WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.680 --> 00:00:03.960
This is Gary and Shannon and you're
listening to KFI A M. Six forty,

2
00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:08.039
the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app. I just

3
00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:12.119
assumed it was a fire No,
it's all the fireworks and it's there's no

4
00:00:12.279 --> 00:00:17.359
wind today, so it's just sitting
in the valleys. It smells like cold

5
00:00:17.399 --> 00:00:22.960
hot dogs and sweat and hot Yeah, it's chemicals and the fire works and

6
00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:29.440
it just feels like bay Root.
Well byte, but yeah, this was

7
00:00:29.480 --> 00:00:33.240
well, welcome to the fifth of
July Live today. We are live.

8
00:00:33.320 --> 00:00:37.200
We're like the only show ever on
the fifth right now that I've heard this

9
00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:41.320
morning, other than Heather's show that's
you know, regular programming. Yeah,

10
00:00:41.359 --> 00:00:46.439
but I guess Heather's in for Amy, right, true. But yeah,

11
00:00:46.520 --> 00:00:50.880
so I drove up from Orange.
Orange County, by the way, does

12
00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:55.320
not play when it comes to fourth
of July. It's insane talk about bay

13
00:00:55.399 --> 00:01:00.280
Root. I mean it was popping
off everywhere last night in Orange County.

14
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:03.799
Freedom, Freedom was freedom. I
was on the four five at about eight

15
00:01:03.879 --> 00:01:07.359
forty five last night driving back from
a party that I had gone to,

16
00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:11.280
and my daughter and her friend were
in the car with me, and I

17
00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:15.959
loved it. It was great because
on either side of the four or five

18
00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:22.200
there's just random, completely illegal fireworks
going off. And as you get closer

19
00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:25.159
up, like to the north end
of the valley, back you up where

20
00:01:25.239 --> 00:01:30.400
Danny Trejo punches people on the parade
route, it was insanity. Yeah,

21
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:36.319
I mean hundreds and hundreds and we're
doing seventy miles an hour on the freeway

22
00:01:36.599 --> 00:01:41.359
and you still see hundreds and hundreds
of fireworks going off. I think I

23
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:45.319
went to Orange County for the first
time in the after the pandemic, the

24
00:01:45.400 --> 00:01:49.319
year after the pandemic and saw the
display and thought it was just people that

25
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:53.680
are pissed off about all the rules
and they were just gonna live their freedom

26
00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:57.840
and their liberty and just shoot up. But it's been every year. It's

27
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:01.560
just it's great. I do enjoy
the illegal fireworks. Next hour, we'll

28
00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:06.519
talk about there was a stabbing last
night in Huntington Beach. Yeah, two

29
00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:12.159
people were killed, three others in
the hospital with non life threatening injuries.

30
00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:16.639
But we're getting very few details about
how this all went down, but we

31
00:02:16.719 --> 00:02:20.479
will tell you. We will share
what we do have coming up the next

32
00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:22.719
hour. Also, did you hear
about the Mountain Lion that was hit on

33
00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:27.039
the four of US. That was
hours before I got there. I did

34
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:29.199
mine with a coyote, not a
mountain lion. I would make I would

35
00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:31.120
cause a bigger mess. But they
said it was a mountain lion on the

36
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:37.759
four or five right through the Supulvida
Pass near the Getty Museum. Yesterday afternoon

37
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:43.560
confirmed they picked it up and there
was there was another one just the middle

38
00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:47.639
of June along the one to one
near where they're building that wildlife crossing.

39
00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:53.800
They're calling this the most important interview
of Joe Biden's life, and now they're

40
00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:58.240
going to release the whole thing tonight. It's a again, someone's listening to

41
00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:01.719
the show. We had said a
ABC would look bad, yes, if

42
00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:07.800
they recorded something and then just spilled
it out. And then also the White

43
00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:12.719
House would look bad if they allowed
ABC to do that. Now, granted

44
00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:15.800
the White House doesn't control a network
like that, the White House can make

45
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:21.560
a They could easily say to the
powers that be at ABC, hey,

46
00:03:21.560 --> 00:03:25.000
we'd love it if you would just
do a full interview. Now, the

47
00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:30.599
thing that I've seen is that they're
talking about it being a lengthy interview,

48
00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:35.840
but it might not be any longer
than about fifteen minutes. That's not a

49
00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:39.319
lengthy interview. No, and there
we need more than fifteen minutes. And

50
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:43.159
I don't know what the number is. Is it a forty minute, is

51
00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:46.000
it a sixty minute interview? I
don't know exactly what the what I feel

52
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:51.840
would be an appropriate length. Thirty
minutes would be a good sampling of fifteen

53
00:03:51.960 --> 00:03:58.599
is ridiculous. Fifteen stupid because that's
fifteen minutes you could script. It's fifteen

54
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:01.599
minutes that could be well orchest straighted. I think will know with our own

55
00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:05.719
eyes even if it is. And
here's the other thing, they can't really

56
00:04:05.759 --> 00:04:10.159
heavily edit it because again, then
ABC News looks bad like they're trying to

57
00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:13.960
lie to the American people. Yeah, and they say ABC has said they're

58
00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:17.360
gonna also they're gonna release the whole
thing tonight. I think five o'clock is

59
00:04:17.360 --> 00:04:23.680
when they said they're going to air
it, but that they would also release

60
00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:28.240
a transcript of it. Now,
one of the things that I've been reading

61
00:04:28.279 --> 00:04:33.120
over and over again from from a
handful of different sources is that the debate

62
00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:39.199
performance that we saw a little more
than a week ago was really bad on

63
00:04:39.399 --> 00:04:44.319
video. When you saw it with
your own eyes. You were stunned that

64
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:46.920
that's what we're dealing with. But
when you read the transcript, he really

65
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:50.600
doesn't look too bad, and I
thought that doesn't mean anything that's insane.

66
00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:55.560
Granted, both of these guys when
you look when you try to read a

67
00:04:55.680 --> 00:05:00.240
transcript of their words, it makes
no sense. He's got a rally today?

68
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.279
Is it wiscons Consin? Yeah?
And then also here was the other

69
00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:09.319
thing that kind of surfaced over the
holiday was did he have a medical checkup?

70
00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:14.439
KJP said he had not seen a
doctor since the since the annual in

71
00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:17.480
February. Then it comes out that
he did see a doctor after the debate,

72
00:05:17.560 --> 00:05:20.720
but now they're saying it was because
of a cold. Here's a fun

73
00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:25.839
litmus test. If you have to
go to the doctor for a cold,

74
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:30.959
you're too old. You're too old
to be president. Unfortunately for a cold

75
00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:32.800
again, because if a cold is
dangerous, is this is going to knock

76
00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:36.920
you out? You don't have any
pre existing conditions, Chances are you're probably

77
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:44.079
too old to be sitting president.
The what we also found out about the

78
00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:47.800
meeting that he had with governors back
on Wednesday was he suggested to them,

79
00:05:47.959 --> 00:05:51.199
I'm going to get to bed earlier. Yeah, I need more sleep,

80
00:05:51.240 --> 00:05:54.600
so I'm going to get to bed. Don't get to do when you're president,

81
00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:59.639
go to bed. I very little
sleep. There's a reason why that

82
00:05:59.839 --> 00:06:02.879
is a trope of campaign commercials is
who do you want answering the phone at

83
00:06:02.879 --> 00:06:09.399
two thirty in the morning. There's
a reason people age with a quickness when

84
00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:14.480
they're sitting president. Look at Barack
Obama for example. It's because it's stressful.

85
00:06:14.519 --> 00:06:16.000
You don't get a lot of sleep, you have the weight of the

86
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:20.600
world on your shoulders. That is
not something for somebody that has presented himself

87
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:28.519
as Joe Biden. Is its abuse. There are a series of Democratic donors

88
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:35.680
who have said they will withhold money
and big money until and unless the Democrats

89
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:40.160
remove Biden at the top of the
tim Abigail Disney is one of those people.

90
00:06:40.199 --> 00:06:45.519
Says she's going to stop donating to
Democrats period, stop donating to all

91
00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:50.279
Democrats unless he is replaced. She
told CNBC she will stop all contributions to

92
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:55.240
the party until Biden drops out.
She says she means no disrespect. She

93
00:06:55.319 --> 00:06:58.439
says he's a good man, he
served the country admirably. But the stakes

94
00:06:58.480 --> 00:07:00.800
for this election are too high.
She said, if the Biden doesn't remove

95
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:05.120
himself, the Democrats will lose and
the consequences will be dire. She has

96
00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:11.480
contributed almost two million dollars to candidates, committees, and groups in the past

97
00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:16.079
ince nineteen ninety two. Wow,
I just got a clarification now from the

98
00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:20.720
ABC News interview that we expect the
interview is likely to last between fifteen and

99
00:07:20.759 --> 00:07:25.639
twenty five minutes. According to people
who are familiar with the negotiations between the

100
00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:31.360
White House and ABC, Presidential advisors
oftentimes will try to dictate the length of

101
00:07:31.399 --> 00:07:35.399
an interview like this, but because
they say it's going to be aired without

102
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:46.120
edit, that could depend on the
president's answers and George Stephanopoulos's willingness to press

103
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:49.519
for clarification if necessary, or or
follow up questions or that sort of thing.

104
00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:54.480
But again, they said that the
primetime special has been previewed to ABC

105
00:07:54.560 --> 00:07:58.279
affiliates as lasting for thirty minutes.
Whether that means they're going to do a

106
00:07:58.319 --> 00:08:03.519
quick intro, feedback pundits afterwards,
something like that, but we expect it

107
00:08:03.560 --> 00:08:07.519
to be somewhere between fifteen and twenty
five minutes, at least, according to

108
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:11.800
the way they've negotiated it all right. Coming up next, we will catch

109
00:08:11.920 --> 00:08:18.480
up with Hurricane Burrel. Hurricane Burl's
next stop will be in the Yuktan Peninsula

110
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:22.680
today, Mexico, so we'll find
out if it's going to be a threat

111
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:26.759
to Texas as well. When we
come back, Gary and Channon will continue.

112
00:08:26.920 --> 00:08:31.519
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on
demand from KFI AM six forty.

113
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:35.000
The Milwaukee Brewers joined the National League. Okay, they're playing the Dodgers tooner.

114
00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:39.320
I'm like, and that's significant,
but just because I don't Okay,

115
00:08:39.679 --> 00:08:43.840
Gary and Shannon kfi AM six forty
live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Did

116
00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:48.480
you hear about the latest brain eating
amiba death? No? Is this somewhere

117
00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:52.840
in the South, Well it's in
India, so yes, oh, okay,

118
00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:58.559
Well that's different. Three people have
died in India from a brain eating

119
00:08:58.639 --> 00:09:03.440
amba. Fourteen year old boy went
for a swim boom, dead five year

120
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:09.720
old girl and a thirteen year old
girl all from brain eating amba after a

121
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:13.559
swim. Anyway, I'll get some
good news, I hope. So.

122
00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:18.720
Israeli negotiators have traveled to caught her
today. However, you want to say

123
00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:22.120
it. I don't care. For
the first time in several weeks, they're

124
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:26.519
restarting contact over a ceasefire deal that
would potentially end the war in Gaza.

125
00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:33.399
We've seen weeks of deadlock and negotiations
this Israeli. One Israeli official told The

126
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:37.519
New York Times that the meeting is
a preliminary discussion. They do hope that

127
00:09:37.559 --> 00:09:43.320
there will be some more substance of
substantive talks to follow. Hurricane Burl roared

128
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:48.320
ashore on the Yucatan Peninsula this morning. You're the resort town of Tulam,

129
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:54.440
Tullam, Tuloom, to Loom,
whatever you want to say. However,

130
00:09:54.559 --> 00:10:01.559
right caught her cutter Qatar Tuloom,
Talem Tullem. It doesn't matter. Literally,

131
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:05.039
nobody's listening. We could probably burn
the building down live. Actually,

132
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:09.639
somebody wanted to put up before we
get into Burl remind Shannon that although she

133
00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:15.960
and Gary may be there today on
July five, that yesterday, on the

134
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:20.559
fourth of July, Tim Conway and
Moe both had their shows, So they

135
00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:26.000
worked yesterday. That pomps you working
today, Yeah, put out your pipeing's

136
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:31.159
smoking. But they're not today,
are they. I don't know. Well,

137
00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:35.039
were scheduled to work there. Nobody
was going to listen to us.

138
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:43.320
Yesterday people are barbecuing, they were
grilling, they were enjoying the friends and

139
00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:48.000
family and the fireworks. Yes,
I spent nine in the morning. No

140
00:10:48.039 --> 00:10:52.360
one wants to hear about Burrell on
the fourth of July. The resort towns,

141
00:10:52.399 --> 00:10:56.480
like you said, King Kuon to
Loom is just south of King Kun

142
00:10:56.559 --> 00:11:01.000
on the peninsula there. So it
it made land fall and it's going to

143
00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:05.080
probably become nothing more than a and
I say that kind of tongue and scheek,

144
00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:09.000
nothing more than a tropical depression.
By the time it makes its way

145
00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:11.799
across into the Gulf of Mexico.
Eleven people have been killed. Oh yeah,

146
00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:15.000
yeah. There was a guy in
Jamaica that I saw, I interviewed

147
00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:18.240
this morning. He said he's never
seen anything like this. Describe what what

148
00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:22.320
you went through. Wow, it
was terror. I never experienced nothing like

149
00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:33.759
that before. The wind was also
devastated because something like I never seen before.

150
00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:35.600
You just coming like you have a
blower. I just turn it down.

151
00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:39.879
I need a start to blow.
You're nut WHOA I not even know

152
00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:43.519
to explain it. They said that
some of the islands and the Grenadines where

153
00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:50.720
it first made landfall. Ninety percent
of the buildings are gone. Wow,

154
00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:56.440
ninety percent of the buildings are gone. And this was the biggest I mean,

155
00:11:56.440 --> 00:11:58.240
to that guy's point, I don't
know how old he is, but

156
00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:01.799
to that guy's point, there has
not been a Category four hurricane that has

157
00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:07.879
hit Jamaica since nineteen eighty eight.
People stocked up after seeing barrel tear through

158
00:12:07.919 --> 00:12:11.879
the Caribbean. A Lucia. She's
thirty seven, stocked up on food,

159
00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:16.240
hid away in their homes. She
said. We woke up this morning.

160
00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:20.200
Everything was all right. The streets
are a disaster, but we're fine.

161
00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:28.720
In Corpus Christie, they are distributing
sandbags. They distributed ten thousand sandbags in

162
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:35.720
less than two hours this morning.
Yeah, it seems pretty likely that Burrow,

163
00:12:35.799 --> 00:12:39.039
whatever it is at the time,
when it gets up to Texas,

164
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:46.960
will actually hit Texas to some degree. It does lose power without the warm

165
00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:50.919
waters of the Caribbean. It will
lose power as it makes its way across

166
00:12:50.919 --> 00:12:54.639
the Yucatan Peninsula, but the and
the Gulf of Mexico is not as warm

167
00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:58.639
as the rest of the Caribbean,
so it's not expected to regain too much

168
00:12:58.639 --> 00:13:05.600
strength, although it is going to
re intensify to some degree. According to

169
00:13:05.639 --> 00:13:09.399
the National Hurricane Center, a storm
surge could increase water levels by four to

170
00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:16.679
six feet above ground level in that
Yucatan Peninsula area and then throughout eastern Mexico

171
00:13:16.840 --> 00:13:20.600
and the Gulf Coast of the United
States. We're going to see huge swells.

172
00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:26.159
It could cause life threatening surf and
rip current conditions throughout northern I guess

173
00:13:26.200 --> 00:13:33.960
that's northeastern Mexico into the southern part
of Texas also, so not fun.

174
00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:37.200
Not fun. So we're just going
to sit here in our own soup,

175
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:43.600
our own smoky sweating. We are
a gross people out there today. That

176
00:13:43.720 --> 00:13:48.000
is some thick, ugly air.
And it was weird because when I woke

177
00:13:48.080 --> 00:13:50.720
up this morning, there was a
breeze at my house like it was an

178
00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:56.240
oddly it felt like that hair dryer
breeze where it's eighty degrees. Yeah,

179
00:13:56.279 --> 00:14:00.840
flowing a little bit, but man, coming down that new we'll pass into

180
00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:03.960
the end of the valley, just
wash. It did not look good.

181
00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:07.960
Good morning, Gary and Shannon.
Happy fifth of July, thank you,

182
00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:16.679
or I like to call it happy
hungover July. Helloa. So did you

183
00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:18.960
guys know that Danny Trayho was eighty. I mean, at the end of

184
00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:24.039
the day, scraping may not be
the best thing. But if Janny trey

185
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:28.360
Hoo was running for president, I
put my book behind that eighty year old

186
00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:35.039
man. But eighty great looks for
eighty. I don't know about great looks

187
00:14:35.039 --> 00:14:37.639
for eighty. I mean he's he's
still got it. I mean, he

188
00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:39.960
what do you think you're gonna look
like at eighty. I'm not gonna look

189
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:46.840
like a deflated bag. Someone is
afraid of their birthday, aren't they?

190
00:14:48.080 --> 00:14:52.519
Ah feels weird. I was fear
right in the face all day with tears

191
00:14:52.519 --> 00:14:58.960
in my arm. Okay. So, amid the ongoing fallout from the debate

192
00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:05.480
debacle, talk in many top democratic
circles has moved into who would run with

193
00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:09.399
Kamala who would be her running mate, because it seems pretty clear she kind

194
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:13.759
of have to be the one to
take over because of the money issue,

195
00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:20.159
the money, the black woman not
to be usurped by a white man issue,

196
00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:22.200
all of that exactly. So we'll
talk about that. There are some

197
00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:28.679
names that are bubbling up to the
surface. One name is absent. What's

198
00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:31.679
your name? Gavin? Oh,
I think you're going to keep it as

199
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:35.320
a tease and you're going to say, I'll tell you after the break.

200
00:15:35.399 --> 00:15:39.120
Yeah. Gary and Shannon will be
right back. You're listening to Gary and

201
00:15:39.159 --> 00:15:45.679
Shannon on demand from KFI AM six
forty. Hurricane World made landfall south of

202
00:15:45.759 --> 00:15:48.679
Cankun today, about a Category two
hurricane. It's going to lose some strength

203
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:54.159
as it makes its way across the
peninsula. There at least three islands in

204
00:15:54.360 --> 00:16:00.039
the Grenadines report more than ninety percent
of the buildings on those islands are either

205
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:06.320
destroyed or severely damaged. All three
of those within the Granadine Island Chain Borough,

206
00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:08.399
of course, roared into the Caribbean
on the southern end of the windwards

207
00:16:08.399 --> 00:16:14.399
between Saint Vincent and Grenada. The
couple of fires, well a handful of

208
00:16:14.399 --> 00:16:18.919
fires, i should say, burning
throughout California. One of them significant.

209
00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:23.519
One they're concerned about is the French
Fire burning up in Mariposa County near the

210
00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:29.080
entrance to Yosemite. Caltran said that
Highway one forty is going to be closed

211
00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:33.879
from the north junction of Highway forty
nine to the east of the north junction

212
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:38.240
of Highway forty nine Basin Fire east
of Fresno, also over fourteen thousand acres

213
00:16:38.279 --> 00:16:42.240
that's about forty six percent containment.
And then another big fire burning up in

214
00:16:42.279 --> 00:16:47.519
the farther northern part of the state, the Thompson Fire near Oraville, is

215
00:16:47.559 --> 00:16:49.720
at about thirty eight hundred acres up
there. It is going to be busy

216
00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:55.279
at the airport's Sunday and Monday,
that's when the TSA expects to see the

217
00:16:55.279 --> 00:17:00.000
big traveler rush for the holiday weekend. And then tonight, ABC News has

218
00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:06.400
changed course. Last week we heard
the interview with President Biden. Would Aaron

219
00:17:06.519 --> 00:17:10.799
snippets. Now they say the interview
will be shown in its entirety at five

220
00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:14.799
pm hour time on ABC News.
There was a couple of things that happened

221
00:17:14.920 --> 00:17:19.960
politics wise. Joe Biden got caught
on radio interview saying that he was the

222
00:17:19.960 --> 00:17:23.640
first black female vice president. Yeah, I mean, I know what he's

223
00:17:23.799 --> 00:17:26.960
slip of the tongue, slip of
the tongue, I know it what he

224
00:17:27.119 --> 00:17:30.720
did, and you know, I
want to make excuses for the guy,

225
00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:37.039
but it's one of those where you
don't have That's not one that I considered

226
00:17:37.039 --> 00:17:42.039
to be a particular particularly big gaff
how's that well? And then there was

227
00:17:42.160 --> 00:17:49.200
the fourth of July picnic and fireworks
where he appeared with Kamala Harris. What

228
00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:52.839
happened? They both won on this
one. And we give thanks to our

229
00:17:52.880 --> 00:17:59.920
commander in Chief, the President of
the United States, the extraordinary President of

230
00:18:00.119 --> 00:18:07.079
the United States, Joe Biden.
Oh boy, what ho ho? Happy

231
00:18:07.200 --> 00:18:12.400
Independence Day? Here we go.
H that's a better version. Okay.

232
00:18:12.599 --> 00:18:18.400
So there's a there's a handful of
things about this. Okay, whatever happens

233
00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:21.599
with Joe Biden, whatever happens,
if he stays in the race, if

234
00:18:21.640 --> 00:18:25.680
he doesn't stay in the race.
Kamala Harris's profile is even bigger now than

235
00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:27.920
it was a week ago because of
what we saw on Thursday night, and

236
00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:32.680
we talked about it earlier in the
week. I think that she's getting a

237
00:18:32.720 --> 00:18:38.160
bump because he is flailing so badly
that next to him, she looks like

238
00:18:38.240 --> 00:18:45.000
a better option. And I think
that that's what's going on there. They

239
00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:48.400
say that she and her staff have
deliberately ignored most of the calls and texts

240
00:18:48.440 --> 00:18:53.119
coming their way, remaining on the
message about both her support for Biden and

241
00:18:53.119 --> 00:18:57.920
her pride and sticking with him.
But there have been some changes. Only

242
00:18:59.000 --> 00:19:02.839
after the debate did her office update
or schedule to put her with Biden for

243
00:19:02.880 --> 00:19:06.759
fourth of July. She has not
attended the picnic before. She usually goes

244
00:19:06.880 --> 00:19:10.599
to a stop at a local fire
station. And this is an important thing.

245
00:19:10.640 --> 00:19:14.799
You mentioned this before. The White
House and the campaign both know this

246
00:19:14.880 --> 00:19:18.839
isn't a very important seventy two hours
for the president because of the rally that

247
00:19:18.880 --> 00:19:22.839
they, by the way, scheduled
at the last minute up in Wisconsin,

248
00:19:23.559 --> 00:19:27.359
because of the interview tonight, and
then because of whatever the fallout is from

249
00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:33.440
that interview. So remember we talked
about how the governors all descended on Washington,

250
00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:40.599
the worried about Biden and his viability
come November. Apparently the White House

251
00:19:41.119 --> 00:19:48.400
initially offered Kamala Harris. Democratic governors
are on the horn, like coming to

252
00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:51.039
Washington, we got to have an
audience with Joe Biden. We need to

253
00:19:51.079 --> 00:19:52.880
see this for ourselves. What are
we dealing with? And the White House

254
00:19:52.880 --> 00:19:57.000
said, no, you can speak
with Kamala Harris. And they said absolutely

255
00:19:57.079 --> 00:20:02.240
not, but that was their initial
offer. But so she was added.

256
00:20:02.400 --> 00:20:06.480
Yeah, so she was added to
the meeting and she closed it with a

257
00:20:06.559 --> 00:20:11.359
speech or urging unity and sticking with
the president. One of the things that

258
00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:15.160
that Trump is going to do regard
again, regardless of what happens at the

259
00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:18.640
top of the ticket on the other
side, is he's gonna he's gonna make

260
00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:22.519
this about Kamala Harris, and he's
gonna say, listen, that guy's old

261
00:20:22.559 --> 00:20:25.960
and befuddled. And you saw that
in the debate. Now we have to

262
00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:29.559
talk about what happens if he can't
do the job and the vice president has

263
00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:36.000
to step in. He's already described
Kamala Harris as incapable of doing the job,

264
00:20:36.119 --> 00:20:40.559
calls her a phony, he calls
her lot laughing Kamala Harris, which

265
00:20:40.599 --> 00:20:44.599
was different because it used to be
cackling co pilot Kamala Harris. I mean,

266
00:20:44.680 --> 00:20:48.920
all of the things that, uh, those attacks on her are going

267
00:20:48.960 --> 00:20:53.079
to be ramped up because he's going
to make this about the vice president,

268
00:20:53.839 --> 00:20:59.839
assuming or playing on the story that
Joe Biden would never be able to complete

269
00:20:59.880 --> 00:21:06.559
a second term. A Democratic senator
offered a metaphor using the NFL which we

270
00:21:06.720 --> 00:21:17.839
appreciate here. He said that he
likened Biden and Harris to a star quarterback

271
00:21:17.880 --> 00:21:19.960
who needs to be taken off the
field in their backup, he said,

272
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:22.680
we start talking in the huddle,
do we put in the backup QB.

273
00:21:22.839 --> 00:21:26.279
The backup knows our team, the
backup knows the plays the backup has played

274
00:21:26.319 --> 00:21:30.920
in the NFL. The Senator said. The crowd in the stands, full

275
00:21:30.960 --> 00:21:33.079
of passionate fans, starts chanting,
put in the kid from Alabama, put

276
00:21:33.119 --> 00:21:37.680
in the quarterback from Wisconsin. All
just because the backup through an interception earlier.

277
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:42.519
But we know the backup and have
confidence in them. That's fascinating because

278
00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:47.119
you totally want that as a fan. You want to throw in a wild

279
00:21:47.200 --> 00:21:51.480
card instead of the guy who through
the interception earlier. Well, so that

280
00:21:51.839 --> 00:21:56.240
has also prompted a bunch of discussions
about what Kamala Harris would do in the

281
00:21:56.279 --> 00:22:03.039
event that Joe Biden steps down and
Kamala Harris becomes the president. She gets

282
00:22:03.079 --> 00:22:10.039
to nominate a vice president who is
then approved by the Republican controlled House of

283
00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:15.000
Representatives. Now that's a whole other
issue that would put us in more unprecedented

284
00:22:15.039 --> 00:22:21.279
times. But there've already been some
names of people that she would you know,

285
00:22:21.319 --> 00:22:25.599
the shortlist potentially of. Again,
it's the weirdest hypothetical, but Joe

286
00:22:25.640 --> 00:22:29.680
Biden steps down, Kamala Harris becomes
the vice president or becomes the president and

287
00:22:29.680 --> 00:22:33.720
then gets to nominate her own vice
president. Roy Cooper out of North Carolina,

288
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:37.759
Andy Basher out of a governor out
of Kentucky, Josh Shapiro out of

289
00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:42.720
Pennsylvania. JB. Pritzker Illinois,
Tim Walls Minnesota. All of those are

290
00:22:42.839 --> 00:22:49.240
potentials that even Democrats would probably get
behind. Cooper has had a relationship with

291
00:22:49.279 --> 00:22:53.480
Harris that goes back years to when
they were both attorneys general. In a

292
00:22:53.519 --> 00:22:59.000
late twenty twenty interview, after Cooper
won his current term and Harris was elected

293
00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:03.160
vice president, he talked about how
their really good relationship had continued into her

294
00:23:03.240 --> 00:23:07.440
senate years. She would occasionally consult
with him on Trump judicial appointees from his

295
00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:17.079
home state. He says that she
is whip smart. That just doesn't but

296
00:23:17.160 --> 00:23:19.039
sheer knows how to win tough races. They say, he's won the top

297
00:23:19.079 --> 00:23:23.640
office twice in a much more Republican
heavy state and did it while talking up

298
00:23:23.680 --> 00:23:29.240
democratic values. And he's forty six. Yeah, that's the other thing.

299
00:23:29.440 --> 00:23:33.160
Kamala Harris would turn sixty just before
the election. She's fifty nine. Rows

300
00:23:33.200 --> 00:23:37.599
should be I think October is her
birthday. She would be sixty just before

301
00:23:37.599 --> 00:23:44.839
the election. Just think of the
imagery of Joe Biden at eighty two and

302
00:23:45.119 --> 00:23:49.400
Kamala Harris at sixty, the difference
between the two of those going into whatever

303
00:23:49.440 --> 00:23:55.359
November fifth is about to bring.
Because I feel like we I was having

304
00:23:55.400 --> 00:23:57.079
a conversation. I was having a
conversation with John Cobalt last night, of

305
00:23:57.079 --> 00:24:02.039
all people, and we were talking
about eight years ago. We started saying

306
00:24:02.079 --> 00:24:04.000
things like, Wow, we've never
seen this before. Yeah, this is

307
00:24:04.000 --> 00:24:07.880
the unprecedented. And now every week
we now, well, in the last

308
00:24:07.960 --> 00:24:12.000
seven days, we've said it every
single day, We've never seen something like

309
00:24:12.039 --> 00:24:15.400
this before. And we've still got
one hundred and twenty plus days before the

310
00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:18.839
election. And well, I'll find
out how it works together. Hey,

311
00:24:22.400 --> 00:24:25.519
all right, Gary and Shannon will
continue. Oh my gosh, more problems.

312
00:24:25.640 --> 00:24:29.039
Was Diddy? Have you seen the
latest? Oh yeah, this this

313
00:24:29.240 --> 00:24:33.640
broke. This is the latest woman, the latest born star that he may

314
00:24:33.759 --> 00:24:37.640
have sex with people. Right,
it's so gross. I just the grand

315
00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:44.000
jury investigation. You're listening to Gary
and Shannon on demand from KFI AM six

316
00:24:44.039 --> 00:24:48.640
forty. Of course, it is
the big interview tonight. With President Biden.

317
00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:52.880
They're calling it the most important interview
of his life. It will be

318
00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:57.920
released at about five pm hour time. This is going to be all eyes

319
00:24:59.039 --> 00:25:03.920
on Joe Biden whether or not his
mental fitness is up to the level of

320
00:25:03.079 --> 00:25:07.200
a sitting president, you know.
And it's been an interesting look at the

321
00:25:07.279 --> 00:25:15.279
last week to see which media outlets
have blasted conservative outlets for saying there's something

322
00:25:15.319 --> 00:25:18.519
going on with Grandpa Joe, like
there's something he doesn't seem like he's on

323
00:25:18.559 --> 00:25:22.680
top of it like he used to
be, and see the slow progression of

324
00:25:22.799 --> 00:25:26.759
either the New York Times today it
happens to be The Washington Post finally post

325
00:25:26.839 --> 00:25:30.880
articles about oh yeah, there have
been people who've been saying this for weeks.

326
00:25:30.920 --> 00:25:36.640
Today's article from the Washington Post says, quote President Biden, who at

327
00:25:36.640 --> 00:25:40.400
eighty one is the oldest person ever
to hold the office, has displayed signs

328
00:25:40.400 --> 00:25:45.359
of accelerated aging in recent months,
said numerous aids, foreign officials, members

329
00:25:45.400 --> 00:25:48.720
of Congress, donors and others who
have interacted with Biden over the last three

330
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:52.240
and a half years, noting that
he moves more slowly, speaks more softly,

331
00:25:52.279 --> 00:25:56.920
and has moments when he loses his
train of thought more often than even

332
00:25:56.039 --> 00:26:00.240
just a year ago. When do
we start having the conversation of him not

333
00:26:00.359 --> 00:26:06.240
being fit for office right now?
And is there a thought process behind the

334
00:26:06.279 --> 00:26:11.640
Democrats orchestrating a twenty fifth Amendment situation? Move Kamala Harris into the seat and

335
00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:17.799
then have a little bit of momentum
going into the convention. Have it a

336
00:26:17.799 --> 00:26:21.480
little bit of time? Yeah,
yeah, there is something to be said.

337
00:26:21.519 --> 00:26:25.039
I did see an interview this morning, so jobless numbers came out.

338
00:26:25.359 --> 00:26:29.240
The Labor Department said that non farm
payrolls increased two hundred and six thousand,

339
00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:33.720
better than they were expecting. And
when you ask the Labor secretary, when

340
00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:37.559
one of the reporters was asking the
Labor secretary is there any talk in the

341
00:26:37.680 --> 00:26:41.359
cabinet about twenty fifth Amendment? And
she said, well, of course not.

342
00:26:42.279 --> 00:26:48.000
Then that's ridiculous. I mean,
that's ridiculous. You cannot see what

343
00:26:48.160 --> 00:26:52.799
has happened over the course of the
last seven days and at least have the

344
00:26:52.799 --> 00:26:57.079
conversation about it now. I understand
why she denied that. I understand why

345
00:26:57.119 --> 00:27:02.480
she would say, of course,
full confidence in the but you have to

346
00:27:02.759 --> 00:27:06.839
I mean, what we I think
had learned, if you didn't already know

347
00:27:06.920 --> 00:27:11.240
it in the last seven days,
is they're going to keep up appearances.

348
00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:14.759
They're gonna do everything they can to
keep up appearances. And then when you

349
00:27:14.799 --> 00:27:18.559
see the crack, sorry, the
chink in the army, when you armor,

350
00:27:18.039 --> 00:27:22.079
when you see the curtain pulled back
just a tiny bit and the wizard

351
00:27:22.119 --> 00:27:26.079
back there is not the great all
powerful wizard, that's when they need to

352
00:27:26.079 --> 00:27:30.759
say, you're right, this is
what's going on. Here's the discussion.

353
00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:34.240
Who has the balls to raise their
hand in the group chat of the cabinet

354
00:27:34.279 --> 00:27:37.799
and say, hey, we should
talk about this. Nobody nobody has those

355
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:42.599
balls. They're all beholden to the
person who gave them the job exactly exactly.

356
00:27:44.400 --> 00:27:48.400
So I just it's I'd like to
see, you know, maybe Pete

357
00:27:48.400 --> 00:27:56.880
boot edge Edge find his cajones again. I don't think, because not only

358
00:27:56.880 --> 00:28:02.440
are you going again personally against that
per right that Pete would go up against

359
00:28:02.559 --> 00:28:07.039
Joe, but then you have to
deal with the entire party apparatus around him.

360
00:28:07.240 --> 00:28:11.680
But follow the money. If donors
are backing out from giving to any

361
00:28:11.720 --> 00:28:18.079
Democrat, true, that is a
snowball situation that you have to act quickly.

362
00:28:18.279 --> 00:28:22.519
You've got to stop it now.
Yeah, okay, uh p Diddy

363
00:28:22.559 --> 00:28:29.240
Sean Diddy Combs is now being sued
again, this time by a woman who

364
00:28:29.240 --> 00:28:33.400
said that she was employed at his
white party, the Labor Day White Party,

365
00:28:33.000 --> 00:28:37.400
and says that she was expected to
take drugs and have sex with several

366
00:28:37.480 --> 00:28:45.400
guests. Adria English, who performed
in porn movies under the name Omanique,

367
00:28:45.839 --> 00:28:48.640
says in the lawsuit that she has
lived her adult life with the memories of

368
00:28:48.680 --> 00:28:52.880
being trapped in a cycle of sex
trafficking. She never asked to be a

369
00:28:52.920 --> 00:28:57.160
part of and was chosen because Diddy
knew he could groom her. This is

370
00:28:57.240 --> 00:29:03.799
the tenth at least the tenth law
suit filed against Ditty alleging physical abuse and

371
00:29:03.839 --> 00:29:11.319
sex trafficking. Fox News and TMZ
have reported that in this legal document that

372
00:29:11.440 --> 00:29:15.400
her first year working at the party
in Miami, quote had no sinister intent

373
00:29:15.480 --> 00:29:21.480
to requirements for any physical sexual contact
and seemed to be a legitimate employment opportunity.

374
00:29:21.920 --> 00:29:25.680
Therefore, she was invited back the
following year and she took the job,

375
00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:32.319
but she said the third party that
she worked at he he being Ditty,

376
00:29:32.640 --> 00:29:37.519
demanded that she begin engaging in intercourse
with guests, as they had learned

377
00:29:37.519 --> 00:29:44.440
about her past as a porn star
and used it to forcefully coerce her into

378
00:29:44.480 --> 00:29:48.079
sex work. She talked about some
of her memories. The details of the

379
00:29:48.079 --> 00:29:52.000
parties are hazy because of the fact
that she was expected to consume copious amounts

380
00:29:52.000 --> 00:29:57.240
of alcohol abulus at narcotics. The
lawsuit also names a woman who she claims

381
00:29:57.279 --> 00:30:04.039
facilitated Ditty's sex trafficking operation. The
complaint compares her to Ghlainne Maxwell, of

382
00:30:04.079 --> 00:30:08.119
course, who was convicted and sentenced
to prison for recruiting and grooming the victims

383
00:30:08.119 --> 00:30:12.920
for Jeffrey Epstein. The woman quoting
here from the suit was to defendant Combs

384
00:30:12.960 --> 00:30:18.480
as Glaine Maxwell was to Jeffrey Epstein. It added that without the woman using

385
00:30:18.519 --> 00:30:23.279
her inherent goodwill as a woman to
gain the trust of another woman, coordinating

386
00:30:23.319 --> 00:30:29.240
and acting as an avatar for Combs, he would be unable to execute his

387
00:30:29.319 --> 00:30:34.680
corrupt sex trafficking organization so this lawsuit. News of this lawsuit comes at the

388
00:30:34.680 --> 00:30:40.519
same time that Diddy's legal team was
notified by federal authorities in the Southern District

389
00:30:40.559 --> 00:30:45.279
of New York that he in fact
is the subject of an ongoing criminal investigation

390
00:30:45.759 --> 00:30:51.279
that the a federal grand jury is
hearing evidence as part of the investigation,

391
00:30:51.359 --> 00:30:55.920
but no indication that charges are imminent
or even that it would result in charges

392
00:30:56.000 --> 00:31:02.319
necessarily. But a subject of an
investigation is someone who happens to be within

393
00:31:02.359 --> 00:31:06.640
the scope of a criminal investigation,
but not even necessarily the target. An

394
00:31:06.640 --> 00:31:11.599
individual has designated a target when prosecutors
say they are likely to try to get

395
00:31:11.599 --> 00:31:17.480
an indictment from the grand jury against
that person. And then when you are

396
00:31:17.920 --> 00:31:22.559
involved, you're in the scope that
can be upgraded or downgraded. They can

397
00:31:22.599 --> 00:31:26.839
eventually change that make you a target. But apparently they have to send out

398
00:31:26.880 --> 00:31:30.319
a target letter that suggests that you're
the target so that your legal team has

399
00:31:30.359 --> 00:31:36.839
the ability to defend yourself or defend
them. I'm glad you're taking notes so

400
00:31:36.880 --> 00:31:41.119
that you know how to handle this. Actually, Channon, I was pretty

401
00:31:41.119 --> 00:31:45.440
bummed that you guys weren't on yesterday. I listened to the BBC instead of

402
00:31:45.519 --> 00:31:51.079
the Katy BBC. That's a fun
pivot. We should just do it the

403
00:31:51.160 --> 00:31:53.279
show with an accent the time.
I don't do accents. Well, you

404
00:31:53.359 --> 00:31:56.240
do it. I think you could
do it. I do think I could

405
00:31:56.319 --> 00:32:01.279
do it perfect coming into work today. It helps a heck of a lot

406
00:32:01.279 --> 00:32:06.640
of us. Do appreciate you.
Hector here truck talking to Mississippi. Yeah,

407
00:32:07.039 --> 00:32:13.279
happy July. Yeah, we should
do honks today. People should call

408
00:32:13.319 --> 00:32:16.079
in and honk for the show.
If they're listening. I think that's a

409
00:32:16.079 --> 00:32:21.160
great thank you, Hector. Yeah, thank you for the I love a

410
00:32:21.200 --> 00:32:22.799
honk. It's a honk on Friday. Did you used to do that when

411
00:32:22.799 --> 00:32:25.119
you were a kid, Trying to
get truck drivers to honk their horn by

412
00:32:25.119 --> 00:32:29.319
going like this, I take my
shirt off, You take your shirt off,

413
00:32:29.559 --> 00:32:31.200
and just get those nipples right up
there on that window. Didn't really

414
00:32:31.240 --> 00:32:36.240
work. No work as much as
I had expected. Talk about trafficking,

415
00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:43.440
talk about it. Disappointing display.
Actually you got a pretty good set.

416
00:32:43.960 --> 00:32:53.039
Thanks You're welcome for a man could
set of honkers on me? Are you

we were six and nine. But
nobody's here that I police us, So

419
00:33:04.359 --> 00:33:08.200
I feel like it's just gonna be
an off the rails kind of day.

420
00:33:08.400 --> 00:33:12.920
Does anybody have matches? Up to
this point, it's been mostly on the

421
00:33:13.039 --> 00:33:15.359
rails, like three out of the
four wheels, or on the rails.

422
00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:19.039
Yeah, well, that's all gonna
change, folks. We'll talk about heat

when we come back, whether you
