation index. And we start getting those numbers, then
we're gonna get we're getting that what second quarter results
(28:13):
or whatever from companies their reports are set to come in.
Speaker 4 (28:16):
We'll find out. Maybe next week we'll talk more about
the economy and how things are going. Hopefully they continue
to hang on and they continue to be really great,
and hopefully we have more deals with other countries. That'd
be splendid. Who wouldn't love that?
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Meanwhile, I was reading about well.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Be honest with you. I fell for the clickbait.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
So I was looking at a different story on the
Daily Mail, And if you haven't been to Daily Mail,
it's just it's all clickbait. They would do a really
great job of writing crap headlines. And I wanted to
get to doctor Wendy Walsh's take on this one. A
relationship coach revealing why women really cheat on men. Doctor
Wendy Sadia Kahn has over a million followers online, so
(28:56):
she must be right. She said in her podcast God
she has a podcast that men get cheated on because
they don't understand female psychology.
Speaker 4 (29:05):
Specifically, she says.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
That men who are cheated on were most likely raised
by their mothers. She says, they tend to think that
their mother's advice is key. Mothers teach you to be kind,
They teach you to listen to them. They teach you
not to talk back, not to answer back, never to
question them. They train you into becoming this really good
boy who's really obedient, and all of these things are
(29:27):
de sexualizing. All of these things are what moms want
from boys, from their sons, but it's definitely not what
women want from their partners.
Speaker 4 (29:36):
Women need men to be more.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
Assertive in their relationships rather than taking that laid back approach.
She said, we want a man that's fearless. So if
you're a man that's afraid of flying, afraid of heights,
afraid of confrontation, afraid afraid automatically, she's less attractive to you.
We like some protective jealousy to show that they care
about you. So they worry about you. So is it
my mother's fault if my wife cheats on me? That
(30:04):
seems like a stretch. No, no, not my mother's.
Speaker 11 (30:09):
No, it's not your mother's. It's doctor Wendy here.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
Yeah, we need to talk.
Speaker 11 (30:12):
I don't agree with some of this advice, Okay, just saying.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
So, do we have a reason that women cheat on men?
Speaker 11 (30:18):
Yes, I'll tell you the real truth. Women cheat on men.
Speaker 15 (30:22):
Generally because their relationship shopping, they're unhappy with their relationship men.
When men cheat, they're looking for sex. When women cheat,
they're looking for love. Okay, And so it's not like
no partner makes the other cheat. Let's be very clear
about that, okay, right, just like.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
She's shopping because I'm not jealous enough? Not wait, did something?
Speaker 3 (30:46):
No, No, my wife has not had an affair, but I
know that she's really good at hiding it anyway, good
for her. But but I mean, is it am I
not jealous enough? Could that be a reason that my
mother would be?
Speaker 15 (30:57):
Jealousy is wrong fully associated with care and love, but
it actually indicates insecurity. There are women out there and say,
oh I love it. My husband gets so jealous. He
must really love me. No, he's insecure or he's controlling.
Speaker 11 (31:13):
Where are you going?
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Who are you with? R? I agree with that.
Speaker 11 (31:16):
So, yeah, jealousy is not an indicator of love.
Speaker 4 (31:19):
I agree with that. But if she thinks it is,
does it matter what the source is?
Speaker 11 (31:25):
If she thinks what that is?
Speaker 3 (31:26):
If she thinks I'm jealous because I really love her,
and she interprets it that way. Does it really matter
if it's actually because I'm super insecure?
Speaker 15 (31:35):
Yeah, because being super insecure is not attractive. But if
I all like attractive people.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
But if I'm not jealous and she feels like then
I don't care. It feels like that backfires on me.
Speaker 15 (31:48):
No, you need to be strong, self confident, mabe, go
knock yourself out. You want to go have lunch with
a guy from work to school, I'll be right here
when you get home. And she's gonna go, oh, why
is he jealous? Oh my gosh, does it worked harder
for him? No, she can say I'm work harder for him.
Maybe he's got a side piece somewhere.
Speaker 4 (32:08):
Is it?
Speaker 3 (32:08):
Uh? If if she's relationship shopping, can that be an
indication of her own lack of self confidence?
Speaker 15 (32:15):
Well, there's all kinds of reasons why women relationship shop. Okay,
sometimes it's for their own they think it'll raise their
self esteem if they can be attractive to other people.
But often usually it's just there's something missing in the relationship,
in the marriage right there there, You know, they should
be going to a couple's therapy. Yeah, not a hotel
room with wrong with her?
Speaker 4 (32:35):
Right?
Speaker 11 (32:35):
Not what's wrong with her? That's wrong with their relationship.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
It's obviously she's looking for something that isn't there. Why
did she marry him in the first place? I keep
telling my wife, I don't know what the problem is
with you.
Speaker 11 (32:45):
Relationships are dynamic.
Speaker 15 (32:46):
You know, they're growing and shrinking, They're constantly changing at
all times both and they should and you should be
adapting to the change. You're not supposed to be the same.
So when you say why did you marry him in
the first place, well, because he was a different person.
Speaker 11 (32:58):
Then, quite literally, that would.
Speaker 4 (32:59):
Be pretty boring if it was just the same all
the time, right, yes, yeah, yes.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
And then complacency can actually lead to some of those
those times.
Speaker 15 (33:08):
We cannot let our relationships go on automatic. They have
to be you have to be constantly nurturing them. I
always use the metaphor of a relationship as a garden,
and we have to water what we want to grow,
fertilize what you want to grow, don't water the weeds,
and don't ever put on an automatic sprinkler system.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
Oh yes, let it.
Speaker 11 (33:29):
You got to nurture it all the time.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
Oh, I've been guilty of that.
Speaker 15 (33:33):
I look at my garden and I'm always like, what
do you need? If every plant, I'm like, what do
you need? We should do that with our partners. What
does my partner need?
Speaker 4 (33:39):
Right now?
Speaker 11 (33:40):
It's space.
Speaker 3 (33:41):
Haven't we all been guilty of that at some point?
I mean, isn't that part of learning? Isn't that part
of practice? Relationships?
Speaker 15 (33:45):
We're always practicing and growing. Relationships are a gymnasium for
our mind. We don't go to the gym, we fall
out of shape.
Speaker 4 (33:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
I always feel bad about the previous relationships, like when
I was younger, because I'm like, man, I was really.
Speaker 4 (33:58):
Bad at all? Are you bad at that? Realizing I
was learning? Right of course?
Speaker 15 (34:03):
And you know, I want to say this to everybody
in the world who might be listening. If you think
back and you have a memory that is associated with
a feeling of shame or embarrassment and you were young,
you need to reboot that in your head. Reframe it
as Wow, this is why I know so much now,
because I got through that.
Speaker 11 (34:22):
I'm cool.
Speaker 15 (34:23):
Because what we do is we beat ourselves up over
our past mistakes, and then other people say, well, you
should just forgive yourself. It's not even forgiving. It's like, yeah,
that was the heavy weight I had to lift to
be as strong as I am.
Speaker 11 (34:35):
Now it's cool I did it. Don't feel embarrassed. Not sure,
Oh but I do know what I'm going to talk
about tonight.
Speaker 4 (34:44):
This is what this is why I listen. I love this.
Speaker 15 (34:46):
I'm going to talk about how the Jeff Bezos Lauren
Sanchez relationship can actually teach us something about love.
Speaker 3 (34:53):
M that's my wife has said, I need to learn
something from them, right said. Stop giving your money to
Jeff Bezos.
Speaker 15 (35:05):
Start saying And also for all this talk people talk about,
is this a red flag?
Speaker 11 (35:09):
Is that a red flag? Should I get rid of
him as a red flag?
Speaker 15 (35:12):
I'm going to do a segment on are you the
red flag in your relationship?
Speaker 4 (35:16):
Oh no, we never look in the mirror?
Speaker 15 (35:19):
Come on now, and one that will be a lot
of fun since I'm not actually a sex therapist, but
I will be quoting the work of other sex therapists.
Speaker 11 (35:27):
Is vanilla sex ruining your relationship?
Speaker 4 (35:30):
I hope not.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
That's all you got, all right, doctor Wendy.
Speaker 4 (35:37):
After Dark, I love talking to you. Thank you so much.
Speaker 11 (35:40):
Great to chat with you too, Tayla.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
